1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: The Around the NFL podcast. I didn't really understand today's 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:11,319 Speaker 1: segment before we started, so never a good time. From 3 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: the Chris Westling podcast studio, It's Around the NFL. I'm 4 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 1: Dan Hansa's heroes here, Greg Rosenthal, Mark Sessler, and yes, 5 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: today's segment, I'm excited to have the conversation UM about 6 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: spicy v Frisky as teased on the Flagship show on 7 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: Sunday night. Mark did address me privately in the newsroom, curious, 8 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: slash apprehensive about to hold it, about just how long 9 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: it would be, UM, and I said, just let it 10 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: flow through, you bro. Just sometimes you gotta let the 11 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: segment have a free flowing conversation. I hear like when 12 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: Greg says free flowing conversation, I know what that means. 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: What does it mean? I? First of all, this is 14 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: the long way for you to start the episode. Why because? 15 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: Because because what happens when a segment goes totally south 16 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: and just lands like a hot air balloon filled with 17 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: rocks on a countryside. You'll you'll get texts saying sort of, 18 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: you guys, I don't really think that you understood what 19 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 1: was going on there. We've got to be a little 20 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: more focused. So I'll go out of my way and 21 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: say what what was your thought for this? Because there's 22 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: no lead up to it. And then you turn around 23 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: and say it's like, oh, you're overly concerned about the segment. 24 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: You're not free flowing enough. I will. I'll be as 25 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: free flowing as you could possibly imagine. We got this 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: Mark today. I like it well, I mean, because it's 27 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: just simply twist and bend into the narrative that fits 28 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: your Wait a second, wait a seconds. I'm just saying 29 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: you came to me and said you were you were 30 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: you had questions about how the segment was going to go, 31 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: and I said, let it flow through you. I'm gonna 32 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: start recording our conversations. I think that's the next Absolutely 33 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: excited about what's occurring. I mean, I think that's the 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: next step in our relay ship, is only having conversations 35 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: that are recorded, most of them on the podcast, but 36 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: even outside the podcast record them. I think it makes 37 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 1: a ton of sense at this stage. And also, Mark, 38 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: don't get mad at me, of course not because there's 39 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: a different you have a different battlefront to deal with, 40 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: and it's uh, it's a different colleague of ours. If 41 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: you remember Sunday show, Um, after a Brown's highlight. You 42 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: had some things to say, Well, someone else had some 43 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: things to say back. Let's listen. What is happening? And man, DJ, 44 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: you want to talk about skin of your different? I 45 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: mean DJ worked for the Browns and it didn't go 46 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: great from what I recall, So I mean he moved 47 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: on to the Ravens, which is a more successful Daddy's 48 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: laughing at just laugh at them? Wow, Sessler? Really after 49 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: after I've spared you from from all of our heat. 50 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: First of all, so many things wrong with this whole thing. Okay, 51 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: First of all, I was with the Browns for two years, 52 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: one of which was a ten win season, which I 53 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: don't know if Sessler's familiar, having been a fan of 54 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: that team for a long time. Those don't come around 55 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: very often. So that was the first year. The next 56 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: year four and twelve, we're gone. I came to the 57 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: Browns from the Ravens. So he's got his timeline. I mean, 58 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: buck like, I felt like he's the most knowledgeable of 59 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: the around the NFL guys. I feel like he's the 60 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: most respectable. And the sad thing is even as ridiculous 61 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: as this is he doesn't lose his standing because that's 62 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: just how bad the rest of the group is. So, 63 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: you know, just just disappointing the way around from Sessler. 64 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: Not want to let facts get in the way a 65 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: good story. Oh yeah, let's move on. If we have 66 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: any other clips from un respected podcast, maybe uh, if 67 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: Panetta has something to say, let's let's run that in 68 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: the future. Let's just keep the around the NFL stuff 69 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: off here. This is a respectable program. I don't want 70 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: to sell it with those guys. By the way, they 71 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: don't even they don't even send that podcast that anymore. 72 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: He just comes in here and they do it because 73 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: it's part of the contract. The bikes aren't on anymore. 74 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: But we caught that with some parabolic microphones. Yes, Mark 75 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: your response, I can't stay out of these um quasi 76 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: uh feuds, but I and I not. That was not 77 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: what I was aiming for there, But I would mean 78 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: he took a shot at him. It felt like you 79 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: were showing a little bit of your Brown's fandom too. 80 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: You were upset in that moment. Well, because the only 81 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: clip that I have from that moment in their um 82 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: their excellent broadcast. I'd imagine other otherwise, was just giggling 83 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: at the way the game ended. I didn't hear any 84 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: I didn't hear words. I just heard giggling like that's 85 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: you and I So I I found you were offended 86 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: by that missing another kick because I haven't thought about 87 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: it since I made that comment. But um, I would 88 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: say for someone that has respected the acumen is so 89 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: high as DJs that he professionally made the decision go 90 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: to go from. I assumed he went from the Browns 91 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: to the Ravens because he was becoming more intelligent. He 92 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: went from the Ravens to the Browns during that era, 93 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: some type of disconnect mentally. That's that's I'm asking a 94 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: second question now. So spice, see if you're spicy, you're 95 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: just spicy. Spicy food stays spicy for the most part. 96 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: If yes, we'll leave it there. Good response, though, but 97 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: I will table my issues with you because that does 98 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: me no favors to continue down that path. Well, I 99 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: just I didn't think that I had done anything wrong, 100 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: but I want to redirected for sure at someone else. 101 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: That's that's a well well weathered strategy you need. You 102 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: want to redirect that sessy energy elsewhere. So yes, we 103 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: will be hitting frisky or spicy in the NFL as 104 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: we enter week six. But and of course the Thursday 105 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: night football preview, which I know we're all pinching ourselves 106 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: Prime Time Washington at Chicago. But before we do any 107 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: of that, let us hit the news. Do you follow 108 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: the Eagles with all? Paul, Yeah, I mean, my gosh, 109 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: you guys are the number one, the only undefeated team 110 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: wa to real way to really back. Not the number one, 111 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: just four, the number one, not the number the number 112 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: one warding to Dan hands us Power Rankings today. Thank 113 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: you Paul Rudd, and the Eagles are no longer number 114 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: one in the Power Rankings. That was from that Kelsey 115 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: Brothers podcast. Um, and you could check out my thoughts 116 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: and Steve Weish's thoughts who filled in for a under 117 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: the weather Connie Wolf. That's why she's not on today's 118 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 1: show on the Power Rankings podcast, Man Rudd is plugged in. 119 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: Rudd is plugged in on the Power Ranking I was 120 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: so confused about what was happening in that drop until 121 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: the very end, and then I should have known it's 122 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: Paul Rudd given his boy Dan some pop right right 123 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: justin Maybe could have used some video there to give 124 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: the context there's necessary, but you know, justin that that's okay, buddy, 125 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: that happens. We're all good. Uh, Matt Rule is out 126 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: in Carolina, as we kind of predicted on the Sunday 127 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: Night Show. After a one in four start to the season, 128 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: the Panthers fired Rule on Monday. The team announced defense 129 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: of passing game coordinator slash secondary coach Steve Wilkes takes 130 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: over his interim coach. Of course, Wilkes had spent one 131 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: season as head coach of the Cardinals before getting whacked there. 132 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: Some might say unfairly so. David Tepper is the owner 133 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: of the Panthers, and David Tepper is sick of losing 134 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: and sick of the team that he bought four billions 135 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: not being relevant. He was asked by a reporter what 136 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: constitutes success for the Panthers moving forward? You've mentioned the 137 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: phrase getting over the several times. What does that look 138 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: like to you? And it's it's winning, uh, winning, winning, winning, 139 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: He possify that as far as the number of wins, 140 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: is it a winning more this year than you did 141 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: last year and have the appearance of winning more than 142 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: you did last year? Looking like you're going to win 143 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: more than you did last year. You know that definition. 144 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think we're over the hump the 145 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: tiger blood explanation from Temper, who also noticed noted that 146 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: Greg part of the reason why he decided to make 147 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: the move now he didn't feel the team was competitive 148 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: and the effort was where it needs to be in 149 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: a blowout loss to the Niners, and he saw too 150 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: many damn people wearing red in his stadium, the colors 151 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: of the forty Niners. Matt rule history in the NFL. Yeah, 152 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: quite a boring um two plus years as head coach. 153 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: Like I thought they actually had some things going schematically 154 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: as an offense that first year. That got you thinking, okay, 155 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: like there might be something here with the way he 156 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: coaches up offense. But it really went into a shell 157 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: the last year and a half and it was tough 158 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: to watch as the defense got better the offense got worse. 159 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: He didn't really seem to have a problem connecting with 160 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: his players, That wasn't it. It was just like such 161 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: a blah higher. Ultimately, people wanted me a rule and 162 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: David Tepper, you know, they sort of talked about like 163 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: he won the battle for Matt Rule, but it ended 164 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: up like that was not a battle that you wanted 165 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: to win. Matt Rule came in with the Temple and 166 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: Baylor rebuilding scenarios that maybe Temper thought when they really connected. 167 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: I mean, there were these long features about how Temper 168 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: and Rule had this great connection when they met, and 169 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: it was just like he was like, I'm gonna get 170 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: my guy. Well no, but so all these stories seemed 171 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: to start that way, right, all these great meetings behind 172 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: closed doors. I saw the real guy, the real coach. 173 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: And I think Matt Rule is a personable guy. I mean, 174 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,599 Speaker 1: from what we know he's been on our show, is 175 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: seemed like a good dude. But but I'm not saying 176 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm not it just that I think it's a lesson 177 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: in the It's another example of high fluting college coach 178 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 1: learns that the NFL is a completely different job, and 179 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: also it's an impossible job when your quarterback play gets 180 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: worse and worse. And I know they tried to court 181 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. That didn't work. They thought about Deshaun Watson, 182 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,239 Speaker 1: that didn't happen. I mean, I guess had you gotten Stafford, 183 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: you'd be in a better position. I'm not sure they 184 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: would be with the way this team is built in general, 185 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: just what had the way the franchise is. You cannot 186 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: survive into year three with the quarterback play they've had. 187 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: And Temper, I think is gonna learn because yeah, I 188 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: mean that was all his decisions. Well that's but that's 189 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: they also could they went, they tried to get guys 190 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: to get them Donald and Baker we're planned vs. So 191 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, mart say. One of the thing that 192 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 1: like Temper Tepper watching that press conference right there, I've 193 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: been attached as a fan to a team with some 194 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: ownership issues, and the first thing he did was give 195 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: rule a sixty two million dollars seven year deal that 196 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: agitated the rest of the owners. And now when I 197 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: hear him talking, now he's got to talk football and 198 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: explain what he's looking for. I think you learn as 199 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: an owner that it's not easy just because you were 200 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: a billionaire hedge fund guy or whatever it is you 201 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: did somewhere else. This is a completely different type of 202 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: job and it takes a lot of mrs sometimes to 203 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: get it right. And this was a big miss. It 204 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: was a big I mean, the results are the results. 205 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: I think there is some I guess this would come 206 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: off as a defensive bit of Rule, but there's to 207 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: me some chicken or eggs stuff going on here, because 208 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: if you don't have a quarterback, and not only are 209 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: they not I know we had Teddy and we've had 210 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: those conversations in year one, Greg, but they were an 211 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: average offense and like one of the worst defense in 212 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: the legal year one, so average offense, and we've talked 213 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: about their defense did get better under his tenure, but 214 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: the offense cratered when Sam Donald was brought in and 215 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: played poorly then got injured. Then you go in and 216 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: you bring in Baker and Baker stinks too, and it's like, yeah, 217 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: maybe Matt Rule can't coach at this level, or maybe 218 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: he was just in a terrible situation. And that's this 219 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: is what happened. What Tepper said, I think that was 220 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: telling in the press conference was he wanted the balance 221 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: between coach and GM to be more evenly balanced in 222 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: the future. Rule did whatever he wanted. That was the thing. 223 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: He gave Teddy a contract guaranteeing him two years that 224 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,599 Speaker 1: when no one else was going to give him that 225 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: amount of money to do it. And then decided to 226 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: just eat the second year out of nowhere and then 227 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: gave Darnald a contract and trade that no one else 228 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: would know. They gave him an extension, they gave him guaranteed, 229 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: and so like he was doing things that no one 230 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: was making him do, and he was ultimately in charge 231 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: of personnel. You got the feeling they still haven't fired 232 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: Scott Fitter. They said that's our GM right now, but 233 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: he might not be in the future. And tempers made 234 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: some pretty big mistakes. I mean, he is in litigation 235 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,359 Speaker 1: because of a half built practice facility in South Carolina 236 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: that's literally there and is abandoned, and they're having you know, 237 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: a big problem with with the state of South Carolina 238 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: right now. And they oh, by the way, they still 239 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: don't have an indoor practice facility, which almost every NFL 240 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: team has. So he's he's come up against some things. 241 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: And I never like when you hear like, we want 242 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: to do the opposite this time around, you know what 243 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean. I mean about the ownership where you hop 244 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: Scotch every two years between and Dandy your thing. You're right, 245 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: like you could defend rule because he didn't have a quarterback, 246 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: but the ultimate lesson for anyone taking one of these 247 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: jobs is if you don't have a quarterback by year three, 248 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: you're out right right you need it. You need it, 249 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: and they never got it. And the draft, even with 250 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 1: some misfortune with this past draft class, it you know, 251 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: there wasn't a set up well for them to go 252 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: get somebody then he could tie himself to a young 253 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: quarterback that maybe would have bought him more time. It 254 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: just wasn't happening. Part of it was Stafford and Deshaun 255 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: Watson didn't want to play there, right. You know, Stafford 256 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: made it pretty clear he did not want to be 257 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 1: on the pants, according to reports, and he made the 258 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: right decision because you know, he has a Super Bowl 259 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: ring in Los Angeles, by the way, that half built 260 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: facility in South Carolina. It's pretty symbolic for where they're 261 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: at as an organization right now. Probably also has squatters, 262 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: big plans, there's big money behind it somewhere, but all 263 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: of there's a stall right now, and it's just like 264 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: what is happening? You feel a little fitteve Well, who 265 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: had a great run as defensive coordinator in Carolina. I 266 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys remember that, like five years 267 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: ago or so, UH taking over a situation that just 268 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: feels like you're kind of wasting your time for the 269 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: next stop. UH. In other news, NFL referee Carl Cheffer's 270 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: explained himself or attempted to UH the shocking call um 271 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: on Monday Night Football in which UH, Derek Carr gets 272 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: taken down on a sack by Chris Jones who yanks 273 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: the ball out, falls down because well else he's gonna 274 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: go and they throw the flag and the crowd and 275 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: arrowhead and good job by them. I really enjoyed the 276 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: way the Kansas City home crowd really gave it to 277 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: the officials for like ten straight minutes. He he was shaky. 278 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: Did you see that clip of him announcing a call 279 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: a little bit later? And he was shaken, I think 280 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: because of the crowd reaction and because of Andy Reid 281 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: yelling at him for well, it doesn't feel good as 282 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: a human. So you have that situation, and it's obviously 283 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: a lot conversation right now around the protection of the 284 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: quarterback the to a situation obviously in play. But this 285 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: has been going on, UH for years now, where we've 286 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: talked about the personal fouls and the hits of the quarterback. Uh. 287 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: There was a report I saw this morning that the 288 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: NFL is going to re examine the situation. Should this 289 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: be something that you can challenge or take a look 290 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: at before you decide to make game altering calls. The 291 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs they won, even though they were on the wrong 292 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: side of that call. The Falcons on Sunday they lost 293 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: and maybe because of Grady Jarrett getting called with another 294 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: bogus penalty on a sack of Tom Brady on third 295 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: down late in the their loss to Tampa Bay. Brady 296 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: was on the his Let's Go podcast, Let's listen in 297 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: a lot of talk today, a lot of conspiracy theories. Um, 298 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: was it roughing the pastor Jim, He's funny, it was? 299 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: It was? It was. It was a long hug, a long, 300 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: unwelcomed hug from Grady and he was in the backfield 301 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: all so, as I said after the games, I don't 302 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: throw flags, and what I do throw his tablets. I 303 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: didn't have one accessible with that. He had a hell 304 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: of a game. That's I'll leave it at that. Greg. 305 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: That's your free flowing conversation. That's pretty good. That was good. 306 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: It's also I believe at halftime of the Monday night 307 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: football games there maybe in the pregame, so people should 308 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: check that out there you go. Um, you know, I 309 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: have a little bit of an issue with Brady on this. 310 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: He's forty five, he is really the face of the NFL. 311 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: He's arguably the most famous NFL player who's ever lived. Um, 312 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: just like in terms of like the game, like just 313 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: come out and say it, like, yeah that you know 314 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: that call went for us and it it It helped 315 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: my team win a game. But obviously that might be 316 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: something we want to look at because Grady Jarrett and 317 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: the Falcons are fighting hard and made a big play there, 318 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: and maybe we should make sure we're getting a play 319 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: like that. Right. Why does he playing the cute winky 320 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: uh you know grab butt with Jim gray Card there? 321 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: Going by the way, he's signed a massive you'd ever 322 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: want up play the grab butt with Jim gray Card? 323 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: He signed a prodcasting deal, So you'd like to think 324 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: that he'd have some critical thought already about things like 325 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: this and give us a fair take. But I just 326 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: don't like that he has these pre written lines that 327 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: I suspect he didn't write like I feel like his 328 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: social media crew. Uh you know he came in that 329 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: was that was a pre written he knew the question 330 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: was coming in. It's because they were gonna bang the 331 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: tablet bit and the long hug. The long hug thing 332 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: was Greg's Patriots fandom is just simply about four thousand 333 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: miles to Brady fan, and I'm a Bucks fan on 334 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: some level, I'm rooting for him to play well. But 335 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: the way he handled this, you know, it's it's not 336 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: a big deal to me, but it's not great. I 337 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: just don't know what the NFL's going to do. I 338 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: I these calls are going to happen, and you could 339 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: change the rule about the um landing on the quarterback 340 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: potentially like the full body weight, and that's what was 341 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: called here in theory. They could pull back almost never 342 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: pull back on these safety rules because I think the 343 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: full body weight part of the rule is extremely difficult 344 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 1: to officiate. Basically it is um. But like terrible calls 345 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: like this are going to happen. So the only question 346 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: is whether you can have someone as the extra official 347 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: who's already there and they're already making some changes from 348 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: New York and from the stadium, the sky judge where 349 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 1: things get changed and it nothing was challenged and they're 350 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: changed quickly. They're like, oh, actually we fix something. Can 351 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: something like this because because because officials are gonna make mistakes, 352 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: it's impossible. Like Patrick, the thing that bothers me is 353 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: people get so mad at the officials and like Patrick 354 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: Mahomes makes big mistakes every game, these officials, it's impossible. 355 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: We've been on the sidelines for games. You can't. You 356 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: can't get it right, Like they're not gonna get it 357 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: right like that consistently. It's impossible. It's like I'm with you, 358 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: like I I don't think it should be ref must 359 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: get it perfectly right, or all of Arrowhead Stadium is 360 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: ready to verbally Lashman's like to get reviewable. It's just 361 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: simply that simple. Quickly, you don't need to stop down 362 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: the game. You don't have to worry about pace of play. 363 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: Have New York look at it and buzz down and 364 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: be like, no, we're not gonna go We're picking up 365 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: the flag. That's it. Why is that so hard? And 366 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: hopefully hopefully these two incidents happening, but over twenty four 367 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: hours is the impetus, but you know it probably will be. 368 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: And this is annoying but this is the way the 369 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: league works. We see it all the time. It's gonna 370 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: take some team getting robbed in the playoffs and ending 371 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: their Lombardi dreams for something to happen, because it feels 372 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: like the only way rule changes happen now is when 373 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: some team gets ripped off in January. Well then they 374 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: can a month later go to the little Competition committee 375 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: and slap each other on the back and announce a 376 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: rule change. We we think that'd be a quick one. 377 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: But that play last night I think had enough weird 378 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: things going on with you know, the ball coming out 379 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: was was part of it too, And they even answered 380 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: after the game that it was the full body weight 381 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: thing and he did seem to put his arm down, 382 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: which is looking for. But I've read the rule. It's 383 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: there's no like exact right answer. And we like to 384 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: think that common sense they would have fixed that call immediately. 385 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: But that felt like it could have been a four 386 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: minute thing. I like Joe Bucks uh comment on it? 387 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: Uh about Christian is he supposed to disappear. That's exactly 388 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: what he's supposed to do to not get a flag. 389 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: So that seems dumb and they should change it. What 390 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: else was dumb on Monday Night, Davante Adams super frustrated 391 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: and we get it, and you could hear uh the 392 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: Monday night football recap uh Greggy put out for around 393 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: the NFL of the Raiders nine loss to the Chiefs. 394 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: What a game. One of the games of the amazing game. 395 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 1: It kind of made up and made up for the 396 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: Thursday night game which opened weeks week five and horrific form. 397 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: And then we got a great close at the end 398 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: of the on on the back end there. But anyway, 399 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: Adams after he has a rightfully overturned reception that would 400 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,719 Speaker 1: have maybe won the game for the Raiders with their 401 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: kicker and automatic mode overturned. Then he runs into Hunter 402 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 1: Renfro on the final route on fourth and one and 403 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: then the game's over. So he's hot, he's furious, he's upset. 404 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: Some random cameraman walks in front of him in front 405 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: of the tunnel and he shoves him to the ground 406 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: and just walks away. It's caught on cameras. He's getting 407 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: killed on social media, and he did reach out. I 408 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: don't know if he reached out to the guy, but 409 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 1: it's a freelance worker for ESPNS. Monday Night Football. He 410 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: tweeted almost immediately trying to get his arms around it. 411 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 1: Sorry to that dude, and then he at his locker 412 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 1: disgusted as well. But just not a great look mark 413 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: for Adams who just looked basically like a bully. I mean, 414 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: that's a bully behavior right there. Yeah, because the size 415 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: differential and everything else, and you're a football giant, football 416 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: player and pads. This is a essentially a media individual. 417 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: I mean I it's emotional, it's going on. We don't 418 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: know what's inside his head. For me, it's like you apologize, 419 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: you settle it somewhere if you need to, or on 420 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: the phone on face not just like say send something 421 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: on Twitter. I hope the guy sees this, bro, you 422 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: kind of that was a bad job. Just connect with 423 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: the guy. It was not forward. I think that the 424 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: fact that he shoved him while he's wearing, while he 425 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: has he's holding all this equipment, and then he just 426 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: walks right past him after shoving it to the ground, 427 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: that was you. That was the part of the thing 428 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: where I think he could face discipline if he had 429 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: sort of realized what he did in the moment and 430 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: then like help the guy out there. Or whatever that 431 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: looks like when a Dan's Irish goodbyes out of the exactly. Um. 432 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 1: And by the way, there was an incident report that 433 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: was filed, and I just liked the wording in it 434 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: because it was a it was a it was bully 435 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: behavior and he pushed the dude down, but it wasn't vicious. 436 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't like, oh my god, is that guy gonna 437 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: be Okay? Uh, here is the language and the incident report. 438 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: The victim made arrangements for private transport to the hospital 439 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: for treatment, at which time he called police. The injuries 440 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: are pre preliminarily thought to be non life threatening. Okay, 441 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: let's come down. Let's not get too legitious here. We 442 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: don't know dan crappy moment. We don't know what, we 443 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: don't know the condition of his body. All right, let's 444 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: pause right here and take a break. We'll be right back. 445 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: In other news, Ron Rivera stepped in it. On Monday. 446 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: You know, the Commanders are one in four heading into 447 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: Thursday night football. All the other teams in the NFC 448 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: East are bawling out five and old Eagles, Cowboys and 449 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: Giants four and one. So he's facing some uh heat 450 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: and rightfully so for the commanders not doing much. And 451 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: when he was asked about the difference between Washington and 452 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: the rest of the thriving NFC East, like I said, 453 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: Ron rivera stepped in it. Why do you think the 454 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: teams in the division her father had at this point quarterback. 455 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: The truth is that this is a quarterback driven lake. 456 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: And if you look at the teams that have been 457 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: able to sustain success, they've been able to build it 458 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: around a specific quarterback. You know, Quarters of Nation is 459 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: not feeling good about that because he Ron River is 460 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: wearing a really like nice Kashmere maroon quarters zip I 461 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: called a three quartersip um with a button down on 462 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: uneath it, and he he looks like art museum curator 463 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: and he just buries his quarterback. So tough, tough moment 464 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: for Quarters of Nations. He tugged down. You might have 465 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: to say he's wearing a three quarters if he doesn't 466 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: deserve the distance. Yeah, uh he You know, there was 467 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: some extra context to that. He like praised Carson Wentz 468 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: at one point in those answers, and he was trying 469 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: to and he apologized to today saying he doesn't want 470 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: to be a distraction and he created distract. Spoke with 471 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: Carson privately right by that the way he climbs only answered. 472 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: But part of the problem was his answer made no 473 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: sense because his the way he was trying to answer 474 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: it was saying that the continuity that they've had at 475 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: quarterback in their systems is what led them to greater success. Okay, 476 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: we have Daniel Jones quarterback in his third in his 477 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: third system. He just started his new system, uh five 478 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: weeks ago, the same time as Carson Wentz, uh and 479 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: and Scott Turner. By the way, he's been there a while. 480 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: The offensive coordinate for Watchington and uh Dallas is four 481 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: and one with a backup quarterback. So it's like none 482 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: of it made it. I don't know what it is, 483 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: or maybe I kind of do, but you know, you 484 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: can't really put your finger on it because you're not 485 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: in the buildings. But Carson Wentz will just wherever he goes, 486 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: he's gonna take fire, and sometimes faster than you realize. 487 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: And India was by the end of the season. Uh 488 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: here it's by you know, not even Halloween. He's getting 489 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: kind of like roped into these type of conversations Washington, 490 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: d C. And the Pentagon. He was pointing more to himself, actually, 491 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: because I can't think of a you know, old school 492 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: veteran coach around the league that seems to verbally care 493 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: less about going and getting that young quarterback. If anything, 494 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: it's I want to I want Alex Smith, I want 495 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: you know, fill in the blank, low level guy that 496 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: we they wanted Stafford to Stafford wanted. But like we 497 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: just talked about what happens to coaches that do this well, 498 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: I think this is an example of Ron not listening 499 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: to his quarterback, because if he had listened to what 500 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz said back in July, he might have acted 501 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: a little differently. As we all know, decided to really 502 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: go ahead and start to take command. He didn't take command. 503 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: Rivera has not taken command. No, he has not, and 504 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: he could find himself not commanding a roster too much 505 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: longer if things don't change for Washington. Uh. In other news, 506 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 1: speaking of stepped in it, um Keenan Allen at the 507 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: end of the Chargers game. And I know you guys 508 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: were a little softer on Brandon Staley in the aftermath 509 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: of this than I was, But I was not into 510 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: him going for it on fourth and two in his 511 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: own territory up two points in that situation, and Keenan 512 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: Allen was an agreement. He was inactive with a hamstring injury, 513 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: and he tweeted w t F are we doing? And 514 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: then he deleted that tweet. But then he had a 515 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: follow up to Wheat in which he was like, you 516 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: know something, all the lines of I have it right here. 517 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: So glad he missed that because man, man man, So 518 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: he's calling out his coach for not knowing what he's 519 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: never the follow up tweet if you if you delete it, 520 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: just go go, go silent, go offline for two days. 521 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: And if you're following what's going on and hearing the 522 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: whispers and the reporting around the Chargers, it doesn't seem 523 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: like Brandon Staley has a great command of this locker room. 524 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen is a highly respected veteran. UH Staley addressed 525 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: the Twitter SNAPf who this week, Keenan's heart is with me, 526 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: is with us, and UM, you know, to me, I've 527 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: understanding of where he was at in that moment because 528 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: he's not with his team there in the fire. That's 529 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: a money down that he's used to being out there. Um, 530 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: which makes it a lot better for us, and uh, 531 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 1: it's just part of sports. And um, you know we're 532 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: gonna become closer because of it. Uh, we already became 533 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: closer this morning because of it, and we're going to 534 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: keep it moving to Denver. Speaking of guys in trouble, Wait, 535 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: what what have you? What you said? There were reports 536 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: that he doesn't have command of the locker room. Where 537 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's not. He's getting ready to take command. 538 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: There there are some reports out there. I've seen them. 539 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: I'll have to I'll have to survicem. I didn't know that, um, 540 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: but that things weren't so hot in Chargers Lynn. Did 541 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: you see those reports? Marks? There were whispers I remember 542 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: talking to a couple of weeks ago that there was 543 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: bubbling up that maybe you know last year nice when 544 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 1: we got something, Greggy, I got the pulse you'd have 545 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: something if you actually gave the Just wait, I can't. 546 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: I was ready to cite sources here because you're ambushing 547 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: me in the middle of the podcast. But trust me, 548 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: and there was something out there that's I will find. 549 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: It was news to me that he's taken some heat, 550 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: and uh, it doesn't surprise me. Though, because there's probably 551 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people surprised you because you didn't know 552 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: about it, and Zeuser did. I used to know a 553 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: guy who would talk about being the a T insider, 554 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: and then he would not only double source it, he 555 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: would triple source it. And now he's doing that. You know, 556 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: he's fallen hard. I tell what you see. See he's hitting. 557 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: Greg likes to be like, oh, nothing can hurt me, nothing, 558 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: I deflect all but that one that was a knife 559 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: into the risk. It's more if you come after me, 560 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, and more importantly journalistically, if you've got to 561 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: come after Brandon Staley, you gotta back it up with 562 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: some facts. You thank you, Paul Rod. You nailed this one. Greg, 563 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: you got it. You do it. You know, it's like 564 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: the I love this, It's like the Stephen A. Smith thing. 565 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: Oh reports, you know, watch out, alright, just out, Staley, 566 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: watch your back. Just just give me a minute. I 567 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: will dig this up and maybe my producer Justin can 568 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: help out as well, because we need to get the 569 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: sourcing right for Greg to admit you just got got 570 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: you got got in the NFL news business, We'll see, 571 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: aren't we a little surprised that Keenan Allen wouldn't be 572 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: completely and intimately familiar with the way this team operates 573 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: on fourth down. He's been probably a hundred meetings where 574 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: Stale he said, this is what we do in these situations. 575 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: He's not a sports reporter from like eyewitness news. That's 576 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: that's just discovering. I think it goes to Dan's uh 577 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: point that when he was upset with the going for 578 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: the fourth down. Players are the same as fans, are 579 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: the same as journalists. They've seen football operated in a 580 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: certain way forever and they've just accept that that's the 581 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: right way to do things. And anyone, whether you like 582 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: it or not, who's gonna go against that. There's gonna 583 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: be a lot of people that don't like it. I'm 584 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: saying that he's been closer to a team that operates 585 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: the suite this way than of players, coaches, or the 586 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: rest of the earth. I mean, this is what the 587 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: Charges did all last year. They're doing it again. Um, 588 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: all right, I think that's everything in the news. Yes, 589 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: that's what's happening in the news. Are we taking a 590 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: break here? Justin let's take a break and we'll right back. 591 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: We're back, all right. I have surface some of the 592 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: reporting out there. Uh. There was a bad loss to 593 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: the Jaguars in Week three in which only two team 594 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: captains were available to speak to the media, Herbert and Eckler. 595 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: None of the defensive captains spoke of the media. Uh, 596 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: and apparently they left the stadium very quickly. A former 597 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: Charger scout had tweeted out that he was hearing some 598 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 1: rumblings from inside the building that the players were not 599 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: buying into the coaching staffs messaging, and then to follow 600 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: it up the way to fired scout Brentley Weissman sent 601 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: one tweet out, we're going with that as a story. 602 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm not accepting that. And then Keenan Allen took to 603 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: Twitter just this week. I don't know if you heard. Oh, 604 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: we talked about it and openly called out his head 605 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: coach's decision making. So, uh, that's where we're at. There's 606 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: layers to this, and we haven't we haven't gone full 607 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: reporting yet, but we do have a fired former scout 608 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: um who said he heard some rumblings. Well, I'm just 609 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: saying that context is important. It wasn't like Ian Rappaport, 610 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: you feeling that things are hunky. Dorry there, or it's 611 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: probably more likely that Alan, in concert with some of 612 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: this reporting, slash whispers might speak to a disconnect. I 613 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,959 Speaker 1: guess it hadn't occurred to me that they have like 614 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: locker room problems. Yet what about it after this reporting? 615 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: That does it occur to you? Nowiseman doesn't do enough 616 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: for me? Why do you again? Bentley Wiseman so much? 617 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: He could be a man of absurd integrity, right, but 618 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: he was literally fired by the team. But what's the 619 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: what are the circumstances behind? We'll have to find out. 620 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: He also worked for the Patriots, Raiders Oregon and hey, 621 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: as always have to go Ducks. Let's let's uh check 622 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: in on something else before we get to the T 623 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: and F preview. We know, obviously, um, what's going on 624 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: with certain people having guys? This is Mark needs a 625 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: guy update? All right, Yes, Mark needs a guy. It's 626 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: a feisty show. If you're just tuning in, The following 627 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: players are not an option. Taloah who Foga safety, San Francisco, 628 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: Tarik Woolin cornerback Seattle, Jack Jones cornerback, New England. So 629 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: those are the three players off the board. As Mark 630 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: continues his quest, uh for a guy. Any developments Mark 631 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: since Sunday night, as you've had a chance to ruminate 632 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: and think about I need a guy. They got guys, 633 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: I need one. Any updates, I will be presenting a 634 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: short list for your for you to accept or design. 635 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: I know how it works, but I will be on Thursday, 636 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: UM announcing a short list. Okay, well that's I'm glad 637 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: I can talk to you before this, because there was 638 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: a guy that came to mind might be one of 639 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: your guys, all right, yeah, because he's you know, he's 640 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: kind of he's relatively under the radar. He's on the 641 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: Browns UM, which a team that you focus on UM, 642 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: and his name is Jeremiah Coamoa. But he was really 643 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: one of the lead guys on my making this year, 644 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Wuskamoa, who's who's a very well known player, but 645 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: I've really been pumping him up for a long time. 646 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: Made him sort of a centerpiece of the making the Leap. 647 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: So if that was someone marksidering, First of all, I 648 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: can't believe Greg called him under the radar. I mean, 649 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: he was special last year and he's becoming even more 650 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: so now he's been hurt a little bit here and there. 651 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: But I mean you can have him break if you're 652 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: if you if this is what fuels you, there's there 653 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: are clearly voids in the other aspects of your life. 654 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: This is what you need, you can have it here 655 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: talking about out now he's going to other aspects. Why 656 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: this is so important to list Allnoah who found a safety? 657 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 1: San Francisco, Give me the music. Tarik wool In cornerback Seattle, 658 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 1: Jack Jones cornerback, New England, Jeremiah Oosa Corramoa linebacker, Cleveland 659 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: off the board with more to come. That's fine, that's 660 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: just the tease. Speaking of tease. Washington and Chicago. The 661 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: Commanders and the Bears play on Thursday Night Football this week. 662 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: Hold on to your Jim Gray. But because we got 663 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:34,720 Speaker 1: a command off, a command off, because we know Carson 664 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: Wentz is getting ready to take command. Wow, very newsy show. 665 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:46,280 Speaker 1: But listen to Matt Eberflus just today on Justin Fields. 666 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: The guys are just getting used to it. You know 667 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: that you can feel Justin you know, comfortable where he 668 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: is right now on the offense. He's take command and 669 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: now decided to really go ahead and start to take command. 670 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: We have commanders Bears in prime time. Two quarterbacks taking 671 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: command who will fully grasp there on the pregame shows 672 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: a command like they could do the funny graphics, they 673 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: can show the thing. Maybe you could be on a boat. 674 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Anyway, Washington at Chicago and a reminder. 675 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: This TNF preview is presented by Prime Video, the new 676 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 1: exclusive home for Thursday Night Football. Mark your thoughts on 677 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: this ball game. If anything, I think Justin Fields is 678 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: coming off his best game. I don't know what that 679 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: means week to week for the Bears, but passing wise, 680 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: I thought he looked better than he had in the past. 681 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: There's nothing around him. I mean, the number one receiver 682 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: on the Bears has ten receptions. No one else has 683 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: more than nine. They just they've they've had games where 684 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,399 Speaker 1: he's had you know, seven, eight, nine completions. The game 685 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: against the Giants was a hot mess. But I thought 686 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: Fields played better last week. He had like a fifty 687 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: two yard run that was erased by penalty, where you 688 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: kind of see what Justin Fields can do in the 689 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: open field. I mean, really, to me it maybe a 690 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: better system would be a better quarterback. I don't know, 691 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: they're they don't have a good line in front of him. 692 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of like hopes that if 693 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: the Commander's got hot, because I feel like they've been 694 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 1: really streaky. They've had a quarter or two where if 695 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: there they get buried early and then Wentz has to 696 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: bring them back. You can see what Washington's offense is 697 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: capable of, and I would give this. I think Washington, 698 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: basically for Ron Rivera, needs to do this to save 699 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: their season. They are in hot water if they fell 700 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: in this one. And this is a sitting duck Bears 701 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: team potentially on offense. I mean, if Washington falls here, 702 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: you are talking about the floor falling out. And yet 703 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: I I'm really struggling to pick this game just because 704 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: I I feel like the Bears have a little something 705 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: something that the Commanders don't have. Like if if this 706 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: game is close, and it probably will be at the end, 707 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: I can just imagine the Bears pulling out an ugly 708 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: win and feeling good about themselves, and the Commander's finding 709 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 1: a Minnesota right finding a way to lose. The Bears 710 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: protected justin fields incredibly well against Minnesota makes me wonder 711 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: a little bout about that Minnesota defense. I mean Justin 712 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: Fields was cooking steaks back there, Dan cooking steaks and 713 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: packing cake doing math. I don't know, there's there's been 714 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: a lot, a lot of phrases for getting great past protective, 715 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: but he needs it because no one holds the ball 716 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 1: longer or takes longer to make a decision to throw 717 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: the ball than Justin Fields right now. But he did 718 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: throw the ball pretty well. And and like Mark said, 719 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: I think if you can just get his legs a 720 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 1: little more involved, he's led them in rushing a couple 721 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: of times lately. Good tidbit here, uh from the NFL 722 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 1: research team, The Commander's pressure QB is on the highest 723 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: percentage of dropecks of any team in the league. And 724 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: by the way, did you happen to see Monte's sweat 725 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: and what he was doing um in that game on Sunday? Uh? 726 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 1: He was all over the Titans, um And who were they? 727 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: It was the back it was the left tackle that 728 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:16,439 Speaker 1: replaced Teller Luan correct, Yes, Dennis Daily, he was having 729 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: a hard time of it. He should change his name 730 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: to Dennis Snappley because he was getting beat on a 731 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: that that's how often he was getting beat human. Other producer. 732 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 1: Drew is actually leaving the studio and he took off 733 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: his headset and he's leaving. Other people are booing, getting 734 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: the thumbs even Sean Kelly's giving you the thumbs down. 735 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 1: That's the most positive man in the world. Oh, Drew 736 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 1: did come back. That's good. Yes, Dennis Daly was getting 737 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: hammered by Montes switch the highest pressure rate in the 738 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: league because they haven't been a good defense. It hasn't 739 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 1: like added up to be there yet, right. That was 740 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: the thing with the RIVERA quote was like quarterbacks in 741 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: our way, your team had one of the worst defenses 742 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: in the league a year ago, in your below average 743 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: in every possible metro this year too, and you're a 744 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: defensive coach. So it's not just the quarterback. Yeah, it's 745 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: a it's a tough game to pick um. It is 746 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: the according to the Power Rankings V thirty and it's 747 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: coming off the Colts Broncos games. So I'm not happy, 748 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: Alain happy. Maybe we'll be surprised though. I think the 749 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 1: NFL's sweating to thinking. But Fields is. I feel like 750 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 1: Fields is the because we know Wentz has this ability 751 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: to get hot, and we saw what he did with 752 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: Dammy Brown connecting bea plus with multiple touchdowns. It's not 753 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 1: that he's not productive. So let's sell this one. Let's 754 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: sell this one, baby. Uh. The Commanders can score points. 755 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz can potentially create a scenario where they scored 756 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: thirty points and justin fields like we've been saying, coming 757 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 1: off his best game, with some confidence, a little bit 758 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: of swag, maybe Baby, we end up getting a game 759 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: it's fun to watch, to make up for what happened 760 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: last there's two desperate teams. It won't it won't be worse. 761 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: I will guarantee it. It'll be better than it cannot 762 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: be worse. That was one of the worst games I've 763 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: ever watched last week. I I agree, it's a big 764 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if you can be a cornered commander. 765 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: I mean you can be. You're bad. They're because they're 766 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: cornered right now, Mark's right. This feels like a world 767 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: history is filled with corners like Commanders that eventually were 768 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: corner I don't know about Lyne in the sand, if 769 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: that's the right word. But if they follow the one 770 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: in five and losing in Chicago in uh in an 771 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: Island game, maybe their only Island game all year. It's 772 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: gonna get ugly that there's no overt plan. Ron Riverican 773 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: point to as a commander at that point, and a reminder, 774 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 1: you can watch this game on mobile with NFL Plus. 775 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: There you go, all right. That was the t NAF 776 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 1: preview presented by Prime Video. The new era of Thursday 777 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 1: Night Football is officially here, and it's only on Prime Video. 778 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: Let's finish the show by Yes, we have been talking 779 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: about this off air for weeks. I feel like we 780 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: even in erect what would have been a reckless decision, 781 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 1: almost made it a segment during our live show in 782 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 1: London at the O two Forum before thinking better of it. Um. Yes, 783 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 1: we were not at the top of our game mentally 784 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: at that point. Um. But Sunday we teased it it 785 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: is finally time to play frisky or spicy kind of frisky. 786 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 1: Justin's really pumped up back there today. I like it. 787 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 1: He brought the a effort. What is that from Justin? 788 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 1: I do not know? So he did not directed Eric 789 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: to find sounds and Eric, well, Eric did an excellent 790 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: Eric Day Weekly Snappily, Eric, a question for you, because 791 00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: we just we just basic Justin, why don't we turn 792 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: off the mic for a while. But just but he 793 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: had broken in to say, actually, I didn't do that 794 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: one of my He was silent and justin you know, 795 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: I love you. But let's just let's go quiet for 796 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: a little bit and just think about some stuff. Uh. Frisky, 797 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: What is frisky? What is spicy? That is the question. 798 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: I'll give my definition as I give my first team. 799 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: I think frisky is a team that is annoying. They're 800 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,799 Speaker 1: a team that you look at your schedule in week 801 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: one and you go, that's backpocket win. And then that 802 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 1: team starts the season and you notice that the teams 803 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: that are supposed to be handling them are struggling to 804 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: defeat them. Sometimes they don't even beat them. So the 805 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons, to me, are an example of a frisky team. 806 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: I don't think they're spicy because I don't think they're 807 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 1: ready to make that leap to being a team that's 808 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 1: really fighting for a playoff spot or giving anyone a 809 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,720 Speaker 1: scare in the NFC South. But at the same time, 810 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 1: I believe them to be a team that's gonna be 811 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: a tough opponent week after week. Frisky the Falcons, I 812 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: think I feel like they are the textbook definition of frisky, 813 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,439 Speaker 1: especially the way that you described it. I do see 814 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: a scenario though, and this is and I'll have to 815 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: find out who would come up and fit this scenario 816 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: that you could that you could be spicy even if 817 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: you aren't that good, or even if you have no 818 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: chance to make the playoffs. Somehow, you just there's a 819 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: level to the interest, and there's a team in my 820 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: mind where you are spicy even if you're not like 821 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: great at football, even if you're gonna finish seven and ten, 822 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,760 Speaker 1: you could be spicy just because you're so darned tasty, 823 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? What's okay? I think I 824 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: think the Seahawks are spicy, because yes, the Seahawks are 825 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: frisky in a way. To me, they're more spicy, And 826 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean I think they're gonna go to the playoffs, 827 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: but they're like the number one offense in the league 828 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 1: right now. I mean, you don't get much more spicy 829 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 1: than a Geno Smith, you know, big time throw or 830 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 1: a Geno Smith like press conference and answer to me, 831 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: they are very spicy. You don't get much more spicy 832 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,479 Speaker 1: with an over seventy zaddy than Pete Carroll like they're 833 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: spicy and and it doesn't mean they're good. They disagree 834 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: with that just because my definition is different. You're not 835 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,719 Speaker 1: spicy unless you're really sending some shock waves out there 836 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: and you have a chance to make some big noise. 837 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 1: Like for me, the Cowboys are spicy. The Cowboys are 838 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: a team that they they exceeded past frisky and now 839 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 1: they are a team that has a defense that's given 840 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: up one touchdown in each of the first five weeks, 841 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: that has big time playmakers both in the front and 842 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 1: the back end on defense, and yes have Dak Prescott 843 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 1: waiting in the wings getting healthy as the team wins. 844 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 1: They are spicy to me different completely and with you 845 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: with the Falcons, I'm with you on the Cowboys. I 846 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 1: the Seahawks is frisky, but I also see another team 847 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: that's frisky, because I think frisky is less embedded. Um, 848 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: there's a newness to it. It's kind of like you've 849 00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: had a crazy night out, you left your credit card 850 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: at the bar, You've given your social Security number to 851 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: a band of teen robbers, you don't know what could happen, 852 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 1: and the world is new for you suddenly. And that 853 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 1: is my frisky team. The New York Jets where we 854 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: were three weeks ago, same old Jets. You got Joe 855 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: Flacco out there getting his butt kicked. Then suddenly that 856 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,800 Speaker 1: there's that inciting incident. The win over Cleveland was something 857 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: that came so far from the wilderness and was so 858 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: improbable that it kind of changed everything that would happened 859 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 1: for the Jets. Then suddenly incomes Zack Wilson to complement 860 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 1: the rest of this rookie class. The ten years now 861 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 1: you might look at this rookie class and say everything changed. 862 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: Now you got Robert Sala suddenly not a zombie on 863 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: the sideline, swing at the grass. He's starting to pump 864 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: his fists, and they're gonna go play Green Bay, and 865 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: you could go from frisky to spicy, just like a 866 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: last New York team did. If you go into Green 867 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: Bay and you handle your business. Zack Wilson in his 868 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 1: own way, maybe not numbers wise, but leads an offense 869 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: and outduels a depressing Packers team. That's how the Jets 870 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: flipped the switch. I mean depressing fields a little bit strong. 871 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: But here is we are. We are right church different 872 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 1: pew on that, because I do think the Jets are 873 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,879 Speaker 1: right there. A win in Lambeau sends them to uh 874 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: spicy territory. But I don't think they're frisky right now. 875 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,319 Speaker 1: They've graduated into this world in between. The Jets are 876 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 1: feisty right now. The Jets are wait, so it's frisky, 877 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 1: spicy or feisty. There's a feisty and the Jets are. 878 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: They qualify in this weird like nether world of where 879 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,760 Speaker 1: they are. They were on frisky, they moved to feisty. 880 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: Now they get the blinker on and they're ready to 881 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 1: turn onto spicy boulevard. All they gotta do is beat 882 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. And I just gotta say, this is the 883 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 1: the best possible outcome for this Jet season. And I'm 884 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: even saying any of this right now, right because we're 885 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 1: four weeks to remove from you making fun of Robert 886 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: Sala and like being annoyed at the answers he was giving, 887 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 1: making fun of those fust worrying for you, I worry 888 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 1: for you now putting too much brightness on them, like 889 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 1: just not suddenly you're ready to take them and put 890 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,239 Speaker 1: them into category above. All the other teams were talking 891 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: the receipts. We were kind of mocking that like that 892 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:21,919 Speaker 1: he was being That's all I'm saying, And so we're 893 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: I'm confused though, because feisty to be would be lower 894 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: than frisky. Yeah, so I'd rather to me, it's just like, hey, 895 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 1: you might pop up in a given week and you're 896 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: not you know, you're not a doormat like the Bears 897 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 1: if they win this week especially, but the Bears to 898 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,399 Speaker 1: me have shown some feistiness. They're not frisky, then they're 899 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 1: definitely not spicy. They get three and three. I think 900 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 1: it's again, this is a segment where you let it 901 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 1: flow through you. Yeah, and for me, um, there is 902 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:55,799 Speaker 1: a world in between frisky and spicy, and for that 903 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,359 Speaker 1: it's fisty. Now they're clearly frisky at the very least. Oh, 904 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 1: they are, absolutely. I believe they graduated from frisky after 905 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 1: yesterday but Sunday, but even they to to Mark's point, 906 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:08,919 Speaker 1: maybe I got to calm down a little bit. Maybe 907 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: the Dolphins were, you know, just turn it down. The 908 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: third court, third string quarterback question about the Cowboys. I 909 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: don't know, it's circling back, but I think it gets 910 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 1: to the heart of frisky and feisty and spicy and 911 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 1: all the things. What does expectation have to do with 912 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: the term, and what does sort of the team's history 913 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,839 Speaker 1: have to do with the terms. Because the Cowboys are 914 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: sixteen and six in their last two seasons. You know, 915 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,439 Speaker 1: they won twelve games last year. Uh, they are America's 916 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: team there, nobody's underdog. Yes, they've been playing with the energy, 917 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: they've been playing with a backup quarterbacks. Can I answer 918 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 1: a question? I think that gets to feisty, but to me, 919 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 1: they're sort of not. They're not They're not frisky because 920 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 1: they're the Cowboy. I don't think that they belong in 921 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: this exercise because they are. They were the I know 922 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: the Eagles have bubbled up, but they spent much of 923 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: the off season as a division favorite. They were a 924 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: playoff team a year ago, and they don't fit with 925 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:11,359 Speaker 1: the rest of the teams. Were kind of talking about 926 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,400 Speaker 1: here where they're kind of they're not coming from the wilderness. 927 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: They're the most on brand advertised team out there. With 928 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 1: that somehow it is. I mean, if Cooper rushed or 929 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: were to be their quarterback the rest of the year, 930 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: I'd stick him into this. I mean they were on 931 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 1: this podcast anyway, mostly buried as an aftertho summer and 932 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 1: seventh in the NFL coming in really, but they're not 933 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,560 Speaker 1: an unknown. We're talking about teams that are like, maybe 934 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: a team can maybe a good team can be right. 935 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 1: And things changed from even August what you're saying, Mark, 936 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 1: Like when Dak went down, everyone, everybody, and I mean 937 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: everybody said they were done. Every single person on this 938 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 1: network and elsewhere said, oh the cat, look how bad 939 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,600 Speaker 1: they looked in the first place in Week one against 940 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: the Bucks and then Dax bro Dak broke his thumb. 941 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: And now we got Cooper Rush coming in here. They 942 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 1: are cooked and guess what, they weren't cooked, so that 943 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,360 Speaker 1: because they got knocked down into like this, they're cooked status. 944 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,399 Speaker 1: They to me get into this bucket. And they are 945 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:12,279 Speaker 1: absolutely spicy. They are spicy if we want to shove 946 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: them into one of these categories. For the most part, 947 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 1: it's spicy, but they also have a super Bowl level 948 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 1: defense and there's no other team that we're talking about 949 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: here with anything like that on either side. Way, what 950 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 1: was that, Mark? Spicy? If you're spicy, you're just spicy. 951 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: Spicy food stays spicy for the most part. Did I 952 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 1: actually say that? Yeah? That was not a cut up 953 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: thing that was god this season, especially Mark, I could 954 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: always count on you if I feeling a little bit 955 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 1: self conscious, like maybe I shouldn't bring up the Jets. Mark, 956 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 1: you will bring up the Jets this year. Um, so 957 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,880 Speaker 1: I'll bring up the Browns. And they are frisky to me. 958 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 1: And that's this is like they're frisky in a frustrating 959 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: way because of everything. Their three losses have been super annoying. 960 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 1: But you don't go into Cleveland or welcome Cleveland in 961 00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 1: and think, oh, we're just gonna walk over these guys, 962 00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: because they will give you a game. They have Nick Chubb, who, 963 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: by the way, I understand the way a game plays out, 964 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 1: and I understand Jake Brisket has been playing really well 965 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: this season, But how does think Chop only have seventeen 966 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: carries on Sunday. This guy can't be tackled because so 967 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: many of them just like ended in the end zone. 968 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:21,479 Speaker 1: So dr But I see what you're saying, he ended, 969 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: he stands for more carries by going I'm saying he 970 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: had half the amount of touches that Brissette had throws 971 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: in this game. And it's just like or carries, I 972 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 1: should say. But anyway, I think the Browns are frisky, 973 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 1: you said frustrating, and I made a category for them 974 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: frustrating to bizarre levels because I don't find them frisky. 975 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 1: That's really outside the bounds of this segment. But you 976 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 1: created that, wasn't that's within the bounds. It's got a 977 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 1: y at the end. Well, but you're going to sign everything. 978 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: It also fits in the lower third graphically on the 979 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: YouTube show. I don't think they're frisky when we work 980 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: on something for the lower third for marks ting to 981 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 1: bizarre level. I don't think they're frisky when you can 982 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 1: count on them to blow it. They The reason the 983 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 1: Jets are in this category or even talking about the 984 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: Jets is because of the Browns. The reason we're talking 985 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: about the Falcons because they ran for two d two 986 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: yards on the Browns. But I can count on them 987 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,760 Speaker 1: to blow it, like the Lions, who I think are frisky. 988 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 1: It was the Sunday with any of these categories. Before 989 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 1: Sunday they did sure not. Now, okay, I don't think 990 00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 1: the brown I'm not burying the Lions up one terrible offensive, 991 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: but I mean they're one in five. When are they 992 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 1: Do they strike you as frisky or spicy? The Lions. 993 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 1: I think they're frisky. I think they'll get back to 994 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 1: think of their entire team for Sunday win a game. 995 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 1: But you don't have to win to be frisky, you 996 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 1: could just be. I mean at some point, being one 997 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: in seven, you're not frisky. They're one. I mean they're 998 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:42,319 Speaker 1: a mess right now. Okay, Uh, the Browns don't fit, 999 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 1: and I think they're a great uh team to talk 1000 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 1: about in this exercise. Thank you for now. I have 1001 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: to stop after every line because because Ai Mark speaks 1002 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,359 Speaker 1: about everything, the points are always good. Yeah, they really are. 1003 00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,279 Speaker 1: I can't really explain why. But the Browns don't fit. 1004 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 1: I mean it might be partly because they made a 1005 00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: loathsome transaction this offseason. Um that made me not root 1006 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 1: for them in general. But I also would say the 1007 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:13,839 Speaker 1: way they've played this season is not frisky, ficy or spicy. 1008 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: They've just been a surprisingly great offense that is dumb 1009 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 1: and finds ways to lose. So I don't find that 1010 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: that doesn't sound frisky, fighty or spicy. That just sounds 1011 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 1: like disappointing to Mark's point, frustrating to bizarre. Like I 1012 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: gotta say, I think that's where I because they just 1013 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:35,839 Speaker 1: they just seem like an annoying team to me because 1014 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 1: they're not living up to their potential. They should be 1015 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,919 Speaker 1: four and one to their potential, Greg you would bury 1016 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: this basically, no chances flash. I was incredibly wrong in 1017 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: that preseason analysis, like I was about many teams like 1018 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 1: we all are. You could see within a week or 1019 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: two they were not a bottom five team. That they 1020 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 1: do feel like they should be four in one, and 1021 00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:01,080 Speaker 1: that there's some bad juj you going on. Well, there's 1022 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:05,240 Speaker 1: also Jacoby Brissette three interceptions such leading directly to three losses. 1023 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,200 Speaker 1: But it's weird because he's kind of like the poor 1024 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,600 Speaker 1: man Zino this year. He ranks in the top six 1025 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 1: or seven in basic if you if you took those 1026 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,319 Speaker 1: street throws away, I guarantee there are four and one, 1027 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: maybe five and out. I think I had a little 1028 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 1: higher hopes for the Browns hanging around before the season, 1029 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: so this feels like who they were. It's just the 1030 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: But you're right, the way they've lost the games makes 1031 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 1: it harder. But I just think they are frisky. They're like, 1032 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,920 Speaker 1: don't mess with the Browns, don't sleep on the Browns. Okay, 1033 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: so you wins, you guys. Put this to the Seahawks 1034 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 1: and frisky, fix your defense a little, and then they 1035 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: can really get what was the Patriots. The Browns play 1036 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots this week, and I think and if Frisky Bowl, 1037 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I think the Patriots are clearly frisky, 1038 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: maybe even feisty. Okay, they go to Green Bay, they 1039 00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 1: lose their backup quarterback immediately that thing goes to overtime. 1040 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: They beat the team of a t l in a shutout, 1041 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 1: another frisky team according with a third string quarterback. In 1042 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 1: the week before that, they're going back and forth with 1043 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: the Ravens in like a weird offensive shootout where they 1044 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,640 Speaker 1: actually have a lead uh late in that game. To me, 1045 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,719 Speaker 1: they're very frisky because they don't really seem like a 1046 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: good team, but you don't know, you don't want them 1047 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 1: on your schedule. They're definitely not spicy. I think is 1048 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:34,399 Speaker 1: because my frisky category um Jets, Brown's, Falcon, Seahawks lines. 1049 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 1: They're all teams that they've been kind of fun to 1050 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: watch and they they they entertain you, even if they 1051 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 1: don't always win. I can't say that I've enjoyed watching 1052 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots this season, but at the same time, I 1053 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 1: understand what you're saying. There are definitely boxes that are 1054 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: being more fights. The actually Bill Belichick in his press 1055 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,880 Speaker 1: conferences fight that's good. They're not fun to watch, So 1056 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 1: you're right. I think frisky better be. What are we 1057 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 1: doing calling something frisky if there's no enjoyment attached to it? 1058 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,240 Speaker 1: I think Massachusetts people in general are feisty. I didn't 1059 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 1: realize that growing up. I just thought that's how how 1060 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 1: everyone was, and then I was just like, nope, me 1061 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: and all my friends are jerks. That's just um what happens. 1062 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 1: But you extend friendship to each other, so there is 1063 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 1: some that is a drop moving forward, Alright, any other 1064 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 1: thoughts I've shared all of mine. I gotta say. I 1065 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 1: think I think that we have the giants and giants 1066 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: I don't even I, Oh, please, Greggy, they're frisky, you 1067 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 1: know why not? Why is it with you and the giants? 1068 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 1: Why can't you just I just think they're frisky. There 1069 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 1: are a lot of teams that start out fast and 1070 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: end up with eight winds, and those, to me are 1071 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:46,360 Speaker 1: frisky teams. And I still kind of think that's where 1072 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: the giants are headed. But we'll see. And Mark, oh, 1073 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 1: that's from the live show. Oh my god, um mark 1074 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 1: your category one more time, going to have it because 1075 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 1: I know one more team that belongs in the Browns. Nope, 1076 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:02,919 Speaker 1: which is right? Put the Lions or if you want 1077 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: frustrating to bizarre levels, Browns and Raiders, because we had 1078 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: to the Raiders. The Raiders to me, they're not last night. 1079 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 1: Last night was a night two weeks ago they ran 1080 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: the ball a ton. I kind of like that last night. 1081 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 1: Had they pulled that off. We're talking about something at 1082 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 1: that point because they're close. They're close, but right now 1083 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: I can't really put them into frisky or spicy. I 1084 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 1: don't want to watch them every week necessary. I kind 1085 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 1: of like watching them, Uh you know. They they made 1086 00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 1: the Broncos look interesting for one week. That was the 1087 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: most watchable Broncos game they've They have found a way 1088 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 1: to lose insane games to the Titans, the Cardinals and 1089 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. But they're they're not far away. They're certainly 1090 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:40,959 Speaker 1: the best one in four team in the NFL. Alright, 1091 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: it's not let me just I'm just gonna my last thing. 1092 00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: I just because I want to give them. It's the 1093 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 1: team of around the NFL. It's been a rough go 1094 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 1: since we name them that, But I just want to 1095 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 1: go through the five weeks, and I understand Sunday was 1096 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 1: terrible thirty five loss to the Eagles, who are five 1097 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 1: and oh win over Washington, loss to Minnesota four and one, 1098 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 1: five shootout loss to Geno m v P and the 1099 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks before a meltdown in New England. And they are 1100 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 1: hardly the first team to go up to New England 1101 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 1: and get humbled by getting just outcoached, uh and lose 1102 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 1: twenty nine zip. I think there's enough. There's enough there 1103 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: to give them frisky status. So they have their bye week, Okay, 1104 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 1: come out of it. They go to Dallas, one of 1105 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: the team that's not going to give up forty five 1106 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 1: points while they score forty five. So I'm saying if 1107 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,640 Speaker 1: they fall to one in five against the Cowboys and 1108 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 1: then you've got the Packers, and it matters how they play. 1109 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 1: It's not just whether they win or lose, but at 1110 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: some point. So so, if they were one in eight 1111 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 1: but they're losing games thirty eight to thirty nine, you're 1112 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 1: still frisky. Get them to me, But that's my I 1113 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 1: don't need them to be winning a lot of games. 1114 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 1: Also be like a gnat, just like they're gonna give 1115 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 1: up Dan Campbell and this staff. I'm gonna believe that 1116 00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna come out this bye week clin there. I 1117 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 1: think the Patriots game hurt me because I wondered if 1118 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 1: this journey that they're they've been on was more of 1119 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 1: an aberration than who they are week after week. But 1120 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 1: they didn't have DeAndre Swift, so I will extend, you know, 1121 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 1: more time to them. I don't think they care that 1122 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm doing that, but we'll see what happens. Actually, they're 1123 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:20,560 Speaker 1: right now like pipe. Thank god, we got an extension 1124 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 1: all right there it is. I don't know was that how? 1125 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 1: What was what was going on there? Um Grave Digger, 1126 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 1: come on back, because I know you've been in kind 1127 01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,120 Speaker 1: of time out. Some of your bits didn't land earlier too. 1128 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: But did that segment did that make any sense? That 1129 01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 1: segment a little bit? Yeah? Yeah, you know. I will 1130 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:40,959 Speaker 1: say I agree with you Dan on the feisty being 1131 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: between frisky and spicy, and I don't think it has 1132 01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: anything to do with the definition. It just kind of 1133 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 1: sounds like a combination of But you said, you said 1134 01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots are feisty, but that they're haven't they're not frisky, 1135 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 1: so it's very confusing. Well, no, maybe it's not leveling 1136 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 1: up for you. It's just different diagram. You kind of 1137 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 1: won me over on the frisky thing with the Pats 1138 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 1: a little bit. I was more hung up initially on 1139 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 1: like the they're not like exciting or fun to watch. Well, 1140 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 1: let's be real, we we keep getting caught in logic 1141 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 1: traps with this this, and so you just have to say, yes, 1142 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 1: I think you won me over with that last thing 1143 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 1: you said. Bailey, he's frisky, he's feisty, he's people in 1144 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:23,919 Speaker 1: New England need to calm down with like, hey, let's 1145 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: start the zappy kid. There's not they're hungry for a 1146 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 1: quarterback conscious birth day. I feel like that's a name 1147 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: that he at some point gave to himself, Bailey Zappy. 1148 01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy. All right, So I think we covered a 1149 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 1: lot in today's show. We touched on the DJ DJ 1150 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 1: feud and we don't need to go on any further 1151 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,120 Speaker 1: because that just gives them something interesting to talk about 1152 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: on their show, So we'll just leave it where it 1153 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 1: is it fuels them. Yeah, we talked about everything in 1154 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 1: the news. Mark needs a guy, update, we have something. 1155 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:56,959 Speaker 1: We have a development coming up on Thursday. You said, there, 1156 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 1: if I remember, if I really had an ugly source 1157 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 1: battle related to the chargers, that was that. That was 1158 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 1: not pleasant, but that's the way it goes sometimes. And 1159 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: then frisky, spicy, feisty, and the other category disappointing everyone, 1160 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 1: frustrating to bizarre level or something. And then the TNF preview. 1161 01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 1: We've covered a lot, we've said it all. Mark, you 1162 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 1: get the final word today. I love you both. Wow, 1163 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: that was not a soundtrop Do you believe it? I do, 1164 01:02:34,560 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 1: say he the call spe
