Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. This has nothing to do with the show,
Speaker 1: but I was watching Sports Center with the Dan nts
Speaker 1: and the anchor was interviewing page from WWE and talking
Speaker 1: about the rivalry with I think Becky Lynch, but asking
Speaker 1: a question as if you were talking to Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 1: about this game against the Cowboys this weekend, page, how
Speaker 1: would you sum up your rivalry with Becky Lynch? And
Speaker 1: then she gave great pause like, oh my god, like
Speaker 1: this is a serious question, and I went, oh my god,
Speaker 1: what do you see happening this weekend? Um, well, it's
Speaker 1: in the script. I know what's going to happen. She
Speaker 1: hold it up. Yeah, yeah, it says right here, I win,
Speaker 1: and then she'll win the rematch and then I win. Oh,
Speaker 1: welcome to the program. Already in progress. As you can tell.
Speaker 1: I remember when the wrestlers came to Sports Center. We
Speaker 1: did commercials and the Undertaker, and look they were great
Speaker 1: Stone Cold Steve Austin, great commercial that I got to
Speaker 1: do with him. Great people. But it's difficult for me
Speaker 1: to watch Sports Center as you're going to cover WWE
Speaker 1: as if it was the NFL. So Paige, where do
Speaker 1: you think you could take advantage of Becky Lynch in
Speaker 1: the in the ring? Yeah, Paul, it's like covering Broadway.
Speaker 1: It's like covering a Broadway play. What do you think's
Speaker 1: gonna happen here in the third set? It's like covering
Speaker 1: circ to Sole. So what do you think happens in
Speaker 1: the second act? It's scripted, it's right here. I already know.
Speaker 1: I know it's athletic. I know, I know they're they're
Speaker 1: great athletes, they're great actors as well. It was just
Speaker 1: it was it's a little jarring for me to watch
Speaker 1: Sports Center, spending eighteen years there, and look, they asked
Speaker 1: me to do a lot of different things. We put
Speaker 1: a game show, remember that it was called I think Teammates.
Speaker 1: Do you remember that where we would interrupt Sports Center
Speaker 1: to do a game show Big Borrow and deal. Yes,
Speaker 1: like hearsay or something like that variation of that. Oh yes, Seaton.
Speaker 1: You know what we get mostly from the wrestling fans
Speaker 1: in our audience when these types of topics come up
Speaker 1: as a come on, not you guys too. Everybody makes
Speaker 1: fun of us, but you guys, don't make fun of us.
Speaker 1: You're not come don't please, But I'm not making fun
Speaker 1: of wrestling. I'm making fun of covering wrestling. I understand this.
Speaker 1: It gets wrapped up in the come on, don't pick
Speaker 1: on us, please, No. Look, I love them, you know.
Speaker 1: I get emotional when I go to those press conferences
Speaker 1: when they retire, still real to you. That's why I
Speaker 1: still don't real to me. Just water. Thank y'all. Do
Speaker 1: you have that Seaton? Can you find that clip? It's
Speaker 1: one of my favorites. And I don't know who the
Speaker 1: wrestler is, but the fact that the wrestler is saying easy,
Speaker 1: there's very funk. Mister funk. See if you can find
Speaker 1: that take his name, take it easy mane Yes, I
Speaker 1: like wrestling. I grew up in wrestling, Roddy Roddy Piper.
Speaker 1: I like the It's an impressive show. There's a reason
Speaker 1: you can't bet on wrestling. You can't put one hundred
Speaker 1: bucks on if Roman Reins is going to win the
Speaker 1: Intercontinental title. You cannot bet on wrestling. Next question, Jeff,
Speaker 1: where are you right there? Yeah? Um, I just want
Speaker 1: to thank each and everyone hell for all you're doing.
Speaker 1: It's still really be damn it. I thank you guys.
Speaker 1: You know, we're awesome. Thank you so much, mister fun
Speaker 1: for saying what needed to be saying. I don't want
Speaker 1: to see it. Hey, take it easy, easy man, Take
Speaker 1: it easy man. Yes, I told you the suns that
Speaker 1: Chris Farley from slid Yeah, how is that not Chris
Speaker 1: Farley saying, Oh, I know, I'm surprised that they didn't
Speaker 1: spoof that. Yeah, Polly, don't sleep on the proper respect
Speaker 1: given from mister Terry Funk. I know I respect that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's real to me. I just want to thank you
Speaker 1: for saying what needed to me. See it squshed up face. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and once again it's we're not making fun of wrestling.
Speaker 1: We're making fun of the coverage of wrestling. Big dang. Okay,
Speaker 1: let Satan answer them, go get him, Seaton answer all
Speaker 1: of our Twitter followers. Oh, come on, not you guys
Speaker 1: man really. By the way, In commemoration the thirty fifth
Speaker 1: anniversary of Hoosiers, today's newsletter will include an interview I
Speaker 1: did with Maris villanis better known as Jimmy Chitwood. He
Speaker 1: shares how he got hired for the role, as well
Speaker 1: as some great stories working with Gene Hackman and Dennis
Speaker 1: Hopper that's on the newsletter that comes out later on today. Alrighty,
Speaker 1: welcome to the program, as you can tell already in progress,
Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football Mac Jones week. Unofficially, what if the
Speaker 1: Patriots lose this game? Because here's this scenario. Patriots, they
Speaker 1: play well, Mac Jones plays well, and then that continues
Speaker 1: the narrative. Mac Jones best quarterback in the draft. The
Speaker 1: Patriots they're going to be a playoff team? Are they
Speaker 1: a super Bowl contender? What if the Falcons win? Then
Speaker 1: what happens? Patriots are big favorites six and a half
Speaker 1: point favorites against Atlanta in Atlanta eight seven seven three

Speaker 1: on the website. Go to Dan Patrick dot com mclovin.
Speaker 1: Do we have a poll question today? Yeah, we have
Speaker 1: a few topics here. Start with Matt Jones. Is Matt
Speaker 1: Jones more the guy or the right place at the
Speaker 1: right time. I think he's both. I think it's really
Speaker 1: essential where you go. Who's your coach, who's your offensive coordinator,
Speaker 1: what weapons do you have? How good is your offensive line.
Speaker 1: It's if Trevor Lawrence was with New England, then we
Speaker 1: would probably be throwing verbal bouquets at Trevor Lawrence. But
Speaker 1: he plays in Jacksonville. If Zack Wilson was there, maybe
Speaker 1: we're saying the same thing. If Justin Fields is there,
Speaker 1: if Trey Lance is there, right place, right time, right coach,
Speaker 1: right system. A lot of times you'll see these quarterbacks
Speaker 1: who go into a system and then the offensive coordinator
Speaker 1: gets fired because the coach gets fired, and then you
Speaker 1: bring another coach and then another offensive coordinator, another system,
Speaker 1: and that's where you see quarterbacks really struggle. You know,
Speaker 1: Justin Field's going to Chicago. I think people thought, for
Speaker 1: some reason he has a better chance of succeeding because
Speaker 1: Chicago is better than Jacksonville and the Jets, and they're not.
Speaker 1: But I think that he has a lot of talent.
Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady famously told me if he went
Speaker 1: in the first round, he probably wouldn't have lasted in
Speaker 1: the NFL. He went to the right place at the
Speaker 1: right time, got his chance. By the way, Drew Bledsoe,
Speaker 1: the former NFL quarterback who got hurt in that game
Speaker 1: against the Jets with the hit by Moe Lewis. He's
Speaker 1: talked about this, but Drew is kind enough to join
Speaker 1: us a little bit later on. You know, he helped
Speaker 1: Brady become Brady. That Drew was a great team player,
Speaker 1: and Brady has talked about this, the Drew Bledsoew you're
Speaker 1: the future of the Patriots. He gets hurt, this unknown
Speaker 1: comes in, wins the Super Bowl, and then Drew ends
Speaker 1: up in Buffalo. But Drew will joined us a little
Speaker 1: bit later on. The Saint's head coach Sean Payton a
Speaker 1: little bit later on, Mike Florio was going to join
Speaker 1: us in ten minutes, and he's talking about the NFL expanding.
Speaker 1: You know what's happening with the former the artist formerly
Speaker 1: known as the Saint Louis Rams While the city is
Speaker 1: suing the NFL and Stan Crunkie for violating their lease agreement.
Speaker 1: And this might turn out. This part of the settlement
Speaker 1: is Saint Louis gets a franchise, Well, then you have
Speaker 1: an odd number and then you have to add another franchise.
Speaker 1: And there's talk that the NFL could expand to forty teams.
Speaker 1: So we'll talk to Florio about that coming up here
Speaker 1: in twenty minutes. Jannis dropped forty seven as the Lakers
Speaker 1: beat the lebron Lakers last night. And you know, he
Speaker 1: caused a stir in Milwaukee the other day. He did
Speaker 1: an interview with GQ. He was their athlete of the Year.
Speaker 1: He started talking about her, hinting that he might leave
Speaker 1: to find his next challenge, and of course, the first
Speaker 1: team that's always brought up is, oh, he'll end up
Speaker 1: with the Lakers. Now, Jannis put on a show last
Speaker 1: night in front of the Lakers. Hit his free throws
Speaker 1: three or four from three point range. And if you're
Speaker 1: a Milwaukee fan old enough to remember, Kareem Abdul Jabbar
Speaker 1: left in nineteen seventy five, went to the Lakers. Bucks
Speaker 1: didn't win another title until the Greek Freak last season.
Speaker 1: The reality is Los Angeles draws the stars, Kobe shack
Speaker 1: Lebron Jannis. He's that kind of player. And do I
Speaker 1: love to see a player stay in his whole career
Speaker 1: in one city. Yeah, but those days are long gone.
Speaker 1: And just because it happened in the fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties,
Speaker 1: nineties doesn't mean it should happen. You know, your lifestyle,
Speaker 1: where do you want to live? And you see these
Speaker 1: athletes not as beholden to a city, and even teams
Speaker 1: are not as beholden to these athletes. So whether it's
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee, LA or elsewhere, Yannis has several more impactful
Speaker 1: chapters left in his storybook career. It was fun to
Speaker 1: watch him last night. And I know I'd like to
Speaker 1: compare Anthony Davis with Yannis, and I think Yannis is
Speaker 1: on a different level than Anthony Davis. It doesn't mean
Speaker 1: I thought Anthony Davis was the Greek freak before him
Speaker 1: as far as his style, his ability, you know, and
Speaker 1: he's a notch below the Greek freak. But if if
Speaker 1: he could somehow absorb whatever that is that Jannis has
Speaker 1: of I want to be great every single night and
Speaker 1: get better. And you can see that with him, like
Speaker 1: he truly wants to get better each game, each moment,
Speaker 1: and he's not afraid of a big moment. And I
Speaker 1: would love to see AD and I don't know if
Speaker 1: Lebron lets him take the team. If Lebron's smart, which
Speaker 1: he is, then he would want AD to take over
Speaker 1: be dominant because if he is, there are not many
Speaker 1: players in the NBA who can play like that. You know,
Speaker 1: he's got a great handle, he can shoot. He's a
Speaker 1: better shooter than Jannis. He's only a year and a
Speaker 1: half older. But it feels like he's been around and
Speaker 1: we've seen his best. I don't know if we've seen
Speaker 1: Yannis's best, because when I watched him last year in
Speaker 1: the finals, I thought, if he ever gets that respectable jumper,
Speaker 1: then it's all over because you let him take that shot.
Speaker 1: If he starts to hit that and he only needs
Speaker 1: two or three dribbles, one or two dribbles to get
Speaker 1: to the hoop, I mean, that's what's scary about him.
Speaker 1: But he wants to be great, and maybe this comes
Speaker 1: down to personality. I'm not fair to Anthony Davis because
Speaker 1: my expectation level is high. I've seen him be great
Speaker 1: but I want him to take over that team, and
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have to this season because Lebron
Speaker 1: may have one more year left where it's I'm Lebron
Speaker 1: look out, and then after that then I think you
Speaker 1: have to kind of reassess the Lakers, do Lebron's going
Speaker 1: to and make sure that you almost empower Anthony Davis
Speaker 1: be great every single night. And that's the difference with Superstars,
Speaker 1: that guy who every single night had to be great.
Speaker 1: I always go back to Alan Iverson. I never got
Speaker 1: cheated with Alan Iverson. It was every night he wanted it.
Speaker 1: He took it to you. Kobe took it to you
Speaker 1: every single night. I mean, that's greatness. That's what you want,
Speaker 1: that competitor every single night. And maybe Anthony Davis can't
Speaker 1: do that, but I still hold out hope for that
Speaker 1: because he has wonderful skills. Yeah, mcclevin, I think he
Speaker 1: could argue Anthony Davis's skill sets better equipped for the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Until last year, Janis was a playoff detriment. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean the narratives change, like he's an outside shooter, Anthony Davis,
Speaker 1: you could always get that in the playoffs, but you
Speaker 1: can build a wall. Remember you used to be able
Speaker 1: to the wall against Jannis in the playoffs. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: you know, I still look at Anthony Davis and say
Speaker 1: stop taking jumpers. You know, the Lakers are complaining to
Speaker 1: the league saying, hey, he's not getting to the line. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know what happens. Take it to the hoop. You'll
Speaker 1: get to the line. Shooting jumpers are not gonna happen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a club. If you know you've you were way
Speaker 1: early on Anthony Davis. I remember that, You're like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is the one ABC. Has he been a bit
Speaker 1: of a disappointment to you from where he started New Orleans? Well,
Speaker 1: you could see what was happening, but you weren't watching
Speaker 1: those games. You know a lot of times we'll just
Speaker 1: see a highlight. If you watch the game, then you
Speaker 1: see a player and you're going, oh wow, okay, this
Speaker 1: is different, or he's added something. And I just remember
Speaker 1: coming in one day and it was early in the season,
Speaker 1: maybe his second year in the NBA, and I said,
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis going to be the next star. But nobody's
Speaker 1: watching the games. But if you see what his skill
Speaker 1: set is, got a great touch handle Because you know
Speaker 1: he had this growth spurt when he was in high school.
Speaker 1: When he got to Kentucky, he was a point guard.
Speaker 1: And he's got you know, the handle, the touch, he's
Speaker 1: got everything that you would want. He's got size, length.
Speaker 1: But it's that do I want to be great one
Speaker 1: of the all times? And it's every single night. You
Speaker 1: can't just coast Durant every single night, Dame Lillard every
Speaker 1: single night. It's a toll. But that's what happens when
Speaker 1: you're the star of a team. Let's pull question. We're
Speaker 1: gonna go with. Okay, I think we'll start NFL, but
Speaker 1: we are working on this super MBA Tier one, tier
Speaker 1: two pole that it's just a cannon worsh it is
Speaker 1: a this eye the glass has been debating which player
Speaker 1: is good enough to lead their team single handedly to
Speaker 1: a title, and the names are. We need you, We
Speaker 1: need your input. All right, Okay, I'll start with Mac JONESO.
Speaker 1: Is Mac Jones really the best rookie quarterback? Or is
Speaker 1: he just in the best situation he's physically he's far
Speaker 1: and away the best so far. Yeah, if Mac Jones
Speaker 1: was in Jacksonville, would we be talking about him? If
Speaker 1: he was in New York with the Jets. Would he
Speaker 1: is he gonna be the best quarterback out of this
Speaker 1: draft seven to ten years? Do we look back and
Speaker 1: go in You know, the Patriots weren't interested in any
Speaker 1: other quarterback. They were taking Mac Jones that was in.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they would have done if San
Speaker 1: Francisco took him, because I don't think they would have
Speaker 1: taken a quarterback. Yeah, people are trying not to but
Speaker 1: I see Tom Brady comparison. But you can make the
Speaker 1: comparison of when Tom first got there. I think that's fair.
Speaker 1: I think you can do that. It's dangerous to go, hey,
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick compares Mac Jones to Tom Brady in their
Speaker 1: rookie year or their second year. I mean, we're gonna,
Speaker 1: I think, be able to do a fair comparison between
Speaker 1: those two because they played for the same coach offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator system. And you know, I think you'll be able
Speaker 1: to do that. By the way, the Hottest Rookie's, biggest

Speaker 1: We'll settle on a pole. Question all to that forthcoming
Speaker 1: boys on the other side of the glass, got something
Speaker 1: cooked up here? Is it football related or basketball related? Mclovin,
Speaker 1: We are debating basketball related. And then we have a
Speaker 1: side football thing too, Okay, a side football thing, Yes,
Speaker 1: the side football thing. If you're Mel Tucker, would you
Speaker 1: take a huge deal in Michigan State? Well, they're offering
Speaker 1: him a ten year deal? Okay, But do any of
Speaker 1: these contracts really mean what they're they're broadcast advertised to be, Like,
Speaker 1: it's a ten year deal. Do you think somebody is
Speaker 1: going to stay ten years at Michigan State? But it
Speaker 1: sounds splashy ten years, ninety million dollars stay here because
Speaker 1: of the LSU rumors. This is what happens with these
Speaker 1: coaches have a little bit of success, and it'd be
Speaker 1: nice to agree to this contract before you play Ohio
Speaker 1: State because you know, if it goes bad against Ohio State,
Speaker 1: then you might get the James Franklin treatment. It's like,
Speaker 1: maybe we're not as interested as we thought we were. Yes,
Speaker 1: Paulie guy, Like mel Tucker, you look at that contract.
Speaker 1: It's all about the buyout in five years if they
Speaker 1: have to move on. How the buyout is everything on
Speaker 1: these contracts. Yeah, they got to pay them with they
Speaker 1: fire Mike Florio, popular co host or Pro Football Talk Live,
Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk dot Com must read every single day,
Speaker 1: keepshup on all the things rumors, innuendo, and of course
Speaker 1: real news. Mike joins us. Now, Mike, I'm want to
Speaker 1: start with a couple of topics that you have written about.
Speaker 1: One is expansion. That what's going on in Saint Louis
Speaker 1: with this lawsuit with this city against Stan Cronky taking
Speaker 1: the Rams to Los Angeles, and that it could lead
Speaker 1: to expansion. Explain to me timeframe the probability that could
Speaker 1: happen well. And here's where you have to keep in mind.
Speaker 1: First of all, the lawsuit filed by various entities in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis against the NFL isn't going well for the NFL.
Speaker 1: And Stan Cronky, who agreed in theory to be responsible
Speaker 1: for all of the costs and expenses and potential settlement
Speaker 1: or judgment, he's found some language that would maybe allow
Speaker 1: him to back away from that full responsibility so the
Speaker 1: league could be on the hook for it. So if
Speaker 1: those planets line up in a way that results in
Speaker 1: number one, a huge verdict against the league. Number two,
Speaker 1: stan Cronky's not individually responsible for it. That's when this
Speaker 1: idea of maybe dangling an expansion team to settle the
Speaker 1: case comes into play. And this is something that was
Speaker 1: raised with me. I wouldn't even looking for anything about it,
Speaker 1: wasn't asking about it. We just kind of mentioned as
Speaker 1: a possibility. This is the way that Roger Goodell could
Speaker 1: solve the problem of Saint Louis by offering an expansion team.
Speaker 1: Now would have to be negotiated, who would be the owner,
Speaker 1: what would be the expansion fee, where would they play?
Speaker 1: But Dan, this all comes down to legalized gambling. The
Speaker 1: NFL is going to crave more inventory, more things on
Speaker 1: which people can especially once the technology is in place
Speaker 1: to remove any and all lag from what's happening at
Speaker 1: the game site to what's happening on this so you
Speaker 1: can make a bet in the forty seconds between the
Speaker 1: end of one play and the end of the next,
Speaker 1: with nobody being behind what's actually happening at the game.
Speaker 1: The money will explode and they can only get to
Speaker 1: eighteen games. If they can even get to eighteen games.
Speaker 1: After that, the only way you increase inventory is to
Speaker 1: increase teams. So I think it's coming. And the quarterback
Speaker 1: play has improved to the point where you could justify
Speaker 1: more than thirty two teams, So it would be Saint
Speaker 1: Louis and somebody else and they bumped to thirty four.
Speaker 1: And is it crazy to think it would happen within
Speaker 1: ten years? I don't think it's crazy to think it
Speaker 1: could happen within ten years. Okay, Saint Louis obviously would
Speaker 1: be in play. Give me the other city. Well, if
Speaker 1: the NFL keeps going, you've got two teams that would
Speaker 1: be potentially in London, whether it's the Jaguars, and an
Speaker 1: expansion team. Sorry, Jacksonville, but your owner has eyes on London,
Speaker 1: and if they're going to put two teams there, he's
Speaker 1: probably going to want to be one of them. Chicago,
Speaker 1: they get that new stadium that they're talking about at
Speaker 1: Arlington Heights, Bells and Whistles, third largest market in the league,
Speaker 1: and you know, if you're going to build one of
Speaker 1: these stadiums, the more games you play in it, the
Speaker 1: more quickly you make your money back. So I've been
Speaker 1: talking for a long time about the possibility of a
Speaker 1: second team in Chicago, the other dynamic two Dan because
Speaker 1: I think forty is where they're going to end up
Speaker 1: at some point, not anytime soon, but eventually they're gonna
Speaker 1: get to forty. There's talk at the highest levels of
Speaker 1: the league about the wisdom of building smaller stadiums because
Speaker 1: for that upper deck general admission, they don't make a
Speaker 1: whole lot of money off of that, and sometimes it's
Speaker 1: more trouble than it's worth. Smaller stadium means you can
Speaker 1: put teams in markets that we otherwise aren't thinking about
Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter where the games are played. What
Speaker 1: matters is the games are being played and anywhere you're
Speaker 1: sitting on a couch or in a bar, or wherever
Speaker 1: you can bet on what's happening in those games. Doesn't
Speaker 1: matter what city it is. We wouldn't have thought of
Speaker 1: Jacksonville as an NFL city, frankly, and I'm sorry to
Speaker 1: pile on Jacksonville, but it's like the number forty four
Speaker 1: TV market, and it's got a team, so it would
Speaker 1: not be hard, especially if they buy into this idea
Speaker 1: of building smaller, cheaper stadiums just so they have places
Speaker 1: where they can headquarter a team. But are we talking
Speaker 1: San Antonio? Are we talking Portland? Oklahoma City? Oklahoma City
Speaker 1: I think would fit. I don't know about San Antonio
Speaker 1: because it's halfway between Houston and Dallas, and I think
Speaker 1: those two teams would say, don't put another team in
Speaker 1: our backyard. We want to draw those fans to our
Speaker 1: gigantic stadiums. We don't want them following a team of
Speaker 1: their own. But I think Oklahoma City makes sense. San
Speaker 1: Diego could make sense if you can find a way
Speaker 1: to pay for the stadium. Oakland would make sense, but
Speaker 1: again in California, you got to be willing to pay
Speaker 1: for the stadium. But the smaller the stadium, and it's
Speaker 1: just the money that is going to be at play
Speaker 1: as a result of gambling is staggering. I don't think
Speaker 1: we've fully gotten our arms around what it's going to
Speaker 1: mean to the NFL. But by the end of this decade,
Speaker 1: they're going to be making an extra billion a year
Speaker 1: from the early stage gambling lay ships that they're able
Speaker 1: to conjure. It's only going to get bigger and bigger
Speaker 1: when the end game betting is happening coast to coast
Speaker 1: or maybe even worldwide, where people can lock in a
Speaker 1: buck here, a buck there in the forty seconds between
Speaker 1: the end of one play in the start of the
Speaker 1: next one. He's Mike Florio Pro Football Talk Live co
Speaker 1: host with Chris Simms. That show precedes hours. Mac Jones
Speaker 1: Week not official, but it's been Mac Jones. Let's slobber
Speaker 1: all over Mac Jones here and now you go into
Speaker 1: Atlanta tonight. I don't know if if he how great
Speaker 1: he is. Good he is, but he is in the
Speaker 1: right system or a situation of all of these rookie quarterbacks. Now,
Speaker 1: I thought Trey Lance might be, but San Francisco is
Speaker 1: underachieve and Trey Lance is not ready. But is mac
Speaker 1: Jones good or is he good for that system that
Speaker 1: he's in with that head coach and that offensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: I like what I've seen from Justin Fields the past
Speaker 1: couple of games more than anything I've seen from mac Jones.
Speaker 1: But mac Jones fits precisely with what the Patriots are
Speaker 1: trying to do. And Sim's made this point earlier today,
Speaker 1: the idea that Bill Belichick is trying to recreate two
Speaker 1: thousand and one all over again with a young quarterback
Speaker 1: who operates within the confines of the offense, a defense
Speaker 1: that is big and strong and fast and versatile so
Speaker 1: that there's nothing you can do to them that they
Speaker 1: can't counter. You don't get them in a bad spot
Speaker 1: like the Rams the other night, where hey, we got
Speaker 1: all these pass rushers and we've got a great cornerback,
Speaker 1: but you're gonna run the ball down our throat. There's
Speaker 1: nothing we can do to stop you. Belichick can stop you.
Speaker 1: And also he's got the three headed attack at running
Speaker 1: back and mac Jones is doing just enough. And yet
Speaker 1: mac Jones isn't a superstar, and he may never be.
Speaker 1: But with Tom Brady had been a superstar in any system.
Speaker 1: But the one that he was in at least early
Speaker 1: in his career. And so I look, I know that
Speaker 1: there is a strong Promac Jones component out there, and
Speaker 1: there's an equally strong anti mac Jones component. The truth
Speaker 1: is probably somewhere in the middle. But yeah, he landed
Speaker 1: in the perfect spot for him, and he was the
Speaker 1: perfect guy for the Patriots to have on the board
Speaker 1: at fifteen. Okay, is he better than a fellow Alabama
Speaker 1: quarterback Jalen Hurts. Well, Jalen Hurts is really coming on
Speaker 1: this Eagles team. You kind of write them off early
Speaker 1: and you think it's a mess and the Eagles are
Speaker 1: going to try to find somebody else. I mean, Hurts
Speaker 1: has a different skill set and would Hurts be successful
Speaker 1: in New England, probably not. Would mac Jones be successful
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, probably not. But they're finding a way to
Speaker 1: get the most out of Hurts, and they're focusing on
Speaker 1: the fact that they actually have running backs in Philadelphia.
Speaker 1: There was several weeks early in the season where I
Speaker 1: think they forgot that they actually employed running backs. But
Speaker 1: you know, I think Jones is going to have a
Speaker 1: lot more staying power because of where he is, and
Speaker 1: you look at where that team is. They're going for
Speaker 1: their fifth win in a row. They've outscored their opponents
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty to fifty over the last four games,
Speaker 1: and no one's taking them seriously. Isn't that amazing? This
Speaker 1: is the evil Empire of the NFL. And they can't
Speaker 1: stay hidden for much longer because they have the Titans
Speaker 1: next week and the Bills mun and I Football the
Speaker 1: week after that. So we're gonna find out whether or
Speaker 1: not the Patriots really really are ready to compete with
Speaker 1: the best teams in the league. Well, people don't want
Speaker 1: the Patriots back. That's why I think a lot of people,
Speaker 1: either consciously or subconsciously, you're like, I don't know, let
Speaker 1: me see. I think with that extra wildcard, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's why I picked New England to be a playoff team.
Speaker 1: I thought that they would run the ball, play good defense,
Speaker 1: and then you just ask Mac Jones to kind of
Speaker 1: do what we tell you to do, and it feels
Speaker 1: like that's their blueprint and it has been their blueprint.
Speaker 1: And all you gotta do is get a ticket to
Speaker 1: the table. When you've got Bill Belichick, who knows a
Speaker 1: thing or two about single elimination football, and also, I
Speaker 1: think this is one thing that hasn't sunk in for
Speaker 1: us yet collectively, because we haven't seen it play out yet.
Speaker 1: With the extra game, the extra week, everything gets pushed back.
Speaker 1: Everything is a week deeper into winter time. So outdoor
Speaker 1: games are going to be even more challenging in colder
Speaker 1: climates than they otherwise would have been had a greater
Speaker 1: chance of getting really bad weather. You got a team
Speaker 1: that can run the ball and play good defense, you're
Speaker 1: gonna be in a position to win those games if
Speaker 1: you have to go to Buffalo, or if you can
Speaker 1: get home field advantage and they have to come to you. Mcclubn.
Speaker 1: What's the poll question? The NFL one for Florio? Okay,
Speaker 1: we had a question, is Mac Jones the best rookie quarterback?
Speaker 1: Or right place, right time? Is up on the site
Speaker 1: right now? Okay, I say right place, right time. I
Speaker 1: like Justin Fields, and I wish that they would have
Speaker 1: just made Justin Fields the guy from day one. But
Speaker 1: do you like him more than Trevor Lawrence than any
Speaker 1: of these guys? I'm fascinated by the ceiling of Justin Field. Okay,
Speaker 1: I really am. Okay, yes, all right, how about whose
Speaker 1: career would you want Matt Ryan, Drew Bledsow. Wow, this
Speaker 1: is a Polly special, Paulie, do you want to enhance
Speaker 1: the poll question? Drew Bledsoe has two hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: career touchdowns forty five thousand yards. He does have a
Speaker 1: Super Bowl ring that Tom Brady won, but Drew Bledsoe
Speaker 1: got the team to that Super Bowl game. The rest
Speaker 1: of his career you could say, didn't live up to things.
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's probably going to the Hall of Fame, but
Speaker 1: he is going to be known for one of the
Speaker 1: biggest losses in sports history. I think it's fair to say.
Speaker 1: I was at that AFC Championship game too. I was
Speaker 1: stunned when they went back to Tom Brady he suffered
Speaker 1: a knee injury. Bledsoe came in, got them to the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Was a one week turnaround. I was surprised
Speaker 1: by that, PAULI, do you have the career earnings, because
Speaker 1: I think that may be the difference. I was feeling
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's kicking ass in that department. Yeah, moving out
Speaker 1: from that one, yeah, But you know, can you think
Speaker 1: of another loss in NFL history that Trump's twenty eight
Speaker 1: to three No absolutely not, because it happened in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It was amazing. I couldn't believe it as
Speaker 1: it was happening in the press box watching that game,
Speaker 1: as the Patriots kept scoring and scoring, It's like, there's
Speaker 1: no way in hell. And you know, when Julio Jones
Speaker 1: made that circus catch on the sidelines, that felt like
Speaker 1: the Okay, it's over. Now. The Falcons are gonna win
Speaker 1: this game. They're gon I get a field goal at
Speaker 1: least on this drive, and sanity has been restored to
Speaker 1: Houston and the rest of the world. And that was
Speaker 1: when you know, it all fell apart from there and
Speaker 1: the Patriots tied up. And it was so stunning that
Speaker 1: the Patriots won that game that we didn't make a
Speaker 1: big deal about the fact that the overtime rules continue
Speaker 1: to be flawed, that the team that wins the coin
Speaker 1: toss and scores a first drive touchdown the other team
Speaker 1: should have a chance to match it. That wasn't even
Speaker 1: a talking point. We were so blown away by what
Speaker 1: the Patriots had accomplished. I think if the Falcons had
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl and the Patriots didn't get the
Speaker 1: opportunity with Tom Brady, then this might have been a
Speaker 1: bigger deal. But if I'm the NFL network prior to
Speaker 1: tonight's game, I take the condensed version, I take which
Speaker 1: twenty eight to three, and I pick up the condensed
Speaker 1: version from there and then analyze it. Just start at
Speaker 1: twenty eight to three and analyze it in real time,
Speaker 1: and I think that you could have a fascinating, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of pre game going into that game tonight. And
Speaker 1: the thing that I keep going back to the decision
Speaker 1: to call a pass in a spot where you're in
Speaker 1: field goal range and you get sacked, And who do
Speaker 1: you really blame that on? Do you blame it on
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan for calling the play? Do you blame it
Speaker 1: on Dan Quinn for not saying whoa wa wa woah
Speaker 1: woah woah, wha, we're in field goal range here? And
Speaker 1: do you put some blame on Matt Ryan for not
Speaker 1: doing what maybe a Peyton Manning would have done and said,
Speaker 1: the hell with what they're telling me on the sideline.
Speaker 1: I got a Super Bowl on the line here. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to drop back and risk getting sacked here
Speaker 1: and get knocked out of field goal range. So there's
Speaker 1: one hell of a blame game to be played when
Speaker 1: you get it down to that final moment after the
Speaker 1: Julio Jones catch on the sidelines, where it did feel
Speaker 1: like the Falcons were going to go up eleven and
Speaker 1: it was going to be over all they had to do.
Speaker 1: They just take three knees and we would have remembered
Speaker 1: Julio Jones's catch is one of the great catches in
Speaker 1: Super Bowl history. Instead, you know it's an oh by
Speaker 1: the way, but that catch was incredible and it would
Speaker 1: have led to the field goal that would have put
Speaker 1: this away. I mean, you're just you're watching this in
Speaker 1: real time and you're going, what are they doing? There's
Speaker 1: too many geniuses in the NFL. That was the moment
Speaker 1: that Tom Brady two kind of crossed over into greatest
Speaker 1: of all time where it became imperative to go see
Speaker 1: him play while you still could that. It was like Jordan, like,
Speaker 1: you got to say that you saw this guy play.
Speaker 1: He became something more than just a great quarterback with
Speaker 1: a bunch of rings and look he's still going. I
Speaker 1: would have never dreamed after that game that four years
Speaker 1: later we'd still be talking about this career that has
Speaker 1: no apparent end. Insight, Yeah, is there another Super Bowl
Speaker 1: that compares another game in NFL history that compares to
Speaker 1: what happened to the Falcons. Well, I would say the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl forty nine, two years earlier, when we had
Speaker 1: that catch by Jermaine Curse that was shades of the
Speaker 1: helmet catch by David Tyree. That just created that sense
Speaker 1: the pendulum had shot in favor of the Seahawks and
Speaker 1: they were going to beat the Patriots. And then that
Speaker 1: lightning bolt interception by Malcolm Butler, different way that it
Speaker 1: all ended. But but kind of that stunning. I can't
Speaker 1: believe what I just saw outcome. I think if the
Speaker 1: Bills had gone on to win the Super Bowl with
Speaker 1: the Frank Wright comeback against Houston, then that might have
Speaker 1: been one of those standalone games where but you know,
Speaker 1: Buffalo went on and lost another super Bowl. But other
Speaker 1: than that, you know, I mean Elway David Tyree game two,
Speaker 1: super Bowl forty two, let's not forget about that. I mean,
Speaker 1: that was a stunner of all stunners to hold that
Speaker 1: Patriots team to fourteen points and pull off the throw,
Speaker 1: the catch, the win. That that to me at time
Speaker 1: causes memories like that to fade. But but that was
Speaker 1: that was one where you just say, I can't, I
Speaker 1: cannot believe what I just saw. And also the play
Speaker 1: that's one of the most important plays, biggest plays in
Speaker 1: NFL history, was not the final play. It led to
Speaker 1: the touchdown to Plexico Burus, But a lot of times
Speaker 1: when we have these great moments, it's like all of
Speaker 1: his an unbelievable run or unbelievable catch, you know, and
Speaker 1: the scramble by Eli to me is just as impressive
Speaker 1: because Mike Carey should have called in the grasp, it
Speaker 1: felt like, and he got away with it. The touchdown
Speaker 1: it was like, did you guys forget the cover? Well,
Speaker 1: and you got to Ellis Hobbs, who's Ellis Hobbitt and
Speaker 1: he's out there, he's you know, five ten on six
Speaker 1: or five Plexico Burrus and you know Eli sees that
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, ballgame, and let's not forget this all.
Speaker 1: Apologies to Assante Samuel. An interception in his hands that
Speaker 1: would have that would have prevented any of that stuff
Speaker 1: from happening. Yes, mclen what about immaculate reception or the
Speaker 1: other end of the hail Mary the Viking? I think
Speaker 1: it was a Vike he's lost the Cowboys are Those
Speaker 1: are two pretty rough losses. Those are those are huge,
Speaker 1: immaculate with the Steelers and the Raiders. Sellers didn't even
Speaker 1: get to the super Bowl that year, though, and that
Speaker 1: was weird because back in those days you didn't get
Speaker 1: home field advantage based on your record. There was a
Speaker 1: weird rotation that they did. The undefeated Dolphins actually had
Speaker 1: to go to Pittsburgh the following week and play in
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh to get to the super Bowl and did beat them,
Speaker 1: But there's this confusion over time that that was somehow
Speaker 1: a path to their super Bowl when it wasn't. It
Speaker 1: happened two years before the first time they were even
Speaker 1: got to a super Bowl. Great stuff is always Mike,
Speaker 1: Thanks for visiting and we'll talk to you soon. All right,

Speaker 1: this out? Seven pointally shot clock at eight. Here's a
Speaker 1: pass inside from middle Ty. He just throws it up
Speaker 1: to Jannis, who goes and gets it and does what
Speaker 1: he does best, count the fucking in a foul be honest,
Speaker 1: just muscles it in underneath as he kisses it in
Speaker 1: on close Spartan Tucker was no match courtesy of the
Speaker 1: Bucks Radio Network. Forty seven for the Greek Freak, his
Speaker 1: highest point total since chopping fifty in Game six of
Speaker 1: the Finals the clincher against Phoenix, his first regular season
Speaker 1: game shooting better than fifty percent from three seventy percent
Speaker 1: from the line since January twenty twenty. That is your
Speaker 1: play of the day. Play of the Day is brought
Speaker 1: to you by Well. You're a valued customer. You deserve

Speaker 1: And that's why I discover matches all the cash back
Speaker 1: you've earned at the end of your first year. Discover
Speaker 1: exceptionally common sense. Learn more at discover dot com. Slash
Speaker 1: match limitations do apply. And by the way, I know
Speaker 1: Lebron wasn't there, but the Bucks didn't play that well.
Speaker 1: All you have to do is sort of contain the
Speaker 1: Greek Freak and let him go off for forty seven.
Speaker 1: You know you didn't have great performances. Chris Middleton came back.
Speaker 1: He had missed eight games, but at sixteen points, Milwaukee
Speaker 1: didn't look great other than the Greek Freak. Update the
Speaker 1: poll results. McLevin is Matt Jones at the right place
Speaker 1: at the right time or is he best rookie quarterback
Speaker 1: fifty nine at the right place for right time. By
Speaker 1: the way, it looks like Lebron will be back on
Speaker 1: Friday night against the Celtics. I think there was maybe
Speaker 1: a possibility he'd play against the Bucks, but seems like
Speaker 1: they've circled the calendar for Lebron coming back against the Celtics. Yampole,
Speaker 1: there's a guy behind me doing a couple of hour
Speaker 1: rolls about Lebron not playing against Jannis for two days.
Speaker 1: I could actually hear Fritzy rolling his eyes. Oh, he
Speaker 1: wasn't available to play the defending champion Bucks, And all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, he's better than saying he's fifty fifty.
Speaker 1: There's a good chance, there's a decent chance. Celtics obviously
Speaker 1: not quite the level of Jannis and the Bucks, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's just going to kind of
Speaker 1: sneak back in tomorrow night. Nice, Okay, it's he's him
Speaker 1: back into things. You're accusing Lebron of avoiding the mill
Speaker 1: One or maybe whoever helps make the decisions and the
Speaker 1: coaches in fun office. Why an't we waking a Friday
Speaker 1: night as Lebron makes the decisions on Lebron. He's also
Speaker 1: busy with his tonal workout, and you know maybe he
Speaker 1: pulled something in the in the in the abs or
Speaker 1: something he needed a couple of your days. Don't think
Speaker 1: you're sounding really confident. You're backtracking a little bit there.
Speaker 1: I want to know how it could be fifty fifty
Speaker 1: one day before the game. That's the latest report. I
Speaker 1: saw literally a flip of a coin whether Lebron's playing
Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Can it really be fifty fifty? Like thirty
Speaker 1: plus hours before games? If Lebron came on today and
Speaker 1: you answered the phone and you were setting him up
Speaker 1: for the interview, would you say, why didn't you play
Speaker 1: against Milwonkee? I probably wouldn't. Why I would leave that
Speaker 1: for you to address. Oh, you'd wait for me time.
Speaker 1: We've been looking for to having me back of the toe.
Speaker 1: You dead. Yeah, you know Dan's been saying, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know fifty fifty. Why don't you play against the Bucks?
Speaker 1: What do you think about that? We were looking for
Speaker 1: your abs and the total spots. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: stuff we gotta get to. Yeah, yeah, Paul, you're also
Speaker 1: leaving out. Fritzie would say all the best of the family.
Speaker 1: Happy holidays to you and yours because it's almost late November. Yes,
Speaker 1: having peppy pre thanksgiving all that. Yes, the Bucks haven't
Speaker 1: even been good this year. The Celtics have been better
Speaker 1: than the Bucks. That take picks, no sense the Bucks
Speaker 1: have been losing, right, that was the storyline coming in.
Speaker 1: The Bucks aren't yelling at each other and saying this
Speaker 1: one shooting too much work me in. There seems to
Speaker 1: be some chemistry issues that I don't see necessary with
Speaker 1: the Bucks that the Celtics are having with Marcus Smart
Speaker 1: and they're who's who is Lebron worried about on the
Speaker 1: Bucks guarding him? That's a very good great freaks not
Speaker 1: guarding him. I still see the Bucks as a little
Speaker 1: bit better every team. Yeah, they probably are. I guess
Speaker 1: they're the defending champ. This is hot taking saying the
Speaker 1: Bucks are better than the Celtics fifty fifty. We'll see
Speaker 1: what happens. Hopefullybar will be able to play. Thank you Todd.
Speaker 1: All right, Yes, so we're trying to figure out how
Speaker 1: to make this a pull. But we have a Tier one,
Speaker 1: Tier two NBA debate going on. You know, the old
Speaker 1: Tier one, Tier two Okay, okay, how many how many
Speaker 1: players can single handedly lead their team to a championship?
Speaker 1: And who's in that tier one? Somebody handedly? Well, you know,
Speaker 1: like who's a like Lebron, Kevin Durant, Jannis, Steph Curries. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're sure tier ones? Who else belongs in that tier?
Speaker 1: I don't know if Steph can single handedly do it
Speaker 1: because he had an unbelievable year last year and they
Speaker 1: didn't even make the playoffs. They had play in games.
Speaker 1: Lebron took a Cleveland team to the finals against San
Speaker 1: Antonio and that team had no business playing for a championship.
Speaker 1: Greek freak. You know, prior to last year, we were
Speaker 1: looking and wondering if he was able to carry a team.
Speaker 1: Durant wasn't able to get by Golden State with Russ
Speaker 1: and even they had James Harden as a sixth man
Speaker 1: last year couldn't get by the Greek freak. It's tough,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a it's a smaller list than you think, Like,
Speaker 1: do I think Luca can No not yet, Embiid, no Hardened,
Speaker 1: no Ad no Kyrie, no Paul George, No I would
Speaker 1: actually put in there. I think he's when he's healthy
Speaker 1: and he gets into the playoffs, he's he's obviously a
Speaker 1: you know, just a different player. You know, that's when
Speaker 1: he becomes comparable to Lebron, not any other time because
Speaker 1: he's not healthy or doesn't care to play much during
Speaker 1: the regular season. But yeah, it's not many who can
Speaker 1: single handedly. I would put Jannis in there because it
Speaker 1: feels like he single handedly was winning that title for
Speaker 1: the Bucks, but he got great, great contributions from their
Speaker 1: role players. Yeah, I had to say with his age,
Speaker 1: is Lebron definitely in that and this health and age,
Speaker 1: maybe if you put it this year, maybe, like I
Speaker 1: it's the respect I have for Brady that I would
Speaker 1: have for Lebron and just say, you know what, maybe
Speaker 1: they got one more in him, because it feels like
Speaker 1: every time you don't think they have one more in him,
Speaker 1: they do. Can Lebron do that when I get to
Speaker 1: the postseason, I believe so, But I believe that window
Speaker 1: is just about closed. Yeah. Maybe the reasoning for the
Speaker 1: top tier the NBA, My reasoning would be players who
Speaker 1: are generally flawless on the court. They don't have any
Speaker 1: issues injuries that much anything, a weakness in a game
Speaker 1: Durant Lebron Janis and Steph Cray seem like that tier.
Speaker 1: Lucas a notch below on the court. Steph hasn't been
Speaker 1: a finals MVP, so when you're single handedly leading your team,
Speaker 1: you would think you would be MVP of the finals.
Speaker 1: Coming up, we'll talk to the Saints head coach and
Speaker 1: former quarterback Drew Bledsoe stops by as well. One more item.
