50
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,120

Speaker 1: there going to be children there? You can? Are your

00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 1: dogs not friendly? The children? One is? The other one's

96
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,440

98

Speaker 1: and uh we haven't done in a while with Connie Back.

103
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: Why not hit the mail bag? So I'm fun, fun show.

104
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: That's great, I'm exciting. Okay, let's do some news. What

105
00:05:53,680 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 1: the list it is up? Free? Yeah? There the great

106
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: iconic Aretha Franklin who passed away, uh this week? That

107
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: that was before a Lions game. I think I'm yes.

108
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: She also performed the Star Spangled banner before Super Bowl

109
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: forty in Detroit. And I will say one thing that

110
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: that video which was put up on NFL dot com

111
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: um yesterday after news of her death was reported, that

112
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: was a four and a half minute version of the

113
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: national anthem, which is unheard of. And you would think

114
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: that everyone would be like really bummed out. But if

115
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: you watch that video, all the players and obviously the

116
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: crowd going nuts. Uh legend dot com. I would challenge

117
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: anyone to find as many like beautiful songs over a

118
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,559
Speaker 1: fifteen month period as Aretha Franklin had in nineteen sixty

119
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: seven and sixty eight. She is phenomenal. What a run?

120
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: Who would be like the is she like the Gael Sayers?

121
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: Like the most brilliance packed into a short period of time.

122
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: Maybe your boy, the Cincinnati quarterback that you write poems about,

123
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: Ken Anderson Cook lasted for what not? Everybody No, not

124
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: Patty labell Um and uh maybe Frank Gore esk. Greg,

125
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: you've been very quiet about now I want to listen.

126
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: West is an expert, so I don't have much to add.

127
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather listen to him. He's like Walter Payton, high

128
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: peak and lasted a long time sweetness. All right, let's

129
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: move into the news and start with yes, bad news

130
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: on the throne of ease where Uh, Patriots rookie offensive

131
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: lineman Isaiah Winn suffered a torn achilles um and is

132
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,559
Speaker 1: out for the year. Uh. It occurred during the thirty

133
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: seven to twenty win over the Eagles on Thursday. Rap

134
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: she'd had the reporter, this is the twenty third overall pick.

135
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: He was kind of in line, maybe not a defined

136
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: role just yet, Greg, Maybe a swing tackle. Maybe he

137
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: was gonna find a role. Probably would consider his first

138
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: round pick. Uh. For and for a Patriots team that

139
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: lost Nates Soldier to free agency. Uh, this is a tough,

140
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: tough blow and a guy that draft Nicks who love

141
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: line play were just thrilled and excited to watch play.

142
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: I think Mike Mike Golick Jr. Was saying he wasn't

143
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: looking forward to any player in the league as much

144
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: as Win. And it hurts because he was playing right

145
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: tackle because Marcus Cannon hasn't practiced in two and a

146
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: half weeks, and the thought around Foxborough was when they

147
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: moved Win to right tackle earlier this week, that was

148
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: a bad sign for Marcus Cannon's availability. So suddenly this

149
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 1: is a position that's just always injured for the Patriots.

150
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: They never have both of their tackles ready and it's

151
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: starting another season like that. Looks like Trent Brown is

152
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: locked in as their left tackle, was a former forty

153
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: nine or six foot seven guy, and they're just gonna

154
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: have to piece it together at right tackle again, which

155
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: they did a year ago when they had, you know,

156
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: the best offense in the league basically, but it's still

157
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: it's not easy to do year after year. The first

158
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: two first round our first two draft picks are injured.

159
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: Right j Michell hasn't practiced at all either in a

160
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: few weeks, and they lost their top pick for the

161
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: season a year ago too. They've had a little bad luck,

162
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: a little bad luck, Danny, And I don't say it's

163
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: a disappointing, you're happy about this. I do not root

164
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: for injuries, how dare you, But I would say that

165
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: even the pay treats who always find a way, Uh,

166
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: this feels like it's gonna be a real challenge. In general,

167
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: there's a dearth of quality offensive line uh talent in

168
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: this league. And when you take a team and you

169
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: remove the franchise left tackle, even if you maybe wasn't

170
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: as good as amount of money after these Giants, a

171
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: solid guy, and now you removed the guy that was

172
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: kind of supposed to be the next man up to

173
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: take them into the next that's gonna be a challenge

174
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: for Billy Boy. Yeah, the depth isn't good because they

175
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: lost Cam Fleming too, who was one of their reserves,

176
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: and now he's gone, so he's with the Cowboys now,

177
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: So it's not like they can just keep rotating guys in.

178
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: This is kind of a tough issue for them. Uh.

179
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: And other injury news, Jerick McKinnon is a really buzzy

180
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: running back for the San Francisco forty Niners. They went

181
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: hard after him in free agency, brought him over from

182
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: the Vikings. He's gonna be shut down for the rest

183
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 1: of the preseason following uh the leg injury that he

184
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: suffered last Sunday, during practice. Uh, they're hopeful. It's a

185
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: strange cap. They're hopeful that he's going to be ready

186
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: for Week one. I guess they they they are confident

187
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: that that's the case, but west not an ideal scenario.

188
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: Especially we keep hearing how important McKinnon is going to

189
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: be to this offense. You want him on the field. Yeah,

190
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: strange calf, which could be a nagging injury. I'd never

191
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: like to hear their soft tissue injuries. Matt Brita also

192
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: out with a shoulder injury. They just signed out for Morris.

193
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: They've got Joe Williams who spice Rack was big on

194
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: coming into the league and lost his rookie year. Kyle

195
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: Shanahan was big on him too, and gave up some

196
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: draft picks to go and it admitted that he questioned

197
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: whether he should have done that. So I love Kyle Shanahan.

198
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: It's very honest. They're like, are you still happy that

199
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: you moved up? He's like, have you thought? Have you

200
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: regretted that all? He's like yeah, It's like, yeah, I've

201
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: had some second thoughts. They're they're injured. The forty night

202
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: is George Kittles also injured? Yeah? I mean they paid.

203
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: They paid McKinnon so much money, like they have to

204
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: be careful with him at this point. Yeah, makes sense.

205
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: And other news the long awaited I mean, we've all

206
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: been on the edge of our seats waiting for the

207
00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: Deaz Bryan Cleveland Browns meeting. It finally happened on Thursday.

208
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: He flew into Cleveland. This is a weird move. They

209
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: had video at the airport of him signing Brown's helmets.

210
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, how is that already there? Right?

211
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: I guess it's even if he didn't doesn't sign with

212
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: the Browns and he left Cleveland without a contract. I

213
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: guess it's kind of a cool thing to have. It's

214
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: unique in the memorability of business. Isn't that like the

215
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: most important thing? That might be the closest he gets

216
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: to signing a Browns contract. Yeah, so let's talk about that.

217
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: Colleen will start with you on this one. Uh, your

218
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: thoughts on des is this kind of just like due

219
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: diligence that the Browns are doing because it got public

220
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: or even on desert sized due diligence? Do you take

221
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 1: this seriously? Is something that could happen? I mean, when

222
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: you think about it on paper, It's like, Okay, the

223
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: Browns could start the season if they were able to

224
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: sign Dez come to some type of agreement with him.

225
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: They could have Dez, they could have Josh Gordon and

226
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: um Jarvis Landry. So that's theoretically on paper, that looks great,

227
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: But then when you think about that, it's like, Okay,

228
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: you don't know about Josh Gordon. And then does Ayant

229
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: like he's played the ex position his entire career for

230
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: like eight seasons in like that that was his thing.

231
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: Now he's got to go to a different offense, learn

232
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 1: new things, and it's got to be humbling to go

233
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: from being a Dallas cowboy to then being a Cleveland

234
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: Brown I've seen this movie in the eighties and the

235
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: nineties over and over again. Everybody's going to the prom

236
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 1: and the one guy doesn't have a date, so he's

237
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: got to settle for the girl that nobody wants. And

238
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: this is does like this has been in the water

239
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: for a few weeks now. He doesn't want to sign

240
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: with the Browns, but he's gonna go visit him in

241
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: the meanwhile, hoping his phone rings from another team. But

242
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: what if he ends up falling in love with this girl.

243
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: That's this girl ends up being like really cool under

244
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: the radar girl gets like this, she's all that makeover.

245
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: I love Lady Vos down the steps at the Red Dress.

246
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: That this is the movie. I was thinking. Put on

247
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: some black glasses on rachel Le Cooking. She's not looking

248
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: at all. Rachel Rachel Lee cook coming down the stair

249
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: case in the Red Dress is I'm not gonna say

250
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: it's uh your arrows the Fast Times Phoebe Kate scene.

251
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: But for for people of a certain age, yes, her

252
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 1: coming down those steps as sixpence none the richer plays.

253
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying it's the greatest scene in

254
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: the history of movie, yes, but it's probably top ten.

255
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: I just a few times I didn't say it. Come on,

256
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: Greg two, you're you're right with the demographic. She was

257
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: a beautiful woman. But you know it wasn't paying your movie.

258
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: It was it was pretty good. Are we sure the

259
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: Browns want Bryant? By the way, why I'm just saying,

260
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: why are they bringing him in if they don't want to?

261
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: She's all that right now? I don't know. I just

262
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: wanted to say, like, it's a movie worth checking out.

263
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: It's a it's a time capsule of the late nineties.

264
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: There's at the end of the yeah, Lillards involved, it's

265
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: not selling it, and then at the rom where everything involved,

266
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the guy who played Shaggy at the prom.

267
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: At the end, everyone the entire senior class has a

268
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: coordinated dance to Fat Boy Slim's uh check it out

269
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: now and ushers the djin. It's just something irrelican. I'm

270
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: still gonna appreciate it now, Yeah, I don't. I don't

271
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: think it was well. I think you might. I'm just saying, anyway,

272
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: back to death. I'm not sure that the Browns want

273
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: Des because I'm giving them some credit because Des makes

274
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: no sense on the Browns. If Josh Gordon is on

275
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: the Browns, I think that's kind of the unseid part

276
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: of Hard Knocks. The arm said, part of the brown season,

277
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: is Josh Gordon going to be on their team? How

278
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: is anyone particularly confident that he's gonna be on their

279
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: team when they're talking about what's ultimately a struggle in

280
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: his life that's been going on five years that you

281
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: have no idea how it's going to play out, and

282
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: the goalpost keep moving. When he first was out of camp,

283
00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: it was like, Oh, he'll be back soon. Now it's like,

284
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: we're kind of optimistic he's gonna be there week one.

285
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: And when I look at this roster, if Josh Gordon's

286
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: actually out there, des makes no sense whatsoever. You have

287
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: Antonio Callaway who's making some noise, You ever Shard Higgins,

288
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: who's had a really good camp, you have Landry, and

289
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: you have Gordon des Bryant's a progress stopper. If you

290
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: don't have Josh Gordon, then I can kind of see

291
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: where it makes sense. And when you saw Hard Knocks

292
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: the other night, John Dorsey seemed all about DEAZ, so

293
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: I don't think that was fictional. But Andrew Healey, who's

294
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: kind of their analytics guy, comes in there and you

295
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: can just tell by the tone of how he was

296
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: talking about his age that that he was maybe not

297
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: such a big fan of bringing Des in. And they

298
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: cut off the conversation before it got too interesting. But

299
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: I think there's an open bit like, why would you

300
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: have DEZ if you have Josh Gordon not that team? Yeah,

301
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: Healey the personnel strategist. He puts at the bottom of

302
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: the page of options for wide receiver the wide receiver

303
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: market and then and and kind of off handedly said

304
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: that Des was thirty. And then Dorsey, who Dorsey is

305
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: the cowboy. I think he likes being in the news

306
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 1: and being like, well, I'm gonna dance with Dez Bryant.

307
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: I think he likes that stuff. So dev was like, well,

308
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: twenty nine and then the most strategistic way possible. Uh,

309
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: heally goes twenty nine point seven. This guy is I

310
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: do that on my spreadsheets. I do age to the

311
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: decimal point. But well, you're the scientist. But just like

312
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: to Greg's point, Like and I wrote this in a

313
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: Hard Knox recap, I had to rewind it a couple

314
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: of times, and I thought that he actually said twenty

315
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: nine going on seventy point seven. But that is, Like,

316
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of the reason I thought you

317
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 1: might have said that is because that's kind of the

318
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: tone he was speaking. Yeah, And I think I think

319
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 1: that makes they ain't doing a dance. I think they

320
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 1: would if Josh Gordon isn't coming back, which I think

321
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: has to be absolutely recognized as a possibility, like how could.

322
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: It's very strange that every anyone talks confidently about a

323
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: man um who's dealing with struggles that have absolutely nothing

324
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: to do with football and that no one has they

325
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: control over. And by the way, how many different times

326
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: on this podcast have we said Josh Gordon's career with

327
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: the Browns is over. We've said it about six different

328
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 1: times because there's been different parts where we thought he'd

329
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: come back and then it didn't happen for him, and

330
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 1: you you hope the best for him. But come on,

331
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: and there are more Dez whispers we won't him get

332
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: into it here about what's going on with not den

333
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 1: excusean Gordon whispers about what's going on behind the scenes

334
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: with him. So, yeah, the longer this goes on, At first,

335
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: that felt like it was I'll he'll be back in

336
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: a week now, Training camps over. Now the season is

337
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: right in front of us, will see what happens. Uh.

338
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: In other news, John elway Um was asked about Colin Kaepernick.

339
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: Why because back in the day Kaepernick to the Broncos

340
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: deal seemed possible, it was on the table, Uh, and

341
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: it did not come to fruition. And now with the Broncos,

342
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: Paxton Lynch and if you watched Paxton led his first

343
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: preseason game, he looks worse than ever. Chad Kelly got

344
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 1: moved to the number two guy. Uh, they might need

345
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: a quarterback. But here is what Always said about Kaepernick

346
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: in that situation. Colin had his chance to be here.

347
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: We offered him a contract. You didn't take it, so um,

348
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: you know, and as I said it my deposition and

349
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm legally able to say this,

350
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: but here he passed it. Greg, What what's the context

351
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: we need here? The sycophantic laughter after Always said that

352
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: is cringe worthy. I read a legal analysis by the

353
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: Way on comment said no, you shouldn't have said it. Uh.

354
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: It could be that comment alone could be an issue

355
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: for Elway and the The idea that because a guy

356
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: turned down your contract once that he wasn't somehow possibly

357
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: going to join your team in the future is silly

358
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: because like, the best way to get job offers is

359
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: to turn them down. It's like, of course, of course,

360
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily preclude him signing Kaepernick in the future.

361
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: He has his rights not go after him. But the

362
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: context is also that John Elway said we're looking for quarterbacks.

363
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: I mean he he said about Chad Kelly. Uh, we've

364
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: got to have confidence that the backup guy can play

365
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: and win football games. Were still in that process even

366
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: though Chad played well, We'll see how he does this week.

367
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: If something were to happen to case Kenny come in

368
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: and win football games. Yeah, Can I add some context

369
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: of my own? Sure? This happened when the Broncos were

370
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 1: reigning Super Bowl champions. They didn't have a quarterback. Colin

371
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: Kaepernick had requested a trade. The Broncos in turn requested

372
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: did he take a pay cut and make about seven

373
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: point nine million? He didn't want to. So to me,

374
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: if I'm John Elway, a competitor, Hall of Fame quarterback

375
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: who competed his whole life, and you didn't want to

376
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 1: come to me and be the quarterback of the Super

377
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 1: Bowl champions, I question your competitiveness. So I think that's

378
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: important context. Well, Plus, he's being deposed and John always

379
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: making you know, to some people looks like he has

380
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: questionable morals or ethics because as of everything that's gone on,

381
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 1: and that's why he's part of this legal Okay, So

382
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: it's not a shock that he would not want to

383
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: sign the guy who's going up against in court. Okay,

384
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: I but I I totally see John Elway's point that

385
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: you did have a chance to sign here and you

386
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: didn't want to. So we're moving on. We we don't

387
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: think that you're competitive enough. But just like just because

388
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: he turned them down once doesn't mean that like that's it.

389
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: Like that's kind of silly though. Why like just because like, okay,

390
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: so you turned someone down for a date once, you're

391
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: not going to like go back and try again. Like

392
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: that's how I ended up marrying my husband, Like not everybody.

393
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: How everyone gets jobs as you turn them down and

394
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: then people keep coming after you and after you and

395
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 1: eventually you say yes, it is that's how a lot

396
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: of people get you end up getting jobs. I mean

397
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: the NFL is like I know, people like to always say, well,

398
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: I wouldn't get away with this in my job. It's

399
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,719
Speaker 1: the NFL. It's not your job right now. But in

400
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: this case, like of course he's not signing him, it

401
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: puts him in a crazy but like they're literally going

402
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 1: up against each other in court, and so whether whatever

403
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 1: you think about that, Like it's not surprising me that

404
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 1: John always not involved. My favorite thing about all these

405
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: quotes in terms of John Elway wondering about Chad Kelly,

406
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: is this really a guy that we have confidence in

407
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: could win games of case game? He's talking as if

408
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: Packiston Lynch isn't even in the room. And he's like

409
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: talking as if he is not on the team. That's

410
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: that's over. Yah, I was watching the game last night.

411
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: He looks completely lost, Packiston Lynch. Um, this legal quagmire

412
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: is for John. Oh, we got some kicking news, spurge.

413
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: Robbie wants redemption, Caleb wants blood that's back, and perhaps

414
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 1: it has. And yet here we are the hottest and

415
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: you know this is my corner. The hottest kickoff kicking

416
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: battle in the NFL right now is right here in

417
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 1: Los Angeles where Robbie Iguayo, the disgraced former buccaneer in

418
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: one corner. In the other corner the vet Caleb Sturgis.

419
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: They are both kicking their balls off right now, performing

420
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: extremely well. And it's putting Anthony Lynne, the Chargers head coach,

421
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: in a very tricky situation. How tricky Chris Westling, he's

422
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 1: thinking about carrying both kickers. Got a decision? Maybe, is that, Anthony?

423
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: This is why the Chargers of the Chargers, you pick

424
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 1: a man would be a man. I think the greatest

425
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: defense of your charger skepticism is Anthony Lynn. Like it's

426
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: I don't believe in I don't believe in the bad

427
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,880
Speaker 1: luck thing or whatever like voodoo cursed you think they

428
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: have over him, it's Anthony Lynn. And then of course

429
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: they're not carrying two kickers on the right. I don't

430
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: believe he even really is considering that. I think they

431
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: were just asking him kicker questions. It was I mean,

432
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: he said it. He said it, so you have to

433
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: take what he said. But I can't imagine that that

434
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: would actually happen. I kind of like him more now

435
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: if he's just messing with everybody. Yeah, he said. It

436
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: was a very close competition. Stire just had a better day.

437
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: Uh this week, I believe they moved a guyot up

438
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: to the first team for the first time in a while,

439
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: and he missed their three kicks. It's an interesting concept

440
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: because if the guy misses the game winning kick, you

441
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: can't bring in the other guy because the game's over.

442
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,959
Speaker 1: Fair point can't argue that. That is very and if

443
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: you're going back and forth and then the other guy

444
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: misses a kick and you go back to the other

445
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: now your own too. And here we are again the

446
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: same place we are every September with the Chargers. I

447
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: wanna I think there is an open question about what

448
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn is going to be like as a head coach,

449
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: because he definitely had some game management issues last year.

450
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: This is second year he pivoted off of this terrible

451
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: run first philosophy that was going very poorly for him.

452
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: You have to give him some credit for pivot. Absolutely

453
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: he can Week five, uh, and then they were a

454
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: better offense the rest of the way. Hey, Ron Rivere

455
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: has had like three or four epiphanies. Who's to say

456
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: that Anthony Link can't have a few. Here's the number

457
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: one reason to doubt the Charges is they have basically

458
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: eight road games and then a kind of road games

459
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: that they don't have a real home field. It's pretty

460
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: big disadvantage that not many people. Hey, they talk about much.

461
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: I'd rather have no home field than no quarterback. Finally,

462
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: in the news, it is one of the more polarizing

463
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 1: debates in recent memory in the NFL. Tyrod Taylor has

464
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: been in the league for what seven years though something,

465
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: and we've always just called him Tyrod. In fact, his

466
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: fantasy name. You know it's a bit of a winking nickname,

467
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: but Tie, God, that's what people call him. So Tie

468
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: is like the main setup. Tie. Now we're being told

469
00:25:54,600 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: and even the brown Ties not Tie Ties to the

470
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: Browns VP of Communications, uh says that it's Tarad Taylor.

471
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: You put the pronoun you put on Rodd Tara Taylor.

472
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: This is ridiculous. He's been in the league way too

473
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: long and all of a sudden just start changing his name.

474
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 1: Why didn't he correct us in the beginning. In his defense,

475
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: it was a teammates that started bringing this up. He's

476
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: never said one word about Now this is controversial because

477
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: his mother came out and said it's actually Tyrod. His

478
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: mother calls him till. Oh what that's confusing. Well, Mina Kimes,

479
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: who did a great feature who we're trying to get

480
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: her on the on this podcast, so come on, come

481
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 1: on and join us. Mina. She called his agent and

482
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: his father and they both call him Tyrod and they

483
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: both said, how about the Browns VP of communications sits

484
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: down and he just be humble and let let Tyrod live.

485
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: There's there should be a long form on this. I

486
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: want to answers. We've got a company wide email telling

487
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: us what the official pronunciation is, and they're going with tough,

488
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: well pussy, that's I don't. I don't accept it. That's

489
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 1: what you that's how you think. But the VP of

490
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: Communication literally responded to Mark Istak, who doesn't. Who's we

491
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 1: worked with great also a champion on the Shield softball team. Yes,

492
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: so the Peter John Baptiste who you'll see in the

493
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: meetings and hard knocks, meeting with the coaches and kind

494
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: of preparing them for press conference, he is that VP.

495
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: He literally responded to Mark is Stack, who sent out

496
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: that company wide email about to Rodd's pronunciation, and he wrote,

497
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 1: stop the madness. Ty is fine if you call him either.

498
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: I asked him yesterday how he introduced himself on nb

499
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: site NBC Sunday Night Football, and he said, Tyrod, So

500
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: there you have it. So this is again it is

501
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: like anything is acceptable, which is gonna be a major problem.

502
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: He's the senior VP, so that might have been him. Actually,

503
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: uh so we got no answer here. I think we

504
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 1: eats an ongoing situation. We need to have Tyrod or

505
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: Tarad on. Both of them need to come on. I

506
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: mean he's waffling a little bit. Here. Let's let's let's

507
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: move on. That's what's happening in the news. All right,

508
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: let's get into the games, and let's start. Yes on

509
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: the throne of ease rife, touchdown patience. This is a

510
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: tough thing to do for a quarterback. Tom Brady to

511
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: Chris Hogan, get used to it. The forty one year

512
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: old quarterback looks as good as ever. Played six drives

513
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: in the first half, opening drive, touchdown nineteen, two touchdowns,

514
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: no picks. Tom Brady still impossibly Tom Brady, offensive line

515
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: issues and all, and the Patriots roll over the Eagles

516
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: thirty seven. Uh, Connie, we're gonna start with you on

517
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: this one. So yes, everything all is well with the quarterback,

518
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: at least in New England. But now Nick Foles is

519
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: someone to worry about. In the second quarter, he suffered

520
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: what the team described as the shoulder strain. This is

521
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: this defending Super Bowl m v P, and this is

522
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: at a time when Carson Wentz is still working his

523
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: way back from knee surgery. You're nervous about this, little nervous,

524
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: little nervous about I never thought that I would be

525
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: nervous about Nick Foles. But even before he got hurt

526
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: or banged up or whatever he is right now. He

527
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: looks rusty, like really rusty, and throw in one quarter

528
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: than he did in the entire Super Bowl. But his

529
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: accuracy wanted if you're an Eagles fan, he was way off.

530
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: He was way off the point so many times. And

531
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: I think too like he he sat out a lot

532
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: of practices and training camp because he had the neck

533
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: and shoulder spasms too, So it's obviously all connected with

534
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: the strange shoulder. Uh. And I wonder if I guess

535
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Nate sud Old against the Browns next

536
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: week if he is really banged up. But yeah, that's

537
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: that's concerning because they don't want to rush Wentz back,

538
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: and when you have Fools there, you don't have to.

539
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: But if Foles is banged up to then you wonder

540
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: if the timeline will be sped up at all. If

541
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: it's between Wentz and Sudfeld, they might have something in Sidefeld.

542
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: He made more. He was looking like Nick Foles super

543
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: Bowl Nick Foles. I mean, he had five wow throws

544
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: in that game, and I thought they're pretty good at

545
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: developing quarterbacks. Yes, I'm just glad that Brady and fools

546
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 1: finally shook hands. So I've completely detached from this. I

547
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: kept on seeing headlines and I'm just like, I'm not

548
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: going to care, But now I want to know. It

549
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: really doesn't. Does this go back to the Super Bowl? Yeah?

550
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: Because there was so much chaos on the field, they

551
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 1: never found each other. The Philly media has been driving

552
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: this story for six How many Jimmy Kemski stick figures

553
00:30:54,080 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: have been Uh so, what so? What did Folds have

554
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: an issue or did he know? They didn't care at all?

555
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: This was a completely fabricated situation. Yeah, but they shook hands.

556
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: I don't they looked into each other's eyes. There was

557
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: a moment there by the way there's I am a

558
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: little nervous. I have to say, Connie is uh someone

559
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: from the Northeast. I've been around the Eagles fans of

560
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: my life. Um, how you guys are gonna handle this

561
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: as you wear? I do like that? Thanks. My mom

562
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: was using it as a rag around the house. Those

563
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: are the best. That's real vintage. It is, man. Some

564
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: Eagles fan paid a thousand dollars to rent like a

565
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: airplane with a sign they had like the final score,

566
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: and well that's what I was going to get um.

567
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: That was what I was gonna get to. It's like

568
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: someone paid how much does that cost? Six hundred dollars?

569
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: A thousand dollars to pay someone? The Eagles fans are

570
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: and now you have the Eagles and the Patriots fans.

571
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: These two fan bases are pumped full of swagger. Kind

572
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: of a Super Bowl rematch. I don't know if the

573
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: if Atlanta would still be standing afterwards. Yeah, that's true,

574
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: could happen. Oh, Patriots got their revenge. So it's a

575
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: it's even the Patriots two and oh in the preseason,

576
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: so they pick up where they left off. Where the

577
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: Eagles do they own to? Yeah, look it's the preseason,

578
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Talk. Do you think this is a hangover?

579
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: The play that Folds got hurt on though, was Adrian

580
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: Claiborne providing pressure. He's been the best pass rusher in

581
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: their training camp. He's had two big games. It's kind

582
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: of been an under the radar signing. Even if you

583
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: took away that six set game he had last year,

584
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: he had more pressures than any player on a pretty

585
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: good Falcons defense by far last year. Even if you

586
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: took away that that game, and if you add him,

587
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: and then the Patriots top pick a year ago, Derek Rivers,

588
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: who also looked very good in this game, and this

589
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: rookie Jawan Bentley. He's making a lot of noise at

590
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: inside linebackers. Suddenly the Patriots defense in the front seven

591
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: has a lot more juice, which they needed. Ben is

592
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: going to start, isn't He looks like he has a chance.

593
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: He'll play Kyle Vannoy, Dante High Tower there, Dante High Tower,

594
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: They'll all will all be in the mix. He looks

595
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: better than the land and Roberts. He looks better than him.

596
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: He looks better than Kyle van Nooy. I think over

597
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:18,719
Speaker 1: Undergreg Patriots twelve and half wins. I'll go under. I'm

598
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: excited though. That's Scott that broadcast narrating Rob Ninkovich. That's

599
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: my favorite part of the preseason is watching the preseason

600
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: broadcast because they're like such a train wreck half the time.

601
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: They keep taking the wrong cameras that people are like

602
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: surprised that they're on camera all of a sudden. There

603
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: was a conversation at one point during the game, what

604
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: would you rather fight a shark or a bear? Really? Like, yeah,

605
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: I mean it was it was a fantastic let speaking

606
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: of telecast, Let's get to the Jets and Redskins because

607
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: that was ESPN Monday Night football audition, not audition but practice.

608
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: Let's call it. Uh So, let's head to that. Oh

609
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: my great effort that time as Peak gets the touchdown.

610
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: Want guys, what Teddy? How good does that feel? After

611
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: the last two years per ten? The Jets have an

612
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 1: interesting uh situation going on at quarterback. Sam Donald got

613
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: to start against the Redskins on Thursday night and looked

614
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: a little bit like a rookie. Looked like at twenty

615
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: one year old rookie. He threw an interception in the

616
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 1: red zone. Uh. He didn't always look comfortable under pressure.

617
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 1: He held the ball a little bit. But Teddy Bridgewater, Uh,

618
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: with the exception of an underthrown deep ball that was

619
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: picked off, played kind of out of his mind. He

620
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: really really looked like a guy who could start for

621
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 1: a lot of teams. Uh. So, West, I'm curious your

622
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: thoughts on this. Uh. Josh McCown is making ten million

623
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,240
Speaker 1: dollars this year, okay? Uh, Teddy I believe has really

624
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: no guaranteed money, but he's making six million if he

625
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: makes it. Makes the team at six million. Donald is

626
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,240
Speaker 1: obviously the future. Who should be the starter of this team?

627
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 1: And how did the Jets handle the situation. It's not

628
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 1: the minor leagues, it's the NFL. You should try to

629
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: win games. I think that Teddy Bridgewater should start, and

630
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: if somebody wants to give you a third round pick

631
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: for him, then maybe that changes the equation. But Teddy

632
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: Bridgewater outplayed him in the first game when everybody went

633
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: gaga over Sam Donald, and he thoroughly outplayed him in

634
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: this game. Teddy Bridgewater wasn't just good. He was outstanding

635
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,879
Speaker 1: in every facet of the game, except for the one

636
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: back shoulder faith that was thrown to the inside that

637
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: you mentioned. But Bridgewater is playing like a real franchise

638
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: quarterback now durability is an issue. He's not the future.

639
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: They're already invested in Donald. I just don't see the

640
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: rush to put Donald in their Week one. Yeah, Teddy

641
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: looked really good. Some of those throws just where he

642
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: was putting the ball, and he was just taking shots

643
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: down field too, like he's not afraid to do that.

644
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: We know that about him with his arm strength. But

645
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: he was able to move around the pocket. He took

646
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: shots his legs. You know it got hit a couple

647
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 1: of okay, yeah, and you you look at the different

648
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: quarterbacks they have their McCown. He's only played one series

649
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: this entire preseason. So you wonder, like it's a strange situation.

650
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: It's kind of a Jetsy situation because I didn't think

651
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 1: bringing back McCown. I thought made sense at the time

652
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: because you really didn't know if Bridgewater was going to

653
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: be okay physically. But now Bridgewater looks like the Bridgewater

654
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: before the knee injury, So now they do have an issue.

655
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: I I'm with West on this right now. I think

656
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,839
Speaker 1: that Bridgewater looks the best. He's looked really good two

657
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: weeks in a row. Why not um start him? Uh

658
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,439
Speaker 1: if if he continues to play this way next week

659
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: and then have Donald and and work him in again.

660
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 1: He's twenty one years old. Donald, You're gonna have plenty

661
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: of time. And then I wonder, Greg, is there a

662
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: trade market for Josh McCown. No, I don't think so.

663
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 1: I think you're you're only he's making ten million. I

664
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: think the only chance is to trade Teddy. But what

665
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: they needed to do to get a draft pick for

666
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: Teddy was exactly what happened last night, because what made

667
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: Teddy unique before he got hurt was he kind of

668
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: combines like the touch and just the little like the

669
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 1: shoulder fakes and just the small things. Kind of he

670
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: reminds me of Philip Rivers, but he combines that with

671
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 1: ability to really move exceptionally in the pocket. And he

672
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: started to show last night that he's getting back to

673
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: that type of player, and that's the type of player

674
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: that he maybe would give up a second round pick for,

675
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: especially if an injury happens. You don't see like a

676
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 1: logical fit. The teams that I tried to come up

677
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: with are really teams that are looking for backups. And

678
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: are you are you gonna give up a high pick

679
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: for a backup? I would say you could, but only

680
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 1: if you think, like, Okay, let's get him in the building,

681
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: see what he's like. If you're the Jaguars as a

682
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: team that you threw out there, that would be bold.

683
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: I can't imagine them doing that, but they don't want

684
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 1: to mess with portals. Fragile psyche, right, which is the

685
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: perfect Isn't Bridge Water the perfect guy for that? And

686
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 1: I would love to see Bridge will protects the ball.

687
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: He has upside, He's young, and I think there could

688
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 1: be a market for Teddy if you get one injury

689
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 1: or if he puts another performance like this, because it

690
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: costs so much to get quarterbacks in the NFL, and

691
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 1: so here's a chance to get one on the cheap.

692
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 1: I think his biggest problem, and fans aren't really talking

693
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,760
Speaker 1: about this, but I imagine every team interested has major

694
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: questions about his durability season. But if he can, and

695
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: that's what you're getting, he absolutely should be a starter. Well,

696
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: but it's only two years removed from that injury. You

697
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: say only, but that was a devastating injury. It's remarkable

698
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: the comeback that he's had. I give the Jets credit

699
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: to me, this is not a Jetsy situation because they've

700
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: played it perfectly. They they got too many quarterback because

701
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 1: you should just get as many as you can see.

702
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: They only gave a million dollars to Bridgewater, and they're

703
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: in a great position. Worst case scenario, they're just gonna

704
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: have too many good, like solid quarterbacks on their roster,

705
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: and that's good. I'm glad you gave the Jets credit

706
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: because I do think they've handled this just about perfectly.

707
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: Um all right. On the Redskins side. By the way,

708
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: Dustin Hopkins had five field goals, including one at the gun.

709
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: There's an undrafted free agent the Redskins wide receiver Cam

710
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 1: Simms who's about six ft five and makes plays. Led

711
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 1: the team in receiving the first game and showed some

712
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: flashes last night. I think that guy's gonna make the team.

713
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 1: So j P. Ryan got hurt and Chris Thompson is

714
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 1: not played yet and people are just kind of assuming

715
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: he's gonna be back to being Chris Thompson. But I

716
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: don't assume that fit Rob was the focal point and

717
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 1: Rob Kelly's but they might. That might be a team

718
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 1: that again is looking for another run. Pe Ryan had

719
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,959
Speaker 1: one carry for thirty yards and then he twisted his ankle.

720
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it's serious. Uh. Finally, the Packers and

721
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: the Steelers the touchdown and he is so devastrated. Touchdown

722
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: trash Rogers. There it is for the first time and

723
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: probably not the last time. Aaron Rodgers the Jimmy am

724
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: Uh touchdown. Oh my goodness, Colleen fireworks out the wazoo.

725
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: I love it. Jimmy Graham and Aaron Rodgers. I feel

726
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 1: like this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship. I

727
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: I love this and I love the Aaron Rodgers after

728
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: the game was talking about how Jimmy Graham, you know,

729
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,399
Speaker 1: wasn't really utilized the way that he could have been

730
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 1: um and at his past spots because they didn't really

731
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: use them a lot in the middle. And he's such

732
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: a great athlete. I think they're going to do a

733
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: lot with him. And it's just like you look at

734
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: the three years he had in Seattle, it was just

735
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: sort of like a blip. I mean, it was like

736
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: he got lost in everything there. He wasn't nearly what

737
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: he was when he was with the Saints. So I

738
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: think we're going to see even more of that now

739
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,320
Speaker 1: in Green Bay, especially with Jordy Nelson gone. That touchdown

740
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: throw was pretty talent because Graham didn't have separation, there

741
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: was a defender on his back. Aaron Rodgers threw it

742
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: about ten and a half eleven feet in the air

743
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: and said, go get it, boy, and he did. Is

744
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: he a guy that can shred the center of defense

745
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: is like the old Jimmy Grahn Or is he going

746
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: to be a red zone beat? I mean Greg and

747
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: I kind of don't see on this issue. He's not

748
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: the old Jimmy Graham, Like he doesn't shred, he doesn't

749
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 1: go down to seam like that. But I think he's

750
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: still as a red zone weapon and in Aaron Rodgers

751
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: is the best red zone quarterback along with Brady in

752
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: the league. He's gonna make Aaron Rodgers makes everyone better,

753
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: and he's gonna help Jimmy Graham. He can kind of

754
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: be like mid he can be like later career, not

755
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: the very end Antonio Gates where it's like Antonio Gates

756
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: wasn't moving too well. He's still putting up seven eight

757
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: hundred yards and ten touchdowns every year just because he's

758
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: smart and he's physical. I think teams are gonna have

759
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,280
Speaker 1: to double him in the red zone. I think Rodgers

760
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: is so pissed that Jordy Nelson has gone that he's

761
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 1: going to make Jimmy Graham look amazing. It was a

762
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 1: cool moment that's gonna work out for Jimmy Graham. A

763
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 1: little revenge that works out for Jimmy. He said. It

764
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: was a cool moment when the Lambeau crowd gave Rogers

765
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,360
Speaker 1: a huge ovation. I love the pack the Packers crowd

766
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: is great, but they gave a huge ov ation and

767
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: he said he he was like tearing up, like he

768
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: was getting pretty emotional. He's getting emotional talking about it afterwards.

769
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: I think the fact that he had football taken away

770
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 1: from him and where he has is at his point

771
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: like he's ready to destroy the league. His little HiPE

772
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 1: bunny Jake Kumero another good game, like this guy's had

773
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: a strong camp touchdown in the first game touchdown last

774
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 1: night where he outran the defense for about fifty yards.

775
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 1: I think he's making the team. Outside linebacker for the Packers.

776
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: Reggie Gilbert, who was a practice squad guy most of

777
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 1: the last year at two and a half sacks. On

778
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 1: the other side, the Steelers, James Connor looks really good,

779
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: and you you continue to wonder if this is DeMarco

780
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: Murray two thousand fifteen or whatever all over again. Leave

781
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: Bell is gonna be used up this year and then

782
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: James Conner will be their guy next year. Probably. It's

783
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 1: so good last night. Yeah, I thought the same thing.

784
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: And I also think if if Lev's hold out last

785
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: into the season, they can still win games with James Conner.

786
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: And they drafted James Washington at the end of the

787
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 1: second round, and he's not really playing with the starters yet,

788
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 1: but man, he had a Randy Moss like touchdown. He

789
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: had a hundred and fifty yards And you're just like, like,

790
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 1: Kevin Colbert is better at drafting wide receivers than like

791
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: anyone in the NFL. Is that anything? He just always

792
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: finds a winner, and this guy looks like like another one.

793
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: All right, that's it. Oh, and Big Ben is out

794
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 1: of concussion protocol. He was not concussed. He was not.

795
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: That's what the story is now. It was like in

796
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:26,879
Speaker 1: the protocol, but he wasn't concussed. Sometimes, Ben, You're okay,

797
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 1: that's not necessary. All right, those are the games. Uh.

798
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: That was Ben's reaction actually to watching Mason Rudolph throw

799
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: a pixel and then it looks like and Andry Jones

800
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: will be the backup there. According to the reporters around there,

801
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 1: are you worried about anybody else in the depth chard

802
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 1: at quarterback? Ben? How about Jalen Ramsey calling you, uh,

803
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 1: just kind of another guy. He's a confident and you

804
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,280
Speaker 1: got to be confident to play the game's most important position.

805
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: All right, let's hit up the mail bag before we go. Uh,

806
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: thank you as always to the listeners who send in

807
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 1: their questions. Blah blah blah blah blah. Where would we

808
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: be without you? Vamp Colleen, I'm looking for the questions. Man. Yeah,

809
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 1: it's great to see you guys. I told you had

810
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 1: road rage on the way over here from a parking garage.

811
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: Like you guys are very family friendly here see, here

812
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: we go, I'll take over. Wait, you had road rage? Yeah,

813
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: I kind of step me off. I was just angry

814
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 1: driving over here after that. I mean I had to

815
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 1: like back up out of the parking garage and go

816
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,319
Speaker 1: to an A t M because it was cash only,

817
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 1: and then get pull into the parking lot at like

818
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,479
Speaker 1: thirty miles an hour. She was like blasting like old

819
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:40,279
Speaker 1: school corn. That's definitely not true. All right, let's hit

820
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,319
Speaker 1: up the mail bag. We'll start with Oh, our boy,

821
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: Eric Jensen at Eric eighteen, Utah. We've been on Eric's podcast,

822
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: A nice man. What do you guys think about expanding

823
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: the NFL playoffs? If you are, how would you do it?

824
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 1: I'm I'm all in on the way things are. I

825
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: don't like things changing in general. I like think is

826
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: the way they are typically as a person not big unchanged,

827
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,240
Speaker 1: so you haven't had a passport, don't like leaving the country,

828
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 1: don't like birds and Sydney. Do not even get on me.

829
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: I don't have it yet, but I'll let you know

830
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 1: when it arrives. Uh, what do you guys think? I

831
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,720
Speaker 1: don't want to see the playoffs watered down? The regular

832
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 1: season has to mean something, and I agree with you.

833
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 1: It's perfect the way it is, and I like change,

834
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: I want innovation, and yet the playoffs do not need

835
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: to be expanded. They are perfect as they are. It

836
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 1: makes it more special, makes the regular season. Yeah, I agree,

837
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,399
Speaker 1: and I don't think. I don't think there's always two

838
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: teams that you don't even want in the playoffs, so

839
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,279
Speaker 1: we don't need to add two more. You know. That's

840
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: like there's just about the Bills in the playoffs. Again,

841
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,360
Speaker 1: I don't get me started on that. Like there's always

842
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,959
Speaker 1: like nine or ten teams that really deserve it. Some years,

843
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: like the NFC last year is like, okay, they all

844
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: deserved it, but there's usually one or two didn't really

845
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 1: need them. But that's also why it makes the end

846
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: of the regular season so fun, because when you have

847
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 1: a division like the n It's a perfect sport and

848
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 1: nothing needs to make actually one thing does. It didn't

849
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,839
Speaker 1: come up. I'm super nervous about the tackling rule again,

850
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 1: the helmet rule. There were some really questionable flags and

851
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,319
Speaker 1: and Wes you on Twitter. I saw that you were saying,

852
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,919
Speaker 1: this is exactly what Riveran was saying. And I get

853
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,239
Speaker 1: that we don't want that in the game. We're taking

854
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,399
Speaker 1: it out of the game. This is the the ones

855
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 1: you were talking about. The guys didn't even try to

856
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: wrap up or tackle. They're diving at I'm just had

857
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 1: to change the way they tackle. I'm just saying, just

858
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: wait until starts swinging games over very very suspect. I'm

859
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,360
Speaker 1: not saying it's not an issue. It's definitely an issue.

860
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: I'm saying that tackle. But was it Rodney McCloud, I believe, yeah,

861
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,840
Speaker 1: he can't. He can't do that. Reveron says, this is

862
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 1: what we want out of the game. You lad with

863
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: your helmet. You did not even attempt to wrap it up.

864
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: Your arms were down at your sides. You were taking

865
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 1: that out of the game. Everyone that keeps responding like, well,

866
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 1: the running back is lower in his head and look,

867
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: it's like, no, you're missing the point. All that matters

868
00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: is are you trying to tackle him with your helmet

869
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: instead of like your arms. Basically it so it doesn't

870
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: matter what the other guy that well, you know the

871
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: play you're referring to that I believe was in Washington,

872
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: the Washington game. That's where it's questionable because if a

873
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: guy seems to be going leading with the shoulder and

874
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: then a running back gets low and it doesn't matter

875
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,320
Speaker 1: because because it doesn't matter that he hit helmet the helmet.

876
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,760
Speaker 1: It just mattered that all he did was launched himself

877
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:23,480
Speaker 1: with his head down. He did not launch himself. I

878
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 1: mean he put himself with his head down. He didn't

879
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 1: try to use his arm, he didn't try to do

880
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: I gotta wrap up. I'm nervous about it, that's all.

881
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 1: I see what I am too. I think we have

882
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: a lot of common ground on this. Yeah, anyway, next

883
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 1: question from Rafael at Rafael Underscore one oh two. Who

884
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: is in the league to be Chris Wesling's best man?

885
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 1: And can I throw my hat into the rays? I

886
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: don't think so, Rafael, But I won't speak for you

887
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,879
Speaker 1: to speak for us. I don't want him to get

888
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,839
Speaker 1: a big head because it's already big. But my brother

889
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,439
Speaker 1: Nick is currently in the lead. I mean, it really

890
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: couldn't get any bigger. I don't even think it's his

891
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,920
Speaker 1: head is so big. He's essentially like created another character

892
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 1: that he lives inside of, while his head is just

893
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: absolutely true. He has decided to face the world by

894
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 1: creating his own world. I love Nick. I'm a guy

895
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: to having a wedding part a great hang. You're never

896
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:18,919
Speaker 1: going to be bored around him. Salt of the earth,

897
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: very smart guy, Like everything about him is great. This

898
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,839
Speaker 1: is an interesting race though, because you have so many brothers. Yeah, yeah,

899
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 1: he's he's um. You know, it's some are bigger long shots.

900
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 1: If I was, he wouldn't be the best man. But

901
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 1: over the last years he's really, let's be real, he

902
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 1: seems like the brother. He seems like the best brother.

903
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: Who's just look, it just seems like he's there. He's good.

904
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: Especially there's going to be a bachelor party, yes or no?

905
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 1: I think there's been talked to that we might just

906
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: go up to Big Bear for a weekend orstand you

907
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: always so sad I can't go to that. I generally

908
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 1: hate bachelor parties with a passion with the bachelor party.

909
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 1: It's good to have like a wild card guy. There's

910
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 1: always if you have one wild card guy, it can

912
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,759

913
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: Nick is kind of wild card. Here's what I can

914
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,759

930
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:17,720

931
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:23,160

932
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 1: the bachelor party. Thanks, this is great. No exotic dancers,

933
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:32,720
Speaker 1: he said no? Come on Anthony at eight to low eleven.

934
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 1: How much did a t N pay for Connie Fox

935
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 1: to come back on the show. I guess I have

936
00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,319
Speaker 1: to talk to our representation about that. Yeah. I don't

937
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:43,879
Speaker 1: handle money stuff. Uh. Jonathan star at Jonathan Underscore Star.

938
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 1: If you could do a life swap for one game day,

939
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 1: which player coach would you be? I don't know if

940
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,759
Speaker 1: we've done this one before, but obviously Joe Willie name

941
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 1: it January nine, Super Bowl three. Oh so this is

942
00:50:55,760 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: historical one player, one game. Wow hard. I want to

943
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:02,799
Speaker 1: be raising the finger at the Orange Bowl and then

944
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:08,319
Speaker 1: all the fun that happened afterwards. That's tough to beat. Yeah,

945
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:10,839
Speaker 1: because I'm like, if it's just the life, like Tom

946
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,239
Speaker 1: Brady or Giselle, I would be Giselle. But I guess

947
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: that doesn't count. Would you be Giselle after West? Well?

948
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: Where when would you be Brady? I think Tom Braby

949
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: my husband Ken catch the ball too. Yeah, I would

950
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 1: be That's one of my favorite Patriots moments. It's a

951
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: kind of overlooked. When Gisel railed against West Welcer Superman

952
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: breaking point. I love that she had a point. Uh No,

953
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: that's I can't I can't think of a better one

954
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:43,280
Speaker 1: than Joe Namath in that situation, which changed the history

955
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: of the NFL. That's a good one. Um. I mean,

956
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure Joe Namath was having some fun later that

957
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 1: night Miami and then the next seventy three nights years.

958
00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: What about an owner, I would maybe switch lives with

959
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: an owner. Surprising Joyce, You're just like, yeah, yeah, I'd

960
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 1: be cranky before Rams scenes last year. I'd like to

961
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: be a sixty seven year old white man Jeffrey Laurie straight.

962
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:19,000
Speaker 1: Strange choice. I wonder a grandfather. Um. Not really about

963
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 1: Tom Brady after beat the Rams and he's on the podium, like,

964
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,040
Speaker 1: if I could beat Tom Brady though for one game,

965
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 1: I think it would be the Seahawks, though I think

966
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:32,319
Speaker 1: that was the one where he probably enjoyed that one

967
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:39,359
Speaker 1: the most, where that felt like the best. Um, let's

968
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: see what would be the lowest point one? What would

969
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,840
Speaker 1: be the person that you would absolutely not want to

970
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 1: switch lives with. Tom Brady eighteen and one. Oh that's

971
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:53,919
Speaker 1: good that Yeah, this, I don't want to That would

972
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,800
Speaker 1: feel like a mean answer. I don't want to go there. Yeah, okay,

973
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 1: just like I just bade a Dan for that, we've

974
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: sex makes it into the ft. Nate Peterman the first

975
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 1: half of the year himself a hole like the SpongeBob gift, brutal. Yeah,

976
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 1: I think he's a slight favorite to start Week one

977
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: right now. There's also Tony Saragosa was on Howard Stern

978
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 1: a few years back and he told the story of

979
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 1: pooping himself on the field and having to waddle back

980
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: to the locker room. I think I don't want to

981
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 1: be that pukin and the Super Bowl might band might

982
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 1: be up there last one. Matthew Erdman at Maddie Matty,

983
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: if you were Brian with the gunst good job, General Madamer.

984
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 1: The Packers, what would your Khalil Mack trade package look like?

985
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 1: Is there Khalil Mackpackers buzz and m there is Okay,

986
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 1: it was mentioned, I believe in the broadcast last night.

987
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: It's stupid. I'm not buying it. I'm not buying it.

988
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of KILLI Kevin Harland, there's all these

989
00:53:56,680 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack trade articles with absolutely no reporting the Raiders

990
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: are even remotely considering. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, I

991
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:06,239
Speaker 1: tend to agree with Greg here that there's smoke but

992
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 1: no fire. Uh what would it? Would it be a

993
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:12,360
Speaker 1: first rounder? Right? You had to start with you have

994
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: to be a couple maybe first and first in a second,

995
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: give him one of these. I mean, I like the

996
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 1: look because of their young secondary. They're starting Kevin King,

997
00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 1: they're starting Gy or Alexander Jackson. Just Jackson had a

998
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 1: good game. But I guess you could maybe throw in

999
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: one of those. You've got so many young cornerbacks I

1000
00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 1: want to throw I don't know, like what it's gonna

1001
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: cost a lot to get clear? Yea. And of course, yeah,

1002
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: Kevin Harlan, what do you have to say about what

1003
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:45,799
Speaker 1: Greg has to say? What it is a little heat there.

1004
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:49,000
Speaker 1: That's it from the mailbag. One last note, Uh meant

1005
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 1: to hit it during the the Redskins Jets. We'll see

1006
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 1: about the Monday Night football team. Boom Booker. McFarland seems

1007
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,080
Speaker 1: like a really nice dude when they would throw it

1008
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,080
Speaker 1: down to him a lot. He seemed to be prepared,

1009
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: but not especially dynamic. Jason Witten is not immediately like

1010
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: Tony Romo hit the ground running as a star. Witten

1011
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 1: was nervous. We love you Shrek, Peter Shregar, but no,

1012
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 1: Witten is not gonna be better than Romo? Is that what?

1013
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 1: He was a little tight. I thought Bugger was great,

1014
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 1: though we got more out of Booger than I did

1015
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,080
Speaker 1: a bog The booker was like on a lift. Well, yeah,

1016
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 1: my big takeaway is that he's essentially in the booth

1017
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 1: because he was talking. I mean he was in the

1018
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,320
Speaker 1: mix talking throughout the game as much as almost a

1019
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:35,960
Speaker 1: guy in the booth. So I thought that was interesting.

1020
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 1: I thought he was really good. I did too, I

1021
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,560
Speaker 1: liked I mean fine, he was fine, I mean better

1022
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 1: than Tony. He said some interesting things during That's all

1023
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:47,759
Speaker 1: you're looking for there, But you knew what you're looking for.

1024
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: Witten is star quality. A little tight, but you got

1025
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:55,279
Speaker 1: to give it to and he just looked tight. He

1026
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,600
Speaker 1: looked a little nervous. Well, his suit was tight, but

1027
00:55:57,680 --> 00:55:59,799
Speaker 1: I was nice it was tailored like that. Yeah, I

1028
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:01,680
Speaker 1: think he's got new hair too. I think he got

1029
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,879
Speaker 1: I thought I thought he was. It was pretty done

1030
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: up top by the end of his career when you

1031
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: take his helmet off and now he has like a

1032
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:14,279
Speaker 1: very neat right. I think there's something take away as

1033
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,879
Speaker 1: something's going, which I'm I get it. You work on TV,

1034
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,400
Speaker 1: it's pet you want to have a full head of hair.

1035
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 1: A lot of guys do it. I'm not taking shots

1036
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 1: of Win. I'm just saying I noticed you know, you're

1037
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,640
Speaker 1: right as good as Kevin Colbert is at draft in

1038
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,600
Speaker 1: wide receivers Dan's skillet. Noticing changes in a person's face

1039
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:36,360
Speaker 1: or hair is right up there. It's borderline impeccable. Thanks.

1040
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: I really appreciate that, man. Um. Looking forward to going

1044
00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: a good boy. He's a good boy. He just like

1045
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: gets nervous. He gets nervous around kids because kids like

1046
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 1: tug on their tails and stuff, and he's like does

1047
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 1: he does? He gets snippy. He's never but I just

1048
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 1: I am more of the paradoid one. Alright, being proactive.
