If you missed Chris collins Worth last hour, 0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:16.479 he was great, had some really really great analysis of 0:00:16.560 --> 0:00:19.880 the Packers and Josh Allen And if you missed any 0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:21.960 of our interviews, you can go to Dan Patrick dot com. 0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:24.239 We will bring back some of Chris's comments. Coming up 0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.000 a little bit later on. There was a UFC fight 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:30.600 over the weekend with Connor McGregor being knocked out. Ariel 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:32.879 hell Wanni, who covers this sport for the Mothership, will 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:35.040 join us. Coming up a little bit later on this hour. 0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:37.880 Your phone calls are welcome, as we always do every Monday, 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:39.879 best and worst of the weekend, which is saw that 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.880 you liked you didn't like, And we say good morning 0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.600 to our radio and TV partner, our TV partners, Peacock 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:50.840 Radio partners numbering almost four hundred cities around America. When 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:52.960 Aaron Rodgers won his first Super Bowl was back in 0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:57.000 twenty eleven, Packers fans probably thought this is the first amending. 0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.400 But the NFL can be fickle, can be cruel. And 0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:03.400 even though Aaron Rodgers has played at an MVP level, 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:06.559 Green Bay has fallen short in the playoffs time after 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.800 time after time they've gotten to the NFC title games. 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:13.840 Rodgers can be brilliant, but that's still not always enough, 0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:17.399 and we saw that yesterday against the Buccaneers. After the game, 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:20.520 he certainly didn't look like himself. Sound like himself. He's 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:24.000 usually pretty even keeled, a little bit snarky, sarcastic, but 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:27.720 he looked defeated, as he said, gutted. No matter what 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.200 he does, though, the pack they keep hitting a wall 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.960 and Packers fans during the game yesterday and even after 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:37.560 the game, we're reliving the draft of Jordan Love. If 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:39.800 we only would have taken an offensive tackle or a 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.800 cornerback or a tight end. Now you got a problem 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:47.640 with a Jordan Love draft. Huh. Well, I don't know 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.680 if Aaron Rodgers gets back to this place. This is 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:54.720 an MVP season. You had Tom Brady and company coming 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:59.440 to your place for the NFC title game. But you 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:03.240 know you got to have credit to Tampa's defense. Tampa's 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.800 defense won that game yesterday. In my opinion, we've seen 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:10.560 other great quarterbacks have similar journeys here. You know, Brady's 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:14.520 the outlier. But Brett fav won only one Super Bowl, 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.400 Drew Brees one only one, Peyton Manning one two, but 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:21.320 more of a bystander in that second one. But Rogers, 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:24.639 I don't know. He's down, he's out. Does he want 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.480 to stay in Green Bay? He seemed to have a 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:30.720 cryptic message when he was on the podium yesterday. When 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:32.760 he's playing well, he makes the NFL a whole lot 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.960 more fun. But all he asked to is look across 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.960 the line of scrimmage and see Tom Brady is going 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:39.720 to the Super Bowl at the age of forty three 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.880 and Rogers is just thirty seven. I say just thirty 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.000 seven because that's the way we look at quarterbacks now, 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.880 and by comparison, he's six years younger than Tom Brady. 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:53.800 Hopefully he makes another run at a trophy soon, but 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:58.360 yesterday wasn't to be. Here's Aaron Rodgers on what is 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:02.240 next after this loss. There's a lot of unknowns going 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.240 into this offseason now. They just I'm gonna have to 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:08.240 take some time away for sure and clear my head 0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:11.040 and just kind of see what's going on with everything. 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.720 But it's pretty tough right now, especially thinking about the 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:17.639 guys that may or may not be here next year. 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:21.639 There's always changed as to only constant this business. It's 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.320 really tough to get to this point, really really tough, 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:29.360 especially with the only being one bye week in the playoffs. 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:32.440 It's a grind just to get to this point. And 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:35.560 that makes the finality of it all kind of hits 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.560 you like a ton of bricks. That's why it's a 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:44.600 gutting and feeling in your stomach. That's what hit me 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:48.839 because I wanted to leave that in because I think 0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:51.960 it was just the enormity sort of hit him there 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:56.040 where you just you want to exhale. You want to 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.360 try to not say something you're going to regret. You know, 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:03.080 if you're thirty years of age, twenty five years of age, 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.800 you think you're going to be back, you expect to 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:09.560 be back. He's thirty seven and this was a very 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:12.440 good year for the Packers. You have to win the 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:16.680 home game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and then Tom 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:20.240 Brady throws three interceptions on three consecutive drives and you 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.640 don't take advantage of them, and then the opportunity with 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.200 a little more than two minutes to go, got to 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.360 score a touchdown at some point, and you decide to 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.719 kick the field goal. Chris Collinsworth had a great breakdown 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:34.840 on this, and if you didn't hear it, you can 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.200 listen to the entire interview, or I'll bring it back 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:40.120 a little bit later on. Kevin King did not have 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.880 a good day at all, as he gave up a 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:46.720 couple of touchdowns, including Scottie Miller sprinting right past him 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:51.279 for another touchdown. Gave up one earlier with Mike Evans 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:55.800 that was the buccaneers first touchdown, had a pass interference call. 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.600 Leonard Fournette blasted King with his shoulder than rote him 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.719 into the d zone to give Tampa Bay the lead. 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.960 But it was not a good afternoon for the defensive back. 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:09.719 But I'm going to give a lot of credit to 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.760 the defense for the Buccaneers. For the second consecutive week, 0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:16.880 they won a football game, and Brady took advantage. Took 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:20.719 advantage in the first half. He looked like somebody had 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.080 taken over his body and one of those bodies swapped 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:26.320 movies in the second half because I kept going, where's 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:30.000 Tom Brady, because that's not Tom Brady. But they made 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:31.960 some plays when they needed to make them. And now 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.320 you have a home game for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:38.159 By the way, they're underdogs at home right now. The 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.680 lines around three, three and a half. And I was 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.920 wondering if Kansas City was hosting the super Bowl, they 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.520 would probably be a six and a half point favorite. 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.920 You know, Tampa is hosting the super Bowl, but let's 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:52.240 say Kansas City was hosting, would they be a touchdown favorite? 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.360 And that's probably the case. But Tom doesn't mind being 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.120 an underdog. He's been an underdog quite a few times. 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:02.600 So I'm sure worst case scenario, you're still playing at 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.320 home and you don't have to go to Lambeau. Yeah, Paul, 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.200 I was thinking about this on the drive in. If 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.200 the Packers had somehow made to come back and won 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:13.120 the game, what we'll be talking about today. How critical 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.359 would we have been at the three second half interceptions 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:18.200 to Brady And would he get the tag of losing 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.080 this game like he's getting the credit for winning this game. Yeah, 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.599 he doesn't deserve the credit for winning the game. This 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:27.719 is a team win. It's not going to be presented 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:32.960 that way because you know these shows, TV shows, radio, shows. 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:38.400 Nobody's interested in talking about Scottie Miller or the defensive 0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:41.800 front or Shack Barrett not going to happen. It's all 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:44.520 about Brady. And you know the same can be said 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.840 for the Kansas City Chiefs with Patrick Mahomes. This is 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:50.599 about Patrick Mahomes. No, it should be about the entire 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:54.880 Kansas City Chiefs. That secondary was wonderful yesterday. They really were. 0:06:55.839 --> 0:07:00.679 Travis Kelsey was brilliant. We expect Mahomes to be great. 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.280 But I gave you a stat last week might have 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:07.360 been Thursday or Friday, and I said, Buffalo this year 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:11.360 during the regular season allowed more receptions for the tight 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:15.720 end than any other team in football. They stayed true 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:20.640 to that stat because Travis Kelsey was wonderful. Ye had 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:25.120 thirteen catches, he was targeted fifteen times, and he's beating 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.840 defensive backs. Used to be your tight end would be 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:32.200 on a linebacker. That's not the case because they're so good, 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:36.880 so athletic, and Kelsey is going up against cornerbacks in 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:42.360 single coverage. And because you've got to decide who we doubling, well, 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.480 you can't double both of them, Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelsey, 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:49.360 but you have to have the who are they doubling 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.400 this time? Like, you have to have some doubt and 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:55.360 you have to be aggressive with Kansas City. Buffalo did 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:57.680 not look like they were on the same playing field 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.080 in more ways than one with Kansas City last great year. 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:05.160 But Kansas City is just different. They've been through this, 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.840 Buffalo has not. And this might be one of those 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:10.680 where next year or two years, three years down the road, 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:15.520 Josh Allen talks about this moment, this learning moment. You know, 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:18.920 the Bulls had the Pistons, the Pistons had the Celtics. 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:21.280 You have these moments where you got to get through 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:24.600 them and then you never look back. But if you 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:31.120 don't beat Patrick Mahomes, you got to take advantage these opportunities. 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:34.880 But Cleveland will stand out to me this year because 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.400 I think they had a chance that they could have 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:39.840 beaten Patrick Mahomes. Well, they could have eaten the Chiefs. 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:43.000 If you can't meet Chad Henning and you have no 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:47.880 shot against Patrick Mahomes. But I still think, and it 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:50.720 was re emphasized to me yesterday by source that Mahomes 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:53.880 did not have a concussion. He was diagnosed as a concussion. 0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:57.240 Therefore he has to go through concussion protocol. The bigger 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:02.839 issue was Turftoe, and that's something that Buffalo never used 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:07.120 to their advantage. To make Patrick Mahomes run a little bit, 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:10.720 put pressure on him. Easier said than done. But man, 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.640 I got to live and die by being aggressive against him, 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:17.880 and Tampa will be aggressive against him absudlutely, but you 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:21.120 have to be all right. Phone calls welcome. We'll get 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:23.320 to those coming up. Mcloven. Do we have our poll question? 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:25.840 We start out with who's getting to a Super Bowl first? 0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:29.280 Josh Allen or Aaron Rodgers actually fifty three percent Josh Allen. 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.320 I think that we look at Buffalo as more of 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:42.360 a positive story today, and you know, Stefan Diggs was 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:47.120 a wonderful pick up. They they need a little bit 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:50.400 more potent running game here, but they have some playmakers 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.840 on that team. Yeah, I guess I can understand that 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.320 that here's Rogers having a magical season and you're playing 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:58.960 at home and you don't win, and you probably think 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.400 we're not going to get back anytime soon. The McLean Yeah, 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:03.839 I was going to ask, is there a sense that 0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:06.440 the Packers are gone as far as they can with Rogers? 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:10.480 I wouldn't say that. I think it'd be dangerous to 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.400 say that, because I think people wrote off Tom Brady 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:16.760 a year ago. The last couple of years. Oh, he's 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:19.600 not a leader. Remember all the negative things that came 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.160 out about Aaron Rodgers, Like it felt like every year 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.720 somebody would say something and then all of a sudden 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:28.600 it became exacerbated that boy, how did he? How did 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.720 he make it through this career, a Hall of Fame career, 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.240 And he's a terrible leader, and he doesn't take blame. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:37.640 And he had an MVP season. He's been written off before. 0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:40.360 It just the words that he said, and he was 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:44.000 picking them carefully about I don't know who's going to 0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:48.520 be back. He's under contract, yeah, Paul. Yeah. The Packers 0:10:48.520 --> 0:10:51.120 are twenty seven million dollars over the cap right now. 0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:53.319 Aaron Jones, the running back, he's a free agent. The 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.080 other running back, Jamal Williams, free agent. They're probably gonna 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.400 lose both those guys. And because that's why they took 0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:02.880 AJ Dillon. Yeah, that Corey Lindley, that center all pro 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:05.160 free agent, so they have to sign him. He's only 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:07.320 thirty years old. They got about six other free agents 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.120 that they're not gonna be able to sign. So this 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:13.199 Packer team's gonna lose probably four starters. And we talked 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.880 a lot about in the first half of our first 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:18.199 hour of the show about that, the second half of 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:20.640 two minutes to go and do you go for a touchdown? 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:23.199 And I would have gone for a touchdown, but I 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.880 would have treated the four downs differently than just throw 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:29.880 it into the end zone those three passes. And you know, 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.680 as Chris Collinsworth brought it up, did Aaron Rodgers know 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.520 on third down that they weren't going to go for 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.720 it on fourth down? And if he didn't, then that's 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.920 a big mistake by the Packers, because if I'm going 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:44.840 for it on fourth down, then I do run, I scramble, 0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:48.120 I go for it. But I didn't agree with it. 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:52.800 And you know, Matt Lafloor said, you know, he was 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.720 asked if he regretted kicking a field goal on fourth down. 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:58.560 He had this to say, Yeah, anytime it doesn't work out, 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.920 you always regret it. Right. It was just the circumstances 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:05.760 of having three shots coming away with no yards and 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.520 knowing that you not only need the touchdown, but you'd 0:12:08.520 --> 0:12:10.840 need the two points so the way I was looking 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:14.520 at it was essentially had four timeouts with the two 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.959 minute warning. You know, we knew we needed to get 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:18.840 a stop and I thought we were going to have 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:20.960 a stop there at the end, but you know, we 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:24.440 got called for the p PI. That didn't work out. 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:28.160 So I think anytime something doesn't work out, do you 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:33.840 regret it? Sure, I was critiquing the moment, not the result. 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:37.280 I was critiquing in the moment, saying, you know when 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:40.000 Aaron Rodgers going off the field and he's basically going, 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:43.800 what are we doing here? I think if you were 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.440 at home, you might have been doing the same thing. 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:48.320 I just wouldn't have had That wouldn't have been my 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:50.920 sequence of plays that I would have called if I 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:54.480 knew it was four down territory. You score a touchdown, Okay, 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:57.400 I can get a two point conversion. Now it looks 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.800 like we're going to play for overtime. You still got 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.320 to score touchdown at some point. You got to score 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:07.520 touchdown the field position game. I certainly understand that if 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.880 you don't get the touchdown, they get the ball at 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.760 the eight yard line. Okay, if I stop them, I 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.319 still have some timeouts, and I can still make another 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.199 go at scoring a touchdown in two point conversion. By 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:23.040 the way, Eric Fisher, the kentsas city chiefs, I believe 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.160 as a torn Achilles like that was one of those 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:29.280 Oh by the way, wait what just happened? Yeah, so 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.080 they're gonna be missing their starting tackles. And you saw 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.400 how much pressure Tampa Bay can bring. And if they 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.760 can do that with Aaron Rodgers, they're gonna be going 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.880 after Patrick Mahomes. All right, let me get to phone 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.000 calls here, Dave and Nova Scotia. Hi, Dave, good morning, 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:50.280 what's on your mind? Yeah? But Dan, just like you said, 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:53.120 Buck defense leading away just like the last time we 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:56.200 were successful in the playoffs. I mean, watching the defense 0:13:56.280 --> 0:14:00.000 come up just week after week has been huge, really 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.920 excited about two weeks. Wanted to get your take. So 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:05.480 having a Super Bowl party here in two weeks at 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:09.040 the Dave Cave um yesterday had in laws over, had 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:12.640 a serious marinade going on four letter words flying every 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.839 other play. What's your guys's take on having a crew 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.520 over watching the game? You know, family friends. Do you 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:20.720 live and die by the play or do you try 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:23.239 to sit back, calm and collect it and keep it professional. 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.360 Thanks for to call Danny. Well, if there's kids there, 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:29.880 then you know you got to have a kind of 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.840 a hall monitor there. How about a kids section and 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:37.840 an adult section. But I watched the game by myself. 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.080 That that way I can I don't have to wait 0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.680 in line for the bathroom. I can drink when I want, smoke, 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:48.040 smoke a cigar, I can yell. I don't have to 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:50.040 worry about any of that. But you might like to 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:53.440 hang out with people I don't like. I love, you know, 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:56.320 even when my wife does it. Drive by, how's the game? 0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:02.360 It's it's good, it's good? And and is that so? 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:07.920 Which one's brady? That that guy? Right? No, you've got 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.920 some knowledge. Gotta give her a little credit. I just 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:14.840 don't like when they go, oh it's seventeen to twenty seven, 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:18.360 Oh no, no, or something happens and then they want 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.640 an explanation of something that you know is going to 0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:23.640 take a couple of minutes. Yeah, I don't want you 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:25.960 coming down with a little more than two minutes to go? 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:31.000 Is Aaron Rodgers is facing a third night? So who's winning? 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.840 I hold on here, let me that's when you've grown 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:42.080 like Aaron Rodgers grown at the end of that cut. Yes, boy, 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:44.880 you've never been more right about anything. Watching the Super 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:46.720 Bowl by yourself, by yourself as the greatest thing in 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.360 the world. You got food, you got drinking off. I'm 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.720 okay with it. Yeah. My wife every years goes, do 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:53.520 you want to go over to the neighbors Jim he's 0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:57.880 having or my life will go Hey, I was thinking 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:02.280 about inviting. No oh no, no, no, don't na, no 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.040 need to you know, maybe something earlier in the day. 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:08.760 More than happy, But nah, I'm good. Ted and Tampa Ted, 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:12.920 we did it, Yes, sir, sure did and you're right. 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:17.560 It was a defense. We won the game yesterday, including 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:21.320 Todd Bowls, the defense coordinator. But you got to say 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:25.280 the difference. Tom may have not won the game yesterday, 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:28.960 but the difference this year between a losing record last 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:32.760 year going to the Super Bowl this year was Tampa Bay. 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:37.760 We do have your Super Bowl remote location set up. 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:41.160 We did sound checks yesterday, so whichever one of the 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:44.200 dants you want to send down, we're good. And then 0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.680 the worst of the day is as we were sitting 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:50.040 out watching the game yesterday, two of my guys got 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:55.760 kind of unsightly sunburns. So well, Thank you, Ted, thank 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:59.000 you for the invitation. I don't know if Ted ever 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:03.280 here's no very often in his job, but yeah, we're 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:06.480 not sending any Danage down to Tampa. I'd love to, 0:17:06.640 --> 0:17:10.000 but but we're not. Ted didn't bring up the offensive line. 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:13.280 Remember all those weeks that Ted would call in and say, oh, 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:17.240 their offensive line is terrible. I said, I'm assuming that 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:20.520 they'll address it, and I'm assuming the offensive line is 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.880 just a little bit better. Jeff and Detroit, then we'll 0:17:23.920 --> 0:17:27.159 take a break. Hey, Jeff, what's on your mind? Hey? 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:30.840 What up? Though? One time for chat Row. First of all, 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:33.840 saying goodbout the Matt Stafford is gonna be kind of hard, 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:36.480 But I kind of see it as like Justin Verlander 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:38.920 is setting him free and seeing what he can do. 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:42.720 Somebody is he went and on the World Series that 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.800 when he left it track. I'm honestly thinking you putting 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.399 Matt Staffing in a right situation. Think about it. He's 0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:50.359 never out of the game. He can go to the 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:53.120 full length of the field within a minute's time. He's 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:55.520 done it like two three times this year in a 0:17:56.240 --> 0:17:59.600 losing season under Matt. Patricia saw I'm figuring somebody's getting 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:02.880 a pretty pretty good a quarterback. I want to say 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:05.720 this though, and I feel very sorry for all Green 0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:08.560 Bay fans because the one thing about a football player 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:12.040 is they want to die on the field right there 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:14.159 in the end zone. I got a chance to go 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.920 to the super Bowl. You have got to let that 0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:20.000 play go. You can't kick it because I mean, what's 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:23.200 what's the alternative? And get the PI and they get 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.840 the purse the what's the name? And the game is 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:28.920 over with? You know what I'm saying that the game 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:32.240 was totally over with what personal interference call? So you 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:36.600 just I mean Aaron Rodgers making money, That's all I'm saying. 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.600 The man is one of the best quarterbacks ever. We 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:42.600 always say that. Let them prove it, all right, Thank you, Jeff. 0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:46.639 I love how every quarterback is the right fit for 0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:50.560 the Patriots. Matthew Stafford right fit for the Patriots. You know, 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:53.040 DeShawn Watson would be the right fit for the Patriots. 0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:55.399 Why is it every quarterback is the right fit for 0:18:55.400 --> 0:19:01.879 the Patriots. We don't say that about other teams. Brady 0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:05.600 wasn't the right fit for the Patriots, but every other quarterback, 0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.879 you know, I could see man Ryan right fit for 0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:12.080 the Patriots. Yes, McClean, you know who's getting a little 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:15.080 bit of that treatment too. Everybody fits with Kyle Shanahan 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:18.920 in the nine. Yes, that's true, except for their quarterback, 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:22.280 Jimmy Garoppolo. I love how you put DeShawn Watson there. 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:25.280 You put Matthew Stafford in a Kyle Shanahan offense, and 0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:29.560 I'm like, how many quarterbacks you got? You got one? Yeah, McLelland. 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:31.679 But it's funny because jimmyg actually does fit with the 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:36.520 Patriots in real life. Make that happen dead. Oh, I've 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.879 been saying that for a long time. I would just 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:41.280 find New England. It is to say, hey, Kyle, I 0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:43.679 gift wrap Jimmy two. You can have him back, and 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:46.680 then you guys can do whatever you want. And plus, 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:50.840 you know, the Lions announced that they're parting ways with 0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:54.399 Matthew Stafford, so you lose some leverage there. And I 0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:56.320 don't know what you have to give up to get 0:19:56.359 --> 0:20:00.000 Matthew Stafford, who, by the way, salary wise, is a bargain. 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:02.639 I mean, I get a proven quarterback. I don't know 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:04.960 about the medicals. That'll be the biggest thing when you 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:08.800 get team doctors looking at Matthew Stafford. How banged up 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:11.840 is he from all those years in Detroit? But are 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:13.840 you getting a first round pick? I had a source 0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:15.920 say you might get a second and a fourth for 0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:19.520 Matthew Stafford. But I don't know how he's valued. But 0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:23.320 at age thirty three, if I'm the Colts, you know 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:28.879 he fits right in. And with the Colts, Oh, they 0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:31.280 got a dome. He'll be at home there. All right, 0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:33.080 let me take a break. We'll give you our best 0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:35.080 and worst of the weekend. More phone calls coming up 0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:37.600 twenty one after the hour here on the Dan Patrick Show. 0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:42.679 I feel special though, I get to drive Mercedes Spence. 0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.720 And never in my wildest dreams when I was growing 0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:47.960 up that I'd ever think that I have a driver 0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:50.840 Mercedes Spence. If I did, it would be because I 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.240 stole it, or it was a friend. I was a 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:58.359 driver for somebody. Yeah. I never thought i'd have a 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:00.720 Mercedes Spence. I remember growing up one of my friend's 0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:04.120 parents had a Mercedes and you're like, you've made it.
