He had Kansas City. 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:32.000 We had one of our listeners from Cincinnati saying he'd 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.399 take a pie to the face if the Bengals lost. Well, 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:40.160 Bengals winning. First stop Cincinnati, and Seton has to track 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.760 down this gentleman and get a pie to the face 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:47.280 along the road and then goes to Nashville, Memphis, Arkansas, 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:51.720 albert querqueing I think Vegas is in there, Phoenix, Arizona 0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:55.200 is in there, then Los Angeles and parts in between. 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:58.160 What could go wrong?

And we 0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:08.000 say good morning to our radiophiliate's iHeartRadio. Fox Sports Radio 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.680 lineup coming up in a little bit. We'll talk to 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:14.120 Carson Palmer is Monday Pit stop Marcus Spears from the 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:17.720 Mothership will check in with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:21.320 their future at the quarterbacking position. Have a play of 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.600 the day, poll question stat of the Day, and yes, 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:27.960 Fritzie does have a limerick based off the conference title games. 0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.600 I do thank you Ton. Two years ago, the Bengals 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.760 had the number one overall pick. Dolphins really wanted that 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:39.079 number one overall pick because their owner wanted Joe Burrow. 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.560 The Bengals used it on Burrow last year Burrow tore 0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.959 his ACL That was in Week eleven. Cincinnati would go 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:48.560 on to win just four games. Now the Bengals are 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.240 going to the Super Bowl, and this weekend's win over 0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:53.560 the Chiefs is one of the bigger upsets in AFC 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:57.880 Championship history. Now, the Bengals were only seven point underdogs, 0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.639 But I think the perception of this is is all 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.400 the Chiefs. They're going to the super Bowl. I mean 0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:06.679 the Bengals. Yeah, you're gonna get by them like you 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:09.920 already got by Buffalo. You got Mahomes, This offense is 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:14.120 playing great, You're at home. This is a foregone conclusion. 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:18.400 And it certainly looked like that twenty one to three 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:22.440 and then, being a Cincinnati native, I just thought, I 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.840 don't want them to get embarrassed. I don't want people 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:28.400 to go all the Bungals. I text Paulie and I said, 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.280 all I'm asking for if you say they don't win, 0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:33.799 but they don't get embarrassed, I'll sign up for that. 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:37.160 I just didn't want that to happen again where people 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:40.440 go the same old Bungals. They're not the same old Bungals. 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:43.640 Because Cincinnati is going to its first Super Bowl since 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.520 nineteen eighty nine. And the key is they got a 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.400 great quarterback, and they got a great wide receiver, and 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:53.320 they got a couple of wide receivers, and that secondary 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:57.160 played extremely well in the second half because as great 0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:00.440 as Mahomes was, now don't say Mahomes has had a 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:04.120 bad day. Cincinnati's defense made Mahomes have a bad day. Like, 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.880 at least be fair to them. The Bengals. What they 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.560 did is really difficult. You're a bottom feeder and now 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.280 you're going to the super Bowl and I know that 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:17.520 the perception is going to be the Rams at home 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:22.280 and all that firepower, and like this was what Cincinnati 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:26.080 has faced all year long. And I don't think that 0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:28.719 Cincinnati is going to be shocked by anything. Joe Burrow 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:30.880 doesn't seem like he's going to be shocked by anything, 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.040 Like they don't know the even if they know the history, 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:36.040 it's like, hey, I just got here. I've only been 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.880 here two years. I mean, I got a Heisman National title. 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.560 Now I'm in the Super Bowl. Why this isn't that difficult? 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:48.120 Well it is. But here's Joe Burrow on what he 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.480 was thinking when the Bengals were down twenty one to three. 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:52.880 I don't know if you ever want to get down 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.000 twenty one to three. I said it earlier in the 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.200 year when we started, you know, making some of these comebacks. 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.920 I never feel like we're out of it. No, obviously, 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.800 twenty one three isn't exactly the most exciting position to 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:07.479 be in. I don't think you want to be down 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.640 twenty No, you don't want to be down twenty one 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:13.680 to three in Kansas City against Patrick Mahomes and it 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.760 felt like the Golden State Warriors that you know, first 0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:19.200 ten minutes, eight minutes of the game, and it was 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:23.000 so quickly twenty one to three, and I kept thinking, 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:26.520 there's going to be a moment if the Bengals are 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.279 going to make this competitive. There has to be a 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:31.679 moment and they had a couple of moments there, and 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.400 you know, Kansas City not getting points at the end 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.120 of the first half, and I thought, oh my gosh, 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:41.440 they didn't even get a field goal here, and you're thinking, well, 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:43.440 is that going to cost them? Will that come back 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:46.120 and haunt them? Maybe not, But it's one of those 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.520 that you just sort of file away and then you 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.799 started to walk because you know kans City was getting 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.159 the ball. Second half, You're thinking, man, if they pile 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:57.039 on points a touchdown, then they get the ball back 0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:01.600 start third quarter. It was just that you can see 0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:06.240 momentum change right in front of you. And it's strange 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:09.760 because you wouldn't think, like, hey, I'm watching this right now, 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:13.120 like it's tangible. And that was the feeling when I'm watching. 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:17.400 I thought, Cincinnati, you know, it feels like they can 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:21.200 go toe to toe and I thought that, you know, 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.920 when they tried to score with Tyreek Hill, Uh, you know, 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:28.120 Cincinnati made an apple, made a great stomp and then 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:31.320 I thought, you're gonna end up with nothing here. But 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:36.240 here's Patrick mahomes On putting the blame on himself. They 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.080 had a good game plan. They were doing this a 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:39.840 lot of similar stuff in the first half. We were 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:41.720 we were just icing at a higher level. Mean, they 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:43.920 stayed with it, they fought. I mean that's that's a 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:45.640 good football team. But it takes a lot of a 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:47.920 fight to stay in a game whenever you're down like that. 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:49.720 But I mean, I gotta be better. I mean, when 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:51.360 you're up twenty one at three at one point a game, 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:52.839 you can't lose it. And I mean, I'll put that 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:56.400 on myself. I talked to an NFL source last night 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:58.280 and I said, you know, what did you make of 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:01.320 Mahomes first half? Second half? He said, I'm going back 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:05.440 looking through the tape. Did something happen to Patrick Mahomes 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:08.159 in the game that would have had him off a 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.920 little bit because he goes I don't know if he 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:13.960 got hit, there's an injury, he said. But it was 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:18.040 so different first half second half that I thought, you know, 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:22.840 he's not himself. It's one thing to scramble, it's anothering 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.560 he wasn't doing his typical runs. But the source said, 0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:27.640 I'm going back to look through the tape. I just 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:31.320 want to see did something happen to Mahomes because you 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.480 just don't expect him to be that bad, and he 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:36.560 was in the second half. But I'm going to give 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:40.000 the Bengals defense, their secondary a whole lot of credit. 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.520 And he should have been picked off a couple of times. 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:45.679 He got picked off, you know, twice, but you should 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:48.000 have been picked off a couple of times, Yampoling. There's 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:49.200 a bunch of plays, like you said at the end 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:52.320 of the first half. Bengals get that p Ryan touchdown 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.560 on that screen. Great play, and then Mahomes got the 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.640 ball back with a minute five left, went right down 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.320 the field. They had first and one at the one, 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:03.000 nine seconds left, and I think Romo said, well, two 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:04.800 passes in in the end zone, quick passage, maybe you 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.960 can get three because what you can't do is be 0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:09.280 down in the field to play with no timeouts. And 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.520 they second goal at the one. They threw that little 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:13.480 i don't know what you call it, the screen to 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.360 Till and he got tackled the field to play. Yeah, 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:18.680 and then Kim comes back for the second half. They 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.720 have five plays and punt for Kansas City, punt by 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.640 cob By, the Bengals, punt by the Chiefs, and then 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:29.240 field goal by the Bengals, interception by the Bengals im 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:33.080 back to back series. Yeah, it was just weird. The 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:37.240 momentum there and something like kans City had it all 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:38.959 going where it was almost like you're gonna have to 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:40.920 get forty points if you're gonna beat us here in 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:46.680 Kansas City, and Bengals held tough. They did. That's resilient 0:08:47.000 --> 0:08:49.400 and you just don't expect that from a young team 0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:52.560 on the road. And then the overtime and that Kansas 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.800 City crowd, you know, when they won the coin to us, 0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:57.200 it's like we're going to the super Bowl, like we're 0:08:57.200 --> 0:09:01.160 gonna score a touchdown here, and you know, you're just 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:06.840 watching this going maybe they're not. And you had Joe 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:11.640 Burrow extending, keeping drives alive, scrambling, they made the big 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:14.719 plays when they needed to, and I was. I was 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:17.840 speechless after that game. I truly was. And a lot 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:22.160 of my family from Ohio still in Ohio, and my 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.760 sister who lives in Cleveland text me at twenty one 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:27.200 to three and she goes, is anybody crying? I am? 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:30.439 And I'm like, oh my god, I'm gonna talk her 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:33.160 down off the ledge because I'm always saying you have 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:37.480 a chance, you have a chance, and we love to go, oh, 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:41.120 they have no chance. It's like Tom Brady had a 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:44.560 chance against the Rams at twenty seven three, had a chance. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.160 He didn't win, but he had a chance. The Bengals 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:49.800 down twenty one three. You have a chance. You're on 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:53.640 the field, and even watching it, I went, I guess 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:55.640 they have My wife goes, you really believe they got 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:57.920 a chance. I go, I gotta tell my family this. 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:00.280 You know, I'm the one that keeps saying. And then 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:03.640 you're watching, I go, I can't imagine Patrick Mahomes is 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:05.880 going to blow this lead, Like I just can't imagine this. 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:08.440 He did, Yeah, pole the play that would have drove 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:09.960 me crazy if I was a Bengals fan. I think 0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:11.839 it was a second play of overtime, second and ten. 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:16.240 Mahomes throws to Robinson and it was wide and Eli Apple, 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:18.800 the defensive back, had an easy pick, somewhat easy pick 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:20.440 and it could have been a pick sex. I remember 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.319 thinking to myself, Oh, that's that's that's the one that 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:24.079 they're going to talk about. And then I think as 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.880 the next play, he threw long to hell Bates, the 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:29.440 safety tips to Von Bell and you're like, oh, it 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:32.920 actually went the Bengals way, dude. Man, the Rams came 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.079 back to beat the forty nine ers last night, they 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.560 finally solved the forty nine ers, and this kind of 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.959 had what we thought we would see that it was 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:45.840 gonna be a slugfest. Cooper Cup was gonna be big. 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:49.040 Jimmy Garoppolo, you want the game on the line in 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:51.560 you know, the ball in his hands if you're the Rams, 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:54.080 and um, you know they got what they asked for there. 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:56.560 But it was ten seven and half to. It's one 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.880 of those where I went, how is San Francisco leading 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:03.720 this game? Not being blown out? Because the Rams made 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:07.480 it look so easy, and you know, they sort of 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.960 make you play ugly. But you know, that's probably the 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:15.360 last game for Jimmy Garoppolo, and under pretty difficult conditions 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.520 because he knew that he was this was his last 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:21.959 year and he was auditioning for his next stop. And 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.240 you know, those last two minutes, those are rough. Here's 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:29.240 his head coach Kyle Shanahan on Jimmy g I don't 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:30.920 think he could have done anything else. You know, on 0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:32.960 the first down he went the right spot, we got 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:34.840 a ball tipped I think by ninety one. On the 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.000 second down, they manned everyone up and he tried to 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:39.560 throw it away to the flat third and thirteen looked 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:41.360 like Aaron just got in there fast, and he tried 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:43.320 to break away and tried not to take a sack 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.200 to make it fourth in twenty or whatever it would 0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:48.440 have been that happens. Yeah, I'm not going to put 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:50.480 all this on Jimmy G. I didn't put all of 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:52.839 it on Jimmy G when they would win, and I'm 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.280 not going to put it all on him when they lose. Now, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:59.760 that give credit to San Francisco for, you know, having 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:04.920 that style and having a quarterback who's limited. Deebo Samuel's wonderful. 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:07.240 I hope he gets paid whatever he can get paid. 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.920 He's wonderful to watch the Niners. That defense, that defensive 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:12.959 front is going to be a force to be reckoned 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:17.000 with for years to come. But the ms Rams got 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:21.319 star power. Here's their head coach, Sean McVeigh. Today was 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.600 a great sign of the resilience. You know we talked about. 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:26.240 That's one of the things that's kind of embodied this group. 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:29.360 You go down seventeen seven doesn't look good, but the 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.560 guys just stayed in the moment, one play at a time. 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.520 There was just so many great plays today by great 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.400 players and really happy to be associated with these guys. 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:41.480 And we got one more. Since the NFL implemented postseason seeding, 0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:43.520 that was back in nineteen seventy five, this is the 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.280 first Super Bowl without a number one or a number 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:49.960 two seed. And then we went fifty four years without 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.760 a team having a home field advantage in the Super Bowl. 0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:57.480 Now back to back years Tampa and now Los Angeles. Fritzie, 0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:02.880 what's the poll question today? Who had the worst on Sunday? Mahomes, Jakwaski, 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.520 Tarts not getting that interception for the Niners that's could 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:09.240 have put them away. That's someone to strongly consider it because, gee, 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.520 Browns fans, Lions fans, who had the worst day on Sunday? 0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:20.920 Browns fans? Is interesting that that's a toughie. You trade 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.520 Odell Beckham. He's in the Super Bowl. The team that's 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.560 supposed to finish the last in your division is in 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:31.839 the Super Bowl. Yeah, I would say Mahomes because of 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:34.920 what's at stake when we're talking about greatness, that that 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:38.400 we want to annoint him as the goat like or 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:42.600 one of the goats, or he's in the conversation. Um, 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.120 you know, Mahomes in the second half hurt the Kansas 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:50.559 City Chiefs. The Bengals did a great job in controlling him, 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.920 but he he he heard him. I would say, Mahomes 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:56.640 because you would be going to three super Bowls in 0:13:56.679 --> 0:14:00.520 a row. And here's Tom Brady on the way out, 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.800 Roethlisberger on the way out. Breeze has gotten like you know, 0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:07.200 Aaron Rodgers, who knows where he's going. Mahomes is sort 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:11.360 of in an interesting window here because we love to 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:14.960 move on like we've seen Mahomes. And then he reminds 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:17.880 us like that scramble that he had that touchdown in 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:19.880 the first quarterway through it to Kelsey and you go, 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.920 nobody makes that. Nobody makes that. So now all of 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:26.360 a sudden, Joe Burrow comes in, and Justin Herbert comes in, 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:30.200 and Josh Allen is in there, and now Mahomes is 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:35.160 sort of gonna drift a little bit into his late twenties. 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:39.400 And this is going on with Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:43.120 sort of drifted into that no man's land where you're 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.960 still talking about Brady and Rogers. You're not talking about 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.360 Russell Wilson, and then you're talking about Mahomes and Josh 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.560 Allen and the So Mahomes is going to kind of 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:55.920 drift into that area doesn't mean he's not gonna still 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.920 be great and lead them to super Bowls. But here 0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:02.440 was a guy who could get his second super Bowl, 0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:06.320 go to three in a row. That's heady stuff. So 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.840 I would say him. You know, Lions fans may go, 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:12.960 you know, we're happy for Matthew Stafford. Now they may 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:17.320 say we're unhappy we have Jared Goff, but we're happy 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:21.280 that he succeeded. He gave us everything he could. Maybe 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:23.760 I don't want to speak for the Lions fans, but 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:25.680 I could see it that they're going, hey, you know what, 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:29.320 he's one of us. It's okay. He didn't want to stay. 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.280 We didn't want him to stay. We wanted to move on. 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:33.600 It was you know, it's one of those where you know, 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.880 marriage breaks up and you actually stay friends. Now, maybe 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.360 it's that Browns fans is kind of sneaky. Garoppolo. If 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:42.400 he had gotten to the Super Bowl, it would have 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:45.240 been all we would have heard is you know, all 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:49.440 he does is win games. Okay, you played fifty eight 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.600 solid minutes, but you got to play sixty solid minutes 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:54.720 and he wasn't able to do that. So I would 0:15:54.720 --> 0:16:00.640 say probably Mahomes because what was at stake? What other 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:03.280 poll questions you got? We had? Who? Hell? You know what? 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.720 Let me take a break and then we'll come back 0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:09.600 more poll questions.

We'll take a break this Monday. I'll 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.920 pumped up, although a little sad, a little sad see Seaton. 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:24.320 We're gonna see him again. I know, I know, but 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:26.160 just to see him go on a road trip with 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:30.040 the French kid and a little sad, a little sad. 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.960 It's like, you know, I'm waving goodbye to him. Yeah, Pa, 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:36.320 I gave him like trail mixing some water to make 0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:38.480 sure in case of emergency, you got something. They'm like, 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:40.400 what am I doing? And I'm saying to him, hey, 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:42.480 you make sure you call me, let me know when 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.960 you get to Cincinnati. Yes, Tom, and he's gonna check 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:48.280 in with us, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes he is 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.240 we'll take a break back after this.

We'll settle 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:14.440 on a poll question, Play of the Day, Stata the day, 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:18.280 all that forthcoming the big news or there was big 0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:22.320 news on Saturday when it came out ESPN, Jeff Darlington 0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:26.160 and Adam Schefter reported that Tom Brady was retiring. And 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.920 then I was told, well, this didn't come from Tom 0:19:28.960 --> 0:19:31.760 Brady's side of the equation. This came from somebody, probably 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.160 in management. Do you have the exact tweet there, Paul, 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:36.200 And yes, this is two thirty in the afternoon Saturday 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:38.679 from Adam Schefter and Jeff Darlington. Quote, Tom Brady is 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:42.400 retiring from football after twenty two extraordinary seasons. Multiple sources 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:46.080 tell Jeff Darlington and me more coming soon, breaking news. Yeah, 0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:50.000 and Jeff Darlington is really tied into Brady from his 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:53.840 Patriot days and you know, Chef d breaking the news 0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:57.600 with Darlington now it felt like it was happening immediately. 0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:00.320 And then I was also told Brady would never break 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:04.080 this story on you know, football weekend like that, and 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:06.400 he did not. He doesn't want this to get out. 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:10.720 And that doesn't mean this story is not correct. It's 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:13.840 just from what I was told by somebody who knows Tom. 0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:17.600 You know, this will eventually happen, it's just not happening now. 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:19.359 And it felt like Brady is going to have a 0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:22.480 press conference and you're thinking, Okay, he's retiring. Maybe it's 0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:26.200 just semantics here, but you know, his agent Don Yee 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.160 said no, this hasn't happened. His dad said no, this 0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:32.920 hasn't happened. The Bucks said no, not yet. Let's bring 0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:35.760 in Rick Stroud. He covers the Buccaneers for the Tampa 0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:39.800 Bay Times and a host of Sports Day Tampa Bay podcast. 0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:46.320 Thanks for joining us. Where do we stand with this story? Well, 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:48.480 I mean if you talk to Jason Light, you talk 0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:51.520 to Bruce Arians, any of the coaches, you know, they 0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:55.480 think that it hasn't happened yet. They think it's possible 0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:58.080 that he could retire. I mean, they were hurt by 0:20:58.119 --> 0:20:59.880 all this, you know, coming out the way it did 0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:03.639 sort of said the media jumped the gun a little bit. Eventually, 0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:06.960 Tom Brady called them, called Jason Light and told him 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:10.199
