1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's our two on this Thursday, Dan and

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: the Dan That's Dan Patrick Show, older football fans hearing

4
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Steelers of volks, memories of some of

5
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 1: the greatest Super Bowls of all time. And tonight Cowboys

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 1: Steelers game is not that the Hall of Fame game.

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: It's preseason to the preseason. Mason Rudolph starts for Pittsburgh. Dallas'

8
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: backup is Garrett and Gilbert. I don't know how much

9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: they're going to play in the fall, but you get

10
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: your opportunity. And hey, it's football, It's the Cowboys, and

11
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna be featured on Hard Knox this year. Maybe

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: we see something tonight that will show up on the

13
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 1: show next Tuesday. The Steelers side, we get to see

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: the former first round pick Dwayne Haskins trying to rebuild

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: his career. But this game is really a reminder of

16
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: how close we are to the real thing. The NFL

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: will probably have interviews with the Hall of Fame inductees

18
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: on the sidelines are in the game. Any excuse to

19
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: talk football is fun, even if it's not the highest

20
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: level on the field. Coming up tonight, and it's a

21
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: busy weekend. You have two years of Hall of Fame inductees,

22
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: so it's a long weekend with I think nineteen speeches

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: saw where Tom Brady is going to show up when

24
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning gives his speech, which is pretty cool, And

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how does that effect Peyton if he

26
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: knows Brady is out there. I don't think he's gonna

27
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 1: be heckling. But as Brady taking notes of that's how

28
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: you give a Hall of Fame speech, because Brady five, six,

29
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: seven years from now will be there in Canton. Yeah,

30
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a Hall of Famer, Yes, mclovin, but

31
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: you know he'll be there before Brady. Eli. He's got

32
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: to be there. And I just think it's funny that

33
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: Eli man is going to the Hall of Fame before Brady. Well,

34
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: but if you said to Eli, would you prefer to

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 1: keep playing and delay your Hall of Fame? Yeah? I

36
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: mean every way. I'm sorry to break this. Is there

37
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: any chance that people are gonna cool on Eli as

38
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer in four years? I don't know.

39
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: I mean, he won the two Super Bowls against the Patriots,

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: that certainly helps. He plays for the Giants, one of

41
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: the blue bloods. I think the you know, the longer

42
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: you have that separation of what he did as a

43
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: quarterback to going into the Hall of Fame, that's when

44
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: you start to look at the numbers and you go

45
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: right only through three hundred touchdowns. You know, that's where

46
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: it gets a little interesting when it you know, even

47
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: stats now with all of these sports, or if you're

48
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: a wide receiver and you don't get eighty catches, it's like, man,

49
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: what happened to you? Or if you're a quarterback and

50
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: you don't throw for four thousand yards, man, what happened

51
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: to you? Or thirty touchdowns? It just changed dramatically. Yes,

52
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: Ton does. Payton have a few different speeches that he

53
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: goes up with. This way he can call omaha, omaha,

54
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 1: called an audible and go. You know they're gonna go

55
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: with the third one that I wrote. Okay, all right,

56
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: you used that a couple of weeks ago. How to

57
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: repurpose that a little? He brought it back. The Premier

58
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: League is coming back beginning Friday, August thirteenth. Don't miss

59
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: out on all the action all year long. The Premier

60
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: League is on NBCNBCSN and Peacock. The United States men's

61
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: Olympic basketball team will face France for the gold medal

62
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: Slovenia with Luca don Chick lost the game to France

63
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: earlier this morning. Luca had sixteen points eighteen assists, might

64
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: have been bothered by a risk injury in the first

65
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: half of that game came down to the final possession.

66
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: Luca did not take that shot, but France moves on

67
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: and plays Team USA. Max Scherzer made his debut for

68
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: the Dodgers last night. Well that's how you make a debut.

69
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: You face the Astros in front of fifty two thousand,

70
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: you strike out ten, and you strike out Jose L

71
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: two Va three times. Here's Dave Roberts, the Dodgers manager,

72
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: on Max Scherzer's performance. It was awesome. It was fantastic,

73
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: the buzz and the crowd from the first pitch, him

74
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: taking them mount getting a curtain call, which I think

75
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: from what I understand, that was the first one of

76
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: his career. And so for him to get a curtain

77
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: call from the fans and kind of go to his hat,

78
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: a little nod to the Dodgers and the LA superstar

79
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: player and the most important thing for him was we

80
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: won a ball game, and you gotta wait when you're

81
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: getting Clayton Kershawn back, when you're getting Trevor Bauer back,

82
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: if you get everybody back, and then are you the

83
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: team to beat? As we move forward? Lebron James sent

84
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: out a tweet and he since deleted the tweet. He says,

85
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: keep talking about my squad, our personnel ages, the way

86
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 1: they play, We're past our time in this league, et cetera,

87
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera. Exclamation points, do me a favor,

88
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: one favor please exclamation points, and I mean, please keep

89
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: that same narrative energy, capital letters when it begins exclamation point.

90
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: That's all I ask. Hashtag thank you? Okay, Like, is

91
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: it that really offensive here? Did you? Like? Does it hurt? Um?

92
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: You're backing your new teammates, But let's be honest, you're

93
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: an old team. Now. You did bring in a couple

94
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: of younger players, but that's an old team. But why

95
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: delete it unless deleting it makes it sound more important? Like, Hey,

96
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: I said this, and um, you know, maybe I'm gonna

97
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: take that back? Yeah, Like really like that that bothers you?

98
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: I exclamation points. Please that same energy. You know, how

99
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: about just let it sit. Who cares what the opinion is, Like,

100
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: you don't have to do he doesn't have to tweet

101
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: about everything. You could just say, hey, look forward to

102
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: my guys. We're the team to beat whatever you want

103
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: to say. But it's like it hurt its feelings here

104
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: that people are going. Man, that's an old roster. It

105
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: is trying to put all these pieces together, tricky, trying

106
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: to look at who plays what role and when they

107
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: played that role. True. Yes, this is just like great

108
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: athletes finding bolton boardment here, like Michael Jordan is still

109
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: doing this every day, like he's just finding something to

110
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: be mad about so he can go out and kill

111
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: it next year. Yeah, but then don't delete it. Yeah

112
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: that is weird, Like I have no problem. You want

113
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: to stick up for your guys, stick up for your guys. Great,

114
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: but don't delete it like, oh I never should have

115
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: said that, or I regret or you know, I was

116
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: emotional at the time, and there it is an old team. Yeah.

117
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: Luckily for Lebron that tweet has gone forever and nobody

118
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: will save it use it against him in the future.

119
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: Lucky for him, yes, time ll you could just learn

120
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: from Durant and not be sensitive and just not send

121
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: out anything. Why does why do you have to respond

122
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: at all? I don't even know why some of these

123
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: guys even have a Twitter account. Wait, Durant does do this.

124
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying he should do the opposite and should learn

125
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: from the reaction to Kevin durant O how sensitive he is.

126
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: It's like, why even bother? I'm shocked at, you know,

127
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: unless it's an ego thing, how many millions of followers

128
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: that can have when you make a certain amount of

129
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: money and you've got that level of fame, why even

130
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: have social media at that point? What's the what's the point?

131
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: Only something negative can come of having social media? Well,

132
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: he uses it for a variety of reasons. I mean

133
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,679
Speaker 1: that's a great business opportunity. Yeah mcclub. Yeah, he promoted

134
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: space Jam big time on social media. Yeah. Yeah, see,

135
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: and you have people like like the one really famous

136
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: one as Ronaldo. He makes more money on Instagram than

137
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: he does his salary playing the game. I did not

138
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: know that. Yeah, he there was. I don't know if

139
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: he does every year, but I know maybe last year

140
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: or the year before, something like that he made more

141
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: money through ads on Instagram than his actual salary from playing.

142
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Wow Yeah, mcclvin. I meant to ask us yesterday, is

143
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,679
Speaker 1: this Lakers team somewhat like the Carl Malone, Gary Peyton,

144
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant Shack Lakers team? Is eric fear that it's

145
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: going to be like that old dream team kind of thing? Well,

146
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: I don't think you had the marquee names, you know,

147
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: with Gary Payton and Carl Malone. You know, Dwight Howard.

148
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: Nobody's expecting anything out of Dwight Howard like the way

149
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: it used to be, you know, ten years ago with

150
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: Dwight Howard. You know Mellow, you're expecting him to play

151
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five minutes and get you fourteen points a game.

152
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: I just think trying to mesh all of these different

153
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: personalities and to do that, and they're all you know,

154
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: the players you just got are on one year contracts,

155
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: so you're saying, come on in for one year, maybe

156
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: we win, win a championship, and then you go your

157
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: separate ways. That's the tricky part of this. You know,

158
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: do you keep Malik Monk because he's young? Look at

159
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: something a reason? You know, do you want him more

160
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: than one year? Marcus Saul? Do you want him more

161
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: than one year? Dwight Howard? Do you want him more

162
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: than one year? You know? Do you want to keep

163
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: Kent Base one? Like those are the things where Okay,

164
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: it's Russell Westbrook, it's Lebron, and it's ad and it

165
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: just feels like next year we're gonna have a whole

166
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: new group that comes in there. But trying to get

167
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: the personalities together and everybody knows their role. It's one

168
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: thing to know your role, and then the game starts,

169
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: and then the playoffs start, and then things change dramatically.

170
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm curious about, you know, trying to

171
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: put this all together. And I think Lebron, when Lebron's

172
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 1: the underdog, that's when he's dangerous. You know, we got

173
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: down to Miami, I don't know, not one title, not

174
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: two titles, not three titles like shut Up Now and

175
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: not that you could ease into it, but you didn't

176
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: have to have a boy used to men concert there

177
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: where you got smoke shows and light shows and not one,

178
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: not two. You're like, what were the expectations? Because they

179
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: didn't win the first year, you know, see But isn't

180
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: that that all just leads into why you do things

181
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: like delete a tweet because when you're somebody like Lebron,

182
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: everything that you say is gonna be so okay. File

183
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: that for later. Oh what happened to keep your old

184
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: guys around? Lebron? What happened there? And it's gonna lead

185
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: sports media for twenty four hours? Oh what happened to?

186
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: What go? Count the ages? A Lebrun whose voices every job?

187
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,719
Speaker 1: What happened though? It was a dream team? That's your

188
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: hot take voices? Yeah? Oh what happened? Yesh? Gotcha? Yes?

189
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: I like Kevin Durand's completely unleash, like he doesn't not

190
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: like Lebron's pretty corporate on his thing, Like that was

191
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: Kevin duran Like he I saw one last year where

192
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: he was accused of going to a girl's DMS and

193
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: he said, oh my bad, someone must have hacked my

194
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: phone when I went into your girlfriend's d edge, Like

195
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: he's hysterically funny. He's just like a normal person, but

196
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 1: he's he's a teenager. Like he comes off as just

197
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: you know, everything bothers him and everything is bigger, and

198
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: you know that's horrible what you said and I'm coming

199
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: after you. Like, you got some guys sitting there in

200
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 1: his you know, apartment, and he's tweeting Kevin Durant, and

201
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: then Durant's now coming after you. You know, Jimmy Lipper's

202
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: sitting in his apartment and spoken, and he's like, I'm

203
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: gonna send this out to the Kate. Oh, Katie's coming

204
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: after me. Yeah. See, because of what happens is you

205
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: can ignore the nine hundred and ninety nine of him,

206
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: but all of a sudden, for some reason, that one

207
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: thousand to that guy, that person got to you, and

208

214
00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 1: I just don't understand how you don't ignore it or

215
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: block even that one thousandth one, no matter how evil

216
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: it is or how meano you think you have the

217
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: perfect comeback for it. The chance that someone's going to

218
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: take it the wrong way if you're playing, if you're

219
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 1: an All Star playing in the outfield there screaming all

220
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: kinds of things like you, are you really going to

221
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: turn around? That's exactly what they want. You have to

222
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: just continue to ignore it. You're bothered by what people

223
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: say saying I'm sensitive, anyone that has a normal amount

224
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: of sensitivity in their life where you can get past

225
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: things or not let it to affect you that way,

226
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: just ignore it. It's the Cowboys and Steelers coming up

227

Speaker 1: tonight the Hall of Fame game. Will check in with

00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys radio network, Babe Lauffenberg back on the program.

Speaker 1: McLevin and we stand with what we did for the

234
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: first hour. I think we should mix it up. They

235
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 1: question wise, who is the most iconic NFL team? And

236
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: the Packers edge the Steelers, Cowboys start, then the Raiders. Okay,

237
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: here's a thought question. Best preseason, the NFL, Major League

238
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: baseball spring training or your favorite NBA Summer League. I

239
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: did watch Summer League again last night. I did. I

240
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: don't know if I have an MVP yet of the

241
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: Summer League, but I was watching. Well, you could be

242
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: very fooled by Summer League. I remember I thought Kevin

243
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: Knox was the real deal. Yeah, where has he been

244
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: on the Knicks? Yeah? It was just like seven points again.

245
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: I mean, where is Frank Nilikina? By way, he's not

246
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: even on the French team. I think he's hurt okay

247
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: watching the French and of course, taking four years of

248
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: French in high school, I am fluent in French. And

249
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: anybody who took those classes in high school where you

250
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: have to put on the headphones and then you repeat

251
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: over and over and over. All you do is no phrases,

252
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: So I just know we e fokish actually shann levra

253
00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: and I think it means why don't you open your books? Please? Hey, idiot,

254
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: opened your book? Something like that. I think that's what

255
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 1: it means. Yes, time, that could really help when you're

256
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: lost in Paris and you're some kind of a murden

257
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: or something. We folks I share saying leave. That's all

258
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 1: I know. I need help? Do you know what that

259
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: means no, I do not. I remember getting directions in

260
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: Ireland and the guy would say on straight. He was

261
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: giving us directions to go to a golf course, and uh,

262
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: I didn't know what on straight me? I thought he

263
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: said I'm straight, Like we didn't know. We're there's four

264
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: of us in in the car and we're trying to

265
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: figure out where we're going. And we said, hey, we're

266
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: we're going to this golf course. We're we're going to

267
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: Old Head and he would go, you know, they're here

268
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: on straight and then and then he go on straight

269
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 1: and go I don't know what on so it just

270
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: meant go straight, but he would say on straight. We're

271
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: flirting with him. That your thought he was saying, I'm straight. No, no, no,

272
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: I just didn't understand what. I kept asking questions like okay,

273
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: so keep going this way and then on straight, and

274
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: like I'm saying on straight, yes I'm straight, and I'm

275
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: going okay. I mean, we eventually found the golf course,

276
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 1: but I had no idea what on straight meant, yes mclub.

277
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: I visited Montreal when I was a teenager and I

278
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,440

280
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: pulled over by a Montreal copies like, what are you doing?

281
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,000

Speaker 1: year as a friend stop stop. Yeah I did. They

317
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: new poll question for this hour? Mclovin, what's the poll question? Okay,

318
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: who is most likely to miss the playoffs? The Cowboys

319
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: or Steelers? Wow, we're going out to Paul Special. He's

320
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,479
Speaker 1: arguing it's not negative we're going dark early here. It

321
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: feels like, yes, boy, it's a bit negative. But if

322
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: either of these teams miss the playoffs, the fallout is

323
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: pretty major. You'd have a new quarterback with the Steelers,

324
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 1: I would think, yeah, and you'd have a probably at

325
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 1: least a new coach with the Cowboys that they missed

326
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: the playoff. Although Jerry Jones is pretty lenient when it

327
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: comes to you know, he kept Jason Garrett there a

328
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: long time now. He really liked Jason Garrett. But I

329
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: don't know what his relationship is with Mike McCarthy. But yeah,

330
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: I could see that if something happened, if the Cowboys

331
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs, would Mike McCarthy's job in jeopardy.

332
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: It feels like that time frame timetable for Jerry Jones

333
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: is sped up, like he knows it's been a long

334
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: time and at his age, you know, I want to

335
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: win another Super Bowl here. Babe Lauffenberg twenty six years

336
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: working the Cowboys radio network as an analyst. The former

337
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback back on the show, Babe, good morning, how

338
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 1: are you Dan? I'm doing great, and very quickly you

339
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 1: know you've got your biggest fan and my nephew Kyle,

340
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 1: who lives in Orange County and California and never misses

341
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 1: a show, and he has eaten dinner with Troy Aikman,

342
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: with Darryl Johnson, with Jason Garrett. It means nothing to him,

343
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: means everything to him. No, no credibility for any of that.

344
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, Oh you're gone. I'm glad

345
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: to help your street cred there, Babe, Thank you, yes,

346
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: thank you? All right. Paulie gave the poll question to Babe,

347
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: which team is more likely to miss the playoffs? The

348
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: Steelers are the Cowboys to miss the playoffs. That's a

349
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: heck of the question there. I'm going to say the

350
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: Steelers only because of the division they play in, where

351
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 1: Cleveland is obviously no longer a win. Cincinnati should be

352
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: better with Joe Burrow. And then you got Baltimore, who's

353
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: always good, and they have literally the most difficult schedule

354
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: in the NFL this year if you base it, which

355
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: is all we can do on last year's teams. And

356
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: as we all know, the NFC East is so weak,

357
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: and I think the Cowboys offense is going to be

358
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 1: good enough to carry him. So I'm gonna say, if

359
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: one of them misses, it would be Pittsburgh, but I

360
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't bet on that. What would the fallout be if

361
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: Dallas doesn't make the playoffs? Yeah, I was listening to

362
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 1: the to the question about McCarthy's job security, and you're

363
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: exactly right. The Cowboys owner, he's actually pretty loyal to

364
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: his coaches, and he will always tell you that one

365
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: of his biggest regrets is firing Chan Gaily after two years.

366
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: And Chan Gailey actually made the playoffs. So I don't

367
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: and I think it all depends on how they miss

368
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Of course, we're in a seventeen game schedule now.

369
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: If they're ten and seven and for whatever reason, that

370
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: isn't good enough to get you in, or they have

371
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: an inordinate amount of injuries like they did last year. Again,

372
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: I think you always have to factor in, are you

373
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: playing without your quarterback? I think all those things factor in.

374
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: But you know, there's no question they did not sign

375
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy up for a six and ten season last year.

376
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: When did things go sideways or south with Jerry Jones

377
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:52,959
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Johnson. Wow, you know I always felt like

378
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: the spotlight is so big in Dallas and it really is.

379
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 1: As you well know, this isn't the small market team.

380
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: They are the most visible team maybe in all of sports,

381
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: and so the spotlight is big. So there's plenty of

382
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 1: spotlight to go on on Jimmy on the Cowboys owner,

383
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: on Troy, on Emmett, on Michael on Dion. That spotlight

384
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 1: was so big. So that's the thing that always surprised me.

385
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 1: But I think the other thing, too, Dan, is when

386
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: they first united in nineteen eighty nine and Jerry hired

387
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: Jimmy the bus head coach. The whole narrative was these

388
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: guys were best friends in college, they roomed together, they

389
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 1: went out together, and then when they when the breakup came,

390
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: it was well the only room together because it was

391
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: alphabetical Jones and Johnson. So one minute again they were

392
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: they were best friends, and the next minute they just

393
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: happened to be thrown in the same room. But I

394
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: couldn't tell you exactly, but clearly they each wanted credit

395
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 1: for the wins and for the Super Bowls. Well, who

396
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: deserved the most credit out of those two, Well, I

397
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: honestly I think it was I truly believe this. It

398
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: was one of those rare partnerships. And I always look

399
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: at the Beatles right big music feeling they were not.

400
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: George Harrison was not the best guitar player in the world,

401
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: Paul McCartney was not the best bass player, go on

402
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: and on, Ringo Starr wasn't the best drummer. But those

403
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: four guys together did something that was magical. And when

404
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: they split up, while they all did good work, they

405
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: never did the work that they did while they were together.

406
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 1: So I really see that union of Jimmy and Jerry

407
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: just being a perfect storm, and I think they both

408
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 1: had something to prove. Jerry was viewed as this hit

409
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 1: coming in from Arkansas, taken over the Cowboys fire Tom Landry.

410
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson was a college coach. And what's interesting too,

411
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 1: you look at this weekend through the Cowboys lens Okay,

412
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: which is kind of what I do. That's the Cowboys broadcaster.

413
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: Who would have thought the three guys going in from

414
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboys organization, right, Drew Pearrison, Cliff Harris, and Jimmy

415
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: Johnson at the start. Drew in nineteen seventy went undrafted

416
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: in a draft that had seventeen rounds. Cliff Harris went

417
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: undrafted in nineteen seventy three, again in a draft that

418
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: had seventeen rounds and Jimmy's first year, he goes one

419
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: in fifteen. So if anybody after we're looking at those

420
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 1: guys through a training camp or their first year in

421
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 1: professional football, pointed at him and said, hey, there walks

422
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: a Hall of famer, you would have been you would

423
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: have been laughed at. Right, Yeah, absolutely, but here they are.

424
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: I actually asked Mike McCarthy that question this past week.

425
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: I was in Cowboys camp at Oxnard, California, where they train,

426
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: and I said, Hey, these two guys, these two players

427
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 1: were both undrafted free agents. I said, when you look

428
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: out at the field here, when you go out to

429
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: practice today, can you point out a free agent and

430
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: say there's a Hall of famer, let alone two of them. Yeah, Well,

431
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 1: my goodness, it's just crazy, and it almost goes to

432
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: you wonder, how the hell did Gil Brand get into

433
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame when he was a guy in

434
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: charge and he drafted neither of those players. We're talking

435
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: to Babe Laufenberg, twenty six years working with the Cowboys

436
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: Radio network as a color and its former NFL quarterback.

437
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: Speaking of which your biggest concern for Dak Prescott this

438
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: year is what just stay healthy? And obviously he has

439
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: a shoulder injury, a strain in training camp. I'm not

440
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: concerned because they're not concerned truly. I know many times

441
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 1: they send up a smoke screen of non concern about

442
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: different injuries and then you find out the guys tops

443
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 1: of the year. That won't happen in this case, I mean,

444
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: he has so many weapons. Ceedee, Lamb is going to

445
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: be just a great player in this league. He had

446
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: he had a really really good rookie season, caught seventy

447
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: four balls. But this is going to be a big

448
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: time player. You've got a Mary Cooper, Michael Gallup, you

449
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: got Zeke Elliott, who I know, I think much like

450
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,400
Speaker 1: Mark Twain. Reports of his death have been greatly exaggerated.

451
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: He's a heck of a back and he's he came

452
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: to camp. He weighed two eighteen, which is lighter than

453
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: he's ever been. Maybe a little too light quite honestly

454
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:36,640
Speaker 1: in my book, because he's a big, powerful man. Put

455
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 1: some points up. Yeah, that's they were. They were literally

456
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: historically bad last year. I always liked the Bob Dylan line,

457
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: just when you think things have gotten as bad as

458
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: they can. They get a little worse, and so people say, well,

459
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: camp be as bad as last year. I always say,

460
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 1: well why not. There's there's no rule that says, okay,

461
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: if you were really, really bad, you will not worse.

462
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: But they did try to address it obviously in the draft.

463
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: First six draft picks were on defense, and so they

464
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: should be better. It appears they've brought in some pretty

465
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: good veteran guys that are going to shore things up

466
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: a little bit. But yeah, so they I mean, they

467
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: should be better, but there are no guarantees, as you

468
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: all know. But I do think that the offense is

469
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,239
Speaker 1: going to carry this team. If the defense can just

470
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:31,959
Speaker 1: be average, they're going to win a lot of games. Well,

471
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 1: it's like the Kansas City Chiefs created this model that

472
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: they're just going to score all these points and then

473
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: you just ask your defense to come up with a

474
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: couple of big stops. And that's what they did in

475
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. They won. Chris Jones came up with

476
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: a couple of big plays and that's it. I mean,

477
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: you can score in the NFL, but everybody scores. Really

478
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: what separates it feels like, Babe is the team that does.

479
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: You know, Tampa won the Super Bowl because of their defense,

480
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: not because of their offense. Well, I'll say this, so now,

481
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: the last five Super Bowl winners have all had top

482
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: five scoring offenses. So you've got to be able to

483
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,959
Speaker 1: score points in today's NFL. And obviously they make it

484
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,479
Speaker 1: easy for you to square wants it easy. It wouldn't

485
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: be easy if I was out there, but they've made

486
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: it a lot easier that. You know, the days of

487
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: you know, winning games thirteen to six, those are those

488
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: are gone. So you've got to be able to score points.

489
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: I even saw Nick Saban was listening to him and

490
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 1: he talked about the fact that the one year they

491
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: gave up nine point nine points a game, they they

492
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: allowed sixty three rushing yards a game. He said, I

493
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: was always play defense, you know, run the ball, and

494
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: he said once they started throwing around, they started winning

495
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: more games and winning by bigger margins. So if Nick

496
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: Saban can change his philosophy, if you will, now, obviously

497
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: he still wants to play defense, and they've got about

498
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,479
Speaker 1: ten first rounders over this year probably to do it with.

499
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just that's just the way the game

500
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: has evolved to become and again a lot of the

501
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 1: rule changes, as we well know, are all geared to offense,

502
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,719
Speaker 1: and you're keeping quarterbacks around longer because you can't hit him.

503
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger tonight. I mean, he won't play tonight, but

504
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 1: you know, eighteen years in the league and thinking about

505
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 1: playing next year. So we see the longevity these guys

506
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: really lasting because they're not taking the beating that they

507
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: once did before. I let you go when you were

508
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: at Stanford and you got there, I think the year

509
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: before John Elway. So Elway comes in, When did you

510
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: know your days were numbered as a quarterback at Stanford?

511
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: When Elway showed up, I think it was the second

512
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: half hour of the first proctor when he actre So

513
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: the first half hour was okay, it was the second

514
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: half competing. Yeah, but all we did done was stretch.

515
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: We're doing stretching at Actually, you know, interestingly enough, I

516
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: played against John Ewie in high school, so I knew

517
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: I knew how good he was, and of course, you know,

518
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: you think you're going to compete, but but yeah, he

519
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: was pretty good. And the one good thing about that

520
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: then when I when I left Stanford, of course immediately

521
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: people think, oh, you've flunked out. I said, no, no no, no, no,

522
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: But I always tell people, Look, if I was smart

523
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: enough to get into Stanford, I was also smart enough

524
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: to know when to leave and would always showed up.

525
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: I said, you know, this doesn't look so good for

526
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: the bambino here. How would you describe him for those

527
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: who didn't see him when he came in in eighteen

528
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: nineteen years of age. He I mean, he had the

529
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: same arm that you saw as an NFL player, And

530
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: again I actually saw it in high school. What I

531
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: think is funny is some of these guys have really

532
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: smooth motions, right, and the ball just kind of said, wow,

533
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: where did they generate that power? Every time he threw,

534
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: I swear it looked like he was going to tear

535
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: his rotator cuff. You can just picture him, can't you,

536
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: in the pocket on his toes, chin up, and then

537
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: he just ripped the ball. But never we get too

538
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: Like two practices in, a guy ran a hook round

539
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: at about twelve yards and literally just toward the receiver's finger,

540
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: straight off, straight back bone out. Oh well yeah, that's

541
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: At first I thought, you know, guys really like to

542
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: catch my ball. When I was there. We were competing

543
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: at Stanford there, and then I realized, you know what,

544
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: they really just don't like to catch John's because it

545
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: comes in about a hundred miles in our minds. You know.

546
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: I always like it when they say this guy throws

547
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: a catchable ball, that means he's got a weak arm.

548
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 1: And many times the problem is it's catchable for the

549
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: dBase reasily it's for the office. Have fun tonight, Babe.

550
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: I'd love to check in with you during the season.

551
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: And thanks for joining us. Yes, there, my pleasure. Thank you,

552
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: Dan appreciate it. That's Babe Laufenberg twenty six years working

553
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys as their color analyst on radio. Yeah, Paul,

554
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: that's got to be tough. You're like a good college quarterback, Babe, Waffer.

555
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: You're at Stanford. Nice team. Remember remember Kelly Bryant, the

556
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: guy at Clemson. He's sitting there rolling at Clemson, and

557
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: all of sudden, here comes Trevor Lawrence. You're like, oh man,

558
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm out of here. I gotta get up out of here.

559
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: And all you want to do is You're like, hey,

560
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna compete. I want to compete. And then all

561
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you see what they can do and

562
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: what you can't do, and you go, you know, I'm

563
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: probably gonna take my talents to a Missouri or in

564
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: Babe's case, take my talents to Indiana. Yeah, Seaton, right,

565
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: because you're walking out on practice that first day like

566
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: all right, new guy, Okay, let's see you all right, Yeah,

567
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: this is my team. And then yeah, halfway through the

568
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: first practice like, oh crap. That's what stood out on

569
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks with Justin Herbert because you know when the

570
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: rookie gets there and you're like, okay, hot shot, and

571
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: then you have the players who stopped to watch him

572
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: throw and I went, oh boy. They started making like

573
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: you know, noises and whistling, and if you're Justin Herbert,

574
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: you got to be empowered by that. Like these veterans

575
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: are watching and it was fascinating. They was just like

576
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: a small sample size of training camp, but you saw

577
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: these players just watching him throw the football, not too

578
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: there's no defense. He was throwing into a net and

579
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: they're just watching. And that's when you go, we got

580
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 1: ourselves at quarterback. We'll take a break, we'll come back.

581
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 1: More phone calls and we'll check in with the Dodgers

582
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: after Max Scherzer's performance last night, and bring back what

583
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: Joey Vado had to say the Reds first baseman that

584
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: maybe we need to stop booing the astros, well, everybody

585
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: but the Dodger fans. We'll take a breakback after this.

601
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: not to deal with rumor and innuendo, but sometimes you

602
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: can't avoid it. If you're an Eagles fan, you're like, hey,

603
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: things starting to heat up. There was a report, i

604
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: think by CBS Sports that NFL reporter said things are

605
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: heating up with the Eagles looking to trade for Deshaun Watson,

606
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: and I think I think the verbiage was still some

607
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: hurdles to overcome. These are mountains to overcome, not hurdles,

608
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: because you don't know what's going to happen to Seawn Watson.

609
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: But if things are starting to heat up, I don't

610
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: know exactly what that means. That you're placing a call,

611
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: you've had correspondence, has an offer been made. Mike Florio

612
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,479
Speaker 1: shot this down. It's like when Russell Wilson said, Hey,

613
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,720
Speaker 1: here's my four teams. I'd be interested in Cowboys, Bears.

614
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: Bears fans were like, we're getting Russell Wilson. It's like, no,

615
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: you're not. If they want to trade me, which they're not,

616
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: but if they do, then these are places that I

617
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: would want to go. Do I think that Shaun Watson

618
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: is on the verge of being traded. I don't, because

619
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: it's a great unknown. You know, the Eagles were trying

620
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 1: to sell us on Jalen Hurts. Hey, we have to

621
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: get rid of Carson Wentz, and we're all in on

622
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. No, they're not. They're not, And there's no

623
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: reason to be all in on Jalen Hurts. It's a

624
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: small sample size. He barely completed fifty percent of his passes. Now,

625
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,479
Speaker 1: do I think that he can play in the NFL? Yes?

626
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 1: But do I think he's a starting quarterback right now?

627
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't. I was. I enjoyed watching him because he

628
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,879
Speaker 1: was fascinating. He made some athletic plays. I just don't

629
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: know if he's he's ready. He's being rushed into this starting,

630
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: starting job. And the expectation level in Philadelphia is, you

631
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: know when you're not going to be we're rebuilding. I mean,

632
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: they went through the process with the Sixers. They don't

633
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: go through a process with the Eagles. They expect to win.

634
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: But you've got a new coach in there. Does that

635
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: new coach like Jalen Hurtz. Can you get to Shaun Watson?

636
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: What's it gonna take? Can you get him at a

637
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: bargain basement price? Now, if you take a chance on him.

638
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 1: Don't know. He's not going to be deposed in these

639
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: civil lawsuits until February. Is the NFL going to suspend him?

640
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: If when? How long? There's just too many moving parts

641
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: here to say that things are heating up. I'd have

642
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: to know a little bit more of what constitutes things

643
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: are heating up. If they start talking, does that mean

644
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 1: they're heated up or they've been corresponding. I still keep

645
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: an eye and there's a couple of teams though Carolina

646
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: is still a team. Denver is going to go, are

647
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 1: we getting Aaron Rodgers? And at some point you have

648
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 1: to go if if we're not, then let's go after

649
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: de Shaan Watson. They're just there's there's three or four

650
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: teams maybe more that are you know, the Dolphins just

651
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: monitoring everything and that's all you can do because you

652
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:37,720
Speaker 1: can't go all right, let's pull the trigger on this, yeah, pulling.

653
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 1: The one thing for the Eagles that people are saying

654
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: does make sense is they do have a little bit

655
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: of draft capital to play with this year. They have

656
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: their own first round pick, they have the Dolphins first

657
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: round pick, they have their own second, they have a

658
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: second from the Colts, and the Carson Wentz trade that

659
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 1: can become a first if Carson Wentz played seventy five

660
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,439
Speaker 1: percent snaps, which looks unlikely. But they have two ones

661
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: and two twos in the upcoming draft. Yeah, but I

662
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 1: don't know what unless you say, let's let's just forego

663
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: this season and plus do the Texans one Jalen Hurts

664
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: in return. What can you make this deal still keep

665
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts in there and Deshaun Watson doesn't play for

666
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: you this year, or there's that chance, like would you

667
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,919
Speaker 1: do that? Like the Brooklyn Nets took Kevin Durant off

668
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: the Achilles injury and knowing that he wasn't going to play. Now,

669
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: this isn't you know, sexual assault lawsuits here, but it

670
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 1: is we're taking you and we know you're not going

671
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: to play that first year. Can you do that? If

672
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: you're Philadelphia and if you bite the bullet and you say, hey,

673
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it. We don't have to give up

674
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: as much. We're going to take a chance on him.

675
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: Maybe he does. You go into that trade going he's

676
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: not going to play for us this year. If you

677
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: go into it with that mindset, then okay, pull the

678
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: trigger on him. I don't know how many draft picks

679
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: you have to give up, Texans. You know, the Texans

680
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: have to get rid of him. You can sell us

681
00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: on Jalen Hurts. Hey, that's our quarterback. You're gonna say that.

682
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 1: It's like you love your girlfriend until that other girlfriend

683
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: becomes available, that you know other girl, and then all

684
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,759
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know you've you've moved on. Hey,

685
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: I love Jalen Hurts he's our quarterback. Okay, of course

686
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna say. But if Deshaun Watson's available,

687
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: is Jalen Hurts still your quarterback? And the answer is no,

688
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: they'll go after him. Yeah, the club. The thing they're

689
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 1: selling Jalen Hurts on is he's like a real leader

690
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 1: of men type, like he's got He's an intangible guy.

691
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: He you know, he lost his job to TWA, but

692
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: he was a great teammate. Then he burned his way

693
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: back in Oklahoma. You can't count him out Like that

694
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 1: kind of makes me nervous as a fan, Like, but

695
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 1: I but mclove and I love tangibles. Yeah, yeah, that's

696
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:43,879
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like when you say, well, you say

697
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: it's completion percentage that made me nervous. Hey, his intangibles.

698
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,439
Speaker 1: I like tangibles, not Hey, he's a good clubhouse guy.

699
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: Good like okay, you know, you know who's a great leader,

700
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 1: the guy who can throw those passes and and and

701
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 1: you know, perform in a big moment like you know,

702
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: I'll follow him too. He seems like a good clubhouse

703
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: guy too. Aaron Rodgers. Oh, he's not a good team play,

704
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: you know, teammate, and all of a sudden, you know

705
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 1: he becomes the MVP. He's a great teammate. Well what changed?

706
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: He was great on the field, but there is something

707
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: about there's something about leadership and quarterback. Everybody plays better

708
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: when Tom Brady's there. I don't know why or how,

709
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: but isn't that like a thing. I don't know if

710
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: it's you can be a great leader, but it feels

711
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: like what are you putting your words into action? That

712
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,280
Speaker 1: always helps because I remember having a boss at ESPN.

713
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:42,240
Speaker 1: He could give one of the most dynamic speeches ever ever,

714
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: but he didn't follow up on anything that he said.

715
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,959
Speaker 1: But when he said it, you were like, yes, all right,

716
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: this guy he gets me, you know, And then I

717
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: realized he's not gonna follow through on any of this stuff,

718
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: so you can you can be the leader. I want

719
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 1: to know what you do when there's live bullets, when

720
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: you're playing, when it's a big game. That's when you're

721
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,879
Speaker 1: a leader to me. Yeah, Paul, Yeah, Like if I'm

722
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: a teammate, I look up to my quarterbacks ability to

723
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,479
Speaker 1: complete the pass and then everything else falls into place.

724
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: Like Tom Brady's abilities or it makes him a leader

725
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: the fact that he could win, not so much so

726
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: that you know he's a great guy. There was an

727
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: article written by Charles Robinson, who's a great NFL writer,

728
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: and he was talking about that. You know, this is

729
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers last year in Green Bay and the teams.

730
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:31,479
Speaker 1: There's five teams that Aaron is auditioning for. One would

731
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,919
Speaker 1: be Denver, one would be the Washington football team, one

732
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: would be the Eagles, one would be the Steelers, and

733
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: the other one would be Carolina. Okay, that's a little juicy.

734
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,720
Speaker 1: Do I think it would be? See Carolina has always

735
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: been one of those nobody talks about, and they do.

736
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: They do have Sam Darnold. The Washington football team is

737
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 1: a very good quarterback away from being a really good team.

738
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: In my opinion, it's not a tough division. But Ryan Fitzpatrick,

739
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: it just feels like he's been that bridge quarterback for

740
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: his entire career, and you know, you know, God bless him.

741
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 1: He's he's survived, he's played well, he's always he's like

742
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: NFL Player of the Week in September. Feels like every

743
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 1: year he is the NFL Quarterback of the Week, and

744
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 1: then after that it's hit or miss with him. But

745
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: could I see Aaron Rodgers in Denver? Yes, and you

746
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 1: got Teddy Bridgewater in there, and there's a chance, and

747
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: this is gonna sound crazy, Teddy Bridgewater could be the

748
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: starter instead of Drew Locke. Remember Drew Locke was gonna

749
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: make the big jump. You had analysts saying this is

750
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,280
Speaker 1: the year and he might not even win that job.

751
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 1: It's a good defense in Denver, but you gotta I mean,

752
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:12,800
Speaker 1: they really haven't resolved their quarterbacking situation since twenty fifteen.

753
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: Feels like it's been a state of flux. But if

754
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: you could get Aaron Rodgers, or you could get to

755
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson, it's just what do you have to give up?

756
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 1: I mean, that's really the key. Let's see Frepp in

757
