This is a paid advertisement, 19 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,559 Speaker 1: all right, instant reaction. Plus, I'm gonna have Matt Moseley 20 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: in fifteen minutes on the Cowboys mess. He's and Edwarder 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: have been doing the Doomsday podcast forever. So third week 22 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: in a row, Aaron Rodgers had the ball late with 23 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: a chance to win Denver, Minnesota, and now Buffalo and 24 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: could not get it done. You know, I've said this 25 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: four years. The strangest stat about Aaron Rodgers is how 26 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 1: few come from behind wins he has considering how many 27 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: big close games he's been in. The Jets lead the 28 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: NFL and penalty yards are second in total penalties twenty 29 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: two total penalties between the two teams. That I did 30 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: not love the officiating. I thought there were two calls 31 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: that reready bothered me. The one when Aaron Rodgers tucked 32 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: it got hit fumble would have been huge for Buffalo. 33 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: They called it an incomplete pass. Didn't like that call 34 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: at all. Also, a Jets pass interference wiped out with 35 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: an unnecessary roughness against Buffalo. Did not like that call 36 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: at all. I don't complain about officiating, all right, I don't. 37 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: That's what you do your fans, I get it. I don't. 38 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: But I thought I didn't like either of those calls. 39 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: And again this game came down, so I had predicted 40 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: before the year, Buffalo will win this division for what 41 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: the fifth straight year, mostly because of Josh Allen, and 42 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: then the Jets New eng little stink. They'll be fourth, 43 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: and the Jets Miami will go down to the end 44 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: of the season battling for the playoffs the final weekend, 45 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: And I said, I don't know if I had either 46 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: one of them in the playoffs. I don't think I 47 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: had the Jets in the playoffs, and I may have 48 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: had Miami, but I think they'll go down to the 49 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: final week and I think if Tua comes back here 50 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: and plays the rest of the season, Miami will heat up. 51 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: So the Jets are now two and four, Bills are 52 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: four and two, So it's working out. The Jets are fine, though, 53 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: don't overreact. They've got Justin Fields coming up. They've got 54 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: Drake May around the corner. They got Anthony Richardson coming up. 55 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: They've got a stretch of really weak quarterbacks, and Aaron's 56 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: planned pretty well. As the Bills won tonight twenty three twenty, 57 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: there were opportunities for both teams, But when you get 58 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: into these games like tonight, these big division games, it 59 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if it's Cincinnati playing Baltimore. Lamar Jackson was 60 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: the difference. You know, when you watch these big divisional games, 61 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: it's the quarterback making a play. And two plays at 62 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: the end of this game by the Bills, and they 63 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: made the two big plays in the game, actually three. 64 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: The Rap the safety for the Bills. Rap who went 65 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: to the University of Washington, good player, bounced around, had 66 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: some injuries in his career, physical physical safety, broke up 67 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: what appeared to be a potential catch by the Jets. Huge, 68 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: huge play by Rap. Then Taran Johnson with one of 69 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: the best interceptions I've ever seen. It felt like Ed Reid. 70 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: I hope everybody understands how great of a play that 71 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: was by tarn Johnson of Buffalo. He literally had to 72 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: do a U turn turn around. Mike Williams slipped on 73 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: one of his only targets tonight and Johnson held onto 74 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: the ball. That is an all time play. That's ed 75 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: REI That is incredible. So those two plays by the defense. 76 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 1: Then Josh Allen running for the first down, and again 77 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: it's very Lamar Jackson, It's very Mahomes. It's just an 78 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: ad libbed play where a supreme athlete outruns somebody else 79 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: to the sticks, and that's the ballgame. There's not a 80 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: lot of blame to go around. I mean, obviously the 81 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: Jets got rid of Matt Hackett and the offense looked better. 82 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: That's what Robert Sala wanted to do and got fired. 83 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: Robert Sala, the best coach on the staff, got fired. 84 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 1: He's a defensive guy, and I don't think the Jets 85 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: defensive play was as good tonight. It wasn't as tight. 86 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: So if Sala would have remained the coach and been 87 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: allowed to demote Matt Hackett, that could have been the ballgame. 88 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: I think Sala is the best coach on the staff. 89 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: But you know, Bill Belichi took a shot at Woody Johnson, 90 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: and Belichick's had a much greater career than Woody Johnson, 91 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: certainly in football. And he was talking to Eli and 92 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning on the Manning Cast and he said, you know, 93 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: ready fire aim, which is kind of an old line 94 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: used around the NFL for disorganized and impulsive owners, and 95 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: that's really what the Jets are. Robert solid to me, 96 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: he should not have been fired. It makes everybody feel 97 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: good when you fire the coach. He's the best coach 98 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: on that staff. The defense was not as tight tonight 99 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: unless I got reams and notes here, you know, I mean, 100 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: it's twenty three to twenty. Let's be honest, let's be 101 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: fair here. The hail mary. You get about one of 102 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: those every four years as a quarterback. That hail mary 103 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: makes it twenty seventeen at half, or it's twenty ten 104 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: Bills at half. So that's a bit of a break. 105 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: I felt like the Bills earned the win more than 106 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: the Jets earned keeping it close. It's a hail mary. 107 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: It's called that for Also, you know the fumble that 108 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: wasn't a fumble on the Aaron Rodgers passing tucking it back. 109 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: Didn't love that. It's not like there weren't any calls 110 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 1: that didn't go, you know, against the Jets tonight. But 111 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: I you know, Josh Allen, you know, in the second 112 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: quarter of that scrambling play to Matt Hollins, I mean, 113 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: that was just an incredible touchdown pass to him to 114 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: put the Bills up thirteen to ten. But the scramble 115 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: play and thrown at Davis earlier, it's just so unique. 116 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: Josh is such a unique all time talent. Also, you know, 117 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: the Jets missed two field goals tonight. So this thing's just, 118 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: you know, I feel really feel like watching Aaron Rodgers 119 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: struggle in late game situations. The owner being impulsive, the 120 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: field goal kicker missing two kicks tonight, and Aaron the 121 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, he's gotten the crap hit out 122 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: of him. He's taken shots. This feels like Aaron Rodgers 123 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: last season. I just don't know, it's a circus. He's 124 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: going to get blamed for this. We have to be honest. 125 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: You can blame whoever you want. It's now Aaron's team 126 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: and Denver, Minnesota and the Bills. Tonight, he was the 127 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: second best quarterback on the field in long stretches against 128 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: the Vikings in the first half, certainly, and he was 129 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: the second best quarterback on the field tonight. And I 130 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: do think Aaron is playing for his age at a 131 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: really pretty high level. But he's taken hits. They've already 132 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: had to demote his offensive coordinator, they fired his coach. 133 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: You're looking around and you remember Aaron was in Green Bay. Well, 134 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: they just don't do any of that stuff. They don't 135 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: do any of that stuff. So he goes from a 136 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: really shrewd patient winning culture in Green Bay. I mean, 137 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,679 Speaker 1: now he's been injured, they fired his coach, they demote 138 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: his buddy. He's getting rocked. I just don't see him 139 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: coming back. I don't. It just everything you just it's 140 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: the drip drip, drip effect. It just wears on Aaron, 141 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: who's not terribly patient anyway. Who and by the way, 142 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't think any of us are. I think as 143 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: I've gotten older, I'm less patient than I was years ago. 144 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: You get to a certain standard, you want things done 145 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: a certain way. I'm probably much less patient than I 146 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: was in my twenties or thirties. So you know, Aaron's 147 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: eye rolls. I mean he was frustrated on that bench. 148 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: You got to kick or missing two kicks in the 149 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: biggest game for the Jets, who are now two and four. 150 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: I think they'll be fine. I think they're going to finish. 151 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: I said, I thought they'd be like a nine and eight, 152 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: ten and seventeam that's about where they're going to finish. 153 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: And Buffalo's going to end up with probably eleven to 154 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: twelve wins. And not only did the hail Mary make 155 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: this game closer than it would have been, but the 156 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: Jets wins this year are against Will Levice and the 157 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: Titans and Jacoby Brussett and the Patriots, and teams that 158 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: start two and four have only an eleven percent chance 159 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. So the Hail Mary. You know 160 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: you trail twenty to ten at half. May it may 161 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: never sinch up it. Buffalo's the better team, Buffalo's got 162 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: the better quarterback. Buffalo made the three big plays at 163 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: the end of the game. Buffalo keeps winning this division. 164 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: If you start four and two, that's the Bills. You 165 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: make the playoffs sixty four percent of the time, and 166 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: they will. You know, they didn't have their best running 167 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: back tonight, James Cook, so and to go on the road, 168 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: have a couple of calls go against him, and just 169 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: make the three biggest plays of the game. Buffalo made 170 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: all of them. Rap Teyran Johnson, Josh Allen boom boom boom, 171 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: three biggest plays of the game in order late and 172 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: that's why the Bills are gonna win the division again. 173 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 1: Hell of a football game for Monday night, I mean, 174 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: the officiating drove me nuts. That was a We've been 175 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: very lucky this year. We've had you know, Atlanta a 176 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago overtime win. We've had really really 177 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: good standalone games, really good standalone games. And I will 178 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: say this about the officiating. I think about this sometimes 179 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: in standalone games sometimes I feel like the officials are 180 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: trying to make a point. They know everybody's watching and 181 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: so on. That roughing, unnecessary roughness against Buffalo that wiped 182 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: out the pass interfiners on the Jets. Would that be 183 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: called in the one o'clock window? Maybe, maybe not, But 184 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: I felt like it was one of those things the 185 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: league's watching. We're not going to tolerate the extra sauce. 186 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: We're just not going to tolerate it. I feel like 187 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: sometimes in standalone games, I feel like the NFL does 188 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: that in the preseason, like they were over they will 189 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: overcall a new rule just to make it very clear 190 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: to the players we're not going to allow this or 191 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: tolerate this. I felt like tonight a couple of times 192 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: they were trying to make a point the Buffalo Bills. 193 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: So right now in the AFC Josh Allen leads his division, 194 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson leads his division. Lamar would be my MVP. CJ. 195 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: Stroud leads his division, Mahomes leads his easy to Predict 196 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: four for four. I'm sure you probably did the same thing. 197 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: Best Quarterbacks Leader Division. I think the NFC isn't quite 198 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: as good at the top, and so it'll work itself out. 199 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: San Francisco now I think feels like it's kind of 200 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: separating from the rest of the NFC West. The rams 201 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: off of buy are getting a little healthier, but it 202 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: may be maybe a little late. I mean, they'd have 203 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: to go on a five or six game winning streak 204 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: to get back at the top of that division.

He's been doing 237 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: this forever. Also was an ESPN radio show. 238 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 3: And so. 239 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: From the outside, I man, I look at this and 240 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: I think Packers blew them out at home. Last year, 241 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: Saints blew them out. Ravens really did blow them out, 242 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: although they caught up in the second half a little 243 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: A Lions blew them out. Games weren't super competitive. I mean, 244 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: you know I've said this before the season is they 245 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: have one great weapon in a league. Now that's weapon filled. 246 00:13:54,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: Dak's contract limits a lot of depth. Mike is very 247 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: good player, doesn't feel as good he's been out as 248 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: a Miles Garrett or a TJ. Watt. He's just a 249 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: very good player, but he's not a game decider. This 250 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: roster just doesn't feel like it's a top ten roster. 251 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: Is am I out of bound saying that? 252 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 3: No, I don't see how you could watch what's happened 253 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: Colin and those three and now if you count the 254 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 3: Green Bay four straight home losses. The identity for this 255 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 3: team was they were a really good regular season team, 256 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 3: and they were a great home team and so far 257 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 3: now they've completely lost that and you know the fact 258 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: that they don't have any depth that could have been 259 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 3: addressed even before they committed the enormous money to CD 260 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 3: and debt that was not addressed at all. And in fact, 261 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: if you look at who they're playing on the defensive 262 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 3: line right now, none of those players were even in uniform. 263 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 3: I'm talking about the other day, Sunday, August fourteenth. Those 264 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 3: are all players they've just had to bring in, so 265 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 3: they're really only hope. I mean, I do think Micah 266 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: potentially is you know, maybe the best defensive player in 267 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 3: the NFL. I may have him a little higher than 268 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: you do. The problem is, you know, and you've seen 269 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: this happen with other teams, Like they were so ready 270 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: to part ways with dan Quinn because you know, they 271 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 3: had that horrible thing happened against Green Bay, But like 272 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: all these takeaways and all these huges, you know, game 273 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: changing plays that you're looking for, that happened for a 274 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 3: few years under dan Quinn. So I mean, I think 275 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 3: the thing that Jerry's having to deal with right now 276 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 3: is and I've seen him like this before. Man, he's 277 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 3: he's he's looking at what like even the commanders, even 278 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 3: in a losing effort, to have Jaden Daniels and then 279 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: have Dan Quinn, who was on his staff for several years, 280 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 3: and to actually have positive momentum. And he's looking at 281 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 3: what the lions coming in here and literally just clowning 282 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 3: on him, and he's just in jealous mode. He's in 283 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 3: the mode of how did this happen? How do we 284 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: how do we have this much of a deficit? And so, 285 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 3: I mean he yesterday, he was lost, like he generally 286 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 3: can put on the happy face. It was his eighty 287 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 3: second birthday yesterday, and they get crushed forty seven to nine, 288 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 3: And that's as down as I've seen him in a while. 289 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 3: Like he didn't he didn't have any answers, and much 290 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 3: like they did a few years ago when they went 291 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 3: and traded for Marik Cooper. I don't think helps on 292 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 3: the way. I don't feel like there's anything truly they 293 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 3: can do and turn this thing around. But that that's 294 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 3: pretty it's pretty unbelievable that they're getting crushed like they 295 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 3: are at home. 296 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: How much power does Stephen Jones have? Does he listen 297 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: to him? Does just Jerry ever acquiesce? We know Jerry 298 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: and his vanity. It's you know, it's kind of laughed 299 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: at around the league where he holds these press conferences. 300 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: Does he ever just take a back seat to Stephen Jones. 301 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, Steven does have a big say, and but if Steven, 302 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 3: for instance, had have wanted to be more active this 303 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 3: off season, the Cowboys could have been more active. So 304 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 3: I would say this offseason he kind of sided with Jerry. 305 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 3: The problem is, of course Jerry had a pr nightmare 306 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 3: on his hands because Jerry, unbeknownst to Stephen, started talking about, Hey, 307 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 3: we're all in, We're going to be all in, and 308 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 3: then he didn't follow that up by bringing in anybody. 309 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 3: So I do think Stephen has a lot to say, 310 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 3: But right now they're just reeling and I doesn't seem 311 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 3: like helps on the way. They'll get some they'll get 312 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 3: some corners back. We'll get a couple of corners back. 313 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 3: They'll get Micah back soon, and maybe they'll be do 314 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 3: something else. But I think this the Zimmer thing, who 315 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 3: I've known forever and I got a great relationship with, 316 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 3: but it's not working. And it's just unreal that you 317 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 3: could be at home and have what I mean, I 318 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 3: covered Dan Campbell and knew him well, and he's an aggie. 319 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 3: And I think that's another thing that kills Jerry, is 320 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 3: like these people that he falls in love with and 321 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 3: he knows, like Sean Payton, who Sean Payton left here 322 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 3: and then went on to be with the Saints, Dan 323 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 3: Campbell was here. It kills him when he has people 324 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 3: that are in his orbit and that he considers friends 325 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 3: and then they go and have success elsewhere. And right now, 326 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 3: like that's what that's the look he had, and he 327 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 3: actually said it yesterday. He's like, they have what we 328 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: want and what he really means and he can't say 329 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 3: is they have the coach I want. And he's just 330 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 3: really bad. He doesn't know how to hold. Like Dan 331 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 3: Campbell was available all those years. Guess who he was 332 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 3: on with. He was with Sean Payton. He Jerry had 333 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 3: people telling him from the Saints, that's the guy you 334 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 3: should hire him. And Jerry knows this guy, and Jerry 335 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 3: didn't act on it. And so right now you're seeing 336 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 3: this thing kind of fall apart. And unlike some places 337 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 3: where you can throw truly blow something up, this team's 338 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 3: not going to lose enough games to do anything drastic 339 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 3: or to have a huge impact in the in the 340 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 3: in the draft. And so you have two players who 341 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 3: are going to be here for what four or five 342 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 3: years at enormous cost, and then you've got to try 343 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 3: to sprinkle players around them. And right now people get 344 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 3: mad that I point this out. You've got a quarterback 345 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 3: who's not lifting anybody up. 346 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: No, that's not who he is. He he you know, 347 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: Bucky brookshust To always say this, there's tractors and trailers, 348 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: and tractors pull. That's mahomes and trailers get pulled. And 349 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: Dak is good when he has protection in a run game. 350 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought it was laughable going into the season. 351 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: I said, they're not a playoff team. You give Dak 352 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: no run game. I mean even CJ. Stroud, who's a 353 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: really good, really good quarterback, or Justin Herbert, who are 354 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: considered higher end quarterbacks and throwers of the football than Dak, 355 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: they have struggled without a good run game. 356 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: I mean c J. 357 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: Stroud gets Joe Mixon back, Oh, the Texans look great. 358 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: Dak with the worst running back room in the league 359 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: is a c quarterback. That's what he is. 360 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 3: That's what it looks like. And he has his moments. 361 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 3: But you know, you talked about it, the Derrick Henry thing. 362 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 3: He was out there. He made it known the Cowboys 363 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 3: would be a team he would love to be around, 364 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 3: you love to be with, and he lives there. This 365 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 3: is not the old quarter the running back where you 366 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 3: have to pay a tome. I mean like literally two years, 367 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 3: sixteen million, and Jerry, you know, when I quizzed him 368 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 3: about that after that Ravens game, was just like, no, 369 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 3: we can't afford him, we can't do that. I mean, 370 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 3: I think when you're watching how he's playing, you could 371 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 3: say they really couldn't afford not to have it, Like 372 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 3: that's exactly to your point, like if Dak could lean 373 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 3: on somebody like that. But Jerry is so stuck. And 374 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 3: usually it's like back in the Jimmy days or even 375 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 3: the very aftermath of Jimmy. And of course Campo is 376 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 3: the one back in the day who brought in Zimmer, 377 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 3: and Zimmer became a big part of the Cowboys family. 378 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 3: But in times of stress, Jerry goes for these people 379 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 3: he knows and has history with, and he even does 380 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 3: it with players. It's one thing to do with coaches, 381 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 3: but he did it with Zeke, and literally he just 382 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 3: has a guy who really doesn't have much tread on 383 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 3: his tires, who's kind of a leader, but doesn't have 384 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 3: anything left to do. So it's a it's a it's 385 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 3: a very frustrating. It's a rough place to be right now. 386 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: Who would you know, Mike Rabel's out there living in 387 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: Park City, Utah, quick flight to Dallas. I don't know 388 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: if he'd want that circus. I've said this before. Philadelphia 389 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: with a loaded roster could have will have an opening 390 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: at head coach. I think that goes without question. You 391 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: start looking around the league and there are some teams here. 392 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: New Orleans will need it. Derek Carr, I think that's 393 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: a wash, although I do think their ownership and their 394 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: front office Mickey Loomis is really really strong, stronger than Dallas. 395 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence Jacksonville, I mean, he's obviously regressed under Doug Peterson. 396 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: There's some really interesting quarterbacks. Jalen Hurts A Trevor Lawrence 397 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,479 Speaker 1: could need a coach. Joe Burrow. If Cincinnati goes into 398 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: seven game losing streak, Joe Burrow could need a coach. 399 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: My take is Dallas has become a bit of a circus. 400 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: It's why the Lakers. Lakers in Dallas have too many 401 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: Joneses and too many buses in the building. Not enough 402 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: outside influence, very insular, big brands. But the brands bigger 403 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: than the team and better run than the team. I mean, 404 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't think Dallas is a great job. I don't 405 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: think it's a good roster. I think Jerry talks too much. 406 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: I mean, is it you know it's funny? People say, well, 407 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: you know, it's the high profile. Jerry doesn't pay the 408 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: most in the league. Jeffrey Lorie can pay. There are 409 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: places that Bob Kraft would pay. Is the Cowboys a 410 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: good job? 411 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 3: I think Jerry is desperate right now, and so I 412 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: mean it's a crazy job. It is a circus. But 413 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 3: in some ways, I mean, Will mcclay's pretty good personnel guy. 414 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 3: You have to deal with Jerry. But when Jerry gets 415 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: this desperate, which I expect him to be in the 416 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 3: coming weeks, that's the only time he makes like big 417 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 3: swings like you did with Bill Parcells. Now, that was 418 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,719 Speaker 3: to get the stadium built. But I think that I 419 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: think he senses the fan base is turning on him 420 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 3: and is getting angry enough that the Belichick thing could 421 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 3: be real, and that is with Jerry, it has to 422 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 3: be some sort of foundational relationship. That's why when he 423 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 3: was still a big name or still coaching, like Holmgren 424 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 3: was a name that made sense because Jerry worshiped Holmgren 425 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:24,919 Speaker 3: and they had this foundation together Belichick. Jerry relishes friendships 426 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: with like big time, huge people, and he loves the 427 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 3: fact that Belichick goes around saying, I respect Jerry Jones 428 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 3: like I could work for Jerry Jones. So I think 429 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 3: Bill's saying that to people right now. I think he's 430 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 3: he wants back in the game enough that he would 431 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 3: put up all the stuff with Jerry. But you see, 432 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 3: he would handle himself just like Bill did, and Jerry, 433 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 3: to a certain extent, would be miserable in that kind 434 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 3: of setting. But I think it's getting to the point 435 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 3: where he would he would seriously think about and that's 436 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 3: where it becomes somewhat of attractive job because he would 437 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 3: like Michah Parsons being here, and he would like a 438 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 3: quarterback being here. And I would say, there are people 439 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 3: out there that value Dak more than you do, and 440 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: I think Belichick might be one of those guys. 441 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's I've always considered Dak like the 442 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: best of the B plus guys. He and Kirk cousins. 443 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: Kirk throws a better ball, Dak moves better. But they're 444 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: the best of the anus B plus guys, and I 445 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: think both need help. Kirk and his career has had 446 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: a better stable of receivers a lot of his career. 447 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: Dak's had maybe better running backs. But right now Kirk 448 00:25:51,240 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: is flourishing with Atlanta. You know, Jerry and Steve and 449 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: largely run personnel along with the aforementioned guy what was 450 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: his name? 451 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 3: Will play? 452 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, you think Jerry would ever relinquish that to get 453 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: the right coach. 454 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: Not in a million years. 455 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: He just believed. 456 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 3: That's just what he believes. And there's no talking about 457 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 3: of it. And even when somebody asked him yesterday something 458 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 3: about are you going to take ownership over kind of 459 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: what's happening, he just stopped him and he said, I 460 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 3: am the owner now. He said, we're in the proverbial 461 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 3: esser yesterday, And so he's admitting. But Jerry, in his 462 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 3: mixed up way, thinks he's the only one that can 463 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 3: ever save anything, and so to change the way this 464 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 3: is handled now, Someday when Jerry is gone in like 465 00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 3: twenty five years, when he Stephen is, Jerry would leave 466 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 3: word with Steven to never relinquish it. But Steven would 467 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 3: He would operate in a different way, in a much 468 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 3: different way than Jerry. But Jerry does lean on people, 469 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 3: and I don't. I think Belichick is so desperate to 470 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 3: get back in and go out in a different manner 471 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 3: that I think he would be willing to put up 472 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 3: with some of Jerry's stuff. 473 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, Bill wanted to make six seven eight million bucks 474 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: this year just so he hadn't. You know, He's got 475 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: a lot of money, but Bill wanted to stay front 476 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: and center make some money. These coaches, I mean Nick 477 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: Saban a minute he could get on TV. Saban's great, 478 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: by the way, Belichick's fine when they get him in 479 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: certain roles. He's good, but he wants to coach. I 480 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: had Sean Payton at Fox for a year. Sean wanted 481 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: to coach Bill Parcell's a couple of times did TV 482 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: the minute coaching came back boom. It was in his blood. 483 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: Some of these guys, often the less successful coaches you 484 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: know who've been fired A couple of times. They you know, 485 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 1: they like TV. They see TV is a gateway to 486 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: endorsements and fun and more golf. At Belichick, you know, 487 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: he's got a boat. He's not sitting on a golf 488 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: course too much. He's too smart. Peyton's the same way. 489 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: They're too bright, they're too driven. Are there any empty 490 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: seats at Cowboy games? I mean, has the apathy spilled 491 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: over to merchandising or seats? 492 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 3: No? 493 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: Okay, no? I mean and are there more visitors at 494 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: Jerry World? Are there more visiting fans? 495 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 3: Always though? I mean through good years and bad years. 496 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 3: It'll be embarrassing when the Texans come on this current trajectory. 497 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: The Texans will have plenty of fans. The Eagles will 498 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 3: have fans. The Lions were taking over that stadium yesterday. 499 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 3: Jerry doesn't really mind that. He hates it when I 500 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 3: bring it up, and I've done it in the past 501 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 3: and he gets mad like a Seattle game, you know, 502 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 3: but he the whole spectacle of it. He's kind of 503 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 3: okay with that. He knows he's going to fill the stadium. 504 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 3: I think the only thing that ever would would give 505 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 3: him pause is just like what happened a few years 506 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 3: ago when they flexed out of a Cowboys game. Somebody 507 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 3: did that. I think it was NBC, and that's shocking. 508 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, al Michaels used to joke that 509 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 3: they would take a Cowboys game every week. What's Fox 510 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 3: doing with Tom Brady? Like he's done like four Cowboys games, right, 511 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 3: They're just like, let's just make him the beat guy 512 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 3: for the Cowboys. 513 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football is on.

I've said this before, I don't think 522 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: Dallas is America's team. I think the Niners are. If 523 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: you anywhere Denver West, the Niners fill the stadium and 524 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: they're also they've been so good for majority of the 525 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: last twelve years. Is I think there's such a star 526 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: studded team that I think if you ask Fox executives, 527 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: I mean, especially Dallas getting ripped at home. Everybody still 528 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: gets Dallas. But I could see for the next three 529 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest. Now, big market Chicago with 530 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams, big market San Francisco, Green Bay's a big 531 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: brand if Dallas is an eight to nine team. Remember 532 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: the Steelers used to be on TV a lot, and 533 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: they're probably the second biggest brand in the league. They 534 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: get flexed out. People don't want the Steelers on television. 535 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: They're boring. They want the Ravens on TV. And I 536 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: do think there's something to be said. Is a not 537 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: he has an ascending paycheck, He's not an ascending player. 538 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: And I look at these big markets with I mean 539 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: Houston gets on TV more Caleb Williams. How about when 540 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: Washington matt is now good. That's like the seventh biggest 541 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: city in the country. I think there's some big national 542 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: markets with ascending, star, exciting quarterbacks. I can see Dallas. 543 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: I can see people at Fox just saying they're just 544 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: not that interesting. I mean, I found myself yesterday bailing 545 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: on that Cowboy game. The second time this year. I'm like, 546 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: they're just not that much fun to watch. 547 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wish I had that opportunity yesterday just to 548 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 3: kind of walk out of there. But I still think 549 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 3: were one flex out in the past fifteen years. And 550 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 3: my sense is that even when they're five hundred people 551 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 3: are still fighting. They have them on. You make an 552 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 3: interesting point. I still think when they go places, it's 553 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 3: kind of crazy the amount of Cowboys fans that show up. 554 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 3: And I'm just seen it over and over and over. 555 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 3: So I could. I mean, I would not. I still 556 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 3: would not make an America's team. I think the Patriots 557 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: became America's most hated team. I think they you know 558 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,959 Speaker 3: you that used to be the Cowboys for years, and 559 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 3: it was like Brady and the Patriots surpassed them in 560 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 3: the villains. But yeah, I would be hard pressed to 561 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 3: say that's happening. But I would say this to your point, 562 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 3: if Jerry feels that happening, it'll just make him more 563 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,239 Speaker 3: dig in and have to bring in a coach like 564 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 3: that like Belichick. 565 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that's why Belichick makes sense. They don't with 566 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: Dack's contract, they don't have a lot of offensive firepower 567 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: and the truth is, their defensive pieces aren't terrible. I 568 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: mean they're not, They're they're just they're all banged up. 569 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: I think it's becoming such a quarterback league. I just 570 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: know personally. I like watching Kansas City won, Baltimore two, 571 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: San Francisco three, and I think I think Detroit and 572 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: Green Bay and Chicago now, good God. The NFC North. 573 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: The four leading teams in the NFL on point differential, 574 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: all four in the NFC North. That is like a 575 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: that's like a track teams in that diation. It's amazing 576 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: how good they are. 577 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 3: And think how how much Sean Peyton that Dan Campbell 578 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 3: has in him right now, because I mean the most 579 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 3: he was just a good old boy Hunter and Fisher 580 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: and just an awesome guy to talk to. And there 581 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 3: wasn't a petty bone in his body when I used 582 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: to visit with him all the time and cover him 583 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 3: as a player. Yeah, And he walked into that stadium 584 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 3: and his sole purpose after winning was to embarrass the 585 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 3: Cowboys in every possible way. That was the most Sean 586 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 3: Payton behavior I've ever seen. And from the from the 587 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 3: play one he put that he put the guy out 588 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 3: there as the tackle legs will play and then late 589 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 3: in the game he was doing hooking ladders with his 590 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 3: starting offensive tackle and he's spent. He spent the better 591 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 3: part of that game trying to rub it in Jerry's face. 592 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 3: And what's really weird and crazy about Jerry, there's a 593 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 3: twisted part of Jerry that kind of liked that. There's 594 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 3: a twisted part of Jerry that was just like man, 595 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 3: I so wish I had a coach that would do 596 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 3: that to other people, and he doesn't have that in McCarty. McCarthy, 597 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh guy, respect the game, never show anybody up. That's 598 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,479 Speaker 3: not the way he's wired at all. So Jerry, now, 599 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 3: as much as he hates to do it, has to 600 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 3: run him out. And they're three and three. So he's 601 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 3: not going to do it like Wade Phillips. He's not 602 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 3: going to do it in the middle of the season. 603 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 3: But he's got to do a deal kind of like 604 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 3: he did with Bill Parcells. He's got to get the 605 00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 3: thing done with Belichick, you know, like three weeks before 606 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 3: the season ends. He's got to get that hammered out. 607 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 3: He's got to do it privately, and they got to 608 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 3: get it in place. 609 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: Why was McCarthy two hours late to the press conference. 610 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 3: No, no, no good explanation. Seriously, just say and I 611 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 3: mean like it is odd because like why does the 612 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 3: PR group let everybody just sit in there forever they 613 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 3: thought it was going to happen. Mike just said that 614 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 3: the personnel some coaches meetings went long and then they 615 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 3: had to go into personnel meetings. But you know, given 616 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: what they everybody just witnessed. Of course, the media is like, 617 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 3: what in the world's going on? But they sent him 618 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,439 Speaker 3: out and said there was nothing to see. And hey, 619 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,479 Speaker 3: one thing McCarthy's done well is he has no there's 620 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 3: there's no interim coaches like on the staff. Okay, like 621 00:35:55,320 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 3: there's nobody. Zimmer's defense has been so awful even when DeMarcus, 622 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 3: Lawrence and Michael were out there. So you can't turn 623 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 3: it over to him. What are you gonna do? Give 624 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 3: it to Schottenheimer, you know, like he's not gonna do it. 625 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 3: And so you have your Bones Fossil, you have John Fossil, 626 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 3: your special Teams coach. So there's nobody to step in. 627 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 3: Maybe Al Harris, there's nobody to do it, so he 628 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 3: has kind of McCarthy is protected in that way. But 629 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 3: this thing's headed toward this thing, you know, probably gonna 630 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 3: go off the rails. And the point is they used 631 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 3: to be able to beat all their NFC East opponents, 632 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 3: and so this was an inflated record. 633 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: The Commander twenty four and four against Washington and the Giants. 634 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 1: That's that's sixty percent of his wins. 635 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 3: Yes, and everybody wants to talk. But again, Jerry and 636 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 3: Stephen want credit for those twelve wins seasons. But you're right, 637 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 3: ton of it came in. Listen. A lot of good 638 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 3: coaches do that. They take they take advantage of a 639 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 3: bad division. But the Cowboys problem, of course, is they 640 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 3: can't take that next step. And what they did against 641 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 3: Green Bay I think that. I think the most shocking 642 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 3: part for Jerry, and the most sickening thing to fans 643 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 3: is that Jerry watched that Green Bay game and his 644 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 3: response was, let's run it back and let's not change 645 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 3: a thing. 646 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 647 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 3: I think what Jerry would like to say right now 648 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 3: is I told you he would like he's not going 649 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 3: to say it. He can't say it. I told you 650 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 3: why I was waiting on doing this contract. Why in 651 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 3: addition to McCarthy coaching into the last year. I kind 652 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 3: of was okay with Dak because right now, in secret 653 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 3: areas where I'm not andally nobody is, Jerry has to 654 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 3: be having those conversations. This is why I kept waiting, 655 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 3: and everybody's like, why didn't you get this done? If 656 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: you'd have gotten this done a while back, you wouldn't 657 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 3: have had to pay him. Sixty million still would have 658 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 3: been an enormous amount, but it might not been sixty 659 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 3: and Jerry would deep down he wondered if he had 660 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 3: the right quarterback, but he had no recourse in the end, 661 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 3: right Trey Lance was you know, proved to be nothing, 662 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 3: and what are you going to do? Try to you know, 663 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 3: you can't blow it. You've got Dak as your quarterback. 664 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 3: You're not going to lose twelve games. There was there was, 665 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 3: There was no He saw no way to find another solution. 666 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 3: So but that's Jerry, I mean, that's this. That's this 667 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 3: Cowboys team. Their solution always in the end is well, 668 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,760 Speaker 3: we're just gonna have to pay top of the market money. 669 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 3: They say they don't want to, but they always end 670 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 3: up having to do it, and then they want to 671 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 3: claim we're the only team doing that. There are other 672 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 3: teams doing that, right, I mean, I mean there's the 673 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 3: teams that have star quarterbacks and star wide receivers. The 674 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 3: Cowboys are not the only team, but they want to 675 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 3: portray it. We're the only team in this situation that 676 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 3: we have to commit ninety five million a year to 677 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 3: two players. 678 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: By the way, they drafted Oklahoma left tackle. What's what's 679 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: the verdict on him? 680 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 3: Just kind of like average so far? Put him in 681 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 3: their left tackle because of that injury, Tyler Smith had 682 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 3: to kick out there, and I honestly think they kind 683 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 3: of like what they saw, so I think they think 684 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 3: they have a tremendous future with Tyler Smith. Way too 685 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 3: early on guyon to either stay he's great or say 686 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 3: he's horrible, Like I've seen guys who are horrible. He's 687 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 3: not that, Like he's going to be given chances. But 688 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 3: I think that the scariest thing for anybody associated with 689 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 3: the Cowboys is that on the past blocking grade. And 690 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 3: I know you love PFF and sometimes you question them 691 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 3: and you do the film work on your own. I 692 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 3: think Zach Martin got a zero point zero on his 693 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 3: pass blocking. His overall past blocking grade was like a 694 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 3: twenty eight. He got crushed. He got annihilated. And this 695 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 3: is a guy who's going to be perhaps in the 696 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame someday. He's been one of the best 697 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,280 Speaker 3: guards in the league for like close to a decade, 698 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 3: and it seems at least in that game, it seems 699 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:34,399 Speaker 3: like it's falling apart. They're in a bat. To your 700 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 3: point earlier about Dak, I will say that's the biggest 701 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 3: distinction between he and Romo. Romo took players like Miles 702 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 3: Austin and larn Robinson and Gerard on the offensive line 703 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 3: and he elevated them. Say what you will about his playoffs, 704 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 3: and I get that it's a fair criticism, but he 705 00:40:55,040 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 3: was talented enough to lift kind of middling play and 706 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 3: lift the team. And boy, Dak's not doing it right now. 707 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: No, No, Tony Romo had bad offensive lines. They got 708 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 1: good the minute he retired. So Dak has had the 709 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: best running back in the league. DA's had the best 710 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: offensive line on average over the last eight years. And 711 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: as the offensive line is deteriorated and the running back 712 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: room is regressed, it's more Dak. I always said, Romo's 713 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: on a short list of the most underrated quarterbacks. In 714 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: my life, I always thought he was I thought on 715 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: his I thought he was great in the fourth quarter. 716 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: I thought he threw a better ball than Dak. I 717 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: think they move about the same. I think they both 718 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: had leadership abilities. I think Dak's a little bit more 719 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,840 Speaker 1: of a ceo field than Tony. Romo's a little squorelyer 720 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 1: as a guy. But no, it's a Romo never got 721 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: the credit he deserves. Dak's gotten more credit than he deserves. 722 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: That's my take, And I'm fine with Dak. But I 723 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: said as Kirk Cousins is better than Dak. They've both 724 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: made a ton but it's a sit in the pocket 725 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 1: and throw. And kirk Cousins again is going to win 726 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 1: his division again this year. So you know, I think 727 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: if you're you can win in this league. If you're 728 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: paying a ton of money at quarterback for a star 729 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:18,240 Speaker 1: Lamar Mahomes, or you can do it with a rookie 730 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,240 Speaker 1: quarterback on a rookie deal and surround him with stars, 731 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,399 Speaker 1: you cannot be a viable Super Bowl team if you're 732 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: paying a B quarterback to a B plus quarterback a 733 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 1: plus money. That's why kirk cousins deal with Atlanta. It's 734 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: pretty Shrewd. It's not a bad contract, it really isn't. 735 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 1: It's half of what the big money guys in the league, 736 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 1: and therefore they can keep all their Drake London's and 737 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: all their young receivers. 738 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 3: It's wild, though, to watch how great Jared Goff looks, 739 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 3: and you saw him up close and personal, and they 740 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 3: were so ready to move off him, so ready they 741 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 3: were like, give us like a thirty six year old 742 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 3: dude who's taken a million hits. We need this guy 743 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 3: out of here. And right now, I mean, like, is 744 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 3: there anybody playing? I mean you might think of one 745 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 3: or two guys in the in the league right now 746 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 3: playing or hotter than Jared Goff. So it is kind 747 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 3: of wild when you put people around them what they 748 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 3: can do. And he's you know, and and maybe this 749 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 3: Dan Campbell can coach a little bit. Yeah. 750 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: I think when you give Jared Goff a good old 751 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: line in a run game, Todd Gurley, Andrew Whitworth and 752 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:32,959 Speaker 1: the Rams, he can get you to the Super Bowl. 753 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,320 Speaker 1: And you know, I always thought he was Matt Ryan, 754 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: but better arm, better talent, but kind of Matt Ryan. 755 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan won an MVP and got to a Super 756 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: Bowl as well. Matt Mosley does the Doom Day. Matt 757 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: Moseley does the Doomsday Podcast with a longtime ESPN reporter 758 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: ed Warder. So we did this before the Monday night 759 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: football game. So I'm gonna watch. I think I think 760 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is going to play well tonight. That's my guess. 761 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: We'll see how it works out. But Buffalo's all up. 762 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: James Cooch is not going to play the running back. 763 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: That hurts a lot. They're still missing some people in 764 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: the uh in the receiving course. So I think I 765 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: think Aaron's gonna play well. I think Jets have a 766 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: chance to win. 767 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 3: I think Jerry was kind of jealous of of Woody 768 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 3: for making that move, like, hey, you can do that, 769 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 3: you can you can pull the you know you can 770 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 3: do that this or that early into season. That's interesting 771 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,439 Speaker 3: that you think that. I I would think I would 772 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 3: think it would be more of the same. Uh. But 773 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 3: maybe they'll rally around this new coach and and they'll 774 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 3: get something. But it'll be uh, it'll it'll be fascinating 775 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 3: to watch either way. 776 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: Matt Great senior, Zoa's buddy. 777 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 3: Well, appreciate you having me. 778 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 1: The volume.
