Speaker 2: Hello, Welcome inside, Happy Friday, Jon Smith.

3
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,240

Speaker 2: The Jason Smith Show with my bass friend Mike Harmon.

6
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 2: For over forty years, Tirak has been helping customers find

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: the right tires for how, what and where they drive.

8
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 2: Ship Fast and free backed by free Road, has a

9
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tirack

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,919
Speaker 2: dot com. He is the way tire buying should be. Well,

11
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,639
Speaker 2: here we are on a Friday. We're hours away from

12
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:43,319
Speaker 2: the Heisman Trophy. Maybe maybe we know who's gonna win

13
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: after what we found out tonight. Maybe we got another

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 2: crazy day with Sharon More But look this is and

15
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 2: I look, I'm I don't want to say I am

16
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: luke warm on this because you know, I don't know

17
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: that the Jets can get him. Uh, but I don't

18
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: know how excited I am about the Jets if they

19
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 2: got him. But look, Fernando Mendoza is likely going to

20
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: walk away with the Heisman Trophy tomorrow. Probably won't be

21
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: a close vote, but not going to be a runaway.

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: Tonight.

23
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: He is now even more favored to win where he

24
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: takes home the Maxwell and Davey O'Brien Awards.

25
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: Look, he's going to wind up winning.

26
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 2: And we talked about it last week basically, whoever had

27
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: the big week conference championship week, that's gonna be your

28
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy winner.

29
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: Because it's not a stat year. It's not a Joe

30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: Burrow accounted for seventy touchdowns like this is.

31
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you didn't even have a big stat

32
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: to finish it off. Just get the w and move on,

33
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 3: succeed and proceed, right, I.

34
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: Mean it's not and it's not like Mendoza or any

35
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: of the quarterbacks are light in the world on fire

36
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: for the NFL Draft. But yeah, okay, he's gonna win

37
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 2: the Heisman, and he should thirty three touchdowns to lead

38
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: all FBS.

39
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: Think about that for a second.

40
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: Thirty three touchdowns, Like that's a number that in the

41
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 2: early two thousand, it's like, wow, man, thirty Now it's

42
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: like thirty three.

43
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: That's it?

44
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 4: Is it?

45
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: Thirty three touchdowns? What he threw for you? Isn't that?

46
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 5: Like?

47
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: But but he's got like twenty rushing touchdowns, right? Oh no,

48
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 2: we don't. Oh okay, Oh, thirty three Okay, it's it's

49
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: not a stat year. This is one of those years

50
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: where you know, I compare it to it's it's almost like,

51
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: and I'm going back to the mid two thousands when

52
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: Troy Smith won quarterback at Ohio State. Right, Ohio State

53
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 2: was undefeated. He was their quarterback all season. He was

54
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: a great leader, He led them into the you know,

55
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 2: into the playoffs and and and it was one of

56
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: those Hey, he was the quarterback on the best team.

57
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 2: He's gonna win the Heisman Trophy. That's kind of how

58
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: I feel like Foranana Mendoza. Over the course of the season,

59
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 2: Indiana's proven themselves to be the best team in the country,

60
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: beating Ohio State last week, clearly only undefeated team left.

61
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: Banana Mendoza has been pretty good and he's the quarterback.

62
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty simple. That's pretty easy math to

63
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: say Foranana Mendoza Heisman Trophy.

64
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:50,519
Speaker 1: Yeah.

65
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 3: What's been the sad part of it, though, is all

66
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 3: week long it becomes the look at these are not

67
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 3: even comparable. And here's some of these great resumes mentioned Burrow.

68
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 3: Go back to some of the great individual seasons that

69
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 3: we've had through the years. Go back to the heroics

70
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 3: of t Bow or Cam Newton's ridiculous numbers, like, Okay,

71
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: that's not this year. Okay, it's a different It's a

72
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: different landscape where we've got talent spread out all over

73
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 3: these teams and with nil and all of these opportunities.

74
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 3: It's just a different world. What I think is cool

75
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 3: is in the final Final four is you got four

76
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: guys who were far off the map as far as

77
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 3: the Heisman balloting and early projections when we got into

78
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: the season, right current betting odds is Mendoza's ninety two

79
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 3: percent implied probability that he wins. But you look at

80
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 3: coming into the season, arch Man and Cade Club Nick

81
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 3: Garrett Nussmayer got bench multiple times like just keep going

82
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 3: on down the line. You have all those guys, and

83
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: in the end it's Mendoza Pavia Love and saying none

84
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: of them were better than twenty to one, saying was

85
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 3: twenty to one, Love was fifty to one, was one

86
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five to one, and Mendoza was fifty

87
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: five to one in the open. So you just talk

88
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 3: about the run of a college landscape and where we're

89
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 3: at in the just a very different game and we've

90
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 3: talked about it every week, watching it at the political theater.

91
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: That has been the playoff committee and the run through

92
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: and this is just you know, the culmination of that.

93
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,119
Speaker 3: Now for your jets, we wait and see.

94
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

95
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 2: Look, here's the thing is that I'm I'm okay after

96
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: seeing the quarterbacks play over the course of the past

97
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 2: few weeks, right coming into the season, after the first

98
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 2: three four weeks, I'm like, oh, man, it's gonna Mendoza,

99
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: could be Dante Moore, Ty Simpson is playing really well.

100
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: They're gonna have oh whoever needs a quarterback. You're gonna

101
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: be the top of the draft. You're gonna be excited.

102
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: But nobody ever really took that next step. I feel

103
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: like we're we're kind of falling all over ourselves to

104
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 2: try to make for Nana Mendoza and to be look

105
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 2: great college quarterback.

106
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: Right, this is this two different things we're thinking about here.

107
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: But part of the ex is who's going to jump

108
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: to that next level and be a great player? And yeah,

109
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: somebody will, right, Maybe it's Mendoza, maybe it's Dante Moore,

110
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 2: maybe it's Garrett nuss Meyer, who knows. But there's not

111
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 2: that overall excitement of Wow, what a great quarterback class,

112
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: and you see all evaluators saying, hey man, you're going

113
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: to see NFL teams push their quarterback ships to twenty

114
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: twenty seven when it seems like it's going to be

115
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: a little bit better. I guarantee you if Arch Manning

116
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 2: came out this year, he'd be the number one pick.

117
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: Well, and that's where we're in the latest rumor, right,

118
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 3: that's where at if.

119
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: He came out he'll be the number one pick this year. Yeah,

120
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean he finished strong, finished well.

121
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 3: And you know you're talking about potentially teams like the Rams, right,

122
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: we talked about them a little bit with Joe Burrow.

123
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 3: Folks can find that full podcast yesterday. All the speculation,

124
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 3: you know, Matthew Stafford in his future and whatever else.

125
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 3: But when we're starting to look at at teams that

126
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 3: have an established quarterback, I wouldn't be surprised if with

127
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 3: a lot of these players that we're looking at here,

128
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 3: you got two different things going on at play.

129
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: One.

130
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,919
Speaker 3: If if you're not going to get the first round

131
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 3: valuation and evaluation from these talent folks, as you're going

132
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 3: towards the draft, you're like, I can make how much

133
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 3: an nil money if I stick around or I move

134
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 3: to another school or whatever, because it's pretty good money.

135
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: Right.

136
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 3: The other side is that you have teams like the

137
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 3: Rams and maybe others that have a quarterback, and again

138
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 3: the Stafford thing, we don't know longevity, he could walk

139
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 3: away tomorrow. Is the fact that you're looking at maybe

140
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: going back to more of the Packers model if you're

141
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 3: not sure right of, Hey, let's get a guy in

142
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 3: the building before we need to, and we bring them

143
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: along because how many teams have the break glass in

144
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 3: case of emergency? Was like, well, it's got to work

145
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: with this guy, and then they're terrible. It's like, all right,

146
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 3: how long do we run this out before we go

147
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: draft another guy and another one and another. Like it's

148
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: just that same thing year after year. And while folks

149
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 3: don't like Jordan, you know, some folks still try to

150
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 3: go against what Jordan loves become. I think he's a

151
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: lot better in option and a lot more efficient in

152
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 3: option than almost anything else you're running out there. So

153
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 3: it's that kind of thing with these quarterbacks moving forward,

154
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 3: is that maybe we get a little bit of a

155
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 3: landscape shift in the NFL as well in terms of

156
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 3: trying to get these guys straight in because a lot

157
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 3: of them have only played one years at high levels too, right,

158
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 3: and what have we seen with that time and again

159
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 3: in the NFL that don't work? No, right now, that

160
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 3: doesn't work straight from twelve or twelve games of fifteen games?

161
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah.

162
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 2: Bill Parcells would always say, I'm taking a guy with

163
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: three years and thirty starts. Those are the only guys

164
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: I'm not taking something with one year. Who's a one

165
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: year wonder that all of a sudden shows up and

166
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 2: is terrific. Now, certainly there are guys who are going

167
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: to break that mold. Joe Burrow certainly broke that mold,

168
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 2: and other guys will do that. But overall, yeah, it's

169
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 2: a very developmental year quarterback, right, And that's why I

170
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 2: th Look, it's been a tepid Heisman race the entire season.

171
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: I can remember how many conversations have we had about

172
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: the Heisman Trophy over the course of the last two

173
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: and a half months. One we had we had any

174
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: more than a passing thought or a passing question with

175
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 2: Pete Futec on the Heisman trophy. Like it's it's like again,

176
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 2: it's a it's a two thousand and six Troy Smith.

177
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: He's a terrific leader, and he's the best quarterback on

178
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: the best team. And there's your Heisman trophy.

179
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: Whether that's not he goes I mean a little bit preseason,

180
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 3: a little bit as the the stuff started chaotically for

181
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 3: Arch Manning and a few others, But otherwise, I mean,

182
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 3: does the Heisman still have the same juice that it

183
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 3: once did?

184
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: Right? It used to be much must see TV.

185
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 3: Then it became a three hour TV show with a

186
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 3: lot of interviews and cast like I'll tune in the

187
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 3: final five minutes to find out who they crown, uh,

188
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 3: when the betting odds are close. But in this particular case,

189
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 3: I'm sure we'll get Mendoza's speech. And he can't top

190
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 3: what he did after the Big Ten title game anyway, No,

191
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 3: no, no matter what.

192
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: It be tough. That's gonna be tough, right, he ain't top.

193
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 3: In that minute and a half or whatever the hell

194
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 3: that was of excited utterances and alternating between a hype

195
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 3: man and religious talk. I mean, it was just going

196
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 3: back and forth, like, Wow, here's a lot going on

197
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 3: in this man's head. But he is jacked up and

198
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: I'm there with him.

199
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: Now competing with the Heisman Trophy Tomorrow I'm sure will

200
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 2: be whatever twist and turn we get from form Michigan

201
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 2: head coach Sharon Moore, who appeared in court today remotely

202
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: in a prison jumpsuit, facing a felony and a couple

203
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: of misdemeanor chargers following his dismissal as Michigan head coach.

204
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 2: Now with every day, a few more details get out,

205
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 2: and today we get a better example of the whole

206
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: picture where Sharon Moore and this staffer had a relationship

207
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 2: going on the last couple of years. According to many reports,

208
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: was the worst kept secret in the athletic department. And

209
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: when it got close to being found out a couple

210
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: of weeks ago, Sharon Moore, who had somehow the woman

211
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 2: he was having an affair with, got a raise on

212
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: her annual salary from fifty grand a year to ninety

213
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 2: grand a year. Didn't get a bump, didn't get a promotion,

214
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 2: just say hey, you got more money. When this was

215
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 2: started to become a bigger story and unable to be

216
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 2: contained anymore or it was gonna break wide open, he

217
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 2: was advised to break off this relationship and not have

218
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 2: any contact with the stafford. He was advised to not

219
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: have any contact with her. He then decided to fire

220
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 2: her instead of transferring her elsewhere in the football program.

221
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: This is when she came forward to the school with

222
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 2: details of their affair. He was fired. He goes to

223
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 2: her house with a knife. He threatens to kill her,

224
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: and then watch and watch him kill himself. He drops

225
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: the knife, he runs out, The police catch him at

226
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 2: a church. And now this is this mess for Michigan,

227
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 2: as we said last night, just gets bigger and bigger.

228
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: You think this is bad, No, no, just wait twenty

229
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 2: four hours, and wait twenty four hours after that, and.

230
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: After that after that.

231
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 2: This is just the beginning, because now we're gonna get

232
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: into who knew what when with this affair. But the

233
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 2: biggest thing that I take away from this today and

234
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 2: I scratch my head and I go, you know, you

235
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: see in movies, you see characters that somehow juggle all

236
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 2: kinds of balls in the air at once, and they

237
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 2: always seem to make the right decision right like like

238
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: I watched Jax tell her and sons of anarchy, I'm

239
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: going nobody has more on his plate in the not

240
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 2: even the president has more on the plate on his

241
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 2: plate in the world in this guy. How does he

242
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 2: do this?

243
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: Right? How does he do this?

244
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 2: And when you're doing things like here's Sharon Moore who

245
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 2: was married and he was carrying on an affair and

246
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 2: he's a head coach of Michigan.

247
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: This is a dude with a lawn on his plate.

248
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: Man, right, But when it goes on for a couple

249
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,599
Speaker 2: of years, obviously he's able to do things. But the

250
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: mistake that I can't come back to and I shake

251
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 2: my head and go, how do you think this was

252
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 2: a good idea? When you get advised to not work

253
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 2: directly with her anymore. Now, there's many things you could

254
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 2: do at that point, right, You can transfer her. You

255
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 2: can just say, hey, listen, we shouldn't have contact anymore.

256
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 2: It's getting too hot for us. Whatever it is, however

257
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 2: it is. But you really think firing her was gonna

258
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: end it? Like do you think you were that powerful

259
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: that firing her was gonna enit?

260
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 6: It?

261
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: Like she wasn't gonna say, oh, okay, you're gonna fire me. No, no, no, no,

262
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 2: I'll fire you. How about that, I gotta fire you, Rod, No,

263
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 2: I'll fire you, big bong fire you of go, I'm.

264
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: Gonna go to the school. And it's like, well, okay,

265
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: did you really think fire?

266
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 2: That was gonna be it? Like that was gonna she

267
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: was gonna walk away and go huh. We had some laughs.

268
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: That's it. It's over what Yeah that was? That was

269
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: that should not have been a branch? How do you think?

270
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: How did you think that was gonna go that way?

271
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: I read that. That's what baffles.

272
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 2: Me the most about all of this is that, after

273
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 2: all that's gone on and keeping all these balls in

274
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 2: the air, that's the decision he made that. They're like, okay,

275
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: we're gonna fight. I'm gonna fire you. And that's when

276
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 2: she goes to the school. Because I was wondering, oh boy,

277
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: when it turns out she went to the school and

278
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: told them about their affair, you're thinking, okay, why what

279
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 2: is this now? Now the situation could get even more

280
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: out of control. But then oh, he was gonna fire.

281
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: Of course she's gonna go and say oh no, no, no,

282
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 2: you think it none of you. Just wait and see

283
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,839
Speaker 2: what happens now you want to fire me from this job?

284
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 1: Like that?

285
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 2: That's the one where I go, wow, I don't know

286
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 2: how that decision was made.

287
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 3: I really don't what is it? The old hell hath

288
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 3: no fury. As for the forty thousand dollars rais, remember

289
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 3: Babe Ruth was once asked why he was making as

290
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 3: much as the president, and he said he had a

291
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 3: better year. So I think you can look at Babe

292
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 3: Ruth and see the home runs ago probably a better

293
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: year than the president. And and maybe maybe she was

294
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 3: looking at some metrics uh on and off the the

295
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 3: office that that may have have led to that I

296
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 3: don't know, happiness quotients and whatever else. But uh yeah,

297
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 3: in terms of that being the end game to this,

298
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 3: I we we questioned some of the rationality, you know,

299
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,599
Speaker 3: the the heart wants what it wants, whatever else, and

300
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 3: and decision making complicated.

301
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: As you say, you know, you got a lot.

302
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 3: Of things, and and as we've watched plenty of uh what,

303
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 3: spy movies and crime movies and and heist movies during

304
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 3: our time together here at Fox Sports Radio, that we

305
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: could probably have our own letterboxed uh subset.

306
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: For what we've done.

307
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 3: You and I've had all the novels that you've read

308
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 3: and and that I've listened to you talk about Uh

309
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 3: that that we we've got every permutation. It never ends

310
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 3: with hey, I can fire this person and it's gonna

311
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 3: go well, that's never been a.

312
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: Plot point in any of this stuff.

313
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 3: And common sense, No, no editor is gonna take that

314
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 3: in from a writer and go, yeah, that's how.

315
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: It should end. No, they're kicking back, going that's not

316
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: gonna work.

317
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 2: I mean, and in big business now, whenever there is

318
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 2: a situation that involves something like this, it is what

319
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: is the best thing to do?

320
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: Do we do we go and fire them? Do we wait?

321
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 2: Do we make sure we cross all our t's and

322
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 2: dot our i's where we make that decision because we

323
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: don't know how re litigious things are gonna get right

324
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: in front of the lawyers, that's right, right. Look at

325
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 2: what happens in sports now when you see someone embroiled

326
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 2: in a scandal.

327
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: Uh.

328
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 2: And and you know what ESPN used to do this?

329
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 2: Uh really really they were, they were at the forefront

330
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 2: of this honestly. Is that when something would happen and

331
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: and if somebody did something that embarrassed the brand, embarrassing.

332
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: We've seen it elsewhere as well.

333
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 2: You know, he's seen it a fox, We've seen in

334
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 2: places right, So when the decision is always okay, we

335
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 2: could fire this person right away, but then it's gonna

336
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 2: get litigious, and then we're gonna be dragged and it

337
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 2: goes a big deal and it's dragged into court and

338
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 2: it's all these things.

339
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: Or we wait it out.

340
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: And their contract ends and we don't hire them again,

341
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: and that's it and we move on and it's and

342
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 2: it's and it's just and it's way cleaner.

343
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: And that's kind of how things are done.

344
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: Like you you don't see like that's why companies have

345
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: to take so much care into what's going on when

346
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 2: you fire someone, because you don't know what that's gonna

347
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 2: mean coming back at you.

348
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: What what is that gonna be there?

349
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: You fire someone, you open that up to all kinds

350
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 2: of lawsuits, and who knows what's gonna be out there?

351
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: What one person knows, what it doesn't. It's a big unknown.

352
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: So to make that decision to fire somebody when you

353
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 2: don't know how it's gonna go, I.

354
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: Go, wow, that is that is That is not That's.

355
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: Not a page out of out of any kind of

356
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 2: business school I've ever been to. That when you hey,

357
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 2: when you want to fire somebody. You gotta be damn

358
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 2: sure that you have all your your pages figured out

359
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 2: and your your t's crossed and your i's dotted before

360
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 2: you want to make a move like that.

361
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 3: That's a plausible deniability up the top. But if this

362
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 3: is the worst kept secret, okay, now it's see who

363
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 3: knows what where? How when we talk about litigiousness, I

364
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 3: mean they think of it just in sports, the number

365
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 3: of issues that have been at all places. A lot

366
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 3: of times it's the as you say, let the clock

367
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 3: run out, like we're not getting into the legal ease

368
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 3: because discovery is a patting gas. John Gruden right as

369
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 3: excited as he is to get a box a crap

370
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: from school X and do it unboxing, like he's one

371
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 3: of those little kids with holiday toys. You're telling me

372
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 3: he wouldn't rather have been coaching. Now, he may end

373
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: up getting some massive ass settlement and at all, but

374
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: doesn't he always strike you as a guy that would

375
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 3: have rather been on a sideline somewhere?

376
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think so?

377
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 3: Right, So you know, and just go on down the

378
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 3: line that things come out. I mean that the Kaepernick case, right,

379
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 3: I mean, how many of the NFL owners like we

380
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 3: don't need anything coming out of this. Figure out what

381
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 3: the settlement is and you can debate how much ended

382
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 3: up being paid out in that and so many other

383
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 3: cases across our sporting landscape that have nothing to do

384
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 3: with dalliances and office romances. Those are plenty and there where.

385
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: We've got those all across the landscape. Plenty of minds

386
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 3: have blown up over the course of the years for those.

387
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: But just talk about just from the straight business part

388
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 3: of it, it still just goes back to pragmatism of all. Right,

389
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 3: let's see while it is not grounded or hasn't festered

390
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 3: in rationality, at some point we need to be adults

391
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 3: and come to an endgame. Uh, you know which is

392
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 3: bet and for this you know his family, friends, you

393
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 3: know everybody associated, right, the wife and kids. Uh, and

394
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 3: the how this all came to a head, Like you're

395
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 3: you're just if you feel terrible for all of it,

396
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 3: but you know, the firing was the the step if

397
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 3: you avoided that, I mean settlements and agreements and separation

398
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 3: termination however you want to want to come to it.

399
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 3: This was just not the way to try to end

400
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 3: multiple years. I mean, this wasn't a one one or two. Uh,

401
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 3: you know, meet up kind of things. This is a

402
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,840

Speaker 5: Right.

445
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,560

457
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,199
Speaker 3: will say this. I put together a little bit of

458
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 3: a mix while I was making breakfast for you know,

459
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 3: to hang it out out with the kid this morning,

460
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 3: and I had the Alex Tyshert Super mix going, and

461
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 3: at some point she just looked at me and said,

462
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 3: are you okay? Between the metal matchups? Christopher Lee, DMX,

463
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 3: you name it? Like it got to like five to

00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 3: the fifth song, and she's like, dude, what happened? What

465
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 3: happened to your old Elvis and Engelbert and whatever else?

466
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 2: Like it's a new world order, man, what do you want?

467
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: So we could be looking at not one but two

468
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 2: quarterback changes this week.

469
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: In the NFL. One definitive Lee and one name the

470
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: definitive one.

471
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 2: It is the New Brady Era in the NFL, just

472
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: like Tom Brady showed up in two thousand and one.

473
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 2: He comes in at the end of the game because

474
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: of an injury to a quarterback and he plays okay

475
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 2: but not great. Started the next week he takes the

476
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 2: Patriots on a run. They become a two decade Super

477
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 2: Bowl champion. Same thing. Brady comes in last week for

478
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 2: the Jets. Play's okay a little bit, but they lose it.

479
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 2: Now we're starting a new two decade run thanks to

480
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 2: Brady Cook, who will start a quarterback for the Jets

481
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 2: on Sunday.

482
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 1: The New Brady Era is here.

483
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 2: Mike Harmon, embrace it. It's just like the old one.

484
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, man, Watch out Jacksonville. Brady Cook four touchdowns,

485
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 2: three point fifty and it's wall.

486
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: Look at this. All of a sudden, we have a

487
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: new Brady.

488
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 2: The new Brady will be the hot will be the

489
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 2: pictures everywhere. It'll be a superimposed Brady Cook and a

490
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: Tom Brady Jersey. Brady Brady. Every twenty years we get

491
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 2: a repeat of history. And we had it twenty years

492
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 2: ago with Tom Brady. Now we're getting it now with

493
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 2: Brady Cook.

494
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: This would be fantastic. Are you kidding?

495
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 3: Plus thirteen and a half on the road left for dead?

496
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 3: If he comes out and has a massive game, Are

497
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 3: you kidding?

498
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: Smith?

00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 3: Come on, get on board this that you have the

500

00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: gonna yeah. No, I mean it's not New Brady. Yeah.

503
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 3: I don't know that the transference policy of just names works.

504
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: But hey, I like the cut of your gym.

505
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 3: I like your optimism because you've been selling it down

506
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 3: the river. You've been mad about the Mets all week

507
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 3: and now, and now you get to this game. Let's

Speaker 3: I don't even see one for betting time to passing

512
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 3: yards here time cook. I don't even say they put

513
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 3: a number on it.

514
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,879

00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 2: new Tom Brady. Blank that man, I got your new

519
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 2: Tom Brady. It's dude's just Brady. We just called Brady.

00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: Get ready. Oh my goodness, this would be fair.

522
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 3: I mean, it'd be a fantastic thing for you because

523
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 3: it would really throw the AFC cell into tizzy. Because

524
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 3: right now people in Jacksonville, those folks, I gotta go

525
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 3: find that original Jacksonville Jaguars hat that I have sitting

526
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 3: around for when my aunt and uncle moved down there,

527
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 3: when he was there for work, as they he was

528
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 3: a charter member of their season ticket holders. He embraced

529
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 3: it fully, and right now they're sitting there going it's

530
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 3: ours for the taking.

531
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,199
Speaker 1: It's the Jets.

532
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 2: Starting Sunday, the Jets own the next two decades in

533
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: the NFL.

534
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: They ought it's the Brady. It's just like it was. Right.

535
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 2: Brady comes in and Drew bledste gets hurt and he

536
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 2: plays okay, you know, he drives them a little bit,

537
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: but he fails on fourth down. The Jets wind up winning,

538
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 2: and then okay, the next week things start to get better.

539
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 2: They go to the super Bowl. They went and look

540
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 2: at this, that's that was last week.

541
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: He came in.

542
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 2: Yes, he turned the ball over a couple of times,

543
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 2: had a big touchdown drop. But other than that he played. Okay,

544
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 2: Now get ready to you think Jacksonville's good. Watch what happens?

565
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 3: at right now, average for quarterbacks. Jalen Hurts is sixth

566
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 3: at nineteen and a half. Yeah, that's where we're at

567
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 3: in our quarterback run for this year. Back end QB twelve,

568
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence seventeen and a half a game.

569
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: Look at him.

570
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 2: Nobody more average, no more average fantasy quarterback than that,

571
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 2: right there?

572
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: Come on, ahead of Love, He's ahead of Baker, He's

573
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 3: ahead of Sam Sam, Sam, He's ahead of Lamar.

574
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 2: The big question is, though, will he be ahead of

575
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: Philip Rivers, who may or may not start and play

576
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 2: for the Colts on Sunday against the Seahawks. Right, we've

577
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 2: been tracking this story all week long, and the Colts

578
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 2: are being cagey as to who's going to start a

579
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: quarterback for them this week.

580
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: Is it going to be Philip Rivers? Will it be

581
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: Burt Jones?

582
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 2: I don't know what caginess you really need to worry about.

583
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 2: I mean, you're looking at Philip Rivers film from five

584
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 2: years ago. Really, the Seahawks are favored in this game

585
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 2: by thirteen and a half. And the only question for

586
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 2: me in this game, depending on who plays quarterback, if

587
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 2: it's Brett Rippon or Philip Rivers is okay. So if

588
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 2: it's Brett Rippon or Philip Rivers, that means do I

589
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 2: take the Seahawks by twenty or the Seahawks by thirty?

590
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 2: That's that's the only question I have. Are they gonna

591
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 2: win by twenty or by thirty? This is I mean, really,

592
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: I can't believe Philip Rivers hasn't said, hey, guys, maybe

593
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 2: after this week. This is this is a top five

594
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 2: defense in the NFL, and they are talking about a heater.

595
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 2: They're on a heater. Maybe next week things will get

596
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 2: a little bit easier for me and I can have

597
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 2: a little bit more of the playbook.

598
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: Grasp.

599
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 2: This is gonna be ugly. The cults are on the road.

600
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: They're in free fall. I really, man, it's a pin

601
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: your ears back day for the Seahawks. Seahawks by twenty

602
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 2: or thirty, that's the all the difference in the quarter.

603
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't know.

604
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 2: I think if Rippin plays, maybe they win by twenty

605
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 2: because they'll go a little bit more conservative. But if

606
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 2: Philip Rivers plays, I'll let them sling it. So maybe

607
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 2: one extra pick six, maybe in two extra turnovers and

608
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 2: one pick, they run all the way back to the

609
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 2: ten yard line and kick a field goal. So yeah,

610
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 2: by twenty, by twenty or by thirty if it's Philip Rivers.

611
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 3: What do we got? Seahawks fourth in the NFL with

612
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 3: forty one sacks, right now behind the Broncos who put

613
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 3: up fifty five on the year. Falcons at forty eight

614
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 3: sneaky because well, we've just kind of mocked them most

615
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 3: of the year until last night's win and Captain Kirk

616
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: but and then the Browns at forty four. Most of

617
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 3: those mombiles Garrett as a playce. And for those that

618
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 3: don't know who Bert Jones is, yeah, let's go all

619
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 3: the way back. Seventy three to eighty two were his

620
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: active years Baltimore and then with the Rams to close

621
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 3: it out in his career.

622
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 2: So do you want he was NFL MVP. I think

623
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 2: in seventy six or seventy seven.

624
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: He was the MVP of the NFL one year and he.

625
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: Had a great miller like commercial Burt Jones Once upon

626
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 2: a time.

627
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 3: He had five awards, including the NFL AP MVP, the

628
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 3: PFWA MVP, all of those in nineteen seventy six. All right,

629
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 3: go back to seventy six, going back to our our

630
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 3: fun and exciting world that we were talking about with

631
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 3: the Heisman Trophy. By way of comparison, he had twenty

632
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 3: four touchdowns against nine interceptions average. He completed sixty percent

633
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 3: of his passes and through for thirty one hundred yards

634
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 3: nine point two average yards per attempt, fifteen.

635
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,479
Speaker 1: Yards per completion. Boy, what a different NFL it was

636
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: back in the day. It's interesting.

637
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not just this week that, oh, here's Philip

638
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,479
Speaker 2: Rivers coming out against an NFL team.

639
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: This is Philip Rivers coming out.

640
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: Honestly, the Seahawks right now probably the second best team

641
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 2: in the NFL. I take them behind the Rams, and

642
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 2: not that all the teams are great, but somebody's got

643
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 2: to be first, somebody's got to be second, somebody's got

644
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 2: to be thirty second. The Seahawks right now, number two

645
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 2: team in the NFL. I would take the Seahawks over

646
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,479
Speaker 2: the Patriots right now. I take the Seahawks over the

647
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 2: Broncos right now. I take their defense to be more opportunistic.

648
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not just saying, hey, we're playing starting

649
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 2: against a good team you're on the road in a

650
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 2: hostile environment against one of the.

651
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 3: Top two teams in the league. Do we really think

652
00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: that's gonna go forty one sacks? You're talking about an

653
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 3: offensive line that's had its issues of injuries. Riley Leonard

654
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 3: doesn't carry an injury designation even though they say he's

655
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 3: week to week, So we have no idea what that means. Really,

656
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 3: trying to be crafty and cagey is stiking as we

657
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 3: end the week. But yeah, it no matter how much

658
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 3: I want to be positive, and you know, it's the

659
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 3: Christmas season and all that fun stuff. I've talked it

660
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 3: into existence because now that Carol Brady getting her voice

661
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 3: back to sing at church thing is showing up on

662
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 3: my timeline, So there you go. But it's just the

663
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 3: idea of let's be realists about it. There might be

664
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 3: a couple of plays, they might be able to scheme

665
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 3: a few things up, but you got sixty minutes of football.

666
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 3: I mean, that's an awful lot of time for these

667
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 3: guys especially. We've talked about sack totals, We've talked about incentives,

668
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 3: we talked about trying to still battle the final four

669
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 3: weeks to see if you can't get yourself not only

670
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 3: a division win, but to be the number one seed. Right,

671
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 3: all of that stuff still at play here. So yeah,

672
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 3: you're not gonna take this lightly, and you're gonna go

673
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 3: in to bury him if he does play, and even

674
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 3: if he doesn't, are you really worried about Brett Rippon?

675
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 3: This is a guy that's bounced around a bunch. Riley

676
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 3: Leonard showed you know just what he doesn't know at

677
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 3: this point, right, It's just a very difficult proposition for

678
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 3: this Indianapolis team once upon a time, resplendent and full

679
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 3: of hope, making trades, making deals to forti five things

680
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 3: for a second half and then we want watch poor

681
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,600

Speaker 2: All Right, we get the Browns and the Bears Sunday.

759
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 2: And first let's deal with the Browns and Shador Sanders,

760
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 2: who was going to start the rest of the season.

761
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: We found it out earlier this week.

762
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,959
Speaker 2: He was asked about his comments on it, and he said, listen,

763
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 2: only focused on the Bears going forward. Uh, something a

764
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: little bit different about Shador Sanders, you know who he

765
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,959
Speaker 2: kind of feels like so far, Uh with what he's

766
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 2: what he's like on the field and off the field,

767
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 2: he kind of feels like he's the next Jameis Winston, right,

768
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 2: like Jamis you see where his career is now. Man,

769
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 2: He was fun, he was dynamic. He threw a lot

770
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 2: of touchdowns, threw a lot of interceptions, right, was very

771
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 2: gregarious off the field, was always someone you wanted to

772
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 2: hear what he had to say for whatever reason. And and

773
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 2: and clearly Shadoor Sanders has the built in deon Sanders.

774
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 2: Uh and and and Colorado attention coming into the NFL,

775
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 2: But that's kind of what he feels like. Sanders has

776
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 2: a lot of talent. He's a gunslinger. He's gonna he's

777
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 2: gonna move you up and down the field. He's also

778
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 2: gonna give the ball to the other team a couple

779
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 2: of times a game, just like Jameis Winston did.

780
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: He's entertaining.

781
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 2: Whether he is saying something that you say, Wow, that

782
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: was pretty cool. I give him credit for that, or

783
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 2: saying something you go, man, I don't know that I

784
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 2: would have said that.

785
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: I don't know about that.

786
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 2: But he's always someone that stirs, that knows how to

787
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 2: stir the drink. Uh and and it is going to

788
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 2: be this kind of I would say, this kind of

789
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 2: performance we're gonna get on Sunday and throughout where he's

790
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 2: gonna be someone that is going to make throws and

791
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 2: make plays you go, wow, this is our guy. And

792
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 2: then he's gonna make maddening decisions that make you go, oh,

793
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 2: we can't go anywhere near this guy.

794
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,919
Speaker 1: He's a backup. But overall as entertaining. You think about

795
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: the roller coaster ride and how much.

796
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 2: Fun Jameis Winston's career has been, like I feel like

797
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 2: Shador Sanders in a little bit of a different way,

798
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 2: is the same way with his talent. How he approaches

799
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 2: the game, how how we how we gravitate towards what

800
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 2: he has to say, makes news off the field, like

801
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 2: almost feels like this, this is the kind of guy

802
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 2: he's gonna be for his career. Yeah, except for that

803
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 2: little run in with that reporter way back and when

804
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 2: right the and I A, you know, the preseason stuff.

805
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 2: He said all the right things, like even getting after

806
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 2: his sibling, his mom or whatever.

807
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 3: It's like, hey, come on, like we're talking football, like

808
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 3: all the right things. Seems like a overall a pretty

809
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 3: good kid that's just trying to learn and come along.

810
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 3: So doesn't mean that behind the scenes there's not more

811
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 3: to it, right. I still don't believe in a thirty

812
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 3: two team conspiracy. It's the NFL. If anybody thought he

813
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 3: was really gonna be able to come right in and

814
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 3: help them win, come on, these guys. We know the

815
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 3: cutthroat business this is and how quickly they churned through guys.

816
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 3: But but for Shador, we've seen some big plays. The

817
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 3: fact that he is willing to take shots downfield has

818
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 3: opened up some big opportunities. We've seen Judkins, we've seen

819
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 3: Samson's no Samson this week, he's been ruled out. But

820
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 3: where they've able to take short passes and make chaos

821
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 3: because the linebackers have to play honestly down the field

822
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 3: as it translated into massive numbers for those wide receivers. No,

823
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 3: but Harold Fannon is a weekly fantasy hero for you here.

824
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 3: Jerry Judy actually seems interested in playing football again. All

825
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 3: of that is bed as opposed to, you know, the

826
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 3: shot putting that Dylan Gabriel was doing back in the day.

827
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, for Shador, it's a matter of avoiding the

828
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 3: catastrophic turnovers because they'll move the ball on the Bears,

829
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 3: I have no doubt on that. It's just you know,

830
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 3: will they be able to go you into what has

831
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: led to Elite leading twenty seven turnovers. The answer is

832
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 3: probably yes. So he's got to be smart with the

833
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 3: football and it's gonna be a rock that he's throwing

834
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 3: as well, right because it's gonna be twenty below zero

835
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 3: as a game time temperature. If you want to go

836
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 3: see a football game in the freezing cold to say

837
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 3: you did it, you can get in for undred hundred

838
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 3: bucks to watch this, I would advise against.

839
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: I expect them to move the football.

840
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 2: I expect the Bears to get turnover and start the

841
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 2: Bears defensive fantasy. And where we're at right now, all

842
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 2: the questions with Chicago coming off the lost Sunday. They're

843
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 2: gonna win this game and they're still gonna win the

844
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 2: NFC North. Okay, all of this, Oh look, it's all

845
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: coming down. They lose to Green Bay.

846
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 1: They lost on the last play and if DJ Moore

847
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: and if Caleb Williams waited another second on that last

848
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 1: fourth down pass, DJ Moore walks into the.

849
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 2: End zone, right, we had multiple options that he missed.

850
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 2: It's an okay loss. It happens. It's part of Caleb Williams' growth.

851
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 2: But Green Bay is two inconsistent. They have a tough

852
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: game this week that I don't think they're gonna win.

853
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 2: And after this week, we're talking about the Bears being

854
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,240
Speaker 2: back on top of the NFC North and they're gonna

855
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: win the division. And we're gonna say they may not

856
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 2: be home Field Bears, but they're gonna win the division.

857
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 2: By the time the season ends, we're gonna be fantastic

858
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 2: with all look at the Bears and singing their praises.

859
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 2: Everything is fine for the Bears.

860
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 3: Mike Carmon, Yeah, I think when we look at this

861
00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 3: one right, it's another great opportunity for the growth of

862
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 3: Ozzy Trapillo out of Boston College. Why left tackle, baby,

863
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 3: you get Miles Garrett. He's acquitted himself pretty nicely against

864
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 3: the other pass rushers in the NFL.

865
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,280
Speaker 1: Another big test this week, Exit out about a Fresca

866
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: exit swollen dome.

867
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 2: So there it is the most underrated game of the week,

868
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 2: Shadure and the Bears and a lot of turnovers. But

869
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 2: coming up next we preview the two biggest games in

870
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 2: the NFL.

871
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: Keep it Air Football Friday, Fuck
