3
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: lot of football to get into because the Green Bay

4
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: Packers get their revenge on Rogers destroy the Pittsburgh Steelers

5
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: in the second half win by ten. We will dive

6
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: into that game. Jordan Love kind of look like Rogers

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: in his prime. Scataboo shattered his ankle. The Atlanta Falcons

8
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: organization got shattered today by the Dolphins. We got Brian

9
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: Kelly got fired, so we will dive into it all.

10
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,519

Speaker 1: commanders are kind of in shambles based on last year.

24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: But we will be live after that, as we are

25
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: after every primetime game. But before we dive into some football,

26
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, we gotta tell you about my friends, my partners.

27
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,760

31
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,960

41
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: it and then there's an added whatever, ten, fifteen, twenty percent.

42
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: You're like, what the hell? That actually wasn't the price.

43
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: It's not the way game time roles they factor it in.

44

52
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: That was really impressive. That's the best half of football

53
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: and really just I would say the best game. I

54
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: know they started a little sluggish, but they're on the

55
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: road against the pack the Steelers after they had a

56
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: mini by given that they played last Thursday, like you're

57
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 1: at a disadvantage, that's the best performance they've had, I

58
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: don't know in thirty thirty five forty days since the

59
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: first couple weeks of the season. And it was all

60
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: about the quarterback in the offense. If Jordan Love is

61
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: gonna play like that, this team can win the AFC

62
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: because here or excuse me, the NFC. Right when your

63
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: offense is that dynamic, we know how good Tucker Craft is.

64
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs is I think excellent. Jacobs is just a

65
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: war daddy. I go to battle with that guy any

66
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: day of the week. Twice on Sundays. Their offensive line

67
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: is good. We know how good their play caller is.

68
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: Christian Watson came back and had a big play tonight.

69
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: And we've been saying this, and a lot of you

70
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: guys have been reaching out being like, what's la Floor's deal?

71
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: Why is he so conservative with Jordan Love? And I

72
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: don't know if something clicked. Obviously, they were down at

73
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: halftime and they came out of the gates. They forced

74
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: to three and out and on their next three possessions

75
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: it was touchdown, touchdown, touchdown. In this ball game, it's

76
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: a wrap like the the The Steelers aren't coming back

77
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: from that. And to me, the success of this team

78
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: is gonna go as far because if they have a lead,

79
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: their pass rush is gonna dominate. Micah is one of

80
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: the more naturally gifted pass rushers. We've seen him like

81
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: the Internet age. You give me up ten points, second,

82
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: third and long guaranteed passing positions. He is a dominant force.

83
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: You saw Jeff Halfley tonight, moving him all over the place.

84
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: On third downs, they had him like starting at linebacker

85
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: and running up He's such a versatile chess piece. And

86
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: the rest of their defensive linemen, obviously with Sean Gary,

87
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: they have incredible amount of players who can create pressure,

88
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: starting with one of the best. But it's about getting

89
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: a lead, and that's how they're gonna tee off and

90
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: that's they're gonna they're gonna dominate. But to me, offense

91
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: like it's the best performance Jordan Love has had in

92
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: a long long time. Obviously, tied a Packer record with

93
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: Brett Fahv for twenty straight completions, and he was dealing

94
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: the ball all over the place. I mean, one thing,

95
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: in this offense, you're gonna get some pretty basic quick

96
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: reads ball out of your hand, and if you're accurate,

97
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of easy completions. But tonight

98
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: there were two plays. The one where he stands in there,

99
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 1: I guess he doesn't quite stand in there, but he's

100
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: kind of backpedaling as there are multiple defenders bearing down

101
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 1: on him, and he throws a fifty to fifty ball

102
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: up to Tucker Craft, who, let's face it, probably not

103
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: a fifty to fifty ball, it's probably more eighty twenty

104
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: for him. He makes the play and he takes it

105
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: for like sixty or seventy yards the play where Elliott's

106
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 1: leg got snapped, and then there was another play where

107
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: he scrambled to his right, threw across his body down

108
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: the field, overthrew a leaping defender, and hit Christia Watson

109
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: for a huge explosive play. If he's going to bring

110
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: that to the table, like this is a Super Bowl contender,

111
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: And that was the first time I would imagine a

112
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: lot of Packer fans agree like him and Lafleur were

113
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: just perfectly in sync. And let's face it, the irony

114
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: of the night is that's how Rogers looks just dominated.

115
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 1: His final numbers tonight were twenty nine of thirty seven

116
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 1: for three hundred and sixty yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions.

117
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: That wasn't Aaron Rodgers like performance. And I give Aaron

118
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: some credit because he even talked about it. When they

119
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: drafted Jordan Love, he did not want to treat him

120
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: like he was treated and by all accounts their relationship

121
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: is really good, and Jordan Love gives him a lot

122
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: of credit for including him and forcing him to be

123
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: part of it. And I think Jordan loves driven Packer

124
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: fans somewhat mad because they have seen in that first year,

125
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: by the end of the season him look like Aaron Rodgers,

126
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: and then last year was all over the map. And

127
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: I think a lot of that has to do with

128
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: him getting injured early in the season, and then this year,

129
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: let's face it's been clunky. It's just been bizarre. Like

130
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 1: people keep asking me, what do you think. I'm like,

131
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. You just watch them and something's off,

132
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: and then you see tonight and let's face it, part

133
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: of it is the Steelers defense is not good. But

134
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: when you play a defense that isn't good, if you

135
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: are good, you eviscerate them, You annihilate them. And I

136
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: can imagine that's what they're saying at halftime, like these

137
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: guys can't cover us, what are we doing? And they

138
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: flipped a switch and they came out. And I do

139
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: think that's the type performance that can kind of ignite

140
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,239
Speaker 1: a season, because the other thing, if you're the Packers

141
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: right now, you go, that's our ceiling. We know our

142
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: past rush is ceiling because we've seen it throughout this season.

143
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: We have seen Mike a dominate. We have seen Rashaan

144
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: Gary play at an elite level. We trust those guys

145
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: and Jeff Hafley and the rest of the unit, like,

146
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: we feel good about it, especially if we have the lead.

147
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: The question mark has been offense and the quarterback, Like,

148
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: what's going on? Well, that's the ceiling. And if that's

149
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: the ceiling, you go, why can't we compete to be

150
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: the number one seed and win this division? And then

151
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: you look at the division you go, the Bears, you're

152
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: a fraud. I mean, your quarterback's not very good. You

153
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: just lost a Snoop hunt Lee on the road to

154
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: a team that was one and five and had a

155
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: million injuries all season. Even the guys today that were

156
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: back had not played well early in the season. And

157
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: you kind of got worked in that game because your

158
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: quarterback was atrocious. And then Minnesota has a million injuries

159
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: and a major problem at quarterback. They literally don't have one.

160
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: So you go, that was a team that was in

161
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: our way, literally beating us last year. See you guys,

162
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:49,599
Speaker 1: so it's us versus alliance. There are foe and we

163
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: beat them earlier this season. Lions clearly aren't going to

164
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: go away, but like this is two This is a

165
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 1: two horse race, and I think both these two teams,

166
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: I would imagine Lafloor, Dan Campbell, the organizations are thinking,

167
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: we win this division thirteen to fourteen wins, we have

168
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: a good shot at the number one overall seat. Obviously,

169
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: the Eagles took advantage today of the Giants, but I

170
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: still think they have some question marks against better teams.

171
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: You know, the Rams in Seattle are good, but they're

172
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 1: gonna beat up on each other. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers

173
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: are five and two and have it a very impressive season,

174
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: but they got a million injuries and they just lost

175
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: Mike Evans essentially for the season. So it is wide open.

176
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: And if you're the Green Bay Packers, you made this

177
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: massive trade to get Micah Parksons to be in this position,

178
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: and for a couple of weeks there it felt like

179
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: what is going on? They were winning some games, but

180
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: like that tie against the Cowboys, how did that happen?

181
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: And then you watch a game like tonight, You're like,

182
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: that shouldn't happen. We're way better than most of these teams.

183
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: Because you saw them playing Pittsburgh and Listen, I think

184
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: these last couple of weeks brings Pittsburgh. I think we

185
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: have to look at them a lit little bit through

186
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: a different lens, right, But it was like, Okay, this

187
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: is I would have said coming into this game, I

188
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: don't know how high Pittsburgh ceiling is, but they should

189
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: double digit win team and win the division. And then

190
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: you watch tonight you go, They're not even close to

191
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: the level of the Green Bay Packers because their offense

192
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: isn't explosive enough and their defense isn't good. And I

193
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: think that was the big thing, is like their defense

194
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: wasn't good Lafleur Jordan Love Pedal of the Medal, and

195
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: they just eviserated them. They can't cover anybody. You saw

196
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: it last week and then you saw it tonight. And

197
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: when your pass rush isn't just dominating, it's like, listen,

198
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: no one's acting like Durrell Reeves, Dion Sanders and uh,

199
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: I'm trying to Chris Harris Junior is their slot guy.

200
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: No one acts like the Packer secondary is some all

201
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: time great unit. But their pass rush, linebacker play, it's

202
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 1: just really good. And you're watching the Pittsburgh Steelers, You're like, hey,

203
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: what's the easiest way to make average defensive back play

204
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: look good? A pass rush? You watch the night Jordan

205
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: Love was just slinging that thing around and it's not

206
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: all just him getting rid of the ball after one step.

207
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: So if you can't cover people in the NFL, especially

208
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: in their conference, look who they gotta play in big

209
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: games would be Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Indiana Jones, I mean,

210
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, Like, I can't take you seriously, it hasn't

211
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: even got cold yet for your quarterback who's actually played

212
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: pretty good. The problem when you watch the Pittsburgh seel

213
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: is like you watch the Packers, you go, they're very

214
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: well rounded, right, they got multiple wide receivers, a sweet

215
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: tight end. They always have a good offensive line. Defensively,

216
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: good defensive line, good linebackers. Their DB's plays a unit.

217
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: You watch, you go, well, you're paying DK one hundred

218
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars. Okay, I get it. He looks

219
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: like Terrell Owens. Doesn't exactly play like him. You would

220
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: like a little more for what you're paying, but still

221
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: freak show. Any game when he's on can take over.

222
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: So it's like, I don't I don't agree with the move.

223
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: But I understand it. You got no other wide receivers,

224
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: you got a bunch of tight ends, and you got

225
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren, and they did a good job tonight like

226
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: explaining because I'm like, God, he's feel like he's running

227
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: a little harder, how hard he trained and in Hawaii

228
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: carrying the soccer nets. But it's like that's he would

229
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: be an unreal number two back, but they kind of

230
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: have to treat him at times like the number one back.

231
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: So your running game isn't that great. Your passing game

232
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: is limited to essentially one wide receiver. One of your

233
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: tight ends should probably be an offensive tackle, So you

234
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: have no explosive passing game. So the moment the Packers

235
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: flipped it and they got up, especially by more than

236
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: a touchdown, the Steelers are not built for that. They

237
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: have no shot to come back. It's whatever, sixteen to

238
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: seven for the Packers at halftime, it's like they're not

239
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: out of it. They'll be fine. If you reverse that,

240
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: Steelers would be screwed. They are not built the comeback.

241
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: And for a long time, and we could litigate this

242
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: some other time about Aaron Rodgers' comebacks never been his

243
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: strong point something coward is hammered for years. Derek Carr

244
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: famously actually has way more comebacks than Aaron Rodgers. I

245
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: think a lot of people would say for a lot

246
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: of his career he was not losing. Agree. I think

247
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: some people would say it's just not really stink. But

248
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: at forty one years old, like, I'm not putting tonight

249
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: or last week on him, but he does like at

250
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: that age you need some help. And defensively the Steelers,

251
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: like Tomlin's a defensive guy, and the defense is now

252
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: getting worse and worse of the week. It's not even

253
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 1: cold outside yet you can't just depend like TJ. Wat's

254
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: not Miles Garrett. He's not just gonna have four or

255
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: five sacks a game. And these last couple of weeks

256
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: you're like, I'd like a little more. What are the

257
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 1: other guys? And there's just nowhere to be found. How

258
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: many times Love wasn't sacked tonight? Think about that. Obviously

259
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: Love has some mobility, but wasn't sacked. You had ten

260
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: days off, I'll give you a little bit of pass

261
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: on the Thursday night game. Your road team a little older,

262
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: tough spot. Obviously, not a great loss to lose, to

263
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. But still, but then you get ten days

264
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: off at home you can't sack them one time. That's

265
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: that's pretty crazy. I mean it really is. And then

266
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: on the flip side, it was like they were just

267
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: feasting on Aaron as that game went on, they were

268
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: all over his ass and I'm watching the Steelers are going.

269
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: A reason that I started to believe in you a

270
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: couple weeks ago was like, well, you have the formula

271
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: of the pass rush. That just translates like that works.

272
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: You don't have to have the best marketing. If you

273
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: have great food, people gonna talk about it and people

274
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: gonna show up at your restaurant. You can have some deficiencies.

275
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: But if you've got TJ. Watt some of the other

276
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: guys all over the quarterback all the time, like, your

277
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: defense can be pretty good. I'm watching now it's like, yeah,

278
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: it's non existent. You're paying premiums for guys that aren't

279
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: producing premiums. And now all of a sudden, like the

280
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: Bengals gotta be kicking themselves if they don't blow a

281
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: fourteen point lead the day in the fourth quarter to

282
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn and Justin Fields. They had four wins, same

283
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: as the Pittsburgh Steelers. So yeah, I mean, I just

284
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: think the Steelers, man, I don't think they're a player away,

285
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: and I would imagine they'll try to do something here

286
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: at the deadline, but I don't know if that fixes much.

287
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: This is a very flawed team, and listen to the

288
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: AFC is clearly not as good as it's been the

289
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks or years. But I don't see

290
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: this team doing much. They're just gonna flip a switch

291
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: like Jalen Ramsey, TJ. Watt, some of these guys are

292
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: just gonna become like their prime version of a couple

293
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: of years ago as it starts getting freezing cold outside now.

294
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: Based on their division, you know, when you start one

295
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: to five, you got a pretty big hole to dig

296
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: out of. But the easiest way to dig yourself out

297
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: of a hole is to drop the shovel. And that's

298
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: kind of what the Ravens did today. Pretty sure. They

299
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: mentioned that the Ravens get the Dolphins this Thursday. So

300
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: let's take a look at the Ravens schedule. They get

301
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: the Dolphins Thursday night, then they get the Vikings, who

302
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: do not have a quarterback. Then they get the Browns,

303
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: who also do not have a quarterback. Then they get

304
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: the Jets, who again needed a miracle to come back

305
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: against the Bengals. Then they get the Bengals. I thought

306
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: the Ravens were dead, but once the way it played

307
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: out today, like I don't trust the Bengals because I mean,

308
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: their defense just sucks and the Steelers just have issues.

309
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: So massive win by the Packers, very very impressive performance

310
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: by Jordan Love and Matt Lafleur. And listen, you go

311
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: in at halftime like players and coaches they love saying

312
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: like there's no such thing as halftime adjustments, which is

313
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: true because you're constantly adjusting every time you come to

314
00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: the sideline, but there is like everyone, take a deep breath.

315
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: We kind of re message, we kind of get a

316
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: reorganized viewpoint of where we want to attack. And clearly,

317
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: what was ever said, what was ever tweaked coming out

318
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: of the locker room worked because that Packer team looked

319
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: like the team that most people after a couple of

320
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: weeks that could win the Super Bowl, and we hadn't

321
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: seen it for a while. And Lafleur, the coaching staff,

322
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: they deserve a lot of credit. And if you're Mike Tomlin.

323
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: Feels like we're spinning the wheels again, kind of starting

324
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: to feel like it's felt the last couple of years

325
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: does have the inevitable nine to ten wins, one and

326
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: done and then it's like, oh yeah, just browl it

327
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: back again. We'll just keep paying you. I mean, James

328
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: Franklin got got cammed, Brian Kelly got canned. We're seeing

329
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: and listen, I'm not acting like Mike Tomlin's resume isn't

330
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: better than those guys, but like, what was James Franklin's problem?

331
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: Could never beat anyone good? Now it feels like Mike Tomlin,

332
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: like if we go a decade with him never winning

333
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: a playoff game and just getting the nine wins, like

334
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: that's no longer an accomplishment anymore. It's impressive relative to

335
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: a lot of bad coaches, but it's like, what's your ceiling?

336
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: We know what your floors. Your floor's good, but are

337
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: we going nowhere? Because if you're just going nowhere, I

338
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: don't quite understand the point of this anymore. And it

339
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: feels like we're headed toward that moment in January again

340
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 1: when it's just like they lose in the first round

341
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 1: of the Bills or the Chiefs or the Colts by

342
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: like fourteen points and we just go or here again,

343
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: what are they gonna do? Today's show is brought to

344
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: you by our new presenting sponsor, hard Rock Bet. Week

345
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: eight caps off with the Commanders headed to Arrowhead and

346
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: taking on the Chiefs. Here's what I did. I like

347
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: the Chiefs big, obviously, the Commanders rolling out their backup quarterback.

348
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: To me, the Chiefs. Eleven and a half is a

349
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: lot of points, but I can see the Chiefs winning

350
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: this game by twenty plus. So I'm taking Kansas City. Yeah.

351
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 1: I put together a little parlay Kansas City minus eleven

352
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: and a half and I'm gonna go with Pachaco and

353
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown to score a touchdown. Little parlay action about

354
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: fourteen to one. So building a little parlay with the

355
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 1: Chiefs Big, Hollywood Brown and Pachaco to score. If you

356
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: want to get really aggressive, maybe a Patrick Mahomes anytime

357
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: touchdown as well. And That's what I'm doing. So if

374
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: Speaking of a team that's here again, A lot of

375
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: people think I hate the Falcons. I don't know any

376
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 1: of these people like, I have nothing personally against them.

377
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: I truly don't even care. I just had to take

378
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, like I just don't see

379
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: it with this organization and their owner. I remember last

380
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: year put himself in the Hall of Fame. Was kind

381
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 1: of funny, but also was kind of an indictment of

382
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: like what's going on here? Like this feels a little

383
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: out of whack, you know. Then they hired Raheem Morris,

384
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: who immediately came in and listen, I didn't make this

385
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: story up. He did. He was asked, why do you

386
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: have so many coaches on your staff? He had twenty six,

387
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 1: which I'm pretty sure was a record in the NFL,

388
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: and he said, because I plan on training guys so

389
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: when we win and lose our coordinators and lose our

390
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 1: position coaches to become coordinators in other places, we have

391
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 1: the replacements already on staff and we don't need to

392
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: train from scratch. And he even admitted, like that's a

393
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: pretty arrogant thing to say, but I believe in what

394
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: we're doing and we're gonna win. Well, last year they

395
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: didn't win, they didn't make the playoffs. This year they're

396
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: three and four and I looked up today it was

397
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and they're playing the Miami Dolphins, who

398
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: is the laughingstock of the NFL. There is nobody who

399
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: is getting consistently made fun of more than Mike McDaniel

400
00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 1: and his franchise. And he was up thirty one to three.

401
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: Nigo John. They didn't have their starting quarterback. I said,

402
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: I know they had their backup. Who is the highest

403
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 1: paid backup. I'm not talking about a starter that got

404
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: bench during the season. I'm talking about a guy going

405
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: into the season that was the number two quarterback. He's

406
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: making almost thirty million dollars and we've seen all around

407
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: the league. The forty nine ers won four games with

408
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: Mac Jones. Like, listen, I win or lose the game,

409
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,360
Speaker 1: but you should be able to compete with the guy

410
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: that you're paying twenty seven point five million dollars. Not

411
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: only could they not compete, they got steamrolled. And it

412
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: does feel a little bit starting with Rich McKay with

413
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,199
Speaker 1: the GM, with Raheem, with this whole operation, they have

414
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: just taken a bunch of money with all these coaches,

415
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: with this Kirk Cousins contract, which is gonna go down

416
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,239
Speaker 1: as one of the worst ones of all time. I

417
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: like Michael Pennix, but there weren't many people that agreed

418
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: with them, thinking he was a top ten pick. I

419
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: was actually more inclined to agree with them, but it

420
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: clearly has not worked. Everything they have done has been

421
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: a complete disaster. I don't see it. The owner's mid eighties.

422
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: How everyone in their entire job and you talk about

423
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,479
Speaker 1: a place that just needs to get the light, you know,

424
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 1: flipped and the whole place just blown up. I would

425
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: say Atlanta and everyone involved in that situation, from the

426
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,479
Speaker 1: GM to the coaching staff is in major, major trouble

427
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: because lose to Kyle Shanahan Sunday Night football on the road,

428
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: like a lot of people have had a similar fate.

429
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 1: Lose a home to Tua in the Miami Dolphins with

430
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: the backup quarterback that you're paying thirty one or I

431
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: mean twenty seven point five million dollars too, was really

432
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: a sight to behold. I'm trying to look see if

433
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: I can find the box score here because I wanted

434
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: to see. I think I just gippeded Toua's final numbers,

435
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 1: which Tua tongko I Looa, who got bench last week,

436
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: who had sounded like Mike, who has been pretty optimistic,

437
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: had almost given up on with his press conference earlier

438
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: in the week, had six incompletions and four touchdowns. I

439
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: just I think that's the most embarrassing outcome in recent memory.

440
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: To be down thirty one to three to the Miami

441
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 1: Dolphins thirty one to three and have two or throw

442
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 1: four touchdowns on you to four different guys. That's crazy.

443
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: Speaking of crazy, for a split second, I looked down

444
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: and then I looked back up and I saw Jackson

445
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: Dart freaking out, and you knew it wasn't good. So

446
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: I immediately tax the group tax I'm like, who was that?

447
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: And they're like, Cam, I couldn't watch. I would imagine

448
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: it had a similar vibe to Fred Warner ankle point

449
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 1: in the wrong way. I think Skataboo's already gotten surgery tonight.

450
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: That's a devastating blow. And I've been pretty consistent. I'm like, hey,

451
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 1: they got a lot of positive momentum even in this game.

452
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: Skataboo scores in early touchdowns like seven to seven, then

453
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: it's fourteen to seven, but you're like, god, the I

454
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: don't know if the Giants are gonna cover or not,

455
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: but I just it just felt like they were just

456
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: kind of being frisky today and just a lot of

457
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: momentum even My wife calls them the frat boys. Like

458
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: the frat boys. She's like, yeah, the Scataboo in the quarterback.

459
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: They just got something cool going on. The Eagles gave Scataboo.

460
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 2: The fucking Philadelphia Eagles fans seventy thousand gave him a

461
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 2: standing ovation when he got carted off. Cause there's not

462
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 2: a human alive that likes football that doesn't like watching

463
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 2: a running back lower his head every single time and

464
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 2: try to run people over.

465
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: It's like universally respected. I've said this before. I got

466
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: asked all the time over the last eight months, had

467
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: think Campbell do in the NFL? How do you think

468
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: camp will do in the NFL? Every single person I

469
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: know around here that's a big ASU fan, number one

470
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: thing they ask, and I was kind of wrong. I'm like,

471
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: I just don't know if you can run people over

472
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And not only was he running people

473
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: over in the NFL, he just looked like a good player.

474
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 1: It was like him and dark even without neighbors, like listen,

475
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: this is a this is a consumable team. And the

476
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: moment his ankle pointed the other way and he got

477
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: card off, yeah, I mean, it just felt like, listen,

478
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: it's not like they were gonna make the playoffs anyway,

479
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: or even probably win like eight games, but they were

480
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: a watchable team. They were a team that just had

481
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: something going for him. It felt like it all ended

482
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: and you felt as the game was going and day

483
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: Ball is losing, as you know what on the sideline,

484
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: He's no dummy. He knows it too. I've been adamant

485
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 1: I would just give day Ball an extra year and

486
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: just kind of let this play out with Scataboo, let

487
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: neighbors come back. The problem is this thing now that

488
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: you're losing him the momentum, it's going to get so ugly,

489
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: so ugly that you're just gonna look up and it's

490
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: a four or five win team and it's gonna feel

491
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: just like a disaster all season long. So I that

492
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: was a devastating blow for the job security of the

493
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: GM and the head coach. I mean it really was.

494
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 1: And this is I've said this forever when whenever someone

495
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: asked like do you do you miss it? Do you ever?

496
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: Would you ever do it again? Do you ever wish?

497
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: When I've been a podcaster now for almost a decade,

498
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: I feel very fortunate that not only I was born

499
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: to do what I'm doing right now. But the thing

500
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: that I could never get over, well, I was in it.

501
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: And the thing that still kind of gives me the

502
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: hebgb's when I think about it, was if you're working

503
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: for a team, coach, GM, front office, owner, whoever associate

504
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: with the team, would someone gets injured. Like in most

505
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: of our industries, obviously, there are things that are out

506
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 1: of our control. Right if a law has passed that

507
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: impacts our business, if someone were in business with cancels

508
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: a contract or something, I mean, listen, things, I don't

509
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 1: care what you do, you could have unforeseen circumstances. There

510
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: is nothing like in the sport of football, just knowing, yeah,

511
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: more than likely we're just gonna lose a player a game.

512
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: Go to training camp, yeah more than likely we're gonn

513
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: to lose three or four people to major injuries during practice.

514
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 1: And it's just part of the business. But it's something

515
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,959
Speaker 1: that's still like I can't imagine being day ball Brian

516
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: Joe Shane, the ownership, the fans, that feeling of just

517
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: watching someone there and knowing he's screwed his literally, his

518
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 1: foot is pointing the other way, his season is over.

519
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 1: If anything, we just cross our fingers knock on wood

520
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: that he's completely fine next year, but you just never know.

521
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I've seen what Fred Warner, you see with Scattaboy.

522
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: I hope. I love those two guys, But like, I

523
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: don't care how much progress we've made in modern medicine,

524
00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: there are still just human ligament like elements to people's

525
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: bodies that some things aren't as fixable as others, and

526
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: it just really really sucks. And I just can't imagine,

527
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: Like I don't know how if you're Joe Shane or

528
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: Brian Dabole you even sleep at night tonight. And I

529
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: would imagine they don't really because they realize, like they

530
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: probably were feeling pretty good, like, hey, we've got some momentum.

531
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: Probably even if we just get like a fake extension,

532
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: we'll get another year. I think that dramatically changes it

533
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: because I think it'll just feel so much uglier. And

534
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: you know Bill Poleon's famous line of like you listen

535
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: to the to the fans, you'll be sitting with them.

536
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: The reality is the fans now have more juice than

537
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: they've ever had because it's the noise is so loud,

538
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: it's impossible to not hear it, even justin fields who listen.

539
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: He's not a good player. But I've said this since

540
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: watching him in Chicago, the way Poles handle that situation

541
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: last year getting bench for Russell Wilson, who just stinks.

542
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: I'd rather have some fields running around than watch Russell

543
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,959
Speaker 1: Wilson play. But even he said he found himself this

544
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: week in a closet crying, and he wasn't trying to

545
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: throw a pity party. If you go watch his press conference,

546
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: it was actually pretty moving. And I just think as

547
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: being a human being, like you see the owner say

548
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: that about you, even if you're speaking some truth, but

549
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: it just feels like your whole professional career, your whole

550
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: credibility as an athlete, is just crumbling. And this is

551
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: what I give these guys a lot of credit for.

552
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: You just got to keep your head up and you

553
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: just got to keep pounding, which is easy to say,

554
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: but it's much harder to execute in real life. Like, yeah,

555
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: just keep just keep swinging. And I'm a big believer

556
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: in that. Just keep swinging. Sometimes it's easier than others,

557
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: but you gotta like put another foot forward and just

558
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: keep moving forward. And I'll give him credit, like he's

559
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: he's pretty mentally tough. Now, obviously the Bengals who were

560
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: just troushing on defense, honestly was even paying close attention

561
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: to the game because I thought the Bengals were blowing

562
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: them out. It was like, the Bengals are about to

563
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: be four and four. They got a bunch of just

564
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: positive momentum going with their offense, scoring a bunch of points.

565
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, they go for two and

566
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: they get the ball back and they score again. You're like, oh,

567
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna lose, and they did so. Uh props to

568
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: Justin Fields for just keeping his head high. Uh what

569
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: else is going on watching the Colts and the Titans.

570
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: One Jonathan Taylor is having just two years ago, it

571
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: was McCaffrey. Last year, it was Saquon. This year is

572
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, who just looks like the best offensive player

573
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: in football, who's just an unstoppable force. Now, they did

574
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: show a highlight during the Nance Romo game and they

575
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: came back and Nance had a comment like, uh yeah,

576
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: pretty pathetic effort there by the defense. And you know,

577
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: Jim Nantz is not This isn't Sean McDonough. He's not

578
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: slinging a bunch of takes, Like if you watch Sean

579
00:31:56,320 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: McDonough call a game, he has a fucking take on everything, Like, hey, bro,

580
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: you're not the analyst. I don't need your take on

581
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: every situation. But I think he views himself as like

582
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: a play by play guy slash podcaster. That is not

583
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: Jim Nantz's thing. He'll add his opinion every once in

584
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: a while, but he's old school broadcaster. Jonathan Taylor's big

585
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: run and he came back basically saying they quit. I

586
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: don't think he's wrong. The Titans not only have quit,

587
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: they are terrible. I mean they are an atrocious football team,

588
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: which the Indianapolis Colts blew him out. I don't even

589
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: know what the final score is. It was a lot

590
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: too little. One thing that kind of went viral yesterday

591
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: was that Steve Sarkisian would not only be interested in

592
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: going to the pros, like he'd be interested in the

593
00:32:55,720 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: Titans job. And I don't know Diana seeing me that well,

594
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: we've DMed a couple of times, asked her to come

595
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: on the show, probably like six months ago. I like her.

596
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: I know people that know her that like her. I

597
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: don't think look, she gets real information. But I also thought,

598
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: like middle end of October, he still got SIXCEP, you know,

599
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: five games left because he hadn't played. The miss stated,

600
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if he'd put this out there yet,

601
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: so I was like, I think the timing was a

602
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: little off. He came out after they pulled out a

603
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: game out of you know what I mean. They had

604
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: no business. They were down seventeen points to the fourth quarter,

605
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: end up winning in overtime. Arch statistically played his best

606
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: game of the season. He got a concussion. Sark was pissed,

607
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Sex didn't and Ed Manowitz, who I used

608
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: to work with in Philly, was now Jimmy Sex's right

609
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: hand man and represents Sark and Lane and Billy Napier

610
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: and all these guys. They put out a statement yesterday

611
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 1: basically saying like this is bullshit, which Sarkat said is unprecedented.

612
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy Sex, that Sexton is rumor king. He wants the

613
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: rumors out there. But clearly they didn't put this one

614
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: out because he never would have posted that. But Steve

615
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 1: Sarkisian is not leaving Texas where he makes like eleven

616
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: million dollars and as a coaching staff, especially teams coach

617
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: is making a million, his coordinators are making two or three,

618
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: probably beside Ohio State, the highest paid coaching staff in America,

619
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 1: and from a roster standpoint, probably one of the highest

620
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: paid rosters. The University of Texas in twenty twenty five

621
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: is a much better job than the Tennessee Titans, not

622
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 1: even close. Tennessee doesn't have that much talent. I like

623
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: cam Ward of Miami, but it's hard to totally judge

624
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: him in this situation. You couldn't feel confident taking that job.

625
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: Like cam Ward's a player. You also know when you

626
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 1: work in a school, the ad the presidents of Boosters, like,

627
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 1: obviously you're dealing with a lot of different people, But

628
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: how's that in different than the Titans. They have a

629
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: football guy from Packers, Chad Brinker, who's now the president.

630
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 1: They have a GM from the Chiefs who's now the GM.

631
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: And they got an owner who doesn't even live in

632
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: Tennessee who is very active and very emotional and always

633
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: telling you to fire people. It is a pretty jumbled up,

634
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: fucked up situation. So I'm not trying to dispute that

635
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: Sark has no interest ever in moving to the NFL

636
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: even after this season, because there is a chance. It

637
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: also crossed my mind that if you're sark, you're like,

638
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the guy to have to

639
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: tell the Manning family their nephew, their son is not

640
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,280
Speaker 1: welcome back at the program. He's not gonna get started anymore.

641
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: That would be a tough situation. I don't want to

642
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: be that guy, so instead I'll just jump ship, which

643
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,720
Speaker 1: is what crossed my mind. But then when he refuted

644
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 1: it like that, I thought he's been in the final

645
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 1: four of the last two years. Program is having a

646
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: quote unquote down year. There's probably still gonna win nine games.

647
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: They'll be fine, big pick. Sure he's gonna go to

648
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: the Titans. I love Nashville, got married there. I love

649
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: that city. The NFL team right now is a choke.

650
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: I think Eddie George, I don't even know where he's coaching,

651
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: put out a statement or someone ask him. In an interview,

652
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: he said, the last couple of years of firing all

653
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: these people have set back the organization a decade. Like

654
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: we make fun of a lot of different places, Miami included.

655
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: Titans are bad man, and they got a lot going on.

656
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 1: So he's coaching at Bowling Green. I just think I

657
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: can't imagine there'd be a lot of people. Brian Callahan

658
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: was making three million dollars a year three. That's like

659
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,919
Speaker 1: what Sark's offensive coordinator makes. Sark calls the place too,

660
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: but he like, what are we talking about? This is

661
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: the Titans? Are they pay nothing? Ask Mike Vrabel if

662
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: he's happy that he's gone. So that part of that

663
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,399
Speaker 1: report was like, Sark is not taking the Titans job.

664
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 1: Sark might be interested in, like the Eagles job. Start

665
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 1: could be interested in, like the Packers job. He's not

666
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: leaving Texas for the Tennessee Titans. Pats and Bills. I

667
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: think we got a pretty interesting little like I would

668
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: have felt pretty confident started the season that Bills were

669
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 1: the biggest lock in America to win that division. I

670
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: don't know. Pat's schedule sucks. The Bills still got to

671
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:28,439
Speaker 1: play the Chiefs this upcoming a week. This is why

672
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: you pay a lot for a head coach. I said

673
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: this forever with the Chargers, I'm like, just pay for

674
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 1: a real guy. Open up your checkbook. Now. That's the

675
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 1: thing with this offseason, It's like, who are those guys

676
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: like it doesn't really feel like there's a Vrabel, But

677
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 1: when you have the opportunity and you have a bad coach,

678
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,400
Speaker 1: go get that guy because it immediately changes his franchise.

679
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: The Pats were one of the worst teams we've ever

680
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: seen last year. They were atrocious, and now they're just

681
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: gonna win thirteen games. They went from that bad to

682
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,440
Speaker 1: like twelve or thirteen wins. And listen, their schedule is

683
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: conducive to some extra wins. Even if they were playing

684
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: a hard schedule, they probably win ten all because they

685
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: have a legit vision and a CEO head coach that

686
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: knows what he's doing. Tilet's diving in the Brian Kelly situation.

687
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: I watched that game last night and I put this

688
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 1: out on the Everything app as a you know, twenty

689
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: milligram gummy Deep just slamming my Stanley in some popcorn

690
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: when LSU when they came out in the second half,

691
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,839
Speaker 1: and A and M just bludgeon them and went from

692
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: down a couple points to up double digits within twenty

693
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 1: minutes of real time. He went, this is over, Like

694
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: there are things anyone who's listening to this that's had

695
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: a bad breakup that's been divorced. There are things that

696
00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: get said in a personal relationship, especially with a significant

697
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 1: we're human beings, we argue, but there are lines that

698
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: if they're crossed, there's no coming back from. And anyone

699
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: that's ever been in a relationship that when something gets said, like,

700
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: there's no crossing back over those words. And I felt

701
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 1: like that third quarter of the Brian Kellyerra who was

702
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: like the divorce is on, Like it's just over. There's

703
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: no one in the program. There's not there's no players,

704
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: there's no coaches on the staff, and most importantly, there's

705
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: no the booster slash the fans that can ever look

706
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: at this man and take him seriously. And there were

707
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: a couple videos that went viral of him screaming at

708
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: his assistant coaches. One he screamed at a special teams

709
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: coach basically for kicking it to the star punt returner

710
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: slash wide receiver for the A and M he took

711
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: in the house and he said if essentially like if

712
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: you do that again, you will lose your job, or

713
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: punting it to him will cause you to get fired

714
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: or something like that. That and he also screamed at

715
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator who, like I think, at the end

716
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: of the first half, through a ball in the flat

717
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: when they didn't have any timeouts, he got tackled. It's like, Brian,

718
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: you're the CEO head coach, so you're not a play caller.

719
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: You're the CEO. So every time something comes through the headset,

720
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: a play call on offense, you know what you can do.

721
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 1: I don't like that. Let's do something else that doesn't

722
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: make sense here because of this situation. Or you know,

723
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: when you're on the headset and they're about to punt

724
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: and you hear, hey, whatever the punt call is, we

725
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: cannot punt it to this guy, or I don't know,

726
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 1: before punt runs out there, you look at the special

727
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: teams coordinator and you fucking tell him kick the ball

728
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: out of bounds. You are the boss. There is no

729
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,839
Speaker 1: one on that sideline above you. So what I hear, like,

730
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: you know he made some bad hires. He's the head

731
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 1: coach and the CEO head coaches this are screaming at

732
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: coordinators for awful play calls. Do you know what they're

733
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 1: allowed to do? Say, don't do that. I don't need

734
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: you to make the play call, but you should know

735
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: the playbook and say that doesn't make sense here, and

736
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,800
Speaker 1: you could say, John, that's just micromanaging. I'm not saying

737
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: do it every single play, but in big critical situations

738
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: if you hear something, especially like punning it to a

739
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: explosive player, going this doesn't make sense, I don't want

740
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: us to do this, and you know what, that special

741
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 1: teams coach says, no problem, coach, we won't do that.

742
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: But instead he just starts screaming at people. And you

743
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: could tell last night as it was unraveling and he

744
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 1: was just screaming at people like he's just lost. He

745
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: doesn't know what to do. Because at the end of

746
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: the day, you know what, turns out he's not any

747
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: of that. He's actually not some critical schematic genius. I'm

748
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: not saying I ever thought he was, but whatever his

749
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: version is, at sixty three sixty four years old, he's

750
00:41:56,560 --> 00:42:00,760
Speaker 1: just completely the overseer. You watch highlights of Nick Saban

751
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: at practice up until he retired with the DBS, with

752
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:11,120
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinators, making calls, telling assignments based on certain coverages.

753
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: That defense was Nick Sabin's baby, and offensively, when he

754
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: wanted something, he told the coordinators run the ball here.

755
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: Part of his bull ups with Lane is because he

756
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 1: told him to run it and laying gull passes, but

757
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: he didn't wait till after the play called to scream

758
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 1: at him. I just don't know what Brian Kelly was doing.

759
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what he was doing. He was

760
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: a guy that actually was just kind of cashing it in.

761
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: And we've all known people that have done this, people

762
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: that are over their job. And some of those people

763
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 1: might make twenty dollars an hour, some around America make

764
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: six figures. Some of them we talked about this. I

765
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 1: remember when I first got hired at Frozen State, one

766
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: of Pat Hill's big messages to the team was, don't

767
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 1: be a union worker. Don't just clock in and clock out,

768
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,839
Speaker 1: because when that becomes your mentality, when you just are

769
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: at work, you're not even that in tune to it

770
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: in the first place. Take ownership of your role, whatever

771
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: that is. If you're a starting linebacker, if you're a

772
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,359
Speaker 1: special teams guy, if you're a backup trying to become

773
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: a starter. And you watch Brian Kelly and he just

774
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: went did he just take this job because of money?

775
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: Did he truly take this job because he thought he

776
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 1: had to take it to win a national championship. Did

777
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: he take it because he was just kind of bored

778
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: of Notre Dame because his fit in the South obviously

779
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: did not work, which really really matters. And at the

780
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: end of the day, his teams were just not that good.

781
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 1: I mean, say what you want, his teams at Notre

782
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 1: Dame looked a lot better than his teams at LSU

783
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: that now he looked destined to win. I think he

784
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 1: went eight and four last year looking he was going

785
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: to go eight and four again. Even two years ago

786
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: when he had Jaden Daniels, Brian Thomas and Malik Neighbors,

787
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: he went nine to three. It didn't even feel like

788
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,760
Speaker 1: he was close to the upper tier in the SEC.

789
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: But what got him fired, like what got James Franklin fired,

790
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 1: is when he started losing new teams. And James was

791
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 1: worse because he was losing to Northwestern in UCLA. But like,

792
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: they can't take Brian Kelly seriously when Vanderbilt, Ole, Miss

793
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,360
Speaker 1: and Texts, A and M have all passed you Now,

794
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: I also think there's this element of, you know, between

795
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly and James Franklin. They paid the two combined

796
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: over one hundred million dollars to pay them to go away.

797
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,280
Speaker 1: And one time in my life when I got fired

798
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: from radio, I think I had three months left on

799
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,800
Speaker 1: my contract and I don't know I made eighty grand

800
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 1: but whatever they had to pay me, I forget whatever

801
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,320
Speaker 1: the number was, but it was I don't know, fifteen

802
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, and I remember thinking, like, God, is pretty cool.

803
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna get paid for three months to not

804
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: work and listen, I'm pretty ambitious guy. I like to work.

805
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 1: But I just remember that feeling of like, God, this,

806
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: I got a couple months to just figure things out,

807
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 1: which at that time that was a lot of money

808
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: to me. I mean, it was really impactful, you know,

809
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: I can't even fathom. And Brian Kelly's been making millions

810
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: of dollars for fifteen plus years, right since he's been

811
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 1: at Notre Dame. I've been a starting salary. If we

812
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 1: look back at two thousand and whatever year, that would

813
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,280
Speaker 1: have been nine or ten, four or five million dollars,

814
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: and then he's been making seven, eight, ten million dollars

815
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: for the last decade, so he is filthy rich. But

816
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: he also felt like a guy who's kind of lost

817
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 1: his fastball, and at the end of the day, Nick

818
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: Saban retired not because he lost his fastball, but he's like,

819
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: I don't quite at the energy to keep changing with

820
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,760
Speaker 1: this changing landscape. Never forget he was going to Totoe

821
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: with Jim Harball and an absolutely loaded Michigan team the

822
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 1: year he retired, probably should have won that game, took

823
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: a J. J. McCarthy's greatest drive of his career, or

824
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 1: Nick Saban would have been the championship game, and who knows,

825
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 1: maybe he still ends up retiring after that year winner

826
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: lose that game. But you watch Brian Kelly and it

827
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: just looked like a guy who knew he didn't fit,

828
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: who took a job that wasn't the right job for him,

829
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: and was making so much money. I mean, he signed

830
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: like an NBA contract, you just ride it out till

831
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 1: they fire me, And that's exactly what they did. They

832
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,399
Speaker 1: fired him. And some of these coaches come out and

833
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: Saban did this with James Franklin. They make it like

834
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 1: this victim pity party, like he really got screws. Like Nick,

835
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,760
Speaker 1: you would have fired every fucking person in your path

836
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 1: if they would have lost the games that James lost

837
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: over the years against the real opponents, you would have

838
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: wanted to kill people. So James didn't get fired overnight.

839
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 1: He got fired after a decade of losing to all

840
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: the good teams. Brian Kelly got fired because he couldn't

841
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: beat the decent teams, let alone the good ones. And

842
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 1: once you're an outsider, you're done. And now I think

843
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 1: the question mark is we're really gonna learn this offseason

844
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 1: about nil, this money job market, because historically people would

845
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: be lined up for LSU and Florida lined up in

846
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: this version of Penn State as well. But you just

847
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: saw Kurt Signetti, who my guy Tim Skipper that they

848
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 1: had them come back to Earth a little bit, beat

849
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:37,760
Speaker 1: him like one hundred to nothing. Indiana looks fantastic. Vanderbilt

850
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: just one another. There's a decent chance of Vanderbilt beats Texas.

851
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: They're gonna be in the playoffs, oh miss, more than

852
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 1: like gonna be in the playoffs. Indiana gonna be in

853
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: the playoff for back to back years. So historically you

854
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: had to go to Florida, you had to go to

855
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 1: LSU to be in the playoffs. In this NIL era,

856
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: I don't know, like in the NFL. You got a

857
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: pretty good idea, like Titan's job, not a great one,

858
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,879
Speaker 1: wouldn't touch it. Packer's job comes open interest. Steeler's job

859
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 1: comes open interest. John Schneider has an opening. Mike McDonald

860
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 1: smart move. I'd go work for him too, Lsu. Historically

861
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 1: an elite job is as good of a job anymore.

862
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 1: I don't know, is just Brian Kelly mailed it in sucks.

863
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 1: You know, if you're them, you go all in for

864
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin? Do you know what shows you is a

865
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:37,919
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, these teams never would have talked

866
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,440
Speaker 1: to Lane. I don't want to say he was toxic,

867
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: because his life was I would say on the right

868
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 1: path in the sense of like he had become a

869
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 1: head coach, he had had some success, but I think

870
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: there were still a lot of red flags around him

871
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: for the way things ended at Alabama. Some of the

872
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 1: stuff that people had heard was going on in Florida.

873
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 1: That feels like it's all going on now. He's cleaned

874
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 1: up his life. Families plays a huge role in his life.

875
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 1: They've all moved back out obviously physically, Like it's one

876
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 1: thing to say you quit drinking. Just look at him

877
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 1: he looks like a guy that quit drinking. You can

878
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: see it in his face and just the way he

879
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 1: carries himself, the way he talks, like what he's doing

880
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 1: at all, Miss. I think there's gonna be a bidding

881
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 1: war between these two schools. Now, you could also argue

882
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: if whoever loses out, like there are other really good coaches,

883
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,319
Speaker 1: but with the amount of money on the line now,

884
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like people want to take, you know, chances, right,

885
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,800
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be hard for some of these lower

886
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,479
Speaker 1: tier guys. If I was LSU Florida, I would only

887
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: hire people from the Power four. I would only hire

888
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 1: someone who's had like a real job. And I'm not

889
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,800
Speaker 1: saying like two Lane or some of these aren't real jobs,

890
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 1: but they can't relate to playing in these powerful conferences

891
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 1: and the pressure that comes along with it at the

892
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: end of the day. Like, is Matt Rule a huge

893
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,840
Speaker 1: upgrade over James Franklin. Probably not, But like if I

894
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 1: hire one of those guys, they could flame out. Like

895
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: worst case scenario, Matt Rule just gets me eight nine,

896
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 1: ten wins, right, So I understand the logic if that's

897
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: like your best case scenario or Matt Campbell. But you

898
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 1: take some of these smaller school guys, it could work.

899
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: It also could be a disaster because there is no

900
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,799
Speaker 1: training ground for what they're dealing with and what we

901
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 1: deal with. And at LSU and Florida, it's basically like

902
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: taking over the Philadelphia Eagles. It's basically taking over the

903
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. I mean, is an intense pressure cooker with

904
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: the SEC Games at night are the best product football

905
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,360
Speaker 1: has to offer. There is nothing better just in terms

906
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: of television product than Alabama, LSU, Georgia A, and M

907
00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:00,400
Speaker 1: these schools at night under the Auburn under Tennis. See

908
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 1: it is an elite viewing experience from the couch. And

909
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,839
Speaker 1: obviously I've never been to one of these games live.

910
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine what it's like live in that place.

911
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 1: In the first half, when there were some turnovers and

912
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,240
Speaker 1: LSU looked like they had a chance, I was like, damn,

913
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:17,640
