Speaker 3: just wait till dad steps up. And then we've got

19
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 3: this like you're bracing for your moment, you know exactly

20
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 3: how it's supposed to go, and then you see a

21
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,120

24
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: And this way you don't have to do it because.

25
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 5: You know you're going to fail. Yes things yourself.

26
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: By the way, you know those games are those games

27
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: are rigged for you not to win. Field like Tom

28
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: Brady could step up there and never get the football

29
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: through the tire.

30
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: You know that. Right of course, they opened up they

31
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: opened up something in Connecticut.

32
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 5: The flight gate joke.

33
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: Hey, they opened up something kind of near where I

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,800

Speaker 3: been like fifty and wet for like a week straight

37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 3: here in Connecticut. I've been to a place and spent

38
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 3: more money on credits just so my kids could go

39
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 3: and drop the crane to try to get to one

40
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: of the prizes. Right yes to yes, they're oh for

41
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 3: about one hundred and twenty dollars worth their credits in

42
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 3: the last four trips there. So congratulations to the person

43
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: who created that demonus invention. What's the prize? It's you know,

44
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 3: it's like you can grab like a stuffed animal, you

45
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: can grab a rubber duck.

46
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 5: You know, well, there's one.

47
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: It look like in the middle of all these crappy prizes,

48
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: there is one very valuable prize that no one is

49
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: ever going to get, right of.

50
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: Course, yeah, they claim there's like a key that unlocks something.

51
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 3: We don't actually a lot, but yeah, god damn her

52
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: iPhones right in the thing, right, Yeah, the newest iPhone,

53
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 3: the iPhone's seventeen, is still available with one very lucky grab.

54
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 5: Listen, Taylor's going to be fine.

55
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: I will just tell you this that Gola comes in

56
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: and does the Goblets football.

57
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 5: Open with us.

58
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: He always throws it to Tailor, and it makes Taylor's

59
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: fucking weak. It does like this is it's gonna crush

60
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: his soul for at least well until Gold comes on tomorrow.

61
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 3: Okay, kid, all right, all right, so at least I

62
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: have a chance for a quick Taylor has a chance

63
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: for a quick emotional turn around there. Yeah, and I'm

64
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 3: already dealing with the Bill Belichick stuff, so I was like,

65
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: I just didn't need it. All right, Well, I'm gonna

66
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 3: throw something your well, I don't know what it is.

67
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 3: I'm gonna buy something Carolina blue and just ship it

68
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: to you. Somehow. I don't know what it is, but

69
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: we'll figure it out.

70
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: Yes, before we started taping, you asked Taylor Belichick was

71
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: gonna be back as the Carolina head coach next year.

72
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: That's a question he should be asking you field.

73
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't have any insight there, you know. I

74
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 3: just anytime that we're week seven of the college football

75
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: season and you know there's reports, it just you know,

76
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 3: it's I would have never guessed it would have gone

77
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 3: down how it has so far at North Carolina. So

78
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: hopeful if things get turned around, football is better with

79
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick coaching it. And I've seen I've become more

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 3: acutely aware of all the dynamics involved with this program now.

81
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: So I have seen and Taylor, we're trying to be

82
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: positive and bounced back here. I have seen strong recruiting

83
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: class coming in next year.

84
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: I saw Bill Belichick had his weekly uh pregame press

85
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 2: conference last yesterday and one of the quotes that he

86
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: had that's going around is this team is a lot

87
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: better than they were in the spring. So now people

88
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 2: are starting to question how bad were.

89
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 3: I'm keeping optimism here. I like to live my life

90
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 3: that way, and I think there's a chance for turnaround.

91
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 3: Just might take a little time. Take a little time here, Field.

92
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: Earlier today he offered to drive Bill Belichick to Tennessee to.

93
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 5: Be the Titans next head coach. Ian he offered to

94
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 5: make the drive.

95
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 3: Wow yeah, wow, Taylor desperate times man.

96
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 4: An awkward drive too, Yeah yeah, oh.

97
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: Man Field, We'll get to the Titans head coach. We

98
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: spent way too much of the Titans head coach so far.

99
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: A second, Here's the beauty of the NFL. We have

100
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: some fantasy questions as well, But here's the beauty of

101
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: the NFL that if I asked you last week, you

102
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: would probably give me a different team than you're gonna

103
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: give me right now.

104
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 5: Who is the best team in the NFL?

105
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: Right now? Field, Yates, that's such a I was. So,

106
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: the Buccaneers and the Colts are the two teams that

107
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 3: stand at five and one. There's a case for Indianapolis.

108
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 3: I would say that, like start to finish in most

109
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 3: of their games, Indianapolis has been the most convincing to me.

110
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 3: They lose the game against the Rams, they probably should

111
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 3: have won. There was the eighty Mitchell fumble into the

112
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 3: end zone which resulted in a Rams touchback on that

113
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 3: quirky rule. But there's the trust factor, right is that?

114
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 3: Like if you told me it's January twentieth, whether the

115
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 3: game is being played in Indianapolis or Kansas City, who

116
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 3: are you picking the Chiefs based off what we know

117
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: or the Colts based off what we know? It's the Chiefs.

118
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna give the Colts they're due for right now,

119
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: the Colts to me have been the most impressive team

120
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 3: start to finish, and if it's possible, the Colts have

121
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 3: been a little bit under discussed for a team that's

122
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 3: won five of its first six games.

123
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: Right now, if I asked you before this season, who's

124
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 1: the best team going to be six weeks seven weeks

125
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: into the NFL season, there's no way you're saying the Colts.

126
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 3: Right, No, there's none, And I'll wear an egg on

127
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 3: my face. I think it's okay, by the way, when

128
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 3: you admit error in your analysis, as that tends to

129
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 3: happen people. But I thought when the Colts made the

130
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 3: decision to go with Daniel Jones over Anthony Richardson that

131
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 3: it was a floor play, as in, like, hey, we're

132
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 3: just trying to get seven or eight wins, maybe nine

133
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 3: if things break correctly, possibly backdoor into the AFC playoffs

134
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 3: and then get summarily dismissed by Buffalo or Kansas City

135
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: in the two to seven wild card game. I thought

136
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: that with Anthony Richardson, you need to see it through

137
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: and just prove to yourself that you have made as

138
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 3: much of a whiff and an error as I think

139
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: we all believe the Colts did and taking him fourth overall.

140
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones, what's the real value in just getting to

141
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 3: the middle in the NFL? There isn't much. In my opinion,

142
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 3: it was way wrong, way way off. Daniel Jones gives

143
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: them not just legitimate AFC South optimism, but I mean

144
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: I just said they are the best team through six

145
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 3: weeks of the NFL season, So I give a ton

146
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 3: of credit.

147
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 5: You know.

148
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 3: It's the roster has always felt better than the records

149
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 3: would indicate. Yeah, it's tough to continue to say, like, hey,

150
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: the GM's doing a really good job everywhere but quarterback

151
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: when the team just finds a way to fall a

152
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 3: little bit short of expectations. So I am sticking with

153
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 3: the Colts as as the best team right now, and

154
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have said that coming into the season, and

155
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 3: I give everybody involved the GM, Chris Ballard, the head coach,

156
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 3: Shane Stike, in the entire staff, and of course Daniel

157
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: Jones himself a ton of credit. Like they have proved

158
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 3: me amongst Benny naysayer is very very wrong.

159
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 4: Okay, I couldn't help, but notice that you didn't mention

160
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: the Buffalo bills in there where that.

161
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 5: Last weeks last week?

162
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 3: Right, two weeks ago for sure? Buffalo?

163
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: Right?

164
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 5: Yes?

165
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 4: Are they broken or are we just overreacting to a

166
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 4: bad week or two?

167
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, they definitely they have a vulnerability. That vulnerability is,

168
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 3: of course defending the run. Uh that was exposed last

169
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: night again Atlanta. Bijon was incredible. That eighty one yard

170
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 3: run felt way easier than most eighty one yards should feel. Right,

171
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 3: it was effortless. I think Buffalo will be just fine.

172
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 3: It's you know, it feels a little bit harder to

173
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 3: say that when you're in the eye of the storm.

174
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 3: Probably a well timed bye week, I would say on average,

175
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 3: teams would prefer for the bye week to be somewhere

176
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: in like that week, like nine to eleven range, just

177
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: because you've made it to basically the halfway point of

178
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 3: the season, or if you're a playoff team, you might

179
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 3: be at the halfway point of the full season, factoring

180
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 3: in the playoffs as well. So the Bills getting a

181
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 3: week seven buys a little bit earlier than probably you

182
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 3: like in a perfect world, But given the last two weeks,

183
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 3: this is a good opportunity for them to make a

184
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 3: decision when we're at the other are we going to

185
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: be serious about defending the run? They are really really

186
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: thin in terms of playmakers beyond their defensive line, linebacker corps,

187
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 3: and save secondary is just thin in general and just

188
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 3: not doing a lot of difference making so far. But

189
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 3: I do think they can cover up some of that

190
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 3: with a better pass rush as the defensive line continues

191
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: to get healthier. Uh. And then Josh Allen is not

192
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 3: going to struggle like he has, you know, certainly last

193
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 3: night and to a degree a couple of years ago,

194
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: right against the Patriots, he turned the football over what

195
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 3: once or twice? Definitely twice. There was the play where

196
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 3: Dawson Knox was given the end around, and that was

197
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 3: the fumbled exchange, plus at least and plus one interception.

198
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: I don't think Josh Allen's gonna play like he has

199
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,359
Speaker 3: the past couple of games. That's the most important.

200
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: Point to me, Mikey, that's the beauty of the NFL.

201
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: And that's really the point here. If he asked Field

202
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, we probably would have said or Buffalo

203
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: one of some point he would have said to Detroit.

204
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: And now we say, it's the Indianapolis. It's a mind

205
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: fucked this league, man, truly.

206
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 3: And by the way, the Colts like their one went

207
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 3: away from us, all saint frauds, you know, lost away

208
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 3: be like you know, like oh God forbid Jones, you know,

209
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 3: like Danny Dimes, the guy that, like, you know, just

210
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 3: when you think you know he's got it all figured out,

211
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: he reminds you he stealed Danny Dimes. But uh, it's

212
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: great entertainment, guys. We we wait, we wait all year,

213
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: all year for football. He's in a around, right, And

214
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 3: then we probably could save ourselves some embarrassment by not

215
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: doing things like who's the NFL's MVP four games into

216
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 3: the season, who's the best team six games into the season.

217
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 3: But we're gluttons. We are gluttons for egg on our face,

218
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: Like I mean, of course, we're going to have all

219
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 3: those conversations. We have seven days between games for a

220
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 3: lot of these teams. So Danny Dimes has my attention now,

221
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 3: and I will do my best to refrain from saying

222
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 3: I told you so if he struggles his upcoming weekend field.

223
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: Maybe the most underrated moment from the Monday night football

224
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 2: games in Bear's Commanders in the first half, Dan Quinn

225
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: challenges a first and ten one yard catch. He wins

226
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 2: the challenge, so it's not it's not a second and nine.

227
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen that weird of a challenge.

228
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 3: No, I'm so glad you brought this up to Taylor

229
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 3: because so I mean it. I was like I went

230
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 3: to Twitter, which was probably my first mistake, right, but

231
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 3: I tweeted like why would you challenge a one yard reception?

232
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 3: You know, like, and when Joe Buck on the call

233
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 3: was sort of like, what are you doing here? Right?

234
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 3: And you could have made the case as a matter

235
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 3: of fact, And I feel bad he's a teammate, but

236
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 3: I think Russell Yuke the expert, the rules expert. They

237
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 3: brought him in and he was sort of like, hey, reminder,

238
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 3: the ball can touch the ground. It just can't dislodge.

239
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 3: So if you catch the football, the ball touches the

240
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 3: ground and it moves it all incomplete. If you catch

241
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: it the ball doesn't move, but it touches the ground,

242
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: you've maintained control. Anyways, I thought, basically there was a

243
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 3: chance that the reps just said, no, it's it is

244
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 3: a one yard catch. But the irony of all this,

245
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: and I swear like I try to be not too

246
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 3: vested personally in either team throughout these games. But of

247
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 3: course subsequently the Bears get nine yards turn the football

248
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 3: over on downs, and people are like, that's why you

249
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: do it, that's why you challenge a one yard catch.

250
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 3: And then of course the Commanders are up in late

251
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 3: in that game, and then the Bears end up kicking

252
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 3: the last second field goal. And it was funny because

253
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: I think most reasonable people would agree that challenges are

254
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 3: often like process oriented, like that, whether it's a good

255
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: challenge or not, much more about the process than result. Right, Like, Hey,

256
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 3: if it's a game changing third down and you think

257
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 3: the guy is actually a foot and a half short

258
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 3: and you want to set up fourth down, then yeah,

259
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: you should be challenging that a right, it's a huge

260
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 3: catchdown the field. You think it's an incompletion, you should

261
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 3: be challenging that. Like commanders fans were my mentions and

262
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 3: they were like, this is about the mentality that every

263
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 3: yard matters, and yes, yes, very al Pacino, Uh you

264
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 3: know this is this is the defense was tired. We

265
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 3: wanted to uh you know, we wanted to give them

266
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 3: a breather. I'm like, take a time out. Then take

267
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: a time out, because taking the time out over risking

268
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 3: a challenge. So I'm too worked up over this, clearly

269
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 3: because I thought it was a really I thought it

270
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 3: was a surprising challenge. He was right, I mean, I mean, yeah, yeah,

271
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 3: that's just funny because like what, I have two other

272
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 3: plays at taking places in the second half before the

273
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 3: two minute warning. You use your challenge on one of them,

274
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 3: and then you are out of challenges, right, Like there

275
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 3: are ways to exhaust your challenges in more consequential plays.

276
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: I am a Boston Celtics fan. That is the team

277
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 3: that I care about most in all of professional sports

278
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 3: as a fan, and Joe Mazzuola, their head coach, who

279
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: has been very successful, who has won an NBA championship

280
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 3: and as a coach that I love is the King

281
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 3: of Like early in the game, it'll be like the

282
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 3: opening tip off and like a celt like the ball

283
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: will go out of bounds and it may have grazed

284
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 3: off of the Celtics or their opponent, and it'll challenge

285
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 3: it and you're like, this has zero outcome or zero

286
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 3: influence on the outcome. But some coaches are just wired

287
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 3: a whole lot differently than I would be in that seat.

288
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 3: End of rank.

289
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 5: Who wants to stay the line.

290
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: I didn't say.

291
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 5: Dan Quinn a game of quinches, I mean.

292
00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: Nailed it, nailed it was Taylor.

293
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 5: You concerned about the Eagles? Gel what it wanted? He

294
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 5: rejected it, he thought it was bad.

295
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 4: I was.

296
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 3: As a h Yeah, I got one of my favorite right, yeah,

297
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 3: Baked good?

298
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 5: The Eagles. You concerned?

299
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: The Eagles who were probably the best team in the

300
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: NFL two weeks ago. Are you concerned?

301
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 5: Now?

302
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 3: Hey, I was there on Thursday night at the game,

303
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 3: which I rarely, and I mean rarely go to NFL

304
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 3: games during the regular season, just because you know, the

305
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 3: Riggers of Sundays am in the studio. Then obviously basically

306
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 3: it's Monday and Thursday. It's got to be either the

307
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 3: Jets Giants or Patriots playing at home to get there

308
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 3: from Connecticut, and I definitely believe that, like we hold

309
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl champion to a standard of if they're

310
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 3: not at their peak to begin the season, they're not

311
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 3: given the same level of grace as other teams. So

312
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 3: it's like, hey, let's like let's just see how things

313
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 3: look as the season goes along. So I I was

314
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 3: more patient on the Eagles going into that game that

315
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 3: I was coming out of that game. The energy was

316
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 3: and this is the kind of thing that I think

317
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 3: you feel and see a little better when you're actually

318
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 3: at the game. Energy was definitely off. It just felt

319
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 3: like there was I don't know that the Giants felt

320
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 3: a little more engaged during the game than the Eagles were,

321
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 3: which you know, there are some players right now that

322
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 3: you know. AJ Brown felt like there's been some interesting

323
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: moments over the past couple of weeks. He feels like

324
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 3: the kind of guy who you got to find a

325
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 3: way to get him going. Because when things are great

326
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 3: for AJ Brown, he can be one of the game's

327
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 3: elite game changers. But when things are going like they

328
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 3: have of late, you know, a lot of frustrations seems

329
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 3: to mount on that Eagles sideline, which they're gonna be

330
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 3: very good. I think this team is still absolutely a

331
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 3: playoff team, but I was expecting them to come in

332
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 3: Thursday night, short week and put the Broncos loss behind

333
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: them by taking care of business handily against the Giants.

334
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 2: Field on FanDuel, the Bills are still minus two thirty

335
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: to win the AFC East. The Patriots are second at

336
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 2: plus one eighty five. What would your argument be for

337
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: the Patriots that isn't dependent on like the Bills losing Patriots?

338
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 2: I mean, first of all, I think the most important

339
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: good is like, yeah, they're like Drake may looks like

340
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 2: a total stud. There's been a lot of I don't

341
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 2: know about surprising quarterback play, but there's some guys that

342
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: we haven't been discussing. Is like, you know, top five

343
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: quarterbacks that have been playing close to it, if not

344
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: at that level, Like Baker Mayfield has firmly planted himself

345
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 2: in that conversation, the MVP conversation.

346
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 3: Sam Darnold's playing awesome football as well, right, Like Caleb

347
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 3: Williams looks much improved to me personally, Like we're seeing

348
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 3: that Danny Dimes who were talking about earlier, so there's

349
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: been a lot of like feel good on the rise

350
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 3: quarterback stories. Drake May is right there in the middle

351
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 3: of that as well. The Patriots' schedule is also very favorable.

352
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 3: You know, It's one of the reasons why we see

353
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 3: these teams go from worst to first is you play

354
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 3: the worst schedule, right, So the Patriots, unlike the Bills,

355
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 3: they're not drawing Kansas City in Houston and Baltimore as

356
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 3: their AFC conference pos. They're drawing the teams at the

357
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 3: bottom of the barrel, right, So the Patriots, who are

358
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 3: now four and two, gets over the next two weeks.

359
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: Of course, the Titans this week, then the Browns the

360
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 3: following week. Like there was a time, I believe when

361
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 3: ESPN bett released all of its odds for the game

362
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 3: schedule after the schedule was announced May fifteenth or whatever

363
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 3: it was, the Patriots were favoring like eleven games. At

364
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 3: the time, I was like, really for a team that

365
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 3: was four and thirteen or three and fourteen last year. Really,

366
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 3: But with the way the Drake May is playing, Mike

367
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 3: vrabel is, you know, I think the kind of coach

368
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,199
Speaker 3: who has a legitimate, direct influence on every game that

369
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 3: he is on the sidelines for they've got a chance.

370
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 3: They've got a chance, you know, I think at the

371
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 3: very least is the team that will be there when

372
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 3: the playoffs begin in January. They have played really well,

373
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 3: and the AFC has been less dominant than I think

374
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 3: all of us were expecting, especially how things started. Right

375
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 3: for the first free weeks, Buffalo and the Chargers were

376
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 3: three and h You're saying to yourselves, all right, the

377
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 3: new power brokers of the AFC might be Buffalo, Indianapolis

378
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 3: and the Chargers. Three weeks later, Indy has held serve.

379
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 3: But the Chargers, you know, barely beat the Dolphins and

380
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 3: they're now four and two and Kansas City is breathing

381
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 3: down their neck.

382
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 5: Their next seven games.

383
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: You're so right about this at Tennessee home against Cleveland,

384
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: home against Atlanta at Tampa Bay, which is tough obviously

385
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: than the Jets, the Bengals and the Giants.

386
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 5: Like it's all set up for the Patriots right now.

387
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 3: It's there, it's there. You've got to hold serve, like

388
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: if you're this is one of those where when you're, yes,

389
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 3: you're playing really well, but when you are you're coming

390
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 3: off of a season like last year. Like not to

391
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 3: sound like an NFL head coach right now, but you

392
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 3: can't take any game for granted, like if you stumbled

393
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 3: once or twice, and these winnable games going forward, which

394
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 3: the Patriots, by the way, they stumbled against the Raiders

395
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 3: in Week one. They turned the football over five times

396
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 3: against the Steelers back in Week three or four. They

397
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 3: can't afford those kind of losses going forward or else

398
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 3: this talk of them being a potential playoff team will

399
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 3: just go by the wayside.

400
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: There's no way that Rabel loses the revenge game this weekend, right,

401
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 2: I'd be surprised.

402
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 3: You know, Titans obviously making a coaching change this week.

403
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 3: Maybe there's the you know, the different vibe and energy

404
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 3: of Mike McCoy versus Brian Callahan. But they're overmatched, you

405
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: know we I think looking at this roster, it's pretty

406
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 3: evident how many holes they have. I'm a believer, big

407
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 3: believer in cam Ward, but this has got to be

408
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: a two or three year play for Tennessee.

409
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 5: Stud got to here from my friends at Brunt's, all right.

410
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: I'll be honest. I don't work in construction. I'm not

411
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 1: out there swinging a hammer under the hood of a truck.

412
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 1: But I've got a lot of friends who do, and

413
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: they kept telling me about these Brunt workwear boots.

414
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 5: So I grabbed a pair the Marin and now I

415
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:44,239
Speaker 5: get it.

416
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: Even for me just running around doing yard work, walking

417
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 1: the dog, whatever. These things are insanely comfortable, and what

418
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: blew me away is how good they fell right out

419
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: of the box. No breaking period, no blisters, no sore feet,

420
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: just pure comfort and durability. Brent was started by somebody

421
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: who grew up blue collar and got tired of seeing

422
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: big brands sell out. His friends told him the gear

423
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: hadn't changed in one hundred years, so he built something

424
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: better and even named every product after the guys he

425
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: grew up with. Whether you were on the job site

426
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: or just need a pair of boots that can handle anything,

427
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: Brunt's got you covered. Brent was tired of the workwear

428
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: brands out there cutting quarters. You work too hard to

429
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: be stuck in uncomfortable boots that don't hold up, so

430
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: they built something better, boots that are insanely comfortable and

431
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,440
Speaker 1: built for any job site. For a limited time, our

432
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,399

Speaker 6: Word and you are good to go. Are the Steelers

437
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 6: are quiet?

438
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 5: Four of one?

439
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 3: They are?

440
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, they really are? They really aren't Rodgers quiet?

441
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 3: Amazing? It's so the Steelers took the field against the

442
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 3: Vikings back in week four, nine thirty am kickoff time.

443
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 3: By the time the Steelers got back on the field

444
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 3: this past weekend, they had the Browns, Ravens, and Bengals

445
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 3: all had gone oh and two. The Browns had just

446
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 3: gone oh and three because they lost over in London.

447
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 3: So since that time, you know, the Steelers are taking

448
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: care of business and the other teams are digging themselves

449
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 3: a massive hole. Cleveland and Cincinnati aren't going to be

450
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 3: a factor this year, obviously, But Baltimore, you know, like

451
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 3: one in five. I don't you know, the schedules does

452
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 3: look nice on paper. I was talking about the Patriots

453
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 3: having minimal margin for air, like their margin for air

454
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 3: is a lot wider than where but where Baltimore's is

455
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 3: at one in five? Like, really, guys, for a team

456
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 3: that has plenty of talent, they got to basically be perfect,

457
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 3: and Lamar has to stay healthy after the buy, because

458
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 3: it certainly sounds like that hamstrings and has kept him

459
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 3: out will not keep him out past this week seven.

460
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 1: By coming up, the Steelers might have won sixty to

461
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 1: win that division on FANDUL Baltimore plus one seventy five.

462
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: Can you envision a scenario where John Horbaugh is fired

463
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: as the Baltimore Ravens head coach?

464
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 3: All right, so I'd be surprised. I'd be very surprised.

465
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 3: I just would say that, And I have zero knowledge

466
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 3: or anything here, but the NFL is good for the

467
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 3: curve ball every once in a while, So I've my

468
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 3: one of my lessons is like I'm stopping short of

469
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 3: guaranteeing coaches sticking around. Maybe Andy Reid and a couple

470
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 3: others would be an exception here, but the list is

471
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 3: not very long. It would totally surprise me.

472
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 5: What if Lamar, let me give you this scenario.

473
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson walks into the owner's office and he says,

474
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: I want John Horbo.

475
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 2: He's been doing this all week, by the way, all week.

476
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: Christim well hold On Sims agree with me. I believe

477
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson has this kind of power. We are looking

478
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: at a generational quarterback in his prime who hasn't made

479
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: it to a championship game. If he says to the owner, Hey,

480
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: me and this coach we don't work. It's not working.

481
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: I want him out of here. Do you think they

482
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: get rid of John Horba?

483
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't think that's going to happen. But I

484
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 3: do think that taking me we agree on the outcome here, yes,

485
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 3: Lamar would be because let's look at what happened, right,

486
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 3: So Lamar gets hurt and what does his team turned

487
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 3: into a complete shell of itself?

488
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: Right?

489
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 3: And I get it. They were one in three when

490
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 3: Lamar was on the field, but it was the defense's

491
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 3: fault more so than it was Lamar's fault. Yes, I

492
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 3: think that. I truly believe that, like highest level winning

493
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 3: and sustained success as a byproduct of a quarterback and

494
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 3: a coach. But if you're choosing one in a vacuum,

495
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 3: you know, the MVP or the MVP runner up, MVP

496
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 3: runner up last year, and the already two time MVP

497
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 3: in a vacuum more valuable than his coach.

498
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: Does Mike McDaniel finish the season as a Dolphins said coach.

499
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go, yes, but I man, this game this

500
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 3: upcoming weekend. I just it's this game this weekend's kind

501
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 3: of set up for Monday morning discourse. Because if you're

502
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 3: the Dolphins and you lose to the Browns only one

503
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 3: in five Browns, Yes, if you're the Browns and you

504
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 3: lose to the lowly one and five Dolphins, you know,

505
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 3: both of these coaches are obviously under a tremendous amount

506
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 3: of pressure right now. Kevin Stefanski on Monday of this week,

507
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 3: I think Monday, Yeah, confirmed, I said, Hey, I'm keeping

508
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 3: I'm keeping play calling duties, which typically when you're in now,

509
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 3: like when there's talk about whether you should change stuff,

510
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 3: it might be some of the first cracks that you

511
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 3: see and the coaches under duress. So it's it's definitely

512
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 3: a this game has my attention, not for the right,

513
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 3: not for the most enjoyable reasons. Yes, that's my attention

514
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 3: for sure. I mean, if one team gets wiped out,

515
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 3: and how do you not have this converse station on

516
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: Monday like.

517
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 2: It it sounds like it could be a loser leaves

518
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 2: town game.

519
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yess yeah, I wouldn't. Again, I just you know,

520
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 3: I think that I tend to defer to like the

521
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 3: coach will last the year, because a lot of times

522
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 3: the interim head coach doesn't do much other than just like,

523
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 3: you know, change for the sake of change. But I

524
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 3: would have thought the Titans would have held on a

525
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 3: little bit longer. And the thing you can't ever rule

526
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 3: out is when the owner gets upset, the owner will

527
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 3: do whatever he or she wants. And you know, the

528
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 3: GM might be saying the right things publicly and privately,

529
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 3: but if the owner comes in and says, I want

530
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 3: it to happen right now, then they're right in the checks.

531
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 3: They get the authority to make those decisions. Field.

532
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 4: They say, when you want to get out of a hole,

533
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 4: the first thing you got to do is put down

534
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 4: the shovel. So I go to Aaron Glenny and I'm looking.

535
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 5: At this Listen.

536
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 4: I have to because I want to know if we're

537
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 4: going to see a one and done. Because last week

538
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 4: Stu gave Aaron glennon out. He said, listen, if you

539
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: quit right now, I will remember you as the player

540
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: the Jets, yes were tend the last six months didn't exist.

541
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 5: Don remember him for the right reasons. I do Yeah,

542
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 5: really do get it?

543
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 4: This is this looks to me like one of the

544
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 4: worst coach teams in the NFL. This looks to me

545
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 4: like the same old Jets Time's Infinity, and it's only

546
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 4: getting worse with Garrett Wilson being out.

547
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 3: A few weeks.

548
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, could we see a one and done with a

549
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 4: guy who came in and said big ships turned slow?

550
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 3: I would not bet on it, especially because of that

551
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 3: line the lineage he has with the franchise. He's a

552
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 3: Bill Parcells guy. You can imagine that Woody Johnson say

553
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 3: whatever you want about him, probably is consulting. Would consult

554
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 3: with Bill Parcells on situations like this. The only thing

555
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 3: that I would say if I were, and he would

556
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 3: never bother asking for my opinion or advice, is if

557
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 3: you're Aaron Glenn and I get it, he's a human.

558
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 3: It's very frustrating. I think an easy way to warm

559
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 3: your own seat a little more is to get snippy

560
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 3: with the media. When you go up there and you're

561
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 3: zero and six. My advice is, to the best of

562
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 3: your ability, during some really crappy time, just go up

563
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 3: there and be the nicest guy you can possibly be.

564
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 3: Right after the game, he was asked, hey, are you

565
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 3: considering benching Justin Fields and immediately sort of snipped back

566
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 3: at the reporter. You know, and that's a long brin coast.

567
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 3: He's a very respected Jets reporter for a long time.

568
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 3: But the post my advice, But don't do that, right

569
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 3: It only I think enragees fans more and owners would

570
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 3: probably deny this. I think it's a stone cold fact.

571
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: Owners pay attention to fan reaction more than ever now.

572
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 3: It's it's it's a business for them, right And if

573
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 3: the fans become agnostic, they're not going to fill up

574
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 3: the stadium and they're not going to buy merchandise.

575
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: And if lost us well before this, I can tell

576
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 1: you that much youts.

577
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 3: That's fair, that's fair. I don't think one done though.

578
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 3: It's my guest, no one and done.

579
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 5: Would you blame Aaron Glenn if he decided he wanted

580
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 5: wanted done?

581
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 3: Does he get the bag? Does he get to walk away?

582
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 3: Does he get the James Franklin package on the way,

583
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 3: I don't know. Do you get all the money?

584
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,439
Speaker 1: He gets the money he gets to go back to

585
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 1: now you know what, no money just gets to go

586
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: back to Detroit.

587
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 3: Oh Man I think I would probably just I'd write

588
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 3: it out there. Let's let them send you packing before

589
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 3: you send yourself packing. Man, I want to be a

590
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 3: college football coach in my next life.

591
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: Is Jackson dark at to save Brian Dables job at

592
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: Joe Shane for that matter.

593
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I tell you, I've been thinking, like, what's the

594
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 3: number of wins they have to get to where it's

595
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 3: not much of a conversation. I think if they get

596
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 3: to seven and ten, we don't talk about it that much,

597
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 3: right Like, I think it's like, hey, you like we're

598
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 3: on the right path. This is a coach in a GMO,

599
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 3: believe in the player. If it's five and twelve, it

600
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: might still be a conversation. But he tell you what

601
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 3: I mentioned. I was at that game earlier. That place

602
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 3: is gripped by Jackson Dart, like that stadium was bumping

603
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 3: for I mean, and Cam Skataboo as well. But Jackson

604
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 3: Dart definitely has shown a lot of Giants, fans and

605
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 3: just football observers in general a lot. Now A ton

606
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 3: of it's with his legs. So far, we need to

607
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 3: see a little bit more of like the passing game,

608
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 3: but we saw some improvement last week in that regard,

609
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 3: you know, he had a nice connection with Wandale Robinson

610
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 3: starting to build some confidence. So it's a roster that

611
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 3: still needs a lot of work, but it's definitely you know,

612
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 3: the ship is moving in the right direction, and I

613
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 3: was very concerned about that maybe two or three weeks ago.

614
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: He makes up for any inefficiencies with Moxie. You would agree, right,

615
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: Moxie just it's got a lot of moxy. He doesn't

616
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: tell you that does.

617
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 3: Not lack that kid.

618
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, like him reminds me a Baker. Anyway, Go ahead, Mikey.

619
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 3: Field, you're Baker Baker.

620
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 4: Uh Field, You're you're covering the draft. Now you're covering

621
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 4: a lot of that stuff. Now you're you're doing a

622
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 4: show with our boy melt Kyper. And suppose you were

623
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 4: a fan of a team that say, might need a

624
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 4: quarterback in in in the future. Uh we went into

625
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 4: the season thinking there was going to be six fighting

626
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 4: for that number one spot, and it seems like none

627
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 4: of them wanted. So if you're trying to avoid the

628
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 4: Jets each other, so at this point, who would you

629
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 4: say is the first quarterback taken off the board?

630
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 3: I've been using this analogy on our show recently, and

631
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 3: I think it's one that I'll stick with. It's it's

632
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 3: become like a horse race in the sense that like

633
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 3: just because you have a one length lead, it doesn't

634
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 3: matter until we get to the very finish of the race.

635
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: That being said, so my October fourteenth soccer port would

636
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 3: be Fernanda Mendoza from Indiana. First, don't on the list

637
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,479
Speaker 3: to start right, was not now and he was on

638
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 3: the like he was on for sure? Yeah?

639
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 5: Good?

640
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 3: No, I think honestly I was. I was a fan

641
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 3: of Fernando at cal There's receipts there like Indiana fans

642
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 3: that made me feel good about myself. I put some

643
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 3: tweet out there and like the like randomly, like some

644
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 3: random May night, and I was like, this kid's legit,

645
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 3: Like he's gonna be a beast for Indiana, And I

646
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 3: guess Hoosi yours fans have found that they're like Baull Knower,

647
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 3: which yeah, usually usually Twitter is like, nephew, your piece

648
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 3: of crap. Uh, So we'll take whatever victories we can get,

649
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 3: as infrequent as they might be. Mendoza Dante more. I

650
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 3: think the next tier is like a Leonoras Sellers is

651
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 3: in that conversation John Mattier, Oklahoma. In that conversation long

652
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 3: Ways to Go, Like, the thing about these quarterbacks is,

653
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 3: and I'm trying to get better about this myself going forward.

654
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 3: And it's not exactly how our industry works, where we

655
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 3: rank these players in a vacuum, right like one, two, three,

656
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 3: four five, Whereas I think they're like, if you look

657
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 3: at the Seahawks right now, the Seahawks signed Sam Darnold,

658
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 3: who Sam's playing really well there, it's also like the

659
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 3: exact right type of scheme that you want to play

660
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 3: with Sam, right, They felt like Sam was a better

661
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 3: scheme fit than Geno Smith Younger as well, almost the

662
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 3: exact same price. But there are certain teams where it's like,

663
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 3: all right, you know, like this guy would not work

664
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 3: trying to do what we do. So I have Fernando

665
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 3: Mendoza on average as the best quarterback, but some of

666
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 3: it's gonna pendable kind of scheme you a run. Dante

667
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 3: Moore will continue to be in that mix as well.

668
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 3: Out of Oregon. It's one team, it'll be a terrible scheme.

669
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 3: That's which one is the best at running a terrible scheme.

670
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 5: That's you, guys, You just mentioned with the Jets.

671
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 3: I think it's yeah, these these quarterbacks got to be

672
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 3: a little at least these coaches be a little bit more.

673
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 3: I would say scheme friendly is like if you're going

674
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 3: to make an investment of the kid number one overall,

675
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 3: it's you got to marry the kid more than the

676
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 3: kids got to marry your system.

677
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: If that makes sense, right, I tell you want to

678
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: brag on Mendoza real quick?

679
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 5: Do you want to do that?

680
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 2: I mean, so field this this. I believe it was June.

681
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 3: We had Mike Golick on and we were discussing who

682
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 3: are under the radar quarterbacks that we should try to

683
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 3: get on the show to become our guy before the season. Yeah,

684
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 3: ball knowers.

685
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 2: Golick picked Haines King from Georgia Tech. Yep, I picked

686
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 2: Fernando Mendozo. Yeah, I mean, you know, ball he's been

687
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 2: he probably has. I said this and Meil did not

688
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 2: agree with me, and we had this conversation on Monday.

689
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 3: Uh, he agreed. He thinks it's it's it's kind of

690
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 3: a coin flip. I think Mendoz is the best thrower

691
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 3: of the football in the of the draft eligible quarterbacks

692
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 3: right like like he is a like, he's just got

693
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 3: all level ability. He can just he's got an absolute cannon.

694
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 3: He's legit in that regard. He's got some mobility, not

695
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 3: great mobility, but some mobility. So I am a fan

696
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 3: of Mendoza as a potential number one overall.

697
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 5: Pick Taylor, who did I pick?

698
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: I don't believe you. I don't believe you had one.

699
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 5: I thought you were just gonna give me the worst

700
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 5: of the crew. I mean.

701
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 3: You're all over Jill.

702
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 5: Yeah it was.

703
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: Yes.

704
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 5: I also like Carolinago and Undefeated.

705
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 3: I did, That's true? He did you know undefeated undefeated?

706
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 3: Uh Field, Yeah it did. Yeah, Geo Lopez.

707
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 2: Were so while I was right on Fernando Mendoza, I

708
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 2: do have to admit I said there was no way

709
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 2: that Bill Belichick was losing to Scott Frost and U

710
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 2: C f absolutely dragged Carolina they did.

711
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 3: He Yeah, we we fans don't care about this, but

712
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 3: like we hit, we miss. I think the more we

713
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 3: can own up to our misses and try to learn

714
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 3: from them, the better. A big man, big fan of

715
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 3: accountability here.

716
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 5: You know, yes you have learned well, yes, who cares

717
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:14,760
Speaker 5: learn from sports?

718
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 3: But people do care?

719
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 5: Right?

720
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 3: I mean that's it's probably this. This what I'm talking

721
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 3: about right now is probably much more during the fantasy

722
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 3: season where people are basically asking you to guess right

723
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 3: in the coin flip, right, Like, no one is like, Okay, Field,

724
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 3: so should I start Christian McCaffrey or Isaiah Davis at

725
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 3: running back this weekend?

726
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 5: Right?

727
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 3: It's like, Okay, I'm choosing between two guys who have

728
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 3: averaged between eleven and eleven point twenty five points this year.

729
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 3: They have flip flopped in terms of who has been

730
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 3: the highest scorer each week this season? Who should I

731
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 3: play and why? And it's like, oh, you guessed wrong

732
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 3: on a coin flip. This guy outscored the other guy

733
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 3: by you know, one point three fantasy points. You're the

734
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 3: dumbest personal life, Thank you very much.

735
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 2: Field, Does it ever bother you that people are asking

736
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 2: you like who should start wide receiver four?

737
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 3: Wide receiver four?

738
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 2: And nobody's asking you like, you know, how how are

739
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:01,760
Speaker 2: you doing? Field?

740
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 5: Oh?

Speaker 1: sent Field two weeks ago.

749
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 3: Are you king no? Because you and I talk like

00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 3: heard from you was Week sixteen of last year. Like

778
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 3: in any way, shape or form, no like its life

779
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 3: is a fantasy football.

780
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 5: Guy, Oh my god.

781
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: The fantasy pick that has been the most discipplined the

782
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: guy you thought that was, you know, the guy you

783
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: thought before this season, Hey, this guy's going to be great.

784
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,399
Speaker 5: That has turned out to be a bus so far.

785
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 3: Probably the most disappointing. Brian Thomas Junior had a good

786
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 3: week last week, but he's been on that disaip pointing list.

787
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 3: I actually had a couple of names that I was

788
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,760
Speaker 3: let me see. I just sent him. Chase Brown probably

789
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 3: is the answer, though, Chase Brown. Chase Brown. I'd written

790
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 3: something down earlier for something we're doing on our show

791
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 3: sometime soon. And Chase Brown is probably the biggest disappointment

792
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 3: because like even guys that had disappointed for periods, like

793
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 3: Ashton Genty started slow, but he's been much better over

794
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 3: the past three weeks. Like Chase Brown has just been bad.

795
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 3: And it's that entire offense is a joke other than

796
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase right now. So Chase Brown would be the

797
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 3: biggest disappointment. Trevon Henderson hasn't been good. He's been bad

798
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 3: as a matter of fact for the Patriots as well.

799
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 3: Brian Thomas Junior still getting there. He was better last

800
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 3: week though. Chakobe Myers has been bad for like five

801
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 3: straight weeks. Jerry Jewey has been bad for a few weeks.

802
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 3: For those guys that were draping, Chase Brown was like

803
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 3: a top twenty to twenty five player in pretty much

804
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 3: everybody's eyes.

805
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: We'll get you out of here on this note. It's

806
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: the biggest mystery in the NFL is Trevor Lawrence Good.

807
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 3: I don't know, but I tend to think that when

808
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 3: you don't know, the answer is now, it's it's especially

809
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 3: when we should Yes, he's just too inconsistent, you know,

810
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 3: And yes, we can, Like I just believe. I believe

811
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 3: this fundamentally is like quarterbacks have to have moments. It's

812
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,879
Speaker 3: one of the reasons why Fernanda Mendoza is in the lead,

813
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 3: so to speak, is that he has Now, you know,

814
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 3: had you know, a couple of moments in games like

815
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 3: the Iowa game. I know Iowa was not great, but

816
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 3: Iowa is still a tough place to play. They're good defensively,

817
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 3: had some big throws in the last quarter of that game.

818
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 3: Same with this past weekend against Oregon. Now, Dante More

819
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 3: had his moment against Penn State, but Mendoza had a

820
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 3: couple of moments. There have been some for Trevor Lawrence. Right,

821
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 3: the twenty seven point comeback in the playoffs is big.

822
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: But his moment was the trip right, not over the

823
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,919
Speaker 1: offensive lineman, over his own feet.

824
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, I think I think he's fine, but fine.

825
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,439
Speaker 3: It's not usually a formula for winning at a high level.

826
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,399
Speaker 3: I it was. That was cool. That was very cool.

827
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 3: I'll give him that.

828
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 5: That is the Trevor Lawrence experience. Truly, He's terrible. He's terrible. Again,

829
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 5: he's great.

830
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 3: You know, that's you never know what you're in yet.

831
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: Ye, Yeah, feel. We appreciate it, buddy. We know it's

832
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: a busy time for you. Thank you for so much time.

833
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 5: You give us. Too much time, man, you should be busier.

834
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 3: I'm leaving next time you come. No, not, can't do it.

835
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 3: I'm available next year. Next solstice will be available.

836
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 5: I'll text you week one in September.

837
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 3: O God bless Taylor. There it is.

838
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: Forgot it, Kirker Dick Dix always thinks
