00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: the hour, the man himself missed the football from Fox

Speaker 1: Andy?

16
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 4: How you doing?

17
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 2: Everything is won well, everything is not wonderful. I'm a

18
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 2: little perturbed, all right, and I'm gonna share it with

19
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 2: you because I cannot imagine this situation that happened the

20
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: other day. When the Michigan University football team the plane

21
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 2: touchdown Friday afternoon, the coaches and the players getting off

22
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 2: the plane, they learn that the Big Ten has suspended

23
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: their coach, Jim Harbor, for the final three regular season

24
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 2: games beginning with yesterday's game against number ten Pence State.

25
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 2: I cannot imagine that you're with your guy, your coach,

26
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 2: the guy you signed up to play for all week

27
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: long in practice, the assistant coaches as well as well,

28
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 2: and you get off the plane and you're shocked with

29
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: this news. This is the most ridiculous asonine situation left

30
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: heard that I couldn't wait for the end of the season.

31
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: I don't get it. You're punishing the kids. You're not

32
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: punishing anybody but the kids that signed up to play

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 2: for Jim Harbaugh. It makes me sick.

34
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's not a great situation. And I understand

35
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: everyone who wants something done. I understand people who are

36
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: mad about the violation of the sportsmanship policy. Regardless of

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: whether Jim Harbor knew or not, they do have proof

38
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: that there was a Michigan stafford that was videotaping and

39
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: advanced scouting, and those things violate those bylaws and policies.

40
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: The problem that I have with it is just kind

41
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: of like the theater that has become. If you're gonna

42
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: punish him, and they need to go through their due

43
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: process or go through the procedures to do it. Yeah,

44
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: that's fine, but it shouldn't impact game action directly this

45
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 1: year while they're sorting it out. If they want to

46
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 1: met out the punishment and say they have everything done,

47
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: they completed it for Michigan side, or the story and

48
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: those things, and then they hand out the punishment, that's

49
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: one thing. But to remove him from the field before

50
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: going through that process, to me, is problematic, and it

51
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: could have impacted the game.

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 4: It could impact.

53
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,399
Speaker 1: Not only like the Big Ten title for this year,

54
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: but it could also impact have national title implications. To me,

55
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: it's just a big mess. And so I'm actually glad.

56
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: That Michigan right, I'm with you one thousand percent. Now

57
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: they say it's a violation of a sportsmanship policy. Look,

58
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 2: paying athletes to me, is a violation of sportsmanship policy,

59
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 2: and they're doing it right now. You know, the NIL

60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: that was a great situation on paper. It turned out

61
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: at backfired. They'll never admit it at backfire. What it

62
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: basically is done is that for years there were boosters

63
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 2: paying college athletes. You know what, I know what, everybody

64
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 2: knows it. But now they somewhat make it legal under

65
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: the umbrella of NIL. So to me, that's not sportsmanship.

66
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 2: We talk about illegal recruiting. What about coaches that offer

67
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: kids their parents their homes orfer new homes. Some dads

68
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: get coaching positions. I've seen that in college basketball that

69
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 2: take a college recruit out of high school and I'll

70
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 2: take us farther and make him an assistant coach. It

71
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 2: happens all the time. But these scouting opponents, now Michigan's

72
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: gonna get slapped around? Are you kidding me? Does that

73
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: really help them winning? Michigan to me, in my mind,

74
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: could play ten against eleven and still beat Rutgers. Believe me,

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: they don't need that scouting. It's unbelievable. I don't get it.

76
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh has been picked out in the first three

77
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 2: games he missed, and now they just pick on Jim Harbaugh. Why,

78
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: he's one of those guys. They found him, and they're

79
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: gonna pick on him until Michigan says it's no good.

80
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 2: He's gonna leave and probably coach in the NFL next year.

81
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder. I wonder if he will there because

82
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: I know they can try and run him out in

83
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: those things. But why would you want to leave when

84
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: you got the program up and running and it's it's

85
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: been so dominant.

86
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 4: The last three years.

87
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: Whether people say it's a part of the its byproduct

88
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: of the science stealing, or whatever the scandal that occurs

89
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: that comes out of this may be, you can't deny

90
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: they're dominance on the field. I mean they've been dominating people.

91
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: They want back to back Big Ten championships.

92
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,799
Speaker 2: Points every game. It's it's amazing.

93
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean they're rolling. He has the team

94
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: on the verge of being in the same conversation as

95
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: to Georgia's, to Alabama's. Look, it's exactly what you want.

96
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: So I don't I don't know if I see him leaving,

97
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: And in fact, I don't think he leaves with the

98
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: NCAA trying to push him out. I think there's the

99
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: competitor in him that kind of wants to stick it

100
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: to everybody. So I don't know if he if he'll

101
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: go to the National Football League so quickly.

102
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you something. You know, everybody is similar

103
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 2: the hithypocrite. You got everybody in college football, or at

104
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: least Big Ten coaches pointing fingers at Michigan. Yeah, well yeah,

105
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 2: well look, on Wednesday I read this report that Ohio State,

106
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: their coach Ryan day, He denies now that his buck

107
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 2: guys gave Michigan's place signals to Purdue last year. Are

108
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 2: you kidding me? I mean, this is happening all over

109
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,679
Speaker 2: the place. That happened to single out Michigan. Michigan got caught.

110
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: I get it. It's no big whoop, dep because I

111
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: don't think that makes a difference on the field. Dion

112
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 2: Sanders said it the first time this story hit. You

113
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: gotta prove it on the field. You gotta do it

114
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: on the field. This scouting stuff's not going to you know,

115
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: I saw yesterday's game. At the end of the game,

116
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: Michigan had an interception, you know, and the game was

117
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 2: somewhat close. It was like seventeen to nine, and then

118
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: they intercepted and they scored a touchdown. I'm saying to myself,

119
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: did the signal stealing that's going to create the interception?

120
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 2: Are you kidding? It's it's a joke, it really is.

121
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 2: It makes me sick to hear this, to put a

122
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 2: blind eye, a bad eye, a black eye on the

123
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: Michigan football program, especially these It's a great football team

124
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: and they don't need to have this site story to

125
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: hurt them.

126
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: Nah, they certainly don't need to decide story to hurt them.

127
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: This is a team that was doing really, really well

128
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: prior to that stuff, and it's one of the things

129
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: that disappoints me is because man, I do love the

130
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: way they play. I love the way that in the

131
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: second half they decided they were going to just try

132
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: and jam it down Penn State random ball on thirty

133
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: two consecutive players.

134
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:25,559
Speaker 4: In the second half.

135
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: You have a Heisman Trophy candidate and JJ McCarthy who

136
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: didn't throw past the second half. Yet when you talk

137
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: to him after the game, he was just as happy

138
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: and content to get the dub. This team has a

139
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: lot of admirable qualities when it comes to the way

140
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: the team is connected. There togetherness, their chemistry and camaraderie

141
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: and all those things that you love to see in

142
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: team sports.

143
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 4: And then the fact that.

144
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: They're able to put it together, win games and do

145
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: all this stuff. I'm really impressed. I'm really impressed that

146
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: they were able to do it with Jim Harball being

147
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: on the side.

148
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 4: And the final thing is Sharon.

149
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: Moore, the offensive line coach, who was elegvated to inim

150
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: head coach. His adoration of his head coach, the loyalty

151
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: that he displayed to his head coach, I mean as

152
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: a coach, that's exactly the.

153
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 4: Kind of staff that you want.

154
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: You want assistants who kind of ride and die for

155
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: you like I love that.

156
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 4: I love seeing that.

157
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: And at a time where he could have been selfish

158
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: and made it about himself, for him to make it

159
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: about Harba and the university and those people around him,

160
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: to me, speaks volumes about what they really have going

161
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: on within their culture.

162
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: That was beautiful. I mean you took about emotion. I

163
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 2: mean television caught it exactly. I mean he led a

164
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 2: couple of f bombs. I mean there's no big woop.

165
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: I mean it was on TV. But he didn't do

166
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: it because he wanted to be a grandioso kind of guy.

167
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: He did it just out of emotion. I didn't think

168
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: he knew he was on TV and the tears started

169
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 2: rolling down his cheeks. I loved every minute of it.

170
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: And when JJ McCarthy was inter viewed, coach, I love you.

171
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: I love your coach. I mean, this is what really

172
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: what sports is all about. And look, we say sports

173
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: is entertainment all the time. Let's talk about sportsmanship. If

174
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: sports is at the tainment. I remember a story way

175
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 2: back when when I lived in Denver, Colorado. It was

176
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: a big wrestling show was scheduled in Denver. Woody. Paige

177
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: was then the columnist for the Rocky Mountain News. He

178
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 2: wrote a column about this wrestling match.

179
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: You know what he did.

180
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: He put all the winners of that match in his

181
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: column before the match was scheduled.

182
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: You know.

183
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 2: And we know that wrestling is somewhat you know, not

184
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: kosher to say the least, okay, but people still win

185
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: because it's entertainment. That's what it's all about. Corrupt, I

186
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 2: don't think so. Cheating, I don't know about that, But

187
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Sports is nothing more than entertainment

188
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: and people want to be entertained. And then what's worse

189
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 2: than this scouting deal that Michigan is getting slapped around for.

190
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 2: You know what's worse tanking? Tanking in the NBA and

191
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 2: tanking in the NFL. To me, I think that's worse

192
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 2: than cheating or scouting in advance. Maybe I'm nuts, tell

193
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 2: me I'm crazy, but I think that's worse.

194
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, like, there's so many other forms of

195
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 1: cheating and stuff that can be more egregious. People now

196
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: talk about tampering when it comes to I've heard coaches

197
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: have coaches talk to me about this when you go

198
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: at the end of the game and you walk across

199
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: the field to shake other's hands. You have certain assistants

200
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: that are going to players for smaller schools that are

201
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: playing bigger schools, and they're talking to the smaller school

202
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: standouts and saying, hey, man, you had a great game. Man,

203
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: we're going to be looking for a tied end next year,

204
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,839
Speaker 1: like openly recruiting these small school standouts to come to

205
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: bigger schools. And we have seen kind of the trickle

206
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: up effect of guys from FCS programs, guys from Group

207
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: of five programs ending up at Power five schools, and

208
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: some of this is happening on the field that is

209
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: probably a more egregious violation of sportsmanship than some of

210
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: the other stuff. But yeah, I mean, you kind of

211
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: want to have your KKNEATA too. Everyone wants to see

212
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: football played at the highest level, but they don't want

213
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: to see some of the things that kind of happen at.

214
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 4: Those highest levels.

215
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: So it's weird to me that it appears that Big

216
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: ten competitors are out to get Michigan. I just feel

217
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: like they got to step their games up on the field.

218
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: There you go, I want to make you happy right now.

219
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: Duke fell down to your North Carolina tar Heels forty seven,

220
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: forty five, two overtimes, Drake May twenty eight for forty three,

221
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 2: three hundred and forty two yards and a touchdown. That's

222
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 2: a big rivalry down now. You could tell me about

223
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 2: that Duke North Carolina rivalry. And I'm glad to see

224
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: Matt got right back at the action. North Carolina wins

225
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 2: that game.

226
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it was a great game. Had to say it.

227
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: It was a bit of a nail byer, but Duke

228
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: Carolina games can always be like that. Mike Elko has

229
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: done a really good job with the Duke program. They

230
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: play hard, they're smart, they're physical. They did a really

231
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: good job in the red zone in terms of keeping

232
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: Drake Man. That offense bottled up. But Drake May is

233
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: a really good player. And the thing about Drake May,

234
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: he'll be the number one and number two pick. People

235
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: had a chance to see Drake May and Kaylen Williams

236
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: on display last night, and I would say the thing

237
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: about Drake May that you love is composure of the confidence.

238
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: You love the prototypical traits that he brings to the position.

239
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 1: But he has so much where he can grow. I

240
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: would say, as good as he is as a prospect man,

241
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: and he still has some I would say some immaturity

242
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: in his game just from a lack of experience. If

243
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: he goes to the right situation, and I know we

244
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: always talk about, like hey man, you love to have

245
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: him sit and learn and do those things. If he

246
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: goes to the right situation with the right coach, this

247
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 1: guy can be an absolute star in the league. It's

248
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: just about getting him in the right situation, in the

249
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: right spot. And for comparison's sake, like being atar hil

250
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: the comparison between him and Mitchell Trubisky. People that bringing

251
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: it up because Mitchell was kind of like a one

252
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: year starter that ended up being the second overall pick.

253
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: I think they're light years apart in terms of prospect things.

254
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 4: That you look for.

255
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: May's leadership connectivity, but his teammates is different. His experience

256
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 1: is a little different because he's elevated as him, I

257
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: can't say that Trubisky elevated it. So when that comparison

258
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: comes along during the pre draft process. We'll have to

259
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,959
Speaker 1: shoot holes in that and that theory. This dude's a

260
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: really good prospect, right.

261
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: And last, but not least, this was a heartbreaker. Tyler

262
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 2: Loop hits a twenty four yard field goal no time remaining.

263
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 2: Twenty third rank Arizona rallies to beat up on Deon

264
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 2: Sanders and Colorado thirty four to thirty one Saturday. And

265
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: now it's four straight losses for Colorado, and you know,

266
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: the more they lose, and I know he wants to win,

267
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 2: I just afraid that he's not going to stay at Colorado, Dion.

268
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: I hope he does, but I expected more. I mean,

269
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 2: that was a game that had and they missed a

270
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 2: twenty four yard field goal early on, and Arizona comes

271
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 2: back and they hit that twenty four yard field goal

272
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: with no time on the clock and they lose by three.

273
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: A heartbreak. It really was.

274
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 4: Ah yeah, But I mean it's growing pains.

275
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: I don't know many coaches that have been able to

276
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: kind of jump right in and go twelve and zero,

277
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 1: or go to a big bowl game in New Year

278
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: six game or whatever. In fact, the last one that

279
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: I vividly can't remember is maybe when irber Meyer jumped

280
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: from Bowling Green to Utah and had Utah up and going,

281
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: and then he goes from Utah to Florida and those things.

282
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: I think the situations were a little different in terms

283
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: of whatdd he inherited. He inherited a one and eleven team.

284
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: The fact that they are four and six after being

285
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: one and eleven a season ago is a testament to

286
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: his coaching.

287
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 4: The fact that he's lost.

288
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 1: Maybe three one it's either three or four one possession games.

289
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 1: That's part of what happens when you have to turn

290
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: around a program. Before you can win at the highest level,

291
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: you have to learn how to kind of.

292
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 4: To win the other stuff.

293
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: And so we call it like you got to crawl

294
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 1: before you can walk, get a walk before you can run.

295
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: Right now, they're trying to go from crawling to walking,

296
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: which would be going from one and eleven to maybe

297
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: finishing five hundred, six and six and then you would

298
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: hope the next season you go from being maybe a

299
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: six and sixteen to being able to win eight or

300
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: nine games, and then that fourth year is maybe when

301
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: you make that significant jump. People going to take their

302
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: slings and arrows and put it on Dion just because

303
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: of the polarization, the polarizing nature that he brings. But

304
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: now he'll be fine if he understands it, has reasonable

305
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: gos and can recognize the significant growth that this program

306
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: is made.

307
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 2: All right, here's the man. He's Bucket Brooks. Get him

308
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: on XK, get him on Twitter, whatever you want to

309
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 2: call it, at Bucket Brooks or at Andy Furman FSR.

310
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 2: Mike Harmon Hill join us in our number three. But

311
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 2: you can get him right now at Swollen Domo Betty

312
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,320

Speaker 2: Andy Furman. Football Time on Fox Football Sunday right here

345
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio and Colts Patriots nine thirty am

346
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: Eastern time today in Frankfurt, Germany. I tell you what,

347
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 2: if I'm a season ticket hole that we've gone down

348
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 2: that road. I'm really upset losing that home game. But

349
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 2: there's a biggest story here, Buck, and you know what

350
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: it is. This been a lot of buzz, especially in

351
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: New England, after a camera shot last week showing the

352
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: Craft family their suite at Julette Stadium last Sunday and

353
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 2: apparently catching the president of the Patriots, Jonathan Kraft saying

354
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: We're just not good enough, and Belichick's job security. Bill Belichick,

355
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 2: the coach, has been a daily talking point, at least

356
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: in New England, and he was asked Monday. Bill Belichick

357
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: was if he has received assurances from ownership that will

358
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 2: keep his job for the remainder of the season, and

359
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 2: Belichick said, oh, my focus is on getting ready for

360
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 2: the Colts. You wouldn't expect him to say anything else,

361
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 2: but you know, I get it. I think the Colts

362
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 2: probably take them today. They've banged up. Their defense is

363
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: banged up. The Patriots are, but I cannot believe that

364
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 2: they're putting these things out to the public after what

365
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: he's done.

366
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 3: Look, I'm gonna.

367
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: Say this he's the greatest coach NFL history, and now

368
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 2: he's got to worry about his job security. It's this

369
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 2: I would never want to work for those people, the crafts.

370
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 2: It's amazing what they're doing to him.

371
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean everyone is held accountable for their performance.

372
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: I would say the thing about the Patriots that's unique

373
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: is for us, we saw twenty years of dominance. Six

374
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: Super Bowls over a twenty year period, a team that

375
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 1: was always in the final four, always in the conversation

376
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: to go. That's unprecedent. That's an unprecedented level of success

377
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And what happens is after

378
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: you've kind of tasted the nective from the Victory Cup,

379
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: you want to go back.

380
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 4: Unfortunately for the Patriots.

381
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: You know, you lose Tom Brady, you also lose a

382
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 1: look an assortment of a collection of veteran players that

383
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,719
Speaker 1: kind of help get that going, help establish that culture,

384
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: help win at the highest levels. And it's hard to

385
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: replicate that. And the thing that everyone in New England,

386
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: particularly within the organization, they have to examine themselves and look,

387
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick obviously knows how to get us to the

388
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: winner circle. How much patience can we exhibit as he

389
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: kind of works through this. It's hard winning, and I

390
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: think they're beginning to acknowledge how hard it is. Yeah,

391
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: the team isn't good enough, and so what you have

392
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: to do is wait and hope that he is able

393
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: to improve the talent on the roster, make sure they

394
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: understand how they should play, and then they go about

395
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: playing the right way.

396
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 2: Well, the Colts have a top ten offensive line, although

397
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 2: their NFL recorded are the worst scoring defense in the NFL.

398
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 2: I just got to believe because the Patriots are banged up.

399
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 2: I think the Colts take them. I think the Colts

400
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 2: take the Patriots. I hate to say that because I

401
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: hate to see Belichick getting more heat. He doesn't deserve it.

402
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 4: Nah, he doesn't deserve it.

403
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: And I mean everyone should be critical of what this

404
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: team is doing and how they're performing. They're underperformed, they're

405
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: not playing to the standard. But it's look winning. There's

406
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: some ebbs and flows to this game. And what you're

407
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: seeing is that play out in real time? Right?

408
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 2: Well, I tell you we'll see what happens there. Do

409
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: you like the Colts in this game as well?

410
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: Look for me, it's still hard for me to think

411
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: that the Patriots are gonna fall off and can't win.

412
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: So I feel like I have a tendency to pick

413
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 1: them every week, even though I don't have any evidence

414
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: as to why I should pick them. But I'm gonna

415
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: go pick them again. I'mnna pick the Patriots to beat

416
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: the Colts. Maybe the young quarterback play and some of

417
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: that stuff, I'm just gonna I'm gonna go with the Patriots.

418
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 2: I hope you're right now. I mentioned coming into this

419
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 2: segment here like this could be a trap game. I'm

420
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 2: talking about the Texans at the Cincinnati Bengals today. T

421
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: Higgins the receiver, he's gonna be out. Sam Hubbert, he's

422
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 2: out today. Jamar Chase kind of a game day situation.

423
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 2: He's banged up a little bit as a bad back

424
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 2: the Texans. Last week, it was unbelievable. CJ. Stroud sets

425
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 2: a rookie record with four in too seventy yards passing,

426
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 2: tied another record as a rookie five touchdown throws, and

427
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 2: there was a final player of the Week of the game.

428
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 2: Last week. In the thirty nine to thirty seven win

429
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 2: over Tampa Bay, Strouds passed to another rookie, Tank Dell.

430
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 2: This is a surprising Texans team. No one thought they

431
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: would be four and four after eight games, and Stroud's

432
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty seven point eight passer rating is

433
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 2: a rookie record for a single game. They had three

434
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 2: players Bill Brown, Dalton Schultz, and Dell top one hundred

435
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 2: receiving guards. This is not gonna be an easy task

436
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 2: for the Bengals today, although they're favored and I think

437
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: they should win, but with the injury factor and the Texans,

438
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 2: basically this could be one of those trap games.

439
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be a trap game. But man, I

440
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 1: just love c J. Strout and I love everything that

441
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: c J. Strout has brought to the table, like his poise,

442
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: his confidence they're feeding off of, and the fact that

443
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: they're doing I would say with maybe lesser guys, lesser

444
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 1: lesser players at the position than others. Look, man, give

445
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: him credit. This is a team that is really scrappy

446
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: to scrap him on both ends. So I'm gonna take

447
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: the Texans in this one.

448
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 2: Really, you know, is that to go to the injury

449
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 2: factor in Cincinnati? You just think they're just a better

450
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 2: team right now coming out there. They got the momentum, No.

451
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: I don't think they're a better team, obviously. I think

452
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: Cincinnati is good. I think they have it rolling. But

453
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: here's where you have in the in the in the league,

454
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: every week we see an upset, we see an unlikely result,

455
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying that this might be the week

456
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 1: that the Cincinnati being was just go down, not due

457
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: to anything in terms of the team being better for

458
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: some time. The ball just doesn't bounce that way. So

459
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 1: this would be my upset specialistic.

460
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know what, Cincinnati is playing almost era

461
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 2: free football, which has to stop at some point in time.

462
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 2: You just can't do that every week. Entering this week,

463
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 2: which is Week ten, But entering last week, their offense

464
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 2: had just six turnovers and a plus seven point differential,

465
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 2: which is unbelievable in the National Football League. I mean,

466
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 2: it's got to stop sometime, and I gotta believe, you know,

467
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 2: losing a guy like Sam Hubbard, losing t Higgins, you know,

468
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: it puts their offense at risk right now, and their

469
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 2: running game is not up to par. You get like

470
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 2: Burrow as the second leading rusher on this football team.

471
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 2: I don't think that's a good thing. I really don't.

472
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 2: You got Joe Mixon basically is their leading rusher. But

473
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,640
Speaker 2: he's only had you know, like one hundred and twenty

474
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: six attempts and he's only gained like four hundred and

475
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: some of the yards for seventy four to eighty yards.

476
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 2: The offense is not balanced. I get it. You got

477
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: a quarterback like Joe Burrow, You're going to pass, There's

478
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 2: no doubt about that. But I think the successful that

479
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: offense has to be a little more balanced.

480
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, the offense has to be balanced, Like, you can't

481
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: do it. They're not gonna be able to live on

482
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow throwing it all over the yard, throwing it

483
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: fifty plus times against the elite teams in the AFC as.

484
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 4: They kind of try and run through the gauntlet.

485
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: They got to get more, they have to get better,

486
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: and we'll see how Zach Taylor is able to kind

487
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: of get it out of this team. But right now,

488
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they're playing well because they're not turning the

489
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: ball over and Joe Burrow is playing at the best,

490
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: playing the best that we've seen this season.

491
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm going to go back and you probably

492
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 2: remember this game when the Texans beat Jacksonville at Jacksonville.

493
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: I was like thirty seven to seventeen. They gave Trevor

494
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 2: Lawrence a hard time, So there's no doubt in my

495
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 2: mind there's a possibility that that defense could give Joe

496
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 2: Burrow a hard time as well.

497
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: Today they definitely can and haven't seen it firsthand. See

498
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 1: this strout and this team is a lot better. Man,

499
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: if you let them hang around the game, they will

500
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: find a way to win it. They've done it, They've

501
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: done a repeated lead. They're sitting at five hundred because

502
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: of their ability to do it. It's one of those

503
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: things that you have to give them credit for just

504
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: being scrappy and just know that when you play this team,

505
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: the game is going to be far more competitive than

506
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: many envision.

507
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 3: Right.

508
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what. Forget about the talent situation

509
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 2: in the Houston Texans. It's one of those situations where

510
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 2: a coach comes in there with that I hate to

511
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 2: use the term, with his sort of culture and changes

512
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: it similar to what happened in Detroit with Dan Campbell. Really,

513
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 2: I mean the new coach in Texas with the Texans,

514
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 2: I think he's basically turned it around with his culture

515
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 2: and they believe in him. I think that the talent level,

516
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 2: and maybe I'm mistaken here, Buck, you can help me.

517
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 2: I don't think there's that much of a difference in

518
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 2: talent from one team to another. Yeah, I get it,

519
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 2: some teams have not won many games. I mean, Carolina's

520
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: won one game. But I think sometimes a coach can

521
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 2: make a difference, and we saw that last year with Detroit.

522
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 2: They was like one in six starting the season. Campbell

523
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 2: came in there and I think that they started believing

524
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: in him. The same talent, the same players, but they

525
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 2: turned it around.

526
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, they absolutely turned it around.

527
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 1: And Dan Campbell certainly did a really good job of

528
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: changing the persona, changing the energy, changing the expectation. But

529
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: more importantly, he made his team a gritty, a grizzled team,

530
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: a physical.

531
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,880
Speaker 4: Team, and you have a chance to win.

532
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: You can win a lot of games with physicality, toughness

533
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: playing together, and the Detroit Lions are showing that. But

534
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: they also have assembled a really good team to go

535
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: with their quarterback, Jery Golf, and that has helped him.

536
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 4: But think about how you started. We talked about exhibiting patients.

537
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Think about how bad the lines were when he started,

538
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: and how those first two seasons first season and a

539
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 1: half went before it kind of kicked in for them

540
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: at the end of last year. Since the middle of

541
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: the last season, they've been a dominant team. Like you

542
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: look at the record, arguably one of the best records.

543
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: It's not arguably, it's without a doubt. It's one of

544
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: the best records in the league. So give them credit,

545
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 1: no doubt about that.

546
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks, I mean defermer. We are Fox Football

547
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 2: Sunday on Fox Bots Ready now, this man is a

548
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 2: one man wrecking crew that's coming up next on Fox

549
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 2: Live from the tyrack dot Com studio. But first our

550
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 2: own one man wreckord, Kevin Wyre with all your sports.

551
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, the San Francisco forty nine ers. We have a

552
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 3: couple of conflicting reports regarding they're all Pro tackle Trent Williams.

553
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 3: He's listed as questionable with his ankle injury. Adam Schefter

554
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 3: said that he is expected to play. He cited his

555
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 3: own source. However, Ian Rappaport citing his source, saying that

556
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: it's gonna be an uphill battle for Williams to be

557
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: able to play today against the Jaguars. He will work

558
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 3: out pregame. According to Rapaport, but he says it will

559
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 3: be a challenge. A couple other updates from Ian Rappaport.

560
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 3: Commander's wide receiver Curtis Samuel is expected to play today.

561
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,199
Speaker 3: He was limited all week with a toe injury, listed

562
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 3: as questionable. Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase is considered fifty

563
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: to fifty at best to play today. He's been dealing

564
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 3: with a back injury, and Rapaport's saying that while there

565
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 3: is no structural damage, he is in pain and it's

566
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 3: unclear how functional he will be, but they're gonna keep

567
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 3: the door open for him playing until game time. Vikings

568
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 3: tight end TJ. Hawkinson is expected to play. He's listed

569
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 3: as questionable with a rib injury. That's according to am Pella. Sero.

570
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 3: Wide receiver kJ Osborne has con clear the concussion protocol. However,

571
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 3: it doesn't mean he'll play. It was a significant hook

572
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 3: he took and Minnesota does want to check in on

573
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 3: him today to see if he can go. Ravens wide

574
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 3: running back Heaton Mitchell, who tweaked his hamstring earlier this week,

575
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 3: but he was a full participant in practice on Friday.

576
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: He has expected to play today. Pro Bowl quarterback Marlin

577
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 3: Humphrey is optimistic about playing, but he does need to

578
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 3: clear a pregame warm up. And then we have some

579
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 3: scores from college football yesterday, all of the top four

580
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 3: teams in the playoff rankings. One that includes top ranked

581
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 3: Ohio State and easy win thirty three against Michigan State

582
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: Number three Michigan on the road at number ten Penn

583
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 3: State without Jim Harbass suspended by the Big Ten for

584
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 3: his final three regular season games. The Wolverine's getting the

585
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 3: win twenty four to fifteen, So that sets up a

586
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 3: pivotal top three showdown in ann Arbor a couple of

587
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 3: weeks from now. Number four Florida State a good time

588
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 3: with it against Miami, but they do hold off the

589
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 3: Hurricanes twenty seven to twenty and number two Georgia despite

590
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,360
Speaker 3: being in a top ten matchup with the whole miss

591
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 3: they made it look like it was an FCS team

592
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 3: they were playing, fifty two to seventeen. They beat the

593
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 3: Rebels back to you guys, all right, thank.

Speaker 2: Saints and the Vikings. And I said, this guy's a

608
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 2: one man wrecking crew. I'm talking about Taysom Hill. Last

609
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 2: week's twenty four to seventeen went over the Bears. He

610
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 2: had a two yard touchdown cat, a three yard touchdown catch,

611
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 2: and a team high fifty two rushing yards. Fifth player

612
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 2: in the league history with at least ten touchdown passes,

613
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 2: ten touchdown runs, and ten touchdown receptions in his career.

614
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 2: Unreal and the Saints right now first place in the

615
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 2: NFC South. Who would have Thunken. Who would have thunken Bunkie?

616
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 3: Really?

617
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, A couple of things.

618
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: Tasty Mill deserves a lot of credit for being one

619
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,880
Speaker 1: of the game's ultimate utility players. To think about where

620
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: he has come from, coming out of byu being a

621
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: quarterback that was off injured to being one of the

622
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 1: more dynamic weapons that the league has seen. Created the

623
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: Saints for fully maximizing his talents, using him as a quarterback,

624
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: using him as a tight end, wide receiver, running back.

625
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: He's given them kind of that added dimension to the

626
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,959
Speaker 1: offense that they've needed over the years. His physicality and toughness,

627
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: particularly as a runner, has enhanced a running game that

628
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: has been anchored by Alvin Kamar. But I mean, the

629
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: only thing that is really hindered or hurt Taysom millis

630
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: he's just not good enough to be a four time quarterback.

631
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: And so it kind of look he got that parton shot,

632
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: that parton gift from Sean Payton, paid him a big

633
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: time deal, gave him a big time deal at quarterback money.

634
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: But he's been a nice weapon and the Saints are

635
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: sitting pretty Derek Carr comes over. I don't know how

636
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: much Derek Carr improved the team, but he kind of

637
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: stabilized the quarterback position a bit. They're sitting at the

638
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: top of the NFC South and they should be. This

639
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: is a team that has a loaded veteran Leyden defense

640
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: with big time all stars to get playmakers Gaalure on offense,

641
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave, someone knows as Michael Thomas, who's

642
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: dealing with his own off the field issue. But it

643
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: seems talented enough to go. I don't know how much

644
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: damage they can do in the tournament, but they're certainly

645
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: good enough to be a thorn in some of the

646
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: top team side.

647
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 2: Oh, they're playing in Minnesota today. Both teams are five

648
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 2: and four. The Vikings have a four game winning streak,

649
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 2: is the best active streak in the NFL right now,

650
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 2: and they have a one game lead in the conference's

651
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 2: final wild card Berth And I tell you right now,

652
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,479
Speaker 2: it's hard to believe. You got to give a lot

653
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: of credit to the coach, coach O'Connell because they have

654
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 2: no one. I mean, Kirk Cousins has gone, Jefferson's gone,

655
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: justin Jefferson, So I mean they've really put it together.

656
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: You got to give a lot of credit to their

657
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 2: coach and the fact that the game is in Minnesota.

658
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: I just think they still have better talent than the Saints.

659
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 2: I think the Vikings take this game today.

660
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

661
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 4: I like the Vikings.

662
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: And one of the reasons I'll be big on the

663
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: Vikings because of the job that Brian Flores does.

664
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 4: And continues to do with this defense.

665
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: They bring pressure all over the field and that pressure

666
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: wears people down, forces people to turn the ball over.

667
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with them. I'm with you. I think

668
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: that four game Street deals to Fox.

669
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 2: Yes, there you go.

670
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 3: All right.

671
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 2: Now, we got the Packers at the Steelers, and you

672
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 2: can talk about pressure. The Steelers have twenty six sacks.

673
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 2: The Steelers have sixteen takeaways this year, and I think

674
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 2: that's gonna be good enough to win. To give Nigie

675
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 2: Harris and Jalen Warren, they rush for twenty seven times

676
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 2: for one hundred and fifty seven yards. They had a

677
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 2: thirty two more rushing yards last year. Last week that

678
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 2: was when they beat the Titans. I just think the

679
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 2: Packers are in trouble today against the five and three Steelers,

680
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 2: and they're surprising me. They really are. I mean, the

681
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 2: Steelers right now undefeated against teams within their division. And

682
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 2: that's a tough division. That division would end today, all

683
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 2: those teams will go to the playoffs. But the Steelers

684
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 2: right now making a run for it. And I'm gonna

685
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 2: beat up on the Packers today.

686
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, their defenses is outstanding. The magic number to watch

687
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: is twenty two. When the Pittsburgh Steelers are able to

688
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: hold their opponents under twenty two, they really have a

689
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: really good chance of winning. It's some remarkable record that

690
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: they have in the Tomlin era. When they're able to

691
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: keep the score down offensively, they just need to manufacture

692
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: enough plays to get over that number. Whether it's getting

693
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: the ball to George Pickens, Deontay Johnson, find a way

694
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: to get Naja Harris off in the running game. They

695
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,479
Speaker 1: have to find a way to kind of score points.

696
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: This is a team that is really opportunistic. They feast

697
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: off your turnovers and your mistakes, your self inflicted mistakes,

698
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: and the kicking game flips the field, gives them short feels.

699
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,479
Speaker 1: It makes it easier for them to win. And so

700
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: the thing for the Packers playing against the Steilers is

701
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: they can't beat themselves big plays, turnovers, penalties eras on

702
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,959
Speaker 1: special teams. They have to avoid that part of it

703
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: and make the Steelers beat them straight up. If you

704
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: can get the Steelers to have to play a straight

705
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: up game, hard for them to win. But if you're

706
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: gonna give it to them and give them opportunities, they're

707
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: gonna take advantage.

708
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 4: Of it for sure.

709
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 2: Well, there's no doubt about that. And now of defense,

710
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 2: obviously going to give Jordan Love a hard time. Jordan

711
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 2: Love has thrown eight interceptions in eight games, and honestly,

712
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 2: with that Steelers defense, i'd see maybe one or two

713
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 2: interceptions today. The Steelers are three and one when getting

714
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 2: two or more takeaways this year. They're tough. You know,

715
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: when I watched the stealer team play, you know, when

716
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 2: the seasons started, I thought it was gonna be Cleveland

717
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 2: and Baltimore or Baltimore and Cleveland won two. Maybe Cincinnati

718
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: thrown in there. And now Joe Borrow's healthy, Now he

719
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 2: wasn't healthy early on, but I didn't even count the

720
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 2: Steelers as a possibility as a team going far or

721
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: being a threat in that division. And I tell you what,

722
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 2: I come back and I apologize to coach Mike Tomlin

723
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 2: This guy's a hell of a coach. He's a Hall

724
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 2: of Fame coach. And look, he's never had a losing season.

725
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 2: I remember last year going into the final game of

726
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 2: the season and all the stories surrounding the Piposar Steelers

727
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 2: was that he's never had a losing season. And he

728
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 2: still has never had a losing season. I just think

729
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 2: that he does more with less every single year. And

730
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,479
Speaker 2: he's one hell of a coach.

731
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 4: He is a great coach.

732
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: His coaching separates him from others. He can take whatever situation,

733
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: what every team he has and make them competitive.

734
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 4: And that's the sign of a good coach.

735
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: A team that may not have a level talent, but

736
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: you're able to kind of get a level performance from them. Man,

737
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,719
Speaker 1: that's just a testament to the coaching. Give him credit.

738
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: This team is scrappy, They're always in it. They find

739
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: a way to win. And one of the trades that

740
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: I love about this team is just so resourceful.

741
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 4: They're gonna be a problem.

742
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: We talked about that AFC North is the best division

743
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: in football. All four teams are above five hundred, all

744
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: of them are current hold in playoff berth. So like

745
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: it or not, they find a way to get it done.

746
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: And all those teams have flaws, but they they're coaching

747
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: allows them to have a chance to kind of maybe

748
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: get to the tournament.

749
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that thing is gonna really iron out and

750
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 2: kind of stabilize the next couple of weeks because next

751
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 2: week Pittsburgh is at Cleveland and the following week Pittsburgh's

752
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,240
Speaker 2: at Cincinnati. So you know, things are gonna take shape

753
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 2: in the next two weeks in that division. But they're

754
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 2: gonna be some great football games. I just hope everybody

755
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,240
Speaker 2: stays healthy because I don't want to see one team

756
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 2: beating another team because the player or two was not playing.

757
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 2: Like today in Cincinnati, they got a couple of players

758
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 2: on the ship or of the game. I realized that.

759
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 2: But I want to see everybody be playing and everybody healthy.

760
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you certainly want everyone to be available.

761
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: I mean, the game is always better when it's best

762
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: on best, good on good, and so we do want

763
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: to see they won't see everyone healthy.

764
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 4: I'm able to do their thing.

00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 6: Are you ready, Bucky Brooks?

780
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do it.

781
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: Here we go. Okay, Coach of the Year for first

782
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 2: half choices and I'm gonna give you the choices I

783
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,879
Speaker 2: have And if you think I'm crazy, you could change

784
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 2: the choices. Mike McDaniel the Miami Dolphins, Dan Campbell of

785
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions, and John Harbaugh of the Baltimore Ravens.

786
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 2: Your choice for first half coach of the Year. Ye,

787
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks.

788
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: This is tough because all the guys that you mentioned

789
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 1: have been great, But I'm gonna go with Dan Campbell

790
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: of the Detroit Lions. The Detroit Lions we thought would

791
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: be a playoff contender. I don't know if we thought

792
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: they would be a title contender, not doctor Kansas City

793
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs in Week one, having a team that has pummeled opponents.

794
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 4: Thereafter, yes, they had to hit.

795
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: Up against the Baltimore Ravens, but I'm gonna go with

796
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions coach Dan.

797
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 2: Campbell, you know what, I'm with you on that because

798
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions are playing with expectations for the first

799
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 2: time in years. So I agree there. As far as

800
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel's concern with the Miami Dolphins, you know, basically

801
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 2: they're six and three, but they're owing three against the

802
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 2: only contenders that they played. They fell forty eight twenty

803
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: to Buffalo, thirty one seventeen to Philadelphia, and last week

804
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 2: they lost to Kansas City twenty one fourteen. So yeah,

805
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 2: six and three, but against the big boys they're owing three,

806
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 2: and Harbaugh, you know there's a possibility there there's seven

807
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 2: and two. They beat up Seattle pretty good. The other

808
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 2: Day thirty seven to three in Week nine, but they

809
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 2: ranked eighth in offensive X backdated points added per play.

810
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: So you know, I think people thought they'd be decent,

811
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 2: But I think you're right about Dan Campbell. Bigger surprise there. Okay,

812
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 2: the MVP this year in the National Football League for

813
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 2: midterm grades will not be won by a quarterback. I

814
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 2: don't think that's my take. Tyreek Hill are the choices

815
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 2: AJ Brown or Miles Garrett.

816
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,919
Speaker 1: Hmm, that's a good and I would say Tyreek Hill

817
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: right now, Tyreik Hill is on pace to go over

818
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: two thousand yards.

819
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 4: We saw Cooper Cup do it, but this would be

820
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 4: a little different.

821
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: The way that Tyreek Hill accomplishes defeat, He's he makes

822
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: their offense nearly impossible to defend. His speed, the way

823
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: to use it horizontally and vertically stretches the defense from

824
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: inline to inline, sideline to sideline.

825
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 4: So Tyrek Hill to me, is a choice, even though

826
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 4: I love what A. J.

827
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: Brown has done and added to the philadelph Eagles.

828
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 2: Right Tyreek Hill one thousand and seventy six yards for

829
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. It ranked sixth in NFL history the first

830
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 2: nine games of a season. Okay, but right behind him.

831
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 2: As you mentioned, aj Brown, one thousand and five yards

832
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 2: through nine games with the Eagles ranks twentieth in league history.

833
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 2: And as far as Miles Garrett is concerned, no defensive

834
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 2: player has won MVP Armis from the Associated Press or

835
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: from the Pro Football Runners of America since Lawrence Taylor

836
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 2: did it way back in nineteen eighty six. And this

837
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 2: could very well be the year for Miles Garrett. It's

838
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 2: could be tough. But do you believe that perhaps maybe

839
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 2: a quarterback will not be an MVP.

840
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 4: I think it'd be tough.

841
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 1: I think down the stretch you'll see a quarterback emerge.

842
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: I mean, if you continue to see Joe Burrow do

843
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: what he's done the last couple of weeks at Cincinnati,

844
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: climbs back to promising Lamar Jackson what they're able to do.

845
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,399
Speaker 1: You think about Lamar Jackson ranking in the top twenty

846
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: amongst rushers, leading the league in completion percentage in those

847
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 1: things at the end of the day, a quarterback with

848
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: Windy Ward, but it's nice to talk about other positions

849
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 1: right now.

850
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 2: No doubt about that offensive rookie of the year you

851
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 2: mentioned his name early on today. I don't think there's

852
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 2: a there's an argument on that, and you know who

853
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 2: he is. He's a quarterback.

854
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: Seed. CJ. Stroud is absolutely the one. I think this

855
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: is a runaway.

856
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 4: It won't be close.

857
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: Bryce young, he's not being able to get it together.

858
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 2: Uh.

859
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 4: C J.

860
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: Stroud is the only young quarterback that is doing. But

861
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: I say, keep it eye Will Levis. He's flashed when

862
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: he's had his opportunity. Maybe Will Levis can kind of

863
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: jump in the race and do.

864
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 2: Something and maybe pookin the coua perhaps, h yeah. Maybe.

865
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 2: I mean he's he's behind now Tyreek killing A J.

866
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: Brown in receiving yards. But I guess Stroud, you got

867
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 2: to say he's put the Texans on his back and

868
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,359
Speaker 2: they're four and four and he's given the Texans hope

869
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 2: which everybody, perhaps at the start of the season never

870
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,959
Speaker 2: thought they would. All Right, So we both agree CJ.

871
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 2: Stroud off as a Rookie of the year defensive rookie,

872
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 2: I say tackle Jalen Carter for the Eagles or maybe

873
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 2: even throwing the witherspoon maybe from Seattle. Perhaps.

874
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a good one. I think to come down

875
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 1: to jay Len Carter being able to produce more splash plays.

876
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 1: He certainly has a lot of attention. He has been

877
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 1: able to be a disruptive force at the point of attack.

878
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: He's good with Aspoon is also a young player that

879
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 1: is playing really, really well.

880
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 2: All Right, I think this is a no brainer. The

881
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 2: comeback Player of the Year has to be DeMar Hamlin

882
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. What he overcame really and truly

883
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 2: is a miracle. It's incredible.

884
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 4: It is incredible.

885
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 1: Just for him to be able to get back on

886
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: the field is a major, major win for himlet it's

887
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: a major win for the Buffalo Bills community.

888
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 4: So yeah, he certainly is deserving.

889
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 2: And more than that, he established a scholarship name for

890
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 2: the ten medical professionals who helped save his life in Cincinnati.

891
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 2: List year, what a gesture, what a gesture, and look,

892
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 2: and any other year it wouldn't be him, and maybe

893
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,919
Speaker 2: Bree swallowed the Jets, but it's definitely him, all right.

894
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,640

904
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 2: rolling right now, and I want to take a quick

905
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 2: look if you don't mind some NFL top rookies. The

906
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 2: first one, really, it's a no brainer. Really, his quarterback

907
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 2: a CJ. Straud. This guy has just one interception on

908
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 2: two hundred and seventy nine pairs attempts. The only other

909
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 2: quarterback will comes close to that efficiency is Lamar Jackson.

910
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 2: Three interceptions are two fifty three. So we got CJ.

911
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 1: Strout.

912
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 2: I'm sure we both agree that he's basically going to

913
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 2: be a top rookie this year, no doubt about that.

914
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, yeah, he's absolutely gonna be tab rookey.

915
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 2: Let's get a little tougher and a little tougher for

916
00:41:55,960 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 2: you right now. Running back, but John Robinson, Jamar Gibbs, Devon.

917
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: Hn has been the one that has kind of been

918
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: a difference maker. Even though he's light, he's in a rotation.

919
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: He's the one whose speed has kind of been felt.

920
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: B John Robinson has been a little bit of a disappointment,

921
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 1: not necessarily his talent, but in terms of the Falcons

922
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 1: not getting him the ball.

923
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 4: So I go that right.

924
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: But the guy who can get hot down the stretch,

925
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: Jamar gives from the Detroit lines to begin to figure

926
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: out how to utilize him, we begin to see him

927
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: make a bigger impact on the game.

928
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 2: Thought that about that wide receiver Pooka, Nakua z Flowers,

929
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 2: Jordan Addison or Josh downs.

930
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: Man. Jordan Addison is the one that's coming on like

931
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: game Buss has stepped in for Justin Jefferson and has

932
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: taken off, and so I'm excited to see what it

933
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: looks like when he kind of gets it back together.

934
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: Pookao certainly deserves being that conversation because of all the numbers,

935
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: but Addison, his impact and his ability to be a

936
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: true number one, he is the one that's called my well.

937
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 2: Addison has seven touchdown receptions that have him tied now

938
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 2: with Stefan Diggs, the second in the NFL. One shy

939
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 2: of Tyreek Hill. So it's gonna be a tough one

940
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,240
Speaker 2: over there, but that'll open up, it really will. And last,

941
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 2: but not least a tight end. I think that's a

942
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 2: no brainer. With the Detroit Lion, Sam Laporter.

943
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam Laport has been great. He's been great. He

944
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: stepped in the second round pick, has given them that

945
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: middle of the field presence that they needed. We thinking

946
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: about Amara Saint Brown being on the outside. But Sam

947
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 1: Laporter has quickly become one of Jered Goff's most trusted

948
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: targets in key moments.

949
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:37,360
Speaker 4: Been terrific.

950
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: Fine, So you talk about the draft class, Jamier, give

951
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: Sam Laporter. Both those guys have stepped up right away

952
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 1: and being contributors.

953
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 2: And Laporter has broke Detroit's franchise record for catches by

954
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 2: a rookie tight end forty three. He's currently on a

955
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 2: seventeen game pace for ninety one catches, nine hundred and

956
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 2: twenty two yards and eight touchdowns. So there we go,

957
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,719
Speaker 2: and we'll put that in a little notebook here to

958
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 2: see the end of the year. In fact, these are

959
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 2: the award winners. I'm sure they would be. Now back

960
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 2: to the ball games at hand, and we've got the

961
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 2: Titans three and five at the Buccaneers three and five,

962
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 2: and the Titans quarterback Will Levis he's got to, basically

963
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 2: to win this game, exploit the holes in the secondary.

964
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 2: That's the same quarterback CJ. Stroud found against those same

965
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 2: Buccaneers last week. That's all he's going to do if

966
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 2: he can do it. Tampa Bay is good against the run,

967
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 2: and can Derrick Henry get it going against that good

968
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 2: defense against the run?

969
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 1: No, I mean you already talked about it. It comes

970
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: down to Will Lof's ability to make place against a

971
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay defense. The difference is Will Lovs is not

972
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 1: quite as polished as c J. Strou but he has

973
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: some big play capabilities. This offense looks differently when he's

974
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: in the game, so it'd be interesting to see how

975
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 1: he attacks a very complex and aggressive Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense.

976
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 2: So what I'm hearing from Bucky Brooks is that you

977
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 2: sort of like the Titans to win this ball game.

978
00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. I do kind of like the Titans. I think

979
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 1: found it where I think they have a lot of

980
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: confidence in the young player.

981
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 4: So you're giving the.

982
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 2: Titans, and I think this has maybe a mental aspect.

983
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 2: Look they've been terrible at home, and the game is

984
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 2: at home in Tampa. But they're coming off one of

985
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 2: the maybe one of the more demoralizing losses of the

986
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 2: entire NFL last year when they lost last week thirty

987
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 2: nine thirty seven to Houston. That was demoralizing, it really was.

988
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 2: I think that stays with you, doesn't it. I think

989
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 2: players remember that and it's tough to get that garbage

990
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 2: out of your mind. I think that affects you as

991
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 2: a ballplayer.

992
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think it has an effect on you,

993
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: for sure. It definitely has an impact when you can't

994
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 1: get those losses in those things out your mind. But

995
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: what you hope is that as a professional you can

996
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: kind of flip the switch and move on, get to

997
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:47,319
Speaker 1: the next thing.

998
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 4: We'll see how to handle it all.

999
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 2: Right now, this is your team that forty nine ers

1000
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 2: are playing at the Jacks today. Why receive a Deebo

1001
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 2: Samuel He's out Trent Williams the offensive tackle. I mean,

1002
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 2: there's some questions on him. Do you know if Williams

1003
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 2: is going to play or not today? I don't know. No.

1004
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: I think it's a game time decision. They may not

1005
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: know until right before kickoff. When they takeing me goes

1006
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: out and he warms up and does all that other stuff.

1007
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 1: So we'll see it's a huge, huge deal, huge situation

1008
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 1: for them. If he doesn't play Man, it just changes everything,

1009
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: you know.

1010
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 2: You talk about these two teams, certainly the forty nine

1011
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: Ers a five and three, the Jaguars are six and two,

1012
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 2: and you could easily say this that these are two

1013
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 2: teams basically right now going in opposite directions. And the

1014
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers have lost three in a row, and

1015
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 2: in those games they just scored seventeen points in those

1016
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 2: three straight losses. So they got to turn it around.

1017
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's injuries or rock parties just

1018
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 2: not getting it done any longer. I don't know. I

1019
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 2: can't put a finger on it. Maybe you can, no.

1020
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, and most good teams you have

1021
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 1: these ebs and flows where your team is clicking on

1022
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,319
Speaker 1: all cylinders. They have some injuries that have kept some

1023
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,720
Speaker 1: of their stars out the line up. And brock Perty

1024
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 1: is one. When he has the full compliment of weapons, Man,

1025
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: he's as dangerous as it comes. He also has more

1026
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: film on him and so as he continue u to play,

1027
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 1: more teams are beginning to get comfortable and they adapt

1028
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 1: and adjust to what he does. The role of that

1029
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: Cayl Shanahan has to play. He has to make sure

1030
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 1: that the quarterback is always comfortable. So whether that means

1031
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 1: tweaking the scheme, adding some wrinkles and some nuance to

1032
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 1: what they're doing, look, it may be necessary, but this

1033
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: team is still the most feared team in the NFC.

1034
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,719
Speaker 1: Their physicality, their toughness, their skill. A few teams can

1035
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 1: match that. So I expect this team to get it

1036
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: going at some point, hoping it's not against my Jaguars today,

1037
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: but this would be a great measuring stick game for

1038
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,439
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, even though they hate hearing that that they're

1039
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: going to be measured against another team, they feel like

1040
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: they've already there.

1041
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:39,839
Speaker 4: Well, if they knock off the Niners, I.

1042
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: Think more people around the country begin to kind of

1043
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,720
Speaker 1: recognize them as one of the top teams in the NFL.

1044
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I certainly are they are one of the top teams.

1045
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 2: But I think that we have to remember that the

1046
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 2: addition of Chase Young's defensive end to the forty nine

1047
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:53,760
Speaker 2: just got to help that defenses, which is a pretty

1048
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,319
Speaker 2: tough defense anyway. But Chase Young is going to be

1049
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 2: a factor. But you know how difficult is it for

1050
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 2: some guy who just coming over to a new team

1051
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:06,359
Speaker 2: in midseason to get involved with that defense or any position. Really,

1052
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 2: how difficult is that to make that transition.

1053
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 1: That won't be that bit of a transition because he

1054
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 1: plays a D line position where seaball getball. There are

1055
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,759
Speaker 1: a few things that he had to pick up in

1056
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 1: terms of their stunts in games and where he's responsible,

1057
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 1: which Slane's he's responsible for.

1058
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,240
Speaker 4: When they blessing those things.

1059
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,400
Speaker 1: But a lot of times like an edge defender like

1060
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 1: him and you just let him play and the thing

1061
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,399
Speaker 1: that he should benefit from and being in San Francisco, one,

1062
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 1: he plays opposite Nick Bosa, so he's gonna get a

1063
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,799
Speaker 1: lot of one on one attention. But the other thing, man,

1064
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: their scheme is one that you can play fast, you

1065
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 1: can play free, you can just go and play in

1066
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 1: attack mode. That's exactly how anybody and everybody should want

1067
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 1: to play, right.

1068
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 2: I would say this that you're Jaguars today, And I'm

1069
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 2: not saying this because stats you a team, but I

1070
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 2: think they're gonna win this ball game. And I look

1071
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 2: at the schedule coming after today, they got San Francisco. Obviously,

1072
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,840
Speaker 2: they got Tennessee and I think that's a beatable game. Houston,

1073
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 2: obviously Cincinnati is gonna be a toughie, but that's going

1074
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: to be at home, and that's a night game. Then Cleveland,

1075
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 2: Baltimore too tough. He's there, Tampa Bay Carolina and Tennessee again.

1076
00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 2: You know this team basically is playoff bound and again

1077
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 2: they went today. That's a tremendous confidence builder right there.

1078
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 2: But you got to tell me about the emergence Eaton

1079
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 2: as of what I ever thought he'd be in the

1080
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 2: National Football League. Five hundred and eighty three total yards

1081
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,359
Speaker 2: right now is at the offensive line as he come

1082
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,320
Speaker 2: to become an NFL player. Right now, what has turned

1083
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 2: him around?

1084
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 1: Well, you got to remember he missed his first season.

1085
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: He had a foot injury, so he didn't play his

1086
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: first season. Last year was basically his rookie season. And

1087
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: now he's beginning to come into his own. He's coming

1088
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: into his own because the kid is it's tough. He

1089
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,399
Speaker 1: gets on the edges. He has the ability to kind

1090
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,240
Speaker 1: of make it happen in space. He's an underrated receiver.

1091
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: They found a way to kind of get him involved

1092
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 1: in the passing game, getting the ball in space, and

1093
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 1: he's a really good player. And if you ask me, really,

1094
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: he's been the straw that stirs the dream offensively for

1095
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 1: this team through the first part of the year. His

1096
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,880
Speaker 1: steady production on the ground has kind of stabilized an

1097
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,760
Speaker 1: offense that has underperform a little bit based on outside expectations.

1098
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: We thought this team was going to be explosive and

1099
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 1: dynamic with Calvin Ridley coming on board. It has just

1100
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,799
Speaker 1: kind of taken them awhile to hit their stride. The

1101
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: one thing that has been their saving grace has been

1102
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 1: Travis Etien being a very productive runner on the ground.

1103
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 2: You know, you hit the nail right on the head

1104
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 2: because if you look at the receptions and the receivers

1105
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,359
Speaker 2: in this ball club, Ridley has thirty three receptions, eight

1106
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 2: ten has twenty seven. So this basically eightn is is

1107
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,840
Speaker 2: a dual offensive threat running the football one hundred and

1108
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,359
Speaker 2: fifty one at tens for five hundred and eighty three

1109
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 2: yards seven touchdowns. What I'm surprised right now is Trevor

1110
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 2: Lawrence has not thrown more touchdowns. He's got nine touchdowns,

1111
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 2: but he got four. Its his completion percentage is almost

1112
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 2: sixteen nine percent. But seriously, I thought that they go

1113
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 2: to the air more and he had more touchdowns in

1114
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 2: the air. You know, you've got a guy that etn

1115
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 2: He's got seven touchdowns just running the football.

1116
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the end. Is a guy who just finds

1117
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: a way to get it done. And as did, Jaguars

1118
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 1: continue to kind of gain recognition for the good job

1119
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: that Doug Peterson and the staff are doing. More people

1120
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: are being the cast there Arizona. It's the end, and

1121
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: the running back position is in a bit of a

1122
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 1: transition throughout the league. Guys are going away from the

1123
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,280
Speaker 1: old school running back, and that's just a hammer to

1124
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:26,360
Speaker 1: a guy that's a little more dynamic, a guy that

1125
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,120
Speaker 1: can give you a little bit as a receiver as

1126
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: well as a runner.

1127
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 4: He fits the bill. He is there, he's a big.

1128
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 1: Time playmaker, and so a lot of excitement, a lot

1129
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 1: of buzz around what he could do at the next level.

1130
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 2: Well and speaking the quarterbacks, to look at brock Party

1131
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 2: right now. Certainly the guy was the last guy picked

1132
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 2: in the draft. No one even expected him to be

1133
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 2: playing little one starting for the San Francisco forty nine ers,

1134
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,240
Speaker 2: twelve touchdowns, five interceptions, but over the list several weeks

1135
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 2: he's been throwing I mean, getting a lot of mistakes.

1136
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 2: I mean, is this the brock Party that we expected?

1137
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 2: Is he going back to form? What is this situation?

1138
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 2: How is brock Party of a sudden now not the

1139
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 2: same brock Party we saw before? You mentioned there's a

1140
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 2: lot of film on it. Maybe that's a factor, but

1141
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 2: maybe he was hurt. I don't know, but we're seeing

1142
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 2: what we believe to be the person who should be

1143
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 2: the last person picked in the draft not playing the

1144
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:15,359
Speaker 2: way brock Party was.

1145
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 4: No, he's not playing that.

1146
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 1: The league is tough to be great in the league,

1147
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 1: and it's one of the reasons why you got to

1148
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 1: have great appreciation for the Pat Mahomes to Joe Burrows

1149
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 1: Josh Allens of the league that are consistently able to

1150
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: play at a high level. It's so hard to do

1151
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: because defensive coordinators are always changing and tweaking how they

1152
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 1: approach quarterbacks.

1153
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 4: Each and every week.

1154
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:38,320
Speaker 1: And the great ones are able to counter the counters,

1155
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: meaning they have the ability to adjust to the adjustments

1156
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: that are thrown at them and they find a way

1157
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:47,439
Speaker 1: to continue to succeed Brock parties in that phase where

1158
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,480
Speaker 1: he's trying to figure out how these teams are attacking him.

1159
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,839
Speaker 1: He's trying to figure out where the lines are, where

1160
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 1: the boundaries are to his game, and he's trying to

1161
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 1: do it within the framework of for He's nine offense

1162
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,359
Speaker 1: that is a bit run heavy, but it features play

1163
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 1: action passes and those things. So it's look yet to

1164
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 1: remember he's only a second year player. He's still trying

1165
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: to figure out and he has what I mean, he

1166
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: barely has what sixteen seventeen starts. Now, that's only a

1167
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: full season. He's still learning. People have to give him grace.

1168
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: He eventually finds his way out. Hopefully it's not this week.

1169
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,920
Speaker 1: Hopefully it's next week. But he'll get to the other

1170
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:22,400
Speaker 1: side of him. He'll be a better player and the

1171
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 1: team will be better because of it.

1172
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 2: Now I have to apologize that I'm surprised you didn't

1173
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 2: jump all over me because we talk about Jacksonville. You

1174
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 2: got to talk about that defense because that's the key

1175
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 2: for that ball club. You got Josh Allen, the real

1176
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,239
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, not the quarterback of Buffalo, the linebacker on Jacksonville.

1177
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,880
Speaker 2: Cornerback Darius Williams linebacker Fory Houlm. I mean, these are

1178
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 2: the guys are getting it done. And you look at

1179
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, He's got more than half of the team sacks. Now.

1180
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:53,720
Speaker 2: Jacksonville has sixteen sacks as a team, Allen has nine.

1181
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,360
Speaker 2: So this defense has really come to play.

1182
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, defense has come to play. Defense has been the

1183
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,239
Speaker 1: bigger surprise. The fact that they have been able to

1184
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 1: make the plays that they've made, turning the ball over,

1185
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: fourth down stops, red zone stops, all kinds of critical plays.

1186
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 4: Brilliant.

1187
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 2: Man.

1188
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 1: It's a testament to the job that Mike Halways done

1189
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 1: getting this team up and going. I think there's a

1190
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 1: lot of excitement about what they can do, but they're

1191
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,360
Speaker 1: about to be tested. You rite it off that schedule.

1192
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: You talk about the Niners today, You have the Bengals

1193
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: coming in about a month, get the Baltimore Ravens coming

1194
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:31,359
Speaker 1: in a few weeks after that.

1195
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 4: This defense will be testing.

1196
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,320
Speaker 1: How they perform will ultimately determine how the Jaguars fade

1197
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 1: finishes up.

1198
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying this because I love you to death,

1199
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,879
Speaker 2: but I'm telling you right now you can mark it down,

1200
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,920
Speaker 2: write it down, because I know I'm not doing well

1201
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 2: in bot and barrel betting, but I'm doing betting here.

1202
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 2: The Jacksonville Jaguars win this game twenty seventeen on a

1203
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 2: close one, a nail bier, but they're gonna win it.

1204
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 1: Oh man, I don't want to be biting my nails today,

1205

Speaker 1: that are going have a great slate of games coming up.

1229
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 1: We've been talking about the Jaguars forty nine Ers game

1230
00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:05,080
Speaker 1: that I.

1231
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 4: Will be at.

1232
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,279
Speaker 1: This is a great game because it's one where we

1233
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: talk about two teams that are expected to be in

1234
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: the title hunt. You had the Jacksonville Jaguars sitting at

1235
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,799
Speaker 1: six and two. This is a team that has gotten hot.

1236
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 1: They've won five straight games. They've done it in all

1237
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,839
Speaker 1: kinds of countries and continents and states. They went over

1238
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 1: and got two in London, played the Steelers, were able

1239
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 1: to come back and get one, got one finally. Now

1240
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 1: back at the Crib and then with the San Francisco

1241
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:31,800
Speaker 1: forty nine is this team.

1242
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 4: That has lost three straight.

1243
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,879
Speaker 1: But what they've done is they've made some moves off

1244
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: the field in terms of acquiring trade Randy Gregory and

1245
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,760
Speaker 1: then most recently Chase Young to really fortify the strength

1246
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:45,440
Speaker 1: of their team. And so all eyes will be on Jacksonville.

1247
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: It'll be a prime time game, to be a game

1248
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 1: that everyone is looking at in the first block of games,

1249
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 1: and what everyone wants to see is which rock party

1250
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,239
Speaker 1: is going to show up? Is the first time in

1251
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:57,480
Speaker 1: his young career that we've had some We've seen some

1252
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:01,239
Speaker 1: struggles from the forty nine ers star quarterback. He's turned

1253
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 1: the ball over more, he hasn't been as accurate as

1254
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: he's been in the past when everyone kind of fell

1255
00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,839
Speaker 1: in love with him as mister Irrelevant who kind of

1256
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 1: took over and really guided this team and took this

1257
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 1: team on a great run. And so we want to

1258
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 1: see what does Kyle Shanahan do over the break to

1259
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: get him right. In my estimation, I think this is

1260
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 1: probably a little cleanup job. He's had five interceptions over

1261
00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 1: the last three games. So what you tend to do

1262
00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 1: is when a quarterback struggles like that is how can

1263
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,280
Speaker 1: we simplify the things that he's seeing? What can we

1264
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,919
Speaker 1: do to make the game easier for him? I would

1265
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 1: expect to see more run game, more things with Christian

1266
00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 1: McCaffrey kind of doing his thing as a run of receiver.

1267
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,920
Speaker 1: You'll see Deebo Samuel, who comes back from injury. You'll

1268
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: see him get involved. So you look for bubble screens

1269
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:49,920
Speaker 1: and quick things, high percentage stuff that can get him

1270
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 1: into a rhythm. And then you'll see Shanahan dial up

1271
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: some things all play action. This is a very difficult

1272
00:57:56,280 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: matchup for the Jacksonville Jaguars based on the personnel that

1273
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: should allow Kyle Shanahan to find a way to get

1274
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 1: his young quarterback in rhythm.

1275
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 4: So that's the game.

1276
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be at this game that the country is

1277
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: going to be watching very very early on.

1278
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 4: But there's some other.

1279
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,080
Speaker 1: Games that are of interest today. And so I'm sitting

1280
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 1: here and I'm looking at the round robin that is

1281
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 1: in the AFC North. People who talk about this being

1282
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 1: the best division in football and some of the things

1283
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 1: that are going on. So Cincinnati take on the Houston Texas,

1284
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is taking on the Green Bay Packers. But the

1285
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 1: game that everyone is watching, Cleveland goes to the Baltimore Ravens.

1286
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 1: And the reason why this one is so interesting. You

1287
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,200
Speaker 1: have a Browns defense that is looked at the top

1288
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 1: of the charts and so many different categories.

1289
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 4: Jim Schwartz has done a really good job of.

1290
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: Taking Miles Garrett and building his defense around his talents

1291
00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: as a unique playmaker at the point of attack. But

1292
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: on the other side you have the Baltimore Ravens, who

1293
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: rank number one in the league in scoring defense. Mike

1294
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 1: McDonald had really taken a scheme and build it around

1295
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 1: the unique talents of the players that he has around

1296
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,320
Speaker 1: them in Baltimore's funny because we always talked about the

1297
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: Baltimore associate Baltimore playing great defense, but this is a

1298
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,800
Speaker 1: team that really doesn't have like the stars that were

1299
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: used to Like from the Heyday era when it was

1300
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 1: Ray Lewis and ed Reid, Sizzle, Terrell Suggs, you always

1301
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,439
Speaker 1: knew who their blue keyt their blue chip players were.

1302
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,600
Speaker 1: But I'm sitting here looking at the team and I'm

1303
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 1: gonna read off the sack numbers. So Justin made Bouquet

1304
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:37,760
Speaker 1: is the one who is the interior defensive tackle who

1305
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: leads this team in sacks with seven and a half sacks.

1306
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 1: You have Calvin Nooid who's been a journeyman the last

1307
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 1: few years, bouncing around from team to team, went from

1308
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:47,920
Speaker 1: the Patriots to the Dolphins, back to the Patriots, the Chargers,

1309
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 1: and now he is with the Baltimore Ravens.

1310
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 4: He has five sacks.

1311
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 1: Jadevian Clowney, who is maybe the greatest that never was

1312
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,000
Speaker 1: as a former number one overall pick but never got

1313
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 1: the sack production that you wanted.

1314
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 4: He has three and a half sacks. Let's go to interceptions.

1315
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,439
Speaker 1: Geno Stone, who was a sixth seventh round pick out

1316
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: of Iowa, leads the National Football League with six interceptions.

1317
01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: They're getting contributions from guys like Cal Hamilton and Brokeron

1318
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:18,240
Speaker 1: Smith and other guys, and so this is an unheralded,

1319
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: almost a no name defense that is playing at a

1320
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:26,080
Speaker 1: top level and because of the schematics the creativity, they've

1321
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 1: been able to get it done. So because you have

1322
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:31,720
Speaker 1: two good defenses, naturally the eyes will have to go

1323
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 1: to the quarterbacks. Lamar Jackson versus Deshaun Watson. Three or

1324
01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 1: four years ago, this would have been a debate on

1325
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: which one do you like better?

1326
01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:42,640
Speaker 4: Who would you want? Would you want Lamar.

1327
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:45,920
Speaker 1: Jackson, who is the dual threat, the electric runner who

1328
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 1: can do it with his legs sometimes with his arm.

1329
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: Or do you want Deshaun Watson who back in the

1330
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: day and nineteen, we were talking about celebrating this guy

1331
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 1: as a top five quarterback, raving about what he brings

1332
01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: to the table with the intangibles and the qualities. We

1333
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 1: haven't seen that DeShawn Watson in a long time. Today,

1334
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:09,680
Speaker 1: this game will kind of put the spotlight on what

1335
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 1: DeShawn was and what will he be in the future

1336
01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 1: compared to a guy who's playing at an MVP level

1337
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,040
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson should be a great game to watch.

1338
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm really looking forward to that one because that one

1339
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 1: has a lot of implications not only in the AFC North,

1340
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: but it has playoff poll expectations in terms of to

1341
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 1: dictate who's gonna be top seeds, who goes and all

1342
01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 1: this stuff. Even though we're at the halfway point. And

1343
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: then the other game that I'm looking at that has

1344
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: caught my eye.

1345
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 4: We talked about all these games.

1346
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:43,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the last one, the Nightcap New

1347
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:47,760
Speaker 1: York Jets versus the Las Vegas Raiders. I am looking

1348
01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:50,880
Speaker 1: at that game because the Las Vegas Raiders look so

1349
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:54,160
Speaker 1: different with Antonio pears last week against the New York Giants,

1350
01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 1: and even though it was the halfless Giants, they're playing

1351
01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 1: quarterback who was overwhelmed. The Raiders had a different energy

1352
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 1: to them. And when you hear the players talk about

1353
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 1: how there is more energy, more substance to bay In

1354
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:10,120
Speaker 1: was different, how it was a bit of a collaboration

1355
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 1: between the coaches and players more than it had been before.

1356
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: And you saw how they responded. I want to know

1357
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 1: how did the Raiders keep this going? All eyes would

1358
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 1: be there because everyone is the national game, it's a

1359
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 1: Sunday night game. Everyone would have an opportunity to see.

1360
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 4: So this is a.

1361
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 1: Great opportunity for Antonio appears to fully audition for the

1362
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 1: job while also showing Raider Nation and the rest of

1363
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:37,320
Speaker 1: the country how this team operates when they play on

1364
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 1: that line. On the flip side, the Jets, Robert Sala

1365
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 1: I think committed an egregious crime when he pled the

1366
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: fifth when asked about Zach Wilson and why Zach Wilson

1367
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: is starting to me these press conferences are the coach

1368
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 1: really speaking to the team every time he steps in

1369
01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 1: front of the mic. The team ultimately hears all the

1370
01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: commentary and those things, and so the fact that he

1371
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:08,920
Speaker 1: was not able to definitively support his quarterback speaks to

1372
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 1: maybe some unrests that's going on when it comes to

1373
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback room. And I'll say this, the Jets aren't

1374
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,400
Speaker 1: losing because of Zach Wilson. They're losing because they're not

1375
01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 1: good upfront at the offensive line. They can't run the football.

1376
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: They haven't been able to consistently get the ball to

1377
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 1: Gary Wilson, whether that's quarterback player, whether that's play design.

1378
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 1: Gary Wilson has not been the same players that he

1379
01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: was in terms of impact a season ago. And then defensively,

1380
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 1: this is a good defense and we're talking about him

1381
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 1: is a great defense, but they don't turn the ball over,

1382
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:45,920
Speaker 1: so they don't give the offense extra opportunities with their turnovers,

1383
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 1: and so the lack of takeaways to me, is troubling

1384
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: because this defense has to know that for them to win,

1385
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 1: they got to take on more.

1386
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:54,040
Speaker 4: And by taking on more, it's not.

1387
01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 1: Just holding teams to three and outs and keeping them

1388
01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 1: off the scoreboard. We're seeing turnovers because this offense is

1389
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 1: gonna have a tough time driving the length of the field.

1390
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,479
Speaker 1: They're not an offense is built to go eighty yards

1391
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 1: down the field. They have to figure out a way

1392
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,600
Speaker 1: to continue to put their offense in good position. And

1393
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 1: so the only way they can do that is by

1394
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 1: playing a little more aggressively. When it comes to hunting

1395
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:21,560
Speaker 1: the ball, the ball Hawks have to come out Saft

1396
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 1: Guard and the DJ Reid they have to be able

1397
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 1: to do that.

1398
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,000
Speaker 4: Also, that's the matchup to watch.

1399
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:27,920
Speaker 1: Saft Guard and the DJ read versus DeVante Adams all

1400
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:32,120
Speaker 1: pro wide receiver against two really really good cornerbacks. One

1401
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:34,760
Speaker 1: is regarded as an elite maybe the Premiership in the

1402
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: corner of the game, and Gardner DJ Reid is right

1403
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 1: behind him, well thought of in scouting circles in terms

1404
01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:42,439
Speaker 1: of how he plays the game.

1405
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 4: That is a great matchup to watch.

1406
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,479
Speaker 1: And so it's a very compelling matchup when it comes

1407
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,800
Speaker 1: down to looking at a is it going to be

1408
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,240
Speaker 1: the Jets defense that finds a way to kind of

1409
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 1: get back on track. Can they help Zach Wilson versus

1410
01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 1: a Raiders team and a Raiders offense that looks the part.

1411
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 4: And so there we have it.

1412
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 1: That's what I'm looking for for today's game. It should

1413
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:07,800
Speaker 1: be a lot of fun. Should be a lot of fun.

1414
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: Just kind of checking out this late.

1415
01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:10,920
Speaker 4: Let's go.

1416
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 1: I think we have a little break right now. We've

1417
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:14,800
Speaker 1: been breaking some news. See what's going on.

1418
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 4: What we got?

1419
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had some injury updates playing. Oh that actually

1420
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:22,560
Speaker 3: broke overnight. Although we do have some conflicting reports regarding

1421
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers tackle Trent Williams, Adam Schefter saying a

1422
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,720
Speaker 3: few hours ago that he is expected to play against

1423
01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:30,760
Speaker 3: the Jaguars. He's been dealing with an ankle injury and

1424
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:34,680
Speaker 3: listened as questionable. However, Ian Rappaport about three hours ago

1425
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:38,600
Speaker 3: saying that it'll actually be an uphill battle for Williams

1426
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 3: to play today against the Jaguars. He will try to

1427
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:44,439
Speaker 3: work out pre game, however, according to Rapaport, it will

1428
01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:48,280
Speaker 3: be a challenge. Rappaport with another update, saying that Commander's

1429
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 3: wide receiver Curtis Samuel is expected to play today. He's

1430
01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 3: been limited all week with a toe injury, listened as questionable,

1431
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 3: but is expected to suit up. Bengals wide receiver Jamar

1432
01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,920
Speaker 3: Chase considered fifty to fifty apps best. He's been dealing

1433
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,920
Speaker 3: with a back injury and Rappaport's saying that while there

1434
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,360
Speaker 3: is no structural damage, he is in pain and it's

1435
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 3: unclear how functional he'll actually be today. They'll keep the

1436
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,920
Speaker 3: door open until game time, so they're gonna wait as

1437
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:16,120
Speaker 3: long as possible before ruling him out. Vikings tight end TJ.

1438
01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:18,960
Speaker 3: Hawkinson is expected to play. He's been dealing with the

1439
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:23,160
Speaker 3: ribbon injury. Listed as questionable. Wide receiver kJ Osbourne has

1440
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 3: cleared the concussion protocol, however, doesn't necessarily mean he'll play.

1441
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:29,560
Speaker 3: It was a significant hit he took in Minnesota. Does

1442
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 3: want to check him out and make sure he is

1443
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:37,280
Speaker 3: good to go. Ravens running back Heaton Mitchell full participate

1444
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 3: in practice on Friday, so he's expected to play today. However,

1445
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 3: Pro Bowl quarnback Marlin Humphrey is optimistic about playing, but

1446
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 3: he does need to clear a pregame warm up. As

1447
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:52,479
Speaker 3: for the college level, we did have a full slate

1448
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 3: of action on Saturday. All four teams in the top

1449
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 3: four playoff rankings did win on Saturday. Number one Ohio

1450
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,600
Speaker 3: State rules over Michigan State thirty eight to three, Number

1451
01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 3: two Georgia, and it was a top ten matchup with

1452
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 3: number nine onll MISS but it looked like they played

1453
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:10,360
Speaker 3: an FCS team with the final score fifty two to seventeen.

1454
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,680
Speaker 3: The Bulldogs win it. Number three Michigan despite missing Jim Harbaugh.

1455
01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:17,240
Speaker 3: He's been suspended the final three games of the season

1456
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 3: by the Big Ten. With the Dude get a road

1457
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:21,960
Speaker 3: win against number ten Penn State twenty four to fifteen.

1458
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,959
Speaker 3: So that sets up a pivotal showdown, possibly a top

1459
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:28,040
Speaker 3: three showdown in two weeks in ann Arbor Ohio State

1460
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:32,800
Speaker 3: and Michigan. Florida State escapes against Miami twenty seven to

1461
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:34,640
Speaker 3: twenty and then the big matchup of the Pac twelve.

1462
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 3: Number five Washington holds off Utah number eighteen Utah thirty

1463
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,040
Speaker 3: five to twenty eight to Washington, chopping at the bit

1464
01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:44,400
Speaker 3: for Ohio State and Michigan to play to see if

1465
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 3: they can possibly leap frog into those top four standings.

1466
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:51,600
Speaker 1: Back to you guys, Yeah, thanks, man, that's great. It's

1467
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:53,919
Speaker 1: funny you talk about college football and all the things

1468
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:58,400
Speaker 1: at college football has been able to discuss in The

1469
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,520
Speaker 1: Michigan scandal or situation has certainly put a cloud over

1470
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:03,560
Speaker 1: college football, but there are a.

1471
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 4: Lot of good things that are going on.

1472
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:07,840
Speaker 1: You talk about this college football rankings list, and we'll

1473
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,280
Speaker 1: see what it looks like this week. But Florida State

1474
01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 1: firmly entrenched in the in the playoffs, and so that

1475
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:15,880
Speaker 1: is good to see because this is a team that

1476
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,520
Speaker 1: is Look, it's been out of the spotlight.

1477
01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:19,519
Speaker 4: For a while.

1478
01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 1: I remember when they won a national title with Jameis

1479
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 1: Winston didn't have some Uh.

1480
01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:24,599
Speaker 4: It's been up and down.

1481
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 1: Jim Jimbo Fisher LEAs Mike Uh when the tagger comes in.

1482
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:30,840
Speaker 1: Mike Norvil then takes over after that, and then he

1483
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:32,560
Speaker 1: is being able to get them back. And when you

1484
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,280
Speaker 1: watch this team, they knock off the U yesterday. This

1485
01:08:35,320 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 1: team is exciting. Jordan Travis, their quarterback, is one of

1486
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,679
Speaker 1: the best in the business. He has not been talked

1487
01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:43,880
Speaker 1: about in the Heisman discussion. Don't really know why he's

1488
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:45,759
Speaker 1: not been included. This is one of the best teams

1489
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 1: in football. He is playing great for them. When I

1490
01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:52,519
Speaker 1: talked to Mike Norvel early last week, he discussed about

1491
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,400
Speaker 1: how special Uh the quarterback is and what he's been

1492
01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,280
Speaker 1: able to do, what he's doing in Torrents to throwing

1493
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: Kean Coleman. Johnny Wilson played last couple of weeks, but

1494
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,720
Speaker 1: he has been a good player on the outside. They

1495
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:08,000
Speaker 1: have a defense that is fast and physical. Uh, it's

1496
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,720
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see what this team looks like.

1497
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,960
Speaker 1: Uh when when when they get into the the the

1498
01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 1: postseason and they play in the playoffs.

1499
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 4: But my eyes are in the SEC.

1500
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 1: And Curry Smart said it, Uh, he said it before

1501
01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 1: the game. He said, some of these teams need to

1502
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 1: come and get some of this SEC and see see

1503
01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 1: what it's like.

1504
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:27,960
Speaker 4: And I agree with.

1505
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:31,200
Speaker 1: Him because it is a tough, rough, physical conference And

1506
01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,400
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here and I'm looking how it's shaking out.

1507
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:34,920
Speaker 4: Alabama wins.

1508
01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,679
Speaker 1: They clinched the SEC West with their win over Kentucky yesterday.

1509
01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: Jayden mill Row is playing great football for them at quarterback.

1510
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,960
Speaker 1: And then the Georgia Bulldogs are well on their way

1511
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 1: to kind of clinching the East. So in the SEC

1512
01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 1: Championship game, we're going to have an opportunity to see

1513
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 1: the Georgia Bulldogs take on the Alabama Cchrystal Tide. Which

1514
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,479
Speaker 1: everybody loves to see that, Like, I mean, who doesn't

1515
01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 1: want to see two great programs too, established programs that

1516
01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:04,479
Speaker 1: have always been in the national conversation over the last

1517
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: five years, they'll get a chance to square off an

1518
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,519
Speaker 1: SEC title game to see if one or both of

1519
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:11,559
Speaker 1: those teams go to the football playoff, and then in

1520
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 1: a few weeks we can get a chance to see

1521
01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 1: two of the other teams that are listening to this,

1522
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Michigan and Ohio State square off. Now, the sign stealing stuff,

1523
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,679
Speaker 1: the theatrics, and the drama behind all of that certainly

1524
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 1: is going to overshadow the game. But this is a

1525
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 1: game where Michigan has dominated the matchup the last two times,

1526
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 1: physically dominated them. Some of the strong replies that you

1527
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,040
Speaker 1: heard from Ryan Day at the end of the noted

1528
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: Dame game when he was being interviewed by the reporter

1529
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 1: has to deal with that part, that part of the

1530
01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:48,679
Speaker 1: lack of physicality then being perceived as a soft team. Well,

1531
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:51,599
Speaker 1: they're going to have an opportunity to make amends for that.

1532
01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 1: But it's going to be a very motivated and inspired,

1533
01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:58,080
Speaker 1: in salty Michigan team because they look at Ohio State,

1534
01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,519
Speaker 1: they have talked about maybe and being a part of,

1535
01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:05,920
Speaker 1: you know, giving away their signs to Purdue and maybe

1536
01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:09,639
Speaker 1: diming them out to the conference, and so this would

1537
01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:11,840
Speaker 1: be a very testy thing. But I don't know if

1538
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:14,040
Speaker 1: college football has ever been in a better place in

1539
01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 1: terms of the attention.

1540
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:16,360
Speaker 4: Because outside of.

1541
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:18,560
Speaker 1: That, you got Washington in Oregon who may rematch it

1542
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,439
Speaker 1: in the Pact, twelve Texas playing well. So there's a

1543
01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,559
Speaker 1: lot of excitement about college football. Can't wait to see

1544
01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:26,439
Speaker 1: what these playoff polls look like. It sounds like my

1545
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:28,680
Speaker 1: got back? Is my guy Andy Ferrman back? Is he back?

1546
01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:29,559
Speaker 1: In the minute I'm.

1547
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:31,800
Speaker 2: Here, I had to do my little I was running

1548
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 2: around the block a couple of times. I'm okay, okay, man.

1549
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:37,280
Speaker 1: Look, I don't mind you taking a little break in

1550
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,040
Speaker 1: the middle show. Going to get a little running, get

1551
01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,439
Speaker 1: your exercise in so you can come back with clear mind,

1552
01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:44,000
Speaker 1: get your thoughts out.

1553
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:46,400
Speaker 4: And So college football, what are you mostly excited to see?

1554
01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:49,320
Speaker 1: I just talked about, Like, look, Georgia and Alabama or

1555
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:50,559
Speaker 1: on a collision course to play.

1556
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 4: We know that Michigan and Ohio State are.

1557
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: Going to be there, Florida State is penciled in as

1558
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 1: a playoff participant, and then we have Washington and Oregon

1559
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 1: and kind of doing their thing. It looks like they

1560
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to rematch it in the Pact, who

1561
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 1: have title game. What are your thoughts right now in

1562
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 1: the state of college football.

1563
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's great because I think right now

1564
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:11,680
Speaker 2: there's no one dominant team. I mean, I think the

1565
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:14,719
Speaker 2: days of the Alabama is dominating everybody, except they dominated

1566
01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:17,559
Speaker 2: Kentucky last night. I think those days are gone, which

1567
01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:19,679
Speaker 2: is a good thing. I think that the playing field

1568
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:21,920
Speaker 2: is a little more even right now. You know, it's

1569
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 2: very difficult for me living on the East coast and

1570
01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:26,800
Speaker 2: Eastern time to follow what's going on in the Pac

1571
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,160
Speaker 2: ten and Pac twelve because I don't see those games

1572
01:12:30,160 --> 01:12:32,639
Speaker 2: that they end so late on the Pac twelve network.

1573
01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,320
Speaker 2: But it's great to see Washington and Oregon battling it out.

1574
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 2: I was really upset last night when I saw a

1575
01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:43,160
Speaker 2: UCF beating up on Oklahoma State that I was shocked.

1576
01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:45,200
Speaker 2: That was a shacka last night because I kind of

1577
01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 2: root for Oklahoma State, was happy they beat Oklahoma last week.

1578
01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 2: Was that a letdown or was oh UCF that good

1579
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,120
Speaker 2: to beat Oklahoma State? I don't get it.

1580
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:55,519
Speaker 4: Well, it was a mix of the weather. The weather

1581
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:55,920
Speaker 4: was bad.

1582
01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:00,640
Speaker 1: It was a bit of a monsoon, a storm. It

1583
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:02,720
Speaker 1: kind of over top of the stadium, so there was

1584
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:05,280
Speaker 1: a lot of rain, a lot of sloppy conditions. Oklahoma

1585
01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:08,559
Speaker 1: State turned the ball over early and UCF got rolling,

1586
01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:10,680
Speaker 1: and so they put themselves in a hold. I think

1587
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,439
Speaker 1: they were down twenty four to nothing very early in

1588
01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: the game and they never could get out of it.

1589
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 1: It was weird, though, because I'm looking at the game

1590
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 1: and UCF is in their light blues, a little powder

1591
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 1: blue uniform, which you know their colors are black and gold.

1592
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: So I couldn't really understand it, but maybe it signified

1593
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 1: there was rain that was descending upon them for their game.

1594
01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,559
Speaker 1: But it was very interesting to kind of watch that

1595
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 1: play out. But no, Oklahoma State could not follow up

1596
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 1: a great win at Bedlam with the game against UCF,

1597
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:42,120
Speaker 1: and so it was really really disappointing to see them

1598
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 1: kind of fall apart.

1599
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,480
Speaker 2: Pianali Gordon, I mean that guy right now with a disappointment.

1600
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,120
Speaker 2: Then last night he had like something like twenty five

1601
01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,639
Speaker 2: twenty seven yards. He didn't do much at all last

1602
01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:54,080
Speaker 2: night for Oklahoma State. Now, last week I was talking

1603
01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 2: about this guy as a possible Heisman Trophy candidate that

1604
01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:00,280
Speaker 2: goes down to the crapper. That's the kind of that

1605
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:00,840
Speaker 2: right now.

1606
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you have to throw him out. You have

1607
01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:05,960
Speaker 1: to throw him out. I think I think it's a crapshoot.

1608
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:08,080
Speaker 1: Everyone is trying to figure out who should be up there,

1609
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:12,760
Speaker 1: But I don't know, there's not there's not that that

1610
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 1: that that gap with the signature game or the signature

1611
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:19,519
Speaker 1: name to to to kind of put up there. Michael

1612
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 1: Pennix Junior, who leads the country and and and and

1613
01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:27,439
Speaker 1: passing yards in those things, like he has thirty two hundred,

1614
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,360
Speaker 1: he has twenty six touchdowns, seven interceptions, but doesn't seem

1615
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:34,960
Speaker 1: like his name has a lot of buzz. The bow

1616
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:38,200
Speaker 1: knicks they've they've kind of throw thrown into the mix.

1617
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:41,320
Speaker 1: His completion percentages at the top of the charts, but

1618
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if he excites anybody. Twenty five touchdowns

1619
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 1: only two interceptions, I don't know if that's going to

1620
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:50,400
Speaker 1: be enough to necessarily kind of get him in the mix.

1621
01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:51,200
Speaker 4: I don't know, man.

1622
01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:53,320
Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's wide open, and so

1623
01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,760
Speaker 1: normally in these things, it ends up going to the

1624
01:14:56,840 --> 01:15:00,280
Speaker 1: quarterback of the best team. No one has talked about him,

1625
01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:02,880
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about him now. Jordan Travis from Florida State.

1626
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:05,800
Speaker 1: When you look at Florida State being undefeated. You look

1627
01:15:05,840 --> 01:15:08,560
Speaker 1: at the fact that he has nineteen touchdowns only two interceptions.

1628
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:12,640
Speaker 1: Sometimes in these situations, it goes to the best to

1629
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:13,920
Speaker 1: the quarterback.

1630
01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:14,439
Speaker 4: On the best team.

1631
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:16,720
Speaker 1: Right now, he would appear to be in the mix

1632
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 1: because Carson back can't state that case.

1633
01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 2: So wait a minute, it's about quarterback on the best team.

1634
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,679
Speaker 2: I still think Michigan is the best team right now.

1635
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 2: What about JJ McCarthy, And but what about they're running back.

1636
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 2: I mean Blake Carum yesterday he picked up one hundred

1637
01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,080
Speaker 2: and forty five yards and twenty six carries. I mean

1638
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 2: they were a running based team. But I think JJ

1639
01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 2: McCarthy what he is done for Michigan, that's big. I mean,

1640
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:37,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's going to get the highest

1641
01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 2: but I certainly think he's gets the votes.

1642
01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's certainly going to get some votes. Now people

1643
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:44,120
Speaker 1: that talk about that. But here here's the thing that

1644
01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,599
Speaker 1: the viter the voters will have to wrestle with. Yesterday,

1645
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:50,719
Speaker 1: in a big game against Penn State, they didn't complete

1646
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,400
Speaker 1: any passes in the second half. They ran the ball

1647
01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 1: thirty two straight times in the second half. So we'll

1648
01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:57,679
Speaker 1: get to it. On the other side, let's take a break,

1649
01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 1: most of you guys and finish up this hour.

1659
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:30,960
Speaker 3: lot of radio. You and I have been part of

1660

Speaker 3: a lot of broadcasts, and right now I get to

1661
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:39,720
Speaker 3: be obliterated and humbled by watching you dominate me in

1662
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 3: one of the games that you love to play so much.

1663
01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 6: Thank me. It's bottom.

1664
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 2: Funny to sleep. People, get my money.

1665
01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:49,200
Speaker 3: I'll put your brain to sleep.

1666
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 1: Betty.

1667
01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:52,479
Speaker 3: All right, Hi, Shay, how are you?

1668
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:53,160
Speaker 1: I mean?

1669
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:55,559
Speaker 7: Welcome man. I feel like Andy's just had enough. I

1670
01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:57,360
Speaker 7: feel like you can't take the losses anymore.

1671
01:16:57,360 --> 01:17:02,599
Speaker 1: Bucketing. Oh no, you know what, there's something to beating

1672
01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:03,720
Speaker 1: people into submission.

1673
01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:06,439
Speaker 7: It's I think he's taken up running. I think that's

1674
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:07,320
Speaker 7: what he's doing right now.

1675
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 1: I think, I.

1676
01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,920
Speaker 3: Think is that one of the pieces of the equation here,

1677
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 3: we're gonna pick long distance running or what I mean.

1678
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:20,160
Speaker 7: It has been a part of the show, but not today.

1679
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:22,519
Speaker 7: Not today. Well, we'll give you some new ones though.

1680
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:24,519
Speaker 7: We got some new ones, some interesting ones, and we'll

1681
01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,600
Speaker 7: start with the first one, which actually actually is a

1682
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:31,040
Speaker 7: staple of the show. Cech Republic Table Tennis Liga Pro.

1683
01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:33,519
Speaker 7: Bucky knows it. I don't know if you know it, Mike.

1684
01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 3: But I'm a little afraid right now distinct competitive advantage.

1685
01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:39,639
Speaker 3: He's got a bigger reach too, So I mean anything

1686
01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 3: I hit to the edge of the table, I'm screwed.

1687
01:17:42,160 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 7: I mean, Bucky's a multi sport athlete, of course, he

1688
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:48,400
Speaker 7: knows what he's doing. Micah Zobach is taken on dominic

1689
01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:52,080
Speaker 7: lengal at five a m Pacific standard time, so in

1690
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 7: basically ten minutes, micah Zoback is minus one twenty five

1691
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:59,639
Speaker 7: while dominic lengal is minus one fifteen. Harmon, take it away.

1692
01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 3: Take the chalk. We're gonna go with soap back to

1693

Speaker 1: you like my guys. Yeah, I'm gonna take Link. I'll

1703
01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:31,439

1704
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:34,799
Speaker 1: people don't always know what's best, that let's go against

1705
01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 1: the grind.

01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:35,439
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1707
01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:37,320
Speaker 3: I like the fact that you're you're kind of taking

1708
01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:42,640
Speaker 3: the NFL underdogs and unders and applying it to another shot.

1709
01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:47,720
Speaker 7: In the International Champion of Champions.

1710
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:48,320
Speaker 1: What a name.

1711
01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:52,080
Speaker 7: This is a professional, non ranking snooker tournament. And I

1712
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,000
Speaker 7: don't know if you're not familiar with what snooker is,

1713
01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 7: it's basically a pool table.

1714
01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go.

1715
01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 7: Luca Brisel is taking on Marry Hawkins this Tuesday, the fourteenth,

1716
01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 7: at five am Pacific Standard time. They're both coming into

1717
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:08,760
Speaker 7: the match minus one fifteen, so it's not helping you

1718
01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:09,719
Speaker 7: hear Mike, Oh.

1719
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 3: It's an even matchup. I'm gonna go with the Hawkins

1720
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:16,120
Speaker 3: in this match. And you know, just I start thinking

1721
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,880
Speaker 3: of Hawk, going back to Avery Brooks and the character

1722
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 3: he played, so well.

1723
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:24,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do remember Hawk.

1724
01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:29,480
Speaker 3: I do like that when I get that directed.

1725
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:31,960
Speaker 1: Now I'm all distracted and you're talking about Hawk and

1726
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:35,080
Speaker 1: Hawk was such a bad, bad guy. So who give

1727
01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:37,959
Speaker 1: my other choices against Brissell? I got distracted?

1728
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:39,919
Speaker 7: Luca Brissell and Barry Hawkins.

1729
01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:42,679
Speaker 4: Okay, who's the favorite? Which one?

1730
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:44,160
Speaker 7: They're both minus one fifteen?

1731
01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:47,120
Speaker 4: Oh okay, well let's go with Luca. I can't he

1732
01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 4: took Hawk.

1733
01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:49,600
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna go yeah, yeah, but go back to

1734
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,400
Speaker 3: you know, a season a man called Hawk from nineteen

1735
01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:56,600
Speaker 3: eighty nine. We had Moses Gun and Angela Bassett in

1736
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 3: that show. Come on, how do you lose?

1737

Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, that is dead is funny? Yeah, houck man.

1738
01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:03,559
Speaker 4: He was a bad guy.

1739
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 3: Yeah see, now we got it going.

1740
01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:11,160

Speaker 3: gaps and reminder, we have one more final game from

1782
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:18,679
Speaker 3: Germany as we've got the Colts and the Patriots getting

1783
01:22:18,720 --> 01:22:21,040
Speaker 3: after it and guys, this week, I didn't hear anybody

1784
01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:23,759
Speaker 3: complaining about the scheduling of this game being in Germany.

1785
01:22:25,640 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 2: You know why no one cares about the game? It was?

1786
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:33,479
Speaker 1: It was, It wasn't a Marquee game. That's what we

1787
01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 1: were advocating. Give them to give them the crumbs. Don't

1788
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,400
Speaker 1: give them the good games, give them the break crumbs.

1789
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,040
Speaker 1: You want to give them to file a. Last week,

1790
01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:42,200
Speaker 1: we gave them to file a.

1791
01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:45,960
Speaker 3: And they celebrated every minute of it, as did we

1792
01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:49,960
Speaker 3: because people got up early. The ratings said so although

1793
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 3: nine point five million people sat through the Bears and

1794
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:56,599
Speaker 3: the Panthers on Thursday Night, showing that, you know, there's

1795
01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,639
Speaker 3: no accounting for taste when it comes to football, one

1796
01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:04,599
Speaker 3: where or another where. Jason Kelsey's interview with Al Michaels

1797
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:08,160
Speaker 3: might have been the highlight of his season. As we've seen.

1798
01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 2: That Thursday Night. Who's that guy? Because I'd like to

1799
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,280
Speaker 2: apply for that job. I mean, really, you've got to

1800
01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:15,200
Speaker 2: be an idiot to put those games on Thursday Night.

1801
01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:18,960
Speaker 2: I mean really think about that. I mean, you look

1802
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:20,920
Speaker 2: forward to a game and look, if you're going to

1803
01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:23,839
Speaker 2: be the only game on the night where the nation's

1804
01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:26,400
Speaker 2: watching and everybody in the league is watching that game,

1805
01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:28,559
Speaker 2: can you give us a better product than that? And

1806
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:31,960
Speaker 2: I get it, I know the Jets basically without Aaron Rodgers,

1807
01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 2: but you could flex. Why can't they switch it to

1808
01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:35,479
Speaker 2: last hour. I don't get it.

1809
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:41,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, flexing Thursday Night's whole other animal, I think. But yeah,

1810
01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 3: as we get deeper in the season to this point,

1811
01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:46,560
Speaker 3: they haven't flexed out anything, right. They had the opportunity

1812
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:49,559
Speaker 3: to flex out tonight's game, But no, we're gonna get

1813
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 3: Jets and Raiders. Yay, which is good because the game

1814
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:56,840
Speaker 3: will be done and if the Jets go and get beaten,

1815
01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 3: then I don't have to listen to Smith Crow about

1816
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:02,040
Speaker 3: anything tomorrow as he and I get back on the

1817
01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:05,360
Speaker 3: airwaves from seven to eleven here. But yeah, I mean

1818
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 3: it's you know, the primetime schedule. I always say, we've

1819
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,599
Speaker 3: got two hundred and seventy two of them, guys, let's

1820
01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,599
Speaker 3: make the best of it, and they're not all going

1821
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,800
Speaker 3: to be winners. Some have to be ranked last. Now,

1822
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:19,479
Speaker 3: it seemed like some folks got confused. I'm not going

1823
01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,719
Speaker 3: to name names about the implications of wins and losses

1824
01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:25,680
Speaker 3: coming out of that Thursday game. I'm not in the

1825
01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:28,120
Speaker 3: same tax bracket, but I at least know these things.

1826
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 3: But we would come through the process, and here we

1827
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,360
Speaker 3: are on a Sunday morning, and we get to celebrate

1828
01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:36,920
Speaker 3: a whole new slate, except for the fact that several

1829
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,160
Speaker 3: of the heavyweights are out, so this might as well

1830
01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:42,240
Speaker 3: have been sending the game into an early morning EU

1831
01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:46,599
Speaker 3: appeeing destination. Because, folks, if you haven't been paying attention

1832
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 3: to the rest of the NFL by scheduling the bye

1833
01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:51,400
Speaker 3: weeks as they did this week, outside of the RAMS,

1834
01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:54,600
Speaker 3: the NFL is forcing you to watch other games and

1835
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:58,040
Speaker 3: make your acquaintance with some other players along the way.

1836
01:24:58,479 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 5: I erede.

1837
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:01,679

01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 3: like that in the middle of the night, you guys

Speaker 3: in the morning, we're getting conflicting injury updates. That's where

1842
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:16,080
Speaker 3: we're at in the year twenty twenty three, Andy Information.

1843
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:19,320
Speaker 3: Guys don't get to sleep Saturday and to Sunday anymore.

1844
01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:22,639
Speaker 2: Right, and they shouldn't because they get six months off,

1845
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:24,680
Speaker 2: so let them work for six months. I mean, it

1846
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 2: is a big deal, really, and I think with the

1847
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 2: advent of gambling, and when I said, there's always been

1848
01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:31,280
Speaker 2: gambling like in Vegas, but now there's gambling on your

1849
01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:33,280
Speaker 2: phone so I think people want to see what's going

1850
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:35,960
Speaker 2: on last minute because those odds are changing. I'm not

1851
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:38,280
Speaker 2: one of those guys that kind of lives for the odds,

1852
01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 2: but certainly there are a lot of people that do,

1853
01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:42,960
Speaker 2: so they want to see what's going on. Well.

1854
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:47,400
Speaker 3: Obviously also just the cash influx to what an insider

1855
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:52,280
Speaker 3: and their value to these respective organizations. So yeah, it's

1856
01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:55,479
Speaker 3: become an interesting part, but you know, just to stay

1857
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,840
Speaker 3: on that game for a moment. Bucky Trent Williams, the

1858
01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,760
Speaker 3: conflicting report with Brock Purty the last couple of weeks

1859
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:06,479
Speaker 3: and his struggles. He's looked like a jag right as

1860
01:26:06,520 --> 01:26:09,040
Speaker 3: we go through, not to say, hey, you know, as

1861
01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:12,280
Speaker 3: a Jaguar, but you know, the just a guy moniker

1862
01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,680
Speaker 3: as opposed to the celebrated person he'd become through the

1863
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:18,280
Speaker 3: early early part of the season. And going back to

1864
01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,639
Speaker 3: last year, they've upgraded on the defensive side. So we'll

1865
01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 3: see Gregory, we will see the trade that they made

1866
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,120
Speaker 3: to bring in Chase Young and whether his body can

1867
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:30,760
Speaker 3: hold up for the second half of a season. But

1868
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:37,679
Speaker 3: how much does Trent williams absence really restructure what Shanahan

1869
01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:38,280
Speaker 3: has to do.

1870
01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:41,400
Speaker 1: I mean, Look, you can make the argument he's their

1871
01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:46,439
Speaker 1: best offensive player. He's all Pro tackle who gives him

1872
01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:50,000
Speaker 1: the bully mentality at the point of attack. You've seen him, man,

1873
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 1: they put this guy in motion. He cleans out people

1874
01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:54,920
Speaker 1: at the point of attack, moves people off the ball.

1875
01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:57,960
Speaker 1: Is Hugh was lost, he's not there, It changes a

1876
01:26:58,000 --> 01:26:59,680
Speaker 1: little bit of how they go about their business. This

1877
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:03,400
Speaker 1: run the football. But you're losing a premiere run blocker

1878
01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:06,680
Speaker 1: and pass protector, so things can quicken a little bit.

1879
01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:07,400
Speaker 4: For Brock Purdy.

1880
01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 1: You talk about someone who's made five who's had five

1881
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,800
Speaker 1: inter episode of the last three games. The last thing

1882
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,280
Speaker 1: you want to do is kind of make him feel

1883
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:17,559
Speaker 1: uncomfortable in the pocket. If you're Kyle Shanahan, if Williams

1884
01:27:17,680 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 1: isn't available, he's going to be uncomfortable.

1885
01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:21,040
Speaker 4: If he's going to be uncomfortab, he's going to end

1886
01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:22,000
Speaker 4: up making mistakes.

1887
01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 2: Now, would it be fair to say Bucky and Michael

1888
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:28,000
Speaker 2: if I may that the injury that Deebo Samuel and

1889
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:31,240
Speaker 2: of course Christian McCaffrey has been heard now he's back,

1890
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:35,639
Speaker 2: I think that is to the damage of what they've

1891
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:38,320
Speaker 2: had over the last three weeks, because, as I mentioned,

1892
01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:41,000
Speaker 2: early on. When they're playing Jacksonville today, you're looking at

1893
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,719
Speaker 2: two teams going in opposite directions. Right now, they've lost

1894
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,760
Speaker 2: three straight and they've scored only seventeen points in those

1895
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 2: three losses.

1896
01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, yeah, you look at the backfield behind

1897
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:55,439
Speaker 3: McCaffrey with the oblique, they didn't really have a big option,

1898
01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 3: right Jordan Mason and Elijah Mitchell's been banged up a bunch,

1899
01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,160
Speaker 3: and Deebo Samuel. It was really you know, through the game,

1900
01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:06,599
Speaker 3: login and Bucky obviously you're reading the tape and going

1901
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,519
Speaker 3: through it with the fine tooth comb with your scouting acumen.

1902
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:12,519
Speaker 3: In years in the league, I mean, Debo from an

1903
01:28:12,560 --> 01:28:15,400
Speaker 3: offensive standpoint was more of a decoy than an active

1904
01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:17,839
Speaker 3: participant in most weeks, even before the injury.

1905
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:21,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he wasn't like crushing him. And also

1906
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 1: he's more of a playmaker than what I would call

1907
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:26,240
Speaker 1: a pure receiver. He's a guy that you're just trying

1908
01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 1: to put the ball in his hands and allow him

1909
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:29,000
Speaker 1: to go to work on the perimeter.

1910
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:30,400
Speaker 4: That's how they utilize him.

1911
01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:34,559
Speaker 1: He's basically an extension of Christian McCaffrey, but their roles

1912
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:37,639
Speaker 1: are reversed. He is a receiver slash running back, where

1913
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:41,200
Speaker 1: McCaffrey's a running back slash receiver. So their priorities are different,

1914
01:28:41,200 --> 01:28:42,599
Speaker 1: but they accomplished the same thing.

1915
01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:44,160
Speaker 4: With him back, it.

1916
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:45,599
Speaker 1: Allows you to kind of use some of the fly

1917
01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:47,880
Speaker 1: sweep game. It allows you to be a little more

1918
01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:51,679
Speaker 1: creative with the formations to make it easy for perty

1919
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:56,599
Speaker 1: in the identification process. So his return will help them

1920
01:28:56,840 --> 01:28:59,720
Speaker 1: schematically and creatively find a way to make the game

1921
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:00,960
Speaker 1: very easy for the quarterback.

1922
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:03,679
Speaker 2: Now let me circle yeah, without Troub Williams, I would

1923
01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:06,200
Speaker 2: say that without trub Williams, look for Josh Allen to

1924
01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:08,920
Speaker 2: have a big day today to really upset rock party.

1925
01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:11,720
Speaker 2: Josh Allen the linebacker over there in Jacksonville, And I

1926
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:14,120
Speaker 2: know one knows some better than Bucky Brooks.

1927
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 3: Well, especially when we can get dueling. Josh Allen's that

1928
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:20,840
Speaker 3: that flow through the the NFL as well. So you're

1929
01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:23,960
Speaker 3: helping to make a name for a man who, well,

1930
01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 3: the other guy's got the name and recognition. So you

1931
01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:30,639
Speaker 3: get a little bit more love for Josh Allen. Maybe

1932
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 3: he's got to get a cool nickname. Does he have

1933
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:33,280
Speaker 3: a cool nickname with the team there?

1934
01:29:33,320 --> 01:29:39,559
Speaker 1: Bucky, Yeah, Josh Allen, that's it the same my name.

1935
01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:42,640
Speaker 3: I did that. Hey, let's circle back to Indy and

1936
01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:46,040
Speaker 3: New England. Obviously, you know, Andy, through the years, you've

1937
01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:48,479
Speaker 3: developed a little bit of a back and forth with

1938
01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick. You've had him on on your programs in

1939
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:54,040
Speaker 3: the past. Uh. And on the other side, we've got

1940
01:29:54,040 --> 01:29:57,000
Speaker 3: the cold stike in the first year, Guy and Gardner,

1941
01:29:57,040 --> 01:30:00,840
Speaker 3: Minshew and all I talked about the inside staying up

1942
01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:03,000
Speaker 3: late at night and trying to figure out which way

1943
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:05,760
Speaker 3: the wind is blowing. Same thing in New England as

1944
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:10,639
Speaker 3: to whether Bill gets it an early European holiday. Should they

1945
01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:11,800
Speaker 3: lose this one.

1946
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:16,240
Speaker 2: You know, they have to find a way to protect him,

1947
01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:19,640
Speaker 2: with or without Trent Brown playing for the Colts. I

1948
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 2: talk about protect I'm talking about Matt Jones. I mean,

1949
01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:26,479
Speaker 2: I'm surprised really that Bill Belichick has stayed with him

1950
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,559
Speaker 2: this long. But if you watched the game last week,

1951
01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:31,759
Speaker 2: he was playing everybody in the secondary on the defensive

1952
01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 2: side of the football. Everybody got a chance to play.

1953
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:37,000
Speaker 2: And Bill Belichick was questioned about that, you know, are

1954
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:38,640
Speaker 2: you looking for next year? Are you doing this? And

1955
01:30:38,640 --> 01:30:40,680
Speaker 2: he just said everybody got a chance to play. So

1956
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:44,880
Speaker 2: I think it's Bill Belichick's I guess disciplinary action that

1957
01:30:44,960 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 2: he's being somewhat of a toughie, which he is. He's

1958
01:30:47,560 --> 01:30:49,599
Speaker 2: an old school kind of guy, and I think he's

1959
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,559
Speaker 2: putting some guys in the backseat who haven't been performing.

1960
01:30:52,760 --> 01:30:55,400
Speaker 2: He wouldn't stay that publicly. He wasn't embarrassed the players,

1961
01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 2: but I think that's what he did last week.

1962
01:30:57,240 --> 01:30:58,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, Becky, these.

1963
01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:00,520
Speaker 2: Guys weren't playing. He just didn't start him.

1964
01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:02,639
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, look at they left J. C. Jackson,

1965
01:31:02,680 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 3: they traded for him. He had a couple of great games. Right, Statistically,

1966
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:07,639
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, he's back in a system he likes

1967
01:31:07,920 --> 01:31:10,519
Speaker 3: and everything's great, and then he doesn't show up for

1968
01:31:10,560 --> 01:31:12,639
Speaker 3: work on time, so he gets left home.

1969
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:17,599
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now I'm with him on that. Like, no matter

1970
01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:20,200
Speaker 1: what's going on, if you're Bill Belichick, like, there's certain

1971
01:31:20,240 --> 01:31:23,000
Speaker 1: things that are standards and expectations of the program, and

1972
01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:25,200
Speaker 1: you can't bend on those things, regardless of the record,

1973
01:31:25,439 --> 01:31:27,599
Speaker 1: because if he starts bending on those things, it would

1974
01:31:27,640 --> 01:31:31,360
Speaker 1: just completely fall apart. There's still hope. I would think

1975
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:34,200
Speaker 1: that he can salvage the situation. He has to believe

1976
01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:37,680
Speaker 1: in that and so not kind of bending on those

1977
01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:41,040
Speaker 1: principles I'm with overall though this team.

1978
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:42,280
Speaker 4: This team is losing.

1979
01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:44,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, people can talk about the talent deficit of whatever,

1980
01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:48,639
Speaker 1: but this team we've never seen in a Patriots team

1981
01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,360
Speaker 1: over the past twenty years, right prior to like Tom

1982
01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:55,599
Speaker 1: Brady departing, we never saw this team beat themselves. More

1983
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,000
Speaker 1: than anything, they were the team that even when they

1984
01:31:58,000 --> 01:31:59,920
Speaker 1: didn't have the talent, they always had the big joker

1985
01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:02,400
Speaker 1: and the holster in terms of Tom Brady, but they

1986
01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:05,600
Speaker 1: would wait for you to implode and they would seize.

1987
01:32:06,240 --> 01:32:09,200
Speaker 1: They would take advantage of the opportunities that you give them.

1988
01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:11,639
Speaker 1: Now they are the ones that are giving the ball

1989
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:16,000
Speaker 1: away on turnovers, stupid penalties. They can't get lined up

1990
01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:19,920
Speaker 1: so they're blowing assignments. We've never seen this, So to me,

1991
01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick has assembled a team that's not really like

1992
01:32:25,360 --> 01:32:27,879
Speaker 1: the version that he wants. He normally has a smart

1993
01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:31,960
Speaker 1: team that plays discipline in detailed. They're not that, and

1994
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:34,479
Speaker 1: I don't know where it went wrong, but they certainly

1995
01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:36,639
Speaker 1: aren't like the teams that we've seen in the past,

1996
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:38,320

Speaker 3: going to be played here later on at SOFI Stadium,

2014
01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:37,599
Speaker 3: a team that is suddenly America's darling and the one

2015
01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:39,960
Speaker 3: that in Los Angeles. It's been a lot of wishing

2016
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:43,519
Speaker 3: and hoping. Can they the hoping side of things? I mean,

2017
01:33:43,560 --> 01:33:46,320
Speaker 3: it is the holiday season really early, and I'm taking

2018
01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:49,760
Speaker 3: great liberties here. Can they get a holiday gift for

2019
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:53,000

01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:38,240
Speaker 3: what am I doing here? But it's reality as the

2033
01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:42,600
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions and their fans that we've seen one of

2034
01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:46,840
Speaker 3: those teams that's starting to travel really well. You know,

2035
01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:49,320
Speaker 3: winning will do that for you. They're coming out here

2036
01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:52,400
Speaker 3: to Los Angeles and they're taking over Hollywood and everything else.

2037
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:56,439
Speaker 3: Three point favorites on the road. The Chargers, still trying

2038
01:34:56,479 --> 01:34:58,719
Speaker 3: to figure out how to generate any kind of offense

2039
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:02,040
Speaker 3: in the second half, bought a fun team to watch

2040
01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:05,400
Speaker 3: at times. Keenan Allen's stat for days and while Joey

2041
01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:08,759
Speaker 3: Bosa and Khalil Mack one of the great dynamic duos

2042
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:12,360
Speaker 3: in the pass rush game. But Andy, you know, taking

2043
01:35:12,400 --> 01:35:16,040
Speaker 3: on the identity of their coach, Dan Campbell, and we

2044
01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:18,600
Speaker 3: talk about coaching quite a bit. Man, this is a

2045
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:21,439
Speaker 3: team that suddenly has become one of America's teams. Here.

2046
01:35:21,439 --> 01:35:23,960
Speaker 3: Who would have thought that nobody's better for them to

2047
01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:25,599
Speaker 3: be taking off Thanksgiving this year?

2048
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,400
Speaker 2: You know, I mentioned as a buckets kind of seconded

2049
01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:31,040
Speaker 2: earlier today we talked about this is a team that

2050
01:35:31,120 --> 01:35:35,040
Speaker 2: had no expectations at all, and now their expectations are

2051
01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:37,360
Speaker 2: larger than life. And it's great, great for the fans

2052
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:39,719
Speaker 2: of Detroit. And they're playing a team that right now

2053
01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:42,519
Speaker 2: has a defensive weakness. They can't defend the pass. I

2054
01:35:42,520 --> 01:35:44,400
Speaker 2: want to talk about the charges right now. So I'm

2055
01:35:44,439 --> 01:35:46,799
Speaker 2: looking for a big game out of the Monros. Saint Brown,

2056
01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:50,160
Speaker 2: Jamison Williams, Sam Laport of the tight end. I mean

2057
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:51,559
Speaker 2: it's going to be a real big game. I think the

2058
01:35:51,600 --> 01:35:54,759
Speaker 2: Lions winning it went big like something like thirty thirty, fifteen,

2059
01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:58,479
Speaker 2: thirty seventeen, something like that, because honestly, I just think

2060
01:35:58,479 --> 01:36:00,760
Speaker 2: the Lions right now are on the best teams in

2061
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:02,920
Speaker 2: the league. You talk about the top three teams the league,

2062
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:05,120
Speaker 2: you gotta mention the Detroit Lions the six and two.

2063
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:08,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they absolutely one of the top teams in

2064
01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:10,920
Speaker 1: the league. And it's not even just like them winning.

2065
01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:13,400
Speaker 1: I would say the thing that they have done a

2066
01:36:13,400 --> 01:36:16,280
Speaker 1: great job of is their brand is on display every week,

2067
01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:19,719
Speaker 1: meaning they talk about being tough and gritty and physical.

2068
01:36:21,120 --> 01:36:24,040
Speaker 1: See that, and what I see is a team that

2069
01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:26,839
Speaker 1: certainly understands who they are. They play to their strems.

2070
01:36:26,840 --> 01:36:29,000
Speaker 1: They have a dominant offensive line, They move people off

2071
01:36:29,040 --> 01:36:31,320
Speaker 1: the ball. Defensively, they gotten so much better because they

2072
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:33,439
Speaker 1: simplified what they do on defense. Went for being a

2073
01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:35,880
Speaker 1: man and man team to his own team. Aaron Glenn

2074
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:38,320
Speaker 1: deserves a lot of credit for what he's done. And

2075
01:36:38,360 --> 01:36:44,599
Speaker 1: they play hard and I can't understeal like that trait

2076
01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:48,679
Speaker 1: of just playing hard, playing from snap to whistle, finishing plays,

2077
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:51,559
Speaker 1: being physical and all that. They become one of the

2078
01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:52,839
Speaker 1: teams that you hate to face.

2079
01:36:52,960 --> 01:36:57,280
Speaker 3: Well and this week and look, Jared Goff always dominant

2080
01:36:57,280 --> 01:36:59,920
Speaker 3: at home on the road. A little bit of me

2081
01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:03,439
Speaker 3: still three and one, but the percentages and number of

2082
01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:06,800
Speaker 3: sacks and touchdown, the interception, whatever kind of dips. But

2083
01:37:06,840 --> 01:37:10,400
Speaker 3: you get David Montgomery back, and certainly I've got Mark

2084
01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:13,880
Speaker 3: as our technical producer. We remember David Montgomery running well

2085
01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,720
Speaker 3: for the Bears fairly consistently, and then he gets a

2086
01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:19,200
Speaker 3: giant deal to go over to Detroit and remember what

2087
01:37:19,280 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 3: he did before his injury. The fact that you can

2088
01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:26,519
Speaker 3: still play the game as they do with Jamiir Gibbs

2089
01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:28,640
Speaker 3: and you don't have to overload them. I mean, it

2090
01:37:28,720 --> 01:37:32,320
Speaker 3: sets up for a really nice second half for the

2091
01:37:32,360 --> 01:37:35,559
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions offensive. He's still trying to bring Jamison Williams

2092
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:38,640
Speaker 3: really into the fold, right, Sam Laporta. I mean, you

2093
01:37:38,720 --> 01:37:41,120
Speaker 3: got more offense out of him this year than Iowa

2094
01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,040
Speaker 3: has in all their games combined. See what I did there.

2095
01:37:44,840 --> 01:37:48,360
Speaker 2: The late breaking news, late breaking news story. Justin Herbert

2096
01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:51,160
Speaker 2: was up all last night thinking about Aiden Hutchetson. He

2097
01:37:51,200 --> 01:37:54,160
Speaker 2: had nightmares. That late breaking news story right.

2098
01:37:54,080 --> 01:38:00,240
Speaker 3: There, there you go, Bucky Andy Furman, NFL Insider, I

2099
01:38:00,320 --> 01:38:02,679
Speaker 3: kind of dig well, yeah, I mean, those pass rushers

2100
01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:05,200
Speaker 3: will give you a fit, there's no question about it,

2101
01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:07,640
Speaker 3: trying to figure out, especially when you had a his

2102
01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:11,200
Speaker 3: I mean, look, let's face it, the Chargers leaky offensive

2103
01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:14,360
Speaker 3: line at times been solidified with Slater being back there.

2104
01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:17,000
Speaker 3: But what do you make of the fact that you

2105
01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:19,400
Speaker 3: know in the second half of games here, Bucky. I mean,

2106
01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:22,000
Speaker 3: you've been around the league, playing in the league. I

2107
01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:24,599
Speaker 3: mean as a as a defensive player, as a guy

2108
01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:27,120
Speaker 3: on a squad, you know you're doing your best trying

2109
01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 3: to hold down the ford and the offense isn't isn't

2110
01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:34,519
Speaker 3: getting anything together. Eckler's starting to move a little more

2111
01:38:35,479 --> 01:38:38,439
Speaker 3: as a runner, right, He's been a pass receiver. That's great.

2112
01:38:38,680 --> 01:38:41,880
Speaker 3: But outside of Keenan Allen, they've got nothing else established.

2113
01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:45,560
Speaker 3: It's tough going for Justin Herbert and certainly well we

2114
01:38:45,840 --> 01:38:48,840
Speaker 3: don't even we haven't even mentioned Brandon Sdale. He's like Voldeborg,

2115
01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:50,680
Speaker 3: he who must not be named.

2116
01:38:51,880 --> 01:38:55,559
Speaker 1: M I know, like it is, it is funny when

2117
01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:57,560
Speaker 1: you mentioned that, like Brandon Staley, I don't say he

2118
01:38:57,800 --> 01:39:00,920
Speaker 1: gets the ultimate pass, but he has done a really good.

2119
01:39:00,800 --> 01:39:01,479
Speaker 4: Job with this team.

2120
01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:03,680
Speaker 1: I see a team that's very talented on paper, but

2121
01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:07,599
Speaker 1: they don't play to the talent in reality. And if

2122
01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:09,920
Speaker 1: you're the Spanos family and you're looking at this team

2123
01:39:09,920 --> 01:39:12,520
Speaker 1: and you're trying to figure out, why are we underachieving?

2124
01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:16,600
Speaker 1: Is I always say the mismanagement of personnel. At the

2125
01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:19,000
Speaker 1: end of the day, the game is really simple. Your

2126
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:21,519
Speaker 1: best players have to have the most opportunities to pick

2127
01:39:21,600 --> 01:39:25,320
Speaker 1: the biggest impact on the game. That's your job. When

2128
01:39:25,320 --> 01:39:28,200
Speaker 1: you're coaching your team on defense, your job is to

2129
01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:32,080
Speaker 1: make sure that the best players from the opposition they

2130
01:39:32,160 --> 01:39:34,559
Speaker 1: don't have those opportunities. You take them away, you make

2131
01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:36,519
Speaker 1: them beat you left handed. We've seen that for years

2132
01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:38,920
Speaker 1: and it's worked out for the Patriots and others. They

2133
01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:40,559
Speaker 1: take an approach of we want to make the team

2134
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:42,760
Speaker 1: play left handed. When I look at the charges, the

2135
01:39:42,840 --> 01:39:46,640
Speaker 1: charges fail to do so consistently, and it's one of

2136
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:48,720
Speaker 1: the things that you wish they could do because this

2137
01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:49,400
Speaker 1: is a talented thing.

2138
01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:51,280
Speaker 4: I love justin Herbert, I love the weapons that they have.

2139
01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:53,519
Speaker 1: They just don't play to their strengths, and you just

2140
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:56,240
Speaker 1: wonder would they ever get it together. And when you

2141
01:39:56,280 --> 01:40:00,519
Speaker 1: take that part with the analytical I would say the

2142
01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:03,800
Speaker 1: analytical miscues. Maybe that's the best way to phrase it.

2143
01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:04,320
Speaker 3: Very kind.

2144
01:40:04,640 --> 01:40:07,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you see, yeah, when you see some of

2145
01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:10,160
Speaker 1: those flubs and things, it makes it very very challenging

2146
01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:13,120
Speaker 1: to see how this team can continue to go on

2147
01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:14,280
Speaker 1: on accurance setup.

2148
01:40:15,080 --> 01:40:17,120
Speaker 2: All right, well, I will say this in defense of

2149
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:20,439
Speaker 2: the Chargers. Think about this. Three of the four losses

2150
01:40:20,439 --> 01:40:23,920
Speaker 2: were against pretty tough competition. They lost to Kansas City,

2151
01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:26,519
Speaker 2: they lost to Dallas. They lost to Miami. Now they

2152
01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:28,320
Speaker 2: probably shouldn't have lost to Tennessee and that was an

2153
01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:30,800
Speaker 2: overtime loss twenty seven to twenty four. But even the

2154
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:32,920
Speaker 2: Miami game, the opening game of the year, it was

2155
01:40:32,920 --> 01:40:35,000
Speaker 2: a thirty six to thirty four loss. So, yeah, they

2156
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:37,680
Speaker 2: lost three of those games to top notch teams, and

2157
01:40:37,720 --> 01:40:40,360
Speaker 2: they really weren't blown out. I mean, the Kansas City

2158
01:40:40,400 --> 01:40:43,679
Speaker 2: game was thirty one to seventeen. Other than that, Seriously,

2159
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:45,360
Speaker 2: I mean, you got to give them someone of a

2160
01:40:45,439 --> 01:40:47,600
Speaker 2: pass losing to those teams because I don't think the

2161
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:50,240
Speaker 2: Chargers are in that caliber of talents.

2162
01:40:50,360 --> 01:40:52,760
Speaker 3: Well, but that's the thing is that coming into the year,

2163
01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:56,840
Speaker 3: the expectations were high, right, Obviously, they gacked away that

2164
01:40:56,960 --> 01:41:00,680
Speaker 3: game in the playoffs to your Jaguars Bucky. So there

2165
01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:03,280
Speaker 3: was a bad taste in everybody's mouth, but the expectations

2166
01:41:03,320 --> 01:41:06,360
Speaker 3: were sky high. Once again, you lose Mike Williams to injury.

2167
01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:09,360
Speaker 3: You go through a lot of advanced stats and go

2168
01:41:09,439 --> 01:41:12,200
Speaker 3: through the guy was having a great year, and once

2169
01:41:12,240 --> 01:41:15,160
Speaker 3: again he goes down and there's not another option. They

2170
01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:18,840
Speaker 3: drafted Johnston in the first round thinking he was going

2171
01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:20,920
Speaker 3: to become an impact player. I mean, the guy's on

2172
01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,839
Speaker 3: the side of a milk carton right now most games

2173
01:41:24,040 --> 01:41:26,679
Speaker 3: and he can't get involved in He's six ' five

2174
01:41:26,680 --> 01:41:30,439
Speaker 3: and he's invisible. How does that happen? I mean, it's

2175
01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:33,080
Speaker 3: just unbelievable. So you know you're trying to figure out

2176
01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:36,639
Speaker 3: and then you lose one of your reliable secondary guys

2177
01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:40,960
Speaker 3: is Joshua Palmer and he's on IR so you're bringing

2178
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:43,559
Speaker 3: back Geyton, et cetera. I mean, because this is you're

2179
01:41:43,600 --> 01:41:46,120
Speaker 3: actually maximizing time. This is the first time in a

2180
01:41:46,160 --> 01:41:50,200
Speaker 3: while that you've seen Eckler, Bosa and Derwin James all

2181
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:54,840
Speaker 3: on the field together. Right, Historically you've been playing shorthanded

2182
01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:57,960
Speaker 3: with those guys all shelved. Now they're back and you're

2183
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:01,400
Speaker 3: still not quite getting over now. They've got a little

2184
01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:05,200
Speaker 3: thing going started with that slacking of a hapless Bear

2185
01:42:05,280 --> 01:42:08,320
Speaker 3: squad a couple of weeks ago. I was live and

2186
01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:10,640
Speaker 3: in person for that. The only thing that saved it

2187
01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 3: was an endless flow of medello. That's all I can say.

2188
01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:21,080
Speaker 3: Mike Harmon alongside Andy Furman Bucket Year Fox Sports Radio, Hey,

2189
01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:22,840
Speaker 3: you know it made the night a little better and

2190
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:25,559
Speaker 3: the company that I was with, so it's all good

2191
01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:28,800
Speaker 3: by me. Coming up next, we'll turn our attention away

2192
01:42:28,800 --> 01:42:31,080
Speaker 3: from the games for a minute. You know, we talked

2193
01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:33,880
Speaker 3: about coaching. We brought up Belichick before I got to

2194
01:42:33,880 --> 01:42:38,080
Speaker 3: asked the questions like what kind of staffing inclusions can

2195
01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:40,760
Speaker 3: a guy like me be for an NFL team to

2196
01:42:40,880 --> 01:42:43,280
Speaker 3: protect coaches from getting in front of a podium and

2197
01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:46,280
Speaker 3: looking like an idiot. We'll talk about that next. Andy,

2198
01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:48,800
Speaker 3: I think you got a whole other vocation that's ready

2199
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:50,880
Speaker 3: for us. First, we're gonna pick it over to Kevin

2200
01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:53,320
Speaker 3: Wyre get an update on what's trending. Yeah, we got

2201
01:42:53,320 --> 01:42:56,680
Speaker 3: some injury updates for you. Ian Rappaport out with some

2202
01:42:56,840 --> 01:43:00,840
Speaker 3: updates for this Germany game Patriots and Colts. Patriots wide

2203
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 3: receiver Pop Douglas is active as his quarterback Jack Jones.

2204
01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:08,920
Speaker 3: Linebacker Juwan Bentley is out he has a hamstring issue.

2205
01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,120
Speaker 3: Cold Twide receiver Josh Downs is still dealing with a

2206
01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:13,599
Speaker 3: knee injury that he had surgery on in the spring.

2207
01:43:13,640 --> 01:43:18,200
Speaker 3: He is officially active after being listed as questionable. Now.

2208
01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:20,679
Speaker 3: When it comes to forty nine Ers left tackle Trent Williams,

2209
01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:23,800
Speaker 3: we had some conflicting reports. Adam Schefter earlier this evening

2210
01:43:23,960 --> 01:43:26,919
Speaker 3: saying that he is expected to play despite being questionable

2211
01:43:26,920 --> 01:43:29,599
Speaker 3: with his ankle injury. Ian Rappaport, however, a couple hours ago,

2212
01:43:29,640 --> 01:43:32,559
Speaker 3: tweeted saying that it'll actually be an uphill battle for

2213
01:43:32,600 --> 01:43:35,439
Speaker 3: Williams to play against the Jaguars. He's gonna work out

2214
01:43:35,479 --> 01:43:37,360
Speaker 3: before the game to see if he can go, but

2215
01:43:37,400 --> 01:43:40,640
Speaker 3: it'll be a challenge, and then Adam Schefter less than

2216
01:43:40,720 --> 01:43:44,599
Speaker 3: half an hour ago saying that Williams adamant about playing

2217
01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:47,639
Speaker 3: and that he should be starting against the Jaguars today,

2218
01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:50,360
Speaker 3: So we'll see how that ends up turning out. Ian

2219
01:43:50,439 --> 01:43:53,519
Speaker 3: Rappaport with a couple other updates, as Commander's wide receiver

2220
01:43:53,600 --> 01:43:56,000
Speaker 3: Curtis Samuel expected to play. He's been dealing with a

2221
01:43:56,040 --> 01:43:59,280
Speaker 3: toe issue listed as questionable. Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase

2222
01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:02,120
Speaker 3: considered fifty to fifty at best to play. He is

2223
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,479
Speaker 3: a back injury and while he doesn't have any structural

2224
01:44:04,560 --> 01:44:06,679
Speaker 3: damage in it, he's in severe pain and is unclear

2225
01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:09,479
Speaker 3: how functional he'll be. They'll keep open the door open

2226
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:12,240
Speaker 3: for him until game time to see if he can go.

2227
01:44:12,720 --> 01:44:15,639
Speaker 3: Vikings tight end TJ. Hockinson is questionable with a weird

2228
01:44:15,840 --> 01:44:19,000
Speaker 3: rib injury. He is expected to go today. Wide receiver

2229
01:44:19,080 --> 01:44:22,680
Speaker 3: kJ Osborne has cleared the concussion protocol, however, still not

2230
01:44:22,800 --> 01:44:26,280
Speaker 3: certain to play. Was a significant hit he took in Minnesota.

2231
01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:30,519
Speaker 3: Does want to check him today and Rappaport also saying

2232
01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:34,800
Speaker 3: Ravens running back Heaton Mitchelluhart his hamstring earlier this week.

2233
01:44:34,840 --> 01:44:37,599
Speaker 3: He was a full participating practice on Friday. Is expected

2234
01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:42,400
Speaker 3: to play. Pro Bowl quarterback Marlin Humphries is optimistic about playing, however,

2235
01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:45,639
Speaker 3: he does need to clear a pregame warm up first.

2236
01:44:45,640 --> 01:44:49,360
Speaker 3: And in college football full slit of action yesterday, in

2237
01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:53,080
Speaker 3: the all top four teams winning Ohio State rules against

2238
01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:55,960
Speaker 3: Michigan State thirty eight to three, there are tribal number three.

2239
01:44:56,120 --> 01:44:58,280
Speaker 3: Michigan goes on the road and beats number ten Penn

2240
01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:00,839
Speaker 3: State twenty four to fifteen. So that'll be a pivotal

2241
01:45:00,840 --> 01:45:04,160
Speaker 3: matchup potentially two top three teams in ann Arbor. A

2242
01:45:04,160 --> 01:45:07,840
Speaker 3: couple of weeks from now, Georgia the defending champions. They

2243
01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:10,000
Speaker 3: were in the top ten matchup with number nine Ole

2244
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:12,000
Speaker 3: Miss but it made it look like an FCS game

2245
01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:15,879
Speaker 3: as Georgia fifty two to seventeen winners against the Rebels

2246
01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:22,520
Speaker 3: and Florida State had to escape against Miami and interception

2247
01:45:22,600 --> 01:45:24,920
Speaker 3: on the Hurricanes last drive sealing the win for the

2248
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 3: Seminals twenty seven to twenty and in the game of

2249
01:45:28,120 --> 01:45:31,799
Speaker 3: the day at the PAC twelve, number five Washington holding

2250
01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:35,400
Speaker 3: on and escapes against number eighteen Utah thirty five to

2251
01:45:35,439 --> 01:45:38,400
Speaker 3: twenty eight. So Washington looking to potentially jump into the

2252
01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:41,600
Speaker 3: top four, depending on if they can stay undefeated the

2253
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:44,759
Speaker 3: last couple of games, as well as leapfrog the loser

2254
01:45:44,840 --> 01:45:47,519
Speaker 3: of Ohio State and Michigan. Back to you guys, thanks

2255
01:45:47,560 --> 01:45:50,920
Speaker 3: so much, Kevin, appreciate you. It's Fox Football Sunday Live

2256
01:45:50,960 --> 01:45:54,040
Speaker 3: from the Tyraq dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios Mike

2257
01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:58,400
Speaker 3: Carmt alongside Andy Furman, Bucky Brooks, lots of games out

2258
01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:02,400
Speaker 3: there today, about half the slate truly intriguing on a

2259
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:05,799
Speaker 3: whole other level. Some great matchups, some great divisional matchups,

2260
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:09,679
Speaker 3: some historical names getting together. But from the coaching angle,

2261
01:46:10,240 --> 01:46:12,760
Speaker 3: and it's something that I mean, obviously, we love to

2262
01:46:12,800 --> 01:46:14,800
Speaker 3: play with words, and we have fun with him, and

2263
01:46:15,120 --> 01:46:17,760
Speaker 3: certainly we put our you know, respective feet in our

2264
01:46:17,800 --> 01:46:24,000
Speaker 3: mouths with great regularity, predictions gone wrong, misspeaking, trying to

2265
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:26,360
Speaker 3: figure out how to be clever and turn a phrase,

2266
01:46:26,400 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 3: and sometimes well it falls flat. It was funny. Kevin

2267
01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:32,840
Speaker 3: gave us a couple of the injury updates and he said,

2268
01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:35,360
Speaker 3: pop Douglas, and I'm like, oh, I got to remind

2269
01:46:35,360 --> 01:46:37,559
Speaker 3: folks that's de Mario Douglas, because if he didn't get

2270
01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:40,320
Speaker 3: claimed in your fantasy league, he was a guy that

2271
01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:42,800
Speaker 3: you probably wanted to go find. So take a look

2272
01:46:43,280 --> 01:46:47,320
Speaker 3: at his availability, as well as you know Mitchell over

2273
01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:52,160
Speaker 3: there in Baltimore, two guys that were big weapons last year.

2274
01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:55,280
Speaker 3: Last week. But when we look at the coaching standpoint,

2275
01:46:55,320 --> 01:46:57,920
Speaker 3: you guys were talking about Robert Salah and the I

2276
01:46:58,040 --> 01:47:01,840
Speaker 3: plead the fifth a little bit earlier, Josh McDaniels. We've

2277
01:47:01,880 --> 01:47:05,160
Speaker 3: got so many reports that came out about how things

2278
01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:09,080
Speaker 3: were handled behind the scenes, and certainly, you know, in

2279
01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:13,880
Speaker 3: front of cameras. We've seen Lincoln Riley look less than

2280
01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:18,080
Speaker 3: in front of cameras when responding to different parts of

2281
01:47:18,080 --> 01:47:21,160
Speaker 3: this team. Now getting rid of the defensive coordinator that

2282
01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:24,720
Speaker 3: was one part of the lineup that he didn't have

2283
01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:27,800
Speaker 3: to deal with necessarily the same questions because at this

2284
01:47:27,880 --> 01:47:31,080
Speaker 3: point expecting change, well you're not getting there. But the

2285
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:34,280
Speaker 3: king of it all has been Matt Eberfluss, who took

2286
01:47:34,360 --> 01:47:37,160
Speaker 3: a minute forty five the other day to fight with

2287
01:47:37,280 --> 01:47:42,200
Speaker 3: reporters about, you know, whether Justin Fields was out or

2288
01:47:42,240 --> 01:47:45,599
Speaker 3: what he was doubtful And in the you know moment,

2289
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:47,679
Speaker 3: he said the quiet thing in his head out loud

2290
01:47:47,680 --> 01:47:50,720
Speaker 3: when he responded to a guy who followed up by going, oh, yeah,

2291
01:47:50,760 --> 01:47:52,960
Speaker 3: he's not gonna play, So wait a minute, is he

2292
01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:56,160
Speaker 3: out or is he doubt And even in the post game,

2293
01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:59,360
Speaker 3: you know, hey, you know, we were asking the big

2294
01:47:59,439 --> 01:48:03,880
Speaker 3: questions because there were just some situational terrible football coaching. Now,

2295
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:07,679
Speaker 3: they made the right play call and it was executed well,

2296
01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:12,040
Speaker 3: but didn't realize that a team was out of timeouts

2297
01:48:13,160 --> 01:48:16,599
Speaker 3: and instead threw the ball on third and seven, talked

2298
01:48:16,600 --> 01:48:18,360
Speaker 3: about it like, you know, there would have been a

2299
01:48:18,400 --> 01:48:21,280
Speaker 3: time out if they'd run the football, and plenty of

2300
01:48:21,320 --> 01:48:24,640
Speaker 3: time for Carolina to still potentially get the win. And

2301
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:27,679
Speaker 3: I'm sitting there, going, we do have people on staff

2302
01:48:27,760 --> 01:48:31,639
Speaker 3: that handle this, right, Hey, coach, here's five things you're

2303
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:34,360
Speaker 3: probably gonna be asked when you step to the podium.

2304
01:48:34,439 --> 01:48:36,760
Speaker 3: Can we go over these real quick? There's gotta be

2305
01:48:36,800 --> 01:48:40,439
Speaker 3: someone hired to do this, Bucky. And week after week

2306
01:48:40,479 --> 01:48:42,920
Speaker 3: I'm watching coaches go up there and I get it.

2307
01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:46,040
Speaker 3: You're the big, swinging guy that's running around with millions

2308
01:48:46,040 --> 01:48:48,640
Speaker 3: of dollars in your contract at all, but sometimes you

2309
01:48:48,720 --> 01:48:50,599
Speaker 3: just look like an idiot with some of these things

2310
01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:53,800
Speaker 3: you're saying. You know, sala was on a paid for

2311
01:48:54,479 --> 01:48:58,599
Speaker 3: several days later radio call with Michael k and still

2312
01:48:58,640 --> 01:48:59,920
Speaker 3: couldn't get out of his own way.

2313
01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:02,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, not the best.

2314
01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:05,080
Speaker 1: And it's one of the parts of the job that

2315
01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:08,759
Speaker 1: you need training. You know, you need to have training

2316
01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:10,720
Speaker 1: on how to deal with the media, how to give

2317
01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:13,639
Speaker 1: answers that are non answers, you know, and that look

2318
01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:15,679
Speaker 1: like an idiot while doing so. The fact that Robert

2319
01:49:15,720 --> 01:49:18,320
Speaker 1: Salace stood in front of the press corps and talked

2320
01:49:18,360 --> 01:49:23,200
Speaker 1: about pleading the fifth when discussing the quarterback. To me,

2321
01:49:23,439 --> 01:49:27,960
Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. Either you give them answer, you say he's

2322
01:49:27,960 --> 01:49:29,680
Speaker 1: that guy, we can continue to go with them, or

2323
01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:33,200
Speaker 1: we evaluate all things. But to plead the fifth like

2324
01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:37,440
Speaker 1: to throw your hands up to me was just egregious

2325
01:49:37,439 --> 01:49:40,519
Speaker 1: and I just it not only impacts like how we

2326
01:49:40,720 --> 01:49:43,599
Speaker 1: view Robert Solam, but how you think Zach Wilson feels

2327
01:49:43,600 --> 01:49:46,280
Speaker 1: when the coach pleas the fifth on whether you should

2328
01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:47,080
Speaker 1: be starting or not.

2329
01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:48,960
Speaker 4: It's just a.

2330
01:49:48,920 --> 01:49:51,519
Speaker 1: Bad look and it's one of those from a leadership standpoint,

2331
01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:52,320
Speaker 1: it should never happen.

2332
01:49:54,120 --> 01:49:56,400
Speaker 2: You know. I sometimes think when the coaches get in

2333
01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:59,599
Speaker 2: front of the media, I think they're entertainers. I really believe.

2334
01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:04,200
Speaker 3: I think you're and I think to a certain extent sometimes

2335
01:50:04,200 --> 01:50:06,720
Speaker 3: they want to be buddy buddy with these media people.

2336
01:50:06,479 --> 01:50:08,280
Speaker 2: And that's not going to work because if you have

2337
01:50:08,320 --> 01:50:10,439
Speaker 2: a story, you can't hide it from them, and you

2338
01:50:10,439 --> 01:50:11,840
Speaker 2: should not hod it for them. And I'll give you

2339
01:50:11,880 --> 01:50:14,360
Speaker 2: the example. Back in the day, I was working for

2340
01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:16,280
Speaker 2: the Robbie Family. I was the PR guy for the

2341
01:50:16,280 --> 01:50:19,320
Speaker 2: four Lorda Deale Strikers, but they also won the Miami Dolphins,

2342
01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:21,400
Speaker 2: and I helped the Dolphins out in tr and they

2343
01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:23,400
Speaker 2: had one of the greatest PR guys ever. I learned

2344
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:26,160
Speaker 2: a lot from Charlie. The late Charlie Callahan used to

2345
01:50:26,200 --> 01:50:28,559
Speaker 2: work with Notre Dame and then when he left Ojo

2346
01:50:28,600 --> 01:50:30,680
Speaker 2: Dame Joe Robbie was a Notre Dame guy and he

2347
01:50:30,760 --> 01:50:33,040
Speaker 2: rest in peace. He brought Charlie over from Notre Dame

2348
01:50:33,080 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 2: to be the PR guy to Dolphins. Now, look, you're

2349
01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:37,320
Speaker 2: dealing with a Don Schuler at the time, so the

2350
01:50:37,360 --> 01:50:40,479
Speaker 2: media was intimidated from day one from Don Shuler. And

2351
01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:42,679
Speaker 2: if you came to a press conference slate, he chewed

2352
01:50:42,680 --> 01:50:45,400
Speaker 2: you out in front of everybody. So there's an intimidation factor.

2353
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:47,360
Speaker 2: These guys weren't going to ask him like these Wyse

2354
01:50:47,439 --> 01:50:49,880
Speaker 2: asked questions. But still in old Charlie would get a

2355
01:50:49,920 --> 01:50:51,920
Speaker 2: hold of Don and say, look, they're going to ask

2356
01:50:51,960 --> 01:50:54,240
Speaker 2: you this, do this, do this, and don't do this.

2357
01:50:54,439 --> 01:50:57,519
Speaker 2: But Don Shuler was smart, just like Bill Belichick. It's

2358
01:50:57,560 --> 01:50:59,760
Speaker 2: not going to happen to Bill Belichick. Last week there

2359
01:50:59,800 --> 01:51:03,519
Speaker 2: was rumblings that if he loses today against the Indianapolis Colts,

2360
01:51:03,720 --> 01:51:05,560
Speaker 2: his job may be in jeopardy. So what do you

2361
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:08,879
Speaker 2: think about that, Bill, He says, I'm preparing for the Colts.

2362
01:51:09,160 --> 01:51:11,240
Speaker 2: You know, you've got to be smart. You got to

2363
01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:13,000
Speaker 2: know what you're going to talk about. So I think

2364
01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:15,479
Speaker 2: the PR guy his job is not just to give

2365
01:51:15,640 --> 01:51:18,840
Speaker 2: stats and some of these guys just stat geeks. These

2366
01:51:18,880 --> 01:51:22,080
Speaker 2: guys have to train and tell not only coaches but

2367
01:51:22,200 --> 01:51:25,920
Speaker 2: players how to act after games and during news conferences

2368
01:51:26,160 --> 01:51:28,160
Speaker 2: really well on the face of the team.

2369
01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:30,679
Speaker 3: Well, and that's the thing, Andy, right, It's it's also

2370
01:51:30,720 --> 01:51:33,240
Speaker 3: a different world back in the day. You know, even

2371
01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:35,759
Speaker 3: for the best teams. I mean, unless we're talking Super

2372
01:51:35,800 --> 01:51:39,559
Speaker 3: Bowl or playoff runs, you know, you're dealing with mostly

2373
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:42,320
Speaker 3: the same local media. You'll have a couple of guys

2374
01:51:43,200 --> 01:51:45,200
Speaker 3: and women that would have found their way into the

2375
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:49,000
Speaker 3: room to talk to you because of you know, circumstance

2376
01:51:49,040 --> 01:51:52,479
Speaker 3: and advanced opponents or whatever the case may be. You know,

2377
01:51:52,560 --> 01:51:55,200
Speaker 3: the team you just played. But now you start opening

2378
01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:58,519
Speaker 3: it up to bloggers and and I don't say that,

2379
01:51:58,720 --> 01:52:01,720
Speaker 3: you know, with any derision and or anything, but you've

2380
01:52:01,760 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 3: just got a lot of different folks that the you know,

2381
01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:07,719
Speaker 3: the angle that they're trying to get onto a game

2382
01:52:08,560 --> 01:52:10,519
Speaker 3: is going to be different. You know, to your point

2383
01:52:10,520 --> 01:52:12,680
Speaker 3: you use the word wise ass. Yeah, we've got a

2384
01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:15,599
Speaker 3: lot of those guys that show up at different press

2385
01:52:15,600 --> 01:52:17,559
Speaker 3: conferences to try you guys.

2386
01:52:17,560 --> 01:52:19,280
Speaker 2: They want to make their name for themselves as well.

2387
01:52:19,520 --> 01:52:22,320
Speaker 2: They're gonna ask this supid questions. Hey, you know, hey, coach,

2388
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,720
Speaker 2: maybe you missed that quote because you were out too

2389
01:52:24,800 --> 01:52:26,679
Speaker 2: late last night. Babe, you know what I mean. They're

2390
01:52:26,680 --> 01:52:28,320
Speaker 2: gonna do that so they could get some attention.

2391
01:52:28,600 --> 01:52:31,840
Speaker 3: Are you referring to that ring video that started circulating

2392
01:52:31,840 --> 01:52:37,000
Speaker 3: that mayor Mat Belichick? I take the fifth nicely, Don

2393
01:52:37,120 --> 01:52:40,759
Speaker 3: Robert Salah, I appreciate you and the cut of your jib.

2394
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:46,200
Speaker 3: That's Andy Ferrin, give us a little That was good.

Speaker 3: active slots on your roster. And in forty five minutes

Speaker 3: of them, but I'll be there and I'll be ready

2413
01:53:44,880 --> 01:53:50,000
Speaker 3: to watch as Jonathan Taylor and Ramandre Stevenson try to

2414
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:53,880
Speaker 3: carry my fantasy teams to victories. Fellas some other great

2415
01:53:53,920 --> 01:53:57,200
Speaker 3: games on the slate. We've talked San Francisco, Jacksonville, we

2416
01:53:57,400 --> 01:54:01,799
Speaker 3: talked Detroit and the Chargers. That's in intriguing. Andy. Obviously,

2417
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:05,439
Speaker 3: you've got Houston and the wonder Kin coming to town

2418
01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:08,120
Speaker 3: there against the Bengals that are a team that's on

2419
01:54:08,160 --> 01:54:11,360
Speaker 3: the come. And when we talk metal stands in the AFC,

2420
01:54:12,240 --> 01:54:14,800
Speaker 3: I dare say the recent streak you got to be

2421
01:54:14,840 --> 01:54:16,640
Speaker 3: looking at the Bengals, and all of a sudden, the

2422
01:54:16,640 --> 01:54:19,120
Speaker 3: tone and tenor of that city must have really changed.

2423
01:54:20,439 --> 01:54:24,200
Speaker 2: You know, to me, if I'm Joe Burrow, you know

2424
01:54:25,320 --> 01:54:26,840
Speaker 2: I don't even don't want to go to my house.

2425
01:54:26,880 --> 01:54:28,720
Speaker 2: I mean, this guy is an EBB and flow. I

2426
01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:32,240
Speaker 2: mean they if he's hurt, people are morning their morning

2427
01:54:32,280 --> 01:54:34,760
Speaker 2: in the city. I mean now he's back, so he's

2428
01:54:34,800 --> 01:54:38,680
Speaker 2: back full strength and they won four straight. You don't

2429
01:54:38,680 --> 01:54:40,560
Speaker 2: want to build a statue for this guy, a monument

2430
01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:43,080
Speaker 2: in front of the stadium. I mean, the people here

2431
01:54:43,240 --> 01:54:46,200
Speaker 2: are salivating over every movie he makes. And last week

2432
01:54:46,280 --> 01:54:50,200
Speaker 2: he came to the game where Diamond studded headphones. I mean,

2433
01:54:50,240 --> 01:54:52,320
Speaker 2: you know what I saw that on TV watching the

2434
01:54:52,360 --> 01:54:55,760
Speaker 2: game on TV, Diamond studied headphones walking into the locker room.

2435
01:54:55,760 --> 01:54:58,120
Speaker 2: Price of the game. You know, my first thought was,

2436
01:54:58,360 --> 01:54:59,640
Speaker 2: this guy makes too much money?

2437
01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:00,960
Speaker 3: What to do with money?

2438
01:55:01,520 --> 01:55:03,440
Speaker 2: Really? I mean, I mean, do you have to rub

2439
01:55:03,480 --> 01:55:05,960
Speaker 2: it in? And you know, look, I'm not I'm not

2440
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:08,200
Speaker 2: opposed to guys make a big money. I get it.

2441
01:55:08,360 --> 01:55:11,400
Speaker 2: You're entertainer. It's part of the TV package. You get money,

2442
01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:13,360
Speaker 2: you get to cut of the pie. But here's the deal.

2443
01:55:13,720 --> 01:55:17,920
Speaker 2: You got people that are giving their their life blood,

2444
01:55:18,200 --> 01:55:21,960
Speaker 2: Guys that are driving trucks and making minimum wage to

2445
01:55:22,080 --> 01:55:25,000
Speaker 2: watch you play, putting the tickets on their credit card.

2446
01:55:25,240 --> 01:55:27,400
Speaker 2: Maybe that's the one thing they get for Christmas and

2447
01:55:27,560 --> 01:55:30,240
Speaker 2: have to pay it off over time. To watch you play.

2448
01:55:30,560 --> 01:55:33,320
Speaker 2: You'll going to a game with diamonds started headphones. Shame

2449
01:55:33,400 --> 01:55:36,000
Speaker 2: on you. You want them, that's fine, wear them in your

2450
01:55:36,040 --> 01:55:39,560
Speaker 2: house for the privacy of your home. Don't, don't, don't

2451
01:55:39,600 --> 01:55:42,200
Speaker 2: broadcast it. I just was upset with that, a little.

2452
01:55:42,040 --> 01:55:46,840
Speaker 3: Bit curious if there was real real Blako there, Bucky,

2453
01:55:46,920 --> 01:55:48,120
Speaker 3: or where was it imitation?

2454
01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure it was imitation.

2455
01:55:50,160 --> 01:55:52,680
Speaker 4: I'm sure you didn't have diamonds all throughout the the hearphone.

2456
01:55:53,200 --> 01:55:53,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

2457
01:55:53,720 --> 01:55:56,800
Speaker 1: The kids. Kids like the kids. The kids like to

2458
01:55:56,800 --> 01:55:58,520
Speaker 1: blinky look like that's part of the thing. You have

2459
01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:02,240
Speaker 1: to also understand, Like Andy, the National Ball they're going

2460
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:03,800
Speaker 1: all the way back to the NFL network. They made

2461
01:56:03,840 --> 01:56:06,920
Speaker 1: a big deal to make the NFL like the NBA.

2462
01:56:07,080 --> 01:56:11,040
Speaker 1: So the NBA was on the front end of doing

2463
01:56:11,080 --> 01:56:13,600
Speaker 1: what we call the walk. I think like when you're

2464
01:56:13,640 --> 01:56:16,160
Speaker 1: in local TV they call it the purf walk.

2465
01:56:16,240 --> 01:56:18,040
Speaker 4: Right when they come and they handcuffed.

2466
01:56:18,200 --> 01:56:21,920
Speaker 1: So the walk coming in, So what it is is

2467
01:56:22,040 --> 01:56:25,120
Speaker 1: coming in from the player's parking lot, through the tunnel

2468
01:56:25,320 --> 01:56:28,320
Speaker 1: going into the locker room. They like to visually catch

2469
01:56:28,360 --> 01:56:32,040
Speaker 1: that shot, right, And so because of that, more players

2470
01:56:32,080 --> 01:56:35,880
Speaker 1: started putting an emphasis in terms of how they dress

2471
01:56:35,920 --> 01:56:39,280
Speaker 1: and what they look like. It's almost become rocked the runway,

2472
01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, And so you're getting all of that because

2473
01:56:42,640 --> 01:56:45,520
Speaker 1: it's show and tell. And as these players begin to

2474
01:56:45,560 --> 01:56:49,200
Speaker 1: take I don't know, a bigger part of the culture

2475
01:56:49,280 --> 01:56:51,080
Speaker 1: and bringing into the locker room, they want to be

2476
01:56:51,120 --> 01:56:53,160
Speaker 1: a part of that. We have guys that see themselves

2477
01:56:53,200 --> 01:56:56,960
Speaker 1: as fashionistas, their trendsetters and that stuff. So you can

2478
01:56:57,120 --> 01:56:59,200
Speaker 1: get all that andy. That's just kind of a part

2479
01:56:59,200 --> 01:57:01,200
Speaker 1: of the deal. You see them where I mean even

2480
01:57:01,200 --> 01:57:04,360
Speaker 1: the Progressive commercial where you saw Stefan Diggs and Von

2481
01:57:04,440 --> 01:57:06,960
Speaker 1: Miller wearing the same outfit. It's just kind of a

2482
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:09,920
Speaker 1: part of the new culture of the NFL. There is

2483
01:57:09,960 --> 01:57:10,520
Speaker 1: how you look.

2484
01:57:10,760 --> 01:57:13,160
Speaker 2: Until the end, you would admit that on the walk

2485
01:57:13,560 --> 01:57:15,520
Speaker 2: most of the time, ninety percent of the time they're

2486
01:57:15,520 --> 01:57:18,840
Speaker 2: going to show a running back, a receiver, or a quarterback.

2487
01:57:19,040 --> 01:57:23,120
Speaker 2: You're not gonna see Aiden Hutchinson wearing diamonds stuttered headphones.

2488
01:57:23,880 --> 01:57:26,920
Speaker 3: If he was wearing him, they would made Hutchett mean,

2489
01:57:26,920 --> 01:57:28,600
Speaker 3: he's a star, right and now.

2490
01:57:28,840 --> 01:57:32,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're showing the stars. Yeah, they showed Miles Garrett

2491
01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:34,839
Speaker 1: and all this stuff in this Halloween outfits. It depends

2492
01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:37,839
Speaker 1: on who the stars are in your local market. Joe Shisty,

2493
01:57:37,960 --> 01:57:40,520
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, he is going to be shown all the

2494
01:57:40,560 --> 01:57:43,560
Speaker 1: time because he is the star, the unequivocal star in

2495
01:57:43,680 --> 01:57:44,640
Speaker 1: that in that market.

2496
01:57:44,720 --> 01:57:47,000
Speaker 3: And let's face it, they all have stolen from forty

2497
01:57:47,080 --> 01:57:50,480
Speaker 3: years ago when you heard the beginning of poping circumstance

2498
01:57:50,680 --> 01:57:52,560
Speaker 3: and you jump to your feet because you knew the

2499
01:57:52,600 --> 01:57:57,120
Speaker 3: macho man was in town. Oh yeah, freak out.

2500
01:57:57,520 --> 01:57:57,760

2506
01:58:12,800 --> 01:58:17,520
Speaker 3: Fellas the Monday Nighter, the Buffalo Bills the other Josh Allen.

2507
01:58:17,560 --> 01:58:19,640
Speaker 3: Now I feel like I'm doing commercials. Remember the the

2508
01:58:19,680 --> 01:58:21,640
Speaker 3: other White Meat when we were.

2509
01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:23,960
Speaker 1: Years ago?

2510
01:58:24,240 --> 01:58:29,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Port Council, maybe straight out of Iowa, and

2511
01:58:29,760 --> 01:58:33,800
Speaker 3: we look at the Bills and a team that's an enigma, right.

2512
01:58:33,840 --> 01:58:37,480
Speaker 3: You got Khalil Shakir stepping up alongside Digs. Digs at

2513
01:58:37,480 --> 01:58:41,080
Speaker 3: time still looks dissatisfied. The run game. We talked about

2514
01:58:41,120 --> 01:58:43,400
Speaker 3: it last week. You know, James Cook coming into the

2515
01:58:43,400 --> 01:58:46,080
Speaker 3: game was still a top ten rusher in the NFL,

2516
01:58:46,120 --> 01:58:49,200
Speaker 3: which shows you where running the football has been because

2517
01:58:49,240 --> 01:58:51,280
Speaker 3: a lot of folks raising their hand going where is he?

2518
01:58:51,440 --> 01:58:53,320
Speaker 3: Why is it he? And all that other stuff, and

2519
01:58:53,400 --> 01:58:56,440
Speaker 3: Josh Allen playing hero ball. On the other side, it

2520
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:59,320
Speaker 3: seems like Sean Payton and Russell Wilson have at least

2521
01:58:59,320 --> 01:59:02,400
Speaker 3: figured out a way to coexist in Denver BUNKI.

2522
01:59:03,800 --> 01:59:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have found a way to do it in

2523
01:59:05,640 --> 01:59:08,440
Speaker 1: winning does all that stuff when it comes to being

2524
01:59:08,480 --> 01:59:11,960
Speaker 1: able to get a dub. Yeah, So now the feelings

2525
01:59:12,000 --> 01:59:15,000
Speaker 1: are flowing. Well, they had a couple wins under their belt.

2526
01:59:15,000 --> 01:59:20,320
Speaker 1: They're beginning to find maybe a level of mutual respect

2527
01:59:20,640 --> 01:59:23,120
Speaker 1: when it comes to each other's game and expertise in

2528
01:59:23,200 --> 01:59:25,760
Speaker 1: those things. And we'll see how it goes. Because you know,

2529
01:59:25,800 --> 01:59:29,960
Speaker 1: it's conditional. The love between Sean Payton and Russell Wilson

2530
01:59:30,040 --> 01:59:32,920
Speaker 1: is great right now because they're winning. If he goes sideways,

2531
01:59:33,360 --> 01:59:35,560
Speaker 1: it won't be as great because the bottom line is

2532
01:59:35,600 --> 01:59:36,520
Speaker 1: Sean Payton wants to win.

2533
01:59:36,560 --> 01:59:37,640
Speaker 4: He wants to win at a high level.

2534
01:59:37,800 --> 01:59:41,240
Speaker 1: He is closely scrutinizing Russell Wilson to see if he's

2535
01:59:41,280 --> 01:59:44,040
Speaker 1: a pro or a con. Is he going to help us?

2536
01:59:44,160 --> 01:59:46,280
Speaker 1: Is he going to hurt us? And so it remains

2537
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:47,520
Speaker 1: a work in progress.

2538
01:59:48,800 --> 01:59:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And the only way Devers going to win this

2539
01:59:50,560 --> 01:59:52,560
Speaker 2: game is they gotta win one game. They gotta win

2540
01:59:52,600 --> 01:59:54,760
Speaker 2: the time of possession game. That's what they gotta do.

2541
01:59:54,960 --> 01:59:56,720
Speaker 2: Keep the Thills off the field. I know what sounds

2542
01:59:56,720 --> 01:59:58,600
Speaker 2: easier said than done. How are you going to try

2543
01:59:58,640 --> 02:00:01,120
Speaker 2: to do? That? Gives the vaulted Ifante Williams put it

2544
02:00:01,160 --> 02:00:03,120
Speaker 2: in his gut and hopefully they could just move the

2545
02:00:03,200 --> 02:00:05,920
Speaker 2: change and just keep that clock running. Gotta keep Josh

2546
02:00:05,920 --> 02:00:07,840
Speaker 2: Allen and those guys off the field. But as long

2547
02:00:07,840 --> 02:00:10,760
Speaker 2: as Buffalo plays a balanced offense, a little more of

2548
02:00:10,760 --> 02:00:12,720
Speaker 2: a run game, They're gonna be hard to beat.

2549
02:00:13,320 --> 02:00:17,040
Speaker 3: Boy, this hour goes so fast. We covered and turned

2550
02:00:17,080 --> 02:00:19,640
Speaker 3: over so many stones and now I'm gonna start playing

2551
02:00:19,800 --> 02:00:23,080
Speaker 3: WWE videos in the background while we're here, because the

2552
02:00:23,080 --> 02:00:25,480
Speaker 3: great entrances, you know, I mean, that's what it's all about.

2553
02:00:25,680 --> 02:00:28,400
Speaker 3: You always need to make a big entrance and big exits.

2554
02:00:28,440 --> 02:00:31,040
Speaker 3: As we close out this hour, Andy, thanks so much,

2555
02:00:31,720 --> 02:00:33,880
Speaker 3: Thank you, appreciate you. Bucky and I are going to

2556
02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:37,480
Speaker 3: continue here for another hour Fox Football Sunday. Here, Fox

2557
02:00:37,520 --> 02:00:40,440
Speaker 3: Sports Radio, Week ten of your NFL. Really glad they

2558
02:00:40,440 --> 02:00:43,480
Speaker 3: didn't accidentally turn my microphone on. Having those moments where

2559
02:00:43,480 --> 02:00:47,040
Speaker 3: you're trying to stretch the vocal cords. Get yourself right

2560
02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:51,760
Speaker 3: for another hour of scintillating radio while belting out Somebody

2561
02:00:51,920 --> 02:00:55,040
Speaker 3: to Love in the studio, Bucky Brooks with me here

2562
02:00:55,160 --> 02:00:58,640
Speaker 3: Mike Harmon another hour Fox Football Sunday, jacked up because

2563
02:00:58,640 --> 02:01:02,120
Speaker 3: we're a half hour away from live football, the final

2564
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:06,800
Speaker 3: of the International Series. Bucky, you're a practice veteran of

2565
02:01:06,840 --> 02:01:11,640
Speaker 3: the International Series. What's been the highlights through the years

2566
02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:14,680
Speaker 3: of broadcasting those games? Did you find a place that

2567
02:01:14,720 --> 02:01:18,960
Speaker 3: became a go to standard for food or beverage or

2568
02:01:19,160 --> 02:01:20,320
Speaker 3: nocturnal activities?

2569
02:01:21,800 --> 02:01:24,120
Speaker 1: I wish I could say that I did find something

2570
02:01:24,200 --> 02:01:26,360
Speaker 1: like that, but no, I think the best part of

2571
02:01:26,400 --> 02:01:27,360
Speaker 1: it is just seeing the.

2572
02:01:29,120 --> 02:01:31,040
Speaker 4: It's such a unique environment Harmon.

2573
02:01:31,160 --> 02:01:33,640
Speaker 1: So when you go to Soldier Field, right, if you

2574
02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:35,960
Speaker 1: can watch a Bears Packers game, normally the people can

2575
02:01:36,000 --> 02:01:38,040
Speaker 1: be decked out of either Bears gear or Packers gear.

2576
02:01:38,560 --> 02:01:43,800
Speaker 1: The International games, it's all comers, right, So the Jags

2577
02:01:43,800 --> 02:01:45,920
Speaker 1: are taking on the Buffalo Bills, but you see people

2578
02:01:45,960 --> 02:01:49,760
Speaker 1: with Giants jerseys, Dolphins jerseys, Rams jerseys in the stands.

2579
02:01:50,120 --> 02:01:52,240
Speaker 1: It is one of the oddest things. I think the

2580
02:01:52,280 --> 02:01:55,280
Speaker 1: best way to compare it is to a Pro Bowl

2581
02:01:55,720 --> 02:01:59,520
Speaker 1: or a Super Bowl environment. Meaning some of the people

2582
02:01:59,520 --> 02:02:01,760
Speaker 1: that grabbed take us to the super Bowl, they grab

2583
02:02:01,800 --> 02:02:04,280
Speaker 1: them because they don't before they know whose team is

2584
02:02:04,280 --> 02:02:06,480
Speaker 1: going to be in it, and so now they're there,

2585
02:02:06,880 --> 02:02:09,880
Speaker 1: and so they're there and they show up and their

2586
02:02:09,880 --> 02:02:13,200
Speaker 1: team's jersey, which is so random. I don't know why

2587
02:02:13,200 --> 02:02:16,320
Speaker 1: anyone would do that. It's almost like when when people

2588
02:02:16,360 --> 02:02:18,480
Speaker 1: go to like Chicago Bulls games, but they would show

2589
02:02:18,560 --> 02:02:20,600
Speaker 1: up in a PACER's jersey, Like it doesn't make sense, Like,

2590
02:02:20,760 --> 02:02:22,480
Speaker 1: I know, you're going to a basketball game, you want

2591
02:02:22,480 --> 02:02:25,840
Speaker 1: to be an ACJC, Yeah, you just don't take whatever

2592
02:02:25,920 --> 02:02:28,000
Speaker 1: jersey you have in the drawer and put it on.

2593
02:02:28,080 --> 02:02:29,280
Speaker 4: But it's very similar to that.

2594
02:02:29,320 --> 02:02:32,680
Speaker 1: It's just just a different take on how to get

2595
02:02:32,720 --> 02:02:33,640
Speaker 1: it done. That's what I would say.

2596
02:02:33,640 --> 02:02:35,800
Speaker 3: There you go. I think every week going forward, we'll

2597
02:02:35,800 --> 02:02:40,400
Speaker 3: have BUCkies etiquette for sporting abouts and your intend No,

2598
02:02:40,480 --> 02:02:41,840
Speaker 3: I look, I appreciate this.

2599
02:02:42,240 --> 02:02:45,480
Speaker 1: We're something that's more appropriate. Appropriate.

2600
02:02:46,080 --> 02:02:49,360
Speaker 3: We want to go. We're going to be super like

2601
02:02:49,400 --> 02:02:51,880
Speaker 3: we're back in the use of the black socks of

2602
02:02:52,000 --> 02:02:52,920
Speaker 3: nineteen nineteen.

2603
02:02:53,840 --> 02:02:53,920
Speaker 2: No.

2604
02:02:54,240 --> 02:02:55,520
Speaker 4: I mean, but people may not notice.

2605
02:02:55,560 --> 02:02:57,240
Speaker 1: But you know at the at the pro Shop, at

2606
02:02:57,240 --> 02:03:00,440
Speaker 1: the team store, they have stuff that is just nerik

2607
02:03:00,640 --> 02:03:03,160
Speaker 1: NFL gear that you can wear. You can wear super

2608
02:03:03,200 --> 02:03:05,960
Speaker 1: Bowl or International Series or something like that. You don't

2609
02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:07,880
Speaker 1: have to show up in your favorite team.

2610
02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:10,040
Speaker 3: Wait wait, wait, wait, you want everybody running around with

2611
02:03:10,080 --> 02:03:14,240
Speaker 3: that NFL hat like Rob Low, like you're a referee.

2612
02:03:14,280 --> 02:03:18,160
Speaker 3: I actually have a referees hat, if you can believe that.

2613
02:03:18,640 --> 02:03:21,160
Speaker 3: At some point Smith gifted it to me, and every

2614
02:03:21,200 --> 02:03:23,400
Speaker 3: once in a while I wear it just to vex people.

2615
02:03:25,560 --> 02:03:27,480
Speaker 1: I wonder if you have one of the referees hats

2616
02:03:27,480 --> 02:03:30,240
Speaker 1: with the camera on it. I wish I had to

2617
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:34,280
Speaker 1: the referee cam as they trying to make it a

2618
02:03:34,320 --> 02:03:34,800
Speaker 1: big deal.

2619
02:03:35,360 --> 02:03:37,720
Speaker 3: Well let's start there with referees. We can do more

2620
02:03:37,760 --> 02:03:40,600
Speaker 3: on the celebration of the game, because seeing more of

2621
02:03:40,640 --> 02:03:44,040
Speaker 3: that that, you know, even attending the Chargers Bears game

2622
02:03:44,280 --> 02:03:47,200
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago, Bucky, far more people than

2623
02:03:47,240 --> 02:03:51,320
Speaker 3: I remember wearing just jerseys of any team, and we

2624
02:03:51,440 --> 02:03:54,160
Speaker 3: are seeing I think, and I think the data would

2625
02:03:54,160 --> 02:03:58,400
Speaker 3: bear this out a lot more folks finding vacation destinations

2626
02:03:58,440 --> 02:04:01,360
Speaker 3: internationally come into see a game, even if they don't

2627
02:04:01,360 --> 02:04:03,000
Speaker 3: care about the Bears in Charges, like, all right, I

2628
02:04:03,000 --> 02:04:05,480
Speaker 3: went to Los Angeles, there's a game in town, right,

2629
02:04:05,520 --> 02:04:09,120
Speaker 3: and planning there and then just celebrating whatever team they've adopted,

2630
02:04:09,520 --> 02:04:11,600
Speaker 3: or maybe they're an expat that comes in for a

2631
02:04:11,640 --> 02:04:12,880
Speaker 3: game or whatever the case is.

2632
02:04:13,880 --> 02:04:14,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, just taking one in.

2633
02:04:15,160 --> 02:04:15,440
Speaker 1: Let's go.

2634
02:04:15,560 --> 02:04:17,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm celebrated as you will.

2635
02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:19,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, celebrated as you wis.

2636
02:04:19,240 --> 02:04:23,160
Speaker 3: Hey man, somebody got these sixty six percent in their

2637
02:04:23,240 --> 02:04:26,200
Speaker 3: pocket for the purchase of that jersey. Because that's one

2638
02:04:26,200 --> 02:04:28,640
Speaker 3: of the things we really learned in this whole Travis

2639
02:04:28,760 --> 02:04:32,040
Speaker 3: Kelcey Taylor Swift thing is I think everybody now knows

2640
02:04:32,120 --> 02:04:34,640
Speaker 3: that the player's taking home about two thirds of that money,

2641
02:04:35,040 --> 02:04:39,240
Speaker 3: So good for him. Lucrative opportunity, no question, But you

2642
02:04:39,280 --> 02:04:41,520
Speaker 3: mentioned referees. I think that's one of the great jumping

2643
02:04:41,560 --> 02:04:44,280
Speaker 3: off points because we had Micah Parsons popping off, and

2644
02:04:44,320 --> 02:04:47,440
Speaker 3: we've seen this quite a bit. Last week, you and

2645
02:04:47,480 --> 02:04:51,200
Speaker 3: I talked extensively about the fine system, so many more

2646
02:04:51,800 --> 02:04:55,400
Speaker 3: running backs getting hit, lowering their heads into the line

2647
02:04:55,400 --> 02:04:59,200
Speaker 3: of scrimmage. Josh Jacobs being vocal because he's what twenty

2648
02:04:59,240 --> 02:05:02,600
Speaker 3: one thousand dollar lighter in the wallet today. But Micah

2649
02:05:02,640 --> 02:05:07,600
Speaker 3: Parson's making the case for more referees because of obvious

2650
02:05:07,720 --> 02:05:11,480
Speaker 3: holding and egregious holding penalties that are missed, and some

2651
02:05:11,640 --> 02:05:15,000
Speaker 3: of it I think goes back to the age old

2652
02:05:15,200 --> 02:05:18,280
Speaker 3: argument that drifts back into what's going on with the

2653
02:05:18,360 --> 02:05:21,240
Speaker 3: University of Michigan if I can bring them in tangentially

2654
02:05:21,600 --> 02:05:23,800
Speaker 3: of the all right, everybody's trying to get an edge

2655
02:05:23,800 --> 02:05:28,720
Speaker 3: with signals and play calling and finding their edge, and

2656
02:05:28,760 --> 02:05:32,800
Speaker 3: that's there's nothing new there. Likewise, when we talk about,

2657
02:05:32,920 --> 02:05:36,000
Speaker 3: you know, the holding penalties, it's always been the Well,

2658
02:05:36,400 --> 02:05:39,480
Speaker 3: technically you could probably call one on every play. It's

2659
02:05:39,560 --> 02:05:42,840
Speaker 3: just a matter of did it affect it materially and

2660
02:05:43,040 --> 02:05:46,760
Speaker 3: something that you know is obvious and needs the flag

2661
02:05:46,800 --> 02:05:49,320
Speaker 3: because how many times we see flags picked up anymore?

2662
02:05:50,560 --> 02:05:53,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean we do see it a lot

2663
02:05:53,080 --> 02:05:55,400
Speaker 1: more than than we've seen it in the past.

2664
02:05:55,760 --> 02:05:57,240
Speaker 4: Here's my thing. When it comes to.

2665
02:05:59,600 --> 02:06:02,720
Speaker 1: The fine system in the structure and Michael Parson's and

2666
02:06:03,360 --> 02:06:06,120
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs and some of those guys, I do believe

2667
02:06:06,120 --> 02:06:08,680
Speaker 1: the fine structure is ridiculous, like the fact that the

2668
02:06:09,040 --> 02:06:12,640
Speaker 1: fines are so big, twenty one thousand dollars for like

2669
02:06:12,760 --> 02:06:13,720
Speaker 1: some of the violations.

2670
02:06:13,760 --> 02:06:15,600
Speaker 4: I mean, that is a lot of.

2671
02:06:16,080 --> 02:06:18,960
Speaker 3: Look at Jalen war lost two game checks basically.

2672
02:06:19,840 --> 02:06:24,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I understand that you want punitive stuff. But man,

2673
02:06:25,760 --> 02:06:28,000
Speaker 1: I know people won't believe this. For people that make me,

2674
02:06:28,200 --> 02:06:30,320
Speaker 1: I still think five thousand dollars is a lot of money,

2675
02:06:30,360 --> 02:06:31,880
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I think thousand a lot

2676
02:06:31,880 --> 02:06:34,160
Speaker 1: of money loose in a check. I mean, I don't

2677
02:06:34,200 --> 02:06:35,880
Speaker 1: care how much money you make, Like, that's still a

2678
02:06:35,920 --> 02:06:39,320
Speaker 1: significant amount of cash. I don't understand why it has

2679
02:06:39,360 --> 02:06:43,560
Speaker 1: to be the number that is escalated to like to me,

2680
02:06:43,760 --> 02:06:45,400
Speaker 1: that is bananas.

2681
02:06:45,720 --> 02:06:47,760
Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean, as we've watched it, and I

2682
02:06:47,800 --> 02:06:50,320
Speaker 3: get it if you're ratcheting it up based on you know,

2683
02:06:50,480 --> 02:06:55,480
Speaker 3: frequency of offenses and safety is always what we were

2684
02:06:55,520 --> 02:07:00,600
Speaker 3: proclaiming it to be. But man, we losing twenty grand

2685
02:07:00,680 --> 02:07:05,720
Speaker 3: here Warren lost I think forty eight thousand twice like

2686
02:07:05,840 --> 02:07:07,960
Speaker 3: in you know, either back to back weeks or there

2687
02:07:07,960 --> 02:07:11,400
Speaker 3: may have been one in between, but it's just been

2688
02:07:12,440 --> 02:07:15,280
Speaker 3: you know, a litany of offenses. And last week there

2689
02:07:15,280 --> 02:07:17,960
Speaker 3: were thirty one guys going back to week eight. I

2690
02:07:18,000 --> 02:07:20,280
Speaker 3: didn't see the final number coming out of week nine,

2691
02:07:20,320 --> 02:07:25,000
Speaker 3: but the Jacob's one got some.

2692
02:07:23,040 --> 02:07:26,320
Speaker 1: So on for sure. Yeah. So here's the thing about

2693
02:07:26,400 --> 02:07:28,840
Speaker 1: that part of it, right, And I understand, like we're

2694
02:07:28,840 --> 02:07:31,920
Speaker 1: in this this to them where we want health and

2695
02:07:32,440 --> 02:07:36,400
Speaker 1: safety and all those things, right, and I completely am

2696
02:07:36,520 --> 02:07:38,680
Speaker 1: for all of that, but there's some things you can't

2697
02:07:38,760 --> 02:07:42,120
Speaker 1: legislate out the game. So when a running back has

2698
02:07:42,160 --> 02:07:45,680
Speaker 1: the ball and you have people that are coming to

2699
02:07:45,760 --> 02:07:49,080
Speaker 1: take your head off harm and the natural thing and

2700
02:07:49,200 --> 02:07:52,960
Speaker 1: most instances is to duck, right. It's almost like if

2701
02:07:53,000 --> 02:07:55,080
Speaker 1: you're just walking through a crowd and you see a

2702
02:07:55,160 --> 02:07:58,760
Speaker 1: random haymaker coming, Oh, let me duck my head down

2703
02:07:58,800 --> 02:08:01,320
Speaker 1: to see if I can miss the blow. It can

2704
02:08:01,360 --> 02:08:03,880
Speaker 1: be a glancing blow. But that's what some of these

2705
02:08:03,920 --> 02:08:07,640
Speaker 1: things are. It's not like Josh Jakes is trying to say, hey,

2706
02:08:07,720 --> 02:08:09,240
Speaker 1: you know what I want to do I want to

2707
02:08:09,280 --> 02:08:11,320
Speaker 1: take my head and I want to put it right

2708
02:08:11,360 --> 02:08:13,720
Speaker 1: through the chest of the definitive. I want to expose

2709
02:08:13,800 --> 02:08:16,520
Speaker 1: my neck and everything to that. Some of that is

2710
02:08:16,560 --> 02:08:20,280
Speaker 1: a natural human reaction to I'm about to get hit,

2711
02:08:20,400 --> 02:08:23,000
Speaker 1: and my natural reaction is to duck down and tighten

2712
02:08:23,080 --> 02:08:26,360
Speaker 1: up and make myself kind of turtle up as I'm

2713
02:08:26,360 --> 02:08:27,840
Speaker 1: getting ready to absorb this content.

2714
02:08:28,200 --> 02:08:30,879
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, I love it. I'll always celebrate

2715
02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:33,200
Speaker 3: the career of Walter Payton, but I mean they used

2716
02:08:33,200 --> 02:08:36,480
Speaker 3: to do literal side by sides of the way his

2717
02:08:36,640 --> 02:08:40,280
Speaker 3: running style was engaging in contact against you know, here's

2718
02:08:40,320 --> 02:08:44,360
Speaker 3: a couple of deer fighting in a meadow right of Hey,

2719
02:08:44,400 --> 02:08:46,600
Speaker 3: I'm going to lower my head and I'm getting after it.

2720
02:08:46,720 --> 02:08:50,720
Speaker 3: I mean, he delivered and it was pretty straightforward. This

2721
02:08:50,760 --> 02:08:53,000
Speaker 3: is what I'm going to do. You're going to absorb

2722
02:08:53,080 --> 02:08:55,560
Speaker 3: the punishment for me. And I've got a helmet too,

2723
02:08:55,880 --> 02:08:58,560
Speaker 3: so I'm gonna use it. But certainly now, you know,

2724
02:08:58,600 --> 02:09:01,000
Speaker 3: you're just trying to get low like it Like I'm

2725
02:09:01,040 --> 02:09:03,080
Speaker 3: just trying, like you said, to turtle up a bit.

2726
02:09:03,320 --> 02:09:05,160
Speaker 3: And if the guy comes down to my level and

2727
02:09:05,200 --> 02:09:07,920
Speaker 3: now it's a you know, by my head, it catches you.

2728
02:09:08,440 --> 02:09:10,400
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying this is the same case with

2729
02:09:10,480 --> 02:09:13,600
Speaker 3: all of these guys, but you know, it gets difficult. Michaeh.

2730
02:09:13,600 --> 02:09:16,560
Speaker 3: Parsons point is a whole other thing, talking about, Hey,

2731
02:09:16,600 --> 02:09:18,960
Speaker 3: I'm being held and you know so my numbers are

2732
02:09:19,000 --> 02:09:21,600
Speaker 3: down and I'll be not getting free reign. I don't

2733
02:09:21,640 --> 02:09:23,760
Speaker 3: know that more officials is gonna do it. If anything,

2734
02:09:23,880 --> 02:09:26,480
Speaker 3: it's going to create more confusion. How many conferences do

2735
02:09:26,520 --> 02:09:29,280
Speaker 3: we see in an average game, and it gets spotlighted

2736
02:09:29,280 --> 02:09:32,880
Speaker 3: at these national you know, prime time games, these single

2737
02:09:33,000 --> 02:09:37,080
Speaker 3: game windows where they're standing around having a three minute conference.

2738
02:09:37,240 --> 02:09:39,840
Speaker 3: They're like, ah, there's no flag on the play, Like,

2739
02:09:39,960 --> 02:09:42,839
Speaker 3: oh you saw something. How did that guy from across

2740
02:09:42,880 --> 02:09:45,800
Speaker 3: the field or a guy forty yards away convince you

2741
02:09:45,880 --> 02:09:48,400
Speaker 3: to pick it up? Like? What are we doing? I

2742
02:09:48,400 --> 02:09:51,400
Speaker 3: don't think Michael Parsons gets the results he wants if

2743
02:09:51,440 --> 02:09:52,840
Speaker 3: there's more guys on the field.

2744
02:09:53,480 --> 02:09:55,040
Speaker 1: I had to break it to Mike and Mike, I mean,

2745
02:09:55,080 --> 02:09:56,960
Speaker 1: I know this, but it's a passing league, it's an

2746
02:09:57,000 --> 02:09:59,360
Speaker 1: offensive league. You know what the league is not going

2747
02:09:59,400 --> 02:10:01,640
Speaker 1: to do. They're not going to make it where the

2748
02:10:01,680 --> 02:10:05,240
Speaker 1: defense has bigger advantages. You're already hearing the conversation about

2749
02:10:05,280 --> 02:10:10,920
Speaker 1: points being down, Micah, they are definitely not going to say, hey,

2750
02:10:10,960 --> 02:10:11,720
Speaker 1: you know what we want.

2751
02:10:11,960 --> 02:10:13,120
Speaker 4: We want you to.

2752
02:10:13,120 --> 02:10:15,800
Speaker 1: Have free reign and a free run to the quarterback

2753
02:10:15,880 --> 02:10:17,640
Speaker 1: to make sure that the quarterback is pulling and we

2754
02:10:17,680 --> 02:10:21,800
Speaker 1: don't get the scoring. Yeah, we will see fewer holding

2755
02:10:21,840 --> 02:10:26,680
Speaker 1: penalties going forward, more so than less than more.

2756
02:10:26,800 --> 02:10:28,880
Speaker 3: No, I think you're one hundred percent day out. Yeah,

2757
02:10:28,920 --> 02:10:30,880
Speaker 3: I mean with the number of times and we talked

2758
02:10:30,880 --> 02:10:33,840
Speaker 3: about it our last hour with Andy, you know, talking

2759
02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:35,840
Speaker 3: about the number of games where you look at the

2760
02:10:35,840 --> 02:10:39,080
Speaker 3: over under totals that we're at forty or less, and

2761
02:10:39,160 --> 02:10:41,160
Speaker 3: a lot of them were starting to pressure down into

2762
02:10:41,160 --> 02:10:44,480
Speaker 3: Iowa territory. By the way, that game's still finished under

2763
02:10:45,160 --> 02:10:47,600
Speaker 3: you can believe it. Twenty seven and a half. They

2764
02:10:47,600 --> 02:10:51,320
Speaker 3: get a shutout win over Rutgers twenty two. Nothing. Boy,

2765
02:10:51,400 --> 02:10:55,760
Speaker 3: that's like watching paint dry. That game against Northwestern, now,

2766
02:10:56,080 --> 02:10:58,720
Speaker 3: I'm even angrier that Northwestern didn't pull that one out

2767
02:10:58,840 --> 02:11:01,240
Speaker 3: because after you yesterday's win, they would have been they

2768
02:11:01,240 --> 02:11:03,960
Speaker 3: would be Bowl eligible. It's still two more games to

2769
02:11:04,000 --> 02:11:06,920
Speaker 3: get there. What a crazy season that has been, no question.

2770
02:11:06,800 --> 02:11:09,560
Speaker 1: About Oh well, let's talk about that quite an accomplishation

2771
02:11:09,640 --> 02:11:13,720
Speaker 1: for the for the wildcast, considering all the other stuff, like, yeah,

2772
02:11:13,720 --> 02:11:16,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's yeah, who would have thought that they

2773
02:11:16,920 --> 02:11:18,800
Speaker 1: would return around because thought they were in a full

2774
02:11:18,880 --> 02:11:22,000
Speaker 1: long tail spin after losing Pat Fitzgerald. And you know

2775
02:11:22,040 --> 02:11:25,760
Speaker 1: what's so crazy about this season? That season that that

2776
02:11:26,080 --> 02:11:27,920
Speaker 1: controversy seems like.

2777
02:11:28,120 --> 02:11:30,640
Speaker 3: Years white years ago. Well with all the other stuff

2778
02:11:30,680 --> 02:11:32,720
Speaker 3: in the big ten, right, I mean.

2779
02:11:32,720 --> 02:11:39,200
Speaker 1: Just that, yeah, that mill Tucker stuff. Yeah, you now

2780
02:11:39,240 --> 02:11:42,720
Speaker 1: have Michigan and maybe there'll be one other thing before

2781
02:11:42,720 --> 02:11:43,760
Speaker 1: they close out the year.

2782
02:11:44,160 --> 02:11:47,840
Speaker 3: But unbelieva man that Oh my god. Yeah, the conferences,

2783
02:11:48,000 --> 02:11:51,240
Speaker 3: uh certainly had one after another. But yeah, the Fitzgerald thing,

2784
02:11:51,680 --> 02:11:54,520
Speaker 3: he's filed the lawsuit. We'll see where that goes. You know,

2785
02:11:54,600 --> 02:11:57,600
Speaker 3: I I still stand by what I said day one.

2786
02:11:57,840 --> 02:12:00,360
Speaker 3: How all the assistants were able to survive when he

2787
02:12:00,440 --> 02:12:04,720
Speaker 3: got bounced still made no sense to me. And the

2788
02:12:05,080 --> 02:12:09,480
Speaker 3: level of statements and everything the school made again, we're

2789
02:12:09,520 --> 02:12:13,840
Speaker 3: still nonsensical and gutless to my thinking. If you did

2790
02:12:13,880 --> 02:12:17,320
Speaker 3: an investigation and you came up with an agreement just

2791
02:12:17,360 --> 02:12:21,080
Speaker 3: because a couple of people leaked what you already knew,

2792
02:12:21,720 --> 02:12:24,520
Speaker 3: and the court of public opinion got after you, I

2793
02:12:24,520 --> 02:12:26,920
Speaker 3: mean you changed your mind.

2794
02:12:27,840 --> 02:12:29,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, your word is your bond.

2795
02:12:29,520 --> 02:12:31,520
Speaker 1: So if you say, hey, this is what we're doing,

2796
02:12:31,560 --> 02:12:34,480
Speaker 1: this is the punishment, then then that's what it should be.

2797
02:12:34,640 --> 02:12:36,680
Speaker 1: You can't then he let me put it out there

2798
02:12:36,680 --> 02:12:39,560
Speaker 1: for public consumption, like, ah, they didn't hit right, we're changing.

2799
02:12:40,840 --> 02:12:41,880
Speaker 1: There's a lot of that though.

2800
02:12:42,160 --> 02:12:45,040
Speaker 3: But look a look at this Michigan thing though, Bucky right,

2801
02:12:45,120 --> 02:12:50,440
Speaker 3: I mean Veterans Day, so you know, everything's closed so

2802
02:12:50,600 --> 02:12:53,000
Speaker 3: in terms of you know, your courts and whatever else.

2803
02:12:53,040 --> 02:12:55,560
Speaker 3: And I know it passed through some folks that are

2804
02:12:55,600 --> 02:12:59,040
Speaker 3: Michigan alums. So folks were losing their minds when we're

2805
02:12:59,040 --> 02:13:02,400
Speaker 3: talking about judges that would have to hear this stuff.

2806
02:13:02,840 --> 02:13:06,360
Speaker 3: But you come down with this end of season three

2807
02:13:06,440 --> 02:13:10,920
Speaker 3: game suspension while they're on a plane to go play

2808
02:13:10,960 --> 02:13:15,120
Speaker 3: another top ten team in conference. And again for the

2809
02:13:15,200 --> 02:13:18,560
Speaker 3: Big Ten commissioner new on the job, seemed like it

2810
02:13:18,640 --> 02:13:21,080
Speaker 3: was the reaction to just public opinion of you have

2811
02:13:21,160 --> 02:13:24,280
Speaker 3: to do something versus hey, let's make sure we get

2812
02:13:24,280 --> 02:13:24,760
Speaker 3: this right.

2813
02:13:26,200 --> 02:13:30,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I mean I do feel like there's that,

2814
02:13:30,920 --> 02:13:34,000
Speaker 1: and you know, unfortunately we play a part of it

2815
02:13:34,040 --> 02:13:36,080
Speaker 1: in the media like it's to rush the judgment like, oh,

2816
02:13:36,080 --> 02:13:38,240
Speaker 1: they got to throw the book at him, this and that,

2817
02:13:38,440 --> 02:13:41,520
Speaker 1: and I don't know, man, like if you do it,

2818
02:13:41,520 --> 02:13:42,800
Speaker 1: it comes up in the middle of the thing. I

2819
02:13:42,800 --> 02:13:45,960
Speaker 1: don't know how it's gonna impact this year's team. But

2820
02:13:46,280 --> 02:13:49,680
Speaker 1: to me, they should have like played it out, make

2821
02:13:49,720 --> 02:13:53,000
Speaker 1: all the announcements in those things and with Harbor, like

2822
02:13:53,040 --> 02:13:55,160
Speaker 1: he just kind of has to hang. I won't say

2823
02:13:55,200 --> 02:13:57,920
Speaker 1: in purgatory, but it just has to be a cloud over.

2824
02:13:58,000 --> 02:13:59,680
Speaker 1: But man, if you're going to do the grand standing

2825
02:13:59,720 --> 02:14:01,440
Speaker 1: where you pull them off the plane and a man

2826
02:14:01,560 --> 02:14:04,480
Speaker 1: you land, you can't. You're suspended in that. To me,

2827
02:14:04,560 --> 02:14:08,600
Speaker 1: it was just a lot and going into it, I

2828
02:14:08,640 --> 02:14:10,680
Speaker 1: was excited to see their team playing. You talked about

2829
02:14:10,680 --> 02:14:12,760
Speaker 1: a team that is super talent. I'll say this like

2830
02:14:12,800 --> 02:14:14,880
Speaker 1: design stealing, like if they went through all the measures

2831
02:14:14,960 --> 02:14:16,520
Speaker 1: or whatever, like, yeah, that's over the top and there

2832
02:14:16,560 --> 02:14:18,800
Speaker 1: should be a level of punishment. But make no mistake

2833
02:14:18,800 --> 02:14:20,720
Speaker 1: about it. The reason why all those teams in the

2834
02:14:20,720 --> 02:14:23,200
Speaker 1: big team were getting what by Michigan had little to

2835
02:14:23,240 --> 02:14:25,440
Speaker 1: do with the signs stealing had more to do with

2836
02:14:25,480 --> 02:14:27,600
Speaker 1: the team that has really come of age on the Harbor,

2837
02:14:28,080 --> 02:14:31,880
Speaker 1: a different team. And I will say this, I don't

2838
02:14:31,920 --> 02:14:34,440
Speaker 1: go to many college games anymore, but boy, if I

2839
02:14:34,480 --> 02:14:37,720
Speaker 1: could get a ticket to that Michigan Ohio State and sure.

2840
02:14:39,240 --> 02:14:41,800
Speaker 1: The last time I went Harmon was the time they

2841
02:14:41,840 --> 02:14:42,480
Speaker 1: had to fight.

2842
02:14:43,160 --> 02:14:44,400
Speaker 4: It was in the Big House and.

2843
02:14:44,360 --> 02:14:47,200
Speaker 1: They had to fight, and the tumnel they had to

2844
02:14:47,240 --> 02:14:50,280
Speaker 1: fight in pregame in the pre games. I can't remember

2845
02:14:50,280 --> 02:14:54,160
Speaker 1: the Yeah, the big offensive tackle for Michigan's for Ohio

2846
02:14:54,160 --> 02:14:57,000
Speaker 1: State got got thrown out. But man, it was a

2847
02:14:57,040 --> 02:15:00,600
Speaker 1: doozy And look, I come from North Caroline of Dukee.

2848
02:15:00,600 --> 02:15:03,400
Speaker 1: It's a rivalry, but it's like a friendly rivalry. Michigan

2849
02:15:03,440 --> 02:15:05,400
Speaker 1: Ohio State. They really don't like each other. The people

2850
02:15:05,480 --> 02:15:07,960
Speaker 1: really don't like each other like they really like. It

2851
02:15:08,080 --> 02:15:11,880
Speaker 1: is really personal beyond belief. I was astonished at how

2852
02:15:11,880 --> 02:15:12,920
Speaker 1: it was, but I did love it.

2853
02:15:13,480 --> 02:15:18,240
Speaker 3: Ann Arbor, Michigan with all those seats right we are

2854
02:15:18,320 --> 02:15:21,200
Speaker 3: talking about the big House. Get in right now. From

2855
02:15:21,240 --> 02:15:25,160
Speaker 3: a quick glance, five hundred twenty three dollars plus fees.

2856
02:15:26,080 --> 02:15:28,320
Speaker 1: Oh man, I'm probably by the flagpole.

2857
02:15:28,600 --> 02:15:29,240
Speaker 4: I'm probably up.

2858
02:15:29,840 --> 02:15:34,560
Speaker 3: It's five section five twenty three. That's the best ticket,

2859
02:15:34,640 --> 02:15:38,839
Speaker 3: so section thirty eight, Row ninety two, and it's labeled

2860
02:15:38,840 --> 02:15:44,720
Speaker 3: as a great deal. That is your get in for

2861
02:15:45,280 --> 02:15:47,240
Speaker 3: man ticket to that game.

2862
02:15:47,360 --> 02:15:50,160
Speaker 1: And my look, my heart is already pound and just

2863
02:15:50,160 --> 02:15:53,080
Speaker 1: thinking about when you said like section five something, I

2864
02:15:53,120 --> 02:15:55,880
Speaker 1: was like that, that means that means five levels up.

2865
02:15:56,040 --> 02:15:58,040
Speaker 3: That means you get a lot of the marketing.

2866
02:15:58,200 --> 02:16:00,120
Speaker 1: Oh man, Philly Pump.

2867
02:16:00,160 --> 02:16:03,240
Speaker 3: Hey man, you did not skip leg day out of

2868
02:16:03,280 --> 02:16:07,800
Speaker 3: college football day. Let me tell you what it's like,

2869
02:16:07,880 --> 02:16:10,720
Speaker 3: going and sitting the way they used to have what

2870
02:16:10,880 --> 02:16:15,120
Speaker 3: is now guaranteed rate field configured before they retrofitted it

2871
02:16:15,160 --> 02:16:18,800
Speaker 3: and stuff going up into the upper deck. Tell you what, man,

2872
02:16:19,160 --> 02:16:22,200
Speaker 3: you were at a steep angle. I watched many many

2873
02:16:22,240 --> 02:16:25,280
Speaker 3: a man or a woman not really great with their

2874
02:16:25,320 --> 02:16:28,160
Speaker 3: balance to where like if this guy falls, we're all

2875
02:16:28,200 --> 02:16:31,960
Speaker 3: done and you're going over the rail. That's where we're at.

2876
02:16:32,480 --> 02:16:34,280
Speaker 3: I'd love to see the constructor. I can't wait to

2877
02:16:34,280 --> 02:16:36,800
Speaker 3: see the video because I'm sure they will go find

2878
02:16:36,800 --> 02:16:39,320
Speaker 3: someone in one of those last rows on game day

2879
02:16:40,040 --> 02:16:43,920
Speaker 3: there to show you the vantage point. But yeah, I'm

2880
02:16:44,000 --> 02:16:47,600
Speaker 3: with you in terms of games, I would pay a

2881
02:16:47,640 --> 02:16:51,360
Speaker 3: substantial amount of money to see if I were in town.

2882
02:16:51,520 --> 02:16:53,880
Speaker 3: Because we start adding flights and stuff, Bucky, that gets

2883
02:16:53,959 --> 02:16:55,480
Speaker 3: really prohibitively expensive.

2884
02:16:56,240 --> 02:16:59,680
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I mean it's super pricey, but that one

2885
02:17:00,040 --> 02:17:01,480
Speaker 1: I may come out of the pocket to see that,

2886
02:17:01,560 --> 02:17:06,039
Speaker 1: because just your reaction, whether or not Harbaugh is in

2887
02:17:06,080 --> 02:17:10,240
Speaker 1: the building, just what Ryan Day is going to catch,

2888
02:17:10,360 --> 02:17:14,080
Speaker 1: particularly if and I don't know if he thought about this,

2889
02:17:14,280 --> 02:17:18,400
Speaker 1: you talk about he's already maybe on a semi warm season, it's.

2890
02:17:18,320 --> 02:17:21,240
Speaker 3: At least little warm because of the refugation of being

2891
02:17:21,360 --> 02:17:23,560
Speaker 3: saw Yeah.

2892
02:17:23,720 --> 02:17:26,960
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if they lose to a harbor leous

2893
02:17:27,800 --> 02:17:29,720
Speaker 1: Michigan team.

2894
02:17:31,080 --> 02:17:34,720
Speaker 3: Oh no, chaos, Chaos ensues, There's no question about it.

2895
02:17:34,800 --> 02:17:38,360
Speaker 1: Like theater, he might get met in the tunnel. Like

2896
02:17:38,400 --> 02:17:40,760
Speaker 1: everyone talks about Lane Kiff and getting fired on the tarmac,

2897
02:17:41,360 --> 02:17:44,400
Speaker 1: that might be a tunnel. A tunnel dismissal.

2898
02:17:44,480 --> 02:17:46,600
Speaker 4: Hey man, you know what it's.

2899
02:17:46,480 --> 02:17:49,000
Speaker 1: Almost like when you know, when they take the picture

2900
02:17:49,040 --> 02:17:52,360
Speaker 1: out and the manager comes to the mound, takes the ball,

2901
02:17:52,400 --> 02:17:54,720
Speaker 1: pass him on the back. I can just see you

2902
02:17:55,160 --> 02:17:57,720
Speaker 1: lose the ad coming down, patting him on the bat,

2903
02:17:57,760 --> 02:18:00,400
Speaker 1: taking the play card. Hey man, it was a nice run,

2904
02:18:00,640 --> 02:18:01,400
Speaker 1: but we'll see you.

2905
02:18:01,400 --> 02:18:03,680
Speaker 3: You had a good run last thing, because I heard

2906
02:18:03,680 --> 02:18:06,119
Speaker 3: you mention it with Andy, because we got to get

2907
02:18:06,120 --> 02:18:09,280
Speaker 3: to a break here. I love the emotion after the game,

2908
02:18:09,680 --> 02:18:12,560
Speaker 3: and everybody's like Hartball's just in a hotel. Actually he

2909
02:18:12,720 --> 02:18:15,879
Speaker 3: was back watching the Michigan hockey team is how he

2910
02:18:15,959 --> 02:18:18,800
Speaker 3: spent his Saturday night. So you got that going for you.

2911
02:18:19,400 --> 02:18:21,640
Speaker 3: But the fact that they just played bully ball with

2912
02:18:21,720 --> 02:18:26,720
Speaker 3: Penn State and just said stop us with Con Edwards

2913
02:18:26,879 --> 02:18:29,439
Speaker 3: and just said we're just gonna beat you down.

2914
02:18:29,879 --> 02:18:30,520
Speaker 1: I one.

2915
02:18:30,760 --> 02:18:31,400
Speaker 4: I loved it.

2916
02:18:31,800 --> 02:18:35,200
Speaker 1: I love like the way Harball builds this team, and

2917
02:18:35,240 --> 02:18:38,360
Speaker 1: I love like the throwback nature of the Wolf Rings.

2918
02:18:38,760 --> 02:18:42,440
Speaker 1: It almost was as if both sham Beckler's ghost came

2919
02:18:42,440 --> 02:18:43,760
Speaker 1: down to the sideline said Jim.

2920
02:18:43,640 --> 02:18:44,400
Speaker 4: I got this one.

2921
02:18:44,560 --> 02:18:45,879
Speaker 3: We just gonna run.

2922
02:18:46,000 --> 02:18:48,240
Speaker 1: We're just gonna run it all the way out. They

2923
02:18:48,320 --> 02:18:51,880
Speaker 1: ran thirty two, I mean thirty two straight running plays

2924
02:18:51,920 --> 02:18:54,200
Speaker 1: in the second half and there's nothing more to moralized.

2925
02:18:54,200 --> 02:18:56,400
Speaker 1: And then someone just peppering you with the jab and

2926
02:18:56,440 --> 02:18:59,400
Speaker 1: the body blows over and over and over again, and

2927
02:18:59,520 --> 02:19:02,880
Speaker 1: even the oh they have a Heisman candidate and JJ McCarthy, Nah,

2928
02:19:02,959 --> 02:19:05,160
Speaker 1: we're just gonna run this out because that's what we do.

2929
02:19:05,400 --> 02:19:05,879
Speaker 1: I loved it.

2930
02:19:06,280 --> 02:19:08,280
Speaker 3: Oh, I thought it was. It was everything that you

2931
02:19:08,520 --> 02:19:10,600
Speaker 3: would want to see, right. I'm just this is what

2932
02:19:10,600 --> 02:19:13,080
Speaker 3: we're doing and we're just gonna overpower you. I mean,

2933
02:19:13,120 --> 02:19:16,600
Speaker 3: we've had many had the great pleasure of working with

2934
02:19:16,680 --> 02:19:20,640
Speaker 3: many x NFL guys, linemen especially. It's like when that

2935
02:19:20,760 --> 02:19:24,520
Speaker 3: run game's going, Yeah, there's no finer feeling than you know,

2936
02:19:25,000 --> 02:19:28,039
Speaker 3: taking a man's will. He's Bucky Brooks on by Carbon here,

Speaker 3: a couple of games to get to on the slate.

2939
02:19:35,640 --> 02:19:38,400
Speaker 3: One that in the AFC North that has a lot

2940
02:19:38,440 --> 02:19:41,080
Speaker 3: of interest and we'll see if someone can rise to

2941
02:19:41,160 --> 02:19:44,279
Speaker 3: the challenge with against an MVP candidate. That's next on Fox.

2942

2945
02:19:54,440 --> 02:19:58,360
Speaker 3: of minutes, Folks, get those last second fantasy moves in.

2946
02:19:58,560 --> 02:20:01,800
Speaker 3: If you have any Colts or Patriots you want to play,

2947
02:20:01,800 --> 02:20:03,600
Speaker 3: probably not a lot of guys going for you on

2948
02:20:03,680 --> 02:20:07,640
Speaker 3: the Patriots, but perhaps you know you've got to pick them.

2949
02:20:07,640 --> 02:20:11,240
Speaker 3: Contests that you participate in or things of that nature.

2950
02:20:12,240 --> 02:20:14,680
Speaker 3: And as I say that, the screens are graded out,

2951
02:20:14,760 --> 02:20:17,720
Speaker 3: so if you missed out we've got national anthems. We've

2952
02:20:17,760 --> 02:20:21,240
Speaker 3: got the pomp and pageantry and circumstance of the final

2953

Speaker 3: Progressive dot Com. Cleveland and Baltimore one of the games

2958
02:20:39,120 --> 02:20:42,400
Speaker 3: on the board here for later on, Bucky and for me,

2959
02:20:42,520 --> 02:20:45,600
Speaker 3: one of the more interesting games of the week. The

2960
02:20:45,760 --> 02:20:49,879
Speaker 3: Cleveland defense. Last week, you know, fantasy owners went to

2961
02:20:49,920 --> 02:20:52,720
Speaker 3: their lineup seeing how many points the Ravens put up

2962
02:20:52,760 --> 02:20:57,160
Speaker 3: and they said, wait, Lamar only did what And now

2963
02:20:57,280 --> 02:21:01,680
Speaker 3: you've got a chance for the Baltimore more offense. Odell

2964
02:21:01,720 --> 02:21:05,080
Speaker 3: Beckham Junior getting into the mix and starting to see

2965
02:21:05,120 --> 02:21:09,400
Speaker 3: more guys rise up alongside Mark Andrews against the Cleveland

2966
02:21:09,440 --> 02:21:13,320
Speaker 3: defense and Deshaun Watson. While he hasn't been great, they're

2967
02:21:13,320 --> 02:21:15,279
Speaker 3: playing winning football with him on the field.

2968
02:21:16,959 --> 02:21:18,959
Speaker 1: They are playing winning football within him on the field.

2969
02:21:19,240 --> 02:21:21,240
Speaker 1: And it's a big thing that he hasn't played there

2970
02:21:21,240 --> 02:21:23,320
Speaker 1: like a top five player, but he's been good enough

2971
02:21:24,080 --> 02:21:26,920
Speaker 1: for them to win games. And first game back, first

2972
02:21:26,920 --> 02:21:29,480
Speaker 1: full game back, he has been able to make some

2973
02:21:29,520 --> 02:21:31,320
Speaker 1: plays and Kevin Stefanski has kind of put to the

2974
02:21:31,320 --> 02:21:34,120
Speaker 1: offense in a situation where they able to win games.

2975
02:21:34,560 --> 02:21:36,440
Speaker 1: The big thing that you want to see from Cleveland

2976
02:21:37,240 --> 02:21:40,760
Speaker 1: can they just be balanced enough Menie, balance enough on

2977
02:21:40,879 --> 02:21:43,360
Speaker 1: offense to complement a defense. This lights out because the

2978
02:21:43,400 --> 02:21:45,720
Speaker 1: defense is good enough to get them into the tournament,

2979
02:21:45,959 --> 02:21:47,960
Speaker 1: but the offense will determine how far they can go

2980
02:21:48,000 --> 02:21:48,640
Speaker 1: in the tournament.

2981
02:21:48,959 --> 02:21:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, looking at the receiving cord, there obviously a lot

2982
02:21:52,280 --> 02:21:56,080
Speaker 3: of eyes on Amari Cooper, but trying to round out

2983
02:21:56,560 --> 02:22:01,120
Speaker 3: that compliment of players as well, we've seen Ford pick

2984
02:22:01,200 --> 02:22:04,640
Speaker 3: up pretty nicely. For Chubb went healthy. That's one of

2985
02:22:04,640 --> 02:22:08,160
Speaker 3: the games of the week obviously. Baltimore gust the Boss

2986
02:22:08,320 --> 02:22:12,280
Speaker 3: Edwards and Keaton Mitchell, who was the waver Waiver wire

2987
02:22:12,440 --> 02:22:16,440
Speaker 3: Darling coming off of his performance last week. It looks

2988
02:22:16,440 --> 02:22:18,160
Speaker 3: like he's gonna be able to go, so we will

2989
02:22:18,160 --> 02:22:22,039
Speaker 3: get the dual headed monster there for Cleveland. A little

2990
02:22:22,080 --> 02:22:24,520
Speaker 3: bit later. One of the more interesting stories of the

2991
02:22:24,520 --> 02:22:28,400
Speaker 3: week is the uh the many and varied journeys of

2992
02:22:28,480 --> 02:22:31,640
Speaker 3: Josh Dobbs doing interviews remember a couple of weeks ago

2993
02:22:31,680 --> 02:22:33,560
Speaker 3: we joked about the fact that he couldn't get a

2994
02:22:33,600 --> 02:22:36,320
Speaker 3: cardinal's jersey with his name on the back. Well, they

2995
02:22:36,360 --> 02:22:40,000
Speaker 3: remedied that. Now he went on the assault and just

2996
02:22:40,080 --> 02:22:42,400
Speaker 3: say on the offensive said yeah, I was told I

2997
02:22:42,440 --> 02:22:47,560
Speaker 3: wasn't getting dealt. So Jonathan Gannon in company, you lied.

2998
02:22:48,000 --> 02:22:51,080
Speaker 3: Now we predicted it, going back to last week doing

2999
02:22:51,120 --> 02:22:53,640
Speaker 3: the I Watch a Flex podcast and reading the tea

3000
02:22:53,720 --> 02:22:57,720
Speaker 3: leaves went on Monday, Gannon had said, well, you know what,

3001
02:22:57,800 --> 02:23:01,119
Speaker 3: I watched the tape and yeah, he's third, Like, okay,

3002
02:23:01,160 --> 02:23:04,480
Speaker 3: he's gonna get dealt. And fortunately we also predicted he

3003
02:23:04,520 --> 02:23:06,680
Speaker 3: was gonna go to my Minnesota, that that was the

3004
02:23:06,680 --> 02:23:09,720
Speaker 3: best fit. And he goes and he has that kind

3005
02:23:09,800 --> 02:23:12,760
Speaker 3: of game. We see the footage of him practicing his

3006
02:23:12,920 --> 02:23:15,720
Speaker 3: cadence on the sideline as he goes in. Obviously the

3007
02:23:15,800 --> 02:23:19,119
Speaker 3: rookie left early with an injury. But I mean, this

3008
02:23:19,160 --> 02:23:22,320
Speaker 3: is the stuff of Disney movies kind of things, of

3009
02:23:22,400 --> 02:23:27,680
Speaker 3: the twelve traveled quarterback with the engineering background and all

3010
02:23:27,680 --> 02:23:29,920
Speaker 3: of that. And now he's a guy that could propel

3011
02:23:30,080 --> 02:23:33,640
Speaker 3: Minnesota perhaps into a playoff birth they would be in

3012
02:23:33,680 --> 02:23:37,120
Speaker 3: if the you know, season stopped today, and you've got

3013
02:23:37,120 --> 02:23:39,920
Speaker 3: a team in New Orleans that now have another wide

3014
02:23:39,920 --> 02:23:41,360
Speaker 3: receiver in trouble with the law.

3015
02:23:43,360 --> 02:23:49,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's interesting because with Josh Dobbs and the

3016
02:23:49,240 --> 02:23:53,880
Speaker 1: situation Jonathan Gannon as he referred to him as jg uh,

3017
02:23:53,959 --> 02:23:55,320
Speaker 1: the one thing you can't do as a head coach.

3018
02:23:55,360 --> 02:23:56,199
Speaker 4: You can't lie to players.

3019
02:23:56,200 --> 02:23:58,400
Speaker 1: Players just want the truth, like, regardless of whether they

3020
02:23:58,440 --> 02:23:59,520
Speaker 1: like it or not. You just got to shoot it

3021
02:23:59,520 --> 02:24:01,520
Speaker 1: to him straight. If he was on the trade block,

3022
02:24:01,560 --> 02:24:03,080
Speaker 1: if you didn't want to play him because he was

3023
02:24:03,120 --> 02:24:05,360
Speaker 1: going to be traded, just tell the player that and

3024
02:24:05,400 --> 02:24:07,680
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have what we're getting now.

3025
02:24:07,640 --> 02:24:08,240
Speaker 4: Like just the.

3026
02:24:09,840 --> 02:24:13,360
Speaker 1: Spewing of hatred and Jonathan Gannon's direction because it won't

3027
02:24:13,560 --> 02:24:16,480
Speaker 1: hurt Jonathan Gallant Gannon with his relationship with Josh Dobbs

3028
02:24:16,480 --> 02:24:17,400
Speaker 1: because he may never see.

3029
02:24:17,240 --> 02:24:20,280
Speaker 4: Him again, but it could hurt him with others in that.

3030
02:24:20,360 --> 02:24:23,120
Speaker 1: Locker room who was like, man, his credibility, this dude

3031
02:24:23,120 --> 02:24:25,600
Speaker 1: to just say whatever, we won't back it up. So

3032
02:24:25,680 --> 02:24:27,600
Speaker 1: he has to be careful with that part of it.

3033
02:24:28,200 --> 02:24:31,280
Speaker 1: For Dobbs, I think it's amazing remarkable that he could

3034
02:24:31,320 --> 02:24:33,440
Speaker 1: go and do what he was able to do without practicing.

3035
02:24:33,800 --> 02:24:36,200
Speaker 1: You know, I'll never understand it. And Mike, I think

3036
02:24:36,240 --> 02:24:38,640
Speaker 1: we've had these conversations. I never understand why the backup

3037
02:24:38,720 --> 02:24:42,080
Speaker 1: quarterback doesn't get significant reps yes and practice. I mean,

3038
02:24:42,160 --> 02:24:44,320
Speaker 1: it just seems like we're at a time where this

3039
02:24:44,480 --> 02:24:47,400
Speaker 1: year midway point, I think anywhere from forty six to

3040
02:24:47,440 --> 02:24:51,800
Speaker 1: forty eight different starting quarterbacks have been in the mix.

3041
02:24:51,879 --> 02:24:54,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're our tenth roue he's starting today.

3042
02:24:54,840 --> 02:24:58,400
Speaker 1: It seems like if you have to, you might as

3043
02:24:58,440 --> 02:25:00,080
Speaker 1: well know that the second one is going to pl

3044
02:25:00,200 --> 02:25:03,160
Speaker 1: for you or sometime, so you probably should get them ready.

3045
02:25:03,720 --> 02:25:07,760
Speaker 1: But for him to do it without any practice reps,

3046
02:25:08,120 --> 02:25:11,520
Speaker 1: not understanding the play calls or anything, and just I

3047
02:25:11,560 --> 02:25:13,360
Speaker 1: don't know, just spitting it out and then having the

3048
02:25:13,480 --> 02:25:16,320
Speaker 1: receivers tell him it does kind of remind me of

3049
02:25:16,360 --> 02:25:19,480
Speaker 1: a beautiful mind where he's taken all of his engineering

3050
02:25:19,520 --> 02:25:24,400
Speaker 1: stuff and aerial space technology and he has these this, this, this, this,

3051
02:25:24,920 --> 02:25:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, these look through blackboards like in his mind

3052
02:25:28,720 --> 02:25:31,840
Speaker 1: over top of the offensive huddle, and he's trying to

3053
02:25:31,840 --> 02:25:34,119
Speaker 1: put the x's and o's and all that together while

3054
02:25:34,400 --> 02:25:37,400
Speaker 1: every receiver is doing it. And I know Kevin O'Connell

3055
02:25:37,400 --> 02:25:39,440
Speaker 1: helped him because they went tempo so he could stay

3056
02:25:39,440 --> 02:25:43,000
Speaker 1: in his and his headset. But to take what someone

3057
02:25:43,120 --> 02:25:47,080
Speaker 1: is verbally telling you and to visualize it in real time,

3058
02:25:47,800 --> 02:25:50,840
Speaker 1: that's a that's remarkable special given credit.

3059
02:25:51,400 --> 02:25:53,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's hard.

3060
02:25:53,120 --> 02:25:55,720
Speaker 3: When you haven't taken reps and you don't even know

3061
02:25:55,760 --> 02:25:58,640
Speaker 3: these guys' names. As he talked about, he goes, yeah,

3062
02:25:58,640 --> 02:26:00,800
Speaker 3: that's my job for the next week is don't learn

3063
02:26:00,840 --> 02:26:04,880
Speaker 3: their names. We're looking at Osborne. We'll have a game

3064
02:26:04,920 --> 02:26:08,400
Speaker 3: time decision on him coming out of concussion protocol. Hockinson

3065
02:26:08,440 --> 02:26:11,640
Speaker 3: banged up as well for the Vikings, But a big

3066
02:26:11,680 --> 02:26:14,440
Speaker 3: game for both those squads because New Orleans looks like

3067
02:26:14,480 --> 02:26:17,560
Speaker 3: they're starting to put some stuff together with Alvin Kamara

3068
02:26:17,640 --> 02:26:21,560
Speaker 3: becoming a bigger and bigger percentage of what they're doing

3069
02:26:22,160 --> 02:26:24,360
Speaker 3: week in week out. So that's one of the games

3070
02:26:24,400 --> 02:26:26,959
Speaker 3: to watch for later on. I want to circle back

3071
02:26:26,959 --> 02:26:30,599
Speaker 3: to Arizona in just a second, because well, some curiosity

3072
02:26:30,680 --> 02:26:33,400
Speaker 3: is in the wake of trading Josh Dobbs in terms

3073
02:26:33,440 --> 02:26:37,760
Speaker 3: of directionality for that squad. But first let's pause and

3074
02:26:37,840 --> 02:26:41,959
Speaker 3: let's send things over to our guy Isaiic Lowing Crown

3075

Speaker 1: Oh, I've bet there are a lot of nice comments

3124
02:29:11,200 --> 02:29:13,560
Speaker 1: on Brandon Staley and some of those coaching decisions. I

3125
02:29:13,640 --> 02:29:14,800
Speaker 1: might have to tune in check that out.

3126
02:29:14,840 --> 02:29:16,520
Speaker 3: But the other thing is, you know what you're always

3127
02:29:16,560 --> 02:29:18,600
Speaker 3: gonna get from Isaac. He's going to give you some

02:29:18,640 --> 02:29:21,920

Speaker 3: gonna get.

3130
02:29:22,320 --> 02:29:22,440
Speaker 6: Right.

3131
02:29:22,480 --> 02:29:24,240
Speaker 3: I love this. This is a specialty.

3132
02:29:24,440 --> 02:29:25,680
Speaker 2: This is a true story.

3133
02:29:26,480 --> 02:29:29,080
Speaker 8: Came across during one of our shows a comment from

3134
02:29:29,240 --> 02:29:33,680
Speaker 8: a tweeter whose actual Twitter handle was and I quote,

3135
02:29:34,040 --> 02:29:36,680
Speaker 8: I'll see Brandon stay in hell there you go.

3136
02:29:36,840 --> 02:29:38,520
Speaker 3: You know that might be one of my burner accounts

3137
02:29:38,560 --> 02:29:40,520
Speaker 3: because that is one of my great phrase olidies.

3138
02:29:40,560 --> 02:29:42,560
Speaker 8: Some of the fans out there are a little extreme,

3139
02:29:42,600 --> 02:29:44,240
Speaker 8: but we we take all comers.

3140
02:29:44,240 --> 02:29:44,720
Speaker 7: You got it.

3141
02:29:45,680 --> 02:29:45,960
Speaker 4: Wow?

3142
02:29:47,040 --> 02:29:49,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of pass not the Charges fan base,

3143
02:29:49,720 --> 02:29:51,880
Speaker 1: a lot of as well.

3144
02:29:51,920 --> 02:29:54,200
Speaker 3: But it's like me and my White Sox fandom. You know,

3145
02:29:54,560 --> 02:29:58,720
Speaker 3: there's not a lot of us, but we're pretty loud, right,

3146
02:29:58,760 --> 02:30:01,400
Speaker 3: because Thursday was a weird day, right. I saw the

3147
02:30:01,440 --> 02:30:04,720
Speaker 3: celebration of Jason Bennetti and I wish him, well, I

3148
02:30:05,040 --> 02:30:07,120
Speaker 3: want someone who's gonna talk to me like I have

3149
02:30:07,200 --> 02:30:12,160
Speaker 3: three brain cells. In other words, uh, you know, you know,

3150
02:30:12,240 --> 02:30:14,320
Speaker 3: I I know what I'm watching on the field. Don't

3151
02:30:14,360 --> 02:30:18,520
Speaker 3: lie to me. And then the Bears Panthers was I

3152
02:30:18,600 --> 02:30:20,760
Speaker 3: was on air for that, so that was kind of

3153
02:30:20,800 --> 02:30:24,879
Speaker 3: an interesting experiment. Mike Harmon and Bucky Brooks with you

3154
02:30:24,959 --> 02:30:29,600
Speaker 3: here live Fromthtirac dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios in Arizona.

3155
02:30:29,680 --> 02:30:32,720
Speaker 3: What are they doing, Bucky? You bring back Kyler Murray?

3156
02:30:32,840 --> 02:30:34,840
Speaker 3: Is it just you need to see him work with

3157
02:30:34,959 --> 02:30:37,880
Speaker 3: Jonathan Gannon for half a season so you have an

3158
02:30:37,920 --> 02:30:40,840
Speaker 3: idea of what you want to do long term? Because

3159
02:30:40,879 --> 02:30:43,640
Speaker 3: I thought when they were talking about maybe getting him

3160
02:30:43,680 --> 02:30:48,520
Speaker 3: back into the mix that it was more a concept of,

3161
02:30:48,920 --> 02:30:51,560
Speaker 3: all right, maybe he's trade bait ahead of the trade deadline.

3162
02:30:51,800 --> 02:30:54,600
Speaker 3: He's healthy. Look, he's ready to go, and the cost

3163
02:30:54,680 --> 02:30:57,600
Speaker 3: could be yours the price. If the price is right, right,

3164
02:30:57,640 --> 02:31:00,200
Speaker 3: he could he could be on your squad. But now

3165
02:31:00,200 --> 02:31:04,160
Speaker 3: you're also activating James Connor. Don't you want the number

3166
02:31:04,160 --> 02:31:05,199
Speaker 3: one or number two pick.

3167
02:31:06,879 --> 02:31:08,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, Like I can't really figure

3168
02:31:08,760 --> 02:31:11,000
Speaker 1: it out. But maybe they're always competing. Maybe they're looking

3169
02:31:11,520 --> 02:31:15,400
Speaker 1: and looking at the Texans and saying, hey, the Texans

3170
02:31:15,400 --> 02:31:17,600
Speaker 1: have found a way to compete and all these other things.

3171
02:31:17,920 --> 02:31:21,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I who knows. I can't really understand

3172
02:31:21,520 --> 02:31:24,440
Speaker 1: what they were doing because when they decided to sit down,

3173
02:31:24,560 --> 02:31:26,240
Speaker 1: Josh stops, who.

3174
02:31:26,320 --> 02:31:27,880
Speaker 4: I thought was playing fairly well for you.

3175
02:31:29,280 --> 02:31:33,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and and and put Clayton tune in his face,

3176
02:31:33,879 --> 02:31:36,360
Speaker 1: tone a in his face. I don't know. I just

3177
02:31:36,360 --> 02:31:39,440
Speaker 1: felt like, you're surrendering, waving the white flag. So now

3178
02:31:39,440 --> 02:31:43,199
Speaker 1: you're back, and you're bringing Callum Murray back. Uh. I understand,

3179
02:31:43,200 --> 02:31:45,760
Speaker 1: he's franchise quarterback. So when the franchise quarterback comes back,

3180
02:31:45,800 --> 02:31:48,240
Speaker 1: he has to go. But my point would be, uh,

3181
02:31:48,560 --> 02:31:49,640
Speaker 1: inn old Ricky.

3182
02:31:49,360 --> 02:31:51,720
Speaker 4: Waters quote for who for what?

3183
02:31:52,200 --> 02:31:57,960
Speaker 1: Like? What are like like what you do? Why are

3184
02:31:57,959 --> 02:32:00,400
Speaker 1: we bringing him back at this point of not going

3185
02:32:00,400 --> 02:32:03,000
Speaker 1: to the postseason. He's your franchise guy. You win, saw

3186
02:32:03,040 --> 02:32:06,280
Speaker 1: his statue, saw him come immortalize at Oklahoma. If he's

3187
02:32:06,320 --> 02:32:08,200
Speaker 1: your guy, then why are we putting him back on

3188
02:32:08,200 --> 02:32:08,600
Speaker 1: the field.

3189
02:32:09,120 --> 02:32:14,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is understand behind a bad offensive line.

3190
02:32:14,840 --> 02:32:16,920
Speaker 1: Just to get walloped.

3191
02:32:17,520 --> 02:32:22,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a bit confused by it myself, but hey,

3192
02:32:22,120 --> 02:32:24,800
Speaker 3: that's why they make the big bucks there to make

3193
02:32:24,840 --> 02:32:27,920
Speaker 3: those decisions and can't wait to see again. And later

3194
02:32:28,000 --> 02:32:31,879
Speaker 3: on they play it's a home date against the Atlanta Falcons.

3195
02:32:32,640 --> 02:32:35,080
Speaker 3: B Jhon Robinson is my mom used to use the

3196
02:32:35,120 --> 02:32:38,000
Speaker 3: phrase saving things for good? Is that kind of what

3197
02:32:38,000 --> 02:32:40,600
Speaker 3: we're doing here in Atlanta? I mean, I know John

3198
02:32:40,640 --> 02:32:42,840
Speaker 3: new Smith topped out at what twenty miles an hour

3199
02:32:42,920 --> 02:32:46,160
Speaker 3: running last week and all, and he's athletic, but you know,

3200
02:32:46,520 --> 02:32:49,680
Speaker 3: I watched in Andy's room what Bjon Robinson was capable of.

3201
02:32:51,680 --> 02:32:53,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I mean I can't really figure

3202
02:32:53,600 --> 02:32:55,520
Speaker 1: it out, you know what I mean. You get him,

3203
02:32:55,560 --> 02:32:57,520
Speaker 1: you expand the high pick to get him, but then

3204
02:32:57,560 --> 02:32:58,160
Speaker 1: he doesn't.

3205
02:32:58,480 --> 02:33:00,680
Speaker 4: He doesn't touch as much as I think you should

3206
02:33:00,720 --> 02:33:01,000
Speaker 4: touch it.

3207
02:33:01,040 --> 02:33:02,680
Speaker 1: Like, if you're don't spend a high pick on a

3208
02:33:02,720 --> 02:33:04,040
Speaker 1: running back, then what you want to do is you

3209
02:33:04,080 --> 02:33:05,800
Speaker 1: want to ride him to the wheels falloffs right away.

3210
02:33:05,800 --> 02:33:08,040
Speaker 1: We're not even worried about the second contract in those things.

3211
02:33:08,040 --> 02:33:11,600
Speaker 1: We're trying to maximize the opportunity with him getting touches

3212
02:33:11,760 --> 02:33:14,760
Speaker 1: and they haven't done it, which is weird considering Arthur

3213
02:33:14,800 --> 02:33:16,840
Speaker 1: Smith is one of the best run game designers that

3214
02:33:16,840 --> 02:33:18,680
Speaker 1: we've seen, and he had like he did it at

3215
02:33:18,680 --> 02:33:20,640
Speaker 1: a high level with Derrick Henry. He's done it, I

3216
02:33:20,640 --> 02:33:22,840
Speaker 1: mean recent his last year with the Atlanta Falcons. I

3217
02:33:22,840 --> 02:33:25,199
Speaker 1: don't know why they're not committed to running the football.

3218
02:33:24,800 --> 02:33:27,760
Speaker 3: Well and because that's the curiosity too, right, and why

3219
02:33:27,879 --> 02:33:29,360
Speaker 3: I was kind of down on him, like he was

3220
02:33:29,400 --> 02:33:31,800
Speaker 3: a guy that getting drafted as a top five in

3221
02:33:31,840 --> 02:33:33,720
Speaker 3: a lot of fantasy leagues. I'm like, you still have

3222
02:33:33,800 --> 02:33:37,400
Speaker 3: all gear and you still have if Cordero Patterson was

3223
02:33:37,440 --> 02:33:40,280
Speaker 3: healthy and you thought Ritter would leach off some of

3224
02:33:40,320 --> 02:33:42,680
Speaker 3: those runs as well. Now it's the Taylor Heineke show.

3225
02:33:42,720 --> 02:33:44,720
Speaker 3: But curiosity, which is.

3226
02:33:44,720 --> 02:33:48,280
Speaker 1: Another thing all in itself. After all year, Oh he's

3227
02:33:48,320 --> 02:33:51,480
Speaker 1: my guy, ridder is my guy, until he's not my guy,

3228
02:33:51,920 --> 02:33:53,760
Speaker 1: and now Tyler Heineke's my guy. We like some of

3229
02:33:53,800 --> 02:33:57,320
Speaker 1: the things that Hene can do, okay, like whatever it

3230
02:33:57,360 --> 02:33:59,800
Speaker 1: is you want, but they just seem like a hodgepodge of.

3231
02:34:00,640 --> 02:34:03,720
Speaker 3: Mess I think that's the nice way to sum that up.

3232
02:34:03,760 --> 02:34:06,840
Speaker 3: He's Bucky Brooks up. Mike Karmen here, Fox Football Sunday,

3233
02:34:06,879 --> 02:34:09,760
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio. Coming up next, we'll turn back to

3234
02:34:09,920 --> 02:34:12,520
Speaker 3: a couple of the big games of the day, some

3235
02:34:12,760 --> 02:34:16,040
Speaker 3: spotlights and a guy who lives at home he may

3236
02:34:16,040 --> 02:34:20,280
Speaker 3: have found and literally found the mother load. We'll talk

3237
02:34:20,320 --> 02:34:22,680
Speaker 3: about that coming up next here on Fox Sports Radio.

3238
02:34:23,440 --> 02:34:26,560
Speaker 3: Welcome back into the tire Act dot Com, Fox Sports

3239
02:34:26,680 --> 02:34:30,680
Speaker 3: Radio Studios, Mike Harmon alongside Bucky Brooks NFL dot Com,

3240
02:34:30,840 --> 02:34:34,200
Speaker 3: NFL Network with us here on Fox Sports Radio, of

3241
02:34:34,200 --> 02:34:36,480
Speaker 3: course a FS one working with the Jaguars. They've got

3242
02:34:36,480 --> 02:34:38,440
Speaker 3: a huge game a little bit later, one of the

3243
02:34:38,480 --> 02:34:41,840
Speaker 3: marquee games on the slate against the San Francisco forty

3244
02:34:41,920 --> 02:34:44,680
Speaker 3: nine ers. No pressure pressure here, Bucky, but I did

3245
02:34:44,680 --> 02:34:47,440
Speaker 3: pick the Jaguars to go to the Super Bowl, so

3246
02:34:48,520 --> 02:34:50,120
Speaker 3: not no pressu at all. Yeah. I like it to

3247
02:34:50,160 --> 02:34:54,519
Speaker 3: have them jump on your mighty back, and I'll be expecting,

3248
02:34:55,280 --> 02:34:58,240
Speaker 3: you know, some playoff shares when that comes to fruition

3249
02:34:58,320 --> 02:35:00,720
Speaker 3: for talking it into existence, We're brought to you by

3254
02:35:14,520 --> 02:35:18,640
Speaker 3: of the stories of the week is the tenth starting quarterback, yes,

3255
02:35:18,720 --> 02:35:23,040
Speaker 3: tenth rookie starting quarterback this year, and that's Tommy DeVito.

3256
02:35:23,120 --> 02:35:26,600
Speaker 3: We saw him in relief of the injured Daniel Jones. Again,

3257
02:35:26,760 --> 02:35:29,240
Speaker 3: another example of why are we bringing this guy back?

3258
02:35:30,080 --> 02:35:33,640
Speaker 3: He had a neck injury. He's at myriad hits. What

3259
02:35:33,720 --> 02:35:35,880
Speaker 3: are we trying to prove? You have already paid him?

3260
02:35:36,200 --> 02:35:39,160
Speaker 3: And then he goes down and obviously will now miss

3261
02:35:39,200 --> 02:35:42,039
Speaker 3: the next year plus. But Tommy DeVito goes into the

3262
02:35:42,080 --> 02:35:45,720
Speaker 3: game and he'll start later on heavy underdogs. We're talking

3263
02:35:45,720 --> 02:35:50,160
Speaker 3: about a seventeen point point spread against the Dallas Cowboys

3264
02:35:50,200 --> 02:35:54,000
Speaker 3: on the road at Dallas. We talked Micah Parsons earlier.

3265
02:35:54,080 --> 02:35:56,160
Speaker 3: He's hoping to get home a couple of days and

3266
02:35:56,800 --> 02:36:00,200
Speaker 3: a couple of times today so he can augment of

3267
02:36:00,200 --> 02:36:03,400
Speaker 3: those stats against DeVito. But a great story that came

3268
02:36:03,440 --> 02:36:05,400
Speaker 3: out was, I mean, the guy still lives at home,

3269
02:36:06,120 --> 02:36:10,040
Speaker 3: so he's only concentrating on football. Bucky Mom takes care

3270
02:36:10,080 --> 02:36:13,800
Speaker 3: of meals, his laundry, anything he's got going during the

3271
02:36:13,879 --> 02:36:18,360
Speaker 3: day other than practice and actually going to sleep. Putting

3272
02:36:18,360 --> 02:36:21,080
Speaker 3: a fork up to his mouth. I mean, everything's taken

3273
02:36:21,120 --> 02:36:22,680
Speaker 3: care of for him. That's a pretty good deal.

3274
02:36:23,600 --> 02:36:25,199
Speaker 1: It's a pretty good deal. I wonder if he still

3275
02:36:25,280 --> 02:36:28,880
Speaker 1: touches when he crawls into that twin bed of his

3276
02:36:29,360 --> 02:36:31,680
Speaker 1: and he looks up at those teen beat posters.

3277
02:36:31,800 --> 02:36:38,320
Speaker 3: Nice of you know, he's got the light.

3278
02:36:39,560 --> 02:36:42,040
Speaker 1: When he gets in his he gets in his Lightning

3279
02:36:42,080 --> 02:36:44,480
Speaker 1: mc queen bed and he's got his little posters up

3280
02:36:44,480 --> 02:36:48,480
Speaker 1: from Megan Fox and whoever else, and you know, and

3281
02:36:48,520 --> 02:36:51,440
Speaker 1: he says good night. You know, I wonder what's like

3282
02:36:51,480 --> 02:36:54,000
Speaker 1: as he pulls into the facility, thinking about, Oh, man,

3283
02:36:54,040 --> 02:36:55,920
Speaker 1: you know what I gotta do? Mom is on Man,

3284
02:36:55,920 --> 02:36:57,920
Speaker 1: I got to clean up the bathroom. I got to

3285
02:36:57,920 --> 02:36:59,960
Speaker 1: straighten up my room. I gotta make up my bed

3286
02:37:00,080 --> 02:37:02,600
Speaker 1: before I leave. I wondered west that. I mean, he's

3287
02:37:02,680 --> 02:37:04,560
Speaker 1: like a full going football camper.

3288
02:37:04,959 --> 02:37:07,560
Speaker 3: Mom let me loaf, he wanted.

3289
02:37:10,080 --> 02:37:13,680
Speaker 1: I mean, that's unbelievable, but that's smart though, Like how

3290
02:37:13,680 --> 02:37:16,560
Speaker 1: many guys are fortunate to play in their hometown close

3291
02:37:16,680 --> 02:37:18,800
Speaker 1: enough where they can do that. Like think about the

3292
02:37:18,840 --> 02:37:22,040
Speaker 1: amount of money that he's saving being in Look, being

3293
02:37:22,040 --> 02:37:25,000
Speaker 1: in New York, not having to pay rent, not having

3294
02:37:25,000 --> 02:37:28,280
Speaker 1: to buy anything, just you know, like the car to

3295
02:37:28,360 --> 02:37:31,640
Speaker 1: and from mom's house to the facility. I mean that's

3296
02:37:31,520 --> 02:37:33,680
Speaker 1: it looks this nice life for Timmy DeVito.

3297
02:37:34,000 --> 02:37:35,879
Speaker 3: Oh it's not bad, right, I mean we're not talking

3298
02:37:35,879 --> 02:37:38,840
Speaker 3: about a guy that was a you know, top notch

3299
02:37:38,959 --> 02:37:43,400
Speaker 3: rookie quarterback, bonus baby kind of thing. Save those save

3300
02:37:43,480 --> 02:37:46,760
Speaker 3: those dimes where you can. Yeah, and also your time

3301
02:37:46,840 --> 02:37:49,960
Speaker 3: if you literally only have to concentrate on football, Like

3302
02:37:50,000 --> 02:37:53,279
Speaker 3: that's the biggest thing he tried to emphasize when talking

3303
02:37:53,320 --> 02:37:56,640
Speaker 3: about is living a situation, right, I mean a bunch

3304
02:37:56,640 --> 02:37:59,400
Speaker 3: of guys we've seen them there driving their their old

3305
02:37:59,480 --> 02:38:02,920
Speaker 3: beaters for years into the league and whatever else. I mean,

3306
02:38:02,959 --> 02:38:05,039
Speaker 3: if you can save those dimes, why would you not?

3307
02:38:06,160 --> 02:38:08,520
Speaker 1: I mean really that it really is smart, Like like

3308
02:38:08,520 --> 02:38:10,879
Speaker 1: we kid, but it's really a smart thing. Like he's young.

3309
02:38:10,879 --> 02:38:12,920
Speaker 1: He doesn't have any attachment just having family of kids

3310
02:38:13,000 --> 02:38:15,280
Speaker 1: or anything like why not live with your mom? Let

3311
02:38:15,320 --> 02:38:17,600
Speaker 1: your mom do everything. He talked about mom give him

3312
02:38:17,640 --> 02:38:19,400
Speaker 1: chicken cutlets and all.

3313
02:38:19,400 --> 02:38:21,120
Speaker 3: Other stuff just coming home.

3314
02:38:21,480 --> 02:38:23,760
Speaker 1: I mean the other thing, I just have this thing

3315
02:38:23,840 --> 02:38:28,040
Speaker 1: he's having like ravioli and the woodles and noodles and

3316
02:38:28,400 --> 02:38:29,959
Speaker 1: whatever else that mom is making.

3317
02:38:30,800 --> 02:38:33,920
Speaker 3: Whatever gets through. Hey, mom My nutrition has said my

3318
02:38:34,000 --> 02:38:36,680
Speaker 3: sodium was a little bit of spaghettios. Yeah, we gotta

3319
02:38:36,720 --> 02:38:40,160
Speaker 3: get we gotta get it all canned, canned stuff. But no,

3320
02:38:40,440 --> 02:38:42,640
Speaker 3: it's all serious, is you know, you try to find

3321
02:38:42,680 --> 02:38:45,760
Speaker 3: your advantages whatever you're doing out there, however you're getting by.

3322
02:38:45,800 --> 02:38:48,400
Speaker 3: We appreciate you being part of the extended family for sure.

3323
02:38:48,680 --> 02:38:52,520
Speaker 3: And I appreciate this guy, undrafted free agent getting his shot.

3324
02:38:52,560 --> 02:38:54,879
Speaker 3: I hope he makes the most of it. Always rooting

3325
02:38:54,920 --> 02:38:58,240
Speaker 3: for an underdog story, but we talk about underdogs in

3326
02:38:58,280 --> 02:39:02,520
Speaker 3: a massive way here today, Bucky. You know, as we

3327
02:39:02,560 --> 02:39:05,240
Speaker 3: look at the slate and try to find some of

3328
02:39:05,240 --> 02:39:08,120
Speaker 3: those other gems on it. We've got a New England

3329
02:39:08,200 --> 02:39:11,000
Speaker 3: three to nothing lead here late first quarter at this point,

3330
02:39:11,000 --> 02:39:14,880
Speaker 3: but in the final minute. Is there a game outside

3331
02:39:14,920 --> 02:39:18,160
Speaker 3: of your own that really has your rapt attention in

3332
02:39:18,280 --> 02:39:20,360
Speaker 3: terms of kind of putting a team on the right

3333
02:39:20,840 --> 02:39:21,840
Speaker 3: path going forward?

3334
02:39:22,879 --> 02:39:24,360
Speaker 1: To me, this is a game, and we've talked about

3335
02:39:24,360 --> 02:39:27,720
Speaker 1: it a couple of different times, Cleveland Baltimore being a

3336
02:39:27,800 --> 02:39:30,480
Speaker 1: huge game. It's a huge game because everybody in the

3337
02:39:30,520 --> 02:39:33,240
Speaker 1: AFC North is above five hundred and they currently are

3338
02:39:33,280 --> 02:39:36,560
Speaker 1: sitting in the postseason tournament. So the winner of this

3339
02:39:37,160 --> 02:39:39,480
Speaker 1: has some advantages, particularly if it's to Baltimore Ravens. But

3340
02:39:39,480 --> 02:39:42,000
Speaker 1: if the Ravens lose to the Browns, you talk about

3341
02:39:42,040 --> 02:39:44,240
Speaker 1: the next few weeks being a mini round robin to

3342
02:39:44,240 --> 02:39:46,600
Speaker 1: determine who's going to win to AFC North, Love it,

3343
02:39:46,720 --> 02:39:47,400
Speaker 1: love it, love it.

3344
02:39:47,440 --> 02:39:50,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm hoping to steal a couple of side by

3345
02:39:50,240 --> 02:39:53,000
Speaker 3: sides of Mike Tomlin given side eye to George Pickens

3346
02:39:53,040 --> 02:39:55,800
Speaker 3: for something that goes weird on the sideline. We've got

3347
02:39:55,800 --> 02:40:00,000
Speaker 3: the history teams of the Packers and Steelers getting after

3348
02:40:00,080 --> 02:40:02,680
Speaker 3: at Matt Canada will be on the sideline again. Nobody

3349
02:40:02,680 --> 02:40:05,560
Speaker 3: has gotten more run about where he will be physically

3350
02:40:05,680 --> 02:40:09,680
Speaker 3: located for a game than Matt Canada, but obviously Detroit

3351
02:40:09,840 --> 02:40:12,200
Speaker 3: and the Chargers. For me, we got a lot of

3352
02:40:12,200 --> 02:40:17,680
Speaker 3: folks that we know that have vested interests in these games. Yeah,

3353
02:40:17,720 --> 02:40:20,520
Speaker 3: so all of that coming up today, Bucky, Thanks for

3354
02:40:20,560 --> 02:40:23,280
Speaker 3: hanging have a great call today. We'll talk to you

3355
02:40:23,360 --> 02:40:26,240
Speaker 3: during the week. Mike hopped out. A kickoff is next
