34
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is he back? Is the MVP back? He's back?

35
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: Like we're gonna have a quarterback round up a little

36
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: later in the show. We're gonna have a little way

37
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: too early worry meter in just a bit. We're also

38
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: watching all the college football games UCLA at LSU that

39
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: just kicked off.

40
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 3: As we know is this is Carmeie's new family team.

41
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: So you might hear her freak out at any point

42
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: during the show if something goes.

43
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 5: Down in my existence.

44
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: It is it is, But that's okay.

45
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 5: As long as to being it, I know, I'm not

46
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 5: accepting it. This is supposed to be.

47
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: You're understanding it.

48
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: I don't want to say you're accepting it, but like

49
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: you're going into it knowing the history and knowing the

50
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: past and now you're here.

51
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 4: In their purple jerseys. Yeah, that's a very and for

52
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 4: people that don't know LS football. That's a very controversial

53
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 4: thing right now. They're playing at home in their purple jerseys.

54
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 4: They don't historically play well in their purple jerseys, and

55
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 4: if they get swept by the California teams, there's going

56
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 4: to be a crisis of faith in Baton rooms.

57
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 2: We also have a USC at the Big House right

58

Speaker 4: Through no, like I my anxiety is already through the

87
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 4: roof just watching. Yeah, my team, the teams that I like,

88
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,880

89
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 4: it's the teams that I've already picked, and I want

90
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 4: to be right. I want to be right more than

91
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 4: anything else in the entire world.

92
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, welcome to being a control freak.

93
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 5: This is both of us. Were a woman in sports,

94
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 5: true one.

95
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, all the above. We've got a great show for

96
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: you guys today though, because we have Arizona Cardinals team

97
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: reporter Danny Surrek, good friend of Karmie, joining us. In

98
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: about thirty minutes, Dodgers broadcast Jose Mota, an hour two

99
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: producer Patrick with us today the Birthday Boy technical producer

100
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: Chris Perfett. Kevin wired at the news desk and like

101
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: I said, we're going to keep you updated on all

102
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 2: the college football action today as it goes down. But

103
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 2: let's get started with the way too early worry meter,

104
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 2: which Carmen corrected me when we were talking about this yesterday.

105
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 5: Week three is not too early to start worrying.

106
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: It's after two games. So let two games in the

107
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: week one is a wash. Anything can happen there. But

108
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: week two we had like a little bit of chaos.

109
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 4: Less than one in six teams that starting to make

110
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 4: the posts.

111
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 3: Oh yes, no, we're like, we know, so this is big.

112
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: So we're gonna go through what players, teams, or coaches

113
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: are you worried about kind of make or break week three?

114
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: For like, who we're going to talk about here? I'll

115
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: go first. Okay, I'm gonna start with the Ravens. Yeah,

116
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: they are zero in two. As we all saw, they

117
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 2: lost in the Chiefs by a toe literally in week one,

118
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 2: and then last week was kind of the Okay, maybe

119
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: we need to start worrying loss to the Raiders. Yeah,

120
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: but what makes me worried were the players responses. We

121
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: heard Lamar Jackson say they need to find their mojo,

122
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 2: but we also heard another teammate say, we got to

123
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: get our pride back. I mean, this is an issue

124
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: if you should have you should have your confidence, your mojo,

125
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: your pride. The ViBe's right when the season starts and

126
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: they don't have that at all, Like hearing your leaders

127
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: on this team doubt kind of the vibe, the energy,

128
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: the mojo, everything that goes into like you need to

129
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: believe that you are going to win these games if

130
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: you are going to win these games. And the rating

131
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 2: MVP Lamar Jackson not really having an MVP start to

132
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: the season.

133
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: His numbers are middle of the pack.

134
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 2: Now they're going into Jerry World with the Cowboys team

135
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: who also got incredibly embarrassed last week at home.

136
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 3: So this is a make or.

137
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 2: Break game for both Cowboys and Ravens, but especially for Baltimore.

138
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 3: And let me tell you why. We kind of talked

139
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 3: about this off the top.

140
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: Since twenty twenty, the first season we moved into the

141
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 2: new playoff format, sixteen teams have started oh and three.

142
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: None of them have made it to the postseason. Since

143
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety, the first season of the twelve team two

144
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 2: wildcard playoff format, one hundred and sixty two teams have

145
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 2: started oh and three, only four have made it to

146
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: the postseason. That's two point five percent. This is a

147
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 2: must win for the Ravens. Odds are not in their favor. Also,

148
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: like Derek Henry needs to like get it going too.

149
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: He only had one hundred and thirty rushing yards in

150
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: two games. Lamar has one hundred and sixty seven. But

151
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously Lamar is the dual threat. But they

152
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 2: have the talent. But they have to go into Dallas

153
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: and they have to win. They have to win.

154
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 4: It's the reason I was so excited about the Ravens

155
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 4: getting Derrick Henry. Yes, because of what you could do

156
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: in the run scheme. When you have two legitimate threats

157
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 4: in the backfield and one of which is your quarterback.

158
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: Yes, who thus more rushing yards?

159
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 5: He No, I mean that's fine.

160
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 4: Honestly, it was the game against the Raiders that shocked

161
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 4: me the most because Lamar Jackson only had forty five

162
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 4: rushing yards in that game. He only rushed five times

163
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 4: and they were scrambled. You're not designing runs for Lamar

164
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 4: Jackson as often as I would think you would. He's

165
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: rushing seven point two percent of the time according to

166
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 4: PFF's metrics. Yeah, undesigned runs, Yeah, I should say, And

167
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 4: I just I don't know whether that's coming from Okay,

168
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: you just paid this guy. You don't want to risk injury?

169
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 4: Does he not want to take the hits because he

170
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 4: wants to prove that he's a passer. I would think

171
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 4: that your second MVP last year would prove to everybody

172
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: that you are a legitimate quarterback.

173
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 5: In this league.

174
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 4: I haven't seen enough creativity out of this offense given

175
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 4: what it is capable of with Lamar Jackson and Derreck

176
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: Henry together, And that's what is the concerning part to me.

177
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 4: But I also feel like because they're not reaching that potential, Yeah,

178
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: there is room for improvement and they just they haven't

179
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 4: had yet.

180
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 5: No, but they can.

181
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 2: It has to happen tomorrow in Don Dallas, because, like

182
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: I just said, the odds are not in their favor.

183
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: If they go oh to three sixteen teams since twenty twenty,

184
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: I have started owing three, none of them have made

185
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 2: the postseason. And like I said, since nineteen ninety one

186
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty two teams have started owning three, only

187
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 2: four have made the postseason. And what's the one big

188
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 2: criticism that we've all been giving Lamar Jackson, Like through

189
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: this incredible MVP caliber career that he's had, two time MVP,

190
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: he doesn't have the postseason success. Now you're not going

191
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: to get there if you start the season this way,

192
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: the odds are in your favor. You need to turn

193
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: it around. It is a must win for Lamar in

194
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 2: the Ravens tomorrow. They have to get this done.

195
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 4: They do, And I would try to say that it's

196
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 4: more important that the Ravens for the Ravens to win

197
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 4: tomorrow than it is the Dallas Cowboys.

198
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: Oh kay, they have a win and it was an

199
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 2: embarrassing loss, but right, But I mean I.

200
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 5: Also am like, oh my god, I think the Saints

201
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 5: are for real?

202
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

203
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like Week one with the Carolina Panthers, I took

204
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 4: absolutely nothing from that, like going into Jerry World and

205
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 4: just I mean that was just an absolute.

206
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: Like what happened?

207
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 8: Right?

208
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 2: Like did they overlook the Saints? Did they not like

209
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 2: gain no plan correctly? Like they lost.

210
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 3: Forty four to ninth. The reason that WF happened Dallas.

211
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 4: The reason that the beginning of the season is always

212
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 4: so kind of topsy turvy every year in the league

213
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 4: is because you don't have film on what these teams

214
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 4: are going to look like this year. So Clint Kubiak

215
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 4: comes in in New Orleans, and I don't think anybody

216
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 4: realized like just how much of an overhaul he was

217
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,319
Speaker 4: going to be able to do because the roster looked

218
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 4: so similar. Yeah, but these guys look like new men.

219
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 4: Derek Carr looks like a new man. Alvin Kamara looks

220
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 4: like the Alvin Kamara from five years ago. This is

221
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 4: it's an incredible turnaround just from having a new offensive coordinator.

222
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 4: But teams don't didn't expect that. They don't know how

223
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 4: to defend that. They don't have film of Clink Kubiak

224
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 4: scheme in New Orleans. So like as teams kind of

225
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 4: get wise to this as like four games is like

226
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 4: the magic number. Yeah, that's what most coaches will tell

227
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 4: you they want to look at. Yeah, preparing for an opponent,

228
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 4: they'll watch the last four games or you know, four

229
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: games throughout the season. They don't have that sample size yet,

230
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 4: So it's going to be interesting to see how teams

231
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 4: adjust for the fact that the Norland Saints are very

232
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 4: much for real and Kink Kubiak has unlocked so many

233
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 4: good things there.

234
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 2: I mean, Cowboys weren't in it from the get go.

235
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 2: The scen's first six offensive drives ended up in touchdowns.

236
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: Like how what at your home opener?

237
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 5: Yeah?

238
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 3: Your home opener?

239
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Cowboys also like little little not as far

240
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 2: on the Worr meter for me as the rape, but

241
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 2: Dallas is it's it's pushing there. It's we saw two

242
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: different teams in the first two games, so like who

243
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: are you?

244
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 5: That's why are you?

245
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 4: That's why I end up saying this offseason Alex about, hey,

246
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 4: maybe you need someone other than Ceedee Lamb for Dak Prescott.

247
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 5: To throw to.

248
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: Also like pay your guys, but like not like the

249
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 2: day I kind of sit out the entire like preseason.

250
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, there's also that No, I I

251
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: mean like they'll that'll like Ceedee Lamb will get up

252
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 2: to speed and all that other stuff like that should

253
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 2: be remedied by.

254
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 3: This week, but like a couple of weeks as we're

255
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 3: seeing and.

256
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 4: That's we be remedy by this week. But at the

257
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 4: same time, there's nothing like, you did nothing to bolster

258
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 4: the run game to help Dak Prescott. You did nothing

259
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 4: to add a true number two because we haven't seen

260
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 4: Brandon Cooks people to do that in a couple of seasons.

261
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 4: Now maybe he can, who knows, but that's putting a

262
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 4: lot on him.

263
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

264
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 5: Jake Ferguson has been battling through.

265
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 4: Injury in their tight end, so like, not only do

266
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 4: you not have the guys in the starting offense, but

267
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 4: you also have zero depth. Like I've said this till

268
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 4: I was blue in the face.

269
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 5: I don't need to keep saying hurting on it.

270
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: Okay, so we've hit Ravens, worried Cowboys were teetering there?

271
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 3: Who else you got?

272
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 4: I'm going with the Bengals first because there's there's another team,

273
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 4: but we're going to get to that at some point.

274
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 4: I think that Again, much has been made about the

275
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 4: fact that they're owing to but this is something that.

276
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 5: Bengals just do.

277
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, they start the season really and honestly, I mean

278
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: talk about guys that were close to beating the Chiefs.

279
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 5: They were close. They were lost of the Chiefs by

280
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 5: one point. I mean that game could have.

281
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 3: Gone either way.

282
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 4: It was the dp I call right at the end,

283
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: which was DPI. Let me be clear it was it

284
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 4: was DPI, But I mean when that call swayed the game,

285
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 4: just like into the Chiefs favor. The Bengals were the

286
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 4: better team for a majority of that game. I'm not

287
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 4: worried about them. They now T Higgins. We heard in

288
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 4: an update yep, off the injury report entirely that gat

289
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 4: so he should be playing. Okay, It's probably gonna take

290
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 4: him a little bit to get up to speed. But

291
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 4: the fact that there is another weapon outside of Jamar

292
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 4: Chase at the defense will now have to account for.

293
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 4: He's going to open up so much for this offense.

294
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 4: And I am not worried about them at all. I

295
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,839
Speaker 4: think this is their get right game coming up this week,

296
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 4: given the fact that T Higgins is back. They're already

297
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 4: tenth in red zone scoring without T Higgins. Okay, so

298
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 4: I have to imagine like all of their offensive metrics

299
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 4: are going to go up given the fact that they

300
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 4: now have legitimate threats and Andre Yoshvas.

301
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 5: They're little come out of nowhere wide receiver.

302
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 4: He's a legitimate number three, and he's been carrying the

303
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 4: team with Jamar Chase just bracketed to hell every game

304
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 4: at this point. And now you're gonna have like you're

305
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 4: gonna open some things up. You saw Joe Burrow use

306
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 4: his tight ends, especially in Week one even against the Chiefs.

307
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 4: There are quite a few options now for Joe Burrow,

308
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 4: and I trust him to distribute it. So I'm not

309
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 4: actually that worried about their Bengals. I haven't been that

310
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 4: worried about the Bengals even with the O and two start.

311
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I again, we just talked about the oh

312
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: and three starts. So this is I think a must

313
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 2: win for Burrow and the Bengals. But he started four

314
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: of his five seasons oh and two, right, But that one.

315
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 3: Season he didn't start OH and two, that was the

316
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 3: year they made it to the super Bowl.

317
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 4: Right, So you get you get a Commander's team that

318
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 4: is still very much figgering thing.

319
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, young everything everything.

320
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 4: I trust Louianna Roumo to be able to get after

321
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 4: Jane and Daniels.

322
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 5: Shout out big glue.

323
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 4: We saw Todd Bowles be able to do that in

324
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 4: Week one against Jane Daniels and the Commanders I think

325
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 4: that loui Ana Rumo can scheme up some wonderful things.

326
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 4: And then that secondary again, really good secondary in Cincinnati

327
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 4: that can disguise coverages and gets after the ball like crazy.

328
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 5: So I'm not worried. I'm not wried about the Bengals.

329
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have one more here, someone. I'm worried about

330
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 2: Nick siriannim and they are playing the Saints on the

331
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 2: road tomorrow. Saints are favored at home by three. We've

332
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: just we were just talking about it, right, Saints have

333
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 2: looked really good, Derek Carr, typer Ferson passing touchdowns, best

334
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 2: passer rating through two weeks, and that Eagles Monday night

335
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 2: loss heartbreaking, like just heartbreaking.

336
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 5: For that talk we cover too, we should ban the

337
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 5: prevent defense.

338
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 2: Like if you don't turn things around. Now, this feels

339
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 2: like something that can go downhill pretty fast, kind of

340
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 2: like the end of last season, and if you include

341
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 2: last season, they've lost seven other last nine games, and

342
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: we've seen like we've talked about Nick Sirianni being on

343
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 2: the hot seat like over the last couple seasons, like

344
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: in and out like for a bit. There was also

345
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 2: rumors floating around that the Eagles would be interested in

346
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick.

347
00:15:58,720 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 3: If things didn't work out with Nicks.

348
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 2: So it's like, what are you doing, You're already, You're

349
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: already kind of like dangling these rumors in front of him.

350
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 3: There was also the rumors that it's.

351
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 4: Funny almost bought the Patriots, but then Robert Kraft got

352
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 4: the Patriots instead, and now you're gonna steal Bill Belichick

353
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 4: from the pagot. It's just it's a funny, little small world.

354
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 4: Uh huh. I. There were a lot of things that

355
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 4: were out of Syrianni's control in that game, like Kellen

356
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 4: Moore deciding after they had so much success on the

357
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 4: ground they ran the ball thirty eight times in week two,

358
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 4: but then when the game is on the line on

359
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 4: third and three, you decide to pass the ball to Saquon,

360
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 4: especially because Sirianni comes out and says, oh, there's a

361
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 4: mechanism built into that play where Jalen could just take

362
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: a sack if it's not wide open.

363
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 5: Hey, what it was wide open?

364
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, b If you're okay with your quarterback taking a sack,

365
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 4: then why aren't you okay with your quarterback just running

366
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 4: the ball? You're running quarterback by the way. Yeah, running

367
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 4: the ball and sitting down at the one and running

368
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 4: the clock out, there was no reason to call a pass,

369
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 4: especially when the run had been working for you at

370
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 4: that point. So, like Kellen Moore, just don't get cute

371
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 4: player game. It's incredibly complete. You're gonna need to because

372
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 4: this New Orleans offense scores Yeah, like seventy six point

373
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 4: two percent scoring drives sixteen out of twenty one, ranks

374
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 4: first in the NFL. Yeah, no, they rank second and

375
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 4: third and fourth down conversion rate.

376
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 3: Derek Carr is red hot to start this season.

377
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 4: He especially when he is not under pressure. Yeah, so

378
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 4: you're gonna your ego. This Eagles team ranks eleventh in

379
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 4: pressures right now. You need to get after Derek Carr

380
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 4: because otherwise it is going to be Derek Carr and

381
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,239
Speaker 4: the New Orleans Saints coming march, marching in to their

382
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 4: own stadium, but marching in.

383
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: And that's like one of the loudest stadiums, right, it's

384
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 2: so loud.

385
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 4: So it's my least favorite stadium, Alex. Why, Well, from

386
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 4: a working perspective, the press box is all the way up, brutal.

387
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 5: It's literally I get vertigo.

388
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, being up there.

389
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 5: It's open air.

390
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is the most frigid because all of somehow

391
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 4: like all of the air caning.

392
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 5: Is like at the top of the stadium nice. So

393
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 5: like no, because you're right there.

394
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 3: I love it. I'm like icebox. No, gimme and I Alex,

Speaker 5: I grew up in Chicago.

397
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 4: I love the cold. I cannot handle it there. It

398
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 4: is so cold you can't even think. It's so loud,

399
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 4: you can't even think. The food's not even good.

451
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 11: was made Thursday night in Miami show Hey O Taani

452
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 11: founded the fifty to fifty club, the first player in

453
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 11: the history of the game to have fifty home runs

454
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 11: and fifty stolen bases. And don't worry, last night he

455
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 11: already made it the fifty two fifty two club. But

456
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 11: Thursday night's game was possibly the best regular season game

457
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 11: we have ever seen, where he went six for six,

458
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 11: three home runs, ten RBI, two stolen bases. But I

459
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 11: just want to play Joe Davis's call for home run

460
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 11: number fifty because this thing is just chills.

461

Speaker 2: to get it over, which is so show hee o Tani,

469
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,600

00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 2: it's all about winning. And I just gotta say, Otani

00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 12: one over in and Arbor number eleven, USC number eighteen,

548
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 12: Michigan and the Wolverines already getting a big play on

549
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 12: the day.

550
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 8: Or she takes the snap hand off to Mullins running

551
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 8: up the Middle's got a forty.

552
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 5: Five forty col Mullings in the clear.

553
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 7: Well, look at this outside the numbers to the.

554
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 13: Ten to the five touchdown, Wolverines come out, Mullings takes

555
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 13: it to the house.

556
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 12: John Jansen on the Michigan Sports Network from lear Field

557
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 12: with the call. So that was a fifty three yard

558
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 12: score to put the Wolverines on top seven to nothing,

559
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 12: and they got a little over ten minutes ago in

560
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 12: the second quarter. Ucla down in Baton Rouge taking on

561
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 12: sixteenth ranked LSU. And right now it's the Bruins leading

562
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 12: this one at ten to seven.

563
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 5: Ullus, you discord ls you.

564
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 12: Just go out take that back then, So what's now

565
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 12: the Tigers back in front. It was a touchdown, right.

566
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 2: So it's about touchdown just as I speak, right on,

567
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 2: I think the extra port at fourteen to.

568
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 7: Fourteen to ten pen in the extra point.

569
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 12: The other ranked team in action number seventeen, Notre Dame

570
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 12: Man they're having some issues with the MAC this year.

571
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 12: It seems they're in the middle of the second quarter.

572
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 12: They lost to Northern milling Away a couple of weeks ago.

573
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 12: They're trailing Miami of Ohio. Yeah, not the Miami of Florida.

574
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 12: The Miami of Ohio is leading the Irish in a

575
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 12: South bend three nothing.

576
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, they've still got nine minutes ago in the second quarter.

577
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 12: But it is notable that Notre Dame continuing to struggle

578
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 12: on offense against MAC competition number nineteen Louisville on top

579
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 12: of Georgia Tech. It's fourteen to seven. They got about

580
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,439
Speaker 12: eleven minutes ago. And speaking of Northern Illinois, they're now

581
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 12: in the rankings twenty third in the country and they're

582
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 12: on top of Buffalo right now, seven to three. Elsewhere

583
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 12: in college football, Arkansas leading Auburn seven nothing.

584
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 7: They've got nine minutes.

585
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 12: Ago in that contest, Arizona State Texas Tech the Red

586
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 12: Raiders on top, fourteen to three. Navy leads Memphis twenty

587
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 12: one to fourteen in the second quarter. Some games have

588
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 12: gone a final Ohio State in action against Marshall, and

589
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 12: this one went as expected for the Buck guys as

590
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 12: they win forty nine to fourteen. Number twenty one Clemson

591
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 12: a beatdown of NC State fifty nine to thirty five,

592
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 12: and James Madison, how about the Dukes seventy points? Yeah,

593
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 12: they put down on North Now it's seventy to fifties

594
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 12: of the final score. The game was not even near

595
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 12: that close. It was fifty three to twenty one at

596
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 12: half time. Three years removed from the FCS. Who needs defense, right,

597
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 12: I hope you're gonna go over on that one man. Yeah,

598
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 12: three years removed from the FCS. They're beating and like, so,

599
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 12: what was one point? An undefeated ACC team in North

600
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 12: Carolina to the tar Heels now three and won. The Dukes,

601
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 12: for their part, are two and zero on the season. Florida,

602
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 12: maybe Billy and Nippier has a bit of a reprieve

603
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 12: that you get the win against Mississippi State forty five

604
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 12: to twenty eight. Indiana blows out Charlotte fifty two to fourteen.

605
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 12: NFL injury news, we did get some updates Ian Rappaport

606
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 12: saying that the forty nine Ers have downgraded tight end

607
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 12: George Kittle to being out. So that's another big loss

608
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 12: for the forty nine ers team.

609
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's gonna be both of them.

610
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 12: The all injury reserve matchup on Sunday in Los Angeles,

611
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 12: there forty nine and Rams. The Saints have downgraded Taysom

612
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 12: Hill to doubtful. He's got a chest injury, so that

613
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 12: Swiss Army knife might not be available for New Orleans,

614
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 12: and the Jaguars have ruled out Titan Evan Ingram for

615
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 12: Monday's game. Joe Mixon has been downgraded to out, so

616
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 12: he's not even traveling with the Houston Texans for their

617
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 12: game against the Vikings. But for the Cincinnati Bengals, did

618
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 12: he get some good news. T Higgins, he said he

619
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 12: was gonna play Monday. Zach Taylor said he was gonna

620
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 12: play Monday. Now he's officially off of the injury reports,

621
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 12: so we should expect to see Higgins back out on

622
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 12: the field on Monday. And a big piece of baseball

623
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 12: interesting piece of baseball news, I should say, the Nationals

624
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 12: have demoted short stop. They're All Stars short stop CJ. Aramsia.

625
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 12: He was hitting two oh three since the All Star break.

626
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 12: Butt went out to a casino late night before a

627
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 12: day game, and now he finds look out to the

628
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 12: spring training complex while he he'll finish out his season

629
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 12: for the Nationals there, not with the big league club.

630
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 7: So thanks that you, guys.

631
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: Thank you Kevin.

Speaker 2: to bring in our first guest, Arizona Cardinals team reporter

637
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 2: Danny Sirk.

638
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 3: Thank you for joining the show.

639
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 14: Thanks for having me on, guys.

640
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 4: Hi Danny, Hi Car, I'm so excited to talk to you,

641
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 4: and I have to imagine the vibes are so high

642
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 4: right now in teffee at the training facility.

643
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 14: I mean, coming off that win, absolutely.

644
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 4: That dominating, when yeah, not even close. Also love the

645
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 4: fact that we're seeing what we wanted to see from

646
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 4: Kyler Murray. I mean, how happy are you for Kyler

647
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 4: specifically given I mean he comes back last year doesn't

648
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 4: look the same, clearly still dealing with an e issue,

649
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 4: and now this year.

650
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 5: It's just like full throttle. He's killing.

651
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 14: This off season. Kyler had made a comment that this

652
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 14: was the best he felt in terms of being set

653
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 14: up for success and how happy he was since his

654
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 14: Heisman year when he was in college. And I think

655
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 14: that you're seeing that already through two weeks. Kyler physically

656
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 14: is doing the things that he can do and that

657
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 14: people expected of him as the franchise quarterback. And I

658
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 14: think that in large part due to being in the

659
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 14: second year under head coach Jarathan Gannon and really liked

660
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 14: working with his offensive cornator Drew Pepsy, and Murray says

661
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 14: that the two of them see the game very similarly,

662
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 14: and you're able to see Murray just kind of play comfortably.

663
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 14: He's not overthinking he's going out there, and because they

664
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 14: have surrounded him with so many weapons and they really

665
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 14: worked on the offensive line in free agency this year,

666
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 14: Murray's been set up for success with every piece of

667
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 14: the offense, and that's allowing him to go out and

668
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 14: not only do with being asked of him, but pair

669
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 14: that with his natural ability and the way he's able

670
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 14: to extend plays with his legs in a way that

671
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 14: not a lot.

672
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 3: Of quarterbacks are now Danny.

673
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray has taken some criticism in the past for

674
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 2: his work ethic, most notably the infamous homework clause that

675
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 2: used to be in his contract. So what's been the

676
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: difference for him in terms of the preparation like leading

677
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 2: into the season and especially now having two pretty strong

678
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 2: first two games.

679
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 14: You could tell in the off season that he was

680
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 14: much more intent about working with his receivers, with his

681
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 14: running backs, with his offensive linemen outside of the facility.

682
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 14: I mean, wide receiver Michael Wilson said that he stayed

683
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 14: in Arizona this offseason for the sole reason to be

684
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 14: around Kyler Murray and continue working together and building that chemistry.

685
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 14: And Murray really stepped up of planning multiple trips with

686
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 14: his off in alignment with his weapons, not only making

687
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 14: sure that you are building chemistry on the field, but

688
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 14: also that camaraderie off the field, and when you're out

689
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,719
Speaker 14: there and you're in the trenches and you're going far

690
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 14: every single play, when you know the type of person

691
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 14: that you're blocking for, or you're running with, or you're

692
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 14: catching the pass from, you want to work that much

693
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 14: harder for that person. I think that was really intentional

694
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 14: move this offseason by Murray to make sure that he

695
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 14: really was being that leader that was needed. This is

696
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 14: honestly the first time that this locker room is not

697
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 14: filled with really significant veterans. I mean, when think of

698
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 14: the locker room just as of the last couple of years,

699
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 14: you had DeAndre Hopkins, you had JJ Watt, you had

700
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 14: all these players that had been in the league for

701
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 14: so long that they were helping lead that locker room.

702
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 14: And now that it is a much younger locker room,

703
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 14: it's allowed Kyler Murray to kind of step up and

704
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 14: be the type of leader that he is and again

705
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 14: that you would want and expect from a franchise quarterback.

706
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 4: Well, and I mean, I think after the Week one,

707
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 4: we saw the Cardinals obviously invested heavily in getting Marvin

708
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 4: Harrison Junior as a young weapon for Kyler Murray that

709
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 4: he can continue to build with, and we saw the

710
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 4: first game didn't go as anybody really had hoped. And

711
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 4: then this last week there was such an intentionality behind

712
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 4: Kyler getting Marvin Harrison Junior the ball, And not only that,

713
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 4: but I think we got a glimpse into the chemistry

714
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 4: that they already have, given the fact that a lot

715
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 4: of those passes came with Kyler on the run, kind

716
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 4: of scrambling around in the backfield, doing those things with

717
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 4: his legs that only he can really do, but still

718
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 4: connecting with Marvin Harrison Junior, and then being on the

719
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 4: same page. What have you seen from the rookie then,

720
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 4: and how he's been working with Kyler.

721
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 14: It makes sense why Kyler Murray and other teammates of

722
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 14: Marvin Harrison juniors have said that they don't even see

723
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 14: Harrison as a rookie because of his work at because

724
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 14: of how mature he is, because of his skill set,

725
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 14: and I think that that's clear to see now. There's

726
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 14: really no better mentor than a Hall of Fame wide

727
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 14: receiver Dad. So I'm sure that, but it is nice

728
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 14: to see that connection in game two because that's what

729
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 14: we've heard from closed doors and what we're not seeing

730
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 14: at training camp and going on in the off season,

731
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 14: and to see that really come to be. I think

732
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 14: Week one in Buffalo was a couple of different factors.

733
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,720
Speaker 14: I think you could tell that Harrison was a little nervous,

734
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 14: The wind was a pretty big factor, the way that

735
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 14: it was swelling down there on the field, and just

736
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 14: the offense as a whole that second half they really

737
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 14: fell flat. I loved that last week ahead of the

738
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 14: Rams game, offensive corner Drew Pensing Kyler Murray himself did

739
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 14: not shy away from the fact that, yeah, of course

740
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 14: we want to get Marvin Harrison Junior more involved than

741
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 14: we did. That's that's not a secret, and so I

742
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 14: liked that they were able to do that. I think

743
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,240
Speaker 14: that you saw a little different in how the defense

744
00:34:55,480 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 14: was prioritizing Harrison in la versus all the that Buffalo

745
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 14: was giving him a week one, and I love the

746
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 14: fact that the Cardinals were able to take advantage of it.

747
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 14: Not in a way where Murray was forcing the ball

748
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 14: to Harrison, but you really did get a glimpse of

749
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 14: what that duo can look like.

750
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,240
Speaker 2: Now, they're going to have a tough matchup tomorrow against

751
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 2: the Lions, but Cards are trending up. So what are

752
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 2: you expecting from Kyler against Detroit and a really tough

753
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 2: powerhouse super Bowl favorite team.

754
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 14: This is going to be a really good head to head.

755
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 14: I think it's going to be violent. I think you're

756
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 14: going to see a lot of passion now with these

757
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 14: two teams of Detroit might be one of the more

758
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 14: balanced teams, and I think offense especially, So it's going

759
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 14: to be a challenge for the Cardinals defense. But when

760
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 14: you're looking at Detroit's defense, I mean, this is a

761
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 14: defense that's top five through two weeks and Zach Pruttors

762
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 14: quarterback kids and Aid Hutchinson has gone against backup right

763
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 14: tackles first two weeks and he's going to do that

764
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 14: against the Cardinals this week. Starter Jonah Williams went out

765
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 14: leaves well with a knee injury. So Kelvin Beachum, longtime

766
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 14: veteran thirteen years, stepped up last week. Popped up on

767
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 14: the injury report Thursday with a hamstring and considering the

768
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 14: Cardinals elevated earlier this morning. Both Jackson Barton and Charlie

769
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,280
Speaker 14: Hex from the practice squad makes you wonder how available

770
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 14: Beach is going to be. So I think you're really

771
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 14: going to have to rely on some blocking health from

772
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 14: your tight end, which is not new for this Cardinals offense.

773
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 14: They've already got fourth most snaps with two tight ends

774
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 14: in the league. And I would expect them to continue

775
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 14: to rely on the run game, just to set the

776
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 14: pace and get the rhythm going and really let James

777
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 14: Connor out of the backfield and do what he does best.

778
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 14: And then that opens up really the rest of the

779
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 14: offense and not only the passing game, but play action

780
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 14: Murray to be able to use his legs. I think

781

900
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 4: While we are on the phone with Danny Surrek, they

00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 4: the sideline.

903
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 5: I was like, where's the flag. I'm very invested, guys.

904
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 5: The household, the mood in my household dependent on Ellison.

909
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,680

910
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 3: Thankfully the quarterbacks will both be there.

911
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,760
Speaker 4: So it's just I'm actually really upset that Matthew Stafford

912
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,439
Speaker 4: is going to be playing this game because he's playing

913
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 4: behind absolutely no line, literally nothing.

914
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 5: I'm so scared for him.

915
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: I know it's going to be interesting, it's going to

916
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 2: be interesting, but I'm excited.

00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 2: Where you drink caffeine in the morning and you're like, oh, okay,

940
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,720
Speaker 2: I'm ready for the energy. I'm gonna feel up and awake.

941
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 2: But instead it's like bam, here's some anxiety and.

942
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 3: You're like, why is this happening? What? Nothing is going right?

943
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 2: And I felt like that, like melting smiling face emoji.

944
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 2: Yeah finally bout.

945
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 5: I don't think my caffeine worked this morning. So okay,

946
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 5: we be both.

947
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 3: We both had an interesting day. Was it with the

948
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:52,760
Speaker 3: high tea they used always?

949
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,919
Speaker 4: That's what I had too, got two hundred milligrams of cafe.

950
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 4: That's what I took to I left the tea bag.

951
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 3: In here, same and it hurts me.

952
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 4: I've you have had bad experiences leaving the tea bag

953
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 4: in there. Do not leave the tea bag in there, Alex.

954
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 4: Use the direction, say to steep it for like six minutes. Okay,

955
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 4: I learned hard, so steep it.

956
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 3: Okay, take it out. I faked it.

957
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 5: I made it.

958
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 3: I'm back.

959
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 5: We're here.

960
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 3: Let's have a great hour or two. We have Dodgers

961
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 3: broadcaster Jose Mota joining us in thirty minutes.

962
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 2: Uh, but we're gonna start with our quarterback roundup because

963
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 2: I love doing these. We're two weeks in, we already

964
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 2: started the show with the worry meter. We saved a couple,

965
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 2: and I think we saved a couple couple of those

966
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 2: for here.

967
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 3: So let's start with who you were.

968
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 2: Just kind of crushing on in the last segment that's

969
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 2: Thursday Night.

970
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 5: Don't say that he looked good. That's all I'm saying.

971
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 5: He looked good.

972
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 3: They felt like he was back.

973
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 2: Two hundred and one passing yards, two touchdowns, one hundred

974
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: and eighteen point nine passer rating. They were also playing

975
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 2: the Patriots, but I think it.

976
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 5: Was a good.

977
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 4: Is not a bad unit under Gerard Mayo, like the

978
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,479
Speaker 4: Patriots defense. We were talking about going into that game

979
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 4: where this was going to be competitive, and it was,

980
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 4: and I mean Aaron Rodgers threw the ball thirty five times.

981
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 4: That's more kind of along the split that you expect

982
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:14,919
Speaker 4: to say.

983
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 3: Said after the game, he felt like he was himself again.

984
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 5: He looks like himself again.

985
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 3: That oh like, he felt confident.

986
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 4: It's so funny too, and we were using this kind

987
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,959
Speaker 4: of analogy when there was like the Justin Jefferson George

988
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 4: Pickens thing last week where people were like, oh, well

989
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,359
Speaker 4: they they defended George Pickens in this way, like, well,

990
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 4: how do you think that the Niners are going to

991
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 4: do this to you? Justin He's like, with respect to

992
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 4: George Pickens, I'm not George Pickens. This was absolutely like

993
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 4: you think a Chrysler three hundred looks like a like

994
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 4: a phantom until a phantom pulls up. That was Aaron

995
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 4: Rodgers last night or whatever Thursday night. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers

996
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 4: was like the Rolls Royce Phantom of quarterback play. And

997
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 4: I was like, and we've been without it for so

998
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 4: long because even his last year in Green.

999
00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 3: Bay, it just wasn't the same.

1000
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 4: He had a broken them all of that season, and

1001
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 4: everybody has overlooked that injury because Aaron himself downplayed it. Yeah,

1002
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 4: but I'm like, just because Aaron's downplaying it does not

1003
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 4: mean that did not affect him. We have not seen

1004
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 4: this Aaron Rodgers since his last MVP season, And I

1005
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,799
Speaker 4: am looking at this man like, oh my god, this

1006
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 4: is why we put up with you.

1007
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, because you're so good at.

1008
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 4: Breaking football and like when just have the confidence in

1009
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,479
Speaker 4: him throwing the football down the field, knowing exactly where

1010
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 4: to put it, diagnosing what the defenses are trying to do.

1011
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 5: Against him.

1012
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 4: You saw all of that, and like then you realize

1013
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 4: when you're watching these other quarterbacks, say for like Patrick

1014
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 4: Mahomes yeah and Josh Allen, maybe you're holding your breath

1015
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 4: almost when they're making these decisions and you're not quite

1016
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 4: convinced that they're making the right decisions, Whereas when you're

1017
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 4: watching Aaron Rodgers, you're like, this is exactly how the

1018
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 4: game is supposed to be played. It is so cool

1019
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 4: to see you on Thursday.

1020
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 2: Finally, it felt like an Aaron Rodgers that could lead

1021
00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 2: this Jets team to the postseason, breaking the thirteen year

1022
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 2: postseason drought for the Jets, which is the longest in

1023
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 2: the NFL for the longest and all four major sport

1024
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 2: leagues in the US. But they're also getting a nice

1025
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 2: little path set up for them with two of going

1026
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,399
Speaker 2: down in Miami. He's out to at least Week eight

1027
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 2: as early as he can come back. So it really

1028
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 2: gives the Jets kind of that Jets Bills competition for

1029
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 2: who can take who can take the division?

1030
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,919
Speaker 4: We were I was right not to be concerned about

1031
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 4: the Bills. The Bills are just fine.

1032
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, They're gonna be just fine. I mean it was.

1033
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 3: It was very impressive. It felt like he's back, baby.

1034
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,840
Speaker 2: But there was another big takeaway from that game on Thursday,

1035
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 2: and it was the Rogers and Robert Sala push on

1036
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 2: the sideline.

1037
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 3: So like, was the push a big deal? Was it nothing?

1038
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 2: I don't think it was a huge deal, But I

1039
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 2: don't think it was nothing like it just we've heard

1040
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 2: that there's been tension between these two.

1041
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,720
Speaker 3: All off season, all off season obviously.

1042
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:05,280
Speaker 2: Solid calling out Rogers for missing many camp stories, getting

1043
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,760
Speaker 2: Leagud he hasn't really had his back.

1044
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 4: I just the fact that they both laughed about it

1045
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 4: afterwards makes me think this isn't a big deal to

1046
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 4: worry about.

1047
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 3: I think it was something, It was something in that moment.

1048
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 4: But the fact that both of them are covering for

1049
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 4: each other, that's more than That's more than Sala was

1050
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 4: doing in medicamp.

1051
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 3: It's a step forward right the right.

1052
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 4: So I don't think, and make no mistake, it's because

1053
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 4: they won that game. Had they not won that game,

1054
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,240
Speaker 4: that would have that would have turned into something much bigger.

1055
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,800
Speaker 3: It would have been like the end of season, literally

1056
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 3: like that.

1057
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,399
Speaker 4: The the fact that they both covered for each other,

1058
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 4: to me tells me like all right, if this is fine.

1059
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 3: They're mending.

1060
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't even They're just they know

1061
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 4: how to play with or like be around each other

1062
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 4: now dealing. They know how to deal with each other.

1063
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:51,760
Speaker 3: You're just dealing.

1064
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 4: I mean at this point, like they're the same age basically,

1065
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,320
Speaker 4: and like Rogers has had more successful league.

1066
00:48:58,440 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 3: What are the same age?

1067
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, solo is of Rodgers is forty Salad.

1068
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,879
Speaker 3: Is forty one, forty two, like.

1069
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 5: Uh forty five years. So yeah, I like they're.

1070
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's same, same, same, It's close.

1071
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:10,840
Speaker 5: I mean it's close.

1072
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 4: It's close, and like to the point where like Rogers

1073
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 4: is also like I've had more success in this league

1074
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 4: than you have.

1075
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 5: So what are you going to tell me?

1076
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 3: You can't? Right, you can't. There's a handful of guys.

1077
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe two right now, Mahonie and Aaron Rodgers. But

1078
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 2: like Mahoonie would never do that because Andy Reid is

1079
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 2: like the best of the best two and they've had

1080
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 2: the success together.

1081
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Andy Reid is like by far and away

1082
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 5: his like elder Yes.

1083
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:36,240
Speaker 3: Yes, true.

1084
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,279
Speaker 2: Okay, well let's go to the opposite end of the

1085
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 2: spectrum here, because it's been a rough start for rookie quarterbacks.

1086
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,640
Speaker 2: All eyes though, have been on Caleb Williams, who has

1087
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:49,320
Speaker 2: yet to throw a touchdown pass yet got hit fifteen times,

1088
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 2: including seventeen sacks. I mean, the Bear's oline needs to

1089
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:54,240
Speaker 2: step up and help this man. He has been sacked

1090
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 2: nine times, tied with Raiders Gardner.

1091
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 3: Minshew for the most in the league.

1092
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 4: Like Bear's oh, the miscommunications along the offensive line are

1093
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 4: the most concerning part of the Bears right now because

1094
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,200
Speaker 4: of the fact that this was the unit that was

1095
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 4: supposed to have the most continuity on offense.

1096
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 3: Mm hm and.

1097
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 5: I get it.

1098
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 4: This scheme, especially this run scheme under Shane Waldron, requires

1099
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 4: a like so much communication between offensive linemen because they're

1100
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 4: not working. They're all working together, which is a good

1101
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 4: thing given that it doesn't leave any of these guys

1102
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:28,319
Speaker 4: on an island. But it also means that you have

1103
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 4: to understand not only what you're doing, what the guys

1104
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 4: next to you are doing, but what the entire line

1105
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 4: is doing. Because you saw it in that game against

1106
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:39,839
Speaker 4: the Texans, where like half the line is like sliding,

1107
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,280
Speaker 4: like this protection clearly was changed, so half the guys

1108
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 4: got the memo, half of them didn't, and you had

1109
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,600
Speaker 4: guys that kind of like got out into the second

1110
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 4: level with like nobody to block, and you're just like,

1111
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 4: how does that happen? Guys are coming free. They didn't

1112
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 4: have a cohesive plan against third down exotic fronts, which

1113
00:50:58,120 --> 00:50:59,359
Speaker 4: Tamaiko Ryans is going to bring.

1114
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 5: A ton of. I could not, for the life.

1115
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 4: Of me understand why there were so many miscommunications along

1116
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 4: the offensive line.

1117
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:11,279
Speaker 5: They also put a lot of those protection calls on

1118
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:14,720
Speaker 5: Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams was getting to the line having

1119
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,400
Speaker 5: to be the one to say to slide the protections

1120
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,360
Speaker 5: to diagnose what he's seeing, which I don't think is

1121
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,320
Speaker 5: fair to put on him when this is his second

1122
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,759
Speaker 5: game in the NFL. NFL defenses are so much more

1123
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,240
Speaker 5: sophisticated than anything that Caleb Williams has seen in college.

1124
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,280
Speaker 5: The college game, while it may look.

1125
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,200
Speaker 4: To the you know, casual eye as being a very

1126
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 4: similar game, it is not. And the fact that they're

1127
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 4: they're not relying on where you're supposed to have the experience,

1128
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:45,279
Speaker 4: which is along the offensive line. They're not running, They're

1129
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 4: not leaning on the run game. They cannot they have

1130
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 4: not been able to get that going. I don't even care.

1131
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 4: If it's like handoffs, there are more ways to run

1132
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 4: the ball than just handing it off. You can get

1133
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 4: get DeAndre Swift out into space. He is not the

1134
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 4: bowling ball type of back. He is the one that

1135
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,839
Speaker 4: you need to get into and he can go from there.

1136
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,799
Speaker 4: I don't understand the plan quite yet, But at the

1137
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,240
Speaker 4: same time, I didn't think I was going to understand.

1138
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 4: I didn't think this was going to look good. I

1139
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 4: didn't think I knew that Caleb Williams was going to

1140
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 4: There was going to be some adjustment here.

1141
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:14,640
Speaker 3: I will give it to you.

1142
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 2: I think everyone else thought the Bears were going to

1143
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 2: be a lot better out of the gates, but you

1144
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:24,400
Speaker 2: were tempering expectations strong from day one, and I think

1145
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 2: it's going to be a bigger learning curve for Caleb

1146
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 2: than most expected. What got me was kind of like

1147
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 2: how defeated he sounded after the game, So like, how does.

1148
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 3: This get better for Caleb?

1149
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 2: Are these just normal growing pains or are there actual

1150
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 2: problems in his development?

1151
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not going to say that I expected

1152
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 4: it to necessarily look this bad. Yeah, But at the

1153
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 4: same time, like I kept talking about and the reason

1154
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 4: why I was trying to temper expectations is because there

1155
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 4: is so much new on this offense. There is a

1156
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,799
Speaker 4: new offensive coordinator and Shane Waldron. Caleb Williams is a

1157
00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 4: new quarterback to the entire league. He has new weapons

1158
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 4: in Chicago in Keenan Allen. Roma Dunze is a rookie.

1159
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 4: You've also been without Keenan Allen. Now this is gonna

1160
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 4: be the second week without Keenan Allen on the field. Again,

1161
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 4: the run game has not been established. You have not

1162
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 4: been able to do that, like to sustain drives in

1163
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 4: that way. And you also saw Kayleb Williams trying to

1164
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 4: figure out in real time what he can and can't

1165
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 4: get away with. There were so many scramble drills in

1166
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 4: that game against the Texans that ended in negative plays,

1167
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,839
Speaker 4: as in a sack or an interception that he would

1168
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 4: have absolutely gotten away.

1169
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 5: With in college.

1170
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,760
Speaker 3: Oh, definitely, But it's a different game. It's a different,

1171
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:32,439
Speaker 3: different game.

1172
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 5: You need to give him the grace to figure that out.

1173
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: Now.

1174
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 4: If he continues to try and do those things into

1175
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 4: the fourth, fifth, sixth week of the season, then I

1176
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,800
Speaker 4: will start getting concerned. But as we've seen, Kayla Williams

1177
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:48,320
Speaker 4: has started to learn incrementally, very very very small steps,

1178
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,759
Speaker 4: has started to learn what he can and get away with.

1179
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:53,320
Speaker 4: So I really do think that this is more normal

1180
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,680
Speaker 4: than it isn't. Yeah, we need to get flush the

1181
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 4: image and like kind of the totality of c J.

1182
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,839
Speaker 4: Strous rookie, see an out of our memory, because first

1183
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 4: of all, it wasn't all sunshine rainbows for CJ. Stroud

1184
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 4: last season. He took eleven sacks in the first two

1185
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 4: games of the season. The Texans loves both of those

1186
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 4: first two games.

1187
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 5: Of the season.

1188
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 4: This is not something that you can compare either, because

1189
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, c J. Stroud is

1190
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:19,720
Speaker 4: still the exception, not the rule. It takes quarterbacks time

1191
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 4: to develop in this league.

1192
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,399
Speaker 2: What I did like is seeing CJ. Stroud go over

1193
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,400
Speaker 2: and talk to Kayleb Williams.

1194
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 3: After the game. I like it. He said.

1195
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 2: He said, I had some of the best advice given

1196
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 2: to me last year, and I you know, I wasn't

1197
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,319
Speaker 2: trying to treat him like I was trying to be

1198
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 2: like little bro or nothing. But he said he knows

1199
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 2: that too, and he has a ton of respect for him.

1200
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 2: He just told him that he has respect for him,

1201
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 2: and I think it's so important to like have have

1202
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 2: that connection with someone, especially like in every industry when

1203
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:47,839
Speaker 2: you have someone who's like maybe a year or two

1204
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 2: ahead of you, Like, Hey, don't worry, I've been there,

1205
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 2: You're gonna be okay, You're talented, you got this. Like

1206
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 2: just knowing that and feeling that and seeing that, I

1207
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 2: think is so important and.

1208
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 3: It's a huge sunt of respect. It really is. I

1209
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 3: don't he did not take it as a like, uh no.

1210
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 5: I think c J.

1211
00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 4: Stroud meant it with the best of intentions. But I

1212
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 4: also understand where KYLEB Williams is kind of coming from

1213
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 4: where he I think a lot of people were unhappy

1214
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 4: with his reaction and thought that that was kind of

1215
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 4: like whatever of him. But I'm also like, you have

1216
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 4: to understand that Kayleb Williams, in his mind and with

1217
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:21,360
Speaker 4: his belief in himself, c J. Stroud is the competition.

1218
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1219
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:22,360
Speaker 9: C J.

1220
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,480
Speaker 4: Stroud is the guy that like he doesn't want to

1221
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:26,800
Speaker 4: be compared to. He's the one that he wants to surpass.

1222
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 4: Like It's one thing if Aaron Rodgers were to web

1223
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:31,400
Speaker 4: said that, I think to Kayleb Williams, because Kaya Williams

1224
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,399
Speaker 4: has looked up to Aaron Rodgers' entire life. I think

1225
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 4: it's different when it's the guy ahead of you that

1226
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 4: you know you're going to be going up against when

1227
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 4: it comes to the quarterback rewards and all that other stuff,

1228
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 4: like he he is part of the same generation of

1229
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 4: quarterback as Caleb Williams is, and so I think that

1230
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 4: there's I understand, I'm yeah, I understand both sides. I

1231
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:51,839
Speaker 4: understand that c J. Stroud was trying to be nice

1232
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 4: and trying to show respect, and I applaud him for

1233
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 4: that because I think CJ is a wonderful person. I

1234
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 4: also understand Kayleb Williams being like, appreciate it, bro, but

1235
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 4: I don't need that. You're my competition, and like, I

1236
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,320
Speaker 4: get it, I get it. He's he's like he's a competitor.

1237
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 2: Also interesting hearing Justin Fields kind of chime in too,

1238
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 2: former Bears quarterback saying he'll get he'll get most of

1239
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:17,359
Speaker 2: the blame, but he'll be fine. It's not Yeah, it's

1240
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,359
Speaker 2: not him, but he's going to get most of the blame.

1241
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:21,520
Speaker 5: And just playing quarterback in the NFL.

1242
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it does.

1243
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:23,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, it does.

1244
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:25,719
Speaker 4: And I mean I think that a lot of people

1245
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 4: are quick to also blame the offensive coordinator and the

1246
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 4: coaching in Chicago, and.

1247
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:32,399
Speaker 3: It's going to be a lot of this. There's gonna

1248
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 3: be a lot of point like not me, you his crazy.

1249
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 4: Part of all of this is is that Maddie Berflus

1250
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 4: is going to get the blame in this. And I

1251
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:41,920
Speaker 4: think a lot of it is Maddie Rufus's own doing,

1252
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 4: because he showed on hard Knocks that he goes into

1253
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 4: the quarterback meetings where that's not typical of a defensive

1254
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,840
Speaker 4: head coach. Because I've asked around defensive head coaches in

1255
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:51,880
Speaker 4: the league currently and they're like, I don't spend any

1256
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:55,520
Speaker 4: time in the quarterback room. But also, Matdieberflus's defense is

1257
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 4: playing out of its mind, like this could very well

1258
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 4: be the best defense in the league. It's not hyperbole

1259
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 4: to say that, especially in the second half with the

1260
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:07,040
Speaker 4: adjustments that Maddieberfluce is making at halftime. They are allowing

1261
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 4: just a forty six point zero passer rating in the

1262
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 4: second half of games through these two games, ranked second

1263
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 4: in the league. They have not allowed a second half touchdown.

1264
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 4: It's insane what this defense is doing. They won that

1265
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 4: game for them against the Titans at home.

1266
00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they kept.

1267
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 4: Them in a game that they had no business being

1268
00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:29,800
Speaker 4: in in Houston. I cannot even fathom, like how good

1269
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 4: this Bears defense is and we're overlooking it because Kayleb

1270
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 4: Williams is struggling.

1271
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,600
Speaker 3: Well, no, it's O line. The Bears O line needs

1272
00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 3: to step up and help.

1273
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 4: Calling just needs to be better. There's there's some decisions

1274
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 4: that need to be made that are better than by Kayla,

1275
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 4: but again that's gonna come.

1276
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 2: And also I think it's again there was such high expectations,

1277
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 2: and when people go in with such high expectations, you're disappointed.

1278
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 3: Exact if you.

1279
00:57:56,360 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 2: Go in don't expect much and then you win, you're like, Okay,

1280
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 2: that was cool that, Like I didn't think we're going

1281
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 2: to this is a win.

1282
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,360
Speaker 4: Exactly why I was trying to temper expectations. I was

1283
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 4: trying to protect these players, this team from these lofty expectations.

1284
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 5: Immediately.

1285
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:15,959
Speaker 4: I absolutely have expectations for this team when it comes

1286
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 4: to twenty twenty five. Especially, I did not expect this

1287
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 4: to go well right away, and I wanted to protect

1288
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 4: these guys from having these expectations against them and then

1289
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:25,920
Speaker 4: having the city turn on them you were alone on

1290
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:29,360
Speaker 4: that eye I was you were still alone on that island.

1291
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 2: All like, my comments are filling up with can you

1292
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 2: just have her be nicer about the Bears.

1293
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 3: I'm like, dude, she's one of you.

1294
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 7: And also I'm being nice.

1295
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:43,800
Speaker 4: I am trying to temper expectations for the benefit of

1296
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:45,040
Speaker 4: the team itself.

1297
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 5: I've been there.

1298
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,440
Speaker 4: I don't want these guys to get the blame for

1299
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 4: something that is just going to take time. I can't win, though, Alex,

1300
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 4: because my comments are also filled with like now, I'm like,

1301
00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 4: you know, writing things about how like these are the

1302
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 4: things I saw that from Caleb that I'm encouraged with,

1303
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 4: and these are things that I expect to get better.

1304
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 4: Everyone's like, oh, excuse is O to Bears fans, I'm like,

1305
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 4: first of all, yeah, no, yeah, Like, I am just

1306
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 4: trying to give you a very objective, realistic point of

1307
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,720
Speaker 4: view for what is happening in Chicago right now, because

1308
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,360
Speaker 4: none of y'all apparently.

1309
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 5: Have to be realistic about this.

1310
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears fans, deep breath, seriously, deep breath.

1311
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 3: We're gonna taking a quick break here, but when we

1312

Speaker 3: come back.

1313
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 2: How much player access is too much access? You're listening

Speaker 4: right direction.

1331
01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 2: Speaking of podcasts, yeah, how much access is too much?

1332
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:24,959
Speaker 3: Access? First Players and their podcast. I'm here for it now.

1333
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of I think everybody should utilize

1334
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 2: their platform absolutely right. However, if you don't have proper

1335
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,000
Speaker 2: media training or have someone to help you decide, like

1336
01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 2: pr a topic, maybe you shouldn't discuss on a podcast

1337
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 2: or share some team secrets.

1338
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:45,720
Speaker 3: This is where I think it gets a little dicey.

1339
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:47,919
Speaker 2: We've had a couple of situations this week that made

1340
01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 2: me really they made the new cycles the main like

1341
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 2: stream media news cycles because of these players podcasts. And

1342
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 2: we actually saw the miked up moment Sunday Night Football

1343
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 2: with CJ. Stroud where he told Jalen Johnson on the Bears, hey,

1344
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 2: stop telling your secrets on the Richard Sherman podcast. You

1345
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:08,600
Speaker 2: ain't slip brother, you ain't getting me. And this is

1346
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 2: like things I think about all the time when you

1347
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 2: hear players really like just give everything. And again, whoever

1348
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 2: has the podcast is doing a good job getting these

1349
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 2: like little snidbits out of these players. But you have

1350
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 2: to remember other teams are going to listen to this.

1351
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 2: Your opponents, if they know that you're on something, are

1352
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 2: going to listen to this. And if you give away secrets,

1353
01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 2: so what are you doing.

1354
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 4: I am not going to discourage anybody from divulging anything

1355
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:37,760
Speaker 4: because I want to know everything.

1356
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,520
Speaker 3: Well, it's great for us, this is great for us.

1357
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 4: So but my I think the bigger issue is that

1358
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 4: these player led podcasts. I love the people using their platforms,

1359
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:54,400
Speaker 4: But we as consumers, we as fans have to have

1360
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 4: more listening comprehension and understand that we're only getting one

1361
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 4: side of the story. Yeah, that is I think the

1362
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 4: bigger kind of problem with more of the player led

1363
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 4: stuff is that you have to understand this is a

1364
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 4: one sided version of this information. A journalist's role in

1365
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 4: this current landscape is to get to ask tough questions

1366
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 4: to give you both sides of the story, to make

1367
01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 4: sure that they are getting to what the truth is

1368
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 4: versus what players what the truth is to the players,

1369
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 4: because that is going to be through one singular lens.

1370
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 4: That is why I think there is still there's more

1371
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 4: of a need, quite honestly than ever for unbiased and

1372
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 4: very objective journalists to analyze certain things to give you

1373
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 4: both sides to try and get to the truth of

1374
01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:49,160
Speaker 4: the matter. It's not always I get it. It's it

1375
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 4: doesn't always work that people are biased to journalists are

1376
01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:56,320
Speaker 4: biased to. But we have to stop kind of reacting,

1377
01:02:57,040 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 4: just like having these knee jerk reactions to things that

1378
01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 4: players are saying all the time because that is coming

1379
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:05,840
Speaker 4: from their personal lens. Yeah, it does not necessary, especially

1380
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 4: when there are more people involved in things and things

1381
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 4: like that, you are not necessarily getting the whole story.

1382
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 3: Now.

1383
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 2: Again, this is great for us, right, we get good

1384
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:16,320
Speaker 2: media stories out of it. But I have to imagine

1385
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 2: these teams don't want their players sharing their secrets calling

1386
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 2: out teammates. We've heard Micah Parsons do this on his podcast.

1387
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 2: I know there have been issues within the locker room

1388
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 2: in the past with Micah and this podcast and his teammates,

1389
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 2: so there needs to be some sort of a balance. Again,

1390
01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 2: It's great for us the sports talkers because it gives

1391
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 2: us like great content to go over, but just really interesting,

1392
01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 2: especially when you got to see it and you heard

1393
01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 2: one of the top guys in c J. Stroud call out,

1394
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 2: Like I heard what you said.

1395
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 4: You know what podcast? Now I get mehit me do it.

1396
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 4: It makes me like c J. Stroud even more because

1397
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 4: he was great, straight up sicko. Yeah, he is like

1398
01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 4: Luke Keigley levels of prepared for this kind of stuff.

1399
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,800
Speaker 5: And that is what makes you good at this game though,

1400
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:02,680
Speaker 5: That is what makes.

1401
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,080
Speaker 3: You your research. Do your research you're playing it.

1402
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 2: Watch the table that they were on a podcast, Go

Speaker 5: Make of you guys know these guys.

1405
01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 4: Tendency is like, prepare, prepare, prepare, because that is what

1406
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 4: is going to set you apart. And that is why

1407
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 4: I am so confident in CJ. Stroud ascending into a

1408
01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 4: very elite quarterback because he's a already in sicko and I.

1409
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,240
Speaker 3: Adore it and Siko's a good thing.

1410
01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:27,720
Speaker 5: You guys, just let me complimenting preenthesy is compliment good.

1411
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 2: Sick Okay, Now let's check it over Kevin Wirt and see

1412
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:30,040
Speaker 2: what's trending.

1413
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:34,040
Speaker 12: Yeah, many of the big games have reached halftime, if

1414
01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 12: not into the second half. We're keeping an eye on

1415
01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 12: that big one featuring USC and Michigan. The eleventh ranked

1416
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 12: Trojans currently trailing the eighteenth ranked Wolverines fourteen to three.

1417
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 12: That game has reached half time down in Baton Ruge,

1418
01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 12: the Bruins have tied it up at seventeen. They've reached

1419
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 12: the halftime break as number sixteen LSU and UCLA all

1420
01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 12: knotted up, and number ten Penn Skate in action right

1421
01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 12: now against Kent State and this one's going as expected

1422
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 12: there as the two to o Nickney Lyons.

1423
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 7: On their way to making it.

1424
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,840
Speaker 12: Three and oh they're in the third quarter and already

1425
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 12: leading this one twenty eight to nothing. They've resumed that

1426
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 12: game between West Virginia and Kansas. The Jayhawks were leading

1427
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:18,480
Speaker 12: that one before the weather delay kicked in, and now

1428
01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:19,880
Speaker 12: it's the Mountaineers in front.

1429
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:21,640
Speaker 7: Thirty two twenty eight twenty.

1430
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:26,720
Speaker 12: Six seconds ago out in Morgantown. Number seventeen Notre Dame

1431
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 12: in Miami of Ohio was a slow start for the Irish,

1432
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 12: kind of maybe bringing back some bad flashbacks for Irish

1433
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 12: fans from a couple of weeks ago when they lost

1434
01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 12: in Northern Illinois. But this Mac team the Irish are

1435
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:41,360
Speaker 12: seemingly able to handle, as they are leading at fourteen

1436
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:45,919
Speaker 12: to three with about thirteen minutes ago in the third quarter.

1437
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 12: Number nineteen Louisville on top of Georgia Tech seventeen fourteen.

1438
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:52,080
Speaker 12: They've got fourteen minutes ago in the third twenty third

1439
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:56,439
Speaker 12: ranked Northern Illinois fourteen three lead against Buffalo. They've got

1440
01:05:56,440 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 12: thirteen minutes ago in the third quarter. Some other results

1441
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:05,560
Speaker 12: from earlier today Ohio State winners again really was nothing unexpected,

1442
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:08,760
Speaker 12: as the third ranked Buck guys rollover Marshall forty nine

1443
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:12,320
Speaker 12: to fourteen. Number twenty Iowa State fifty two to seven

1444
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 12: winners against Arkansas State number twenty one. Clemson flows out

1445
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 12: NC State fifty nine to thirty five, Florida and Mississippi State.

1446
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 12: The Gators do get the win forty five to twenty

1447
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 12: eight and James Madison, Man, if you like offense, the

1448
01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:30,960
Speaker 12: game in Chapa Hill is quite a treat for you,

1449
01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 12: as James Madison in North Carolina a shootout seventy to fifty.

1450
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 12: The Duke's win it, but that game was nowhere near

1451
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:39,880
Speaker 12: that close, as James Madison had a fifty three to

1452
01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:45,200
Speaker 12: twenty one lead at halftime. NFL News we got some

1453
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 12: injury updates. George Kittle has been downgraded to out for

1454
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,080
Speaker 12: the forty nine ers for their Sunday matchup against the

1455
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 12: La Ramsers, adding to their list of injuries. Taysom Hill

1456
01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 12: downgraded to doubtful for a Sunday's game again against the

1457
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:04,600
Speaker 12: Philadelphia Eagles. He's dealing with a chest injury. The Jaguars

1458
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 12: ruling out tight end Evan Ingram for Monday's game. The

1459
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:12,200
Speaker 12: Texans running back Joe Mixon he has been dougraded to how.

1460
01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:15,720
Speaker 12: He's not even traveling with Houston as they will face

1461
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:20,160
Speaker 12: the Vikings this week. T Higgins, though, is going to

1462
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 12: be on the field. He said he was going to play.

1463
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 12: Zach Taylor said he was going to play. Now he

1464
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:30,360
Speaker 12: is officially off of the injury report. Justin Herbert optimistic

1465
01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:35,360
Speaker 12: that he will be starting Sunday at Pittsburgh despite a

1466
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 12: high ankle spraying. He is officially listed as questionable. According

1467
01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:42,320
Speaker 12: to Ian Rappaport, he is going to test out that

1468
01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 12: ankle before the game to see how good he is

1469
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,480
Speaker 12: able to go. And in Major League Baseball, this is

1470
01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 12: just an interesting story of losing focus and not being

1471
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 12: focused on the team.

1472
01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:55,880
Speaker 7: As C. J. Abrams, the All Star shorts up for

1473
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 7: the Nationals.

1474
01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 12: Demoted to the minor leagues because he stayed out at

1475
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 12: a casino late the night before a day game at

1476
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:04,720
Speaker 12: Wrigley Field in Chicago. So that's certainly going to be

1477
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 12: a tough lesson for the shortstop.

1478
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 7: Thanks you, guys, see.

1479
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 2: Thank you Kevin. You're listening to fock Football Saturday. I'm

1489
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,879
Speaker 2: we all knew he was going to do something special

1490
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 2: this season, solely focusing on hitting. But what did reaching

1491
01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:46,760
Speaker 2: that milestone mean to him?

1492
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:47,960
Speaker 6: Hey?

1493
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,200
Speaker 8: Meant a lot, Alex. I think you know very well

1494
01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:52,439
Speaker 8: the show. He is very methodical and show he is

1495
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 8: very driven to do things that perhaps see can challenge

1496
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,679
Speaker 8: himself with. I don't think he thinks so much about like, hey,

1497
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,760
Speaker 8: nobody's done this before. Let me tre to know more like,

1498
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:03,920
Speaker 8: hey can I do it? Can I do this? You

1499
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,400
Speaker 8: know in the meantime, not get caught so much in

1500
01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:10,000
Speaker 8: his moment or his stats or achievement, but also think

1501
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 8: how can this? Then I'm going to try to do

1502
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 8: help the team. You and I saw with the Angels. Hey,

1503
01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:16,800
Speaker 8: if I'm going to pitch, they need five innings from me,

1504
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:18,640
Speaker 8: they need seven innings from me. I'm going to go

1505
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 8: out to and turn do the best. Because the book

1506
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 8: maybe had a long night the night before and He's

1507
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:24,840
Speaker 8: always so team focused, and I think that's why I'm

1508
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,479
Speaker 8: telling you the Lord has blessed him put the ability

1509
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:30,519
Speaker 8: to do great things more than anything. Yeah, he's in

1510
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:33,519
Speaker 8: the limelight, he gets those the spotlight, but because he

1511
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 8: really cares so much about his team, which is how

1512
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,840
Speaker 8: they think culturally, and where he came from back.

1513
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,240
Speaker 4: In Japan, do you think that he at all really

1514
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:48,000
Speaker 4: like grasps the fact that he is changing baseball. I mean,

1515
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:51,640
Speaker 4: he is absolutely pushing boundaries and pushing the limits on

1516
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 4: what we thought a baseball player was or could be,

1517
01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:58,400
Speaker 4: and he's surpassing all of our expectations in wildest dreams.

1518
01:09:58,600 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 4: Do you think do you get the sense that he

1519
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:03,400
Speaker 4: he has any kind of like an understanding of that.

1520
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 4: I mean, I just I don't know how you grasp

1521
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:08,360
Speaker 4: that as anyone, like I'm share the way this entire

1522
01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:09,200
Speaker 4: sport is played.

1523
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean that's a good point because perhaps now

1524
01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:15,400
Speaker 8: because he's caught up in you know, trying to perhaps

1525
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 8: help the dog just win the division now they're into

1526
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,599
Speaker 8: the playoffs, maybe it won't hit him until later. Comment.

1527
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 8: But you know what, once he realizes that. Okay, let

1528
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,040
Speaker 8: me get look back and say, Okay, one hundred and

1529
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 8: twenty some RBIs over one hundred and twenty runs scored

1530
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,479
Speaker 8: fifty two one months today, and then all these little

1531
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 8: things to keep adding up from ops for this luggie

1532
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:38,120
Speaker 8: fifty I mean he could be fifty five to fifty five.

1533
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 8: Who knows he could be.

1534
01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:43,240
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna get fifty five fifty five.

1535
01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:46,600
Speaker 8: It's crazy. I mean, you think about this, he's a

1536
01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:53,280
Speaker 8: fifty two. The last three games are in Colorado. That's

1537
01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 8: what I'm saying. What if he leaves his homestand say

1538
01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:58,760
Speaker 8: with you know, three more home runs of fifty five

1539
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:02,360
Speaker 8: and he's like, you know what, we secure the division,

1540
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 8: I'm going to air it out and just see where

1541
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,679
Speaker 8: it goes. It could happen. It could happen. I mean,

1542
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:08,400
Speaker 8: obviously we don't want them to do anything that's going

1543
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:10,439
Speaker 8: to get im hurt. But it's like I always say,

1544
01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 8: without Albert Poolholes in my trout, never doubt these guys

1545
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:19,360
Speaker 8: because the mentality and their drive and their talent. He

1546
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 8: just can never know what else that might have in mind.

1547
01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:23,400
Speaker 8: And we'll call what happens. I mean, let me give

1548
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,280
Speaker 8: you another example. On show Hill Tony to get to

1549
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 8: forty forty right, yeah, oh no, it wasn't just another

1550
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,880
Speaker 8: home run. It was to walk up brand slam. It's like,

1551
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:34,640
Speaker 8: I mean, come on.

1552
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:37,280
Speaker 2: But that's what Albert Pools.

1553
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,160
Speaker 3: Did for his was it? His five hundredth home run?

1554
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:40,120
Speaker 5: Was bad?

1555
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:41,800
Speaker 2: It was like a two home run game and it

1556
01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:44,599
Speaker 2: was a grand slam to get there At Angel Stadium?

1557
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:47,840
Speaker 2: Do you remember that the players always step up and

1558
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:51,679
Speaker 2: do like the most impressive, incredible run, goat style things.

1559
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 8: I mean, and think about Albert Albert now that you

1560
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:57,360
Speaker 8: bring that up. He played for the Dodgers. After you

1561
01:11:57,360 --> 01:11:59,040
Speaker 8: get let go by the end, Josie goes to a

1562
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 8: contending and team goes with the playoffs. Ye, and then

1563
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 8: as a visitor he comes to downia Ctitium and he

1564
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:11,280
Speaker 8: had seven hundred layer here against the Dutch. Yeah, I mean,

1565
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:13,480
Speaker 8: come on, these guys, I mean like the Joe Montana's

1566
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:15,439
Speaker 8: of the World of Tom Brady's. Like, you guys are

1567
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 8: another planet. Go out there and do whatever you do,

1568
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,040
Speaker 8: but you know what, let us enjoy the ride.

1569
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:21,360
Speaker 4: I think the most wild thing about this entire thing, though,

1570
01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 4: is obviously we've known that Soho Tani is just a

1571
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,880
Speaker 4: different player. Alex collsmc Unicorn all the time. Yep, this

1572
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:31,839
Speaker 4: was going to be his first trip to the postseason. Yeah,

1573
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:34,479
Speaker 4: that is the most incredible part of this entire story

1574
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:36,640
Speaker 4: to me. What does it mean to him now to

1575
01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:40,080
Speaker 4: be able to extend his season for the first time

1576
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:41,600
Speaker 4: in seven years.

1577
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:47,000
Speaker 8: I'll keep it very simple for you. When I saw show, Hey,

1578
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:50,600
Speaker 8: we got off the plane coming from Miami and I

1579
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:52,840
Speaker 8: said congratulations some of the doglo Simus and then we

1580
01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 8: talked a little bit on the time. The first thing

1581
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:59,320
Speaker 8: says is playoffs. The winks like, hey, we're in. It

1582
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:01,360
Speaker 8: was like, hold, thank you very much our fifty No, no,

1583
01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:03,400
Speaker 8: he was like, we're in. I mean, if you think

1584
01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:07,280
Speaker 8: about too. He's never played significant games in September. No,

1585
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,320
Speaker 8: And the closest he came was back in twenty twenty

1586
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,240
Speaker 8: on the shortened season when he really struggled. I mean

1587
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 8: it was ugly to the point where Joe Mann had

1588
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,720
Speaker 8: no choice but to not play him. Yeah, and in

1589
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 8: that case, then Deane was an issue. His hitting was

1590
01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:23,000
Speaker 8: an issue. But he's having a great time. On me,

1591
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:24,960
Speaker 8: it seems like he's not tired. I mean, you know,

1592
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 8: till we talk about here's my April swing, because it's

1593
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:30,120
Speaker 8: so fresh, right, and your may sling or your legs,

1594
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:32,840
Speaker 8: how they look in April compared to September. It seems

1595
01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,760
Speaker 8: like his legs are always in April, you know what

1596
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,840
Speaker 8: I mean, room is always an aprils Like there's a

1597
01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:38,800
Speaker 8: little bit more, you know, off of the dollar fans,

1598
01:13:38,840 --> 01:13:41,160
Speaker 8: for the fan base, for at teams. It's good to

1599
01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,400
Speaker 8: see that fresh is because as we know, October is

1600
01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 8: a different monster, which he will have than well by

1601
01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 8: and he'll need to bring his game to another level too.

1602
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:51,880
Speaker 2: I know, but Dodgers have been okay, They've been one

1603
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:54,919
Speaker 2: of the best regular season teams over the last decade,

1604
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,920
Speaker 2: but have struggled in October minus that twenty twenty season.

1605
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:01,920
Speaker 3: Can Otani kind of be that like offensive.

1606
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:05,280
Speaker 2: Spark that we haven't really seen with the Dodgers come

1607
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 2: the postseason he needs to.

1608
01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:09,760
Speaker 8: Be, And I think overall, Alex is going to come

1609
01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:12,000
Speaker 8: down to a couple of guys that also have not

1610
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,720
Speaker 8: performed the last couple of times. It's Ferdie Freeman and

1611
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 8: Mooki Betts, which is so weird, Max Munsey. They have

1612
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:20,600
Speaker 8: to go out there and do their jobs because it

1613
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:23,599
Speaker 8: can it can't fall. You're not gonna win if one

1614
01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:25,519
Speaker 8: guy gets three or four hits hit a couple of months.

1615
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 8: He need a collective unit to go out there and

1616
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 8: do what they do. Tells ca Hernandez is huge. I mean,

1617
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:35,200
Speaker 8: he's another gun under the radars. Great think, Oh my god,

1618
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:36,880
Speaker 8: how good and how how ploy is to have the

1619
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,320
Speaker 8: thirty home runs quiet as thirty home runs in baseball

1620
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:42,120
Speaker 8: right now? But for TONI is we know every eye

1621
01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 8: is going to be on him. Every TV al is

1622
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:47,120
Speaker 8: gonna want him on prime time. Yeah, he's going to

1623
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:50,759
Speaker 8: have to really really stay with his game, keep under control.

1624
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 8: Know that he may not be pitched to, and he's

1625
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 8: gonna get into trouble if he expands his own too much.

1626
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:57,479
Speaker 8: But as long as he stays within himself up the

1627
01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,759
Speaker 8: middle of the other way and react to anything in side,

1628
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 8: it should be a lot of fun with him hitting

1629
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 8: and running the basis.

1630
01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:04,360
Speaker 5: I love it.

1631
01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 3: I mean, Jose, I'm a homer.

1632
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,280
Speaker 2: I picked the Dodgers to beat the Yankees in the

1633
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:11,040
Speaker 2: World Series. I got so much hate for that at

1634
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,400
Speaker 2: the start of the season, but I'm feeling a little

1635
01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 2: better about it now. Thank you so much for joining

1669
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:38,519
Speaker 7: It was not good.

01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:39,599
Speaker 5: It was not good.

1671
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 3: It was not good.

1672
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:40,880
Speaker 5: Last week.

1673
01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:45,400
Speaker 13: Well, would you believe someone got either further or closer?

1674
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:48,839
Speaker 13: And I'll tell you what, Alex, you got a game ahead,

1675
01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 13: just one, because you guys were so on everything except

1676
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:56,920
Speaker 13: for one were correct or incorrect on both except for one.

1677
01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,839
Speaker 3: Was that Mammie and Burrow?

1678
01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:05,840
Speaker 5: It was home. I was wrong one. Alex. You are

1679
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:09,599
Speaker 5: seven and seven on the year, five and nine, Carmen.

1680
01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:14,679
Speaker 13: But will soon the NFL we'll see, all right, one,

1681
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:18,840
Speaker 13: we're going number one here. It's the Philadelphia Eagles are

1682
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 13: at Nolan's us the Saints and Derek Carr three point

1683
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:26,479
Speaker 13: favorites for the Saints right now, Alex, the leader in

1684
01:17:26,479 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 13: the clubhouse, will this one's.

1685
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 2: Tough, But because I think this is kind of a

1686
01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:33,519
Speaker 2: make or break game for the Eagles, SA one needs

1687
01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,960
Speaker 2: a little redemption after that drop. It's not gonna be easy,

1688
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:38,840
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna take the Eagles.

1689
01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:42,440
Speaker 4: I'm riding with the Saints. I want I'm rooting for chaos.

1690
01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:43,600
Speaker 4: I want chaos.

1691
01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 5: We got chaos.

1692
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 13: Well, you know what, I'm gonna throw some more chaos

1693
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:52,000
Speaker 13: your way right now, Carmen, because number two it's the

1694
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 13: Texans at the Minnesota Vikings. Texans are one and a

1695
01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 13: half going to thunderdogs.

1696
01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:01,360
Speaker 4: Patrick, you're gonna let me for the to Minnesota Vike

1697
01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 4: with them? Are you kidding? That defense against c J.

1698
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:05,839
Speaker 5: Stroud?

1699
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:09,519
Speaker 4: I can't read Brian Flores's defense. I know that most

1700
01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:12,559
Speaker 4: NFL teams can't do it either. He is the master

1701
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:16,679
Speaker 4: of disguising coverages and disguising blitz packages, and he is going.

1702
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:18,519
Speaker 5: To confuse the ever loving you know what out of

1703
01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:20,799
Speaker 5: c J. Stroud. And then I think that Sam Darnald

1704
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:21,960
Speaker 5: can get it done with the weapons.

1705
01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:24,919
Speaker 4: Although we got Justin Jefferson and Ordanais and battling some injuries,

1706
01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:26,680
Speaker 4: I'm still going with the Vikings.

1707
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Texans.

1708
01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:28,360
Speaker 13: C J.

1709
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,760
Speaker 3: Stroud all the way, baby locked in.

1710
01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:38,200
Speaker 2: We were a disagreeing moon, but wow, the opportunity here.

1711
01:18:38,360 --> 01:18:40,759
Speaker 13: Okay, I like this. Well let's see if you disagree

1712
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 13: on this one, we'll see Number three, the Ravens at

1713
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:49,160
Speaker 13: the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys are home, Ravens are funny enough.

1714
01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:51,080
Speaker 13: One point, yea favorite.

1715
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:53,640
Speaker 3: All right, this is another make or break game for

1716
01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:54,439
Speaker 3: both sides.

1717
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 2: I mean they're both Cowboys are trying to bounce back

1718
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 2: from an embarrassing loss of homes. But the Ravens need

1719
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 2: this a little more. When we talked about it off

1720
01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:09,599
Speaker 2: the top of the show, there haven't been very many

1721
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,200
Speaker 2: zero to three team to make it to the postseason

1722
01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 2: since nineteen ninety.

1723
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:14,559
Speaker 3: It's been four.

1724
01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:18,800
Speaker 2: So I'm going with the Ravens, Lamar Jackson. They need

1725
01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:20,360
Speaker 2: to get their mojo back, they need to get their

1726
01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:22,559
Speaker 2: vibe back. I think they're going to take this one

1727
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:23,200
Speaker 2: here in Dallas.

1728
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 4: I'm also going Ravens just because I think that they

1729
01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,479
Speaker 4: are finally going to find their mojo between Derek Henry

1730
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:32,479
Speaker 4: and Lamar Jackson, and Dallas has not been good against

1731
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:34,479
Speaker 4: the run this year. We saw what that would Aalvi

1732
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:37,200
Speaker 4: Kamara was able to do against them last week. I

1733
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:39,240
Speaker 4: don't have faith in the Dallas defense on the ground,

1734
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 4: so I think that that is an opportunity for the

1735
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:44,040
Speaker 4: Ravens to exploit.

1736
01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 5: I'm going Ravens, all right.

1737
01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:48,880
Speaker 13: Well, speaking of teams, needing Mojo. We had the forty

1738
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:51,759
Speaker 13: nine erst we had to pick this game.

1739
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 5: We do. Niners are six and a half point favorite.

1740
01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:56,719
Speaker 3: Shells of a team.

1741
01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:57,400
Speaker 5: I mean.

1742
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:02,120
Speaker 4: The Niners have have more like they have injuries, but

1743
01:20:02,120 --> 01:20:02,720
Speaker 4: they have more.

1744
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:03,519
Speaker 3: Uh.

1745
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,679
Speaker 4: But just because they have Rock Party and brand Ayuk,

1746
01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 4: I'm going Niners. I do not trust that offensive line

1747
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,439
Speaker 4: by the Rams. I'm really scared for Stafford. We're gonna see.

1748
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:14,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard.

1749
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:17,559
Speaker 2: Mcfavor Shanahan is always a great matchup, but since twenty nineteen,

1750
01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:19,760
Speaker 2: Rams have only beat the forty nine Ers twice, and

1751
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:21,400
Speaker 2: one of those was NFC Championship.

1752
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:23,040
Speaker 3: Came to send the Rams to the Super Bowl, which

1753
01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 3: they won.

1754
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:25,080
Speaker 2: I don't think they can get it done with the

1755
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 2: big pieces they're missing. I'm also going forty nine Ers,

1756
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:28,559
Speaker 2: and I'm going to be at this game tomorrow. If

1757
01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 2: you see me, say hi, let's get our last one

1758
01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 2: in the final.

1759
01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:32,000
Speaker 5: It's Cheefs.

1760
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:34,920
Speaker 13: That's a three point favorite at the Falcons.

1761
01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:36,120
Speaker 7: When are we fail in Cheefs?

1762
01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:39,400
Speaker 5: Jeeves also Amazon, Taylor just had a really.

1763
01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:43,679
Speaker 2: Good Yeah, Joy Taylor's nephew, may thank you for spending

1764
01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:44,960
Speaker 2: your Saturday afternoon with us.

1765
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,200
Speaker 3: We'll see you next week, same time, same place, baby
