Speaker 5: I just we just I just hang hung out with

11
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 5: a bunch of people because obviously I split my time

12
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 5: going back and forth to Chicago.

13
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:30,720

Speaker 3: That wasn't We're going to get to that a little bit.

16
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 5: That was the most entertaining game so good that I've covered. Like,

17
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 5: it's not the most entertaining game I can remember as

18
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 5: someone who grew up as part of that rivalry, but

19
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 5: that was the most entertaining rivalry game I've covered between

20
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 5: the Bears and the Packers because it just hasn't. It's

21
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 5: been so lopsided as of the last few years, which.

22
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: Is hopeful with the way the Bear season has gone.

Speaker 2: keep you update on all the college football action as

45
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 2: it goes down. But we're gonna start with what was

46
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 2: the most anticipated college football game today, and that was

47
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: number five Indiana at number two Ohio State. And you

48
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: know what, after watching that game, Karmie, I think you

49
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: can say Indiana was properly ranked at number five. They

50
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: faced a powerhouse team, the current favorite to win it all,

51
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: and Ohio State was Indiana's biggest test of the season,

52
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: and they were You cannot deny that Indiana was dominant

53
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: against their opponents up until today. But you have to

54
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: remember they had a schedule that was ranked one hundred

55
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 2: and sixth in strength, and they they looked good. They

56
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: got out to the early lead. I think after halftime

57
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: was when the tides really turned.

58
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 4: Right before they had the muff punt, that's kind of

59
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: when things started to go out the rails. I am.

60
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 5: I mean, I have a ton of Indiana friend or

61
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 5: friends that went to Indiana growing up in the Midwest.

62
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 5: It's a huge school. I wanted this for the program.

63
00:02:59,200 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 5: I wanted this for that.

64
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: I wanted this accomplishment though, just to even be here

65
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: and get here because they haven't had that.

66
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 4: I had the cover, So I'm like, I'm really sad.

67
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 2: I just kind of saying, you're not having the energy

68
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: I was expecting you to come.

69
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: No, But this is this.

70
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 5: Goes back to This goes back to why I was

71
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 5: hesitant to get on the Indiana bandwide hard.

72
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: You jumped on and you yeah, and I wrote, I

73
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: was like, all right, let's do it.

74
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 5: And I really did think that they had the opportunity,

75
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 5: Like I think if that game would have been at Indiana,

76
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 5: I think that that could have been different. But it's honestly,

77
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 5: what I really needed to see from Indiana was was

78
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 5: more of a fight and honestly to cover to keep

79
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 5: their playoff chances alive because it's it was so fragile.

80
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 5: That ranking was so fragile, and there were there's a

81
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 5: ton of discourse this week just coming out about because

82
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 5: the seating. This is the first week that the seating

83
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 5: kind of came out and how that varies from the rankings.

84
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 5: And then you start playing this game of like, well

85
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 5: we beat you, will you beat this person? Well we

86
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 5: meet this person, and this like Penn State being ranked

87
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 5: as high as they are, I think is rubbing a

88
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 5: lot of people the wrong way, justifiably so, because like

89
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 5: who have they beat?

90
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 4: But like they have history.

91
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 5: There's it's so funny to me because we're just kind

92
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 5: of reverting back to the FBS rankings back in the day,

93
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 5: where it wasn't just your record, It wasn't just strength

94
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 5: of schedule, it wasn't any of that. It was like

95
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 5: you had to take like all of this was taken

96
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 5: into account by the committee of do you have any

97
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 5: sort of legacy or stuff like that in the in

98
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 5: the postseason, how is your program fared?

99
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 4: What conference are you in?

100
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 5: I really I think we're all now Oregon fans. I

101
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 5: mean I went to grad school in the Big Ten,

102
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 5: so and I grew up in Big Ten country. It's

103
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 5: weird that Oregon is now a part of it. But

104
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 5: like I can never root for Ohio State. I can

105
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 5: never root for Michigan, which is a non factor right now. Yeah,

106
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 5: but like I want oh I want Oregon to now

107
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 5: carry the torch for the Big Ten because there's been

108
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 5: so much made about how the Big Ten can't contend

109
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 5: with the SEC and this that the other this year,

110
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 5: I know Oregon, so now I'm like I wanted. I

111
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 5: wanted to feel good story of Indiana.

112
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: But now my weight behind or junk jumping on the

113
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: organ bandwagon, which you know, that's okay, that's fun.

114
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 5: Ghost of the Pack Twelveday, I know it's although my

115
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 5: sun devil is this is my this was my game

116
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 5: of the week. ASU is playing BYU. I'm they're up

117
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 5: camp scatabow or scored, So i'm, i'm, i'm, I'm. I

118
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 5: didn't expect the aa SU to be the darlings of

119
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:29,559
Speaker 5: this year.

120
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 3: It's cute and I love it. It's cute. I like

121
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 3: that for you.

122
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 2: All Right, let's get to the NFL, because what a mess,

123
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: you guys. It has been a hot mess in New

124
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: York for both the Jets and the Giants.

125
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 4: Because it's technically New Jersey, but.

126
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 2: They're still there's still New York. So let's start with

127
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: the Giants. Sense of the most recent hot mess. They

128
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 2: officially released Daniel Jones, and let's let's run through the timeline, right,

129
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: because first they benched him on Monday. Then Jones gave

130
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: a statement on Thursday. It looked like he was about

131
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 2: to cry, but was taking responsibility for his play, the

132
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: team's play and thanked the Giants for the opportunity. Then Friday,

133
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 2: the Giants released him, and a statement from Giants president saying,

134
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: Daniel came to me this morning and asked.

135
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: If we would release him. We mutually agreed that was

136
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: best for him and a team. La la la la.

137
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: We wish him nothing but the best for the future,

138
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 2: which then made the Thursday statement make a lot more

139
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 2: sense because it felt like he was saying goodbye to

140
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 2: fans and the organization, and he was because then he

141
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 2: went in to get asked to get released the next day.

142
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 3: But the craziest part of all this to me, you guys,

143
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 3: is that the.

144
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 2: Giants paid Daniel Jones and not Saquon Barkley, when Barkley

145
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 2: was by far the better player on this team. He

146
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 2: wanted to stay in New York, but instead gave the

147
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: bag to Daniel Jones and now he's gone. And Saeque

148
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 2: actually commented on the whole situation this week, saying, sucks

149
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: how it all went down. It didn't work out for

150
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: me over there. I'm doing well over here, Yes he is.

151
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: Hopefully he can find the same kind of fresh start

152
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: and success. Yeah, it's just we got a little sneak

153
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 2: peek into the dysfunction of that franchise during hard Knocks

154
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 2: and how the whole Saquon situation went down.

155
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: But the Giants, man, you've got a lot to figure out.

156
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 5: I mean, I feel for Daniel Jones because this isn't

157
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 5: all on him. No, either, you get rid of his

158
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 5: best offensive weapon. What is he supposed to do? The

159
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 5: crazy part is though, that, yeah, they signed him to

160
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 5: an extension last year because ego.

161
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 4: Is a hell of a thing.

162
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: Yep.

163
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 5: It's hey, we I like sticking behind Daniel Jones because

164
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 5: you were the one to take him. I just and

165
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 5: I don't know how many more chances that these like

166
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 5: this front office is going to get probably like are

167
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 5: you like there's a huge decision now looming for the

168
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 5: Giants in this off season where it's like, all right,

169
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 5: who's going to stay from either this coaching staff. I

170
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 5: still think Brian Dabele's a good coach, but this front office.

171
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 5: Are you going to let that evaluate and draft another quarterback?

172
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: But you let Sequon Barkley go and he isn't? Oh man?

173
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 5: That like that was like there were I saw both

174
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 5: sides of it at the time. Obviously we have the

175
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 5: benefit of hindsight at this point and the benefit of

176
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 5: being able to look back and say, oh, yeah, obviously

177
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 5: that didn't work out, but it was Hey, if you

178
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 5: guys were trying to get younger, if you were trying

179
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 5: to save money on the cap, if you were trying

180
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 5: to build this team kind of by like reloading and

181
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 5: not totally tearing it down, then that made sense to offload.

182
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 4: What like if you don't want to pay a running back.

183
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 5: And especially given the fact that Saquon Barkley isn't young

184
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 5: by running back standards.

185
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 3: Uh and driving, he's still like top two.

186
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I do think a lot of that had

187
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 5: to do with the fact that he got a fresh

188
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 5: start somewhere else.

189
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he needed this. It was actually the best

190
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: case scenario for for him.

191
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I mean it sucks for the Giants, and

192
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 5: that's obviously not how you run your football team. Is

193
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 5: like giving the player himself a fresh start because that's

194
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 5: what he needs, like you as a football team need

195
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 5: him to But uh, this move for Dana Jones, now

196
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 5: it will count. He'll count twenty two million against the

197
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 5: cap in twenty twenty five, but they save nineteen million

198
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 5: dollars now by releasing him next year. So now you

199
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 5: think all right again, Like I was talking about though,

200
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 5: the question you now have if.

201
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 4: You're Mara, You're done?

202
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is are you going to continue to let

203
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 5: this front office dictate who's on this roster and who

204
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 5: this team is investing in going forward?

205
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 4: Because now you need a quarterback?

206
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 3: Yes you do.

207
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 5: And this next year's class it's not as great as

208
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 5: this past year's class was. Can you still find someone? Absolutely?

209
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 5: Are you going to have? Are you going to have

210
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 5: one of the top picks? Probably at this point? So

211
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 5: are you going to leave something like that, a decision

212
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 5: like that that can again shape your franchise?

213
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 3: Yeah?

214
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 4: Are you going to leave that up to this front

215
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 4: office to do? And that's the question mark.

216
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: They got a lot of work to do. But also

217
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 2: like what's next for Daniel Jones. He's going to be

218
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 2: a great backup somewhere, and we've seen starters become backups

219
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,599
Speaker 2: and get that second chance. Jamis Winston kind of the

220
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: biggest example right now, absolutely crushed on Thursday Night. Also,

221
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: like his personality, he was born to be on TV.

222
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: He was absolutely hilarious.

223
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 2: Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, all starters who became backups and

224
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 2: then got a second chance and are now thriving as starters.

225
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 5: I mean there are places that Daniel Jones could go

226
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 5: right now and be a starter. Yeah, that's the most

227
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 5: Where do you think he has to clear waivers first? Yes,

228
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 5: because no team's gonna want to take on the thirteen

229
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 5: and a half million dollars. I think that's still o

230
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 5: tim with thirteen point eight million dollars, that's still ot

231
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 5: to him and guarantees. So four one pm Monday is

232
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,239
Speaker 5: when he is eligible to sign with a new team.

233
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:47,719
Speaker 5: And I don't know where he will end up, but.

234
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 4: I can tell you the funniest scenario.

235
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: Let's go the Cowboy Dallas Cowboys.

236
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there was a whole like the Internet

237
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: kind of went wild with that.

238
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 4: I like, I don't, I don't. The thing is, you

239
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 4: can't put something like this past Jerry Jones' sign because.

240
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 2: He always wants the Giants on Thanksgiving.

241
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's like coming up to be wild.

242
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 5: So like you get him in there and then you

243
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 5: start him against his old team, Like.

244
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 3: That's very headlons, very Jerry. I'm the kidding.

245
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: Other solid places I think that could work that like

246
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: need a good backup and like, have a good coach

247
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 2: that I think would be good for him.

248
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: Miam.

249
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 4: Yeah, one of the Dallas isn't a good place.

250
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: Forty nine ers would be really great.

251
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 4: Like the Raiders need a quarterback. They're they're back and forth.

252
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 5: I mean, like I said, there are places that he

253
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 5: could go and be a starter, which includes Las Vegas

254
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 5: and includes Dallas right now, because Cooper Rush is not

255
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 5: the Cooper Rush that because he doesn't have woopool Rush

256
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 5: had last time.

257
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 3: They don't have. They clearly the same protection.

258
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 5: The Dallas Cowboys clearly have no interest in Trey Lance,

259
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 5: despite the fact they doubled down on that this week.

260
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 5: Jerry Jones said I'd do it again, or maybe it

261
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 5: was Stephen Jones, but either way, they're like, I do

262
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 5: it again, and I'm like, really, I.

263
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 3: Can't show us. I shouldn't speak louder than words.

264
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 5: I I think it would be very, very funny. That

265
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 5: is the most entertaining scenario, and right now I'm rooting

266
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 5: for maximum guys.

267
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm into that. Well, let's move on to the

268
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 2: next mess in New York, which are the Jets. They

269
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: fired their GM Joe Douglas six weeks after firing.

270
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: Their head coach.

271
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 4: That's nothing.

272
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: They're doing nothing.

273
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 2: But we've been getting a few different reports this week

274
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 2: that kind of make everything not makes sense, but like

275
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 2: kind of like, okay, that's why this happened. Jets owner

276
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: suggested benching Rogers in September after the week for Los

277
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: Sala said no, then lost in London. The next week

278
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 2: he was fired, and it makes you kind of realize, Okay,

279
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 2: maybe it wasn't Aaron Rodgers that got it done. It's

280
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 2: just Woody does not.

281
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 5: I still think that Aaron Rodgers had something to do

282
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 5: with that because they were not on the same page,

283
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 5: him and Sola whatsoever.

284
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 3: And you can but now.

285
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 2: Woody and Rodgers aren't on the same page because there's

286
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: reports that he doesn't want Rogers back and Rogers doesn't

287
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 2: want to come back, which I mean, after the way

288
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 2: everything's gone down these last two he said, why would

289
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: you try.

290
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 3: To run it back for a third year? No, I

291
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 3: mean you shouldn't.

292
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 5: You shouldn't, But I also don't know like where you're

293
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 5: gonna go that's going to be any different if you're

294
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 5: Aaron rod Yes.

295
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 3: That's the other thing is like who who do you like?

296
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 4: The Jets had.

297
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 5: The Jets had a lot as far as the talent

298
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 5: they had on the roster and the situation that he

299
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 5: was going to I wouldn't I won't say they were

300
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 5: just a quarterback away, because I don't believe that. But

301
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 5: they had a really solid defense under Robert Sala. They

302
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 5: had one of the best young receivers in the league

303
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 5: in Garrett Wilson. And then you realize, though, all of

304
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 5: the baggage that Rogers comes with, and you're like, hu,

305
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 5: all right, now there's this push pull of egos, there's

306
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 5: a power struggle, there's are Rogers friends the right thing

307
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 5: for this organization, and like it just goes spectacularly to pieces.

308
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 4: And I have to say, I told you so.

309
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 5: I lived with someone who thought that the Jets were

310
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 5: up until two weeks ago.

311
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 4: Wouldn't quit on the Jets.

312
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 2: And I'm like, hun, no, no, no, no, no, I

313
00:13:58,559 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 2: said from the beginning, this isn't going to work.

314
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 3: Prove a concept. We have none. There's no way this

315
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 3: is going to work.

316
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 5: I mean, we have a situation where this worked. It's

317
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 5: not the exact same situation. Yeah, yeah, but yeah, exactly,

318
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 5: like this is where you kind of Rogers got exposed

319
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 5: for the lack of culture that he brings, the lack

320
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 5: of team building he brings. He's not a really great teammate.

321
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 5: We have a lot of evidence of that, except if

322
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 5: you're one of his guys, and then he'll drag you

323
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 5: all over the country.

324
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 2: So the next question is should Rex Ryan come? Why

325
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: is that a question the Jets? Why is that a question?

326
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 3: Well done?

327
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: We're going to listen to what he had to say

328
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 2: when he was asked about it this week.

329
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I'd like to there's no doubt about it.

330
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 6: I've let everybody know that I definitely would be interested

331
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 6: in that job, even though I got a great gig.

332
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 6: You know, I do Sunday NFL Countdown, do get up,

333
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 6: as you mentioned the things, and it's hard to beat

334
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 6: that job. But you know, I think I have some

335
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 6: unfinished business, especially with that franchise. That particular franchise is

336
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 6: you know, my dad was there forever he won a

337
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 6: Super Bowl and it's super close to me, and you know,

338
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 6: I just think that, you know, I would get back

339
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 6: in it if I thought I could make a difference,

340
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 6: and I think I could make a big difference with

341
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 6: that team.

342
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: I mean, he hasn't coached since twenty sixteen, but he

343
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: did make the AFC Championship Game in his first two seasons.

344
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: He has the most playoff wins in just franchise history.

345
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 4: Not saying much.

346
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, so what happened after those first two seasons? He

347
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 5: didn't have another winning record.

348
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 3: In New York.

349
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: But like again, if he he didn't have a winning

350
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: record with both deals with like a this is crazy.

351
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 5: Owner, this is such a this is this is of

352
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 5: course he's gonna say he wants to come back, but

353
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 5: there is there's no reason to give any of this credence.

354
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 5: Like there's just like you said, he hasn't coached since

355
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 5: twenty sixteen. He hasn't had a winning record since twenty ten.

356
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 5: That's yeah, like by the time twenty twenty five, that's.

357
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 3: Fayeah, that was the Mark Sanchez era too.

358
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 5: It's not even the same league anymore at this point.

359
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 5: So this is like I don't like, sure whatever, Rex, Ryan,

360
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 5: but like, keep your cushi TV job work once what

361
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 5: Like these guys are just sick ohs man like and

362
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 5: most of it, most of the time, I love it,

363
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 5: but I'm just like, dude, keep your coachy TV job.

364
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 4: You have no business coming back in if.

365
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: He wants to go back into the dysfunction, like well,

366
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 2: also who that job?

367
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 5: No one else is going to want more dysfunction on

368
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 5: the horizon too. Given the fact that Woody Johnson, what

369
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 5: did he do during Trump's last candidacy, He was the

370
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 5: ambassador to the UK. So there is a very real

371
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 5: chance that Woody Johnson is going to leave this franchise

372
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 5: again to do that, because he can't actually be part

373
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 5: of the decision making for an NFL franchise while he

374
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 5: is serving the federal government. So there's so much that

375
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 5: the fact that like he came back in and then

376
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 5: made all of these essentially changes, like this, this organization

377
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 5: reeks of just inconsistencies.

378
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 4: And it's because like it starts at the top.

379
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's brutal.

380
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry for Jets fans.

381
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 3: I really am, Guys, you know, I'm sorry for Davante Adams.

382
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: I'm not like trade it into another functional situation where

383
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 2: he wanted to play with a quarterback he played before.

384
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 5: He's probably had he had agency not going to be there,

385
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 5: he had agency in this trade. I do not feel

386
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 5: bad for DeVante Adams all right, Like here, what he

387
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 5: was doing, you heard it. I don't all right, if

388
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 5: you're gonna make your bed with Aaron Rodgers, you did.

389
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 3: We probably told me he's gonna stay there.

390
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's it' that's on you, man.

391
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 3: It's all the dumpsterfire.

392
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 2: We're gonna take a quick break here, but when we

393
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 2: come back, could Dion Sanders save the Cowboys?

394
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,080

Speaker 2: Welcome back to Fox Football Saturday. I'm Alex Curry here

399
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 2: with Carmen Vitally. We are broadcasting live from the Tark

400
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: dot Com studios in Los Angeles.

401
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 3: Thank you for spending your Saturday afternoon with us.

402
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 2: So we got another fun question about another hot team,

403
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: hot mess of a team, because that was kind of

404
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 2: our our topic at the top of the show. New

405
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 2: York is a hot mess both the teams, but the

406
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 2: Cowboys are definitely in that conversation as well. So the

407
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 2: question is could Dion Sanders save the Cowboys? And this

408
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 2: was a funny topic this week that I think only

409
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 2: happened if the Cowboys end up drafting Shadoor Sanders. And

410
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 2: this all started with IRV on the Herd this week saying,

411
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 2: I believe one hundred percent Dion would accept the Cowboys

412
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,360
Speaker 2: job if they draft his son Shador. And I can

413
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: tell you I got good sources that told me.

414
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 4: That, really good sources.

415
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, obviously the Cowboys they're gonna have a lot

416
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 2: of changes next year. Doesn't feel like McCarthy's going to

417
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 2: be back a head coach. They did just re sign Dak,

418
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 2: so that's something that they would need to figure out.

419
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 3: They're also currently in the ninth.

420
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 2: Draft spot, so a lot would have to happen to

421
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 2: make this happen. And it's all just kind of wishful

422
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: thinking at the moment. You might have to trade to

423
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 2: move up. Michael Parsons is a big one that you

424
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 2: might not be able to keep. What are you gonna

425
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 2: do with Dak who has a no trade clause. Maybe

426
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: he adjusts it once he finds out you want to

427
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: get Shador and you're trying to bring in Dion.

428
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 4: I mean, the Cowboys already made their bed. They but

429
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 4: they did.

430
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 5: They paid Dak Prescott sixty million dollars for four years.

431
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 5: You're not you're not moving off of that at this point. Also,

432
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 5: like that is the homegrown guy. You found him in

433
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 5: the fourth round. Yeah, and I realized that Dak was

434
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 5: drafted when you thought that Tony Romo was still going

435
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 5: to be your starter for three to five years and

436
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 5: then he just so happened to get hurt and then

437
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 5: Dak while he pipped him. But that's not the case here.

438
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 5: You weren't paying Tony Romo's sixty million dollars a year,

439
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 5: and you're not gonna waste basically all of a rookie

440
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 5: contract by drafting a quarterback now, and for all intents

441
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,479
Speaker 5: and purposes, we're seeing Shador Sanders like draft stock go

442
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 5: through the roof. You're not gonna be able to hang

443
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 5: around and get him in like the second round.

444
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 3: Like this is gonna have to be a first round,

445
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 3: And that would.

446
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 5: Be so incredibly reckless, even for even by Cowboys standards,

447
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 5: to take a quarterback in the first round when you

448
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 5: have so many other needs at this point, and you're right,

449
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 5: you're gonna have You're gonna have to get Micah Parsons

450
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 5: paid this offseason, and for as kind of down as

451
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 5: the season as he's had given his injuries, he still

452
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 5: leads the team in pressures despite playing just six games

453
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 5: this year. So he's not exactly gonna come at a discount.

454
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people are hoping for that.

455
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 5: But let's not forget his agent is David Mullagetta. Micah

456
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 5: Parsons is going after being the highest paid edge rusher

457
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 5: or highest paid non quarterback in the league right now,

458
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 5: despite even despite the injuries this year. And so if

459
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 5: you can't do that and you've got all that money

460
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 5: tied up and Dak, you need to get younger, if

461
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 5: you're the Dallas Cowboys, and you need to be getting

462
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 5: production and out of your drest Marry.

463
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 3: Jones, he wants to splash. He wants the possession.

464
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 2: And honestly, Dion Sanders might be the only coach it

465
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 2: would be able to like change the culture and turn

466
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 2: this team around in that sense.

467
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 3: We just saw it with Boulder.

468
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 4: Okay, a college team, and the Dallas Cowboys.

469
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 2: But he also has history different and Jerry has a

470
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 2: different relationship.

471
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 5: You don't forget though, Don't forget that Dion is used

472
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 5: to being judge Jerry an executioner with his program that

473
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 5: is not how it works.

474
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 3: In Dallas, but maybe he lets it happen.

475
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 4: Jerry him and Stephen Jones, Him and Stephen Jones.

476
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 5: That's the whole thing about people talking about Belichick going

477
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 5: to the Cowboys. That would be something that is so

478
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 5: far fetched given the fact that that Bill Belichick in

479
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 5: New England was the GM and the head coach, and

480
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 5: that is something that reportedly he wants in another team

481
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 5: that he would coach. Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones aren't

482
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 5: giving up the GM part, especially to a guy that's

483
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 5: coming from college where the things work completely differently. There

484
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,199
Speaker 5: would be a huge learning curve with Dion Sanders if

485
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 5: you gave him all of that responsibility. There probably would

486
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,639
Speaker 5: be anyway if he decides to make the jump to

487
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 5: the NFL. But like I get that they want splashy whatever.

488
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 5: There are plenty of coaches out there. Gone get Ben Johnson,

489
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 5: Get Ben Johnson from the from the Detroit Lions, Go

490
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 5: pay him eight figures a year and watch that be

491
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 5: a huge splash because smart thing to do.

492
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 3: But have we seen the Cowboys do the smart thing?

493
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 4: I mean, so they're coaching hires.

494
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 5: I loved the hire of Mike McCarthy Mike McCarthy had

495
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 5: one in Green Bay. Don't forget something that Dallas Cowboys

496
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 5: haven't done in over thirty years.

497
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 4: So this is something that I just I can't.

498
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 5: Really think too hard about it because, like you said,

499
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 5: it's wishful thinking.

500
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 3: Wish but I would not put it past Jerry Joe.

501
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 4: But it's wishful thinking to go soon.

502
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 3: I take a big swing.

503
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 4: I can't.

504
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 3: That's not that's not responsation, Like are the Cowboys? Have

505
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 3: they been responsible?

506
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 5: And when it comes to stuff like the draft and

507
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 5: the way that they build their roster aside from the

508
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 5: fact that they make their star players prove themselves over

509
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 5: and over again, which they don't agree.

510
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 4: With, but they draft really well, really well.

511
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 5: And you have a guy and Will McLay in that

512
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 5: front office that does so much behind the scenes, and

513
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 5: you don't want to mess that up. You have such

514
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 5: a good track record. And again you have to get younger.

515
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 5: You cannot take a chance with this year's draft class

516
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 5: coming in because of the contracts that are coming down

517
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 5: the pipe, the contracts you're already committed to between DAK

518
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 5: and CD. You have to get younger, and you have

519
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 5: to get production right away.

520
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I would not put it past Terry Jones.

521
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 2: But now let's check in with Monty Bilanios and see

522
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 2: what's trending.

523
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 3: Y'all.

524
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 7: There's a mess in New York, and there's a mess

525
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 7: in college football. So I don't know if you guys

526
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 7: were able to watch because it was on Peacock, but

527
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 7: number twenty five Illinois survive against Rutgers.

528
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 3: The final score was thirty eight to thirty one. But

529
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 3: here's the thing. There were ill David.

530
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 7: Illinois was down by one with fourteen seconds left fourth

531
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 7: and thirteen around the Rutgers forty yard line. They decided

532
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 7: to go for the fifty three yard field goal. Then

533
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 7: Rutgers called the timeout before the ball was snapped.

534
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 3: The kicker missed the field goal, but the timeout was

535
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 3: before the ball was snapped. So then they decided to

536
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 3: go for a touchdown and.

537
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 7: They scored, and they got it, and they got it.

538
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 3: Uh hot mess, and I love it. I'm all for that.

539
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 7: So number twenty five Illinois survives.

540
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 3: Number thirteen SMU. They beat Virginia thirty three seventeen. Guess what.

541
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 7: SMU has clinched a spot in the ACC Championship game

542
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 7: with that win, Number ten Jorida CRUs Georgia cruise pass

543
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 7: Massachusetts fifty nine to twenty one. Florida with a twenty

Speaker 7: eight Miami crushed Wake Forest forty two to fourteen, and

546
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 7: number two Ohio State came back to beat the undefeated Hoosiers.

547
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 3: Thirty eight to fifteen.

548
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 7: Right now, it's number eleven Tennessee all over UTEB fifty

549
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 7: six zero.

550
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 3: That is not a typo. Two minutes to go in

551
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 3: the game.

552

Speaker 3: Minutes to go in the first half.

558
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 7: Kansas is up on number sixteen Colorado seventeen zero in

559
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 7: the first quarter. Colorado just held possession of the ball

560
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 7: for one minute and nineteen seconds.

561
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 4: That's it, Noice. You just scored and kicked an Onzie

562
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 4: kick and got it. I mean, by the way, thank you.

563
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 7: I didn't know it was that, but that's how they

564
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 7: got to fourteen.

565
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 4: Well, no, they just did it.

566
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 3: They just did it right now, it's twenty one.

567
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 7: It's twenty one, twenty one, so that just happened. Number

Speaker 7: zero early in the first quarter.

573
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 3: A little NFL news for you guys.

574
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 7: Cowboys are going to be with outright tackle Zach Martin

575
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 7: and without cornerback Trevon Diggs for this Sunday against the Commanders.

576
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 7: But Washington is going to have their kickerback Austin Seipert,

577
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 7: while the Panthers have placed running back Miles Sanders on

578
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 7: injured reserve. They faced the Chiefs this weekend, and the

579
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 7: Buccaneers have downgraded left tackle Tristan Wurf's too doubtful for

580
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 7: their game against the Giants. No boe back to you ladies.

581
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 2: Thank you, Monxi, Jess, jeez, jeez here, let's need a

582
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 2: Fox Football Saturday. I'm Alex Curry here with Carmen Vitali.

583
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 2: We are broadcasting live from the Tara dot Com studios

584
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: in a Los Angeles and it it's time for our

585
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 2: first guest, the founder and CEO of The Sporting Tribune,

586
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 2: our friend Auraj Marcazi, joining us live from Vegas for

587
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: F one.

588
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 3: Ahrahi there, I am here, dude. What's the vibe?

589
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 2: Like, I've been like stalking everyone that's there on social media.

590
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 8: It's amazing. Yeah. I mean, so they had a qualifying

591
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 8: yesterday practice on Thursday, getting ready for the big race today.

592
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 8: Obviously late night race had bem pacific. I think everyone's

593
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 8: excited for that. But the vibes are amazing. The vibes

594
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 8: are a lot of fun. You know. I was here

595
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 8: last year for the race, but I wasn't covering it,

596
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 8: so I was just watching it from a farm. But

597
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 8: to be actually covering it and like in the panic

598
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 8: and in the garage, it's been tremendous. Yeah.

599
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 5: I think last year there were there were a few

600
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 5: kind of bumps in the road quite literally, quite literally.

601
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 5: Have you seen because you were there last year, now

602
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 5: you see it this year. Have there been kind of

603
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 5: maybe some improvements made. Do they seem like they are

604
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 5: a little bit more organized this year? I mean last

605
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 5: year it was. It looks really cool but I know

606
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 5: the behind the scenes stuff was questionable.

607
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean so like last year they had the

608
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 8: pothole situation that canceled the up practice run that. You know.

609
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 8: The problem is because it's a race, it's a street

610
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 8: race on the strip. The local hated. I mean, I

611
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 8: yeah a ton of time in Vegas, and I don't

612
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 8: think you're like the majority of the locals don't like

613
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 8: the race. I mean, if this race was held somewhere else,

614
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 8: like not on the strip and not affecting their lives,

615
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 8: I think that they would love it. So listen, this

616
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 8: is a year two of what could be a ten

617
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 8: year deal. Uh. They do have like kick it out

618
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 8: clause after year three, So I think these first three

619
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 8: years so they have improved in year two. We'll see

620
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 8: how they do in year three. But following year three,

621
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 8: I mean, really, there's gonna be a conversation about, you know,

622
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 8: what does the future hold for the Gulas Vegas Grand

623
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,199
Speaker 8: Pre It's been amazing. I expect a lot of celebrities

624
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 8: who starts. There was a time last night, but there

625
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 8: will be even more tonight. So it's a fun race,

626
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 8: but it's a unique one in the sense that it

627
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 8: is a street race that takes over the strip, and

628
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 8: not just for three days for them to set this up.

629
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 8: I mean it is a you know, three to four

630
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:38,479
Speaker 8: months thing.

631
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, everything is that's shut down, hard to get anywhere. Yeah,

632
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 2: but let's talk some Chargers football, because you were there

633
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: for their big win Sunday night. Jim Harbaugh has turned

634
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: things around so quickly with the Chargers. They're sitting at

635
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 2: seven and three. Like, what's been the biggest impact you've

636
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 2: seen personally being around this team, being around Harbaugh that

637
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: he has done to really help turn this team around.

638
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 8: He's really given them the belief. You know, you go

639
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 8: to that game on Sunday dying against Cincinnati with the

640
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 8: Chargers at the twenty one point lead in the third quarter,

641
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 8: and then the game is tied, and then everyone, whether

642
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 8: you're at so far or whether you're at home or

643
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 8: you're around the country, chargering it up. I mean that

644
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 8: has become a term that even the team had used

645
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 8: and it was a real thing. And so for them

646
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 8: to find a way to win that game again, for

647
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 8: them to win that game in that fashion, I thought

648
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 8: that was more significant than if they had won that

649
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 8: game by twenty one because it gave them that confidence.

650
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 8: Those days are over. And really Harbaugh from day one

651
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 8: at camp, just because of this track record of success

652
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 8: with San Francisco, We're coming off of winning a championship.

653
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 8: They believe in him and so this is another big

654
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 8: game on Monday night. So the first hardball bull that

655
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 8: we've had here.

656
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 9: So this is going to be a.

657
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 8: Ton of fun.

658
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm so excited for that. But I do think

659
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 5: that that's such a great point to bring up. I mean,

660
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 5: the ball changed hands like what three four different times

661
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 5: many minutes of that game, and any other year the

662
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 5: Chargers don't come out on the winning side of that

663
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 5: at all, and I think that that was something that

664
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 5: can now propel them, Like.

665
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 4: Look, the narrative really is changing.

666
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 5: And along those lines, though, are we talking enough about

667
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 5: Jesse Minter and the job that he has done with

668
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 5: the Chargers defense.

669
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 8: No, we haven't, And again a lot of that is

670
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 8: because of Harbaugh. Again, people want to shower him with praise,

671
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 8: but the defense has really been such a big key

672
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 8: for the team. And by the way, Harbaugh's does a

673
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 8: very good job. And if you haven't heard or seen

674
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 8: one of his press conferences, go on YouTube. Kudos to

675
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 8: their PR director Josh Rupric, he lets Harbaugh go. There

676
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 8: is no other coach in all of sports that I've covered,

677
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 8: certainly not in Los Angeles. Usually around like the ten

678
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 8: minute mark or like the eight minute mark, you know,

679
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 8: two more questions, last questions, the Chargers let him go.

680
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 8: So you'll have those Spress conferences on Monday Wednesday. Those

681
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 8: sometimes go twenty to thirty minutes, and it is awesome

682
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 8: to watch him do his thing.

683
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so there's been so much hype around Justin Herbert

684
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: since he entered the league, but there's also been that

685
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: narrative of like is he going to live up to

686
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 2: the hype? And I feel like we're finally seeing a

687
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 2: different Justin Herbert this season.

688
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 3: What's his relationship been like with Harbaugh?

689
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,479
Speaker 8: It's amazing. I mean, I mean he really showers him

690
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 8: with praise, but he really believes that. I mean, like

691
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 8: even before he took the job, he was always very

692
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 8: very complimentary towards Justin Herbert. But this week, and again

693
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 8: Harbaugh said this is not a hyperbole. He called him

694
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 8: one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, not just

695
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 8: currently in the league. So that relationship is extremely strong.

696
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 8: Harba believes that this is a championship quarterback and really,

697
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 8: like the biggest thing was surrounding him with the strong

698
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 8: game on the ground, so they can run the ball

699
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 8: and they have a great defense. Is usual touchdown. So

700
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 8: the big thing at the beginning of the season, which

701
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 8: two things were in play, was that Herbert.

702
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 9: Was not healthy.

703
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 8: We've really seen how he can run the ball again.

704
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 8: No one's gonna call him, you know, the next you know,

705
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 8: the most Tychel Vick. But he can move. So he

706
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 8: is healthy really for the first time in a while.

707
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 8: But he's not worried about statistics. If you remember, at

708
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 8: the beginning of the season, they were finding a way

709
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 8: to win games, but he wasn't throwing a ton. He

710
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 8: doesn't care like following last year, which was a disaster.

711
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 8: He just loves being a part of a team that

712
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 8: is finding a way to win. So he doesn't care

713
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 8: whether he throws the ball ten times, fifteen, twenty or forty.

714
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 8: He just wants to win.

715
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 5: How much do we trust the Los Angeles Chargers now

716
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 5: going forward throughout the season. I mean, he still thinks

717
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 5: that the Kansadate Chiefs are going to win that division.

718
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 5: But are we talking Wildcard. Do we really trust them

719
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 5: to win a playoff game at this point?

720
00:32:59,120 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 4: What do we think?

721
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 8: It's a great question because you know the Chargers historically,

722
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 8: I mean again, this is the you know, the last

723
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 8: time that they've got to the super Bowl was back

724
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 8: in nineteen ninety four, so it's been a long long time.

725
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 8: But yeah, I mean, listen, the Chargers still have to

726
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,959
Speaker 8: deal with this. I mean we've all thought it, and

727
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 8: I thought it well while I was watching the game.

728
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 8: At so far, a twenty one point lead, it doesn't matter.

729
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 8: They're going to find a way to lose the game.

730
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 8: So they still have to figure out a way to

731
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 8: prove those wrong. And again, unless you do it again,

732
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 8: this is nice, but then there'd be seven and three

733
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 8: is significant. I don't think they're going to win the division,

734
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 8: although they still could. But this team really truly is

735
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 8: built for the playoffs, and that is the one thing. Again,

736
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 8: Harbaugh has very much been week to weeks, but he

737
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 8: has talked about it. The way that this team is

738
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 8: built is to win in the playoffs where they are

739
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 8: have a strong run game of a smart quarterback in

740
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 8: a solid defense. So and again, Harvall's been there before,

741
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 8: and so but you bring up a great point, right,

742
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 8: I mean, there are these franchises and to in particular

743
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 8: in Los Angeles where you know, the Clippers and the Chargers,

744
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 8: like as good as they are during the season, like

745
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 8: show me what you can do during the postseason because

746
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 8: we have not seen.

747
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 3: It yet as before we let you go so far.

748
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 2: Just from watching it on the TV, looked like it

749
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: was bumping and bumping a little more for the Chargers,

750
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 2: which isn't normally the case. Have we seen a shift

751
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 2: in the fandom as well.

752
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 8: We really have, And again yeah, I mean this is

753
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 8: something that has kind of like been building during the

754
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 8: course of the season. And again they really it's good

755
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 8: for them to be playing week night games, so my

756
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 8: Monday night game will be big. The fact that that

757
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,240
Speaker 8: Thursday night game on December nineteenth against the Broncos got plugged.

758
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 8: What that enables the Chargers to do is have the

759
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 8: local fans and they really price the tickets out so

760
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 8: they're affordable, something that a lot of people aren't talking

761
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 8: about that Some of my friends in San Diego don't

762
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 8: want to admit you have some of those fans. They're saying,

763
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 8: like listen two hour drive or a two hour train ride,

764
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 8: like like, let's go watch see what the Chargers can do. So,

765
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 8: I mean I have not seen a Charger's home game

766
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 8: since say move to Los Angeles. Look sound and feel

767
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 8: like that that was a Charger's home crowd. Yeah, I

768
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 8: expect the same on Monday. So this has been really

769
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:17,959
Speaker 8: fun to watch.

770
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 3: Oh, we love it a rash.

771
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining us and have so

772
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:22,360

774
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 2: All right, when we come back, you guys, it's the

775
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 2: dues and the dots in sports. You're listening to Fox

776
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. Welcome back to Fox Football Saturday. I'm Alex

777
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 2: Curry here with Carmen Vitally. We are broadcasting live from

778
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 2: the tire dot Com studios in Los Angeles. So distracting

779
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,919
Speaker 2: to try to say anything when there's a good song

780
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 2: in the background. But that's okay, I say it, you saying, Karmen.

781
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 4: Because nobody wants to hear that, But I am there.

782
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,959
Speaker 3: Things all right, guys. It's sound for the dues and

783
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 3: the don'ts in sports.

784
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 4: H I love that.

785
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 1: Putting the spotlight on the dons.

786
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 2: The subject brings me no joy.

787
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 4: That's insane.

788
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: It's time for the dues and the dons in sports.

789
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna fire with a double deal.

790
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 2: Okay, do troll your opponents if you can back it up.

791
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 3: And I got two here.

792
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,240
Speaker 2: So last week Mike McDaniels caught on the broadcast rolling

793
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:22,800
Speaker 2: Raiders Max Crosby after man.

794
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 3: Off sides and it's I mean, it's hilarious.

795
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 2: The reason McDaniel's was trolling it was because he was

796
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 2: pretending to change the call. He yelled it out but

797
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 2: didn't actually change the call, and then he got him

798
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 2: to jump and Mike is yelling at we didn't know

799
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 2: the play call, Max, we have the play call, Max l.

800
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 4: Well, Mike daniel is our millennial head coach.

801
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 2: King I know, I love him so much. And then

802
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,800
Speaker 2: the second one is Ke Grivy Junior and Blake Griffin

803
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: trolling Charles Barkley during the match. I don't know if

804
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: you saw this a golf tournament because of how sweaty

805
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 2: he was while he was playing, and he was playing

806
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 2: with Kenby j and Griffy said it was like sitting

807
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 2: next to an eight month old puppy rottweiler with his

808
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: head out the car window panting trying to get air.

809
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 2: And that's just the two of them riding in a

810
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 2: golf cart together.

811
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:11,919
Speaker 8: Nice.

812
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 4: I note, I want an eight month puppy, so can

813
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 4: I have one? I gotta do? Okay, do meet your heroes?

814
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 5: Yes, Jalen Brown, who is my favorite NBA player. We

815
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 5: established that last season when he went on or during

816
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,720
Speaker 5: the postseason when he went on his Harry Potter rant.

817
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 5: Adore that man, but I adore him even more now

818
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 5: because he tweeted on November two, how do I meet Bill?

819
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 4: Not a science guy?

820
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,240
Speaker 5: And then he just posted a pic with a really

821
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 5: sweet caption either today or estraight, and the Celtics just

822
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 5: retweeted it that Hey, you made learning fun growing up.

823
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 5: Thanks for taking a picture with me. I adore that

824
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 5: so much. So like we talk about this all the

825
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 5: time with like athletes and like kids getting to meet

826
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,320
Speaker 5: their heroes when it comes to athletes, but like athletes

827
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 5: meeting their heroes that have nothing to do with sports

828
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 5: is just so incredibly wholesome.

829
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,439
Speaker 4: And yeah, thanks Bill ny for making learning fun.

830
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 3: I love that.

831
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 2: I had that as one of my duws too, and

832
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 2: he was talking about it in the postgame press or too,

833
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 2: and said to shake his hand for helping me in

834
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 2: my education journey.

835
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 3: That was just pretty cool.

836
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 2: And they asked him like why why did you tweet

837
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 2: that him? Like why why were you thinking?

838
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 8: Why not?

839
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 2: He's like, I was just thinking about my you know,

840
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 2: like my education journey. And I was like, man, every

841
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 2: time they put on Bill Nye, like I really wanted

842
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:27,919
Speaker 2: to learn.

843
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 5: I'm convinced that Jayalen Brown and I are kind of

844
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 5: the same person if we have like these are our

845
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 5: major influences. Like I watched Bill Nye growing up religiously.

846
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 5: I read Harry Potter Steel all the time. Jay Brown

847
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 5: and I have the same personality, like a king.

848
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 3: So like, come on, Like the intro was a sleigh.

849
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I was Bill.

850
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,879
Speaker 3: There's science guy Bill, Bill, Bill.

853
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 3: The Yukon women's.

854
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 2: Basketball team were blonde wigs honor Chris Day. They show

855

857
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 2: rigs trying to keep it together. But just like she

858
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 2: loved it, the team loved it. It was so much

859
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: out of respect obviously for the goat, and she said,

860

907
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 2: Even had a line this is what I love too

908
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 2: to Lil Wayne about the Super Bowl situation, saying, I

909
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 2: think my hard work, let low Wayne down won the

910
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 2: super Bowl and nas is the only one who congratulated me.

911
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 2: And in case you don't understand the drama there, Lil

912
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 2: Wayne is from New Orleans, where the super Bowl is

913
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 2: going to be. He's a sports fan and thought, I

914
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 2: think Lil Wayne thought it was like in the bag

915
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 2: and he was.

916
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 3: Gonna get it.

917
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 2: So after they announced Kendrick as a halftime performer, Lil

918
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 2: Wayne shared a video of how upset he was that

919
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 2: he didn't get it.

920
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 3: And we love Lila Wayne like.

921
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 2: He's a Fox Sports guy, He's been on our air,

922
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 2: he's a friend.

923
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 4: I have his lyrics tattooed on me.

924
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 2: I love both low Wayne and Kendrick Lamar like I

925
00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 2: have personal connections with both. But Lo Wayne also bonded today, saying, uh,

926
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 2: let's not mistake kindness for weakness.

927
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,439
Speaker 3: Let the giant sleep. I get you all. No one

928
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 3: really wants.

929
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 2: Destruction, not even me, but I shall destroy if disturbed.

930

Speaker 4: Yeah, he's like, quit poking the bear, Hendrick.

931
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 3: Yeah we might get like another little like that.

932
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 4: I don't want that. I don't want that. I don't

933
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 4: want to my favorite rappers.

934
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 2: I was hoping there was going to be a possible

935
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 2: Little Wayne appearance during the super Bowl halftime show.

936
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 3: But after that, like, I don't think that's happening.

937
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I mean I don't. I don't think so,

938
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:32,240
Speaker 4: especially if they start footing.

939
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean it was the song was bagged

940
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 5: up that my fiance came in and like that snippet

941
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 5: has been out for a long time. It was just

942
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 5: like a twenty second snippet. Yeah, and it well, like

943
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 5: what megrobiol was just wild as just a snippet. And

944
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,320
Speaker 5: so then he puts us on and I'm like, okay,

945
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 5: what what And then all of a sudden I hear

946
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 5: the rest of going and.

947
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 3: I was like, woo chills, baby chills.

948
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 5: And so then I've been That's what I've been listening to,

949
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 5: not soup. I hope that they don't keep feuding or

950
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,840
Speaker 5: that they don't actually feud, because those are two of

951
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 5: my favorite rappers. And uh, but I like I would

952
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 5: have to take Cye and it would have to be

953
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 5: Low Wayne because again, like I have invested so much

954
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 5: of my life in being his fan.

955
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 8: I have to.

956
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 5: He is tattooed on my body, like his lyrics are

957
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 5: tattooed on my body and I do not regret a

958
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 5: second of that. So, like I would have, I've already

00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 2: break a lot of teams, Teams on the edge, teams

978
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 2: trying to hold on, or teams.

979
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 3: Just looking towards the future.

980
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,840
Speaker 2: So we're gonna play do we trust, and we're going

981
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 2: to go through a list of teams, and we're going

982
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: to start with the Bears. Carmen, we haven't had you

983
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 2: on since everything went down two weeks ago firing their

984
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 2: OC You were at that crazy game last weekend?

985
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 3: Go off? What's the like in the Bears building right now?

986
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 4: Like do we trust them to do?

987
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 8: What?

988
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 2: Do you trust them that helped kyleb become a great quarterback?

989
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 2: Do you trust them to make the right choices moving forward?

990
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 5: As long as we're not because I feel like the

991
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 5: rest of these were talking about like.

992
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,280
Speaker 3: Posting this season. No, no, this is the future.

993
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 2: This is this is not Do you trust them to

994
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 2: handle the future properly with now whoever they bring in,

995
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 2: because it doesn't really feel like ebra Flus might be

996
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 2: their next year either, Like so there might be in

997
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 2: a complete new system and you had what everyone thought

998
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 2: was going to be the future of quarterbacks in the

999
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,240
Speaker 2: NFL in Caleb Williams, I trust.

1000
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 4: Kleb to be different, I'll say that much.

1001
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 5: I don't try, but I don't trust it because I

1002
00:44:55,080 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 5: think the organization is behaving any differently because theoretically and historically.

1003
00:44:59,560 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 4: They are not.

1004
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 5: No, Like if they end up firing Mattieberflues, which I

1005
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 5: still think is an if because he reportedly still has

1006
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 5: two years left on his contract, and we have seen

1007
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 5: Bear's ownership not be willing to pay coaches if they

1008
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 5: have more years multiple years left on their contracts. So

1009
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 5: I still think that that's an if. But even if

1010
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 5: they were to do that and fire Mattiberflus, then they

1011
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 5: are perpetuating a cycle that has happened twice now in

1012
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 5: a row before that would to be a third time

1013
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 5: in a row that they have fired a head coach

1014
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 5: the year after taking a quarterback in the first round.

1015
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,720
Speaker 5: It happened to Justin Fields, it happened to Mitch Trubisky

1016
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 5: before him. I do, however, this is the caveats all

1017
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 5: of it. I trust Caleb to come out the other

1018
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 5: side better than the other two. I still don't know

1019
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 5: up to his potential. Yeah, because I do think we're

1020
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 5: seeing more than ever that initial situation matters more and

1021
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,839
Speaker 5: coaching matters more than ever. You look at guys like

1022
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,719
Speaker 5: Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, even Jared Goff who was left

1023
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 5: for dead by the Rams and now has this resurgence

1024
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 5: with the Lions. Yeah, situation and coaching matters a tremendous amount.

1025
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 5: And I do think though that Caleb Williams can withstand

1026
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 5: having his head coach fired bringing somebody else in because

1027
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 5: of what he's already showed us this season. You go

1028
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 5: back to stuff like the Washington game, which was absolutely

1029
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,359
Speaker 5: catastrophic at the end. But if you look at that game,

1030
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 5: the first three quarters, Caleb was awful, the offense was awful,

1031
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 5: everything was going poorly, and yet that fourth quarter, Caleb

1032
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 5: fought back, ye turned it on, got the Bears to

1033
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 5: a lead with twenty five seconds left, so that it

1034
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 5: was going to take a miracle for Washington to end

1035
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 5: up winning the game.

1036
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 4: Now they got that miracle, but that had nothing to

1037
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 4: do with Kayler Williams.

1038
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 2: Nope.

1039
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 5: And then you look at this game against the Green

1040
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,800
Speaker 5: Bay Packers. This was even like this was now condensed

1041
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,720
Speaker 5: into one drive where the Packers go down and score.

1042
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:51,800
Speaker 5: You have to Now you're behind by by a point,

1043
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 5: you have to get a field goal. That's all you need, though,

1044
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 5: and you've got a couple of minutes. It is a

1045
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:59,280
Speaker 5: quintessential two minute drill. What happens Caleb Williams gets sacked

1046
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 5: on the first two plays of that game, back to back.

1047
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:03,879
Speaker 4: What happens after that?

1048
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 5: Third and nineteen he converts to Roma Dunsay, fourth and

1049
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 5: three he converts to Romadunzay. He gets the Bears into

1050
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 5: within Cairo Santos their kickers range to set up the

1051
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 5: game winning field goal.

1052
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 4: That is all you could have asked of him to do.

1053
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 5: And to have the mental fortitude to be able to

1054
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 5: get down and then fight back even when you take

1055
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 5: back to back sacks and you're in these low probability situations.

1056
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 5: The belief he has in himself is unshakeable. So I

1057
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 5: do think that I, like Kayleb Williams, will end up

1058
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 5: better than his two predecessors, as in Justin Fields and

1059
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 5: mister Bisky. How far beyond that sincerely depends on the

1060
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 5: Bears doing the right thing. But I don't trust them

1061
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,479
Speaker 5: to do that because we have not seen them spend

1062
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 5: money on a head coach. And in order to really

1063
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 5: get going, you have to pick the right guy. You

1064
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 5: have to pay the right guy, and I don't necessarily

1065
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,360
Speaker 5: trust them to do that when their track record outside

1066
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 5: of John Fox in recent memory has been let's take

1067
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 5: the chance on the young offensive mind or the defensive mind.

1068
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 5: Let's take a chance on the coordinator that's ever been

1069
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 5: a head coach before.

1070
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1071
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 3: No, Yeah, I'm with you.

1072
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 2: I don't trust the Bears, but I do trust Caleb

1073
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,360
Speaker 2: can be a great quarterback.

1074
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:23,800
Speaker 3: But also with the right.

1075
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,240
Speaker 4: Fit, he has a lot of talent around him. Yeah,

1076
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 4: and that's going to help.

1077
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hope so, man.

1078
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 5: And we've seen a lot from Thomas Brown already, the

1079
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 5: new offensive play caller. He made things a lot easier

1080
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 5: on Caleb in that game against Green Bay. He made

1081
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 5: things a lot easier for this offens This offense looks

1082
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 5: a little bit more cohesive and looks like it's supposed

1083
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:45,400
Speaker 5: to within this system.

1084
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,800
Speaker 3: Do you think it's already better with the new offensive cornattion.

1085
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,600
Speaker 5: I can't say for sure because I need you to

1086
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 5: do it again now. It looked better against the Green

1087
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 5: Bay Packers, for sure. It looked light years better, which

1088
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 5: would consider how much.

1089
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 3: Trying to miss game. That's also crazy, and when you.

1090
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 5: Consider how much time Thomas Brown had to like turn

1091
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,720
Speaker 5: things around, and that nothing that they were game planning

1092
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:05,439
Speaker 5: for that week had anything to do with the Green

1093
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 5: Bay Packers and everything to do with just fixing what

1094
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,399
Speaker 5: was wrong with the Bears. Now you're going against another

1095
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 5: division opponent this week in the Minnesota Vikings. You're going

1096
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 5: against a really complex defense. Can you continue to evolve

1097
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 5: now that you've shown some things on tape of what

1098
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 5: you're like as the offensive play caller of the Chicago Bears,

1099
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,919
Speaker 5: can you evolve that now? Can you continue to learn?

1100
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,840
Speaker 5: Can you actually game plan for opponents?

1101
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1102
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,439
Speaker 4: That is the big question mark right now.

1103
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 5: But I feel better about it, and I don't think

1104
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 5: there's any question that the Bears did the right thing

1105
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,240
Speaker 5: by firing Shane Waldron.

1106
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 2: No, all right, let's move on to our Thursday snow game.

1107
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 2: That was just magical. That felt like like a movie.

1108
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 4: Why I fell in love.

1109
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 3: With literally watching it.

1110
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 2: It made the sun setting super early and the darkness.

1111
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 3: Living in the darkness early felt like everything felt right.

1112
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 3: You know. I wanted soup. I wanted soup, I made

1113
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 3: super I want, I want. I did a hot tea.

1114
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,279
Speaker 2: And sit back on the couch and watching the snow game.

1115
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 2: But the Steelers, let's talk about the Steelers. Do we

1116
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 2: trust the Steelers because it was a tough loss in

1117
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,800
Speaker 2: Cleveland on Thursday, and uh, George Pickens made a comment

1118
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,439
Speaker 2: after the game saying conditions played a huge, huge part

1119
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,960
Speaker 2: in today's game. I don't really think the Cleveland Browns

1120
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 2: are a good team. I think the conditions kind of

1121
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 2: save them today. I don't like weather excuses because everyone

1122
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: has to play in it. We know division games are

1123
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,920
Speaker 2: always wild. But also Mike Tomlin is now zero to

1124
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,840
Speaker 2: four in Cleveland on Thursday.

1125
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 3: Nights, Like it's just weird. It's such a weird thing.

1126
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:36,600
Speaker 3: But it's again that he has.

1127
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 4: It's a division thing.

1128
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 3: Anything can happen in a division division game.

1129
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 5: You're so familiar with these opponents even when they are

1130
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 5: you know they have like Jameis Winston. Yeah, but I

1131
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 5: think it was so funny to me. Okay, I worked

1132
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 5: with Jamis and Tampa.

1133
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,520
Speaker 2: Hilarious all the way up, Like if he plays he

1134
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:53,879
Speaker 2: hasn't played in snow, is he.

1135
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 3: Going to be able to do it?

1136
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 5: But like, I don't think anybody told Jamis that you

1137
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,759
Speaker 5: have to adjust for the snow. Because that man was

1138
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 5: slinging it despite the conditions and it honestly, it worked out.

1139
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 2: It's actually for the best, Like what you don't know,

1140
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 2: you don't know, and he just like kept playing it.

1141
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 5: Like I don't think that's a way to live, but

1142
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 5: like you, like you you should absolutely kind of adjust

1143
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 5: for conditions such as those, But it just so happened

1144
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 5: that it worked out for the Browns.

1145
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 2: The game has like won the game personalities his quotes

1146
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 2: like like everything as you said, just like taking the

1147
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,760
Speaker 2: chances that normally don't work.

1148
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 5: Don't yeah, normal, like exactly like things work regardless because

1149
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 5: like some of those receivers, there's no way that could really.

1150
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 2: Even see you didn't see anything like you literally was

1151
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 2: like that was wild. That went like the before and

1152
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 2: after photos of like before the game and during the

1153
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 2: game or And.

1154
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 5: I also think that the Browns were helped by the

1155
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,320
Speaker 5: fact that they know that their kicker isn't really good anyway,

1156
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 5: so like they were never really going to try any

1157
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 5: sort of even if the conditions hadn't been like that. Yeah,

1158
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 5: they weren't going to try a long field goal they

1159
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,399
Speaker 5: weren't good at like if they were in fourth and short,

1160
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 5: they were going for it.

1161
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:55,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1162
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 5: So like I think that combined with everything, it was

1163
00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 5: just kind of like the perfect storm for Cleveland. So

1164
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 5: I and I think I do trust the Steelers too.

1165
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,319
Speaker 2: I don't think that's that Thursday night loss is a

1166
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 2: reason to worry about the Steelers. That was Russ's first

1167
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 2: loss of the season. And he's looked good. You know,

1168
00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,840
Speaker 2: the defense has looked good. They're still top five in

1169
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:17,919
Speaker 2: points allowed, still top ten in yards allowed. I still

1170
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 2: trust Mike Tomlin. I think they have all the pieces

1171
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:25,839
Speaker 2: that they need to make it. Like, obviously they're looking

1172
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 2: good right now to get into the playoffs, but then

1173
00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:28,880
Speaker 2: also to kind of make.

1174
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 3: Some sort of run in the postseason.

1175
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 5: Well, you have to, like you have to take into

1176
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 5: account the track record that Mike Tomlin has.

1177
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 4: He's never had a losing season.

1178
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:40,839
Speaker 5: In Pittsburgh, and they squeak into the playoffs all the time,

1179
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 5: given the fact that they have such a good defense

1180
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,839
Speaker 5: that they can rely on. What's different about this team now?

1181
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 5: And I think what the real question is when you

1182
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 5: talk about trusting them is can they then win a

1183
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 5: playoff game. I don't think there's any question that they're

1184
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 5: going to make the playoffs?

1185
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, are they going? Are they good enough now?

1186
00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 5: With the offensive production that Russell Wilson now brings and

1187
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 5: the way to the connecting plus utilizing the ground game

1188
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 5: correctly like you have so many like Arthur Smith is

1189
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 5: evolving with this team based on Russell Wilsons skill sets.

1190
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 5: You now see Justin Field's getting involved in certain packages

1191
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 5: because the established order is in place, Like Russell Wilson

1192
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,399
Speaker 5: is definitely the starter, so now you can bring in

1193
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 5: Fields on some of these different packages that make it

1194
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,359
Speaker 5: really creative because you never know what he's getting hard

1195
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 5: for the opposing team really like you can streuss so

1196
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 5: like all of this. Now offensive production is something that

1197
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 5: we haven't been able to count on in Pittsburgh.

1198
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 4: Since Ben Roethlisberger.

1199
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 3: It's crazy.

1200
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 5: So now the question becomes do I trust them to

1201
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 5: actually go on a playoff run?

1202
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,040
Speaker 4: And I still think the answer.

1203
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,239
Speaker 3: Is yeah, yeah, no, same.

1204
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 2: I mean, they have a pretty tough like end of

1205
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 2: the season schedule coming up. They're at Bengals and Burrow

1206
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 2: has looked incredible all year despite the tough losses versus

1207
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 2: the Browns again, at Eagles, at Ravens Chiefs on Christmas.

1208
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 4: They're going through.

1209
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 2: They literally like this might be one of the toughest

1210
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 2: back ends.

1211
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:07,720
Speaker 4: It's second to only Chicago.

1212
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1213
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, this is absolutely insane. And I've

1214
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 2: gone back and forth with this team all year. I

1215
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 2: believe to Justin Fields, I did not believe in Russ

1216
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 2: then got proved wrong, which I love prove me wrong.

1217
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:18,720
Speaker 3: I love a comeback story.

1218
00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 2: They have all the corpieces to get it done, and

1219
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,399
Speaker 2: you have a future Hall of Fame coach in Mike

1220
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: Tomlin and.

1221
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 5: The fact that he's been able to put a lid

1222
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 5: on of so many players throughout the years, Like clearly

1223
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 5: George Pickens is a loose cannon, Like yeah, you think

1224
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 5: at the end of that game is like yeah, charging right, uh,

1225
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 5: And like you look back on some of the other

1226
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 5: players that they've had in Pittsburgh and the fact that

1227
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin has just a lid on all of this

1228
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:47,720
Speaker 5: for the most cars and then they go off somewhere

1229
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 5: else and then just it's catastrophic. Yeah, it's it's wild

1230
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 5: to me. Yep, he deserves Coach of the Year just

1231
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 5: for that.

1232
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 3: Is he top faith? He might?

1233
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 4: No, he's not.

1234
00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 5: I mean, I still believe that the Coach the Year

1235
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 5: is coming out of the NFC. Whether it's Dan Campbell,

1236
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:05,439
Speaker 5: whether it's Kevin O'Connell, whether it's Matt Lafleur, those guys.

1237
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 5: I mean, I think you can make a case for

1238
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 5: a couple of other guys too. Across the board. But

1239
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 5: I really do think that it's coming out of the

1240
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 5: NSC North because what those teams are doing. I mean

1241
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 5: that that division is dominating. Yeah it is, and like

1242
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 5: it's hungry. No, it's it's the best division in the

1243
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 5: league in football.

1244
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 2: Okay, so real quick, because we don't have a ton

1245
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 2: of time for these last two. But the forty nine Ers,

1246
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 2: the team that has been plagued with injuries, who now

1247
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 2: will not have the quarterback Brock Party or defensive end

1248
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 2: Nick Bosa this weekend. Unfortunately, the way their luck has

1249
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 2: gone this season, I don't trust the forty nine Ers.

1250
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 2: It just it's just not their year. And sometimes it's

1251
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,239
Speaker 2: a complete dumpsterer fire there. I think they might be

1252
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 2: the oldest roster in the NFL, and you kind of.

1253
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:48,520
Speaker 3: Forget that.

1254
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 4: Because of Kent Williams. They have so.

1255
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 2: Many elite players, but everybody is getting hit this year

1256
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 2: and sometimes that just happens.

1257
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,760
Speaker 4: I do not trust them. With Trent william can't play.

1258
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 4: I expect Track.

1259
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,839
Speaker 5: Williams to be able to play, but he's questionable coming

1260
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 5: into this game that they don't know he apparently is

1261
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:09,520
Speaker 5: a game time decision. If they lose this week which

1262
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:11,760
Speaker 5: I think is a probability at this point.

1263
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:13,399
Speaker 4: Then no, I'm out on the forty nine ers.

1264
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 5: And it's interesting though, because we've seen them be able

1265
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:17,919
Speaker 5: to come out of their bye week as we talked

1266
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 5: about this a couple of weeks ago, and just like

1267
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 5: run the table and they get so much better after

1268
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 5: their buys. But with this many injuries and not having

1269
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 5: Brock party, you're really going to see can Kyle Shanahan adjust? Yeah,

1270
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 5: And that's the question because he's always had these like

1271
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 5: Pro Bowl type players, multiple Pro Bowl players on his offense.

1272
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 5: And sure, the scheme is really fun and creative, and

1273
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 5: it again, half the league is now based on the

1274
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 5: system that he and McVeigh kind of run. But Shanahan

1275
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,560
Speaker 5: has always had the benefit of having these like Pro

1276
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 5: Bowl all Pro caliber players on his offense and multiple

1277
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:52,520
Speaker 5: of these guys.

1278
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 4: So, now, can you do it?

1279
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 5: When we've seen Matt Laflour be able to do it

1280
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,439
Speaker 5: when Malik Willis had to come in for a couple

1281
00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 5: of games and then in the middle of the game

1282
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 5: he adjusted wildly to what he was asking Jordan Love

1283
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 5: to do. Can Kyle Shanahan now do the same thing

1284
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,160
Speaker 5: with Brandon Allen, that's the question here. But you're now

1285
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 5: going onst the Green Bay team that, yes, barely got

1286
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 5: past the Chicago Bears, but the pressure was better. Jordan

1287
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 5: Love is getting more consistent reps, he's healthy. Finally, I

1288
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 5: just I don't I don't see this going well for

1289
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 5: the Niners.

1290
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 2: Okay, these are these last two are going to be

1291
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 2: like yes and no's because we got to go the

1292
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 2: Vikings because I think they're still kind of flying under

1293
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,760
Speaker 2: the radar. Yeah, I trust them. I trust them too.

1294
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 2: The Chargers, I trust them. I'm like, I'm I trust them.

1295
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 2: I'm on the hardball trained baby, I.

1296
00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,000
Speaker 5: Do, but I trust I do. But honestly, I think

1297
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 5: it has more to do with esse Mentor's defense. Again,

1298
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 5: we're not talking enough about them. They're average, They're not

1299
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,040
Speaker 5: allowing more than fifteen points.

1300
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 3: Do we trust Yeah? Yeah, yeah, Chargers and the defense

1301
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:56,640
Speaker 3: we trust. All Right, We're going to take a quick

1302
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,360
Speaker 3: break here, but when we come back, can you be

1303
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:00,280

Speaker 3: Well CARMEI today not today.

1316
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 2: This week the MLB Awards were announced and a huge

1317
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 2: congratulations to the unanimous MVPs Aaron Judge and show Heyo Tani,

1318
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 2: two absolute superstars in their prime.

1319
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 3: We're both voted unanimous MVP. Show Hey O Tani.

1320
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 2: Now before no one had ever won multiple MVPs unanimously,

1321
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 2: let alone three. He's also the first full time DH

1322
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,360
Speaker 2: to win MVP. He had his first fifty to fifty season.

1323
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 2: He started and founded the fifty to fifty Club, creating

1324
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,240
Speaker 2: and breaking his own records.

1325
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 3: He also joined a few other elite clubs.

1326
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 2: A sixth player to win MVP with two different teams,

1327
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 2: one of twelve players to have three plus MVPs. A

1328
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:20,080
Speaker 2: few of those other guys, Mike Trout, Pohols, a Rod Jodamaggio,

1329
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 2: Mickey Mannle, Barry Bonds, US seven. Another reason why it's

1330
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:25,440
Speaker 2: absolutely ridiculous that he is not in the Baseball Hall

1331
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 2: of Fame. That's a story for another day because I

1332
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 2: could take a whole hour to go off on how

1333
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 2: ridiculous that is. But Otani is changing the game, you guys.

1334
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 2: He's making him breaking his own records. He's a unicorn.

1335
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 2: He is the goat.

1336
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 3: Can you be the goat like when you're in the

1337
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 3: middle of your career?

1338
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I know he definitely is going

1339
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 2: to be eventually at one point he needs a couple

1340
00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 2: more titles, which I do believe now the Dodgers are

1341
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,960
Speaker 2: going to get a couple more in the next five years.

1342
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 3: I'm feeling strong about that, I'm feeling confident about that.

1343
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 4: I'm really excited to see him start pitching again.

1344
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,040
Speaker 5: Oh it's ough because there's still that little shred of

1345
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 5: doubt that, like after an injury like this, like is

1346
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 5: he going to be able to return.

1347
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 2: A second second? Tommy John that the non Tommy John.

1348
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 2: Tommy John, Uh, do you like?

1349
01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 5: Is he going to be able to really come back

1350
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 5: and be the player he was beforehand. But I think

1351
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 5: like MLB just has to be so excited for the

1352
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:16,640
Speaker 5: fact that now that show Hayes in the NL. Yes,

1353
01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 5: now you've got Judge in the AL. Like these two

1354
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 5: guys now just kind of going head to head.

1355
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 3: No, they're like getting back and forth.

1356
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 4: Like these are. This is like a golden age of baseball.

1357
01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:33,160
Speaker 3: It really is. It's really fun absolute superstars being.

1358
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 4: On like the most visible franchises.

1359
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 2: The franchise spend the most money, says that have the

1360
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:39,200
Speaker 2: biggest fan base, the biggest draw.

1361
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 3: It's the best thing that could happen to baseball.

1362
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 4: They spend the most money. They like they but the.

1363
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 3: Yankees used to. I think the Mets spend more money

1364
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 3: than the Yankees.

1365
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 5: Now both New York teams are spending a lot of them.

1366
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 5: I think they're both in the top five. I believe

1367
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 5: in payrolls. Yeah, as well as the Dodgers. I really

1368
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 5: love that you're still adding resources to around this guy

1369
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 5: to make sure that you're taking advantage of the window

1370
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:06,080
Speaker 5: that you have. But like just seeing like heavyweights, storied franchises,

1371
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 5: it's all he could ask for going head to head

1372
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:09,280
Speaker 5: I like MLB has to be.

1373
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:11,920
Speaker 2: I'm so and I hope everyone at home, if you're

1374
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 2: a fan of baseball, you understand how exciting this is

1375
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 2: to witness this kind of greatness at the same time together.

1376
01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:19,480
Speaker 2: And I think we're going to see a lot of

1377
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 2: the judge Otani winning these awards for the next handful.

1378
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 3: Of years, and exactly if they do, it's it's great

1379
01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:26,280
Speaker 3: for the game.

1380
01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:28,920
Speaker 2: But I also want to give a shout out to

1381
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 2: Paul Skeens also Workie of the Years both pitchers.

1382
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 4: Which was insane nineteen eighty one.

1383
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely insane. But Paul Skeens has had an absolute

1384
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 2: tear of a life over the last year and a half.

1385
01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 2: He won the College World Series, won College World Series MVP,

1386
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 2: drafted first overall. Right around that time, his relationship with

1387
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 2: Livy Dunne also went public. Called up to the majors

1388
01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:52,920
Speaker 2: just after ten months not a very common thing, posted

1389
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:54,959
Speaker 2: a one point nine to six ERA in his first

1390
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:58,400
Speaker 2: MLB season, named an All Star after just eleven starts,

1391
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:02,200
Speaker 2: name the All Star Star Picture, won n L Rookie

1392
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 2: of the Year, and was an NLCY Young finalist. That

1393
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 2: is insane And if you watched or have seen any

1394
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,280
Speaker 2: of the memes of his reaction when he won an

1395
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 2: OL Rookie of the Year.

1396
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 4: That's great.

1397
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 5: I mean it's it's just as much him and Levy,

1398
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:16,760
Speaker 5: because Livy is like Livy's the excited.

1399
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:18,560
Speaker 2: One, freaked out, she had a great time, and he

1400
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 2: was stone cold honestly, honestly.

1401
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 5: More than a stone cold face. I think it was

1402
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:25,920
Speaker 5: just like he's just awkward and doesn't want to be

1403
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 5: the center of attention like that, like he just didn't know.

1404
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 3: What to do with there was like how it feels

1405
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:30,160
Speaker 3: like great?

1406
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, like the interview reacted too.

1407
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,440
Speaker 5: He's not overly like gregarious any of his interviews and

1408
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:39,680
Speaker 5: stuff like that. He's just kind of like uncomfortable with

1409
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 5: all of the attention, which is really funny given how

1410
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 5: good at baseball he is. Yeah, yeah, I mean there's

1411
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 5: no surprise there either. I think that that probably played

1412
01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 5: into it too, given like he was what the first

1413
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:50,360
Speaker 5: rookie pitcher to start the All Star Game since the

1414
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:56,240
Speaker 5: Diagonomo in nineteen ninety five. That like, after a tear

1415
01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 5: like all of that, you can't be surprised that you

1416
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:00,520
Speaker 5: end up with Rookie of the Year.

1417
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:04,880
Speaker 2: I just I mean it's it's it's humble, it's hilarious,

1418
01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:06,680
Speaker 2: but also like what a stud?

1419
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:08,400
Speaker 3: I know what a stud?

1420
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 4: It's so cool, and baby, I'm all on that train

1421
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:13,280
Speaker 4: and put.

1422
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 2: Two and two together there for you won the national

1423
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:16,960
Speaker 2: championship with LS.

1424
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:21,400
Speaker 3: Okay, okay with LS. Yes, you adopted team.

1425
01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:22,160
Speaker 4: My new adopted team.

1426
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,680
Speaker 5: My fiance went to the College World Series and went

1427
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,680
Speaker 5: to a bar. The bar I forget how I'm gonna

1428
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 5: blank on the name and he's gonna kill me. There's

1429
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:33,320
Speaker 5: a bar there that does jello shots for each team

1430
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 5: until you can buy jello shots each Like Lsu blew

1431
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 5: everyone out of the water, everyone even before the owner

1432

1518
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:33,360
Speaker 9: Hey, how are you guys?

1519
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 2: We're doing Gray and what a week it's been for

1520
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:37,560
Speaker 2: your quarterback.

1521
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 3: Bonix was just named.

1522
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:42,040
Speaker 2: The AFC Offensive Player of the Week and Rookie of

1523
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,960
Speaker 2: the Week for the second consecutive week. How have you

1524
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,640
Speaker 2: seen bo grow as a player and a leader over

1525
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 2: his first eleven weeks in the league.

1526
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:52,680
Speaker 9: I mean he went for the hat trick really with

1527
01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:55,120
Speaker 9: the accolades, also one Fedeggs around an air Player of

1528
01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 9: the Week. I mean, he just put on such a

1529
01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,480
Speaker 9: good performance against the Falcons, and I think seeing him

1530
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,600
Speaker 9: from week one to now, it's it's a talent that

1531
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 9: was always there. I mean, even in that first you

1532
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 9: know game in Seattle where the Broncos lost, he did

1533
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,440
Speaker 9: not waiver and he still went on, you know, driving

1534
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,280
Speaker 9: down the fields and try to get the win towards

1535
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 9: the end. And that kind of attitude and that kind

1536
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:18,040
Speaker 9: of talent continued to just trickle down and slowly and

1537
01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,880
Speaker 9: now he's kind of grown and more. And most of

1538
01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:22,280
Speaker 9: the guys on the team had said like, there are

1539
01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 9: no more rookies on this team. And even when you

1540
01:08:24,560 --> 01:08:27,080
Speaker 9: hear Botok, it's really funny. He had a he was

1541
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 9: talking in the media and he was just like, yeah,

1542
01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:30,200
Speaker 9: you know, really got to help out these young guys,

1543
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,840
Speaker 9: and it's like, who you're a young guy. You are

1544
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 9: one of the young guys. So but just like you know,

1545
01:08:35,320 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 9: his poison, the way he's been able to command his

1546
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,280
Speaker 9: bocker room has really added, I think to his success

1547
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 9: and the way that he's been playing. It was just

1548
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 9: about time that he kind of got over the hump

1549
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 9: and really kind of show what he can do. And

1550
01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 9: I think it started with that game in Kansas City

1551
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:50,599
Speaker 9: in particular.

1552
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 5: I think it's so funny though, because he was probably

1553
01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 5: he was used to being one of the old guys

1554
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 5: in college, given how much he played in college, and

1555
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:58,720
Speaker 5: then he comes here and he's like, yeah, I'm not

1556
01:08:58,760 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 5: a rookie anymore.

1557
01:08:59,520 --> 01:08:59,920
Speaker 4: I played that.

1558
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:01,600
Speaker 5: It's like way too many snaps in college to be

1559
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 5: a rookie. I think it's really interesting though, to see

1560
01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 5: kind of how this offense is now opening up with

1561
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:10,719
Speaker 5: Bonix because Sean Payton seems to trust him a little

1562
01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 5: bit more.

1563
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 4: I mean, the offensive production is now there.

1564
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,640
Speaker 5: I mean he's honestly, from the very beginning he was

1565
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 5: two hundred two hundred yards two hundred fifty yards a game,

1566
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 5: but the touchdown scoring production wasn't quite there. Now you

1567
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:26,560
Speaker 5: see him go off against the Falcons with four touchdowns?

1568
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,600
Speaker 5: What have you seen between him and Sean Payton that

1569
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:32,080
Speaker 5: suggests that Sean is now kind of opening things up

1570
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 5: for bo because he trusts him.

1571
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think the trust was always there. I think

1572
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,560
Speaker 9: since the day that he drafted him. Their relationship is

1573
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 9: one of those where you it's such a good balance, right,

1574
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 9: like even with BA winning on accolades, and it was

1575
01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:48,640
Speaker 9: funny Champagne said like, you know, let's not sense, you

1576
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:51,559
Speaker 9: can't just yet. And I mean it's it's such a

1577
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,439
Speaker 9: good refreshing thing because you don't want the rookie, like

1578
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,160
Speaker 9: any rookie in particular, to get to ahead of itself

1579
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:58,920
Speaker 9: and the moment get bigger than them and they kind

1580
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,400
Speaker 9: of lose track of what the folks and they compliment

1581
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,519
Speaker 9: each other so well and just kind of seeing them

1582
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 9: on the sideline and just seeing how they're able to

1583
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,640
Speaker 9: really kind of produce and just let Bo be Bo.

1584
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 9: And I think that's one of the things that Sean

1585
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,600
Speaker 9: Payne has done a great job of of just understanding

1586
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,280
Speaker 9: the areas that he needs to improve and giving those

1587
01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:20,080
Speaker 9: to him and Bo being open to those areas. And

1588
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 9: I think with Bo, you know, he really showed off

1589
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 9: his rushing attack, right and what he can do with

1590
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:26,760
Speaker 9: his legs in the first half of the season. He's

1591
01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:28,559
Speaker 9: showing off what he can do with his arm in

1592
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 9: the second half of the season. And he had mentioned like,

1593
01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 9: you know, I don't want to be known as a

1594
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,720
Speaker 9: rushing quarterback, right right, That's not what I want to

1595
01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:36,800
Speaker 9: be known for. And for him to really kind of

1596
01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 9: be able to distribute the ball more He's hitting a

1597
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 9: lot of his targets.

1598
01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:41,960
Speaker 8: Lil Jo and Humphreys had a touchdown.

1599
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,880
Speaker 9: Last week toward Franklin Marvin Mins. There were four from

1600
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,280
Speaker 9: four in the red zone in week eleven, And I

1601
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 9: think it's just his way of going out to performing.

1602
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:54,040
Speaker 9: You know, winning is obviously the way to continue, especially

1603
01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 9: with the Broncos and the way they've had a drop

1604
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,040
Speaker 9: with the playoffs the last few years, and so for

1605
01:10:58,120 --> 01:10:59,759
Speaker 9: him to kind of come in and have an outing

1606
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:02,720
Speaker 9: and I just think you trust in what Champagne is

1607
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,480
Speaker 9: doing here with the Broncos.

1608
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 5: I want to talk a little bit more about, you

1609
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,559
Speaker 5: know what you have to give another question on bo.

1610
01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 3: Was that memes that you what last one?

1611
01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 4: Oh? I what is? Sorry? Yeah you had the last question.

1612
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 5: I wanted to talk about the Broncos defense because I

1613
01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:27,200
Speaker 5: just feel like they are not getting enough.

1614
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,000
Speaker 9: They beat all the flowers, all the flowers, let it

1615
01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:31,679
Speaker 9: rain down.

1616
01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 3: The second points allowed, third in yards allowed.

1617
01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:37,720
Speaker 5: Like it's it's wild, especially because like that's kind of

1618
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,720
Speaker 5: how they, uh they they got through kind of you know,

1619
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:42,680
Speaker 5: the early stages of what this offense is going to

1620
01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 5: look like.

1621
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:47,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, no, yeah, this this defense has been incredible and

1622
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 9: I think it's a big hat tip to Van Slim.

1623
01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,040
Speaker 8: Was that he's been able to do with the pieces

1624
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:52,680
Speaker 8: that they have here.

1625
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:55,720
Speaker 9: They obviously extended Jonathan Cooper not too long ago, and

1626
01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 9: just like their front defensive front has just been so

1627
01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 9: impressive with Nick Bonito coming into his own this season,

1628
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:03,720
Speaker 9: back Aallen really getting the recognition that he needs. And

1629
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,320
Speaker 9: again those guys JFM playing from the Jets, you know,

1630
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 9: like I said, Cooper and it's just you have all

1631
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 9: these guys and the way that they're jelling together is

1632
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:14,240
Speaker 9: just so impressive. I mean, the defense has the most

1633
01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:16,639
Speaker 9: facts in the NFL so far with thirty nine there,

1634
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:19,920
Speaker 9: they rank about three. They have about three point six

1635
01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,120
Speaker 9: sacks per game and that puts them on pace to

1636
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:24,639
Speaker 9: break a franchise record that was fit in nineteen eighty

1637
01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,320
Speaker 9: four that stands at fifty seven. So they're at thirty

1638
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 9: nine right now, and you know they're going against the

1639
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 9: Raiders that are tied for fifth and a lot of

1640
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:34,639
Speaker 9: the most sacks of season. So the fact that they're

1641
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:36,920
Speaker 9: going against the Raiders line that has allowed the six

1642
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 9: highest quarterback pressure percentage, it's gonna fare well with them

1643
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 9: because the way they've been able to really get.

1644
01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:42,080
Speaker 8: After the quarterbacks.

1645
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:44,600
Speaker 9: I mean every quarterback from the Patrick Mahomes to the.

1646
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:45,879
Speaker 8: Bright songs of this league.

1647
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:48,640
Speaker 9: They don't you know, they take no prisoner. They make

1648
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 9: sure that they let it know that they're going to

1649
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:52,599
Speaker 9: put out there, go out and put on the show.

1650
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 2: I'm happy for Oh, here we go and I'm back.

1651
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it's been fun to watch, and I'm happy

1652
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:02,840
Speaker 2: for Sean Payton because he definitely, you know, he bet

1653
01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 2: it all on Boonix and kind of the growth that

1654
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 2: we've seen from BO so far this season, do you

1655
01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:11,040
Speaker 2: think he has a real chance to challenge Jane Daniels

1656
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 2: now that he really hasn't been the same since as

1657
01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:15,160
Speaker 2: rib injury for Offensive Rookie.

1658
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 8: Of the Year. Yeah, I think you have anyone in

1659
01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:18,800
Speaker 8: the locker room.

1660
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:20,680
Speaker 9: You know, they have all the face in BO, from

1661
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 9: the defensive guys, offensive guys. You know, It's funny after

1662
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 9: the win in Atlanta, p J lock had mentioned he how.

1663
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 8: Much he believes in BO, and he's like.

1664
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:30,639
Speaker 9: And I hope he wins Offensive Rookie again, and then

1665
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 9: Meg you want it right? So yeah, I think I

1666
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 9: think it's fair to say like he's definitely putting his

1667
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:38,240
Speaker 9: name in the race, and I think it's well deserving

1668
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:39,640
Speaker 9: for him to put his name in the race. And

1669
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:41,400
Speaker 9: that doesn't take anyway from Dad and Daniels at all,

1670
01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:43,800
Speaker 9: But I think when you look at what this team

1671
01:13:43,840 --> 01:13:46,479
Speaker 9: has been able to do with the defensive side, and

1672
01:13:46,479 --> 01:13:48,120
Speaker 9: then now you're looking what bo was able to do

1673
01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:50,320
Speaker 9: really in the sick of the season. I mean, I

1674
01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:53,439
Speaker 9: think if the Broncos continue on this pace and you know,

1675
01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:55,880
Speaker 9: get to the postseason, actually there's no real debate there

1676
01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 9: of who should be Rookie of the Year.

1677
01:13:57,520 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 2: Lisa, thank you so much for joining us, and I'm

1678
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:00,599
Speaker 2: so happy for you have been having like the best

1679
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,720
Speaker 2: time ever first season, Yeah I have.

1680
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 9: I have. I experienced my first know out here. That

1681
01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:08,200
Speaker 9: was a lot of fun. I've never woken up to

1682
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:15,600
Speaker 9: the snow before. It's one of those things. But yeah, no,

1683
01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:18,080
Speaker 9: seeing this team grow, honestly has been fun. Obviously, I

1684
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,400
Speaker 9: was a Broncos fan growing up, and so that fandom

1685
01:14:21,439 --> 01:14:23,880
Speaker 9: mixed with now my professionalism of just covering this team,

1686
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 9: it's been a lot of fun to just watch. And

1687
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 9: obviously I've been a big fan of Champain for many years,

1688
01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 9: and so seeing his way of doing things and what

1689
01:14:31,320 --> 01:14:32,640
Speaker 9: he's been able to do with this team and the

1690
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:35,400
Speaker 9: culture he's building with the Broncos is just it's really

1691
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,040
Speaker 9: cool to see from outside looking in and from the

1692
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:37,760
Speaker 9: inside looking out.

1693
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:40,200
Speaker 2: Well, it's been fun to follow you. Congratulations on everything

01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,840
Speaker 10: one week. We were on to the next. Let's go

1715
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:48,000
Speaker 10: for a more happier atmosphere and it's a new dawn.

1716
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:49,880
Speaker 4: Let's go with game one.

1717
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:54,080
Speaker 10: We have the forty nine ers taking on the Packers,

1718
01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:58,840
Speaker 10: who are at home and five and a half point favorites. Yeah,

1719
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:01,719
Speaker 10: the leader in the clubhouse, miss Curry, what are we doing?

1720
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,680
Speaker 2: This is an easy pick for me, especially with the

1721
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:06,759
Speaker 2: forty nine ers now without brock Perty and Nick Bosa.

1722
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:10,280
Speaker 2: They have been plagued with injuries this season and just

1723
01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,920
Speaker 2: have not been able to recover. And Jordan Love has

1724
01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:15,559
Speaker 2: a chip on his shoulder with San Francisco they were

1725
01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,760
Speaker 2: the team that knocked him out the last year off.

1726
01:16:18,840 --> 01:16:20,280
Speaker 3: The Packers are going to be hungry for this game.

1727
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:21,200
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Packers.

1728
01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm taking the Packers, who they Their biggest issue

1729
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:27,640
Speaker 5: on defense, especially had been they haven't been able to

1730
01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 5: get any pressure. They got three sacks on Kayleb Williams

1731
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,920
Speaker 5: last week. You could see in kind of them getting

1732
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 5: better at that after their bye week, so I fully

1733
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 5: expect them to bring it against a Niners offensive line

1734
01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 5: that could be without Trent Williams. I'm taking the Packers.

1735
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,120
Speaker 5: I'm taking them at the floor, taking Jordan Love at home.

1736
01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:47,040
Speaker 10: Well, speaking of the NFC North and part one of

1737
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 10: my two favorite teams, we have my Minnesota Vikings on

1738
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:54,160
Speaker 10: the road three and a half point favorites at Carmen.

1739
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:56,639
Speaker 4: Your Chicago Bears, they're not fine.

1740
01:16:56,800 --> 01:17:02,920
Speaker 5: Don't call them hometown in your hometown Chicago Bears. And

1741
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:05,439
Speaker 5: you know what, because I adore the Vikings, I adore

1742
01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:07,679
Speaker 5: the Packers. I adore the Lions above all else. Right now,

1743
01:17:08,200 --> 01:17:11,040
Speaker 5: you adore the North. I do I stand the North.

1744
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:13,760
Speaker 5: I not that you want to hear this, Patrick, I

1745
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:17,599
Speaker 5: know it's fine. I might be picking a weird one

1746
01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 5: and I might be going with the Bears.

1747
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:20,839
Speaker 4: I mean, I am.

1748
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:25,320
Speaker 5: Dang why they were so close against the Packers? Okay,

1749
01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:27,200
Speaker 5: And I feel like this is kind of like the

1750
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:29,400
Speaker 5: pressures off. They're playing with house money this point. They

1751
01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:32,160
Speaker 5: know that their record doesn't matter. At this point, you

1752
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 5: just need Kaleb Williams to get better. And actually, for

1753
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:38,840
Speaker 5: one reason and one reason only, Kaila Williams was actually really.

1754
01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:39,960
Speaker 4: Good against the Blitz last week.

1755
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, eight of ten eighty seven yards eight completions, gaining

1756
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:45,519
Speaker 5: a first town when the Packers blitzed him.

1757
01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 4: So what does Brian Flores love to do? He loves

1758
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:50,439
Speaker 4: to blitz. I don't know.

1759
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:53,120
Speaker 5: I'm not going to be surprised that the Vikings obviously

1760
01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:56,200
Speaker 5: pulling out. They're the favored, you know, but I just

1761
01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:58,519
Speaker 5: I think the Bears have a little bit of fight

1762
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:00,479
Speaker 5: left in them. They have some pride on the line.

1763
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,760
Speaker 5: I could see the Bears winning list. I'm gonna take them.

1764
01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:04,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we as we know, Division games are

1765
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:08,240
Speaker 2: always weird and really are a toss up, and as

1766
01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:11,040
Speaker 2: you said, the Bears were so close that that could

1767
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:14,240
Speaker 2: give him that extra motivation, and that also that confidence

1768
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 2: that they can hang.

1769
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:18,040
Speaker 5: Like Brown is going to be a good play caller.

1770
01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:19,800
Speaker 5: We'll see, I could I could eat my words later,

1771
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:20,280
Speaker 5: but we'll see.

1772
01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:21,800
Speaker 2: But I'm going to take the Vikings. They've won six

1773
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 2: of the last eight meetings, and I did. They're all

1774
01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:26,280
Speaker 2: around better team, so I think they take advantage of they.

1775
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:27,280
Speaker 4: Are all right.

1776
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:32,160
Speaker 10: Well, Alex, thank you, and Carmen, it's okay, I forgive you.

1777
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:33,120
Speaker 1: We'll see.

1778
01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 4: I'm not actually to be right here, but well we'll see. Well,

1779
01:18:36,840 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 4: the chance. Speaking of other teams we will see about.

1780
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:43,599
Speaker 10: We have the Philadelphia Eagles at on the road two

1781
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:48,040
Speaker 10: and a half one favorites, taking on the Los Angeles Rams.

1782
01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 4: Rams are home, Alex, what are we filming?

1783
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:52,320
Speaker 3: I've wanted to go back and forth between this.

1784
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 2: I almost like I'm kicking myself that I don't think

1785
01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:58,880
Speaker 2: I am changing it. It's going to be a really

1786
01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 2: good game, but the Eagles of one sick straight. I know,

1787
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:02,960
Speaker 2: Rams are four in one of the last five games,

1788
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 2: and I want to take the Rams just because, like

1789
01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:05,800
Speaker 2: you know, homie is home team.

1790
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:07,360
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna go with the Eagles.

1791
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 4: I'm taking the Rams.

1792
01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:09,240
Speaker 8: Damn.

1793
01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 4: I don't fully trust the Eagles. I just don't.

1794
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:17,000
Speaker 5: I don't know, and they're flying across the countries. Stuff

1795
01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:20,280
Speaker 5: gets weird. I don't know, I don't know. I'm I

1796
01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 5: base that on really nothing because the Eagles are the

1797
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:24,320
Speaker 5: better team, but I just I'm gonna.

1798
01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:24,679
Speaker 4: Take the Rams.

1799
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:26,960
Speaker 10: Well, well speaking, we're gonna stay in the NFC West

1800
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,559
Speaker 10: on this one, Carmen, because we have the Cardinals who

1801
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,639
Speaker 10: are on the road taking on my part two favorite

1802
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 10: teams in the NFL, my Seattle Seahawks are one point

1803
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:38,920
Speaker 10: favorites on the road.

1804
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 4: Carmen taken away. Yeah, I'm taking the Seahawks.

1805
01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm also taking the Seahawks.

1806
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 2: I think also because they just went through the crazy

1807
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:46,960
Speaker 2: week together with the storm, and they talked about how

1808
01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 2: it brought them closer together.

1809
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:49,280
Speaker 3: All that job I liked.

1810
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:52,160
Speaker 5: I like the Seahawks. Put this on a terror. He's

1811
01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:53,840
Speaker 5: done so well overall this year.

1812
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:56,040
Speaker 4: All right, final game.

1813
01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,080
Speaker 10: We have the Ravens two and a half point favorites

1814
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:00,080
Speaker 10: on the road, taking on the Charger.

1815
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:02,200
Speaker 4: Alex, go for it.

1816
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 2: This is the horrible uh, both really strong running games.

1817
01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:06,760
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1818
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:09,320
Speaker 2: This is another one. I just kind of changed last minute.

1819
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:12,960
Speaker 2: Oh man, I'm even kicking myself. I'm going with the Chargers.

1820
01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 4: I'm going with the Ravens.

1821
01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:17,559
Speaker 3: Okay, God, trust a little bit more.

1822
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:17,920
Speaker 8: I don't know.

1823
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:18,680
Speaker 4: We'll see all right.

1824
01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:20,800
Speaker 2: Thanks for spending your Saturday afternoon with us. We'll see

1825
01:20:20,800 --> 01:20:22,280
Speaker 2: you next week, same time, same place,
