Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's our one on this Tuesday, Dan and
Speaker 1: the Danet's Dan Patrick Show busy show, a lot to
Speaker 1: talk about. Lewis Riddick put down his headset from Monday
Speaker 1: Night Football. He'll join us in about twenty minutes from now.
Speaker 1: We'll check in with the former UCLA head coach, Rick
Speaker 1: Newhis will get his thoughts on what's going on at
Speaker 1: USC as. USC is back in the market for a
Speaker 1: head coach as Clay Hilton was shown the door. He
Speaker 1: was fired yesterday eight seven seven three d P Show
Speaker 1: Email ADDRESSDP at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at
Speaker 1: DP show. We say good morning to our streaming partner, Peacock.
Speaker 1: Download the app watch for free all three hours in
Speaker 1: our radio affiliates around the country, Fox Sports Radio, iHeartRadio
Speaker 1: supporting this broadcast. We all know the famous yogiism it's
Speaker 1: not over till it's over. There was another dramatic example
Speaker 1: of that last night. The Raiders appeared to have a
Speaker 1: game winning touchdown and overtime Las Vegas fans went crazy,
Speaker 1: Players were hugging, looked like the game was over. The
Speaker 1: public address announcer came on reminding everybody that Bryan Edwards
Speaker 1: TV was under review and the game wasn't over. Turns out,
Speaker 1: the game wasn't over. No big deal. First and goal,
Speaker 1: one yard line. All you gotta do is punch it
Speaker 1: in game winning score, and then there's a false start
Speaker 1: and then the worst possible scenario unfolded. Derek Carr threw
Speaker 1: a fastball to Willie Snead, couldn't handle it. Ravens intercepted
Speaker 1: the deflection. Baltimore had a second life. Lamar Jackson fumbled again.
Speaker 1: The Raiders already in field goal position. Time to end it,
Speaker 1: but Oakland couldn't find its kicker, Daniel Carlson. They had
Speaker 1: a delay of game penalty, no longer in range for
Speaker 1: an easy field goal. Derek car comes back out again,
Speaker 1: throws up a balloon in the air for a thirty
Speaker 1: one yard touchdown. Is a Jones game over? This time
Speaker 1: it's for you. Those last ten minutes it was exhausting.
Speaker 1: First three quarters were okay, last fifteen minutes it's like, wow,
Speaker 1: how is this going to end? But Derek Carr directed
Speaker 1: three game tying drives in the fourth quarter before throwing
Speaker 1: that touchdown. The thirty one yarder He threw four four
Speaker 1: thirty five. I don't know if he had a great
Speaker 1: game or not. It's it's weird. When you're watching, you're going, okay,
Speaker 1: that's a lot of yards. Okay, game winning touchdown. But
Speaker 1: I don't know if he had a great game or not.
Speaker 1: Now it's better than losing. But still, if you're a
Speaker 1: Raiders fan, you're gonna go, hey, we got the win.
Speaker 1: But I don't know if you go, hey, we got
Speaker 1: the win and I feel great about this team now,
Speaker 1: if you're the Ravens, you lost, and I don't know
Speaker 1: if you look at this and go, yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: silver lining here because Lamar Jackson had three fumbles last night.
Speaker 1: It was one of those games. And we love to
Speaker 1: have a referendum after a game where we go, okay,
Speaker 1: I know exactly what this team is all about. Like,
Speaker 1: if I'm a Browns fan, I still feel pretty good
Speaker 1: about a loss in Kansas City. Now, if I'm a
Speaker 1: Kansas City fan, I might go lee, we couldn't put
Speaker 1: away the Browns at a home first time we've had
Speaker 1: fans in here and over a year. If I'm a
Speaker 1: Packers fan, I feel awful, but I have to be patient.
Speaker 1: If I'm a Saints fan. Are you all in on Jamis?
Speaker 1: And you can expect this weekend and week out. That's
Speaker 1: why when we have that game, won you go, I
Speaker 1: think I got this figured out. Like if I'm a
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay fan, I'm like, hey, I like, all right,
Speaker 1: we're good. As long as we stay healthy, we're good bears.
Speaker 1: They're to going. It doesn't matter. Just wait till we
Speaker 1: get justin fields in here. You know the Niners. You
Speaker 1: might go, we looked really good, but we allowed Detroit
Speaker 1: to come back. So you have these moral victories. You
Speaker 1: have a loss that can be a good loss. You
Speaker 1: can have a win that might not be a great win,
Speaker 1: but that certainly was entertaining last night. Derek Carr's yardage
Speaker 1: total the most ever by a Raider in week one,
Speaker 1: third most by a Raider quarterback all time. Car also
Speaker 1: holds the two other spots on that list. Mccleve, and
Speaker 1: you got a pull question for us today. This program
Speaker 1: brought to you by the great folks Ad Dollars Shaved
Speaker 1: Club Dollar Shave Club upgrade to the Dollar Shaved Club
Speaker 1: six blade razor for a noticeably smooth shave thanks to
Speaker 1: their six precision cut stainless Deel blades. Find it in
Speaker 1: store online, Dollars Shave Club, Dollar Shave Club dot com,
Speaker 1: mclove and you got a pull question. Okay, do you
Speaker 1: want to start negative or very negative? Yeah, let's star it.
Speaker 1: Do you think Lamar Jackson will win a Super Bowl
Speaker 1: in Baltimore? Kind of the Are they headed in the
Speaker 1: right direction? I don't know. He's so much fun to watch.
Speaker 1: And I remember when you know, we wondered if he
Speaker 1: could play starting quarterback. Analysts wondered if he could, and
Speaker 1: I was firm on him being able to play. But
Speaker 1: I watched a lot of him in college. Well, in
Speaker 1: the NFL, you're still seeing Lamar Jackson make great plays.
Speaker 1: I just think that I can't have him make all
Speaker 1: the plays. He has a better chance of winning MVP
Speaker 1: this year because it feels like they don't have anybody now.
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins, you know, Hollywood Brown Andrews, like you have
Speaker 1: some receivers there, but no running game. He leads them
Speaker 1: in passing and running. It's he's got to be a
Speaker 1: better passer to take the pressure off him trying to
Speaker 1: make something happen running. I just need those design plays
Speaker 1: for him and we'll talk to Lewis Riddick, former defensive back.
Speaker 1: I know he's young, he's twenty four. Well, he's going
Speaker 1: to eventually start to slow down, and that means there's
Speaker 1: a greater emphasis on what he does in the pocket.
Speaker 1: And I'm not asking him to do wonders in the pocket.
Speaker 1: I'm just having I want to take pressure off him
Speaker 1: having to use his legs and I don't know when
Speaker 1: that happens, but he can have those gynamic runs, but
Speaker 1: you just can't have those fumbles and with no running
Speaker 1: backs there because I thought they were going to win
Speaker 1: that game. But you know, I'll give credit to the Raiders.
Speaker 1: They did what they needed to do when they needed
Speaker 1: to do it. But if they win, it's because Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1: If they lose, it's sort of because of Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1: And I don't want to have that Brett Farve type
Speaker 1: situation because that was the case with Farv for a
Speaker 1: few years, where he could win it and he could
Speaker 1: lose it. He could throw you five touchdowns or five interceptions.
Speaker 1: With Mark Jackson, you're not sure exactly what you're going
Speaker 1: to get, and the fumbles and he says, well, I
Speaker 1: gotta put two hands on the ball. Okay, but it
Speaker 1: shouldn't take you fumbling to realize you got to put
Speaker 1: two hands on the ball. But he's got a great
Speaker 1: coach and they're great at drafting. I just think that
Speaker 1: you got Mahomes is always going to be there and
Speaker 1: the Browns are good. I'm gonna say, no, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't think he does. I mean, I hate to
Speaker 1: do that at somebody twenty four who's won an MVP.
Speaker 1: But I got Mahomes is still there, like I got
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's still in the league. And I would say
Speaker 1: probably not because I think Cleveland's better than Baltimore. Yeah,
Speaker 1: mclub does the Ravens feel bit steak bitt And I
Speaker 1: know they've had these injuries this year, but they're dead
Speaker 1: like their ninth string running back, they'd lose. They're great
Speaker 1: defenders everything, like Judon's amazing for the Patriots. He was
Speaker 1: there last year, as Narius Smith is a pro bowler.
Speaker 1: They keep losing everybody like, who are these guys? But
Speaker 1: they're great at drafting. I mean they really are. They
Speaker 1: as good as anybody, if not better than everybody. Yeah,
Speaker 1: poll it just shows you don't need an alpha as
Speaker 1: a running back as a team most a lot because
Speaker 1: of Lamar Jackson. They ran for one hundred and niney
Speaker 1: yards and five point six yards to carry Tyson Williams,
Speaker 1: he's you know, from like a one double a school
Speaker 1: ran for seven yards to carry. Yeah, what are the
Speaker 1: other pool questions you have to? Okay, we haven't really
Speaker 1: talked about the Manning broadcast yet. And why don't they
Speaker 1: call it Manning Night Football? Oh so we have Monday
Speaker 1: night football, just call it Manning Night Football. And then
Speaker 1: we can work in all the Manning so Archie could
Speaker 1: come in and uh, you know the mom Olivia and
Speaker 1: then Coopa and then arch Cooper's son, the next generation.
Speaker 1: It's not like a recruiting violation though, yeah probably Well no,
Speaker 1: it could be ni own name, image and likeness. We're
Speaker 1: gonna hey you to be on Manning Night Football. Yeah. See,
Speaker 1: there's barely enough room in there for two Mannings, let
Speaker 1: alone and in the whole family. Hayton takes up a
Speaker 1: lot of space. Hayton is exhausting. It takes up a
Speaker 1: lot of air. He is exhausting because Peyton will just
Speaker 1: slump down in his chair and he's like he's so disappointed.
Speaker 1: He's upset. Oh man, why would he throw that ball? Ali? Why?
Speaker 1: Oh man? It was so refreshing to see somebody be
Speaker 1: so honest and like not hide their disdain at all
Speaker 1: for what's happening. Like that is a terrible play. Why
Speaker 1: would you do that? Wow? Yeah, I thought it was good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And you know, we love Charles Barkley. I just didn't
Speaker 1: need Barkley on there last night. I would have had
Speaker 1: it clean with the Mannings, that's all. And ray lewis
Speaker 1: stopped by, which is fine, but you know, let's establish
Speaker 1: the Mannings and then you bring in the accouterments. Yeah. See.
Speaker 1: I don't know how many people were able to stay
Speaker 1: for it, but Russell Wilson was probably the best part
Speaker 1: of the whole broadcast. He was phenomenal. They had him
Speaker 1: for the fourth quarter and then he stayed through overtime,
Speaker 1: which I don't think he was supposed to do, but
Speaker 1: he was awesome in those moments, taking you like right
Speaker 1: into the play and say, oh no, you need to
Speaker 1: what they're going to run it out this way? Because
Speaker 1: he should have had a conversation with his kicker or
Speaker 1: ready to find out which hash he wants it on.
Speaker 1: So they've already worked that out. All of this stuff
Speaker 1: was really good, and that's what you want. You want
Speaker 1: just a little and you have so much more time
Speaker 1: now because you don't have to be married to the
Speaker 1: play by play. You can have a conversation while you're
Speaker 1: watching it, and then if you want to jump in
Speaker 1: on a play you can, or you could tell the
Speaker 1: story about something else. Whereas if you're doing a game,
Speaker 1: the analyst has, you know, ten seconds to get in
Speaker 1: and then get out, fifteen seconds here, maybe a little
Speaker 1: bit more time to tell a quick story. With the Mannings,
Speaker 1: it's just like, let's just talk. Let's just have a
Speaker 1: conversation here. Yeah, point, I think it's genius. You got
Speaker 1: the Mannings, which you had to pay a lot. I'm
Speaker 1: sure to get the Mannings to this broadcast. But you
Speaker 1: got Charles Barkley for an hour, you got Ray Lewis
Speaker 1: for half an hour, Travis Kelsey for half an hour,
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson without paying any of them. Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: all just gonna stop buy and then other athletes will
Speaker 1: keep stopping by. It's like a whole new broadcast without
Speaker 1: the cost. How about the most overrated Week one performance
Speaker 1: by a quarterback? Derek Carr. Jamis Winston was seeing the
Speaker 1: anti carist from way, Derek Carr, not David. I don't
Speaker 1: think you don't like cars. Yeah, well no, you like
Speaker 1: David Car Yeah, MC Jameis Winson. Oh he had like
Speaker 1: ninety yards, but that's what I'm saying. He threw five
Speaker 1: touchdowns for fifteen yards. He had one hunt break. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know. I'm just throwing it out there, just conversation.
Speaker 1: They're gonna throw a parade for Jamis Winson on Monday, yes,
Speaker 1: And who are all these people that are overrating Derek Carr.
Speaker 1: A lot of people still feel that he's not the answer,
Speaker 1: and no matter he threw for four nine hundred yards
Speaker 1: is still I don't think this is a long term. Okay,
Speaker 1: he threw for seven hundred yards behind his receivers though. Wow. Wow,
Speaker 1: Through the first one hundred and eleven games, there's one
Speaker 1: player with more yards and fewer fewer interceptions than Derek Carr.
Speaker 1: One player in history the first one hundred and eleven games,
Speaker 1: one player with more passing yards and fewer interceptions than
Speaker 1: Derek Carr. He is still playing, He's still really good.
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, that's it. And I know numbers lie. But
Speaker 1: and you know, Derek Carr will never be as good
Speaker 1: as we think he should be. It's just not um.
Speaker 1: And Gruden always loves the quarterback he doesn't have, because
Speaker 1: you know, when Derek Carr moves on to another team,
Speaker 1: then John and will say nice things about him, and
Speaker 1: probably you know, wish that he had Derek Carr, but
Speaker 1: he doesn't always like And when John Gruden wins, he
Speaker 1: doesn't win with great quarterbacks. Mean he won with Brad Johnson. Yes, boy.
Speaker 1: If you go back to the draft a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago, everyone thought that Gruden was going to trade
Speaker 1: all that draft capital he got for Kalo Mack to
Speaker 1: trade up to get Kyler Murray. Should he have well,
Speaker 1: I know he loved Kyler Murray. Knowing what you know
Speaker 1: what Kyler Murray and Derek Carr right now, if you
Speaker 1: had to do over, well, I thought that they would
Speaker 1: have a new quarterback going into the new stadium. And
Speaker 1: that's why I thought they were going to go win
Speaker 1: on Kyler Murray because sources close to me tell me
Speaker 1: that John Gruden loved he loved Kyler Murray and then
Speaker 1: told somebody, Hey, don't you tell somebody what you just
Speaker 1: saw and it was that, you know, John kind of
Speaker 1: confessed his love for Kyler Murray Illack those short guys,
Speaker 1: tall guys. I can't even see the sons, can't even
Speaker 1: look up at him. I have the short gay yeah.
Speaker 1: Seton the thing with Derek Carr is that you get
Speaker 1: the sense when you're watching them that you're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, he's figuring it out. This is gonna be
Speaker 1: the year. But he's been there seven years. You know,
Speaker 1: he's thirty years old. It's just like, what other poll
Speaker 1: question do you have before we take a break? Okay,
Speaker 1: back to the Mannies. If I gave you one choice
Speaker 1: of traditional broadcast or the Manning broadcast, but you can't
Speaker 1: flip to either, you have to stake on one for
Speaker 1: the entire game. UM, I would still stay with traditional.
Speaker 1: I think I could get the highlights of Manning Night
Speaker 1: Football after the fact. But it's nice to flip back
Speaker 1: and forth. But I still more of the traditional broadcast
Speaker 1: because I'm watching the game. I love the stories, but
Speaker 1: I can I can hear about the stories after the game.
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll take a break. Lewis Riddick was in
Speaker 1: the Monday Night Night Booth last night and he'll join
Speaker 1: us coming up, get his thoughts on lamar Jack that
Speaker 1: performance and as they move forward, what kind of concerns
Speaker 1: does he have for both of these teams. We'll check
Speaker 1: in with USC because USC is in the market for
Speaker 1: a new head coach and there's already some wild speculation
Speaker 1: wild We'll run down the list of possibilities. Have a
Speaker 1: source who is got somebody inside the USC program who's
Speaker 1: helping me with some information as we speak. So once
Speaker 1: I get that, let you know. Eight seven seven three

Speaker 1: remind me, I gotta get up really early, and I
Speaker 1: gotta be on the Dan Patrick Show. Yes, I like
Speaker 1: when Fritzie sends a noted three forty five on Saturday
Speaker 1: after the early college football Hey, do you have to
Speaker 1: produe it in quarterback? Yeah, not realizing that everything that
Speaker 1: happened Saturday could be washed over by Saturday. Oh no, sorry,
Speaker 1: this is totally mean to talk. Yeah, it'd be some
Speaker 1: result in the football game. We'll go, Joe clad Joe
Speaker 1: Clatt maybe on Monday and I'll go, how about we
Speaker 1: let the weekend play out there? How about that? Just
Speaker 1: let it slow down a little bit. Dodd's on the
Speaker 1: phone trying to get to Lewis, though he doesn't know
Speaker 1: he's pretending to be on the phone trying to get
Speaker 1: Lewis ready because he didn't want to engage. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: I gotta really it's always are on college football. I
Speaker 1: have a really mean college football pall. Wow, most disappointing
Speaker 1: program over the last decade. I think the choices are easy, Okay, USC,
Speaker 1: Texas or Michigan. M disappointing be the expectations where became
Speaker 1: so high? Well, I don't know if the Texas expectations
Speaker 1: are that high. Michigan because of Horball. The expectations are high.
Speaker 1: Texas spends but they don't get results. Uh. I guess
Speaker 1: USC because USC used to be that was a dynasty,
Speaker 1: but it's been a long time. I mean, USC has
Speaker 1: to understand who USC is right now in today's landscape,
Speaker 1: and it's not pretty. But that's why they made this move.
Speaker 1: It's just you fire Clay Hilton. Clay never would have
Speaker 1: gotten this job. He never would have been the head
Speaker 1: coach if you didn't have the fallout with what happened
Speaker 1: with Steve Sarkisian. I mean a certain things they keep
Speaker 1: promoting from within, and I think that's where remember Brady Hoke,
Speaker 1: you gotta have a Michigan guy. You don't have to
Speaker 1: have a Michigan guy. You have to have the right
Speaker 1: Michigan guy. You don't have to have a USC guy,
Speaker 1: you have to have the right USC guy. And Clay
Speaker 1: Helton nice man, but not a head coach at USC.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the honest truth. And as many times
Speaker 1: he came on and he was very generous with his time,
Speaker 1: I just it felt like he wasn't a head coach
Speaker 1: there and there were booze there at the coliseum and
Speaker 1: you get embarrassed by Stanford and all of a sudden
Speaker 1: you're out after two weeks. Yeah, Paul, Michigan football hasn't
Speaker 1: won the Big Ten since two thousand and four. Brady
Speaker 1: Hoke had an eleven and two seasons. Harbus kept them relevant.
Speaker 1: They've had a bunch of ten win seasons and they're
Speaker 1: always in the top twenty. But it still feels like,
Speaker 1: get that Big Ten title and beat Ohio State and
Speaker 1: then it's back. Yeah, Michigan is relevant, but they don't
Speaker 1: beat Ohio State. And until you do that, you're just
Speaker 1: not going to be on the national landscape. You need
Speaker 1: to be a contender. You need to beat Ohio State. Texas.
Speaker 1: I've never had any high expectations for not in a
Speaker 1: long time. And they've had fun quarterbacks and they've had
Speaker 1: some talent there. I just haven't looked at Texas and
Speaker 1: went wow. I mean since Vince Young left USC, it
Speaker 1: always feels like, Okay, now they got this quarterback or
Speaker 1: this wide receiver, this running back. I mean, I wonder
Speaker 1: if they take some big swings here. I would if
Speaker 1: i'm USC. The problem sometimes is when you take big swings,
Speaker 1: if you miss, then it feels like, wow, what happened
Speaker 1: to that program? You can't get the guy you want.
Speaker 1: I mean remember when Florida State. Florida was like asking everybody.
Speaker 1: But you know, there's only a couple of programs like
Speaker 1: Notre Dame can get who Notre Dame wants, or Ohio
Speaker 1: State could get who they want. Alabama if Nick Saban
Speaker 1: decides to step down, I mean, there's a few program
Speaker 1: Clemson where you can go, hey, we got a lot
Speaker 1: of people that would surprise you that want these jobs.
Speaker 1: But USC that hasn't been the feeling. But they promote
Speaker 1: from within, and I think that's part of their problem
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, I'm a club. We were all talking
Speaker 1: yesterday about how Florida State we still think of them
Speaker 1: Florida State from twenty years ago. Yeah, and we don't
Speaker 1: understand why they're not that team. Well, there's Florida State,
Speaker 1: Texas is like that that. There's a few that when
Speaker 1: when we grew up, you knew that they were great
Speaker 1: programs year and in year out. You know, Oklahoma is
Speaker 1: still a great program year and in year out, Texas
Speaker 1: just isn't. But USC, and I wonder if they take
Speaker 1: a swing, as crazy as this is going to sound,
Speaker 1: and it's gonna sound crazy, does USC go after urban Meyer?
Speaker 1: Because they from what I was told that they made
Speaker 1: an offer and the higher ups to a certain degree
Speaker 1: level wanted urban Meyer and then it went all the
Speaker 1: way to the top and it was nixed. It was vetoed.
Speaker 1: They did not want to bring in urban Meyer into
Speaker 1: that current culture that everything that's going on at USC,
Speaker 1: you take a swing for urban Meyer, I guess you
Speaker 1: got to at least try. Let's bring in Lewis, the
Speaker 1: former defensive back and he's the analyst for Monday Night
Speaker 1: Football next week Monday Night Football, Lions at the Packers.
Speaker 1: The Ravens next game Sunday Night hosting the Chiefs. The
Speaker 1: Raiders next game at the Steelers on Sunday, and Lewis
Speaker 1: joins US. Now, Lewis, if I missed the game and
Speaker 1: you were trying to sum it up? Could you sum
Speaker 1: it up? Um? Yeah, just that you couldn't put any
Speaker 1: kind of word limitation on me though, you know, I
Speaker 1: mean it'd be it'd be a little bit longer of
Speaker 1: of a summary. But what I mean, damn you saw.
Speaker 1: I mean, what a wild night, what this wild night.
Speaker 1: I think the Raiders were once. Really as long as
Speaker 1: they don't have anything unforeseen happen from an injury perspective
Speaker 1: or from a COVID perspective, I think they have the
Speaker 1: makings of a team, especially on the defensive side, that
Speaker 1: could really give them a respectable level of play, unlike
Speaker 1: any defense they've had since maybe John came back. And
Speaker 1: I think that's a big difference. And I think with
Speaker 1: the with the Ravens, I still think I think they're
Speaker 1: gonna be fine. They were playing so so much so,
Speaker 1: you know, at a deficit because of not knowing what
Speaker 1: the running back room would actually look like on game day.
Speaker 1: The offensive line hadn't played very much during the preseason.
Speaker 1: Got you know, they have a new right tackle in
Speaker 1: the mill on the way who you saw really struggled.
Speaker 1: They know now just what they're gonna have to possibly
Speaker 1: do with that. Um, But I still think they're gonna
Speaker 1: be okay, because really, I mean they're That game could
Speaker 1: have went either way, So I think they're gonna be fine.
Speaker 1: But I think I think the Raiders could really could
Speaker 1: really have a decent team. They really could. But the
Speaker 1: key is going to be that defense. Is Derek Carr
Speaker 1: the guy. Yeah, I've always believed that. And you know what,
Speaker 1: the debate with him or surrounding him for his entire
Speaker 1: career has always been something that's kind of puzzled me
Speaker 1: a little bit. And I know, you know, and this
Speaker 1: started even before like he even got to Oakland. I
Speaker 1: mean there was always beenness. You know. At first it
Speaker 1: was just a ridiculous well you know, his brother wasn't
Speaker 1: very good, and it's like, well, who cares, I mean,
Speaker 1: what does that have to do with him? And then
Speaker 1: it was well, since he struggled with some situations as
Speaker 1: far as throwing the football against pressure and at Fresno
Speaker 1: he's gonna struggle with in the NFL, was like nah
Speaker 1: that but see some of those things followed him when
Speaker 1: he got when he went to the pros. But if
Speaker 1: you look at his career objectively and look at how
Speaker 1: he stacks up against some of the best drawers in
Speaker 1: the NFL in critical situations, whether it be fourth quarter
Speaker 1: or comebacks, third down, completion percentage, completion you know, completion
Speaker 1: percentage in the red zone, or ascerrating in the red zone.
Speaker 1: This guy is right up. He's top five, top eight
Speaker 1: throughout the course of his career and in particular last year.
Speaker 1: And I think he's someone who right now is so
Speaker 1: he's so comfortable with what John is doing from an
Speaker 1: offensive perspective. He knows everything about that offense to the
Speaker 1: point where it's like they both will tell you he
Speaker 1: could probably teach it as well as John can teach it.
Speaker 1: That I think you're going to see him play. You'll
Speaker 1: see him play the best football he's played yet. And
Speaker 1: he's going to take guys like Henry Rugs and take
Speaker 1: guys like Brian Edwards, who was basically the hero last night,
Speaker 1: and he's going to make them better players. So that's
Speaker 1: really I think what's next for Derek not just how high,
Speaker 1: how much further he can take his game statistically, but
Speaker 1: how much better he can make everyone around him, how
Speaker 1: much he can elevate the people around him, Because that's
Speaker 1: truly wild. We really, you know, when it really comes
Speaker 1: down to it, that's how we really measure great in
Speaker 1: the that the quarterback position is you know, numbers or numbers,
Speaker 1: and I get it, and some numbers have more importance
Speaker 1: than others. But it's really about how much better do
Speaker 1: you make your team and how much better do you
Speaker 1: do you make your the guys on offense as far
Speaker 1: as elevating their level of play. And he realizes that
Speaker 1: I asked them that specific question when we talk to
Speaker 1: them before the Monday night game, and he's very aware
Speaker 1: of it. And I thought, you saw it happen last night,
Speaker 1: and I think you're going to continue to see it happen.
Speaker 1: It's not very often when I could take a highlight
Speaker 1: reel of a quarterback. I could give you like three
Speaker 1: or four or five plays and it all happened in
Speaker 1: one game. But I could also give you low lights
Speaker 1: of three or four plays, and Lamar Jackson had both
Speaker 1: of those last night. Yep. What do you make of
Speaker 1: his performance last night? I think, even though he wouldn't
Speaker 1: say that, he felt and he added pressure as far
Speaker 1: as having to play above him beyond his own standard
Speaker 1: of greatness that he's already set. But the truth of
Speaker 1: the matter is he played last night like like someone
Speaker 1: who knew that or he felt like I had to
Speaker 1: do something even more spectacular than what my normal standard is.
Speaker 1: And he may have at certain points in time gotten
Speaker 1: careless as far as ball security, especially when he was
Speaker 1: running taken off trying to pick up some extra yardage.
Speaker 1: I mean, you saw, I mean the two the two
Speaker 1: crucial turnovers at the Raiders defense force late in that
Speaker 1: game were in situations where you know, he's the primary
Speaker 1: ball carrier, He's in traffic and there and and that.
Speaker 1: I mean, it just it cost him, It caused him.
Speaker 1: I think I think he'll he'll learn from that. He'll
Speaker 1: learn from that, and that won't happen, you know, with
Speaker 1: the consistent level of of occurrence. As one he watches
Speaker 1: the tape from last night to the offense itself really
Speaker 1: finds its identity and really starts to develop some cohesion
Speaker 1: because it doesn't have many Half of these guys have
Speaker 1: been on the they haven't really been on the field
Speaker 1: together all preseason long for different reasons. Starting off Lamar
Speaker 1: miss in time because of COVID offensive line. You know,
Speaker 1: they've been shuffling people around, especially in between, you know,
Speaker 1: from guard to guard, and then they didn't play it
Speaker 1: play very much together. You know, all the running back injuries,
Speaker 1: obviously the injuries that wide receiver with Rashad Bateman and
Speaker 1: Miles Boy could not even really not really being available
Speaker 1: to him. So I think as they all start to
Speaker 1: kind of like get it together from a health perspective
Speaker 1: and start to have some time to practice together, and
Speaker 1: Greg Roman offensive coordinator, has an idea of exactly how
Speaker 1: he can best utilize everyone, I think you'll see in
Speaker 1: Lamar's mentality shift from I have to do everything to
Speaker 1: just Okay, now I can just utilize what's around me.
Speaker 1: But last night, there's no question he felt like he
Speaker 1: had to do more than what than what was really
Speaker 1: necessary any cost them and crucial moments. Were you ever
Speaker 1: in a locker room where you knew your starting quarterback
Speaker 1: was not the right quarterback for you, like the Bears
Speaker 1: situation that Andy Dalton is there, But there's part of
Speaker 1: that locker room that probably says, put in justin fields,
Speaker 1: he's the best guy here. How does that work in
Speaker 1: the locker room? Yeah, I've never I've never been in
Speaker 1: that kind of situation with with the quarterback position in particular.
Speaker 1: But I mean you can you can definitely just from
Speaker 1: a from a team perspective and haven't been part of
Speaker 1: teams in the whole life, and you can understand how
Speaker 1: in the Bear's locker room, there's probably there's there's definitely
Speaker 1: going to be those who feel as though Justin needs
Speaker 1: to be in there right now. Is probably a certain set,
Speaker 1: you know, a certain part of the locker room that's
Speaker 1: a little bit louder than others as far as making
Speaker 1: that point known. And with every loss that they you
Speaker 1: know that they continue to rack up and with every
Speaker 1: touchdown pass that Justin continues to throw in or run
Speaker 1: for it, both in practice and in games like he
Speaker 1: did the other night against the Rams, that you know,
Speaker 1: that silent not really silent, but that kind of vocal
Speaker 1: minority is going to become a vocal majority. And Matt's
Speaker 1: got to be very careful and make sure he has
Speaker 1: his finger on the pulse of that, because if he's
Speaker 1: got to make sure this this season doesn't get away
Speaker 1: from him from his locker room kind of like you know,
Speaker 1: fracturing and splintering to the point where he can't recover it.
Speaker 1: And then you know, try and make a move to
Speaker 1: Justin before you know and it's too late. He's got
Speaker 1: to be definitely, he definitely got to be careful with that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just wonder if Matt Naggie has that much I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna say confidence in his job, but it feels
Speaker 1: like he if you were desperate, then you'd put in
Speaker 1: Justin Fields. Then you would attach yourself to your rookie
Speaker 1: quarterback and say, well, we don't want to break up
Speaker 1: that relationship. And I don't know if I think they
Speaker 1: play the Lions maybe in week five, and I was
Speaker 1: wondering if if maybe that's enough time Justin Fields gets
Speaker 1: in for a little bit, sprinkle him in there, and
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you unveil him in a
Speaker 1: game against the you know, substandard team. But trying to
Speaker 1: figure out that logic with a coach who's on the
Speaker 1: hot seat, you get your rookie quarterback. It almost felt
Speaker 1: like they went with the rookie quarterback because I was
Speaker 1: going to make make you know, mean that the coach
Speaker 1: and GM we're going to keep their jobs for a
Speaker 1: little while longer. Yeah, I mean, you know, when you
Speaker 1: when you try and really you know, predict how this
Speaker 1: would you know, potentially play out. Yeah, I could see
Speaker 1: where you feel that way and and how most people
Speaker 1: would feel that way. And quite honestly, I felt, you know,
Speaker 1: even knowing that as well as I do, I always
Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, at some point in time,
Speaker 1: like sooner rather than later, obviously he would turn to
Speaker 1: him too, because he didn't. You know, he's he's a realist.
Speaker 1: He understand that you know, things are on the line,
Speaker 1: and that you know, obviously if you go with a
Speaker 1: young quarterback, it could wind up giving you more time
Speaker 1: as far as you're you know, the review of surrounding
Speaker 1: your job status is concerned and that maybe he would
Speaker 1: like rush that along sooner rather than later. And he
Speaker 1: has pushed back against that theory right from the get go.
Speaker 1: Dan he has said numerous times, and I believe him,
Speaker 1: that he doesn't care about his job status. This is
Speaker 1: really about the short and the long term development and
Speaker 1: then sustainability of justin fields of his career that he's
Speaker 1: trying to safeguard, the safeguard the young man's career. He
Speaker 1: doesn't really care what happens to him, meaning if he
Speaker 1: gets fired, he's going to do the right thing. He's
Speaker 1: gonna do right by the kid, and that's and look,
Speaker 1: I mean, most people feel though in the whole city
Speaker 1: of Chicago feels relationship just put him in there. And
Speaker 1: quite honestly, you know, he'd even being as close as
Speaker 1: I am to Matt, I feel he should put him
Speaker 1: in there. But he really does want to see what
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton can do. He really does feel as though
Speaker 1: Justin obviously doesn't have there's something that's not making him
Speaker 1: comfortable right now to the point where he would just
Speaker 1: throw him in there, especially given the deficiency that this
Speaker 1: offense has. And look, I respect the hell out of
Speaker 1: him for doing it that way because the the scrutiny
Speaker 1: and the pressure that's being put on him right now
Speaker 1: to play that kid. I mean, you know, it's it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable, and he won't he won't rush it until
Speaker 1: he feels as though that's the best thing for the
Speaker 1: kid and the heck with his own job status. And
Speaker 1: I respect that great broadcast last night with the guys.

Speaker 1: the emotional roller coaster of that game last night and
Speaker 1: summed it up this way, Coach and your career, have
Speaker 1: you ever been involved in a game like this Before
Speaker 1: we'd almost appeared like you had to win the game twice?
Speaker 1: Can you recall anything like this in your career? Died
Speaker 1: and woke up and died again, and I was like
Speaker 1: a cat. I had multiple lives tonight. I don't like
Speaker 1: playing like that. It was tough, but again, we did
Speaker 1: a lot of really good things to win that football
Speaker 1: game tonight. It sounds like Frank Caliendo doing John Gruden. Yeah,
Speaker 1: multiple lives, lives, multiple lives. It's week one and I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm two and oh not one. And though
Speaker 1: I feel like we're two and oh, let's pull question.
Speaker 1: We're gonna go with me Glovin so Seaton and I
Speaker 1: just work shop this it's pretty perfect. Okay, you have
Speaker 1: to win one game. Who do you want under center? Wait?
Speaker 1: Are you gonna go Derek Carr and Jameis Winston? Okay,
Speaker 1: Derek car or Kirk Cousins. Jamis is too mercurial for
Speaker 1: the Okay. Basically, Derek Carr and Kirk Cousins, statistically, in
Speaker 1: every way, are the exact same quarterback. Cousins has been
Speaker 1: to two Pro Bowls. Car has been to three. I
Speaker 1: described them both. They live in what I call Shopville.
Speaker 1: Matt Shabville, who had also been to two Pro Bowls. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: they're better than Matt Show was a good quarterback. I know,
Speaker 1: but it's just they're they're they're they've graduated from Shopville.
Speaker 1: Oh I don't know. Yes, they've they've graduated from Shaanville. Yeah.
Speaker 1: See see that's what I thought too. I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, hold up, they're not residents of Shopville.
Speaker 1: They're better than that. Job led the league in passing
Speaker 1: one year, almost another year. Two time Pro bowler. Yeah
Speaker 1: that again. Cousins has two Shoville. But you get back
Speaker 1: to the whole question, though, it's not easy. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go with Derek Carr. I'll go with Derek Carr in
Speaker 1: one game. You're going with Derek Carr, not Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 1: And those are the only two options. Okay, you can't
Speaker 1: go without a quarterback. That would be I can, I should,
Speaker 1: I can go with the wild Wildcat. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with Ronnie Brown in the Wildcat offense. Career rating ninety
Speaker 1: eight for Kirk Cousins, ninety three for Derek Carr. I don't, right,
Speaker 1: I don't. I have no idea. Yeah, Kirk Cousins is
Speaker 1: one in three in playoff games. Derek Carr has never
Speaker 1: lost a game in the postseason because he's never been
Speaker 1: at the bench. I thought, I think he got hurt
Speaker 1: one year. He was really good early in his career.
Speaker 1: Broke his leg. Yeah, right before the playoffs. Had backup
Speaker 1: at him. Yes, Seaton Matt shob career rating just a
Speaker 1: half a point under ninety. He's at eighty nine per Okay,
Speaker 1: he was in the league for a long time as
Speaker 1: a backup. Was I think is he still in the league?
Speaker 1: Was last year? I don't. My God made a good
Speaker 1: chunk of change for himself too. Yeah, he was definitely
Speaker 1: in the league last year. He played in one game
Speaker 1: and he rushed three times for minus four yards. He
Speaker 1: must have done the kneel down. That's his old stab line.
Speaker 1: He didn't drow it past it. Three rushes minus four yards.
Speaker 1: The statistics are actually getting worse and he's not even playing.
Speaker 1: Dan and Michigan leads us off. Hey Dan, what's on
Speaker 1: your mind today? Babyp First time caller, a long time listener,
Speaker 1: love the show. Five eleven two o five. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to comment on your interview with Louis Riddick and
Speaker 1: I'm behalf of All Lions Tams. We're a little hurt,
Speaker 1: he calls the substandard team. Um, but I will be
Speaker 1: at the game at Lambo on Monday night and go
Speaker 1: all right, well, thank you, thank you Dan for calling in. Um,
Speaker 1: you are a substandard team right now. I mean, this
Speaker 1: isn't personal, it's just performance based. I have nothing against it.
Speaker 1: I no fan base. I mean, I hope the Lions
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl one day. I think it's one
Speaker 1: of the few remaining great stories left to be told
Speaker 1: in the NFL. I might not be around to see it,
Speaker 1: but maybe you can record my voice and then it
Speaker 1: can be played when the Lions have won the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I never thought I would be around for this. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: We got it. We got at okay free agent acquisition
Speaker 1: Derek Carr. No, that's not I'll be around. I'll be
Speaker 1: around for that if that happened. I hope. Yeah, Mclub Joe,
Speaker 1: we allowed to put up this car Cousins, Paul. We
Speaker 1: love it over here. We're really into it. That's as
Speaker 1: it really mean? Is it mean? I like the college
