You know, 4 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: with the Browns and the toilet and the Jets below 5 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: the toilet, we thought who better to have al than 6 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: someone who coached them both. We have former NFL head 7 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: coach Eric Manginie on with us today. This guy had 8 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: the unfortunate honor of having to coach both teams. We're 9 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: gonna get his insight into what the hell happened there. Yeah, 10 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: before we get into that, Tony. Uh, you know, we've 11 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: been getting analytics on the show from the people at Apple. 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: They send us these analytics. There's a metric out there. 13 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna give you a little inside business people. There's 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: a metric called consumption rate that tells you how much 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: of the show people listening to. Our consumption rate is 16 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: a hundred and nine. So that must mean that people 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 1: listen to our show and then they just sit there 18 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: for maybe thirty fifty minutes after and they're just really 19 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: processing everything because you can't process it while you listen 20 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: to there's so much information, Yep, there is. And on 21 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: that note, we're gonna throw a little curveball at your people. 22 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: Usually we do our NFL takeaways, but today we're gonna 23 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: do what they call in the business a segment. Tony 24 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: and I we put our heads together. We came up 25 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: with something real creative, tell them, Tony. So basically, in 26 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: this segment, we're gonna talk about something that happened, and 27 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: then we're gonna tell you if it's good or not good? 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: Good or not good? Alright, first storyline, Tony tom Brady 29 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: in the Bucks scoring thirty eight points in a win 30 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: against the Packers. Good or not good? This is not good. 31 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: When you're playing in the league, you do not want 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: to peek too soon. End up, bucking Is are peaking 33 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: too soon. So what happens is when they get to 34 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: week seventeen, they're gonna start to suck. You want to 35 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: peek later in the season. You know what it's like, Tony, 36 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: It's like when you're dating. You don't want to take 37 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: a girl out to a fancy restaurant. You know, the 38 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: second or third day. You want to work your way up, 39 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: you know, start with you know your burger king you know, 40 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: your your Applebee's. Then on the you know, seventeenth date, 41 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: then you go to a five star restaurant, you know, 42 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: like p F. Chang's or the California Pizza Kitchen, you know, 43 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: somewhere really fancy. Yeah, let's go to the next one. 44 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Eagles lost another close nail, by this time 45 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: to the Baltimore Ravens. PAULI, is this good or not good? 46 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: It's clearly good. You want to get your losses out 47 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: of the way early. So, as we said, you peek 48 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: at the right time, right, That's why the Eagles one 49 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: in twenties seventeen. They peaked at the right time. And 50 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: you go back through history. Look at Rocky bell Boa, 51 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: right those first few rounds, he's suffering, he's losing, Drago's 52 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: kicking his ass. But then what does he do. He 53 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: peeks at the right time. You know, everybody says, oh, 54 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: you want to go fourteen in two thirteen and three. No, 55 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: you want to go seven, eight and one. This way, 56 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: when you make it into the wild card, there's no expectations, 57 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,519 Speaker 1: there's no pressure. Yeah, all right, let's move on to 58 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: this next one. So the Brown's got blown out by 59 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers Baker Mayfield, another shitty game. Is this good 60 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: or not good? Oh? This is good because the Browns 61 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: can finally move on to a real quarterback and Case Keenum. 62 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: You know, Case Keenum is the prototypical Brown's quarterback. When 63 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: you think about it, it's his sixteen. He loses everywhere 64 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: he goes, his best days behind him. He's perfect for Cleveland. Now, 65 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: this is what the Browns do. They you know, they 66 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: get the number one picked and they ruin him, and 67 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: then they swing to someone who's already ruined and never 68 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: had a chance. It's just the perfect perfect mix. Yeah, 69 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: moving on, the Tennessee Titans beat the Texans and over 70 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: time to get to five and oh on the season, PAULI, 71 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: is this good or not good? Clearly this is not good. 72 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: I mean the Titans they get two weeks off. They 73 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 1: basically had two buys in a row. And why because 74 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: they got COVID. So what are you doing? You're rewarding 75 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: them for getting COVID? Is that what you're doing? Like? 76 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: Should I just go out and get COVID so I 77 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: can get two weeks vacation from my job? I don't 78 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: do that. Do you do that? Tony? I? Don't. But 79 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, that's a pretty good idea, you know, 80 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: I I gotta say it. But you know, we do 81 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: run our own business, so we're trying to be shooting ourselves. 82 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think about it last one yet, Tony, we're 83 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: gonna do a little baseball. We got the Raised versus 84 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: the Dodgers in the World Series. Is this good or 85 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,559 Speaker 1: not good? This is not good. You know, nobody wants 86 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: to see a major market team and the championship. What 87 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: people want to see is a nice regional matchup. That's 88 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: why Raise Braves would have been perfect. Tell them some 89 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: of the best World series that we remember watching. Oh, 90 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: of course, you know, I remember, you know Florida Marlins 91 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: vers Cleveland. That was a good series, real baseball team. 92 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 1: And of course you known, right the Cardinals versus the 93 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: Rangers one, right, I look forward to that in the 94 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: eighties we had back to back. In eighty four you 95 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: had the Tigers with the Padres, two good baseball cities there. 96 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: And of course who couldn't forget a real clash of 97 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: the Titans between the Cardinals and the Kansas City Royals. 98 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: That is what true baseball is. It's not about the city. 99 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: It's about the game. Yeah, you know, I think the 100 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: segment went really well, Tony. I just hope it didn't 101 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: confuse the listeners too much. You know, I wouldn't be 102 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: surprised at the consumption rate this week is like three 103 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: se because of this, because what you're saying is people 104 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: are going to need more time to consume the episode 105 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: and process what we've said, right exactly. Alright, well we're 106 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: gonna throw something that you so, you know, just snap 107 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: out of it. People off time after the show to 108 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: think and consume, because it's time to get our guests 109 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: on the line hereas on the FUSCO Satellite Network Satellite. Alright, 110 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: let's get him in here. This guy, you know, spent 111 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: a long time in the NFL. Former head coach for 112 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: the Jets. Oh six to await. He coached the Browns 113 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: ten two seasons there. He won three Super Bowls as 114 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: a defensive backs coach for the Patriots. O. Hi, Yeah, alright, 115 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Alright, alright, got some good credits. Let's 116 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: get him in here. Eric Mangini, welcome to the show. Hey, 117 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: good to be here for us. How are you us? 118 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: We're doing great? Consumption rates off the charts. But right 119 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: now we're here to talk about you. You know, you 120 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: wound up being head coach for the Jets and the Browns, 121 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: you know, which leads to this question, who is your 122 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: agent and when did you fire him? It's I didn't 123 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to fire my agent. My agent is 124 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: actually my father in law. So that's gonna be. He's 125 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: not he's not welcome at Thanksgiving anymore. Well, I don't 126 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: know if I'm welcome at Thanksgiving anymore, you know, getting 127 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: let go by both those places. But you know, I 128 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: thought he did a pretty good job. I still I 129 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: still use him, but ye know, but I want to 130 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: know how it works yere. You know, how do you 131 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: wind up becoming a head coach for teams like that? 132 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: Is it like a draft where you know you're you're 133 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: forced to do it? No? No, I was looking forward 134 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: to working with either team. I'd actually I had been 135 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: with the Browns when I first started my career as 136 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: actually started as a ball boy for the Browns and 137 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: then I was a pr intern and then a coaching assistant, 138 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: So I had that experience early on. And I was 139 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: with the Jets when Bill Parcels was there, so I 140 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: like both those organizations a lot. Let me ask you, 141 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: if you were the Jets head coach right now, would 142 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: your forfeit the rest of the season. Isn't that the 143 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: smart thing to do? You know, I think that the 144 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: Jets have only one less win than the Eagles, so 145 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: it's not that that were right there. We're right in 146 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: the playoff and we also had a tie, so we 147 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: have a win and a tie, which is infinitely better. 148 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: You count as well as Tom Brady does, coach, and uh, 149 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: but you're talking about counting. We've been adding up your 150 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: numbers here. Now you went two winning seasons in three 151 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: seasons with the Jets. Now does that make you the 152 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: greatest coach in the history of the organization. You know, 153 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: I've liked what I did at the Jets. I think 154 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: we view Bank might have done it. You know, he 155 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: might be considered a little bit, uh, a little bit 156 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: higher up Bill Parcels. He might have have a bit 157 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: of a jump on me as well. But you're definitely 158 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: ahead of uh, Richie Coat Tie and Bruce Coslet and 159 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: and al grow like, yeah, way, but way above those guys. 160 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: That's the peer group you guys have me with. Okay, actually, 161 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: how it is, Well, we mean it as respect. You know, 162 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Browns because that's what we gotta 163 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: do here. You know, they were in rough shape. They're 164 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: really struggling right now, coming off that loss to the Steelers. Now, 165 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: you coached two full seasons in Cleveland before they fired you. 166 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: How did you last so long? You know, I thought 167 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: I was gonna last longer in Cleveland than just two 168 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: full full seasons. I I really anticipated being there for 169 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: for a long time. You know, the the organization has 170 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: has gone through some struggles, you know, prior to me 171 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: getting there and since I've been there. But they're they're 172 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: trending in the right direction. Well all right, Uh you 173 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: say trending in the right direction. Well, you know they 174 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: got Baker Mayfield. He's looking terrible. But they've got case 175 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: Keenom there and you know us he feels more of 176 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: what he embodies what a Browns quarterback is. You know, 177 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: he's on a six team. He loses pretty much everywhere 178 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: he goes. Career is almost over. Don't you think he's 179 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: the right quarterback for Cleveland? Look I like a lot 180 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: about Case Keenan. I was looking at him compared to 181 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: the guy that, and I know you guys love it 182 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: and Nick Foles and he's actually pretty much the same 183 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: in terms overall, almost the same completion percentage. It was 184 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: eleven and three in Minnesota. Was the start of ran 185 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: him off the field? Who was the name of that 186 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: guy who ran him off the field? What was that 187 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: guy's name? I'm not sure if Nick's ever had a 188 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: complete season? Has he ever? Has he ever pitched the 189 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: fil He just needs three games, he gets it done, 190 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: and he's a super Bowl as a closer. He's good. Yeah, exactly, 191 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,479 Speaker 1: He's like Mariano Rivera. You know you don't have Mariano 192 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: Rivera pitch nine things. Nope, you come in, bring him 193 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: in at the end, and he seals the deal. Yeah. 194 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: If the NFL was just three games, that'd be perfect. 195 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: Look at this to us, all right, all right, let's 196 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: get back to Cleveland, Sam, Let's get back a little 197 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: bit to Cleveland here, now, coach, at what moment with 198 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: the Browns, At what moment in your tenure did you 199 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: realize that you made a terrible mistake. Was it the 200 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: first day or the second day? No, No, there is 201 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: never a point where where I felt like I made 202 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: a terrible mistake going to Cleveland. Do I wish we 203 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: would have had a little bit more time, Yeah, I 204 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: think I think we uh, we could have gotten some 205 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: good things with some more time. But that's not that's 206 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: not what the patterns ben in Cleveland. And and maybe 207 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: the new administration will will get a chance to be 208 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: there long. Yeah, they only had about forty years to 209 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: get it right, so you know, maybe the forty one 210 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: just the right one. They're still rebuilding. Yes, Uh is 211 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: it true where you're in Cleveland? Where where do you 212 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 1: live right now? I'm in Cleveland. I'm actually talking to 213 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: from my Cleveland house right now. What are you still 214 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: doing there? I mean, is it like you can't move 215 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 1: because it's a depressed market or something, can't sell the house? 216 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I love Cleveland, fellas. You guys are 217 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: coming out here right aren't the Eagles coming out to 218 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: play at the end of uh? Uh? What is it? 219 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: And in November? I think you should come over. I'll 220 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: put on some pasta, well, have some sausage and pepper. 221 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: We're not treveling right now. Tony's Tony's grandpa has a 222 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: delicate immune system, so you can you can maybe get 223 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: in the car. We'll get you. You know, we'll figure 224 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,479 Speaker 1: it out. And if you throw in some chicken nachos 225 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: for us, maybe we can see you know, Tony, your grandpa. 226 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: He's old anyway. So yeah, well we'll eat outside. We'll 227 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: having outside. Okay, watch the game outside sounds Yeah. Now 228 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: now coach, shift into the Patriots here. We found some 229 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: interesting uh research. You know, it says in our research 230 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: that you are friends with Bill Belichick. Now what we 231 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: found interesting was that we didn't know Bill bella Check 232 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: has friends. Yeah, we you know, we we I was 233 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 1: with him for twelve years. I was with him in Cleveland, 234 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: and then I was with him in in New York, 235 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: and then I was with him the first six years 236 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: in New England. So we spent a lot of time together. 237 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: And I think that that sometimes your football personality is 238 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: one component of it, and then you've got your other 239 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: personality that a lot of people don't see. But you're 240 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: getting a little bit of a glimpse of, you know, 241 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: the the funny, comedic genius that he has in the 242 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: subway commercials. So is he kind of like what you're saying, 243 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: is he's like w W E character may like you know, 244 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: he's like Stone called Steve Austin on TV and then 245 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: at home. You know, he's just a normal guy. Yeah, 246 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: I don't have a great feel for Stone called Steve Auston. 247 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: It was a great analogy. Good work. Yeah, I was 248 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: more like Ivan Putski, the Polish hammer from back in 249 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: the very Strong. You know that. That's so I put 250 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: him more in that category. You know, you coached the 251 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: Patriots defense for Tom Brady's first Super Bowl win? Did 252 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: he have a thank you for covering for his inability 253 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: to play football? Like? Does he thank you? Say thank you? Coach? 254 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: I don't know me out I can't count. It's it's 255 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: it's funny, you know. I talked about Tom A. Lott 256 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: on how his first year he wasn't the Tom Brady 257 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: that that we all know, you know, married to a 258 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: supermodel and six super Bowl wins. He was a guy 259 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: that that really had to work hard and struggled his 260 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: first year and then put it together and then he 261 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: wanted the first super Bowl and then we you know, 262 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: I think the second Super Bowl, I can't I lose 263 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: tracks against the Eagles and we beat the you know, 264 00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: you guys remember second it was and it was but 265 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: you know, t o had a broken leg. McNabb had 266 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: an upset stomach. Yeah, and now you know, I don't 267 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: know if I don't even know what number of Tom is. Well, 268 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: you can't count, just like he can't count, you know. Yeah, 269 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: it's no, it's not Nick Foles type numbers. And it's 270 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: no to and oh now Carson, it's not Carson wentztype number. 271 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: But I see what's going on here.

Then Uh, well that leads 275 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: to the other reason we brought you here. Uh. You know, 276 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: any coach you can coach the Jets to a winning 277 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: record has got to know what the hell he's doing. 278 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: So we're gonna make you a little proposal here.

Giants at Eagles. The Eagles are 334 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: coming off a tough loss to the Ravens. But games 335 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: that on in your division don't matter. It's the divisional 336 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: games that matter. And the Eagles are gonna be ready 337 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: to take it to the g men because it's the 338 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: only game that matters. I love the Eagles here for three. 339 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: You watch people. This is where the Eagles go on 340 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: their run and finished the season a solid seven eight 341 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: and one, make the playoffs, go to the super Bowl, book, 342 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: and I got the Eagles winning this fifties seven Giants three, 343 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: al right, Cowboys at Washington. The Cowboys are terrible. You know, 344 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: Washington went for two and lost that game. But I 345 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: do respect the guts that they have, so I do 346 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: like the Washington football team to beat the Cowboys three 347 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: to two. Tony, I really believe this is the week 348 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy goes back to dark Prescott even on one leg, 349 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: better than Andy Dalton, and Cowboys come out with the 350 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: win thirty seven. Alright, uh, Buccaneers at Raiders. One week 351 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: is not enough for Tom Brady to learn how to 352 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: play football. He's still not sure if it's seventh down, 353 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: fifth down? What's going on? The Raiders did beat the Chiefs. 354 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: I love the Raiders to beat the Bucks here twenty 355 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: four to two. You know, Tony, the games in Vegas 356 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: and what do we know about old people in Vegas? 357 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: Not a good knix, Tom Brady. He's gonna be staying 358 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: up way past his bedtime. He's gonna be snoozing through 359 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: the third quarter, fourth quarter. That's when the Raiders are 360 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: gonna roll take the game. I like Las Vegas in 361 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: a runaway seventy two to three. Alright, Lions at Jaguas, 362 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: We're not watching Bills at Jets. The Jets are quite 363 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: possibly the worst team in the history of football. I 364 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: think the Bills actually put up a hundred in this one. 365 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: I like the Bills to roll one hundred to three. 366 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: I actually my prediction for this game is that the 367 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: Jets bring Adam Gates out at halftime and perform a 368 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: public execution and kill him. So I got the Bills 369 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 1: winning this game because the Jets all get arrested for murder. Alright, 370 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: But that wraps up the predictions, and I guess that 371 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: wraps up the show. Now. We're not gonna thank Eric Mangi, 372 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 1: no way, no. He laughed in our face when we 373 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: offered him the Eagles job.
