6
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 2: Tom te LESCo, former NFL GM's gonna join us in

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 2: about twenty five minutes. I want to get his thoughts

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: on the two point conversion. If he's the GM, if

9
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 2: he's Brandon Bean sitting up there in the cold weather

10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 2: of Buffalo where there was a wind, just just a smitch,

11
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: just a bit of wind, what do you want us

12
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: team to go for two or kick the extra points.

13
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 3: I'm really glad we have the Weather channel on right

14
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 3: now so we can see the weather in Buffalo and

15
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 3: what you wanted Michael Badgeley to do.

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 2: Yesterday there was a picture on the shores of Lake

17
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: Erie of Buffalo where it looked like there were ninety

18
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,959
Speaker 2: mile pro hour winds. Trees were at a ninety degree angle.

19
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 4: Bees were flown over the well.

20
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: Jason Stuart agrees with me. Social media agreed with Manzi

21
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: in that the bills were right and going for two.

22
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 2: I said they should have tried the extra point to

23
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: tie it. Jason agrees, and then when I asked Big

24
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: Mike at Fox Sports Radio, he said he didn't care.

25
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 4: Right, so the thank you.

26
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where we are on this. Chrispurhat, are you

27
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 2: kick the extra point or go for two? Sort of

28
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 2: guy in that situation last night.

29
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 5: I think overtime it is an abomination in the eyes

30
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 5: of God himself. So yes, anything to avoid overtime, I

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 5: am good with that. I think that ball is slick.

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 5: And I also have some history with Michael Badgeley seeing

33
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 5: him kick in Detroit in the past. I don't think

34
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 5: I would trust his leg even if it was bone dry.

35
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: I mean again again, the OJ number does not bode

36
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: well for him, Like Karma's not going to be on

37
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: your side, Isaac, go for two, kick the extra point.

38
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 6: I would have gone for two. One other reason is

39
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 6: because the previous extra point, maybe it was a little low,

40
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 6: but it was blocked.

41
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 7: The Eagles have.

42
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 6: Had a tradition this year in a history of blocking

43
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 6: kicks place kicks in clutch situations well earlier this season

44
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 6: against the Rams, and had the Eagles gone on to

45
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 6: win the game in overtime, everybody today would have been shouting.

46
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: You are josh Alin in a play to win the game?

47
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: Why didn't you go for two?

48
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 4: Thank you? Isaac Loan Crime.

49
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm shouting you lost because you went for two.

50
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: Sure, yeah no, but the play was there. The play

51
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 3: was there, and it's it's just I don't disagree with

52
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 3: the call.

53
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 8: That's that's what it is.

54
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 4: We're here discussing it because you disagreed.

55
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 2: I completely disagree, and I.

56
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: Hated Red Sox Fan agreed with me. Dan all right,

57
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 3: Red Sox Fan three zero four.

58
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 2: Thank you. Josh Allen was mad. He's throwing his he's

59
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 2: throwing his tablet, he's throwing his helmet, everything that came

60
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 2: with it. But man, that was all on McDermott. All

61
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 2: on McDermott. And it may lead to a road out

62
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: of Buffalo. The road to Milan runs through Saint Louis see.

63
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,840

Speaker 2: last Monday of twenty twenty fives. Montsey pointed this out

69
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 2: earlier in the show A Weird Monday. It's our last

70
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: love and hate for twenty twenty five?

71
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: What did you love?

72
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 9: God? I love you?

73
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: And what did you hate?

74
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: Meet these player Hays Jason Stewart, this is your brainchild,

75
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: will let you start it out?

76
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 7: Oh wow, do I have a doozy for you? So

77
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 7: remember earlier in the season, I said that the Aaron

78
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 7: Glenn story with the Jets is becoming my favorite story.

79
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 7: It's officially my favorite story of the season. And this

80
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 7: is my favorite stat maybe of all time, that the

81
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 7: Jests have yet to get an interception in seventeen weeks

82
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 7: sixteen games. The other quarterbacks are thirty four touchdowns, zero interceptions.

83
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 7: And it wouldn't be that funny if Aaron Glenn was

84
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 7: hired from the Lions as their defensive coordinator. He's a

85
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 7: defensive head coach and he might be the only head

86
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 7: coach to oversee a team having zero interceptions and a season.

87
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 7: I'm rooting for that this season. And also side note

88
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 7: earlier this year and this time slot Dan and Doug

89
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 7: disagreed with me when I said, I think Aaron Glenn's

90
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 7: handling of the press conferences and being combative with reporters

91
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 7: is going to expedite his exit. If not this season

92
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 7: and right after this season, Dan said no, I think

93
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 7: he comes back next year. I think Woody Johnson gave

94
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 7: him a vote of confidence. This is Aaron Glenn's answer

95
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 7: when he summed up his team effort yesterday after the game.

96
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 10: I always talk about how we come out when we

97
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 10: played with effort. Today was probably the one time I

98
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 10: feel like our effort wasn't that's good I would want

99
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 10: to be. And that's just me not bsing you guys,

100
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 10: just being on this. I didn't think the effort was

101
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 10: where it need to be.

102
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 7: And then this morning he wakes up and he had

103
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 7: a rethinking for reporters about the effort yesterday.

104
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 10: Effort was not the issue with that game, I thought,

105
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 10: I guys, I thought they played all the way to

106
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 10: the very end.

107
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 7: So Dan, I want to give you one last chance

108
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 7: before the season ends. Should Aaron Glenn keep his job

109
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 7: for next season?

110
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: I got my hate for the week. Yeah.

111
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 4: Is his name Jason?

112
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 2: My hate is Jason Stewart. That's really tough. I I

113
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 2: thought there was no way that Aaron Glenn could lose.

114
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 8: His job, right, I understand that I thought that.

115
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: This season was the throwaway and yesterday did not help.

116
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: And then changing, So to answer your point, Aaron Glenn

117
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: first of all said it was the effort. Well, the

118
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 2: effort is on the head coach.

119
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 5: Right.

120
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: Then when you come back and say it wasn't the

121
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: effort that the guys try hard, that they tried their best,

122
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 2: then you're like, all right, we're thirty nine points worse

123
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 2: than the New England Patriots. Like that's that's what you're

124
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 2: That's what you're essentially saying if you're Aaron Glenn, and

125
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: that is also not a good look.

126
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're a defensive coordinator.

127
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 2: It was like my guy, yeah, yeah, and sorry, thirty

128
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 2: two points. It ended forty two to ten. It was forty.

129
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 4: Two to three in there.

130
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 2: That's right the touchdown run. I will, Jason, to answer

131
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: your question. I will say, gosh, I'm really wavering. I

132
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 2: thought today that Aaron Glenn probably would lose his job,

133
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: and now you put me on the spot. So I'm

134
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 2: saying he's gonna stay, He'll be back for year two,

135
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: just because of how you who took the bus. Doug

136
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: Gottlieb's not here anymore too, he's out coaching basketball. So

137
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 2: I am the lone one under the bus right now,

138
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 2: getting backed up with that semi.

139
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 4: It's true, it is true.

140
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 2: Don't worry. Jason may get his later on in the second.

141
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 2: Chris Purfat, what'd you love from the weekend?

142
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 7: Oh?

143
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 11: Boy?

144
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 5: I have a lot more hate in me than love,

145
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 5: So this might be a little bit of a trick.

146
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 5: I'm going to get outside of footballs for a second.

147
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 5: I'm saving all of that for the hate side, all right.

148
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 5: Besides the fact that I love that the cheese grater

149
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 5: is like now a traveling thing to any team that

150
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 5: plays the Green Bay Packers, a proud tradition and other

151
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 5: teams in the NFC and worth I love seeing that.

152
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 5: But I gotta I gotta give this to a team

153
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 5: that I've always been very hard on, the Athletics over

154
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 5: the weekend. Late in the week he actually gave leftfielder

155
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 5: Tyler Sarderstrom a deal worth eighty six million dollars, a

156
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 5: seven year contract with a club option for an eighth season.

157
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 5: Now with Escalators, this can max out to one hundred

158
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 5: and thirty one million dollar and I bring this up

159
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 5: because that is the largest contract in athletics history up

160
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 5: until this point.

161
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 3: Wow.

162
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 5: And I am very happy to see the the athletics,

163
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 5: the cityless, nameless, wandering athletics, finally live up to the

164
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 5: reputation of having big money bags and actually, you know,

165
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 5: joining the twentieth century of spending money on player. I'm sorry,

166
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 5: it's the twenty first century. Now, that's the twentieth century.

167
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 5: They're still behind the times. But hey, you know, baby steps.

168
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: Well the Dodgers just on the triple A reliever for

169
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 2: just as much. Yeah, so yeah, yeah, right right, Dodgers.

170
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 2: I think he got pod for baseball. Here's your nineteen

171
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: trillion dollar contract that will owe you in twenty seventy five. Sorry,

172
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: you guys got to the point that now, Jason, what

173
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: do you got? Moncie, what do you got for your love?

174
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 4: To do it?

175
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 11: All?

176
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: Right?

177
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 4: Guys?

178
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: You know, it's been a really nice couple of days

179
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 3: being a Clippers.

180
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 4: Fan, because there was rough for a really long time.

181
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 4: And today I.

182
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 5: Didn't hear what no, sorry go on.

183
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: And today I said to Dan right now, I was like,

184
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,599
Speaker 3: you know what the best part is I didn't have

185
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 3: to worry about what I wanted to wear today.

186
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 8: I could proudly wear a Clipper shirt.

187
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 3: They've won four in a row and Kawhi Leonard a

188
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 3: career high fifty five points yesterday into it Dome, beating

189
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 3: the Detroit Pistons in a the way the Clippers have

190
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: beat not just the Pistons, but the Rockets, Trailblazers on

191
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: the road. They beat the Lakers, but the Lakers were depleted.

192
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: But that was the first of this four game winning streak.

193
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 4: They look a lot better.

194
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 3: Derek Jones's back, and I really did not expect.

195
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 4: To have.

196
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 3: A good little moment as a Clippers fan because of

197
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: how the season started. So that was my favorite part.

198
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 3: Kawhi Leonard looking good out there. No one can stop

199
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 3: the claw.

200
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: Except maybe his knee. But right now he's good.

201
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 8: Right now is good.

202
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: Lakers, Rockets, Blazers, Pistons, not.

203
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: Too shabby, right, not too shabby.

204
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 8: And let me tell you what the Rockets, they were

205
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 8: full squad.

206
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 3: Kawhi Leonard shut down both those twins in a matter

207
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 3: of a week, all right, shut them down.

208
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 2: So when we say Thompson twins, do you think n

209
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: B A well, yes, yes, what do you think of I?

210
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 7: Think Men without Hats and uh one hit wonders from

211
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 7: the eighties.

212
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 2: Isaac Low and cron Hold me, now, that's what I think?

213
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 2: You know? Do you know Thompson Twins?

214
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 4: Come on, is this a musical artist?

215
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

216
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 4: I mean not not by the huh yeah, so that's

217
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 4: the man. Is there a song? I would know that.

218
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 4: I just wouldn't know.

219
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 8: Hold me now, if you heard I heard, I would

220
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:39,439
Speaker 8: know it.

221
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 4: But just by that the.

222
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 7: Doctor, doctor, doctor?

223
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 2: All right, Isaac? What you love from the Weekend?

224
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 6: I love this quote by Philip Rivers. It came after

225
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 6: his Indianapolis Colts lost a technically meaningless game to the

226
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 6: Jacksonville Jaguars.

227
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 11: That's the thought of meaningless games, which I know that

228
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 11: gets thrown around, and it is in the sense of

229
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 11: it doesn't affect the postseason. There's no impact on the postseason.

230
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 11: But to say a game is meaningless is not in

231
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 11: my DNA, and I don't think it's into these guys.

232
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 11: Obviously what you saw today from an effort standpoint, because

233
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 11: those games we played in the backyard when we were

234
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 11: ten years old weren't meaningless, right, Nobody gave a rip

235
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 11: about those but you went home crying or you went

236
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 11: home happy.

237
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 6: I think it's been so much fun to watch Philip

238
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 6: Rivers play over these last three weeks, regardless of results

239
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 6: and regardless of stats. And I actually have a theory

240
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 6: I'd like to run by you guys. I think that

241
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 6: over the last three weeks, Philip Rivers coming back has

242
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 6: earned him Hall of Fame votes down the road that

243
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 6: he might not have gotten initially for perhaps a first

244
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 6: ballot Hall of Fame induction in his first year of eligibility.

245
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 6: That's my theory that he has just added to his

246
00:11:55,040 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 6: legend and garnered some extra Hall of Fame votes what

247
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 6: he's done coming back over the last three weeks.

248
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 2: I agree wholeheartedly. I think that is going to be

249
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: one of the benefits. And his point about meaningless games

250
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: is he actually added value to games that maybe we

251
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: wouldn't have cared about or cared about from the Colt side. Now,

252
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 2: the Colts have had a juggernaut of opponents with the Seahawks,

253
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, and Jaguars here in these three weeks here,

254
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 2: but he made it interesting and gave you a reason

255
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 2: to root for the Colts or to be interested in

256
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 2: the game that they were playing. On their side, of

257
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 2: things despite not being in the playoff picture. So his

258
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 2: point on the meaningless games was a bullseye.

259
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 3: That cold season went down so fast right like they

260
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 3: were in such a high and it completely fell off

261
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 3: the cliff in the blink of an eye. And bringing

262
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 3: in Philip Rivers brought the fan base together again to

263
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 3: like at least end on a positive note.

264
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, masked some of uh huh, some of Yeah the

265
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: stink yep I just love my cousin came into town.

266
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 2: Everybody here got to meet him, went to the Chargers

267
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: game on Saturday. He had something that he had been

268
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: looking forward to for a long time, and we had

269
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 2: a great time. It was the first time I'd been

270
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 2: at so far for an NFL game, and so that

271
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: was unique because usually I'm here on Sundays and haven't

272
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: gone to any of the primetime games. But we're able

273
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: to do it on a Saturday afternoon, a glorious Saturday afternoon,

274
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 2: with two teams with uh much more than just making

275
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 2: it to the playoff aspirations, playing a football game that

276
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: wasn't back and forth, but it was just a really

277
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: good and it wasn't even a high level game because

278
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,719
Speaker 2: I don't think the Chargers played their best, but they

279
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 2: had opportunities. It was dramatic, It was a lot of fun.

280
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 2: And I got to ride to the game with Jason Stewarts,

281
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 2: so yes, we had a good time.

282
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 7: Well that's my hate, Can I can I just take

283
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 7: the hate.

284
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 8: Let I have part of this with you, So let

285
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 8: it out for both of us.

286
00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 7: Okay, So, being at the stadium to watch your team

287
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 7: get punched in the face, you feel for the fans

288
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 7: like you don't even take this into consideration, where you're

289
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 7: just watching these games on TV, right, Like just sitting

290
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 7: there next to my son, who's the biggest Chargers fan,

291
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 7: I know, just giving up those two bombs for fourteen

292
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 7: to nothing, and the Chargers weren't moving the ball. You're like,

293
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 7: people paid really good money, they spent a Saturday trying

294
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 7: to get into this stadium, They're gonna spend hours getting out,

295
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 7: ye and they're just sitting there in the first five

296
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 7: minutes of this game feeling like crap. That was my hate.

297
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 7: I hated that feeling.

298
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 2: We had seats where Jayden Higgins scored his touchdown. Oh fun,

299
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: and so like you see this Stroud pass just going

300
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 2: AND's like Wally's it's gonna score as long as as

301
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: long as it's someone on point. And I felt like

302
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: the ball was up in the air for about twenty seconds,

303
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: but off and running in the Texans never looked back.

304
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 3: Such an emotional game. That Chargers game was everything the

305
00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 3: Chargers are. They give you hope, Yeah, take it away.

306
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 4: That's been a Chargers fan?

307
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: What did you hate from the sweet That's.

308
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 11: Part of it.

309
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 3: But I will say can I I did hate that,

310
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 3: but I don't want to double up on that. I

311
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 3: actually I agree with a lot of what Isaac said.

312
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 3: So I hated that the Colts couldn't get a win

313
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 3: at home with Philip Rivers to kind of wrap up

314
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 3: the season. And they were so there, Like the Jaguars

315
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 3: didn't play out of their mind like we've seen.

316
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 4: The Colts were in it and I was rooting for them.

317
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 3: It was like, there's no way Philip Rivers doesn't win

318
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 3: one game, right, There's no way he comes back there.

319
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 8: He's gonna win one, win it at home.

320
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: And at least wrap up the season for the Colts

321
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 3: in a much lighter way because they're headed to Houston

322
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: that's not gonna be pretty. I doubt Philip Rivers plays

323
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 3: that game against Houston. He's fighting, you know, they you

324
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 3: but in the young guy in there, he's gonna.

325
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 4: Handle this a lot better than me.

326
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 3: So I just I hated that Philip Rivers couldn't get

327
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 3: a win, and the last one at home for the Colts,

328
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 3: because what a year they had, just unfair.

329
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 6: By the way, before that game, they had a local

330
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 6: youth choir or of about one hundred kids sing the

331
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 6: national anthem, and somebody on social media posted a picture

332
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 6: of them and said, hey, look, Philip Rivers kids are

333
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 6: getting them.

334
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: Very funny. He had his high school team that right,

335
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: he did?

336
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 4: He did that?

337
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 2: Was I did see that. It's very very funny. Isaac, Isaac,

338
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 2: what'd you hate from the weekend?

339
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 6: Well, I'm gonna uh Collins looking good these days, by

340
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 6: the way, So I'm on the UCLA broadcast.

341
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, slim down, Byn.

342
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 6: So what happens when you stopped spending twenty one hours

343
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 6: a day watching film? Tank that Hollins anyway. It also

344
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 6: has to do with the Chargers Texans game. Let me

345
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 6: take you back to late in the fourth quarter, the Texans,

346
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 6: holding on to a twenty to sixteen lead. Houston has

347
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 6: a third down and nine at its forty six yard line.

348
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 6: If the Chargers got to stop there, they get the

349
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 6: ball back. C. J. Stroud is sacked by a Dafe

350
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 6: oh Way and day on. However, there's a penalty on

351
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 6: the Chargers for illegal contact. What I hated was that

352
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 6: it was a dubious flag to be thrown in that situation.

353
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 6: Could you make the argument that by the letter of

354
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 6: the law it's illegal contact, Yes, but I feel that

355
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 6: the receiver also initiated the contact at the same time

356
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 6: as the Chargers defensive back. And I feel in that situation,

357
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 6: if you're gonna make a game decide and call, you

358
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 6: want it to be obvious. You want it to be

359
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 6: a whale and not a minno. If I can put

360
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 6: it that way, and if I have to rewind it

361
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 6: six hundred times.

362
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 4: To slow it down and see it to see that.

363
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 6: It's a penalty, it's just not the flag you throw

364
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 6: in that situation.

365
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 7: Pick up the flag. Pick up the flag. Have some

366
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 7: awareness of what the game situation is. Don't take away

367
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 7: from the excite. Again, You're in the stadium, everyone's going

368
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 7: nuts about this sack, and then there's a flag with

369
00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 7: that non consequential flag It's like, what a doubt, right.

370
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 3: It's like, if you would have made this call in

371
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 3: the first quarter, we're not having this discussion.

372
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 8: But what that's when you make this call, and that's

373
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 8: really what upset me.

374
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 4: But Isaac just expressed it so eloquently.

375
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: We did. I'll tell you what I hated from the

376
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 2: Texans Chargers game, because that's what we're focusing on here,

377
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 2: the Texans coming to Los Angeles and the Chargers saying, yeah,

378
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 2: we'll wear our Supercharger Navy uniforms. So it's Navy on Navy, Like,

379
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 2: what do you like of all the teams that you

380
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: could pick to use against thee all the uniform combinations

381
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: or the different teams that came in. This is the

382
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 2: third time that they've worn those uniforms. I wanted to

383
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 2: see some some baby blue, wanted to see some of

384
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: the mustard, and instead what I we got the what

385
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 2: I call the Leslie O'Neill era Chargers. Yes, yes, sorry, no,

386
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 2: that's okay. Chris Perfett just has to quick tell us

387
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 2: what he hated from Charges Texans.

388
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 5: No, well, not from Charges tex Well, we all four

389
00:18:55,880 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 5: of up. I'm really heated about this. I I was

390
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 5: out of my mind until he until Ilo played at

391
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,199
Speaker 5: the top of the hour. I hate Lincoln Riley. I

392
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 5: hate this entire thing of USC Notre Dame being broken up.

393
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 5: I hate it all. I hate every last bit of it.

394
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 5: And I hate USC acting like this is somehow Notre

395
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 5: Dame's fault. Lincoln Riley's been playing playing foot seas about

396
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 5: dropping this rivalry for years. It sucks. I've listened to

397
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 5: I've listened to Brady Quinn. I've listened to Petros, Papa Dakes,

398
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 5: I've listened to guys close to this rivalry. The only

399
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 5: people in favor of this rivalry going away are short

400
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 5: sighted believing that USC will pick this up somehow in

401
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 5: the Big ten. It's the Big two, Little eight. Most

402
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 5: of the time, you're not gonna you're not locked in

403
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 5: playing Ohio State Michigan every year. You're going like you're

404
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 5: going to miss this. You're I don't know what other

405
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 5: tradition we have to sacrifice on the altar here.

406
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 2: This sucks.

407
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 5: This going away sucks, and Lincoln Riley is a coward

408
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 5: and a liar.

425
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 2: to Fox Sports Radio. Do you know what this question

426
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 2: is going to be?

427
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 9: I have no idea. I know I wouldn't think.

428
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 2: Okay either. That's that's all right, don't worry. Last night

429
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 2: Bill's down one. Sean McDermott decides to go for two.

430
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 2: As a former GM, you're Brandon Bean sitting up there

431
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 2: watching how the second half has unfolded. Do you agree

432
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 2: or disagree with Sean McDermott's decision.

433
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 9: I agreed with the decision. I don't know where that's

434
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 9: going to come out there here we go, I do.

435
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 9: I just think, look, you've got one play from a

436
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 9: two yard line to win the game. Rather than number

437
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 9: one you kick the extra point, which at that point,

438
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 9: with that weather and then Michael Badgley has been a

439
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 9: little bit shaky. You know, that's not a guaranteed kick.

440
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 9: But even if he makes the kick, you know you

441
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 9: go to overtime. You still have to get stops, at

442
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 9: least one stop in overtime, whether it's the initial kickoff

443
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 9: or after you score, and you got to drive the score.

444
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 9: So I just think taking that, taking one play from

445
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 9: the two yard line with Josh Allen, who you know,

446
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 9: if not, he's one of the best resident quarterbacks in

447
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 9: the league. I'll take that every day of the week.

448
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 9: They had the right play baled up. He just missed him.

449
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 9: He doesn't miss him very often, but he missed him.

450
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 9: But I like to call, and.

451
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: That's all the time we have for Tom to latch.

452
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 2: Just kidding four two, Jason Stewart and I are outvoted

453
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio.

454
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 3: Thank you Tom, because now Dan owes me something Starbucks.

455
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is, but he owes me something.

456
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 2: There you go.

457
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 4: Let's move on.

458
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 3: This DK Metcalf situation seems messier and messier every single day.

459
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 3: Jay Glaser comes out and says that there was some

460
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 3: sort of history with this fan prior to this game.

461
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 3: But then we also saw earlier in the year Lamar

462
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 3: Jackson having another incident with the fan when they were

463
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 3: playing the Bills. Did the NFL handle this well with

464
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 3: dk Metcalf suspending him twice obviously putting his hands on

465
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 3: a fan never?

466
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 5: Never?

467
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 4: Okay?

468
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, And that's the issue right there, And it's just

469
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 9: how the player handled it, even though I'm sure it's challenging.

470
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 9: But like every NFL sideline, every team has at least

471
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 9: one and usually more than one, somewhat insecurity, whether it's

472
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 9: your director security, whether it's the system director security. They're

473
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 9: on your sidelines. And then there's NFL security that's on

474
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 9: the field during the game. So what the players don't

475
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 9: have to be just reminded of is if you do

476
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 9: you see a fan as acting like that, point them

477
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 9: out to either your director's security or the NFL security director.

478
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 9: Let them handle it. The last thing you can do,

479
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 9: because you'll never win, is go up to the fan

480
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 9: and start engaging with them. Football is an emotional game,

481
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,479
Speaker 9: you dk metcalf is playing an emotional game, and right

482
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 9: in the middle of the game, can you imagine just

483
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 9: dealing with the fans. So that's why you have people

484
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 9: down there to help you that situation. I don't know

485
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 9: all the specifics behind it, but I just wish he

486
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 9: would have went to his club or the NFL that say, look,

487
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 9: just take care of that fan right there, and then

488
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 9: you never had that situation happen.

489
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 2: Tom zelasco joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, former

490
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 2: GM of the Chargers and Raiders. She's Mancy Belanios. I'm

491
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 2: Dan Beyer. I'm sure John Lynch is doing a little

492
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 2: peacocking considering how good that Brock Purty has been playing

493
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 2: as of late, second straight touchdown set, the second straight

494
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 2: game with five touchdowns. Have you seen a different Brock

495
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 2: party when he's obviously been healthy this season. Now that

496
00:23:55,359 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 2: the contract stuff is in the rearview mirror, you.

497
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 9: Know he's played like this at other times his career.

498
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 9: So it's not a surprise. It just seems like it's

499
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 9: happened with other players too, and it's just as unfortunate.

500
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 9: But it tends to happen. Is wherever you get drafted,

501
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 9: you just kind of get labeled from where that draft was,

502
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 9: and especially players that get drafted late, you know, rather

503
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 9: than letting your play dictate. Once your career starts and

504
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 9: start playing, well, you know what that kind of dictate

505
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 9: you know what the narrative is around you. And I

506
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 9: think people just have this perception that always that he's

507
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 9: a seventh rong draft pick and he shouldn't be good,

508
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 9: but he is outstanding. And I know, going back, I

509
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 9: guess there's be a couple of years ago when I

510
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 9: was with the with the Raiders, we sat down with

511
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 9: their scouts and just we did a deep dive on

512
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 9: Rock Purty. Not not that we're going to try and

513
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 9: acquire him at the time he was with San Francisco,

514
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 9: but more like, hey, look we were in the draft

515
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 9: and looking at quarterbacks. They're not all going to be

516
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 9: justin Herbert or Andrew luck where they're a big, strong,

517
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 9: physical rocket arm. There's there's other factors that go into

518
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 9: play in the position to play at a high level.

519
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 9: And we watched a lot of Rock Purty and there

520
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 9: were throws all over the tape of just anticipation, ball placement, accuracy.

521
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 9: His arm strength is plenty good enough. You know, it's

522
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 9: not a rocket, but it's plenty good enough. And he's

523
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 9: a good athlete and he can move around, so all

524
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 9: those factors have been there. Last year, they had so

525
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 9: many injuries on the offense. I think it's hard for

526
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 9: him to really get going, and he had some injuries himself.

527
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 9: But what you're seeing last night is what he can

528
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 9: do and he's really not a standing player.

529
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 8: Is Todd Bowles in the hot seat?

530
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 2: Boy?

531
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 9: I wouldn't think so. I just think, you know, people

532
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 9: are so quick to uh, I guess, to put people

533
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 9: in the hot seat. But no, he's an outstanding head

534
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 9: coach and he's proven that year after year, and he's

535
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 9: a really good defensive mind. So what's going on there

536
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 9: right now? I don't understand it, because there's they're just

537
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 9: not playing the way that they're capable and usually how

538
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 9: they play and sometimes thinks snowball and not every year

539
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 9: is going to be a great year. But I just

540
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 9: think he's a good coach. They have a really good

541
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 9: staff there. I don't I can't put my finger on

542
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 9: exactly what the issue is. I know that was a

543
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 9: tough loss, but they're still in it. But now I

544
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,959
Speaker 9: don't see that at all. I think he's a really good,

545
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 9: really good head coach in this league.

546
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 2: Tom Dalaska joining us here on Fox Sports Radio kind

547
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 2: of along those lines, how would you evaluate Aaron Glenn

548
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 2: and the Jets, especially after yesterday's de moralizing loss to

549
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 2: the Patriots and his future with the team.

550
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, those are difficult because when you hire a head coach,

551
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 9: you have to be thinking more than one year. There's

552
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 9: a big transition that that goes on, and he's still

553
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 9: he's not you know, he's learning to be a head

554
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 9: coach on the run, which you know, which it happens

555
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 9: when your first time I coach. Obviously, some things you

556
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,120
Speaker 9: have to learn on the run. But the last month

557
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 9: or so, it's just been they haven't been competitive, So

558
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 9: it's it's tough to sit through for a front offeras

559
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 9: or ownership. I know that, but you know, you put

560
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 9: a plan together. There's the reason why you hired him

561
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 9: as a head coach. Obviously, they made some changes in

562
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,120
Speaker 9: personnel throughout the year that weakened them for the short term.

563
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 9: Hopefully he was strengthened him for the long term. But

564
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 9: but you know, they sent some pretty good players out

565
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 9: the door, and look, they weren't playing with the quarterback

566
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 9: yesterday and haven't played with the quarterbacks for a couple

567
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 9: of weeks and really for the year. So it's hard

568
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 9: to put, you know, a really competitive product on the

569
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 9: field when you send out some really good defensive players

570
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 9: and you haven't said a lot a quarterback yet. So

571
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 9: you have to stick with the plan as hard.

572
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 4: As it is.

573
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 9: You just can't wait for the season to be over

574
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 9: so you can start working on next year. And that's

575
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 9: what we're both get working on real soon. And they

576
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 9: have a lot of draft picks. I assume they should

577
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 9: have some cap space with the players they sent out

578
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 9: and we get moving next year. But they have to

579
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 9: show some market improvement next year.

580
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 4: Who is your coach of the year?

581
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 9: You know, there's so many of this. Yeah, I know,

582
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 9: I'm I guess I'm part of the media now, but

583
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 9: I'm not really big on you know, ranking them. But

584
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 9: there's there's so many between Graybull and Cohen and Ben

585
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 9: Johnson and Mike McDonald, Kyle shanahanam you wanted last night?

586
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 9: With what they did and with with what they're dealing with.

587
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 9: I mean, all of these guys could be a coach

588
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 9: of the year. Sean Payton, I know that he could be,

589
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 9: like not only as a head, as a coach of

590
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 9: the year, but just team building, working with George Peyton,

591
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 9: what they've what they've done in Denver the last couple

592
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 9: of years, and honestly, even Dave Kanals in Carolina with

593
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 9: what they've done, I thought Carolina was still a couple

594
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 9: of years away from competing with their roster and they've

595
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,640
Speaker 9: done the outstanding job. So I mean, I'd say there's

596
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 9: you know, six or seven you can make a case

597
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 9: for which is great in the NS League. But you know,

598
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 9: there's always that recency bias. And he watched San Francisco

599
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 9: last night. It's hard to say that Kylie Shanahan shouldn't

600
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 9: be it shouldn't be the coach of the year.

601
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,880
Speaker 2: See, we aren't always trying to fire head coaches. We're

602
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 2: also trying to lift them up right, and look at

603
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 2: you got the coach of the Year. Tom we appreciate

604
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 2: the time, Happy New Year, best of luck in twenty

605
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 2: twenty six, and can't wait to talk to you again.

621

Speaker 2: may have heard Isaac mention some news about USC and

622

Speaker 2: there was other news involving Notre Dame and that's Marcus

625
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 2: Freeman is going to be back with the Fighting Irish

626
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 2: tweeting today I see you in twenty twenty six. I'm paraphrasing,

627
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: but Diana Rassini was on with the Herd earlier today.

628
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 2: Now they were talking NFL, talking New York Giants, but

629
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: Marcus Freeman's name came up because Freeman is going to

630
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 2: be staying in South Bend. This was part of that conversation.

631
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 12: The New York Giants were not the only team who

632
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 12: were interested in Marcus Freeman. There were at least four

633
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 12: other teams I know poking around on Marcus Freeman. And

634
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 12: when I say poking around, because some of those teams

635
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 12: have a coach currently in place right which makes sense

636
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 12: because there's only two available head coaching jobs right now

637
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 12: on the table, that being the New York Giants and

638
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 12: the Tennessee Titans, who you know, both organizations definitely had

639
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 12: plans of bringing Marcus Freeman in.

640
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 2: So and that's what kind of stood out to me

641
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 2: is when she used the number four right away at

642
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 2: my ears, kind of you know, I figure out the four, yeah,

643
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: and who would be looking and who would be considering it. Also, Mancie,

644
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 2: I think that there's more to the Marcus Freeman situation.

645
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 2: And I know this this may change things, but the Giants.

646
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 2: Maybe Arnest committed to Jackson Dart as we thought, you

647
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 2: never know who's going to come in and be the

648
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 2: next head coach in that scenario. But I also think

649
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 2: that Marcus Freeman maybe looked at New York, the Giants situation,

650
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 2: and actually the Jets situation plays into it as well,

651
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 2: looked at the Tennessee situations that okay, that one's open,

652
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 2: and maybe he heard from through the behind the scenes

653
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: on what teams with coaches were looking. But it tells

654
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 2: me that he looked at Tennessee and he looked at

655
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: the Giants and said, I'm good, like I don't need

656
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 2: to be a part of that something that like is

657
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 2: it can't miss sort of deal. So you know what

658
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 2: that says to me, I'm wondering about the future of

659
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 2: cam Warden. I'm wondering about the future of Jackson Dart

660
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 2: in New York because Marcus Freeman says, I'd rather just

661
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:12,959
Speaker 2: stay in college.

662
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I don't blame Marcus Freeman at all.

663
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 3: You kind of have unfinished business at Notre Dame and

664
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 3: you should go back. Maybe it's not even it's not

665
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 3: even just that Dan, right, it's beyond the situation that

666
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 3: you can see right now in the NFL with each team,

667
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 3: it's the incoming class of quarterbacks. Like what is who

668
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 3: is the selling point here? Is it location? Is it

669
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 3: a player or is it this? It doesn't sell like

670
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 3: anything is selling, might as well stick where you are,

671
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 3: which is I feel like refreshing to hear that Marcus

672
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 3: Freeman was like, no, I'm just gonna you know, there's nothing.

673
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 4: I haven't finished business over here, Like I'm gonna finish

674
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 4: this out.

675
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 8: It's not like next year people aren't going to be

676
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 8: interested in Marcus Freeman.

677
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 2: It's also refreshing to hear a restructured contract.

678
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 8: Sure, because that was the only that's yeah, yeah.

679
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 2: It's not like he's you know what, We're good. We

680
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 2: don't have to change any of the numbers. But I'm

681
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 2: happy here. That could have been an option, but it wasn't.

682
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 2: I think it also just gives you the state of

683
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 2: the NFL. And the reason I bring the Jets into

684
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: this is because Jason thinks that Aaron Glenn should be gone.

685
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 2: I am admitting that there's a lot of evidence in

686
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: considering what happened yesterday and maybe why they do have

687
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: to make a change even after only one year, even

688
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: after Glenn was brought in to change the culture. But

689
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,479
Speaker 2: that's the reason why, because I think that's what Marcus

690
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: Freeman does. Marcus Freeman comes into a place not as

691
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 2: the hot offensive coordinator, not coming in as the defense

692
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 2: that's a top five NFL defense or one that's going

693
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,479
Speaker 2: to just give quarterbacks fits around the NFL. Marcus Freeman

694
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: is going to go in with a culture and that's

695
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 2: what Aaron Glenn tried to do. And it may not

696
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 2: even give him a full season. So if you're going

697
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 2: into the NFL and maybe that's one of the jobs

698
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 2: as well, that could have been a possibility for him.

699
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 2: He finds the situation maybe with whoever the ownership is

700
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 2: of those teams, saying if I'm coming in for culture

701
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 2: and I'm seeing what they're doing with some of these

702
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: other head coaches, maybe college is best for me. I

703
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 2: think that probably played a part of it as well.

704
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely, we've sat here and discussed many different situations with

705
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 3: different coaches where it's not or players or individuals where

706
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 3: it's not always greener on the other side, and I

707
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 3: think that's what he saw. He's like, why what is

708
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 3: out there that is better than what I have here

709
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 3: where things are working for me. Obviously he's mad about

710
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: the situation that they didn't get into the College Football

711
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 3: play Off, but I just think he realizes, like, this

712
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 3: is where I need to be. I have unfinished business.

713
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 3: Let's talk in a couple of years about the NFL again.

714
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Notre Dame didn't go to a bowl game,

715
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 2: so he wasn't at a bull presser like Lincoln Riley

716
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 2: was to talk about the reason why the rivalry is

717
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 2: no longer. Jason Stewart, your thoughts on Marcus Freeman staying

718
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 2: at nd.

719
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 7: Did you guys also get the feeling just by the

720
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 7: word in here or maybe if you just read between

721
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 7: the lines, they're running it back next year. Everything seems

722
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 7: to be at you know, everything seems to be lining

723
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 7: up for next year with Notre Dame, and then we're

724
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 7: going to have the same conversational year from now. Safe

725
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 7: to say, I.

726
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 2: Think we're gonna have the same conversation until he actually

727
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 2: leaves or just gets a deal from Notre Dame that

728
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 2: makes him the highest paid head coach in college football,

729
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 2: or whatever the case may be. But I think that

730
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 2: that I think we are always going to hear his name.

731
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I also think that he thinks like next

732
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 3: year they're are for sure into the playoffs.

733
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 2: Well they are because of that and any expansion.

734
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 1: Breck.

735
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 3: You got what I'm saying, Like he's why, I'm like, no, not,

736
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 3: you're for sure and might as well try this one

737
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:30,959
Speaker 3: more time.

738
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 2: Yeah you do? You do lose. Jeremiah Love is gonna

739
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 2: be a top ten pick, maybe even the top five

740
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 2: pick depending on things shakeout. But Notre Dame gets to

741
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 2: keep Marcus Freeman. Not a huge shock. The road to
