He works in a department, um 26 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 1: in the realm of videography, and we were talking about 27 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: our upcoming London trip, which is a few weeks away now, 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks away, and um, we will be 29 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: there two weeks from today.

Yeah, you know, 36 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: I really need to stop doing everything so well because 37 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm the only one going and it's like I have 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: to do all the video, I have to do everything. 39 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: You know, somehow you'll survive. I don't know if trip 40 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: to London.

So reducing it down to one 43 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: feels in last year. Last year, it was before Erica 44 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: had risen up to talent. Yeah, you even be willing 45 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: to do the grunt work at this stage. You know, 46 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 1: sometimes Dan, you gotta you gotta be able to separate 47 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: and so um. Actually I'm getting approach to do stuff 48 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: for your power ranking show when we're over there too. 49 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: So not only am I talent, but I'm producing four 50 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: things as well.

Uh, this is this is good, this is 65 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: you know, the season has been defined in part by 66 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks going down with injuries and in one case 67 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: an illness and other um unherlded players having to rise 68 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: up and take over the most important position in the sport. 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: So we're gonna kind of take a spin through and 70 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: check in on each of those quarterbacks, those backups that 71 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: are now starters in a segment we like to call 72 00:03:53,520 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: hold the fort Ellipses or hold to but your butts. 73 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: I like that Butts is. There was a time I 74 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: would say about ten fifteen years ago where Butts was 75 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: kind of losing heat in terms of UH in society 76 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: and the UH. And I feel like Butts is really 77 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: coming on strong again. And then we're having a butt 78 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: moment a little bit. Maybe Samuel Jackson helping it back 79 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: in Jurassic Park right back in that's always always currying 80 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: with our pop call. But that was peak. But was peak. 81 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: But and then it kind of went away and everybody 82 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: was like as and Booty and all were not as 83 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: a phenomenon. Phenomenon has always been going strong. Everything coming 84 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: back after twenty years, right, I'm just saying the word 85 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: that were but is back in a big way. Boots 86 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: overtaking but booty or butts over set. What the help 87 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: the butts overtaking booty is. That's a major moment for jargon, 88 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: big jargon, good jargon talk. Save it for the jargon. 89 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: Please cut that for us, Eric, Uh, and he doesn't 90 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: have time for that stuff anymore. We'll also preview Thursday 91 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: night football look ahead to the beginning of week four 92 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: while we are rolling Eagles at Packers. But before we 93 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: do that, Uh, we'll hit some news. But before we 94 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: do that, we wrap up. Week three was some Monday 95 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: night football jock gun snappers, back Bears and a Scott 96 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: with mac. Here's the throat down to show accept it. 97 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: Take it away by the Bear. Ha ha, Clinton Dix, 98 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: I don't run us the tig to the five. He 99 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: got a touch, d'all pick six Bears. I'm abortingly it's 100 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: six something Jeff Johnny Ach with the call w B 101 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: b M. The Chicago Bears defense was as dominant as 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: advertised in the first half of the Monday night matchup 103 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: at FedEx Field in Washington, Uh, putting the Bears uh 104 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 1: in a giving the Bears at thirty one to fifteen 105 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: win over the Washington Redskins, a game that in addition 106 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: to that haha, Clinton Dicks um turnover interception run back 107 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: for a touchdown, four more turnovers created five total, all 108 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: charged to case Keenum, who had a very rough night 109 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: and on the quarterback side of the ball for the Bears, 110 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: progress for Mitch Robinsky, who didn't light things up Chris 111 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: Westling on Monday night, but statistically he threw three touchdowns. Uh, 112 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: he seemed to get comfortable. They took the foot off 113 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: the petal on the second half. But it was absolutely 114 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: a game of progress for the Bears offense in their quarterback. 115 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: It's nice to have great field position when you're a 116 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: struggling quarterback, and he started, by my count, twenty four 117 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: for about two yards and three touchdowns before that goal 118 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: line interception to Josh Norman where he just needed about 119 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 1: another foot or two on the fade um. If he 120 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: plays like that, they'll win the division. But everybody plays 121 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: like that against the Redskins. So I think he put 122 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: the doubts to rest for a week. I mean he 123 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: didn't put the doubts to rest. Really, people are continue 124 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: to doubt the Bears, but he gave himself a little 125 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: bit of a breathing room, whereas everybody was breathing down 126 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: his neck in the first two games. He's got a 127 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: stack a few of these games. Yes, they did what 128 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: they have to, but when you don't gain three hundred 129 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: yards against you know, one of the worst defense in 130 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: the league, you don't get any lollipops. I mean, I mean, 131 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: they did what they had to, they got out of 132 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: I get it. When you get the ball and the 133 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: other team's territory, you're not racking up yards, I get it. 134 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: But for instance, yeah, one of those touchdown drives was 135 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: four yards. They had another um drive where they got 136 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: the ball basically in reds against territory, they didn't do 137 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: anything with it. Yeah, it was fine, but they started 138 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: the game with two punts and you ended with under 139 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: three hundred yards against the Redskins. They got the job done. 140 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: You you move on. You didn't learn a ton. I 141 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: couldn't agree with more Greg that I I and I've 142 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: been real tough on Trabinsky and the Bears in general. 143 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: And this was a Bears dream game, dream type of 144 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: scenario where your defense is going to score a touchdown 145 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: put you up early, generally NonStop chaos for the opposing quarterback, 146 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: and you come out of it, like you said, Dan, 147 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: thinking oh maybe we're okay, which mim mits Robinsky in 148 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: a game where like every game, they're going to mention 149 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: over and over that this front office, uh, they don't 150 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: have to talk about it. But they drafted him ahead 151 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: of Deshaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes. And the game opened 152 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: when Trabinsky overthrew a couple of guys and through some 153 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,679 Speaker 1: bad passes early, and I understand he got He cleaned 154 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: it up down the stretch, no doubt. But the big 155 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: narrative was that they came away from talking with Chicago's 156 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: coaching staff that they had to simplify this playbook, take 157 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: a lot off Rabinsky's plate, and we're talking about a 158 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: third year starting quarterback who is still sort of a 159 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: work in progress, to say the best, when other quarterbacks 160 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: around the league are shining at a much earlier time. 161 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: So it is progress, I guess, but I really think 162 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: it's more just hold off the conversation for another week. 163 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: I think it's a little misleading to point to the 164 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: counting stats in this game and say, oh, they still 165 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: have a long way to go, because I think they 166 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 1: they were perfectly They were good in the first half 167 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: on offense, and that the final passing through of the 168 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: first half was a beautiful ball to Taylor Gabriel who 169 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: had three touchdowns in this game before going out with concussion. 170 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: And I kind of put it more on Naggy and 171 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: the Bears coaching staff, who really almost to the point 172 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: where the Redskins almost got back into this game in 173 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: the second half if not for another Keendom interception, they 174 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: did not. They stopped being aggressive. So I kind of 175 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: stick a pin in it at half of this game 176 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: and then I want to see what smart. But next well, 177 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: aggressive is the right word because going into this game, 178 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: I think Trabinsky was dead lasting yards per attempting, yards 179 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: per completion. They just weren't going down the field at all. 180 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: And I think the other question you have to ask, 181 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: even after this game, which a lot of things went right, 182 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: where are the big place to Tarik Cohen, who was 183 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: the engine who made this offense go last year. It 184 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: was good to see their defense, you know, come up 185 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 1: with those big plays. Not that it's surprising to see it, 186 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: but this is kind of how they've won game's last 187 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: year was naggy cooking up fairly easy throws. But I 188 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: don't feel bad, you know, harping on those stats. You know, 189 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: when I went to check the PF grades from this game, 190 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: just curious. Strabisky was one of the lowest ranked quarterbacks 191 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: of the week because he missed a lot of throws, 192 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: because he took a couple of sacks, because the offense 193 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: ultimately scored seventeen points. Lucky there, he did his job. 194 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 1: But said also one of the lowest right quarterbacks of 195 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: the leek was its best week for quarterback rank there 196 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: Lucky Trabisky didn't take a safety very early in this game. 197 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: It was not a great start, and I thought that 198 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: he came around and he did enough to think you 199 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: can win ten eleven games if the defense plays this 200 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: way and Strabisky is not forced to put the entire 201 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: game on his back. I just don't personally that's you're 202 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: gonna get bit at some point, They're gonna get bit 203 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: and gonna get knocked out there not This is not 204 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: the eighty five Bears, because that doesn't exist in this 205 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: league anymore, where your quarterback and throw it for a 206 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five yards a game. Let's shift over 207 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: the Washington side of this um as I said, Keenum 208 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: five turnovers and he had played pretty well the first 209 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: couple of weeks of the seas and it was farther, 210 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 1: uh furthest from their problems. Their defense was the big 211 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: issue issue in their O and to start, But after 212 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: a five turnover game, a game in which you fall 213 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: to oh and three, a game in which it sounded 214 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: like sixty or seventy of the fans there were rooting 215 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: for the visiting team at fed X Field, it is 216 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: a low point for the Washington franchise, a franchise that 217 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: really needs a shot in the arm. The most logical 218 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: shot in the arm is the guy you picked in 219 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: the first round of the most recent draft. That's a quarterback, 220 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins. So naturally, after the game, uh, Jay Gruden, 221 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: whose butt is on fire right now speaking of butts, 222 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: was asked, is it Haskins time? He was asked, is 223 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:47,599 Speaker 1: it Haskins time? I mean change response public Not really. No. 224 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: I think that's the most important thing is we have 225 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: to have some continuity. You know, I can't be changing 226 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: people every five minutes here. So I think case I 227 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 1: gotta give Case another an apple opportunity play with these 228 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: new guys. And this is the first time in this offense, really, 229 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: you know, um Donald Penn, Eric Flowers, our first time 230 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: in the softfense. You know, Terry dray Quin only played 231 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: two games last year. I made this point before. We're 232 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: not going to be perfect, but we need to be better, 233 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: and I think we can get better. Otherwise, if I 234 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: didn't think we had a chance to get better than 235 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: I would make a change. But I feel like Case 236 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: has the tools to be become a very efficient quarterback 237 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: in the softfense and get us some victories here. Um 238 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: moving forward West, that was the first level I've actually 239 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: heard that, and he always he kind of caught himself there. 240 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: He seemed to be he seemed to say he's going 241 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: to give him one more start, and then he corrected 242 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: himself and he's gonna give him more time. It can't 243 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: be much more than that, because what does Jake Ruden 244 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: and the Redskins have to lose at this point. Well, 245 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: there's two things going on here. Case Keenum, unlike some 246 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: other quarterbacks in the league, did not run himself into 247 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: pressure last night. He had Khalil mac hanging on his 248 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 1: arm every throw. What are you gonna do? I mean, 249 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: that wasn't on the quarterback, the pressure he was facing, 250 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: not the decisions he made because of the pressure is 251 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: on him. But that pressure is gonna affect any quarterback 252 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: that the Redskins way, and Dwayne Haskins was clearly not 253 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: ready a month ago. Does that mean he's ready now? 254 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: I doubt it. They talked about Dwayne Haskins in a 255 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: place right now where he's still learning to go through 256 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: an NFL week of preparation, and and that shouldn't be 257 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: the worst thing for a rookie. That's been true of others. 258 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: But I just think that he does not feel that 259 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: putting Haskins out there into the fire is necessarily going 260 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: to give you better results than a milk toast case keenum, 261 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: I mean any And don't try to sell us case 262 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: keenum either, but the Redskins have been trying to sell 263 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: us something subpar for a very long time now. And 264 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: it's crazy to me that the Redskins in general don't 265 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: generate a lot more target fire than they do for 266 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: running the team they way they they have from that 267 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: front office on down, it's ridiculous. Their offense is not 268 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: improved at all from there the radar, which is for 269 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: Redskins fans who you know, saw them win three Super 270 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: Bowls and a little over a decade. It's hard to 271 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: believe this should be one of the you know, NFL 272 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: jewel franchises, and yet they're they're pretty far off the radar. 273 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,239 Speaker 1: And this situation where Jay Gruden maybe didn't want Dwayne Haskins, 274 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: you know, this is where it comes home to roost, 275 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 1: where you're hearing these whispers about Haskins, which may be 276 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: true or not. And you can put two and two 277 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: together of how those whispers get out there, and the 278 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: front office and ownership might want one thing eventually, and 279 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: they'll get what they want. I mean, it's just a 280 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: matter of time. They play the Patriots in a couple 281 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: of weeks. I don't know. Maybe they're waiting behind that offense, 282 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: but I'm not saying it's a good idea even I 283 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: don't know. It's just it's just a mess. Yeah, draft, 284 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: I got to hide him though that doesn't happen in 285 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: the NFL anymore. But I don't think that's what I say. 286 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: It's a matter of times. They also didn't draft him 287 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: knowing that he would be a quicker student or not 288 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: a quick student. And it doesn't sound like he's picked 289 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: up the offense like some sort of robotron character in 290 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: five or six hours longer. Mean, Trent Williams is really 291 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: just hanging out there, just kind of forgot everyone's forgotten 292 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: about this left tackle. He is off the grid, hanging 293 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: out with Melvin Gordon. One good thing, Scary Terry impresses 294 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: me everything. Terry McLaren. He he might be the best 295 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: of all these rookie receivers. Uh was he even drafted 296 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: third round? But he was billed as like the best 297 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: special teams prospect that you'll ever see in a draft, 298 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: and it turns out he might have been the best 299 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: receiver instead. Where are you on tight end? Jeremy Sprinkle? 300 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: Who's times than I needed last night? And don't throw 301 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: the ball to him anymore? Please, Okay, let's do some news. 302 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: Sprinkle takes a straight and I want to be being 303 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: my one of my old co workers that the ladder 304 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: off the off the trump and raise it up and 305 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: because it sis the people down, my man just start 306 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: throwing babies out the window. He was catching Unlike the 307 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: Eagles receiver who has had some issues with drops in 308 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: ball security early this season. That was a Philadelphia resident 309 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: who was involved um with a fire within the city limits. 310 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: That led to a brave individual going into a room 311 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: with babies and tossing the babies out the window and 312 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: the babies being caught and shout out to Nelson Agilor, 313 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: who gets put on blast wildly leading off the six 314 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: o'clock news and invites that man and his family to 315 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: an upcoming Eagles game. So good on Nelson. One quick 316 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: note on that, because we get to talk about football endlessly. 317 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: If suddenly you're just a working man and you're in 318 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: part of a rescue effort and you find yourself on 319 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: the six o'clock news for probably the only time in 320 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: your entire life, got to get your football commentary in 321 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: there where you can. I don't like that he took 322 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: l Aghalore down that way, but you've got to use 323 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: that moment. And I thought it was an aware a 324 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: bit of broadcast team the Rescue Men, New Bagel Boss potentially. 325 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: I love it. I love I mean, he just slid 326 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: that in there like it was it was at the time. 327 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: He also us right at the camera while he was 328 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: saying it. There was that look of kind of disgusted, 329 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: like you know what I'm talking, like how many babies 330 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: are we talking? The way it sounded like it was 331 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: like like a nursery six seven at a time. It 332 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: was like it was like you you might have pumped 333 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: that stat up a little. I know you guys don't care, 334 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: and I know he made that drop. But he still 335 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: did get twenty two points in Fantasy this week, so 336 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: he still was You know, he's not terrible, but it's 337 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: because Carson ways no one else to throw to, so 338 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: he keeps on pumping it into the guy who can't 339 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: catch the ball well to touch. You don't think you're 340 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: gonna score two touchdowns in the NFL game when you're 341 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: ten years old and then getting assassinated on the six 342 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: o'clock news. Well, maybe baby is easier to catch than 343 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: the football. I don't think you know, that seems unlikely. Well, 344 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: there's more to grab onto. There's arms, there's legs, sentient 345 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: being versus object. You need the lighting, Well you got 346 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: the fire coming off the building, all right, Um, a 347 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: lot more pressure with a baby. Let's check it in 348 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: some big injury news here, Cam Newton, who we know 349 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 1: was shut down after reaggorating at foot injury. Well, we 350 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: have a problem here because Tom Palaicero of the NFL 351 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: Network reported Tuesday that the Panthers quarterback is believed to 352 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: be dealing with Oh that Harlot, that wretched woman, Liz Frank. 353 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: She's bad. Oh, she is a terrible woman. It's a 354 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: Liz Frank injury he's dealing with in the arch of 355 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: his foot, and as we know, the Liz Frank injury 356 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: is very rarely good news for an NFL player. The 357 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: plan for now for Newton is to continue rehabbing an 358 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: avoid surgery, but he could be sidelined for some time. Uh. 359 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: Perhaps ominously, Ron Rivera, who ruled out Newton quickly on 360 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 1: Monday and announced Kyle Allen to be starting again UH, 361 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: did not put a timetable on Newton's recovery, which, yes, 362 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: again points to this potentially being a lengthy absence. The 363 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: Redskins medical staff has taken some heat uh for mismanaging 364 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: their players. Trent Williams, how about the Panthers kind of 365 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: having the exact same problem that they had with Cam 366 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: Newton just two years ago, where they rushed him back 367 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: to the field too quickly. He ended up not playing 368 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: too well with his shoulder injury and it became a 369 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: bigger issue long term. He hurt this foot in the 370 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: third week of the preseason. Seemed like a fairly serious 371 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: injury at the time, and they, of course he wants 372 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: to be back on the field, and he got back 373 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: on the field for Week one, and there's no official 374 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: report of when he reheard it, but it sounds like 375 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: it was early in the second quarter of Week one. 376 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: I mean, they they regret, they have to regret that 377 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: decision that they rushed him back and it's now gonna 378 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: hurt his season. I'm with Mark. I feel like there 379 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: is a chance there's a huge house cleaning coming with 380 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers, and it might just include medical staff 381 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: if this ends up being a situation where they brought 382 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: him back too soon and your franchise star in a 383 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: pivotal season in his career rex his foot. To Greg's point, 384 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: it feels like Dejalvio. It's like, we've don't we've seen 385 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: these stories with the Panthers sort of over now, what 386 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: if he were to resort at some point to platelet 387 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: rich injections, gregre where are you. Well, I'm not sandwich 388 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: prop you're I haven't heard one. That is a long 389 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: way to go in the season. There were whispers of one, 390 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: get your lunch. I want to get the specifics of that. Yes, 391 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: I I said there would be more PRPs platelet rich 392 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: plasma in Jackson's or whatever in the season than Cardinals victories. Well, 393 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: I think it's tied zero zero right now. You're doing fine. Um, 394 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: I helped you out. A couple of forty Niners fans 395 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: have sent me some stuff, but uh, a man of integrity. 396 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: They were referring to Jerick McKinnon and defour that the 397 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: surgery has been mentioned. But those guys got it in 398 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: the preseason before I put this out there, so I 399 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: have not seen one happen in the regular Just for 400 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: bookkeeping and again Nick Fortier and go get my lunch 401 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: dot org Um Mark and West took you up on this. 402 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: Greg I stayed away, well right now at zero zero, 403 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: like he stayed away. It seems like a suicide mission. 404 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: We have the root for the Cardinals everywhere. It was 405 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: too murky, and I didn't I don't like murky. Ricky. 406 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: I had asked you to reach out to all the 407 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: major news outlets. Yeah, I'm tracking it just to make 408 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: sure we have everyone accounted for. Yeah, TMZ said get 409 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: a hobbied in ouch ouch ouch out nailed it. See 410 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 1: is who Erica thinks immediately as the best news source 411 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: dot com articles. Don't do news articles. You know. I 412 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: have to speak on this. I do feel like since uh, 413 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: the Greg Rosenthal about any project with a comedian friend, 414 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: since that has ramped up and Ricky has become talent 415 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 1: on that show, the relationship between Greg and Ricky seems 416 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: to be deteriorating before our very eyes. Everybody was picking 417 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: that up. I mean we're peaking, I mean from a 418 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: different angle. I mean in terms of you know, show 419 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,479 Speaker 1: contents and you know, I don't think that would have 420 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean she she her roles stayed the same throughout 421 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: on that. I don't. I don't think I would. Are 422 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 1: you change, Erica? Is your relationship with Greg good right now? Yes? 423 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: Or no? I would say medium s. The closer we get, 424 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: the more Greg feels like he can like talk to 425 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: me in a specific way, you know what I mean. 426 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: But you but we're close, but that doesn't you know, 427 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: he he's more comfortable with me, so he can get 428 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: away with saying, but I'm taking notes. You know, you 429 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: know there have been scandals that have been built on 430 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: smaller mode. It's not even it's not scandals, not scandalous. 431 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: I would it would be. It would be more interesting 432 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: if it was scandalous. He's like, that should be a 433 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,640 Speaker 1: hyphen and matchup next next time, just f y I 434 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: And this is how Greg jokes around. He does the 435 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: same thing with Brasci. I mean, I think Eric is 436 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: worried that it's like apathy is taking has taken over 437 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 1: the relationships to anything. And yes, I've got to tell 438 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: you you're spelling errors on your sonop.

Pat Schurmer, the Giants coach, later 470 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: confirmed the injury, did not offer confirm the injury, but 471 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: did not offer a timetable for a return, And um, Greg, 472 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: you're good at this insider wars stuff. But notably, Adam Schefter, 473 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,959 Speaker 1: the ESPN version of rap sheet UH set the timetable 474 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 1: UH closer to eight weeks. I think he said it 475 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: at four to eight weeks, with the more likely scenario 476 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: being closer to the UH deeper end of the pool 477 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: on that one sighting like I just said, the specifics 478 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 1: of the injury, it's it's a hard in really get 479 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 1: back from. Yeah, I think I think the NFL dot 480 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: com is saying that too. Tom Pauli Sero at least 481 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: after was he was really hinting strongly that it wouldn't 482 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: be until after the week eleven by that we'd see 483 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: him again. I also think that Giants and teams are 484 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: strategic in the way they put these out there because 485 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: they never want to put the player in a bad 486 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: position where he comes back later than the timeline. So 487 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: you so, yeah, it is more likely and if he 488 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: comes back early, if I'm putting out a report four 489 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: to six, as the reporter gives me less wiggle room 490 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: than four to eight. Four to eight, you know you 491 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: have two more weeks to have been factually correct. And 492 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: after watching the Giants offense for a second time minus 493 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: Sequon Barkley, that's I'm not trying to delve into sacrilege here. 494 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: Take for to eight. Take some time, is your point here? 495 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: They look fantastic without him, but they weren't running the ball. Well, 496 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: maybe we don't need to run hundred times again. Wouldn't 497 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 1: they look even better again? I mean, I think he's 498 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: a great player to us was a very very small 499 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: sample size, but they got my blood flowing for the 500 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: first time in roughly nine two thousand days, blown all 501 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,439 Speaker 1: over the place. Take whatever you will from it. I 502 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: think four to eight weeks is cheating in the entire game. 503 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,479 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a that's a look in the 504 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: don't tell go tell Adam Schefter that he's I mean, 505 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: I don't know him personally, but you either have to 506 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:24,959 Speaker 1: go four to six or six to eight. You go 507 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: four to eight, your head and your bets. What if 508 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,959 Speaker 1: he was told for eight, wouldn't you go with what 509 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: you were told I'd say to that source, I need 510 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: something a little bit more. This is a human body question, 511 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter. I go back to that guy. In fact, 512 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: I go to the guy that told me four to 513 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: eight and I say screw you, and I go find 514 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: another source that can give me a better That is 515 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: what they would call relationship build. Who would who would 516 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: have thought that marks uh giants are better off without? 517 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: Say Kwan Barkley would be the second hottest take of 518 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 1: this segment. I'm just writing down. I think it's roughly 519 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: predictable at the owner's meetings. I'm gonna find Schefter and 520 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: go see that guy over there, Dan. He said that 521 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: he was totally When you're done. When you're done with Schefter, 522 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: go find Jay Glazer. Dan said his mail back sucks. 523 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: You know what, in the I never said that, not 524 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: a definitive Malasi come after you at Schefter. I wouldn't 525 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: I feel like he'd be like, oh, he's very nice 526 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: guy like Schefter. He just he's too confident in himself 527 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: and comfortable. He would just this will say Oh, that's 528 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: that's probably his own issues he's working out. I hope 529 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: he feels better. He wouldn't be right, though it's also 530 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: why Ian doesn't have any friends because in the Insider 531 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: Game it's it's very cutthroat, and as a member of 532 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: that game, I understand that I didn't come here to 533 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: make friends. I came here to deliver the best news, 534 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: the most accurate news to the people. Wait, so you're 535 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: saying that Ian's ploy um to name his podcast rap 536 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: Sheet and Friends as a way to finally have friends. 537 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: I mean there's a cry. Yeah, it was a little 538 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: Can we just say what it is, which is a 539 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: cry for help or it's a way to keep Mike 540 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 1: Garret following pallisera down. I mean, they're just and friends, please, 541 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: and you and I go way back, but we all 542 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: know he doesn't. What do you got for John Clayton? 543 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: You've thrown every other inside or under the bus I 544 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: got I will say nothing about Clayton. I wrap your 545 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: heart out. Um. Anyway, so se Quon's out, Uh and 546 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: finally in the news. Uh, let's say a prayer for 547 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey. I know we all come from different religious backgrounds, 548 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: and some of us are practicing and some of us aren't. 549 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: But Jalen Ramsey is ill and Uh, there's no way 550 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: connected to his trade demand, because he wouldn't do that 551 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: because he called the press conference last week he said, 552 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to be a distraction here. I don't 553 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: know how this got out. I don't want to be 554 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: a distraction. I want to be the best player I 555 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: can for the Jaguars. But now he's ill, and he 556 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: missed practice, and we don't know as of this recording 557 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: mark whether he has recovered from this unidentified illness. So 558 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: all you can do is prey take out the rosary. Yeah. 559 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: I mean his focus is a laser focus. That much 560 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: we know, and so this is something unforeseen. Uh and 561 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: certainly not premeditated on any level. I take it very seriously. 562 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: Can't schedule the flu. But he played really well the 563 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: last two weeks he has, yes, yeah, not. The only 564 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: issue I have is with the whole the way you 565 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: issued the press conference, because everyone was begging him them 566 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: to have a pres Scott, he had no choice. They 567 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: make they make you address the media. Well, that gets like, 568 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: that gets in the way of the fun that we're 569 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: the team and that's what we wants him to do 570 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: it that is it's all fun. Fun. No in season 571 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: trade requesting. You don't have a press cot. It sounds 572 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: like the Jaguars, you know, don't do not want to 573 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,479 Speaker 1: trade him, which I I thought was significant, or they 574 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: can't get two first round picks. I think their owner 575 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: distinctly did right now. I think they their owner coming 576 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: on NFL network on that afternoon before they play and 577 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: making it very clear that he's not too interested in 578 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: trading Jalen Ramsey was a significant uh moment for him 579 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: to say, I'm the boss here. Uh. He he might 580 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: have issues with his coach. I'm evaluating everyone. I don't 581 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: really want to get rid of Jalen Ramsey at this 582 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: time where I'm evaluating the guys that want to get 583 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 1: rid of them. They might not be here a year 584 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: from now. Fair enough around absolutely that that that could 585 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: be a hot butt too. Let's get into it. That's 586 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: what's happening in the news. Yes, no doubt. Samuel Jackson's 587 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: most memorable line in any film ever, maybe the only 588 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: iconic line of his that doesn't have a m effort 589 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: in it or a swear word of some kind. Yeah, 590 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: you're not. No one's ever done it better. Sam Jackson, 591 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: whole famer. All right, they don't have a Hall of 592 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: Fame for actors. I guess it's just winning Oscars. Yeah, 593 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: but you know what, they're pretty liberal about handing those out. 594 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: I went out to dinner with my podcast friend Bob 595 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: the other day and I saw Al Michael's has a 596 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which is awesome, 597 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: But you know, Al's a sportscaster. Oh, I mean, but 598 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: he's in the there's I feel like he's in at 599 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: least the middle class of who has those there's. There's 600 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: a lot of bigger stretches than that than now, Like 601 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: he's been part of the number one show for a while, 602 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: so yeah, he's a big, big, big guy television history. Alright, 603 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: bad example, but there are a lot of people. If 604 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: you taste like the third lead on basically that CBS 605 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: show with Melissa McCarthy and the and her husband, you 606 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: know it has a star in the Walk of Fame, 607 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: take a walk on the Hollywood Boulevard and you'll be 608 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: taken aback by some of the people that have that treatment. 609 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: There are some low level names, and that removes the 610 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: luster from a Sam Jackson, who I'm sure has a star. Uh, 611 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: there should be Uh, you gotta pay, you gotta pay 612 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: fifty tho bucks to get a star or something like that, 613 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: which is like the most repeated fact that's annoying. But yeah, 614 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: you have to pay for your own star. It's just 615 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: a self promotion. I'll think you have to be like 616 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: chosen to be able to pay for it, but ultimately 617 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: you're a little douche even to go for it. Maybe 618 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: they should have a different street in Hollywood that's for 619 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: the real stars. So, like Harrison throws, I don't think 620 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: it's fifty but you have to pay for it. But 621 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: the upkeep to those towards the upkeep and everything, well 622 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: a couple of them get, you know, regularly smashed. Yes, 623 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: some for good reason. All right, let's get into it. 624 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: Uh quarterbacks, backup quarterbacks, assuming to the starring role. Starring role, 625 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: Hollywood said hold the fort or all right, let's uh 626 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: started off with Chris Wesling. Take one of these young 627 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: passers and let us know where you stand on them 628 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: based on what you've seen so far. Well, to me, 629 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,239 Speaker 1: the most intra steven one as of the brink of 630 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: week four is the Steelers in Mason Rudolph because of 631 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: I guess the the weighty results for this year. If 632 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: if they draft in the top five, they won't be 633 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: able to get a quarterback of the future. Because the 634 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: Dolphins have their draft pick, they need to win games. 635 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: And I don't remember the last time I've seen a 636 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: game plan like this where it was just come out 637 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: and throw tunnel screens to your receivers, the tunnel screens 638 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: to nowhere that the defense saw coming and there was 639 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: no offense whatsoever for a while. And this is his 640 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: Job's Halder, I don't think he can He can't succeed 641 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: in this offense until they fixed the running game. And 642 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: Greg has pointed out that they missed Mike Munchak. On 643 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: the offensive line, James Conner is the easiest runner in 644 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: the league to bring down on first contact. This season, 645 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: that is bad. He's not breaking tackles like he did 646 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: last year, so that's a problem. And I think I 647 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: think the offensive line knows, like, Okay, it's on us now. 648 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: We have to fix this running game or else Mason 649 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: Rudolph has no shot. I don't think the offense looked 650 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: great with Big Ben in there either, and he is 651 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: tough too. You can't unsaddle from Big Ben next year 652 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: contract wise, that's a tough ask. And I don't, but 653 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: but the on the only thing I'd say in terms 654 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,760 Speaker 1: of more time needed is that they've talked about Mason Rudolph, 655 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: which they didn't do with a lot of these other 656 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: jabronies they brought in behind Big Ben over the years 657 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: as their most likely potential quarterback of the future. They 658 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: love his traits. He's size wise perfect, he's got a 659 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: big arm, and I kind of liked what he did 660 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: in that first appearance when he came in in relief 661 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: of Big Ben. Last week was a big step down 662 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,879 Speaker 1: against a surging defense, So I just want to see more. 663 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: Even in that first appearance, which had you know, eight 664 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: or nine good plays, it was mostly all really easily 665 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: defined one read, and that's not really playing quarterback as 666 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: much as it's following coaching. Well, the weird thing is 667 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: his reputation is his strength is going down field and 668 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: being aggressive. And in his first NFL start he had 669 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,479 Speaker 1: the fewest completions that passed the line of scrimmage since 670 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow played. He had too they were both touchdown, 671 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: so you know, he made him count. But that's insane 672 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: that it was the most condensed offense since the Tim 673 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: Tebow era. It watching the game. He definitely seemed to 674 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: get better as it progressed. The numbers tell you that 675 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: with the two touchdown passes, even though Juju did most 676 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: of the work and the first one, I would I'm 677 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: definitely in the hold onto your butt zone on this one. Um. 678 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: I was expecting a little bit more in week one, 679 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't say I'd be in a panic mode yet. 680 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: I just think he needs more reps. He's he's green. 681 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: America should be in a panic. They're in primetime for 682 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: the next seven weeks. Well, that's against the Bengals, against 683 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: the Chargers, against the Dolphins on Monday night football. Can't 684 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: flicks out of that, hope, opens up more time for 685 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: hobbies that you might be interested on the side, and 686 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: then against the Browns on Thursday night football. In weekly level, 687 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: this is the biggest hold onto your butt situation on 688 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: this list. I'm with you. It's a wild ride for 689 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: the next what twelve weeks. The draft book, the aspect 690 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: really puts so much on this. If this ends up 691 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: being the number three or five pick for the Dolphins, 692 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: he needs help. He's not getting it from his receivers, 693 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: he's not getting it from his line and he's not 694 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,919 Speaker 1: getting his from his running backs, and this game plan 695 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: wasn't giving him help either. If they if they have 696 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: the third or fifth pick in this draft, and they're 697 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: not gonna have because they're giving it away. But if 698 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: they're in that position, I don't know who's gonna be 699 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: making picks for them or who's gonna be coaching this team. 700 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: There may be a major transition, and that changes everything 701 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,959 Speaker 1: for a quarterback that's already on the roster. I don't 702 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: none of us are college heads. Although Mark, you're starting 703 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: to really dig into it on Saturdays. What do you 704 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: mean by digging watching fourteen different Division two guys like 705 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: I drove down the street and saw it through a 706 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: window of a sports bar. But other than that, for 707 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: roughly e I'm jumping in on this two thousand nineteen 708 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 1: green wave just in time, Greg, I mean that's like 709 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 1: the only highlight I saw from last week. And wearing 710 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: powder blue jersey, I mean you get a fake victory 711 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: formation run and then a sixty three yard touchdown to 712 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: win the game. Uh, their first time on ESPN in 713 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: like a decade. Please, um Northeastern University, my alma mater 714 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: up in Boston, discontinued their football program. In my alma mater, 715 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: Hucka Poos made it to the Flag Football Championship in 716 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: two thousand and eleven. Wes, how have you survived without 717 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: a college degree? How have you made it? I think 718 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: just bumbling around and landing place. It's probably just riding 719 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal shirt tails for a while. That's the way 720 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: to succeed. All right, Mark, give us so what is 721 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: the verdict for us? It's this is the biggest hold 722 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: onto your butt on the list. This is the quintessential 723 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: hold onto your butt situation. Okay, Mark? I future wise, 724 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: looking down the down the line, I think it's a 725 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: hold onto your butts with Gardner Minshew, because like, this 726 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: is a quarterback that I know, understand. He's got the 727 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: persona around him, and he's getting more attention for most 728 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 1: people because of the facial hair and the overly old 729 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 1: picture of him with his you know, buttons down to 730 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: his belly. But I mean, will Brinson come back to us. 731 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,280 Speaker 1: If you're gonna put a photo out there on social 732 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: media and you're gonna make people think it's him getting 733 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 1: off the plane to play Week two, well that's misleading 734 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: the public. Well, I did not understand. I did not 735 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: want that to happen. Then I apologize for that, but 736 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: you've got you and you put all this money into 737 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: Nick Foles, and I can't think of someone that When 738 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: they gave that contract out, it felt like we're the 739 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: last team in the NFL that doesn't have an answer 740 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: at quarterback and we haven't drafted anyone in the last 741 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 1: time we drafted and extended turned into a total debacle. 742 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: So we're gonna overpay for a quarterback in Nick Foles, 743 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: who has been a great story. But there are durability 744 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: issues that we've talked about every single time we brought 745 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: up Nick Foles, and those played out again, and I 746 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: realize you can't predict that stuff, but it has been 747 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: part of his career, and Nick Foles on the field 748 00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: as an NFL starter is an unknown commodity. And Gardner 749 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: minshew what I would say, at the very least he's 750 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: doing if he comes in for the rest of this 751 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: season and plays the way he's played, I think they 752 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,280 Speaker 1: he's a good match for John d Filippa in that offense, 753 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: and they've opened up and given him trust to do 754 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: a lot to play aggressively every game he's made aggressive 755 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: throws down field and sort of shaken awake a wide 756 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 1: receiving corps that's been asleep for a long long time. 757 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: I like all that stuff. The last thing I'll say 758 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: is if he he kind of gives me and he's 759 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: a better quarterback than Colt McCoy, but a kind of 760 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: person that is essentially right now ensuring that he can 761 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: play in the NFL for the next seven, eight, nine, 762 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: ten years. If he can give you this, he is 763 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: giving himself a career. When Samuel Jackson says hold onto 764 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: your bucks in Jurassic Park, he doesn't know that he's 765 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: going to die. All he knows that our lives are 766 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: never going to be the same after this. Again, it 767 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: could be Yeah, that was deep blue se I think. 768 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: I think he dies, but they don't show. I'm gonna 769 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: google it because there was a there was a hurricane 770 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: on the island to Kauai while they were filming, and 771 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: they never filmed his death. To your point, there doesn't 772 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: know if he is or he's not deep knowledge. We 773 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,479 Speaker 1: don't know, So Gardner Minshew, something life changing is about 774 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: to happen for the Jaguars. They just don't know where 775 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna go, and there's a chance that Nick Foles 776 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: never gets his job back. That's among the possibilities that 777 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: could happen. Would understand that journey better than some other 778 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: quarterbacks exactly. There's also a chance that this saves the 779 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,720 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey era in Jacksonville. Maybe Minshew play so well 780 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: that Ramsey has persuaded to drop his trade request. He's 781 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,479 Speaker 1: gonna need a lot of help from from the team 782 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: around him, and he got it in week three. We'll 783 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: see if that continues. I think the receivers are the 784 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 1: least of their problems. Uh, Charkin Conley have been a 785 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,479 Speaker 1: nice duo all three weeks. Whether the offensive line, whether 786 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: the running game, you know, the defense has to be 787 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: really good. He's been so composed it it's a little 788 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 1: it's not under the radar, but a sixth round rookie. 789 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: It's wild for a sixth round rookie to come in 790 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: and look so comfortable. And I do think the way 791 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: that college offenses have changed and the NFL is kind 792 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: of meeting them halfway, and especially these guys who are 793 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: coming out of the Mike Leech system. Kyle Allen is different, 794 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 1: but not so different. I mean Kyler Murray certainly. Uh, 795 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 1: they're ready to go, and I think the Jaguars are 796 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: smartly like playing to minshow strengths. He hasn't like lit 797 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: it up, but he's really been good avoiding mistakes and 798 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: he's really been good in making drives when he needed to, 799 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: including in Houston. I mean that could have been a 800 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: great moment. The drive that he led was awesome. Uh 801 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,479 Speaker 1: if they had hit that two point conversion. This from 802 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: the January eighth, two thousand and eighteen edition of The 803 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: Hollywood Reporter. Sam Jackson's Jurassic Park character was originally going 804 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: to die on screen. The actor says a hurricane ruined 805 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: his planned trip to Hawaii to shoot the scenes. So, uh, 806 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 1: the death is assumed, like you're saying um or presumed, 807 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: but it's not. It's never shown because they couldn't shoot 808 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: it because of the schedule got jacked up by a hurricane. 809 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: Should I be surprised? This isn't like some small independent 810 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: home hanging onto a minor budget. This is Jurassic Park. 811 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: They couldn't find a way to shoot this job somewhere. 812 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: Bad job by Spielberg that that feels like an unbelievable anecdotal, 813 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: but that like he like, that's probably his death, you 814 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,720 Speaker 1: know what, it wasn't like deep Lucy where him getting 815 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: eaten by the shark is essentially the point of the 816 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: entire movie is basically for that moment. You know, he's 817 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 1: a minor character in Jurassic Park, right, yeah? Sam Jackson also, 818 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: uh this from Ricky Hollywood. Um ironically the Hollywood Walk 819 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:39,240 Speaker 1: of Fame star awarded in the year two thousand. Alright, 820 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: throwing out there, Greg Rosenthal, are you fact checking me 821 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 1: right now? Greg? I just see you instantly start typing 822 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: as soon as you say that's a weird, really strange thing. 823 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 1: I know, I was. I was going to ask how 824 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: much of the the Hollywood start cost, just because I 825 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: wanted to follow up on my own. In fact, you've 826 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: already thrown a number out there, right, but I was 827 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: just guessing the current fee is forty thousand dollars pretty good? Yeah, yeah, 828 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: I had a rough idea i'd ever read it before 829 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: you up it for inflation from when you heard that story. 830 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: Who knows, all right, hold the fort or hold onto 831 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: your buck right through somebody else. I'm gonna say that 832 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen can hold the four I mean, I love 833 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: what I see. I don't want to react to two 834 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 1: NFL starts, but he was really composed against the Saints 835 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 1: starters in Week seventeen a year ago, I thought added 836 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: value to them. He did his damage against Saints starters, 837 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 1: and to me, that counts in your first NFL start, 838 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: whether the Saints had something to play for or not. 839 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: And then and then in this start, he added a 840 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 1: lot to that Panthers offense. I mean the throws he 841 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: made on third and long a couple of times where 842 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: they had a huge blitz. One time it's coming to 843 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: his left, another time it's to his right. Even in 844 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 1: the first drive, Uh, Chandler Jones is on him immediately 845 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 1: and what was essentially a busted play, and he was 846 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: composed enough and knew where Greg Olsen was gonna be 847 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 1: to put it up for greg Olsen to try to 848 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 1: make a pay. Olsen didn't on that play, but they 849 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: did throughout the game. These were not regular Hey, it's 850 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: your guy and your first start. Let's just count on 851 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: him to get rid of the ball. He did plenty 852 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: of that too. He made terrific plays on the run 853 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: and looked as comfortable in that offense as possible. It 854 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 1: looked like he had been running it forever, so I 855 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 1: think he can hold the ford. I want to overreact 856 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: to command. I liked when they were down inside the 857 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: five yard line and Greg Little, the rookie filling in 858 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: a left tackle, had a false start and he Kyle Allen, 859 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 1: just threw the ball on the ground, disgusted with the 860 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: left tackle. I mean it was like, Okay, what are 861 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: we doing blowing up this chance to score? Um. I 862 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: think the big question with him. The ball placement and 863 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,439 Speaker 1: timing were such a welcome improvement on the injured version 864 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 1: of Cam from the first two weeks. There was this 865 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: offense was in sync. The question is how does he 866 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: deal with pressure behind an offensive line that has been 867 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: very hit or missed this year and the left tackle 868 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: Darryl Williams, who was injured during last week's game, has 869 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: been a problem this year. Thought they played great in 870 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: that game and he invited pressure a few times, but 871 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 1: he did really great against pressure when it when it 872 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,479 Speaker 1: did come. I got lucky because I had a great 873 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: draft last week. With the games I drafted and created 874 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: a very uh you know, a Sunday that fit together 875 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 1: very well, and I got to watch the Cardinals first, 876 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: the Panthers the extended full broadcast versus condensed which now 877 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: chucks in and about fifty eight minutes. But I will 878 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 1: say this the Kyle Allen, there's the end of the 879 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: spectrum of the quarterback that when he comes over to 880 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: the sideline after a good play or a good driver 881 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: or not, he's kind of one of the dudes and 882 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: the guys around him are magnetized by him. He has that. 883 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: And I thought on the other end, and I don't know, 884 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 1: it's not a shot anyway, Dan at your Jets, But 885 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 1: when they put when they did a disservice to put 886 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: Trevor Simeon on Mike for that Monday night game, and 887 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: you got the quotes before the game, He's like, all right, guys, 888 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna be good. We're gonna be fine. Everything's okay. 889 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 1: It was like, that's not working. But Kyle Allen, to me, 890 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: was just one of the guys. Trevor Simeon personal I'm 891 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: pointing out because it comes back into my mind like 892 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 1: once a day that that was not the way I'd 893 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: want to be as a quarterback. Kyle Allen was just 894 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 1: one of the dudes. And he feels like totally at 895 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: home in play on field and on the sideline too. Hm, 896 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 1: I'll throw out Jacoby Brissett as an ultimate right now 897 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: hold the four guy. In fact, I think we use 898 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 1: that exact language on Sunday when going over their most 899 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 1: recent win. Uh A game where who they beating again 900 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: on Sunday Falcons. Yes, he completed his first sixteen passes. 901 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 1: Looks so comfortable in this offense and very rarely does 902 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: you know? All the hype around a player in this 903 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 1: hype built very quickly immediately after Andrew Luck stunned the 904 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: world with that retirement, um, which just rocked the Patrick 905 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: Claiban barbecue to its core. I mean, just shut the 906 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: whole thing down. I'll never forget that. Yeah, that's a 907 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 1: never forget moment, poor Claiban. That's the Pearl Harbor of 908 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 1: like barbecue things like you know that. That's um, I 909 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 1: mean it now, you'll remember the barbecue forever though, so 910 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,359 Speaker 1: may I mean you had your three hours fun? Yeah, yeah, 911 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying it's not Port Claibon. It was epic. You're 912 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 1: just paralleled it to JFK's assassination in Pearl Harbor, not 913 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: in terms of like the the impact it had on 914 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: the nation in the world, but just one of those 915 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: famous flashpoint moments. I know exactly where I was when 916 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 1: it happened. And now you're thinking about Andrew Luck instead 917 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: of the great shrimp that he had a whole shrimp boil, 918 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: and Claibon probably is annoyed about it because everyone was 919 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: just talking about the Andrew Luck angle and nobody was 920 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 1: talking about all the trips he made to his boiler 921 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: to cook up a delicious shrimp boil. Jacoby Brissette sixteen 922 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 1: straight completions to start the game, um shows. Oh my 923 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: point being that very rarely do you get that hype about, Oh, 924 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna be okay because Jacoby Brissette. He's there, and 925 00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,319 Speaker 1: the cults like, oh, we love him, somebody, you know 926 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,719 Speaker 1: how much we of him. We're ripping up his contract, 927 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna pay him like a borderline like franchise quarterback. 928 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: And it was like, all right, Colts, calmed down a 929 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:08,879 Speaker 1: little bit here, you don't need to do this right now. Well, 930 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 1: guess what, he They look very smart right now because 931 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette is more than a hold the fourth guy. 932 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: He's a potential solution for them going forward. He's just 933 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 1: twenty six years old, and Um and Greg, I knew 934 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: it was a play call you loved by Frank Reich, 935 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 1: the UH play action rollout hit Jack Doyle to clinch 936 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: the game on third and four rather than run it, 937 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: run down the clock and try to go up six 938 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 1: with a field goal and ask your defense to get 939 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 1: a stop against the Falcons team that couldn't be stopped 940 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,760 Speaker 1: in the second half. That play call is only made 941 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 1: when a coach trusts his quarterback implicitly not to jack 942 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 1: it up. And Jacoby Brissett is not jacking it up. 943 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 1: He's doing the app opposite for the Cults right now, 944 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,319 Speaker 1: the inverse of hold onto your butts is stapility, stability, 945 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: and this Colts organization right now is all about infrastructure. 946 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 1: They just they're rock solid and stable as it gets 947 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 1: in that division. And Frank Wright, to me, that's why 948 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,439 Speaker 1: he's a hold the fork guy. He's not a whole 949 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: hold onto your butts because the floor is so much 950 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: higher with Frank Wright calling and designing the place. Yeah 951 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 1: it it helps, And I think you hit on the 952 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: organization's trust in him. I mean, I think that's the 953 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: way they run their team in general. They bring in 954 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:27,759 Speaker 1: o'carechy to take over for Darius Leonard last week, and 955 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 1: you you're stuck with Zach Pascal being like your number 956 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 1: one receiver at the end of that game. But they 957 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,279 Speaker 1: kind of trust in their coaching, similar to the Patriots 958 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: a little bit that that they're gonna be ready to go, 959 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 1: and they have a great track record, and that helps Brissette, 960 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: who I thinks looked about as good as I'm a 961 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 1: big fan of his, would have expected, not any better. 962 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 1: Like I don't think he's wowing anyone, um, but I 963 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,880 Speaker 1: think he's just he's a mid level starter, which is 964 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: not easy to find in the NFL. I like when 965 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,359 Speaker 1: I when they extended him, it didn't throw me, just 966 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 1: because they seemed to truly believe in the guys they have. 967 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of these teams that throughout these 968 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 1: self prop up contracts and extensions that we all can 969 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 1: look at sideways and be like, you drafted this guy 970 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: is not working out, and you want to make it 971 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:16,320 Speaker 1: look like he's working. Sanchez the Rams before, Sean McVeigh 972 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 1: did a little bit of that where it was just like, 973 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 1: look at us, where we're extending our own draft picks, 974 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: even though everyone else feels these guys are so far 975 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 1: The cults never hit me that way with Sette because 976 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 1: they've always talked him up West. Keep us rolling, Baby, 977 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,959 Speaker 1: Danny Dimes. Oh, I think I know where this is going. 978 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 1: The answer to this question means more to the Giants 979 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: than any other team on this list. He's gotta be, 980 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 1: he's got to be the solution. He's gotta build a fort, 981 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 1: he's gotta be. He's gotta be. Hold onto your button 982 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: a good way. I'm taking you for a ride. And 983 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 1: the I think the question for me is how much 984 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: can we really know based on preseason in one start? 985 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,880 Speaker 1: Take Marcus Mariota, for example, who had just as my 986 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 1: glowing praise written about his first August and then had 987 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 1: a perfect passer rating and an even better debut than 988 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 1: Danny Dimes. Happened in Nashville, so you didn't hear about 989 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: it as much. But it's not guaranteed that Danny Dimes 990 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: is gonna go on and be the solution. But I 991 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 1: think this is the best imaginable start for Giants fans. 992 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 1: I have, you know, as a New Yorker, I have 993 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: a ton of Giants fans that Uh, you know my 994 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: buddies back home that we text about sports and whatnot, 995 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: and as you might expect, they're on fire right now. 996 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: And my buddy Mark asked, the question is was that 997 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:34,800 Speaker 1: the greatest debut um by a quarterback of first start 998 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,919 Speaker 1: ever debut? And that's a loaded question. But the first 999 00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 1: game that came to mind for me was r G 1000 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 1: three and two thousand twelve. That to me is always 1001 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,960 Speaker 1: going to be like kind of the goat um debut. 1002 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: But I was wondering if you guys had any other 1003 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 1: that come to mind that approach or surpass what Uh 1004 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:55,719 Speaker 1: Jones was able to do. I mean, Kyle Allen, if 1005 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: if Sunday was his first starts basically pitched the perfect game, 1006 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 1: I think, what what Danton you're referencing specifically, they're also 1007 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: kind of the marquis nature of the like sending a 1008 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 1: notice right, And I think r G three that's got 1009 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: to be the top of the list. But the juxtaposition 1010 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:17,400 Speaker 1: of how destroyed the Giants were around drafting Daniel Jones 1011 00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: and everything around everything they did with Eli Manning to 1012 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 1: have his debut shock Giant not about shock but please 1013 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: them and please us and change the way we think 1014 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 1: about the Giants in the course of four hours. That's 1015 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,800 Speaker 1: about as good of a debut as that front office 1016 00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: could have ever imagined in their wildest dreams. And a guy, 1017 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 1: and I'll take out the burn book on this, but 1018 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: a guy that was completely written off by so many 1019 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: people that follow this sport and cover this sport just 1020 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 1: because you didn't like what the GM was doing. Well, 1021 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: I think I'm not I'm not selling arrows in this 1022 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 1: room because it was it was a lot of people 1023 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 1: that were doing it. But he was completely disregarded as 1024 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,800 Speaker 1: a prospect and a talent because the Draft Knicks didn't 1025 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 1: think he deserves to go number six, and because people 1026 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: were annoyed with Dave Gentleman for what was a suspect offseason. 1027 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:08,719 Speaker 1: But this proves why you have to hold your commentary 1028 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,359 Speaker 1: until the guy plays, especially if you didn't watch him 1029 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 1: in college, If you draft people weren't watching. You're a 1030 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: draft analyst, a draft nick, and you hated Daniel Jones 1031 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: is a prospect and he and he works out. You 1032 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 1: just were really wrong on that. And I don't I 1033 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: don't kill people for having that opinion, which was I 1034 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:30,759 Speaker 1: think the majority of it was people I thought he 1035 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 1: was overdrafted. Thought he was like a second round you know, 1036 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: type of talent who was interesting but couldn't lift up 1037 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: a duke team. But you know, sometimes the coaching that 1038 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 1: you get and the poor teammates around you, kind of 1039 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: like Marson Wentz was at North Dakota State. Yeah, I 1040 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 1: don't think that the Giants have escaped all criticism because 1041 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 1: of this. It's really nice if this works out for them, 1042 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,319 Speaker 1: but they have not done everything perfectly. I think it 1043 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:58,479 Speaker 1: was like a learning lesson potentially for the Twitter mob. Well, 1044 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,360 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of those that people will have not 1045 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 1: learned from, so it might be the first time they learn. 1046 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,280 Speaker 1: But this is a prominent example of why you should 1047 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 1: not uh not a draft pick immediately based on other thing. 1048 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 1: I'm not talking the player, I'm talking the way that 1049 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,439 Speaker 1: Giants have organized themselves over the past couple of years. 1050 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 1: Is a totally separate It was organized, but it it 1051 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 1: raises an interesting question. I mean, we are as aggressively 1052 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 1: wrong about Daniel Jones is I mean about a lot 1053 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:29,320 Speaker 1: of things as people were about Daniel Jones throughout every 1054 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: season that we do this show. It's it's sort of 1055 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 1: part I mean, whether you come, you gotta come to 1056 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,760 Speaker 1: terms with that or not. But it's just it's true. 1057 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: What my point is, it just happened to be and 1058 00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:42,880 Speaker 1: everyone wrong. For instance, on a player, Let's say, I 1059 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,439 Speaker 1: don't know, I came to mind Adrian Peterson going into 1060 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 1: last season whether he could play anymore, and then you 1061 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,439 Speaker 1: know we're writing him off west as he could still play. 1062 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: We were wrong, but we were basing that on the 1063 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 1: people that were wrong in this room, what we had 1064 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: seen from him, his age, his offensive is in. We're 1065 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 1: basically on knowledge that we had in we just made 1066 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 1: the wrong call. Some of this General Jones Joesph was 1067 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,640 Speaker 1: just unfair. I mean, this guy got booed out of 1068 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium throwing out the first pitch because the media 1069 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 1: and the fans got so worked up with the idea 1070 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 1: that the Giants couldn't get it right, and he just 1071 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 1: got right. The same thing as Warrens, you know, the Jets, 1072 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:21,400 Speaker 1: you know, fans booing Kyle Brady when he was drafted. 1073 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 1: Like it's just in this case, the Giants looked like 1074 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,919 Speaker 1: they're going to be right about Kyle Brady. The flip 1075 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:30,319 Speaker 1: side of that Adrian Peterson conversation was that I did 1076 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 1: the same thing with Joe Flacco and was dead wrong 1077 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:34,840 Speaker 1: about him. But I think I'll be so sure. The 1078 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 1: key point is, are you doing your research and put 1079 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: it in the effort to have that opinion that it's 1080 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,439 Speaker 1: coming from an honest place. And it's hard to it's 1081 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 1: hard to fault people who are doing the work and 1082 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,400 Speaker 1: then trusting their eyes, because that's the whole job description. 1083 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 1: If you're an analyst, or if you're anybody who talks 1084 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,560 Speaker 1: about the sport, do the work and trust your eye. 1085 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 1: I would, and don't say something phony. I would suggest 1086 00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 1: that everyone on Twitter is doing the search and trusting 1087 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: their eyes. Yes, all right, Mark, we have a couple more. 1088 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 1: You want to throw another one out there, Well, how 1089 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: how does Teddy Bridgewater? Can we can we squeeze him 1090 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 1: into this exercise? My thing with Teddy Bridgewater because I 1091 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: think one of the links here is these guys are 1092 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,000 Speaker 1: young and their careers ahead of them, and we don't 1093 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 1: have a lot to base anything on with Teddy Bridgewater. 1094 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,000 Speaker 1: And you know, Wes, you made the point that you 1095 00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 1: feel like he's just not who he was before the injury, 1096 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: and it's kind of feels like, how could you say here, 1097 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: we're not getting the same player, and so you there's 1098 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: total empathy for the journey that he's had to go on, 1099 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,399 Speaker 1: and and it's like this player that I totally root for, 1100 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 1: but these other guys that when I watched Daniel Jones 1101 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 1: again today and I watched what he did, like, I 1102 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 1: just don't get it. I remember when I was on 1103 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:53,720 Speaker 1: high school football team and basically just that there stacking numbers, 1104 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 1: get that five ft seven kid out there and put 1105 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: him out there for practice. But we had this kid 1106 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: come in and play quarterback from another city, and he 1107 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: was like a real football player with a bust of 1108 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: forget the rest of us, and like from the first 1109 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: practice he started to throw the ball, our offense changed, 1110 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:10,719 Speaker 1: and everyone we were like fourteen fifteen years old, we 1111 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: all knew that something was different. I just don't feel 1112 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 1: that way about Teddy Bridgewater on any level right now. 1113 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 1: And he's perfectly fine too. I guess hold the fort 1114 00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 1: until Breeze gets back, because I don't know what else 1115 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna do. I would rather see Taysom Hill, though, 1116 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 1: like curiosity is much higher to see the other quarterback 1117 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 1: on the roster. We don't hear game manager in today's 1118 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 1: NFL as much as we did a decade ago. But 1119 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 1: that's what the Saints want Teddy to be is just 1120 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:41,280 Speaker 1: managed the game, don't mess up. Let our offensive playmakers 1121 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 1: do this, let our defense and special teams help and 1122 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 1: hold the fort until Drew brees. I think they're gonna 1123 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 1: need to add some elements as this goes forward. How 1124 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 1: it worked out Sunday was perfect. I mean, similar to Rudolph. 1125 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 1: He barely threw the ball past the you know, five 1126 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: ten yards. I think there's only two throws over ten 1127 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: yards in that game. Then it any. He got the 1128 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,440 Speaker 1: job done. He's all. He's a month younger than Brissette. 1129 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: He's twenty six years old. So I do think there's 1130 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 1: a chance that Teddy Bridgewater, the story of him coming 1131 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 1: back is is a great story. I mean even if 1132 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: he just wins some games and he is a good backup, like, 1133 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: that's a great story. Um. But I think there's a 1134 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 1: chance that he has more to do in his career. 1135 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: He just hasn't. He hasn't shown it yet in this 1136 00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: comeback was close this out. Josh Rosen, m hmm, hold 1137 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 1: onto your butts or hold the four. I think he's 1138 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: he's a hold onto your buck guy. We don't. We 1139 00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 1: don't know what he is because he hasn't played behind 1140 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 1: the real offensive line in the NFL yet. I have 1141 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 1: not been impressed with him. I know Greg has seen 1142 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 1: some throws he really likes. There's been some great throws, 1143 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 1: but it's just wild. It's a wild ride. I can 1144 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 1: envision other quarterbacks in those situations playing better than he has. 1145 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,960 Speaker 1: Certainly you could play worse too. I just haven't seen 1146 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 1: enough from Josh Rosan to say, oh, yeah, he's definitely 1147 00:58:57,760 --> 00:58:59,959 Speaker 1: gonna be a starter some day. I don't. I don't. 1148 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,480 Speaker 1: I'm not there yet with him. No, I agree with that. 1149 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 1: I mean, how can you see anything with him? I 1150 00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 1: I agree, it's he's so possible. He's titanically screwed. And 1151 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: we've talked about this so we don't have to delve 1152 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: into it. But he was in an all time crap 1153 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 1: offense last year in Arizona. He gets quit on and 1154 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: sent to Miami, who might be the worst team of 1155 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 1: all time, a team that is actively tanking so they 1156 00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: could pick the guy who would play over Josh Rosen. 1157 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 1: So he has no future in his current location, but 1158 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 1: he's under contract. I don't know what is the best 1159 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:34,600 Speaker 1: case scenario for Josh Rosen. That's somehow he gets out 1160 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: of Miami and maybe lands with a team. I don't 1161 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 1: know that in a case Keenom type situation, He's certainly 1162 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,640 Speaker 1: not gonna be handed a starting job based on these 1163 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: two years. It's his luck. Maybe re emerges as a 1164 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 1: starter a couple of years time, get through the season 1165 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 1: healthy and don't have that tap. I mean, if if 1166 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 1: they drop some of his deeper throws, numbers would look better. 1167 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,920 Speaker 1: He's made some great throws and he makes them crazy decision. 1168 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 1: He seems like a little bit right now, too wild 1169 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 1: of a ride to trust as a starting quarterback. But 1170 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 1: he's playing better than Ryan Fitzpatrick played for them. I mean, 1171 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:12,720 Speaker 1: it's unprecedented. He's He's a number ten overall pick who 1172 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 1: has never been given the chance to develop, and maybe 1173 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 1: he never will. He's twenty two, so I think he's 1174 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,880 Speaker 1: going to be in the NFL a long time. And 1175 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:21,959 Speaker 1: I think what Mark said is right that he's gonna 1176 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 1: have to fall or get into a better situation, and 1177 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 1: who knows that might be in three years. I don't 1178 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 1: just do we put anything and I we don't. I 1179 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: don't know that the one thing that annoyed me more 1180 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,959 Speaker 1: than everything else is everyone killing Josh Rosen the person 1181 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: when they didn't know him, and so I don't want 1182 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: to do that at all. But when I see a 1183 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 1: team totally go one eighty on them after one season 1184 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 1: in one organization and the second organization he's with, despite 1185 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 1: not really having a fair read on him, is heats 1186 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 1: seeking another quarterback. It's suddenly you're on your third team 1187 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 1: and I don't I don't know what the personal experience 1188 01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 1: of the quarterback behind the scenes is. If you remember 1189 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: Charlie Casserley NFL Networks, Owe made a lot of headlines 1190 01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 1: over the offseason where he cited a source that said 1191 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: that you know he had Rosen had so much work 1192 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 1: to do to be a pro and get to the 1193 01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 1: facility earlier. Be that and talking to Charlie when it 1194 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:14,439 Speaker 1: was on our show a couple of weeks ago. Before 1195 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 1: the show, we actually didn't talk about it. But apparently 1196 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: those same that same type of heat is still connected 1197 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: to him based on the people Charlie Casserle is talking to, 1198 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 1: So that could be it. Maybe maybe part of the 1199 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,280 Speaker 1: issue is that he's never gonna be that real grinder 1200 01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. But my point being, he's just not 1201 01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 1: getting a like at this point. You know, there's been 1202 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 1: a lot of NFL greats that were not not not 1203 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 1: saying he's going to be an NFL great But I 1204 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 1: guess I'm just leaving room for him to be a 1205 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 1: different person and player when he gets older. At this point, 1206 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 1: like Brett Farve was almost drinking himself out of the league. 1207 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 1: It's totally different that you can see him wind up 1208 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 1: on the Patriots. I know, we don't like to throw 1209 01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 1: everyone in New England in a totally just or just 1210 01:01:56,480 --> 01:02:00,320 Speaker 1: somewhere filling the blank, totally stable situation, and he urged 1211 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,360 Speaker 1: two or three years from now. Is someone that starts 1212 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: four teen games and looks totally different. He's undergoing like 1213 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:08,200 Speaker 1: what David Carr went with the Texans when they were 1214 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 1: an expansion team, and then the next year also undergo 1215 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 1: what Tim Couch went through while he was with the 1216 01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: Browns and an expansion team. You just don't see quarterbacks 1217 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:17,960 Speaker 1: have to do this earlier in their career. All right, um, 1218 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: good chat, Let's move on to Thursday Night Football Week 1219 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: Fource spinning forward a great game. I don't know, this 1220 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 1: might be a west manor game. I don't know. Let's 1221 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:32,520 Speaker 1: talk about it. The Philadelphia Eagles and a tough inviters 1222 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: out there. You're all welcome to join, including Erica of course, 1223 01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 1: that we might need that you might need a little 1224 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 1: kumbay ya. Thank you guys, backyard gathering. I think I'm 1225 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 1: flying back to Boston. My grandma's not doing too well. 1226 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: Say hello, um, but thank you for including me. Appreciate 1227 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: it well. Best wishes to grandma. Um. The Eagles are 1228 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 1: one and two and just rotten luck. You're one in two. 1229 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 1: You're banged up as all get out. Bringing that back 1230 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 1: to uh and what do you got? You got a 1231 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 1: short week now, and oh you have to go on 1232 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,080 Speaker 1: the road and you're against the Green Bay Packers who 1233 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:13,080 Speaker 1: are three and oh and seem to be figuring it 1234 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: out on offense. And we know uh gulta cons is 1235 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 1: locked in on defense with m J shoulder shrug. Uh So, 1236 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,440 Speaker 1: a very tough game here, Greg for the Eagles who 1237 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 1: are trying to get healthy but now have to face 1238 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,960 Speaker 1: a juggernaut outside their building in prime time on a 1239 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 1: short week. Yikes. Got some good news that Alson Jeffrey 1240 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 1: appears to be all systems go to at least try 1241 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 1: to play this game. He was he was at practice 1242 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,479 Speaker 1: on Tuesday, so that that's big. We'll see if Dallas 1243 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 1: Goddard's back. They are gonna be without Ronald Darby, who 1244 01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 1: was struggling, but sounds like he's gonna be out a 1245 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 1: little while with his injury. So there's they're still very 1246 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:51,600 Speaker 1: banged up. I think it's a winnable game, though, because 1247 01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that the Packers offense has turned it 1248 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 1: around at all. I haven't seen it. There's no rhythm 1249 01:03:57,440 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 1: that it's interesting that they've probably had a worse three 1250 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 1: games stretch offensively, if if you if we had research 1251 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,400 Speaker 1: do this, and I thought about it, but just felt mean, 1252 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:07,439 Speaker 1: you know, they got a lot to do, then any 1253 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 1: three game stretch of the Mike McCarthy era that Aaron 1254 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 1: Rodgers started, the same Mike McCarthy people's three years as 1255 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 1: being so behind the curve that they were holding back 1256 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 1: Aaron rod The football is a team game and they 1257 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 1: are winning and I think that matters. And who knows, 1258 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 1: if they were behind in these games, everything could be different. 1259 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: But right now most of their plays are off Aaron 1260 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 1: Rodgers making a just kind of like a great throw, 1261 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 1: or they went tempo a little bit in last game, 1262 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 1: or he's improvising and there's there's you know, they're they're 1263 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 1: twenty nine yards and six points per drive right now. 1264 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:43,400 Speaker 1: I would just say it's the best thing you could 1265 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 1: have imagined that if your offense was gonna need half 1266 01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 1: a year to get up to speed. That we're seeing 1267 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 1: a Green Bay Packers defense that we've never been together 1268 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 1: and watched them play this way, where Mike Petton and 1269 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore are going week to week in the battle 1270 01:04:57,160 --> 01:05:00,200 Speaker 1: for assistant Coach of the Year. I mean, Mike in 1271 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 1: his real just gotten the lame by Daniel Jones. It's 1272 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 1: kind of like, can we save the m v P 1273 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 1: articles for a little later. This is the real race. 1274 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: But they and I guess if you're Aaron Rodgers, he 1275 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 1: glowed about the way the offensive line kept him safe 1276 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 1: last week against the Broncos team where you could have 1277 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:24,880 Speaker 1: thought you're gonna get whacked five or six times those sacks. 1278 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 1: And the Broncos have their own issues on defense, but 1279 01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,440 Speaker 1: the Eagles did in sack car or Matthew Stafford last week. 1280 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 1: Either are they're banged up on defense? One of my 1281 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: new Monday routines after I read Greg's debrief article. Mike 1282 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: Sando of The Athletic has a nice weekly article when 1283 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 1: he pointed out this week the Packers have already held 1284 01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 1: more opponents under seventeen points in the first three games 1285 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 1: than they did all of last year and all of 1286 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:52,960 Speaker 1: the year before. UM teams win eighty seven per cent 1287 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:55,400 Speaker 1: at the time over the past decade when their opponents 1288 01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 1: failed to reach seventeen points. If you can do that, 1289 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna win. And so far the Packer are that 1290 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 1: defense run defense, Uh, for the Packers hasn't been great. 1291 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:07,960 Speaker 1: It hasn't been exposed too much because I mean it 1292 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 1: hasn't hurt them that much. They've given up big numbers. 1293 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:13,760 Speaker 1: So maybe maybe Eagles can try to get something going. 1294 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 1: They haven't looked too great on the ground. Miles Sanders 1295 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 1: made some big plays last week, but also made uh, 1296 01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, some big mistakes. But this is a situation 1297 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: the Packers defense where I think the dbs are making 1298 01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 1: the pass rush look better. They're covering so well that 1299 01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 1: they're letting that wild man that Areas Smith is winning 1300 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:30,760 Speaker 1: wild Man of the Year. Well that's that's an award. 1301 01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 1: But give it to him. He's wild, he's crazy. He 1302 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:36,240 Speaker 1: he was named the captain, and you know, within weeks 1303 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,280 Speaker 1: of joining that team, and you could just him and 1304 01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:40,680 Speaker 1: Savage are tone setters. You bring those two guys in 1305 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 1: and it's just like the whole defense are a bunch 1306 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:44,040 Speaker 1: of dogs. The only thing that's about the Eagles is 1307 01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,480 Speaker 1: it's I get it there one and two and they 1308 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,680 Speaker 1: people are their their hairs on fire over what's gonna 1309 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:53,640 Speaker 1: happen to the team. But it's like they are one 1310 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: catch away Hail Mary last week on the two or 1311 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 1: three yard line and say that J j R. Segal 1312 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 1: white Side Artego Whiteside flips around and rolls into the 1313 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 1: end zone. They are the magical team from last week, 1314 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 1: and they in the week before Zach Er it's a 1315 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 1: yard shy of converting and then potentially winning that game too. 1316 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:13,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it's don't forget what that Nelson Aglar drop. 1317 01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:16,520 Speaker 1: They had a lot of weird stuff happening, like the 1318 01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:18,800 Speaker 1: Eagles fans for booing them at home last week. I 1319 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,280 Speaker 1: get it, it's been a rough start, but I don't 1320 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: worry about a one in two Eagles team. I don't, 1321 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:26,000 Speaker 1: not yet. Artego Whiteside though, is kind of I mean 1322 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:28,200 Speaker 1: their receivers have hurt them. He's played a hundred and 1323 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 1: thirty two snaps. He has seven targets to catches fourteen yards. 1324 01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,160 Speaker 1: That is a sinkhole. Well, they had five drops last week. 1325 01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 1: No teams had more than five in the game. I 1326 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 1: mean Wentz was not helped alright, power Rank, it's a 1327 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 1: tough game to pick. Power rank.
