Speaker 1: You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Hour two.
Speaker 2: On this Thursday, Dan and the Dan Ete Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2: We're taking off tomorrow on Valentine's Day because I love
Speaker 2: love and why not spend it with my wife. So
Speaker 2: we have a meat Thursday smoked Ribbi's salt crusted loaded
Speaker 2: baked potatoes. Who has it better than we?
Speaker 3: No body?
Speaker 2: Todd, you did have a poll question that had to
Speaker 2: do with Valentine's Day? Would you do like to give
Speaker 2: that to the audience?
Speaker 4: I would love to.
Speaker 5: All right, what is your significant other's expectations for Valentine's Day?
Speaker 5: The choices are a nice dinner out, cooking a meal
Speaker 5: for him or her, chocolates, flowers, an emotional card, something
Speaker 5: in that ilk, jewelry or other pricey gift, mind blowing
Speaker 5: relations in the bedroom, or nothing.
Speaker 3: Really, it's just a creative day on the calendar. You're
Speaker 3: not suddenly more in love with each other.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna let you go first, Tod, what I hope for?
Speaker 3: What will happen?
Speaker 2: What will happen?
Speaker 3: What will happen to be? Nothing?
Speaker 5: Really, I would like the mind blowing relation to something
Speaker 5: I'd probably select.
Speaker 6: Yeahs you fritzy, you don't take your wife out of
Speaker 6: dinner for Valentine's dey.
Speaker 3: We got for dinner. But I'm talking about like anything.
Speaker 5: I didn't pick that one because just in general, she
Speaker 5: just doesn't want the cards and flowers.
Speaker 3: She has all the jewelry she needs. She's made it
Speaker 3: very clear.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I've never met a woman has all the
Speaker 2: jewelry she needs and just say and when they say
Speaker 2: they don't want anything, they do. Just telling you I
Speaker 2: shouldn't just say okay, then put up a little bit
Speaker 2: of a fight there.
Speaker 3: Really, come on, can I get you ab or C.
Speaker 7: Let's do that.
Speaker 3: I can just say, all right, I'm gonna go watch Duvis.
Speaker 1: You know what.
Speaker 2: I would suggest you at home cooking a meal when
Speaker 2: she gets home.
Speaker 5: But then the fire department has to show up. And
Speaker 5: that doesn't put any kind of romances in it.
Speaker 2: Just I'm just it's the effort. The effort is big.
Speaker 2: If you want to if you need some help, I'm
Speaker 2: going to give you a suggestion. Maybe you'd put on
Speaker 2: an apron.
Speaker 3: Melt some water, throw some box of pasta in there
Speaker 3: and see what happens.
Speaker 2: Apron nothing else on. Noh, you start start to cook
Speaker 2: a meal.
Speaker 3: My Bronco socks on and my slippers.
Speaker 2: Now, I don't know if I'd do that, but just
Speaker 2: just a suggestion. Maybe you cook a meal for your what.
Speaker 5: I put on my old Brian greasy shirt, which is
Speaker 5: not a half shirt because it's so old.
Speaker 2: We say good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, thank
Speaker 2: you for downloading the app, and our radio affiliates around
Speaker 2: the country, good morning, thank you for allowing us into
Speaker 2: your life. Stat of the Day brought to you by
Speaker 2: Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2: Bridget Jones is back for a final chapter in Bridget
Speaker 2: Jones Mad About the Boy. I don't think this is
Speaker 2: the final chapter. If I know rene Zel Wigger, I'm
Speaker 2: going to say she's probably going to have another one
Speaker 2: of these Bridget Jones. They've been doing this for twenty years.
Speaker 2: Bridget Jones, by the way, the original new original streaming
Speaker 2: now only on Peacock. I started a movie, you know,
Speaker 2: I don't go start to finish with a movie when
Speaker 2: I'm streaming something almost famous with Amy Schumer just came out,
Speaker 2: very funny, some funny things in there. So far. I
Speaker 2: think I'm about forty minutes in and I'll probably watch
Speaker 2: the rest of it maybe tomorrow on Valentine's Day with
Speaker 2: my wife eight seven seventh three DP show email address
Speaker 2: dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle at TP show. Are
Speaker 2: we all kind of of the same mindset that it's
Speaker 2: just something on the calendar, even though we do have
Speaker 2: to do something on Valentine's Day? Marvin, you love love,
Speaker 2: You just don't know why you've stayed married this long.
Speaker 2: Didn't you have a hard time coming up with a
Speaker 2: reason why? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I think Seaton and Fritzie took my answers and that
Speaker 4: is oh I forgot.
Speaker 2: Oh well, I don't know if Setan's answer is what
Speaker 2: Fritzy's answer.
Speaker 4: Is, and I don't have anything else.
Speaker 2: Uh, Setan? What about you?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know. Did I give an answer?
Speaker 9: I don't think you'd or is that an answer? Not
Speaker 9: giving any Okay, all right?
Speaker 6: I would say that Valentine's Day is pretty low on
Speaker 6: the depth chart of effort. You do a little something
Speaker 6: here and there. The anniversary is the one that's where
Speaker 6: you can catch some heat if you whiff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because there's not a special anniversary day on the calendar.
Speaker 2: It's your anniversary, but everybody universal anniversary, yes time, and
Speaker 2: then it's not only.
Speaker 5: Is it contrived. Then the restaurants with the price fixed menus,
Speaker 5: they get cute on New Year's or Valentine's Day and
Speaker 5: they just I don't like that whole it's a special
Speaker 5: menu and there's nothing usually special about that menu.
Speaker 2: So this is your way of protesting a little bit,
Speaker 2: like you have a building. Excuses why you're not going
Speaker 2: to do it.
Speaker 5: The Christmas tree comes out, I don't need to see
Speaker 5: valentine stuff all over the supermarkets and stores and everything's
Speaker 5: red and pink and hearts, and I'm a romantic type guy.
Speaker 5: But they hit us with that because they want to
Speaker 5: charge your eleven fifty for a card, which is just insane.
Speaker 3: Have price of cards by the way, don't even get
Speaker 3: me started.
Speaker 6: Nothing sex there that being fiscally conscious for your wife.
Speaker 3: Here's a card for like twelve thirty eight.
Speaker 2: We used to have two guys who worked in the back.
Speaker 2: They were great cameraman, Nick and Casey, and they went
Speaker 2: out to dinner on Valentine's Day one year and they sat,
Speaker 2: you know, it was a table for two. They didn't
Speaker 2: know it was Valentine's day. So they go into this
Speaker 2: restaurant and everybody's congratulating them on Valentine's Day and they
Speaker 2: you know, you're a very special day with you too,
Speaker 2: and they're like they look around and you know, there's
Speaker 2: roses on all of the tables, and they go. Then
Speaker 2: we realized that people are looking at us like we're
Speaker 2: a couple, although we did look at them like they
Speaker 2: were a couple as much time as they spent together.
Speaker 4: Yes, Marvin, the only advice I have for tonight is
Speaker 4: don't get engaged. Do not get engaged tonight. Yeah, make
Speaker 4: you just a day that means nothing. Yes, yes, like
Speaker 4: a random Saturday, nobody's birthday, no Christmas, no Arbor Day,
Speaker 4: no nothing.
Speaker 2: No, you're right to Tuesday in March.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, that's you.
Speaker 5: Yes, I got engaged on Christmas Eve, though, which I
Speaker 5: can get away with being Jewish, I guess.
Speaker 3: But I did propose on Christmas Eve.
Speaker 5: You know, you're supposed, like certain holidays, that should just
Speaker 5: kind of stay on its own. You're you're supposed to
Speaker 5: share it with other parts of your you know, what's
Speaker 5: going on in your life.
Speaker 2: Whatever you felt the need in that moment, ton that's
Speaker 2: all the time.
Speaker 4: For me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all that matters, because by the time she
Speaker 2: was going to sober up, you know, then she was
Speaker 2: probably not going to get engaged too.
Speaker 3: Yes, you have forgive me an answer right now. What
Speaker 3: do you mean you'll get back to me.
Speaker 5: What's that supposed to be routing the whole Moody I'm
Speaker 5: on one knee is embarrassing.
Speaker 2: Kurt in Oregon? Hi Kurt, what's on your mind today? Hey?
Speaker 10: DP, I apologize for taking the show a left turn.
Speaker 10: But my dad's dad, my grandfather passed away late last
Speaker 10: night and I just wanted to welcome my dad. I
Speaker 10: know he'd appreciate it. He loves the show. Welcome my
Speaker 10: dad to the DDC Club.
Speaker 2: Oh wow?
Speaker 10: And and uh yeah, my my grandfather lived in Alaska.
Speaker 10: My dad actually tried to get a Juno T shirt
Speaker 10: but it sold out before sold out before he was
Speaker 10: able to get one.
Speaker 2: So, and your dad's name is what kurtin Rusty? So
Speaker 2: Rusty has joined the Dead Dad's Club.
Speaker 10: That's right, Yep, my grandpa Sandy passed away and uh
Speaker 10: he's a great man but lived along and thruughfull life.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, congratulations and welcome to the dead Dad's Club.
Speaker 2: Thanks for the phone call. Tie in Rochester, Hi, Ty,
Speaker 2: what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7: Good morning Dan and Dan Eds first time, long time,
Speaker 7: five seven one. I just want I think Travis should
Speaker 7: come back. Kansas City should draft a good tight end
Speaker 7: and let dead tight end sit behind Travis until he
Speaker 7: decides what he wants to do.
Speaker 2: Well, it's not a bad idea, but you got to
Speaker 2: convince Travis Kelcey to come back and to tutor somebody
Speaker 2: to eventually take his job. I don't know if I've
Speaker 2: seen more athletes jump a year early than a year
Speaker 2: late because of broadcasting opportunities. You go back to Tiki Barber,
Speaker 2: he left the Giants a year too early. They won
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl and he was going to the Today Show.
Speaker 2: Jason Kelsey could have been part of this Eagles team,
Speaker 2: had another super Bowl there. Now he's going to be
Speaker 2: a Hall of Famer. But you know, Michael Strahan did
Speaker 2: this could have played another year you're seeing. That's why
Speaker 2: I was wondering about Aaron Rodgers. I don't know if
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers sees himself as a network broadcaster. Now he
Speaker 2: might be a podcaster. I'm guessing, but I don't know.
Speaker 2: If it'd be like, I'm going to tune into the
Speaker 2: Fox pregame show and Aaron Rodgers is going to be there.
Speaker 2: Because if that was the case, then maybe you're like,
Speaker 2: you know what, let me go do this, let me
Speaker 2: be in TV. A lot of these guys look at
Speaker 2: it and go, I can make good money and I
Speaker 2: don't have to you know, I've completed my career. And
Speaker 2: maybe Tiki Barber thought I've done everything I needed to do.
Speaker 2: If he played that last year and put up the
Speaker 2: numbers he had been putting up and they won the
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, I think he's going to be He would
Speaker 2: have been in the Hall of Fame, and even his
Speaker 2: numbers are arguably Hall of Fame worthy, But I don't
Speaker 2: know how important that is. Strayahan knew that he was
Speaker 2: going to be a Hall of Famer. Kelsey knows he's
Speaker 2: going to be a Hall of Famer. Gronk knows he's
Speaker 2: going to be a Hall of Famer. You take these
Speaker 2: media opportunities, and I've said this before to athletes, if
Speaker 2: you can get a job, hold onto the job, because
Speaker 2: you can do that fifteen twenty years. It's like when
Speaker 2: John Gruden wanted to come back in Well, they gave
Speaker 2: him an offer he couldn't refuse. It was one hundred
Speaker 2: million dollar deal. But that's a job Monday night football
Speaker 2: that he could have stayed in for another decade if
Speaker 2: he wanted to. But you're finding players. You get that opportunity.
Speaker 2: Take the opportunity if you're ready for it. And it
Speaker 2: feels like these guys. You know, you're finding more players,
Speaker 2: more coaches are media savvy sooner than they used to be. Uh,
Speaker 2: Matt in Tampa, Hi, Matt, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11: All right, Marty DP six, I got a twelve man
Speaker 11: roster for the world that would beat the Dream Team
Speaker 11: this year, no doubt, high to the face. But of
Speaker 11: course you can't figure that out. All right, want to
Speaker 11: go here real quick? I'll go fast, okay, Luca Joker, Sga,
Speaker 11: Jannis Wemby. There's you're starting five. It's pretty much game
Speaker 11: over right there. Rudy Gobert France, Lori marketed from Wherever, Sabonis,
Speaker 11: the Soccramento Kings Guy for Wherever, Pascal Siakam, Franz Wagner,
Speaker 11: Jamal Murray, this Canadian and the extra one that no
Speaker 11: one ever talks about play the Dominican Republic this summer.
Speaker 11: Carl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 2: All right, I like that. Thanks for the research there.
Speaker 2: Matt Sibonis, though, was born in the United States, correct, Marvin, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think he was born in Portland, Cartland. Yeah, because
Speaker 2: his dad was with the Blazers. But yeah, so we
Speaker 2: don't get him. But do we get Karl Anthony Towns?
Speaker 2: I mean if he played for somebody other than the
Speaker 2: United States, Yeah, I mean we'll give the US EMBIID.
Speaker 2: We'll say Carl Anthony Towns, Yes.
Speaker 6: Paul, I'm checking his lineage. Carl Anthony town was born
Speaker 6: in Edison.
Speaker 2: New Jersey. Uh, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 4: But he played for the Dominican Republic national team, and
Speaker 4: so that's the Dominican Republic that's not in America.
Speaker 12: What do we get in return for that trade?
Speaker 4: Joel embiid? Oh embiid for Towns? Like deep he just said, yep, yeah,
Speaker 4: shout out.
Speaker 8: That's in New Jersey. Let's go.
Speaker 4: You know what, how come Seaton Hall of Rutgers aren't
Speaker 4: better programs?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 9: All of a sudden, you gotta start lashing out and
Speaker 9: punching down.
Speaker 8: Okay, you're better than that, Marvin, all right.
Speaker 4: Wait, Wait, but I'm not.
Speaker 7: Ring.
Speaker 4: He's so petty seating. No, Dan, hurry, no seating. It
Speaker 4: hurts with Seaton Hall.
Speaker 2: What the heck?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sorry, sores.
Speaker 2: He was having a good day, at least the start
Speaker 2: of a good day. And too you went after him, Marvin.
Speaker 4: Why because Kyrie Irving and j R. Smith and Tristan
Speaker 4: Thompson from New Jersey. Yeah, kar Anthony.
Speaker 2: Towns Saint John's took Seaton Hall's best player.
Speaker 4: Yeah that's not nice.
Speaker 2: No, it's not whatever.
Speaker 8: All Yukon's players are born and raised in That's county.
Speaker 4: That's a crazy part. One of them from Connecticut?
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, how come none of them stay in this
Speaker 8: fine state?
Speaker 4: Not enough great players out here?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true. Well Bridgeport used to have a lot
Speaker 2: of good players long time and long time ago.
Speaker 6: Yes, Paul, I have the Yukon roster and there's not
Speaker 6: one person that was born and grew.
Speaker 2: Up in Connecticut. Okay, should that be a rule like.
Speaker 6: The Premier League has something that they have to have
Speaker 6: a British person on their roster.
Speaker 9: Or like in Canada and the radio, like a certain
Speaker 9: percentage of the songs that they play in the radio
Speaker 9: in Canada have to be Canadian artists.
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't know that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, huh.
Speaker 2: So a lot of Brian Adams and Yeah, Drake and.
Speaker 9: Rush, Shanaiah Twain, she get Avril, Yeah, yeah, I think
Speaker 9: she's Canadian.
Speaker 8: Maybe I just made that up. Nickelback get a lot
Speaker 8: of run in those parts.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, some forty one they're Canadian, I hope so
Speaker 4: supremely Canadian?
Speaker 2: Oh they are? Oh yeah, okay.
Speaker 4: Did you hear how they sing?
Speaker 2: No, I don't want to waste it's Canadian. That doesn't
Speaker 2: sound Canadian.
Speaker 4: That was just an excuse to sing that.
Speaker 5: Yes, if they become the fifty first state, though, that
Speaker 5: all gets thrown out the window.
Speaker 6: They do, we can acquire Rush, oh h lover Boy Canadian,
Speaker 6: turn Me Loose, Triumph, Dan mun Hair, Naked lady seating.
Speaker 2: Yes, how can I forget?
Speaker 6: Bear naked ladies, Arcade Fire, Arcade Fire Canadian?
Speaker 2: Yeah, very bare naked ladies. On tour with HOODI and
Speaker 2: the Blowfish. They were really good guys. Extremely they were
Speaker 2: really really nice guys. They had no idea who I was,
Speaker 2: but they were extremely nice to me. Never like, what
Speaker 2: is it you do? Because the band always wants to
Speaker 2: talk to you, and I said, well, I'm a sportscaster.
Speaker 2: Have we seen you? I know, I don't know. I'm
Speaker 2: assuming you've probably see me somewhere. All right, let me

Speaker 2: looking coach in the NFL. He's not Canadian, by the way,
Speaker 2: but Kevin O'Connell from the Vikings. He will join us
Speaker 2: coming up. I wonder if I think Matt Lafleur was
Speaker 2: voted number one on this list. I don't know where
Speaker 2: you voted on this. I just saw that there was
Speaker 2: some poll that was out there.
Speaker 3: Yes, time division rivals all over the place. Looks and.
Speaker 2: Can a good looking person give somebody a dirty look?
Speaker 2: If you're a good looking person, ton, I think you can.

Speaker 2: of the year the last time you were on you.
Speaker 14: Called it, Dan, You you absolutely called your shot and.
Speaker 2: I didn't get a shout out. I didn't get a
Speaker 2: shout out that night when you were accepting your award.
Speaker 14: Let me, I'm gonna throw you on the the list
Speaker 14: of folks that I've heard that from, and whether it's
Speaker 14: Sean McVay.
Speaker 12: Dan Patrick, you would you would not believe that.
Speaker 14: But you, I'm sure you would know with all the
Speaker 14: hardware that you've earned over the over illustrious career, about
Speaker 14: those threats you get to the folks from Hey, you
Speaker 14: you know when you hear the music, just know you
Speaker 14: better get off the stage because the arm guards are
Speaker 14: coming after that and they're gonna escort you right off,
Speaker 14: so you better keep it tight.
Speaker 2: Where's your award?
Speaker 12: I actually don't have it yet. They take it back
Speaker 12: from you. It's the award you cherish, You're so excited
Speaker 12: to have it, and then somebody takes it back and says,
Speaker 12: we'll send it to you. I didn't know if that
Speaker 12: was you know, them saying there could be a recount,
Speaker 12: but no, I'm hoping to get it soon.
Speaker 2: Where did you watch the Super Bowl?
Speaker 14: I actually made it, made it back home to Minneapolis.
Speaker 12: I always like watching it with my with my kids.
Speaker 14: My two boys love watching football, So I made it
Speaker 14: back and watch the game at home.
Speaker 2: Are you watching as a dad or a coach?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 12: The second half ball gets kicked off.
Speaker 14: I was watching as a coach, just knowing, you know,
Speaker 14: obviously Andy Reid his staff's bags like, I.
Speaker 12: Got so much respect for them.
Speaker 14: I was fascinated to see kind of how Vic Fangio
Speaker 14: would decide to play against that offense and Patrick and
Speaker 14: just the unique little thing is that take place in
Speaker 14: a game. You know, the funny thing is that that
Speaker 14: game gets two weeks of coverage, and having coached in
Speaker 14: it in twenty twenty one, you look back on it
Speaker 14: and it's always these small, impactful plays normally that have
Speaker 14: such magnified impacts on the game, and it's all it's
Speaker 14: all it's all rhythm of the game, it's all momentum.
Speaker 14: But when you know, you get a performance out of
Speaker 14: a front like like what Philly's front was able to do,
Speaker 14: that can be such an equalizer, and we've seen that
Speaker 14: over you know.
Speaker 12: I even think back to when I was going through
Speaker 12: the draft process.
Speaker 14: I was in Arizona and watched that Giants versus Patriots
Speaker 14: kind of perfect team. I inevitably was drafted by that
Speaker 14: Patriots team after that. But just what a defensive front
Speaker 14: can do to equalize a game, and the greatness in
Speaker 14: many ways of an offense can be neutralized like Philly
Speaker 14: was able to do.
Speaker 12: It was remarkable.
Speaker 2: But defensive philosophy going in to Patrick Mahomes is we're
Speaker 2: not going to blitz. I mean, that's pretty amazing. I
Speaker 2: would think that you're comfortable with your four and then
Speaker 2: I mean, if you do the math, that's a great
Speaker 2: advantage for the Eagles defense and their secondary if four
Speaker 2: can get there. And uh, and it certainly looked like
Speaker 2: Mahomes he doesn't get uncomfortable very often, but he was
Speaker 2: uncomfortable in the pocket.
Speaker 14: Yeah. And I think Dan, like historically you've seen a
Speaker 14: lot of teams with strong fronts, like that's the game plan, right,
Speaker 14: try to maximize your coverage. You've got Travis Kelce, You've
Speaker 14: got some you know, speed and and and d Hop
Speaker 14: and different skill players and you're really kind of daring
Speaker 14: them to be able to, you know, overcome your four
Speaker 14: man pass rush, and then are they you know, they
Speaker 14: always do a really good job running the football both
Speaker 14: under center out of a gun, but you've historically seen
Speaker 14: that and the problem is when that game plan doesn't
Speaker 14: have have success than Andy Reid and Patrick Maholmes. They
Speaker 14: know what's coming, so now the pressure will start showing
Speaker 14: up the five six man blitzes, and that's when they
Speaker 14: have made a lot of plays to create the dynasty
Speaker 14: that they are at that point. So it's an aggressive
Speaker 14: strategy in a lot of ways because you're setting yourself up.
Speaker 14: If they're able to move the football against that four
Speaker 14: man Russian seven man coverage, you're gonna have to kind
Speaker 14: of show your cards from there. And those are some
Speaker 14: pretty world class people to do that against. So when
Speaker 14: it does work and it is effective, now it's about
Speaker 14: can you sustain it long enough and also play have
Speaker 14: the right kind of offense on the other side, which
Speaker 14: they certainly do with Saquon and Jalen Hurts and those
Speaker 14: receivers all behind that offensive line.
Speaker 12: It was impressive night for the Eagles, for sure.
Speaker 2: The NFL coach of the Year, Kevin O'Connell of the Vikings.
Speaker 2: Can you play this what if can you play this hypothetical?
Speaker 2: If JJ McCarthy doesn't get injured, who is your starting
Speaker 2: quarterback this past season?
Speaker 12: Well, I would say this, Dan.
Speaker 14: We we had just seen JJ, you know, play in
Speaker 14: his first preseason game.
Speaker 12: There was a lot of positive.
Speaker 14: Things on that tape that you know, left us as
Speaker 14: a coaching staff saying, you know, we we absolutely need
Speaker 14: to see this thing through to the end of training camp.
Speaker 14: But at the same time, everybody, and rightly so, everybody
Speaker 14: was talking about JJ as the first round pick and
Speaker 14: exciting young player. We're fired up to have an organization.
Speaker 14: Sam Darnold was having a really good camp and it
Speaker 14: was showing up day in and day out. You know,
Speaker 14: It's it's one thing to you know, go to training
Speaker 14: camp practice every day, but when those guys are competing
Speaker 14: against Brian Flores and that defense, it's not exactly you know,
Speaker 14: standard defense that you're gonna be able to say. You know,
Speaker 14: your quarterbacks really haven't been in stressful environments yet, so
Speaker 14: we need to get to the games our quarterbacks. You know,
Speaker 14: over since flow has gotten here, they can't wait for
Speaker 14: those preseason games to come because.
Speaker 12: What they're going up against every every single day in practice.
Speaker 14: So I love the fact that flow pushes us all
Speaker 14: to be better and our quarterbacks get to be in
Speaker 14: a massively stressful environment every day, which only helps competitions
Speaker 14: and helps you figure out what you have. But I
Speaker 14: would I would argue that I think both guys would
Speaker 14: have continued on through and I would I would probably say,
Speaker 14: you know, Sam Darnold would have been our starting quarterback
Speaker 14: just out of the experience and knowing that I am
Speaker 14: very much constantly aware of the minutes a minute, hour
Speaker 14: to hour, day to day development of quarterbacks. It's very
Speaker 14: important to me that I take the personal ownership and
Speaker 14: accountability to what that position ultimately feels for me from
Speaker 14: a support structure, but also coaching Josh McCown in the
Speaker 14: quarterback room, Wes Phillips Hays our offensive coordinator.
Speaker 12: We've got a pretty good setup.
Speaker 14: Around these guys that we feel like if we just
Speaker 14: invest in the daily, we're going to get positive results
Speaker 14: and these guys are going to be kind of building
Speaker 14: themselves up to the opportunity to go have success playing
Speaker 14: in NFL games.
Speaker 2: When do you make your decision of the team makes
Speaker 2: its decision on Sam Darnel.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's you know, it's an ongoing process right now. Dan.
Speaker 14: We we're very proud of what Sam was able to accomplish.
Speaker 12: I mean, it's hard to win.
Speaker 2: Are you planning on him being there next season?
Speaker 12: Yeah, that's if you to let me finish. I'm sorry,
Speaker 12: I just know, just kidding.
Speaker 14: But the idea is this, We're you know, we're we're evaluating,
Speaker 14: you know, how we're going to move forward and put
Speaker 14: the best possible team together in twenty twenty five and beyond.
Speaker 12: We know, we're excited about JJ McCarthy.
Speaker 14: He confirmed a lot of the things in a very
Speaker 14: short amount of time that we had hoped to see
Speaker 14: from him before unfortunately getting hurt. And then Sam, you know,
Speaker 14: took advantage of his out opportunity and has really put
Speaker 14: himself as probably the premier player at the position going
Speaker 14: into free agency, and Sam's going to have some opportunities.
Speaker 12: We're working through.
Speaker 14: What that looks like for us, while also having some
Speaker 14: other real impactful players set to be free agents as well,
Speaker 14: so I.
Speaker 12: Think a lot goes into it. We haven't made that
Speaker 12: decision yet.
Speaker 14: I talked to really all three, you know both JJ's
Speaker 14: here every day. But I talked to Sam yesterday for
Speaker 14: a long time, talked to Daniel Jones for a long time.
Speaker 14: I just want those guys to know that there's an
Speaker 14: element in this where our relationship matters. The communication between
Speaker 14: me and those guys has to be paramount, and the
Speaker 14: agents in our front office. Those conversations will go on,
Speaker 14: but what we try to build here is something that
Speaker 14: I hope is always beyond that, above that, especially me
Speaker 14: personally with the players.
Speaker 2: If we did a combine for the head coaches in
Speaker 2: the NFC North, who would grade out better?
Speaker 12: Are we talking all events here?
Speaker 2: Yeah? One morning bench press cone drill? You three cone drill?
Speaker 12: Well, I think we all know who's winning the bench press.
Speaker 2: Okay, so we take that off the table with Dan Campbell.
Speaker 14: Yeah, and and uh, you know I would I would
Speaker 14: probably argue Dan that, uh you know, I would be
Speaker 14: pretty competitive in uh, you know, the straight line stuff
Speaker 14: running wise, you know, I think I would put my
Speaker 14: I would put Matt Lafleur in that McVeigh category. These
Speaker 14: guys are more of those change of direction, short area quickness,
Speaker 14: those types of things.
Speaker 12: So maybe maybe he gets gets me there.
Speaker 2: But I don't know about Ben Johnson. Is he sneaky athletic?
Speaker 2: I don't know much about.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 14: One of the things I'm always doing dan pregame is
Speaker 14: I'm always watching who's throwing throwing the pill around the field,
Speaker 14: because that's probably the biggest mistake I ever made was
Speaker 14: hiring Josh mc gown because he can he can still
Speaker 14: throw it and probably could go play in a game
Speaker 14: right now. So I didn't really think that all through
Speaker 14: when you know, I started throwing some wabblers around a pregame.
Speaker 12: But I'm smart.
Speaker 14: Indoors Stadium a US Bank stadium, elite place to throw
Speaker 14: the football. We played in London and it was kind
Speaker 14: of spitting rain a little bit. I didn't touch a
Speaker 14: football for that entire warm up.
Speaker 2: Very smart, you know.
Speaker 14: Some other it was windy and windy, kind of spitting
Speaker 14: rain in Jacksonville. There was not a football near me
Speaker 14: for that entire time. So I'm I've learned to pick
Speaker 14: my spots in my moments to shine.
Speaker 2: I saw there was an award handed out and went
Speaker 2: to the best looking coach in the NFL. You finished,
Speaker 2: you finished second? I think I think Lafloor. I think
Speaker 2: Lafloor got you.
Speaker 12: I would argue though, like if we could have a
Speaker 12: little bit of a campaign for that, and and you know,
Speaker 12: I think I think he puts a little bit more
Speaker 12: time and effort into what I do.
Speaker 2: And okay, put who puts more time and effort into
Speaker 2: their looks, Sean McVay, Matt Lafleur, well other.
Speaker 14: It's different, right because I think I think Sean probably
Speaker 14: has like a four step process that finishes with that
Speaker 14: hair looking the way it does. You know, I respect
Speaker 14: Matt because he changes up his game sometimes sometimes it's
Speaker 14: a hat, sometimes it's not. But as far as as
Speaker 14: far as facial hair goes, you know, nobody keeps it
Speaker 14: cleaner than Matt.
Speaker 2: I think Matt Lafleur tweezes. I think there's some eyebrow
Speaker 2: work being done there.
Speaker 14: I thought I thought the guys were gonna hit the
Speaker 14: breaking news right there.
Speaker 12: You know, though, I thought I was gonna do something.
Speaker 2: I don't know what you can do in the offseason
Speaker 2: to win this award.
Speaker 12: Yeah, my wife's got a few ideas. Something.
Speaker 2: You don't show the hair though, because.
Speaker 12: I don't don't have that much of it left. I mean,
Speaker 12: this job's taking it.
Speaker 2: Out of it. Laflora and McVeigh show it off. They
Speaker 2: you know, McVeigh has good moss though. I mean, you
Speaker 2: got to admit he's he's.
Speaker 14: One of my closest friends, you know, on on on
Speaker 14: the planet. And I told I got a chance to
Speaker 14: spend some time with them down in New Orleans.
Speaker 12: And I told my sons that, hey, I saw coach
Speaker 12: Sean and.
Speaker 14: They immediately started, you know, and he's been an inspiration
Speaker 14: to them. And uh, they always ask me, why why
Speaker 14: don't I make my hair look like that? And I
Speaker 14: just shake my head.
Speaker 2: But did Sean like he had the Super Bowl ring?
Speaker 2: Do you need to wear the Super Bowl ring?
Speaker 14: You know what, when you win one as a head coach,
Speaker 14: I think you can wear it just about any time
Speaker 14: you want. I know when when Coach Belichick, which was
Speaker 14: how wild was that that the guy that drafted me
Speaker 14: in the NFL hands me the award. But you know,
Speaker 14: as he as they handed it to me and we're
Speaker 14: walking off the stage, you know it was you know,
Speaker 14: I bumped into him and it just clanked against about
Speaker 14: four or five of the ring. So I wanted to
Speaker 14: make sure it wasn't scuffed up or anything it was,
Speaker 14: it was spectacular.
Speaker 2: Enjoy the off season, big decisions coming up and congratulations again.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I appreciate you guys have me on. Always enjoy it. Man.
Speaker 2: That's Kevin O'Connell's second best looking coach in the NFL
Speaker 2: behind Matt Lafleur.
Speaker 6: I believe, yes, Bau, We've known him for a long time.
Speaker 6: He was like helping Johnny Manziel ten years ago, and
Speaker 6: he popped on and then his star just started rising.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 2: You know, you get on certain staffs, and being on
Speaker 2: Sean's staff, you know, the coaching trees, that's where it
Speaker 2: gets pretty impressive. I don't know whose coaching tree is
Speaker 2: the best. It is it parcels Andy Reid's got a
Speaker 2: good coaching tree, or at least guys who have gotten jobs.
Speaker 2: But I don't know. There has to be a list
Speaker 2: of which coach has the best coaching tree in NFL history. Yes,
Speaker 2: more it's.
Speaker 4: Probably got to go back to like maybe like Bill
Speaker 4: Walsh or somebody like.
Speaker 2: But once again, if you go back to Paul Brown,
Speaker 2: I don't know how many assistant coaches he has now
Speaker 2: you have you know there's a quarterback coach receiver. I
Speaker 2: mean there's there's quite a few the coordinators and you know,
Speaker 2: special teams all of that. Yeah, Pauline, there's a few lists.
Speaker 6: It's very detail. But for example, Bill Parcells, beget Bill Belichick,
Speaker 6: Tom Coughlin, Sean Payton, Todd Bowles, Mike Zimmer amongst them. Okay,
Speaker 6: but there's a lot more that, like Marty Schottenheimer, Tony Dungee,
Speaker 6: Bill Cower, Mike McCarthy, Bruce Arians herm Edwards were under
Speaker 6: Schttenheimer at one time.
Speaker 2: But if you I guess totaled up super Bowl wins,
Speaker 2: is that a fair or maybe just victories? Playoff appearance
Speaker 2: play on playoff appearances. We'll take a break. Saturday Night
Speaker 2: Live fiftieth anniversary coming up this weekend, we'll talk to
Speaker 2: one of the stars of the current cast, Heidi Gardner.
Speaker 2: She'll join us Kent City chief Fan too. You know
Speaker 2: when I said to Fritzi, I said, you know, Heidi's
Speaker 2: Kant City Chiefs fan. Let's book her before the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden they lose, and I go,
Speaker 2: does Heidie still want to join us?
Speaker 3: Didn't cancel?
Speaker 2: And Todd said, yeah, she's still gonna be with us
Speaker 2: for that Also, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominations,
Speaker 2: new poll, question your phone calls. We're busy on this Thursday.

Speaker 2: talk about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees.
Speaker 2: Griffin and Cincinnati Hi Griff, Welcome back, Good morning.
Speaker 16: Dan, Dan ets Travis Kelsey should absolutely retire, and the
Speaker 16: perfect replacement for him on the Chiefs will be T
Speaker 16: Higgins because the Bengals are not going to resign him.
Speaker 16: That's almost to guarantee. And T Higgins will be a
Speaker 16: perfect possession receiver for Patrick Mahomes to help him win
Speaker 16: at least another Super.
Speaker 2: Bowls Man, good suggestion. I like T Higgins. It's just
Speaker 2: not being able to get everybody under the South. Does
Speaker 2: Does Joe Burrow ever get frustrated enough that he doesn't
Speaker 2: want to stay in Cincinnati. I'm just curious about that,
Speaker 2: and I don't know why I thought about it, but
Speaker 2: sometimes you hear answers and you hope that you know
Speaker 2: he's going to get these players and Jamar Chase, they're
Speaker 2: going to pay him, and you know, trying to keep
Speaker 2: everybody together Cincinnati. That's not always an easy task. But
Speaker 2: I like, you know, T Higgins is good man, good
Speaker 2: good receiver. H Jeremy and Texas. Hi Jeremy, what's on
Speaker 2: your mind?
Speaker 12: Hey?
Speaker 11: Dan? I know that you love love.
Speaker 15: Yes, I'm kind of with Fritey on this one. My
Speaker 15: wife much rather go on a trip. We went to
Speaker 15: Italy last October. Fist trip ever on off the coast
Speaker 15: is great, going to Mexico and March, going to Dominican
Speaker 15: in May, and we're going to working on trip to
Speaker 15: Spain in October. So she would much rather do that
Speaker 15: than me spend some money on some flowers, et cetera.
Speaker 15: So thoughts on that and I'll hang up and listen.
Speaker 2: Well, Yeah, if you said we're going to have a
Speaker 2: trip or I get flowers, I'm gonna take it the trip.
Speaker 2: Flowers gonna last five days, trip might last five days,
Speaker 2: but I'm having a little bit more fun with something
Speaker 2: like that. Jim in Ohio, Hi Jim, what's on your
Speaker 2: mind today?
Speaker 17: Good morning, Dan and Danett. I have a Super Bowl
Speaker 17: stat with a question. Okay, in Super Bowl history, only
Speaker 17: two starting quarterbacks have won a Super Bowl with two
Speaker 17: different teams, that being Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Does
Speaker 17: my Homes needed immigrate the stat to be considered the
Speaker 17: goat as well as winning seven Super Bowls?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 2: No, we don't need to add degree of difficulty. If
Speaker 2: he wins seven Super Bowls and it's all with Kansas City,
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that. It's like, hey, Tom won with Tampa. Well,
Speaker 2: if Kansas City gets to the point where they don't
Speaker 2: want Patrick Mahomes, then he might get in the position
Speaker 2: where Peyton was and where Tom was. Rock and Roll
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame nominees Seaton and a new poll question
Speaker 2: from Paulie.
Speaker 9: Oh, well, here we could start with Paulie's poll. Would
Speaker 9: you rather play six seasons in the NFL or be
Speaker 9: an SNL cast member for six seasons?
Speaker 2: Okay? Can I decide what position I'm playing in the NFL?
Speaker 6: Absolutely, But if you make it to six seasons the NFL,
Speaker 6: you got a second contract. That's a solid career, not
Speaker 6: a long one. And if you make six seasons in
Speaker 6: same thing with SNL, you probably got a little famous.
Speaker 2: I'd rather be six seasons as a quarterback in the NFL. Yes, Todd, I.
Speaker 5: Would much rather be six seasons on SNL. I'm taking
Speaker 5: the money aside, just an opportunity to do that and
Speaker 5: make people laugh and have all those experiences with different
Speaker 5: funny people and just I just think that's a great
Speaker 5: thing to be pusued.
Speaker 2: Marvin, what about you?
Speaker 4: I'd rather be Terrell Davis than Horatio Sands.
Speaker 6: That's not the actual polosh, no offense.
Speaker 2: Who would you rather be? I'd rather be Terrell Davis
Speaker 2: as well? Saturday Night Live. Some cast members breakout, some don't.
Speaker 2: Keenan Thompson has been there twenty two years now. He's
Speaker 2: great on the show. But some guys are just meant
Speaker 2: for Saturday Night Live, or performers meant for that. Others
Speaker 2: they're there and then they're move on. Yeah, Paul, whose
Speaker 2: career would you want?
Speaker 6: Keenan Thompson, Chase Daniel.
Speaker 2: Chase Daniel A good one, really, Chase Daniel. Yeah, Saturday
Speaker 2: Night Live, that schedule is burutal, burrutal, brutal.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you even get your feelings hurt, you know, not
Speaker 5: being funny on a particular night, but you can get
Speaker 5: physically very very hurt where you can't get up for
Speaker 5: several days.
Speaker 2: He's a backup. Chase Daniel didn't get hurt. He's a backup.
Speaker 9: Yes, that's the thing that I hate about this is
Speaker 9: that I can't remove the money from it.
Speaker 8: I just can't.
Speaker 9: And at SNL, I'm sure some people make pretty good money,
Speaker 9: but most people are being paid in exposure. Hey, Nick
Speaker 9: raat being on SNL. Don't worry about You're gonna make
Speaker 9: money after this. That's what seems like anything that's true.
Speaker 9: Chase Daniel made thirty forty million dollars in his career
Speaker 9: and never really had to do a whole hell of
Speaker 9: a lot. No, that is just way too much money
Speaker 9: to pass on.
Speaker 2: All Right, rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees.
Speaker 8: Yes, are you ready? Yes, we'll start with Bad Company.
Speaker 2: Oh, Paul Rodgers, one of the great lead singers of
Speaker 2: all time. Supergroup embarrassing that they have not been inducted
Speaker 2: into the Hall of Fame. Bad Company absolutely.
Speaker 8: Let's see the Black Crows.
Speaker 2: They're Hall of Fame?
Speaker 12: Were they?
Speaker 8: How about Mariah Carey?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: See, this is where the problem is. Is the title
Speaker 2: the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? If it's the
Speaker 2: music Hall of Fame. Then it's a no doubter. I
Speaker 2: think people get caught up in rock and roll, like
Speaker 2: Mariah Carey's not rock and roll. No she's not, but
Speaker 2: that resume with all the hits and put her in
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 9: I'm most successful artist of all time absolutely Chubby Checker.
Speaker 2: I mean, he gave us a couple of songs. He
Speaker 2: didn't write the songs. I'd say, I think the song
Speaker 2: is in the hall. Let's do the twist. I think
Speaker 2: that's in the Hall of Fame. But I don't think
Speaker 2: he's a Hall of Famer man. I have a hard time.
Speaker 9: I'm not putting Chubby Checker in just because of the twist.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 9: And actually there's another artist later on on the on
Speaker 9: this list that I would say the same thing about.
Speaker 9: How about Joe Cocker. A lot of English musicians on
Speaker 9: this list. Keep fine with your little helpful friend friends. Yeah,
Speaker 9: it's pretty good. I don't know enough of his catalog, so.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know what the requirements are as
Speaker 2: far as hits album sales.
Speaker 3: Isn't he love? Lift us up where we belong?
Speaker 2: Cock and Jennifer Warren Jennifer war.
Speaker 8: So beautiful.
Speaker 2: John Belushi did Joe Cocker a solid when that's when
Speaker 2: it's like Belushi was better at Joe Cocker than Joe Cocker. Correct.
Speaker 2: Who else?
Speaker 8: How about Billy Idol, He's back on the list again.
Speaker 2: My wedding. Uh, he was a big deal.
Speaker 4: He was.
Speaker 9: He's sort of that second British Invasion spark by MTV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Paul a lot of hits in.
Speaker 6: The MTV era. He had a really nice decade.
Speaker 2: MTV was really kind to him.
Speaker 9: Rebel Yell White, Wedding, Dancing with Myself. Dude had some hits.
Speaker 9: Then you go out with Downtown Julie Brown for him
Speaker 9: a major score.
Speaker 2: What else?
Speaker 9: Joy Division and New Order are going in? Well, they're
Speaker 9: nominated together as one band.
Speaker 2: I'm not familiar with them.
Speaker 6: Yes, Joy Division was breaking out and their lead singer
Speaker 6: committed suicide right before they came to America, and then
Speaker 6: the band reformed to do New Order, which had a
Speaker 6: lot of hits in.
Speaker 9: They're like one of those bands that all of your
Speaker 9: favorite bands loved that band kind of thing. Okay, so
Speaker 9: let's see. Cindy Lauper's on the list. Another eighties staple.
Speaker 2: I don't know enough. I felt like she was a character,
Speaker 2: great character, but girls just want to have fun.
Speaker 4: Eighties. Yes more Time after Time might be one of
Speaker 4: the best songs ever.
Speaker 2: Oh true colors, isn't there?
Speaker 9: Okay, all right, we'll get to part two of that
Speaker 9: list coming up. Yeah, we're gonna have to wait till
Speaker 9: after the break well, so we'll talk to Heidi Garden.

Speaker 2: from Saturday Night Live, will join us as well the
