Yeah, so you know that's that's sort 46 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 7: of the state of the organization, state of the franchise 47 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 7: right now following last night's performance. So you guys have 48 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 7: played there, I've never been on the field a soldier field. 49 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 7: So is this always just been a cowpit that they. 50 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 8: Their field has been the worst conditions of any grass 51 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 8: field in the NFL. 52 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 2: It's always been that way. 53 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 8: I don't know the reasons why I never played there 54 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 8: as far as like being a player, but I know 55 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 8: as an away team. 56 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: That it's a cow pastures. 57 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 8: It's not it's not a good field, and it shouldn't 58 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 8: be up to NFL standards, But somehow every single year 59 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 8: they say it is. It is not a good field, 60 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 8: it's not a good surface. 61 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 6: I don't remember. I don't recall it, but you know, 62 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 6: I'll defer to Q on this one. I just I 63 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 6: don't I don't recall the field conditions. 64 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 5: I don't know. 65 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 6: I just remember how inclement the weather conditions were, and 66 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 6: that it was freezing and it. 67 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 5: Was the last game of the year, and. 68 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 6: I just couldn't wait to get a hot shower once 69 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 6: I knew we were going to lose the game and 70 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 6: the game was almost over, and I was like, yeah, yeah, 71 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 6: here we go hot shower and the showers were cold, 72 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 6: I mean crazy cold. And there you had the dilemma 73 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 6: of do you go on the bus and the plane 74 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 6: smelling funky of a football game because the water was 75 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 6: too cold, or do you you know, do you rough 76 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 6: it and clean yourself and make sure that you're clean 77 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 6: for the flight home. 78 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 5: So I chose to get another to the cold water. 79 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,679 Speaker 6: You know, me being who I am and culturally speaking, 80 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 6: that isn't something that I would want to do, be 81 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 6: super super ridiculously cold and cold water. But I did it. 82 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 6: I made it through and got out of there. But 83 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 6: I don't really recall the field condition. 84 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 7: You know, you're ahead of your time. You know a 85 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 7: lot everyone's doing cold plunges. Now you're ahead of your 86 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 7: time doing cold showers. 87 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 6: Well, I was not because I didn't want to do that. 88 00:04:53,240 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 7: Yeah that was that Lorena? 89 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 2: Who was that? 90 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 7: It's a drop damn. 91 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 5: Well. 92 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 7: You know, by the way, did you see the Tyler 93 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 7: Dunn report that was out He wrote a long column 94 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 7: about the dysfunction with the Bears last year. Well, I 95 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 7: think it just came out recently. He had more details. 96 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: On it was in guards to last year. 97 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 7: Though, Yeah, and I guess the Ryan polls the GM 98 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 7: didn't even entertain the idea of taking any other quarterback 99 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 7: when they had the number one pick, Like they invited 100 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 7: Jayden Daniels in for a top thirty visit, but Jade 101 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 7: and Daniels people kind of figured, listen, they're just going 102 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 7: through the motions and not really into this. So everyone 103 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 7: knew he was going to take Caleb Williams. They didn't 104 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 7: even consider They didn't even really do a deep dive 105 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 7: on any of the other prospects. 106 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 5: Uh. 107 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 7: There was a report that people there believed that Caleb 108 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 7: Williams is dyslexic, and Ryan Poles knew that and just 109 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 7: disregarded it. Just all like it just feels like there's 110 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 7: more and more and more that you look back on it, 111 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 7: you go, all right, what direction is everybody heading in? 112 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 7: And yet none of it matters? 113 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 5: But is that true? 114 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 7: There's a lot of a lot of people inside the 115 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 7: building from a year ago. 116 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 5: Could that be considered could that be considered to be slander? 117 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 9: Like? 118 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 6: Could could Caleb Williams take action against people putting that 119 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 6: out there on him? I mean, whether it's true or not, 120 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 6: wouldn't that be his business? To divulge, yeah, versus somebody 121 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 6: else using it the way like I feel like the 122 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 6: way you just said it, it was it's weaponized, you know, 123 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 6: like there's nothing wrong with having a disability, you know 124 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 6: what I mean. So I'm just curious, like if that's 125 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 6: what's coming out, Like, isn't that like isn't that very 126 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 6: very low class? Isn't that whoever's releasing that information or 127 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 6: saying that, like that's real bush league man? 128 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 7: And also none of it actually matters because you're stuck 129 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 7: with him, like you decided to draft Kayleb Williams, Ryan 130 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 7: Poles just got a contract extension. If Ben Johnson can't 131 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 7: get this thing turned around, then there's going to be 132 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 7: massive turnover again. It just it feels like to go 133 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 7: back and look at what they should have done or 134 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 7: the process. I'm not sure why it came out now, 135 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 7: but you know that's been taking place the last forty. 136 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 6: Yes, sad man, it's such an age old thing that 137 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 6: like downgrade the player, always find a way to downgrade 138 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 6: the player to justify something. But go ahead, Q, I'm 139 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 6: curious to hear what you have to say about this. 140 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 8: I mean, I really don't have anything on this that's 141 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 8: obviously something that like if he is dyslexic, whatever, Like. 142 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 2: Whether the bears know or not, they made the decision. 143 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: What does it matter. 144 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 8: I don't think that reading a defense involves uh matters 145 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 8: if you're just lexic. So yeah, I mean you're not 146 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 8: reading a defense. So I mean I had I'll be 147 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 8: more concerned. I'll be more concerned he's color blind. If 148 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 8: he's color blind, I can't tell who the hell is, right, Jerseys, 149 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 8: that's where the concerned.

All right, so what so 177 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 7: what you do is you open up with the lead 178 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 7: from the previous day. That lead would be Monday Night Football, 179 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 7: and for the new audience, you reset and find another 180 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 7: angle in our three. 181 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 5: So wasn't the Vikings? Why wasn't it the Vikings though? 182 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 7: Well, because we spent the first portion of the year. 183 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 2: We really did the Viking. We spent a lot of 184 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 2: time talking about about that Johnson's decision we did to 185 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: not kick it out of the end. 186 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 7: We talked about Kevin O'Connell and JJ McCarthy. 187 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 8: And a little bit a little bit actually, in fact, 188 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 8: I'm the one who talked about that. You didn't say anything, 189 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 8: but did going back to going back to the original conversation. 190 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 8: I do think it's interesting, like people are ragging on 191 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 8: Ben Jhonson, like this is part of coaching, like and 192 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 8: it's kind of like parenting. You know, Parenting's funny because 193 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 8: you know, we've got a lot of kids, and so 194 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 8: people will be like, how do you, like, what do 195 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 8: you do when you have all five and you're by yourself. 196 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,479 Speaker 8: I'm like, I literally put them all in a situation 197 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 8: where they can't die, they can't choke. It's harder for 198 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 8: them to hurt themselves, right, you kind of take out 199 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 8: like the opportunity for something terrible to happen. That's kind 200 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 8: of how I guess you could look at the Ben 201 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 8: Johnson decision to not try to have him kick it 202 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 8: out of the end zone, because if you have any 203 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 8: concerns that Kyra Santo's is not going to kick it 204 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 8: out of the end zone and they're going to return it, 205 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 8: then yes, you should just have them blow it out 206 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 8: the side of the sideline and then the balls at 207 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 8: the forty instead of the thirty five. Like, but I 208 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 8: obviously feel like Ben Johnson's a new coach, probably wants 209 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 8: to believe in his players, that Hey, Cairo gokick this, 210 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 8: go kick us out of the end zone. Okay, coach, 211 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 8: I'll do it. Then it doesn't happen, So it's a 212 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 8: learning lesson. Like my guess is, the next time this 213 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 8: scenario presents itself, he's not going to have him try 214 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 8: to kick it out of the back of the end 215 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 8: zone because of what happened last night. So that's I mean, look, 216 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 8: that's the biggest story of all this, not that it 217 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 8: would really would have mattered, Like we're anticipating that Chicago 218 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 8: would have been able to get the ball back and 219 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 8: kick a field goal to tie, but like that's where 220 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 8: we're at with all this. 221 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 6: Right, I'm gonna say this and then I'm done with 222 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 6: this whole Chicago thing. 223 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 5: It was not a bad loss. And I know you're 224 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 5: not supposed to. 225 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 6: Say there's such thing as a good loss and a 226 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 6: bad loss, But if there were a world that existed 227 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 6: where you could say there's a good loss and then 228 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 6: there's a bad loss, this was not a bad loss 229 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 6: for the Chicago Bears. 230 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 5: It was not. I in my estimation, they played very 231 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 5: well early. 232 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 6: They they built a lead, and they looked like a 233 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 6: team that could be competitive. Now what happened next in 234 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 6: the second half of that game can be up for debate, 235 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 6: and it can be put at the toes and the 236 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 6: feet one hundred percent of a lot of different people 237 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 6: outside of just Caleb Williams and for what it's worth, 238 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 6: even Ben Johnson. But the reality of it is is 239 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 6: that the Minnesota Vikings found a way to persevere. And 240 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 6: that's why we watched the games. That's why we get 241 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 6: excited about watching sport. They found a way to get 242 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 6: through it. They weathered the storm, they came back, they 243 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 6: won the game, and it came down to us having 244 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 6: a conversation about if a ball went out of the 245 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 6: end zone or not and gave maybe them the opportunity 246 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 6: to stop them, because by the way, they still had 247 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 6: to stop them four times, three times probably maybe four 248 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 6: depending on what happens, and get the ball back and 249 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 6: hope that everything goes the right way for them to 250 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 6: have an opportunity to win the game. For that to 251 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 6: be the conversation point. That's a win that they did 252 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 6: not look bad. This was not a game where it's like, 253 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 6: oh my gosh, Caleb looks horrible. Oh the offense looks horrible. 254 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 6: This defense, oh my gosh, they look horrible. I didn't 255 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 6: come away from the game feeling that way, So there 256 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 6: are positives to take away. It's just easy to rag 257 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 6: on the Bears and how things go because they're the Bears, 258 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 6: So you know, I don't. I just think my final 259 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 6: say on it is it wasn't a bad loss. There's 260 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 6: no reason to panic. They're going to be the team 261 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 6: that finishes last in the division. But with that being said, 262 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 6: I think they are going to take a tremendous step forward. 263 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 6: They just happened to be in a division where there's 264 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 6: three really good teams that are on top of them. 265 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 5: My spike, my old spie. 266 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: You mentioned teams that won. 267 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 7: One of those was the forty nine Ers over the weekend, 268 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 7: and unfortunately they got some problems. George Kittle's going to 269 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 7: miss multiple weeks. He's got a hamstring issue. And now 270 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 7: brock purty status for week two is up in the 271 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 7: air because he's got toe and shoulder injuries and that sucks, 272 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 7: but it also means if brock Purty can't go, little 273 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 7: Mac Jones time. Little Mac Jones and Kyle Shanahan's system 274 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 7: just spelling some relief there. This was the guy that 275 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 7: reportedly Kyle Shanahan wanted to draft, but it was John 276 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 7: Lynch who wanted Trey Lance back in the day. So 277 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 7: it looks like we might get our chance to see 278 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 7: mac Jones if in fact brock Purty can't go. And 279 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 7: while the conversation was about Christian McCaffrey and his health 280 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 7: going into week one, now they're going to be with 281 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 7: George Kittle and it's already one week end of the 282 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 7: season and the Niners are dealing with bad injury luck 283 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 7: again just like last year. 284 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: Gok you, I mean, I want me to take it. 285 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 2: It's a little early for this. 286 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 8: It was a concern of mining coming into it. I mean, look, 287 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 8: they got the win this past week, so I mean, look, 288 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 8: every NFL team is kind of surviving, getting through injuries, 289 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 8: getting through guys that are banged up. It's still early 290 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 8: in the week, so we see what next week. You know, 291 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 8: this Week two game looks like, but you know, everyone's 292 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 8: battling something like this. 293 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 2: You know. 294 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 8: The unfortunate part is something feels different about this year's team. 295 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 8: You know, watching San Francisco in Week one, I just 296 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 8: I wonder if they're out their ceiling, Like I wonder 297 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 8: if we've seen them get as far as they gotta go. 298 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 2: Now that being said, I think I. 299 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 8: Had them going to the NFC Championship game, so take 300 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 8: that for what it's worth. But watching them, I wasn't 301 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 8: like overly like wowed, if you will, Like comparing them 302 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 8: to some of the like Green Bay, I was like, okay, 303 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 8: like that's that's a team that's going to compete Philly, 304 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 8: same thing. You know, I didn't get that sense watching 305 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 8: San Francisco. You know, well, we'll see if that changes, 306 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 8: but you know everyone's going to be banged up here shortly. 307 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 8: Just give it a give a couple more weeks and 308 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 8: everyone's gonna be an injury report. 309 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 6: Mac, you'll already know where I'm going with it. Well, 310 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 6: I've already said I'm not high on the Niners. 311 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 7: I'm not high on I was trying to tell I 312 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 7: was trying to tell LeVar that the Niners had peaked, 313 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 7: They'd reached their ceiling. 314 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's he That's exactly what I told you guys. 315 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 7: He didn't want to believe me. I was trying to 316 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 7: fast that. 317 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 5: I told you guys. 318 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 6: Coming into it, I couldn't understand why people are so 319 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 6: high on San Francisco, I just I don't I did 320 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 6: not understand it, and I still don't understand why people 321 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 6: have been so high on the forty nine ers. I 322 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 6: just I just I don't get it. From what I'm 323 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 6: looking at, I don't see a team that can be 324 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 6: very competitive, and it kind of played out on Sunday again. 325 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 6: I will keep my thing consistent. As Q mentioned, it 326 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 6: is week one. I'm not going I'm not gonna know 327 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 6: get carried away because I've already said what I've said 328 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 6: about this team. But if they're going to have the 329 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 6: opportunity of, you know, showing that I was incorrect or 330 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 6: proving that they're a team that can go pretty far 331 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 6: or contend for the NFC West, look, I look at 332 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 6: it like this Arizona didn't look like world world beaters, 333 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 6: and that's who I have winning the division. Can Matt 334 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 6: Stafford's back stay in in alignment and stay good enough 335 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 6: for him to be upright make it through the season, 336 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 6: because that's the other one that I have ahead of 337 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 6: San fran And I don't think Seattle is going to 338 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 6: be good. I feel like Seattle's going to finish last 339 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 6: I felt like I feel like San Francisco is going 340 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 6: to be the third team, and that that Arizona and 341 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 6: the Rams are going to battle it out for the West. 342 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 6: If if Puka Nakua can stay healthy, if Matthew Stafford 343 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 6: can stay healthy enough, I believe they're the pole position 344 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 6: to win. They're the ones to look at coming out 345 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 6: of the NFC West. But if that's not the case, 346 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 6: I really believe that it is the Arizona Cardinals. That's 347 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 6: I believe that. And with that being said, I just 348 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 6: don't believe, with all things given that San fran can 349 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 6: end up being good enough to be a top of 350 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 6: both those teams in the NFC West now, and let 351 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 6: alone even make the playoffs. I don't even know that 352 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 6: this is a playoff team, to be honest. 353 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 7: Jeez, it is two pros and a cup of Joe. 354 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 7: Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas 355 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 7: Knox with you, by the way, brought to you by 356 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 7: LG Speakers.

In your mind, 416 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 8: did it warrant a suspension or she? Excuse me, an 417 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 8: ejection because I felt like the ref really didn't know 418 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 8: the full deal of what was going on there. 419 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 420 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,959 Speaker 9: You know, at least in my experience, there's really been 421 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 9: three automatics in terms of ejections, and it's it's like 422 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 9: something involvement with like out you know, non football, right fighting, 423 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 9: you punch somebody, kick somebody, stomp, you know that type 424 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 9: of thing. Intentional contact with an official and spitting. It's 425 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 9: just always been and the officials have the leeway. The 426 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 9: rulebook talks about personal fouls and all that and fifteen 427 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 9: yard penalties, but if it's flagrant. It can be an ejection. 428 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 9: And then spitting has always been when you talk about 429 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 9: on sportsmanlike considered flagrant because you just somebody spits on you. 430 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 9: That's like utmost disrespect. And what happens after that they're 431 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 9: kind of you know, it escalates. So you know the official, Yeah, 432 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 9: you can get into did Dak instigate it? That whole deal, 433 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 9: but I think in a vacuum, there's no quot Look, 434 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 9: Jaalen Carter spit on back. Official saw it. It's pretty 435 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 9: pretty standard procedure at that point that he's got. 436 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 7: To go, what's the worst you've seen that you've witnessed? 437 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 7: Like this is I can't believe I just watched that. 438 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 9: Oh I don't, you know. It's yeah, I remember some 439 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 9: of those like the one. It wasn't the worst, but 440 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 9: I remember Steelers spangles playoffs when with Joey Porter getting 441 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 9: in the getting in the huddle, and then there was 442 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 9: a whole big thing, you know, uh, you know, we 443 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 9: we had this who was great by the way, but 444 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 9: we had Endomik and Sue come in. You know, remember 445 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 9: he had a little thing, you know, he had maybe 446 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 9: a little little little temper issue, but he was you know, 447 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 9: stomping on guys. And he actually came into the league 448 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,479 Speaker 9: office and we met and I went through the plays 449 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 9: and he was so like, you have thoughtful and went 450 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 9: through it all and and it was just like, this 451 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 9: is the guy that's out there, you know, killing people. 452 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 9: But you know there's been some over the years, but 453 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 9: you know before my time. I mean, there's always the 454 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 9: famous one. And uh who was at Green Bay when 455 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 9: he when he got the quarterback? Who wasn't. 456 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 5: League man? 457 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 9: That's right then? He just I mean that that happened today. 458 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 9: Could you imagine what the suspension would be. 459 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right, And that's pretty interesting to think about. 460 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 6: Let me ask you you this, Dean, I mean, coming 461 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 6: into this weekend, this week's uh round of games. Obviously 462 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 6: you know the Eagles played before the weekend, but the 463 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 6: touch push is still legal. It's still able to be 464 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 6: used and was used and it was used by multiple teams, 465 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 6: which I found to be very interesting. What what was 466 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 6: your stance on it and what's your take on do 467 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 6: you think that this is since it got shot down 468 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 6: to not be removed this past offseason? Is it is 469 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 6: it just a play that's here to stay or do 470 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 6: you see it becoming more of a safety issue. Haven't 471 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 6: seen any or heard of any real major injuries taking place. 472 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 6: But what what's your stance on it? 473 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, person, I don't love the play. Just 474 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 9: there's so many it's it's a hard play to officiate. 475 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 9: You know, you see that, it's just so many bodies 476 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 9: you're trying to find the ball. I don't think it 477 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 9: necessarily legles do it. Great, great for them, it's within 478 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 9: the rules. But this, this had been illegal forever, you know, 479 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 9: prior to you know, early early two thousands. I mean 480 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 9: that that was two thousand and five, two thousand and six, 481 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 9: it had been illegal because it's just you think about 482 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 9: think about from a defensive side of the ball, right, 483 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 9: if you if you if you hit the hit the 484 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 9: running back and you stack them up and you drive 485 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 9: him backward, right, you're not gonna you're not gonna lose. 486 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 9: They're not gonna lose all those yards, right, You're gonna 487 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 9: get forward progress. But on the offensive side, we're gonna, okay, 488 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 9: we're gonna allow the offense to gain that advantage and 489 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 9: push them maybe three four five yards whatever it is. 490 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 9: So I don't love the play. I don't think look 491 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 9: there's no injury data that says that it's a more 492 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 9: dangerous than other short yardage plays. I do know the 493 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 9: health and safety people at the league office don't love it, 494 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 9: and they kind of feel like there is there is 495 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 9: a risk for for head and neck injuries and other 496 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 9: things like that. I think at this point it's gonna 497 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 9: probably two things. Maybe if the ego don't win a 498 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 9: Super Bowl, then there were I know there were a 499 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 9: lot of teams that didn't want to vote it out 500 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 9: last year because it would have felt like sour grapes. 501 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 9: You know, they're really good at it. They won the 502 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 9: Super Bowl. I think if there's a if there's a 503 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 9: you know, knock on wood. Hopefully there isn't, but if 504 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 9: there's like a catastrophic injury, I think that it'll come 505 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 9: up again. I think the conversation, well, we'll we'll kick 506 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 9: up again and they'll start talking about it. 507 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 5: Well. 508 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 8: And that's like my issue with it is it feels 509 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 8: like the NFL is always reactionary and instead of you know, 510 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 8: being proactive about like getting rid of something that it 511 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 8: looks like a rugby play, Like, let's be honest, and 512 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 8: if you look at the injuries that occurrent rugby. It's 513 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 8: mostly neck injuries. People think that because they don't wear helmets. 514 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 8: There like a lot of head injuries. It's mostly neck 515 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 8: because of the way you know that they then do 516 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 8: in those scrums, the way they use their body. You know, 517 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 8: they don't put their head into a tackle oftentimes because 518 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 8: you know of again not having helmets to do so, 519 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 8: so it ends up being the neck that takes the 520 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 8: front of it. I want to transition though to the 521 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 8: kickoff rule because we've seen a huge uptick in kickoff returns, 522 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 8: so clearly, you know, giving a team of the ball 523 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,239 Speaker 8: in the thirty five is having its impact. But they 524 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 8: when they made this change, did they ever look at 525 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 8: just saying let's just move back the kicker to kick. 526 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 2: Off the ball. 527 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, they did. They looked at two things. So I 528 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 9: think year one they didn't know what it was going to. 529 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 9: You know, what the numbers were going to be, where's 530 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 9: the drive start going to go to, how's it going 531 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 9: to impact scoring? And then most importantly, what did the 532 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 9: injury gad They're going to look like it was all positive? Right, 533 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 9: scoring was up right, The drive start went from like 534 00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 9: the twenty five to almost the thirty touchdowns were field 535 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 9: goals were points per game, points per drive. That was 536 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 9: all up, and the injury data was it was the lowest, 537 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 9: But twenty twenty four was the fewest concussions they've had, 538 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 9: you know, ever that you know, in recent memories, since 539 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 9: they've been really recording them the way they're doing now. 540 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 9: So they said, okay, we're going to make it permanent 541 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 9: and let's let's increase the returns. So with the two things, 542 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 9: they said, move the kicker back to the thirty and 543 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 9: or move the touch back to the thirty five. And 544 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 9: they decided to just go with the touchback. And you know, 545 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 9: through week one it's over seventy percent. That's a that's 546 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 9: a huge jump. I mean, that's that's back to the 547 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 9: numbers back in the day when the kick return was 548 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,239 Speaker 9: was a big part of the game. So, you know, 549 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 9: I think they'll see, you know, look at it another 550 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 9: year and if they want to the numbers are all positive, 551 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 9: maybe they keep it as is or but the thirty 552 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 9: was definitely in the conversation, but they decided not to 553 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 9: do it this year. 554 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 7: It's Dean Blando joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. 555 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 7: I was just gonna mention on the kickof It's it 556 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 7: seems like every off season we're having a discussion about 557 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 7: a new tweak or change to the kickoff. Do you 558 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 7: and I hope they never get rid of it because 559 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 7: I think it's how you start games. I think it's 560 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 7: it is football to me, that's how you know a 561 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 7: game is about to go, it's about to kick off. 562 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 7: Could you ever envision a world though, to where they 563 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 7: just say, yeah, you know, what. 564 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 2: Is this? 565 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 7: How much do we really need this and let's just 566 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 7: let's go ahead and just move on from it. Do 567 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 7: you think that that that's been kicked around or is 568 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 7: there been discussions about do you just get rid of 569 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 7: it altogether? I hope that never happens. But could you 570 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 7: see the league overreacting to a point to where they 571 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 7: make that move? 572 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 9: Well, it was getting close prior to this change, It 573 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 9: really was. There was a lot of people that were 574 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 9: just like, hey, the injuries, it's it's so much higher 575 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 9: than other plays, you know, plays, some scrimmage things like that, 576 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 9: So let's just put them all in twenty five and 577 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 9: go or pick a pick a yard line and go. 578 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 9: But I think with this change, and this was a 579 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 9: drastic change, I mean, think about it. This is like 580 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 9: people look at this. I mean, we did this in 581 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 9: the XFL. I was a part of that back in 582 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 9: twenty twenty, and it's different. I mean, and so there 583 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 9: was some you know, some kind of hesitation in terms 584 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 9: of do we want to make this type of change. 585 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 9: But to your point, Jonas, it's like they wanted to 586 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 9: save the play ultimately because it is it's part of 587 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 9: the fabric of the game. I mean, we used kickoff 588 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 9: all the time as NFL kickoff, and that's how the 589 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 9: game starts. And the most exciting play I ever saw live, 590 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 9: one of the most exciting plays was was Devin Hester 591 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 9: returning the opening kickoff in the Super Bowl. I mean 592 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 9: that's and so I think ultimately they wanted to save 593 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 9: the play. And I think this has I can't see 594 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 9: where the injuries are. I can't see it, you know, 595 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 9: all of a sudden, just going going to a level 596 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 9: where the health and safety and then people get together 597 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 9: and say we got to get rid of it. So 598 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 9: I think they have saved the play. 599 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 6: Dan, you watch the games from a different level, a 600 00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:02,959 Speaker 6: different understanding. I wonder what what were you seeing during 601 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 6: the games that you know you put into your notes, 602 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 6: like Oh, that's something to focus in on. That's something 603 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 6: to discuss that maybe us that don't have the same 604 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 6: eye of looking at the game the way you're looking 605 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 6: at it would would be able to see. 606 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, for me, you know, I always and I think 607 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 9: you guys probably know this as well. Like the first 608 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 9: couple of weeks is it's the football is not great, 609 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 9: like like and I think not great meaning mean, you're right, 610 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 9: you know when you're when you're talking about how when 611 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 9: we get into like we Gate nine. Now, now this 612 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 9: is like we're playing NFL football and everybody's kind of 613 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 9: everybody's kind of you know, firing on all cylinders. But 614 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 9: it's like nobody plays in the preseason, right, So and 615 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 9: it's and so what see you're going You see a 616 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 9: lot of like formation stuff. You see a lot of 617 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 9: pre snat penalties and things like that and the things 618 00:31:58,680 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 9: they got to clean it up. 619 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 5: I mean I did. 620 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 9: We did the Washington Giants game on on Sunday, and 621 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 9: there was just a lot of stuff that that you know, 622 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 9: and these guys aren't playing together as much. You know, 623 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 9: practice is practice, but you can't simulate that that that 624 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 9: real game feel and speed and everything else. So it's 625 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,959 Speaker 9: just you know, and last year was was there were 626 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 9: there were six pre snap penalties like formations and false 627 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 9: starts and offside those types of things, six per game, 628 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 9: which was the most since two thousand and five. So 629 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,719 Speaker 9: it's it's just cleaning that stuff up. So you notice 630 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 9: a lot of that, and some of it is just 631 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 9: officials don't don't call. So even for the officials, you're 632 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 9: kind of they're not in mid season form. So it's 633 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 9: just like that that tipe the first couple of weeks. 634 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 9: It's just almost like extended preseason. 635 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: M a serious question. 636 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 6: Nope, sorry go ah no, no, I just say I 637 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 6: totally agree with that, but go gok you. 638 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a serious question. It's one that I think 639 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 2: needs to be answered. We're seeing a lot of dildos 640 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 2: being thrown on the core. I mean, at what point, Dean, 641 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 2: is this thing get out of hand, the. 642 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 8: Song gets struck by one, or like, what's the punishment 643 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 8: that we're going to handle this? 644 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 2: Are the officials who's supposed to pick it up? Do 645 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 2: you pick it up by the end? Like which end 646 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 2: you pick it up? 647 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 9: I always know when Brady says this is a serious question, 648 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 9: how unseious it's going to be. But there is there 649 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 9: is a there is a dedicated official on each crew 650 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 9: that is responsible for the dildo. Oh it's not. It's 651 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 9: not the same position per crew. They'll they'll dedicate whoever 652 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 9: it is, Like, Okay, you know, Tony, it's you today 653 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 9: and uh and yeah, I mean to me, I think 654 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 9: you pick it up by the shaft. I think that's 655 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 9: just me. 656 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: That's a good point.
