1
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up?

2
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: Straight Fire?

3
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: Fam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight Fire for Monday, November fourth.

4
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: It's election week and I will do my best. I

5
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: promise to not talk politics this week. I mean, listen,

6
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 2: we got bigger fish to fry. We got the NFL

7
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: trade deadline coming up on Tuesday. It's gonna be a

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 2: big one. We got NFL news breaking right before Rob

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: g and I jump on here late Sunday night, East coast,

10
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: it's probably after midnight, but on the West Coast, Luke

11
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: Getze just got canned as the OC of the Raiders.

12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: Who could have possibly seen that coming. I mean, he

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 2: was a terrible offensive coordator with the Bears. I don't

14
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: know why they hired him in Vegas, and then he

15
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: went through Gardner, minshew A, and O'Connell. They had to

16
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: resort to Desmond Rittter on Sunday in a beatdown against

17
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: the Bengals and then gets he gets run. I guess

18
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: pierces field in the heat. He's a terrible coach and

19
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: I think Antonio Pierce will be probably fired at the

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: end of this season. One and done. But that's not

21
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 2: where I need to start the podcast. I had a

22
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 2: phenomenal weekend. My daughter's soccer team down a bunch of players.

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 2: We go two and oh, and we were underdogs in

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 2: both games. Went two and oh. Okay. My son enters

25
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 2: a chess tournament, a couple good wins, a couple tough losses,

26
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: lost to a guy who lost to the championship. But

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: it was fun being the chess crowd. Guys, I think

28
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: I've talked about on the podcast. The chess crowd is

29
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 2: something to behold. I told you guys this. I pitched

30
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: an idea to a buddy who has a production company.

31
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 2: Man you've seen like Dance Moms or whatever it's called

32
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: Cheerleader Mom, whatever that crap is. I don't watch it,

33
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 2: but I'm telling you there is a market for like

34
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: chess families or whatever you want to call it, because

35
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: you go to one of these chess tournaments. It is

36
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 2: crazy and these people are smart as hell. It's super interesting. Anyways,

37
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 2: and then my son and I for the first time,

38
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys have seen this movie

39
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 2: it's called Deadpool, A little late on it, but we

40
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 2: watched Deadpool and it was like, pretty damn good.

41
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: I liked it.

42
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed Deadpool. I know I'm way late to

43
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: the game, so now we'll watch Deadpool versus Wolverine this week.

44
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 2: Mostly we were able to watch that Saturday because a

45
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: college football slate stunk. However, in it was an amazing

46
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: gambling weekend, and I'm bearing the lead college football. We

47
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 2: gave out eleven bets. You guys, if you listen to

48
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: the podcast Friday, they were eleven bets eight two and

49
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: one in college football, eight two and one. Unbelievable weekend

50
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: in college football, NFL contest awesome for me, four and one.

51
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni cost me the perfect five and zero. I

52
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: will tear him to shreds, assuming Egos fans don't get

53
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 2: to him first later in the podcast, but I think

54
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: we need to start. There were a lot of good

55
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: storylines Sunday in the league, not a lot of great games.

56
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: Favorites dominated thirteen and one straight up, ten and four

57
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: against the spread, Favors just rolling. We're seeing a clear

58
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 2: line of the bad teams and the aggressively bad and

59
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: then the good. I just went to that site that

60
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 2: I do when I do mock drafts for Fox Sports.

61
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: The site Tankathon. It has the order. Are you guys

62
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: ready there are seven teams that are two and seven

63
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Okay, after the Carolina Panthers, the hapless

64
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: Panthers get a dub, they are now in that group

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: of two and seven just awful teams, and a lot

66
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: of those coaches are gonna get run we I'm trying

67
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 2: to think. I kind of want to start with the

68
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 2: Saints losing to the Panthers and what unfolded there, but

69
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 2: I don't know. For whatever reason, I'm drifting toward the Cowboys,

70
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 2: who you guys know, I love the Falcons. This week

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: all over the Falcons and they faced Dallas and pretty

72
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: early it was like, Okay, this Falcons offense, as we predicted,

73
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: is gonna move the football. And then McCarthy, you'd think,

74
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: I think it might have been a little bit of

75
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: an early panic situation because in the first half McCarthy

76
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: and again this is the game was not over by

77
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: any stretch. It was seven to three, and then McCarthy

78
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: starts with this crazy hey, let's uh, let's try to

79
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: jet sweep to CD LAMB on fourth and one from

80
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: our own territory. I was like, Okay, of course, the

81
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 2: Falcons didn't get to stop on the jet sweep, and

82
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 2: then they go down and end up scoring on that drive,

83
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 2: so they're now up fourteen to three. Later on in

84
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: the first half, Dallas inexplicably tries a fake punt from

85
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 2: your own end a guy who hasn't thrown a pass.

86
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: I think I saw the stat he hadn't thrown a

87
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: pass in his career, and the guy who he was

88
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,559
Speaker 2: throwing to had like one catch in the last eight years,

89
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 2: and it's like, why not just go for it? What

90
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 2: are you doing? And that, of course didn't work. A

91
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 2: resulted in a touchdown, and at this point you're like,

92
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 2: my gosh, McCarthy's freaking out, and you see McCarthy chuck

93
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 2: the headset on the sideline, very upset. Things spiraled. In

94
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: the second half, Falcons open it up and they cruise

95
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 2: to victory. This is where it gets bad and why

96
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: I think the Cowboys are a big story here. Forget

97
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 2: the fact that they got run over indoors again, which

98
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: is I'm telling you that's happening. This is a real thing.

99
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: They are a slow football team, even though Rico Daudell

100
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 2: showed up, and they're their best running game of the

101
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: of the of the season. By the way, Zeke Elliott

102
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: bench left behind in Dallas because he was so upset

103
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: with what's happening. He just late to meetings and blowing

104
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: stuff off at That's exactly what you expect from your

105
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: veteran Jerry Jones's guy. And don't be fooled by the

106
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty one final. This was not remotely close.

107
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 2: The Falcons offense did whatever they wanted because the Cowboys

108
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: defense stinks. Now you guys can say, oh, well, Michael

109
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 2: Parsons isn't there and digs and they got absolutely trucked.

110
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: I don't care about the garbage time down two scores

111
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter from Cooper rush. Why was Cooper

112
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: rushing there? Because Dak Prescott suffered a hamstring injury. Now

113
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: on the sideline, they were looking at his hand and

114
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: you're like, oh oh, he was like kind of you know,

115
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 2: they had a punch of people around him, but the

116
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: camera saw him like doing something with his hand and

117
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: they were checking it out. I'm telling you, man, this

118
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: thing is going downhill fast. The ship be sinking in Dallas,

119
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: and dak hamstring forced him to miss the rest of

120
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: the game. It's unclear if he's going to be able

121
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: to come back this week. And that's kind of a

122
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 2: big deal because, oh, would you look at that, They've

123
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: got the Philadelphia Eagles in a huge, huge game that

124
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: a loss for Dallas probably ends the season, okay, And oh,

125
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: by the way, I think the season is over for

126
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: them anyway. And oh, by the way, the Eagles just

127
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 2: rang up two hundred and thirty seven yards on the ground.

128
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 2: Dallas has the worst run defense, I believe in the league,

129
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: or it's bottom three, and so if you're talking no Dak,

130
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 2: now maybe And oh, by the way, ceed Lamb suffered

131
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: an injury in the fourth quarter, Lamb diving for a

132
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: touchdown catch and could not make it happen, leaves the game.

133
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: He ended up coming back for one play in the

134
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 2: red zone in the in the final couple of minutes.

135
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if he was trying to pad his stats.

136
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 2: But not a good afternoon at all for the Cowboys.

137
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 2: And there was a video rob of Dak on the sideline,

138
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 2: and you know, as a veteran, he's got to know

139
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 2: that the cameras always going to be on him. And

140
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 2: it is very clear that Dak mouths we effing suck.

141
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: He says it clear as day. You know, and listen,

142
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: you guys know, I coach my kid and his friends,

143
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 2: so we're always we always have good teams, but there

144
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: have been down days where we'll lose or whatever, and

145
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: guys think we suck and they're really harsh, and the

146
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 2: kids will say, oh, we suck, man, We're so bad,

147
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: and like, why would you say that about yourself and

148
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 2: your team? What's the point of that? And I just

149
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 2: talk it up to oh, this is just kids. They're

150
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 2: very emotional. And to see Dak Prescott say that I

151
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: was sunned, I mean, rob, it was one of those

152
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: like listen, man, that video is gonna get back to Jerry,

153
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 2: and I know Jerry's working on the McCarthy stuff. It's

154
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: very clear McCarthy is on his last legs there in Dallas.

155
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 2: Some of those decisions he made were not very good.

156
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: Nothing panned out. Obviously, he's got some guys that are injured.

157
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: But everybody who wants to run McCarthy out of town

158
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: just remember this. Jerry Jones is responsible for this roster.

159
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: And they don't have any talent like they did a

160
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 2: few years ago. They just don't and don't blame it

161
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: because you paid Dak. Don't just blame it on Dak.

162
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 2: Jerry has made some very low IQ decisions when it

163
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 2: comes to who they want his whole Like, we couldn't

164
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 2: afford Derrick Henry, the hell you couldn't the hell you

165
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: couldn't afford Derrick Henry. Make that happen, by the way,

166
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 2: you know, who gets fourth and one so you don't

167
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 2: have to jet sweep it to your wide receiver, Derrick Henry.

168
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: He's hammering fourth and one, by the way. I wonder, Rob,

169
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 2: if the media starts to, like, you know, there's this

170
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: movement now, like who's the Offensive Player of the year.

171
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 2: MVP always goes to a quarterback, but I saw a

172
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: lot of media members say, well, Derek Henry's got to

173
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 2: be in the mix for Offensive Player of the Year.

174
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 2: Now it's probably gonna go to whoever doesn't win the MVP,

175
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: Lamar Goff, whatever, But Derek Henry's having a monster season,

176
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: And Rob, you just couple that with how the Cowboys

177
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: look Eagles game on deck, Dak injured, no Michael Parsons,

178
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: digs Bland. It's all just a big poo poo platter

179
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 2: and the Cowboys. It feels like they're great run here

180
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 2: over the last what six years? Contenders it's over?

181
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. And you know what's funny is there are

182
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 3: people who will suggest that because the Cowboys didn't win

183
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 3: in the postseason, or didn't win a Super Bowl, or

184
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,599
Speaker 3: didn't advance anc Championship game, that it has been a

185
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 3: colossal failure in Dallas. And I think that what most

186
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 3: people don't understand is do they have like a warped

187
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 3: view of what success is in the NFL, like the

188
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 3: Patriots and the Chiefs. Is not normal like that, That's

189
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 3: not what happens, right, Mike tom Linning in Pittsburgh, they've

190
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 3: been over five hundred. Has loosened season's entire career. For

191
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 3: a lot of teams like my Raiders, that would be

192
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: a success, Like our New York Jets, that would be

193
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 3: a success. The Dallas Cowboys have won twelve games each

194
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 3: of the last three seasons. This year the wheels fall off,

195
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: and everyone's gonna be like, see this, this this sucks,

196
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 3: This is terrible, and this is kind of what happens.

197
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: This is par for the course. The only reason why

198
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: it's such a big deal is because it's the Cowboys,

199
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 3: and because they have the highest paid quarterback in NFL history,

200
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: one of the highest paid wide receivers in NFL history,

201
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 3: and they have a Carnival Barker as their owner, slash GM,

202
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: who cannot stop himself from talking into a microphone anytime

203
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 3: once put in his face. There was videos circling around

204
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 3: late Sunday night that showed Jerry getting emotional talking about

205
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 3: Michael Irvin of all people. I don't know if this

206
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 3: was before after the game, but it's like, my brother,

207
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 3: you just lost your third straight game. Your quarterback popped

208
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: a hammy who hasn't been playing well anyways. Three touchdowns,

209
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 3: four picks in the last three games, all losses. Your

210
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 3: wide receiver's hurt, your best pass rushers hurt, your second

211
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 3: best pass rusher is hurt, one of your best corners

212
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 3: is hurt. And you have a talent deficiency across all

213
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: of your skill positions this side of CD LAMB. So

214
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 3: you would think that that's where his folks would be.

215
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: But Jerry Jones, as we've seen throughout the last few

216
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 3: weeks and the last few years for that matter, is

217
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 3: talking about the tours, talking about the glory days of

218
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 3: the nineties, he's talking about, you know, the questions he's

219
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: been asked by members of the media at his radio

220
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 3: show that he pays people to host like they're worried

221
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 3: about all the wrong things. And that's been a culture

222
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 3: problem for them for a long long time. And now

223
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: to your point, to spend this all forward, this is

224
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 3: all more than likely gonna end with Mike McCarthy getting fired.

225
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And I'm not saying Mike McCarthy's a great coach,

226
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: but to say that he's the problem in Dallas would

227
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 3: be incorrect.

228
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: It's probably good for him to get I mean, it's

229
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: not never good to get fired, but I'm sure I

230
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,119
Speaker 2: don't I think Macarthy'll probably get another job, maybe not immediately,

231
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 2: but Rob, listening to you outline that, I gotta ask.

232
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: I mean, Jerry's got too much pride for this. Do

233
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 2: you think there's any world where they be come sellers

234
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 2: at the deadline? I don't. The problem is, I don't

235
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: know that they have that much talented enough with the problem.

236
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 2: They don't have a lot of dudes.

237
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 3: They have like five guys who are fantastic, And I

238
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 3: would even include Dak in that because I think Dak,

239
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 3: you know, on a week to week basis is somewhere

240
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: in the top ten of NFL quarterbacks. You know, the

241
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: Sunday not being a good example, and you know, obviously

242
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 3: the last couple of games not being a good example.

243
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 3: But you know what he did against Pittsburgh there, bouncing

244
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 3: back from the interceptions to have the game winning drive.

245
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 3: What he did against the Giants the week before was

246
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 3: pretty good.

247
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 2: You know.

248
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 3: Last year, I believe he was second in the MVP

249
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 3: and was an All Pro. So you know it's in

250
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 3: him to play well Ceedee Lamb is great, Michael Parsons

251
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 3: is great. The problem is they have like five guys

252
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 3: and names like the names don't match the level of play,

253
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 3: and that all points back to the general manager, who

254
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 3: is the owner, who is not going to fire himself,

255
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 3: you know, so he'd rather pay everybody like paid Dak,

256
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 3: pay CD. He's gonna pay Micah you know back in

257
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 3: the day, paid Zeke. And you can't have all of

258
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 3: these guys making top of the market money and then

259
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 3: just fill in the gaps with guys who have big

260
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: names maybe aren't ready to contribute at the way you

261
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 3: need them to.

262
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was watching the game closely, obviously, I had

263
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: the Falcons, so I was pot committed. And this kid

264
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 2: lost and starts making plays off the edge for the Cowboys.

265
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 2: I was like, who the hell is lows In? And

266
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 2: I look up and it's Carl Lawson, former Jet who

267
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 2: had an achilles injury. And I was like, oh, loss

268
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 2: is having a monster. Get me a two sacks, two

269
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 2: tackles for loss. He was living in the backfield, so

270
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: rob I went to PFF and I was like, oh,

271
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 2: we lost. It must be Oh my gosh, he's been

272
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 2: awful all season. According to PFF one hundred and thirteen

273
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: edge rushers, he grades out as one hundred and one.

274
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 2: Now that's just one metric, but I'm thinking, like, who

275
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 2: could they sell? Could you try to get rid of

276
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 2: loss and off of off a big game? Would anybody take?

277
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,439
Speaker 2: Could you get a fifth round pick? I doubt it.

278
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: I have no idea. And you look around and you're like, okay,

279
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: they can't move off off. It's at lineman. They don't

280
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 2: even have a second receiver who anybody would want after

281
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 2: CD Lamp. They don't have a running back. I mean,

282
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 2: you can't get rid of Fergus and he feels like

283
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 2: he's you know, he's a good player. He's a good

284
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: young player. You drafted him. That's a win. I don't

285
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 2: think the Cowboys have any assets to sell now. This

286
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: is this next team. Rob is interesting because when I

287
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: initially saw this video, I was like, oh damn, so again.

288
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 2: I was running around Sunday morning watching the game on

289
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 2: my phone, driving and listening to the game. But I

290
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 2: wasn't I don't do the pregame shows much. But apparently

291
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 2: Jake Glazer had some notes on the Chicago Bears that

292
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 2: were not good. Some stuff went down with the cornerback

293
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 2: who was dicking around with the fans and then got

294
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: beat number twenty nine. I'm spacing on his.

295
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 3: Name, Tyrek Stevenson.

296
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: Stevenson, thank you. Stevenson, you know makes that buffoon play,

297
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: just absolutely clown behavior. And it's like, okay, maybe he's

298
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: going to be benched or what have you. But Glazer

299
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 2: claims when they benched him, he didn't take it well

300
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: and left the facility. Now there's a young player, Okay,

301
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 2: obviously that maybe the Bears didn't handle it well. I

302
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 2: don't know how you want to frame it, but bottom line,

303
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 2: it's not good. And then the Bears come out and

304
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: they're kind of getting embarrassed a little bit. And there

305
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 2: was a moment at the end of the half. It

306
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 2: was fourteen to nine and Arizona is trying to get

307
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 2: hi field goal range or just run out the clock,

308
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: and they hand it off to not even James Connor,

309
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: who had a monster game, but it was de Mercado

310
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 2: and he just starts running and there's like no bears anywhere,

311
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 2: and he scores a fifty three yard touchdown. It was like, wait,

312
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: is this real? Did that play happen or was there

313
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 2: a false start? Like how did I miss this? How

314
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 2: the hell do you give up a fifty three yard

315
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 2: touchdown run in the final thirty seconds of the half

316
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: that never happens. Well, it turns out that is the

317
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 2: longest touchdown run in the final third these seconds of

318
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: a half this century. That was a stat that does

319
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: I guess stat's an INFO put out. So it was like, oh,

320
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 2: that's a meltdown. And then here's the coup de gras.

321
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 2: After the game, Caleb Williams at the podium is talking about,

322
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 2: you know, rebounding from the loss to on the Hail Mary,

323
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 2: and he essentially says, you know, early in the week

324
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 2: we could have done a better job to bounce back

325
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 2: after a tough loss. And then he goes on to say,

326
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 2: you know, regardless of who you are, whether you're making

327
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: plays or you're making decisions up top, we all could

328
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: have done a better job. I was like, Okay, I

329
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 2: know they love Caleb Williams. He was the number one pick.

330
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: He's the franchise best quarterback prospect they've ever had. Did

331
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: he just call out like the entire front office and

332
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: coaching staff in one fell swoop? I think he did,

333
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 2: And I mean that's kind of stunning. I think it's

334
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 2: an indictment on Eberflus. This is the first time the Bears.

335
00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: I think this is the first time at least that

336
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 2: the Bears looked like I mean, they did not look

337
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 2: They didn't look like a playoff team, nothing resembling a

338
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 2: playoff team, and sadly, for three quarters against Washington they

339
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 2: did not look good either. But by and large, they've

340
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: been competitive in their losses. The Texans game, you know, way,

341
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 2: they didn't look good, but they covered the spread. The

342
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 2: Colts game, they were bad, but it was competitive deep

343
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 2: into the fourth quarter. This one was the first game

344
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 2: where you're like, oh, damn, so last week. Obviously a

345
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: gut wrenching loss to drop you to four and three,

346
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 2: but to bounce back and have really the first time

347
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 2: that you got your ass kicked is a little surprising.

348
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 2: Now this is where it gets even worse. So I

349
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: started to drill down on the numbers. Arizona's defense is

350
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 2: bottom five in the league by almost every metric. The

351
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 2: Bears had two hundred and forty one yards of offense

352
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 2: and three point four yards per play. Wait, wait, really,

353
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: so the Bears no showed? Essentially, Caleb calls out everybody

354
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 2: and they dropped to four and four. Huh what is happening?

355
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 2: And I wonder Rob, we saw Luke Getzia, the Raiders

356
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 2: Zosci get fired. Do you think they let ebra flus

357
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 2: finish the season or do you think there's a world

358
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 2: where ownership says damn coming off a brutal loss, Fuck damn,

359
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: we got run in Arizona. Do we get rid of

360
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 2: ibraflues now and give the interim a chance? And here's

361
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 2: the big reason. If there is a run on coaches,

362
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 2: Remember I said there's seven two and seven teams. I

363
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 2: think everyone who agreed Doug Peterson is cooked. Everyone agrees

364
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 2: Dennis Allen, who I guess will do a few minutes

365
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: on he's done. I think Carolina keeps their coach. I

366
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 2: think Stefanski's okay. Antonio Pears, I don't know, Gered Mayo,

367
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, honestly, I know it's just one year, Daboll,

368
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 2: We'll see. So you're looking at definitely one hundred two

369
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 2: teams are going to be firing their coaches. Do you, rob,

370
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 2: if you are Chicago or Philly, who I'll get too shortly?

371
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 2: Do you try to get ahead of things and get

372
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 2: rid of your coach, which so you can have the

373
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 2: first crack, so you could start to work the back

374
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 2: channels to go after I don't know. The greatest coach

375
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 2: in NFL history, Bill Belichick, who seems to be having

376
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: fun dressing up with his like twenty five year old

377
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,199
Speaker 2: girlfriend and doing funny photos for Instagram. I'm sure you

378
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 2: saw that. But like, I just wonder, if you're Chicago,

379
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 2: let's get this shit in the butt right now, you're out,

380
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 2: We're starting fresh, let's finish strong, and we want XYZ.

381
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 2: Maybe Chicago wouldn't go for Belichick. I mean, why would

382
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 2: you want to bring in a winning culture guy to

383
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 2: a franchise that hasn't had a culture in I don't

384
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 2: know years. But I'm just curious, Rob, I wonder if

385
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 2: this loss and the Caleb Williams comments were enough that

386
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,719
Speaker 2: the Bear's ownership will take a look. Now they got

387
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 2: the Patriots this week, I will be betting that in

388
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 2: short order. Here, I think they're a lock in that one.

389
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 2: But after that, Packers, Vikings, Lions, Niners, Vikings Lions. Like that,

390
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: that's a brutal stretch.

391
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 3: Look, I'm over a belief that they should have fired

392
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: Ibra Flues before the season starting, Like so that's number one.

393
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 3: So that take that for what it's worth. I don't

394
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 3: see what they gained though by firing him in the midseason, right,

395
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: because their offensive court is Shane Waldron Right is their

396
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator. There was that viral interview I believe with

397
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 3: Jackson Smith's and Jigbut at the Super Bowl at the

398
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 3: radio row and they said, hey, why don't you tell

399
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: these guys what they're gonna get in their offensive coordinator?

400
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 3: And he was like paused for like forty seconds because

401
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 3: he couldn't think of anything good to say about him,

402
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 3: Like that's what they were coming into. So I don't

403
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 3: know who you would replace Ebra Fluce with that you

404
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 3: think would give you a better chance to win, because,

405
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 3: as you alluded to, that schedule coming up over the

406
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 3: next month and a half is absolutely brutal. Right, Yeah,

407
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 3: I think you could honestly make a case that their

408
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 3: blowout win over Jacksonville in London ahead of the BIBE

409
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: was the worst thing that could happen to them because

410
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 3: it gave them this false sense of, hey, maybe we

411
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 3: can make a run at the playoffs. Maybe Caleb Williams

412
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 3: can you know, turn a corner and and lead us

413
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 3: to the promised land that we've been searching for for

414
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 3: decades now at this point, and the fact of the

415
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 3: matter is is as prodigious as his talent level is,

416
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams is still a rookie quarterback. He's still gonna

417
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 3: make rookie mistakes. He still has a lot to learn,

418
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 3: both on the field and off the field. Just the

419
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 3: fact that he said what he said publicly tells you

420
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 3: that he's not in the emotional or mental head space

421
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 3: to be a leader on that team like he One

422
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 3: of the things that you learn, right or wrongly as

423
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 3: a member of the media is there are certain guys

424
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 3: like a Tom Brady, like a Peyton Manning, like a

425
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, who just get it. They are never gonna

426
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 3: do or say anything that's gonna ruffle any kind of feathers,

427
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 3: that's gonna cause any kind of infighting, that's gonna create

428
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 3: any kind of headlines in the locker room. Then you

429
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 3: have other guys who just can't seem to help themselves.

430
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers. There's a reason why his leadership is always

431
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 3: questioned because he's always going to say what's on his mind.

432
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 3: It's always going to lead to more questions. It's gonna

433
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 3: make things very uncomfortable. So what they need to do

434
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 3: is realize that this is not going to be a quick,

435
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 3: fixed kind of thing. You're gonna lose a lot this season,

436
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: which you're supposed to historically with the rookie quarterback. What

437
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 3: they need if they're gonna lean into this Caleb Williams,

438
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 3: you know, in his style of play and being a heavy,

439
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,479
Speaker 3: high octane offense with all the receivers that they have

440
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 3: and the running backs that they have, then you're gonna

441
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 3: want to start fresh. Get either the Detroit Lions offensive

442
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 3: coordinator of his name, escape me right now, yes, men, Johnson.

443
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 3: I remember Kubiak was a hot name there for two weeks.

444
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 3: I don't think that's the case anymore in New Orleans.

445
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 3: He could be the interim in New Orleans with the

446
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 3: exactly you know, We'll see what happens with Slowick in Houston.

447
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 3: But whoever the next hot name, offensively is who they

448
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 3: need to worry about. And I just don't think that

449
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 3: them making a firing now is necessarily going to help

450
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 3: you jump the gun in that regard.

451
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 2: And get the inside track. That's fair. I was just

452
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 2: looking at the Bears coaching staff. My gosh, a bunch

453
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 2: of dudes I've never heard of. I don't know who

454
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 2: the interim would be. They're special teams guys, Richard high Tower,

455
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 2: their DC is Eric Washington. These are guys who've been

456
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 2: around for a while, just never made anything happen. And

457
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 2: then Waldron, and now I don't know if Waldron's coaching

458
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 2: safe because oh damn, you know my coaches on the

459
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 2: hot seat. As defensive minded said, I should do the

460
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 2: XYZ like if you unleash Waldron, has he become a

461
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: different guy offensively? I don't know, like you said, others

462
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 2: have called him out and it has.

463
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,880

Speaker 1: Search FSR to listen live. But I mentioned Dennis Allen.

467
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: I'll be real quick, because nobody gives a shit about

468
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: the Saints. So they opened the season with two amazing victories.

469
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: A bunch of people like see, I told you this

470
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: team was undervalue.

471
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 2: You know, the typical usual suspects. Saints have lost seven straight.

472
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 2: They lost this one to the Carolina Panthers. Just unbelievable

473
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 2: ineptitude from the Saints. Now, this is what's so weird

474
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 2: about the NFL. You guys, listen, we talk about it

475
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,439
Speaker 2: five days a week here on the podcast. I'm just

476
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: gonna give you some stats from the game. First downs,

477
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 2: New Orleans twenty five to fifteen total yards four twenty

478
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 2: seven New Orleans, two forty six Carolina, So about one

479
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy five yards per play, five point eight

480
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 2: to four point nine rushing yards one hundred and ninety

481
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,479
Speaker 2: seven for the Saints. Kamara went off to eighty okay,

482
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 2: and the Saints lost. Now I'm dumbfounded by how they

483
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: lost this game because I wasn't really invested in it

484
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 2: that much, and I just it didn't make sense why

485
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 2: I would back the Saints in this spot in like

486
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 2: a considerable manner, didn't even consider them for the contest.

487
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 2: So penalties ten for one oh nine obviously not a

488
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 2: good look for the head coach Dennis Allen. Also settling

489
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 2: for a lot of field goals not good. Then you

490
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 2: had the Chris o'lave, the hospital ball from Derek car

491
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 2: to Chris o'lave. He gets knocked out second concussion this season.

492
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 2: I thought there was a third, but I guess he

493
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 2: it wasn't a concussion. He just had to leave for

494
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 2: a little bit. The guy cannot stay healthy. And then

495
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 2: adding for reasons I think, I don't know why people

496
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 2: freaked out about this, but you guys remember Michael Thomas,

497
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 2: the former Saints receiver, a really good receiver with Sean

498
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 2: Payton way back. For whatever reason, he went on like

499
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: this Twitter tirade about olave not being a number one

500
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 2: and about how like you know, people thought he was

501
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: jealous when o'lave overtook him as the number one receiver.

502
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 2: And then there was Derek Carr stinks, and it was

503
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 2: it was weird. It was just a tirade on Twitter.

504
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 2: Maybe Michael Thomas has hung over. I have no clue.

505
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: It came out of left field. But here's my thing.

506
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 2: Who cares what Michael Thomas is? Oh, he's in the

507
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 2: Saints Ring of Honor. Whatever you're gonna call, it's okay.

508
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,640
Speaker 2: And I mean, if that's the level, Like, they asked

509
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 2: Derek Carr about this after the game, and I was like, guys, guys, dude,

510
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 2: Derek Carr is not the reason they lost. I didn't

511
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 2: think he was great, obviously, but it's not like he

512
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 2: was bad. He's not taking terrible sacks. I have him

513
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 2: for zero turnovers. Big bottom line. They just did not

514
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: get it done. You could call the play calling, you

515
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 2: call the coach, whatever you want. Hey, I mean, listen,

516
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: this is a team that led thirteen to seven twenty

517
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 2: two seventeen in the fourth and the defense just rolls

518
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 2: over for the touchdown drive. Like, I don't know, Rob,

519
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 2: what am I missing? I don't think that sounds a

520
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 2: good coach. I don't think Derek Carr is in a

521
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 2: top fifteen quarterbacks in the league, probably not even top twenty.

522
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 2: The Saints lost. I would get rid of Allen and

523
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 2: I know other guys out here in the media. Rodney

524
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 2: Harrison's out here saying, oh, you got to blow this up,

525
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 2: like bro, two and a half weeks ago, we were

526
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: saying that on the podcast. Where you been, Rodney Harrison?

527
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 2: You want to blow it up? Now? You think anybody's

528
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 2: paying big bucks for Kamara? Well you had to do

529
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 2: this a month ago to surprise everybody. Now everybodys gonna

530
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 2: be like, oh, well, Kamorrow, he's not coming back to

531
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: this team. I don't care about the new contract. Would

532
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 2: they have nothing here? They sure they can keep him up?

533
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 2: Why would they? And they'll start having to cut people

534
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 2: because they couldn't trade them at the deadline. Smart teams

535
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 2: do it before. The Patriots, by the way, have made

536
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 2: too already two trades, right jude On and uh Ouce.

537
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 2: So they're getting something for guys they were not going

538
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 2: to bring back Rob. I have zero faith in the

539
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 2: Saints to get this.

540
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, you shouldn't, because if you did, then you would

541
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 3: also realize that they just extended Alvin Kamara for two

542
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 3: more seasons. No, I don't know what they were thinking.

543
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,439
Speaker 3: So he was gonna cough get the buddy on that

544
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 3: bad exactly. Like I mean, Kamara is a great player,

545
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 3: and I think he's still he was great on Sunday.

546
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 3: But no, with your current situation and where you're going,

547
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 3: it would make sense to unload him at the headline.

548
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 3: Like you alluded to a couple of weeks ago, the

549
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 3: situation in New Orlans is so weird because I can't

550
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 3: tell who they hate more, Derek Carr, Dennis Allen because

551
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 3: it wasn't just Michael Thomas who was taking shots. You

552
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 3: had a defensive tackle, you know, putting out some tweets saying,

553
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 3: you know, maybe they put me at quarterback at least

554
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 3: it'll be interesting, or something like, oh damn, you know

555
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,239
Speaker 3: Cam Jordan, who's one of the classier guys, is you know,

556
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 3: saying apologies to Saints Nation that we lost, you know, excuse.

557
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 2: Me to oh I saw that? Where ye right?

558
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 3: And then you got Alvin Kamara, the aforementioned you know,

559
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,959
Speaker 3: they asked him, hey, how's the confidence level when your

560
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 3: team's lost this many in a row? And he says,

561
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 3: I think there's confidence. There just might not be confidence

562
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 3: in something else. So whatever, what does that mean? It

563
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 3: means that they hate the coach.

564
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 2: And there was a moment. I didn't actually see it, rob,

565
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 2: but other people were saying, like, if you really listen closely,

566
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 2: you can hear it. So when the Broncos played the Saints,

567
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 2: apparently you know after there's video of it, but like

568
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 2: Sean Payton and Kamara were hugging and they were, you know,

569
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 2: talking quietly or not quietly, but they were saying stuff

570
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: at each other's ears. And one report was Kamaras said

571
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: come get me, like he opened with that, opened with that.

572
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 2: The Payton whenever they played recently.

573
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, like it's just they're in a weird

574
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 3: situation because they are so pot committed with their roster.

575
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 3: They kept kicking the can, kicking the can, kicking the

576
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 3: can and always restrouctioning. Again, you can do that if

577
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 3: you want to keep your players, and that's fine, but

578
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 3: eventually the years, the bill's gonna come due, and when

579
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 3: you're paying guys like Taysom Hill big money and you know,

580
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: Marshawn Lattimore big money and Cam Jordan big money, and

581
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 3: you go from forty million over the cap to twenty

582
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 3: million under the cap. So you can sign Derek Carr Like,

583
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 3: eventually you kind of gotta either move on and trade

584
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 3: these guys or cut them or do something so that

585
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: you can have a number one new blood, but number

586
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 3: two like another crack at the apple. They are so

587
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 3: committed to this roster. I don't know what they can

588
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 3: do realistically that's gonna allow them to improve the short term.

589
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 3: They kind of just got to stick with what they have.

590
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 2: I'm of the belief I think it was last year

591
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: that like three or four teams that had massive dead

592
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 2: cap money, like I'm talking like top five in the

593
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 2: League of dead cat money made the playoffs. The earlier

594
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 2: you can get rid of this crap, the quicker you

595
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 2: can like instantly move on. By the way, how about

596
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 2: the Broncos, Like, I know, they got smashed by the

597
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 2: Ravens badly and that was not a competitive game. You know,

598
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: we call that here Ravens. We knew that was gonna happen.

599
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 2: But still there are positive signs this season, some for

600
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 2: the Broncos. Right, so they have all this dead cap

601
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 2: money last year because of the Russell Wilson, Well, they've

602
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 2: got massive dead cap money this year and then a

603
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 2: little less next year. Rob they at least know what

604
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 2: they're dealing with, what wait, what they need? So I

605
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 2: think the Broncos can be maybe I don't know if

606
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: a frisky in the NFL in the AFC next next year,

607
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 2: but I think they can be at least like, hey,

608
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 2: you know what, we're gonna fight for a playoff spot

609
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 2: next year. And and a lot of that's because they

610
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 2: quickly moved off Russ and found their new guy.

611
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's because even though I disagree with the

612
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 3: way they handle the Russell was the situation, I thought that

613
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 3: was kind of slimy on their part. Is they committed

614
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 3: to their coach and his vision and what he wanted

615
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 3: to do with their roster, and they executed it.

616
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 2: Like.

617
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 3: There is nothing about Dennis Allen that would lead you

618
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 3: to believe that he's the guy who can help reshape

619
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 3: what you want to do move him forward like he

620
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 3: is has been a below average to bad coach since

621
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 3: he's been a coach, both in Vegas and then in

622
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 3: New Orleans. He's a fine defensive coordinator, but that doesn't

623
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 3: mean you're a good coach. Like There's plenty of guys

624
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 3: who are great coordinators that just aren't good coaches, like

625
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 3: Cliff Kingsbury. We're seen right now in Washington. He can

626
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 3: call plays like as good as anybody, just don't ask

627
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 3: him to lead the team.

628
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 2: Well, maybe he gets a second chance that does things differently.

629
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 2: I love what I'm seeing from him.

630
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.

631
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you think he'll get calls by the way. Uh.

632
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 3: I think the way that things ended there in Arizona

633
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 3: might have soured because you know, the owners are like

634
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 3: they're a boys club, and the fact that he's always

635
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 3: gonna dip out and go to Sri Lanka for a

636
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 3: week with the one way ticket, like they're well, he's

637
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: not committed to ball. We can't, we can't you know

638
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 3: with it? Zo, I don't know, all right.

639
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 2: A couple quick ones that just last week I said

640
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 2: I had some issues with the benching of Anthony Richardson,

641
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: And yes, some people called me out. What do you

642
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: mean stinks?

643
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: No, shitty stinks.

644
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: But what's the point of Flacco, Matt Lioner, my guy

645
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 2: calling me out? And like, listen, I totally get it.

646
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson has not been good. But would you believe

647
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 2: this was the first game this season that the Colts

648
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: did not score an offensive touchdown? Would you believe the

649
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 2: Colts didn't get to the red zone. Ones didn't take

650
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 2: one snap from the red zone, not one. The Vikings

651
00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 2: totally dominated that game. And Joe Flacco, you know, it

652
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 2: made a couple of nice throws, but so what he

653
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 2: gave him a better chance to win. They were out

654
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 2: gained by four fifteen to two, twenty seven first down

655
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: twenty nine thirteen Vikings. They did what they wanted. This

656
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 2: game was not competitive. Now would Anthony Richardson have chained things?

657
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: I don't know, But Rob, the issue with this is

658
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 2: the longer we wait to find out is wasting time

659
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 2: we could be evaluating Anthony Richardson. I don't get it.

660
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 2: I think it's really short sighted. I'm very curious if

661
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 2: they change course. But then you're like messing with the

662
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 2: guy's head. It's just so disappointing to see if Anthony

663
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 2: richards on the bench. But I will say there was

664
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 2: a video of him at halftime. He like went near

665
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 2: the tunnel and waited for every guy to give him

666
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 2: a high five. He's like trying to pick up the

667
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 2: spirits of the guys. I love to see that. Any

668
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 2: quick thoughts Rob on Anthony.

669
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a weird situation because I think we

670
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 3: knew for years now that well, I think, okay, we

671
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 3: knew this season. Anthony Rigidson is clearly not good enough

672
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: to be a NFL starting quarterback right now. Is He's

673
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 3: just not He can't throw the and complete passes a

674
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 3: high clip, not even at a mediocre clip at this point.

675
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 3: But he's also one of those guys who just needs experience.

676
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 3: He only started thirteen games in college. He started ten

677
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,879
Speaker 3: games across two seasons of the NFL. The only way

678
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 3: you're gonna know if he can become anything is to

679
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 3: let him go through these growing pains and for them

680
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 3: to make this short sighted decision to start Flacco, because

681
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 3: the only reason you would go to Flacco is because

682
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 3: you think you can win the division and make the

683
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 3: playoff game. But we just saw these, you know, last

684
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 3: night on Sunday. I don't think the Colts are in

685
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 3: any kind of contention area to make the playoff or

686
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 3: to make a run out of any kind of story,

687
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 3: but just watch, like you saw what they look like

688
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 3: against the good team. And when you get to that

689
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: kind of everyone who makes the playoffs usually a good team.

690
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 3: So you either if you're gonna draft the guy thegnscragon

691
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 3: who's super raw is based solely on potential. Then you

692
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 3: got to be willing to live with the growing pains

693
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 3: for a year or two. And the fact that they

694
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 3: cut the cord that quickly I thought was just a

695
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 3: terrible decision.

696
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 2: Now I know I just talked about cutting the court

697
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 2: too early. I believe I take a flyer on one

698
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 2: of these two quarterbacks getting bench this week. So let's

699
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 2: start with Seattle Geno Smith. Gino Smith lost the game

700
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 2: against the Rams for Seattle. He threw two red zone interceptions,

701
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 2: including one in the end zone that was worse than

702
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 2: the one he threw. I think it was against Buffalo

703
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: one hundred and three yards run back the other way.

704
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 2: Seattle ends up losing. Gino Smith is killing Seattle with

705
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 2: ball security, I mean interceptions, fumbles, He's not he's not delivering,

706
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 2: and I think he's actually holding this team back. So

707
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be shocked if we hear the backup is

708
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 2: getting first team reps in practice. The other one is

709
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 2: Danny Dimes in New York. An unbelievable first half stat.

710
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 2: I put this on Instagram. It's just unfathomable that a

711
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: quarterback could do this in a half. Daniel Jones four

712
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 2: of six, zero passing yards, one touchdown. That was his

713
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: first half. Okay, why did he only throw six times?

714
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 2: Why did Malik Neighbors, who's on my fantasy team have

715
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 2: zero targets in the first half? Because Brian Dabele doesn't

716
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 2: trust his quarterback. He just doesn't. He's gonna say, the

717
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 2: only path we have here is giving it to this

718
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,320
Speaker 2: kid Tracy, who runs hard, and we don't trust you,

719
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, we don't. The only way you're throwing is

720
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 2: if we have to because we're losing big. And then

721
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 2: he had to in the second half, but he just

722
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,760
Speaker 2: refused to let his guy throw the ball. And I

723
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 2: am I know that the owner gave him in the

724
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 2: GM the vote of approval recently. I gotta be honest.

725
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 2: If Dabill really believes he's got his job locked up,

726
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 2: he should just go ahead and bench Daniel Jones. Just

727
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 2: roll with Drew Lock. He ain't winning the games anyway, right.

728
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: I mean they played Washington twice the season, Washington, a

729
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 2: team with a new OC, a new quarterback, a new

730
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 2: head coach, a new owner. They punted twice. This offense

731
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 2: just rolled through them. I mean the Giants spent money

732
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 2: on defense or built around I. I het Derek Lawrence

733
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 2: is an awesome talent. Do you put him on the block?

734
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,240
Speaker 2: Can you get I don't know, a late first second?

735
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 2: You get a second? Derek Dixon Lauryn Corn are the

736
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: best defensive defensive lineman in the league. He's in the

737
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: Chris Jones Quinn Williams category. So I would not be

738
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 2: shocked if Gino Smith or Danny Dimes got benched this week.

739
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 2: Rob either one, you think I have a chance or

740
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 2: am I just going a little overboard.

741
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 3: I can definitely see Daniel Jones getting benched because I

742
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 3: think it was clear if you watch that Hard Knocks

743
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 3: that they weren't sold on him at all, like not

744
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 3: even a little bit, Like they knew that at best

745
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 3: he was a band aid quarterback. And you know, maybe

746
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 3: they make a run at eight and nine on the

747
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 3: season and they can, you know, feel good about themselves

748
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 3: before they draft them. When late in the draft he's

749
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 3: clearly not good and they know that, and if they're

750
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,760
Speaker 3: committed to day ball, then they let him lose draft

751
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 3: the quarterback and then you know it is what it is.

752
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 3: The Gino Smith thing is weird because entering weaknin he

753
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: was leading the NFL in passing like by a lot,

754
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 3: you know, and it was him and Baker Mayfield yards. Yeah,

755
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 3: two hundred and seventy five pass yards again, you know,

756
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 3: entering Sunday. So it's not like he's been terrible, but

757
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 3: he also hasn't like those numbers are kind of fugazy

758
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 3: a little bit. Yeah, Like you know, because he in

759
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,399
Speaker 3: addition to throwing for two hundred and seventy five yards

760
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 3: a game, he only has eight touchdown seven picks, So

761
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 3: you know there was something missing obviously. I think with Seattle,

762
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 3: I don't think that they believe that they're that far

763
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 3: away considering what the rest of the division is like.

764
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 3: If you just you look at points four, Seattle is

765
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 3: the highest scoring offense in that division. If they can

766
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 3: get a couple of timely defensive plays, maybe they are

767
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 3: atop the division right now entering Week ten and there's

768
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,919
Speaker 3: still only a game back. I don't see them making

769
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,479
Speaker 3: a move, but definitely New York for sure.

770
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 2: It's weird. These are the quarterbacks and coaches that's YEA

771
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 2: has lost to McVeigh and Stafford mc dermott and Josh

772
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: Allen Shanahanan Purty. Somehow they lost to Daniel Jones in

773
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 2: a brutal spot and then Jared Goff and Dan Campbell.

774
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 2: So those are like, actually not bad losses. Outside the Giants,

775
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 2: maybe they do have a chance. And I was being

776
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 2: too hard on Geno. There's just so much good stuff. Listen.

777
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 2: I don't want to absolutely kill Nick Sirianni, but oh

778
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 2: my gosh, guys, I didn't. I wrote down so many

779
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 2: of it and I don't want to read it because

780
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 2: it's like, I'm not going to give play by play here,

781
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 2: But like Sirianni is just everybody's like Jay stop through

782
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 2: six and two just because they didn't cover the spread.

783
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 2: Don't be upset, no, no, A. I can be upset

784
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 2: about that, but it's less about the result and it's

785
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 2: more about the process. Snick Sirianni seems to think the

786
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 2: Brotherly Shove is as effective as it was last year.

787
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 2: It is clearly not. Without Jason Kelson, it is not effective.

788
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 2: It got stuffed twice, okay against the Jacks. Everybody knows

789
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 2: it's coming, and you don't have the same personnel, even

790
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 2: though you have a better running back in Barkley who's

791
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 2: carrying this team. The real problem with Siriani is he thinks,

792
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 2: well we can run that play it's not working, and

793
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 2: then he just thinks I can get a two point conversion.

794
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 2: I don't even think he's doing like actual math on

795
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 2: the sideline. And he left at least conservatively eight points

796
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 2: on the board in a game. Is team nearly lost?

797
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 2: And I know you're saying, but they won. It's the process.

798
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 2: If you want to have build something long term, it's

799
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 2: about the process. It's less about oh they won this game.

800
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 2: Where they lost this game? When you look at his

801
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 2: decision making end of the half, you can go up

802
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 2: seventeen to nothing, a three score game. But then they

803
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 2: get a penalty and they're like, oh, well just do

804
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 2: the touch push and they get denied. So they're up

805
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 2: sixteen nothing, which is only a two game. So then

806
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 2: Hurt scores in the third quarter twenty two nothing Eagles,

807
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 2: Well we got to now go for the two to

808
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 2: go up twenty four nothing. That also failed. Okay, I

809
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 2: guess I could. I mean, whether you're up twenty two,

810
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 2: twenty three, or twenty four, it's it's still a three

811
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 2: score game with three touchdowns. So I don't. He's just

812
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 2: chasing points at this point, so of course they're dominating

813
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 2: the Jaguars and it's twenty two nothing and then you know,

814
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:35,240
Speaker 2: finally Trevor Lawrence breaks through big drive. Like thirty seconds later,

815
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 2: Sequon Barkley is tripped on his way down fumbles. Now

816
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 2: he was clearly touched. I think they blew the call.

817
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 2: And Jacksonville, by the way, makes both two point conversions.

818
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 2: So in the span of I don't know, three minutes,

819
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 2: the Eagles go up from three scores twenty two to

820
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 2: six to now up twenty two to sixteen, not even

821
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: up a touchdown. If Sirianni had simply kicked extra points

822
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 2: twenty four to sixteen, you're up a touchdown or two.

823
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 2: So fine, we go to the fourth quarter, they score

824
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 2: a touchdown and up twelve. Syriann's like up up card says,

825
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 2: we gotta go, we gotta go for two, twenty eight

826
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 2: to sixteen. They failed again on the three point on

827
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,959
Speaker 2: the two point conversion, so of course the Jaguars score,

828
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 2: and then luckily Trevor Lawrence throw a bad interception in

829
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 2: the end zone and the Eagles hold on. They win

830
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 2: but don't cover. But there's no Eagle fan that left

831
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,720
Speaker 2: that stadium really confident. Yes, they dominated the box score,

832
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 2: they dominated yardage four point forty seven to two point fifteen.

833
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 2: I mean it was a this is another bloodbath, and

834
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 2: this is the most brutal cover because they so dominated

835
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 2: this game. But if you're an Eagle fan, you're Rob.

836
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 2: You're walking out of there saying, shit, man, we're never

837
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 2: getting anyone with Sirianni. We're just not. We're now. I

838
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 2: trust dan Quinn right now more as the head coach

839
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: than I do Sirianni. And that's that Washington Philly battle.

840
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 2: That's gonna be good. And if Sirianni gets exposed, Rob,

841
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you, I think you run him off. Now.

842
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 2: I don't remember exactly what happened to Milwaukee with Adrian

843
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 2: Griffin and the Bucks. I think he couldn't get along

844
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 2: with Dame and they fired him at thirty and thirteen.

845
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 2: Then they replaced him with Doc Rivers, which was just

846
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 2: a total disaster of a move. But they saw the

847
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 2: new coach mucking up the process. Despite having all these

848
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 2: stars like Bubba, they're winning. They got the stars, but

849
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 2: the process is messy. Eagles are winning, Rob, they got

850
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 2: the stars, but the process is messy.

851
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,879
Speaker 3: Jason, You're so right, you couldn't turn left right now,

852
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 3: Like this might have been the most accurate statement you've

853
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 3: made in the history of this podcast. Nick Sirianni is

854
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 3: the fully formed, best case scenario version of Antonio Pierce.

855
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 3: His entire coaching style is vibes. Everything I do is

856
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,359
Speaker 3: based on the vibes, how I make you feel, how

857
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:04,879
Speaker 3: I'm feeling. It's never about analytics, it's never about x's

858
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 3: and o's. He doesn't understand what you can tell that

859
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 3: what he's doing. He's just flying by the seat of

860
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 3: his pants because there's no rhyme or reason to what

861
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,759
Speaker 3: he's doing. Like say what you want about a guy

862
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 3: like Brandon Staley. Okay, in with the Charge a few

863
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 3: years ago, I thought he was a terrible coach because

864
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 3: he was always going forward in these terrible situations. But

865
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 3: with him, he was almost following it to a fault.

866
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 3: The numbers say this, so I'm gonna follow the numbers.

867
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 3: But at least you can say he has a plan.

868
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,799
Speaker 3: Nick Sirianni doesn't do that. Nick Sirianni is always just

869
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 3: you know, I feel this way. It's all emotional it's

870
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 3: all off. Whatever the vibes are telling me in the

871
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 3: game drives to drive quarter to quarter. See, you know,

872
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 3: game to game, and the only reason why he's still

873
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 3: in a position that he's in is because that roster

874
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 3: is so unbelievably loaded. You can have shitty vibes and

875
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 3: start off ten to one last season. You can have

876
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,919
Speaker 3: bad vibes this season where your quarterback says a month

877
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 3: into the year, we don't know what her identity is,

878
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 3: and still roll into the second half of the year. Basically,

879
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 3: you know, neck and neck for the division because your

880
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 3: GM is so good at identifying and keeping talent that

881
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter what the coach is doing because you

882
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,240
Speaker 3: have better players than the guys you're going against ninety

883
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 3: percent of the time. Nick sirianni is, I'm not gonna

884
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 3: say he's terrible, because we've seen some really terrible coaching

885
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,719
Speaker 3: shout out to Antonio Peers. But he's just not good.

886
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 3: And you can tell, and I think even the most

887
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 3: diehard Eagles fan can tell that if you had a

888
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 3: coach with a plan, a coach with some structure, with

889
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 3: some discipline. This is not just a what are they

890
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 3: what six and two? You know six, this might be

891
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 3: a no, and it might be. You know, they're covering

892
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 3: all these games. If you're gonna use a gambling reference,

893
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 3: they're leaving so much meat on the bone it's disgusting.

894
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 2: That's a job Belichick would slide right into.

895
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

902
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Kansas City Monday Night football. Not very excited

903
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 2: for this match. I probably should go to bed early,

904
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 2: just so I can, you know, rest up for the election. No,

905
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. It's probably not happening, but I will

906
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 2: say this. College basketball also starts this week, so a

907
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,479
Speaker 2: lot of grinding to do on the college hoops front.

908
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 2: I will tinker with the idea of posting some of

909
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 2: the bets on Instagram stories because I know you guys

910
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 2: love college basketball and I one of the best. I

911
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 2: think this was my overall best gambling end of the

912
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 2: football season. College and pro so I'm just feeling good.

913
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 2: I don't want to give back too many profits, but

914
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,959
Speaker 2: I will go Kansas City minus nine. Yes, Chalky, get

915
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 2: Chalky with it in prime time. Unless Rob, this is

916
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 2: one of your fade picks.

917
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 3: You know, don't listen to me, Okay, because I went

918
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 3: two and three again on Sunday, so I am with

919
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,879
Speaker 3: a losing record on the season. So I guess maybe

920
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 3: if you are fading me, you are making money. So

921
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 3: with that in mind, maybe I will give an honest

922
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 3: go of it and someone will just fade me and

923
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 3: they'll be profitable. I wasn't feeling the spread. The nine

924
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 3: was such a big number to me, and I don't

925
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,399
Speaker 3: think the Chiefs are that good. As you've talked about

926
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 3: on this podcast for weeks. The number that I'm most

927
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,399
Speaker 3: drawn to is the total forty five and a half.

928
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 3: That's what I see at the shops that I'm looking

929
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 3: at right now. I'm taking the ender of forty five

930
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 3: and a half. I think the Chiefs are gonna suffocate

931
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,240
Speaker 3: Tampa Bay. You know, them being down Godwin and Evans

932
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 3: is a big deal. I don't think you're gonna be

933
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 3: able to check down Charlie. Your way with Bucky Irving

934
00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 3: and Rashad White against that defense. So I'm not touching

935
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 3: the nine, but give me the under forty five and

936
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 3: a half.

937
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 2: Interesting, so that that would be reminiscent of the Saints game,

938
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 2: which was ugly as hell, and they just choked them

939
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 2: out a couple of big plays and then just slow

940
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 2: their slow yer role to an easy win.

941
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, something like that. I mean, that's kind of what

942
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 3: they've been doing all season, right, So it wouldn't be out

943
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:19,320
Speaker 3: of the norm for that.

944
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 2: So the total was forty three and a half and

945
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 2: the Saints atlanted on thirty nine, and that was with

946
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,799
Speaker 2: a ton of points in the fourth. So all right,

947
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 2: good luck to anybody who does wager. And you know,

948
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 2: there's a lot that we didn't get to talk about.

949
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,359
Speaker 2: I mean, the Joel Embiid incident with a reporter over

950
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 2: the weekend. I mean there's other NFL stuff. I college football, Like, listen, folks,

951
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,720
Speaker 2: this Ohio State team is a machine. I'm so happy

952
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 2: for them us. He's got problems, we got a lot

953
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,360
Speaker 2: to cover. It's gonna be a great week. Talk to
