WEBVTT - HOUR 3- Albert Breer Oct 07, 2020 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.160 Sports Radio. Welcome to the program final hour on this Wednesday, 0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:09.240 Dan and The Dane's Dan Patrick Show. What have we 0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:11.959 learned so far? We learned that Charles Barkley lost one 0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:15.000 hundred thousand dollars on the Falcons against the Patriots and 0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:19.320 the Super Bowl. We learned that Lane Kiffin told us 0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:23.520 to take the money line with Old Miss facing Alabama. 0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:26.280 And we're going to find out if there is a 0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:29.520 contingency plan for the Titans as we move forward, will 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:31.720 they be able to play their game with Buffalo coming 0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:35.159 up this weekend. The NFL, by the way, is investigating 0:00:35.479 --> 0:00:40.920 the Titans. Did they have unauthorized team workouts this past week? 0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:43.000 So a few things to get to. We'll talk to 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:47.680 Albert Breer, the senior NFL reporter for MMQB. He'll join us. 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:51.360 Coming up here momentarily mclovin, we're gonna change the poll 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.120 question here. By the way, you can get in touch 0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:55.440 with the program. You can dials upage seven seven three 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:58.040 DP show email address DP at Dan Patrick dot com, 0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:01.880 twitterheadle a DP show. Good morning to Peacock, our TV partner, 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:04.440 and we're up to three hundred and seventy five cities 0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:08.000 around America who welcome us in every morning. Yes, mclovin, 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:12.000 I just put up for hour three which the undefeated 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:13.959 or one lass teams? Would you not want to play 0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.120 if you were the number one pick? Next year we 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:19.839 have a runaway winner. The choices were the Giants, Falcons, Jets, 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.040 the Jaguars, and the Washington football team. There's one team, 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:27.080 dry guess the Jets. Yes, seventy percent Jets. The next 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:30.160 closest is the Washington football team. The Lakers beat the 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:32.479 Heat one O two ninety six, up three games to one. 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.319 Lebron with the twenty eight points, including eleven in the 0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:39.479 final nine minutes, twelve rebounds and eight assists, and looks 0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.160 like he is going to be your finals MVP entering 0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:46.200 Game five on Friday. The aforementioned Albert Breer kind enough 0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.840 to join us on short notice. But this is all 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:51.919 happening in real time. We showed up this morning, Albert, 0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:53.600 and all of a sudden, there was a report another 0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:56.840 Titans players tested positive. They were supposed to go back 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.920 to the facility today. They got a game against Buffalo 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:04.440 this weekend. So where do things stand? I mean, with 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.280 a lot of uncertainty. I think it's the best way 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:08.200 to say it. You know, they're gonna have to wait 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:09.920 at least two days at least, that's what it looks 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:12.160 like to reopen their facility or at least attempt to 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:15.440 reopen their facility again, which would mean you be entering 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:17.520 the facility on Friday. Now, I think about this, Dan, 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.040 do you think Mike Rabel after two weeks off is 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.240 going to have his players going full go into practice, 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:26.320 Probably not right on Friday, and then you're into Saturday, 0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:28.880 and that's just a day for a walk through, so 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.760 you potentially could be putting Titans players out there. And 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.960 this is if everything goes okay over the next couple 0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:37.440 of days, and we're not sure about that, out there 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:40.720 against the Buffalo Bills in a situation where they haven't 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:44.160 practiced in two weeks, and so there's players safety issues 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:47.240 involved with this now, and there's you know, I mean, 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:51.359 obviously like the competitive equity issue too, which I think 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.640 goes out the window with the with the Titans. But 0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:56.560 you think about like this from the rest of the 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.639 league standpoint, I mean, consider this. You know, the part 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.400 of the in the Chiefs Patriots game was held on 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.400 Monday and not on Tuesday, was because the Chiefs are 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.160 pot playing the following Thursday, so they got to play 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.919 three games in ten days now, and that Thursday night 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.000 opponent for them that's the Buffalo Bills. And if the 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:15.600 Titans Bills game gets kept called off now, the Bills 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:17.720 would be going into that game on eleven days rest, 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.840 playing against the Chiefs team that had played was playing 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:23.000 for a third time in ten days, and that game 0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.040 could wind up being for the number one seed in 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.799 the AFC. So I think that's just like an illustration 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.400 of how messy things are and how you know, the 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.359 league's got a real challenge on its hands right now 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.480 on tangling all of this. But I'm trying to understand 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.880 that though, because let's say the Titans game is postponed 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:41.440 this weekend, so now you have to make up two weeks, 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:43.400 and can you tack it on at the end of 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:45.440 the season where the Titans are going to be playing 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:50.240 standalone games against Pittsburgh and Buffalo, right which is not 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.000 going to be fair to Pittsburgh and Buffalo and some 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:55.960 of these other teams here, So could we I don't 0:03:55.960 --> 0:04:00.000 know if there's a contingency plan of winning percentage as 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:03.800 posed too, sort of like what we had in baseball. Well, 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.000 I mean, I think you know, start here, we knew 0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:08.080 there were gonna be competitive inequities, right like, and that 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.360 was something that sort of came up in July and 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.720 August when everything was okay. Now, I think the league 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:15.960 tried to message that to some degree, you know that 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.040 there was going to be competitive balance problems that we're 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:22.159 going to be created by this. They anticipated that, you know. 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:24.400 That said, I think the question with the Titans now 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.880 becomes how much at fault were they? And there are 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.000 a lot of rumors out there about stuff that was 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.279 happening in Tennessee over the last couple of weeks, and 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.640 the league's investigation has been going on there for five 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:37.159 days now. And if they are at fault, do you 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.880 postpone the Bills game or does that become a forfeit? 0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:42.360 So I think that that's going to be a real, 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.640 very real question over the next couple of days, where 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:47.600 you know, you could wind up seeing that Titans game 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:50.400 against Buffalo wind up being a forfeit and the Titans 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.960 having to take a loss for it. And as for 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.080 where they are going forward, I mean, you mentioned it 0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:57.359 like there's no more you know, there's no more margin 0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:59.279 for error with the Titans and the Steelers because they've 0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:01.880 had their bye week. Well over the next two months, 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:04.000 you're gonna start to see that come off the table 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.000 for everybody. The Packers and lines are on a bye 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:07.560 this week, So after you get out of this week, 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.640 just for natural reasons, you're gonna have no more margin 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:13.080 fair with the Packers and lines. And so, I mean, 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:15.240 one answer that I think is obvious to everybody is 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:16.960 just to create a Week eighteen at the end of 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.400 the season, cancel the Pro Bowl, and have them play 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:22.440 the playoffs on four consecutive weekends in January and February. 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.520 I think that that's something that could be on the horizon, 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:29.320 you know, Like you said, that creates some competitive balance issues, 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.679 but I think everybody knew going into this year, playing 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:33.760 through COVID that those sorts of issues were going to 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:38.200 be there. Stefan Gilmore is tested positive. Now. They had 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.600 two different planes that went to Kansas City and then 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.800 came back correct, right, those who came in contact with 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:48.200 Cam Newton and those who didn't. Right. So part of 0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:51.760 the reason why the Patriots trip to Kansas City was 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.680 delayed was because you know, they were those tracking device 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:56.960 I'm shaer familiar with this, Dan. They were you know, 0:05:57.000 --> 0:05:59.719 the wrist bands and the lanyards that kind of track 0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:02.800 who they're close to, and so all that data. When 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:06.400 somebody tests positive, the league evaluates that data. And you 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:08.880 know what I was told was that the Cam Newton's 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:12.640 data was abnormally high, like over twenty people had close 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:15.960 contacts with Cam Newton. So they pushed the trip back, 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:19.039 and then the Patriots make the decision to separate the 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.600 guys who had had close contact with Cam Newton from 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:23.920 those who had not. So all of those guys get 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:25.640 on one plane, the rest of the team gets on 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.120 another plane. They all fly to Kansas City, fly back 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:31.159 in the same fashion. And then Steph Gilmour's tests comes 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:33.760 up positive Tuesday going into Wednesday, and what do you know, 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.559 Steph gilmore was one of the more than twenty close 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:39.520 contacts of Cam Newton. So that, of course, you know, 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.159 calls the question what do you do with the other 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:43.560 guys now who were close contacts with Cam Newton? How 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:45.800 do you handle them going forward? And then of course 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.160 I think a bigger question is if you do going 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.000 forward have guys test positive on say a Friday or Saturday, 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.600 do you take all of their close contacts off the 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.479 trip as well. It's just it's sort of like this 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:58.919 Pandora's box has now been opened as a result of this. 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:02.120 What mount punish for teams? We talked about a forfeit, 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.719 but you know there's heavy fines if the coachesn't wearing 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:08.520 a mask. But are they talking about taking away draft picks? 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:10.880 How serious does this get? Yeah, I mean this has 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.160 been pretty black and white all week. You know, they 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.080 said around a conference call, it was an a league 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.480 memo that went out to the head coaches and the 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.360 general managers that there were gonna be three levels of 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:22.960 punishment here. They didn't give specifics on what would merit 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:26.160 each level of punishment, but they said fines, draft picks, 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:29.320 and game forfeitures. And so you know, certainly I think 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.440 that you know that that's something you could see coming 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:33.440 to play with the Titan situation based on some of 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:36.720 the stuff that's floating out flowing around out there on 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.480 what might have happened over the course of the last 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.720 week and a half in Nashville. And then you have 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:44.920 the Saints they are relocating to Indianapolis for a Monday 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:47.520 night game against the Chargers that they want to play 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.800 in Indianapolis, and then, oh, by the way, Hurricane Delta 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:57.800 is coming towards New Orleans. It's like a game of clue, 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:02.880 like you know, somebody with the candlestick in the butler's 0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.840 pantry or whatever. It is, Like, when did they just 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:09.480 sign on if they can play this game in Indianapolis 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:13.040 on Monday night against the Chargers. Yeah, I mean, I 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:15.200 you know, it's it's another one of those things where 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.120 it's just like and what we've been through this before, 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.560 where whether it has delayed games. I think the Dolphins 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.880 were in one of these situations a few years back. Obviously, 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.480 the Texans dealt with this three four years ago with 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.440 Hurricane Harvey, and the Saints have obviously been in these 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.280 sorts of situations in the past. So it is separate 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:37.000 from the COVID thing, but you know, in certain ways 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.240 it's not because now you know you're going to be 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.680 putting all these guys in a plane and plane and 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:46.000 in close proximity to one another over a longer period 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.280 of time. And so I think what's sort of interesting 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:50.080 about it, Dan, is how this could sort of create 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:53.360 a natural bubble for the Saints where almost inadvertently, the 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:55.280 league might get a test case here of what it 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:57.640 might look like if they did want to create thirty 0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.880 two bubbles with teams going into hotels like they'd be 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.920 and during like training camp or something like that. That 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:07.160 was a quick pull by Ron Rivera with Dwayne Haskins, 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.360 and now Kyle Ellen gets the start here? Is there 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:11.640 is there anything else to this? Because I looked at 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:15.320 haskins numbers are better than Daniel Jones, and he's still 0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:19.000 the starter with the Giants, right, Like, why are they 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:22.120 making this move now with Haskins and bringing in Kyle Ellen? Yeah? 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.880 I think there are really two things you know that 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:26.880 I've heard over the last couple of days. Number One, 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:30.080 you know, I don't think that they feel like Haskins 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.240 is running the offense at the level they want a run. 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.439 And you know, so really from that standpoints about the 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:37.440 other ten guys in the huddle, and that's the way 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.920 that coaches look at these things. Is he holding back 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:42.439 Terry McLaurin, Is he holding back Antonio Gibson? Is he 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:44.760 holding back the other people that he's playing with? And 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:48.079 I think the coaches there felt like the best thing 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.080 for the other ten guys in the huddle right now 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:52.400 would be tab a guy out there who's seeing the 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.800 field a little bit better, who's going into his progressions 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:57.040 a little bit deeper. And then the second piece of 0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.000 it is, you know, related to that, which is just 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:00.840 that they don't feel like since it has come along 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.040 quick enough And so I think it's pretty telling that 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:04.760 they knock him down to third on the depth chart, 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:07.439 which means he probably won't dress for the game against 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:09.760 the Rams, Like they really feel like they got to 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:11.679 sit him down for a little bit and just kind 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.160 of reset him. I think that tells you all you 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:15.760 need to know about where they feel he is in 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:19.360 his development. There's all this demo Sweeney talk because there's 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:22.520 coaching vacancies and you know, would he go to the Texans? 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.880 And I was told no, he wouldn't go to the Texans, 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.160 But then it was brought up to me yesterday, what 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.520 if the Falcon's job is open and they have the 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.200 number one pick on the drive? Like, do you see 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.040 a scenario where Dabo Sweeney would actually leave Clemson to 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:38.440 coach in the NFL? So you know, I like, I 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.320 know that there's interest in him, and I know he's 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.720 been on lists, and that's you know, how all these 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:46.120 things start. You know, whether or not he would actually 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:49.160 do it, I don't know. I don't know him nearly 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.240 well enough to be able to say one way or 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:52.480 the other. But I do think there's going to be 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:55.640 opportunity out there for him. And what's so interesting about 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:58.280 this and college coaches know this. I mean, if Dabo 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:00.800 asked Nick Saban, what would Nick Saban say about his 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:04.280 experience with the Dolphins? Be get yourself a quarterback, because 0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:07.599 that's what I didn't do in Miami. And so you know, 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:09.720 if Dabbo has it in his head, at some point, 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:11.880 I want to take my shot in the NFL who 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:13.640 his quarterback is going to be as a big part 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:17.240 of that, and you know who which quarterbacks does he 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:19.199 have the best background on. He has the best background 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.840 under Shaun Watson. He has the best background on Trevor Lawrence. 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:25.640 And so if Sayah Jacksonville or in Atlanta wound up 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:27.680 with the number one overall pick and Dabbo had it 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:29.240 in the back of his head, I got to take 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.200 my shot at some point at doing this. I want 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:33.760 to try the NFL. You know, he would want to 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:35.760 take it with a guy he trusted the most important 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:37.800 position on the field. And so I think going to 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.080 a team, you know, with the number one overall pick 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.560 would you know, certainly be enticing for him. And I 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:44.320 do think the one thing to keep an eye on 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:47.120 with the Houston situation there dan a lot of people 0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:48.760 don't know this, A lot of people appointed to Jack 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:52.960 Easterby's relationships in New England. I'm told that Jack Easterby 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:56.360 is very very close with Clemson coach Dabo Swinny. And 0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.800 so you know, to me, like the idea there that 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.840 like maybe Jack Easterby could sort of plant the seed 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:06.880 and start you see the president he's like basically he's 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.400 the EVP of football operations, which is amazing because he's 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.559 gone from team chaplain in Kansas City, the character coach 0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:14.960 in New England. Wait wait, wait, now he's basically running 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:18.760 the show. Wait he was chaplain. He was a chaplain yep, 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:22.160 a chaplain with the Chiefs and he wound up. In fact, 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.360 the reason I think about this like he was a 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:27.240 chaplain in the Chiefs when the Javan Belcher tragedy happened 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.200 and Scott Pioli was the GM. He wound up in 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:34.360 New England because Scott Pioli said said to Bill Belichick, 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.720 there's the best guy to handle this, Aaron Hernandez. Situation 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:39.280 for you is right here is Jack Easterby. He rose 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:40.880 through the ranks in New England, and then he winds 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:44.400 up in Houston with Bill O'Brien, and now with O'Brien fired, 0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:47.439 he's the top ranking football official in Houston. And again 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.000 I'm told that he is a very close relationship with Dabo. 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:53.320 And so I mean the idea that maybe Jack Easterby 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.280 could sell Dabbo on the idea, I'm gonna let you 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:57.360 run the football operation here and you get to come 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:01.319 work with Deshaun. Like I like again, Like I'm not, 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:03.520 I'm not. I'm not refuting what you're trying to say 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.160 about him not going there. But I would think that 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:08.600 one of Jack's first phone calls would probably be to Dabbo, 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:10.720 either to try to get him to go there or 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:13.920 to get advice on what he should do. Great stuff, Albert, 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:16.719 We appreciate your time, thanks for joining us. Awesome Thanks. Dan. 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:21.760 That's Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter and he works for MMQB. 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:25.600 You know it's interesting, you know where you connect the 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:27.800 dots when you see who the next coach could be. 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:32.000 And you know, I was told that this guy in 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:36.240 Houston is you know, good friends with Josh McDaniels in 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:39.120 New England, and would you bring him in like I 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.440 would place the call to Dabo Sweeney and I go 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:44.600 back to my source who said Dabbo is not the 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:48.920 x as and O's guy. He's a great recruiter. Now 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:52.160 you're not recruiting in the NFL. You got to be 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:55.760 an x as and O's guy, or you're a cheerleader 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:58.280 of sorts and you truly touch, you know, trust your 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:02.280 offensive and defensive court naters there. But you know place 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.600 to call him, you know, do a drive by, see 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:08.120 if he's interested. But I don't know, I don't know. 0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:12.000 It feels like they'll be, uh, somebody with NFL experience 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:16.040 that they would be bringing in Ko in Georgia joining us. Hey, 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:24.280 Ko and eight pounds of twisted steal? All right, all right? 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:28.360 So yab, we have played at Alabama and he probably 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:32.960 would go coach there one day, whether and just like 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:36.120 that we lost Ko. I beg, I've had cell phone 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:38.920 there dp. I think we lost him. I was talking 0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:41.760 about Washington starting quarterbacks. The Browns have had more starting 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.640 quarterbacks since nineteen ninety three. What was that? Thirty five 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:48.520 the fewest, in case you're wondering. Since nineteen ninety three, 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:52.680 the Green Bay Packers have had six different starting quarterbacks, 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:56.520 Patriots have nine different starting quarterbacks, and the New York 0:14:56.840 --> 0:15:02.680 Football Giants with ten the NFL average since nineteen ninety three. 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:06.920 Twenty one. Stat of the Day, Sat of the day. 0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:10.880 That beast stat of the day. Stat of the day 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:17.080 here comes that? What stat of the day. Also, I 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:20.280 was talking about Clemson in Miami this weekend. Had that 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:23.800 been in Miami, then I could see a surprise. But 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.120 Miami will be an underdog at Clemson, and it looks 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:30.920 like they're gonna be a fifteen point underdog against the 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.560 number one ranked Tigers. Clemson has beaten Miami by a 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:38.080 combined score of ninety six to three in the last 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:43.720 two games. But Miami's undefeated this year. They got a 0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:48.280 good quarterback. Yeah, PAULI talking a lot of gambling for 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.560 a guy to them. Bet you're right, I know a 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:55.240 lot of gambling you like in Miami. Undervalued parlay it. 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:59.000 I'll parlay it at full miss. No no, no, no, 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:02.360 no no, I'm doing straight money line. Man, there you go. 0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.200 That's what that's a man's job. Right there. You're like 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.760 if there was say, like a big tray of food 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:10.920 on top of a table, and you can just see 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:13.560 a dog sort of licking its chops and you're like, man, 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:15.720 this dog's gonna take a bite of that food. That's 0:16:15.800 --> 0:16:18.320 kind of you and gambling right now. So I'm like 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:22.400 a dog. I'm like Penny, our resident dog here. Yeah, 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:26.560 just sort of like just waiting, just waiting to make 0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:31.840 a mistake.

But I love listening to guitar, 0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:16.880 and Eddie van Halen played it differently than anybody. It's 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:19.640 hard to find your own sound in rock and roll 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:21.879 when it comes to guitar playing, because it feels like 0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:25.360 we've been there, done that. But Eddie had that ability 0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:28.560 to find a different sound. He could make a guitar 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:32.639 sound like a violin, and he did it. You know, 0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:35.840 PAULI was saying, it's like baroque, like you're you're saying, 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:38.359 he's doing that on a guitar, on the neck of 0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:40.480 a guitar, and you're going, he's making it sound like 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:43.240 a violin. Not that that means, boy, he's the greatest 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:45.640 guitar player of all time. I'm just saying, as an 0:18:45.640 --> 0:18:50.160 innovator at somebody who created, somebody did something different and 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:53.119 that the music was based off his guitar. And you 0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:56.720 listen for that guitar, that's quite an impact. Yeah see. 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:59.439 And it's like sometimes you hear the riffs that he 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:01.800 wrote and you're like, how did he even start writing this? 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:04.679 Like where did this even come from? How? And he 0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:07.399 doesn't know how to read music. He didn't, he didn't 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:10.280 bother with that, but he knew everything about the guitar, 0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:14.520 how to make him, deconstruct him, how to get a 0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:17.119 sound out of it. But man van Halen was about 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:19.200 that guitar. Yeah, Pa, I was watching that clip of 0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:22.240 Eddie van Halen play Eruption and concert from like maybe 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:25.679 when Sammy Hagar started so mid nineties. He's in a 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:28.840 full sweat. I mean, he is just dripping, he's drinking water. 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.520 He whips his hair back and there's water everywhere, and 0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:33.680 he picks up this electric guitar. I'm like, don't pick 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.280 that up, dude, because it's just he's in a full sweat. 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:38.720 I guess it's safe and everything, but he's playing it 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:41.800 and joking and laughing, and he's thrown He would he'd 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:43.840
