And one of the things that Colin has 19 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: always said and frankly taught me when I was just 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: a young whipper snapper we got to ESPN at the 21 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: exact same time, was don't talk about what you want 22 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: to talk about, talk about what the most people want 23 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: to hear about. So look, I'll start with the NFL. 24 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: Last night was a complete beat down. One team is 25 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: trying to turn around their season, the other one seems 26 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: dead the water. And the one team is trying to 27 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,639 Speaker 1: turn around their season came in with the inferior record. 28 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson Ravens, come in not really competitive against the Dolphins, 29 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: and today Chris Greer is let go. 30 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: But I I gotta take. 31 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: It's the word I'm looking for. I gotta take a second, 32 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: okay and call bs BS on something probably the most 33 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: powerful man in sports media had to say earlier today 34 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: was not research, not poorly researched, not research categorically misconstrued 35 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: or even false and designed simply to feed into the 36 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: narrative that the end of the day, the NFL is racist. 37 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: Right. 38 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: I'll get to that in one second. First, here's Mike McDaniel, 39 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: the still head coach of the Miami Dolphins, summing up 40 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: the loss after the game. 41 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: That was that self inflicted wounds. That we've been putting 42 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: such an emphasis on, you know, all things related to 43 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 3: our operation, and in a critical fourth and fourth and 44 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 3: one where the you know, we're pretty fired up about 45 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: the defensive look. It was what we were calling the 46 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 3: play for. And that's flat out a controllable that our 47 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 3: team knows that keeps you from winning. So I rate 48 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: at nothing but our self inflicted wound. 49 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that's Oli Gordon. He slips, he falls, he 50 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 1: low bridges oncoming defender, causes a penalty and they don't 51 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: get the first down because of it. And then Oli 52 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: Gordon is yelling back an assistant coach. And again, if 53 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: you watch the video, Oli fell down. He slipped, but 54 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: again it still is your fault when you slip. Whatever, 55 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: the Dolphins were gonna change coaches at the end of 56 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: the year, regardless, the Dolphins are probably gonna have to 57 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: change quarterbacks at the end of the year or get 58 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: into the process of whenever they can get out of 59 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: to his deal, get out. 60 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: Of to his deal. 61 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: Chris Greer was fired. That should be mentioned. He's been 62 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: with the organization for twenty five years. In those twenty 63 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: five years, they have won exactly zero playoff games. He's 64 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: been the GM for ten years. They've won exactly zero 65 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: playoff games. And I'm not saying it's not difficult, but 66 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: I heard this earlier today on first take, and I 67 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: thought it was so bad it was actually offensive. 68 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why after you listen to Steven A. 69 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: Smith is BS. That's the first fire. 70 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: Really, that's what we're doing, what we've seen, what we 71 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 4: just finished talking about. You know, there are things that 72 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 4: you need to be modified, et cetera, et cetera. But 73 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 4: the personnel that they have on their squad, although we're 74 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 4: not we're not happy with it. We didn't walk into 75 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 4: this season thinking they were going to be trash. We 76 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: looked at their rost and we said they got some potential. 77 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. 78 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 4: It was about Tua, it was about Mike McDaniel and 79 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 4: the brother get fired first. All I know is this, 80 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 4: I better hear Mike McDaniel's name today. I better hear 81 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 4: Mike McDaniel's name today. But it better not be just 82 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 4: Chris Grere. And I'm not saying that he don't deserve 83 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 4: it because of the way they look at the end. 84 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: You knew you at the helm. 85 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 4: I got it. I understand it. Listen, I'm all for 86 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 4: brothers as head coaches gyms. We know what battles I've 87 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 4: been fighting over thirty years. Okay, I got it, all right, 88 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 4: but we go because when you don't get the job done, 89 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 4: you don't get the damn job done. 90 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: Period. 91 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 5: I got it. 92 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 4: Don't tell me it's just him. Don't tell me we 93 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 4: gonna leave Mike McDaniel's in place, and we just gonna 94 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 4: fire him and we gonna move forward. 95 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: Damn that. 96 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 6: I don't want to hear it. 97 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 5: I'm waiting for more news. I'm waiting for more news again. 98 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 6: I can't. 99 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 4: I can't defend Chris Grere with some of the decisions 100 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 4: that have been made personal wise. 101 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: I got it. 102 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 4: I understand it's unfortunate, but I got it. But I'll 103 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 4: be damned if it gets to stop there. 104 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 2: Oh hell no, So we all heard the exact same thing. Okay. 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: I don't want to mislabel it. I don't want to 106 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: misassociate it. I don't want to treat it as anything 107 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: other than what we heard Stephen A. 108 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 2: Smith say. Steven A. 109 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:14,239 Speaker 1: Smith said that though he thinks Chris Greer ultimately should 110 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: have been fired because he's black, he shouldn't be the 111 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: first one fired because the problems are with TUA and 112 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: with Mike McDaniel. Now, there's two different things that we 113 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: have to point out one, Mike McDaniel is mixed race. 114 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: His father, I believe, is a black man. Tua is Samoan. 115 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: So again, I'm not racist. I don't know how racism works. 116 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: I just don't. Apparently, in Steven A. Smith's world, because 117 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: Chris Greer has darker skin and both parents are black, well, 118 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: then the Dolphins are racist against him more so than 119 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: against McDaniel and Tua. 120 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: Right, that's the assumption. 121 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: He talked about the decisions that have been made he 122 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: doesn't agree with. Who was the general manager when they 123 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: selected Tua? The answer is Chris Greer, who was the 124 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: general manager when they re signed Tua. The answer is 125 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: Chris Greer, who was the general manager who told the owner, 126 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: Stephen Ross. It's either Brian Flores, who didn't like Tua 127 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: and didn't like Chris Greer and didn't like essentially any 128 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: offensive coach who coached with him, and so they got 129 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: rid of him and they brought in Mike McDaniel. He 130 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: hired Mike McDaniel, He drafted Tua, he re upped toa 131 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: He built this entire roster, and the biggest flaw in 132 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: all of sports media is one of the things that 133 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: was on display outside of you know, race baiting and 134 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: creating a narrative which is completely false and doesn't exist 135 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: and is super embarrassing to any of us in sports media, 136 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: especially somebody who's the highest paid employee at ESPN essentially 137 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: calling the Dolphins races for firing a GM who they'd 138 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: held on for ten years despite the fact they never 139 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: won a playoff game. But here's the biggest mistake they made. 140 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: We are some of the players, We like some of 141 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: the players. That's because you don't like one he doesn't 142 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: know the roster. Second, it's not about the talent. The 143 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: most talented teams don't win. It's the best teams that win. 144 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 2: Hey, and they. 145 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: Made who made the decision to trade for for Tyreek Hill. 146 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: Keep in mind you can criticize the personnel, the wide 147 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: receivers they've given to Pat Mahomes since Tyreek Hill was traded, 148 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: they've won two Super Bowls since he's been gone. 149 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 2: Why. 150 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: Because you don't win just based on talent. You gotta 151 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: win based on guys that salary fits in and want 152 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: to be part of a team. Tyreek Kill didn't want that, 153 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: so they Chris Greer's biggest mistake, biggest mistake was drafting 154 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: to over Justin Herbert right. That ultimately is why he 155 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: gets fired. But the other mistakes he's made is he's 156 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: gone talent over character. They have some guys with terrible 157 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: character on that team that they've been trying to get 158 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 1: rid of, that ruined any sort of culture that they 159 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: tried to build. And the defense stakes and two is 160 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: not good enough and everybody knows it. But you have 161 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: the most powerful man in sports media. 162 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 2: Don't believe me. 163 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: Just ask him stating something which he's forgotten, that they 164 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 1: fired the coach last time to keep the general manager. 165 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: The coach was black, the general managers was black. Nobody 166 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: said anything about it except for Brian Flores, who sued 167 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. And so instead of actually talking about what happened, 168 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: how to fix it, who they should hire, you know, 169 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: or whatever, instead they label the NFL as racist. 170 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 2: And then there's nobody on that set that. 171 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: Goes like, uh, hey, you know, he was there for 172 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: twenty five years, he was the GM for ten. The 173 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: entire front office is actually black with the Miami Dolphins. 174 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: So they're not racist to hire and support and promote 175 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: Chris career, but they're racist to fire him. Instead of 176 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: firing a mixed race coach or firing a Simoan or 177 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: trading or get rid of or cutting a soon quarterback. 178 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense to anybody with any sort 179 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: of brains. But again, the people that listen to stephen A. 180 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: Smith think worlds out to get black people. The NFL 181 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: is racist. That's why they fire Chris Career first, and 182 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: they'll get to Mike mcdane. 183 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: It's some other day, Jace do. 184 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: I just want to make sure did you hear the 185 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: same thing that I heard? Just want to make sure 186 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: that I'm not just hearing things I'm not and I'm 187 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: not like, I'm not one of these guys that goes 188 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: around and tries to find things which people call racism 189 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: and you're like, it's not ra but like this is. 190 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: It's utterly ridiculous, and it's it's the type of thing 191 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: that I believe has driven people away from the rest 192 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: of ESPN. I don't think all or even most of 193 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: people who work at ESPN think this way. Most of 194 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: the broadcasting is based upon the actual sports, but the 195 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: race bating is tired, it's done, it's over, And this 196 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: one only proves that stephen A does no work, no 197 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: research doesn't actually care to do so. And then two 198 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: he plays that one card he always has, which is racist. 199 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 2: Did I miss something? 200 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 7: No, I don't think you missed anything. And I do 201 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 7: think that there needs to be some clarification from the 202 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 7: people over there at esp ON, like what what where 203 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 7: does the mixed race fall into this? Because remember Ryan 204 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 7: klarquast Fall said that Lamar Jackson needs to win a 205 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 7: Super Bowl for US. Lamar Jackson does when Pat Mahomes 206 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 7: is one four or five, right, Yeah, And in this situation, 207 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 7: mixed race Mike McDaniel somehow is left out of the equation. 208 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 7: I just don't know how that factors in here. 209 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just again, that's say that is a that 210 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: is a cultural argument that we can't That's one you 211 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: can't get into, right. I mean, look, nobody, nobody crushes 212 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: black people like black people. 213 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 2: Will do it. 214 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 8: You know. 215 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 1: It's one of the things about that A lot of 216 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: people in the black community will say, like, hey, why 217 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: do we treat light skin people differently than dark seam 218 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: Like why do we do that? It does happen in 219 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: other parts of society, happens in Mexico, as I think 220 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: anybody in California knows there's always been the comp between 221 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: lighter skinned Mexicans and darker skinned Mexicans. And again that's 222 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: not my purview. I don't know, and I don't care. 223 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he didn't take it. He wasn't saying 224 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: that because he's mixed raced. He's below that of you know, 225 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: somebody who comes from a black mom and black dad. 226 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: He didn't know. He didn't know. 227 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: He doesn't even remember about Brian Flores. He didn't know 228 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: about the whole Miami Dolphins front office. He doesn't know, 229 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: and he doesn't care because nobody outside of us and 230 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: some other people will call him on the bull crap. 231 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: But this is bull crap because all he had to 232 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: do was ask a researcher. He doesn't even have to 233 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: know himself. Hey man, give me, give me something on 234 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. And you know what, they wouldn't say. They 235 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't say, you know, it's got a racist to fire 236 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: at Chris Greer first, because they would point out, you know, 237 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,719 Speaker 1: they hired Chris Greer, They stood by Chris Greer. The 238 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: whole front office was African American, The last head coach 239 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: was African American. It doesn't make any sense, But that 240 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: doesn't get clicks, and we just gave him more clicks, 241 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: even if we were clowning on his take. 242 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 5: The best of the dog Dot Leap Show on Fox 243 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 5: Sports Radio. 244 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: Stut gott Leap Show here on Fox Sports Were Radio, 245 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: and let's welcome. 246 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: In season nine. 247 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: Season nine after an unbelievable run last year with the Knicks, 248 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: Josh Hart joins us and Josh, how many group chats 249 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: do you normally have?

I know you're 442 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: getting situated. You got other stuff to do. So we 443 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: played Kansas on Monday. Okay, their first exhibition, in our 444 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: first exhibition. We're both up on ESPN Plus. Okay, I 445 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: think they've both been taken down. Last night we played 446 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: an exhibition against Saint Norbert. They played an exhibition against 447 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: Fort Hayes State, I think two nights ago. I think 448 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: that was on ESPN Plus. But again, I think it's 449 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: been taken down. I don't think we you can. We 450 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: don't have the actual tapes. 451 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 2: So uh. 452 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: One of coach self's assistants asked, say, hey, we're gonna 453 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: do a tape exchange. Now it had not been pre 454 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: agreed to before. Okay, it's not like hey, we hey, listen, 455 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna do its tape exchange. 456 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 2: It's all good. Whatever. 457 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,479 Speaker 1: We play Monday, like their rank nineteen in the country, 458 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: we won four games last year. Do you give them 459 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: the tapes? 460 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 2: Yes, Chase do sure? Well, you guys are just like sure. 461 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 5: Like the. 462 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 9: Well Jason was sure. 463 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: I said, yes, okay buy or why you you actually 464 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: gave a little thought. I could see your brain working 465 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: a little bit there. 466 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 9: Why well, it reminds me of Deadliest Catch. Every episode 467 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 9: they joined to work together, and then somebody finds Crab 468 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 9: and then I want to give up their secrets and 469 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 9: it's this whole deal. And then if you're out on 470 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 9: somebody and they found out that you're that type of 471 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 9: guy that lingers. You giving your game tape to Kansas 472 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 9: is probably not going to affect the outcome of Monday. However, 473 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 9: you not giving up your tapes will have a reputation 474 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 9: that could last I don't know throughout the college game. 475 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 1: Sure, And and I consider Bill a mentor and a 476 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: friend as well, and I don't want to sell you 477 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: that relationship. On the other hand, there is the like, hey, well, 478 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: Bill self calls and he called me this morning. I 479 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: haven't missed him because I was prepping for the show. 480 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: You know, he calls, you wants the tapes? Like, what 481 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: am I gonna do? 482 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 2: Here? Go like no, But do. 483 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: I think like if he was playing John Shire today, 484 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: would John Shire be like, I'm like you ay tapes? 485 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: Like what are you talking about? Yeah? It was definitely 486 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: Evy right right. They're Kansas. Yeah, but they're Kansas. 487 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 9: But it's also different like Duke in Green Bay. 488 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 2: No, what do you what do you think? What do 489 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 2: you think? 490 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: What do you think it's worse to them? Ten grand, 491 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: twenty grand? I'm just thought here, let me ask Mark Dominic. 492 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: He's a former general manager of tamp Bay Buccaneers, who 493 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: joins us for his weekly visit Mark. We open the 494 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: season with Kansas, the most storied program in college basketball. 495 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: You know it's it's the place where James Nasmith is 496 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: the only coach ever to have a losing. 497 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 2: Record in the history of the program. 498 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: Right, it's they play in an absolute cathedral. They won 499 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: like it's your Alla Modern. They won like twenty straight 500 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: big twelves. He's won two national championships. I would my 501 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: guess would be they have thirty times what we have 502 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: in nil and that may be underselling. So coach South 503 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: politely asked for our exhibition tapes in a tape exchange? 504 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 2: Do you give it to him? 505 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 8: Who? 506 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,160 Speaker 6: So again rock Kerry Hawk to start this off with, Well, 507 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 6: you know what, probably if it's something that you're consistently 508 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 6: done before with programs, I think it's never never done. 509 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: Last year when we played Oklahoma State, Yeah, we made 510 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: sure they didn't because when we play we played St. 511 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: Norbert every year. They're in our town. They're Division III. 512 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: So last year Anthony Roy, who by the way, now 513 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: plays for Oklama State, he made twelve his first twelve threes. 514 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 2: So we're like Oh god, I hope they don't see 515 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: that tape. Right. 516 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: We didn't even we ran a couple of things, but 517 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: he was just so good it was unbelievable. And he 518 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: ended up having like thirty two against Oklahoma State. But again, like, 519 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: I don't they hadn't seen that tape. I don't believe. 520 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: So it's not something it's not in the contract. We 521 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: hadn't previously agreed to it. But I mean, he's Bill 522 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: effing self and he's like, hey, let's switch tapes. 523 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 2: What do I say? 524 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 6: Yeah? I would say that Bill is just something we 525 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 6: just don't do. As much as I appreciate it, it's 526 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 6: just something we don't do. And I'd feel good about that. 527 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 6: And he'd be like, well, what's the big deal. I'm like, 528 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,719 Speaker 6: I think you already have you know, a situation there 529 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 6: where you know, we're just walking in but we're gonna 530 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 6: stay with president. This is what we've always done. We've 531 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 6: rarely ever switched tapes, and I would I would do that. 532 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 6: That's then I would have the confidence to say, hey, 533 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 6: well I appreciate it, and uh, you know, but that's 534 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 6: just something we don't do. And I wouldn't think twice 535 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 6: about it. Because I don't think it's going to change. Uh, 536 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 6: the relationship you may have or don't have with Bill. 537 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: Self fair enough, I got I got some just deciding 538 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: to do here for the next couple of hours because 539 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: I know that phone's gonna blow up as soon as 540 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: we hit sin as we hit four Local Doug Gottlieb Show, 541 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. The Dolphins, I mean, that's how they've 542 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: looked most of the year. Uh, and they have some 543 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: issues there. What are your thoughts on the Chris career firing. 544 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 6: Well, I'm jealous because when I got fired, it wasn't 545 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 6: I thought it was a mutual decision too. But I 546 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 6: guess he gets to have the mutual decision and mine 547 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 6: was just getting fired. Yeah, you know, I'm not I 548 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 6: hate to say this. Chris is a guy that I've 549 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 6: known forever. Obviously, anybody that's been in the NFL has 550 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 6: known him since I think we got in the league 551 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 6: just about the same time, might be the one year sooner. 552 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 6: He's been part of that Dolphins organization for a long 553 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 6: time and and part of the decision making all the 554 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 6: way back to two thousand and three when he was 555 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 6: director of college scouting, and then he was you know, 556 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 6: the player personnel, and so he's he's been he's the 557 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 6: director of overall scouting, so he's been part of the 558 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 6: Dolphins for you know, two decades. At some point I 559 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 6: get it, like I understand where mister Ross said. It's 560 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 6: it's got to be part of the culture of the 561 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 6: team that we created and the culture of the team, Yeah, 562 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 6: it comes through the head coach, but also is the 563 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 6: people that you bring him to the building. And I 564 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 6: think you've got to you know, you don't just talk 565 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 6: to you know, you know people around your organization. You 566 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 6: talk to players in your organization. You talk to people 567 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 6: that you trust in the organization and get a sense 568 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 6: of what are they saying. And it sounds to me 569 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 6: like and this is what I thought. I thought, either 570 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 6: they're both gone or just Chris goes. And then at 571 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 6: the end of the year, you know, then maybe you 572 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 6: make the change with the head coach to see if 573 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 6: anything else changes, and tweaks as players kind of going, wow, 574 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 6: the guy that drafted me's not here anymore. They got 575 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 6: to sign me as a free agent, or is not 576 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 6: here anymore, and you better step up your game because 577 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 6: you know the person's coming in. Goes, these weren't my guys, right, 578 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 6: So I think it's gonna be a what do we 579 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 6: see the Dolphins look like over the next you know, 580 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 6: weeks and months. But I don't think it's a quick 581 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 6: firing to the head coach. I think this one you 582 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 6: could play this one all the way out until December, 583 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 6: see where the team sits, and then make the decision there. 584 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: What got him fired the quarterback decision, the coaching decision, 585 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: or the lack of culture that they appear by all 586 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: reports to have because of some of the personnel they've acquired. 587 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think I think what got him 588 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 6: fired was if you're just really looking at what they've 589 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 6: tried to build for the last decade, they just can't 590 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 6: seem to build ay through the sustainable and I think 591 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 6: mister Rosslick said it and goes, you know what the 592 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 6: offensive line is still feels like kind of a mess. 593 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 3: You know. 594 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 6: The skill guys, Yes, we got jam and Wall right, 595 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,959 Speaker 6: but we had to go get Tyreek Hill. You know, 596 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 6: do we where are we at? Skill wise? You know? 597 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 6: And I think it was just not the elite players 598 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 6: that you're not seeing, especially on the defensive of the ball. 599 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 6: You know, there's just good football players, but the elite 600 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 6: ones just aren't showing up. And I think there's been 601 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 6: enough draft classes to say who do you hang your 602 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 6: hat on? And so I think it's an overall I don't. 603 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 6: I never thought, and I think we talked about it. 604 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 6: I never thought, too, we should have a long term extension. 605 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 6: Thought would be like a two or three year extension 606 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 6: and kind of see what happens. I do think the 607 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 6: two of contract has to play into it somewhat because 608 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 6: you're just married to him and it is what it is. 609 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 6: And I think that's a bit frustrating too, because I'm 610 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,719 Speaker 6: sure in the end he signed off on that, and 611 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 6: that's that's the decision you make as a GM. You 612 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 6: ride or die with your quarterback. 613 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, I mean, 614 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you, I understand the thoroughness by 615 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: what you're talking about in terms of your evaluation of 616 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: everything in the organization until the season's over. But I 617 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: think we'd probably both agree. If you're get rid of 618 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: the guy who built the team and was part of 619 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: the build for the last twenty five years, you're going 620 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,959 Speaker 1: to change coaches. You're probably going to change quarterbacks as 621 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: well pretty soon. 622 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 6: I don't disagree. I think that that's more than likely 623 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 6: correct because of the fact that, look, you know, the 624 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 6: next person may hold on to him or you just 625 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 6: you know, eat it. I mean, that's the difference that 626 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 6: we have in the salary cap these days. When I 627 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 6: was gim over five years a salary cap went up 628 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 6: one million dollars or the five year period. You know, 629 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 6: Now we're seeing jumps of twenty twenty five million dollars 630 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 6: a year. So when you make a colossal mistake or 631 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 6: you admit a mistakes, you can survive it. You can 632 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 6: survive the Carson Wentzes of the worlds or whatever the 633 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 6: big deal is of the quarterback in now Latua, and 634 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 6: you just realize, we're just going to write that off. Understand, 635 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 6: we've got to make a change and change the direction. 636 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 6: So I do think two is probably done, But obviously 637 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 6: it's going to be up to the next season and 638 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 6: the next potential head coach. 639 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: Stet got leaves show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, 640 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: so then let's ask about the Baltimore Ravens. What can 641 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: we decipher from a team that had been kind of 642 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:58,959 Speaker 1: lost now they've won a couple of row. They got 643 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson back. What's the hope like that they can 644 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: turn the season around, considering the defense has been as 645 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: much of the issue as the offense. 646 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I think that they absolutely can turn 647 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 6: it around. I mean, the AFC North all lost, right, 648 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 6: so that's everything they needed to see happen, you know, 649 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 6: before their game on Monday night, and then you know 650 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 6: now that this team is they can continue to get 651 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 6: healthy er and start to play a little bit more 652 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 6: consistent like they did last than on defense. I still 653 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 6: think the Ravens make the postseason, and I said that 654 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 6: when they were one in five. I'm like, you've got 655 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 6: to look at their schedule and it feels like this 656 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 6: is a team that could really get all the way 657 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 6: there and get back. And I'm not going to count 658 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 6: out coach Harbon. I'm not going to count out Lamar Jackson. 659 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 6: So I think they're gonna role. I think they're going 660 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 6: to get back to five hundred in the next whatever 661 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 6: it's going to be four to five weeks, and then 662 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 6: I think that they'll find a way to get one 663 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 6: or two games over that market. I think they'll be 664 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 6: eleven in or ten and seven and be in the postseason, 665 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 6: and I think they'll be a scary postseason team. They 666 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 6: went to a slump and that's when you wanted to 667 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 6: kind of see what they do. But I don't think 668 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 6: they're going to fall back into that slump. I think 669 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 6: this team is legit. 670 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio, Mark dominks 671 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: our guests. Of course, he's the former gall undred ten 672 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Works his entire professional life like Chris Greer 673 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: working up in the system. He worked his way up 674 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: in Tampa, so there's a lot of similarities there here 675 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: on the Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio, would 676 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: you re up Danny Dimes when you have all of 677 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: what he did with the Giants, the time with Minnesota 678 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: and eight games of success so far with Indy. 679 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 6: Not yet I got to see it play all the 680 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 6: way through. I want to see it in the postseason. 681 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 6: I want to see the whole picture. And I've got 682 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 6: the leverage to be able to do that if I 683 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 6: had to, you know, put the tag on him. So 684 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 6: I'm not going to be in a hurry to do this. 685 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,760 Speaker 6: I'm you know, if I'm Chris Kreer. Excuse me, Chris Ballard, 686 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 6: I am, you know, ecstatic about this decision and what's 687 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 6: happened to our organization. And I've talked about, you know, 688 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 6: the entire offensive units as a whole is really playing well. 689 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 6: Tyler Warren has been a huge impact the offensive line 690 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 6: staying healthy, and obviously you know, the Alex Pearce's are 691 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 6: having career years right at the right time, and his 692 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,839 Speaker 6: fourth year, so it's all coming together. But I don't 693 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 6: sit there and go, Okay, now, I've got to hurry 694 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 6: up and get a deal done, even if I have 695 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 6: to pay more, Doug, I'd rather pay more and know 696 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 6: rather than, oh, I'm going to get a Baker Mayfield 697 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,760 Speaker 6: deal three for one hundred million. I'd rather pay forty 698 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 6: five to fifty million a year to make sure you 699 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 6: know that I'm getting a guy that I think can 700 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 6: do it for you know, eight to ten years, and 701 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 6: you know that's kind of the hope. And so I'll 702 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 6: pay more. But I need to see more, and I 703 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 6: believe in what I'm seeing, but I still want to 704 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 6: see it against bigger opponents, bigger stage, bigger situations, and 705 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 6: then we'll look at it. 706 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: Stut Gottleeb Show on Fox Sports Radio Mark Dominic is 707 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: our guest. I'm trying to figure out Sunday Night football 708 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: because in the fourth quarter of the Packers look like 709 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: a super Bowl team, which they have occasionally previously. But 710 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 1: I also I think Pittsburgh's defense thinks which was Sunday 711 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: Night more a case of Pittsburgh's defense just not being 712 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,919 Speaker 1: very good or the Packers kind of finding the rhythm. 713 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 6: Well, you know, obviously, you know, we've talked a lot 714 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 6: about Jordan Love, and you know, he looked fantastic and 715 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,439 Speaker 6: was doing everything he wanted to do. And I went 716 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 6: into the season believing in the Greenway Packers. I also 717 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 6: was the one going in the season believing in the 718 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 6: Pittsburgh Steelers and not just Aaron Rodgers. But I thought 719 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 6: the defense was going to be a big part of 720 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 6: what they're able to do, and right now it's not. 721 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 6: It's just not coming together. And again, it's that secondary 722 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 6: to me that they just can't seem to find the 723 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 6: right set of guys all at once clicked them together, 724 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 6: and so it's just very frustrating. I think that's why 725 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 6: they made the trade for Kyle Duggar to try to 726 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 6: get something else going on here. Within that organization to 727 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 6: fix the back end of the defense. I think that's 728 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 6: a big pieces of trouble and that's that's you got 729 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 6: to get through that first. They've got cash rushers. I 730 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 6: feel like they're you know, Peyton Wilson, they're inside linebacker. 731 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,479 Speaker 6: May not be having a great season, but he's still 732 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 6: fitting his way to the ball. I just think it's 733 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 6: a secondary. I think that's why they made the move 734 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 6: for Kyle Duggar. I know he's on the you know, 735 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 6: the backside safety part, but they're looking for something to 736 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,479 Speaker 6: kind of energize it and be more physical but also 737 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 6: be more disciplined. It's a Mike Commlin thing that you 738 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 6: would expect, but this is a Steelers defense, especially the secondary, 739 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 6: and any Steelers fans know never quite find a way 740 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 6: to get it fully correct. And I think that's what 741 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:07,879 Speaker 6: we saw Sunday night. 742 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: We're only seven games in and he's been banged up 743 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 1: even for those seven games after missing his first year. 744 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: But you do you watch Danny Dimes who they had, 745 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: You watch Sam Darnold who they had, and you got 746 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: to ask yourself, did the Vikings make the right decision 747 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: at quarterback? 748 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 2: What's your opinion? 749 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 6: My opinion is I want to see more out of JJ. 750 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 6: So you know, it's it's it's one thing. Danny Dimes, 751 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 6: you know, was there, but he had the opportunity and 752 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 6: he left and I can understand why. But with JJ, 753 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 6: I just need to see more. Still, I don't feel 754 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 6: like the book is written on JJ. There's not enough 755 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 6: starts ready to his belt. And now that he's going 756 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 6: to be back and I think able to go out 757 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 6: there and run around. Let's see again, he's thrown forty 758 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 6: one passes in the National Football League total in his life, 759 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 6: you know, so until he gets a two hundred and 760 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 6: three hundred pass and attempts, it's really hard to write anything. 761 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 6: I know it's been frustrating. I know it's been one 762 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 6: good quarter, but I still think he's got it and 763 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 6: we'll get to see it this weekend and see how 764 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 6: they play. But I think that overall, I believe that 765 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 6: he'll be the quarterback in the future, and I believe 766 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 6: that they're in good hands, and I would stay maintained. 767 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 6: I would maintain that statement in with the game of 768 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 6: Detroit this weekend. 769 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: Demiko ryans he went to that place where it feels 770 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: like coaches only go when they're fighting for their job, 771 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 1: which is ah, the media is just negative. They're all negative. 772 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 1: Like we're talking Houston media. That's that doesn't feel like 773 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 1: the most negative media. What's your feel for Dimiko Ryan's 774 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: year three after really having a tremendous year one, okay, 775 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: year two, and now some struggles in year three. 776 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I know they have had some struggles, but they've also, 777 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 6: you know, had some really nice, nice victories, certainly this 778 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 6: last one. He gets to the forty nine ers. They look 779 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 6: they had they they had rough starts, right, I mean, 780 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 6: they lose those first three games something by about you 781 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 6: know whatever, ten twelve points by the three games, and 782 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 6: so I can understand why there's a little frustration, but 783 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 6: they're fortunately they're in their division, which is them in 784 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 6: the colts, fighting for it, and although they're three and 785 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 6: four Dimico's, you know, I don't agree that to me 786 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 6: is just hating on us. I think that it's just 787 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 6: one of those things where I think that expectations were 788 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 6: to continue to see the acceleration. They haven't done that. 789 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 6: But it doesn't mean the meeting is against them, and 790 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 6: I don't think they will be. They've got a really 791 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 6: interesting game this weekend against the Denver Broncos that I'm 792 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 6: very fired up to see that they got back to 793 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 6: back AFC South games, which will be critical for them 794 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 6: to get back in this hunt. They're one of the 795 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 6: teams that I would have thought would be in the playoffs. 796 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 6: I thought they were in the layoffs at the start 797 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 6: of the season. It's going to be an uphill battle 798 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 6: because they still have some really tough ones. But they 799 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 6: got still both games against the Colts, and they got 800 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 6: the Chargers in the Chiefs game less. So there's a 801 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 6: lot of work to be done. But I think we'll 802 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 6: see consistency, but I think it might be a nine 803 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 6: and eight type of year. 804 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: Mark, you're the best man. Have a happy Halloween. Thanks 805 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 1: much for joining us. We'll talk to you next week, coach, 806 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: I said, Alope, I will do. I will do. So 807 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: that's Mark Dominic. If you want to come Monday, I 808 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: got a ticket for you. 809 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 6: I love that. I love that. I would love to 810 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 6: be there. The amazing congratulations, good luck. I'm sure it's 811 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 6: be fun. 812 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: That's a no. 813 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 1: By the way, that was an that was the nicest 814 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: nose of all time. 815 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 2: Thanks. Thanks Mark,
