Speaker 2: I wore black for a reason, Monzy. It's Black Friday

5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 2: of the National Football League, and some head coaches learn

6
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,080
Speaker 2: the hard way. We dive into that in so much more.

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 2: A Happy New Year to you. We could still say

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: it on January fifth.

9
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 3: Can we still say? I guess it is early, still right,

10
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 3: still in the first week. What's up everybody?

11
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: Do you think when Kevin Stefanski walked into Jimmy Haslam's

12
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: office to me, He's like, happy New Year.

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 3: Just to have a have you new year for me,

14
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 3: not so much for you.

15
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: Sit twenty twenty six not your year right now. Kevin

16
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: Stefanski one of the head coaches to lose their job today,

17
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: maybe the most notable. But as we look at the

18
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: landscape of the National Football League, it's this Cleveland Browns job, Monzi,

19
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 2: that rises to the level. Now we've had We've had

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: a variety of of oustings today. Isaac just ran down

21
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 2: some of them. So we had Jonathan Gannon in Arizona gone, okay,

22
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: Pete Carroll in Las Vegas.

23
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 4: Pig gone all right?

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: Uh, Kevin Stefanski.

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 5: Haig gone.

26
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 2: We had Raheem Morris last night, Brian day Ball earlier

27
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: in the season, Brian Callahan. I don't think made it

28
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 2: to week eight? Pig am I missing anyone? Isaac? Did

29
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: we miss anyone of our?

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 6: Of our I think Tennessee, Yeah, Tennessee. That was the one.

31
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: I was thinking, Yes, that was the That was the

32
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: last one. So that Sue's all gone. Right. Oh, the

33
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: question is now who is in in Cleveland? But before

34
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: we get to that, this was in the makings. Kevin

35
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:57,639
Speaker 2: Stefanski's time in Cleveland is not just a one time,

36
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 2: one thing deal in it's not just should or Sanders,

37
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 2: but should or Sanders was the straw that broke the

38
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: camel's back. I truly feel it's a three strikes in

39
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: your out sort of deal. Aside from Miles Garrett getting

40
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: the sack record and having the Browns just not be

41
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 2: a good football team this year, I feel that there

42
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: were three key moments in Kevin Stefanski's six year tenure

43
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: that brought him to today, and the first one was

44
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 2: giving up on Baker Mayfield. I think that is a

45
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 2: really tough one to come back from considering Baker's success.

46
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: I know you're a big fan of the way that

47
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: Baker plays and the energy that he brings, and that

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: was actually one of the reasons why he was brought

49
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 2: into Cleveland. How the room responded even after a playoff

50
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 2: appearance with Baker Mayfield as you're starting quarterback. Kevin Stefanski

51
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 2: did not believe in Baker Mayfield and ushered his way

52
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: out of Cleveland. I think that was strike one. I

53
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: think strike two, fairly or unfairly, was that Deshaun Watson

54
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: was not the same quarterback after the scandal, after the

55
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 2: year sitting out, after all of his issues with the

56
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: Houston Texans coming to Cleveland, and just not being a

57
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 2: good quarterback. But the final strike three, right down, fastball

58
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: down the middle was ultimately how he handled this entire

59
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: Shador Sanders situation this season. I can remember on draft

60
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 2: Day looking at the shot of Kevin Stefanski and Andrew

61
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: Berry almost like they're being interrogated, sitting there with no

62
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: expression on their face, as the Browns just drafted shaud

63
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: Or Sanders in the fifth round, and we all said

64
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: had to be ownership. Ownership had to make that decision.

65
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: But then it was Shoudour not getting the reps, Shoudur

66
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: being put into a preseason game where he wasn't necessarily qualified,

67
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: seeing the other steps along the way, Dylan Gabriel's play,

68
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 2: Joe Flacco's play, and ultimately Shador's play that I think

69
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: was the ultimate reason that Kevin Stefanski lost his job.

70
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: Today, I don't disagree with you. I like how you

71
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 3: put it. It was the straw that broke the camel's back,

72
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: because yeah, it's hard to come back from the Baker

73
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 3: Mayfield although situation, although it was the best thing for

74
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield right like he needed to also get out

75
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: of that situation. And so it's like, Okay, bad for you,

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: but really good for Baker Mayfield. That Deshaun Watson bad

77
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 3: from top to bottom. All of that With Shador Sanders

78
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 3: from the beginning, it was just kind of like, Brown's

79
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 3: what are you doing? What exactly is your plan? I

80
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: really wish I could have been a fly on the

81
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 3: wall during those conversations, because sometimes I was wondering if

82
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: Kevin Stefanski himself throughout the season was just going through

83
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: the motions because he was upset with ownership, or was

84
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: he really in on it from the beginning, and then

85
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: he just didn't handle it well? Which one? You know

86
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like, was he against it from the

87
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 3: beginning and kind of just going through the motions, or

88
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 3: was he in on this decision and then he did

89
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 3: not manage the entire season?

90
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: Right?

91
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is, but I thought when

92
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: I when they finally fired him, I don't think Kevin

93
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 3: Sevansky was surprised, if I'm being honest with you. He

94
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: saw how this season went back to back. He's being

95
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 3: last place right in the division. Aside from Miles Garrett,

96
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 3: as you mentioned, what have the Browns? What have you

97
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 3: done for me lately? Except people talk about us in

98
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 3: the most negative way possible. You needed to change, He

99
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: needed to change. I don't think he's surprised about it.

100
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: But all this says is that the Browns chose Shador

101
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 3: Sanders to move forward with. You could not keep them

102
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 3: together all season. The questions were, Shador, how do you

103
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 3: get along with Kevin? How do you get along with

104
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 3: your head coach? How are things with you and Kevin's

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 3: Every single time it was a question for Shador Sanders,

106
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 3: and he I thought handled them pretty well every single time.

107
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 3: He even would say, man, you guys are trying to

108
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 3: get me in trouble with these questions like that. People

109
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 3: were trying to stir the pot here. So you could

110
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: not continue with both, you could not. And so maybe

111
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 3: the Browns are like we are, we are going to

112
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: move forward with Shador Sanders give it. Give him the

113
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 3: number one, you know, the number one reps all season,

114
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,799
Speaker 3: not just for a couple of weeks, and see what happens.

115
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 3: And Kevin Stefanski, thank you so much, Coach of the Year,

116
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: Thank you. Good luck somewhere else, ken I get it.

117
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kevin Stefanski's resume isn't littered with success stories everywhere.

118
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 2: There are the case Keenum resurrection story with the Minnesota Vikings,

119
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: one of the reasons why Kevin Stefanski ended up being

120
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 2: where he was. But when you look at the failures,

121
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: and I would add a part C to your deal,

122
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 2: I don't think he was in on it. I think

123
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: that he on the drafting of Shador. I think that

124
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 2: he wanted to do his own way and his own thing.

125
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: I do believe he was probably in on the drafting

126
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 2: of Dylan Gabriel. And when you see how the two played.

127
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: Dylan Gabriel the one part that's not talked about a

128
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: lot is I think, well, we all know now it

129
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 2: was in extreme reach for Dylan Gabriel at that spot.

130
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: Even at the time of the drafts, some people were like,

131
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 2: Dylan Gabriel third, and then then while Shador' still on

132
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 2: the board, Dylan Gabriel went ahead of him. Dylan Gabriel

133
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 2: probably shouldn't have been a third round pick. And then

134
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 2: to have the plan that they had in Cleveland of

135
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: Gabriel being the backup when they let go and let

136
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 2: can he pick Itt leave and shipped him out of Cleveland.

137
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 2: The other factor in this, and it probably has nothing

138
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 2: to do with Chador, was Joe Flacco played better when

139
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: he was out of Cleveland.

140
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, like, is you forget about that? That this season

141
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 4: for such a weird sort of feeling. Joe Flacco in Cincinnati,

142
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 4: even though they win any football games, looked like the

143
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 4: quarterback with the Browns two years ago that led them

144
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 4: to the playoffs. So if he's coming in this year

145
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 4: and is not having the success and then he goes

146
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 4: to Cincinnati on a trade and immediately goes in and

147
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 4: beats the Steelers, and throws for like, you're wondering what

148
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 4: is going on here? Is it just the talent around? Sure,

149
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 4: it's nice to have Jamar Chase and t Higgins, But

150
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 4: I think that Joe Flacco's success in Cincinnati probably wasn't

151
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 4: a good thing for Kevin Stefanski of why is Joe

152
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 4: Flacco now the guy that he was? And ultimately it

153
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 4: does come down to Shador. You hit it one hundred

154
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 4: percent nail on the head, But I don't think if

155
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 4: he didn't jettison Baker. By the way, if he didn't

156
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: jennison Baker, they may never needed Shad or Sanders. They

157
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 4: wouldn't have needed Deshaun Watson. If they didn't do any

158
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 4: of those things with Baker, we wouldn't have gotten to

159
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 4: this point. But if it was only Shador, I think

160
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: didn't maybe do another season to try to work it out,

161
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 4: try to figure things out and realize their mistakes. But

162
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 4: there were just too many mistakes leading up to it,

163
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 4: and at your point, it just became a fork in

164
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: the road. Do you go Shador, do you go Stefanski?

165
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: And I think they chose Shador.

166
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then especially like let's compare the Raiders this

167
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 3: season right. What was good for the Raiders.

168
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 4: Not much, not much right right?

169
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 3: So not much with Cleveland, they've been good defensively, Like

170
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 3: it's like sure, so it's like, oh, we only need

171
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 3: to fix this part. We only need to plug this

172
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 3: guy in here, and then we can balance out and

173
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 3: we can put some wins together. And it hasn't happened

174
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 3: when you've had a good defensive team for your entire

175
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 3: tenure there pretty much, you know what I'm saying, And

176
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: it has not. You have not been able to put

177
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 3: the other side together, and then you've let go of

178
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 3: quarterbacks or got rid of quarter who have had success elsewhere. Like,

179
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 3: it's not as much of a good coach as Stefanski

180
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: is because he's gonna get picked up really easily. I think.

181
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna be.

182
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 2: Giants were thought to be.

183
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 4: And I bet you there's more Raiders.

184
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 3: I bet you there's more. He's not gonna be a

185
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: free agent for very long. But you needed you needed

186
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 3: a change because you were providing what I feel like

187
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 3: teams wish they had a defense, as we are seeing

188
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 3: in this season how important it is to have a

189
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 3: defense that can stop a bleed. They were doing it all.

190
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: They were doing it all season, they were doing it

191
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: all last year, and then Stefanski just could not get

192
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 3: the offense going. For whatever it is, I don't know.

193
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 3: So I get moving on and I think you've hit

194
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 3: it on the head with all of the reasons why.

195
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 3: Probably they decided to move.

196
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 2: On because I think there's gonna be a group of

197
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: people that say Shaudor got Kevin Stefanski fired, and I

198
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 2: don't think that that's no. I don't, And I think

199
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: that there's a bunch of stuff leading up to it.

200
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 2: I think that Shador is a part of it. Andrew Berry,

201
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 2: the GM stays right right. So so for as bad

202
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: as the Dylan Gabriel draft pick, they did keep their

203
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: GM and felt like they needed a new voice with

204
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 2: their players. To question now, Jason Stewart's our executive producer,

205
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 2: is who is that new voice for the Cleveland Browns.

206
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel's name has been tossed about if Stefanski were

207
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 2: to leave and the Dolphins ended up making a move,

208
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 2: But it doesn't seem like the Dolphins are going to

209
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 2: make a move. So now it's who's next.

210
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 7: I want to know this. I want to know how

211
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 7: much work right now is being done in the back

212
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 7: channels by Dion Sanders. Could the Browns hire Dion Sanders

213
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 7: and would that not be the biggest marketing win for

214
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 7: the very shortest term ever.

215
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 2: It would be league altering. The Browns would be back,

216
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 2: Not like they weren't the team that we focused on,

217
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 2: but it felt like when everything was even bad with Cleveland,

218
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 2: we were always talking about what was going on with

219
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 2: the Brons. We still were with Shador. They would be

220
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 2: the team. They would have twelve primetime games next year

221
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: coming off of a five win season if Dion ended

222
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 2: up being the head coach. And for those that may

223
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 2: say that's ridiculous, that's crazy to hire Dion Sanders as

224
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 2: the Browns head coach. The Arizona Cardinals took quite the

225
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 2: leap of faith in bringing in Cliff Kingsbury as their

226
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: head coach after a tenure at Texas Tech that did

227
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 2: not scream NFL head coach availability. In fact, he was

228
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: USC's offensive coordinator for about a day before he became

229
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: the Arizona Cardinals head coach. So you don't have to

230
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 2: have the full qualifications and resume in college football to

231
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 2: make the leap to the NFL, and one of the

232
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 2: reasons why Cliff Kingsbury was able to go and make

233
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 2: the jump was of his offense, and then his offense

234
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 2: was able to draft Kyler Murray. So then those two,

235
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: with their relationship in the past, were able to work

236
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 2: together in Arizona. Well, who's got a better relationship with

237
00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 2: Shaidhor Sanders than his dad. I don't think it's as

238
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 2: crazy as it may sound when Jason says that there's

239
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: some underground talks going on, because it actually would make

240
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 2: more sense than other head coaching higres we've seen in

241
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 2: the National Football League.

242
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 3: I would not be surprised if the Browns decided to

243
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 3: do that because it would be an instant win for

244
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 3: ticket sales, marketing for all of that. Now, could they

245
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 3: actually win a game? Could they turn the season around?

246
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 3: I don't. I mean, I don't know. I don't know.

247
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 3: Deon Sanders to me is Deon Sanders, so he doesn't

248
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 3: even need to have a resume. I feel like he's

249
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 3: just gonna get the job because of his name. But

250
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 3: does Deon Sanders want that? Does he want that? I

251
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 3: feel like he likes being the guy in Colorado. Yes,

252
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 3: he's the guy. Yes, he's a god there.

253
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: Oh well, yes to some extent.

254
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: But in that small you know what I'm saying.

255
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 2: Yes, started to dwindle the last couple of years and

256
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: Colorado went one and eight in conference.

257
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 3: Right, No, no, the egg and so let's make them

258
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 3: an NFL coach.

259
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 2: That's that's the crazy part about it. And that's why

260
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 2: I bring up Cliff Kingsbury's because somebody would say, like

261
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 2: Colorado won three games this past year, how is he

262
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: going to be a head coach. If there's anybody to

263
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 2: get the most out of Shador, it is probably Dion.

264
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 2: And Dion wouldn't have to mess with the defense. Just

265
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: paid Jim Schwartz a lot of money to stay as

266
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 2: your defensive coordinator. Right, isn't that the ultimate move? Dion

267
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: has his CEO role, Find an offensive coordinator that Deon

268
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: sees fit to work with Shador. Let the defense be

269
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 2: the defense. That's fine, just be on their side of

270
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 2: the thing. It's it's not as crazy a of a thought,

271
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 2: considering I think a lot of the eggs are in

272
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 2: the basket of Shador, and there's no guarantee Deshaan Watson

273
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: is going to be ready or the same quarterback and

274
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 2: I'd rather have a young Shador than an aging and

275
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 2: aching Deshaun Watson coming off of an achilles in for

276
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: my quarterback in twenty twenty, twenty twenty six, to see

277
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 2: what's ahead. Dean doesn't have to have the job for

278
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 2: three years. If it doesn't work next year or the

279
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 2: year after, move on, you know, get a get a

280
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 2: new quarterback if he's if he's awful next year. Pete

281
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: Carroll got fired after one season. But I do think

282
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: that the Browns would have to look at Dean Sanders

283
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: if you're truly trying to figure out a way to

284
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 2: max up, maximize it or Sanders, you.

285
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 3: Know, no, absolutely the thing that stopped me in my

286
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 3: truck in my tracks right now, right now you were talking,

287
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 3: I had a glitch when you were like the Shawn Watson,

288
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 3: what we're really entertaining that?

289
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: Well, he was, he's Are they going to be paying him?

290
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 3: Manzie, Listen, the Raiders are paying a bunch of guys

291
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 3: to not coach, so they could continue to pay him

292
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 3: to just not play, because are they really entertaining the

293
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 3: idea that Deshaun Watson can be your starting quarterback?

294
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 2: I just got an email that said I can't believe

295
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: you would entertain DeShawn Watt. Did you send this email

296
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: to me as well? No, I think he's a part

297
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: of the plans. I think he is. I think he

298
00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 2: has to be by default. It's truly by default, because

299
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: you don't have all the answers with Shador. He is

300
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 2: a veteran, that's there. You have two first round picks.

301
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna use one on a quarterback.

302
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: You could make the team better, you can build the

303
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: team around it. But yeah, I think he's I think

304
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: he's definitely an option to playing twenty.

305
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 7: Do you guys remember in the spring when I think

306
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 7: Jimmy has them gave an interview to the local paper

307
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 7: and he said about Deshaun Watson that it was a

308
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 7: big swing and miss. And I remember in the immediate

309
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 7: aftermath of that was that means Deshaun Watson's never put

310
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 7: in on a Browns uniform again. And then this entire

311
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 7: seasons to fans gain everybody else, we're entertaining questions about DeShawn.

312
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 7: You know, will he be practicing, will he be playing

313
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 7: by the end of the year. The whole thing just

314
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 7: doesn't add up. It was a big swing in the

315
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 7: miss by the owner back in the spring. But I

316
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 7: guess DeShawn were led to believe it's still in play

317
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 7: for the quarterback position.

318
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: Oh, I just I don't think it's an awful option

319
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: if Shador is your main guy, and to see Deshaun

320
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: Watson travel with the team and be available to the

321
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: team where he was basically behind the seat. We hadn't

322
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 2: seen anything during his rehab, but then he starts traveling

323
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: with the team and is on the sideline, tells me

324
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: that he's a bit more a part of the team

325
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: than maybe we had realized. And so now if he

326
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: comes back in a backup situation, I mean maybe should

327
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 2: or shouldn't be handed the job. Maybe he should be.

328
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 2: I don't know. But instead of going out and trying

329
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: to find someone else and paying the money that you

330
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: have for Deshaun Watson, why don't you just utilize them

331
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: and have him be the backup.

332
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 3: I just think that's by default. Yeah, I think that's

333
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 3: that's probably the right way to put it. By default,

334
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 3: And it isn't a bad thing to have should do

335
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 3: or have some competition. You're right, You're right. I just

336
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 3: it's crazy that I feel like I'm in the upside down.

337
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: I know it is. It is crazy. I don't know

338
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: if you're looking at the jobs, like the Raiders job

339
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 2: is the is the job where there the cupboards are empty,

340
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 2: the caroline or they excuse you. The Arizona job, it's

341
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 2: a mix. Like I thought they fought hard for Jonathan Gannon,

342
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 2: like they had running back injuries throughout the year, then

343
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 2: at the end of the season it just kind of

344
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: all just fell apart. I'm not sure that there's tons there.

345
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 2: It doesn't seem like Carler Murray's feature is in Arizona.

346
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: I don't know about Marvin Harrison's junior, Marvin Arison Junior's

347
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 2: future in Arizona. He's gotten off to a rough start

348
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 2: in his first two years, so I don't know if

349
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 2: that's really appealing. But when you have a defense like Cleveland, yeah, yeah,

350
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 2: I think that there there may be and you look

351
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 2: at that division, there may be more opportunities. But if

352
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 2: they really want to make Shaduur work, I think you

353
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 2: have to give Diana chance. Wow, she's Watty Belaio. So

354
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 2: I'm Dan Pyer. This is Fox Sports Radio. Jason Stewart's here,

360
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: coach of the Raiders, Cardinals, Browns, Falcons. We found out

361
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: last night. Tough day for some NFL head coaches, as

362
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 2: you heard from Isaac loh and cromb. But Manzi, we're

363
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: gonna power through.

364
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, We're gonna power it through. Sorry to those guys.

365
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 3: Pete Carroll's fine though, as I see him on my screen,

366
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 3: he's fine. I think he wanted out of there. He

367
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 3: was like, listen, if you don't fire me, I am

368
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 3: just gonna fire myself.

369
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 2: This is how I look at Pete Carroll. Your job

370
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 2: was to go in there and win right away. Not

371
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: only did he do that, not only did he not

372
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 2: plan for the future, he left the place in a

373
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: worse spot than it was. So he was a no brainer. Yeah,

374
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 2: out the door.

375
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 3: And with his history, it's like, like you said, we

376
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 3: wanted to change now right Like it's like you know

377
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 3: exactly who he is and what he brings to the

378
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 3: table and doesn't work.

379
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 2: I the Raiders took a risk. I mean he was

380
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 2: when you removed from coaching in Seattle, you know, up

381
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: there in Age. I heard they may be interested in

382
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 2: Dick van Dyke as the next head coach. I assume

383
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 2: have you heard those you hear those ms? I was

384
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 2: trying to think of an old guy living in Yes, yeah,

385
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 2: a month ago, Happy birthday.

386
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 7: It's the challenge, right, because you saying, Dick van Dyke,

387
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 7: you've already lost more than half our audience. I was thinking,

388
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 7: but I almost thinking George Burns, and that would have

389
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 7: really disconnected.

390
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 3: Oh he liked that one. You got him, You got him?

391
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 2: There's Yeah, I liked it. It was very good, very

392
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: good because he's he's and he's been gone long enough

393
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 2: where it's we're not like like we're not being insensitive

394
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 2: to his passing. Right, he was one hundred for fifty years?

395
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh good line, very good. I don't even know

396
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 4: if he got to a hundred, but he was old

397
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 4: for a long time. Let's go to the statman, Isaac

398
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 4: Lohenkron George Burns, how old was he when he died?

399
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 4: In When did he die?

400
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 6: Okay, he actually made it past a hundred. Okay, born

401
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 6: in January of eighteen ninety six, passed away in March

402
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 6: of nineteen ninety six. Well done, all right.

403
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 2: So twenty years. What day in January in eighteen ninety six.

404
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 6: January twentieth, so inauguration day. So I'm sure there was

405
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 6: a president inaugurated Andrew Jackson.

406
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 4: I know it wasn't William McKinley. It's pretty close.

407
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 6: No, you got it. Good old Billy McKinley.

408
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 3: Good job, good job, impress it.

409
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 4: He didn't make it very long, poor William McKinley. Yeah,

410
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 4: left stage left a few years.

411
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 6: I think he had a rough day at the train

412
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 6: station one day.

413
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, well great, great knowledge there the Raiders. How

414
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:44,239
Speaker 2: we got from Pete Carroll to President McKinley. It's what

415
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 2: we do here on Fox Sports Radio.

416
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,320

00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:48,840

431
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 2: actually just going to have you lead off the first

432
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: love of twenty twenty six.

433
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 7: Well, thank you, Dan. I haven't loved a sports story

434
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 7: like this in quite some time. I sent you you

435
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 7: and Masca text yesterday that you didn't respond to, But

436
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 7: that's no big deal. I was working, Yeah, that's fine.

437
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 7: I was openly rooting for Mitch Trubisky to not throw

438
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 7: an interception yesterday and finish the perfect season by the Jets,

439
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 7: and it happened, and I was so happy. Aaron Glenn,

440
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 7: to me, has been such an entertaining part of the season,

441
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 7: and it's looking like, if you're reading the tea, he's

442
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 7: going to keep his job. So that's good for us,

443
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 7: the people that work in sports talk content. It's good

444
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 7: that Aaron Glen's going to keep his job because remember

445
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 7: I O don't know eleven months ago, remember he provided

446
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 7: this at his opening press conference to any.

447
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 2: Players that's here.

448
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 4: Now put your seat belts on and get ready for

449
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 4: the ride. Put your seatbeltszone and get ready for the ride.

450
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 2: Listen.

451
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 4: There are going to be some challenges, but what challenges

452
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 4: becomes opportunity gets opportunity.

453
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: But here's what I do know.

454
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 4: We're the freaking New York Jets, so we're built.

455
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 5: For the now.

456
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 7: What the the listeners don't know is that I had

457
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 7: the editing department beep out the last part and what

458
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 7: he actually says is we aren't built for picks. We

459
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 7: aren't built for picks. By the way, courtesy to Sam

460
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 7: for dropping that one. I stole his line.

461
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 4: I was trying to pretend.

462
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 7: So anyways, my favorite story of the seasons has now

463
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 7: come full circle. I loved it. Thank you Aaron Gwen.

464
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 7: I love that from the weekend.

465
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: I'd also like to say Jason wanted to me to

466
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 2: jump off the ship of Aaron Glenn staying next year.

467
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 2: He actually tried to bully me a few weeks ago

468
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 2: in trying to move off of that and he it

469
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 2: was close, honestly it was. But in the end, I said,

470
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 2: Aaron Glenn stays. And again, since the last time that

471
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 2: I checked the stat Both the Cowboys, Titans, and Niners

472
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 2: each added interceptions, so the gap was zero and then

473
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 2: the next worst was six interceptions in the NFL.

474
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,719
Speaker 7: How hard is it like, It's almost like you have

475
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 7: to try to not fall into Yeah, there was an

476
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 7: interception yesterday. I think that went off of an offensive lineman.

477
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 7: It just fell into the stomach of a defensive lineman.

478
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 7: There's no skill to that. It was just so strained.

479
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 2: Drake Thomas's interception of brock Perty on the Christian McCaffrey

480
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 2: play on Saturday night. By the way, it leads me

481
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 2: to my love, I did love it. I'm not going

482
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 2: over with the Seahawks win. I think that they just

483
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 2: as well could be bounced in the divisional playoffs, especially

484
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 2: if the Rams come to town. If the Rams end

485
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 2: up beating the Panthers and that's the matchup in the

486
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: second round of the playoffs. But there was something great

487
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,479
Speaker 2: about seeing them go to San Francisco and take an

488
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 2: offense again. Brock Perty accounted for ten touchdowns in the

489
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 2: last two games. He had eight touchdown passes in two

490
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 2: rushing five in each of the games against the Colts

491
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: and the Bears. And I know they didn't have Trent Williams,

492
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 2: and that was a big part of it. Not lost

493
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 2: on me. But to see the defense just absolutely swarm

494
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: and take over and win in San Francisco and avenge

495
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 2: the loss from earlier in the season and to grab

496
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 2: the number one overall seed. As a Seahawks fan, it

497
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 2: was very, very satisfying on Saturday night. But again, it's

498
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant once told Ted Sobel, I'm sure to be

499
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 2: happy about job's not finished. When our boss texted me congratulations,

500
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: I had to use that meme. I said it yesterday

501
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 2: and it fell flat here, so I'm hoping that. But

502
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: I was happy on Saturday. But now there's other business.

503
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 2: But it was great to see the Seahawks top the Niners.

504
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

505
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 3: No, they convincingly won. It should have been twenty eight

506
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 3: to three.

507
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's like the Seahawks offense. They ran the

508
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 2: ball better than they had in previous situations. But it

509
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 2: has been a Seahawk thing and one of the reasons

510
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 2: why I think people don't buy into them because they

511
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 2: should have been by twenty three to three. However, you

512
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 2: wanted to put a bunch of situations that they let

513
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 2: go through their grasp and in the playoffs, you can't

514
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 2: have those.

515
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 7: Hopefully they can avoid them now. On Friday, we spent

516
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 7: some real estate. I forget if I think it was

517
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,719
Speaker 7: during the coveno in Rich hours on the fact that

518
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 7: Dan turned down Rich Davis's invite to go watch the

519
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 7: game on Saturday night with a bunch of people, A

520
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 7: few of them will be rooting for the Niners. So

521
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,679
Speaker 7: are you Are you very glad that you did not

522
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 7: join that party on Saturday night, that just sitting there

523
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 7: alone being able to watch every single play one.

524
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: Hundred because it would have been frustrating, especially too, like

525
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 2: if the forty nine er fans were cheering in the

526
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 2: fourth quarter where they had momentum up until that interception,

527
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: and if they would have scored, Like I don't know,

528
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 2: if the Seahawks win that game, if it's thirteen to ten,

529
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 2: the offense hadn't been doing a ton, forty nine ers

530
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: had seemed to find their you know, found their rhythm.

531
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 2: The amazing thing about what Seattle did was when they

532
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 2: then got the football is they did have a drive

533
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 2: that went the entire length of the field to kind

534
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 2: of take the air out of everything. But I would

535
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 2: not have enjoyed it, I would not have enjoyed the

536
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: comeback forty nine or cheers. I am so glad I

537
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 2: was at home. And I think I've told you this.

538
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 2: My son loves the animals of the NFL. Like if

539
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 2: there's two teams playing, he's good cheer for the animal

540
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 2: over anything else. He's on this Rams kick and it

541
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 2: really ticks me off, and I'm trying to tell him

542
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 2: to not cheer for the Rams, but he also considers

543
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: it kind of a farm animal, which, all right, whatever,

544
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: he doesn't like the forty nine ers because I was

545
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 2: at least able to convince him yes, And then he goes,

546
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 2: if the Rams play the forty nine ers, do we

547
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: cheer for the Rams? And I'm like, sure, yes, okay,

548
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 2: it's technically sheep. I guess yes, yeah, yeah, right, yeah,

549
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna fight. I haven't won an argument yet

550
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 2: in this four and a half years.

551
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 6: On a related story with our Mancy Bolanos having being

552
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 6: snubbed from being invited to this get together, Camino and

553
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 6: Rich will be in at the top of the hour,

554
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 6: will there be a confrontation?

555
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 3: They're dead to me, I'm not speaking to them.

556
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, I agree, yeah, like I didn't get invited. But

557
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 6: I'm actually not upset about that. I'm upset that they

558
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 6: did not invite.

559
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 3: You as you should be. No, no, no, they're dead to me.

560
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 3: They're dead to me. I may trip them as I

561
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 3: see them walk by.

562
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 4: Dan, you could have ultimately observed Rich observing his team

563
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 4: get the air squeezed out of him, which may have

564
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 4: been gratifying at the very end of it, maybe not fun.

565
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 2: Until that sounds really selfish, But I think every fan

566
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: should realize it. It's not about him. It's about me.

567
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was about me, It's true.

568
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 2: And and that's what it was about.

569
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 4: Your pleasure not richest pain, right, that's it?

570
00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 2: Yeah? Here, absolutely my joy rather joy. Yeah, pleasure kind

571
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 2: of hit weird. Hit your ear weird too.

572
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 4: Jason's trying to a pain for Yeah, I know, I know,

573
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 4: I know, I know where you're going.

574
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 2: I totally get it. But it did I guess it did?

575
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 5: It?

576
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 2: Did? It? Is the keat on? Am I sweating? Love

577
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: and hate? Yeah? Why are the windows fogging up? What's

578
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: what's going on here? Sam? All right? Sorry? Matzi? What

579
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 2: did you love from the weekend?

580
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 3: I'll keep it quick. Here what I loved about the

581
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 3: weekend is all the memes and gifts I saw of

582
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti after they beat Alabama, that video of him

583
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 3: walking up and down the inspection.

584
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 4: Inspecting the car after your son used it for the night.

585
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 3: But it's that's the best. That's a good one. But

586
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 3: all of those clever people, I wish I could have

587
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 3: thought of something clever. I'm like wondering, what could I say.

588
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 3: I'm doing, just like Kurt Signetti is up and down

589
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 3: so good inspection. I literally have been on social media

590
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 3: all weekend just to see what people are reposting with

591
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 3: that Kurt Signetti. Hilarious. Loved it, loved it. Keep pulling them.

592
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 4: Out, guys again.

593
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 2: I just love how college football was thought to be

594
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 2: built on the shoulders of all of these blue bloods,

595
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 2: if you will. And Indiana has become so much of

596
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 2: a story that I think they're now naturally becoming Manci's

597
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 2: college football team.

598
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 3: Naturally.

599
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 2: It's like starting to evolve, and it's truly one of

600
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 2: the best things that has happened to college football. And

601
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 2: is someone who is a fan of a school that

602
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 2: is a now rival of Indiana, I don't enjoy it

603
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 2: as much, but it's truly fascinating as a college football

604
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 2: fan to watch it to see how it's taken over,

605
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 2: honestly in such a positive way, like like we hate

606
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 2: transfer portal and people are celebrating, Hey, let who are

607
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 2: you landed on the transfer bort like you even know

608
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 2: they were three months ago. And it's completely taken over

609
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 2: college football in a good way.

610
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 3: It really has. And Kurt Signetti and Fernana Mendoza that

611
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 3: people are saying, he's the old guy in up and

612
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 3: then the kid is Banano Mendoza and there's it's exactly

613
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 3: what they are, complete opposite, you know. The old guy

614
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 3: is always like grumpy and then the kid is in

615
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 3: the background like like.

616
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 4: It's a good ying ying, so good y y whatever

617
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 4: it is. You balance the balance, the fung Schwei, the.

618
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: The gun, Pat McAfee. It's just so it was great.

619
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 3: Loved it.

620
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 2: I was sam, would you love from the weekend? Well?

621
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 4: I do love bowling, Mancey Bolanos and uh I was

622
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 4: There's you know, I don't do enough bowling in LA.

623
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 4: I've gone bowling like twice in the last couple of years,

624
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 4: once with Ryan Berschinger who works here, and for his birthday.

625
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 4: But it takes a lot to coax me out of

626
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 4: my apartment when I'm under the weather a little bit.

627
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 4: I just was gonna have some dinner, watch the Holiday Bowl,

628
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 4: go to bed, get some rest. But Moncey calls me

629
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 4: up at like seven, and she's like, hey, coming this

630
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 4: Friday night. So this is this was weekend love here,

631
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 4: so it still counts. So she she calls me up

632
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 4: at like seven, and I'm like exhausted. I'm like, oh,

633
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 4: my voice is crap. You know, I just wanted to

634
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 4: go to sleep. She's like, We're going in his place

635
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 4: right down the street, right down Ventura Boulevard, and it's

636
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 4: really like a ten minute drive for me. So I'm like, oh, bowling,

637
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 4: I don't bowl enough here. And you know, it's just

638
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 4: she coaxed me out of my apartment even though I

639
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 4: was kind of under the weather. I wasn't it was

640
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 4: my uh it was my Michael Jordan a bowling flu game.

641
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 4: I don't know, just to at least get me out

642
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 4: there and get me going. So we went, and uh

643
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 4: it was it was a lot of fun. I love bowling,

644
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 4: and so the only not a lot of things can

645
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 4: get me out on Friday night if I'm under the weather.

646
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 4: But Monci calling me to go bowling. I yelled at him,

647
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 4: was like, we need you saw like crap today. Still, well,

648
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 4: I worked. I'm not gonna lie. It was like speed bowling.

649
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 4: I worked up a sweat. Yeah, and I'm kind of

650
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 4: embarrassed to admit that, but I was sweating because we

651
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 4: were going so fast and we bowled so much in

652
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 4: two hours.

653
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if it's payback for

654
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: the non Caveno and Rich invite, but I think you're

655
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 2: even I don't think you guys have a reason to

656
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: be mad. You guys had your own bowling d.

657
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 3: This was not planned at all.

658
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 2: No, they never are.

659
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 3: They never are. I was gonna go bowling with just

660
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 3: the boyfriend, and then when we booked two hours, we

661
00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 3: were like, oh that's a long time.

662
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 4: So you just go back and forth between two people.

663
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 4: We need like a group.

664
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 3: The boyfriend I were at the bar drinking and then

665
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 3: we like booked a lane. I called him because he

666
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 3: lives down the street, and I called Brie because I

667
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 3: knew she was staying at a hotel down the street.

668
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 3: And I yelled at both of them to get out,

669
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 3: and I was like, I booked it in thirty minutes.

670
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 3: Get to the bar valley right now.

671
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 2: I was pouring rain.

672
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 4: I couldn't see the road, but I was like, okay,

673
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 4: I actually got here pretty quick. So I worked out

674
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 4: and then so I loved it. It was a great time.

675
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, not planning it worked out.

676
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 7: By the way, A great way to not go back

677
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 7: to back sickness. When you're recovering from a cold, go

678
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 7: to the bowling alley right, use the holes that other

679
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 7: people were used, and then you won't get sick again.

680
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 4: It's a perfect remedy. I was like, I've been dealing

681
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 4: with this chess cold for like a week. I've gone

682
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 4: to some of those German fested places in La Universal Studios. Yes,

683
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 4: German infested, so what German's there vacation But like I've

684
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 4: just like I've run the gamut of of the Petri dish.

685
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 4: So but you know what, we you got to live life.

686
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 4: So it was great time Friday night, all right, top that,

687
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 4: Isaac Low and crown with what you love from that?

688
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 2: Isaac.

689
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 6: I can't, There's there's no way. I just am kind

690
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 6: of contemplating in my mind some sort of Monsey bowl.

691
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 6: Lanio's endorsement deal for Bowling Alley. Yes, where you're come here,

692
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 6: come bowling wrong, kill you.

693
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 3: That's literally with me on the phone. I didn't even give.

694
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 2: I love it.

695
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 6: Well, we'll have our marketing department get on that stat Yes,

696
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 6: you're right, I cannot compete. Uh, it's merely Miles Garrett

697
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 6: breaking the NFL all time sack record for the Cleveland

698
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,959
Speaker 6: brown So much respect for him for breaking the record,

699
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 6: especially considering the relatively low amount of pass attempts by

700
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 6: the Browns opponents compared to other teams, which means that

701
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 6: he has a lot fewer opportunities than typical two the quarterback,

702
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 6: and the guy still broke the record. I would encourage everybody.

703
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 6: After the show on YouTube, they put together a couple

704
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 6: of videos on there the NFL of Miles garrett off

705
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 6: season conditioning routine and how he has a whole team

706
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 6: of specialists for every aspect of his training, nutrition, massage,

707
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 6: tissue recovery, et cetera, et cetera. They have this one drill.

708
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 6: They have an influencer who's like the only influencer that

709
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 6: I actually think is cool at our DC World one

710
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 6: and he goes through a workout with Miles Garrett, and

711
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,280
Speaker 6: as part of the drill, Miles Garrett is laterally pulling

712
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 6: a sled, so he's not going up and down, he's

713
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 6: going laterally back and forth. And he's so strong he's

714
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 6: literally pulling this guy with his body weight on the sled.

715
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 6: So hats off to Miles Garrett.

716
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: Quite the record. I already used it my love, but

717
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 2: if I had another. I love how the Bengals accepted

718
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 2: that with class yesterday. Let's get to our hate for

719
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 2: the week end. Maybe that is Isaac Longcron's hate. Isaac,

720
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: I'll throw it back to you.

721
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 6: That's exactly what my hate was. So the Bengals, Zach

722
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:15,760
Speaker 6: Taylor and Jamar Chase were upset because the officials stopped

723
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 6: play after Miles Garrett's record breaking sack. They're down seventeen

724
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 6: to twelve in the fourth quarter about five minutes ago

725
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 6: they stopped the game, and Zach Taylor and Jamar Chase

726
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 6: are complaining. Taylor says he was not informed of it

727
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 6: before the game, which is understandable, but he had his

728
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 6: undies in a bundle because he wanted to go with

729
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 6: a quick tempo and not sub after the sack, and

730
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 6: that allowed the Browns the opportunity to match up with

731
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 6: the game stoppage when they wanted to go quick tempo,

732
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 6: and among other things, he said, we're fighting for our

733
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 6: lives here. We're playing for our lives here. And I'm like, dude,

734
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 6: First of all, that's essentially an extra timeout for your team.

735
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 6: You're down seventeen to twelve or five minutes ago, and

736
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 6: it'll be another thing if you were in playoff contention.

737
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 6: But come on, you've long since been eliminated from the playoffs.

738
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 6: It's an all time NFL record. It's not like a

739
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 6: guy moving into seventh place in franchise history on the

740
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,959
Speaker 6: all time passes defense list. They only stop the game

741
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 6: if you break a prominent NFL record. So in that situation,

742
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 6: saying that you're playing for our lives here, no soft,

743
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 6: soft soft and unlikable.

744
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 3: Yes, swaft you and Jamar Chase for saying that.

745
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: What did you hate, Monci?

746
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 3: What did I hate?

747
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: Well?

748
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 3: I hated that the Clippers lost to the Celtics, but

749
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 3: more importantly, I hated that Derek Jones Junior, who just

750
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 3: came back from an injury that he suffered against the

751
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,439
Speaker 3: Boston Celtics, where Jalen Brown dives for a ball, goes

752
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 3: into his knee, and the exact same thing happens with

753
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 3: Peyton Pritchard who dives for a ball, goes towards the

754
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 3: knee of the same me for Derek Jones Junior, and

755
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 3: now he's out. That's what I.

756
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 2: Hated, deja vous all over again.

757
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 3: With the same thing. It was like, you put the

758
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 3: plays back to back and you're like, how how does

759
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 3: this happen against the same team teaching that?

760
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 2: Right, they teach it's a Celtics thing. It's a journey, right,

761
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: those darn Celtics.

762
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 3: I'm I was so mad. I was so the minute

763
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 3: I saw it. I said, he's out. He's out again,

764
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 3: same same knee, same injury, out again.

765
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I hated, and I hated that

766
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard played well yesterday because it took a little

767
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 2: bit of shine off of the Philip Rivers experiment. And

768
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 2: that makes you wonder maybe the cult should have just

769
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 2: gone with Riley Leonard over the last couple of weeks.

770
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 2: I hope it didn't take away from Philip Rivers, but

771
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 2: I guess in a way, Kudos to Riley Leonard for

772
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 2: competing and playing well against the Houston Texans. He did

773
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 2: fill in for Daniel Jones and played well in that

774
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 2: loss to Jacksonville a few weeks ago. But we had

775
00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 2: loved Philip Rivers over the previous three weeks. Unfortunately they

776
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 2: went oh three, Riley Leonard held his own and then

777
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 2: some against Houston. Maybe they should have just played him

778
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 2: those three games. I don't know. I didn't wish any

779
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: ill will for Riley Leonard, but to see how well

780
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 2: he played, then you're thinking, like, all right, maybe they

781
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 2: shouldn't have gone to Philip Rivers.

782
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 3: Was Riley Leonard sorry injured me?

783
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 2: He was?

784
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 3: He was.

785
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 2: He got hurt in that Jacksonville game where he was

786
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 2: questionable to play. So you bring in Philip Rivers, you

787
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: don't know if he's going to be able to play

788
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:32,280
Speaker 2: against Seattle. He ultimately was ready to play against Seattle,

789
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 2: but they had brought Philip Rivers in, and when you

790
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 2: bring him in, you're not gonna be like, hey, you're

791
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 2: in a quarterback competition. You give him the job.

792
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 7: But yes, by the way, Ryan Clark, who was the

793
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 7: most outspoken against Philip Rivers over the last couple of weeks,

794
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 7: he was taking victory WAPs yesterday after that was he

795
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 7: kind of the opposite of what you're feeling right now?

796
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but hey, I loved what Philip Rivers gave

797
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 2: us and Riley Leonard hopefully le have a long career

798
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Yeah, all right, Iowa, Sam, would you hate?

799
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 4: I think j should go first because mine sort of related,

800
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 4: but I don't want to step on his. He why

801
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 4: don't we go to Jason first?

802
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 7: Sam doesn't want to Sam up?

803
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 2: Thank you.

804
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 7: It's interesting the spins on Press your Luck. I think

805
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 7: we've taught Sam Well. He's stopping himself from Sam and up.

806
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 7: It's pretty amazing.

807
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 2: Sam Well.

808
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 4: That was my Spanish name in the Spanish Calart, Samuell.

809
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 7: I've often said on this show that I care less

810
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 7: about what happens in sports than I do about how

811
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 7: it's covered. And this is what I mean. Uh, the

812
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 7: Steelers win last night on the missfield goal by what's

813
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 7: the name loot poot poop, and uh, everyone goes nuts

814
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 7: about Mike to Rico's call. Now, most of it was positive.

815
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 7: How to Rico's amazing he got wrapped up in a

816
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 7: great emotion, and then there was a sub section of people,

817
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 7: dare I say, Sam superstitious people, Ravens fans who did

818
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,919
Speaker 7: not appreciate Mike to Rico saying this before the kick.

819
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 2: They went around the country and spoke to a lot

820
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 2: of kickers who are.

821
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 7: Coming out, and they decided Tyler Luke was made of

822
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 7: the right stuff for moments like this.

823
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 6: He now has a chance to win the division for the.

824
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 7: Ravens the final playoff the regular season for the final.

825
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 5: Spot in the playoffs.

826
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 2: Tyler Luke from forty.

827
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 6: Four still good.

828
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 4: I'm the feelers, I'm a jacket to the north.

829
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,399
Speaker 7: Now you notice Mike has set up the kick by

830
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 7: saying they went out and got this guy. He's built

831
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 7: for moments like this, And I hated that moment for

832
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 7: Ravens fans. I'm the guy who's sitting there on my

833
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 7: couch saying, did Terarico just say that? That's the last

834
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 7: thing you want to hear if you're a Ravens fan

835
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 7: for a basically just.

836
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 2: An easy scene. Does he missed? Everything is just easy

837
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 2: as it goes, just throwing along, just like the Holy Water.

838
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 2: And then when they showed the clip, it was the

839
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 2: wrong end zone. This was the kick. This was the

840
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 2: end zone. Now there was a clip that surfaced later

841
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 2: on of the priest putting the holy water in that

842
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 2: end zone, but it wasn't the ones shown on NBC,

843
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 2: and I think Tarico realized that midkick that his feel

844
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 2: good story with the video that they were showing did

845
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 2: not add up. Some people caught to it online. It's

846
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 2: an open ended stadium, so you know, one end over

847
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 2: the other, and he was doing it in the far

848
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 2: end zone at the one that they were showing on NBC. Yeah,

849
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: maybe maybe not a good night for NBC in that

850
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers Ravens game. Tough one for Melissa Stark, tough

851
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 2: one for Mike Trico and Iowa Sam wrap it up

852
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 2: with it.

853
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 4: Whatever is to blame for Tyler Loops miss I do hate.

854
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 4: I do hate kickers having to deal with moments like that.

855
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 4: And Chris Boswell was just in that position, you know,

856
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 4: of whatever, ten minutes prior, five minutes prior, and it's

857
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: just such a kicking is such a weird thing, like

858
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 4: it's a specialty. You're you're treated differently, You're you're sort

859
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 4: of like a different section of the football team, and

860
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 4: you're like the guys always say you got one job,

861
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 4: but there is something odds about a sequence of snapping

862
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 4: the ball, holding it, setting it, and kicking it through

863
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 4: the uprights. It it can things can go sideways, literally,

864
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,879
Speaker 4: and no matter if you're nine of ten or ten

865
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 4: of ten from that distance through the season or whatever.

866
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,800
Speaker 4: It's just like, I feel for these guys because obviously

867
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 4: they want to make it, but it's like it's like, Okay,

868
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 4: you're gonna sign this contract. Here, we're gonna give you

869
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 4: ten million dollars. And then I signed my name or

870
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 4: whatever someone signs their name. They didn't dot the lowercase J,

871
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 4: and they say, oh, it's invalid. Now you did everything

872
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 4: up until this point, but you didn't do that one

873
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 4: little bit, the little whether it's Boswell's extra point missed

874
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 4: or the field goal. And you were like, and then like,

875
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 4: how does Isaiah likely feel after that after making that

876
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 4: amazing catch to put them in position? And so like

877
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 4: I saw John Hartblock consoling Tyler Loop after the game

878
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 4: on the in the tunnel, and I just like, I

879
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 4: hate it. I feel for him because you know, these guys,

880
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 4: they just kick over and over hundreds, they's got thousands

881
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 4: of practice kicks and then it goes it goes like this.

882
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, for you. You were in a lose lose situation because

883
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 2: if Loop makes it, you're feeling bad for Chris Boswell.

884
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.

885
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 2: So there, Yeah, there was two kickers. There were sports.

886
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:18,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's sports.

887
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 2: Baby.

888
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 3: They literally showed Chris Boswell right before the kick on

889
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,720
Speaker 3: the sideline because he knew. He was like, they're about

890
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 3: to win.

891
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,439
Speaker 4: And they have just cast us to gut. His guts were,

892
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 4: you know, all wrenched up.

893
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 3: So he also went from like agony to ecstasy too,

894
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 3: and then poor Tyler Loop went the other way.

895
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: All right. There it is our first edition in twenty

909
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 2: happening on a busy day in the NFL, and I

910
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: know it's probably the worst of the three hundred and

911
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 2: sixty five for gms and front offices around the NFL.

912
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,480

914
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 2: of the emotions of what these front offices are dealing

915
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 2: with today. Tom, Happy New Year, I should say, And

916
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 2: now to the bad news. It is Black Monday in

917
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 2: the NFL. What is this like around the National Football League?

918
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, Happy New Year to you guys too. Yeah, always

919
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 5: a very difficult day. I've been on all sides of

920
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,799
Speaker 5: this before. You know, it's tough. When you're at the

921
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 5: GM and you're working with your head coach. You're working

922
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 5: side by side every single day, every hour. You end

923
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 5: up spending more time with the with the head coach

924
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 5: they do with your own family and your wife throughout

925
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 5: the fall, so you know, you're working constantly with that

926
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 5: person and then all of a sudden the season stops.

927
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 5: You know, usual if you don't make the playoffs. Everything.

928
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 5: It's like the train that comes to a whole and

929
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 5: then if you have to make a decision and make it,

930
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 5: make a change. It's difficult as a GM if you're

931
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 5: letting your head coach go because you know, look, you're

932
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 5: part of this, You're part of the reason why the

933
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 5: team isn't doing as well as it is. But there's

934
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,320
Speaker 5: certainly situations where maybe a new voice is needed, something refreshing,

935
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 5: a different approach, and you move on. But like every

936
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 5: head coach, every GM, when you take the job, you

937
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 5: know nine to nine percent of time it's not going

938
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 5: to end the way you want it to end. And

939
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 5: we all know that going in. It's a very difficult business.

940
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 5: It's a pressurized business, but it's what we love to

941
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 5: do and you love the challenge, you love the competitive

942
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 5: competitiveness part of it, but you know this day is

943
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 5: coming for everybody at some point. It's just the nature

944
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 5: of the business.

945
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 3: One team that decided they needed a new voice was

946
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns. Were you surprised that they parted ways

947
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 3: with Kevin Stefanski. Do you think there was something in

948
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 3: particular that caused them to part ways with Kevin Stefanski.

949
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he's an he's an excellent coach. He's

950
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 5: he's shown that. I mean he's you know, if you've

951
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 5: one place for it for six years, I means you're

952
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 5: doing something right. And he's a really outstanding offensive mind.

953
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 5: He's shown that and he can lead a football He

954
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 5: won't be out of work for long, I can tell

955
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 5: you that. But I think, like a lot of organizations,

956
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 5: sometimes it's just time for a fresh, new approach. Obviously,

957
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 5: they are a team that's going through a lot of

958
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 5: transition with their roster coming off that the Deshaun Watson

959
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 5: trade where they just lost a lot of assets, not

960
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 5: only draft picks, but but a lot of cash and

961
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 5: cap space. So if a team in transition, the defense

962
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 5: is actually really strong. But you know, they didn't played

963
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 5: expectations this year, and you know the head coach usually

964
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 5: takes the fall for that. But I think he'll definitely

965
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 5: if he wants interviews, I think he'll have plenty. I

966
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,760
Speaker 5: think he's shown a lot. I love his leadership, Abilly.

967
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 5: I love how he handled this year. This has not

968
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 5: been an easy year for the Browns. He handled a

969
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 5: publicly extremely well. Even it's the press conference yesterday that

970
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 5: I was watching just handled everything. That's what you need

971
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 5: as a head coach and someone a leader that can

972
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,759
Speaker 5: handle adversity. He's shown he can do that, so I

973
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 5: think he's gonna be okay in the end.

974
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,919
Speaker 2: Tom Telasco joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. She's

975
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 2: Monzy Blanios. I'm Dan Bayer, Tom the former GM of

976
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 2: the Chargers and Raiders. So I understand the sensitivity with

977
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 2: this question from the move that was made in Las

978
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 2: Vegas today, But what are some of the challenges for

979
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 2: a Raiders organization who now will have the first overall

980
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 2: pick of the draft coming up this spring? What are

981
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,720
Speaker 2: the challenges that you face? I guess in that building

982
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 2: and trying to make this team a playoff contender.

983
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,759
Speaker 5: Look, there's a lot of good resources there and they

984
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 5: just have to get to the point where you get

985
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 5: some stability. I know they haven't had that in a

986
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 5: number of years. I do believe at this point, and

987
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 5: I know the fans will probably get tired of hearing

988
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 5: of this, but I think at this point they're going

989
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,879
Speaker 5: to get the right person with the right alignment going

990
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 5: into next year and any built from there. You've got

991
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 5: the first round pick it's going to be a quarterback.

992
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,680
Speaker 5: That's the person they've struggled to find in clearly when

993
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,759
Speaker 5: I was there, as far as a young quarterback to

994
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 5: build around. But you have to get some stability. And

995
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 5: it's been the last three drafts the team that's drafted

996
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 5: for head coaches that are no longer there, so this

997
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 5: will be the fourth one. So that kind of stunts

998
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 5: the rebuild because you're drafting players for a certain head

999
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 5: coach and a certain scheme and then all of a

1000
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 5: sudden the scheme changes or the philosophy changes, and that's

1001
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 5: changed for four consecutive years. I do feel like at

1002
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 5: this point there get the point where they're all aligned

1003
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,720
Speaker 5: moving forward, to have a quarterback, to have some pieces

1004
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 5: on offense that the offensive line, they get Colton Miller back,

1005
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 5: they get JPJ. Jackson, Powers Johnson back, They're going to

1006
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 5: have some players. It's going to take a little bit

1007
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 5: of time, and I know nobody wants patience, but for

1008
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 5: the next head coach, there are some pieces there to

1009
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 5: work around. But I know it's just been a long

1010
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:47,839
Speaker 5: haul for everybody there.

1011
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,359
Speaker 3: Out of all, out of all of the teams looking

1012
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 3: for a head coach, which one do you think seems

1013
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 3: the most appealing.

1014
00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 5: Oh, that's a tough question. Look, there's only thirty through

1015
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 5: these jobs. They all have their positives, whether people you

1016
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,880
Speaker 5: know see it or not. But obviously you want to

1017
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,960
Speaker 5: look for a job if you already have a quarterback

1018
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 5: in place, like the Giants had with Jackson Dirt, you

1019
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 5: know that's gonna be the appealing part of it. That's

1020
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 5: the hardest piece to find is the franchise quarterback. The

1021
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,799
Speaker 5: Giants have that with Jackson Dirt. They have a really

1022
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 5: good front office with Joe Shane and Kevin Abrams and

1023
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 5: Tim McDonald, so they have some stability and some experience there,

1024
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 5: and they had some pieces. But their defense has players.

1025
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,879
Speaker 5: I can't quite figure out why they hadn't didn't play

1026
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 5: as well as they should have this year, and that's

1027
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:32,919
Speaker 5: something they're gonna have to work through. And that's gonna

1028
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 5: be a big part of the interview process is what's

1029
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 5: the plan for the defense as well? Not only Jackson Dart,

1030
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,160
Speaker 5: but how do we get some of these talented defensive

1031
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,799
Speaker 5: players that play to their abilities. But New York's a

1032
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 5: big market, they have a quarterback that'd be a really

1033
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 5: interesting job for head coach.

1034
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 2: Tom deelasco joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. My

1035
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 2: question now shifts not from the teams that are looking

1036
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 2: for coaches, but teams that are looking to advance in

1037
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 2: the playoffs, and specifically about the Philadelphia Eagles, because they

1038
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 2: obviously made a decision yesterday to rest their starters. They

1039
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 2: ended up being the three seed, but they got some

1040
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 2: help from the Lions and beating the Bears, but the

1041
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 2: Egles didn't take care of their end of the bit,

1042
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 2: so they're gonna end up being the three seed. How

1043
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 2: much is the general manager in that conversation with a

1044
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 2: coach on how to approach week eighteen? What approaches did

1045
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,839
Speaker 2: you like when you were in that seat if Week

1046
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 2: eighteen mattered or maybe didn't matter for a team that

1047
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 2: was going into the playoffs. What's the GM's role in

1048
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 2: those sort of discussions.

1049
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 5: It's certainly an organizational decision that you would sit down

1050
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,360
Speaker 5: with the head coach and discuss it and certainly be

1051
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 5: a sounding board for the head coach. And I've been

1052
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 5: through a situation before, and I gotta say most gms

1053
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 5: would rather go on a side of the rest and

1054
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 5: not putting players out there that could with risk the injury,

1055
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 5: because at this point of the year, if one of

1056
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 5: your main starters goes down, there's nowhere to go. Pass

1057
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 5: the trade deadline, there's obviously no free agents in the street.

1058
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 5: They're going to come in and start for you. So

1059
00:50:57,520 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 5: as a GM you're you're always worried about that, and

1060
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 5: usually the head hoas is more worried about well. I

1061
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 5: don't want to get rusty, but I will say I've

1062
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 5: seen teams do it both ways. There's no one single

1063
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 5: way to do it. I've always been on the more side.

1064
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 5: If you have a chance to get players some resk

1065
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 5: and pull away the risk of getting hurt in that

1066
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 5: last game, that doesn't mean anything. That's the way to go.

1067
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:18,719
Speaker 5: There's rather teams that have gone the other way and say,

1068
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,760
Speaker 5: he look, we need to keep playing to stay sharp,

1069
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 5: like the Rams did the other day. I think each

1070
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 5: situation is unique. I think for the Eagles this works

1071
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 5: for them, and they've played a lot of games the

1072
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 5: last couple of years, so I do think just trying

1073
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 5: to get some fresh lays going into playoffs, but don't

1074
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 5: play anybody anywhere. I don't think they're worried about who

1075
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,120
Speaker 5: they played, So I was I was fine with the decision.

1076
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 3: Is there any team that is in the playoffs right

1077
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 3: now that has surprised you. I'm looking at the Jaguars

1078
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 3: and how they ended the season on an eight game

1079
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 3: winning streak. You know, any team like the Jaguars or

1080
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,880
Speaker 3: another team that surprises you, well.

1081
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,759
Speaker 5: I think the first I mean the Jaguars jump out immediately,

1082
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:57,920
Speaker 5: and just how they've played the last points and a half,

1083
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 5: which is the most important part of the season. But

1084
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 5: I have been impressed with it with their head coach,

1085
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,640
Speaker 5: how they've handled the whole situation and just how he's

1086
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,680
Speaker 5: handled even even Trevor Lawrence with the inconsistencies of what

1087
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 5: he's He's shown some really high highs, but he also

1088
00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 5: had the low of the lows. But he's really even

1089
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 5: out of play and played at a high level. They've

1090
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 5: turned that around quickly, And I think if you're a

1091
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 5: team right now you're looking for a head coach and

1092
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 5: you look at what the Jaguars have done, like what

1093
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 5: the Patriots did, he kind of gives you some hope

1094
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 5: that you know, these are not This isn't like baseball.

1095
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,920
Speaker 5: We have three or four and five year rebuilds and turnarounds.

1096
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 5: Like you can do it quickly.

1097
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 2: Now.

1098
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 5: Obviously those two teams I mentioned already have franchise quarterbacks

1099
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 5: that are young. But I've been really impressed with the Jaguars,

1100
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,719
Speaker 5: you know, their defense and how aggressive they've been, how

1101
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 5: they create turnovers. I'm sure everybody's gonna be picking the

1102
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 5: Bills in this game because Jacksonville. You know, as Sean

1103
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 5: Payton said, you know, it's a small market and they're

1104
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 5: not on national TV as much, but they've got this

1105
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 5: home game for a reason. They're really strong on both

1106
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 5: sides of the ball, and they're a really interesting football

1107
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 5: team for the playoffs.

1108
00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 2: I got one last one for you, Tom telasco joining

1109
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 2: us here on Fox Sports Radio. The Falcons, a lot

1110
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 2: of things are open. Terry Fott knows out or he

1111
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,880
Speaker 2: Morris dismissed last night as head coach. It seems like

1112
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 2: Matt Ryan has a sort of role there. Would you

1113
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 2: look at the Falcons situation as one that is appealing

1114
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 2: because you could do coach GM sort of deal the

1115
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:21,719
Speaker 2: quarterback situation. You do have Michael Pennick's junior there, but

1116
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 2: he's coming off of his knee injury. How do you

1117
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 2: assess what Atlanta has done after dismissing both GM and

1118
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:27,240
Speaker 2: head coach.

1119
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 5: Well, it's gonna be a lot of change. You know,

1120
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 5: I've been around a lot of search firms. I've never

1121
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 5: seen it before. We have two different search firms looking concurrently.

1122
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:40,759
Speaker 5: And even when they brought in a consultants to kind

1123
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 5: of audit the football operations, you kind of knew where

1124
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 5: that was going to go because I can never see

1125
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 5: a consulting from coming in to look at football operations

1126
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 5: and going back to the owner saying, hey, everything's great.

1127
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:52,439
Speaker 5: Just kind of keep going.

1128
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 2: Sure, you know that's not going to happen.

1129
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 5: There's going to be major change, and there's a major

1130
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 5: change now between not only GM and head coach but

1131
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,920
Speaker 5: also resident as far as moving Rich McKay into a

1132
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 5: different role. Rich McKay is outstanding of what he does,

1133
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 5: but he's gonna guess he's gonna take on a different role.

1134
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 5: So so I guess you have a blank canvas there

1135
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 5: to start fresh. They do have some talent on offense,

1136
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 5: but there's a lot of questions at the quarterback position. Now.

1137
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 5: They've put a lot of assets into it, but right

1138
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,239
Speaker 5: now you've got Kirk Cousins, who you know, who knows

1139
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 5: he may retire, but he's up there in age, and

1140
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,720
Speaker 5: you got Michael Penks coming off of major knee injury

1141
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 5: who's had durabillity derbilly issues going back to college. So

1142
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 5: that is certainly an uncertain situation. It's the most important position,

1143
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,359
Speaker 5: but you're walking into a team that has some talent

1144
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 5: on both sides of the ball, and it's you know,

1145
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,160
Speaker 5: a clean slate to work with with a GM a

1146
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 5: head coach, and you know wherever the president's going to be.

1147
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,680
Speaker 5: I've heard great things about Matt Ryan, So I guess

1148
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:45,479
Speaker 5: what we shall see.

1149
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,960
Speaker 2: Did you like draft cams? Because I feel that's what

1150
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 2: got Terry font knows we've seen over the last twenty

1151
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 2: four hours him explaining to Arthur Blank why they took

1152
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 2: Michael Pennock junior. Did you like the draft cam when

1153
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 2: you were in the hot seat as.

1154
00:54:56,560 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 5: A GM honestly, not really, but it was it was

1155
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,320
Speaker 5: a two way street because look, if you want to

1156
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,120
Speaker 5: get something back to your fans, they kind of show

1157
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 5: them what goes on in the draft room. And there

1158
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 5: was just a lot of a lot of hunger see

1159
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 5: how things are done, how the decisions are made. So

1160
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 5: whether it was recording the phone call to the player

1161
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 5: drafting to having a camera and a microphone in there.

1162
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 5: I kind of got used to it. I was old school.

1163
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:21,399
Speaker 5: I came up in the Bill Polly and he would

1164
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:23,440
Speaker 5: never have a camera in the draft room. I had

1165
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 5: to change and evolve, and I did. But sure comfortable.

1166
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 5: They always say, hey, don't worry about it. You won't

1167
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:30,360
Speaker 5: even know what's in there. So yeah, that's part of

1168
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 5: the problem. I don't even know it's on. God knows

1169
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 5: what I'm going to do. So but look, it's part

1170
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,680
Speaker 5: of the NFL nowadays, and I think it's something to

1171
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 5: get back to your fancy just for content. But look, yeah,

1172
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 5: this is the downside to it. They see it all,

1173
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 5: but that's part of being a GM.

1174
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 2: Great stuff, Tom, We appreciated. Best of luck in twenty

1175
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 2: twenty six. Enjoy the NFL playoffs. We'll talk to you

1176

Speaker 5: Sounds good. Thanks for both you. Take care.

1178
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 2: Tom Telasco joining us here at Fox Sports Radio. She's

1179
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,640
Speaker 2: Manzi Blaio, So I'm Dan Bio. Let's go to the

1180
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,399
Speaker 2: news deck. News desk, guys. A glowing cron joining us.

1181
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 6: An odd situation involving New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson.

1182
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:10,759
Speaker 6: He revealed today that he tore his hamstring prior to

1183
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,799
Speaker 6: Week two of the regular season. He would start in

1184
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 6: two more games after that and appear in three additional games.

1185
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:23,960
Speaker 6: Of course, NFL teams are supposed to, you know, disclose injuries. However,

1186
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:28,400
Speaker 6: Wilson tweeted on social media a short time ago and

1187
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,800
Speaker 6: I quote not the Giant's fault. They didn't know because

1188
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 6: I didn't want to tell anyone because of the circumstances.

1189
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,440
Speaker 6: I just had to play through it to try and

1190
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 6: go ball. Thought we were going to win that wild,

1191
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 6: crazy game unquote. So apparently, kudos to Russell Wilson for

1192
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 6: successfully hiding a torn.

1193
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:54,279
Speaker 2: Ham stringing yeah, Sam and Jason.

1194
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,960
Speaker 4: Listener tell anybody.

1195
00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 3: On his feet standy novation for the former Seahawk.

1196
00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 2: Yet he was able to climb up probably for uh

1197
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:10,360
Speaker 2: for four pieces of scaffolding to be there on New

1198
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,320
Speaker 2: Year's Eve with Siarra on UH with Ryan Seacrest on stage,

1199

Speaker 2: all with the torn hamstring, please clap.

00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 3: I didn't tell them.

1208
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 2: I didn't tell him. I'm sure Brian Davills like great.

1209
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,000
Speaker 2: I had a one legged quarterback out at all time.

1210
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 2: Now I don't have a job.

1211
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 4: Ye, unbelievable. This guy, seriously, this guy.

1212
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 3: So he tore it in that overtime game? Is that

1213
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 3: what it is?

1214
00:57:57,920 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 7: That?

1215
00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 4: What it is?

1216
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 6: He tore it during the week before for the week

1217
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 6: two game.

1218
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 2: Okay, so he threw for four hundred and fifty yards

1219
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 2: on one leg on one leg and then didn't then

1220
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 2: couldn't do anything else the rest of the season.

1221
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:12,680
Speaker 7: But why is it a story? Why has the NFL

1222
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 7: been informed of this? Like why is this a thing?

1223
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 2: Well, because he would need to be reported on the

1224
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:22,200
Speaker 2: injury report. But Russell Wilson, which I don't know how

1225
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 2: many of us actually believe he tours hamstring, which I

1226
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 2: that's part of the problem as well. He's now coming

1227
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 2: out and saying what a great guy he was by

1228
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 2: not telling anyone he was hurt and by the way,

1229
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 2: don't blame the Giants.

1230
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 6: So he revealed it this morning during you know, locker

1231
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 6: room clean out day. Then when the media got a

1232
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 6: hold of it, they're like, wait a minute, this is

1233
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 6: kind of this should be investigated because you're literally supposed

1234
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 6: to report injuries. And then after that he issued that

1235
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 6: dosha Ok.

1236
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Russell Wilson did no one any favors except

1237
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:56,919
Speaker 2: himself today, truly, like that's what he did. He made

1238
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,400
Speaker 2: himself look better, like he played hurt well.

1239
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 4: He also he also makes himself look kind of like, oh,

1240
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,320
Speaker 4: I wasn't healthy when I was playing, Like I'll be

1241
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:05,240
Speaker 4: healthy in the future.

1242
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:08,760
Speaker 2: Maybe that aids Russell Wilson. It does no good for

1243
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 2: the Giants. But but do you really think that it's

1244
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 2: the hamstring why he's stunk. He hasn't been good for

1245
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 2: four years. It's not the hamstring. It's Russell Wilson that's

1246
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 2: the issue. But hey, let's make it about me. Went

1247
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 2: in doubt and make it about me. That's the Russell

1248
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 2: Wilson motto. All on Russell Wilson's hamstring tour. But did

1249
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 2: you did your chair fall apart? My chair broke well,

1250
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:38,400
Speaker 2: the arm did I don't know chairs hamstring break or tear.

1251
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 3: Literally, that's the hamstring of them.

1252
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 2: Apparently this has been broken since week two and until

1253
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 2: it just fell apart today
