I'm currently in Houston. I was on 13 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 3: the West coast, but I have some family members that 14 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 3: were impacted by some of the stuff that took place 15 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 3: with the hurricane. 16 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: But it's all good, good. 17 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 2: I'm happy. I was worried about yowhere, about all my 18 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: friends here, my family friends at Fox Sports Radio. You know, 19 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 2: we lost power here where I live only for about 20 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 2: two hours, but about eighty thousand people in the Tri 21 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: state area. I'm talking about Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio lost 22 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: power for a long long time, and the water was bad. 23 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: I mean still rainy, has been rainny here since Thursday. 24 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: But the winds were ridiculous. I mean they knocked over 25 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 2: trees and whatever it may be. But everybody I know 26 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 2: right now, thank goodness, is safe. So that's great. So 27 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 2: we move on right now. And I was worried about 28 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: the Bengals game today locally. Was it playing in North 29 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 2: Carolina playing Charlotte. But I guess everything's a goal because 30 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: I know North Carolina got hit pretty good. 31 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: Did you hit pretty good? 32 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 3: I mean you got ravaged like some of the nice 33 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 3: areas if you ever go to North Carolina, ash Feld 34 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 3: is known for the builtmore and all the stuff that 35 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 3: goes along around there is scenic, it's. 36 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: Picturesque, all of that. That area has been hit really 37 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: really hard. 38 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: Flooding, lots of water, lots of damage. So praying for 39 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 3: the people out there. But yeah, I was surprised to 40 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: see Carolina still up and going. 41 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: The Panthers are on schedule to play. 42 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: Right I tell you what. I hate to bring this 43 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: up list, get it out of the way right early. 44 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: What's going on with the tar heels? They were up 45 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: over Duke Dukes now five. I know they lose twenty 46 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: one to twenty. I'm going nuts. I said the package 47 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: this week to Matt Brown, the football who you love dearly. 48 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: I sent them some recruits. I gave about twenty five 49 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: thirty names. I said, Matt, please, And people are telling me, 50 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: don't waste your time sending the package to Mac because 51 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 2: he won't be there next year. Tell me please. I 52 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: love the man. I don't want it to go. 53 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: No, I don't want him to go either. 54 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 3: Like after last week's game, I texted him, we had 55 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: a little exchange. I think what you have is like 56 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: at the end of every great coach's run, like the 57 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 3: losses are harder for them. And last week's lost to 58 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 3: James Madison was really hard for coach Brown, and he 59 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: talked about in the locker room. Hey guys, if it's me, 60 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 3: I'll step away. Then you come back and you play 61 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 3: the rivalry game and the ribbery game against Duke. For anyone, 62 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 3: everyone knows that Caroline Duke is a big robbery. They 63 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: always talk about it basketball, but from a football standpoint, 64 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 3: it's even more kind of bitter and contentious. Going all 65 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 3: the way back to nineteen eighty nine my freshman year 66 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: when Steve Spurry was there my freshman year, Steve Spurr year, 67 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: and the Duke Blue Devils one to acc. They beat 68 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 3: us forty one to zero, and at the end of 69 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: the game, instead of shaking hands, they ran past us 70 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: and took a picture under our score board with forty 71 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: one zero and they circulated that picture. That was their picture. 72 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 3: And so from that point on, Mac Brown and the 73 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 3: football team vowed a would never lose the Duke or whatever. 74 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: And for the longest time, I think. 75 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: The loss to Duke yesterday was the first time that 76 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 3: he's lost to Duke since nineteen eighty nine. And so, look, 77 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 3: it's tough on coach Brown. Now, it's tough on the 78 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 3: football program. And they're really really close to being a 79 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: good program. They just can't get over the hump. Hopefully 80 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: at some point this season they'll turn the corner and 81 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 3: have a lot of success, but they just haven't had 82 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: it right now. 83 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 4: Well that's hope. 84 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 2: So okay, now, I mentioned like what college football is 85 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: all about. You know what it's all about, and this 86 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: is my take on it, because I don't want to 87 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: be a hypocrite and say, you know, it's great. Things 88 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:53,839 Speaker 2: are good. 89 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 4: No, it's not. 90 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: The key to college football right now is a term 91 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: called collectives. Now, for those people who don't know what 92 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 2: it is, is, a collective is the organized group of 93 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: donors who raise cash to fund endorsement deals to kids. 94 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 2: All right, I knew this whole thing was not going 95 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 2: to work out. I'm not saying athletes shouldn't get paid. 96 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 2: Sure they should. They're the face of the university of 97 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: college they really are. But I'm very happy to see 98 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 2: this UNLV. They made a big statement yesterday in their 99 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 2: first game without their former starting quarterback Matthew Sluca. The 100 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 2: Rebels are going to be pretty good, though. They really are. 101 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 2: They beat up on Fresno State fifty nine to fourteen. 102 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: They're now four and zero. But here's the deal. After 103 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: starting three games for UNLV, this kid Sluca opted now 104 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 2: to red shirt. He's expected to enter the transfer portal 105 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: next month, and his father and his agent have alleged 106 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: he was verbally promised one hundred grand by UNLV and 107 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: by their offensive coordinator Brendan murray On during his recruitment, 108 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: but he only got three thousand dollars from the schools, 109 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: and that only from the schools collective. Okay, UNLV said, 110 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: and this is in es statement that sluca's reps made 111 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 2: financial demands to keep playing that it would interpret it as 112 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: a violation of NCAA pay for play rules as well 113 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: as state laws in the state of Nevada. This is ridiculous. 114 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: First of all, there was nothing signed. It was verbal. Okay, 115 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: Now these assistant coaches are speaking. I gotta believe for 116 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: the collectives. I mean, I don't like this whole situation. 117 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 2: I think it stinks that got to clean it up. 118 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 4: Bucket. 119 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: It's not good. It really isn't good what happened over 120 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 2: there at UNLV. 121 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: No, it's not good. 122 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 3: And the worry that you have when you talk about 123 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 3: the collectives and the money and nil and coaches speaking 124 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 3: out of turn. You don't have any regulations, and people 125 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 3: think that rules are bad, but rules are good because 126 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 3: it allows everyone to know exactly where you're supposed to stand. 127 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 3: You know exactly how you're supposed to operate. And what 128 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 3: you have is you have coaches making promises that the 129 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 3: collectives and others can't keep. 130 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: And for young people. 131 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 3: Who are basing their decisions now on money and nil 132 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: deals as opposed to where they want to go to 133 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 3: college for an education, a degree and those things. Yeah, 134 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 3: they're very influenced and swayed by that. And the kid 135 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: in UNLV, there have been some other kids who've talked 136 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 3: about the. 137 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: Promises not being met. He decided to pull away. 138 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 3: And I'll say this still because some of this is 139 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 3: a little old school. 140 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: I didn't like him quitting on the team. 141 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 3: With you, I'm understand that I didn't like him quitting 142 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 3: on the team and the way in which he did it. 143 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 3: It would be hard for me as the next school 144 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 3: that is going to offer him an opportunity maybe to 145 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 3: trust him. And so much of what good teams are, football, basketball, 146 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 3: whatever the team is is about trust between players and players, 147 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 3: players and coaches, coaches and coaches. To me, he violated that. 148 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: But I also see that he feels like the school 149 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 3: violated his term. So it's just bad. I just wish 150 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: it was regular. So everyone is on the up and up. 151 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: But right now, as the Wild Wild West in the 152 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: NC double A kind of has his hands tied behind 153 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: his back because all of the court cases kind of 154 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 3: wipe the power away from them. So it's hard for 155 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: anyone to regulate anything when it comes to this stuff. 156 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 4: Right, ANTI Doublea's powerless. 157 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: And I got to believe in a couple of years 158 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: down the roads, it's not even going to be an 159 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: NT double A. And this what makes this so bad. 160 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: You're right, took several things. Number one, the kid quit 161 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: on his teammates, which is not a good thing. And 162 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: he's supposed to be a leader at the quarterback position. 163 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 2: You know, people have their second doubts there on that. However, 164 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: here's the problem. The rich we'll always get richer. There 165 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 2: are schools out there that compete, but now they can 166 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: never compete because they don't have the collectives that schools 167 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: like maybe Ohio State has or Oklahoma may have, or 168 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: whatever it may be. Notre Dame they just don't have 169 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 2: those collectives. Forget about admission. I remember years ago they 170 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: were saying, why is it Notre Dame more competitive? And 171 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: they would saying, well, you know, because our grades. It's 172 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: hard to get into Notre Dame. Now it's not even 173 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 2: a question of grades, it's a question of collectives. They're 174 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 2: more important than anything else. They really are. 175 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'll say it's kind of sad, or yeah, 176 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 3: I mean, sad. 177 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: Is the best way for me to describe it. That 178 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: has become like this, that has become a. 179 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: Thing where everyone is worried about, like the nil and 180 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 3: how much money am I getting, as opposed to the 181 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: opportunities that the school can provide not only academically but 182 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: networking resources for thirty forty years down the line, in 183 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 3: terms of the people that you meet, the alums that 184 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 3: you can meet, how they can help you, how they 185 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 3: can impact what you want to do in the second 186 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 3: phase of life post playing. I'm worried about that part 187 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: of it. But yeah, right now it's about cash in hand. 188 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 3: How much cash can I get to come play? 189 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't dig it. I don't like it. 190 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: Even though I am adamant that players should have always 191 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 3: been cut in to the deal. 192 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: They should have always gotten a piece of the pie. 193 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 3: I just don't like the way it's presented because right 194 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: now it's unregulated, which isn't good. 195 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 2: I'm with you here, I'm with you a million percent. 196 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: But here's the question. You're a proud grad of the 197 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: tar Heels North Carolina, right if they came to you 198 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 2: and say, hey, Bucky, we got this potential quarterback, a 199 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 2: five star quarterback in high school, but he needs one 200 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: hundred grand? Could you pitch in fifty grand? Would you? 201 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 2: Could you? And I'm scratching my head because I was 202 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 2: thinking about that. Why on God's green earth would anybody 203 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 2: want to write a check for a potential kid coming 204 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 2: to school? I mean, what's the benefit. I don't understand it. 205 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 2: I really don't understand why these people are putting up 206 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 2: money to have a high school kid who really have 207 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: no You probably never saw him play going to your 208 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: school to play football. 209 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 4: I don't get it. 210 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 2: I don't understand it. 211 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: I don't either, thank you, thank you? I mean, you 212 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: would not write a check. You wouldn't do credit check. 213 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: It's hard for me. 214 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 3: It's hard for me to even think about that, but 215 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 3: I would do. And I think it's even harder for 216 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 3: some of the old school people, particularly like when I 217 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 3: think about it, a lot of my influence comes from 218 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 3: when I was a kid. The basketball team was always 219 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 3: the thing. The basketball team has secured some big time recruits, 220 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 3: but it's hard for me to think that Dean Smith 221 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 3: would be like, oh, yeah, we're gonna pay you whatever 222 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 3: to come. 223 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: Play for us. 224 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 3: And I know it's a different time, but it would 225 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 3: be hard for me to write a check for a kid, 226 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 3: an eighteen year old, and say, a man, we need him. 227 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: I want to secure his services in those things. But 228 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 3: a lot of the people that are in charge of 229 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 3: the collectives, that are in charge with the money, the 230 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: fundraising in those things, they're business people who want to 231 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 3: be a part. They just want to be a part 232 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: of the good stuff that the team is doing. 233 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: They want to have a voice. They want to be. 234 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: Able to tell their buddies like, yeah, I helped get X, 235 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 3: Y and Z. And so they can't help it. They 236 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: fawn over these kids and they're willing to pay whatever 237 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: to bring them in. 238 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 1: But for me, I'll pass. I'm good on that. 239 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 4: I'm passing too. 240 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: But you know what, things have changed a little bit more. 241 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 2: It's more upfront now. Back in the day, they had 242 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 2: the so called bag men. The assistant coaches would come 243 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: out and you know, pay they get a kid's mom 244 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: the house or or hire the dad as an assistant coach. 245 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: We've seen that, you know, it's happened, but it was 246 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: kind of under the table. We didn't know about it. 247 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 2: Now it's way up in the open. So you know, 248 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: I don't like it. I'm glad you don't like it 249 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 2: with today, we're in the same page. But you know 250 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: what I do like. I like that Kentucky's for real 251 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: Kentucky football. You know, they played Georgia two weeks ago, 252 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: they lose thirteen twelve. Then they lose to South Carolina 253 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 2: thirty one six. Yesterday, they're down, they're down what seventeen 254 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 2: thirteen in that game against Old Miss, and they had 255 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: fourth and seven on their own twenty and they go 256 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 2: for it and they got like a sixty three yard 257 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: completion and they beat Old Miss twenty seventeen, knocking Old 258 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 2: Miss out of the undefeated ranks the number sixteen of 259 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 2: the country, Old Miss. Kentucky's for real. Maybe they're paying 260 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 2: Their play is pretty good. I don't know, but Kentucky's 261 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: for real right now, and I love it now. 262 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 3: They are for real. They're a really good team, and 263 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 3: they've been able to do it in a way that 264 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 3: has been surprising because Mark Stoops has built a really 265 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: good program. Competitive, they're scrappy, they've been able to produce pros. 266 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 3: They get after it, and for them to go on 267 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 3: the road and get a big win like that, it's 268 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 3: going to look do wonders for that program. 269 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: For Mississippi. 270 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 3: You know, they'll find out how tough it can be 271 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 3: at the top when you go from being the hunted, 272 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 3: from being the hunter to the hunted. 273 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: It was a big game for Kentucky. 274 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 3: Particularly because Kentucky felt like they let Georgia off the hook. 275 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: A few weeks ago. They came back and got a top. 276 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 3: Ten team in Old miss the SEC as well, very competitively. 277 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: It's a wilde to watch. 278 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: It's unbelieva. We talked about that Alabama Georgia game. The 279 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: hype is ridiculous. Going to the game. All of a sudden, 280 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 2: now Georgia is down by twenty eight points. I flicked 281 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 2: the TV off. I wanted to another game. I'm watching 282 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 2: University of Cincinnati playing Texas Tech, which was a decent 283 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 2: game in Tech and Texas Tech beat him by three. 284 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: I think it was at the end of the game, 285 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: but they're down twenty eight. Next thing I know, I 286 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: turned back and they're back in the game and George 287 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 2: is leading thirty four to thirty three with about two 288 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 2: and a half minutes to go, and the Alabama comes back. 289 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: It is an amazing ending. Forty one thirty four for 290 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 2: the ending right there? Man, how do you let them 291 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: come back. I don't say you put the foot on 292 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 2: their throat and you step on their throat, you're up 293 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 2: by twenty eight. It should be all over, should be 294 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: lights out. But you know what, I watched a halftime 295 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 2: deal and Nick Saban said, this Georgia team's gonna come back. 296 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 2: He's and I think maybe he's saying that because he 297 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: doesn't want to lose the TV audience. I don't know, 298 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 2: but he was right. He was right, he really was, 299 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 2: and they came back. 300 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, no one. 301 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 3: Look, man, anytime you have a program that has multiple 302 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: national titles in recent history, there's a heart of a 303 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: champion that lies in that locker room. They're not gonna 304 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 3: bow out easily. And I would say this Georgia is 305 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: going to walk out of that game more determined, even 306 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: better than they would have if they had won straight up, 307 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: because they took Alabama's best punch. They played probably the 308 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 3: worst half of football that Georgia has played under Kirby 309 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: smart and yet at the end of the game. 310 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: But two minutes left, they had taken the league and 311 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: come all the way back. 312 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 3: Kirby now can stand in front of his team and 313 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: tell them, guys, no matter what we always are in 314 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 3: the game that will do wonders for their confidence. And 315 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 3: with another game against Alabama on horizon, whether it's in 316 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 3: the SEC or the playoffs, the next time they meet, 317 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 3: the confidence is gonna be in Georgia's corner, not necessarily 318 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 3: an Alabama's corner. 319 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 2: All Right, I hear you. You know I'm one of 320 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: those people to tell you, and you know this right 321 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 2: up front, that I make a lot of mistakes. You 322 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 2: know I'm not that smart. You know that. I mean, 323 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 2: you've worked me for a while. You can tell them. 324 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 2: You probably work with a moron. You probably tell people that. 325 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: And that's okay. Because I said this back in August, 326 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 2: I thought the Heisman Trumphy winner would be my guy 327 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 2: at Alcaholma State, Oli Gordon. I don't know what happened 328 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: to him. I put the kiss of death on this guy. 329 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: Not only did he have a terrible game yesterday fifteen 330 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: carries for seventy six yards at Oklahoma State, but Oklahoma 331 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: State loses to Kansas State forty two twenty What happened 332 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: to Dolly Gordon? Did I put the kabash on this kid? 333 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: I mean last year he was lights out. He hasn't 334 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: done a theme this year, and I think going into 335 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 2: the year he was considered perhaps a Heisman Trophy candidate. 336 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, you put the Wammie on him. You ruined it. 337 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: I did. He ruined it for many like you absolutely 338 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: messed it up. 339 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 3: I don't know, man, It's such a weird thing to watch, 340 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: like watching Oklahoma. I mean, they had to hold on 341 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 3: for dear life because they were getting their doors pulled off, 342 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: and they made a competitive and eventually Case State stepped 343 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 3: away again. 344 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,479 Speaker 1: But yeah, he just doesn't just doesn't look the same. 345 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 3: Like something was a little off, Like he just hasn't 346 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 3: men the same kind of player that we thought he 347 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 3: would be as a thing he looked. He's still a 348 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 3: terrific prospect in those things, but we thought that he 349 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 3: would have a greater impact at it collegiate level than 350 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: he's shown thus far. 351 00:15:58,800 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: No doubt. 352 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: I tell you who's come out of know where the 353 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: Khalel Mullings kid from Michigan. Michigan wins yesterday, but more 354 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 2: than that, and they kind of a sloppy game really 355 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: but tough twenty seven to twenty four of the Minnesota. 356 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 2: But this kid, Mullings had one hundred eleven yards on 357 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: the ground. The team had two hundred and forty one. 358 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 2: He had one hundred and eleven of those yards, and 359 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 2: he had two touchdowns. So two weeks in a row. 360 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: This kid's coming alive. I'm at Michigan. All of a sudden, 361 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: they rode them for dead. 362 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: They're back. 363 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: I mean, they got their running game and they're tough 364 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 2: on defense. They're a tough football team. This Michigan team. 365 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: Don't count them out. They're four and one, two and 366 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: zero in the Big Ten. 367 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 3: Look, man, it was ugly because they had to hold 368 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 3: on the clock necessarily ran out on Minnesota's come back 369 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 3: more so than Michigan's stopping them. They were up a ton. 370 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: I think it's twenty four to three, twenty seven three. 371 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 3: They let Minnesota come all the way back, maybe twenty 372 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,479 Speaker 3: four three. Bad them come all the way back. Minnesota 373 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: was hot and rolling. They were able to go up 374 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 3: tempo the last quarter and really walk the Maes down. 375 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: The Wolverines were able to. 376 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 3: Benefit from a controversial onset kick at the end where 377 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 3: the officials ruled that a guy was off side you 378 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 3: look back at the replay is questionable, but they held 379 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 3: on the thing that they've done is they've leaned into 380 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 3: who they have to be, and that's going to be 381 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: a ground and pound team. With Orgy their new quarterback. 382 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 3: They can't throw the ball. The passing game is limited, 383 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 3: so they've just been able to kind of cram it 384 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 3: down people's throw, play good defense for lone turnovers, and 385 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 3: special teams to set them up for short feels and 386 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: they've been able to cash it in. How far can 387 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 3: they go with that remains to be determined, but from Michigan, 388 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 3: that's the way they have to play with the team 389 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 3: they have right now. 390 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: Yep. 391 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 2: I keep one eye a little bit on the university 392 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 2: was conscient. I thought I'm a big fan, but Luke 393 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 2: Fickle coaches was conscient, and I knew Luke when he 394 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 2: coached University of Cincinnati. So I'm watching the game and 395 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 2: having their way Wisconscious, having their way with USC yesterday, 396 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, the USC scores twenty eight 397 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,719 Speaker 2: points and it holds you wisconstant to nothing, twenty eight 398 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 2: nothing in the last thirty minutes of the game and 399 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 2: they lose thirty eight twenty one. I just don't understand 400 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 2: how teams falter fade just collapse in second halves of football. 401 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: I don't get it. It almost happened yesterday in that 402 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 2: Georgia Alabama game. You know, you got the lead. I mean, 403 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 2: you're just so cocky, you confidence. I mean, I don't understand. 404 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: I mean, what happens at halftime? Why can't they hold 405 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 2: the lead? 406 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 3: Natural human reaction is when you have success, to become 407 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 3: a little complacent. So when you start a game and 408 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 3: you already have this edge on you, right because you 409 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 3: expect a hostile game, you expect a tight game. 410 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: You expect it to be. 411 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 3: Kind of a testy affair, and then when you run 412 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 3: out to the lead of twenty plus points, sometimes it's 413 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 3: hard to keep that same focus, that same intensity, the 414 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 3: same a. 415 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: We want to knock them all the way out human reaction. 416 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 3: And remember you're dealing with eighteen to twenty two year olds, 417 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 3: you know, and their emotions can all over the place, 418 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 3: and it's hard to keep them on tasks for that long. 419 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 3: The other part that you have, particularly early in the year, 420 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 3: conditioning is a factor. You're still in the first four 421 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 3: games of the season, your team is still working its 422 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 3: way into great shape. 423 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: So the fourth quarter, you've. 424 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 3: Been on the field logging a bunch of snaps, and 425 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 3: depending on the tempo of the game, you may be 426 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 3: like at one hundred plays a peace by that point 427 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 3: in a college game, because the tempo is drolling, people 428 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 3: are going fast. There's a natural breaking point, a natural 429 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 3: point where your body breaks down, and sometimes fatigue can 430 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 3: can impact it. Just like we saw twenty eighty three 431 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 3: the Patriots in the Atlanta Falcons and everyone is like, 432 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 3: this is in the bag within the Patriots have to 433 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 3: go to a passing game plan. What happened to the 434 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 3: Falcons pass rush? They got tired. That's a lot of 435 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 3: pass rush attempts in succession. Same thing at the collegiate 436 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 3: low When you let the opponent's offense stay on the field, 437 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 3: it has a wearing down effect that eventually can't catch 438 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: up to you if you're not able to stay in 439 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 3: the track meet. 440 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: There you go, Okay, Now, I know, okay, but I 441 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: will tell you that it wouldn't be Saturday if it 442 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 2: wasn't Deon Sinders in Colorado. Gotta watch Colordad. I watched 443 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 2: Colorado every SCE I have to. They played U see 444 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 2: at this team. You see if I had the number 445 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: one run offense in the country and they held them. 446 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 2: Colorado held them to under two hundred yards. They win 447 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: forty eight twenty one. They're four to one. They're for real. 448 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you right now, I'm almost afraid to 449 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 2: say this. I'm afraid I don't want to put the 450 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 2: kiss of death on this kid. But Travis Hunter should 451 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 2: get the Heisman Trophy. Nine catches yesterday, eighty nine yards, 452 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 2: a touchdown, plus an interception in the third quarter. It's unbelievable. 453 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: This guy's playing both ways. He takes like one hundred 454 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: and forty snaps a game. This guy should be Look, 455 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: it depends on upon of obviously, how many games they win. 456 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 2: If they go to a bowl game, he'll be the 457 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy winner. They're four and one right now. All 458 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 2: they're gonna do is win two more games. They're going 459 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 2: to a bowl game. He will be God willing doesn't 460 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 2: get hurt. Travis, You're going to be the Heisman Trophy winner. 461 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 3: I mean, he is terrific. He is one the best 462 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 3: players that I've ever seen in terms of just the 463 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 3: way that he plays the game is so easy for 464 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 3: him and so natural. Yeah, if you ask me who 465 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 3: should get the Heisman, right now he's been the best 466 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,479 Speaker 3: player in college football, and the stuff that he has 467 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: done on both sides of the ball, There's never been 468 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 3: anyone to do that like this. I think Champ Bailey's 469 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 3: the closest one. People always referenced Charles Wilson, and he 470 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 3: did play a little both ways. Champ Bailey, I want 471 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: to say his final season at Georgia, he was a 472 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: legitimate two way player. 473 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: At Georgia. 474 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: He called the ball, did a bunch of things on defense. 475 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 3: But this dude, Travis Hunter doesn't come off the field. 476 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 3: And as Deanna coach Prime has said, why would I 477 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 3: leave a good football player on the sideline When he 478 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 3: can impact the game every time he's on the field. 479 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put him on the field. 480 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 3: And Travis Hunter is one of the more impactful college 481 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 3: football players that I've seen. He is worthy of all 482 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: the hype and attention that he's getting. And it's going 483 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 3: to be real interesting when he gets to the next 484 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 3: level and he declares what positions or positions people are 485 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 3: going to want to man and how they're underploy. 486 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 4: There you go. 487 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna leave you with this. You know, with the 488 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: expansion of the college football players not the twelve teams. 489 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say this all right, and you can smack 490 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 2: me around with if you don't agree. The games that 491 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 2: are being played on Saturday, the games and in all 492 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: the games, really they don't have as much meaning and 493 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: they don't have as much drama because you could lose 494 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: two games and still go be in the top twelve. 495 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 2: They don't have that you better win now like win 496 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: or go home deal. The drama is not there, The 497 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 2: meeting is not there. Yeah, you watch the game. They're 498 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 2: exciting games and there's competition there, but they really, when 499 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 2: it's all said and done, doesn't mean that much. Yeah, 500 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 2: Georgia lost yesterday, so what they're gonna be a top 501 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 2: twelve team. They're gonna go to the playoffs. So the 502 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 2: expansion is good for teams, certainly good for coaches, but 503 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: as far as fans are concerned, the drama I don't 504 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 2: think is there as it used to be when that 505 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: four team's going. 506 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: I think the drama is still there. 507 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 3: I think what you see, I think you'll see more 508 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 3: games because now the stakes different. You'll see more games 509 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 3: because you can actually afford to lose a game and 510 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 3: still make it to the playoffs. That should encourage more 511 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 3: teams to play better teams, because that's gonna lead to 512 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 3: more successes down the line. So to me, I'm excited 513 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 3: about it. I think it's gonna be a good thing, 514 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 3: not a bad thing. 515 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: All right, Diego, I think you're a real good thing. 516 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 2: I really do.

We've got some 539 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 4: injury updates though in the NFL, as Adam Schefter was 540 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 4: some pupp list candidates to come off the list and 541 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 4: open their practice window. TJ. Howkinson is coming off of 542 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 4: major knee injury but is nearing a return to practice. 543 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 4: According to Schefter, the return to play dates for Hawkinson 544 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 4: Thursday night, October twenty, fourth game in Los Angeles or 545 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 4: the following week's home game against the Colts. That scene 546 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 4: as the most likely time he'll be back for Minnesota. 547 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 4: Brown's expected to open the practice window this week on 548 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 4: Nick Chubb, who is nearing a return from the pupp 549 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 4: list after a sideline after his knee injury in week 550 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 4: two of last season, and Schefter also saying that Justin 551 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 4: Herbert has been free of setbacks. He's preparing to play 552 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 4: today against the Chiefs. So very key news right there. 553 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 4: For the LA Chargers. He and Rapaport with some updates 554 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 4: overnight Bucks running back for Sead White, He's on the 555 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 4: injury report this week with an illness food poisoning specifically, 556 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 4: but he is expected to play today, has his condition 557 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 4: has improved rapidly. Rapaport also saying that forty nine Ers 558 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 4: wide receiver Deebo Samuel and left tackle Trent Williams listed 559 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 4: as questionable but both likely to play. Williams being active, 560 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 4: could hinge on a pregame workout, according to the tweet, 561 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 4: but there is optimism he'll be able to go. Texan's 562 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 4: running back Joe Mixon is considered a game at time 563 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 4: decision with his ankle injury. He has worked hard to 564 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 4: come back and it very well could be an uphill 565 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 4: climb for him to play, but he has not given up. 566 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 4: He's going to test it out and see if he 567 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 4: can go. Rap Report saying that Bear's wide receiver Keenan 568 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,959 Speaker 4: Allen listened as questionable, expected to play today. He's been 569 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 4: out the last couple of games with a heel injury. 570 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 4: Saints running back Alvin co Era, wide receiver Chris o'lave 571 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 4: expected to play. Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis also should 572 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 4: be able to go today. He is questionable with a 573 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 4: shoulder injury. As for the action in the college ranks. 574 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 4: On Saturday, we had a couple of upsets, both by 575 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 4: wildcat teams. In the SEC, it's Kentucky beating number six 576 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 4: Ole miss twenty to seventeen and in the Big Twelve 577 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 4: Arizona taking down number ten Utah twenty three to ten. 578 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 4: But the big game of the night in at Tuscaloosa, 579 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 4: Number two Georgia number four Alabama. The tie had a 580 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 4: twenty eight point lead at one point, but the Dogs 581 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 4: came back and had a chance to tie it with 582 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 4: forty three seconds to go, but Zabian Brown picks off 583 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 4: Carson beck In at the end zone to seal the 584 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: win for the Crimson Tide as they win at forty 585 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 4: one to thirty four as part of three interceptions on 586 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 4: the day. For Becky did have three touchdowns and four 587 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 4: and thirty nine passing yards, but also three picks, including 588 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 4: that costly won there at the end. Top right, Texas 589 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 4: they get their first ever SEC win as a member 590 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 4: of that conference in conference play thirty five thirteen and 591 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 4: they beat Mississippi State as arch Manning had two touchdown 592 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 4: passes three are in twenty four yards in that win. 593 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 4: Number three Ohio State thirty eight seven against Michigan State 594 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 4: number eight. Oregon pounds UCLA thirty four to thirteen, ninth 595 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 4: rank Penn State twenty one seven winners and gets Umber 596 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 4: nineteen Illinois number twelve. Michigan gets by Minnesota twenty seven 597 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 4: to twenty four number thirteen USCA home win against Wisconsin 598 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 4: thirty eight to twenty one. Backs you guys, all right. 599 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:34,959 Speaker 2: Thanks so much. Let's get right into these games. He's 600 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 2: Bucket Brooks on Andy Furman, Fox Football Sunday, Broncos at 601 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 2: Jets today. Broncos won of Tampa last week, Jets beating 602 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 2: New England. And as for the Broncos, I gotta believe 603 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 2: that they need a little more respect. Of course, the 604 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 2: three teams they faced had a combined regular of eight 605 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 2: and one. Okay, they went to Tampa. They defeated a 606 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: team that was undefeated at the time. As for the Jets, 607 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 2: their quarterback Aaron Rodgers looked like an MVP when they 608 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 2: played Patriots. But that's the Patriots. Okay, this guy and 609 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,239 Speaker 2: I looked this up. This is unbelievable. He never threw 610 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: a touchdown pass to a first round wide receiver during 611 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 2: his eighteen years in Green Bay. Now he's got Garrett Wilson. 612 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 4: All right. 613 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 2: I like this game because I tell you what, you 614 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: don't know which way it's going to go. I will 615 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: take the Jets. I think I judged the Jets to 616 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 2: me have more, more of a complete unit and a 617 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 2: great defense. Rodgers becomes the first Jet quarterback to beat 618 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: the Vikings at night since Brett Farb and that was 619 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 2: sixteen years ago. I like the Jets, Jets, Jets, Jets. 620 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 621 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 3: Look, I think the Jets are trending in the right direction. 622 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 3: Brett Farv, I mean not Brett Farv. Aaron Rodgers has 623 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 3: given them what they needed at the quarterback position in 624 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: terms of like an elite quarterback. He's not what he 625 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 3: once was, but his intelligence, his confidence, his expertise in 626 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 3: terms of knowing how to play the position has certainly 627 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 3: helped him. He will eventually get Garrett Wilson over the 628 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 3: top and Garret Wilson be the impactful playmaker that we 629 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: all expect he would be, much like DeVonta Adams. Yeah, 630 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 3: right now, the things are trending right for the Jays. 631 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: Their defense is good enough, but offensively they're making stress 632 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 3: each and every week and they continue. 633 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 4: All right, This is a goodie. 634 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: Vikings undefeated three to zero at the Packers are two 635 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 2: and one, and I said, let's have these coach of 636 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 2: the years right now. They both, these coaches right now 637 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: could be in the running as we speak today as 638 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: coach of the year. Why Vikings beat the Texans last 639 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 2: week thirty four to seven, Packers beat the Titans thirty fourteen. 640 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 2: And the Packers without Jordan Love, who may be playing today, 641 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 2: their coach, Matt Lafleur, should be coach of the year, 642 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: at least a candidate of Coach of the year. Y 643 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 2: because the Packers believe they don't have the league's top 644 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,479 Speaker 2: rushing attack six hundred twelve rushing yards the fourthmost by 645 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 2: any team through three games is nineteen ninety all right. 646 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: They also have a league high nine takeaways. They're playing 647 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 2: great football. What if the Vikings Sam Donald's surprising everybody, 648 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: leading the league with eight touchdown passes. It's unbelievable, and 649 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: their defense is tremendous. So you got guys like Kevin 650 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 2: O'Connell coaching the Vikes and you got Matt Lafleur coaching 651 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 2: the Packers, both right now high quality coaches looking as 652 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: maybe Coach of the Year candidates, What do you think 653 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 2: of this game? I like the Packers. I like the 654 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 2: the Packers in this game. 655 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 3: Normally I would like the Packers. But to me, Minnesota's 656 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 3: defense is legit. Brian Floyd is and what he's doing 657 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 3: with that defense now that he has more talent, they 658 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 3: are making life miserable for play callers and passers. They 659 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 3: know that they face a tough running game, so they 660 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 3: will take the running game away. And if Jordan Love 661 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 3: comes back his first game back, They're gonna make a 662 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 3: dogged effort to knock him around and hit him because 663 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 3: his mobility would certainly be limited. And the Vikings, to me, 664 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 3: are one of the teams that we're going to talk 665 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 3: about being a Super Bowl contender. They make a statement 666 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 3: this time against the Packers. 667 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 4: Wow. Okay. 668 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: And I'm not going to go back to the picks 669 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: that I had next week because I was dreadful. But 670 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 2: I think so were a lot of other people. I mean, 671 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: there were a lot of surprises last week. I look 672 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: at the Saints Falcons right now, Falcons one and two. 673 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 2: They didn't look good at all. Saints two and one. 674 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 2: Saints lost to the Eagles. Falcons lost to the Chiefs 675 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 2: that had the Chiefs that had them. They did the 676 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: LUs twenty two to seventeen. And that Saints offense, obviously, 677 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 2: I don't know what happened last week. The first two 678 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: games had forty seven and forty four points. But their 679 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 2: defense is pretty good too, because it's the corner Alante Taylor. 680 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: He's got almost four sacks. So Derek Carr for them 681 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: to win, he needs to go back to the forms 682 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 2: that he had in game one and two. I don't 683 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: know if he can. And as far as the Falcons 684 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: are concerned, I gotta believe their offensive line is dreadful. 685 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I just I don't know what's happening with 686 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,479 Speaker 2: that Falcons team. I don't think they're a playoff contender. 687 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: I really don't. 688 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 4: So in this Saints I'm sorry, I'm. 689 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 3: Gonna go the other way. I'm gonna go at the 690 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 3: Falcons in this game. What's interesting is kubi X offense. 691 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 3: I've been rolling the first couple of weeks, but then 692 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 3: the ego stemy it. 693 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: How many people? 694 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 3: How many teams will take a similar blueprint and use 695 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 3: that against the Saints until the Saints show that they 696 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 3: can counter that. 697 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: You gotta remember this. 698 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 3: Raheem Morris spent a lot of time. 699 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: With the Rams. 700 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,479 Speaker 3: The godfather of the Rams system is Vic Fangio because 701 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 3: Brandon Staley brought that system and scheme to the Rams 702 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 3: and they kind of continued on. 703 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: RAYM. 704 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 3: Morris looked just at the Philadelphia Eagles film and he 705 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 3: knows those calls, he knows how to do that. He's 706 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 3: gonna replicate that. And if they're able to slow that 707 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 3: team down, the Valcans can move the ball on the Saints. 708 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 6: Uh. 709 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: To me, I'm just leaning. 710 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 3: Into the Vic Fangio. Mcvaghery eventually leads Rightie Morris to 711 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 3: find the right combination of play calls to be able 712 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 3: to thwart that offense and get his team into the 713 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 3: winner circle this week. 714 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: All right, I hear, all right? If we had this 715 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 2: Eagles Bucks game, Tampa Bay Bucks doing well at two 716 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: and one, Eagles two and one, and the question I 717 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: had are the Eagles a top five team? I think 718 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 2: that's the big question of the day right now, because 719 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 2: as far as the top five teams, in my mind, 720 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 2: you got the Chiefs Bills. You're going interchange those maybe, 721 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 2: but those are one two two one Chiefs and the Bills. 722 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 2: I'm putting the Vikings there, I'm putting the lines there, 723 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 2: I'm putting the Packers there, and I am putting the Eagles. 724 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: I think the Eagles are a top five team. 725 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: Agreed, I think they are. But you name more than 726 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: five teams, so some. 727 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 3: Of the outside, Yeah, some of those teams gonna be 728 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 3: on the outside looking in. 729 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: The Eagles are talented enough to do it. 730 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 3: They haven't played their best yet, but yeah, they certainly 731 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: deserve to be in that conversation as a top ten team. 732 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 2: What about sai Kuon Barkley, I mean last week at 733 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 2: a sixty five yard touchdown run, I mean, he is 734 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 2: really really ignited this Eagles team, especially without their wide 735 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: receiver AJ Brown Devonte Smith. They've they've been out, so 736 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley really as he did with the Giants carrying 737 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 2: the offense. 738 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's back to carrying the offense. He's a unique player. 739 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: He does everything for them. He stabilizes the team because 740 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 3: they can always lean into him as the primary runner. 741 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 3: He can do it in the passing game. But yeah, 742 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 3: he's the best player and they're finding ways to get 743 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 3: them the ball in it in ways that defense can't 744 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 3: contain them. It's one on one, two on one, three 745 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 3: on two whatever in space, and so he's winning that 746 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 3: numbers battle on the perimeter. They got to get their 747 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 3: quarterback going, though. They got to find a way to 748 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 3: get Jalen Hurts going. He hasn't played great in a 749 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 3: long time. It's not for them to get him going. 750 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 2: I'm glad you mentioned him because he's got eight straight 751 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: games with the turnover in every one of those games. 752 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 2: If you can control the ball, they win this ball game. 753 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: It's easy as that. That's it. It's not that difficult, 754 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 2: it really is.

Ask Bucky first question your early MVP in 771 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 2: the NFL, Bucky. 772 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 1: Brooks gotta be Josh Adam. 773 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 3: The player that I saw last Monday night was fantastic. 774 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 3: You move Stefan Diggs, you move Gabe Davis. But yet 775 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 3: his game has gone up. The way that he controls 776 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 3: the game, the way that he dominates the game as 777 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 3: a run and a thrower. Right now, hands down, he's 778 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 3: the easy MVP. 779 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 2: All right, here we go. Now, is Travis Kelcey slowing 780 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 2: down at his age of thirty four or is it 781 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 2: just the defenses are making a lot tougher on him? 782 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:40,919 Speaker 1: Both? But he's slowing down. 783 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 3: It's one of those things that great players have a 784 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 3: tough time acknowledging. He is not the player that he 785 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 3: once was. And I saw this before with Antonio Gates. 786 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 3: They still are great players, they just have to go 787 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 3: about it differently. They've lost some of the athleticism in speed, 788 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 3: he has lost some of that, so he has to 789 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 3: kind of up the craftiness to be able to get 790 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 3: his production. But he's not the player that he once 791 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 3: was two years ago. 792 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And a lot of the media people are saying 793 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 2: is because of the time he spent with Taylor Swift 794 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 2: going on the concert to it and it was wonderful. 795 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: Just the other day when his coach Andy rees and that, 796 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: it's a lot of bunk. You know, he's still Travis Kelsey. 797 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 2: I mean, hey, look, maybe in Andy Reid's mind he 798 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: knows what you know, and he's saying he's saying the 799 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: same thing in his mind, but he will not go 800 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 2: public with that. 801 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 4: He still supports Travis Kelcey. 802 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gonna support him, because what good does the 803 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 3: dude to go public with that? Like then it's just 804 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 3: another thing that people are talking about. Nah, he understands 805 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 3: what it is. He knows what he has in his 806 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 3: number his number one target in the passing game, Travis Kelcey. 807 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 3: He needs Travis to be great down the stretching in 808 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 3: the postseason. They should have enough young players around him 809 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 3: now that he could kind of be on cruise control 810 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 3: right now, but I still expect him to be a 811 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 3: dangerous player when we get to the playoffs. He still 812 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 3: will be a guy that Patrick Mahomes goes to early 813 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 3: and offen. 814 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: All Right, your top NFL TV commentator and why. 815 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 3: M top commentator and why I love what look? I 816 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 3: love listening to Greg Olsen. Greg Olsen is smart and 817 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: even though he's no longer with the A team because 818 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 3: Tom Prady came, look, Olsen is I would say the 819 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 3: best in the bids in terms of understanding how to 820 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 3: set it up, and he gives it to you from 821 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 3: a different perspective than the quarterback. 822 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: That's it. 823 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna take anything away from what Tom Brady 824 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 3: wants to accomplish. 825 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: I think in time he'll be the one that we 826 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: talked about. 827 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 3: Read about his preparation, which is already legendary. He's gonna 828 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 3: be fine. He just needs more time. 829 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 2: All right, I hear what you're saying. Well, we move on. 830 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 2: Here's an interesting story which I picked up just the 831 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 2: other day. Said Dereck Henry spends a quarter of a 832 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,359 Speaker 2: million dollars a year on his body because he wants 833 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 2: to stay in shape. 834 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 4: Why does he do that? 835 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: But there is the average age for a running back 836 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: and the NFL is about twenty seven point eight years old. 837 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 2: In fact, they say this year there are only four 838 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 2: running backs on an NFL roster over the age of thirty. 839 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 2: Is that normal to spend that kind of money to 840 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 2: stay in shape for a player. 841 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's unfortunate that he has to spend it out 842 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 3: of his own pocket, but yeah, you have to do that. 843 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 3: And if you want to play at a high level 844 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 3: in this league, your body is everything. 845 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: You got to take care of it. You got to 846 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: preserve it. 847 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 3: You got to make sure you know how to rest 848 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 3: and recovery so you can get the kind of performance 849 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 3: that you need to play at the high level. I'm 850 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 3: not surprised that he's investing that kind of money himself 851 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 3: because obviously the results speak for themselves. 852 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to share this with you because it's 853 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 2: kind of interesting. He has his own private chef and 854 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,760 Speaker 2: he prepares every meal and he avoids fried foods, gluten, dairy, 855 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 2: artificial sugar. And get this, he only eats two meals 856 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,959 Speaker 2: a day three times chicken breast rice with broccoli, meal 857 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 2: number two gluten free pancakes, scrambled eggs, dice potatoes, home fries, 858 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 2: and steak. And here's the craziest part of Derrick Henry's 859 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 2: training routine. He doesn't eat his first meal until four 860 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 2: or five PM. During the season. He's playing every single 861 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 2: game on an empty stomach. Think about that, and everybody 862 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 2: talks about pregame meals. He's playing on an empty stomach 863 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: when he plays at one o'clock Easton. 864 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 3: Well, I bet you if you ask him, I bet 865 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 3: you he modifies that on game day. He has to 866 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 3: have some gas to be able to participate and play 867 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 3: at a high level on game day. But in terms 868 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 3: of walking around, I can see where he walk around 869 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 3: and doesn't eat as much because you don't necessarily need to. 870 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 1: We overeat. 871 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 3: He's a freak show in terms of an older running 872 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 3: back that that's playing at the level that he's playing at, 873 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 3: but the way he takes care of his body, the 874 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 3: way he's meticulous about his diet. 875 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 1: I now have a greater understanding why. 876 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah Now, Jamar Chase, Bengals wide receiver, says the Bengals 877 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: quarterback Joe Burrow should be more vocal now, can it 878 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: play a change his personality. If he's not really a 879 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 2: vocal kind of guy. 880 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 1: You have to be who you are. So you got 881 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: to lead in your own way. 882 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 3: And so if you're amped up, a guy that likes confrontation, 883 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 3: a guy that doesn't mind using some spicy language, then 884 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 3: you do that. If you're more reserved, then your performance 885 00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 3: got to speak for yourself. 886 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 2: And that goes for coaches too. You gotta be real 887 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 2: players could see right through if the coaches being phoni 888 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 2: are not right, this is where he is. Like Marv 889 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 2: Levy would never cuss or either Tony Dungee. That's the 890 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 2: way it is, all right, Why is one NFL quarterback struggling? 891 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks has the answer? Where how Fox Football Sunday 892 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 2: coming up right here next?

And 902 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 2: this is in my mind, the best part of this 903 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 2: show because this is where we highlight Bucky Brooks because 904 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 2: he has the most intelligence of any football guy. We 905 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 2: asked him the question in last hour, but the best 906 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 2: football commentator, I would say it's Bucky Brooks. Really, Brooks 907 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 2: basically is yes, yes, don't be shy. 908 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: I wish I could take that title. I wish I 909 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: could take that title. In game you will that. 910 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 2: I promise you should be doing NFL games for Fox 911 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 2: And that's going to happen down the road that I know, 912 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 2: I feel it. I do NFL dot Com every week, 913 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: you have a column. You're on Fox Sports as well, 914 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 2: but I like the NFL dot Com. And this week 915 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,839 Speaker 2: he wrote about what is wrong with Caleb Williams. If 916 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 2: you remember now going back on time with Caleb Williams 917 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 2: and Jayden Daniels are the first two players selected in 918 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 2: the draft last April. Now, all of a sudden, Jayden 919 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 2: Daniels is like emerged as a wowee kind of guy 920 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 2: and Caleb Williams is well the number one pick for 921 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 2: the Bears, He's struggling. Passed a riding sixty five percent, 922 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 2: the lowest among NFC quarterbacks. I'm gonna say right here 923 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 2: and now, it's not entirely his fault. Tell me, look, 924 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 2: the Bears have the worst offense in the conference of 925 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty nine yards a game, So it 926 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 2: can't be entirely his fault. What is wrong? But Kee Brooks, 927 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 2: you wrote about it. What's wrong with Caleb Williams. 928 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 1: There are a few things wrong. 929 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 3: One, he's a victim of his own circumstance in terms 930 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 3: of everyone over hyped him coming into the situation. Right, 931 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 3: the Bears for so long had the number one overall pick. 932 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 3: There was a constant conversation between Kayler Williams and Justin 933 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 3: Fields going back to last regular season. 934 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: So Bears fans. 935 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,359 Speaker 3: Were convinced that they were getting the next coming right, 936 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 3: the next generational quarterback to come through. And unfortunately, he's 937 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 3: a really good prospect, but he's not what everyone kind 938 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 3: of made him out to be. And you now put 939 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 3: him in a situation where they upgraded the personnel around 940 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 3: the team, right, They added wide receivers and Keenan Allen, 941 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 3: roma Doonsa, you get DeAndre Swift, you have colcamed and 942 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 3: Gerald Everett and those guys. You feel like you're good 943 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 3: enough with the offensive line. And what hasn't happened. He 944 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 3: hasn't hit the ground run. But you got to remember 945 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 3: he didn't come into the league with the kind of 946 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 3: experience that Jayden Daniels had. Jade Daniels had fifty five 947 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 3: collegiate stars, bo Nicks had sixty four collegiate starts. Katy 948 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 3: Williams was in the high thirties, not quite forty, and 949 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 3: he's learning how to play, but he's also learning that 950 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 3: the NFL game is so different in the college game, 951 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 3: speed of the defense, complexity of the defense, how quickly 952 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 3: everyone reacts, and some of the things that he was 953 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 3: able to get away with big play hunting at USC, 954 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 3: he can't do that in Chicago. And so his game 955 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 3: won't improve until he's able to be more of an 956 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 3: on schedule, on rhythm type passer. And that's hard to 957 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,720 Speaker 3: do for someone who has always lived on improvisation. 958 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 2: So are you telling me that when these personnel people 959 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,720 Speaker 2: and scouts are in that warroom getting ready to draft, 960 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 2: and they're going to draft the quarterback. Not only did 961 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 2: he look at tons of tape and look at a 962 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 2: competition they played against and maybe the lead they played, 963 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: and they look to see how many games they played, 964 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 2: because that really helps as far as going into the 965 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 2: next level. 966 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,280 Speaker 3: Is that what they absolutely absolutely going back to Bill Parcells, 967 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 3: Bill Parcels used to have overrule. Now it has to 968 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 3: be updated to fit the day's model. But what Bill 969 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 3: Parcells wanted, he wanted guys that had started two and 970 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 3: a half years. He wanted guys that had logged thirty starts, 971 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 3: twenty three wins, college graduates, four year players. Because the 972 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 3: position requires a certain maturity to be able to be successful. 973 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 3: The position is a leadership position more than just a 974 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 3: talent position. You have to be able to convey what 975 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 3: is needed to grownups that are older than you and 976 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 3: handle yourself and it takes a mature player to do that. 977 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: Experience matters. 978 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,879 Speaker 3: One of the reasons why Brock Perdy, in my mind, 979 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,359 Speaker 3: has been so successful. Man he played, had forty nine 980 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 3: starts that iowould state, won thirty games, set a ton 981 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 3: of w records in cycle on history. 982 00:44:58,440 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a. 983 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 3: Good player and that's he felt like he could be 984 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 3: a good player with the Niners. Experience matters, and we're 985 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 3: seeing more of the young quarterbacks that are having success 986 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 3: are guys who played a long time in college to 987 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 3: get those reps. 988 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 2: It's amazing, and you really you don't hear a lot 989 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 2: about that from the soul called draft experts. 990 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 4: You think about that. 991 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 2: I mean, it always give you the stats what they 992 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 2: did in college, but they don't really tell you how 993 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 2: many games they've played. 994 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 4: That's the key right there. 995 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 2: Looking that with the forty nine ers, they got to 996 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 2: bust two years ago in their quarterback, right, he hardly 997 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 2: played it all. Plus he played at a team that 998 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 2: you wouldn't consider a major power, right. 999 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 3: Small school, Yeah, right, something, there's something in my mind, 1000 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 3: there's something to that too. I want big school players 1001 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,359 Speaker 3: log significant snaps. I want to play against the best 1002 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 3: of the best, so I can have an idea of 1003 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 3: what they're going to play like and people can say, oh, well, 1004 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 3: you're missing whatever, the diamond in the rough, the hidden gym. 1005 00:45:55,440 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 3: But part of scouting is eliminating some of the rips. 1006 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 3: I want to eliminate the risk by being able to 1007 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 3: create the best players playing against the best players so 1008 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 3: that I can get a better assessment of who they are, 1009 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 3: what they are, and how they're going to play at 1010 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 3: the next level. 1011 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 2: Okay, so now we're in the three weeks in the 1012 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: season right now, as you mentioned, Caleb and the Bears 1013 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 2: have struggled. They're one and two. Jaden and the Commanders 1014 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 2: are tied for first place at two and one, and 1015 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 2: what are they doing. Everybody's raving about the number two 1016 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 2: overall pick, which to me, he's gonna put a lot 1017 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 2: more pressure on Caleb Williams. You believe me, he sees this, 1018 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 2: he hears, does he reads it? I mean that's pressure. 1019 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 2: And you got to get a coach. I would think 1020 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 2: that gets him and one on one and say, look 1021 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 2: forget about the outside noises. This is what you gotta do. 1022 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 2: But he's not getting much help from his running game either. 1023 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 2: In Chicago with DeAndre Swift thirty seven carries for sixty 1024 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 2: eight yards. You got to get a running gate to 1025 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 2: help this quarterback out. That's the key too. 1026 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 3: You do have to get there, but you have to 1027 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 3: be intentional. Now, remember they brought Shane Waldron over from 1028 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 3: the Seattle Seahawks, and for whatever reason, the second year 1029 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 3: of his tenuresc kind of fell apart and we don't 1030 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 3: know how it's being put together. You talk about the 1031 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,479 Speaker 3: running game and those things. Here's what I know, Kaylyn 1032 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 3: Williams is being used too much. Like in basketball they 1033 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 3: talk about usage rate. Well, when I look at the 1034 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,400 Speaker 3: pass attempts that Kayld Williams has had, he has one 1035 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 3: hundred and eighteen pass attempts through three games, fifty two 1036 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 3: against the Bears, Way too many. Most young quarterbacks, you 1037 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 3: want to ease them in. You put them on a 1038 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:35,839 Speaker 3: pitch count twenty five to thirty passes a game, not 1039 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,719 Speaker 3: fifty two. It's too much for someone who's inexperience to 1040 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 3: play against defenses and have that much exposure to hits 1041 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 3: and conflicting coverage opportunities. 1042 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: They got to scale it back. 1043 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,400 Speaker 3: Less is more, and if they do fewer things with 1044 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 3: them fewer opportunities, he will get better because he'll have 1045 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 3: a better understanding of how to play the game. 1046 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 2: You know, I've said this once and I don't see 1047 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,479 Speaker 2: a lot of things that really makes sense, but I'll 1048 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 2: say this, I'm surprised no one has ever done a 1049 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 2: statistical study on this that when you look at the 1050 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 2: box scores late on the Sunday night or early Monday morning. 1051 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 2: Any quarterback that slows for thirty five or more attempts 1052 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,239 Speaker 2: more often than not that team lost. Do you agree. 1053 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 2: I mean, and no one has ever really done a 1054 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:22,760 Speaker 2: comparative study or statistical study on that fact. I'm telling 1055 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 2: you thirty five attempts are more during a game, more 1056 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 2: often than not, that team has lost the game. They're 1057 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 2: come up from behind, it they got to pass. 1058 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1059 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 3: And some people will say, well, there's no direct correlation 1060 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 3: because time on tasks, right, So depending on game circumstance 1061 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 3: and those things, you can't dictate that. But there is 1062 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 3: something to saying. We want to make sure that we 1063 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 3: limit his opportunities. We want to make sure we keep 1064 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 3: them on a bit of a pitch count. We want 1065 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 3: to be intentional about running the football and taking it 1066 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 3: off his shoulders. 1067 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: We want to make sure everyone in the. 1068 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 3: Building understands we are a complimentary football team, meaning we 1069 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 3: need to run under football, we need to play great defense. 1070 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna slowly. 1071 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 3: Give him the reins, but he may not get the 1072 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 3: full offense or the four run of the show until 1073 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 3: after midway in the season. Early in the year we 1074 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 3: need him to manage the game. Later in the year, 1075 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 3: maybe he can take on. But yeah, it has to 1076 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 3: be a concerted effort by the entire team when you're 1077 00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:21,760 Speaker 3: playing a young quarterback. 1078 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 2: There we go. Let's talk about the Bengals. They got 1079 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 2: a young quarterback and Joe Burrow and they're playing the 1080 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 2: Panthers today. Bengals have not won a game, which I'm 1081 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 2: surprised that a lot of people around the League of 1082 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 2: surprise the Panthers one. Last week they're one and two. 1083 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,880 Speaker 2: Bengals lost to the Commanders. Thirty eight thirty three is 1084 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 2: the most points that Washington Commanders have scored in four years. 1085 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,360 Speaker 2: It's amazing Panthers beat the Raiders. That was a shot 1086 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,799 Speaker 2: to thirty six twenty two of them. And I'm talking 1087 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 2: about not personnel, because you know, everybody sits around they 1088 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 2: talk about personnel, the matchups. You know, I think there's 1089 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 2: a lot to be said about attitude, attitude, and I 1090 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 2: look at this Bengals team and when I think of 1091 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 2: they talk too much, I hear Jamar Chase says, where 1092 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,240 Speaker 2: the team to beat? Jamar, you know what you forgot 1093 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,919 Speaker 2: if you got to say what year? You know where 1094 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 2: the team to beat. Are you are you freaking kidding me? 1095 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:09,759 Speaker 4: What have you done? 1096 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 2: And then last week before they played the Commanders, their 1097 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,760 Speaker 2: quarterback Cam Taylor brit says, uh, that we're playing against 1098 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 2: a high school offense. How do you How does a 1099 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 2: coach let these guys say these things? It would never 1100 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 2: happen with Mike Tomlin that I promise you a guy 1101 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 2: would never open his mouth on a Mike Tomlin coach team. 1102 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong, you tell me. 1103 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: You know, it's a fine line, right. 1104 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,360 Speaker 3: You want your players to be themselves, but you also 1105 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:38,399 Speaker 3: want them to always protect the team. You want them 1106 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 3: to not engage in things that are going to kind 1107 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,760 Speaker 3: of bring about what we call like the bulletin board material. 1108 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 1: Right, we want to kind of keep it in perspective. Uh. 1109 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 3: Man, it looks it's tough sometimes though to keep them 1110 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:54,839 Speaker 3: to keep it all together. But I will say this, Uh, 1111 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,479 Speaker 3: they got to play better, you know, And I would 1112 00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 3: say this, it's kind of what happens when your team 1113 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 3: is fractured. Right, So when you don't get everybody signed, 1114 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,280 Speaker 3: you have contract issues that linger into the season. 1115 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: You get some of this. 1116 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 3: So the t Higgins thing, t Higgins not getting his 1117 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 3: deals Jamar Chase not getting his deal done. 1118 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: Well, you got two guys that are not happy. 1119 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,399 Speaker 3: You know they're not They're disgruntled, and they can kind 1120 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 3: of play behind it like no, no, no, they'll be okay, 1121 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,280 Speaker 3: but they're not happy. And so if you're not happy, 1122 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 3: it's going to show up in your interactions with the 1123 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:34,880 Speaker 3: team and those things. 1124 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 1: And I think that's what you're seeing. 1125 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 3: You're seeing a team that is not fully connected, and 1126 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 3: that's why they're not able to be able to get 1127 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 3: these doves to. 1128 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 1: Get these wins. 1129 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 2: I'll tell you who's not happy right now, probably Bryce Young. 1130 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 2: He was bench last week in that Carolina team and 1131 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 2: the Panthers won and they beat the Radies. As I mentioned, 1132 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 2: so Andy Dolton comes off the bench for the Panthers, 1133 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 2: throws for three hundred and nineteen yards, throw us for 1134 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 2: three touchdowns. And I found this out. This is an 1135 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,760 Speaker 2: amazing stat Really, Andy Dalton is in the top twenty 1136 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 2: five old time NFL quarterbacks and touchdowns thrown. He has 1137 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty nine career touchdowns. He's trailing Drew 1138 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 2: Bledsoell right now at two fifty one and Dan Fouts 1139 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 2: at two fifty four and I'll tell you right now, 1140 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 2: he'll pass those guys today because I'm telling you with 1141 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 2: the fracture, as you mentioned with the Bengals, Carolina's gonna win. 1142 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,440 Speaker 2: The Panthers are going to beat the Bengals today in Carolina. 1143 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,240 Speaker 2: Dalton is three and one against his foreign team, the Bengals. 1144 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 2: So I'm telling you here, Bengals go on four. 1145 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:31,919 Speaker 4: Not good. 1146 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 2: Not good for Zach Taylor. I tell you that much. 1147 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:35,280 Speaker 2: That's not good for him. 1148 00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 1: What do you think? Yeah? 1149 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 3: But that's yeah, but that's what they always start slow 1150 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 3: under Zach Taylor. Like that's kind of part of the deal, 1151 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:49,439 Speaker 3: you know. So this is funny because Andy Dalton played 1152 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 3: so well last week? Can he really replicate that? Can 1153 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 3: he do that again? 1154 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: Though? Can he? 1155 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,879 Speaker 3: I mean everything kind of fill into place for him. 1156 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 3: I don't know if he truly can do it all 1157 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 3: over free in player. 1158 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:04,760 Speaker 2: He's going against the team that can't stop the run. 1159 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 2: That's for sure. They run the football. They'll win that 1160 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 2: ball game today, they really will. So we'll see what happens. Okay, 1161 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 2: let's talk about your Jacksonville Jags. They're owing three as well. 1162 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,360 Speaker 2: They're playing at Texas at Houston and playing the Texans. 1163 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:16,799 Speaker 4: They're two. 1164 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,280 Speaker 2: And when your Jags lost big time to the Bills, 1165 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 2: and that was really no surprise at Bills to me 1166 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 2: might be the best team in football right now, forty. 1167 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 4: Seven to ten. 1168 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 2: They lose. The Texans lost though, to the Vikes thirty 1169 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: four to seven. They lost big. So what the JAG's 1170 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,280 Speaker 2: got to do? And you know better than me because 1171 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 2: you're a Jag Okay, not that a Jack or a Jaguar. Okay, Jack, guy, 1172 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 2: I know, Jack. They got to run the ball. Don't 1173 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 2: get into a shootout in this game. You got to 1174 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,879 Speaker 2: eat up the clock. I mean, this is common sense, really, 1175 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 2: but that's the game plan really. And your defense. You 1176 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,439 Speaker 2: got to get a pass rush. You got to show 1177 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 2: me something. You got to rush the passer. You got 1178 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 2: a young secondary. So what's gonna happen. The Texans are 1179 00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:57,360 Speaker 2: gonna go with Stefan Diggs and Nico Collins or to 1180 00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 2: attack the secondary. That's it, right, that's basically the game. 1181 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:03,399 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, look, it's gonna be a big part 1182 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:08,320 Speaker 1: of it. So here's what I say about the Jags. 1183 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 3: The Jags thing is more of a confidence thing than 1184 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 3: anything else. So when you collapse the way that you 1185 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,839 Speaker 3: collapse at the end of last year. Everything is magnified 1186 00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,280 Speaker 3: when you don't have things go your way very early 1187 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,959 Speaker 3: in the year. And what has happened is those little 1188 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 3: hiccups have become bigger because of the hangover from last year. 1189 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 3: What the Jags need is they just kind of need 1190 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 3: to let it go and let it play. They're good 1191 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 3: enough to win games, they're good enough to play at 1192 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,799 Speaker 3: a level where you can see them emerge as one 1193 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 3: of the top teams. 1194 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: But they have to do it. They can't talk about it. 1195 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 1: They have to do it. 1196 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:45,240 Speaker 3: And so until they just lock in focus and play well, 1197 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 3: it's kind of hard to say that they're gonna be 1198 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 3: able to get dubs. 1199 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: They got to lock in and play well. 1200 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 4: Well. 1201 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,280 Speaker 2: I look the Texas. They put pressure on Trevor Lawrence. 1202 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:56,839 Speaker 2: He's a turnover machine. Anyway they put pressure on Trevor Lawrence, 1203 00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 2: they could get ugly, you know, because he just had 1204 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 2: that thing. He turns the ball over. I mean, he's 1205 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,480 Speaker 2: a skilled quarterback, but if he has one drawback the 1206 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,240 Speaker 2: Achilles heel with Trevor Lawrence, he's a turnover machine. 1207 00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 1: He really is. 1208 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 3: Look and he may be, but here's what I will say. 1209 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,879 Speaker 3: He needs to play I would say more with more 1210 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,759 Speaker 3: edge and more to the line, meaning you need to 1211 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,240 Speaker 3: push him to a let it go man, don't worry 1212 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,960 Speaker 3: about the turnovers and the mistakes, let it go, cut 1213 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 3: it loose, because after watching Josh Allen play care free 1214 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 3: and loose and all of that, I just think it's 1215 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 3: a big part. 1216 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:32,399 Speaker 1: Of who he needs to be. 1217 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 3: He needs to be fearless and courageous and go after 1218 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 3: and not worry about some of the mistakes because he'll 1219 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 3: eventually find that line in those boundaries. But trying to 1220 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,759 Speaker 3: play perfect, you're not getting the best version of him. 1221 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this, the Texans don't have much of 1222 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 2: a run game. And looking back now in Week one 1223 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,360 Speaker 2: they played the Colts, they are twenty nine points and 1224 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,959 Speaker 2: two hundred and thirteen yards on the ground. The last 1225 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:57,800 Speaker 2: two weeks for the Texans, they've matched those numbers. They 1226 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,759 Speaker 2: can't even match those numbers for the first week for 1227 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 2: the last two weeks for the Texans. So they're gonna pass. 1228 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 2: They're gonna test out the Jaguarts a young secondary and 1229 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 2: with Stefan Diggs and Nico Collins, I could have a 1230 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 2: big day. And I don't want to say who's gonna 1231 00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 2: win this one? Because I don't want to hurt your feelings. 1232 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,440 Speaker 2: You had a bed enough day yesterday with North Carolina losing. 1233 00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,000 Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna go saying the Texans are gonna win. 1234 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,919 Speaker 2: I hope it's competitive, and for yours say, I hope 1235 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 2: Jacksonville wins. I do. I hope Jacksonville wins. I don't 1236 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 2: think they will, but I hope they do. 1237 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 4: I really. 1238 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, it's hard, they haven't played well. The Texas 1239 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 1: are smarting. 1240 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 3: From a big loss and embarrassing loss to the Minnesota Vikings. 1241 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,759 Speaker 3: It's not ideal, but this is a rivalry where I 1242 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 3: think the last five games the road team is won. 1243 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:42,280 Speaker 1: We will see. 1244 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:44,719 Speaker 3: This is actually the last place that Trevor Lawrence got 1245 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 3: to win. It's been that long. It's been a full 1246 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,840 Speaker 3: year since he's gotta win. So maybe today it turns around. 1247 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 2: He's Bucket Brooks, get him on X, get him on Twitter, 1248 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. Yoz at Bucket Brooks 1249 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 2: and Andy Ferman that FasR A and today will have 1250 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,680 Speaker 2: that's Houston time. Of course, Mike Harmer will be here 1251 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 2: to get him at Swollen Dome or eight seven seven 1252 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,520 Speaker 2: ninety nine on Fox. That's eight seven, seven, nine, ninety 1253 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:10,280 Speaker 2: six sixty three sixty nine bottom barrel betting in this hour. 1254 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 2: And of course there's a reason this team won't compete. 1255 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you why next. It was an improbable comeback. 1256 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 2: That's coming right up. This is Fox Football Sunday on 1257 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.

Now, let's get back to football. 1266 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 2: This surprise team, I think right now, besides Minnesota, it's 1267 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,800 Speaker 2: got to be the Pittsburgh Steels that all the media say, oh, 1268 00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 2: quarterback controversy, this and that another is it? Because right 1269 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 2: now the controversy might be the Steelers, maybe willing Detroit 1270 00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson because justin fields right now is pretty effective. 1271 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 2: Steele is a three and zero. They're playing the Colts 1272 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:11,920 Speaker 2: today in Indie. They're one and two. Last week the 1273 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 2: Steelers beat the Charges twenty ten. Colts beeat the Bears 1274 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 2: twenty one sixteen. What makes Justin Field so effective I'm saying, 1275 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 2: but I say, because their defense is so good that 1276 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 2: makes him effective. Takes a lot of pressure off them. 1277 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 2: Is that a correct answer. 1278 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 3: I think it goes beyond that. I think what has 1279 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,439 Speaker 3: happened is Justin Fields. 1280 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 1: Is in the right spot for him. 1281 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 3: He is the right offensive coordinator in Arthur Smith, who 1282 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 3: understands how to build a running game and a complimentary 1283 00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 3: passing game that works for a mobile quarterback. You got 1284 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 3: to remember Arthur Smith Hill Ryan Tannehill resurrect his career 1285 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:52,640 Speaker 3: in Tennessee play action passing, using his athleticism to get 1286 00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 3: on the perimeter, gave some run pass options in those 1287 00:58:55,640 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 3: things in Pittsburgh. Because the city understands that running in 1288 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 3: defense has produced championships for them in the past, they 1289 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 3: can lean a little more into what we call ugly football, 1290 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 3: old school football, where you're running and doing things, and 1291 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:15,160 Speaker 3: in turn they're able to utilize Justin fields athleticism, his 1292 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:20,000 Speaker 3: running skills, and his improving passing ability to score just 1293 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 3: enough to win games. To me, this is a perfect 1294 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 3: fit in Pittsburgh. Justin Fields is the young, dynamic quarterback 1295 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 3: that they needed. He'll continue to grow and get better, 1296 00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 3: but it works when he doesn't turn the ball over. 1297 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 3: He hasn't turned the ball over, so they won games. 1298 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 3: That's why it's a really really good fit. 1299 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:37,439 Speaker 1: Right now. 1300 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:40,360 Speaker 2: His pass average right now is like seventy three percent 1301 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,960 Speaker 2: fifty five for seventy five five hundred and eighteen odds two touchdowns. 1302 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 2: And we'll talk about now what you had mentioned early 1303 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 2: on comes to pass as far as the culture concern 1304 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:51,560 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson, he's got to play better. Why he didn't 1305 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 2: have a lot of experience coming into the league either. 1306 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 2: You know, whatever you said about these quarterbacks having more 1307 00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 2: play in college before they get to the NFL makes 1308 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 2: a big difference, and it certainly he's making a difference. 1309 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 2: When Anthony Richardson right now, he's got a forty nine 1310 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 2: percent completion rate, which is the bottom of the league. 1311 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 4: He's got to play better. 1312 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 2: And you know what, he's not going to see a 1313 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 2: pass rush like he has never seen before today when 1314 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 2: the steal is good after him today, it's gonna be unbelievable. 1315 01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 2: They're going to shut down Jonathan Taylor and boy, he's 1316 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 2: going to be running for his life. 1317 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's the thing. Anthony Richardson is a 1318 01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 3: guy who's been a flash. But okay, we talk about experience. 1319 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:30,440 Speaker 3: I think Anthony Richardson has only played nineteen games as 1320 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 3: a starting quarterback since. 1321 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: He left high school. That's not a lot of experience. 1322 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 3: And so when people wonder about these mistakes and errors 1323 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 3: that he make, some of those are he's on the 1324 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 3: job training. No matter how many playmakers or athletes should 1325 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 3: put around him, he has to go through some of 1326 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 3: this stuff because that's just part of the maturation process. 1327 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 3: And unfortunately for Coots fans, he's having to do it 1328 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,520 Speaker 3: while he's with the coach. He didn't get a chance 1329 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,080 Speaker 3: to do that when he was at Florida elsewhere they 1330 01:00:59,120 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 3: got to live through this. 1331 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 1: He's talented. 1332 01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 3: He's gonna have flashes that are going to make you 1333 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 3: really excited about what he could be. 1334 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: But he's not a finished. 1335 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 3: Product yet, and you hope that the rest of the 1336 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 3: team can take care of him until he is able 1337 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 3: to kind of flip it and become the playmaker that 1338 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 3: they need him to be. 1339 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 2: And you're going to see him next week. He's coming 1340 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 2: to Jacksonville. And this way you Jags will gotta win 1341 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 2: next week because they can play the Colts in Jacksonville 1342 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 2: next week. See she feels good about that. 1343 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 1: Can't look at, can't look at, can't look ahead. 1344 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 3: It's a week the week league. You never know what's 1345 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 3: gonna happen. He could light it up. 1346 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 2: I think that's well, we'll see, well, who knows. 1347 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 3: Now. 1348 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 2: The Rams are playing in Chicago to Both teams are 1349 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 2: one and two. Last week, the Rams beat the forty 1350 01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 2: nine and that was unbelievable finish twenty seven to twenty four. 1351 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 2: Of the Bears lost that in the twenty one to sixteen. 1352 01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 2: But the Rams are still down their wide receivers Cooper 1353 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 2: Cup and Pooka Nakoua. They're down, but they still won. 1354 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 2: They've got their run game of Kareean Williams. He had 1355 01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:55,600 Speaker 2: three touchdowns against the forty nine ers last week. And 1356 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,520 Speaker 2: the Bears against the Colts last week gave up one 1357 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty yards on the ground. I would say 1358 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 2: right now the Rams should be two and two by 1359 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 2: the end of the day today and the Bears fall 1360 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 2: to one and three. Really, there's some doubt here. I'm 1361 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 2: hearing some doubt. 1362 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. Man, The bears oftense scares me. Man, 1363 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:21,479 Speaker 1: it's so bad. Keenan Allen comes back, so that's your help. 1364 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 3: But man, I understand why you want to lean that way. 1365 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:29,440 Speaker 3: Keenan Allen should be a big hip. Okay, let's go 1366 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 3: that way. I'll go with the Bears because Keenan Allen 1367 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:31,680 Speaker 3: comes back. 1368 01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 1: But I don't have a lot of confidence. 1369 01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think you should. All right, you're going 1370 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 2: with the Bears. I'm going with the Rams. There we go, 1371 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 2: all right, he's Bucket Brooks. I'm made it from we 1372 01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 2: are Fox Football Sunday and Fox Sports. Ready, now, one 1373 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 2: NFL quarterback is rushing to the top. That's next. But first, 1374 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 2: this man is already. 1375 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 4: On top, on top of his game, on top of 1376 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 4: all these there you go, on top of all these 1377 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 4: NFL injuries. As we're just a few hours away from 1378 01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 4: kicking off Week four. Already in the NFL, Adam Schefter 1379 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 4: saying that DeVante Adams, pulling up lame in Raiders practice 1380 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 4: on Thursday, grabbed his hamstring and it's an injury that 1381 01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:13,320 Speaker 4: is expected to sideline him on a week to week basis, 1382 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 4: and he added onto that just maybe half an hour 1383 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 4: or so ago, saying the Raiders rejected multiple teams that 1384 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 4: approached them over to some er over the summer inquiring 1385 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 4: whether Devontae Adams would be available in a trade, and 1386 01:03:27,120 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 4: the Raiders considered a trade a non starter and turned 1387 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,400 Speaker 4: away teams before they could even consider, before the teams 1388 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 4: could even present an offer, so that might be backfiring 1389 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 4: on Las Vegas. Adam Schefter also saying that Justin Herbert, 1390 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,920 Speaker 4: free of setbacks, is preparing to play for the LA 1391 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 4: Chargers today against the Kansas City chiefs Ian Rappaport with 1392 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 4: a few injury updates overnight. Reshad White, dealing with a 1393 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 4: food poisoning issue, is recovered rapidly, so he is expected 1394 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 4: to play today. Forty nine Ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel 1395 01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 4: and left tackle Trent Williams are both listed as questionable 1396 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 4: and are likely to play, with the report by Rappaport 1397 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,880 Speaker 4: saying Williams being active could hinge on a pregame workout, 1398 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 4: but there is optimism he will be able to go. 1399 01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:19,440 Speaker 4: Texans running back Joe Mixon is considered a game time 1400 01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 4: decision with his ankle injury. He's been trying to get 1401 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 4: back to play. It was an uphill climb and he's 1402 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:27,919 Speaker 4: gonna test it out and see if he'll be able 1403 01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:30,280 Speaker 4: to go.

I mean, this 1458 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,560 Speaker 2: guy's come to life this year for the Commanders. He 1459 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 2: really has. 1460 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, he has come to life. 1461 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 3: But when you come to life when you have a 1462 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 3: really good quarterback, and he has a really good quarterback 1463 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 3: that's doing a really good job of finding him in 1464 01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 3: key moments. It's great that we are now gaining a 1465 01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:47,120 Speaker 3: true appreciation for how good he is. He's been good 1466 01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:50,040 Speaker 3: for a while, he just dosn't have the opportunities to 1467 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,280 Speaker 3: really showcase it. But now he has an exciting quarterback. 1468 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 3: He's touching the rock, he's been able to make plays. 1469 01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 3: People now understand how good Scary Tearry. 1470 01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 2: Is no doubt that Jayden Daniels' quarterbacks at a rookie 1471 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:05,200 Speaker 2: record for completions in that game last week ninety one 1472 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 2: point three percent. And the Commander is this is an 1473 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 2: unbelievable statistic. They haven't punked it in a game since 1474 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 2: the first week of the season. That's an amazing stat 1475 01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 2: It really is tells you a lot about their offense. 1476 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:16,520 Speaker 2: It really does. 1477 01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 3: Look fourteenth Street drive that they've scored, that they've scored 1478 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 3: home unless it's ended in a kneel down at the game. 1479 01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:25,160 Speaker 1: That tells you're hot. 1480 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:28,639 Speaker 3: That is Look, that's remarkable production of National Football League. 1481 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 1: You don't get that. 1482 01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,800 Speaker 3: It tells you how good they're playing, how good the 1483 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 3: young quarterback is playing. 1484 01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,320 Speaker 2: It really does. Okay, talk about the Carlos, talk about quarterbacks. 1485 01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:40,040 Speaker 2: Carlin Murray his ten point seven yards per rush tops 1486 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:43,760 Speaker 2: the league. He's a rushing leader with players with ten 1487 01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 2: or more attempts. So in this game, I gotta believe. 1488 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 2: And there's so many intangibles you talk about, you know, 1489 01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:52,720 Speaker 2: players and matchups as I mentioned early on, and the 1490 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,320 Speaker 2: fact that it's a car at Arizona. I just think 1491 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,920 Speaker 2: that top to bottom, the Cardinals are a better team. 1492 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 2: I just think they have better personnel, are better team. 1493 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 2: But this command, this team has got a lot of confidence, 1494 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 2: and I think that goes a long way when you're 1495 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 2: playing football with a young team. They got the confidence. Now, 1496 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 2: two wins in a row and beating up on Cincinnati 1497 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 2: on a Monday night game, a nationally televised game in Cincinnati, 1498 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 2: that's gonna go a long way. May not today, but 1499 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,800 Speaker 2: I think eventually it's going to go a long way 1500 01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 2: for that team. 1501 01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:27,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, the currents are interesting squad because, 1502 01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 3: like quietly, Calla Murray has found this group and Jonathan 1503 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 3: Gannon breathing all their confidence into him certainly has helped 1504 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,000 Speaker 3: him and it continue to help them. I kind of 1505 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:38,639 Speaker 3: like what they got going on. I'm gonna go with them. 1506 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay. Now we've got the Patriots at the forty 1507 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 2: nine ers. Both teams have a record of one and two, 1508 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:47,559 Speaker 2: but they're like night and day. They're just two different teams. 1509 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 2: I would tell you right here and now the magic 1510 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:51,680 Speaker 2: has gone from the New England Patriots. And as long 1511 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:54,679 Speaker 2: as the season continues the way it's going, that loss 1512 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,320 Speaker 2: that the Bengals had opening Day to them looks even 1513 01:09:57,360 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 2: worse down the stretch. It's the good thing that the 1514 01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:02,080 Speaker 2: Bengals are I'm playing in college because that would really 1515 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 2: hurt them as far as postseason tournament play would be concerned. 1516 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:08,639 Speaker 2: But in the NFL it's a different animal. That loss 1517 01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:11,840 Speaker 2: to them will be. It's just to be devastating when 1518 01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 2: the year is over. But Patriots lost last week twenty 1519 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 2: four to three at the Jets. The forty nine has 1520 01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 2: lost in a heartbreaker really to the Rams at the 1521 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,599 Speaker 2: Rams last week twenty seven to twenty four, and let's 1522 01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 2: face it, the Patriots have one of the league's worst offenses. 1523 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 2: They've got to try to establish the run game with Stevenson, 1524 01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:29,360 Speaker 2: who's basically their ray of hope, and that's it. That's 1525 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:30,360 Speaker 2: it for them, It really is. 1526 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,519 Speaker 1: That is it for them. I'm worried about the Niners 1527 01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:35,839 Speaker 1: being together, being connected. 1528 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 3: I don't know if you had a chance see the 1529 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:39,840 Speaker 3: video Kyle Shanahan having to kind of get on Brandon 1530 01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:42,080 Speaker 3: Ayuk because he didn't comply with the dress code that 1531 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 3: they had to practice. But it appears to be something 1532 01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 3: continued to go on with Brandon Ayuk within the squad. 1533 01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, man, these contracts, when these guys are 1534 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:53,920 Speaker 3: not connected, it's hard to get your team to play 1535 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 3: at a high level. And they're just not together and 1536 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 3: coming on the heels of this Super Bowl loss, I 1537 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,519 Speaker 3: knew it was gonna be challenging. It just seems like 1538 01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 3: me Kyle's having a tough time getting them all on 1539 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 3: the same page. 1540 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 2: Okay, then that brings up an interesting lie. I mean, 1541 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:12,400 Speaker 2: you got to catch an attitude because a I didn't 1542 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 2: get my money. You know, you put the tag on 1543 01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 2: me like t Higgins in Cincinnati, And I'm saying to myself, 1544 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:20,720 Speaker 2: if I'm a general manager of another team, do I 1545 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 2: want an attitude on my team? He may be a 1546 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:25,040 Speaker 2: great player. T Higgins could be a could be a 1547 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 2: number one receiver, But do I want that problem or 1548 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:30,960 Speaker 2: a potential problem on my team? I mean, don't they 1549 01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:34,360 Speaker 2: understand that. Suck it up, play the game, do the 1550 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 2: best you can, and everything usually works out. This Jamar 1551 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 2: Chase thing, it's ugly in Cincinnati. It really was. Now 1552 01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:44,479 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, he says he's okay, he's got 1553 01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 2: a new attitude. He wants to play this again. I 1554 01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 2: just think that coaches are personnel people, general managers. They 1555 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 2: take a good hard look at the entire person, not 1556 01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:56,759 Speaker 2: just a skill set on the field. 1557 01:11:58,120 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 1: I mean they should, you know what I'm saying. 1558 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 3: You want your own guys that are that are committed, 1559 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,680 Speaker 3: that are that are locked in to be there. It's 1560 01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:07,640 Speaker 3: you know, look, it's a challenge. You don't understand that. 1561 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 3: And I understand, like all the other stuff that go 1562 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:14,080 Speaker 3: goes with it, right, and you want to get paid, 1563 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 3: you want you want to do your stuff. But it 1564 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 3: just seems like, man, they just having a tough time. 1565 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 3: These guys that are disgruntled, it's hard to bring them 1566 01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 3: back into the fold. 1567 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 1: No matter what happens. 1568 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:27,679 Speaker 3: Even if they get their money, still has some lingering effects. 1569 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 1: It appears on the squad. 1570 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:30,479 Speaker 5: You know. 1571 01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:33,360 Speaker 2: And the funny thing is is that when free agent 1572 01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 2: comes along, the free agency situation, and like a team 1573 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,759 Speaker 2: like Cincinnati and they didn't want to pay Jamar Chase. 1574 01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 2: Now I know eventually gonna pay him, I would think, 1575 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 2: I think they almost have to pay them because they 1576 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:46,800 Speaker 2: don't like to do those deals during the season. That's 1577 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,160 Speaker 2: gonna hurt them maybe down the road because other players 1578 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 2: they would say, I don't want to play there. You know, 1579 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 2: I don't like the way they treated Jamal, I like 1580 01:12:53,080 --> 01:12:54,880 Speaker 2: the way they treated t Higgins. I don't want to 1581 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,839 Speaker 2: go to Cincinnati. So it's a it's a domino effect. 1582 01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,840 Speaker 2: The players hurt, and they hurt the team because of 1583 01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:04,519 Speaker 2: their attitude, but it also management they hurt themselves because 1584 01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 2: it's the possibility of other players may not want to 1585 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,960 Speaker 2: play there because of that. It's ugly all the way around. 1586 01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 3: It is ugly all the way around, and it like 1587 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,320 Speaker 3: it hurts the team, hurts everybody involved. And so a 1588 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:19,840 Speaker 3: lot of times you try and have these disputes kind 1589 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,120 Speaker 3: of ironed out so everyone is on the same page 1590 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:25,040 Speaker 3: and you get everyone back to playing like they need 1591 01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:26,280 Speaker 3: to play so your team can win. 1592 01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 2: Is there a team out there that you have seen 1593 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:33,400 Speaker 2: from a distance, perhaps even that has not had these 1594 01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 2: internal stripes that go public as far as contracts and 1595 01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 2: signings and ripping up contracts when they have two years 1596 01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:42,880 Speaker 2: to go. I mean, what team do you know if 1597 01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:46,479 Speaker 2: you heard of that really is fairly smooth sailing? I 1598 01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 2: can't think of any, can you? 1599 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:48,519 Speaker 1: Maybe? 1600 01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:48,600 Speaker 6: No? 1601 01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:50,920 Speaker 3: I mean, it's always gonna be some hiccups and rows. 1602 01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 3: But what you like to do is you try and 1603 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:55,240 Speaker 3: get all this stuff. Look, there's the ebb and flow 1604 01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 3: of any negotiation, right, and normally deadlines. 1605 01:13:58,240 --> 01:13:59,680 Speaker 1: Bring about negotiations. 1606 01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,559 Speaker 3: But when you have heart and fast rules in terms of, 1607 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:04,760 Speaker 3: hey man, we're going to negotiate to training camp, but 1608 01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 3: after that it is done. And if you stick to that, well, 1609 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:09,240 Speaker 3: then you get deals done before training camp and they 1610 01:14:09,280 --> 01:14:12,920 Speaker 3: don't kind of start filtering and leanering into the season. 1611 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:15,400 Speaker 3: When you get into the season, there's so much stuff 1612 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:20,400 Speaker 3: going on. The last thing you need is someone complaining 1613 01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:24,200 Speaker 3: about the contract, someone trying to renegotiate the contract. In 1614 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,439 Speaker 3: those things, it just takes away from the focus of 1615 01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:26,960 Speaker 3: the team. 1616 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:27,800 Speaker 1: There you go. 1617 01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's Bucky Brooks.

Doug Lohman was 1798 01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 2: his name, and his name. He still lives here. But 1799 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,759 Speaker 2: they let him go three years ago. So I'm happy 1800 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:55,200 Speaker 2: they lose because they did him wrong. He was a 1801 01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 2: good man, Doug, and he did a good job for 1802 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:00,360 Speaker 2: him and they and Jerry Ryans, I'm sorry I let 1803 01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:02,640 Speaker 2: you go. You come on, really, he's been there like 1804 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 2: but thirty years or so, and he's been there with 1805 01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:07,160 Speaker 2: the good times and not a bit time. But since 1806 01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:09,840 Speaker 2: he left, they went down the cropper. And I'm glad 1807 01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:10,880 Speaker 2: because they did him wrong. 1808 01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:14,439 Speaker 4: Well, they've had maybe two good time years in his 1809 01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 4: longest market I have been alive. Mark Ramsey, our technical producer, 1810 01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:22,320 Speaker 4: always wearing his socks gear as well. But you know, 1811 01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:25,960 Speaker 4: you have a minor league organization that has been run terribly. 1812 01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:30,679 Speaker 4: My apologies and sadness for your friend there. So you're 1813 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 4: not bringing guys up. You don't spend any money. They 1814 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:37,160 Speaker 4: are one of three teams, along with the nomadic Oakland 1815 01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:40,280 Speaker 4: Athletics and the Tampa Bay Rays, as three teams that 1816 01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 4: have never given a guy one hundred million dollar deal. 1817 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 4: They tried the Atlanta Braves scenario in a short form 1818 01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:54,080 Speaker 4: with Eloy Jimenez and Luis Robert Jr. And Joann Mancata. 1819 01:23:54,160 --> 01:23:56,799 Speaker 4: Go look at their games played the last couple of years, 1820 01:23:57,040 --> 01:23:59,840 Speaker 4: and then Eloy Jimanez they trade him off to Baltimore. 1821 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 4: He got dfamed before the last game of the regular season. 1822 01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:08,719 Speaker 4: So all of that to say, you've got an organizational disaster. 1823 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 4: Many people wondering if they're going to move the team 1824 01:24:11,200 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 4: to Nashville. You know all of those things. Hey do weell? 1825 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 4: You got to keep threatening the municipality. You want more money. 1826 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:21,759 Speaker 4: Remember the last time they did that, it was supposed 1827 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:24,680 Speaker 4: to be cammed in yards and instead they got what 1828 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:28,840 Speaker 4: everybody hated at the time, what has been through ninety 1829 01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:32,000 Speaker 4: seven name changes as we sit here at guaranteed Raad 1830 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:36,800 Speaker 4: Field because they wanted public money, so they made him 1831 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:40,559 Speaker 4: build a multipurpose facility, which meant it was supposed to 1832 01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 4: house concerts and whatever else. Guess what it never did 1833 01:24:43,800 --> 01:24:46,719 Speaker 4: because the people at Soldier Field in the Park District 1834 01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 4: and everybody else ad we got a perfectly good sixty 1835 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:51,640 Speaker 4: thousand seat stadium over here where we can ruin the 1836 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 4: field for the team that plays there. Already bears say 1837 01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 4: what I did there? It all circles back. But you 1838 01:24:58,479 --> 01:25:00,680 Speaker 4: know what, it's a beautiful Sunday fellas. We've got one 1839 01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:03,320 Speaker 4: game in the book because of Week four already the 1840 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:06,040 Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys get a win. But what do they call it? 1841 01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:10,639 Speaker 4: The pyrrhic victory? As you lose both Lawrence and Micah 1842 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:15,400 Speaker 4: Parsons indefinitely, and now it all becomes and we won't 1843 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,559 Speaker 4: get to see it yet. But Dak Prescott, you know, 1844 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 4: for all the pressure that was on him before he 1845 01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:23,479 Speaker 4: signed the deal, now you lose the only two guys 1846 01:25:23,479 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 4: that were functional on your defense to this point, and 1847 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:30,000 Speaker 4: it becomes that much bigger, a glaring issue while you 1848 01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:32,799 Speaker 4: eke out a win against the New York Football Giants, 1849 01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:36,200 Speaker 4: a team that most people have already fired Dable bench 1850 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,720 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones and have reset them or relegated them like 1851 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 4: they're an EPL team. 1852 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:43,320 Speaker 2: You know, can I say one thing? I think Bucky 1853 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:45,040 Speaker 2: would really have an answer for me on this. I 1854 01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 2: hear media people talk all the time, Trevor Lawrence isn't 1855 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:52,920 Speaker 2: worth this, dak press because you know, the quarterbacks maybe 1856 01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:56,200 Speaker 2: I'm way off paid. They're not getting paid for their 1857 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 2: skill set of what they're worth. They're getting paid for 1858 01:25:58,479 --> 01:25:59,160 Speaker 2: what the market. 1859 01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:00,280 Speaker 4: Right. 1860 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, and the media people don't see to 1861 01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:06,479 Speaker 2: understand that, and defense certainly don't understand that. Yeah, certainly 1862 01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones was not worth forty million dollars, I promise you. 1863 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:13,120 Speaker 2: But that's the going rate of what it costs. Certainly 1864 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,880 Speaker 2: a car that you may purchase may not be worth that, 1865 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:18,479 Speaker 2: but it's the going rate of that car in that model. 1866 01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:19,760 Speaker 2: That's just the way it is. 1867 01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:21,800 Speaker 1: That is the way it is. 1868 01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 3: But what happens is internally in the locker room, right, 1869 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:30,200 Speaker 3: So no one is supposed to count everybody another person's money. 1870 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:32,840 Speaker 3: But when you're the Giants and you're in the locker 1871 01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:35,080 Speaker 3: room and everyone on the team knows that Saquon Barkley 1872 01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:39,759 Speaker 3: is the best player, and Saquon Barkley is like throwing 1873 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:42,360 Speaker 3: tantrums trying to get his money, and then they hand 1874 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:45,680 Speaker 3: forty million dollars to the quarterback who everyone knows is 1875 01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 3: depending upon the play of the running back, it creates 1876 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:51,840 Speaker 3: discord downstairs and the Giants de notre like, oh, no, 1877 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:54,519 Speaker 3: it's not that it's everyone understands is Daniels team. 1878 01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:56,599 Speaker 1: No, it was Saquan's team. 1879 01:26:56,960 --> 01:27:00,120 Speaker 3: And when you remove that, other players begin snickering and 1880 01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 3: talking like, man, they done that. Gonna pays the best player, 1881 01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,360 Speaker 3: he can't get his money. What does that mean for 1882 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:08,920 Speaker 3: me when it's time for me to come up. The 1883 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 3: other part of it is when you pay forty million dollars, 1884 01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:16,240 Speaker 3: what happens is expectations go up, and when you're paying 1885 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:21,040 Speaker 3: great for just good, then it becomes a problem because 1886 01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:22,880 Speaker 3: when you're saying, oh, man, we gotta give him forty 1887 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,760 Speaker 3: million dollars, but we also need to get a high 1888 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,040 Speaker 3: price wide receiver, a high price tied end. We need 1889 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,000 Speaker 3: a high price left tackle. We need this for him 1890 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 3: to play well. At some point you begin to say, well, 1891 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:34,200 Speaker 3: why we ban him so much if he needs all 1892 01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:34,639 Speaker 3: that help. 1893 01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:39,680 Speaker 1: That's that's where the rub comes because we happen from 1894 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 1: doing it. 1895 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:42,760 Speaker 2: But if the Ravens won their Super Bowl when Joe 1896 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 2: Flackel backed up the the brings truck and cut all 1897 01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:47,760 Speaker 2: that money and there was no money left for anybody else, 1898 01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:49,679 Speaker 2: and the Ravens cut it hurting after that. 1899 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 4: I mean, you make your choices, right, I mean, and 1900 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:55,639 Speaker 4: you decide like he played out a bet on himself 1901 01:27:55,680 --> 01:28:00,360 Speaker 4: scenario and it went the as well as it possibly could, right. 1902 01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:03,360 Speaker 4: I Mean, that's the that's the equivalent of the guy 1903 01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:06,240 Speaker 4: going down to the crossroads with his guitar saying, hey, 1904 01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:09,640 Speaker 4: make me a star, Mephistopheles, I need a little bit 1905 01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:11,880 Speaker 4: of help here. I mean, that's what Joe Flacco had 1906 01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 4: one of the most historic runs ever. You can look 1907 01:28:14,040 --> 01:28:16,559 Speaker 4: over at Eli Manning. He had two playoff runs that 1908 01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:18,240 Speaker 4: have set him up for life, and that some of 1909 01:28:18,400 --> 01:28:21,160 Speaker 4: the surname didn't hurt. But you go down the road, 1910 01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:24,160 Speaker 4: you know, you have those scenarios, but yeah, it has 1911 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,120 Speaker 4: to go back, you know, not to make it all 1912 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:28,160 Speaker 4: about me, but I will, I mean go back to 1913 01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:30,639 Speaker 4: the Bears like that was the beginning of the free 1914 01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:34,760 Speaker 4: agency world. When the Bears won the Super Bowl, All right, 1915 01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:38,120 Speaker 4: Buddy Ryan and did go battling. Wilbur Marshall to me 1916 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:42,320 Speaker 4: was the best linebacker they had. And I'll say that 1917 01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:45,360 Speaker 4: for tell Blue in the face. He was the guy. Yeah, 1918 01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 4: and Briggs was better than her lacker. But the fact 1919 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:52,160 Speaker 4: of the matter is Wilbur Marshall leaves for Washington. That 1920 01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:55,280 Speaker 4: heart of the defense is never the same again, right, 1921 01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:58,280 Speaker 4: you start seeing that playing a bigger role as well. 1922 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 4: Guys play up, get their and they're told, well, you're 1923 01:29:01,200 --> 01:29:03,559 Speaker 4: part of a unit. You fit as one of eleven. 1924 01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:07,519 Speaker 4: Like you know, you're not splitting the money equally swap 1925 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:08,280 Speaker 4: out right. 1926 01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:12,760 Speaker 1: It does impact that. And so you got to pick 1927 01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 1: and choose. 1928 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:16,680 Speaker 3: And when you pick the quarterback and the quarterback is 1929 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:22,320 Speaker 3: just a guy, right, it just impacts everything because the cash, 1930 01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:25,960 Speaker 3: the cash that goes to one player and everyone knows 1931 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:29,080 Speaker 3: he needs so much help and he can't do it 1932 01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:30,280 Speaker 3: on his own. 1933 01:29:30,880 --> 01:29:32,240 Speaker 1: It just changes everything. 1934 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 3: Not only does it upset the applecart with the salary cap, 1935 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:38,679 Speaker 3: it changes the dynamic in the locker room, right because 1936 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,080 Speaker 3: people are saying, this dude is so overpaid, we're having 1937 01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,080 Speaker 3: to do all of this other stuff like it. 1938 01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:44,320 Speaker 1: It just makes it hard. 1939 01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:48,719 Speaker 3: But because everyone is scared to walk away from average, 1940 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 3: we just don't want. 1941 01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:50,360 Speaker 4: To walk. 1942 01:29:51,880 --> 01:29:53,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't want to walk away from average, So 1943 01:29:53,960 --> 01:29:58,320 Speaker 3: you end up talking yourself into paying for average when 1944 01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:00,640 Speaker 3: you know he's only average. 1945 01:30:00,840 --> 01:30:02,680 Speaker 2: But look how lucky the forty one his guy with 1946 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:05,479 Speaker 2: Brock Party. He's making a similar to fifty thousand, nine 1947 01:30:05,520 --> 01:30:08,160 Speaker 2: hundred fifty four maybe, but he's gonna hit it. He'll 1948 01:30:08,200 --> 01:30:08,880 Speaker 2: hit it next year. 1949 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:09,840 Speaker 1: He's gonna hit it. 1950 01:30:09,840 --> 01:30:12,120 Speaker 3: But see, here's the thing, though, I think brock Purdy 1951 01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:16,160 Speaker 3: is good though like he somehow slipped through the cracks. 1952 01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 1: He didn't show what he's shown. 1953 01:30:17,280 --> 01:30:18,840 Speaker 3: He's one of the rare players that I think is 1954 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:22,040 Speaker 3: a much better college, much better pro player than collegiate player. 1955 01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 1: Brock Purdy is good. 1956 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:25,479 Speaker 3: But yeah, it's going to change because guess what when 1957 01:30:25,479 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 3: they pay him, and it's happening this offseason, when they 1958 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:31,120 Speaker 3: pay him fifty to fifty five million dollars, you're gonna 1959 01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:33,080 Speaker 3: have to say goodbye to Kyle you Check, you have 1960 01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:36,639 Speaker 3: to say goodbye to Deebo Sam, You're gonna have to say, hey, Kiitto, 1961 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:38,600 Speaker 3: we love you, but we may need to take a 1962 01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 3: little pay cut. You have to do that, And how 1963 01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:44,040 Speaker 3: is that going to change the dynamic in the locker room? 1964 01:30:44,439 --> 01:30:46,439 Speaker 4: But that's the thing right as you flow through, and 1965 01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:48,639 Speaker 4: it's got nothing to do about the color of shorts, 1966 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:51,000 Speaker 4: at least for the moment here, which is a whole 1967 01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:52,200 Speaker 4: other little fun center. 1968 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:53,240 Speaker 1: O Paldy. 1969 01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:57,880 Speaker 3: Yeah dude, you got, Paddy, Yeah you got. 1970 01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:01,599 Speaker 1: You're still Patty and you still man paid. 1971 01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:04,599 Speaker 4: Now the fact that Juwan Jennings came out now played 1972 01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:08,120 Speaker 4: you and you look like a jag. Hey you got paid, 1973 01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 4: You got paid. But you see the other guys in 1974 01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 4: that offense can go in and step into spots, right. So, 1975 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 4: but but they're an organization. Andy to the larger point, man, Bucky, 1976 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:21,000 Speaker 4: I mean, we do this all the time. You and 1977 01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:22,639 Speaker 4: I've been talking about this for as long as we've 1978 01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:25,120 Speaker 4: been doing shows together. What do you got eight to 1979 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 4: ten franchises that you put in one bucket and everybody 1980 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:31,000 Speaker 4: else is over here fighting to figure out what they're 1981 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:33,639 Speaker 4: going to adopt of what works, and then they don't 1982 01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:36,439 Speaker 4: get out of their own way. Read Jerry Jones and 1983 01:31:36,520 --> 01:31:38,640 Speaker 4: so many others right. So San Francisco is one of 1984 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,639 Speaker 4: those things where it worked, where you had a lot 1985 01:31:41,640 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 4: of the pieces in place, and it takes nothing away 1986 01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:46,880 Speaker 4: from brock perty I think he's been fantastic, right, So 1987 01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:50,160 Speaker 4: to dismiss him is at your own peril. But it 1988 01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:52,280 Speaker 4: goes to I heard you guys as I was driving in, 1989 01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:57,439 Speaker 4: talking about college starts and being a professional and coming 1990 01:31:57,479 --> 01:32:01,120 Speaker 4: in and recognizing what you can add versus the weight 1991 01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:03,280 Speaker 4: of the world being put on your shoulders. For Rock Birdy, 1992 01:32:03,280 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 4: he was like, all right, next guy up. Expectations are zero. Right, 1993 01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:10,320 Speaker 4: he's mister irrelevant. He's on a good team. So in theory, 1994 01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:13,960 Speaker 4: this should kind of work. And then you know they hit, 1995 01:32:14,280 --> 01:32:16,479 Speaker 4: you know, flew over their skis and you've had this 1996 01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:20,519 Speaker 4: ridiculous run that he has. But most organizations doesn't work. 1997 01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:22,200 Speaker 4: I mean, look at the Bears. They went and spent 1998 01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 4: all sorts of money on outside guys and everything else. 1999 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:27,559 Speaker 4: Keenan Allen will be back today. They forgot about one 2000 01:32:27,640 --> 01:32:30,040 Speaker 4: very important thing, the five guys that have to keep 2001 01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:33,240 Speaker 4: Caleb Williams up right, and you hired the wrong damn coordinator. 2002 01:32:33,560 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 2: I'll give you another team. 2003 01:32:34,560 --> 01:32:37,000 Speaker 4: Let's call it speed Option. At the one anyway. 2004 01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 2: But the Tennessee Titans spent tons of money in the 2005 01:32:39,520 --> 01:32:42,160 Speaker 2: offseason free agency. Well what do they do? So it's 2006 01:32:42,200 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 2: all about development. I think that's more important than spending 2007 01:32:45,120 --> 01:32:47,479 Speaker 2: money on free agency. They spent time. I don't think 2008 01:32:47,479 --> 01:32:49,879 Speaker 2: any teams spent more money than the Titans of free agency. 2009 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:52,719 Speaker 4: Well, I think you know they're about what four plays 2010 01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 4: away back? 2011 01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:56,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, the great quarterback is issued out. 2012 01:32:56,400 --> 01:32:59,120 Speaker 4: Because he's completed sixty eight percent of his passes, he's 2013 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:02,000 Speaker 4: looked really good in great stretches, and then he makes 2014 01:33:02,040 --> 01:33:03,760 Speaker 4: him play you'd expect from a seven year old. 2015 01:33:04,640 --> 01:33:08,559 Speaker 1: Yeah. The blunders, I mean the blunders are bad, man. 2016 01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 4: Right, They're not regular interceptions pushing the ball downfield. These 2017 01:33:12,479 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 4: are game changing, back and breaking What the hell are 2018 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:16,280 Speaker 4: you doing? Man? 2019 01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:16,599 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2020 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:19,559 Speaker 2: But throw buckis Jacksonville Jaguars in there too. They spent 2021 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:21,680 Speaker 2: a ton of free agency as well in the offseason. 2022 01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:23,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they did. 2023 01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 3: And I'll be the first to tell you can't build 2024 01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:30,280 Speaker 3: your team primarily through free agents. And the reason why 2025 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 3: you can't build it through free agency is because you 2026 01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:35,240 Speaker 3: don't know. You don't know where these guys are coming 2027 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 3: from in terms of like you just don't know all 2028 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:39,599 Speaker 3: the background, and so you're bringing in guys that you're 2029 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 3: paying a ton of money. You want them to be 2030 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:44,320 Speaker 3: leaders and all of that, but there's no direct connectivity. 2031 01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:46,240 Speaker 4: But you got to draft and development there. 2032 01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:48,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's the best way, that's the most 2033 01:33:49,240 --> 01:33:51,840 Speaker 3: economical way to be able to do it. You draft 2034 01:33:51,880 --> 01:33:54,920 Speaker 3: and you develop your own, and then you sign your 2035 01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:57,400 Speaker 3: own and you bring in a couple of guys on 2036 01:33:57,479 --> 01:34:01,400 Speaker 3: the side to kind of, I said, supplement what they're doing. 2037 01:34:01,439 --> 01:34:04,439 Speaker 1: But it shouldn't be you're building your team through free agency. 2038 01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:05,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't work. It's not sustainable. 2039 01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:08,719 Speaker 4: No, you might get a one year bounce, but uh, 2040 01:34:09,160 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 4: you know, the the devil comes. It comes due in 2041 01:34:12,280 --> 01:34:15,360 Speaker 4: short order, no question about it.

We'll see if we can cycle 2085 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:37,639 Speaker 4: it back. Friend reached out saying, I've got Jalen Hurts right. 2086 01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:40,640 Speaker 4: We know all the injuries couple of offensive linemen to 2087 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 4: wide receivers on the road at Tampa or justin fields 2088 01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:52,800 Speaker 4: on the road at Indianapolis. I'll inform it to say 2089 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:56,680 Speaker 4: that the over unders on their rushing yards are but 2090 01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:58,360 Speaker 4: a two yard difference. 2091 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:03,760 Speaker 2: And fields at Indy had a choice. Justin Fields at Indy. 2092 01:37:04,120 --> 01:37:05,000 Speaker 2: Tampa is dangerous. 2093 01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:06,439 Speaker 4: And then see what they did last. 2094 01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:09,360 Speaker 1: Week Tampa, Tampa. Tampa has more. 2095 01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:11,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, there, they are a more dangerous team when it 2096 01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:13,160 Speaker 3: comes to some of that stuff. 2097 01:37:13,560 --> 01:37:16,599 Speaker 4: But see, I wonder if I it's not the Hey, 2098 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:19,960 Speaker 4: the Pittsburgh defense can get after Richardson forced a turnover 2099 01:37:20,040 --> 01:37:22,200 Speaker 4: or to and give Justin Fields a short field. No 2100 01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:24,879 Speaker 4: Jalen Warren for the Steelers, by the way, So perhaps 2101 01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:28,160 Speaker 4: fields in Arthur Smith's planning a little more involved in 2102 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:28,760 Speaker 4: the run game. 2103 01:37:29,479 --> 01:37:32,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like, I like fields. I think I think 2104 01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:33,520 Speaker 2: it's an easy decision. 2105 01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:33,679 Speaker 1: Over here too. 2106 01:37:33,720 --> 01:37:36,519 Speaker 2: Plus Jalen Hurts has turned the ball over in his 2107 01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:40,800 Speaker 2: last eight games, every game, so he's a turnover machine too. 2108 01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:42,759 Speaker 2: He's like he's got the Trevor Lawrence disease. 2109 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:45,680 Speaker 4: Wow, he's just coming with a baseball bat after you 2110 01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:46,920 Speaker 4: here today, Bucky. 2111 01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:51,639 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, and that throwing. North Carolina's lost to Duke 2112 01:37:51,760 --> 01:37:52,639 Speaker 2: too yesterday. 2113 01:37:53,840 --> 01:37:56,559 Speaker 1: Wow, Trevor. Trevor hasn't done it yet.

Yeah yeah, and you 2118 01:38:07,880 --> 01:38:09,920 Speaker 4: let them off the hook like Dennis green Yield so 2119 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 4: many years ago. 2120 01:38:11,560 --> 01:38:14,040 Speaker 1: Exactly didn't finish, didn't finish the game. 2121 01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:16,599 Speaker 4: Gotta play a full sixty hey.

All right before we get 2138 01:38:59,280 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 4: into the games. One quick note, Kevin O'Connell was on 2139 01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:05,000 Speaker 4: the I think it was the Rich Eisen Show earlier 2140 01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:08,760 Speaker 4: this week talking about quarterback play quote. I just think 2141 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:11,120 Speaker 4: as a whole, it's not another emphasis put on the 2142 01:39:11,200 --> 01:39:14,680 Speaker 4: organization's role in the development of the position, meaning that 2143 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:19,040 Speaker 4: I believe that organizations fail young quarterbacks before young quarterbacks 2144 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:25,040 Speaker 4: fail organizations, unquote. And to me, I mean it speaks 2145 01:39:25,080 --> 01:39:26,840 Speaker 4: to a lot of I think what the three of 2146 01:39:26,920 --> 01:39:30,880 Speaker 4: us have been talking about forever. I've always agreed with 2147 01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:34,320 Speaker 4: the Tom Brady philosophy that he's espoused in his post 2148 01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:36,800 Speaker 4: playing career of Hey, if the young guy's not ready, 2149 01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:38,800 Speaker 4: the young guys are getting not ready. I understand we 2150 01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:42,320 Speaker 4: want to make sure we get every drop of blood 2151 01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:45,200 Speaker 4: out of them during those rookie deals. But if they're 2152 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,360 Speaker 4: not ready to play the NFL game, you're just chasing 2153 01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:52,439 Speaker 4: a bad proposition, right and setting up for failure because 2154 01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:56,599 Speaker 4: then you start forcing issues and trying to create something 2155 01:39:56,920 --> 01:40:00,759 Speaker 4: that may maybe there in a year but takes some learning. 2156 01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:04,240 Speaker 4: You know, the Bryce Young scenario down in Carolina comes 2157 01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:07,240 Speaker 4: to mind immediately. But Bucky, I mean I think that 2158 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:09,719 Speaker 4: you know, the incubator. Sometimes you got to let things, 2159 01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:13,720 Speaker 4: you know, take their time and work versus Hey, you 2160 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:16,120 Speaker 4: were a top ten pick and we put you on 2161 01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:18,479 Speaker 4: all the marketing materials, so get in the game. 2162 01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:22,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there's something to be said for that 2163 01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 3: when you talk about organization most stuff. 2164 01:40:25,600 --> 01:40:28,240 Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell's right. Obviously, he's a former quarterback. He played 2165 01:40:28,240 --> 01:40:29,240 Speaker 1: in the National Football League. 2166 01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:31,960 Speaker 3: He's seen it firsthand, and I think that has certainly 2167 01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:34,760 Speaker 3: impacted the way that he has developed quarterbacks. But it 2168 01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:38,639 Speaker 3: takes the stability of everyone around the quarterback to ensure 2169 01:40:38,640 --> 01:40:40,720 Speaker 3: that the quarterback can play at his best. And that 2170 01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:43,880 Speaker 3: stability is not only the personnel around them, the playmakers, 2171 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:47,000 Speaker 3: the pass protection, the blockers in front of him, what 2172 01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:49,519 Speaker 3: you have around him that can make the game easy, 2173 01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:52,760 Speaker 3: the play caller and the system being the same for 2174 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,080 Speaker 3: years on end, so the guy doesn't have to learn 2175 01:40:55,080 --> 01:40:56,799 Speaker 3: a new language every year. 2176 01:40:56,920 --> 01:40:58,600 Speaker 1: He steps into the facility. 2177 01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:02,080 Speaker 3: And then it's having the trust that we're going to 2178 01:41:02,200 --> 01:41:03,679 Speaker 3: let him work through. 2179 01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:04,600 Speaker 1: Some of those mistakes. 2180 01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,000 Speaker 3: Regardless of the people in the stands that are saying 2181 01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 3: after a game or two, they can fully assess the 2182 01:41:09,240 --> 01:41:11,880 Speaker 3: quarterback and say it, we're gonna stick with them, and 2183 01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:13,720 Speaker 3: we're gonna be fine, and your owner has to be 2184 01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:16,640 Speaker 3: okay with the quarterback developmental plan. That may take a 2185 01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:19,160 Speaker 3: year or two, and so it may impact your record 2186 01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:21,679 Speaker 3: right away, but you got to get through that part 2187 01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:23,280 Speaker 3: to get to the good side. 2188 01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:26,479 Speaker 1: And it takes thirty games to fully evaluate a quarterback. 2189 01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:27,759 Speaker 1: That's two years. 2190 01:41:28,240 --> 01:41:30,200 Speaker 3: Can you live through it for two years before making 2191 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:33,160 Speaker 3: a determination. Most people don't have the patients to do that. 2192 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:35,320 Speaker 2: But you know what that there are two teams that 2193 01:41:35,360 --> 01:41:38,080 Speaker 2: are doing it right now. The Atlanta Falcons obtained Kirk 2194 01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:40,479 Speaker 2: Cousins to let Michael Pennock sit, and then we're going 2195 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:42,720 Speaker 2: to Patriots. You have to Drake May and it was 2196 01:41:42,760 --> 01:41:45,479 Speaker 2: not ready to got Jacobe Prissett. So they realized they 2197 01:41:45,520 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 2: could to suck it out. That may not win, they 2198 01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:49,559 Speaker 2: may not make playoffs, but this is what they're gonna 2199 01:41:49,600 --> 01:41:51,960 Speaker 2: do to kind of ease their way in. And that's 2200 01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:53,600 Speaker 2: the way it used to be. That's the way it 2201 01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:55,240 Speaker 2: used to be. Look at the Green Bay package. What 2202 01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:58,360 Speaker 2: they've done for years, their quarterbacks waiting on the sidelines. 2203 01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:02,120 Speaker 2: You named the quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, waited, Brett fah Away, 2204 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,400 Speaker 2: they all waited. That's what they did. But no longer 2205 01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:06,960 Speaker 2: because they coming with the hype you win the Heisman 2206 01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:08,840 Speaker 2: Trophy and next thing, you know, said, well, how can 2207 01:42:08,880 --> 01:42:10,719 Speaker 2: you not play the guy he won the Heisman Trophy? 2208 01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:12,439 Speaker 4: As the way it is, See, I'm gonna take the 2209 01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 4: victory lap on the Packers when they drafted Jordan Love 2210 01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:17,479 Speaker 4: back up in action, a little surprising to me. I 2211 01:42:17,479 --> 01:42:19,320 Speaker 4: know it's a division game, but you got the wins 2212 01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,400 Speaker 4: with Malik Willis. I would have thought you'd leave him 2213 01:42:21,600 --> 01:42:23,960 Speaker 4: through the bye week. But hey, we'll see Jordan Love 2214 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,400 Speaker 4: a little bit later on today. I'll take that w 2215 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:28,400 Speaker 4: the pendix thing. He kind of fell in their lap, 2216 01:42:28,880 --> 01:42:31,240 Speaker 4: but I give him credit for just saying, all right, 2217 01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:33,960 Speaker 4: if this was the best player, we'll look to the 2218 01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:36,920 Speaker 4: long term as well, especially with Captain Kirk not really 2219 01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:39,920 Speaker 4: knowing what his legs were gonna be and mobility and 2220 01:42:39,960 --> 01:42:42,400 Speaker 4: all those fun things. And we've certainly it's been a 2221 01:42:42,400 --> 01:42:45,160 Speaker 4: mixed bag for him through three weeks. Right right to 2222 01:42:45,200 --> 01:42:47,000 Speaker 4: your point, Andy, Yeah, I mean we do actually have 2223 01:42:47,040 --> 01:42:49,839 Speaker 4: this in New England. Let's face so, Jacobe Brisett, Bersett's 2224 01:42:49,840 --> 01:42:52,559 Speaker 4: a human shield right now, but I'll tell you, I 2225 01:42:52,560 --> 01:42:56,000 Speaker 4: mean that's what he's being used as more than anything. Hey, 2226 01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:57,840 Speaker 4: do we have an offensive line they can protect Drake 2227 01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,599 Speaker 4: may No, Okay, he can't play, and then they still 2228 01:43:00,600 --> 01:43:03,599 Speaker 4: put him in that game. That was malfeasance. Man, that 2229 01:43:03,680 --> 01:43:06,720 Speaker 4: was ridiculous. We're watching you guys get beaten around, like 2230 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:08,880 Speaker 4: I don't care. Put the punter out there and let 2231 01:43:08,960 --> 01:43:12,800 Speaker 4: him take some snaps. He'll be starting before the end 2232 01:43:12,800 --> 01:43:13,200 Speaker 4: of the season. 2233 01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:14,920 Speaker 2: You think Drake Maye, well, he probably will have to 2234 01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:22,719 Speaker 2: because Jacobe pricillall be in the hospitalspal. 2235 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:20,880 Speaker 1: He'll have to play. 2236 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:23,160 Speaker 3: But even look, it even goes beyond that, like, because 2237 01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,200 Speaker 3: then my question, if I'm a Tennessee Titans fan, my 2238 01:43:26,320 --> 01:43:28,200 Speaker 3: number one question when I show up to the stadium 2239 01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:30,920 Speaker 3: today is how can Elik Willis look one way for 2240 01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:34,960 Speaker 3: the Green Bay Pass and another way for us. Malik 2241 01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:37,280 Speaker 3: Willis has been in Green Bay for a little over 2242 01:43:37,320 --> 01:43:40,599 Speaker 3: a month and looks like a completely different player than 2243 01:43:40,640 --> 01:43:41,720 Speaker 3: the player that we saw for. 2244 01:43:41,720 --> 01:43:42,679 Speaker 1: The Tennessee Titans. 2245 01:43:43,880 --> 01:43:47,120 Speaker 3: Coaching matters, and and and and when they talk about 2246 01:43:47,200 --> 01:43:50,400 Speaker 3: organizational structure, what Kevin O'Connor is talking about, it matters. 2247 01:43:50,600 --> 01:43:53,120 Speaker 3: The Packers have a fundamental belief that they know how 2248 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:56,240 Speaker 3: to develop the quarterback. I can't tell you what goes 2249 01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:59,040 Speaker 3: on in the building since I've departed, But there's something 2250 01:43:59,080 --> 01:44:01,800 Speaker 3: that goes on when they right out a quarterback. More 2251 01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:05,519 Speaker 3: times than not, it's gonna work. Jordan Love, Aaron Rodgers 2252 01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:09,679 Speaker 3: Willis is certainly working. There's something to it. Some guys 2253 01:44:09,800 --> 01:44:12,160 Speaker 3: understand how to do it. Some organizations know how to 2254 01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:13,519 Speaker 3: do it, know how to support a quarterback. 2255 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:15,920 Speaker 2: That's that's why we said earlier today that Matt Lafleur 2256 01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:18,720 Speaker 2: and Kevin O'Connell should be candidates as of today as 2257 01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:20,640 Speaker 2: coach of the year in the National Football League. What 2258 01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:21,759 Speaker 2: they've done with their teams. 2259 01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:24,840 Speaker 4: Really, there's no question about it. The other guy that 2260 01:44:24,880 --> 01:44:27,800 Speaker 4: we'll get to in a bit, Bucky, I think you 2261 01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:30,360 Speaker 4: next hour as well, when when's Brian floor is going 2262 01:44:30,439 --> 01:44:34,240 Speaker 4: to get another shot, because certainly through three weeks this season, 2263 01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:37,519 Speaker 4: he's saying I'm as good as any of y'all. So 2264 01:44:37,560 --> 01:44:39,760 Speaker 4: we'll see how that flows. But you know what, before 2265 01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:41,160 Speaker 4: we get into our games, why don't we go to 2266 01:44:41,200 --> 01:44:44,080 Speaker 4: our guy, Kevin Wyre at the news desk.

Guys, we got a couple of games again you, 2324 01:47:50,760 --> 01:47:51,640 Speaker 4: let's start them Monday night. 2325 01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:54,840 Speaker 2: If I may, Hello, if I may, If I'm sorry, 2326 01:47:54,880 --> 01:47:57,040 Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, but you made something and it kind 2327 01:47:57,080 --> 01:47:57,800 Speaker 2: of makes me crazy. 2328 01:47:57,880 --> 01:47:58,000 Speaker 1: Here. 2329 01:47:58,200 --> 01:48:00,320 Speaker 2: You said, when is Brian Flor's getting goot as chance 2330 01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:02,280 Speaker 2: as a head coach? And I know he's been great 2331 01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:05,280 Speaker 2: as defensive coordinator of Minnesota, But this is the peed 2332 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:08,360 Speaker 2: of principal that doesn't necessarily work in flocks such studio. 2333 01:48:09,080 --> 01:48:11,439 Speaker 2: Some people are just good in what they do and 2334 01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:14,840 Speaker 2: should stay in that space. Really, and I think Brian 2335 01:48:14,880 --> 01:48:18,280 Speaker 2: Flores is a defensive minded guy. You make him a 2336 01:48:18,280 --> 01:48:20,240 Speaker 2: head coach. I don't know if they could get it done. 2337 01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:22,519 Speaker 2: I mean, I just don't think that people should be 2338 01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:26,559 Speaker 2: given that opportunity to move up the ladder because they've 2339 01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:28,920 Speaker 2: done well in one position, that doesn't mean they're going 2340 01:48:28,960 --> 01:48:30,840 Speaker 2: to do well in another. If you're a teacher, does 2341 01:48:30,880 --> 01:48:33,720 Speaker 2: not mean you're going to be a good principal. Right, See, 2342 01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:35,519 Speaker 2: you're a good teacher, periods all. 2343 01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:37,680 Speaker 4: We've got plenty of those, there's no question. And you 2344 01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:39,639 Speaker 4: know we can go all the way through the ads 2345 01:48:39,680 --> 01:48:42,200 Speaker 4: and the mL A history and everything else. I wasn't 2346 01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:45,280 Speaker 4: saying it as a hey, hire this man, No there's 2347 01:48:45,280 --> 01:48:47,240 Speaker 4: certainly a lot of questions that need to be asked 2348 01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:50,240 Speaker 4: from his last stop. Not to mention, he sued the league. 2349 01:48:50,680 --> 01:48:52,960 Speaker 4: So I mean it was more just a hey, here's 2350 01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:55,519 Speaker 4: a one point. Just kind of raised my hand as 2351 01:48:55,600 --> 01:48:57,880 Speaker 4: to the job that Brian Flores has done, because Kevin 2352 01:48:57,880 --> 01:49:00,519 Speaker 4: O'Connell's getting a lot of love with Sam Darnold should 2353 01:49:00,800 --> 01:49:03,880 Speaker 4: but that defense is just wreaking havoc across the first 2354 01:49:03,920 --> 01:49:05,960 Speaker 4: three weeks of the year. That's all I was trying 2355 01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:06,880 Speaker 4: to say, go ahead, bud it. 2356 01:49:06,840 --> 01:49:08,640 Speaker 3: Well, no, and I'm gonna say this though, because if 2357 01:49:08,640 --> 01:49:10,760 Speaker 3: we're gonna do that, then Bean Johnson shouldn't get loved 2358 01:49:10,760 --> 01:49:12,960 Speaker 3: because he's a good offensive coordinator doesn't mean he's gonna 2359 01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:15,360 Speaker 3: get or whatever. It means that none of these hot 2360 01:49:15,479 --> 01:49:18,479 Speaker 3: coaching candidates that we're talking about, they shouldn't get love 2361 01:49:18,560 --> 01:49:21,000 Speaker 3: based on what they do for a particular unit, Like 2362 01:49:21,120 --> 01:49:23,400 Speaker 3: if we're gonna take it that away, like who knows 2363 01:49:23,479 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 3: what someone's going to be as a head coach, because 2364 01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:28,920 Speaker 3: it's a different job completely than the job that everyone 2365 01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:29,280 Speaker 3: was doing. 2366 01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:29,519 Speaker 1: Well. 2367 01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:32,320 Speaker 4: Not to mention you, you get multiple bites of the apple. 2368 01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:35,439 Speaker 4: Should Bill Belichick have never coached again? Because of the 2369 01:49:35,479 --> 01:49:42,720 Speaker 4: failures in Cleveland. Look what he did there? Score one 2370 01:49:42,800 --> 01:49:45,120 Speaker 4: for the kid. I would throw my phone down, but 2371 01:49:45,240 --> 01:49:46,320 Speaker 4: it would success. 2372 01:49:46,479 --> 01:49:48,880 Speaker 2: It was a defensive coordinator with the Giants too, I think. 2373 01:49:48,920 --> 01:49:50,960 Speaker 4: Right, But I mean he won super bowls there. That's 2374 01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:54,040 Speaker 4: how he gets the jobs. Oh sure, you know, head 2375 01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:56,519 Speaker 4: man whatever. And for Flores, Look, we have a lot 2376 01:49:56,560 --> 01:49:58,760 Speaker 4: of questions of what went on in Miami. There's no 2377 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:01,840 Speaker 4: question about it, right, buck It's it's not open and 2378 01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:05,120 Speaker 4: shut there at all. Not to mention the litigation that 2379 01:50:05,240 --> 01:50:09,679 Speaker 4: flowed out of it. But you know, we cycle coaches 2380 01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:12,400 Speaker 4: all the time, and usually when you dominate on one 2381 01:50:12,479 --> 01:50:14,479 Speaker 4: side of the ball, people get desperate and say, hey 2382 01:50:15,320 --> 01:50:17,280 Speaker 4: we can get back in go you get another look, 2383 01:50:17,360 --> 01:50:22,160 Speaker 4: right anyway, back to the game, all right, Seahawks and Lias, 2384 01:50:22,240 --> 01:50:25,000 Speaker 4: all right, Monday night football. Here as we get it going. 2385 01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:29,519 Speaker 4: Seattle Detroit. Seattle fourth best defense in the game, fourteen 2386 01:50:29,560 --> 01:50:32,080 Speaker 4: point three points a lap per game. Detroit also top ten, 2387 01:50:32,160 --> 01:50:35,160 Speaker 4: giving up seventeen point seven their offense. Not yet there, 2388 01:50:35,200 --> 01:50:37,880 Speaker 4: Ben Johnson, the aforementioned Ben Johnson, that bucket just brought up. 2389 01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:40,400 Speaker 4: Quote just a matter of time before we break through, 2390 01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:43,200 Speaker 4: right now, scoring twenty point seven points per game, and 2391 01:50:43,240 --> 01:50:46,760 Speaker 4: they've been dreadful in red zone situations thus far, but 2392 01:50:46,840 --> 01:50:51,040 Speaker 4: they are averaging four hundred yards per game. Rag now 2393 01:50:51,280 --> 01:50:54,960 Speaker 4: is out. Kenneth Walker's supposed to return for Seattle. As 2394 01:50:55,040 --> 01:50:57,680 Speaker 4: we look at the spread for this one three and 2395 01:50:57,720 --> 01:51:00,800 Speaker 4: a half, Detroit favored at home four five and a half. 2396 01:51:00,960 --> 01:51:02,960 Speaker 4: When this line opened back in the day, guys, it 2397 01:51:03,080 --> 01:51:06,680 Speaker 4: was a full six point advantage for Detroit. Maybe some 2398 01:51:06,840 --> 01:51:10,360 Speaker 4: questions with the offense showing in that point spread. 2399 01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:13,120 Speaker 2: Andy, what do you got, Well, this is quite easy 2400 01:51:13,160 --> 01:51:15,160 Speaker 2: because Seattle really has a come against any real tough 2401 01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:17,439 Speaker 2: opponents here who they played Denver, New England in Miami 2402 01:51:17,600 --> 01:51:19,240 Speaker 2: right now, and you've got Detroit. 2403 01:51:19,400 --> 01:51:20,120 Speaker 4: Detroit's de trup. 2404 01:51:20,160 --> 01:51:22,120 Speaker 2: As long as Jared Goff doesn't turn the ball over, 2405 01:51:22,600 --> 01:51:24,839 Speaker 2: they have a tremendous offense, one of the best offenses 2406 01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:26,680 Speaker 2: in the league. They got the best running duo in 2407 01:51:26,720 --> 01:51:29,040 Speaker 2: the football, David Montgomery and Jamalk Gibbs. So they give 2408 01:51:29,120 --> 01:51:31,759 Speaker 2: up the ball to those guys of mont Ross Saint Brown. 2409 01:51:32,080 --> 01:51:33,760 Speaker 2: I mean, this team should win, and I think they 2410 01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:36,000 Speaker 2: should win up by a heck of a lot, but 2411 01:51:36,040 --> 01:51:37,200 Speaker 2: I think they should win this game. 2412 01:51:37,320 --> 01:51:38,320 Speaker 4: I like Detroit a lot. 2413 01:51:40,080 --> 01:51:41,960 Speaker 3: Detroit is good. I'm gonna go with Detroit. I think 2414 01:51:41,960 --> 01:51:44,160 Speaker 3: the best team. I think they will eventually be the 2415 01:51:44,200 --> 01:51:44,680 Speaker 3: best team in the. 2416 01:51:44,720 --> 01:51:47,760 Speaker 4: NFC eventually that it shakes out. I mean, we've got 2417 01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:50,599 Speaker 4: questions with so many others talked about even just doing 2418 01:51:50,640 --> 01:51:54,760 Speaker 4: a fantasy potential benching of Jalen Hurts earlier, which would 2419 01:51:54,760 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 4: have been unthinkable to start the season. But here we are, 2420 01:51:57,920 --> 01:52:00,680 Speaker 4: David Montgomery. Can he get carried another ten yards like 2421 01:52:00,800 --> 01:52:03,760 Speaker 4: he's a ballerina in the middle of a big production number. 2422 01:52:04,200 --> 01:52:05,920 Speaker 4: That's what we got last week. All right, let's get 2423 01:52:05,960 --> 01:52:07,880 Speaker 4: the other Monday game in while we're at it, Bill 2424 01:52:08,000 --> 01:52:11,080 Speaker 4: said Ravens, all right, well, we actually I get the 2425 01:52:11,479 --> 01:52:13,840 Speaker 4: long order, so I juiced it up to a bigger 2426 01:52:13,880 --> 01:52:16,040 Speaker 4: matchup Sunday Night Football forty six and a half the 2427 01:52:16,120 --> 01:52:19,120 Speaker 4: total Ravens two and a half point favorites. At home, 2428 01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:23,639 Speaker 4: Buffalo getting it going with the run pass of Josh 2429 01:52:23,680 --> 01:52:27,880 Speaker 4: Allen taking care of business. Shaquille Shakira has been fantastic. 2430 01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:31,320 Speaker 4: Fourteen targets, fourteen catches. James Cook out of the backfield 2431 01:52:31,560 --> 01:52:36,760 Speaker 4: has been fantastic as well. For Baltimore. Derrick Henry makes 2432 01:52:36,800 --> 01:52:39,519 Speaker 4: the things run as long as well as Lamar Jackson 2433 01:52:39,640 --> 01:52:41,479 Speaker 4: has over two hundred and fifty yards on the ground 2434 01:52:41,520 --> 01:52:45,160 Speaker 4: as well. Buffalo missing those linebackers, could that be the difference? 2435 01:52:45,200 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 4: Bucky Brooks. 2436 01:52:47,800 --> 01:52:50,559 Speaker 3: Man, Buffalo looks so great on Monday that is easy 2437 01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:51,960 Speaker 3: to fall in love with them and say that they're 2438 01:52:52,000 --> 01:52:55,000 Speaker 3: going to be They're gonna be ready to roll through Baltimore. 2439 01:52:55,040 --> 01:52:57,360 Speaker 3: I think Baltimore shows up in this one. Baltimore found 2440 01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:00,080 Speaker 3: themselves against the Cowboys, a lot of Derrick Henry, a 2441 01:53:00,160 --> 01:53:02,080 Speaker 3: lot of Lamar Jackson. I look for more of the 2442 01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:05,360 Speaker 3: same against the Buffalo Bill As you're right, those linebackers 2443 01:53:05,400 --> 01:53:07,080 Speaker 3: aren't there. It makes a huge difference against the team 2444 01:53:07,080 --> 01:53:08,360 Speaker 3: that wants to run it right down your throat. 2445 01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:10,760 Speaker 4: This game is all about the run. 2446 01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:13,400 Speaker 2: Baltimore leaves the NFL along with just almost two point 2447 01:53:13,439 --> 01:53:15,759 Speaker 2: eight yards per rush, so that Bills need to unlock 2448 01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:17,840 Speaker 2: a pissinga And can they do that without throwing the 2449 01:53:17,880 --> 01:53:18,360 Speaker 2: ball away? 2450 01:53:18,400 --> 01:53:18,760 Speaker 4: I don't know. 2451 01:53:19,160 --> 01:53:22,040 Speaker 2: Derek Henry right now against the Bill, He's got like 2452 01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:23,720 Speaker 2: almost like two hundred and eighty yards in his first 2453 01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,920 Speaker 2: three games with the Ravens. He's blossoming into the offense 2454 01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:29,240 Speaker 2: right now. I think the Ravens come alive. The Ravens 2455 01:53:29,280 --> 01:53:30,240 Speaker 2: win this game, much to. 2456 01:53:30,280 --> 01:53:33,120 Speaker 4: The chagrin of fantasy owners. Last week, the only time 2457 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:36,680 Speaker 4: you heard anybody mentioned Isaiah Likely or Mark Andrews was 2458 01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:39,640 Speaker 4: because of their blocking acumen. I expect more of the 2459 01:53:39,680 --> 01:53:43,200 Speaker 4: same today, with more praise from Harbaugh about what they 2460 01:53:43,320 --> 01:53:46,000 Speaker 4: did to help seal things for the run game.

Yay, no Adams, 2477 01:54:34,920 --> 01:54:38,000 Speaker 4: no Crosby. On the Raiders side of things, after a 2478 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:42,320 Speaker 4: disappointing performance a week ago, but kind of expected Zamir 2479 01:54:42,400 --> 01:54:45,520 Speaker 4: White barely falling forward just over three yards of carry. 2480 01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:48,480 Speaker 4: Bowers is a stud though d eighteen catches on his 2481 01:54:48,600 --> 01:54:51,720 Speaker 4: twenty one targets for nearly two hundred yards. For the 2482 01:54:51,960 --> 01:54:55,120 Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns, You've got a running back averaging nearly five 2483 01:54:55,240 --> 01:54:58,240 Speaker 4: yards per carry. It doesn't matter because your quarterback play 2484 01:54:58,320 --> 01:55:00,760 Speaker 4: is terrible. A couple of your offensive linemen are out, 2485 01:55:00,880 --> 01:55:03,920 Speaker 4: both Wills and Conklin and Joku gonna miss it. And 2486 01:55:04,000 --> 01:55:07,480 Speaker 4: then Garrett popped up with a foot injury. His status 2487 01:55:07,720 --> 01:55:11,400 Speaker 4: for later today as of yet on known Raiders, a 2488 01:55:11,560 --> 01:55:15,200 Speaker 4: narrow two point favorite at home thirty seven is the 2489 01:55:15,360 --> 01:55:18,760 Speaker 4: total Bucky Brooks, would you watch this game or punt. 2490 01:55:20,040 --> 01:55:22,560 Speaker 3: Who It'd be a hard one.

Forty one twenty 2599 02:00:21,240 --> 02:00:24,120 Speaker 4: one with one remaining. At least the Twins won't go 2600 02:00:24,240 --> 02:00:26,680 Speaker 4: to the playoffs either, so you're not alone out of 2601 02:00:26,760 --> 02:00:29,720 Speaker 4: the division. Mike Carvin, Bucky Brooks with you, here at 2602 02:00:29,800 --> 02:00:32,040 Speaker 4: Bucky Brooks at Big Play Football, where you find him 2603 02:00:32,160 --> 02:00:34,840 Speaker 4: in the Instagram world, read them on NFL dot com. 2604 02:00:35,160 --> 02:00:38,040 Speaker 4: A lot on the young quarterbacks in his latest column. 2605 02:00:38,080 --> 02:00:40,400 Speaker 4: So we'll traverse that tale a little bit as we 2606 02:00:40,480 --> 02:00:42,640 Speaker 4: get through this hour. But Bucky, Yeah, I mean, that's 2607 02:00:42,720 --> 02:00:43,960 Speaker 4: that's the story of my life. 2608 02:00:44,320 --> 02:00:44,480 Speaker 1: You know. 2609 02:00:44,760 --> 02:00:47,000 Speaker 4: We get a Friday night news dump that the Knicks 2610 02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:49,600 Speaker 4: are making a trade to bring in Carl Anthony Towns. 2611 02:00:49,880 --> 02:00:53,080 Speaker 4: The Jets look like they're winning, la la la la la. Meanwhile, 2612 02:00:53,160 --> 02:00:56,080 Speaker 4: my sporting hell continues one I had to deal with 2613 02:00:56,240 --> 02:00:59,720 Speaker 4: all the Carl Anthony Towns Julius Randall trade on air. 2614 02:01:00,240 --> 02:01:03,320 Speaker 4: We have the crazy Miami finish. But like all of 2615 02:01:03,320 --> 02:01:06,200 Speaker 4: these things, and now the Mets are, you know, almost eliminated, 2616 02:01:06,280 --> 02:01:09,560 Speaker 4: but not quite. And I get settling in for a 2617 02:01:09,760 --> 02:01:13,360 Speaker 4: full bear season now at this point, trying to figure 2618 02:01:13,400 --> 02:01:15,879 Speaker 4: out how they turn it around, as I put baseball 2619 02:01:16,200 --> 02:01:17,360 Speaker 4: in the rear view mirror. 2620 02:01:17,880 --> 02:01:20,360 Speaker 1: How they turn it around. We're only a few games 2621 02:01:20,400 --> 02:01:22,600 Speaker 1: into the year. What are we talking about. 2622 02:01:24,440 --> 02:01:24,640 Speaker 4: At all? 2623 02:01:24,640 --> 02:01:28,400 Speaker 1: But we gotta we gotta turn it around already, Like 2624 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:29,120 Speaker 1: that's where we're at. 2625 02:01:29,240 --> 02:01:32,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I well, I look play calling, look that 2626 02:01:32,280 --> 02:01:35,240 Speaker 4: sequence at the goal line last week was unconscious? Are 2627 02:01:36,600 --> 02:01:40,040 Speaker 4: Roshawn Johnson North South runner just picked you up a 2628 02:01:40,080 --> 02:01:44,560 Speaker 4: fourth down run? See down legislating week three? H Yet 2629 02:01:45,000 --> 02:01:48,400 Speaker 4: here's Herbert and here's DeAndre Swift. What is DeAndre Swift? 2630 02:01:48,640 --> 02:01:51,640 Speaker 4: He's a sideline to sideline dance and eventually cut kind 2631 02:01:51,680 --> 02:01:53,640 Speaker 4: of guy in and around the goal line. Do you 2632 02:01:53,720 --> 02:01:55,440 Speaker 4: have that kind of room to do that? Bucky Brooks? 2633 02:01:55,880 --> 02:01:58,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, No, got to get to it, get right 2634 02:01:58,440 --> 02:01:59,920 Speaker 1: to it. So anything happens fast. 2635 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:03,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, so play calling, et cetera. But it's just that curiosity. Look, 2636 02:02:03,560 --> 02:02:05,760 Speaker 4: a lot of the high expectations. Keenan Allen will be 2637 02:02:05,840 --> 02:02:08,200 Speaker 4: back on the field for the Bears later on today 2638 02:02:08,280 --> 02:02:11,120 Speaker 4: and allegedly, you know maybe at the urging I went 2639 02:02:11,400 --> 02:02:15,440 Speaker 4: Shawshank Redemptoure. We just celebrated the thirtieth anniversary of it. Bucky. 2640 02:02:16,040 --> 02:02:18,200 Speaker 4: You know how Andy Dufray to get the library. He 2641 02:02:18,400 --> 02:02:21,280 Speaker 4: started writing letters and then he started writing two letters 2642 02:02:21,880 --> 02:02:23,880 Speaker 4: a day. Yeah, that's what I kind of did, saying 2643 02:02:23,960 --> 02:02:26,480 Speaker 4: ro Shaw Johnson should be touching the football. It'll help 2644 02:02:26,520 --> 02:02:28,640 Speaker 4: protect a little bit about the bad offensive line too, 2645 02:02:28,680 --> 02:02:31,160 Speaker 4: because you just have a guy running North South. They 2646 02:02:31,200 --> 02:02:32,920 Speaker 4: could just concentrate on doing their job. 2647 02:02:33,960 --> 02:02:36,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, she'd be able to do it. 2648 02:02:36,760 --> 02:02:40,640 Speaker 4: Some basebook football stuff, no, nothing crazy, but I mean, 2649 02:02:40,680 --> 02:02:43,640 Speaker 4: look for Caleb Williams. Obviously, expectations he and Jade and 2650 02:02:43,720 --> 02:02:47,600 Speaker 4: Daniels are forever going to be linked based on the 2651 02:02:47,640 --> 02:02:50,600 Speaker 4: position at the top of the draft, and certainly Daniels 2652 02:02:50,720 --> 02:02:54,400 Speaker 4: showing out in a big primetime game got tongues wagging 2653 02:02:54,880 --> 02:02:57,120 Speaker 4: all week long. You know, we talked about it in 2654 02:02:57,200 --> 02:03:00,920 Speaker 4: the preseason, the thought that they had enough weaponry in 2655 02:03:01,160 --> 02:03:04,640 Speaker 4: Washington to maybe be interesting. Didn't think it would happen 2656 02:03:04,680 --> 02:03:07,000 Speaker 4: by week three. So all of a sudden, you got that. 2657 02:03:07,200 --> 02:03:11,080 Speaker 4: You got Dallas reeling with some injury issues, Philadelphia still 2658 02:03:11,120 --> 02:03:15,280 Speaker 4: has plenty of issues. And then you've got the Giants, who, look, 2659 02:03:15,320 --> 02:03:17,720 Speaker 4: they moved the ball, but Daniel Jones can't hit the 2660 02:03:17,800 --> 02:03:22,880 Speaker 4: deep ball, whatever that is physically, mentally whatever. Those opportunities 2661 02:03:23,240 --> 02:03:26,360 Speaker 4: this last week on Thursday against Dallas, number of plays 2662 02:03:26,640 --> 02:03:30,400 Speaker 4: that look like makeable throws. He just couldn't get it there. 2663 02:03:30,840 --> 02:03:33,120 Speaker 4: So for Washington, all of a sudden, it becomes a 2664 02:03:33,280 --> 02:03:34,440 Speaker 4: why not us situation? 2665 02:03:36,400 --> 02:03:36,880 Speaker 1: Look, and. 2666 02:03:38,440 --> 02:03:41,560 Speaker 3: Never thought it did would happen like this for the Commanders, right, 2667 02:03:41,960 --> 02:03:44,600 Speaker 3: But it's very similar, not saying he's the same, but 2668 02:03:44,760 --> 02:03:48,120 Speaker 3: very similar to Hyde pop real quickly for CJ. Stroud 2669 02:03:48,160 --> 02:03:51,800 Speaker 3: in Houston, Texans. After a while, listen to what the 2670 02:03:51,880 --> 02:03:53,000 Speaker 3: locker room is saying. 2671 02:03:52,760 --> 02:03:56,800 Speaker 1: About Jay and Daniels. He's the one, he's the franchise, 2672 02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:57,959 Speaker 1: He's the savior. 2673 02:03:58,400 --> 02:04:02,760 Speaker 3: He's This tells me is they believe in the young quarterback, 2674 02:04:03,080 --> 02:04:06,120 Speaker 3: and that belief is something that changes the dynamic of 2675 02:04:06,200 --> 02:04:09,480 Speaker 3: the team because now when you're on defense, what you 2676 02:04:09,560 --> 02:04:11,160 Speaker 3: say is, hey, guys, I know it's two minutes left, 2677 02:04:11,200 --> 02:04:13,480 Speaker 3: but man, if we can somehow get a stop, number 2678 02:04:13,520 --> 02:04:16,840 Speaker 3: five can get us there. On offense, they're saying, height, 2679 02:04:16,920 --> 02:04:18,960 Speaker 3: number five got the ball. Eight, Everyone just block a 2680 02:04:19,000 --> 02:04:22,080 Speaker 3: little bit. Everyone run your route's a little tighter. He's 2681 02:04:22,120 --> 02:04:25,200 Speaker 3: gonna give us a chance. When you have hope in 2682 02:04:25,320 --> 02:04:28,839 Speaker 3: your quarterback, or your quarterback gives you hope, it changes 2683 02:04:28,920 --> 02:04:31,880 Speaker 3: the plight of the franchise. The commanders went from hoping 2684 02:04:31,920 --> 02:04:34,400 Speaker 3: they could maybe have a winning season. So now they're 2685 02:04:34,440 --> 02:04:36,120 Speaker 3: kind of looking around like, hey, guys, you know what, 2686 02:04:36,320 --> 02:04:39,839 Speaker 3: like maybe we can know that changes everything. 2687 02:04:39,920 --> 02:04:41,520 Speaker 1: That confidence is a major mover. 2688 02:04:42,120 --> 02:04:45,400 Speaker 4: Well we've seen it, just a complete reorganization. There still 2689 02:04:45,480 --> 02:04:50,120 Speaker 4: some vestiges of past regimes, etc. But overall, the attitude 2690 02:04:50,720 --> 02:04:54,640 Speaker 4: and the front office certainly shifting out as well as 2691 02:04:54,680 --> 02:04:57,120 Speaker 4: we look at the coaching staff. Dan Quinn comes in there. 2692 02:04:57,640 --> 02:05:00,560 Speaker 4: We had Jay Glazer on Thursday. He joins Smith and 2693 02:05:00,600 --> 02:05:03,720 Speaker 4: I each week after the Thursday night football game, and 2694 02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:06,000 Speaker 4: that he was quick to point out, you know you 2695 02:05:06,160 --> 02:05:09,440 Speaker 4: bring and we laugh about adults in the room. But 2696 02:05:09,560 --> 02:05:11,600 Speaker 4: there's something to be said for all right, this is 2697 02:05:11,760 --> 02:05:14,000 Speaker 4: this is the way we run things. There's no feel 2698 02:05:14,080 --> 02:05:17,200 Speaker 4: out process and no from day one, you know what 2699 02:05:17,280 --> 02:05:19,360 Speaker 4: you're getting with dan Quinn. And I got to say 2700 02:05:19,440 --> 02:05:22,880 Speaker 4: that speaks volumes to how quickly this thing was able 2701 02:05:22,960 --> 02:05:23,640 Speaker 4: to turn. 2702 02:05:24,960 --> 02:05:27,560 Speaker 1: So here's the thing, because we talked about is briefly 2703 02:05:27,680 --> 02:05:28,520 Speaker 1: with Andy. 2704 02:05:28,640 --> 02:05:31,400 Speaker 3: He talked about Mike Flores and I mean Brian Flores 2705 02:05:31,440 --> 02:05:32,800 Speaker 3: and whether he deserves. 2706 02:05:32,480 --> 02:05:33,440 Speaker 1: Another chance or whatever. 2707 02:05:34,200 --> 02:05:37,640 Speaker 3: Sometimes you have to go through that first run, make 2708 02:05:37,680 --> 02:05:40,280 Speaker 3: your mistakes, learn from it, grow from it, and you 2709 02:05:40,360 --> 02:05:43,320 Speaker 3: come back a better coach. Dan Quinn is a better 2710 02:05:43,360 --> 02:05:45,080 Speaker 3: coach because of all the things he went through, not 2711 02:05:45,200 --> 02:05:47,240 Speaker 3: only in leading them to the Super Bowl, but falling 2712 02:05:47,280 --> 02:05:48,800 Speaker 3: on his face in the Super Bowl with a twenty 2713 02:05:48,840 --> 02:05:51,080 Speaker 3: eight to three lead, not being able to turn that 2714 02:05:51,200 --> 02:05:54,080 Speaker 3: team back around, going to Dallas as a coordinator, re 2715 02:05:54,280 --> 02:05:57,880 Speaker 3: establishing himself as a top defensive mind, learning all of 2716 02:05:57,920 --> 02:06:00,280 Speaker 3: those things, and now taking it to Washington. Say that 2717 02:06:00,400 --> 02:06:03,120 Speaker 3: Jake Glazer comes in and says that from day one 2718 02:06:03,600 --> 02:06:05,640 Speaker 3: he established no, no, no, this is what we're doing things. 2719 02:06:05,680 --> 02:06:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm not I don't think we I know exactly what 2720 02:06:08,880 --> 02:06:11,480 Speaker 1: I want. This is what we're doing period. 2721 02:06:12,240 --> 02:06:14,680 Speaker 3: To me, there's some confidence that comes with that and 2722 02:06:14,760 --> 02:06:18,040 Speaker 3: the team knowing that your leader is definitive in terms 2723 02:06:18,080 --> 02:06:18,960 Speaker 3: of what he wants to do. 2724 02:06:20,040 --> 02:06:24,400 Speaker 4: Oh, he's the gun. But that's the thing direction, right, 2725 02:06:24,440 --> 02:06:27,760 Speaker 4: It's one thing because in Chicago, by way of contrast, 2726 02:06:27,840 --> 02:06:30,560 Speaker 4: you've got a guy that many still wonder what his 2727 02:06:30,680 --> 02:06:33,960 Speaker 4: future is, whether they int you know, new deals and 2728 02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:37,480 Speaker 4: add years on. For ibra Flus, the question was still 2729 02:06:37,560 --> 02:06:39,960 Speaker 4: how long is he the guy? And then you hire 2730 02:06:40,040 --> 02:06:43,520 Speaker 4: Waldron and through the first three weeks, I just call 2731 02:06:43,600 --> 02:06:46,440 Speaker 4: what it is, Bucky, it don't look great, don't look great, 2732 02:06:47,040 --> 02:06:49,680 Speaker 4: and and that, and that doesn't absolve Caleb from his 2733 02:06:50,080 --> 02:06:54,920 Speaker 4: his issues and decisions that he's made. But it's only context. Right, 2734 02:06:55,480 --> 02:06:56,600 Speaker 4: But here, here's what we know. 2735 02:06:57,640 --> 02:07:01,160 Speaker 3: The owner has paid the young quarterback. The young quarterback 2736 02:07:01,200 --> 02:07:03,760 Speaker 3: ain't going nowhere, right, so he's gonna be like, look 2737 02:07:04,160 --> 02:07:09,240 Speaker 3: because remember owners here everything from TV, so what they 2738 02:07:09,440 --> 02:07:12,600 Speaker 3: heard for a year and a half before they made 2739 02:07:12,600 --> 02:07:18,320 Speaker 3: the pick generational talent, game changer, franchise savior. So before 2740 02:07:18,400 --> 02:07:20,640 Speaker 3: they say, hey, the quarterback is wrong, they'll be like, nah, 2741 02:07:20,840 --> 02:07:23,560 Speaker 3: the coach is wrong because everyone in the outset world 2742 02:07:23,640 --> 02:07:27,280 Speaker 3: told me that this guy's the next coming, So y'all 2743 02:07:27,360 --> 02:07:30,680 Speaker 3: are messing it up. So yeah, Eva flus Waldron Deak crew, 2744 02:07:30,760 --> 02:07:33,480 Speaker 3: they'll go somebody else would come in and have an 2745 02:07:33,480 --> 02:07:35,720 Speaker 3: opportunity to maximize what Kay the Williams. 2746 02:07:35,440 --> 02:07:39,600 Speaker 4: Is and certainly looking at the roster construction, you know 2747 02:07:40,120 --> 02:07:43,000 Speaker 4: you can also say how much you love Roma Dunza 2748 02:07:43,160 --> 02:07:46,280 Speaker 4: while at the same time going boyant offensive lineman might 2749 02:07:46,320 --> 02:07:49,320 Speaker 4: have helped there, and you know, should try to support 2750 02:07:49,360 --> 02:07:52,000 Speaker 4: your number one overall. Pick right, we like the shiny things. 2751 02:07:52,080 --> 02:07:54,880 Speaker 4: It's all about infrastructure and look, you and I have 2752 02:07:54,960 --> 02:07:57,280 Speaker 4: been doing shows together for years and we probably talk 2753 02:07:57,400 --> 02:08:02,720 Speaker 4: more offensive and defensive line can instruction and continuity than most. 2754 02:08:02,840 --> 02:08:04,960 Speaker 4: It may bore some people, but you know that's how 2755 02:08:05,040 --> 02:08:06,400 Speaker 4: winning football is done. 2756 02:08:07,280 --> 02:08:10,720 Speaker 3: It's always going to be in the trenches. And I 2757 02:08:10,800 --> 02:08:13,640 Speaker 3: say this, and I'm sure we've had this conversation. Your 2758 02:08:13,680 --> 02:08:16,720 Speaker 3: team has to be built in the image of the city. 2759 02:08:17,720 --> 02:08:20,280 Speaker 3: So as much as I love all those fancy things 2760 02:08:20,360 --> 02:08:23,120 Speaker 3: and those shiny weapons that they have on the outside, 2761 02:08:23,160 --> 02:08:24,920 Speaker 3: and oh look at them throw the ball all over 2762 02:08:24,920 --> 02:08:27,360 Speaker 3: the yard, there's something to me that when I close 2763 02:08:27,400 --> 02:08:29,560 Speaker 3: my eydes and I think about the city of Chicago, 2764 02:08:30,040 --> 02:08:31,720 Speaker 3: and I think about the windy city, and I think 2765 02:08:31,760 --> 02:08:34,080 Speaker 3: about how tough it is. A blue collar city, one 2766 02:08:34,120 --> 02:08:37,320 Speaker 3: that fancies itself in having tough people. 2767 02:08:37,800 --> 02:08:41,400 Speaker 1: The team has to be tough. You can't establish a 2768 02:08:41,560 --> 02:08:44,440 Speaker 1: tough culture with guys on the perimeter. It has to 2769 02:08:44,520 --> 02:08:46,600 Speaker 1: start in the trenches. Old line, D line. 2770 02:08:46,960 --> 02:08:50,360 Speaker 3: So it's not only they didn't take an offensive lineman 2771 02:08:50,400 --> 02:08:53,000 Speaker 3: or whatever, but what about a defensive lineman to fortify 2772 02:08:53,080 --> 02:08:55,920 Speaker 3: the Bears defense. The monsters are the midwages what I've 2773 02:08:55,920 --> 02:08:58,200 Speaker 3: always heard about, right, Like, the defense should be the 2774 02:08:58,280 --> 02:08:59,640 Speaker 3: ones that are really getting it done. 2775 02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:03,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's cool, it's fun and exciting to think 2776 02:09:03,600 --> 02:09:06,320 Speaker 1: that your quarterback is gonna do it. But in Chicago 2777 02:09:06,400 --> 02:09:09,680 Speaker 1: does that ever work? Though? Has it worked? 2778 02:09:11,320 --> 02:09:13,800 Speaker 4: Because they've been taken many many bits at the apple, right, 2779 02:09:13,920 --> 02:09:17,080 Speaker 4: And this gets into the larger conversation. This is a 2780 02:09:17,120 --> 02:09:19,560 Speaker 4: therapy session with all of you across the globe here 2781 02:09:19,920 --> 02:09:23,640 Speaker 4: on the iHeartRadio app and our Fox Sports radio affiliates nationwide. 2782 02:09:24,320 --> 02:09:27,240 Speaker 4: But like they've traded for guys, they've made so many 2783 02:09:27,360 --> 02:09:31,120 Speaker 4: moves through the years, draft picks and look, the jersey 2784 02:09:31,240 --> 02:09:34,840 Speaker 4: may not be as long as the famous Cleveland Brown's 2785 02:09:35,840 --> 02:09:39,040 Speaker 4: quarterback jersey with all the names, but it's pretty damn close, 2786 02:09:39,760 --> 02:09:41,360 Speaker 4: you know, when you get it all through guys like 2787 02:09:41,520 --> 02:09:44,800 Speaker 4: David Fails and so many others. I mean, I'm surname 2788 02:09:44,920 --> 02:09:47,800 Speaker 4: that I don't know. It just sets you up badly. 2789 02:09:47,960 --> 02:09:50,240 Speaker 4: It's like naming your kid Jeeves. What's he gonna do? 2790 02:09:50,560 --> 02:09:52,920 Speaker 4: He's a butler, you know. So it's that kind of thing. 2791 02:09:53,160 --> 02:09:57,080 Speaker 4: But it's the idea that you've taken all these different 2792 02:09:57,120 --> 02:09:59,440 Speaker 4: ways and approaches to go through. I mean, for years, 2793 02:09:59,480 --> 02:10:02,640 Speaker 4: it's where wide receivers went to die, and they laughed 2794 02:10:02,640 --> 02:10:07,120 Speaker 4: about it openly Mohammad, right, I mean, but you know 2795 02:10:07,240 --> 02:10:09,760 Speaker 4: he actually put up some decent numbers where they went 2796 02:10:09,840 --> 02:10:11,120 Speaker 4: to die. I mean, you had a couple of years 2797 02:10:11,120 --> 02:10:13,760 Speaker 4: where he had Eric Kramer winging and around, but did 2798 02:10:13,800 --> 02:10:17,680 Speaker 4: it yield wins. No it didn't. Jake Cutler winging it around, 2799 02:10:17,960 --> 02:10:21,120 Speaker 4: Brandon Marshall was there, gave you a lot of good, 2800 02:10:21,600 --> 02:10:23,920 Speaker 4: but was it winning football? Well, they had the one 2801 02:10:24,000 --> 02:10:26,960 Speaker 4: year and then Cutler gets hurt and you know he 2802 02:10:27,080 --> 02:10:29,640 Speaker 4: kind of goes to hell. Right, you let the Packers 2803 02:10:30,080 --> 02:10:33,360 Speaker 4: back into the playoffs down the end of the regular season, 2804 02:10:33,440 --> 02:10:35,480 Speaker 4: and while they go on and beat you in the 2805 02:10:35,560 --> 02:10:39,480 Speaker 4: title game for the conference. But that all that to say, Yeah, 2806 02:10:39,520 --> 02:10:42,480 Speaker 4: it's usually been about the run game and about your defense, 2807 02:10:42,920 --> 02:10:47,040 Speaker 4: and right now your run game is non existent. It's 2808 02:10:47,240 --> 02:10:50,120 Speaker 4: just woefully short of what you need to support a 2809 02:10:50,200 --> 02:10:50,960 Speaker 4: young quarterback. 2810 02:10:52,960 --> 02:10:56,000 Speaker 3: I think the other thing that is interesting, right, And 2811 02:10:56,240 --> 02:10:57,840 Speaker 3: as a Bears fan, I asked you this said, I'm 2812 02:10:58,080 --> 02:11:01,080 Speaker 3: not trying to inflict pain, but I'm again, would be 2813 02:11:01,120 --> 02:11:02,680 Speaker 3: okay if you would be okay? 2814 02:11:03,240 --> 02:11:03,520 Speaker 1: Okay. 2815 02:11:03,640 --> 02:11:06,320 Speaker 3: So you see your former quarterback go to the Pittsburgh Steelers. 2816 02:11:06,920 --> 02:11:10,280 Speaker 3: All right, your former quarterback is leading the team that's 2817 02:11:10,320 --> 02:11:13,600 Speaker 3: three and oh. There hasn't been sexy on offense, but 2818 02:11:13,720 --> 02:11:16,000 Speaker 3: the team is three and oh the team is winning 2819 02:11:16,120 --> 02:11:18,520 Speaker 3: ugly football. And when I look at Steelers fans and 2820 02:11:18,760 --> 02:11:20,960 Speaker 3: I look at them win, it appears that they are 2821 02:11:21,000 --> 02:11:22,160 Speaker 3: okay winning. 2822 02:11:22,040 --> 02:11:23,000 Speaker 1: Ugly football games. 2823 02:11:23,120 --> 02:11:27,200 Speaker 3: As a Bears fan, would you be okay winning stylistically 2824 02:11:28,040 --> 02:11:31,360 Speaker 3: in a fashion that looks like the Pittsburgh Steelers? 2825 02:11:31,880 --> 02:11:33,640 Speaker 1: Are you okay winning ugly? Yeah? 2826 02:11:33,760 --> 02:11:36,160 Speaker 4: A bigger question, I think for me, and I think 2827 02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:38,520 Speaker 4: for most Bears fans, they just want the W at 2828 02:11:38,560 --> 02:11:41,720 Speaker 4: the end of the day. Style points would be nice. 2829 02:11:42,320 --> 02:11:44,360 Speaker 4: Now if I was doing it year to year like 2830 02:11:44,480 --> 02:11:46,440 Speaker 4: you see in Pittsburgh after a while and kind of 2831 02:11:46,480 --> 02:11:47,880 Speaker 4: get tired of that because I don't want to sweat 2832 02:11:47,920 --> 02:11:50,000 Speaker 4: out every game the same way, right. 2833 02:11:51,200 --> 02:11:51,880 Speaker 1: No, you know what? 2834 02:11:52,360 --> 02:11:54,320 Speaker 4: No, no, no, But where it's like, all right, well 2835 02:11:54,560 --> 02:11:56,320 Speaker 4: we might be able to make the playoffs, but can't 2836 02:11:56,360 --> 02:11:58,920 Speaker 4: we really do any damage? Because that's where Pittsburgh fans 2837 02:11:58,960 --> 02:12:01,600 Speaker 4: are right it is And this is a great start, 2838 02:12:01,880 --> 02:12:04,520 Speaker 4: there's no question about it. But is Arthur Smith going 2839 02:12:04,560 --> 02:12:07,200 Speaker 4: to be able to uncork something in that offense that 2840 02:12:07,400 --> 02:12:10,280 Speaker 4: makes them more viable and dangerous? Because if I got 2841 02:12:10,400 --> 02:12:12,640 Speaker 4: to grit my teeth and hope I'm getting to twenty 2842 02:12:12,720 --> 02:12:15,560 Speaker 4: points each week, Bucky, that's a that's a recipe for 2843 02:12:15,640 --> 02:12:20,000 Speaker 4: an ulcer for me. Now, can I do it for 2844 02:12:20,080 --> 02:12:21,920 Speaker 4: a year to get those WS shirt can I do 2845 02:12:21,960 --> 02:12:24,000 Speaker 4: it for two or three years yet? But my year 2846 02:12:24,120 --> 02:12:25,840 Speaker 4: ten of that, I'm like, come on, man. 2847 02:12:26,920 --> 02:12:29,520 Speaker 3: But then, but then my thing would be, is it 2848 02:12:29,600 --> 02:12:31,760 Speaker 3: really the football that's bringing about the ulcers? No, No, 2849 02:12:31,920 --> 02:12:36,680 Speaker 3: Chicago dog is the Chicago dog with the nitro green relish. 2850 02:12:37,600 --> 02:12:40,880 Speaker 4: Bringing that has not been proven to cause any health issue. 2851 02:12:42,800 --> 02:12:45,360 Speaker 4: I think we can all surmise based on the coloration 2852 02:12:45,560 --> 02:12:48,560 Speaker 4: that there's problems to be had, but I don't know 2853 02:12:48,680 --> 02:12:50,760 Speaker 4: that it's been proven to be a problem just yet. 2854 02:12:51,160 --> 02:12:54,240 Speaker 4: But but legitimately, yeah, it's like I think, if if 2855 02:12:54,280 --> 02:12:57,440 Speaker 4: you can get the style of football from Justin Fields 2856 02:12:57,480 --> 02:13:00,240 Speaker 4: and that balance and support that they have thus far 2857 02:13:00,360 --> 02:13:03,880 Speaker 4: through three games, and we'll see what happens here going forward. Right, 2858 02:13:03,960 --> 02:13:08,720 Speaker 4: obviously you got a winnable game against Indianapolis. This one 2859 02:13:08,800 --> 02:13:12,440 Speaker 4: feels very dangerous because Indianapolis has been terrible save a 2860 02:13:12,480 --> 02:13:15,880 Speaker 4: couple of big throws from Anthony Richardson, and last week 2861 02:13:15,920 --> 02:13:18,320 Speaker 4: they committed to running the ball with Jonathan Taylor, so 2862 02:13:18,960 --> 02:13:21,920 Speaker 4: that helped, you know, keep the mistakes to a minimum 2863 02:13:22,560 --> 02:13:24,960 Speaker 4: and kept the Bears defense on its heel. Right, they 2864 02:13:25,000 --> 02:13:28,040 Speaker 4: couldn't stop the run, just keep slamming it into the line, 2865 02:13:28,120 --> 02:13:32,000 Speaker 4: but yeah. I think if Justin Fields can play mistake 2866 02:13:32,040 --> 02:13:35,520 Speaker 4: free football and you can work at orchestrated offense to 2867 02:13:35,680 --> 02:13:39,000 Speaker 4: where you don't have those giveaways, I mean that's all anybody. 2868 02:13:39,520 --> 02:13:42,040 Speaker 4: I think at the end of the day, they loved 2869 02:13:42,080 --> 02:13:46,080 Speaker 4: the explosive and the flash, but yeah, just don't give 2870 02:13:46,160 --> 02:13:48,160 Speaker 4: a game away, right, Will Levis, we were talking about 2871 02:13:48,160 --> 02:13:50,640 Speaker 4: it last hour with Andy. It's like he's done a 2872 02:13:50,720 --> 02:13:52,680 Speaker 4: lot of great things, like if you go back and 2873 02:13:52,800 --> 02:13:55,440 Speaker 4: watch their three games, and then he's just made some 2874 02:13:56,320 --> 02:14:00,440 Speaker 4: numbingly stupid decisions that his coach is gonna have an 2875 02:14:00,440 --> 02:14:05,120 Speaker 4: aneurysm watching on the sideline, right, I mean, Callahan, I 2876 02:14:05,480 --> 02:14:08,200 Speaker 4: just want I just want a camera on him. I 2877 02:14:08,280 --> 02:14:10,760 Speaker 4: mean that's better than the Manning cast or anything else 2878 02:14:10,840 --> 02:14:14,240 Speaker 4: you could give me. Picture in picture, Oh my god, yes, 2879 02:14:14,400 --> 02:14:16,440 Speaker 4: play to play. I mean, he wears his heart on 2880 02:14:16,520 --> 02:14:18,800 Speaker 4: his sleeve and he can see the young guy's got 2881 02:14:18,880 --> 02:14:22,480 Speaker 4: some talent. He's slinging it at times. And then that 2882 02:14:22,640 --> 02:14:27,600 Speaker 4: play against Chicago just atrocious. The play last week, right, Hey, 2883 02:14:27,680 --> 02:14:30,200 Speaker 4: you're going down and just just eat the take the sack, 2884 02:14:30,680 --> 02:14:33,560 Speaker 4: live to see another day. Nope, I'm gonna try to 2885 02:14:33,600 --> 02:14:36,240 Speaker 4: make a play. I like it. To a degree, but 2886 02:14:36,320 --> 02:14:37,760 Speaker 4: you gotta rein it in And that was part of 2887 02:14:37,920 --> 02:14:41,000 Speaker 4: Justin Field's issue during during his time in Chicago. Not 2888 02:14:41,160 --> 02:14:43,320 Speaker 4: to mention you saw the podcast he did this week. 2889 02:14:43,720 --> 02:14:45,960 Speaker 4: They asked him the difference you know about coaching and 2890 02:14:46,120 --> 02:14:48,360 Speaker 4: he goes, oh, yeah, Pittsburgh without a doubt, like there 2891 02:14:48,440 --> 02:14:51,000 Speaker 4: was no hesitation, Like he could they could finish the 2892 02:14:51,160 --> 02:14:53,640 Speaker 4: and get the question mark in the end of the 2893 02:14:54,400 --> 02:14:56,960 Speaker 4: and what do you think you know, the little voice 2894 02:14:57,000 --> 02:15:00,320 Speaker 4: inflection for the question out before he was answering. 2895 02:15:01,880 --> 02:15:05,040 Speaker 1: That's not good, that's not good. 2896 02:15:05,440 --> 02:15:07,520 Speaker 4: But he goes back to what we were talking about, right, 2897 02:15:07,640 --> 02:15:12,680 Speaker 4: organizational stability and coaches with a distinct line in the 2898 02:15:12,800 --> 02:15:14,960 Speaker 4: stand of who they are and Mike Tomblin there's nobody 2899 02:15:15,040 --> 02:15:15,480 Speaker 4: better than that. 2900 02:15:17,280 --> 02:15:20,640 Speaker 3: Uh, and I would say this is the belief, right. 2901 02:15:21,520 --> 02:15:25,160 Speaker 3: Did he ever feel like anybody in that building really 2902 02:15:25,240 --> 02:15:29,160 Speaker 3: believed in him?

And all of 2921 02:16:14,680 --> 02:16:17,520 Speaker 4: a sudden, my eyebrows are raised.

There's your PSA for 2932 02:16:52,440 --> 02:16:54,400 Speaker 4: the morning at Bucky Brooks where you find him on Twitter. 2933 02:16:54,480 --> 02:16:56,760 Speaker 4: Find me over at Swollen Dome. Do a lot on 2934 02:16:56,800 --> 02:16:59,240 Speaker 4: the NFL here, Bucky, but we do take our turn 2935 02:16:59,320 --> 02:17:01,680 Speaker 4: back into the car college football world. We had a 2936 02:17:01,720 --> 02:17:06,960 Speaker 4: couple of monster games yesterday too, in particular that had 2937 02:17:07,040 --> 02:17:09,600 Speaker 4: my rapped attention. Now I watch a lot of Big ten, 2938 02:17:09,760 --> 02:17:12,480 Speaker 4: but we'll push that off to the side for now. 2939 02:17:12,600 --> 02:17:16,280 Speaker 4: We had the Alabama Georgia game, which is to say, 2940 02:17:16,440 --> 02:17:19,840 Speaker 4: this is not your father's Alabama Georgia game forty one 2941 02:17:20,000 --> 02:17:23,280 Speaker 4: thirty four, and at times I felt like I was 2942 02:17:23,520 --> 02:17:26,080 Speaker 4: cheated that nobody gave me a joystick with some of 2943 02:17:26,160 --> 02:17:29,360 Speaker 4: the spin moves in big play capability in that one 2944 02:17:29,520 --> 02:17:32,880 Speaker 4: mill row back after a miserable first half, it was 2945 02:17:33,000 --> 02:17:36,520 Speaker 4: what thirty to seven at the break, they charged back 2946 02:17:36,640 --> 02:17:40,240 Speaker 4: take a temporary lead before Alabama strikes right back again. 2947 02:17:40,720 --> 02:17:42,240 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know if you know this, but 2948 02:17:42,400 --> 02:17:46,080 Speaker 4: the wide receiver is only seventeen years old. I think 2949 02:17:46,120 --> 02:17:47,920 Speaker 4: that was said thirty seven times. You were doing a 2950 02:17:48,000 --> 02:17:50,680 Speaker 4: drinking game. You were under the table before he ever 2951 02:17:50,760 --> 02:17:54,560 Speaker 4: made that play. Yeah, but forty one, thirty four and 2952 02:17:54,680 --> 02:17:58,680 Speaker 4: Jalen Milroe coming out with a massive game thirty seventy 2953 02:17:58,720 --> 02:18:02,000 Speaker 4: four and two another h seventeen and two on the ground. 2954 02:18:03,920 --> 02:18:07,440 Speaker 3: You know what's remarkable about Jaln Milroe. Just think about 2955 02:18:07,440 --> 02:18:10,240 Speaker 3: where we were this time last year, how people were 2956 02:18:10,760 --> 02:18:13,960 Speaker 3: ready to dump him, calling for his head, mad at him. 2957 02:18:14,120 --> 02:18:16,800 Speaker 3: They had just slucked through a disappointing performance against South Florida. 2958 02:18:17,480 --> 02:18:20,920 Speaker 3: To see him become the player that he's become is amazing. 2959 02:18:21,360 --> 02:18:23,160 Speaker 3: Before I give credit to Kaitlyn de Boy, I want 2960 02:18:23,160 --> 02:18:26,200 Speaker 3: to give credit to Nick Saban for kind of jumping 2961 02:18:26,280 --> 02:18:27,440 Speaker 3: in and say, hey, you know what, he's going to 2962 02:18:27,480 --> 02:18:28,000 Speaker 3: be our quarterback. 2963 02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:29,360 Speaker 1: We're going to figure out a way to use him. 2964 02:18:29,680 --> 02:18:30,320 Speaker 1: And they've done it. 2965 02:18:30,600 --> 02:18:32,360 Speaker 3: But I'm gonna say Kaitlyn de Boy has taken him 2966 02:18:32,360 --> 02:18:35,920 Speaker 3: to another level. The player that played last night was remarkable. 2967 02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:38,280 Speaker 3: And look, he made interceptions, he made some plays, but man, 2968 02:18:38,360 --> 02:18:42,080 Speaker 3: this dude as a just from a collegiate standpoint, his 2969 02:18:42,240 --> 02:18:45,520 Speaker 3: ability to make plays as a dual threat is something else. 2970 02:18:45,600 --> 02:18:47,560 Speaker 3: Because he has the size and the speed of a 2971 02:18:47,720 --> 02:18:51,000 Speaker 3: running back, a true running back turning the corner, and 2972 02:18:51,120 --> 02:18:56,160 Speaker 3: he has become a more efficient passer. Alabama is dangerous 2973 02:18:56,200 --> 02:18:59,040 Speaker 3: with the tool threat like that in the mix. And look, 2974 02:18:59,040 --> 02:19:01,840 Speaker 3: I'll say this, I saw Jalen Hurts play for them. 2975 02:19:02,760 --> 02:19:05,520 Speaker 3: To me, he's a little more dynamic than Jalen Hurst wasn't. 2976 02:19:05,600 --> 02:19:08,119 Speaker 3: Jalen Hurst was sec Offensive Player of the Year as 2977 02:19:08,160 --> 02:19:12,280 Speaker 3: a freshman down the end of offense. That transformation has 2978 02:19:12,320 --> 02:19:13,760 Speaker 3: been really fun to watch. 2979 02:19:14,040 --> 02:19:16,240 Speaker 4: No question about it. Kirby Smart, on the other hand, 2980 02:19:16,520 --> 02:19:19,800 Speaker 4: try to figure out how he solves the Alabama riddle. 2981 02:19:19,879 --> 02:19:22,600 Speaker 4: Now the other game. Bring this up. We've talked about him. 2982 02:19:22,600 --> 02:19:24,640 Speaker 4: We've got to give him the flowers. When they go 2983 02:19:24,720 --> 02:19:26,680 Speaker 4: it out and do big things. I don't know how 2984 02:19:26,720 --> 02:19:32,440 Speaker 4: many others will. Colorado forty eight, UCF twenty one an 2985 02:19:32,520 --> 02:19:37,800 Speaker 4: absolute beat down and clinic Schadur Sanders and Travis Hunter. Lookay, 2986 02:19:38,040 --> 02:19:41,120 Speaker 4: I'll always applaud when you see the good. You know, 2987 02:19:41,600 --> 02:19:43,360 Speaker 4: it's the old facts of life. Take the good, take 2988 02:19:43,400 --> 02:19:48,320 Speaker 4: the bad. Certainly when it bleeds it leads is how 2989 02:19:48,360 --> 02:19:52,320 Speaker 4: we do most sports stock But for me, let's do 2990 02:19:52,440 --> 02:19:54,920 Speaker 4: some celebrations here. The fact that they committed to the 2991 02:19:55,000 --> 02:19:57,760 Speaker 4: run game here, Bucky, that was the thing that struck 2992 02:19:57,840 --> 02:20:00,520 Speaker 4: me from the moment and the out set of this 2993 02:20:00,720 --> 02:20:04,760 Speaker 4: game and twenty nine carries one hundred and twenty eight yards, 2994 02:20:04,879 --> 02:20:08,520 Speaker 4: two touchdowns on the ground. Everybody got fed. Nobody with 2995 02:20:08,640 --> 02:20:11,720 Speaker 4: a monster game, but everybody pounding it up the gut, 2996 02:20:11,959 --> 02:20:15,400 Speaker 4: getting to the outside and making life a lot easier 2997 02:20:15,480 --> 02:20:19,360 Speaker 4: for Shador Sanders because notice UCF, he wasn't quite clean 2998 02:20:19,520 --> 02:20:22,320 Speaker 4: Jersey Club. But that's about as close as he's ever gotten. 2999 02:20:23,480 --> 02:20:26,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent. Now here's what I say and 3000 02:20:26,560 --> 02:20:29,760 Speaker 3: everyone should know. For disclosure, Coach Frime and our friends 3001 02:20:30,680 --> 02:20:35,280 Speaker 3: we talked frequently. He is someone that I really have 3002 02:20:35,760 --> 02:20:37,360 Speaker 3: spent a lot of time talking to him about his 3003 02:20:37,440 --> 02:20:39,959 Speaker 3: ambitions as a coach. I remember when he was coaching 3004 02:20:40,040 --> 02:20:41,680 Speaker 3: high school ball or whatever, and I think people have 3005 02:20:41,760 --> 02:20:42,759 Speaker 3: to understand. 3006 02:20:42,800 --> 02:20:44,960 Speaker 1: This is not his first rodeo when it comes to coaching. 3007 02:20:45,040 --> 02:20:47,640 Speaker 3: So when there was a lot of consternation and outrage 3008 02:20:47,680 --> 02:20:50,160 Speaker 3: about him in Colorado, could he stick? People have to 3009 02:20:50,160 --> 02:20:52,640 Speaker 3: remember before you even got the Jackson State, he spent 3010 02:20:52,760 --> 02:20:54,400 Speaker 3: more than a decade coaching. 3011 02:20:54,400 --> 02:20:56,320 Speaker 1: High school and youth ball and all this other stuff 3012 02:20:56,360 --> 02:20:58,879 Speaker 1: all over. So like he is committed to being a coach. 3013 02:20:59,400 --> 02:21:02,320 Speaker 3: And what good coaches do is they adapt and adjust, 3014 02:21:02,760 --> 02:21:05,959 Speaker 3: and they've adapted to the personnel they've had, they've adjusted 3015 02:21:05,959 --> 02:21:06,640 Speaker 3: the way they're. 3016 02:21:06,480 --> 02:21:10,279 Speaker 1: Playing and the beginning to win games. And the danger 3017 02:21:10,440 --> 02:21:13,240 Speaker 1: comes in if they can crack the code and figure 3018 02:21:13,280 --> 02:21:14,760 Speaker 1: out how to become. 3019 02:21:14,560 --> 02:21:17,440 Speaker 3: A really good team by eliminating to self inflict the mistakes, 3020 02:21:17,480 --> 02:21:20,680 Speaker 3: which you didn't see many of them yesterday, by playing 3021 02:21:20,920 --> 02:21:24,280 Speaker 3: a balanced ball where they have offense, defense and special 3022 02:21:24,360 --> 02:21:26,879 Speaker 3: teams working together, and they mean in balance on offense 3023 02:21:26,959 --> 02:21:30,400 Speaker 3: in terms of run pass ratio, they can win games. 3024 02:21:30,600 --> 02:21:32,680 Speaker 3: And so what that game did is, I know there's 3025 02:21:32,680 --> 02:21:34,320 Speaker 3: a lot of bravado on how they do it whatever. 3026 02:21:34,959 --> 02:21:38,480 Speaker 3: I think that game gave them so much confidence. They're 3027 02:21:38,560 --> 02:21:41,080 Speaker 3: going to be a different kind of team when they 3028 02:21:41,120 --> 02:21:43,560 Speaker 3: square off against Kansas State in two weeks, because that's 3029 02:21:43,560 --> 02:21:46,440 Speaker 3: going to be a big game. It'll be hyped up. 3030 02:21:46,560 --> 02:21:48,360 Speaker 3: Kansas State is a really good team. I saw them 3031 02:21:48,440 --> 02:21:52,880 Speaker 3: mollywop Oklahoma State yesterday. So the Buffalo's will be underdogs, 3032 02:21:53,400 --> 02:21:56,600 Speaker 3: but it'll almost be a signature statement game if they're 3033 02:21:56,600 --> 02:21:58,920 Speaker 3: able to do it, and it could really take the 3034 02:21:59,000 --> 02:21:59,480 Speaker 3: program to. 3035 02:21:59,480 --> 02:22:01,360 Speaker 1: Another level if they able to knock off k State 3036 02:22:01,400 --> 02:22:01,800 Speaker 1: in two weeks. 3037 02:22:01,959 --> 02:22:05,560 Speaker 4: Double digit dog yesterday came in and you know, just 3038 02:22:05,680 --> 02:22:08,439 Speaker 4: watching on the sideline obviously got a lot of luminaries 3039 02:22:08,480 --> 02:22:12,240 Speaker 4: that make the runs, but the guy that and he 3040 02:22:12,360 --> 02:22:17,400 Speaker 4: was featured prominently on the telecast Phil load Hold second 3041 02:22:17,480 --> 02:22:19,960 Speaker 4: round pick of the Vikings coming out of Colorado all 3042 02:22:20,000 --> 02:22:22,080 Speaker 4: those years ago. I remember writing and doing a bunch 3043 02:22:22,120 --> 02:22:25,080 Speaker 4: of bits on him heading into the draft and seeing 3044 02:22:25,200 --> 02:22:29,960 Speaker 4: him getting fired up and getting that front five on 3045 02:22:30,040 --> 02:22:32,959 Speaker 4: the right page. You know, if they can get consistency 3046 02:22:33,480 --> 02:22:35,800 Speaker 4: out of those guys, I mean, look at what that 3047 02:22:35,959 --> 02:22:38,760 Speaker 4: unlocked yesterday. I mean, they may have just scratched the surface, 3048 02:22:40,480 --> 02:22:40,720 Speaker 4: oh one. 3049 02:22:41,760 --> 02:22:44,920 Speaker 1: And you know the thing that that coch Frym talked about. 3050 02:22:44,959 --> 02:22:48,560 Speaker 3: He talked about just having pros around him, because everyone 3051 02:22:48,600 --> 02:22:50,240 Speaker 3: wanted to know, why would he go get Pat Schirmer, 3052 02:22:50,240 --> 02:22:54,199 Speaker 3: Why would he go and get a pro dB coach 3053 02:22:54,280 --> 02:22:57,280 Speaker 3: to be their defensive coordinated. He said, because he wanted 3054 02:22:57,320 --> 02:22:59,600 Speaker 3: the same mindset so he could relate to them when 3055 02:22:59,600 --> 02:23:02,040 Speaker 3: they were talking about adjustments and approach and all of 3056 02:23:02,120 --> 02:23:02,640 Speaker 3: those things. 3057 02:23:04,000 --> 02:23:04,800 Speaker 1: It's beginning to work. 3058 02:23:04,800 --> 02:23:08,560 Speaker 3: And I will say this for watching Shaduer It's not 3059 02:23:08,720 --> 02:23:11,200 Speaker 3: the first time, but it's one of the few times 3060 02:23:11,240 --> 02:23:12,760 Speaker 3: in a long time that I've seen him play with 3061 02:23:12,879 --> 02:23:16,560 Speaker 3: the calmness and the composure, the cool part of his 3062 02:23:16,760 --> 02:23:18,960 Speaker 3: game where he didn't get too rout or didn't get 3063 02:23:19,000 --> 02:23:22,240 Speaker 3: out of source, didn't get distracted by the conversation and 3064 02:23:22,320 --> 02:23:24,720 Speaker 3: the talking and all the other stuff that sometimes seeps 3065 02:23:24,720 --> 02:23:25,360 Speaker 3: into his game. 3066 02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:28,000 Speaker 1: He was really locked in and his team is locked in. 3067 02:23:28,400 --> 02:23:31,440 Speaker 3: But before I talk about all those other guys, Travis 3068 02:23:31,520 --> 02:23:33,320 Speaker 3: Hunt is the best college football player in the country. 3069 02:23:34,000 --> 02:23:38,039 Speaker 3: What Travis Hunter does is remarkable, his two way ability, 3070 02:23:38,280 --> 02:23:41,880 Speaker 3: what he does offense defense. When we talk about defining 3071 02:23:41,920 --> 02:23:45,040 Speaker 3: the Heisman Trophy, that is what the Heisman Trophy should be. 3072 02:23:45,400 --> 02:23:47,760 Speaker 3: Best player that impacts the game in a bunch of ways. 3073 02:23:48,240 --> 02:23:49,200 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter is good. 3074 02:23:49,720 --> 02:23:52,400 Speaker 4: Oh, he's fun to watch. And you know, it's just 3075 02:23:52,480 --> 02:23:54,360 Speaker 4: one of those questions as we go through the long 3076 02:23:54,440 --> 02:23:56,920 Speaker 4: grind of a season, though, Bucky, when we're talking about 3077 02:23:56,920 --> 02:23:59,600 Speaker 4: one hundred and thirty two plays or whatever those numbers 3078 02:23:59,600 --> 02:24:02,800 Speaker 4: are weekly basis, it's a question I will and we'll 3079 02:24:02,840 --> 02:24:04,440 Speaker 4: wait and see. Right, We'll see at the end of 3080 02:24:04,480 --> 02:24:06,400 Speaker 4: the season how this works out. I don't know that 3081 02:24:06,600 --> 02:24:09,880 Speaker 4: last year by the end necessarily a fair you know, 3082 02:24:10,560 --> 02:24:12,840 Speaker 4: recognition of it all based on the way the season 3083 02:24:12,920 --> 02:24:15,800 Speaker 4: went for them. After the early September and some of 3084 02:24:15,840 --> 02:24:18,879 Speaker 4: those games. But I always wondered, you know, going back 3085 02:24:18,920 --> 02:24:22,320 Speaker 4: to the streak of Saya cal Ripken, if maybe a 3086 02:24:22,400 --> 02:24:24,400 Speaker 4: day or two off in early September would have done 3087 02:24:24,480 --> 02:24:28,200 Speaker 4: him some good for Pennant stretches. That's all. It's one 3088 02:24:28,240 --> 02:24:30,439 Speaker 4: of those kind of things in terms of being judicious 3089 02:24:30,959 --> 02:24:34,760 Speaker 4: of how you're using a guy overall, and it's more 3090 02:24:34,800 --> 02:24:36,959 Speaker 4: towards the eye of the next level of how things 3091 02:24:37,040 --> 02:24:41,160 Speaker 4: get adjudicated and where he fits in the next program. 3092 02:24:41,280 --> 02:24:45,040 Speaker 4: But certainly, right now, maybe he's the best player on 3093 02:24:45,160 --> 02:24:46,880 Speaker 4: the field at every point. 3094 02:24:47,879 --> 02:24:48,160 Speaker 1: He is. 3095 02:24:48,200 --> 02:24:50,440 Speaker 3: You know, the funny thing is he will end up 3096 02:24:50,480 --> 02:24:52,400 Speaker 3: playing in fewer plays when he gets to the pros 3097 02:24:52,440 --> 02:24:52,680 Speaker 3: than he. 3098 02:24:52,680 --> 02:24:56,320 Speaker 1: Does in college. Yeah, on average, on offense. 3099 02:24:56,680 --> 02:25:01,000 Speaker 3: NFL team different pace sixty five to seventy plays. Right now, 3100 02:25:01,040 --> 02:25:03,680 Speaker 3: you're talking about college games where offenses are having like 3101 02:25:03,680 --> 02:25:06,680 Speaker 3: one hundred players a piece and those things. And as 3102 02:25:06,760 --> 02:25:10,520 Speaker 3: I liken it, when I think about the pro game, 3103 02:25:11,360 --> 02:25:13,400 Speaker 3: he could at least be a number three receiver at 3104 02:25:13,440 --> 02:25:13,920 Speaker 3: a minimum. 3105 02:25:14,000 --> 02:25:15,400 Speaker 1: Right sure, he could at least. 3106 02:25:15,280 --> 02:25:17,160 Speaker 3: Be your guy on third down that comes in and 3107 02:25:17,360 --> 02:25:19,480 Speaker 3: is one of your three or four receiver packages and 3108 02:25:19,600 --> 02:25:23,240 Speaker 3: does some things We know he's a standout player on defense, 3109 02:25:23,720 --> 02:25:26,680 Speaker 3: so however you choose to use him, whether he is 3110 02:25:26,760 --> 02:25:30,440 Speaker 3: your number like a starting receiver and your nickel We 3111 02:25:30,560 --> 02:25:34,240 Speaker 3: saw Troy Brown play nickelback for the Patriots. We don't 3112 02:25:34,240 --> 02:25:35,840 Speaker 3: think that he can at least do what Troy Brown 3113 02:25:35,879 --> 02:25:38,240 Speaker 3: did for the Patriots. So that's why I think there 3114 02:25:38,320 --> 02:25:40,400 Speaker 3: is a path for him to be able to play 3115 02:25:40,440 --> 02:25:42,520 Speaker 3: both sides of the ball. But you're right, you have 3116 02:25:42,600 --> 02:25:45,480 Speaker 3: to do you have to be judicious in how you 3117 02:25:45,720 --> 02:25:48,680 Speaker 3: use him. But I absolutely think someone will be crazy 3118 02:25:48,720 --> 02:25:50,160 Speaker 3: if they don't use him on both sides of the ball. 3119 02:25:50,280 --> 02:25:53,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's fun to watch regardless. And look, we always 3120 02:25:53,720 --> 02:25:56,960 Speaker 4: look for storylines and we love when the threads continue. 3121 02:25:57,000 --> 02:26:01,199 Speaker 4: I know certainly someone will find some with something somebody 3122 02:26:01,280 --> 02:26:05,640 Speaker 4: celebrated too long or whatever. Play yesterday was an absolute 3123 02:26:05,720 --> 02:26:08,320 Speaker 4: clinic and the balance on offense the thing that stood 3124 02:26:08,360 --> 02:26:10,400 Speaker 4: out to me.

We talked a lot about the 3184 02:29:21,600 --> 02:29:24,880 Speaker 4: the NFC East. Little Jaden Daniels love some of the 3185 02:29:25,360 --> 02:29:29,040 Speaker 4: fallout from the Giants, but certainly the Cowboys always at 3186 02:29:29,120 --> 02:29:31,560 Speaker 4: the forefront of our minds when we talk NFL. Bucky. 3187 02:29:31,640 --> 02:29:34,400 Speaker 4: It's just the price of doing business and the goal 3188 02:29:34,520 --> 02:29:36,920 Speaker 4: that Jerry Jones gives us on a weekly basis. But 3189 02:29:37,000 --> 02:29:41,800 Speaker 4: how about this former NFL coach defensive coordinator now pundit 3190 02:29:42,480 --> 02:29:44,800 Speaker 4: and I'll spare you at Sunday morning, all the other 3191 02:29:44,879 --> 02:29:46,800 Speaker 4: jokes that usually get associated with his name, but a 3192 02:29:46,800 --> 02:29:50,280 Speaker 4: direct tryan he appeared on the d Pietro and Rothenberg 3193 02:29:50,360 --> 02:29:53,199 Speaker 4: Show indicated that well, he could have been the Cowboys 3194 02:29:53,280 --> 02:29:57,480 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator this year, but they weren't unable to really 3195 02:29:58,000 --> 02:30:01,080 Speaker 4: reach a financial settlement. I could have fixed it in 3196 02:30:01,160 --> 02:30:03,560 Speaker 4: a New York minute, but they wouldn't pony up the money. 3197 02:30:03,800 --> 02:30:05,560 Speaker 4: But I would have been there. So Mike Zimmer's there. 3198 02:30:05,840 --> 02:30:08,400 Speaker 4: They're giving up twenty nine point seven points per game, 3199 02:30:08,800 --> 02:30:11,080 Speaker 4: last in rushing yards, giving up one hundred and eighty 3200 02:30:11,120 --> 02:30:13,720 Speaker 4: six a game twenty eighth and total yards allowed near 3201 02:30:13,800 --> 02:30:17,920 Speaker 4: least three hundred and seventy five. And Ryan very pointy 3202 02:30:17,959 --> 02:30:21,000 Speaker 4: with his comments about Zimmer's lack of success the last 3203 02:30:21,080 --> 02:30:24,760 Speaker 4: couple of years he was in Minnesota and calling all 3204 02:30:24,840 --> 02:30:28,199 Speaker 4: that out. I bring this up, not I mean Rex 3205 02:30:28,400 --> 02:30:32,760 Speaker 4: being Rex, but you have a broken defense, an offense 3206 02:30:32,840 --> 02:30:36,880 Speaker 4: that can't run the ball, and now Micah Parsons and 3207 02:30:37,120 --> 02:30:42,880 Speaker 4: Lawrence are off your defense indefinitely. How do you fix it? 3208 02:30:42,959 --> 02:30:46,879 Speaker 4: Bucky Man? What kind of cape can Dak Prescott get? 3209 02:30:47,680 --> 02:30:49,680 Speaker 4: He and Cede Lamb to try to make this thing 3210 02:30:50,080 --> 02:30:50,680 Speaker 4: machine run? 3211 02:30:51,920 --> 02:30:55,000 Speaker 3: I think you have to put yourself in a position 3212 02:30:55,120 --> 02:30:59,920 Speaker 3: where hopefully you've committed to developing some of those younger players. 3213 02:31:00,760 --> 02:31:05,440 Speaker 1: And look, those guys have to play, and they have 3214 02:31:05,560 --> 02:31:08,400 Speaker 1: to play right away, and they got to play well. 3215 02:31:10,000 --> 02:31:11,640 Speaker 3: I think if you're Mike Zimmer, you continue to do 3216 02:31:11,720 --> 02:31:13,960 Speaker 3: the thing, because really, it was one bad performance to 3217 02:31:14,040 --> 02:31:14,840 Speaker 3: really set them apart. 3218 02:31:14,879 --> 02:31:16,959 Speaker 1: They couldn't figure out how to slow down the Saints. 3219 02:31:18,720 --> 02:31:21,880 Speaker 3: But if they can figure out how to stop the 3220 02:31:21,959 --> 02:31:25,760 Speaker 3: running game without Michael Partons, without the Marcus Lawrence, they 3221 02:31:25,800 --> 02:31:27,600 Speaker 3: still can be Okay, here's what I'll say. 3222 02:31:27,720 --> 02:31:30,279 Speaker 1: Rex Ryan obviously love some Rex Ryan. 3223 02:31:30,400 --> 02:31:33,200 Speaker 3: Which is why he's talking. I would say out of 3224 02:31:33,320 --> 02:31:38,440 Speaker 3: turn when it comes to those things. But look, I 3225 02:31:38,480 --> 02:31:41,119 Speaker 3: don't think the defense is as bad as it appears. 3226 02:31:41,760 --> 02:31:44,320 Speaker 3: I think the defense has to be stellar though, because 3227 02:31:44,360 --> 02:31:45,480 Speaker 3: the offense isn't. 3228 02:31:45,320 --> 02:31:46,160 Speaker 1: What it once was. 3229 02:31:46,600 --> 02:31:48,640 Speaker 3: They're not scoring the points that they're not capable of 3230 02:31:48,640 --> 02:31:51,080 Speaker 3: scoring the points that they used to score, so now 3231 02:31:51,160 --> 02:31:54,480 Speaker 3: they have to keep the score down more so than hey, 3232 02:31:54,560 --> 02:31:56,160 Speaker 3: look man, we just got a band, but don't break 3233 02:31:56,520 --> 02:31:58,800 Speaker 3: in those things. So it's a different style. But Mike 3234 02:31:58,840 --> 02:32:00,800 Speaker 3: Zimmer has been around the league too long. He's had 3235 02:32:00,840 --> 02:32:04,040 Speaker 3: too much success to not figure it out and as 3236 02:32:04,120 --> 02:32:06,520 Speaker 3: much as I love Rex Ryant, Rex Ryan is not 3237 02:32:06,600 --> 02:32:08,600 Speaker 3: the greatest defensive corner that has ever lived. 3238 02:32:09,120 --> 02:32:11,320 Speaker 1: I mean, he's done some good things, but he's not that. 3239 02:32:11,440 --> 02:32:13,800 Speaker 3: So he's had some down moments tooma, I'm gonna hang 3240 02:32:13,920 --> 02:32:15,640 Speaker 3: in with Zimmer and I'm gonna say that Zimmer finds 3241 02:32:15,680 --> 02:32:17,240 Speaker 3: a way to crack the code and fix it. 3242 02:32:17,360 --> 02:32:19,600 Speaker 4: Now. I know he missed the fifty one yarder and 3243 02:32:20,000 --> 02:32:23,039 Speaker 4: the points spread was five and a half. He ends 3244 02:32:23,120 --> 02:32:26,160 Speaker 4: up in Cowboys five point win. But post Malone showed 3245 02:32:26,200 --> 02:32:28,480 Speaker 4: you who was the best Cowboy on the team when 3246 02:32:28,520 --> 02:32:31,640 Speaker 4: he walked out in a Brandon Aubrey jersey. Because go 3247 02:32:31,760 --> 02:32:33,600 Speaker 4: back to that win against Cleveland, what did they do? 3248 02:32:33,720 --> 02:32:36,280 Speaker 4: They settled for long field goals. They put up a 3249 02:32:36,320 --> 02:32:38,360 Speaker 4: big point total, but it wasn't because they were putting 3250 02:32:38,440 --> 02:32:38,959 Speaker 4: up sixes. 3251 02:32:40,720 --> 02:32:44,560 Speaker 1: No, they they the special teams have been their best players. 3252 02:32:45,360 --> 02:32:47,800 Speaker 3: They had a long return in that game against Cleveland, 3253 02:32:47,879 --> 02:32:50,600 Speaker 3: upon return for a touchdown, then they had the field 3254 02:32:50,680 --> 02:32:53,920 Speaker 3: goals and the field goal. The playcareer has been nails. Yeah, 3255 02:32:53,959 --> 02:32:54,800 Speaker 3: that's why they've been winning. 3256 02:32:54,800 --> 02:32:55,360 Speaker 1: It ain't been. 3257 02:32:55,320 --> 02:32:58,240 Speaker 3: Because of like Dak and those guys going crazy. It's 3258 02:32:58,280 --> 02:33:00,280 Speaker 3: been because they've been really efficient, and specially the teams 3259 02:33:00,280 --> 02:33:02,680 Speaker 3: that playing compromentary revolve when they got it done. Now 3260 02:33:02,840 --> 02:33:05,520 Speaker 3: we saw against the Giants, that's who the Cowboys are. 3261 02:33:06,400 --> 02:33:08,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, grind it out and just hope that you're the 3262 02:33:08,800 --> 02:33:12,840 Speaker 4: opposing quarterback. Can't hit on a big play again, confidence 3263 02:33:12,959 --> 02:33:16,240 Speaker 4: slash physicality. Wondering where Daniel Jones is on that continuing 3264 02:33:16,280 --> 02:33:19,520 Speaker 4: because he had a couple of opportunities broken coverages downfield 3265 02:33:19,560 --> 02:33:22,040 Speaker 4: that just couldn't make the make the throw. But here's 3266 02:33:22,080 --> 02:33:25,160 Speaker 4: the Cowboys. Next couple of games here, Bucky at Pittsburgh. 3267 02:33:25,879 --> 02:33:28,400 Speaker 4: Then they've got the Lions, and then they're at the 3268 02:33:28,480 --> 02:33:35,080 Speaker 4: forty nine ers. That's tough, and maybe by November third 3269 02:33:35,160 --> 02:33:37,840 Speaker 4: we'll know who the Falcons are and then you got 3270 02:33:37,879 --> 02:33:42,800 Speaker 4: the Eagles and Texans thereafter. So as King George sang 3271 02:33:42,879 --> 02:33:47,600 Speaker 4: in Hamilton, good luck.

But 3297 02:35:06,040 --> 02:35:09,200 Speaker 4: today I'd bring Chris in for a very specific reason. 3298 02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:13,160 Speaker 4: He walked in holding I was waiting for him to 3299 02:35:13,200 --> 02:35:15,440 Speaker 4: put it like on a pole so he can wave 3300 02:35:15,480 --> 02:35:17,000 Speaker 4: it around like a flag. But he's got a Tommy 3301 02:35:17,000 --> 02:35:21,600 Speaker 4: Devido jersey and he's waving around like a madman. Here, Chris. 3302 02:35:22,040 --> 02:35:25,360 Speaker 7: I got this after the Packers game last year, that 3303 02:35:25,600 --> 02:35:28,480 Speaker 7: magical victory. And I'm just saying there's a lot of 3304 02:35:28,520 --> 02:35:31,119 Speaker 7: problems right now with the Giants, but also a lot 3305 02:35:31,160 --> 02:35:34,320 Speaker 7: of really cool young, you know, talent on that offense. 3306 02:35:35,720 --> 02:35:38,440 Speaker 7: And I'm not saying Daniel Jones is the problem, but 3307 02:35:38,560 --> 02:35:41,280 Speaker 7: I am. I am hoping for a return at some 3308 02:35:41,400 --> 02:35:46,320 Speaker 7: point this season for my beloved Italian sons. There you go, 3309 02:35:46,480 --> 02:35:51,280 Speaker 7: Bucky Cutless, Tommy Cutler's baby. This is one of these 3310 02:35:51,360 --> 02:35:53,640 Speaker 7: jerseys that like it's always gonna have a story to it, right, Well, 3311 02:35:53,680 --> 02:35:54,280 Speaker 7: but that's just it. 3312 02:35:54,440 --> 02:35:57,280 Speaker 4: Right He becomes a legend, whether he plays another down 3313 02:35:57,360 --> 02:36:00,360 Speaker 4: for them or not. Check out everything Chris has going 3314 02:36:00,600 --> 02:36:03,440 Speaker 4: at Chris Burfette in the Twitter verse Priude of Detroit 3315 02:36:04,040 --> 02:36:06,240 Speaker 4: where you read it and hear the audio of the 3316 02:36:06,280 --> 02:36:09,080 Speaker 4: podcast that they do each and every week as well. 3317 02:36:09,160 --> 02:36:11,080 Speaker 4: He's got a little bit of a blessing because well, 3318 02:36:11,120 --> 02:36:13,039 Speaker 4: he's got a Monday night game, so Sunday he could 3319 02:36:13,120 --> 02:36:13,640 Speaker 4: just watch. 3320 02:36:13,560 --> 02:36:16,480 Speaker 7: Things and where the Tommy DeVito jersey? And where the 3321 02:36:16,520 --> 02:36:18,840 Speaker 7: Tommy Deviti even though they played on even though they 3322 02:36:18,879 --> 02:36:19,240 Speaker 7: played on. 3323 02:36:19,240 --> 02:36:21,720 Speaker 4: There, that's okay. You could still try to channel that 3324 02:36:21,920 --> 02:36:24,640 Speaker 4: energy for me. I've got Bears Rams coming up a 3325 02:36:24,680 --> 02:36:28,840 Speaker 4: little bit later, Bucky Jaguars looking to find that first win. 3326 02:36:29,240 --> 02:36:31,800 Speaker 4: A Houston team that came in with a lot of 3327 02:36:31,879 --> 02:36:34,840 Speaker 4: hype to this point, a bit imperfect. That offensive line 3328 02:36:34,920 --> 02:36:37,680 Speaker 4: looks to be something maybe the Jaguars can exploit. 3329 02:36:40,520 --> 02:36:41,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, you hope. 3330 02:36:41,040 --> 02:36:43,680 Speaker 3: So before you even talk about Houston, you gotta kind 3331 02:36:43,720 --> 02:36:45,400 Speaker 3: of fix your own got to tend to your own 3332 02:36:45,440 --> 02:36:49,160 Speaker 3: knitness coach, as we say, got they gotta work on 3333 02:36:49,480 --> 02:36:52,640 Speaker 3: just being more efficient and effective on their own executing. 3334 02:36:52,680 --> 02:36:54,920 Speaker 3: But I'll say this, the textas are dangerous, and any 3335 02:36:55,000 --> 02:36:56,680 Speaker 3: time a team gets whooped like they got whooped by 3336 02:36:56,680 --> 02:36:59,480 Speaker 3: the Minnesota Vikings, yep, the next game is typically a 3337 02:36:59,560 --> 02:37:02,480 Speaker 3: super wrong response. Now, the good thing, you could say 3338 02:37:02,480 --> 02:37:04,080 Speaker 3: the same thing about the Jaguars and the way they 3339 02:37:04,120 --> 02:37:06,280 Speaker 3: were embarrassed on Monday night. This would be a very 3340 02:37:06,280 --> 02:37:09,840 Speaker 3: competitive game, But look, man, taking the little teal blind 3341 02:37:10,000 --> 02:37:11,960 Speaker 3: is off. The Texans are a really good team. They 3342 02:37:12,040 --> 02:37:14,760 Speaker 3: got talent, good lore on the perimeter. They may be 3343 02:37:14,920 --> 02:37:17,920 Speaker 3: without some of those players, which will help Jacksonville, But 3344 02:37:18,080 --> 02:37:19,720 Speaker 3: until you see the Jacks play better, it's gonna be 3345 02:37:19,760 --> 02:37:21,960 Speaker 3: hard to pick them. The Texans just appear to have 3346 02:37:22,040 --> 02:37:23,840 Speaker 3: a better team and they're playing better, which is why 3347 02:37:23,879 --> 02:37:25,440 Speaker 3: they should be the favorite in this game. 3348 02:37:26,360 --> 02:37:28,600 Speaker 4: Six or six and a half opened at three and 3349 02:37:28,600 --> 02:37:32,119 Speaker 4: a half when the lines were first established. Nico Collins 3350 02:37:32,160 --> 02:37:34,520 Speaker 4: missed a little bit of practice time expected to suit up. 3351 02:37:34,800 --> 02:37:38,160 Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs still trying to figure out his space. Target 3352 02:37:38,280 --> 02:37:44,040 Speaker 4: count is okay, but the yardage and glory touch is 3353 02:37:44,120 --> 02:37:46,480 Speaker 4: not quite there. And then you've got Joe Mixon trying 3354 02:37:46,480 --> 02:37:49,320 Speaker 4: to come back. He was the victim of one of 3355 02:37:49,360 --> 02:37:52,640 Speaker 4: those hip drop tackles in that game against Chicago going 3356 02:37:52,760 --> 02:37:55,280 Speaker 4: back to week two. But outside of the game that 3357 02:37:55,640 --> 02:37:59,160 Speaker 4: you're working on today, Bucky and obviously me living and 3358 02:37:59,280 --> 02:38:02,120 Speaker 4: dying a lot of tweet and show you the video 3359 02:38:02,200 --> 02:38:04,920 Speaker 4: reactions of me perhaps losing my mind during that Bears 3360 02:38:05,000 --> 02:38:07,600 Speaker 4: Rams game. What what's on your radar? What's the game 3361 02:38:07,680 --> 02:38:10,520 Speaker 4: that's most intriguing. I guess Sunday Night football is the 3362 02:38:10,640 --> 02:38:13,360 Speaker 4: obvious one. But beyond that is is there a game 3363 02:38:13,400 --> 02:38:14,520 Speaker 4: that really stands out for you? 3364 02:38:15,240 --> 02:38:15,400 Speaker 1: Well? 3365 02:38:15,480 --> 02:38:17,120 Speaker 3: That is that is the Aviage one. That's the one 3366 02:38:17,160 --> 02:38:20,320 Speaker 3: that you're certainly gonna keep your eyes on, like being 3367 02:38:20,360 --> 02:38:22,560 Speaker 3: able to look at that. But then look, man, that 3368 02:38:23,240 --> 02:38:26,640 Speaker 3: the Packers and Vikings yet been on havn't been on 3369 02:38:27,840 --> 02:38:29,120 Speaker 3: that package out of the rivaly. 3370 02:38:29,160 --> 02:38:31,520 Speaker 1: That is a game that is huge. 3371 02:38:31,640 --> 02:38:33,359 Speaker 4: Are you surprised?
