10
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 2: knows more football than anyone on God's Green Earth. Yes,

11
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: he is my friend, Bucket Brooks. Hello, Buck, how are you?

12
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. What's going on? Andy?

13
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: I got to clear some business up with you, okay.

14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: Number one, Last Sunday, I said I was gonna go

15
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 2: down to the locker room after the game talk to

16
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,599
Speaker 2: coach Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks and tell him

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 2: that Bucky Brooks said you're a genius. I did not

18
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 2: do that because they lost. I just didn't. I don't

19
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 2: think it was the time, so I didn't forget, but

20
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: I didn't do it. Number two, I want to get

21
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: this out of the way now because it irks me.

22
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: You know, I've become a North Carolina Tarheill fan. How

23
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 2: in the hell do they lose to Virginia thirty one

24
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 2: twenty Are you kidding me? You know, on any given

25
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: Saturday they could beat Virginia eleven on ten.

26
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 4: Really, yeah, No, it's a disappointing loss, really disappointing loss

27
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 4: in tar Hill Land.

28
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 3: It's one of those that coach Bryna tried.

29
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 4: To warn the players, like, hey, it's gonna be a

30
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 4: tough game. But sometimes, man, you just can't control what

31
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 4: eighteen to twenty.

32
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 3: Two year olds actually want to do.

33
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 4: And it's a tough loss for them. It's a great

34
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 4: win for Virginia and Tony other all the things they've

35
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: had to deal with. Just disappointed if you're a Tarho.

36
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 2: Fan, Okay, And there's gonna be someone saying, why in

37
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 2: the hell is firm in bringing up North Carolina Virginia?

38
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 2: Because Bucky Brooks is a proud tar Heel grad, that's why. Okay,

39
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: But we move on. And I said, maybe Lake Michigan

40
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: is polluted, and why do I say that? So many

41
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: problems up at the University of Michigan. First at Michigan State,

42
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: melt Tucker gets the acts why he was fired for

43
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: accusations of sexual harassment. Then the football to Michigan. Jim

44
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: Harbaugh gets suspended three games for quote level two, not

45
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: level one, but level two recruiting violations. And now their

46
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 2: analyst in Michigan, Connor Stallions, has been suspended sign stealing

47
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: an operation. Okay, And I got to get this straight

48
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 2: from the horse's mouth, which is Bucky Brooks. There's an

49
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: NCAA bylaw eleven point six point one says off campus

50
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: in person scouting of future opponents in the same season

51
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 2: is prohibited. So that means, Bucky, if I go to

52
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: a game and Michigan is playing XU next week and

53
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 2: I take some video on my phone and send it

54
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: to Jim Harpaugh, that's illegal.

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 3: What does this rule mean, I'm being honest with you,

56
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

57
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 4: Because you ultimately exchange tape with all of the teams

58
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 4: that you play on the schedule, you have access to

59
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 4: all the tape. There's a tape library that you can

60
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 4: access at anytime to begin to scout your opponent. Maybe

61
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: what they're saying is any additional video outside of that.

62
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 4: So years ago when they were Spygate and the Patriots

63
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 4: were caught videotaping the Jets coaches and their signals, and

64
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 4: they got in trouble for that part of it.

65
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 3: You know.

66
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 4: But to me, I'm really saying, this is baffling. To me,

67
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 4: it's baffling because signs steal in trying to skunk the opponent,

68
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 4: trying to figure out what the opponent is, trying to

69
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 4: decipher and break down all of the things. That's always

70
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: been a part of football in high school.

71
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 3: College, pro Yeah, I mean like that part of it.

72
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 3: You know.

73
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 4: One of the reasons why when you look at college

74
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 4: games on Saturdays and you either see the offensive coordinator

75
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 4: defense coordinator covering their mouths or you see all these

76
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 4: placards and signs on the side, is because people alleged

77
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: that people were still in signs. I guess this must

78
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 4: have gone to a higher degree when it comes to

79
00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 4: the level of sophistication that maybe the Wolverines are alleged

80
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 4: to have done. But I mean, it's kind of I

81
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 4: won't to say it's a part of the game, but

82
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 4: it's been a big part of the game and the

83
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 4: culture for a long time.

84
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 2: This is ridiculous. First of all, I'm reading the rule

85
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: to buy law off campus in person scouting. I think

86
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: they should have an attendum to that saying off campus

87
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: in person scouting by personnel of that school. Maybe that

88
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 2: maybe I could understand. But you know, really and truly,

89
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 2: you get an alum who's just a big fan of

90
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: the school taking video and sending it to the coach.

91
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: So I don't know what that means. But I look

92
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,799
Speaker 2: at the scores now of the Michigan football they're rolling

93
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: over opponents. And know they beat Indiana fifty two to seven.

94
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 2: They beat Michigan State forty nine and nothing yesterday. As

95
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: is there a correlation between these videos and the scores

96
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 2: or they're just a great football team.

97
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 4: They're a great football team, regardless of whether you know

98
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 4: what's coming and all that. You got to have the

99
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 4: players to take advantage of any information that you have.

100
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 4: Over the last three years, the Michigan Wolverines have proven

101
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 4: to be one of the better teams in the country.

102
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 4: When you watch them, they play like one of the

103
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 4: better teams. They got it going, and some of this

104
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 4: stuff that we're hearing about them, actually they should take

105
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 4: it as a compliment because you only begin to start

106
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 4: feeling the hate, the hatred.

107
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 3: You only begin to.

108
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 4: Become like a focal point of investigations in those things.

109
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 4: When people know that you're good and they can't believe

110
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 4: that you're doing it clean and we have all this

111
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 4: stuff on it, right, they.

112
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 2: Want to knock you up the pedestal. They really do.

113
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: I'm with you on that, I mean, And I feel

114
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 2: bad for Jim Harby. I like the guy, I really do,

115
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: but you know, sometimes I think he brings it on

116
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: himself at times, the recruiting situation. But you know, this

117
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: is a great football team. I mean, I'm looking at

118
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: the scores throughout the course of the season. I mean,

119
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: they're just not beating opponents. They're humiliating opponents. That's what

120
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,160
Speaker 2: they're doing. And I don't understand why JJ McCarthy their quarterback.

121
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: Oh again, yes, they had a great day two h

122
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,679
Speaker 2: eighty seven yards, four touchdowns, twenty one for twenty seven.

123
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 2: He's not even included in the conversation for Heisman. I

124
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 2: don't get that at all. I really don't.

125
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: Well, A lot of it has to do it the

126
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 4: way that they play. The Michigan Wolverines do not play

127
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 4: a sexy brand of football. If you look at Michigan

128
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 4: versus the where USC plays, the casual fan will prefer

129
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 4: USC because it's exciting and it has a lot of

130
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 4: flash and dash and sizzle and those things. Michigan is

131
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 4: old school. Even though they line up in the shotgun,

132
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 4: they gonna run it. They can run with a bunch

133
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 4: of different runner they can play great defense, and they

134
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 4: just wear you out over time in a very methodical fashion.

135
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 4: That doesn't sell a lot of tickets. You know, unless

136
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 4: you're just a deep blue die hard, you know it

137
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 4: doesn't go. So that's what it has to do with

138
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 4: a lot of it has to do with this team

139
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 4: all of a sudden becoming one of the teams that

140
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 4: you fear like we heard it. People always talked about

141
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 4: stuff with Alabama. People talk about stuff with Georgia. You

142
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 4: heard Mark Stoops talk about Georgia and the best team

143
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 4: that money can buy, etc.

144
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 3: Et cetera, et cetera.

145
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 4: It's part of what I call big football problems. When

146
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 4: you goot football program, you can get some of the

147
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 4: suffer runs.

148
00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: You know, I'm going to open up to you, open

149
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 2: my heart, look at my chest right now, because I'm

150
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 2: gonna bleed to you. Because I trust you and I

151
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 2: love you, I really do, and I'm gonna talk to

152
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: you about this off campus recruiting and taping or whatever

153
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: it may be. Back in the day when Bill Belichick

154
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 2: was coaching the Cleveland Browns and I have a long

155
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: standing I guess correspondence if you will, like a penpower

156
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: relationship with Belichick. He called me up and he asked me,

157
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: can you get me a tape of a Cincinnati Bengal game.

158
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: Was the Browns at the time were getting ready to

159
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: play the Bengals. I went over to a local TV

160
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 2: station got the tape of the game that they asked me,

161
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: what do you need it for? And at the time,

162
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: I had a sports bar in Cincinnati, so I said

163
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: I needed to show on my sports bar TV sets. Okay,

164
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: they gave me the tape. Belichick gave me his FedEx number.

165
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 2: I FedEx the tape overnight to him, and I don't

166
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 2: know if it helped or not. But I don't know

167
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: if that's illegal. You know, to me, the guy's looking

168
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: for an edge. If everybody wants to get an edge

169
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 2: and it's not illegal, what's wrong with it?

170
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the thing. And so the rule is there's

171
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 4: a new discovery for me, and so everyone wants a

172
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 4: level playing field. But some of this when it comes

173
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 4: to signs, stealing and those things, I mean, it's been

174
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 4: embedded in the fabric of the game. Like people alleged

175
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 4: to Indianapolis Colts years ago, for years under Tony Dungey

176
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 4: were one of the best of the visit as stealing signs.

177
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 4: They would get your signals to the point and I

178
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 4: know this because I've talked to defensive coordinators who have

179
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 4: said that what they would do is they would signal

180
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 4: their plays in and they would use wristbands to do it,

181
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 4: so meaning, okay, if I touch my ear, that means

182
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 4: it's played number four on your wristband.

183
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 3: That's what we'll run.

184
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 4: To the point where teams would change the wristbands out

185
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 4: after every quarter because that's how much they feared what

186
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 4: the Colts did when it came to stealing signs and

187
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 4: doing those things.

188
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: So when these.

189
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 4: Allegations and stuff come up, a lot of people are

190
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 4: going to think about the Patriots and Spygate and those things,

191
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 4: And all I can tell you is this has been

192
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 4: a part of football for a long time.

193
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 3: People are always trying to find again in it's not

194
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 3: a good way. Absolutely, So we.

195
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,599
Speaker 2: Talked about Michigan and what they've done, and they have

196
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 2: a great season. They're undefeated, and it kind of was

197
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 2: a preview of the Game of the Century because Ohio

198
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: State played Penn State yesterday. Ohio State beats them up

199
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: at twenty to twelve. So now we're going to look

200
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: forward to this Michigan Ohio State game as we usually

201
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 2: do every year. And I ask you, Bucky Brooks, how

202
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: good is this Ohio State team? Well? More better than that,

203
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 2: how good is Marvin Harrison Junior? Because he got to

204
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 2: be perhaps maybe the best football player in the country.

205
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 4: I mean, he's an outstanding football player. Having watched him

206
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 4: since he was in high school, it's really amazing that

207
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: he is the son of Marvin Harrison, the Hall of

208
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 4: Fame wide receiver, because their body type and structured nothing alike.

209
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 4: He's a bigger, thicker, stronger version of his dad. Their

210
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 4: playing styles are completely different, but he's as policy as

211
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: they come at position, and Ohio State has a pretty

212
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 4: pedestrian offense. Without him and his partners on the perimeter,

213
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 4: they kind of have to wear you down just because

214
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 4: of the quarterback. Calt mc Cord is not what they've

215
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 4: had in the past. He's not CJ. Stroud, He's not

216
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 4: justin fields, he's not Dwayne Haskins. So this team operates

217
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 4: a little differently. They what I call a very good team.

218
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 4: I don't know if they're a great team, though, and

219
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 4: so it'd be interesting to see when they match up

220
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 4: against Michigan again, how the Wolverines deal with them, how

221
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 4: the Buckeyes handle the Wolverines physicality and toughness, and what

222
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 4: is the end result, because two years in a row

223
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 4: going to Michigan has been a bit of a surprise.

224
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 4: If they go to three year then it becomes a

225
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 4: level of dominance.

226
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. And speaking of Lovin Harrison Jr.

227
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: Yesterday in that game, one hundred and sixty two yards

228
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: and eleven receptions and a touchdown, And honestly, you took

229
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: at the Michigan's in the Ohio States, I just think

230
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 2: maybe I'm mistaken, But looking at these and I don't

231
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 2: follow them that closely, I think Michigan is more balanced

232
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 2: on both sides of the football than Ohio State.

233
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I think they're a better team. Still got to

234
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 4: play better when they match up. I think They're a

235
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 4: much better team. This Michigan team, to me, is built

236
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 4: to go toe to toe with whoever you want to

237
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 4: put in the final four, Georgia, Florida State, any of

238
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 4: those teams.

239
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 3: This team can go toe to toe with them and

240
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 3: they won't blink.

241
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 4: Their physicality, their toughness, their depth from top to bottom,

242
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 4: they have it all. They have a head coach who

243
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 4: knows how to win these games from a tactical standpoint

244
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 4: and also being an inspiring motivated team.

245
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 3: He has all those things. This team is good. I mean,

246
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: this team is.

247
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 2: This team is loaded, right and I'll tell you what

248
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 2: they Everybody thought USC would be loaded, and I think

249
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: their Achilles heel, as we knew early on, was their defense.

250
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 2: They got smacked around a week ago by Notre Dame

251
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 2: forty eight twenty and yesterday Utah shocked them. I mean

252
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 2: it was a great game. It really was, thirty four

253
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: to thirty two, and Bryce and Barnes basically the back

254
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 2: of the Utes outplayed the Heisman Trophy. I guess winner

255
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 2: of a year ago. He's not going to win it now.

256
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams. Williams can only watch and meyer what basically

257
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 2: Bryson Barnes was doing. At the end of the ball game,

258
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 2: Cole Becker made a thirty eight yard field goal as

259
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: a clockhead, oh and Utah fourteenth Frank Utah. They blew

260
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: an eleven point lead in the fourth quarter and they

261
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 2: came back to win thirty four to thirty two over USC,

262
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: which is their second loss of the year, which means

263
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: bye bye. You'll be watching the playoffs on TV with

264
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 2: me and you.

265
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, they're done, but we knew they were

266
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 3: gonna be done.

267
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 4: For USC to be one of the teams that we

268
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 4: talked about being a Final four team, they are going

269
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 4: to have to change their style, not necessarily in terms

270
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 4: of whether they run it or through it, but they

271
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 4: have to be a much more physical team. Physicality and

272
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 4: toughness has to be the calling court. When you look

273
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 4: at the top teams, that's kind of how they get

274
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 4: down Georgia.

275
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 3: They played that style.

276
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 4: You've seen Alabama Creek back into the playoff conversation and

277
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 4: based on their ability to clean up their offense and

278
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 4: to play kind.

279
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 3: Of big boy football.

280
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 4: You look at some of those other teams and really

281
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 4: in the pact where Utah has been a team that

282
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 4: plays big boy football, where it's about toughness and physicality

283
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 4: and wearing you down down after down. The Trojans don't

284
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 4: play like that, and so it's not a coincidence that

285
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 4: Utah has beating them three straight games and kind of

286
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 4: has a lock on the conference against everybody because their

287
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 4: physicality and toughness shows up every time you watch them play.

288
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 2: Okay, I got a beef, and you're gonna help me

289
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 2: with the answer to this question. Okay, you know I

290
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 2: live in the Cincinnati mark. I live honestly in Kentucky,

291
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 2: about fifteen miles south of Cincinnati. So in Cincinnati, I

292
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: like the Bengals. I follow the Bengals. I follow University

293
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati football, and they've been very successful the last

294
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: couple of years. Luke Fickle did a great job. Now

295
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 2: he is at Wisconsin. He left, so they bring in

296
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 2: the sad of Field from Louisville and now they've dropped

297
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: five straight games at two and five. What bothers me

298
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: is that I don't live and die with the team.

299
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: But the fact is, if they're not doing well, you

300
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 2: can't see them on TV. So they played Baylor yesterday

301
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 2: and it was not on TV. It was on an

302
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 2: ESPN Plus and I ain't paying for it. I'm not

303
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: paying to watch Baylor Cincinnati on TV when there's so

304
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 2: many other good games on TV. But my question is this.

305
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: You lose five games in a row, and I'm saying, like,

306
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 2: could this coach be on the hot seat? Satisfield? And

307
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 2: you know, I didn't mention it to anybody but you,

308
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: and people would say I'm crazy, But I don't think so,

309
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 2: because I think right now, with the advent of the portal,

310
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: you would. You don't need time to rebuild. Look what

311
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 2: USC did when he left Oklahoma to go to the USC.

312
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 2: I just don't think you need time to I think

313
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: that you're two and five. I get it, you left

314
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: the AAC to go to the Big twelve and it's

315
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 2: gonna be a TimewARP situation. But I just think that

316
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 2: there's no time like the present. What I mean is,

317
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: if you got the portal, you could rebuild in a season.

318
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: Look what Colorado did, so why can't Cincinnati do it?

319
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 2: Just a question I throw out to you, Bucky Brooks.

320
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 4: A tough job, big expectations, huge jump from the AAC

321
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 4: to the Big twelve. What you have to realize and

322
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 4: even with the portal, and I don't know what the

323
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 4: University of Cincinnati wants to do regarding the port in

324
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 4: terms of are they let all transfers in. Do they

325
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 4: want to be a team that's a little more homegrown

326
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 4: and develop I know that worked well for Luke Fickle

327
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 4: when he was.

328
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 3: The head coach.

329
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: But regardless, it's going to take some time to begin

330
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 4: to assimilate to a completely different conference. The way that

331
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 4: they played in the AAC. It may have to change

332
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 4: because the Big Twelve is all about spread up tempo

333
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: scoring points, and you have to have a team that

334
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 4: can match the first go round. It is tough because

335
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 4: there's not a familiarity with the opponents that are on

336
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 4: your schedule. As they settle in, as they hunker down,

337
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 4: they'll get better in terms of competing with those teams.

338
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 3: Satafire should not be on the high seat.

339
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 4: He knows and he should understand that he have to

340
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 4: win because everyone who has won has been through Cincinnati

341
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 4: the last few years, they've won, and they've won big.

342
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 3: He has to win big. He knows, that's the expectation.

343
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 2: You don't think he's feeling a little we you see,

344
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: like why he left Louisville and looking Louisville's doing this year.

345
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 4: Ah, I mean maybe like but at the same time, like,

346
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 4: what was that situation like for him at Louisville? Was

347
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 4: he one foot in the grave another foot on the

348
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 4: banana peel and he would have been facing that?

349
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 3: And did he leave for security?

350
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: You know, the comfort of a four or five year

351
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 4: deal knowing that, Okay, that buys me at least three

352
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 4: more years to be able to do what I love

353
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 4: as a head coach and those things.

354
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 3: And you know how big was the pay raise? Did

355
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 3: he got? All those things factor into it?

356
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 2: You, executive, It's all about the money. That's It's all

383
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 2: Sunday at Fox Sports Radio and Buckle. We'll go put

384
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: the calend the back a little bit. Let's go back

385
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: to Thursday night NFL football, the Jags over the Saints

386
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 2: thirty one to twenty four. But I want to talk

387
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 2: about Trevor Lawrence, the quarterback there, and he was twenty

388
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 2: for twenty nine two hundred four yards a touchdown, and

389
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: the Jags right now have their best start since nine

390
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 2: since what twenty oh seven when they were five and

391
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 2: two and they won big. They won thirty one twenty

392
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: four is mentioned. And the question I have here and

393
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 2: you would know better than anyone, is that Trevor Lawrence

394
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 2: obviously going up to scale. His graph is shooting upwards.

395
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 2: He's getting a little better bit by bit. But how

396
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: much of a difference is it making with Doug Peterson

397
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: as the coach from an Urban Meyer as a coach,

398
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 2: how much has the coaching helped him develop as a

399
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 2: better quarterback?

400
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 4: I would say the coaching has been everything, because Doug

401
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 4: Peterson has done a really good job of making the

402
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 4: game simple for Trevor. Trevor's a talented quarterback. Let me

403
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 4: first get that out there. Arm talent, athleticism, great leader,

404
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 4: great with the locker room in terms of the players.

405
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 4: But Doug Peterson has taken Trevor where he was when

406
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 4: he got him under Urban Meyer, and he taught him

407
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 4: how to play the NFL way in terms of understanding situation,

408
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 4: understanding what's necessary in certain moments, and he has done

409
00:18:59,960 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 4: a really good job of cleaning the picture or clearing

410
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 4: the picture up for Trevor Lawrence as a player, meaning

411
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 4: he keeps the schemes simple for the quarterback, complex for

412
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 4: the defense, so they may run the same concept. So

413
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 4: if you can imagine, Okay, we're gonn run a shallow

414
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 4: crosser at five yards, we're gonna run a big square

415
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 4: ind at twelve.

416
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 3: Yards, and we've got a big post over top.

417
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 4: And what they'll do is they'll change how they get

418
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 4: to that concept with motions, with shifts, with personnel groupings.

419
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: But for the quarterback, the read is always the same.

420
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 4: And the more that you can kind of do things

421
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 4: that are complex for the defense to figure out, but

422
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 4: easy for the quarterback to just kind of I'm gonna

423
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 4: sit back and do the same thing that I've always done.

424
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 3: It allows your quarterback.

425
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 4: To have success, It allows him to be a consistent player,

426
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 4: it allows him to be efficient.

427
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 3: And you're seeing all those things from the Jaguars offense.

428
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,959
Speaker 2: And the reason I bring this up is because I

429
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 2: want to go back and look at Denver whuch when

430
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 2: I thought when they brought in Sean Payton as head coach,

431
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 2: we'd see the re birth of Russell Wilson and we

432
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 2: really haven't.

433
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 3: No, we haven't.

434
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 4: We haven't seen all of that, and that's been a

435
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 4: little bit of a surprise. You thought we would see

436
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 4: some of that stuff. We thought that we would see

437
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 4: Russell and Sean Payton figured out. But they haven't been

438
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 4: able to figure it out. And that's that's the problem.

439
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 4: That's a bit of an issue because it just makes

440
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 4: life so much.

441
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 3: Difficult.

442
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 4: You know, for the Broncos, when the quarterback isn't playing well,

443
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 4: you can't run the football, you can't throw the football.

444
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 4: He no longer is mobile enough to make your poor

445
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 4: play calls correct with his athleticism. And you know, I

446
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 4: worried about this being faulty from the start because what

447
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 4: what Sean Payton had when he had Drew Brees was

448
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 4: a quick rhythm passer meaning balwood snap to the quarterback,

449
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 4: catch throw bang balls delivered on time to the wide receiver.

450
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 4: Russell Wilson at his best is a guy who is

451
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 4: a player action deep ball thrower who you know, he

452
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 4: doesn't throw in rhythm. He waits, he scrambles around, he's

453
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 4: off the cuff, he's unscripted. Hard to build an offense

454
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 4: around that player. The reason why I worked for so

455
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 4: long in Seattle is because they had a dominant run game.

456
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 4: And when you have a dominant running game, the company

457
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 4: plays that you put with that are bootlegs, movement passes,

458
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 4: deep play action where you can take a seven step

459
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 4: drop and push it down the field. Sean Payton's offense

460
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 4: doesn't operate like that, and Russell Wilson's having a tough

461
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 4: time adapting all right.

462
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 2: Speaking of quarterbacks to Chicago, Bears are hosting the Raiders

463
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 2: today in Chicago. Obviously, Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields. He's

464
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: been ruled out for today's game against those Raiders because

465
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 2: of a dissocated thumb. So what do they got? First

466
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 2: time starter in the NFL, Rookie Tyson Baygent. Tyson Baygent. Okay,

467
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 2: the guy went through a Division two school, Shepherd University

468
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 2: in West Virginia, and by the way, I following this kid,

469
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 2: he holds the all time collegiate record for touchdowns thrown

470
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty nine touchdowns during his collegiate career.

471
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 2: But it's not going to do any good today because

472
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 2: the Raiders will be beating up on the Bears. The

473
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 2: Bears one in five, they'll be one and six. They

474
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 2: just don't have the talent. I mean, obviously both teams

475
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: are they're going nowhere, but the Bears are going even faster.

476
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Bears are having a tough time television. But

477
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 4: now I will say this basically coming from a small

478
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 4: school shepherd, he said to all time records passing, total touchdowns,

479
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 4: passing yards. He's an NCAA record holder and also Division

480
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 4: two record holder and a bunch of different categories when

481
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 4: it comes to that. So you don't want to think

482
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 4: and assume that he's a slouch and given a full

483
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 4: week of preparation. National Football League is funny guys who

484
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 4: are talented. They can make plays. So you got to

485
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 4: give him his proper respect. But you know you would

486
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 4: anticipate this being a tough one for the Bears. Ricky

487
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 4: quarterback limitations on our offense has been great already, but

488
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 4: who knows.

489
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 3: Man, we wrote the ball out then and see what

490
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 3: he looked like.

491
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 2: You know, I was looking at some tape of this kid.

492
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: Not that it means anything, because the next game I

493
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 2: coach would be my first, so it doesn't mean anything. However,

494
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 2: he was in a preseason game and he underthrew one

495
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 2: of his receivers, and one of the media people after

496
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,199
Speaker 2: the game said, oh, you know, underthrowing a receiver, is

497
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 2: it the pressure? And he gave a great answer. I

498
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 2: mean it sounded like a fifth year pro. He says, no,

499
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 2: I just underthrew the guy. I mean it was it

500
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 2: was great. I mean I think the media person wanted

501
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 2: at the crack and say, yeah, NFL pressure and I

502
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 2: used to be coming from the D two school. I

503
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,360
Speaker 2: just love that answer. So I think this kid has

504
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 2: the mentality to play. I don't know if he's got

505
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 2: the physical ability, especially the team are surrounding him in Chicago,

506
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 2: But I think he's gonna make it. I really do.

507
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 3: Mmm, you think he's gonna make it?

508
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 2: Well, I think he's gonna stick. When I say make it,

509
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 2: He's not gonna be a franchise quarterback. But I think

510
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 2: he's gonna stay and stick on the roster. That's what

511
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 2: I say he'll make.

512
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 4: I can see that. Yeah, I think he can do that.

513
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 4: I think I think that's a reasonable expectation. And you know,

514
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 4: like people come in with certain you know, sellings that

515
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 4: you have on them, and it is one of the things.

516
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 3: I think he certainly is good enough. But we'll see.

517
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 4: Well, you know, preseason games are so much different in

518
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 4: regular season games in terms of the speed and the

519
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 4: athleticism and those things and the decisions that you have

520
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 4: to make. But it'd be interesting to see what this

521
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 4: looks like for him.

522
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 2: Okay, And so some good news for the Raiders if

523
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: you're a Raider fan, and there's plenty of them. Last

524
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: week the Raiders beat up on the Patriots twenty one

525
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 2: to seventeen. That was their five hundredth old time win

526
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 2: in regular season. I don't know who's counting that, but

527
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 2: it's a pretty good deal. So there we go on

528
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 2: that Bucky brooks Andy Furman together Fox Sports Sunday, making

529
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday of Fox Sports Ready. And by the way,

530
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 2: an explosive element is missing from this team's offense. That's

531
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 2: coming up next live for the tiraq dot Com studios.

532
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: But first live himself Kevin Wyatt with all your sports.

533
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 5: Yes, we got some injury updates for you for this

534
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 5: week's slate of games. I with a couple saying that

535
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 5: Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf is a game time decision.

536
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 5: He's listened as questionable and with a hip and rib injury,

537
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 5: and yes, he is considered a game time decision. They

538
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 5: do want to work him out before the game to

539
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 5: see if he can go. Same for Chargers safety Derwin James.

540
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 5: He hurt his ankle on Thursday, did not participate on Friday,

541
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 5: and they're gonna work him out pregame and decide then

542
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 5: whether or not he can play. Adam Schefter saying that

543
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 5: the Rams Rams plan to use Royce Freeman and Darryl

544
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 5: Henderson primarily against the Steelers as a Kyron Williams getting

545
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 5: a place on injured reserves, so those two guys are

546
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 5: going to fill in for him. Lion's running back Craig

547
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 5: Reynolds listed as questionable for Sunday due to hamstring and

548
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 5: to injury. He is expected to play against the Ravens.

549
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 5: Browns running back Kareem Hunt due to a strained thigh.

550
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 5: He is questionable. He's gonna be tested in pregame warmups

551
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 5: and determined and it will be determined if he can

552
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 5: play depending on how that goes. Cleveland does have concern

553
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 5: though about his availability. Packers running back Aaron Jones listen

554
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 5: to this questionable for Sunday due to a hamstring injury.

555
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,480

00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 5: fourth quarter the only touchdown Washington would get, but they

560

581
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 2: in this series that's coming up next on Fox Live

582
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 2: from the Tyraq dot com studios. He's Bucky Brooks, I'm

583
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 2: Andy Ferman and by the way, ask Brucky in about

584
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 2: seven eight minutes from now. Now, Brown's CU is a

585
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 2: pretty good game, at least on paper. We'll see who plays.

586
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 2: Because of the injury factors, the Colts are missing the

587
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 2: injured quarterback Anthony Richardson. He's gonna be gone for the year.

588

Speaker 2: nine is nineteen seventeen all defense in that game, twenty

590

Speaker 2: five total penalties. And Bucky Brooks, you right for NFL

591
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 2: dot com and I love reading you every single week.

592
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 2: And you said Cleveland's d Rocks tell me about the

593
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns defense.

594
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 3: Just really good.

595
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 4: Jim Schwartz has done a great job getting the Cleveland

596
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 4: Brown's defense to play at a high level.

597
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 3: And you know, this is a.

598
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 4: Team and the Browns are a team that has always

599
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 4: been lauded for their roster and what they've had available.

600
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 4: But Jim Schwartz has found a way to kind of

601
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 4: find bring a scheme that matches the talent. And one

602
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 4: of the things that he does, and it's one of

603
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 4: those things that is simple to I mean, look, it's

604
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 4: simple to discuss but hard to pull off, is he

605
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 4: tries to create favorable matchups for his best players. The

606
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 4: Browns are a team that in the secondary, they play

607
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 4: a lot of Manda Man. So you know you have

608
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 4: Greg Newsom and Denzel Ward and company. They're out there

609
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 4: locking up playing Manda Man on the perimeter. Up front

610
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 4: with Zadarius Smith and Miles Garrett. You know, they come

611
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 4: after you. They're in attack mode. They're they're hunting the

612
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 4: quarterback at every turn. He has given them the freedom

613
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 4: to kind of move around up front on obvious passing now,

614
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 4: so they can kind of find what we call them pros.

615
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 4: The fish who's the vulnerable guy that you can we're out.

616
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 3: And so Miles Garrett has done that.

617
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 4: We've seen him execute these basketball crossovers as he's coming

618
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 4: to the line. He just makes life miserable for quarterbacks.

619
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 4: This defense plays faster together, they're free flowing, and because

620
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 4: of their defense, the Cleveland Browns have a chance to

621
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 4: be in the conversation as a title contender. With or

622
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 4: without their quarterback playing get a high level and also

623
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 4: with Nick Chubb's sideline for the year, this team can

624
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 4: still make a run because their defense is that good.

625
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this, Look, I know Jim Schwartz is

626
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 2: getting praise, you're praise. I know he's doing a good job.

627
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: But I would say that Garrett and Smith have made

628
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 2: Schwartz more than Schwartz making those guys because I remember

629
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 2: when Schwartz is the decoordinator in the Lions and they

630
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 2: couldn't stop anybody. So we always say it's still about personnel. Now, look,

631
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 2: he's got the schemes, but he's got the personnel to

632
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 2: get those schemes done. That's what it's all about.

633
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 4: Well that's all I mean, It's always about players. I mean,

634
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 4: like there's not a great code who hasn't done it

635
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 4: with great players like Vince Lombardi's in the Hall of

636
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 4: Fame because they had a bunch of Hall of Fame

637
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 4: players playing with them. So we can't romanticize the notion

638
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 4: that the coach can do it with anything. But I

639
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 4: will say this, his style of play and what they

640
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 4: emphasize and what they want to do schematically works with

641
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 4: the personnel that he's had, and we've seen them before

642
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 4: because when he was with the Tennessee Titans, he had

643
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 4: a defense playing at a high level. He won a

644
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 4: Super Bowl with the Philadelphia Eagles as defensive coordinator with

645
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 4: Doug Peterson, So he has a track record. I won't

646
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 4: dismiss him like you was dismissive of him. Think his

647
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 4: I think his coaching pedigree is well worth being discussed

648
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 4: and lauded.

649
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 2: There we go, Okay, and the coach they got to

650
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 2: protect Gardan Minshew Benches coming off a four turn of

651
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 2: a game thirty seven to twenty loss at Jacksonville last week.

652
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 2: So I gotta believe even though the Browns may be

653
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 2: missing Hunt, the Browns may be missing their starting quarterback

654
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 2: and going with a backup, I still think that the

655
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 2: Browns win this game, and maybe closer than we think,

656
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 2: but the Browns still well, I think will probably be

657
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 2: the team to beat in the AFC North, which, by

658
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: the way, every team in that division has at least

659
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 2: three wins, the only division that could boast that.

660
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, a tough division. But I kind of get you.

661
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 4: I don't think this game would be as close as

662
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 4: you're indicating now that the book is that on going

663
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 4: to minch you and everyone knows he's the starter. That's

664
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 4: when life becomes That's when it becomes tough on him.

665
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 4: When he comes off the bench and he's kind of

666
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 4: like the spark plug. That is completely different. In opposite

667
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 4: of Anthony Richardson. He can have successful when everyone knows

668
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 4: that he's the guy. Yeah, it's a different it's a

669
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 4: different ussehole.

670
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And this story right now that I'm going to

671
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 2: tell you is a sad one. The Buffalo Bills are

672
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 2: playing at the Patriots, and I said coming up to

673
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: the segment, the trend won't change because the Patriots have

674
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: lost four games against the Bills and it's going to

675
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 2: continue today. But you know, anytime you see a star

676
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 2: that was shining and it's kind of dimming right now.

677
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 2: It bothers me in the world of sports. The Patriots

678
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 2: have now lost three straight, that one in five. Last

679
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: week they lost at Vegas twenty one seventeen. They scored

680
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 2: their first touchdown in twelve quarters, and if you're not

681
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 2: that good in mathematics, that equals three games the first

682
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 2: touchdown three games. It is unbelievable what they're doing turnovers.

683
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 2: And Bill Belichick's teams are not really turnover teams, but

684
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 2: turnovers are killing the Patriots. Mac Jones seven interceptions. Why

685
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,479
Speaker 2: they're staying with him is beyond me. I think I

686
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,479
Speaker 2: read somewhere earlier in the week that Belichick's giving him

687
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: a short leash today. But I can't see the Patriots

688
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 2: beating the Bills today. Can't see it. I wish they would.

689
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 4: Now, you never you never know. They've had a tough

690
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 4: time dealing with them. On paper, this looks like a

691
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 4: very lopsided matchup.

692
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: You just don't know.

693
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 4: Like we can talk about coaching, we just had a

694
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 4: long little conversation back and forth about Jim Schwartz. But

695
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick, who Jims Force learned a lot under, he

696
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 4: can muddy up the game and he'll do the best

697
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 4: that he can with the personnel that he has to

698
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 4: mess up the game and to make it a fourth

699
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 4: quarter fair and if you can get you know, the

700
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 4: Bill into the deep water, as we like to say,

701
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 4: Yeah they can pull it off. But this is just

702
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 4: gonna be such a hard one for them. They just

703
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 4: don't have the person on the matchup.

704
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 2: This could be ugly. I mean really and truly they

705
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: may not score a touchdown today. It could be a

706
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: real ugly game. And I just I you know what,

707
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe people don't think I have a heart, but

708
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 2: I do. I feel for Bill Belichick. I can imagine

709
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 2: he's up at night figuring out what's what's wrong? And

710
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 2: they bring in the offensive coordinator. O'Brien, he's done worse

711
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 2: than their defensive turn offensive coordinator? Did think about that

712
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: he's been doing the job? Is worse? There resultso worse

713
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 2: this year?

714
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it hasn't. It hasn't been good. It's

715
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 4: problematic if you're a Patriots fan.

716
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 3: It just doesn't. It's just not a good look, not

717
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 3: a great look for them. It really is.

718
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 2: Now the question I asked you a million dollar question,

719
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 2: you know, could Bill Belichick get the acts? I mean

720
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: I can't. I just I know Vince Lombardi did. And

721
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 2: I remember when Lombardy got the Asks and he went

722
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 2: to Washington and he got to the playoffs. So I

723
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 2: mean a tremendous coach, There's no doubt about that. I

724
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 2: still think that A. Belichick wants to break the all

725
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 2: time win record by Don Shula. That's number one. He

726
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 2: wants to stay until he can break that. And number two,

727
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 2: I think if he does get the acts or he's

728
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 2: forced to resign, someone will pick him up. There's no

729
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 2: doubt in my mind someone will.

730
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I completely believe that.

731
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 4: Like, imagine Bill Belichick coaching the Los Angeles Charges if

732
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 4: that opened up, Imagine what he could do with the

733
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 4: talent that we'd have at at his disposal. There would

734
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 4: be plenty of open jobs. And I've compared this in

735
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: one of the pieces that I've written in the past.

736
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 4: This is similar to the Andy Reid reset in Philadelphia,

737
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 4: when the Eagles decided a his voice is still we need.

738
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 3: To move on. They let him go.

739
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 4: He goes to Kansas City and immediately builds a dominant

740
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 4: power because he got different talent, different voice, new voices.

741
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 4: Their receptive to the coaching and it worked. Maybe the

742
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 4: same thing for Bill Belichick. He leaves there go somewhere

743
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 4: else as a mini amount of success because he can

744
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 4: re establish his way in the locker room.

745
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,160

00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 2: I know you are. You're always ready.

784
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 3: I am ready, I am ready for all Right, here we.

785
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 2: Go, Here we go. With the trade deadline coming up,

786
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you the form of pro and scout

787
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks these possibilities and see what you have to say.

788
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 2: I say the Bears trade quarterback Justin Fields to the Falcons.

789
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 2: Why do I say that? The Bears are tracking now

790
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 2: towards a number one pick in the draft, either with

791
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: their own selection or maybe from the Panthers. And I

792
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 2: don't think Arthur Smith is real happy with Desmond Ritter

793
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 2: in Atlanta.

794
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 3: M I don't see them making a major move like that.

795
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 4: Like I see them kind of stand status quot until

796
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,359
Speaker 4: they can get to the draft. I don't think a

797
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 4: move in the middle of the season will give them

798
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 4: what they want. So yeah, I think they stay. I

799
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 4: think they stand.

800
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 2: Pat Okay, I'm gonna write that down. We'll see after

801
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 2: the trade deadline. Now here's a long shot. I say

802
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 2: the Vikings trade quarterback Kirk Cousins to the Jets. But

803
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 2: Cousins does have a no trade clause in his contract,

804
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 2: so I say it is a long shot, and he's

805
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,439
Speaker 2: on an expiring contract. And really and truly that Justin

806
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 2: Jefferson is gone, maybe the Vikes say, look, let's just

807
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 2: clean the slate and soud new.

808
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 4: Like even now, I think I think the trade deadline

809
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 4: is going to be reserved for just like getting off

810
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 4: spare ports. I don't think you can see anybody major

811
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 4: traded right out the gate. So no, I don't think

812
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:20,479
Speaker 4: this happens either.

813
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 2: All right, last, but not least, see the Broncos trade

814
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 2: their wide receiver Jerry Judy to the Panthers. The Panthers

815
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 2: need to get Bryce Young some help, especially at receiver,

816
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 2: and time really isn't on the Broncos side right now,

817
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 2: and Judy doesn't have the trade value they've been seeing,

818
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 2: so he's on the books. I think it's on like

819
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 2: twelve thirteen million dollars for his fifth year option in

820
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. I think he might go.

821
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 4: And now that I can believe because he's a complimentary repeat,

822
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 4: so I'm fine with him going.

823
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 3: I think he can go.

824
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 4: That's not an issue because also wide receivers can kind

825
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 4: of pick up a system quickly when they go to

826
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 4: a new team.

827
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, Jerry Judy's definitely on the move.

828
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 2: There we go, Okay, I like that, Now what coach

829
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 2: could be on the move before the end of the season.

830
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 2: What coach could get the sack? Maybe, I'm thinking Carolina,

831
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 2: they had already made a situation with coordinators where the

832
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: head coach has relinquished his calling to the assistant to

833
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 2: the defense, to the offensive coordinator. Does that mean he

834
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 2: has one foot in the grave?

835
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 3: Uh? Pretty much? I think so.

836
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 4: I think Frank when Frank gives up, when he gave

837
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 4: up play calling duties, to me, that was like, wow,

838
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 4: that was kind of like a woe moment, Like what

839
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 4: are we doing. We're just six games into the tenure.

840
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 4: You're already putting it on Thomas Brown. The conversation that

841
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 4: he's having where he's kind of pointed to David Tepper

842
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 4: being the guy that wanted Bryce Young as opposed to

843
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 4: maybe some of the coaches. There's just a lot of

844
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 4: stuff coming out of that that leads you to believe

845
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 4: that he is one and done in Carolina.

846
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 2: Okay, now you're pretty close to the situation, you're mister NFL.

847
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 2: Did Frank Reich make this call on his own or

848
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 2: was he forced from the front the office or ownership

849
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 2: temper to say, look, I'm giving this up.

850
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 3: It might have been an ownership call. It may have been.

851
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 4: It may have been an ownership decision because the owner

852
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 4: may have been, like, who really loves Bryce Young, I'm

853
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 4: gonna put you in charge of getting Bryce Young up

854
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 4: and going. Maybe Frank is not doing the best job

855
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 4: of getting him up to snuff because he doesn't really

856
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 4: believe in his upside and his potential.

857
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 2: All right, now that the positive. Now you're early Coach

858
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: of the Year candidates.

859
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 4: M Early Coach of the Year candidate has to be

860
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 4: Dan Campbell. Dan Campbell by himself, the fact that the

861
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 4: Detroit Lions are a Super Bowl contender. They have become

862
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 4: one of the bullies in the league. Yeah, to me,

863
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,919
Speaker 4: that's what it's all about. I think I think they're

864
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 4: they're they're good to go. I think he will get

865
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 4: a lot of accolades as they continue to win.

866
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 2: What about hours own everybody said they'd be the worst

867
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 2: team in the league.

868
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they're not winning enough for him to be there.

869
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 2: You go, and maybe early MVP.

Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks, I ask you this. It is hard to believe.

883
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 2: We are now in Week seven of the National Football

884
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 2: League and I'm looking at the standings and is there

885
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 2: anything that pops out and says, wow, I can't believe that.

886
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 2: I'm looking at Jacksonville at five and two, Denver at

887
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,839
Speaker 2: one in five, a couple of other things that kind

888
00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 2: of crossed my mind. I'm not not happy with my

889
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 2: Patriots one in five, that Bill Belichick is suffering like that,

890
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 2: but even the Dolphins at five and one, and of

891
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 2: course everybody's sweetheart right now, I guess the Detroit Lions

892
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,800
Speaker 2: at five and one. Any other surprises that you see.

893
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 2: I guess maybe the fact that Carolina hasn't even won

894
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 2: a game yet their own six.

895
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

896
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 4: I think that's a big surprise because many of us

897
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 4: thought that the Panthers would be able to come and

898
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 4: compete right away, that Bryce Young would be able to

899
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 4: kind of give them the Ben Roethlisberger fate when Roethlisberger

900
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 4: led Pittsburgh to an outstanding record his rookie season. Kind

901
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 4: of thought Bryce Young would do that, even though the

902
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 4: pieces weren't all the way perfect around him. Just had

903
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 4: this sense that with his maturity in the coaching staff

904
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 4: and all the quarteric whisperers and tacticians and schemers they

905
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 4: had on that team, the coaching staff, you thought that

906
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,720
Speaker 4: the product would be much better than we've.

907
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 2: Seen, right, and the quarterbacks that came into the league

908
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 2: this year, Bryce Young was touted as to be maybe

909
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 2: the number one guy, and he's having some difficulty. Obviously,

910
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 2: to be fair, the people around in the personnel is

911
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,479
Speaker 2: not that strong. But he is having a tough time

912
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 2: of it.

913
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's difficult.

914
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 4: The life and adjusting to the National Football League is tough,

915
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 4: and it's only going to be tougher as you continue

916
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 4: to grow in the sand and as they expect more

917
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 4: from you. Yeah, you got to be able to kind

918
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 4: of lift up your teammates, elevate them. But before you

919
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 4: can even think about that, he has to take care

920
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 4: of the little things and just focus on the things

921
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 4: that he can control. And if he does those things,

922
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 4: eventually the on field product could take care of.

923
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 2: So let me ask you a personal question, and most

924
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 2: of the questions I ask you are personal. But how

925
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 2: was it when you graduated in North Carolina and went

926
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 2: to the pros? What was it like? I mean, were

927
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 2: you in awe? Were these guys that much better? Were

928
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 2: they that much bigger and faster? How difficult was it

929
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 2: for you to adapt?

930
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 4: It takes a while, but I think what happens is

931
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 4: everyone has an Aha moment, and it can have differently

932
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 4: where you can feel like you belong. For me, it

933
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 4: happened early in training camp. It happened maybe the second

934
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 4: preseason game. I was able to score a touchdown and

935
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 4: that's when I was like, Okay, yeah, I can play

936
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 4: up here.

937
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:13,320
Speaker 3: I can play with these guys.

938
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 4: Everybody goes through it at different stages, but a lot

939
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 4: of it has to do with your preparation, how quickly

940
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 4: you understand the game, plan, then the playbook and what

941
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,399
Speaker 4: you're being asked to do. And the last thing is man,

942
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 4: your effort and your attitude. You got to play fast,

943
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 4: you got to be fearless, and you got to be

944
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,319
Speaker 4: willing to do it like you have to know what

945
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 4: to do every time.

946
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 2: Right, And one of these guys who doesn't really know

947
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 2: what to do as of yet, I have to say

948
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,720
Speaker 2: is Desmond Ridder, the quarterback and the Falcons. The Falcons

949
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 2: are at the Bucks today. Last week, the Falcons lost

950
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 2: to Washington twenty four to sixteen, and that defeat was

951
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 2: the first for Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder on his home

952
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 2: field since he was in high school. That was a

953
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 2: streak of thirty one consecutive games because contain the University

954
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,480
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati and of course the Atlanta Falcons. Tampa's defense

955
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 2: is getting takeaways to have eighteen interceptions. The Falcons offense,

956
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 2: We've said this before and it hasn't changed. It's one dimensional.

957
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 2: They run the football, that's basically all they do. And

958
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 2: Tampa's gonna shut them down today. And let's talk about

959
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 2: this Baker Mayfield situation. He's got a second life maybe

960
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 2: in Tampa. He's not I don't think he's the quarterback

961
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,240
Speaker 2: of the future, but he's having some success.

962
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 3: He is having success. The system is perfect for him.

963
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 4: There's been some debate about system quarterbacks and those things,

964
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 4: but every quarterback must have a system that plays to

965
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 4: his strengths as a player. This is working in Tampa

966
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,280
Speaker 4: because of that, because they have a system in place

967
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 4: that works. He's getting the ball out, they're utilizing the

968
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,280
Speaker 4: weapons that they have, and it's just been a really

969
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 4: solid and efficient and effective offense to watch. As long

970
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 4: as he plays like that, stays with himself, doesn't turn

971
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,359
Speaker 4: the ball over, they got a chance.

972
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got some receivers still, and Mike Ivan's got

973
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 2: Chris Godwin. I mean, you got some players out there.

974
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 2: I mean, certainly the Falcons and their key right now

975
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 2: is John Robinson. The run game. That's basically all they do.

976
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 2: They run the football, and I think if you're at

977
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 2: scheming against them, you know what you're going against. I mean,

978
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 2: you got to get the football. You have that balance. Yeah,

979
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 2: I don't care what team it is. If you look

980
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 2: at teams, there are two statistics that I look at

981
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 2: the following day after the game is over, and not

982
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 2: look at the score. If a quarterback is throwing for

983
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,959
Speaker 2: more than thirty five or forty attempts during the game,

984
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 2: there's a pretty good chance they lost the game. And

985
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 2: if there's a lot more passing than running, there's a

986
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 2: pretty good chance they lost the game. And then if

987
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 2: you want to go even deeper, look at the turnover factor.

988
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,280
Speaker 2: But that's basically the three things that I think control

989
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 2: the football game.

990
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not mad at you. There's some value.

991
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 2: A lot of people get mad at me.

992
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 4: No, I'm not mad at you. There's some value to

993
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 4: being able to run the football. To run the football effectively,

994
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 4: you have to be able to kind of get to it.

995
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 4: When you want to control the clock short shorten the game,

996
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 4: or when you want to set the quarterback up the pass.

997
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 4: You got to be able to run it. We know

998
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 4: everyone knows it, but league that is built in the past.

999
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 4: When you run it, you can solve so many of

1000
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 4: your issues in terms of understanding that the way to

1001
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 4: control tempo, pace, timing.

1002
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 3: All this stuff.

1003
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 2: So you're not mad at me.

1004
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 3: No, I'm not mad at you. I'm not gonna be

1005
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 3: mad at you.

1006
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 4: Okay, I appreciate that I didn't want to you.

1007
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 2: Okay, and we'll put a little bow on this. We'll

1008
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 2: both agree that Tampa Bay is gonna win this game.

1009
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tampa Bay. I got this one. Yeah, Temp Bay

1010
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 3: has this one. Yes, all right?

1011
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:33,240
Speaker 2: We move over now Washington, Washington at the Giants today.

1012
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 2: And if I had a choice, I'd rather take a nap.

1013
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 2: I'd rather take a nap than watch this game. Really,

1014
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 2: I just it eats me up. I grew up following

1015
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 2: the New York Football Giants, all right, and I'm gonna

1016
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,439
Speaker 2: go back in time when they had the uh those

1017
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 2: running backs Ernie Coy and Tucker Frederickson, that they had

1018
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 2: a waya Tytler quarterback. They'll shot to the receiver, Aaron

1019
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 2: Thomas tight end. I mean, come on, these are the guys,

1020
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 2: and what does it come down to? Daniel Jones maybe

1021
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 2: places today Tyrod Taylor. It doesn't make a difference. Gotta

1022
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 2: get protection to these guys. And you talk about protection

1023
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,400
Speaker 2: the quarterback and watching Sam Howell, he's been sacked thirty

1024
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 2: four times. He's on pace for ninety six. Look. I

1025
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 2: watched the Giants game last week against the Bills. They

1026
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 2: couldn't execute on the one on the one yardlining as

1027
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,560
Speaker 2: Buffalo at the end of the first half. I almost

1028
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 2: stuck my finger down my throat watching that. It was disgusting.

1029
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 2: This is the pros, Bucky, this is the pros. This

1030
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 2: shouldn't happen. Come on, give me a toush push, get

1031
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 2: them right in there.

1032
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:36,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, this is interesting. You know when you watch

1033
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 4: this team, you watch the Commanders just in general. Sam

1034
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 4: Howells young, but he's a good player. Whether it be

1035
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 4: the franchise quarterback depends on who becomes the next coach.

1036
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 4: Ron Rivera doesn't hold on to the job. This is

1037
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 4: a team, though, that is underperformed because their defense is

1038
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 4: expected to be the strength of the squade. They're just

1039
00:48:56,440 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 4: not where they need to be. And so I don't know, man,

1040
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 4: you never know with them.

1041
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 3: They're kind of.

1042
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 4: Like Forrest Gumps are like a box of chocolates. You

1043
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 4: never know what you're gonna get on a daily basis

1044
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 4: from this team. So if they show up, look great.

1045
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 4: If not, they're gonna take a nail to a Giants

1046
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 4: team that's really really struggling.

1047
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 2: Okay, the question is now Eric b Enemy with both

1048
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 2: fans of eb offensive coordinator, could you give him a

1049
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 2: grade what he's done thus far is he hurting himself

1050
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 2: for a possibility of a head coaching job, because I

1051
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 2: think if Washington loses and they're not in the playoffs,

1052
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 2: there's a good chance this new ownership is going to

1053
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 2: clean house everybody from GM down to coach.

1054
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he's been fine, you know, but I

1055
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 4: mean it's everything that has to work in the offensive

1056
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,840
Speaker 4: coordinator's favorite. They have weapons in place, the young quarterback

1057
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 4: has shown promise. They haven't won enough games, but a

1058
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 4: lot of that is due to defense, and it's just

1059
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 4: hard when all three phases offense, defense, and kicking game

1060
00:49:56,520 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 4: they're not clicking. So look, he's done a really good job,

1061
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 4: but if this team doesn't win, it's gonna hurd from

1062
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 4: get a head coaching job from a team this man

1063
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 4: completely broken up.

1064
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at two teams now. Last year, what

1065
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 2: was it, the Minnesota Vikings won like eleven games by

1066
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 2: a score by one score, and now they're kind of

1067
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 2: sinking quickly not to make the playoffs. And then the

1068
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,560
Speaker 2: Giants who made the playoffs last year defeated Minnesota in

1069
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 2: that playoffs. Both these teams will probably be on the

1070
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 2: outside looking in this year. How does that happen. How

1071
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 2: did the Giants go from a playoff team and their

1072
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:37,400
Speaker 2: coach last year was lauded as a tremendous savior and

1073
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 2: now they're won in five. I know Sakwon Barkley was there,

1074
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 2: give him that break, I mean, and he was like

1075
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 2: over fifty percent of the offense. But still in all

1076
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 2: four that quickly, that fast.

1077
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,880
Speaker 3: You know, as funny, you shouldn't fall that fast. If

1078
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 3: your team is built the last you should be able

1079
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 3: to kind of continue to level up. Everyone's not built

1080
00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 3: like that.

1081
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,839
Speaker 4: The lack of talent, the lack of development, all those

1082
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:05,319
Speaker 4: things change how your team kind of operates year to year.

1083
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 4: But in the perfect world, yeah, yeah, all of them.

1084
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 4: But if you're short, you're short.

1085
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 2: It's amazing, it really is. I just you know, to me,

1086
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,640
Speaker 2: and maybe on way off base and this you could

1087
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 2: be mad at me if I say this as well.

1088
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the NFL right now, and there's certainly

1089
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 2: a lot of separation, and that happens every year. But

1090
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 2: to me, there's only maybe about four teams that are really,

1091
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 2: really top notch teams, and the rest of the pack

1092
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 2: is just like falling away. And I said this early on.

1093
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 2: I think I said it last week. I think the

1094
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,800
Speaker 2: college games on Saturday are more competitive and better games

1095
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 2: than most of the NFL games on Sunday.

1096
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:42,280
Speaker 3: You're not wrong.

1097
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 4: College football is its own brand, its own unique thing

1098
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,879
Speaker 4: in different styles and all that make it maybe sometimes

1099
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 4: more fun to watch.

1100
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 3: But look, all football is good football.

1101
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 4: And the fact that the league has all these games

1102
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 4: that are coming down to the wire and you're seeing

1103
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 4: I guess teams that aren't household known names kind of

1104
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:04,640
Speaker 4: vault to the top of their divisions.

1105
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, more interests, more intrigue.

1106
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 4: It feeds the hope machine that no matter where we are,

1107
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 4: at some point you can compete for a championship.

1108
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 2: Right And if someone asks me the top four teams,

1109
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 2: maybe I would say forty nine Ers, Eagles, Lions, Dolphins.

1110
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:22,320
Speaker 2: And I tell you why people a gonna say, what

1111
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,319
Speaker 2: about the Kansas City Chiefs. I think they're struggling offensively. Yeah,

1112
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:28,799
Speaker 2: they're winning, but I don't see Patrick Mahomes dominating us

1113
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 2: he has in the past. He's got to turn it around.

1114
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 2: He had a rough week last week.

1115
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 4: I mean, he had a rough week, but this team

1116
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,880
Speaker 4: is real different, so he doesn't need to do anything

1117
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,319
Speaker 4: like this defense can get off the field. So he

1118
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 4: just has to make sure everything comes down to management.

1119
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,360
Speaker 4: Can you manage the game? Can you take care of it?

1120
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 4: Can you do all the other stuff so the team

1121
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 4: can win. When you have a loaded team, your team

1122
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 4: will always win.

1123
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,319
Speaker 2: There you go, And look, it's funny because they do

1124
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 2: not waiver year to year. They've been competitive, they've been

1125
00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 2: dominant the last three four years. And they don't go

1126
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 2: up and down like the Giants did. Really, I mean,

1127
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 2: you win and you got the guy and they lose

1128
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 2: paper Tyreek gone. I mean, come on, and they're still winning.

1129
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 2: They said he can win without him. I mean, these

1130
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 2: guys are just built to win. And I give a

1131
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:13,959
Speaker 2: lot of credit to Andy Reid, who is in fact,

1132
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 2: a big time first ballot Hall of Fame coach, no

1133
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 2: doubt about that.

1134
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,480
Speaker 4: Great coach, always a great coach, unbelievable coach, does a

1135
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,359
Speaker 4: great job of getting his team ready to play. A

1136
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,800
Speaker 4: terrific record after the buy that speaks to his coaching prowess.

1137
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 2: I love him. I love the guy and I love

1138
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,400
Speaker 2: watching him play. And you know, after he got booted

1139
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,879
Speaker 2: out of Philadelphia, kind of felt bad for the guy.

1140
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 2: But you know, they take him back in a heartbeat.

1141
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,719
Speaker 2: You know they would have not They're still winning, but

1142
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 2: they would have taken him back in a heartbeat. All right,

1143
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 2: he's Bucket Brooks. Get him on ex Twitter, whatever you

00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 2: as mentioned the Swollen Dome. Mike Harmon himself joins us

1156
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 2: in the next hour. But Bucky Brooks says, this team

1157
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 2: is for real. That's next. Have you seen how dismal

1158
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 2: this offense is? Well, we'll get to that in just

1159
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 2: about a minute twenty one minutes past the hour, Fox

1160
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 2: Football Sunday, on Fox Sports Radio. Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman

1161
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,799
Speaker 2: with you right here, and of course we have the

1162
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 2: Swollen Dome. Mike Harmon joins us at the top of

1163
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 2: the hour. Next hour. Okay, now I've mentioned this at nauseum,

1164
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 2: the fact that Bucky Brooks, a former player scout, writes

1165
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 2: for NFL dot Com. If you don't read it, you

1166
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,480
Speaker 2: don't click on it, you're missing a lot, you really are,

1167
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,360
Speaker 2: and he says that the Detroit Lions are for real.

1168
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,799
Speaker 2: Today Lions are at the Ravens. This may be the

1169
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 2: best game on TV today is on Fox, and the

1170
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 2: Ravens are favored. The last time I look Sunday one

1171
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 2: o'clock Eastern on Fox Today in Baltimore, and the Ravens

1172
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 2: pass rush against the Lions. This could create a problem.

1173
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,839
Speaker 2: But I want to know from Bucky Brooks himself, who

1174
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 2: said that the Lions are everybody's Cinderella story. Tell me

1175
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 2: why everybody loves the Detroit Lions.

1176
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 4: You know, when you think about the Lions, this is

1177
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 4: a team that has built the right way. Brent brad

1178
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 4: Holmes and Dan Campbell, they've really done a good job

1179
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,040
Speaker 4: of building a team that reflects the image of the City.

1180
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 4: They're tough, gritty, they're scrappy. When you look at this

1181
00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 4: team on all three favorses, they're tough, they're physical, they

1182
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 4: play with great effort, great energy. All those things stand out.

1183
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,359
Speaker 4: And they're a very talented team. This is a team

1184
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,320
Speaker 4: that might sport one of the top three offensive lions

1185
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 4: in football. They have a quarterback, there's a former number

1186
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 4: one pick who's been to a Pro Bowl, led a

1187
00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 4: team to a Super Bowl. And the field positions work

1188
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:05,839
Speaker 4: because they fit what Jered Goff does well. Defensively, eight

1189
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 4: Hudginson is the point on the sword. He's an unquestioned leader.

1190
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,439
Speaker 4: He gets them going with his effort and energy. They

1191
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:15,200
Speaker 4: added some veteran pieces to the secondary, and so Aaron

1192
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,279
Speaker 4: Glenn has done a really good job of continue to

1193
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:22,240
Speaker 4: ramp the pressure up, but keeping the game and simple

1194
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,840
Speaker 4: for the back end, keeping the ball in front, rally

1195
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:26,520
Speaker 4: and tackle, not giving up the big plays.

1196
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 3: And because that the lines are five and one.

1197
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,400
Speaker 2: And the funny thing is, I remember Dan Campbell's introductory

1198
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 2: press conference. He said that his team would quote bite

1199
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 2: a knee cap off media when ballistic on that they

1200
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 2: went crazy, and I gotta believe there are a lot

1201
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,440
Speaker 2: of media people, probably those that covered the Detroit Lions

1202
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 2: because they cover them in those dismal years. All those years,

1203
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 2: they were just writing Dan Campbell off that day. They

1204
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,120
Speaker 2: never thought he could turn it around. And believe he's

1205
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,360
Speaker 2: turned it around. This team right now five and one,

1206
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,360
Speaker 2: they're in the top ten and scoring and total defense

1207
00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 2: and in total offense in the National Football League. Today

1208
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 2: they play at Baltimore. But you know what, I think

1209
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:05,239
Speaker 2: the Ravens get him today, I really do. Ravens coming

1210
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 2: off a twenty four to sixteen winning London against Tennessee

1211
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,800
Speaker 2: last week, and their kicker Justin Tucker, who's a tremendous

1212
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:15,640
Speaker 2: offensive player for them. I mean, anytime fifty yards or in,

1213
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 2: he's going to give you three points. He had six

1214
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 2: field goals last week and he had that was a

1215
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 2: new career high for one game and they won twenty

1216
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 2: four to sixteen. But get back to the pass rush

1217
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,680
Speaker 2: that the Ravens have that could create major problems for

1218
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:32,160
Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions and Jared Goff.

1219
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it could.

1220
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 4: I mean the pass russ could create major problems for

1221
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:39,440
Speaker 4: the Lions. Because the Lions are a rhythm team. They

1222
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 4: want to stay on schedule and want to stay on track.

1223
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 4: They want to run the football because it allows them

1224
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 4: to throw on early downs because you have to respect

1225
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 4: the running game fake So anything that disrupts the timing

1226
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 4: of the pass game is gonna be problematic. The other

1227
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 4: thing when it comes to their defense, can you run

1228
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 4: at them? Can you slow them down? Can you wear them? Now,

1229
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:56,760
Speaker 4: no one's been able to crack the code this year,

1230
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 4: but at some point, like somebody's gonna be able to

1231
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:01,120
Speaker 4: lineup and do it.

1232
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:02,520
Speaker 3: They gotta be ready to handle that kind of.

1233
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,760
Speaker 2: Stuff right and the Lions right now have that balance

1234
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 2: on offense. Jamar Gibbs is gonna play today. He was

1235
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 2: out last week he had that injury. David Montgomery, the

1236
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 2: kid from Cincinnati who's in the Bears lineup a year ago,

1237
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,480
Speaker 2: he's been like their key runner. I mean right now,

1238
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:21,520
Speaker 2: ninety four attempts, like over three hundred and eighty yards rushing,

1239
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 2: six touchdowns. He's their guy. But they also have Saint

1240
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,320
Speaker 2: Brown on the offensive side receiving. I mean, they have

1241
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 2: everything you need to win, I believe me. The top

1242
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,520
Speaker 2: of the division. I'll be rooting for the Detroit Lions

1243
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 2: because I'm a Bengel fan. I think I'd like to

1244
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 2: see the Ravens lose so they'll become four and three.

1245
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 2: But I think the Ravens take him. It's a home game.

1246
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 2: I think the Ravens defense and the type of pass

1247
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 2: rush that will give the Detroit Lions offense problems. You

1248
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:54,880
Speaker 2: got Queen, you got Smith. They're gonna stop Montgomery and Gibbs.

1249
00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,800
Speaker 2: I think they can. And obviously Lamar Jackson is the

1250
00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 2: better of the two quarterbacks.

1251
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, he is the better than two quarterbacks. Lamar Jackson

1252
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 4: has flashed. He hasn't necessarily had that consistent game that

1253
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:09,880
Speaker 4: we're looking for, but he's flashed. Still adapting to this

1254
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 4: new offense. The pass catches have let him down. I

1255
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 4: had seven drops a couple of weeks ago in the

1256
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 4: game that they lost.

1257
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,200
Speaker 3: Those guys got to catch the ball.

1258
00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 4: They have catch the ones that you're expecting to be

1259
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 4: caught in and proceed past the first sound marker. A

1260
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 4: huge game, A lot of pressure on them. I think

1261
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 4: they respond. They play well, So.

1262
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,520
Speaker 2: Who do you? Who do you got in this on Detroit?

1263
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:31,480
Speaker 2: You got Detroit?

1264
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna take Detroit.

1265
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm all over Detroit, man, I'm all over I'm

1266
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 4: all over Detroit on this and I just think the

1267
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 4: Lions are for real and this gives them a chance

1268
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 4: to let the football world know that they're for real.

1269
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 4: So Baltimore has like great storylines. I just think the

1270
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:46,680
Speaker 4: Lions are a better team.

1271
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 2: I'm rooting for Detroit. I hope they win. But if

1272
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,160
Speaker 2: you had to ask me who's gonna win this game,

1273
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 2: I think the Ravens win the game. I hope they don't.

1274
00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 2: I hope I'm wrong. I'm usually wrong, so that's why

1275
00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,480
Speaker 2: I'm picking the Ravens because I usually have the wrong pick.

1276
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 2: So if I picked the Ravens, that means they'll lose,

1277
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 2: So that's good. So I want them to lose. I

1278
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:08,440
Speaker 2: know it's stupid logic, that's me. That's the way it is.

1279
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 2: That's the way it is. Steelers are at the Rams

1280
01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 2: right now, I said, coming into the segment. Have you've

1281
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 2: seen how dismal this offense is? Get this. The Steelers

1282
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 2: don't have a game this year with more than two

1283
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty yards passing or one hundred and twenty

1284
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,960
Speaker 2: five yards rushing, third worst than the NFL. I don't

1285
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 2: get it, and it's hard to believe this team is

1286
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 2: three and two. If Pittsburgh can run the ball and

1287
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 2: to keep the ball out of Matthew Stafford's hands, they

1288
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,680
Speaker 2: got a shot and it could be a big day

1289
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 2: for the Rams running back Williams. Williams may have a

1290
01:00:36,040 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 2: big day today. I just don't see the Steelers winning.

1291
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: Today's be a good day for the Bengals. Whoever buy.

1292
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,920
Speaker 2: If the Steelers lose and the Ravens lose, and I

1293
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 2: can't see the Steelers beating the Rams, I think the

1294
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 2: Rams have more talent and whatever happened to the run game.

1295
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:53,840
Speaker 2: This Steelers team is always built on strong running backs

1296
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 2: running the football. They don't have it anymore, and certainly

1297
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 2: their quarterbacking right now is we'd pick it. I mean,

1298
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 2: it's uh leaves a lot to be desired, at least

1299
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 2: as far as I'm concerned.

1300
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:09,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is interesting because the Stills, as soon as

1301
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:11,560
Speaker 4: you count them out, they find a way to climb

1302
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:16,080
Speaker 4: back into the conversation. The defense is solid, just salty.

1303
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 4: They can get up to the pass. They give a chance.

1304
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 4: I think they feast on some turnover to make it happen.

1305
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 4: I like Pittsburgh in this one.

1306
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 2: Really, you're going against me in both these games. Huh yeah,

1307
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't understand. I just don't understand why.

1308
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 2: I mean, and certainly I see Sean McVay right now.

1309
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 2: Last week against the Cardinals, they had a pass heavy

1310
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 2: attack if you watch that game in the first half,

1311
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,400
Speaker 2: and they couldn't get it done. So Sean McVay, everybody

1312
01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 2: talks about it, you know, making changes, you know, at halftime.

1313
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 2: But you know, these announcers on TV never tell you

1314
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 2: what the changes are. All right, they got to make adjustments. Okay,

1315
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 2: that's what every announce says they're gonna make. Well, I'll

1316
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,720
Speaker 2: tell you what the adjustment was. They switched to running

1317
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 2: the football in the second half and they started moving

1318
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 2: the football. That's what they did. The Rams did in

1319
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 2: the second That was the adjustment that was made. All right,

1320
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:08,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch about three or four games today and

1321
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:11,760
Speaker 2: I guarantee you every freaking announced because all this team's

1322
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:14,160
Speaker 2: gonna make adjustments. Hey, well tell me what they are.

1323
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,680
Speaker 2: What I mean, Bucky, you know what the adjustments are.

1324
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:18,600
Speaker 2: You tell me what they are every Sunday. But these

1325
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 2: announcers don't tell me what the adjustments are. That was

1326
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 2: the adjustment went from passing the football to running the football.

1327
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 2: That's what the Rams did last week.

1328
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:28,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that is what the Rams did last week.

1329
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 4: Karen Williams and this crew does a really good job

1330
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 4: of life running the football. He's not available, but now

1331
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 4: they're gon have to depend on some guys. Michael Street,

1332
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 4: Royce Freeman, derrih Hendis state. You have to figure out

1333
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 4: a way to get it done. But they need to

1334
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 4: run the football because what running the football does is

1335
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 4: it controls the game. It allows them to dictate the

1336
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,760
Speaker 4: terms to the defense. You then can set up Matthew

1337
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 4: Stafford some stuff down the field to push it down

1338
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 4: the field. This is man, Look, this is a team

1339
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 4: just scrap it. They can punch above their weight class,

1340
01:02:58,120 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 4: so I give them a chance.

1341
01:02:59,840 --> 01:03:02,440
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny people talk about running the football.

1342
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,600
Speaker 2: It's so many There are so many advantages. Number one,

1343
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 2: it eats out the clock if you're winning, and number

1344
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,680
Speaker 2: two keeps the other team's offense on the bench. I mean,

1345
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,280
Speaker 2: if you don't run the football, and we saw what

1346
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 2: it did last year with the Giants. You know, Saquon

1347
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:18,840
Speaker 2: Barkley was almost sixty percent of their total offense. And

1348
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 2: now that he's hurt, they're one and five. That's the

1349
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 2: difference is like night and day, you have to run

1350
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 2: the football. I'm not saying you have to be run heavy,

1351
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 2: but at least be able to run the football. And

1352
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,800
Speaker 2: I think that's one of the problems I think the

1353
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals are having. They're not running the football. But again,

1354
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:36,439
Speaker 2: if you have a quarterback like Joe Burrow, I think

1355
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 2: your offense has to be geared to passing the football

1356
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,520
Speaker 2: when you have three outstanding receivers that the Bengals do

1357
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 2: have agreed.

1358
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 4: You know, when I think about the Bengals, when I

1359
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:52,320
Speaker 4: think about the Bengals, and I think about like Joe

1360
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 4: By and Mixing and those things, like one of the

1361
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,520
Speaker 4: reasons they have been struggles because they haven't committed to

1362
01:03:57,600 --> 01:04:00,000
Speaker 4: that stuff. And for all the teams that will talk

1363
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 4: talk about the rest of the day, the running game

1364
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,920
Speaker 4: slows everything down. The running game also allows you if

1365
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:08,240
Speaker 4: you want big plays, big plays have to come off

1366
01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:11,520
Speaker 4: run action shots because it forces the way the defense plays.

1367
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 3: You. You got to get the two safeties out of

1368
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:14,240
Speaker 3: the parking lot.

1369
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:16,040
Speaker 4: You got to force one of those guys to come

1370
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 4: in the box so you can get some single high

1371
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:18,920
Speaker 4: looks for that.

1372
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:20,400
Speaker 3: What we're seeing in the league.

1373
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:23,240
Speaker 4: Everyone is willing to concede yards between the twenty because

1374
01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 4: they are obsessed with taking the deep ball away. Until

1375
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 4: teams run people out of those defenses, we won't see the.

1376
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,439
Speaker 3: Scoring go back up to what we're used to seeing

1377
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 3: in recent years.

1378
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, the scoring has been down. How much has it

1379
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 2: been down? Have you followed that the scoring.

1380
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 3: Has been No, I haven't. I haven't. I haven't been down.

1381
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 4: But it just feels like over the course of weekends

1382
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 4: that we're having more upper teams low twenty scores as

1383
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:51,920
Speaker 4: opposed to the You know, we had games that were

1384
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 4: like twenty to twenty eight to thirty thirty four. We're

1385
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,480
Speaker 4: not seeing many teams hit the thirty point mark, you know,

1386
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:00,920
Speaker 4: because you just the big plays, aren't You have to

1387
01:05:00,920 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 4: have big plays to score in this league. It's too

1388
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 4: hard to go ten plays eighty yards without a penalty

1389
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:07,520
Speaker 4: or a negative play.

1390
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,240
Speaker 2: And maybe that's the reason why I like college football,

1391
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 2: especially watching the Big twelve. That's all they do is score,

1392
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 2: there's no defense. I watched that Oklahoma State West Virginia

1393
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 2: game yesterday. That's all I do is score. Really, you

1394
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:20,080
Speaker 2: need a calculate it to watch the Big twelve and

1395
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 2: Michigan putting up forty nine against Michigan State. I think

1396
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:25,959
Speaker 2: that's what fans want. They want to see points, right,

1397
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 2: I think.

1398
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:30,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, they do want to see points. They want to

1399
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 4: see scoring in those things. But man, these defensive coordinators

1400
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,040
Speaker 4: are smart. When you start making rules and they start

1401
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 4: making rules to favor the offense, defenses are okay, just

1402
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:40,720
Speaker 4: what we got to do, We'll figured out. And then

1403
01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:42,760
Speaker 4: they figured out about midway through the season and it

1404
01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 4: goes right back down. That's why, Like when we talked

1405
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 4: about the Patriots some of these other teams, and we

1406
01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 4: talked about it being a wise but man, a great

1407
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 4: coach can come up with a play to stimy anybody,

1408
01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 4: and if he has the right personnel, that's when they

1409
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 4: become playoff teams and title teams. Some of these coaches

1410
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 4: were great with the X and os and the wizardry,

1411
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:04,480
Speaker 4: don't have the right people to get it done.

1412
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 2: You heard it first, he's the man, Bucky Brooks. Yes,

1413
01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Fermit together with Fox Football Sonday of Fox

1414
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 2: Spot's ready and now weren't they supposed to be the

1415
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:14,479
Speaker 2: worst team in the league. Weren't they. Well, that's coming

1416
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,560
Speaker 2: up next live for the tiraq dot Com studios. But first,

1417

01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 5: Pat Fryarmouth, however, is going to take his place on

1422
01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 5: injured reserve. The Eagles have elevated Julio Jones to the

1423
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:39,480
Speaker 5: active roster. That was expected and he will play Sunday

1424
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:42,959
Speaker 5: night against the Dolphins. Forty nine DS wide receiver Deebo

1425

Speaker 5: Samuel I'm gonna miss a couple of weeks with a

01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 5: fractured sold fractured shoulder. Christian McCaffrey listed asked questionable. He's

1427
01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,120
Speaker 5: been dealing with oblique injury, so we'll see if he

1428
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 5: can suit up tomorrow for San Francisco. Ian Rappaport with

1429
01:06:56,520 --> 01:06:58,720
Speaker 5: a couple of updates over nights. The Ox wide receiver

1430
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:02,440
Speaker 5: DK metcalf is listed as questionable with riven hip injuries

1431
01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 5: and he's considered a game time decision. Same for Charger

1432
01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:09,360
Speaker 5: safety Derwin James. He hurt his ankle on Thursday during practice,

1433
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 5: did not practice at all on Friday. They're saying he

1434
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 5: is a game time decision and they're gonna work him

1435
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 5: out pregame to see if he is able to go.

1436
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 5: Adam Schefter out with a tweet saying that it's gonna

1437
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 5: be Royce Freeman Darryl Henderson getting a bulk of the

1438
01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:25,280
Speaker 5: carries today in the Rams backfield. Kien Williams of course

1439
01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 5: going to injured reserve, so he will be back to

1440
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 5: week thirteen, So expect right now, at least at least

1441
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:35,040
Speaker 5: for today's game, it'll be largely Royce Freeman and Darryl Henderson.

1442
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 5: Lion's running back Craig Reynolds listened as questionable for Sunday

1443
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:40,600
Speaker 5: due to a hamstring and tow injury. He is expected

1444
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,400
Speaker 5: to play. That is, according to ESPN. Brown's running back

1445
01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:47,360
Speaker 5: Kareem Hunt listed as questionable due to a strange thought.

1446
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 5: He's gonna be tested in pregame warm ups and he

1447
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:53,320
Speaker 5: will also be a game time decision. However, Cleveland is

1448
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:58,960
Speaker 5: concerned about his availability. Packards running back Aaron Jones questionable

1449
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 5: with a hamstring and he is expected to play against

1450
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:07,840
Speaker 5: the Denver Broncos and Major League Postseason ALCS Game six

1451
01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 5: Texas Rangers Houston Astros Houston on Top three to two.

1452
01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:15,760
Speaker 5: That'll be tonight on FS one. That's you, guys, Thank you.

1453
01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:18,720
Speaker 2: See it about an hour. Okay, the quarterback has struggled

1454
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:21,559
Speaker 2: on the pressure. Yes he has. That's right around the corner.

1455
01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:24,400
Speaker 2: Yes he has, and he is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy

1462
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,200
Speaker 2: bottom barrew betting at about seven eight minutes from now.

1463
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,840
Speaker 2: But the Cardinals are at the Seahawks today, and as

1464
01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:50,720
Speaker 2: I mentioned, I wanted to see Pete Carroll and tell

1465
01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 2: him that, Hey Pete, oh coach, I'm sorry, Hey coach Carol,

1466
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks says, you're a genius. I didn't do that.

1467
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 5: Of course.

1468
01:08:57,320 --> 01:09:00,720
Speaker 2: They lost lest week in Cincinnati seventeen thirteen. They gave

1469
01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:03,639
Speaker 2: it away. They didn't the Bengals didn't win. The Seattle

1470
01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 2: Seahawks lost. They had three turnovers and just it was ugly.

1471
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:11,520
Speaker 2: It really was. They have third down problems, red zone problems.

1472
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:14,000
Speaker 2: You know, I expected more from the Seahawks. I thought

1473
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 2: the seah Owks would win that game. I don't know

1474
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:18,160
Speaker 2: about you. I think you picked the Bengals. I think

1475
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:19,639
Speaker 2: you did pick Cincinnati in that game.

1476
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:22,240
Speaker 4: I can't I can't remember go back and forth because

1477
01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 4: I think I waxed poetic about the Seahawks, then I

1478
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,800
Speaker 4: went the other way, So maybe that was the move.

1479
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:32,439
Speaker 4: But here's the thing, man, Like the Bengals are finding

1480
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:34,080
Speaker 4: their way, They're finding the identity.

1481
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 3: Which is great.

1482
01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:36,639
Speaker 4: This is a team that we'd love having new conversation

1483
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 4: because their passing game is lethal. Win Joe Burrow is

1484
01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:42,640
Speaker 4: the pointer, so that that that is one. And you

1485
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:46,559
Speaker 4: know the thing about Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll is is older.

1486
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:48,080
Speaker 4: I think he's the oldest coach in the league. But

1487
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:50,719
Speaker 4: when you watch him, he has maybe the most energy

1488
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:51,479
Speaker 4: of any coach.

1489
01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:54,559
Speaker 2: In the league. And he goes to the most chewing

1490
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:55,040
Speaker 2: gum too.

1491
01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:58,400
Speaker 4: He has all of it. And so you think about

1492
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:00,360
Speaker 4: his teams and his teams play like that. So even

1493
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 4: though they have some hiccups along the way, team that

1494
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 4: plays hard, they play fast is super prowerful than what

1495
01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:05,800
Speaker 4: they do.

1496
01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:09,240
Speaker 2: You know, I look at this car.

1497
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 3: They didn't this week.

1498
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:12,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they're gonna win. I think they're gonna

1499
01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 2: win today. I think they'll be the Arizona. The game

1500
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 2: is at Seattle. That's an advantage, and we don't talk

1501
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:19,800
Speaker 2: about the home field advantage that much anymore. But I

1502
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:22,599
Speaker 2: think that right now, Jonathan Gannon is doing a hell

1503
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,400
Speaker 2: of a job with the Cardinals I really do. I

1504
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,160
Speaker 2: think he's taking away that stigma that this is going

1505
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,400
Speaker 2: to be the worst team in the league. I know,

1506
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,040
Speaker 2: I know they won in five, but you know you

1507
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,000
Speaker 2: got to say, well, look, Cayler Murray is not there.

1508
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:34,960
Speaker 2: So I think it's a major concern for them right now.

1509
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:39,000
Speaker 2: But you know, the Cardinals wide receiver Hollywood Brown against

1510
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:41,759
Speaker 2: the Seahawks Witherspoon, that's gonna be a pretty good matchup.

1511
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:44,400
Speaker 2: But I think the Seahawks take them. It's not gonna

1512
01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 2: be a big, a big win. I think maybe why

1513
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 2: a touchdown is so, But I think the Seaks are

1514
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:50,880
Speaker 2: a better team. It just that's the way it is

1515
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 2: Seahawks win.

1516
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:55,280
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I mean that is the way it

1517
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:56,479
Speaker 3: is with Hawks on that too.

1518
01:10:57,160 --> 01:11:01,280
Speaker 2: All right, Packers at Broncos again. This Broncos team, I

1519
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 2: expected more than one in five. Packers are two and three.

1520
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:09,479
Speaker 2: Jordan Love, the package quarterback. He has struggled under pressure.

1521
01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:11,000
Speaker 2: I mean it's a stupid thing to say, because I

1522
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,720
Speaker 2: think most people struggle on the pressure, even if you're

1523
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:16,679
Speaker 2: not a pro football player under pressure. People struggle period

1524
01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 2: under story. But Jordan Love has struggled under pressure. And

1525
01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:23,360
Speaker 2: the defense though on Denver won't hurt him because I

1526
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:24,960
Speaker 2: don't think there's gonna be a lot of pressure on

1527
01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,639
Speaker 2: Jordan Love from the Denver defense. I really don't.

1528
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:34,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jordan Love should be able to get going. They

1529
01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:35,760
Speaker 4: need to get back on tracks. They need to get

1530
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:39,040
Speaker 4: back to run the football. It's big for them. He

1531
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,000
Speaker 4: has to make sure he targets to play makers on

1532
01:11:41,040 --> 01:11:44,840
Speaker 4: the perimeter, Christian Wison, Romiy Dubbs, those guys. They have

1533
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:48,240
Speaker 4: to begin to piece manice together and kind of play

1534
01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:52,320
Speaker 4: like I hate to say this, but play like they've

1535
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:55,160
Speaker 4: played over and over and over again, time and time again.

1536
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:57,479
Speaker 4: This is a team, the Packers that have a formula

1537
01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 4: and a blueprint for how they need to play, and

1538
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,639
Speaker 4: it worked even in the post Aaron Rodgers error. When

1539
01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 4: they are efficient on offense, whether through the pass game

1540
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:08,920
Speaker 4: with mixed some runs, and they're playing great takeaway style defense,

1541
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 4: meaning they're obsessed with the turnover, they win games. They

1542
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:12,880
Speaker 4: got to get back to that. And we know watching

1543
01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:15,040
Speaker 4: Russell Wills and Russell Willis will give you opportunities to

1544
01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:16,040
Speaker 4: take the ball away.

1545
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,120
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. And you talk about the Packers,

1546
01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:21,400
Speaker 2: here's their offense right now, running back Aaron Jones, wide

1547
01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:24,879
Speaker 2: receiver Christian Watson boom. That's basically they have any success.

1548
01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,280
Speaker 2: That's how I'll have the success today. If there's a problem,

1549
01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 2: if there's an achilles heel on the Green Bay package,

1550
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:31,600
Speaker 2: it's the run defense. I think it's a problem. So

1551
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,439
Speaker 2: what Denver does. They got to give the ball to

1552
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:37,040
Speaker 2: Javonte Williams. But if Aaron Rodgers has a day, you

1553
01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 2: know the Denver Broncles won't be on the field that much,

1554
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:42,240
Speaker 2: So Javonte Williams won't be getting the football. That's just

1555
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:44,519
Speaker 2: the way it is. I think that's the way it is,

1556
01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:46,880
Speaker 2: and I think the Packers win by at least at

1557
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:47,920
Speaker 2: least a touchdown.

1558
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:58,440
Speaker 4: Yes, big, Now I'm not medicing going big look at you.

1559
01:12:57,240 --> 01:12:59,360
Speaker 2: Well, I mean just it's just the way it is.

1560
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:03,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the Broncos are a disappointment. I

1561
01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:07,000
Speaker 2: expected more from Sean Payton. I think that the glow

1562
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,720
Speaker 2: has worn off Sean Payton right now. I get it.

1563
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:12,600
Speaker 2: The personnel's not that good. I think he tried his

1564
01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:16,560
Speaker 2: best to kind of build up Russell Wilson in the preseason,

1565
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:20,680
Speaker 2: you know, basically pointing fingers at the Jets and basically

1566
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:24,200
Speaker 2: blaming the Jets for his failures as the offensive coordinator.

1567
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 2: But I think right now, Russell Wilson's not Russell Wilson.

1568
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 2: You know, he's lost it. Whatever he had he doesn't

1569
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,200
Speaker 2: have anymore. And he doesn't have the personnel around him

1570
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 2: that saved his rear end when he was in Seattle.

1571
01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 3: No, he doesn't. He doesn't have it around him.

1572
01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:44,559
Speaker 4: It's unfortunate, like they mask a lot of his flaws

1573
01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 4: with the running game and stuff like that, and so

1574
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:49,200
Speaker 4: what has happened is I won't say he's been exposed,

1575
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 4: but there's the reason why they never wanted Russell to cook. Primarily,

1576
01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:55,559
Speaker 4: he's not the type of quarterback that you can throw

1577
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:59,080
Speaker 4: like that, so it's a big issue here.

1578
01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:01,280
Speaker 2: You go, all right, He's Bucky Brooks on Andy Firm.

1579

01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 7: go to the American League of Hockey the AHL and guys.

1601
01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:11,600
Speaker 7: The game I picked for it is the Hershey Bears

1602
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:15,000
Speaker 7: at the Bridgeport Islanders. I saw hersh I thought of

1603
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:16,760
Speaker 7: the chocolate, and I'm like, you know what sounds like

1604
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,200
Speaker 7: a good time, So I went with them. Uh, the

1605
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,439
Speaker 7: over under for the total goals for the end of

1606
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 7: the game is actually five and a half. So I

1607
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:27,639
Speaker 7: want to ask you, let's go with you first a Bucky,

1608
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:31,280
Speaker 7: Are you guys taking the over under? And it's five

1609
01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:31,800
Speaker 7: and a half.

1610
01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:36,120
Speaker 3: I want to take the over. I just feel like

1611
01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,519
Speaker 3: the dynamic gotcha, Bucky, go.

1612
01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,800
Speaker 2: With the overven and a half. Hershey kisses like that,

1613
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go the under. You know why?

1614
01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:45,720
Speaker 7: Why is that?

1615
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:49,759
Speaker 2: Because Bucky too the over and he can't be right that.

1616
01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:51,720
Speaker 2: That's Do we have the results for last week? We

1617
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:52,679
Speaker 2: actually did a chance?

1618
01:15:52,840 --> 01:15:55,839
Speaker 7: Yeah you know. Shaysha actually just gave me the results

1619
01:15:55,880 --> 01:16:00,840
Speaker 7: about earlier yesterday. He said that the winner at four

1620
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 7: to oh one or four winning four and one was

1621
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,080
Speaker 7: Bucky Brooks. You are the winner for last week.

1622
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:11,800
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, I may want to change Andy.

1623
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:13,759
Speaker 7: Do you want to know your total or no?

1624
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:15,599
Speaker 2: No, no, no.

1625
01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 7: It's probably for the best.

1626
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,439
Speaker 2: You know what, is there a correlation to be being

1627
01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 2: banned in sports and being bad in this game? Because

1628
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:24,040
Speaker 2: you know, Buckey was a pro, it was great in sports,

1629
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,280
Speaker 2: he's great in this game. You know, I wasn't much

1630
01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:28,760
Speaker 2: of an athlete, and now I'm not doing anything in

1631
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:30,839
Speaker 2: this game. Either, go ahead, do the next.

1632
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 7: One, all right, next next one, We're actually gonna go

1633
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,160
Speaker 7: to basketball. But it's not NBA. We're actually going to

1634
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 7: the Energy Basket Liga, which is a Polish league in Poland.

1635
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,400
Speaker 7: And it is I'm not even gonna try and pronounce it.

1636
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:46,599
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna go cutting it to the first ones.

1637
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 7: It's with the team is named Slask versus and Will.

1638
01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,640
Speaker 7: They are facing off. Now, this team and Will is

1639
01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:57,559
Speaker 7: favored by eight points over Slask.

1640
01:16:58,000 --> 01:16:59,519
Speaker 5: Now let's go.

1641
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:04,479

1642
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:06,000
Speaker 7: favorite by eight points. Is the upset.

1643
01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:11,240
Speaker 2: I'll take. I'll take the points. The slash slash, whatever, slash.

1644
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:12,240
Speaker 7: I gotta let's go with slash.

1645
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:14,040
Speaker 2: I like that slash.

1646
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:17,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, slash, that's that's that's a nice name.

1647
01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:21,280
Speaker 7: What's that slash is gonna make a splash, It's slashing

1648
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:24,080
Speaker 7: and and will or we just call him Anville, like

1649
01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 7: you know, like from the Looney Tunes.

1650
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:27,920
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go, let's go, let's go Anvil.

Speaker 2: Let's go, all right, and Ville and because I have

1652
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 2: to slash because he knows I'm probably wrong.

1653
01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:38,360
Speaker 7: All right, all right, we got too in the books. Now, guys,

1654

01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 2: Let me ask you something, mister Patrick here, Yes, you

1674
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,479
Speaker 2: are you gonna be involved? Are you playing this? Are

1675
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:51,320
Speaker 2: you involved with this?

1676
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:53,800
Speaker 7: I am not, but I am not, but I do

Speaker 2: And it is fairly popular. Dude, people play this for money?

1681
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:05,559
Speaker 2: Is there gambling involved in this?

1682
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:07,680
Speaker 7: There is gambling involved. In fact, I actually went on

1683
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:09,840
Speaker 7: there was a couple of gambling sites that kind of

1684
01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,519

1692
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:40,640

1693
01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:44,519
Speaker 7: taking on Andrew Gilding the over under for the total

1694

Speaker 7: ask you this guy straight up. Do they go under

1696
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:52,920
Speaker 7: nine and a half? H Bucky, you go first?

1697
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:56,040

Speaker 7: all right, we got guilding.

1700
01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 4: I'm going for guilding. I'm going for guilding. I like

1701
01:20:05,240 --> 01:20:06,280
Speaker 4: Darris Guilding as a guy.

1702
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:07,080
Speaker 3: I just feel it.

1703
01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:09,200
Speaker 7: All right, we'd going for the gold with guilding. I

1704
01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:11,599
Speaker 7: got it, all right? What about you? Andy?

1705
01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 2: Well, you did say this is somewhat simple, and I'm

1706
01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:17,080
Speaker 2: kind of a simple person really, so I should get

1707
01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 2: this one correct. I'm going with Big d. I'm going

1708
01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 2: with Big.

1709
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:22,400
Speaker 7: Dan Danny Nelp. Yeah, let's go.

1710
01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 2: Oh you like that?

1711
01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:24,400
Speaker 7: I like it?

1712
01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:24,840
Speaker 2: You know what?

1713
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:26,439
Speaker 7: Like Kirk Cousins. I like that.

1714
01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:28,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, you like Kirk Cousins too.

1715
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:30,840
Speaker 7: I'm a Viking fan, so I put up with that.

1716
01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:33,479
Speaker 2: I love Kirk Cousins. I mean, that's the way it is.

1717
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:35,879
Speaker 2: What did you watch? You must have watched it on Netflix?

1718
01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:36,120
Speaker 3: Right?

1719
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:37,120
Speaker 2: The quarterbacks? I did?

1720
01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:38,880
Speaker 7: It was but he was great.

1721
01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:40,880
Speaker 2: You know, honestly, I buck, I'll tell you this. I

1722
01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,760
Speaker 2: had a really negative opinion of Kirk Cousins because he

1723
01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:46,639
Speaker 2: was kind of adamant about not taking the vaccine for COVID.

1724
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:48,360
Speaker 2: I don't know why, but it just bothered me. And

1725
01:20:48,439 --> 01:20:50,760
Speaker 2: when I watched him with on the quarterbacks thing, he

1726
01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,519
Speaker 2: was lovable family guy. I just I really like.

1727
01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:56,200
Speaker 4: It is he sixty million dollars lovable.

1728
01:20:56,280 --> 01:20:58,840
Speaker 3: That's that's what yourself if you love him?

1729
01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:01,719
Speaker 5: There you go, all right the swollen dome.

1730
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 2: Mike Harmon, he joins us next right here on Fox.

Speaker 5: one fun and exciting game of everybody finger pointing if

1740
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 5: you're looking at the sideline of the New Orleans Saints.

1741
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:43,320
Speaker 5: A lot of that here in Los Angeles. As we

1742
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:46,280
Speaker 5: get started here on a big Sunday, you would think

1743
01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:50,400
Speaker 5: the things were melting down after another USC loss. We'll

1744
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 5: get to that in a moment, joined as always by

1745
01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:59,480
Speaker 5: the legend Andy Furman. They're representing. He's got his Bengals

1747
01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:07,800
Speaker 5: like the like that great fan from the Jaguars, who

1748
01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,760
Speaker 5: I know Bucky is really close with I'm try it. It's

1749
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 5: Andy Furman. It's Bucky Brooks, five years of the league,

1750
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:17,600
Speaker 5: NFL analyst, NFL Scout, NFL dot Com, NFL Network, and

1751
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 5: obviously he's here with us on Fox Football Sunday. I'm

1752
01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 5: Mike Carmon. Thanks for being part of the extended family.

1753
01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:26,840
Speaker 5: You heard the laughter, because well, that's where we're at.

1754
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 5: We're in a weird place in the National Football League,

1755
01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:33,160
Speaker 5: still separating the haves and have not. But guys, last night,

1756
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:37,559
Speaker 5: more chaos in college football, that rarity where all your

1757
01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:42,679
Speaker 5: big quarterbacks all had some struggles on the line, and

1758
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:45,439
Speaker 5: for us here in Los Angeles, a lot of my

1759
01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:49,519
Speaker 5: friends gripping after a huge USC loss. What did you

1760
01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:52,800
Speaker 5: guys think of the college football day where you just

1761
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:56,160
Speaker 5: d raptured over the course of a full saturday, Andy.

1762
01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:57,880
Speaker 2: Well, let me correct you for a second. You said

1763
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:01,080
Speaker 2: all the big quarterbacks went down. JJ McCarthy didn't, and

1764
01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:04,000
Speaker 2: Michigan won. And I don't care what the NCAA says

1765
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 2: about scouting stealing signs. You know what, though, they don't

1766
01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:12,200
Speaker 2: need to steal because Michigan doesn't need to steal signs

1767
01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 2: to beat Rutgers or Maryland or anybody else in that conference.

1768
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,080
Speaker 2: They really don't. They rolled over Michigan State forty nine

1769
01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 2: to zhing they're killing people in that conference, Indiana fifty

1770
01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:25,240
Speaker 2: two to seven. So JJ McCarthy to me, should be

1771
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,759
Speaker 2: moving up the ladder for Heisman votes. That's all I'm saying.

1772
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 4: I mean, I feel you on the quarterback of the

1773
01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 4: maybe best team in the country getting the Heisman.

1774
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 3: But I don't know if statistically.

1775
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,240
Speaker 4: He's up there where you look at Michigan and say, Wow,

1776
01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:46,679
Speaker 4: they're doing all of this because they have the greatest

1777
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:49,160
Speaker 4: player at quarterback. I don't think that's the case. Last

1778
01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 4: year with Caleb Williams, you feel like sc was only

1779
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:56,400
Speaker 4: in conversations because of his wizardry. This year not so much.

1780
01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,360
Speaker 4: But yeah, I think it still needs to be a great, great,

1781
01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:00,160
Speaker 4: great player here.

1782
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:01,240
Speaker 3: Get it.

1783
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:04,200
Speaker 5: Now he's starting to move up the ranks. You're absolutely right, Andy,

1784
01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:06,719
Speaker 5: I did not mean to disrespect him as they rolled

1785
01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 5: over a program in disarray, that is the Michigan State spartans,

1786
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:14,400
Speaker 5: the ones who probably uh stopped on a dime and

1787
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 5: rated out things and investigation. Obviously we saw the clip

1788
01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:24,639
Speaker 5: make the rounds about Chiano earlier this week. I there's

1789
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 5: some stuff going on, he said going into halftime. Wasn't

1790
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:29,920
Speaker 5: really pressed by the reporter. I don't think caught on

1791
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,840
Speaker 5: to what he was trying to intimate there, almost like,

1792
01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:35,559
Speaker 5: please ask me the follow up question. Please ask me.

1793
01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:36,880
Speaker 5: He's like, no, if you want to say it, just

1794
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 5: say it. Say you've heard some dirty things. Whatever. I

1795
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:42,559
Speaker 5: did like the uh the individual shots though, of the

1796
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:45,559
Speaker 5: guy with the Michigan hoodie and everything sitting in the

1797
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,320
Speaker 5: fan section. So that was kind of entertaining along the way.

1798
01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:50,760
Speaker 5: And I agree with you on the larger scale and

1799
01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:53,960
Speaker 5: if you could go and advance scout. What's the difference

1800
01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:57,479
Speaker 5: between that and Joe Bob blogger posting what he found

1801
01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:59,960
Speaker 5: and recaptured on his report, you know, on his cam

1802
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:03,840
Speaker 5: quarter or on his high powered phone and putting it

1803
01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:06,639
Speaker 5: up on the blog that someone happens to see. Now.

1804
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,600
Speaker 5: I like the fact that the guy's name was Stallions.

1805
01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:12,000
Speaker 5: I mean, that's kind of a nice little touch again

1806
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,519
Speaker 5: located where we are here near Chatsworth. I'll let you

1807
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,479
Speaker 5: all look it up online and try to figure out

1808
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:20,240
Speaker 5: what that town is famous for. You know, it's an

1809
01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 5: early Sunday morning. We can't do that here on the air.

1810
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:27,479
Speaker 5: But as of the Heisman odds, you have Pennix Junior,

1811
01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:30,000
Speaker 5: who did not throw a touchdown.

1812
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 2: Pass yesterday, right, threw a couple of balls across the

1813
01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:37,679
Speaker 2: field into traffic that you're looking at.

1814
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 5: Like, wait a minute, what is going on here? Struggling

1815
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:45,160
Speaker 5: against the Arizona squads. Dylan Gabriel he was ten to

1816
01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:48,360
Speaker 5: one coming into yesterday. McCarthy third, right, and then you

1817
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:52,160
Speaker 5: start drifting back Daniels, Travis Gleb Williams all the way

1818
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:54,719
Speaker 5: down at thirty to one, et cetera. But the larger

1819
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:57,519
Speaker 5: point was the guys that we've been talking about for

1820
01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:01,000
Speaker 5: Draft stock, I guess was the point. And because you've

1821
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:03,640
Speaker 5: got Michigan taking care of business to this point, and

1822
01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:07,799
Speaker 5: obviously with everything swirling around, is it cheeseburgers, is it tape,

1823
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:11,120
Speaker 5: whatever the case is, they're just man handling people in

1824
01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:14,320
Speaker 5: Michigan state the latest. But you know, since we do

1825
01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:16,800
Speaker 5: a lot of NFL here, it was more about those

1826
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 5: those guys that were the sexy would be top draft

1827
01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:22,640
Speaker 5: picks and whether you know you came away with a

1828
01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 5: bad taste in your mouth there, certainly USC losing to

1829
01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:30,920
Speaker 5: Utah some of the footage on the sidelines and then

1830
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:34,720
Speaker 5: for USC postgame, gentlemen, they did not make the players

1831
01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:38,800
Speaker 5: available to the press. If you can believe that week

1832
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,599
Speaker 5: well and get this here, here's a Lincoln Riley quote

1833
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:47,080
Speaker 5: talking about expectations and the team where they're at this season.

1834
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 8: Thinking this this team had, you know, national championship aspirations,

1835
01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:54,559
Speaker 8: college football playoff aspirations. Does it feel like, you know,

1836
01:26:54,920 --> 01:26:57,479
Speaker 8: six and two, you guys have fallen short of a goal,

1837
01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:00,240
Speaker 8: And how do you kind of reframe expectation, you know,

1838
01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 8: going forward.

1839
01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:02,920
Speaker 3: We're in the middle of the season.

1840
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:06,760
Speaker 9: You know, it's just that's that's a that's a dream world, right,

1841
01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:11,640
Speaker 9: You're you're fighting your ass off every single week, Like

1842
01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 9: you don't. We don't come in every single week talking

1843
01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:17,160
Speaker 9: about winning a national championship, going to the playoffs, And I

1844
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 9: don't know where that narrative starts. You come in every

1845
01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 9: single week trying to fight your tael off to go

1846
01:27:23,240 --> 01:27:25,800
Speaker 9: play well and win a ball game, and it's a

1847
01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:27,880
Speaker 9: it's a strain every week to do it. And that's

1848
01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:29,320
Speaker 9: it's a fight every week.

1849
01:27:29,160 --> 01:27:29,479
Speaker 3: To do it.

1850
01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:32,160
Speaker 9: We want a hell of a lot more here than

1851
01:27:32,200 --> 01:27:33,080
Speaker 9: we've lost.

1852
01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:36,000
Speaker 5: So yeah, we'll fade him out there because he kind

1853
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,920
Speaker 5: of rambles out about that. But I found it interesting me.

1854
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:41,320
Speaker 5: I don't know where that started. It's like there was

1855
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:46,880
Speaker 5: a great introductory back and forth presser followed by an

1856
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:49,360
Speaker 5: interview with Bill Bill Plashki we all know him, former

1857
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:54,479
Speaker 5: colleague here on Sunday mornings on Fox Sports Radio La Times,

1858
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:58,320
Speaker 5: a legend around the Hord, you know Bill Plashki, where

1859
01:27:58,360 --> 01:28:00,320
Speaker 5: he said, we didn't come here to finish, I can't.

1860
01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:03,800
Speaker 5: We came here to win titles. Now. Later on in

1861
01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:07,880
Speaker 5: his presser, Riley seemed to address some of the rumor,

1862
01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:11,640
Speaker 5: conjecture speculation out there about going to the pros. I

1863
01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:13,800
Speaker 5: would ask you this if I'm a pro team and

1864
01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:17,599
Speaker 5: everybody like there was a Dan Patrick report and inside

1865
01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 5: USC you got Scott Wolf who's covered the team for years,

1866
01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:24,519
Speaker 5: kind of saying, hey, maybe a package deal. Lincoln Riley

1867
01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:27,400
Speaker 5: and Caleb Williams I don't want Lincoln Riley anywhere near

1868
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 5: my team. I speak as a as a guy whose

1869
01:28:30,040 --> 01:28:32,360
Speaker 5: team that he bleeds for. I'm wearing a you know,

1870
01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:35,960
Speaker 5: I was wearing a Jay Cutler Suresey yesterday. Like I

1871
01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 5: don't want him with the Bears, Like I don't want him.

1872
01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:40,519
Speaker 5: I don't want him around my NFL team the way

1873
01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:43,720
Speaker 5: they don't adhere to any of the toughness that you

1874
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:46,600
Speaker 5: need to play on defense, and and you do a

1875
01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 5: lot of excuse making. He takes no credit for any

1876
01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:50,720
Speaker 5: of it.

1877
01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,280
Speaker 2: Right, I spept around pretty good last week forty eight

1878
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:55,120
Speaker 2: to twenty by Notre Dame, and I think he was

1879
01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:57,439
Speaker 2: asked by some media guy after the game and he

1880
01:28:57,560 --> 01:29:00,759
Speaker 2: kind of kind of said and nuts so many words,

1881
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:04,080
Speaker 2: but I'm kind of paraphrasing. He said, well, that doesn't

1882
01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:06,360
Speaker 2: make that much of it doesn't count. But it doesn't

1883
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:08,920
Speaker 2: count because it's not a conference game. It doesn't coet.

1884
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:10,639
Speaker 2: So you know, if it doesn't count, don't play him.

1885
01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:13,000
Speaker 2: Don't play Note to Dave, if it doesn't count. See,

1886
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,240
Speaker 2: it doesn't count. That was the most moronic thing I've

1887
01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:16,000
Speaker 2: ever heard of say.

1888
01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:22,679
Speaker 4: Really, yeah, I think somebody man, well, he's so stupid.

1889
01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:23,960
Speaker 2: It doesn't count.

1890
01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:26,639
Speaker 5: Just wants you to be fired up, that's all Bucky.

1891
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,680
Speaker 5: I mean, look and Andy, I think no, no, no, I

1892
01:29:29,760 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 5: like that. I think to some degree though, right he's saying, well,

1893
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:35,280
Speaker 5: it's not conference, and if you frame it that way,

1894
01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:37,639
Speaker 5: just say, hey, it's not in conference. It's a huge

1895
01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:40,800
Speaker 5: loss obviously a bad statement for us. Whatever. But he

1896
01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:44,599
Speaker 5: never takes on any of the water. It's always somebody

1897
01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:48,880
Speaker 5: else's fault. Is the problem here. The expectations are too high,

1898
01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:51,320
Speaker 5: part of his pressure. And there was no really good

1899
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:54,200
Speaker 5: audio and this is this is laughable here, right because

1900
01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:56,000
Speaker 5: the bois and pens are out and left and right,

1901
01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,960
Speaker 5: and everybody was mad that no players were available. And

1902
01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:03,000
Speaker 5: then they did a really bad job of capturing other

1903
01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:07,879
Speaker 5: than quotes as they're texting them out on X his

1904
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:11,080
Speaker 5: his audio, because he did talk about expectations and how

1905
01:30:11,200 --> 01:30:14,240
Speaker 5: you know, some players it's been hard for them, like

1906
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,639
Speaker 5: who are you referring to there? Like the follow ups

1907
01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 5: like what for Caleb Williams it's been hard because he

1908
01:30:20,040 --> 01:30:23,400
Speaker 5: was the Heisman Trophy winner and came back. Is it

1909
01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:26,360
Speaker 5: you know the defenders that were supposed to step into

1910
01:30:26,360 --> 01:30:29,400
Speaker 5: big spots? Is it your coaching staff How about you, Lincoln.

1911
01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:34,120
Speaker 5: Is it you that expectations being too high as a problem.

1912
01:30:34,240 --> 01:30:37,320
Speaker 5: Bucky I you know you called on when you're coaching.

1913
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:39,719
Speaker 5: You know you're supposed to be a leader. This guy

1914
01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:42,000
Speaker 5: does a tap dance anytime there's adversity.

1915
01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:45,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does.

1916
01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:50,479
Speaker 4: And it's sad. I'll say this because the team is

1917
01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:53,439
Speaker 4: a reflection of the coach. And when you don't allow

1918
01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:57,080
Speaker 4: your team to talk to the media after taking a

1919
01:30:57,080 --> 01:31:00,719
Speaker 4: whooping to me, that speaks volumes about the coaching staff.

1920
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,320
Speaker 3: You got to be able to take it.

1921
01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:05,320
Speaker 4: When you win, just like when you lose, and you

1922
01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:07,040
Speaker 4: got to be able to stand up to give answers

1923
01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:09,400
Speaker 4: because other people have jobs to do. To me, because

1924
01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:12,200
Speaker 4: sickness and this has to be a conversation. Hey man,

1925
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 4: they got to stand at the podium and talk about what. Yeah,

1926
01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:20,080
Speaker 4: we have a ton of people here that want to

1927
01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:24,679
Speaker 4: know from them. So to me, he has to teach

1928
01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:28,280
Speaker 4: them that by making them conduct that is I mean,

1929
01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:29,280
Speaker 4: this is a ported to deal.

1930
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:33,240
Speaker 2: Lincoln. What was the reason why you wouldn't let them

1931
01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:34,800
Speaker 2: talk to the media. I mean you hit them in

1932
01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:37,360
Speaker 2: the locker room. Why well, what could they possibly say?

1933
01:31:37,479 --> 01:31:40,560
Speaker 5: Well, they might they might throw him under the bus.

1934
01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:45,000
Speaker 2: And plays out there that doesn't make any legitimately.

1935
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:46,840
Speaker 5: I mean, they might get asked the one question and

1936
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:49,439
Speaker 5: give an honest answer about where the coaching staff is.

1937
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 5: I mean, you got rumors of Riley even before this

1938
01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:55,599
Speaker 5: last week with the Dan Patrick stuff of hey, you know,

1939
01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 5: I'm at that point maybe I need something different. You know,

1940
01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:04,679
Speaker 5: he talking about is coaching mortality whatever. But certainly people saying, well,

1941
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:07,479
Speaker 5: the you know, the high octane and NFL, et cetera.

1942
01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:10,320
Speaker 5: That may maybe you get one of the players that

1943
01:32:10,360 --> 01:32:13,000
Speaker 5: gives an honest response to some of those reports.

1944
01:32:13,080 --> 01:32:14,960
Speaker 2: Let's see what the conference does. If they find them,

1945
01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:16,920
Speaker 2: we'll do something about that. Let's see what kind of

1946
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:17,720
Speaker 2: backbone they have.

1947
01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:19,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just thought it was really sad. But let

1948
01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:21,880
Speaker 5: me ask you this, Bucky. I'll start with you. Andy,

1949
01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:24,360
Speaker 5: be ready for this one. They added this in the

1950
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:28,320
Speaker 5: graphics when the game was going on, talking about Caleb

1951
01:32:28,320 --> 01:32:31,160
Speaker 5: Williams and the dominance. And obviously when you play top

1952
01:32:31,200 --> 01:32:34,280
Speaker 5: teams you expect a bit of a regression, you expect

1953
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,320
Speaker 5: it to be a bit of a slog, right, But

1954
01:32:36,560 --> 01:32:40,360
Speaker 5: against non top twenty five teams, twenty three starts seventy

1955
01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:44,639
Speaker 5: percent completions three seventeen through the air per game, seventy

1956
01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:49,200
Speaker 5: eight touchdowns against, seven picks against top twenty five teams. Now,

1957
01:32:49,200 --> 01:32:53,080
Speaker 5: obviously a small sample size. Fifty one point four percent

1958
01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:57,320
Speaker 5: completion rate, one hundred seventy two yards per game, six touchdowns,

1959
01:32:57,360 --> 01:32:59,680
Speaker 5: six picks. Bucky, What do I make with that? Is

1960
01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:01,920
Speaker 5: that just noise? Do I parse through and just try

1961
01:33:01,960 --> 01:33:04,760
Speaker 5: to just push that aside and just say, look at

1962
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:08,519
Speaker 5: the talent and what he is physically and where you

1963
01:33:08,520 --> 01:33:12,040
Speaker 5: know the you can capitalize on who he is? Or

1964
01:33:12,040 --> 01:33:14,320
Speaker 5: do I have to take some of that five game

1965
01:33:14,360 --> 01:33:16,679
Speaker 5: sample into stock and really scrutinize that.

1966
01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:23,280
Speaker 4: You know, when I sit here and I think you

1967
01:33:23,360 --> 01:33:25,200
Speaker 4: have to take stock in it. I think you have

1968
01:33:25,240 --> 01:33:27,840
Speaker 4: to treat people as they are. You have to take

1969
01:33:27,880 --> 01:33:30,479
Speaker 4: them at face value, and if those issues, if those

1970
01:33:30,520 --> 01:33:32,120
Speaker 4: things are persistent, I think you have to kind of

1971
01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:35,759
Speaker 4: take it like that. To me, I think we'd everything

1972
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:38,800
Speaker 4: because we'll talk some more about the pros and all that.

1973
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:42,200
Speaker 4: I think it's modeling the stuff that you want to see.

1974
01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:44,600
Speaker 4: And I think the teams that are tough minded, the

1975
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:48,000
Speaker 4: teams that have a grittiness to them, they don't back

1976
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:50,280
Speaker 4: down from challenges on or off the field, and so

1977
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:53,840
Speaker 4: to me, all of this is about like setting the

1978
01:33:53,840 --> 01:33:55,960
Speaker 4: standard and living up to that standard when it comes

1979
01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:58,519
Speaker 4: to that toughness that you need to see. So if

1980
01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:00,479
Speaker 4: you do it off the field, it'll take everlf on

1981
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:02,479
Speaker 4: the field. But you gotta be stand up people.

1982
01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:05,800
Speaker 2: Let me say this about Caleb Williams. If I may

1983
01:34:06,360 --> 01:34:08,720
Speaker 2: last year, I think you would agree that he exceeded

1984
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:10,880
Speaker 2: all the hype in that first season, and he won

1985
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:13,720
Speaker 2: the Heisman Trophy. Okay, and he was presumed to be

1986
01:34:13,760 --> 01:34:16,120
Speaker 2: the number one overall pick in the NFL draft. Okay,

1987
01:34:16,360 --> 01:34:18,200
Speaker 2: And now you give me the statistics what he's done

1988
01:34:18,200 --> 01:34:20,880
Speaker 2: against teams whatever it may be. Unfortunately, because of the

1989
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:24,280
Speaker 2: mismanagement there at USC because of bad defense, you know

1990
01:34:24,479 --> 01:34:26,200
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a problem. He's not going to play

1991
01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:28,479
Speaker 2: in a big bowl game this year. But I will

1992
01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:30,719
Speaker 2: say this, take those stats, throw them out the window,

1993
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:33,920
Speaker 2: because I'll go back and remember Patrick Mahomes. He planned

1994
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:36,920
Speaker 2: on a losing team at Texas Tech in his senior year, right,

1995
01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,320
Speaker 2: losing team, and look where he's at now. So I

1996
01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:41,160
Speaker 2: don't think that means anything. What do you think Buck?

1997
01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:44,360
Speaker 4: Eventually, like, you gotta be a winning games, like the

1998
01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:46,479
Speaker 4: most important job of the quarterback is to guide your

1999
01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:49,120
Speaker 4: team to the winner circle. And so you check out

2000
01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:51,600
Speaker 4: how he does from a management standpoint, you ask the

2001
01:34:51,720 --> 01:34:56,479
Speaker 4: questions about his preparation process, his ability to be a leader.

2002
01:34:56,479 --> 01:34:59,920
Speaker 4: Does he hold people accountable? Is he accountable to his teammates?

2003
01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:03,360
Speaker 4: All those things matter, the intangible qualities. Then you cannot

2004
01:35:03,439 --> 01:35:07,120
Speaker 4: lose sight of the way that he performed this year

2005
01:35:07,200 --> 01:35:10,000
Speaker 4: compared to last year. The difference in my mind when

2006
01:35:10,040 --> 01:35:12,600
Speaker 4: I look at him, he's doing too much. He was

2007
01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:15,639
Speaker 4: trying to do too much. Maybe it's the supporting cast

2008
01:35:15,680 --> 01:35:17,800
Speaker 4: around him, but he was trying to do too much.

2009
01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:21,599
Speaker 4: Sometimes these guys in their final season, after reading about

2010
01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:25,559
Speaker 4: the Kuipers and Daniel Jeremiah's and all the reports on them,

2011
01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:29,040
Speaker 4: they try to prove to those guys that they can

2012
01:35:29,240 --> 01:35:30,280
Speaker 4: do whatever it is.

2013
01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 3: They're weaknesses that have been cited.

2014
01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:36,559
Speaker 4: So sometimes that clouset, well, he's number one in my estimation.

2015
01:35:37,439 --> 01:35:40,240
Speaker 4: It wouldn't have to take somebody having a remarkable season.

2016
01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:43,960
Speaker 4: Drake May had his own struggles last night against Virginia.

2017
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:46,439
Speaker 4: They all do, and in fact, I actually relish those

2018
01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:50,680
Speaker 4: opportunities to see them struggle because that's more like what

2019
01:35:50,720 --> 01:35:52,720
Speaker 4: the NFL is going to be like, So how do

2020
01:35:52,760 --> 01:35:54,680
Speaker 4: you bounce back for those poor moments? How do you

2021
01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,240
Speaker 4: bounce back from interceptions and all of that stuff? To me,

2022
01:35:58,320 --> 01:36:00,479
Speaker 4: it tells you a lot about who players.

2023
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, just curious as we go forward, right, because with

2024
01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 5: all the speculation, and I say this for all NFL

2025
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:11,200
Speaker 5: fans out there, you know, the tanking or rolling towards

2026
01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:13,000
Speaker 5: Caleb Williams, whatever you want to call it, it's like,

2027
01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:16,040
Speaker 5: sometimes your team just stinks and it's not that they're

2028
01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:19,200
Speaker 5: you know, trying to actively tank, right, Okay, we just

2029
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:21,479
Speaker 5: need to get through that. The other ones in Chicago.

2030
01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:24,240
Speaker 5: It's been a big topic of conversation obviously for the

2031
01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:26,519
Speaker 5: last couple of weeks. What do you do with Justin Fields?

2032
01:36:26,640 --> 01:36:29,439
Speaker 5: I heard Andy, you're talking about Atlanta a little bit earlier,

2033
01:36:29,600 --> 01:36:32,800
Speaker 5: a number of former Bears raising their hands, going, how's

2034
01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:36,000
Speaker 5: Caleb Williams going to be any better here than Justin Fields?

2035
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:36,160
Speaker 4: Is?

2036
01:36:36,560 --> 01:36:41,000
Speaker 5: So we're gonna reset and then try to get draft

2037
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:45,840
Speaker 5: picks right at all these other positions while restarting with

2038
01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:49,040
Speaker 5: the quarterback and probably a new coaching staff and probably

2039
01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:51,519
Speaker 5: and just and so on and so on. Kind of

2040
01:36:51,520 --> 01:36:53,800
Speaker 5: like those old commercials, right and you tell a friend,

2041
01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:55,720
Speaker 5: and you tell a friend and whatever. And so I

2042
01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:57,920
Speaker 5: thought it was interesting that one by one you're starting

2043
01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:01,000
Speaker 5: to see a lot of ex bears least raising their

2044
01:37:01,040 --> 01:37:03,240
Speaker 5: hand and going, all right, tell me this for this team,

2045
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 5: How this reset really works to make this team better

2046
01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:08,640
Speaker 5: in the short term.

2047
01:37:09,200 --> 01:37:10,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, you know.

2048
01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:13,040
Speaker 4: I mean when I look at them, like the talent

2049
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:16,080
Speaker 4: and those things, but the same guys that pick some

2050
01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:18,080
Speaker 4: of the players on the roster are gonna be picking.

2051
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:18,599
Speaker 3: The new players.

2052
01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:21,080
Speaker 4: And if you don't have confidence that they can pick

2053
01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:22,320
Speaker 4: the players, then what are we doing?

2054
01:37:22,720 --> 01:37:24,880
Speaker 3: You know? And I know it's you know, part of

2055
01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:25,160
Speaker 3: it is.

2056
01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:29,080
Speaker 4: Our part the cottage industry in terms of mock drafting,

2057
01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:32,719
Speaker 4: and that stuff has made everyone feel like a pseudo GM.

2058
01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,240
Speaker 4: And based on how you've performed with your fantasy teams,

2059
01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:37,960
Speaker 4: we all think that we can pick the right players,

2060
01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:40,240
Speaker 4: put the right combination together and the team and go win.

2061
01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:43,840
Speaker 4: It's a lot harder to make to turn those those

2062
01:37:43,960 --> 01:37:46,840
Speaker 4: picks into players, and I think we're seeing that.

2063
01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:48,440
Speaker 3: So that's why I'm really fascinated.

2064
01:37:48,479 --> 01:37:50,040
Speaker 4: They may have the top two picks in the draft

2065
01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:52,400
Speaker 4: who they don't take they're talking about taking. I'm gona

2066
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:54,439
Speaker 4: take a quarterback and wide receiver. That's great, But the

2067
01:37:54,479 --> 01:37:56,840
Speaker 4: meat and potatoes of your team are the offensive and

2068
01:37:56,880 --> 01:37:59,559
Speaker 4: defensive lines. The teams that are at the top, the

2069
01:37:59,640 --> 01:38:03,639
Speaker 4: Lion to Niners to Eagles, they dominate at the point

2070
01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:06,479
Speaker 4: of attack the Chiefs, so to me, like it depends

2071
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:08,640
Speaker 4: on how you build your team. If you're building it

2072
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:11,080
Speaker 4: to win the clicks, yeah, you get all the sexy stuff,

2073
01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:12,559
Speaker 4: but if you're trying to build it the right way,

2074
01:38:12,880 --> 01:38:15,160
Speaker 4: they need to invest in the front lines because that's

2075
01:38:15,160 --> 01:38:17,120
Speaker 4: where games are ultimately won and lost.

2076
01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,640
Speaker 5: There you got gotta get them in the trenches, and

2077
01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:24,599
Speaker 5: which is why we're big supporters of offensive line play,

2078
01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:26,680
Speaker 5: which is one of the major reasons that we've had

2079
01:38:26,680 --> 01:38:29,080
Speaker 5: a disastrous first six weeks in terms of what it's

2080
01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:31,880
Speaker 5: done to my eyeballs. Watching the National Football League. He's

2081

Speaker 5: Football League, a couple of big ones on tap, and

2096
01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:17,599
Speaker 5: we'll start with a team that's reeling with some injuries.

2097
01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:19,719
Speaker 5: How do they respond? We'll talk about it next here

2098
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:27,240
Speaker 5: on Fox Welcome back in Fox Sports Radios, Fox Football

2099
01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:32,080
Speaker 5: Sunday Live Fromthetirac dot Com Studios. I'm by Carmen alongside me,

2100
01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:34,920
Speaker 5: Andy Furman, Bucky Brooks having a blast with you as

2101
01:39:34,960 --> 01:39:37,479
Speaker 5: we get ready in earnest for week seven already of

2102
01:39:37,560 --> 01:39:40,840
Speaker 5: this National Football League. For all you fantasy players, I

2103
01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:43,080
Speaker 5: means we get a little bit of a reprieve. Nobody's

2104
01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:46,320
Speaker 5: been sent to London or Germany or person known to

2105
01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:49,160
Speaker 5: play football games early this morning, so maybe you're sleeping

2106
01:39:49,160 --> 01:39:51,400
Speaker 5: in a little bit and just waking up. Remember six

2107
01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:57,320
Speaker 5: teams on BIZ as you set your fantasy teams, Cincinnati, Tennessee, Carolina, Dallas,

2108
01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 5: the New York Football Jets, and the Houston. So I'll

2109
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:04,080
Speaker 5: start with this. I mean your team already played Bucky

2110
01:40:04,400 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 5: Thursday Night Football. We'll get into Derek Carr and the

2111
01:40:07,920 --> 01:40:11,400
Speaker 5: mess that is New Orleans right now next hour. Uh

2112
01:40:11,439 --> 01:40:14,320
Speaker 5: and Andy the the Bengals are off today. What are

2113
01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:15,679
Speaker 5: you guys gonna do with your Sundays?

2114
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:18,120
Speaker 2: I may pick weeds.

2115
01:40:19,320 --> 01:40:21,640
Speaker 5: He went to picking weeds, Bucky.

2116
01:40:23,120 --> 01:40:25,519
Speaker 2: I tell you what, I have a choice of picking weeds,

2117
01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:28,439
Speaker 2: which my wife would want me to do, or watch

2118
01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:31,320
Speaker 2: the Giants play the Commanders picking weeds.

2119
01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:34,640
Speaker 5: You don't like some Tarad Taylor action.

2120
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:39,880
Speaker 2: Oh please, I would watch if Barkley was playing.

2121
01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:41,760
Speaker 5: Now, that might have been the best. Like, we need

2122
01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:44,920
Speaker 5: to chop that off for a drop going forward. Mark,

2123
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:48,200
Speaker 5: So make sure you mark that one. That that excited

2124
01:40:48,360 --> 01:40:52,000
Speaker 5: exasperated utterance. No, that was great, because that that is

2125
01:40:52,040 --> 01:40:54,919
Speaker 5: the that is the response of a lot of football

2126
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:58,040
Speaker 5: fans coming off Saturday night, and certainly off what we'll

2127
01:40:58,080 --> 01:40:59,400
Speaker 5: see here a little bit.

2128
01:41:00,040 --> 01:41:01,479
Speaker 2: I know this, I told us the Buck, I get

2129
01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:04,760
Speaker 2: my football phil on Saturday. The competition is better and

2130
01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:07,439
Speaker 2: there's more of a rooting interest. It really is. I mean,

2131
01:41:07,479 --> 01:41:10,200
Speaker 2: there's only two or three handful of games that are great,

2132
01:41:10,560 --> 01:41:12,960
Speaker 2: and most of them are the ones we hadn't touched yet.

2133
01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:15,080
Speaker 2: Think about that. Those are the best games of the

2134
01:41:15,160 --> 01:41:17,439
Speaker 2: other day. But I think the Browns Cults is a

2135
01:41:17,439 --> 01:41:18,200
Speaker 2: pretty good one too.

2136
01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:21,920
Speaker 5: That one's getting really interesting. Young Patrick, you know who

2137
01:41:21,920 --> 01:41:25,240
Speaker 5: gave you bottom barrel betting or executive producer today, he

2138
01:41:25,320 --> 01:41:29,040
Speaker 5: had a fantasy quandary, and he's got his guy because

2139
01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:32,280
Speaker 5: he roots for the Seahawks. So he's got DK Metcalf

2140
01:41:32,479 --> 01:41:34,720
Speaker 5: who's been painted as a malcontent, who's now on the

2141
01:41:34,720 --> 01:41:39,599
Speaker 5: injury report and has myriad things going to game time decision,

2142
01:41:39,800 --> 01:41:43,519
Speaker 5: or he's got Jerome Ford and Bucky. I'll go to you.

2143
01:41:43,600 --> 01:41:45,800
Speaker 5: I mean generally for me, I look, I like my

2144
01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:49,920
Speaker 5: PPR guys or whatever, but I'll go touches over target

2145
01:41:50,040 --> 01:41:53,080
Speaker 5: almost every time. And I got a guy who's probably

2146
01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:56,040
Speaker 5: gonna earn the Lions share against the Colts here with

2147
01:41:57,040 --> 01:41:58,040
Speaker 5: Kareem Hunt dailing.

2148
01:42:02,840 --> 01:42:04,400
Speaker 4: You know, when I think about Kareem Hunt, I just

2149
01:42:04,400 --> 01:42:08,559
Speaker 4: think about someone who's physical enough to be able to

2150
01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:12,040
Speaker 4: do those things because we think about the running game,

2151
01:42:12,120 --> 01:42:14,640
Speaker 4: and we think about like what is needed has to

2152
01:42:14,640 --> 01:42:17,920
Speaker 4: be a tough guy in the mix. And like Mike,

2153
01:42:17,960 --> 01:42:21,360
Speaker 4: we talked about the Browns earlier in the segment about

2154
01:42:21,400 --> 01:42:23,960
Speaker 4: like the talent in Swartze and uh you got and

2155
01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:26,160
Speaker 4: he doesn't believe in Swartze. He doesn't think that he's

2156
01:42:26,200 --> 01:42:28,920
Speaker 4: anything as a as a tactician or.

2157
01:42:29,479 --> 01:42:32,200
Speaker 3: Just kind of shows up. He shows up, rolls out

2158
01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:34,160
Speaker 3: the ball as the Wilson just claps his hands on

2159
01:42:34,200 --> 01:42:34,920
Speaker 3: the sideline.

2160
01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:39,040
Speaker 4: But this brown this Browns team, when when, when they're going,

2161
01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:41,800
Speaker 4: they still need to have that element. So Kareem Hunt

2162
01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:44,799
Speaker 4: being able to run the football, it allows him, particularly

2163
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:46,960
Speaker 4: if Deshaun Watson is playing or if he's off the

2164
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,280
Speaker 4: mark like he's been, it allows him to continue to

2165
01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:51,600
Speaker 4: sustain their offense to their defense, can set them up.

2166
01:42:51,640 --> 01:42:52,280
Speaker 5: It's good to see.

2167
01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:56,719
Speaker 2: Come on, now there you go. What you said, you said,

2168
01:42:56,840 --> 01:43:00,320
Speaker 2: you said, you said, and I know you do you

2169
01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:01,600
Speaker 2: feel it.

2170
01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:06,080
Speaker 4: I'm not a Browns fan, don't. I don't have a

2171
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,120
Speaker 4: dog in a fight. I just I just find it funny.

2172
01:43:08,120 --> 01:43:11,120
Speaker 4: You're like, hey, he's just a product of the people.

2173
01:43:11,280 --> 01:43:13,720
Speaker 5: I just like that. He went, he said, I'm not

2174
01:43:13,800 --> 01:43:16,000
Speaker 5: a Browns fan. I don't have a dog in the fight.

2175
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:19,760
Speaker 5: Come on, that's funny. That's unintended comedy right there.

2176
01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:21,519
Speaker 3: That is that is funny.

2177
01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:23,599
Speaker 4: It would be better if I have flashed your new logo,

2178
01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:27,519
Speaker 4: if we had that kind of flashing up, like the

2179
01:43:27,520 --> 01:43:30,479
Speaker 4: bat bat signal with the dog.

2180
01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:33,320
Speaker 5: But yeah, I'll take that elf all day long. That

2181
01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:34,080
Speaker 5: guy's my hero.

2182
01:43:34,360 --> 01:43:34,559

2188
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:51,720
Speaker 5: need to channel. But first to give us the information

2189
01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:54,920
Speaker 5: that might help color our opinions on the day ahead,

2190
01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:57,400
Speaker 5: let's kick it over to our guy, Kevin Wired for

2191
01:43:57,640 --> 01:44:01,519
Speaker 5: the two minute drill. Yeah, the Steelers activating Deontay Johnson

2192
01:44:01,560 --> 01:44:04,479
Speaker 5: for today's game against the Rams. However, Pat Fryarmouth is

2193
01:44:04,520 --> 01:44:07,160
Speaker 5: going to injured reserve so little without their tight end.

2194
01:44:07,200 --> 01:44:09,760
Speaker 5: As for the Rams side of things, it'll be Royce

2195
01:44:09,800 --> 01:44:12,719
Speaker 5: Freeman and Darryl Henderson getting a bulk of the snaps.

2196
01:44:12,720 --> 01:44:16,439
Speaker 5: That's according to Adam Schefter. Kyron Williams hitting on ir

2197
01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:21,280
Speaker 5: so it'll be uh, Freeman and Henderson at taking a

2198
01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:25,439
Speaker 5: bulk of the carries. As for other injury news, we

2199
01:44:25,479 --> 01:44:28,240
Speaker 5: were talking about DK Metcalfe and Rappaport saying he will

2200
01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:31,040
Speaker 5: be a game time decision. He's been dealing with ribbon

2201
01:44:31,160 --> 01:44:33,720
Speaker 5: hip injuries and they want to test him out to

2202
01:44:33,720 --> 01:44:35,240
Speaker 5: see if he will be able to go. Same for

2203
01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:39,360
Speaker 5: Charger safety Derwin James. He hurt his ankle Thursday during practice.

2204
01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:41,920
Speaker 5: He didn't practice on all on Friday, so he will

2205
01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:43,639
Speaker 5: be a game time decision and they want to test

2206
01:44:43,640 --> 01:44:46,120
Speaker 5: out that ankle to see if he will be good

2207
01:44:46,240 --> 01:44:50,519
Speaker 5: to go. Lion's running back Craig Reynolds is questionable due

2208
01:44:50,560 --> 01:44:53,280
Speaker 5: to a hamstring and toe injury. However, he is expected

2209
01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:56,320
Speaker 5: to be on the field against the Ravens. That's an

2210
01:44:56,479 --> 01:44:58,719
Speaker 5: ESPN report there. He has been also saying Browns running

2211
01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:02,040
Speaker 5: back Kareem Hunt will be tested in pregame warmups to

2212
01:45:02,080 --> 01:45:05,519
Speaker 5: determine if he can play. Against the Colts. He has

2213
01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:09,040
Speaker 5: a strained thigh and Cleveland is concerned about his availability.

2214
01:45:09,360 --> 01:45:12,479
Speaker 5: Packer's running back Aaron Jones is questionable with a hamstring injury.

2215
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:16,640
Speaker 5: He is expected to play against the Broncos. The Eagles

2216
01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:20,479
Speaker 5: elevating recently signed wide receiver Julio Jones the active roster

2217
01:45:20,560 --> 01:45:24,639
Speaker 5: that was expected, so he'll be in tonight against the Dolphins.

2218
01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:26,280
Speaker 5: As for the forty nine ers of their game tomorrow,

2219
01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:28,040
Speaker 5: Deebo Samuel not gonna be in. He's gonna miss a

2220
01:45:28,040 --> 01:45:31,280
Speaker 5: couple of weeks with a fractured shoulder. Christian McCaffrey officially

2221
01:45:31,360 --> 01:45:32,439
Speaker 5: listed asked questionable.

2222
01:45:32,439 --> 01:45:33,160
Speaker 2: Earlier in the week.

2223
01:45:33,360 --> 01:45:35,240
Speaker 5: They were optimistic that he might be able to play,

2224
01:45:35,280 --> 01:45:37,320
Speaker 5: so no word yet on whether he's gonna go or not,

2225
01:45:37,360 --> 01:45:42,200
Speaker 5: but he's been dealing with an oblique injury. And just

2226
01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:46,679
Speaker 5: for tonight a non football event the ALCS game six

2227
01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:49,880
Speaker 5: Astros and Texas Rangers that will take place tonight on

2228
01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:52,880
Speaker 5: FS one back to you guys, thanks so much, Kevin,

2229
01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:54,400
Speaker 5: appreciate you.

2230
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:58,360
Speaker 2: Michael, excuse me, Swollen, I didn't hear mention anything about

2231
01:45:58,360 --> 01:46:00,880
Speaker 2: your favorite team to chicage up Bear studying the new

2232
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:01,799
Speaker 2: quarterback today.

2233
01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:04,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's old news with Tyson bag in at

2234
01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:06,559
Speaker 5: this point. Yeah, I got to see a little more

2235
01:46:06,560 --> 01:46:07,960
Speaker 5: on the on the deep throw, he met a couple

2236
01:46:07,960 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 5: of throws out to Scott, then he hit DJ Moore

2237
01:46:11,280 --> 01:46:14,600
Speaker 5: over the middle, and the shot that everybody saw was

2238
01:46:14,680 --> 01:46:18,400
Speaker 5: the pop gun bailout thing that got picked off to

2239
01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:21,680
Speaker 5: end that game. Yeah, it's a curiosity. I like the

2240
01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:24,280
Speaker 5: guy's attitude, like he was the first guy of the

2241
01:46:24,320 --> 01:46:26,200
Speaker 5: Bears at all this year to go up with any

2242
01:46:26,240 --> 01:46:29,080
Speaker 5: conviction in front of a microphone, be it the GM,

2243
01:46:29,200 --> 01:46:33,000
Speaker 5: the coach, the other quarterback, or anybody else. So I

2244
01:46:33,040 --> 01:46:35,720
Speaker 5: thought that was kind of refreshing to just say, look,

2245
01:46:35,720 --> 01:46:38,959
Speaker 5: I've got a huge opportunity. It's on my shoulders and

2246
01:46:38,960 --> 01:46:41,280
Speaker 5: and you know, it's the thing you dream of. I

2247
01:46:41,520 --> 01:46:43,439
Speaker 5: gotta make the most of it or it's you know,

2248
01:46:43,560 --> 01:46:47,120
Speaker 5: it goes away right, Very very honest, very blunt in

2249
01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:49,439
Speaker 5: his assessment of things. Just remember a lot we were

2250
01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:52,920
Speaker 5: just talking about the Cleveland Browns. Remember PJ. Walker, who

2251
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:55,280
Speaker 5: beat the forty nine ers last week, was originally their

2252
01:46:55,320 --> 01:46:58,960
Speaker 5: backup in Chicago. This year just started out there. In

2253
01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:02,479
Speaker 5: terms of personnel decisions and stuff you're doing when you're

2254
01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:07,200
Speaker 5: trying to evaluate everybody top to bottom. Like Bucky said before, right,

2255
01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:10,439
Speaker 5: who's picking the groceries and what you're doing? No, that game,

2256
01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:15,640
Speaker 5: I mean Brian Hoyer against Tyson Bagen. Now I'm the

2257
01:47:15,680 --> 01:47:18,120
Speaker 5: guy that's gonna watch that game, so you don't have to.

2258
01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:20,960
Speaker 2: That's I go to a Broadway show see of the

2259
01:47:21,040 --> 01:47:22,560
Speaker 2: understudies really well.

2260
01:47:22,320 --> 01:47:24,920
Speaker 5: But I mean they're still you know, they're still pretty good.

2261
01:47:25,080 --> 01:47:27,360
Speaker 5: Like I mean, look, I guess if I got suckered in,

2262
01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:29,280
Speaker 5: like say, I wanted to go see The Music Man

2263
01:47:29,600 --> 01:47:32,760
Speaker 5: when it was on Broadway and the revival, and and

2264
01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:36,599
Speaker 5: Sutton Foster wasn't there, or God forbid, Hugh Jackman took

2265
01:47:36,680 --> 01:47:38,519
Speaker 5: the day off. Yeah, I mean, I love me some

2266
01:47:38,640 --> 01:47:40,640
Speaker 5: Hugh Jackman. I would have been a little upset. But

2267
01:47:40,680 --> 01:47:43,800
Speaker 5: in the end, I'm still getting quality entertainment. I don't

2268
01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:47,080
Speaker 5: know that I'm getting quality entertainment from two guys where

2269
01:47:47,080 --> 01:47:48,760
Speaker 5: the over under has been pushed all the way down

2270
01:47:48,800 --> 01:47:53,640
Speaker 5: to like thirty six and a half. Welcome to the

2271
01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:57,080
Speaker 5: NFL Week seven guests. Last year, we had about seventy

2272
01:47:57,080 --> 01:48:01,960
Speaker 5: five quarterbacks take snaps as starters. We're getting there again already.

2273
01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:04,360
Speaker 5: As we get to the midpoint of this season. All right,

2274
01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:06,800
Speaker 5: let's go to the games. Let's get one in Chargers

2275
01:48:06,840 --> 01:48:10,280
Speaker 5: at Chiefs. All right, Chiefs five or five and a half,

2276
01:48:10,320 --> 01:48:12,760
Speaker 5: depending where you're looking at. If this is a game

2277
01:48:12,800 --> 01:48:15,920
Speaker 5: that's really intriguing. You heard Kevin Wiret add the fact

2278
01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:18,639
Speaker 5: that Derwin James is once again on the injury list.

2279
01:48:19,479 --> 01:48:22,960
Speaker 5: Everybody had that on their bingo cards. I'm sure his

2280
01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:26,320
Speaker 5: availability long an issue for that secondary and it really

2281
01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:29,640
Speaker 5: changes up what they're able to do. They've been eviscerated

2282
01:48:29,680 --> 01:48:33,160
Speaker 5: by opposing passing games, and I guess that's the curiosity here.

2283
01:48:33,400 --> 01:48:36,280
Speaker 5: Still waiting for the explosion from the Chiefs. They brought

2284
01:48:36,320 --> 01:48:39,559
Speaker 5: back me Kaul Hartman from the Jets. How do they

2285
01:48:39,640 --> 01:48:42,160
Speaker 5: get this thing going? Will the offense get going? And

2286
01:48:42,280 --> 01:48:46,280
Speaker 5: kin Justin Herbert actually win a big game for them? Here? Andy,

2287
01:48:46,320 --> 01:48:47,160
Speaker 5: I go to you first.

2288
01:48:47,439 --> 01:48:49,439
Speaker 2: All right? You know, Kansas City has won five in

2289
01:48:49,439 --> 01:48:52,599
Speaker 2: a row with avage or any sides of slowing down. However, However,

2290
01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:56,800
Speaker 2: the Chiefs have never scored less per game on offense

2291
01:48:57,040 --> 01:49:01,120
Speaker 2: through six games or a full season since Patrick Mahomes

2292
01:49:01,160 --> 01:49:04,759
Speaker 2: became their quarterback. Also, they have also never enjoyed larger

2293
01:49:04,800 --> 01:49:07,920
Speaker 2: average point differentials. Nine per eight per game because the

2294
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:10,599
Speaker 2: defense is so much better. The defense is carrying them

2295
01:49:10,680 --> 01:49:13,320
Speaker 2: right now. It's kind of the defensive thing followed by

2296
01:49:13,360 --> 01:49:16,280
Speaker 2: the offense. The pass offense should become a little bit better,

2297
01:49:16,479 --> 01:49:20,200
Speaker 2: more explosive. Why because Mahomes gets reps with the receivers.

2298
01:49:20,360 --> 01:49:22,360
Speaker 2: But I will tell you as much, they're a better team.

2299
01:49:23,400 --> 01:49:25,320
Speaker 2: They're a team that's going to the playoffs where they

2300
01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:27,200
Speaker 2: win it all. I don't know, but they will win today.

2301
01:49:30,600 --> 01:49:32,760
Speaker 3: Wow, I mean that's very impressive.

2302
01:49:33,160 --> 01:49:35,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, I mean, they're win today because I am

2303
01:49:35,280 --> 01:49:38,879
Speaker 4: confident that Brandon Statey would do something controversial.

2304
01:49:40,439 --> 01:49:42,680
Speaker 3: Analytics to give the game to the Chiefs. So yeah,

2305
01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:44,000
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the Chiefs in this one.

2306
01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:45,840
Speaker 5: I like that you just cut to the chase. It's

2307
01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:47,080
Speaker 5: all Brandon Staley.

2308
01:49:48,040 --> 01:49:51,599
Speaker 4: But he's gonna go forward inside the twenty because he

2309
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:55,000
Speaker 4: has belief in his quarterback and his quarterback as a dude,

2310
01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:56,040
Speaker 4: and then the defense and.

2311
01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:58,360
Speaker 2: Then maybe Lincoln Riley's job in a couple of weeks.

2312
01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:04,400
Speaker 5: Look at he's promoting Lincoln Riley. There now fourteen points

2313
01:50:04,400 --> 01:50:08,000
Speaker 5: seven points allowed per game for the Chiefs thus far second,

2314
01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:10,080
Speaker 5: and they're picking up guys off the scrap heap. If

2315
01:50:10,080 --> 01:50:11,479
Speaker 5: you want to get rid of them because your team

2316
01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:14,360
Speaker 5: is giving up and you don't like the players, Hey

2317
01:50:14,439 --> 01:50:16,640
Speaker 5: send them our way, right, You got that in the

2318
01:50:16,640 --> 01:50:18,920
Speaker 5: forty nine Ers, Well we'll just sit around and wait

2319
01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:21,680
Speaker 5: for you to cast guys off. Forty nine Ers pick

2320
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:25,400
Speaker 5: up Randy Gregory and then Frank Clark's coming home. Kind

2321
01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 5: of crazy, you keep adding on, but curious if before

2322
01:50:28,560 --> 01:50:31,120
Speaker 5: the trade deadline there's one more move for that chief

2323
01:50:31,160 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 5: offense buddy. Let me ask you this. We talked about

2324
01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:36,639
Speaker 5: it a little bit. Smith and I after that loss

2325
01:50:36,680 --> 01:50:39,960
Speaker 5: to the Cowboys with the Chargers, at what point do

2326
01:50:40,000 --> 01:50:43,080
Speaker 5: we start looking at Justin Herbert a little differently from

2327
01:50:43,080 --> 01:50:50,200
Speaker 5: his fourth quarter pursuits. Just talking about Justin Herbert and

2328
01:50:50,280 --> 01:50:53,960
Speaker 5: those opportunities to go and claim games late. And you know,

2329
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,679
Speaker 5: I know he's got some commercials. He's the fair haired

2330
01:50:56,680 --> 01:50:59,640
Speaker 5: boy and everybody loves him. But everyone's I'm raising my

2331
01:50:59,680 --> 01:51:03,400
Speaker 5: hand about those fourth quarter interceptions and drives that go awry.

2332
01:51:03,680 --> 01:51:05,679
Speaker 5: Yet it all goes back on Brandon Staley.

2333
01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:09,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, because Brandon stated puts so much faith in the quarterback.

2334
01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:11,720
Speaker 4: He's kind of built a quarterback cup to be a superhero.

2335
01:51:11,760 --> 01:51:13,960
Speaker 4: He talks about him being the dude, and we got.

2336
01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:15,599
Speaker 3: The dude and the dude and the dude and the dude,

2337
01:51:15,600 --> 01:51:16,840
Speaker 3: but the dude doesn't close it out.

2338
01:51:17,200 --> 01:51:21,599
Speaker 4: And you're right, that's the difference in good to great

2339
01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:23,120
Speaker 4: when it comes to those quarterbacks when we talk.

2340
01:51:23,080 --> 01:51:24,479
Speaker 3: About that elite category.

2341
01:51:24,520 --> 01:51:26,200
Speaker 4: He's a top five quarterback, right, we put him in

2342
01:51:26,240 --> 01:51:28,519
Speaker 4: the category, but there's a difference between what he does

2343
01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:31,760
Speaker 4: and what Pat Mahomes does. At some point, he has

2344
01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:33,840
Speaker 4: to put more pelts on the wall. He has to

2345
01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:36,439
Speaker 4: have some skins in the game when it comes to winning.

2346
01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:39,559
Speaker 4: So we can treat him like we talk about him,

2347
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:43,000
Speaker 4: like really revere him, like he's a top five quarterback,

2348
01:51:43,160 --> 01:51:45,280
Speaker 4: as opposed to just projecting based on the talent.

2349
01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:47,200
Speaker 5: I really thought you were going to start singing to

2350
01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:50,000
Speaker 5: do Doo Doo Di Die. You were going old police there,

2351
01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:52,920
Speaker 5: would you think, Andy Wurd going back to the early

2352
01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:54,439
Speaker 5: eighties when for a moment I.

2353
01:51:54,479 --> 01:51:56,720
Speaker 2: Was waiting, you know what you do? I look, I

2354
01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:58,799
Speaker 2: will say this about Justin Harber, but it's funny because

2355
01:51:59,280 --> 01:52:02,519
Speaker 2: there was a great arguments several years ago Joe Burrow

2356
01:52:02,600 --> 01:52:04,519
Speaker 2: or Justin Herbert. I think there's a great separation, right,

2357
01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:06,320
Speaker 2: now I think Borrow is leaving him in the dust.

2358
01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:09,160
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that. But Herbert's a great quarterback.

2359
01:52:09,280 --> 01:52:12,360
Speaker 2: But he's on a bad team. Bad team because coach badly.

2360
01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:14,360
Speaker 2: That's why he's on a bad team. I mean his

2361
01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,840
Speaker 2: percentage is like seventy seventy one percent completions. He's doing well,

2362
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:19,960
Speaker 2: he's a pasted over one thousand yards only one I

2363
01:52:20,160 --> 01:52:23,720
Speaker 2: int seven touchdowns. But there's something missing, and I think

2364
01:52:23,760 --> 01:52:26,479
Speaker 2: it's the offense that's that's running the show. I think

2365
01:52:26,479 --> 01:52:29,519
Speaker 2: it's the head coach. I think there's something wrong there. Look,

2366
01:52:29,680 --> 01:52:32,639
Speaker 2: I talked to Bucky about this earlier today about Trevor Lawrence.

2367
01:52:32,760 --> 01:52:34,760
Speaker 2: We all of a sudden now he's blossomed. Yeah, I

2368
01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:36,800
Speaker 2: know it takes time to grow in the NFL, but

2369
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:39,360
Speaker 2: he wasn't growing with Urban Meyer. He's growing now with

2370
01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:42,800
Speaker 2: Peterson as the coach, Right, Doug Peterson's changed changed it.

2371
01:52:42,880 --> 01:52:45,599
Speaker 2: Sometimes the coach will make the change. Don't you agree

2372
01:52:45,640 --> 01:52:47,840
Speaker 2: with that? Buck? If Justin Herbert got a new coach

2373
01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:49,280
Speaker 2: in there, things can go skyward.

2374
01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:51,160
Speaker 3: I mean it could.

2375
01:52:51,200 --> 01:52:52,679
Speaker 4: It has to be the great coach has to appeal

2376
01:52:52,720 --> 01:52:57,640
Speaker 4: to his personality in those things. But yeah, like I mean, ultimately,

2377
01:52:57,760 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 4: the coach says, the table says the st and for

2378
01:53:00,479 --> 01:53:03,840
Speaker 4: everybody in the building, and so a better coach could

2379
01:53:04,240 --> 01:53:06,000
Speaker 4: and should produce better results.

2380
01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:06,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2381
01:53:06,479 --> 01:53:08,880
Speaker 5: The other thing in just with the Chargers really quick,

2382
01:53:08,920 --> 01:53:11,040
Speaker 5: other than Keenan Allen, you need to find another option.

2383
01:53:11,439 --> 01:53:14,040
Speaker 5: You're not pushing the ball downfield. With Mike Williams being

2384
01:53:14,120 --> 01:53:17,479
Speaker 5: out once again, you know he's missed several games. He's

2385
01:53:17,479 --> 01:53:21,320
Speaker 5: still their second leading receiver in terms of receptions with nineteen.

2386
01:53:22,280 --> 01:53:26,200
Speaker 5: That's a problem and Austin Eckler being able to stay healthy.

2387
01:53:26,880 --> 01:53:29,519
Speaker 5: Problem two. Run game continues to sputter, even with the

2388
01:53:29,600 --> 01:53:33,240
Speaker 5: wonder kin Kellen Moore in tow we're live here for

2389
01:53:33,320 --> 01:53:35,599
Speaker 5: the ti Raq dot Com studios. A couple more games

2390
01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:39,120
Speaker 5: left to go, the big one coming up next. Yeah,

2391
01:53:39,120 --> 01:53:43,320
Speaker 5: that's right. Julio Jones is back. Does that mean anything?

2392
01:53:43,479 --> 01:53:45,840
Speaker 5: We'll talk about it on the other side here on

2400
01:54:13,360 --> 01:54:15,799
Speaker 5: is already underway. One game in the book, six teams

2401
01:54:15,840 --> 01:54:19,960
Speaker 5: on by Big Slate today, some snoozers. You starting to

2402
01:54:19,960 --> 01:54:23,760
Speaker 5: see the market react last week the Unders twelve two

2403
01:54:24,479 --> 01:54:27,120
Speaker 5: and one. So if you thought you were watching paint dry,

2404
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:30,080
Speaker 5: you were right. All right, we got two games left

2405
01:54:30,080 --> 01:54:31,679
Speaker 5: to go, fellas, let's get the next one.

2406
01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:34,240
Speaker 1: Dolphins aid egos, All right, here's one.

2407
01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:38,640
Speaker 5: Prime time grab your favorite beverage and snack of choice.

2408
01:54:38,960 --> 01:54:42,200
Speaker 5: Fifty one and a half by far the highest number

2409
01:54:42,240 --> 01:54:45,720
Speaker 5: on the board for over under Philly, anywhere from two

2410
01:54:45,800 --> 01:54:47,720
Speaker 5: and a half to three and a half, depending on

2411
01:54:47,760 --> 01:54:50,760
Speaker 5: where you're shopping. As I laid my head down to

2412
01:54:50,800 --> 01:54:54,920
Speaker 5: bed last night. For Miami, Howard with a groin injury

2413
01:54:55,040 --> 01:54:59,000
Speaker 5: is questionable. Philadelphia a bunch of guys that were limited

2414
01:54:59,040 --> 01:55:02,040
Speaker 5: in practice, but designation on the final reports when you're

2415
01:55:02,040 --> 01:55:04,520
Speaker 5: talking about Carter and Smith and God, it looks like

2416
01:55:04,560 --> 01:55:07,120
Speaker 5: they're gonna be able to go for Miami. A key edition.

2417
01:55:07,360 --> 01:55:12,120
Speaker 5: Jeff Wilson comes back into the fray behind Raheem Mostert,

2418
01:55:12,360 --> 01:55:16,160
Speaker 5: he's a pass catching specialist. Ie fantasy owners, if you

2419
01:55:16,280 --> 01:55:19,160
Speaker 5: need a flex worthy player, that might be a little

2420
01:55:19,160 --> 01:55:21,640
Speaker 5: guy you can go find on the waiver wire in

2421
01:55:21,680 --> 01:55:24,680
Speaker 5: your league because he's been out for a while. But Philadelphia,

2422
01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:27,680
Speaker 5: coming off the loss, you thought Jalen Hurts never played

2423
01:55:27,720 --> 01:55:32,720
Speaker 5: a game at quarterback and everything is wrong there. Miami. Look,

2424
01:55:32,760 --> 01:55:35,240
Speaker 5: they can get beat up a little bit on the

2425
01:55:35,280 --> 01:55:37,280
Speaker 5: in the ground game, and I gotta wonder if Philly

2426
01:55:37,280 --> 01:55:40,440
Speaker 5: goes back to form ground and pound and then Jalen

2427
01:55:40,520 --> 01:55:44,200
Speaker 5: Hurts just picks his spots. Try to get Devonte Smith

2428
01:55:44,320 --> 01:55:47,160
Speaker 5: back in alongside aj Brown, who's on a bit of

2429
01:55:47,200 --> 01:55:50,440
Speaker 5: a heater. Andy, what are you thinking to first?

2430
01:55:51,920 --> 01:55:55,600
Speaker 2: Okay, if I'm if I'm the Dolphins and I'm looking

2431
01:55:55,640 --> 01:55:57,800
Speaker 2: at that game that the Eagles played against the Jets.

2432
01:55:58,080 --> 01:56:01,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts struggled on the heavy pressure against the Jets.

2433
01:56:01,680 --> 01:56:04,200
Speaker 2: That was last week. He threw three interceptions. What do

2434
01:56:04,200 --> 01:56:06,240
Speaker 2: you think you're gonna do. They're gonna pressure the Eagle's

2435
01:56:06,240 --> 01:56:08,840
Speaker 2: gonna play physical, They're gonna run the football, and they're

2436
01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:11,560
Speaker 2: gonna pressure the quarterback. I'll tell you right now. I

2437
01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:14,080
Speaker 2: think some of the defenses have caught up with all

2438
01:56:14,120 --> 01:56:17,680
Speaker 2: the aspects that the Eagles scheme, they really do the Eagles.

2439
01:56:17,760 --> 01:56:20,760
Speaker 2: Right now, they're gaining more than fifteen yards on just

2440
01:56:20,760 --> 01:56:23,760
Speaker 2: eleven percent of pass places. That's down from twenty one

2441
01:56:23,760 --> 01:56:27,320
Speaker 2: percent through six games last year and ninety percent for

2442
01:56:27,400 --> 01:56:30,480
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two overall. So I think that defenses are

2443
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:33,800
Speaker 2: wising up to the Philadelphia Eagles, although I will tell

2444
01:56:33,800 --> 01:56:35,919
Speaker 2: you this much, I still think the Eagles have more personnel,

2445
01:56:36,040 --> 01:56:38,720
Speaker 2: better personnel. Eagles win this game, but it's gonna be

2446
01:56:38,720 --> 01:56:42,240
Speaker 2: a strug, gonna be a bloody game today. Hurts is

2447
01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:44,520
Speaker 2: gonna get pressure. He'll be pressure big time today.

2448
01:56:44,600 --> 01:56:46,920
Speaker 5: Bucky. How long is that learning curve when you bring

2449
01:56:46,920 --> 01:56:50,560
Speaker 5: in a new offensive coordinator Stike and being gone. We've

2450
01:56:50,560 --> 01:56:52,440
Speaker 5: been trying to excuse it for a while. At what

2451
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:54,400
Speaker 5: point is hey, there's problems.

2452
01:56:56,880 --> 01:56:58,800
Speaker 4: I mean, I think there's so many different things. It

2453
01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:01,720
Speaker 4: takes a little while for or a new offense coordinator

2454
01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:04,640
Speaker 4: to adjust to the personnel and the personnel to adjust to him.

2455
01:57:05,080 --> 01:57:06,640
Speaker 3: About half midway.

2456
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:09,360
Speaker 4: But I think even when you have the same coordinator,

2457
01:57:09,400 --> 01:57:11,880
Speaker 4: I think it takes about eight to nine games before

2458
01:57:11,880 --> 01:57:13,800
Speaker 4: you really know who your team is and then you

2459
01:57:13,800 --> 01:57:17,920
Speaker 4: can make calls accordingly, So the Madway point, we should

2460
01:57:17,960 --> 01:57:20,400
Speaker 4: we should be getting closer to seeing kind of the

2461
01:57:20,680 --> 01:57:22,160
Speaker 4: best of Philly on offense.

2462
01:57:22,440 --> 01:57:24,320
Speaker 5: What do you what do you think of Miami's Uh,

2463
01:57:24,840 --> 01:57:26,720
Speaker 5: when do you talk about the run defense?

2464
01:57:27,200 --> 01:57:27,400
Speaker 3: Yeah?

2465
01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:29,720
Speaker 5: They gets pressure and talking about the Jets last week

2466
01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:32,480
Speaker 5: they were down to what cornerbacks five six, seven, eight,

2467
01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:35,440
Speaker 5: like we were doing the Laverne and surely open. There

2468
01:57:35,440 --> 01:57:38,560
Speaker 5: you go. There's a nice timely reference for everybody. Shamil

2469
01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:45,000
Speaker 5: Shamalazel hasinfeff for incorporated. There you go?

2470
01:57:45,760 --> 01:57:49,200
Speaker 3: You did you did you get? Yeah?

2471
01:57:49,280 --> 01:57:51,120
Speaker 4: Like for the Eagles like this, this would be a

2472
01:57:51,160 --> 01:57:53,720
Speaker 4: tough matchup just because of the speed of the Dolphins.

2473
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:56,920
Speaker 4: Just puts everyone on the bond and the creative things

2474
01:57:56,920 --> 01:57:59,800
Speaker 4: they're doing in the run game, in the passing game, Uh.

2475
01:57:59,720 --> 01:58:00,840
Speaker 3: Put you undergun.

2476
01:58:01,160 --> 01:58:04,160
Speaker 4: I think this is when we'll see how the loss

2477
01:58:04,160 --> 01:58:06,720
Speaker 4: of Javon Hargrave and some of the other players that

2478
01:58:06,760 --> 01:58:09,320
Speaker 4: have kind of trickled out, how it impacts him. This

2479
01:58:09,360 --> 01:58:11,240
Speaker 4: is when I expect the Miami Dolphins to put up

2480
01:58:11,280 --> 01:58:11,600
Speaker 4: some points.

2481
01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:12,400
Speaker 3: I expect him to win.

2482
01:58:12,480 --> 01:58:14,680
Speaker 5: I do like the fact that Mike McDaniel was ready

2483
01:58:14,680 --> 01:58:17,520
Speaker 5: to fight that reporter and tear down his podium over

2484
01:58:17,640 --> 01:58:19,240
Speaker 5: thoughts of a system quarterback.

2485
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:19,720
Speaker 7: Eah.

2486
01:58:19,800 --> 01:58:22,240
Speaker 5: You know, sometimes you gotta show toughness. It's like the

2487
01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:25,960
Speaker 5: non venomous snake that flares out. He doesn't have much

2488
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:28,000
Speaker 5: of a bite, but he's gonna try to scare you

2489
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:30,800
Speaker 5: and make you believe he does. All right, final game of.

2490
01:58:30,760 --> 01:58:32,480
Speaker 1: The forty nine and Vikings.

2491
01:58:32,560 --> 01:58:35,320
Speaker 5: All right, here's one again, forty nine or six and

2492
01:58:35,320 --> 01:58:39,560
Speaker 5: a half point favorites on the road here at Minnesota.

2493
01:58:39,720 --> 01:58:43,720
Speaker 5: No Deebo Samuel. Game time for Christian McCaffrey with the

2494
01:58:43,720 --> 01:58:47,560
Speaker 5: oblique and just like Jalen Hurts, the critics came after

2495
01:58:47,640 --> 01:58:50,280
Speaker 5: brock Purty in a big way. You know, even though

2496
01:58:50,280 --> 01:58:52,520
Speaker 5: he didn't go out to kick that forty one yard

2497
01:58:52,600 --> 01:58:56,360
Speaker 5: field goal attempt, it's still his fault. Andy has start

2498
01:58:56,400 --> 01:58:56,640
Speaker 5: with you.

2499
01:58:57,440 --> 01:59:00,360
Speaker 2: The you take okay, you take something out of every game.

2500
01:59:00,360 --> 01:59:02,800
Speaker 2: We look that the jail and hurt situation, the deceptions

2501
01:59:02,840 --> 01:59:05,080
Speaker 2: last week against the Jets. Forty nine is lost as

2502
01:59:05,120 --> 01:59:07,720
Speaker 2: Sunday when a rookie kicker miss from forty one yards

2503
01:59:07,720 --> 01:59:14,440
Speaker 2: out right San Francisco. Wise in trusting a championship roster,

2504
01:59:14,480 --> 01:59:17,160
Speaker 2: which they have to a rookie's foot when it comes

2505
01:59:17,200 --> 01:59:19,440
Speaker 2: to the playoffs. I don't think so. Was he a

2506
01:59:19,480 --> 01:59:20,360
Speaker 2: third round choice?

2507
01:59:20,600 --> 01:59:23,920
Speaker 5: I was putting up pictures of Robbie Gold all week, right,

2508
01:59:23,960 --> 01:59:25,840
Speaker 5: Why is he sitting around looking at people?

2509
01:59:26,560 --> 01:59:29,120
Speaker 2: You know, it's amazing. He missed forty one yards really

2510
01:59:29,200 --> 01:59:31,640
Speaker 2: right now is almost automatic in the National Football League.

2511
01:59:31,720 --> 01:59:33,520
Speaker 2: I think that's something to take out of that ball game.

2512
01:59:33,520 --> 01:59:35,200
Speaker 2: And it could happen, but it's not gonna happen today

2513
01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:36,320
Speaker 2: because the forty nine is a win.

2514
01:59:38,280 --> 01:59:40,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the forty nine ers should win. Brian

2515
01:59:40,640 --> 01:59:43,440
Speaker 4: Floyds would give their offense a little trouble with his

2516
01:59:43,560 --> 01:59:46,880
Speaker 4: cover zero schemes. Jake Moody is concerning just because this

2517
01:59:46,960 --> 01:59:49,080
Speaker 4: guy is the all time everything at Michigan.

2518
01:59:49,520 --> 01:59:49,640
Speaker 8: Uh.

2519
01:59:49,760 --> 01:59:52,080
Speaker 4: He was drafted and so that puts some more pressure

2520
01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:54,680
Speaker 4: because people don't like when you draft a kicker, even

2521
01:59:54,720 --> 01:59:57,640
Speaker 4: though kickers are always the leading score of their respective teams.

2522
01:59:57,920 --> 02:00:00,800
Speaker 4: He just has to knock down the kicks and we'll

2523
02:00:00,800 --> 02:00:03,480
Speaker 4: see the first time he goes out to attempt a

2524
02:00:03,480 --> 02:00:05,360
Speaker 4: field goal, the pressure would.

2525
02:00:05,120 --> 02:00:05,480
Speaker 3: Be on him.

2526
02:00:05,480 --> 02:00:07,600
Speaker 4: And if he knocks it through then I think it

2527
02:00:07,680 --> 02:00:09,680
Speaker 4: were good. But if he misses, then you have to

2528
02:00:09,680 --> 02:00:10,800
Speaker 4: worry about his confidence.

2529
02:00:11,440 --> 02:00:15,800
Speaker 5: First miss outside of a fifty plus yarder on the season,

2530
02:00:16,160 --> 02:00:19,600
Speaker 5: obviously huge. You have thirty family members standing there. You

2531
02:00:19,680 --> 02:00:22,280
Speaker 5: had the opportunity to be a hero in a grind

2532
02:00:22,320 --> 02:00:27,360
Speaker 5: it out game against those pesky Cleveland Browns, and instead

2533
02:00:27,720 --> 02:00:30,839
Speaker 5: you go home losers, and everybody then assails your quarterback

2534
02:00:30,880 --> 02:00:33,160
Speaker 5: as he can't get it done even though he drove

2535
02:00:33,240 --> 02:00:35,720
Speaker 5: you in position to what is to your point, Andy,

2536
02:00:36,160 --> 02:00:38,280
Speaker 5: A make I think it's eighty two to eighty three

2537
02:00:38,320 --> 02:00:41,240
Speaker 5: percent of the time over the last twenty years. So

2538
02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:46,120
Speaker 5: chaos ensues. Bucky Brooks and I continue for another hour here, Andy,

2539
02:00:46,160 --> 02:00:48,600
Speaker 5: I hope you get to watch football instead of picking weeds.

2540
02:00:48,640 --> 02:00:50,920
Speaker 2: Brother, Thank you, thank you very much.

2541
02:00:51,520 --> 02:00:57,280
Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio continues. Let's get it on another hour

2542
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:01,800
Speaker 5: Fox Football Sunday, another hour to kickoff in the gloria

2543
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:05,360
Speaker 5: of Week seven of the National Football League. Remember they

2544
02:01:05,440 --> 02:01:08,720
Speaker 5: all count just the same two hundred and seventy two

2545
02:01:08,880 --> 02:01:12,160
Speaker 5: glorious chances to avoid weed picking. I love you, Andy

2546
02:01:12,200 --> 02:01:16,080
Speaker 5: Furman and other to do list things wherever you are

2547
02:01:16,120 --> 02:01:18,360
Speaker 5: though out and about on your way here on a

2548
02:01:18,400 --> 02:01:22,440
Speaker 5: Sunday morning, out to brunch, out to the services, to

2549
02:01:22,600 --> 02:01:25,840
Speaker 5: and from walking the dog, morning coffee, whatever you're doing,

2550
02:01:25,840 --> 02:01:28,720
Speaker 5: we appreciate you being along with us for the ride.

2551
02:01:28,720 --> 02:01:31,000
Speaker 5: Part of the extended family. You can take us with

2552
02:01:31,120 --> 02:01:33,680
Speaker 5: you wherever you go. On the iHeartRadio app. And who

2553
02:01:33,720 --> 02:01:36,360
Speaker 5: are we? I'm Mike Harmen alongside my guy Bucky Brooks

2554
02:01:36,560 --> 02:01:41,000
Speaker 5: five years in the league, analysts along the Jaguars Network.

2555
02:01:41,080 --> 02:01:43,440
Speaker 5: You've got NFL dot Com. You see him on the

2556
02:01:43,480 --> 02:01:46,680
Speaker 5: couch FS one. He's a coach, he's a mentor, he

2557
02:01:46,720 --> 02:01:49,400
Speaker 5: writes for NFL dot Com. It's my guy, Bucky Brooks.

2558
02:01:49,440 --> 02:01:51,200
Speaker 5: What's going on, buggy Man?

2559
02:01:51,200 --> 02:01:52,400
Speaker 3: What's having? What's having? What's going on?

2560
02:01:52,440 --> 02:01:52,600
Speaker 8: Mike?

2561
02:01:52,720 --> 02:01:55,280
Speaker 5: It is a beautiful day as we get going. You know,

2562
02:01:55,320 --> 02:01:59,160
Speaker 5: I'm all excited about my tyson Bagent Brian Hoyer matchup

2563
02:01:59,200 --> 02:02:03,480
Speaker 5: a little later to day. Excitement all about around, because look,

2564
02:02:03,760 --> 02:02:06,720
Speaker 5: chaos and susan the National Football League week to week,

2565
02:02:06,760 --> 02:02:09,320
Speaker 5: we have no idea what we're gonna get. And even

2566
02:02:09,400 --> 02:02:12,480
Speaker 5: looking at some of the teams through six weeks, you go,

2567
02:02:12,520 --> 02:02:15,200
Speaker 5: all right, they're five hundred, are they any good? They're

2568
02:02:15,240 --> 02:02:17,480
Speaker 5: above five hundred, are they any good? You had this

2569
02:02:17,600 --> 02:02:23,120
Speaker 5: on Thursday night Jaguars and the stretch that had been

2570
02:02:23,200 --> 02:02:25,600
Speaker 5: played there, right, no week off or any of that.

2571
02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:29,360
Speaker 5: So battling through and then you get the Saints that

2572
02:02:29,800 --> 02:02:34,720
Speaker 5: for many predicted a south run because of the defense,

2573
02:02:35,000 --> 02:02:39,200
Speaker 5: and there's still some segment of believers that Derek Carr

2574
02:02:39,240 --> 02:02:42,840
Speaker 5: can be the guy, and through six weeks three and three,

2575
02:02:43,040 --> 02:02:45,680
Speaker 5: and then you watch a lot of malcontentedness, a lot

2576
02:02:45,680 --> 02:02:48,840
Speaker 5: of finger pointing, a lot of discontent, and a lot

2577
02:02:48,880 --> 02:02:53,120
Speaker 5: of checkdowns. Now, their offensive line was depleted against the

2578
02:02:53,240 --> 02:02:56,520
Speaker 5: Jaguars on Thursday night, Bucky, but there was a lot

2579
02:02:56,560 --> 02:03:00,440
Speaker 5: to dislike about the way that Saints team is operating

2580
02:03:01,040 --> 02:03:02,480
Speaker 5: from what we saw on Thursday.

2581
02:03:03,360 --> 02:03:05,840
Speaker 4: First things first, let's start with a quarterback before we

2582
02:03:05,880 --> 02:03:08,280
Speaker 4: can talk about his onfield performance. The way he showed

2583
02:03:08,320 --> 02:03:12,320
Speaker 4: up his teammates absolutely unacceptable, like he cannot do that.

2584
02:03:12,400 --> 02:03:15,560
Speaker 4: He was absolutely trying to absolve himself from blame. It

2585
02:03:15,640 --> 02:03:17,600
Speaker 4: was very transparent. You could see it if you're in

2586
02:03:17,640 --> 02:03:20,080
Speaker 4: the building. The building was rocking and rolling, and they

2587
02:03:20,120 --> 02:03:23,960
Speaker 4: were cascading booze on the offense for their lack of

2588
02:03:24,000 --> 02:03:27,520
Speaker 4: success for most of the game. Every time something went wrong,

2589
02:03:27,840 --> 02:03:30,440
Speaker 4: Derek Carr let the football world know, Hey, that's not

2590
02:03:30,560 --> 02:03:34,520
Speaker 4: on me, that's on him, That's on somebody else. I

2591
02:03:34,680 --> 02:03:37,120
Speaker 4: worry about the Saints, not because they don't have enough

2592
02:03:37,160 --> 02:03:39,040
Speaker 4: talent to get there. I worry if they got the

2593
02:03:39,080 --> 02:03:42,600
Speaker 4: right quarterback, meaning the right mentality. Say what you will

2594
02:03:42,640 --> 02:03:45,440
Speaker 4: about Jameis Winston, say what you will about Drew Brees.

2595
02:03:45,720 --> 02:03:49,880
Speaker 4: Those guys had a connectivity with their teammates that you

2596
02:03:49,920 --> 02:03:51,960
Speaker 4: didn't have to see them act out like that to

2597
02:03:52,000 --> 02:03:56,040
Speaker 4: hold a teammate accountable. To me, it was very troubling

2598
02:03:56,080 --> 02:03:57,880
Speaker 4: to see Derek Carr act out like that.

2599
02:03:58,000 --> 02:04:00,240
Speaker 5: Well, what was interesting to me, Bucky is you know,

2600
02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:02,480
Speaker 5: Jason and I were on air right doing our show,

2601
02:04:02,680 --> 02:04:06,480
Speaker 5: Jason Smith and I Weaknights, Fox Sports Radio seven eleven Pacific,

2602
02:04:06,680 --> 02:04:09,000
Speaker 5: so we don't have the benefit of the audio and

2603
02:04:09,320 --> 02:04:12,400
Speaker 5: whatever al Michaels and Herbstreet are talking about. But the

2604
02:04:12,520 --> 02:04:17,000
Speaker 5: number of one shots of Derek Carr gesturing, you know,

2605
02:04:17,080 --> 02:04:19,000
Speaker 5: with his hand, you should have gone this way, that

2606
02:04:19,080 --> 02:04:21,440
Speaker 5: way with whatever. We're looking at each other, even in

2607
02:04:21,480 --> 02:04:25,360
Speaker 5: real time, just shaking our heads, and really there's a

2608
02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:29,200
Speaker 5: couple of promos eviscerating him. But then they kept cutting

2609
02:04:29,240 --> 02:04:32,280
Speaker 5: away to Drew Brees, who was in attendance. And I

2610
02:04:32,280 --> 02:04:36,120
Speaker 5: don't think i've seen an ex player look saltier when

2611
02:04:36,160 --> 02:04:38,400
Speaker 5: he's got nothing to do with the game. Normally, you're smiling,

2612
02:04:38,480 --> 02:04:42,000
Speaker 5: you're sitting in a booth, you're glad handing folks, shaking hands,

2613
02:04:42,080 --> 02:04:46,960
Speaker 5: kissing babies. He was full intent, elbows on his knees,

2614
02:04:47,400 --> 02:04:50,880
Speaker 5: looking horrified at what he was experiencing. I thought that

2615
02:04:50,960 --> 02:04:53,680
Speaker 5: was the most interesting cutaway that they did a couple

2616
02:04:53,720 --> 02:04:54,560
Speaker 5: of times that night.

2617
02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:01,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny, because, man, when you were model of

2618
02:05:01,080 --> 02:05:04,440
Speaker 4: efficiency like he's been, I made his stomach turn having

2619
02:05:04,440 --> 02:05:07,600
Speaker 4: to sit there and watch that just over and over

2620
02:05:07,640 --> 02:05:11,640
Speaker 4: and over. Just the futility, the lack of execution, all

2621
02:05:11,680 --> 02:05:14,000
Speaker 4: of that, Like he's not built for it. So that's

2622
02:05:14,000 --> 02:05:16,120
Speaker 4: why it looked like he has some bad meat on

2623
02:05:16,160 --> 02:05:18,200
Speaker 4: his face, like he just ate, like his stomach was

2624
02:05:18,840 --> 02:05:21,080
Speaker 4: like that he was throwing up, Like yeah, like it's

2625
02:05:21,480 --> 02:05:24,000
Speaker 4: it's one of those things. And I'm telling you, like

2626
02:05:24,000 --> 02:05:26,960
Speaker 4: like watching it, Philow, defense is good enough to get

2627
02:05:26,960 --> 02:05:27,400
Speaker 4: it done.

2628
02:05:27,520 --> 02:05:29,040
Speaker 3: They have enough talent to be able to do it.

2629
02:05:29,080 --> 02:05:32,920
Speaker 4: They got receivers Galore and Chris o'livea and Michael Thomas

2630
02:05:32,920 --> 02:05:36,040
Speaker 4: still can make plays the return of SHEI gets up there.

2631
02:05:36,600 --> 02:05:38,880
Speaker 4: They have enough talent to get it done. To me,

2632
02:05:39,440 --> 02:05:41,760
Speaker 4: the miss link is a quarterback will a quarterback be

2633
02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:43,200
Speaker 4: good enough to help him get it done?

2634
02:05:43,240 --> 02:05:45,600
Speaker 3: And until they fix that, they can't fix the other stuff.

2635
02:05:45,960 --> 02:05:49,080
Speaker 5: Now on the other side of our rewind mister Thursday Night,

2636
02:05:49,080 --> 02:05:52,640
Speaker 5: what is it Peterson's now eight no on Thursday Night Football,

2637
02:05:52,720 --> 02:05:56,720
Speaker 5: Trevor Lawrence with the questionable tag brace all the week

2638
02:05:56,800 --> 02:05:59,280
Speaker 5: and whatever on the short week, and he's running around

2639
02:05:59,360 --> 02:06:03,960
Speaker 5: like he's got a shot of lightning running through him.

2640
02:06:04,000 --> 02:06:07,120
Speaker 5: So you have that. But Travis etn I think we

2641
02:06:07,200 --> 02:06:10,280
Speaker 5: expected bigger things from him this year. He's become all

2642
02:06:10,320 --> 02:06:12,520
Speaker 5: world at the running back position. I think it's hard

2643
02:06:12,520 --> 02:06:14,880
Speaker 5: pressed to not have him on the metal stand of

2644
02:06:14,960 --> 02:06:16,320
Speaker 5: the best in the game right now.

2645
02:06:17,440 --> 02:06:21,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a nightmare. I mean, he is a problem.

2646
02:06:21,640 --> 02:06:25,760
Speaker 4: He is a difference maker. He gives them exactly what

2647
02:06:25,800 --> 02:06:28,360
Speaker 4: they need to have in terms of a downhill runner

2648
02:06:28,600 --> 02:06:33,000
Speaker 4: with some wiggle, with some toughness, all of that, and

2649
02:06:33,080 --> 02:06:35,120
Speaker 4: so it really compliments what they want to do in

2650
02:06:35,160 --> 02:06:37,560
Speaker 4: the passing game. But he has been even better than

2651
02:06:37,600 --> 02:06:40,840
Speaker 4: I think anybody in the building could anticipate.

2652
02:06:41,480 --> 02:06:42,080
Speaker 3: He's a monster.

2653
02:06:42,480 --> 02:06:44,800
Speaker 5: Now. Christian Kirk a guy that you and I talked

2654
02:06:44,840 --> 02:06:47,720
Speaker 5: about a lot here on Fox Football Sundays for a

2655
02:06:47,720 --> 02:06:49,280
Speaker 5: couple of years, even when he was a member of

2656
02:06:49,320 --> 02:06:51,840
Speaker 5: the Arizona Cardinals, and when he got that contract, a

2657
02:06:51,840 --> 02:06:53,560
Speaker 5: lot of people mocked it. Oh, he hasn't had one

2658
02:06:53,560 --> 02:06:55,800
Speaker 5: thousand yards whatever. It's like they're paying for him for

2659
02:06:55,840 --> 02:06:58,880
Speaker 5: what he's going to do and the expectation is that

2660
02:06:58,920 --> 02:07:01,920
Speaker 5: the Cardinals have not used them correctly and we're seeing

2661
02:07:01,920 --> 02:07:05,480
Speaker 5: greatness here. So Christian Kirk and his breakout. But the

2662
02:07:05,520 --> 02:07:07,920
Speaker 5: other thing, Bucky, you need to address some fantasy owners

2663
02:07:07,920 --> 02:07:11,040
Speaker 5: who are gripping over Calvin Ridley in the week to week.

2664
02:07:11,280 --> 02:07:12,680
Speaker 5: How do you allay their fears there?

2665
02:07:14,320 --> 02:07:17,240
Speaker 4: I can't lay their fields because it did fears because

2666
02:07:17,440 --> 02:07:19,560
Speaker 4: I was one of the main ones pumping them up.

2667
02:07:19,800 --> 02:07:23,200
Speaker 4: Here's what I can tell you. The offense operates in

2668
02:07:23,200 --> 02:07:25,920
Speaker 4: the passing game. It goes through number thirteen, Christian Kirk

2669
02:07:25,920 --> 02:07:28,920
Speaker 4: at number seventeen Evan Ingram. When they start out feeding

2670
02:07:28,960 --> 02:07:33,120
Speaker 4: those guys early and then incorporating Calvin Ridley late. That's

2671
02:07:33,240 --> 02:07:36,000
Speaker 4: kind of like the recipe in the formula. It started

2672
02:07:36,040 --> 02:07:39,720
Speaker 4: off though, with Calvin Ridley being the featured number one receiver.

2673
02:07:39,880 --> 02:07:43,280
Speaker 3: But what that did it disrupted the flow of the offense.

2674
02:07:43,360 --> 02:07:44,040
Speaker 3: Based on what.

2675
02:07:44,080 --> 02:07:46,840
Speaker 4: They did the previous year, so they've gone back to

2676
02:07:47,480 --> 02:07:50,280
Speaker 4: hey Man, first play that gets open gets the rock.

2677
02:07:51,240 --> 02:07:54,160
Speaker 4: Calvin will find some isolated matchups to get you the

2678
02:07:54,160 --> 02:07:57,240
Speaker 4: ball one on one, but the offense is gonna flow

2679
02:07:57,240 --> 02:07:58,600
Speaker 4: through those insight.

2680
02:07:58,680 --> 02:08:01,080
Speaker 3: Got the slot in the tied end with Travis z

2681
02:08:01,400 --> 02:08:02,280
Speaker 3: A right behind it.

2682
02:08:02,440 --> 02:08:04,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I flipped the calendar. You know, another

2683
02:08:04,720 --> 02:08:07,480
Speaker 5: one of those years past, and I'm doing a little

2684
02:08:07,480 --> 02:08:10,120
Speaker 5: Swedish death cleaning. It's time to start cleaning up my

2685
02:08:10,200 --> 02:08:12,640
Speaker 5: life and the clutter. So going through the trading cards,

2686
02:08:12,880 --> 02:08:16,360
Speaker 5: and I've got bins of hats from my travels uh

2687
02:08:16,400 --> 02:08:19,440
Speaker 5: and trials and tribulations through the years, UH and gifts

2688
02:08:19,440 --> 02:08:22,280
Speaker 5: along the way. I got a beautiful Orioles postseason hat

2689
02:08:22,320 --> 02:08:25,880
Speaker 5: that my friends in Baltimore sent me, So the next

2690
02:08:25,880 --> 02:08:27,720
Speaker 5: time they take the field, we'll be able to wear

2691
02:08:27,760 --> 02:08:30,920
Speaker 5: that uh and show out a little there, because you

2692
02:08:30,960 --> 02:08:34,200
Speaker 5: know that bird is glorious. But I found in a box,

2693
02:08:34,240 --> 02:08:37,120
Speaker 5: Bucky an original Jaguars hat that's just been sitting there

2694
02:08:37,760 --> 02:08:42,520
Speaker 5: for a long long time, the long abandoned logos. So

2695
02:08:42,640 --> 02:08:45,680
Speaker 5: I'm I'm I'm ready ready. I picked them before the

2696
02:08:45,720 --> 02:08:50,320
Speaker 5: season to be the AFC contributor to the Super Bowl hysterics.

2697
02:08:50,360 --> 02:08:52,800
Speaker 5: So I need you to help bring that home.

2698
02:08:54,000 --> 02:08:54,680
Speaker 3: You need me to help.

2699
02:08:55,360 --> 02:08:59,520
Speaker 5: You need here conduit to the squad, so, you know,

2700
02:09:00,120 --> 02:09:01,760
Speaker 5: just saying Mike, he's got a lot on the line

2701
02:09:01,760 --> 02:09:03,560
Speaker 5: here as a motivation.

2702
02:09:03,880 --> 02:09:07,160

2709
02:09:23,440 --> 02:09:27,600
Speaker 5: someone in our business there, Bucky. That's all. We're broadcasting

2714
02:09:42,320 --> 02:09:45,160
Speaker 5: you know, getting ahead, you know, and while hitting the

2715
02:09:45,200 --> 02:09:48,280
Speaker 5: rewind button for a second and talking as we did

2716
02:09:48,360 --> 02:09:50,800
Speaker 5: with Andy Ferman a little bit yesterday, the you know,

2717
02:09:50,920 --> 02:09:53,600
Speaker 5: the struggles of some of the top quarterbacks and and

2718
02:09:53,720 --> 02:09:58,800
Speaker 5: Andy was very excitable about the Michigan Wolverines, and rightly

2719
02:09:58,920 --> 02:10:02,080
Speaker 5: so right they're they're only along at a good clip.

2720
02:10:02,120 --> 02:10:05,200
Speaker 5: But most of the others that would be assumed top

2721
02:10:05,280 --> 02:10:07,680
Speaker 5: of the draft board kind of guys from as you

2722
02:10:07,800 --> 02:10:10,600
Speaker 5: mentioned him, Daniel Jeremiah and and you know some of

2723
02:10:10,680 --> 02:10:15,960
Speaker 5: these others. Would you would you say that there necessarily

2724
02:10:16,040 --> 02:10:19,120
Speaker 5: has to be a quarterback number one depending on how

2725
02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:24,880
Speaker 5: the draft order shakes out. Is there someone else you

2726
02:10:24,960 --> 02:10:28,240
Speaker 5: can argue for him, like say, I'm Marvin Harrison Junior?

2727
02:10:28,600 --> 02:10:30,920
Speaker 5: Or is it you know, come and get Caleb Williams

2728
02:10:30,960 --> 02:10:32,280
Speaker 5: if you love him and give me a lot of

2729
02:10:32,360 --> 02:10:33,040
Speaker 5: draft capital.

2730
02:10:34,960 --> 02:10:38,560
Speaker 4: H This is probably the latter because that makes sense.

2731
02:10:38,880 --> 02:10:43,400
Speaker 4: Young quarterback ton of picks. You know, people that have

2732
02:10:43,520 --> 02:10:46,560
Speaker 4: the opportunity to pick picks pick players. They love to

2733
02:10:46,640 --> 02:10:48,240
Speaker 4: have the picks, and so that's why they would go

2734
02:10:48,320 --> 02:10:51,080
Speaker 4: for that quarterback. You have to consider it because not

2735
02:10:51,200 --> 02:10:54,320
Speaker 4: only whether you talk about the inconsistencies from justin fields,

2736
02:10:54,360 --> 02:10:56,000
Speaker 4: but at some point he's going to be in line

2737
02:10:56,040 --> 02:10:58,720
Speaker 4: to get paid. And when he gets paid in two years,

2738
02:10:58,760 --> 02:11:00,160
Speaker 4: do you have the rest of the team bill up

2739
02:11:00,240 --> 02:11:02,240
Speaker 4: enough where you can carry them as opposed to them

2740
02:11:02,360 --> 02:11:02,920
Speaker 4: carrying him.

2741
02:11:05,440 --> 02:11:08,200
Speaker 3: That's why this year is critical.

2742
02:11:09,120 --> 02:11:11,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is a curious time. It's more just a

2743
02:11:12,120 --> 02:11:14,840
Speaker 5: I like, I root for chaos between the white lines,

2744
02:11:15,120 --> 02:11:18,440
Speaker 5: and certainly on Draft Day, I wanted to look more

2745
02:11:18,560 --> 02:11:21,280
Speaker 5: like the movie Draft Day, where it looks like nobody

2746
02:11:21,320 --> 02:11:22,160
Speaker 5: knows what they're doing.

2747
02:11:23,640 --> 02:11:27,560
Speaker 4: Kevin Costner trying to figure out who to pick quarterback.

2748
02:11:27,200 --> 02:11:29,760
Speaker 5: Is yeah, I mean, look, they're getting cute with what

2749
02:11:30,200 --> 02:11:33,160
Speaker 5: how the salary cap works and whatever else. Like if

2750
02:11:33,160 --> 02:11:35,720
Speaker 5: you know football that you know that was all nonsense.

2751
02:11:35,760 --> 02:11:37,280
Speaker 5: But that was fine. It was good for the narrative.

2752
02:11:37,880 --> 02:11:42,560
Speaker 5: And we'll always remember David Putney middle name redacted because

2753
02:11:42,600 --> 02:11:45,680
Speaker 5: it's Sunday morning. But all of that where there's just

2754
02:11:45,760 --> 02:11:48,160
Speaker 5: a little bit of chaos up there, here's the obvious guy,

2755
02:11:48,240 --> 02:11:50,640
Speaker 5: and then you just say we're gonna go in a

2756
02:11:50,720 --> 02:11:53,879
Speaker 5: different direction, and there's a bunch of trades and chaos

2757
02:11:54,440 --> 02:11:59,000
Speaker 5: along the way. But certainly here in southern California, Caleb Williams,

2758
02:11:59,600 --> 02:12:04,960
Speaker 5: Dia lion eyes to a degree, Lincoln Riley facing a

2759
02:12:05,040 --> 02:12:07,680
Speaker 5: lot of criticism this morning. So that is the big

2760
02:12:07,760 --> 02:12:10,440
Speaker 5: takeaway from the late Saturday night games. In case you're

2761
02:12:10,520 --> 02:12:12,920
Speaker 5: on the East Coast and you went to bed before

2762
02:12:13,000 --> 02:12:15,520
Speaker 5: all of that finished out last night with the big

2763
02:12:15,800 --> 02:12:19,400
Speaker 5: Utah field goal to finish things off. Got a big

2764
02:12:19,480 --> 02:12:25,560
Speaker 5: slate of games coming up today, Bucky, as we said, Cincinnati, Tennessee, Carolina, Dallas,

2765
02:12:26,000 --> 02:12:29,840
Speaker 5: the Jets, and the Texans all on a bye through

2766
02:12:29,920 --> 02:12:32,480
Speaker 5: a third of the season. Is there a team that

2767
02:12:32,840 --> 02:12:35,400
Speaker 5: has you moving towards the edge of your seed of

2768
02:12:35,840 --> 02:12:37,880
Speaker 5: I didn't anticipate this, but it's been kind of a

2769
02:12:38,120 --> 02:12:41,120
Speaker 5: fun run. Right, the Lions. We all expect them to

2770
02:12:41,200 --> 02:12:43,720
Speaker 5: be good. Right, we looked at the division? Was theirs

2771
02:12:43,800 --> 02:12:46,800
Speaker 5: based on how they closed out last year to rise

2772
02:12:46,880 --> 02:12:49,680
Speaker 5: up the Jaguars? They beat the Chargers in that dramatic

2773
02:12:49,760 --> 02:12:54,480
Speaker 5: comeback you bring in Calvin Ridley. Expectations were steps forward,

2774
02:12:54,680 --> 02:12:57,040
Speaker 5: go win the division. Is there a team that stands

2775
02:12:57,080 --> 02:12:58,600
Speaker 5: out to you that you're like, all right, I can't

2776
02:12:58,640 --> 02:12:59,920
Speaker 5: wait to see what the next third hold.

2777
02:13:06,720 --> 02:13:11,520
Speaker 4: So everyone is talking about the team, but I really

2778
02:13:11,680 --> 02:13:13,280
Speaker 4: believe I need to give them their flyers. Like people

2779
02:13:13,360 --> 02:13:16,680
Speaker 4: talk about Detroit, right, and Detroit is more than the

2780
02:13:16,720 --> 02:13:18,800
Speaker 4: feel good story that has been made out to be right.

2781
02:13:18,880 --> 02:13:21,720
Speaker 4: Like we have loved fairy tales and Cinderella and oh

2782
02:13:21,800 --> 02:13:23,840
Speaker 4: they're gonna do all this other stuff. But When you

2783
02:13:23,920 --> 02:13:26,800
Speaker 4: look at the Lions, they are built to last. They're

2784
02:13:26,880 --> 02:13:29,520
Speaker 4: kind of like a baby version of the forty nine

2785
02:13:29,600 --> 02:13:32,400
Speaker 4: ers in terms of like their size, physicality, toughness, the

2786
02:13:32,440 --> 02:13:34,640
Speaker 4: way they can control the line of scrimmage, what Dan

2787
02:13:34,760 --> 02:13:37,920
Speaker 4: Campbell has them doing on offense and defense. They can

2788
02:13:37,960 --> 02:13:40,240
Speaker 4: get it out. So to me, they are the team

2789
02:13:40,760 --> 02:13:43,160
Speaker 4: that everyone is sleeping on as a title contender.

2790
02:13:43,520 --> 02:13:46,760
Speaker 3: They already have to win against the Kancity Chiefs. They can't.

2791
02:13:47,240 --> 02:13:49,440
Speaker 3: They look, they can't worry about who's.

2792
02:13:49,120 --> 02:13:51,080
Speaker 4: On their schedule, but the fact that they took the

2793
02:13:51,240 --> 02:13:54,960
Speaker 4: Chiefs down at the Chiefs Place, Yeah, this team is

2794
02:13:54,960 --> 02:13:55,680
Speaker 4: ready to rock and roll.

2795
02:13:55,760 --> 02:13:55,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2796
02:13:55,920 --> 02:13:57,800
Speaker 5: I mean go back to Week one right at a

2797
02:13:57,800 --> 02:14:01,160
Speaker 5: lot of ex caveat the Joe and Kelsey didn't play.

2798
02:14:01,200 --> 02:14:03,000
Speaker 5: It's like I can only line up against who's on

2799
02:14:03,080 --> 02:14:06,360
Speaker 5: the field right when we play him. That's who shows

2800
02:14:06,440 --> 02:14:10,160
Speaker 5: up this week. I'm curious for your thoughts how much

2801
02:14:10,280 --> 02:14:14,160
Speaker 5: is lost with David Montgomery not being available because Jamiir

2802
02:14:14,200 --> 02:14:18,080
Speaker 5: Gibbs to this point and injuries of his own certainly

2803
02:14:18,160 --> 02:14:21,680
Speaker 5: not the same style and player and fantasy owners gripping

2804
02:14:21,760 --> 02:14:25,040
Speaker 5: because he hasn't been the darling they anticipated. If they

2805
02:14:25,120 --> 02:14:28,000
Speaker 5: reached a bit to draft him, but Montgomery, they paid

2806
02:14:28,040 --> 02:14:30,080
Speaker 5: him some pretty good money and the returns have been

2807
02:14:30,160 --> 02:14:34,280
Speaker 5: good thus far in creating the play action and bulldozing

2808
02:14:34,320 --> 02:14:36,640
Speaker 5: in short yardage. How big a loss is he for

2809
02:14:36,760 --> 02:14:39,280
Speaker 5: this week against the Baltimore Ravens.

2810
02:14:43,280 --> 02:14:45,720
Speaker 4: Look, he's been effective player. He's been a good player

2811
02:14:45,840 --> 02:14:48,640
Speaker 4: for him. They can kind of do it back community.

2812
02:14:48,640 --> 02:14:50,400
Speaker 4: They piecemeld it last week and were able to get

2813
02:14:50,440 --> 02:14:52,960
Speaker 4: it done. To me, if anything, this becomes more of

2814
02:14:53,000 --> 02:14:55,600
Speaker 4: a jeried golf game. One the Raves are gonna take

2815
02:14:55,600 --> 02:14:57,040
Speaker 4: away to run a game. They're gonna try and make

2816
02:14:57,120 --> 02:14:59,800
Speaker 4: him have to win it as a thrower. Already, get

2817
02:14:59,840 --> 02:15:02,839
Speaker 4: on the issue that you have here the Raisin Ravens.

2818
02:15:02,880 --> 02:15:04,640
Speaker 4: The lines are gonna spread it out. They may us

2819
02:15:04,640 --> 02:15:07,880
Speaker 4: some empty some other stuff, kind of stress some of

2820
02:15:07,920 --> 02:15:10,160
Speaker 4: your defenders in space, and I better hope they can

2821
02:15:10,200 --> 02:15:11,960
Speaker 4: tackle well because I'll take some one miss.

2822
02:15:12,920 --> 02:15:15,800
Speaker 5: No, I'd say that's a lot of speedsters out there

2823
02:15:16,120 --> 02:15:20,080
Speaker 5: try to contend with Baltimore's defense, one of the best

2824
02:15:20,240 --> 02:15:23,360
Speaker 5: in the game thus far this year. So we'll see

2825
02:15:23,400 --> 02:15:25,240
Speaker 5: what they rally. They're still trying to get their run

2826
02:15:25,360 --> 02:15:28,760
Speaker 5: game together. On the other side, Lamar Jackson, uh making

2827
02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:30,960
Speaker 5: it making plays with his legs, but not the same

2828
02:15:31,400 --> 02:15:34,960
Speaker 5: level of efficiency. More gusts the bush in Justice Hill.

2829
02:15:35,040 --> 02:15:37,920
Speaker 5: What folks are looking for this week, and certainly for

2830
02:15:38,240 --> 02:15:40,560
Speaker 5: the bottle of stick them that I sent back to

2831
02:15:40,640 --> 02:15:44,080
Speaker 5: Baltimore to find its way to the receivers. We don't

2832
02:15:44,120 --> 02:15:47,200
Speaker 5: talk about stick them anymore. We got these tacky gloves

2833
02:15:47,240 --> 02:15:49,320
Speaker 5: and even that's not helping the guys in Baltimore. Do

2834
02:15:49,400 --> 02:15:53,440
Speaker 5: they get lesser gloves from a secondary facility? I mean,

2835
02:15:53,440 --> 02:15:54,000
Speaker 5: what are we doing?

2836
02:15:54,880 --> 02:15:55,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

2837
02:15:55,560 --> 02:15:58,760
Speaker 4: They had a tough time bringing in passes and as

2838
02:15:59,000 --> 02:16:01,320
Speaker 4: I had to said, it was you start missing them,

2839
02:16:01,520 --> 02:16:02,840
Speaker 4: everyone starts dropping them.

2840
02:16:03,280 --> 02:16:05,120
Speaker 3: Can't have a flowing offense.

2841
02:16:04,800 --> 02:16:07,600
Speaker 4: Because of you know, like not being able to do

2842
02:16:07,680 --> 02:16:12,240
Speaker 4: to easy things, easy to execute things like catching big problem.

2843
02:16:12,440 --> 02:16:14,920
Speaker 5: Gotta be simple, you know, keep it simple. Stupid is

2844
02:16:14,960 --> 02:16:17,360
Speaker 5: what I was on and my family always empsided the

2845
02:16:17,440 --> 02:16:20,680
Speaker 5: stupid part for some reason. H he's Bucky Brooks. I'm

2846
02:16:20,720 --> 02:16:22,400

2851
02:16:36,080 --> 02:16:41,120
Speaker 5: we'll turn our attention to the Los Angeles Rams. Suddenly Curious,

2852
02:16:41,640 --> 02:16:46,160
Speaker 5: Suddenly an opportunity presents itself with some injuries in San Francisco?

2853
02:16:46,840 --> 02:16:49,920
Speaker 5: Or does it in Matt Canada? Did he find an

2854
02:16:49,959 --> 02:16:52,720
Speaker 5: offense in the bye week? We'll talk about that game

2855
02:16:52,800 --> 02:16:57,720
Speaker 5: next as we continue on Fox Football Sunday. Hey, welcome

2856

Speaker 5: live from the tire rac dot Com studios Mike Harmen

2858
02:17:03,840 --> 02:17:07,160
Speaker 5: alongside Bucky Brooks. Thanks for making us part of your morning.

2859
02:17:07,200 --> 02:17:11,920
Speaker 5: Wherever you may be here in the glorious globe. You

2860
02:17:12,000 --> 02:17:13,920
Speaker 5: got another chance to go one to oh today, so

2861
02:17:14,080 --> 02:17:16,560
Speaker 5: go take advantage of it, whether it's doing some of

2862
02:17:16,640 --> 02:17:19,080
Speaker 5: the to do lists that you've been putting off. I've

2863
02:17:19,120 --> 02:17:22,480
Speaker 5: got boxes that I'm going through and I'm finding things

2864
02:17:22,560 --> 02:17:26,680
Speaker 5: I don't remember, old memories. I actually have a scorecard

2865
02:17:27,120 --> 02:17:29,879
Speaker 5: from a young Mikey Harmon throwing a no hitter from

2866
02:17:30,560 --> 02:17:33,000
Speaker 5: his little league days that I just found in a

2867
02:17:33,080 --> 02:17:36,440
Speaker 5: box Bucky Brooks, and then I remember that game and

2868
02:17:36,520 --> 02:17:38,400
Speaker 5: start thinking about It's like, oh, Yeah, that was the

2869
02:17:38,480 --> 02:17:40,760
Speaker 5: one guy. Like I basically said, nobody else could hit me,

2870
02:17:41,080 --> 02:17:43,360
Speaker 5: so I intentionally walked the only guy that could hit.

2871
02:17:44,120 --> 02:17:47,120
Speaker 5: I basically dabbled outside the zone and said, if you

2872
02:17:47,160 --> 02:17:49,360
Speaker 5: want to chase, you can chase, but I'm not giving

2873
02:17:49,360 --> 02:17:51,560
Speaker 5: you anything over the heart of the plate. So there

2874
02:17:51,560 --> 02:17:53,920
Speaker 5: were a couple of walks mixed in there. But it's

2875
02:17:53,959 --> 02:17:56,760
Speaker 5: amazing the things you've really not thought about for a

2876
02:17:56,840 --> 02:17:59,160
Speaker 5: long time that are still part of your history.

2877
02:18:00,000 --> 02:18:00,520
Speaker 3: A cool.

2878
02:18:01,920 --> 02:18:07,240
Speaker 5: And then I felt so good times all around as

2879
02:18:07,280 --> 02:18:10,200
Speaker 5: we're here. Well, but but that's it, right, you know,

2880
02:18:10,400 --> 02:18:13,520
Speaker 5: because you're hitting the way back machine. And and certainly

2881
02:18:13,600 --> 02:18:16,880
Speaker 5: I'm out and about with my daughter's soccer squad early

2882
02:18:17,720 --> 02:18:20,920
Speaker 5: early game yesterday. I'm kind of getting tired. I'm gonna

2883
02:18:20,920 --> 02:18:25,040
Speaker 5: start charging mileage back to somebody or something for the

2884
02:18:25,120 --> 02:18:27,960
Speaker 5: amount that I'm putting on the car. It's really amazing.

2885
02:18:30,840 --> 02:18:34,400
Speaker 5: I was able to listen to the entire Rolling Stones

2886
02:18:34,440 --> 02:18:38,000
Speaker 5: album on the way to wear game yesterday. That's a

2887
02:18:38,040 --> 02:18:38,600
Speaker 5: long drive.

2888
02:18:39,200 --> 02:18:41,880
Speaker 3: That's that's that's that's a long drive. Yeah, that's the

2889
02:18:41,920 --> 02:18:44,360
Speaker 3: first thing I said, long drive.

2890
02:18:44,400 --> 02:18:46,560
Speaker 5: It's a good album, though, Bucky, I mean, I'd highly

2891
02:18:46,640 --> 02:18:50,840
Speaker 5: recommend a little Hackney diamonds added to your playlist, including

2892
02:18:51,040 --> 02:18:53,360
Speaker 5: an eighty year old Mick Jagger cursing a bunch, which

2893
02:18:53,400 --> 02:18:53,960
Speaker 5: is really cool.

2894
02:18:55,080 --> 02:18:55,360
Speaker 8: Mmm.

2895
02:18:57,040 --> 02:19:00,000
Speaker 5: Okay, you know with an affected British accent, it takes

2896
02:19:00,160 --> 02:19:01,080
Speaker 5: to a whole other level.

2904
02:19:19,920 --> 02:19:22,920
Speaker 5: and about eight other people, you've got the Steelers and

2905
02:19:23,040 --> 02:19:26,720
Speaker 5: the Rams getting together here at sofar. So Steeler fans

2906
02:19:26,800 --> 02:19:29,879
Speaker 5: in full effect, no question about it, No Kyron Williams.

2907
02:19:30,560 --> 02:19:32,640
Speaker 5: And for fantasy owners that spent a lot of their

2908
02:19:32,720 --> 02:19:36,200
Speaker 5: free agent acquisition budget on Zach Evans, I'm sorry they

2909
02:19:36,280 --> 02:19:40,320
Speaker 5: have signed every running back you once had as part

2910
02:19:40,440 --> 02:19:45,120
Speaker 5: of your running back by committee. Darryl Henderson returns, Miles

2911
02:19:45,280 --> 02:19:49,080
Speaker 5: Gaskin now part of the mix. You're just going all

2912
02:19:49,360 --> 02:19:52,400
Speaker 5: the way down, Bucky, just guy after guy. But I

2913
02:19:52,440 --> 02:19:55,680
Speaker 5: look at the Rams and am I wrong for being

2914
02:19:55,800 --> 02:19:59,360
Speaker 5: kind of intrigued? Where they're at at this point in

2915
02:19:59,400 --> 02:20:02,640
Speaker 5: the season, looking at a three and three squad. You've

2916
02:20:02,640 --> 02:20:07,320
Speaker 5: got Pittsburgh, Dallas, Green Bay, Seattle, Arizona are your next

2917
02:20:07,879 --> 02:20:12,440
Speaker 5: five games. Cooper Cup is back alongside Nikua, so you

2918
02:20:12,560 --> 02:20:15,360
Speaker 5: got that. You got Higbee who shows up and makes

2919
02:20:15,400 --> 02:20:19,640
Speaker 5: some big plays to move the chains. I'm intrigued by

2920
02:20:19,680 --> 02:20:23,280
Speaker 5: what Sean McVeigh and Matt Stafford have available to them.

2921
02:20:23,560 --> 02:20:27,320
Speaker 5: Tough task here with that defensive front of Pittsburgh.

2922
02:20:27,400 --> 02:20:27,640
Speaker 2: TJ.

2923
02:20:27,760 --> 02:20:29,640
Speaker 5: Watt banged up a little bit, but he's gonna go.

2924
02:20:30,280 --> 02:20:33,199
Speaker 5: But am I wrong to at least have my eyebrow

2925
02:20:33,360 --> 02:20:35,840
Speaker 5: rais going? There could be something brewing for a team

2926
02:20:35,959 --> 02:20:39,440
Speaker 5: that I think we all anticipated would be a Major

2927
02:20:39,520 --> 02:20:40,240
Speaker 5: league struggle.

2928
02:20:43,840 --> 02:20:47,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like everyone thought this team would struggle.

2929
02:20:47,480 --> 02:20:50,520
Speaker 4: And it's one of the things that's so funny about

2930
02:20:50,520 --> 02:20:52,440
Speaker 4: the league. You just don't know and when the team's

2931
02:20:52,480 --> 02:20:56,880
Speaker 4: gonna kiss their stride, you know, coaching and like the

2932
02:20:57,720 --> 02:21:00,560
Speaker 4: big mo as we talk about momentum. Momentum brings about

2933
02:21:00,600 --> 02:21:04,320
Speaker 4: confidence and things can change in a moment and a

2934
02:21:04,400 --> 02:21:09,280
Speaker 4: moment's notice. You know, It's it's funny because as you're

2935
02:21:09,320 --> 02:21:11,560
Speaker 4: kind of surveying the landscape and just trying to figure

2936
02:21:11,600 --> 02:21:14,879
Speaker 4: out which teams to buy into. One thing that tends

2937
02:21:14,959 --> 02:21:19,240
Speaker 4: to be the common denominator quarterback play. Six of the

2938
02:21:19,360 --> 02:21:23,920
Speaker 4: top teams have elite quarterbacks in position, Like, the best

2939
02:21:24,040 --> 02:21:26,560
Speaker 4: quarterback in the division is the one on the team

2940
02:21:26,640 --> 02:21:29,520
Speaker 4: that is leading the division. And so you got to

2941
02:21:29,560 --> 02:21:32,520
Speaker 4: find a way to get the quarterback playing well, whether

2942
02:21:32,560 --> 02:21:34,840
Speaker 4: that's through his own talent, whether that's through the scheming

2943
02:21:34,879 --> 02:21:37,960
Speaker 4: and the tactics. The better your quarterback plays, the more

2944
02:21:38,080 --> 02:21:39,720
Speaker 4: likely your team is going to be in the Winter Circle.

2945
02:21:41,600 --> 02:21:44,000
Speaker 5: So looking at what they've they've been able to accomplish

2946
02:21:44,160 --> 02:21:46,320
Speaker 5: thus far. With Matthew Stafford, I mean, we just had

2947
02:21:46,320 --> 02:21:48,840
Speaker 5: a lot of questions about his health. I never bought

2948
02:21:48,879 --> 02:21:51,320
Speaker 5: any in the retirement stuff because he had sixty million

2949
02:21:51,400 --> 02:21:55,320
Speaker 5: reasons not to. But you're you're looking at at a

2950
02:21:55,400 --> 02:21:58,960
Speaker 5: squad that that at three and three, they had that

2951
02:21:59,680 --> 02:22:03,640
Speaker 5: great win off the jump against Seattle, punched them in

2952
02:22:03,720 --> 02:22:07,640
Speaker 5: the face, and then the next week you battled San Francisco. Well,

2953
02:22:07,800 --> 02:22:11,320
Speaker 5: I mean along long the way the Bengals, while they

2954
02:22:11,440 --> 02:22:15,240
Speaker 5: weren't and maybe they still aren't the Bengals we anticipated.

2955
02:22:15,600 --> 02:22:19,720
Speaker 5: It's a narrow loss there, and even with Philadelph.

2956
02:22:19,879 --> 02:22:25,320
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford is yeah, yeah, Matthew Stafford is playing pretty well.

2957
02:22:25,360 --> 02:22:27,439
Speaker 3: He's playing pretty well because they gave him twinsies.

2958
02:22:27,879 --> 02:22:28,000
Speaker 8: Right.

2959
02:22:28,080 --> 02:22:31,000
Speaker 4: You got Cooper Cup and Pooka Nikola like who are

2960
02:22:31,040 --> 02:22:35,720
Speaker 4: basically the identical player, you know, size wise, strength wise,

2961
02:22:35,920 --> 02:22:37,920
Speaker 4: speed wise, and so they found a way to kind

2962
02:22:37,959 --> 02:22:40,240
Speaker 4: of create that part of it. And to be honest,

2963
02:22:40,720 --> 02:22:43,400
Speaker 4: it's disappointed that Karen Williams had to go on IR,

2964
02:22:43,560 --> 02:22:46,400
Speaker 4: but they found a running game and the common denominator

2965
02:22:46,440 --> 02:22:49,160
Speaker 4: of the running game and the balance that they had

2966
02:22:49,200 --> 02:22:52,360
Speaker 4: with the intermediate passing game allowed their offense to flow.

2967
02:22:52,480 --> 02:22:55,960
Speaker 4: And Sean McVay is invigorated by the challenge of bringing

2968
02:22:56,000 --> 02:22:58,160
Speaker 4: this team back. So it was working well. They still

2969
02:22:58,200 --> 02:22:59,560
Speaker 4: have a chance. I think they're gonna be a team

2970
02:22:59,600 --> 02:23:01,600
Speaker 4: that is a one and a lot of teams side

2971
02:23:01,959 --> 02:23:04,400
Speaker 4: because they're just good enough to win. I don't know

2972
02:23:04,480 --> 02:23:08,320
Speaker 4: if Dig good enough to be a legitimate playoff team though,

2973
02:23:08,480 --> 02:23:11,160
Speaker 4: like maybe they backdoor in as like the last wild Card.

2974
02:23:11,520 --> 02:23:13,520
Speaker 4: I just don't see him as a high end playoff team.

2975
02:23:13,600 --> 02:23:16,400
Speaker 5: Well just you know. It's another example though, like for

2976
02:23:16,560 --> 02:23:19,120
Speaker 5: Smith and I from our Bully pulpits heer at Fox

2977
02:23:19,120 --> 02:23:22,440
Speaker 5: Sports Radio. We've really helped the Rams a lot the

2978
02:23:22,560 --> 02:23:25,760
Speaker 5: last couple of years. With the help of Eric Dickerson,

2979
02:23:26,240 --> 02:23:29,080
Speaker 5: we got rid of Jeff Fisher and the regime change happened.

2980
02:23:29,320 --> 02:23:31,920
Speaker 5: Still waiting on my Super Bowl ring for that. And

2981
02:23:32,040 --> 02:23:34,920
Speaker 5: then once Sean McVeigh the reports were that he was

2982
02:23:34,959 --> 02:23:37,400
Speaker 5: potentially leading, I think we bullied him back to the

2983
02:23:37,480 --> 02:23:40,000
Speaker 5: sideline saying what it gets hard and now you're gonna leave.

2984
02:23:42,320 --> 02:23:44,800
Speaker 5: So I want some credit for what the RAMS had

2985
02:23:44,920 --> 02:23:46,600
Speaker 5: in their second iteration here, Bucky.

2986
02:23:48,520 --> 02:23:50,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so you want to look for you need

2987
02:23:51,520 --> 02:23:54,000
Speaker 4: less need to bring you one of those FM picks

2988
02:23:54,080 --> 02:23:57,480
Speaker 4: T shirts because from your bully pulpit, y'all were able

2989
02:23:57,560 --> 02:24:00,640
Speaker 4: to get the Rams all fixed. And I agree with you,

2990
02:24:01,240 --> 02:24:03,200
Speaker 4: Simon Vey needed to be bullied the bet you can't

2991
02:24:03,240 --> 02:24:05,360
Speaker 4: walk out now, you can't walk out like after they're

2992
02:24:05,400 --> 02:24:06,600
Speaker 4: down and be like, oh, you know what, I'm going

2993
02:24:06,600 --> 02:24:07,280
Speaker 4: to TV Land.

2994
02:24:07,840 --> 02:24:09,400
Speaker 3: No, you got to take some of these als.

2995
02:24:09,640 --> 02:24:11,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean we would. You know, obviously you're gonna

2996
02:24:11,720 --> 02:24:14,120
Speaker 5: make a lot of money and people curious because of

2997
02:24:14,160 --> 02:24:17,520
Speaker 5: that football mind. Right, We've seen so many clips through

2998
02:24:17,560 --> 02:24:20,160
Speaker 5: the years of Hey, I can recall plays from a

2999
02:24:20,280 --> 02:24:23,200
Speaker 5: decade to go down distance, sequencing all of this stuff.

3000
02:24:23,440 --> 02:24:26,119
Speaker 5: That's all great and that would play well on television,

3001
02:24:26,440 --> 02:24:28,760
Speaker 5: but there's always going to be the why why'd you

3002
02:24:28,840 --> 02:24:32,640
Speaker 5: quit when it got hard? Like your legacy, Like even

3003
02:24:32,640 --> 02:24:34,760
Speaker 5: if you came back and get drummed another year or

3004
02:24:34,800 --> 02:24:37,400
Speaker 5: two and then it's time to move on. Okay, but

3005
02:24:37,640 --> 02:24:40,600
Speaker 5: after one year where things didn't go your way and

3006
02:24:40,879 --> 02:24:43,680
Speaker 5: a little bit of the struggle bus pulled up, Yeah,

3007
02:24:43,760 --> 02:24:45,680
Speaker 5: that would have that would have been a big loss,

3008
02:24:45,720 --> 02:24:49,520
Speaker 5: I think for us watching watching teams and players, but

3009
02:24:49,640 --> 02:24:52,720
Speaker 5: certainly when you're trying to evaluate where a coach is

3010
02:24:52,800 --> 02:24:55,360
Speaker 5: and let's face it, McVeigh with his first couple of years,

3011
02:24:55,720 --> 02:24:57,560
Speaker 5: there's a lot of talk about, you know, you start

3012
02:24:57,600 --> 02:24:59,840
Speaker 5: getting into all time stuff because that's what we do.

3013
02:25:00,440 --> 02:25:04,680
Speaker 5: We started extrapolating and comparing and all right through five years,

3014
02:25:04,840 --> 02:25:06,800
Speaker 5: this is what this guy did as a coach or

3015
02:25:07,240 --> 02:25:11,480
Speaker 5: quarterback or whatever we're dissecting in the moment that suddenly

3016
02:25:11,600 --> 02:25:13,800
Speaker 5: for micveigh it was gonna be the Yeah, he had

3017
02:25:13,840 --> 02:25:16,160
Speaker 5: a good run, but remember when things got hard?

3018
02:25:19,400 --> 02:25:21,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it matters.

3019
02:25:23,360 --> 02:25:25,960
Speaker 4: This stuff matters, how you handle aversity, all this stuff matters.

3020
02:25:26,080 --> 02:25:27,240
Speaker 4: In fact, it is into the equation.

3021
02:25:27,680 --> 02:25:29,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what we were talking about a little bit

3022
02:25:29,320 --> 02:25:32,880
Speaker 5: earlier with these young quarterbacks that'll be draft eligible for

3023
02:25:33,000 --> 02:25:35,960
Speaker 5: twenty twenty four. I'm seeing a big breaking news piece

3024
02:25:36,680 --> 02:25:39,440
Speaker 5: from game day morning that Tyson Bage it will have

3025
02:25:39,600 --> 02:25:44,880

02:25:47,879 --> 02:25:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so funny.

3028
02:25:48,640 --> 02:25:51,240
Speaker 4: Like you when you started saying sixty five, I was like,

3029
02:25:51,280 --> 02:25:53,160
Speaker 4: what they are already talking about how many plays you'll

3030
02:25:53,160 --> 02:25:54,080
Speaker 4: have it as disposal?

3031
02:25:54,520 --> 02:25:56,400
Speaker 3: Like I was just trying to figure out, like, like

3032
02:25:56,560 --> 02:26:00,200
Speaker 3: why and you wonder what guys are confused? Okay, That's

3033
02:26:00,240 --> 02:26:00,800
Speaker 3: what I was like.

3034
02:26:00,879 --> 02:26:02,640
Speaker 5: I was like this, this is what Where's he going?

3035
02:26:02,760 --> 02:26:03,400

02:26:44,160 --> 02:26:47,920
Speaker 5: to talk about the who's who in the racing industry

3050
02:26:48,160 --> 02:26:51,320
Speaker 5: all assembled at Santa Anita. Now we're gonna turn it

3051
02:26:51,360 --> 02:26:55,080
Speaker 5: over to Isaac Loewencron Bucky. He might have some other notes.

3052
02:26:55,120 --> 02:26:58,360
Speaker 5: Maybe he's got some to dos on Tyson Pagent and

3053
02:26:58,520 --> 02:27:01,160
Speaker 5: some of the other luminaries for week seven. You can

3054
02:27:01,200 --> 02:27:04,840
Speaker 5: also find Isaac on Twitter at Isaac Loankong. He is

3055
02:27:04,959 --> 02:27:08,880
Speaker 5: the voice of the Angel CITYFC. Here a tough loss

3056
02:27:08,959 --> 02:27:13,320
Speaker 5: on Friday night, but listening all year. I love the

3057
02:27:14,080 --> 02:27:17,879
Speaker 5: syncing up the audio and video. ILO fantastic year. Look

3058
02:27:17,920 --> 02:27:18,680
Speaker 5: forward to the next one.

3059
02:27:19,000 --> 02:27:21,640
Speaker 10: Thank you, appreciate that and appreciate all the support Mike

3060
02:27:21,720 --> 02:27:24,680
Speaker 10: and Yeah, it was their first ever trip to the playoffs.

3061
02:27:25,000 --> 02:27:27,600
Speaker 10: They had a great run to make the playoffs over

3062
02:27:27,640 --> 02:27:30,240
Speaker 10: the second half of the regular season. It was a great,

3063
02:27:30,400 --> 02:27:34,720
Speaker 10: great ride. I'm thinking of the ride though for mister Bagent. Guys,

3064
02:27:34,720 --> 02:27:37,680
Speaker 10: if I'm not mistaken, I mean, these players have to

3065
02:27:37,800 --> 02:27:41,440
Speaker 10: play pay for their own tickets for family members. I

3066
02:27:41,560 --> 02:27:44,640
Speaker 10: assume they get some sort of comps, but not like

3067
02:27:45,320 --> 02:27:49,080
Speaker 10: sixty two, So in that case, having a lot of

3068
02:27:49,280 --> 02:27:53,240
Speaker 10: friends and family might not be that advantageous to the pocketbook.

3069
02:27:53,520 --> 02:27:55,480
Speaker 10: We will start with Game five of the National League

3070
02:27:55,520 --> 02:27:58,560
Speaker 10: Championship Series. On Saturday, I saw the Philadelphia Phillies win

3071
02:27:58,600 --> 02:28:00,720
Speaker 10: an Arizona six to one to take three games to

3072
02:28:00,760 --> 02:28:03,840
Speaker 10: two lead on home runs by Kyle Schwarber, jt Real Muto,

3073
02:28:03,920 --> 02:28:07,400
Speaker 10: and Bryce Harper. Harper also stole home plate, by the way.

3074
02:28:07,879 --> 02:28:11,240
Speaker 10: In college football on Saturday night, number eighteen usc l

3075
02:28:11,240 --> 02:28:14,560
Speaker 10: at fourteenth ranked Utah thirty two to thirty one in

3076
02:28:14,640 --> 02:28:17,440
Speaker 10: the final seconds with Utah's Cole Becker lining up a

3077
02:28:17,520 --> 02:28:19,080
Speaker 10: thirty eight yard field goal attempt.

3078
02:28:19,320 --> 02:28:22,800
Speaker 2: Here was Bill Riley on k a l l out

3079
02:28:22,840 --> 02:28:25,960
Speaker 2: of the hold of Jack Balmeister. The snap is back,

3080
02:28:26,080 --> 02:28:27,920
Speaker 2: the kick is away, it is up.

3081
02:28:28,000 --> 02:28:29,880
Speaker 3: Idiot is good.

3082
02:28:30,840 --> 02:28:35,720
Speaker 2: It's good, It's good, and the Utes have beat the

3083
02:28:35,879 --> 02:28:38,080
Speaker 2: Trojans at the Coliseum.

3084
02:28:38,320 --> 02:28:41,200
Speaker 10: Fourth ranked Florida State over number sixteen Duke thirty eight

3085
02:28:41,240 --> 02:28:45,160
Speaker 10: to twenty. Fifth ranked Washington held off Arizona State fifteen

3086
02:28:45,240 --> 02:28:48,200
Speaker 10: to seven. Washington was down seven to six with just

3087
02:28:48,320 --> 02:28:50,560
Speaker 10: over eight minutes left in the fourth quarter when the

3088
02:28:50,640 --> 02:28:53,840
Speaker 10: Huskies Michei L. Powell intercepted a pass and returned it

3089
02:28:54,000 --> 02:28:57,240
Speaker 10: eighty nine yards for the go ahead touchdown. Michael Pennix Junior,

3090
02:28:57,280 --> 02:28:59,480
Speaker 10: by the way, intercepted twice and lost to fumble end

3091
02:28:59,520 --> 02:29:02,520
Speaker 10: that game. Number thirteen Ole miss win again Auburn twenty

3092
02:29:02,600 --> 02:29:05,039
Speaker 10: eight to twenty one. Number two Michigan of forty nine

3093
02:29:05,040 --> 02:29:07,800
Speaker 10: to nothing victory at Michigan State, and number twenty five

3094
02:29:07,959 --> 02:29:11,600
Speaker 10: UCLA what at Stanford forty two to seven as UCLA's

3095
02:29:11,680 --> 02:29:15,959
Speaker 10: Carson Steel ran for three touchdowns on his twenty first birthday.

3096
02:29:16,120 --> 02:29:17,240
Speaker 5: Not bad, Happy birthday.

3097
02:29:17,240 --> 02:29:17,800
Speaker 2: Back to you guys.

3098
02:29:17,879 --> 02:29:19,880
Speaker 5: Yep, all right. I gotta ask Bucky, you're gonna like

3099
02:29:19,920 --> 02:29:22,120
Speaker 5: this one. You got a house divided there, Ilo, I

3100
02:29:22,200 --> 02:29:26,560
Speaker 5: know the U UCLA USC thing. So when the scales

3101
02:29:26,720 --> 02:29:31,400
Speaker 5: start to change there and it's a little heavier on

3102
02:29:31,480 --> 02:29:35,720
Speaker 5: the other side, i e. Proficiency for UCLA right now

3103
02:29:35,879 --> 02:29:39,400
Speaker 5: and playing well and USC and Lincoln Riley being a

3104
02:29:39,440 --> 02:29:42,240
Speaker 5: bit mealy mouthed, that's suppressor, correct. How's it going in

3105
02:29:42,280 --> 02:29:42,800
Speaker 5: the house there?

3106
02:29:42,959 --> 02:29:47,000
Speaker 10: That's a great question because the scales are so heavily

3107
02:29:47,120 --> 02:29:51,360
Speaker 10: tipped against me, even under the best of circumstances, USC

3108
02:29:51,560 --> 02:29:55,520
Speaker 10: could be the defending national champions and UCLA could be winless.

3109
02:29:55,720 --> 02:30:00,200
Speaker 10: Yet according to my beloved and long suffering wife, who

3110
02:30:00,400 --> 02:30:03,800
Speaker 10: literally every time we drive by the USC campus, like

3111
02:30:03,840 --> 02:30:05,960
Speaker 10: on the one ten, she holds her breath the whole time,

3112
02:30:06,280 --> 02:30:09,960
Speaker 10: and she says that the whole campus should be demolished.

3113
02:30:10,320 --> 02:30:14,800
Speaker 10: So yeah, it's it's tilted against USC, even in the

3114
02:30:14,840 --> 02:30:17,760
Speaker 10: best of USC circumstances, So you can imagine how things

3115
02:30:17,800 --> 02:30:18,200
Speaker 10: aren't down.

3116
02:30:18,280 --> 02:30:21,119
Speaker 5: Wow, I really thought she was yelling earmuffs to the kids,

3117
02:30:21,200 --> 02:30:24,560
Speaker 5: and you know, a bunch of oh she does that

3118
02:30:24,640 --> 02:30:28,040
Speaker 5: any stuff? Okay, good, there you go, Bucky. We had

3119
02:30:28,080 --> 02:30:30,000
Speaker 5: to get a live look inside ILO's house.

3120
02:30:32,120 --> 02:30:35,520
Speaker 3: Mmm. That's tough. Yeah, it's tough.

3121
02:30:36,600 --> 02:30:39,879
Speaker 5: And he's laughing and cackling like a mad man at

3122
02:30:39,959 --> 02:30:42,199
Speaker 5: Isaac Lohan Khan. You want to send him some condolences

3123
02:30:42,560 --> 02:30:45,240
Speaker 5: or you want to help his wife with some one liners,

3124
02:30:45,879 --> 02:30:48,320
Speaker 5: you can do that as well. We continue here Fox

3125
02:30:48,360 --> 02:30:51,480
Speaker 5: Sports Radio Big Week seven in the National Football League.

3126
02:30:51,480 --> 02:30:51,600
Speaker 1: Here.

3127
02:30:51,680 --> 02:30:56,280
Speaker 5: Bucky talked a little about it earlier Cleveland, Indianapolis. You

3128
02:30:56,360 --> 02:30:58,080
Speaker 5: know one of the games I think that has a

3129
02:30:58,160 --> 02:31:01,840
Speaker 5: lot of meaning but doesn't have the marquee value you

3130
02:31:01,920 --> 02:31:05,760
Speaker 5: know of Detroit, Baltimore or Chargers, Chiefs and some of

3131
02:31:05,840 --> 02:31:10,400
Speaker 5: that stuff. Cleveland three and a half favorites early in

3132
02:31:10,400 --> 02:31:12,039
Speaker 5: the week, he could have gotten it at minus two.

3133
02:31:12,200 --> 02:31:15,640
Speaker 5: And now Deshaun Watson is back, Jerome Ford running the

3134
02:31:15,680 --> 02:31:19,960
Speaker 5: football for them, Amari Cooper, who from a statistical standpoint,

3135
02:31:20,080 --> 02:31:21,920
Speaker 5: hit and miss week to week. What they've been able

3136
02:31:21,959 --> 02:31:24,320
Speaker 5: to do in the passing game. On the other side

3137
02:31:24,360 --> 02:31:28,120
Speaker 5: for Indianapolis more Jonathan Taylor and Zach Moss, but Gardner

3138
02:31:28,280 --> 02:31:32,840
Speaker 5: Minshew under center, and I guess the Cleveland defense is

3139
02:31:32,879 --> 02:31:35,320
Speaker 5: really the thing to write home about, right, one thousand

3140
02:31:35,320 --> 02:31:38,520
Speaker 5: and two total yards allowed as we go into week

3141
02:31:38,600 --> 02:31:40,440
Speaker 5: seven of a National Football League season.

3142
02:31:42,720 --> 02:31:45,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really phenomenal what they've been able to do. Jims.

3143
02:31:45,480 --> 02:31:47,480
Speaker 4: Fortz has done a really good job of basically playing

3144
02:31:47,560 --> 02:31:51,200
Speaker 4: matchup ball on defense. He matches up his personnel to

3145
02:31:52,040 --> 02:31:56,680
Speaker 4: take advantage of we called it the fish, to take.

3146
02:31:56,560 --> 02:32:01,080
Speaker 3: Advantage of the weak person on the offensive line.

3147
02:32:01,280 --> 02:32:04,000
Speaker 4: They also match up in the back end, playing a

3148
02:32:04,040 --> 02:32:07,000
Speaker 4: lot of man and man coverage in the secondary. And

3149
02:32:07,120 --> 02:32:09,800
Speaker 4: what it's allowed them to do is their blue Chippers

3150
02:32:09,800 --> 02:32:12,320
Speaker 4: are beating your blue chippers. Because they have more of them.

3151
02:32:12,800 --> 02:32:15,680
Speaker 4: And it is as simple as that. We can talk

3152
02:32:15,680 --> 02:32:18,680
Speaker 4: about the x's and o's yielding to the Jimmies and Joel's,

3153
02:32:18,959 --> 02:32:21,400
Speaker 4: but Jim Schwartz has unlocked the Jimmies and Joel's, which

3154
02:32:21,400 --> 02:32:22,840
Speaker 4: is why the Browns are getting it done well.

3155
02:32:22,879 --> 02:32:25,720
Speaker 5: We've certainly seen it in his head to heads against

3156
02:32:26,240 --> 02:32:29,640
Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan. Right historically, we watched it last week and

3157
02:32:29,720 --> 02:32:32,840
Speaker 5: other w another pelt on the wall, as you like

3158
02:32:32,920 --> 02:32:34,840
Speaker 5: to say, I do have to ask this, did you

3159
02:32:34,840 --> 02:32:37,520
Speaker 5: guys take the fish? I mean, did that exist before

3160
02:32:37,680 --> 02:32:41,760
Speaker 5: Shawshank or did you take it after that? And do

3161
02:32:41,840 --> 02:32:44,320
Speaker 5: you actually call the guy out in those terms on

3162
02:32:44,400 --> 02:32:48,959
Speaker 5: the field, I mean, hey, mackerel, mackerel.

3163
02:32:49,080 --> 02:32:49,320
Speaker 3: You know.

3164
02:32:51,879 --> 02:32:55,360
Speaker 4: Nah, but we like, yeah, the fish has been that's

3165
02:32:55,480 --> 02:32:57,360
Speaker 4: existed for a long time. But once you find the fish,

3166
02:32:57,400 --> 02:32:59,640
Speaker 4: you got to go after him whoever the weak link is.

3167
02:33:00,000 --> 02:33:02,800
Speaker 4: It's really about exploiting that. And that's something that's more

3168
02:33:02,959 --> 02:33:07,400
Speaker 4: old school in terms of the approach because I hate

3169
02:33:07,440 --> 02:33:09,600
Speaker 4: to take it like back in my day, but in practice,

3170
02:33:10,200 --> 02:33:12,000
Speaker 4: when you're on scout team, they used to put the

3171
02:33:12,040 --> 02:33:15,160
Speaker 4: person that they were targeting in a yellow penny, a

3172
02:33:15,280 --> 02:33:18,480
Speaker 4: yellow little Jersey, so that corner would be like, he's

3173
02:33:18,560 --> 02:33:21,360
Speaker 4: the target for the day, and all the scout team routes,

3174
02:33:21,400 --> 02:33:23,200
Speaker 4: all the things that were drawn up on the cards

3175
02:33:23,520 --> 02:33:26,040
Speaker 4: were designed to make sure that we're attacking that corner

3176
02:33:26,160 --> 02:33:28,040
Speaker 4: because the goal was to run them off the field.

3177
02:33:28,560 --> 02:33:32,240
Speaker 4: And it's continued to exist and now you're seeing guys

3178
02:33:32,680 --> 02:33:35,440
Speaker 4: like everyone has seen the viral eclipse of Miles Garrett

3179
02:33:35,480 --> 02:33:39,480
Speaker 4: doing the basketball crossover before he attacked some overmatched guard

3180
02:33:39,879 --> 02:33:42,560
Speaker 4: on a pass rush. That's basically the premise, and Jim

3181
02:33:42,640 --> 02:33:45,320
Speaker 4: Schwartz has freed his guys to have that kind of

3182
02:33:45,360 --> 02:33:47,080
Speaker 4: control and to be able to go after people like that.

3183
02:33:47,160 --> 02:33:49,480
Speaker 5: Bucky, it looks like my man's playing duck duck goose

3184
02:33:49,560 --> 02:33:52,680
Speaker 5: out there. Which one? Which one will it be?

3185
02:33:52,959 --> 02:33:56,160
Speaker 3: Which one? Who gets it? Now? Yeah?

3186
02:33:56,280 --> 02:33:59,080
Speaker 5: Who's the fish on this play? And this scheme that

3187
02:33:59,160 --> 02:34:02,160
Speaker 5: I see you're drawing up against us, And that has

3188
02:34:02,240 --> 02:34:04,680
Speaker 5: been one of the most entertaining things through six weeks.

3189
02:34:04,920 --> 02:34:08,240
Speaker 5: I know, just some they find it. It angers them

3190
02:34:08,360 --> 02:34:11,039
Speaker 5: and you know, the sanctity or whatever. It's like if

3191
02:34:11,080 --> 02:34:13,280
Speaker 5: he's finding an edge and getting into guys heads and

3192
02:34:13,400 --> 02:34:16,480
Speaker 5: finding the weak link on a line, what how am

3193
02:34:16,520 --> 02:34:19,960
Speaker 5: I gonna complain about it. He's showing out for the

3194
02:34:20,040 --> 02:34:21,520
Speaker 5: guy that we expected him to be.

3195
02:34:23,680 --> 02:34:26,879
Speaker 4: He is, and he's he's been phenomenal. I mean he's

3196
02:34:26,959 --> 02:34:31,680
Speaker 4: really been phenomenal in every regard. I mean he is

3197
02:34:31,959 --> 02:34:35,080
Speaker 4: even better. You have Trent Williams giving him gold jacket kudos.

3198
02:34:35,640 --> 02:34:39,080
Speaker 4: That to me speaks volumes. When players start to give

3199
02:34:39,160 --> 02:34:43,080
Speaker 4: that kind of stuff in game, the respect is earned

3200
02:34:43,320 --> 02:34:44,080
Speaker 4: and it's real.

3201
02:34:44,440 --> 02:34:46,520
Speaker 5: No question about it. We're live here at the tyrac

3202
02:34:46,600 --> 02:34:49,400
Speaker 5: dot com Fox Sports Radio Studios. A couple of more

3203
02:34:49,480 --> 02:34:51,920
Speaker 5: games to get to on our NFL slate as we

3204
02:34:52,000 --> 02:34:54,119
Speaker 5: look at things through the first third of the year.

3205
02:34:54,280 --> 02:34:57,120
Speaker 5: That's right, six weeks. There's eighteen total because of the

3206
02:34:57,200 --> 02:34:59,720
Speaker 5: buys and all that fun and the added game at

3207
02:34:59,720 --> 02:35:02,040
Speaker 5: the back end of the schedule. We celebrate them all.

3208
02:35:02,360 --> 02:35:05,360
Speaker 5: So we'll do that and we'll find our chicken and

3209
02:35:05,440 --> 02:35:07,920
Speaker 5: beer game of the day as well. What are we

3210
02:35:07,959 --> 02:35:10,520
Speaker 5: sitting down and giving our rapt attention to look, we

3211
02:35:10,640 --> 02:35:12,640
Speaker 5: celebrate them all, but let's face it, our heads are

3212
02:35:12,720 --> 02:35:15,800
Speaker 5: on swivels and you need the neck massagers working overtime.

3213
02:35:16,040 --> 02:35:19,080
Speaker 5: Where are we fixating our locks? Later on today? We'll

3214
02:35:19,120 --> 02:35:21,279
Speaker 5: talk about that coming up next year on Fox Football

3215
02:35:21,320 --> 02:35:27,160
Speaker 5: Sunday Back Inn It's Fox Football Sunday, Fox Sports Radio.

3216
02:35:27,240 --> 02:35:30,520
Speaker 5: Mike Carmon Bucky Brooks with you here live from the

3217
02:35:30,600 --> 02:35:33,720
Speaker 5: tyraq dot com Fox Sports Radio studios, a little over

3218
02:35:33,840 --> 02:35:38,240
Speaker 5: three hours to kickoff. Check your fantasy lineups. Lots of

3219
02:35:38,320 --> 02:35:42,879
Speaker 5: injuries littering the fields today. It's a very difficult point

3220
02:35:42,920 --> 02:35:47,360
Speaker 5: in the year, my hope, and you know, Bucky, I

3221
02:35:47,440 --> 02:35:50,480
Speaker 5: do this every year. I do the extra prayer on

3222
02:35:50,680 --> 02:35:55,120
Speaker 5: Sunday mornings for offensive linemen because trying to find five

3223
02:35:55,360 --> 02:35:58,560
Speaker 5: on any given team that are ready and able to

3224
02:35:58,640 --> 02:36:01,240
Speaker 5: go without a bunch of red letters next to their

3225
02:36:01,360 --> 02:36:05,000
Speaker 5: names in the scorecard is a very difficult proposition. And

3226
02:36:05,080 --> 02:36:07,800
Speaker 5: we've been talking a lot this week about scoring being down,

3227
02:36:07,959 --> 02:36:12,240
Speaker 5: talk about penalties, We talk about young quarterbacks being thrust

3228
02:36:12,320 --> 02:36:15,920
Speaker 5: in and some of those veterans being away. But I

3229
02:36:16,080 --> 02:36:19,360
Speaker 5: keep coming back to offensive line play around this league,

3230
02:36:19,440 --> 02:36:22,359
Speaker 5: and you know, there's no team that I think exemplifies

3231
02:36:22,440 --> 02:36:25,000
Speaker 5: it better than what we've seen go on with the

3232
02:36:25,080 --> 02:36:28,480
Speaker 5: New York Football Giants and what can only be described

3233
02:36:28,480 --> 02:36:30,080
Speaker 5: as a turnstyle at this point.

3234
02:36:31,600 --> 02:36:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean offense. The line play is everything. If

3235
02:36:33,680 --> 02:36:35,920
Speaker 4: you can't control the line of scrimmage. It's hard to

3236
02:36:36,000 --> 02:36:39,160
Speaker 4: win games. And you're seeing the teams that struggle at

3237
02:36:39,200 --> 02:36:41,240
Speaker 4: the point of attack are unable to get any kind

3238
02:36:41,240 --> 02:36:43,800
Speaker 4: of consistent push, not only in the run game, but

3239
02:36:43,840 --> 02:36:45,720
Speaker 4: they can't do anything passing.

3240
02:36:46,280 --> 02:36:48,600
Speaker 3: And everyone has always wondered why.

3241
02:36:48,520 --> 02:36:50,000
Speaker 4: You know you can't. You don't have pads on. You

3242
02:36:50,040 --> 02:36:52,440
Speaker 4: don't have fourteen days of pads. I think it's the

3243
02:36:52,480 --> 02:36:53,920
Speaker 4: last that maybe it's going up to sixteen, but you

3244
02:36:54,000 --> 02:36:57,279
Speaker 4: only have fourteen days of pads and practice like paddick

3245
02:36:57,320 --> 02:37:00,040
Speaker 4: practices that you can use during the regular season. A

3246
02:37:00,040 --> 02:37:02,039
Speaker 4: lot of this has to be done during jog throughs

3247
02:37:02,080 --> 02:37:05,240
Speaker 4: and walkthroughs, and can you get the physical element that

3248
02:37:05,400 --> 02:37:08,200
Speaker 4: you need to be a physical team at the point of.

3249
02:37:08,200 --> 02:37:11,400
Speaker 3: Attack while also taking the pads off.

3250
02:37:11,440 --> 02:37:13,560
Speaker 4: And so the teams that have mastered that approach and

3251
02:37:13,600 --> 02:37:15,560
Speaker 4: practice are the ones that are able to be successful.

3252
02:37:15,879 --> 02:37:18,000
Speaker 4: It comes down to your personnel at the point of attack.

3253
02:37:18,200 --> 02:37:21,119
Speaker 5: I'm glad you brought back the l that is always

3254
02:37:21,160 --> 02:37:24,240
Speaker 5: taken in collective bargaining. We'll take the extra days off

3255
02:37:24,280 --> 02:37:27,520
Speaker 5: in no pads. What about healthcare long term? What about

3256
02:37:27,560 --> 02:37:31,280
Speaker 5: these other things? No less padded practice, no two a days?

3257
02:37:31,920 --> 02:37:35,280
Speaker 3: Okay, sr Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean I understand that.

3258
02:37:35,360 --> 02:37:38,200
Speaker 4: I understand it from a physical standpoint, and talking to

3259
02:37:38,240 --> 02:37:41,120
Speaker 4: the Jacks coming back from London after they did back

3260
02:37:41,160 --> 02:37:43,800
Speaker 4: to back weekends there ten days away, came back, had

3261
02:37:43,840 --> 02:37:44,000
Speaker 4: to have.

3262
02:37:44,959 --> 02:37:47,279
Speaker 5: Well, they didn't get the week off. Let you normally

3263
02:37:47,360 --> 02:37:48,000
Speaker 5: get Yeah.

3264
02:37:48,240 --> 02:37:49,280
Speaker 3: No, they didn't get a week off.

3265
02:37:49,360 --> 02:37:50,879
Speaker 4: Had to come back in practice, and so they took

3266
02:37:50,920 --> 02:37:52,720
Speaker 4: the pads off the entire week, then had to turn

3267
02:37:52,760 --> 02:37:55,440
Speaker 4: around and have another short week where you certainly don't

3268
02:37:55,480 --> 02:37:57,200
Speaker 4: put on pads. You just kind of walked through and

3269
02:37:57,280 --> 02:37:59,240
Speaker 4: jogged through and make it more of a mental time.

3270
02:38:00,040 --> 02:38:04,000
Speaker 4: I understand that from a body standpoint, but in terms

3271
02:38:04,000 --> 02:38:06,520
Speaker 4: of skilled development, it just makes it hard. I mean,

3272
02:38:06,600 --> 02:38:08,879
Speaker 4: football is to be played by football players who are

3273
02:38:08,959 --> 02:38:10,720
Speaker 4: kind of doned in the pass and kind of going

3274
02:38:10,800 --> 02:38:13,720
Speaker 4: through the rigors of that process of toughing yourself up

3275
02:38:13,760 --> 02:38:17,320
Speaker 4: and preparing for the fight that is on each and

3276
02:38:17,360 --> 02:38:19,720
Speaker 4: every Sunday. But you can't do that, So it changes

3277
02:38:19,800 --> 02:38:22,760
Speaker 4: the way that it looks to the neicked eye.

3278
02:38:22,959 --> 02:38:25,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, while you were off in London, Jason fitz in

3279
02:38:25,959 --> 02:38:29,480
Speaker 5: your stead, I did it in passionate about I don't know,

3280
02:38:29,520 --> 02:38:30,560
Speaker 5: I want to say it was about eight and a

3281
02:38:30,560 --> 02:38:33,000
Speaker 5: half minute monologue about how much I hate the scheduling

3282
02:38:33,080 --> 02:38:36,160
Speaker 5: of the National Football League in terms of, hey, let's

3283
02:38:36,280 --> 02:38:40,280
Speaker 5: bookend you know in weeks fifteen through seventeen. Here's you know,

3284
02:38:40,480 --> 02:38:43,240
Speaker 5: your division rival twice in the final three weeks, or

3285
02:38:43,400 --> 02:38:46,240
Speaker 5: like the Ravens, we've played all your division road games

3286
02:38:46,320 --> 02:38:48,760
Speaker 5: through the first five weeks of the season, or what

3287
02:38:48,959 --> 02:38:52,120
Speaker 5: you guys had to endure with the Jaguars. That's a

3288
02:38:52,200 --> 02:38:54,080
Speaker 5: lot of football in a short amount of time, and

3289
02:38:54,480 --> 02:38:58,640
Speaker 5: sometimes you know, you'd lose someone in that stretch that

3290
02:38:58,959 --> 02:39:01,160
Speaker 5: really determines the the balance of your season.

3291
02:39:02,160 --> 02:39:06,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you absolutely can lose somebody that it's critical.

3292
02:39:07,040 --> 02:39:08,560
Speaker 4: And so the way that you practiced, the way that

3293
02:39:08,640 --> 02:39:11,520
Speaker 4: you kind of utilize your days and manage your time

3294
02:39:11,600 --> 02:39:12,920
Speaker 4: and all that other stuff, it matters.

02:39:26,480 --> 02:39:28,520
Speaker 5: As you look at the schedule today, we've highlighted a

3300
02:39:28,600 --> 02:39:33,120
Speaker 5: couple of the big games Chargers Chiefs, the Ravens hosting

3301
02:39:33,240 --> 02:39:37,119
Speaker 5: the Lions, and Miami Philadelphia, you know those three games

3302
02:39:37,200 --> 02:39:40,600
Speaker 5: the marquis which of the schedule if it's not one

3303
02:39:40,640 --> 02:39:43,320
Speaker 5: of those three, or even if it is, you know,

3304
02:39:43,480 --> 02:39:48,240
Speaker 5: Detroit Baltimore with tons of implications after the Ravens lost

3305
02:39:48,320 --> 02:39:51,000
Speaker 5: that game to Pittsburgh that I think people are still

3306
02:39:51,080 --> 02:39:53,760
Speaker 5: grousing over. But is there another game on the schedule

3307
02:39:53,879 --> 02:39:55,560
Speaker 5: that has your wrapped attention? Bucky?

3308
02:39:56,560 --> 02:39:58,200
Speaker 4: Well, I'm looking at I'm looking forward to seeing what

3309
02:39:58,280 --> 02:40:01,520
Speaker 4: the Niners look like. And the reason why is because

3310
02:40:01,560 --> 02:40:05,000
Speaker 4: all the conversation about Brock Perdy not having his super

3311
02:40:05,080 --> 02:40:08,160
Speaker 4: Friends or nice what you're talking about, Like, he doesn't

3312
02:40:08,200 --> 02:40:10,200
Speaker 4: have the super Friends, he doesn't have CMC, may not

3313
02:40:10,280 --> 02:40:12,400
Speaker 4: have Deebo, Samuel Trent's available.

3314
02:40:12,440 --> 02:40:13,120
Speaker 3: What does he look like?

3315
02:40:13,120 --> 02:40:15,760
Speaker 4: Because everyone talks about him and the system is the

3316
02:40:15,840 --> 02:40:17,920
Speaker 4: system that's propping him up. Well, now we'll get a

3317
02:40:18,000 --> 02:40:20,600
Speaker 4: chance to see him without the system the players support.

3318
02:40:21,040 --> 02:40:23,280
Speaker 5: Now I'm gonna watch a super cut of all the

3319
02:40:23,440 --> 02:40:27,120
Speaker 5: super Friends' intros with Ted Knight getting it done. He's

3320
02:40:27,160 --> 02:40:31,680
Speaker 5: Bucky Brooks enjoy that just watching day no working during

3321
02:40:31,720 --> 02:40:34,199
Speaker 5: a game countdown to kickoff next here on Fox,
