Jamart, what's going on? 12 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 3: Man? 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 4: Listen? I'll say this. 14 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 2: You know, the the Super Bowl. It can be talked 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 2: about and over talked about. I'm so glad that we 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: are finally here. I'm so fired up for this game. 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: How are you doing, sir? 18 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: I'm pretty excited too. I think there's a lot a 19 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 3: lot to dive into as it regards the matchup. Pretty 20 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 3: much avoided it all last week, and of course. 21 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 4: It we can avoid it. 22 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 2: We had the Trade of the century, the Trade of 23 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 2: the millennium, so we went in with a full list 24 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: of topics and then maybe the most inconceivable trade in 25 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 2: maybe sports history happened. 26 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 4: So I may catch you out, but it was one 27 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 4: a while. 28 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 3: No, that's true, But I mean it means that pretty 29 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: much everything we're gonna say regarding the games fresh. If 30 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 3: you listen to it us on a weekly basis, you're 31 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: not gonna hear too much repeated on this program. Tonight, 32 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 3: It's gonna be the first time we've really had to 33 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: look at this matchup in depth and talk about it. 34 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: So I'm definitely excited about that. You know, we're here, 35 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 3: We're ready for this, and I love this matchup. I 36 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 3: like this football game a lot. I can't wait to 37 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 3: see it. 38 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 2: So let's just dive in, you know, because we really didn't. 39 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: And you know, like you said, for people who listen 40 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: to us every week in this window a lot different 41 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: than people joining us now. The Luca trade is exactly 42 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: six days and twenty three hours old because it broke 43 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: an hour two of our show week and it really 44 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: upended everything that we want to talk about. So Jaymart, 45 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: let's just start from scratch, start from the beginning. I mean, 46 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 2: we know this game, we know this matchup. We've heard 47 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: all the great hosts on these airwaves for the last 48 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: two weeks talk about it, and we know the narratives, right, 49 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: the three p the history, you know whatever. 50 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 4: But I'm just going to open up the floor to you. 51 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: Give me the single most intriguing thing to you about 52 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 2: this game, whether it's an individual player, the history, narratives. 53 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: Just tell me what's most attriguing to you, because there 54 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 2: is so much to discuss it. As you said, we 55 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: actually didn't really get to talk about it very much 56 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: at all last week. 57 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've been thinking about this all day. I've 58 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 3: been wavering on it all day. We won't pick until 59 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: the end of the show. I'll throw out the question 60 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 3: and then I'll answer my own question at the end 61 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 3: of this broadcast. The Philadelphia Eagles are they the Tampa 62 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 3: Bay Buccaneers from a couple of years ago? Kansas City 63 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 3: wins these games all the time, but when they ran 64 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 3: into a rough, tough defense, a capable quarterback and you know, 65 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 3: an offensive line. I mean, what was the stat Patrick 66 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 3: Mahomes ran like two hundred and ninety yards in that game, 67 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: but it was all east and west because he was 68 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: running for his life the entire game from a defense 69 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 3: that was ferocious against him. And if he did get 70 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: the football off the secondary down the field was just 71 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: not having it. So if you take that and then 72 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 3: add into that Saquon Barkley, is that the kryptonite for 73 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. I think that's 74 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 3: the to me, that's the most important question on one side. 75 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 3: And then the flip side is but they're the Kansas 76 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: City Chiefs, And if there's anybody that can instill fear 77 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 3: in you just by existing as a football team, it 78 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 3: is that group with that quarterback and that head coach, 79 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: and that tight end and that pass rusher Chris Jones, 80 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: those and Steve's Magnolo. Those guys are gonna be ready 81 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 3: for the moment. Is the moment gonna capture the Philadelphia 82 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: Eagles at some point. So I think I think there 83 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: are questions on both sides that are intriguing here amidst 84 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 3: a million others, But those are the first two that 85 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: jump out. 86 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it stands out to me, and we could kind 87 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 2: of go in a direction from here. I think this 88 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: is the classic case of do you trust the coach 89 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 2: and the quarterback or do you trust the totality of 90 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: the parts. You know, I listen I don't think it's hyperbole, 91 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 2: and I'm sure everybody's discussed this all week. I think 92 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 2: you could legitimately argue every single position group outside of quarterback, 93 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: Philadelphia is better now ye yeah, clearly, And I want 94 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: to be clear for Casey fans listening, like you clearly 95 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: have individual talents. Chris Jones is amazing, you know whoever, 96 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey's. 97 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 3: Us better than God even though Goddard's. 98 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 2: Good exactly, and you know Xavier Worthies coming along like 99 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 2: it's not to say, oh, you know, you know they're 100 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: this poverty team that's being completely carried by Patrick Mahomes. 101 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: That's not what I'm saying at all. But you know, 102 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: running back obviously advantage Philly. Wide receivers advantage Philly. I 103 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: would say, O line, although they're banged up, advantage Philly 104 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 2: D line. The totality of the D line. I think 105 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: you could argue is is you know, is Philly linebackers? Okay, 106 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: maybe maybe it's case and then defensive backfield I would 107 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: probably say Philly. But the point I'm trying to make is, 108 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: you know, this is the oldest adage in football is 109 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: do you trust the coaching the quarterback? Do you trust 110 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 2: the some of the parts. You know, I remember having 111 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 2: this conversation with you. It's a random example, but I 112 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: do remember, like remember the year that Georgia played Bama 113 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: in the National Championship game in football, and that was 114 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,559 Speaker 2: kind of if you you know, I know you remember, 115 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: but for the audience that doesn't. Bama had beaten Georgia 116 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: a few weeks earlier, and it was but it was 117 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 2: a game where Georgia was just this this dominant defense, 118 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 2: you know, guys everywhere, and Bama, while it was still Bama, 119 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 2: it was kind of Bryce. 120 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 4: Young and you know, a bunch of guys. 121 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: And you know, there were maybe no great players, and 122 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: I think there were some injuries coming in for Bama, 123 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 2: and it was basically, do you trust save it and 124 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: Bryce Young or do you trust Kirby Smart and what 125 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: is probably a more talented roster. And that's just kind 126 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: of the way I feel about this game. And again, 127 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: we can get into it from any angle here and 128 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: we'll make our picks later in the show, but that's 129 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: just what it comes down to to me, is like, 130 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: can Mahomes overcome some deficiencies in other places relative to 131 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 2: what Philadelphia has, or is this the Philadelphia year where 132 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 2: the combination of Saquon the receivers, the defense, and of 133 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 2: course jal Jalen Hurts being a good but not great quarterback. 134 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: Will that ultimately be the difference? 135 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that's right, and I think 136 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 3: you know, if you want to have some fun with 137 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 3: it and you really want to think about it, when 138 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 3: is the last time that the better quarterback did not 139 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl? 140 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 4: That's a great question. 141 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: So last year, better quarterback one Mahomes, year before that, 142 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 3: better quarterback one Mahomes over Jay one Hurts. Despite the 143 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: fact that Hurts played a fantastic game year before, Stafford 144 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 3: beats Burrow by a field goal, largely because of Aaron Donald. 145 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: But I mean, Stafford's going to be a Hall of Famer. 146 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 3: Burrow is likely to be a Hall of Famer as well. 147 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: I think that's like a six and one a half 148 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: dozen of the other argument. Fifty five, you had Brady 149 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 3: versus Mahomes. Some would put that one and two on 150 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 3: the list in some order all time. Brady crush Mahomes 151 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: the defense and everything else. That was a thirty one 152 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 3: to nine game, but again, those guys are close. Then 153 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 3: you had Mahomes and Jimmy Garoppolo. Mahomes won the game, 154 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 3: tom Brady against Jared Goff. Tom Brady won the game, 155 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 3: and then you had Nick Foles over Tom Brady. And 156 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: there's your answer. Sure, that's really the last time that 157 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 3: it happened. I think it generally does not happen. It's 158 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: rare when it happens. That doesn't mean it's not going 159 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: to happen tomorrow. It does mean I think. I don't 160 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 3: think anyone is going to argue that Jaywen Hurts is 161 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 3: a better quarterback than Patrick Mahomes. So this would be 162 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 3: kind of the exception, not the rule generally when we 163 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 3: get to this point in the season. But Hurts has 164 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: already performed against this very team at an extremely high level. 165 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 3: So I don't know that the difference is that big. 166 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 3: But just to your point about the quarterback and the coach, 167 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: the quarterback means an awful lot when you get to 168 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 3: this point, as does the coach as a matter of fact, 169 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 3: because generally that stands to reason too. 170 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 4: Let me ask you a question. 171 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: You mentioned obviously, Jalen Hurts performing very well against these 172 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: Chiefs two years ago. Do you think the fact that 173 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: that Philadelphia has played Kansas City before, maybe some of 174 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: the fear factor wouldn't be there. And I think you 175 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: could look at it one of two ways is that, well, 176 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: you know Allan and all of them face face him 177 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 2: every year in the playoffs, and they still seem to 178 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 2: be a little shook when they get to that stage. 179 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: San Francisco, you know, has played them twice, played them 180 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 2: tough twice, can't get over the hump. But I will say, like, 181 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: like me, personally, I do think if this was, say, 182 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 2: you know, somebody else instead of Philly that has not 183 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: seen Patrick mahomes In and the Chiefs on this stage, 184 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 2: I do think it would be a little bit different. Again, 185 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: I can't think of a specific team. I think, you know, 186 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: Detroit's kind of a mentally tough team if they had 187 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: made it. Whoever, But I do think, to me, I 188 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 2: think you're talking about what could potentially be one of 189 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: the greatest dynasties you know, that we'll ever see. And 190 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 2: we don't have to get into that conversation tonight, or 191 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 2: maybe we do later, But I think to me, the 192 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: broader conversation is I do think that it has to 193 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 2: be an advantage for the Eagles again, I know it 194 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: hasn't helped the Bills. I know it hasn't helped the Ravens. 195 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: I know it hasn't helped some of these teams that 196 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: can't seem to get over the hump against Philly. But 197 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: I do think that there will be a lack of fear, intimidation, 198 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: whatever you want to say, because they know how close 199 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: they were two years ago. 200 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 4: They know it could have gone another way. 201 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that means that that's a reason to 202 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: pick them to win, but I do think having played 203 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: them has to be a factor. 204 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: I think that's right, unless the fact that they lost 205 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 3: they come in with the wrong kind of energy and 206 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 3: find a way to make a few extra mistakes, trying 207 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 3: to do a little bit too much. 208 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 4: To call that, you could pulling a buffalo, by the way, 209 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 4: but exactly right. 210 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: It's about to say we just saw that happen. That's 211 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 3: the perfect that's exactly right. I think there's a difference 212 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 3: between being confident and being arrogant, or being confident and 213 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 3: being cocky. I think the Eagles come in confident, which 214 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: they should, they can win. I think they come in 215 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: cocky they probably lose because I don't think that plays 216 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 3: well against Andy Reid. I don't think it plays well 217 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 3: against Mahomes. I think they'll find ways to beat you 218 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 3: if you come out there with the wrong attitude, and 219 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 3: I think the Eagles have a tendency sometimes to play 220 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: on that line. Now, Sirianni is if Sirianni is part 221 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 3: of the kind of mental makeup of the team, as 222 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 3: teams often reflect their head coaches, then that's a line 223 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 3: that they kind of need to be delicate with. They 224 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 3: don't need to be habitual line steppers, as it were, 225 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 3: when it comes to being overly arrogant. This is a 226 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs. You have to have a healthy degree 227 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: of respect for them while being confident in your own 228 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 3: abilities to beat them. I do not think that you 229 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: come in there immaturely thinking that you're just so much 230 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 3: better than they are. I think that is how you 231 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 3: get beat because I think you can argue this, but 232 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 3: I think that if you look at the Chiefs during 233 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 3: this run, this playoff run, they've beaten teams that were 234 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 3: more talented than they were on the field. And that's 235 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: a thing that they've done consistently. And I don't know 236 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 3: how many times have we seen the new England Patriots 237 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,359 Speaker 3: win a Super Bowl when they weren't the most talented 238 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: team on paper. As you said, the Eagles are clearly 239 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 3: to me the more talented team on paper if you 240 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 3: look at them in as a whole, as one unit 241 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 3: in totality. But you still better have a healthy respect 242 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 3: for those other guys because they've got a whole lot 243 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 3: of rings. And most of the guys on your team, 244 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 3: I don't know how many of guys were actually there, 245 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: if any, that were playing in Super Bowl fifty two 246 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: when they actually beat the Patriots, But you look at 247 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: it right now, you're still sitting there, Aj Brown, DeVante Smith, 248 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 3: Jay when Hurd, Saquon bar Barley, all those guys, You're 249 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 3: sitting there with no hardware on your on your fingertips. 250 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 3: So that needs to that needs to change. You got 251 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: to remember, those other guys are used to being in 252 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 3: this moment and if it's close late, that's exactly what 253 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 3: you don't want if you're Philadelphia, because last five minutes 254 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 3: of that game, there was nobody more deadly in the 255 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 3: history of the NFL than Patrick Mahomes. 256 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is not a breaking news thing, but I 257 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 2: think everybody knows that if if you're gonna beat them, 258 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: you better be up pretty good because if Mahomes is 259 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: getting the ball back, you know, under five minutes to go, 260 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: under eight minutes to go trailing or ahead. 261 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 4: You know, he could chew up. 262 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 2: He could. He can chew up clock with the best 263 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 2: of them. But he can go down and score as well. 264 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Air, Torus Jason Martin.

We don't 334 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 6: know how good Spags are. 335 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 7: So I'm not going to say a blowout, but the 336 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 7: Birds are not losing tomorrow. 337 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 6: You're right. 338 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 7: I did call that two weeks ago, so I got 339 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 7: to stick to my guns right here. 340 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: All right. So, Sean, the question I asked off the 341 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 3: top of this show when Torres said, you know what's 342 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 3: your number one thing you're thinking about? I said, this 343 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 3: are the Philadelphia Eagles Tampa Bay Bucks? Like, because we 344 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 3: have seen this Chiefs team. We've seen this quarterback get 345 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 3: handled in a Super Bowl before by a top flight defense, 346 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 3: an outstanding quarterback that actually had weapons and a run game, 347 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 3: and Mahomes is running for his life almost three hundred 348 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 3: yards east and west, almost none of that was north 349 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 3: and south. Just a miserable night for him, like he 350 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: had no chance all night. Do you feel like the 351 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 3: Philadelphia Eagles are constructed similarly to that Bucks team that 352 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 3: gave the Chiefs so much trouble years ago? 353 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 6: Absolutely? Now, we do know at the top of that list. 354 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 7: In that Super Bowl they were hurting on the offensive line, 355 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 7: so yes, that's not happening here. 356 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 6: But you're right, they did make Patrick mahomes life miserable 357 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 6: in that game. And these guys are very. 358 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 7: Capable in the front line. Gione Carter is an absolute stud. 359 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 7: We know how good he is and the attention that 360 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 7: he gets. And it's no surprise Nolan Smith has had 361 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 7: I believe ten and a half sacks in his last 362 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 7: fifteen and a half games, I want to say completely 363 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 7: has turned it around, answered the calls and the guy 364 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 7: that we thought he was going to be when Howie 365 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 7: Rosman drafted him. Josh Sweat led the defense in sacks 366 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 7: eight and a half. Up front, Milton Williams fills in 367 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 7: really nicely great linebacker play, so yes, that's the ultimate goal. 368 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 7: And oh, by the way, guys, Mahomes five sacks this 369 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 7: whole postseason, running those two games three and the first 370 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 7: one two in the last one, so five total times 371 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 7: he's been taken down. So there's a little bit something 372 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 7: different there. I just feel like this Eagles defense is 373 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 7: that good we talked about up front with the linebacker play, 374 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 7: Kelsey's still going to get his but the difference is 375 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 7: for me is the secondary. Cooper Dejen Gwinyon, Mitchell, CJGJ, 376 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 7: Darius Slay. Those guys are going to be in the 377 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 7: back pockets of Hopkins, Hollywood brown Savi, You're worthy, whoever 378 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 7: you want to say. 379 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 6: And I know it's easier. 380 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 7: Said than done because Mahomes likes to extend it and 381 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 7: those receivers. 382 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 6: Cross all day. 383 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 7: But these guys are capable to hang on it. We're 384 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 7: talking about some serious athleticism. 385 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 6: And oh, by the way, when Dijon, when. 386 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 7: Degene got into the starting lineup and started seeing a 387 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 7: lot more playing time after that Tampa Bay game, that's 388 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 7: when the season changed. I don't think that's by by luck. 389 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 7: I think that's a serious reason why things have changed 390 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 7: for the better for this defense over the last what 391 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 7: twelve plus weeks. 392 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: With that one Fox. 393 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 2: Sports Radio the Gamblers, Sean Brace is joining us. You 394 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 2: can hear Sean in Philly Monday through Friday, three to 395 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: six pm Eastern. Let me ask you another question we 396 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: kind of talked about to lead the show. 397 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 4: Sean. 398 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 2: It's weird because you know, like I asked J mart 399 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 2: I said, you know the fact that Philly has faced 400 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 2: Casey on this stage, right, like you think it's a positive, 401 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 2: But then Buffalo faces him on the stage every year, 402 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 2: can't get over the hump. San Francisco has not been 403 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 2: able to get over the hump twice. 404 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 4: I may maybe it's. 405 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 2: Whatever I feel like Philly having been on this stage 406 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 2: two years ago, having basically gone toe to toe with 407 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: that team, I think it's a positive. 408 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 4: Am I crazy for saying that? 409 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 2: Like though nobody else has seemingly had success against Casey, 410 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: you know, in multiple appearances against them. Like, the one 411 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 2: thing I don't think is I don't think Philly in 412 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 2: any way, shape or form, is going to be intimidated 413 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: on Sunday night. 414 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 6: Yeah. 415 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 7: No, you're right, And it's like you said, when you 416 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 7: have the experience, that's only going. 417 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 6: To be a plus. 418 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 7: And especially for guys like Jalen Hurtz, who you know, 419 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 7: I was his first start and up super Bowl, that's 420 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 7: a huge deal. So that's out of the way, Nick Sirianni, 421 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 7: the guy was crying. Sirianna was crying before the game 422 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 7: even started, all right, So hopefully we've gotten that out 423 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 7: of the way. But yeah, it's obvious that if you've 424 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 7: been able to play in this game before, the experience 425 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 7: is only going to help. But it's been interesting the 426 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 7: way you put it, though, Aaron, because look, as I said, 427 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 7: the bravado, the confidence has an all time high right 428 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 7: here at Seagos team. 429 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 6: But I'm no fool. 430 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 7: The Chiefs are that good and it's it's no surprise 431 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 7: that they're in this spot again. And it starts with Look, 432 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 7: Mahomes is the guy, but like Andy Reid is a 433 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 7: heck of a play caller. 434 00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 6: He knows what the single out. 435 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 7: So you know, from the standpoint of the offensive side 436 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 7: of the ball with Kansas City, I think that they're 437 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 7: going to try and find Reid blank and ship one 438 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 7: on one at the top and see if they can 439 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 7: exploit him some way, somehow with like a deep bomb. 440 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 7: They're like Worthy or Hollywood Brown. But they're just gonna 441 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 7: have to do so much because I just don't see 442 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 7: the Kansaity Chiefs defense being able to slow down Saquon Barkley. 443 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 7: And you know, this is his first opportunity on the 444 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 7: national stage, his first time playing in the Super Bowl. 445 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 7: Big time players make big time plays, man, big time 446 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 7: games doesn't get any bigger. 447 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 6: Than this with saque behind the offensive line, So. 448 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 7: Joe's been there, done that, Sirianni too. Callum board just 449 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 7: got announced. 450 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 6: Apparently he's taken the gig. That's good. That's good. That's 451 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 6: been in the work for a couple of weeks. 452 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 7: Now, we're not worried about that one. 453 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 6: In the offense Redded Royal tomorrow. 454 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 3: Okay, well you said that you're not worried about that. 455 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 3: So hopefully Moore is ready and he isn't already thinking about, 456 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 3: you know, staying in New Orleans after the Super Bowl 457 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: to go ahead and coach the Saints. But let's take 458 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 3: you to a place you don't want to go. If 459 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 3: the Chiefs are to beat Philadelphia, what's the most likely 460 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 3: reason why. 461 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 7: I hate to sound cliche, but it's got to be turnovers, right, 462 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 7: It's got to be exotic looks bags cook something up. 463 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 7: He's a heck of a defensive mind. It's been in 464 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 7: what twenty four starts as a defensive coordinator has yet 465 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 7: to give up one hundred yard rusher, I believe. 466 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 6: So it would start for me with Steve. 467 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 7: Spagnola cooking up some exotic blitz, is getting after jail 468 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 7: and hurts, forcing a couple like a fumble an interception, 469 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 7: and that ultimately will be the difference in the game, right, 470 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 7: like if it is close, if it's a one score game, 471 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 7: which Kansasity finds them himselves in more times than not, 472 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 7: and they come out on top. Look at the last 473 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 7: time in fifty seven it was a drop ball taken 474 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 7: for a touchdown that was ultimately the difference. 475 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 6: In the game three point score. 476 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 7: So it starts and end with turnovers for me, You're 477 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 7: exactly right. Look, it's cliche, but it's the truth. And 478 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 7: if the Eagles take care of the football true up clock, 479 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 7: stick to bread and butter, Sakauon Barkley off of the line. 480 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 7: It's what got you there. You know, allowed ge On 481 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 7: to make some plays with his numbers called upon, but 482 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 7: it starting ends with that offensive line and take one. 483 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: Sean Brace is joining us Fox Sports Radio. You can 484 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 2: hear Sean three to six Eastern Fox Sports Radio, The 485 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 2: Gambler and Philly. Make sure to follow him on Twitter 486 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 2: at Sean Sea n Underscore Brace. I'm gonna kind of 487 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 2: basically do the same thing that Jamart did, but in 488 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 2: a slightly different direction. Is the obvious game plan to 489 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 2: slow down Philadelphia when they have the ball is you know, 490 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 2: limit Saquon Barkley, But that has literally been the game 491 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 2: plan for sixteen. Yeah, what is eighteen of the last 492 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: nineteen weeks if you take out the week eighteen game 493 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: that he set out. So like, one, you know, Spagnola, 494 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 2: as you said, is as good of a defensive mind 495 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 2: as we have. 496 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 4: But two, do you. 497 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: Believe that just Philadelphia will be able to kind of 498 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 2: do what they've been able to do all season long? 499 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: Because again, if it was so easy to slow down Saquon, 500 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 2: everybody would do it. 501 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 7: Yeah. Look they stick to it, right, they don't bail 502 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 7: And why would you when Sakuon Barkley is that good 503 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 7: and they chew up the clock better than most in 504 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter, and that's when they won a lot 505 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 7: of games. 506 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 6: I'm saying that, I'm not saying that that's going to 507 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 6: take place. 508 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 7: Tomorrow, but that is the recipe for success. You know, 509 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 7: just get the ball in Saquon, chew up the clock, 510 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 7: move the move the sticks, and next thing you know, 511 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 7: you're running four to six to eight minutes off the 512 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 7: clock and the game ends right like that's ultimately what 513 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 7: you want to do is control the line of scrimmage 514 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 7: and of course, do not turn the football over so 515 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 7: it goes hand in hand. I don't see them stopping Saquon. 516 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 6: I think like Saquon could be held. 517 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 7: And you know, and it's like, it's so funny because 518 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 7: the bar is so high for him that if he 519 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 7: goes for a buckle five and a touchdown, it's almost. 520 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 6: Like a bad day at the office for him. 521 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 7: But you know, that's a pretty darn good day for any. 522 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 6: Running back out there. 523 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 7: So I do believe it will probably be somewhere in 524 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 7: that mark. I don't think he's going to go off, 525 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 7: but all it. 526 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 6: Takes is won. I mean, the opening play. 527 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 7: Against the Commander sixty yards to the house, so that's 528 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 7: all it needs. He's a home run hit her, really 529 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 7: tough to contain, really tough to stop. 530 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 6: So we'll see, we'll see. 531 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 7: But this offense as a whole is ready for battle. 532 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that's a good point. And 533 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 3: I was thinking the same thing. He's a guy that 534 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 3: can have thirteen carries for forty six yards and then 535 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: you look up and he has seventeen carries for one 536 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 3: hundred and ninety five yards because he just has big 537 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 3: tom chunks and it's only going to take a few 538 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 3: of those to have those Super Bowl moments to win 539 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 3: the game. Are you concerned at all? And is your 540 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 3: audience that you've chatted with since this matchup was finalized, 541 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 3: are they worried concerned at all about Sirianni in crucial 542 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 3: moments if it comes down to coaching decisions or common sense. 543 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 6: You know, it's interesting. He's gotten better, he has improved. 544 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 7: And I told you guys last time I was on, 545 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 7: if you had to, if I had to check a 546 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 7: box whether I'm a Sirianni guy or not, you would 547 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 7: check the box that I'm not. But he has proved 548 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 7: me wrong all season. Since the Tampa Bay loss, he's 549 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 7: turned it around. He's got him into another super Bowl 550 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 7: two times in four years. He took your cap. Look, 551 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,479 Speaker 7: he's aggressive, he's consistent with that. 552 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 6: They have a staying down. 553 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 7: There at the Noblecare Complex, which I just found out 554 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 7: last week. It's first to nine. That's how they go 555 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 7: about their businesses. 556 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 6: First and nine. 557 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 7: It's almost just like it's a guarantee that we're going 558 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 7: to go for it every time on fourth down, fourth 559 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 7: and one, fourth and two, whatever it may be. But 560 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 7: as long as he sticks to that and doesn't change 561 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 7: and just. 562 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 6: Stays consistent stays to what. 563 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 7: Got him here, and then on the other side of 564 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 7: that too, is almost taking it out of Jake Elliot Tans. 565 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 7: As far as the field goal kicker, who hasn't been 566 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 7: the best this year, he has been super consistent over 567 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 7: his career. 568 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 6: With the Eagles. 569 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 7: To this year just wasn't happening in those fifty yard 570 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 7: field goals. 571 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 6: They weren't really confident marching them out there. 572 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,679 Speaker 7: And it's really nice when you're able to pick up 573 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 7: those tough fourth downs, fourth and one, fourth and two 574 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 7: and not march out the kicker. So taking that out 575 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 7: of his hands, stay consistent. 576 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 6: I think even Sirianty can't screw this one up. 577 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 7: That's how good the offense is and that's why the 578 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 7: Eagles are playing in Super Bowl fifty nine. 579 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: Sean last one for me and I am gonna switch gears. 580 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 2: A little bit of Sean Brayce, Fox Sports Radio, The 581 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 2: Gambler and Philly joining us one. 582 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 4: You know we are we are live. 583 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 2: Here in Los Angeles. Can you give us the quick 584 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: rundown on Philadelphia sports legend Ben Simmons. 585 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 4: A serious basketball topic. I know you love the NBA. 586 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 2: J Mart and I were on air when the Luka 587 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 2: Doncicz trade happened at this time last week? What was 588 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 2: your your basketball dude, you're a junkie, like what has 589 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 2: been I know you probably haven't talked about it much 590 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: with the Eagles in the Super Bowl, But what has 591 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 2: your reaction been to what was the craziest trade? I 592 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 2: don't think it'shype of hyperbole. It might have been the 593 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 2: craziest trade sports history. 594 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 8: Yeah. 595 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 6: Look, it was the first time in NBA history two. 596 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 7: Reigning All pros were traded at mid season. And that 597 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 7: tells you all you need to know. There's historical, historical 598 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 7: preference for you right there. So that's number one. But 599 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 7: my favorite thing today was the protest down there for 600 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 7: Nico Harrison lose his job and they were chanting the 601 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 7: Mavericks fans outside their arena, he's not fat, bring them back. 602 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: That's so good. 603 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 6: That's just poetry. 604 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 7: That's why we're sports fans right there, right there, He's 605 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 7: not fat, bring them back. 606 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 6: You know. 607 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 7: Look, I still have no idea how to heck it 608 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 7: went down, why it went down. You can't convince me 609 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 7: that they're a better team now. The odds shifted from 610 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 7: nine to one to sixteen to one. With the addition 611 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 7: of Anthony Davis. Luca's been in these league five years, 612 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 7: all pro like, we know what he has. As far 613 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 7: as the status is concerned, it's just it's shocking. The 614 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 7: conspiracy theories have me intrigued, like with Nico being involved 615 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 7: with Kobe and you know, possibly the Lakers deal with that. 616 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 7: So and he's the fact he didn't fuck to Jason 617 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 7: Kidd and they're sitting down with the press conference, He's like, hey, we. 618 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 6: Might not be here for three years. 619 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 7: You know. It's just like, all right, what's going on here? 620 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 7: But Luca's incredible that Jersey does look pretty nice. As 621 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 7: far as the Purple and Gold is concerned, I think 622 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 7: he's going to absolutely rip it up, if not this. 623 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 6: Year, moving forward and put the team together. 624 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 7: Really cool stuff, exciting stuff. Ben Simmons on the other side, 625 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 7: he just needs to go to Australia and finish his 626 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 7: playing day. 627 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 6: Just give it up. Then give it up. 628 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 3: He's already stolen a lot of money in the NBA. 629 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 3: He didn't have to go play anywhere at this point. 630 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 4: He doesn't play here either, But that's another. 631 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 3: Good right, right, So, Nick Sirianni, you talked about him 632 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 3: crying and hopefully getting that out and not doing it again. 633 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 3: What's more likely Nick Sirianni cries during the anthem tomorrow 634 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 3: or Chris Jones does. Because Chris Jones cries during the 635 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 3: anthem all the time, they catch it on camera repeatedly, 636 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 3: so there could be waterworks on both sides between head 637 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and first ballot soon to 638 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 3: be Hall of Famer Chris Jones. 639 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 7: A good old fashioned cryoff. Yeah, that's what we want 640 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 7: to see in the Super Bowl to kick things up. 641 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 6: No, you're right, Chris Jones out. 642 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 7: The waterworks are always wrong with him, like Niagara Falls. 643 00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 6: No matter what. 644 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 7: Look, my man shaved his head. He's done barking at fans. 645 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 7: It seems like he's getting along with the quarterback as 646 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 7: of late, and he's just slid into this position right. 647 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 6: Now that he's a leader. So I don't know. Look 648 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 6: I'm not I'm a softie. I go watch movies and 649 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 6: tears come down my eyes. 650 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 7: So I don't want to rip the man for crying, 651 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 7: which was an epic epic national anthem. Chris Stapleton, I mean, 652 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 7: Boys of God, come on, So yeah, if you're gonna cry, 653 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 7: for a national anthem. 654 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 6: It's because of him. 655 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 7: But hopefully he got that out of his way, shaved 656 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 7: up the head nice, and he's ready to go for tomorrow. 657 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 6: All right. 658 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 3: So you said last you said, you said you're a 659 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 3: guy that cries the movies.

I 670 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 3: could see that potentially doing it. 671 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 6: So whow Yeah, that would be tough. I'm telling you, 672 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 6: that's gonna be really tough. 673 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 7: And they're talking about five inches of snow coming here 674 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 7: in PA on Tuesday, so we got to have a celebration. 675 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 7: We're gonna be getting hit with five inches of snow. 676 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 2: Well, I will say I was on air for the 677 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 2: Luca Trade last week. It was one of the most 678 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 2: shocking things I've ever seen. I was also on air 679 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: when Ben Simmons passed open a wide open layup in 680 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 2: Game seven, tell us up, that's worth crying over. That 681 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 2: was probably it.

They're a better football team. 687 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 7: They're gonna show it tomorrow. I think they score forty. 688 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 7: I'm having a hard time penning the Chiefs down and 689 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 7: saying that they don't get to thirty. But I'll go 690 00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 7: for the national audience eighteen and I'll say forty one 691 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 7: twenty seven Birds on top. 692 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 4: Wow, I'll tell you what that would be. 693 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 2: At least it would be an entertaining game I had 694 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: the only other time we're having my in laws over more. 695 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: The only other time that I had them over they 696 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 2: don't like football was like the nine to six Rams 697 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 2: Patriots Super Bowl and they I think they swore off 698 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 2: football after that. So we're having them tomorrow. So I'm 699 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 2: hoping for forty one to twenty seven will be more entertained. 700 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 7: Fireworks fireworks down on Bourbon Street. 701 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, there's gonna be some fireworks at 702 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 2: Philly if they put up forty one.

Really quickly, 782 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 2: I thought there was something that was pretty interesting today, 783 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 2: this being Saturday, not related to the NFL. Came from 784 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: the NBA. So we've said it a few times. You 785 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 2: and I were on air during that crazy Luca trade. 786 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: You know, we spend a lot of time kind of 787 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: breaking it down, trying to figure it out whatever. 788 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 4: And I only bring it up because. 789 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 2: ESPN today Saturday basically rearrange their entire programming schedule to 790 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,879 Speaker 2: broadcast Lakers Pelicans from you know, Crypto dot com Marine. 791 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 2: I was gonna call it Staple Center, but Crypto dot Com. 792 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 4: To you know, to play. I'll say this, like the NBA, 793 00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 4: I don't know. 794 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 2: How many really truly important regular season games there are, 795 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 2: but Luka Dotc's debut for the Lakers is just that. 796 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 6: Well. 797 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,439 Speaker 2: I bring it up because they rescheduled the whole day 798 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 2: of programming and not only did Luca dog just not play, 799 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: Lebron James didn't either. Now, I want to be fair 800 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 2: and say that, yes, I get that, you know, you 801 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 2: don't want guys playing injured, but I do also think 802 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: it's a metaphor for the NBA where they're trying to 803 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 2: have this moment. It's a Saturday afternoon whatever, and neither 804 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 2: superstar plays. Just you know, we sit here and we 805 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 2: try to break down what is wrong with the NBA? 806 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 4: What what? 807 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 2: Why are the ratings tanking? I just think this is 808 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 2: a perfect metaphor for exactly that. 809 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and again it is important to mention 810 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 3: the injury, and you know, Luca had been hurt prior 811 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 3: to the trade and all those things, and that ultimately 812 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,800 Speaker 3: has to be the most important factor. But the problem 813 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 3: is the NBA just does this a lot when they 814 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 3: don't have to, and so even if this is legitimate, 815 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 3: it's kind of hard to take it at face value, 816 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 3: at least without an eye roll, because I think the 817 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 3: important thing about this being a Saturday, like you mentioned, 818 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 3: is I mean, they would have owned it. There's no football, 819 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 3: There's nothing else happening. I mean, there were some good 820 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 3: college basketball matchups, don't get me wrong, but this is 821 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 3: the perfect day to do this debut. Is the day 822 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 3: before the Super Bowl. You're obviously gonna have no audience tomorrow, 823 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 3: but this is if anybody is trying to watch sports today, oh, 824 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 3: it's gonna be Luca and Lebron on day one. And 825 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 3: I think it's this like the fact that you rescheduled 826 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 3: all the programming and made it so that this thing 827 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 3: could be a feature and it doesn't happen. It's just 828 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 3: kind of like, how soon could you have told somebody this, 829 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 3: to have made sure that the NBA didn't get caught 830 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 3: with their pants down in this situation, because again, it 831 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 3: comes across badly, Like Paul George. We didn't get to 832 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 3: talk to Sean Brace about this but two weeks ago 833 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 3: or whatever when he was in the press conference and 834 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 3: he said, I'm bored of playing because he's being asked 835 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 3: to play center. He's being asked to play center, he's 836 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 3: undersize because the injury to Embiid. He's bored is playing 837 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 3: the five because it doesn't give him enough opportunity to 838 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 3: shoot the ball, even though he's shooting the lowest percentage 839 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 3: of his entire career since being in Philadelphia. But like 840 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 3: it's bad, and it's a snippet that comes across bad, 841 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 3: and this kind of thing happens all the time. I 842 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 3: don't know how many the shots of Kawhi Leonard playing 843 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 3: are less prevalent than the shots of him looking sort 844 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 3: of nonplused on the sidelines, like not very interested in 845 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 3: what's going on, just kind of almost halfway checked out. 846 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 3: And I think that's the perception from a lot of 847 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 3: people about this. And I sent you this text in 848 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 3: regard to all this man, we can't care more about 849 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 3: your league than you do, and we just can't. Like 850 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 3: if it comes across like your money's guaranteed, it doesn't 851 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 3: matter right now, there's still a lot to go. We'll 852 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 3: turn it on on the playoffs. Like then, I can't 853 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 3: care either, Like it's more the trade deadline and the 854 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 3: moves that were or more exciting than anything that's gonna 855 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 3: happen from them on the floor. And that is a 856 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 3: massive problem because you had an opportunity for this to 857 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: really be big and you found a way to blow it, 858 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 3: disappoint people and disappoint your television partners all at the 859 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 3: same time. It's just a bad look for a league 860 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 3: that's full of bad looks. 861 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, it's funny that you reference Paul 862 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 2: George's comments because they're on the heels of an all 863 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 2: seriousness Ben Simmons getting traded today, don't you know, don't 864 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 2: know the last relevant moment that he's had in a 865 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 2: positive way, and on the heels of Jimmy Butler basically 866 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 2: refusing to play while getting paid fifty million dollars a year. 867 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 2: So Luca and Lebron out on Saturday. Not a good 868 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 2: look for the League in a game that I listened. 869 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 2: Even as a not a huge NBA guy, I would 870 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 2: have tuned in for that one.

We're gonna come back 888 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 2: with some Super Bowl stuff here in just a moment. 889 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 2: Dan Byro will be joining us live from New Orleans. 890 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 2: For all sorts of you know interesting conversation about the 891 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 2: scene and all of that. I do want to ask you, jmart, 892 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 2: I do want to switch gears. And obviously tonight's not 893 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 2: the night to talk a ton of NBA. But the 894 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 2: SEGA did just bring up a very hurry, very important 895 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 2: news item from the association. We talked a little bit 896 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 2: a minute ago about the Lakers game today. We're expecting 897 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 2: Luca's debut. He doesn't play, Lebron doesn't play, but we 898 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 2: thought in addition to the Luca trade, it was a 899 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 2: great week for the Lakers, who did trade for Mark 900 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 2: Williams from the Charlotte Hornets, averaging I didn't even realize 901 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 2: he was playing this well until the trade happened, averaging 902 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: sixteen points nine rebounds this season, as well as close 903 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 2: to a block and a half on the year. Well, 904 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 2: I bring it up because, as the SEGRE just told you, 905 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 2: the trade has officially been next per ESPN, per Shams Gerania, 906 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 2: it appears as though Mark Williams has failed a physical, 907 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,720 Speaker 2: and so I bring it up because you know, Luca's 908 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 2: really good, Lebron's really good, but Mark Williams was going 909 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 2: to be a key component to basically providing the rint 910 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 2: protection that basically walked out the door and Anthony Davis left. 911 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 2: What do you make of this move? In what do 912 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 2: you make of this situation? Really, it's not a move. 913 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 2: It's just a thing that happened, especially relative to the 914 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 2: news that we were on air for last week with 915 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 2: the Luca Dodge strait. 916 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: Look, it's not good for the Lakers at all. I mean, 917 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 3: I like Dalton Connect a lot, and I like to 918 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 3: pick when they made it, But you don't need him 919 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 3: with Luca, Like you could understand why you would use 920 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 3: him as a piece. He somebody would value that. You know, 921 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 3: it can do something somewhere else if need be. But 922 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 3: you think about, you know, the pick swaps and all 923 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 3: this other stuff. But the key here is who's going 924 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 3: to play center for the Lakers. Like this was a 925 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 3: seven footer. You listed his stats there. This was a 926 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 3: team that was counting on that to kind of, you know, 927 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 3: soften the loss of Davis from the defensive side, because 928 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 3: we already talked about the defensive woes of this Lakers 929 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 3: team when it comes to I mean, Lebron's getting a 930 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 3: little bit older, so he's not always playing top strength 931 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the ball. Luca. I'm not 932 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 3: sure if he can spell defense as of yet. That's 933 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 3: not really his style. He's not there to be a 934 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 3: you know, top flight, lockdown kind of defender. But then 935 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: you look at the rest of that team and they're 936 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 3: all more offensive minded. So Mark Williams was supposed to 937 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 3: come in, be the size, be the big in the middle. 938 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 3: They could block a couple shots a game that would 939 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 3: again hit the glass hard, get your rebounds, do all 940 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,840 Speaker 3: of that, do a lot of the dirty work, do 941 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:22,319 Speaker 3: a lot of the blue collar work. And to not 942 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 3: get him, and now the trade deadlines passed, what are 943 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 3: you gonna do? Like it seems like to me, you're 944 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,320 Speaker 3: now gonna see a team that doesn't have a true center, 945 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 3: that's gonna be playing very small ball and incomplete basketball 946 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,919 Speaker 3: for the rest of the season. Now, if you didn't 947 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 3: think they were contenders anyway, you know, they can try 948 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 3: to address this in the offseason, They can address this 949 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 3: in the draft, they can figure something out perhaps for 950 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 3: the future. But immediately, this is a big problem because 951 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 3: what you thought you had pulled off to sort of 952 00:43:56,239 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 3: round out your move with Luca is not there now, 953 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:04,760 Speaker 3: and you have a big glaring issue in the center 954 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 3: of your team. 955 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:06,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny. 956 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 2: I remember, you know, we were on last week and 957 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 2: know I've said it a million times, but we did 958 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 2: have Mark Medina on. I believe it was the one 959 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 2: am Eastern window of the show to really help us 960 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 2: break it all down. And I remember asking him, I said, 961 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 2: you know, does I really said? 962 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 4: I said, really? Two parts? 963 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 2: I said, does this actually make the Lakers more of 964 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,720 Speaker 2: a contender right now? And if not, are they basically 965 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 2: waving the white flag on this season? Because I said, 966 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 2: in my head, I said, Luca and Lebron are really 967 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 2: good and you know whatever, But there is a defensive 968 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: component to it. We heard Nico Harrison's comments this week 969 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:44,800 Speaker 2: about defense wins championships all that, and so I either 970 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,879 Speaker 2: thought that it was weird to say the least, even 971 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 2: if it might work, or that there was another move coming. 972 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,240 Speaker 4: So I'm with you in that. Listen. 973 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 2: You know we've seen this a million times in the NBA, 974 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 2: is that there's trades or free agent signings or whatever 975 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 2: that look really cool on paper and then but you 976 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 2: actually like do the basketball, uh, you know, analysis of 977 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 2: style and fit and everything, and it rarely works out. 978 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 2: And there's a million examples of that. We don't, you know, 979 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 2: pick any trade from the last seven eight years. Most 980 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 2: of them they look cool on paper, they don't actually 981 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 2: work out well. 982 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,200 Speaker 3: I mean, look at the I mean look at the Durant, 983 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 3: that whole move and everything that's happened in Phoenix.

Is there? 1018 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 2: You know whatever, We're just trying to figure it out 1019 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: in real time. Then the day after comes and you 1020 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 2: start to hear all different sorts of philosophies, of theories. 1021 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,040 Speaker 2: You know, I've heard Colin Cowhard, our buddy, say that 1022 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,879 Speaker 2: that it came from above, Nico Harrison. They didn't want 1023 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 2: to you know, basically Luca, you know, his fitness, et cetera. 1024 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 2: Did they want to pay him the Supermax which was 1025 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 2: basically gonna be you know, three hundred and fifty to 1026 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 2: four hundred million, whatever. 1027 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 4: It ends up being. 1028 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 2: You know, you hear other stuff, and you know, obviously 1029 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people have seen that internet 1030 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,759 Speaker 2: you know theory that basically the Atolsons are trying to 1031 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 2: the atl Sins are the people, by the way, who 1032 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 2: bought the majority stake of the team from Mark Cuban, 1033 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 2: and they're trying to build a new arena, and they're 1034 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 2: trying to build a complex around it, and they're not 1035 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 2: getting the legislative support, and so basically are they trying 1036 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 2: to make the team so bad that they can leave 1037 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,800 Speaker 2: a lah major league? The movie, and so I just 1038 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 2: bring it up now that we've had a week to 1039 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 2: kind of just break it down and just really think 1040 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 2: about it. Do you think there's anything like do you 1041 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 2: think that the Mavericks really think that defense wins championships 1042 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,879 Speaker 2: and Lucas never gonna get them over the top, and oh, 1043 00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 2: by the way, this is a guy that led them 1044 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 2: to the final literally last year. Do you think there's 1045 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 2: something else fishy going on? Do you think this is 1046 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 2: just a bad trade? Now that you've had ti a 1047 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 2: week to swallow and digest it. What do you actually 1048 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,439 Speaker 2: think about now that it's official, we know that it's 1049 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 2: not a hoax or anything like that, I. 1050 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 3: Am more open to the idea that something's wrong here. 1051 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 3: That's what I would say if it turned out that 1052 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 3: this story ended up being some giant documentary down the 1053 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:27,440 Speaker 3: road that led to fraud charges or you know, banishment from. 1054 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 2: The league you investigated, right right, right, I. 1055 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 3: Would not be surprised because it doesn't. It still doesn't 1056 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 3: make sense to me. And you know, I've watched a 1057 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 3: lot of videos, and I've looked at a lot of 1058 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 3: you know, articles and all this kind of stuff. No 1059 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 3: one's been able to make sense of this from a 1060 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 3: from a perspective that satisfies me. It just doesn't. It 1061 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 3: doesn't work. I understand the arguments for Luca's conditioning and 1062 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 3: all this other kind of stuff. Dude took you to 1063 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 3: the finals last year. He's been a team or five 1064 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 3: year first team All NBA player. He's not twenty or 1065 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 3: I guess he's twenty six now or whatever. But I mean, 1066 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 3: dude is still He's got his best basketball still left 1067 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 3: to be played in his career. You're telling me you 1068 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 3: can't work with attitude. You can't work with a guy 1069 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 3: that maybe is a little bit briskly or somebody that 1070 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 3: you wish was a little bit more committed here and there. 1071 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, if you're good enough, you're supposed 1072 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 3: to be able to get away with that kind of stuff, 1073 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 3: Right Like, why did you put up with Aaron Rodgers garbage? 1074 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 3: Because Aaron Rodgers delivered for you on the field if 1075 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,760 Speaker 3: you were the Green Bay Packers. Why is he probably 1076 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 3: not going to be getting away with that in New 1077 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 3: York because he doesn't have that ability anymore. You can 1078 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 3: do a whole lot if you're talented enough. You can 1079 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 3: get away with a whole lot if you're talented enough. Luka, 1080 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 3: Doncic is talented enough that he should have been able 1081 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 3: to get away with whatever he wanted for a long time, 1082 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 3: because he's the reason the Mavericks are selling tickets. It's 1083 00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 3: a market that loved him, and it's a market the 1084 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 3: guy used to having a star that's stuck around there 1085 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 3: his entire career. In Dirk Noovitchky, I mean, you had 1086 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 3: the jerseys, you had all this. All you have to 1087 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 3: do is look at the reaction from the fan base. 1088 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 3: The protests, the signs, all of that outside the arena, 1089 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 3: towards the ownership, towards Niko the general manager, to let 1090 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 3: you know, it's just like if you're Adam Silver, you 1091 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 3: have to be in your office like what happened here, 1092 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 3: because this is bad for the league. I mean, I understand, 1093 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 3: like long term the Lakers being important and having a future, 1094 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 3: I get all that, but this is bad when it's 1095 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 3: like there is a fan base that absolutely positively would 1096 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 3: have if they had any way to stop this, would 1097 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 3: have done so, and yet it goes through. And here's 1098 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 3: the reason why I'm more open to the idea that 1099 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 3: there was something more here, erin, and I'll give it 1100 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 3: back to you because I'm curious your thoughts. The idea 1101 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 3: that they just called the Lakers. They didn't shop Luca around, 1102 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 3: They didn't talk to a bunch of other teams in 1103 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 3: the league where they could easily could have gotten a 1104 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 3: better deal. I think. I mean, was it Michael Bridges 1105 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 3: got five first round picks or something like that. You 1106 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 3: look at what go Bear got when he went to Minnesota, 1107 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 3: for example, and all this stuff, like you're telling me 1108 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 3: that's all you could get. You couldn't even get both 1109 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 3: first round picks from the Lakers in twenty thirty. You 1110 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 3: can only get one of their two picks for one 1111 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,240 Speaker 3: of the top five players in the NBA. Full stop. 1112 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 3: Like there's again, maybe it is just a bad trade, 1113 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 3: and maybe the Lakers just fortune, you know, just fell 1114 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 3: right on them. But if this turned out to be 1115 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 3: something else, I think that's where I'll stick. If this 1116 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 3: turned out to be more, I would not be the 1117 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 3: least bit surprised. 1118 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 2: So all I will say is I think that last 1119 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: part to me is again now having a week to 1120 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 2: process it is I'm not a big conspiracy theory guy, 1121 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 2: but I will say exactly what you did said, you 1122 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 2: have a top five player in the league that just 1123 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 2: led you to the NBA finals last year, right, and 1124 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,399 Speaker 2: we talked, We did talk about this part in real 1125 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 2: time last week. 1126 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 4: Is like teams as a franchise. 1127 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:16,720 Speaker 2: Wait thirty forty fifty years to draft a guy like Luca. 1128 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,239 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I can't think of a team 1129 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 2: like the Charlotte Hornet's perfect. They've been waiting their entire 1130 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 2: existence since they came back as a team to have 1131 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 2: a guy like Luca, and they haven't, you know, And 1132 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 2: so whoever. I mean, I can't think of whatever the 1133 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 2: point I'm trying to make you wait generations to draft 1134 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 2: a player like Luca. There was no trade demand, there 1135 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 2: was no you know, off the court incident, whatever, and 1136 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 2: it just it does. 1137 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:46,319 Speaker 3: And he's just. 1138 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 4: Entering his prime and he just led you to the finals. 1139 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 2: It's one thing if it's a really talented player, and 1140 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 2: even at that age it would be a little ridiculous 1141 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,439 Speaker 2: twenty five going on twenty six. Oh, he hasn't gotten 1142 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 2: over the hump. Okay, most superstars don't. But he just 1143 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 2: led you the finals. And I think that's the part 1144 00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 2: to me that I keep going back to is one 1145 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 2: that he just like he you wait generations to get 1146 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 2: a player like this. 1147 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 4: He was leading you at the highest level. 1148 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 2: Even if he's not maybe a great, you know, emotional leader, 1149 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 2: he's a great leader on the court. And then two 1150 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 2: as importantly or three, I guess it would be as 1151 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 2: importantly is there was I would I would struggle to 1152 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 2: think of a player even close to as good as 1153 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 2: Luca where there wasn't even discussion, like even like when 1154 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant has demanded a trade or whoever, Like there's 1155 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,879 Speaker 2: other teams involved, you know, like you know, I can't 1156 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 2: think of a perfect examit, but whatever, so the fact 1157 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 2: that you did it under the cloak of darkness, now 1158 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 2: I will say, if you're looking for non conspiracy theory, 1159 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 2: you know I could see you know what Colin said. 1160 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 2: You know, Colin insinuated basically that it came from above Manage, 1161 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 2: it came from above Nico Harrison, and he basically was told, 1162 00:53:58,520 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 2: you gotta trade this guy. We don't want to give 1163 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 2: super Max for close to four hundred million. Okay, I 1164 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 2: can buy that because there's no other explanation for trading 1165 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 2: a guy this young, this talented and not having the 1166 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 2: open market. And so to me, that's the part that 1167 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:18,240 Speaker 2: trips me up. A superstar under the eight twenty five 1168 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 2: right now going on twenty six, as you said, and 1169 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 2: there's no Hey, let's at least see what we could 1170 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 2: get for him, unless you believe that Kyrie and A 1171 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 2: to eighty guarantee you a trip to a return trip 1172 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 2: to the finals, which I don't believe. I just I 1173 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 2: don't get it, and I'll rap because I know I'm 1174 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 2: going along here. I'll just wrap by saying this, you 1175 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,080 Speaker 2: know how I know that I have a pretty good 1176 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:45,280 Speaker 2: feel that this was you know whatever, is that Nico 1177 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 2: Harrison didn't tell anybody? And then, as Sean Brace referenced 1178 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 2: about an hour ago, is that, uh, when you could 1179 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 2: tell just by watching the press conference that Jason Kidd 1180 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:56,719 Speaker 2: had no idea that this was coming, and Jason Kid 1181 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 2: looked like he was at a funeral. So that I 1182 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,839 Speaker 2: took it seven to directions. I apologize for going so long. 1183 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 2: You take it whatever direction you want, But that's what 1184 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 2: sticks out to me of if you want to believe 1185 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,320 Speaker 2: there's a conspiracy theory, I can actually believe. 1186 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 3: It all you know right exactly? And all I will 1187 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,320 Speaker 3: say is it relates to the Supermax extension and it 1188 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 3: coming from above? Is this? If that's true? And I'm 1189 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,200 Speaker 3: a Mavericks fan, I guess how am I supposed to 1190 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 3: follow that team anymore? Because let's say that's accurate that 1191 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 3: the ownership said, we don't want to pay this guy 1192 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 3: that kind of money, who are you going to pay? 1193 00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 3: Then if you're not going to pay Luka Doncic, who 1194 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 3: exactly are you going to pay that kind of money too? 1195 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,160 Speaker 3: So you're just telling me, if you get somebody good enough, 1196 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 3: they could command that kind of money, we got to 1197 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:40,919 Speaker 3: get them out of town. Like, if that's the case, 1198 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 3: then I can't be a mass fan anymore because the 1199 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 3: ownership is telling me that they're actually not in it 1200 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 3: to win it. They're not actually going to fund what 1201 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 3: they need to fund. I mean, I was trying to 1202 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 3: think of what would have been a comparison to this happening, 1203 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 3: and this is what came to me. If the Houston 1204 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 3: Rockets had traded James Harden off his MVP season and 1205 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 3: you know the ones we had, the fifty seemingly every 1206 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:07,799 Speaker 3: night and all this kind of stuff, if they had 1207 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 3: traded him coming off of that. 1208 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 2: For Jim Mard. 1209 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 3: You can name the player, it doesn't even matter. 1210 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 2: I got it for you because I actually looked this 1211 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 2: up in real time. Okay, So in two thousand and one, 1212 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:25,360 Speaker 2: fresh off of leading Philadelphia to the NBA Finals and 1213 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 2: stepping over Tylo, Alan Iverson was twenty six that offseason. Like, 1214 00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 2: imagine Allan Iverson under the cloak of darkness, traded a 1215 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 2: year after basically single handedly taking Luca to the finals. 1216 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:42,839 Speaker 2: Because I spent all week too trying to figure out 1217 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 2: is there an equivalent that's pretty close? 1218 00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 4: Twenty six years old. 1219 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 2: He was basically I mean, he was basically the franchise, 1220 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 2: and if that had happened, we would have been like, no, 1221 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 2: there's no explanation, that's justifiable. 1222 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 4: There's no excuses. I don't you know, I don't know 1223 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,720 Speaker 4: who the equivalent of Anthony Davis was back in that era. 1224 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,719 Speaker 2: But it's like, imagine the Philadelphia seventy six ers trading 1225 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 2: Allen Iverson the year after leading Philadelphia to the finals. 1226 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,400 Speaker 2: We would have said it was dumb and crazy in 1227 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 2: the moment, no different than we're saying the same thing 1228 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:10,759 Speaker 2: about Luca Now. 1229 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, and I think it's a good one because again, 1230 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 3: that was a guy where practice were talking about practice, 1231 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 3: and we had, like we had some off the court 1232 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 3: stuff that might have made him harder to deal with 1233 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 3: inside the front office. So you got the same thing 1234 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 3: with Luke. At least that's the storyline that you're getting 1235 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 3: from all these other kinds of things. I think another 1236 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,560 Speaker 3: example would be trading Dwight Howard after they lost to 1237 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:35,520 Speaker 3: the Lakers. Great call when he was in Orlando. It's 1238 00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 3: just it doesn't pass the smell test. Like I said, 1239 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 3: it may be a legitimate trade. I'm not out here 1240 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 3: calling it fraud. I'm saying that if we're doing a 1241 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 3: show six months from now after a bunch of stuff 1242 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 3: has been unearthed that we didn't know about, I'm not 1243 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 3: going to be shocked if we're doing that show and 1244 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 3: we can pull this audio then, because I think we're 1245 00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 3: both on the same page. It's like, we're not calling 1246 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 3: it fraud. We're not saying this conspiracy or anything else. 1247 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 3: We're just saying we can understand where some of those 1248 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:04,960 Speaker 3: thoughts are coming from. And if it turns out that 1249 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 3: that's the case, Oh okay, well yeah that makes sense. 1250 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 2: That's exactly how I feel, is I I'm you said 1251 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 2: it perfectly. I'm not saying it is fraud, but I 1252 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 2: but if something comes out I wouldn't be totally surprised either. 1253 00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio er tors Jason Martin, we are broadcasting 1254 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 2: live from the tirerac dot Com studios. 1255 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,760 Speaker 4: Will come back.

You know, 1325 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:51,840 Speaker 6: I'll try to have some fun. 1326 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 8: Sure, No way Florida goes to Auburn and win. 1327 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 6: No way, not gonna happen. 1328 01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 3: Guys, Oh it happened. 1329 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 4: Steve Sagred told you a little bit about it. 1330 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 3: But damn, let me ask you, man. 1331 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:04,640 Speaker 4: I want to I. 1332 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 2: Want to ask you actually about, in all seriousness, the 1333 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 2: scene down there, because by all reports it feels like 1334 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 2: it will get to the game in a minute. But 1335 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 2: by all reports, it feels like the city has been 1336 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 2: taken over by Philly fans. What would you say the 1337 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:22,960 Speaker 2: percentage of Philly fans on Bourbon Street are relative to 1338 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:24,960 Speaker 2: Chiefs fans? And do you think you know I was 1339 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 2: talking to producer Ian about this during the break is 1340 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 2: I do think when you have a team that has 1341 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 2: been highly successful, fans maybe start to take it for 1342 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:33,800 Speaker 2: granted a little bit. Do you just get the sense 1343 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 2: that Philly fans have taken over the city and do 1344 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 2: you think there's any you know, just Philly fans. I mean, 1345 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 2: I'm taking too long to get to the question Philly fans. 1346 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 2: Have they taken over Bourbon Street. 1347 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 3: In New Orleans? 1348 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 8: Actually, Aeron, I think that you're finding you to think 1349 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 8: all of the stuff that you were saying are things 1350 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:55,000 Speaker 8: that maybe some people are just presuming that are happening. 1351 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 8: And I will say this, I think Philly fans are 1352 01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:02,080 Speaker 8: obviously louder what I've notned. And as I've walked around 1353 01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 8: and I walked around the French Quarter on Thursday night, 1354 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:08,320 Speaker 8: and I walked around it earlier today, and I noticed 1355 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 8: fans from both teams. When I came back to my 1356 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 8: room and I was watching the local news to see 1357 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:17,360 Speaker 8: what they were doing, it seemed like there were more 1358 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 8: Eagles fans being interviewed. 1359 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 6: And I don't know if it's. 1360 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:23,320 Speaker 8: Just because they're louder. I don't know if it's because 1361 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:26,640 Speaker 8: they have more to say. But it may seem like 1362 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 8: this is just a dominant Philly, like a city dominated 1363 01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 8: by Eagles fans. But I do think that the Chiefs 1364 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 8: are representing. I felt like I saw a lot of red. 1365 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 6: I don't know if it's fifty to fifty. 1366 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,240 Speaker 8: But in my mind for what I was seeing out there, 1367 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,920 Speaker 8: it suirs. Heck, wasn't seventy five to twenty five. I mean, 1368 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 8: I was seeing a lot of Chiefs fans out there. 1369 01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 8: So I get the sense that people think it's going 1370 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 8: to be taken over by Philadelphia, and I think everything 1371 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 8: that you said, Aaron is what. 1372 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 6: People believe is. 1373 01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, the Chiefs, it's another Super Bowl. They don't care 1374 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:58,440 Speaker 8: as much, but I do at least have to give 1375 01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 8: them respect in terms of I feel that Kansas City 1376 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,439 Speaker 8: has shown up. It just maybe that the Eagles fans 1377 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 8: are louder and they may have more maybe fifty five 1378 01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 8: to forty five or sixty to forty. We'll find out 1379 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 8: tomorrow in the Dome on what it really is. But 1380 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,320 Speaker 8: I actually think Kansas City's represented pretty well. Maybe it's 1381 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:16,440 Speaker 8: just Philly so loud. 1382 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 3: Dan, what's the media? What do you think the media 1383 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:22,640 Speaker 3: tenor is right now when it comes to this matchup. 1384 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 3: I haven't looked at a bunch of people's predictions. I 1385 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 3: want to get my own at the end of the show. 1386 01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 3: But just like, what's the sense when you're just walking 1387 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 3: around talking to your colleagues or just talking to other 1388 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 3: people in the industry, is it kind of split or 1389 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 3: is one team seemingly the heavy favorite? 1390 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:42,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, I get the same thing. Probably if I talk 1391 01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 6: to ten people. 1392 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 8: It's eight eight out of ten times I hear I 1393 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 8: just can't pick against my Homes. And I don't know, obviously, guys, 1394 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 8: if it's because of how great they've been and how 1395 01:04:56,800 --> 01:05:00,320 Speaker 8: good they've been in close games this year, or it's 1396 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:03,080 Speaker 8: from the narrative of earlier this week that people think 1397 01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 8: that Mahomes is just going to get a call at 1398 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 8: the end of the game, which everybody tried to debunk, 1399 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,439 Speaker 8: and I think that it's kind of foolish, But I've 1400 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 8: gone along with stars get star calls all the time 1401 01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,960 Speaker 8: in every single sport, and it happens in the NFL 1402 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 8: as well. But the sense that I get for the 1403 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 8: people that are picking the Chiefs every time, I just 1404 01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 8: hear I can't bet against Patrick Mahomes, and that's I 1405 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 8: think that's actually pretty good for the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm 1406 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 8: siding with the Eagles. I just think that they're a 1407 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 8: better team. I think that the Chief's ultimate strength can 1408 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 8: be neutralized by Philly's offensive line, and that's the Chief's 1409 01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 8: defensive front. But everything that I hear from for people 1410 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 8: out there are why they pick the Chiefs. It's not 1411 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 8: about zager Worthy and the difference that he can make, 1412 01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 8: or what that defense can do, or Trent McDuffie or anything. 1413 01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 8: It's just they don't want to bet against Patrick Mahomes. 1414 01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,200 Speaker 2: Dan Bayer joining us live from New Orleans here on 1415 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Dan's been in New Orleans all week 1416 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 2: covering everything for the Doug Gottlieb Show, which you can 1417 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:09,640 Speaker 2: hear twelve to two Pacific here on Fox Sports Radio. 1418 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 2: Also Dan host with Kerry Rhodes every Sunday afternoon. Dan 1419 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 2: kind of a little bit of a weird question for me, 1420 01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,480 Speaker 2: which you know, you know tour is not all that surprising, 1421 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,840 Speaker 2: but you know, I've I've read a lot of articles 1422 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 2: this week about it has the Super Bowl out grown 1423 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:27,120 Speaker 2: New Orleans? Like you know, we've seen the stats that 1424 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 2: you know that hotel prices are now more expensive than 1425 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 2: tickets are, and as somebody who loves going to a 1426 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 2: big event in New Orleans, I've been to a Final 1427 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:35,560 Speaker 2: Four there. 1428 01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:36,439 Speaker 4: I've obviously never been. 1429 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 3: To a super Bowl. 1430 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 2: Do you get any sense that you know, do you 1431 01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 2: think that's an issue? Because it's such a great event city. 1432 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 2: I would hate to see it kind of fall out 1433 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 2: of the rotation. But as somebody who has been a 1434 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 2: big events there, I also know that it maybe isn't 1435 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 2: equipped for an event like the super Bowl, like it 1436 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:53,720 Speaker 2: was maybe thirty forty years ago. 1437 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,800 Speaker 8: You know, I haven't heard logistics problems like usually when 1438 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:01,520 Speaker 8: I hear people complaining, they get a plane and we'll 1439 01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 8: just use Arizona for an example. That was a couple 1440 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 8: of years ago. Because I actually think everything went really 1441 01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 8: great with Las Vegas last year, but in the Super 1442 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,760 Speaker 8: Bowls that we've had in the Phoenix area was man, 1443 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 8: everything is spread out. Everything is just so spread out. 1444 01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 8: It's difficult. And this is the opposite. And I think 1445 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 8: that there's some motivation and maybe some angling as well. 1446 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:24,360 Speaker 6: The NFL does this stuff. 1447 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:26,800 Speaker 8: They'll say, hey, maybe the stadium isn't up to par 1448 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,760 Speaker 8: so then this stadium makes renovations and they get what 1449 01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:32,480 Speaker 8: they got. This has been twelve years since we've had 1450 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 8: a super Bowl here, and it'd be crazy for me 1451 01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 8: to think that it would be another twelve years. I 1452 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:38,440 Speaker 8: don't know if the NFL has just. 1453 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 6: Tried to grab more. 1454 01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 8: But for everything that's been going on, everything essentially located, 1455 01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 8: it's great. Maybe that's a problem why some of the 1456 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 8: prices are so crazy because everything is just downtown here 1457 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 8: in New Orleans. But I don't think that it's I 1458 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 8: don't think it's a problem, Aaron, I haven't seen logistics problems. 1459 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 8: The city's old, so you're always going to get you know, 1460 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 8: backups of cars and stuff like that. But in terms 1461 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:08,000 Speaker 8: of like the price of hocality and what they you know, 1462 01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 8: what they may need to do in the future. It 1463 01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 8: may just be the NFL trying to push a message 1464 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 8: out there to all right, we want this, we want that. 1465 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 8: But it would be a darn shame if they ended 1466 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,719 Speaker 8: up leaving here because I know this for many people, 1467 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,679 Speaker 8: this is the top three super Bowl city venue, top 1468 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,640 Speaker 8: three sports venue, whether it be a Super Bowl or 1469 01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:27,799 Speaker 8: Final Four or whatever. 1470 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 3: So Dan, you know, all three of us have we've 1471 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,560 Speaker 3: done the radio road thing. We've been to super Bowls. 1472 01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 3: When you look at New Orleans now, coming off of 1473 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 3: the tragedy that happened during the College Football Playoff. Did 1474 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:46,680 Speaker 3: you notice increased security, increased presence, increased alertness compared to 1475 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:48,480 Speaker 3: Super Bowls of the past. 1476 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:53,559 Speaker 8: Yes, yes, and I think the central nature of it. 1477 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:56,760 Speaker 8: But to your point, I went with Jason Stewart, the 1478 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,559 Speaker 8: producer of the Doug Gottlieb Show, on Thursday night. We 1479 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 8: walked out and you know Memorial where you're where the 1480 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:09,640 Speaker 8: new tragedy occurred. Significant security present at that point. I 1481 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,400 Speaker 8: was down around Jackson Square this morning. You could see 1482 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 8: stuff on light bulbs and power pols of cameras and 1483 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,880 Speaker 8: other stuff, which I don't know if it was always there, 1484 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 8: but it was there this time around. And so you 1485 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 8: really do get that sense roads being blocked off. 1486 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 6: Obviously, the nature of the tragedy that we had, I 1487 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 6: think that was a big thing. 1488 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 8: So, yeah, it was different. I've been down here, guys, 1489 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 8: been down here at the Super Bowl twelve years ago. 1490 01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:39,360 Speaker 8: I've been here for Sugar Bowls. It did seem more 1491 01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,040 Speaker 8: significant than anything that. 1492 01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 6: I had dealt with in the past. 1493 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,040 Speaker 2: Dan Byer joining us Fox Sports Radio. Of course you 1494 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 2: can hear Dan every Sunday afternoon with Carrie Rhodes and 1495 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 2: of course with Doug Gottlieb. 1496 01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 4: On the Doug Gottlieb Show. 1497 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 2: Last one for me, Dan, just you know, listen, you 1498 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 2: talked about the we can't bet against mahomes and that 1499 01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 2: does feel like kind of just a theme in general 1500 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:04,240 Speaker 2: as far as you know, people breaking it down inside, outside, 1501 01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:07,240 Speaker 2: fan whatever. What was the vibe being around the two teams? 1502 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I assume you were at media night on Monday. 1503 01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 2: But and I'll let me even take it this direction 1504 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 2: is we had Sean Brace on a Fox Sports radio 1505 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 2: host in Philly. 1506 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:17,360 Speaker 4: And I asked him. 1507 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 2: I said, you know, on the one hand, you think 1508 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,280 Speaker 2: Philly having face Casey on this stage would help them. 1509 01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,759 Speaker 2: On the other hand, it hasn't helped Buffalo, it hasn't 1510 01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:28,439 Speaker 2: helped San Francisco, who's played them twice in a Super Bowl. Like, 1511 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,560 Speaker 2: do you get the sense of confidence from Philly? Do 1512 01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 2: you get the sense of any sort of whatever, not 1513 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 2: being scared? But you know, kind of I don't know 1514 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 2: what's the vibe with the two teams as we get 1515 01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 2: set to play this game on Sunday. 1516 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:44,639 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'll tell you a couple of things quick. First, 1517 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 8: So I think at the town until Tuesday night, So 1518 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 8: I wasn't around for media night on Monday. But what 1519 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 8: I can tell you and I wasn't able to follow 1520 01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:53,800 Speaker 8: the team's here the previous Super Bowls that I've had, 1521 01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:56,720 Speaker 8: I was about zero to seven when I felt like, Oh, 1522 01:10:56,760 --> 01:10:59,519 Speaker 8: this team seems loose and this team seems tight, so I'm. 1523 01:10:59,360 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 6: Gonna go with it. 1524 01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 8: That's loose, They're going to win the Super Bowl and 1525 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 8: then they ultimately lose. I don't think you can get 1526 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 8: a read from. 1527 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:07,479 Speaker 6: What happens during the week. 1528 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:11,080 Speaker 8: I think your point of Philadelphia and the previous Super 1529 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:14,360 Speaker 8: Bowl helps. I also think it really helps that Jalen 1530 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 8: Hurts has. 1531 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 6: Gone through this. 1532 01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:17,479 Speaker 8: I actually feel he's kind of in a no win 1533 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,360 Speaker 8: situation in this game unless he performs out of his 1534 01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 8: mind like he did two years ago. But a lot 1535 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:26,840 Speaker 8: of the newbies on Philadelphia are on defense, and maybe 1536 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,720 Speaker 8: Patrick Mahomes takes advantage of that. But I'd rather have 1537 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 8: newbies on defense the newbies on offense and playing in. 1538 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:34,640 Speaker 6: This big stage. And the only newbe. 1539 01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:37,400 Speaker 8: Philadelphia really has to take on Barkley and I'm not 1540 01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:39,960 Speaker 8: worried about him at all. So I think Philadelphia is 1541 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:44,320 Speaker 8: pretty well prepped in this situation here, but you never 1542 01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:46,800 Speaker 8: know until kickoff. Heck, we never know if something could 1543 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 8: happen tonight guys, you know, with one of the teams, 1544 01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,679 Speaker 8: and we wake up tomorrow morning and there's a different 1545 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 8: story going on. We've had it happen at Super Bowls before, 1546 01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 8: so I think it's just difficult to tell during the 1547 01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 8: week whether you're with the teams or not to really 1548 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:02,800 Speaker 8: a sense. Obviously, Kansas City is comfortable here because they've 1549 01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:06,679 Speaker 8: been here into the previous five years, in the last 1550 01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:09,560 Speaker 8: two for sure. But I think Philadelphia, at least for 1551 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,800 Speaker 8: the guys that came back, tend to know the whole 1552 01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,920 Speaker 8: situation as well and shouldn't shouldn't be steeling any anks 1553 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,439 Speaker 8: towards the game on Sunday. 1554 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,839 Speaker 3: Dan Gutfilin, do you think the referees are a story 1555 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 3: on Monday? 1556 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 8: Yes, I do. 1557 01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 6: I always think that they will be. Well. 1558 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 8: Heckay, we're the last time these two teams played, right. 1559 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,360 Speaker 8: I mean, it's on the holding call at the end 1560 01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 8: of the game that allowed Kansas City to run the 1561 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,479 Speaker 8: clock out. It was it was a call at that situation. 1562 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 8: I don't know if it's going to be Kansas City 1563 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:43,400 Speaker 8: again gets a break, or it's the referees made up 1564 01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 8: for all of the Kansas City, Love and Philadelphia. 1565 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:46,559 Speaker 6: I got a call. 1566 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 8: But there's going to be something that we're going to 1567 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 8: be talking about ultimate because I think I think everybody 1568 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 8: realizes it's going to be a close game. We have 1569 01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:55,040 Speaker 8: a game with a one point spread, and if it 1570 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 8: was if it was a two score game, it wouldn't 1571 01:12:57,240 --> 01:12:58,000 Speaker 8: be a conversation. 1572 01:12:58,120 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 6: But I don't think any of us expect that. 1573 01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:02,960 Speaker 2: All I'll say is I was on air with Ephim 1574 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 2: Salaam for the Casey Buffalo game this year, and it 1575 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 2: was just so clear that Buffalo was tight and Casey 1576 01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 2: made all the big plays late and everyone was still like, oh, 1577 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 2: you know, if you go back to that third down 1578 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:16,559 Speaker 2: and you know with nine minutes to go, I'm like, 1579 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 2: there was like three touchdowns scored after the nine minute marks, 1580 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 2: so it's like stop. So I think to your point, Dan, 1581 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:23,880 Speaker 2: it's always going to be an issue with Casey. People 1582 01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 2: are going to see what they want to see. I 1583 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:27,679 Speaker 2: just hope we get a great game. That is of course, 1584 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 2: Dan Bayer.

I 1586 01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:34,160 Speaker 2: don't mean to put you on the spot here. I 1587 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:35,920 Speaker 2: know there's a chance you could be either going to 1588 01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 2: the game, traveling to the game. 1589 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 3: Whatever. 1590 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 2: Are you on tomorrow? Are you just corresponding for us here? 1591 01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, I will be at the game, guys, So I 1592 01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:45,240 Speaker 8: will not be on tomorrow.

That trade has been rescinded after reportedly 1653 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 9: he failed his physical. Now, of course, Fox TV will 1654 01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:44,920 Speaker 9: have the Super Bowl Eagles Chiefs tomorrow and a long 1655 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 9: pregame show as well. We'll have you covered here live 1656 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 9: on Fox Sports Radio and you'll be on the air 1657 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:54,439 Speaker 9: what like half hour hour after the finil I mean 1658 01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 9: last year, me and j Mark got on ninety seconds after. 1659 01:16:57,800 --> 01:16:59,519 Speaker 4: The final and overtime. 1660 01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. 1661 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 9: It's the Eagles seventeen and three against the Chiefs seventeen 1662 01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:08,599 Speaker 9: and two. And keep in mind, Kansasity had a good 1663 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:11,880 Speaker 9: start to their last game, very good start, touchdowns on 1664 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:14,840 Speaker 9: their three of their first four drives against Buffalo, and 1665 01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:17,000 Speaker 9: they wound up needing that late field goal to win. 1666 01:17:17,760 --> 01:17:20,160 Speaker 9: Travis Kelcey only had two catches in that game and 1667 01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:23,599 Speaker 9: they still advanced. Patrick Mahomes had two touchdown runs, one 1668 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 9: touchdown pass, and a fumble. So Casey's won the last 1669 01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 9: two Super Bowls. The last NFL team to win three 1670 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:33,200 Speaker 9: straight championships, yes it has happened before, was Lombardi's Packers 1671 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:37,920 Speaker 9: in the nineteen sixties. Casey that AFC Championship Game victory. 1672 01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:41,919 Speaker 9: It was its thirteenth win this season by single digits. 1673 01:17:42,320 --> 01:17:45,360 Speaker 9: This is just astonishing that this keeps going on. Most 1674 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,600 Speaker 9: such wins in a single season by any team in 1675 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 9: NFL history regular season in playoffs. You'd have to go 1676 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 9: back a couple of Christmases to find the last close 1677 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 9: game that the Chiefs lost. Two years ago, Casey beat 1678 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 9: Philadelphia in the Super Bowl thirty five on a late 1679 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:04,559 Speaker 9: field goal in Arizona, Key in the first half. Jalen 1680 01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,760 Speaker 9: Hurts had that fumble return for a touchdown. He did 1681 01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 9: have three touchdown runs in defeat. But Casey's back in 1682 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,519 Speaker 9: the big game in the Super Bowl five times in 1683 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 9: the last six years. Now Here the Chiefs franchise had 1684 01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:20,639 Speaker 9: one Super Bowl win in the first fifty three years 1685 01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:23,640 Speaker 9: of Super Bowl history, and now they've defeated San Francisco 1686 01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,920 Speaker 9: twice and maybe Philadelphia twice. They are going up against 1687 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 9: a Philly team that was the number one defense in 1688 01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:32,479 Speaker 9: the regular season. The Chiefs these last couple of years 1689 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 9: have a much improved defense. They were top five in 1690 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,360 Speaker 9: the league and allowing just nineteen points per game this 1691 01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:41,879 Speaker 9: past year. Remember in the Division round a win against Houston, 1692 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 9: the defense had eight sacks. I love this stat to 1693 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 9: Patrick Mahomes, who was a first round draft choice in 1694 01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 9: twenty seventeen. Well, no quarterback drafted in twenty eighteen or 1695 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:53,760 Speaker 9: after in any round has won a Super Bowl yet. 1696 01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:57,160 Speaker 9: Not Josh Allen, beaten by Mahomes four times. Not Joe Burrow, 1697 01:18:57,200 --> 01:19:00,559 Speaker 9: not Lamar Jackson. Keep going down the lists. The city 1698 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:03,799 Speaker 9: is back in the big game, having won an NFL 1699 01:19:03,880 --> 01:19:08,439 Speaker 9: record seventeen straight one possession games, and in fact, since 1700 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:11,759 Speaker 9: the start of the twenty nineteen postseason, the Chiefs offense 1701 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:14,599 Speaker 9: when they're down a score fourth quarter overtime, they've had 1702 01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:18,840 Speaker 9: eleven playoff drives and eleven scores. So if it's close 1703 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 9: in the fourth we've seen it before. 1704 01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:23,680 Speaker 4: Those stats about one score games, they're just unbelievable. 1705 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:27,880 Speaker 2: So we'll see if anything changes on Sunday, of course, 1706 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,920 Speaker 2: where the Eagles will face the Chiefs.

Uh, we'll give our picks. By the way, 1742 01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 2: at the bottom of the hour, hour one. We talked 1743 01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:18,680 Speaker 2: a lot about just you know, what Philly needs you 1744 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 2: to win, what Kansas City needs to do to keep 1745 01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:24,360 Speaker 2: doing what they've been doing. I want to switch gears 1746 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:26,479 Speaker 2: kind of to kind of an offshoot topic that I 1747 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:28,439 Speaker 2: think is going to be a fascinating thing to kind 1748 01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 2: of monitor over the course of the game. Do you 1749 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:33,639 Speaker 2: want to talk a little bit about Tom Brady's first 1750 01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 2: Super Bowl? Not as a player, of course, but as 1751 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 2: a broadcaster. You know, listen, I know it's a little 1752 01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 2: weird because we're Fox, but at the same time, I 1753 01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:45,720 Speaker 2: think it's a conversation worth having because you know, how 1754 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:49,559 Speaker 2: like you know, like say, like Caleb Williams, right, He's like, oh, 1755 01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:53,080 Speaker 2: he's one of the most you know, under the microscope 1756 01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,719 Speaker 2: players ever. You know, he came up in the nil era, 1757 01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:58,840 Speaker 2: you know whatever, blah blah blah blah. I feel like 1758 01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:02,040 Speaker 2: Tom Brady is he has to be the most under 1759 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:06,640 Speaker 2: the microscope first year broadcaster ever. And part of it 1760 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:09,679 Speaker 2: is I get it, he's Tom Brady. He is the goat. 1761 01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:12,599 Speaker 2: I would also add that on top of it, he's 1762 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:16,000 Speaker 2: getting paid a handsome sum. He took over for a 1763 01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:20,919 Speaker 2: very popular broadcaster in Greg Olsen. But I'm just curious 1764 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 2: what the response will be on Sunday night tom Brady 1765 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 2: in his first Super Bowl. What do you expect to 1766 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,840 Speaker 2: hear from the all time great player in what will 1767 01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:31,000 Speaker 2: be his first Super Bowl call. 1768 01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:33,400 Speaker 3: I think he'll be just fine, but I think he 1769 01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:36,840 Speaker 3: will get absolutely mauled. And I mean by social media 1770 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 3: and the instant reaction, because we've seen this all year long. 1771 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:44,720 Speaker 3: If you go to any kind of forums, if you 1772 01:22:44,760 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 3: look at like comment sections, which well you shouldn't, but 1773 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 3: he gets crushed all the time. And you know, those 1774 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:58,719 Speaker 3: that cover the media themselves, they've been critical of him 1775 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,519 Speaker 3: a few different times this year. But not that much. 1776 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 3: I think he's been fine. I've enjoyed listening to him. 1777 01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:09,240 Speaker 3: He's not a natural broadcaster, he's a natural quarterback. He's 1778 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:13,600 Speaker 3: a natural football player. He's not, you know, as polished, 1779 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 3: but I get the energy and it seems like he 1780 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:18,880 Speaker 3: is putting in the work to try and get better. 1781 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,760 Speaker 3: I remember, you know, Romo was the greatest thing we'd 1782 01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 3: ever heard at first, and now the bloom's off that 1783 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:27,080 Speaker 3: rose for a lot of people. I've always thought Aikman 1784 01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:28,880 Speaker 3: was good, but a lot of people don't like Aikman. 1785 01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:33,040 Speaker 3: You can find somebody that hates everybody, but when it 1786 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:37,280 Speaker 3: comes to Brady, it seems like it is more vociferous. 1787 01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:39,479 Speaker 3: It seems like everybody is out for this guy. And 1788 01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:41,439 Speaker 3: I think it just goes back to finally we can 1789 01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:45,280 Speaker 3: take this dude down a peg. And I don't think. 1790 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 3: I think if he had not displaced Olsen, Okay, if 1791 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 3: he had just been you know, b C in year 1792 01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:54,720 Speaker 3: one something like that and kind of grown into the role, 1793 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:56,639 Speaker 3: I don't think it would have had the same effect. 1794 01:23:56,640 --> 01:24:01,320 Speaker 3: The difference for CBS when what happened to them happened 1795 01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:05,320 Speaker 3: was Phil Simms was not particularly popular. People didn't really 1796 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 3: think he was all that good they You know, there 1797 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,439 Speaker 3: was the whole Phil Simms quotes Twitter account. I remember 1798 01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:14,439 Speaker 3: that that thing was hilarious, and when Romo came in, 1799 01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:17,080 Speaker 3: it was a breath of fresh air. Here. Olsen had 1800 01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:18,960 Speaker 3: just gotten into the job and he was as good 1801 01:24:19,040 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 3: as we had heard in a long time. And I 1802 01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:23,000 Speaker 3: think that was part of it. It was just like he's 1803 01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:25,120 Speaker 3: just going to waltz in here because he's Tom Brady, 1804 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:27,679 Speaker 3: which of course he is. Like if Michael Jordan wanted 1805 01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:30,080 Speaker 3: to call an NBA game, he's probably gonna call the 1806 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,840 Speaker 3: biggest one that they can find because he's going to 1807 01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,439 Speaker 3: be box office and there's a curiosity factor as well 1808 01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 3: as well. I want to hear what Tom Brady has 1809 01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 3: to say, or I want to hear what Michael Jordan 1810 01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:40,680 Speaker 3: has to say. It's always going to be that way. 1811 01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:42,599 Speaker 3: It doesn't mean they're gonna be the best broadcaster, just 1812 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 3: like Michael Jordan's not a great owner an the NBA 1813 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 3: and we've seen that throughout time. So these skills don't 1814 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 3: necessarily transfer over. He was blessed with one skill. Perhaps 1815 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:56,639 Speaker 3: he's not a natural as a broadcaster, but I do 1816 01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:58,760 Speaker 3: think that a lot of this is just because it's 1817 01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:02,760 Speaker 3: Tom Brady. You've gotten no chance really to dog on 1818 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 3: him on the field, and even the kind of rebirth 1819 01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 3: in Tampa Bay that everybody liked, I think now people 1820 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,160 Speaker 3: can just kind of go after him because they can 1821 01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 3: see the flaws as opposed to giving him any level 1822 01:25:15,080 --> 01:25:17,040 Speaker 3: of grace, which I don't think anyone really has. 1823 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I largely basically agree with pretty much everything that 1824 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:24,759 Speaker 2: you've just said. Is I think it is a variable 1825 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 2: of nobody wants to see Tom Brady be good at 1826 01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 2: something else. And you know, let me say this, I'm 1827 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:32,519 Speaker 2: kind of with you, is that. Listen, I don't think 1828 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,000 Speaker 2: he's the most polished analyst that has ever walked the 1829 01:25:35,040 --> 01:25:37,439 Speaker 2: face of the earth. But it's also year one and 1830 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 2: I don't know why people expected that. Here's my other thing, too, 1831 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:45,000 Speaker 2: is I sort of get the Greg Olsen side of things. 1832 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:46,040 Speaker 4: He was very popular. 1833 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,320 Speaker 2: Whether you know whoever personally likes him or not, he 1834 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 2: was a pretty popular guy. But the counter to that 1835 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 2: is exactly what you just said, is like he's Tom Brady. Like, 1836 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but you're not putting him on the Panther 1837 01:25:58,240 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 2: Saints game to get reps, Like you're just not, you know, 1838 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:01,920 Speaker 2: and so. 1839 01:26:04,160 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 3: He was. 1840 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 4: And by the way, it's it's twofold. It's one. 1841 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:09,960 Speaker 2: Fox is not gonna put Tom Brady out because why 1842 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 2: would he? And Tom Brady isn't gonna come in as 1843 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:15,800 Speaker 2: the quote unquote sixth round draft pick of broadcasting and 1844 01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 2: volunteer to do it. You know, If I'm gonna do this, 1845 01:26:18,080 --> 01:26:19,720 Speaker 2: I'm gonna do it at the highest level. And and 1846 01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,760 Speaker 2: so I just you know, listen, I get that no 1847 01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 2: matter what it is, everyone is going to be critical. 1848 01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:28,599 Speaker 4: And I'm it's hard. 1849 01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:30,160 Speaker 2: I don't want to sit here and say, oh, I'm 1850 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 2: so surprised that people are mean, because it's people are 1851 01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 2: are not impressed, because it's like everyone on the internet 1852 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:39,479 Speaker 2: hates everything. But it's just like, I don't know, man, It's. 1853 01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,360 Speaker 3: Just I don't think he has a chance of being 1854 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:44,599 Speaker 3: said is doing a good job tomorrow. And I think 1855 01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 3: that's unfair. Like I don't think he's gonna be judged 1856 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 3: on what he actually does. He's gonna be judged based 1857 01:26:50,240 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 3: on he's Tom Brady, and that creates a problem for 1858 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:56,280 Speaker 3: some people. And I just I don't think that a 1859 01:26:56,320 --> 01:26:58,479 Speaker 3: lot of this stuff has been done in good faith. 1860 01:26:58,560 --> 01:26:59,960 Speaker 3: And that's My only problem with it. If he was 1861 01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 3: legitimately just awful and the worst thing we'd ever heard, 1862 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,559 Speaker 3: that'd be one thing. But one he's not. And two again, 1863 01:27:06,040 --> 01:27:08,320 Speaker 3: this is a dude that played football and that's always 1864 01:27:08,360 --> 01:27:10,720 Speaker 3: known for the last couple of decades. And now he's 1865 01:27:10,720 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 3: coming in and you know, I don't think he came 1866 01:27:13,240 --> 01:27:15,400 Speaker 3: in and demanded that he was gonna be the A 1867 01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:18,320 Speaker 3: list announcer or whatever like that. But again, you're not 1868 01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,599 Speaker 3: gonna bring him in like Mark Sanchez, I think does 1869 01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:23,440 Speaker 3: a nice job for Fox. I enjoy listening to Mark Sanchez. 1870 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:28,640 Speaker 3: Mark Sanchez is gonna call Saints Panthers, He's gonna have 1871 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,920 Speaker 3: to earn that, right. But Tom Brady everybody wants to 1872 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,639 Speaker 3: hear Tom Brady for whatever reason. But now it's just like, oh, 1873 01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:37,960 Speaker 3: I've seen a bunch of like we're gonna watch this 1874 01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 3: game on mute and all this stuff. It's like, all right, man, 1875 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 3: I do you like? That's just absolutely ridiculous, and I 1876 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,840 Speaker 3: think it's unfair. I think my guess is Tom's gonna 1877 01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 3: do just fine. I think he'll be into it. He's 1878 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:51,720 Speaker 3: gonna have a lot of insight about being in the 1879 01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:55,680 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. That almost nobody else could because dude understands 1880 01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 3: what it's like to play in this game, and he 1881 01:27:57,800 --> 01:27:59,880 Speaker 3: understands what it's like to face off against ma Home 1882 01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:02,120 Speaker 3: in this game. So I mean, I think it gives 1883 01:28:02,160 --> 01:28:05,040 Speaker 3: him a unique perspective. And so I think that those 1884 01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:07,479 Speaker 3: that that try that mute route are gonna be making 1885 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 3: a mistake. 1886 01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:10,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree with it. I agree with that, 1887 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 2: And it's just those comments drive me so crazy. 1888 01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:14,760 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we watch that. 1889 01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:16,799 Speaker 2: No, you're not stop. First of all, you're having a party. 1890 01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 2: There's gonna be theater people there, You're turn on, you're 1891 01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 2: turning on the radio broadcast, You're you're you know, or 1892 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,000 Speaker 2: what are we doing here? So I think it'll be 1893 01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 2: an interesting conversation. I mean, listen, we got another hour 1894 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,200 Speaker 2: to break break this thing down, and we'll give our 1895 01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:31,680 Speaker 2: picks at the end of the show. We'll probably talk 1896 01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:35,200 Speaker 2: a little Sirianni, Jalen Hurts, et cetera. Any other like 1897 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:37,599 Speaker 2: first glance things that stand out and now we're one 1898 01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:39,519 Speaker 2: we just kind of talked about, I mean, you know, 1899 01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:42,200 Speaker 2: the cliche stuff of what Philly has to do, what 1900 01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 2: Kansas City has to do, uh, anything else really stand 1901 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 2: out as far as just obvious things that you're intrigued 1902 01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 2: by going into this game. 1903 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:52,559 Speaker 3: I don't know, Like I didn't pay too close of 1904 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 3: attention to anything that was being said by the teams 1905 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:59,200 Speaker 3: of sales. Anybody said anything dumb, Like, I haven't really 1906 01:28:59,280 --> 01:29:04,080 Speaker 3: noticed anything crazy being said by anybody. Nothing that's gonna 1907 01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:07,840 Speaker 3: be bulletin board material. It seems like both teams are 1908 01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:10,920 Speaker 3: kind of showing some respect for one another. I could 1909 01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:13,439 Speaker 3: be wrong, but I certainly haven't seen a bunch of 1910 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:17,040 Speaker 3: hot takes about X player saying X thing. 1911 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:22,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, producer and real quick, have you heard anything super controversial? Yeah, 1912 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:23,680 Speaker 2: Ian shake and it said you can hop a. 1913 01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 4: Definitely, haven't You guys are totally right? 1914 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think it's in and listen, I think 1915 01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:31,840 Speaker 2: it's it's two things, right, you know. One Mahomes is, 1916 01:29:32,439 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 2: like many great superstars, the least interesting interview ever. You know, 1917 01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:37,160 Speaker 2: the Chiefs have been here before, and I think Philly 1918 01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 2: smart enough to know like, hey, like we are the underdog, 1919 01:29:40,160 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 2: and hey like we do have like like you know, 1920 01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 2: there's no reason to give them anything extra. So yeah, 1921 01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 2: I don't know that there's been anything super interesting coming 1922 01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:49,599 Speaker 2: out of Super Bowl Week. 1923 01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:51,320 Speaker 4: Generally, there rarely is. 1924 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,320 Speaker 2: It was funny we had on Sean Bracon, our one 1925 01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 2: from Fox Sports Radio Philadelphia, the Gambler, and he said, 1926 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:58,040 Speaker 2: he's like, dude, I'm just tired of talking about this game, Like, 1927 01:29:58,120 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 2: let's just play the game. 1928 01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:01,320 Speaker 4: And I do think I think. 1929 01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 2: He speaks for a lot of us because we've had 1930 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:07,000 Speaker 2: two weeks to break this thing down, and certainly there's 1931 01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:09,800 Speaker 2: been plenty to talk about, and there will still be plenty. 1932 01:30:09,840 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 2: There's not a ton of new ground to cover, but 1933 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,479 Speaker 2: that said, we're gonna try anyway. Fox Sports Radio aertors 1934 01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:17,920 Speaker 2: Jason Martin. We're broadcasting live from the Tiret dot Com studios. 1935 01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:19,760 Speaker 2: When we come back, I do want to have some 1936 01:30:19,800 --> 01:30:21,519 Speaker 2: of the conversations I know some of the other people 1937 01:30:21,520 --> 01:30:25,200 Speaker 2: on these airwaves have had, but most specifically about Philadelphia. 1938 01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:28,760 Speaker 2: You know, maybe we talked a little bit about Mahomes 1939 01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 2: and all that, but I do think there's some interesting 1940 01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:34,920 Speaker 2: conversations about what does this game mean for Sirianni, what 1941 01:30:34,920 --> 01:30:36,479 Speaker 2: does it mean for Jalen Hurts, what does it mean 1942 01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:38,679 Speaker 2: for the Eagles. So we will come back and discuss 1943 01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:41,439 Speaker 2: things from the Eagles perspective and what happens if they 1944 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:44,840 Speaker 2: can somehow pull off the upset.

Seventeen game. 1960 01:31:37,760 --> 01:31:39,240 Speaker 3: Game starts in thirty minutes. 1961 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:43,640 Speaker 4: Pregame starts at thirty minutes. I mean, well pretty. 1962 01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:45,240 Speaker 3: Soon, right, yeah, I mean it's usually pretty long. I 1963 01:31:45,280 --> 01:31:47,800 Speaker 3: think they start around one o'clock something like that. 1964 01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:50,599 Speaker 2: It's it's pretty early. It's pretty early. And by the way, 1965 01:31:50,640 --> 01:31:53,160 Speaker 2: if you need pregame at two am Easter Time. Bernie 1966 01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:55,840 Speaker 2: Fraddo is the guy for you. He'll be following us. Yeah, 1967 01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:59,240 Speaker 2: a lot of pregame and then a great game starting 1968 01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:03,840 Speaker 2: at six thirty Eastern time. Cannot wait. Let's just dive 1969 01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:05,719 Speaker 2: into some of the conversations that we could be having 1970 01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:09,200 Speaker 2: on Monday. First of all, it's the oldest cliche. There's 1971 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:13,360 Speaker 2: a million cliches. But what do you think the number 1972 01:32:13,439 --> 01:32:17,920 Speaker 2: one topic will be if the Kansas City Chiefs win 1973 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:19,559 Speaker 2: this Super Bowl on Sunday? 1974 01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:25,120 Speaker 3: This the most well, I think the topics probably going 1975 01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:26,840 Speaker 3: to be is just the most impressive thing we've ever 1976 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:30,559 Speaker 3: seen from an NFL franchise, Like it's this dynasty now 1977 01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,760 Speaker 3: supplanting any other that has come before because of the 1978 01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:38,000 Speaker 3: three peat. I think that's probably it. And then you 1979 01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:42,080 Speaker 3: get to the individual accolades, and I think the most 1980 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:46,040 Speaker 3: the argument that's coming immediately is has Mahomes supplant Brady? 1981 01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:48,840 Speaker 2: That's why I think it'll be. Yeah, I think it'll 1982 01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:52,840 Speaker 2: immediately default past the team awards and it'll turn into 1983 01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:55,040 Speaker 2: Brady versus Mahomes. Do you have a strong take on 1984 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,800 Speaker 2: if we should be even having that conversation on Super 1985 01:32:57,840 --> 01:32:58,840 Speaker 2: Bowl Sunday? And a Monday. 1986 01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:02,559 Speaker 3: I think it's fair. I mean, obviously not total Super 1987 01:33:02,560 --> 01:33:05,880 Speaker 3: Bowls and hasn't been for as long, but there's not 1988 01:33:06,120 --> 01:33:10,120 Speaker 3: been a stretch by an NFL player ever like what 1989 01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,400 Speaker 3: we've seen from Mahomes at this point. As great as 1990 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:17,200 Speaker 3: Brady was throughout his career, the way this career has 1991 01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:20,439 Speaker 3: started for Patrick Mahomes is unlike anything we have ever 1992 01:33:20,479 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 3: seen before and probably ever we'll see again. I mean, 1993 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:27,920 Speaker 3: he keeps vanquishing every foe that seems to have his number. 1994 01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:31,519 Speaker 3: No one has his number. It just he just keeps 1995 01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:33,600 Speaker 3: on doing this. And if he goes out there and 1996 01:33:33,640 --> 01:33:36,240 Speaker 3: he has some kind of unbelievable game, or he pulls 1997 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 3: the rabbit out of the hat at the end of 1998 01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:40,800 Speaker 3: a game that they're trailing and they find a way 1999 01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:44,640 Speaker 3: to win, I mean, how would you have a problem 2000 01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:47,120 Speaker 3: with having that discussion? I think it would be I 2001 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 3: think you'd be hard pressed to have some kind of 2002 01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:52,120 Speaker 3: an issue with that in that case. 2003 01:33:53,120 --> 01:33:55,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that I have an issue. You know, 2004 01:33:55,800 --> 01:33:57,600 Speaker 2: sometimes I think we get a lot I think a 2005 01:33:57,640 --> 01:33:58,840 Speaker 2: lot of times. 2006 01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:00,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, we definitely, we definitely could put the cart ahead 2007 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:03,080 Speaker 3: of the horse and do all that kind of stuff. 2008 01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:04,599 Speaker 3: We had that talk. Remember we had to talk about 2009 01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:08,599 Speaker 3: Jokic and Anthony. Is this guy that great? Is this 2010 01:34:08,640 --> 01:34:10,920 Speaker 3: guy the next da da da? No, just let him 2011 01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:14,040 Speaker 3: be Nikola Jokic. You don't have to. We don't have 2012 01:34:14,080 --> 01:34:16,479 Speaker 3: to contextualize this in the annals of history, even though 2013 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:18,960 Speaker 3: the sports ends up being that. But I think at 2014 01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:22,439 Speaker 3: this point, as long as we have seen Mahomes doing 2015 01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:26,400 Speaker 3: this very thing, if they beat a team that on paper, 2016 01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:28,559 Speaker 3: I think the Eagles are the better football team if 2017 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:31,160 Speaker 3: they do this and Mahomes is and we have to 2018 01:34:31,200 --> 01:34:36,040 Speaker 3: assume he would be the likely reason why. Uh. I 2019 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:38,960 Speaker 3: think at that point, if we're going to have that discussion, 2020 01:34:39,160 --> 01:34:41,080 Speaker 3: that's about the most valid time too. 2021 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, the only you know one I just me personally, 2022 01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:47,639 Speaker 2: and by the way, that is one where you turn 2023 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:50,559 Speaker 2: on whatever show. I have no problem with the conversation happening. 2024 01:34:50,600 --> 01:34:52,760 Speaker 2: I don't think it would be necessarily getting too far 2025 01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 2: ahead of ourselves. I think it'd be a little bit. 2026 01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:58,960 Speaker 2: The only thing that would make me hesitate about getting 2027 01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:03,240 Speaker 2: too comfy saying that he is or will be. Andy 2028 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:05,799 Speaker 2: Reid is sixty six years old and he'll be sixty 2029 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,560 Speaker 2: seven in March, and you know, It's funny. I was 2030 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:09,960 Speaker 2: talking to Brandon and Ian before the show about this 2031 01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:15,280 Speaker 2: is that, you know, I don't really understand the Andy 2032 01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 2: Reid is this year last year situation. Now, certainly a 2033 01:35:18,360 --> 01:35:21,920 Speaker 2: health situation could come up sixty soon to be sixty 2034 01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:24,280 Speaker 2: seven years old. But I was telling Brandon, I was like, 2035 01:35:24,600 --> 01:35:26,920 Speaker 2: you know, Andy Reid coach. Andy Reid coach a lot 2036 01:35:26,920 --> 01:35:29,960 Speaker 2: of Kevin Cobbs, and you know, Alex Smith's to get 2037 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:32,760 Speaker 2: to Patrick Mahomes, like, I don't know why you walk 2038 01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:35,640 Speaker 2: out on an all time great in his prime. But 2039 01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:38,320 Speaker 2: then you do wonder what if you want to call 2040 01:35:38,320 --> 01:35:40,920 Speaker 2: it a succession plan, like what comes after Andy Reid? 2041 01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:43,600 Speaker 2: That'd be the only reason that I'd sit there and say, like, 2042 01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:48,400 Speaker 2: you know, I know what trajectory Mahomes is on. But 2043 01:35:48,479 --> 01:35:52,160 Speaker 2: it also feels a little bit presumptuous to, you know, 2044 01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:54,360 Speaker 2: to assume that Andy Reid is going to be there 2045 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:56,679 Speaker 2: that much longer, and then what what becomes the conversation 2046 01:35:56,720 --> 01:35:57,080 Speaker 2: at that point? 2047 01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:57,920 Speaker 4: You know, I'm looking right now. 2048 01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:01,720 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick was forty nine when the Patriots won their 2049 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,599 Speaker 2: first Super Bowl. Now, obviously he was probably a little 2050 01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:08,439 Speaker 2: closer to let's see here when they won their when 2051 01:36:08,439 --> 01:36:09,719 Speaker 2: he won his fourth. 2052 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:11,880 Speaker 4: I want to see how old he was. It's it's 2053 01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:13,200 Speaker 4: not super important. 2054 01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 2: But so they beat the So they beat the the 2055 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:22,880 Speaker 2: Seahawks in twenty fifteen. So he was born in fifty two, 2056 01:36:23,920 --> 01:36:26,200 Speaker 2: so that would be what fifty that would be sixty three, 2057 01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:28,879 Speaker 2: So sixty three, so about the same age as Mahomes 2058 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:30,880 Speaker 2: or not not about same age, about three four years 2059 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:33,160 Speaker 2: younger than Andy Reid would be when he won his fourth. 2060 01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:36,599 Speaker 2: That would be my only hesitation, my only concern really quickly. 2061 01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:39,880 Speaker 2: You know, we had Sean brace On earlier in the 2062 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:43,200 Speaker 2: show from Philadelphia. He's great as always, And my only 2063 01:36:43,280 --> 01:36:46,880 Speaker 2: question for you is, you know we asked him about 2064 01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:50,480 Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni. You and I have had conversations about Nick Sirianni. 2065 01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:53,680 Speaker 2: Like you know, legacy is not the right word, but 2066 01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:56,360 Speaker 2: what do you think the conversation is about Nick s Gurianni. 2067 01:36:56,400 --> 01:37:00,000 Speaker 2: Come Monday, if the Philadelphia Eagles pull off the upside 2068 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:00,960 Speaker 2: on Sunday. 2069 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:03,840 Speaker 3: Well I think at that point you have to say, 2070 01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:06,360 Speaker 3: all right, so he has the chance to come out 2071 01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:09,840 Speaker 3: of this feeling like Kyle Shanahan, where Shanahan has lost 2072 01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:12,400 Speaker 3: a couple of course, Shanahan was at the helm of 2073 01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 3: the twenty eight to three game, as well as the 2074 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:18,000 Speaker 3: offensive coordinator for Dan Quinn's Falcons at the time. But 2075 01:37:18,400 --> 01:37:21,240 Speaker 3: so let's say Sirianni does pull it off, like you're saying, 2076 01:37:21,680 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 3: then he dodges that bullet that Shanahan had to take 2077 01:37:25,439 --> 01:37:30,639 Speaker 3: last year when they lost that game in overtime. Then 2078 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,400 Speaker 3: Shanahan had lost twice to this guy in a Super Bowl. 2079 01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:37,360 Speaker 3: And if Sirianni is able to avoid that and actually 2080 01:37:37,400 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 3: pull it off, I'm not saying people are going to 2081 01:37:39,200 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 3: suggest that Sirianni is better than Kyle Shanahan, but I 2082 01:37:42,479 --> 01:37:44,920 Speaker 3: think the narrative then switches to it might be time 2083 01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:47,080 Speaker 3: to put some respect on this guy's name, and whether 2084 01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:49,120 Speaker 3: or not you agree with it or not is irrelevant. 2085 01:37:49,200 --> 01:37:51,519 Speaker 3: I think that becomes the storyline. I think it a 2086 01:37:51,520 --> 01:37:54,920 Speaker 3: lot of it will will default to the players. It'll 2087 01:37:54,960 --> 01:37:59,040 Speaker 3: default to Barkley, it'll default to the defense, the offensive line, 2088 01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:02,320 Speaker 3: various player on the field. But I think that Sirianni 2089 01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:06,840 Speaker 3: is probably gonna get a second look from people that 2090 01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:09,479 Speaker 3: maybe had kind of counted him out mid season. 2091 01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that. To me, I think he's already 2092 01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:15,760 Speaker 2: kind of gotten there. 2093 01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 7: Now. 2094 01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,280 Speaker 2: Listen, I think if they get blown out or embarrassed 2095 01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:21,400 Speaker 2: and it becomes a discourse on Nick Sirianni. You know, 2096 01:38:21,439 --> 01:38:25,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like at this point, second 2097 01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:27,519 Speaker 2: super Bowl in three years, four years overall as a 2098 01:38:27,560 --> 01:38:31,080 Speaker 2: head coach, like it's a pretty solid run all four 2099 01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:34,240 Speaker 2: years you make the postseason, I feel like the narrative 2100 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:35,400 Speaker 2: has kind of flipped on him. 2101 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:36,240 Speaker 4: The last guy. 2102 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:38,479 Speaker 2: I do want to ask you about Jalen Hurts because 2103 01:38:39,280 --> 01:38:43,080 Speaker 2: this one has been to me. I feel a little weird, 2104 01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:45,000 Speaker 2: like because I've seen a lot of the well, how 2105 01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:47,439 Speaker 2: do we look at Jalen Hurts if he ends up 2106 01:38:47,720 --> 01:38:51,920 Speaker 2: winning on Sunday? And it's like, maybe I'm crazy. I 2107 01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:53,639 Speaker 2: don't really think I'm gonna look at him much different. 2108 01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:56,479 Speaker 2: I mean, I think, certainly he could have an incredible game, 2109 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:59,080 Speaker 2: but even if he has an incredible game, like, I 2110 01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:01,960 Speaker 2: don't know that I'm putting him in the Lamar Jackson, 2111 01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:07,920 Speaker 2: Josh Allen, Patrick, Mahomes, whoever.

And so I like him, 2112 01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:09,920 Speaker 2: you know, I think he obviously, like a lot of 2113 01:39:09,920 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 2: great quarterbacks, benefits from the talent around him. But I 2114 01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:14,439 Speaker 2: have seen that one a lot, Like, how does it 2115 01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 2: change the conversation about Jalen hurts, like, to me, I 2116 01:39:17,439 --> 01:39:21,400 Speaker 2: really don't know that it does, but but yeah, I could. 2117 01:39:21,479 --> 01:39:25,520 Speaker 2: I think it will be a talking point if Philadelphia wins. 2118 01:39:25,800 --> 01:39:27,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I definitely think so too. I think 2119 01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:32,439 Speaker 3: the one thing that we can't do is if he loses, 2120 01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:34,920 Speaker 3: can't be like, well, he can't be the guy. It's like, well, 2121 01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:37,280 Speaker 3: then Josh Allen can't be the guy. Sure, and Lamar 2122 01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:39,960 Speaker 3: Jackson can't be the guy. Nobody can be the guy 2123 01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:42,280 Speaker 3: outside of maybe Burrow. I think it's really interesting when 2124 01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:46,120 Speaker 3: you think about Burrow, for example, because what would Burrow 2125 01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:49,320 Speaker 3: be seen as if he had not made that Super 2126 01:39:49,320 --> 01:39:53,360 Speaker 3: Bowl gall if they had not beaten the Chiefs in 2127 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:56,320 Speaker 3: that game and gotten there. How would he be viewed? 2128 01:39:56,320 --> 01:39:58,719 Speaker 3: Because I think that every time we think about Burrow, 2129 01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:01,160 Speaker 3: as great as he is, listen, and I'm not here 2130 01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:03,400 Speaker 3: to throw shade on him at all. I think he's phenomenal, 2131 01:40:03,439 --> 01:40:05,519 Speaker 3: but I also think that in the back of our 2132 01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 3: minds we view him just a little bit differently, maybe 2133 01:40:09,160 --> 01:40:12,760 Speaker 3: on just a slightly higher pedestal, or we give him 2134 01:40:12,760 --> 01:40:14,400 Speaker 3: a little bit more of the benefit of the doubt, 2135 01:40:14,840 --> 01:40:18,440 Speaker 3: because that dude actually beat Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs, 2136 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:22,200 Speaker 3: that dude stopped the Kansas City Chiefs from making it 2137 01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:26,320 Speaker 3: to the Super Bowl. That right there, I think that's 2138 01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:28,200 Speaker 3: what it is for Jalen Hurts. Like, if he's able 2139 01:40:28,240 --> 01:40:31,360 Speaker 3: to actually beat this guy, then he becomes one of 2140 01:40:31,400 --> 01:40:33,640 Speaker 3: a very select few that has ever been able to 2141 01:40:33,640 --> 01:40:36,519 Speaker 3: do that, especially in the playoffs. I mean, you've had 2142 01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:39,040 Speaker 3: Tom Brady do it, You've had Joe Burrow do it. 2143 01:40:39,360 --> 01:40:42,559 Speaker 3: You will have had then Jalen Hurts do it. And 2144 01:40:42,600 --> 01:40:44,600 Speaker 3: I do think there's something that comes with that. The 2145 01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:46,680 Speaker 3: other thing, of course, is I mean, how much of 2146 01:40:46,720 --> 01:40:48,439 Speaker 3: it is going to be Hurts and how much of 2147 01:40:48,479 --> 01:40:50,479 Speaker 3: it is going to be other people. And that's not 2148 01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:53,479 Speaker 3: to say that it couldn't very much be Hurts, but 2149 01:40:53,520 --> 01:40:55,679 Speaker 3: I think that the narrative on Hurts will be determined 2150 01:40:55,680 --> 01:40:58,559 Speaker 3: by how he plays, not even just that they win. 2151 01:40:59,040 --> 01:41:01,400 Speaker 3: You can win in spite of your quarterback. My Broncos 2152 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:05,080 Speaker 3: largely won in spite of Peyton Manning because of the 2153 01:41:05,120 --> 01:41:07,479 Speaker 3: defense and things like that. And the Eagles are built 2154 01:41:07,520 --> 01:41:10,360 Speaker 3: to win even if Hurtz doesn't throw for one hundred 2155 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:13,120 Speaker 3: and fifty yards in this game because of Barkley, the 2156 01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:15,479 Speaker 3: home run nature of the way he runs the football, 2157 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:18,080 Speaker 3: that offensive line being able to control the clock, and 2158 01:41:18,120 --> 01:41:22,320 Speaker 3: then a defense that has just been ballhawkish all year. 2159 01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:25,680 Speaker 2: Tell you what, I have two more hypotheticals on what 2160 01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 2: could happen depending on the result, What should happen, What 2161 01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:33,200 Speaker 2: the conversations will be on Sunday into Monday. We'll get 2162 01:41:33,240 --> 01:41:35,639 Speaker 2: to those next, But for the final time this evening, 2163 01:41:36,080 --> 01:41:37,960 Speaker 2: let's get it over the news desk Steve de Sega. 2164 01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:38,599 Speaker 4: What is trending? 2165 01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 9: Of course, the Super Bowl is in New Orleans tomorrow 2166 01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:44,160 Speaker 9: Eagles and Chiefs on Fox TV.

Throw in 2263 01:46:35,360 --> 01:46:37,800 Speaker 9: some more of these trivia items that we sometimes bring 2264 01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:40,479 Speaker 9: up on this show, and I'm sure we'll have more 2265 01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:44,720 Speaker 9: to throw out because once we get a final, you know, 2266 01:46:44,880 --> 01:46:48,280 Speaker 9: inevitably more trivia items come across. Well, we talked about 2267 01:46:48,280 --> 01:46:51,479 Speaker 9: this last hour. What's amazing to me is if we 2268 01:46:51,560 --> 01:46:53,639 Speaker 9: get a close game in the fourth quarter and if 2269 01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:56,720 Speaker 9: Kansas City does not win, sure, in that situation, that 2270 01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:58,400 Speaker 9: would be the definition of news. 2271 01:46:58,760 --> 01:47:00,880 Speaker 2: That would be the definition news. All right to Saga, Well, 2272 01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:02,640 Speaker 2: thank you very much, have a great evening, and we 2273 01:47:02,680 --> 01:47:06,759 Speaker 2: will speak with you on Sunday afternoon and Sunday evening. 2274 01:47:07,040 --> 01:47:09,599 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Er towards Jason Martin broadcasting live from 2275 01:47:09,640 --> 01:47:11,880 Speaker 2: the Tireck dot Com studios. Okay, so before we got 2276 01:47:11,920 --> 01:47:14,400 Speaker 2: to Sager Jamart, we were talking about all different hypotheticals. 2277 01:47:14,600 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 2: What do we think of Nick Sirianni if they win, 2278 01:47:16,600 --> 01:47:18,360 Speaker 2: if Philly wins, what do we think of Jalen Hurts. 2279 01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:19,840 Speaker 4: I want to kind of go the opposite direction. 2280 01:47:20,479 --> 01:47:22,559 Speaker 2: I want to play Devil's a oh well, not Devil's advocate, 2281 01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:26,120 Speaker 2: but I want to ask a question that maybe seems 2282 01:47:26,160 --> 01:47:29,679 Speaker 2: stupid and maybe is stupid. You know, I'm never willing 2283 01:47:29,720 --> 01:47:32,880 Speaker 2: to not admit that maybe something I say set up 2284 01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:36,679 Speaker 2: by you right now to say something really dumb. America 2285 01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:39,599 Speaker 2: is on the edge of its seat. So Friday night, 2286 01:47:40,320 --> 01:47:44,080 Speaker 2: I first saw this via People dot Com. That's People Magazine, 2287 01:47:44,439 --> 01:47:45,840 Speaker 2: their website. 2288 01:47:45,720 --> 01:47:47,479 Speaker 3: That's where I go for my sports coverage. 2289 01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:49,320 Speaker 2: Well, a lot you can you could get to imagine 2290 01:47:49,320 --> 01:47:53,759 Speaker 2: where this is going Double Date New Orleans, Patrick Mahomes, 2291 01:47:53,800 --> 01:48:01,360 Speaker 2: Travis Kelce, Britney Mahomes, Taylor Swift. Obviously nobody cares, you know, well, 2292 01:48:01,360 --> 01:48:03,280 Speaker 2: I mean somebody cares because it's in People magazine. But 2293 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:06,320 Speaker 2: does it become a story if the Chiefs win? 2294 01:48:07,640 --> 01:48:08,200 Speaker 4: Counter to that? 2295 01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:11,640 Speaker 2: Do you think it will become a story if the 2296 01:48:11,720 --> 01:48:15,479 Speaker 2: Chiefs lose. In other words, like forty eight hours before 2297 01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:18,400 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. Yes, we understand that wives and kids 2298 01:48:18,400 --> 01:48:21,240 Speaker 2: are in town, and I totally get that, but it 2299 01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:24,280 Speaker 2: would be kind of interesting just publicly out there having 2300 01:48:24,280 --> 01:48:27,599 Speaker 2: the time of their lives. Do you envision it being 2301 01:48:27,640 --> 01:48:29,759 Speaker 2: a big deal if the Chiefs lose? 2302 01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:30,920 Speaker 4: Well? 2303 01:48:31,479 --> 01:48:35,120 Speaker 3: Maybe stumped you? Yeah, Well I was thinking about it 2304 01:48:35,120 --> 01:48:40,200 Speaker 3: because I'll say, remember the boat trip that the Giant yeah, odell, Yeah, yeah, 2305 01:48:40,640 --> 01:48:44,360 Speaker 3: that was a story sure here because of the tailor 2306 01:48:44,439 --> 01:48:47,200 Speaker 3: swift of it all. Yes, I think it does become 2307 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:50,400 Speaker 3: a story. I think that it becomes a very like 2308 01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:53,160 Speaker 3: piece of low hanging fruit to try and explain away. 2309 01:48:54,240 --> 01:48:56,439 Speaker 3: Maybe the Chiefs weren't quite as dialed in as they 2310 01:48:56,479 --> 01:48:58,960 Speaker 3: needed to be in this game, you know, the stories 2311 01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:01,719 Speaker 3: of the Philadelphia Eagles and other like I can see 2312 01:49:01,920 --> 01:49:05,400 Speaker 3: those takes coming. So yes, I think it's a story. 2313 01:49:05,560 --> 01:49:07,960 Speaker 3: Do I think it's like a story for everybody that 2314 01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:11,400 Speaker 3: covers the game. No, but I definitely know people in 2315 01:49:11,720 --> 01:49:15,559 Speaker 3: our industry that will for sure go down that pathway 2316 01:49:15,600 --> 01:49:16,679 Speaker 3: if they lose. Yeah. 2317 01:49:16,720 --> 01:49:18,080 Speaker 2: You know, let me ask you before we get to 2318 01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:22,240 Speaker 2: the final hypothetical. To me, I do feel like it's 2319 01:49:22,280 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 2: a little bit metaphorical. I know, we had Dan Byron 2320 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 2: who said, you know, probably whatever percentage he said, you 2321 01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:32,240 Speaker 2: know a lot of people like Philly, but a lot 2322 01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:35,519 Speaker 2: of them are also saying, can't bet against Mahomes and Kelsey. 2323 01:49:36,280 --> 01:49:39,679 Speaker 2: But the fact that they did have that very public 2324 01:49:39,680 --> 01:49:41,760 Speaker 2: dinner and again they're certainly allowed to hang out with 2325 01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:44,000 Speaker 2: their wives and girlfriends at the Super Bowl. I get it. 2326 01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:46,920 Speaker 4: I kind of get the sense. 2327 01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:50,040 Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of people are kind of 2328 01:49:50,120 --> 01:49:52,880 Speaker 2: just it's that it's already set in stone that the 2329 01:49:52,960 --> 01:49:54,800 Speaker 2: Chiefs are gonna win. I know, you know, like you said, 2330 01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:56,800 Speaker 2: you haven't consumed a lot of what people are picking 2331 01:49:56,800 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 2: in the game. But you know, I'm seeing a lot 2332 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:02,280 Speaker 2: of media cover ridge of you know, yeah, if, if, 2333 01:50:02,320 --> 01:50:05,000 Speaker 2: and when you know, this three peat becomes official or 2334 01:50:05,160 --> 01:50:06,960 Speaker 2: what you know, what Dan Byer said, can't bet against 2335 01:50:06,960 --> 01:50:08,000 Speaker 2: the Chiefs. 2336 01:50:08,360 --> 01:50:09,400 Speaker 4: It just feel you know. 2337 01:50:09,479 --> 01:50:11,479 Speaker 2: And then the other thing are the reports, And I 2338 01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:14,800 Speaker 2: know Dan Byer debunked this a little bit, but that 2339 01:50:14,880 --> 01:50:17,439 Speaker 2: the overwhelming presence this weekend on Bourbon Street has been 2340 01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:18,960 Speaker 2: of Philadelphia Eagles fans. 2341 01:50:19,880 --> 01:50:21,320 Speaker 4: I just feel like there's. 2342 01:50:21,120 --> 01:50:26,120 Speaker 2: A little bit of foregone inevitability. The Chiefs are gonna win. 2343 01:50:26,720 --> 01:50:29,280 Speaker 2: They always do. They always, to the Sager's point, win 2344 01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:30,880 Speaker 2: the close ones. I don't know. I just feel like 2345 01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:35,240 Speaker 2: it's feeling like the narrative feels like it's inevitable, even 2346 01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:36,519 Speaker 2: though I think it's a far thing from it. 2347 01:50:36,600 --> 01:50:37,720 Speaker 4: Do you get that vibe at all or no. 2348 01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:40,720 Speaker 3: I don't know about the inevitability portion of it, but 2349 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:45,759 Speaker 3: I do think that we have gotten to a point 2350 01:50:45,840 --> 01:50:51,240 Speaker 3: where it feels insane to pull or to pick against 2351 01:50:52,280 --> 01:50:56,240 Speaker 3: that quarterback and that coach as a unit together, and 2352 01:50:56,400 --> 01:50:59,680 Speaker 3: a lot of times Spagnolo doesn't get talked about, and 2353 01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:02,160 Speaker 3: then he ends up coming up with two or three 2354 01:51:02,760 --> 01:51:07,120 Speaker 3: play calls defensively that change a game entirely. We saw 2355 01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:10,759 Speaker 3: that in Buffalo with the crazy play where Kincaid almost 2356 01:51:10,800 --> 01:51:13,600 Speaker 3: made the catch that he probably shouldn't have made, just 2357 01:51:13,640 --> 01:51:15,679 Speaker 3: because there's no reason for that ball to have even 2358 01:51:15,720 --> 01:51:18,439 Speaker 3: gotten there, but somehow, Alan, because of this superhuman strength, 2359 01:51:18,479 --> 01:51:22,479 Speaker 3: got it there. I think that's I think that's why. 2360 01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:24,920 Speaker 3: I just think that because it's Mahomes, it's just like 2361 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:27,439 Speaker 3: he's gonna find a way. I don't know that that 2362 01:51:27,680 --> 01:51:32,280 Speaker 3: is always true. The history of the past doesn't really 2363 01:51:32,680 --> 01:51:36,240 Speaker 3: impact the future. I mean, it doesn't like if it happens, 2364 01:51:36,280 --> 01:51:38,439 Speaker 3: it's like, wow, this is what he always does. But 2365 01:51:38,760 --> 01:51:40,960 Speaker 3: those are all individual things that happened in the past. 2366 01:51:41,040 --> 01:51:43,639 Speaker 3: He has not done that against this group of guys. 2367 01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:47,240 Speaker 3: So at the same time, what was the thing that 2368 01:51:47,320 --> 01:51:49,479 Speaker 3: I told you at the beginning of the season when 2369 01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:51,840 Speaker 3: I picked the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl beating 2370 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,120 Speaker 3: the Green Bay Packers, I said, I will not be 2371 01:51:54,200 --> 01:51:56,600 Speaker 3: dumb enough to pick against that guy again. So you 2372 01:51:56,640 --> 01:52:00,960 Speaker 3: can add me to the list. He has done so 2373 01:52:01,240 --> 01:52:07,599 Speaker 3: much to create this aura that somehow, some way, fifteen 2374 01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:10,360 Speaker 3: is going to get the job done, somehow, some way, 2375 01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:12,479 Speaker 3: they'll end up with the ball at the end, and 2376 01:52:12,520 --> 01:52:14,759 Speaker 3: they'll have a chance to win it even if they're behind, 2377 01:52:15,240 --> 01:52:17,920 Speaker 3: and he won't mess it up because he just doesn't, 2378 01:52:18,040 --> 01:52:20,439 Speaker 3: and they'll have the right play call, everything will be 2379 01:52:20,439 --> 01:52:24,320 Speaker 3: blocked perfectly, and the stars will align and they'll win. So, 2380 01:52:24,360 --> 01:52:26,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I think that that's kind of the way 2381 01:52:26,720 --> 01:52:30,720 Speaker 3: that it's perceived. But I don't think. I don't know. 2382 01:52:30,760 --> 01:52:32,599 Speaker 3: I just I think that it's hard to say that 2383 01:52:32,720 --> 01:52:36,120 Speaker 3: considering I also think most people believe Philadelphia is the 2384 01:52:36,120 --> 01:52:40,240 Speaker 3: better football team, and so those two things don't work. 2385 01:52:40,280 --> 01:52:41,960 Speaker 3: One of those two things is going to prove out 2386 01:52:42,439 --> 01:52:45,479 Speaker 3: not to be accurate on this specific Sunday, Mahomes Magic 2387 01:52:45,560 --> 01:52:50,400 Speaker 3: runs out, or the Eagles are actually somehow out schemed defensively, 2388 01:52:51,200 --> 01:52:54,720 Speaker 3: somehow Spagnoloa is able to slow down Barkley, or there's 2389 01:52:54,760 --> 01:52:57,040 Speaker 3: a couple of freak turnovers or something like that. So 2390 01:52:57,920 --> 01:53:00,840 Speaker 3: that's why the games are played, because sometimes it just 2391 01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:02,840 Speaker 3: doesn't work out the way it's supposed to be on paper. 2392 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:05,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what. That's a perfect segue into 2393 01:53:05,320 --> 01:53:09,840 Speaker 2: our final segment of the show, super Bowl Picks. Torres 2394 01:53:09,880 --> 01:53:13,240 Speaker 2: Martin make our final decisions. We'll discuss those next Fox 2395 01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:19,920 Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

Mary, 2411 01:54:04,280 --> 01:54:08,240 Speaker 2: give us some music, put us in the moon. J Mart, 2412 01:54:08,760 --> 01:54:11,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you the floor. What is your twenty 2413 01:54:11,520 --> 01:54:13,360 Speaker 2: twenty five Super Bowl bink? 2414 01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:19,479 Speaker 3: What did I pick before the season? Jeers? I picked 2415 01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:22,240 Speaker 3: the Chiefs before the season. Okay, the question I asked 2416 01:54:22,280 --> 01:54:25,479 Speaker 3: off the top of this show. Can the Philadelphia Eagles 2417 01:54:25,600 --> 01:54:30,599 Speaker 3: be the Tampa Bay Bucks team that just terrorized Patrick 2418 01:54:30,600 --> 01:54:33,880 Speaker 3: Mahomes in a Super Bowl and just made his life 2419 01:54:34,040 --> 01:54:38,120 Speaker 3: miserable running left and right, not being able to complete 2420 01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:40,280 Speaker 3: pass This that was a thirty one to nine beat down. 2421 01:54:40,360 --> 01:54:43,520 Speaker 3: That was an unwatchable football game. They did not have 2422 01:54:43,600 --> 01:54:47,040 Speaker 3: a backway say Kwon Barklay. They had Leonard Fournette who 2423 01:54:47,040 --> 01:54:48,800 Speaker 3: had a decent game, and of course they had maybe 2424 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:53,400 Speaker 3: the greatest quarterback of all time in Tom Brady. In 2425 01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:56,400 Speaker 3: that ball game as well, and they had weapons. And 2426 01:54:56,440 --> 01:54:59,320 Speaker 3: the Eagles have weapons, and they have Saquon Barkley, and 2427 01:54:59,320 --> 01:55:02,160 Speaker 3: they've got an credible offensive line, and they've got the 2428 01:55:02,160 --> 01:55:05,000 Speaker 3: best defense in the league. And I picked the Chiefs 2429 01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:07,880 Speaker 3: before the season because Patrick Mahomes is that special. When 2430 01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:11,680 Speaker 3: you just can't beat Patrick Mahomes in January and you 2431 01:55:11,960 --> 01:55:15,000 Speaker 3: can't beat them in February either, so many people have tried. 2432 01:55:15,920 --> 01:55:20,760 Speaker 3: I think they I'm taking Philadelphia. 2433 01:55:21,080 --> 01:55:25,520 Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's a bigger upside than if Philly actually wins. 2434 01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:29,360 Speaker 3: I picked Kansas City before the season, and I'm doing 2435 01:55:29,400 --> 01:55:31,480 Speaker 3: the thing I said I would not do. I said 2436 01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:35,640 Speaker 3: I would never pick against Patrick Mahomes again. But I 2437 01:55:35,800 --> 01:55:37,840 Speaker 3: do think Philadelphia is Tampa Bay. 2438 01:55:38,640 --> 01:55:41,480 Speaker 2: Before we get to my pick, here is what Fox 2439 01:55:41,520 --> 01:55:45,600 Speaker 2: Sports Radio Philadelphia host Sean Brace said earlier in our show. 2440 01:55:46,000 --> 01:55:48,080 Speaker 6: I think the Birds show forty plus. 2441 01:55:48,120 --> 01:55:51,080 Speaker 7: I think they smack them. They're a better football team. 2442 01:55:51,400 --> 01:55:54,960 Speaker 7: They're gonna show it tomorrow. I'll say forty one twenty 2443 01:55:55,080 --> 01:55:56,520 Speaker 7: seven Birds on top. 2444 01:55:56,560 --> 01:55:59,560 Speaker 4: Wow, thank you browsing In for pulling that clip. 2445 01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:01,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if the Birds are putting up forty one, 2446 01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 2: but Jay mart I'm doing it. 2447 01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:04,200 Speaker 3: Too. 2448 01:56:05,080 --> 01:56:06,080 Speaker 4: I'm taking the Eagles. 2449 01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:08,240 Speaker 2: And listen, it's funny because you mentioned, you know, be 2450 01:56:08,440 --> 01:56:10,800 Speaker 2: picking against Patrick Mahomes. You and I did the postgame 2451 01:56:10,840 --> 01:56:14,120 Speaker 2: show on Fox Sports Radio last year and we basically said, 2452 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:17,280 Speaker 2: you can't pick against the Phil the Kansas City Chiefs 2453 01:56:17,280 --> 01:56:18,240 Speaker 2: at this point, you just can't. 2454 01:56:18,280 --> 01:56:20,680 Speaker 4: There's no reason to. But I'm doing it as well. 2455 01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:25,240 Speaker 4: I just think, maybe, let me put it this way, 2456 01:56:25,600 --> 01:56:26,120 Speaker 4: I think that. 2457 01:56:26,160 --> 01:56:29,360 Speaker 2: You can argue certainly that whatever whatever, I think, there's 2458 01:56:29,440 --> 01:56:32,720 Speaker 2: this vibe in the air that it's inevitable. Eagles fans 2459 01:56:32,720 --> 01:56:35,120 Speaker 2: have taken over Bourbon Street. I know Dan Byer said 2460 01:56:35,120 --> 01:56:37,400 Speaker 2: it's a little closer to fifty to fifty than been reported. 2461 01:56:37,760 --> 01:56:39,800 Speaker 2: But I think they're down there. I think they're ready 2462 01:56:39,840 --> 01:56:43,280 Speaker 2: to win. I think the team is unafraid of Kansas City, 2463 01:56:43,680 --> 01:56:45,640 Speaker 2: and I just go back to what we've talked about 2464 01:56:45,680 --> 01:56:50,040 Speaker 2: for two weeks is they're better at potentially every position 2465 01:56:50,160 --> 01:56:51,040 Speaker 2: except for quarterback. 2466 01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:53,080 Speaker 4: Now that's obviously there was a board play spot on 2467 01:56:53,120 --> 01:56:53,840 Speaker 4: the field. 2468 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:55,760 Speaker 2: And Andy Reid is a Hall of Famer and Nick 2469 01:56:55,800 --> 01:56:58,720 Speaker 2: Sirianni to this point certainly is not. But I just 2470 01:56:58,760 --> 01:57:02,040 Speaker 2: think better team think it's their time, and I'm with you, 2471 01:57:02,080 --> 01:57:03,440 Speaker 2: I think Philadelphia wins this game. 2472 01:57:03,480 --> 01:57:04,040 Speaker 4: I really do. 2473 01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:08,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. Like I said, we could both be idiots and 2474 01:57:08,400 --> 01:57:10,880 Speaker 3: picking against Patrick Mahomes is the dumbest thing that you 2475 01:57:10,880 --> 01:57:13,560 Speaker 3: can do, maybe in all of sports right now. But 2476 01:57:14,600 --> 01:57:16,680 Speaker 3: I agree with Sean Brace. I think that the Eagles 2477 01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:19,960 Speaker 3: are clearly the better football team, and I think that 2478 01:57:20,080 --> 01:57:23,080 Speaker 3: what they bring to this is the key that he said. 2479 01:57:23,120 --> 01:57:25,840 Speaker 3: And I appreciate him for saying this because we have 2480 01:57:26,080 --> 01:57:28,920 Speaker 3: dogged out other teams for doing the opposite of this. 2481 01:57:29,280 --> 01:57:31,840 Speaker 3: He said, they're going to stand fast and they're gonna 2482 01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:35,040 Speaker 3: stay with what brought them there. If they get away 2483 01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:39,360 Speaker 3: from Sakuon Barkley, they're gonna lose. But if they are 2484 01:57:40,600 --> 01:57:43,160 Speaker 3: vigilant and keeping the ball in his hands, even if 2485 01:57:43,160 --> 01:57:45,640 Speaker 3: he struggles early, if they just keep on pounding it, 2486 01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:47,680 Speaker 3: I think they're going to get the job done. And 2487 01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:51,160 Speaker 3: him saying that gave me confidence. I believe that that's 2488 01:57:51,160 --> 01:57:53,680 Speaker 3: exactly what's going to happen. I think sa Kuon Barkley 2489 01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:55,480 Speaker 3: is likely to be the MVP of this game. 2490 01:57:56,240 --> 01:57:58,000 Speaker 2: And I think the other thing for me, I just 2491 01:57:58,240 --> 01:57:59,760 Speaker 2: and I know it's easy to say, I don't think 2492 01:57:59,760 --> 01:58:02,919 Speaker 2: they're I don't know why Sirianni is a little crazy, 2493 01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:05,280 Speaker 2: but I think that's a good thing when you're facing 2494 01:58:05,400 --> 01:58:08,720 Speaker 2: an all time great and coaching quarterback. I don't think 2495 01:58:08,760 --> 01:58:10,560 Speaker 2: Philly is afraid, and I just go back. I know 2496 01:58:10,560 --> 01:58:12,280 Speaker 2: we've said it three times just in this segment, but 2497 01:58:12,600 --> 01:58:15,680 Speaker 2: they're better at virtually every position. And the other thing too. 2498 01:58:16,480 --> 01:58:19,480 Speaker 2: Philly or Casey has not faced a defense like what 2499 01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:21,920 Speaker 2: they're going to see in Philadelphia as well. Not saying 2500 01:58:21,920 --> 01:58:24,560 Speaker 2: that Patrick Mahomes can't handle it, but I have the Eagles. 2501 01:58:25,240 --> 01:58:27,560 Speaker 2: J mart has the Eagles, and yes, Sean Brace has 2502 01:58:27,600 --> 01:58:30,440 Speaker 2: the Eagles.
