There 11 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 2: are a lot of people demanding a refund for their 12 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: money today, by the thousands they signed up for this app. 13 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: Chiefs up twenty six to seven with five minutes to go. 14 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: I don't want to say this game's been a total snoozer, 15 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: because listen, we love sports. We're grateful to do what 16 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: we do. Let's just say we won't be telling our 17 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: grandchildren about super wild cards Saturday, Chiefs Dolphins in a 18 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: negative ten degree weather? First off, how you doing? Second 19 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: of all, not a lot to react to in this game, 20 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 2: but how are you. 21 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: Jason I'm fine. Yes, the game. I sent that text 22 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: to you a couple of months ago. It was just like, man, 23 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: this game is a boring watch, and it is to 24 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: those who spent six dollars on Peacock, hang on to it. 25 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: You get the Royal Rumble free in a couple of weeks. 26 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so enjoy that stone cold Steve Austin. Is 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: he like still favored over there or what's the deal there? 28 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: No? I can't even continue this conversation. No, he is not. 29 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: He might be a part of the festivities, but he 30 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: will know. No. Well, Ian John is kind of the 31 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,639 Speaker 1: rock is kind of teasing a little something right now. 32 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: Hogan, he is he? 33 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: No? 34 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 2: What match is he in? 35 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 3: Oh? 36 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 2: Sorry, okay, okay, he. 37 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: Is not in a match. It would be more interesting 38 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: to watch him right and down, even at his age, 39 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: than watching It's just it's a man. You want to talk. 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: Take the wind out of the sales of a game 41 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: that could have been this high flying, fun offensive game. 42 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: Put it in these temperatures because it's just it feels 43 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: like everybody's moving slow. They're moving carefully because the ground 44 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: isn't I mean, it's rock hard, but it's also covered 45 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: in Frost and all of these things, and just everything 46 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: about this from the outset has been bad, and it 47 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 1: hasn't helped that the television broadcast is not really live 48 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: and up the live and up things in the booth either. 49 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: With all due respect to Jason Garrett, who seems like 50 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: a really nice man, and I think based on the 51 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: way he was treated in Dallas, he clearly was because 52 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: he was there longer than maybe he should have been, 53 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: because he was such a nice guy. And I don't 54 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: necessarily think his insight is wrong, but the charisma is 55 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: like a negative. He would be like a negative six 56 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: on a D and D dice right now in terms 57 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: of his charisma stat it is not good. Like it's 58 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: just it's told to listen to. And when you add 59 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: to it the circumstances of this game, somehow, the first 60 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: game was more compelling in the fourth quarter than this 61 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: thing has been pretty much since about five minutes left 62 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: in the first quarter. And that thing was a blowout 63 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: early this afternoon. 64 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 2: All right, So I got a lot of takes to 65 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 2: everything that you just said, and I want to start 66 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: by saying this, I had this thought while I was 67 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: actually watching this game. And by the way, you know, 68 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 2: you're competing for a championship. Whatever. I don't want to 69 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: hear the excuses, but what I will say, I was 70 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: watching this as I was thinking about this. As I 71 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: was watching this, we all revere cold weather football, snow 72 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: ice conditions, ice bowl negative this. You know, you pour 73 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: out a sip of water and it's ice before it 74 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: hits your lips. While I was watching this game, I 75 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: was thinking, I think I've come to accept cold weather 76 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: football is actually better to talk about then it generally 77 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: actually is when the game gets played. Does that feel 78 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: like hyperbole to you? Does that feel like an overstatement 79 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: on your part? I'm not at all. 80 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: That is that is a million percent right. That is 81 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: like it's always better in theory the big like right 82 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: now we're preparing for a giant winter storm here. Some 83 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: people already have it clearly because if you saw the 84 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: shots in Buffalo, but you know we're maybe gonna get 85 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: six inches of snow or something like that. Everybody's acting 86 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: like the world's about to end here. It's always really cool, 87 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: like I can't wait for my daughter to experience the 88 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: first snow. But then you know, you can't travel in 89 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: this part of the country when that happens, it's always 90 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: more fun in theory. It's the same thing as the 91 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: Cinderella in the NCAA tournament making it to the final four, 92 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: and then you're like, well, wait a second, now I've 93 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: got to watch this like that. It doesn't it always 94 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: sounds better than it is, Like, yes, it's cool to 95 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: play it in Madden, it's not as cool to watch 96 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: something like this tonight, Like it's actually kind of a 97 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: novelty for five or ten minutes, and if you're in 98 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: a blizzard, actually like watching snow games, but it's not 99 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: like these are riveting, dramatic will played, high flying games. 100 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: It changes everything about football. It's hard to take anything 101 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: away and like bury Miami and the ground for this 102 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: because it's just such an abnormal circumstance. 103 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because that was going to be kind 104 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: of my next stakeaway is you know, one thing about 105 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: not just me, I think a lot of us that 106 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: have gotten to this level, is I think that you know, 107 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: sometimes narratives form, and I'm always somebody that naturally pushes 108 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: back on things like is this really the way it 109 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 2: seems because everybody's saying it, or is everybody does just 110 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 2: one person have the same opinion. 111 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: Whatever. 112 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: I bring that up because I was very curious to 113 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: see the Dolphins this week. All we heard all week 114 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: cold a warm weather team coming north too, was record 115 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 2: against two, was record under forty degrees. And you just 116 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: go on and on down the stat lines and the 117 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 2: talking points into this and the that, and it was 118 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: just because you know, I thought that, Listen, I thought 119 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 2: they rightfully should have been an underdog. You know, they've 120 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 2: been struggling of late. You know that that Bill's loss 121 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: last week really wasn't as close as the final score indicated. 122 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 2: The week before they got destroyed by Baltimore. They have 123 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 2: some injury issues, But all week long I kind of 124 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: sat there and said, like, maybe there's something, Maybe we're 125 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: over selling it. They run the ball pretty well. Can 126 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 2: you get guys the ball in space? Blah blah blah 127 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: blah blah. But I will say the second that we 128 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 2: got the opening shots of Tua, of Mike McDaniel, of Tyree, 129 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: like right away, it was like, oh no, that narrative 130 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 2: all week long about Miami and cold weather, that is 131 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 2: a thousand percent Did you notice that as well? 132 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: Go ahead, go absolutely When they were showing people walking 133 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: into the stadium. They always have those shots of guys 134 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: and you catch what they're wearing and all this, And 135 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: of course Taylor Swift in a Travis Kelsey jacket was 136 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: like the first thing they showed or the top of 137 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: ESPN dot com, before you've even got to the scores 138 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: of the playoff games. That was the lead headline. So 139 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: great job. Yeah, they showed a shot of Tua and 140 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: he just didn't look comfortable already. And Mike McDaniel in 141 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: particular looked incredibly uncomfortable from the outset, and they were 142 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: talking to him at halftime, and I actually thought he 143 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: might blow away, Like I thought he was gonna shatter 144 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: into a bunch of pieces, like mister Freeze hit him 145 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: with a ray and knocked him out. The best thing 146 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: about this entire football game, I dare you to disagree 147 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: with this is Andy Reid's mustache. Oh yeah, I shot 148 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: in the second quarter. We will never ever see a 149 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: day where that is not used. If that thing's not 150 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: memed already, it will be very very soon. That's the 151 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: only thing about this game that I am going to remember. 152 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna remember Kelsey's drops. I'm not going to 153 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: remember anything that Miami did offensively. I'm gonna remember Andy 154 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: Reid's mustache. That's literally it. 155 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: For people who have not seen the pictures. If you're 156 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: driving around, if you're at work, Andy Reid's mustache very 157 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: much was frozen. You could see water droplets frozen. And 158 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: Kaylie Hartong, who's doing the sideline reporting, coming out at halftime, 159 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 2: she said she did ask Andy Reid about it, and 160 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 2: she said, yes, he is aware that his mustache is frozen, 161 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: and he knows that there's not much that he can 162 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: do about it. But that was kind of another big 163 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: takeaway that I had. Jason's exactly what you just said 164 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: is from moment when Mike McDaniel too. And it was 165 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 2: interesting because I will say this, so, Jason Garrett is 166 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: not good on a broadcast, and I do think there 167 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 2: is something too. I get that guys have played or 168 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: they've done this, or they've done that. I don't care. 169 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: He is not good on a broadcast, but I bring 170 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: it up because he did, or at least he said 171 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: something that the studio team did reference, which was before 172 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: the game. Jason Garrett, I don't know if he said 173 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: it on the pregame show and I missed it, but 174 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 2: he said that when he was a head coach, he 175 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 2: made it a priority he would never wear the big 176 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: puffy sideline. Jackie said, I don't care if I had 177 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: to layer up under a hoodie whatever he's like, but 178 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 2: I didn't want my team looking at me as though 179 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: I was either cold or weak or this or that. 180 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: And I like, I don't want to be over anal 181 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: by the way they're showing right now in the broadcast 182 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: any Reason Mustache it is both hysterical and kind of 183 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: repulsing at the same time, But like, I don't want 184 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 2: to do like over analyst sports talk radio guy. But 185 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 2: I do think there is something to when your coach, 186 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: very clearly, every time you look at him, very clearly, 187 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 2: looks like he does not want to be there. Yeah, 188 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: I think it does have a trickle down Am I 189 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: being over analyst sport? I wish I could screenshot this 190 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 2: right now? Maybe I'll be able to and put it 191 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: on Twitter. But I just feel like when your own 192 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: coach looks like he doesn't want to be there, I 193 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: do think it has a trickle down effect on your team. 194 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 2: Am I crazy for saying that? Jason? 195 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I I think you want to look miserable 196 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: because your body language matters in those circumstances, like you 197 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: do want to be standing there, like, man, we're going 198 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: to win this football game. I know it's like everybody 199 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: out there knows it's cold, So you don't have to 200 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: oversell it. I don't know that you need to play 201 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: macho either, like there's not really anything to be gained 202 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: either way, but maybe you don't over bundle up. He 203 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: also made a point dig Garrett, and again, like I said, 204 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: some of the points he makes are are pretty good. 205 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: It's just a delivery more than anything else. But he 206 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: was talking about right before they went to the half 207 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: that you know, they would go in in games that 208 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: were super cold, they go in and all the guys 209 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: would get chicken broth and hot coco or something like that, 210 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,719 Speaker 1: everything warm that they could find, but chicken broth was 211 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: almost a constant, and that sometimes it would be hard 212 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: to get the guys to then want to go back 213 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: out on the field because they had warmed back up 214 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: and they were comfortable, and they would get kind of 215 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 1: cozy during that twelve minute break and you'd have to 216 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: get them back out there. And I'm thinking to myself, 217 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: I wonder what coach is out there that's in cold 218 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: weather game that you come in there and they give 219 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 1: you like popsickles, make sure you're still just it's even 220 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: colder in here. You can't wait to get back out 221 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: onto the field, can you imagine? Like for some reason, 222 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: I keep seeing like the chunky soup ad sure Dak 223 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: Prescott in my head right now. It's just like giving 224 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: him soup and then telling him to go back out 225 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: in negative twenty seven weather to play football. Like I 226 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: can understand what Garrett's talking about. You get somebody back 227 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: in and warm them back up, and then say go 228 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: back out there for another hour in that that's kind 229 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: of a shock to your system over and over again. 230 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: But it's very clear, although no one is comfortable, the 231 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins are not made for this. Tua in particular is 232 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: not made for this kind of weather. And Mike McDaniel, 233 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: he doesn't have a lot of padding like Andy Reid's 234 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: probably a little bit warmer sure than is Mike mc 235 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: Mike Mike McDaniel. And the reason I say that and 236 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: can say it kind of with a grin is because 237 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: at my old weigh to three hundred and seventy pounds, 238 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: I was always all hot, like it was hard to 239 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: make me cold. At my you know, lower weight of 240 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 1: one to eighty five, I'm cold all the time, especially 241 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,119 Speaker 1: my hands at my feet. So if you're Mike McDaniel 242 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: and you weigh I don't know, but gotta be what 243 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 1: one's sixty something like that, pretty pretty frail, thin, smaller 244 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: guy and you put him in those temperatures, that's rough. 245 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: Like he he just looks like he needs to get inside, 246 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: Like I'm worried for his health. Every time they show 247 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: him on the sidelines. 248 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 2: He does look miserable. He I do like that he 249 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 2: still has the Miami Vice glasses going even in the 250 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: cold weather. But this one is all but over. We're 251 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: approaching the two minute warning. Chiefs up twenty six to 252 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 2: seven over the Miami Dolphins. As Jason referenced and to 253 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: Sega referenced a moment ago, the the Houston Texans in 254 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: the first game were absolutely dominant against the Cleveland Browns, 255 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: winning that one by a final score of forty five 256 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: to fourteen. 257 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: By the way, you want to know about how exciting 258 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: this game is, think about what we just talked about. 259 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well we did talk about anything about the 260 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: game well, and if there's nothing to say, the Chiefs 261 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: were better. The weather is terrible, it's super cold. Let's 262 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: talk about Andy Reid's mustache and Mike mc Mike mc 263 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: daniel on the sideline and how uncomfortable everybody is. 264 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: Well, and I'll say this too, is like it was 265 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: funny because in the pregame and in like the first 266 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: two or three minutes of the game, I kind of 267 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: felt like the studio team, and you know, listen, they 268 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 2: have the studio team, then they have Dungee and Rodney 269 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 2: Harrison and everybody on the sidelines, and then they of 270 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: course have Tarico and Collinsworth in the booth. And I 271 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: remember watching it and being like, Okay, they're overdoing this. 272 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: We get it. It's cold. Give me some actual football talk. 273 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 2: But I actually think the cold is the story of 274 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 2: the game. And you could debate whether we should be 275 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 2: playing it in this conditions, whether we shouldn't be. Does 276 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 2: cold weather football actually suck as opposed to how much 277 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 2: we talk about it, But I think it's a story 278 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 2: of the game. It's just clear that the Miami Dolphins 279 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: entire season came down to they didn't beat Buffalo, they 280 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: end up in Kansas City, and they did not want 281 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: to be there. And so you know, you know, and listen, 282 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 2: there's great guys and girls on this network all week. 283 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: But it's funny to think about you spend all this 284 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: time breaking down this matchup from every angle. This team's 285 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: pass game against this team's defense, this team's run team 286 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: against this team, says Mike McDaniel versus this, Andy Reid 287 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 2: versus that, And I think it really did just come 288 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 2: down to one team kind of sort of didn't the 289 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: weather didn't bother them, and one team very clearly the 290 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: weather did bother them. Does that that's not like hyperbolic 291 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 2: to say, though, right. 292 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: No, I mean not at all. I mean, yes, you 293 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: can still talk about six starters on defense being out 294 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: and the Bradley Shub injury didn't help things. But yeah, 295 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: I mean that's what it was. I think it was 296 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: sixteen to seven at the half, and if I saw 297 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: it right, I saw an article that basically said that 298 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: the number went from four and a half at kickoff 299 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: to thirteen and a half at halftime. Because everybody knew, 300 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: like watching this, you didn't need to tune into the 301 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: second half with about nine minutes left, I should it 302 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: all off because it was so boring. It's like, this 303 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: is over, this was never a game. This is unfortunate 304 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: because this could have been an awesome matchup regardless of 305 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: where it was played. But this is why home field 306 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: advantage in the playoffs means so much. It's not just 307 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: about the crowd. It's about the atmosphere. Literally the atmosphere. 308 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: It's literally about the temperature and the weather. If this 309 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: was played in Miami, maybe a completely different experience, but 310 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: it wasn't. And as such, I can't even call this 311 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: a dud from Miami. I don't know what this was like. 312 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: This is just this is not reflective of anything you've 313 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: really seen from them all season long. But this is 314 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: the risk that you take when you don't control your 315 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: own destiny and you find a way to have to 316 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: go on the road to cold weather in January. If 317 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: you're not ready for it, you go home quickly. And 318 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: that's what we just saw. 319 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: This game is closing in on a final again. Miami 320 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: is trailing the Kansas City Chiefs for under two minutes 321 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: to go in this one, Kansas City up twenty six 322 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 2: to seven.

By 367 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 2: the way, for people who are not in front of 368 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 2: a TV, the game in Kansas City is final. KSE 369 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 2: wins twenty six to seven. It was as bad as 370 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 2: it sounds it was not a very entertaining game. As 371 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 2: Miami finishes the game, Tua is twenty of thirty nine 372 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 2: passing Miami with two hundred and sixty four yards of 373 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 2: total offense four point five yards per completion for Tua, 374 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 2: and Miami did run the ball a little effectively seventy 375 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 2: six yards rushing four and a half yards per carry. Unfortunately, 376 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,479 Speaker 2: they fell down early and kind of had to abandon 377 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 2: the run. I bring it up, Jason, you know, do 378 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 2: you do you? You know, there's a lot of buzz 379 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: about just Tua in general. Are you someone like do 380 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 2: you believe that this is an indictment that you're never 381 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: gonna win big with Tua? Or there's certainly limitations or what? 382 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 2: What do you just make of Tua? Because it does 383 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 2: feel like a lot of the Tua ta for coming 384 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 2: out hot and heavy right now after what is obviously 385 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: a disappointing end of the season for the Miami Dolphins. 386 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's pretty good, but the ceiling 387 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 1: is lower than it needs to be. I think you're 388 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: in the same kind of situation that the Rams found 389 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: themselves in or thought they were in. With Jared Goff, 390 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: He's going to have his opportunity at revenge tomorrow, and 391 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: you're seeing that, and you do see that from time 392 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: to time in the league. He's a pretty good player. 393 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: He's a pretty good quarterback. He's definitely one that needs 394 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: things to be right around him, and he's going to 395 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: need some help defensively here and there. But generally speaking, 396 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: you said, does he have limitations? Well, yeah, he's pretty small, 397 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: he's pretty frail. We know about the concussions, so that's 398 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: probably gonna make him a little bit more hesitant to run. 399 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: I was a little surprised to a few of the 400 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: scrimps he did attempt tonight, and then one where I 401 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: thought he could have gotten a first down and he 402 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: instead through the football and it was incomplete to Tyreek 403 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: Hill at a fairly crucial point when the game was 404 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: still very much up for grabs. I just I don't 405 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: think you're getting to the top of the mountain top 406 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: if you are Mike McDaniel with him as his quarterback. 407 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: I just don't. I think he is a fine player. 408 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: I think he is an NFL quarterback. I do not 409 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: think you win a Super Bowl with Tuatango Vailoa. Not 410 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,239 Speaker 1: the way the game is played now, and there's just 411 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: there's too many things about him that are inconsistent. It's 412 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: not about tonight, I'm given. I'm pretty much give him 413 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: a pass for tonight because I didn't think anybody in 414 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: a Dolphins uniform played well tonight. I didn't think anybody 415 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: in a Dolphin's hoodie coached well tonight. It was just 416 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: a bad performance all around. But irrespective of that, Aaron, 417 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: I just think to his flaws are noticeable, and they 418 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: are noticeable enough, and it happens not every week. There's 419 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: sometimes he looks good, and he can even have a 420 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: stretch of four or five games where he looks good. 421 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: He's just not. There's just too much inconsistency for me. 422 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: So that's where I am. I don't think that you 423 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 1: need to go all hot take you on Tua tonight. 424 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: I think that you could have gone hot takey on 425 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: him throughout the last month and a half or so 426 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: and just said, you know, there are flaws here that 427 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: can't be ignored and these are the kinds of things 428 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: that are are going to keep Miami from reaching the heights. 429 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: Maybe they could otherwise. I mean, look at the roster 430 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: he's got around him, and they have very little to 431 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: show for it. In fact, they have nothing to show 432 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: for it. 433 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 2: Well, and that's that was only gonna be my only 434 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 2: follow up there is that I think the concern is 435 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 2: he's never gonna be in a better situation. I mean 436 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: several elite skill position players, I mean elite, like top top, 437 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 2: top of the line, not just Waddle and Tyreek Hill, 438 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 2: but Devin and Devon, A chain has emerged this year, 439 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 2: most Aert, et cetera, and obviously an offensive coach that 440 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 2: we all think is very smart. So it'll be interesting. 441 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 2: I don't know that. I'm like, I don't know that 442 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 2: there's really that much of an interesting conversation, just because 443 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 2: I don't think we, like you said to start the show, 444 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: I don't think we really ultimately quote unquote learned anything 445 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 2: in this game. We knew it was gonna be tough 446 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: on the road in the cold weather. We know he 447 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: has not succeeded. We know this team has not succeeded 448 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 2: in the cold weather. So I'd love to just have 449 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: some huge, you know, bold takeaway from this game. But 450 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 2: I don't know that there really is one other than 451 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 2: that the weather did play a factor, and the team 452 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 2: that most people seem to think was going to win. 453 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 2: Did from Casey's perspective, I mean, I think I know 454 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: what your answer is going to be. Does this change 455 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 2: anything for you at all? From the case perspective? Now, 456 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 2: I will add, we obviously got an interesting twist to 457 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 2: Kansas City's next game, as if they do have to 458 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 2: go to Buffalo next week, they will essentially now have 459 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 2: two full days of extra rest compared to Buffalo, who 460 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: does not play until Monday at four thirty Eastern. I'm 461 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 2: sure everyone has seen that announcement by now, but Buffalo 462 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 2: and Pittsburgh will not play on Sunday because of the weather. 463 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 2: They will play on Monday. I don't know for me, Jason, 464 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: that this game changed all that much. Casey did run 465 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 2: the ball very effectively, but I don't know. I don't 466 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: think because they beat up on a team that clearly 467 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: didn't want to be there, that because they're better built 468 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 2: to play in that type of weather, that this fundamentally 469 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 2: changed how I feel about this team, the Kansas City Chiefs. 470 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 2: That is, how does anything change from your perspective? 471 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: No, I mean I think they if you've got Patrick Mahomes, 472 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: you've got a chance. You've got Patrick Mahomes, you've got 473 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: Andy Reid, You've got a chance. Kelsey had three drops, 474 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: but he also had seven catches for seventy one yards 475 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: in the game where she Rice had a great playoff 476 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: debut with eight catches in one hundred and thirty yards 477 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,239 Speaker 1: and a touchdown. He did what you needed him to do. 478 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: You mentioned Pacheco. He played well. They've still got the 479 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: pieces and everybody is flawed. We've talked about this. The 480 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: Ravens look just great, but who knows what's going to 481 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: happen next week when they actually get onto the field. 482 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 1: The Bills right now, I really really like what I've 483 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: seen from the Bills, but because of the weather, they 484 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: may lose to the Steelers. I mean, we have no 485 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 1: idea how that game is going to go. But if 486 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: you've got Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, then you can't 487 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: ever be counted out. Even if it still doesn't look 488 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: like they're fully together, they have been playing a little 489 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: bit better. It felt like the offensive line played better 490 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: tonight than I've seen as of late, at least for 491 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: the most part. It helped that Miami's injury was hit 492 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: at the wrong time. But no, I don't think you 493 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: learned anything about Kansas City here either. I mean, they 494 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: want at home in cold temperatures, and they're going to 495 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: be playing in cold temperatures next week. If they end 496 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: up going to Buffalo, for example, we'll find that out. 497 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: If they ended up in the Super Bowl. Is anybody 498 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: going to be that surprised? No, I don't think so. 499 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: But I don't look at them and think they're juggernauts either. 500 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: It's just it's still going to take a big time 501 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: haymaker to knock them out because they're battle tested. They've 502 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: been here before, and Holmes is not going to get 503 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: rattled in the playoffs. It's never happened before. I don't 504 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: know why what happened now, this is fuck correction. It 505 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,479 Speaker 1: did happen once. It happened to get Stampa Bay into 506 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. 507 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 2: That's true. That is true. Well, Kansas City does get 508 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 2: the win. Twenty six to seven is the final score. 509 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 2: Not all that much to react to, tell you what, Jason. 510 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: We'll come back. We'll react to the other game, certainly 511 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 2: more offense, certainly, more you know stuff. I don't know 512 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,959 Speaker 2: if there's that much more to talk about, but we'll 513 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: break it all down next before we do though, first 514 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: time this evening. Let's toss over the news desk Steve 515 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 2: de Seger, what is trending? Hello, guys, Chiefs twenty six 516 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 2: to seven over the Dolphins. You guys were talking about 517 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 2: what an awful telecast it was tonight that was only 518 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: topped today or should I say bottomed by CBS Sports 519 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: Network attempting to carry the Hula Bowl College Football All 520 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 2: Star Game horrendous. I tried to watch, I really tried. 521 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 2: I made it till ten minutes left in the first quarter. 522 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: All right, now, why was it bad? 523 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 6: Well, let's start by They didn't explain the All Star 524 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 6: games kickoff rules before the opening kickoff. The opening kick 525 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 6: plops inside the twenty. No one picks up the football. 526 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: Excuse me? 527 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 6: The camera didn't follow the first long pass down the field. 528 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 6: The announcers didn't explain why the Hula Bowl wasn't being 529 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 6: played in Hawaii it was in Orlando. 530 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. 531 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 6: They didn't explain the team names. They didn't have the 532 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 6: graphics to show what players were starting. 533 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 2: Can I say I accidentally changed the channel to that 534 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 2: and it was like, here's John Smith and it just 535 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 2: said like hometown Japan. And I was like I was like, 536 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 2: what does that even mean? But anyway, that was I 537 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 2: did flip it on by accident, and that literally. 538 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 6: And you know in these All Star football games they're 539 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 6: often wearing multiple helmet stickers. Also, it's just memo to 540 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 6: CBS Sports Network, did you even want to carry this game? 541 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 6: Because I've rarely seen less effort? It was horrendous? 542 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: Do you even broadcast? Bro? 543 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? Fair question. 544 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 6: Well, with the Dolphins loss in Kansas tonight, it's still 545 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 6: a possibility that the top four seeds in the AFC 546 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 6: are alive for next weekend's divisional round, which means if 547 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 6: the Bills went on Monday, it's going to be Chiefs 548 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 6: at Buffalo next weekend, which would put the four seed 549 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 6: Texans at the one seed Ravens next weekend. But as 550 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 6: you mentioned, we won't know until Monday because tomorrow's Pittsburgh 551 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 6: at Buffalo game was postponed Monday due to the snowstorm 552 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 6: in the city and there's a travel ban in that county. 553 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 1: Tonight. 554 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 6: Right now, in Kansas City, it's minus seven degrees wind 555 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 6: chill at about minus twenty seven.

By the way, Jason, the Saturday wild Card 604 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: weekend usually gives us something pretty interesting. I was thinking 605 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 2: about that. Wilad de Seger was given his update. But 606 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: last year we had we had Jags Chargers on wild 607 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 2: Card weekend, and Arnie Spanier and I were on for 608 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 2: the Titans Patriots Wildcard. 609 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: No, but yeah, the Titans Titan Patriots, which. 610 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 2: Was Brady's last game as a New England Patriot, did 611 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 2: not get nearly as much excitement today. But I'll say this, 612 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, listen, I hesitate to say that 613 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: anything is like a breakout performance for an NFL player. 614 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 2: The sport is so popular that the Texans had a 615 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 2: standalone game on last Saturday Night, which I'm sure was 616 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: watched by probably fifteen to twenty million people. 617 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: But CJ. 618 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 2: Stroud, I mean, there was a lot of buzz about 619 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 2: him after his performance against the Cleveland Browns sixteen to 620 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 2: twenty one, passing two hundred seventy four yards three touchdowns. 621 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: Also worth noting Joe Flacco two pick six, So a 622 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 2: lot of good from the the Houston offense, a lot 623 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 2: of good from the Houston defense. They advanced to the 624 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 2: next round of the playoffs after beating Cleveland forty five 625 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: to fourteen. 626 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, c J. Stroud is putting forth maybe 627 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: the best rookie season a quarterbacks ever had in the NFL. 628 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: It's it's unreal considering how he was not really talked 629 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: about before the season began, and it's just a joy 630 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: to watch him play. What he did today was extraordinary. 631 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: Let's not forget that that was the Browns defense. The 632 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns defense one of I don't care what metric 633 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: you look at, one of the two three best in 634 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: the league. A lot of people would say they are 635 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: the best defense in the league. And he shredded him. 636 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: He had two hundred and fifty yards a halftime in 637 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. He was able to just kind of cruise 638 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: in the second half the way we saw him do 639 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: that a couple of weeks ago because it was over. 640 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: It's incredible to watch the slow the offensive coordinator there, 641 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: who's certainly getting interviews in this cycle. His name is 642 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: going up, no question, and what they're doing is just unreal. 643 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: It's extraordinary considering especially the injuries that they have sustained. 644 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: It's not like he has a ton of skill talent everywhere. 645 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: He's got guys out and he's still making plays. It's extraordinary. 646 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: Really is like he has become. When he's playing on TV. 647 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: I want to see him just about as badly as 648 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: anybody else in sports Right now. I just want to 649 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: sit down and watch CJ. Stroud play football because it's 650 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: so entertaining and like how fast he gets the ball 651 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: out of his hands, how accurate he is, and how 652 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: he's throwing guys open as a rookie in the National 653 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: Football League. It is. It's a joy. Like that game 654 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: was a blowout, but it was still interesting because CJ. 655 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: Stroud is so much fun to watch. I tell you what. 656 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 2: Obviously, the way things are trending, it looks as though 657 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: they will likely play the Ravens next round that I 658 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 2: don't know. That feels like a game where if he 659 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: gets hot in the right moment. I don't think they 660 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 2: will beat Baltimore, but I do think it's at least 661 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 2: possible the Houston Texans take care of the Cleveland Browns 662 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: forty five to fourteen.

Two finals in the NFL, the Houston 704 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 2: Texans take care of the Cleveland Browns in the early 705 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 2: game forty five to fourteen is a score there. Kansas 706 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: City in the late game twenty six to seven case 707 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 2: beats Miami. Miami just flatly looked like they did not 708 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 2: want to be there. Jason Crazy week at Sportsman, We're 709 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 2: gonna can I mentioned. 710 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,240 Speaker 1: One thing real fast, just before before we get to 711 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: the more serious stuff. This has to be a wreck, 712 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: It's gotta be history. So I'm listening to the Westwood 713 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: one broadcast on a radio earlier of the game, the 714 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: first game. Okay, so you got Iron Eagle calling the 715 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: game with Jason mccordy. No what Eagle is calling the 716 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:41,760 Speaker 1: game on TV and Devin mccordy is in the studio 717 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: for NBC. So you had two sets of relatives, the 718 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: father and son and twin brothers, both on the same day, 719 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: all broadcasting the same event simultaneously. There is no way 720 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: in the world that's ever happened before. I know that's nothing, 721 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: but it's just something that that piqued my interest. As 722 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: as it happened. It was just like, how is this 723 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: possible that we are watching this right now? 724 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 2: That is really interesting. I knew as soon as you 725 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,720 Speaker 2: went there that that's where you're gonna go. I can't 726 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 2: think of anything that would even come close to resembling that. Now. 727 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:19,399 Speaker 2: I'm far from a sports media officionado, I will say 728 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: it was interesting. I was watching a game today college basketball. 729 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 2: Jamal Mashburn junior plays for Richard Patino at New Mexico. 730 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 2: Of course, Jamal Mashburn senior played for Rick Patino at Kentucky. 731 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 2: I mean, that's sort of kind of the same thing, 732 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 2: the double father son coaching son duo, but. 733 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: Could have been a triple with Collinsworth. It called the 734 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 1: game tonight, that's sure, Garrett. You could have literally had 735 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: three sets of relatives, that's right, doing some at the 736 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 1: same time. But the other thing is you had a 737 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 1: guy on radio and TV both both sets. You had 738 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: one guy doing TV and one guy doing radio in 739 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: both sets. It was just it was just like, man, 740 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: that is uh, that's some small world stuff right there. 741 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 2: It is. It is. It's it's certainly interesting. 742 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: And just a little sidebar. 743 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 2: No, it's it's it's no, it's it's interesting. I don't 744 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 2: really know what else to add other than that it 745 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: is interesting. I can't think of anything else anywhere close 746 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 2: to it happening. Let's go to the uh, let's go 747 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,439 Speaker 2: to the NFL. Though, let's stay in the NFL. Didn't 748 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 2: want to ask you. So we're gonna spend a lot 749 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: of time in hour two talking NFL coaching, Carosel you 750 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 2: don't say yeah, and college football. We're we're gonna jam 751 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 2: like three weeks worth of stories just in the hour 752 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 2: two because hour three we actually have to preview the 753 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 2: remaining four games in the playoffs. So stay tuned for 754 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 2: hour two. We're gonna get to a lot of different stuff. 755 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 2: So my question for you was New England, and again 756 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 2: we'll talk about all these other openings in Belichick. Where 757 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 2: does he land? You know, hardball, that good stuff. My 758 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 2: question for you, though, is we do have one job 759 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 2: that has already been filled. That is in New England. 760 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: Gerrodmeyo takes over for Bill Belichick. And for people again 761 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 2: who missed the story yesterday, Girod Mayo, in his contract 762 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 2: was the coach in waiting. So that is how they 763 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 2: avoided the interview process, how they avoided any Rooney rule violations, 764 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 2: although I guess I don't know how that would have 765 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 2: worked because Girod Mayo is a minority but I bring 766 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 2: it up to say they didn't have to go through 767 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: the normal interview process with girod Mayo. He's the head 768 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 2: coach in New England. And I can't lie, Jason, I 769 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 2: was a little bit underwhelmed by this one, only from 770 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 2: the perspective that, you know, the Patriot way. It was great, 771 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 2: it was fun for a minute, and then the last 772 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 2: couple of years, you know, the Belichick stuff started to 773 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 2: kind of wear on people. Belichick's assistants don't have a 774 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 2: very good track record in the NFL. You got a 775 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 2: former player of Belichick, a former assistant of Belichick. I 776 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 2: feel like this is kind of just the same thing. 777 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 2: But what did you make of the first major domino 778 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 2: falling in terms of a hiring in the NFL? 779 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it was a no brainer in terms of 780 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: this is what was going to happen. Twenty four hours 781 00:38:58,400 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: before he got the gear. 782 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 2: I think the lines down Okay, okay, okay, because I 783 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 2: was gonna say a lot of people were talking Vrabel. 784 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: It was him a Vrabel. I mean, you knew it 785 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: was gonna be him a Vrabel. But when Vegas took 786 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: the lines down because he was such a favorite, you 787 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: knew it was gonna be him. Look, he played at 788 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,479 Speaker 1: Tennessee and I used to host a show with a 789 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: guy who played with him in college, Romne Foster, and 790 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: I remember we interviewed Gerard years ago and jirob was 791 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: very measured in what he was saying, and he was 792 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: clearly at that point in time, really starting to look 793 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 1: towards his future as a head coach. And he's a 794 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: guy that pretty much intimated to us this was going 795 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 1: to happen a long long time ago. You know, they 796 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: had their succession planned. This is who the Patriots wanted, 797 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 1: this is this is the guy. He has a lot 798 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: of Belichick in him. Apparently they call him, you know, 799 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: Bill Junior or whatever like that. He's not You can't 800 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: look at to necessarily look at the history of Belichick 801 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: assistants and say this is what's going to happen. And 802 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: I think that the thing that has bothered me, if 803 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: there's been anything that's bothered me about sort of the 804 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: discourse surrounding the Mayo hire, it's only that, oh, you've 805 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: got to take a bigger swing than this. It's just like, 806 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: just because you don't know who he is doesn't mean 807 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: he's not good doesn't mean he can't be great. If 808 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: you want to talk about I would hire this guy 809 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: because of this. If you want me to give you 810 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: a reason why you don't hire a Jerii Mayo, it's 811 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,840 Speaker 1: just simply that I don't like hiring defensive head coaches 812 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three because you're going to have a 813 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: rotating cast of offensive coordinators if any of them are good, 814 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: because they're going to keep getting jobs elsewhere. That's discourse 815 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: I can get behind if you want to have that discussion, 816 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: but don't get behind the well, he's not a star 817 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: name like Jim Harbaugh had been fine, but Jerii Mayo's 818 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,320 Speaker 1: not because a lot of people don't know who Gerii 819 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: Mayo is. That's ridiculous. I mean a lot of people 820 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: know who Sean McVay was either. Think it worked out 821 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,439 Speaker 1: pretty well, Like I think that that narrative is weak 822 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: and it needs to go. There are plenty of reasons 823 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: that we can have a logical discussion here, and we 824 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: can have a rational discussion. One of them should not 825 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: be the star power of the name Gerrodmeo. That's a 826 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: huge mistake, especially considering Kaylin de Boor, who will talk 827 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: about somebody nobody even knew his name a year ago 828 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: or a couple of years ago before he took the 829 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 1: Washington Gig. I mean nobody. Obviously, yes, some people did, 830 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: but by and large, the vast majority of people did 831 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 1: not know who Caitlyn de Boor was until two years 832 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: ago when he took the Washington Gig. And you see 833 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: where he is now, and you see where he was 834 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 1: a week ago in a National championship game. So that 835 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: bothered me. Just because you don't know who he is 836 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: doesn't mean he's not good. It just means you don't 837 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: know who he is. 838 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,479 Speaker 2: So I agree with everything is. I have no problem 839 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 2: with going young, going different again. Who knew who Sean 840 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 2: McVay was, who knew who Mike McDaniel was. But I 841 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 2: do worry. I just worry about defensive guy, plus the 842 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 2: Belichick ties, plus all. I think, you know, it didn't 843 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 2: work with Belichick for a very obvious reason, and I 844 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 2: guess I'd just be a little bit concerned just just 845 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 2: going back to that tree. But again, maybe he's a 846 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 2: little bit different.

Kansas City wins. 863 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 2: You could just see within minutes that Miami did not 864 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 2: want to be there, did not look comfortable in the elements. 865 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 2: We'll get back to the NFL in a little bit, 866 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 2: and we will also get to the four games coming 867 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 2: up here over the next two days, including now two 868 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 2: games on Monday night with the Buffalo Bills and the 869 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers being postponed from Tomorrow Sunday to Monday afternoon. 870 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 2: That said, Jason, busy week of college football. If you 871 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 2: had told let me put it this way, Jason, if 872 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 2: you had told me a week ago, we're gonna talk, 873 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 2: you know, we're gonna crown a national champion on Monday, 874 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 2: and there is going to be a bigger college football 875 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 2: related story than the national champion. I think I would 876 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 2: have said, there's only one thing that could possibly top that, 877 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 2: and that's Nick Saban retiring, but that'll never happen. Well 878 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: like Saban freaking retired on Wednesday. Jason, let me ask you. 879 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 2: I know you're not on on social media as much now, 880 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 2: jmart Radio. Is your Twitter handle x handle? Where were you? 881 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: Did you find out through social media? And the only 882 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 2: reason I ask is because credit to Chris Low from ESPN, 883 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 2: he broke the story. I want to say, Wednesday about 884 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 2: five o'clock Eastern time or so. And I think I 885 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: speak for a lot of people when I say I 886 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 2: did the double triple, quadruple check of is this his account? 887 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,399 Speaker 2: Is this a verified account? Is this is this? Did 888 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: he get hacked? Then he see Adams chef to share it. 889 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: You see Pete Thame, all the all the big ESPN personalities. 890 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 2: Where were you? How did you find out that freaking 891 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: Nick Saban is retiring as a college football coach? 892 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 1: Jase. So, I had just left a meeting and I 893 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 1: was actually having a conversation with my dad. He was 894 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: in chair, I was in chair in there playing. 895 00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 2: I'm glad him sitting down. 896 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And we were talking about Mike Vrabel losing 897 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 1: his job and Pete Carroll and I looked over to 898 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: I just looked over to his television and he had 899 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: it on ESPN and the bottom line went red, and 900 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,760 Speaker 1: I was like, well, okay, I guess this is Carol. 901 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,760 Speaker 1: Even though it's not really breaking, it happened this morning. 902 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: And then I saw Sabin retires according to ESPN's low 903 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 1: and I was like, did I just see that? I 904 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: did the same thing you did. Like, I look back, 905 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: and they went to break immediately because they weren't going 906 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: to a special report. They were in the middle of 907 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: one of their opinion shows. And I just said, is 908 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: that real? And so I immediately pulled out the phone 909 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:41,800 Speaker 1: and googled it to find it. It wasn't there and 910 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: then I went to the athletic and I saw that 911 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 1: they had picked it up, and then ESPN took Lowe's 912 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: piece and of course put it up, and it was 913 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: just like, okay, all right. Then it was I mean, 914 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: this whole week, We'll never see anything like this again. 915 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: You had Carol, Belichick and Sabin all with news the 916 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: week of the National Championship Game, and at least two 917 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 1: of those trump the National Championship Game. The Saban thing. 918 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: Even though I predicted it a few years ago, I 919 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: was still stunned to see it actually happen in front 920 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: of me. I wasn't like I told you so, it 921 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 1: was more like, I mean, I guess I turned out 922 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 1: to be right, But I started to feel like prior, 923 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: like right there at the end of the year, maybe 924 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: he was maybe he was gonna prove me wrong, because 925 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: he still looked healthy, still look fine, and the team 926 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: had you know, he'd just done maybe his best coaching 927 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: job ever. But then you really stop and you look 928 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 1: back on it's just like, man, if he and Belichick 929 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 1: are as close as we think they are, if he's 930 00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 1: watched kind of the bloom fall off the rows of 931 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick, Saban can get out now before this whole 932 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 1: new era even begins, and his legacy is intact. The 933 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 1: longer he stays, the chances are he's not going to 934 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 1: add to it, only gonna poke holes in it. And 935 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: there's nothing he has left to prove. So I can 936 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: see a very very good rationale from a health, from 937 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 1: a mental health, from an enjoy your life, from a 938 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: you know, get paid to go talk on TV, enjoy 939 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 1: things with your family, whatever. There's a lot of reasons 940 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 1: why Nick Saban leaving right now makes a whole lot 941 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:21,320 Speaker 1: of sense. 942 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:26,399 Speaker 2: So I agree. And you know, one, obviously we've gotten 943 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 2: a lot of news since this story broke, but you know, 944 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 2: my first thought is, you know, something is there something bad? 945 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 2: Is there a health thing? And obviously we have found out, 946 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,280 Speaker 2: at least according to Nick Saban, that it has nothing 947 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 2: to do with that. I think that was my exact thought, Jason, 948 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 2: is just you know, and we we do the whole 949 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 2: thing in the media of like not you and I 950 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:46,919 Speaker 2: because I think we're a little more informed than maybe 951 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 2: the average person that's that's talking about this stuff. But 952 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 2: oh he's afraid of nil and oh the playing field. Uh, 953 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 2: you know, he's mad that everybody has access to players now, 954 00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 2: and it's like, well, I mean, he did just win 955 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 2: the SEC. I think he's doing just fine here. But 956 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 2: I do think when you really step back and you 957 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 2: really look at what college football is gonna be next year, 958 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 2: you know, one just he talked on Thursday about the 959 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 2: grind of this season, about the grind of you know, 960 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 2: of of having to to to dig yourself out of 961 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,760 Speaker 2: the hole with the Texas loss and the quarterback issues 962 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 2: and whatever, and I was thinking, like, next year, it's 963 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 2: only gonna be crazier. I mean, one, obviously the SEC 964 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 2: schedules get just bananas, but two, even beyond that, now 965 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:38,399 Speaker 2: you have the twelve team playoff, where at minimum you're 966 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 2: looking at at least one extra postseason game. To win 967 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 2: a championship, you're gonna have to win a minimum of 968 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 2: three postseason games plus an SEC championship game, and then 969 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 2: maybe four depending on if you lose that SEC championship game. 970 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 2: And that's if you make it. And obviously there's gonna 971 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 2: be years where there's just too many good teams in 972 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 2: the SEC. And so I think that's that was my 973 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 2: take away as to why as well is I don't 974 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 2: think he's scared of the competition. I don't think he's this. 975 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 2: I don't think he's that, but I do just think 976 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 2: I think there's Jim Harball parallel. Right, if Jim Harball leaves, 977 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 2: it's like, now's kind of the time, the Big Ten 978 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 2: is expanding. You won your championship, there's some legitimately good 979 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 2: NFL jobs open, You've done everything you said you were 980 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 2: gonna do when you went to Michigan. And that's the 981 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 2: parallel that I would make with Jim. With Nick Saban 982 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 2: is like I just think when I look at Nick Saban, 983 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 2: it's like this just feels like the time. He's still 984 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 2: in good health. The sport is changing rapidly. It's going 985 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 2: to change even more next year. Maybe this just wasn't 986 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 2: Maybe this just was the right time. 987 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't think he's afraid of NIL. 988 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 1: I also think he wasn't looking forward to dealing with it. 989 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 1: I think it's a nuisance. I think it's annoying. I 990 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 1: think it's not as fun as it used to be. 991 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, some coaches have caught him, and some coaches 992 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 1: are gonna make it harder for him. But I also 993 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 1: think he's in his seventies and he's already regarded as 994 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 1: the greatest coach of all time. What else is there 995 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,439 Speaker 1: left to do here? Like, there's not there's no real 996 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:08,439 Speaker 1: good reason to stick around. There's not anything necessarily that's 997 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: going to be gained by sticking around unless he just 998 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:15,359 Speaker 1: can't stop coaching. But I just I never really got 999 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,880 Speaker 1: that sense about it. It is only going to become 1000 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: more of a grind, the recruiting grind, obviously, a twelve 1001 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,040 Speaker 1: team playoff and all the things that you have to 1002 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: go through there, it does. It just it felt like 1003 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: the time to walk away because most people believed he 1004 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 1: had done a wonderful coaching job all year. It's one 1005 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 1: of the worst teams he'd had in a long time, 1006 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 1: and he still took the eventual national champions to overtime, 1007 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: double overtime or overtime and nearly beat them. And I 1008 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: just I think that you just look at that, you 1009 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: look at the landscape, your own age, and just do 1010 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 1: you want to do anything else with your life? Do 1011 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: you want to spend time with Terry? You know, do 1012 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 1: you want to maybe go I mean, he's good on TV, 1013 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 1: regardless of what people think of Nick Saban, and I 1014 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 1: know he's very controversial, but he's always compelling to me 1015 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: on TV. He's good. He's friends with a lot of 1016 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,839 Speaker 1: ESPN guys, So I could see that definitely working out 1017 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 1: if he wanted it to. I think that, you know, 1018 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: with what college football is becoming and where it's going, 1019 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 1: it's not that it's a bygone era. But I don't 1020 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:25,839 Speaker 1: think that he wanted to be a guy that was 1021 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: regarded as somebody who lost his fastball before he left, 1022 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 1: Like Bobby Bowden was awesome, but Bobby Bowden lost his 1023 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 1: fastball before he quit, before he retired, before it was over. 1024 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 1: There are very few opportunities to walk away on your 1025 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 1: own terms. Nobody was pushing for Nick Saban to leave, 1026 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 1: Nobody believed that he couldn't get the job done anymore. 1027 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 1: He was able to step away. He didn't win a championship, 1028 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: but he still managed to come awfully close with a 1029 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 1: team that didn't look like they were championship worthy a 1030 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 1: month into the season. So he gets that rare opportunity 1031 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 1: to walk off into the sunset and wave with people 1032 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: saying please don't go, as opposed to don't let the 1033 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,320 Speaker 1: door hit you on the way out. 1034 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 2: Yes, and so really quickly because again we had a 1035 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 2: jam about a month's worth of stories into this next 1036 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 2: hour before we start to preview the four games next week. 1037 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 2: Caitlin Debower. Obviously a lot of people maybe didn't know 1038 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,879 Speaker 2: much about him as of two weeks ago, but Pac 1039 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,359 Speaker 2: twelve champion finishes fourteen to one, national runner up, they 1040 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 2: beat Texas in the College Football Playoff. He is your 1041 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 2: next Alabama coach. And you know, he had his press 1042 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 2: conference today. I think he sounded he said all the 1043 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 2: right things. You know, he said all the right things 1044 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 2: about Nick Saban. He said all the right things about recruiting. 1045 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 2: He's obviously a guy that doesn't have ties to the SEC. 1046 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 2: I think I'll say this. I think it's about as 1047 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: good as you could have done. And I understand that, 1048 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,760 Speaker 2: you know, there are certain guys that have more ties 1049 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 2: to the SEC or to Alabama or whatever. But I 1050 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: was one of those people that said, I don't know 1051 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 2: who could possibly want to replace Nick's and this will 1052 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 2: be a very tough job to fill because as great 1053 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,200 Speaker 2: as the Alabama job is, like, who wants the task 1054 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:09,760 Speaker 2: of replacing the goat? Well, I think all things consider, 1055 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,200 Speaker 2: they did pretty well. And I think Calen de Bower again. 1056 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 2: We'll see if he works. We'll see if he's built 1057 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 2: for the SEC and he's built to recruit in the Southeast. 1058 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 2: But I thought the Higher itself was about as good 1059 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 2: as you could ask for. 1060 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he's about as hot a name as you 1061 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 1: could find right now. Whoever you brought in, there was 1062 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a reason to say, well, he can't fill 1063 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: Nick Saban's shoes, or history says this is gonna not 1064 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,919 Speaker 1: go very well. It's like, well, right, that's because I mean, 1065 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 1: there's only one Nick Saban. History has never talked about 1066 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 1: anybody following Nick Saban because it's never really happened before, 1067 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: at least not this version of Nick Saban that's had 1068 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: all the success at Alabama. De Boer, if de Boer's 1069 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 1: name is never gonna be hotter than it is right now, 1070 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 1: he was never gonna be in a better spot because 1071 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 1: he's gonna lose Penix. He's gonna lose Penis. And even 1072 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: though he was gonna have Rogers, I just don't think 1073 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: Washington was set up to be that team again next year, 1074 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: the one that they had this year. Maybe so, but 1075 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 1: I don't think so. When he was going to the 1076 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 1: big sen it was going to be even harder all 1077 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 1: of that. So you go ahead and take the gig 1078 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,360 Speaker 1: and you go to Alabama where you have built in 1079 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 1: recruiting advantages because it's Alabama. Let's just say there's a 1080 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 1: better pipeline to Alabama than there is to the Pacific Northwest. 1081 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: Washington does very well. And one thing that you did 1082 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 1: note from Debor is he did great in the transfer portal. 1083 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 1: He's somebody that plucks some guys in that ended up 1084 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: being studs for him. And if he's able to do 1085 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: that at Alabama, it's gonna be fine. But if you 1086 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 1: didn't want de Boor, if you're an Alabama fan, who 1087 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,760 Speaker 1: did you want Dabbo? I don't think so in twenty 1088 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 1: twenty three. I think that that might have been something 1089 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: for four years ago, but it's not for right now. 1090 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: And there's just not a lot of other names out 1091 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 1: there that would have made any sense. Nothing is going 1092 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 1: to be Nick No, nothing is going to be Nick 1093 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,840 Speaker 1: Saban two point zero. So go get a young guy 1094 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: who's had success everywhere he's been and don't don't you 1095 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,719 Speaker 1: know Poo poo the Naia and Fresno State and everything else. 1096 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,399 Speaker 1: Look at what he's done, and hopefully you can lure 1097 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,719 Speaker 1: gru Ub with him. Now. Washington, I'm sure might try 1098 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 1: to throw money to keep Grub there to be the 1099 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: head coach. But Grub the offensive coordinator who was really 1100 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 1: one of the masterminds of everything they were doing. I 1101 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 1: think it's crucial to try and get him to come 1102 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: with you if you can. But I don't. I just 1103 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 1: kind of said, okay, all right, Kevilyn the boor that 1104 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: makes sense. The only other name that I liked was Lanning, right, 1105 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 1: I thought that Lanning made a lot of sense. But 1106 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,880 Speaker 1: Lanning I think did the right thing. First off, Oregon's 1107 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: gonna love him. The fan base is gonna love him 1108 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: for that video that he put up saying that he 1109 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: loves what he has. It's a great thing. And guess what, 1110 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: the guy that Alabama ended up getting beat Dan Lanning 1111 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: twice this past year. So I think that I think 1112 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:51,040 Speaker 1: anybody that is disappointed here, I just want you to 1113 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: tell me who it was that was going to be better. 1114 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: And don't tell me Kirby Smart because that's insane. That 1115 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:57,320 Speaker 1: was never going to happen. 1116 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, there was nobody that it appears as though would 1117 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 2: have seriously taken the job that you can argue is better. 1118 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 2: I mean, there was some that said, well what about 1119 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 2: Steve Sarkisian. I don't think that he was ever going 1120 00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 2: to take the job, by the way, either, Kalen de 1121 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 2: Bor beat him in the College Watch job. So listen. 1122 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 2: I get it's one of those. It's weird because I 1123 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 2: get the trepidation, I get the concern. I get that 1124 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 2: sometimes when you bring in somebody who has never been 1125 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:30,320 Speaker 2: in the SEC by the way, the anti people will 1126 00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 2: make the parallel. Alburn a few years ago hired Brian 1127 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 2: Harrison exactly from the Pacific Northwest, had never been there, 1128 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 2: and he flamed out in two years. This feels way, way, 1129 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 2: way different. And again, you know, if you want to wait, listen, 1130 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 2: if you're a fan that wants to wait till September, October, November, 1131 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 2: December to judge this guy, I totally get it. All 1132 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 2: I will say is all I will say is that 1133 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: press conference today. I did get a chance to watch 1134 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 2: a little bit of it. He said all the right things. 1135 00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 2: The resume speaks for itself. Now it's time to go 1136 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 2: out and do it.

We just discussed that. 1148 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 2: If you missed any of that, make sure to download 1149 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 2: the podcast available shortly after the show. By the way, 1150 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 2: looking right. 1151 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 1: Now, ball the way, if you just tuned in, Texans 1152 00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 1: Dominated and the Chief speak the Dolphins, And yes, by 1153 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: the way, j Charle's awesome in the second game, what's 1154 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 1: talking about Andy Reid's mustache? 1155 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: So why I hesitated there? Ryan Grubb, who is the 1156 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator of the University of Washington, he seemed like 1157 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 2: a logical successor, released a statement at nine to seventeen 1158 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 2: right as we were going to break. It's a lot 1159 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 2: of words. I will not read all of it, but 1160 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 2: it reads as though he is not getting the job 1161 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 2: he said. It ends by saying, and I am so 1162 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 2: blessed to have been here. Thank you all for the 1163 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 2: support and belief to you gave me and my family. 1164 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:45,480 Speaker 2: We will always love Seattle to my players. I am 1165 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 2: sorry I could not finish the fight. Love you go dogs. 1166 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 2: Coach Grub. Maybe it means nothing. Feels like a weird 1167 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,800 Speaker 2: thing to release unless you were pretty sure that you 1168 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,439 Speaker 2: were not going to be back as part of the 1169 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 2: coaching staf right. 1170 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I was mentioning for the break. If 1171 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,440 Speaker 1: you could get him, I'm sure the board would like 1172 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: to get him back and make him the OC at Alabama, 1173 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 1: which would set him in motion to get a head 1174 00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 1: coaching job somewhere, even though there are other jobs that 1175 00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 1: he could potentially get. But you don't release that statement 1176 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 1: if you're about to become the head coach at Washington, 1177 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 1: that means they're moving on. They're going somewhere else, and 1178 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:25,240 Speaker 1: you know, you know, we'll see. We've seen some of 1179 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 1: those names pop up, lancelt Pold, and there have been 1180 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 1: a few Chris Kleiman. I think's name has been out 1181 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,800 Speaker 1: there as well. But yeah, you don't release that statement 1182 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 1: if you're then going to become the coach. 1183 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:42,920 Speaker 2: You know, there is a national championship winning college football 1184 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 2: coach that's in Seattle right now. 1185 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I've seen that. Pop. That seems really odd 1186 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 1: to me. That just seems odd to me. 1187 00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 2: It was funny because when he got fired, as you said, 1188 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 2: a few hours before Nick Saban announced his retirement, I 1189 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: did say, like I said, I was like, you know, 1190 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 2: I'll say this is I think Pete Carroll is weirdly 1191 01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 2: more built for college football now than he was when 1192 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 2: he left in terms of the portal and nil. And 1193 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:14,880 Speaker 2: then I said, oh, I mean he's seventy two years old. Yeah, 1194 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 2: that's old. But I mean Nick Saban's still going strong. 1195 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 2: So obviously that story changed quite a bit. 1196 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1197 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 2: I don't get the sense that he is a candidate 1198 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,640 Speaker 2: for Washington, and I certainly don't get the sense that 1199 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 2: he is going to come back to college football in 1200 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,440 Speaker 2: any way, shape or for him. He does want to coach, though, 1201 01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 2: we'll talk about him in a minute. Really quickly, just 1202 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 2: let's put a ball on college football. I mean, I 1203 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 2: don't know what else Sir is to say about Michigan 1204 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 2: that hasn't already been said by the guys and girls 1205 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 2: on this network. I was happy for them. I thought 1206 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 2: it was a great you know, I personally thought it 1207 01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 2: was a great cap to a three year run that 1208 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 2: they have been on. You know, people wanted Hardball fired 1209 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 2: after the COVID season. He made a lot of changes 1210 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 2: to his staff, the players, and I don't know. I 1211 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 2: just thought it was a great story. I know a 1212 01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 2: lot of people think it was marred by these science investigation. 1213 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 2: I think when you fire counter stallions and then you 1214 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 2: beat Penn State, you beat Ohio State without Jim Harbour 1215 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:10,680 Speaker 2: on the sidelines, you go to the playoff, you beat 1216 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 2: the SEC champ, you beat an undefeated PAC twelve champ, 1217 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 2: it left no doubt to me. I thought they were 1218 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,280 Speaker 2: the best team this season. I thought they were deserving 1219 01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:19,720 Speaker 2: national champion. I thought it was a cool end to 1220 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 2: a three year run for them, And that was my 1221 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 2: only takeaway was cool story. I don't know that there's 1222 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 2: much more. Did you have anything any big picture takeaways 1223 01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 2: for Monday Night? 1224 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: Nothing other than congratulations to them, Congratulations to those young 1225 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:36,360 Speaker 1: men they succeeded. I mean, you look at Blake Krum 1226 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: decided to come back to school and they won a 1227 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,920 Speaker 1: national championship. And McCarthy, even though he wasn't like he 1228 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: made a couple of big plays in a national championship game, 1229 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 1: but he wasn't called upon to win the thing. But 1230 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 1: he had a big crucial scramble, for instance, on a 1231 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 1: third down when that game was still out there to 1232 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 1: be taken. Washington just couldn't find a way to get 1233 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: in the end zone fast enough when they had the 1234 01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: ball on the second half. Just just a bad night 1235 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,800 Speaker 1: for Michael Pennix. And I think that it seems very 1236 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 1: interesting that a lot of guys have bad nights against Michigan. 1237 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I think. 1238 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 1: It is high time to pay real respect to Michigan's 1239 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 1: defense and real respect to their own line. Even with 1240 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,880 Speaker 1: the injury that they sustained to their leader, they were 1241 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 1: still good enough. They were still very, very good. I 1242 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:27,280 Speaker 1: think it's time to pay homage to Harball in terms 1243 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 1: of what a coach he is. Regardless of scandal or 1244 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: asterisk or whatever it is that you want to put 1245 01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:37,160 Speaker 1: on it, you can't deny how good he is at 1246 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:39,160 Speaker 1: the job. And I still I kind of want to 1247 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: see him go to the NFL now because I just 1248 01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:45,480 Speaker 1: still think he's more built for that world. And I 1249 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 1: also want to see Sharon Moore get the job, like 1250 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 1: I would like to see them not go outside and 1251 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: actually give it to the guy who had the helm 1252 01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 1: when Harball was sent away. And I would love to 1253 01:02:56,520 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 1: see what Sharon Moore could do if Harball does leave. 1254 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 1: Would be a massive mistake for Michigan to hire anybody else. 1255 01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: If Hardball does leave. 1256 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 2: Well, I think the only real candidate that probably would 1257 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 2: have taken the job just got hired at Alabama. And yeah, 1258 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 2: I don't think there's that you know, quote unquote, you know, 1259 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 2: national championship caliber coach that's just sitting out there. I 1260 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 2: will say, you know, listen, I I weirdly, you know, 1261 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 2: I do hope Jim Harbaugh comes back, But I also 1262 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 2: don't really see the argument as to why he would. 1263 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 2: We know he's been interested in the NFL. He's interviewed 1264 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 2: for jobs each of the last two off seasons, you know, 1265 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:40,120 Speaker 2: super plugged in. People like Bernie Frattle will tell you 1266 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 2: that losing in that Super Bowl is always not at him. 1267 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,959 Speaker 2: He's always wanted to get back to the league. And 1268 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 2: it's kind of the same thing that we talked about 1269 01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 2: a minute ago, is that I just don't know, you're 1270 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 2: coming back into a tougher era of college football. Big 1271 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 2: Ten's gonna be better, The Playoff's going to be harder 1272 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 2: to win. You know, this year just they were the 1273 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 2: best team, They were the deserving team, but a lot 1274 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 2: of things broke right. You know, Georgia was probably a 1275 01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 2: tougher matchup for them than Bama ended up being. Easily 1276 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 2: could have lost to Obama in that semi final. So 1277 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 2: if I'm Jim Harbaugh, I probably do leave. But I 1278 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 2: also you know, as a college football fan, I'll be sad, 1279 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 2: but I think it's probably the right decision if that's 1280 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 2: what he decides. Yeah, yeah, I'll tell you what. 1281 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:25,760 Speaker 1: I would just say real let me say this real fast. 1282 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 1: I would just say it's I would leave because it 1283 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 1: was so hard to get this done, exactly to win 1284 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,480 Speaker 1: this national championship. I don't mean this year. I mean 1285 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 1: the very beginning, like the whole task at Michigan, almost 1286 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,800 Speaker 1: losing your gig, having the staff changes, having people calling 1287 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 1: for your head left and right, having to find a 1288 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 1: way to finally get the Ohio State monkey off your back, 1289 01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 1: and then doing it three years in a row. Whatever 1290 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,400 Speaker 1: the scandals are and all that, but the recruiting grind 1291 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: that's constant. And then it goes to overtime against Alabama. 1292 01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:58,120 Speaker 1: You escape that, and then you get by Washington in 1293 01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 1: the National Championship games. It was so hard, so taxing 1294 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 1: to do this once. You still don't have an NFL championship, 1295 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: but you've already done this. Ride high and ride out now, 1296 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 1: so that your lasting impression is I'm a National championship 1297 01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 1: coach that's going to go try his hand again in 1298 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 1: the NFL. I just think now is the perfect opportunity 1299 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:20,439 Speaker 1: to leave. 1300 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 2: With all that in mind, it's hard for me to disagree, 1301 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 2: even as a college football fan. I do want Jim 1302 01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 2: Harbaugh back. Fox Sports Radio Air Torris Jason Martin broadcasting 1303 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:32,479 Speaker 2: live from the Tirec dot Com studios. We'll come back 1304 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 2: and we'll discuss what could be next for Jim Harbaugh 1305 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,520 Speaker 2: if it's not Michigan. Before we do, though, Steve de Sager, 1306 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 2: what is trending? My friend? 1307 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 6: We'll get to the Chiefs and Texans win. But you 1308 01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 6: guys were talking about the Michigan defense. What is one 1309 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 6: thing we kept mentioning on this Saturday Night show throughout 1310 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 6: the season. You know, Michigan doesn't play a ranked team 1311 01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 6: until mid November when they're at Penn State. But they 1312 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 6: weren't just beating the lesser team, and they were slaughtering 1313 01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:57,439 Speaker 6: them week after week. 1314 01:05:57,520 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 2: Well, and that's why, like when people try to throw 1315 01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:01,840 Speaker 2: out so I mean it's a tainted championship, it's like 1316 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 2: they beat Minnesota fifty two to three or forty eight, 1317 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 2: Like they weren't beating Minnesota because they were still excited. 1318 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 2: They were beating Minnesota because they were way better than them. 1319 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,560 Speaker 6: When they started nine to zero against a collection of 1320 01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 6: you could say nobody's including Michigan State this year was nobody, 1321 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,120 Speaker 6: but only one team scored more than ten points. It 1322 01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:23,360 Speaker 6: was a bunch of fifty to ten type of games. 1323 01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,520 Speaker 6: Which brings me to something we always say on the 1324 01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 6: Sunday Night Show, and that is good is good. And 1325 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 6: my example always goes back to college hoops thirty plus 1326 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 6: years ago. In college hoops final four team was from 1327 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 6: the Big West Conference, it was UNLV, but you know what, 1328 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 6: they were good. It doesn't matter where they were from. 1329 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 2: Gonzaga with nine NBA players on the roster. 1330 01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:46,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, Bengo, I don't care what comes. As far as 1331 01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 6: Michigan schedule. This coming year, they have home game against Texas, 1332 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:54,240 Speaker 6: home game against USC home game against Oregon, and Michigan 1333 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 6: will be at Washington in early October. 1334 01:06:57,240 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 2: I think they play Ohio State at some point they do. 1335 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 2: I believe you think too. That is worth noting, which 1336 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:06,800 Speaker 2: I didn't even mention before. They're going away from divisions, 1337 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 2: so now you could have to play Ohio State a 1338 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 2: second time, Oregon a second time. Continue to sagre, but 1339 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 2: these are all reasons why it probably makes sense for Harbada. 1340 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:16,400 Speaker 6: It is still scheduled for next year. It's your last 1341 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,040 Speaker 6: game playing at Ohio State, and then the very next 1342 01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 6: Saturday you could be in the Big Ten title game. Yes, 1343 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 6: Texas was in the news today. By the way, there 1344 01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 6: was the Athletic yesterday talking about negotiations on an extension. 1345 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 6: Texas announced the four year extension with head football coach 1346 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:36,320 Speaker 6: Steve Sarkeesian through twenty thirty and former Washington State quarterback 1347 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:39,040 Speaker 6: Cam Ward committed to the University of Miami. A couple 1348 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 6: of weeks ago. He had declared for the NFL Draft. 1349 01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:44,520 Speaker 6: Now he is going to use his last year of eligibility. 1350 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 6: A reminder in the NFL, Tomorrow's Pittsburgh at Buffalo playoff 1351 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 6: game was postponed a Monday due to the snowstorm in 1352 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 6: the city and there's a travel ban in that county tonight. 1353 01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:58,959 Speaker 6: Remember the original plan was tonight, Literally right now, any 1354 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 6: fan that wanted to get twenty bucks an hour go 1355 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 6: shovel snow out of the bill Stadium. And now literally 1356 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:08,080 Speaker 6: nobody can travel in town to do anything, and they've 1357 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 6: pushed the game back to Monday, four thirty pm Eastern 1358 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 6: time forecast for Buffalo then twenty degrees snow before the game, 1359 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 6: mostly but windy. You thought it was wendy at Kansas 1360 01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 6: City tonight, it certainly will be in Buffalo. If Buffalo 1361 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:25,919 Speaker 6: wins this weekend, it'll be Kansas City at Buffalo next weekend, 1362 01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 6: when it'll be about twenty degrees in windy all over again. 1363 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,080 Speaker 6: And for the Bills, wide receiver Gabe Davis is out 1364 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,240 Speaker 6: for this game with a knee injury, as his safety 1365 01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:37,200 Speaker 6: Taylor Rap with a calf injury. For Pittsburgh, of course, 1366 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:39,640 Speaker 6: TJ Watt out with his knee injury, but running back 1367 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 6: Najie Harris returned to full practice yesterday, and safety Minka 1368 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 6: Fitzpatrick said he will play. He's missed the last three 1369 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 6: games with the knee injury. The bad news for Pittsburgh 1370 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 6: is really not the weather, because they haven't had an 1371 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 6: offense in good weather this year. Pittsburgh with only thirteen 1372 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:58,280 Speaker 6: touchdown receptions all season thirteen. San Francisco had thirty three. 1373 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:01,719 Speaker 6: By comparison, Kansas. He won its home game against Miami 1374 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,880 Speaker 6: twenty six to seven. Rashi Rice eight catches, one hundred 1375 01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 6: and thirty yards in a touchdown Tyreek Hill backing kse 1376 01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 6: At a fifty three yard touchdown reception. Otherwise, he had 1377 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 6: four catches nine yards for the Dolphins Tonight, Raheem Mostered 1378 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 6: at running back was active, had eight carries thirty three yards. 1379 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,839 Speaker 6: Wide receiver Jalen Waddle had also battled injuries but was active. 1380 01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,519 Speaker 6: He had two catches. This is a Miami team that 1381 01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:28,639 Speaker 6: importantly tied for first in the AFC East, but they 1382 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 6: lost two times to Buffalo, so they were in the 1383 01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 6: cold on the road. Tonight. Temperature at kickoff was minus 1384 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:37,640 Speaker 6: four degrees. This is a Miami team that started the 1385 01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:42,000 Speaker 6: year five and one, defeated five non playoff teams, and 1386 01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 6: then went six and six the rest of the way. 1387 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:46,640 Speaker 6: Tonight's contest in case, by the way, one of the 1388 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 6: five coldest games in the history of the NFL. At Houston, 1389 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,879 Speaker 6: the Texans eliminated Cleveland forty five fourteen. It was seventeen 1390 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 6: fourteen late in the first half. 1391 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 7: CJ. 1392 01:09:56,040 --> 01:10:00,200 Speaker 6: Stroud three touchdown passes, a rookie playoff record, Nico Collins 1393 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:03,479 Speaker 6: catches ninety six yards in a TV Joe Flacco threw 1394 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 6: pick sixes on back to back drives in the third quarter. 1395 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 6: He was also sacked four times. 1396 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:08,839 Speaker 1: Today. 1397 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,680 Speaker 6: Remember, on December twenty fourth, Cleveland had just played at 1398 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,759 Speaker 6: Houston and beat them thirty six twenty two. Amari Cooper 1399 01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 6: had a monster game, but c J. Stroud did not 1400 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:20,839 Speaker 6: play that game due to a concussion. So the Texans 1401 01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,360 Speaker 6: could be playing at number one seed Baltimore next week 1402 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,400 Speaker 6: if there are no AFC upsets in this weekend. In 1403 01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 6: the postseason, Baltimore would be a challenge, not just because 1404 01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,479 Speaker 6: they're the one seed, not just because they were coming 1405 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 6: off a first round by or they would be the 1406 01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:37,920 Speaker 6: Ravens and they've had to cycle through running Backs are 1407 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,200 Speaker 6: the number one rushing team in the league, and Baltimore's 1408 01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 6: defense has allowed just sixteen and a half points a game, 1409 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:46,840 Speaker 6: best in the NFL. Baltimore has the most sacks in 1410 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:50,360 Speaker 6: the NFL this year with sixty. Philadelphia is playing Monday 1411 01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:53,040 Speaker 6: night at Tampa Bay could be raining. Wide receiver AJ 1412 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 6: Brown of the Eagles, with his knee injury, is out 1413 01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 6: for that game. The late NBA contest went to Utah 1414 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 6: over the Lakers one thirty two to one twenty five. 1415 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 6: Lakers record nineteen and twenty one. Milwaukee beat Golden State 1416 01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:09,240 Speaker 6: one twenty nine one eighteen, Warriors record eighteen and twenty one. 1417 01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:11,879 Speaker 6: And in college hoops Top ten, we had three upsets. 1418 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 6: TCU beat number two Houston sixty eight sixty seven Houston Cougar's. 1419 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 6: We were just mentioning on last weekend show they were 1420 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 6: the last of the undefeateds in college basketball this year. 1421 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 6: They're now fourteen and two, and it was Texas A 1422 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,919 Speaker 6: and M at home in overtime defeating number six Kentucky 1423 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 6: ninety seven ninety two, and at Washington State Cougar's over 1424 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 6: number eight Arizona seventy three to seventy. 1425 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:35,200 Speaker 2: Back to you thank you very much. Steve de Seger, 1426 01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday or Tours. Jason Martin 1427 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 2: broadcasting live from thee tyreck dot Com Studios. A lot, 1428 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 2: there's a lot to dive into, j Sebbi. You know, 1429 01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 2: we just talked Harbaugh. I think there was a report 1430 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 2: today that he will speak with the Los Angeles Chargers 1431 01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:56,400 Speaker 2: next week. First of all, whether it is the Chargers 1432 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:59,559 Speaker 2: or anything else, is there any real reason for you 1433 01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 2: to think, think for any of us to think that 1434 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:05,840 Speaker 2: he won't be in the NFL next year? Like, I 1435 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,280 Speaker 2: know that's kind of a random question, but yeah, go ahead, 1436 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 2: go ahead, go ahead. 1437 01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 1: No, I mean, it doesn't require much exposition. Just no, 1438 01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:17,439 Speaker 1: not really. If it doesn't happen, now, you stuck to 1439 01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:19,280 Speaker 1: wonder if it ever will. But there's not really any 1440 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 1: reason for it not to unless they're just not the 1441 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 1: right opportunity for him, and I think, I mean, the 1442 01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:26,639 Speaker 1: Chargers are the right fit. Now, you've also seen that 1443 01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:30,960 Speaker 1: report of other teams could potentially offer the opportunity for 1444 01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 1: him to go get McCarthy if he wanted McCarthy to 1445 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:39,679 Speaker 1: be his quarterback, that's been out there. If the Chargers 1446 01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:42,679 Speaker 1: offer him that job, if they're actually willing to pay 1447 01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:47,080 Speaker 1: the money, which they've said they are, then he'll take 1448 01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 1: that job. I can't imagine him turning the Chargers down, 1449 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 1: especially with his ties to that community from his days 1450 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:55,439 Speaker 1: at USD to just all the success he's had in 1451 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:57,800 Speaker 1: that state and how much coaching experience he has in 1452 01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,720 Speaker 1: that state as well. And you get that quarterback, I 1453 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 1: can't imagine you turned that down, and you look at 1454 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,840 Speaker 1: some of the other opportunities that are maybe out there. 1455 01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,799 Speaker 1: I think the Raiders are gonna go with Antonio Peers. 1456 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:12,720 Speaker 1: I know he interviewed here in Nashville today with the Titans, 1457 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:14,760 Speaker 1: but I think he's gonna be the Raiders head coach, 1458 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 1: not because of what Max Crosby said, but because I 1459 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:19,800 Speaker 1: think he's the right guy for the gig, and you 1460 01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 1: can see how hard they played for him. But I 1461 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 1: don't know what the other scenarios are that would make 1462 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 1: sense for Jim Harbaugh necessarily. But I think the Chargers, 1463 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:32,120 Speaker 1: I'm not go ahead and predict it right now. I 1464 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:35,160 Speaker 1: actually think they're gonna poney up. I think Carball is 1465 01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna be the next head coach with the Chargers. 1466 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 2: I do I have, you know, spoken quite a bit 1467 01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:45,360 Speaker 2: about this, the idea of them not spending money in 1468 01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 2: the past on headed coaches. I do think by the way, 1469 01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:52,080 Speaker 2: they weirdly today they interviewed Mike McDonald, who's not only 1470 01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:55,799 Speaker 2: the Ravens defensive coordinator, he was also formerly Michigan's defensive coordinator. 1471 01:13:55,840 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 2: So it's kind of a weird tie there. I listen, 1472 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 2: I'm not sourced on this. I don't have insight into 1473 01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:08,880 Speaker 2: the building. I do think though that I do think 1474 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 2: they kind of understand, like, especially by the way, with 1475 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,439 Speaker 2: the candidates that are available right, like this is a 1476 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 2: historic group of candidates when you talk about multiple Super 1477 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 2: Bowl winning coaches in Pete Carroll, and and and and 1478 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,640 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, and Pete Carroll indicated that he wants to 1479 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:29,519 Speaker 2: coach again. Obviously, Jim Harbaugh is a guy who coached 1480 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,720 Speaker 2: in a Super Bowl, and it's pretty well known that 1481 01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,640 Speaker 2: you have the best opening available. Plus Mike Vrabel, by 1482 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:37,479 Speaker 2: the way, who was you know, won a lot of games, 1483 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 2: gotten a number one seed. Like this is an unbelievable 1484 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:44,760 Speaker 2: coaching group, and it's like, I do think there is 1485 01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 2: something to them as an organization kind of understanding like 1486 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 2: we can't we can't go you know, a coordinator for 1487 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:57,479 Speaker 2: six million dollars a year when you know, when when 1488 01:14:57,920 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 2: everybody else is paying ten, twelve, fifteen, t twenty millions. 1489 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:03,559 Speaker 2: So we will see. I'm with you. I think that 1490 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 2: from Harbaugh's perspective, that has to be the job. I 1491 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:09,599 Speaker 2: will say, and I was thinking about this, is that, 1492 01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 2: you know, Washington, the commanders feel like they would kind 1493 01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:15,559 Speaker 2: of make sense. You know, obviously his brother's right up 1494 01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:18,519 Speaker 2: the road. You'd have the number two overall pick, which 1495 01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:20,960 Speaker 2: means that you kind of get your choice of quarterback. 1496 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:25,200 Speaker 2: But I think if and when he goes, and I 1497 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 2: think right now he's going to I would think that 1498 01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 2: it's the Chargers as well.

I will say 1518 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:44,599 Speaker 2: I do think Washington makes sense kind of that Northeast corridor. 1519 01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:49,800 Speaker 2: You start overs from scratch with a new quarterback. I 1520 01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 2: still believe Bill Belichick with Josh McDaniels, assuming that they 1521 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:57,880 Speaker 2: are a packaged deal. I don't think that's the worst 1522 01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 2: thing in the world. You know, two years ago, three 1523 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 2: seasons ago, you know, Josh McDaniels was in New England. 1524 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:09,759 Speaker 2: They won ten games and made the playoffs with with 1525 01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:13,960 Speaker 2: Mac Jones as a rookie quarterback. Now, they weren't insane offensively, 1526 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 2: but they weren't terrible either. I do want to throw 1527 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:20,439 Speaker 2: out two hypotheticals to you, and it isn't even necessarily 1528 01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:23,840 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, but we could talk about him. Do you think, 1529 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,759 Speaker 2: especially based on some of the comments that Jerry Jones made, 1530 01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:31,200 Speaker 2: if the Cowboys lose tomorrow at home to the Packers, 1531 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,840 Speaker 2: do you believe Mike McCarthy will potentially lose his or 1532 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,680 Speaker 2: now I don't say potentially, because anything is potential. Do 1533 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 2: you think Mike McCarthy will lose his job if the 1534 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:41,440 Speaker 2: Cowboys lose to the Packers. 1535 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 1: Tomorrow if it's embarrassing, maybe, but I don't get the 1536 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:50,840 Speaker 1: sense that he's on the hot seat. If they were 1537 01:17:50,880 --> 01:17:54,520 Speaker 1: to get absolutely just demolished, if it was an embarrassing 1538 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 1: kind of loss, then maybe maybe, Because I don't know 1539 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,519 Speaker 1: if he has the same level of love for McCarthy 1540 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 1: as he did for Jason Garrett. So I don't know 1541 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 1: how long he's gonna stand by him, meaning Jerry Jones 1542 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 1: in this case, and allow McCarthy to stay there when 1543 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,439 Speaker 1: there are other big names out there to be to 1544 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:18,080 Speaker 1: be gotten. When I was when we were talking about 1545 01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 1: Harball earlier and saying I have now predicted I believe 1546 01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 1: he'll be the next coach with the Chargers. I would 1547 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean, would a big swing like a Belichick make 1548 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,680 Speaker 1: sense in Dallas potentially, But the one that would make 1549 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 1: the most sense is to try and throw everything at 1550 01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 1: Harball if you believe in that Harball's a little bit younger. 1551 01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:41,639 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Dallas. I mean think about just the glitz 1552 01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 1: and the glamour of Harball there, and I mean it 1553 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:49,000 Speaker 1: fits Dallas in so many ways. Well, the bluster, the attitude, 1554 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 1: the controversy, all everything about it fits and just the 1555 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: coaching acum. 1556 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 2: Let me jump in on something else too, as far 1557 01:18:55,880 --> 01:19:00,479 Speaker 2: as Harbaugh potentially versus Belichick in Dallas, again, I'm with you. 1558 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:04,360 Speaker 2: And the thing about McCarthy is they have like weird losses, 1559 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,200 Speaker 2: but barely do they just get their brains beat in 1560 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:10,920 Speaker 2: unless the team is upper level San Francisco forty nine 1561 01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:15,080 Speaker 2: ers clearly superior Buffalo Bills, you know whatever. They don't 1562 01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 2: get blown out by bad teams. But what I would 1563 01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:20,280 Speaker 2: say about Harbaugh too, and this is gonna be sound 1564 01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:22,519 Speaker 2: kind of weird because obviously a lot of talk is 1565 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 2: is he gonna have player personal control or whatever? I 1566 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 2: think Jerry's public persona, the multiple interviews a week, he 1567 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:32,519 Speaker 2: has his own radio show, he does his own press conference. 1568 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:38,200 Speaker 2: I think it goes without saying that with Belichick could 1569 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:43,880 Speaker 2: be oil and water. You know, Belichick barely speaks himself, 1570 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 2: doesn't let his assistants talk one message out of the building, whatever, 1571 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah. I weirdly, I don't think Harball 1572 01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:56,160 Speaker 2: would be as annoyed or frustrated with that element of 1573 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:59,719 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones. Like that was a sticking point for Jimmy Johnson, 1574 01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,240 Speaker 2: it was sticking point for Bill Parcels. It would be, 1575 01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:05,200 Speaker 2: in my opinion, a sticking point for Bill Belichick. I 1576 01:20:05,280 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 2: just kinda think Harball's his own dude. He lets everything 1577 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:10,519 Speaker 2: kind of roll off his shoulders, you know. I mean 1578 01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 2: you look at how he handled everything this year at Michigan. 1579 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:15,240 Speaker 2: You can agree or disagree on the severity of it. 1580 01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 2: Did it, you know, involve help them win a championship? 1581 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:20,200 Speaker 2: You could debate that whatever. I just bring it up 1582 01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 2: because it all just rolled off his shoulders. And I 1583 01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 2: think if Jerry said something crazy in a press conference, 1584 01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:28,360 Speaker 2: or he talked about a player like I think Arbo 1585 01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:30,439 Speaker 2: would just be like, yeah, whatever. I don't know that 1586 01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 2: that part of it to me. With Jerry, I don't 1587 01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:35,880 Speaker 2: think is as big of a deal. Jerry kind of 1588 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 2: being his own public persona. 1589 01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 1: I think that makes sense. I mean, I definitely think 1590 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:44,919 Speaker 1: that that would not work very well with Belichick. Harball. 1591 01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:46,800 Speaker 1: I think would just kind of laugh it off and 1592 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:49,240 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, I'll I'll just coach the football team. 1593 01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,560 Speaker 1: And I mean there's going to be attention to him anyway, 1594 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 1: because he draws it in. But I don't think that 1595 01:20:55,200 --> 01:20:58,000 Speaker 1: he would be threatened by Jerry Jones talking. But I mean, 1596 01:20:58,040 --> 01:20:59,559 Speaker 1: I know you would have to be the right guy 1597 01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:03,600 Speaker 1: for that. I would have potentially mentioned Seattle for Belichick, 1598 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,360 Speaker 1: but I just think dan Quinn's gonna get that job. Yeah, 1599 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:08,559 Speaker 1: Like I've just kind of felt that way the whole time. 1600 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:12,360 Speaker 1: For whether that's the right call or not. That one 1601 01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:15,400 Speaker 1: just kind of that one kind of fits. The Washington 1602 01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:20,200 Speaker 1: one is interesting, I don't know. And they're gonna spend 1603 01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:24,240 Speaker 1: money too. New ownership. Yeah, rich guy, you know rich 1604 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 1: ownership group in general, this is your first hire. Well 1605 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:31,760 Speaker 1: you chew on that, I'm gonna ask you another team. 1606 01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 2: Another hypothetical. Okay, as I've heard I've heard this pick 1607 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,760 Speaker 2: up steam this week and I don't know if it's 1608 01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 2: only because one person said it and it's a good 1609 01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:46,080 Speaker 2: talking point, so why not talk about it, or whether 1610 01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 2: it actually is any real steam. Do you think if 1611 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 2: the Eagles get embarrassed on Monday Night that they could 1612 01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:55,880 Speaker 2: move off? Nick Sirianni, and I'll just lay out the 1613 01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 2: argument is obviously, as you have pointed out since August, Jay, 1614 01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:02,879 Speaker 2: you know, they lost two defense they lost two coordinators 1615 01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 2: from last year's team. Clearly were not the same team 1616 01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 2: this year clearly fell apart late. And I do think, 1617 01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:13,360 Speaker 2: like the Week eighteen loss to the Giants in the 1618 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,920 Speaker 2: manner in which it happened, like it's one thing, Okay, 1619 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 2: you know you're losing to the Cowboys and the forty 1620 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 2: nine ers and even the Seahawks, Okay, it's a weird 1621 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:25,479 Speaker 2: Monday night game, whatever, but you get embarrassed on the 1622 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:27,160 Speaker 2: final game of the season, Like Jason, I'll be honest, 1623 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 2: I was doing stuff around the house last week during 1624 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,599 Speaker 2: that second window, and when I saw the score of 1625 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:36,800 Speaker 2: the of the Giants Eagles game, I just assumed, for 1626 01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,479 Speaker 2: reasons that I didn't understand that the Eagles arresting their starters. 1627 01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,439 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, they just must not be playing their guys, 1628 01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 2: and it's like, oh no, they're playing their guys and 1629 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 2: Tyrod Taylor looks like vintage whoever you know, Peyton Manning 1630 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:53,640 Speaker 2: or Lamar Jackson or whatever. So I don't think it 1631 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 2: would happen, but it seemed to have picked up steam. 1632 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,679 Speaker 2: Is if you get embarrassed against a not very good 1633 01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 2: Buck team on Monday night after the way the season ended, 1634 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:05,240 Speaker 2: and by the way, Philly has kind of a short, 1635 01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:07,439 Speaker 2: short leash in some cases. You know, they got rid 1636 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:09,960 Speaker 2: of Peterson faster than some people thought they should got 1637 01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:13,439 Speaker 2: rid of ship Kelly in year three. Do you think 1638 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:15,839 Speaker 2: there's any chance that Nick Sirianni, if they get embarrassed, 1639 01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:16,760 Speaker 2: would be out of a job. 1640 01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it's definitely gone south, but there would have 1641 01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:23,479 Speaker 1: to be a lot of stuff behind the scenes that 1642 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:25,439 Speaker 1: we don't know about. And maybe those stories are going 1643 01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:27,599 Speaker 1: to be written, like maybe they're yet to be written, 1644 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:31,840 Speaker 1: but they're legit. I was a little skeptical going into 1645 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:33,519 Speaker 1: the year, as you know, and as you mentioned, with 1646 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:36,640 Speaker 1: the coordinators leaving, where was the magic really? Was it 1647 01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:41,320 Speaker 1: with Jonathan Gannon? Was it with certainly Stiching? And was 1648 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 1: he the engine that made that offense go well. I mean, 1649 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,800 Speaker 1: there's some cracks in the foundation. Don't have AJ Brown 1650 01:23:47,920 --> 01:23:50,760 Speaker 1: playing on Monday night. I got the Aj Brown full 1651 01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:53,679 Speaker 1: experience here in Nashville, and I saw when it started 1652 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: to turn how he began to act and react, and 1653 01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:00,000 Speaker 1: he's starting to do some of that stuff in philadelp 1654 01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:03,519 Speaker 1: now that things are not going as well. He's wiping 1655 01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:07,400 Speaker 1: all social media ties to the Eagles all of a sudden, 1656 01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:09,800 Speaker 1: and he's out of the game on Monday after not 1657 01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:12,080 Speaker 1: really missing much time at all since he got there, 1658 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 1: and he missed a good bit of time while he 1659 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 1: was here. Hurts doesn't look like the same player, and 1660 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:20,360 Speaker 1: he's been banged up this year. The defense is an embarrassment. 1661 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:24,120 Speaker 1: Like I mean, they've been absolutely terrible this year pretty 1662 01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:26,599 Speaker 1: much on all levels, the exception of just a couple 1663 01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 1: of guys. So it isn't good. But the question is 1664 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 1: is there a toxic environment or are they just having 1665 01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:36,920 Speaker 1: the kind of year that Super Bowl runner up often does. 1666 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:41,719 Speaker 1: And it would seem to me to be awfully quick 1667 01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 1: to jump off, Sirianni unless there's a lot that we 1668 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 1: don't know behind the scenes. That said, I'm not sure 1669 01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 1: Sirianni's that good and I have kind of felt this 1670 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:58,000 Speaker 1: way from the outset. So if they were to move 1671 01:24:58,080 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 1: off of him, then I would be looking for the 1672 01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 1: to indicate why this went so wrong, because I don't 1673 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:04,760 Speaker 1: think that you can do what he did last year 1674 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:07,599 Speaker 1: and then do what he did this year and conclude 1675 01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 1: that this year's guy is the real Nick Sirianni unless 1676 01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,720 Speaker 1: there's more than meets the eye that we don't know 1677 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:16,479 Speaker 1: that we would then maybe be privy to. 1678 01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:20,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the reason I bring up Philadelphia is and 1679 01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 2: this is something I did hear. Nick Wright was the 1680 01:25:22,520 --> 01:25:25,679 Speaker 2: first one to say. This is like that one Jason, 1681 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:27,880 Speaker 2: you know, you talk about it Bill Belichick landing spot 1682 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:30,120 Speaker 2: and I don't know if they would go there, but 1683 01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:37,200 Speaker 2: the quarterbacks basically set. The defense has so many dudes, 1684 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 2: and you know, the secondary needs some work. That's kind 1685 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 2: of Belichick's one of his areas of expertise, and they're 1686 01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:45,800 Speaker 2: obviously right there. And like that's the thing with Belichick 1687 01:25:45,840 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 2: and it it kind of goes without saying you don't 1688 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:50,559 Speaker 2: really need me to, you know, tell you is that 1689 01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:55,920 Speaker 2: if you hire Belichick, your window is essentially what three 1690 01:25:56,720 --> 01:26:00,439 Speaker 2: You know, if you're if everything breaks right, maybe five years, 1691 01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 2: but probably closer to three. So that would be the 1692 01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:05,840 Speaker 2: one that, in my opinion, like if it were to open, 1693 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:09,559 Speaker 2: I think it would actually be very good for both 1694 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 2: sides really quickly. We should probably at least reference and 1695 01:26:14,040 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 2: by the way, if you have anything on Belichick, feel 1696 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:17,880 Speaker 2: free to hop on in, but should at least reference 1697 01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:20,000 Speaker 2: the fact that there were two NFL games. We led 1698 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,720 Speaker 2: the show talking about both of them. Houston dominant win 1699 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:27,160 Speaker 2: over the Cleveland Browns forty five to fourteen, case with 1700 01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:30,320 Speaker 2: a dominant win over the Miami Dolphins twenty six to seven. 1701 01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:34,160 Speaker 2: Any if I just ask you biggest takeaway from either 1702 01:26:34,240 --> 01:26:35,479 Speaker 2: of these games, what would you say? 1703 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 1: It is? C J. Stroud, Sure, it's probably it. I mean, really, 1704 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:44,320 Speaker 1: I mean that's what it is. I mean, this was 1705 01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 1: his first opportunity, and he took advantage of it. And 1706 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,920 Speaker 1: he didn't take advantage of it against a bad defense. 1707 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 1: He took he took him at one of the best 1708 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:56,840 Speaker 1: defenses in the league, and he absolutely lifted them up 1709 01:26:56,880 --> 01:27:00,920 Speaker 1: in the first half. And Flacco kind of became Flacco 1710 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 1: at thirty nine. And it was just a rough day, 1711 01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:09,280 Speaker 1: and it was just a day where you saw the 1712 01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:12,200 Speaker 1: Texans coming like this Texans team, they don't look like 1713 01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:14,400 Speaker 1: a fluke. They look like they're gonna be heard from 1714 01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 1: for a while. This might be the last game they 1715 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:18,920 Speaker 1: win this year. But this team and the way that 1716 01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:23,760 Speaker 1: they're built, this nucleus Demiko Ryans, the future is incredibly 1717 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:27,640 Speaker 1: bright for the Houston Texans. I think they rose and 1718 01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 1: the Dolphins fell today. Those were the two biggest stories 1719 01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 1: to me. It's like the Dolphins had the hype coming 1720 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:35,799 Speaker 1: into the season, a lot of people love in Miami 1721 01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 1: going into the season. But it's the Houston Texans that 1722 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:43,240 Speaker 1: everybody thought was going to be an absolute joke because 1723 01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:47,759 Speaker 1: well they have been for years that we're now talking 1724 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 1: about that is still playing football. That to me, is 1725 01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway. Is just one opinion going into the 1726 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:58,479 Speaker 1: year and one coming out, both of them just being 1727 01:27:58,760 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 1: diametrically the opposite what I think a lot of people thought. 1728 01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:06,400 Speaker 2: Don't disagree on pretty much any of that. My only 1729 01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:13,200 Speaker 2: other real takeaway, by the way, Joe Flacco great story, 1730 01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:18,160 Speaker 2: but you know, I mean he kind of and you 1731 01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 2: know the crazy thing was that was not the game 1732 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,479 Speaker 2: where it was negative eight degrees or whatever. I mean 1733 01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:26,679 Speaker 2: that that was climate controlled whatever you would have hoped 1734 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:29,040 Speaker 2: that he would have. You know, he would have been 1735 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:30,680 Speaker 2: better there. But listen, I mean, you know, you go 1736 01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:33,960 Speaker 2: back really if you include the final two regular season 1737 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:37,559 Speaker 2: games that he played, you're talking about, you know, three 1738 01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 2: interceptions in those games, including two ironically against Houston in 1739 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:47,519 Speaker 2: a win. Two more interceptions today. Great story, but I 1740 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:50,559 Speaker 2: think we kind of saw why he was available, like 1741 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:53,800 Speaker 2: in early November, and the blue might be off that 1742 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 2: rose probably permanent. 1743 01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:58,679 Speaker 1: Well, I mean at his age and the last couple 1744 01:28:58,720 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 1: stops he had made, it just didn't work out. It's 1745 01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:03,760 Speaker 1: a great story, and I'm glad that he had this 1746 01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:06,320 Speaker 1: final act for himself. Like it's a cool way to 1747 01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 1: end your career. Yeah, I know, a couple of interceptions 1748 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:10,400 Speaker 1: in your final game, but you took a team to 1749 01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 1: the playoffs, had no business making it considering what they lost. 1750 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,519 Speaker 1: And I don't mean Watson as much as I mean 1751 01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:20,400 Speaker 1: losing Nick Chubb and just everything that you were dealing with. 1752 01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:24,200 Speaker 1: And you're supposed to be in this incredible division where 1753 01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,559 Speaker 1: everybody ends up on the cusp of the playoffs. At 1754 01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,280 Speaker 1: the end, everything breaks your way, but you end up 1755 01:29:30,320 --> 01:29:32,920 Speaker 1: with Flacco after Thanksgiving and if you're Joe Flacco, like 1756 01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:35,599 Speaker 1: he couldn't have even expected himself to play this well, 1757 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:38,160 Speaker 1: and he comes back and does. I think it's a 1758 01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 1: cool story that you can look back on and you 1759 01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: can kind of just put it in a box and say, 1760 01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:43,960 Speaker 1: hey man, that was a really that was fun. I'm 1761 01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:46,920 Speaker 1: glad we got to experience that. That was better for sports, 1762 01:29:47,360 --> 01:29:49,760 Speaker 1: having gotten to watch the Browns be interesting down to 1763 01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 1: stretch and we know what they're capable of with the 1764 01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:54,519 Speaker 1: rest of the talent on their roster, it'd be interesting 1765 01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 1: to see what they come back with and at the 1766 01:29:56,479 --> 01:29:58,799 Speaker 1: same time say yeah, we're putting it in a box, 1767 01:29:59,439 --> 01:30:01,280 Speaker 1: and we're going to put that box on the shelf 1768 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:02,680 Speaker 1: now and it's going to be in the antles of 1769 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:05,080 Speaker 1: history because I think this is the end of the 1770 01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:06,439 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco ride. 1771 01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:12,559 Speaker 2: I agree as well. The Houston Texans dominant win over 1772 01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:15,320 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns forty five to fourteen final score at 1773 01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:19,080 Speaker 2: NRG Stadium, and the Miami Dolphins did not look very 1774 01:30:19,080 --> 01:30:21,760 Speaker 2: good twenty six to seven win for the Kansas City 1775 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:24,880 Speaker 2: Chiefs at Arrowhead.

Now, Aaron, Aaron, Jason, we 1797 01:31:41,960 --> 01:31:45,320 Speaker 7: have the Dallas Cowboys home taking on Green Bay, and 1798 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:50,000 Speaker 7: with that being said, the home team rains supreme. Dallas 1799 01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:54,479 Speaker 7: is an overwhelming favorite. Seven points is the total on 1800 01:31:54,520 --> 01:31:57,000 Speaker 7: this one. Let's start us off, Aaron, how are you 1801 01:31:57,040 --> 01:31:59,559 Speaker 7: feeling with Dallas with seven points? 1802 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:02,960 Speaker 2: Two things one? In the last segment, I kind of 1803 01:32:02,960 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 2: said it, and I truly believe it is you criticized 1804 01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:08,800 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy for a lot of things. They have lost 1805 01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:13,880 Speaker 2: close games too bad teams, but they don't generally get embarrassed. 1806 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:15,880 Speaker 2: I don't think they'll be embarrassed, and I just think 1807 01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 2: when you look at green Bay, listen, great story, great season. 1808 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:24,120 Speaker 2: Jordan Love for the most part, exceeded my expectations, but 1809 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:26,960 Speaker 2: kind of feels like one of those just happy to 1810 01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:30,400 Speaker 2: be there young teams. Dallas. Of course, we know what's 1811 01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 2: at stake, and we know they're obviously really good at home, 1812 01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:35,200 Speaker 2: So to me, this isn't really that complicated. Do I 1813 01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:37,360 Speaker 2: think it could be closer than the points spread indicates. 1814 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,840 Speaker 2: Maybe I wouldn't bet it, but I do think Dallas wins. 1815 01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:46,120 Speaker 1: Completely agree on Jordan Love. I think now, like I said, 1816 01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:48,720 Speaker 1: we se going into the season, we were gonna give 1817 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:50,720 Speaker 1: him a chance to show us what he had and 1818 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:53,920 Speaker 1: he did and looks like the Packers got himself as 1819 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:57,599 Speaker 1: a guy I've heard him described. I think Robert Mays 1820 01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,920 Speaker 1: and Nate Tye called him a dude over the last 1821 01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:02,320 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Yep, pretty much. He is a dude. 1822 01:33:02,400 --> 01:33:06,479 Speaker 1: He is solid and very good. That offense is good 1823 01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:10,200 Speaker 1: enough and they're young, but they're good enough to win tomorrow. 1824 01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:14,040 Speaker 1: Problem is that defense is not. That's gonna be their 1825 01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:16,280 Speaker 1: Achilles heal on the road. I do not think that 1826 01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 1: Green Bay's defense is going to step into Dallas and 1827 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:21,960 Speaker 1: be much of a problem. I think Ceedee Lamb probably 1828 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,280 Speaker 1: is gonna have a big day and it's just gonna 1829 01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 1: put too much pressure on that offense against a big 1830 01:33:28,040 --> 01:33:30,760 Speaker 1: play defense in Dallas. Give me the Cowboys. 1831 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:32,960 Speaker 2: Very good, Patrick. What's our next game? 1832 01:33:33,160 --> 01:33:35,600 Speaker 7: Next one we got on the docket is actually the 1833 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:39,400 Speaker 7: Sunday night football game. It's gonna be the Los Angeles 1834 01:33:39,479 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 7: Rams taking on the Detroit Lions. Lions are in fact 1835 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:46,920 Speaker 7: the home team since they won the NFC North, and 1836 01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 7: yet again, the home team reigns supreme. On the favorites 1837 01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:53,880 Speaker 7: right here, not an overwhelming but the Deroit Lions are 1838 01:33:54,160 --> 01:33:58,000 Speaker 7: three point favorites. Jason take it away. Are you believer 1839 01:33:58,280 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 7: with the Lions with three points here? 1840 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm a believer. I don't know if that means they're 1841 01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:05,000 Speaker 1: gonna win the game or not. I have been torn 1842 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:06,920 Speaker 1: on this one just because at first I can't wait 1843 01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:10,240 Speaker 1: to see this, like I not just because of the storylines, 1844 01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 1: the Jared Goff revenge game, the Matthew Stafford revenge game, 1845 01:34:13,920 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 1: all of that, but just it should be a great matchup. 1846 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:19,920 Speaker 1: There's a lot of talent on both sides. Offense should 1847 01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:23,840 Speaker 1: be really fun to watch. I don't know. This feels 1848 01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:25,599 Speaker 1: like it comes down to the game where the team 1849 01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:28,360 Speaker 1: that makes the fewest mistakes is gonna win. Somebody's gonna 1850 01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:30,040 Speaker 1: make a mistake late in this game and it's gonna 1851 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:33,519 Speaker 1: cost their team, and I am I gonna go with 1852 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:35,880 Speaker 1: my gut here. I would like to see the Lion's 1853 01:34:35,920 --> 01:34:37,519 Speaker 1: been a whole dagon thing. I think that'd be a 1854 01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:41,559 Speaker 1: lot of fun. Golf has a lot of pressure on him, 1855 01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 1: more so than Stafford does. Here Goff wants this one. 1856 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:48,040 Speaker 1: Is he gonna grip too hard and make the mistake 1857 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:51,200 Speaker 1: in the end. My gut tells me the Rams are 1858 01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:53,360 Speaker 1: gonna win. I think the Rams are gonna come on 1859 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:55,360 Speaker 1: the road and win this game, because there's just so 1860 01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:58,920 Speaker 1: much going into this and Stafford going back into that 1861 01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:02,840 Speaker 1: building that he he knows that building pretty dagon well himself. 1862 01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:05,120 Speaker 1: I just think the Rams are gonna win the game. 1863 01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:07,840 Speaker 1: I do. I won't be upset either way. I like 1864 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:09,880 Speaker 1: both teams, but I think the Rams are actually gonna 1865 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:10,519 Speaker 1: win it out right. 1866 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,400 Speaker 2: So I know the Rams are playing really good football. 1867 01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:17,120 Speaker 2: But I was thinking about this this week. What is 1868 01:35:17,160 --> 01:35:19,800 Speaker 2: their best win during the stretch. Here here is the 1869 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:25,560 Speaker 2: schedule that they played to improve, uh, to improve to 1870 01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:27,599 Speaker 2: make the run that they did to get into the playoffs. 1871 01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:31,600 Speaker 2: Finish ten and seven overall. Beat the Seahawks one at Arizona, 1872 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,080 Speaker 2: beat the Browns now immediately it was the Browns with 1873 01:35:34,160 --> 01:35:37,479 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco, but still the Browns. Nonetheless, they lose at 1874 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:40,000 Speaker 2: Baltimore thirty seven to thirty one, so that was obviously 1875 01:35:40,160 --> 01:35:42,120 Speaker 2: a close, competitive game against the number one seed in 1876 01:35:42,120 --> 01:35:44,640 Speaker 2: the AFC. Then they closed the season with they win 1877 01:35:44,680 --> 01:35:46,640 Speaker 2: against the Commanders, they win against the Saints, the win 1878 01:35:46,680 --> 01:35:48,559 Speaker 2: against the Giants, and they went against the San Francisco 1879 01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,600 Speaker 2: forty nine ers when they were resting their starters. So 1880 01:35:50,600 --> 01:35:54,599 Speaker 2: I'll say that again. Seahawks, Cardinals, Browns, Commanders, Saints, Giants, 1881 01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:59,680 Speaker 2: forty nine ers without their starters, I just don't like. 1882 01:36:00,439 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 2: I think they're playing really good football. I think Sean 1883 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,479 Speaker 2: McVay has gotten the most out of this team. I'm 1884 01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:09,520 Speaker 2: just not sold that like the competition has been that incredible. 1885 01:36:09,560 --> 01:36:12,360 Speaker 2: And the one thing I will say about Detroit as well, 1886 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 2: obviously as you just said Jason, and really the points 1887 01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:18,240 Speaker 2: spread reflects it is a lot of people obviously think 1888 01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:22,759 Speaker 2: the Rams can go in and win. It does feel 1889 01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:26,840 Speaker 2: like Dan Campbell, for whatever criticisms that people have of him, 1890 01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:30,320 Speaker 2: when people really don't think that they're gonna show up 1891 01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 2: ready to play or start to doubt them, that's generally 1892 01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:35,240 Speaker 2: when they play their best football. I mean, even go 1893 01:36:35,240 --> 01:36:36,960 Speaker 2: back to the game in Dallas a few weeks ago 1894 01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:39,639 Speaker 2: that we were on air for that. You know, frankly, 1895 01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 2: a victory was kind of stolen from them going into 1896 01:36:42,080 --> 01:36:44,280 Speaker 2: that game. Dallas had lost two in a row and 1897 01:36:44,479 --> 01:36:46,320 Speaker 2: Dallas was returning home and he kind of just sit 1898 01:36:46,320 --> 01:36:48,800 Speaker 2: there and say, Okay, Dallas is gonna bounce back get 1899 01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:51,880 Speaker 2: a nice win. Detroit should have won that game last 1900 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:55,639 Speaker 2: year Week eighteen beat green Bay to keep Green Bay 1901 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:57,920 Speaker 2: out of the playoffs. So I think we get a 1902 01:36:57,960 --> 01:37:02,720 Speaker 2: good performance from from there are certainly obviously everybody has 1903 01:37:02,760 --> 01:37:05,760 Speaker 2: plenty to play for, but there's certainly a lot of 1904 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:09,120 Speaker 2: frustration about the way that the seeding went late in 1905 01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:11,400 Speaker 2: the way things could have been. So I think we 1906 01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 2: get the best effort from the Lions. So I will 1907 01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:16,920 Speaker 2: take the Lions to win against the Rams. Tell you what, 1908 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:20,439 Speaker 2: Jason will come back. We'll preview the two Monday games 1909 01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:22,479 Speaker 2: because it's the Stagers. But to tell you, we do 1910 01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:25,160 Speaker 2: have a second Monday game, So let's toss it over 1911 01:37:25,200 --> 01:37:27,599 Speaker 2: the news desk to saga. The floor is yours. 1912 01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:29,880 Speaker 6: I would add about the Rams here. They at the 1913 01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:32,120 Speaker 6: bye week in November, they were three and six. They've 1914 01:37:32,120 --> 01:37:34,880 Speaker 6: only lost one game since, a seven to one finish 1915 01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,160 Speaker 6: to the season. What was the one loss and why 1916 01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:40,280 Speaker 6: did they lose? It was the overtime at Baltimore and 1917 01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:43,040 Speaker 6: they lost on a punt return in ot The kicking 1918 01:37:43,080 --> 01:37:46,680 Speaker 6: game has been horrendous for the Rams this year, especially 1919 01:37:46,720 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 6: by the standard of a playoff team. They've missed more 1920 01:37:49,920 --> 01:37:52,720 Speaker 6: kicks than any other team in the league. Just on 1921 01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:55,439 Speaker 6: field goals, they've missed eleven of those, plus the extra 1922 01:37:55,479 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 6: point misses, rams from fifty yards and beyond on field 1923 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:02,679 Speaker 6: goal attempts just five for ten, second worst in punting 1924 01:38:02,960 --> 01:38:07,519 Speaker 6: net average this year. That is something that really really 1925 01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:09,960 Speaker 6: raises an eyebrow if you get to a playoff game, 1926 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:11,840 Speaker 6: which tends to be a close game, and it's a 1927 01:38:11,920 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 6: road game and it's gonna be allowed game. As for 1928 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:17,080 Speaker 6: the Eagles, I'm glad you brought up in the previous 1929 01:38:17,080 --> 01:38:20,799 Speaker 6: segment how horrendous that defense has been. Philadelphia has allowed 1930 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:24,320 Speaker 6: thirty five touchdown passes this year, second worst in the league. 1931 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:27,639 Speaker 6: The Eagles d only has nine interceptions the whole year, 1932 01:38:27,720 --> 01:38:30,639 Speaker 6: and allowing an average of over two hundred and fifty 1933 01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:33,880 Speaker 6: yards passing a game. Philadelphia has given up twenty five 1934 01:38:33,920 --> 01:38:36,600 Speaker 6: points again that per game, that's third. 1935 01:38:36,360 --> 01:38:37,080 Speaker 2: Worst in the league. 1936 01:38:37,120 --> 01:38:39,880 Speaker 6: The only good thing with this matchup is they're facing 1937 01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:41,760 Speaker 6: the Bucks, who only get a home game because of 1938 01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:44,720 Speaker 6: that division. The Bucks are the worst rushing team in 1939 01:38:44,760 --> 01:38:48,960 Speaker 6: the league. Interesting matchup, but not in good ways. Philadelphia 1940 01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,599 Speaker 6: wide receiver AJ Brown with his knee injury, is out 1941 01:38:51,600 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 6: for Monday night at Tampa Bay, and we mentioned earlier 1942 01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:57,559 Speaker 6: the weather. It's gonna be nothing like the cold we're 1943 01:38:57,600 --> 01:39:01,000 Speaker 6: seeing this weekend in Kansas City or Buffalo. Yes, seventy 1944 01:39:01,040 --> 01:39:03,240 Speaker 6: degrees in Tampa that day, but a chance of rain 1945 01:39:03,320 --> 01:39:07,080 Speaker 6: there Monday day and night. Yeah, Tomorrow's Pittsburgh at Buffalo 1946 01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:10,400 Speaker 6: game was postponed Monday due to the snowstorm in the city, 1947 01:39:10,439 --> 01:39:13,400 Speaker 6: and there's a travel ban in that county tonight, So 1948 01:39:13,439 --> 01:39:15,880 Speaker 6: it'll start at four to thirty pm Eastern Time on Monday. 1949 01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:19,240 Speaker 6: Forecast for Buffalo twenty degrees, snow before the game, mostly 1950 01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:23,519 Speaker 6: but definitely windy. If Buffalo wins, it'll be Kansas City 1951 01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:26,240 Speaker 6: at Buffalo the next weekend and be about twenty degrees 1952 01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:29,080 Speaker 6: and windy all over again. The Chiefs had a kickoff 1953 01:39:29,120 --> 01:39:33,599 Speaker 6: temperature of minus four degrees tonight. Kansas City eliminated Miami 1954 01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 6: twenty six to seven. Harrison Butker four for four on 1955 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:40,040 Speaker 6: field goals, all from inside thirty three yards. Rashi Rice 1956 01:39:40,120 --> 01:39:42,639 Speaker 6: eight catches one hundred and thirty yards and a score. 1957 01:39:43,080 --> 01:39:46,720 Speaker 6: Isaiah Picheco twenty four carries eighty nine yards rushing and 1958 01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:48,519 Speaker 6: a touchdown. By the way. At one point, the wind 1959 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,720 Speaker 6: shill was at minus twenty seven. Miami, the team that 1960 01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:55,760 Speaker 6: tied for the league lead most touchdowns sixty one this year. 1961 01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:58,759 Speaker 6: They had one touchdown tonight, the long pass to Tyreek 1962 01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:02,000 Speaker 6: Hill side from that fifty three yard TV Hill had 1963 01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 6: four catches for nine yards. So a Miami team that 1964 01:40:05,560 --> 01:40:08,519 Speaker 6: started the season five and one beating five non playoff 1965 01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:11,599 Speaker 6: teams goes six and six the rest of the way. 1966 01:40:12,120 --> 01:40:15,080 Speaker 6: Houston Texans started wild Card weekend with the home win, 1967 01:40:15,200 --> 01:40:18,639 Speaker 6: eliminating Cleveland forty five fourteen, as Joe Flacco threw pick 1968 01:40:18,720 --> 01:40:20,960 Speaker 6: sixes on back to back drives in the third quarter. 1969 01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:23,439 Speaker 6: He was sacked four times today it was just the 1970 01:40:23,479 --> 01:40:26,679 Speaker 6: seventeen to fourteen league. Late first half, Needless to say, 1971 01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:29,760 Speaker 6: the Texans pulled away and c J. Stroud had three 1972 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:34,240 Speaker 6: touchdown passes rookie playoff record. The Browns had won four straight, 1973 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:37,599 Speaker 6: including at Houston, until a loss last week. But that 1974 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:41,000 Speaker 6: win at Houston right before Christmas, well, CJ. Stroud wasn't 1975 01:40:41,040 --> 01:40:44,639 Speaker 6: playing due to the concussion. As for college hoops upsets 1976 01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:47,799 Speaker 6: in the top ten, TCU edged number two ranked Houston 1977 01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:50,400 Speaker 6: by a point, Texas A and M in overtime beat 1978 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:55,240 Speaker 6: number six Kentucky and Arizona. Number eight ranked lost seventy 1979 01:40:55,240 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 6: three to seventy at Washington State. The late NHL game 1980 01:40:58,160 --> 01:41:01,280 Speaker 6: went to Calgary, winning three to one at Vegas. In 1981 01:41:01,320 --> 01:41:03,600 Speaker 6: the NBA, the late game went to Utah, winners of 1982 01:41:03,680 --> 01:41:06,439 Speaker 6: five straight, beat the Lakers one thirty two one twenty five. 1983 01:41:06,560 --> 01:41:09,599 Speaker 6: Lebron James was out with an ankle injury.

Jason Martin broadcasting 2000 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:03,719 Speaker 2: from the Tireck dot Com Studios. Let's get back to it, Loret, 2001 01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:06,320 Speaker 2: I appreciate the music, Pat, What is the next game 2002 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:07,120 Speaker 2: we're gonna preview? 2003 01:42:07,360 --> 01:42:07,760 Speaker 1: All right? 2004 01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,840 Speaker 7: Next one is Sunday at one thirty Pacific time. We 2005 01:42:10,880 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 7: have the Pittsburgh Monday. Oh Monday, My bad Monday was 2006 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:18,400 Speaker 7: thinking behind Monday. We got the Pittsburg Steelers taking on 2007 01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:21,720 Speaker 7: the Buffalo Bills in what was supposed to be for tomorrow. 2008 01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:25,160 Speaker 7: And stop me if you've heard this before, guys, the 2009 01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:28,639 Speaker 7: home team reigns supreme. And if you thought the seven 2010 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:31,240 Speaker 7: point favorites with one of the other games earlier was 2011 01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:35,439 Speaker 7: a lot, this one is even bigger. The Buffalo Bills 2012 01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:40,559 Speaker 7: are ten point favorite at home. Aaron, what do you think? 2013 01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:43,720 Speaker 2: Do you like that? Mods? Real quick? Jason, do you 2014 01:42:43,840 --> 01:42:46,320 Speaker 2: have any like I saw a lot of pushback about 2015 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,720 Speaker 2: the four to thirty start time. I don't really know 2016 01:42:48,760 --> 01:42:52,519 Speaker 2: what else you can do because obviously tonight proved that 2017 01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:55,840 Speaker 2: you know, they're willing to play in bad weather, But 2018 01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:58,720 Speaker 2: I mean when it's literally a travel advisory, as the 2019 01:42:58,760 --> 01:43:02,400 Speaker 2: SEGER has told us, like, you can't play that game tomorrow. 2020 01:43:02,479 --> 01:43:04,960 Speaker 2: Is it safe for people to go to the game? Travel? 2021 01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:06,960 Speaker 2: It's not about sitting in the stands and cold and 2022 01:43:06,960 --> 01:43:10,719 Speaker 2: windshield it's about driving, you know, under feet of snow. 2023 01:43:11,360 --> 01:43:13,840 Speaker 2: But I saw a lot of pushback, like I don't 2024 01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:15,479 Speaker 2: really know what the NFL is supposed to do. 2025 01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 1: Well, you mean pushback that they actually moved the game. Yeah, 2026 01:43:20,280 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean I'm with you. I'm a 2027 01:43:24,040 --> 01:43:27,080 Speaker 1: little baffled by that. Is it safe for people to 2028 01:43:27,120 --> 01:43:29,160 Speaker 1: be driving to try and make it to a playoff game? 2029 01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:33,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely not. It was super cold in Kansas City, but 2030 01:43:33,680 --> 01:43:35,760 Speaker 1: that's a little bit of a different animal. Some thought 2031 01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:37,719 Speaker 1: they should have tried to move that game. I saw 2032 01:43:37,800 --> 01:43:41,280 Speaker 1: some fans wishing they would have tried. But this one's worse. 2033 01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:43,280 Speaker 1: This one, I mean, this one's far worse. When they 2034 01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:46,080 Speaker 1: showed the shots, they couldn't have played this game, and 2035 01:43:46,120 --> 01:43:48,080 Speaker 1: if they had played it, we couldn't have seen it. 2036 01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:51,040 Speaker 1: Like everything, Yeah, this one had to be moved. I 2037 01:43:51,040 --> 01:43:53,439 Speaker 1: don't know what people are saying. People people are wrong 2038 01:43:53,720 --> 01:43:54,400 Speaker 1: in this case. 2039 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:56,280 Speaker 2: I know you're not on social media as much, but 2040 01:43:56,320 --> 01:43:59,920 Speaker 2: surprise surprise. People were getting angry over nothing, by the way, 2041 01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:04,080 Speaker 2: really quickly. Buffalo's winning this game, and I'm still not 2042 01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:06,479 Speaker 2: sold that. I totally believe that they have made the 2043 01:44:06,479 --> 01:44:09,600 Speaker 2: complete three sixty transformation and are going to you know, 2044 01:44:09,640 --> 01:44:11,840 Speaker 2: blitz through these playoffs the way they did to end 2045 01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:14,040 Speaker 2: the regular season. But I think they win this game 2046 01:44:14,080 --> 01:44:14,920 Speaker 2: pretty convincingly. 2047 01:44:15,280 --> 01:44:16,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to be convincing or not, 2048 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,080 Speaker 1: because it's gonna be seventeen degrees and we don't know 2049 01:44:19,280 --> 01:44:21,400 Speaker 1: very true what the conditions are going to look like. 2050 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:23,760 Speaker 1: So it could be a slog, it could be a 2051 01:44:23,800 --> 01:44:27,200 Speaker 1: slot fest, it could be a lot of turnovers, and 2052 01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:30,280 Speaker 1: both teams have a tendency to do weird things, So 2053 01:44:30,360 --> 01:44:32,799 Speaker 1: I think this one's probably going to be sneaky close, 2054 01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:36,600 Speaker 1: and probably a lot closer than Bills fans are going 2055 01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:39,160 Speaker 1: to want it to be. But I'm I'm kind of 2056 01:44:39,200 --> 01:44:40,920 Speaker 1: rotting with the Bills right now. I think the Bills 2057 01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:42,519 Speaker 1: will win, too, I just don't know it's going to 2058 01:44:42,560 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 1: be that convincing. I don't think either team and the 2059 01:44:45,360 --> 01:44:47,080 Speaker 1: elements that they're going to be playing in is just 2060 01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:48,639 Speaker 1: going to run away from the other. 2061 01:44:48,520 --> 01:44:52,880 Speaker 2: One totally fair, uh, maybe the four thirty Eastern start 2062 01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:55,600 Speaker 2: will help a little bit as far as cold, and 2063 01:44:55,640 --> 01:44:58,640 Speaker 2: maybe we'll get a little sunshine, although I'm looking at 2064 01:44:58,640 --> 01:45:01,439 Speaker 2: the forecast and it's supposed to still be snowing at 2065 01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:05,400 Speaker 2: about four thirty Eastern time on Monday. Pat final game, 2066 01:45:05,439 --> 01:45:07,479 Speaker 2: go ahead, the floor's here's my friend, all. 2067 01:45:07,439 --> 01:45:11,320 Speaker 7: Right, last one of Monday, we have the Philadelphia Eagles 2068 01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:14,400 Speaker 7: taking on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tampa Bay is home 2069 01:45:14,760 --> 01:45:18,800 Speaker 7: and here's a surprise, guys, the home team does not 2070 01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:21,640 Speaker 7: mean the favorite in this last and final one. The 2071 01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:25,439 Speaker 7: Philadelphia Eagles on the road are actually the favorites here. 2072 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:27,800 Speaker 7: The favorite total, though, is three points. They are only 2073 01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,920 Speaker 7: three point favorites on this one. Jason, take it away, man, 2074 01:45:31,120 --> 01:45:31,880 Speaker 7: what do you feel? 2075 01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:34,720 Speaker 1: This one's tough because you don't have Aj Brown with 2076 01:45:34,760 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 1: the Eagles, and last I checked, Baker Mayfield is questionable 2077 01:45:39,080 --> 01:45:43,679 Speaker 1: with two separate injuries sustained in that atrocious performance where 2078 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,519 Speaker 1: they somehow still won the game last week scoring six points. 2079 01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,040 Speaker 1: I think, I mean the Eagles. I think the Eagles 2080 01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:52,640 Speaker 1: are still going to win this game. I do. I 2081 01:45:52,640 --> 01:45:54,360 Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna being kind of a blowout. The 2082 01:45:54,400 --> 01:45:56,560 Speaker 1: Eagles are just not firing on all cylinders. But I 2083 01:45:56,560 --> 01:45:59,280 Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna come to an end here, especially 2084 01:45:59,360 --> 01:46:01,559 Speaker 1: if Baker's banged up. If you can't go, it's not 2085 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:03,240 Speaker 1: going to be a very fun watch, I don't think. 2086 01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:07,200 Speaker 1: But uh, Tampa Bay's defense will will show up. I 2087 01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:08,840 Speaker 1: just think there's gonna be a little bit too much 2088 01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:11,280 Speaker 1: from the Eagles. So I think Philadelphia will advance here. 2089 01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:15,000 Speaker 2: I actually disagree. I mean, I know Baker's banged up. 2090 01:46:15,120 --> 01:46:17,080 Speaker 2: I think as long as Baker plays, I think they win. 2091 01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:19,880 Speaker 2: I just don't think. I think there's just something not 2092 01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:21,720 Speaker 2: right with Philly, and I don't know if it's a 2093 01:46:21,760 --> 01:46:24,440 Speaker 2: locker room. I don't know, if they don't believe in Sirianni. Obviously, 2094 01:46:24,560 --> 01:46:27,960 Speaker 2: some of his coaching decisions have backfired, including letting Matt 2095 01:46:27,960 --> 01:46:31,519 Speaker 2: Patricia call the defense. I just look at this team. 2096 01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:36,000 Speaker 2: I don't I don't see it. I think sometimes, you know, Matt. 2097 01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:39,320 Speaker 1: Patricia is is a good reason to pick against. 2098 01:46:38,000 --> 01:46:42,479 Speaker 2: The Yeah, So I don't know, man, you know, it's 2099 01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:44,479 Speaker 2: it's one of those like like, I think last week 2100 01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:46,200 Speaker 2: was the week, right, I mean, by the way, they 2101 01:46:46,200 --> 01:46:49,479 Speaker 2: had lost to Arizona the week before, and so you 2102 01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:51,479 Speaker 2: sit there and say, Okay, come on now, like the 2103 01:46:51,560 --> 01:46:54,040 Speaker 2: division is sort of kind of at stake here, you 2104 01:46:54,080 --> 01:46:56,880 Speaker 2: could potentially, you know, if things break your way, if 2105 01:46:56,960 --> 01:47:01,240 Speaker 2: Dallas loses whatever, and they got punked by the New 2106 01:47:01,280 --> 01:47:04,439 Speaker 2: York Football Giants. So I think the season's over, and 2107 01:47:04,479 --> 01:47:07,360 Speaker 2: then I think the conversations about Sirianni begin. I have 2108 01:47:07,479 --> 01:47:11,280 Speaker 2: no idea whether Philadelphia really would move off of them, 2109 01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:13,439 Speaker 2: but I don't think they win this game, especially on 2110 01:47:13,479 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 2: the road to Seger mentioned earlier the weather might not 2111 01:47:16,640 --> 01:47:20,160 Speaker 2: be great, which I guess in theory probably would favor 2112 01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 2: the Eagles. But I'm gonna take Tampa Bay to win 2113 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:26,000 Speaker 2: this game. Tell you what, Jason, we'll come back. We 2114 01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:31,120 Speaker 2: will wrap the show. That's next Fox Sports Radio. Welcome 2115 01:47:31,120 --> 01:47:41,040 Speaker 2: back everybody, Fox Sports Radio.

Sharon just 2119 01:47:55,600 --> 01:47:58,439 Speaker 2: tweeted in call it of my local sports talk radio 2120 01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:00,680 Speaker 2: station was ticked off, said it it wasn't fair to 2121 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:03,639 Speaker 2: change the game day because people had made bets on 2122 01:48:03,680 --> 01:48:06,760 Speaker 2: the game I'll take a human life over the game. 2123 01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:14,880 Speaker 2: I think most sports books the bets still stand if 2124 01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:18,680 Speaker 2: if the game is played on the same weekend, so 2125 01:48:18,720 --> 01:48:20,799 Speaker 2: like if the game gets moved from Sunday to Monday, 2126 01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:23,640 Speaker 2: that most of them are still the same. But we 2127 01:48:23,720 --> 01:48:27,920 Speaker 2: will see what happens there real quick, Jays. We haven't 2128 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:30,080 Speaker 2: you know, in the grand scheme of things, it's not 2129 01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:32,439 Speaker 2: that important, but you know, since it kind of broke 2130 01:48:32,560 --> 01:48:34,240 Speaker 2: during the show, we'll figure out. Just touch on it 2131 01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:37,559 Speaker 2: real quick. What do you think of? By the way, 2132 01:48:37,560 --> 01:48:40,120 Speaker 2: make sure to down everybody download the podcast. We talked everything. 2133 01:48:40,160 --> 01:48:45,080 Speaker 2: We talked KC, we talked Cleveland, Houston, we talked some 2134 01:48:45,120 --> 01:48:49,160 Speaker 2: of the college stuff, Saban retiring to bo Er, Jim Harbaugh. 2135 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:51,599 Speaker 2: We obviously previewed the four games over the next two days. 2136 01:48:52,280 --> 01:48:55,040 Speaker 2: One thing that did break during our show, Ryan Grubbed, 2137 01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:59,080 Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator of Washington, the Washington Huskies, who are 2138 01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:02,040 Speaker 2: obviously the national runner up, basically tweeted out a thank 2139 01:49:02,080 --> 01:49:06,080 Speaker 2: you to Washington fans, insinuating that he will not be 2140 01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:10,600 Speaker 2: the next head coach. It's hard to say because we 2141 01:49:10,680 --> 01:49:16,640 Speaker 2: don't know who Washington has in line. I don't know 2142 01:49:16,720 --> 01:49:19,200 Speaker 2: that I like the idea. I just think and listen. 2143 01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:22,680 Speaker 2: I know Washington is a great job in a you know, 2144 01:49:23,320 --> 01:49:26,200 Speaker 2: a power to conference. You know, we're basically you want 2145 01:49:26,200 --> 01:49:28,120 Speaker 2: to be in the Big ten or the SEC going forward. 2146 01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:30,920 Speaker 2: And they're there and they're good, and they've had many 2147 01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:34,760 Speaker 2: different eras of success. I know you can probably bring 2148 01:49:34,760 --> 01:49:37,920 Speaker 2: in a sitting head coach from somewhere else. I just 2149 01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 2: feel like, you keep this thing going, keep that locker 2150 01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:44,320 Speaker 2: room together. I don't love the idea of going out 2151 01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:46,160 Speaker 2: of house without knowing who it is. But let's assume 2152 01:49:46,200 --> 01:49:48,439 Speaker 2: it's not a super big name that everyone is universally 2153 01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:51,200 Speaker 2: gonna agree is the greatest thing on earth. I just don't. 2154 01:49:51,320 --> 01:49:53,439 Speaker 2: I don't like the idea. I really don't of moving 2155 01:49:53,439 --> 01:49:54,080 Speaker 2: off Ryan Grum. 2156 01:49:54,760 --> 01:49:57,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't either, because I think that if it 2157 01:49:57,400 --> 01:50:00,599 Speaker 1: didn't work out with Ryan Grubb, I don't think Washington 2158 01:50:00,640 --> 01:50:03,040 Speaker 1: fans would be that disappointed. So I think that they 2159 01:50:03,080 --> 01:50:06,320 Speaker 1: believe he had earned the opportunity and they would have 2160 01:50:06,360 --> 01:50:09,880 Speaker 1: been really excited if you've given him the gig. And 2161 01:50:09,920 --> 01:50:11,720 Speaker 1: he says in his statement it would have been a 2162 01:50:11,800 --> 01:50:14,439 Speaker 1: dream to stay here and fight. I showed up every 2163 01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:18,439 Speaker 1: day early though I wanted to be I will not 2164 01:50:18,560 --> 01:50:21,000 Speaker 1: be the next head coach at the University of Washington. 2165 01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:25,240 Speaker 1: So if it's going to be Lance Lighthold, if it's 2166 01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:27,240 Speaker 1: going to be Jed Fish, which is the other name 2167 01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:31,080 Speaker 1: that's out there that you've seen mentioned, I did see 2168 01:50:31,080 --> 01:50:33,120 Speaker 1: a comment. I was kind of looking to see what 2169 01:50:33,200 --> 01:50:36,120 Speaker 1: Washington fans had to say in reaction to a few 2170 01:50:36,160 --> 01:50:38,800 Speaker 1: of these articles, and some have said that. I guess 2171 01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:41,200 Speaker 1: local radio in Washington has been saying that the university 2172 01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:45,120 Speaker 1: did not want a first time head coach. And we'll 2173 01:50:45,160 --> 01:50:50,479 Speaker 1: see the only thing if you get it wrong and 2174 01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:53,040 Speaker 1: you let Grub go, and Grub let's say Grub does 2175 01:50:53,080 --> 01:50:56,400 Speaker 1: go to Alabama's ThEC and the offense is just awesome 2176 01:50:57,080 --> 01:50:59,439 Speaker 1: over the next few years, which it certainly could be 2177 01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 1: with both him and de Boer there and Washington struggles, 2178 01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:07,360 Speaker 1: then that's going to really upset Washington alumni. You're going 2179 01:51:07,479 --> 01:51:09,600 Speaker 1: into the Big ten, and I guess that's why you 2180 01:51:09,600 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 1: don't want a first time head coach. But again, this 2181 01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:14,479 Speaker 1: is a guy that I think a lot of people 2182 01:51:14,720 --> 01:51:19,200 Speaker 1: credit for some of the success that they've seen, and 2183 01:51:19,280 --> 01:51:22,960 Speaker 1: they wanted this and not going with their person and 2184 01:51:23,040 --> 01:51:25,120 Speaker 1: going out, you better make sure you get the right guy. 2185 01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:27,960 Speaker 1: And look, if it's Jeffish or if it's light Bold, 2186 01:51:28,040 --> 01:51:31,559 Speaker 1: I can see it, I can. But Grub making this 2187 01:51:31,720 --> 01:51:34,280 Speaker 1: statement the way that he does, it's almost like he 2188 01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 1: is telling Washington fans, yeah, be angry about this, because 2189 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm not happy about this. I thought I would get 2190 01:51:40,400 --> 01:51:42,320 Speaker 1: a real shot at this job, and it doesn't look 2191 01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:42,720 Speaker 1: like it. 2192 01:51:42,880 --> 01:51:44,519 Speaker 2: So I agree with that one hundred percent. Is I 2193 01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:46,760 Speaker 2: don't know the guy. I don't know what he's insinuating, 2194 01:51:47,040 --> 01:51:48,760 Speaker 2: but it does feel like he's trying to get ahead 2195 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:51,400 Speaker 2: of the story of like, hey, look you know, because 2196 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,360 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he could just go to Alabama 2197 01:51:54,680 --> 01:51:57,120 Speaker 2: and just let it be whatever, or he could have 2198 01:51:57,160 --> 01:52:00,920 Speaker 2: released this statement yesterday an hour after Kaitlino took the 2199 01:52:01,120 --> 01:52:06,639 Speaker 2: UH took the Alabama job. But because he didn't, because 2200 01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:11,920 Speaker 2: he waited what twenty four hours plus after Dubor, I 2201 01:52:11,920 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 2: think is I keep saying de Boer, I think it's Debor. 2202 01:52:14,200 --> 01:52:16,880 Speaker 2: But anyway, Yeah, we're working on it. Okay, I mean, 2203 01:52:16,920 --> 01:52:19,320 Speaker 2: he only played for a national championship, I mean whatever. 2204 01:52:19,360 --> 01:52:23,680 Speaker 2: But the point I'm trying to make is, like, if 2205 01:52:23,760 --> 01:52:28,479 Speaker 2: he releases this an hour after Dubor gets the Alabama job, 2206 01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:30,360 Speaker 2: then he sit there and say, Okay, they're just going together. 2207 01:52:30,720 --> 01:52:32,800 Speaker 2: The fact that he waited twenty four hours makes it 2208 01:52:32,840 --> 01:52:35,559 Speaker 2: pretty clear that not only was he at least considered 2209 01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:38,880 Speaker 2: a candidate, but that he probably wanted the job, which 2210 01:52:38,920 --> 01:52:42,280 Speaker 2: obviously makes sense. Right. And what I would say is 2211 01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:45,479 Speaker 2: I get the idea of not bringing in a first 2212 01:52:45,479 --> 01:52:48,559 Speaker 2: time head coach. I also think this is a little 2213 01:52:48,560 --> 01:52:51,439 Speaker 2: bit different. The other thing, too, Jason, is if you 2214 01:52:51,439 --> 01:52:54,400 Speaker 2: bring him in and if it doesn't work out, you're 2215 01:52:54,439 --> 01:52:56,479 Speaker 2: going to be able to get him on a contract 2216 01:52:56,520 --> 01:52:59,720 Speaker 2: that you can move off of pretty quick. I don't 2217 01:52:59,720 --> 01:53:02,400 Speaker 2: want to. This is an extreme example, but but you know, 2218 01:53:02,560 --> 01:53:05,360 Speaker 2: Mike Leach obviously a year ago passed away, they promoted 2219 01:53:05,400 --> 01:53:08,559 Speaker 2: from within, and then they fired the guy after one year. 2220 01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:10,439 Speaker 2: I'm not saying you should do that, but I just 2221 01:53:10,479 --> 01:53:12,400 Speaker 2: bring it up because you could get off of it 2222 01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:14,080 Speaker 2: pretty quick. This this You know what this feels like 2223 01:53:14,160 --> 01:53:18,800 Speaker 2: to me, honestly, is you have a new ad. The 2224 01:53:18,880 --> 01:53:22,240 Speaker 2: ad left for USC, the ad that hired Debor. And 2225 01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:26,160 Speaker 2: this feels like the ad wanting to try and flex 2226 01:53:26,200 --> 01:53:27,960 Speaker 2: some sort of muscle of Hey, I can go get 2227 01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:29,920 Speaker 2: a sitting head coach from this school or that school 2228 01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:33,679 Speaker 2: or whatever. Now I will say, you know, obviously we'll 2229 01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:35,519 Speaker 2: see who the head coach is. Maybe it ends up 2230 01:53:35,560 --> 01:53:38,320 Speaker 2: being better than somebody that we think it is. I 2231 01:53:38,400 --> 01:53:39,960 Speaker 2: just I don't think this was the right move. I 2232 01:53:39,960 --> 01:53:40,960 Speaker 2: really don't ohn either. 2233 01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 1: I would I would have gone with Groub and him 2234 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:46,840 Speaker 1: saying in this statement, I wanted to be the coach. 2235 01:53:47,720 --> 01:53:52,320 Speaker 1: So he's telling again, he is telling everybody. He's telling 2236 01:53:52,320 --> 01:53:54,559 Speaker 1: that Washington fan base, Hey, you could have had me 2237 01:53:54,720 --> 01:53:57,960 Speaker 1: because I wanted you, but you weren't the ones that 2238 01:53:58,040 --> 01:54:01,360 Speaker 1: got to choose. It's the athletic department, it's the ad 2239 01:54:02,040 --> 01:54:04,439 Speaker 1: point your fingers at them if this doesn't work out now. 2240 01:54:04,439 --> 01:54:06,439 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's sour grapes, but I do 2241 01:54:06,479 --> 01:54:09,519 Speaker 1: think that there is there's an implied thing here that 2242 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:12,160 Speaker 1: he wanted to make sure that the Washington fan base 2243 01:54:12,240 --> 01:54:14,479 Speaker 1: knew that he wanted them. I don't think he wanted 2244 01:54:14,479 --> 01:54:16,160 Speaker 1: to look like he was leaving them high and dry. 2245 01:54:16,200 --> 01:54:19,760 Speaker 1: I think it's more that than finger pointing or trying 2246 01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:22,080 Speaker 1: to cause trouble for Washington. I just don't think he 2247 01:54:22,120 --> 01:54:24,200 Speaker 1: wanted it misconstrued that he was just going to run 2248 01:54:24,240 --> 01:54:28,000 Speaker 1: out as soon as Debor left and I can understand that. 2249 01:54:28,200 --> 01:54:30,160 Speaker 1: Like I think from a I think he just wants 2250 01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:34,960 Speaker 1: the perception to be accurate. And now we see what happens. 2251 01:54:35,040 --> 01:54:37,120 Speaker 1: Is he going to end up at Alabama or is 2252 01:54:37,120 --> 01:54:41,560 Speaker 1: there another job that comes available that maybe if somebody 2253 01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:45,240 Speaker 1: gets somebody hires Fish or somebody hires light Bulb, does 2254 01:54:45,280 --> 01:54:47,560 Speaker 1: he go become the head coach for them? And then 2255 01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:48,400 Speaker 1: you just have the flip. 2256 01:54:48,520 --> 01:54:52,120 Speaker 2: Well, somebody just just mentioned this to me. He's from Iowa. 2257 01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:57,240 Speaker 2: There's a mini Matt Campbell buss going on, and it's like, 2258 01:54:57,520 --> 01:54:59,480 Speaker 2: could he take over for Matt Campbell by the way, 2259 01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:02,600 Speaker 2: you know Matt Campbell in the Big ten or Ryan 2260 01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:06,800 Speaker 2: Grubb in the Big twelve. It's an interesting conversation. But 2261 01:55:06,800 --> 01:55:08,360 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, Jason, we got to get out 2262 01:55:08,360 --> 01:55:09,800 Speaker 2: of here.
