1
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson put on a show last night. The former

2
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: MVP passed for a franchise record four hundred forty two yards.

3
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: I think I said four into twenty two in the

4
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: first hour. I shot it in twenty yard. The Ravens

5
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: now in sole possession of the first place in the AFC. North.

6
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 1: Will break down his performance and what we learned about

7
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: the Ravens in their epic comeback pressures on the Kansas City.

8
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 1: It's all straight ahead. Welcome to Good Morning Football. Hey everyone,

9
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: we're presented by Old Trapper Beef Jerky live in New

10
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: York City on this Tuesday, October twelfth. My name is Kadams,

11
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: Peter Schrager, Kryl Brand, D'Angel hall, our friend and brother

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: from Good Morning Football Weekend joining us as well. We've

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: got to get to some highlights. Of course, we've got

14
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: lots of things about peanut butter and jelly and tacos

15
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: to talk about. Justin Herbert, who's playing the best football

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: now let us know at GMF. But the NFL world

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: is talking about one thing and one thing only, and

18
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: that's why we bring in Tom Pallisero, our insider this

19
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: morning with the news that broke late last night, Tom,

20
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: good morning to you. John Gruden resigned as the Raiders

21
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: head coach. Mister Davis accepted that resignation. How did this

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: all go down? And where did the Raiders go from here? Okay?

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: John Gordon had defended himself since Friday, when The Wall

24
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: Street Journal published an initial personal email Gruden sent when

25
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: he worked for ESPN back in twenty eleven, in which

26
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: he used a racist trope to describe NFL Players Association

27
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: Executive director Demorris Smith. Gruden said repeatedly, publicly and privately,

28
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: these were personal emails, not meant for public consumption, and

29
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: he did not have a racist bone in his body.

30
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: The NFL turned over additional emails to the Raiders, but

31
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: Gruden was allowed to coach on Sunday against the Bears. Then,

32
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,639
Speaker 1: around eight pm Eastern on Monday, The New York Times

33
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: published an additional trove of Gruden's emails to Washington former

34
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: president Bruce Allen, among others, in which Gruden used misogynistic

35
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: and homophobic language, also expressed negative feelings toward the rise

36
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: of women officials, the NFL's pushed for a gay player,

37
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: Michael Sam to be drafted, and players protesting during the

38
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: national anthem. Within the hour, Gruden had met with Raiders

39
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: owner Mark Davis as well as his staff to inform

40
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: them of the study news Gruden was resigning as the

41
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: Raiders head coach. It is important to note one of

42
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: the homophobic slurs that Gruden used in those emails was

43
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: directed at NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who growing up defended

44
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: his gay brother against such insults. Back in June, it

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: was Goodell who proclaimed football is gay after one of

46
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: Gruden's own players, Karl Nassef, came out and eventually became

47
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: the first out player to appear in an NFL regular

48
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: season game. For Gruden the Raiders, in a league that

49
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: has tried to recast its image as one of tolerance,

50
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: this felt like a point of no return, a swift

51
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: and stunning fall for John Gruden, the former Super Bowl

52
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: winning coach who came out of the broadcast booth back

53
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen to rejoin the Raiders, a coup at

54
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: the time for Mark Davis, who had been pursuing Gruden

55
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: for years. Gruden remade the roster, the staff, he helped

56
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: the team with their transition into Las Vegas. The end

57
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: result a twenty two and thirty one record no playoff

58
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: appearances over parts of four seasons, and on Monday night,

59
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: John Gordon resigned in disgrace, quite likely his final coaching

60
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: opportunity at the age of fifty eight. In terms of

61
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: how the Raiders move forward from here, they have to

62
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: have a longtime Gruden assistant and special teams coordinator Rich

63
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: Basaccia as the interim coach, and they still do have

64
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: a game to play, a big one in the AFC

65
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: West on Sunday at Denver, Okay. So much work with

66
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: the NFL and inspiring change. These emails show a consistent

67
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: pattern of intolerance that is no place in this World'll

68
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: talk about it all morning here and all day on

69
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: NFL net work in tom Pellisara. You were the perfect

70
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: person to talk to, of course, as you broke this

71
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: story late last night. Thank you so much for joining us.

72
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you throughout the day here on Good

73
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: Morning Football back here at the breakfast table. We of

74
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: course are one big, happy, diverse family at NFL Media

75
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: and you're watching at home, and thank you for choosing

76
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 1: us this morning. So please let us know how you

77
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 1: feel about all of this. At gm FEME you can

78
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: make your voices heard. We certainly see those tweets as

79
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: if you are Show D'Angelo, you are a former player,

80
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: you are the best person to talk to about how

81
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: they're going to react in the locker room to this

82
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: news and how they can respond for the rest of

83
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: the season, because I think we all agree that our

84
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: hearts go out to Raider Nation with all of this

85
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: going on, because they're the ones that have to deal

86
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: with the aftermath. Yeah, and for these players, you know,

87
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: the distraction doesn't end just because coach gruten has resigned, right,

88
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: The questions still kind of linger, and then there's still

89
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: always that thought in the back of your head, you know, well,

90
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: well and this situation was this a factor in you know,

91
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: X y Z, And so you know you're always kind

92
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: of questioning yourself trying to just figure out, you know,

93
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: but what really was Coach Bruton's heart. You know, a

94
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: lot of those players, you hear Josh Jacobs kind of

95
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: talk a little bit um, you know, before all the

96
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: rest of this, you know, came out. Josh Jacobs was

97
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: one of the guys who said, hey, um, you know,

98
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: people make mistakes. Let's move on. You know, he's apologized Um,

99
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: and and now does that tone change? You know, I

100
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: would like to think it does, because when you find

101
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: out all of this stuff, you know, especially at this point, um,

102
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, it's just not good, It's not right. Um.

103
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: You know, I feel bad for those players. I think

104
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: they will respond in a positive way, though. Um. You know,

105
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: I think those guys will rally together. You know, we

106
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 1: use coaches, you know, coaches, coaches get get you the

107
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: game plan. Um, but at a certain point, the players

108
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: in the locker room have to come together and kind

109
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: of police themselves. And so I think this, you know,

110
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: I think this Raiders football team will ultimately be okay

111
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: because those guys have I think great leadership. Um you know,

112
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: I think Derek carrby a guy who steps up and

113
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: kind of you know, helped steady the ship. But you know,

114
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: it's always going to be hanging over this organization's head.

115
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: And to know what Al Davis stood for. And I

116
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: was fortunate enough to play for Al Davis. And part

117
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: of the reason, um, you know I wanted to go

118
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: to Oakland wasn't the best deal for myself. Um you know,

119
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: I got cut eight games in and I knew that

120
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: was a that was a possibility, but just being in

121
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: the room with Al Davis, Um, you know, hearing him talk,

122
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: understanding what he meant to the game of football, what

123
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: he meant and really diversifying the NFL and diversifying you

124
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: know that that that that Raiders organization. UM, you know,

125
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: he's he's he's he's somewhere looking looking down at us,

126
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 1: you know, terrified at what what has come of all

127
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: of this. But I think, you know, I think the

128
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: Raiders did the right thing. I think coach Routon did

129
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: the right thing. He needed to remove himself from this situation.

130
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: Let let that Las Vegas, you know, organization try to

131
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: go out there and try to move on without him,

132
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 1: because you know, with all this stuff coming out, it

133
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: is I mean devastating is A is A is an

134
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: easy term um at this point, because I mean, to me,

135
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: it's still kind of mind blowing to even see where

136
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 1: we are, where we were yesterday, and where we are today.

137
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: I think you put it really well and I appreciate

138
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: you being so candid and honest about it in your comments.

139
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: Tom Palasera broke the story, you said it, and last

140
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: night when a story came out that he was resigning,

141
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: it's it's on the aftermath of not only the Wall

142
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: Street Journal article that came out Friday, but also the

143
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: New York Times article that came out Monday. What was

144
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: a conflict for me is that Raiders knew that a

145
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: lot of this was coming out, and he still coached

146
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: the game on Sunday as the face of the franchise,

147
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: which we can dissect a million different ways. There was

148
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: a point of no return though. You can't have that

149
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: kind of language, I kind of hate speech out there.

150
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Then also have someone wearing the NFL logos while the

151
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: NFL is also trying to promote inclusivity and intolerance and

152
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: being a leader in that field. I would go back

153
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: to the Al Davis. The Al Davis hired Art Shell

154
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: as his head coach. First African Mary hired Amy Trask

155
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: to be in his front office, the first woman. He

156
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: hired Tom Flores, Hall of Fame coach, first Latino America.

157
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: The Raiders have always been known as, Hey, we've got

158
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of wild and crazy things going on. By

159
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: the end, we're all in this together, and we'll take

160
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: everyone from all different corners of the earth and put

161
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: them in one safe space. Yeah, I thought the nassive

162
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: thing was such a great stage into the next era

163
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: of the Raiders, because here's this gentleman coming out publicly

164
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: and saying here and then to take get these these emails,

165
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: whether they're for the past or whatever they are, it

166
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: almost sets you back a little bit as an organization.

167
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: They'll regroup, they'll find a way to move forward. To

168
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: Mark Davis, I believe as a man of his word

169
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: and his of his father's same type of mentality towards inclusivity.

170
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: But it's it's a dark moment for not only the

171
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: Raiders organization, but for all of us to have to

172
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: address this in twenty twenty one. Now, I think you

173
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: pit yoursel been earlier in the in the year, in

174
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: the hour that the stuff that was in those emails

175
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: is out there, and we know that and it always

176
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: will be out there. It can't be out there for

177
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: a leader, it can't be out there for an executive.

178
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: There's a way to conduct yourself that is completely embarrassing

179
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: and pathetic for any leader, let alone a leader of

180
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: football players. And one of the names you mention quickly

181
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: de halt, I can't. I would love to get inside

182
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: there a car's head right now. I mean on the

183
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: football side of this. The storyline, the narrative for Car

184
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: has always been enduring John Gruden for years, and Gruden's tough,

185
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: and Gruden will wear you out, and Gruen's on your

186
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: ear on the sideline, and he built that and now

187
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: it's finally coming to fruition this year, and now Gruden

188
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 1: completely abandons him and lets him down. You know, he's

189
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: on his fourth head coach in nine years. This is

190
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: a guy who, by all accounts is a boy scout,

191
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: and I mean that as a compliment, like a great

192
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 1: person who's all inclusive. And he put in time with Gruden,

193
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: like he put investment in Green. This was the payoff

194
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: year and Gruden completely now was just abandoned him and

195
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: now sorry, I screwed up, and now you're on your

196
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: own again. And it's just this guy can't get a break.

197
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: The Antonio Brown thing was ridiculous. And now this was

198
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: supposed to be the season three and Oz and I

199
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: went on national television and why not because they can't

200
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: beat the Ravens because their head coach was an ignoramus

201
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 1: in the leadership position. And now he's on his own.

202
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: I feel for Car, I feel for the fans, and

203
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: I feel for Rebel who trusted the guy Basachi now

204
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: takes over as the interim head coach. I know things

205
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: were so different, and I'm not trying to liken it

206
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: to what you would through in two thousand and seven, D'Angelo,

207
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: but you were on a team with the Falcons that

208
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: they are their coaches as the infamous body Petrino incident.

209
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: So what is the biggest challenge of the team faces

210
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: when having to regroup without their head coach? You know,

211
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: just a different voice, a different um. It's not really

212
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: set of rules, because the standard set of rules are

213
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: are still going to be in place, but you know,

214
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: it's really that coach's mentality. Um. You know, Coach Gruten

215
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: was a guy who had a certain mentality, real fiery.

216
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: Like you said, Derek Carr kind of has just gotten

217
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 1: used to that, UM and now it's going to be

218
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: a different person. You know, the play caller will still

219
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: kind of be the same, but it's it's it's how

220
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: you go about your day to day and um, you

221
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: know when you have a different coach, um, you know,

222
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: I know us going from Bobby Petrino to it was

223
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: actually Emma Thomas who was the Hall of Fame DBU

224
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: was in my room as a dB coach, you know,

225
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: so our relationship was great, you know, you know, he

226
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: taught me so much. Um, whereas coach Petrino, I just

227
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: I never felt this though we were on the same page.

228
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: And it might be guys in that locker room who

229
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 1: felt that way. Who whoo, who felt like for some

230
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: reason they just went on the same page with coaching room.

231
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: So for some of those guys, it's gonna be a

232
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: side relief. And for other guys who who did have

233
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: good relationships with them, it's gonna kind of be ah

234
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: Man coach really let us down. And how do they

235
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: respond to that? Um? You know this, it's a tough field.

236
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: It was a tough hill climb in general for this

237
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders football team. Now, I mean that he'll

238
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: just continues to get even bigger and bigger to try

239
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: to climb Dangel. You guys had going for you as

240
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: a team. The bleep that guy, we don't want him

241
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: he or anyway, I remember worked one came out the

242
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: nicest guy in the world and said he was a

243
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: bad guy. Do you think the Raiders players are having

244
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: to bleep that guy? Factor about Gruden or is he

245
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: still their guy? How did you get inside their head?

246
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's a mixed response, and I

247
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: think that's what's gonna be puzzling in that locker room.

248
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: And what we figure out is is what guys, you know,

249
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: did he have really good relationships with that they never

250
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: saw this coming? And what guys really were like, look, yeah,

251
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: I kind of it all along. And so it might

252
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: be a divide in that locker room. And that's what

253
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: we'll find out in the next coming weeks. And I

254
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: think you'll kind of see it a little bit even

255
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: on film too, like our guys sacrificing for the guy

256
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: beside him. We watched that Ravens football game last night,

257
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: and you saw guys sacrifice. You saw guys throwing their

258
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: bodies around, making the play for the next guy throwing

259
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: this block. Does it mean that much to these guys,

260
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: you know? Is that divide really there? Or will these

261
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: guys kind of come together? Will it be a rallying

262
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: cry for that Raiders football team? And just from the

263
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: journalistic side of it, this came out of an investigation

264
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: of the Washington football team in which six hundred and

265
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: fifty thousand emails were scoured through, and this is the

266
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: first leak that we've gotten. I don't think this story

267
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: is done. And I'm not trying to say that, hey,

268
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: there's gonna be some great in the discovery phase. But

269
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: for John Gruden, who was on Monday Night football on

270
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 1: a coach of another team, for that to be the

271
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: first wave of here's what was discovered in this thing,

272
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: this could be explosive. It could be very explosive. And

273
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: I think that's the caveat that I think no one's

274
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: really talking about, Like, this wasn't about John Group. This

275
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: was about the Washington football team. It became about John

276
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: Gruten And everyone has since the wrap up of the investigation,

277
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: everybody has been trying to figure out what's going going

278
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: in Washington, even myself, you know, as an employee. Um,

279
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, I called the games on Sunday on the radio,

280
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: and you know, it was times that I was kind

281
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: of like, you know, is this something I want to

282
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: be a part of because I didn't know what was

283
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: going to happen in that building and the uncertainty and

284
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, obviously we know some things have happened in

285
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: recent weeks with the DA coming in there and so

286
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: it just seems like it continues to go. You know,

287
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm not a player in that locker room anymore, but

288
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: you know, that taste, it just it just continues to go.

289
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: And I'm interested to see where it goes, because yes,

290
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: John Gruton got what he deserved. And I'm sure there's

291
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: millions of other people out here who are saying, the

292
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: Washington football team, we want to know what comes of

293
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,719
Speaker 1: this from from that stand out, We'll be here right here,

294
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: good morning football. Much more to get you highlights from

295
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: last night, Lamar Jackson putting on and all times players

296
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: sacrificing for each other. De'angelo Hall says, well, have more

297
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: highlights from that thriller in Baltimore, but against the Colts

298
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: after this, don't go anywhere electric football. Last night, Let's

299
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: get into it, Lamar, that was one of the greatest

300
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: nights you've ever seen. Was ever doubt be honest, No,

301
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't a doubt of my mom our team. We

302
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: you know, we hit that peat that we need it,

303
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: you know, at the right time, second half, and you

304
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: know we just knew it one play at a time,

305
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: you know, that's all we kept signing in the huddle

306
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: like one pay at a time. You know, don't get

307
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: too hype over you know, we get twenty yards on

308
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: this play. You know, just take our time, and that's

309
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: what we did. Not a great night for defenses will

310
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: figure Lamar Jackson out. Not a great night for make

311
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: Lamar beat you with your arm being the default analysis

312
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: for Lamar, who threw for four hundred twenty two and

313
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: four Jones. That's not only incredible an epic because it

314
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: was a comeback, but also from an efficiency perspected eighty

315
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: six percent completion percentage, the highest ever four quarterback throwing

316
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: over four hundred yards. This was Russ and Wilsony, Russ

317
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: sol Wilsony. This was a Mahomesian epic comeback. Would you

318
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: make of it? Would you learned' angelo? I mean, I mean,

319
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: just hats off to Lamar. I mean, the Coats did

320
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: everything they could to give this game away to kind

321
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: of at the end, missing some field goals and things

322
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: like that. But I tell you what I mean, Lamar

323
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: played lights out football. I mean, me and my buddies

324
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: were having a little conversation, we guys, a little group

325
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: chat that we've had, gosh, probably about fifteen years, all right,

326
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: even when I was playing in the league and all,

327
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, all types of conversations come up. And the

328
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: last conversation left yesterday, even it was about quarterbacks, and

329
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: I was just saying, how, you know how I love Lamar,

330
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: but you know I need him to take that next

331
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: step right And everybody's like, man, he's won an MVP,

332
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yes, he won an MVP with limited throwing.

333
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: So the potential off the charts at what this guy

334
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: can be once he sits in the pocket, once he

335
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: sees a little more defenses. And that's what you saw.

336
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: You saw what the end result of what Lamar is

337
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: going to be. And I don't think he is a

338
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: finished product. Yesterday was a amazing game, thirty seven of

339
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: forty three, fourging and forty two yards four touchdowns, and

340
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: I'm telling you he's just scratching the surface. I mean,

341
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: he's just really understanding that, yes, I can always run

342
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: around and use that as my check down, but teams

343
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: now have to guard me a little bit differently because

344
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: I can get out this pocket and make tremendous plays

345
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: with my legs. And you saw that, you saw him

346
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: kind of understanding what coverages he was going against where

347
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: to attack these coverages, And I mean, I thought Lamar

348
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: played a hell of a football game. And I'm ready

349
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: to say, Lamar Jackson, you're proving everyone wrong right now, buddy,

350
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: because it was an amazing game by him. By the

351
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: rest of those Ravens, you know, couldn't have done it

352
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: without the defense getting those stops, because it took a

353
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: while for the defense to get those stops. Because Frank right,

354
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: I thought called a masterful game early on, play really

355
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, twenty two unanswered points when at some

356
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: point it looked like it was gonna be a we

357
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: gotta pick apart Lamar tomorrow and there we gotta do.

358
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: We gotta do the heavy lifting, and now we gotta

359
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: find holes in his game again. That was in a

360
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: week where Josh Allen was unbelievable, Justin Herbert was unbelievable,

361
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was flawless. I think Lamar Jackson has had

362
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: the best game played by a quarterback all season. Is

363
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: the one, and it might have been missed by most

364
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: of America because it was after the halftime on Monday

365
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: Night football. Take a look now that we're done with

366
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: the Week five of football, take a look right now

367
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: of the NFL's passing leaders. There's Lamar. He's right in

368
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: the thick of it, right there with with Brady, who's

369
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: in a pass first offense, car pass first offense, Stafford

370
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: and Herbert. Lamar is right there. Let's take a look

371
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: at the NFL's rushing leaders right now. Okay, he's right there,

372
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: He's right in the top ten with some of the

373
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: best running backs you'll ever see. And then let's look

374
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: at teams total offenses total yards in the NFL. The

375
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: Raiders are thirteenth in the league, the Eagles are fourteenth,

376
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: and there's Lamar Jackson right with more yards than the

377
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: entire forty nine ers, the entire Colts team, and oh

378
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: sixteen other teams after that. Lamar Jackson is putting on

379
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: a show week to week. It is in dramatic fashion.

380
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: A lot of it is after hours. They've had so

381
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: many primetime games, and yet this guy continues to dispel

382
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: all the myths that he cannot play quarterback, and his

383
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: team continues to dispel the miss that you can't win

384
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 1: football games that way. They were down twenty two to

385
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: three with what was supposed to be a run first offense,

386
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: and guess what they scored twenty two on answer points

387
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: and that guy through for over four hundred and forty yards.

388
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: Hats off to Lamar Jacks helly. Yeah, add to the history.

389
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 1: It couldn't be more appropriate that this happened last night

390
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: and the Ravens hundred yard Russian streak is over. It

391
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: got snapped, one game short of the all time record.

392
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: This whole thing where Vic van Joe the Broncos got

393
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: pissed off, they run for one hundred yards. It's over.

394
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: They did not do it last night. I don't know

395
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: if they're disappointed to buy it, but I'm not at all.

396
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: This couldn't be more appropriate. This is we're evolving. We're

397
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: past that, we're done with the streak. I'm also evolving

398
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: past the palpable surprise every Monday or Tuesday morning when

399
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 1: Lamar throws a few asses. He has done this before.

400
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: We need to move as a community, as a country

401
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 1: passed like wow, Lamar can throw a little bit too.

402
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: Last year, he's already had a game where he threw

403
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: eighty percent in two hundred and seventy five. Two years

404
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: ago he had a Gamewey through eighty five percent and

405
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: three twenty four. This is not all of a sudden,

406
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: Happy learned how to put. He knows how to put.

407
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 1: He likes to drive. He's better at driving. He's also

408
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: very good at putting. So I'll just speak personally. I'm

409
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,239
Speaker 1: tired of the oh my gosh, he can no to

410
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: pay attention. He's been able to pass for a long time.

411
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: Some nights he does it better than others. He's the

412
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: perfect weapon, and he does belong with those guys. He

413
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: belongs with running backs. If you put him at wide receiver, Peter,

414
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: he'd be in the top five receivers. If he wanted

415
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: to put him a cornerback, he'd be in the top five.

416
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: With the interceptions, Adams, he can do it all. But

417
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: he's a quarterback. I know, we all know. Mike Evans

418
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: was asked yesterday about how how often he thinks about

419
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: the greatness of Tom Brady when he's out there, and

420
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: here's what he had to say. I mean all the time.

421
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: He always What he does is it's crazy, especially at

422
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: his age and the level of play that he's been

423
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: able to sustain for such a long time. It's it's

424
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: unreal and I don't think we'll ever see it again.

425
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: It's true. What Brady's doing this season unheard of. He's

426
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: blowing these other forty four year olds out of the

427
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: water historically, but his numbers this season are tops of

428
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: almost every single category. Evans is catching touch instance, saying

429
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: that's going on. If Tom Brady somehow wins the MVP

430
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 1: this season, where does that stuck up as far as

431
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: the greatest featuring his career? Is this even the conversation.

432
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just feel like he need begin

433
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: pretty yeah, right, and like if he wins the MVP,

434
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: does he then get that that's the greatest feed in

435
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: his career? Then he wins another super Bowl and we're like,

436
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, that's the greatest feet of his career.

437
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 1: The next year wins another and then know that one

438
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: at forty five. I don't know how many times he

439
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: can rip up the pages on you know, this is amazing.

440
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 1: But what he's doing this incredible what I find so fascinating.

441
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: We watched these games and on and on Sunday. It

442
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: was a cool one where he had Momo and NaN's

443
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,719
Speaker 1: doing the game. It's not often that we get an

444
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: NFC team on CBS, and especially those guys, and it's like, Wow,

445
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: Brady is significantly older than Tony Romo, and Romo's calling

446
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: his games. And you've got Mark Sanchez in the booth now,

447
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: and you've got Jonathan Vilma in the booth, and you've

448
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: got all these other people who are significantly younger than

449
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback that they're owing an eye over. It's a

450
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: fascinating dynamic. And I know that forty five or fifty,

451
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: we're not sure what it is. Let's appreciate forty four.

452
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: It's insane what Tom Brady is doing right now. And

453
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: he looks as good as eart. Yeah, I mean, Tom

454
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: Brady is amazing. I mean I thought he was amazing

455
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: four or five years agoing to see him continue down

456
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: this road. You know, we knew that Tom Brady this year,

457
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 1: it had the opportunity to do something special. You know,

458
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: if you watch how this team played last year, in

459
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: the chemistry, as how they got better and better as

460
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: the season went on, you knew, oh man, the workhorse

461
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 1: that Tom Brady is, this team has a chance to

462
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: really be scary. But I think the biggest feat was

463
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: last year. I mean just everything they had to overcome

464
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 1: with COVID, with not having you know, typical offseason to

465
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: really work out all that chemistry and to ultimately come

466
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 1: out and win the Super Bowl. You know, that's that's

467
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: that's Tom's measuring stick. You know it's MVPs are cool

468
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: and they're great, but Tom wants to sit in front

469
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: of you and flash those rings. And so to get

470
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: seven I thought was the greatest accomplishment anybody could ever

471
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: think to greater feat for Tom Brady winning without Belicheck

472
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: and a new team was up greater to you than

473
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: twenty eight to three. Tell me yes, yeah, yes, yes,

474
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: just because I was one of those ones who thought

475
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: it was all about Belichick as well. Um, I didn't

476
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,360
Speaker 1: give Tom the amount of respect he probably deserves, so

477
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: I apologize for that. Twenty three is because Kyle Shanahan

478
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: didn't run the ball. Yes, that's that's because Matt Ryan

479
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: didn't do these things. That's a footnote. I love twenty

480
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: eighth to three. But the answer is absolutely a resounding yes.

481
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: It would be as most impressive if he won the

482
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: MVP because the Hall you know this, he won the

483
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: Super Bowl a lot last year because Devin White and

484
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: Jason Pierre Paul. That was a great team, a great team,

485
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: and the said, no Lineman, if he wins the MVP

486
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: in the era when we have the best quarterbacks we've

487
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: ever had and passing records being broken left right, and

488
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: he's forty four, Yes, it would be. However, my final

489
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: answer to this is that he his greatest accomplishment is

490
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: still four years away. It's the twenty twenty five season

491
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: and he has a date with destiny and bring me

492
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 1: the picture. This is the man he is chasing. This

493
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: will be his greatest accomplishment. That's George Blanda in an

494
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: NFL game, oldest player of all time. Tom Brady still

495
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: has four years left to go when he gets that

496
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 1: he can finally best Kyle. I have another show. I

497
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: thought you're gonna show Fisher of arch Manning and say

498
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 1: when he beats arch Man and I'll be an arch too.

499
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: That is when when he's George Blanda's age beating arch

500
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: Man in the Rookie and the super Bowl, then it's like, Tom,

501
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: you're out of here. Go let's welcome in live from London.

502
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: Scott Piola's got hello, Hello, Scott. We gotta start, though

503
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 1: on a different tone here. We're gonna start with the

504
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: breaking news out of Las Vegas last night. I know

505
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: you were likely at a different time zone when I

506
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: went down. But John Bruden has now resigned as the

507
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: Raiders head coach after multiple reports surface of him using

508
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: racially insensitive, homophobic, and misogynistic terms and emails I dated

509
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: all the way back to twenty ten. Let me ask

510
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: this guy, You've been in the league a long time.

511
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: What was your first reaction when you saw the news?

512
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: You know, well, first, I'll go back to the news

513
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 1: when all of this information started to come out, it

514
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: was disappointment. It was unfortunately. I wish I could say

515
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: it was shock, and I don't mean because of John Bruden,

516
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: just because I've been in too many rooms for too

517
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: many years. And I woke up this morning and saw

518
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: that he had resigned, and I saw the additional like

519
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: every couple of hours is more information coming out. And

520
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: again I'm still trying to process my feelings. I'm having

521
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: a lot of feelings, and I'm going to be quite

522
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: honest here. We don't have enough time for this show.

523
00:24:54,720 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: I wish my feelings were just disappointment in John, but

524
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,719
Speaker 1: I think that there's a much bigger thing going on

525
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: here that we have to keep being reminded of rather

526
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: than us reminding ourselves where we're at in society, and

527
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: so I'm still processing a lot. But I guess the

528
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: word I can't get past is words or disappointment and frustration.

529
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: Totally understand Scott and completely relate. Let's try to compartmentalize

530
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: a little bit and look to the business side of it.

531
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 1: You understand the football business. What happens next with the

532
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders? What did they do to move on

533
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: from here as an organization, as a team? You know, Kyle,

534
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: This is the interesting thing is that all of us

535
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 1: that are in this business, players, coaches, anyone who's with

536
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: a team, we are trained and taught to compartmentalized life

537
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: and compartmentalize things. Okay, you have a death in the family,

538
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: you compartmentalize, and you go out and play a game

539
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: or work a game. There's a lot of things that

540
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: we've been trained to compartmentalize. This to me is going

541
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: to be very interesting. I think there will be a

542
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: segment of the population within the Raiders that can compartmentalize. Again,

543
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: because of the topic that we're on here, I think

544
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: that there will be players that won't be able to compartmentalize.

545
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: And it's gonna be really interesting to see how the

546
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: team reacts based on this. Again, this is one of

547
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 1: those ones that I wish I could give you a

548
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: better answer, because you'd say, oh, yeah, they're going to compartmentalize,

549
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: They're gonna do everything will be fine, because that's what

550
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: they're trained to do. I don't know if any of us, well,

551
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: clearly none of us are trained to work ourselves through

552
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: circumstances like this. That's well said. Scott will of course

553
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: be tracking the John Gruden story throughout the day. Are

554
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: very on Tompilso breaking that story last night. John Gruden

555
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: resigning as the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders.

556
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: We loved while we have you, and you're over in London.

557
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: Let's talk a little football rest of the NFL now,

558
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: and I want to ask you about the Cowboys. You're

559
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: in London. They're America's team and they are looking awesome

560
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: on offense, but as stand out defensively as well. I'll

561
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: be honest and admit I wasn't sure how the dan

562
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: Quinn campaign was going to go over. I had my questions,

563
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 1: how much do you believe they're defensive perform so far

564
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: as shaped and influenced by their decordinator. Okay, I think

565
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: a ton of it is. You know, I worked several

566
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: years with Dan in Atlanta, even though he was the

567
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: head coach. I had studied him as a coordinator under

568
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll and got to work with him day to day.

569
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: What I really loved that they did was they went

570
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: out and made sure for Dan's defense, what he likes

571
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 1: to do in terms of penetrating, getting up field, the

572
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: type of coverages he likes to run. They have done

573
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: a good job of making sure that they're bringing in

574
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: or keeping the players and possibly you know, and moving

575
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 1: on from some of the players that don't fit the scheme.

576
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: You know, one of the key things to Dan quinn

577
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: football is he always talked about this preach it's all

578
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: about the ball. And I understand he's the defensive coordinator

579
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: and not the head coach, but what he has done

580
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 1: there right now their number two in the league in

581
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: takeaways and their number two in the league overall in

582
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 1: terms of turnover turnover differential. So Dan is making his

583
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: imprint on this defense, which has become infectious with the

584
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,399
Speaker 1: whole club because, oh, by the way, on the other

585
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: side of the ball, they've got a heck of a book.

586
00:27:58,600 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: You know, they got a bunch of good players on

587
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: the side the ball. So Dan's whole idea about being

588
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: about the ball, getting after the ball. Everything is about

589
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: the ball. That's what their defense is doing right now

590
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: and they're capitalizing on that as an overall team. Scott,

591
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: the reason you're in London is what an international combine?

592
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: Tell us what's happened in this week? Yeah, yeah, it's so.

593
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: They's been a lot going on in the past several days.

594
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,880
Speaker 1: We've got forty three players from across the world, from everywhere,

595
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: from New Zealand, Japan, Germany, most every country you could

596
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: think of. We've got three players in from Nigeria that

597
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: are part of a program that OCU Manora is heading

598
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 1: up and they're here working out. And what the process

599
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: is is we have this combine. We didn't have it

600
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: last year. We had a couple of years ago in Cologne.

601
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: The players come here, we evaluate them. I've spent the

602
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: past two days interviewing all of the players, spending time

603
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: with them, getting to know them, their backgrounds. I mean,

604
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: what we see here is amazing. One young man I

605
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: was with is a full time plumber and a part

606
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: time student and oh, by the way, he pays to

607
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: play football. It's a remarkable group of people. And from this,

608
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: it's like what we did last year with Samas Race.

609
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: From this group, we select a group of players that

610
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: will come to the United States and train for three

611
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: months through late the late winter early spring, and we'll

612
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: have another combine or pro day based on the players

613
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: that we select out of this forty three. So cool,

614
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: and it's such a cool experience for you, obviously personally

615
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: and professionally having done so much work over the years

616
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: in different front offices to now be able to go

617
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: to London and foots on the ground, feet on the

618
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: ground and also playing a big role in the leadership

619
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: of it. Scott, thank you for being a part of

620
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: the show and thank you for bringing our game overseason

621
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: for them to now bring their games over here. Absolutely,

622
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: Thank you guys. Great to see you again and I'll

623
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: see you from home. On Tuesday, during the Sunday night

624
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: football rain delay, Bills and Chiefs players were given peanut

625
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: butter and jelly sandwiches. It was viral all over the

626
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: place and they were eating them as they were waiting

627
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: for the game to get going again. That got us

628
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: thinking about perfect combinations, like, we'll try to team me

629
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: up in the football world, though, who do you believe

630
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: has the potential to be the PB and j the

631
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: go to combo this season? Well, I'm going with a

632
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: young crew. On with a young crew. It's Joe Burrow

633
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: and Jamar Chase. I mean, if that ain't peanut butter

634
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: and jelly for you, and dating back too, and look,

635
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, we all have chronicled those struggles in the

636
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: preseason and every everybody was worried and concerned Joe Burrow

637
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: first game, say, hey, so the dude couldn't catch and

638
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: so I mean just the connection in the combination that

639
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: those two guys. Joe Burrow has over twelve hundred yards

640
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: eleven tds forming and fifty of those yards are Jamar chases.

641
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: Five touchdowns are Jamar chases. I just think that this

642
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: young combination is going to be a force to be

643
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: reckoned within this league years and years to come. I

644
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: know there's probably better combinations that have been doing it longer,

645
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: but I like these two young studs right here and now.

646
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: It's awesome. You mentioned offseason concerns and the August worries

647
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: or whether he can catch the ball. How about a

648
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: tantum that was listening to offseason concerns right up until

649
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: week two, because Week one it did not look at

650
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: I'm going with the old, the old forsm Rogerson Adams.

651
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: This is what it is, and they're doing it against

652
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: started off slow out of the gates against New Orleans.

653
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: Listen to this, Davante Adams. Right now, these are league

654
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: and catches, a targets, receiving yards, twenty yard catches, first down.

655
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: I can go on. There's about a million different stats.

656
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: Rogers and Adams is the combination. They are the goat

657
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: right now and they are sitting pretty on top of

658
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: that perch. I would love to see Jamarin Borough challenging,

659
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: but there's no one even How are you going with

660
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 1: the Rogers hair these days? The peanut butter is definitely

661
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: a little frunch, yes, right, just a little bit. I'm

662
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: looking at watchability absolutely, and you can have the Longs,

663
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: the Mannings, the Shanahans. Give me a fathersome combination in

664
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: New England. Give me Bill and Steve Belichick playing. There's

665
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: the tandem. There's the old man and a prodigal son

666
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,959
Speaker 1: on the left. You don't know if you know this

667
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: is Steve played lacrosse at Rutgers. He was a long

668
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: stick middie. Actually played against Chris Hogan at one point

669
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: on the field and lacrosse and has probably the most

670
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: giffable face in the NFL right now. He used to

671
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: have the crazy, crazy long hair and then he went

672
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: with this sort of unbelievable Joe dirt deal and that's

673
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: just how he rocks it. And he sticks his tongue

674
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: out sometimes on Cameron. People like it. And he's the

675
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: son to the most successful NFL coach of all times.

676
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: This guy gonna coach the Patriots someday? Is he going

677
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: to do it? Because I'm here for it. I love

678
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: them when it's a Patriots game. Enough of Mac Jonesy's great.

679
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: I like the Belichick boys. Those are my guys. Those

680
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: are hard to beat. Ears is really hard. It's the

681
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: classic poeb and J. You know exactly what it's going

682
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: to taste like every time, but it's must watch. I

683
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: like when you like have an unexpected peb and J.

684
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: Maybe it's on cinnamon toast, Maybe there're slices of banana

685
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: put between the peanut butter and the jelly. It's something

686
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: that you weren't quite expecting. And that's my favorite combo.

687
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 1: It is Justin Herbert, who's somehow and possibly building upon

688
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: a record breaking performance his freshman season now he's in

689
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: his sophomore year. And it's Mike Williams is the receiver

690
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: that I love of watching him throw too. Nobody thought

691
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: and nobody stopped his Banan saases in the pb and

692
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: J coming or those blueberries, and these two combined guys

693
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: for a league leading six touchdowns so far. Williams is

694
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: fifth in the league overall. Big body, red zone. Love

695
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: him all over the field. It's nothing but big play

696
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: after big play between them, and I don't see them

697
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: slowing down anytime soon. Okay, there's no blueberries in the PBJ.

698
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: Blueberries I love like toast with peanut butter and then

699
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: a very little jelly and lots of blueberries on top.

700
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Blue Stone Street, let's go. I have

701
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 1: toasted my bread on a PBJ. It is amazing for

702
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: cinnamon bread. Not a joke. Oh what you'll talk, Kirk

703
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: Cousins and the biting very strange first five weeks. Give

704
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: us your PBJ combos. I know I'm not the only

705
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: one who eats fruit on their PB and j's I

706
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: know it, or you put extra peanut butter on both sides.

707
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: The little it's a lot of ways to go. Taco

708
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: Tuesday is still cool because we say so time to

709
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: get some things off our chest with a segment that

710
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: we call Taco about It, Peter, anything you want to discuss,

711
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: maybe Liederhosen, the NFC North, maybe blueberries on peanut butter,

712
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: and generally I'm gonna go to last week's Vikings Lions game.

713
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: The big story afterwards was Dan Campbell crying and so

714
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: emotional that his team couldn't come out with a win

715
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: because of this miraculous victory by the Minnesota Vikings. In

716
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: the last second. Have you been watching Vikings games this season?

717
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: I'm crying for Vikings face. The Vikings have had one

718
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 1: of the most historically heartbreaking seasons of any and it's

719
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: only five weeks in. This was Week one, a game

720
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: that they thought they were in control of and their

721
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: star running back fumble in overtime in Bengals territory. They

722
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: would eventually lose this and overtime. This is Week two.

723
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 1: They marched them all the way down field and Greg

724
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: Joseph who had hit a fifty yarder earlier. This is

725
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,359
Speaker 1: a forty yarder. They lose. This is week four. They

726
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: go to Cleveland where they somehow hold the Browns to

727
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: just fourteen points and they lose. Then this week was crazy.

728
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 1: They're up sixteen to six against the Lions, which a

729
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: minute left to go, and Greg Joseph comes out to

730
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,479
Speaker 1: put it away. This one looks like it was good.

731
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: It was short, so weird. So then the Lions get

732
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: the ball back. They score a field goal. Then it's

733
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 1: sixteen to nine. Put the game away. Take a knee,

734
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: end it. Alexander Madison with a minute left to go,

735
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 1: just go down. The game's over. He's fighting three yards,

736
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: he fallals, and then the Lions come back and score

737
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: the touchdown and they have the two point. The fact

738
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: that it even got to that and then it get

739
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 1: this is what we see in the highlights, like, oh,

740
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: the Vikings win. The Vikings were up sixteen to six

741
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 1: with three minutes left, and they had a missfield goal

742
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: and they're running back fumbled unnecessarily, like they tried giving

743
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: this game away, and it's a team that has already

744
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 1: given away other games. The Vikings are two and three

745
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 1: they can very easily be five and o right now.

746
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: They have been that good. I am crying for the

747
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: Lions fans, obviously there's some tragic losses to them. I'm

748
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,720
Speaker 1: crying for Vikings fans. It's gonna be a heart attack

749
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: every time you're working up a lather over there to

750
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 1: these games, like just just take a knee, dude. Unbelievable.

751
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: That was a really good talk about it, because you

752
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: got sweating and lost the idea. We've been on a mission.

753
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 1: At least I have been to not underappreciate what Tom

754
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: Brady's doing this year, and that's great. We have to

755
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: do the same for Derrick Henry. It's not normal. Stop

756
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 1: normalizing Derrick Henry and just think it adds. Derrick Henry's

757
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. No, if he slipped in your fantasy draft.

758
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: If you don't think he's gonna do the things he's

759
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: gonna do a year, you are so wrong, so wrong.

760
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: But set the stage again. Historically, two thousand yard rushers

761
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: as Derrick Henry was last year, have major falloffs. Follow

762
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: me with the upper left corner. Dickerson falls up nine

763
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: hundred yards, Adrian Peterson eight hundred, Jamal Lewis a thousand

764
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 1: Barry Sanders the highest Everson. It's always a massive, massive

765
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: falloup Derek Hery's head. Derekmny is ahead after five weeks

766
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 1: on pace for twenty one hundred yards and in a

767
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: sixteen game season, still two thousand yards. Want to see

768
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: what he's down in the last forty games of his career.

769
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: Been the goat forty games stretch in NFL history. He's

770
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: looking down on Jim the Juice, t d and Eric Dickerson.

771
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: No one in the history of organized football has been

772
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: better running the ball than Derrick Henry over a forty

773
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: game stretch. Ever, understand he is incredibly serious about his

774
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: training and cry, oh this and photo modulation this, and

775
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 1: it's working. Stop thinking this is okay because it is

776
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: not human what he's doing. I appreciate you, Derrick Henry,

777
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: Dangel Hall, I appreciate you. What do you want to

778
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: talk about? Oh, I want to talk about Matt Ryan

779
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: Because he was a dude that I had already retired,

780
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: and I said, get him out of Atlanta. You should

781
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: have gone wander back. What are you doing? And through

782
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: the first two weeks was right, but then Matt said, hey, guys,

783
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: I still have it, and I think he got right

784
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: against my Washington team. But this is last week. He

785
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 1: finally gets the football to one of his great playmakers

786
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 1: and Kyle Pitts. And he's a guy that we thought

787
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,720
Speaker 1: was going to be a bigger part of this offense.

788
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: He hadn't been really up until last week and this

789
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: week against the Jets. But man, that Ryan still got it,

790
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: throwing the football at the seventy percent clip, almost thirteen

791
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: hundred yards, ten touchdowns. You know, I thought not having

792
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: you know, Julio first of all, was such a guy

793
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 1: that dictated coverage right, It made things a little bit

794
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,760
Speaker 1: easy because you know when who deals on the field

795
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: band And then all right, Calvin Ridley has stepped up

796
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: become a great playmaker. He wasn't playing last week, but

797
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: for Matt Ryan and his offense to continue to get

798
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 1: better and better and to see him, you know, return

799
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: to that kind of MVP form and proved to me

800
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: that he can still throw this rock. Therelling come back

801
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: for the Ravens. I started to wrap up. He's five

802
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: and the twenty twenty one season. It's come to it,

803
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: and so what do we do now? It's a very

804
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: important moment as we induct a new moment into the

805
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: Hall of Frame. These are images that speak to the week,

806
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: that connect the season. Think about an old school scrapbook,

807
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 1: a photo album. That's what we're talking about. So this

808
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: year we've had James Winston celebrating his face beating the

809
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: Packers week one. I love that we put that in there.

810
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: Need to remember that and documented. Then you had Lamar

811
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: Jackson end zone flip Week two. Then we go to

812
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: the Chargers justin Herbert Brand and stately they hug after

813
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: their win. And then week four, guys, we picked Brady

814
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 1: and Belichick's postgame hug. Let's go out to this week.

815
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: What we got there was this giant, lurking elephant in

816
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: the room. For all the Bills talk we had this offseason,

817
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: it said they haven't beaten the Chiefs, they can't get

818
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: by the Chiefs. On the first drive of the game,

819
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: the Bills went right down the field and they got

820
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: their touchdown. And then in the third quarter when they

821
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,399
Speaker 1: needed it, it was a finishing statement like no other.

822
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: Josh Allen hurtling over cornerback Lagarious need to get a

823
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: first down. This was so symbolic the Bills jumping over

824
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and saying, this is our moment. You've been

825
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: our hurdle and you're going to leap over you and

826
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 1: get there. I've got Alan over Snead. But really it

827
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: was the Bills jumping over the Chiefs in a lot

828
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: of ways in the ACA. Good job, Peter, I feel

829
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: like you wrote your paper and got a job. And Peter,

830
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: I mean you're together earlier talking about the Minnesota Vikers

831
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: and how some of these games they should have won, right,

832
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: They've played a lot of close games. To watch Kirk

833
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 1: Cousins interaction with Mike Zimmer as game. I mean it

834
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: was vintage. How you like that? You know it was

835
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: vintage Kirk Cousins And I said, Kirk, you can't run

836
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: up on my man. Zim like that. Zim's a coaching

837
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: veterans in this league. You might get zem a heart attack.

838
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: Zim the do a lot. That's my guy who was

839
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 1: my coordinator for a year. Love Mike Zimmer, Love Kirk Cousins.

840
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: Love this picture right here. Man, Minnesota got that monkey

841
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 1: off that back. Gotta win. I love it for those guys.

842
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 1: I love for those guys too. We gotta put ourselves

843
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: in January. When you look back on week five, Week

844
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: five was the weird week, the wild one. Remember Week five,

845
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: all that stuff with the kickers, Remember that crazy Bengals

846
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 1: Packers game. That's why I'm going with, Yes, Bengals kicker

847
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 1: Evan McPherson missing another kick and then supposed to be celebrating.

848
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 1: You're sort of confused here at the time about wait,

849
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,240
Speaker 1: did it go in or not? This was the weirdest

850
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: wild this week, and it does deserves a weird wild picture.

851
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: That's why I'm going with Evan McPherson up the Bengals.

852
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: Evan McPherson very on brand for good morning football. I

853
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,240
Speaker 1: see what you're doing here. What we were really robbed

854
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: of was him wearing the image would have been him

855
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:41,280
Speaker 1: wearing Jamal Adams outfit. That happened to see. How watched

856
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,360
Speaker 1: that one? And I will give you the perfect A

857
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 1: plus for this, And it's going to go with Peter

858
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: Schrager's image because this is the week Week five. I

859
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 1: want to remember Peter Schreger's heel turn. Yeah you know

860
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,360
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Yeah, Hell yes I do. Peter's abandon

861
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs completely. Peter, you are a ground floor investor

862
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes. Now you're selling all your shots. Peter

863
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,320
Speaker 1: Schrager in's fact, let's impose his face onto Josh Allen

864
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 1: as he is jumping over Sneed and leaping over him

865
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: in the rest of that Chief's Teams dot Com right now?

866
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: Who he is holding that stock? They can't have a

867
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 1: little dip. I don't know, man, hets dot com is

868
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. I don't know. But who is

00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: this guy? They don't mind. You're breaking my heart. Man,
