17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: Night foot ball and once again the Patriots look like

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: the Patriots. What's the difference. I'll tell you in a second.

19
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: The Patriots won eight straight games. They're nine to two.

20
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: They currently hold the best record in the NFL. How

21
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: did this happen? How does this happen? I have a

22
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: belief system, and how it happened? I remember, like again,

23
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: they're not playing a great schedule. You know. The wins

24
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: are over the Dolphins, the Panthers, the Bills win is

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: a big one, the Saints, the Titans, the Browns, the Falcons,

26
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, and the Jets. Okay, Buccaneers and Bill's only

27
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: two playoff teams likely out of that group. Bill's definitely

28
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: a playoff team. Buccaneers maybe, but probably. Hey, the rest

29
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: is you're playing a last place schedule or close to

30
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: last place schedule. Goes close to the last place team.

31
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: But I think there's a couple of different parts to

32
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: it which I can relate to as a coach when

33
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: we're dealing with the Portalay, Mike Brabele rebuilt his entire defense.

34
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: Eight starters were free agents last year. So what does

35
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: that mean? Okay, so he used his time. First, he

36
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: was a coach, so he knew his guys, he knew

37
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: who he wanted to bring in, and when he came in,

38
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: he brought his guys for his system. And it was

39
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: plug and play. And it took him a little bit

40
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: early in the season when they lost two out of three,

41
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: but they slowly kind of figured it out. And then

42
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: it's all different. When you have a quarterback, quarterback, point guard,

43
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You got to go one. He had a

44
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: year of seasoning, a year to figure it out, surround

45
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: him with a good team, and all of a sudden,

46
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: now the Patriots are back. Here's Mike Brabile, head coach,

47
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: talking about Drake May.

48
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 2: After the game, and we have high expectations for Drake.

49
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: He has high expectations for himself. Phil continue to improve

50
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: and know that he'll stay humble through this all. And

51
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 2: you know again, and as far as the performance tonight,

52
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 2: I thought it was, you know again, in first view,

53
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: you know, pretty good. He was good enough to win,

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: and he took care of the football man.

55
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: And again, so some of it is he's had a

56
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: year seasoning. A lot of it is they did a

57
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: great job of evaluating, and you get a little bit lucky, right,

58
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: you get it a little bit lucky. So much of it. Look,

59
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: would I love to say it's about coaching competency. It is,

60
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: and he's a more than competent Mike Rable is an

61
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: excellent coach, But a lot of it is when you

62
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: got the quarterback right, everything becomes easier. You track every

63
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: one of these teams that are doing well, and the

64
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: quarterback is a gigantic factor as to why it's really

65
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: really hard to win if you don't have quality quarterback play. Now,

66
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: you got to put things in place. You got to

67
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: rebuild the offensive line. They gotta have some weapons around him.

68
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: But look at the teams that are playing well, look

69
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: at the teams that are playing poorly, and there is

70
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: one common denominator quarterback. Correct, here's Drake May, the quarterback,

71
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: talking about his weapons.

72
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: Uh.

73
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 4: Now that trust was built up. Uh, you know, probably

74
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 4: when I was in middle school, when he was playing

75
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 4: in the league. It's it was long ago. You know,

76
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 4: guys like him and Hunter and Mac. You know, you

77
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 4: trust those guys for what they've done in this league.

78
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 4: And I just tried to give him chances. And you know,

79
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 4: Steph and you know, you break a couple of tackles

80
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: getting in zone, but you know those guys are great

81
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 4: for us tonight.

82
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Stefan Diggs nine catches, Hey mac Hollis who likes

83
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: to get dressed up as a bunch of stuff. Hunter

84
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Henry of course been around for a minute among the

85
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: weapons that he has, and they're giving him, they're getting

86
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: him time to throw. But Stefan Diggs being the go

87
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: to guy, and obviously Stefan Diggs is one of those

88
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: guys like AJ Brown. If he doesn't get the ball,

89
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna complain. And if he complains then then it

90
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: ruins your team. But yeah, Vrabel's done a great job.

91
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: I think the best thing they've done is with the

92
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: defense and bringing over players and understanding exactly what they needed,

93
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: when they needed how they needed it, and doing a

94
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: good job of evaluating, building rebuilding this defense. But Drake

95
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: may coming into his own. You have to give the

96
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: front office credit. You gotta give Vrabel credit for putting

97
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: enough pieces around him. They ran the football just enough.

98
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: When you get the quarterback right, the rest of it

99
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: is a lot easier. When you get the point guard right,

100
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: the rest of it is a lot easier, a lot easier.

101
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, let's get to our Tyraq play of

102
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,160

Speaker 1: dot com the way tire buying should be. Here's our

107
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: tyrack play today, care of ninety eight point five, the

108
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: Sports Hub and the Patriots Radio Network.

109
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 5: Snapped to me, looks to his left, he pumps, he throws.

110
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 6: Touchdown Patriots and who caught it?

111
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 7: Trivia Henderson ha trient for the rookie Travon Henderson, who

112
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 7: of course three touchdowns, two rushing that one receiving.

113
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: And it's our ti Raq play of the Day, buyer.

114
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: There's a lot that goes into the success and the

115
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: turnaround of the Patriots. Obviously, I think their ability to

116
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: get that defense up and running pretty smoothly is a

117
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: big part. Don't get me wrong. The soft schedule doesn't

118
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: hurt either. And then Drake May's emergence and the way

119
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: in which they and and look, this is part of

120
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: it is recruiting and signing in free agents. It's all

121
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: it is. There's a hit rate, it's not one hundred percent.

122
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 1: Some of it it's about evaluations. But Drake May, a

123
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: guy who people thought was the number one prospect, then

124
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: fell a little bit, then raised, and the Patriots got him.

125
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: Turns out to be right now the best prospect in

126
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: two years ago.

127
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 8: Strappt Yeah, Drake May is the biggest deal for me.

128
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 8: And I love their wins is you pointed out that

129
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 8: they have, especially the one in Buffalo, the one that

130
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 8: they had in Tampa, and so I'm not going to

131
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 8: hold their other wins against them. They are against kind

132
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 8: of the bottom of the National Football League, and one

133
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 8: of their losses was against the Steelers in a game

134
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 8: where they turned the ball over five times. They lost

135
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 8: by a touchdown in that game, and then the other

136
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 8: loss is the one to the Raiders. So I think

137
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 8: that they've at least proven with those road wins in

138
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 8: the games that they the game that they lost to

139
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 8: the Steelers, it's like, all right, if you just don't

140
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 8: turn the ball over five times and turn it over

141
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 8: at the goal line, maybe that's a win for them,

142
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 8: and they're even better and have the best record in

143
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 8: the National Football League. But to me, it's all about

144
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 8: Drake May. And it's funny because it's the draft class

145
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 8: of twenty twenty four that we will continue to be

146
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 8: talking about like we did I don't know, nineteen eighty three,

147
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 8: like we do of the Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Josh Allen,

148
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 8: Lamar Jackson draft class like those. It's those classes that

149
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 8: stand out. So when I see like Drake May have success,

150
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 8: this may be completely unfair, but I go to the

151
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 8: point of Ryan Poles of the Chicago Bears pointing out

152
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 8: the fact in the film room because he so wanted

153
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 8: to draft Caleb Williams, which was fine, it was absolutely fine,

154
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 8: but it makes me laugh to think of here was

155
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,119
Speaker 8: a guy who was poking holes in Drake May, trying

156
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 8: to convince others that they needed Caleb Williams to be

157
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 8: their quarterback, which again I think a lot of people thought,

158
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 8: and Drake May shining like he did, moves well in

159
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 8: the pocket. I was just really really impressed with how

160
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 8: Drake May's come along in the two years.

161
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, and last year it was Jade Daniels was the guy, right,

162
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: he had an unbelievable breakthrough season and there was some

163
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: regression this year. Obviously the elbow injury now is going

164
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: to help that regression. Caleb Williams is playing better. I

165
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: think the point you made is a really good one.

166
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: And again, let me just personalize it, hey, because when

167
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: you're trying to evaluate players. Oftentimes you have to do

168
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: it on film. Okay, I was able to recruit a

169
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: couple of kids in person. Stil you get them and

170
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: it can be different. You know, I have a player

171
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 1: every one of my staff and I had remember I

172
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: had changed out three assistants for three new assistants. All

173
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: six assistants were like, we got to get this guy.

174
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: And to date, he not playing very well. And you know,

175
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if we missed. I don't know yet.

176
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: It's still too early. But the point is it is

177
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: a in evaluations and inexact science. And I saw him

178
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: in person. I'm like, man, for our level, this is

179
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: really really good. And so I can tell you and like, honestly,

180
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: the Patriots, if you ask them honestly, would you have

181
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: taken Jane Daniels ahead of him? Would you have taken

182
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: Kayleb Williams ahead of him? Right? Well, what if the

183
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: Bears drafted drafted Drake May. What if the Commander's still

184
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: drafted Jayane Williams, would you have drafted Kayla Williams? What

185
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: would everything look like? It's such an I mean the

186
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: Chargers have this with Justin Herbert. Yeah, the Dolphins took Tua,

187
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: but had Tua and Herbert both been there, And you know,

188
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: Telasco does join us every week. We can ask him

189
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: next week he'll answer the question. But if he answered

190
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: it honestly, they probably would have taken to a even

191
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: with all their concerns. So there is a bit of

192
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: a luck factor. Guys do get better, guys do get worse,

193
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: Guys getting some interesting situations and you know, going through

194
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: two different coaching staffs, all those things are interesting. But

195
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 1: you're right. I mean, Drake May and that quarterback class,

196
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: like Caleb Williams, it's so up and down. We still

197
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 1: don't know where that settles. Yeah, Daniels was so good

198
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 1: in year one and it's been so wonky in year two.

199
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: We still don't know. Drake May as of now is

200
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: playing the best football. We'll see if he ends up

201
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: becoming the best quarterback.

202
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, the Daniels portion of it, you're hoping that he

203
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 8: can stay healthy. But I also think that there's something

204
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 8: to Cliff Kingsbury and making sure that Jayden Daniels didn't

205
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 8: plateau after his rookie season, because there was some question

206
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 8: as well, like in Arizona with Kyler Murray and where

207
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 8: the Cardinals were, and now that he's not there anymore

208
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 8: in Kyler Murray kind of is the same guy or

209
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 8: maybe worse than before. Maybe it's not all on Kingsbury's plate. However,

210
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 8: that is something that they're gonna have to prove in

211
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 8: Washington in years to come.

212
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,440

00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 3: Okay, now, Doug, you're not going to ever open the

234

235
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 3: on a show.

236
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 5: No, it's gonna collect dust. You just it's one of

237
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:40,840

00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,719
Speaker 3: Unless you get a second bottle, the same one, and

240
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,480

241
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,880

00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm a huge whiskey bourwin guy.

246
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, I will get you a bottle, and then

247
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,920

00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,720

251
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 5: I'll ven mill you will you? Yeah, maybe half of it.

252
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 1: You don't need to Venmo me, I got it. I'm

253
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: good for it. I'm good for it. But you know,

254
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: wait until we're gonna do a little tasting after this.

255
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: It's not Gollip Show here on Fox Sports Radio. It

256
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: is a Friday, a football Friday, and we're getting into November.

257
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: It's weird though we have some big games, but Dan,

258
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: you and I talked about this, like November fifteenth, usually

259
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: huge games in college football, a ton of them, and

260
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: it feels like there's three or four Is that fair?

261
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: Three or four really big ones?

262
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, there's I think there's there's a couple of

263
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 8: things at play number one. It used to be, especially

264
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 8: for the Big Ten, the Big Ten would wrap up

265
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 8: the week before Thanksgiving. Then when you go to a

266
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 8: nine game schedule when you have conference expansion, they've been

267
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 8: wrapping up this Saturday after Thanksgiving. But this should have been,

268
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 8: you know, leading up to a big week. I also

269
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 8: think that there are a few more marquee games that

270
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 8: we would have gotten that we wouldn't have gotten because

271
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 8: of college expansion, specifically this Texas Georgia game that's coming

272
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 8: up on Tomorrow night in Athens. So while there are

273
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 8: expectations that we would have these monstrous showdowns. I do

274
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 8: think that some changes in college football at least have

275
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 8: allowed some of these to still remain at this point.

276
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: Yes, I'll also point out, and again I'm that guy

277
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: that's going to say, one of the things that has

278
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: hurt a lot of these games is you've had a

279
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: coaching change, and you know, because of the coaching change,

280
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: and I know they've tried to change the rule, but

281
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: guys were allowed to get in the portal, you've lost

282
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: a couple of those players. They've kind of ruded, you know,

283
00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: they become kind of rudderless ships. So like Florida Ole Miss. Obviously,

284
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: if the records were the same, even if they hadn't fired,

285
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: Florida hadn't fired their coach. But now when you fired

286
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: your coach, you lose a sense of purpose. Like Florida

287
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: ain't beating Ole Miss.

288
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 8: No, Florida Ole Miss is only intriguing because of the

289
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 8: Layton Kiffen angle and the rumors, sure whether they're real or.

290
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 5: Not, he Kentucky laid waste to Florida last week.

291
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Kentucky, you know, like he's fighting for his

292
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: job or the perception of him fighting for his job.

293
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: So there's not a ton of them, but there are

294
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: a lot of games where it feels like if they

295
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: hadn't been ad a coaching change, how much more competitive

296
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: would this game be? You know, and I think the

297
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: world the word is a lot, a lot more competitive.

298
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: Like you know, Oklahoma State Kansas State, it was been

299
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: a good rivalry. Kansas State obviously disappointing her. Oklhama State

300
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: really disappointing here. But had Mike Gundy not been fired,

301
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: what would their record be? Would hass Hani their quarterback?

302
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: Would he be coming back trying to play? I don't know.

303
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 8: So to branch this out, this is if you'll just

304
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 8: give me a few seconds here to remember earlier on

305
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 8: the season when kirkirb Street was complaining about the college

306
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 8: football schedule in a way and I think he was saying,

307
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 8: and please correct me if I'm wrong, but it was

308
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 8: too bad that all these great games are happening at

309
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 8: the same time, that maybe one Marquee game is playing

310
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 8: on one network and then another Marquee games playing on

311
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 8: another network, specifically at night. Do you guys remember that conversation?

312
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 5: I have the sound here, Okay, let's give it a listen.

313
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 10: It's another example of why we need eventually a commissioner's office,

314
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 10: like the NFL has a commissioner's office, right, And there

315
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 10: are a lot of different layers to what that office

316
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 10: could do. Obviously in this nil and portal era and

317
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 10: the realignment era, I think the biggest thing that I

318
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 10: think sometimes as a guy who eats and breathes college football,

319
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 10: there are some weeks in college football or it's just

320
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 10: there might be one good game, and there are other

321
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 10: weeks like this week. You could argue this is the

322
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 10: greatest weekend of the entire year. Starting Friday night there's

323
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 10: good games, yeah, and then from game day and then

324
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 10: after game day noon eastern all the way. If you're

325
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 10: crazy like me, you'll watch BYU in Colorado at ten

326
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 10: fifteen they start, and that'll go to whatever one in

327
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 10: the morning, and you're thinking, man, why wouldn't we have

328
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 10: somebody instead of the Big ten in their own silo,

329
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 10: the SEC and their silo, the Big twelve and the ACC.

330
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 10: Wouldn't it be great if we had a commissioner's office

331
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 10: to just kind of like, let's spread some of these

332
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:40,719
Speaker 10: games out.

333
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 8: And so, Doug, is that kind of the point that

334
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 8: you're looking at this week and yeah, we got Texas

335
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 8: Georgia as the game, but maybe there's not as much

336
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 8: would you be along with what Herb Street said in that, I.

337
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 1: Know, because I don't think there's a way to pre

338
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: plan for it, right, I agree? Yep. You know LSU

339
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: and arc and SAW is supposed to be a rivalry game,

340
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: right Arkansas? Is that a disappointing year? Fired their head

341
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: coach Bob Petrino hasn't been able to fix it and

342
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: so and LSU fired their head coach, right, So there.

343
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: I don't know what LSU's record would have been had

344
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: they not fired Brian Kelly, but I think I think

345
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: it would have been a completely different game had they not,

346
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: you know they.

347
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 5: And I think it would be.

348
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 8: I think it would just be really difficult to lay

349
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 8: that out, especially with conferences and their own needs. However,

350
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 8: and this is my point, especially with the talk of

351
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 8: the Big Ten and private equity and a grant of

352
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,479
Speaker 8: rights that goes another twenty years, and sure is it

353
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 8: good for is it good for an Ohio state to

354
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 8: do this? Are USC and Michigan right and not wanting

355
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 8: to sign on to this sort of agreement? If we

356
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 8: had college football, like we all actually feared we would

357
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 8: get that week in the college football that we fear

358
00:18:55,640 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 8: is basically a forty school college football world, right, So

359
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 8: we would in that world, we actually would get what

360
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 8: Kirk kurb Street is talking about. But I don't know

361
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 8: if we necessarily want that, because there would be good games,

362
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 8: you know. You know how come I know that because

363
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 8: they see what the NFL does with thirty two teams.

364
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 8: There's a great game every single week in the National

365
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 8: Football League. Some weeks there's three or four of them.

366
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 8: We have one hundred and thirty schools. We really have

367
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 8: eighty schools that are relevant maybe if you want to

368
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 8: say in the Power for and how it's laid out,

369
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 8: but seventy to eighty schools, and that's just really tough

370
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 8: to do with all of those schools. So my point

371
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 8: being is, from what you're saying of what is maybe

372
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 8: kind of a downer week in college football, the only

373
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 8: way that we can cure something like that and do

374
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 8: something that Kirk kurb Street wants would be something that

375
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 8: nobody wants in college football, And that's like a forty

376
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 8: to fifty school.

377
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: League, right, which is kind of what we already have, right,

378
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: We have it without having.

379
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 8: It well, and you may feel that way, but I

380
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 8: feel that there's still independence with the SEC and the

381
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 8: Big Ten. And honestly, when you look at the schedule,

382
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 8: like the SEC is carrying a lot of the weight

383
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 8: of the good matchup, especially Oklahoma Alabama another one on

384
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 8: the slate there. But if you had the top six

385
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 8: schools from the Big Ten, if you had the top

386
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 8: ten schools from the SEC, and you ended up expanding

387
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 8: that way, that's the type of college football that Kirk

388
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 8: kurb Street would want that I think people would want

389
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 8: if they wanted great college football games every week. Otherwise,

390
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 8: this is kind of what we're going to get again.

391
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: I truly believe though, if you look at it and

392
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: you were to take away the records, take away the records, right,

393
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech Florida State. Historically that should be a great game.

394
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: Now Britain Tech has been very good in five years

395
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: or so. Florida State it's been two years since they

396
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: were undefeated. But yeah, then they have mishmash ones where

397
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: because of the new Big Ten, Ucla, Ohio State, Perdue,

398
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: Washington right where Washington in November should be playing Oregon

399
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: or Oregon State. Some you know, some sort of obviously,

400
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: you know, with some sort of proximity rival and that's

401
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: what the new that's what you're talking about with the

402
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: new league and so many teams and it can be

403
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: hard to manage.

404
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 8: Yeah, I actually think that the expansion has helped the

405
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 8: schedule a little bit. I do think, because we wouldn't

406
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 8: get Oklahoma Alabama, we wouldn't get Texas Georgia. Like the

407
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 8: addition of Oklahoma and Texas. But those two teams and

408
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 8: already a jam packed SEC. And well, you and I

409
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 8: may differ on like what happens with the top of

410
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 8: the conference. I understand that the SEC is deeper in

411
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 8: terms of competition than the Big Ten is. The Big

412
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 8: Ten's bottom just does not have the gravitas, if you will,

413
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 8: that the other that the SEC does, at least with

414
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 8: their bad teams. Like we still kind of give a

415
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 8: crap about some of their bad teams. Sure we do,

416
00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:58,719
Speaker 8: we do.

417
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: It's the Gottlieb Show. It's Fox Sports, right, it's also

418
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: a Friday here on the Doug Gottlieb Show. For forty years,

419
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,040

420
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,520

00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: by free roadst protection with the convenience slation options like

422
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: Bubble Tire Slation, tyrit dot Com the way tire buying

423
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: should be. You know it is Friday. We do make

424
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: our picks in something we call the Gambler. Kill the music.

425
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: So the Gambler is based like this. Everybody has one pick.

426
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: Cortiation Stewart has to have two. It's one that you

Speaker 1: Jason Karlay.

431
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 9: I'll take it from here, Doug, I'll take it from here.

432
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 9: My Jay's two team parlay starts. You got a race

433
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 9: to the bed in window. These are the two games

434
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,959
Speaker 9: this evening closest to the time right now, Oregon hosts Minnesota.

435
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 9: They're giving twenty five and a half currently, and I'm

436
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 9: going to take Oregon and I need to pair it

437
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 9: with one other team to make the Jay's two team parlay. Now.

438
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 9: I don't know if you guys been watching the wine

439
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 9: in the Louisville game, but money has been pouring in

440
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 9: on the Cardinals. I'm going to take the Cardinals, who

441
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 9: are it looks like they are giving two points at

442
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 9: home as opposed to getting six points. They're giving two

443
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 9: points at home to Clemson. Just a quick membo to Clemson.

444
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 9: Kevin Mack is not walking through that door tonight Louisville

445
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 9: to Oregon and thank me on Monday.

446
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: Gam you got to learn plea right, okay, damn byer Doug.

447
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 8: Last week the National Football League taught me a lesson.

448
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 8: When Las Vegas is trying to tell you something, just

449
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 8: go with it. I don't have a lot of confidence

450
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 8: in JJ McCarthy as the Vikings quarterback. They just lost

451
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 8: to the Ravens at home. Jjccarthy's played about two quarters

452
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 8: of good football this season. One of those quarters actually

453
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 8: happened in Week one in Chicago, where the Bears dominated

454
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 8: the Vikings for three quarters, yet Minnesota rallied for a win. Well,

455
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 8: those two teams playing where you are right now in

456
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 8: Minneapolis on Sunday, Doug, and Minnesota is a two and

457
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 8: a half point favorite against these red hot, come from

458
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 8: behind good Mojoe Bears. They're trying to tell me something.

459
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 8: I'm taking the Vikings minus two and a half. I

460
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 8: have no reason why. I think there'd be every reason

461
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 8: to go with Chicago. But they're saying Minnesota minus two

462
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 8: and a half. Give me the Vikings minus two and

463
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 8: a half at home against the Bears.

464
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go NFL as well. The Denver Broncos have

465
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: become like maligned because their offense has struggled. Right, you

466
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: got Bo Nicks in his second years. The starter has

467
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: just been okay, struggling turning the football over.

468
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 8: Probably not gonna have JK Dobbins this weekend.

469
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, not gonna have JK Dobbins stop me Herds before JK.

470
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: Dobbins is hurt. But he does get hurt. But they're

471
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: a three and a half point dog at home against

472
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,959
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs now again. I don't know what the

473
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: magic elixir is with Andy Reid off of bye week,

474
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: but the Andy Reid off a bye week thing is

475
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: a real thing. It's a real thing. Now. Back to

476
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: back road games are hard, but they had a week off.

477
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm taking the Chiefs come hell or high water. Andy

478
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: Reid off off of bye game. I think he's lost

479
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: a one game ever in the history of his life

480
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: off of bye game as a head coach, So gonna

481
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: take the Chiefs and gonna lay the points. You're welcome, Sammy.

482
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: Let's look at Wisconsin at number two Indiana beajors a

483
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 3: noon Eastern time on Big ten Network. Now you look

484
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: at the mindset of each of these teams. Wisconsin broke

485
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 3: a six game losing streak, finally getting a win. Get

486
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 3: taking some heat off of Luke Fickle. They beat the

487
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: ranked of Washington Huskies last week thirteen to ten. Maybe

488
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 3: they're feeling a little loose. They come into Bloomington as

489
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: twenty eight and a half point underdogs. And then you

490
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 3: look at Indiana coming off that last second VIC on

491
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 3: the road at Penn State, twenty eight and a half

492
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 3: four touchdown favorite are the Hoosiers?

493
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 5: I like the uh.

494
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the Wisconsin Badgers with the points. I

495
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 3: think it'll be a blowout. They'll lose decisively, but not

496
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 3: by more than not by twenty and a half or more.

497
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: So give me the Badgers with the points.

498
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: Wow, you're taking the Badgers at Indiana. I take out

499
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: their first big win, the biggest win of the year.

500
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 8: If you told me the over under was forty three

501
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 8: and a half, I would have thought that's total yards

502
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 8: for Wisconsin that like truly, I.

503
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 3: Just think, man, I just twenty Are you telling me

504
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,880
Speaker 3: that the Boosiers are gonna win by four touchdowns or more?

505
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: Yeah?

506
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 9: I think we need to qualify this by saying, hey,

507
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 9: Google e Moogli, I don't know if Sam's gotten again.

508
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 9: We're picked right this sw So I think you kind

509
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 9: of qualify that by saying I'm typically wrong here.

510
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 5: I am.

511
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 3: I've been prefacing most of my picks with don't listen

00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 3: to me. I'm like the crazy guy to the bridge.

513

Speaker 1: ten games by more than four touchdow downs.

515
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: I know, I know again, and I know you're coming

516
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 3: to Bend State and you're maybe forty eight twenty four

517
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 3: will be.

518
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: A thing you make. You may be right, you may

519
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: be right. And Wisconsin did switch quarterbacks last week.

543
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: This is my way of apologizing. Okay. Uh. Last night

544
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: in our game, are lost to Saint Thomas. Early on

545
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: in the first half. We have a player, uh, Dontrell Hewlett,

546
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: who's a point guard and had been trending towards starting

547
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: and he was trying to get back defensively planted his foot.

548
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: He may have jumped and landed on the foot. I

549
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,959
Speaker 1: still don't know what happened. Uh, But there was a

550
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: time out called because of injury, and I was about

551
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: to yell at him for what I thought was getting

552
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: out of the way of the charge when he fell down,

553
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: and then I looked at his leg, his foot, and

554
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: I realized why he had gone down. It was a

555
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: cam scatterboo type of injury. Oh geez, And uh, I

556
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: just saw the foot be in the wrong direction, and

557
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 1: a couple of my players looked like they were going

558
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: to vomit, and one was about to start crying. And

559
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, we we gathered him and we sat him down,

560
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: We calmed it down, we just talked about the game

561
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: and then went over to check done him. And then

562
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: I saw it an open wound fracture. And you guys

563
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: know that I talk about this all the time. There's

564
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: three types of people, right, I don't want to see it,

565
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: don't show it to me. I'll just see it once

566
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: so everybody knows what we're talking about and can't watch

567
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: it enough. And I've always been type three. And my

568
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: my logic behind it is like I just I don't

569
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: know I've my my ex wife gave berth and like

570
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: one of the most fascinating experiences of my life is

571
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 1: when I saw her take them take my babies from

572
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: her stomach in a C section, right two different times.

573
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: The first time, you know, we were so freaked out.

574
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: The babies came early. I saw a little bit, but

575
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: when my son came, like I watched the entire surgery.

576
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: I was like fascinated by I'm sitting there with popcorn.

577
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: This is amazing. And I always think, Okay, well guy,

578
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: everybody recovers, right, they'll be fine. Uh yeah, my opinion

579
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: changed last night. I mean, I still I have it

580
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: on I have the photo on my phone, but I

581
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: have it because I have to share it when allowed

582
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,959
Speaker 1: to with the doctors. Doctor Alan Shamrock, who's our ankle

583
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: and foot specialists with the Packers, helps us as well

584
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: thanks to him at Prevea, you know where he's been

585
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: kind of communicating. But I will tell you that.

586
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 8: Holy cow, that's awful.

587
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: Like I've experienced a lot of things, I've seen a

588
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: lot of stuff. That was a lot and just update

589
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: for anybody who saw it or doesn't care about it. Whatever,

590
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: he had surgery. They closed the wound thankfully. Yeah, they

591
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: they got the leg back in place, and I again,

592
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna play basketball again, I believe. But regardless of that,

593
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: we're just concerned about infection right now because that's what

594
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: happens with those open wounds, and we're just all our

595
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: prayers are with him and his family. The doctors in

596
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: Saint Paul have been amazing, but a Holy cow is

597
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: not ready for that, damn. So do any of those

598
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: videos or photos that I sent you guys on group text.

599
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: My bad won't be doing that in the future. This

600
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: is the new empathetic Doug Gottlieb understanding that that's a lot,

601
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: especially when you see it in person.

602
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, just to never it's never been my thing. I

603
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 8: I don't know if it started with Joe Thaisman. I

604
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 8: think that's when it when it did where it just was,

605
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 8: you know, you see that as a young kid and

606
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 8: there's no Yeah, just it's always been difficult for me

607
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 8: to see those things. I hope your player fully recovers

608
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 8: Dontrelle was that his name? Yes, Yeah, best wishes to him.

609
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a great kid, and you know he was

610
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: all loopy on on pain meds and he was trying

611
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: to get back on defense. You told me not to jump,

612
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: and I jumped like dontrell I. So don't don't care

613
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: about any mistakes you made right now. I just want

614
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: you to feel better. Oh that was rough. Stut Gottlieb

615
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: Show here on Fox Sports Radio. I'll ask you, Dan Byer,

616
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: if you were Kyle Shanahan, would you start rock Perty

617
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: for the Niners?

618
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 5: Yes?

619
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: Yes, Yeah. The way it works is like, look, in

620
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: addition to uh, in addition to the fact that rock

621
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: Purty has done nothing wrong other than MS games because

622
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: of injury, and we know that. You know, Mac Jones

623
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: has always been the apple of the eye. It's once

624
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: you give him that contract, it's his job unless he absolutely,

625
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: positively completely butchers it. There's just that that's that's the

626
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: way it works, is that they get right a first

627
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:41,479
Speaker 1: refusal if you will. And and the other part is

628
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: it kills leadership. You know, if you're brock Purty, you

629
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: have to be the unquestioned leader of the offense. And

630
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: if there's any hesitation between when you put him in

631
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: when you don't put him in, and if he's healthy,

632
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: a healthy, healthy, ready to go, that that kills his leadership. Well,

633
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: let me ask Mark Domink. Maybe he has a different opinion. Okay,

634
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 1: he's been a GM in the NFL, he's where the

635
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: NFL for twenty five years. He joins us here on

636
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio. I know you

637
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 1: don't want to say the guy who makes the most

638
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: money has to get, has to have right a first refusal,

639
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 1: but that is how it works, especially with brock Perty.

640
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: And it's not like it's not like, you know, he's

641
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: been replaced and Whalley pipped to that extent.

642
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 11: Yeah, No, I think you're absolutely right, and I think

643
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 11: it's a couple of different things, right. I Mean a

644
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 11: big point of this is Rock Perty has for the

645
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 11: most part, for Kyle Shanahan, John Lynch has been a winner,

646
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 11: and so you know, I know that you know, twenty

647
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 11: twenty four wasn't ideal and this year hasn't been great.

648
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 11: I don't think he's been himself, but he absolutely deserves

649
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 11: to be the first one out of the tunnel and

650
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 11: be on that field. I actually, Doug, I look at

651
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 11: it when you when you kind of look at the

652
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 11: NFC just in general, right, and you start to already

653
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 11: start to put the picture together of you know, what's

654
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 11: the standings, like, what's the conference look like? In the NFC?

655
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 11: To me, the one team that's on the outside looking

656
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,040
Speaker 11: in that still feels like they should be at the

657
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 11: top seven in the playoffs all the San Francisco forty

658
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 11: nine ers, and I think I would put Rock Pretty

659
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 11: in because I think they've got to just catch the

660
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 11: Chicago Bears, and I think the front of the seven

661
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 11: will all already be set. I don't think that the

662
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 11: Vikings are going to make a run. I don't think

663
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 11: Dallas will. I don't think Washington can. It's really coming

664
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,920
Speaker 11: down to the Kenda Bears. Hold on, I think the

665
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 11: forty nine ers with Rock Pretty can.

666
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio, Mark Dominic is our guest. Mark.

667
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: The Patriots turnaround was on full display yesterday. I'm interested

668
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: in Rock, not Rock Perty. Sorry, in Drake May. Where

669
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: did you have him evaluated in last year's NFL draft?

670
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 11: Yeah? It was tight, you know for me with Drake May,

671
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 11: I probably wasn't quite as high, but I mean I

672
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 11: liked him better than you know, the bow Nicks. I

673
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 11: liked him better than the Michael Pennix Because I'm just

674
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 11: not a huge as me. Though I love Steve Young,

675
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 11: I'm just not a huge left tended quarterback fan for

676
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 11: the way the ball spins for everybody, and so that's

677
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 11: kind of a little bit different. But that's you know,

678
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 11: it doesn't mean you're not going to take one. You know.

679
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 11: I was kind of more JJ McCarthy in that realm

680
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,919
Speaker 11: of like, you know, six through ten or six through

681
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 11: twelve is where I thought Drake May is. But he's

682
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 11: clearly proven me wrong. You know, the athletes there that

683
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 11: we get to see in terms of him running the football,

684
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 11: but the decision making getting the ball out, you know

685
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 11: making you know, I think the biggest thing with Drake

686
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 11: May is even games last last last night, when you

687
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 11: watch a younger quarterback be able to throw the ball

688
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 11: the way he can and end up close to three

689
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 11: hundred yards and and you know completing you know, almost

690
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 11: nine percent of his passes in yardsbur attempt at this

691
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 11: point in season. Those are great times when you realize

692
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 11: that your number two wide receiver is your tight end,

693
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 11: Like you really don't have a ton of ton of

694
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 11: weapons on the offensive side still at the receiver room

695
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 11: or the tight end room, and so when you get

696
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 11: to have a year where you're going to hopefully put

697
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 11: those in. That's pretty exciting. Well, and again, Josh McDaniels

698
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 11: is developing another quarterback and they're consistently putting thirty points

699
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 11: on the board every week. And with that, you should

700
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 11: win when you've got a Rabel defense.

701
00:36:55,719 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 1: Stull Gottlieb Show here on on Fox Sports Radio. Obviously,

702
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 1: the Jets are going to have to rebuild. They sold

703
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: off as many pieces as they can. What what what's

704
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: your belief that this coaching staff is the right staff

705
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: for the rebuild.

706
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 11: I just I think it will be. I would not

707
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 11: be one and done with Aaron Glenn. I just I

708
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 11: wouldn't do that. I just don't think that that's going

709
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 11: to really help anything at all. And I think I'm

710
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 11: just going to, you know, bite my tongue and believe

711
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 11: that I'm getting Dan Campbell Junior and that it's just

712
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 11: going to take a little time. And Dan Campbell probably

713
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 11: came in with a little bit better you know, situation

714
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 11: at quarterback for sure, but also, uh, some pieces were there.

715
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 11: I mean, the Jets now that Garrett Wilson's going to

716
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 11: I are and I know it's three to four weeks

717
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 11: or four weeks. I just don't think I put Garrett

718
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,959
Speaker 11: Wilson back on the football field this year. And there's

719
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 11: just no point. And they're battling the Titans right now

720
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 11: for the number one pick in the draft, and so

721
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 11: I think you stick with this staff. I think you

722
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 11: stick with this plan. Obviously, you know, coach Glenn I

723
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 11: soon bought into trading Sauce Gardner Quinn Williams, and so

724
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,919
Speaker 11: because he's bought into those things, I feel like you've

725
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 11: got to you know, he's thinking long term. I think

726
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 11: you can't have to think long term with him. And

727
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 11: does that mean you know, four or five years now,

728
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 11: but it doesn't mean two or at least three. Yes,

729
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 11: I think you do. And I think Jets Man's just

730
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 11: got to understand that that's just the way it should be,

731
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 11: because that's the only way to really kind of start

732
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 11: to build a culture.

733
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,760
Speaker 1: Agree with you, So, Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox

734
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:26,720
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Building a culture is is really is is everything. Okay,

735
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 1: let's let's scatter around the league a little bit. Uh,

736
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: Brian Dable getting fired? What were your thoughts of why

737
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:34,439
Speaker 1: they did it? Now?

738
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 11: No, I didn't love it. Uh, you know, just because

739
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 11: I felt like, you know, what's the rush in terms

740
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 11: of what they've got to get done? Why do they

741
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 11: feel like they need to hurry up and and and

742
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 11: and like go of a coach when you've got time,

743
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 11: like there's time here to kind of sit back and

744
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 11: kind of see how the season folds for a few

745
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 11: more weeks. He's obviously, you know, got to stop Jackson.

746
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 11: You know, Jackson dart from you know, launching them with

747
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 11: his head in every run. But at least here was

748
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 11: oat with Jackson dark like that's why you had him there.

749
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 11: I thought, so to turn around and give it to

750
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 11: myke Cafka, uh and to say, look, we're going to

751
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 11: move on. Maybe there was some rumblings on the inside

752
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 11: of the organization that was a little bit more uh

753
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 11: loud than I guess I would have thought. And so

754
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 11: I my thunking is that I don't love it. I

755
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 11: would have waited probably until like the last month and

756
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 11: just until December if I was going to do it.

757
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 11: You're already, Doug. You know how this works in the

758
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 11: coaching world that the GM has already got a list

759
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 11: in his in his in his desk of who he's

760
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 11: going to you know, start to interview and who he's

761
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 11: going to start to move forward with. I guess the

762
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 11: only right thing here to say is if they knew

763
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 11: they were going to do it, and they're going to

764
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 11: keep Joe Shane, which they said they're going to, then

765
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 11: if you're going to peel the band aid off, go ahead.

766
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 11: But the only thing it gets me pause is if

767
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 11: Kapka comes in and does okay, does he automatically get

768
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 11: do they do they do the search they way they

769
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 11: could or should. I'm not rooting against Kafka. I think

770
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 11: he's a smart, young, you know, former quarterback. But I

771
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 11: thought it was a month too early.

772
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 1: Uh got show here on Fox Sports Radio that is

773
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: the voice of Mark Dominic. He joins, us, I agree,

774
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 1: month too early? Like what what is the point? I mean?

775
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: I guess they want to give Kafka a good a

776
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: good run here, But yeah, it just strikes me as

777
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: odd in terms of in terms of the timing, Like

778
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: if you think Kafrika can be the head coach and

779
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: he's coached with you, he can still be the head coach,

780
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: Like that's not doesn't really change when you're running an

781
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: organization as a as an interim. Denver's eight and two.

782
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: They welcome in Kansas City, but they really struggled offensively,

783
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 1: really struggled. How fixable is the quarterback situation there?

784
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 11: I think it is fixable. I mean, you know, this

785
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 11: is a team that's over the last couple of weeks,

786
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 11: has certainly struggled. I mean it was you know, you

787
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 11: don't ever want to see only ten points against the Raiders.

788
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 11: You feel like that's a huge mistake. But if you

789
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 11: just take a couple and I know you've got Monti Kiffin,

790
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 11: our defensive coordinator in Tampa for years, we would always

791
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 11: have Monday morning meetings after games, and you know, it

792
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 11: would be like what went right, what went wrong? And

793
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 11: mine if even always if we just want to give

794
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 11: it up that one ad R pass play, we'd have

795
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 11: had much better statistics and the coach done you, Risley,

796
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 11: But MANI we gave up that play, right. And so

797
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 11: you know, if you if you look at the Denver Broncos,

798
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 11: they put forty points on the board, they put thirty

799
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,319
Speaker 11: points on the board. It's there. I think it can

800
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 11: be there. I think the running game is the thing

801
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 11: that's really been hard for them to kind of, you know,

802
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 11: really find the consistency. Even though you know, obviously Dobbins

803
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 11: has carried the ball over one hundred fifty times, I

804
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 11: still feel confident. I think bow Knicks has played well.

805
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 11: I think you're looking for him to take strides as

806
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 11: the season goes along towards the end of the season.

807
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 11: He did that last year, and I think he'll do

808
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 11: that this year. You know, this is a good time

809
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 11: for them to have a buy they come out, They've

810
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 11: got some road games, but they've got some winnable games

811
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 11: on this schedule of the next month with Washington, the

812
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 11: Raiders again in Jaguars. I think it's going to put

813
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 11: them in position where they're going to make the postseason.

814
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 11: I don't see them as being a jugger not in

815
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 11: the postseason. But you know, this offense I think will

816
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 11: come back and be more than twenty to twenty eight

817
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 11: point squading team. And I think you'll see that right

818
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 11: when they come out of the Spy. It's a good

819
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 11: time for them after they get this Chiefs games out

820
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 11: of the way.

821
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, why

822
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 1: were the Packers so conservative offensively against the Eagles?

823
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think they didn't want to beat themselves, Doug.

824
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 11: I think that was the big concern, is like how

825
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 11: do we not beat ourselves in this game instead of

826
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 11: like let's go be aggressive. And I think coach Laflore

827
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 11: talked about that a little bit, and that's the way

828
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 11: I felt like. I felt they went in the game going, hey, look,

829
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 11: if we don't turn the ball over, we don't make mistakes,

830
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 11: we're gonna win this game. And instead it was too

831
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 11: conservative in my opinion, and that kind of cost him

832
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 11: the opportunity. I know, you know, Jordan Love didn't have

833
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,240
Speaker 11: his best night by any stretch. You know the sacks

834
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 11: and you know the completion percentage. But I think that

835
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 11: was the main thing is I looked at it the day,

836
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 11: We're going to run the ball, we're gonna not make mistakes,

837
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 11: and we're gonna win this game. But instead what happened was,

838
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 11: you know, they they got sacks, Jordan Love had the fumble.

839
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:53,840
Speaker 11: I think they had two fumbles they gave. Jacobs had

840
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,839
Speaker 11: the fumble also, right, So I think it was that

841
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 11: it was playing too safe, too casual. I think the

842
00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 11: Packers are good enough offense where they got to push

843
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 11: it and then know that Tucker Craft's not there, But

844
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 11: I feel confident with the with the still with Luke

845
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 11: Musgrave and the group they have, they can still push

846
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 11: the ball down the field. And I think you got

847
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:08,360
Speaker 11: to see them do that.

848
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: Okay, what about the Eagles, Like they won, AJ Brown

849
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 1: still upset and having been at the game, Like I understand,

850
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 1: like I'm a coach, right, Like I don't want to

851
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 1: hear any of any of complaining. We won the game

852
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 1: in Lambeau. But it doesn't take a blind man to

853
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: point out like they don't really utilize him. I don't really.

854
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: It's not like they're even using them as a decoy.

855
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: They're just kind of running offense and trying to win ugly,

856
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 1: which has worked for them. They won a Super Bowl,

857
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: but in another Super Bowl. I get it. Uh, but

858
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: he does have a little bit of a little bit

859
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: of a point. What are your thoughts on the lack

860
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 1: of utilization of AJ Brown?

861
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, he's inactive against the Giants, comes back

862
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 11: and only sees three targets before that. You know, I

863
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 11: know he complained a little bit when he looked back.

864
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 11: You know, you're still averaging eight to nine targets a game.

865
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 11: And to me, yeah, do you want as a receiver,

866
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 11: would you like that fourteen or fifteenth Sure, But if

867
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,359
Speaker 11: you're getting targeted consistently eight to ten times a game,

868
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 11: that should be what you're a chance to win a championship,

869
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 11: and you've got Smith on the other side, that should

870
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 11: be balanced that you were kind of looking for. I

871
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 11: expect them to look at AJ Brown this week and

872
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 11: see him more consistently in that way in terms of

873
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 11: you know, getting him the football, you know, making sure

874
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 11: that he's got the opportunity to see the ball come

875
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 11: to him at least eight to ten times. And I

876
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 11: would be shocked if they didn't. I think that that's

877
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 11: exactly what they'll want to do. I think we'll see

878
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 11: that against the Lions on Sunday night. And I think

879
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 11: that it's not because A. J. Brown's complaining, it's just

880
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 11: that I think that's what they want to be. They've

881
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 11: shown it early in the season. I think they'll show

882
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 11: it again. They came out of that game against the

883
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 11: Giants he didn't address They slow rolled in against you know,

884
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 11: the next week and three three targets. But this week,

885
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 11: I think you'll see the eight to ten targets like

886
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 11: we normally do.

887
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: Stug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, let's

888
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 1: let's talk some Steelers football, shall we. I mean, man

889
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: hammered by the Chargers, and the Chargers are so banged up, right,

890
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: so banged up. But more than anything, like Aaron Rodgers,

891
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:12,359
Speaker 1: it's not trending in the way of being better. Can

892
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 1: they get this thing to a reasonable place like there,

893
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: look there, Mike Tomlin's the master of being you know,

894
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,720
Speaker 1: nine and eight, right, nine and eight, just above five hundred.

895
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: But that's what it feels like. This team is getting

896
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: back towards and it was one that went all in.

897
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: Is there any fixing where they are on this trend?

898
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 11: It's it's number one for I think Aaron Rodgers finding

899
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 11: that number two receiver when you watch that game, you

900
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,280
Speaker 11: saw it, you know, the ball just ricochet and ot

901
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,919
Speaker 11: receiver's hands that are wide open and they just can't

902
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 11: make the play. You know. Having Metcalfs one thing, but

903
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 11: having somebody else that can really compliment him is really

904
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 11: what's lacking in Pittsburgh. And yeah, that could have been

905
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 11: George Pickens and we'll see how that all plays out.

906
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 11: But I got to think Omar Kahn, Mike Tomlin this offseason.

907
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 11: That's got to be a number one important thing to do.

908
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 11: The second thing is, you know, I like Warren, it

909
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 11: just doesn't feel like he's really the They're using him

910
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 11: as the number one back, but just doesn't feel like

911
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 11: that's a typical Steelers type of running back as well,

912
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 11: and he's good to catch the ball back, so I

913
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 11: think he's a good player. But those are the two

914
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,799
Speaker 11: things where I think offensally, but I think mainly it's

915
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 11: finding the number two outlet for him and if it's

916
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,959
Speaker 11: not a running back. John new Smith I think played

917
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 11: himself for this contract, but I've never felt like he's

918
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 11: uber consistent across the board, and I think the Steelers

919
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 11: are seeing that, So I think that's really what it is.

920
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 11: You know, obviously the defense has been hot and cold,

921
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 11: and as they get to the quarterback that certainly changes everything.

922
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,919
Speaker 11: And that's the other part is that I'm surprised where

923
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 11: the Steelers past rush is at this point of the season.

924
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 11: I would have expected it to be much stronger. I mean,

925
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 11: I know they've still got thirty two sacks, but I

926
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,360
Speaker 11: really thought that you know what would be around ten already.

927
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 11: I thought her big would be at like eight or ten,

928
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,719
Speaker 11: because I think he's a sending player that's going to

929
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,400
Speaker 11: make a ton of money in free agency for somebody

930
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 11: if he can't stay in Pittsburgh. So I thought they'd

931
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 11: still be getting out the quarterback more. But I think

932
00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 11: it comes down to Aaron Rodgers trusting the skill set

933
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 11: guys around him and making those plays against the Chargers

934
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 11: they did.

935
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: Not us. That's the voice of reason, that's the voice

936
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: of of Mark Dominic spent over twenty years in the

937
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: NFL front office as forum general manager of the tamp

938

939
