1
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre.

2
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 2: What is up, straight Firefam, It's me Jason McIntyre, Straight

3
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: Fire for Tuesday, December tenth. I need everybody listening to

4
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: this podcast this morning to reach out to one of

5
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 2: their Cowboys buddies, somebody who's rooted for the Dallas Cowboys

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 2: for more than a decade, preferably twenty years plus, and

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 2: just send them a text. Man, Hey, hey, hang in there.

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 2: This is not rock bottom, but you're close. Oh my gosh,

9
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 2: what a brutal, just an excruciating loss for the Dallas Cowboys. Listen.

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: I don't even know where to begin with that blocked punt.

11
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a phenomenal ending. If you had

12
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 2: the Bengals one, it's five and a half. If you

13
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: had the over, like me, you're wondering how the hell

14
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: there was seven hundred and fifty yards of total offense,

15
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: there were four red zone trips by each team, and

16
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: we land on forty seven and we could not get

17
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: to the over. Football is unbelievable right now. NFL is

18
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 2: just crazy. Some of these results are just unbelievably bad.

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 2: For me. That one hurt. Obviously, Bengals should have it

20
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: should have cruised over. But how about if you're a

21
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 2: Cowboys fan this morning, I mean, you don't care about

22
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: the gambling. You just are like, can we do anything? Correct?

23
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: I mean, folks, here's the setting. If you missed it,

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 2: if you were like, you know, I don't know, watching

25
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: Wolf of Wall Street, which seems to be showing every

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: day now on showtime. And yes, I tune in most

27
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: times when I'm flipping through the channels and I see

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 2: it on. But let's just quickly go over this unbelievable

29
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: turn of events at the end of the game. So

30
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: it's twenty all, okay, the teams are trading punts because

31
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: just of colossal ineptitude, the Bengals offensive line is horrendous.

32
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: Cannot protect Joe Burrow or to quote the Immortal movie

33
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: The Last Boy Scout when Bruce Willis was tasked to

34
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: protect halle Berry. Spoiler alert, the movie's over twenty five

35
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: years old. I can do that. Damon Wayans is dating

36
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: halle Berry and comes up to him and he goes,

37
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 2: you couldn't protect a cup of warm piss, says it.

38
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if Rob do, You'll have to blink

39
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 2: that out. But and I just busted up laughing the

40
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,839
Speaker 2: first time I saw it, and then every other time

41
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 2: I saw it, it just brought a smile to my face

42
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: because that's funny. They could not protect Joe Burrow all night.

43
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: So the Bengals are forced to punt kick it back

44
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: to Cooper rush right. So there at the time of

45
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 2: the punt, it's fourth and twenty seven. Okay, so there's

46
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: no shot there getting it, and you're like, okay, maybe

47
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 2: Cooper Rushka works a magic Brandon Aubrey can hit a

48
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: field goal, you know, and the Cowboys can win. Obviously,

49
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 2: that does nothing for me. Overtime at that point does

50
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: nothing for me. So I just figured the total was shot.

51
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: And this kid drops back to punt, it is blocked

52
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: by the Cowboys. It went looked to look at off

53
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 2: his fingertips, maybe a little off the face mask, goes

54
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: in the air, takes a bounce, and then a Cowboys

55
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 2: player named rule A Wale I think he was forty two,

56
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: tries to just field it and all this was like

57
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 2: a little bityond the out line of scrimmage. The guy's

58
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: all excited. He's like, oh shit, I gotta I can

59
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 2: scoop this and score and he botches the recovery. It

60
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 2: like goes off his hands. That's why he's a defender

61
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 2: and not an offensive player. The ball drops to the ground,

62
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 2: the Bengals recover, and because the Cowboys had had a

63
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 2: shot at after blocking it, the Bengals retain possession. I mean,

64
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: it was just the If you look at both sidelines

65
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 2: watching the reactions from McCarthy, they're like, yes, yes, oh

66
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: my god, no, it is instant surrender Cobra. Meanwhile, the

67
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: Bengals side is the exact opposite. And then, of course

68
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: you know what happened. Three plays later, Joe Burrow out

69
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 2: to Jamar Chase. He puts one move on the defensive

70
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: back and see you turn on the after burners. Now

71
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: there was slight concern that Chase would go down inside

72
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: the five. I don't know if he just did care,

73
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 2: or maybe there was concern on his part that the

74
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: Cowboys had all three of their timeouts, which they did,

75
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: that they would use them and then they would still

76
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: have a shot with Cooper rush Lake. Chase didn't care

77
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: about any of that. Wisely scores the touchdown, capping an

78
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: incredible game for Jamar Chase. Unfortunately, I had t Higgins

79
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: in fantasy. He didn't quite get there. Jamar Chase eighteen targets,

80
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: had fourteen catches for a bucks seventy seven and two scores.

81
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: He just cooked the Cowboys secondary, which is overrated. We

82
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 2: know it hasn't been good in years. I'm trying to

83
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 2: look for the guy who got I don't know if

84
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 2: it was Jordan Lewis who missed the time, might have

85
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: been CJ. Godwin or no. I think it was actually

86
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 2: Bland and just gets roasted to the end zone. And

87
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 2: then of course Cooper Rush gets the ball back. Can

88
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 2: he go down the field? Of course he can't. It's

89
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 2: the Cowboys and the Bengals, according to some playoff calculators,

90
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: are not mathematically eliminated. They are I don't know, I'll

91
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: call it their own life support and not down yet.

92
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 2: They are currently tenth in the AFC, behind Miami, which

93
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: is out, behind Indy, which is out for now. And

94
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 2: this week, all of a sudden, based on that Bengals result,

95
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 2: Cincinnati fans are kind of sort of giddy, like, oh

96
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 2: wait a minute, we got Tennessee this week. We could

97
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 2: go win that game, and it feels like there's an

98
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 2: elimination game. Unfortunately, between the Broncos and the Colts in Denver.

99
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 2: If the Colts lose, Denver gets to nine wins, Colts

100
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 2: are done. I don't see how the Bengals could catch

101
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: the Broncos. What the Bengals would then need would be

102
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: Chargers to collapse on multiple fronts and they would have

103
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: to create around in the playoffs. There's a small chance

104
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens fallout. That's very unlikely since they play

105
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: the Giants this week. The Giants Brian Dabole, we can

106
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 2: get into that. The NFL is just getting just crazy.

107
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 2: I firmly believe the Bengals are done. I don't think

108
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 2: they have any show the Cowboys. If you're wondering sixteen

109
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 2: teams in the NFC, they are currently thirteenth, tied with

110
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: the New Orleans Saints, and it's just people are trying

111
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 2: to make a case that McCarthy could come back, and

112
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 2: I'll give him credit. Some of these teams we see

113
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: just downright quitting. Okay, total no shows. Give Dallas credit

114
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: since Dak has gone down. Yeah, they've gotten their ass kicked,

115
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 2: but they've been competitive for a half. Some of these

116
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 2: other teams, I mean, this Chicago thing, I still can't

117
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: get over three hundred and ten yards to four at

118
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: one point late late second quarter, like that's a no show.

119
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: Dallas ain't doing that in the first half. Yeah, they

120
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: did get blitzed by Philly, but at halftime that was

121
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: a game. That was a one score game. The Texans

122
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: ran away and hit in the second half, but at halftime,

123
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: Dallas was in that thing. Dallas came out beat Washington,

124
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 2: they beat the Giants. They were feisty with the Bengals

125
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: until the end. You know, they're hanging around and I

126
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: got to give McCarthy credit. He's coaching them up. And

127
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: now you've got Overshown goes down, who's been awesome this

128
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: season for Dallas, and it's like, man, they just cannot

129
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: wait a minute. They lost their starting center as well,

130
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: Cooper Bebe to a concussion. Oh man, this is no bueno.

131
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy said. Overshown's knee injury is serious in nature,

132
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: and he missed his rookie season last year with a

133
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 2: torn acl in his left knee. This was his I believe, yeah,

134
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 2: right leg, which is not good. The offensive line is

135
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: just total. It's brutal. And Dallas plays Carolina next week.

136
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: I think the thing to watch in that game is

137
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: NFL draft pick situation. I'm all into NFL Draft at

138
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 2: this point. I'm looking at the website. I told you

139
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 2: guys about Tankathon with the top of the draft in

140
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 2: all seriousness, at this point in the season, as we

141
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: head into I don't know what is it Week fourteen.

142
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: Maybe ten teams matter, that's it. Detroit, k C, Philly, Buffalo, Minnesota, Pittsburgh,

143
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: Green Bay. I'll put Houston in there, but they don't

144
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: really matter. Baltimore does matter. They could do some damage.

145
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 2: Seattle I think could be feisty. They have won four

146
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: in a row. There's an outside chance with it. The

147
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: matchups are right, they're at home. They got a shot

148
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 2: at doing some things I don't. I mean, Denver kind

149
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 2: of is interesting, but I don't particularly think so. The

150
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 2: Chargers I'm into. As soon as they get Mconukee back,

151
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna be awesome. Washington, sure, Tampa, that's where it

152
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 2: starts to fade. So fine, I'll give you twelve teams

153
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: kind of Oh no, let me add the Rams in Sanfree.

154
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: We'll go bump it up to fourteen. Fourteen teams matter.

155
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: That's over half the league just totally irrelevant right now.

156
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: I'm talking completely useless Vegas Giants. I mean, these Patriots,

157
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 2: this is so much unwatchable drek. And then you look

158
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 2: at the schedule for this week and you're like, oh,

159
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: what do we got? Oh I'm sorry, it's week fifteen

160
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: and the Thursday night game Rams forty nine Ers is awesome,

161
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 2: but you've got some real garbage on the men. Look

162
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 2: look at these one pm games Ravens Giants. The spread's

163
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: gonna be fourteen plus massive. You have Gian Jets, Jaguars.

164
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 2: Nobody's watching that. Cowboys Panthers. Oh my gosh, that is brutal.

165
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: I think Jaden Daniels off the buy. I do believe

166
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: people would be interested in Washington Saints and Drew Locke

167
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 2: sounds like he's done for the season with a hand,

168
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 2: a left hand injury, not his throwing hand. Cincinnati Tennessee

169
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 2: not really interesting. And then you have KC. Cleveland. I

170
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: mean that's not a good game. Maybe Casey screws up,

171
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: but overall, like, look at how bad that's latest. And

172
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: at four o'clock though, we got a bunch of games,

173
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 2: which is nice, so very exciting Week fifteen ahead, but

174
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: there's actually some good storylines that are percolated right now

175
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: that I'm super into.

Speaker 1: to listen live.

180
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: There's actually two stories out there in the NFL that

181
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: I believe were better than that game last night and

182
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: way more interesting. So for starters. This Bill Belichick North

183
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 2: Carolina dalliance is fascinating on so many levels. Just hear

184
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 2: me out here. So when the story first broke, everybody's

185
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: thought was, Oh, he's just using North Carolina his leverage.

186
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 2: He ain't going to North Carolina. Bill Belichick's going to

187
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 2: Chapel Hill to take over for Mac Brown. Come on,

188
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: get the hell out of here. Nobody's buying that, right,

189
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 2: And then the news comes out that on Sunday, Bill

190
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 2: Belichick spent five hours, yes, five five hours with the

191
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: North Carolina Tarviels. And at that point you're like, wait

192
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 2: a minute, that's more than a cup of coffee or

193
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: a LOOKXI or something we can link to the media

194
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 2: to gain leverage. That is something real. And then the

195
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 2: plot thickens more. There is a reporter. Now, I'm not

196
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 2: familiar with this and it hasn't been officially confirmed by

197
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 2: Schefter or Rapaport or anybody. This guy writes for The Guardian,

198
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: which is a London paper, and I'm gonna go ahead

199
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 2: and guess he's a brit His name is Ali Connolly.

200
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 2: He says, I'm told Bill Belichick's negotiations with North Carolina

201
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 2: include a guarantee that Steven Belichick, his son, will be

202
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: named the school's head coach in waiting. UNC is open

203
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: to that. According to this Ali Connolly guy, discussions are

204
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: not a bid to gain leverage for NFL offers, and

205
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: Bill is open to the move. Now I don't know Connolly.

206
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 2: I don't know if he went to North Carolina. I

207
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 2: don't know what's going on here. But I've never heard

208
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: of this dude. And that's a that's super interesting, and

209
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 2: I you know that kind of tracks right. Belichick'sill gonna

210
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: set his son up for success. And then he goes

211
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 2: on to say this, which I thought was maybe a

212
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: bridge too far. But any potential staff would include Matt Patricia,

213
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 2: Ben McDaniels, who is the Texans passing game coordinator, brother

214
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 2: John USh, as well as a sitting college GM who

215
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 2: would handle general operations, NIL, recruiting, all that fun stuff. Folks.

216
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 2: This is where it starts to get interesting, because all

217
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 2: of a sudden you start hearing this, and then I

218
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 2: guess one of these reporters in Carolina dug up a

219
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 2: photo of Bill Belichick on the North Carolina campus in

220
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: like nineteen fifty when he was like a three year

221
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: old kid or whatever it is. And it turns out

222
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 2: that Belichick's dad coached football at North Carolina. So all

223
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you start adding stuff up, and you're like,

224
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 2: wait a second, could this shit really happen? Is there

225
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 2: something here? Is it possible? On the surface, it's very

226
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 2: difficult to see Bill Belichick saying goodbye Boston, I am

227
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 2: going to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and I am going

228
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: to coach the football team. I'm taking over for Mac Brown.

229
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 2: It's like, come on, come on, nobody's buying that now.

230
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: I will just say my limited experience in Chapel Hill.

231
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 2: So this summer, after I got out of college, I

232
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 2: got an internship at the Greensboro News and Record newspaper.

233
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 2: You guys surely know what newspapers are. And I go

234
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 2: down to Greensboro to live for the summer, and I

235
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: had like, you know, a random roommate who was also

236
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: one of the interns. It was, I think a girl

237
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 2: who we didn't really get along because I wasn't there

238
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 2: a lot, you know. I'm like, as soon as we

239
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: get to Greensboro, I'm like, oh, you know, I'm still

240
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: in college mode. I'm like, Greensboro, it's kind of dead.

241
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: And I had a buddy who also just graduated, and

242
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: he was in Chapel Hill and his brother lived there

243
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 2: and they had you know, a little bit of layer

244
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: of the land. And so the first weekend I drive up,

245
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 2: it's like graduation weekend and Chapel Hill is just popping.

246
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 2: I mean every bar is just slammed. I was like, oh,

247
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: hell yes. And then like the next weekend, we checked

248
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 2: out Raleigh and I ended up meet meeting this girl

249
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 2: who worked at We met her at some I think

250
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: we went to a bar and she ended up working

251
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 2: at like this department store, like maybe in the makeup department.

252
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: We kind of hit it off, started hanging out, and

253
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: every weekend I'm in Raleigh chap and it's just awesome

254
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: and that area is really cool. A lot of young people.

255
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 2: We know Bill Belichick's now dating a twenty four to

256
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: twenty five year old maybe the girlfriend. And this is

257
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 2: not like a secret you can't remember. Before it was like, ooh,

258
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 2: don't talk about it. Belichick's dating someone who's like forty

259
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 2: plus years younger than him. Now it's like they're on

260
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 2: the red carpet and stuff, and this is like real,

261
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: and you know, I don't know what's going on there.

262
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: Bottom line, Bill Belichick old as you know what. He's

263
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 2: a boomer and he's dating like a twenty four year old, okay,

264
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: and what if she's like, hey, yeah, college campus, let's

265
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 2: head down there. I don't know Belichick this whole idea

266
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 2: of him automatically saying NFL NFL, It's like, come on,

267
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 2: why wouldn't he do college? And this is where it

268
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: gets interesting. So I've been reading about Dion Sanders and

269
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 2: his recruiting and everybody's like, oh, Bill Belichick's got to

270
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 2: be recruiting and deal with these punk kids. No, no shot,

271
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 2: hol hold on. There are reports out there that Dion

272
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: has never done one of these house calls where he

273
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 2: goes to the parents' living room and is selling the kids.

274
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 2: He's just not doing that, maybe because he doesn't freaking

275
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 2: need to. He's Dion Sanders. I don't know that it's

276
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 2: possible that that's the case. And do you think Bill

277
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: Belichick's going to be jumping on a private jet and

278
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: be flying across the country to pluck kids out of

279
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 2: you know, Robinsville, Nebraska. I'm just making up a city.

280
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: I don't even know if that exists, But I mean,

281
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: just this idea that Belichick has got to be flying

282
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 2: around and convinced kids to go to North Carolina. That's

283
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: not how it works. Guys. People want to go to

284
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 2: Alabama because they're always awesome and it's a good path

285
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 2: to the NFL. Nick Saban when he was there, Georgia

286
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: Juggernaut facility is amazing. Look around the country at some

287
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 2: of these programs. You're telling me, if Bill Belichick doesn't

288
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 2: go to North Carolina and a recruit doesn't on campus visit,

289
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: Bill walks in the room. I mean, you know, puts

290
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: his Super Bowl rings down on the desk. How are

291
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 2: your son? Yep? What do you want to get out

292
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 2: of life? You know, he starts grilling the kid. You're

293
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: telling me that kid's not gonna be in all, even

294
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 2: the young pups right now, These young twenty twenty one,

295
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 2: twenty two year old guys in the portal, they know Belichick. Folks.

296
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 2: A decade ago, when they were ten or twelve years old,

297
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: the Patriots ruled the friggin league. Okay, with Tom Brady,

298
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 2: you're telling me there's guys in the portal and high

299
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: school kids aren't gonna want to go to North Carolina

300
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 2: to be coached by Belichick. And I know, I know

301
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 2: some people say, but he ended so badly? Are we

302
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: two decades? I think it was twenty four seasons in

303
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 2: New England, or maybe maybe he's twenty one in New

304
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 2: England and three in Cleveland, whatever the number is, And

305
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: you're gonna boil it down to ooh at the end,

306
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 2: he didn't do a good job. What about all the

307
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 2: Super Bowls? Why we gotta be so negative? And it's like, damn, wait,

308
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: I could play for Belichick. Oh shit, that's kind of

309
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: sort of interesting. And let's just take a kid like

310
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 2: Miller Moss out here at USC Okay, I ever thought

311
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 2: he was anything special and then he has that Bowl

312
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 2: game where he chucks like five touchdowns. Everybody's a gast up.

313
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: He beats LSU. Everything's looking good, and then he ends

314
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: up getting benched. He's like, I'm out, I'm transferring. Okay,

315
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 2: Miller Moss at times looked like maybe he could have

316
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: been drafted. I'm not saying high or anything, but mid

317
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 2: round pick whatever. And now Miller Moss is going to

318
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 2: enter the transfer portal. Bro, you could go to North

319
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 2: Carolina and play for Belichick? Are you definitely turning that down?

320
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 2: Like I I gotta be honest, that to me is

321
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 2: super attractive if I'm a twenty twenty two year old.

322
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 2: The guys won super Bowls. He knows what it takes

323
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 2: to get in the NFL. Now, I know he had

324
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 2: a poor drafting record there at the end. Really are

325
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: we doing or is that what we're doing? Hey? Bill

326
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 2: Belichick had six bad drafts at the end, Like, seriously, guys,

327
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 2: I don't know. I can't get too worked up about that.

328
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 2: I find fascinating on multiple levels that the path to

329
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: the college football playoff in the ACC is pretty damn good.

330
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: You're telling me that SMU, which had a good I

331
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 2: think their quarterbacks coming back, Like okay, great charm season, wonderful.

332
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 2: Who else do we have? We have Clemson, which has

333
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 2: perennially been good, but they're not hitting the portal. We

334
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: know Bill's gonna hammer the portal, and I think he's

335
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: gonna get kind of his pick of the litter, because

336
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 2: that's what Deon Sanders didn't look at that. What is

337
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 2: a year two at Colorado when he's already turned things around.

338
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 2: It doesn't take long when you could bring in a

339
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 2: bunch of twenty one, twenty two, twenty three year olds

340
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 2: as opposed to eighteen and nineteen year olds. And I

341
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 2: think this actually makes a lot of sense for Belichick.

342
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 2: You get to get the band back together in North Carolina.

343
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: You live like kings, right, I mean probably in the

344
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 2: top one percent in the state of North Carolina for earnings, right,

345
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick. And then you get to hand the baton

346
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 2: to your son, Steven. And oh, by the way, you

347
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 2: guys are now coaching at the same university where your

348
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 2: dad coached and Bill briefly lived when he was a kid.

349
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 2: I'm sure he doesn't remember it, but to me, that

350
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 2: is just super cool and I'm really into that. And

351
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: I gotta be honest with you, I think there's a

352
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 2: big opportunity here for Belichick to do some things. Remember,

353
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 2: according to this report, he ain't handling recruiting an NIL.

354
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 2: You get a collective, and you know it's in part

355
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 2: of the selling point is Hey, you know in the

356
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 2: last five years we had Sam Howell and Drake Meghan

357
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,719
Speaker 2: here right in North Carolina. Yeah, just FYI we had

358
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 2: those guys. They're in the pros now. I think Sam

359
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: Howell is still in the league. And then the GM role,

360
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I get to work with Belichick, Bill,

361
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 2: what do you want? What can I get you? Mister

362
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 2: Belichick probably could learn more football working in that GM

363
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 2: office at North Carolina with Belichick in six months that

364
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: you could learn anywhere else. Now Andrew luck is now

365
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 2: a GM at Stanford. I'm not going to go through

366
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 2: the best players in the history of North Carolina football

367
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 2: to see who they could get in their collective. But

368
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: I guarantee you whatever they had in there, it wasn't

369
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: much because they weren't getting top flight recruits all of

370
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: a sudden, I'm gonna go ahead and guess that a

371
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 2: lot of people are going to open up the pocket

372
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: books and want to get on board with North Carolina

373
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: and Belichick. Now I know Belichick not much of a

374
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 2: glad hander.

375
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: Yes.

376
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 2: I saw a lot of former players of his go

377
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 2: on air and be like, yeah, no, there's no way

378
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 2: Belichick's doing that, And that's all entirely possible to Maybe

379
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 2: this is a ruse, a cunning attempt to get NFL

380
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: teams to be like, uh, Bill, yeah, could we talk

381
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 2: to you? Because remember last year, nobody wanted to talk

382
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 2: to him except the Atlanta Falcons. And even then it

383
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: was like the front office was like, Ooh, I don't know, guys,

384
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 2: I don't know Bellot, he's gonna want power. Na, na, No,

385
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 2: let's we got a good thing here. Oh do you

386
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 2: do you really? You got Kirk Cousins, you drafted Pennix,

387
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 2: and now you guys are so bad in the last

388
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 2: four games, you fall into second in the division, and

389
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, it's like, oh, is Ray Morris

390
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 2: keeping his job? Is Kirk Cousins even gonna be there

391
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 2: next year? All of a sudden getting kind of weird

392
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 2: in Atlanta? And they were the only ones who kicked

393
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 2: the tires on Belichick. But I'm surprised that he hasn't

394
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 2: had more offers from NFL teams. It really is shocking

395
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 2: to me. Because again, I'm just gonna put this out there.

396
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: He's arguably the best coach in football history. He's super

397
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 2: supremely motivated given how things ended in New England. He

398
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 2: saw Brady move on and get a Super Bowl ring.

399
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: You don't think he wants to do the same thing,

400
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 2: whether it's a natty, which is a little bit of

401
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: a longer shot, but you go to the right spot

402
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 2: and it's like, you know what, would you rather totally

403
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 2: rule the roost in North Carolina or go be the

404
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 2: Jets head coach or the Saints head coach? Like that's

405
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 2: not attractive? Who wants that? You know? I honestly I

406
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 2: think this North Carolina thing's fascinating.

Speaker 1: listen live.

411
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 2: Also super interesting is what's going on with the Philadelphia Eagles.

412
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: My goodness, this is not good. They've won nine in

413
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: a row and there's some issues in the locker room.

414
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 2: So Brandon Graham was on? Was this a radio show?

415
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 2: I'm not sure where Brandon Graham was, but you know,

416
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 2: he's been a leader in that locker room for a while. Oh,

417
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 2: it looks like he went on a radio station WIP

418
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 2: in Philly, and uh, I don't I guess he. I

419
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,160
Speaker 2: don't know why he would do this. But Brandon Graham says,

420
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 2: I know that Jalen Hurts is trying and AJ Brown

421
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: could be better with how he responds to things. They

422
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:31,479
Speaker 2: were friends, but things have changed. What okay, I get it.

423
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 2: AJ Brown's not happy. He's not getting the touches he

424
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 2: used to. I understand that, But why are you blaming

425
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts? Isn't that more blame about Kellen Moore and

426
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni and their game plan, which by the way,

427
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 2: is working. That's the weirdest part in all this. It's like,

428
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 2: if you're winning, why are you complaining? And that's why

429
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 2: the AJ Brown video, which we touched on yesterday was

430
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 2: so troubling. It's like, hey, you guys won. I know

431
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: it wasn't sharp and you didn't look particularly great and

432
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 2: A J. Brown had four catches for forty three yards,

433
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: which I guess is unacceptable by his standards. But we're

434
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 2: at the point now where in the NFL, if you're

435
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 2: covering a team, you know what the move is, just

436
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 2: find the wide receiver and one of them is gonna

437
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: be disgruntled. You guys, remember the Malik Neighbors video from

438
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago. He's pissed off, he's still angry.

439
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 2: I saw they ask Malik Neighbors about that that airplane

440
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 2: that was towing a message in the sky calling the

441
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 2: Giants a dumpster fire. And Melik Neighbors, you know, chewing

442
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 2: his gum hard, looks around and says, I ain't hired

443
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 2: a plane and that was it. It's like, you just

444
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 2: find these wide receivers. They're disgruntled. And I mean, they

445
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 2: got a huge game Philly does against Pittsburgh this week,

446
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 2: and I wonder if people are gonna be selling their

447
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 2: Eagle stock. Ooh oh, did not look good. Didn't look

448
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 2: good at all against Carolina. Ooh yeah, I don't know, Pittsburgh.

449
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh's a better team. I don't know. And I wonder

450
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 2: if there's now gonna be value on the ego is

451
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 2: going forward or is the opposite true? Give us some thought, guys,

452
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: think about this. You've got a complaining wide receiver and

453
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,360
Speaker 2: what's the best way to appease him, and that would

454
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,679
Speaker 2: be easy, feed him, get him the football. Well, you know,

455
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 2: not Joey Porter, Joey Porter's son, the young wide receiver

456
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 2: cornerback from Penn State. He is probably gonna be tasked

457
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 2: with chasing around AJ Brown. That is a horrendous, horrendous

458
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 2: matchup for the Eagles. And I'm gonna'll be honest with you, guys.

459
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 2: I I love I'm sorry Porter. No, Porter's terrible. I'm

460
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 2: looking at his numbers. That's a horrendous matchup for the Steelers.

461
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: AJ Brown should eat. But I guess the problem would

462
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 2: be the Steelers know this. Are they gonna be jumping

463
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 2: routes for a J. Brown knowing, hey, we gotta force

464
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 2: They're gonna try to force feed him to keep him happy.

465
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 2: Remember with Malik Neighbors where he didn't get to touch

466
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 2: the entire first half and they were losing I don't know,

467
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 2: thirty nothing or something, and then they first drive of

468
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 2: the second half, it's like Malik Neighbors, Milik Neighbors like

469
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: three or four catches in a row. And I wonder

470
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 2: if that's the strike we got to have. We gotta

471
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: keep AJ Brown happy, you know, And that's that's not great,

472
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: not for Super Bowl contender. You don't want that. I

473
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: believe the Chiefs had a little of that with Tyreek Hill,

474
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 2: not a ton and you know, pretty quickly Tyreek Hill

475
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 2: was shown his walkie papers. Hey man, we know you're good.

476
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 2: We're just we're not going to do that here. I

477
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 2: just I don't really know what to believe here. There

478
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 2: are some Eagles fans who are saying, bro, there's nothing here.

479
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: But I don't know. Brandon Graham coming out and say

480
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 2: this is a veteran who's been in the locker room

481
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 2: for a while. I don't know. It just doesn't seem

482
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: good for the Eagles. All right, that's it for today's podcast.

483
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 2: We are back Maniana. I'll be putting some college basketball picks,

484
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 2: hopefully on the IG stories up on Syracuse tonight minus twelve.

485
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 2: I know you don't care. They don't have Jim Bayhigh,

486
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 2: but I'm out there. I gotta have some action here

487
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 2: tonight on a on a slow Tuesday night in the

488
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: sports world. Talk to you tomorrow.
