He's 19 00:01:06,388 --> 00:01:08,948 Speaker 4: gonna be out for a while. Eagles have a time out. 20 00:01:09,228 --> 00:01:11,268 Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts is gonna throw deep. All you need is 21 00:01:11,268 --> 00:01:15,188 Speaker 4: a field goal to take Elliott and Jesse Bates the 22 00:01:15,348 --> 00:01:21,228 Speaker 4: third calls game a shocking win, a scut punch lost 23 00:01:21,228 --> 00:01:22,148 Speaker 4: to Philadelphia. 24 00:01:22,588 --> 00:01:23,908 Speaker 5: The drop on third and three for. 25 00:01:23,988 --> 00:01:31,828 Speaker 6: Saquon looms huge and Kirk MFC wins on Monday Night 26 00:01:31,868 --> 00:01:35,588 Speaker 6: Football in Philadelphia twenty to twenty one. 27 00:01:35,988 --> 00:01:37,228 Speaker 5: A great game. 28 00:01:37,948 --> 00:01:39,228 Speaker 6: Let's get after it first. 29 00:01:39,308 --> 00:01:42,428 Speaker 4: We got here from the winning quarterback, Kirk Cousins on 30 00:01:42,748 --> 00:01:45,268 Speaker 4: changing the tail of the season. 31 00:01:46,748 --> 00:01:49,428 Speaker 7: It's so important to find ways to win. And that's 32 00:01:49,468 --> 00:01:51,548 Speaker 7: how you put together a great season is you know, 33 00:01:51,588 --> 00:01:53,268 Speaker 7: when you have these games it could go either way. 34 00:01:53,308 --> 00:01:54,828 Speaker 7: You find a way to have it break your way. 35 00:01:56,548 --> 00:01:58,628 Speaker 7: And that's the way this league is. And so when 36 00:01:58,628 --> 00:02:00,988 Speaker 7: we can find those inches, it can really change the 37 00:02:01,028 --> 00:02:03,548 Speaker 7: tail of the season. So we're gonna have more of 38 00:02:03,548 --> 00:02:05,828 Speaker 7: those up ahead, and we're gonna have to keep uh, 39 00:02:06,468 --> 00:02:08,788 Speaker 7: you know as a whole team finding ways to up 40 00:02:08,828 --> 00:02:09,988 Speaker 7: to make the players was. 41 00:02:10,028 --> 00:02:12,668 Speaker 8: Just lost obviously this thing wrapped up. 42 00:02:12,868 --> 00:02:13,868 Speaker 5: Yeah, it definitely sucks. 43 00:02:14,428 --> 00:02:18,788 Speaker 9: Any loss sucks, but you know, the game come down 44 00:02:18,828 --> 00:02:21,628 Speaker 9: to a few plays and hurts. 45 00:02:21,388 --> 00:02:23,668 Speaker 2: A little more when you're the one who's there you. 46 00:02:24,468 --> 00:02:25,548 Speaker 5: Make a mistake when that plays. 47 00:02:25,668 --> 00:02:28,988 Speaker 1: I wonder best add two, a teammate like Saquan has 48 00:02:29,028 --> 00:02:31,188 Speaker 1: such a great game, and that just one class. 49 00:02:31,388 --> 00:02:35,948 Speaker 9: It's football, bro happens. It can't can't fall to a 50 00:02:35,948 --> 00:02:38,948 Speaker 9: guy for making one mistake. I mean, it's other things 51 00:02:38,988 --> 00:02:41,908 Speaker 9: that led to a loss, but you can't fault one 52 00:02:41,908 --> 00:02:44,708 Speaker 9: guy and put one game, one thing on somebody's shoulders 53 00:02:44,708 --> 00:02:45,348 Speaker 9: for the whole game. 54 00:02:46,388 --> 00:02:49,148 Speaker 3: It was reported that that Eagles locker room after the 55 00:02:49,148 --> 00:02:51,588 Speaker 3: game was one of the quietest people have been a 56 00:02:51,628 --> 00:02:54,628 Speaker 3: part of or observed. But Saquon Barkley stood up at 57 00:02:54,628 --> 00:02:56,628 Speaker 3: his locker and spoke to the loss and the way 58 00:02:56,628 --> 00:02:58,708 Speaker 3: that game ended. Saquon Barkley is going to join our 59 00:02:58,748 --> 00:03:00,748 Speaker 3: show in just a little bit this hour here on 60 00:03:00,788 --> 00:03:02,788 Speaker 3: Good Morning Football. You're gonna hear from the running back 61 00:03:02,828 --> 00:03:06,788 Speaker 3: for the Eagles. It was an end in Philadelphia, Kyle. 62 00:03:06,868 --> 00:03:09,108 Speaker 3: It was about a month ago that we saw the 63 00:03:09,188 --> 00:03:12,508 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins playlist come out around his birthday, and you 64 00:03:12,588 --> 00:03:15,508 Speaker 3: had all his new teammates saying happy birthday, Kirko, what's 65 00:03:15,548 --> 00:03:17,108 Speaker 3: up Kirk Coo, we love you and you and I 66 00:03:17,108 --> 00:03:19,508 Speaker 3: had this conversation like, how well do they really know 67 00:03:19,628 --> 00:03:21,708 Speaker 3: the guy? Well, it's been a month and it seems 68 00:03:21,748 --> 00:03:23,988 Speaker 3: like everyone's gotten on the same page after a drive 69 00:03:24,108 --> 00:03:24,308 Speaker 3: like that. 70 00:03:25,668 --> 00:03:27,028 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think at the end of the game 71 00:03:27,068 --> 00:03:28,948 Speaker 4: that we're saying I want to push you around, well 72 00:03:28,988 --> 00:03:31,628 Speaker 4: I will well I will matchbox twenty. That's what they 73 00:03:31,628 --> 00:03:33,148 Speaker 4: were doing at the end of the game. But let's 74 00:03:33,188 --> 00:03:34,308 Speaker 4: just calm down for a little bit. We have a 75 00:03:34,348 --> 00:03:36,628 Speaker 4: lot to unpack about the Eagles and what didn't happen. 76 00:03:37,068 --> 00:03:39,708 Speaker 4: But I just want to make sure everybody understands Kirk 77 00:03:39,748 --> 00:03:42,588 Speaker 4: Cousins at the end of the game was down six 78 00:03:42,988 --> 00:03:46,188 Speaker 4: with no timeouts, right, and he's in Philadelphia, and it's 79 00:03:46,188 --> 00:03:49,428 Speaker 4: celebrating Nick Foles, and it's celebrating Jason Kelce and the 80 00:03:49,548 --> 00:03:52,948 Speaker 4: e and ESPN stood for Eagles last nights and Cousins 81 00:03:52,948 --> 00:03:55,988 Speaker 4: always losing some primetime. He's terrible. You can't win Monday Nights. 82 00:03:56,108 --> 00:03:58,388 Speaker 4: You can't do anything. You're just waiting for him to collapse. 83 00:03:58,588 --> 00:04:00,868 Speaker 4: He was really bad week one. He was pretty bad 84 00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:03,468 Speaker 4: for three and a half quarters Last Nights, and then 85 00:04:03,628 --> 00:04:08,068 Speaker 4: something happen and it was an effortless, seamless, hot knife 86 00:04:08,068 --> 00:04:11,428 Speaker 4: through butter winning touchdown drive for Kirk Cousins. That thing's over, 87 00:04:11,988 --> 00:04:14,028 Speaker 4: that whole Monday night football thing. That's not just the 88 00:04:14,108 --> 00:04:17,788 Speaker 4: last Night thing. If you're still counting that storyline, you're lazy, 89 00:04:17,988 --> 00:04:21,028 Speaker 4: you're uninformed. He has won four of his last five 90 00:04:21,068 --> 00:04:24,308 Speaker 4: Monday Night football games. Guys, including last nights. Since becoming 91 00:04:24,308 --> 00:04:27,548 Speaker 4: a starter, kirk Cousins has six go ahead touchdown passes 92 00:04:27,548 --> 00:04:29,868 Speaker 4: at the end of regulation are overtime. That's second most 93 00:04:29,908 --> 00:04:32,948 Speaker 4: in the league. He gets it done, and he gets 94 00:04:32,948 --> 00:04:37,028 Speaker 4: it done in an apparently unbelievably hostile atmosphere. I know 95 00:04:37,108 --> 00:04:39,028 Speaker 4: it's really fun to make fun of him, do pop 96 00:04:39,068 --> 00:04:42,228 Speaker 4: references and station wagons and chain restaurants, and I've done 97 00:04:42,228 --> 00:04:44,548 Speaker 4: it myself and I love it. This was a big 98 00:04:44,628 --> 00:04:47,428 Speaker 4: time money drive in the biggest of spots. And by 99 00:04:47,468 --> 00:04:50,148 Speaker 4: the way, you go zero to two, you're probably screwed. 100 00:04:50,268 --> 00:04:53,388 Speaker 4: They drafted your Replacementh's standing on the sideline. Everybody's already 101 00:04:53,428 --> 00:04:56,548 Speaker 4: chirping about Michael Pennix Junior. They're not for one night, 102 00:04:56,988 --> 00:04:59,908 Speaker 4: maybe for longer. Kirk Cousins said I got this, I'm 103 00:04:59,908 --> 00:05:02,748 Speaker 4: gonna win this game, and he did. There's no jokes today, 104 00:05:02,868 --> 00:05:05,228 Speaker 4: no nothing, just good football on a win for the. 105 00:05:05,228 --> 00:05:07,708 Speaker 5: Atlanta Falcons, the Kirk Cousins Atlanta Falcons Peter. 106 00:05:07,948 --> 00:05:10,628 Speaker 2: For as good as the Falcons field and as good 107 00:05:10,668 --> 00:05:13,468 Speaker 2: as the Falcons fans probably feel this morning, I have 108 00:05:13,508 --> 00:05:16,548 Speaker 2: to think that the Eagles and the Eagles fans. 109 00:05:16,268 --> 00:05:17,548 Speaker 5: Are the complete opposite. 110 00:05:18,068 --> 00:05:21,708 Speaker 2: What a horrendous loss for the Philadelphia Eagles. It is 111 00:05:21,748 --> 00:05:23,788 Speaker 2: third and three, it is late. You're just marching down 112 00:05:23,788 --> 00:05:28,028 Speaker 2: the field. They cannot stop you. It's Saquon, It's hurt. 113 00:05:28,148 --> 00:05:29,308 Speaker 2: It's right down the field. 114 00:05:29,628 --> 00:05:30,188 Speaker 5: Third and three. 115 00:05:30,268 --> 00:05:32,188 Speaker 2: The other team has no timeouts with less than two 116 00:05:32,228 --> 00:05:35,468 Speaker 2: minutes to go, and it was like a feather to Saquon. 117 00:05:35,588 --> 00:05:37,708 Speaker 2: It was right there, and he drops it. Not only 118 00:05:37,708 --> 00:05:39,588 Speaker 2: does he drop it force a to be fourth and three, 119 00:05:39,948 --> 00:05:42,028 Speaker 2: he drops it and he stops the clock and gives 120 00:05:42,068 --> 00:05:44,908 Speaker 2: time for the opposing team to march right down the field. 121 00:05:45,268 --> 00:05:46,308 Speaker 5: You see this play here. 122 00:05:46,588 --> 00:05:48,628 Speaker 2: He could not be more open, the past could not 123 00:05:48,748 --> 00:05:52,148 Speaker 2: be right there, and it's just human error drops it. 124 00:05:52,188 --> 00:05:55,068 Speaker 2: But then you start thinking, how many analytics guys are 125 00:05:55,068 --> 00:05:57,588 Speaker 2: in the box, how many different people are telling Siriani 126 00:05:57,908 --> 00:05:58,988 Speaker 2: and Kellen Moore. 127 00:05:59,388 --> 00:06:01,188 Speaker 5: Just run the ball, Just run the ball. 128 00:06:01,268 --> 00:06:03,148 Speaker 2: You kill the clock. They have no time left. We 129 00:06:03,188 --> 00:06:05,308 Speaker 2: can kill this thing and then we take the field 130 00:06:05,348 --> 00:06:07,508 Speaker 2: goal if we don't get it. An incomplete pass was 131 00:06:07,548 --> 00:06:10,228 Speaker 2: the last thing they could have afforded right there. And 132 00:06:10,268 --> 00:06:14,748 Speaker 2: it leads me to some situational football conversations around the 133 00:06:14,748 --> 00:06:17,428 Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles. Everyone knows they lost a bunch of games 134 00:06:17,508 --> 00:06:19,948 Speaker 2: at the end of last season. Do you remember how 135 00:06:19,988 --> 00:06:22,868 Speaker 2: they lost these games? We had last night's win. Obviously, 136 00:06:22,908 --> 00:06:25,108 Speaker 2: this is the final minute of the game, and you 137 00:06:25,228 --> 00:06:27,588 Speaker 2: had this and Cousins till Drake London and that's the memory. 138 00:06:27,668 --> 00:06:28,668 Speaker 5: Oh okay, it's week two. 139 00:06:28,668 --> 00:06:31,588 Speaker 2: We could put guys, Is this a hangover problem? 140 00:06:31,828 --> 00:06:32,468 Speaker 8: Last year? 141 00:06:33,788 --> 00:06:37,428 Speaker 5: Week seventeen? There against the Arizona Cardinals. He throws this back. 142 00:06:37,428 --> 00:06:40,428 Speaker 5: They were winning when this happened. Cardinals come right down 143 00:06:40,428 --> 00:06:40,828 Speaker 5: the field. 144 00:06:41,028 --> 00:06:43,508 Speaker 2: James Connor knocks us in in the final drive after 145 00:06:43,628 --> 00:06:45,428 Speaker 2: hurts through that interception with less than a minute. 146 00:06:45,428 --> 00:06:48,708 Speaker 5: We lead this game. They're winning again, thirty one to 147 00:06:48,708 --> 00:06:49,228 Speaker 5: twenty eight. 148 00:06:49,308 --> 00:06:53,708 Speaker 2: With the twenty eight seconds left against the Seahawks. Seahawks 149 00:06:53,748 --> 00:06:56,268 Speaker 2: get the ball back, and if you remember Seahawks beat 150 00:06:56,308 --> 00:06:58,828 Speaker 2: them on Monday Night Football, then it was against the 151 00:06:58,948 --> 00:07:01,388 Speaker 2: Jets earlier in the season. They had a lead with 152 00:07:01,508 --> 00:07:03,548 Speaker 2: less than a minute left to go and they gave 153 00:07:03,588 --> 00:07:05,748 Speaker 2: it away and the Jets came back and beat them. 154 00:07:06,228 --> 00:07:09,748 Speaker 2: At some point you start wondering, is it a Hurts thing, 155 00:07:09,908 --> 00:07:10,908 Speaker 2: Is it a Syriani thing? 156 00:07:10,988 --> 00:07:11,868 Speaker 5: Is it an Eagles thing? 157 00:07:11,868 --> 00:07:14,788 Speaker 2: Because they love to bark on that sideline and we 158 00:07:14,908 --> 00:07:16,428 Speaker 2: love them for it, and they love to. 159 00:07:16,388 --> 00:07:18,668 Speaker 5: Do that that touch, push and knock you down and 160 00:07:18,708 --> 00:07:19,508 Speaker 5: bully you do it. 161 00:07:19,748 --> 00:07:22,268 Speaker 2: And we know that Nick has a tendency of maybe 162 00:07:22,348 --> 00:07:23,468 Speaker 2: mugging for the cameras a bit. 163 00:07:23,548 --> 00:07:24,988 Speaker 5: We know that they love that in Philly. 164 00:07:25,588 --> 00:07:27,148 Speaker 2: But when you are also known as a team that 165 00:07:27,188 --> 00:07:30,188 Speaker 2: can't close the door and can't finish the job and 166 00:07:30,268 --> 00:07:33,588 Speaker 2: loses at home time and time again after being up 167 00:07:33,868 --> 00:07:36,668 Speaker 2: with less than a minute left, that's a question for 168 00:07:36,748 --> 00:07:37,788 Speaker 2: the rest of the league to answer. 169 00:07:37,828 --> 00:07:40,348 Speaker 5: Say, are they the tough guys? Are they the bullies? 170 00:07:40,428 --> 00:07:43,028 Speaker 2: Are we so scared about that Jeff Stoutlin offensive line 171 00:07:43,468 --> 00:07:45,188 Speaker 2: they end up throwing the ball on third and three 172 00:07:45,228 --> 00:07:48,108 Speaker 2: as opposed to just lying on that run game. I 173 00:07:48,428 --> 00:07:50,668 Speaker 2: hope they can recover and I hope they like that's 174 00:07:50,748 --> 00:07:52,468 Speaker 2: last year's stuff. It was supposed to be fixed over 175 00:07:52,508 --> 00:07:54,508 Speaker 2: the all season. That was a last year's mistakes that 176 00:07:54,548 --> 00:07:55,308 Speaker 2: we saw last night. 177 00:07:55,388 --> 00:07:55,988 Speaker 5: I have a question. 178 00:07:55,988 --> 00:07:57,028 Speaker 8: It's interesting for all of us. 179 00:07:57,068 --> 00:07:58,948 Speaker 4: Peter just detailed the end and the third and three 180 00:07:58,948 --> 00:08:00,268 Speaker 4: and the Saquon drop and all that. 181 00:08:00,868 --> 00:08:02,348 Speaker 5: Saque is scheduled. 182 00:08:01,988 --> 00:08:04,348 Speaker 1: To join us on the show this morning shortly. 183 00:08:05,548 --> 00:08:06,508 Speaker 5: Is it really gonna happen. 184 00:08:06,588 --> 00:08:08,628 Speaker 4: I just want to ask this aloud, Like he was 185 00:08:08,668 --> 00:08:10,148 Speaker 4: booked on the show before the game. 186 00:08:10,268 --> 00:08:12,188 Speaker 5: He's here as part of an endorsement he's doing. 187 00:08:12,588 --> 00:08:14,388 Speaker 4: He probably didn't get to bed till probably one in 188 00:08:14,428 --> 00:08:16,868 Speaker 4: the morning last night. It is now eight eleven Eastern time. 189 00:08:16,988 --> 00:08:18,668 Speaker 4: Is he really going to come on shortly and talk 190 00:08:18,708 --> 00:08:21,148 Speaker 4: about that game? Because there's ways to get out of that. 191 00:08:21,188 --> 00:08:22,868 Speaker 4: It was a tough night. There was a tough play 192 00:08:22,908 --> 00:08:25,708 Speaker 4: at the end. There's ways to say, well, we'll reschedule. 193 00:08:25,788 --> 00:08:28,988 Speaker 4: I'm actually fascinated in real time to see if Saquon 194 00:08:29,068 --> 00:08:31,148 Speaker 4: is going to come on and face the music in 195 00:08:31,228 --> 00:08:34,468 Speaker 4: tough questions before we talk about you worked on Jim 196 00:08:34,508 --> 00:08:35,428 Speaker 4: Rome Show for many years. 197 00:08:35,468 --> 00:08:37,148 Speaker 5: It would be guests booked like all the time. Does 198 00:08:37,148 --> 00:08:37,988 Speaker 5: this happen that it's bail? 199 00:08:38,068 --> 00:08:40,508 Speaker 4: Yeah, they usually bail, okay, And honestly, the person they're 200 00:08:40,508 --> 00:08:42,948 Speaker 4: working with or the company that's endorsment with, they get 201 00:08:42,988 --> 00:08:44,588 Speaker 4: involved and they say, you know, we can do it 202 00:08:44,628 --> 00:08:45,188 Speaker 4: another time. 203 00:08:45,308 --> 00:08:47,428 Speaker 8: Maybe. I just think it's interesting. Is he going to 204 00:08:47,468 --> 00:08:47,788 Speaker 8: show up? 205 00:08:47,828 --> 00:08:48,788 Speaker 5: I don't judge him whatsoever. 206 00:08:48,868 --> 00:08:49,508 Speaker 8: You can show up. 207 00:08:49,548 --> 00:08:51,148 Speaker 5: I totally he played great last night. 208 00:08:51,508 --> 00:08:53,508 Speaker 4: I just right now in real time as you're watching 209 00:08:53,508 --> 00:08:55,748 Speaker 4: with us, as the clock is ticking, Acbar and Jamie, 210 00:08:55,828 --> 00:08:57,548 Speaker 4: I say, don't know if Saquon's going to show up 211 00:08:57,628 --> 00:08:57,788 Speaker 4: or not. 212 00:08:57,988 --> 00:09:00,148 Speaker 3: I say, yes, I had an inner battle with myself. 213 00:09:00,148 --> 00:09:02,108 Speaker 3: I don't even acknowledge the fact that he was going 214 00:09:02,148 --> 00:09:03,708 Speaker 3: to come on the show, Like do I do it 215 00:09:03,748 --> 00:09:06,068 Speaker 3: and set the tea for the hour of Good Morning Football? 216 00:09:06,148 --> 00:09:07,268 Speaker 3: Or do I not say it and have it be 217 00:09:07,308 --> 00:09:09,388 Speaker 3: this weird surprise? But then nobody knows he was supposed 218 00:09:09,388 --> 00:09:11,508 Speaker 3: to be there, so I didn't know whether or not 219 00:09:11,508 --> 00:09:13,388 Speaker 3: to commit to a Kyle. Now we have now we're 220 00:09:13,388 --> 00:09:15,708 Speaker 3: openly doubting it at a time, which is just it's 221 00:09:15,788 --> 00:09:17,508 Speaker 3: really more just the point of you know, we don't 222 00:09:17,548 --> 00:09:20,268 Speaker 3: know curiosity. Now this is a narrative off what happened 223 00:09:20,348 --> 00:09:22,508 Speaker 3: last night. You have what Peter is talking about with 224 00:09:22,588 --> 00:09:25,148 Speaker 3: the Eagles and late game antics that go back to 225 00:09:25,228 --> 00:09:27,788 Speaker 3: last season. But then you have Kirk Cousins, who people 226 00:09:27,828 --> 00:09:30,468 Speaker 3: all the time like he can't finish games in prime time, 227 00:09:30,548 --> 00:09:32,988 Speaker 3: especially well, Kirk Cousins definitely handled himself. 228 00:09:33,068 --> 00:09:33,828 Speaker 8: Yes he did. 229 00:09:33,948 --> 00:09:36,108 Speaker 10: And you know, I think it's about time we give 230 00:09:36,188 --> 00:09:39,068 Speaker 10: Kirk Cousins his credit. Like I mean, Kirk Cousins got 231 00:09:39,068 --> 00:09:41,788 Speaker 10: paid all that money. They brought him in for a reason. 232 00:09:41,828 --> 00:09:43,948 Speaker 10: The dude can play. And I think when you think 233 00:09:43,988 --> 00:09:46,988 Speaker 10: about when coaches bring a quarterback in or for whoever 234 00:09:47,028 --> 00:09:49,548 Speaker 10: the quarterback is the first thing you know is that 235 00:09:49,548 --> 00:09:51,708 Speaker 10: they want to know that you can handle certain situations. 236 00:09:51,988 --> 00:09:55,148 Speaker 10: And one of the situations that's constantly being practiced in 237 00:09:55,268 --> 00:09:58,148 Speaker 10: practice is the two minute drill. And boy did he 238 00:09:58,388 --> 00:10:00,548 Speaker 10: execute an amazing two minute drill. 239 00:10:00,588 --> 00:10:01,308 Speaker 8: Here you can see he. 240 00:10:01,308 --> 00:10:04,388 Speaker 10: Starts it off that first throw to Kyle Pitts. That's 241 00:10:04,388 --> 00:10:06,028 Speaker 10: imant because that sets the temple. 242 00:10:06,188 --> 00:10:06,828 Speaker 8: And then on this. 243 00:10:06,788 --> 00:10:09,588 Speaker 10: Bench route right here he finds Darnell Mooney. That is 244 00:10:09,868 --> 00:10:13,028 Speaker 10: huge because he's keeping that momentum going. And then down 245 00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:16,588 Speaker 10: he sees klod coverage here and he attacks one more time. 246 00:10:16,628 --> 00:10:20,348 Speaker 10: He finds Darnell Mooney. This is huge this play right here, 247 00:10:20,588 --> 00:10:24,308 Speaker 10: he goes out, gets another out route, has control of 248 00:10:24,348 --> 00:10:26,388 Speaker 10: the clock, and then all of a sudden, on this 249 00:10:26,548 --> 00:10:29,028 Speaker 10: last one he finds Drake London in the end zone. 250 00:10:29,068 --> 00:10:31,428 Speaker 10: To me, like, you don't get any better than that. 251 00:10:31,548 --> 00:10:33,748 Speaker 10: I know people were chirping and bringing the noise in 252 00:10:33,788 --> 00:10:36,708 Speaker 10: about Pinnis. I'm not sure that Pennocks at this point 253 00:10:36,748 --> 00:10:39,228 Speaker 10: in his career would have been able to handle that situation. 254 00:10:39,388 --> 00:10:42,828 Speaker 10: It's very easy, especially with no timeouts, Like you get 255 00:10:42,868 --> 00:10:45,388 Speaker 10: a minute thirty nine, you hand your ball off to 256 00:10:45,628 --> 00:10:47,868 Speaker 10: the quarterback who you know can go down there and 257 00:10:47,948 --> 00:10:49,628 Speaker 10: lead that drive, and he did an amazing job. 258 00:10:49,668 --> 00:10:51,668 Speaker 3: There are certain conversations we've had on this show that 259 00:10:51,788 --> 00:10:54,428 Speaker 3: rattle around in my head often, and one of the 260 00:10:55,028 --> 00:10:56,988 Speaker 3: Kyle brought it up last year, which is, in a 261 00:10:57,068 --> 00:11:00,148 Speaker 3: situation exactly like that, Kyle, would you rather have Dak 262 00:11:00,188 --> 00:11:03,668 Speaker 3: Prescott or Kirk Cousins with under two minutes to play, 263 00:11:03,748 --> 00:11:06,068 Speaker 3: no timeout? Kirk Cousins went out and said, give me 264 00:11:06,148 --> 00:11:07,468 Speaker 3: the ball. I would be the one to take care 265 00:11:07,468 --> 00:11:07,708 Speaker 3: of it. 266 00:11:09,548 --> 00:11:12,268 Speaker 4: He did, And listen, Kirk has not looked like Kirk. 267 00:11:12,948 --> 00:11:15,148 Speaker 4: We cannot go over this whole thing last night. He 268 00:11:15,188 --> 00:11:18,148 Speaker 4: did not look really comfortable. He looked pretty stiff until 269 00:11:18,188 --> 00:11:20,948 Speaker 4: it really really mattered. I mean, I'm not joking. He's 270 00:11:20,988 --> 00:11:24,028 Speaker 4: played seven and a half quarters of very stiff, uncomfortable 271 00:11:24,028 --> 00:11:26,708 Speaker 4: football for the Falcons. But in that moment, I can't 272 00:11:26,708 --> 00:11:27,788 Speaker 4: script a better moments. 273 00:11:27,988 --> 00:11:28,748 Speaker 8: That whole thing. 274 00:11:28,948 --> 00:11:31,348 Speaker 4: If you're watching the game was supposed to be a 275 00:11:31,428 --> 00:11:34,588 Speaker 4: celebration of the Eagles, and I'm talking about in the stadium, 276 00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:37,548 Speaker 4: on the network everything, and it was like Kirk Cousins 277 00:11:37,588 --> 00:11:39,988 Speaker 4: completely ruined the party. And he's been on the other 278 00:11:40,068 --> 00:11:42,948 Speaker 4: side of that so many times. That was a massive win. 279 00:11:42,988 --> 00:11:45,228 Speaker 4: If you know what Atlanta's got coming. They're already going 280 00:11:45,308 --> 00:11:47,508 Speaker 4: right back in primetime next week against the Chiefs, So 281 00:11:47,508 --> 00:11:49,508 Speaker 4: we're gonna do the Kirk Cousins in primetime thing again 282 00:11:49,908 --> 00:11:52,988 Speaker 4: just for this night, though. A fantastic, fantastic drive and 283 00:11:53,028 --> 00:11:53,508 Speaker 4: they got the win. 284 00:11:53,668 --> 00:11:56,908 Speaker 2: And I'd say it wasn't like Drake London Kyle Pitts 285 00:11:56,948 --> 00:11:57,268 Speaker 2: all night. 286 00:11:57,508 --> 00:11:57,748 Speaker 8: Wasn't. 287 00:11:57,788 --> 00:11:59,668 Speaker 5: It wasn't even at the end they weren't even going 288 00:11:59,708 --> 00:12:03,468 Speaker 5: to beach. It was Ray, Ray McLeod and Darnell Mooney 289 00:12:03,708 --> 00:12:06,228 Speaker 5: and it was it was Tyler Aljier at many points 290 00:12:06,268 --> 00:12:09,788 Speaker 5: like that was a really really bad loss for the 291 00:12:09,788 --> 00:12:11,748 Speaker 5: Eagles and a really good win for that. 292 00:12:11,868 --> 00:12:14,548 Speaker 10: Big time players make big time plays, doing big time moments. 293 00:12:14,548 --> 00:12:16,028 Speaker 10: Stets Kirk Cousins. 294 00:12:17,948 --> 00:12:22,548 Speaker 3: Time for Wake Up Call presented by Verizon eighteen starts 295 00:12:22,588 --> 00:12:26,188 Speaker 3: into his NFL career, and last year's number one overall pick, 296 00:12:26,228 --> 00:12:29,108 Speaker 3: Bryce Young is getting benched in favor of Andy Dalton. 297 00:12:29,108 --> 00:12:32,148 Speaker 3: The decision came out yesterday just after our show finished 298 00:12:32,148 --> 00:12:35,308 Speaker 3: on a Monday, made by Panthers head coach Dave Kanalis, 299 00:12:35,468 --> 00:12:37,948 Speaker 3: and he has said now that Andy Dalton gives them, 300 00:12:38,268 --> 00:12:41,948 Speaker 3: the Panthers their best chance to win this week against 301 00:12:41,948 --> 00:12:45,988 Speaker 3: the Raiders and essentially moving forward. It has been really 302 00:12:46,068 --> 00:12:48,708 Speaker 3: challenging to watch Bryce Young try to operate as a 303 00:12:48,788 --> 00:12:51,908 Speaker 3: quarterback operate this offense. Defenses have been getting after him, 304 00:12:51,948 --> 00:12:54,588 Speaker 3: chasing him all around the yard. Bryce Young only has 305 00:12:54,628 --> 00:12:58,468 Speaker 3: won two games in his short career. But Peter some 306 00:12:58,668 --> 00:13:01,868 Speaker 3: said this move was right on time. There's too late, 307 00:13:01,948 --> 00:13:04,388 Speaker 3: a little premature, Peter, where do you land on this skill? 308 00:13:05,788 --> 00:13:06,508 Speaker 5: It's historic. 309 00:13:06,868 --> 00:13:10,348 Speaker 2: I asked our NFL research guys and gals to do 310 00:13:10,428 --> 00:13:12,148 Speaker 2: some digging, and it took a while for the answer. 311 00:13:12,228 --> 00:13:12,788 Speaker 5: I said, has there. 312 00:13:12,748 --> 00:13:17,428 Speaker 2: Ever been a first overall pick who started Week one 313 00:13:17,468 --> 00:13:20,228 Speaker 2: in his second season and was benched after Week two? 314 00:13:20,228 --> 00:13:23,148 Speaker 5: And the answer is no, Like it's never happened before. 315 00:13:24,308 --> 00:13:25,708 Speaker 5: Here's my interpretation of it. 316 00:13:25,748 --> 00:13:28,748 Speaker 2: Talking to folks in Carolina two games in, this was 317 00:13:28,788 --> 00:13:30,828 Speaker 2: obviously not the plan, but it was also not the 318 00:13:30,868 --> 00:13:33,708 Speaker 2: plan to be completely non competitive in two games and 319 00:13:33,748 --> 00:13:37,268 Speaker 2: to be blown out like this. This is entirely from 320 00:13:37,308 --> 00:13:40,508 Speaker 2: what I'm told Dave Canalis's decision. This isn't from the owner, 321 00:13:40,548 --> 00:13:42,588 Speaker 2: This isn't from the GM. This is from the owner. 322 00:13:42,668 --> 00:13:44,388 Speaker 2: This is from the coach saying we should be better 323 00:13:44,428 --> 00:13:46,228 Speaker 2: than this. We have better players on the field and 324 00:13:46,308 --> 00:13:49,308 Speaker 2: this is just not working for anyone's sake. And lastly, 325 00:13:49,508 --> 00:13:51,828 Speaker 2: like you go for this thing with Bright Young, maybe 326 00:13:51,828 --> 00:13:53,348 Speaker 2: it's the best for him to take a step back 327 00:13:53,468 --> 00:13:55,308 Speaker 2: and just watch for a bit, because you could be 328 00:13:55,308 --> 00:13:58,508 Speaker 2: absolutely shattered. We've had enough quarterbacks in the history of 329 00:13:58,548 --> 00:14:01,388 Speaker 2: the NFL who lose like this, who just can't dig 330 00:14:01,428 --> 00:14:01,788 Speaker 2: out of it. 331 00:14:02,108 --> 00:14:03,468 Speaker 5: Look, there is a bright side on this. 332 00:14:03,548 --> 00:14:06,428 Speaker 2: There are some you know ho tales of Alex Smith 333 00:14:06,468 --> 00:14:08,948 Speaker 2: was in a winning quarterback for six years and was 334 00:14:09,068 --> 00:14:12,548 Speaker 2: rotating around with different offensiveders that finally found himself. Matthew 335 00:14:12,588 --> 00:14:16,028 Speaker 2: Stafford couldn't win for years, finally found away and started 336 00:14:16,028 --> 00:14:18,868 Speaker 2: winning as a first overall pick. It's not fair to 337 00:14:18,948 --> 00:14:20,868 Speaker 2: the fans, it's not fair to the other players, and 338 00:14:20,908 --> 00:14:22,908 Speaker 2: it's not fair to Bryce Young to keep trotting it 339 00:14:22,908 --> 00:14:23,628 Speaker 2: out like it's been. 340 00:14:24,348 --> 00:14:25,748 Speaker 5: This is not the plan, obviously. 341 00:14:25,868 --> 00:14:29,268 Speaker 2: It's a horrific situation In Caroline after two games, they're 342 00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:31,268 Speaker 2: hoping to remedy it and Andy Dalton could offer a 343 00:14:31,308 --> 00:14:33,828 Speaker 2: steady hand and at least play some competitive football as 344 00:14:33,868 --> 00:14:35,708 Speaker 2: Bryce Young gets better watching. 345 00:14:35,548 --> 00:14:40,508 Speaker 10: From afar, you know, it's interesting because, you know, I 346 00:14:40,548 --> 00:14:42,708 Speaker 10: feel a different type of way about this. I feel 347 00:14:42,748 --> 00:14:45,148 Speaker 10: like this has been unfair to the young player and 348 00:14:45,228 --> 00:14:47,668 Speaker 10: Bryce Young. He had to go through Frank Reich and 349 00:14:47,708 --> 00:14:50,028 Speaker 10: then they have an interim head coach. Then he gets 350 00:14:50,068 --> 00:14:53,428 Speaker 10: a new head coach in Canalis, And to me, it's like, 351 00:14:53,468 --> 00:14:55,388 Speaker 10: at what point do you start saying, hey, maybe this 352 00:14:55,428 --> 00:14:58,588 Speaker 10: is an organizational thing where they continue to mess up 353 00:14:58,908 --> 00:15:02,988 Speaker 10: on developing quarterbacks. Look at Sam Darnold, look at Baker Mayfield. 354 00:15:03,028 --> 00:15:06,988 Speaker 10: These guys since they've left the Carolina Panthers forty six touchdowns, 355 00:15:06,988 --> 00:15:10,068 Speaker 10: fourteen interception between the two, they're both starting off two 356 00:15:10,108 --> 00:15:12,428 Speaker 10: to zero right now. In fact, they're playing some really 357 00:15:12,428 --> 00:15:15,388 Speaker 10: good football. It's very easy to go, oh, yeah, we're 358 00:15:15,388 --> 00:15:16,708 Speaker 10: just going to bench. And I get it, that's not 359 00:15:16,748 --> 00:15:18,988 Speaker 10: Canal's guy. You didn't draft him in twenty twenty three. 360 00:15:19,068 --> 00:15:21,788 Speaker 10: That's cool, But I'd say, like if Canal's is supposed 361 00:15:21,828 --> 00:15:24,708 Speaker 10: to be the quarterback whisperer, like you know, he resurrected 362 00:15:24,708 --> 00:15:28,748 Speaker 10: Genal Smith's career. He resurrected, so to speak, Baker mayfield career. 363 00:15:28,948 --> 00:15:30,268 Speaker 8: Why not be able to do the same thing. 364 00:15:30,308 --> 00:15:32,988 Speaker 10: And maybe it's taking him off the shelf to resurrect 365 00:15:33,308 --> 00:15:35,348 Speaker 10: him and just kind of get him up to speed. 366 00:15:35,708 --> 00:15:38,508 Speaker 10: But I hope for sure that this is not something 367 00:15:38,508 --> 00:15:40,228 Speaker 10: that they just kind of throw him way to the side. 368 00:15:40,388 --> 00:15:43,388 Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, everybody, as you're going through your day today 369 00:15:43,428 --> 00:15:44,628 Speaker 4: and scanning your phone. 370 00:15:44,468 --> 00:15:46,148 Speaker 5: Or whatever, do yourself a favorite. 371 00:15:46,188 --> 00:15:49,268 Speaker 4: Take thirty seconds and pull up some Bryce Young college highlights. 372 00:15:49,388 --> 00:15:51,668 Speaker 4: Just watch it a little bit and watch how brilliant 373 00:15:51,708 --> 00:15:53,428 Speaker 4: he is, Watch how good of a player he is. 374 00:15:53,668 --> 00:15:54,228 Speaker 8: Watch him just. 375 00:15:54,308 --> 00:15:55,188 Speaker 5: Jump off the screen. 376 00:15:55,508 --> 00:15:58,468 Speaker 4: I don't really think this era of Carolina Panthers football 377 00:15:58,468 --> 00:15:59,508 Speaker 4: has the credibility here. 378 00:15:59,548 --> 00:16:00,148 Speaker 8: They just don't. 379 00:16:00,268 --> 00:16:02,068 Speaker 4: And I'm rooting for them, and I understand it's in 380 00:16:02,108 --> 00:16:04,668 Speaker 4: a weird perverse way while they're doing this, but like, 381 00:16:04,708 --> 00:16:07,828 Speaker 4: this is a disaster of your making. It's not just 382 00:16:07,868 --> 00:16:09,868 Speaker 4: to mention all those the success of the quarterbacks that 383 00:16:09,868 --> 00:16:11,788 Speaker 4: have had since they've left you. This is a team 384 00:16:11,788 --> 00:16:13,788 Speaker 4: that was sitting on Christian McCaffrey. This is a team 385 00:16:13,788 --> 00:16:15,788 Speaker 4: that had DJ Moore and they made a bunch of 386 00:16:15,828 --> 00:16:18,748 Speaker 4: different moves, and they've all fallen completely flat on their face. 387 00:16:18,988 --> 00:16:21,268 Speaker 4: They take this guy who started eighteen games with three 388 00:16:21,348 --> 00:16:24,428 Speaker 4: different offenses, zero help, and the idea was to throw 389 00:16:24,508 --> 00:16:26,268 Speaker 4: him at him Thielen, who I like, come on, like, 390 00:16:26,308 --> 00:16:28,788 Speaker 4: this was really the situation that was gonna work. And 391 00:16:28,828 --> 00:16:31,068 Speaker 4: I hate that take about you know this might be 392 00:16:31,108 --> 00:16:32,308 Speaker 4: good for him, that's BS. 393 00:16:32,508 --> 00:16:33,108 Speaker 8: I think it's. 394 00:16:32,988 --> 00:16:34,788 Speaker 4: Humiliating for Bryce Young. I think he's got to be 395 00:16:34,868 --> 00:16:37,708 Speaker 4: embarrassed and angry. I don't think that usually ends well. 396 00:16:37,708 --> 00:16:41,468 Speaker 4: I think their will gets broken. Terrible, terrible era and 397 00:16:41,508 --> 00:16:44,068 Speaker 4: I think a terrible, terrible recipe, And just look at 398 00:16:44,188 --> 00:16:46,908 Speaker 4: what happens to the guys who leave Carolina. Dave Canalis 399 00:16:46,948 --> 00:16:49,388 Speaker 4: has got the job to fix Bryce Young. There's a 400 00:16:49,388 --> 00:16:51,548 Speaker 4: lot of guys they could have hired. He was chosen 401 00:16:51,588 --> 00:16:53,748 Speaker 4: to fix him. After two weeks, he can so he 402 00:16:53,788 --> 00:16:56,548 Speaker 4: benches him. I feel defensive about Bryce Young, and just 403 00:16:56,628 --> 00:16:58,388 Speaker 4: watch how good of a player he is, and then 404 00:16:58,428 --> 00:17:00,268 Speaker 4: watch what happened last week. I don't think it has 405 00:17:00,348 --> 00:17:02,268 Speaker 4: everything to do with him. I think actually has most 406 00:17:02,308 --> 00:17:03,388 Speaker 4: to do with his surroundings. 407 00:17:03,428 --> 00:17:05,788 Speaker 10: Yeah, most to do with him surroundings. I totally agree 408 00:17:05,788 --> 00:17:08,668 Speaker 10: in developing him. Now, look, I will say it hasn't 409 00:17:08,708 --> 00:17:11,228 Speaker 10: been good football for Bryce Young. Take a look at 410 00:17:11,228 --> 00:17:13,228 Speaker 10: this film here that I was able to cut up here. 411 00:17:13,268 --> 00:17:17,188 Speaker 10: This is against the Los Angeles Chargers. In this situation, 412 00:17:17,348 --> 00:17:20,748 Speaker 10: he's getting pressure, but because his feet his foot is drifting. 413 00:17:20,948 --> 00:17:23,188 Speaker 10: He's kind of drifting in that situation, he kind of 414 00:17:23,188 --> 00:17:26,108 Speaker 10: loses his face. You know, obviously they lose on that situation. 415 00:17:26,148 --> 00:17:28,468 Speaker 10: In this situation, here's third and seven, he has his 416 00:17:28,788 --> 00:17:31,388 Speaker 10: eyes in the wrong spot. He's down looking at there's 417 00:17:31,388 --> 00:17:33,508 Speaker 10: a better man to man coverage or excuse me, men 418 00:17:33,588 --> 00:17:35,948 Speaker 10: of man where he can answer to the boundary. 419 00:17:36,148 --> 00:17:38,588 Speaker 8: But he doesn't. So he's getting nervous. 420 00:17:38,588 --> 00:17:41,308 Speaker 10: His eyes are wondering, and that's a bad situation for 421 00:17:41,388 --> 00:17:43,668 Speaker 10: any quarterback to be. But you bring in like you 422 00:17:43,708 --> 00:17:46,908 Speaker 10: were talking about. He brings in Dave Canalis. They have him. 423 00:17:46,948 --> 00:17:48,628 Speaker 10: He's supposed to be the guy to get him right. 424 00:17:48,988 --> 00:17:50,988 Speaker 10: And I've seen this and I'm gonna go back and Peter, 425 00:17:51,108 --> 00:17:54,308 Speaker 10: you might appreciate this. I think certain coaches do well 426 00:17:54,348 --> 00:17:56,628 Speaker 10: with certain players. I think that's an obvious statement. I 427 00:17:56,708 --> 00:18:00,188 Speaker 10: go back to Aaron Cantman. Aaron Kntman was crushing it. 428 00:18:00,548 --> 00:18:03,148 Speaker 10: Crushing it in Green Bay. He moves over to Don 429 00:18:03,268 --> 00:18:06,148 Speaker 10: Caper's defense for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and we just saw 430 00:18:06,188 --> 00:18:09,308 Speaker 10: his numbers plummet. So many people want to blame the players. 431 00:18:09,308 --> 00:18:11,148 Speaker 10: All the players not good. Sometimes you get in the 432 00:18:11,508 --> 00:18:14,508 Speaker 10: system where a coach just doesn't know how to coach you, 433 00:18:14,708 --> 00:18:17,668 Speaker 10: and the player loses his confidence and he loses quote 434 00:18:17,708 --> 00:18:21,028 Speaker 10: unquote his skill set. So I'm there supporting Bryce Young. 435 00:18:21,068 --> 00:18:22,548 Speaker 10: I think he still has a lot of football left 436 00:18:22,548 --> 00:18:22,948 Speaker 10: in him. 437 00:18:23,188 --> 00:18:26,028 Speaker 2: Look, the interesting thing with Bryce was when he first 438 00:18:26,108 --> 00:18:28,348 Speaker 2: got there, they said, we're gonna surround him with all 439 00:18:28,348 --> 00:18:31,668 Speaker 2: these quarterback gurus in minds. Josh McCown's going to be 440 00:18:31,668 --> 00:18:33,948 Speaker 2: his quarterbacks coach, Frank Reich is going to be there. 441 00:18:34,028 --> 00:18:35,908 Speaker 2: We're gonna have Andy Dalton as a veteran. We're going 442 00:18:35,988 --> 00:18:37,868 Speaker 2: to have Staley in the room. We're gonna have all 443 00:18:37,868 --> 00:18:41,108 Speaker 2: these different offensive quotes. And last year the narrative was 444 00:18:41,348 --> 00:18:44,228 Speaker 2: there was too many voices, you know, too many different opinions. 445 00:18:44,228 --> 00:18:46,188 Speaker 5: There was too much on Bryce all right. 446 00:18:46,228 --> 00:18:48,268 Speaker 2: Well, then this year in the draft, they get a 447 00:18:48,308 --> 00:18:50,428 Speaker 2: big they get a big wide receiver, and look get 448 00:18:50,468 --> 00:18:52,228 Speaker 2: they get the running back in Brooks. They also in 449 00:18:52,228 --> 00:18:54,428 Speaker 2: free agency, get all these offensive linemen, and it's like 450 00:18:54,428 --> 00:18:57,588 Speaker 2: we got Canal. It's the quarterback. They're losing my fifty 451 00:18:57,708 --> 00:19:00,188 Speaker 2: the first two weeks. So I'm not defending the decision. 452 00:19:00,348 --> 00:19:02,788 Speaker 2: I think if I don't know what to make of it, 453 00:19:02,788 --> 00:19:04,828 Speaker 2: it's horrible. Obviously it's not idea. 454 00:19:04,948 --> 00:19:07,188 Speaker 5: But I also think they can't lose my fifty again. 455 00:19:07,228 --> 00:19:09,228 Speaker 5: They're lose my fifty points like this is like these 456 00:19:09,228 --> 00:19:10,188 Speaker 5: are horrible games. 457 00:19:10,548 --> 00:19:12,668 Speaker 2: So you know, this is their way of saying we 458 00:19:12,708 --> 00:19:14,468 Speaker 2: get it, like we're waere, like we know this isn't 459 00:19:14,428 --> 00:19:16,228 Speaker 2: going to work, so let's try to check it up. 460 00:19:16,268 --> 00:19:18,348 Speaker 2: But gosh, they're not giving up on Bryce Young yet. 461 00:19:18,388 --> 00:19:20,548 Speaker 2: I don't think and if so, like I don't. I 462 00:19:20,548 --> 00:19:22,548 Speaker 2: don't know what's the trade market for Bryce Young right now. 463 00:19:22,548 --> 00:19:24,788 Speaker 2: I don't can't imagine a single team wants Bryce Young. 464 00:19:24,708 --> 00:19:26,988 Speaker 3: At the moment after a season in two games, well, 465 00:19:27,068 --> 00:19:29,188 Speaker 3: unless you have a Cement Wall as an offensive line, 466 00:19:29,188 --> 00:19:31,348 Speaker 3: I don't think you can put Bryce Young up with 467 00:19:31,388 --> 00:19:34,548 Speaker 3: any team. I mean, right, and Kyle, I'm so glad 468 00:19:34,588 --> 00:19:38,068 Speaker 3: you brought up the college era of Bryce Young, because 469 00:19:38,428 --> 00:19:41,428 Speaker 3: that is the entire reason why the Panthers made the 470 00:19:41,468 --> 00:19:43,508 Speaker 3: trade with the Chicago Bears to go get him. That 471 00:19:43,908 --> 00:19:46,508 Speaker 3: his entire college career is the reason why he was 472 00:19:46,548 --> 00:19:50,068 Speaker 3: even in that conversation for CJ. Stroud for which quarterback 473 00:19:50,148 --> 00:19:52,868 Speaker 3: was going to go number one overall? Watching Bryce Young 474 00:19:52,948 --> 00:19:56,108 Speaker 3: operate in college, not I am going away from the football. 475 00:19:56,108 --> 00:19:58,788 Speaker 3: I am going as a man, as a sideline guy, 476 00:19:58,948 --> 00:20:02,588 Speaker 3: as a leader of a team that had so much 477 00:20:02,948 --> 00:20:05,348 Speaker 3: talent on it, as a quarter of a team coach 478 00:20:05,428 --> 00:20:08,428 Speaker 3: by Nick Saban, one of the most intimidating and powerful 479 00:20:08,468 --> 00:20:12,308 Speaker 3: personalities in football. Bryce Young held his own beyond that. 480 00:20:12,428 --> 00:20:14,548 Speaker 3: And again, this is away from the skill set because 481 00:20:14,748 --> 00:20:17,748 Speaker 3: there's been loads of examples of guys who had it 482 00:20:17,788 --> 00:20:19,708 Speaker 3: in college and did it in the NFL from a 483 00:20:19,708 --> 00:20:23,708 Speaker 3: skill set perspective, but from a leadership perspective. As a 484 00:20:23,788 --> 00:20:26,068 Speaker 3: number one overall pick, there is a reason why the 485 00:20:26,108 --> 00:20:28,108 Speaker 3: Panthers went with Bryce Young to have in their building. 486 00:20:28,148 --> 00:20:31,988 Speaker 3: He is an impressive, smart, charismatic young man. He's a 487 00:20:32,028 --> 00:20:35,148 Speaker 3: little on the quiet side, so he's not gonna yell 488 00:20:35,188 --> 00:20:37,148 Speaker 3: at you. He's not going to jump off the sideline. 489 00:20:37,228 --> 00:20:41,188 Speaker 3: But he is mature, he is grounded. He is impressive, 490 00:20:41,548 --> 00:20:43,748 Speaker 3: and I hope this doesn't break him because he has 491 00:20:43,788 --> 00:20:46,228 Speaker 3: been one of the most incredible young people I've ever 492 00:20:46,268 --> 00:20:48,628 Speaker 3: been around that was able to command again a team 493 00:20:48,868 --> 00:20:51,068 Speaker 3: that had a ton of talent on it on that 494 00:20:51,148 --> 00:20:53,708 Speaker 3: Alabama squad. To have been coached up as hard as 495 00:20:53,708 --> 00:20:57,068 Speaker 3: he was by Nick Saban, for this to happen to him, 496 00:20:57,188 --> 00:20:59,388 Speaker 3: it's brutal. Again, I'm not trying to say it should 497 00:20:59,428 --> 00:21:01,828 Speaker 3: or shouldn't have happened. Clearly something wasn't right with him. 498 00:21:02,028 --> 00:21:05,188 Speaker 3: But as our old colleague Jason mccordy, uould say, he's 499 00:21:05,308 --> 00:21:07,708 Speaker 3: number one overall pick, he'll get another chance or frankly 500 00:21:07,788 --> 00:21:09,868 Speaker 3: three or four in the NFL if it doesn't happen 501 00:21:09,908 --> 00:21:10,828 Speaker 3: with the Carolina Panthers. 502 00:21:10,908 --> 00:21:14,228 Speaker 10: I totally agree. This is to me organization will mess up. 503 00:21:14,628 --> 00:21:16,788 Speaker 10: They've messed this young kid up in his opportunity, but 504 00:21:16,828 --> 00:21:17,868 Speaker 10: he'll get another chance with. 505 00:21:17,828 --> 00:21:18,348 Speaker 8: A good coach. 506 00:21:18,508 --> 00:21:21,108 Speaker 3: We were really looking forward to the rest of the 507 00:21:21,148 --> 00:21:22,668 Speaker 3: morning for a lot of reasons, because we love doing 508 00:21:22,668 --> 00:21:25,508 Speaker 3: four hours of football TV, but also because Saquon Barkley 509 00:21:25,548 --> 00:21:27,348 Speaker 3: was going to come on the show this hour, and 510 00:21:27,388 --> 00:21:30,068 Speaker 3: we were shocked and Kyle, we were having this conversation 511 00:21:30,108 --> 00:21:32,308 Speaker 3: in Peter Akwar, is he going to come on? Is 512 00:21:32,308 --> 00:21:34,068 Speaker 3: he going to come. It was a commitment that he 513 00:21:34,068 --> 00:21:36,748 Speaker 3: has with Applebee's or loving those commercials that Dan Campbell 514 00:21:36,868 --> 00:21:38,708 Speaker 3: is on. Sego Barkley not going to be on the 515 00:21:38,748 --> 00:21:41,348 Speaker 3: show this morning, but he will reschedule. He will reschedule, 516 00:21:41,548 --> 00:21:41,948 Speaker 3: all right. 517 00:21:43,108 --> 00:21:45,828 Speaker 4: Yeah, And as far as I understand, and I understand 518 00:21:45,868 --> 00:21:48,868 Speaker 4: it pretty well, not Saquon's choice is appearing on behalf 519 00:21:48,908 --> 00:21:51,388 Speaker 4: of an endorsement, the person providing that endorsement or the 520 00:21:51,388 --> 00:21:53,548 Speaker 4: company providing it saying maybe better. 521 00:21:53,388 --> 00:21:54,268 Speaker 5: Off due to another time. 522 00:21:54,348 --> 00:21:56,468 Speaker 4: So this was not Saquon saying cancel this, I don't 523 00:21:56,468 --> 00:21:58,108 Speaker 4: want to do it, nothing like that. As far as 524 00:21:58,108 --> 00:21:59,548 Speaker 4: I understand, he was ready to come on and they 525 00:21:59,548 --> 00:22:01,268 Speaker 4: thought it might be best to do it another time, 526 00:22:01,348 --> 00:22:02,068 Speaker 4: which we will do. 527 00:22:02,268 --> 00:22:03,548 Speaker 8: Yeah, that makes sense. 528 00:22:03,588 --> 00:22:05,868 Speaker 10: I mean, you're going to be in a real bad, 529 00:22:06,308 --> 00:22:07,948 Speaker 10: you know mood, you know what I mean, you just lost, 530 00:22:07,988 --> 00:22:09,588 Speaker 10: and then you're promoting the product, you know what I mean, 531 00:22:09,588 --> 00:22:10,348 Speaker 10: that's not gonna come. 532 00:22:10,228 --> 00:22:12,788 Speaker 8: Off well, So I get it. It makes sense. 533 00:22:15,468 --> 00:22:18,108 Speaker 3: Starting in a hole on your season is never fun. 534 00:22:18,148 --> 00:22:20,988 Speaker 3: There are nine teams that sit squarely at the bottom 535 00:22:20,988 --> 00:22:23,628 Speaker 3: of the well right now. Nine teams with an zero 536 00:22:23,708 --> 00:22:27,948 Speaker 3: to two record since nineteen ninety it's eleven and a 537 00:22:27,948 --> 00:22:29,948 Speaker 3: half percent chance that you're going to make it if 538 00:22:29,948 --> 00:22:31,708 Speaker 3: you start the season oh and two. And by make it, 539 00:22:31,748 --> 00:22:34,788 Speaker 3: I mean to the playoffs. You've got teams like the Ravens, 540 00:22:34,788 --> 00:22:37,828 Speaker 3: the Bengals, the Rams, the Jaguars, anybody at the table 541 00:22:37,868 --> 00:22:39,908 Speaker 3: up bar also with you feel like you have faith 542 00:22:39,948 --> 00:22:41,988 Speaker 3: in a team that is winless right now that you 543 00:22:42,028 --> 00:22:43,908 Speaker 3: think will dig themselves out of set hole. 544 00:22:44,188 --> 00:22:45,788 Speaker 10: Well, I'm going to go with a team that has 545 00:22:45,828 --> 00:22:48,708 Speaker 10: done this before. I'm going to go with the Cincinnati Bengals. 546 00:22:48,748 --> 00:22:51,508 Speaker 10: I mean, they've done this. They have this history of 547 00:22:51,548 --> 00:22:54,148 Speaker 10: starting off slow. I mean going back to twenty twenty. 548 00:22:54,268 --> 00:22:57,228 Speaker 10: You know, in twenty twenty one they started off one 549 00:22:57,268 --> 00:22:59,428 Speaker 10: in one. They ended up making to the playoffs. In 550 00:22:59,468 --> 00:23:02,028 Speaker 10: twenty twenty two, oho and two made it to the playoffs. 551 00:23:02,108 --> 00:23:05,308 Speaker 10: So I think this is something that they they traditionally 552 00:23:05,308 --> 00:23:07,828 Speaker 10: do for whatever reason. But I will say though that 553 00:23:07,948 --> 00:23:09,988 Speaker 10: you know they can be more efficient in the run game. 554 00:23:10,028 --> 00:23:11,908 Speaker 10: This is something the area that we've seen them struggle 555 00:23:11,948 --> 00:23:14,468 Speaker 10: a little bit more on this season. 556 00:23:14,988 --> 00:23:15,988 Speaker 8: They need to create more. 557 00:23:15,828 --> 00:23:19,228 Speaker 10: Opportunities Guseki Mike Koseki. I think they start to utilize 558 00:23:19,308 --> 00:23:22,028 Speaker 10: him more, especially in that vertical you have Jamar Chase 559 00:23:22,068 --> 00:23:24,588 Speaker 10: when t Higgins comes back. I think this to me 560 00:23:24,788 --> 00:23:27,668 Speaker 10: allows them to get back into that rhythm that they 561 00:23:27,668 --> 00:23:29,868 Speaker 10: were used to. They don't have Joe Mixon. That's the 562 00:23:29,908 --> 00:23:32,188 Speaker 10: one area that just gives me a little bit of concern, 563 00:23:32,548 --> 00:23:34,148 Speaker 10: you know, like, what are they going to do in 564 00:23:34,148 --> 00:23:35,908 Speaker 10: that run game because you need that run game to 565 00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:37,708 Speaker 10: be able to stretch that passing game. 566 00:23:38,108 --> 00:23:40,348 Speaker 4: Listen, you don't get out of other two holes. I 567 00:23:40,348 --> 00:23:42,588 Speaker 4: think with players, think you do it with coaches. And 568 00:23:42,668 --> 00:23:44,508 Speaker 4: I've said this over and over. I think the best 569 00:23:44,508 --> 00:23:46,428 Speaker 4: coach in the NFL is Sean McVay. And I will 570 00:23:46,428 --> 00:23:48,388 Speaker 4: go with the Rams and I know it's really tough, 571 00:23:48,628 --> 00:23:51,308 Speaker 4: and they just got absolutely slaughtered by the Cardinals, and 572 00:23:51,348 --> 00:23:53,868 Speaker 4: the offensive line is hurt, and Puka is hurt and 573 00:23:53,908 --> 00:23:56,428 Speaker 4: Cooper Cupp is hurt, they'll find a way. I believe 574 00:23:56,468 --> 00:23:59,188 Speaker 4: in that coach. I believe in that quarterback. If anybody 575 00:23:59,228 --> 00:24:01,228 Speaker 4: has the makings to do this, it's a quarterback has 576 00:24:01,228 --> 00:24:01,748 Speaker 4: seen everything. 577 00:24:01,748 --> 00:24:03,988 Speaker 11: A coach has seen everything. I know you hear all 578 00:24:03,988 --> 00:24:06,508 Speaker 11: the percent every time, and we just started the second 579 00:24:06,548 --> 00:24:09,068 Speaker 11: with him. I think Sean McVay is oblivious to those 580 00:24:09,148 --> 00:24:11,348 Speaker 11: I just certainly think he is immune to those I 581 00:24:11,348 --> 00:24:12,468 Speaker 11: think that highly of him. 582 00:24:12,548 --> 00:24:13,868 Speaker 5: And to play the schedule game. 583 00:24:13,908 --> 00:24:17,188 Speaker 4: If you want to fine San Francisco this week, bring 584 00:24:17,188 --> 00:24:19,868 Speaker 4: it on. Devo's out, McCaffrey's out. 585 00:24:19,988 --> 00:24:21,628 Speaker 5: Week after that, they're playing the Bears. 586 00:24:21,828 --> 00:24:22,988 Speaker 8: The week after that, they're. 587 00:24:22,788 --> 00:24:25,028 Speaker 4: Playing Green Bay, likely again without Jordan Love. 588 00:24:25,068 --> 00:24:26,908 Speaker 5: Then they hit the buye. I think they can do it. 589 00:24:26,948 --> 00:24:28,708 Speaker 4: If I had to bet on anybody, I would bet 590 00:24:28,708 --> 00:24:30,028 Speaker 4: on Sean McVay to do it. 591 00:24:30,108 --> 00:24:32,588 Speaker 5: That's my team, the Rams, Like you man, I don't know, 592 00:24:32,868 --> 00:24:33,268 Speaker 5: I don't know. 593 00:24:33,348 --> 00:24:35,948 Speaker 2: I'm usually I'm usually big on on the Rams too. 594 00:24:35,988 --> 00:24:38,548 Speaker 5: I look at those injuries right now, those are real stuff. 595 00:24:38,668 --> 00:24:42,148 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup, Puku Nakula, Steve Avila, Like, I don't know 596 00:24:42,188 --> 00:24:44,028 Speaker 2: if there's just some magic, but they got they got 597 00:24:44,068 --> 00:24:45,028 Speaker 2: their butts too, hick. 598 00:24:44,908 --> 00:24:46,948 Speaker 8: If McVeigh it's hurt him, worried. Other than that, as long. 599 00:24:46,828 --> 00:24:48,588 Speaker 5: As he's here, I have face, and I think that's 600 00:24:48,628 --> 00:24:51,908 Speaker 5: where I'm at. It's like, yeah, I don't know. If 601 00:24:51,908 --> 00:24:53,228 Speaker 5: I could just say the Rams are fine, I. 602 00:24:53,588 --> 00:24:55,468 Speaker 2: Don't know if that goose is cooked already, you know, 603 00:24:55,508 --> 00:24:57,828 Speaker 2: And I would never doubt McVeigh and Stafford. But when 604 00:24:57,828 --> 00:25:00,108 Speaker 2: it's Covey and Stafford and you're looking around and you're saying, whoever, 605 00:25:00,508 --> 00:25:02,748 Speaker 2: it's tough the Ravens say, well, the Ravens are you 606 00:25:02,788 --> 00:25:04,388 Speaker 2: know they were the MVP, and you know they were. 607 00:25:05,068 --> 00:25:08,428 Speaker 2: Raymond had two horrible losses, horrible losses. That lost to 608 00:25:08,548 --> 00:25:10,508 Speaker 2: Kansas City was a tough one. The loss to the 609 00:25:10,588 --> 00:25:12,068 Speaker 2: Raiders was as battle Law. It was worse than the 610 00:25:12,068 --> 00:25:14,388 Speaker 2: Eagles last night. You can't give up ten point lead 611 00:25:14,628 --> 00:25:16,748 Speaker 2: at home in the fourth quarter. So you start going 612 00:25:16,748 --> 00:25:18,348 Speaker 2: down these teams of the O and two and you're like, well, 613 00:25:18,348 --> 00:25:21,348 Speaker 2: the Bengals, the team that played the best that's O 614 00:25:21,468 --> 00:25:22,748 Speaker 2: and two is the Tennessee Titans. 615 00:25:23,748 --> 00:25:26,908 Speaker 5: They've played the best. They lost that I lost that 616 00:25:26,988 --> 00:25:30,188 Speaker 5: Chicago Bears game. Titans. Titans were up on that one 617 00:25:30,308 --> 00:25:32,948 Speaker 5: seventeen nothing, seventeen to nothing, and they lost. Their defense 618 00:25:32,948 --> 00:25:35,788 Speaker 5: played really well. And then the Jets they were they 619 00:25:35,828 --> 00:25:37,668 Speaker 5: were in that game too, and they lost. And if 620 00:25:37,668 --> 00:25:39,428 Speaker 5: there's not a couple of mental errors. 621 00:25:39,468 --> 00:25:41,868 Speaker 2: So, and this sounds crazy, you're talking about he's playing 622 00:25:41,908 --> 00:25:44,748 Speaker 2: the best football of all these teams. The Tennessee Titans 623 00:25:44,748 --> 00:25:46,948 Speaker 2: have the team I would go answer, Titans. 624 00:25:46,708 --> 00:25:48,948 Speaker 3: A brutal start for if you look at the top 625 00:25:48,988 --> 00:25:52,188 Speaker 3: of that list, the Baltimore Ravens because they have to 626 00:25:52,268 --> 00:25:55,148 Speaker 3: go to Dallas this weekend in a game that I 627 00:25:55,188 --> 00:25:57,748 Speaker 3: believe we found out yesterday that Tom Brady is on 628 00:25:57,748 --> 00:25:59,748 Speaker 3: once again. When we look at that list, can we 629 00:25:59,748 --> 00:26:01,628 Speaker 3: see the list again? Okay, because there is a history 630 00:26:01,708 --> 00:26:03,948 Speaker 3: lesson that I would like to take you all down here, Peter. 631 00:26:04,748 --> 00:26:07,108 Speaker 3: There are three teams. Look at this list.

Peter, just go out on 637 00:26:23,788 --> 00:26:26,308 Speaker 3: a limb and just a little synopsis maybe against the 638 00:26:26,468 --> 00:26:28,668 Speaker 3: teams and why they did that and how they were 639 00:26:28,708 --> 00:26:29,668 Speaker 3: able to accomplish it. 640 00:26:30,228 --> 00:26:33,348 Speaker 5: All right, ninety three Cowboys, Jamie happy to ask. EMMITTT. 641 00:26:33,388 --> 00:26:35,788 Speaker 5: Smith held out the first two games. Emmett Smith was 642 00:26:35,788 --> 00:26:36,468 Speaker 5: not in the lineup. 643 00:26:36,508 --> 00:26:39,628 Speaker 2: They had little Derek Lassiter taking carries instead. 644 00:26:39,668 --> 00:26:41,548 Speaker 5: They go to Emmett Smith. They get their team back, 645 00:26:41,588 --> 00:26:43,228 Speaker 5: they go oh one Patriots. 646 00:26:43,228 --> 00:26:45,548 Speaker 2: Of course, the nine to eleven year, So goes down, 647 00:26:45,988 --> 00:26:48,708 Speaker 2: Brady comes in, they catch heat, Brady goes on to. 648 00:26:48,708 --> 00:26:51,628 Speaker 5: Some miracle run. The seven Giants. They had a goal line. 649 00:26:51,668 --> 00:26:53,748 Speaker 5: They lost to the Packers by about a million. Week one. 650 00:26:53,908 --> 00:26:56,628 Speaker 5: Week two, they're in Washington and the season's on. 651 00:26:56,668 --> 00:26:59,988 Speaker 2: They had this goal line stand Week three. I'm sorry, 652 00:26:59,988 --> 00:27:02,308 Speaker 2: also the Cowboys and Packers to start the season. Week 653 00:27:02,348 --> 00:27:05,188 Speaker 2: three goal line stand in Washington. Antonio hears of all people, 654 00:27:05,228 --> 00:27:07,908 Speaker 2: makes the stop Giants rally around that they go on 655 00:27:07,988 --> 00:27:11,148 Speaker 2: their run. Some team needs to make some big winning 656 00:27:11,188 --> 00:27:13,188 Speaker 2: game in the third game this week. And it might 657 00:27:13,228 --> 00:27:15,388 Speaker 2: be the Ravens, it might be the it might be 658 00:27:15,468 --> 00:27:17,348 Speaker 2: the Rams, might be the Bengals. 659 00:27:17,348 --> 00:27:19,348 Speaker 5: But like, you got to have that rally around as 660 00:27:19,388 --> 00:27:21,828 Speaker 5: galvanize us moment. And right now, those teams that are 661 00:27:21,868 --> 00:27:22,988 Speaker 5: zero and two, I haven't seen it yet. 662 00:27:23,028 --> 00:27:25,268 Speaker 3: Okay, Kyle, Now I go to you because you always 663 00:27:25,268 --> 00:27:27,668 Speaker 3: look at storylines.
