1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour Dan and The Dan as Dan 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: Patrick Show. What a wild day so far? Cam Newton 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: got cut? Or did he get released? Did he ask 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: to be released before he was going to get cut? 6 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,159 Speaker 1: Not sure if we'll ever find out. Tom Kern the 7 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: Patriots insider who was with us earlier in the show 8 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: prior to the announcement that Cam was cut, and Tom 9 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: Kerran will join us coming up here momentarily. But they're 10 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: all in on Mac Jones now. And the question is 11 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: does Cam Newton get another job? I didn't think Cam 12 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: would be fine with being a backup quarterback, and I 13 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: think that that's what a lot of teams looked at 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: if they were going to bring in Cam Newton. It'd 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: be nice to have him as a backup quarterback. But 16 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: Cam still feels like he can play. And even now, 17 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: does Washington pick him up? Would you rather have Cam 18 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: Newton or Ryan Fitzpatrick in there? Could he go to 19 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: the Colts and be a backup quarterback? I don't. I 20 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: just don't see him be in a backup quarterback. Could 21 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: he go to Baltimore? I mean he may not have 22 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: a choice, but in his mind, Will he accept that? 23 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 1: How much does he want to be on a roster? 24 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: I'd be curious about that with Cam Newton, but I 25 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: thought Cam was going to start for the Patriots. I 26 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: couldn't imagine that Bill Belichick was going to start this 27 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: season with a rookie quarterback. But if you, I mean, 28 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: once again, we'll never find this out. But if you said, Belichick, 29 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 1: do you want to beat Tom Brady with Cam Newton 30 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,919 Speaker 1: or Mac Jones? Oh, he's all in on Mac Jones. 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: Be like, I'm going to bring out you know, mini 32 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: me Tom Brady to face Tom Brady in New England 33 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: in week four and he would love that. Eight seven 34 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: seven three d P Show email address DPN, Dan Patrick 35 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. We will check 36 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: in with the New Orleans Saints, who were in Dallas 37 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: now because of her Kane Ida And I don't know 38 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: if that season opener against the Packers is in jeopardy 39 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: in New Orleans and what might be planned being Let's 40 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 1: bring in Tom Kerran, the NBC Sports Boston Patriots outsider. 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: Apparently you were an insider a couple of hours ago, 42 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: but Cam gets released. What happened here? Well, I told 43 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: you that mac Jones was going to be the starter. 44 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: What do you mean, outsider? Yeah, but did you know 45 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: that Cam would be released? I didn't know how things 46 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: would come to pass. But I mean, I'm telling you 47 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: out here that Mac, I mean, I'm telling you. I mean, Dan, 48 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: I'm on it. I said mac Jones is going to 49 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: be the starter. Now. Whatever Kim's reaction was to that, 50 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: I consume that probably wasn't that positive because he is 51 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: now no longer a New England Patriot. But I just 52 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: think it's an interesting development to me. And I don't 53 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: know which is more interesting, the fact that they've let 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 1: him go where he asked to be let go, yeah, 55 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: the fact that they've gone with a rookie quarterback. Probably 56 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: the latter. Yeah. I never thought Bill would go with 57 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: the rookie quarterback. Just didn't. But I mean, he obviously 58 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: loves what he sees. But I'm guessing Cam, being familiar 59 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: with his ego, he's probably going, you're not cutting me. 60 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to ask for my release. Sure, 61 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 1: I know it's semantics here, but ken he I don't 62 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: even know if somebody's going to be interested in Cam 63 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: because he didn't have any offers until the Patriots scooped 64 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: him up. Yeah, And I mean, here's the things. He's 65 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: an unvaccinated player, who is not an accurate thrower, who 66 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: plays a unique style of quarterback that needs a certain 67 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: set of factors in place to make him his most successful. 68 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: So I think it could be a little bit of 69 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: time before he hooks on with somebody. You know, as 70 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: I said, you know when I call him yesterday and today, 71 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: don't be so sure that Cam's going to be the starter, 72 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: because when you look at Matt Jones's workload compared to Cams, 73 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: they were not preparing Cam Newton to start the season. 74 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: He had two drives against the Giants, he had two 75 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: drives against the Eagles. He missed five days last week. 76 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: There's been very few days, if any, when he's outplayed 77 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: Mac Jones. So the only reason that people were clinging 78 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: to the idea that Cam would start was the fact 79 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: that he was starting preseason games. But that's largely symbolic 80 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: to me. Well, I also think, and you bring up 81 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: some great points here that I don't know if those 82 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: five days that he missed and mac Jones was taken 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: all the reps with the number ones there, what he 84 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: was doing in games like he never felt like he 85 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: was overwhelmed with any of this. But do you think 86 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: not being vaccinated played any role in Cam Newton being 87 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: released by the Patriots. I know the Patriots want their 88 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: players to be vaccinated, period, and I think that last 89 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: week's occurrence, even on a our technicality, not a close contact, 90 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: not a positive test, none of that missing a test 91 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: amplified for them the tenuousness of his availability. So certainly 92 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: that has to weigh into it. Whether that's number five, 93 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: number three, number nine, Absolutely, every single player is going 94 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: to be evaluated on vaccination status. He's tom current Patriots 95 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: insider who told us a couple of days ago that 96 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: Mac Jones should be the starter. And you know you 97 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: got your wish. I didn't care, Dan, I'm just trying 98 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: to chronicle the team, you know, Okay, all right? I mean, 99 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: what's your what's your first question for Belichick when you 100 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: see him? Hey, Bill, you're as excited as I am. 101 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: This is what I wanted. Now, I'll just tell two 102 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: appearances one show. I think the vaccination status is not 103 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: a horrible question because it's it absolutely as a factor. Absolutely. 104 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: I don't I good luck asking the question. It should 105 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: be is mac Jones vaccinated? We can only go on 106 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: without confirmation from him, which he didn't provide. We can 107 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: only go on the signs, which are he walks around unmasked. 108 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: So I'm guessing that he is vaccinated. Thank you again, 109 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: tom Bye did Yeah, well, we'll call you next hour. 110 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: Oh that's right, We're not on next time. Yeah, that's two, 111 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: two appearances. Tom Kerrn NFL Insider for the Patriots Patriots Insider. Yes, Bo, 112 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: that's a heck of a month for Tommy Kerran, because 113 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: I think it was three or four days ago he 114 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: posted his article going all in on mac Jones, and 115 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people up in Boston and elsewhere said, 116 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: you're on an island there, big guy. Well he was 117 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: looking at this. That what he was seeing, like, let's 118 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: take names out of this, let's take everything else out 119 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: of this. Just who's available and how was he performing? 120 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: And mac Jones was available, Campbell was not missed five 121 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: days with COVID to call, and he wasn't playing a 122 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: lot in the preseason, and even when he did, there 123 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: was nothing real special there. Mac Jones thirty six of 124 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: fifty two for almost four hundred yards in the preseason. 125 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: He made a throw against the Giants where I went, 126 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: that's a big boy throw And that was his only 127 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: touchdown he threw during the preseason, and that's the first 128 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: time I went wow, like that was that was great. 129 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: So that's where Tom Brady would have said, hey, you 130 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: can't do a better than that, but he but he 131 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: made a read through an unbelievable pass in a small window. 132 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: And that's the first time. Because you can't really take 133 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: too much from preseason, Like you can watch it and 134 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: you're going, Okay, who are you going against? Second string? 135 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: Are they letting you throw? You know? Is it all 136 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: dump off passes? That was a throw that was legitimately 137 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: an all pro throw. Yeah, McLevin. Yeah. But he makes 138 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: these long. He's been defying expectations in Alabama. He had 139 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: more long throws at Alabama and in preseason, like he 140 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: does seem to be able to throw downfield even though 141 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: you wouldn't think he could. Well, his release is what 142 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: I notice, because if he's not going to be able 143 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: to use athleticism keeping a play alive, how quick are 144 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: you in getting the ball out? And he is extremely 145 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: quick at the line of scrimmage and that serves you well. 146 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: If you've got tight ends that you brought in short passes. 147 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: Maybe you know he can throw the deep ball because 148 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: he did that in Alabama with those receivers. Yeah, Pull 149 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: you said something a few times last year right after 150 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: the college football season about Mac Jones, and you said, 151 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: how do we tell how good he is? Because he's 152 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: he's beating LSU fifty five seventeen Mississippi State forty one 153 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: to zero. There weren't a lot of tight games with 154 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: tight plays that he needed to make, so it more 155 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: looked like he's playing pitch and catch with his great 156 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 1: receivers all year. And it's hard to judge that you 157 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: said it a bunch of times last year. You want 158 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: to see a quarterback when a game is on the line, 159 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: when you got to make a play. Because it goes 160 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: back to UNLV when un LV was going for back 161 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: to back national titles back in the nineties, and I 162 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 1: remember wondering, having a conversation with Bob Leon Sports Center, 163 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: what happens when U and LV gets into a close game, 164 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: if they get into a close game, what happens? Well, 165 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: they were blowing everybody out that year, and then they 166 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: got into a close game where they had to make 167 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: a play, diagram a play, make a play and to 168 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: beat Duke and they didn't do it. A team that 169 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 1: they'd blown out by thirty the previous year in the 170 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: National Championship this time around, when all of a sudden, 171 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: hey we're not up by twenty. We need to make 172 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: a basket and they couldn't diagram a play. That's what 173 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: you want to see with any of these players. How 174 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: do you do when you have to do something? And 175 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,239 Speaker 1: it goes back to I want to see the adversity. 176 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: What happens after the interception? What happens after a fumble? 177 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: What do you do the next series? That tells me 178 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: more about a quarterback than and he threw three touchdown 179 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: passes and you know he was eighteen of twenty four. Okay, 180 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: but if you have somebody who throws an interception, what 181 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: happens after that? What's the next drive? Like you get 182 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: down on yourself, you have a couple in completions, whatever, 183 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: you get sacked a couple of times. That's what that's 184 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: the position. That's the reality of all of this. What 185 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: happens when something bad goes wrong? And then how do 186 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: you respond after that? But Mac Jones getting the start 187 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: Week one versus the Dolphins. Yeah, seedon Cam Newton's feeling 188 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: a little deflated. Thank you, Ryan, Yeah, thank you Ryan. Yes. 189 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: Mac jones last three games last year in college against Florida, 190 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: the SEC title game, which is a tight game, six 191 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: Notre Dame in the first round of the playoffs, Ohio 192 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: State they handled. Both those teams are decent games. He 193 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: threw fifteen touchdowns and one pick in those last few games. Now, 194 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if it factors in two that you're 195 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: starting a rookie quarterback. You host the Dolphins, you're at 196 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: the Jets, you host the Saints, you host the Buccaneers, 197 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: then you're at the Texans, then you host the Cowboys, 198 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: you host the Jets. All right, you know, nothing really 199 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: strenuous on the road. Although you're playing quality opponents at home, 200 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: you're still at home. Yeah. Mclelln. That Football Outsiders column 201 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: they had the Patriots had the projected easiest schedule in 202 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: the NFL and the Bills actually right behind them because 203 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: they get the Jets. Yeah. So these they play the 204 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: AFC South and the NFC South and they get the Jets, 205 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: and maybe the Dolphins are bad too. So the FedEx 206 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: Cup Playoffs final stop the Tour Championship One Last Chance 207 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: for the PGA Tours Ultimate Prize this weekend on NBC, 208 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: and Golf certainly have a hard time with an encore 209 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: performance after what happened this past weekend with Patrick Kentley 210 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 1: and Bryson Deshambou anything else I need to mention here, 211 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: McLevin or Paul the poll question where we're gonna stay 212 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: with with that, I think we need a Cam Newton pole. 213 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: Would you want him on your team? That kind of question? 214 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of fan bases where 215 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: I could think I would want to add Cam Newton. 216 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: I can't imagine given Ron Rivera's public stance on vaccinations 217 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: with you know, he's got an immune system compromised, he 218 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: went through cancer. He's been very vocal about his players 219 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: getting vaccinated. Would Ron Rivera want to bring in Cam 220 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: Newton to Washington? Had him in Carolina? But you know 221 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: that might be one of those if Ron is talking 222 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: to him saying Cam, I'm not going to entertain this 223 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: until you get vaccinated. I don't know if it comes 224 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: down to that, but it might, yeah, Paul, And going 225 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: back to what Tom Kernan was saying, about Bill Belchick. 226 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: It may not even be like, not even close to 227 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: a political thing or a vaccination thing. Anything that doesn't 228 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: jibe with what the team is trying to do is 229 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: a violation to the team. Anything that takes you out 230 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: for a reason. Maybe that's why Billichick maybe looked at 231 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: that way. The rules for unvaccinated players are not the 232 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: same as those it's for those that are vaccinated. But 233 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: it's clear that COVID nineteen is you know, it's not 234 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: going to be avoided this year, and really regardless of 235 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: the vaccination status, because you just reduce your chances here. 236 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 1: But the testing is different. Unvaccinated players in personnel must 237 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: quarantine if contact tracing determines they are a close contact 238 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: to a positive case, as was the case with Carson Wentz. 239 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: Vaccinated players in personnel do not. I don't know if 240 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 1: that impacts Cam Newton. Would I be surprised? No, I 241 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: mean I can't be surprised now with Cam Newton being 242 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: released and probably saying if I'm not the starter, then 243 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: release me and maybe I get a chance to latch 244 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: on with somebody else. Yes, Polly, I have one more 245 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: pole question. You have to answer it instantaneous. Okay, yes, 246 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: save it or not save it? Uh? Is that the 247 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: question that great? Okay? Should I save it or should 248 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 1: I do it? Now? No? Du no, okay, yeah, I'm ready. 249 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: If all, if we've seen all his best work, is 250 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: Cam Newton to Hall of Fame? No hard no, yeah, 251 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: three time a Pro Bowler league MVP has not been 252 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl since that year twenty fifteen. Yeah, I 253 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: don't think he has the numbers. He's got the rushing 254 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: touchdown numbers. He's got thirty two thousand yards one hundred 255 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: and ninety touchdowns passing, and then you mix in his 256 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: rushing yards. He's a he's at five. I thought he 257 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: was two years away, two Pro Bowl years away from 258 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: being a Hall of Famer. How many rushing touchdowns does 259 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: he have? Seventy? That's good for a running back in 260 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: their career. Yeah, um, about sixty nine of those are 261 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: one yard advice that supposed to be the half half backing. Um, 262 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a whole of famer. Yeah, mcloban, 263 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: I was about to say, you know who is throwing 264 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: a party right now? The Patriots running back room might 265 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: actually see the ball in the red zone. Yeah, oh yeah, 266 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: we take him all the way down to the one 267 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: yard line, and then Cam comes in and runs for 268 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown, and you get it because he's never stopped. 269 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: He's gotten in on it pretty much every time he's 270 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: ever tried to do that. Yeah, but Brady would always 271 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: do that one yard sneak too. They're like, okay, Tom, 272 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: go ahead, get your sneak in there. Yeah. Cam Newton 273 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: has more rushing touchdowns in his career than O. J. Simpson. 274 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: I mean, Hall of famers Thurman, Thomas, Ricky Williams, Todd Gurley, 275 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: Fred Taylor, Eddie George all have fewer touchdowns in their 276 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: career than Can Newton. Yeah, isn't there that narrative that 277 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is better quarterbacks, better at quarterback sneaks than anyone. 278 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: Haven't we heard that before? Is that true? Or is 279 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: he just being selfish and he's the most successful just 280 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: the percentage of getting the first down? Nobody sneaks like 281 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady sneaks. How many rushing touchdowns to You can't 282 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: only say rushing touchdowns for Brady. His longest rushing touchdown 283 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: is one yard. Now he's just get checking because I mean, 284 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: it's not a rushing touchdowns it's kind of a rushing touchdown. 285 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: How many We'll take a break. See if you're gonna 286 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: come up with how many over under? Twenty five? Twenty touchdown? 287 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna save it.

No, but a touchdown 333 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: that I don't know. I think it's a scramble. Yeah, 334 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 1: I remember he ran for twenty two but what's as 335 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: long as touchdown run? It might be four yards? Were 336 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: double checking you might have that right, bless you. Mclemmon, 337 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: we'll check in with the Saints. Come here now. I 338 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: could hear it. Isn't this supposed to be soundproof? Class 339 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: that's in between us? Or was your microphone on? Yeah? 340 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: I was still talking. Oh it picked up on about that. Yeah. 341 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: Joel in Indiana, Hi, Joel, what's on your mind today? 342 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: Ad summer of sixty eight seven pounds thirteen ounces pre 343 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: espin baby, and I would think there would be at 344 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: least a half a dozen teams that would want Cam 345 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: Newton just was espionage and insight to the scheming and 346 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: and the inside play calling for the Patriots. I mean, 347 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: if you're Buffalo, well they got Mitchell Trubisky. I would 348 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: keep Mitchell tru Ski then bringing Cam Newton. Yes, someone 349 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: tweet us the Jets should do exactly that. They have 350 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: one week two and they need a backup. But Cam 351 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: has to be willing to be a backup, and I 352 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: don't think he is. He doesn't want to go to 353 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: backing up Mac Jones, backing up Zach Wilson. Yes, Like 354 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: there's no question who the quarterback is with the Jets. 355 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: At least there was a little bit of a question 356 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: with Mac Jones there. The New Orleans Saints have picked 357 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: their starting quarterback, Jameis Winston. Jeff Duncan covering the team, 358 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: New Orleans Times picking you in sports columnists. Let me 359 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: start with that season opener, given the weather and we 360 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: still have some time here. Is there contingency plans if 361 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: the Saints can't host the Packers that opening weekend? Jeff, Yeah, Dan, 362 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 1: they're working on that right now. I mean, the situation 363 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: is so fluid as you can imagine in New Orleans. 364 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: The power outage is catastrophic. The entire city is still 365 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: out of power, and so there's so many other priorities 366 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: right now in the city beyond the football game. And 367 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: we just talk to Sean Payton this morning. They look 368 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: like the Saints are gonna set up shop in the 369 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: Dallas Fort Worth area for at least the next month 370 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: or so, and he mentioned that they've even looked into 371 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: possibly playing their home games over in Dallas at AT 372 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: and T Stadium. I think that's one of the ideas 373 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: they're knocking around. But there's just so many moving parts here. 374 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: They're trying to make roster cuts today and get players 375 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: out of there, and they've got families members all in 376 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: the hotel and they're gonna have to move hotels. So 377 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: it's a crazy situation, very unprecedented. Well, as you mentioned that, 378 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: their masters at some how finding a way to figure 379 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: these things out. And so is this city, How is 380 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: this city prepared now as opposed to previous hurricanes. Well, 381 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: the sixteen billion dollar hurricane protection levy system certainly is 382 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: the biggest difference. I mean that withstood all the Ida 383 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: floodwaters and that was really one of the great success 384 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: stories of this storm. Unfortunately, the power outages have become 385 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: a crisis, and I don't know. I was asking some 386 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: of my colleagues this morning, as a major American city 387 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: ever been without power for two to three weeks? I 388 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: don't know. We're trying to find that out. We certainly 389 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: have become accustomed to these unprecedented natural disaster situations. And 390 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: the Saints understand this from what they went through in Katrina. 391 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: You can come back to play a football game, but 392 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: what are the living conditions. There's not going to be 393 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: any schools open, there's going to be no healthcare, hospitals 394 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: or already taxed with the COVID situation, there's no running 395 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: water or power. You don't want to be in those conditions. 396 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: And so Sean Payton and Mickey Lewis, the general managers, 397 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: They've been through this a bunch of times, and I 398 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: think they understand the best thing they can do and 399 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: find a safe harbor somewhere else and operate from there. 400 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: But Dallas, who is going to be the home away 401 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: from home maybe for a month, and then they may 402 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: just commit to playing the home game games in Dallas. 403 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: That's what it sounds like they looked into Oxnard, California. 404 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: Sean's experience with the Cowboys. That's where they have their 405 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: training camp. We've been watching that on hard Knocks. That's 406 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: set up perfectly to house a football team. There's a 407 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: hotel right there. It's just too far logistically for the 408 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: Saints to travel. Their first four games are all in 409 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: the East coast of the United States, so it made 410 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: no sense to fly back and forth to the West coast. 411 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: They looked at the Greenbrier, where they had training camp 412 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: from twenty fourteen to twenty sixteen in West Virginia. There 413 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: were some logistical issues there, so it just makes sense 414 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: for them to set up shop. And who knows, this 415 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: could work out better and they could get back quicker. 416 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: So for them being close by and a short plane ride, 417 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: you know, it certainly makes more sense right now. And 418 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: I have to say this, I mean, this is a 419 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: huge I know none of us are going to feel 420 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: sorry for NFL owners, they've got deep pockets, but this 421 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: is an extraordinary expense for the Saints organization having to 422 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: put up family members and two to three hundred people 423 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: in a hotel for at least a month. How patient 424 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: is Sean Payton going to be with Jamis Winston. That's 425 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: a great question. I'm eager to see it. He insists 426 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: Dan that his offense is more user friendly, more quarterback 427 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: friendly than the offense is Jamis Winston has played in 428 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: the past. We're gonna find out. We're gonna see if 429 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: Jamis can avoid those bad Jamis mistakes. And it's not 430 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: just the turnovers, it's it's sacks. He holds the ball 431 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: much longer than Drew Brees did. And I think some 432 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: of those things all of us are going to find out, 433 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: including Sean Payton, in the season once they start operating 434 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: against real NFL defenses. Is Taysom Hill the backup quarterback? Like, 435 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: what is his designation on the roster? Is he back 436 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: to being just an all purpose player? Is somebody else 437 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: the backup quarterback? I think the way it will play 438 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: out is if a long term injury affected Jamis Winston, 439 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: Taysom would be the starter. But in a game during 440 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: the week when Taysom has been operating preparing to be 441 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: the jack of all trades gadget guy, he would not 442 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: come into the game as the backup. It would probably 443 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: be some whoever that is Ian Book or Trevor Simmon, 444 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: we don't know yet who's going to be the backup, 445 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: but then if it were long term, Taysom would go 446 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: back to leading the team the way he did last year. Jeff, 447 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: thank you. I know you've got a lot to write 448 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: about and certainly a lot to explore here over the 449 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: next month, and hopefully that city is able to bounce back. 450 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: It's resilient, but going through it again. Thanks for joining us, Jeff, Yeah, 451 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: thanks for having me on Dan. I appreciate it. That's 452 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: Jeff Duncan, New Orleans Times pick a Une sports columnist. Yeah, 453 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: the Dallas situation going to be there for at least 454 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 1: a month and then maybe playing your home games there. 455 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,959 Speaker 1: That's why I was curious, and I told Fritzie's had 456 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: reached out to Jeff because I think that that opening 457 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: weekend game against Green Bay is in jeopardy in New 458 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: Orleans just because of the power rountages. Yeah, is that 459 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: just a major disadvantage if they did have to play 460 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: in Dallas. Oh, that's a great home field advantage in 461 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: New Orleans and getting fans back after not having fans, 462 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: And you know, if you're Jamis Winston, you want familiarity 463 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: for him as he's going to start for the Saints 464 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: and now you're you're coming in, You're you're gonna succeed 465 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. And I don't think they're a great team. 466 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: I think they're a good team, and I guess it 467 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: depends on Jamis Winston if they're going to be a 468 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: great team. But I think that's still a very formidable 469 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: team there. And if you look at the NFC, how 470 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: many teams have a legitimate chance to win the NFC? 471 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: You certainly have Tampa, Green Bay. You can look at 472 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: three of those teams in the NFC West, but it 473 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: feels like they're going to be knocking each other off. 474 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: Anybody in the NFC East. Washington, Well, if you could 475 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: combine Dallas with Washington, you would have a great team. 476 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: Good idea, Yeah, but they that's a rivalry and they 477 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: don't like you finally have a defense in Dallas. The line. Yeah, Um, 478 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: who else am I leaving out here? Falcons, Carolina. I 479 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: guess I'd guess I'd put in the Saints. But I mean, 480 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: you probably have five teams right now. I don't know 481 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: if there's a team that gonna come out of nowhere. 482 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna go Wow, didn't see that happening, Like, 483 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: is Minnesota capable of doing that? Yeah, Paul. With the 484 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: NFC West, it's like you like them all, but you 485 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: don't know if you love any of them because anyway 486 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,120 Speaker 1: they all, they all seem to be You can make 487 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: a case, you can make a case for all three 488 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: being good enough to play in an NFC title game. 489 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: And the Cardinals are going to knock off somebody. They'll 490 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: play the spoiler role again. Yeah, MC Cardinals heavy two 491 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: fifteen All Star team. They we're gonna get to see 492 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: JJ Watt, aj Green, all these names. We forgot her there. 493 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: But nobody's talking about them is anything more than an 494 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: A and eight team. I haven't heard them predicted in 495 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: the conversation. Well, they would be either nine and eight 496 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: or eight and nine. Well play and yeah, that's why 497 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,239 Speaker 1: they're not talking about them going eight and eight. They 498 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: could be eight and eight going into their final game 499 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: of the season. Um, it's just a tough that's a 500 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: tough division. You know, you expect the Rams to be good, 501 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: the Niners and UH and Seattle. Trey Lance is gonna 502 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: miss a week. He's got a chip, I guess out 503 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: of his finger. Um so but he wasn't starting. What 504 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: does that mean? A chip out of your finger? Did 505 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: you get the Oh? Yeah, By the way, they said, 506 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: it's no big deal. That sounds like a big deal 507 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: for a quarterback, but they wouldn't say which finger it was. 508 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: It's always like when they say, oh, it's minor surgery, 509 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: it's not minor surgery. The person has surgery, having had surgeries. 510 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: When they go, oh, yeah, that's a minor surgery, I go, 511 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: they still put me under Yeah, Paul I got the 512 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: article and they the forty nine ers won't say whether 513 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: it's his passing hand or not. His pass hand doesn't 514 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: mean it is his passing hand, because if it wasn't 515 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: his passing hand, they would trumpet that it's not his 516 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: passing hand. Come on, we were talking last hour about 517 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: this h this faux high school in Columbus, Ohio, Bishops Sycamore, 518 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: and they played on national TV over the weekend on 519 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: ESPN against IMG Academy out of Orlando, which is a 520 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: very real high school team, and then we started thinking 521 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: about the sports hoaxes of all time. Now, this team 522 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: isn't good. They didn't win a game last year and 523 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: they got blown out by IMG Academy. But when you 524 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: think about Danny Almonte in the Little League World Series 525 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: was dominating. He was a household name. Thought he was 526 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: gonna go from Little League World Series to the Yankees. 527 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: Rosie Ruiz, she won the Austin Marathon. Man Ti Teo 528 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: with the fighting Irish and his fake girlfriend, that that 529 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: might be the wildest one of our career because that 530 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: man Ti Teo was the face of Notre Dame. They're playing, well, 531 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: they're back, They're in the National Championship picture. He a 532 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: defensive player, was the face of the team. And there's 533 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: a story about his grandmother passing away and his girlfriend 534 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: passing away and all these articles and then dead Spin 535 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: dropped that story one morning and we all had to 536 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: soak it in. But go back and read that. But 537 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: also at one point he knows it's not true, and 538 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: Notre Dame knew it wasn't true. And then you're just 539 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: kind of, let's hold on until you know the playoffs 540 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: are over. Yeah, Paully, if you read the article when 541 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,479 Speaker 1: he's sitting there at the Heisman ceremony, it's in question 542 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: whether he knew he was being scammed or didn't know 543 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: he's being scammed in he's on National TV at the 544 00:30:54,800 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: Heisman ceremony. Dang, and he yeah, at one point he 545 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: knew it. But then what do you say you got catfished? 546 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: Because this is one of those Oh it's Notre Dame 547 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: and the media is gonna fall. Oh my god, this story. 548 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: Oh let's where this is at thirty for no, not 549 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: thirty for thirty. This is like a sequel to Rudy there, 550 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna have the Man tie Tail movie. Yeah, Ton, 551 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: how could someone allow themselves to be catfished? How humiliating? 552 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: How could that happen? It didn't happen to you at 553 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: that level, thankfully, I mean it happened to you, it 554 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: just didn't happen at that level. Jennifer Love Hewett is 555 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: still very much alive. She is. Yeah, but we thought 556 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: that we were. We had reached out to Jennifer Love 557 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: Hewett and we thought we were getting her on and 558 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: Todd had some communication and emails, and then I kept saying, 559 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: she has nothing, she will have nothing to do with 560 00:31:54,840 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: this show. Agency Wilster Boulevards, Santa Monica decided us had 561 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: the right zip code and everything from this aged person. 562 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, poorly there's a Nevada high school football player 563 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: about a decade ago, and he was a decent high 564 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: school football player. He's a big offensive lineman, and he 565 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: held like a you know, the ceremony where you have 566 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: the three hats at the high school. Yeah. I'm not 567 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: gonna give about this kid's name because I'm sure he 568 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: wants to move on from this, but he was a 569 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: decent high school football player. He decided to have one 570 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: of those ceremonies in his high school gym that local 571 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: reporters came and he put three hats out like us 572 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: LA cal and Oregon, and he goes, I've decided to 573 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: take my talents to cal and he put the hat on. 574 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: The whole high school goes crazy. Unfortunately, he was not 575 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: being recruited by cal usc UCLA or any other school. 576 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: He made up the whole thing. He was not being 577 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: recruited by anybody, but he did the whole ceremony in 578 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: front of his whole school. Talked to the local press. 579 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: Now he claimed that he was duped into believing he 580 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: was being recruited to play in the pack tenth and 581 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: then I guess he admitted that he made up the 582 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: whole story. When you see him put on the hat 583 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: and and the gymnasium is backed, and he puts it 584 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: on and then he stands up. Now it looks like 585 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: he's a pretty good sized kid, but he stands up 586 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: and people are celebrating. So if this was a scam 587 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: by him, what was his plan for the next day. 588 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what happens when Hey, I thought you 589 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: were playing college football it didn't work out, Like, what 590 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: do you say, do you then have to go to Cow? 591 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: Walk on? I don't even know if he could get 592 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: into Cow. What happened about with that Spanish Paralympic basketball 593 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: team scandal? Okay, so in the two thousand Olympics Paralympics, 594 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: a team from Spain, the majority of the players on 595 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: their team were not in any way eligible to be 596 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: in the Paralympics. They were they were not eligible, and 597 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: they scammed the team and they put normal ath lates 598 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: in the in the wheelchairs and uh, some officials with 599 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: the team they want and the problem with they won 600 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 1: the gold medal, but they weren't. They weren't Paralympians, whatever 601 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 1: phrase you want to use. They were not eligible to 602 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: play in the Paralympics, and they the whole basketball you know, 603 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: the wheelchair basketball team was ineligible and they scam people 604 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: and they go on the gold and then it came 605 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: out that they were not paralympians. Yes, is there a 606 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: worse type of cheek than that? It cannot be a 607 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: worse story. They're pretending that you need to be in 608 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,919 Speaker 1: a wheelchair and that you're a paraplegiate to win a medal? 609 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: Are you kidding?

Houston Texans, all right, 643 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 1: Seeton O'Connor junior, the third Yeah, I just really struck 644 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: with the idea or I guess it's more like the 645 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: fact that nobody wanted him in the off season and 646 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: then he ended up back with the Patriots. But a 647 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: lot of things have changed since then. Can I also 648 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: say the Texans?

All right? 655 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: I would have said Washington and be reunited with Ron Rivera, 656 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,439 Speaker 1: But because of COVID and not being vaccinated like they're 657 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 1: I don't see Washington. I don't see Dallas because Jerry 658 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: Jones has been very vocal about his players being vaccinated. 659 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 1: And Washington. I would throw that in there as well. 660 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Cam doesn't play this year because nobody 661 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: wanted him before, unless somebody saw something and they go, 662 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: you know what, he's kind of rounding back into shape 663 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,280 Speaker 1: where he was in twenty fifteen. But I just don't 664 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if he can be a backup mentally. 665 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: Maybe he waits for an injury and then or you know, 666 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: somebody is going to call him if there is an 667 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: injury when there is. But I'm gonna say he doesn't play. 668 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 1: By the way, longest career rushing touchdown for Tom Brady 669 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: ten yards. No other regular whoa no other regular season 670 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: rushing touchdown longer than four yards. He has a six 671 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: yarder and a five yarder in the postseason. That's when 672 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: he was elusive. Yeah, a ten yarder. That's probably one 673 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: of those where the entire field is spread and then 674 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: he just runs up the middle into the end zone. 675 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,439 Speaker 1: I doubt if there was any joking going on there. Yeah, 676 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: remember he had that run where he joked Brian Urlocker 677 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: the Bears, Yes, and Erlocker looked really bad, and we 678 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,800 Speaker 1: had Rlocker studio we replayed it for him. He was 679 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: so upset I know he was. That was that was mean. 680 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys uh saw this story. 681 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking to the audience, not that you can talk 682 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: back to me. But Andy Murray was upset with his 683 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: playing opponent at the US Open, and his playing opponent 684 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 1: went to the bathroom. Stefano Sitsipas nailed him. Yeah, and 685 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: uh he was he was. He took a nine minute 686 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: bathroom break, and uh, Andy Murray and another opponent who 687 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 1: had to go through the same thing in Cincinnati against 688 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: this player, thinks that he was cheating, receiving improper coaching 689 00:39:55,239 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: via his cell phone. You're not allowed to do that. 690 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: But he went to the bathroom for nine minutes and 691 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,959 Speaker 1: then came back. Now, Andy Murray has battled all kinds 692 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: of injuries and former Wembledon champ and as an older player, 693 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: evening match, you know, probably not the best thing for 694 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: your bones as you're waiting for your opponent who is 695 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: in the bathroom for nine minutes and then comes out. Yes, time, 696 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to point fingers, but I have We 697 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 1: all know about my gi issues, but I will say 698 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: it can be done in four to five minutes. I've 699 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: gone during a commercial break We don't really have much 700 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: more than about four or four and a half minutes 701 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: to get things done and should not take double that 702 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: amount of time. So I don't know what he's doing 703 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: in there. You would be a color analyst, you'd be 704 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: an expert. Bring me like you'd be an insider. Yeah, 705 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to be a stool pigeon, and I'll 706 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: rack the guy out. But I'm just saying stool pigeon. 707 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 1: Come on, all I see no, no, I no, I 708 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 1: got it. Well what I said stool pigeon out of 709 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: the blue and lesten had some kind of connotation to Okay, 710 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, he needs to get that done quicker, thank you. Yes, 711 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: when Czi passes in a game and uh it goes 712 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: to deuce, does it cause him to get rumbling like 713 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: I gotta excuse myself. Yeah, it's like a mental cute. 714 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: Pauli's suggesting that that's his new nickname is Deuce City 715 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: pass sounds like like an ointment you take help move 716 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: things like salon pause. Yeah, yes, yeah, I had to 717 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: put some SITZI pass on that man. It was burning.

Fact of the Day 719 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: It takes Stefano Citipas twice as long to go to 720 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: the bathroom as it takes Jeff Bezos to fly into space. 721 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 1: Damn combling down on the deuce. Yes, yes, this guy 722 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: should sign like a multi million dollars Meta Musl deal. 723 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: He could make tons of money off this night.
