If you will, what a what a night? 37 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: If you saw the baseball or not, but a double 38 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: barreled action, one good game, one dog food game on 39 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,119 Speaker 1: the divisional round card on a pretty good sporting day. 40 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: Like if you're into this kind of crap, right, if 41 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: you're into it and I'm into it, and I assume 42 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: you are too, this is a good day. It's a 43 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: good day. So yeah, the Brewers and the Cubbies. Now 44 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: that was the nightcap. That was the dud Dud Dud 45 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: dud Dud. Then you had the Phillies earlier and the 46 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: Dodgers that was the undercard. And it's kind of like, 47 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: you know boxing. I used to be a huge not 48 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: a huge boxing I used to go to boxing matches 49 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: in Vegas and everyone's while. You'd go to a boxing 50 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: match and the undercard would upstage the main event. You'd 51 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: be like, Wow, that's not supposed to happen. Well, this 52 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: was it I heard. The assumption was they moved the 53 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: Phillies Dodgers game up because the Eagles were playing in 54 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: the NFL game. I guess they really wanted to make 55 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: sure the Philadelphia sports fans up both their teams suck. Anyway, 56 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: it turns out the game in LA did upstage the 57 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: matchup at the Friendly Confines there in Chicago. So that's 58 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: where we will begin again. If you saw any of 59 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: this stuff or not, maybe you were busy. I don't 60 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: know what you're doing. I'm not in your shoes, all right. 61 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 1: So we had an instant classic at Chavez Ravine. One 62 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: of those moments where years from now you'll be like, hey, 63 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: you remember that JABEBROWNI that Schmendrick for the Phillies. What's 64 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: the guy's name that did the thing you can't do 65 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: at the time? Yeah? That guy? What's Yeah? So the 66 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: game was tied at one, it went to extra innings. 67 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: The bases were lowered. There were two outs in the 68 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: eleventh inning, and the Phillies had a relief pitcher, O'riyan 69 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: Kirkering on the mound. Not a household name he is 70 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: now though, congratulations, you're now a household name. O'Ryan so 71 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: Oriyan Kirkering on the mound. And there was a little 72 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: tapper from Andy Piez back to the mound, and he 73 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 1: fielded the ball, bobbled it and then threw it away 74 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: right past home plate. We could have thrown the first base, 75 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: but instead he threw it right there. Boom, a wild 76 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: throw passed home plate. And after screwing it up and 77 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: Andy Piez gets it done. They't comebacker like he was. 78 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: He failed, but yet succeeded with two outs in the 79 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: eleventh inning, and thanks to the generosity of the Philadelphia Phillies, 80 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: very charitable in the city of brother in Law, the 81 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: Dodgers escape. They get a two to one win and 82 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: they have DECOMMISSI the fighting phills, not a nada, go bye, 83 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: See you later, suckers. Where's your red October? Now? Now 84 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: the story here is I mean, we know, I mean 85 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: you know. Oftentimes we'll come in here if you listen 86 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: to the show on a regular basis, if you listen 87 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: to the Ben Mather Show, we often come in here 88 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: with a knife and we play the blame game. We 89 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: cut up the blame cheese steak, or we blame you 90 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 1: know this, that and the other thing. There's no need 91 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: to play that game, like, we don't need to play 92 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: the game. We know where the blame is on this. 93 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: The blame is rather obvious. It's right between your eyes here. 94 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: So the pitcher O Ryan Kirkering on the mound, he 95 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: hung his head in shame. There he put his hands 96 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: down on his knees after his throat sailed away, sailing 97 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: away right past J. T Va Muto the catcher there 98 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: as as the pinch runner came home to score the 99 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: comet across the plate there and he actually missed the 100 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: plate and then had to go back and touch the 101 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: plate that The Dodgers are onto the National League Championship Series. 102 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: They have to wait till this weekend because the Chicago 103 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: Cubs pummeled the Brewers and so the Cubbies are staying alive, 104 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: and there will be a deciding Game five on Saturday. 105 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know if youre gonna watch that or 106 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: just watch college football, but yeah, I'll check it out. 107 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: Game five. That's good. Somebody's gonna be somebody's gonna be 108 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: very upset at the end of that game. As I've 109 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: often said, the better story is in the losing locker room. 110 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: And one of the mantras is that and another mantras, 111 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: most games are lost, not one. This is a great example. 112 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: This is a textbook example of the ethos of the 113 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: Ben Mathers Show. Most of the time a game is 114 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,119 Speaker 1: lost because someone's a complete f up, like this game, 115 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: and what happened, as we discussed this game is immediately 116 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: instead of just accountability and you know, I know you 117 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: didn't try to suck O'Ryan Kirkering, but just sucked and 118 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: that's it. No, everyone's got our circle the wagons. It's 119 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: not his fault. Oh no, no, it's such bulk. Let's 120 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: hear from Rob Thompson, the manager of the Philadelphia Phillies, 121 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: chiming in on all of this, you little taste of 122 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: what it was like. Take as rob obviously a heartbreaking 123 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: we to lose. 124 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 4: To get a long conversation with Oryan coming off the field, 125 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 4: do you want to share a little what you told him? 126 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 4: Or just to keep his head up? And he just 127 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 4: got caught up in the moment a little bit coming 128 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 4: down the stretcher. He pitched so well for us, and 129 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 4: I feel I feel for him because he's he's putting 130 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 4: it all on his shoulders. But we went as a team, 131 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 4: and we lose as a team. 132 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: So all right, that quote right there is the money quote. 133 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question. Is it unfair to 134 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: put the Philadelphia Phillies loss on O'Ryan kirk ring? Is 135 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: it unfair? So my thoughts on this, I've got Jet Blue, 136 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: who Roberto and Butterball and we will throw all of 137 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: these things together and we are gonna yack aty yack 138 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: under the darkness. So a my position, is it unfair 139 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: to put all of this on the Phillies picture? It 140 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: would be an injustice not to blame him, Like you 141 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: would live in a parallel universe, and life is not 142 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: always fair. We know that right, and you've got your problems. 143 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: I've got my problems. But O'Ryan Kirkering, the picture here 144 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: melted down like a cheap soft pretzel left out in 145 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: the hot summer on Broad Street. You know, sometime late July, 146 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: early August. The moment was too big. He cracked, couldn't 147 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: handle it. He had tight took a syndrome. He choked. 148 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: Call like it is, don't lie, don't pretend, don't don't 149 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: do that crap. This was not some quirky bad hop. 150 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: It was not. It was a routine play a big 151 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: league player makes one hundred percent of the time. It 152 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: wasn't the baseball gods playing some kind of evil trick 153 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: on this Philadelphia Phillies picture. No, no, no, no. He 154 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: flat out choked. He sucked at a time you cannot suck. 155 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,599 Speaker 1: And and unfortunately for him, he decided he wanted to 156 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: go on vacation. Oryan Kirker. He went down to the airport. 157 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,719 Speaker 1: He got a one way ticket from Jet Blue and 158 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: the destination Panic City because he paniced. Baby, And you know, again, 159 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: don't give me the we win as a team, we 160 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 1: lose as a team. Crap. I don't hear that garbage, please, 161 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: You know who didn't lose the game. You can say, well, 162 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: Bryce Harper sucked in this series, that's true, but he 163 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: didn't throw the He didn't throw the ball away. H 164 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber hit some home runs the other day but 165 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: didn't do much else. Kyle Schwarber didn't throw the ball away. 166 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: You know who did throw the ball away.

That's on him. It's 169 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: not little league. He's a you know, a grown up 170 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: young man. It's on him, all right. This wasn't a 171 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: bad inning. This is a career tattoo. Congratulations. You have 172 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: now been branded. No matter whether you stay in Philadelphia, 173 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: you go play for the Red Sox or the Diamondbacks, 174 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 1: or the Mariners, the the Marlins or the Twins or 175 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: the a Holes in Houston, it doesn't matter.

There's no 178 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: removing that tattoo. 179 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: Right. 180 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: It's not now. It's not all bad news because from 181 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: an irishtandaman, this source is not close to the situation. 182 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: The Phillies are already planning a concession item to honor 183 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: a Ryan Kirkering for the twenty twenty sixth season. They're 184 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: gonna be serving up at the snack bar there art 185 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: Choke sandwiches, because that is the official vegetable of O'Ryan, 186 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: the ARTI chuck. Wow. He becomes now the hunchback of 187 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: the Delaware Valley and Philadelphi's gonna eat him alife like 188 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: they do not hand out. Hey, you know you tried 189 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: a good job by you your ribbons. After that, you 190 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: know they chuck batteries at you, and all that mattered 191 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 1: was what happened in that moment, right didn't Matt? You said, 192 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 1: well they were terrible of the Phillies offense. I agree 193 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: with you, they were bad. But the game was even up. 194 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: There were two outs. You get the hit her out, 195 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: Andy Piez. The game continues. You live to play another 196 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: day or in this case, another inning. And the game 197 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: was in his hands. He was on the mound, Ryan Kirkering, 198 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: and he rode the vomit comet. He did. It was 199 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 1: early to ride the vomit come up. But he wrote 200 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: the vomit comment. He is going to wear that for 201 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: the rest of his big league career. He will become 202 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: again the answer to well who am I game? Who 203 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: was the numb nuts pitcher that threw the game away 204 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Phillies. Now you think about the context 205 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: of this as well, how does this loss? Here's another question, 206 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: how does this loss change things going forward for the Phillies. 207 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: So we have the multiverse in play, all right, there 208 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: was a dimension here where the Phillies go on and 209 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: come back and win Game five this weekend in Philly 210 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: and then go on to the NLCS and then the 211 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: World Series, and then they win the championship and everyone celebrates. 212 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: And however, that did not happen in this part of 213 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: the multiverse. The shelf life has run out, the bread 214 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: has become moldy. This was the last best chance for 215 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: this core group to win a championship, and the ball 216 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: was in the hands of Oriyan Kirkering, and he chucked 217 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: it past the catcher. Good afternoon, good evening, and good night. 218 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: Turn at the lads, the parties over see you later. 219 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: And the thing is and you know it, every man, 220 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: woman and child knows it. The Dodgers were vulnerable. They 221 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: were plumped for the taken You know it, and I 222 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: know it. Bryce Harper, he becomes a year older now, 223 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: he'll be thirty three next season, thirty four by next 224 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: October during the playoff run. He's no longer in his 225 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: athletic prime. You've got big time free agents. Jt Ria Muto, 226 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: who was on the receiving end of the wild throw 227 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: that sailed past him. The catcher, the slugger, Kyle Schwarber, 228 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,239 Speaker 1: he's selling some sharp bombs and then maybe the pentagonal 229 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: by him and then Ranger Suarez. They're all free agents. 230 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: That's an old core, oldest in baseball. What a mess now, 231 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: I do like Dave Dombrowski the GM there and he's 232 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to work like a ninja to keep this 233 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: group together. And you know it's a it's a good 234 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: town when the Phillies are winning. They packed the place 235 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: there at Citizens Bank Park. But man, what a debacle. 236 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: What a royal f up. And one guy, one guy 237 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: f the whole thing go up. The whole thing goes 238 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: to flames. Now on the other side, turning the page here, 239 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: the question on this one is what is the vibe 240 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: around the Dave Roberts Dodgers, Like it's you can't really 241 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: feel that great ken ye. I mean you talk about 242 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: the definition of better to be lucky than good, and 243 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: that's exactly what that smelled like. You smell that, Yeah, 244 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: my goodness. You could feel the universe trying to send 245 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: this thing to a game five. And the Dodgers were 246 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: like our guy that left to show Roberto. They were 247 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: driving the struggle bus, the much bally hooed Big Three 248 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: sho Hel Tani greatest player ever, rookie Bets. Do I 249 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: have to apologize for rookie Betsy? Freddie Freeman, I believe 250 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: my math is right. I used some mallort math on this. 251 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: They batted a collective one fifty a womp. When you 252 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: talk about sucking a horrific one six eight for fifty 253 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Affilies. That's the big Blue wrecking crew, 254 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: my fat ass, that's the big Blue wrecking crew. They 255 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: were teetering on the brink. They were wobbling around like 256 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: a guy on a unicycle trying to drive through a hurricane. 257 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: And hey, again, they're lucky. The box score doesn't charge 258 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: rent for squatting. There were a lot of squatters in there, 259 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: a lot of floaters, and the Dodgers anemic offense scored 260 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: two runs in a closeout game, one on a basis 261 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: loaded walk he paces load of walk to Mookie bats 262 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: and the other which ended it the throwing air by 263 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: o Ryan Kirkering on the Andy Piez forty foot bouncer. 264 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: That is not manufacturing runs. That is like walking around 265 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: the parking lot at Disneyland and finding a twenty dollars 266 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: bill is essentially what you did. That's a guardian angel 267 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: in Dodger blue. That's lessorda looking down from Blue Heaven 268 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: doing CPR on your postseason run. Here, they were bailed out. 269 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: That is a government government like bail out here. Now, 270 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: I will say it's not all bad. On a positive note, 271 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: Roki Sazaki has become a glue guy. In the Dodger bullpen, 272 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: he was he was outstanding yet again the bullpen which 273 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: has duct tape and it's got police tape around it 274 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: as well. Man, are they bad? Just a bad group. 275 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: But Suzaki came in there and all of a sudden, 276 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: and when he's on the mound, it's like, ah, everything's good, 277 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: everything's great. We got this. As long as the starters 278 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: can go seven innings, they'll be fine. But to Sazaki, 279 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: with ice water. That's what you want, right That's what 280 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: the other guys had resumes where they had no pulse 281 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: on the mound. But Sazaki's living it right now. And 282 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, if this series turns, he's the guy. He's 283 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: the reason it turned now. And really that's kind of 284 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: the thing that's the vibe the story of this Dodger team, 285 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: the greatest team ever assembled. But yet you look at 286 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: this team the way they played for Dave Roberts, despite 287 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: the payroll and all the star power and all the sizzle, 288 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: they're never clean. It's never pretty. It's stumbling into the 289 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: bar at one point fifty nine in the morning, and 290 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: somehow walking out with a win is what it is. 291 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: And you just you can't rely on cosmic breaks forever. 292 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: You can't do it. It's working right now. It's just 293 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: like a cosmic accident, all right. Quickly, last word, we 294 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: go down to Chicago the late game where Matthew Boyd, 295 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: Boyd was he good? Pitched a two hit you he 296 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: went into the fifth anything the whole game, but that's 297 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: modern baseball. Pitched a two hit ball into the fifth inning, 298 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: and the Chicago Cubbies they put the Milwaukee Brewers lineup 299 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: into a chokehold sixth to nothing in a game that 300 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: didn't even seem that close on a chilly Thursday night 301 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: in Chicago. There they pushed the divisional series all the 302 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: way back up what ninety some on miles up I 303 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: ninety four to Milwaukee for a decisive Game five this 304 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: weekend is Ian Happ, Kyle Tucker, and Michael Bush, the 305 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: ex Dodger all Homer for the Cubbies there and the 306 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: crowd there, they were having a rollicking good time at 307 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: Wrigley Field. They were dancing in the aisles there. It 308 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: was great. It was wonderful. You know why they were 309 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: dancing because Rigny Field is a playground for the blank blanks. 310 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: Eighty five percent of the world's working. The other fifteen 311 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: percent come out here. It's a blank blank that's the Cubs. Yeah, 312 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: that's that is the Cubs. So the Cubs were on 313 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: the brink of elimination after they've lost those first two 314 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: games in the NLDS there in Milwaukee, and look like 315 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: they were not supposed to be on the same field, 316 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: but they held on the other night on Wednesday, and 317 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: so now here we are Boyd Good and the relievers 318 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: Good as well. And so next up the finale, best 319 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: of five, back in Milwaukee again Saturday night. Tickets are 320 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: not available. I think Marlin's Man is gonna be there. 321 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: He was debating whether or not to go. But there's 322 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: no other game that day, so I'm assuming Marlin's man, 323 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: my buddy's gonna be there. He was in Chicago for 324 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,959 Speaker 1: the game. He'll be in. I don't know if he's 325 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: gonna see He said he's thinking about going out to 326 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 1: Seattle for the game here on Friday night. But the 327 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: winner of that series between the Cubs and the Brewers 328 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: will take on the Doyers and that'll be in the NLCS. 329 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: Coming up your better story again, losing a locker room. 330 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: So the questions rather obvious. Where have things gone haywire? 331 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: Where have things gone wrong for the Brewers? So watching 332 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: this game, this was from the Milwaukee side of things, 333 00:18:54,359 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: I call this a butterball game. It was an absolute turkey. 334 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 1: You win ninety seven games, you had the top record 335 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: in the sport. And when you're out there and this 336 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: is a close out game, You've had two close out 337 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: games here. The lights are bright, the stage is all 338 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: yours right there. You want that national attention and your 339 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: little Milwaukee and you go out there and you're in 340 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: the witness protection program, lest your bats are three hits, 341 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: three hits all night. Three hits was Greg Maddox pitching 342 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: for the Cubs, one for thirteen with runners in scoring 343 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: position over the two games at Wrigley. That's not playoff baseball. 344 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: That is a hostage situations what that is. And they 345 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: were literally drowning up there. It wasn't an offense. It 346 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: was a clogged toilet. They didn't have a plunger and 347 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: it could not hit water. As the line goes, they 348 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: could hit water if they fell out of a boat 349 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: and into Lake Michigan, they wouldn't be able to hit 350 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,479 Speaker 1: water there. So the brew crew who left more guys 351 00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: stranded than Spirit airlines during a snowstorm. I was thirteen, 352 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: as we said, thirteen left on base in the two games. 353 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,959 Speaker 1: That is malpractice. Played like a bunch of mamelukes. Now, 354 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: the good news is, despite what every ex jock and 355 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: meat heead athlete likes to say, there is no such 356 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: thing as momentum. It doesn't matter. If there was momentum, 357 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: the Brewers would have eliminated the Cubs because they had 358 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: all the momentum. They had won the first two games 359 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: in Milwaukee, but there is no momentum. It was so 360 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: funny because I was watching some of the coverage of 361 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: the Phillies and the Dodgers and the lead in the 362 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: pregame stuff, and I'm just signing this. It's not very entertaining, 363 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: but I was watching it, and they're like, Oh, the 364 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: Phillies have the momentum. Now, you know they won, they 365 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: dominated the Dodgers. You know they're scaringly Really, there is 366 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: no such thing. Why do people keep repeating something that's 367 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,239 Speaker 1: not true. I don't understand. I don't get it. I 368 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: don't understand. 369 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mellor 370 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on 371 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 372 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: He's Mike Krmen, I'm Dan Bayern. 373 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 5: We have a fantasy football podcast called I Want Your Flexed. 374 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: That's right, Dan. 375 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 6: Every week we're gonna scour the waiver wire to find 376 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 6: the pickups to turbo boost your fantasy lineup six starts, 377 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 6: fantasy football players rankings to get you ready to dominate 378 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 6: the competition. 379 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 5: Listen to I Want Your flex with Mike Carmon and 380 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 5: Met Dan Byer on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts and 381 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 5: wherever you bet your podcasts. 382 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: Fly Eagles fly right into the ground.

Al Michaels was there, Kirk Herb Street, Herbie. 405 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: They had to call in the Amazon as they were 406 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: calling that game. And that is to lead this hour 407 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: from New Jersey, the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles traveling party. 408 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: They went up I ninety five to take on the Giants. 409 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if you were watching, maybe you were 410 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: watching the baseball or not. The theme of the night 411 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: with was youth be served as rookie Cam Scataboo running wild, 412 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: running and stumbling for not one, not two, but three 413 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: three touchdowns and fellow rookie quarterback Jackson Dart had one 414 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: rushing score and another passing The New York Giants Wake 415 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: Up the Echoes. The Giants beat the Eagles thirty four 416 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: seventeen to the final in the Thursday night game. And 417 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: so with that, it was less than a week ago 418 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: that the Eagles had not lost game in forever, and 419 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: now they've lost two games in just a few days. 420 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: The Broncos got them, and now the Giants knocked them down. 421 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: A couple more pegs here, the better story is in 422 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: that losing locker room. So let us discuss the question, 423 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 1: what is the temperature. Let's do a temperature check. What 424 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: is the temperature in the Eagles locker room around Jalen 425 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: hurts at this point. So my observations on this. I've 426 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 1: got Smorgasborg, Smuckers and Tony Stark, and we will combine 427 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: all of these things together, all of them, and we're 428 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: gonna play doctor Jekyl mister Hyde, because Philadelphia in many 429 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: ways is a doctor Jekyl mister Hyde operation of the 430 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: football team. And put all this together, and we're gonna 431 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: make your Babushka's favorite choked cheese steak. Now, the Phillies 432 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: ate the choke cheese steak in many ways. The Eagles 433 00:24:52,960 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: did as well. But Number I said number one, the 434 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:05,959 Speaker 1: Eagles locker room temperature is a gauge. It's redlining right now. 435 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,479 Speaker 1: It's redlining. It's a tender box. It is what's in 436 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: the box. It's a tinder box. At this point, less 437 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: than a week ago, the Eagles were sitting pretty as, Oh, 438 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: we're not winning by a lot, but we're winning and 439 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: that's all that matters. And I did a monologue say 440 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: there's some some issues there in Philadelphia, and of course 441 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: immediately got the blowback. 442 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: You just do. 443 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: That's why you're doing overnights, Fatty. I love that so much. 444 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: It's so good, and so I get that kind of feedback. 445 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: And here we are ten days later. The Eagles have 446 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: now lost twice, and so they were one of the 447 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: last unbeaten teams in the NFL. But now the trap 448 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: door has opened up and they've fallen into a Pitavanaconda's. 449 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: At this point here, things are not going particularly well. 450 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: The Eagles scored as many points in the second half 451 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: as the Fox Sports radio football team. Yes, bupkiss, let's 452 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: hear from Jalen Hurts. It's the Eagles quarterback on what 453 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: exactly were you doing in the second half? Take a listen. 454 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: That's the third straight game you guys didn't score second 455 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 2: half point? 456 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 7: What's going on? Half of the half? 457 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: I gotta be better, gotta be better. 458 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 7: I take on the ship for it, you know, a 459 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 7: lot of a lot of autonomy, a lot of opportunity 460 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 7: there with the ball in my hands and giving those situations, 461 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 7: I have to be a wiser and more detailed with it. 462 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 7: So I always looking in with first, you know, looking 463 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 7: in with on the things that I can control, and 464 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 7: you know, I see a lot of opportunity in this. 465 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: Okay, Yes, you're at a fork in the road and 466 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: it's either you put the thing back on the tracks 467 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: here or that's it. Now. Shut out in the second 468 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: half by a Giants defense which came in ranked twenty 469 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: second in scoring defense twenty sixth in total defense, handed 470 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: a game away last week to the New Orleans Saints 471 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: on offense with turnovers, and yet they made Jalen Hurts 472 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: look like he was trying to throw a medicine ball 473 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: in the second and a half. Now here's the part 474 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: that should make Eagle fans have heartburn, make them really, 475 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: really nervous. You know this, if you're a real Egle fan, 476 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: If I cut you open and cheese steak comes out, 477 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm talking. I'm not talking cheese whiz. I'm talking the 478 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: cheese steak with the pro boloan they just call the 479 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: steak samwich in Philadelia. That locker room has a smell. 480 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: You know that smell. You smell that that's the oh, 481 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: that's the oh smell. Yeah, you've got divas to the right, 482 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: divas to the left. In the wide receiver room. You've 483 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: got your quarterback with an underthrow to the right, an 484 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: overthrow to the left, misreading the defense in the middle, 485 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: AJ Brown giving everything side eye. On the sidelines, you've 486 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: got Devontae Smith starting to stare off into the void. 487 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: And then they just heard from Jalen Hurts. You know, 488 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: mister Joe cool right now and all that. You know, 489 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: it just got to flushed it away. But he does 490 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: play like a guy who's pressing. There was a lot 491 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 1: of behind the scenes drama in Philadelphia this week with 492 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: reports of a meeting between kind of a peace meeting 493 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 1: between the quarterback and the receivers, and they went at it. 494 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: And so this is not the same group that walked 495 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: into stadiums last year and was a juggernaut. Not right now, 496 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: they're not. They look tight, they're detached. And it's not 497 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: always sunny in Philadelphia. That's false advertised always cloudy. It's 498 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: always cloudy there. And the Eagles have all the ingredients necessary, 499 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: all of them to cook up a Smorgsborg of disaster, 500 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: a total Smorgsborg of disaster. If you check the cabinets, 501 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: they've got the ingredients, You've got diva wide receivers. You've 502 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: got the disease of me with with aj Brown and 503 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: Devonte Smith saying they're not getting the ball enough. Davonte 504 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: we mentioned Jalen Hurts with the wild throws. Sekwan Barkley. 505 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: He has been a cookie cutter running back. This year 506 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: he was a super nova. He's now a dime store 507 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: running back. The defense has regressed. It's the middle of 508 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: the pack defense. It's all the ticking time bomb and 509 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: the cherry on top. You've got a head coach who's 510 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: not exactly a calming presence. Nick Sirianni, one of the 511 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: great front runners of our time. Does anyone disagree with 512 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: that when things are going well, he's pounding his chest 513 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: and running around, you know, chest bumping, hi naval gazing, 514 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: all that stuff. And when things aren't going well, uh, 515 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: not so good. Here's Nick Sirianni, the Eagles head coach, 516 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: commenting on the lack of offense. There was none in 517 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: the second half for his. 518 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 8: Team obviously, you know anytime, you know, I think there 519 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 8: were some some good moments in the run game today, 520 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 8: got ourselves behind the sticks a little bit in the 521 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 8: second half on some of some of the runs there. 522 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 8: So we'll look at everything right there. You know, we know, 523 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 8: we we know we have the guys up front to 524 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 8: be able to do that. Obviously, we gotta we gotta 525 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 8: do a good job putting them in positions to succeed. 526 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 8: And then we got to go execute. 527 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: Okay, I guess we had to cut off the word execute, 528 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: but that was a breach of etiquette, a breach of 529 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: etiquette there, the way the Eagles were playing. And so 530 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: the second part is, let's go to the Giants. We'll 531 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: go back to the Eagles. Let's go to the Giants 532 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: right now. So the question on the Giants the winning 533 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: locker room, which is not as good as story. The 534 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: winning locker room is just not it's just not as 535 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: good a story as the losing locker room. But we'll 536 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: go there now. So the question is a lot of 537 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: lot of pump pumping the tires on the this the 538 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: young players for the Giants, A lot of pumping the 539 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: tires on this is so it is the hype warranted 540 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: for Jackson Dart and Cam Skataboo, the quarterback running back combination. 541 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: It is already over the top. So I thought they 542 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: both looked good. I don't know how you couldn't make 543 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,959 Speaker 1: that statement that they both look good. But I would 544 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: pump the brakes on having a parade down the canyon 545 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: of heroes for Jackson Dart and Camscataboo based on social 546 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: media only. These guys have now squared the circle. They 547 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: have absolutely squared the circle. I guess we'll forget about 548 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: the fact that they gave a game away to the 549 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints a few days ago, but we'll just 550 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: come on. So it's great. It's one night, one night only, 551 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: that's it. And yeah, on this night, we do this. 552 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: We do the talk show daily and so right now, 553 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: you know each night and they were Cam Scataboo and 554 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart were smuckers, uncrustables, right, peanut butter and jelly, 555 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: perfectly packaged, sweet in the middle, snack sized football heroes 556 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: they were. However, to say that this is now going 557 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: to be a thing is a classic overreaction. Right, you 558 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: sentence yourself to prison, You're now in the jail set, 559 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: prisoner of the moment, and Jackson Dart was out there 560 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: looking like a shaw Day, a smooth operator, throwing the 561 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: ball around and fired up. And it's very weird to 562 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: see the Giants with someone playing quarterback that looks like 563 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: they know what they're doing. Haven't had that in a 564 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: long time. And then you've got Cam Skataboo, who we 565 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: saw in college, became a cold hero in his college 566 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: days briefly and wasn't drafted very high, and he ran 567 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: through the Eagles defense like it was a kid running 568 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: through sprinklers out on a park somewhere on a hot 569 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: summer afternoon. And yeah, that was fun. I'm not a 570 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: Giants fan, but for those of you that do partake 571 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: in the Giants, it was loud, it was great, a 572 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: little razzle dazzle. When's the last time they had razzle dazzle? 573 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: And it was probably already I know, is the peak 574 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: the right word? I don't know if peaks the right word, 575 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: but this was like a revival tan. 576 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 8: It was like a. 577 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: Religious experience for the Giant fans who've been in a 578 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: football coma, in a malaise for so many years here, 579 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: but I go back to the question is is this permanent? Well, no, 580 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: it's premature to say that. See the problem is I 581 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: actually kind of liked that these two guys. And what's 582 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: gonna happen is the New York overhype machine's gonna get 583 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: it craked up, and I'm gonna start hate both of them. 584 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: I know this always happens. Right now, it's fun to 585 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: watch camp scatterboo, bump heads and run through people and 586 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: not care about his long term health. And Jackson Dart 587 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,239 Speaker 1: looks really like an exciting young quarterback. And yet I 588 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: know I'm going to hate them because this is what 589 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,959 Speaker 1: always happens with New York athletes. You just get it 590 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: shoved down your throat and you begin to despise them. 591 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: At least I do. Maybe you don't, all right, final point, 592 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: So I'll go back to the Philadelphia side of things. 593 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: One of the storylines in this game, if you're watching 594 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: it in the second quarter, fans were spitting mad, spitting 595 00:33:55,120 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: mad neutral fans because the Philadelphia Eagles tush push took 596 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: over the game. So during the second quarter, Philadelphia was 597 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: in the red zone and they needed a couple more 598 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: yards to reach the end zone. So not only did 599 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: they attempt the touch push, but they did it four 600 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: times in a row. Touch push, touch push, touch bush, 601 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: touch bush touchy touchy touch. Hey, that's what they did, 602 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: and they did score. Jalen Hurts eventually scored. The reaction, though, 603 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: there was a visceral reaction to that second quarter stretch 604 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: where they ran the four touch pushes and the repetition 605 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: of it. People very upset, demanding it be outlawed, saying 606 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: that the replays yet again showed that there were Eagle 607 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: linemen who jumped off sides. It was not called. So 608 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: the question is do you feel the agony of the 609 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: fan calling out the tousch push saying it must be banned. 610 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: It must be banned after the Eagles ran it four 611 00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:00,720 Speaker 1: times their rapid fire in the second quarter. As American 612 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: idol judge back in the day, Randy Jackson would say, Yeah, 613 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a no for me. Dog, that's gonna 614 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: be an Now. The Eagles, I might be wrong with this. 615 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: I believe they lost the game, and I don't think 616 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: this is a crime against humanity that they continued to 617 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: run the touchbush right, that just calm down now. As 618 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: for the Pearl clutching, which is going on call the 619 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 1: fall start, call the penalty. Uh yeah, there were penalties, 620 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: they were not called. 621 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 7: Uh. 622 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: And and so you're you're saying letter of the law round. 623 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: I'm a spirit of the law guy, not letter of 624 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: the law guy. Every offensive lineman in the league twitches 625 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: a little bit before the snap, right. You only notice 626 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: it because you're like, well, it's the slow motion replay 627 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: on it. It's one of those things. You can call 628 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 1: a penalty on every play if you want, and all that. 629 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:57,720 Speaker 1: And if I was Nick Sirianni and I had this play, 630 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 1: I would never stop bringing. I would run it twenty 631 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: times a game. I'm shocked they don't run it more. 632 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: If it's fourth and one, tush push, third and inches, 633 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: tush push. If it's you're at a wedding and you're 634 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: walking someone down the aisle, tush push right down the aisle. Oh, 635 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 1: but it's ugly. It's not a football play. It's ugly. Okay, 636 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 1: football's not pretty anymore. See if Martha Stewart's still around, 637 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, track her down. She'll make it look better. 638 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: But it's not the Eagles job to make the game 639 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 1: pretty for you. It's not and the NFL could have 640 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: gotten rid of it, they didn't have enough votes, And 641 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: I'm okay with it. This is one of those things 642 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: that drives me nuts. I've gotten on my soapbox here 643 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,320 Speaker 1: at the bully pulpit and I've I've said, listen, in baseball, 644 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: they shouldn't have gotten rid of the shift. There's an 645 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: easy way to solve the shift. Just bunt use, you know, 646 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: choke up on the bat, hit the ball the other 647 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 1: way and the sh shift will go with But baseball, 648 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: of course, god forbid you. I'll make the players self regulate. 649 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: So they got rid of it, although it's still kind 650 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: of there. They just there's this imaginary line near second 651 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: base and then this is the same situation, right, it works. 652 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: If you want it banned, it's because you're just admitting 653 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: you're a loser and you can't beat It's just like, 654 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: stop whining. You don't even understand how bad it sounds. 655 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: You just sound weak. And you know the as far 656 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: as like the referees and all that, well, the NFL 657 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: referees have been incompetent my entire life. And the point 658 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 1: is either two things, stop the play or run the 659 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: play yourself. Just if you can't stop it. Why would 660 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: anyone else be able to stop it? It's it's the 661 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: job to score touchdowns. It's not to say, oh, we 662 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: got to score it, but we got to do a 663 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 1: certain way. No. Now, the other question I had quickly, 664 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: the other question, what does the toush push mean to 665 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts? Right watching him play in the second half, 666 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: that the ugly truth, the naked truth. And every time 667 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: I watch Jalen Hurts more and more I think the 668 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: same thing, and I get very I get very angry 669 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: people sending me messages, well, you don't know what you're 670 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: talking about. I don't understand why you keep saying that 671 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: you really don't know ball. And maybe I'm the only 672 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 1: one I could be the When I watch Jalen Hurts 673 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: play quarterback, I think this guy is a jag A 674 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 1: just a guy, not a Jacksonville jack just a guy, 675 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: right that if you take this play away and the 676 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: way things are going at some point here in the 677 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: next couple of years, the tush push will be be outlawed. 678 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: When I watch Jalen Hurts, though, it's like, if you 679 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: take that play away, it's the only thing that he 680 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: does at a super level. It would be like Tony 681 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: Stark having the Iron Man suit taken away from Without 682 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,479 Speaker 1: the suit, He's just a rich guy with some nice 683 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 1: facial hair. That's it, right, without the tush push. Jalen 684 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: Hurts into what Kyler Murray without the video game addiction. Right, 685 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray in a bad Thursday night game. He's not 686 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: flying around, He's grounded. It's it's Jalen Hurts is Kyler 687 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: Murray with better body language, without the toush push. Now 688 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 1: with it, you can win a super Bowl. They just did. 689 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: They're the reigning super Bowl champions. Congratulations. And in any 690 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 1: short yardage situation and it's it's amazing how many times 691 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: during the course of the game it ends up being 692 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: third down and one or fourth down and one. And 693 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: in those situations, it's an unstoppable super nova. Right, And 694 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: so if you take that away and you had to 695 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 1: do things the other way, how would that turn out? 696 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: Tumble down more times than that? 697 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller 698 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. 699 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: That was twelve that was clearly alive to the third. 700 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one big event gets grilled as. 701 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: Like an elementary school cope. 702 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 2: Ben. 703 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 9: Leading up to the Broncos game against the Jets in London, 704 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 9: Bo Knicks kind of pushed back on the idea that 705 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 9: it's a trap game and said trap games don't really exist. 706 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 9: He said, I think in the league, quite honestly, it's 707 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 9: a little dispectful, disrespectful to consider anybody a trap team. 708 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 9: They're an NFL team, They're gonna have some really good players. 709 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 9: It's not a trap game, Ben, do you agree with him? 710 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 2: Now? 711 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: Bo Knicks is a dope. I've been handicapping NFL games 712 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 1: and even before I started listening to people that are 713 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: older than me. This is a thing. It is absolutely 714 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,240 Speaker 1: a thing. Historically, if you look at the gambling trends, 715 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: it happens. Teams underperform after a big win when they're 716 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: playing a suck bag team. It happens next. 717 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 9: There are some of the NFL community that believe Panthers 718 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 9: coach Dave Canalis could bench Bryce Young for Andy Dalton 719 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 9: again sooner rather than later. Ben, do you think Young 720 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 9: gets bench the season? 721 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: Bryce Young? Two things are true. Bryce Young sucks and 722 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,479 Speaker 1: he will not be benched because if he gets benched, 723 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: Dave Canals is out next. 724 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 9: Steelers are linked to upgrades at wide receivers. Some of 725 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 9: the names are Jalen Waddle and Jacobe Myers. Do you 726 00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 9: think they could make a move for one of these guys? 727 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, Jacoby Myers, although I knowing the Steelers will 728 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: probably just like signed Odell Beckham because he's friends with 729 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers.
