1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 2: Hope you had a great weekend. 4 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 3: Everybody ready to go on this Monday, as we always do, 5 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 3: best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that 6 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 3: you liked you didn't like? Football tonight National title game 7 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 3: Miami against Indiana, Indiana favored by seven and a half. 8 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: Good morning. 9 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 3: If you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, or listening 10 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 3: on our great radio affiliates around the country eight seven 11 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 3: to seven three DP, show operator Tyler sitting by. He'll 12 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 3: take your phone calls. Two weeks from today. Will be 13 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 3: in San Francisco for the Big Game, as they like 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 3: to say it, and we're down to our final four. 15 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 3: After the game's over the weekend. The Broncos over the 16 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 3: Bills in overtime, but bo Nix is out. He won't 17 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 3: be playing the Seahawks, Barry the forty nine Ers, the 18 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 3: Texans over the Patriots over the Texans, and the Rams 19 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: over the Bears in overtime. So you got some interesting 20 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: scenarios here. Look at the Broncos and the Patriots. If 21 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 3: bo Nix was playing this, according to DraftKings, you would 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 3: probably have the Broncos favored by one. The Patriots are 23 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 3: favored by five and a half in Denver. The Rams 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 3: are getting two and a half at Seattle. All right, 25 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 3: we'll come up with the pole question, play of the day, 26 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 3: stat of the day, all of that forthcoming, best and 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: worst of the weekend as well. You start to look 28 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 3: at these games, and if I look at San Francisco, 29 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 3: let's look at the teams that lost, because we'll have 30 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: plenty of time to talk about the teams that advance. 31 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 3: If I look at the teams that lost over the weekend, 32 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers, what kind of situation are they 33 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 3: in now? The Bears, what kind of situation are they 34 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 3: in now? The Texans? What kind of situation are they 35 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 3: in now? And you could probably start to rank these 36 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 3: and go, all right, I get a good idea with 37 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: that team moving forward. Like the Niners, your window of opportunity, 38 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: in my opinion, is closed because you know, a year older, 39 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: with a lot of those players injuries, and you know, 40 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: I got George Kittle coming back from a serious injury, 41 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 3: Bosa and Warner. Warner might have been able to play 42 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl. I don't have the luxury of 43 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: you know, high ticket items, big ticket items for brock Purty. 44 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 3: I really have to bank on brock Purty being a 45 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: great quarterback. So I and you're in that NFC West, 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: and you know you're looking at Seattle and you're looking 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: at the Rams. 48 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: Now grant the Rams. How long is. 49 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford going to play Seattle. That's a young team. 50 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 3: And yes it does come down to Sam Darnold. But 51 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 3: if I look at those teams that lost, I would 52 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: say the Niners. I don't look at them coming back 53 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: in this situation again anytime soon. 54 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: The Bills. 55 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 3: Just feels like every year it's a different excuse. But 56 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 3: this year it's about Josh Allen. Josh Allen does make 57 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 3: mistakes in the postseason, but he did, he did, and 58 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 3: he's the reason, one of the biggest reasons why they lost. 59 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 3: I know that we love to play the sympathy card 60 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 3: with Buffalo. I know it, they'd been so through so 61 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 3: much hardship, But this was about Josh Allen. He was 62 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: careless with the football. Josh Allen had four giveaways, two 63 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: picks and two lost fumbles. Now he had zero giveaways 64 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: in his previous six playoff games, and a total of 65 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: six in fourteen career playoff games. So was it an anomaly? Yes, 66 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: it was, doesn't matter, it still counts. Do you look 67 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 3: at Buffalo moving forward. There's so much chatter about Sean McDermott. 68 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 3: Was he going to keep his job? Will he keep 69 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 3: his job? I didn't think that that was a great 70 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 3: Buffalo team. I didn't think it was a very good 71 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: Buffalo team. I thought they were a good team. I 72 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: thought that they could run the football. You sprinkle in 73 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 3: Josh Allen and you got enough to get by in 74 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 3: a playoff scenario where he didn't have the usuals in there. 75 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: And yes, this was supposed to be his year. It 76 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: didn't matter if Mahomes is not in, or Burrow's not in, 77 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 3: or Lamar Jackson, these other teams are better than Buffalo. 78 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 3: New England is better than Buffalo. Denver is better than Buffalo. 79 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: They don't they are. 80 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 4: Not. 81 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 3: Doesn't mean Buffalo couldn't win. But Josh Allen had a 82 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 3: terrible game at a terrible time, and he spoke about 83 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 3: it after the game. 84 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 5: That's extremely difficult. I feel like I yeah, I feel 85 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 5: like I let my teammates down tonight. It's my long season. 86 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: I hate it ended. 87 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 5: And that's uh. That's gonna stick with me for a 88 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 5: long time. 89 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's tough to listen to. But got 90 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 3: to blame himself, which he did, and he was just careless, 91 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: you know, the one fumbled before the end the first half, 92 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 3: and I thought, oh my goodness, those three points could 93 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 3: be the difference. Hello, small things coming up, you know, 94 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 3: big and big moments there. And now you have Denver 95 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: without bo Nix, and you got Jared Stidham who was 96 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: going to be the starting quarterback against the New England 97 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: Patriots c J. Stroud, who I think he cost himself 98 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,559 Speaker 3: millions and millions of dollars these last two games because 99 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 3: there is no way I'm going to extend him. 100 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 6: I don't. 101 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 3: I don't want to make the mistake the Dolphins did 102 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 3: with Tua. You got to show Kyler Murray. You got 103 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 3: to show me again next year. And even then I'd 104 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 3: be a little apprehensive because something was going on. Body 105 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: language was terrible, and I know the conditions weren't great. 106 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: I understand that, but they weren't great for you know, 107 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 3: I will say Drake may didn't play that well either, 108 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 3: but there were throws where You're just going, what is 109 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: going on here? 110 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: So much? 111 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 3: So here is Troy Aikman, who was calling the game 112 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 3: talking about c J. 113 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: Stroud. 114 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 7: I will say this, Joe, Jamiico, Ryans and Pick Casario, 115 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 7: they've got some tough decisions they've got to make about 116 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 7: this team on the offensive side of the ball. You know, 117 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 7: they replaced Bobby Slowick last year after his two years 118 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 7: as the offensive coordinator. 119 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 6: C J. 120 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 7: Stroud has been chasing his rookie success for the last 121 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 7: two years. He's not been the same player. We've not 122 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 7: seen the development from him. 123 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: There's a reason for that, and it has to be addressed. 124 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 3: Patriots and Texans combined for eight turnovers. The last time 125 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 3: you had that two thousand and one, the Rams against 126 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 3: the Packers. That's when Brett Fahr through six interceptions, Kurt 127 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 3: Warner had an interception, they had to fumble a couple 128 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 3: of fumbles by the Green Bay Packers. So sloppy football there. 129 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 3: If you have average quarterback play, we have the Texans 130 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 3: playing against the Broncos with a real possibility of going 131 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 3: to the Super Bowl, just average quarterback play. I thought 132 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 3: they were going to bring in Davis Mills. I thought, 133 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 3: maybe just give the offense a little jolt of something 134 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: there because I mean, you weren't out of it when 135 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: you're down five and I'm thinking, oh my goodness, you 136 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 3: got all these turnovers. You're at home and you can't 137 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 3: put them away, and then they finally did. But you're 138 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 3: watching that game and you're just going, man, something's up here. 139 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 3: And then you could just see C. J. Stroud just 140 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 3: kind of look like, I don't know, I don't know. 141 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 3: And New England give them credit. You know, Drake May 142 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 3: hasn't looked great, but they played just good enough to win. 143 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 3: That's all you need to do now, no style points whatsoever. 144 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 3: Seattle did whatever they wanted to do, a very impressive performance. 145 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: You know, when you get that kickoff return, if you're 146 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 3: a Niner fan, Marvin and you're sitting there and you go, 147 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 3: all right, okay, here we go, Here we go. I 148 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 3: got everything, got snacks, got my drink here, wife and 149 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 3: kid are over here, got my Niner gear on. And 150 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden, it's a fourteen forty five 151 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 3: to go in the first quarter and you're down seven. 152 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 8: Yes, Marvin, And what made it worse is the forty 153 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 8: nine didn't have any room for error, and so that 154 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 8: first kickoff, all right, come on, come on, Bang Bang 155 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 8: niner gang, let's go, And then they start doing that. 156 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 8: My wife just looks at my son like, sh don't 157 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 8: say anything to daddy for about two more hours. 158 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 9: Yes, Paul Marvin's in charge of the sound on the 159 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 9: Dan Patrick Show. I noticed the kickoff return is not 160 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 9: on the sound sheet. 161 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America. 162 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: The official trading cards of the program got a play 163 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 3: of the day.

Also, I mentioned this a 174 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 3: couple of times last week that whatever job John Harbaugh 175 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 3: didn't take, Kevin Stefanski was going to take and it 176 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 3: turned out to be the case. Harball goes to the Giants, 177 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: Kevin Stefanski goes to the Atlanta Falcons. But we'll talk 178 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 3: to Albert Breer on the openings that are still available. 179 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 3: And I wonder if anything happens in Buffalo, because you 180 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 3: might look at this and go, Okay, nine years, that's 181 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 3: an eternity. You got a great quarterback, you were close 182 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: to advancing again, and you've seen some of these other 183 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: coaches either step down or get fired. Now, granted, it's 184 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 3: kind of like John Harbaugh with Lamar Jackson, didn't do 185 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 3: much with Lamar Jackson. Josh Allen has been a great 186 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 3: playoff performer, but you haven't gotten over the hump. And 187 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 3: this was going to be the year. At least a 188 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: lot of people thought that. All right, we'll get to 189 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 3: your phone calls coming up. See what's poll question for 190 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 3: the first hour of the program. 191 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 10: Got one here from Paul and I'm going to read 192 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 10: it with no punctuation because I think it sounds funny. 193 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 10: Losing team from this weekend that has the most biggest 194 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 10: issues issue. Okay, Bill's Bears, forty nine ers Texans. They 195 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 10: each have sort of different issues. Feels like, Yeah, if 196 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 10: I'm the Bears, I feel pretty good. Yeah, the Bears 197 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 10: actually don't have any issues. Really, I don't think they shouldn't. 198 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 10: You went tot too, could have won the game. You 199 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 10: had some moments there. Caleb Williams can be spectacular. He 200 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 10: has as many splash plays as any other quarterback, probably 201 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 10: more so. 202 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 3: It's just the other ones, you know. And you know, 203 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 3: year one with that system with Ben Johnson Bears, I 204 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 3: thought they were a playoff team. I didn't know they 205 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: would go this far. But give them credit. They look 206 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 3: like they're lined up ready to go and will be 207 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: the team to beat in that division next year. 208 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 209 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I was really impressed with the Bears, 210 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 10: you know. I mean when I'm thinking about what issues 211 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 10: to fix, I'm not exactly sure where I'm not. Granted 212 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 10: I haven't watched them as much as like say Paul 213 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 10: has or whatever, but I'm not exactly sure where I 214 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 10: put my finger on. This is what we need to 215 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 10: address most in the offseason. 216 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 3: Well, I thought the defense played pretty well, but I 217 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 3: would still say they need probably a little more, maybe 218 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: a playmaker or two on defense. The Rams didn't play 219 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: great even Matthew Stafford. He talked about the defense really 220 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 3: won this game for US. I mean, Puka Nakua wasn't 221 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 3: really a factor until he was a factor there at. 222 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 2: The very end. 223 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 3: So you're kind of going, all right, you know, Davante 224 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 3: Adams not much until you needed him. You run the 225 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: football a little bit. But you know, this goes back 226 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 3: to what I keep saying. 227 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: You just survive, that's all. Now you can. 228 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 3: Survive and go man, I don't know, like there are 229 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 3: times when you could see somebody advancing, like Drake May's 230 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 3: got to play better. So yes, you win, you don't 231 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 3: get style points, and now you move on. But that 232 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 3: would concern me a little bit. Is is the moment 233 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 3: a little too big for Drake May? 234 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 2: Or was it? 235 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 3: And you're going against a great defense there seemed like 236 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: the moment was too big for CJ. Stroud, Like I 237 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 3: kept going, dude, what are you doing? You're making this 238 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 3: tougher than it needs to be. And he could have 239 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 3: thrown two or three more interceptions. I mean, the Patriots 240 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 3: had the opportunity for two or three more interceptions there, 241 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 3: and this on the heels of a terrible performance in 242 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 3: the previous game. Texan's got a big question there. That 243 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: defense is young, well, Danielle Hunter has been around, but 244 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 3: that it's a good it's a good, solid team now 245 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: not having Nico Collins. Marks got banged up a little bit, 246 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,119 Speaker 3: but he got a great coach, you know, and Jacksonville 247 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 3: may be here to stay. So you you know, your 248 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 3: margin for error there is not as wide as it 249 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 3: once was or once thought of. 250 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 10: Yeah, seton, Yeah, I feel like Drake May's problems are 251 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 10: being overshadowed because they keep winning and uh, you know CJ. 252 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 10: Stroud had such a terrible game. But you know, Drake 253 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 10: May has seven or eight turnovers in the last six quarters. Yeah, fumbles, 254 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 10: you know, and a couple of interceptions too. That's that's 255 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 10: not great play out of him. 256 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 3: And this time of the year, those things get magnified 257 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 3: because we spend more time on these games because everybody, 258 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 3: you know, there's only a couple of games being played. 259 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 3: If this was a regular season game between the Patriots 260 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: and the Texans, then we probably don't focus on it 261 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: and be like, all right, Patriots wanted home. But you know, 262 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 3: when everybody has a referendum on these games, everybody has 263 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: an opinion, then at all of a sudden metastasizes yes. 264 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 10: And he you know, the turnovers in a weird way. 265 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: It's funny. 266 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 4: CJ. 267 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 10: Stroud's performance overshadowed Drake May's bad performance, and Drake May's 268 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 10: turnovers overshadow all the throws that he just missed or 269 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 10: just didn't make. 270 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 3: Best Super Bowl odds the Seahawks are plus one forty five, 271 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 3: the Rams plus two to twenty five, and then the 272 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 3: Patriots at plus two fifty five the Broncos at plus 273 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 3: eleven hundred. But congratulations, Todd, you got to the AFC 274 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: title game. 275 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 11: Yes, is the mystery and question mark that his jards 276 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 11: did and can that somehow be turned into a positive 277 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 11: in some way? They have all the video of Bonnicks 278 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 11: and then what he can do. I'm as big a 279 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 11: fan as there is. I don't know what we're getting 280 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 11: with Stidham is going to be a game manager? 281 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 2: Supposely Champe is. 282 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 11: Not going to make major change to the offense. Does 283 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 11: Denver defense have to do all the work to win 284 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 11: the game. 285 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: I have no idea what to expect. Well, these are 286 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: all questions you're asking yourself. Not maybe I'm just. 287 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 12: Throwing it out there. 288 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: Definitely asking myselfing, I don't know if the Patriots go, oh. 289 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 3: My god, and yeah, we've seen backup quarterbacks, you know, 290 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 3: is this the Nick Foles moment? Well, Nick Foles had 291 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 3: a Pro Bowl season. He was unbelievable with Chip Kelly, 292 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 3: so we knew that he could play at a higher level. 293 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 3: Jerry Stidham, he hadn't thrown a pass in two years 294 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 3: in a game. 295 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 9: Yes, boy, Yeah, there's not a lot of tape on 296 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 9: Jared Stidham. He's been in the league for seven years now. 297 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 9: Four starts, one in three, sixty percent passer, eight touchdowns, 298 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 9: eight picks, just the kind of benign numbers where you 299 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 9: can't make a decision of what you think of him. 300 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 2: Yes, I think he took. 301 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 11: One knee earlier this season, so we know he can. 302 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 2: You just let the clock look, okay, he did even 303 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 2: fumble as far as the fair enough. 304 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 3: All right, he's played one play and he took a knee. 305 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 3: Confidence is running high there. He's ready for victory formation. 306 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: You can do the knee. 307 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: There's no fast start. 308 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 11: He's ready to flip it to the RAFPI and celebrate. 309 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: So let's go. 310 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 3: All right, we'll get to your phone calls coming up. 311 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 3: We have the national title game coming up.

You know, we talk about coaches sometimes 340 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 3: coaching for their jobs, and it felt like that, It 341 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 3: felt like that last year was Sean McDermott and this 342 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 3: is where it's nine years and you go, is that 343 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 3: the gun? Like how many guys can get you over 344 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 3: the top? Andy Reid for a long time in Philadelphia. 345 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: May he can get you there. He can't get you 346 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 3: over the top until he got to Kansas City and 347 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 3: then he could put you over the top. But there 348 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 3: are certain coaches that I think we give far more 349 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 3: credit to, like Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh could be 350 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame coaches, could be Can they get you 351 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 3: over the top? Are they just really really good regular 352 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 3: season head coaches? Because it's a different DNA when you 353 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 3: get to the postseason, like what do you got? 354 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: Who are you? What are you going to do? 355 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,239 Speaker 3: Clock management, how you get your team ready? Like just 356 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 3: so many things that stuff that maybe is not tangible 357 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 3: where you think, but you have a team that goes 358 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 3: out there and wins when maybe they're not supposed to win, 359 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 3: or holds on comes up with a play when they 360 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 3: need to, and Buffalo never did that. And when you 361 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 3: think about this, the New York Jets have been in 362 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 3: more AFC title games than the Buffalo Bills have in 363 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 3: the last thirty years. Brought to you by Panadian America, 364 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 3: the Official Trading Cards of the Dan Patrick Show. I 365 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 3: always think about this, like John Harball, if you make 366 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 3: the kick and you go into the postseason, does he 367 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 3: still get fired? And I think if they didn't get 368 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 3: to the title game, he was going to get fired. 369 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 3: Now I don't have any information on that. That was 370 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 3: just a gut feeling that I had. Did the Bills 371 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 3: make their mind up about Sean McDermott now or last week? 372 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 3: Did it matter what was going to happen? What if 373 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 3: they won the game, then you go to the AFC 374 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 3: Title Game? But if you go to the Super Bowl, 375 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 3: so you're coaching for your job and Sean McDermott paid 376 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 3: the price. 377 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 2: Years. 378 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 3: We'll talk to Steve Tasker, the Buffalo Bill's announcer. He'll 379 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 3: join us coming up in an hour from now. Albert Breer, 380 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 3: the Monday Morning quarterback following all the movers and shakers, 381 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 3: And I did get information on this from somebody who 382 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 3: said there is probably at least one coach who is 383 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 3: coaching for his job in the postseason. That we were 384 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: talking about all the vacancies there, and I wondered, you know, 385 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: if if Matt Lafleur is not re signed extended in 386 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 3: Green Bay, Woul John Harbaught have taken that job. If 387 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur doesn't stay in Green Bay, does he go 388 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh? Is Mike McCarthy in the mix in Pittsburgh 389 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 3: a Pittsburgh guy? What if Buffalo opens up because you 390 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 3: got Josh Allen there? When you think about Lamar Jackson, 391 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 3: two time MVP, Josh Allen the reigning MVP, and they 392 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 3: will have new head coaches next year. Robert Salah is 393 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 3: gonna maybe get a run in Baltimore here, the deub 394 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 3: coordinator for the forty nine ers, might be coming back 395 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 3: to be a head coach. And once again there's a 396 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 3: lot of talk, there's so many openings, who's going where, 397 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 3: And then it feels like there's a domino effect happening. 398 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: You know, when Baltimore and now Buffalo is open, you 399 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 3: know Stefanski's going to Atlanta hardball with the Giants. So 400 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 3: there's a lot going on. And this is the NFL. 401 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 3: But did anybody know think that Buffalo was going to 402 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 3: come open? Now I know what people are going to say, 403 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 3: what about Mike Tomlin. I can only tell you what 404 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 3: I was told last week that Mike there is no 405 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 3: guarantee he comes back to coaching, and there's no guarantee 406 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 3: he does TV. But there's a two year window here 407 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 3: he doesn't. If he goes someplace, then you have to 408 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 3: give a compensation to the Steelers. And you know he 409 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 3: knows that, so does the team that would sign him, 410 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 3: and so did the Steelers. But I don't see mikelink 411 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 3: coaching again anytime soon, unless the person who told me 412 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 3: this is off on it. I did get some information 413 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 3: on college football, so keep this in mind. Friday, it'll 414 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 3: be voted on if the college football playoffs will expand. 415 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: So they had a meeting in Miami last week, and 416 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 3: what they're trying to do is figure out are we 417 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 3: going from twelve to sixteen or are we going from 418 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 3: twelve to twenty four. The Big Ten wants a three 419 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 3: year commitment. The Big Ten wants to have sixteen, sixteen, sixteen, 420 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 3: and then a commitment to go to twenty four beginning 421 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 3: with the twenty twenty nine season. So once again, the 422 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 3: Big Ten wants a three year commitment from everybody that 423 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 3: would go from twelve to sixteen and then a firm 424 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 3: commitment to go to twenty four teams beginning with the 425 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 3: twenty twenty nine season. 426 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 2: Let's see what else do I have. 427 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: So this was the College Football Playoff Management Committee. So 428 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 3: that's ten commissioners and Notre Dame's athletic director and they 429 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,479 Speaker 3: have to decide by this Friday. If they don't decide 430 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 3: by this Friday, from when I'm told, the college football 431 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 3: playoffs will stay at twelve teams, a lot going on, 432 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 3: a lot going on, and then you got the national 433 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,360 Speaker 3: title game tonight, it's actually two underdogs. When you think 434 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 3: about Miami squeaking in, or at least we were given 435 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 3: the impression Miami squeaked into the postseason, it's either Notre 436 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 3: Dame or Miami, and then here's Miami playing for the 437 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 3: national championship. Now, if you go back twenty five years ago, 438 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 3: the you they were like UNLV in the nineties in basketball, 439 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: like you had to deal with them, and they were 440 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 3: usually on the winning side of those things. Now in 441 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 3: the ACC and we're like, oh, Miami, kind of a 442 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 3: nice story, and then all of a sudden, Miami's playing 443 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 3: for a national championship. But there is no bigger Cinderella 444 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 3: story than Indiana football because now they're the favorite now, 445 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 3: but historically they're an underdog. Miami historically is a favorite. 446 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 3: Now they're an underdog in this game coming up tonight, 447 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 3: and I think Indiana is now favored by eight and 448 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 3: a half Miami playing at home. But this feels like 449 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: it's almost We would have been surprised if Indiana played 450 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 3: for the national title. Now will be surprised if Indiana 451 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 3: doesn't win the national title. 452 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 9: Yes, Paul, it's been nine and ten days since the 453 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 9: last college football playoff game. It feels a lot longer. 454 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, when you said it, when you go, do 455 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 3: you know when you know they had a playoff game? 456 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 3: I go, I have no idea. I thought two weeks 457 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 3: ago it just felt like, but this is what they 458 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 3: want to start the season earlier so they can end 459 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 3: right around New Year's Now they're starting in August already, 460 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 3: But it feels like they want to start a little earlier. 461 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 3: Now you have the President coming out and saying, hey, 462 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: that second Saturday in December, that's Army Navy, and I'm 463 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 3: not going to sign anything. You know, I'm going to 464 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 3: make sure that I hold up the college football playoffs. 465 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 3: I don't have the exact language of that. The President's decision. 466 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 3: Army Navy gets its time slot, and as my source said, hey, 467 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 3: it's great for Army Navy, and it's great for the 468 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 3: NFL because the NFL will dominate that weekend. They don't 469 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 3: have to deal with any playoff games. But that's what 470 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,959 Speaker 3: college football is trying to do. I'm trying to come 471 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 3: up with a solution for next year. But Indiana football 472 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 3: tonight favored by eight and a half. And it probably 473 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 3: comes down to, you know what normal games come down to, 474 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 3: who makes the mistake and when do you make that mistake? 475 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 3: Who do you trust more? Carson Becker, Fernando Mendoza, How 476 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 3: much pressure does Miami put on Indiana? Can Indiana do 477 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 3: what it did to these other schools and dominate the 478 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: line of scrimmage? So just some of the questions. But 479 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 3: I feel bad that it's kind of like, oh, by 480 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 3: the way, there's a national title game coming up, and 481 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 3: if you're watching like the Mothership, you know there's this conundrum. 482 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 2: Hey, we are all in on the. 483 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 3: NFL, but hey, how about that national title game coming 484 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 3: up tonight? They're sort of half in, half out. It's 485 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 3: like a national title game. All right, we mentioned it. Hey, 486 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 3: let's go back to the Bears. Finish there, Yes, Todd. 487 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 11: It's pretty funny that Miami's playing on their home field 488 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 11: at hard Rock, yet they're the designated A visiting team. 489 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 11: They have to stand on the other sideline, and I 490 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 11: think use the visiting locker room facilities, which is wild. 491 00:26:55,880 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 3: Didn't they crazy? Crazy? All right, let's get some phone 492 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 3: calls in here. Best and worst of the weekend, Chris 493 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 3: and Syracuse. Once again, the Buffalo Bills have fired Sean McDermott. 494 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 14: Hey, Chris, Hey, Thanks Dan, Hey got a best and 495 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 14: worst in a comment? My comment is, and I hope 496 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 14: I'm wrong, but I think Miami wins tonight. Indiana has 497 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 14: been beating teams all year that had more talent, speed, size, strength, 498 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 14: and I think it finally catches up to him. And 499 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,719 Speaker 14: my worst, the Bear's passing up on field goals and 500 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 14: going forward on fourth downs. Now in the NFL, kicking 501 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 14: the field goal is not looked at its getting three points. 502 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 14: It's looked at its losing four. It's crazy, and especially 503 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 14: in the playoffs where weather factors in more and squaring 504 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 14: opportunities are at a premium. Yet take the points. Just 505 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 14: like Bill Kawer said on The Dan Patrick Show last 506 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 14: week and a bittersweet best Todd fritzus Broncos. Maybe it 507 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 14: will be like when Carson Wentz went down. If Doug 508 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 14: Peterson can pull that off, certainly Sean Payton is capable. 509 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 14: And here in Central New York, all the Bill fans 510 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 14: have been saying is this is the year no Burrow, 511 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 14: no Lamar, Noble homes. But in typical Buffalo Bill fashion, 512 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 14: they still managed to find a way to get mixed. 513 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 2: Thank god, Chris. 514 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 3: The Bears went three for nine on fourth downs in 515 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 3: the postseason. I just believe in getting points because okay, 516 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 3: we have a chance to get seven or we don't 517 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: get anything. I just don't like that risk reward. I 518 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 3: saw that with Detroit a couple of years ago, and 519 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 3: it feels like it's a regular season thing, like, Okay, 520 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 3: let's go after this, Let's have some fun. We got 521 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 3: a play called for this. In these big moments, it 522 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 3: just feels like fourth and four that seems like an 523 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 3: eternity and you got a factor in the weather. You 524 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: got to factor in what's at stake. I just I know, 525 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 3: three feels like you failed. 526 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, Pauline, I wonder if Ben Johnson and the coaching 527 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 9: staff didn't have a ton of faith in the defense 528 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 9: after what happened to Jordan Love, and they thought we 529 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 9: got to match sevens with Matthew Stafford, and they didn't 530 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 9: think that their defense would be able to slow them 531 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 9: down as they did. 532 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 2: Chicago's defense held him in check. 533 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 3: Man. I mean, that's a good enough performance by your 534 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 3: defense to win most playoff games. And the Rams didn't 535 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 3: play great, but you know, I got to give the 536 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 3: Bears credit. They played well. Jeremy and Wisconsin and the 537 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 3: play by Caleb Williams, I mean, that's fourth quarter. Hey, 538 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 3: he's a different kind of guy. He's a different dude, Hey, Jeremy. 539 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 12: Hey, greetings, greetings VP from the frozen tundra, where Packer 540 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 12: fans will attest to the fact that field goal always 541 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 12: guaranteed either. But I have a best and worth and 542 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,959 Speaker 12: a quick comment. Best of the weekend. Sorry, PAULI always 543 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 12: great to see the Bears lose. Would have been a 544 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 12: real kick to the groin seeing Johnson and Caleb Williams 545 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 12: get to the NFC Championship before Love and La floor. 546 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 12: But the worst is the girlfriend's on a cruise and 547 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 12: I'm here a negative thirty win shill. That's not fun either. 548 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 12: But I think Caleb Williams will be really good. He 549 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 12: does make a couple of those decisions like Tutler always did, 550 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 12: where he'll give you two to three interception opportunities. But 551 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 12: I think that's going to be a really great rivalry 552 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 12: moving forward. So all the US who spent a long 553 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 12: time guys, hope you're doing well. 554 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Packers extended Matt Lafleur, and you know, there's 555 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 3: a going rate for quarterbacks. It feels like there's now 556 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 3: a going rate for head coaches. I Key went from 557 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 3: almost five million and he went to what thirteen fourteen 558 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 3: million dollars a year. Quarterbacks are slotted like you're gonna 559 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 3: make this and then you're gonna make that. Now it 560 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 3: feels like if you're you know, head coach is good. 561 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 3: He's making close to fifteen million dollars. Andy Reid making 562 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 3: twenty million plus, it had to be difficult to extend. 563 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur had that conversation after a bad loss, because 564 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 3: at halftime he could have renegotiated and got whatever he wanted. 565 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 3: The problem was the second half against the Bears. 566 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 8: Yes, Marvin, not even a bad loss, a bad month, 567 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 8: lost the last five games. 568 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 2: Yep, Buddha in San Francisco. 569 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 4: Hi Buddha, oh Man, thanks for taking my call. DP 570 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 4: Saluti forty shout out to James. Happy Monday boys. Well DP, 571 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 4: all good things come doing that, my man. I mean 572 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 4: I was not surprised by my Niners getting molly wopped 573 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 4: on Saturday. I mean, we over atchieve this year and 574 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 4: as Trent Williams said himself with the podium, Dan, we 575 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 4: talked about this last week. We were playing with house money. 576 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 4: That's of the weekend DP, watching Caleb Williams turning into 577 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 4: a franchise QV right before our eyes. 578 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 6: Man. 579 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 4: I mean he brought them back in the fourth quarter 580 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 4: and had that ridiculous heroic throw twenty yards behind the 581 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 4: line of scrimmage. I mean I thought he was throwing 582 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 4: it out of bounds, and I mean it was just ridiculous, 583 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 4: and more so Dan, there's a certain decorum that, like 584 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 4: a franchise quarterback will follow and take I mean, you 585 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 4: take your lumps, you know, with the losses, you stand 586 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 4: the podium. He answered the hard questions and that's that's 587 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 4: what he did yesterday. I was very impressed and Pauly 588 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 4: should be pumped. 589 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 12: And worst of the. 590 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 4: Weekend obviously my Niners DP. But honestly, watching CJ stroud 591 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 4: struggle yesterday was like, as my big Mama says, that's embarrassed. 592 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 4: I mean it was cringe worthy. And Dan thinking about 593 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 4: CJ consoling Caleb Williams Midfield a couple of years ago 594 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 4: after the game. That's not aging very well. 595 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 2: Up.

Now the Texans actually have that 649 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 10: followed by the forty nine ers. The Texans haven't even 650 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 10: made it back to Houston. They've had some travel issues 651 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 10: leaving New England. Tracy Wolfson did a great job CBS 652 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 10: sideline reporter. She did an interview with bo Nix, and 653 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 10: prior to actually going live on TV. You know, you'll 654 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 10: chat with the person you're talking to, and she was 655 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 10: trying to figure out bo Nix wasn't excited, and she 656 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 10: even asked him about that. She could see that there 657 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 10: was something wrong. She sends that I think where it 658 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 10: just didn't feel right, and she said, you know, basically, 659 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 10: you're not excited, and he just talked about, you know, 660 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 10: the tension of the game. 661 00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 2: But you can see. 662 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 3: There's a picture that they're talking and you know, bo 663 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 3: Nix looks like he is. It's one of those where 664 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 3: you're really excited, but then you can't be too excited 665 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 3: because you're not going to be playing. And he's leaning 666 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 3: he's leaning off of that broken ankle, a broken bone 667 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 3: in his ankle. But Tracy did a great job. And 668 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 3: when you get into those scrums afterwards, now, granted, they're 669 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 3: going to take the best player and bring him over 670 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 3: to you know, the sideline reporter of the network who's broadcasting, 671 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 3: but still. 672 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 2: There's a lot going on. 673 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 3: There's a lot of moving parts, and guys are gonna 674 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 3: shake hands and greet and they might say prayer after 675 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 3: and you know, your sideline reporter. You're just trying to 676 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 3: grab somebody like, who are you gonna get me? And 677 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 3: then the Broncos pr will bring over bow Nicks. But 678 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 3: still you got to be ready to go. You probably 679 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 3: get three questions at the most and in that moment, 680 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 3: and there's chaos around you. You know, it's not like 681 00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 3: everybody is quiet like Tracy's asking questions. It's you know, 682 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 3: guys who were sad. You know, the Buffalo Bills. You 683 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 3: got guys who are excited you're going to the AFC 684 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 3: title Game. But she did a great job. Lucas in Texas, Hi, Luke, 685 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 3: what's on your mind? Hey Dan, good morning, good morning. 686 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 3: You know, no real best, only a worst. I'll frame 687 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 3: it this way. I've got two things for you. Our 688 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 3: best friends live in North Carolina and they are a 689 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 3: huge Buffalo Bills fans. So we were kind of joking 690 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 3: with each other, how funny would it be to see 691 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 3: our teams in the AFC Championship Game only to see 692 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 3: our teams combined for a season's worth of turnovers in 693 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 3: our two games. 694 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 15: So it was a rough weekend overall. And here's what's 695 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 15: most frustrating about it. I would actually say and we 696 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 15: were talking to our Bills, fans, our friends. The most 697 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 15: frustrating part wasn't the turnovers. It was the misthrow that 698 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 15: Josh Allen had Dawson Knox just short of the end 699 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:57,720 Speaker 15: zone that could have won the games. 700 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 3: That's the ball game. If he completes that, that's the 701 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 3: ball game. Yeah, thank you, Lucas. So Tracy sent out 702 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 3: this picture. She said, you can see that Bownick's not 703 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 3: putting weight on his right ankle. I asked him before 704 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 3: the interview view if his knee was okay, thinking that 705 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 3: was the injury. He said he was okay. Then I 706 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 3: asked him why he wasn't smiling after the win. He 707 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 3: said it was a stressful game. Yeah, you can see 708 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 3: the picture, not putting any weight on that ankle. Monica 709 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 3: in Raleigh, Hi Monica, what's on your mind today? 710 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 4: Hey? 711 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 6: Hey Dan, Dannetts and backroom guys at third time, long time. 712 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 6: I have my best similars to the weekend.
