I didn't know which game to go 28 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: back and forth. I mean, these games are tremendous. And 29 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 2: now we have the conference championship weekend all set. Now 30 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: Alabama's going to go with Georgia in the college football 31 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: playoff spot line on the line. There Oregon Washington they 32 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: got to play in next week. Texas is going to 33 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: play Oklahoma State, Florida State's going against Louisville, and Michigan's 34 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: going to go against Iowan. I think that's going to 35 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 2: be the one game that's going to be lopsided. Michigan's 36 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: gonna take him pretty good. And I said, coming in here, Bucket, 37 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: I know you watched these games yesterday. It was a 38 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: lose lose And what do I mean by that? Ohio 39 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 2: State wins the game yesterday and it was a tremendous 40 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 2: game thirty twenty four. But I think there's going to 41 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: be some fallout on this game, saying, well, the alleged cheating. 42 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 2: You know, I don't think that Ohio State and or 43 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: Michigan is going to complain or talk about it. But 44 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: I do believe that there's going to be some undercurrent 45 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 2: in the fact that didn't make a difference if Michigan 46 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: won or lost. 47 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: They couldn't win this one, you know. 48 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 2: And they won yesterday, and someone's going to come out 49 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: and say, well, they won because the cheating aspect, What 50 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: do you have to say about that? 51 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 4: I like, I see it differently. 52 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: I see it differently because like if they had lost, 53 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: then I think it would have called into question to 54 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: previous victories because the science skilling can't the signs stealing 55 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: scandal would cover both of those games. But because of 56 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: the way they won yesterday, I don't know how you 57 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: can really even throw that out there. Like they dominated 58 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: Ohio State when it was time to dominate them in 59 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, in the second half, when they needed 60 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: to run the football, when everyone in the stadium knew 61 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: that they were running the football, they kind of shoved 62 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,119 Speaker 1: it down Ohio State's throws. And so for me, if anything, 63 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: I think the pressure and the fallout falls on the 64 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: shoulders of Ryan Day and the buck Eyes more so 65 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: than the Wolverines. Because the Wolverines have won despite Jim 66 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: Harbor missing half of the season, they still have gone undefeated. 67 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: They're sitting here in the Big Ten Championship game, and 68 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: if they take care of business, TA going to be 69 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: in the College Football Playoff. To me, that is really 70 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: impressive because all the things at Youmnia villeged they took 71 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: the main person off the field and it didn't stop 72 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: the wins from coming. If anything, I think everyone is 73 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: looking at Ohio State sideways more so than Michigan. 74 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: Could very well be. You mentioned Ryan Day. Let's talk 75 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 2: about it for a second. His record is coach at 76 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: Ohio State is fifty six and seven. That's unbelievable really 77 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: any other school. They probably built a statue for the guy. 78 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: But he's failed to win a Big Ten title for 79 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: three straight years. That's unacceptable at Ohio State. That's the 80 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: longest at Ohio State in ten years after yesterday. He's also, 81 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: get this, the first Ohio State coach since John Cooper 82 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: to lose not one, not two, but three straight games 83 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: against Michigan. Worse, even worse than that, he's one and 84 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: six against top five opponents in the Associated Press. And 85 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 2: I got to believe there's some alums, or maybe more 86 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: than some, that want this guy out. He's on the 87 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: hot seat, which is nuts, but that's just the way 88 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: it is in Ohio State. 89 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: Oh I'm sure they're upset because you know, that place, 90 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: unlike other places, is about beating the rival. Yes, you 91 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: want to win at the highest level, you want to 92 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 1: win championships and all that, but it's really important that 93 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: you knock off the robber. You have to win the game. 94 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: And the fact that they've lost three in a row 95 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: has prevented them from being able to play in the 96 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: Big Ten Championship game, and it's prevented them from kind 97 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: of being the national championship team that they fancied themselves as. 98 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: Even though last year they. 99 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: Got into the playoff, they took Georgia to the end. 100 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: It probably could have and maybe should have won that game. 101 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter because they weren't able to knock off the rival. 102 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: And they're gonna be a lot of fans and that 103 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: fan base that are really upset about it. That's it. 104 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: You can't get rid of them because he lost to Michigan. 105 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: You talk about their record, He's gonna lost what six 106 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: or seven games. 107 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 4: Who's going to. 108 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Be a better coach than Ryan Day has been at 109 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: Ohio State. You can't bring Urban Meyer back. So unless 110 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: Urban It is coming back, I don't know who the 111 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: natural upgrade is over Ryan Day eventually the warm return. 112 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: But right now Michigan kind of has control of the series. 113 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: Do you like Michigan now to win it all? I mean, 114 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 2: the standing is gonna come out on Tuesday, for sure. 115 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: I think Georgia will still be number one. I mean 116 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a lot of people kind of voting 117 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: perhaps for Michigan. But I still think the fact that 118 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: Georgia won yesterday, they're not going to give up the 119 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 2: number one spot. So Georgia's number one for sure. Michigan's 120 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: got to go to number two. Washington now if they 121 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 2: win yesterday. It was a close one twenty four to 122 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: twenty win over Washington State. But look they're still undefeated 123 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 2: at twelve and ohs, So in my mind they're number 124 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: three in Florida State. With the winnover of Florida yesterday 125 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 2: twenty four to fifteen, then number four. 126 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: I think the last two spots are will be the 127 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: ones that are that will be debated. Right So, Washington, 128 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: you played a tough game against the Robin and the 129 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: Apple Cup. They want took a field goal at the 130 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: end for them to win. They now have to turn 131 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: around and play the PAC twelf championship game against Oregon. 132 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: I think the winner continues to go into the playoff 133 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: and then Florida State playing with a backup quarterback. They 134 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: were able to survive and move on against Florida, but 135 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: I think they're the team that's vulnerable. The team that 136 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: they face Louisville in the ACC championship game lost to Kentucky, 137 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: so that will take away some of that, will take 138 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: some of the shine off off of them when they play. 139 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 4: I just wonder, I wonder if they leave the door open. 140 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: For an Alabama or Texas to kind of creep in there. 141 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: If Alabama knocks off Georgia, does Texas jump in there. 142 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: I just think we still don't know who those four 143 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: teams are going to be because the championship game weekend 144 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: next weekend will determined. 145 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: A lot goes on, and let's remember this, I mean 146 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: there's still an outside opportunity. Ohio State obviously has their 147 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 2: face pressed against the glasses. Number five. Ohio State still 148 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: has a shot. They need some help, but Ohio State 149 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 2: still could get in in the top four. 150 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they can. I think the big thing 151 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: is it would take a few losses for them to 152 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: creep back up in there, even though they were a 153 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: team that was number one team and all that. I 154 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: just don't know how you can put them in if 155 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: some of these other teams win their league championship, I 156 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: don't know how it works in their favor. 157 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: It worked in their favre last year. 158 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: But man, at some point, you have to be rewarded 159 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: for winning your league championship. If you don't win the championship, 160 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: I just don't know how you can get a seat 161 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: at the table when there are only four teams that 162 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: are invited to the dance. 163 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: Okay, I know you watched the Alabama game, and to me, 164 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: the thing that came to mind watching that game, with 165 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: Alabama winning twenty seven to twenty four at the end, 166 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: I'd rather be lucky than good Isaiah Bond. With that, 167 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 2: have you ever seen a play like that? You know, 168 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: they screwed up the down before that with a bad 169 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: snap from center. They put them in a bad situation 170 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: Alabama was and all of a sudden, Jalen Milroe throws 171 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: that pass in the corner of the end zone. Isaiah 172 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,119 Speaker 2: Bond comes out of nowhere, makes the catch. Alabama wins 173 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty four. I couldn't believe it. No, 174 00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: it's a great play. 175 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: It's one of those plays that makes you fall in 176 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: love with college football all over again. So I'm watching 177 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: I'm watching it at a restaurant. I'm looking at it 178 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: second left, and you're just trying to figure out, Man, 179 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: it's third in a million. You got to get it 180 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: in the end zone. How possibly is Jayleen milro gonna 181 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: be able to fit this ball into a tight window. 182 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: And then you see them not rush. You see them 183 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: kind of dance in the pocket and wait and wait 184 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: and wait, and then when you see the ball gone, 185 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: You're like, man, it's one on one in the corner 186 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: of the end zone. He throws it at the right spot, 187 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: the right location, bonds toe taps to get both two 188 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: feet in instead of just one, and I'm just kind. 189 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 4: Of blown away. 190 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: And the only thing that I could equate it to 191 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: is having been around high school football for so long, 192 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: you just know that it's never over. You have to 193 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: always coach it through the final horn. And look, man, 194 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,599 Speaker 1: if I'm Hugh Freeze, I'm sick because they deserve to 195 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: win the game. They just couldn't finish the game off 196 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: when they had chances. 197 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: You know, I watched that game and as soon as 198 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 2: that score was made, they panned to the stands. They 199 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: were people crying. The Auburn fans were crying. I mean, 200 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: you know they talk about rivalry week. I mean, I 201 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 2: don't think people realize, you know, the intensity between fan 202 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 2: bases and schools. I knew Ohio State and Michigan that's 203 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 2: a tremendous rivalry. But even your school, North Carolina was 204 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: playing North Carolina State. I don't want to bring that up, 205 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: but they lost again, North Carolina thirty nine and twenty. 206 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: I guess there's something. There's something when you play the 207 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: rival you do something internally. What was it like when 208 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: you played against NC State when you were at North Carolina. 209 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure didn't make a difference what the team's record was. 210 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: You're going to go out there, you want to beat 211 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: that rival. 212 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, the rival the rivaly game is always different, and 213 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: you can throw out the records. There is something about 214 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: the rivaly game that brings out the best in both 215 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: teams and the competition. When I was in school in 216 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: C State had the upper hand. We didn't knock them 217 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: off into my final season at North Carolina. Right now, 218 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: they're going through a run where they've dominated the city. 219 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: They won the last three in a row, and from 220 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: start to finish, they dominated the game. Drake may will 221 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: be the number one and number two pick in the 222 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: drafts if he comes out, but he didn't play well 223 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: against n C State, and it kind of continues a 224 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: trend where he hasn't played well in these games against 225 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: Marquis opponents. I don't think that'ssuade him from coming out, 226 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: but it's one of the things that scouts would have 227 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: to talk about. But right now, ANC State has been 228 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: a tougher team. They've been a better team, and it 229 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: pays me to say that as a tar heel, but 230 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: you have to give NC State their flowers. They have 231 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: dominated the series. They have owned the series the last 232 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: few years. 233 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 2: They certainly haven't. You have someone who played well yesterday. 234 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: I looked at that Oklahoma State Brigham Young game, Oli Gordon. 235 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: It's what he did yesterday. I gotta believe he's gonna 236 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: get some votes for the Heisman. I know that Oklahoma 237 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 2: State is going nowhere. Yes, they've got to go to 238 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 2: the championship game and we'll see what happens there. But 239 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: they won in double overtime against Brigham Young forty to 240 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: thirty four. But that wasn't the story. The story was 241 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: Ali Gordon, who ran for five touchdowns thirty four freaking 242 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: carries on one hundred and sixty six yards. 243 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 3: Unbelievable. 244 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 2: I mean that was better than what Barry Sanders had 245 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 2: done when he was at Oklahoma State. It's unbelievable. I mean, 246 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: I watched that guy yesterday. He gets stronger as the 247 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:11,599 Speaker 2: game goes on. 248 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, he doesn't get stronger as the game will goes on. 249 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: They just kind of slug it away. They hammer teams 250 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 1: and they were down. Man, you had control of the game, 251 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: but couldn't look down by eighteen. 252 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: I mean, just couldn't put it away. 253 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: And it's really a testament to Ohio State being able 254 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 1: to stick with the playing, continue to give the ball 255 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: to the best player on the ground and for Oli 256 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: to take it over. He took the game over when 257 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: it mattered, when they needed him to kind of step 258 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: up and kind of give them that playmaking. 259 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 4: He was able to do that. 260 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: And you know, it's unfortunate because kudos to Oklahoma State 261 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: from winning it. They now will face Texas in the 262 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: championship game. But man, I was clamoring for that Oklahoma 263 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: Texas rematch. It won't happen, but I thought that was 264 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: gonna be a good one to watch. This should be 265 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: a good game as well. But now Texas has to 266 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: the game as the heavy favorite, and they not only 267 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: have to win the game, but they kind of have 268 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: to show and prove to everybody that they're head and 269 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: shoulders above the rest of that pack that's hanging just 270 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: on the fringes outside of the final four. 271 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 2: Okay, now my question, is there any chance in your 272 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: mind that Olie Gordon wins the Heisman Trophy. I think 273 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: this is this is a year that is kind of 274 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,599 Speaker 2: wide open, and it may be a year where a 275 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: quarterback does not win the Heisman. 276 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: I think if it's going to be a non quarterback, yeah, 277 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: he's the guy that can win it. Here's the thing 278 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: about the Heisman Trophy this year. There's not really a 279 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: guy that stands out above them all. There's been recent 280 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: conversation about Jalen Daniels because he's been terrific. He's rushed 281 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: over a thousand yards. 282 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 4: I mean, his numbers have been but the. 283 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 3: Team hasn't done anything, but this hasn't that's a fact. 284 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 4: There is no the team hasn't done anything. 285 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: But then what we have to figure out, Like originally 286 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: this award was for the best player in college football. 287 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: It has become the best player from the best team 288 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: in college football right right now, there's no one on 289 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: Georgia that could deserve it. There's no one on Michigan 290 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: that you could give it to if they were like 291 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: in the top seed. You think about Washington and Oregon. 292 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: Those teams have been really good, those players have been good. 293 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: But coming out of the West, are they going to 294 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: cannibalize themselves when it comes to the voting. Everyone on 295 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: the West Coast has seen Pinnox in votnext to people 296 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: elsewhere have not, So who are they going to side against? 297 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if either one of those guys. So 298 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: that's why Jim Daniels kind of came to mind, like, well, 299 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: maybe he ends up winning because everyone in the SEC 300 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: has seen them so all the South Post is no 301 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: one in the ACC Maybe he benefits from being kind 302 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: of the only one on that side of the country 303 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: to be able to command all the attention based on 304 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: what the work that he's put between the lines. 305 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he brought LSU back yesterday against Texas A 306 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 2: and M forty two thirty, so we'll see what happens there. 307 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: So I don't know. And there was rumors late last 308 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: night that Texas A and M was going after Stoops, 309 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: the coach of Kentucky, and then he backed out, so 310 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 2: he wasn't going to do it, you know, And I 311 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: don't blame him. I mean, when you're a football coach 312 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 2: Kentucky and he's done a decent job over there, you 313 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: know you kind of second fiddle. It's a basketball school 314 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: at A and M. You know you better like do 315 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 2: it and do it all. They want everything out of 316 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 2: you over there, and there's a it's a pressure cooker. 317 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: I get it, and a lot of people don't want 318 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 2: it or can't handle it. So at Kentucky he's very satisfied. 319 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: I think in Kentucky, with the athletic threat that wants 320 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 2: and with the staff wants over there, is hey be competitive, 321 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 2: don't get in trouble, don't go on probation, and let's 322 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: just wait for basketball to start. 323 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: I mean, they're very well may be the case. I mean, 324 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: he has done a really good job. He's got them 325 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: up and going. He doesn't have big time expectations. He's 326 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: made that program a very competitive program in the league. 327 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: Is regarded as the best in football. I mean, you 328 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: saw the way they beat down Louisville yesterday. They had 329 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: their way. They were able to dominate the game. And 330 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: Stoops deserves a lot of credit for making it seem 331 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: relevant in the SEC. If he stepped into Texas A 332 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: and M without it's another rebuilding project. You have meddlesome 333 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: boost students who they look they're willing to pay you, 334 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: but they're going to be very involved in how the 335 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: football program proceeds. As a coach, do you really want that? 336 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: He decided it was too much for him. It'd be 337 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: interesting to see who eventually takes that job because the name, 338 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: the rumor meal has been bouncing all kinds of names 339 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: like a Dabbo Swiney potentially taking that.

Because the college games were so 386 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 2: great yesterday, I got to ask you this question. All right, 387 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm watching the Alabama game. At the end of the game, right, 388 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 2: Jalen Milrose in the quarterback slot. He's in the pocket. 389 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 2: It looks like he could have taken a nap, he was. 390 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: I could have had a rocking chair to pipe in 391 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 2: a book. That's how much time he got. How come 392 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: and you're a coach, you know the game, you're a scout. 393 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 2: How come Auburn only runched two or three guys? Why 394 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: would they given that much time in the pocket? And 395 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 2: then he spotted Isaiah Bond in the corner. Boom bang. 396 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 2: That's the game up in there with Auburn. 397 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, it's such a tough game, you know, for Auburn. 398 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 4: And I understand what the coaches are thinking. 399 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: The coaches are thingk and the only way they can 400 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: lose this game is if the ball is thrown into 401 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: the end zone. We're gonna rush three. We're gonna put 402 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: eight back at the line, the in line. We're gonna 403 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: make sure it's not thrown over the head. But by 404 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: not rushing the quarterback, they allow them to kind of 405 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: dance around. And the hardest thing to do is a 406 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: dB is to plaster your guy, meaning stick to your 407 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: men for a long duration. And so when everyone is 408 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: cristling across the field and the guys are kind of 409 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: moving and then are full of scrambled drill, so they're 410 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: not running traditional routes. They're just kind of running around. 411 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: It's difficult. And when you're one on one and everyone 412 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: has been talking about, well, why don't they have eyes 413 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: on the quarterback and doing this, Well, here's the thing. 414 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: You can't necessarily spot drop and just look at the 415 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: quarterback because you got to feel where the man is. 416 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 4: But when you go to field. 417 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: Your men, your eyes are not to the quarterback. And 418 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: unfortunately for the corner, the dB that was left alone 419 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: in the corner of the end zone, Bond made a 420 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,199 Speaker 1: little push off, a subtle maneuver could him in offensive 421 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: bass interference to create just enough space to make the catch. 422 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you, if they've run that play one 423 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: hundred times, it may only happen like the way it 424 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: happened yesterday once. But it doesn't matter because when it mattered, 425 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: that's what happened. But it's a play it never should happen, 426 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 1: never should have happen. 427 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: I'm with you right there. I couldn't believe it. I mean, 428 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 2: the amount of time that he had there is nuts. 429 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 2: But we move On's move on to the NFL right now. 430 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 2: We got the Panthers at the Titans today. The Panthers 431 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 2: are one to nine, and I'm not a gamble here, 432 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 2: but they're two seven and one against the spread for 433 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 2: those that are interested, So why wouldn't you pick the 434 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans today? However, and you know this as well 435 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: as anybody, Bucky Brooks, the Tennessee Titans offensive line stinks 436 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 2: and the teams are blitzing their quarterback Will Leffis maybe 437 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 2: on half of his throws, and the Panthers give up 438 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 2: about four four and a half rushing yards a pop. 439 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: But Derek Henry should have a decent day today. The Titans, 440 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:01,239 Speaker 2: maybe without their tackled Chris Hubbard, I still think the 441 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 2: Titans are the better team. 442 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 3: You know, sometimes I can't. I'm not picking anymore. 443 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 2: I just take guesses now because I think last Sunday 444 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 2: I was destroyed. 445 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 3: I couldn't believe what happened. So you just don't know. 446 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: These teams are so evenly match except maybe Philadelphia, San 447 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: Francisco and maybe Baltimore. Other than that, everybody's in a 448 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: pile of the same. 449 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the Tennessee Titans. A hard one, man, 450 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: because just watched them last week. I mean, a quarterback 451 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: just struggles, and if they can't run the football. With 452 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, it makes it very, very difficult for Will 453 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: Levis to exist. He had that one game early against 454 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons where I think he had four touchdowns. 455 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: But since then, man, he's just had a tough time. 456 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: Even the touchdowns that he had last year. Last week 457 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: against the Jaguars, they were late in the game, it 458 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: was off a trick play. The team is kind of 459 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: lost focused, so he hasn't played well. It would be 460 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 1: hard for me to say, hey, man, I'm gonna go 461 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: all in on the Tennessee Titans. The issue is though 462 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: the Caroline Panthers has been terrible the entire year. Frank Raich, 463 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: it was calling plays. Did he gave the play calls 464 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: to Thomas Brown? Did he took him back? And the 465 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: offense still hasn't changed. I feel you, I wouldn't go 466 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: heavy on thettenc Titans, but in this when the Titans 467 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: have to be the favorite because you haven't seen enough 468 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: from the Panthers to make you feel otherwise. 469 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 2: And what about this note? The New England Patriots are 470 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 2: playing the Giants today in joy Z, Okay. 471 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 3: Patriots are favored. Can you believe that the New England. 472 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: Patriots are favored in this game, and the Giants underseaid 473 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: that today again Tommy DeVito, and last week he was 474 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 2: eighteen for twenty five two hundred and forty sixty yards, 475 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 2: three touchdowns last week over the Commanders of Washington. But 476 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: the bad news is he was sacked nine times, nine 477 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,719 Speaker 2: times yesterday. So the question I have though, who's going 478 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 2: to be the quarterback for the Patriots today? 479 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 3: Really, I have no idea. 480 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: Magdalen mac mag jones back says, look, I mean he 481 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: asked me like, if Bailey's Appy was going to be 482 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: the quarterback, they would have gave Bailey z Appy the 483 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: thing a long time ago. He hasn't played well enough 484 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: to take the job. I think they would certainly want 485 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: him to be the quarterback. He just hasn't played well 486 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: enough to take the job. So that's why to go 487 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: to mac Jones. 488 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: And I would think that Patriots could run and they 489 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: will run the ball against the Giants today. And I 490 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 2: think the Patriots, even though they are favored, I still 491 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 2: think they're going to win. 492 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 3: I can't figure them out. 493 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 2: They're two and eight, which is ridiculous for Bill Belichick 494 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 2: coach team. And I got to believe next year he'll 495 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 2: probably be coaching somewhere else. I don't think he'll be 496 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 2: in New England. But he's only sixteen win shy of 497 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 2: the all time win record, which is held by the 498 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 2: late Don Shula. 499 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 3: I think he wants to write that before he leaves coaching. 500 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 4: He does want to break it. 501 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: I think the Patriots need to make sure that. 502 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 4: He can't turn this team around. 503 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: And I know it's been four years since we've seen 504 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots at their best. They've only had one playoff 505 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: win during that span. They fall on hard times, but 506 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: they got won six titles in twenty years. I would 507 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: like to think that that buys you a little grace 508 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: for a slumping period while you're doing a rebuild. Yes, 509 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: you gave him the opportunity to pick the quarterback in 510 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: mac Jones and those things, and it hasn't worked out. 511 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 1: But it's Bill Belichick we're talking about. I mean, you're 512 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: talking about a six time champion. You talked about someone 513 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 1: who is eventually going to be the all time leader 514 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: and wins in the National Football League. 515 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 4: I would just be careful to move off of him 516 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 4: too soon. 517 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 2: Would you just say that Bill Belichick is the greatest 518 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 2: coach of all time in the NFL, or would you 519 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 2: put Don Shuler up there and Vince Lombardi. 520 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: To me, Vince Lombardi would be just because of the 521 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: level of dominance to wait, the sheer number of World championship, 522 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl titles and that short span. I think everyone 523 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: recognizes him for his greatness, Don Shuler, for all the 524 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: great things that Don Shuler was, and I would say 525 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: his best coaching came in the seventies when they went 526 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: what they go back to back or three out of 527 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: four whatever they did the early seventies when they had 528 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: the unbeaten team, they came back. I think they won 529 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: it again, like all of that stuff deserved. But remember 530 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: at the end he went to the Super Bowl and 531 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: Marinos what second year and that was it. Never sniffed 532 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: it again, right, So we have to understand and appreciate 533 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: how hard it is to get to the Super Bowl 534 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,479 Speaker 1: and not just flippantly say, well, I mean he went 535 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: to six, but he should be able to go back 536 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: for seven or eight. They're not a lot of teams 537 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: that go back. They may go one time, but that's it. 538 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: That's your lottery ticket. You may not have another chance to. 539 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: Go okay, let's talk about this Mount Rushmore, which I 540 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 2: hate doing. Bill to do it anyway, you got three 541 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 2: of three of the four on Mount Rushmore. You got Lombardi, 542 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 2: you got Shula, you got Belichick. Who's your fourth Lombardi 543 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 2: Shoela when he retires, you may want to put Andy 544 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 2: Reid up there if he could fit. 545 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: Andy Reed will get up there because he's creeping up there. 546 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: When it comes to numbers, I would say the fourth 547 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: for me would have to be Bill Walsh has to 548 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: be up there, right either Bill Walsh. 549 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 4: Chucking hole those I'll put Bill Walsh. I'll put Bill Walsh. 550 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: Up there just because of not only the level of 551 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: dominance that the Niners have. I think he won three 552 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 1: Super Bowls for the San FRANCISCOO forty nine ers, but 553 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: the innovation. Everybody took everything that he did and put 554 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: it in the practice. I mean, you think about the 555 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: scripting the first fifteen. That's all the Bill wash thing. 556 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: The way they approached the passing game is basically a 557 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: short replacement for the running game. The short pass game 558 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: is basically repunt replacement for the run. He deserves a 559 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: lot of credit. You know, I have a hard time though, 560 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: because as much as I said, I said, Bill Washington, 561 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: and I told you Chuck and Nole, you could throw 562 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: in Joe Gibbs as one of the best, won three 563 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: Super Bowls with three different quarterbacks. I mean he has Yeah, 564 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: he has a level of greatness. Yeah, that Mount Rushmore 565 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: is tough. But right now I will put Bill Wash 566 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: with Chuck and Ole right in his hip pocket. 567 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 3: There you go, He's Bucket Brooks. I made the firmaly 568 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 3: with Fox Football Sunny a Fox Sports Radio and coming 569 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 3: up next on Fox Live from the Tyraq dot com studios. 570 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 2: This team is a fraud, but how can they lose today? 571 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 2: But first, this guy, there is no fraud at all. 572 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 2: It's Kevin Wyertt.

But the Steelers are playing at 624 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 2: the Bengals today, and I say, Bucky Brooks that the 625 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: Steelers are a bit of a fraud. But the next 626 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 2: question is how in the hell can they have a 627 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: lose today? To the backup quarterback on the Bengals, Jake Browning, 628 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: that's my question. 629 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 3: I don't think they will. 630 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: Can always lose. I mean if they turned the ball over. 631 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: This is a team that the struggle scoring points of 632 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: the game will be within range. So if they help, 633 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: if they help them by turning the ball over, by 634 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: not taking care of business, yeah, Jay brown is good 635 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: enough with the supporting cast that he has around them 636 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati to win the game. But this should be 637 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: one where the Pittsburgh still is get back on track fire. 638 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: Their offense coordinator Mat Canada, Uh, you know, split the 639 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: responsibilities between two guys. We'd like to think that Deontay 640 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: Johnson will touch the ball more. It seems like he 641 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: had a little issue that he wasn't touching enough that 642 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: spilled out into a little drama inside the locker room. 643 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 3: I think that's good, though, tell me yeah, I. 644 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: Don't know if I think the fallout is what matters. 645 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: If they were able to kind of have a knockdown, 646 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: drag out, get it all out where everyone understands what 647 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: a better understanding of the other person's feelings and stances, 648 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: then that's one thing. But if it continues to fester 649 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: under the surface, then it can it can fracture your team. 650 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: The best teams I found the one is to get 651 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: along the best not that they always agree, but there's 652 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: a mutual respect between players, between coaches, coach to player. 653 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 4: All that stuff exists. 654 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: So you don't see these epic explosions. You see more 655 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: hard conversations with great communication and dialogue that allow you 656 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: to reach the solutions we'll see at Pittsburgh was able 657 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: to handle it in that fashion. Well. 658 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 2: I called the steel as a fraud because they failed 659 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 2: to out gain any of their opponents this year. You know, 660 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 2: last week they had two hundred and forty nine yards. 661 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 2: They gained less Sunday, but out of those two hundred 662 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: and forty nine yards. They're running a back Jaalen Warren 663 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 2: at of seventy four yards touchdown run, and the other 664 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 2: running back, Najee Harris, had thirty six yards from the scrimmage. 665 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 2: So they got to do something offensively and the defense 666 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: cannot just hold them. The entire year that had seventy 667 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: seven net passing yards. That was the fewest I had 668 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 2: in about four years. It's amazing what they're doing. But 669 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: they still have a winning record, and I still think 670 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 2: they'll be good enough to beat the CINCINNTI Bengals today. 671 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 2: Because again there was a stat here which is unbelievable, 672 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 2: but I'll run it out to you anyway. The Steelers 673 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 2: never lose to quarterbacks, making their first start eight straight starts, 674 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,719 Speaker 2: dating back to losing to Brett Favre back in nineteen 675 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: ninety two. 676 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 3: So that's a good thing. 677 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 2: But I don't think it means anything, but it's just 678 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,239 Speaker 2: good father to look at prior to the game. I 679 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: just still think that Jake Browning is ready to lead 680 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 2: this Bengals team in his first start to beat the 681 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers. 682 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: No, and it takes a lot of help, you know. 683 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: It takes a lot of help for the stillers to 684 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: be able to make it happen. If they don't help him, 685 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: then he's gonna have a hard time. You know, you're 686 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: a hard time getting it there. So that's the only 687 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: of course, I don't think he is good enough on 688 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: his own accord to get engaged in a shootout and 689 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: beat them like that. It takes the stell has been 690 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: off the game to help him. 691 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 2: Right, I'm with you, and I think they got a 692 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 2: couple of people down. I think Henderson may not be 693 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,239 Speaker 2: playing for the Bengals. If he does, he's banged up 694 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 2: pretty good. And you know they're running game is not good. 695 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 2: And the defense on the Cincinnati Bengals this year very poor. 696 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: So bad defense to have this year. And you know 697 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: they took on talking about the defensive coordinator lou and 698 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 2: Roman and I'll tell you what, You're only as good 699 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 2: as your personnel, you know, And basically they've lost a 700 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 2: lot of people in the secondary and linebacking situation. I 701 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 2: just don't think that you could put a guy on 702 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 2: a pedestal if you don't have the personnel. I mean again, 703 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 2: and I hate to say this, you look at Bill Belichick, 704 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 2: I mean, he just doesn't have the personnel. 705 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 3: They have a quarterback. You know, you can't knock the guy. 706 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 2: But just just the way it is, you're only as 707 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 2: good as the people you have playing for you. 708 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it's true. I mean, I mean there's a 709 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: lot of truth to that, and you've called it out. 710 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: If you don't have the right people, it's gonna be 711 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: hard to win games, and you just have to hope 712 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: that you can. 713 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 4: Find a way to win. 714 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: You know that you can find a way to just 715 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: kind of get it done and move forward. We'll see 716 00:32:58,840 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: if it happens. 717 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 3: We'll see that. 718 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 2: There's Saints and the Falcons today and again this Falcons team, 719 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 2: they got to get their act together because now they've 720 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 2: got to believe that Taylor Heinike is not the answer 721 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 2: to quarterbacks. So what's happening. Desmond Rider is going to 722 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 2: start today for the Atlanta Falcons. So they got to 723 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 2: make a decision. I guess the Falcons right now, I'm 724 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 2: not happy with either one. Either one is not going 725 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 2: to lead them to the Promised Land. But now Desmond 726 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: Riddy gets another shot. I guess it's a desperate situation 727 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 2: right now. But you know, the Falcons at four and six, 728 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: probably not going anywhere in the Saints right now. Hopefully 729 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: their quarterbacking situation will be lined up. Today they're five 730 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 2: and five, and I think they'll win this game. So 731 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 2: we'll see if Derek Carr could get it going for him. 732 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 2: So I think I got the great wide receiver in 733 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: a Lave, Chris Olave. So I think right now the 734 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: Saints just a better team and more organized. You just 735 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 2: can't be switching quarterbacks because I think that hurts. 736 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 3: It hurts an offensive setup. It really does. 737 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: No, you can't. You can't keep switching quarterbacks. At some point, 738 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: you got to settle lamp and your quarterback is your quarterback. 739 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: And it can be tough to kind of say, hey 740 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 1: this is my guy and all that other stuff, but 741 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: at some point, your quarterback is your quarterback and you 742 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: have to be okay with whatever comes along with that. 743 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: And Desmond Ritter is not a high end quarterback, but 744 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: he's played winning football for them. He just has to 745 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: take care of the ball. He's turned the ball over 746 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: in the red zone, which has been his biggest issue. 747 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: If he takes care of the ball in the red zone, 748 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 1: it gives the Falcons a chance because he's more dynamic, 749 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: he has better arm talent than Talahinike. They just need 750 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: him to play winning football, which is air free football. Right. 751 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 2: And Derek Carr, they say it's coming back back for 752 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: the concussion for the Saints, but you know, he has 753 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 2: not been the Derek Carr that we expected, at least 754 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 2: the Saints expected, and the fans were calling for Jamis 755 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 2: Winston to be the quarterback. So both teams are coming 756 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 2: off of buy this comes down today, and my mind 757 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: comes down to coaching. 758 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 3: I think the Saints win this game. M m no, yeah, I. 759 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,959 Speaker 1: Mean no, no, no, no, no, no. 760 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 4: They should win it. They should win it. 761 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 1: I still have my reservations on Derek Carr, but they 762 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:10,799 Speaker 1: should win this game. 763 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 4: If Derek Carr is. 764 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: What they believe he was worth to give up what 765 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: they give up, gave up to get him to pay 766 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: him to the deal did they pay him. He has 767 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: to at some point delivery Dery Carr cannot be the 768 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: game manager making the kind of money that he's making. 769 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 1: Their expectation was that he was going to take them 770 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 1: from good to great. He hasn't given him that now, 771 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: so they're waiting on him. 772 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: Interesting, Okay, he's Bucky Brooks.

Go deeper than 793 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions in the playoffs. Any reason why Deak Prescott. 794 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: Dek Prescott is playing out of control. The getting turnovers 795 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: on defense. 796 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 4: Good quarterback play. 797 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 1: Turnovers on defense gives you a chance to win a 798 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: ton of games. They're just not you better than the 799 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: Detroit lines when it comes to forcing turnovers. 800 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 3: And you mentioned quarterback play. 801 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 2: Jared Goff is really beginning to slide a little bit now, 802 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 2: a little sloppiness. 803 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 3: I surre on Thanksgiving Day. So it's not good. Not good. 804 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 3: We'll see what happens there. All right, we move on. 805 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the lack of offense for the Kansas 806 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 2: City Chiefs. Travis Kelcey is averaging like ten and a 807 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: half yards per reception, which is a career low. How 808 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 2: much has the offense missed Offensive coordinator Eric b Enemy. 809 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: They missed him. They missed him because what he did, 810 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,439 Speaker 1: he bounced out the run game a little bit, gave 811 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: them that that president presence in the run game that 812 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: you wanted to see, and they just haven't been able 813 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: to get there. So yeah, now they missed them. They 814 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: missed him. 815 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 4: Terrify. 816 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 2: You know, it's funny you don't hear much about that. 817 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 2: I mean, no one's cried. There's been no stories in 818 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 2: the national media about Eric b Enemy's loss and the 819 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 2: loss of offensive firepower for the Kansas City Chiefs. I 820 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: thought that that would be for sure our story, but 821 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 2: it's not so. 822 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 3: But I guess that's the way it is. 823 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 2: People just turn their back, and I guess as long 824 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 2: as Kansas City wins, they don't really care. Now, next question, 825 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 2: how can the New York Jets honestly start and play 826 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: quarterback Tim Boyle, a graduate of the University of Connecticut 827 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 2: war Is it the call from Aaron Rodgers because he's 828 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 2: his buddy? 829 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 4: Yeah? 830 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 1: Man, gosh, I don't know. 831 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 4: I don't know how. 832 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a tough one. I don't know 833 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: how you can in good in good faith, say hey, 834 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 1: this is this is this is my guys, this is 835 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: what we want to do. Uh. 836 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 4: He didn't. He didn't throw the ball well. 837 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 1: When he was in commege embarrassing it didn't didn't didn't 838 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: didn't throw it well. I had a tough time, a 839 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: tough time. 840 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 3: You're an NFL scout. 841 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 2: Could you honestly say that Tim Boyle really is not 842 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: an NFL caliber quarterback? 843 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: Uh? You could say that, you can say that he 844 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: benefits from the time that you know the era where 845 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: we're at when it comes to quarterback playing what's acceptable 846 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: versus what's not. Uh, it hasn't been great though it 847 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 1: definitely is not being great for him is disgusting. 848 00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 3: It really is. 849 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,919 Speaker 2: Now Washington Commanders are the defensive coordinator. Jack del Real 850 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 2: the other day, how much time now does head coach 851 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 2: Ron Rivera have? 852 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: Oh? 853 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 4: The clock is ticket? 854 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,919 Speaker 1: I mean this year. Normally, when the coach makes that move, 855 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: he knows it's getting hot in the kitchen and he's 856 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: trying to get some of the heat off of him. 857 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: He knows he's on the clock. If he doesn't win soon, 858 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: it's no he's going to be the one that's out. 859 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 2: New ownership there as well. They make clean house, that's 860 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: for sure. So we'll see what happens there. Now, let's 861 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: talk about the Dallas Cowboys for a second. By the 862 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys better than the previous Dallas Cowboy teams that 863 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 2: fell short trying to get to the postseason deep. 864 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: Then a little better just because defensively they can make 865 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: it happen. I don't think they're a stellar team. I 866 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: need to see them win against the team would have 867 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: winning record, But they are doing what they're supposed to be. 868 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: They're smashing the teams that are not as good as them. 869 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: That's what you want to see. But you got to 870 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: see more before we can get really, really, really excited 871 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: about what the Cowboys are bringing to the table. 872 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you. 873 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 2: They really haven't played anybody what they put up like 874 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 2: eighty nine total points against beating the Giants twice this 875 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 2: year and that was a joke. 876 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it was a joke. But I 877 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: can't pig resident. I can't be mad at them for winning. 878 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: They're doing what they're supposed to do when it comes 879 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: to winning games. They're winning the games they're supposed to win. 880 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 2: There you go, Okay, last, but not least, you're Jacksonville Jaguars. 881 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 3: Are they really now ready for prime time? 882 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: I think? So this goes along with this is a 883 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 1: big game that they're you know, they're facing the Houston 884 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: Texans and it's one of those games where if they win, 885 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,799 Speaker 1: they can kind of take control of the division. It's 886 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: a huge jame. It's time for them to kind of 887 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: step up and show people how good they are. 888 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 2: And let's talk about the Jacksonville Jaguars. What is the 889 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 2: mood in the Jacksonville area. Right now, fans are going 890 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 2: crazy or it's just blase. 891 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: I would say fans are going crazy. The expectation is raised, 892 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: and so we need to see them play to that 893 00:40:58,840 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: level of expectations. 894 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 2: All right, we continue right here on Fox Sports Radio. 895 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 2: This team loves to pick that's right around the corner. 896 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 2: But right now it's time to say.

Say I punch it up. Next thing 919 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 2: I'd see is November seventeenth was the last story as Wow, 920 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 2: took the day off.

I just just get it, got 924 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: to get it baked into the cake. So I'm good. 925 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 3: How tough is that to do on a weekly basis 926 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 3: for you? 927 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's first part of the routine. I'm 928 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: so used to it now. We just tend to make 929 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 1: it happen. But I could be tough. But the topics 930 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,359 Speaker 1: have been good. Football season is great, So how can 931 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: I complain? 932 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 2: I think it's great if I have anybody interested at 933 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 2: NFL dot com. Look at the writers. Bucky Brooks writes 934 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 2: every Friday there, and it's really good stuff. Now, yesterday 935 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 2: I kind of believe, perhaps in my mind, maybe I'm wrong, 936 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: it was the best day of football. 937 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 3: I've seen in a long long time. 938 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 2: And I'm comparing that to NFL as well as college 939 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 2: And I'm talking about the college games yesterday. The Alabama game, 940 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 2: the Michigan, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Brigham Young, Washington, 941 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: Washington State. There was a four tremendous games yesterday. I 942 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 2: don't see them duplicating that anytime soon. What about you, 943 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,280 Speaker 2: I know you watched them all as well. 944 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a great deal of football. It was 945 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: a great dead football. Alabama coming back is the one 946 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 1: that you certainly want to talk about. But even the 947 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: night games. I had a chance to watch Georgia Georgia Tech, 948 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 1: which is a very competitive game. Florida Florida State was 949 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: super competitive early in the day. Watched LSU and Texas 950 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: A and m Texas and M giving LSU everything that 951 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 1: they could want. All these final games when the pressure 952 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 1: is really on the teams to perform. I love seeing that. 953 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: I can't even forget about Washington, Washing State. You talked 954 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 1: about that, But yeah, the games are good. This is 955 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: what I like seeing. I like seeing some of these 956 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 1: big time matchups at the end of the season. 957 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 3: It was great, it really was. I tell you what. 958 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 2: Today with the NFL playing it's almost like a letdown, 959 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 2: it really is. I mean, there's really not one game 960 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 2: when the card today in the NFL. Maybe I'm miss 961 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,720 Speaker 2: that really kind of excites me that I have to watch. 962 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: You know, even the Chiefs they're playing the Raiders and 963 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 2: that's tomorrow and that's not much of a match. I 964 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: mean early in the season, if you would have told 965 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 2: me Bills and Eagles, that would have been something. But 966 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 2: right now that Bills team, you don't know what to 967 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 2: get on a week to week basis. It just there's 968 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 2: nothing on there that's really makes me want to say, wow, 969 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 2: I got to see this game. Especially what's happening in 970 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 2: the AFC with the loss of quarterbacks. I mean that 971 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 2: to me really damages the whole situation. The Browns lose 972 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 2: their quarterback, Joe Burrow's gone with the Bengals, it's just 973 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 2: an ugly situation with all these quarterbacks going down. 974 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a the situation. You would like to 975 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: think that you're going to see more from the quarterback 976 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: in terms of just to play. You thought you can 977 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 1: get better play. It doesn't get more consistent play. But 978 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: one thing that we've seen is everybody is getting hurt. 979 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: All these teams are having their quarterbacks getting hurt. They're 980 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: playing with backup players and and those things, and it's 981 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 1: just hard to win. It's hard to win with backup 982 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: players doing the book or they heavylifting, you. 983 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 2: Know, and paying fans don't want to see backup players. 984 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, and more than that. At the end of 985 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 2: the day, you want to see the best players play 986 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: on both teams and win in that manner. However, I'll 987 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 2: say this, blame it on the NFL. You know, they 988 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 2: talk about quarterback safety. That's a lot of bull it 989 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,839 Speaker 2: really is. You're playing games like on Monday night, you're 990 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 2: playing games on Thursday night. The Dolphins play the Jets 991 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,760 Speaker 2: on Friday. You got to give the body time to recoup, 992 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 2: and they just keep on playing. And now they're talking 993 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,800 Speaker 2: about moving from seventeen to eighteen games. Look, I've always 994 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 2: believed less is more less, and they're gonna kill the 995 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 2: boost that laid the golden egg. I'm telling you too 996 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,720 Speaker 2: much just gonna be saturated and people gonna be turned 997 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 2: off by it. I'm seeing it right now in the NBA. 998 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 2: I mean, it's ridiculous. In season tournament, no one knows 999 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 2: what the hell's going on with that. It's enough, pull 1000 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 2: it back, make it less. Less is more. I'm not 1001 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 2: saying go back to a twelve game schedule, but make 1002 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 2: it sixteen. Take away the seventeen, making an even sixteen games, 1003 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 2: and that's it. I mean, no more Friday games. And 1004 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 2: you know what, I love the NFL, love watching it. 1005 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 2: I could live without the Thursday games. They're terrible anyway, No. 1006 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 3: I mean no, I mean I kind of let's hit 1007 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 3: it out games. 1008 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 1: I kind of like the Thursday games. I know it's terrible, 1009 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: but it gives us something to watch. We've seen it. 1010 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 4: Wh I agree, well you put it on. 1011 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm looking forward to the health of the athlete. 1012 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to see these guys getting hurt. 1013 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: I mean, I get that, but you can't prevent that. 1014 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: Even if you don't play Thursday, it doesn't guarantee that 1015 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: on Sunday a player won't get hurt. 1016 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 4: It's part of a quick turnaround. 1017 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: But it's also part of the reason why NFL is 1018 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 1: the NFL is so popular. If you don't have all 1019 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: these games on TV, well, the pos shrinks when it 1020 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: comes to the money, the money that is shared with 1021 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: the players that money no longer exist, and so all 1022 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 1: the big paydays that we're seeing the people around football 1023 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: commanding you don't get that if you don't put TV on, 1024 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean early and often. I would expect to see 1025 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 1: him maybe flirt with Saturdays. We've seen some, but Mondays 1026 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 1: and Tuesdays. We saw during COVID that there was a 1027 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: little appetite for a little Tuesday night action, little NFL 1028 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,359 Speaker 1: MAC action. Yeah, it worked. I would expect to see 1029 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:22,439 Speaker 1: them kind of delve into that front because you can, 1030 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: and there's nothing that can compete with the NFL when 1031 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 1: it comes to ratings. 1032 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 3: You're exactly right. 1033 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 2: But eventually, what's going to happen, and I want to 1034 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 2: see it is going to be more pay for a view. 1035 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 3: That's what it's going to be. 1036 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,319 Speaker 2: We have to pay to watch these games, and that 1037 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 2: that would really kill me. I just don't want to 1038 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 2: do it. I do it on Thursdays, you know, it 1039 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 2: was Friday. I did it on a Friday watching the 1040 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 2: Dolphins Jets. But I just I don't want to want 1041 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: to see that happening. I want to see the freebies, 1042 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 2: I really do, But that's the way it's going to go. 1043 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 1: I believe. Yeah, I mean it's gonna be like for 1044 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of I mean, look, man, the owners 1045 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 1: love money, now, like that's the one thing everyone Everyone 1046 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 1: can be mad players and why would they do this 1047 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: and that? But man, the owners they love they love money. 1048 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 4: You know they love they do. And this is I 1049 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 4: love it too. 1050 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 3: Do you love it too? Hold you buck? You love it? 1051 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 1: Yeah? I do. But this is another opportunity for man tour. 1052 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: Why do you think we had a Black Friday game 1053 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 1: that wasn't just too Hey, let's see, let's see if 1054 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: we can sell that off and make more money. Everybody 1055 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 1: wants to cash and that's what you have an opportunity 1056 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 1: to see. 1057 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 2: There you go, Okay, here's a game that to be honest, 1058 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 2: I wouldn't care if I missed it, but it's your team. 1059 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 2: The Jags are playing at the Texas today. Let's talk 1060 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 2: about the Jacks quarterback Trevor Lawrence. He began the first 1061 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 2: player in team history with multiple passing and rushing touchdowns 1062 00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 2: in the same game in that thirty four to fourteen 1063 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 2: win over Tennessee and for Houston. I mean, maybe I 1064 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 2: will watch it because CJ. Stroud's kind of exciting. He 1065 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 2: threw for three thirty six and two touchdowns as the 1066 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 2: Texans moved to six and four. Believe it or not, 1067 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 2: with that twenty one sixteen win over Arizona last week, 1068 00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 2: and in that game, CJ. Stroud matched Joe or Ros 1069 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 2: rookie record with three consecutive games with at least three 1070 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 2: hundred passing yards. That's the hell of a stat. But 1071 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 2: he did have three I in T's last week. I 1072 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 2: kind of like Houston over your Jacks today. I hate 1073 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 2: to say that, but I like CJ. 1074 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 3: Strott. 1075 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: I really do see everybody the bandwagon is. 1076 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 4: It's lighter now. 1077 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 1: Everyone is on the hot shiny toy than Jacquie ruarterback, 1078 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: who has played well. He's got this team that was 1079 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,799 Speaker 1: look everyone thought this team was left for dead there 1080 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:36,720 Speaker 1: now and probably in the playoff picture. In the discussion 1081 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: if they win, but they can take up a division. 1082 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: Here's what I say. The Texans have kind of dominated 1083 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 1: the Jaguars in this matchup recently. No matter what the 1084 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: records are, the Texans have always found a way to 1085 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,920 Speaker 1: slow down the Jacks. Only recently has the worm turned 1086 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: a little bit. Last year, the Jacks able to get 1087 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: some wins this year early. It was ugly, but they 1088 00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: found a way to get done. I think that motivates 1089 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 1: the Jacks. I think you'll see the cleanest game that 1090 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,760 Speaker 1: you've seen from the Jaguars, and that is kind of scary. 1091 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 1: This game would be tightly contested, to be very competitive, 1092 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,799 Speaker 1: but I think Trevor Lawrence company get it done in 1093 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 1: the end. Well. 1094 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 2: I think the running games could be big today with ATM. 1095 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 2: I think he's going to get it done. And they 1096 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 2: see it now, and you know better than anybody else 1097 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 2: that Trevor Lawrence's knee look pretty good last week. Get 1098 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 2: that bad knee, so I think that's going to help 1099 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 2: with the offense and the average a season high almost 1100 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 2: ten air yards per attempt and that went over the Titans, 1101 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 2: So I think, you know, they probably are the favorites. 1102 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:31,280 Speaker 3: But I like c J. Stroud. 1103 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:32,879 Speaker 2: He said he's my favorite. I like to see him 1104 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 2: win the MVP as well as Rookie Offensive Rookie of 1105 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 2: the Year this year, and there's a possibility he might. 1106 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,400 Speaker 1: Man, look at you just giving away to HeartWare. Just 1107 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 1: giving away to heartwear kind of gets some love. 1108 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 3: I mean what happened yesterday right. 1109 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 1: Just giving out the HeartWare every everywhere. Yeah, I'm trying 1110 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: to look he deserves it. He's already going to be 1111 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: the offensive rookie of the year. But now if they 1112 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: continue to win. He continued to play like he's playing. 1113 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 1: He's warranted back door his way into that conversation as MVP. 1114 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 3: There you go, all right? 1115 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 2: The Buccaneers at the Indianapolis Colts today, the Colts and 1116 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 2: I talked about being picky. The Colts have intercepted eleven 1117 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 2: passes this year. That's tied for fourth most in the 1118 00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:15,560 Speaker 2: NFL this year, and that's one more than they had 1119 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,880 Speaker 2: the entire season last year. Baker Mayfield the quarterback for 1120 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 2: the Bucks. He's thrown interceptions in six of his last 1121 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 2: eight games, including each of the last two. I got 1122 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 2: to ask you what happened to Baker Mayfield. I don't 1123 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 2: even see him doing those insurance commercials anymore. He's off 1124 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 2: and he's gone. What happened to beg of Mayfield? 1125 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 3: Really? 1126 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 2: The days have been sticking a flag of midfield are 1127 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:37,760 Speaker 2: over right. He's finished. 1128 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it hasn't worked out well for him. It 1129 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 1: hasn't been a great look for him, trying to get 1130 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 1: everything done. Some of that his fault. Some of that 1131 00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: is the roster that he is playing and playing with 1132 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: down in Tampa. I mean, maybe slightly flawed. It's just 1133 00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: an older group on the perimeter in terms of Mike 1134 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 1: as is older. Godwin was coming off the injury. So 1135 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: it's very good. It's good to very good, just not great. 1136 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: And some of that is because the physical skills are 1137 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 1: diminishing from there were players. But let's see, man, I 1138 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: just love all these games. I love seeing these scenes 1139 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: from Pete. 1140 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 2: Let me ask you about Baker Mayfield. I mean, is 1141 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,759 Speaker 2: it his skills diminishing? Is it the teams that he's 1142 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,919 Speaker 2: been on. Is he not qualified to be a top 1143 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 2: NFL quarterback? 1144 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:29,880 Speaker 3: Is he finish? Is he going downhill? 1145 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,799 Speaker 2: Because you know, everything was pointing in his direction when 1146 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 2: he played at Oklahoma, he was great. I remember when 1147 00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:37,920 Speaker 2: they played Ohio State, he stuck that flag of midfield. 1148 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 2: You know, he was a hero, everybody's darling. Everybody loved him. 1149 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 2: Now you can't find them anywhere, can't find them, you know, 1150 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 2: on a missing player's sheet. I mean honestly, again, he 1151 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 2: did like every commercial that was on TV. 1152 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:51,919 Speaker 3: He's doing nothing now. 1153 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the luxury sometimes playing and leaving 1154 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,719 Speaker 1: and number one overall pick. You can do nothing, but 1155 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: he wants to play, to play well. It's been unfortunate 1156 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 1: for him that he's been in bad situations. Caroline was 1157 00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: not a great situation for him. The Rams, he was 1158 00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:08,239 Speaker 1: a backup to Matthew Stafford, showed a little promise, but 1159 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,400 Speaker 1: not enough where he could win. 1160 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:12,760 Speaker 4: A job elsewhere. 1161 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: So now he's kind of stuck in this perritory down 1162 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 1: in Tampa. They're trying to rebuild the team while flipping 1163 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 1: the team with younger people and just trying to get 1164 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 1: your arms around it. And so because they haven't been 1165 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 1: able to kind of clearly think through it put a 1166 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: plan in place, that's why they kind of stuck in neutral. 1167 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 2: Okay, question I have for you because I'm a big 1168 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick fan and Patriots fan. If Baker Mayfield was 1169 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 2: under center for the Patriots, obviously, I gotta believe he's 1170 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 2: a better quarterback than Mac Jones. Would they have a 1171 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,760 Speaker 2: little more success to the New England Patriots of Baker Mayfield. 1172 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if they would have more success. I 1173 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,399 Speaker 1: think it might look a little differently, but I don't 1174 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: know if they would. I can't confidently say that they 1175 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: would have more success. They've been a pretty successful program. 1176 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 1: The thing that you worry is, you know they don't 1177 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 1: have enough weapons or fire prower on the outside, and 1178 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 1: could Baker elevate that. I would say no, because he 1179 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: hasn't been able to do it in a previous situation. 1180 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 1: He's a game manager, plus being a really good game manager, 1181 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: but you have to make sure he has to write 1182 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: weapons around to build on a team that he sees 1183 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 1: that he wants to go. 1184 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:23,439 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, So who do you like today in that game? 1185 00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 2: I think I kind of. 1186 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 3: Like the Buccaneers. 1187 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:27,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I go with the Bugs. 1188 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 4: I go to bo Yeah. 1189 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 2: I think a big game today. Perhaps the receiver Mike Evans. 1190 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:35,840 Speaker 2: Mike Evans will have a day today. Perhaps the Buccaneers 1191 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 2: do have bid The Buccaneers do have a bid pass defense, 1192 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,080 Speaker 2: but I still think they're better than the Indianapolis Colts. 1193 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 3: I think Bucks win that game. All right, we agree 1194 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 3: on that, all right. 1195 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 2: He's Bucket Brooks on Ady Firm, and we are Fox Football. 1196 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 2: So on the and Fox Bot's ready.

That's right around the corner. 1213 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,399 Speaker 2: He is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furmer. We are Fox 1214 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 2: Football Sunday at Fox Sports Ready on Buck. We've got 1215 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 2: a caller wants to talk to you. His name is John. 1216 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 2: He's from Boston. 1217 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:45,239 Speaker 4: John. 1218 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 3: You're on Fox Sports Ready. 1219 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:47,040 Speaker 6: Hello? 1220 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 3: John? Is John there? I thought John's j in your 1221 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:51,360 Speaker 3: opinion on this? 1222 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 8: What I would do, guys is it's inevitable. That they're 1223 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 8: going to go to eighteen games. I mean it's more 1224 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 8: money for the owners, more money for the players. They're 1225 00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 8: going to go to eighteen games. What I would do 1226 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,919 Speaker 8: is that eighteen game games twenty weeks, give every team 1227 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,759 Speaker 8: two bye weeks. One of those bye weeks should be 1228 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 8: before their Thursday night appearance, So if you're playing on 1229 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 8: Thursday night, you don't play the Sunday before. That would 1230 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 8: make the product better on Thursday nights. And again you 1231 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 8: stretch the season out a little bit so that the 1232 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 8: super Bowl would be played the Sunday before President's Day. 1233 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 8: Most people are off on President's Day, so go have 1234 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 8: a good time party, enjoy the super Bowl. You don't 1235 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 8: have to bang in sick for work. I think it 1236 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 8: would be a solution that all sides would be on 1237 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 8: because of the money factor, and also getting that second 1238 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,320 Speaker 8: bye week, I think would be great for the players. 1239 00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 3: John, you shouldn't be calling us, You should be calling 1240 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 3: Roger Goodell. What do you think about that, Bucky Brooks? 1241 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,440 Speaker 4: No, I think at some point you have to move it. 1242 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 1: You have to move it so you give the players 1243 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 1: a chance to be available. If you move the eighteen games, 1244 00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:47,399 Speaker 1: you probably need to cut the preseason. Now have two 1245 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,439 Speaker 1: by weeks, so you can get it played while still 1246 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 1: taking care of the players. 1247 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 2: Great call, Great call, guys, thinking, I love that we 1248 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 2: have intelligent calls. We'll get a lot, but the ones 1249 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 2: we get somewhat intelligent. I gotta believe is IQ is 1250 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 2: a approaching three digits? How do you think about that? 1251 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 3: Fuck? 1252 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 1: What do you think? 1253 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 4: I mean, I love it? 1254 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, there we go. All right. 1255 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 2: Browns are playing the Broncos today and last Sunday. Brown's 1256 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 2: defensive end Miles Garrett, obviously the defensive player of the 1257 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 2: year hands down, had two more sacks, leading the league 1258 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 2: at thirteen. 1259 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 3: He's certainly a wrecking ball. There's no doubt about that. Now. 1260 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 2: The Broncos started the season on one three, and remember 1261 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 2: they gave up seventy points to the Miami Dolphins. 1262 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 3: They are turning it around. How are they turning it around? 1263 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 3: Bucky Brooks? 1264 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I think with anything like playing better and 1265 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 1: being able to kind of get your team right, it's confidence. 1266 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: Like confidence brings about different execution, and when you start 1267 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 1: to have a little success, that little success can kind 1268 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 1: of turn into a wildfire. 1269 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:51,960 Speaker 4: And that's what we've seen. 1270 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 1: We've seen this team gain a lot of confidence that 1271 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 1: bond into what the coaches are saying, and because of that, 1272 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 1: they're beginning to get better results on the field. It's 1273 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: kind of the chicken in the debate. What happens first, 1274 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 1: you know, is the egg or the chicken. Do you 1275 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,320 Speaker 1: get the confidence before you get results, or do you 1276 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 1: get results and you begin to gain the confidence. And 1277 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 1: I think we've seen a little bit of both in 1278 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 1: these situations. The coach was confident that he could fix it. 1279 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: The team eventually bought in and started doing it his way, 1280 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 1: and when they started having success, now they're all in. 1281 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1282 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 2: And I tell you what, I don't think the running 1283 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 2: game is gonna be too successful for the Broncos against 1284 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:24,320 Speaker 2: the Browns today. 1285 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 3: The Browns. 1286 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 2: I mentioned this coming up to the segment about penalties 1287 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 2: and points. The Browns have won three games this year 1288 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:36,080 Speaker 2: without scoring an offensive touchdown. That's an amazing stat I thought. 1289 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 2: And their quarterback t R Thompson Robinson, he'll have to 1290 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 2: do some short passing to get that win. I think 1291 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 2: they'll win. I think they're a better team. But I 1292 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 2: gave a lot of credit to Sean Payton. He is 1293 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,120 Speaker 2: basically turning that team around, and look they got a 1294 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 2: sniff at the playoffs. They're five and five the Broncos. 1295 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're Russell Wilson is playing better. They're 1296 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,040 Speaker 1: doing it great. Sean Payge's done a really good job 1297 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 1: of managing the game, changing the play calls to make 1298 00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 1: sure that he protects the defense while protecting the quarterback 1299 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 1: and putting it all together. Took him about half the season, 1300 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 1: which is common, to figure out what he had in 1301 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 1: his team and his best players, how can I get 1302 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: my best players off? And we have seen since that 1303 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: nearing the midway point, they played really really good football. 1304 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 1: So heads off to Sean Payton and the staff for 1305 00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 1: figuring it out. 1306 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,000 Speaker 3: I like Sean Payton. I like him a lot. 1307 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 2: I'd like to see the Broncos win. I don't think 1308 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 2: they will. I think the Browns defensively are just a 1309 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 2: better team. They put a lot of pressure on the 1310 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 2: Broncos today. But for several reasons. Number one, I'm a 1311 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals fan, so obviously I like to see the 1312 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 2: Browns lose. And number two, I'm a Sean Payton fan, 1313 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 2: and he's a big fan of Skyline Chili and Cincinnati 1314 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 2: and story wing that win way back when. 1315 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 3: I don't think you like that. 1316 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 2: I know, but I asked to be on my sports 1317 00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 2: talk show way back when when I was doing local 1318 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 2: radio in Cincinnati, and he said that he would come 1319 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 2: on if I set them a case of Skyline Chili. 1320 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 3: And I did, and he came on with me. So 1321 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 3: he's a good man. I like Sean Payte, and he 1322 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,880 Speaker 3: coached at Miami University, and I'll so, how do you 1323 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,160 Speaker 3: like that? So a lot of local ties they would 1324 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 3: shot Payton, I like I do. 1325 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy, greater credle of coaches, credible university. 1326 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 3: When I yet, when I mentioned Skyline Chili, kind of, 1327 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 3: I just have you tried it? 1328 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 1: You like it? I've tried it. I think it's an 1329 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 1: acquired taste. Yeah, I think I fall in the camp 1330 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 1: of Joe Burrow when it comes to Skyline Chile. Joe 1331 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 1: Burrow thought one way before he became a Bengal. He 1332 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: thought another way after he became a Bengal. So if 1333 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 1: the Bengals want to slide a few coins by way, 1334 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 1: I'll probably be far more favorable in my review of 1335 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 1: Skyline Chili right now, I'm just like it's an acquired taste. 1336 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 1: I think it's a local delicacy more so than a 1337 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 1: national delicacy. 1338 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 4: There you go. 1339 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 3: I love the acquired taste. 1340 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 1: There you go. 1341 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 2: Rams at the Cardinals today totally yards unless Sunday's. 1342 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 3: Ram Seahawks games. 1343 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 2: See I let two ninety one, Rams had two sixty 1344 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 2: seven and there were more combined penalties twenty one than 1345 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 2: points and won that game seventeen sixteen. So today's game 1346 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:07,560 Speaker 2: would be very interesting. Although Rams Cardinals Cards have played 1347 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 2: a little better with with the quarterback change right now, 1348 01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 2: but I don't see them beating the Rams. I mean, 1349 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,439 Speaker 2: this is one of those games I wouldn't mind missing. Really, 1350 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:18,320 Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind. 1351 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 1: You know what. 1352 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:23,720 Speaker 3: I would see a Division two, a lower class college 1353 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 3: football game over this game, A MAC Conference game, Mid 1354 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,959 Speaker 3: American Conference game. Watch. I'd watched that over a Rams 1355 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 3: Cardinals game. I don't know about you, but I would. 1356 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 4: You watch what over this game? 1357 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 1: You watching? Man? 1358 01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, like I watched Tiledo Miami of Ohio, Ohio. 1359 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 2: You I watch any of those teams play over this game? 1360 01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: Wow? I mean that's a lot. That's a lot. I 1361 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 1: understand why. But the Rams are playing better than people 1362 01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,040 Speaker 1: give them credit for. And the Cardinals have been surprisingly 1363 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 1: competitive with Caler Murray at quarterback. It's a look, it's 1364 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 1: this not gonna be the best game. It should be 1365 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 1: the Marquee game. But you got to tune in, make 1366 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:08,960 Speaker 1: sure your fantasy team is doing right. You get some 1367 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 1: of these players, but you I can't just say that 1368 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 1: I would watch any Mac game over this. It might 1369 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: be maybe the Mac Championship, maybe a special Tuesday night 1370 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 1: Macaction deal, but not any game. You know. 1371 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:27,600 Speaker 2: I'm glad you mentioned you got to tune in because 1372 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 2: of your fantasy team. I just realize right now the 1373 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 2: light went off in my small mind that fantasy football 1374 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 2: brings so many people to the table following the National 1375 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 2: Football League, and those people basically, you know, I'm not 1376 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 2: great football fans, but they get involved because of fantasy football. 1377 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 2: And there have been times when I'll go to a 1378 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 2: ball game and I'll see the Bengals playing another team 1379 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 2: and a running back on the other team goes for 1380 01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 2: some big yardage and people are really apploying. The guys said, well, 1381 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 2: that's that's nice. That's the respect. Now all of a 1382 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 2: sudden say no, they're not doing it for respect. They 1383 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 2: probably had that guy in the Fantasy League. That's why 1384 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 2: they're doing it. 1385 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, Fantasy has certainly changed everything, you know, 1386 01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean they changed everything when it comes to that. 1387 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 2: Tremendously grew the fan base, is no doubt about that. 1388 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,360 Speaker 2: I know they tried it years ago in baseball. You 1389 01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:23,439 Speaker 2: can't do it in baseball. Too many games. You can't 1390 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 2: keep on doing that stuff every day, updating it every day, 1391 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 2: you'll go crazy. Football is perfect, you know, once a week, 1392 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 2: there's only seventeen eighteen games, whatever it may be. And 1393 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 2: that's fine, and it works out well. It's the only 1394 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,040 Speaker 2: sport world works. You can't do it a baseball and 1395 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 2: you certainly can't do it in basketball. 1396 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 4: No, So you can't do that. 1397 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: No, I just work out. 1398 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 4: I mean it's different basketball. 1399 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's too many games to keep up with. 1400 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 1: You got to keep your lineups. Football is kind of 1401 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,040 Speaker 1: like the rice feet. Once a week. Pay attention to 1402 01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:52,919 Speaker 1: what's going on in those things. 1403 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and speaking of basketball, you know, if they're smart, 1404 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 2: Adam Silva, I know you're not listening now, you're probably sleeping. 1405 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 2: Do me a favor from that one. Start the season 1406 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 2: Christmas Day. You know, no one's following the NBA right now. 1407 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 2: You're dwarfed because of the NFL. You'll never beat the NFL. 1408 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,520 Speaker 2: I don't care how many in season tournaments you want 1409 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 2: to have. It's not gonna work. Start the season Christmas Day, 1410 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 2: that's what you gotta do. 1411 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 3: We move on. You're taking the Rams over the Cars. 1412 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:20,080 Speaker 3: I guess Buck, I. 1413 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 1: Am taking the Rams up the Cardinal. This is a 1414 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 1: good game, always a competitive game. As long as Matthew 1415 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 1: Stafford is healthy. I'm rocking with the Rams. 1416 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 3: All right, here we go, these Bucky Brooks and Andy Furrman. 1417 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 2: We are Fox Football Sunday and Fox Bus Ready to 1418 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:36,160 Speaker 2: now did anything really change?

But the top teams winning 1449 01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:22,840 Speaker 7: on a Saturday that includes topering Georgia. They're now twelve 1450 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 7: to zero with a thirty one to twenty three win 1451 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 7: at Georgia Tech in the Iron Bowl, an absolute heartbreaker 1452 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,520 Speaker 7: for Auburn. Alabama fourth and goal from the thirty one 1453 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,800 Speaker 7: they get the touchdown pass to give themselves a twenty 1454 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 7: seven to twenty four win against Auburn and puts themselves 1455 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,480 Speaker 7: in the SEC Championship game, where they will face the 1456 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 7: Georgia Bulldogs, who are winners of twenty nine straight Big 1457 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 7: Ten and number three Michigan over their heated rival number 1458 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 7: two Ohio State thirty to twenty four. It's the third 1459 01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 7: straight win in the series for the Wolverines, fifth win 1460 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 7: of the season without head coach Jim Harball on the 1461 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 7: side lines. He's had two separate suspensions he's had to serve, 1462 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 7: but it hasn't slowed down the Wolverines much so. It'll 1463 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 7: be a matchup of Iowa and Michigan next Saturday night 1464 01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 7: in the Big Ten Championship over on Fox. In the 1465 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,360 Speaker 7: PAC twelve the Apple Cup at least the last edition 1466 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:19,040 Speaker 7: where both members are members of the same conference. Number 1467 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 7: four Washington over Washington State twenty four to twenty one 1468 01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 7: on the last second field goals. So Friday night the 1469 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:28,480 Speaker 7: final PAC twelve title game, at least with this current composition, 1470 01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:32,440 Speaker 7: Huskies against the Oregon Ducks for likely what will be 1471 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:36,959 Speaker 7: a spot in the College Football Playoff. ACC Championship also 1472 01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 7: set after number five Florida State beats Florida twenty four 1473 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 7: to fifteen, and in spite of the fact that number 1474 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 7: ten Louisville loss at Kentucky thirty eight thirty one, so 1475 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 7: it'll be Florida State and Louisville in the ACC title game. 1476 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:51,439 Speaker 7: It was a snowy affair at number nineteen Kansas State 1477 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 7: and Iowa State beats the Wildcats forty two to thirty five. 1478 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:58,360 Speaker 7: Number twenty Oklahoma State a double overtime win against BYU 1479 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 7: forty to thirty four. The Big twelve Championship will be 1480 01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 7: Oklahoma State and Texas, And you got to imagine several 1481 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 7: members of that Big twelve hoping that the Cowboys can't 1482 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 7: get that one to send a parting shot for the Longhorns, 1483 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 7: as they had to the SEC. 1484 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 3: Bowl eligibility tracker. 1485 01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:18,760 Speaker 7: If you include James Madison and Jacksonville State, they're now 1486 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 7: eighty one bull eligible teams for eighty two spots. So 1487 01:08:22,360 --> 01:08:24,759 Speaker 7: it remains to be seen which Lucky five and seventeen 1488 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 7: we'll get to go bowling this season. Back to you guys, 1489 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 7: all right. 1490 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:29,719 Speaker 2: Thanks keV. By, by the way, where's the offense?

That the Ken 1506 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:12,080 Speaker 3: Dorsey the other day. What changed? What change after you 1507 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 3: got fired? 1508 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 2: Nowt the Bills did put up thirty two points with 1509 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 2: Joe Brady, theoc Buffalo's most points since Week four. They 1510 01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 2: also put up three hundred and ninety three yards. But really, 1511 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:24,439 Speaker 2: I think Bucky Brooks, they just played better, and that 1512 01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 2: was against the Jets, So I don't think that means much. 1513 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, they played better, but I mean, sometimes man a 1514 01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,600 Speaker 1: different voice. Everyone is on alert because what happens is 1515 01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:37,479 Speaker 1: after you start firing coaches, the next one to go players. 1516 01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 1: So players understand that. Players understand that the domino started 1517 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:43,519 Speaker 1: the fall, because when you look around the Bills organization 1518 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 1: over the last year, they lost their defensive coordinator and 1519 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:50,599 Speaker 1: Leslie Fresher, Leslie Fraser who left the team to take 1520 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 1: care of his health and kind of rejuvenate, recharge and 1521 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 1: get back, and then you lose your offensive coordinator. So 1522 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,000 Speaker 1: everyone knows that the pressure is on the team to 1523 01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 1: play at a higher level or they'll be subject to 1524 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 1: being bounced and removed in those things. And so sometimes 1525 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 1: that brings about a different level of urgency, better focus, 1526 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 1: and a different play caller will kind of approach the 1527 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,080 Speaker 1: game a little differently. Joe Brady tried to put the 1528 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 1: ball in Josh Allen sands. We saw a better commitment 1529 01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:18,680 Speaker 1: to the running game and it worked out. The key 1530 01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:21,519 Speaker 1: will be what does it look like the next two, three, 1531 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:24,479 Speaker 1: four weeks. Once people now get a hold of how 1532 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:28,799 Speaker 1: Joe Brady plays with this offense, they'll begin to adjust 1533 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,840 Speaker 1: to what his preferences and tendencies are, and then king 1534 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:35,680 Speaker 1: he adapt to how people adapt to him. It's the 1535 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:37,600 Speaker 1: ying and the yanet is the chess match that we 1536 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 1: see every week. 1537 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 2: Okay, the Eagles are coming off that emotional winning as 1538 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 2: the Chiefs, but they were out gaining that game three 1539 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:46,280 Speaker 2: thirty six, two thirty eight. But I got to believe 1540 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,680 Speaker 2: that it's a new offensive buffalo, as you mentioned, and 1541 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 2: if they have no turnovers, which is difficult for Josh Allen, 1542 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 2: they could probably win this game. But I gotta believe 1543 01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:56,240 Speaker 2: also with the Eagles beating the Chiefs, that could fire 1544 01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:59,040 Speaker 2: this team up and take them scarward. Or maybe there's 1545 01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 2: a let I don't you know. You're an athlete, you 1546 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 2: know how it works. How does it work after a 1547 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 2: big emotional win like that which they had over the 1548 01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 2: Chiefs the other day. Do they just coast and say, hey, look, 1549 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 2: pound my chest, we're great, and you kind of falter 1550 01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:13,479 Speaker 2: and you get hit and it's kind of a trap 1551 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:15,560 Speaker 2: game with the Bills, or you just take off in 1552 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:17,160 Speaker 2: skyrocket and just keep on rolling. 1553 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:20,560 Speaker 1: Man, You never know. Like it wasn't an emotionally and 1554 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:22,919 Speaker 1: they poured a lot into it. You saw Nick Sirianni 1555 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:25,360 Speaker 1: took the victory lap and those things. So it's a 1556 01:11:25,400 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 1: tough game. It's a trap game for him. They got 1557 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:29,880 Speaker 1: to be locked in and focused on doing the right things. 1558 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,679 Speaker 1: We'll see if they can do it. Man, it's easier 1559 01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:34,840 Speaker 1: said than done. Coaches can issue out those warners. But 1560 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:37,800 Speaker 1: the natural thing is natural Tennessee, is after you have 1561 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,160 Speaker 1: a big win like that, you take a deep breath, 1562 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 1: and that's when you're vulnerable to get knocked off. 1563 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 4: There you go. 1564 01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 2: Now, Chiefs are playing at the Raiders today. About those Chiefs, 1565 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:50,160 Speaker 2: the Raiders are three and seventeen against the Chiefs since 1566 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 2: Andy Reid took over in twenty thirteen. 1567 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:54,360 Speaker 3: What does that mean? 1568 01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:57,240 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously different ball players or whatever it may be, 1569 01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 2: but still in all someone has to reach realize that 1570 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:01,439 Speaker 2: and it's not good. 1571 01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 3: That's not a good thing. Sometimes. 1572 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,680 Speaker 2: I guess when the Raiders see that Chiefs uniform, they 1573 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 2: just melt. That's basically what's happening. 1574 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 1: The Chiefs just have a ton of confidence in playing 1575 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,439 Speaker 1: that team. There's certain teams that you just know that 1576 01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,760 Speaker 1: you match up with, regardless of the coach, you just 1577 01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 1: know you have a good feel for we play them, 1578 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 1: and this is what we do. We win. You have 1579 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:22,839 Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of confidence, very similar to the confidence 1580 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 1: that Michigan has right now with Ohio State. They know 1581 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 1: that they can beat them. They know that if it 1582 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 1: gets into a tight situation, they'll figure it out and 1583 01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:36,400 Speaker 1: they'll win. That confidence is everything, and it's the difference 1584 01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:38,680 Speaker 1: differ between the Chiefs and the Raiders right now. 1585 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 2: Okay, I got to give you a little more information though. 1586 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:43,720 Speaker 2: Even though the Raiders are three and seventeen against the Chiefs, 1587 01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 2: iss Reed took over and I was back in twenty thirteen. 1588 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:50,840 Speaker 2: All those three wins came when Kansas City was on 1589 01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 2: a short week, and this week is a short week 1590 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 2: after the Chiefs lost to the Eagles Monday night. Whatever 1591 01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 2: that means, all right, and the Chiefs. We talked about 1592 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,559 Speaker 2: the offense and asked Bucky earlier today. The Chiefs has 1593 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 2: scored the fewest second half touchdowns in the NFL five 1594 01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:10,759 Speaker 2: and they've gone scoreless half to halftime in three straight games. 1595 01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,720 Speaker 2: There's a possibility here of a letdown. I don't think so. 1596 01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,120 Speaker 2: I think the Chiefs are just a better ball club. 1597 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 2: But I would not be surprised if the Raiders beat 1598 01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:27,400 Speaker 2: the Chiefs today. Oh WHOA, I got what I'm hearing 1599 01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 2: now is that you would be surprised, maybe. 1600 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,559 Speaker 1: A little bit. I may be a little surprised, might 1601 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,200 Speaker 1: be a little surprised. But if they do this, that 1602 01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:39,840 Speaker 1: would be a terrific way for Antonio appears to lock 1603 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:41,280 Speaker 1: in on that job. 1604 01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:45,560 Speaker 3: Right, But you're still not You're not buying it. 1605 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 1: You know, I can't. I'm not taking I'm not taking them. 1606 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:50,240 Speaker 1: I think I think the Chiefs bounce back. They're not 1607 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,439 Speaker 1: playing the greatest. It hasn't been their best has been 1608 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:57,920 Speaker 1: their best work. But look, I'll give them credit for 1609 01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: being able to improve under him, and like A Pierce 1610 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:04,760 Speaker 1: has done a really good job of getting the team 1611 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:05,240 Speaker 1: ready to play. 1612 01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:06,360 Speaker 4: I think they're gonna battle. 1613 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 1: And compete but if he wins this one, oh yeah, 1614 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:10,680 Speaker 1: it goes back in his favor in terms of being 1615 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,519 Speaker 1: able to get the job right. 1616 01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:13,760 Speaker 3: And I will say this much. 1617 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:17,040 Speaker 2: The raiders top two quarterbacks are at the bottom two 1618 01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 2: an interception percentage in the National Football League, which doesn't 1619 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,800 Speaker 2: bode well for the Raiders the games at home. There's 1620 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:28,559 Speaker 2: a possibility, you know, I'm sure Antonio appears is saying, look, 1621 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 2: you know they're coming in, they're limping a little bit, 1622 01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:33,599 Speaker 2: they're lost to the Eagles. We got a shot. Let's 1623 01:14:33,640 --> 01:14:36,800 Speaker 2: attack them, attack them fast and early. I don't see 1624 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 2: it happening, but I wouldn't be surprised. I really would 1625 01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 2: not be surprised because that lack of offense is basically 1626 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:46,759 Speaker 2: the downfall of his Chiefs ball club, and they're winning 1627 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:47,719 Speaker 2: by defense. 1628 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:49,439 Speaker 3: Their defense is carrying this ball club. 1629 01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:52,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, the defense is can the ball club, but the 1630 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:54,519 Speaker 1: defense is good enough to get them there. I think 1631 01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 1: we have to adjust our eyes to what we're seeing 1632 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 1: from the Chiefs. We're so used to seeing the team 1633 01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:04,200 Speaker 1: that was kind of driven by their offense. How they 1634 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 1: were high flying, they were exciting, they were throwing it 1635 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 1: all over the yard and doing those things. Different team 1636 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:11,759 Speaker 1: but it's natural for teams to go through these cycles. 1637 01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 1: They had like a five year run where they were 1638 01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:16,120 Speaker 1: kind of like the circus, you know, everyone wanted to 1639 01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:19,200 Speaker 1: come to town see them light it up and dazzling. 1640 01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:21,320 Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes doing this thing. He still does that, but 1641 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 1: they couldn't retain all that talent. What they've become is 1642 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:28,080 Speaker 1: a more balanced team with the defense being able to 1643 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,679 Speaker 1: kind of hold this on because before those defenses were terrible. 1644 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:33,280 Speaker 1: And as long as the defense is playing at the 1645 01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:36,320 Speaker 1: level that they're playing, Andy Reid will have enough time 1646 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:38,879 Speaker 1: to figure out how to win games with the offense 1647 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 1: that he has, it'll look different. The games will be tight, 1648 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:43,599 Speaker 1: or the scores would be lower, maybe a little more 1649 01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: run centric as we get down the stretch. But as 1650 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:48,559 Speaker 1: long as they keep stacking dubs and if they get 1651 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:52,040 Speaker 1: home field, man, it's the same problem that everyone has 1652 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,560 Speaker 1: with him.

You know, their record all time from eighteen 1793 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:26,120 Speaker 2: eighty seven till today is four ninety three, six ninety five, 1794 01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 2: and forty five. And there's only like two coaches that 1795 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:32,640 Speaker 2: have won winning records. I mean that that's unbelievable. A 1796 01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 2: guy named James N. 1797 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,760 Speaker 3: Shelton nineteen oh five to nineteen thirteen, he coached nine years, 1798 01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:40,080 Speaker 3: had a record at thirty five, twenty six and three. 1799 01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 3: How is that possible? 1800 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,519 Speaker 2: Because I'm thinking like guys like Jerry Denado, who grew 1801 01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 2: up on my neighborhood in Brooklyn, played at Saint Francis 1802 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 2: Prep and Brooklyn Jerry Denaudo a good friend. He was 1803 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:53,679 Speaker 2: eight and twenty seven as a coach. Cam Cameron eighteen 1804 01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 2: and thirty seven, Bill Mallory sixty nine and seventy seven, 1805 01:22:57,600 --> 01:22:59,840 Speaker 2: the late Sam Wis three and eight in one year. 1806 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:02,760 Speaker 2: And Leak Corso. I love Leake Corso, but he was 1807 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,479 Speaker 2: forty one and sixty eight. How does that happen? How 1808 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 2: does that happen in one school? 1809 01:23:09,439 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 1: Man? I just think it's hard. I just think it's 1810 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:14,120 Speaker 1: hard at a place there, Like I think it's the 1811 01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 1: challenge of being at a basketball school and trying to 1812 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:22,080 Speaker 1: figure out a way to create an identity while being 1813 01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:25,320 Speaker 1: overshadowed by let's call it like the Bobby and a 1814 01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:29,479 Speaker 1: basketball program was everything, and there are two ways to 1815 01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:31,759 Speaker 1: do it. Having gone to North Carolina where Dean Smith 1816 01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:33,920 Speaker 1: and the basketball team was everything, you got to embrace 1817 01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:37,120 Speaker 1: the basketball team's success and make that a part of 1818 01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 1: what you do when it comes to football. So when 1819 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 1: you bring the recruits, and it has to be when 1820 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:43,920 Speaker 1: the basketball team is playing Duke or whatever, so you 1821 01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:46,720 Speaker 1: can get that atmosphere and field and they can feel that, 1822 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 1: and then you talk to them about we want to 1823 01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:52,040 Speaker 1: create that on football like they have at basketball and 1824 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:54,600 Speaker 1: at Indiana. They just haven't been able to do it. 1825 01:23:54,760 --> 01:23:57,559 Speaker 1: And I'll be honest, where's the recruiting base? I mean, 1826 01:23:57,920 --> 01:23:59,760 Speaker 1: most of the time, when you take a program, you 1827 01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:02,439 Speaker 1: want to put a fence around the state. I don't 1828 01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:04,559 Speaker 1: know how many prominent football players come from the state 1829 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,080 Speaker 1: of Indiana. So do they go to Chicago? Do they 1830 01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,320 Speaker 1: pil for from Wisconsin? Where are they going to get 1831 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 1: their players to give them? I don't know. Just a 1832 01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 1: chance to be able to compete against Ohio States and 1833 01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:18,479 Speaker 1: the Michigan's and some of the other programs and the 1834 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:20,120 Speaker 1: Big Ten. I think it's hard, and I think it's 1835 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 1: what you know, some of the other programs have to 1836 01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:26,080 Speaker 1: wrestle with, not only Indiana, Purdue Northwestern has the academic stuff, 1837 01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:29,880 Speaker 1: like it's one of those things. What is a realistic 1838 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:32,680 Speaker 1: level of success that you can have there when you 1839 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:35,200 Speaker 1: have the heavyweights that exist already in that conference. 1840 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:39,800 Speaker 7: That's a seven and five Northwestern team reclaiming the Lincoln's 1841 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:43,160 Speaker 7: Hat with the defeat of the fighting a line. 1842 01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 3: I put the chess back in stop sticking it out. 1843 01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:48,160 Speaker 7: No, I still have a lot of problems fundamentally with 1844 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 7: the way the program has handled things. This past year, 1845 01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:54,479 Speaker 7: they finally crawled out of their hole like they were 1846 01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 7: punk Satani Phil for crying out loud after becoming Bowl eligible. Oh, 1847 01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:01,120 Speaker 7: here's a statement from our our leadership. Where the hell 1848 01:25:01,160 --> 01:25:04,519 Speaker 7: have you been for three months? You hid, you fired 1849 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:07,320 Speaker 7: the coach, and then you ducked and covered a bunch 1850 01:25:07,360 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 7: of cowards. 1851 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:08,680 Speaker 1: Uh. 1852 01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:11,920 Speaker 7: Brian has done a great job. They put together how many. 1853 01:25:11,920 --> 01:25:14,479 Speaker 4: How many games? How many games do they how many 1854 01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 4: games do they win? 1855 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:16,200 Speaker 1: With Pat fishero this year? 1856 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 7: No, And we talked about this at the time, Bucky, right, 1857 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:21,880 Speaker 7: it was a nice convenient. Hey, the program's in the 1858 01:25:21,960 --> 01:25:24,840 Speaker 7: wrong direction and they've been terrible for a couple of years. 1859 01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:27,680 Speaker 7: So add this to it, we get to, you know, 1860 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 7: dust our hands and make a change now, right, So 1861 01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:34,760 Speaker 7: that how many would they have won? I don't know, 1862 01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 7: maybe you. 1863 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:40,920 Speaker 1: Think, yeah, I just wondered if if you thought they 1864 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:44,760 Speaker 1: would be primed to win regardless, and bron is just 1865 01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 1: kind of the beneficiary of I don't think it's a 1866 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:49,519 Speaker 1: right place, right time or whatever. 1867 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 7: So I think they took a little bit of the 1868 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:54,720 Speaker 7: mini Michigan kind of thing, right, because remember it was 1869 01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:59,559 Speaker 7: us against the world after fitz Fitzgerald go dismissed you had. 1870 01:25:59,600 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 1: The big has been very tumultuous this year. 1871 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 3: Oh lot of tumult look Indian. 1872 01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:05,960 Speaker 7: But the one thing you get saved for him here, 1873 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:09,040 Speaker 7: Andy is I don't think there's been any scandal there. 1874 01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:12,080 Speaker 7: They're one of like three Big ten teams that nobody's 1875 01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:14,680 Speaker 7: gotten to talk about, right, I mean, look from a 1876 01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:17,760 Speaker 7: football perspective, they haven't been relevant since Antoine Randall l 1877 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,320 Speaker 7: was running around and he joined the NFL in two 1878 01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:22,680 Speaker 7: thousand and two, and even then they were a five 1879 01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:25,479 Speaker 7: hundred team at best. But he was exciting, he was 1880 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,760 Speaker 7: electric and eventually goes to the Steelers and becomes a 1881 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:31,799 Speaker 7: mini slash kind of thing wide receiver. 1882 01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 1: Right. 1883 01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:33,720 Speaker 2: But you know, here's here's the question I had, And 1884 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:35,880 Speaker 2: maybe I'm way off based on this, but Bucket as 1885 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:37,559 Speaker 2: a former athlete, Well, no, you're an athlete. 1886 01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:38,800 Speaker 3: What do you an athlete? No, I'm not a film 1887 01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:39,240 Speaker 3: or athlete. 1888 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 2: But if you're a five star player in high school 1889 01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 2: and you're recruited by every school in the country and 1890 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,280 Speaker 2: you live maybe in Indiana, and they say this stuff, 1891 01:26:46,280 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 2: you know what, that school has never won. 1892 01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,320 Speaker 3: I could be the difference. I want to go there. 1893 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:52,360 Speaker 2: Why would I want to go to an Alabama where 1894 01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:54,720 Speaker 2: they win all the time, or or Georgia. Let me 1895 01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:56,600 Speaker 2: go to I mean, maybe that's the mindset that I 1896 01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:58,640 Speaker 2: would have if I was a five star guy, Like 1897 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 2: if I was a seven foot and basketball, I'd rather 1898 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 2: go to a small school and put them on the map. 1899 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 2: I like to go to the school like maybe a 1900 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:07,559 Speaker 2: Saint Bonaventure in New York and be like a bobb 1901 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:10,439 Speaker 2: leamir and carry them. Really, that's what I would do 1902 01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:12,679 Speaker 2: instead of going to a school that's always winning. 1903 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:17,320 Speaker 1: So here's the thing that used to be the mentality 1904 01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:19,320 Speaker 1: that a lot of people have. It used to be 1905 01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:21,800 Speaker 1: where I don't want to join the winners. I want 1906 01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:22,599 Speaker 1: to beat the winners. 1907 01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:23,320 Speaker 4: I want to grin. 1908 01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: It's changed now with parents and kids, they want to 1909 01:27:27,960 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 1: join the winner. So I would say coaches that are 1910 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 1: rebuilding programs have a harder time now because you have 1911 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:39,120 Speaker 1: to win with what you got until you're able to 1912 01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:42,200 Speaker 1: win with what you want to get. So you got 1913 01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:45,160 Speaker 1: to take the team that you inherit find a. 1914 01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:46,639 Speaker 4: Way to win with those guys. 1915 01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:50,160 Speaker 1: And two, you can get the model of players that 1916 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:54,479 Speaker 1: you want down the line. And it's the trick some 1917 01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:56,920 Speaker 1: people are able to navigate it and do it well. 1918 01:27:57,120 --> 01:28:01,599 Speaker 1: Others aren't. But not going to get your guys until 1919 01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:05,400 Speaker 1: you show those guys that you can win at the place, 1920 01:28:05,439 --> 01:28:08,720 Speaker 1: because they can't see it until it's already been done well. 1921 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 7: And let's face it, on sub level, with the rules 1922 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,960 Speaker 7: of engagement changing, when we get to this nil world, 1923 01:28:14,360 --> 01:28:17,240 Speaker 7: I could be the hot recruit, never see the field 1924 01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 7: for Alabama for two years and still put it away 1925 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:23,560 Speaker 7: at perhaps a considerable amount of coin as opposed to 1926 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:27,080 Speaker 7: the also rans, where the collectives and those efforts are 1927 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 7: probably lackluster at best as well, right because you don't 1928 01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 7: have that rallying around a program. Right. I don't know 1929 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 7: what the status of the booster contingent is there in Indiana, 1930 01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:44,640 Speaker 7: but I gotta imagine they're all still on the basketball 1931 01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:48,200 Speaker 7: side is in terms of their thinking and planning and 1932 01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:51,920 Speaker 7: everything else. To get them to switch and pivot towards 1933 01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:55,680 Speaker 7: football would be the first step in perhaps finding those 1934 01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:59,679 Speaker 7: five stars, keeping that or going into Chicago and other places. 1935 01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:03,360 Speaker 1: Coach, and I think the thing that you have to 1936 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:07,560 Speaker 1: identify is you got to identify people that love the university. 1937 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:11,280 Speaker 1: Either they grew up being basketball fans, you know, like 1938 01:29:11,439 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 1: there's some connection to the program where they're like, oh no, no, 1939 01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm coming here, regardless of how bad they are. 1940 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:19,960 Speaker 4: I've always wanted to go. 1941 01:29:20,120 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 1: I've always wondered where the Crimson and Cream or whatever 1942 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,360 Speaker 1: the colors are, you know, like I've always wanted to 1943 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:27,759 Speaker 1: where that. I didn't want to be spaking like because 1944 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:33,400 Speaker 1: like people take I mean, it would be like if 1945 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:37,160 Speaker 1: I said Northwestern Violet and you'd be like, no, we're 1946 01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:38,880 Speaker 1: fighting purple or whatever that is. 1947 01:29:39,040 --> 01:29:41,559 Speaker 3: But I'm just saying you want a swinging breaker. 1948 01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:46,320 Speaker 7: Watching Survivor series, man, see I'm punk is back and 1949 01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:47,760 Speaker 7: so am I come on let's go. 1950 01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:48,920 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1951 01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:51,600 Speaker 1: So it's uh like, if you can find people that 1952 01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:54,000 Speaker 1: are vested like that, then you can do it. And 1953 01:29:54,040 --> 01:29:56,439 Speaker 1: then you just have to have recruiters that can really 1954 01:29:56,680 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 1: sell division. I mean we saw PJ. Fleck had success 1955 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:03,479 Speaker 1: up in Minnesota being able to do it. But it's 1956 01:30:04,240 --> 01:30:07,320 Speaker 1: you know, at those programs, I think it's hard to 1957 01:30:07,439 --> 01:30:11,880 Speaker 1: be eight wins are more year after year after year 1958 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 1: after year. I think you have a couple of those 1959 01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 1: over eight wins, then you come back and reset. Then 1960 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,800 Speaker 1: you have to build it back up to that point 1961 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 1: and everyone has to know that ad. 1962 01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:24,519 Speaker 4: And those things. 1963 01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:26,720 Speaker 1: Hey man, it's we won't to always be in the mix, 1964 01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:28,000 Speaker 1: but I don't know if we can to always be 1965 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:29,479 Speaker 1: in the mix like like that. 1966 01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:31,720 Speaker 2: Well, you know what at a school they used to 1967 01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:33,280 Speaker 2: be in the mix all the time was Nebraska. What 1968 01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:35,880 Speaker 2: happened to that school? They finished five and seven this year. 1969 01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:39,679 Speaker 4: Well, that's because Nebraska lost their identity. 1970 01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:42,960 Speaker 1: And look their ad Steve Patterson when he made the 1971 01:30:43,040 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 1: move to fire Frank Soliz and hired Bill Callahan, stup 1972 01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:49,920 Speaker 1: ended it ended whatever they are because the cities solds. 1973 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:51,880 Speaker 3: He won nine games, he got fired. He won nine 1974 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:52,559 Speaker 3: games that year. 1975 01:30:52,760 --> 01:30:54,800 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he always winning nine or ten games. 1976 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:56,680 Speaker 1: Then goes to Ohio and becomes I think the all 1977 01:30:56,760 --> 01:31:00,240 Speaker 1: time winner at Ohio University doing the same stuffy run 1978 01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:03,000 Speaker 1: into option. They had an identity, they did all that both. 1979 01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:05,920 Speaker 1: Pallini was the king of nine and four while he 1980 01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 1: was there. But they just haven't been able to re 1981 01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:11,120 Speaker 1: establish that brand because this is whole generation of kids. 1982 01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:11,760 Speaker 1: They don't even know. 1983 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:15,160 Speaker 7: That Nebraska was ever a powerhouse. Which is track, but 1984 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:18,519 Speaker 7: that's it. With the changing of conferences, it's a pretty 1985 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:22,840 Speaker 7: big deal. Right last night they put the final I 1986 01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 7: don't want to go full dark on a Sunday morning. 1987 01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:29,639 Speaker 7: But they put the final bullet in the PAC twelve network. 1988 01:31:29,920 --> 01:31:31,519 Speaker 7: And did you see how they did this? You gotta 1989 01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:33,960 Speaker 7: see the memes that were going around. They had graphics 1990 01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:36,880 Speaker 7: for the UCLA touchdown score at the start of that 1991 01:31:36,960 --> 01:31:42,679 Speaker 7: game that had first name, last name, x X yard run. 1992 01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:45,240 Speaker 7: That was what the graphics said as the guy was 1993 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:51,000 Speaker 7: celebrating in the end zone. There was no name, no descriptors, 1994 01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:54,120 Speaker 7: no history, no nothing. That was the graphic put up 1995 01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:56,920 Speaker 7: for a player. That is the fitting end to the 1996 01:31:57,080 --> 01:32:01,920 Speaker 7: disaster that Larry Scott and company presided over these last years. 1997 01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:06,879 Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, you're talking about just messing up in esteemed tradition. 1998 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: To think about like the Pack eight then before it 1999 01:32:10,240 --> 01:32:12,519 Speaker 1: expanded to the PAC ten and twelve and all the 2000 01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:15,839 Speaker 1: other iterations, but to think about how that was everything 2001 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:18,200 Speaker 1: to be able to watch those games, because they always 2002 01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 1: would have a UCLA game at the Rose Bowl on 2003 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:25,000 Speaker 1: ABC with the you know, the sunset would be cascading 2004 01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:26,439 Speaker 1: over the backdrop of all this. 2005 01:32:26,680 --> 01:32:29,040 Speaker 7: Here's Keith Jackson telling you all about it. 2006 01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 1: Oh now, and now it's nothing. It's crazy to think 2007 01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:36,639 Speaker 1: that that's how far it's falling well. 2008 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:39,120 Speaker 7: But think about it, guys. I mean like between the 2009 01:32:39,680 --> 01:32:42,559 Speaker 7: conference relignments like part of it, and Andy you hit 2010 01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:44,760 Speaker 7: on it was the you got to know what you 2011 01:32:44,880 --> 01:32:46,920 Speaker 7: are right, and Bucky you expounded on that a bit. 2012 01:32:47,479 --> 01:32:49,880 Speaker 7: It's like when Michigan and everybody was all up in 2013 01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:52,240 Speaker 7: arms a couple of years about trying to fire Harball, 2014 01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:54,200 Speaker 7: It's like, who the hell did you think you were? 2015 01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:59,280 Speaker 7: You weren't winning ten games nine games with regularity, and 2016 01:32:59,400 --> 01:33:03,599 Speaker 7: shimback title was a long time ago. Lloyd Carr's title 2017 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 7: was a long time ago to suddenly think, hey, we're 2018 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:08,000 Speaker 7: one of the elite. 2019 01:33:08,120 --> 01:33:08,599 Speaker 1: This is the way. 2020 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:13,320 Speaker 7: Tom Osbourne's yeah, exactly right. And in Texas A and 2021 01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 7: m with with firing you know, Jimbo Fisher and all 2022 01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 7: this stuff. Yeah, he gets his giant by he wins, right, 2023 01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:21,720 Speaker 7: However it gets parsed out seventy six million dollars. But 2024 01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 7: it's like, what do you think you're bringing in that's 2025 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 7: going to be better than that on a yearly basis? 2026 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:28,160 Speaker 7: Where's that jump happening? 2027 01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:29,400 Speaker 4: What's see? 2028 01:33:29,439 --> 01:33:31,600 Speaker 1: That's the funny thing. And that's why when everyone was like, oh, 2029 01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:36,759 Speaker 1: they're gonna fire Jim Harbott, no, they're not. No walks 2030 01:33:37,040 --> 01:33:41,640 Speaker 1: here and listen, he walks the way. Yeah, he's not. 2031 01:33:42,240 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 1: They shouldn't fire him. They've never been a dominant team 2032 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:49,080 Speaker 1: like they've been over the last three the four years. 2033 01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:53,600 Speaker 1: They're relevant, they're considered like you're almost are swinging me 2034 01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:56,719 Speaker 1: like they're blue blood. I mean, they won a thousand games, 2035 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:00,560 Speaker 1: they have all these wins. They're now competing with the 2036 01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:03,000 Speaker 1: Georgia's and the heavyweights of the world. 2037 01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 4: Why would you move. 2038 01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:06,160 Speaker 1: Off from it? Hey, yeah, we'll be the villain and 2039 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:10,840 Speaker 1: they have gone full heel mode and they should. Yeah. 2040 01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 1: You don't like us, we don't care, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 2041 01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:21,599 Speaker 1: and it's it's working for them. So now as much 2042 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:25,880 Speaker 1: as Ryan Day and everybody else would like him to leave, nah, 2043 01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:27,479 Speaker 1: this is just when the fun part came. 2044 01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:29,800 Speaker 4: Like, they won twelve. 2045 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:33,559 Speaker 1: Games with him missing, but seven imagine if he's around 2046 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:34,400 Speaker 1: all the time. 2047 01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:37,200 Speaker 3: There'll be a slap in the face. If they lost 2048 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:38,280 Speaker 3: to Iowa with him. 2049 01:34:38,760 --> 01:34:41,840 Speaker 7: Three touchdown favorites. Well, we'll get into those games because 2050 01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:44,880 Speaker 7: we still have some chaos potentially inside the White lines, guys, 2051 01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:49,200 Speaker 7: as we get ready for Championship weekend.

As we get to 2082 01:36:23,280 --> 01:36:25,679 Speaker 7: the end of it, guys, Ryan Day with his eighty 2083 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:30,120 Speaker 7: eight percent winning percentage doesn't matter. Maurice Cloret, former Ohio 2084 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:33,559 Speaker 7: state stand out amongst so many others, calling for Ryan 2085 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:36,280 Speaker 7: Day's job after another loss. 2086 01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 3: To miss Right. 2087 01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:40,519 Speaker 7: I mean, you lose seven games, you're what fifty six? 2088 01:36:41,080 --> 01:36:43,880 Speaker 7: He's forty to zero against other Big ten teams. But 2089 01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:47,120 Speaker 7: as Clarette laid out, it's like, we don't pay you 2090 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:50,439 Speaker 7: nine million dollars a year to lose the only game 2091 01:36:50,520 --> 01:36:52,800 Speaker 7: that matters year after year. 2092 01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:55,800 Speaker 1: It's the only game that matters. It is. 2093 01:36:55,880 --> 01:36:58,720 Speaker 2: But the downside is should they get rid of Ryan Day? 2094 01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:01,679 Speaker 2: Which is a possibility. Who in the right mind would 2095 01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:04,160 Speaker 2: want that job, knowing that you know, it all depends 2096 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:05,200 Speaker 2: on the Michigan game. 2097 01:37:05,320 --> 01:37:08,680 Speaker 7: Really think it, what's it pay? It's still one of 2098 01:37:08,720 --> 01:37:11,479 Speaker 7: the most prestigious jobs in the in the game, right, 2099 01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:15,639 Speaker 7: like even in the NFL. Anybody that says they wouldn't 2100 01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:20,280 Speaker 7: want to go work for Jerry Jones's kidding themselves can 2101 01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:24,240 Speaker 7: come out now Urban. I think that would be an 2102 01:37:24,280 --> 01:37:28,920 Speaker 7: interesting proposition, right. He's been tied to some other places 2103 01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:32,120 Speaker 7: along the way. You know, I thought it was interesting. 2104 01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:34,320 Speaker 7: We we talked about it a little bit earlier than 2105 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:37,800 Speaker 7: last week, the rumors starting about Jonathan Smith and then 2106 01:37:37,840 --> 01:37:40,680 Speaker 7: lo and behold, hey, we've got this big game. Oh 2107 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:43,120 Speaker 7: he's got to be the Michigan State coach. Tell me 2108 01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:45,120 Speaker 7: those guys didn't get a bunch of bleeps on their 2109 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:49,640 Speaker 7: phone and the lockers like, oh, all right, guess coach is. 2110 01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:55,439 Speaker 1: Going immediately after it, I am surprised. I'm surprised that 2111 01:37:55,520 --> 01:38:00,799 Speaker 1: he left. I am surprised. It's such a move. Everything 2112 01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,080 Speaker 1: he's done has been on the West coast. You know, 2113 01:38:03,479 --> 01:38:06,760 Speaker 1: he was a ub as offensive coordinator. He played at 2114 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:10,000 Speaker 1: Oregon State, came back and resurrected his alma mater, and 2115 01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 1: I know they're still looking for a conference. 2116 01:38:12,160 --> 01:38:14,880 Speaker 4: But I am just surprised that. 2117 01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:17,120 Speaker 1: He would jump in to Michigan State. I know there 2118 01:38:17,120 --> 01:38:18,800 Speaker 1: are a lot of the commons and zeros on the 2119 01:38:18,880 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 1: check that he's eventually signing, But man, but would you 2120 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:24,240 Speaker 1: agree this? 2121 01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:25,560 Speaker 3: But would you agree to this? 2122 01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:29,479 Speaker 2: That prior to the NIL and the portal, he probably 2123 01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,960 Speaker 2: wouldn't have left. But I think right now it makes 2124 01:38:32,040 --> 01:38:34,479 Speaker 2: things so wide open. It's like recruiting. It's like being 2125 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:37,439 Speaker 2: a personnel director in the NFL. Kids now see he 2126 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:40,920 Speaker 2: had everything at home on the West Coast. He knew 2127 01:38:40,920 --> 01:38:42,800 Speaker 2: the high school plays, he knew everything over there. I 2128 01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:44,439 Speaker 2: don't think that makes a difference right now with the 2129 01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:47,600 Speaker 2: NIL and the portal. You know, kids are going to 2130 01:38:47,640 --> 01:38:49,920 Speaker 2: go to various schools. Not so much because of the 2131 01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,160 Speaker 2: schedule they play or if they're going to start or not. 2132 01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:54,719 Speaker 2: It's how much money they're going to get from the NIL. 2133 01:38:55,120 --> 01:38:58,320 Speaker 2: And maybe Michigan State obviously will give more than the 2134 01:38:58,360 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 2: school he's at right now. 2135 01:39:00,840 --> 01:39:02,880 Speaker 1: It may be so, but I just think, okay, so 2136 01:39:03,120 --> 01:39:05,800 Speaker 1: let's let's look at that conference, right because I'm always 2137 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:08,400 Speaker 1: thinking about it from a national perspective. So there's now 2138 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,200 Speaker 1: a twelve team tournament that you would get into. So 2139 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:13,320 Speaker 1: the teams that they have to knock off, you think 2140 01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:18,200 Speaker 1: that maybe they take what three maybe four Big ten teams. Okay, 2141 01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:20,400 Speaker 1: so if they take three, let's let's go ahead. And 2142 01:39:20,479 --> 01:39:27,160 Speaker 1: right in Penn State, Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa is always 2143 01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 1: lurking around, and then you have those everyone else is 2144 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:35,839 Speaker 1: kind of vying for that fifth spot in the rotation. 2145 01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:38,439 Speaker 1: Wisconsin used to be the team that was always kind 2146 01:39:38,439 --> 01:39:40,040 Speaker 1: of in the mix that you know, we'll see if 2147 01:39:40,120 --> 01:39:43,960 Speaker 1: Luke Ferrick can get Luke Ficle can get them up 2148 01:39:44,040 --> 01:39:46,720 Speaker 1: and run it. But man, like, you got to jump 2149 01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:48,599 Speaker 1: a lot of teams if you're Michigan State to get 2150 01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:49,439 Speaker 1: right back up top. 2151 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:51,599 Speaker 7: Well, but you're at least in a conference that matters, 2152 01:39:52,360 --> 01:39:54,680 Speaker 7: right You alluded to a brief thl there, Buckye. I 2153 01:39:54,720 --> 01:39:57,640 Speaker 7: mean you got, yeah, you rested soul control of the 2154 01:39:57,720 --> 01:40:00,840 Speaker 7: PAC twelve through the courts right at Oregon State and 2155 01:40:01,040 --> 01:40:04,000 Speaker 7: Washington State. But what are you right? You're not You're 2156 01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:05,920 Speaker 7: not a conference. You've got to go and figure out 2157 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:10,400 Speaker 7: what your schedules are and try to cobble something together 2158 01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:11,400 Speaker 7: here in short order. 2159 01:40:12,479 --> 01:40:14,320 Speaker 2: But it's gonna make a little more difficult. Next year, 2160 01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:17,240 Speaker 2: the Big Ten is going to eliminate the two divisions, 2161 01:40:17,439 --> 01:40:18,639 Speaker 2: No One Big League. 2162 01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:23,120 Speaker 7: Yeah no, I'm not saying that you're running into a 2163 01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:26,200 Speaker 7: field of flowers here, but you're you're in a legitimate 2164 01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:30,320 Speaker 7: conference that has a path and you know, for all 2165 01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:33,960 Speaker 7: its misgivings, for all its problems. And again Michigan State 2166 01:40:34,479 --> 01:40:36,960 Speaker 7: right in the heart of everything going on in the 2167 01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:39,600 Speaker 7: Big Ten. Everybody's had a scandal. You get one, and 2168 01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:41,320 Speaker 7: you get one. The only one that don't are the 2169 01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:43,519 Speaker 7: Iowa guys. The biggest thing about them is they don't 2170 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:47,479 Speaker 7: score touchdowns that everybody seems so upset about. It's like, 2171 01:40:47,520 --> 01:40:49,320 Speaker 7: you know what, go win foot all the old fashion. 2172 01:40:50,040 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 7: I love it. 2173 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:53,479 Speaker 1: But remember they had that scandal not too long ago, 2174 01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:55,799 Speaker 1: what two three years ago with all the former players 2175 01:40:56,320 --> 01:40:56,479 Speaker 1: in the. 2176 01:40:56,479 --> 01:40:57,320 Speaker 7: Weight line and stuff. 2177 01:40:57,360 --> 01:41:00,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the allegations with the strength coach, and then 2178 01:41:00,439 --> 01:41:03,760 Speaker 1: you know that's rough Brian France was involved in that. 2179 01:41:03,880 --> 01:41:06,559 Speaker 4: They had to kind of navigate around those waters. 2180 01:41:06,600 --> 01:41:10,519 Speaker 1: But here they are. Yeah, somehow in the championship game. 2181 01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:13,200 Speaker 1: It looks like they average twelve points a game, but 2182 01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:13,720 Speaker 1: they're there. 2183 01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:17,599 Speaker 7: Yeah. Well, I guess the point as far as they 2184 01:41:17,640 --> 01:41:21,559 Speaker 7: went is that it didn't become the necessarily the national 2185 01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:25,000 Speaker 7: firestorm that we've seen with so many of these others, 2186 01:41:25,080 --> 01:41:29,080 Speaker 7: right Michigan State and the pervasiveness of what's going on there, 2187 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:31,479 Speaker 7: and certainly in the PAC twelve you had plenty of 2188 01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:34,720 Speaker 7: it out here in Los Angeles with UC and UCLA. 2189 01:41:35,240 --> 01:41:37,559 Speaker 7: But yeah, I mean, you go to a conference that's 2190 01:41:37,600 --> 01:41:42,880 Speaker 7: set up and ready for those competitions, and maybe that's 2191 01:41:43,040 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 7: enough of an exhale because you at least know what 2192 01:41:46,600 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 7: you're going into. 2193 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:50,000 Speaker 2: Can we circle back for a second to Ryan date, 2194 01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:52,680 Speaker 2: because right now, Ohilo State, in my mind, is the 2195 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:55,439 Speaker 2: number one team with one loss, and if you can 2196 01:41:55,479 --> 01:41:57,320 Speaker 2: look at the top four teams right now, I gotta 2197 01:41:57,360 --> 01:42:00,639 Speaker 2: believe that Georgia, Michigan, Washington, and Florida State with Ohio 2198 01:42:00,760 --> 01:42:02,880 Speaker 2: State looking right in there with a couple of breaks, 2199 01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 2: so Ohio State can be in the top four. 2200 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 7: Well, and that's where this coming weekend gets interesting. Right 2201 01:42:08,640 --> 01:42:16,080 Speaker 7: We've got our our championship lineup is set up. Alabama, Georgia, Washington, Oregon. 2202 01:42:16,160 --> 01:42:19,400 Speaker 7: We get a rematch there Washington the Year of Living Dangerously, 2203 01:42:19,520 --> 01:42:22,600 Speaker 7: But to steal from Caliperry, it's the old succeed and 2204 01:42:22,680 --> 01:42:25,520 Speaker 7: proceed stout points no matter. But by the way, congratulations 2205 01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,160 Speaker 7: to the Washington kicker. You win, you kick a game winner, 2206 01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:31,680 Speaker 7: you get a scholarship right kick all year for this 2207 01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:34,800 Speaker 7: squad that's in the college football player. Now what we've 2208 01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:36,519 Speaker 7: dangled this carrot out long enough? 2209 01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:39,439 Speaker 4: So so is that scholarship if he's a senior? 2210 01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:41,720 Speaker 1: Is that just for semester? Is that what we're doing? 2211 01:42:42,360 --> 01:42:44,640 Speaker 7: Well, it's like it's a little bit of loans he 2212 01:42:44,680 --> 01:42:47,400 Speaker 7: doesn't have to take out. But we got Texas, Oklahoma State, 2213 01:42:47,720 --> 01:42:52,160 Speaker 7: Florida State survives, and they've got Louisville who lost, and 2214 01:42:52,240 --> 01:42:55,600 Speaker 7: then you've got that Alabama Georgia game. Alabama with that 2215 01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:59,840 Speaker 7: you know, fourth and goal from the thirty one mirror 2216 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:02,040 Speaker 7: and whatever however, they're going to turn it to sell 2217 01:43:02,120 --> 01:43:04,280 Speaker 7: T shirts.

I think I think Ohio State is 2225 01:43:19,080 --> 01:43:20,639 Speaker 3: the number one team with one loss. 2226 01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 4: Gosh, jeez, what about Texas? 2227 01:43:25,640 --> 01:43:28,800 Speaker 7: Well, and that's just it in Texas will will what 2228 01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:32,800 Speaker 7: they've got Oklahoma State, They've they've done everything that's to 2229 01:43:32,880 --> 01:43:35,719 Speaker 7: them to this point too, Right, Texas and they beat ALAA, 2230 01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:36,920 Speaker 7: Alabama had to head. 2231 01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:40,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, Texas has to go over Alabama. 2232 01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:42,960 Speaker 7: Right, you would think, But then we get it. We 2233 01:43:43,040 --> 01:43:45,200 Speaker 7: always get into these discussions, well, how much does a 2234 01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:48,160 Speaker 7: week to win count? Does it hold the same weight 2235 01:43:48,240 --> 01:43:48,760 Speaker 7: that it does? 2236 01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 1: Because if they don't, then if you're one of those things, 2237 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:54,800 Speaker 1: you're like, well, why do why do we even play 2238 01:43:54,840 --> 01:43:56,840 Speaker 1: these head to his if it doesn't, if we don't 2239 01:43:56,880 --> 01:44:01,000 Speaker 1: get a bonus bump up, and in that, why even 2240 01:44:01,120 --> 01:44:04,720 Speaker 1: play the hit? Why even match it up? You know? 2241 01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:08,080 Speaker 7: Well, I think for sec purposes, those games should be 2242 01:44:08,120 --> 01:44:11,920 Speaker 7: played during the week instead of those bye weeks that 2243 01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:12,400 Speaker 7: they take. 2244 01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:16,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm curious. 2245 01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:20,200 Speaker 1: Okay, So if if Georgia wins, let's just say Georgia wins, 2246 01:44:20,479 --> 01:44:22,880 Speaker 1: who would you expect to be Do we expect Michigan 2247 01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:24,640 Speaker 1: to beat Iowa or or no? 2248 01:44:25,160 --> 01:44:29,800 Speaker 7: There there are three touchdown favorite So so let's say 2249 01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:33,080 Speaker 7: they win. I presume they do. It won't be I 2250 01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:34,519 Speaker 7: don't think it will be that ugly. 2251 01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:38,200 Speaker 4: Then who do we want to see?

As we get ready for 2360 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:58,920 Speaker 7: Sunday night football. You heard the injury particulars from Kevin Wyert. 2361 01:49:59,280 --> 01:50:03,040 Speaker 7: One injury note though no Mark Andrews, and we know 2362 01:50:03,160 --> 01:50:06,439 Speaker 7: what that does substantially to that Ravens offense. On the 2363 01:50:06,479 --> 01:50:10,759 Speaker 7: other side, Joey Bosa done so one pass rusher, fewer 2364 01:50:10,880 --> 01:50:14,639 Speaker 7: for Lamar Jackson to try to evade in this one Ravens, 2365 01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:17,600 Speaker 7: we keep trying to crown them. Do they go and 2366 01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:21,719 Speaker 7: make Brandon Staley try to defend whatever defense he's calling? 2367 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:26,599 Speaker 7: Which media outfit member does he brate in a postgame loss? 2368 01:50:27,400 --> 01:50:30,439 Speaker 2: Andy Furman, I would tell you this was right now 2369 01:50:30,479 --> 01:50:32,840 Speaker 2: if bothmore Ravens are chomping at the bit right now 2370 01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:35,160 Speaker 2: because they got two LA teams the next two weeks, 2371 01:50:35,400 --> 01:50:38,080 Speaker 2: two bad LA teams. The Ravens aren't worried about the 2372 01:50:38,160 --> 01:50:40,559 Speaker 2: charges at all. The charges defense is giving up something 2373 01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:42,800 Speaker 2: like two hundred and thirty eight hundred and forty points. 2374 01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:46,880 Speaker 2: They lost Joey Boza to a foot injury last week. Look, 2375 01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:49,439 Speaker 2: I just think that right now the Ravens are in 2376 01:50:49,439 --> 01:50:52,439 Speaker 2: a good place because every team remains five hundred or 2377 01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:56,000 Speaker 2: better in the AFC North, where they're at Deshaun Watson's gone, 2378 01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:56,920 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow has gone. 2379 01:50:57,120 --> 01:50:58,720 Speaker 3: The Ravens are in pretty good shape. And I think 2380 01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:00,920 Speaker 3: the Ravens win this one. I think went pretty big. 2381 01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:04,760 Speaker 1: Oh, pretty big. You know, here's what I love about 2382 01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:07,679 Speaker 1: the National Football League. Just when we think we know everything, 2383 01:51:09,040 --> 01:51:09,200 Speaker 1: I know. 2384 01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:14,720 Speaker 7: He said that with great conviction, though, Andy, you really 2385 01:51:14,800 --> 01:51:15,720 Speaker 7: sold the hell out of that. 2386 01:51:15,800 --> 01:51:16,240 Speaker 8: I like that. 2387 01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:20,760 Speaker 1: Tonight is a curveball moment. Tonight is the night that 2388 01:51:20,880 --> 01:51:24,000 Speaker 1: the fighting analytics find a way to get it done. 2389 01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:28,880 Speaker 1: Is their last and Brandon Staley's barking at reporters. He's edgy, 2390 01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:32,160 Speaker 1: he's feisty. I can't wait for them to win and 2391 01:51:32,240 --> 01:51:34,840 Speaker 1: then for him to come in there and pound a 2392 01:51:34,920 --> 01:51:39,040 Speaker 1: podium until the football world. I told you so, I 2393 01:51:39,120 --> 01:51:43,759 Speaker 1: told you tough, they were greedy, all that stuff. 2394 01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:46,400 Speaker 2: If anybody should do that should be Sean Payton talking 2395 01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:48,439 Speaker 2: about the offensive coordinator of the Jets. 2396 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:50,160 Speaker 3: Sean Payton should be doing well. 2397 01:51:50,200 --> 01:51:50,439 Speaker 8: You know what. 2398 01:51:50,640 --> 01:51:52,760 Speaker 7: I go back to what I said when we first 2399 01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:56,920 Speaker 7: started this road fellas is Sean Payton put himself in 2400 01:51:57,000 --> 01:51:58,559 Speaker 7: the best possible scenario. 2401 01:51:58,800 --> 01:51:58,920 Speaker 1: Right. 2402 01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:02,360 Speaker 7: He'd buried hack It and the coaching staff, which meant 2403 01:52:02,439 --> 01:52:05,600 Speaker 7: he put a giant spotlight on Russell Wilson and he 2404 01:52:05,680 --> 01:52:07,479 Speaker 7: looked at him and he smiley said, you know what, 2405 01:52:07,560 --> 01:52:10,920 Speaker 7: big boy, If this fails, what's the common denominator? But 2406 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:14,639 Speaker 7: if it works, I'm a genius. Right right now, Sean 2407 01:52:14,760 --> 01:52:17,760 Speaker 7: Payton is getting all this the flowers and the genius again, 2408 01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:20,519 Speaker 7: even if it's more the defense that should get a 2409 01:52:20,520 --> 01:52:23,400 Speaker 7: little more love and get the flowers for what they've 2410 01:52:23,439 --> 01:52:24,320 Speaker 7: done the last month. 2411 01:52:24,720 --> 01:52:27,080 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, the fact that he didn't fire coach Joseph 2412 01:52:27,120 --> 01:52:28,640 Speaker 1: after giving up seventy. 2413 01:52:28,360 --> 01:52:31,120 Speaker 7: Points pretty crazy, right, Yeah, the fact. 2414 01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:32,559 Speaker 4: That he's stuck with him. The defense is playing. 2415 01:52:32,600 --> 01:52:34,200 Speaker 3: They were rowing three at the time, weren't they. 2416 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean they were getting throttled. Russell was there. 2417 01:52:37,720 --> 01:52:40,040 Speaker 1: And so what he's done is he's made I mean, 2418 01:52:40,080 --> 01:52:42,960 Speaker 1: he's kind of recreated the Drew Brees offense. Hey, Russ, 2419 01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:44,840 Speaker 1: we're not gonna let you lose this. We can keep 2420 01:52:44,840 --> 01:52:47,519 Speaker 1: it short, intermediate, We're gonna run the football. We're gonna 2421 01:52:47,560 --> 01:52:52,200 Speaker 1: have you basically play like Russell in Seattle. Yeah, Russell 2422 01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:55,000 Speaker 1: looks like a different player because you know what he's 2423 01:52:55,040 --> 01:52:57,200 Speaker 1: doing what the Seahawks wanted him to do, and he 2424 01:52:57,320 --> 01:53:00,600 Speaker 1: has had the epiphany that you know, maybe that was 2425 01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 1: good for me. He's been taking his vitamins like all 2426 01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:04,800 Speaker 1: the little holksters around the world. 2427 01:53:04,840 --> 01:53:07,439 Speaker 7: Look at you. Yeah, I would say that she didn't 2428 01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:10,760 Speaker 7: invoke the name of Drew Brees. I issued an apology 2429 01:53:10,880 --> 01:53:13,760 Speaker 7: to him earlier this week because he's been long. The 2430 01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:16,519 Speaker 7: af A quarterback is starting to fall apart a little bit, 2431 01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:18,960 Speaker 7: and he's not being able to make the same throws 2432 01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:21,000 Speaker 7: I've used it on Drew Brees. The man says he 2433 01:53:21,080 --> 01:53:23,360 Speaker 7: can't throw a ball with his right arm anymore, that 2434 01:53:23,439 --> 01:53:26,760 Speaker 7: he plays catch with his kids lefty. So I felt 2435 01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:27,360 Speaker 7: bad about that. 2436 01:53:28,080 --> 01:53:29,320 Speaker 4: Well, that's a terrific athlete. 2437 01:53:29,600 --> 01:53:32,600 Speaker 1: He's been able to adjust and play lefty. But it 2438 01:53:32,680 --> 01:53:34,840 Speaker 1: speaks to what we were seeing those last years when 2439 01:53:34,880 --> 01:53:36,800 Speaker 1: we were saying, man, he throws a lot. 2440 01:53:36,680 --> 01:53:39,280 Speaker 4: Of checkdown yep. Not that he wanted to. 2441 01:53:39,800 --> 01:53:42,639 Speaker 7: It is because that's all he's got left in the bank. 2442 01:53:42,880 --> 01:53:43,800 Speaker 1: All he's got left. 2443 01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:44,519 Speaker 4: As the knuckler. 2444 01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:46,880 Speaker 1: He became phild neicro at the end. 2445 01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:49,080 Speaker 7: Of his astually done.

Notice, howid 2471 01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:13,800 Speaker 7: you know Matt Eberflu's kind of got off the hook? 2472 01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:16,520 Speaker 7: Why because it looked like competent football for a while. 2473 01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:21,480 Speaker 7: Justin fields back on the pitch as it were for 2474 01:55:21,720 --> 01:55:24,080 Speaker 7: the Bears, and you saw a little semblance of the 2475 01:55:24,120 --> 01:55:28,240 Speaker 7: offense until with the second to last possession fellas here, 2476 01:55:28,400 --> 01:55:31,080 Speaker 7: first down, let's dive into the backs of our offensive 2477 01:55:31,120 --> 01:55:35,040 Speaker 7: linean timeout, Let's dive into the backs of our offensive lineman. 2478 01:55:35,120 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 7: On second down. Hey, it's third and nine and we've 2479 01:55:37,800 --> 01:55:42,800 Speaker 7: run off three point two seconds from the clock. Bears football, 2480 01:55:42,840 --> 01:55:46,560 Speaker 7: everybody Bears at the Vikings Vikings still very much alive 2481 01:55:46,600 --> 01:55:49,920 Speaker 7: in these playoff world. Justin Jefferson with a bye week 2482 01:55:49,960 --> 01:55:52,200 Speaker 7: and looming. Yes, there's still a couple of those out there. 2483 01:55:52,240 --> 01:55:55,680 Speaker 7: Folks will not go or is presumed not to go, 2484 01:55:55,800 --> 01:55:58,280 Speaker 7: He says, We'll see how I feel. I would be 2485 01:55:58,360 --> 01:56:01,240 Speaker 7: looking towards the other options for your fantasy purposes. Here 2486 01:56:01,560 --> 01:56:03,720 Speaker 7: Bears playing out the string, but they did play some 2487 01:56:03,840 --> 01:56:05,280 Speaker 7: better football, Bucky Brooks. 2488 01:56:07,040 --> 01:56:09,760 Speaker 1: They have played better football justin Fields up until like 2489 01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:13,520 Speaker 1: look man the fumble. Look, he played really well, and 2490 01:56:14,200 --> 01:56:16,960 Speaker 1: I think that's what everyone wants to see. I think 2491 01:56:17,040 --> 01:56:19,440 Speaker 1: it's a little bit overblown in terms of him playing 2492 01:56:19,520 --> 01:56:21,720 Speaker 1: for his job, but I get it. If he continues 2493 01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:23,640 Speaker 1: to play like he played last week where he ran 2494 01:56:23,720 --> 01:56:26,040 Speaker 1: for over one hundred yards through the ball efficiently, effectively, 2495 01:56:26,400 --> 01:56:28,280 Speaker 1: if he can just take care of the ball, the 2496 01:56:28,360 --> 01:56:29,440 Speaker 1: Bears have their guy. 2497 01:56:29,680 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 4: They just need to kind of roll with it. 2498 01:56:31,680 --> 01:56:34,040 Speaker 1: So I'm digging it. I think this Monday night, though, 2499 01:56:34,440 --> 01:56:36,880 Speaker 1: it's a Bear trying to deal with that defense that 2500 01:56:36,920 --> 01:56:41,280 Speaker 1: Brian Floyd is gonna try to But look, I'm a stick. 2501 01:56:41,280 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 1: I'm a stick. I'm gonna stick with the Bears on 2502 01:56:44,280 --> 01:56:47,600 Speaker 1: this one. There's something about them. There's something about how 2503 01:56:47,640 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 1: they kind of coming together a little bit. I'm gonna 2504 01:56:50,400 --> 01:56:51,720 Speaker 1: go with them. I'm gonna say they find a way 2505 01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:52,200 Speaker 1: to get it done. 2506 01:56:53,760 --> 01:56:55,640 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Buck, I really am. I think the 2507 01:56:55,720 --> 01:56:58,000 Speaker 2: Bears doesn't make Mike Homer feel pretty good. The Bears 2508 01:56:58,040 --> 01:57:00,920 Speaker 2: outplayed the Lions last week. They did to win slip away, 2509 01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:06,200 Speaker 2: but look, I honestly, Cannescy justin fields being that good again, 2510 01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:06,960 Speaker 2: that's the problem. 2511 01:57:07,040 --> 01:57:08,240 Speaker 3: I think the Bears can win. 2512 01:57:08,560 --> 01:57:11,280 Speaker 2: But Joshua Dobbs, he finally lost the game in the 2513 01:57:11,360 --> 01:57:12,280 Speaker 2: Vikings uniform. 2514 01:57:12,760 --> 01:57:15,000 Speaker 3: Is he good enough to bounce back against the Bears team. 2515 01:57:15,760 --> 01:57:16,120 Speaker 7: I don't know. 2516 01:57:16,360 --> 01:57:16,480 Speaker 6: Now. 2517 01:57:16,560 --> 01:57:19,840 Speaker 2: The Bears team probably is better in run defense than 2518 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:23,640 Speaker 2: pass defense. They'll have a tough time running the football. 2519 01:57:23,880 --> 01:57:25,720 Speaker 2: I think the Bears to win this game, even though 2520 01:57:25,760 --> 01:57:27,200 Speaker 2: the game is in fact in Minnesota. 2521 01:57:27,240 --> 01:57:30,440 Speaker 7: You know what would have really helped Jalen Johnson's petition 2522 01:57:30,560 --> 01:57:32,000 Speaker 7: to go get the Bears to pay him a lot 2523 01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:34,920 Speaker 7: of money When he had the opportunity to run an 2524 01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:39,440 Speaker 7: interception back ninety four yards, don't drop it to where 2525 01:57:39,520 --> 01:57:42,600 Speaker 7: the Lions then can rush the ball in the next play. 2526 01:57:42,920 --> 01:57:47,240 Speaker 7: How about that there's a promo running. I ranted about 2527 01:57:47,280 --> 01:57:49,800 Speaker 7: this early in the week. It was good for eber 2528 01:57:49,880 --> 01:57:53,760 Speaker 7: Flu's stands and for the Bears management. They still lost. 2529 01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:57,839 Speaker 7: So if Marvin Harrison Junior decides to leave Ohio State. 2530 01:57:57,800 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 1: They can't take They can't take a quarterback, can't take 2531 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:02,800 Speaker 1: a wide receiver that high. They need a lot of stuff, 2532 01:58:03,440 --> 01:58:05,400 Speaker 1: they can't take it. They can't take a wire like 2533 01:58:05,520 --> 01:58:09,000 Speaker 1: That's like the ornament on the top of the Christmas Tree, 2534 01:58:09,360 --> 01:58:09,880 Speaker 1: like you can't. 2535 01:58:10,200 --> 01:58:12,120 Speaker 4: You got to get all the other stuff before they 2536 01:58:12,200 --> 01:58:12,400 Speaker 4: do that. 2537 01:58:12,520 --> 01:58:14,720 Speaker 1: I know everyone is gonna push for a take care 2538 01:58:14,720 --> 01:58:15,960 Speaker 1: of the Williams and Marvin Harrison. 2539 01:58:16,120 --> 01:58:18,880 Speaker 4: Man, No, I need some big bodies. The Bears need 2540 01:58:18,960 --> 01:58:19,480 Speaker 4: some bigs. 2541 01:58:19,880 --> 01:58:22,680 Speaker 3: Well, I'd rather protect the quarterback. They get a receiver. 2542 01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:25,440 Speaker 7: I reckon line some want. Yeah, you can always use 2543 01:58:25,480 --> 01:58:26,280 Speaker 7: more in the NFL. 2544 01:58:26,320 --> 01:58:29,080 Speaker 2: We need the late Pull Brown. Well, yeah, the late 2545 01:58:29,120 --> 01:58:31,400 Speaker 2: Pull Brown, the owner of the Cincinnati Bengals. He always 2546 01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:33,920 Speaker 2: said one thing, it's what's up front that counts. It 2547 01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:36,120 Speaker 2: was an old cigarette commercial that did the same thing. 2548 01:58:36,360 --> 01:58:38,640 Speaker 2: And the first player he ever drafted for the Cincinnati 2549 01:58:38,680 --> 01:58:41,920 Speaker 2: Bengals in nineteen sixty eight was an offensive lineman the center. 2550 01:58:42,160 --> 01:58:42,760 Speaker 4: That's what he did. 2551 01:58:43,200 --> 01:58:44,440 Speaker 3: Gotta get that line first. 2552 01:58:45,000 --> 01:58:47,120 Speaker 1: You know what I love about you, Andy, I love 2553 01:58:47,200 --> 01:58:50,920 Speaker 1: your Cincinnati fandom.

But it's great though, I mean, how 2608 02:01:31,800 --> 02:01:34,400 Speaker 1: can you plan about Thanksgiving? You had to pack his 2609 02:01:34,480 --> 02:01:37,200 Speaker 1: in the Lions. You had the Cowboys commanders, and then 2610 02:01:37,240 --> 02:01:39,920 Speaker 1: you finished it off with the Seahawks nine as you 2611 02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:40,360 Speaker 1: had all the. 2612 02:01:40,400 --> 02:01:42,360 Speaker 4: Rivers, and then you got a Black Friday game. 2613 02:01:42,440 --> 02:01:44,800 Speaker 1: We did a Black Friday game that like, like, I mean, 2614 02:01:44,840 --> 02:01:48,120 Speaker 1: who knew, you know, Black Friday's a national holiday. 2615 02:01:48,280 --> 02:01:51,440 Speaker 7: I really thought they were were stuff there. Yeah, I 2616 02:01:51,760 --> 02:01:54,440 Speaker 7: really thought they'd start doing a cavalcade of products through 2617 02:01:54,480 --> 02:01:57,120 Speaker 7: the booth as soon as that game got out of hands, 2618 02:01:57,880 --> 02:01:59,880 Speaker 7: which meant from the opening kickoff. 2619 02:02:00,040 --> 02:02:01,800 Speaker 1: In the beginning, I've never seen a hill made of 2620 02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:04,280 Speaker 1: hill may return for a toutdown. 2621 02:02:04,080 --> 02:02:07,040 Speaker 7: I think statistically maybe since they've tracked all this stuff. 2622 02:02:07,040 --> 02:02:08,080 Speaker 7: They've never seen it either. 2623 02:02:08,960 --> 02:02:11,400 Speaker 1: No hail Mary taken all the way back to the house. 2624 02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:14,320 Speaker 1: I mean the odds of someone picking off a hail 2625 02:02:14,440 --> 02:02:17,720 Speaker 1: Mary and weaving through traffic ninety nine yards to the 2626 02:02:17,800 --> 02:02:18,160 Speaker 1: other end. 2627 02:02:18,280 --> 02:02:20,240 Speaker 4: Not a great day, not a great look. 2628 02:02:21,520 --> 02:02:23,840 Speaker 7: But you know what, if you're gonna fail, fail spectacularly. 2629 02:02:23,920 --> 02:02:25,720 Speaker 7: And that's my advice to all of you out there, 2630 02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:30,800 Speaker 7: go down swinging, don't be also and almost missus. No, no, no, no, 2631 02:02:31,560 --> 02:02:34,680 Speaker 7: shoot your best shot and if it fails, yeah, all right, 2632 02:02:34,800 --> 02:02:37,400 Speaker 7: the old Wayne Gretzky, you miss one hundred percent of 2633 02:02:37,440 --> 02:02:40,800 Speaker 7: the shots you don't take. Later co opted by Michael 2634 02:02:40,840 --> 02:02:44,560 Speaker 7: Scott of the office. But that's the thing when we 2635 02:02:44,680 --> 02:02:48,200 Speaker 7: look at those four games, Bucky, and we come away with, 2636 02:02:48,600 --> 02:02:50,880 Speaker 7: you know, the Lions and the Packers. Before the season, 2637 02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:53,680 Speaker 7: was talking with Shay and Mark, our guys making us 2638 02:02:53,720 --> 02:02:56,320 Speaker 7: sound so pretty this morning, like back back where we 2639 02:02:56,400 --> 02:02:58,680 Speaker 7: started things. I picked the Packers to win the division. 2640 02:02:58,920 --> 02:03:01,240 Speaker 7: And I'm still holding onto that ticket, clutching it with 2641 02:03:01,360 --> 02:03:04,440 Speaker 7: a death grip right now. When you see the Lions 2642 02:03:05,160 --> 02:03:07,240 Speaker 7: lose a game, now, can they come and chase them down? 2643 02:03:07,480 --> 02:03:07,520 Speaker 9: No? 2644 02:03:07,800 --> 02:03:12,080 Speaker 7: But potentially a playoff team here, Jordan Love looking better 2645 02:03:12,160 --> 02:03:14,840 Speaker 7: of late. You'd still like to see some semblance of 2646 02:03:14,840 --> 02:03:17,360 Speaker 7: a run game. But for Detroit, you know, the defense 2647 02:03:17,720 --> 02:03:20,680 Speaker 7: has been lackluster at times here and down the stretch. 2648 02:03:20,720 --> 02:03:21,920 Speaker 7: You gotta be a little to doing a little bit 2649 02:03:21,960 --> 02:03:23,240 Speaker 7: of hand ringing if you're in Detroit. 2650 02:03:24,760 --> 02:03:27,160 Speaker 1: I love it, yeah, because it didn't look good like 2651 02:03:27,240 --> 02:03:29,040 Speaker 1: a team that we kind of penciled in. Hey, they 2652 02:03:29,120 --> 02:03:32,000 Speaker 1: read and challenge the heavyweights, the Niners and this and that, 2653 02:03:32,200 --> 02:03:34,240 Speaker 1: and then you kind of see them lose to the 2654 02:03:34,280 --> 02:03:36,920 Speaker 1: package the way they lost. I mean, Packers outplayed him. 2655 02:03:37,280 --> 02:03:39,200 Speaker 1: I kind of control of the action, dominated the game. 2656 02:03:39,360 --> 02:03:44,680 Speaker 1: So it opens up concerns about the Lions and the 2657 02:03:44,760 --> 02:03:47,440 Speaker 1: ability the maturity when it comes to being able to 2658 02:03:47,480 --> 02:03:49,960 Speaker 1: finish games and do it the right way. Still a 2659 02:03:50,040 --> 02:03:52,520 Speaker 1: really good team, I just don't know if they're quite 2660 02:03:52,560 --> 02:03:55,280 Speaker 1: on their tier with the Eagles and the Niners yet though. 2661 02:03:55,680 --> 02:03:58,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a different animal for sure. I Mean we 2662 02:03:58,320 --> 02:04:02,800 Speaker 7: saw Gibbs and Montcalm do their damage as we've seen 2663 02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:06,200 Speaker 7: throughout the year golf with another couple of turnovers, and 2664 02:04:06,240 --> 02:04:08,760 Speaker 7: I guess that's got to be the biggest concern as 2665 02:04:08,800 --> 02:04:11,440 Speaker 7: you're coming down the stretch. You play clean football and 2666 02:04:11,520 --> 02:04:15,160 Speaker 7: then it gets ugly and some bad turnovers like there 2667 02:04:15,200 --> 02:04:17,200 Speaker 7: are some of hey, he just tried to thread the 2668 02:04:17,280 --> 02:04:20,400 Speaker 7: needle here. You're just making some really bad decisions to 2669 02:04:20,760 --> 02:04:24,200 Speaker 7: linebackers standing by themselves unless you know they were obscured 2670 02:04:24,240 --> 02:04:27,040 Speaker 7: by the zebra standing next to them, or some of 2671 02:04:27,120 --> 02:04:31,000 Speaker 7: these fumble situations. It gets a little difficult. It's kind 2672 02:04:31,040 --> 02:04:33,280 Speaker 7: of like watching with two a tongue of I low. 2673 02:04:33,360 --> 02:04:35,960 Speaker 7: I don't know about your timeline. Mine was replete with 2674 02:04:36,080 --> 02:04:38,920 Speaker 7: the number of turnovers that he's had over the run, 2675 02:04:39,120 --> 02:04:42,400 Speaker 7: considering so many people before the season we're going after 2676 02:04:42,520 --> 02:04:45,960 Speaker 7: Dak Prescott, so many people the last month have done 2677 02:04:45,960 --> 02:04:49,000 Speaker 7: everything they can to strip away any bit of dignity 2678 02:04:49,800 --> 02:04:53,040 Speaker 7: and history of whatever Josh Allen's put on film the 2679 02:04:53,160 --> 02:04:55,520 Speaker 7: last couple of years that it was all right, he's 2680 02:04:55,560 --> 02:04:57,920 Speaker 7: nothing but a turnover machine. He's regressed to the point 2681 02:04:57,920 --> 02:05:01,200 Speaker 7: where we shouldn't consider him. And Tos jumped right into 2682 02:05:01,240 --> 02:05:03,680 Speaker 7: that mix with the interceptions in fumble totals. 2683 02:05:05,360 --> 02:05:06,760 Speaker 4: He has jumps in the mix. 2684 02:05:06,880 --> 02:05:10,680 Speaker 1: And that's concerning what I will say for all of 2685 02:05:10,720 --> 02:05:13,240 Speaker 1: these teams as we're beginning to look at them in 2686 02:05:13,360 --> 02:05:17,000 Speaker 1: relation to how they could perform in the playoffs, turnovers 2687 02:05:17,040 --> 02:05:20,240 Speaker 1: are the biggest deciding factor in games. You turn the 2688 02:05:20,280 --> 02:05:23,320 Speaker 1: ball over, you lose games. It's hard to overcome the 2689 02:05:23,440 --> 02:05:30,240 Speaker 1: extra possessions and the giveaways in prime scoring territory for 2690 02:05:30,360 --> 02:05:33,320 Speaker 1: the opponent. That's why when you see two have a 2691 02:05:33,360 --> 02:05:35,720 Speaker 1: spate of turnovers, you begin to get concerned because you 2692 02:05:35,880 --> 02:05:40,080 Speaker 1: know in the playoffs those turnovers will lead to a loss. 2693 02:05:40,360 --> 02:05:42,040 Speaker 4: He has to clean it up. They have to clean 2694 02:05:42,080 --> 02:05:42,320 Speaker 4: it up. 2695 02:05:42,360 --> 02:05:45,120 Speaker 1: You can't be careless with the football in these moments, 2696 02:05:45,360 --> 02:05:48,480 Speaker 1: and that goes for everybody. When you see your favorite 2697 02:05:48,520 --> 02:05:50,920 Speaker 1: team turning the ball over is problematic because you're not 2698 02:05:51,000 --> 02:05:52,440 Speaker 1: going to make a deep run. If you're a team 2699 02:05:52,480 --> 02:05:52,960 Speaker 1: that turns it. 2700 02:05:53,000 --> 02:05:56,600 Speaker 7: Over a lot, win the turnover margin since let's see, 2701 02:05:56,920 --> 02:06:01,200 Speaker 7: since twenty sixteen, that's the point that we're looking at 2702 02:06:01,320 --> 02:06:05,800 Speaker 7: through here, seventy percent just winning it outright, eighty three 2703 02:06:05,880 --> 02:06:08,880 Speaker 7: point nine percent if you're plus two or more on 2704 02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:11,960 Speaker 7: the season or in a game. I should say as 2705 02:06:12,120 --> 02:06:15,600 Speaker 7: if you flow through. So for green Bay, you know 2706 02:06:15,680 --> 02:06:20,200 Speaker 7: you've got a pulse. For Washington, they fired Jack del Rio. 2707 02:06:20,960 --> 02:06:23,200 Speaker 7: We all presume, and I think Ron Rivera is doing 2708 02:06:23,280 --> 02:06:25,960 Speaker 7: his best not to let let them see him sweat, 2709 02:06:26,800 --> 02:06:29,000 Speaker 7: But we've got to be in the final countdown there. 2710 02:06:29,360 --> 02:06:32,440 Speaker 7: We've already heard the Bill Belichick rumors and whispers or whatever. 2711 02:06:32,800 --> 02:06:36,880 Speaker 7: So short term, you got the fall guy, Jack, Congratulations 2712 02:06:36,960 --> 02:06:41,600 Speaker 7: on a job done. But there's talent on that squad 2713 02:06:42,720 --> 02:06:46,560 Speaker 7: just at this point not hardest. And I got to admit, 2714 02:06:46,680 --> 02:06:48,840 Speaker 7: you know, for Jack del Rio to get fired seemed 2715 02:06:49,240 --> 02:06:52,480 Speaker 7: you know, disingenuous and kind of silly given the fact 2716 02:06:52,480 --> 02:06:54,560 Speaker 7: that you gave away two of his best playmakers on 2717 02:06:54,640 --> 02:06:55,440 Speaker 7: the defensive line. 2718 02:06:56,840 --> 02:07:01,960 Speaker 1: Can't really understand any of what they're doing in Washington, right, 2719 02:07:02,360 --> 02:07:04,600 Speaker 1: So if you feel like your team has a legitimate shot, 2720 02:07:04,640 --> 02:07:07,960 Speaker 1: then you don't trade away Mantest Swet and Chase Young. Yeah, 2721 02:07:08,120 --> 02:07:10,360 Speaker 1: the draft currency and all this stuff is that, but 2722 02:07:10,400 --> 02:07:12,040 Speaker 1: I would rather have the players. And if I'm Ron 2723 02:07:12,160 --> 02:07:16,360 Speaker 1: Rivera in particular, I know that Josh Harris is looking 2724 02:07:16,480 --> 02:07:20,920 Speaker 1: over my shoulders scrutinizing my every move. I for sure 2725 02:07:21,040 --> 02:07:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm not trading away players that can help me win 2726 02:07:23,720 --> 02:07:26,320 Speaker 1: in the short term while thinking about the long term 2727 02:07:26,400 --> 02:07:28,680 Speaker 1: interest of a place that I'm probably not going to 2728 02:07:28,760 --> 02:07:32,000 Speaker 1: be there. So yeah, I mean, like great and man, 2729 02:07:32,000 --> 02:07:34,560 Speaker 1: a great team, guy, you did it. It worked out 2730 02:07:34,600 --> 02:07:37,800 Speaker 1: for you, You and Lovey Smith will go down and 2731 02:07:37,920 --> 02:07:41,600 Speaker 1: Lord for doing the ultimate sacrifice for the team that 2732 02:07:41,760 --> 02:07:44,040 Speaker 1: doesn't love you back like you love them, but. 2733 02:07:44,880 --> 02:07:50,440 Speaker 7: As love keeps yelling how you love me? Now you 2734 02:07:50,480 --> 02:07:51,160 Speaker 7: see what I did? 2735 02:07:52,160 --> 02:07:58,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saved you, I saved the franchise. But yeah, 2736 02:07:58,240 --> 02:08:01,200 Speaker 1: so I don't know, you know what Ron in those things? 2737 02:08:02,280 --> 02:08:03,960 Speaker 1: I don't get it. I think this is a team though, 2738 02:08:04,000 --> 02:08:05,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't have an identity in terms of like their. 2739 02:08:05,800 --> 02:08:06,440 Speaker 4: Style of play. 2740 02:08:07,680 --> 02:08:09,480 Speaker 1: I don't think the way they play is conducive to 2741 02:08:09,600 --> 02:08:12,480 Speaker 1: winning games with the personnel that they have. They just 2742 02:08:12,600 --> 02:08:15,000 Speaker 1: don't play the right way. So we'll see what Ron 2743 02:08:15,080 --> 02:08:17,280 Speaker 1: Rivera does as the defensive play call it if he 2744 02:08:17,320 --> 02:08:19,040 Speaker 1: can change some of this stuff, if he can better 2745 02:08:19,120 --> 02:08:23,480 Speaker 1: compliment what Eric b Enemy wants to do offensively. But 2746 02:08:24,080 --> 02:08:26,200 Speaker 1: the odds are stacked against his team making a run. 2747 02:08:26,560 --> 02:08:30,600 Speaker 7: You know, they just are well and we usually watch 2748 02:08:30,800 --> 02:08:33,400 Speaker 7: gms and owners come in and they want to build 2749 02:08:33,440 --> 02:08:38,360 Speaker 7: their whole new franchise. Not to mention, you've got celebrity 2750 02:08:39,040 --> 02:08:43,120 Speaker 7: super tweeter and co owner Magic Johnson who does everything 2751 02:08:43,200 --> 02:08:45,200 Speaker 7: he can to let you know what he thought of 2752 02:08:45,240 --> 02:08:49,920 Speaker 7: the performances after each and every turn so you like that, 2753 02:08:50,160 --> 02:08:52,240 Speaker 7: you like that I got the Magic Johnson Twitter game 2754 02:08:52,320 --> 02:08:54,640 Speaker 7: in if you like using debit over credits you and 2755 02:08:54,720 --> 02:08:56,840 Speaker 7: you also get rewarded.

The last game that 2760 02:09:11,640 --> 02:09:16,320 Speaker 7: we saw on Thanksgiving night, San Francisco Seattle has Gino 2761 02:09:16,400 --> 02:09:20,200 Speaker 7: Smith officially turned into a pumpkin or Pete Carroll. Can 2762 02:09:20,280 --> 02:09:22,240 Speaker 7: he still coach one last run out of him? 2763 02:09:25,080 --> 02:09:26,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he's turned the ball over more than we've 2764 02:09:26,840 --> 02:09:29,440 Speaker 1: seen last year, and there's always gonna be a little 2765 02:09:29,480 --> 02:09:30,720 Speaker 1: bit of a market correction. 2766 02:09:31,880 --> 02:09:34,080 Speaker 4: And he makes plays. I love the toughness, I love 2767 02:09:34,120 --> 02:09:35,920 Speaker 4: the leadership stuff to these plays. He just has to 2768 02:09:36,000 --> 02:09:37,280 Speaker 4: take better care of the football. 2769 02:09:38,720 --> 02:09:42,720 Speaker 1: This team, I think maybe we jumped maybe jumped out 2770 02:09:42,720 --> 02:09:45,560 Speaker 1: a little bit too fast because they surprised us last year. 2771 02:09:46,080 --> 02:09:48,480 Speaker 1: We were ready for them to make the next big step, 2772 02:09:48,960 --> 02:09:51,280 Speaker 1: and maybe they're just ready to make a little baby step, 2773 02:09:51,600 --> 02:09:54,320 Speaker 1: you know, get back into the postseason. Maybe they win one, 2774 02:09:55,280 --> 02:09:59,000 Speaker 1: but that's it. I think we got excited because they 2775 02:10:00,080 --> 02:10:02,480 Speaker 1: prizes and we wanted to kind of lump them in 2776 02:10:02,600 --> 02:10:06,400 Speaker 1: with the title contenders. They're not quite that unless Geno 2777 02:10:06,440 --> 02:10:09,760 Speaker 1: Smith over the last six games has a dramatic turn 2778 02:10:10,240 --> 02:10:13,560 Speaker 1: where he plays like MVP caliber Gino played last year. 2779 02:10:13,960 --> 02:10:15,800 Speaker 1: We just haven't seen that Geno show up this year. 2780 02:10:15,960 --> 02:10:18,640 Speaker 7: I guess the bigger question, you know, and I'll ask 2781 02:10:18,720 --> 02:10:21,720 Speaker 7: this for a lot of Fantasy owner self included, how 2782 02:10:21,760 --> 02:10:24,040 Speaker 7: do you figure out how to get DK Metcalf involved 2783 02:10:24,040 --> 02:10:24,680 Speaker 7: in a game early? 2784 02:10:25,920 --> 02:10:28,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's such a weird phenomenon, you. 2785 02:10:28,760 --> 02:10:32,760 Speaker 7: Know, against the commander, how emotional he. 2786 02:10:32,960 --> 02:10:35,080 Speaker 1: Is on the perimeter or two he calls them sometimes 2787 02:10:35,120 --> 02:10:38,600 Speaker 1: with his penalties. A lot of times when you're you're 2788 02:10:38,640 --> 02:10:42,480 Speaker 1: coaching players wide receivers, you have to understand they're the 2789 02:10:42,520 --> 02:10:46,480 Speaker 1: most temperamental players on the team and you have to 2790 02:10:46,640 --> 02:10:49,720 Speaker 1: keep them engaged or you will lose them. Ball has 2791 02:10:49,760 --> 02:10:52,840 Speaker 1: to go in the direction regularly. If we don't, man, 2792 02:10:52,880 --> 02:10:55,880 Speaker 1: they're prone the pout and shake their head and those things, 2793 02:10:56,320 --> 02:10:59,120 Speaker 1: and it's just one of those things that is the 2794 02:10:59,200 --> 02:11:02,480 Speaker 1: way of the world. They all feel like they need 2795 02:11:02,600 --> 02:11:04,400 Speaker 1: the ball, and they need the ball because that's the 2796 02:11:04,480 --> 02:11:06,240 Speaker 1: only way they can make an impact on the game. 2797 02:11:06,640 --> 02:11:09,720 Speaker 1: Otherwise you're just doing wind sprints and calistenics. The only 2798 02:11:09,800 --> 02:11:11,720 Speaker 1: way you can the only way you can do it 2799 02:11:11,880 --> 02:11:13,720 Speaker 1: is you got to touch the rocket. So you just 2800 02:11:13,760 --> 02:11:15,360 Speaker 1: got to make sure that you find a way to 2801 02:11:15,400 --> 02:11:19,040 Speaker 1: get DK Metcalf the ball early and often, and someone 2802 02:11:19,280 --> 02:11:22,360 Speaker 1: on that sideline should be like and everyone laughed at 2803 02:11:22,400 --> 02:11:24,640 Speaker 1: Mike Tights when he talked about the Randy ratio way 2804 02:11:24,760 --> 02:11:27,200 Speaker 1: back in the day, and he talked about, hey, Randy 2805 02:11:27,240 --> 02:11:28,520 Speaker 1: has to do it, but what he's doing is what 2806 02:11:28,960 --> 02:11:31,320 Speaker 1: teams have done for a long time. Play callers should 2807 02:11:31,360 --> 02:11:35,000 Speaker 1: have about six to eight plays that are designed to 2808 02:11:35,160 --> 02:11:38,200 Speaker 1: go to your top wide receiver, your top playmaker, and 2809 02:11:38,480 --> 02:11:40,320 Speaker 1: someone has to remind him. Ay man, he's gone two 2810 02:11:40,400 --> 02:11:42,440 Speaker 1: series without touching the ball. Okay, let's get it out 2811 02:11:42,480 --> 02:11:44,680 Speaker 1: to him to keep them engaged, because what you can 2812 02:11:44,760 --> 02:11:47,600 Speaker 1: do is go three and a half quarters without letting 2813 02:11:47,680 --> 02:11:49,920 Speaker 1: him touch it, and then in the fourth quarter when 2814 02:11:49,920 --> 02:11:52,240 Speaker 1: you need to play, come on, DK, let's make this play. 2815 02:11:52,320 --> 02:11:55,280 Speaker 1: He's like, yo, now you need me. Yeah, Like, you 2816 02:11:55,360 --> 02:11:56,920 Speaker 1: got to keep those guys in gage. 2817 02:11:56,800 --> 02:11:59,400 Speaker 7: Forty three receptions on the year, he's lost over two 2818 02:11:59,480 --> 02:12:04,120 Speaker 7: hundred thousand dollars to find good times there. But yes, 2819 02:12:04,600 --> 02:12:07,040 Speaker 7: running wind sprints, I mean that does keep you looking 2820 02:12:07,120 --> 02:12:10,320 Speaker 7: good in the shape, right, I mean so, I guess 2821 02:12:10,400 --> 02:12:12,960 Speaker 7: there's something Maybe I should do more of those, Bucky. 2822 02:12:13,000 --> 02:12:16,320 Speaker 7: Maybe that's the lesson to be taken from here Friday's game. 2823 02:12:16,720 --> 02:12:19,160 Speaker 7: Let's let's not talk about the game in particular. We 2824 02:12:19,200 --> 02:12:21,000 Speaker 7: can talk about Miami on a bigger show. 2825 02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:23,400 Speaker 1: You want talk about about Zach Wilson, No, I want, 2826 02:12:23,440 --> 02:12:26,000 Speaker 1: I want to talk about Smiff's Zach Wilson. 2827 02:12:26,160 --> 02:12:27,760 Speaker 7: I want to talk about how the Jets made a 2828 02:12:27,800 --> 02:12:31,200 Speaker 7: deal with the devil in the name of Aaron Rodgers. Oh, 2829 02:12:32,360 --> 02:12:36,120 Speaker 7: and they've killed their franchise by doing so. Healthy scratch 2830 02:12:36,280 --> 02:12:41,320 Speaker 7: Alan Lazard. Here have forty four million dollars Randall Cobb 2831 02:12:41,880 --> 02:12:44,160 Speaker 7: and the rest of his band of merryman who can't 2832 02:12:44,200 --> 02:12:47,920 Speaker 7: get on the field because you want to do entice 2833 02:12:48,040 --> 02:12:52,760 Speaker 7: the forty year old quarterback to come and save your franchise. Instead, 2834 02:12:53,000 --> 02:12:54,840 Speaker 7: the Devil's already come to collect. 2835 02:12:55,600 --> 02:13:01,840 Speaker 1: M Yeah that was in the details. Yeah, Yo, Aaron 2836 02:13:01,960 --> 02:13:05,280 Speaker 1: Rodgers brought all of his homies from Green Bay with him, 2837 02:13:05,840 --> 02:13:11,960 Speaker 1: and YO can't forget about it. Yeah, Nathan, you Hackett. 2838 02:13:12,240 --> 02:13:14,720 Speaker 7: I was joking with our guy Jason Cole earlier this week. 2839 02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:18,600 Speaker 7: I go, Hackett, you know, second round of nepotism, Like 2840 02:13:18,680 --> 02:13:20,640 Speaker 7: you got the family thing and now he's like the 2841 02:13:21,080 --> 02:13:22,760 Speaker 7: little brother of Aaron Rodgers. 2842 02:13:23,320 --> 02:13:25,960 Speaker 1: Oh man. So so you do all that, you bring 2843 02:13:26,080 --> 02:13:29,320 Speaker 1: him on board, you get him up and going. You feel, 2844 02:13:29,560 --> 02:13:32,560 Speaker 1: I guess good about you know, Nathan, you being your 2845 02:13:33,200 --> 02:13:34,440 Speaker 1: play caller and that stuff. 2846 02:13:34,480 --> 02:13:37,680 Speaker 4: And it has been absolutely terrible. It has not worked out. 2847 02:13:38,040 --> 02:13:40,160 Speaker 1: They're still trying to run the offense as if Aaron 2848 02:13:40,240 --> 02:13:41,640 Speaker 1: Rodgers is in the game. He's not. 2849 02:13:42,200 --> 02:13:43,800 Speaker 4: They can't move it, they can't run it. 2850 02:13:44,120 --> 02:13:47,440 Speaker 1: People talk about the defense, but the defenses overrated because 2851 02:13:47,480 --> 02:13:49,640 Speaker 1: the defense. I mean, I look at the Browns. The 2852 02:13:49,680 --> 02:13:52,040 Speaker 1: Browns have backup quarterbacks, but that doesn't stop the Browns 2853 02:13:52,120 --> 02:13:56,520 Speaker 1: defense from dominating him winning, you know, like the Jets 2854 02:13:56,560 --> 02:13:59,240 Speaker 1: are supposed to be a defense. In that conversation, they 2855 02:13:59,320 --> 02:14:02,400 Speaker 1: haven't done that. To me, It's just a tremendous indictment 2856 02:14:02,480 --> 02:14:06,960 Speaker 1: on Robert Sala and the front office team and all that. 2857 02:14:07,200 --> 02:14:09,080 Speaker 1: Like they're kind of pouting it front it because their 2858 02:14:09,160 --> 02:14:13,000 Speaker 1: star got hurt. But ultimately that happens in the league. 2859 02:14:13,080 --> 02:14:16,480 Speaker 1: You have to be able to play when your guys 2860 02:14:16,560 --> 02:14:20,600 Speaker 1: aren't available, and it's just exposed the cracks in their 2861 02:14:20,640 --> 02:14:24,000 Speaker 1: team building process that they don't have a dominant offensive 2862 02:14:24,040 --> 02:14:27,240 Speaker 1: line and they don't have a way of winning when 2863 02:14:27,320 --> 02:14:31,440 Speaker 1: they're I guess their preferred path has been blocked. 2864 02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:34,760 Speaker 7: What's funny is Robert Sala also went out of his 2865 02:14:34,920 --> 02:14:39,000 Speaker 7: way to side swipe Brest Hall in the process. It 2866 02:14:39,160 --> 02:14:42,360 Speaker 7: was like, you know, Brandon Staley after last week's loss, 2867 02:14:42,480 --> 02:14:45,080 Speaker 7: going after the reporter about his defense. Oh, I'm calling 2868 02:14:45,120 --> 02:14:47,560 Speaker 7: the defense and we don't ask you that question, and 2869 02:14:47,640 --> 02:14:51,000 Speaker 7: then proceeded to call out every offensive player or we 2870 02:14:51,040 --> 02:14:53,120 Speaker 7: had to drop here, we had this, here, we had 2871 02:14:53,160 --> 02:14:57,120 Speaker 7: a fumble, all true, but your defense when they needed 2872 02:14:57,160 --> 02:15:00,640 Speaker 7: to stop. You know, the Randy Van Warre, We're a classic. 2873 02:15:00,720 --> 02:15:05,240 Speaker 7: There you go, leaving no pop culture reference and stone unturned. 2874 02:15:05,760 --> 02:15:07,920 Speaker 7: You left me just when I needed your most. I 2875 02:15:08,000 --> 02:15:10,880 Speaker 7: needed to play. You didn't get me one d And 2876 02:15:11,080 --> 02:15:13,560 Speaker 7: now you know you're looking at the same thing with 2877 02:15:13,720 --> 02:15:17,120 Speaker 7: Robert Sala. The defense has shown cracked and yes, your 2878 02:15:17,160 --> 02:15:20,600 Speaker 7: offense isn't working. But instead of you know, talking about 2879 02:15:20,640 --> 02:15:22,200 Speaker 7: the play caller and say no, no, no, there's no 2880 02:15:22,440 --> 02:15:26,040 Speaker 7: you know thing imminent. There no change underway. It's Breessee 2881 02:15:26,080 --> 02:15:28,320 Speaker 7: Hall has to take what's there instead of looking for 2882 02:15:28,440 --> 02:15:31,120 Speaker 7: home runs, like the only way you're competitive that guy 2883 02:15:31,240 --> 02:15:34,040 Speaker 7: hits a home run like that. We just have to 2884 02:15:34,160 --> 02:15:37,800 Speaker 7: recognize that at some point, right, Because Garrett Wilson can 2885 02:15:37,880 --> 02:15:40,320 Speaker 7: only win so much, and there's a lot of criticism 2886 02:15:40,400 --> 02:15:42,560 Speaker 7: of him, just like I saw some folks going after 2887 02:15:42,640 --> 02:15:46,000 Speaker 7: Marvin Harrison Junior after the Ohio State loss for a 2888 02:15:46,040 --> 02:15:49,560 Speaker 7: couple of routes and fighting through the balls or whatever. Said, 2889 02:15:49,560 --> 02:15:52,000 Speaker 7: think Garrett Wilson could maybe do a little more every 2890 02:15:52,040 --> 02:15:54,480 Speaker 7: now and again. But he's a one man gang on 2891 02:15:54,600 --> 02:15:58,360 Speaker 7: that side, right, That's all you got, so calling out 2892 02:15:58,400 --> 02:16:01,960 Speaker 7: your offensive players when everything's lailing around you. It's the 2893 02:16:02,040 --> 02:16:05,800 Speaker 7: year of coaches and excuse making at a higher level 2894 02:16:05,840 --> 02:16:06,720 Speaker 7: than I think I've ever seen. 2895 02:16:06,800 --> 02:16:07,080 Speaker 4: Bucky. 2896 02:16:08,760 --> 02:16:11,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it has to be like just to discrugine, 2897 02:16:11,920 --> 02:16:15,200 Speaker 1: you have to look at them and you have to see. 2898 02:16:15,920 --> 02:16:18,080 Speaker 1: To me, I'm always impressed with the coaches that can 2899 02:16:18,120 --> 02:16:22,040 Speaker 1: do the most with the least, right Mike Tomlin, that crew, 2900 02:16:22,160 --> 02:16:24,120 Speaker 1: they can't score a drop, but yet here they are 2901 02:16:24,640 --> 02:16:26,880 Speaker 1: sitting in position to get into the tournament and maybe 2902 02:16:26,960 --> 02:16:30,680 Speaker 1: win the AFC North without an offense, an offense they 2903 02:16:30,720 --> 02:16:33,560 Speaker 1: couldn't score, they still able to do it. So the 2904 02:16:33,720 --> 02:16:37,000 Speaker 1: excuses and we don't have our guy the season. Hey man, 2905 02:16:38,320 --> 02:16:41,160 Speaker 1: it's hard. It's hard coaching in this league, and you 2906 02:16:41,280 --> 02:16:42,760 Speaker 1: have to figure out a way to do what you 2907 02:16:42,879 --> 02:16:46,240 Speaker 1: can with what you have. And some teams can do that, 2908 02:16:46,440 --> 02:16:49,440 Speaker 1: other teams can't. But we on our side need to 2909 02:16:49,480 --> 02:16:51,800 Speaker 1: make sure that we hold those teams accountable and players 2910 02:16:51,800 --> 02:16:54,240 Speaker 1: accountable for no, no, no, no, you got enough because 2911 02:16:54,240 --> 02:16:56,600 Speaker 1: you said we just need this piece and that piece, 2912 02:16:56,680 --> 02:16:58,800 Speaker 1: and just think about all the things that they've done 2913 02:16:58,840 --> 02:17:01,760 Speaker 1: over the last year or two to beef up the offense. 2914 02:17:02,120 --> 02:17:05,200 Speaker 1: Well you said that's all you needed, We got it. 2915 02:17:05,280 --> 02:17:06,320 Speaker 1: You got to be able to win with it, and 2916 02:17:06,360 --> 02:17:07,200 Speaker 1: they had been able to do it. 2917 02:17:07,320 --> 02:17:09,680 Speaker 7: Well. I think the other thing with Tomblin, you know, 2918 02:17:09,920 --> 02:17:13,520 Speaker 7: just to you know, punctuate it is the appreciation has 2919 02:17:13,520 --> 02:17:15,000 Speaker 7: always been there. He's given us a lot of great 2920 02:17:15,040 --> 02:17:17,680 Speaker 7: soundbites through the year, but he says what he needs 2921 02:17:17,720 --> 02:17:20,880 Speaker 7: to without wearing anybody out directly. Right, it would be 2922 02:17:21,040 --> 02:17:24,959 Speaker 7: very easy to have gone after players or after Canada 2923 02:17:25,160 --> 02:17:27,760 Speaker 7: or whatever. Never let him see you sweat in front 2924 02:17:27,800 --> 02:17:30,440 Speaker 7: of the cameras right behind the scenes, he may have 2925 02:17:30,520 --> 02:17:34,040 Speaker 7: been throwing chairs and losing his mind right when he 2926 02:17:34,320 --> 02:17:36,480 Speaker 7: had a very calm press conference and then the next 2927 02:17:36,560 --> 02:17:39,160 Speaker 7: day you get the announcement that Canada had been fired 2928 02:17:39,160 --> 02:17:41,760 Speaker 7: and went to the podium. Matter of factly, here it is. 2929 02:17:41,840 --> 02:17:42,320 Speaker 6: We move on. 2930 02:17:43,080 --> 02:17:46,760 Speaker 7: Wish him well so as opposed to you know my 2931 02:17:47,040 --> 02:17:49,360 Speaker 7: you know my job and blah blah blah, like you 2932 02:17:49,440 --> 02:17:50,120 Speaker 7: know the history on. 2933 02:17:50,200 --> 02:17:53,920 Speaker 1: Its uh nah, to the point, hey man, looks it's 2934 02:17:53,920 --> 02:17:55,039 Speaker 1: about scoring touchdowns. 2935 02:17:55,080 --> 02:17:55,879 Speaker 4: We got to get better. 2936 02:17:55,959 --> 02:17:59,680 Speaker 1: It's not all on him, but ultimately had to make 2937 02:17:59,720 --> 02:18:02,119 Speaker 1: it DECI slept on it. Didn't like the way it looks. 2938 02:18:02,160 --> 02:18:07,360 Speaker 1: So here we are, and then we moved to absolutely 2939 02:18:07,480 --> 02:18:09,000 Speaker 1: we're going. 2940 02:18:09,120 --> 02:18:09,440 Speaker 4: We're going. 2941 02:18:09,560 --> 02:18:11,000 Speaker 1: We're going to the next We got to figure out 2942 02:18:11,000 --> 02:18:12,920 Speaker 1: a way to kind of get it, to get it done, 2943 02:18:12,959 --> 02:18:14,640 Speaker 1: and we will figure out a way to get it done. 2944 02:18:14,760 --> 02:18:16,120 Speaker 1: He's the only way to do it. 2945 02:18:16,240 --> 02:18:18,000 Speaker 7: That's the only way to do it.

Bucky. You know we've we've all 2965 02:19:27,080 --> 02:19:29,800 Speaker 7: talked a little bit over the course of the week, uh, 2966 02:19:29,920 --> 02:19:33,360 Speaker 7: And getting into the holiday holiday holiday, hopefully everybody had 2967 02:19:33,400 --> 02:19:36,800 Speaker 7: a good time and getting around to and from safely. 2968 02:19:37,000 --> 02:19:39,520 Speaker 7: Maybe you've got one last day of gluttony and family 2969 02:19:39,640 --> 02:19:42,120 Speaker 7: before you get back after it. H be kind to 2970 02:19:42,160 --> 02:19:43,760 Speaker 7: each other on the road and take us wherever you go. 2971 02:19:43,879 --> 02:19:46,680 Speaker 7: On the iHeartRadio app, one of the stories that's gone 2972 02:19:46,720 --> 02:19:49,720 Speaker 7: on is Tom Brady, uh doing a little bit of 2973 02:19:49,879 --> 02:19:52,760 Speaker 7: bemoaning the current state of the NFL. You know when 2974 02:19:52,760 --> 02:19:56,560 Speaker 7: we start talking about parody slash mediocrity, and it's a 2975 02:19:56,640 --> 02:19:58,760 Speaker 7: drum that I think you and I have. We've talked 2976 02:19:58,760 --> 02:20:00,680 Speaker 7: about it, we've been working together. They're here at Fox 2977 02:20:00,720 --> 02:20:03,520 Speaker 7: Sports Radio for a while. And you have a lot 2978 02:20:03,600 --> 02:20:07,480 Speaker 7: of changes with rules, a lot of changes in the product. 2979 02:20:08,240 --> 02:20:12,720 Speaker 7: Perhaps you know, the forcing of quarterbacks into action because 2980 02:20:12,760 --> 02:20:17,000 Speaker 7: you need that immediate return on your investment. Oftentimes that 2981 02:20:17,160 --> 02:20:21,280 Speaker 7: goes awry. Sometimes you're fooled by the collegiate experience. Not 2982 02:20:21,400 --> 02:20:24,920 Speaker 7: to mention, let's face it, owners are impatient, perhaps more so, 2983 02:20:25,040 --> 02:20:26,360 Speaker 7: I think we should need to we need to do 2984 02:20:26,520 --> 02:20:30,560 Speaker 7: the deep dive on the gestation process for head coaches, 2985 02:20:31,000 --> 02:20:35,959 Speaker 7: coordinators and gms across the league as to how quickly 2986 02:20:36,040 --> 02:20:39,840 Speaker 7: some of these get cycled out. But Brady's comments made 2987 02:20:39,879 --> 02:20:43,640 Speaker 7: a lot of noise, and deservedly so. He is who 2988 02:20:43,680 --> 02:20:43,920 Speaker 7: he is. 2989 02:20:44,400 --> 02:20:44,520 Speaker 1: Uh. 2990 02:20:44,879 --> 02:20:48,880 Speaker 7: We got a quote back from Barry Sanders, right, you 2991 02:20:49,000 --> 02:20:53,000 Speaker 7: got the new documentary out the Run Berry Run some 2992 02:20:53,160 --> 02:20:56,280 Speaker 7: great stuff. Earlier this week, I had Bernie Fratto in 2993 02:20:56,440 --> 02:20:59,680 Speaker 7: with me one of the nights, and he having covered 2994 02:21:00,080 --> 02:21:02,800 Speaker 7: those Lions teams. There was a great retort from Scott 2995 02:21:02,879 --> 02:21:05,720 Speaker 7: Mitchell because while folks came at him, you know, if 2996 02:21:05,760 --> 02:21:09,560 Speaker 7: they had a quarterback, if I'd had a quarterback, Wayne Fonz, 2997 02:21:09,760 --> 02:21:13,520 Speaker 7: we would have won. Like, well, hold on, now, Mitchell 2998 02:21:13,560 --> 02:21:16,400 Speaker 7: put up some numbers for you did struggle at times. 2999 02:21:16,440 --> 02:21:21,000 Speaker 7: But Barry Sanders went on RG three's podcast and well, 3000 02:21:21,080 --> 02:21:24,680 Speaker 7: he responded to Brady's conversation. I thought it was kind 3001 02:21:24,680 --> 02:21:27,160 Speaker 7: of an interesting take quote. Maybe he's talking about the 3002 02:21:27,200 --> 02:21:29,760 Speaker 7: teams he played for, but the team I played for, 3003 02:21:30,280 --> 02:21:32,160 Speaker 7: the team that I played for, No, no, no, no, no, 3004 02:21:32,360 --> 02:21:35,560 Speaker 7: it's anything but mediocre. I saw that comment. Look for 3005 02:21:35,720 --> 02:21:38,040 Speaker 7: us as Lions fans, and maybe I had the blinders 3006 02:21:38,080 --> 02:21:40,240 Speaker 7: on because of how we're leading the division, how well 3007 02:21:40,280 --> 02:21:42,320 Speaker 7: we're playing. But I still see it as a breat 3008 02:21:42,480 --> 02:21:47,080 Speaker 7: great product. Still see great teams at a very popular game. Well, yeah, 3009 02:21:47,200 --> 02:21:50,440 Speaker 7: the popularity you can't deny. You see the crazy numbers, 3010 02:21:50,800 --> 02:21:53,879 Speaker 7: whether it was for Dolly Parton in a Dallas Cowboys 3011 02:21:54,000 --> 02:21:58,440 Speaker 7: cheerleaders uniform, or how however whatever else drew people around 3012 02:21:58,560 --> 02:22:01,520 Speaker 7: like it. Huh Hey, I like that. She just got 3013 02:22:01,560 --> 02:22:01,960 Speaker 7: after it. 3014 02:22:02,040 --> 02:22:04,959 Speaker 1: Man, you liked like Dolly bringing it back. 3015 02:22:05,240 --> 02:22:07,280 Speaker 7: You know what, Bucky, It always comes back to this. 3016 02:22:07,600 --> 02:22:10,360 Speaker 7: You know, B A B who you are and if 3017 02:22:10,400 --> 02:22:14,760 Speaker 7: you want to wear that, own it right. Seventy seven 3018 02:22:14,840 --> 02:22:18,520 Speaker 7: years old released a rock album this year, went. 3019 02:22:18,400 --> 02:22:19,879 Speaker 3: Into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. 3020 02:22:20,760 --> 02:22:25,000 Speaker 7: She's done countless good works behind the scenes, beloved universally. 3021 02:22:25,800 --> 02:22:29,240 Speaker 7: Hey man, you rock your thing, and clearly Tony Romo 3022 02:22:29,320 --> 02:22:32,040 Speaker 7: made Jim Nance really uncomfortable in the booth. Did you 3023 02:22:32,080 --> 02:22:36,720 Speaker 7: see that quinch? Because they come back from halftime and 3024 02:22:37,280 --> 02:22:39,920 Speaker 7: Romo references it and you can see Nance like that 3025 02:22:40,040 --> 02:22:42,360 Speaker 7: was af air. Man, that was affair. We should be 3026 02:22:42,480 --> 02:22:48,080 Speaker 7: talking about this, but yeah, man, yeah, so well, look 3027 02:22:48,120 --> 02:22:50,280 Speaker 7: it was better than that other guy, that Harlow character 3028 02:22:50,440 --> 02:22:51,440 Speaker 7: that was in the early game. 3029 02:22:51,600 --> 02:22:52,480 Speaker 4: Oh Jack Harlow. 3030 02:22:52,560 --> 02:22:53,760 Speaker 1: You didn't like the halftime show. 3031 02:22:54,080 --> 02:22:55,879 Speaker 7: I thought it was It just looked low rent. 3032 02:22:56,720 --> 02:22:58,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, my family wasn't excited about. 3033 02:22:58,320 --> 02:23:00,560 Speaker 7: I think folks were kind of laughing about the Oriental 3034 02:23:00,680 --> 02:23:03,840 Speaker 7: Trading Company jokes. I got that for sixty nine to 3035 02:23:03,920 --> 02:23:10,200 Speaker 7: ninety five from my lawn Yeah, it didn't didn't really, 3036 02:23:11,240 --> 02:23:14,440 Speaker 7: it didn't really, it didn't really resonate. No, not quite 3037 02:23:14,480 --> 02:23:16,480 Speaker 7: the same way. And look, I wish the man well, 3038 02:23:16,720 --> 02:23:19,080 Speaker 7: I got no ill will whatever, whatever you're doing. I 3039 02:23:19,200 --> 02:23:22,400 Speaker 7: was checking on the meal I was cooking anyway during 3040 02:23:22,480 --> 02:23:25,200 Speaker 7: that part of the telecast, I gotta be honest, I 3041 02:23:25,400 --> 02:23:28,440 Speaker 7: was a little bit of audio in the background as 3042 02:23:28,520 --> 02:23:31,520 Speaker 7: the girls fought for the remote control to get away 3043 02:23:31,560 --> 02:23:36,800 Speaker 7: from football and make Dad watch some marathon of some 3044 02:23:36,920 --> 02:23:39,160 Speaker 7: other show I've never heard of, which is fine. I mean, 3045 02:23:39,200 --> 02:23:42,640 Speaker 7: that's the way it works. But for today, Browning is 3046 02:23:42,720 --> 02:23:45,400 Speaker 7: going to be the fiftieth quarterback to start a game, 3047 02:23:45,680 --> 02:23:48,400 Speaker 7: which is actually behind the pace of last year where 3048 02:23:48,440 --> 02:23:51,480 Speaker 7: we had fifty three at this time, Bucky, and we 3049 02:23:51,600 --> 02:23:55,560 Speaker 7: see the change of rules and you know, lack of practices. 3050 02:23:56,200 --> 02:23:58,480 Speaker 7: I'm not even talking about hey, getting after it and 3051 02:23:58,640 --> 02:24:01,280 Speaker 7: hitting in practice, which is a whole other part to 3052 02:24:01,360 --> 02:24:05,880 Speaker 7: the equation, but fewer practice days what's negotiated in the CBA. 3053 02:24:06,360 --> 02:24:10,440 Speaker 7: We've got a dearth of quality offensive and defensive lineman 3054 02:24:10,480 --> 02:24:13,199 Speaker 7: throughout the year, which is why we have the clamoring 3055 02:24:13,320 --> 02:24:17,120 Speaker 7: for guys when they become available as free agents that 3056 02:24:17,280 --> 02:24:20,480 Speaker 7: we see and why a team like the Eagles that 3057 02:24:21,040 --> 02:24:24,160 Speaker 7: they make that the point of emphasis and lo and behold. 3058 02:24:24,400 --> 02:24:26,880 Speaker 7: They don't have to win pretty, but they're there at 3059 02:24:26,920 --> 02:24:29,960 Speaker 7: the end because they've got the offensive line play to 3060 02:24:30,080 --> 02:24:33,000 Speaker 7: help the process. So yeah, I think Barry Sanders has 3061 02:24:33,080 --> 02:24:35,640 Speaker 7: the Lions blinders on to the league as a whole. 3062 02:24:36,080 --> 02:24:38,400 Speaker 7: It's still a great product. I still celebrate all two 3063 02:24:38,480 --> 02:24:40,520 Speaker 7: hundred and seventy two of them. Some just have to 3064 02:24:40,640 --> 02:24:44,840 Speaker 7: rank last. But I don't think Brady's necessarily wrong. I 3065 02:24:44,879 --> 02:24:49,199 Speaker 7: don't think it's as easy as many tried to determine 3066 02:24:49,240 --> 02:24:52,280 Speaker 7: as a get off my long guy. Now that you're retired, 3067 02:24:52,760 --> 02:24:55,280 Speaker 7: I think you're in it. You fight for what's going 3068 02:24:55,360 --> 02:24:57,880 Speaker 7: to help you, but you can be realistic once you 3069 02:24:58,400 --> 02:24:59,920 Speaker 7: remove yourself from the white lines. 3070 02:25:01,240 --> 02:25:01,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 3071 02:25:01,480 --> 02:25:02,760 Speaker 4: No, Look, I don't think. 3072 02:25:04,240 --> 02:25:06,400 Speaker 1: Just because he may have whined and begged for calls 3073 02:25:06,600 --> 02:25:09,280 Speaker 1: in the moment, I still don't think that precludes him 3074 02:25:09,280 --> 02:25:10,560 Speaker 1: from being able to realistically. 3075 02:25:10,680 --> 02:25:11,400 Speaker 4: Look at the league. 3076 02:25:11,760 --> 02:25:14,040 Speaker 1: Tom Brady came in the league. Remember he played twenty 3077 02:25:14,120 --> 02:25:15,640 Speaker 1: one years, so when he came in the league, the 3078 02:25:15,720 --> 02:25:18,040 Speaker 1: league was one way. He came in right as I 3079 02:25:18,200 --> 02:25:21,080 Speaker 1: was ushered like ushered out of the league, and so 3080 02:25:21,600 --> 02:25:23,440 Speaker 1: it was a more physical game. It was a game 3081 02:25:23,520 --> 02:25:26,400 Speaker 1: that was driven through the running backs. It was one 3082 02:25:26,480 --> 02:25:30,000 Speaker 1: that physicality and toughness was everything, and you built your 3083 02:25:30,040 --> 02:25:34,080 Speaker 1: teams that way. When he talks about like protecting the 3084 02:25:34,240 --> 02:25:37,720 Speaker 1: offensive players, yeah, if you ventured across the middle, you 3085 02:25:37,840 --> 02:25:39,760 Speaker 1: have to remember some of the safeties that were playing 3086 02:25:39,800 --> 02:25:41,640 Speaker 1: at the time. On his own team, he had Lawyer 3087 02:25:41,760 --> 02:25:45,480 Speaker 1: Malloy and then he had Rodney Harrison. There were still 3088 02:25:45,640 --> 02:25:49,800 Speaker 1: like these big, physical safeties that were patrolling the middle 3089 02:25:49,800 --> 02:25:51,680 Speaker 1: of the field. And so if you did throw the 3090 02:25:51,760 --> 02:25:54,600 Speaker 1: ball high, you led your guy into a blow up. 3091 02:25:55,040 --> 02:25:57,200 Speaker 1: You gut me not get up. And so when he 3092 02:25:57,280 --> 02:25:59,960 Speaker 1: talks about quarterback play and a we're trying to legislate 3093 02:26:00,160 --> 02:26:04,520 Speaker 1: these things out where defensive guys can't hit quarterbacks, I 3094 02:26:04,560 --> 02:26:08,880 Speaker 1: mean wide receivers for their quarterbacks making mistakes. Hey, that's 3095 02:26:08,920 --> 02:26:12,520 Speaker 1: a quarterback problem. That's not a defender's problem. My job 3096 02:26:12,680 --> 02:26:16,920 Speaker 1: isn't to Hey, you're DEFENSI leads defenseless. Let me take 3097 02:26:16,959 --> 02:26:20,440 Speaker 1: care of you at my own expense. No, don't throw 3098 02:26:20,520 --> 02:26:24,120 Speaker 1: him the ball in the thicky briar. And then we 3099 02:26:24,160 --> 02:26:26,680 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about you know. And so I 3100 02:26:26,760 --> 02:26:29,640 Speaker 1: think Tom has some points. I think the league, you know, 3101 02:26:29,800 --> 02:26:32,800 Speaker 1: and the players, have been chiefly responsible this. They cut 3102 02:26:32,879 --> 02:26:35,520 Speaker 1: back the amount of time that teams could spend with 3103 02:26:35,640 --> 02:26:39,560 Speaker 1: players in the offseason, and so what you're getting is 3104 02:26:39,760 --> 02:26:42,400 Speaker 1: this bad product at the beginning of the year because 3105 02:26:42,480 --> 02:26:46,760 Speaker 1: everyone's trying to relearn how to play football. Whereas before 3106 02:26:46,879 --> 02:26:50,200 Speaker 1: you would have a longer, more comprehensive offseason where you 3107 02:26:50,200 --> 02:26:53,760 Speaker 1: could work with the offensive and defensive lineman. Yeah, you're 3108 02:26:53,800 --> 02:26:56,240 Speaker 1: running pass, but the physicality was there, but you were 3109 02:26:56,360 --> 02:26:59,920 Speaker 1: practicing to get your team ready. That stuff doesn't exist, 3110 02:27:00,520 --> 02:27:02,720 Speaker 1: and so it does look a little different the first 3111 02:27:02,920 --> 02:27:05,840 Speaker 1: eight to ten weeks because people are relearning how to 3112 02:27:05,879 --> 02:27:08,160 Speaker 1: play the game at the highest level. 3113 02:27:08,680 --> 02:27:11,920 Speaker 7: Well, I think you mentioned, you know, guys on his team. 3114 02:27:12,480 --> 02:27:16,039 Speaker 7: He was also throwing against Ed Reid. And remember when 3115 02:27:16,080 --> 02:27:18,600 Speaker 7: he was available to play. There was no better missile 3116 02:27:19,080 --> 02:27:21,880 Speaker 7: in the secondary of a team than Bob Sanders of 3117 02:27:21,959 --> 02:27:25,039 Speaker 7: the Indianapolis Colts, who they kept meeting in the playoffs 3118 02:27:25,160 --> 02:27:25,720 Speaker 7: year after year. 3119 02:27:25,879 --> 02:27:29,600 Speaker 1: I mean, think about it, Bob Sanders, Troy Polamalu, Brian 3120 02:27:29,680 --> 02:27:33,960 Speaker 1: Dawkins was still playing. I mean, you had thumpers playing, 3121 02:27:34,600 --> 02:27:37,880 Speaker 1: guys that loved content.

I mean, it's the talk of the world 3201 02:31:48,520 --> 02:31:50,760 Speaker 7: the last couple of weeks talking about how do you 3202 02:31:50,920 --> 02:31:53,200 Speaker 7: legislate it out. I know, things got pretty heated the 3203 02:31:53,280 --> 02:31:57,400 Speaker 7: other day Richard Sherman and Skip Bayless over on FS 3204 02:31:57,520 --> 02:32:01,000 Speaker 7: one related this one. I've tried to look at it 3205 02:32:01,560 --> 02:32:04,039 Speaker 7: and try to be a pragmatist. You know this, Bucky 3206 02:32:04,560 --> 02:32:06,480 Speaker 7: a little bit of hot takery now and again, but 3207 02:32:06,920 --> 02:32:09,560 Speaker 7: usually try to pull things back. I don't know how 3208 02:32:09,600 --> 02:32:12,080 Speaker 7: you do it right. Sherman's arguments like what am I 3209 02:32:12,160 --> 02:32:14,840 Speaker 7: gonna do? Let you just go right if I can't 3210 02:32:14,879 --> 02:32:17,440 Speaker 7: get a good angle on you, because otherwise, I think 3211 02:32:17,440 --> 02:32:20,080 Speaker 7: all you're doing is encouraging guys to get back to launching, 3212 02:32:20,520 --> 02:32:24,760 Speaker 7: to just try to knock get the knockdown blow instead 3213 02:32:24,800 --> 02:32:28,160 Speaker 7: of you know, legislating that out. So I think you 3214 02:32:28,520 --> 02:32:32,400 Speaker 7: open the door some other things in terms of this process. 3215 02:32:34,200 --> 02:32:36,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you do open the door. 3216 02:32:36,400 --> 02:32:39,200 Speaker 1: So here's the thing, and what I want everyone to 3217 02:32:39,320 --> 02:32:42,560 Speaker 1: understand is when you're looking at replays of games that 3218 02:32:42,680 --> 02:32:45,080 Speaker 1: has slowed down, I mean to the ninth degree it 3219 02:32:45,200 --> 02:32:48,720 Speaker 1: is super slow or whatever. But what happens in game 3220 02:32:48,800 --> 02:32:51,680 Speaker 1: in real time you have to make a snap judgment 3221 02:32:51,959 --> 02:32:53,480 Speaker 1: or how am I going to get this player down? 3222 02:32:53,840 --> 02:32:55,680 Speaker 1: And a lot of times, if you're a defensive back 3223 02:32:55,720 --> 02:32:57,400 Speaker 1: and you're trying to tackle a running back, there's two 3224 02:32:57,440 --> 02:32:59,360 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five pounds, or a tied end there's 3225 02:32:59,360 --> 02:33:02,640 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty pounds. I'll be honest with you. 3226 02:33:03,200 --> 02:33:06,160 Speaker 1: They taught me into pros by any means necessary, right, whatever, 3227 02:33:06,200 --> 02:33:08,680 Speaker 1: you gotta do get him down. If you have to 3228 02:33:08,760 --> 02:33:11,400 Speaker 1: grab him, if you have to wrap your legs around 3229 02:33:11,480 --> 02:33:14,360 Speaker 1: his legs to pull them down. The number one thing 3230 02:33:14,560 --> 02:33:17,600 Speaker 1: is to get him to the ground. Don't let someone 3231 02:33:17,720 --> 02:33:20,680 Speaker 1: run through the secondary and score. And so when people 3232 02:33:20,840 --> 02:33:23,360 Speaker 1: talk about the hip drop tackle and people grabbing them 3233 02:33:23,400 --> 02:33:28,440 Speaker 1: from behind, no, nobody goes through the league saying, hey, 3234 02:33:28,600 --> 02:33:30,960 Speaker 1: this is how I want to tackle guys. But in 3235 02:33:31,160 --> 02:33:34,480 Speaker 1: the moment, you're literally trying to grab anything in everything 3236 02:33:34,560 --> 02:33:36,480 Speaker 1: to pull a guy down, stop him from scoring. 3237 02:33:36,640 --> 02:33:40,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a tough proposition, certainly curious to hear. There's 3238 02:33:40,600 --> 02:33:43,400 Speaker 7: a scuttle but that comes out of competition committee about 3239 02:33:43,400 --> 02:33:45,400 Speaker 7: that one at Bucky Brooks where you find him on 3240 02:33:45,440 --> 02:33:48,000 Speaker 7: twyn to find me over at Swollen Dome. We'll continue 3241 02:33:48,400 --> 02:33:50,879 Speaker 7: on Fox Football Sunday coming up next with a couple 3242 02:33:50,920 --> 02:33:54,840 Speaker 7: of game evaluations.

I have a lot of problems 3274 02:35:27,879 --> 02:35:31,800 Speaker 7: with a report that has could and as early as 3275 02:35:32,440 --> 02:35:37,240 Speaker 7: in such a rapid fire kind of reporting style there. 3276 02:35:39,160 --> 02:35:42,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it is really vague. Look here's what 3277 02:35:42,879 --> 02:35:46,560 Speaker 1: I think about Aaron Rodgers coming back. If the Jets 3278 02:35:46,600 --> 02:35:49,879 Speaker 1: aren't in a position to seriously contend for a playoffs. 3279 02:35:49,440 --> 02:35:50,360 Speaker 4: Why would you bring him back? 3280 02:35:50,480 --> 02:35:52,400 Speaker 1: Yes, Like, what's the point. I know he wants to 3281 02:35:52,480 --> 02:35:54,960 Speaker 1: show off that he's a medical marvel to all of 3282 02:35:55,000 --> 02:35:57,240 Speaker 1: his buddies and all that other stuff, but you got 3283 02:35:57,360 --> 02:35:59,920 Speaker 1: to protect the player against himself. If they are out 3284 02:36:00,080 --> 02:36:02,200 Speaker 1: of the mix, there's no reason to bring him back. 3285 02:36:02,520 --> 02:36:04,760 Speaker 1: Get him fully healthy. You have one more year to 3286 02:36:04,840 --> 02:36:07,440 Speaker 1: really run with him, and then the Aaron Rodgers era 3287 02:36:07,680 --> 02:36:10,560 Speaker 1: is over. So I want to make sure that if 3288 02:36:10,560 --> 02:36:13,280 Speaker 1: he's not playing this year, I want and we're not 3289 02:36:13,360 --> 02:36:14,480 Speaker 1: going to the playoffs. 3290 02:36:14,120 --> 02:36:15,600 Speaker 4: Let's make sure next year he's ready to go. 3291 02:36:15,680 --> 02:36:18,320 Speaker 1: And we can make a legitimate run at a playoff 3292 02:36:18,360 --> 02:36:19,600 Speaker 1: spot and that stuff. 3293 02:36:19,760 --> 02:36:22,440 Speaker 7: You know what, I could start training for mister Olympia 3294 02:36:22,560 --> 02:36:24,280 Speaker 7: as early as this afternoon. 3295 02:36:25,440 --> 02:36:27,480 Speaker 1: Oh, I like that, start trying. 3296 02:36:28,040 --> 02:36:29,760 Speaker 7: Just I mean, that's about as good as the Aaron 3297 02:36:29,840 --> 02:36:33,320 Speaker 7: Rodgers reporting at this point. Uh. You know, we we 3298 02:36:33,440 --> 02:36:36,720 Speaker 7: actually did three minutes of Indiana football last hour. So 3299 02:36:36,800 --> 02:36:38,640 Speaker 7: I'd be remiss if I failed to point out that 3300 02:36:38,760 --> 02:36:43,080 Speaker 7: Tom Allen has been relieved of his duties.
