Credit to Dak, to Tavon, 18 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: to Scott Lenahan, Nate's guy. That was like a huge 19 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: breath of oxygen for Cowboys fans. A vertical passing game. 20 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: This was an asphyxiation for Giants fans because Eli I mean, 21 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: he's down ten nothing. Just watch He's gonna be down 22 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: ten nothing for a long time because Nate Sola doesn't 23 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: make the block. There is a sack by the Dallas Cowboys, 24 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: Taco Charlton. You can count at home if you want to. 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: It's a Good Morning Football home edition. Ten nothing. Still 26 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: Eli dropping back. Guess what happens? He gets tackled by 27 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: Cavon Frasier. Don't let Cavon get hot, guys, he will 28 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: go He'll go big, and he did for the loss 29 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: of eleven yards. Next Giants possession ten nothing. Score. You 30 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: guessed it. DeMarcus Lawrence with an Eli sack. Oh no, 31 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: Eli said, yep, this is really happening. That face was everywhere. 32 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: You think you've seen enough manning faces. That was an 33 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: all timer. Not his fault. Lookout because neither is that. 34 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: Damien Wilson, Taco Charlton, you name it, Nate said, the 35 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: Taco shuttles is doing the Taco bar celebration. Everybody's coming 36 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: over and getting fit. You know, sometimes even when it's 37 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: that on the nose, it's still entertaining. I don't care. 38 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: I guess it could eat it could be. No he 39 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: was eating giants more pass rush. Jason Garrett loves the 40 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: clap a lot to clap for it. Last night, thirteen nothing, 41 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: Eli Sakon off something nice spin move. He had a 42 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: lot of those. He also had a lot of receptions. 43 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: I think the Giants offense is just dump it. To say, Quan, 44 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: that is not an offense. Thirteen nothing, Elisa's a right. 45 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: I gonna take mad his my own hand. I've been 46 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: in this league a long time. I can run the football. 47 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: You get down, shoh no down, get down now, get 48 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: out of head, do it jailing playing the role of 49 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: the predator. Look out other like a kindergarten cop. Oh yeah, no, 50 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: that's who should daddy. And daddy is Archibald. He's not 51 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: there last night. It is not a daddy. Is the Cowboys? Yes? 52 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: Boys have it this girls? No, never mind. I had 53 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: the Predator movie do over the weekend new one came out. 54 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: I didn't see it. Yeah. I think they didn't like 55 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: the Giants all right. Thirteen three, zeke. The Giants don't 56 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: want a scorning point, so you have to do in 57 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: this game to win. So just put this thing to bed. 58 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: Fourth quarter. He's running, he's eating, he's feeding. That's the Predator, 59 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: last one. Put it to bed. Put it to bed. 60 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: Everyone has to go to sleep, because I honestly, this 61 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: game was tedious. I'm just gonna say, Giants fans you 62 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. Those fans of the Cowboys 63 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: loved it. And this was fun for Dallas. If you're 64 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: a big fan of America's team, it was a nice 65 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: little night. But oh my god, the Big Blue they 66 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: start owing two for the first time since all the 67 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 1: way back in the year twenty seventeen. Cowboys twenty, Giants thirteen. Eli, 68 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: what is going on? Man? Has like that or where 69 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: it's not going great? But you just keep yeah, you 70 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: keep hanging in there, you keep trying to, you know, 71 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: buy some time, move around and just knowing you, hey, 72 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: you're one you maybe one play away from changing the 73 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: game or hitting a big one. You can't can't afford 74 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: to have, you know, the plays where you're going backwards 75 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: in the sacks or early in the down, um, you 76 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: know where where you're just you put yourself in a 77 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: bad situation. Uh, you know, they had a good job 78 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: mixing up your coverages and um, you know we just uh, 79 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: you know nothing nothing. I don't know if they had 80 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: anything specifically, So they just, you know, did this a 81 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: good job just getting them some you know, getting some pressure, 82 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: and didn't you know, give us a whole lot of 83 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: time get the ball down the field? Hmm. You said 84 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: it was all over Twitter last night, all over the 85 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: back pages here in New York, back at the Daily News, 86 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: the big d buckle. If you could get a close 87 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: up on that. Six sacks by six different guys. So 88 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: it wasn't just Eric Flowers who's the low hanging fruit. 89 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: This was a system failure for this offensive line. The 90 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: back of the New York Post, we have jugger knots, 91 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: some low key shaded old darnold up top. We're gonna 92 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: let that slide for now because we're talking NFC East. 93 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: The Cowboys get the win, guys, while the other three 94 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: teams in the division lose. So let's talk about the 95 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: intrigue real quick about the NFC East. Is it a 96 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: little bit more wide open than we thought? Yeah, no question. 97 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: When you're looking at the Cowboys and them getting that dub. 98 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: The Eagles are supposed to be the team to beat, 99 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 1: But then you look at Nick Foles not playing the 100 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: game that he wants to, and even that Eagles defense, 101 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: some guys going over top making plays on that d. 102 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: There is more intrigue and I'm not sure if it's 103 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: intrigue or maybe we overestimate it. How competitive this division 104 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: is going to be. I mean, before the season, we 105 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: would all say NFC East one of the top divisions 106 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right now they're not looking so stout. 107 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking collect to believe. I got a lot of 108 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: friends who are giants. Hesn't taket holders. We will up 109 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: to an email from my friend Todd Dietre Panty, a 110 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: long time giants. Hesn't taketsuy. Yeah, Irish guy, Codd dietro Panty. 111 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: Here's the email to all of our friends from growing up. 112 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: We've got the worst talent in the league. We've got 113 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: guys like Curtis Riley and dw Webb playing important plays. 114 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: We've got the worst scheme, the worst cap situation. We 115 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: had six hundred and fifty thousand dollars in cap space 116 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: before we gave obj a receiver an extension and twenty 117 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: million dollars a year. We were the worst prepared team, 118 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: the worst future outlook. We have a thirty seven year 119 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: old quarterback and passed on Sam Darnold, and we've turned 120 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: into something worse than the Browns, because at least the 121 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: Browns play hard every snap. And oh the Giants perspective, 122 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: what do you got, Kyle? Wow? I don't have any 123 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: of Dietro Panti friends. But here's what I understand. And 124 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: I mean this as a fan sitting at home. Maybe 125 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 1: you don't care about the Giants, but you like watching 126 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: the Late Game. They have Sequan and O'Dell and it's 127 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: like pulling teeth. It's so boring and so slow. I guess. 128 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Squan is fourteen catches, like that's 129 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: not an offen. He feels like, all right, we were 130 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: talking about the movies thing. It's like sometimes you have 131 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: these incredible charismatic movie stars, but the movie is tedious. 132 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: Like when we first got together, the big movie was 133 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: coming out was a Suicide Squad, all right, and it 134 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: was Will Smith and Margot Rob the Joker. It's like 135 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: a cavalcade of eye candy. I couldn't get through a scene. 136 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: So I don't understand that with Coach Shermer and say 137 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: Quan and O'Dell, why do they have no points? And 138 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: why is it so flat and that's the biggest one 139 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: I can describe. And this is the biggest flat as 140 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: how no spark, no juice, flat And I didn't see 141 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: that coming because he's on the ground the whole time. 142 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: I know it was boring last week and I was 143 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: talking about the offensive line, but that is the issue. 144 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: But we're talking about the division as a whole. I 145 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,799 Speaker 1: think it's got to still be the Eagles. We're hearing 146 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: that Carson will be back. In my head, I guess 147 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: if with Carson as the quarterback they are. It's a 148 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: good thing for the Eagles that none of the other 149 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: three teams have really hit their stride. The Redskins looked 150 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: good week one, just got crushed by the cold, to 151 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,679 Speaker 1: the Bengals crushed this week. They nobody's hit their stride, 152 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: and so I feel like it's still the Eagles once 153 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: Carson gets back. Yeah. No, the interesting is the next 154 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: factor for sure. I'll say this. When it comes to 155 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: the Giants, they got to take a page out of 156 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons office this past weekend. Instead of forcing 157 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: the ball to Julio, they utilize Julie on different situations 158 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: a decoy. Seemed like everybody else started to make players, 159 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley, right, Austin Hooper, all these different players that 160 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: are on that squad.

You can't go out there and 163 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: have sae Quon Barkley, who was a rookie, you're leading 164 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: rusher in your leading receiver, and try to force the 165 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: ball to all deal when he's getting less than fifty yards. 166 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: It gotta rotate it and get some of these other 167 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: guys involved or else.

He would not play with that hamstring Blake 177 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: Bortles without Leonard Fournette. Contrary to your belief, you think 178 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: that Fournette is the reason why they're successful. Blake Bortles 179 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: plays well without Leonard Fournette, and here he has continue 180 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: to play well.

They're on the sideline, all right, 197 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: pass protection for showing this Brady was getting hit. That 198 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: was class Campbell and that was unique and Godwin. All right, 199 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: there's Malik Jackson. Brady found himself on the ground getting hit, 200 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: and that's how you beat him. How do you beat 201 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: the dynasty? Just like they beat up Jordan in the nineties. 202 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: The Pistons came back and put their elbow in the 203 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: middle of his chest. And that's what they did. Tom Brady, 204 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: he's yelling to do your job. Guys who weren't doing 205 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: their job.

That's exactly I'm not 211 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: mad as just as big, all right, Chris Hogan always 212 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: open seven, y'all, touchdown Patriots. They'll make it a game now, 213 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: twenty four to ten. At this point, Tom and Hogan 214 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: loving it four trailing twenty four to thirteen. Shout out 215 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: the Hogan getting two tuggies. But there it is. How 216 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: about Dante Feller tugging at that ball and Dante Feller 217 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: recovering that ball. Oh my goodness, just play after play 218 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: after play. In order to be brady, we say it 219 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: all the time, you gotta hit him and you gotta 220 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: get after the ball. And that's exactly what they did. 221 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: Next Patriots possession. Check out this player right here, James 222 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: White trying to make a play, and initially it would 223 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: be called a first out. Then Doug Morral says, whoa, 224 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: whoa wait, wait a minute, I know we tackle better 225 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: than this. We practiced all the time, and they would 226 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: review it and they would say that he was just short. 227 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: Do you know how bold it is to review that call? 228 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: How about time outs? And here we go, Blake board everything. 229 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: What are you looking for? D D. Westbrook looking like 230 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook on a fast break and he makes one 231 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: guy miss skates up the sideline a D D. S. 232 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: Bryan recipiet. How about that? Yeah, you're right about that. 233 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: All the way around in the Jags they are loving it. 234 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: How about the Jacksonville Jaguars his second win against the Patriots, 235 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: enfranchise history. Blake Bordos played amazing. T J Yelden and 236 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: the replace the Fournette played well Jackson of Tourneau. They 237 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: went thirty one twenty and Mike Giardi caught up one 238 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: of our favorite players in the entire world. Tell them 239 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: Smith Miles Jackson, it's the biggest game he's ever played, 240 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: Our revenge game. What does it feel like to come 241 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: out on top? It feels good. This this I just 242 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: say that title. Guys, this is a hard work dedication 243 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: that love aget you. I'll tell you we came out 244 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: here a battle. We started fast and fitness basting. How 245 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: Imprton wants that obviously started creeping back into the game. 246 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: It's twenty four and thirteen and then Dante makes the 247 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: strip sack and I have you guys didn't convert off that? Yeah, 248 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: but to score their mod. We're battle testing and when 249 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: we get our bets against the wall like that, we 250 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: got enough players that somebody's gonna step up and make 251 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: a play. And that's what happened. We knew what was 252 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: gonna happen. We just had to keep playing and man, 253 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 1: we knew that was gonna try and make a run. 254 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: We played against one of the greatest quarterbacks and played 255 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: the game. But I'll tell you when we luck in 256 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: and we played you see what happened was not the 257 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: lesson learned from the FC title game. I'll tell you, 258 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: we say we got the experience from we say it. 259 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: We're a better team. Now we just show n talk 260 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: to me a little bit about flake boarders here again 261 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: nationally very much. Maligne took you to the FC title 262 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: game last year with the help of the defense, and 263 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 1: then today thirty fifty plus four touchdowns. I said it all. 264 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: I said that at the beginning of the week, that's 265 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: my quarterback and were standing on the wire, stand behind 266 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: it a great player. It don't matter in bigtime games. 267 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: Big time players step up and I'll tell you that's 268 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: why that guys are in quarterback. We love it. Thank 269 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 1: I appreciated they turned out too, and to start the 270 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: season for the first time since two thousand and six, 271 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: Dante Fowler with that strip sack. Telton Smith was a 272 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: big part in shutting down Rob Gronkowski. Are we looking 273 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: at the most impressive team in the AFC, gentleman, I 274 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: would say so. I would say so. You know, we 275 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: had this conversation last week or about these guys playing 276 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots and what are they gonna do last year 277 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: AFC Championship game, them taking their foot off the pedal, 278 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: and they didn't do that this game. And when I 279 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: was on Twitter's past weekend, everybody was saying, listen, no 280 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: foreign net. These guys are going to have a chance. 281 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: These are the Pats. And as good as the Jacks were, 282 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 1: they're stilled the little brother in the AFC. And they 283 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: came out and they were much more than that. They 284 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: played like the big brother. They swung first and just 285 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: like Tilby Smith said, they started fast, and they started 286 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: fast and finished faster. Matt Hamilton, he sent me in 287 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: the early and so he said. The Jacks are averaging 288 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: seven yards per carry out of the gun. That's including 289 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: Blake Bortles when he does his zone repools. Now you 290 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: expect when the four is back there, he gets behind center, 291 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: he hands the ball off the average only three point 292 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: two yards. When they're doing that, putting them in that shotgun, 293 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: that little pistol and him being able to look at 294 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: the defense difference either handed, it makes a huge difference. 295 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: And when you look at him back there, this isn't 296 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: Blake Bortles playing high. And they barely got to win. 297 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: He was making some throws out there. Me and Hamilton 298 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: were text each other doing the game and I was like, 299 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: did you just see that? He's like, yeah, I just 300 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: saw that. Just like I said last year, you guys 301 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: got to expect quarterbacks in this league. If they study 302 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 1: the game and they want to improve that, they're going 303 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: to get better. You can't judge Blake Bortles about what 304 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: he did two years ago. Blake Bortles right now is 305 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: a different quarters from the contract extension vote of confidence. 306 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: You get playing one of the better quarterbacks in the league, 307 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: right but the best quarterback in the league is playing 308 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. My pick is the Chiefs, and I 309 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: think they're two and o and in today's Dame, I 310 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: think offense overcomes a week defense. And obviously the Chiefs 311 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: defense has been horrendous, but they win games. And if 312 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: you're going to score scores, scorering with these rules where 313 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: you can't touch the quarterback, you can't touch the receiver, 314 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: and you have the greatest play caller in the AFC 315 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: and he I'm going with the Chiefs until they show 316 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: any vulnerability on offense. How can you beat them when 317 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 1: they can't be stopped? I go to Kansas City I 318 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: don't know if it's the most impressive to in THEFC 319 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: or not. I don't care. I want to give credit 320 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: to Miami Dolphins. Miami Dolphins are off to a start. 321 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: They beat the Titans in the weirdest Week one game 322 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: of all time, and then they go at the Jets 323 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: for the coronation of Sam Donald. The New York papers 324 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: had Donald in Revolutionary War here and they said Samilton, 325 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: all right, Well, Adam Gays was Aaron Burke. They went 326 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: and beat him. And here is the crazy stat Ryan Tannehill, 327 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: say what you want about and I don't care. Do 328 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: you know when his last ten starts about nine and 329 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: one in his last ten starts. That's a very sneaky 330 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: dark thing that no one notices nine and one in 331 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: his last ten starts. And I think Adam Gas has 332 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: the thing here. I'm just saying the New England's bleeding. 333 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: We've seen him, believe before. I'm very impressed with Miami 334 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: Dolphins as a sleeper who's about to wake up. They 335 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: will ever see Hamilton, Nate, We please go see Hamilton 336 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: the Broadway show, not the research and not the premier. 337 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: Go see it. I'm gonna go see it. The Jags 338 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: and Chiefs. The class of the AFC is so far 339 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: are so I agree with KB and shrigs now. While 340 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: there was plenty of action on the field this week, 341 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: there was also plenty of drama off of it, from 342 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: a surprising yet not surprising trade to a certain Philly 343 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: QB making his return this week had the breakfast table buzzing. 344 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: All right, gents. Before Carson Wentz suffered his torn ACL 345 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: against the Rams back in Week fourteen of last season, 346 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: he's one of the NFL's best quarterbacks on his way 347 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: to possibly securing an MVP. So how do we feel 348 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: about once picking up where he left off after missing 349 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: the first two weeks of this year. I believe there's 350 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: unrealistic expectations for us to say that he's going to 351 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: pick up where he left off last year. He was 352 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: on fire, running away with the MVP award, lightening up 353 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: this league. And the reason he did that because one, 354 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: he has a high Q he can throw it with 355 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: the best of them. But one of his more underrated 356 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: pieces of his game is the fact that he could 357 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: run just as good as Russell Wilson, just as good 358 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: as Shown Watson, just as good as quite frankly, some 359 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: of the best running quarterbacks of all time. Doing stuff 360 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: like this is normal. But we saw this weekend and 361 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: week out. So my question that I asked myself and 362 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: that I will be asking myself as I watched Carson 363 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: Wentz throughout this game. Is that knee going to remind 364 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: him of who he was or who he can't be? 365 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: I tried my ICL, and the first season after teary 366 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: my ICL, I thought about two things. There are times 367 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: where I thought to myself, I could be the same guy. 368 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: I can go out there, I can run fast, I 369 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: can jump, I could be explosive. They can't stop me. 370 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: But then also find myself in games where I'm reminding 371 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: myself of who I can't be. I'm questioning you shouldn't 372 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: make that move. Wait before you try to hurdle that guy. 373 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: Just think about it. Your knee might might hurt, or 374 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: you know what, you should go out of bounce instead 375 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: of trying to run him over. You're not the same 376 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: guy you used to be. So I'm going to be 377 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: watching him intentally. What's going on behind that face mask 378 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: and the decisions where there's a first down and he 379 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: can go for it. Is he going to try to 380 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: get those extra yards like he used to. Like he 381 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: ended up hurting his acl in that end zone when 382 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: he was trying to rush for that touchdown. So that 383 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: is for me, like oftentimes, say Carson wentz Gona to 384 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: save himself from himself. Will he do that or will 385 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: he be a complete different terack? Did we see that 386 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: with Mariota last year or are we seeing that with 387 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson to start this season? A little that are 388 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: behind their helmets. It's a little hesitation because it's mine, 389 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: but it's also body. Sometimes a body can trick him one. 390 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: It's interesting. I think that's gonna be fascinating to watch 391 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: how fearless he is because that's what made him what 392 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: he was last season. I do want to take a 393 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: moment to just remember how good he was. This guy 394 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: was the best quarterback in all of football last year. 395 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: And it wasn't just because of these great scrambles. He 396 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: had a huge arm. He won big games. He went 397 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: into tough buildings and one and they were crushing teams. 398 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: The Eagles were doing things to teams that no one 399 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: else in the league were. So with this, you know, 400 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: whence they might be awesome when he gets back, and 401 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: I think this Eagles team is hoping for that because 402 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: Foles was doing the job, and he did the job 403 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: for sure in January last year. But to me, I'm 404 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: going to take the optimistic side on this, and I 405 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: think the Eagles become one of the best teams in 406 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: the NFC with the addition of Carson over and I 407 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: think he is a huge, huge upgrade from Nick Foles 408 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: and be costly waited to put him in. I think 409 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: they're comfortable with what he's doing physically. I think now 410 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles they get going. I think they bought a 411 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: ton of credibility when he didn't start the opener. That 412 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: spoke volumes to me because the Eagles have run a 413 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: masterclass on how to deal with this from the get go, 414 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: from getting him off the field to not trading foals 415 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: to not rushing him back. And they answer the other question. 416 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: There's some people saying, well, if they would have beaten Tampa, 417 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: they would have still arrested. I don't think so, because 418 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: Nick Foles was fine in that game they lost because 419 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: of the defense. Carson Wentz I think will be excellent 420 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: right from the start because it has been enough time. 421 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: If he was out there for the opener. I've said 422 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: on the show. I was going to be terrified. I 423 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna be out there because it's the 424 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: opener and let's get him. They waited until week three. 425 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: I think he will be smarter. I don't think he's 426 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: going to be diving into tacklers in the end zone, 427 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: but he'll move. He'll move it. They would not put 428 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: him out there. This Eagles team, as an organized would 429 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: have to. They don't have to Peter unless he's great, 430 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: not fine, real MVP level Wentz. I think he's going 431 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: to be fantastic. It was a better game him or 432 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: Angel Luck. I think Wentz. I think Wentz was a 433 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: better player. I do. Plus, I think I like the 434 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: Eagles day to come back this week. Meanwhile, as we're 435 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: supported by her own NFL Network insider Ian Rappaport, the 436 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: Patriots acquired Josh Gordon from the Browns. Here's what they 437 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: got back, a conditional fifth round pick next year. Gordon. 438 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: We know thirteen his ceiling, leading the NFL in receiving, 439 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: but he's played in just eleven games since He's missed 440 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: like twenty four over the last two years. Nate, what 441 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,959 Speaker 1: was your reaction when that news came across. I was surprised. 442 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: I was shocked, you know, thinking about Josh. I've been 443 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: very vocal in my support for Josh coming back, getting 444 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 1: his mind right, getting his life together, and I'm still 445 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: in support of him being a dominant wide receiver in 446 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,719 Speaker 1: this league. So I was happy for Josh. On the 447 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: flip side, I was happy, yet sad for the Browns, 448 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: happy that they finally had the guts to several relationship 449 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: that was somewhat toxic, and I was also saddened by 450 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: the fact that it seems like in relationship terms, they 451 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: were in this relationship and we all were watching this 452 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: from a distance saying this isn't working out, and they 453 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: helped their spouse get back on their feet. You know what, 454 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna help you get a job, I'm gonna clean 455 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: you up, and you're gonna be okay. Even when everybody's 456 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: saying I should break up with you, I'm gonna stick 457 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 1: by your side. And right when that person gets everything together, 458 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: they look good, get a haircut, got a job, and 459 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: they're walking around by saying wow, look at Josh. They 460 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: leave and they're dating somebody who is bigger and they're better, 461 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: and they're more handsome, and they got it. He's in 462 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: a better relationship. Let's just be honest about this. Josh 463 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 1: Gordon being with the Patriots is great for Josh Gordon 464 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: and it's great for the Patriots. Now expectations. I expect 465 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: Josh to come in and seamlessly fit in and follow 466 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: the rules and regulations, the unwritten rules of being a Patriot, 467 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: the written rules of being a Patriot. And if he 468 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: does that, if he does it, and I know him 469 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: to be the high football IQ individual that he is, 470 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: he will have a season that some will compare them. 471 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: Maybe not statistically, but some will compare to when Randy 472 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: Moss went to the Patriots. Yes, I'm saying it right now. 473 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: That's how good Josh Gordon and Tom Brady can be. 474 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: I gotta be sensitive here because there's a there are 475 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: substance abuse issues he's had in the past. It's not 476 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: like he's a knucklehead who gets traffic violations. His actual will, 477 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: real life stuff. I will say this the Browns over 478 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: four seasons, he only played in eleven games because he 479 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: couldn't get on the field, and the Browns did everything 480 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: they possibly could to get him right. They gave him 481 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: the support system, they gave him outside help, they gave 482 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: him the time to find himself. And on Friday night 483 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: he went home after the facility and he was completely healthy. 484 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 1: And he showed up Saturday with a hamstring injury because 485 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: he hurt himself shooting a promotional video for what I 486 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: believe was an Instagram video. And the Brown said, enough 487 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: is enough. You can't hurt yourself doing promotional videos for 488 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: stuff that's not football related. That's not so when I 489 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: hear that stuff, I don't know if we're talking Randy 490 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: Moss or if we're talking Belichick saying, well, what the hell, 491 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 1: I might as well take a risk. But you know what, 492 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: he's got this thin a walk, he's got a very 493 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: short rope with that stuff doesn't fly in New England. 494 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 1: So it's kind of like scared straight or you know 495 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: something like that, like this is it's kind of like 496 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: your last shot. Like I don't think Belichick and Brady 497 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: are going to give him the exact soft, nurturing love 498 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: of Hey here, I don't see that. I see this 499 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: on Josh Gordon and he's got to be a big 500 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: boy and he's i'd be able to find a way 501 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: to stay on the face, to get right or get gone, 502 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: because you can be in that relationship that wasn't working 503 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 1: for you, but if you carry that baggage and the 504 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: new relationship, as good as that partner is, you're still 505 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: going to be toxic. Toxic because you have been dealt 506 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: with that yourself. I don't think Bill Belichick, I don't 507 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: know him personally, but has that nurturing, let's figure things 508 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: out for you mentality. It seems more of not. I mean, 509 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: I'm going to use the word desperation loosely here. For 510 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: the Patriots who need wide receiver help, you told me 511 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: they made nearly thirty transactions since this offseason to find 512 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: that wide receiver after getting rid of a running back 513 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: who acts as a wide receiver in Dean Lewis and 514 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: Danny A. Mendola without Julian Edelman, I think it's a 515 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: low risk thing for them because if he doesn't work 516 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: out in two weeks, he's out the door before reward. Yeah, 517 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a coincidence. They just played Jacksonville 518 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: had a hard time scoring, and so what the heck, 519 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: let's try it. I just also think that looking on 520 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 1: blogs and Twitter and everything. That like the most convenient 521 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: thing to do right now is you see the Patriots 522 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: got somebody like this, and you immediately bring up your 523 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: Corey dealing references and you're Albert Handsworth, the Rocio sink 524 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: or anything like that. Might be guys who had quote 525 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,199 Speaker 1: unquote baggage. This is one hundred percent different than that, 526 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: all right, those guys. Josh Gordon is not someone who 527 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: beef with this head coach or didn't have wasn't in 528 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: shape for conditioning. It's a whole different set of things. 529 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,239 Speaker 1: So it bothers me when I see that, because this 530 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: is a completely different animal to manage or not manage 531 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: and get rid of. I will say this on the 532 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: football side of things, I believe this is gonna work. 533 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,719 Speaker 1: I do because can't speak to his demons or what 534 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: he needs to repair them or beat them, but I 535 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: will speak to the football of this. Josh Gordon in 536 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: his career has played with Jason Campbell, Brandon Whedon, Johnny Menzel, 537 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 1: Deshaun Kaiser, fad Lewis, and now he's going to Tom Brady, 538 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: the best to ever play. So if good football and 539 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: health and success and acceptance is something that can make 540 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: him thrive, He's gonna take off. He's never had a 541 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: situation for success in his career, like ability career positions. 542 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: So if it's professional success and acceptance and thriving is 543 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: something that gets his head clear, watch out talk about it. 544 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: What's his return will certainly make it difference. He just 545 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: needs some healthy targets. Now. They say you should never 546 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: stop learning, and here on GMF we always adhere to 547 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: that rule. Let's find out what the gang learned after 548 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: all the action from week two. I'm gonna give a 549 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 1: shout out to one of the coaches who ended up 550 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: on the losing end of a game on Sunday, but 551 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: as winning in the end. The Panthers were on the road, 552 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: they were down their starting tight end, three offensive linemen. 553 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: They played valiantly. They lost to the Falcons. But there 554 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: was Ron Rivera on Monday, not hanging his head, not moaning, 555 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: not cowering in a corner. Instead, Ron Rivera was focused 556 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: on making a difference. I thought this was awesome and 557 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: this is what I learned. During his press conference after 558 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: the loss, Rivera debuted a new shirt. You know, he 559 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: loved all these shirts and expressed the organization's desire to 560 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: help those affected by Hurricane Florence in any way it can. 561 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: The shirt features a lockup of North Carolina and South 562 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: Carolina with the message we share more than a state line. 563 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: The tagline it's really the border between the two states. 564 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: The shirt up desize is the message that the two 565 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 1: Carolinas are more than just neighboring states. The Panthers they 566 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: partnered with visit North Carolina and discover South Carolina in 567 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: short order to show their support for the recovery efforts. 568 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: With the T shirt, one hundred percent of the proceeds 569 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: if you buy it on Panthers dot com go to 570 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: the two states hurricane relief funds. So Rivera could have 571 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: been miserable. He could have been sitting around moaning about 572 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: the way the defense played. He wasn't. Instead, he was upbeat. 573 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: Turned the page. He said, there's a lot more going 574 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: on in this area. Help support the cause. So Panthers 575 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: dot com go do it. One hundred percent, not ten percent. 576 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: One hundred percent goes to hurricane relief efforts down there 577 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: in the Carolinas. Ron Rivera class act all the way, 578 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: and I learned this week he just gets it. Ron 579 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: Rivera could dude that's good stuff, man. Percent. And then 580 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: it's also where the road Costs is doing and that 581 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: continues by the way nine zero the word Florence texts 582 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: that and it helps relieve those people that are still 583 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: dealing with that right now. One percent. And we love 584 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera because he wears the shirts and we kind 585 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: of get a joke out of it, and we even 586 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 1: use it on our show. But to use this platform 587 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: in a moment where we collectively as a country needn't 588 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 1: to shed light like I love Ron for that man, 589 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: shout out to Rivera, one of the best, big spotlight guy. 590 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: He is one of the best. Peter You've gotten to 591 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: him a little bit, you've worked when we met with 592 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: him several times. For people at home watching who maybe 593 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: aren't tuned in to the Carolina Panthers, what's Ron Rivera 594 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: maido positivity? You think about what this team has gone through. 595 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: They have a new owner this year, they've already had 596 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: several injuries with Greg Olson and the offensive line going down, 597 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: and now you deal with a hurricane where a lot 598 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: of their lives personally are affected. That was a tough 599 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: trip to Atlanta. They put it behind them, They said, 600 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: we got to fuck us on football. But by the 601 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: time they got to the facility on Monday, Rivera was 602 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: already wearing that shirt, trying to promote awareness, saying, this 603 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: is where you can come with your funds and help 604 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: these guys. I love it the football, and look, we 605 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: talked about football xes and those all the time. It's 606 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 1: cool to talk about what's going on off the field. 607 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera one of those guys, straight and narrow loves 608 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: Solers dot Com. Still available by the T shirt one 609 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: hundred percent donation and make a difference. Love that story. 610 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: I was not aware of that going on, So can't 611 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: wait to go to Panthers dot com and get my 612 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: T shirt. And something I talked about all last week 613 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: was the Falcons red zone. It's well documented Matt Ryan's issues. 614 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: Let's just take it back a recent sample back to 615 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: the Divisional round in the playoffs. It was Falcons and Eagles, 616 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: and you see Matt Ryan and he's just sort of 617 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: trying to get the ball to his boy Julio and 618 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: it doesn't work out. He's sort of alert Jic to 619 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: us going on that something's been plaguing them last year, 620 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: that he didn't really have the year before. In twenty 621 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: sixteen when he had his MVP season. So I said, 622 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: you know what you need to do. You need to 623 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 1: pick up a prescription. We'll call it in for you 624 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: here from the GMFB pharmacy for red Zona drill, a 625 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: pressure reliever, a touchdown producer. And I thought, you know, 626 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: maybe I'll take a while to kick in because that 627 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: Panther's past defense is no joke. Lo and behold, I 628 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: learned that Matt Ryan watches our show and he listens 629 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: to his doctor. Because here's what he did. He took 630 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: it to the red zone. Guys. He was a perfect 631 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: sterling four of four. He ran it in twice over 632 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: Don Taripo. Oh gee, I love seeing that. He said, 633 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I feel great, and he did it again, connecting not 634 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: to Julio Jones. Heavily targeted. But I have this weird 635 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: feeling that I think that I'm learning that their best 636 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: option in the red zone is to maybe not try 637 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: forcing it to their dominant wide receiver. It's sort of 638 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: a mismatch. It doesn't really make sense in my head. 639 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: But he hit eight different receivers in this game. That 640 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: reminds me of the thirteen receivers that he hit in 641 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: the end zone, four touchdowns all of that twenty sixteen season. 642 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 1: Is there something to this? I turn over to my 643 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: eleven year NFL veteran wide receiver. Is there something to 644 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 1: maybe not forcing the ball to Julio in the red zone. Yeah, 645 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: in that season you're talking about, and he also won 646 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: the MVP and proved to be one of the best 647 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and running the best offense. But that's it. Though. 648 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: You can try to feed your superstar, even force feed 649 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: your superstar, but once you get to the red zone, 650 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: that's when you have to have discernment because if you're 651 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: a defense and you're backed up in your own territory, 652 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: you have to expect that a team is going to 653 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: feed their superstar. Now, if you know that offensively, right, 654 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: it is playing chess and anticipating their move. You drop back, 655 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: you just read the defense and oftentimes they're going to 656 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: have one extra guy over the top of Julio. That 657 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: way you can deliver the ball beautifully all these other receivers, 658 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: And that's why he did this past weekend. Can I 659 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: be right? Guys like Austin Hooper emerging running it in, 660 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: Kevin Coleman Lookedawson not gonna need them too, because DeVante 661 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: Freeman's out for the short term, and you lose Kean O'Neil, 662 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: and you lose Deon Jones. Matt Ryan, it's even better 663 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: than he was last year. I like that he lowers 664 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: his shoulder when he runs Red Zona Drill zero slide effects. Kyle, 665 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: You're up, and I'm so excited because I'm gonna talk 666 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: about something I love. I learned this weekend, something I 667 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: thought but now I know for sure. And I love ties. 668 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: I love NFL ties. People think they're weird. They don't 669 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: know how to act. It's a strange awkwardness when ties happen. 670 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: There's been hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of wins and 671 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: losses in my lifetime. I love the ties, guys. I 672 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: love the fact that it puts you in these hilacious 673 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: playoffs scenarios. I loved it. The body language of the 674 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: players is weird. The commentators don't know what to say, 675 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: the fans don't know what to tweet. Ties are hot 676 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: right now. We had a tie Week one, we had 677 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: a tie Week two. I think they're so bizarre. As 678 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: a fan, you say, well, we didn't lose, but yet 679 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: we didn't win. It's this strange sort of middle land 680 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: in between wins and losses. That gets me so excited 681 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: because I'm here for the weird. If you guys know me, 682 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: and it's the twenty first tie of my lifetime, twenty 683 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: one ties in my lifetime of the NFL. You might 684 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: ask Kyle, do you have a favorite all time NFL tie, 685 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: and boys the answer yes, Falcons steal. There's two thousands 686 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: classic Tommy Maddox versus Michael Vick matchup. Guys. In the 687 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: overtime of this game, there were two blocked field goals 688 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: and on the very last play of the game, when 689 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: you need to complete a hail Mary to break the tie, 690 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: this happened. It's time for one hail merit. It's one 691 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: second on the clock. Atlanta has five men deep, including 692 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: Brian Finneran Maddocks. What's it fly all the way? And 693 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: gold Field and Anglis caught. It's called on one. There's 694 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: no time. The gate's over home. She called Furis caught 695 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: at his body was in the end zone. Sham, the 696 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: ball wasn't all This is unbelievable. So Plexico doesn't know 697 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: what to do. Randell doesn't know what to do. Keith 698 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: Brooking is loss. Brian finneran out there playing defense, doesn't 699 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: know what to do. It's glorious and so is the 700 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: ultimate tie SoundBite in two thousand and eight, when Donovan 701 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: mcnabtied the quote to end all quotes, what a donover 702 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: nap to say? Well, I've never been a part of 703 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: the time. I never even knew that that was in 704 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: the rule, Buck, But again, you know, it's part of 705 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: the rules and we have to go with it. So, 706 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: you know, I was looking forward to the next opportunity 707 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: of getting out there and trying to drive to win 708 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: the game. But unfortunately, with the rules, you know, we 709 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: settle with a tie. Guys, that's weird. Mount Carmel High School, Syracuse. 710 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 1: He knows everything about football and didn't know there were ties. 711 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about, and the ties are 712 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: all over this glorious country. Guys. You remember when the 713 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball All Star Game had to be stopped 714 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: in a tie. Bud Selick says, we're out of pictures, 715 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: just mud, I'm talking to you. You stopped the All 716 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: Star Game in a tie. Earlier this year, Jeopardy had 717 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: the first tie in its history. They have never had 718 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: one before. The final category was European Islands. They had 719 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: to have a showdown. A thing you know is the 720 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: exact dollar amount was tied. Nineteen sixty nine Oscars the Goats, 721 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: Funny Girl versus the Line in Winter was a tie. 722 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: Hepburn strivesand they had the exact same number of It 723 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: blew people's minds. I celebrate all ties. Boh bolo mer 724 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: streets law. Okay. When I order food, I like pad. 725 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: If I have a headache, I take lenol. I am 726 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: amused by shady politicians with to the mob. I cried 727 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: burn tannic if I'm defending the desk star. I like fighters. 728 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't drink water on vacation to avoid Floyd fever. 729 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: My favorite March Madness legend is us Edney. If I 730 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: want homemakeover shows with a heart, I like Pennington And 731 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: I think the Jaguars are gonna tie this weekend because 732 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: they have never tied in their history. If at first 733 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: you don't succeed, tie tie again, and when they do, 734 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tie one on vote for time. That's that's sense. 735 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: I love the Jags. There at then that leads me 736 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: into mind so Drake once said that sports and music 737 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: is so synonymous. So what I learned is that the 738 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: Jags are the j Cole of football and watching keeling 739 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: cold ball out at the whole football world, wondering who 740 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: that Who that like J Cole, which me thinking K 741 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:07,479 Speaker 1: Cole JCole. So I'm gonna use his albums and songs 742 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: to describe the Jacks. All right, So there we go. 743 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: Last season that was just the warm up. But this 744 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: year we're gonna see this babycat turn into grown Simba 745 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: after hearns Robinson going Lee going down. I knew it 746 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: was gonna be a cold summer. Now counted up, counted up, 747 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: counted up, counting. They started off two and oh, conquering 748 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: the jungle like it's the return of Simba. But still 749 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: there's so many questions. Is Blake Bortle's gonna rise and 750 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: shine or is he gonna be another sideline story? Okay, 751 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: he played great so far. Listen, I gotta tell you. Plus, 752 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: nobody's perfect and we're all born centers. And how about 753 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: how about the other side of the ball. Is a 754 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: team gonna be in trouble because they spent more money 755 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: on that d Listen, they were one of the best 756 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: fantasy defenses as k she knows. Now now, well, Doug 757 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: Marone and Tom Coffin work out. Is it the real 758 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: thing or is it just a one year plan? No, man, 759 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: it's more than that. There's some say, oh, I don't 760 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: like all that adolescent trash talk. So what no role 761 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: models in there here right now? Well, some role models 762 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: I could think of anyways. Listen. I actually tried to 763 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: motivate my friend, my next door neighbor. I tried to 764 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: convince them that the Super Bowl is going to be 765 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars playing in it. And I think my 766 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: neighbors nick, I'm selling hope. But listen, it doesn't matter 767 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: what you think. I'm trying to sell you on what's 768 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: going on with this team and for everyone out there 769 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: that's saying this is an all same old Jaguars team. Hello, 770 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: it's a tale of two different cities. Listen, and they 771 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 1: will exercise the mistakes of past Jacks teams. Now listen, KOD. 772 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: It might mean kill our demons for this team Jacksonville Jaguars, 773 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: but for right now, KOD stands for kings d. So 774 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: that right there is my Kko Jko Jags homage to 775 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: one of the best hip hop artists in the game. 776 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: They with the references, but also I'm glad Shark shed 777 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: late on the Panthers who can't releap that. So if 778 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: there's anything you can do, we encourage you to contribute. 779 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: Players like Aaron Rodgers and Antonio Brown will always get 780 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 1: the spotlight, but the league is full of personalities who 781 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: don't usually get the love they deserve. That's where Good 782 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: Morning Football comes in again. Let's find out the stories 783 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: we should have been paying attention to. With this week's 784 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 1: Underappreciated Storylines, we'd like to shine some light and spotlight 785 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: a few players and storylines around the league. Whether it's 786 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: a coach, whether it's a system, whether it's a single 787 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: play that isn't getting enough love around the league. We 788 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: call them are underappreciated storylines. We've been doing this segment 789 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: since the start of our show two years ago, and 790 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: it's one of our faiths. It is, it is, and 791 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: I'll start to sting off. All right, So all right. 792 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: I was once told that chance is a word void 793 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 1: of sense. Nothing can exist without a cause. My underappreciate 794 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: storyline is the New England Patriots Cleveland Brown's trade of 795 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 1: Josh Gordon. Now this isn't a rant on how a 796 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: troubled young man needs the Patriots more than they need him, 797 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: Nor is this away from me to dry snitch on 798 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 1: athletes and remind the world of their past indiscretions. This 799 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: trade between the Browns and the Paths reminds me that 800 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: life is all about chances. What chances are you willing 801 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: to take to chase your dreams? Just like the dream 802 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: of playing in NFL play playing in NFL, Just like 803 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: all these young players right now in the league. Now, 804 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: once you reach that goal, like Josh Gordon, like myself, 805 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: all the guys that are in the league right now, 806 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: would you take a chance on losing it because of 807 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: your poor choices. In Josh Gordon's case, we've seen his 808 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: dream turned into a nightmare last year. He was incredibly 809 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: courageous when he came out and he spoke on his issues. 810 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 1: Instead of running away from opposing defenders, he was running 811 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: away from his own demons. And when we were sure 812 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: it was another life derailed, the Browns gave him chance 813 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: after chance after chance. Like a spouse who's blind in 814 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 1: love with someone who just isn't right for them. You 815 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: fast forward to this week, the Browns took a chance 816 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: on evering the relationship. The Pats took a chance on 817 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: the player who some say doesn't necessarily fit the mold 818 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: of the Patriot way. Some fans they love him, some 819 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: fans they think he had too many chances, which may 820 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: be true. But I'm in support of the Browns letting 821 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: go in the Pats making room. The point I'm trying 822 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: to make is that nothing happens by chance, so we 823 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: all should take a chance on still being Gordon fans. 824 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: Plus Tom will have three stud pass catchers Julian Edelman 825 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 1: when he gets back, and of course Gronkowski and the 826 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: newly acquired Flash, pumping fear into every defensive coordinator who 827 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 1: will have that big three on their minds, just like 828 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 1: chance the rapper. Oh man, you're pulling form, aren't you. Yeah, 829 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: I'm pulling the form. I've been pulling for him for 830 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: a while. Yea, you've been years ahead of this. Yeah, 831 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: And I've been a little scoring that times. And I'm 832 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 1: that guy I'm describing myself. I'm just like the Browns. 833 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm in that relationship and I've been hurt, but I 834 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: keep saying no, no, no, He's good for us. He's 835 00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: good for the league and I want him to play well, 836 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: and I do for like this is the best fit 837 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: for him. And if he has his mind right, he 838 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: has his emotions in check along with his physical it'll 839 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: be he'll be a perfect fit. I'm Paul vorm Film. 840 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 1: I think we all are minor appreciated. The biggest story 841 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL for the first two weeks is the 842 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and there's been so much attention and 843 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: so much adulation about their thirty five year old quarterback. 844 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,760 Speaker 1: That miner appreciated is their thirty one year old wide receiver, 845 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: DeShawn Jackson. Guys, forty years from now, when we're talking 846 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: to our kids or our grandkids about what it was 847 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: like back in this era, it's gonna be Larry Fitzgerald, 848 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna be Antonio Brown. Even guys like TiO and 849 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 1: Randy who DeShawn Jackson also played with. DeShawn Jackson should 850 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: be remembered, and I think he will be remembered if 851 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: I have anything to say about it, because what I've 852 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 1: realized this week, DeShawn Jackson is the big play goat, 853 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: the greatest of all time. And let me tell you. 854 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: I got the numbers to back it up. He now 855 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: is tied with Jerry Rice for the most sixty plus 856 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: yard touchdowns since nineteen seventy d three, more than Hester, 857 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: more than Metcalf, more than our guy Steve Way, more 858 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 1: than Randy Moss, who is the greatest deep threat of 859 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: all time. DeShawn Jackson is the greatest big play guy 860 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: of all time because he doesn't and returns. He's done 861 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: it on reverses, and now he's doing it into thirty 862 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: one years old as an afterthought because we're all freaking 863 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: out on Fitzpatrick. The fact that d Shaun is still 864 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: doing this is insane. And I thought, since we've been 865 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: seeing this this season and he has all these twenty 866 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: three sixty plus yard touchdowns, what does the very first 867 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 1: one look like? Let's go back to a young Deshaun 868 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: who I thought, Man, I know this guy is fast, 869 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: but he is so skinny. How is he gonna make 870 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: this last? He was He looked like he was one 871 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty pounds cow. But sure enough, two thousand 872 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: and eight, Week five, it is Eagles Redskins, and after 873 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: a Brian Westbrook touchdown, the Redskins punts and that kid 874 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: out of cal does this the punt, It's sure Jackson 875 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: takes it at thirty two. Looks for oneing room reverse 876 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: are just playing twenty five forty thirty five Carty, He's 877 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: got a girl. Nobody touched them. Nobody touched them, just 878 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 1: like that. The Eagles lead fourth team play. The Great 879 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: Merrill reased with the call. Nobody even laid a hand 880 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: on Nate's laughing. He was so slight that it was 881 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: like the pads were about like a kid wearing shoulder pads. Well, 882 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 1: that was the first of twenty three sixty plus yard plays. Guys, 883 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 1: if you look at DeShawn Jackson's receiver, I don't think 884 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 1: he's going to the Hall of Fame. He's fiftieth all 885 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: time in yards, he's ninety seventh in receptions. But as 886 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: for as a pure big play guy, I've never seen 887 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: anybody better. And as a receiver, you know, Marvin Harrison 888 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 1: got in a nice little gig. He's in Peyton Mann, 889 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 1: He's in a dome. He can just ride that. His 890 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 1: whole career. Deshawn's been out there with falls, Vic Kevin Carb, 891 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley, RG three, Colt McCoy and he does it 892 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 1: everywhere he goes. In closing, I think it is perfect 893 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: that DeShawn Jackson, of all people, invoked NBA jam this week, 894 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 1: because as there ever been anybody who's been heating up, 895 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: you know what always and three you make the first three, 896 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: he's eating up, he's on fire. Well, in Philadelphia he 897 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 1: was Jeff horn Sec he's eating up. In Washington he 898 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 1: was Tom Googliata, and then in Florida now he is 899 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: the great Scott Skiles. He's on fire. And if you 900 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: don't think the Sean Jackson's the greatest big plague all time, 901 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: I say, get that out of here and see Jack's respect. 902 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: Thirty one years old, still blowing the top off. I 903 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 1: love it, Booma, good job, guys, love those underappreciated story lines. 904 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: Week two was Mercury was in a retrograde, absolutely fully. 905 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 1: The kicking woes across the NFL landscape were crazy. They 906 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: were missed field goals to cost games and create ties 907 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: one point games left and right, and then we had 908 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: the extra point drama as well, and extra points. With 909 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: all this missed field goals, there was one team that 910 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: was like, we don't have a kicker and we don't 911 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: need a kicker, and that is my underappreciated storyline four 912 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,240 Speaker 1: week two. It is the fact that the La Rams 913 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: lost greg'serline in pregame because he had a bit of 914 00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: a groin injury. These are all the woes here, and 915 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 1: these they got to convert. Okay, I wish we could 916 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:03,839 Speaker 1: stop on this and let me talk for a second. 917 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: But listen, what you're seeing here are these two point 918 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: conversions that they went for every time. They just went 919 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: for two and went for two and went for two. 920 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: Guess what they scored every time. You had Girly Girly 921 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: and Malcolm Brown. Guys, there were eight missed extra points 922 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: so far this season. I didn't make they stumble upon something. Listen, 923 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 1: talk about it. If you go for two every time 924 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,799 Speaker 1: and hit two out of three, that's still an extra point. 925 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 1: And let's not pretend that extra points are given, like 926 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: there's been eight missed ones this season. So if you 927 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: go and you hit fifty percent, if I'm even, that's 928 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 1: still better odds. It just seems to me, could this 929 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: be a precedent that I'd like to see more people 930 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: just going for two? They did it without Greg Zirline 931 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: and they won the game. Other teams lost their games. 932 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: So Sean McVay put out this new book. Actually, I 933 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys saw already. I love it 934 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: he does. It's called sell It like Sean, kind of 935 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 1: like sirhand, but how to learn the McVeagh way. And 936 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,479 Speaker 1: I think that you should start hitting extra points because 937 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: we've seen two ties guys, two games decided by one 938 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: point in two weeks. About that is, we did the 939 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: Los Angeles RAS preseason games and they were going for 940 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 1: two and we were like, why are these guys going 941 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: for two so much? It's almost like Sea McVey new 942 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: going into the season, we're gonna be one of those 943 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: aggresive teams. The NFL wanted it, kay, They when they 944 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: pushed back these extra points, they wanted to make that 945 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: decision really because it's more fun to see the two 946 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 1: point version. How crazy it is to see all of 947 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: those teams just like losing like their guts or the 948 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 1: bottom of their hearts, in the bottom of their stomachs 949 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: all week with these kicking situations. And the Rams didn't 950 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 1: even sweat it. They were They're like, Okay, we lose 951 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: Greggs Orline, We're gonna just go for two over time 952 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: and it works out, and even if it doesn't work out, 953 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: you might come out on top. Yeah, it's almost like 954 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: the point after a touchdown is your overappreciated storyline, you 955 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: know what I mean. But those other teams are probably like, look, 956 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: we don't have girly, we don't have golf. It ain't 957 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: so easy for us. However, there's always a story you'll 958 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: see about there's some high school coach who all goes 959 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: for two never punts. Ever, that's the next level is 960 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: never and they always put up ninety six points when 961 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 1: ninety six to eighty five or something like that. I 962 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 1: would love to see it because moving the p eights 963 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: back made it a lot harder, and we're seeing a 964 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 1: lot of a miss when they say and they're going 965 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: for two, and the coach holes, it's so excited. I mean, 966 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: the two fingers there we go, quarterback, stay on the 967 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,760 Speaker 1: field and they got they say stand and they always 968 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 1: have some cool package of players for the two point vers. 969 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: We need more of them. I just feel like we 970 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 1: sort of took it for granted and it was underappreciated. 971 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 1: Extra points in general, they're sort of automatic, Yeah to automatic. Look, 972 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 1: we saw the Browns that they're not automatics. You might 973 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: as well, you know, put him go all in and 974 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: go for two. The Zane Gonzalez rule, which I want 975 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: to see way more like to go stay Warriors to 976 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: shoot the three point right. They moved for ten yard 977 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 1: line and left there be a three point conversion to see. 978 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm into that too, I'll go down. One of my 979 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 1: favorite guys in sports conversations on all these shows is 980 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,399 Speaker 1: on Pace Guy. He way too prematurely takes a small 981 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: sample size at the start of the season, extrapolates that 982 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: number over the course of entire year, and says he's 983 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 1: gonna do it. Toughie Roads for the Cubs. Once hit 984 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,279 Speaker 1: three home runs on opening day, on Pace Guy would 985 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: have said that he was on pace to have four 986 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty six home runs that year. There are 987 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 1: a lot of on pace guys out there. This meek 988 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 1: Patrick mahomes gonna have eighty touchdowns because he's already had 989 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 1: ten through two games. Ryan Fitzpatrick is on pace to 990 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: throw for sixty five hundred yards. But there is one 991 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 1: guy's record setting first two weeks that I'm not scoffing 992 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: at because he looks on stoppable with twenty eight, yes, 993 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: twenty eight receptions through two weeks. New Orleans wide receiver 994 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas is on pace for two hundred twenty four 995 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 1: catches this season. The all time single season record is 996 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 1: one hundred forty three from Marvin Harrison. Though cracking two 997 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 1: hundred seems very unlikely, this guy could come close. Let 998 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: me let me hear. Drew Breetz has targeted Thomas thirty 999 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: times through two weeks. He is the physical build, He's 1000 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 1: got the route running precision. He's got the gifts from 1001 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,879 Speaker 1: God hands that make him just about unstoppable from three 1002 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 1: yards or from eighty yards. And he can beat you 1003 00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: at the line, and he can beat you deep, and 1004 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't drop the football. You add in the other elements. 1005 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 1: Most accurate passer of all time, throwing him the ball, 1006 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: running back that can do it out of the back, 1007 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 1: then keeps defensive coordinators up all night, one of the 1008 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 1: best play callers in NFL history, and an offensive line 1009 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 1: that gives the quarterback all day to throw. Ad in 1010 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: the new rules that make it really difficult to stop 1011 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,240 Speaker 1: any wide receiver from doing anything, and I believe Michael 1012 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: Thomas has all the ingredients working for a record breaking season. 1013 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 1: He has a chase, not for one forty three, for 1014 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 1: two hundred. I want to see two hundred catches the 1015 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,320 Speaker 1: records one forty three, I want to see two hundred. 1016 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: Who has the all time record for catches through two weeks? 1017 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: Not Jerry Rice, not Randy Moss, David Gordon. Let's go 1018 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 1: to nineteen ninety four. In a postulage to quit Falcon's 1019 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: World show me Andre bad Moon Rise in two games 1020 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: and they were nasty. Rising caught fourteen balls for one 1021 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,760 Speaker 1: hundred ninety three yards in a week one loss to Detroit, 1022 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,320 Speaker 1: and then he caught twelve balls the following week. What 1023 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 1: makes this all the more amazing is that just four 1024 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,959 Speaker 1: months earlier, in June, his girlfriend, the late Lisa left 1025 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 1: I Lopez of TLC torched his Atlanta mansion by burning 1026 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:13,800 Speaker 1: all his sneakers in a whirlpool. Crazy sexy pool Rises 1027 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,919 Speaker 1: this season after burned down the house burns down in June, 1028 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 1: this out with his boys six mons, he burns his 1029 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: house down. Three months later, he's on pace to break 1030 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: the red. He was literally on fire. He was on fire. Guys. 1031 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: Rising would go on to finish with eighty one catchers 1032 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: that year. But I don't see Thomas slowing down. I 1033 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: mean Rising slowed down. He never had another double digit game. 1034 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 1: This guy can break the record. He's on pace to 1035 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 1: do things that no one has done at the position, 1036 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 1: and he has all the ingredients working for him. I 1037 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: just want to see him go for it, and I 1038 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: think two hundred is not that crazy. You are on pace, guy, 1039 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,440 Speaker 1: I'm on pace. It's so excited this. You just said ingredients, 1040 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: and right there he just laid out the recipe of 1041 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 1: why this could be a success. I'm at a little 1042 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,160 Speaker 1: season season in validate, and this is why I love this, 1043 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: because you said they threw the ball to him thirty times, 1044 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: twenty eight catches. It's impossible, the efficiency that he's playing 1045 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: with his ability to go snatch the ball. And then 1046 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 1: most importantly, we're showing those highlights. I didn't know the 1047 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: catches and the celebrations. I noticed how many different ways 1048 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: he was lined up on that field. He's catching the 1049 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 1: ball from everywhere outside, inside, put him in motion. That 1050 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: right there, that's the biggest recipe to success. It's simple 1051 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,319 Speaker 1: fact they're doing everything pre snap that makes them even 1052 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 1: harder than Steff. George was a great quarterback in his 1053 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 1: own right with the big arm Andrew Brees. Drew Brees 1054 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 1: is the most precise quarterback of all time, and he's 1055 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: got the best play caller not named Sean McVay in 1056 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: the league. I got a thing now. He's chasing Marvin 1057 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: Harrison and waterfalls right at the same time I've been 1058 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: told not to. You gotta do it, though, be careful. 1059 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: You gotta Kay is absolutely on it. The Rams don't 1060 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: need Legatron, at least not yet. Well.
