Let's good. That brings us 17 00:01:07,308 --> 00:01:11,708 Speaker 1: to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania thirty two twenty one. They get win 18 00:01:11,828 --> 00:01:15,348 Speaker 1: lates and the Commanders guys knock off the Eagles in 19 00:01:15,508 --> 00:01:17,988 Speaker 1: Philly in prime time. You know what we do in 20 00:01:17,988 --> 00:01:20,748 Speaker 1: these situations we have for both quarterbacks. After the game, Jalen, 21 00:01:21,428 --> 00:01:25,308 Speaker 1: why did the Eagles lose their first game of the season, 22 00:01:25,348 --> 00:01:29,948 Speaker 1: tell us place just the overall lack of detail and execution. 23 00:01:30,828 --> 00:01:34,588 Speaker 1: And today, goddess, you know what, I think. They're been 24 00:01:34,708 --> 00:01:38,468 Speaker 1: games in the past where you'd hear us say maybe 25 00:01:39,228 --> 00:01:42,748 Speaker 1: leaving money on the table, opportunities that we didn't take 26 00:01:42,748 --> 00:01:46,028 Speaker 1: advantage of, advantage of. And I look at this game 27 00:01:46,108 --> 00:01:50,028 Speaker 1: and I say, she was. We were repeat offenders of that. 28 00:01:50,468 --> 00:01:54,308 Speaker 1: And today a goddess to bounce back and and and 29 00:01:54,548 --> 00:01:58,468 Speaker 1: go against an undefeated Philly team at home at their place. Um, 30 00:01:58,948 --> 00:02:01,428 Speaker 1: they're undefeated, you know, Monday night football. And for us 31 00:02:01,428 --> 00:02:02,828 Speaker 1: to kind of battle like that and get a win 32 00:02:02,868 --> 00:02:04,668 Speaker 1: like this is huge. Rust's gonna have. You know, we 33 00:02:04,708 --> 00:02:07,108 Speaker 1: have a lot of confidence here going on. I probably 34 00:02:07,148 --> 00:02:10,628 Speaker 1: say it's probably the biggest win of my career. Again, 35 00:02:10,668 --> 00:02:13,428 Speaker 1: you know, it's a division opponent, undefeated, their place, Monday night. 36 00:02:13,788 --> 00:02:18,148 Speaker 1: Can't can't get much better than that. How about that? Hiinarchy, 37 00:02:18,428 --> 00:02:20,908 Speaker 1: that's a winner, He's a winners. He got great Listen, 38 00:02:21,188 --> 00:02:23,348 Speaker 1: huge upset. We're sitting there Tuesday morning, Oh my god, 39 00:02:23,348 --> 00:02:25,788 Speaker 1: the Eagles lost to the commanders. Jason, you watched the game, 40 00:02:25,828 --> 00:02:27,548 Speaker 1: you see it this morning. Where's your mind go? What's 41 00:02:27,588 --> 00:02:30,348 Speaker 1: your thing? Commanders? Man, give them credit, they had a 42 00:02:30,388 --> 00:02:33,068 Speaker 1: game plan, they executed it. But when you look at 43 00:02:33,068 --> 00:02:35,108 Speaker 1: that highlight and you look at two of those penalties 44 00:02:35,348 --> 00:02:37,828 Speaker 1: to happen in that game, the rest have a hard job. 45 00:02:37,868 --> 00:02:39,148 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say there and say all the rest 46 00:02:39,188 --> 00:02:42,468 Speaker 1: suck blah blah blah. But this face mask, it is 47 00:02:42,508 --> 00:02:45,668 Speaker 1: so evident, and I know they can't review it and say, oh, no, 48 00:02:45,708 --> 00:02:47,828 Speaker 1: we blew it. We missed the face mask go back 49 00:02:47,828 --> 00:02:49,988 Speaker 1: fifteen yard penalty. Friend, No, you can't do that. But 50 00:02:50,108 --> 00:02:52,228 Speaker 1: to miss this call at this part in the game, 51 00:02:52,228 --> 00:02:55,388 Speaker 1: and Dallas Gallery fumbles the ball, Washington recovers it, but 52 00:02:55,548 --> 00:02:58,708 Speaker 1: this is so clear. He has a huge chunk of 53 00:02:58,748 --> 00:03:02,028 Speaker 1: that face masks. He drags him down by it. One 54 00:03:02,068 --> 00:03:04,228 Speaker 1: of these officials have to be able to see this. 55 00:03:04,508 --> 00:03:06,548 Speaker 1: Did this lose the Eagles the game? No, I'm not 56 00:03:06,588 --> 00:03:09,468 Speaker 1: saying that, but Washington, They're able to get the ball 57 00:03:09,548 --> 00:03:12,668 Speaker 1: chained possession and make something of this a huge, huge 58 00:03:12,748 --> 00:03:15,508 Speaker 1: no call in that and then Brandon Graham And this 59 00:03:15,588 --> 00:03:17,308 Speaker 1: is a tough one for me because I'm a defender. 60 00:03:17,388 --> 00:03:20,228 Speaker 1: I get it. Brandon Graham's probably two sixty two seventy. 61 00:03:20,308 --> 00:03:23,428 Speaker 1: You're chasing the quarterback. He goes down, you see him. 62 00:03:23,468 --> 00:03:25,348 Speaker 1: He doesn't leave with his how many doesn't leave with 63 00:03:25,348 --> 00:03:27,788 Speaker 1: his shoulder pass. He leads with his hands almost like, 64 00:03:27,788 --> 00:03:30,268 Speaker 1: oh wow, he just went down. Let me brace myself. 65 00:03:30,268 --> 00:03:33,228 Speaker 1: But I can't come to a complete stop. But the 66 00:03:33,348 --> 00:03:35,828 Speaker 1: layers of the official set afterwards. It was not only 67 00:03:35,828 --> 00:03:37,868 Speaker 1: a hit. It was the head and neck area that 68 00:03:37,948 --> 00:03:40,108 Speaker 1: was hit. And that was the explanation from the pool reporter, 69 00:03:40,148 --> 00:03:42,308 Speaker 1: which is tough because he's down on the ground, like 70 00:03:42,468 --> 00:03:44,828 Speaker 1: where else are you going to hit him? You're sliding. 71 00:03:45,148 --> 00:03:47,148 Speaker 1: And the fact that both him and has Son Reddick 72 00:03:47,148 --> 00:03:49,508 Speaker 1: went with their hands first, that one made it tough 73 00:03:49,548 --> 00:03:51,988 Speaker 1: for me. I guess it's considered late. He goes down 74 00:03:52,028 --> 00:03:54,308 Speaker 1: and gives himself up. You really should just be touching 75 00:03:54,388 --> 00:03:57,028 Speaker 1: him down. But that's a tough way to end the game. 76 00:03:57,068 --> 00:03:59,468 Speaker 1: It was not a vicious or malicious hit. Here's how 77 00:03:59,508 --> 00:04:01,548 Speaker 1: you know. An Eagles fan and down the mount, Laurel 78 00:04:01,628 --> 00:04:06,228 Speaker 1: is running the teleprompter. It says, Jason talks bleep penalties. 79 00:04:06,628 --> 00:04:13,708 Speaker 1: That's the cue that right now, that really is just feeling, Look, 80 00:04:14,108 --> 00:04:16,628 Speaker 1: you give yourself. Any runner can give himself up that way. 81 00:04:16,668 --> 00:04:18,228 Speaker 1: By the way, by going down, the fact that it's 82 00:04:18,228 --> 00:04:20,148 Speaker 1: a quarterback, you just don't. As soon as it happened, 83 00:04:20,268 --> 00:04:22,748 Speaker 1: you have to. I know it sucks, But as soon 84 00:04:22,788 --> 00:04:25,228 Speaker 1: as it happened, I'm like, here comes the flag. There's 85 00:04:25,308 --> 00:04:27,148 Speaker 1: it's by the rules, by the weather black. I don't 86 00:04:27,148 --> 00:04:29,148 Speaker 1: see the head neck area part of it because I 87 00:04:29,188 --> 00:04:31,388 Speaker 1: know Kyle you mentioned that, but the contact ones he 88 00:04:31,428 --> 00:04:33,068 Speaker 1: goes down. As soon as it happened, I said, here 89 00:04:33,108 --> 00:04:34,948 Speaker 1: it comes. You know what's going to happen After seeing 90 00:04:34,948 --> 00:04:37,388 Speaker 1: the Grady Jarrett called the Chris Jones called now the 91 00:04:37,428 --> 00:04:39,948 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham called Super Bowl is going to be decided 92 00:04:39,948 --> 00:04:42,228 Speaker 1: by like a roughing the passer, and we're all gonna 93 00:04:42,228 --> 00:04:43,988 Speaker 1: be like, well that was Like well, guys, it was 94 00:04:44,028 --> 00:04:45,788 Speaker 1: in the it was in the water all season. Like 95 00:04:45,868 --> 00:04:48,228 Speaker 1: that's if you're not used to these calls by now, 96 00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,708 Speaker 1: guys get used to them. They arguing, and there's a 97 00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:53,428 Speaker 1: reason they want to protect the quarterbacks. That's what the 98 00:04:53,508 --> 00:04:57,388 Speaker 1: NFL wants, and gosh, if only the Eagles could stop 99 00:04:57,388 --> 00:04:59,988 Speaker 1: the running backs. I don't want to take anything away 100 00:05:00,068 --> 00:05:03,588 Speaker 1: from this Commander's win because they did what the Eagles 101 00:05:03,588 --> 00:05:06,068 Speaker 1: have done the teams all season as they rushed the 102 00:05:06,108 --> 00:05:09,468 Speaker 1: ball at such a forty nine times as the number 103 00:05:09,508 --> 00:05:13,628 Speaker 1: I saw four before it forty nine times. They rushed 104 00:05:13,628 --> 00:05:17,388 Speaker 1: the ball up and down this this you know vaunted 105 00:05:17,548 --> 00:05:20,468 Speaker 1: Eagles defensive line that we've heard so much about all season, 106 00:05:20,708 --> 00:05:22,668 Speaker 1: and that's what the Eagles have done all season. This 107 00:05:22,708 --> 00:05:24,948 Speaker 1: is what the Eagles path has been. We're gonna run 108 00:05:24,988 --> 00:05:26,228 Speaker 1: the ball down your throat. They're right hit a J. 109 00:05:26,348 --> 00:05:28,468 Speaker 1: Brown deep, and we're gonna occasionally do a little run 110 00:05:28,668 --> 00:05:31,268 Speaker 1: rpo stuff. But the core what the Eagles have been 111 00:05:31,308 --> 00:05:32,908 Speaker 1: it just run the ball down your throat. That's what 112 00:05:32,988 --> 00:05:34,908 Speaker 1: the That's what Washington did yesterday, and they did it 113 00:05:34,988 --> 00:05:37,988 Speaker 1: in the Philly building. I'm not taking anything away from 114 00:05:38,108 --> 00:05:41,188 Speaker 1: the Commanders, obviously, and Jason, I'm with you. I'm not 115 00:05:41,268 --> 00:05:44,908 Speaker 1: dismissing you. But the calls say, is that the blueprint? Though? 116 00:05:44,948 --> 00:05:46,748 Speaker 1: If you're if you're the rest of the league, like, 117 00:05:46,788 --> 00:05:50,188 Speaker 1: oh okay, well Washington, that's not say Quon Barkley back there, 118 00:05:50,188 --> 00:05:52,308 Speaker 1: that's not Jonathan Taylor. Brian Rob's a very nice player, 119 00:05:52,308 --> 00:05:54,108 Speaker 1: and they've got a good offensive line. But a lot 120 00:05:54,148 --> 00:05:56,108 Speaker 1: of teams can run the football. When you run the 121 00:05:56,108 --> 00:05:58,228 Speaker 1: football at that clip, that's a statement to the rest 122 00:05:58,268 --> 00:06:00,668 Speaker 1: of the league that, oh wait, their interior front, especially 123 00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:03,468 Speaker 1: without Jordan Davis, they can be had. They ran more 124 00:06:03,508 --> 00:06:05,708 Speaker 1: plays in the first half than any team has all season. 125 00:06:05,988 --> 00:06:07,988 Speaker 1: It was they were just running the clock and the clock. 126 00:06:08,348 --> 00:06:11,388 Speaker 1: Philadelphia had three turnovers in eight games before this three 127 00:06:11,428 --> 00:06:13,548 Speaker 1: and the eight games, and they had four last night. 128 00:06:13,748 --> 00:06:15,668 Speaker 1: And I like Sirihanni a lot. Afterwards. He looked like 129 00:06:15,708 --> 00:06:17,188 Speaker 1: we made our own lock and we played like crap. 130 00:06:17,308 --> 00:06:19,028 Speaker 1: So he wasn't taking the bate on that at all. 131 00:06:19,148 --> 00:06:21,588 Speaker 1: As far as Washington, I am so happy for the 132 00:06:21,628 --> 00:06:25,628 Speaker 1: Washington Commanders players and their coaching staff. Let's be honest, guys, 133 00:06:26,028 --> 00:06:27,908 Speaker 1: organization that doesn't have a lot of nights like this 134 00:06:27,988 --> 00:06:29,388 Speaker 1: and has a lot of bad days and a lot 135 00:06:29,388 --> 00:06:32,308 Speaker 1: of bad mornings. This week, they were sued by the 136 00:06:32,308 --> 00:06:34,868 Speaker 1: Attorney General. They issued a rebuttal that referenced one of 137 00:06:34,908 --> 00:06:36,748 Speaker 1: their players being shot and took all kinds of crap 138 00:06:36,788 --> 00:06:38,988 Speaker 1: for it. The head coach's mother passed away. He left 139 00:06:38,988 --> 00:06:40,748 Speaker 1: the team to attend the services. It was a lot 140 00:06:40,788 --> 00:06:43,268 Speaker 1: of negativity and sadness, and then they have their best win. 141 00:06:43,308 --> 00:06:45,788 Speaker 1: I guess in years, like in years that is. Never 142 00:06:45,828 --> 00:06:48,268 Speaker 1: mind what you may think about ownership or anything. The 143 00:06:48,308 --> 00:06:51,108 Speaker 1: guys on the field, the mclaurin's and the Robinsons and 144 00:06:51,108 --> 00:06:54,308 Speaker 1: the Henis. What a great night for them, And let's 145 00:06:54,308 --> 00:06:57,748 Speaker 1: get right into it. Are you ever taking Tyler Taylor 146 00:06:57,748 --> 00:07:00,788 Speaker 1: Henike off the field? Ever? Never? It's I don't even 147 00:07:00,868 --> 00:07:03,428 Speaker 1: want to see that as a segment on this show 148 00:07:03,988 --> 00:07:06,228 Speaker 1: or as lower third as we say in the industry. 149 00:07:06,348 --> 00:07:08,988 Speaker 1: Shouldn't they stick with Why would you not stick behind 150 00:07:08,988 --> 00:07:12,388 Speaker 1: the key? There is something that's so beautifully intangible about him. 151 00:07:12,428 --> 00:07:14,828 Speaker 1: They're a wildly different team when he plays. I think 152 00:07:14,828 --> 00:07:16,428 Speaker 1: this team was one and four at one point, like 153 00:07:16,468 --> 00:07:18,628 Speaker 1: they just awful. They're like, well, I guess we were 154 00:07:18,668 --> 00:07:20,348 Speaker 1: sitting here, like I guess the Commander season was over. 155 00:07:20,388 --> 00:07:22,628 Speaker 1: We love iran Um. He doesn't come out and throw 156 00:07:22,748 --> 00:07:25,148 Speaker 1: for three touchdowns, so he doesn't go for three hundred yards, 157 00:07:25,468 --> 00:07:27,708 Speaker 1: but he celebrates like a lunatic when they get a 158 00:07:27,748 --> 00:07:30,348 Speaker 1: rough in the pastorin and I love it, and I 159 00:07:30,508 --> 00:07:32,788 Speaker 1: know the Commanders love it. Chase Young on the plane 160 00:07:32,788 --> 00:07:36,988 Speaker 1: after they were shirtless, going banana doing the Kirk Cousins 161 00:07:37,108 --> 00:07:38,868 Speaker 1: thing with the yeah, and he's just sitting there at 162 00:07:38,868 --> 00:07:42,308 Speaker 1: a coach seat like a United flight Like huh. So, 163 00:07:42,748 --> 00:07:45,748 Speaker 1: I just like, can anybody make any case for Carson Wentz? 164 00:07:45,788 --> 00:07:48,188 Speaker 1: And you're not allowed to mention money, Like you cannot 165 00:07:48,228 --> 00:07:50,948 Speaker 1: mention money. It has to only be about winning football games. 166 00:07:51,148 --> 00:07:52,868 Speaker 1: I don't think he sees the field again, and I 167 00:07:52,868 --> 00:07:54,588 Speaker 1: don't think you should, And like, I don't even think 168 00:07:54,628 --> 00:07:57,668 Speaker 1: it's a debate, mic, I don't, uh you should. Every 169 00:07:57,668 --> 00:07:59,468 Speaker 1: time you make a great point this morning, just get 170 00:07:59,548 --> 00:08:02,068 Speaker 1: up and give it one of these times. Yeah, I 171 00:08:02,148 --> 00:08:04,988 Speaker 1: gave myself up and they sort of hit me. Graham 172 00:08:05,028 --> 00:08:07,388 Speaker 1: came close to my head. I was here for the 173 00:08:07,468 --> 00:08:10,628 Speaker 1: Heinekey's celebrations the entire night. Briand Robinson reaches right the 174 00:08:10,708 --> 00:08:14,988 Speaker 1: end zone him the whole time. There's just a great 175 00:08:15,068 --> 00:08:17,948 Speaker 1: vibe when Taylor Heineke is in the game, between him 176 00:08:17,948 --> 00:08:20,388 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator Scott Turner, it just seems like this 177 00:08:20,468 --> 00:08:22,988 Speaker 1: offense and the way they call it, everything just clicks 178 00:08:23,228 --> 00:08:26,348 Speaker 1: so much better when it's Heineke versus somebody else. And 179 00:08:26,388 --> 00:08:28,428 Speaker 1: I know that Turner loves the guy. He loves the 180 00:08:28,468 --> 00:08:31,308 Speaker 1: fact that he's competitive. He wishes he was probably three 181 00:08:31,308 --> 00:08:34,268 Speaker 1: inches taller. He wishes he had a stronger arm. If 182 00:08:34,308 --> 00:08:37,708 Speaker 1: he was, they'd have their franchise quarterback for the foreseeable 183 00:08:37,788 --> 00:08:40,548 Speaker 1: future here. But you know, this is why they made 184 00:08:40,548 --> 00:08:42,228 Speaker 1: the move for Carson Wentz in the off season or 185 00:08:42,268 --> 00:08:43,948 Speaker 1: somebody else. They just felt like, this is not the 186 00:08:44,028 --> 00:08:47,828 Speaker 1: prototypical franchise quarterback. But Kyle, you're right. It's just some 187 00:08:47,908 --> 00:08:50,028 Speaker 1: kind of swagger and some kind of edge that he brings. 188 00:08:50,028 --> 00:08:53,108 Speaker 1: And again, they vibe between quarterback and offensive coordinator. I 189 00:08:53,148 --> 00:08:55,948 Speaker 1: thought one of the best calls was after he snuck 190 00:08:55,988 --> 00:08:58,228 Speaker 1: it to get the third and one, they get right 191 00:08:58,228 --> 00:09:00,188 Speaker 1: back up. We just showed the play a short while ago. 192 00:09:00,308 --> 00:09:02,588 Speaker 1: Was that Pastor McLarin up the right side for forty 193 00:09:02,628 --> 00:09:05,028 Speaker 1: one yards on Darius Slay. I remember thinking to myself, 194 00:09:05,028 --> 00:09:07,188 Speaker 1: here comes a shot. I just know I've watched this team, 195 00:09:07,188 --> 00:09:09,548 Speaker 1: I've covered it. I'm like, here it comes Turner and 196 00:09:09,668 --> 00:09:11,548 Speaker 1: Heineke thinking of the same mind, And it was the 197 00:09:11,588 --> 00:09:13,428 Speaker 1: perfect call at the perfect time, set up with wound 198 00:09:13,508 --> 00:09:15,668 Speaker 1: up being the game winning field goal. So I agree 199 00:09:15,668 --> 00:09:17,548 Speaker 1: with you. I think you stick with Heineke for the time. Yeah, 200 00:09:17,628 --> 00:09:19,748 Speaker 1: McLaren said after the game. He was like, he's gritty, 201 00:09:19,788 --> 00:09:21,868 Speaker 1: he's nasty, He's the type of guy you want to 202 00:09:21,868 --> 00:09:24,188 Speaker 1: play with, and that's what he represents for their team 203 00:09:24,188 --> 00:09:26,028 Speaker 1: when he's out there on the field. There's just a 204 00:09:26,068 --> 00:09:28,628 Speaker 1: certain level of belief when you're watching it that they 205 00:09:28,668 --> 00:09:30,868 Speaker 1: have in him and they have in themselves when he's 206 00:09:30,868 --> 00:09:33,268 Speaker 1: out there making plays and celebrating this fun walk. And 207 00:09:33,308 --> 00:09:36,948 Speaker 1: if I may, Terry McLarin, there's a speech after the game. 208 00:09:36,988 --> 00:09:38,708 Speaker 1: We'll probably show it later in the show here with 209 00:09:38,828 --> 00:09:40,748 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera saying it's meant so much to my mother, 210 00:09:40,748 --> 00:09:43,028 Speaker 1: and then McLaren gets up and gives a speech for 211 00:09:43,108 --> 00:09:45,708 Speaker 1: Terry McLaren to be a team leader the way that 212 00:09:45,748 --> 00:09:48,308 Speaker 1: he's been. It's so weird to see a wide receiver 213 00:09:48,468 --> 00:09:51,148 Speaker 1: be it the sea on his jersey, because the voice 214 00:09:51,148 --> 00:09:52,868 Speaker 1: of the team, it's not a position at which you 215 00:09:52,948 --> 00:09:55,188 Speaker 1: usually see leaders. I'm not gonna say it's because they're 216 00:09:55,228 --> 00:09:57,508 Speaker 1: usually divas. I'll let Jason mccordy say that if he 217 00:09:57,548 --> 00:10:00,308 Speaker 1: wants to do. The former cornerback, but it's just you're 218 00:10:00,348 --> 00:10:02,468 Speaker 1: out there on your own A lot of times, it's 219 00:10:02,508 --> 00:10:04,228 Speaker 1: not up to you whether you get the football or not. 220 00:10:04,548 --> 00:10:06,468 Speaker 1: You know you're not in the center of the action. 221 00:10:06,508 --> 00:10:08,748 Speaker 1: So for a wide receiver like him to be the 222 00:10:08,828 --> 00:10:10,588 Speaker 1: kind of leader that he's been for this team. This 223 00:10:10,788 --> 00:10:13,268 Speaker 1: is Terry McLaurin appreciation Day. I guess you guys. Garret 224 00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:21,068 Speaker 1: fol has got text today. Okay, A significant developed development 225 00:10:21,108 --> 00:10:24,628 Speaker 1: in Cleveland. Deshaun Watson cleared to return to practice. He 226 00:10:24,668 --> 00:10:27,988 Speaker 1: will be back on the practice field tomorrow with the Browns. 227 00:10:28,028 --> 00:10:30,388 Speaker 1: Now he cannot play yet. He's got that Texans game 228 00:10:30,388 --> 00:10:32,268 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, which will be his return 229 00:10:32,348 --> 00:10:34,428 Speaker 1: to the playing field. But in the meantime he could 230 00:10:34,428 --> 00:10:36,628 Speaker 1: start to get in some work with his teammates as 231 00:10:36,628 --> 00:10:40,588 Speaker 1: he ramps himself up. Browns coach Kevin Stefanski's saying that 232 00:10:40,628 --> 00:10:43,708 Speaker 1: we are still going to prepare Jacoby Brissette as our starter. 233 00:10:43,948 --> 00:10:46,108 Speaker 1: Nothing that Deshaun is doing will take away from that. 234 00:10:46,148 --> 00:10:49,308 Speaker 1: So expect some of the targets to work with Deshaun Watson, 235 00:10:49,308 --> 00:10:51,948 Speaker 1: whether before practice or after practice. Get get a couple 236 00:10:51,948 --> 00:10:55,188 Speaker 1: of reps here and there, as again he ramps himself up. 237 00:10:55,228 --> 00:10:58,188 Speaker 1: So Deshaun Watson back in the building has met all 238 00:10:58,188 --> 00:11:00,988 Speaker 1: the conditions of his reinstatement. Roger Goodell saying that at 239 00:11:00,988 --> 00:11:02,868 Speaker 1: the league meetings a couple of weeks ago. So as 240 00:11:02,868 --> 00:11:06,068 Speaker 1: long as that continues, Watson on his way back to 241 00:11:06,148 --> 00:11:09,468 Speaker 1: the playing field, and not a moment too soon, football wise, 242 00:11:09,708 --> 00:11:11,708 Speaker 1: at least for the Cleveland Browns, who are struggling a 243 00:11:11,748 --> 00:11:15,028 Speaker 1: little bit right now. Time for clean start presented by 244 00:11:15,028 --> 00:11:17,108 Speaker 1: our friends at time. Oh yeah, it's gonna work. You're 245 00:11:17,148 --> 00:11:19,548 Speaker 1: gonna pick a team. You pick a player and a coach. 246 00:11:19,588 --> 00:11:22,068 Speaker 1: Pick anyone in the league and tell me either why 247 00:11:22,108 --> 00:11:24,508 Speaker 1: they a got a fresh start in week ten or 248 00:11:24,508 --> 00:11:27,868 Speaker 1: why they desperately need a fresh start in week eleven. Kyle, 249 00:11:28,348 --> 00:11:30,308 Speaker 1: who needs a fresh start? Who got one? I think 250 00:11:30,348 --> 00:11:31,868 Speaker 1: we should do a segment that's all guys who are 251 00:11:31,908 --> 00:11:33,708 Speaker 1: Crimson tied. If we're gonna be tied, like it's just 252 00:11:33,748 --> 00:11:35,548 Speaker 1: an idea, guys will throw it out there. That add 253 00:11:35,668 --> 00:11:38,788 Speaker 1: Alex Leatherwood. You want to do okay, I want to 254 00:11:38,788 --> 00:11:41,228 Speaker 1: look back on t J yelden Um. All right, fresh 255 00:11:41,268 --> 00:11:44,068 Speaker 1: start guys. Every once in a while, Tom Brady, who 256 00:11:44,068 --> 00:11:46,308 Speaker 1: just won internationally in the first game ever in Germany, 257 00:11:46,468 --> 00:11:48,308 Speaker 1: every once in a while is incredible as he is, 258 00:11:48,308 --> 00:11:49,828 Speaker 1: and as much as his life is so much different 259 00:11:49,828 --> 00:11:52,508 Speaker 1: than ours, he says something that is just completely relatable. 260 00:11:52,588 --> 00:11:54,908 Speaker 1: And after that when he did just that, and this 261 00:11:54,948 --> 00:11:58,348 Speaker 1: is him getting a fresh start. Go ahead, Tom, obviously, 262 00:11:58,348 --> 00:12:00,468 Speaker 1: this is an amazing thing that happened for our team. 263 00:12:00,508 --> 00:12:03,348 Speaker 1: And it's gonna be a fun ride home. I don't 264 00:12:03,348 --> 00:12:05,908 Speaker 1: know if we have alcohol in the lane, not that 265 00:12:05,948 --> 00:12:07,748 Speaker 1: I drink much, but it will be fun to watch 266 00:12:07,828 --> 00:12:11,868 Speaker 1: all the other guys drink. And I'm sure there might 267 00:12:11,908 --> 00:12:14,308 Speaker 1: be a few guys looking for some beer on the 268 00:12:14,308 --> 00:12:19,268 Speaker 1: way out to the airport. So we'll see. That's my quarterback. 269 00:12:19,508 --> 00:12:23,268 Speaker 1: That's people's quarterback. Guy wants to drink on an airplane. Whoa, 270 00:12:24,428 --> 00:12:27,068 Speaker 1: And there is something to that, because guys, listen, we 271 00:12:27,108 --> 00:12:29,508 Speaker 1: can identify in a way. We just flew back from Germany, 272 00:12:29,508 --> 00:12:32,868 Speaker 1: and three of us did, and like I have flight 273 00:12:32,908 --> 00:12:35,148 Speaker 1: back if you have a good final show, right, and 274 00:12:35,188 --> 00:12:37,268 Speaker 1: we kind of we got our job done and we 275 00:12:37,388 --> 00:12:39,508 Speaker 1: fly back and we're happy. And maybe it's beers and 276 00:12:39,548 --> 00:12:41,428 Speaker 1: all that stuff. But if we had just dropped the 277 00:12:41,428 --> 00:12:43,188 Speaker 1: ball and at a terrible show and at all these 278 00:12:43,188 --> 00:12:45,628 Speaker 1: wrong things on the air just been awful, we have 279 00:12:45,628 --> 00:12:47,388 Speaker 1: to go back and do another one. No, I think 280 00:12:47,388 --> 00:12:49,668 Speaker 1: they got a complete fresh start. Not only we talked 281 00:12:49,708 --> 00:12:51,908 Speaker 1: about this a lot and all these duties that Brady 282 00:12:51,948 --> 00:12:55,308 Speaker 1: had about oh the League leaving internationally and I'm representing 283 00:12:55,308 --> 00:12:57,828 Speaker 1: the sport. He really had to beat the Seahawks like 284 00:12:58,308 --> 00:13:01,108 Speaker 1: that game was critical for him, and he did, and 285 00:13:01,148 --> 00:13:02,948 Speaker 1: I think they got their mojo back and they found 286 00:13:02,988 --> 00:13:04,828 Speaker 1: this rookie running back. Who holy how wait do you 287 00:13:04,828 --> 00:13:07,108 Speaker 1: see next segment on this program how the Bucks are back? 288 00:13:07,148 --> 00:13:08,748 Speaker 1: They had beers in the plane, and that seems like 289 00:13:08,748 --> 00:13:10,188 Speaker 1: a little thing, but when it comes from Brady, I 290 00:13:10,228 --> 00:13:11,948 Speaker 1: feel like there's a little juice to them now. And 291 00:13:11,988 --> 00:13:14,188 Speaker 1: watch the hell out, Mike. It's like the guy that 292 00:13:14,268 --> 00:13:16,468 Speaker 1: has the one very rarely drinks has the one my 293 00:13:16,668 --> 00:13:20,548 Speaker 1: tie and he's yeah, let's go on, get weight and 294 00:13:20,628 --> 00:13:22,908 Speaker 1: the night boys, all right, Okay, he's gonna be an 295 00:13:22,908 --> 00:13:26,308 Speaker 1: early night for Tom tucked in the sheets. Yesterday we 296 00:13:26,308 --> 00:13:28,788 Speaker 1: were sitting at this table and both of you guys 297 00:13:28,788 --> 00:13:31,228 Speaker 1: here started there, Hey, why why are the Cardinals better? 298 00:13:31,228 --> 00:13:34,108 Speaker 1: When Polton McCoys, I wonder why. That is almost like 299 00:13:34,348 --> 00:13:38,028 Speaker 1: saying the quiet part out loud. Well, Kyler Murray, assuming 300 00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:40,788 Speaker 1: he's back this week for this game in Mexico on Monday, 301 00:13:41,148 --> 00:13:43,388 Speaker 1: needs a fresh start, needs to start getting back to 302 00:13:43,548 --> 00:13:46,428 Speaker 1: oh Okay, this is why he's drafted first overall, and 303 00:13:47,108 --> 00:13:50,148 Speaker 1: that sensational talent and his ability to move around and 304 00:13:50,468 --> 00:13:53,188 Speaker 1: really put some pressure on the defense with everything he's 305 00:13:53,228 --> 00:13:56,228 Speaker 1: able to do and working well with Kyler. With Kyler, 306 00:13:56,708 --> 00:13:59,388 Speaker 1: with Cliff Kingsbury's scheme, the two of them of the 307 00:13:59,508 --> 00:14:02,508 Speaker 1: same mind. And I remember when they first came in, 308 00:14:02,548 --> 00:14:04,228 Speaker 1: these two guys and they were they were working their 309 00:14:04,228 --> 00:14:07,508 Speaker 1: way into a groove in the NFL level, and defensive 310 00:14:07,548 --> 00:14:09,628 Speaker 1: backs were telling me, like, everything they're doing, it's like 311 00:14:09,668 --> 00:14:12,188 Speaker 1: so complicated, We've never seen it before. It's really hard 312 00:14:12,228 --> 00:14:15,068 Speaker 1: to dissect. Boy, they were giving us problems. We're not 313 00:14:15,148 --> 00:14:17,188 Speaker 1: there right now with the Cardinals. So Cliff Kingsbury and 314 00:14:17,228 --> 00:14:19,148 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray need a fresh start. Yeah, we'll be able 315 00:14:19,148 --> 00:14:21,388 Speaker 1: to tune into a Hard Knocks in the season. There 316 00:14:21,468 --> 00:14:24,068 Speaker 1: was a team before the season started on Hard Knocks 317 00:14:24,068 --> 00:14:25,828 Speaker 1: that we were watching that we fell in love with, 318 00:14:25,908 --> 00:14:29,948 Speaker 1: Dan Campbell, Grit Metallica, the whole nine. They got a 319 00:14:29,988 --> 00:14:32,668 Speaker 1: fresh start Week ten, they're able to get their back 320 00:14:32,708 --> 00:14:35,748 Speaker 1: to back wins, their first win on the role in 321 00:14:35,908 --> 00:14:38,828 Speaker 1: two seasons. This is the first time they wanted somebody 322 00:14:38,908 --> 00:14:42,228 Speaker 1: else's stadium, beating the Chicago Bears back to back wins 323 00:14:42,428 --> 00:14:45,268 Speaker 1: within the division, and now you're looking at the Detroit 324 00:14:45,348 --> 00:14:47,868 Speaker 1: Lions team and an NFC that this week, and it's 325 00:14:47,908 --> 00:14:49,788 Speaker 1: just like, wow, they won two games in a role. 326 00:14:49,868 --> 00:14:52,268 Speaker 1: If they can keep things rolling, where can they end 327 00:14:52,348 --> 00:14:54,188 Speaker 1: up at the end of the season. Now they have 328 00:14:54,228 --> 00:14:56,868 Speaker 1: a huge test coming up. They're traveling to go against 329 00:14:56,868 --> 00:14:59,308 Speaker 1: the New York Giants, a team that's rolling, just coming 330 00:14:59,348 --> 00:15:01,988 Speaker 1: off victory over the Houston Texans, so there's gonna be 331 00:15:02,028 --> 00:15:04,108 Speaker 1: a big test for them. But they're young players are 332 00:15:04,148 --> 00:15:06,548 Speaker 1: start the catch fire. We're seeing guys on the defense, 333 00:15:06,828 --> 00:15:11,388 Speaker 1: Jeff Akoda, Kirby, Joseph Aidan, Hudginson, guys making plays and 334 00:15:11,428 --> 00:15:14,188 Speaker 1: they're buying into the system for a young team, when 335 00:15:14,228 --> 00:15:16,548 Speaker 1: you start to stack those wins and you believe in 336 00:15:16,588 --> 00:15:19,948 Speaker 1: your coach, that confidence starts to roll in. The line's 337 00:15:19,988 --> 00:15:22,188 Speaker 1: gonna go on to run. See let's see why not 338 00:15:22,228 --> 00:15:24,828 Speaker 1: talk about it? I like us, It's invigorating. Yeah, and 339 00:15:25,268 --> 00:15:26,908 Speaker 1: the team I'm gonna talk about it was two and 340 00:15:26,988 --> 00:15:29,108 Speaker 1: six going into their bye week. They just lost thirty 341 00:15:29,148 --> 00:15:31,868 Speaker 1: three to fourteen to the Eagles. They were embarrassed on 342 00:15:31,948 --> 00:15:36,028 Speaker 1: national TV, and then they came out last week and 343 00:15:36,468 --> 00:15:39,308 Speaker 1: looked like the dominant team in that uniform in that 344 00:15:39,388 --> 00:15:41,468 Speaker 1: stadium that we've seen for the last twenty years. The 345 00:15:41,508 --> 00:15:44,628 Speaker 1: Steelers been. Steelers got a fresh start and I'm want 346 00:15:44,628 --> 00:15:47,228 Speaker 1: to look at t J. Watt back on the field. Hey, TJ. 347 00:15:47,308 --> 00:15:48,868 Speaker 1: Watt was a defensive Player of the Year last year 348 00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:50,428 Speaker 1: but hasn't met on the field. He's back on the 349 00:15:50,468 --> 00:15:52,188 Speaker 1: field and he was like shot out of a cannon 350 00:15:52,228 --> 00:15:54,988 Speaker 1: in this game. If he didn't watch much of Steelers 351 00:15:55,108 --> 00:15:58,108 Speaker 1: Saints on Sunday, let me tell you it was the 352 00:15:58,188 --> 00:16:01,148 Speaker 1: Steelers running the ball up the gut, getting production from 353 00:16:01,188 --> 00:16:03,628 Speaker 1: their rookies, and then the TJ Watch show flying all 354 00:16:03,668 --> 00:16:06,428 Speaker 1: over the field and doing a lot of the extracurriculum. 355 00:16:06,508 --> 00:16:08,748 Speaker 1: Is the hyped up stuff that we have not seen 356 00:16:08,908 --> 00:16:11,148 Speaker 1: out of this Pittsburgh. Do we have a tornpecked oral 357 00:16:12,148 --> 00:16:15,148 Speaker 1: back to tear that back? You know? They asked after 358 00:16:15,188 --> 00:16:16,748 Speaker 1: the game in the locker room, like what was it? 359 00:16:17,188 --> 00:16:20,028 Speaker 1: And Kevin Dotson, who's one of the guards, said that 360 00:16:20,068 --> 00:16:21,588 Speaker 1: coach Tom On the main thing he did was he 361 00:16:21,668 --> 00:16:24,068 Speaker 1: just opened up the air during the bye week. It 362 00:16:24,148 --> 00:16:26,228 Speaker 1: was like there's nothing to lose, Like we're two and six, 363 00:16:26,868 --> 00:16:29,268 Speaker 1: let's talk, Let's have at it. Guys went at it. 364 00:16:29,268 --> 00:16:31,508 Speaker 1: It got uncomfortable at times, and they came out as 365 00:16:31,508 --> 00:16:34,348 Speaker 1: a unified bunch. I'm looking at the record right now 366 00:16:34,388 --> 00:16:37,108 Speaker 1: and I know too soon to do it. Play the 367 00:16:37,108 --> 00:16:40,028 Speaker 1: Bengals this week, gree and six. You win a game, 368 00:16:40,068 --> 00:16:42,148 Speaker 1: you're four and six, when another game you're five and six. 369 00:16:42,388 --> 00:16:45,108 Speaker 1: Tom One does not have losing seasons, That's all I'm saying. 370 00:16:45,668 --> 00:16:47,668 Speaker 1: And they've got this rookie quarterback who was a little 371 00:16:47,668 --> 00:16:50,268 Speaker 1: more comfortable, and they've got the raining defensive player of 372 00:16:50,308 --> 00:16:52,868 Speaker 1: the year on that field. Hey, Steelers got a fresh start. 373 00:16:52,908 --> 00:17:03,668 Speaker 1: Let's go Peter, come on, Eagles lose and guy serious 374 00:17:03,668 --> 00:17:06,548 Speaker 1: the deal. He Ron rivera our favorite coach on the show, 375 00:17:06,868 --> 00:17:11,348 Speaker 1: lost his mother earlier this year and got really emotional 376 00:17:11,508 --> 00:17:13,788 Speaker 1: last night following the victory, and what's been a very 377 00:17:13,868 --> 00:17:33,108 Speaker 1: very long week for him went My mother would have 378 00:17:33,108 --> 00:17:43,948 Speaker 1: been prepped. You can see how much that means to him. 379 00:17:44,148 --> 00:17:46,348 Speaker 1: It means a lot to everybody in this locker room. Bro. 380 00:17:46,588 --> 00:17:49,548 Speaker 1: We second, we took it to him. We all got 381 00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:57,428 Speaker 1: no but all the special teams. We come to practice, 382 00:17:57,468 --> 00:17:59,388 Speaker 1: we practice hard. We take it to people. We'd be 383 00:17:59,468 --> 00:18:13,028 Speaker 1: optnistic and we're gonna win games broad we will try 384 00:18:13,068 --> 00:18:27,588 Speaker 1: to get Already, it's hard not to be emotional listening 385 00:18:27,588 --> 00:18:29,748 Speaker 1: to Ron Rivera get choked up and then seeing Terry 386 00:18:29,828 --> 00:18:32,748 Speaker 1: McLaurin step up and give that speech. Mikey talked about 387 00:18:32,748 --> 00:18:35,188 Speaker 1: it in the first hour, mclaurin's impact on this team, 388 00:18:35,188 --> 00:18:37,308 Speaker 1: but also what's going on in Washington that feels like 389 00:18:37,348 --> 00:18:40,308 Speaker 1: a team that's believing right now. Absolutely is a team 390 00:18:40,388 --> 00:18:42,708 Speaker 1: that's believing. Look, they've got talent. I mean you saw 391 00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:45,308 Speaker 1: that on the roster coming in, which is why they 392 00:18:45,348 --> 00:18:47,708 Speaker 1: made the move for Carson Wentz this offseason. They felt like, 393 00:18:47,708 --> 00:18:49,588 Speaker 1: we got to get that quarterback that gets us over 394 00:18:49,628 --> 00:18:51,948 Speaker 1: the top. Taylor Heineke, You're gonna win a lot of 395 00:18:51,948 --> 00:18:53,668 Speaker 1: football games in the NFL. And they have won a 396 00:18:53,708 --> 00:18:56,268 Speaker 1: lot of football games in the NFL with Taylor heine quarterback, 397 00:18:56,308 --> 00:18:58,748 Speaker 1: but they wanted to kind of get somebody that's gonna 398 00:18:59,188 --> 00:19:02,548 Speaker 1: match the talent that they had elsewhere on the roster. Um. 399 00:19:02,748 --> 00:19:05,068 Speaker 1: I believe Heineke continues to be the guy. Kylie made 400 00:19:05,068 --> 00:19:07,388 Speaker 1: that case in the first hour. I truly believe he's 401 00:19:07,388 --> 00:19:10,548 Speaker 1: gonna wind up being their starting quarterback for the time being. 402 00:19:10,748 --> 00:19:12,988 Speaker 1: As for the Eagles end of things here and the 403 00:19:13,028 --> 00:19:15,028 Speaker 1: fact that this perfect season was ending, I've been doing 404 00:19:15,108 --> 00:19:18,748 Speaker 1: radio interviews here and there were spot the Eagles first loss. 405 00:19:18,828 --> 00:19:21,148 Speaker 1: Spot the Eagles first loss probably gonna be somewhere that 406 00:19:21,188 --> 00:19:24,348 Speaker 1: you're not even expecting. I mean, I wasn't confusing this 407 00:19:24,388 --> 00:19:28,108 Speaker 1: team for the O seven Patriots. They're really good. They're 408 00:19:28,108 --> 00:19:31,308 Speaker 1: not perfect. Nobody's really perfect. I mean, and now you 409 00:19:31,348 --> 00:19:32,828 Speaker 1: look at this, you say, oh, is there cause for 410 00:19:32,908 --> 00:19:34,868 Speaker 1: concern for the Eagles? We go right to that, we 411 00:19:34,948 --> 00:19:37,148 Speaker 1: go right from Are they going to be perfect? Too? 412 00:19:37,348 --> 00:19:39,468 Speaker 1: Is there a cause for thereink? It's fair to ask 413 00:19:39,628 --> 00:19:42,068 Speaker 1: for the Eagles and they just got at home, and 414 00:19:42,148 --> 00:19:44,108 Speaker 1: it's fair to ask is cause for concern because that 415 00:19:44,108 --> 00:19:45,868 Speaker 1: team right there? Is it winning any playoff games? But 416 00:19:45,868 --> 00:19:48,348 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think so, because what's the barometer 417 00:19:48,388 --> 00:19:50,548 Speaker 1: for that. Look around the league, everybody's got one of 418 00:19:50,588 --> 00:19:52,988 Speaker 1: these losses right now. I mean, Minnesota when they went 419 00:19:53,028 --> 00:19:55,788 Speaker 1: to Philly earlier this season, looked like they couldn't compete 420 00:19:55,828 --> 00:19:58,788 Speaker 1: with that team. The Buffalo Bills have had two questionable 421 00:19:58,828 --> 00:20:02,028 Speaker 1: losses in two weeks now. Baltimore had that game against 422 00:20:02,068 --> 00:20:05,428 Speaker 1: the Giants where they folded down the stretch. Kansas City 423 00:20:05,508 --> 00:20:07,468 Speaker 1: lost the game to Indianapolis where they look like they 424 00:20:07,468 --> 00:20:09,108 Speaker 1: couldn't get out of their own way. So I just 425 00:20:09,388 --> 00:20:10,988 Speaker 1: I don't sit here and say like, oh, we go 426 00:20:11,108 --> 00:20:13,988 Speaker 1: right from seventeen and Oz right to panic. It's just 427 00:20:14,068 --> 00:20:16,468 Speaker 1: these games are happening for a lot of teams around 428 00:20:16,468 --> 00:20:17,868 Speaker 1: the leaue right now. Yeah, I agree with you. And 429 00:20:17,908 --> 00:20:21,068 Speaker 1: before I get into that, just watching that locker room scene, 430 00:20:21,188 --> 00:20:24,068 Speaker 1: like being a former player and seeing that, like that's 431 00:20:24,068 --> 00:20:25,948 Speaker 1: what you miss. So you guys we've talked about on 432 00:20:25,948 --> 00:20:27,828 Speaker 1: the show, like Jay, like you're watching it, do you 433 00:20:27,868 --> 00:20:29,828 Speaker 1: miss No? I don't like guys getting ran over all 434 00:20:29,828 --> 00:20:32,868 Speaker 1: of that contact. I don't miss that. But those moments, 435 00:20:32,908 --> 00:20:35,708 Speaker 1: like you spend so much time within the locker room, 436 00:20:35,708 --> 00:20:38,308 Speaker 1: like for Ron Rivera, you're spending more time around your 437 00:20:38,348 --> 00:20:40,868 Speaker 1: players and coaches and you probably are with your family 438 00:20:40,948 --> 00:20:43,468 Speaker 1: during the season, just because there's so many hours spending 439 00:20:43,508 --> 00:20:46,388 Speaker 1: that building and there's so many emotions. There's a roller coasters, 440 00:20:46,388 --> 00:20:49,308 Speaker 1: there's the highs, there's the lows, and to share in 441 00:20:49,308 --> 00:20:52,228 Speaker 1: those moments that are special, like that hearing Ron Rivera 442 00:20:52,308 --> 00:20:55,508 Speaker 1: talking then seeing Terry McLaurin, like you're sensing everything going 443 00:20:55,508 --> 00:20:58,548 Speaker 1: on around you and bringing the guys together, Like that's 444 00:20:58,548 --> 00:21:01,308 Speaker 1: what it's all about, when loss, tie, whatever the case 445 00:21:01,348 --> 00:21:04,268 Speaker 1: may be. But those relationships go such a long way 446 00:21:04,388 --> 00:21:06,388 Speaker 1: and it's so meaningful. We see it as just a 447 00:21:06,428 --> 00:21:09,308 Speaker 1: clip in the locker room, but those moments bring everybody 448 00:21:09,348 --> 00:21:12,068 Speaker 1: together and able you to gain the momentum to go 449 00:21:12,068 --> 00:21:14,588 Speaker 1: on a run. But for the Philadelphia Eagles, like I'm 450 00:21:14,628 --> 00:21:17,028 Speaker 1: right with you, like there's no reason to panic. I mean, 451 00:21:17,068 --> 00:21:19,668 Speaker 1: they lost that game. They played awful, and if I'm them, 452 00:21:19,708 --> 00:21:21,708 Speaker 1: I'm looking at it like, all right, here was our mulligan. 453 00:21:21,828 --> 00:21:24,668 Speaker 1: Like we went out, we didn't show up, we had turnovers. 454 00:21:24,668 --> 00:21:26,868 Speaker 1: It wasn't our type of game that we played all 455 00:21:26,908 --> 00:21:29,828 Speaker 1: season long. Get in the film room today, learn from it, 456 00:21:30,028 --> 00:21:32,748 Speaker 1: make the corrections, put your pride to side, and then 457 00:21:32,828 --> 00:21:34,628 Speaker 1: move on. It just wasn't their type of game. It 458 00:21:34,708 --> 00:21:36,708 Speaker 1: wasn't their night, and they were gonna have that moment 459 00:21:36,708 --> 00:21:39,468 Speaker 1: at some point. The goal was never to be undefeated 460 00:21:39,508 --> 00:21:42,068 Speaker 1: this season. It's to gone and compete for a Super Bowl. 461 00:21:42,268 --> 00:21:43,948 Speaker 1: All of those things are still in front of them, 462 00:21:43,948 --> 00:21:47,148 Speaker 1: to still number one in the NFC. So make those corrections, 463 00:21:47,188 --> 00:21:48,948 Speaker 1: move on and play ball. You guys are right, of course, 464 00:21:48,988 --> 00:21:52,388 Speaker 1: but I'll go the other way because super Bowls are 465 00:21:52,468 --> 00:21:56,108 Speaker 1: lost week nine, sometimes, week ten sometimes because if you 466 00:21:56,148 --> 00:21:59,588 Speaker 1: are eight, no, screw perfect season. It's it's so overrated 467 00:21:59,588 --> 00:22:01,988 Speaker 1: and it's so obsessed about. If you're eight, No, what 468 00:22:02,068 --> 00:22:05,188 Speaker 1: you're thinking about is one seed. You're thinking home field, 469 00:22:05,228 --> 00:22:09,308 Speaker 1: you're thinking by that's what's at risk because the Vikings 470 00:22:09,348 --> 00:22:12,068 Speaker 1: aren't losing any games. And if it just comes down to, yeah, 471 00:22:12,068 --> 00:22:13,388 Speaker 1: they did beat the Vikings, but we got a lot 472 00:22:13,428 --> 00:22:15,708 Speaker 1: of football to play. And if you end up with 473 00:22:16,228 --> 00:22:18,908 Speaker 1: three losses and the Vikings two, and instead of playing 474 00:22:18,908 --> 00:22:21,468 Speaker 1: the NFC title game in Philadelphia, you're going to Minnesota 475 00:22:21,508 --> 00:22:23,508 Speaker 1: and that Dome, It's like, God, why did we lose 476 00:22:23,588 --> 00:22:26,108 Speaker 1: the damn Commanders back then? That really cost us. So 477 00:22:26,388 --> 00:22:28,588 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is like they are not They're back 478 00:22:28,588 --> 00:22:30,468 Speaker 1: in the pool now with everybody. Yea, they don't have 479 00:22:30,548 --> 00:22:32,948 Speaker 1: the best record. They don't. They're not running away. They're 480 00:22:32,948 --> 00:22:35,348 Speaker 1: not going to finish seventeen and no, probably not even 481 00:22:35,388 --> 00:22:38,108 Speaker 1: sixteen and one. So I don't I think that the 482 00:22:38,188 --> 00:22:40,548 Speaker 1: Eagles are great. I think they had some weird penalties, 483 00:22:40,988 --> 00:22:44,068 Speaker 1: very uncharacteristic, bizarre turnovers, and they lost to a very 484 00:22:44,068 --> 00:22:46,548 Speaker 1: emotional team who as a coach they rally around, a 485 00:22:46,668 --> 00:22:48,828 Speaker 1: quarterback they rally around, and one of the best leaders 486 00:22:48,828 --> 00:22:50,828 Speaker 1: in the league that's right in front of us, Terry McLaurin. 487 00:22:51,028 --> 00:22:53,868 Speaker 1: Tough night. Just don't lose two or three more or 488 00:22:53,908 --> 00:22:56,308 Speaker 1: one or two more, because like the Vikings are on 489 00:22:56,348 --> 00:22:58,988 Speaker 1: some sort of bizarre juju too, and they're rallying behind 490 00:22:58,988 --> 00:23:01,708 Speaker 1: their quarterback and their defense and in their only way 491 00:23:01,708 --> 00:23:04,188 Speaker 1: of their coach. So last night it looked all great eight. No, 492 00:23:04,468 --> 00:23:06,028 Speaker 1: we're the toast of the league. We're gonna have a 493 00:23:06,148 --> 00:23:09,468 Speaker 1: home field. Not so fast, my friend. You can lose 494 00:23:09,468 --> 00:23:11,388 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl because you play it on the road, 495 00:23:11,388 --> 00:23:13,188 Speaker 1: because you lost to the Commanders, and that is the 496 00:23:13,188 --> 00:23:15,708 Speaker 1: weight that comes with being the front runner in this league. 497 00:23:15,788 --> 00:23:18,028 Speaker 1: So it made I don't Peter, I think they're great. 498 00:23:18,068 --> 00:23:20,308 Speaker 1: I think they're I think they're awesome, But I'm okay 499 00:23:20,348 --> 00:23:22,028 Speaker 1: by them. The com Byteelers were eleven or a couple 500 00:23:22,068 --> 00:23:24,268 Speaker 1: years ago, no one remembers like the twenty nineteen Steelers 501 00:23:24,348 --> 00:23:27,108 Speaker 1: now are twenty twenty Steelers. Don't talk someone Paris. You're right. 502 00:23:27,228 --> 00:23:29,108 Speaker 1: Here's a stat with I'll go here. None of the 503 00:23:29,228 --> 00:23:32,388 Speaker 1: last eleven teams who started a season eight and oh 504 00:23:32,548 --> 00:23:35,508 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. Okay, okay, only four of them 505 00:23:36,188 --> 00:23:38,548 Speaker 1: even made it. The last one to win a Super 506 00:23:38,548 --> 00:23:40,468 Speaker 1: Bowl was the OH nine Saints, and they even had 507 00:23:40,468 --> 00:23:42,348 Speaker 1: their hiccup down in December. They lost a couple of 508 00:23:42,388 --> 00:23:44,428 Speaker 1: games and it was like, oh, the Saint shocked the 509 00:23:44,508 --> 00:23:49,308 Speaker 1: Colts in the Super Bowl. But it's true, like these 510 00:23:49,508 --> 00:23:53,988 Speaker 1: Super Bowls are one in December and in January, and 511 00:23:54,028 --> 00:23:56,228 Speaker 1: if you could put yourself in position to be the 512 00:23:56,268 --> 00:23:59,828 Speaker 1: hot team going into those months, that's great. But whether 513 00:23:59,868 --> 00:24:01,828 Speaker 1: it was the Chiefs who started off three and four 514 00:24:02,148 --> 00:24:04,268 Speaker 1: a couple of years back, or whether it was a 515 00:24:04,428 --> 00:24:06,588 Speaker 1: course the Brady Bucks when they went into their by 516 00:24:06,628 --> 00:24:09,348 Speaker 1: after losing to Kansas City and we're like, we're seven 517 00:24:09,348 --> 00:24:11,708 Speaker 1: and five, but we played pretty good against Kent City 518 00:24:11,708 --> 00:24:13,388 Speaker 1: and lost, like we can do this run. Then the 519 00:24:13,428 --> 00:24:16,388 Speaker 1: Rams lose three in a row last year in the season, 520 00:24:16,468 --> 00:24:18,708 Speaker 1: so right to me, the whole point of that is 521 00:24:20,228 --> 00:24:23,548 Speaker 1: maybe this is good. Get rid of this. Like on 522 00:24:23,628 --> 00:24:25,428 Speaker 1: the j Brown was saying that after the game, he's 523 00:24:25,428 --> 00:24:27,988 Speaker 1: like one catch for set up yards. It was like, 524 00:24:28,108 --> 00:24:30,548 Speaker 1: I'm good not talking about this undefeated thing. Mike, you're 525 00:24:30,588 --> 00:24:33,068 Speaker 1: talking about your radio interviews. None of us can do 526 00:24:33,148 --> 00:24:35,748 Speaker 1: anything media wise without having to do that that gimmick 527 00:24:35,828 --> 00:24:38,308 Speaker 1: of let's bring up the schedule. We hate it so much. 528 00:24:38,468 --> 00:24:42,028 Speaker 1: It's so it's so deplorable for us because we don't know, 529 00:24:42,228 --> 00:24:44,228 Speaker 1: and we know we don't know, but we're playing along 530 00:24:44,268 --> 00:24:46,828 Speaker 1: with the hosts, and we're like, well, Tennessee, Derrick Henry's 531 00:24:46,828 --> 00:24:49,828 Speaker 1: gotta go. But then again, maybe Jordan Davis is back. 532 00:24:49,868 --> 00:24:51,588 Speaker 1: Like it's not even like they're twelve, and oh they're eight, 533 00:24:51,588 --> 00:24:54,348 Speaker 1: and oh it's halfway. I say all this because us, 534 00:24:54,628 --> 00:24:57,028 Speaker 1: I think it's good. Nip this in the bud. Now, 535 00:24:57,428 --> 00:24:59,668 Speaker 1: get rid of this narrative. It's too much. It's such 536 00:24:59,668 --> 00:25:02,788 Speaker 1: a burden. Let Mercury Morris and the boys have their shame. 537 00:25:02,948 --> 00:25:06,068 Speaker 1: They did like they did. Let them have it. Now 538 00:25:06,148 --> 00:25:08,748 Speaker 1: we're done with that. Let's just be the best team 539 00:25:08,828 --> 00:25:12,068 Speaker 1: come December, come January, and let's ride into this thing 540 00:25:12,308 --> 00:25:14,708 Speaker 1: and play our best football. Last night's forgettable. It's fine. 541 00:25:14,708 --> 00:25:16,028 Speaker 1: I think it was almost a good thing. Get rid 542 00:25:16,028 --> 00:25:18,388 Speaker 1: of it now. Speaking of radio interviews, I think this 543 00:25:18,468 --> 00:25:21,148 Speaker 1: is gonna be cat nip for the Jimmy Johnson's of 544 00:25:21,188 --> 00:25:22,868 Speaker 1: the World. Jimmy Johnson, I believe he was with the 545 00:25:22,908 --> 00:25:25,628 Speaker 1: Associated Press, did a podcast last week where he was 546 00:25:25,668 --> 00:25:28,228 Speaker 1: talking about how the Eagles have holes in their game 547 00:25:28,428 --> 00:25:32,028 Speaker 1: right there. They get off the great starts and games, 548 00:25:32,028 --> 00:25:34,228 Speaker 1: so then teams catch up to what they're doing and 549 00:25:34,268 --> 00:25:36,308 Speaker 1: that's why they're not as successful in the second half 550 00:25:36,308 --> 00:25:39,108 Speaker 1: and they don't play the kind of football that's gonna 551 00:25:39,268 --> 00:25:41,428 Speaker 1: lend them to be successful later in the season. So 552 00:25:41,588 --> 00:25:43,748 Speaker 1: when when you talk about calls for concern for Eagles, 553 00:25:43,748 --> 00:25:45,628 Speaker 1: the people that already had it in their minds are 554 00:25:45,628 --> 00:25:48,428 Speaker 1: gonna say, see, there it is. It was exposed, and 555 00:25:48,508 --> 00:25:50,268 Speaker 1: this is why they can't be the team that's going 556 00:25:50,308 --> 00:25:56,668 Speaker 1: to come out of the NFC. So we'll see. Welcome 557 00:25:56,668 --> 00:25:58,828 Speaker 1: back to Good Morning Football. We now welcome to the 558 00:25:58,868 --> 00:26:01,428 Speaker 1: show our NFL network front office analysts because they five 559 00:26:01,468 --> 00:26:04,028 Speaker 1: time NFL Executive of the Year. He's won three Super Bowls, 560 00:26:04,028 --> 00:26:07,228 Speaker 1: is president of player Personnel with the Patriots, and he's 561 00:26:07,268 --> 00:26:09,188 Speaker 1: a friend of ours. Welcome back to the program, mister 562 00:26:09,268 --> 00:26:14,668 Speaker 1: Scott pe Good morning everyone, welcome back to part of 563 00:26:14,708 --> 00:26:18,748 Speaker 1: the crew. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Scott. It's 564 00:26:18,788 --> 00:26:20,668 Speaker 1: good to be back and it was good to be 565 00:26:20,668 --> 00:26:23,548 Speaker 1: back on Sunday because we had an all time game 566 00:26:23,588 --> 00:26:25,948 Speaker 1: as far as regular season games go, between the Bills 567 00:26:25,988 --> 00:26:29,148 Speaker 1: and the Vikings, and now Buffalo Falls is six and three. 568 00:26:29,668 --> 00:26:32,588 Speaker 1: Josh Allen leads the league interceptions, and people are sniping 569 00:26:32,668 --> 00:26:35,428 Speaker 1: left and right. No longer the MVP. All of these 570 00:26:35,428 --> 00:26:38,028 Speaker 1: things are coming in from all angles. So I ask 571 00:26:38,108 --> 00:26:41,788 Speaker 1: you what happens inside the building when your best player 572 00:26:42,628 --> 00:26:47,828 Speaker 1: is not necessssarily playing his best in the moments that matter. Peter, 573 00:26:47,908 --> 00:26:50,068 Speaker 1: you have to remember that your best player is still 574 00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:53,028 Speaker 1: a young player, right, Josh Allen's only twenty six years old, 575 00:26:53,228 --> 00:26:55,028 Speaker 1: So I think you have to spend time with him. 576 00:26:55,028 --> 00:26:58,108 Speaker 1: The head coach, the support staff, the coordinator. When I 577 00:26:58,108 --> 00:27:00,068 Speaker 1: say the support staff, I'm talking about the cordiners, the 578 00:27:00,148 --> 00:27:03,748 Speaker 1: assistant coaches, the general manager. Spend time listening to him, 579 00:27:04,028 --> 00:27:06,668 Speaker 1: talk to him, but listen to him, watch his body language, 580 00:27:06,668 --> 00:27:09,308 Speaker 1: listen to his words, and help him figure this out. 581 00:27:09,588 --> 00:27:11,508 Speaker 1: What he's gone through so far has really been a 582 00:27:11,548 --> 00:27:13,908 Speaker 1: blessing and a curse to have so much success so 583 00:27:13,988 --> 00:27:17,348 Speaker 1: fast in such an incredible town like Buffalo. But if 584 00:27:17,348 --> 00:27:19,268 Speaker 1: you look at what's going on, they are putting so 585 00:27:19,388 --> 00:27:22,348 Speaker 1: much on him. He's taking so much on his shoulders. 586 00:27:22,468 --> 00:27:25,388 Speaker 1: He's responsible for eighty six percent of the points that 587 00:27:25,468 --> 00:27:29,628 Speaker 1: Buffalo has scored this year, and sometimes all of that weight, 588 00:27:29,828 --> 00:27:33,548 Speaker 1: all of that success, all of that everything that comes 589 00:27:33,548 --> 00:27:36,148 Speaker 1: with that can be both a burden and a curse. 590 00:27:36,508 --> 00:27:38,348 Speaker 1: So I think you have to spend some time listen 591 00:27:38,428 --> 00:27:40,188 Speaker 1: to him, help him through this. Again, this is a 592 00:27:40,188 --> 00:27:43,828 Speaker 1: young quarterback. He's a superstar. He'll be fine. I think 593 00:27:43,828 --> 00:27:45,548 Speaker 1: they just need to help him work through some of 594 00:27:45,548 --> 00:27:49,388 Speaker 1: this stuff and maybe take a little off his plate. Well, 595 00:27:49,428 --> 00:27:51,068 Speaker 1: you can say the same about the Packers, Scott. On 596 00:27:51,108 --> 00:27:53,268 Speaker 1: the first half of the season, the Packers fans were 597 00:27:53,268 --> 00:27:55,668 Speaker 1: disappointed in rookie white Out Christian Watson, who in his 598 00:27:55,708 --> 00:27:58,668 Speaker 1: own way became one of the most important players in 599 00:27:58,708 --> 00:28:01,148 Speaker 1: the league just because what he represented to Aaron Rodgers 600 00:28:01,148 --> 00:28:02,988 Speaker 1: and we discussed as many other people ahead of the 601 00:28:03,028 --> 00:28:05,428 Speaker 1: trade deadline, the team and make a move to pick 602 00:28:05,468 --> 00:28:07,388 Speaker 1: up a wide receiver, and you heard they were trying to, 603 00:28:07,468 --> 00:28:10,268 Speaker 1: but they didn't. Then Sunday poof the rookie white Out 604 00:28:10,268 --> 00:28:13,148 Speaker 1: goes for three touchdowns on four catches. So, Scott, when 605 00:28:13,188 --> 00:28:15,948 Speaker 1: a player that you draft struggles and that you need 606 00:28:15,988 --> 00:28:19,228 Speaker 1: to perform struggles And then finally breaks out how they 607 00:28:19,228 --> 00:28:23,508 Speaker 1: feeling in the Packers front office yesterday. Well, first of all, Kyle, 608 00:28:23,588 --> 00:28:26,068 Speaker 1: you can't get too down on a rookie player as 609 00:28:26,148 --> 00:28:29,468 Speaker 1: he's learning, as he's developing, and we're starting to see 610 00:28:29,548 --> 00:28:32,028 Speaker 1: him develop possibly now. The other thing is that you 611 00:28:32,148 --> 00:28:34,628 Speaker 1: can't get too high because he had a terrific game. 612 00:28:34,988 --> 00:28:37,428 Speaker 1: He's probably somewhere in the middle of those things where 613 00:28:37,468 --> 00:28:39,948 Speaker 1: he's not as bad as he started. He's not as 614 00:28:40,028 --> 00:28:42,508 Speaker 1: great yet as he was the other day. And again 615 00:28:42,548 --> 00:28:44,308 Speaker 1: I go back to some of the things here is 616 00:28:44,628 --> 00:28:46,468 Speaker 1: you want to be positive about it, but you have 617 00:28:46,508 --> 00:28:49,308 Speaker 1: to be cautiously optimistic. One of the reasons we often 618 00:28:49,548 --> 00:28:52,068 Speaker 1: coaches in front office people kind of try to stay 619 00:28:52,148 --> 00:28:55,188 Speaker 1: even is for things like this because if you overreact 620 00:28:55,228 --> 00:28:57,308 Speaker 1: to this, you're going to get a player that learns 621 00:28:57,348 --> 00:28:59,748 Speaker 1: the roller coaster, and that's not what you want. The 622 00:28:59,788 --> 00:29:02,468 Speaker 1: other thing is, I know Parcels used to say this 623 00:29:02,588 --> 00:29:04,588 Speaker 1: not going to the team and all the players and 624 00:29:04,628 --> 00:29:06,548 Speaker 1: team meetings, but he used to say it to the coaches. 625 00:29:06,828 --> 00:29:08,668 Speaker 1: When a young player has a great game like this, 626 00:29:08,988 --> 00:29:10,668 Speaker 1: he would always say, hey, listen, let's not get the 627 00:29:10,668 --> 00:29:13,668 Speaker 1: guy fitted for a gold jacket yet. And that's the truth, 628 00:29:13,748 --> 00:29:16,508 Speaker 1: I would be cautiously optimistic, but it's good to see 629 00:29:16,508 --> 00:29:19,228 Speaker 1: a young player starting to have things click for him. 630 00:29:20,468 --> 00:29:23,188 Speaker 1: Scott and out of Dallas, we saw Cowboys head coach 631 00:29:23,228 --> 00:29:25,948 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's show his frustration against the former team. He 632 00:29:25,948 --> 00:29:28,388 Speaker 1: had the headset and it was in slow motion because 633 00:29:28,388 --> 00:29:32,388 Speaker 1: they did spike the headset. You could see the frustration 634 00:29:32,428 --> 00:29:35,468 Speaker 1: he wanted to beat his former team. How painful is 635 00:29:35,508 --> 00:29:37,268 Speaker 1: it when you want to beat your former team, your 636 00:29:37,428 --> 00:29:41,748 Speaker 1: your friend in Aaron Rodgers, and then you don't do it? 637 00:29:41,788 --> 00:29:46,468 Speaker 1: How you can? You can just see it in his face, right, yeah, jeezy, 638 00:29:46,748 --> 00:29:48,668 Speaker 1: you can? And you know it's always one of those 639 00:29:48,708 --> 00:29:52,188 Speaker 1: tough balances because every game needs to be the same. 640 00:29:52,348 --> 00:29:54,348 Speaker 1: You don't want it to be personal because it's not 641 00:29:54,428 --> 00:29:56,428 Speaker 1: about you. You want to win the game because your 642 00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:59,108 Speaker 1: team needs to win the game. Back in the deep 643 00:29:59,188 --> 00:30:01,868 Speaker 1: dark recesses of your mind, you are thinking about folks. 644 00:30:01,908 --> 00:30:04,748 Speaker 1: On the other side, you are thinking about the franchise 645 00:30:04,828 --> 00:30:06,988 Speaker 1: that you were once a part of. So it does 646 00:30:07,068 --> 00:30:09,548 Speaker 1: become personal, but that can't be the primary focus during 647 00:30:09,548 --> 00:30:12,188 Speaker 1: the week, and it can't be the primary focus during 648 00:30:12,228 --> 00:30:15,148 Speaker 1: the game because it'll get you distracted. You know, I 649 00:30:15,188 --> 00:30:18,588 Speaker 1: can certainly relate to those feelings. Happened on a much 650 00:30:18,628 --> 00:30:20,708 Speaker 1: bigger stage for me. But when I was the assistant 651 00:30:20,708 --> 00:30:24,348 Speaker 1: gim at the Atlanta Falcons, unfortunately, I was going back 652 00:30:24,388 --> 00:30:27,068 Speaker 1: to you. We were playing against Bill and Brady and 653 00:30:27,108 --> 00:30:30,348 Speaker 1: the Crafts and the Belichick boys who I had known 654 00:30:30,428 --> 00:30:33,188 Speaker 1: since they were kids, and Matthew Slater and all these people. 655 00:30:33,788 --> 00:30:35,548 Speaker 1: And sure enough, that was a big game that I 656 00:30:35,588 --> 00:30:39,428 Speaker 1: wanted to win. That was secondary, But afterwards, it's certainly 657 00:30:39,548 --> 00:30:42,108 Speaker 1: very humbling and very disappointing when you put it into 658 00:30:42,108 --> 00:30:46,828 Speaker 1: that context. For sure. Yeah, emotions run big in this game, 659 00:30:46,908 --> 00:30:50,268 Speaker 1: and we saw Derek Carr emotional at the ponium after 660 00:30:50,308 --> 00:30:53,148 Speaker 1: the Raider's loss to the Colt and Sanezo. He was 661 00:30:53,188 --> 00:30:56,588 Speaker 1: possibly calling out his teammates and their effort and what 662 00:30:56,668 --> 00:30:59,548 Speaker 1: they're doing preparation wise. Scott, what do you think about 663 00:30:59,588 --> 00:31:01,268 Speaker 1: that on and off the field stuff and how it 664 00:31:01,348 --> 00:31:06,508 Speaker 1: all were especially coming from your quarterback and leader. Yeah, Jason, 665 00:31:06,588 --> 00:31:08,508 Speaker 1: this is one of those things where there was a 666 00:31:08,548 --> 00:31:11,508 Speaker 1: part of me that appreciated it and respected it and 667 00:31:11,588 --> 00:31:13,988 Speaker 1: liked it. The fact that he was that passionate and 668 00:31:14,068 --> 00:31:16,908 Speaker 1: that he was maybe calling people out. But I think 669 00:31:16,908 --> 00:31:19,788 Speaker 1: he maybe started to get a little bit personalized. You know, 670 00:31:20,188 --> 00:31:24,828 Speaker 1: that can become very very complicated when your words unintentionally 671 00:31:24,988 --> 00:31:27,788 Speaker 1: sound like you're calling out an individual and maybe putting 672 00:31:27,828 --> 00:31:31,988 Speaker 1: individual's names on it. Because I think, as with a quarterback, 673 00:31:32,268 --> 00:31:34,828 Speaker 1: I think what would be important this week is that 674 00:31:34,908 --> 00:31:37,148 Speaker 1: the head coach and the general manager spend a little 675 00:31:37,188 --> 00:31:39,748 Speaker 1: time with him, tell them how much they appreciate it. 676 00:31:40,108 --> 00:31:41,948 Speaker 1: But one of the things I learned as a leader 677 00:31:41,948 --> 00:31:44,508 Speaker 1: that I made a mistake on the times is sometimes 678 00:31:44,548 --> 00:31:48,548 Speaker 1: when you're a leader, you forget that the way you 679 00:31:48,668 --> 00:31:52,228 Speaker 1: say things and say the intentions that you have when 680 00:31:52,228 --> 00:31:56,268 Speaker 1: you say certain things aren't necessarily always received the way 681 00:31:56,308 --> 00:31:58,228 Speaker 1: that you believe that they're going to be and that 682 00:31:58,708 --> 00:32:01,988 Speaker 1: you feel that they should be. Other people's feelings are hurt. 683 00:32:02,108 --> 00:32:04,908 Speaker 1: They may hear that in a context that's completely different 684 00:32:04,948 --> 00:32:07,708 Speaker 1: than what Carr put out there. So to me, I 685 00:32:07,708 --> 00:32:10,068 Speaker 1: think this is something he has to be very very 686 00:32:10,148 --> 00:32:12,988 Speaker 1: careful about. I appreciate it. I respect it because I 687 00:32:13,108 --> 00:32:15,428 Speaker 1: love the player, I love his work ethic, I love 688 00:32:15,468 --> 00:32:17,868 Speaker 1: who he is and what he stands for. But these 689 00:32:17,908 --> 00:32:20,268 Speaker 1: are very treacherous waters. He has to make sure that 690 00:32:20,348 --> 00:32:23,788 Speaker 1: his teammates understand the intent in which he was calling 691 00:32:23,828 --> 00:32:27,788 Speaker 1: people out. Yeah, it's gonna be tricky and obviously you 692 00:32:27,828 --> 00:32:29,548 Speaker 1: know some of the folks and the coaching staff in 693 00:32:29,588 --> 00:32:31,468 Speaker 1: the front office from your New England ties. That's going 694 00:32:31,508 --> 00:32:33,228 Speaker 1: to be really interesting to watch Vegas over the next 695 00:32:33,228 --> 00:32:37,188 Speaker 1: few weeks. Scott, great stuff. As always, We appreciate you. 696 00:32:37,188 --> 00:32:40,828 Speaker 1: You're the men. Thanks everyone, have a great week.
