Why do 24 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: we keep coming back to this game? And I remember 25 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: the extra point that was missed in the first half 26 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: when the Giants were up thirteen nothing, and the announcers 27 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: always that that could come back to get to bite them, 28 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: and they missed another one in the fourth quarter. Turns 29 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: out it did come back, in fact to bite them. 30 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: The Denver Broncos score thirty three points in the fourth 31 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: quarter win the game thirty three thirty two. There's a 32 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: lot Let's let's get to some of the voices of 33 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: some of the key players in this thing. Here's Brian Daboll, 34 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: head coached the Giants on what he said to his 35 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: team after the loss. Yeah, tough loss. Put your heart 36 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: and stroll into it. So not a lot of talking 37 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: that needs to be done when you lose a game 38 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: like that. Everybody gave everything they had. 39 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: They should yell change the direction at the end there, Yeah, yeah. 40 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 1: No, nothing ended there. We lost the game. 41 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: I was upsetting. 42 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 3: We're going to have a. 43 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: Shame in that moment it was directed. 44 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: No, we lost the game. Here's Jackson Dart, his starting quarterback, 45 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: on the loss. 46 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 4: I think for right now, it's just it's really frustrating, man. 47 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 3: I'm trying to put it all together. We had chances 48 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: to win the game, didn't do it. 49 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 4: It's frustrating. 50 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: I never felt like we were gonna lose the game. 51 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 3: So, you know, I looked at the clock when they scored, 52 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: I said, Dame, we got a lot of time left. 53 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 3: I had. I had no doubt that we were gonna 54 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: go down there and score. 55 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: Here's Bo Nicks, the victorious quarterback, on the fourth quarter. 56 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: They put up thirty three in the fourth quarter. 57 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 4: We just saved all our good ones for the fourth quarter, 58 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: and you know, they've just they worked. We just kept 59 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: running them and you know, we found some momentum and 60 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 4: our defense found some stops, got a huge turnover, and 61 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, we just got some life back 62 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 4: that we could win the game. And so we you know, 63 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 4: kept playing until we won the game. 64 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: Crazy stuff. You know, I think one of the things 65 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: that I can use my other job to to relate 66 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: in sports. And you know, we played Oakland University our 67 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: last game of the regular season great camps, the coach. 68 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: Everybody remembers Oakland because they just beat Kentucky the year before, 69 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: and we're up fourteen with like five and a half 70 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: minutes to go, lost the game in overtime and had 71 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: had time chance to win it. We were similarly up 72 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: fourteen against Youngstown State, which was actually better than Oakland, 73 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: and lost it. I think the thing, there's a bunch 74 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 1: of things one young teams. It's hard to teach him 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: how to win, you know, they sometimes you have to 76 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: what do we always say, feel the pain before you 77 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: taste the champagne. And learning how to win is a hard, 78 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: hard skill to teach. And closing out games is not 79 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: something that all people, especially when you're at a new 80 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: high level, know how to do. And Jackson Dart is 81 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: a little bit reckless, so the fact that he did 82 00:04:52,480 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: throw a big interception shouldn't be a huge surprise. But 83 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: what I found, and I think the Giants already showed 84 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: this with how well they played, especially defensively and a 85 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: little bit offensively in the first half, there is carry 86 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: over game to game. You know, they look like a confident, 87 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: confident bunch in the first half against the Denver Broncos, 88 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,119 Speaker 1: and I think that's carrying over the confidence from playing 89 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles. Now think about where they are today, 90 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: and my guess is, well, it doesn't mean it will 91 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: last the whole game. In their next game, it's going 92 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: to be about half of a game where they lack 93 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: confidence because no matter how big the lead they could get, 94 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: it's surmountable, because it was just surmounted yesterday. Bayer, when 95 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: you're hosting the show with Carrie and it's Sunday afternoon 96 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: and you have the screens up, at what point in 97 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: time did you go, hey, we might have something going 98 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: on here in Denver. 99 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 5: Well, we had something going on when it was thirteen 100 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 5: to nothing and Denver couldn't do anything with the football. 101 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 5: Then when it was nineteen nothing at the end of 102 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 5: the third quarter, you're like, okay, probably over with but 103 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 5: we'll keep our eye on it. So Denver scores. They 104 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 5: score early in the fourth quarter, and then the Broncos 105 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 5: are excuse me, the Giants are on offense and there's 106 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 5: a play where the ball goes through Wandale Robinson's hands 107 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 5: and then ends up in the hands of Theo Johnson. 108 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 5: Two Broncos defenders collide and Johnson goes into the end 109 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 5: zone and it's twenty six to eight, and you say 110 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 5: to yourself, there it is. That's how you know it's 111 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 5: the Giants day. So at that point, when it's twenty 112 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,799 Speaker 5: six to eight, with like ten minutes left in the game, 113 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 5: you're saying to yourself, all right, well this is this 114 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 5: is probably probably over. And then all of a sudden, 115 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 5: Denver comes down, even though they score Doug even though 116 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 5: they score in their next possession. I mean there's a 117 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 5: point where right before they scored their touchdown, there was 118 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 5: five point fifteen left to go in the game and 119 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 5: it's twenty six to eight in favor of the Giants. 120 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 5: So then Denver scores on that next play, and then 121 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 5: you're like twenty six to sixteen, but still Denver really 122 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 5: hadn't done tons on offense except for those previous two drives. 123 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 5: Then Dart throws the bad interception. By the way, you're 124 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 5: hearing a lot of praise on Jackson Dart's numbers today. 125 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 5: Jackson Dart through the bad interception. He missed two opportunities 126 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 5: on wide open plays where it open, yes, the game 127 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 5: ended the game. And then the only reason that he 128 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 5: got to score on the one yard run, which by 129 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 5: the way, would have been better if he was probably 130 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 5: down at the inch yard line. They could have worked 131 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 5: the clock and then had three chances to get it 132 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 5: in from a half yard out. I know it's not 133 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 5: a guarantee. I know you say you got to score 134 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 5: in that situation, but they had a timeout, they had 135 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 5: a lot of control down four, but the only reason 136 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 5: that they go down there was because of an awful 137 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 5: pass interference call. He did make a great play on 138 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 5: fourth and nineteen, but that was even aided by an 139 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 5: awful roughing the passer call. And I was sitting next 140 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 5: to Carry Roads through all this, and then they showed 141 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 5: one of the Giants defensive players on the oxygen and 142 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 5: Carrie's like, that's a real thing. Sure, So the Giants 143 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 5: defense didn't have anything left, so that allowed then Denver 144 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,559 Speaker 5: to have all the success that they had, And even 145 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 5: with that, it was shocking on how it turned out. 146 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: Well, it's funny you point out the altitude because the 147 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: one time we played in Colorado when I was at 148 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, we'd lost. We had twenty point lead a half, 149 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: and you know, between the officiating and the and the altitude, 150 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: it got to US. I agree with Carrie, that is 151 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: an absolute real thing. And I'd be interested to know 152 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: when Brian Dable when they arrived in Denver, because they 153 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 1: tell you arrive as late as possible because if you're 154 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: not used to it, your blood doesn't have enough oxygenation, 155 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: and the longer you're there you don't actually adjust, it 156 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: gets worse than you get oxygen poisoning. So it had 157 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: all the check marks of a team that's gonna lose 158 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: a gigantic and seemingly insurmountable lead. Right. You have a 159 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: young quarterback who also is aggressive to maybe the point 160 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: of being reckless. You have altitude, you have a coach 161 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: who's won a Super Bowl before and is like a 162 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: PROFESSORI open doing it forever. All these situations done in BURNEU. 163 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: And then you have one team that won that was 164 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: in the playoffs last year, another team that lost that 165 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: had the big lead, that had a terrible year last year. 166 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: So there's a little bit of a a you know, 167 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: culture of winning and culture of losing. One that has 168 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: been established as a culture of winning was the Denver Broncos. 169 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: It was a perfect storm, perfect storm. And then you 170 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: have the two missed extra points, which also obviously ate 171 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: it and helped generate it, and and you know, left 172 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: left the door open. So there's a bunch of different 173 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: parts to it. In all the things we had this weekend, 174 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: you know, between Miami going down, Vanderbilt getting a gigantic win, 175 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: you know, you go throughout the NFL, and and and 176 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: and green Bay surviving. Remember Green Bay was stuck on 177 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: the tarmac in in Green Bay for like five hours 178 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: the night before the game, day before the game. There's 179 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: all kinds of craziness that took place between Friday Saturday. 180 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: I didn't show Hayes unbelievable night right baseball, which we 181 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: have a game seven tonight between the Blue Jays. All 182 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: of those things, and whether it's the train wreck that 183 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: was the Giants with the lead giving it up, or 184 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: the comeback for the Denver Broncos, whatever side you're on, 185 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: that's all anybody can think about. That's all anybody can remember. 186 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: And this is like Christian Jaffrey had a great night 187 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: last night. Nobody cares. It's because thirty three points in 188 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, Jackson darts aggressiveness and the reward for 189 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: having young players, but then the misses in the fourth 190 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: quarter all of that makes hit the story of the weekend. 191 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 5: I could give you a little insight as well, because 192 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 5: you have a game going on in Glendale, Arizona, where 193 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 5: the Cardinals make a questionable call on a fourth down 194 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 5: play with six minutes to go, give the ball back 195 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 5: to Green Bay. Matt Lafleur says, we're going to kick 196 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 5: a field goal. Now we'll go nonstead, We're gonna go 197 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 5: for it on fourth down, down three with a couple 198 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 5: of minutes left in the game. They score, then Jacoby 199 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 5: Resetts bringing his team down the field. All of that 200 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 5: overshadowed by the craziness of the Broncos game. And it's 201 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 5: funny because you hear the cuts and you hear people 202 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 5: asking the two missed extra points are absolute killers. They 203 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 5: change everything. But to sit there and absolve everybody else 204 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 5: of any wrongdoing, one one person just had to make 205 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 5: one more play. Sure in that scenario, Yeah, yeah, it's 206 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 5: the Giants were about to be in the playoff picture. Yeah, 207 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 5: right at three and four. They would have been on 208 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 5: the graphic on Fox, would have been all the way 209 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 5: to the right, that would have been in the hunt. 210 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 5: But they would have been in the hunt seven weeks 211 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 5: into the season, which would have been absurd. 212 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: It's the Doug Gotlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. 213 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: We had so many things to get to, but I 214 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: just it's so unique that you and Carrie were watching 215 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: this happen and Uh, I'm sitting there going like why 216 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: they keep coming back to this game on red Zone? 217 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: This game's over over, Turn it off, don't put it 218 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: on to watch the Jets can't do it. 219 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Doug 220 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 2: Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on 221 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 222 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: It's the Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. 223 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: It's our chance to catch up with a good friend 224 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: and a great friend of the program as well. He's 225 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: time to LESCo, former general manager of the La Chargers 226 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: for eleven years and of course last year the Las 227 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders, and he joins us here on The Doug 228 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: Gottlieb Show. Let's actually start with the Broncos comeback or 229 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: the Giants collapse. And again I'm I don't know your 230 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: level of PTSD. It's different because yours was the playoffs, 231 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: but you know obviously what happened in Jacksonville a couple 232 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: of years ago. In many ways has to has to 233 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what it feels like when what's your 234 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: what's it feel like to watch that happen to the Giants? 235 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 3: Number one, it's it feels awful, especially if you're a 236 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 3: GM or coach or player that's been in that situation before. 237 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 3: Because the Giants is such a great job billing the 238 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 3: lead in the first three quarters, played really well on 239 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 3: both sides of the ball, and the Broncos the last 240 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 3: couple of weeks in the fourth quarter they've actually had 241 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 3: some issues just with with situational football, and it was 242 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 3: the complete opposite yesterday. I mean, Sean Payton did a 243 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 3: great job with that part of the game plan. He 244 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 3: knew in the fourth quarter we only have so many 245 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 3: possessions left. But obviously anytime there's that big of a comeback, 246 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 3: it really it goes both ways. Broncos have to make 247 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 3: a lot of players on offense and then defensively with 248 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 3: the Giants, there's going to have to be some breakdowns 249 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 3: that are going to happen, and that's what the that's 250 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 3: what happened yesterday. To me. The Giants defense that was 251 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 3: supposed to be one of the strengths of their team, 252 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: and that just has not played out the way I 253 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 3: had anticipated. The good news if you're a Giants fan 254 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 3: is this is Jackson Dark and camp Scandabo kind of 255 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: doing this on their own. They don't have a lot 256 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 3: on offense. The defensive line has really been shaky the 257 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 3: last couple of years. Obviously the league neighbors is out, 258 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 3: but when it came to the fourth quarter, once bow 259 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: Nicks got going, they started using him much more as 260 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 3: a runner. He's a very athletic runner, and he's strong, 261 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 3: and it has good sides, but there also has to 262 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: be some breakdow on defense. That happened too, But there's 263 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 3: just no worse feeling, especially if you're the away team 264 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: and you can feel that crowd started to come on, 265 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 3: the momentum starts building, and you get that feeling sometimes, 266 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 3: especially where the Giants have been because they don't have 267 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 3: a great record, that something bad is going to happen 268 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: to us. And it did. It happened in the fourth quarter. 269 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 3: Jackson Dart played a great game through a bad pick. 270 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 3: It's going to happen, but it's just a total breakdown 271 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 3: really on the defensive side. Of the ball for that 272 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 3: to happen. 273 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: Let's go with Jackson Dart real quick now that you've 274 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: seen him, and again we know it takes like a year, right. 275 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: You got to see how they adjust to you, and 276 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: can your quarterback adjust to the to the adjustment and 277 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: how they handle the ups, how they handles it down. 278 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: But so far, how sustainable do you think his level 279 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: of success is considering his talent and aptitude. 280 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 3: Well, it's certainly sustainable. He just has to learn and 281 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 3: you'll continue to learn how to protect himself because the 282 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 3: style of play is it's a great and which you 283 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: know as part of being a leader is to put 284 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 3: people on your back and say, look, I'm gonna take 285 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: this over, which he does from time to time. But 286 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 3: he can put himself in some tough situations. But look, 287 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 3: he can play. There is no doubt in my mind. 288 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 3: The Broncos have one of the best defenses in the league. 289 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 3: He puts up thirty two on the Broncos. Eagles have 290 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 3: a very good defense. He puts up thirty four on 291 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 3: the Eagles and he's doing this without a lot around him. Yet, 292 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 3: I mean, THEO Johnson is a really good tight end. 293 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 3: He's not a big name. He's a good player for them, 294 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 3: but they don't have a lot of receiver. They hat 295 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 3: Scati Boat, which is a great tone setter for them. 296 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 3: As a running back, the offensive linstill needs a lot 297 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 3: of work. So he's doing this without a lot around him. 298 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 3: So I think it's a positive. I think he's a 299 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 3: dynamic player and he's going to get nothing from better 300 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 3: moving forward. 301 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: What's your reaction to Indy? 302 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: They're better than I anticipated, and when you really look 303 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 3: at it, because now we have a really good stample 304 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 3: side what they are. First of all, it's Shane Stike 305 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 3: and Daniel Jones. We're a perfect match for each other. 306 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 3: They just they're both passionate guys about the quarterback position 307 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 3: and all those those details and nuances that go into it, 308 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 3: and that has to be a relationship. That's a twenty 309 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 3: four to seven relationship between usually your coordinator and the quarterback. 310 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 3: In this instance it's the head coach. So it's a 311 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 3: great match with those two and look at how they 312 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 3: play it. I don't like to compare prior teams where 313 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 3: that coach came from and try, hey, we're going to 314 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 3: do the offensive same way. And I know Shane came 315 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 3: from Philly, but there are a lot of similarities with 316 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 3: what he's doing with the Colts. Jonathan Taylor is he's 317 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 3: basically say Von Barkley, very similar in style, size, speed, 318 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 3: dynamic play, making a space, can catch the ball. They 319 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 3: have a tight end and Tyler Warren and the Eagles 320 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 3: have always had a tight ends that can run a catch. 321 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 3: The Colts offensive line is excellent, you know, probably not 322 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: quite as good as the peak Eagles offensive line, but 323 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 3: pretty close. They have a very athletic center and Taylor 324 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 3: Taylor Bordolini, who's a really good player, and the offensive 325 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: line haven't got enough credit for what they're doing as 326 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 3: far as protecting the quarterback. They're running the ball well. 327 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: Pittman and Alex Pearce could make plays on the outside. 328 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 3: So the biggest thing is Daniel Jones. He's limiting his sacks, 329 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 3: he's limiting fumbles, he's limiting interceptions, and that had been 330 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 3: the issue for him, especially later with the Giants, but 331 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 3: it actually going all the way all the way back 332 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 3: to college as far as making the key big airs, 333 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: and he's not. He's playing very efficient football, kind of 334 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 3: the way Jalen Hurts does when he's playing well. He's 335 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 3: not turning it over. He can make plays here or there, 336 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 3: and the offense is doing outstanding. 337 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Trader. That's the 338 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: voice of Tom Telesco, former general manager of the LA Chargers, 339 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: who's joining us. Let's go back to Thursday because we 340 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: we hadn't we? You and I haven't talked on air. 341 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: We actually haven't talked off air about it as well. 342 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: You know, that was a stunnard to me because of 343 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: how much time Joe Flacco had to throw the football right, 344 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: Like the Pittsburgh defense didn't stop the run and didn't 345 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: really get to Joe Flacke. What's going on with that 346 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: with the front seven? 347 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 3: Hard to say, because that's the strength of the Pittsburgh 348 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 3: team and it's been the strength of the team for 349 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 3: god knows how long, and it's supposed to be. The 350 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 3: strength is getting to the quarterback. Andy's offensive line has 351 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 3: struggled this year, but we didn't see that Thursday night. 352 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 3: I mean, Joe was basically untouched for most of the game, 353 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 3: played really clean game, high percentage passer, made some big 354 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 3: plays down the field. I think it helps, Like you 355 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 3: talk about team with weapons mean, they've got Jamar Chase 356 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 3: and Key Higgins and Eu VOTs from from Princeton who's 357 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 3: a you know, not a big name player, but but 358 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 3: a really good receiver for them in that third third role. 359 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 3: And Chase Brown was a player that I felt like 360 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: he could have a big year as a runner. He's 361 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 3: got outstanding speed and it helped with them getting the 362 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 3: lead a little bit on Pittsburgh. We have a chance 363 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 3: to run the ball better. But it is a stunner 364 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 3: that Pittsburgh just didn't get to the quarterback the way 365 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 3: they usually do and that that's the strength of their team. 366 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: That would be the way to shut down Sincantty is 367 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 3: to get to Joe Flacko because you know where he's 368 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 3: gonna be at all time. And it just didn't play 369 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 3: out that way. But it was, uh, it was fun 370 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 3: to watch Joe sit back there and really just use 371 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 3: the weapons that he has and you know, not try 372 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 3: and do too much. But it was really you know, 373 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: it was a fun game to watch. 374 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: And listen, you're not a hyperbolegue guy, but you've you know, 375 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: your time with the Chargers, you've seen the best of 376 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: the best. You go back to your time with with 377 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: the Colts when you guys had Marvin Harrison. So you've 378 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: seen Jamar am I crazy saying like, I don't know, 379 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase is he's the best wide receiver going and 380 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: I think you have to start having legit conversations about 381 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 1: the actual top of the heap. My Mike going crazy 382 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: about a guy who's performing well but a shortened career 383 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: and compared to it to a Jerry Rice. I just 384 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: I feel like he's he's the best player on the 385 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: field and and everybody knows it, and there's not a 386 00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: ton you can do about it. And if you put 387 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: three on him, well that's how they open it up 388 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: for t Higgins. For a guy who's historically been around 389 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 1: this league. What do you see when you see Jamar. 390 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 3: Chase, Well, it's the same thing you're seeing. You see 391 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 3: all those traits as a receiver. He has pretty good size, 392 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 3: His athletic ability and quickness and body control and explosiveness 393 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 3: is so high level. And then he add in just 394 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 3: straight line speed, which he has as well, so he 395 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: has all the physical attributes you need to have. And 396 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: then he has that one thing you can't teach, which 397 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 3: is just the instincts to play the position. The instincts 398 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 3: is the field to get open, and then the instincts 399 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 3: and the balls in the air to be able to 400 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: adjust in the timing of it in the finished catches. 401 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 3: And that's a game where we knew where the ball 402 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 3: was going. Still, even on the half t Higgins to 403 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 3: throw to. Jamar Chase had over twenty targets in the game, 404 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 3: So Pittsburgh knows where the ball's going. They have some 405 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 3: pretty good corners, but Joey Porter is he's a big 406 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 3: corner with long arms, but he follows a lot. And 407 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase is a tough receiver to play unless you're gonna, 408 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 3: you know, brack them every down. But you really can't 409 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,719 Speaker 3: do that with the other weapons that the Benkals have. 410 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 3: But when you look at just pure talent level, yeah, 411 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: he's gonna if he keeps on this pace, you know, 412 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 3: he's gonna be up with those top receivers. 413 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's he's a phenomenal, phenomenal for all player. 414 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: Tom Telesco is our guest here on the Doug Gottlieb 415 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: Show on Fox Sports Radio. My thing on Justin Fields 416 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: was how many teams have to tell you he's not 417 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 1: not good enough. Now he didn't injury's ankle, But it's like, 418 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: what what what's your feeling? You've made highers before, right, 419 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: at what point do you go it's the coach? At 420 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: what point do you go? We're not giving the coach 421 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: a fairy shot because the quarterback, what's the read seven 422 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: games in on a winless season with the Jets. 423 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 3: Well, you touched on a little bit there with just 424 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 3: the Fields and then his other stops, and there's enough 425 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 3: talent on this offense that the results should be better 426 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 3: than what they are. They have Derrick Wilson, they have 427 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 3: bris Hall, Mason Taylor was a second round pick, a 428 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 3: tight end who's really calentled that's got two number one 429 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 3: takes a full tackle spots. So when Justin Fields comes in, 430 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 3: I mean you're paying him twenty million dollars a year 431 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 3: to come in and be the starter without a lot 432 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 3: of competition from either another free agent or maybe a 433 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 3: draft pick, and basically a prior body of work. He 434 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 3: hasn't been a consistent starter yet in his last two stops, 435 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: so he's in his fifth year. He still needs development, 436 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 3: and there's a lot of things I like about him, 437 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 3: but he's a dynamic athlete. He has a strong arm, 438 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 3: he's got great leadership skills. But and this is a 439 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 3: big butt his ability to process in the pocket, make 440 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 3: decisive throws and decisions, anticipate and wins in the pocket. 441 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 3: It has to come to fruition in five years with 442 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: two different teams. So if you have a first time 443 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 3: head coach with a defensive background at first time coordinator, 444 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 3: the problem is is, you know, can we develop this better? 445 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 3: Because the Bears a deeals the coaches couldn't. So you 446 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 3: bring him in and Tyrod Taylor and they signed up 447 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 3: more to be the backup to Justin fields where I 448 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 3: think they probably had to bring in somebody else to 449 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 3: compete with Justin because you just hadn't shown that body 450 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 3: at work yet. You hired a head coach, you put 451 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 3: all this work into it. You have to get in time. 452 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 3: He does have some resources there already. I think Joe 453 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 3: Douglas left him some pretty good players. But it's been 454 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 3: a quarterback position right now. That's just killing them and 455 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 3: they can't move the football and they can't score. 456 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: No, no, it's it's it's it's bad. This is the 457 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: Doug Gottlieb Show. Here on Fox Sports, rader Tom Telesco 458 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 1: is our guest. When Brian Schottenneimer was hired, it was 459 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: wild widely panned and they're not great. But man, I Tommy, 460 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: I gotta give Jerry Jones credit. His whole thing was, 461 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: Dak likes this offense, Dak likes Brian Schottenneimer, and Dak's 462 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: my best player. And if Dak's happy, we're going to 463 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: be pretty good. The defense isn't great, right, it's not 464 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: even maybe eveny good, but they're fun to watch and 465 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: Dak is having an incredible season, Like this feels like 466 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: one where some people need to held Jerry Jones, he 467 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: got it right. 468 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 3: Look, historically, they've drafted pretty well there, they've done well 469 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: in freegency where they were dabbling freeency. They don't really 470 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 3: go after, you know, big price players, so they're very 471 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 3: patient in that regard. I've always respected how how they've 472 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 3: built their team because it is mostly through the draft. 473 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 3: They'll both try and you know, draft, develop and resign. 474 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 3: And you know, like this year this offseason, like they 475 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 3: signed Javonte Williams running back. He's not a big, big 476 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 3: money back, but they saw the skills they had in college. 477 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 3: They saw the skills they had with the Broncos street 478 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 3: knee injury, they took a chance on him and he's 479 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 3: having an outstanding year. He's running very similar the way 480 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 3: he did in North Carolina as far as he gets 481 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 3: a ton of yards after contact, and he had over 482 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 3: one hundred yards yesterday. Dak Prescott has always been a 483 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: very talented, efficient quarterback when he's healthy, and he's completely 484 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 3: healthy right now. You got Cede Lamb back, They've got 485 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 3: George Pickens, Jake Ferguson was an excellent draft pick, a 486 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: tight end. They have a lot of pieces of offense 487 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 3: at Cavante Turpin, who's who's a nice just as pure speed, 488 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 3: get down the field and even you know stretch people 489 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 3: even laterally with them and their round So they have 490 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 3: a lot of pieces there. And now it's just about 491 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 3: can we get enough stops on defense and that that's 492 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 3: that's been the issue early in the year. They got 493 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 3: enough yesterday against the Commanders, So you hope you can 494 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 3: keep building on that defense moving forward, because I think 495 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 3: and I think most people have said this even from 496 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 3: week one, the Cowboys are going to score. They were 497 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 3: even scoring when C. D. Lamb was out, so they're 498 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 3: going to move the ball, they're going to score. Great 499 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: credit to Brian Schottenheimer with what he's doing with the offense. 500 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 3: Just got to figure a way to get the more stops. 501 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 3: But you know, they're at three to three and one 502 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 3: right now and moving forward. 503 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: How do you explain Trevor Lawrence's career. 504 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: It's just been so inconsistent. There's so much physical talent 505 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 3: there as a passer, as an athlete, as a runner. 506 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 3: It's just been so up and down, and it's been 507 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 3: a lot of it's just been those those key big airs, 508 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 3: that interception at the wrong time, the strip flumbles the 509 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 3: wrong time. But don't forget and I know nobody wants 510 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 3: to hear about patience, but it is a new head coach, 511 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 3: it's a new offensive Liam Cohen. Things do take some time. 512 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 3: So they did some good things earlier in the year, 513 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 3: but it's going to take some time as we moved 514 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 3: through this with with the new head coach, slash coordinator 515 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 3: and quarterback. There's talent there. He just got to keep 516 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 3: working together on it. But yeah, it's just been I 517 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 3: don't want to say disappointing, because that's not that's not 518 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 3: quite the right word. But it's just been so inconsistent 519 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 3: because the highs have been really high and the lows 520 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 3: have been really low, and the somehow trying even those out. 521 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: You famously drafted Justin Herbert. Of course you didn't have that. 522 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: You didn't have a choice there where you could draft 523 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: threat draft Tua, who went right before you drafted Justin Herbert. 524 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: But when you watch where their careers are going, Tua 525 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:56,719 Speaker 1: obviously massive struggle yesterday against Cleveland, And you know, Herbert 526 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: didn't have his best day, but he's he's why regard 527 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: as at least a top ten quarterback now kind of 528 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 1: looking back, what's your reaction to the disparities, And look, 529 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: you couldn't plan on to his injuries, but he was 530 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: injured a lot in college. Like one of the things 531 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 1: that people missed on him wasn't just a hip Like 532 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 1: he got hurt every year in college and usually got 533 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: hurt when he was trying to run away from people 534 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: and they caught him. They catch in college, they're going 535 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: to catch you in the pro. But what do you 536 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: think now, you know six years later, six seasons later, 537 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: where Herbert is a top ten guy and Tua is 538 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: going to be struggling to hold onto his job. 539 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've talked about this before that in college in 540 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 3: the draft process. Yes, his durability and injury history, that 541 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 3: was a pretty big deal. The hip injury was a 542 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 3: significant injury that you know, we didn't know one hundred 543 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 3: percent that it would come back to one hundred percent. 544 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 3: Now it did, which is great, But he also had 545 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 3: a lot of other injuries and a lot of us 546 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 3: like you said, like he's a by NFL standards, he's 547 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 3: probably an average athlete. And when you're going to you know, 548 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 3: try and escape and move. I mean, the athletes of 549 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 3: the speed at this lever are so much faster. You 550 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 3: get caught, you can get hurt. So and we've seen 551 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 3: that now his play right now, like you're watching yesterday, 552 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 3: it's just like a total lack of confidence right now. 553 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 3: We've seen him play at a higher level, and we've 554 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 3: seen him play a higher level in that offense, but 555 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 3: right now it just seems like it's just a it's 556 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 3: a snowball running downhill and it's just turning and turning, 557 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: turning and get bigger and bigger. But with you know 558 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 3: what justin what you're looking at is and he saw 559 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 3: this yesterday with a couple of the plays. He's such 560 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: a big, fast and physical player that even when there's 561 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 3: pressure on him, he has the speed to get out 562 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 3: of the pocket and go pick up a chunk of yards. 563 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 3: Or he can take his left armor and just stiff 564 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 3: armor deep defensive lineman to the ground to give us 565 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 3: some extra time to make a throw. And if you're 566 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 3: going to play this position over the long term, and 567 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 3: if you're drafting a quarterback you're hoping for ten plus 568 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 3: years as your franchise quarterback, if you hit on it, 569 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,239 Speaker 3: you're not going to have a proper offensive line every year. 570 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: You're not going to have a perfect offense every year. 571 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 3: So you're gonna have to make a lot of plays 572 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 3: on your own. And then yesterday, watching Tua throw the 573 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 3: ball in Cleveland where it's wet and it's windy, two, 574 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: it just doesn't have that elite arm strength to pierce 575 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 3: the ball through the winds of coming off Lake Erie. 576 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 3: And I think justin in that situation, a little bit 577 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 3: bigger arm, just the way same way Jim Kelly had 578 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 3: an arm perfectly for playing in Buffalo, New York. Big 579 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 3: strong can throw the ball through the winds. So to 580 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 3: yesterday it's a tough situation for him. He's a rhythm passer, 581 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 3: he's accurate, arbustrength is kind of average and it hurts 582 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 3: you playing the element. So but yeah, there are two 583 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 3: different styles of quarterbacks. But I do think to if 584 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 3: you get back in the right situation, can be productive 585 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 3: in this league. Right now, just team wise, it just 586 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 3: seems like team white. It's the confidence that's just really dying. 587 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: It's a mess. It's a mess. Tell me is the 588 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: best man.

That 608 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 5: we've got a game seven tonight in Toronto. 609 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: It's a really big deal. I mentioned this on our 610 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: group chat. I think it's a weird thing that when 611 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: they played in Seattle, it's like half like half Toronto fans. 612 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: And I get that Seattle is close to Canada, but 613 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: that's Vancouver, British Columbia. That's the other side of the 614 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: Canadian Earth. Like is Canada that united as a country 615 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: that they cheer for all the only Canadian baseball team. 616 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: I would think for you, Canada, you're better than us. 617 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 5: We don't do that big deal, little deal or no deal. 618 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 5: That Mike McDaniel is sticking with two a tongue of 619 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 5: ilois is starting quarterback for week eight. 620 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: Little deal. I don't think he is a choice. I mean, 621 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: quittin yours not the answer, right, And they're paying them 622 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: a bunch of money. He's got, he's got a ride 623 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: or die with Tua. The reason he has the job 624 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: is because of Tua. Right, yes, Okay, so that's why 625 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: you got the job. That's why you keep the job. 626 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: Fix him if you want to keep your job. 627 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 5: The other interesting portion of that was that Zack Wilson 628 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 5: was demoted and Quinn Yours was the backup yesterday and 629 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 5: Yours actually took a couple of snaps in that game 630 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 5: against the Browns. But there is Zach Wilson in Miami, 631 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 5: all right, Doug, big deal, little deal and no deal. 632 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 5: That the Colts cruise to pass the Chargers on Sunday. 633 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: It felt like a big deal. Like, I know, the 634 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: Chargers are all banged up and they've lost three of 635 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: their last four, but I mean they were just better. 636 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: I'll also tell you this, I think they're really well coached. 637 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: There's part of their execution which like, ooh with it. 638 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 1: They know what they're doing. Not a perfect team, but 639 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,239 Speaker 1: I mean Jonathan Taylor just changes them. What a what 640 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: a player he is when he's healthy, and their line 641 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: is really good. Yeah, I think it's a big deal 642 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: because you know, look, it's very normal to doubt a 643 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: quarterback who you know, just lost his job in New York. 644 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: It's very normal to doubt the Colts when they've been 645 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: bouncing around with this Antheiny Richardson deal. It's very normal 646 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: to doubt teams that were last place and or they 647 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: were second to last place or a third place in 648 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: your division. But and you think they're playing a soft schedule. 649 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: And again I'm not saying the Chargers are great, clear 650 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: they're not. I know they're not healthy, But it was 651 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: the thoroughness which which they were the better football team. 652 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: They were the better football team, and they were really 653 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: well coached yesterday. 654 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 5: Big deal, little or no deal that Florida State says 655 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 5: they will wait until after the season to evaluate head 656 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 5: football coach Mike norval. 657 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: I think it's a big deal, and I think it's 658 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: the right deal. I mean, they lost to Stanford obviously 659 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: this weekend, and it's a hard one because two years 660 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: ago they're undefeated, they lose their quarterback and they don't 661 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: get in the College for All playoff, and then last 662 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: year they have a disaster of a year. This year 663 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: start out hot and after the Virginia game, it's just 664 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: gone to hell. In a handbasket, gives him a chance 665 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: to see what he can do, gives them a chance 666 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: to kind of see the landscape. And oh yeah, by 667 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 1: the way, if you fire him, you lose your whole team. 668 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: I think it's actually a pretty smart thing to do, 669 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: even if they still want to move on from Norvelt. 670 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 5: All right, big deal, little deal or no deal that 671 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 5: Texas Tech has now had to ask their fans to 672 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 5: stop throwing tortillas at football games, a tradition since the 673 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 5: nineteen nineties. 674 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: It's no deal. Tortilla Tech is as s Taco Tech 675 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: has been a thing since I you mean since I 676 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: was in school, before us in school. It's kind of 677 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: their thing. It's kind of taken on a life its own. 678 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 5: I think it's That's what's a shame about it is 679 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 5: that everybody else wanted to ban it in the Big twelve. 680 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 5: And now now the Red Raiders who are upset this 681 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 5: past weekend and are also banged up, now they they 682 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 5: lose that tradition, all right, Doug, big deal, A little 683 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 5: deal or no deal?

It's a real question. 692 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: Is he hurt or is the injured? 693 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 5: I think he's hurting.
