Adam Kaplan, our Fox Sports Radio NFL Insider, 15 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 3: is going to be joining us. We'll talk a little 16 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 3: bit about that very forgettable Cowboy victory on Thursday night. 17 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 2: Get ready for a big Sunday. 18 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 3: We got a lot of college football going on right now, 19 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 3: and again the key game of the day, the big 20 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 3: game of the day, Number two Georgia, number four Alabama. 21 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,959 Speaker 3: That game will be kicking off in little more than 22 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 3: an hour. Looking forward to that battle Dan in Tuscaloosa. So, 23 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: once again, Monci here we are trying to figure out 24 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 3: exactly what makes the show and what doesn't make the 25 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 3: show today. 26 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 4: I know, especially on a daylight today again, I have 27 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 4: no dogfight when it comes to college football, and yet. 28 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 5: I can't wait to watch the game. Leader. I just 29 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 5: can't wait to sit down and watch it. 30 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 4: And that's probably the cool part about it is, I 31 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 4: really I'm not gonna be affected by it, So I'm 32 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 4: thoroughly going to enjoy it, while I know everyone else 33 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 4: maybe thoroughly. Well. 34 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 3: What's interesting about this rivalry, obviously, is that Kirby Smart 35 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 3: has elevated Georgia to where Alabama was all until that 36 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: SEC Championship game and that miracle fourth down play that 37 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 3: Jalen Milroe delivered to give Nick Saban one last SEC championship. 38 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: Bottom line was Nick Saban owned his former assistant had 39 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 3: to head only once the Georgia beat Alabama. That was 40 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 3: in the SEC Championship a few years ago. They got 41 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 3: the revenge from the regular season went on to win 42 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 3: a national championship. So a lot of people are saying, 43 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 3: all right, well, now that Nick Saban's gone, now Kirby 44 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: Smart can can take control of this rivalry, and I 45 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: counter with his games in Tuscaloosa until Georgia can prove 46 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 3: they can beat Alabama in a regular season game. I 47 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: would tend to lead with Alabama, especially at home. 48 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 5: I mean, call me crazy too. I feel like the 49 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 5: same way, Alabama is Alabama until they're not. 50 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 4: And I guess nobody has told us that they're not 51 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 4: Alabama at home. 52 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 5: I also think they can pull it off. 53 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 4: Everyone does put Kirby Smart as the best now football 54 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 4: coach because everyone else has retired and left the game. 55 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 5: But he's still he has to beat Alabama today. 56 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: Well, remember this about Kalin Deborah of course, left the 57 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 3: University of Washington to take over the Alabama job. His 58 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: career coaching record head coaching record is one oh seven 59 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: and twelve. 60 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: I'm sorry what one o seven and twelve? 61 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: Now, granted this includes a five year old at Sue 62 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: falls In the NAIA won three NAIA championships where they 63 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 3: were sixty seven and three, but he was also twenty 64 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 3: five and three at two years at Washington. 65 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 5: That's pretty good. 66 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is pretty good. So I mean. 67 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 3: Again, I want to pause for a second. I've been 68 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: watching a lot of college football. By the way, we're 69 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 3: going to get into that controversial ending of the game 70 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: last night between the University of Miami and Virginia Tech. 71 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 5: Controversial. 72 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a very interesting decision at the end 73 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 3: of that game. But I'm watching a lot of college 74 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 3: football these days, and I'm like, right now, the number 75 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: one team in the country, Texas, arch Manning a quarterback. 76 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 3: Right now, they're playing a woeful Mississippi State team at home. 77 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 3: It's fourteen to six. Yeah in Texas at halftime. I mean, 78 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: I don't know what the line in this game was, 79 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: but it probably was four touchdowns, if not more. Arch 80 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 3: Manning's fine, fifteen nineteen, two hundred two yards in a score. 81 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: They're not running the ball well. In other words, Texas 82 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 3: doesn't look like some juggernaut. And that's almost across the board. 83 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: It's ironic in a year where we're going to have 84 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 3: this expanded playoff in college football that there is no 85 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 3: clearcut number one team. I mean, Texas is good, obviously, Georgia, Alabama, 86 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: Ohio State. He run down the list. Look, Mississippi came 87 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 3: in the into today rank sixth in the country. They 88 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: lose at home to Kentucky. 89 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? 90 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:33,799 Speaker 5: Yeah? 91 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: That one. 92 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 5: I couldn't believe. I had to do a double take. 93 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 4: If I'm reading this correctly, Texas was thirty eight and 94 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 4: a half point underdogs. 95 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: You mean favorites. 96 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, sorry, favorites. I'm sorry, I apologize favorites. 97 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: Yes, eight and a half points, they're up by eight 98 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: at half time. 99 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 5: I'm sorry. 100 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: That seems yeah. 101 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 3: So, I mean, it's just going to show that when 102 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 3: we finally do get to this playoff, wherever schools are 103 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 3: going to be there, it is going to be wide open. 104 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: There is just no. 105 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 3: Clearcut favorite, which again gets to this matchup between Alabama 106 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: and Georgia with the expanded playoff. You know, unless they 107 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: have some unexpected, you know, lapses down the road, this 108 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: game will do little to decide the future of either 109 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 3: one of these schools. The loser, most likely he is 110 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 3: still in the mix, and the winner doesn't really separate 111 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: themselves from the rest of the pack. I've also been 112 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 3: very interested in watching some of the schools that are 113 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 3: moving into these new conferences, especially these former Pac twelve 114 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 3: schools moving into the Big Ten. Right now, USC at 115 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 3: home against a mediocre Wisconsin team and Wisconsin is still 116 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 3: winning this game as he trying to come back in 117 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 3: this game, but Wisconsin still leading this game twenty one 118 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: to seventeen, and you just have to understand there's such 119 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 3: a mix this year. We said this this entire I 120 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: cannot wait for this college football season. When last year ended, 121 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 3: Monci I told everybody, take a snapshot. 122 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: Because you're watching college. 123 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: Football by and large the way it's been for one 124 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 3: hundred years in terms of regional rivalries and the makeup 125 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: of these conferences, and that all ends in twenty twenty four. 126 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: So I got it. 127 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 3: You know, I do some you know, guest appearances on 128 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: other shows and they're like, you. 129 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 2: Know, what are you seeing? I said, I don't know 130 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,799 Speaker 2: what to expect this year in college football. 131 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 3: This is we've hit the reset start on college football 132 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 3: and this season is just going to be. 133 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 2: What it ends up being. That's it. 134 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's impossible to really predict. 135 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 4: Like right now, Wisconsin, Yeah, beating SC twenty one to seventeen. 136 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 3: This is not a great Wisconsin tine. No, it's funny. 137 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: They've had some muff punts in this I think they haven't. 138 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 3: How often do they see blue skies as you approach October? 139 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: You know, they're looking up at those southern California blue 140 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 3: skies right now and they're like, where's the ball? I 141 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 3: can't even see it. It's so blinding here. Not the 142 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 3: way that these Big Ten schools are you to having 143 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,119 Speaker 3: their weather. But on the flip side, once they host 144 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:08,119 Speaker 3: some of these schools, especially when the weather turns midwest rough, 145 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: we're going to see some very challenged West Coast schools 146 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: as they enter into Big ten territory. 147 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 4: Of course, we don't have weather here. No, they're not 148 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 4: going to handle that well, not at all. You can't 149 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 4: replicate that. 150 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: Can I interrupt for a couple of seconds here early on, 151 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 3: because we're going to get into a lot of NFL. 152 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 3: But I feel with monseiy and I our show has 153 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 3: evolved into the football season, but we are covering some 154 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 3: other sports today, and one is the end of the 155 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 3: year for Caitlin Clark. So her Fever team got eliminated 156 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 3: in the playoffs, no surprise there. She played badly in 157 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: the first game. She played much better in the second game, 158 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 3: but they are two and out and then they're done. 159 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 3: They talked about the increase attendance in the WNBA. I 160 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: love how they talked about that without giving you specifics 161 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 3: about where those games increased in attendance. If you take 162 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 3: her out, there's no increase in attendance or TV ratings 163 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: or general interest in the WNBA. And again I'm gonna 164 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: arguing with Asia Wilson being the Most Valuable Player, she's 165 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 3: the best player in the league. Kaylen Clark, I think 166 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: rightfully based on what she did on the court, finished 167 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 3: fourth in the MVP voting. But I wanted to get 168 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: your thoughts on just this whole Caitlin Clark phenomenon that 169 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 3: extended throughout this year, you know, through the college basketball season, 170 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 3: you know, her being some people felt snubbed for an 171 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: opportunity to play in the Olympics, and her rookie season 172 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: the WNBA. What kind of impact do you think she 173 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 3: really has had. 174 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 4: I mean, she is the phenomenon that I think everyone expected. 175 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 4: So I think that conversation. Guys, it's been proven her 176 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 4: season is over, but the numbers don't lie, the attention 177 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 4: doesn't lie. And whether it was good or bad attention, 178 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 4: everybody was talking about the WNBA left and right, so 179 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 4: something that that league was not used to, which is 180 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 4: why there's a lot of still controversy when it comes 181 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 4: to the attention that was brought to the WNBA. 182 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 5: But in reality, it's. 183 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 4: Like when you are big like this, you get negative 184 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 4: and positive attention and they just weren't used to it, 185 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 4: but in reality, she delivered exactly the way I thought. 186 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 5: Some people didn't think that she was gonna move the needle. 187 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 5: She moved the needle. We can there's no there's no 188 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 5: more discussion about that. She moved the needle. 189 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 4: The w NBA is a topic of conversation. With or 190 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 4: without her, you are going to talk about the WNBA. 191 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: So it's like, I think it's pretty great. 192 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 4: And yeah, she was snubbed by the Olympic team, but 193 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 4: you know what, it was good for her. 194 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 5: Well, it was good for her. 195 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 3: And again you know Diana Tarrossi announcing her retirement, you know, 196 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 3: after when her six gold medal in twenty years on 197 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: the WNBA. But the fact that they actually remained on 198 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 3: the radar even after the nflc and started, it's crazy. 199 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: Even if it was you know, you know, NFL is 200 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 3: king college football's right there. 201 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 2: I mean, we got the baseball playoffs are going to 202 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 2: get to By the way, I want to mention Shoho 203 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: Tani for a second hand, we have to. 204 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 3: Okay, you know, we we were talking fifty to fifty. 205 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even where's this. 206 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: Going to end. 207 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 3: I mean, by the way he broke Etro Suzuki's record 208 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 3: for most stolen base from a Japanese player in Major 209 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 3: League Baseball. Suzuki more associated with stealing bases than Shohei 210 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 3: o Tani, but that's where he is with his fifty 211 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 3: seventh stolen base. By the way, us he has just 212 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 3: taken a lead on touchdown penning the extra point twenty 213 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 3: three to twenty one Trojans right now, minute half to 214 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: go in the third quarter of that game. 215 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: On top of the home. 216 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 3: Runs, and by the way, he actually has an outside 217 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 3: shot of winning the triple Crown, which by the way, 218 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: no National League player has done since nineteen thirty seven. 219 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: He leaves the league at home runs and runs battered 220 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: in and Louise a Rise of the Podres is sitting 221 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 3: now that the Padres have secured the four seed in 222 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 3: the playoffs. He'll set out these last couple of games 223 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 3: against Arizona unless, unless so, he suddenly goes four for four. 224 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 3: He had four hits last. If he does it again, 225 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 3: he might take the lead in the batting race. 226 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 5: Okay, so Louise Arise. 227 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 4: His batting average is three fourteen otanis is three on nine. 228 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's real close. 229 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 5: It's real close. 230 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 4: But yeah, you think that if Otani has a chance 231 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 4: to take it to. 232 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 3: Play, Oh absolutely, I mean again, it would take a lot. 233 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 3: And when you're this late in the seedson that many 234 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 3: of bats, it does tell it takes. 235 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: It would take a four for four day for him 236 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: to like to make a dent. 237 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 3: To make a dent, whereas all of a sudden he 238 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 3: can but say, oh he can't. 239 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 4: That's what's crazy. You do anything there's actually a chance. 240 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 4: And the best part not even any more offensively. 241 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 5: What he's doing. You know what I like about Joey Donny. 242 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 4: He actually showed emotion. When the Dodgers are so stoic 243 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 4: it gets annoying. It's nice to see someone care. 244 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: Well. 245 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 3: He cares because he's going to be in the postseason 246 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: for the first time in a seven year major league career. 247 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 3: So even though it's an annual event for these Dodgers, 248 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 3: they've been there, done that every single year, for him, 249 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 3: it matters.

Adam, I will say this about my 274 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: prognostication skills. 275 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: Over these many, many. 276 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: Years, I have an uncanny ability to take a winner 277 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 3: and make them into an immediate loser. 278 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 2: Oh team or team? 279 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to give you two teams right now, 280 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 3: and I want to ask you if either one of 281 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 3: these teams is fixable. Two teams that I both picked 282 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: to win their divisions this year are both sitting at 283 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 3: zero to three. 284 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: That would be Jacksonville and Cincinnati. 285 00:13:59,320 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 6: Jacksonville. 286 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,479 Speaker 2: So I did pick the Jaguars. 287 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: I thought after their rough finish last year that they 288 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 3: would rebound this year. Doug Peterson is a Super Bowl 289 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 3: winning coach, and Trevor Lawrence got the new deal. Let's 290 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 3: start with the Jags right now, and then I want 291 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 3: to get to the Bengals. Well, let's start with the Jags. 292 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 3: They're on the road against the Texans this week. It 293 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 3: was just ugly that last game, as bad as it's 294 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: been all season. Are they fixable or is this the 295 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 3: end of the road for Doug Peterson? And what exactly 296 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 3: do you foresee in the future for Trevor Lawrence. 297 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, he's on the number one hot seat on if 298 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 7: we were ranking them, which coach has got to win 299 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 7: to save his job? It would be Peterson, much as expected, 300 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 7: not winning division, but getting back respectability. Remember, they lost 301 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 7: their final five out of six games last season. They're 302 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 7: on the road against it. Obviously, the Texans who shocked 303 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 7: the world last year, kind of like the Jaguars did 304 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 7: two years ago. And the problem now is they extended 305 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 7: Trevor Lawrence's contract. The owner Shot Cohn went on the 306 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 7: records saying that the coaches have to do a better 307 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 7: job of developing developing their players while the roster is 308 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 7: taking a step back, and that's not going to look 309 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 7: good for Doug Peterson specifically for the offense, it's been dreadful, awful. 310 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 7: They won't have any Evan Ingram who got hurt in 311 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 7: pregame warmps two weeks ago with a hamshury injury. 312 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: Uh. 313 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 7: Darnell Savage they signed as a free agent, will play 314 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 7: at safety. 315 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 3: Uh. 316 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 7: They're down. They have two out of the three top 317 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 7: inside backers are out. Their best corner Campbell's on IR 318 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 7: so they got they have injury concerns. They played really badly. 319 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 7: I don't feel I just don't, and I know behind 320 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 7: the scenes there's been a disconnect with their offense. They 321 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 7: people are not on the same page. It looks bad. 322 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 7: I mean, it's it's fair to bring it up, but 323 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 7: I mean it looks bad. They've they've It's interesting where 324 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 7: Doug Peterson comes on to that white that that on 325 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 7: that white horse two years ago and after the Overen 326 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 7: Myer experience, Steve, and it was just I mean, he 327 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 7: was the guy who saved it. I remember, I remember 328 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 7: being there. They breath of fresh air. You have no 329 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 7: idea how much this means to us with Doug's positivity. 330 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 7: Then they choke. Doug's forced to fire a lot of coaches. 331 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 7: He saved Press Taylor, the much maligne offensive coordinator, his guy. 332 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 7: He brought her from Philly. Who's who's the offensive coordinator? 333 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 7: And Press I'm told to still call in the plays. 334 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 7: But they've got a brand new defense. It's not working well. 335 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 7: Ryan Nielson, it's pretty good. How about Doug Peterson calling 336 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 7: out Ryan Nielson a couple of weeks ago? That was bad, Steve. 337 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 7: So to answer your question as we go forward here, 338 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 7: I don't feel there's a lot of hope. I usually 339 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 7: don't say that this early. It's rare that I feel 340 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 7: that way. But the vibes are not good coming out 341 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 7: of Jacksonville. 342 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 3: All right, So let's fall up with the Bengals right now. 343 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 3: I not only picked the Bengals to win their division. 344 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 3: I had Joe Burrows the league's MVP. And by the way, 345 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 3: his passer ratings one hundred and two. Yeah, badly but 346 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 3: not terrible. But that defense has been a wolf. Are 347 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 3: they fixable? Can the Bengals do something that rarely happens, 348 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 3: and that's Riley from an O three start to make 349 00:16:59,200 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 3: the postseason? 350 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 7: Then that, by the way, it's less than ten percent 351 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 7: that make it from nineteen ninety that start zero to 352 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 7: three to make the post season, they got to win 353 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 7: the Andy Dalton revenge Ball. They have to win this one. 354 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 7: And it's what I'm deeming. I love fighting this stuff. 355 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 7: So you know, they're on the road here at Carolina. 356 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 7: They've been bad at home. Sometimes they're talking to coaches guys. 357 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 7: Sometimes you could get you could galvanize a team just 358 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 7: getting on the road, getting together and feeling a sense 359 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 7: of togetherness. Look, they have the stuff with Jamar Chase 360 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 7: week one, which was clearly a distraction against the Patriots, 361 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 7: where they were terrible. They don't score ten points. But 362 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 7: the thing is they're kind of they're relatively healthy on offense. 363 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 7: But they just lost Trent Brown, one of their offensive 364 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 7: tackles for the season with a really bad knee injury. 365 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 7: So that that's concerning. So yeah, now, I look, are 366 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 7: they going to make the playoffs? 367 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: Know? 368 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 7: Because the Steelers are better than we thought. They still 369 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 7: have to play the Steelers. They got to play the 370 00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 7: Ravens twice, they got to play the Eagles. It's it's 371 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 7: going to be tough. No, I don't see them turning around. 372 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 8: Now. 373 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 7: Could there be eight or nine win team, Yeah, but 374 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 7: that's not going to get to you in the playoffs. 375 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 2: Ouch. 376 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 4: I also had the Bengals going to the playoffs, Adam, 377 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 4: let's talk about the forty nine ers the Trumps specific. No, well, 378 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,679 Speaker 4: not even the banged up situation that they have. But 379 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 4: Brandon Ayuk, he gets his one hundred and twenty million 380 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 4: dollar extension and then he shows up in the wrong 381 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 4: pair of shorts and I know it's just a pair 382 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 4: of shorts, but then throws a bit of a tantrum. 383 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, the Ayuk and so am I reporting on this. 384 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 7: So in the situation with Ayuk and Shanty and going 385 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 7: back some years, so I'm gonna say it was his 386 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 7: second year twenty twenty one where he got off to 387 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 7: really bad start and he didn't have a good training camp, 388 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 7: and my understanding was that Kas Shanahan during their bye week, 389 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 7: they he got together and he got through to AYUK. 390 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 7: They had a meeting of the minds and what they 391 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 7: felt was I would not come in with a passion 392 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 7: for his job and the energy and they're building because 393 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 7: you know, if very talented. And then in that second 394 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 7: half of that season, after the bye he became, he 395 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 7: was better and then twenty two is phenomenal. Where As 396 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 7: one of their coaches told me he was still in 397 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 7: their staff. When I was in training camp that summer 398 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 7: two years ago, the guy goes to you know, I said, wow, 399 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 7: I was tearing updated he goes, Dude, he does this 400 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 7: every day. We can't stop him. So obviously this guy's 401 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 7: and this coach is on defensive side of the football, so 402 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 7: I don't I'm not reading it too much now. He 403 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 7: has not really done much so far. To be honest 404 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 7: with me, Deemo Siemo's got. 405 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: This calf injury. 406 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 7: We know about McCaffrey, who won't be back till late 407 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 7: in the season, if he does return at all. They're 408 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 7: trying to figure this Achilles ten and ice issue out. 409 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 7: They're gonna get George Kittle back. This week. They lost 410 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 7: Javon Hargrave, who has been really good as a big 411 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 7: phrasing signe from Eagles, making over twenty million season. He's 412 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 7: lost for the season regular season at least. So they 413 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 7: have injury issues that I think it's fair Monty to 414 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 7: bring this up with Ayuk and Shanahan. They've had their 415 00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 7: issues before. It's something worth monitoring because and how about 416 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 7: Juwan Jennings last Yeah, that was incredible, So it's somethinghere 417 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 7: going to monitor. I'm not overly concerned about him, but 418 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 7: knowing that they've had a history, it's fair game. 419 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: The team that meet the forty nine ers in the 420 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, the Chiefs. I have a stat for you 421 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 3: in their last eight regular season games, Patrick Mahomes has 422 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 3: eleven touchdown passes and nine interceptions in his last eight 423 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 3: regular season games. Those are very ordinary numbers for an 424 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 3: extraordinary quarterback. They're on the road against the Chargers. I say, 425 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 3: on the road, it's all Chiefs fans at SOFI. I've 426 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 3: been to a Chiefs Chargers game at SOFI. It'll be 427 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 3: all Chiefs fans. But is something missing right now? I mean, 428 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 3: there's a lot of noise obviously about Kelsey and that 429 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 3: he's not getting as many looks as he has in 430 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: the past. But again, last eight regular season games, Mahomes 431 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: eleven touchdown passes, nine interceptions. 432 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 7: Well, here's the couple of things. He doesn't have Isaiah Pachecko, 433 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 7: So the run game. I know Carson Steel, the imjre 434 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 7: after free agent, did a good job last week, but 435 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 7: he doesn't have Pachuck's explosiveness. They don't have that going 436 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 7: for them. They're not gonna have Hollywood Brown, at least 437 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 7: for the regular seasons. So he's never even played for them. 438 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 7: He had a decent training camp before he got hurt. 439 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 7: They're off and what any Reid. By the way, what 440 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 7: I'm told is any read over the year when Mahomes struggles, 441 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 7: he generally Mahomes will run around and not get rid 442 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 7: of the football. He all change up his offense will 443 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 7: force now you mentioned ironically Kelsey, He'll force Mahomes to 444 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 7: get rid of the football quickly and not overthink and 445 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 7: not try to be spectacular in Superman, and it usually works. 446 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 7: That's what they're going to have to do. They're very 447 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 7: lucky to be three no and their defense has bailed 448 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 7: them out. 449 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: It's this weird. 450 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 7: Rachie Rice is a really good player, and he is 451 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 7: the pretty significant off the field issue, which won't be 452 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 7: resolved until it goes through the legal system. But they 453 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 7: got to get other guys involved. Is he every worthy 454 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 7: of their first round pick? Yes, he's explosive, but he's 455 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 7: very limited. He's not a guy's going to run the 456 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 7: whole routree. He needs a lot of war They got 457 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 7: to find another pass target. They've got a lot of 458 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 7: work to do here. This one's fair game. The Chiefs 459 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 7: are just not playing well. Their defense is saving the 460 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 7: day now. The Chargers are banged up, really significantly banged 461 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 7: up on both sides of the football. I'd be very 462 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 7: surprised if this game is close. You never know when 463 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 7: the Chiefs do this though, Steve, they played down to 464 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 7: their opponent way too much. 465 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, Adam, Five undefeated teams, yep. Do any of them 466 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: stay undefeated going into week five? 467 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 7: It's just funny you asked that because I remember talking 468 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 7: to a friend of mine with the Steelers this week 469 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 7: and he goes, what did I tell you about our schedule? 470 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 7: Because I told him they're not going to make the playoffs. 471 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,959 Speaker 7: You know, When I talk to people, they'll go, hey, 472 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 7: what do you think of us this year? You know, 473 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 7: in the nine and eight whatever. So if you guys 474 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 7: will have your typical you'll somehow make the playoffs as 475 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 7: a wildcard. But I don't see it, and I still don't, 476 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,239 Speaker 7: And to be honest with me, I'm not sold them. 477 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 7: Their defense is great, Justin Field's usually implodes and he's 478 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 7: very streaky. The Buffalo game is going to be phenomenal, 479 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 7: and no question about it. So because just because Love 480 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 7: is going to play, and the Packers didn't even add 481 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 7: a quarterback from the PRAC squad, so he's definitely gonna 482 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 7: play tomorrow. I can't wait to see that one. Look 483 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 7: the I believe the O is going to go with 484 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 7: the Vikings. I'm stunned. I totally got that one wrong. 485 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 7: I didn't make it being a playoff team. I don't 486 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 7: think anyone did. I mean, this is pretty incredible what 487 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 7: they're doing. The Seahawks, they've got pretty significant different injuries 488 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 7: on the defensive line. 489 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 2: I didn't see that either. 490 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 7: It's been interesting, folks, with just five undefeated teams after 491 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 7: three weeks. I did not see Seattle and Minnesota being undefeated. 492 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 3: Well, and we only have three winless teams right although 493 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 3: I think Jacksonville will stay that way. 494 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 2: I just don't see it. I'd be stunned. 495 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 7: They want, But the Texans have. 496 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: Not played well this year. They looked awful last week, 497 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 3: they looked awful. 498 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: And who do they be? They'd be what the Colts? Yeah, 499 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 2: you know, I. 500 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 3: Mean it's not like the Texans are not looking great, 501 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 3: but Jacksonville is looking awful. 502 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 7: So let me say this. Brian Flores has got is 503 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 7: right now in the NFL's best defensive coordinator. What he's 504 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 7: doing with not a lot of talent on the back end, 505 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 7: that's great coaching.

I'll tell you one guy that probably has 579 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 3: swept through his underwear.

He is leading this comeback here for 581 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 3: the number thirteen Trojans at home.

But it 616 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 9: looks as if he's gonna go. He's not going to 617 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 9: have one of his offensive linemen, and Joe all doubtful. 618 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 3: One of his offensive linemen.

I mean, 627 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 2: it doesn't make any sense. 628 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 3: You got a couple of wins under your belt, You're okay, 629 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 3: two and one.

I would not risk it at all 663 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 3: against the Chiefs, really, one of the best defenses in 664 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 3: the league. I'm going to throw him out there and 665 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 3: he's not one hundred percent. 666 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 5: But what if he is better than you think he is. 667 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 2: Well, you've got to be able to move. 668 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 3: He's going to be under intense pressure, especially with Joe 669 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 3: Alt even as a rookie. He's your best offensive lineman out. 670 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 2: Of the game. 671 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 5: Now, I hear you, I hear you. 672 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 4: I just really think the Chargers with Justin Herber have 673 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 4: a chance to beat the Chiefs healthy Justin yeah, even 674 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 4: not fully healthy, because the Chiefs have won I think 675 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 4: nine in a row. But if you look at their scores, 676 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 4: they've all been one score games except for one against 677 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 4: the Dolphins. 678 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:06,239 Speaker 2: We brought this up. 679 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 3: I told you if you look at mahomes numbers in 680 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 3: the last eight regular season games, mid eleven touchdowns, nine 681 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: interception mid as. 682 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 5: The kids say, not even. 683 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 3: I mean that is below standard in the National Football League. 684 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 5: That's what he's saying. Yeah, but I just it's frustrating. 685 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 5: I want him to play. 686 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,239 Speaker 4: But what you're saying is very logical, and I am 687 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 4: taking the non logical approach here. 688 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 3: By the way, Texas and Mississippi State. We mentioned it 689 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 3: was fourteen to six at half time, right number one team? 690 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 3: Would you say thirty eight and a half point favorites. 691 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 3: Now we have a minute a half to go in 692 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 3: the third quarter. It is now fourteen to six Texas. 693 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 3: No score in this third quarter? 694 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 5: What isnte McConaughey not there? 695 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. 696 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 3: Arch Manning at quarterback. You look at his numbers, twenty 697 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 3: at twenty five, two hundred and fifty five yards of score, 698 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 3: no picks. 699 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 2: What do we mean here? 700 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 3: Why are they not getting in the end zone against 701 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 3: a one in three Mississippi State team? This is one 702 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 3: of the worst teams in the Southeastern Conference? 703 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: Why so? I mean this is sort of across the board. 704 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 3: You know, we talk about the NFL so early into 705 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,719 Speaker 3: the season and just a handful of undefeated teams, and 706 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 3: then college football no real standouts.

I'll say again, Jim Veppman the Heisman, 785 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 6: Holy Kyle? 786 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 2: Is he an impactful player? Well, that's Mark Johnson from Leirfield. 787 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 3: Well, Travis Hunter is definitely in the mix and gonna 788 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 3: stay there as Colorado more than a two touchdown underdog 789 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 3: today on the road against an undefeated UCF team is 790 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 3: leading and driving again thirty four to twenty one. By 791 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 3: the way, in this game, Travis Hunter has nine catches, 792 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 3: seventy nine yards and a score. He's had at least 793 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 3: one hundred yards receiving in every game so far this year, 794 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 3: playing both ways. So again, what's the award for best 795 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 3: college football player of that year? Travis Hunter is very 796 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 3: much in the mix. He's my number two. Here is 797 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 3: my number one. 798 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: Ward is in the shotgun two yards or paydirt. He takes, 799 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 2: he looks, he throws, don Ward's done it. 800 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 8: Touchdown tuchdown by with runs fifty seven ago of the game. 801 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 2: But RIrA Kanes have their reward. 802 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 3: That's Miami network. And yes, he engineered a big gunback yesterday. 803 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 3: It looked like Miami was in deep trouble and maybe 804 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 3: they should have had a l We'll get to that 805 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 3: in a second. But cam Ward four touchdown passes he 806 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 3: ran for a touchdown on the season, eighteen touchdown passes, 807 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,840 Speaker 3: four picks. He's completing better than seventy percent of his passes. 808 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 3: And more importantly, the Miami Hurricanes are sitting at five 809 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 3: and zero. Now, you watch that last play. 810 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 5: That was brittle. 811 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 3: So I was watching the game live, and you know, 812 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 3: they always say this, what's the call in the field? 813 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 3: Call in the field was Virginia Tech touchdown on the 814 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 3: hail Mary some six seven minutes passes? 815 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 2: They review this play every angle. 816 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 3: There was not a clear, definitive angle, and I believe 817 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 3: rightfully the announcers on the game said, look, unless you 818 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 3: got clear evidence to reverse the call, you got to 819 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 3: stay with the call, which is what I thought they 820 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 3: would do. Instead, they magically reversed the call for the 821 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 3: home team, Miami, which by the way, continues to give 822 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,960 Speaker 3: the ACC undefeated, top ten ranked team in Miami. 823 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 2: Of course, Florida States had a rough year. 824 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 3: It's not been a great start for the ACC, but 825 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 3: they do have one undefeated team still and that's the U. 826 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a tough play to swallow. You always 827 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 4: hear that the refs won't win or lose you the game. 828 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 5: You have to play it. 829 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 4: That one play, though, was really hard to accept because 830 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 4: of the ruling that the player, the other player, the 831 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 4: defensive player, was stepping out of bounds when he also 832 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 4: was touching the ball. That was the determination. Okay, so 833 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,439 Speaker 4: where was the control? Did he have control of the ball? 834 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 3: Oh? 835 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 5: He did. He did have control of the ball. 836 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 2: He came down with both hands on the ball. 837 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 3: As he went down, the ball was knocked out of 838 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 3: his hands, and their ruling was again, is that the 839 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 3: Miami player who had his hands a defender, he was 840 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 3: laying on his back out of bounds, And I'm like, 841 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 3: that has nothing to do with it. The guy that 842 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 3: caught the ball for Virginia Tech had both hands on 843 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 3: the ball, came down and as soon as he came 844 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 3: down with both fet clearly in the end zone. It 845 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 3: doesn't matter if it's then knocked out. 846 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 5: I don't know who made the call, but someone made 847 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 5: a call. 848 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,399 Speaker 3: Well, somebody made a call that allowed my By the way, 849 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 3: I was thinking, do I still have Camward in my 850 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 3: top three? The answers had they lost He still would 851 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 3: have been in my top three, but not number one. 852 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 3: We got a lot of NFL football to get to. 853 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 3: This is Fox Football Saturday, rolling along on another fully 854 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 3: loaded sports Saturday.

This is the last weekend of the 861 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 3: Major League Baseball regular season, but after the horrific Hurricane Helene, 862 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: we have a doubleheader tomorrow they could decide not one, 863 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,959 Speaker 3: but two slots in the postseason for the National League. 864 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,399 Speaker 3: The Mets and the Braves, who had a midweek three 865 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 3: game series scheduled had to postpone two games because of Helen, 866 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 3: and they will play this double header on Monday, and 867 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 3: this could get really interesting. The Padres already clinched that 868 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 3: wild card slot, and then you have the Arizona Diamondbacks 869 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 3: in the mix, and then you have the Mets and 870 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 3: you have the Braves. So yeah, it's that time when 871 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 3: we get to the baseball postseason. Monci and I you know, look, 872 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 3: you know, I know that you're been Dodger person everything else, 873 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 3: and the Dodgers are well, they're always in the playoffs. 874 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 3: That's twelve straight years. Eleven of those years they won 875 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 3: the division title. The one year the Giants had to 876 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 3: win one hundred and seven games to eke out a 877 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 3: division title. But when we talk about postseason baseball versus 878 00:41:55,640 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 3: still early NFL regular season games, you would think that 879 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 3: this is where Major League Baseball could get a little 880 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:11,479 Speaker 3: wedge into the football scene. And what we have seen 881 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 3: over the last many, many years is that no, it's 882 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 3: it's not going to do anything, even when we get 883 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 3: all the way to the World Series. 884 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, the little wedge that it gets is that people 885 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 4: are gonna pay attention to the score. 886 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 5: They're gonna they're gonna check on their phone. They're not 887 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 5: gonna watch the game maybe, but they're gonna check the score. 888 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 3: Do you think Tani being in the postseason for the 889 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 3: first time is gonna get eyeballs? 890 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 5: I'm sure it will, but I don't think it will like. 891 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 4: Move the needle in a way that we like saw 892 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 4: Caitlin Clark do with the w NBA. 893 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 5: I don't think so. 894 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 4: I guess I say, I think it'll be a small 895 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 4: wedge where they're just gonna pay a little bit more 896 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:48,399 Speaker 4: attention to it. 897 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 5: I think we're gonna be checking in, Oh, what is 898 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 5: Adani doing, what's Aaron Judge doing. 899 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 4: I think that's more of the wedge that they get here. 900 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 2: Here's one problem for major ly Baseball. 901 00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 3: So you've had I mean, you could make an argument 902 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,760 Speaker 3: easily on either side who's had a better. 903 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 2: Year Aaron Judg or show Heyo Tom. I mean obviously 904 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 2: the fifty to fifty. 905 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 3: But if you look at Aaron Judges numbers, more home runs, 906 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 3: more RBI's, higher batting average, second percentage over seven. 907 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 2: Hundred stud I mean, these two guys. 908 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 3: The problem is they're on the two most polarizing teams 909 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 3: in baseball, the Dodgers and the Yankees. If you're not 910 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,319 Speaker 3: a Dodger fan, you're a Dodger hater. If you're not 911 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 3: a Yankee fan, you're a Yankee hate ter. So you're 912 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 3: not really picking up neutrals with either one of these teams. 913 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 3: I mean either, Like I said, there's very little neutral 914 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 3: when it comes to the Dodgers and Yankees. It's like, 915 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 3: I don't really you know, well, then you don't follow baseball. 916 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 3: But if you do follow baseball, with both of these teams, 917 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 3: either you are all in or you are all out. 918 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 3: And that's hard to sort of draw in people when 919 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 3: your two stars are on teams like this. 920 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 5: I do not disagree. 921 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 4: In fact, I think the Detroit Tigers are going to 922 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 4: be bringing in these neutrals. 923 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 2: They could not about the Kansas City Royal. 924 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 4: The Kansas City Royals who lost how many last year 925 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 4: one hundred and six or seven? But the Detroit Tiger 926 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 4: is what they've done. It's literally the impossible, you know, 927 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 4: Like they traded some of their best pieces and then 928 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 4: they had a point i think zero two chance to 929 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 4: make the playoffs after the All Star break, and here 930 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 4: they are, like, I think they're the ones that are 931 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 4: going to bring in the neutrals. 932 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 5: But because you're right, you're right. 933 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 3: By the way, I have been saying something repeatedly on 934 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 3: the air over the last several weekends that I was 935 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 3: wrong about and has nothing about predictions, because I'm on 936 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 3: I'm wrong on almost every one of my predictions. What 937 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 3: really bothers me It was a factual thing that I 938 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 3: claimed as a fact that indeed was not a fact. 939 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 3: Oh what so I've been saying this about school the 940 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 3: picture the left hander for the Tigers. 941 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 2: Creek schoobl Tariak Schoobel Schoobol. 942 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 3: And Chris SAOs had this insane coumback season for the 943 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 3: Atlanta Brays. Both of these pitchers are gonna end up 944 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 3: winning the Triple Crown of pitching this year. That's leading 945 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 3: their league in wins, strikeouts in ERA. It's a little 946 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 3: more common than hitting for a Triple Crown, but still 947 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 3: a very rare feat. And I've said repeatedly over the 948 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 3: last several weeks, we've never had a season where both 949 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 3: leagues had a triple Crown winner in pitching. 950 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,280 Speaker 5: And it did happen. 951 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,479 Speaker 2: Not only did it happen, it happened that long ago. 952 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 5: Kershaw was one of them, and Justin. 953 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 3: Verlander for the Tigers, ironically a Tiger that was twenty eleven. 954 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 2: It was the only year. 955 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:38,879 Speaker 3: I mean, Kursse has had many years where he's led 956 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 3: the league in wins or strikeouts at ERA, but he 957 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,840 Speaker 3: only had one year when he did all three and 958 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:45,800 Speaker 3: it was the same year that Verlander did. In the 959 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 3: American League, by the way, Verlinder was MVP in the 960 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 3: American League that year. So yeah, you know you said. 961 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 3: I started as saying, I assume like it had never 962 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 3: happened because it's so rare it would happen in both 963 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 3: leagues in the same year, But in reality it did it. 964 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 5: When you said that, I thought you were wrong, but 965 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 5: you know you're Steve Hartman. 966 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I see that's the problem. 967 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 3: You know, I start believing my own hypes sometimes no 968 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 3: I happened upon and I'm like, I'm going to have 969 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 3: to come clean on that one. 970 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 2: That was wrong. 971 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 3: It doesn't take away from the remarkable achievement for both 972 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 3: these pitchers right now. But I mean you're looking at 973 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 3: unanimous Cy Young Award winners. I dare say unanimous MVPs. 974 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I know they're Bobby with you, you know 975 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,839 Speaker 3: some people, and for a while there Lindor with the 976 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 3: metsun No. Yeah, I mean Aaron, Judge and Shoe Otani 977 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 3: are having I mean unbelievable Yeah, and they wrapped it. 978 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,439 Speaker 5: Up a while ago too, like it hasn't even really 979 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 5: been but even. 980 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 3: Down the stretch, like you remember, Judge had sixteen straight games, 981 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 3: then he had five straight games, I know, with a 982 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 3: home run so good. 983 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, both of them have really been so fun to 984 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 4: watch all season. It's been a it's been a treat. 985 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,839 Speaker 4: But the only one that might not be unanimous, maybe 986 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 4: it's the rocky of the year, especially like in the 987 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 4: last National League. Absolutely, that's the one that may be. 988 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,440 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, the Skeins, yeah yeah, but the major one. 989 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 4: The major Yeah, all wrapped up. 990 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 3: Can I ask a question about show Heyo Tani, because 991 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 3: obviously he is h he's very much in the news 992 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 3: with his historic season that he's had, just crazy year. 993 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 3: Fernando Valenzuela as a twenty year old when he broke 994 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 3: in and had his breakout Fernando Mania year, did not 995 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 3: speak English, and eventually he went from not speaking English 996 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 3: had an interpreter with him at all times, to literally 997 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 3: like speaking English. It took him about four years and 998 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 3: from that point on he spoke English. The reason I'm 999 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 3: asking us show Hao Tani this is his seventh Major 1000 00:47:57,360 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 3: league season. 1001 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 2: I believe that we will ever have Sho Hao Tani. 1002 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 3: I'm sure he understands English and maybe he's not comfortable 1003 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 3: speaking English. But again, when we're talking about marketing a 1004 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 3: player of the magnitude of a show Heo Tani for 1005 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 3: him to come out and speak English, even if it's 1006 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 3: not perfect English, do you think it's a factor. Does 1007 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 3: it matter with it because he can be he's such 1008 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 3: a valuable piece of Major League Baseball right now? Yes, 1009 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 3: And I know some players don't. Vladimir Guerrera, a Hall 1010 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 3: of Fame player, tremendous player, never spoke English, yeaver in 1011 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:38,479 Speaker 3: a sixteen year major league career. 1012 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 2: Never. I'm sure he did. He just never did it 1013 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 2: with the media at all. 1014 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 3: But I wonder do you believe, especially for the Dodge 1015 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 3: organization that has nine more years on their commitment with 1016 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 3: this guy, is that something that's important. 1017 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 5: I don't think so, to be honest with you. 1018 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 4: And it's kind of funny that both MVPs are a 1019 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 4: little bit shy, cause Aaron Judge also it's not does 1020 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 4: not want the attention the way others do. Right, So 1021 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 4: it's funny that they're both that style. I really don't 1022 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 4: think it negatively affects the. 1023 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 5: Dodgers organization because Showhy. 1024 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 4: Does doesn't just talk the talk, he walks the walk, right, 1025 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 4: and he does speak English. 1026 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 5: He speaks English. 1027 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 4: I think it's just more of I think I said 1028 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 4: it to you like a security blanket having the interpreter. 1029 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 5: Interpreter there when it comes to the media. 1030 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 4: But I mean when he showed emotion two games ago, 1031 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 4: our last game, he literally said. 1032 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,760 Speaker 5: F yeah. He knows English. You can read his lips. 1033 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 5: He said, f yeah. He looked at the dugout. He 1034 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 5: speaks English. 1035 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 4: He does he want the attention that maybe the league 1036 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 4: wants him to want? 1037 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:42,920 Speaker 3: No? 1038 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 2: Well, but I mean what did the Dodgers want? 1039 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 5: Doesn't matter. 1040 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 3: You're paying him more money than a player in the 1041 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 3: history of baseball. You're already a great team. I mean, 1042 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 3: if this season falls short of winning a World Series 1043 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 3: and then they're no better off than they were before. 1044 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 3: You know, this is going to be a real test 1045 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 3: for the Dodgers. By the way, there will be the 1046 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: one seed. Yes, they were the one seed last year, 1047 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 3: and how did that work? He lose to a six 1048 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,759 Speaker 3: seed Arizona in the first round of the playoffs. And 1049 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,359 Speaker 3: there's still plenty of questions about the Dodger pitching going 1050 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 3: into the postseason. 1051 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1052 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 3: I mean, like, is he emotional to the fans love him? 1053 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 3: Obviously they do. 1054 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,040 Speaker 2: Does it take it next level? I don't know. 1055 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:27,919 Speaker 5: I think he does take a next level. 1056 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:31,400 Speaker 4: And he does it with his game, not with hosting 1057 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 4: a podcast, not with doing a commercial. 1058 00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 5: He does it by delivering in the middle of the games. 1059 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the Angel suffered with Mike Trout, who 1060 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:48,240 Speaker 3: does speak English only and did nothing over the course 1061 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 3: of his major league career to raise his profile in 1062 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 3: any manner that would have not only maybe helped him 1063 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 3: which he was an interest in obviously, but could have 1064 00:50:58,920 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 3: heldled the Angels. 1065 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just didn't want to do it, and the 1066 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 2: Angels allowed him to be who he was. Yeah, I 1067 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 2: don't know. 1068 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,919 Speaker 3: Baseball just needs that breakouts. That's the one thing that's 1069 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 3: missing for That's why this is what I talk about 1070 00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:17,640 Speaker 3: when the baseball needs something as they go into the postseason, 1071 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 3: right to get a few more eyeballs. And one of 1072 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 3: the ways to get eyeballs is what we just saw 1073 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 3: in the WNBA with Cait mcclark. 1074 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 4: I mean, part of the problem though, is that the 1075 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 4: baseball season is so long. It's hard to want to 1076 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 4: keep your eyeballs on that sport for one hundred and 1077 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 4: sixty two games. 1078 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 3: But October screams postseason baseball. 1079 00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 5: It does, and it's people are going to watch. 1080 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 3: And it's you know, we're still early in the NFL season, right, 1081 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:48,760 Speaker 3: We're still October is a great opportunity because you've got November, December, 1082 00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 3: January for both the pro and college football game. Baseball 1083 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 3: should be able to take advantage of the month of October. 1084 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 4: If the World Series is the Yankees and the Dodgers, 1085 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 4: they will take over, you believe, Yes, it's because of 1086 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 4: the haters. Honestly, it's going to because people want to 1087 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 4: want to watch the Dodgers lose. 1088 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 5: They want to watch the Yankees lose. 1089 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 4: If that is the World Series, it will it will 1090 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 4: move the needle, it will take over all right. 1091 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 2: Well, we'll see how that plays out. 1092 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 3: But I just you know again, it's it is an 1093 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 3: opportunity for Major League Baseball again with two players just 1094 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 3: having superhuman seasons in shohy Otani and Aaron Judge on 1095 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 3: marquee teams, and can Major League Baseball figure out a 1096 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 3: way to wrestle themselves a little more audience going up 1097 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 3: against the football season. By the way, USC after being 1098 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 3: down twenty one to ten at home against Wisconsin, blows 1099 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 3: away Wisconsin by a score of thirty eight to twenty one. 1100 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 3: That game is now over I think Wisconsin just melted 1101 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 3: in the heat of southern California. 1102 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 2: It's what it looked like to me. 1103 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 3: By the way, our thanks to rappid Radios, the official 1104 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 3: communication device of Fox Sports Radio.

They're gonna win today, but 1135 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 3: not by the thirty eight and a half they were 1136 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 3: favored over Mississippi State. Yeah, they're only up by fifteen 1137 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 3: right now. So arch Manning's played well. It will be 1138 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:47,839 Speaker 3: interesting with quinn Ewers, who is hurt still. Do they 1139 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 3: turn the page on quinn Ewers so obviously was a 1140 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:55,880 Speaker 3: Heisman candidate until he went down with his injury, or 1141 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 3: do you say it's the arch Manning era and we're 1142 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,720 Speaker 3: gonna stay with us. This is the team ranked number 1143 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 3: one in the country. 1144 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:08,439 Speaker 4: That's a tough decision. It is do you fix something 1145 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 4: that's not broken? Do you remove something that's. 1146 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 2: Worth quin Yours was not broken, He. 1147 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,800 Speaker 4: Wasn't, but now he's unfortunately hasn't played two weeks in 1148 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 4: a row. 1149 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 2: Do you Okay? 1150 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 3: But if you say, was quinn Ewers playing better than 1151 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 3: arch Manning is right now, I'd say that's certainly arguable. 1152 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 3: But I would say, yeah, with his experience, quin Ewers 1153 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 3: was better than arch. 1154 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 4: Manning, right, And I think the plan was to move 1155 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 4: forward with Quinn Yours for a lot longer than the 1156 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 4: first two weeks, but it didn't happen. So now you're 1157 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 4: presented with the situation that may be uncomfortable to make 1158 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 4: a decision on. 1159 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:43,320 Speaker 3: I'd be rough on quin Yours, who is being projected 1160 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 3: as a possible first round picking the NFL coming up 1161 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:46,239 Speaker 3: next year. 1162 00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 5: I assume they go back to quin Yours. 1163 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 2: I assume all right. 1164 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,400 Speaker 3: Well, speaking of quarterback controversies, how do you think it's 1165 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 3: going to play out with the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers Right now? 1166 00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 3: You could make the argument that Justin Fields has been well, 1167 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 3: I'll put it this way, he hasn't lost a game 1168 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,719 Speaker 3: for the Steelers. The question as hetty, has he won 1169 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 3: a game for the Steelers. This is a defense that 1170 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 3: is as good, if not the best defense right now 1171 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,839 Speaker 3: in the NFL. They just seem to completely shut down 1172 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 3: our opponents, and you have to make a decision. You 1173 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 3: can say, well, you know they're winning, so why make 1174 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 3: a change. But can he actually win you a game 1175 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 3: when inevitably the Steelers defense doesn't have that really good 1176 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 3: day at the office. 1177 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 5: I think they're still figuring that out. 1178 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 2: Yes, you know what I mean. 1179 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 4: Luckily for them though, they're playing the Colts next and 1180 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 4: I think they're going to stand defeated at least another week. 1181 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:48,960 Speaker 2: You do, I do? 1182 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 5: I do? 1183 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 4: Justin Fields may have not won them in the game, 1184 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 4: but he hasn't made mistakes to cost him the game. 1185 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 4: And whether you want to look at him as a 1186 00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 4: game manager or not, he is managing the game well 1187 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,879 Speaker 4: for a good defensive Mike Tomlinson team. 1188 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 5: I don't know, if you I don't. I would not 1189 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:12,720 Speaker 5: remove him for Russell Wilson not I don't think I would. 1190 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 3: It's world Okay, Well, let's say they lose this game 1191 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 3: against the Colts. And he doesn't play loud, and let's 1192 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 3: just say he plays okay, But I mean, let's I mean, 1193 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 3: the Colts do have one of the better offensive lines 1194 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 3: in the league. Maybe they can semi neutralize that defensive 1195 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 3: front of the Steelers. If Jonathan Taylor gets off, that 1196 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 3: obviously makes things a little bit easier for Anthony Richards. 1197 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 2: And let's just say get you know, they win the game. 1198 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 3: Twenty one to fourteen, and Fields doesn't play great again, 1199 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 3: but this time they end up losing. And assuming that 1200 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson is healthy, do you immediately make a change 1201 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 3: or do you get feels another opportunity? See my point here, 1202 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,760 Speaker 3: here's the thing, what what future do you have with 1203 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson? 1204 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 2: Right? 1205 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 3: But they don't think in terms of that. The Steelers, 1206 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 3: since you have a coach Mike Tomlin, it's never had 1207 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,080 Speaker 3: a losing season. He's not about to start one now, 1208 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:07,760 Speaker 3: especially after a three and zho start. But then again, 1209 00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 3: if you have to make a decision, it's not just 1210 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 3: about justin Fields playing right now for an injured Russell 1211 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 3: Wilson's is justin fields your quarterback. 1212 00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 2: Of the future. 1213 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 3: That's what you're trying to figure out, right now you know, 1214 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,880 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson not the quarterback of the future, but it's 1215 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 3: Justin feels the quarterback of the future. And if you've 1216 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 3: already made that decision, then yeah, there's no reason to 1217 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 3: take him out. 1218 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think they've made that decision. I think 1219 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 4: they're in the midst of it, and. 1220 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 2: You don't. 1221 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 4: If you do think that he is your quarterback of 1222 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 4: the future, you definitely don't want to bench him, even 1223 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 4: with the loss, if you think he is your quarterback 1224 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 4: of the future. But if you're still you know, if 1225 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 4: you're still if the jury is still hung on that 1226 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,480 Speaker 4: and you're not sure, then maybe you see what Russell 1227 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 4: Wilson can do, because it's definitely a different type of quarterbacks. 1228 00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 4: So maybe maybe you're curious to see what Wilson does 1229 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 4: with these twos, so maybe you do try him out again. 1230 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 3: If you look at Justin Field's numbers this year, they're. 1231 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 5: Not anything that's going to stand out. That's not going 1232 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 5: to stand out to you. 1233 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 3: No, So it's like, Okay, he hasn't done anything to 1234 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 3: lose a game for them yet. I mean, he has 1235 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 3: a high completion percentage, but he isn't throwing many passes. 1236 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 2: So it's going to be interesting to say. 1237 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 3: I don't think Pittsburgh is any lock against Indianapolis this week. 1238 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,520 Speaker 3: I mean I've been watching the Steelers week after week 1239 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 3: and I'm like, Okay, by the way, one quarterback that 1240 00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 3: ed's been playing well is going to go to the bench. 1241 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:40,680 Speaker 3: Malik Willis. Now, he far exceeded anything I ever thought 1242 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 3: he could do. I mean I said almost on first 1243 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:48,160 Speaker 3: sight when I saw him with Tennessee, like, I'm sorry, 1244 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 3: this guy is not an NFL quarterback. It's not that 1245 00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:53,000 Speaker 3: you don't have the arm, but you got to throw 1246 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 3: the ball accurately, and you've got to be able to 1247 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 3: make split second decisions. 1248 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,200 Speaker 2: And he didn't really seem capable of doing either. 1249 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 3: Not all of a sudden Green Bay and know all, 1250 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 3: a little injury to Jordan Love and you throw him 1251 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 3: in there and it's like, okay, he's playing well. 1252 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:08,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean this really I think goes to. 1253 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 2: Jordan love Is back. 1254 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 4: Think about how many years did Aaron Rodgers sit before 1255 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 4: becoming a starter? 1256 01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 2: Four full years, four full years something. 1257 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 5: You just don't see anymore. 1258 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,959 Speaker 4: I feel like quarterbacks are expected to deliver so quickly. 1259 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 5: And maybe Malik Willis really needed. 1260 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,960 Speaker 4: To just kind of take a step back and watch 1261 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 4: and learn. And here he comes on a new team where. 1262 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 5: It seems like it's a good fit. But I you 1263 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:38,959 Speaker 5: go back to Jordan Love. You go back to Jordan 1264 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:39,479 Speaker 5: Love though. 1265 01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 3: By the way, technically so he has he sat for 1266 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 3: three full years, got nothing but makeup. And then the 1267 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 3: first year that he did start in Green Bay, Aaron Rodgers, 1268 01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:50,439 Speaker 3: he was six and ten. 1269 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1270 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it was like, okay, we waited for this. 1271 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then the next year he wins the two 1272 01:00:59,040 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 3: years later he won the. 1273 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:04,800 Speaker 4: Super Yeah, you have to go back to Jordan Love though. 1274 01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 2: This one. You have to agree. 1275 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's no question about it. 1276 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 4: But it's great to see, right because he's not one 1277 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 4: hundred percent Yeah, then you know he is your franchise quarterback. 1278 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,240 Speaker 4: So if he is not one hundred percent fully healthy 1279 01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 4: and he does struggle, and the reasons he struggles is 1280 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 4: because he's not healthy, then. 1281 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,439 Speaker 5: You you sit him back down so he doesn't get hurt. 1282 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 5: And by the way, for your franchise quarterback, why. 1283 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 3: You got green Bay at home this week, but they're 1284 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 3: going against a Vikings team that looking pretty good with 1285 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 3: Sam Darnold. 1286 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, and I I they still lead the 1287 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:43,480 Speaker 4: NFL with sacks with fifty four quarterback pressures entering Week four. 1288 01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 4: That is still Minnesota, but green Bay they're leading in 1289 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 4: takeaways seven interceptions already. Last year they only had seven 1290 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,840 Speaker 4: interceptions all season. It's it's I don't know who I 1291 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 4: would take here, because I it's just who's gonna who's 1292 01:01:58,840 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 4: gonna adjust better? 1293 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,160 Speaker 3: Well, these are the decisions that people get paid a 1294 01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 3: lot of money to make. 1295 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't want to make these decisions. 1296 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 3: I know one decision I'm going to make right now 1297 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 3: to find out what is trending. And this is the 1298 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,760 Speaker 3: easiest decision of the day because we turn to a 1299 01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 3: guy like Bryan Finley, who again he'll be up late, late, late, 1300 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 3: late late tonight. 1301 01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, very late. So that what is that like 1302 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 2: a three hour postgame show? It is one hour. 1303 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 9: We take phone calls and I essentially kind of like 1304 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 9: what I do with you, Steve. So yeah, once, as 1305 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 9: you know, Steve gets here very early, many hours before 1306 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 9: the show, and oftentimes he will be sitting in this cubicle, 1307 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 9: if you will, with me, talking about his life. Sometimes 1308 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 9: I feel like I'm part therapist for him. Sometimes I 1309 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,480 Speaker 9: feel like I'm part babysitter for him, and those are 1310 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 9: the two things that they do on the show because 1311 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:51,720 Speaker 9: oftentimes people are calling and complaining about how the game went, 1312 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 9: and I'm there trying to ease their woes and their 1313 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 9: sorrows and say it's gonna be okay. 1314 01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 2: It's going to be okay. Now, I will say this though, 1315 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 2: Now look at when we engage. 1316 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 3: And by the way, he literally has an open door policy, 1317 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 3: the only update guy that keeps his door open, so 1318 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 3: I always know when the door is open, it's Befen 1319 01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 3: in there, you know. And obviously I want to find 1320 01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 3: out about his newly married life. Everything seems to be 1321 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 3: going good. But I did offer you as stat. Do 1322 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 3: not give it out? Okay, well not, but I gave 1323 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 3: you a stat to use on the postgame UCLA talk. 1324 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 9: Albeit you're assuming and you're only thinking about that stat. 1325 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 2: More so if they. 1326 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:33,120 Speaker 3: Lose, well, I think again, they're twenty five and a 1327 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 3: half point underdogs. So as much as I'll be rooting 1328 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,520 Speaker 3: for UCLA to win, most likely at home against Oregon, 1329 01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 3: they will lose most likely. 1330 01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 2: But I don't believe me. I would hope they shock 1331 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,760 Speaker 2: the world. Yeah, I don't think like LSU last week. 1332 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 2: I don't think Oregon is going to cover in their 1333 01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:51,400 Speaker 2: matchup against Okay, so you think that, but that still 1334 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,360 Speaker 2: means an L. Are you really you can't get like 1335 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:54,920 Speaker 2: a half of an L for that or something? 1336 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 3: I hope. But I did give you a stat that 1337 01:03:56,920 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 3: if they do lose, yes, you'll it'd probably come. 1338 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 2: I been conversation, not pessimism at. 1339 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 5: All if they lose. 1340 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 9: More like Steve saying, when they lose, how dare you 1341 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 9: your UCLA grad? 1342 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 5: He's too logical. 1343 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 3: I was that way when I was doing commentary and 1344 01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:16,000 Speaker 3: UCLA football as the one year analyst. I like to 1345 01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:19,440 Speaker 3: speak the truth. Who's listening, right, the UCLA fans. So 1346 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 3: if they're really good, I'm cheering loud. If they're bad, 1347 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 3: that was brutal on them. Yeah, brutal. 1348 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 2: This is a washball? Is that what you said? Pretty much? 1349 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 6: Wow? 1350 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah?

And from who they're cheering about, who is watchable? 1355 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 9: I would have to put under those categories arch manning 1356 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 9: for Texas. Right now, he is dealing for the Longhorns, handing. 1357 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 7: To take the staff out third down at a long 1358 01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,360 Speaker 7: nine half the STAF pressure coming to sixty FO. 1359 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 9: Texas Longhorns Radio network arch manning three hundred and twenty 1360 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 9: four yards passing two touchdowns.

They get uprooted in the form of a 1387 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 9: loss to unranked Kentucky at vad Hemingway Stadium in Oxford. 1388 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 9: Also number twenty three Kansas State wins against number twenty 1389 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,280 Speaker 9: Oklahoma State forty two to twenty.

And a couple of nuggets related to the NFL, 1395 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 9: because yes, we do have a busy day of NFL 1396 01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:14,200 Speaker 9: on this late tomorrow. We do know that, according to reports, 1397 01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:18,800 Speaker 9: Packers quarterback Jordan Love will be active and supposedly in 1398 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 9: the starting lineup for Green Bay in their game against 1399 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 9: the Vikings, this after he was inactive the last two games. 1400 01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:29,200 Speaker 9: And Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert throw him out there and 1401 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 9: see what he can do. He's got a high ankle sprain, 1402 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:34,320 Speaker 9: but he's going to battle through. They're going to keep 1403 01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 9: him in the starting lineup, although they are Montsien Steve 1404 01:07:38,320 --> 01:07:39,400 Speaker 9: gonna evaluate that. 1405 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 2: Ankle and see how it holds up. 1406 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:44,640 Speaker 9: But it doesn't seem like there's an option for him 1407 01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 9: other than to play. 1408 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,360 Speaker 2: It's against the Chiefs, so you just sick. 1409 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 5: But he doesn't feel that way. 1410 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 3: I just seen him because it's the chief if he's not, 1411 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 3: and a high ankle sprain is a very tough injury 1412 01:07:58,160 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 3: to fight through. And now you're going against one of 1413 01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:02,480 Speaker 3: the best defense in the league and they want to 1414 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 3: they want to put him out, okay, and if it 1415 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 3: gets worse, now you're really up against him. It's a 1416 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:11,360 Speaker 3: game you're not expected to win. Your a seven point 1417 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:14,440 Speaker 3: underdog at HUT. They're banged up anyway. 1418 01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:17,679 Speaker 2: Plus your your top player, Joe All to your number one. 1419 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,920 Speaker 3: Pick, who's already your best offensive tackles out of this game, 1420 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:22,240 Speaker 3: I just wouldn't play him. 1421 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 1422 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1423 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,160 Speaker 9: And also just to mention, to add on to that, 1424 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 9: we also know that Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown he's 1425 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:31,439 Speaker 9: downgraded to ALF. 1426 01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,200 Speaker 2: So that is a big move in the. 1427 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 9: Terms of fantasy football. I know, Steve, You're you're fully 1428 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:39,599 Speaker 9: ingratiated in that world. 1429 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 2: Now, No Hylas played in nineteen eighty seven. Wow, I 1430 01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 2: didn't know that existed. Yeah I was. 1431 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 3: I'll explain that on another day.

Would you like to introduce this next segment please? 1435 01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 5: This next segment we're figuring still out the name. 1436 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 2: Do we have a name on this segment? 1437 01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:09,360 Speaker 5: We want to know too. We want to know too. 1438 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:13,599 Speaker 5: We have game Day geniuses, is what our producer Patrick. 1439 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 5: I like that one has a thought of which I 1440 01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:16,839 Speaker 5: like too. 1441 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:21,519 Speaker 2: Which is just mocking me, obviously mocking, but MONSI liked. 1442 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:23,200 Speaker 2: I thought it was I don't catch it. 1443 01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:23,639 Speaker 7: It is. 1444 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:27,920 Speaker 2: It should just be game Day genius. 1445 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 4: Right, because you knows, all right, it's that time for Patrick, 1446 01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 4: our brilliant producer, to pick out three random games. 1447 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 3: We have no idea in advance which games they are 1448 01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 3: to make our picks. And last week I decided to 1449 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 3: add a couple of layers to this by saying that, 1450 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:48,719 Speaker 3: all right, we're just picking winners. We're not going against 1451 01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:52,640 Speaker 3: the spread. But if you want to pick up a point, 1452 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:57,240 Speaker 3: you go on the over under. But if you get 1453 01:09:57,280 --> 01:10:01,560 Speaker 3: the over under wrong, you lose a point. 1454 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:03,760 Speaker 2: And only I can do this right. 1455 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:07,120 Speaker 3: So last week, the one game I got right that 1456 01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 3: Monsy got wrong was I had the Lions, she had 1457 01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:13,320 Speaker 3: the Cardinals did so I get the point there. But 1458 01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 3: that's also the game I decided to go over and 1459 01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 3: it wasn't even close. It was a big undergame, so 1460 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 3: I literally gave the point back. So what are the 1461 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 3: standings right now? 1462 01:10:24,280 --> 01:10:27,679 Speaker 8: Well, kind of with that now again, I was also 1463 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,960 Speaker 8: kind of doing like the record, like the sevens and loss. 1464 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,200 Speaker 8: That's kind of how I'm doing the negative point for you, Steve, 1465 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 8: Like it's as of how it stands, because MONSI does 1466 01:10:38,040 --> 01:10:41,120 Speaker 8: get the extra point with that mac Jones there. 1467 01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, so also we get an extra moms. 1468 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 8: He's looking at seven and three. Steve, you were at 1469 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 8: four and six just with the added and bone. 1470 01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 2: Seven three, four and six. All right, yell, that means I'm. 1471 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 4: Down lucky that didn't get genius? 1472 01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 5: Remember that? 1473 01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:56,920 Speaker 2: Yes, you did. 1474 01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 3: We say make a bold prediction, and you predicted that somehow, 1475 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:04,960 Speaker 3: some way Mac Jones was going to see the field 1476 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:05,479 Speaker 3: and he did. 1477 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 2: He did. 1478 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:08,320 Speaker 3: And then I followed that up by he was saying 1479 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,000 Speaker 3: Jacksonville was going to get shut out. 1480 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:11,920 Speaker 5: I did, And then I said C. J. Strau would 1481 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 5: get sacked five times. It got sacked four. 1482 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 4: Because they took him out of the game because they 1483 01:11:15,880 --> 01:11:18,240 Speaker 4: were losing, so that would have been another point for me. 1484 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 2: You're lucky, okay, just rubbing salt in the. 1485 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:22,439 Speaker 5: Mo That's exactly what I've I'm believable. 1486 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:25,720 Speaker 2: All right. What is our first game here? Patrick? All right? Well, 1487 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:27,559 Speaker 2: first game we got here? 1488 01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:34,760 Speaker 8: It is the Philadelphia Eagles at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 1489 01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:39,040 Speaker 8: Bucks are home and with the over under right now, 1490 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,400 Speaker 8: guys is forty two and a half points and the 1491 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:43,080 Speaker 8: Eagles are up point a half favorites. 1492 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 2: Why don't we start off. 1493 01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:48,080 Speaker 8: With mister Cannaball Hartman himself Steve go take it away. 1494 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:51,840 Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, Losers go first. All right, So we well 1495 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:54,479 Speaker 3: we just heard the Brown's out right. Age Brown's out 1496 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:57,080 Speaker 3: for the Eagles, which is going to make their already 1497 01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 3: suspect offense even more inept in this game. Both teams 1498 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:05,120 Speaker 3: sitting at two and one. The Eagles, they've really came 1499 01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,160 Speaker 3: up with a big win last week. I mean, that 1500 01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 3: was a nice come from behind victory. Uh, but Jalen's 1501 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 3: Hurts already has more interceptions and touchdown passes. I'm gonna 1502 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 3: go with the Bucks at home. I'm gonna go with 1503 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,519 Speaker 3: the Bucks at home. I haven't decided on the over under. 1504 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:20,840 Speaker 3: It's not a big number forty two and a half, 1505 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 3: but I'm gonna I'm gonna definitely go Bucks at home 1506 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 3: to beat the Eagles. 1507 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:29,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't disagree Poor. You know, Jalen Hurts doesn't 1508 01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:30,720 Speaker 4: have his offensive. 1509 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:31,880 Speaker 5: Weapons that maybe he was hoping for. 1510 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:36,200 Speaker 4: He's thrown an interception in seven straight games. He's given 1511 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 4: the most giveaways since twenty twenty three. 1512 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 5: Like he he. 1513 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:43,680 Speaker 4: Is not as reliable, I think as Philadelphia wants him 1514 01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:45,439 Speaker 4: to be. But again, he's missing so many of his weapons. 1515 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:47,360 Speaker 4: So I'm also taking the Bucks at home on this. 1516 01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:50,519 Speaker 5: One, and you know what, I'm gonna take the under. 1517 01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:51,960 Speaker 2: Wow. 1518 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 8: We have our first taking over under on No. One 1519 01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 8: taking the under. All right, all right, I'm gonna go 1520 01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:05,200 Speaker 8: on this game. I'm gonna go bold prediction on this one. 1521 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:09,839 Speaker 3: Ready, Sakwan Barkley has less than fifty yards rushing? 1522 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:10,200 Speaker 5: Wow? 1523 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:13,200 Speaker 2: Is that bold enough? You know what I mean. He's 1524 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 2: got he's averaging. Let's go with it. 1525 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:17,719 Speaker 3: He's averaging one hundred and twenty yards rushing a game. 1526 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:21,360 Speaker 3: I say he has less than fifty yards rushing. 1527 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:23,280 Speaker 5: That's bold, that is bold. 1528 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, all right, good, I like that one. All Right, 1529 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:29,640 Speaker 2: I'm feeling good about myself. But sure, I'll tell you what. 1530 01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:31,400 Speaker 2: Let's finish this up on the other side. 1531 01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:38,600 Speaker 3: As we continue on game day Genius, the ES is pending, hopefully. 1532 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:43,599 Speaker 3: This is Fox Football Saturday, Steve Harban Montsie Blogios.

But we're often running right now, one game 1559 01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 3: of the books? What is the second game here? 1560 01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:03,479 Speaker 2: Patrick? All right? 1561 01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 8: So the second game we got going for us, it's 1562 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:08,400 Speaker 8: kind of one's gonna cook a little bit. We got 1563 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 8: the Washington Commanders and they are at Steve Arizona for 1564 01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 8: your Cardinals. By the way, the Cardinals are three and 1565 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:22,160 Speaker 8: a half point favorites. Over under is forty eight point five. However, Moncey, 1566 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 8: our fearless leader in the clubhouse, you go first. 1567 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 5: All right. 1568 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 4: So I don't know if I'm crazy for believing in 1569 01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 4: the Cardinals as much as I do. I did pick 1570 01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:32,360 Speaker 4: them last week and they did not win, but they 1571 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:33,120 Speaker 4: didn't look great. 1572 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 5: I thought there was more in there. 1573 01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:37,679 Speaker 4: And then you have Jaden Daniels coming off his best 1574 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:42,880 Speaker 4: game for the Commanders, looking good, throwing, running the whole thing, 1575 01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:50,679 Speaker 4: the whole thing. I am gonna take the Cardinals at 1576 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:52,599 Speaker 4: home against the Commanders. 1577 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 2: Over on there on this one is how much it is? 1578 01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,559 Speaker 2: Forty eight and a half over under. 1579 01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:01,519 Speaker 3: A right, So two Heisman Trophy winning quarterbacks Kyler Murray 1580 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:05,560 Speaker 3: and Jaydon Daniels. Jade Daniels looked dynamite last week in Cincinnati, 1581 01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:08,360 Speaker 3: but the Bengals defense is awful. It is awful, and 1582 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,759 Speaker 3: the Cardinals defense isn't much better. 1583 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:17,599 Speaker 2: I'm going Cardinals in this game. 1584 01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,000 Speaker 3: Tough to win back to back road games for a 1585 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,400 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback, and I'm going. 1586 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 2: Over forty eight and a half. We got a big. 1587 01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:30,559 Speaker 3: Number over for I did this last week with a 1588 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:33,679 Speaker 3: Cardinals game. There's no way this is going to be under. 1589 01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 3: Two weeks in a row. Lions couldn't put up the numbers. 1590 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,720 Speaker 3: Commanders defense isn't good. Kyler will have a big day. 1591 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 3: Jaane Daniels have big day. I'm taking Arizona, like Monzie, 1592 01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 3: I'm going over forty eight and a half. 1593 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:49,680 Speaker 8: Do we going once going twice? Do we want to 1594 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:51,559 Speaker 8: go bold on this or are you going to make 1595 01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 8: that a bold one? Steve, I'm just going over.

All right? 1598 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:04,840 Speaker 8: So we're gonna go with our final game, and personally, 1599 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:09,519 Speaker 8: this one's my favorite, and mons is about to know 1600 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:14,000 Speaker 8: why because we have the Seahawks, my Seahawks ladies and gentlemen, 1601 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:16,639 Speaker 8: taking on the Detroit Lions in Detroit. 1602 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:18,360 Speaker 2: Lions are three and a half favorites. 1603 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 8: Over under is forty six and a half and Steve 1604 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 8: start us off hopefully in the right direction here. 1605 01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:29,960 Speaker 3: Well again, home teams on Monday night football are always 1606 01:17:29,960 --> 01:17:31,720 Speaker 3: a good choice. I say that the last time I 1607 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:37,360 Speaker 3: did this, the home team had lost. I again, Gino 1608 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 3: Smith hasn't played great the Seahawks have taken advantage of 1609 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:44,080 Speaker 3: teams they could beat and should beat and did beat. 1610 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:46,519 Speaker 3: They are not going to win on the road against 1611 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 3: the Lions, So I will take the Lions at home 1612 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 3: against the Seahawks. Sorry about that, Patrick, but I know 1613 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:57,080 Speaker 3: Moncey and you have some kind of deal that she said, 1614 01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:02,280 Speaker 3: because it's your favorite team and she loves you that much, 1615 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:03,679 Speaker 3: she will take Seattle. 1616 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:07,040 Speaker 5: He's trying to bait me into taking Seattle when you 1617 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 5: don't need to bait me. 1618 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:12,040 Speaker 4: Seattle leads the NFL in pass defense. They are fourth 1619 01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:13,599 Speaker 4: and third down conversion rates. 1620 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 5: Mike McDonald is. 1621 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 4: Literally doing what he brought, what he was doing in Baltimore, 1622 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,600 Speaker 4: And for some reason, I am believing more of what 1623 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,719 Speaker 4: the Seahawks are doing than what the Lions are doing 1624 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:31,600 Speaker 4: right now at this point, I oh see, like my 1625 01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:36,600 Speaker 4: head is saying Lions, but my heart is saying Seahawks. 1626 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:38,200 Speaker 2: You gotta go with the gut. 1627 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 4: And I'm gonna go with the gut, and I'm gonna 1628 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 4: say the Seahawks disappoint on Monday Night Football the Lions. 1629 01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 2: Anyone interested on the over under forty six, I'm. 1630 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,880 Speaker 5: Not touching that. 1631 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 2: Any bold predictions on this scale. 1632 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,280 Speaker 5: No, I don't have one of those either. For this one, I'll. 1633 01:18:58,120 --> 01:18:58,960 Speaker 2: Have a bold prediction. 1634 01:18:59,200 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 5: Go for it. 1635 01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:01,920 Speaker 2: Gino Smith does not finish the game. 1636 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:06,559 Speaker 8: Wow, you're talking Sam Howell coming in Steve Geno Smith 1637 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 8: could be. 1638 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 3: An injury, but I hope not. I don't want anybody 1639 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,360 Speaker 3: to get hurt. But Geno Smith will not finish this game. 1640 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:16,120 Speaker 8: Bold, I'll give it to you.

Here's what I've said to listeners of 1645 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:30,720 Speaker 3: me over the many many years have been doing this. 1646 01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 3: When I make any kind of pick, if you were 1647 01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:38,760 Speaker 3: just to pick the opposite way you would be you 1648 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:40,840 Speaker 3: would literally be sitting on a mount of money that 1649 01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:44,559 Speaker 3: would blow your mind away. That's how insane it has 1650 01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:47,280 Speaker 3: been over the years for me in picking games. Last 1651 01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:50,080 Speaker 3: week was just a prime example, the one game I 1652 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 3: got right instead of you picking the Lions against Arizona, 1653 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:57,200 Speaker 3: and then I took the over gave it back. So 1654 01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:59,639 Speaker 3: seven and three verses four and six is what you're saying, 1655 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:01,080 Speaker 3: is our records right now? 1656 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,479 Speaker 2: Patrick? Seven? To three versus four and six. Correct. Indeed, 1657 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 2: all right, long season. 1658 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:07,800 Speaker 5: There is a long season, yes, ahead of it. 1659 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 3: I pick up a game, you know, game week and 1660 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,760 Speaker 3: everything else is what we gotta do, all right. We're 1661 01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:15,759 Speaker 3: getting ready, by the way, game just underway right now, 1662 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:19,120 Speaker 3: Alabama and Georgia. No score early on. For all the latest, 1663 01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:21,360 Speaker 3: keep it here. This is Fox Sports Radio.
