Oh, speak of 19 00:01:00,748 --> 00:01:03,108 Speaker 1: the devil. Tom Brady and the Buccaneers very happy to 20 00:01:03,148 --> 00:01:05,628 Speaker 1: have broken their three games. Last week against the Rams 21 00:01:05,628 --> 00:01:08,548 Speaker 1: at the Huge was unbelievable to see in the post 22 00:01:08,588 --> 00:01:12,108 Speaker 1: game his emotion behind it the Rams. That win was 23 00:01:12,108 --> 00:01:13,708 Speaker 1: over the Rams. They're very happy to be sitting on 24 00:01:13,748 --> 00:01:16,388 Speaker 1: top of the NFC self standings and from the sounds 25 00:01:16,428 --> 00:01:19,748 Speaker 1: of it, traveling to play here in Germany is keeping, 26 00:01:19,828 --> 00:01:25,668 Speaker 1: goes Tom Brady, good vibes on the go, the chance 27 00:01:25,748 --> 00:01:28,708 Speaker 1: to go across to another country play a sport that 28 00:01:28,748 --> 00:01:31,948 Speaker 1: I love you. I had heard there's three million ticket 29 00:01:32,068 --> 00:01:34,988 Speaker 1: request for sixty seven thousand seats, so the place is 30 00:01:34,988 --> 00:01:37,348 Speaker 1: going to be rocking. And if it's anything like what 31 00:01:37,508 --> 00:01:42,868 Speaker 1: I see those German Bundesliga games, I mean this is 32 00:01:42,868 --> 00:01:44,868 Speaker 1: going to be one of the epic games that we've 33 00:01:44,868 --> 00:01:48,748 Speaker 1: ever played in some super excited. Leave it to Tom 34 00:01:48,748 --> 00:01:51,268 Speaker 1: Brady to watch Bundesliga in a spare time. We've seen 35 00:01:51,308 --> 00:01:54,108 Speaker 1: a roller coaster of game day emotions from Tom Brady 36 00:01:54,148 --> 00:01:56,108 Speaker 1: over these past several weeks, not just from him, from 37 00:01:56,108 --> 00:01:58,388 Speaker 1: the people that believe in him. It's been such a 38 00:01:58,428 --> 00:02:01,588 Speaker 1: confusing time watching him play. We've seen salty Tom after 39 00:02:01,668 --> 00:02:05,348 Speaker 1: three state losses. There's been colorful language, happy Tom after 40 00:02:05,428 --> 00:02:07,228 Speaker 1: last week, and then that hug. I'm just so obsessed 41 00:02:07,228 --> 00:02:09,708 Speaker 1: with that hug at Byron Leftwich. Which version of Tom 42 00:02:09,748 --> 00:02:12,508 Speaker 1: Brady will we see on Sunday, Peter. It's back against 43 00:02:12,508 --> 00:02:14,548 Speaker 1: the wall Brady, which is a very rare version of 44 00:02:14,588 --> 00:02:17,468 Speaker 1: Tom Brady where people are actually doubting him. And this 45 00:02:17,548 --> 00:02:19,788 Speaker 1: is the kind of time where I love seeing Brady 46 00:02:20,068 --> 00:02:22,908 Speaker 1: overcome and also rally those around him. That hug with 47 00:02:23,028 --> 00:02:25,428 Speaker 1: left which that you've referenced, I think was so significant 48 00:02:25,468 --> 00:02:27,348 Speaker 1: because I think a lot of people were saying there 49 00:02:27,428 --> 00:02:29,308 Speaker 1: might be issues between the two of them, were watching 50 00:02:29,348 --> 00:02:31,428 Speaker 1: this offense. They can't run the ball. Brady probably has 51 00:02:31,428 --> 00:02:33,748 Speaker 1: lost faith in Leftwich, but it's his hug, and Brady 52 00:02:33,988 --> 00:02:36,748 Speaker 1: says the left which we did it we And I 53 00:02:36,788 --> 00:02:39,468 Speaker 1: think the fact that Brady is still there and still 54 00:02:39,468 --> 00:02:41,868 Speaker 1: fighting and that left which is still on staff, says 55 00:02:41,868 --> 00:02:44,388 Speaker 1: a lot about Brady having that guy's back and saying no, no, 56 00:02:44,868 --> 00:02:47,148 Speaker 1: he's the guy. We're keeping him here. And let's roll. 57 00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:49,148 Speaker 1: I go back a couple of years ago. You were 58 00:02:49,148 --> 00:02:51,828 Speaker 1: on this Patriots team, and it's after Willie's career, but 59 00:02:51,868 --> 00:02:55,308 Speaker 1: it was twenty nineteen Patriots, and they had lost two 60 00:02:55,388 --> 00:02:58,548 Speaker 1: games late in December, and those two games were the 61 00:02:58,588 --> 00:03:01,108 Speaker 1: worthy opponents. They had lost to Kansas City, and they 62 00:03:01,108 --> 00:03:03,028 Speaker 1: had lost to the Houston Texans, who were rolling at 63 00:03:03,028 --> 00:03:05,668 Speaker 1: the time. And there's a setterday night game against Buffalo 64 00:03:05,708 --> 00:03:08,708 Speaker 1: and he's down to like Jacobe Meyers and Philip dor 65 00:03:08,828 --> 00:03:11,348 Speaker 1: Set and I was on the sidelines for this game. 66 00:03:11,668 --> 00:03:14,028 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner, our colleague, and Mike Terrico were in the booth, 67 00:03:14,428 --> 00:03:16,988 Speaker 1: and Brady just willed his team to victory. You were 68 00:03:16,988 --> 00:03:19,188 Speaker 1: on defense that day, Jason, But I remember this game 69 00:03:19,308 --> 00:03:22,788 Speaker 1: because it was a back against the wall. Tom. We 70 00:03:22,828 --> 00:03:25,588 Speaker 1: don't have all your guys. Everyone's against us. This was 71 00:03:25,628 --> 00:03:28,268 Speaker 1: a time when everyone's like Bradyship retire, he's done, he's gay, 72 00:03:29,748 --> 00:03:32,028 Speaker 1: and Brady found a way And I kind of liked 73 00:03:32,108 --> 00:03:34,948 Speaker 1: that version of Brady. Where now people are picking apart 74 00:03:34,988 --> 00:03:37,428 Speaker 1: his personal life, people are picking apart his relationship with 75 00:03:37,428 --> 00:03:39,828 Speaker 1: his coaches. People are picking apart what's going on in 76 00:03:39,828 --> 00:03:42,788 Speaker 1: the offseason. Put it on me, I got it. I 77 00:03:42,868 --> 00:03:45,948 Speaker 1: will wheel us to victory. That's the greatest of all time. 78 00:03:46,508 --> 00:03:48,548 Speaker 1: Forty five years old, going to play in the first 79 00:03:48,588 --> 00:03:51,188 Speaker 1: game ever in Germany and it's backings against the wall. 80 00:03:51,508 --> 00:03:53,188 Speaker 1: Bring it on. I'm ready for Sunday, and you're right, 81 00:03:53,268 --> 00:03:55,508 Speaker 1: Dusta Brady, We're all used to sing and you talked 82 00:03:55,548 --> 00:03:58,628 Speaker 1: about that moment in that game. Willie knows it in 83 00:03:58,668 --> 00:04:00,868 Speaker 1: New England. And one thing they always say is real 84 00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:04,308 Speaker 1: football doesn't start till after things. Given so everything that's 85 00:04:04,428 --> 00:04:07,508 Speaker 1: transpired for Brady in this season, there's still time. Man. 86 00:04:07,788 --> 00:04:10,588 Speaker 1: What we saw from him last week with the bad 87 00:04:10,588 --> 00:04:12,348 Speaker 1: word that he said after in the press, it was 88 00:04:12,388 --> 00:04:14,548 Speaker 1: a huge moment. And when I'm looking forward to his 89 00:04:14,668 --> 00:04:17,748 Speaker 1: international tim that's what I want to see. He's discovering 90 00:04:17,788 --> 00:04:20,308 Speaker 1: this new way he's coming over here. You're going on 91 00:04:20,348 --> 00:04:22,708 Speaker 1: the role, you're just what your teammates. There is extra 92 00:04:22,828 --> 00:04:25,028 Speaker 1: days out here when you're coming over on this long 93 00:04:25,068 --> 00:04:27,748 Speaker 1: fight de bonding that goes on on the plane, and 94 00:04:27,788 --> 00:04:29,868 Speaker 1: then while you're here you go out to eat one night. 95 00:04:30,148 --> 00:04:32,948 Speaker 1: That's the time I'm looking for three and old. Internationally, 96 00:04:32,948 --> 00:04:35,028 Speaker 1: he has had over three hundred yards in each game, 97 00:04:35,148 --> 00:04:37,388 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in each game, and this is what I 98 00:04:37,428 --> 00:04:39,308 Speaker 1: want to see. I want to see a happy Tom Brady. 99 00:04:39,548 --> 00:04:42,908 Speaker 1: Him being here walking the streets of Munich, embracing the culture, 100 00:04:43,108 --> 00:04:45,268 Speaker 1: and then going out there on Sunday with the same 101 00:04:45,508 --> 00:04:48,588 Speaker 1: savage mindset in the same killer instinct that he's shown 102 00:04:48,668 --> 00:04:50,868 Speaker 1: for years. And I think, like you just said, the 103 00:04:50,908 --> 00:04:53,668 Speaker 1: fact that so many people are doubting him, his coaches, 104 00:04:53,868 --> 00:04:56,548 Speaker 1: his supporting cast around him, this is the time that 105 00:04:56,588 --> 00:04:58,828 Speaker 1: we want to see and we've seen him struggle, but 106 00:04:58,868 --> 00:05:00,908 Speaker 1: we saw him come back and win a game versus 107 00:05:00,908 --> 00:05:03,428 Speaker 1: the Rams. Coming off of that, coming against a team 108 00:05:03,428 --> 00:05:06,028 Speaker 1: like Seattle, who fired up? Who's ready to go? And 109 00:05:06,108 --> 00:05:10,668 Speaker 1: how International? Tom? Let's do it out there? So back 110 00:05:10,668 --> 00:05:15,268 Speaker 1: against the wall, Tom International, Tom the way the Showman Tom. 111 00:05:15,308 --> 00:05:18,388 Speaker 1: Because this man, anything he touched turns to gold. He's 112 00:05:18,428 --> 00:05:21,148 Speaker 1: got a production company. He's putting documentaries out about himself, 113 00:05:21,188 --> 00:05:23,948 Speaker 1: produced by end. He's got a podcast, He's got TV twelve. 114 00:05:24,468 --> 00:05:27,588 Speaker 1: The first one feels like the first ever fitness base. 115 00:05:27,708 --> 00:05:29,628 Speaker 1: Whatever he just put as, slapped his name on it, 116 00:05:29,668 --> 00:05:32,428 Speaker 1: and it turned into gold. That is what this man does. 117 00:05:32,508 --> 00:05:35,188 Speaker 1: He said it in his podcast himself. Three million people 118 00:05:35,228 --> 00:05:37,228 Speaker 1: want to see him play in person, and only a 119 00:05:37,308 --> 00:05:39,668 Speaker 1: select seventy six thousand are going to be allowed into 120 00:05:39,668 --> 00:05:42,428 Speaker 1: the stadium. We've seen this from him before. I feel 121 00:05:42,468 --> 00:05:44,788 Speaker 1: like this guy arrives on a scene where he knows 122 00:05:44,868 --> 00:05:46,628 Speaker 1: this is going to be a big deal and he 123 00:05:46,788 --> 00:05:49,668 Speaker 1: just balls out. Historically, this man has an entire wing 124 00:05:49,748 --> 00:05:52,348 Speaker 1: in NFL films, and so we pull out these highlights 125 00:05:52,348 --> 00:05:55,308 Speaker 1: from Super Bowls. You know, he has all these stats about, oh, 126 00:05:55,388 --> 00:05:57,908 Speaker 1: it was the greatest deficit against Peyton Manning and he 127 00:05:57,948 --> 00:05:59,908 Speaker 1: comes back from being down twenty four nothing and he 128 00:06:00,148 --> 00:06:02,748 Speaker 1: goes three straight third and tens and sets his team 129 00:06:02,788 --> 00:06:06,148 Speaker 1: up for a game winning field goal. You just blind 130 00:06:06,188 --> 00:06:08,068 Speaker 1: yourself and pick one of these scenarios, and Tom Brady 131 00:06:08,108 --> 00:06:10,628 Speaker 1: seems to bubble up. But that is why the last 132 00:06:10,668 --> 00:06:13,188 Speaker 1: couple weeks were so confusing. It makes so much more sense, No, 133 00:06:13,348 --> 00:06:15,588 Speaker 1: Jason mccordy that what he has known and what he 134 00:06:15,628 --> 00:06:18,188 Speaker 1: fell in love with was real football's played after Thanksgiving 135 00:06:18,188 --> 00:06:21,428 Speaker 1: because he's like checking his clock, checking his calendar. He's like, nope, 136 00:06:21,508 --> 00:06:24,588 Speaker 1: not number twenty whatever. Yeah, Like I'm good still. I 137 00:06:24,668 --> 00:06:27,108 Speaker 1: think Tom Brady is about to arrive and just say 138 00:06:27,308 --> 00:06:30,468 Speaker 1: don't let me, don't wait on me. I will show you. 139 00:06:30,508 --> 00:06:33,548 Speaker 1: I will be the showman internationally to say I have 140 00:06:33,668 --> 00:06:35,228 Speaker 1: arrived at this stage and he's gonna put on a 141 00:06:35,268 --> 00:06:37,028 Speaker 1: show for the people. That that sounds like a really, 142 00:06:37,068 --> 00:06:39,308 Speaker 1: really busy Tom Brady. I mean, we said a lot 143 00:06:39,388 --> 00:06:42,268 Speaker 1: of different things, right, and to overcome as much as 144 00:06:42,268 --> 00:06:45,548 Speaker 1: he's overcome in so many years and so many different scenarios. 145 00:06:45,588 --> 00:06:47,708 Speaker 1: You've played with him, I'll play with him. I understand that. 146 00:06:48,028 --> 00:06:50,388 Speaker 1: Regardless of what you've given, whether it's personnel or not 147 00:06:50,428 --> 00:06:53,988 Speaker 1: having the guys you need out their injuries, Tom has 148 00:06:54,028 --> 00:06:56,148 Speaker 1: always found a way to will his team and make 149 00:06:56,188 --> 00:06:59,148 Speaker 1: other guys better and step up. And he's always performed 150 00:06:59,188 --> 00:07:01,708 Speaker 1: at a certain level on these type of stages. So 151 00:07:01,748 --> 00:07:04,828 Speaker 1: whether it's international, whether it's at home, whether it's a way, 152 00:07:04,868 --> 00:07:08,788 Speaker 1: regardless of what it is, Tom is he has tunnel vision. Right. 153 00:07:08,988 --> 00:07:11,788 Speaker 1: Whatever happened last week, that's great, guys, we got that win. 154 00:07:11,908 --> 00:07:14,468 Speaker 1: We needed that. Let's give the big hugs. Lets everybody 155 00:07:14,468 --> 00:07:16,948 Speaker 1: bring it in. This is what we're capable of doing, 156 00:07:17,068 --> 00:07:19,468 Speaker 1: regardless of the injuries, regardless of what's going on on 157 00:07:19,548 --> 00:07:22,668 Speaker 1: either side of the ball. Forget about statistics. This is 158 00:07:22,708 --> 00:07:24,788 Speaker 1: what we're capable of doing, and this is what we 159 00:07:24,788 --> 00:07:27,788 Speaker 1: will do going forward. So I think all that just 160 00:07:28,108 --> 00:07:32,148 Speaker 1: gave them an answered interjection of Okay, let's get back 161 00:07:32,148 --> 00:07:33,908 Speaker 1: to where we was a couple of years ago, when 162 00:07:33,908 --> 00:07:37,028 Speaker 1: this team struggled the first eight nine weeks and then 163 00:07:37,108 --> 00:07:39,628 Speaker 1: we figured it out. You mentioned left with which we 164 00:07:39,668 --> 00:07:41,988 Speaker 1: figured out our offense, we figured out what worked for us, 165 00:07:42,388 --> 00:07:44,828 Speaker 1: We got everything back together, and we went on to 166 00:07:44,828 --> 00:07:47,468 Speaker 1: win a super Bowl. And this is the reason why 167 00:07:47,628 --> 00:07:51,028 Speaker 1: I came back, okay, because we had unfinished business last 168 00:07:51,068 --> 00:07:53,188 Speaker 1: year where we feel like we were a little out 169 00:07:53,188 --> 00:07:55,108 Speaker 1: man and we thought if we had more of our 170 00:07:55,228 --> 00:07:57,268 Speaker 1: guys back and we were healthy, we were just to 171 00:07:57,348 --> 00:07:59,828 Speaker 1: play away from getting back to the super Bowl last year. 172 00:08:00,108 --> 00:08:03,588 Speaker 1: So if we have everybody here that did what we 173 00:08:03,628 --> 00:08:06,828 Speaker 1: did a couple of years ago, what's stopping us. We 174 00:08:06,908 --> 00:08:08,828 Speaker 1: have to figure it out. And you know this more 175 00:08:08,868 --> 00:08:11,828 Speaker 1: than anybody. It gets back to the basics, the little things, 176 00:08:11,828 --> 00:08:15,228 Speaker 1: the fundamentals, regardless of where we're playing. So I think 177 00:08:15,668 --> 00:08:17,708 Speaker 1: last week help is going to give them a burst 178 00:08:17,748 --> 00:08:21,068 Speaker 1: of energy and the hugs and the relief and the 179 00:08:21,108 --> 00:08:22,948 Speaker 1: monkey all for our back. It's like, listen, we're still 180 00:08:22,988 --> 00:08:25,228 Speaker 1: a good football team. We just got to start doing 181 00:08:25,228 --> 00:08:26,988 Speaker 1: the little things we need to do to win football. 182 00:08:27,108 --> 00:08:28,988 Speaker 1: Ask you something, sure, and I think you've got great 183 00:08:29,028 --> 00:08:31,508 Speaker 1: perspective on this. You know it's going through this stuff 184 00:08:31,508 --> 00:08:33,468 Speaker 1: in his personal life. They lost three straight games. They 185 00:08:34,228 --> 00:08:36,708 Speaker 1: does Brady read into the headlines at all, or is 186 00:08:36,748 --> 00:08:40,108 Speaker 1: he so disciplined that he doesn't read the doubters and 187 00:08:40,108 --> 00:08:42,348 Speaker 1: it doesn't even hit his radar. Or is he aware 188 00:08:42,428 --> 00:08:44,028 Speaker 1: of what people are saying out there? Is he one 189 00:08:44,028 --> 00:08:46,268 Speaker 1: of those guys that's watching a good morning football or 190 00:08:46,348 --> 00:08:48,988 Speaker 1: watching a first take and sees people come out and 191 00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:50,708 Speaker 1: does that use him as motivation or is he just 192 00:08:50,748 --> 00:08:53,508 Speaker 1: like we don't care. I would say we were programmed 193 00:08:53,548 --> 00:08:55,508 Speaker 1: to use a lot of things as motivation, but not 194 00:08:55,548 --> 00:08:57,748 Speaker 1: really talk about it in the public eye or what 195 00:08:57,868 --> 00:09:00,308 Speaker 1: the media and when you talk about personal life and 196 00:09:00,348 --> 00:09:02,268 Speaker 1: all these different things. We're all human, right, we all 197 00:09:02,268 --> 00:09:05,868 Speaker 1: go through different things. But one statement that he said 198 00:09:05,868 --> 00:09:07,108 Speaker 1: when he when he did one of his show, I 199 00:09:07,108 --> 00:09:09,308 Speaker 1: think it was on Facebook or whatever. He said, if 200 00:09:09,348 --> 00:09:11,988 Speaker 1: you're not willing to sacrifice your life, you'll never beat me, 201 00:09:12,068 --> 00:09:15,468 Speaker 1: and that those words were something that we all went 202 00:09:15,548 --> 00:09:18,148 Speaker 1: by when we started this whole thing. You have to 203 00:09:18,188 --> 00:09:21,388 Speaker 1: sacrifice parts of your life to be great, to be 204 00:09:21,468 --> 00:09:24,708 Speaker 1: consistent and to winning this league and have longevity. And 205 00:09:24,748 --> 00:09:27,268 Speaker 1: I think he's done that. We've seen parts of his 206 00:09:27,348 --> 00:09:30,628 Speaker 1: personal life maybe suffer, and that happens with a lot 207 00:09:30,668 --> 00:09:33,348 Speaker 1: of us, but he's going on, and he's dedicated, and 208 00:09:33,388 --> 00:09:35,668 Speaker 1: he's committed to what he's doing, and he's telling his 209 00:09:35,708 --> 00:09:39,668 Speaker 1: teammates listen, I am committed. Let's everybody get back on 210 00:09:39,708 --> 00:09:42,028 Speaker 1: the same page and hit the reset button. He is 211 00:09:42,028 --> 00:09:44,948 Speaker 1: an incredible study of a human to see what dedication 212 00:09:45,028 --> 00:09:48,748 Speaker 1: looks like over an insane amount of time. Equally as 213 00:09:48,748 --> 00:09:53,108 Speaker 1: dedicated his craft is Ian rapacider. I know he will 214 00:09:53,108 --> 00:09:55,628 Speaker 1: give up nothing before he tells us what exactly we 215 00:09:55,668 --> 00:09:57,348 Speaker 1: need to know. A the top of every show and 216 00:09:57,788 --> 00:10:00,228 Speaker 1: the latest on a couple of quarterbacks in the NFC West. Yeah, 217 00:10:00,268 --> 00:10:03,708 Speaker 1: you are dedicated, just like Tom Brady. Yeah yeah, and 218 00:10:03,748 --> 00:10:06,068 Speaker 1: me and Tom ready a lot of similarities. Let's start 219 00:10:06,108 --> 00:10:08,388 Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray, who popped up on the injury report 220 00:10:08,468 --> 00:10:10,788 Speaker 1: on Wednesday with a hamstring A little bit of a 221 00:10:10,788 --> 00:10:13,148 Speaker 1: surprise there, didn't seem to be eliminating during the game, 222 00:10:13,428 --> 00:10:16,268 Speaker 1: got through the game, got checked out a hamstring injury. 223 00:10:16,268 --> 00:10:18,908 Speaker 1: My understanding is he is considered day to day and 224 00:10:18,908 --> 00:10:22,468 Speaker 1: it's well, it's not something that's really catastrophic, not said recently, 225 00:10:22,468 --> 00:10:24,908 Speaker 1: all right, he's definitely definitely out. It's not good either, 226 00:10:24,948 --> 00:10:27,028 Speaker 1: and for someone who runs around as much as Kyle 227 00:10:27,148 --> 00:10:30,228 Speaker 1: Murray does and relies on his athleticism as much as 228 00:10:30,228 --> 00:10:32,708 Speaker 1: he does. Surely have to wonder does this put his 229 00:10:32,788 --> 00:10:35,388 Speaker 1: status for Sunday in doubt. We'll see if he's able 230 00:10:35,428 --> 00:10:37,828 Speaker 1: to play or to practice today, that will give us 231 00:10:37,868 --> 00:10:40,068 Speaker 1: a good indication about whether or not he's playing. Cole 232 00:10:40,188 --> 00:10:44,028 Speaker 1: McCoy the backup in Arizona. Meanwhile, another I would say 233 00:10:44,068 --> 00:10:48,508 Speaker 1: mild quarterback injury. Surprise, Matthew Stafford put on the putt 234 00:10:48,508 --> 00:10:51,628 Speaker 1: in the NFL's concussion protocol. Actually it came on Tuesday, 235 00:10:51,708 --> 00:10:54,628 Speaker 1: but it was announced on Wednesday, which means there is 236 00:10:54,668 --> 00:10:58,188 Speaker 1: a real chance that Matthew Stafford does not play on Sunday. 237 00:10:58,308 --> 00:11:01,788 Speaker 1: After the game he seemed okay, team trainers and doctors 238 00:11:01,788 --> 00:11:04,628 Speaker 1: and medical staff checked on him Tuesday, saw he had 239 00:11:04,668 --> 00:11:07,388 Speaker 1: some symptoms of a concussion. Was immediately placed in the protocol, 240 00:11:07,668 --> 00:11:10,668 Speaker 1: which means if he practiced this league this week, it's 241 00:11:10,708 --> 00:11:13,148 Speaker 1: going to be extremely limited. We'll see if he's able 242 00:11:13,228 --> 00:11:15,868 Speaker 1: to play and when he gets cleared. But John Walford, 243 00:11:15,948 --> 00:11:18,828 Speaker 1: who the organization really really liked, is the backup there 244 00:11:18,828 --> 00:11:24,508 Speaker 1: for the rams oh Li back on Good Morning Football. 245 00:11:24,748 --> 00:11:27,868 Speaker 1: That is a church that was built between fourteen sixty 246 00:11:27,908 --> 00:11:31,588 Speaker 1: six and fourteen eighty eight is frauen Kirsch. The Onion 247 00:11:31,708 --> 00:11:36,708 Speaker 1: Dome is a very unique architectural design from the fifteenth century. 248 00:11:37,108 --> 00:11:39,428 Speaker 1: What else do you need to know, Peter Schringer, You're 249 00:11:39,508 --> 00:11:41,948 Speaker 1: teaching me everything I got here yesterday and already I'm 250 00:11:41,948 --> 00:11:46,148 Speaker 1: getting a crash course on German culture, German history, but 251 00:11:46,228 --> 00:11:48,628 Speaker 1: also German sayings. And one of the best things that 252 00:11:48,668 --> 00:11:50,828 Speaker 1: we have learned is a phrase. Can I hear it 253 00:11:50,828 --> 00:11:52,668 Speaker 1: from off camera from our dear friends. What's it called 254 00:11:54,188 --> 00:11:58,828 Speaker 1: zaskima guskma, which is roughly translates to you can tell 255 00:11:58,868 --> 00:12:02,148 Speaker 1: that to your grandma, meaning someone doesn't believe a word 256 00:12:02,188 --> 00:12:04,628 Speaker 1: you're saying, you're full of it. Okay, So we thought 257 00:12:04,628 --> 00:12:06,508 Speaker 1: it'd be a fun segment. I wish we could actually 258 00:12:06,508 --> 00:12:10,628 Speaker 1: have the German one more time. What is it zaskimagusma. 259 00:12:11,068 --> 00:12:13,188 Speaker 1: We're gonna be doing that. It's called tell that to 260 00:12:13,228 --> 00:12:15,948 Speaker 1: your grandma. I'm gonna say a statement. You guys either 261 00:12:16,028 --> 00:12:19,948 Speaker 1: say I'm buying it, I believe it that's true or zaskimaguskema, 262 00:12:19,988 --> 00:12:26,308 Speaker 1: which roughly translates to tell roughly loosely. Um, So let's 263 00:12:26,308 --> 00:12:28,388 Speaker 1: start with the teams that are playing here in the 264 00:12:28,428 --> 00:12:30,988 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, which I gotta say, it's one of the 265 00:12:30,988 --> 00:12:33,228 Speaker 1: best stories in football right now, Carol. A lot of 266 00:12:33,228 --> 00:12:35,228 Speaker 1: people were writing these guys off before the season starts, 267 00:12:35,228 --> 00:12:37,148 Speaker 1: and here they are in first place and we're looking 268 00:12:37,148 --> 00:12:39,988 Speaker 1: forward to seeing their special rookie running back, the great 269 00:12:40,068 --> 00:12:43,708 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker third. He's been unbelievable and the dope Walker 270 00:12:43,748 --> 00:12:46,708 Speaker 1: winner right now is going up against a good Bucks defense. 271 00:12:47,308 --> 00:12:49,868 Speaker 1: But of all the rookies, he might be standing out 272 00:12:49,868 --> 00:12:53,068 Speaker 1: the most. So here is the statement, Kenneth Walker the 273 00:12:53,148 --> 00:12:57,068 Speaker 1: third right now is the offensive rookie of the year 274 00:12:57,148 --> 00:12:59,948 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Are you buying it? Or one more time? 275 00:12:59,988 --> 00:13:06,348 Speaker 1: How do we say it? Zoskama Kima. I don't want 276 00:13:06,348 --> 00:13:09,188 Speaker 1: to say that, So I'm going to buy this statement. 277 00:13:09,468 --> 00:13:12,988 Speaker 1: I'm rolling with Kenneth Walker to third, And in doing so, 278 00:13:13,028 --> 00:13:15,068 Speaker 1: I got to give an honorable mention to Bruce Hall 279 00:13:15,108 --> 00:13:17,868 Speaker 1: because this guy was in the runnings. He was probably 280 00:13:17,868 --> 00:13:20,148 Speaker 1: in first place for the New York Jets. He goes 281 00:13:20,148 --> 00:13:22,868 Speaker 1: down with a knee injury. But Kenneth Walker has just 282 00:13:22,948 --> 00:13:26,628 Speaker 1: been amazing his fourth quarter touchdowns, the way he is scoring, 283 00:13:26,948 --> 00:13:30,908 Speaker 1: breaking tackles, fifty sixty yard runs for tds who and 284 00:13:31,068 --> 00:13:34,828 Speaker 1: he is propelling this Seattle Seahawks offense into where they 285 00:13:34,828 --> 00:13:38,028 Speaker 1: are first place in their division. Geno Smith is playing great, 286 00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:40,468 Speaker 1: but the opportunity in the luxury to be able to 287 00:13:40,508 --> 00:13:42,628 Speaker 1: take the snap and just hand it off to this 288 00:13:42,748 --> 00:13:45,948 Speaker 1: young guy and watch him run whild first game he 289 00:13:45,988 --> 00:13:48,028 Speaker 1: goes out there, he breaks off his sixty nine yard 290 00:13:48,068 --> 00:13:50,668 Speaker 1: touchdown and I think everybody on the sidelines were like, Yep, 291 00:13:51,068 --> 00:13:53,548 Speaker 1: we got the guy we need. He's been amazing, He's 292 00:13:53,588 --> 00:13:56,428 Speaker 1: been fun to watch and absolutely he's a favorite for 293 00:13:56,508 --> 00:13:59,508 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year right now. Yeah, I agree. When 294 00:13:59,548 --> 00:14:01,908 Speaker 1: you talk about the Seattle Seahawks, it's like vintage right, 295 00:14:01,988 --> 00:14:06,308 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks running game, great defense and take care of 296 00:14:06,308 --> 00:14:08,308 Speaker 1: the football with Gino Smith, and this guy has been 297 00:14:08,388 --> 00:14:10,988 Speaker 1: running the ball effectively. And when with the way you 298 00:14:10,988 --> 00:14:13,228 Speaker 1: watch him running, you said that Greece Hall was probably 299 00:14:13,228 --> 00:14:15,868 Speaker 1: my leader leading up to this point, but hey, it's 300 00:14:15,908 --> 00:14:18,188 Speaker 1: part of the game, the injury. So Kenneth Walker is 301 00:14:18,228 --> 00:14:20,588 Speaker 1: doing exactly what the Seattle Seahawks need him to do. 302 00:14:20,788 --> 00:14:24,148 Speaker 1: They're winning first and second down, which gives Gino favorable 303 00:14:24,468 --> 00:14:26,788 Speaker 1: you know, thir third downs, and it put him in 304 00:14:26,868 --> 00:14:28,628 Speaker 1: position or not have to throw the ball down the 305 00:14:28,668 --> 00:14:31,788 Speaker 1: field a lot. But Gino is doing that based off 306 00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:33,868 Speaker 1: of this though, because of the play action. So the 307 00:14:33,908 --> 00:14:36,788 Speaker 1: play action is huge in Seattle because they're able to 308 00:14:36,868 --> 00:14:39,908 Speaker 1: run the ball and its power running. This offensive line 309 00:14:39,948 --> 00:14:42,828 Speaker 1: has gotten better there, retooled, they got some some draft picks. 310 00:14:42,828 --> 00:14:45,308 Speaker 1: These guys. How you give an old line confidence you 311 00:14:45,428 --> 00:14:47,068 Speaker 1: run the football, and they've been doing this a lot 312 00:14:47,068 --> 00:14:50,388 Speaker 1: of ways, whether it's zone, whether it's outside, whether it's 313 00:14:50,908 --> 00:14:53,228 Speaker 1: He does really angry and he's the reason why this 314 00:14:53,428 --> 00:14:56,588 Speaker 1: offense because you have to come up as a defender 315 00:14:56,708 --> 00:14:58,508 Speaker 1: and you got a game plan for and that and 316 00:14:58,548 --> 00:15:01,428 Speaker 1: that helps Gino Smith and everything on the outside as well. 317 00:15:01,548 --> 00:15:05,588 Speaker 1: Rickie of the Year positionally is such an interesting award 318 00:15:05,668 --> 00:15:07,508 Speaker 1: to give out because it can be given to a 319 00:15:07,548 --> 00:15:10,468 Speaker 1: guy that, like statistically is off the charts or you 320 00:15:10,588 --> 00:15:13,188 Speaker 1: just exploded onto the scene, and like Damian Pierce is 321 00:15:13,268 --> 00:15:16,148 Speaker 1: right there too. But the Seahawks are winning and it's 322 00:15:16,268 --> 00:15:18,228 Speaker 1: very much at the hand of Kenneth Walker and I 323 00:15:18,228 --> 00:15:20,268 Speaker 1: think Bruce Hall that would have been I think it 324 00:15:20,268 --> 00:15:22,148 Speaker 1: would have been a three headed race, which had been awesome. 325 00:15:22,188 --> 00:15:24,148 Speaker 1: And then I think between the Seahawks and the Jets 326 00:15:24,188 --> 00:15:25,948 Speaker 1: had Bruce Hallsteed and there would have been awesome. But 327 00:15:26,028 --> 00:15:28,788 Speaker 1: the fact that Kenneth Walker earned his starting spot. He 328 00:15:28,868 --> 00:15:31,948 Speaker 1: has been had his hand in so many of these wins. 329 00:15:32,268 --> 00:15:33,948 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna buy into this one. Can I 330 00:15:33,988 --> 00:15:36,988 Speaker 1: say something? They have two starting offensive tackles too, So 331 00:15:37,028 --> 00:15:38,948 Speaker 1: you've got a Lucas who's a third round pick, and 332 00:15:38,988 --> 00:15:41,308 Speaker 1: you've got Charles Crossed their first round pies. It's the 333 00:15:41,348 --> 00:15:43,828 Speaker 1: first time that two rookies have started at both tack 334 00:15:43,908 --> 00:15:46,388 Speaker 1: positions in the NFL through nine games, every single game. 335 00:15:46,468 --> 00:15:50,108 Speaker 1: That's crazy ever ever, and they're protecting Geno Smith. This 336 00:15:50,188 --> 00:15:54,468 Speaker 1: is one of the best rookie classes ever seen. Woo. 337 00:15:54,708 --> 00:15:57,348 Speaker 1: And you've got Kobe Bryant boy a mafe. It is 338 00:15:57,348 --> 00:16:00,028 Speaker 1: one after another. Shout out to everyone in the front 339 00:16:00,068 --> 00:16:03,028 Speaker 1: office and of course Pete Carroll, but no one is 340 00:16:03,028 --> 00:16:06,268 Speaker 1: saying the Grandma line. Now we're all buying it, all right, 341 00:16:06,268 --> 00:16:08,228 Speaker 1: Maybe this time we will all right, So the drama 342 00:16:08,268 --> 00:16:12,148 Speaker 1: between the Seahawks and their former quarterback Russell Wilson could 343 00:16:12,268 --> 00:16:15,068 Speaker 1: added another chapter this week. Yesterday, it was Wilson who 344 00:16:15,108 --> 00:16:17,948 Speaker 1: spoke out when he was asked about Pete Carroll's comments 345 00:16:17,988 --> 00:16:21,788 Speaker 1: about his past resistance to wearing a wristband, and Russell 346 00:16:21,908 --> 00:16:25,988 Speaker 1: said quote, I didn't know winning or losing mattered whether 347 00:16:26,028 --> 00:16:29,428 Speaker 1: you wore a wristband or not. There's been a lot 348 00:16:29,428 --> 00:16:32,908 Speaker 1: of not so subtle digs, mostly from Pete to Russ, 349 00:16:32,988 --> 00:16:36,788 Speaker 1: but Russ finally punched back. Here is the statement, we 350 00:16:36,868 --> 00:16:42,908 Speaker 1: need a whole documentary, a football life type documentary about 351 00:16:42,988 --> 00:16:46,268 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's final years in Seattle and now this first 352 00:16:46,348 --> 00:16:53,108 Speaker 1: year in Denver. Are you buying it or are you zaskmas? 353 00:16:55,468 --> 00:16:59,908 Speaker 1: Tell that drama to your grandma. I don't want football 354 00:16:59,948 --> 00:17:03,588 Speaker 1: life on this. Russ was there, he won, he's gone, 355 00:17:03,868 --> 00:17:06,748 Speaker 1: and now days like somehow due reality show of it, 356 00:17:06,868 --> 00:17:09,148 Speaker 1: have them to hang out in an offseason and see 357 00:17:09,148 --> 00:17:11,948 Speaker 1: what comes up it. For some reason, Pete Carroll continues 358 00:17:11,988 --> 00:17:14,308 Speaker 1: to talk about it. He's doing an interview. They're asking 359 00:17:14,388 --> 00:17:17,828 Speaker 1: him about Geno Smith and how he's adjusted to the offense, 360 00:17:17,828 --> 00:17:20,068 Speaker 1: how he's thriving, and he said, one of the things 361 00:17:20,068 --> 00:17:22,548 Speaker 1: he's doing is he's wearing a wrist band. And there 362 00:17:22,628 --> 00:17:26,868 Speaker 1: was resistance to that, and it's just like the wrist 363 00:17:26,908 --> 00:17:29,588 Speaker 1: band has gotten Geno. So all of these years, the 364 00:17:29,748 --> 00:17:33,148 Speaker 1: judge draft him, the Giants, the Charges, all of these teams, 365 00:17:33,308 --> 00:17:36,588 Speaker 1: he's backing up, he struggling. The only thing they were 366 00:17:36,628 --> 00:17:39,628 Speaker 1: missing was the one twenty five players that they were 367 00:17:39,668 --> 00:17:41,868 Speaker 1: able to put on a wrist band that now Shane 368 00:17:41,868 --> 00:17:43,748 Speaker 1: Walty give him the calls. What do you think about 369 00:17:43,748 --> 00:17:45,868 Speaker 1: Pete taking all these shots at Russ. It's just it's 370 00:17:46,068 --> 00:17:48,468 Speaker 1: so weird because to me, you go back to the 371 00:17:48,508 --> 00:17:51,028 Speaker 1: super Bowl, they lose and they don't hand the ball 372 00:17:51,068 --> 00:17:54,788 Speaker 1: off to Marshawn Lenz, and all the rumors were they 373 00:17:54,828 --> 00:17:57,348 Speaker 1: did this because they want Russ to be the guy 374 00:17:57,788 --> 00:17:59,988 Speaker 1: the front office Pete. They don't want it to be 375 00:18:00,068 --> 00:18:02,948 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. They wanted to be Russ. The players are angry, 376 00:18:03,068 --> 00:18:04,908 Speaker 1: and now we fast forward to where we are now 377 00:18:04,948 --> 00:18:07,468 Speaker 1: and it's just like, no, everybody hated Russ like we 378 00:18:07,548 --> 00:18:09,828 Speaker 1: love Marshawn Lynch and all the other guys, and it 379 00:18:09,948 --> 00:18:11,988 Speaker 1: never was about russid So it was just weird to 380 00:18:12,028 --> 00:18:14,428 Speaker 1: me because before it was just like everybody they're trying 381 00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:16,148 Speaker 1: to build Russ up. They want him to be the guy, 382 00:18:16,348 --> 00:18:18,428 Speaker 1: and I was just like, oh no, we can't stand Russ, 383 00:18:18,428 --> 00:18:19,908 Speaker 1: So I don't I don't get that you just helped 384 00:18:19,908 --> 00:18:22,108 Speaker 1: me write my script. And I'm buying this and the 385 00:18:22,108 --> 00:18:24,308 Speaker 1: reason why I'm buying this because it's so interesting. Right, 386 00:18:24,588 --> 00:18:28,588 Speaker 1: you talk about how this team dismantled, right, how they 387 00:18:28,628 --> 00:18:32,108 Speaker 1: went apart, and that was an important, intricate call on 388 00:18:32,108 --> 00:18:35,148 Speaker 1: that goal line. Do do you hand it off to Marshawn? 389 00:18:35,348 --> 00:18:39,628 Speaker 1: Are we this physical? We're going to get behind the skittles? 390 00:18:39,628 --> 00:18:41,708 Speaker 1: Are we going to get behind the defense? Or how 391 00:18:41,748 --> 00:18:45,228 Speaker 1: do we shift? How do we shift this to Russell's team? Well, 392 00:18:45,308 --> 00:18:47,988 Speaker 1: we put the game in Russell's hands, and I think 393 00:18:48,028 --> 00:18:50,508 Speaker 1: that was an important call going forward. When you look 394 00:18:50,508 --> 00:18:52,308 Speaker 1: at Sherman, when you look at Bennett, when you look 395 00:18:52,308 --> 00:18:55,228 Speaker 1: at a chance for Earl Thomas, all these different outfits 396 00:18:55,268 --> 00:18:57,948 Speaker 1: that's in that locker room. What started to happen, Jason, 397 00:18:57,988 --> 00:19:00,148 Speaker 1: What started to happen? They started to get rid of 398 00:19:00,148 --> 00:19:02,428 Speaker 1: those different guys because maybe they wasn't on the same 399 00:19:02,468 --> 00:19:05,348 Speaker 1: page or they were trying to make a shift. Now 400 00:19:05,588 --> 00:19:08,388 Speaker 1: when when the shift didn't happen, and then when Russell 401 00:19:08,428 --> 00:19:10,428 Speaker 1: started to kind of bark or speak up a little 402 00:19:10,428 --> 00:19:13,668 Speaker 1: bit and he wanted a little more a state and 403 00:19:13,988 --> 00:19:16,788 Speaker 1: what was going on and making some decisions from all 404 00:19:16,788 --> 00:19:19,508 Speaker 1: those states It's like, hey, well we're not doing everything 405 00:19:19,548 --> 00:19:21,428 Speaker 1: that you guys said. We was gonna make this shift 406 00:19:21,668 --> 00:19:24,348 Speaker 1: going into Russell Wilson and put me a part of it. 407 00:19:24,428 --> 00:19:28,828 Speaker 1: So now what happens. Somebody's gotta go, Pete signs an extension, 408 00:19:29,188 --> 00:19:32,828 Speaker 1: Russell goes to a different team. Pete's winning his way 409 00:19:32,948 --> 00:19:35,628 Speaker 1: once again. What happens with young players in college, right, 410 00:19:35,868 --> 00:19:38,988 Speaker 1: they always come in. The message never gets old. You 411 00:19:39,028 --> 00:19:42,068 Speaker 1: always refresh the messa. This is what's happening with the 412 00:19:42,068 --> 00:19:45,068 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. Look at all the young players. Look at 413 00:19:45,068 --> 00:19:47,948 Speaker 1: what's going on at the quarterback position. They're back winning 414 00:19:48,308 --> 00:19:52,188 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll's way, not anybody else's way, Pete Carroll's way. 415 00:19:52,228 --> 00:19:54,868 Speaker 1: And it's with a new cast of characters. I'm buying 416 00:19:54,908 --> 00:19:57,788 Speaker 1: the producer. I want I want to see everything that 417 00:19:57,868 --> 00:20:00,428 Speaker 1: went on behind the scenes. I'm buying it. Carroll looks 418 00:20:00,428 --> 00:20:03,668 Speaker 1: really comfortable and happy coaching right now. He looks carefree. 419 00:20:04,428 --> 00:20:05,788 Speaker 1: I was gonna tell it to my grandma, but now 420 00:20:05,828 --> 00:20:08,308 Speaker 1: I'm now I'm investing in the production that WILLIAMC. Ginnis 421 00:20:08,348 --> 00:20:10,708 Speaker 1: is going to do because you know what it means. 422 00:20:10,748 --> 00:20:12,828 Speaker 1: It means that like these little clips, like right now, 423 00:20:12,828 --> 00:20:14,548 Speaker 1: we're living in this world where everything is going to 424 00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:16,668 Speaker 1: be turned into a documentary eventually, and that means they're 425 00:20:16,668 --> 00:20:18,468 Speaker 1: gonna be clips from Good Morning Football, whether it be 426 00:20:18,508 --> 00:20:21,228 Speaker 1: a Kyle Brand or Peter Schrager and their takes on this, 427 00:20:21,388 --> 00:20:23,708 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be like this intrepid, like zoomed in, 428 00:20:24,228 --> 00:20:26,308 Speaker 1: look at like and here's what was being said about 429 00:20:26,388 --> 00:20:29,348 Speaker 1: that guy. So like, let's just like just drum it 430 00:20:29,348 --> 00:20:31,588 Speaker 1: all up. It'll come out in seven years people. You 431 00:20:31,588 --> 00:20:33,948 Speaker 1: know what the caveat is, though, is that Russell has 432 00:20:33,948 --> 00:20:36,028 Speaker 1: to win in Denver in order for this to be 433 00:20:36,108 --> 00:20:38,548 Speaker 1: like a sellable project. I think because like, you have 434 00:20:38,628 --> 00:20:40,468 Speaker 1: to care about him on the back end here, So 435 00:20:40,508 --> 00:20:42,068 Speaker 1: I think he's got to do some things in Denver 436 00:20:42,428 --> 00:20:43,948 Speaker 1: or people to care about. I just jump in and 437 00:20:43,948 --> 00:20:46,868 Speaker 1: that like that trade, not only did they get Denver's 438 00:20:46,868 --> 00:20:50,028 Speaker 1: first round pick, they have next year's Denver first round pick, 439 00:20:50,068 --> 00:20:52,468 Speaker 1: next year's Nver second round pick. Russell signed a two 440 00:20:52,508 --> 00:20:55,268 Speaker 1: hundred and forty five million dollars Seattle. Right now, they're 441 00:20:55,268 --> 00:20:59,108 Speaker 1: smoking cigars and they're looking back and the guy Shelby 442 00:20:59,108 --> 00:21:01,588 Speaker 1: Harris is contribute fan has been great, and Drew Lock 443 00:21:01,628 --> 00:21:03,468 Speaker 1: has been a really reliable backup in that building, like 444 00:21:03,948 --> 00:21:06,468 Speaker 1: they that might be one of the thoset lopsided trades 445 00:21:06,548 --> 00:21:09,188 Speaker 1: right now. But we're only ten weeks into the NFL season. 446 00:21:09,388 --> 00:21:12,588 Speaker 1: To your point, Jamie Russell can still change the native 447 00:21:12,628 --> 00:21:14,388 Speaker 1: one more time and he's done it before. It's get 448 00:21:14,428 --> 00:21:16,868 Speaker 1: stuck right now, Pete's commentary does kind of feel like 449 00:21:17,508 --> 00:21:19,828 Speaker 1: he is the one that's winning. So he's like, I'm gonna, 450 00:21:20,508 --> 00:21:26,828 Speaker 1: I'm gonna. Yeah, what is it? Zaskimaus? You commit to 451 00:21:26,868 --> 00:21:38,188 Speaker 1: the arts? All right? It sign up? Willy. You got 452 00:21:38,228 --> 00:21:42,788 Speaker 1: this one time for Beneath the Surface, presented by Microsoft Surface. 453 00:21:43,068 --> 00:21:44,748 Speaker 1: We got to pick a matchup that we were most 454 00:21:44,748 --> 00:21:47,308 Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing in we ten and then they 455 00:21:47,308 --> 00:21:48,708 Speaker 1: gave us a little side by side so we can 456 00:21:48,788 --> 00:21:50,508 Speaker 1: plead our case as to why this is the one 457 00:21:50,508 --> 00:21:52,668 Speaker 1: that we're looking forward to most. Willie, you get to 458 00:21:52,708 --> 00:21:54,748 Speaker 1: go first. I get to go first. Man. They didn't 459 00:21:54,788 --> 00:21:56,868 Speaker 1: tell me that in the script, but I am ready 460 00:21:56,868 --> 00:21:59,788 Speaker 1: and I am prepared. And this is a shocker to quarterbacks. Right. 461 00:21:59,828 --> 00:22:02,148 Speaker 1: So we talk about Geno Smith and what are he's 462 00:22:02,188 --> 00:22:05,788 Speaker 1: doing this year? Nobody gave a chance to start to 463 00:22:06,068 --> 00:22:08,388 Speaker 1: let alone be one of the top five quarterbacks in 464 00:22:08,468 --> 00:22:11,068 Speaker 1: every single category. So he's playing at a high level. 465 00:22:11,068 --> 00:22:13,948 Speaker 1: He's taking care of the football, and when his team 466 00:22:13,988 --> 00:22:17,228 Speaker 1: needs him a situational situations, he's coming up big and 467 00:22:17,348 --> 00:22:21,588 Speaker 1: making plays. But it's Tom Brady. And you just say 468 00:22:21,588 --> 00:22:24,788 Speaker 1: the national time and throw back time and going through 469 00:22:24,828 --> 00:22:28,588 Speaker 1: time and come back time last week the fifty five 470 00:22:28,868 --> 00:22:31,948 Speaker 1: comeback of his career, fifty five kind of resemble something. 471 00:22:33,028 --> 00:22:36,628 Speaker 1: I had to throw that in there. But it's Tom Brady, okay. 472 00:22:36,668 --> 00:22:39,228 Speaker 1: And in these big time situations on the big stages. 473 00:22:39,668 --> 00:22:42,308 Speaker 1: Who in here is going to go against Tom, regardless 474 00:22:42,308 --> 00:22:44,388 Speaker 1: of what's going on on the field, off the field, 475 00:22:44,388 --> 00:22:46,948 Speaker 1: regardless of all that stuff. But I will say this, 476 00:22:47,428 --> 00:22:51,068 Speaker 1: the Seattle Sehaks defense is playing at a high level, 477 00:22:51,468 --> 00:22:54,468 Speaker 1: and they have some opportunities because Tom has thrown the 478 00:22:54,508 --> 00:22:57,228 Speaker 1: ball a lot, almost sixty times last week, they will 479 00:22:57,228 --> 00:22:59,708 Speaker 1: have some opportunities. But I'm not going against the go 480 00:23:00,028 --> 00:23:10,068 Speaker 1: I gotta make sure whatever the case, maybe it's perfect. Man. 481 00:23:10,308 --> 00:23:12,348 Speaker 1: I love that how you said with Tom, it doesn't 482 00:23:12,348 --> 00:23:14,588 Speaker 1: matter what's going on because you believe in him, because 483 00:23:14,628 --> 00:23:16,828 Speaker 1: he gets it done. I'm going with two guys. I 484 00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:19,228 Speaker 1: don't care what their stats are. I don't care how 485 00:23:19,268 --> 00:23:23,788 Speaker 1: their teams are doing. DeAndre Hopkins and Jalen Ramsey, these guys, 486 00:23:23,788 --> 00:23:26,508 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, from Draft Day, they've been matched up 487 00:23:26,548 --> 00:23:29,388 Speaker 1: against each other. He was in Houston, he was in Jacksonville. 488 00:23:29,508 --> 00:23:31,508 Speaker 1: They saw each other twice a year. Now he's a 489 00:23:31,588 --> 00:23:33,908 Speaker 1: ram he's a Cardinals twice a year a week. Get 490 00:23:33,948 --> 00:23:37,068 Speaker 1: to see this matchup. Physicality, that's what it's all about. 491 00:23:37,308 --> 00:23:39,948 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey standing at the line of scrimmage and DeAndre 492 00:23:40,028 --> 00:23:43,748 Speaker 1: Hopkins fighting them off, pushing, graving and doing all of that. 493 00:23:43,988 --> 00:23:46,428 Speaker 1: Ramsey this past week talking about the offense. They got 494 00:23:46,508 --> 00:23:48,668 Speaker 1: to score points, They gotta step up. We can't get 495 00:23:48,708 --> 00:23:50,588 Speaker 1: off the field, and then the Bucks are able to 496 00:23:50,588 --> 00:23:52,348 Speaker 1: get back on the field and they end up losing 497 00:23:52,388 --> 00:23:54,788 Speaker 1: that game. When you'd say those things in the media 498 00:23:55,028 --> 00:23:57,028 Speaker 1: is put up or shut up that upcoming week and 499 00:23:57,108 --> 00:23:58,708 Speaker 1: we know he likes it talk, but we know he 500 00:23:58,748 --> 00:24:00,988 Speaker 1: backs it up in a matchup like this. For me, 501 00:24:01,188 --> 00:24:04,308 Speaker 1: a former dB, this is one I love to see 502 00:24:04,508 --> 00:24:06,468 Speaker 1: these two guys who are the best at their position 503 00:24:06,588 --> 00:24:09,268 Speaker 1: in the league going head to head. I'll be tuned 504 00:24:09,268 --> 00:24:12,748 Speaker 1: to him, Jason, will he travel, Will Jayleen Ramsey travel? 505 00:24:12,788 --> 00:24:14,708 Speaker 1: Because you know they're gonna move the opa roil. We've 506 00:24:14,708 --> 00:24:16,828 Speaker 1: seen him travel before. I have no reason to believe 507 00:24:16,868 --> 00:24:20,148 Speaker 1: there's of course he's traveled him and did. And if 508 00:24:20,188 --> 00:24:22,308 Speaker 1: he's not after the first quarter, he's gonna go to 509 00:24:22,348 --> 00:24:25,108 Speaker 1: the coach like, Okay, I want to see you. Yes, 510 00:24:25,428 --> 00:24:30,148 Speaker 1: I am him. He is him, you know he is him. 511 00:24:30,788 --> 00:24:32,348 Speaker 1: I can't even do that line. I'm not going to 512 00:24:32,388 --> 00:24:35,388 Speaker 1: say it. So we talked about before the break about 513 00:24:35,388 --> 00:24:38,868 Speaker 1: how James Cook playing against his brother Dalvin Cook Vikings Bills. 514 00:24:38,868 --> 00:24:41,948 Speaker 1: I love this game. This man was in a Vikings 515 00:24:42,028 --> 00:24:44,588 Speaker 1: purple uniform for the first couple of years of his career. 516 00:24:44,828 --> 00:24:46,868 Speaker 1: In the spring of twenty twenty, he goes to Vikings 517 00:24:46,868 --> 00:24:48,668 Speaker 1: management says, I would like to be traded. This is 518 00:24:48,708 --> 00:24:50,908 Speaker 1: not the right situation for me. This is Stefon Diggs. 519 00:24:51,028 --> 00:24:52,988 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has since come out and said he came 520 00:24:52,988 --> 00:24:55,188 Speaker 1: to me. Diggs did said, I know it wasn't about me. 521 00:24:55,228 --> 00:24:57,708 Speaker 1: He needed a different situation. So they sent him to 522 00:24:57,748 --> 00:24:59,668 Speaker 1: the Bills for a first round pick that year in 523 00:24:59,668 --> 00:25:02,708 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Who did they get Justin Jefferson? Look at that. 524 00:25:02,708 --> 00:25:06,228 Speaker 1: That never happens. The fact they send somebody and immediately 525 00:25:06,308 --> 00:25:08,508 Speaker 1: knew they had to fill the spot. These two on 526 00:25:08,588 --> 00:25:11,348 Speaker 1: the same field together, Stefon Diggs and jeff Justin Jefferson. 527 00:25:11,428 --> 00:25:13,628 Speaker 1: If you love wide receivers, if you want to learn 528 00:25:13,668 --> 00:25:16,228 Speaker 1: about the game of football from a passing offense standpoint, 529 00:25:16,428 --> 00:25:18,188 Speaker 1: this is the game you watch. I don't care if 530 00:25:18,188 --> 00:25:20,788 Speaker 1: it's Josh Allen or case Keenum is Stefon Diggs will 531 00:25:20,828 --> 00:25:23,588 Speaker 1: make anybody look good watching these two receivers go this weekend. 532 00:25:23,588 --> 00:25:26,708 Speaker 1: It's going to be really, really awesome. Such a good point. Historically, 533 00:25:26,748 --> 00:25:29,668 Speaker 1: the Vikings traded away Randy Moss and the next draft 534 00:25:29,708 --> 00:25:31,948 Speaker 1: draft of the guy, Troy Williamson out of South Carolina, 535 00:25:31,948 --> 00:25:34,308 Speaker 1: and they were like, go be Randy Moss. He never 536 00:25:34,428 --> 00:25:38,108 Speaker 1: could fulfill that. Justin Jefferson are, Yeah, you know, I'd 537 00:25:38,148 --> 00:25:41,468 Speaker 1: be better than Stefon Diggs. It's unbelievable what he's doing. 538 00:25:41,948 --> 00:25:45,388 Speaker 1: Um oh, these guys. I like the Jews, I like 539 00:25:45,468 --> 00:25:47,068 Speaker 1: the drama here I am. I'm the guy who's the 540 00:25:47,188 --> 00:25:50,188 Speaker 1: rebel rouser. Okay, So Rogers this week is saying that 541 00:25:50,188 --> 00:25:53,388 Speaker 1: he's texting McCarthy and it's all you know, it's all 542 00:25:53,428 --> 00:25:56,868 Speaker 1: great and McCarthy and McCarthy's crying and he's having such 543 00:25:56,908 --> 00:25:59,828 Speaker 1: a motion that this didn't end pretty, This didn't end 544 00:25:59,828 --> 00:26:01,868 Speaker 1: the way it should have ended. Mike McCarthy is a 545 00:26:01,908 --> 00:26:06,308 Speaker 1: street named after him in Lambeau, got ceremoniously fired mid season. 546 00:26:06,388 --> 00:26:08,388 Speaker 1: Do you know how disrespectful that is to a coach 547 00:26:08,428 --> 00:26:10,868 Speaker 1: who has brought a Super Bowl championship to your building 548 00:26:11,028 --> 00:26:13,788 Speaker 1: to be fired mid season after a loss to Josh 549 00:26:13,908 --> 00:26:17,468 Speaker 1: Rosen in the Cardinals in Lambeau. It was something and 550 00:26:17,548 --> 00:26:20,708 Speaker 1: now Mike, Mike get the last laugh. Mike McCarthy coaching 551 00:26:20,748 --> 00:26:24,108 Speaker 1: against Aaron Rodgers in Lambeau, where he's got a street 552 00:26:24,188 --> 00:26:26,468 Speaker 1: named after him. If the Cowboys win, I'm gonna be 553 00:26:26,468 --> 00:26:28,148 Speaker 1: looking at that guy's face right there. I want to 554 00:26:28,148 --> 00:26:30,588 Speaker 1: see a big old smile. Sometimes it's okay to say, 555 00:26:30,628 --> 00:26:32,228 Speaker 1: you know what, maybe I'm not that bad at coach. 556 00:26:32,228 --> 00:26:35,628 Speaker 1: After all, we'll have something to do with him his departure. 557 00:26:37,068 --> 00:26:39,348 Speaker 1: We'll talk about it. We have to go into the 558 00:26:39,348 --> 00:26:42,468 Speaker 1: therapy session to find that one out. Don't drop the service, Peter, 559 00:26:42,508 --> 00:26:44,108 Speaker 1: it's an intrepid teammate on our show,
