He wins bottom barrel 17 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: betting with some regularity. I mean, I gotta say what 18 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: I hear. He writes for Fox Sports dot Com NFL 19 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 2: dot Com. You see his face. He's a coach, a mentor, prognosticator, 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: does a podcast. His partner just released a mock draft. 21 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 2: So I was like a little kid and I got 22 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 2: that squeal going. But we've got to start with a 23 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 2: special guests because you know, as I'm flying up the 24 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 2: four h five freeway, I heard you guys. You know 25 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 2: it's football and you're fired up trying to find the 26 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 2: diamond in the rough, which we'll do again here a 27 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 2: little bit new audience, new participant in me for these 28 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 2: championship games. But I heard a little bit of Baseball 29 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame chatter and standing for one Carlos Beltran. Yeah, 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 2: so America, welcome our special guest star. That people is 31 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 2: a trash can. It kept him from getting a job 32 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: with the Mets. He was the only guy named and 33 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: called out for the cheating scandal that played baseball. Oh wait, 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 2: it didn't because Rob Manford said, there's a giant rug 35 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 2: over there, sweep it under there. Nobody goes in that 36 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: quarter of the office. So to be consistent, Carlos Beltran 37 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: should be buying a ticket with the rest of the 38 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 2: guys labeled as cheater, as there's far more evidence, hard 39 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: evidence that he cheated the game of baseball than a 40 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: lot of guys that had been left out. 41 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: Well that's the reason why he's not in the Hall 42 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: of Fame. 43 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: Well, but he's got seventy percent of the vote. He 44 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: shouldn't be anywhere near that. 45 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: Because the Johnny cum lately voters don't remember that that 46 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 3: was twenty seventeen to twenty ninety. Well, the old guys 47 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 3: are gone, the new guys are coming in now. 48 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: Rob Parker's still putting in his vote. I told him, 49 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 2: let next year. He's screwed because he only voted for 50 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 2: CC in ECHI row next year. There's not a single 51 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: guy that should be a first time time Hall of Famer. 52 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: So if suddenly he votes Beltran and he gets over, 53 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: I will never let him hear the end of it. 54 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: In these hallways, I'll be wearing a Beltron mask every day, jeez, 55 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 2: as well as I'll be sending Beltron masks to all 56 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: the other voters. 57 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 4: The gas mask. 58 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 2: That's it. Got to give him the gas face. Go 59 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: back to third base back in the day. You like that. 60 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 2: There's a random reference from rap Royalty back in the day. 61 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: But fellas, it's so good to be with you here. 62 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 2: We've already got some Women's English Premier League up on 63 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: the TV. We've got all sorts of highlights and breakdowns 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 2: of Bills and Chiefs, and we're so lucky to get 65 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 2: another one of these. And it started well, and I 66 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: don't know how many people watched, right, ratings are down 67 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: and miserable. I split screen it with Saturday Night's main event, 68 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: because well, I'm a wrestling nerd. But we got the 69 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: twenty fifth regular season game between Lebron and Steph Curry yesterday, 70 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: and we're getting towards the end of him right right now, 71 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: Lebron after yesterday's win, ten point win, he's up thirteen 72 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: to twelve. How about that? Are we seeing him in 73 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 2: the finals again? 74 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 5: No? 75 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: I mean Steph Curry with four and a half minutes 76 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: left in the first half, actually missed a free throw. Guys, 77 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: that's one of those. I'll remember where I was. I 78 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: was sitting on my couch having a beautiful cup of 79 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 2: coffee and eating some salted caramel pudding from the PhD 80 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 2: weight loss thing I'm working with, and it was glorious 81 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: and my kid looked at me like I was nuts, 82 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: because then Steph Curry went oh for eight in the 83 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 2: second half as they lose by ten. But we don't 84 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: get many of these anymore so as much as there's 85 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: a lot of hate watching that may go on today. 86 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: You know, we got bad Blood, which was a great 87 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: song from Taylor Swift that had an all star cast 88 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 2: including Bill's quarterback Josh Allen's fiance Hailey Steinfeld.

Why you know all of this? 174 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: Or a woman that has four or five releases, not 175 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: to say that they hadn't been filmed over five years. 176 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 2: Someone was now bankable. So it gets pushed to the front. 177 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: But it happens in all of the things that we 178 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 2: watch voyeuristically that at some point you become that villain, 179 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: right stealing from Batman in the dark Knight, Right, you 180 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: live long enough to see yourself become the villain. And 181 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes playing games Look, it's great gamesmanship. I thought 182 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 2: we liked the villains. I thought we were all anti 183 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: hero I just celebrated seventeen years of breaking bad guys, 184 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 2: aren't we in the anti heroes movies? 185 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 4: Still are? 186 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: We move it on, Andy, I like a good villain. 187 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 3: Part of the problem is not the villain as much 188 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 3: as just we're tired of seeing the same faces. And 189 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 3: I'll tell you something, I think a lot of the 190 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: problem is also they're tired of seeing Taylor Swift every 191 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: time they watch these games with the Kansas City Chiefs. 192 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 3: They could take a shot up to the private box 193 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 3: where she's sitting. 194 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: It doesn't bother me, I promise you. 195 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 3: But there are people that's, oh Taylor Swift again, you know, 196 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 3: the football junkies. 197 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: They didn't want to see that. That's the deal. 198 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: Can I walk door to door and give him all hugs, Bucky? 199 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 2: Because she accounts for about thirty seconds of a three 200 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: and a half hour presentation. 201 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 5: I mean it, it's so rediculo all the it, right, 202 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 5: so all of it when it comes to that, like 203 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 5: people are wanting, like, here's the thing, like we talked 204 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 5: about in the country, right, we say we appreciate greatness 205 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 5: and excellence in those things, but as soon as we 206 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 5: encounter that, we hate on it. We hate Tom Brady, 207 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 5: we hate the Patriots when they were good. 208 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 4: We now hate the kan City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes 209 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,599 Speaker 4: and everyone arounds him, annoys. 210 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 5: Us, Travis Kelce and his girlfriend, Like we don't like 211 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 5: the Swifties. 212 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 4: And all of that. 213 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 5: And we claim that we love an underdog, but guess 214 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 5: what underdog stories don't do well for us because we 215 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 5: say we like it and then we see him on 216 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 5: the big stage and then it's never what we want 217 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 5: it to be. It is rare that the Rocky ball 218 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 5: Boys story comes to life. 219 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 4: It just doesn't happen. 220 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 5: And so to me, I respect that the Kancity Chiefs 221 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 5: have been able to consistently win and win and win 222 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 5: because it's so hard to do. It's so hard to 223 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 5: dominate time after time after time, and they've been able 224 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 5: to do it. 225 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 4: So hats off to them. Hope they continue. 226 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 3: Well, you appreciate the winning buck we do, but you 227 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 3: know why we don't. Don't do but not for a 228 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: long time. You win, that's good, move on, move on. 229 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 3: We don't want to see They don't want dynasties. 230 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: That's the problem, is it, because like everything else we do, 231 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: watching winners all right, term limits. 232 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 4: I like that, Well, turn limits on winning. Can't win 233 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 4: too much because then it's not fair to everybody. 234 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 3: You're right now, This year, I would have to say 235 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 3: the Detroit Lions were almost like America's team. Everybody's pulling 236 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 3: for the Detroit Lions. 237 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: They lost. 238 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 3: They would have loved it if they would have won. 239 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: This year, they would have went to the Super Bowl 240 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 3: and won, and next year they'd be kind of threatened 241 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 3: to win again. Then it's like, oh, okay, you've been there, 242 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: done that. Let's look at somebody else. 243 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 2: Football guys, got the man. 244 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 4: What we're saying, Listen to what we're saying. In a way, 245 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: we're saying we. 246 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 5: Want we wanted to be nice and equitable that everyone 247 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 5: has an opportunity to win the trophy. 248 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: That's how you have to set up. 249 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: No, but we're not talking about what the league wants. 250 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 4: We're talking about what the people want with. 251 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 5: The people on that, which is crazy, like, no, we 252 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 5: should respect winners and uh, if guys and teams are 253 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 5: able to win and win consistently, we should respect and 254 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 5: applot that tell your team to do better. 255 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 2: I get tweets regularly whenever we get down the Chiefs 256 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 2: Highway Smith and I and certainly on this show at 257 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: Swollen Dome, at Andy Furman FSR, at Bucky Brooks. You 258 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: want to get in at Fox Sports Radio all along 259 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: the way, it's the you hate us because you ain't 260 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: us right, It's the go figure out how to play 261 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: within the margins. Because the one thing that the Chiefs 262 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: don't do just like the Bills all year long. Right, 263 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: I heard you, Bucky. You brought up the turnover differential. 264 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 2: It's something we've highlighted on the show a lot because 265 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 2: that is winning football. Win the trenches, don't turn the 266 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 2: ball over. That's it, that is winning football. I'll take 267 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 2: my consultant fee and I literally had to do two 268 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 2: minutes of work before grabbing a sandwich, a coke and 269 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 2: walking out the door. That's it. And so many teams. 270 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 2: How often do we come on this show on Sundays 271 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 2: or we're on during the week and we're talking about 272 00:12:54,200 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 2: bad coaching decisions, clock management, stupid penalties, bad just bad 273 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: coaching decisions, personnel or whatever the case may be. Play calls, 274 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: fourth down, aggressiveness, whatever. Chiefs don't do that. They're buttoned 275 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: up and they play within the margins. So it's like 276 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: those old Patriots, and we've made this comparison before that 277 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 2: you got to go and take it from them because 278 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: if it's late, if it's late, they're gonna come and 279 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 2: steal your girlfriend. That's it. 280 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: It's done, and you have to say that the Bills 281 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: are going to take it from them. Today. 282 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 3: You picked Buffalo, right, Yeah, I did before the year, 283 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 3: and I want to know why you would pick that. 284 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 3: Was it because you just hated Kansas City winning so much? 285 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: No hat to No, No, not at all, not at all, 286 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 3: because Diggs. I thought I thought they were finished. Really 287 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 3: there was a big loss for them. Well, obviously they 288 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,479 Speaker 3: didn't work out, though. 289 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 2: Some of it goes down to an age old rule 290 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: in our show of We Don't Really Stand on chalk right. 291 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: Coming into the year, a lot of questions on Philly 292 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: we love the roster right, and that they'd get back 293 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: to form. And this is where I get into my 294 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, Eric Henry, and Josh Jacob's arguments for folks, 295 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: they were already really good playoff teams. I'll drop my 296 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: microphone and walk off there. But it's the idea that 297 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 2: we got to come off the pack and everybody jumped 298 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 2: on board the Jets, so that was overweighted. I didn't 299 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 2: believe that that was gonna work. So in division, man, 300 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: the Dolphins are what they are. Didn't expect that Tua 301 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: would get through his season, and once again he didn't, 302 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 2: And then the Patriots were in complete rebuild mode. Like 303 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: the quarterback, A couple of good component parts, but overall 304 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: a disaster. And you know, then we get into the 305 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: argument of did you get done wrong with a one 306 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 2: and done scenario and now podcasters claiming that Vrabel had 307 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 2: the job as early as the first week of December, 308 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: So a little bit of dirty pool and then you know, 309 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: stuff swirling behind the scenes that we'll see if it 310 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: fleshes itself out. But looking at Josh Allen and what 311 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: he's been figuring Cook would be better. They drafted keon Coleman. 312 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 2: Should they have drafted Worthy and not done that? T sure, 313 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 2: but Coleman's come up a couple times big. You got 314 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 2: the tight ends. And defensively, I think Bucky you called 315 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 2: them the blue collar lunch pail guys, and that's what 316 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 2: they do. They get after it. They remind me, in 317 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 2: some ways, without the big personalities and a Super Bowl shuffle, 318 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 2: of the way the Bears played all those years ago, 319 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 2: or more specifically maybe the year that they went with 320 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: Rex Grossman. And obviously they have a much better quarterback 321 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 2: than Rex Grossman, but just that idea that your defense 322 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: is opportunistic, you don't give up things in the margins. 323 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 2: So yeah, and I went off the pace and I 324 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 2: took them. 325 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 5: You know, it's funny because in a way, these teams 326 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 5: are very similar. 327 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 4: We don't want to acknowledge it, but the Kansaity Chiefs 328 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 4: are Floyd maywork Weather. 329 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 5: Right, everyone wanted Floyd Mayweather to go and knock people out. 330 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 5: But the version of the Chiefs that we're seeing is 331 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 5: the one that wins on points, and we grow frustrated 332 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 5: in seeing them win because it's not the pizazz the 333 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 5: sizzle that we once saw them exhibit when they had 334 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 5: Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelcey was younger and those things. 335 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 5: Much like pretty boy Floyd before it became money made Weather. 336 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 5: That's what Kansas City is, whereas the Buffalo Bills are a. 337 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: Fighter that they gonna win on points. They're gonna win 338 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 4: with the jaff. 339 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 5: They really don't have knockout power, so they just wait 340 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 5: for you to falter and then they're the ultimate counterpuncture. Well, 341 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 5: today we get a chance to see these teams and 342 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 5: the biggest fight that we'll see. And the first go round, 343 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 5: Kansas City was still doing their regular season things since 344 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 5: that game though, they were going very conservative on offense. 345 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 5: They don't turn it over. They wait for the other 346 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 5: team to implode and then they win a variety of ways, 347 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 5: block field goal, pump return, whatever it takes, they win. 348 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 5: I just wonder do the Buffalo Bills have enough offense 349 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 5: to be able to score points to force Kansas City 350 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 5: out of that shell game that they're playing. And I 351 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 5: just don't know if they can get it done because 352 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 5: talent normally matters in the postseason. And when you look 353 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 5: at their offense, is Josh Allen and the who? Because 354 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 5: I don't know who else is going to tell and 355 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 5: do it, but that's what it is. 356 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 4: He's going to have to be Superman for them to win. 357 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: I disagree a little bit what you're saying. I tell 358 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: you why. 359 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that the general public would like to 360 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 3: see Kansas City lose, not because they're dominating, not because 361 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 3: they've had. 362 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: Some sort of a mini streak going on the third 363 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: straight Super Bowl. Perhaps. 364 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 3: I think they want them to lose, but they think 365 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 3: they're getting aided by the officials. That's why this whole 366 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 3: story never would have come up. Yeah, we don't root 367 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 3: for the villain, and I think every sport needs a villain. 368 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 3: Every sport needs an individual villain and a team villain. 369 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 3: The Yankees for years with villains, Okay, the Montreal Canadians, 370 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: the Boston Celtics, people came to see them lose because 371 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 3: they dominated, but they always respected the fact that they 372 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 3: were that good. That's why they rooted against them. They 373 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 3: want the home team to beat that team. But with 374 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 3: the Kansas City Chiefs, they think everybody thinks to have 375 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 3: a crutch, and the crutch of the officiating, and honestly, 376 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 3: it's almost gotten out of control, it really has. 377 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: With the officiating garbage. 378 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 2: Well, that narrative certainly took off. And look it goes 379 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 2: back to you again. We'd all love our teams to 380 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 2: be able to play within those margins. A little bit 381 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: of jealousy, a little bit of consistency. How you spend 382 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 2: the money. Right out here in Los Angeles, we've been 383 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 2: calling even before showhand Tani showed up in the Los Angeles, 384 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: we were already calling them the new evil Empire Smith 385 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 2: and I. And look what they've done since you know 386 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 2: what you don't like it tell your team to spend 387 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: some money, you know, putting up a big graft about 388 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 2: how you're gonna reduce your concessions price. That's not it. 389 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,239 Speaker 2: That's it. That's not it. It's you know what we 390 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: call math, It's math. Hey, the under is hit ten 391 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: and ten and three to the under with Cleayton Blakeman 392 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 2: and his refereeing crew in playoff games all time. But 393 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 2: I think you'll enjoy this one, fellas, since the refereeing 394 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 2: has been the hot topic on the side and what 395 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 2: are we gonna get? They were tied for the most 396 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: penalty flags thrown in twenty twenty four with two hundred 397 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 2: and fifty two. Craig Rollstad and their crew, Blakeman and 398 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: their crew two hundred and fifty two. Next tour Bird 399 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 2: at two thirty five. Then you got a couple of 400 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 2: two thirty one, and then it starts to drop off precipitously. 401 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: And then jeeves the league offensive holding penalties. 402 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 403 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 5: See, everyone thinks that the fix is in, like the 404 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 5: league is orchestrating this this stuff. 405 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 4: It's not. 406 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 5: It's everyone is emotional. Everyone's in their feelings because they 407 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 5: can't beat them. Look, the only way that I can 408 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 5: equate being a Carolina fan, Carolina basketball fan, the Chiefs 409 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 5: are like Duke. Right when Duke is really good in 410 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 5: their heyday, there's this sense that Duke going all the 411 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 5: way back, like JJ Reddick, they always got the calls 412 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 5: right whenever it was tight. It just appears that the 413 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 5: officials like will give a call and it would be 414 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 5: something different. But what really happens is they're good and 415 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 5: we're just sitting there hanging on to this notion that 416 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 5: the referees are cheating for them, as opposed to really 417 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 5: acknowledging their greatness and not being able to appreciate how 418 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 5: good they are or whatever it is they're doing to win. 419 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: How foolish does it even think the referees would be 420 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 3: cheating for them? You know, I've heard stories this week 421 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 3: saying that, well, the league is dictating to the officials 422 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 3: to make sure Kansas City gets in the finals in 423 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. Come on, really get a life, please, 424 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 3: because it all goes back to gambling. I'm telling you 425 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 3: a lot of it goes back to the gambling. 426 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: Right now. It's out of control. 427 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 2: Well, but that's just it, right. You get a bunch 428 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: of cacophony of voices when a guy runs out of 429 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 2: the back of the end zone in the final seconds 430 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 2: of a game for a safety. You get because depending 431 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: on where you got in on the line, plenty of 432 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: people still won right that button. You know you look 433 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 2: at the land. 434 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: Happened last night University of sits down. 435 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 3: He was playing Brigham Young in basketball, okay, and they 436 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 3: lost by thirty. Guy and Brigham Young at the b 437 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 3: puts up a three pointer. All right, he made it. 438 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 3: The coach apologized to the Cincinnati coach why he did it. 439 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 3: The good news is for the fans, they got, like 440 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 3: Jimmy Johns free his sandwiches after the game because they 441 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 3: got a certain amount of points. Maybe that's why he's 442 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 3: in it. I don't know why he did it, but 443 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 3: maybe there was a point spurre on the guy. I 444 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 3: don't look, I didn't see the spread between Brigham Young 445 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 3: and you. 446 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 2: See last night now, But now you got me interested. 447 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 3: Okay, But why would a guy take a three at 448 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 3: the buzzer and he made it? 449 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 2: Was he a guy that normally doesn't play then he 450 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 2: wants to show up in a box? 451 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: Could be right. 452 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 2: It's like running your fifth, fifth string running back. You 453 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 2: can walk off the field. You don't walk off the 454 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 2: field before the buzzer sounds. I'm scoring on your ass. 455 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 3: All that happened years ago when when Cincinnati I went 456 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: to the game with May he rest in peace. Joe 457 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 3: Paterna when Penn State played Cincinnatian football way back when 458 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 3: and they beat him sixty two nothing, and there was 459 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 3: like a lot of complaints that why did you run 460 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 3: up the score? And Joe p said, look, I didn't 461 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 3: run up the score. I had my third third stringers 462 00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 3: in there, and they want to show me what they 463 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 3: could do because they have a play wow rings in 464 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 3: there in the second quarter. 465 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 2: Right nowadays, I mean, there's a lot of money on 466 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 2: the line, right, you get to be seen.

Gentlemen, A 521 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 2: wild woolye week in the coaching carousel. Some of the 522 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 2: hires seem like they were done three months ago. That 523 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 2: national title game between Ohio State and Notre Dame seems 524 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 2: like it was done a month ago. There's just been 525 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: so much information and weaving all the way through, whether 526 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 2: it's the Hall of Fame, whether it's you know, the 527 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 2: nil talk, and then obviously leading up to these champmionship games, 528 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 2: but the coaching carousel ran am uck, and on Friday 529 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 2: we got what you would call in the business a 530 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 2: news dump. Yes it was expected, but there's one Hall 531 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: of Fame receiver that certainly was not happy about it. 532 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 6: Two NFC East teams in NFC Championship Game being played tomorrow, 533 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 6: our eyes on the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Commanders, 534 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 6: our enemies on all fronts, and a hole in a 535 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 6: position that we haven't held in thirty years. 536 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, the longest drought by any NFC East team, any 537 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 7: NFC team period, thirty years. 538 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 8: We're losing ground on this NFC right Well, don't we 539 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 8: know who's going to be in the NFC Championship game. 540 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 8: We haven't been there in thirty years. 541 00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 4: Let me just break down what. 542 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 8: That means to be, because when people said he said, 543 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 8: O hum ohum o hum, but no ohumd that that's 544 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 8: thirty damn years. 545 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 4: Forty years is a generation. 546 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: We got thirty years right here right now. It was 547 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: critical mass. 548 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 6: It was time to bring somebody in that to shape 549 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 6: things up and. 550 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 8: Grab this last leg off Cowboy's nature. 551 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 2: Now the question becomes who would be that coach? Obviously 552 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: Brian Schottenheimer gets the job. They fixed the glitch, whatever 553 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: you believe about the end days of Mike McCarthy. They 554 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: played hard, down the stretch, won some games, did some things. 555 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 2: You got continuity. He was an analyst before he became 556 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator. So some of that makes sense for Shottenheimer, 557 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: But we get these old narratives for Jerry Jones that 558 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: pop up once again. Fellas. I was curious for our 559 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: nationwide audience that may have missed your conversations on this 560 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 2: a little bit earlier. Andy, what do you think should 561 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 2: they have made a bigger splash or should Jerry Jones 562 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 2: have hired Michael That was his voice. 563 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: Well, I don't think you can make a bigger slash. 564 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 3: I don't know what Marty Miles, Marty Shott, what Brian 565 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 3: Schott namerged one in the NFL to create a bigger splash. 566 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 3: What has he done. I don't think it's a major 567 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 3: difference or anything. I don't think you're bettering yourself without 568 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy. I like Mike McCarthy. He's got a better 569 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 3: track record. I think he'd get the job done. He 570 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 3: had injuries, he had Dak Prescott on the shelf. I 571 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 3: think it was a foolish move and I don't know 572 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 3: why it was done. I know he was internal because 573 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 3: he was on the offensive side of the football. But still, 574 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 3: in all I don't see any change. I don't think 575 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 3: he's going to elevate that team to another level. 576 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: I just don't. He's not a Kyle Shanahan offensive guy. 577 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 5: Well, I don't know about all of that in terms 578 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 5: of like the play calling those things, because being a 579 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 5: head coach has a little to do it being a 580 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 5: play caller. 581 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 4: But I will say he said it to any of his. 582 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 5: Dad, who was one of only eight coaches with two 583 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 5: hundred wins, if he learned anything from Marty Schottenheimer in 584 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 5: terms of playing Marty ball, which is we've talked about 585 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 5: the two teams that are remaining in the AFC, how 586 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 5: they take care of the ball, they don't turn it over, 587 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 5: they are opportunistic on the defensive side of the ball, 588 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 5: and it's led to wins. If he does the same 589 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 5: thing in Dallas, he's going to win. Really, it's not 590 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 5: about making these sizzle plays. 591 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 4: In those things. 592 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 5: It's doing the ordinary things exceptionally well and it's making 593 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 5: the fewest mistakes to win games. That's what his dad preached, 594 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,479 Speaker 5: and I'm sure Brian understands that. And just because then, 595 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 5: I'll use Mike Rabel as an example. Mike Rabel was 596 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 5: a middle of the road defensive coordinator for Houston Texans 597 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 5: when he got the job the head job for the 598 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 5: Tennessee Titans, and at the time it was kind of crazy, like, man, 599 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 5: he wasn't even great as a coordinator, but he ended 600 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 5: up becoming a really good head coach. I think Brian 601 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 5: Schottenheimer has the potential to be able to do that. 602 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 4: He understands what it's supposed to look like. 603 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 5: He's been around great coaches throughout his time as a 604 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 5: NFL assistant. He has plenty of experience twenty four years 605 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 5: on the sideline at the NFL level, fourteen of those coordinator, 606 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 5: I think he understands how to get it, and more importantly, 607 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 5: his relationship with the higher ups, their collaboration, their chemistry, 608 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 5: their ability to work together, gives him an opportunity to 609 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 5: be successful. So I wouldn't dismiss the idea of him 610 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 5: being successful, even though it's not the sexy pick that 611 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 5: bren Downson was with the Chicago Bears. 612 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: I hear what you say, but is it a better 613 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: move than getting rid of Mike McCarthy. Would it be 614 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: better off keeping McCarthy. 615 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 5: I mean, it's fine, but like, let's be real, and 616 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 5: I love Mike McCarthy. I think you did a really 617 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 5: good job winning twelve games three straight years, but people 618 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 5: are judged on your playoff success, right, So there's all 619 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 5: this future all that goes to Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh, 620 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 5: not because he hasn't had a losing season, but because 621 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 5: they haven't won a playoff game. 622 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 2: It's happened with the Caliboy now. 623 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, and so for the Cowboys, they haven't won playoff games. 624 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 5: And so if you're Brian Schottenheimer and if you're able 625 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 5: to just win a playoff game in advance to the 626 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 5: next round, you're better than your predecessor. Can he do that? 627 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 5: Dak Prescott to come there. They have a good relationship. 628 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 5: He was in Seattle with Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll. 629 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 4: He saw how it's done there. 630 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 5: I wouldn't dismiss it. And just because you don't win 631 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 5: the sizzle of the press conference doesn't mean that you 632 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 5: won't be a good coach. Look at Dan Cambell and 633 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 5: how we laughed and stick it when he talked about 634 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 5: kneecaps and ankles and biting and all that other crazy stuff. 635 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 4: He spewed out his first. 636 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: Press Well, look at one of the guys up there today, 637 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 2: Coach Bucky, I mean Dan Quinn. The last time before 638 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 2: he became a head coach for Washington, he got run 639 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 2: off the field by the Green Bay Packers that gave 640 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 2: up a one fifty eight point three rating. And now 641 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 2: he's a head coach. They've gotten a culture together. How 642 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 2: about you guys enjoying the stories about Dan Snyder being 643 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 2: you know, really kicked off. 644 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: I love it, Oh, I love it. 645 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 2: And there's a couple of guys. Former executive Jason Wright 646 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 2: go Katz. He was at a bar last week. He 647 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 2: immediately posted avocate we were building and to see this 648 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 2: like tears in his eyes, like there's just that pride. 649 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: I was hearing from my friends who had been Washington 650 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 2: fans for as long as I've known him and been 651 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 2: in this business, you know, showing me pictures of them 652 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: when they were six years old, wearing their old monk 653 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: jerseys and all of those things. 654 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: But who doesn't want to Who doesn't want an operation 655 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 3: to fail? Once you get fired, it's normal. Look, I'm 656 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 3: not a fan of Dance Snightder. I didn't like the 657 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 3: fact that he was hesitant about changing the name of 658 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: the Redskins. I think it was the wrong thing to do. 659 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 3: They eventually did it. But the point is that he 660 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 3: was honest in the sense that, hey, look you got 661 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 3: rid of me. That the heck would I to see 662 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:38,959 Speaker 3: the team go down the tubes? That's the way it is. 663 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 3: And I mentioned this to Bucky Doug Peterson was fired 664 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 3: as Koja Jacksonville. You don't think he wants to see 665 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 3: that team lose? Now, of course he does. He don't 666 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 3: never say it. That's why credit Dance Snyder. He went 667 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 3: public and said it. 668 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 5: I mean, I appreciate it. I appreciate him saying it. 669 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 5: Like we all are kind of bitter, Like you never 670 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 5: want to feel like you were a disposable part. 671 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 4: Of the operation. 672 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 5: We all like to have enough self esteem to think 673 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 5: that we're very valuable commodities and Dan Snyder is sitting 674 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 5: here looking like, Man, I cannot believe after all these years, 675 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 5: they decide now that they're going to be a winning team. 676 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 4: Right and after. 677 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 5: Penny pinching and doing all the other stuff that he did, 678 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 5: and they're notorious for being huge penny pinchers, the Commanders 679 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 5: are good. 680 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 4: And it's sad. 681 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 5: One of the researchers that I work with at NFL Network, 682 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 5: I guess he was born in ninety three. He said, 683 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 5: I've never seen my team be a good team. This 684 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 5: is the first time in my lifetime. And I'm looking 685 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 5: at him, like, what are you talking about? Like the 686 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 5: Redskins used to dominate, but I forgot they haven't been 687 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 5: a dominant team since the nineties. The Cowboys there, yeah, yeah, 688 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 5: so it's more of a Folsey the only And I'm 689 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 5: gonna say this, and I know, like when we talk 690 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 5: about the previous logo and nickname of the Commanders is 691 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 5: politically incorrect, but to me, there is something about them 692 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 5: being good and watching I would say the Cousin uniforms, right, 693 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 5: because they're trying to wear the gold pant, the gold pant, 694 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 5: the yellow pants and all that. But I'm just like, 695 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 5: there's a part of me just like, can we just 696 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 5: go back? Like, can we just go back to the 697 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 5: old UNI. We can change the logo so the headdress 698 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 5: and stuff is not there, but instead of dancing with it, 699 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 5: can we just go all the way back to what 700 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 5: it used to look like? Because to me, that's that's 701 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 5: the part of Washington that I miss. I missed him 702 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 5: singing the chance httr, I miss all of it. 703 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 2: Good John. 704 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 5: I know we can't wax weet it or whatever, and 705 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 5: I know that we've evolved in those things, but there's 706 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 5: a part of me that wishes they connect with the 707 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 5: old fan base because those things, to me, are so 708 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 5: nostalgic and traditionish. 709 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, let me go back to the country situation today, 710 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 3: because you talk about like a bucket board of the 711 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 3: fact that Mike Tomin's getting some heat right now on 712 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 3: a playoff game. You know that's great when the fan 713 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 3: base is so demanding. I live in the Cincinnati area. 714 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 3: They haven't made the playoffs in two years, and it's 715 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: ho hum. No one cares. No one cares, the fans care. 716 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 3: All right, what did the ownership do? They fired Louis Anarumo, 717 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 3: the defensive coordinator, and the press cover. 718 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Travis Kelcey on his podcast had a lot of 719 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 2: big four letter words and Jeron's that he wanted to 720 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 2: get on that because that's kind of where I want 721 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: to go as we go. Did we find a savior 722 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,959 Speaker 2: for a team? My team in this? And I also 723 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 2: want to since you brought up the Bengals, Andy, I 724 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 2: want to talk about the worst term in sports hashtag 725 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 2: bad words at Swollen Dome, at Andy Furman FSR, at 726 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks. We'll tell you what that's all about next 727 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio. Hey, welcome back in Fox 728 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, Fox Football Sunday, Andy Furman, Bucky Brooks and 729 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: me Mike Carmon. As we continue, guys, very excited right 730 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,439 Speaker 2: in Chicago. And they might as well have a ticker 731 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 2: tape parade for Ben Johnson. Already ain't all the right 732 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 2: things in the media. You got Caleb Williams dressing like 733 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 2: he's an neo in the matrix, all of these things. 734 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 2: It's now too big to fail in Chicago. They tell me, Andy, 735 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 2: tell me why this is the change. 736 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 3: I think they think he's an offensive genius and they 737 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 3: got the quarterback of the future. 738 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: So let's see what happens over there. 739 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 3: But look, I think it's great when they have a 740 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 3: coach or they make a hire that gets the community 741 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 3: and the fan base excited. 742 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: That's important. It really is. 743 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 3: To some extent that may be more important than actually 744 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 3: winning when the season starts, because you want people with 745 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 3: to buy tickets and get all excited, to get hyped up. 746 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 3: The media gets hyped up. So I think that's the 747 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 3: name of the game right there. That's what they did. 748 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they certainly went out to win. The 749 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 5: presser right, sure, this is a date and those things 750 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 5: and all of that stuff. 751 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 4: And he came in and look, he was a. 752 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 5: Rousing success, right, energized the building immediately. 753 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 4: He talked about coach and what we got to do 754 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 4: to serve the players. 755 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 5: Even took a jab at the Green Bay Packers, which 756 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 5: I would say is not a wise one, because now 757 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 5: you've given them fodder, so there'd be a lot of energy. 758 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 5: And we'll hear the press or the introductory press conference 759 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 5: quotes again when they play the Packers. But look, on 760 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 5: the surface, it looks great. But I'll say this and 761 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 5: I'll say this about it every time. We never know 762 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 5: how good a head coach is. Going to be until 763 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 5: he is a head coach. Yeah, there's no indicator, So 764 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,240 Speaker 5: we'll see how he handles it. And with the quarterback, 765 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 5: I'll say the same thing Caleb Williams and those things. 766 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 5: But what I can tell you about Ben Johnson, Ben 767 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 5: Johnson coach is hard and so the feel good unless 768 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 5: coach kayleb Williams with a feather, that's not what he's getting. 769 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 5: He's getting a hard nosed coach when it comes to 770 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 5: the quarterback, and we will see how he responds to that. 771 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,439 Speaker 5: We'll see in significant if he can get the best 772 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 5: performance out of the number one overall pick. 773 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 2: Still, some all those comparisons to Jaden Daniels pushed aside 774 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 2: because they got their guy all right now, Bears fans 775 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 2: and pundits, you can't complain. This is the guy you 776 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 2: stumped for and you used every metric to do. They 777 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 2: make the big splash that in thirteen million. 778 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 4: Don't you don't sound really excited about it? 779 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 2: Well, it's infrastructure time, right, It's like and I like 780 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: the way he talked about it. But you know, as 781 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 2: my buddy Todd Furman, who the Bet the Board podcast, 782 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 2: joins Jason and I every every week, and he's on 783 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 2: with Arnie and playing on Sunday nights wrapping stuff up. 784 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 2: He goes he doesn't get to bring on on Ross 785 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 2: Saint Brown. He doesn't have a quarterback who's really good 786 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 2: at the timing stuff right now like Jared Goff became, 787 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 2: and that offensive line doesn't come. So that's that's kind 788 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 2: of where I'm at. A lot lot of build you, 789 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 2: and I'll continue chopping this up because you've got to 790 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 2: make me feel better. That needs a Cubs fan. But 791 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 2: we'll move on from that. And yes we are hearing 792 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 2: the tire rag dot com studios. I mentioned the term 793 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 2: I hate more than anything else in our sporting universe 794 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 2: is quote unquote house money. There is no such thing. 795 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 2: And Andy Brown up the Cincinnati Bengals as the greatest example. 796 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 2: And I've told this story on Fox Sports Radio and 797 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 2: in parties and dinners a million times. I remember everybody 798 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 2: leaving that Super Bowl against the Rams. It's the era 799 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 2: of good times. We're gonna keep running back there every year. 800 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 2: House money. No no, no, no, no, you got them 801 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 2: fabulous run. 802 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:19,479 Speaker 4: Now. 803 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 2: Ask Dan Marino about house money. Oh, he was only 804 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: in a second year. Ask Jim Kelly about house money. 805 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 2: If we want to go to the Bills or Thurman, Thomas, 806 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 2: Andre Reid and all those other guys, even Aaron Rodgers. Right, 807 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 2: you got one, yeah, right, Mike Tomlin, Mike McCarthy, John Harbaugh, 808 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 2: all these guys, you got one. And that's a long 809 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 2: time ago. So the term house money to me is 810 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 2: just foolhardy trying to convince yourself that everything going forward 811 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 2: you will have no obstacles and you're following down the 812 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: yellow brick road to Oz where the wizard will actually 813 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:54,760 Speaker 2: be your friend. 814 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,240 Speaker 3: There's another turn that goes hand in hand with house money. 815 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 3: It's culture. And I can't stay in the big list bucket, 816 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 3: you know as well as I do. You know they 817 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 3: say culture can change the cold. No, get the personnel. 818 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 3: I don't care if they don't talk to one another. 819 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:08,240 Speaker 3: You've got great players. 820 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: That's a hot take. In the final minutes, we need 821 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 2: we want to stay on for another fifteen minutes. 822 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: We are family in Pittsburgh. Remember that, you know. I 823 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 3: don't think cold is that big of a deal. 824 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: Start at the field. 825 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 3: They got the job, do your job, Go out there 826 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:25,879 Speaker 3: and go your own way. 827 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: I don't care. 828 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 2: Wow, that's spicy. Wow. I should have let the show. 829 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,280 Speaker 1: Than trash with you guys. 830 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 2: Wow, you're the best. Hey, Andy, who'd you pick for today? 831 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 5: Oh? 832 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 1: It's easy, got the Eagles and the Chiefs. 833 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 2: There you go, rematch and Bucky.

Ah, yes, you read him, you 852 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 2: hear him on his podcast, all of these things, all 853 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 2: the goodness, he's a coach. We were talking at the 854 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 2: end of last hour, Bucky. You disagreed very strongly with 855 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 2: our guy Andy Furman because he'd threw up culture as 856 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 2: a four letter word and dropped his microphone and right 857 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 2: out out the door like night. 858 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. 859 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 5: I think you and everyone else who have been around 860 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,879 Speaker 5: teams that have not been good would like dispute that 861 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 5: at the end of the season. I found it interesting 862 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 5: because in a player's league where everyone thinks that the 863 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 5: players coach is the one that gets along with the 864 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 5: players as opposed to the one that holds them accountable. 865 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 5: At the end of the year, I heard Cole Comet 866 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 5: and I heard several Bears players talk about we got 867 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 5: to fix the culture in the locker room. We got 868 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,959 Speaker 5: to hold people accountable. We can't have people come in late. 869 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 5: We can't have people not practicing to the level that 870 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 5: they need to practice so we can play at a 871 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 5: higher level. 872 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 4: That's environment. 873 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 5: And so when people talk about culture, it's a group 874 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 5: of people who have shared values. 875 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 4: When it comes to their belief system. 876 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 5: And if you don't have that, then how can you 877 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 5: ever achieve what you need to achieve because you have 878 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 5: to have guys who hold people accountable to a certain 879 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 5: standard that has been set. That standard can be set 880 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 5: in the established by the coaches or whatever, but it's 881 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 5: uphill by the players. 882 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 4: So despite the talent that Andy. 883 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 5: Was alluding to, we can have a great team, we 884 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 5: can be superbly, supremely talented, but if everyone isn't operating 885 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 5: with the same standard in mind, will never achieve what 886 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 5: we could achieve because everyone is not capable of being 887 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 5: trusted that they're going to perform at their best when 888 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:25,280 Speaker 5: their best is required. 889 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 2: Oh this is where we get teams and we get 890 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 2: the surprise like we have today with the Commanders and 891 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 2: what dan Quinn was able to install again, you know. 892 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,479 Speaker 2: And Jason laughs at me all the time, my partner, 893 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,479 Speaker 2: Jason Smith during the week because remember he was coming 894 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 2: out of getting bounced out of Dallas because of what 895 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 2: happened with Jordan Love. But immediately it's like, all right, 896 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: here's the vision, let's go and the Bears. You mentioned 897 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 2: Cole Comet, you can go find audio before eber Flues 898 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 2: got fired of him. Jalen Johnson and several other team 899 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 2: leaders who were already barking up that tree. And then 900 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 2: you go and promote Thamas Brown and he did work 901 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 2: some wonders right as coordinator with Caleb Williams, they got 902 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 2: rid of some of the stuff. Look, I hate that 903 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 2: everybody wanted to pin on the Hey, look, he hasn't 904 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 2: thrown an interception in forever. It's like, yeah, that also 905 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 2: tells me you're not trying to push the ball right, 906 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 2: You're not being aggressive in your play calling in structure. 907 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: But that's for Ben Johnson to now figure out. But 908 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 2: all of that to say, you had that, you had 909 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 2: that in Miami right with Mike McDaniel, and now you 910 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 2: my god, now you get the Tyreek Hill thing where 911 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 2: he's like, well, you know, I've always been a winner. 912 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 2: I've always been great. I'm paraphrasing quite obviously and giving 913 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 2: you the full camera effect here in Hollywood, and you're like, wow, 914 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 2: I mean so for me, I mean, I was just 915 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 2: frustrated because I'm just so used to being so great, 916 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 2: which okay, and that's all find and good, but Mike 917 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 2: McDaniel really just calling out the entire locker room. It's like, 918 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 2: look in the mirror. You had eighteen weeks to fix that. 919 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 4: I can't. I can't. 920 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 5: I mean, look, I can only find him. I can 921 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 5: It's only so much I can do. If they keep 922 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 5: being late. What if everyone is late, there's nothing that 923 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 5: you can do. I mean, guys are gonna be late. 924 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 5: So it's only so much you can do. I can 925 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 5: only take so much money out of their pocket or whatever. Well, 926 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 5: then if they are perpetually late, at some point you 927 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 5: got to let them go. You got to sit them down. 928 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 5: That's the only thing that I know that resonates at 929 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 5: every level. If you put someone on the bench and 930 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,880 Speaker 5: take their playing time, that quickly gets their attention. No 931 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 5: matter how much money you make, these guys are all 932 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 5: the same. If they're not doing what you want them 933 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 5: to do, sit them down, the behavior changes. There's a 934 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 5: great clip out there Bobby Knight talking about how there 935 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 5: is something that the bench does through osmosis to get 936 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,240 Speaker 5: people to play better. And so if you find that clip, 937 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 5: it explains it all. But Bobby Knight says it, and 938 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 5: I agree with it. If you don't like what you're getting, 939 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 5: you don't like their behavior, sit them down to make 940 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 5: the behavior change. 941 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 2: Guys on the edge of their seats, hoping to get 942 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 2: their five minutes, steal a little bit of time where 943 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 2: maybe they wouldn't in a normal matchup. Same thing, right times, 944 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 2: you got to send the strong match message right with Andy, 945 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 2: you know, he brings up the Bengals and what they 946 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 2: were doing, and obviously I brought up the Super Bowl 947 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 2: of the expectations of running back. Well, Zach Taylor's failed 948 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 2: them every September, and obviously Joe Burrows had some injury issues. 949 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 2: But if you don't play football in September, you can't 950 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 2: expect to be able to charge down the field like 951 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 2: like a thoroughbread at the Kentucky Derby in December, because 952 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 2: then you need a lot of stuff to go your way. Right, 953 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 2: horse gets tired, jockey gets you know, frustrated, can't close out, 954 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 2: starts to go a little wide because it's tired, all 955 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 2: of those things. Like you're banking on everything to go 956 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,720 Speaker 2: perfectly for you if you give away those games early. 957 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 2: So I always get up frustrated. I was like, Ah, 958 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: it's an early September game. It's like that's finding college football, right, 959 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,320 Speaker 2: as long as you're within the parameters of a twelve 960 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 2: team playoff High Alabama that you're going to get a 961 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 2: chance to go play for a title. But in Bros, 962 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 2: that's not the way it works. 963 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,760 Speaker 5: It doesn't work that way. And you have to continue 964 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 5: to work on them when it comes to that part 965 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 5: of it, like they need to continue to work on 966 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 5: making sure that everyone is on the same page. 967 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 4: You got to hold them accountable. 968 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 5: You got to get that part right before you can 969 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 5: even think about the x's and o's. And it's funny 970 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:22,479 Speaker 5: because we have seen lesser teams go to the Super 971 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 5: Bowl that you being a Bears fan, the team that 972 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 5: with Devin Hester and those guys, they were talented, but 973 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 5: that was not the most talented team that you've seen 974 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:30,760 Speaker 5: come through Chicago. 975 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: Oh, everything had to go right, go back to turnovers 976 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 2: and the ball bouncing your way, defensive turnovers, Devin Hester 977 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: setting records. The offense had its moments, right, Thomas Jones 978 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 2: and those guys they had, they had their moments. But 979 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 2: certainly it wasn't the wizardry around Rex Grossman that got 980 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:50,280 Speaker 2: that to work. Sometimes you win lucky, you win ugly. 981 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, And it was the vibe and the energy right, 982 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 5: Like the vibe was right, the players are right, that 983 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 5: defense I just remember going to Washington practice early in 984 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 5: the year and how Lovey Smith had them running to 985 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 5: the ball like mad men, how Pena Tillman was knocking 986 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 5: the ball out, and how it was contagious when it 987 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 5: came to their defense. Their defense was their best offense, 988 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 5: and how they would pick up everything and the expectation 989 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 5: wasn't that they were going to turn the ball over. 990 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 4: They talked about scoring every time they got a turnover. 991 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 4: It was like a. 992 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 5: Coordinated return team when you receive that Bears team go offensively. 993 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 5: They weren't great, right, they did enough, but they that 994 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,240 Speaker 5: team went to a Super Bowl. There have been teams 995 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 5: that are better, more talented than that group that Chicago 996 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 5: can't even get to a winning record. And part of 997 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 5: that is the culture and the environment, you know, I mean, 998 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,399 Speaker 5: that's what it is. 999 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 4: And you have to fix that. 1000 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 5: And so we'll see if Ben Johnson is able to 1001 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 5: implement and install a culture that allows those guys to 1002 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 5: play better. But every athlete, every player that's worth assault, 1003 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 5: they want structure, discipline, and consistency. They want to know 1004 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 5: that every day they come in it's going to be 1005 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:58,479 Speaker 5: the same kind of structure and environment, so they can 1006 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 5: settle in and do what they need to do to 1007 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:01,359 Speaker 5: be ready. 1008 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 2: Their kids, their kids going to school. Here's my structure, 1009 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 2: one three, five day, here's the classes I gotta go. 1010 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 2: Here's when lunch is. And that's what Billy's gonna call 1011 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 2: me a jerk. I'm gonna, you know, you know, do 1012 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 2: the little hand gestures like I'm from a mob movie. 1013 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 2: We're gonna nod our heads and move on with our day. 1014 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's structure, it's it's continuity, right, whenever 1015 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 2: you have something that comes out of the weeds. Right, 1016 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 2: I can plan to get here early to record a 1017 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 2: podcast or whatever, but guess what, I'm in Los Angeles. 1018 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,800 Speaker 2: What was a forty minute drive becomes two hours. Sorry, 1019 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 2: we'll have to do it after the show or tomorrow. 1020 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,240 Speaker 2: I you know, best laid plans and all of those things. 1021 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 2: But you're trying to have a structure, a continuity, post 1022 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 2: consistently all of those best practices kind of things that 1023 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 2: you go through. So I have to ask you out 1024 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,360 Speaker 2: of these hires. We're still waiting on New Orleans to 1025 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 2: figure out what they're doing. Uh, And I figure you're 1026 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,240 Speaker 2: gonna just give me a thread of like nine thousand 1027 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 2: things of what really happened with Liam Cohen and everything 1028 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 2: there in Jacksonville. Who's your favorite higher out of the six? 1029 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 4: You know? My favorite high is Pete Carroll going to 1030 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 4: the Las Vegas Raiders. 1031 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 5: And the reason why is I want to see if 1032 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 5: Pete Carroll is able to do what he did at 1033 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 5: USC and Seattle, where he being the ultimate culture builder, 1034 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 5: jumps in there like the pie Piper, sings all this 1035 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 5: positive songs, you know, throws the ball around while chewing 1036 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 5: that bubblelicious bubblegum and just trying to get the Raiders going. 1037 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 5: Because there's some decent players with the Las Vegas Raiders, 1038 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 5: but what they've missed is what we talked about, the consistency, 1039 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,720 Speaker 5: the structure, the discipline, and even the detail. 1040 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 4: And even though Pete Carroll is a little. 1041 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 5: Loosey goosey if you compare him to like the Nick 1042 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 5: Saban and Bill Belichick types, he has had a lot 1043 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 5: of success doing it his own way. So I want 1044 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,359 Speaker 5: to see if he can get the Raiders to play 1045 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 5: like the Raiders while having fun and doing all that 1046 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 5: other stuff that he. 1047 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 4: Does within a very structured environment. 1048 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 5: So I'm excited about that and I'm also excited about, Like, look, 1049 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 5: all of these coaching hires can't work. 1050 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 4: So if you have six coaching hires, one is going 1051 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 4: to hit in a major. 1052 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:17,280 Speaker 5: Way, Maybe another one or two more may be okay, 1053 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:18,800 Speaker 5: and then three are gonna feel miserably. 1054 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 4: I want to see what Aaron Lynn does. 1055 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 5: Going back to New York, going back to where he played, 1056 00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 5: where he was reared and developed under Bill Parcelles and 1057 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,879 Speaker 5: Bill Belichick being there, and I want to see how 1058 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 5: much of that hard knows stuff he's able to implement there, 1059 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 5: because knowing Ag personally, I have seen him in an 1060 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 5: environment where high school kids completely tear them the streds 1061 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 5: when they did not meet the standard. So I can 1062 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 5: only imagine when Aaron Rodgers is over there doing his thing, 1063 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,279 Speaker 5: his witchcraft and all this other stuff and his. 1064 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,320 Speaker 4: Philosophizing on the sideline. Only imagine how long. 1065 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 5: That's gonna go over Will before he blows a gasket 1066 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 5: and tries to get him in line. 1067 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I think I think we assume, yeah, as 1068 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 2: your word's there, I've got to assume that Rogers comes 1069 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,279 Speaker 2: back and they get a placeholder, build the foundation. Kind 1070 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 2: of year we had Jason Cole on the other day 1071 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 2: he writes for the thirty third Team and Hall of 1072 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 2: Fame Voter, a bunch of books, the Lway Books, fantastic. 1073 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 2: He just raised his hand as Smith was trying to 1074 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 2: take a victory lap Jets guy, of course, for those unaware. 1075 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 2: Right after the Bears and Ben Johnson, the next day 1076 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 2: we get Aaron Glenn. But he just asked, rhetorically, how 1077 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 2: much different is this other than maybe he's more fiery 1078 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 2: than Robert Salah in terms of what you're bringing in 1079 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 2: the CV the history obviously Glenn played, but in terms 1080 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 2: of temperament and what he's bringing to the table, you know, 1081 00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:59,280 Speaker 2: major differences. That's suddenly gonna make the Jets a contender. 1082 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 4: I mean, that is a really good point. I don't know. 1083 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 5: I mean I wonder what does change? What does change 1084 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 5: with all of it? Do they can't? Can can he 1085 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 5: get him? Can he get him better? Who's gonna be 1086 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 5: the offensive coach? You know how they're going to do 1087 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 5: it when it comes to defensively? 1088 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 4: Is you gonna call it? Or is you gonna be 1089 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 4: the CEO type? 1090 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,320 Speaker 5: All of those things are really interesting to me, really 1091 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:27,839 Speaker 5: fascinating when it comes to it. 1092 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 4: But Jason Cole brings up a good thing. 1093 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 5: How is he different than Robert Salad because the gest 1094 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 5: is some unusual. Normally you go from defensive coach to 1095 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 5: offensive coach, back to defensive coach, et. 1096 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 4: Cetera, et cetera, because you always want the opposite of 1097 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 4: what you had. 1098 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 5: Not that they're the same, but they are the same, 1099 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 5: two defensive guys that are like fire and brimstone types. 1100 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 2: What changes, right, new head men, right, new new territory 1101 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 2: for them to traverse. Aaron Wilson reporting that the passing 1102 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 2: game coordinator tight ends coach Nick k of the Rams 1103 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 2: is the leading candidate to be their offensive coordinator. So 1104 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 2: if you do bring back Rogers, right, it's well, you're 1105 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 2: gonna have to shuffle out some of his friends. So 1106 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 2: get through the moodiness there, and then how much do 1107 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 2: you take him at his word that the back half 1108 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 2: of the season was happy because he played some pretty 1109 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: good football at times. Right, They collapsed in the fourth 1110 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 2: quarter of games, So still some question marks there, but 1111 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 2: the numbers look good. Top ten in a bunch of 1112 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 2: categories touchdown to interception ratio. Is there a little bit 1113 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 2: more mobility? Did he need more time post injury to 1114 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 2: get back to more of Aaron Rodgers. You have to 1115 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 2: go and figure out how to Playkate Garrett Wilson, who 1116 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 2: clearly hated everybody and everything in the final weeks of 1117 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 2: that season. So that DeVante Adams does he come back, 1118 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you've got some personnel questions, you got a 1119 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 2: new GM that comes in from Denver. All of that 1120 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:51,760 Speaker 2: to say, you know, last year they won the offseason, 1121 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 2: everybody got excited, and it was an absolute train wreck. 1122 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 2: And now we look to the next Pete Carroll higher 1123 00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 2: to me, Bucky is is fun for a million reais 1124 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,280 Speaker 2: because as long as these guys are wandering the sideline 1125 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 2: him there and Belichick, you know down in North Carolina, 1126 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 2: you're Alma mater, and you'll go and you know you're 1127 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,280 Speaker 2: gonna get me a bunch of sign pictures and stuff. 1128 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 2: Thank you. And then the or lebron and Staph that 1129 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 2: we talked about in now ur one. So long as 1130 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 2: they're playing, I don't feel so old. 1131 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 5: M hm. 1132 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 4: I mean, yes, I'm with that, you know what I mean. 1133 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 2: And then Andy Reid sixty eight doesn't seem sixty eight. 1134 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 2: But the question is, now does he color his mustache 1135 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 2: like Ryan Day? 1136 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 4: The Ryan Day thing is fascinating. It's funny like it 1137 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 4: it is, it is, it is funny. 1138 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 2: Well, I mean the guy can coach, right, We established that, 1139 00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 2: and everybody called it the lunatic fringe of potentially getting 1140 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 2: fired and whatever. It's always the conversation that we have 1141 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:55,279 Speaker 2: of who are you gonna find that's better. But we've 1142 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 2: watched with a number of coaches where those the cacophony 1143 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 2: of voices starts to rise up. Like I said, I 1144 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 2: do a weekly spot in Baltimore. They didn't lead with 1145 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 2: the Andrews drop. They led with Harbaugh and then got 1146 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 2: to Lamar Jackson and eventually got to Mark Andrews. You 1147 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 2: knew the meat was there for Mark Andrews quite obviously, 1148 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 2: because as I said during the week, and everyone's like, wow, 1149 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 2: it's still ninety seconds Josh Allen and blah blah blah, 1150 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 2: And I'm like, they gave up six points in the 1151 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 2: second half. Did the Baltimore defense They gave up twenty 1152 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 2: one in the first half. Seven of them off of 1153 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 2: the Lamar Jackson gaff gift right defense have played really well. 1154 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, would you rather have the two point conversion 1155 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,279 Speaker 2: and fight Josh Allen or say, we don't get it, 1156 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,960 Speaker 2: but you know what, we got a sliver of a 1157 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,600 Speaker 2: chance to collect an on side kick. Oh and then 1158 00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 2: we have to trust Justin Tucker if we can't get 1159 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:49,840 Speaker 2: a touchdown in those final minutes. 1160 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:54,160 Speaker 4: Come on, you're okay with that? 1161 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 2: Bad arguments bad? 1162 00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:59,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you're okay with what that is going 1163 00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 5: on to be. So it's look, man, it's a tough 1164 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 5: situation for the poor ravens Lamar Jackson. I actually felt 1165 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:14,319 Speaker 5: like Lamar Jackson's reaction after the game was almost as 1166 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 5: if a weight was lifted off his back because it 1167 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 5: was the first time he really played well in that round. 1168 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 5: We can talk about the turnovers and those things that 1169 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 5: he had. 1170 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,439 Speaker 4: He played really well the second. 1171 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,719 Speaker 5: Half and in fact, that last drive was everything that 1172 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 5: you wanted to see that people that talked about can 1173 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:33,320 Speaker 5: lead him back and whatever. 1174 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 4: And so he is. 1175 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:39,279 Speaker 5: A drop two point conversion away from I would say 1176 00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:41,040 Speaker 5: a legacy performance. 1177 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,840 Speaker 2: At least anything to push it over. Yeah. 1178 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, If anything, I think he comes walks away from 1179 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 5: that with more confidence that, Okay, if I can just 1180 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 5: settle in, I can do this at a high level 1181 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 5: in these big games. 1182 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 2: You know, it's fun stuff at Bucky Brooks where you 1183 00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 2: find them, read them, NFL, Foxsports dot Com Podcast, everything else. 1184 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 2: Daniel Jeremiah your partner on the pod.

Shador Sanders with one of the great quotes 1216 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 2: of all times, like don't we try to get parents 1217 00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 2: to be involved in their kids' lives and help them along. 1218 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 2: As people were asking about Dion and the Invisible Hand 1219 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 2: and whether it's a detriment to him, it's like it's narratives, goes. 1220 00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 2: But isn't that what we always strive for? Isn't that 1221 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 2: the talking point? I really like the answer for him, 1222 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 2: as he smiled at the reporter the entire time. 1223 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I like that, And I would say, like, yeah, 1224 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 5: Dion is involved. He's very active and as much as 1225 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:22,480 Speaker 5: he can influence and impact his kids career between the lines, 1226 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 5: he's done that and it's no different than what every 1227 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 5: parent would like to do. 1228 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 4: That's why we have a bunch of plumbers out there called. 1229 00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,919 Speaker 5: Johnson or Smith and Sons. Yeah, that's what you do. 1230 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 5: I mean, that's what we do. And people don't like 1231 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 5: nepotism until they don't like nepotism, I. 1232 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 2: Mean, yeah, unless it's helping you. 1233 00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, But like we all are tasked with trying to 1234 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 5: help and elevate our kids to put them in. 1235 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 4: A position now. 1236 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 5: We want to equip them though with the work ethic 1237 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 5: that they're competent and that they're able to do the 1238 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 5: job and do the job exceptionally well. But I feel 1239 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 5: like the job of the parent is to set the 1240 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 5: kid up for success, and I think that's. 1241 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:10,960 Speaker 4: What Diana is certainly trying to do with both of 1242 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 4: his kids should do and shoot. It is funny, and 1243 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,040 Speaker 4: Shoulder had a great answer to that. 1244 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 5: I am down in Dallas right now to look at 1245 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:23,000 Speaker 5: East West Rim both practices call the game on Thursday, 1246 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 5: and I'm disappointed that he's not playing, but I certainly understand, 1247 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 5: and he came to do what is the important part 1248 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:33,439 Speaker 5: of the gig now for him, the interviews, to make 1249 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 5: the people at the top of the board comfortable with 1250 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,920 Speaker 5: him as a potential franchise quarterback. And there's a lot 1251 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 5: of conversation because he has become the polarizing figure. I've 1252 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 5: already seen the. 1253 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 4: Conversation the father that's out there like, oh, I. 1254 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:48,840 Speaker 5: Wouldn't even take him with a first round pick. He's 1255 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 5: the second rounder. I don't even know if he's. 1256 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 2: That Tell me you needed the clicks like a police 1257 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 2: police officer told to add some extra park tickets on 1258 01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:57,920 Speaker 2: the Thursday. 1259 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, let's calm down when it comes to that. Yeah, 1260 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 5: there's some flaws in his game and there's not. 1261 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 4: A perfect prospect. 1262 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 5: But remember everyone wasn't convinced that this year's class was good. 1263 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 4: Do you remember the. 1264 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 5: Outrage over bow Knicks considered the first round picks A 1265 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 5: checkdown guy shutting down char smart games.

We've 1344 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 2: had this conversation, all right, So Daniel Jeremiah right off 1345 01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 2: the jump abdual Carter from Penn State, and I love 1346 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:14,800 Speaker 2: this because that's the Brian Cranston doing the circuit and 1347 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,760 Speaker 2: answering the question from the guy that got funny and 1348 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 2: said something about the dude's mom and then dropped the microphone. 1349 01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:24,400 Speaker 2: But Edge Rusher Titans, Chad Brinker and I think for 1350 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 2: a lot of us, and I'm sure you did too. 1351 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 2: And Daniel even writes it in his blurb saying, hey, 1352 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 2: we can't pass up on a generational guy. That led 1353 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 2: me to Carter in my thinking when he said that. 1354 01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 2: But maybe I'm blinded by my big ten allegiance. 1355 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,200 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know, I mean generational. 1356 01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 2: Well, we use that term very flippantly anymore. 1357 01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 4: We do. 1358 01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:48,920 Speaker 5: And then we have to determine was he generational in 1359 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 5: September when we talked about it, Yeah, I don't know. 1360 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:52,760 Speaker 5: I don't know if I heard about him generational, But 1361 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 5: like now we're in micraft season. Yeah, generational. He's a 1362 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 5: generational past rusher. He's a great athlete. He certainly is 1363 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 5: Dad the double sticks that LeVar Arrington made famous, followed 1364 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 5: by Michael Parsons and others, and so, yeah, look, he's 1365 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:09,920 Speaker 5: a talented player. He can come off the edge. He 1366 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 5: has a speed, the athleticism in quickness. You at the 1367 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 5: top of the board, what you're looking for is someone 1368 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 5: that you can squint your eyes and see all pro 1369 01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 5: maybe Hall of Fame potential. 1370 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 4: It makes sense in that regard. 1371 01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 5: But we at the top of the board, and we 1372 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 5: know everyone loves a quarterback, and so are we going 1373 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 5: to bypass an opportunity to get a quarterback? 1374 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:32,200 Speaker 4: And run it back. 1375 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 5: With Will Levis, Mason Rudolph or Sam Darnod, we'll just 1376 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 5: throw that name out there. 1377 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 4: Do we feel good about those things? If you're Brian 1378 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 4: Callahan and his year. 1379 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:46,080 Speaker 5: Two and we're seeing how quickly coaches are being dumped, 1380 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 5: are we okay with a quarterback being one. 1381 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 4: Of those guys? Because if we are, then yeah, you 1382 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 4: can make that move. But we aren't. 1383 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 5: And you bypass one of those quarterbacks and one of 1384 01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:59,080 Speaker 5: those quarterbacks turns out to be a Jaden Daniels type, 1385 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:00,800 Speaker 5: do you survive? That? 1386 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 4: Just something to think about. 1387 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 2: Well, considering you had a lot of people in December 1388 01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 2: wondering if Callahan was coming back, right, because it is 1389 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 2: enamor status with Will Levice, who can throw the ball 1390 01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:16,080 Speaker 2: the country mile. He will also throw it. 1391 01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, he can do splits evidently based on the commercial 1392 01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 5: he can do splits. And he's great with Mayo and 1393 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:24,400 Speaker 5: Mayo and and all that. 1394 01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1395 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, like eccentricity, right, I mean we're radio hosts and 1396 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 2: media guys. 1397 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's great. I love it. 1398 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 5: I love I love having that as a as a 1399 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,720 Speaker 5: story to tell when we talk about But Will. 1400 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 2: Right as you're looking at this and you're getting ready 1401 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,320 Speaker 2: for the shrine game. Buck, you'll be on the broadcast Thursday. 1402 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 2: We'll make sure to tweet that out and promote as 1403 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 2: you get ready, because then we'll get to chop it 1404 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 2: up on what you saw next Sunday. But when we 1405 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 2: look at the top of the board, are any of 1406 01:07:53,640 --> 01:07:56,040 Speaker 2: those quarterbacks other than the fact that their quarterbacks and 1407 01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 2: we're desperate that you really say, is a guy like 1408 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 2: if you had Chidor in the room, are Ward? What's 1409 01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 2: the first question you're asking him? 1410 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 5: I think for cam Ward is Kenny Hardest, Kenny Harness 1411 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 5: to gun slinging. 1412 01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 4: He is a talented player who has done it at 1413 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 4: three different. 1414 01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:17,800 Speaker 5: Places incarnate Word first, Washington State, second, Miami third. The 1415 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 5: good part of that is you've seen him progress and 1416 01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 5: you've seen him actually step up in competition with each 1417 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 5: change in location. So you feel good about his ability 1418 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:29,920 Speaker 5: to adapt and adjust to the next level because he's 1419 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:32,200 Speaker 5: shown that the more you give him, the more he 1420 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,919 Speaker 5: can do. You can say the same about Shadr Sanders 1421 01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:39,679 Speaker 5: shadur Gorn from Jackson State HBCU two year starter goes 1422 01:08:39,720 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 5: to Colorado two year Starter turned around both programs. We 1423 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:47,559 Speaker 5: can't dispute that as a quarterback, we can talk about 1424 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:49,840 Speaker 5: he's non athletic and some of the things that you 1425 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 5: hear about him were the things that hung around c. J. 1426 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 5: Stroud in terms of the athleticism and those things hangs 1427 01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 5: onto the ball a long time. There're being comparisons loosely 1428 01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 5: made to Geno Smith in terms of Geno Smith the Pro. 1429 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:05,840 Speaker 4: Bowl caliber talent. Here's what I say. He's played in 1430 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:07,120 Speaker 4: a bunch of big time games and. 1431 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 5: He has had a lot of spotlight on him. And 1432 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:11,759 Speaker 5: when we talk about the franchise quarterback and the amount 1433 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:14,759 Speaker 5: of attention that comes with that, he has handled himself 1434 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:19,640 Speaker 5: pretty well in the scorching eye of the storm that 1435 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:22,320 Speaker 5: comes with being the son of Deion Sanders and all 1436 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 5: the stuff that they've done. So I think both guys 1437 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:29,240 Speaker 5: are NFL starters. Both guys have the ability to be 1438 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:34,280 Speaker 5: winning quarterbacks. I can say that they're transformational in terms 1439 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 5: of how they're going to change the game and those things. 1440 01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 5: But I think both guys can be winning quarterbacks. And 1441 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:40,959 Speaker 5: if you have an opportunity to get a winning quarterback, 1442 01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:44,439 Speaker 5: you jump at the notion. To me, people will then say, 1443 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 5: like I have Bolnicks graded above them. I think you 1444 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 5: can put them in bow Knicks all in the same category. 1445 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:51,599 Speaker 5: When I look at bow Knicks and what he did 1446 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:55,639 Speaker 5: his first year in the league, playoff appearance, played well, 1447 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,920 Speaker 5: challenged Jayden Daniels as Offensive Rookie of. 1448 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,400 Speaker 4: The Year based on how he led the Broncos. 1449 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 5: I think all of us would take that, which is 1450 01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 5: why I'm hile cam Ward and Shuter. 1451 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 2: Sanders impressive all around. We'll keep an eye out for 1452 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 2: Bucky and his first round mock at the end of 1453 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:11,960 Speaker 2: the week and all of his coverage at Bucky Brooks 1454 01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 2: at Big Play Football, what he's got going on with 1455 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,000 Speaker 2: the Shrine game as he calls that on Thursday. I 1456 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 2: know the practices are going and all the interviews, all 1457 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 2: the fun stuff, the medicals and all of that that 1458 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:25,320 Speaker 2: you can get to. And I applied for my virtual 1459 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 2: media access so I could sit around in my T 1460 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 2: shirt and shorts instead of getting out. Well, man, look man, 1461 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:34,120 Speaker 2: it's expensive flying around at this point. I got kids 1462 01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 2: to get around. But we got all of that, We've 1463 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 2: got prop bets, we've got our examination of the championship 1464 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 2: game ahead. Last point, off of what we talked about 1465 01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:47,760 Speaker 2: house money and everything, ask Bobby slow cow House money. 1466 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:54,280 Speaker 5: Goes see, Hey, I'm glad, I'm glad you brought that up, right. 1467 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 5: Bobby Slogan was the hottest guy right and everyone was like, hey, man, 1468 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 5: make sure you get the right job. You don't take 1469 01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 5: the head job. Make sure it's to write one harmon. 1470 01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:08,240 Speaker 5: We've said this. When someone offers you an opportunity to 1471 01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:11,320 Speaker 5: run a team. Yeah, we can talk about fits and 1472 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:13,840 Speaker 5: gotta have this an alignment or whatever, but they're only 1473 01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 5: thirty two of them, and you got to get it 1474 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:19,679 Speaker 5: when you're hot, and so we can debate about, hey, 1475 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:21,559 Speaker 5: is it a perfect storm, and you can act like 1476 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:23,680 Speaker 5: your ice and top gun and you're waiting for the 1477 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,799 Speaker 5: perfect shot. But sometimes you got to operate light Maverick. 1478 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:29,480 Speaker 5: Sometimes you just got to shoot and figure it out. 1479 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 5: And unfortunately for Bobby Slowick, he didn't do it. He 1480 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,320 Speaker 5: didn't get a gig, and so now he almost has 1481 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 5: to start back at the bottom of the ladder to 1482 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:41,120 Speaker 5: climb back up to be a viable head coaching candidate, 1483 01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 5: which is nothing that any of us saw heading into 1484 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 5: the season. 1485 01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 2: And escalated quickly. Bad offensive line, a lot of injuries. 1486 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:51,759 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter you win the division.

Jalen 1522 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:50,839 Speaker 9: Carter muse posting tell me you ain't been to Philly 1523 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:54,679 Speaker 9: without telling me you ain't been to Philly. And finally 1524 01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:58,560 Speaker 9: Julyissa posting hard Rock Cafe is a place where teenagers 1525 01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 9: go for their birthday dinner. Is lmfao anyway? The encore 1526 01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 9: of that at six point thirty eastern, the Kansas City 1527 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,720 Speaker 9: Chiefs hosting the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game, 1528 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:14,439 Speaker 9: and from the sublime to the ridiculous in social media 1529 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:17,600 Speaker 9: conspiracy theory news. As many of you out there know, 1530 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 9: Buffalo Bills fans are known from, among other things, leaping 1531 01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:25,439 Speaker 9: into folding tables. Well, there is a rumor circulating on 1532 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 9: social media right now that Kansas City area retailers are 1533 01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 9: refusing to sell folding tables to anyone without a Missouri 1534 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:40,360 Speaker 9: driver's license. The rumor apparently originated in a Bills fans 1535 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:44,360 Speaker 9: Facebook group, but sadly, there is no evidence out there. 1536 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,720 Speaker 2: That this rumor is true. Back to you guys at 1537 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 2: Isaac Lowancrown, and I'll say this, I support small businesses. 1538 01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:55,599 Speaker 2: I love small business. If you're refusing them from going 1539 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,439 Speaker 2: and busting a table based on the team that they 1540 01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:01,920 Speaker 2: cheer for, you're a dope. Just you jack up the 1541 01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:06,120 Speaker 2: prices what you do, and you deserve to suffer some consequences, 1542 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:09,880 Speaker 2: because I mean, that's just printing money here. I ordered 1543 01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:13,000 Speaker 2: extra eight foot tables, let's go. I even saw it 1544 01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 2: a little bit into him, like I'm a Hollywood producer, 1545 01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 2: so it can go through like you know, you'd break 1546 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:19,839 Speaker 2: a guitar over a guy's head, like you're Jeff Jarrett. 1547 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 2: How do you like that? He's Isaac, that's Bucky.

You got the 1558 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 2: upstart Washington commanders. Nick sirianni Is he's still on a 1559 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:02,960 Speaker 2: hot seat, Jalen Hurts, how big is that brace gonna be? 1560 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 2: And on the other side, now everybody hates the chiefs Bucky. 1561 01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:09,680 Speaker 2: Now they're talking about not only sky Judge kind of thing. 1562 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:13,200 Speaker 2: But now we're gonna maybe expand reviews some more chefter reporting. 1563 01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:17,680 Speaker 2: Yesterday the replay assists is looking like it's going to 1564 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:20,920 Speaker 2: expand this offseason to where you can get the red 1565 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:24,200 Speaker 2: button and zap down to the officials. That'll start including 1566 01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:27,640 Speaker 2: quarterback slides, those out of bounds plays and all that 1567 01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:28,479 Speaker 2: other fun stuff. 1568 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 5: Wow, that's I mean, that's big that it takes some 1569 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 5: of the conspiracy theorists. That's just satisfy them, you know, 1570 01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:38,880 Speaker 5: to be able to add another layer to it. 1571 01:16:39,080 --> 01:16:39,960 Speaker 4: I wonder how many. 1572 01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 5: Well, if it's coming straight down from that, that's just 1573 01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:45,080 Speaker 5: an extension of what they're already doing, so it shouldn't 1574 01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:45,679 Speaker 5: change anything. 1575 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:48,840 Speaker 2: No, that's it right in theory. It's just a more 1576 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:52,240 Speaker 2: transparency over what you're already supposed to be doing. Right, 1577 01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 2: because they've expanded it a couple of times and putting 1578 01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:57,400 Speaker 2: in more language. I don't know if it's like a 1579 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 2: player contract where we just want everything enumerated. At this 1580 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:02,320 Speaker 2: point of what they might look at. To me, it 1581 01:17:02,479 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 2: just sho just blinking say common sense as two controversies 1582 01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:09,720 Speaker 2: and making sure we get it right, particularly with the 1583 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 2: high definition televisions and giant seventy two inch ninety six 1584 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:19,400 Speaker 2: inch screens. Everybody's watching this stuff on with innumerable replays. 1585 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 2: Got to get it right. It's a lot of money 1586 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:25,960 Speaker 2: being transacted, both in the betting markets and just in 1587 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 2: general people going to games and the television revenue, et cetera. 1588 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 2: Schefter then pointed this out from just a little less 1589 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 2: than a half hour ago during the Chiefs eight game 1590 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 2: win streak in the playoffs, roughing the passer opponents six 1591 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:46,000 Speaker 2: Chiefs zero, unnecessary roughness opponents four Chiefs one. Now, there 1592 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:48,040 Speaker 2: was a stat during the National title game that just 1593 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,960 Speaker 2: floored me that I couldn't believe it was right when 1594 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 2: they said that there had only been one holding penalty 1595 01:17:55,760 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 2: called against the Ohio State defense all year, like as 1596 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 2: their pass rushers are coming in like no opponent, like, 1597 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 2: there was literally one call of holding as they tried 1598 01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 2: to suppress the pass rush that was coming from Ryan 1599 01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 2: Day and his squad. So that's kind of interesting. But 1600 01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:15,080 Speaker 2: we love conspiracy theories, and certainly there'll be plenty of them. 1601 01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:18,880 Speaker 2: I think we'll see the twitter whale during the evening game. 1602 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:23,599 Speaker 2: You think all that's gonna take is one play, Get 1603 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,559 Speaker 2: those memes ready for those that want to hate Taylor Swift. 1604 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,519 Speaker 2: You'll have that. Maybe Caitlyn Clark shows up again, because 1605 01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 2: now she's getting a low back. 1606 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:37,719 Speaker 5: You are talking about absolutely blowing up the Twitter verse 1607 01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 5: if you get Caitlyn Clark and let's get them side 1608 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:43,920 Speaker 5: by side into booths like we saw the other day. 1609 01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,320 Speaker 2: They just keep playing the bad Blood video. It's it. 1610 01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:49,720 Speaker 2: It's one of the greatest music videos ever made. It's 1611 01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 2: got everybody, Selanna Gomez, Steinfeld, Taylor Swift. So why do 1612 01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:56,960 Speaker 2: I sound like Patrick Warburton in my own head? But 1613 01:18:57,439 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: as we go through we talked about the games, is 1614 01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 2: who's the guy that you're looking for a breakthrough surprise 1615 01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:07,120 Speaker 2: performance to tip the scales for either of these for 1616 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 2: any of these squads. 1617 01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:09,799 Speaker 1: I think Xavier. 1618 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,040 Speaker 5: Worthy has to be a big part of the thing 1619 01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:14,400 Speaker 5: for the Kancity Chiefs. But the guy who's a surprised 1620 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 5: how about DeAndre Hopkins maybe showing up and kind of 1621 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 5: being what they want him to be. 1622 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,000 Speaker 2: Zero catches last week first. 1623 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 5: Zero catches non factor, but remember the experience matters, and 1624 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:25,720 Speaker 5: then let's go to the commanders. 1625 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 4: Somebody else has to do it. So how about Dianmi. 1626 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,719 Speaker 5: Brown catching some big passes to alleviate some own oppression 1627 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:31,599 Speaker 5: on Terry mcvaran. 1628 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:33,720 Speaker 2: Let's see if we can get another John Cena. You 1629 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,599 Speaker 2: can't see me handing his face and a dime from 1630 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:39,640 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels, He's Bucky Brooks. Following at Bucky Brooks, I'm 1631 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:41,519 Speaker 2: over at Swollen Dome count down to kick off his 1632 01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:42,679 Speaker 2: next Enjoy the games,
