In your bag now, 27 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: Bucket Brooks. I got a question for you. Why because 28 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 2: you played the game. I didn't play the game. You 29 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: played the game. You're a pro, once a pro, always 30 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: a pro. You played in the National Football League. I 31 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: got a football question. And look, when they say you're 32 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: on a team, I think that everybody is in there 33 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: for one and one reason only. That's why it's a team. 34 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: I read this story just the other day. Miami of 35 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: Ohio got a starting quarterback by name with the Kwan 36 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 2: Finn all right, seventh year player, over eight thousand career 37 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: pissing yards. He played for three teams already in college. 38 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 2: That I don't even understand as well, but that's another story. 39 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 2: He left the program to begin preparing for the NFL. 40 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 2: Why they played the other day, Miami of Ohio played Toledo. 41 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: They lost, and he left the team. Okay, The coach 42 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: of Miami of Ohio, Chuck Martin, said, well he departed. 43 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: He was he didn't die, he just left the team. 44 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: The coach that he departed, well, that's not the wrong word. 45 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: But he left the team Friday. He told the team 46 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: that he appreciated the quarterbacks eleven months on the program, 47 00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: but will not see him the rest of the year. 48 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: Get this, buck, Get this. He spent the first five 49 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: years of his college five years five years of his 50 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: college script first five years at University of Toledo, and 51 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four he was a Baylor and now 52 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: he's at Miami of Ohio. That's one thing I don't 53 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 2: even understand. That's another story. But after the game and 54 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: they lost, they lost to Toledo on Wednesday, twenty four 55 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: to twenty. I guess they figured they're not going to 56 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 2: win the Mid American Conference. So he says, the hell 57 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: with you guys, I'm leaving, unpacking my bags. Ongoing is 58 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 2: his kid selfish? I think he is. You're a teammate, 59 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: you're a leader, you're in a quarterback and he's packing 60 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: his bags and leaving. Tell me the story about this. 61 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 2: Have you ever heard a story like this before? 62 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 6: So I just saw the story last night, and it's 63 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 6: one of the more selfish things that I've seen a 64 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 6: player do. 65 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 3: And the fact that he thinks that he's going to 66 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 3: be able. 67 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 6: To prepare and get ready for the NFL. Like NFL 68 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 6: scouts are going to look negatively upon this because he 69 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 6: left his team in a lurch, and they know that 70 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 6: as soon as he gets tough for him in the league, 71 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 6: he's going to do the same thing zip. 72 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 3: In those same behaviors. 73 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 6: Even though scouts and evaluators have gotten more comfortable with 74 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 6: the idea of people bouncing around, transferring and such, it 75 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 6: still makes them uncomfortable to see people run from adversity. 76 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 6: And to me, this is a player running from a 77 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 6: bit of adversity, Like, Okay, your team can't play for 78 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 6: the championship, so now you bail on it. What are 79 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 6: you gonna do at the first out of trouble in 80 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 6: the league. It's a bad move, It's a selfish move, 81 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 6: and it's one that would kind of be a smudge 82 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 6: on his career. 83 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: I can't believe that we agree, we're on the same 84 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: page right now for this, because I think it's common sense. 85 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: Be Gad's selfish? Is that in my mind? But here's 86 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: another thing I don't get. He played forty five games 87 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,119 Speaker 2: in University of Toledo. I don't get it. How does 88 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: he still play? I mean, he's been in college seven years. Yeah, 89 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: I don't think he's stupid. I mean, how do you 90 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: stay in college and be eligible for seven years? Explain 91 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: that to me, please, I don't get it. 92 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. 93 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 6: Without looking at his history, I would think that there's 94 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 6: a red shirt, some kind of medical red shirt that 95 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 6: he was able to receive to extend his career. But 96 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 6: you're right when you talk about spent four years at Toledo, 97 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 6: in another year at Baylor, and then's able to make 98 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 6: his way to Miami, Ohio. It doesn't seem like he 99 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 6: should have all of that eligibility, but somehow he worked it. 100 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 3: He worked it out. To me, it's just. 101 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 6: All of it though, just kind of screams of a 102 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 6: selfishness that you certainly don't like. 103 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 3: Like people are put up with it. 104 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 6: They'll evaluate the talent in those things, but when it 105 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 6: comes to the character, the football character that people like, 106 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 6: that people want on their team, he certainly falls. 107 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 2: Short, no doubt about that. So he was at Toledo 108 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: and then he transferred to Baylor. He opened the twenty 109 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 2: twenty fourth season at Baylor as the starting quarterback. After 110 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: Week three, he lost the job to Sawyer Robertson. So 111 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 2: now he goes to Miami. 112 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 6: No. 113 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: No, the next question I have is he getting nil 114 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 2: money at all these schools? That's I guess he is, right. 115 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 6: I mean, well, Nio just came into play like the 116 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 6: last few years, so maybe he got he has some, 117 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 6: you know, but I mean I don't know. But even then, 118 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 6: like still it doesn't change how you feel about his act, 119 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 6: because his act still comes off as very very selfish 120 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 6: and me centric. That he started at a place and 121 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 6: then just kind of took off and did his own 122 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 6: thing like that certainly is not Yeah, that's not cool. 123 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 6: That's unbecoming of someone that you want to be the 124 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 6: leader of your team and to do some of the 125 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 6: things that you certainly want your quarterback, your QB one 126 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 6: to do. 127 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: There's no doubt I was asked you a question. Obviously 128 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: I know the answer. You know, would you do something 129 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: like that? There's no way, there's no way in the 130 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: on God's green earth you would ever do that. I know. 131 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: I mean maybe I wouldn't know. I don't think I. 132 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 6: Would even entertain her. Like it's just such a bad, 133 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 6: such a bad move. 134 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: It just looks bad, it smells bad. Teammates and me, 135 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna move on, just I gotta take a shower. Now. 136 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 2: That's how dirty he makes me feel. I really does. 137 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 2: I will to talk about the college football yesterday a 138 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 2: couple of biggies. I'm looking this Texas A and M score, 139 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: I'm looking back and forth. They were down thirty to 140 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: three at halftime. I said, what was to South Carolina? No? Less? Right? 141 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 2: And they win? How does that turn out? I don't understand. 142 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 2: Have you ever seen a game like that? Texas A 143 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 2: and M scored twenty eight unanswered points over the first 144 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 2: twenty minutes of the second half, and they won thirty 145 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: one to thirty. How does that happen? How does I mean? 146 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 2: South Carolina right now must be sticking the head in 147 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: the toilet. I don't understand how that could happen. 148 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 6: Well, I mean they certainly are sick giving that up 149 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 6: because they were dominating the game the first half and 150 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 6: completely let it go in the second half. 151 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 3: It is something that you rarely see. 152 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 6: You don't see teams fall apart like that, and for 153 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 6: them to do it. Shane Beemer is already facing a 154 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 6: lot of heat, a lot of scrutiny. He's fired a 155 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 6: lot of coaches over the course of the season. Now 156 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 6: this just opens him up even more to be evaluated 157 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 6: in those things TEXTA, A and M is loaded. 158 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 3: They're good. 159 00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 6: I mean, they have a really good team. They were 160 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 6: stum got the gate, but hats off to them and 161 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 6: Mike Elko, the head coach, for getting them back on track. 162 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 3: And finding a way to win. And you know, here's 163 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 3: the thing. 164 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 6: They not only won, but they really, I mean almost 165 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 6: gave South Carolina a chance to win the game. 166 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 3: At the end. 167 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 6: They're down at the goal line and they run a 168 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 6: trick play that goes awry, and they gave South Carolina 169 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 6: one final opportunity to move the ball down the field 170 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 6: in an attempt to kick a game winning field goal, 171 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 6: and they were just able to get the stop. But 172 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 6: I mean, this is one where the score is not 173 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 6: even an indication of how they dominated the second half. 174 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 2: I mean, so texaon A and M remains undefeated, ten 175 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: and zero, seven to zero the SEC and their quarterback 176 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 2: passed with something like four hundred and forty yards yesterday. 177 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 2: I don't get it. So South Carolina three and seven, 178 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: one and seven overall, and last year they were nine 179 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: and four. So he's in trouble, right, I mean, I 180 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: would think that they missed the bowl. They didn't go 181 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: to a bowl in twenty twenty three, and they're not 182 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 2: going to go to a bowl game this year. So 183 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: I think he's in trouble. That's just the way it is, right, 184 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 2: I think what the NIL has done for college coaches 185 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: at least go ahead. I'm sorry. 186 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 3: Generally, you're right he is in trouble. 187 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 6: NIO is certainly escalated, ramped up the pressure on coaches 188 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 6: to perform each and every weekend. If your team has 189 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 6: a down season, people are looking to move on because 190 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 6: they have. 191 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 3: So much invested. Before it was just an emotional investment. 192 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 6: Now it's an emotional and financial investment, which makes it 193 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 6: even harder when you underperform to retain your job. 194 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: Right, I agree, big us. Right now they think that 195 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: you could like turn it around in a season with 196 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: NIL just get the roster teams instead of doing Now Alabama, 197 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: right now the morning in Alabama today in Tuscaloosa, Oklahoma, Oklahoma, 198 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: all of a sudden's came back from the dead. I mean, 199 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: I can't believe what they did. They beat They beat Alabama, 200 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 2: say in Alabama twenty three, twenty one, and Alabama came 201 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 2: into the game tied for third nationally and fewest turnovers 202 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 2: six turnovers in the entire season, but they had three 203 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 2: against Oklahoma yesterday, all right, and they only had like 204 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 2: what two hundred and something? You are Oklahoma totally watching 205 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: the game. So their defense was unbelievable. The stop stay 206 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 2: they did in Alabama yesterday, I saw that tough deal. 207 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 2: I mean, knocking the ball out. They're just so tough 208 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: on defense yesterday. I hadn't seen Oklahoma do that early 209 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: in the season. They kind of ramped it up a 210 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 2: little bit yesterday. Yeah. 211 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 6: Credit Brent Venables for getting this team up and going. 212 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 6: There's a lot of conversation about him coaching for his 213 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 6: job at Oklahoma heading into the year, and he's put 214 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 6: together a fantastic run them for them to knock off Alabama, 215 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 6: and the way in which they were able to get 216 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 6: it done played great on both. 217 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 3: Sides of the ball. 218 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 6: They controlled the game for most of the game, and 219 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 6: then they made some plays when they really needed to, 220 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 6: when the game was hanging in the balance, they were 221 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 6: able to make some plays. Had to pick six, got 222 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 6: another turnover to set up a field goal. Oklahoma made 223 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 6: the plays and Alabama uncharacteristically turned the ball over. And 224 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 6: I know we're still making the adjustment to seeing this 225 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 6: Alabama team under Kaitlyn the ball after seeing it for 226 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 6: years and years and years under Nick Saban. But man, 227 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 6: just the turnovers, the mistakes that they made, we're not seeing. 228 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 6: We're not used to seeing Alabama beat themselves like they 229 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 6: beat themselves against Oklahoma. 230 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: Right he talked about a team that got beat up 231 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 2: pretty good yesterday. That was Texas, Georgia beat up and 232 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: I'm pretty good thirty five to ten. Now, let's talk 233 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: about Texas for a second. Right now. They came in 234 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: with all the hype and arch manning whatever it may be. 235 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: Texas now is seven and three overall, four and two 236 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 2: in the SEC. I would tell you right here and 237 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: now that they don't look like a college football playoff 238 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: team right as far as I'm concerned. And they got 239 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: two games to go, and I'm not even sure they 240 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: could win those two games. They got Arkansas and Texas 241 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 2: A and M left in the final two weeks. Those 242 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: teams they got to beat them both with some help 243 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: to get into the playoffs. At seven and three, I 244 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 2: don't think they're going postseason this year, I just don't. 245 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: I don't. And the hype, the hype that came with 246 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:53,359 Speaker 2: Texas coming into the season, you know, just fools gold 247 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 2: h Yeah. 248 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: I mean, look, it was a team that was hype. 249 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 6: I mean, think about two of the teams that were 250 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 6: hyped the most penn State in Texas, both are flounder. 251 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 6: Andy won't have an opportunity to participate in the playoff 252 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 6: with Texas. The hype was magnified by the fact that 253 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 6: you had a quarterback Arch Manning who was expected to 254 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 6: be the number one overall pick in next year's draft. 255 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 6: That's not going to happen. And the hype that went 256 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 6: around that preceded him in terms of being a Heisman 257 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 6: Trophy candidate also is not going to happen because he 258 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 6: hasn't played up to that level. And what you've seen 259 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 6: is he's a young quarterback that is still developed and 260 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 6: still needs to kind of acclimate to the level that 261 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 6: he's playing. Gap and the other parts around him have 262 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 6: not been able to mask his deficiencies, whether it's that 263 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 6: offense in terms of running the football, whether it's the 264 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 6: playmakers around trying to turn some of those short passes 265 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 6: into big games, or the defense being able to keep 266 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 6: the score down until the offense can find the rhythm. 267 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 6: Texas just has not been able to play a high 268 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 6: level of conflimentary football to mask the deficiencies of a 269 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 6: quarterback that's not quite ready to be a franchise guy. 270 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: Okay, I have an apology to make. Okay, I was questioning. 271 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: I think it was last week with you like where 272 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: Notre Dame was in the polls. Okay, I apologize. Yeah, 273 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: Notre Dame right now, it deserves everything. They got eight 274 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: straight wins, eight straight wins by double digits. They took 275 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: care of twenty second ranked pit yesterday thirty seven fifteen, 276 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: and right now, the two losses that they had early 277 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 2: on in the year, forget about that. They're eight and 278 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 2: two and I think this team, I think, honestly they 279 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 2: have a legitimate shot maybe to go into the championship game. 280 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 2: I really believe that Notre Dame has really put it 281 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: all together. I love Notre Dame right now, eight and 282 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 2: two right now and winning, but winning big. That was 283 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 2: a challenge yesterday, twenty second ranked bit you know, on 284 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: the road. I thought that maybe they'd give Notre Dame 285 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: but a game Notre Dame just destroyed them. I mean, 286 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: they only had two hundred and something yards and offense 287 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 2: and I think it was something like, oh for thirteen 288 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 2: on third down conversions. 289 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 6: Yeah. No, So it's very interesting to look at that 290 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 6: and to kind of see how Notre Dame was able 291 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 6: to do it. They dominated in terms of the physicality 292 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 6: at the point of attack. Pittsburgh is a team to 293 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 6: kind of pride themselves and being bullies and all of that, 294 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 6: but Notre Dame. Notre Dame gave them the business right 295 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 6: from the jump. And I think the thing that's most 296 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 6: impressive about Notre Dame on this run is and back 297 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 6: to back years they've had to get up off the 298 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 6: matt and find their way back into the conversation. That 299 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 6: comes from Marcus Freeman being able to really inspire and 300 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 6: lead his team, to lead them out of the storm, 301 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 6: to bounce back from the adversity, to fix a defense 302 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 6: that people were really tearing apart early in the year. 303 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 6: That's him and he has become one of the best 304 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 6: coaches in college football. 305 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,359 Speaker 3: Through the fire. That is a big. 306 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 6: Job, that is a job that is not for the 307 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 6: fan of heart, and he's been able to not only 308 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 6: take that job and elevated over his predecessor Brian Kelly. 309 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 6: But man, he has made this team into a hardened 310 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 6: team that can be any team that they face on 311 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 6: the road, at home, neutral, or whatever. 312 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 3: This is a really good Notre Dame team. 313 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 2: You know, speaking of Marcus Freeman, you know, you don't 314 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 2: hear him as far as quotes, controversy, you know, pointing fingers. 315 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: You know, they just go about their business and they win. 316 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: I mean, every week you'll hear a quote from a coach, 317 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 2: whoever it may be, of Miami, Florida, Georgia Kirby. I mean, 318 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: all these guys, Glenn Kiffin, that everybody's talking. Everybody has 319 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: something to say. I don't hear much out of Note 320 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: Your Dame except the score is true? Is that just me? 321 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 2: I think just the way there's a kind of a 322 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 2: very button up operation. Go out there, do their business, 323 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 2: win on the field, and that's the end of it. 324 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I think that's a good way to 325 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 6: kind of put it. They do kind of just go 326 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 6: about their business and make it happen. The thing that 327 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 6: I love about Freeman he has a humanity about him. 328 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 6: He's been around winning programs, he did a terrific job 329 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 6: being the defensive coordinator at Cincinnati, and then even the 330 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 6: defensive coordinator earlier Notre Dame before taking over for Brank Kelly. 331 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: He just has a way about him. 332 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 6: And he's so grounded in his leadership ability and grounded 333 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 6: and really serving the kids that he does that the 334 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 6: ego doesn't get in the way. But I think if 335 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 6: you look, you'll find some things that are that apposted 336 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 6: quotes that he said, but I think they're all said 337 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 6: in the context of the team and serving the players, 338 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 6: which is why his humility works, because the players certainly 339 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 6: respect that. He doesn't make the program about him. He 340 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 6: makes it about them. That's why they played for a 341 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 6: mart right. 342 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 2: You talk about Bill O'Brien, Now, he almost had a 343 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: big upset yesterday at Boston College. Boston College was leading 344 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: Georgia Tech twenty eight to seventeen in the second half 345 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: and they lost thirty six thirty four. And I look 346 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 2: at that some of the highlights of that game. I 347 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 2: just think that there are some teams and they only 348 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: had one win going into the game. Anyway, they just 349 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 2: don't know how to win. They don't know how to close. 350 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 2: We see it in the NFL. I mean the last 351 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: several years before we sort of change the coaches in 352 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 2: Los Angeles. With that, then San Diego Chargers couldn't close. 353 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 2: They had leads in the third and fourth quarter. They 354 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: always lost ball games. You know. The New York Football 355 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: Giants are doing that this year. They can't close. Boston 356 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 2: College had the game, they couldn't close it out. They 357 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: don't know how to close it out. I think there's 358 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: a key to do that. I don't think that's coaching. 359 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: I just think that's individuals, DNA, you know, knowing that 360 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: we're going to win this game, and in the fact 361 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: that they know that they've never done that before, they 362 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: can't do it. Am I wrong about that? I don't 363 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 2: think I am. They just don't know how to close 364 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 2: it out. They can't win. 365 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think there is an art to 366 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 6: winning and you do have to learn how to do it. 367 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 6: And it's not only you talked about. It's repped in practice. 368 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 6: It's talked about again in games. And then it comes 369 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 6: down to the execution. Because we could talk about the 370 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 6: coaches to talk about hey man, these games come down 371 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 6: to effort, toughness in execution, and people can play hard. 372 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 6: You can have great physicality and toughness, mental toughness, all 373 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 6: of that, but if you can't execute under pressure the 374 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 6: simple things when the pressure rises, and it's hard to 375 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 6: win consistently. And the hardest thing for a coach to 376 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 6: do is to get players to do the routine things 377 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 6: routinely when the game is on the line, and it 378 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 6: takes a confidence and a poise and composure from the players. 379 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 6: It takes the same qualities from the coaches. But it's 380 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 6: a very, very difficult task to do. And it's one 381 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 6: of those things that if the players can buy and 382 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 6: if they can never master those tip tricks or tactics 383 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 6: that you have to have to kind of perform well 384 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 6: under pressure, then you can win. But if you can't, man, 385 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 6: it's the inconsistent performances in those high pressure, high leverage 386 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 6: moments that's what causes you to falter. 387 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 2: And I saw had yesterday with your school in North 388 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 2: Carolina against Wake Forest. I have my one eye on 389 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: wake Forest and one eye on North Carolina. I watched 390 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 2: that be guys, Bill Belichicks my guy, I love them, 391 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: and that had them. I mean, I'm not so certain 392 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 2: that Wake Forest was that much better than North Carolina, 393 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: but just stupid mistake, silly mistakes, mistackles just can't understand 394 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: and their quarterback. You know, I'm thinking this maybe on 395 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: way off base, I think that most football players, at 396 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 2: least receivers, they're so used to catching up ball off 397 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 2: a right handed quarterback instead of Geo who's a lefty. 398 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 2: And does that make a difference. I think it does. 399 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 2: I think then I used to maybe I'm crazy. I'm 400 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 2: looking for any excuse I can to see why North 401 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 2: Carolina can't win. 402 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 6: I'll say simply that Way Forest played better than them yesterday. 403 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 6: I mean from the first drive they got a sorry 404 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 6: unfortunate best where they picked up a fumble, They picked 405 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 6: up a fumble and scored that put them up seven 406 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 6: to zero, and then the mistackles and all those things 407 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 6: sometimes that happen in space. But you're right, the quarterback 408 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 6: hasn't played up to the expectation. Ge Lopez was a 409 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 6: transfer coming in from South Alabama and he hasn't been 410 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 6: where they thought that he would be in terms of 411 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 6: the axeed, this is making the playmaking that hasn't been. Now, 412 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 6: being a left handed quarterback, it matters a little bit, 413 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 6: but you work those things out over the course of 414 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 6: the summer and in training camp you get used to 415 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 6: the ball spinning in a different way. I don't think 416 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 6: it is that. I think if anything, has just been 417 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 6: a decision making and a lack of accuracy and consistency 418 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 6: from a guy that they expected to be a high 419 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 6: level quarterback. 420 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 2: Unbelievable.

Number One, your good friend Deon Sanders, University 465 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 2: of Colorado football coach at three and seven. They were 466 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 2: up this week. However, there's going to be an athletic 467 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 2: direat to shake up a Colorado and every time there's 468 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: an athletic threat to change into college, you got a 469 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 2: question about the coach's job security. New leadership comes in 470 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 2: and obviously the former athletic director is one who hired 471 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 2: Dion Sanders. What have you heard? What do you think? 472 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 2: I think he's in pretty good shape, although the record's 473 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,719 Speaker 2: not good. The fact that he brought in a lot 474 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 2: of money to sell out football games through on TV 475 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: almost every week, a lot of merch has been sold. 476 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: What do you think about Dion's future. 477 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 3: Ultimately, you're right. 478 00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 6: Whenever you have a new AD, they typically want to 479 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 6: have their own guy in place. And so next year, 480 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 6: going into the season, coach Prime has to know that 481 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 6: this team has performed better than they did this year 482 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 6: to not put himself in a situation where he could 483 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 6: have that difficult conversation with a new AD. You're right 484 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 6: also about the amount of notoriety, the amount of money. 485 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 6: The I would just say the attention that he's brought 486 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 6: to Colorado has all been positive. If you look around 487 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 6: the board, they'll tell you about their omissions, applications going. 488 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 3: Up, all that other stuff going up. 489 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 6: If you actually look at their record pre Dion and 490 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,479 Speaker 6: post Dion, his record is well beyond what Colorado had 491 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 6: experienced before. But anytime you have a change in leadership, 492 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 6: it kind of makes everything subject to change, and so 493 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 6: he has to understand that going into it, and his 494 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 6: team has performed better next season. 495 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: I will save anything. The saving grace for just about 496 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 2: every college coach right now is to buy out. I 497 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 2: mean they're gonna have to pay him something I think 498 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: like thirty four million dollars to buy out of there. 499 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 2: So you know, I'm sure Colorado has the money, but 500 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 2: you know, you know, running that check, it's just a 501 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 2: tough call to do that, the buyout. And then let 502 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 2: me ask you this, how did that get started? You know, 503 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 2: now I'm curious about buyouts. How did that come to pass? 504 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: And how did the athletic director's a college presidence permit 505 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 2: something like that to happen? With the buyout situation. 506 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 6: Well, I mean I think you should, like, like, you 507 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 6: have to protect the interests of your client when you 508 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 6: sign a contract. Otherwise, what's the point of signing the 509 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 6: contract if both parties aren't equally invested in the deal, 510 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 6: and if you make it one side of where the 511 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 6: school says, oh, we'll pay you eleven million, then at 512 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 6: their own requests at any time they're like, yeah, we 513 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 6: don't want to pay that anymore, and you're left holding 514 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 6: a bag. 515 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 3: That's not a contract, that's not a commitment. 516 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 6: So agents put that buyout in to protect their client, 517 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 6: to protect their coaches, and also to make it where 518 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 6: if a player leads, because remember eighties are mad that 519 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 6: coaches were leaving to go get other jobs, that they're 520 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 6: able to recoup some of the money when they depart. 521 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 6: So it was something that was supposed to be mutually beneficial. 522 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 6: But right now we hear a bunch of moaning and 523 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 6: complaining from the schools about having to pay a buyout 524 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 6: when they're also protected by the ballot as well. 525 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but here's the thing that I am confused 526 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: about with this buyout. Say a coach gets hired for 527 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 2: four years for one hundred thousand dollars just for argument's sake, 528 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 2: So he's getting twenty five thousand dollars a year, and 529 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: he gets fired after his second year. So the contract says, well, 530 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: we owe you fifty thousand because you're getting twenty five 531 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 2: thousand a year. That's not a buyout, that's a contract. 532 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 2: You got to fulfill the contract. You get rid of 533 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 2: the guy, he had two years left of the contract, 534 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 2: you're give him fifty grand. Now, like with Brian Kelly, 535 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 2: now he's suing. I guess LSU he's given once fifty 536 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: four million dollars. How does that money come up? I 537 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 2: don't get that. Where did that money come for this? 538 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 2: By the contract? 539 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 6: They were, yeah, that's what that was the final part 540 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 6: of the contract. And you're right, and so what has 541 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 6: happened we on our side, the media side, has made 542 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 6: it where we talk about the buyout like it said 543 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 6: different thing, when in essence, it's the contract you sign 544 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 6: under that that's how much money is remaining on the deal. 545 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 6: You owe him the money because that's what you agree to. 546 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 6: So it shouldn't even be a thing that is a 547 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 6: controversy because you agree to original contract which means you're 548 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 6: going to pay me x amount of dollars over x 549 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 6: amount of years. If you terminate me and I don't 550 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 6: work for the remaining part of the years, you still 551 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 6: owe me the money that we agree to. 552 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 3: That's what it is. 553 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 6: What LSU has attempted to do is they tried to 554 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 6: weasel their way out. They tried to negotiate a lesser 555 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 6: sum when he left, and then when they couldn't get that, 556 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 6: they tried to fire him for costs, meaning that there's 557 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 6: a reason why they were firing him that maybe violates 558 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 6: a more clause so they don't have to pay him 559 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 6: all of the money. When you sign the contract, you 560 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 6: just have to know that you need to pay the money. 561 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: They need to pay the money. 562 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of coaches, wron't getting fired anytime soon? Is 563 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 2: Mike Rabel and New England nine to two third staying 564 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 2: out against the Jets. They've now won eight straight games. 565 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 2: This guy, I don't know why he didn't win. Well, 566 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 2: I guess he did win to some Extenton, Tennessee. But 567 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 2: you know, he's got something. He's a little bit like 568 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 2: Dan Campbell in my mind. Maybe I'm way off based 569 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 2: on that. I just think he's that kind of a guy, hardheaded, tough, 570 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 2: commands the respect of the team, and he's just a 571 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 2: good guy and just does all his homework. And these 572 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 2: guys will go through a brick wall and where or 573 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 2: go through a fire of gasoline for this guy. Maybe 574 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 2: I'm wrong, but they were four and thirteen last year, 575 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 2: the Patriots, and when they don't judge Errod Mayo as 576 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 2: the coach, and now they're nine and two. This guy's 577 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 2: got to be the coach of the year. And I 578 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 2: can't believe the turnaround. But I guess Drake may has 579 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 2: a lot to do with that too, some of that. 580 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 6: But like, first, I want to give Mike Rabels flowers 581 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 6: because he's a great coach. And if you go back 582 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 6: and you look at the Patriots' own social media team 583 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 6: is documented. The first thing he did the first couple 584 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 6: months on the job is not only established to go to, 585 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 6: but he really worked on the connectivity with the players. 586 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 3: So often we think. 587 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 6: That this is a transactional experience. Hey, we paid this player, 588 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 6: he's going to come in and play well for us. 589 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 6: But at the end of the day, some of those. 590 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 3: Same ideas that we talk about in the Little League. 591 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 6: And Pop Warner, they still exist. You got to be 592 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 6: a great team, and the only way to be a 593 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 6: great team is you have to be connected, and you 594 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 6: have to have chemistry. And that chemistry exists from player 595 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 6: to player, coach to player, and coach to coach, and 596 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 6: Vrabel spent a lot of time working on that chemistry 597 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 6: amongst themselves, intentionally focusing on building relationships with his players. 598 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 6: So now when it comes time to coach them and 599 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 6: coach them hard, they know that you're doing it out 600 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 6: of place of love and not just out of a 601 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 6: place of criticism. 602 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 3: That's what he did. 603 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 6: Now, the coaching staff has done a great job of 604 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 6: building schemes and tactics for the players. They got a 605 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 6: bunch of new players, a bunch of veterans that came 606 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 6: over and helped Drake May is going to another level 607 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 6: because he's a diligent worker. And Josh McDaniels has really 608 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 6: put together scheme that is I would say, showcase his talents. 609 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 6: But that's everything, man, It's that whole environment that they've 610 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 6: created up in New England that has them playing well 611 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 6: and really has them looking like the number one team 612 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 6: in football. 613 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. I said one thing about Mike Rabel. He coached 614 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans for six years. He took them to 615 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 2: the playoffs three times. But here's the caveat to that. 616 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 2: He took them to the playoffs three times without a 617 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 2: franchise quarterback. I would say Drake May right now, and 618 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 2: I don't think I'm speaking out of school. Drake May 619 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 2: is going to be a franchise quarterback. I do believe 620 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 2: he's going to be a franchise quarterback. Okay. Now, I 621 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 2: want to get back to what Brie, our executive producer, 622 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 2: kind of lives for, and I'm talking about the New 623 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 2: Orleans Saints. You love the Saints. I know you do. 624 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: I don't know why, but you're a Saints fan. Okay, 625 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 2: but they're on pace to one of the worst seasons 626 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 2: since the turn of the century. Really, they're two and eight. 627 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 2: They're tied with the New York Football Giants for the 628 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 2: lowest swinning percentage in the NFC, and they're going to 629 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: miss the playoffs right now for a fifth consecutive season. Okay, Now, 630 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, the fans are going crazy, all right, 631 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: and I think rightfully. So, you know, fans pay and 632 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: they have every right to complain. Media does it. Why 633 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 2: can't the fans do it? So? Their owner, Gaile Benson 634 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: says that their general manager, Mickey Loomis is in good shape. 635 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: You know. Gail Benson tells The New Orleans Times, picking 636 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 2: a newspaper, that the idea of firing Mickey Loomis is 637 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,239 Speaker 2: out of the question. It's ridiculous. I don't get it. 638 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: And she said it may not be what the fans 639 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 2: want to hear, but as far as firing Mickey Loomis, 640 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 2: that's ridiculous, says Gail Benson. He does a great job. 641 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: I don't understand why ownership would even have to respond 642 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 2: to that. Every fan has every right in the world 643 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 2: to complain. Look, they buy tickets, and when teams lose, 644 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: what do they do. They either go to games or 645 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 2: bags over their heads or they don't go to the 646 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 2: games at all. Now, all of a sudden, there's going 647 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: to be a riff between management, ownership and what the 648 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 2: fans do. This team is terrible, Bri I hate to 649 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 2: do that to you, but the team stinks. The New 650 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 2: Orleans Saints are terrible. There's no doubt in my mind. 651 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 2: They're just not a good team. Not playing today. Maybe 652 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: that's a good thing to people and that that whole 653 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 2: city right now. The basketball teams just fired their coach 654 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 2: to Pelicans, and the Saints are just as bad. It's bad. 655 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 2: It's a bad situation. So I asked Bucky Brooks, you know, 656 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 2: you've been on some teams that maybe weren't up to snuff. 657 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: Fans go crazy. They have every right to do. So 658 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: why are the New Orleans Saints and their ownership kind 659 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 2: of put pushing back on the fans and the fans 660 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 2: doing what they're gonna do. They're eventually gonna fire Mickey Loomis. 661 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 2: So the fans got it right, they do. 662 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 3: I don't know. 663 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 6: I don't know if they are going to eventually fire 664 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 6: Mickey Loomis. He's in charge of both teams, the Pelicans 665 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 6: and the Saints. He does a lot behind the scenes, 666 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 6: and I know we always talk about general managers, the 667 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 6: team building part of it, the player personnel, acquisitions and. 668 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 3: Trades and all that. 669 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 6: But there's a lot that is on his plate, and 670 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 6: the best teams have continuity. They don't make decisions hastily. 671 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 6: They don't make emotional decisions when it comes to terminating 672 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 6: people or moving around management pieces. So I applaud her 673 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 6: for saying, hey, they have all the confidence in the 674 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 6: world in them because they have had a level of 675 00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 6: success with him. 676 00:30:59,240 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 3: It's not great. 677 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 6: The product on the field isn't great, and he has 678 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 6: to be responsible for that, him and the coaches and that. 679 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 6: But you have to give this new coaching staff and 680 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 6: these new people time to see if they can fix it. 681 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 6: So I understand why she's so adamant and saying, hey, 682 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 6: he's not going anywhere now. He has to make her 683 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 6: right by finding a way to make sure that they 684 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 6: show significant growth and turn around next season. 685 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: Last time they did something good was back in twenty 686 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: seventeen when they drafted Trey Hendrickson and Alvin Kamara. That's basically, 687 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: and I get it. They don't have a quarterback. You 688 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: gotta get a quarterback. You don't have a franchise school. 689 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 6: You don't have a quarterback. If you don't have a quarterback, 690 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 6: you don't have a chance. You don't have a quarterback, 691 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 6: you don't have a chance. That's just a nature of elitue. 692 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: No shock, We're gonna tell it, Brit. I'm sorry to 693 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: say that, but it's true. They're terrible. 694 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a really rough segment to go through. 695 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm gonna move on now because there's another 696 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: team that's two and eight and it's the New York 697 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: Football Giants. They're also two and eight and they fired 698 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 2: their coach this week, Brian Dable. Okay, now the Giants 699 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: host of package today and Jameis Winston is going to start. 700 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 2: Tell me that what I'm scratching my head? Why is 701 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 2: Jamis Winston starting? What happened to Jackson Dart who was 702 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 2: doing so well? And what about Russell Wilson? What is 703 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: going on with the Giants? You know, as far as 704 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: coaching is concerned, they haven't not a winner. They better 705 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: pick a coach now because they have not a winning coach? 706 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 2: Is Tom Coughlin? Why is that? And why is Jameis 707 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: Winston starting today for the Giants? I don't get it? 708 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 2: Against Green Bay no. 709 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 6: Less well, when you cycled through so many different coaches, 710 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 6: that tells you that it's a bigger level of dysfunction 711 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 6: amongst your organization. It's not just coach to players. There's 712 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 6: something else that is going wrong, whether that's the management team, 713 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 6: whether it's. 714 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 3: The overall culture in the building. Something is wrong with 715 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 3: the New York Giants. 716 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 6: Because you keep changing the people at the top and 717 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 6: nothing changes on the field. Brian dave All had a 718 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 6: great run early and then it fizzled. The longer he's there, 719 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 6: the worst he got. And we can say the same 720 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 6: for the other coaches that preceded on Ben McAdoo, Joe Judge, 721 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 6: others like it. It just hasn't hasn't been a good 722 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 6: look for the Giants, So they have to look at 723 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 6: the entire operation. When they make the change at the 724 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 6: end of the season, and Joe Shane's going to be 725 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 6: there as a general manager, they'll bring in a new coach. 726 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 6: But whoever the new coach is, he has to right 727 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 6: the wrongs of the entire organization, and that means that 728 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 6: it probably needs to be someone who's already been a 729 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 6: head coach before they've done this thing where they've tried 730 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 6: these new hot coordinators. They've tried everybody from the offensive 731 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 6: side of the ball, because that's what everyone says that 732 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 6: you have to have. It's about the quarterback and the 733 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 6: play call or whatever, but it's not. Head coach needs 734 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 6: to be the head coach of the team and the 735 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 6: organization has to be the visionary to set the standard 736 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 6: for what the team is going to do each and 737 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 6: every day. So I look for someone that is experienced. 738 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 6: I may not be a sexy name, but it might 739 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 6: be somebody like a Mike McCarthy who has been a 740 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 6: head coach multiple times, had a level of success multiple spots. 741 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 6: Someone who knows the job and can focus on the 742 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 6: job and knows what everything around the job should look like. 743 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 6: That's how they have tired, because that's the only way 744 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 6: to confess it. We've been in the same situation three years. 745 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 6: You'll be telling me who are they fired? Who's going 746 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 6: to be the next head coach for the New York guys, 747 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 6: it's the same deal and the terms of Jamis Winston starting. 748 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 6: No one in the building believes in Russell Wilson evidently, 749 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 6: so now they won hand the ball to Jameis Winston. 750 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 6: They don't believe that Russell can't play anymore, that his 751 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 6: player has fallen off to the point where he doesn't 752 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 6: give them a chance as a short term starter. That's 753 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 6: why they giving it to Jameis Winston, because the one 754 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 6: thing we know that James is gonna do. He may 755 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 6: throw them in the game, but he also may throw 756 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 6: them out the game, but he is going to go 757 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 6: down as a gunslinger. 758 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 2: I want to do this very quickly if I can. 759 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 2: I got the last seven coaches of the New York 760 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 2: Football Giants. Brian Daviel just got fired as regular as 761 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 2: twenty forty and one, then be going down the list. 762 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 2: Joe Judge ten and twenty three, Pat Schumer nine to 763 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 2: twenty three, Steve Spagnola won in three, Ben mcadu thirteen 764 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 2: and fifteen, Tom Coflin one, O two and ninety with 765 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 2: two Super Bowl wins, and Jim Fossel fifty eight and 766 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: fifty three. How do you like that? Get it right, Giants? 767 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: Get it right. He's Bucky Brooks. He always gets it right. 768 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 2: On Andy Firman, we are Fox Football Sunday in Foxborts 769 00:34:55,880 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: Radio time for answers. Why it's Bucky, It's next? Oh, 770 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: It's that time. It's time for ass Bucky. Right now, 771 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: it's about oh, twelve minutes before the top of the hour. 772 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 2: This is Fox Football something on Fox Bus Radio. E's 773 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks, I mean Andy Furman and went alive on the 774 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 2: Fox Plus radio studios and breathe Do you have anything 775 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 2: for Bucky? For ass Bucky. 776 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 4: Let's see, I do have one question, Bucky. All right, 777 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 4: let's go Okay, well, I actually have a few questions. 778 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 5: Okay, how is Jacksonville's offense going to adjust without Travis Hunter? 779 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 5: And how much does Jacoby Myers play a role because 780 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 5: they're hosting the Chargers today. 781 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, big game, big bounce back game for the jack 782 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 6: Wars on the horizon. The way that the plan was 783 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 6: originally laid out is Travis Hunter was gonna be the 784 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 6: number one. When he got hurt, it kind of forced 785 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 6: him to do a reshuffle of the wide receiver corps. 786 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 6: Brian Thomas Junior is still gonna play a significant role. 787 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 6: He'll get a ton of targets, but most of the 788 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 6: things that you'll see from him probably be vertical down 789 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 6: the field. In those things, Parker Washington stepped up in 790 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 6: Travis Hunter's role previously, he'll operate in and out of 791 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 6: the slide, do some of the middlefield. Jacoby Minds is 792 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 6: a guy that if I was in fantasy, I'll account 793 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 6: on him getting a lot of touches because he is 794 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 6: someone that is dependable and reliable when it comes to 795 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 6: catching the ball. Because he's such a dependable and reliable 796 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,760 Speaker 6: pass catcher for the Jaguars, who lead the National Football 797 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 6: League and drops, he should go to the top of 798 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 6: the charts. And they're gonna do this by committee. They're 799 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 6: gonna be able to kind of spread it around and 800 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 6: do those things where you ride the hot hand. But 801 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 6: I would think Myers in Washington will get a bunch 802 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 6: of targets, and then BTJ, we'll get a bunch of 803 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 6: targets down the field for those big play opportunities. 804 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 5: And then my next one was do you think the Packers' 805 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 5: offensive struggles are something they can get over as we 806 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 5: get closer to the postseason. 807 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 6: You know, they're such a weird team because this is 808 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 6: a team that many of us we expected them to dominate, 809 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 6: be a Super Bowl contender, and they can be with 810 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 6: their defense. Officially, it's just been a disappointment. They just 811 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 6: haven't been able to consistently get what they need from 812 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 6: Jordan Love or the rest of the offense. And I 813 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 6: know injuries are beginning to set in where you're losing. 814 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 6: I can't for these people, Jayden Reid, you lostuck A Craft, 815 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 6: you lose Elpson, Jenkins and those things. But they're still 816 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 6: good enough where they should be better. This is something 817 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 6: with Matt lafoy is gonna have to get in the 818 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 6: lab and find a way to get this quarterback unlocked. 819 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 6: Because if you can unlock Love, he'll unlock all of 820 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 6: the offense. So it's about the quarterback and the head 821 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 6: coach getting on the same page. 822 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 5: I also thought Matthew Golden was Sorry Andy, but Matthew 823 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 5: Golden was going to be more of like a prominent 824 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 5: feature and I just haven't seen that this season. 825 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm with you on that. Look, he hasn't been. 826 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 6: He hasn't been what we thought they did. They finally 827 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 6: listened to the fans and draft the first round receiver 828 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 6: and he's done nothing, nothing of significance for them. I mean, 829 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 6: maybe they should stick to their own guts and not 830 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 6: let the fans pick the players for him and. 831 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 2: Let me ended at dandem to that question for you, 832 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 2: Brit big Gust. The Packers are playing the Giants at 833 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,760 Speaker 2: the Giants Todayosh Jacobs will go crazy today against that defense. 834 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 2: Against the Giants. You'll see he'll he'll run for two 835 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 2: hundred plus. Yes, today that I promise. Do you agree 836 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: with me on that booksh Jacobs big Gabe today? Yeah? 837 00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 6: Maybe maybe. Maybe. 838 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 3: Here's the thing. 839 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,280 Speaker 6: The days gonna play with a little different, different energy 840 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 6: because you got a new coach, So I wouldn't just 841 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 6: kind of pencil the package in to have a laugher 842 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 6: against him. But yeah, I understand what you're saying. Josh 843 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 6: Jacobs has to be the focal point when he's running. 844 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,760 Speaker 6: It just makes everything easy. I think they will focus 845 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 6: on trying to get them the ball and see if 846 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 6: he can help kind of settle this to stabilize the offense. 847 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm moving to baseball, and I got a baseball question, 848 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 2: and you got to explain this to me, because I 849 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,479 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not the smartest guy in the world, 850 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 2: that's for sure. Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul skeins He wins 851 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 2: the Cy Young Award. He had a ten and ten record. 852 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 2: He had thirty two stars. He pitched one hundred and 853 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 2: eighty seven innings, two hunder sixties, strikeout if one ninety seven. However, 854 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 2: Freddy Peralta of the Brewers was seventeen and six. He 855 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 2: started thirty three games, hundred seventy six innings, two hundred 856 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 2: and four k's with a two seventy RA. Why was 857 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 2: Parolta not the cy young winner and Paul Skeens was? 858 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: I don't get it. Help me out. 859 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 6: I think Paul Skeens played with a much uh played 860 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 6: with a team that couldn't give him much support, and 861 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 6: if you watched him, you felt as dominance. He just 862 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 6: didn't get enough support to get the wins. And I 863 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 6: give it to the voters for not necessarily just going 864 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 6: off the box score. They decided to dig deep and 865 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 6: really watch the games and do those things. 866 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 3: That's why you want it. 867 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 6: I mean, if you want to give it to the 868 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 6: best pitcher on the best team, you could have given 869 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 6: it to my guy front of Brewers. But this was 870 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 6: one Schemes deserved it because of how Dominante was. He 871 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 6: just didn't get any support. 872 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I buy that. No problem about that. Speak of 873 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 2: a baseball right now, how would you handle this betting 874 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 2: ring that's going on in Major League Baseball, because I 875 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 2: think it's put a real bad cloud, a black cloud 876 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 2: over major League Baseball. 877 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 6: It has and unfortunately, like that's what happens when you're 878 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 6: getting paid with the sports books and the gamblers and 879 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 6: all those things, like some of that is going to happen. 880 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 6: You have some crossover people gonna be aggressive, trying to 881 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 6: get the players and trying to do all that stuff. 882 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 6: Is something that you can talk about, something that you 883 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 6: hope that everyone pays attention to. This unfortunate, it's unfortunate 884 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 6: that we've seen these incidents. 885 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 2: They're getting in bed with the mob. I'm seeing on 886 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,720 Speaker 2: videos like the pitches that were thrown for five thousand bucks, 887 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 2: a pitch that they bounced before home plate. I mean, 888 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, why would a guy do that if he's 889 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 2: getting a contract for fifty mil simply because he's in 890 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 2: bed with the mob, and the mom says, you don't 891 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 2: do that, we're gonna blow your head off. I'm sure 892 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 2: that's what happened. That's what happened there. But anyway, we 893 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 2: move on to play or not to play, that's the question, 894 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 2: and it's yours, and we'll have that in more on 895 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday next. 896 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 897 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 1: the nation.

That game in 914 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 2: Berlin between the Colts and the Falcons. Okay, it was 915 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 2: the fifth time this year in the NFL that the 916 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 2: game went into overtime, and they overtime started with a 917 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,280 Speaker 2: lot of confusion, the referee had the Colts player called 918 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: the coin to us, although the Falcons were the visiting team, 919 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 2: and when the coin was tossed again, the Falcons won 920 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 2: it and they chose to receive the ball. And it 921 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 2: was the second straight overtime game in which the team 922 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 2: that won the coin tours elected to receive after the 923 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 2: team with the decision the first three overtime games decided 924 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 2: to kick off. And you know, Jacksonville Jaguars beat the 925 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 2: Vegas Raiders on overtime and week number nine, I believe 926 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 2: that was when they received the ball first. What's the 927 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 2: best thing to do? Why do you receive it? When 928 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 2: you win the tors? Do you want to receive? You 929 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 2: want what's the deal when you do the point to us? 930 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 2: And then over time, what's the best thing to. 931 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,240 Speaker 6: Do well with the rules, because both teams get a possession. 932 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 6: If you're able to get the ball first and run 933 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,240 Speaker 6: down all the clock and score, it puts the second 934 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 6: team in a bad situation because now you're talking about 935 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 6: by three minutes of fewer that you have to drive 936 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 6: the Linds the field and score a touchdown. 937 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 3: That's why you want to do it now? 938 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 6: I mean if you go three and out, it's bad 939 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,320 Speaker 6: for you on the thing. But that's why some people 940 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 6: are electing to take it. The people that defer, they 941 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 6: want to know exactly what they have to what they 942 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 6: need to win the game. So do I need a 943 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 6: field goal? Do I need a touchdown? So you would 944 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 6: rather put your defense out there see what the other 945 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 6: team does if they score or not. 946 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 3: Okay, this is how we need to counter that. 947 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 6: And you know, so it looks it's six on one hand, 948 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:48,399 Speaker 6: half a dozen on the other hand. 949 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 3: It just the execution is what matters. 950 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 6: But those are the thoughts behind why people elect to 951 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 6: take it or to kick off. 952 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 2: John. I remember, from like nineteen seventy four through twenty ten, 953 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 2: I believe it was the NFL had sudden death, in 954 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: which the first team to score any points would win 955 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 2: the game. So teams that would win the coin to 956 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 2: us would always, for just about all the time, would 957 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: choose to receive the ball to begin the overtime period 958 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 2: because if you score, you win with the sudden death. 959 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 2: I used to like the sudden death, but I guess 960 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 2: it's a lot fairer this way. 961 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent. 962 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 6: I mean it's a lot fairer this way because like 963 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 6: both teams at least get the ball. That was the 964 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 6: big point of contention in the past. You know, one 965 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,479 Speaker 6: team would push the game into overtime they get the kick, 966 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 6: and the other the opponent would never touch it again. 967 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 6: Now that both teams have an opportunity to touch it, 968 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 6: get you get the ball, and what you do with 969 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 6: it ultimately determins who's to win who's the loser. 970 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Now I cannot believe that we are starting week 971 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 2: eleven in the National Football I wish I could put 972 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 2: the brakes on it a little bit because you wait 973 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,879 Speaker 2: so long. You're kind of like like a dog looking 974 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 2: for his next meal with the tongue hanging out, and 975 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 2: next thing you know, it's going to be over. But 976 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 2: Rik eleven and tay you The CINCINNTI Bengals at three 977 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 2: and six, believe it or not, still have a life 978 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 2: and they're playing at Pittsburgh. They're five and four. So 979 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 2: many questions in this game, and I'm gonna run one 980 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 2: at a time. First of all, the rumors with Mike Tomlin, 981 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 2: I'm here and now they want Mike tom at the 982 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 2: coach the Giants, Are you kidding? I mean, come on, really, 983 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 2: First of all, he's got another year or two left 984 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,919 Speaker 2: on his contract to Pittsburgh. Why would he leave Pittsburgh. 985 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,439 Speaker 2: They've been so loyal to him, He's done so well there, 986 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 2: never had a losing season. Why would he go to 987 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 2: the Giants. I don't get it. I mean, really, who 988 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:26,720 Speaker 2: starts these things? 989 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 6: Well, I mean I think it's like wishful think, and 990 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 6: I think there's some people in Pittsburgh that wish Mike 991 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 6: Tomlin would leave, and so that's a nice way of 992 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 6: being able to do it, like hey, Witch, rading to 993 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 6: the Giants and we get some picks back and we 994 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,240 Speaker 6: can start a new Also, there are people that are 995 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 6: looking and recognizing and appreciating what he's done for so 996 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 6: long in terms of the stability or the organization and 997 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 6: saying that's exactly what the New York Giants need. They 998 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 6: need someone who understands the importance of stability, consistency, being 999 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 6: able to do the same thing over time so the 1000 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:54,800 Speaker 6: team can get better. 1001 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:55,919 Speaker 3: That is why. 1002 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 6: But look, the contract makes it very very difficult to 1003 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 6: move off of him. Us have multiple years left on 1004 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 6: his deal. He's always signed these extensions in secret. That 1005 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,720 Speaker 6: kind of fortify his abuilding and standing amongst the team. 1006 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 6: So yes, look it's a conversation. It's nice clickbait, but 1007 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 6: there's a little to. 1008 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 2: It, right, And speaking of coaching the Giants, I think 1009 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 2: that Bill Belichick's name came up there as well, because 1010 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 2: at one point in time he was a defensive coordinator there. 1011 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,760 Speaker 2: He basically said the other day out of North Carolina 1012 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,760 Speaker 2: that he's not going there. He staying in North Carolina. 1013 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 2: I think reason being obviously it would look it's a 1014 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 2: bad move number one, but number two, I think he 1015 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 2: wants his son to take over when he leaves North Carolina, 1016 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 2: who is not a defensive coordinator down there, to be 1017 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 2: the next head coach in North Carolina. I don't think 1018 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 2: that's going to happen, but I think that's what he's 1019 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 2: dreaming for. 1020 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:44,879 Speaker 6: I mean, we all have dreams, and as for racis 1021 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 6: for our kiddos, and so maybe that is the dream. 1022 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,359 Speaker 6: The main thing. I don't think the Giants were gonna 1023 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 6: seriously consider Belichick for the role anyway, but it's nice 1024 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 6: to put that statement out because he wanted to make 1025 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,319 Speaker 6: sure that didn't negatively impact recruit or anything like that. 1026 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 6: The Giant situation is just interesting because we talked about 1027 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 6: the job. We talked about the kind of candidates that 1028 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 6: have been in the job. Routinely, it's been offensive guys, 1029 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 6: first time head coaches that they've done everything to try 1030 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,280 Speaker 6: and build around a quarterback. Maybe they'll take a different approach, 1031 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 6: Maybe they'll take the quote unquote leader of men type, 1032 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 6: someone that doesn't call the offensive defense. 1033 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 3: But it's more the CEO I should operate, Or. 1034 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 6: It's gonna be someone who has been a head coach before, 1035 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 6: who knows exactly what he's doing. He's learned from the 1036 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 6: mistakes that he previously had, and he does better in 1037 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 6: a second or third Op's. 1038 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 2: First, all right, now, then not? The next question is 1039 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 2: surrounding this game today, which I have the Aaron Rodgers situation. 1040 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 2: I gotta believe right now he's been somewhat of a disappointment. 1041 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 2: I know the team is five and four. He's shown 1042 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 2: some some bright spots, but then again, I think with 1043 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,959 Speaker 2: DK Metcalf over there on the Steelers, he's been somewhat 1044 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 2: of a disappointment simply because of Aaron Rodgers. DK Metcalf 1045 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 2: has only had three to two reception for some like 1046 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 2: five hundred yards This year, and I think part of 1047 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 2: the reason being that Aaron Rodgers has not delivered the 1048 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 2: ball tam. 1049 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean part of it. 1050 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 6: And the reason why Aaron can delivered is because he 1051 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 6: wants the ball to come out so quickly. You know, 1052 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 6: one of the things with Aaron Rodgers and older quarterbacks 1053 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 6: in general, is they. 1054 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 3: Don't want to get hit. 1055 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 6: They don't want to get hit in the pocket, so 1056 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 6: the ball comes out fast. 1057 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 3: Well, if the ball's coming. 1058 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 6: Out quickly, that means you can't push the ball down 1059 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 6: the field because you're not giving. 1060 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 3: The routes enough time to develop. 1061 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 6: And when you have that, you're taking away the strengths 1062 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 6: of DK Metcalf's game because you're taking someone who has 1063 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 6: been kind of groomed to be a deep ball specialist, 1064 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 6: a big play threat in those things, and now you're 1065 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 6: making him a dink and dunk receiver, catching hitches and slants. 1066 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:50,440 Speaker 3: And little things over run. They're not playing to DK's strengths. 1067 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,359 Speaker 6: And so when you have a quarterback Aaron Rodgers forty one, 1068 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,760 Speaker 6: forty two years old, these are some of the things 1069 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 6: that you have to sacrifice. 1070 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: And they knew that going in. I think they thought 1071 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 3: that it. 1072 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 6: Would work because the defense would be playing better, there 1073 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 6: would be in a bunch of low scoring affairs and 1074 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 6: Aaron would be able to make a play or two 1075 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 6: to put the game away in their favor. And it 1076 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 6: just hasn't played out like they thought. That's it. We're 1077 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 6: only nine games into it. They're sitting at five and four. 1078 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,440 Speaker 6: There's still time for them to turn it around. But 1079 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 6: the clock is ticking. They got to get going because 1080 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 6: the Baltimore Ravens are coming, and they're coming like a 1081 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 6: bread right. 1082 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of questions rounding this game, 1083 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 2: and I got thrown one more out there for you. 1084 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 2: You talked about the defense. There's been a disappointment. I'll 1085 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 2: tell you one of the reasons why. At least the 1086 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 2: back part of the defense, of the secondary and the safeties, 1087 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,879 Speaker 2: they're old. They're name players, but they're old. I think 1088 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 2: the age is caught up to them. Do you agree. 1089 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,040 Speaker 2: I think those players are old? 1090 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's played the part of it. 1091 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 6: When you have an old team, father time is undefeated 1092 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,439 Speaker 6: and they can show up at once, and it's shown 1093 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 6: up a little bit with the Stillers. 1094 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 3: The other thing that has hurt them. 1095 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 6: The Stillers thought that they were going to be a 1096 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 6: historic defense that could be a shut them down defense. 1097 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,720 Speaker 6: They would be able to lock up play manda man snuff, 1098 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 6: snuff out everything that you want to do, and make 1099 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 6: life miserable for it. They have found that they were 1100 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 6: giving up too many big plays playing man to man 1101 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,720 Speaker 6: because a man and man, if you missed the tackle, 1102 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 6: it becomes a bigger game because everyone doesn't have their 1103 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 6: eyes towards the quarterback and they don't see the ball thrown. 1104 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 3: Because they were giving up so many. 1105 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 6: Big plays, they had to change around, change personnel, move 1106 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 6: Jayalen Ramsey to free safety, bring Kyle Duggars over from 1107 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 6: New England, and get better. 1108 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 3: And so they've been better. 1109 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 6: In recent weeks, and I think what you see them 1110 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 6: do is get back to the blueprint, and the blueprint 1111 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 6: for them has been to be a zone based, zone 1112 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 6: pressure team. So they can bring pressure, but keep eyes 1113 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 6: on the quarterback and everything in front, reduce some of 1114 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 6: the big plays that are given up and still have 1115 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 6: the potential to harass the quarterback and produce the splash 1116 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 6: plays that have been a big part of their defensive history. 1117 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 2: Okay, we're leading off to the big question of this game. Okay, okay, 1118 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 2: we're almost there. The next thing is on the Bengals. 1119 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 2: Trey Hendrickson Henderson's hendricks is not playing today and their 1120 00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: first round draft pick, the defensive end, sham Mars Stewart, 1121 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 2: is not playing. Why they're injured. And again, believe it 1122 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 2: or not, those two guys will holdouts. And we talked 1123 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 2: about this before. Normally, when you're a holdout and you 1124 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 2: miss training camp, there's a good chance you're going to 1125 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 2: get injured during this season, and bingo, these two guys 1126 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 2: are there. I don't think it's a coincidence. I think 1127 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: that you just knew what was going to happen. Trey 1128 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 2: Hendrickson right now, held out for more money. He didn't 1129 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 2: got to practice, he missed a lot of it. He 1130 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 2: got his money, but he's not playing. This is the 1131 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 2: third week in the row now he's not going to play. 1132 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 2: And defensive en Jamar Stewart held out, so they're not 1133 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 2: playing today. He's got a bad knee, Hendrickson's got a 1134 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 2: bead neck. Whatever it may be. The bottom line is 1135 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 2: they're not playing and that's and believe me, part of 1136 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 2: the reason being they weren't in training camp. I still 1137 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 2: believe that. 1138 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean that's part of the reason. Yeah, those 1139 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 6: guys were in a training camp. But is that their fault. 1140 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:47,959 Speaker 6: Is that the team's fault? 1141 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 3: Oh no, no, No, he has enough time to sign 1142 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 3: Tree Hendrickson. 1143 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,839 Speaker 6: Trey Henderson has been pining for a deal the last 1144 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 6: two or three years and the Bengals wouldn't give him 1145 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 6: a deal even though he was more than worthy of 1146 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:04,399 Speaker 6: getting a contract whatever revision, and they didn't do it. 1147 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: And oh, there's no doubt. I mean, this is on 1148 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 2: the Bengals. He could have been playing if they signed 1149 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 2: them earlier, There's no doubt. 1150 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 6: Yeah and yeah, And whenever you have hold out situations 1151 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 6: in training camp, ultimately, man, it hurts the player because 1152 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 6: they can't get the same kind of preparation away from 1153 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 6: the facility that they can with the facility. And those 1154 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 6: players have not been available because they have suffered injuries 1155 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 6: in those things that we can point it back to 1156 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 6: the training or improper training and those things. But I 1157 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 6: would just say, like with the Bengals, the Bengals are 1158 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 6: frustrating just because they do moves that just make you 1159 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 6: scratch your head, right, So they're blaming all of the 1160 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,200 Speaker 6: defensive les last year on lou Ana Roumo, like the 1161 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 6: defensive coordinator could do anything with the slot that they 1162 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 6: gave him on that side of the ball. 1163 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 3: And now they swap it out. 1164 00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 6: They bring Al Golden, who's a really good defensive coach, 1165 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 6: but he's finding the same issues. 1166 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 3: Hey man, how are you trying to get me to 1167 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 3: make chicken salad out this chicken poop that you've given me. 1168 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 6: You not give me the players. 1169 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 3: At the end of the day, you can be the 1170 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 3: greatest X and. 1171 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 6: OS coach, but without players, you're not going to win. 1172 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 6: And the Bengals stink on defense because they don't have 1173 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 6: enough players to be able to do it, no. 1174 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 2: Doubt about that. And now here's the big story of 1175 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 2: the day. As I mentioned coming into the segment to 1176 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 2: play or not to play, Joe Burrow was a practice 1177 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,680 Speaker 2: the other day tossing okay, and he's basically hinting that 1178 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 2: he could maybe come back by Thanksgiving. And the big 1179 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 2: question right now is that the pros and the cons 1180 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 2: should he come back? Should he not come back? You know, 1181 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 2: they lose today, they're three and six, they're three and 1182 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 2: seven after they were lost today. Next week they got 1183 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 2: in New England, they'll be three and eight if they lose, 1184 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 2: basically out of the picture. And you know, I've been 1185 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,319 Speaker 2: asked the question. I said, wait a minute. Pros get 1186 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 2: paid to play. You're a probe because you have that 1187 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 2: desire to play and to win, and Joe Burrow wants 1188 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 2: to play, wants to win. I believe if he gets 1189 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,320 Speaker 2: the clearance for medical people and he wants to play, 1190 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,279 Speaker 2: he'll play. Not a Bengals organization may not want it 1191 00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 2: to play because they're afraid to get injured again. But 1192 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 2: you know what, injuries are part of the game. That's 1193 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 2: just the way it is. I think that we will 1194 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:04,359 Speaker 2: see Joe Burrow play regardless of the Bengals record, even 1195 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 2: if they're out of contention for the division. Do you agree? 1196 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 6: Yes, I think he's gonna try and play, and I 1197 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 6: think if they're close enough, he's gonna make a difference. 1198 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,800 Speaker 6: Because there's no doubt that when Joe Burrow plays, the 1199 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 6: Bengals are a different team. 1200 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 3: That's it. 1201 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 6: You want to make sure you take every precaution as 1202 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 6: your franchised with the franchise quarterback to ensure that he's 1203 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:26,919 Speaker 6: not going to put himself in jeopardy of having something 1204 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 6: that has long term consequences and repercussions when it comes 1205 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 6: to the injury, So make sure he's fully healthy. But 1206 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 6: if he's healthy, oh he's playing because that's just what 1207 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 6: we expect from our franchise. 1208 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,440 Speaker 2: Quarterbacks, you know, And the argument is here right now. 1209 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 2: I mean, certainly he makes a difference, There's no doubt 1210 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,240 Speaker 2: about that. The year he had last year was almost 1211 00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 2: second to none. Really well, however, the last two weeks 1212 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 2: the Bengals put up eighty points and they still lost. 1213 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 2: And last year with what he had done, with the 1214 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 2: amount of the yards he's thrown for in touchdowns, they 1215 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 2: still didn't make the playoffs. So again you mentioned the 1216 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 2: term slop, that defense is slopped. Is how frustrating must 1217 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 2: have for Joe Burrow to put up those kind of numbers, 1218 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 2: for Jamar Chase and Fatim Higgins to have seasons and 1219 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase winning this so cold triple crown last year 1220 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: and not going to the playoffs, you know, just get 1221 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 2: to the playoffs and maybe lose after the first or 1222 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 2: second round, but not to get to the playoffs with 1223 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 2: the numbers that they put up, cut eighty points in 1224 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 2: two games and not to win. I mean the Jets 1225 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 2: and the Bears they lose to It's embarrassing, it really is. 1226 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 2: It is truly embarrassing. 1227 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I mean, look, it's embarrassing that they're not 1228 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,879 Speaker 6: able to get it get it done. But you're right, man, 1229 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,720 Speaker 6: we talked about the same thing. Offensively, they look the board, 1230 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 6: defensively terrible, just not getting it done. 1231 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you right now, I think that Joe 1232 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 2: Flacco has done a good job. And I think he 1233 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 2: was only sacked once or twice last week. So I 1234 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 2: don't know if he's getting the ball out a lot 1235 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 2: quicker than Joe did, or the offensive line is beginning 1236 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,279 Speaker 2: to mush to mesh together. I don't know. I mean, 1237 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 2: could you tell. I can't tell. I don't know if 1238 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 2: they're playing any better. I just know one thing that 1239 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,720 Speaker 2: Flacco's getting the ball out pretty quickly. 1240 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, he is getting the ball out quickly. That offensive 1241 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:05,799 Speaker 6: line is still up and down, but yeah, the ball 1242 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 6: is it's certainly come out quickly. They find a way 1243 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 6: to get the ball into the main playmakers' hands to 1244 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:13,799 Speaker 6: do it, and so that's what you want to do. 1245 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 6: Like this game, I won't say it's complex, but it 1246 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 6: looks really about the players. And if you can find 1247 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:23,280 Speaker 6: a way to get the players going by putting them, 1248 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:25,600 Speaker 6: putting the ball in their hands and allowing them to 1249 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 6: get busy on the perimeter, more times than not, the 1250 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 6: team with the best players are gonna win. 1251 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 3: So that's why I want to get the ball to 1252 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 3: my best players all the time. 1253 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, for the last several years, we have 1254 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 2: to say the AFC North may have been the best 1255 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 2: division in football, and now people are kind of bad 1256 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 2: mouth against saying it's I still think it's a good division, 1257 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,759 Speaker 2: and I think it's very competitive. Although teams are having 1258 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,280 Speaker 2: losing records at Bengals three and six and the Steelers 1259 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 2: five and four, the division right now is very competitive. 1260 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 2: I still think it's somewhat wide open. Now. Baltimore is 1261 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 2: the favorite right now and they've won the last three games, 1262 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 2: and I think Baltimore is the team to be perhaps, 1263 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,279 Speaker 2: but still in all I think it's still wide open. 1264 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 2: I think there's a still very competitive division. 1265 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it's still a very competitive division. This 1266 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 6: means it's a great division. Just means that everyone is 1267 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 6: competing because they all stink. I mean that's one way 1268 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 6: to look at it. Like it's not that doesn't mean 1269 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 6: that you're gonna get a Super Bowl winner out of 1270 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:20,839 Speaker 6: that division and stuff like that. I just think it's 1271 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,760 Speaker 6: a situation where you're hoping that one of these teams 1272 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 6: gets hot at the end. Right now, the team that 1273 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 6: looks like it's going to be the hottest team down 1274 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 6: the stretch is gonna be the Baltimore Ravens. Yeah, but yeah, 1275 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson's back, the team's kind of fixed some of 1276 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 6: the defensive roles in those things. So if I'm a 1277 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 6: bet on the team, I'm bet on the Ravens. There 1278 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 6: still is going to be there because it still has 1279 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 6: always found a way to be there. I just don't 1280 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 6: know if they got enough pop on the offense to 1281 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 6: be able to win and win a meaningful game in 1282 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 6: the postseason, which is what everyone's going to judge Mike 1283 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,040 Speaker 6: Tomlin because they haven't won a playoff game since twenty sixteen. 1284 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 3: I just don't know if they got enough. I don't 1285 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 3: know if they have enough. 1286 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 2: You're exactly right by the way we're broadcasting life for 1287 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 2: the Fox West radio studios.

This week NFL dot com, we we're about 1331 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 2: the changing of the NFL guard. I want to talk 1332 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 2: about that we talk about your rookie year on the 1333 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 2: Marv Levy in Buffalo in nineteen ninety four. I want 1334 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 2: to hear a little bit more, Cauld you expand about that, 1335 00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 2: because I read that I kind of got all excited 1336 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,440 Speaker 2: with Marv Levy. I thought was a true gentleman. What 1337 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 2: was that like playing for marvlev back in ninety four. 1338 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 6: Uh, Look, he's a great coach, obviously, Hall of Fame coach. 1339 00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 6: He was a different coach unlike anyone that I had experienced. Obviously, 1340 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 6: very intelligent, very well read, would bring different kinds of 1341 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 6: things into the meeting room to have discussions with the team. 1342 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,640 Speaker 6: But he was well respected by the team and he 1343 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 6: got them going. And I would say that he was 1344 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 6: on the front end on a lot of the innovation 1345 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 6: that we see today in terms of like not only 1346 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 6: no huddle up tempo offenses, but the practices and the 1347 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 6: way that they would take the pads off and practices 1348 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 6: were short and quick and in fishing because you had 1349 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 6: a veteran team that knew how to go and play 1350 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 6: at the highest level because they go on the four 1351 00:59:57,680 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 6: straight Super Bowl. 1352 00:59:58,600 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 3: So for me, I. 1353 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 6: Just take away that you could be a coach in 1354 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 6: your own style, as long as you're genuine, and he 1355 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 6: was authentic and the guys loved him because of that. 1356 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 6: So the authenticity is what I remember about Marv Levy. 1357 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 2: Could he be the exact opposite of Dan Campbell? I 1358 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,640 Speaker 2: would say that mar Lebe probably never cussed. 1359 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 6: No, I mean that wasn't really his word choice. He 1360 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 6: didn't use that kind of vernacular with the team. 1361 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 2: Amazing, I mean, what a gentleman. I think he's still 1362 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,720 Speaker 2: alive and well, I mean is he pushing one hundred? 1363 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 2: Isn't he? 1364 01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:37,720 Speaker 6: Yes? He is high nineties, ninety one, ninety two. 1365 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's definitely up there. 1366 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 6: But smart, smartest, smartest whip, still has an understanding of 1367 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:45,640 Speaker 6: how to get it, how to get it done, still talk, 1368 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,440 Speaker 6: still does all those things. One of the smartest people 1369 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 6: that I've ever been around. 1370 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 2: That's great, all right now. And they also wrote about 1371 01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,360 Speaker 2: the four new teams on top of their divisions. I 1372 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 2: just want to touch on that for a second. So 1373 01:00:57,360 --> 01:01:00,440 Speaker 2: the AFC East he got the Patriots, and they AFC 1374 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 2: South he got the Colts all right. Obviously two quarterbacks 1375 01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 2: that have never been there before in Drake May and 1376 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,479 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones. And you say, why should these two teams 1377 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 2: with the division. I'm gonna come back and say, maybe 1378 01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,360 Speaker 2: pick the Devil's Advocate, Well, they shouldn't. I'm thinking I'm 1379 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 2: waiting for like Daniel Jones to implode. Is that possible? 1380 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, right now, what are they? Eight 1381 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 2: and two of the colts? I'm thinking like, is it 1382 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 2: a dream? Are they for real or is it just 1383 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 2: fools gold? 1384 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 3: No, I think they're for real. 1385 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 6: And I think they're for real because they're really complete, right, 1386 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 6: They're complete in terms of when you look at their roster, 1387 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 6: they don't have a glaring weakness. 1388 01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 3: The only issue that you have with. 1389 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 6: Him is Daniel Jones, in which Daniel Jones is going 1390 01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 6: to show up in crunch time. And the reason why 1391 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,480 Speaker 6: you were about Daniel Jones is because in the playoffs 1392 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:43,720 Speaker 6: it really comes down to quarterback play, and in the 1393 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 6: AFC that could be loaded with the likes of Josh Allen, 1394 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 6: Pat Mahomes, justin Herbert Joe Burr, if they get in 1395 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson, like just all of those things. Can Daniel 1396 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 6: Jones win a shootout against those kinds of players. And 1397 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 6: he's played well up until this point, but we're beginning 1398 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 6: to see the turnovers kind of pop back up, and 1399 01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 6: you wonder if they take away his crutches, can he 1400 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 6: stand alone? Can he stand alone and kind of make 1401 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 6: it happen when they take away Jonathan tailoring to run 1402 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:13,800 Speaker 6: a game and they dare the coach to beat them passing. 1403 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:16,479 Speaker 6: Is Daniel Jones good enough to get it done? That's 1404 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 6: the question that's to me and our question. That's the 1405 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 6: one thing that could hold the Coast back from realizing 1406 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 6: their Super Bowl dreams. 1407 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 2: All right, now, you also touched on something that was 1408 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:29,560 Speaker 2: called trend watch the rise of thirteen personnel. Okay, and 1409 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 2: you got a big game today. You kind of zeroed 1410 01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,840 Speaker 2: in on the Seahawks Rams game the late game today. 1411 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 2: Both teams are seven and two. Explain to me hottest trends? 1412 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 2: What are these hot trends? I don't know, I'm stupid. 1413 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 6: So thirteen personnel and the way that you NFL teams 1414 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:51,439 Speaker 6: label personnel is one back, three tight ends in the game. 1415 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 6: So thirteen, the three tight end package has been the 1416 01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 6: one that you've seen from the Rams use increasingly this 1417 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 6: season with a look a high level of success. The 1418 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:04,680 Speaker 6: last three games they've used thirteen personnel almost forty percent 1419 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 6: over forty percent on most of those games, and it's 1420 01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 6: going thirty seven points per a game over those last 1421 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 6: three games. And the reason why is because it puts 1422 01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:13,400 Speaker 6: the defensive coordinator in such a dilemma. 1423 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 3: Okay, they got three tight ends on the field. 1424 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 6: Do I trot my bigs out there, meaning my extra 1425 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 6: d linemen and linebackers to do it? 1426 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:21,280 Speaker 3: Okay? If I do that, then what that does? 1427 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 6: It makes me susceptible to if they break the formation 1428 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,200 Speaker 6: and they have one of those tight ends that's really 1429 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 6: like a wide receiver and they go spread or empty 1430 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:30,960 Speaker 6: in those things. Do we have the personnel that can 1431 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 6: match up if we stay with our regular personnel? Are 1432 01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 6: you big enough to deal with the physicality and toughness 1433 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 6: with the running game you throw in the play action 1434 01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 6: and picks and rubs and all those things. You got 1435 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,160 Speaker 6: a lot of thinking going on on the defense of 1436 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 6: the ball while. 1437 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,240 Speaker 3: It's still simple and easy for the offense. 1438 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 6: Sean McVay has been masterful of trying it out there. 1439 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 6: They've done a great job of just kind of keeping 1440 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 6: people guessing in terms of what they want to do, 1441 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 6: and that thirteen personnel package has been a big part 1442 01:03:58,080 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 6: of it. 1443 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: Now and then talk about Matthew Staffords the MVP a 1444 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 2: game this year. I mean, really and truly, I mean 1445 01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 2: there's others out there. I mean, I don't think Jonathan 1446 01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 2: Taylor is going to get it soon because he's not 1447 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 2: a quarterback. He probably deserves it, but Matthew Stafford is 1448 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 2: the guy they're looking right now. And I'm hearing a 1449 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 2: lot of buzz about Matthew Stafford is MVP. 1450 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:19,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, and rightfully so there's a lot of buzz over 1451 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 6: that in terms of, like, you know, like Matthew Stafford 1452 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 6: making the play, He's doing all the things that you 1453 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 6: want to see a franchise quarterback too. 1454 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 3: And when you have someone who look is so prolific 1455 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 3: in terms of fourth quarter. 1456 01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 6: Comebacks, game winning drives, someone who's so talented. We've always 1457 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 6: recognized the talent since he's number one overall pick, but 1458 01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:41,400 Speaker 6: now it's the toughness and it's the ability to get 1459 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,720 Speaker 6: it done under pressure to no look past is the Puka, 1460 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 6: the coop and Devonte Adams, the way that he's able 1461 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 6: to kind of check the game down or control the 1462 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 6: game from the pocket. There's a lot to love about 1463 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:54,200 Speaker 6: what Matthew Stafford has done this year, and if you 1464 01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:58,439 Speaker 6: get the sentimental pick, the sentimental vote when it comes 1465 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:01,240 Speaker 6: down to him or Drake May, Matthew Stafford's gonna win 1466 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 6: that because it's the one thing that he doesn't have 1467 01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 6: on his mount. 1468 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 3: He doesn't have an MVP Award. 1469 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 2: Okay, now, last year, there's a little bit of an 1470 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 2: advantage I think in this game today. Was last year 1471 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 2: the Rams beat Sam Donald twice when Sam Donald was 1472 01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 2: playing for Minnesota. Okay, now he's with the Seahawks. But 1473 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 2: last week Sam Donald had a rough week, had three 1474 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 2: turnovers and it only had twelve attempts in that game 1475 01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 2: last week. So I think right now the Rams probably 1476 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,920 Speaker 2: are the better team. I think that the Seahawks got 1477 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 2: what the key for them. They got a pressure of 1478 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford. Can they do it? I don't know. I 1479 01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 2: think they have the defense to win, but I don't 1480 01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 2: think they're gonna pressure Matthew Stafford today. I think the 1481 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,880 Speaker 2: Rams win this game. The game is in. It's a 1482 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:39,960 Speaker 2: Rams home game, so I think the Rams have somewhat 1483 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:41,840 Speaker 2: of the advantage. I think the Rams are a better team, 1484 01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 2: that's all I'm saying. And Sam Donald, I still think 1485 01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 2: that you don't know what you get from week to 1486 01:05:46,200 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 2: week with that guy, You really don't. 1487 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, Sam Donald's played great. I mean you're gonna have 1488 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 6: some of those down moments. You're gonna have some turnover moments. 1489 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 6: And we just saw recently from Daniel Jones. He turned 1490 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 6: it over the last couple of times, last couple of 1491 01:05:58,000 --> 01:05:59,840 Speaker 6: games that we've seen. And sometimes you go through like 1492 01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 6: a bit of a I won't even call them the slump. 1493 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 6: You just have some games where you have a couple 1494 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 6: of hiccups and can you write the wrongs? I think 1495 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 6: for Sam Donald, he has done that. The offense is terrific. 1496 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 6: When it comes to the explosiveness, they haven't even really 1497 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:13,920 Speaker 6: unlocked the running game portion of it. But if they 1498 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 6: get the running game going, but the explosive pass game 1499 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 6: that they displayed, a few teams are gonna be able 1500 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 6: to stack up and beat them. Sam Donald has continued 1501 01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 6: to play under control because what's going to happen is 1502 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 6: all those memories from last year where you fall to 1503 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 6: the season finale and then the playoff debut. That stuff 1504 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:33,840 Speaker 6: is gonna come back and he's gonna have to manage 1505 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 6: it because it's gonna be a hot topic of conversation 1506 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:39,360 Speaker 6: as the Coos get closer to the playoffs. 1507 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 2: Huh. Okay, Now I mentioned that social media is not 1508 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 2: so social for one quarterback. That was a tease coming 1509 01:06:46,600 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 2: into this segment. And social media has advantages versus disadvantages 1510 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 2: for an athlete. Okay, And I'm thinking about this for 1511 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,720 Speaker 2: a second. For the NBA star Kevin Durant, it's a 1512 01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 2: nightmare every time somebody writes something about him in social media. 1513 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:01,640 Speaker 2: He gets involved into the arguments on social media. You 1514 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 2: got to ignore it. It's part of the deal. You 1515 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 2: get paid to play and people some of them are 1516 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 2: going to love you, some of them are not, and 1517 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:09,640 Speaker 2: some are going to critique you, and some of them 1518 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,680 Speaker 2: do it just to get a rise out of you. 1519 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,760 Speaker 2: And seems to me that Kevin Durant is one of 1520 01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:16,919 Speaker 2: the few athletes that really gets involved. And I don't 1521 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,840 Speaker 2: think you should. But Falcons quarterback Michael Pennix Jr. For him, 1522 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 2: had bockfired the other day. He wrote about his fiance 1523 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:27,320 Speaker 2: and his former coaches and he said these are people 1524 01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:30,000 Speaker 2: he has support. So all of a sudden, now it 1525 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 2: was construed that he meant that no one on the 1526 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:37,440 Speaker 2: Falcons has support for him. Either coaches or roster players 1527 01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 2: and his teammates. I mean, really, what is going on 1528 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:44,360 Speaker 2: with social media? I look, I know it's a great 1529 01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 2: method for communication. I think it's great for athletes because 1530 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 2: they could eliminate the media person and go directly to 1531 01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 2: the public. For example, if I'm at the vwing Bucky Brooks, 1532 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 2: and I'm working for a newspaper, and I go to 1533 01:07:57,520 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: the locker room and talk to you, and you say 1534 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 2: some thing and I misquote you. It gets into the 1535 01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,120 Speaker 2: press and you say a way to say no, no, I 1536 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 2: don't mean that. But now with the social media, you 1537 01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 2: could write it whatever you want to say and send 1538 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 2: it right out without the middleman meeting the media person. 1539 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 2: So there's an advantage there, But why are people taking 1540 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 2: it and construing through it to another meeting and all 1541 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,320 Speaker 2: of a sudden the coaching staff for the Falcons had 1542 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:22,519 Speaker 2: to come out and defend Michael Pennox Junior. 1543 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 6: It's crazy because yeah, I mean, just because of what 1544 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 6: we do on this end. So it's funny because I 1545 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 6: love hearing you talk about how players should ignore it 1546 01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 6: or whatever. But why should they, like, why should they 1547 01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:39,120 Speaker 6: be quiet when people are talking about them? Why should 1548 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 6: they sit because you can't wait for offering up opinions. 1549 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,680 Speaker 6: But does it really matter about winning? Like, does it 1550 01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 6: matter about winning? Because it's in the court of public opinion. 1551 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,040 Speaker 6: I am in the camp of Kevin Durant that if 1552 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 6: people are saying things and talking sideways, I'm going to 1553 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 6: go right back at them because there's so many voices 1554 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,960 Speaker 6: and so many opinions. And as you said, the negative 1555 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 6: part of social media is we've given a lot of 1556 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:03,519 Speaker 6: weight and currency to people who have no idea what 1557 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 6: they're talking about as it relates to sports and games 1558 01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 6: and those things. And it doesn't mean they shouldn't have 1559 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 6: an opinion, but it also doesn't mean that I should 1560 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 6: let that opinion just live in the echo chamber. So 1561 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:15,679 Speaker 6: I applied Kevin Durant for going back and forth because 1562 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 6: if you have and I've experienced, like if guys like 1563 01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:23,519 Speaker 6: way in, they're real thin skin when you fire back 1564 01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,880 Speaker 6: at them, you know, and everyone gives them cover by saying, oh, 1565 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,040 Speaker 6: you need to be above it. But why they're not 1566 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:32,519 Speaker 6: above it, Like they're not a brother reproach, they're not 1567 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 6: above like being challenged back on their opinions that are 1568 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 6: meritists or not fact based, so I understand that. Now. 1569 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:41,759 Speaker 3: The thing with Michael Pennox and that stuff, we're. 1570 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:44,800 Speaker 6: Always digging and we're at a time where people love controversy, 1571 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,880 Speaker 6: and so if he puts that stuff out there where 1572 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:53,120 Speaker 6: he's like really praising his childhood mentors and heroes and coaches, 1573 01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 6: and people take it some kind of way, that's kind 1574 01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 6: of silly, But that's what we do. Everything is about 1575 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 6: trying to get a click, to get a response in 1576 01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,360 Speaker 6: doing that. And people took his words and did it. 1577 01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 6: They tried to clear it up, but it certainly become 1578 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 6: a bigger thing than it needed to become. 1579 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 3: But that's not how Michael Pennix. Michael Pennick's quote was 1580 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:11,800 Speaker 3: well intentioned. 1581 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:16,880 Speaker 2: Sure was in beautiful. He still has fiance and his 1582 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:20,040 Speaker 2: high school coaches and college coaches, and they really stoock 1583 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 2: up for him. And it was taking the wrong way 1584 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,120 Speaker 2: saying that, well, I guess the Falcons coaches and my teammates, 1585 01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 2: his teammates don't stick up and don't support them. That's 1586 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 2: the stupidest thing I ever heard of, and then took 1587 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:31,840 Speaker 2: people around with it. His head coach had to go 1588 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 2: up there and defend him. It was nuts. It's crazy. 1589 01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:36,920 Speaker 2: And I don't think Michael Pennix did that for clicks. 1590 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 2: I think he just one day he had some free time. 1591 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 2: I guess he says, you know what, I really want 1592 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 2: to talk about my fiance and you know, these people 1593 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:46,840 Speaker 2: are really close to me and to support me. Nothing 1594 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:47,479 Speaker 2: wrong with that. 1595 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 6: No, not at all. And it's unfortunate became a much 1596 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,439 Speaker 6: bigger issue than it needed to. But that's just kind 1597 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:55,400 Speaker 6: of where we're at right now. 1598 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,599 Speaker 2: It's sad. It really is sad. I mean, and look, 1599 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,080 Speaker 2: I think that any who is a somewhat of a 1600 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:04,840 Speaker 2: public figure big it a get I'm sure you've gotten 1601 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,920 Speaker 2: some stuff criticized, right, you write for NFL dot com 1602 01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 2: and you know whatever at my foxs dot com. Right, 1603 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:14,519 Speaker 2: I get it. I get it. I'm an idiot. I 1604 01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 2: hear it all the time, and every once in a 1605 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:18,919 Speaker 2: while I'll write back, I'll answer it, you know, and 1606 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 2: most of the time you don't get another response. But 1607 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 2: then then it gets real. Luckily, then they start using 1608 01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:25,639 Speaker 2: curse words. You know what I mean. You know, that's 1609 01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 2: that's the answer, right, you know, if you can't defend yourself, 1610 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:32,000 Speaker 2: you know intelligently, you know, go down and do the 1611 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:35,120 Speaker 2: lowest common thing you could do and start cursing on that. 1612 01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 2: I get it all the time, you know, but ninety 1613 01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 2: nine percent of the time I just ignore it. But 1614 01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:40,880 Speaker 2: every once in a while, I'm in a kind of 1615 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:43,920 Speaker 2: a mood, feisty mood. 1616 01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:46,599 Speaker 6: Yeah, I want to do so you feel like Kevin Durant. 1617 01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:48,160 Speaker 6: So you feel like Kevin Durant. 1618 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 3: That's what Kevin Durant feels like on a daily basis. 1619 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:53,639 Speaker 3: That's all. Give it back to him. 1620 01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 2: Oh boy. Oh So the Falcons today are three and 1621 01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 2: six like the Bengals, and they host the Carolina Panthers 1622 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,560 Speaker 2: there five and five rise really and the falconsy the 1623 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 2: NFL and allowing just one hundred and fifty eight passing 1624 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 2: yards a game. We'll see what happens there. I think 1625 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:08,719 Speaker 2: the Falcons, I mean, honestly, it surprised me last week. 1626 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 2: I just think they're gonna win today. I just think 1627 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:13,600 Speaker 2: they got something in them. I mean, I don't know 1628 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:15,559 Speaker 2: what it is, but they got to kick it into gear. 1629 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 2: That's what they're gonna do. I think the Falcons win 1630 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 2: that game today. However, here's a big story Justin Tucker's back. 1631 01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:24,960 Speaker 2: Remember Justin Tucker. He was I think he was on 1632 01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:26,880 Speaker 2: his way to Canton, Ohio. Is perhaps maybe the best 1633 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 2: kicker in the NFL and had a ten game suspension 1634 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 2: in June for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. He 1635 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:36,840 Speaker 2: can return this week. The question I have return where now? 1636 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 2: Obviously he was accused of inappropriate behavior, including sexual misconduct, 1637 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 2: by several massage therapists in the Baltimore area. Here's a 1638 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,880 Speaker 2: warning to the NFL players. Stay away from the massage therapists. 1639 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 2: It's not healthy, it's not good for you. Really getting 1640 01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:52,479 Speaker 2: in trouble. It's amazing. 1641 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,360 Speaker 6: I wouldn't say I wouldn't Assai stay away. I would say, like, 1642 01:12:55,520 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 6: just make sure you don't cross those lines. Because massage 1643 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 6: therapy is a big part of the recovery process and 1644 01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 6: people are using it for good. It's just that we 1645 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 6: had a couple of isolated incidents where it's going beyond 1646 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,360 Speaker 6: what it should and it's been inappropriate in those things, 1647 01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 6: and so I just think everyone has to understand what 1648 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 6: you're getting into when you do it, and players need 1649 01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,439 Speaker 6: to be careful that massage therapists also have to be careful. 1650 01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:21,479 Speaker 6: They have to be a level of professionalism exhibit by 1651 01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:22,120 Speaker 6: both parties. 1652 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:24,200 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I would do if I had 1653 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:26,759 Speaker 2: to go to a massage therapist. I'm going with a buddy. 1654 01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,760 Speaker 2: I'm going with a teammate, or I'm going with an 1655 01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:33,599 Speaker 2: executive an administrator from the team, so there's somewhat of a 1656 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,920 Speaker 2: guy who could defend me. I'm not going alone, really, 1657 01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that's what I'm gonna do. I mean, you 1658 01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:41,960 Speaker 2: go alone, it's your word against the massage therapist. This way, 1659 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:44,360 Speaker 2: I'm going with my buddy and make you see exactly 1660 01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:46,559 Speaker 2: what's going on, so they're not can be any claims 1661 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,719 Speaker 2: against me. How's that good idea? 1662 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:51,960 Speaker 6: I mean, if you want to bring your buddy along, 1663 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 6: I mean, that's anyway, it's still gonna guarantee. 1664 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 3: It's still gonna guarantee everything. But I get it. 1665 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,800 Speaker 6: I do think you have to protect yourself as much 1666 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:05,639 Speaker 6: as far as possible when it comes to professionalism. But 1667 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:06,519 Speaker 6: that's just what it is. 1668 01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,200 Speaker 2: You're with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Are the coaches. Do the 1669 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,720 Speaker 2: coaching staff say anything about massage therapist or what to do? 1670 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,919 Speaker 2: I mean, they say a mecareful of them, no warning whatsoever. 1671 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:15,679 Speaker 2: They don't say a word. 1672 01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 6: I mean, I mean, I think you talk to your 1673 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 6: players about being a professional in everything that you do right, 1674 01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 6: treating people with respect, treating people the way that you 1675 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:25,400 Speaker 6: want to be treated in those things, and you hope 1676 01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:27,599 Speaker 6: that it carries over that you don't have to have 1677 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,760 Speaker 6: those conversations. I would say that, like some people have 1678 01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:32,600 Speaker 6: mentioned that, it may not come in front of a 1679 01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 6: team meeting, but they'll talk about respect disrespect those that 1680 01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 6: are around you, everyone that is here in the program helping. 1681 01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:41,439 Speaker 6: We want to make sure that we're very respectful in 1682 01:14:41,479 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 6: our interactions with them. And you hope that that means 1683 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:49,400 Speaker 6: that everything is appropriate, above board and we don't violate 1684 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 6: those things. 1685 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,600 Speaker 2: Sounds great, Okay, one quick question? Is going to be 1686 01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:55,759 Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame? Justin Tucker? 1687 01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:57,519 Speaker 3: I think so. 1688 01:14:57,600 --> 01:14:59,680 Speaker 6: I think after this I won't say dies down, but 1689 01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 6: I think to be a part of his legacy be 1690 01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:02,400 Speaker 6: I think it'll be done. 1691 01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:04,920 Speaker 2: Here we go, all right, Bucky Brooks, Andy Ferman, Fox 1692 01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:07,280 Speaker 2: Football Sunday and Fox Sports Radio.

I 1723 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 6: blame Aaron Rodgers like he is what he is right now. 1724 01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 3: He's not gonna get any better and they have to 1725 01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:20,960 Speaker 3: live with them. 1726 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:24,000 Speaker 2: And you know, I tell how I blame. I'm gonna 1727 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 2: blame Mike Thomas smart enough not to make a comment 1728 01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 2: because I don't think Mike Tomlin initially wanted Aaron Rodgers. 1729 01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 2: I think it was the Rooneys. I think the Rooney 1730 01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 2: family signed Aaron Rodgers and they bumped him on Mike Tomlin. 1731 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:39,120 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong. What do you think about that? Fuck? 1732 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,479 Speaker 2: I mean, I just don't think it was decision. 1733 01:16:42,320 --> 01:16:44,000 Speaker 3: I think he was, he was in on it. I 1734 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:46,840 Speaker 3: think they like he just kind of knew what it's 1735 01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 3: gonna be. 1736 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 6: And I think they were hoping that they could play 1737 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 6: a certain style defensively that would help them on offense. 1738 01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 3: But they just have been able to get that right now. 1739 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,360 Speaker 2: He doesn't usually comment about a lot of things, but 1740 01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I was really surprised early this year, well, 1741 01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,800 Speaker 2: Mike Toman commented about the Browns trading Joe Flacco to 1742 01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:07,200 Speaker 2: in the division to the Bengals. That was a big 1743 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:08,719 Speaker 2: comment on the part of Mike Tomlin. 1744 01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:13,479 Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, that's not a normal m but yeah, 1745 01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:14,599 Speaker 6: it's certainly been a big deal. 1746 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 2: All right, right, spree, Oh thank you? 1747 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:18,479 Speaker 4: Okay. 1748 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:21,880 Speaker 5: The Vikings had eight fallse start penalties last week, Andy, 1749 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:22,599 Speaker 5: who do you blame? 1750 01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:25,360 Speaker 2: You know what? It's easy to blame the coaches. Sometimes 1751 01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 2: it happens, you know what. And I think a lot 1752 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 2: of times that happens. Maybe Bucky, I'm wrong on this. 1753 01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 2: The crowd noise affects you. I mean, you just can't hear, 1754 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:34,719 Speaker 2: and that's why they jumping off sides all the time. 1755 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong. He don't blame the coaches, don't even 1756 01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:40,040 Speaker 2: blame the player. Sometimes the crowd has a factor that 1757 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:45,080 Speaker 2: you can't even hear. I've seen it. It happens, yeah, I. 1758 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:47,800 Speaker 3: Mean, like sometimes the crowd, the crowd is a factor. 1759 01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:49,639 Speaker 6: But you want to be above that. I mean, sometimes 1760 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 6: you got to just be able to lock in and focus. 1761 01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 6: The preach that penalty from me are all about concentration 1762 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:55,960 Speaker 6: and focus, and you just got to be on the details. 1763 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 6: And sometimes you just have a lap of concentration that 1764 01:17:58,680 --> 01:17:59,720 Speaker 6: is unexplainable. 1765 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 3: But you have to be a buffet. 1766 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 6: You got to be better at huh. 1767 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 5: Okay, So the MLB is in the midst of a 1768 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,640 Speaker 5: betting scandal.

About all these people, it's easy to compromise 1776 01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:28,920 Speaker 6: the integery of the game, and we've seen that. So 1777 01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 6: that's why it's been an issue. 1778 01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 3: Too many people are too close to the players, and 1779 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:33,000 Speaker 3: that's what we're seeing. 1780 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:35,800 Speaker 2: Do you know who I blame? I blame a lack 1781 01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 2: of IQ. I would guarantee the pitchers that haven't gotten 1782 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 2: in trouble have a double digital IQ. You gotta be 1783 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:45,439 Speaker 2: really freaking stupid to do that.

Lack of IQ stupidity, and 1786 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 2: maybe they should give like a little bit of an 1787 01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: IQ test before you play Major League Baseball match. Stop laughing, 1788 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 2: it's true. You sound like an idiot too. 1789 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 4: Okay, okay. 1790 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 5: Six at West Virginia University women basketball players were ejected 1791 01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:11,320 Speaker 5: in their win over Duke the other night, Andy, who 1792 01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:12,000 Speaker 5: do you blame? 1793 01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,719 Speaker 2: I loved it.

And then after the game, 1796 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 2: the West Virginia coach that he was proud of his girls. 1797 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 2: Come on, really, you without the six players on the bench. 1798 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:28,840 Speaker 2: I mean, you have to have a little more decorum 1799 01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 2: as a coach to tell these people just to calm 1800 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:34,479 Speaker 2: down and relax. Please, you're not playing in the park. 1801 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 2: You're representing your school as well as yourself. 1802 01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's not something that you want to see. 1803 01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 6: You understand. You want to fight back.
