<v Speaker 1>sixty two around the world. You know we love pairing

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>athletes off against one another. Ali Frasier, Borg McEnroe, Bird Magic,

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Brady versus Manning, and sometimes a great athlete doesn't have

0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>a direct rival. Michael Jordan did not have a direct rival.

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>We tried to boost some people up to be a

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>direct rival. It didn't happen. Lebron James really hasn't had

0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:19.840
<v Speaker 1>one either. Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson seemed to be

0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:24.119
<v Speaker 1>headed towards incredible careers. Right now, it appears as if

0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Mahomes is in the Lebron Jordan territory. That big matchup

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:33.039
<v Speaker 1>last night didn't really materialize. Mahomes was brilliant. Jackson struggled.

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 1>But you know a couple of things you have to

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind. Lamar Jackson's only twenty three. A lot

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.399
<v Speaker 1>of the great quarterbacks of all time probably didn't get

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:45.640
<v Speaker 1>their careers started till after they were twenty three. You know,

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:48.480
<v Speaker 1>they went to four years of college, came out. Not

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>everybody started right away. You know, Tom Brady didn't start

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:54.600
<v Speaker 1>right away, Joe Montana didn't start right away. You know,

0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:59.080
<v Speaker 1>it happens. And Lamar Jackson last night, he was the

0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:03.240
<v Speaker 1>other quarter back because Mahomes was brilliant once again, and

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 1>you think of these two quarterbacks, we thought they were

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>going to match up in last year's postseason didn't happen.

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 1>But nothing creates a rivalry like a big moment like

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 1>the postseason, and they seem to be destined to meet again.

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Even if Mahomes looks like he's well ahead right now,

0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:21.239
<v Speaker 1>Jackson might get a shot at redemption in the playoffs

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:23.240
<v Speaker 1>in just a couple of months. And a couple of

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>things stood out yesterday. Baltimore is so good when they

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:30.720
<v Speaker 1>get ahead, they're a great front runner. But Kansas City,

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.200
<v Speaker 1>if you don't get out on top of them early,

0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.000
<v Speaker 1>then you're in trouble. And you saw that. You know,

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:37.799
<v Speaker 1>if you go down and you kick a field goal

0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>and then Kansas City comes down and scores a touchdown,

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 1>then you're off to the races. Because you play behind

0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>with Kansas City, you play right into their hands. And

0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Mahomes last night was wonderful. Now, when you're throwing for

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>three touchdowns, you're running for a touchdown. He has not

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.920
<v Speaker 1>lost a game in September in his career. He's not

0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 1>thrown an interception in September, and his career thirty two touchdowns,

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:04.920
<v Speaker 1>zero interceptions. He's ten and oh in the month of September.

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:09.239
<v Speaker 1>And here is Mahomes talking after the game he had,

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, a touchdown passes in a variety of ways.

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:13.919
<v Speaker 1>You know, it could be a long touchdown, it could

0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.720
<v Speaker 1>be an underhand touchdown, it could be a tackle eligible touchdown.

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>That here's Patrick Mahomes after last night to win the

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 1>first one of the term. We'd actually had ran it

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:25.800
<v Speaker 1>my first year, starting against the Patriots, and they had

0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 1>they had accidentally covered it because the guy was just

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 1>following the ball and so the kind of been hanging

0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.639
<v Speaker 1>onto album's trying to find the right opportunity to have fought.

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Coach Rene had did a great job of calling it

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:36.600
<v Speaker 1>there on that on that down a distance and to

0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>get that touchdown. And that's another thing to keep in mind.

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>You have an offensive minded head coach in Andy Reid

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 1>and Eric b Enemy is the offensive coordinator. You've added weapons,

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 1>the offense got better, and I think the defense has

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.720
<v Speaker 1>improved as well. Now it's a long season. We know

0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:57.120
<v Speaker 1>injuries are part of this. Baltimore will come back, you know,

0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>but they're not I mean, they're fallible. If you look

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:01.880
<v Speaker 1>at this, if you're not going to throw for over

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 1>one hundred yards, you're not going to be Kansas City.

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Just not going to happen, and that defense is supposed

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to be formidable, and they blitzed Patrick Mahomes. And I

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:14.920
<v Speaker 1>always go back to a conversation I had with Kurt Warner.

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Kurt Warner playing on the Greatest Show on Turf team

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.479
<v Speaker 1>with the Rams, and I said, Hey, you seem comfortable

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>when you're being blitzed. He said, I love when I

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 1>was being blitzed because I knew somebody was opened. Baltimore

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 1>went after him. They put pressure on him, but it's

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>almost as if he knew it was coming, embraced that

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:37.560
<v Speaker 1>it was coming, and then took advantage of that. But

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, when they get behind, then

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 1>they're in trouble. And they didn't get behind very often

0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>last year. When you have that sustainable drive and you

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 1>take the pride from somebody, the air out of their sales,

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>you go eighty yards. They did that last year. They

0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 1>had a number of drives to start games where they'd

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:03.560
<v Speaker 1>scored him, and that was the big difference there. And

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:05.719
<v Speaker 1>I go back to the Super Bowl. You know, the

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.440
<v Speaker 1>forty nine ers thought that they were being able, that

0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 1>they could put pressure on Mahomes. They didn't have to

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:15.320
<v Speaker 1>blitz anybody, and for three quarters they put pressure on

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Mahomes and he didn't play well at all, and then

0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden you start to blitz, and then

0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you're in trouble because Mahomes will eventually beat you. And

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 1>that came to mind last night. If you can, if

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>you can send four guys, you got a chance against him.

0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know how many teams have a front

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 1>four that's that's strong to be able to do that.

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, maybe the Steelers could do that, but it's

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be rare to find that team to put

0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:45.200
<v Speaker 1>pressure on them. And it almost feels like Kansas City

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>will have to beat itself. When Mahomes was blitz last night,

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 1>seventeen to twenty two hundred and forty yards, three touchdowns

0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:58.119
<v Speaker 1>and a quarterback rating of one fifty six. It's about

0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>as good as it's going to get. And if that's

0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 1>where you go, we're trying everything we can possibly do,

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and we have no answers. Here is John Harball, the

0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Ravens quarterback, on the Ravens being a better team. Obviously

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:13.120
<v Speaker 1>we haven't beaten him, so you know, they they've out

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>played us in all three games. If you want to

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:16.719
<v Speaker 1>go back for three years. So but we didn't play

0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.240
<v Speaker 1>well today. They beat us. They out executed us, they

0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>out game planned us. They just beat us. So that's

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the story tonight, big picture stuff all that.

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. They're better, obviously, they're better football team

0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 1>at this point in time. So you win or to

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:31.080
<v Speaker 1>your learn, and we have a lot to learn from

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.919
<v Speaker 1>this game. Right here. If he were with us yesterday

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:37.040
<v Speaker 1>at this time, Ross Tucker a former NFL alignment oh no,

0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:42.479
<v Speaker 1>he covers the sport, and he sounded pretty sure. He

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>was pretty sure that the Ravens were going to win

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:47.919
<v Speaker 1>this game and win this game comfortably. And here's the

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.800
<v Speaker 1>here's the short version of his prediction on last night's game.

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:54.839
<v Speaker 1>I really believe the Ravens run the ball down the

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:58.160
<v Speaker 1>chief's throat tonight. I think they get after Patrick Mahomes.

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the Ravens have a great chance to win

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:05.040
<v Speaker 1>this game by double digits. Okay, Now, he sounded confident.

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>And I always look at it as for entertainment purposes

0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>only because here's the other thing. Now, I'm always curious

0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and having bet for so long, you can kind of

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>feel what a line is going to be what's the

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 1>point spread going to be? And you know it was

0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 1>going to be three and a half or four points

0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>last night. And then I said to Paully, what's the

0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 1>over under? And he goes, I start out at fifty

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>two on Sunday, it's up to fifty four. I go

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.960
<v Speaker 1>fifty four, and then it went up to fifty four

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 1>and a half. So I'm thinking, people gotta be jumping

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 1>on this to do the over, and I always go

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:49.400
<v Speaker 1>the other way when I know so, hey, everybody believes this,

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:54.840
<v Speaker 1>And then you start to go, m how many points

0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 1>were scored last night? Paul, Fifty four Vegas did very

0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:03.400
<v Speaker 1>well last night because most most of the money was

0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.119
<v Speaker 1>on the over. A current. According to a couple different

0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>sports books, at least eighty percent of the money that

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.560
<v Speaker 1>came in when it was at fifty four and a

0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 1>half was for the over. Oh that's painful, painful. That's

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>for entertainment purposes only, of course. Yes, Bully, Dan, we

0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>have a special guest calling into the Dan Patrick's Show,

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Ravens Backer, mister money Night football in Western one. Ross Tucker. Yes, yes, Ross,

0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:32.800
<v Speaker 1>good morning, Hey Dan, first time caller. I'm six five,

0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:38.320
<v Speaker 1>two fifty. Let's go. Let's go back to I need

0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 1>to come make amends. I went on my first appearance

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:45.640
<v Speaker 1>on Peacock yesterday, I kind of cocked off and said

0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens would win by double digits. Now, I don't

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:52.720
<v Speaker 1>know if you watched last night there not exactly what happened. Well,

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 1>once again, let's play Ross's prediction the short version. I

0:08:56.720 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 1>really believe the Ravens run the ball down the Chief's throats.

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I think they get after Patrick Mahomes. I think the

0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:05.280
<v Speaker 1>Ravens have a great chance to win this game by

0:09:05.360 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>double digits. Yeah, and I believed you, Ross. I believe

0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:15.319
<v Speaker 1>me too. That's the problem. I mean, this is this

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.559
<v Speaker 1>is why I get paid the big bucks. You know what.

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:19.920
<v Speaker 1>It is amazing though, and it's one of the things

0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I love about the sport. You watched those first two games.

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:27.520
<v Speaker 1>The Chiefs run defense was terrible and the Ravens were

0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 1>obviously running at will. And then Patrick Mahomes was under

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.680
<v Speaker 1>duress against the Chargers. I mean he really struggled under

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>their pressure. And the Ravens had just beaten the crap

0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 1>out at Baker Mayfield and DeShawn Watson, so I still

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.599
<v Speaker 1>feel real good about it. And then you watched the

0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>game last night, and I was very frustrated with the

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Ravens going away from the run as early and as

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.719
<v Speaker 1>often as they did. I mean that first drive they

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>have sixty yards rushing on six runs ten yards to carry,

0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:02.640
<v Speaker 1>and then second and three from like the twelve yard line,

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.280
<v Speaker 1>third and three they throw it both times, settled for

0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 1>a field goal. And then what Patrick Mahomes did on

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 1>third down last I mean he was ten of twelve

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.479
<v Speaker 1>for the third downs that really mattered in the context

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.079
<v Speaker 1>of the game. And I think they were all third

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.640
<v Speaker 1>and five or more, Dan, I mean, I don't know

0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.480
<v Speaker 1>if people realize what we're watching right now. The Ravens

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:28.240
<v Speaker 1>have a good defense and Mahomes was ten of twelve

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:33.320
<v Speaker 1>on third and five or more. I mean, he is unbelievable.

0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I think I had tweeted at Rosstuck NFL. By the way,

0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.080
<v Speaker 1>DP shows getting a lot of love on old takes

0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:42.000
<v Speaker 1>exposed since I said that on your show yesterday, so

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:45.280
<v Speaker 1>you're getting the old takes exposed crowd. But yeah, man,

0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look I said, I said, I think the

0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Ravens winned by double digits unless Patrick Mahomes makes me

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:54.080
<v Speaker 1>look silly, and Patrick Mahomes did, in fact make me

0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:58.359
<v Speaker 1>look silly. Ross, We appreciate you coming in with your

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 1>head held blow between your legs. Very honorable on your part.

0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:06.079
<v Speaker 1>We appreciate it as always my pleasure. And I called

0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:08.120
<v Speaker 1>in rather than Zoom because I don't need to have

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 1>PAULI making fun of my head size anymore while my

0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:15.240
<v Speaker 1>mom's watching. So thank you, Thank you Ross. That's Ross

0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:22.200
<v Speaker 1>Tucker Ross Tucker Podcast. And also he's a Westwood One analyst. Yes, Paul,

0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.240
<v Speaker 1>My sources say his mom has a perfectly normal sized head.

0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>The dad has a big head, and that's where I

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:30.679
<v Speaker 1>got it from. Uh. You know, you start watching a

0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 1>game and then you always think of, you know, somebody

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.920
<v Speaker 1>making a prediction. There's somebody sounding so confident, and then

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:39.200
<v Speaker 1>you wonder what they're doing while they're watching Mahomes throw

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:42.040
<v Speaker 1>all these touchdown passes. This program is brought to you

0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:02.840
<v Speaker 1>who was on the call last night. Lewis Riddick got

0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>verbally spanked by Patrick Mahomes's mom because Lewis was calling

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes Pat Mahomes last night and then his mom says,

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:17.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I wish this announcer would stop on Twitter

0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>calling him Pat because her husband is Pat Mahomes, the

0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:25.440
<v Speaker 1>former baseball pitcher. He's Patrick Mahomes, so he's not a junior.

0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:30.040
<v Speaker 1>He's the second, but he doesn't go by the second

0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.480
<v Speaker 1>even though it's on his jersey. But Patrick Mahomes. So

0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Lewis Riddick will join us coming up. The big news

0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:40.280
<v Speaker 1>out of Los Angeles, Doc Rivers was fired, and the

0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 1>question is why why now do you have a coach

0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:47.959
<v Speaker 1>in place? Do you have ty lu as the heir apparent?

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Will he be the successor? Since he's on the bench

0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:53.160
<v Speaker 1>with Doc Rivers? Doc Rivers is going to get another job?

0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Does Kawhi Leonard you know, co sign on this because

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.640
<v Speaker 1>if you want to keep why Leonard and Paul George

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:05.040
<v Speaker 1>after this season, I'm going to assume that they would

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:06.600
<v Speaker 1>want to know who their coach is. Going to be

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.679
<v Speaker 1>or have a say in that allah Kevin Durant and

0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Kyrie Irving with Steve Nash and Brooklyn. But that's what

0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:15.679
<v Speaker 1>came to mine immediately was I wasn't surprised that Doc

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 1>got fired, and I think out of respect Steve Balmer,

0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 1>the owner, was going to wait a little while, probably

0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:26.160
<v Speaker 1>wanted to take inventory there, talk to everybody, and then

0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:29.080
<v Speaker 1>you got to be fair to Doc Rivers, who everybody loves.

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:34.080
<v Speaker 1>It's just the resume has not been outstanding. And now

0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:36.840
<v Speaker 1>who are you bringing in? Can you bring in somebody

0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>that we probably didn't think of. Chris Mannox tweeted out,

0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:42.960
<v Speaker 1>do you, you know, make a run at Phil Jackson?

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Phil seventy five? And if you're Phil, Steve Balmer says,

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.679
<v Speaker 1>what's it going to cost? Do you go to the Clippers?

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Can he do it physically? Would be my first question,

0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:58.480
<v Speaker 1>because I don't know if Phil physically would be able

0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>to coach an entire season and how much of a

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>difference would he make. Is that the kind of lineup

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 1>that he wants? Do you do the triangle with? And

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:08.839
<v Speaker 1>I know maybe this is pie in the sky, but

0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Mannix tweeted this out. I think Tylu is probably your

0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:17.360
<v Speaker 1>coach there, and you know he's handled star players when

0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:19.880
<v Speaker 1>he was with Lebron in Cleveland winning a title there.

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 1>He's already in a house, so I would think Tylu

0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.800
<v Speaker 1>and then Doc Rivers, you know, does he get New Orleans,

0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 1>does he get Philadelphia, does he get Indiana? There are

0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.880
<v Speaker 1>possibilities out there for yeah, Seeton. I just want to

0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:35.160
<v Speaker 1>make one slight correction. Doc Rivers wasn't fired by the Clippers.

0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:37.880
<v Speaker 1>They parted ways. Oh that's right now, how does that

0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:41.400
<v Speaker 1>work again? Pauli so obsiously uncoupled. Yes, So that's the

0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Gwyneth Paltrow way of saying goodbye. We're consciously uncoupling. So

0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:48.320
<v Speaker 1>if I walk in and I'm Steve Ballmer and Pauli

0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 1>as Doc Rivers, and then I say, hey, Doc, how

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.160
<v Speaker 1>are you again, I'm gonna let you go. I quit Now.

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Did we do that? That was a mutual uncoupling. Yeah.

0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.880
<v Speaker 1>So and then once again you walk in and I go,

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>hey Doc, how are you? And I have to get rid.

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I gotta get I'm gonna have to get rid of you.

0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna fire you. And I don't think this is

0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:09.400
<v Speaker 1>working with are so agree not working? Yes, Todd. Was

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:11.760
<v Speaker 1>it a mystery early on whether he was fired or

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>whether they parted ways together because the initial reports all

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 1>kept using the phrase he's out as head coach, and

0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:19.040
<v Speaker 1>no one wanted to like die that further and explain

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>whether he stepped down or he was showing the door.

0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if anybody wanted to say Doc Rivers

0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 1>got fired. I think that's what it came down to.

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Like that sounds so like a guillotine, like, yeah, we cited,

0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.200
<v Speaker 1>you know what, Maybe we just we're gonna go in

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:38.240
<v Speaker 1>a different direction, separate directions too. He he got fired, yeah, boy.

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 1>And in our industry you always see looking forward to

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 1>other challenges. He's like when someone leaves a bit of entity,

0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 1>he's looking forward to other challenge. You got, McLeman, what

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of poll question are we looking at? Okay? Paula

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:54.680
<v Speaker 1>suggested this are you off the Ravens band? Wow? And

0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:58.480
<v Speaker 1>my side pole question, are we going crazy over reacting

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:01.560
<v Speaker 1>to just a week three games? Everyone on Twitter is like, oh,

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens just lost the Super Bowl to the Chiefs. Well,

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.840
<v Speaker 1>I think there is that feeling of is anybody going

0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to be able to stand up to the Chiefs? And

0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>if anybody it's it's anybody, you'll be the Ravens. It

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>feels like those are the two best teams in the NFL,

0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:18.080
<v Speaker 1>not just the AFC. And we don't like a fore

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 1>guy in conclusion, certainly not in football where you want

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>that process to play out. You don't want to go yeah,

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna win. Yeah, nobody's gonna stop the Chiefs. That

0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:31.840
<v Speaker 1>is that feeling today. But I have the Ravens winning

0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the Super Bowl, so I'm not going to abandon ship. Yes, point.

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.080
<v Speaker 1>I took a look around the internet and there's different

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 1>sites where he could see where different experts and betting

0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:44.080
<v Speaker 1>people and commentaries picked for the Super Bowl. And I'm

0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:45.840
<v Speaker 1>trying to do the math here. More people pick the

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Ravens to make it to the Super Bowl than pick

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:52.520
<v Speaker 1>the kans Cy Chiefs. Yeah, based off the picks, I see. Yeah,

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if those people would want to do over

0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.320
<v Speaker 1>today on their pick. Well, I think when you look

0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.720
<v Speaker 1>at Kansas City and realize that their offense is actually

0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:02.480
<v Speaker 1>better even though they lost one of their starting offensive

0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:07.320
<v Speaker 1>lineman who opted out to work in the pandemic, the

0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 1>defense feels a little better. And that was always my

0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>big concern could they stop somebody when they needed to

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:15.920
<v Speaker 1>stomp to somebody, And that's what happened. You want a

0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:18.560
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl? They needed to stop the Niners. They stopped

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:20.960
<v Speaker 1>the Niners. They want a super Bowl? Yeah, McLeman, But

0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:23.280
<v Speaker 1>this game was twenty seven twenty in the fourth quarter

0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:25.640
<v Speaker 1>and there was like a key drop by the Ravens,

0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:28.920
<v Speaker 1>like this was really close. They did feel that way. Well,

0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:30.840
<v Speaker 1>it fell in the second half that the Chiefs. The

0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs don't feel like they like being ahead. They feel

0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:35.719
<v Speaker 1>like they like they were like, let's let's do some

0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.400
<v Speaker 1>weird stuff and let Baltimore into this game. I had

0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:41.159
<v Speaker 1>that slight feeling then, mahomes with. I thought it was

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:44.800
<v Speaker 1>closer than it should have been because it felt like

0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City was in control and Baltimore. I don't think

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:52.280
<v Speaker 1>they did anything really well last night. Yeah, mcclub well,

0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Lamar ran, Well, he had nine carries for eighty three yards.

0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.560
<v Speaker 1>They can't stop him at all. Yeah, but he doesn't

0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:02.080
<v Speaker 1>know how to scramble. He knows how to run. When

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 1>he faces pressure. He doesn't step up in the pocket

0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:09.080
<v Speaker 1>like he backs up, and he got caught a couple

0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.159
<v Speaker 1>of times last night. Yeah, point one Single Better at

0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:16.560
<v Speaker 1>the MGM in Vegas scorting. My guy said, a single

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Better had ninety five thousand dollars on the over at

0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:22.399
<v Speaker 1>fifty four and a half. You can buy down the

0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:26.600
<v Speaker 1>over under, you could buy points. Did not do that

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:31.840
<v Speaker 1>ninety five thousand dollars on the over, and I you

0:18:31.840 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 1>know that that's one of those that just saying hey

0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 1>take it, hey the over. Of course they're going to

0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:40.760
<v Speaker 1>score a lot of points and then if Bucker misses

0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:45.000
<v Speaker 1>an extra point. The Ravens were down at the goal

0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.200
<v Speaker 1>line and then launst like twenty yards on a play

0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:51.120
<v Speaker 1>and then went for it. Didn't even kick a hill man. See,

0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:54.760
<v Speaker 1>this is why I don't gamble. Yes, Tod one of

0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:58.080
<v Speaker 1>those bad beats. If you didn't see that fifty four

0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:00.639
<v Speaker 1>and a half coming, nink a ton, Well, that sounds

0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:04.640
<v Speaker 1>like a segment bad beats. So we take people who

0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:07.480
<v Speaker 1>lost or games didn't cover. Is anybody doing that? I

0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:08.959
<v Speaker 1>think I saw us up in late at night on

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:10.880
<v Speaker 1>one of those sports channels. Yeah, but if it's late

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:12.399
<v Speaker 1>at night and we're doing this in the morning, then

0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:17.800
<v Speaker 1>they'll never know. Ampm's different. Yeah, yeah, it should be.

0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:19.359
<v Speaker 1>We should be able to do it all right, let

0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:21.399
<v Speaker 1>me take a break. Lewis Riddick will join us, and

0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I got a question for you. Just let you think

0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:27.760
<v Speaker 1>about this as we go into commercial break. What's a

0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 1>better sports city New York or Tampa. Now? I never

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 1>thought I would say that, but I can say that

0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:41.520
<v Speaker 1>today and I know the answer. It's obvious. Twenty after

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:43.639

<v Speaker 1>end up? Is there a chance that they could bring

0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>in Phil Jackson? I mentioned this better Sports City New

0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 1>York City or Tampa. Now I'm just saying currently because

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you've got some New York teams that are competing for

0:21:33.320 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 1>a title. The Islanders were good this year, the Yankees,

0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the Nets now with Steve Nash and Kyrie Irving and

0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Durant. But then Mets, Jets, Giants, Knicks, Rangers not

0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:47.639
<v Speaker 1>so much. Look at Tampa Lightning one. I got the

0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Tampa bay Rays going to the World Series to face

0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:54.800
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers. And of course Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. Yes,

0:21:55.160 --> 0:21:56.919
<v Speaker 1>and they're hosting the Super Bowl on top of all that.

0:21:57.040 --> 0:21:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Tom. Welcome. All right, we'll get to phone

0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:01.680
<v Speaker 1>calls coming up, Settle on our poll question. He is

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:05.439
<v Speaker 1>Lewis Riddick, the ESPN Monday Night football analysts. Although, Lewis,

0:22:05.480 --> 0:22:07.560
<v Speaker 1>I think I got to call you, lou since you

0:22:07.600 --> 0:22:13.240
<v Speaker 1>were calling Patrick Mahomes packed last night. Yeah, man, I

0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 1>his mom and his mom kind of said it straight.

0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Didn't see that it was. It was because I was

0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:22.880
<v Speaker 1>going to roll to man. But I love Patrick's game

0:22:22.960 --> 0:22:25.000
<v Speaker 1>in so many different ways. Man. I was just like Pat,

0:22:25.280 --> 0:22:28.479
<v Speaker 1>Pat Pat, Pat Pat, Like you know, I was like,

0:22:29.080 --> 0:22:31.360
<v Speaker 1>oh boy, all right, but no, it was fun too,

0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:33.120
<v Speaker 1>was a great sport. It was. It was cool though.

0:22:33.400 --> 0:22:35.120
<v Speaker 1>But I got the I got the I got the memo.

0:22:35.200 --> 0:22:38.080
<v Speaker 1>That's for sure as a former defensive back, when you

0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:40.239
<v Speaker 1>look at Mahomes like, how do you how would you

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:42.960
<v Speaker 1>play him? Like? What what is it you see that

0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:48.320
<v Speaker 1>you would try to defend? Man, Dan, It's it's a problem, man,

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.359
<v Speaker 1>it's a problem. I think Number one, from from a

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 1>pure defensive backstandpoint, with the receivers he has, you have

0:22:55.880 --> 0:22:58.399
<v Speaker 1>to slow them down at the line of scrimmage. You

0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 1>have to disrupt that as much as possible and make

0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Pat have to hold the ball and therefore give your

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:07.520
<v Speaker 1>defensive line time to get to him and make him uncomfortable,

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.240
<v Speaker 1>just like the Patriots did in ANFC Championship game a

0:23:10.240 --> 0:23:12.080
<v Speaker 1>couple of years ago. I mean they absolutely got up

0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:13.879
<v Speaker 1>on the last scrimmage and beat those guys up as

0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:16.080
<v Speaker 1>much as they could, and then Bill had a bunch

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:18.160
<v Speaker 1>of different rush schemes to get after Pat and made

0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:23.240
<v Speaker 1>him uncomfortable. Now he was young, I know, I know.

0:23:23.359 --> 0:23:26.240
<v Speaker 1>See there I go again. Patrick, you have to do

0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:28.199
<v Speaker 1>you have to do that to him. You have to

0:23:28.200 --> 0:23:30.680
<v Speaker 1>slow it out his receivers and then get after him

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:34.480
<v Speaker 1>on the rush. If you don't do that, and Patrick

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:38.440
<v Speaker 1>is able to stand in the pocket uncontested, and his

0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:41.920
<v Speaker 1>guys who are all just speed burners are able to

0:23:41.960 --> 0:23:45.520
<v Speaker 1>get up on your secondary players just like that. He's

0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:47.400
<v Speaker 1>could have cut you apart, just like he did last night.

0:23:47.440 --> 0:23:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's and see, here's the thing with Patrick Now,

0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:53.840
<v Speaker 1>he's taken his game from one level to the next

0:23:53.920 --> 0:23:57.800
<v Speaker 1>because now in his mind, he is able to decipher

0:23:57.840 --> 0:24:00.160
<v Speaker 1>what you're doing much much faster. And he had did

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>it just a couple of years ago. Just last year,

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.600
<v Speaker 1>he was still pretty green as far as trying to

0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:07.680
<v Speaker 1>figure out what you were doing. He was just reacting,

0:24:08.080 --> 0:24:11.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, on god given ability, which is scary. Now

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:14.439
<v Speaker 1>he's starting to get the answers to the test before you.

0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:17.600
<v Speaker 1>David snapped the ball, and once he does that, as

0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Steve Young says, it just becomes unfair. And that's what

0:24:21.400 --> 0:24:24.879
<v Speaker 1>it looks unfair right now. Yeah, I've mentioned this a

0:24:24.880 --> 0:24:27.199
<v Speaker 1>couple of times on the show. When Aaron Rodgers is

0:24:27.280 --> 0:24:29.640
<v Speaker 1>playing at his peak, I don't think he I don't

0:24:29.640 --> 0:24:32.680
<v Speaker 1>think there's a quarterback who's made the game look easier

0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:35.080
<v Speaker 1>than when Aaron Rodgers is playing at that high of

0:24:35.560 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 1>a level. But Patrick Mahomes and Russell Wilson are creeping

0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>into that conversation. Is there a quarterback you went against that,

0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you just said, he's making it look a lot easier

0:24:47.000 --> 0:24:52.080
<v Speaker 1>than what it really is. Yeah, I mean when we

0:24:52.200 --> 0:24:56.639
<v Speaker 1>played against you know, guys like Marino and now and

0:24:56.760 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I played against those. I mean, I'm played against John

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Elway in eight when they were just humming right along

0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:06.439
<v Speaker 1>with Terrell Davis and Shannon Sharp and Rod Smith, and

0:25:06.880 --> 0:25:11.359
<v Speaker 1>John made it look so simple because he knew, he

0:25:11.480 --> 0:25:13.879
<v Speaker 1>knew what you were doing before you actually got to

0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:16.640
<v Speaker 1>do what you were getting ready to do. And when

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:19.080
<v Speaker 1>you still have you know, that cannon of an arm

0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:21.479
<v Speaker 1>and you can put the ball wherever you want. I mean,

0:25:21.520 --> 0:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's tough. Though. The only difference is back then,

0:25:24.800 --> 0:25:27.880
<v Speaker 1>obviously the intimidation fact there were still a big part

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of defensive play in terms of how how you can

0:25:31.119 --> 0:25:34.200
<v Speaker 1>enforce the middle of the field and hit people, and

0:25:34.880 --> 0:25:36.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, the quarterbacks were protected, but it's not like

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 1>it is now. Past interference was still called, but it's

0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:43.200
<v Speaker 1>not like it is now. So you still had some tools,

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:46.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, in your tool kit to deal with guys

0:25:46.080 --> 0:25:49.440
<v Speaker 1>like that. But see now, I mean there's a reason Dan,

0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you see, I mean, there's a reason why

0:25:50.880 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>the numbers as far as yards for a temp yards

0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:57.480
<v Speaker 1>for season touchdown passes are going up. And when you

0:25:57.520 --> 0:25:59.240
<v Speaker 1>have a guy like Patrick, and you have a guy

0:25:59.320 --> 0:26:02.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, guys like Aaron and Russell, you know, who

0:26:02.720 --> 0:26:04.960
<v Speaker 1>are really taking their game to a whole new level.

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:07.720
<v Speaker 1>From mental standpoint, When you have those kind of guys

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:09.600
<v Speaker 1>combined with their physical skills and then the rules the

0:26:09.600 --> 0:26:12.439
<v Speaker 1>way they are, it just puts defenses in such a

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:15.680
<v Speaker 1>bad spot. Man. I mean they if you if you're

0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:18.600
<v Speaker 1>if you're a premium defensive player right now, meaning you're

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:20.719
<v Speaker 1>the kind of guy who truly can come up with

0:26:20.760 --> 0:26:24.400
<v Speaker 1>the pvus and interceptions and make plays on the ball

0:26:24.440 --> 0:26:27.119
<v Speaker 1>in a consistent basis, I would I would say that

0:26:27.160 --> 0:26:29.480
<v Speaker 1>you probably deserve even more credit now than you would

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:32.160
<v Speaker 1>have backed at Meyer in the nineties because it's almost

0:26:32.240 --> 0:26:35.800
<v Speaker 1>it's impossible to play high quality defense on the consistent basis.

0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:39.200
<v Speaker 1>He's Lewis Riddick ESPN Monday Night Football Analyst. They got

0:26:39.320 --> 0:26:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Falcons at Lambeau against the Packers next Monday night at

0:26:43.480 --> 0:26:47.479
<v Speaker 1>eight pm Eastern? Was last night's game? More about Kansas

0:26:47.520 --> 0:26:51.280
<v Speaker 1>City or more about Baltimore? In your opinion, it's a

0:26:51.280 --> 0:26:53.600
<v Speaker 1>little bit of both. It really is. Look I think

0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:58.040
<v Speaker 1>with Kansas City, with they knew that they have a

0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:00.679
<v Speaker 1>lot of continuity on their coach staff, a lot of

0:27:00.680 --> 0:27:03.280
<v Speaker 1>continuity on their team. All the key players are back,

0:27:03.320 --> 0:27:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and with Patrick leading to charge, I mean, you know

0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:08.320
<v Speaker 1>that they're going to come out of the gates fast,

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:11.240
<v Speaker 1>and they were, you expected them to have a good performance.

0:27:11.840 --> 0:27:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I think with Baltimore they expected to play much better.

0:27:16.000 --> 0:27:18.840
<v Speaker 1>So on the downside, it's about them in the sense

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:21.440
<v Speaker 1>of is this just a blip on the radar as

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:23.320
<v Speaker 1>far as when you're just kind of really focusing in

0:27:23.400 --> 0:27:27.119
<v Speaker 1>on Lamar Jackson in his development or are they not

0:27:27.200 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>as far along? Is he not as far along as

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:32.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe people fought after the first two weeks and after

0:27:32.320 --> 0:27:34.960
<v Speaker 1>the season he put together last year, we're gonna see

0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:36.760
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna just have to go back into the lab,

0:27:36.840 --> 0:27:38.760
<v Speaker 1>so to speak, and figure out why was it that

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:42.359
<v Speaker 1>they couldn't get that passing game on tracked and or

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:44.440
<v Speaker 1>on track, and why he couldn't hit some of those

0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:45.920
<v Speaker 1>deep shots that they were trying to call on the

0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:48.560
<v Speaker 1>outside because they were there, he just missed a few

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:51.040
<v Speaker 1>of them. And he has to hit those in order

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:53.479
<v Speaker 1>for this offense to get much better and for them

0:27:53.520 --> 0:27:56.320
<v Speaker 1>to be able to score twenty one, twenty eight, you know,

0:27:57.040 --> 0:28:00.080
<v Speaker 1>thirty five points and wind shootouts like they had to,

0:28:00.359 --> 0:28:02.120
<v Speaker 1>like they would have had the one one last night

0:28:02.320 --> 0:28:03.640
<v Speaker 1>in order for them to get to where they want

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 1>to get to. And then on the flip side too,

0:28:05.359 --> 0:28:08.200
<v Speaker 1>they look their defense was exposed a little bit last night.

0:28:08.359 --> 0:28:11.280
<v Speaker 1>It's maybe a one off because Pat Patrick is going

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:14.400
<v Speaker 1>to expose a lot of people like that. But we'll see,

0:28:14.400 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>you see. I mean, I mean, I'm just that whole

0:28:16.000 --> 0:28:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Pat Patrick. Didn't you know what you do? Yeah? I know,

0:28:20.359 --> 0:28:22.159
<v Speaker 1>but you know what, but you know, I like I

0:28:22.280 --> 0:28:25.280
<v Speaker 1>like the young man so much. I mean, he really is.

0:28:26.040 --> 0:28:27.960
<v Speaker 1>And I say this, you know, not the distract from

0:28:28.000 --> 0:28:29.800
<v Speaker 1>the guy. I mean, I'll call him Patrick, I'll get

0:28:29.840 --> 0:28:33.120
<v Speaker 1>it right. But he is he truly is. Then he

0:28:33.160 --> 0:28:37.600
<v Speaker 1>truly is. He is a one of a kind individual.

0:28:37.760 --> 0:28:39.400
<v Speaker 1>And I'm tight with a lot of those guys down

0:28:39.400 --> 0:28:42.200
<v Speaker 1>there in Kansas City. They had hit a home run

0:28:42.320 --> 0:28:44.320
<v Speaker 1>in ways in which I don't think they ever could

0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:48.560
<v Speaker 1>have imagined. Oh my good day. I mean, you know

0:28:48.560 --> 0:28:50.920
<v Speaker 1>what he did, the way he made it look last night,

0:28:51.720 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 1>it's like he was just like just playing I mean

0:28:54.480 --> 0:28:57.840
<v Speaker 1>literally just playing a kid's game and having fun with it.

0:28:57.680 --> 0:29:00.480
<v Speaker 1>It's really it's it's ridiculous when it looks that it

0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 1>really is. And it takes me back to when I

0:29:02.760 --> 0:29:05.600
<v Speaker 1>saw him at Texas Tech and I had no idea.

0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:07.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not one of those guys who've said, yep, I

0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:10.720
<v Speaker 1>can see the great news there. I just remember coming

0:29:10.760 --> 0:29:12.720
<v Speaker 1>in on a Monday and telling my guys, they said,

0:29:12.760 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you got to watch him. He's playing in the backyard

0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 1>and like pointing, like you go over there, and you

0:29:18.600 --> 0:29:20.960
<v Speaker 1>go over there, and he's putting up forty points and

0:29:21.040 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>a half against Oklahoma State. He wasn't winning, and I

0:29:24.760 --> 0:29:26.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, then I read all the draft reports and

0:29:26.600 --> 0:29:29.240
<v Speaker 1>they're like, oh, too much of a gun slinger, you know,

0:29:29.720 --> 0:29:33.239
<v Speaker 1>risk taker, like all of these things. And I couldn't help.

0:29:33.280 --> 0:29:36.040
<v Speaker 1>But every time I watch him play Lewis, I think

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:39.120
<v Speaker 1>of the Chicago Bears, Like, what if the Bears had

0:29:39.200 --> 0:29:43.960
<v Speaker 1>drafted Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, they're they're thinking the same thing,

0:29:44.400 --> 0:29:47.600
<v Speaker 1>and you know they are. I mean, every everyone's doing

0:29:47.600 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 1>that to themselves. But I think it's the perfect marriage

0:29:51.840 --> 0:29:54.920
<v Speaker 1>between he and coach Reid and coach of the enemy,

0:29:55.160 --> 0:29:58.120
<v Speaker 1>and the fact that they had Alex Smith there that

0:29:58.200 --> 0:30:01.440
<v Speaker 1>could really help Patrick kind of kid himself into a

0:30:01.560 --> 0:30:04.720
<v Speaker 1>nice groove from a preparation standpoint on and off the field.

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:07.440
<v Speaker 1>He's already he's naturally a good individual anyway, so he

0:30:07.520 --> 0:30:10.160
<v Speaker 1>has that foundation and base as far as you know,

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:13.240
<v Speaker 1>conducted himself like a professional. But they brought him along

0:30:13.280 --> 0:30:16.719
<v Speaker 1>the right way, Bret beats the GM really you know,

0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:20.440
<v Speaker 1>surrounded him with good players. They taught him the right way,

0:30:20.840 --> 0:30:22.720
<v Speaker 1>and then they just kind of turned them loose and

0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 1>him and Andy just have that have that nice for

0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:28.120
<v Speaker 1>poor and Eric the enemy and Mike after the quarterback coach,

0:30:28.120 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 1>and it's just the situation is so good for him,

0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and he is so good for the situation. I mean

0:30:36.080 --> 0:30:37.840
<v Speaker 1>when you hit on things like that, I mean that

0:30:37.840 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 1>that that can just absolutely solidify your career as a coach,

0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:44.080
<v Speaker 1>as a GM, as a quarterback coach. I mean, it's

0:30:44.120 --> 0:30:47.440
<v Speaker 1>just he's that rising tide is going to lift so

0:30:47.480 --> 0:30:50.280
<v Speaker 1>many people down there, and rightfully so it's it's a

0:30:50.280 --> 0:30:52.360
<v Speaker 1>beautiful thing to see because we've seen this happen on

0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the flip side, where situations are just bad, man, and

0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:58.960
<v Speaker 1>they just ruined players and ruined coaches and ruined people's reputations.

0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Because they can't it on the head the way they

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:04.000
<v Speaker 1>need to as far as striking that balance. So the

0:31:04.080 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 1>people in Kansas City enjoy it. Man, enjoy it. You

0:31:07.720 --> 0:31:10.600
<v Speaker 1>got a great situation. I'll leave you with this. You

0:31:10.640 --> 0:31:14.720
<v Speaker 1>had the Saints in Las Vegas last week. When you

0:31:14.760 --> 0:31:18.800
<v Speaker 1>start to like, when can you tell a quarterback has

0:31:18.840 --> 0:31:22.440
<v Speaker 1>a tired arm or just doesn't have not maybe doesn't

0:31:22.440 --> 0:31:25.160
<v Speaker 1>have it or not willing to throw the ball twenty

0:31:25.200 --> 0:31:31.920
<v Speaker 1>yards downfields? Where now people starting to critique Drew Brees. Yeah,

0:31:32.000 --> 0:31:35.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it's when when they start to lose that don't.

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to say courage because all guys are courageous. Really,

0:31:38.920 --> 0:31:40.200
<v Speaker 1>they don't mean to get to this level and be

0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:42.840
<v Speaker 1>as good as Drew is. But when they start to

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:46.480
<v Speaker 1>really choke it down and just want to get the

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:48.440
<v Speaker 1>ball out of their hand and not stand in there

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 1>and maybe take that extra shot, either because one they

0:31:51.600 --> 0:31:54.320
<v Speaker 1>don't want to take those hits anymore, or two they

0:31:54.400 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>just don't have the same horsepower in their arm, that's

0:31:57.680 --> 0:31:59.920
<v Speaker 1>when you start to get the idea in your head

0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:02.520
<v Speaker 1>that maybe they're not just quite the same anymore. They're

0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:05.440
<v Speaker 1>not willing to take that risk either because they're scared too,

0:32:05.440 --> 0:32:07.200
<v Speaker 1>because they don't think they can get it there or

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:09.320
<v Speaker 1>they don't want to like risk taking those hits in

0:32:09.320 --> 0:32:11.840
<v Speaker 1>the pocket anymore. And I know it's early in the

0:32:11.880 --> 0:32:14.000
<v Speaker 1>season Withdrew, and look, he's one of the greatest of

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:15.720
<v Speaker 1>all times, so you don't want to jump the gun.

0:32:16.440 --> 0:32:19.040
<v Speaker 1>But when you start seeing those things happen, and if

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:22.320
<v Speaker 1>they started happening on a repetitive basis, you're going to

0:32:22.400 --> 0:32:25.200
<v Speaker 1>start asking those questions more and more and more. You

0:32:25.280 --> 0:32:26.680
<v Speaker 1>have to give him the benefit of the doubt. You

0:32:26.680 --> 0:32:28.360
<v Speaker 1>have to give Sean Payton the benefit of the doubt

0:32:28.360 --> 0:32:30.440
<v Speaker 1>because they've been so good for so long. And remember,

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Michael Thomas isn't playing, so let's just see how this

0:32:33.560 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>plays out. But the signs are starting to show up.

0:32:37.720 --> 0:32:41.800
<v Speaker 1>And look, it's inevitable. It's going to happen everyone. You

0:32:41.880 --> 0:32:45.239
<v Speaker 1>just hope it's not so abrupt like it seems to

0:32:45.280 --> 0:32:47.520
<v Speaker 1>be at this point in time with how you know,

0:32:47.520 --> 0:32:49.680
<v Speaker 1>he's struggling a little bit, but you know he's one

0:32:49.720 --> 0:32:51.920
<v Speaker 1>of the ultimate frows. I'm sure he'll have an answer

0:32:51.920 --> 0:32:54.800
<v Speaker 1>for this in due time. Good to talk to you

0:32:54.960 --> 0:32:58.400
<v Speaker 1>once again. Congratulations on the gig. There we're talking to

0:32:58.520 --> 0:33:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Lewis Riddick ESPN Monday Night Football Analysts, Packers and the

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Falcons next Monday Night from Lambeau Louis, thanks for getting

0:33:04.760 --> 0:33:10.480
<v Speaker 1>up with us. Absolutely, that's Lewis. Don't call him lou Riddick. Yeah,

0:33:10.520 --> 0:33:13.320
<v Speaker 1>he got into that habit of calling Patrick Mahomes Pat,

0:33:14.440 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 1>and his mom reached out and his dad is Pat Mahomes,

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:23.240
<v Speaker 1>former baseball player. Seaton knows all about this. I do. Yeah,

0:33:23.320 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I do hate being called Pat. Yeah, I really do.

0:33:27.480 --> 0:33:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Because your real first name is Patrick, right, and your

0:33:30.400 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 1>middle name is Seaton. Right. And now I'll introduce myself.

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I find this a lot now where I'll introduce myself

0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'll say Hi, I'm Patrick, and the say, hey, Pat,

0:33:39.960 --> 0:33:42.520
<v Speaker 1>how do you correct somebody you just met ten seconds ago?

0:33:42.520 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I'd be like, no, no no, no, I introduced myself as Patrick.

0:33:45.600 --> 0:33:47.040
<v Speaker 1>If I wanted you to call me Pat, I would

0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 1>have said, Hi, I'm Pat. Well, why don't you just

0:33:49.320 --> 0:33:54.520
<v Speaker 1>say hi, I'm Seaton. Oh, because that's even worse. I'm sorry.

0:33:54.520 --> 0:34:00.240
<v Speaker 1>What then you have to explain? Right, Yeah, you know

0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Seaton Hall. Oh you went to Seaton Hall. No I

0:34:03.400 --> 0:34:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get into Seaton Hall. No I didn't, but

0:34:05.520 --> 0:34:10.320
<v Speaker 1>my dad did. Oh, and these big joke because I always, uh,

0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:13.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm lucky he didn't go to Slippery Rock. It's still crushes.

0:34:13.920 --> 0:34:17.319
<v Speaker 1>It still crushes. It's a good joke. What's the other one?

0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:20.719
<v Speaker 1>Skid more that? Uh? That would have been unfortunately would

0:34:20.719 --> 0:34:23.279
<v Speaker 1>have been bad. Yeah? Patrick? Is anyone allowed to call

0:34:23.320 --> 0:34:25.360
<v Speaker 1>you Pat? Does anyone call you Pat? Oh? Yeah? For

0:34:25.600 --> 0:34:27.520
<v Speaker 1>most of my family calls me Pat. Do they know

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:31.280
<v Speaker 1>they you don't like it and they don't care hin

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:35.319
<v Speaker 1>now you know, you know what they like to be

0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:37.920
<v Speaker 1>fair to them. My whole the first like twenty two

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:41.280
<v Speaker 1>years of my life, everyone called me Pat. And then somewhere,

0:34:41.320 --> 0:34:44.000
<v Speaker 1>once I moved from New Jersey to Connecticut, somehow I

0:34:44.040 --> 0:34:46.480
<v Speaker 1>became Patrick. And I don't know. Maybe it's just like

0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:49.480
<v Speaker 1>being an adult or something. I don't know, but yeah,

0:34:49.560 --> 0:34:52.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I prefer Patrick. It's like when your wife

0:34:52.480 --> 0:34:55.359
<v Speaker 1>says Patrick could always I stop, and I'm like, because

0:34:55.400 --> 0:34:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not used to hearing that, you go Patrick, And yeah,

0:34:59.160 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 1>it's not like you did something wrong, it's just she calls.

0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:03.480
<v Speaker 1>She'll just say Patrick, asking you a question, and it

0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:05.920
<v Speaker 1>always goes that's right then. But I can I can

0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:08.080
<v Speaker 1>always tell that she's getting sick of me though, like

0:35:08.120 --> 0:35:10.719
<v Speaker 1>because I'm I could be a handful um as you

0:35:10.719 --> 0:35:12.680
<v Speaker 1>guys know, and I can always tell us she's getting

0:35:12.680 --> 0:35:16.600
<v Speaker 1>sick of me though, because I just hear and like

0:35:16.640 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm gonna go. One too many jokes. I'm

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:22.080

0:36:26.840 --> 0:36:29.000
<v Speaker 1>came in two thousand and four. They spent eighty days

0:36:29.000 --> 0:36:31.720
<v Speaker 1>in the Bubble, becoming the first of the four major

0:36:31.760 --> 0:36:35.479
<v Speaker 1>North American professional sports leagues to crown a champ during

0:36:35.520 --> 0:36:37.960

<v Speaker 1>pros that are working hard every day. They've got delivery

0:36:43.200 --> 0:36:46.000
<v Speaker 1>options to get you what you need and they do

0:36:46.040 --> 0:36:48.200
<v Speaker 1>it so you can get the job done. Keep doing

0:36:48.239 --> 0:36:50.879
<v Speaker 1>what you do, whatever it takes. The Home Depot, how

0:36:51.000 --> 0:36:55.160
<v Speaker 1>doers get more done? Mclovin whole question, you're going to

0:36:55.239 --> 0:36:57.439
<v Speaker 1>settle on one. It was weird to watch that call

0:36:57.560 --> 0:37:02.600
<v Speaker 1>last night with Doc Emeric and there's fans, but it

0:37:02.760 --> 0:37:06.239
<v Speaker 1>had all the presentations of hey, this is a celebration,

0:37:06.320 --> 0:37:09.080
<v Speaker 1>you just won a title. I mean, Gary Bettman didn't

0:37:09.080 --> 0:37:10.879
<v Speaker 1>get booed live. I thought they were going to pipe

0:37:10.920 --> 0:37:13.879
<v Speaker 1>in booing sounds for the commissioner. Every time he brings

0:37:13.920 --> 0:37:18.040
<v Speaker 1>the Stanley Cup out, he gets booed. But the players

0:37:18.080 --> 0:37:21.880
<v Speaker 1>were celebrating. But you know, it lacked a little bit

0:37:21.920 --> 0:37:24.080
<v Speaker 1>of that ambiance. That we're so used to when you

0:37:24.120 --> 0:37:26.560
<v Speaker 1>have teams winning a championship. So what's pull question? McLear

0:37:26.760 --> 0:37:28.480
<v Speaker 1>put it for hour one. Are you jumping off the

0:37:28.560 --> 0:37:33.279
<v Speaker 1>Ravens bandwagon? Which is reasonable because it is a week

0:37:33.280 --> 0:37:38.759
<v Speaker 1>three Yeah. Yeah, but it comes down to, you know,

0:37:38.840 --> 0:37:41.800
<v Speaker 1>can they come from behind to win a game? And

0:37:42.360 --> 0:37:46.759
<v Speaker 1>can Patrick? Can Lamar Jackson put up a big performance

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:48.880
<v Speaker 1>in the postseason? Those are going to be the questions.

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:52.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, this entire regular season is once we get

0:37:52.320 --> 0:37:55.040
<v Speaker 1>to the postseason, if they fall behind, can they come

0:37:55.080 --> 0:37:57.719
<v Speaker 1>back and win? And how does Lamar Jackson do in

0:37:57.719 --> 0:37:59.839
<v Speaker 1>a big moment? You know, this is also on that

0:38:00.239 --> 0:38:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens defense that I thought was one of the

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:05.520
<v Speaker 1>elite defenses in Kansas City made it look like it

0:38:05.560 --> 0:38:10.160
<v Speaker 1>was pedestrian there at times. Yeah, McLevin. A couple other

0:38:10.160 --> 0:38:13.279
<v Speaker 1>options because I feel like maybe we're overreacting even more

0:38:13.280 --> 0:38:15.680
<v Speaker 1>than usual this year. Maybe it's a pandemic, but people

0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:17.680
<v Speaker 1>are assuming that Russell Wilson is going to throw seventy

0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:20.480
<v Speaker 1>five touchdowns and no picks. So which QB is most

0:38:20.520 --> 0:38:22.879
<v Speaker 1>likely to come back down to earth a little bit?

0:38:23.239 --> 0:38:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Mahomes Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers or Josh Allen is well,

0:38:28.520 --> 0:38:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I would probably do Josh Allen because he doesn't have

0:38:31.040 --> 0:38:35.279
<v Speaker 1>a track record there. You know, Seattle's got a real

0:38:35.360 --> 0:38:39.800
<v Speaker 1>problem here with their defense. They've given up twelve hundred

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:45.040
<v Speaker 1>passing yards, I believe through the first three games something.

0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's the most passing yards a team has

0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:50.799
<v Speaker 1>ever given up to start a season. I don't know

0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.840
<v Speaker 1>how you get better, but you know, even with Jamal

0:38:53.880 --> 0:38:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Adams in there, but they they're going to be in

0:38:57.239 --> 0:39:01.600
<v Speaker 1>shootouts this year. And therefore, Patrick, why do I keep

0:39:01.680 --> 0:39:05.400
<v Speaker 1>saying Patrick Russell Wilson Junior the third is going to

0:39:05.480 --> 0:39:07.600
<v Speaker 1>have to put up big numbers this year and that'll

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:11.760
<v Speaker 1>help him when it comes to the MVP race. Aaron

0:39:11.800 --> 0:39:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers it feels like has kind of found his groove

0:39:13.840 --> 0:39:15.719
<v Speaker 1>a little bit here. You know. It feels like there's

0:39:15.719 --> 0:39:18.759
<v Speaker 1>a good rhythm there and maybe he likes he's buying

0:39:18.800 --> 0:39:21.759
<v Speaker 1>into the game plan there. Mahomes is going to be

0:39:21.800 --> 0:39:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Mahomes Lamar Jackson. You know, we expect him to put

0:39:26.160 --> 0:39:28.680
<v Speaker 1>up big numbers as well. Yeah, Paul Rodgers may not

0:39:28.760 --> 0:39:31.279
<v Speaker 1>have monster numbers as far as touchdowns and yards because

0:39:31.320 --> 0:39:33.479
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't throw the ball at time. He doesn't throw

0:39:33.520 --> 0:39:36.279
<v Speaker 1>the ball forty times. They're leaning towards running if they can,

0:39:36.440 --> 0:39:39.160
<v Speaker 1>especially in that division where the other three teams aren't

0:39:39.160 --> 0:39:41.160
<v Speaker 1>that good. He's only he's not even top ten in

0:39:41.160 --> 0:39:43.719
<v Speaker 1>the league and attempts. But I think this makes him

0:39:43.760 --> 0:39:46.480
<v Speaker 1>so much more dangerous when you have that true running

0:39:46.480 --> 0:39:49.280
<v Speaker 1>game and he's got a great running back there, and

0:39:49.640 --> 0:39:53.359
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't throw interceptions, doesn't make bad decisions, and if

0:39:53.400 --> 0:39:57.120
<v Speaker 1>I think he's more patient and realizes this kind of

0:39:57.120 --> 0:40:00.600
<v Speaker 1>offense is a little more balanced and tougher to defend

0:40:00.880 --> 0:40:03.319
<v Speaker 1>because if one thing isn't working, the other thing could

0:40:03.400 --> 0:40:06.680
<v Speaker 1>be working. And when they work in unison, that's you know,

0:40:06.719 --> 0:40:09.399
<v Speaker 1>when you're winning games. You're going undefeated through the first

0:40:09.640 --> 0:40:11.880
<v Speaker 1>three weeks of the season. A couple of phone calls

0:40:11.880 --> 0:40:13.920
<v Speaker 1>in here, Oh look, who's here to take a victory?

0:40:14.000 --> 0:40:18.359
<v Speaker 1>Lap Ted and Tampa Ted, Congratulations, welcome back. Hey, I'm

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:21.000
<v Speaker 1>calling from the top of the mountain, Tampa or New York?

0:40:21.000 --> 0:40:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Are you kidding? Would you rather have the Stanley Cup

0:40:24.239 --> 0:40:27.640
<v Speaker 1>winning boats for the Islanders? Would you rather have Tampa

0:40:27.680 --> 0:40:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Bay or a combined team of the Jets of the Giants?

0:40:31.080 --> 0:40:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Would you rather have Plant High School or the Knicks.

0:40:36.080 --> 0:40:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Ted, thank you. Congratulations there. Yeah, you got

0:40:39.520 --> 0:40:43.080
<v Speaker 1>the Tampa Bay Rays, and you know I'm taking Tampa

0:40:43.120 --> 0:40:50.000
<v Speaker 1>over the Yankees. It's the season of Tampa. I think, yes,

0:40:50.120 --> 0:40:51.799
<v Speaker 1>the club that's a good pole. Would you rather have

0:40:51.840 --> 0:40:58.200
<v Speaker 1>no team or the Knicks not having a team. Your

0:40:58.200 --> 0:41:00.799
<v Speaker 1>heart's never broken, you're not frustrated, you just don't have one.

0:41:01.960 --> 0:41:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Like the Knicks fans, it's been two decades since irrelevant. Yeah,

0:41:07.560 --> 0:41:11.279
<v Speaker 1>well they're relevant with their how bad they are, like

0:41:11.400 --> 0:41:14.560
<v Speaker 1>they're in, they're in the conversation because we're always talking

0:41:14.560 --> 0:41:17.240
<v Speaker 1>about how they screw things up. I mean, they're relevant,

0:41:17.320 --> 0:41:21.239
<v Speaker 1>relevant for all the wrong reasons. There Kyle in California,

0:41:21.239 --> 0:41:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Hey Kyle, what's on your mind today? But first off,

0:41:26.920 --> 0:41:30.160
<v Speaker 1>with the Clippers and Doc, you know, that's just that

0:41:30.320 --> 0:41:32.920
<v Speaker 1>place they need exorcism over there. I don't know, maybe

0:41:32.920 --> 0:41:35.480
<v Speaker 1>they should they did a little rebranding, Maybe they should

0:41:35.480 --> 0:41:39.120
<v Speaker 1>get rid of the Clippers altogether. And I'm glad you're

0:41:39.120 --> 0:41:42.040
<v Speaker 1>having Mannix on. You can ask him about what he said.

0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:44.359
<v Speaker 1>He must be shocked the Lakers or even here, ask

0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:46.000
<v Speaker 1>them if they're going to get swept. I think he

0:41:46.080 --> 0:41:51.319
<v Speaker 1>said unprovoked. The Lakers more likely to miss the playoffs

0:41:51.560 --> 0:41:56.640
<v Speaker 1>than win the championship unprovoked. That's unbelievable, he said, thank you, Kyle,

0:41:56.960 --> 0:41:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Yes he did. I remember asking him that question. I

0:41:59.719 --> 0:42:05.200
<v Speaker 1>was like, wow, we're recording that Jesse and Los Angeles. Hey, Jess,

0:42:05.200 --> 0:42:08.440
<v Speaker 1>what do you have for me today? Hey, good morning, DP.

0:42:08.680 --> 0:42:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for taking my call. Yeah, hey, I had

0:42:11.160 --> 0:42:14.719
<v Speaker 1>a commented question for you. First on Doc Rivers getting lego. Hey,

0:42:14.719 --> 0:42:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Paul George, if he didn't realize this championship at bus

0:42:17.200 --> 0:42:19.479
<v Speaker 1>this year, tell that to your now unemployee ex coach.

0:42:20.080 --> 0:42:23.880
<v Speaker 1>And then on the Ross Tucker his comment from yesterday,

0:42:23.960 --> 0:42:26.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm wondering is that no infamous is Chris Mannox? Is

0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Spain is stack? Quote Well no, I think Mannox will

0:42:31.200 --> 0:42:34.880
<v Speaker 1>always that Spain is stacked quote dis because it was like, Wow,

0:42:35.920 --> 0:42:42.520
<v Speaker 1>who says Spain is stacked? Mannox does? And playoff Paul

0:42:42.760 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 1>should realize that the stakes were extremely high this year.

0:42:45.880 --> 0:42:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he realizes now with the Clippers that this wasn't

0:42:50.200 --> 0:42:52.920
<v Speaker 1>sort of that introductory offer to the playoffs and hey,

0:42:53.120 --> 0:42:55.799
<v Speaker 1>we'll get him next year. I think, first of all,

0:42:55.800 --> 0:42:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Spain is stacked. I mean they're a team with for Mannox,

0:43:00.000 --> 0:43:02.719
<v Speaker 1>he'll join us in the final hour. Keegan Michael Key,

0:43:02.840 --> 0:43:05.799
<v Speaker 1>the actor comedian Key and Peel. He'll join us coming

0:43:05.880 --> 0:43:09.759
<v Speaker 1>up this next hour. And the Broncos narrow down an

0:43:09.840 --> 0:43:13.480
<v Speaker 1>unbelievably sad quarterback decision. We'll have that for you coming

0:43:13.560 --> 0:43:17.680
<v Speaker 1>up as well. You can dial us up, email, tweet,
