1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: Boom, Shaka laka. It's our number one, our number one,

2
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: and a happy Tuesday to you. It is the ninth

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: day of September and we had a humdinger of a

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Monday night game here on the Ben Maler Show. We reacted,

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: we said up all night to react to the Vikings

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: Bears game as Minnesota came storming back in the fourth

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,080
Speaker 1: quarter down double digits and they pulled out the win.

8
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 1: How did you grade though the better story in the

9
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: losing locker room? How did you grade Ben Johnson's debut

10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: as head coach in the Windy City? An epic choke

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: job at the end? What did you make of Cabb

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: Williams maiden voyage under this new offensive system for the Bears?

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: And give me your reaction to JJ McCarthy his first

14
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: Viking start, which wasn't much of anything for three quarters,

15
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: and then quite the juxtaposition in the fourth and final period.

16
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: We'll talk about all that and more right now here.

17
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: It is our number one.

18
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: Now that is the full Chicago Bears experience right there,

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: big money coach, number one draft pick, and wow that sucked.

20
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: Welcome in the beginning. Come another night of the Ben

21
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: Mahlor Show. We are in the air everywhere, birds of

22
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: a feather.

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: As we are rolling and strolling through the overnight hours,

24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: coast to coast, border to border and beyond. On the

25
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:38,279
Speaker 1: vast and downright, powerful microphones of fs are ammundating live

26
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: from the eye do it low, the eye of the hurricane,

27
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: the world famous Fox Sports radio studios. That Bears found

28
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: themselves in a bit of a late hurricane there. And

29
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: we know that this portion of the Ben Maler Show

30
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: on Fox made possible apart by our friends at ty Iraq.

31
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: For over forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers

32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: like mister Irrigation find the right tires for how, what

33
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: and where they drive. That's right alf and for doukship

34
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: fast and freeback by free road hazard protection with convenient

35
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: installation options like mobile tire installation, tire rack dot com

36
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: the way tire buying should be. So our lead this

37
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: hour to begin the night. We start out from sweet Home, Chicago,

38
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,119
Speaker 1: right there the shores of Lake Michigan, iconic Soldier Field,

39
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: so iconic the Bears can't wait to leave there and

40
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: go to a new stadium out in the suburbs. But

41
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: for now they're still playing at Soldier Field. They'll be

42
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: there for a couple more years until they build that

43
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: new shiny taj Mahall Stadium and then gouge people to

44
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: go to the stadium. That's the way businesses done in

45
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: the NFL anyway. So Soldier Field, that was the stage

46
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: right there, with the skyline of Chicago on one side,

47
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 1: and then you had the lake on the other Lake

48
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: Michigan there and the final act of the opening weekend

49
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: the NFL twenty twenty five season, Vikings and Bears and

50
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,679
Speaker 1: FC North slobber Knocker, slabber knocker. Now, this was an

51
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,519
Speaker 1: island game. You know, we love our island games. We

52
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 1: love island games. So if you were watching, you likely

53
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: know what happens. It happened. If not, maybe if you

54
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: were watching, you might not have paid attention. This game

55
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: is over. Perhaps you missed it, but don't worry. We

56
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: watched so you would not have to. In a very

57
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: shaky beginning, they're very wobbly, wobbly beginning for JJ McCarthy,

58
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: the rookie, even red shirt rookie, red shirt rookie JJ McCarthy,

59
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: who then in the fourth quarter went bonkers. He had

60
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: not one but two fourth quarter touchdown passes ran for

61
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: another score in his long awaited NFL debut, the former

62
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: first round draft pick. The Vikings snapped out of the

63
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: duldrums dreadful performance and they end up getting and when

64
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: you only remember the outcome, you won't remember how bad

65
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: the game was from the Minnesota side of things for

66
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: three quarters. But they end up winning it on a

67
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: big push twenty seven to twenty four over the Bears.

68
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: So that's good for the Vikings for our purposes, though,

69
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: the better story is in the losing locker room. So

70
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: that is where we are going to go, Sweet home

71
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: Chicago Bear football right there. Holy crap. So the debut

72
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: of Ben Johnson as the Chicago Bears head coach, the

73
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: big money coach who's spent time as the Lions offensive

74
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: coordinator and that's where he built his legacy, and so

75
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: many teams wanted Ben Johnson to be the coach, and

76
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: here's his opportunity in Chicago, and he inherited the former

77
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: number one overall per in Caleb who call Williams, who

78
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: is bounced all over the place in college and now

79
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Looks like he should be bouncing somewhere else.

80
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: The way he played in this game. So with the

81
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: better story being in the losing locker room, let us

82
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: discuss for the esteem panel, how did you grade Ben

83
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: Johnson's debut as a coach in the Windy City. So

84
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: I've got utility Bill, the coasters, and hearse, and we

85
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together, and we're going

86
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: to make the Baba Ganooche. We're gonna make it early.

87
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: We're gonna make the Baba ganooge here early on. So

88
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: my first thought here as we connect all these things together,

89
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: my first thought is, and I wrote this down, how

90
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: do you grade Ben Johnson on the Malor report card?

91
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: How do you grade his debut as coach of the Bears?

92
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson the Malor report card? I wrote down. I

93
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: didn't write down an A. I wrote down, s O B. Now,

94
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: not what you think, not what you I wrote down,

95
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: Same old Bears. That's what I wrote. You probably thought

96
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: it meant something else, Same old Bears. That's that's right.

97
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: They dominated for three quarters. We're really dominated for two

98
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: quarters defensively part of a third. The big interception there.

99
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: They did control. The tempo was a low scoring game.

100
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: Minnesota could not get out of their own way and

101
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: Yet when it was time to finish the opponent off

102
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: the kill shot and put them six feet under. What

103
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: happened not good. Chicago decided to slide into their snuggie.

104
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: The Bears there and they went into hibernation mode and

105
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: it burned them. It burned them. Proof that there is

106
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: no such thing as momentum. The Bears had all the momentum,

107
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: should have won the game. Minnesota had no momentum. Why

108
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: would the Bears give up momentum? It makes no sense

109
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: because it's not real, you dummies. Anyway, So the Chicago

110
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: Bears hired Ben Johnson, who is on the pulse of

111
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: He's at the forefront of modern offensive NFL football. That

112
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: was the selling point of Ben Johnson, right, slick agent,

113
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: the whole thing. And so there we go. Instead of

114
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: the next gen, which is all the nerd rage, the

115
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: next gen and all that, this was the dormant Bears,

116
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: and it was a Bear jamboree, a country bear jamboree. Here.

117
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: Every time they had a chance, and there were multiple

118
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: opportunities to deliver the knockout punch and just end the game,

119
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: they tapped out, I can't do it, cannot do it.

120
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: Not gonna happen. Instead, they landed, They landed some little

121
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: jabs they couldn't land the haymaker could not land the haymaker,

122
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: and Ben Johnson's team pulling punches, which you generally don't

123
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: want to see. Listen, I have no skin in the game,

124
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: and I'm not a Bears fan or anything like that.

125
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: But the power went out and they forgot to pay

126
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: their utility bill, and then he needed it most. They're

127
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: late in the game, just make one or two plays

128
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: who win the game, and they had nothing, so they

129
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: forgot to pay the utility bill. There at Soldier Field,

130
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: the power went out. And this is not just a loss,

131
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: mind you, this is two losses for the Chicago Bears,

132
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: because not only lose at home, but you lose a

133
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: divisional game in what figures to be a pretty close

134
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: nip and talk division. So now you've really lost two

135
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: games at home and in the division for the Bears.

136
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: That's a double gut punch, is what that is. And

137
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: this is supposed to be the New Bears, right, the

138
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: new Bears, all that crap that we read and heard about,

139
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: Oh it's gonna be different now, oh yeah, it's gonna

140
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: be different. Okay, So the job was to protect home

141
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: field advantage soldier field. Instead, you hand the w to

142
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: the Vikings because as much as we're gonna rip the

143
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: offense for the Chicago Bears, the defense. Also, what happened

144
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: there to the Chicago Bears defense. I guess Dennis Allen's

145
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: back to being a moron after we were really just

146
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: kissing his ass on the TV. Brock just oh, Dennis

147
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: Allen's defense and all that stuff for three quarters and

148
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: then in the fourth not so much. Now as for

149
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: the inevitable.

150
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 3: What are you doing?

151
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: It's it's only one game. Why do you have all

152
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: these strong opinions after one game? You know that crowd

153
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: spoiler alert, spoil Guess what? Guess what. It's a daily

154
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: talk show. I am. I asked to give my opinion

155
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: as things unfold. They don't ask me to wait to

156
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: the end of the year. I've told management, I said, listen,

157
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: why don't you just pay me a lot of money.

158
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: I'll have no opinions. I'll be boring. There's a lot

159
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: of people that do this that are very boring, don't

160
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: know a strong opinion, and I'll just do that and

161
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: then just give me like a big bag of money.

162
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: At the end, I'll never get an opinion wrong. It'll

163
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: be wonderful, it'll be glorious, it's great. But this is

164
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: all we have to judge the Bears on. All we

165
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: have is one game, one game to judge Ben Johnson

166
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: on and the other factor. And I noticed this watching

167
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: the way the Bears were throwing the football around, Like

168
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 1: the margin for error in that style of offense for

169
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears is razor thin. And

170
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: it's a pass half offense. That's what they do. They

171
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: incorporate the running game via short passes and all that stuff.

172
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: But you're playing outdoors, you're not playing in a dome

173
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: like you were with the Detroit Lions. You've got that

174
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: win from Lake Michigan. Swirling around when it gets later

175
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: in the year becomes a big problems like a blender

176
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: goes swirling around. You've got that to deal with. You've

177
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: also got the occasional dormant weather, whether it's fog or

178
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: snow when you get late in the year, assuming you

179
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: even have a mathematical chance of leaning those games and

180
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: having them mean something. If you're the Chicago Bears and

181
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: you're struggling in September weather, And I mean, just you

182
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: think about what's gonna be like down the line in Chicago,

183
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: and it's like wow. And so that's why you can't

184
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: call it progress. They lost the game. They rode the

185
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: vomit comet and they crashed it into the side of

186
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 1: the building there. Man, it was bad. It's a piecemeal

187
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: effort to close the game. Did they think they were

188
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: gonna play with a running clock or something like that,

189
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, here's Ben Johnson, the man of

190
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: the hour. Here is the coach of the Chicago football team,

191
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: pointing out the key to wins and losses. Take a

192
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: us disappointing way to start the season there for us.

193
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: You think you can have a seventeen to six lead,

194
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: that's right. Yeah, did go the way it did there

195
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. You know, we said going into

196
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,719
Speaker 1: Week one that the team that would make the least

197
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: number of mistakes would win the game, and unfortunately we

198
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: were on the wrong side of that. We made too

199
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: many there late in the game. Myself included Yeah, So

200
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: the coaches always have to include themselves in that. You

201
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: can never say to the players. You always have to say, well,

202
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm part of that when when you most coaches are like, well, no,

203
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm not. That's these are the idiots that screwed up.

204
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: I didn't screw up. They screwed up. They have to up.

205
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: I had a good game plan, they didn't listen. It's

206
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: a bad job by so shame on them. The new

207
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: shiny offense right, looked look shiny for but ten of

208
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 1: ten to start the game for Caleb Williams. And then

209
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: and then things started popping up that weren't to pop

210
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: up there. The Bears teased you, they gave some hope.

211
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 1: There were people excited that, oh this is great, Bears

212
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: are gonna get off to the one and oh start

213
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: and then they pulled the rug right from underneath you

214
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: and Caleb Williams is a debut in the new offense.

215
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: Not a lot of fireworks, and for the balance of

216
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: the game there it was more like a sparkler, not

217
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: explosive pyrotechnic. It was more of a sparkler and it

218
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: fizzled out before the game ended. Batch out by him

219
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: all right. Now. Secondly, speaking of that wide angle ents

220
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: wide angle, NZ, what did you make of cavib williams

221
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 1: maiden voyage as the new Chicago Bears offense gets put

222
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: into place. So what do you think? So it was

223
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: a tune that topped the hot one hundred back in

224
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: the day from the Coasters called yackety Yac and the

225
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: song goes, yakay ac, don't talk back. In this case

226
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: it was yackety act don't fight back. That's the Bears.

227
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: They just they had the lead. The Vikings said we

228
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: want this. The Vikings took it, and the Bears were

229
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: that's what they did. And Caleb Williams, it turns out

230
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: he's multitasking. He's actually moonlighting Caleb Williams as an elevator operator.

231
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,719
Speaker 1: I know they don't have many of those left. I

232
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: know if you go down to the Hotel del Cornado

233
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: there in San Diego, they have elevator operators. And so

234
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: he was leaving the elevator door open. He hit the

235
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: button that says leave doors open, and he left it

236
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: wide open. He said, come on in, come on in Minnesota, Vikings.

237
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: I'll give you a ride right to the penthouse where

238
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: there's serving w's. You can have one. Knock yourself out.

239
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 1: So here is Caleb Williams, a man that always has

240
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: the best looking nails on the football field, and here

241
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: is him talking about a bunch of gibberish about this,

242
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: that and the other. Mentality.

243
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 4: We'll take all this that mentality, mentality, have something that

244
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 4: we know that we preach.

245
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: And does that work it out?

246
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: And I'm not it's not a play call thing, it's

247
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 4: not a anything like. That's just being able to go

248
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 4: out there and execute the players that are called and

249
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 4: be able to you know, EXECUTEHM at a high level.

250
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: And that's something.

251
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 4: That we take pride in. And you know, today that

252
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 4: didn't happen, and we're going to get back to it.

253
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: The good news is Caleb went out, he found in

254
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: All Night parlor. He got a manny and a petty

255
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: after the game, so he's feeling a little pressed, but

256
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: he got the manny and the petty, so he's in

257
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: good shape. All right. Now, How bad was Caleb to

258
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: allow the Vikings to come back, right, because it's not.

259
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: You can't just come back and win a game unless

260
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: other team sucks. Remember we talked about this in the

261
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: Sunday Night game where the Bills cannot mathematically come back

262
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: without the thumbo bug on the rug by Derrick Henry. Well.

263
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: In this game, it was just consistent suck in the

264
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: second and third quarters where the Bears had opportunities. Talked

265
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: about that to close the game out, for example, I

266
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: went back, I did the Malord math in the second

267
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: and third quarter. Caleb Williams attempted seventeen passes. He completed

268
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: less than fifty percent of them. He averaged les less

269
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: than five yards per attempt. He was horrible. And so

270
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: what was missing? Well, after a minute long deliberation on

271
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: the difference between the offense the Lions had with Ben

272
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: Johnson and the offense we saw from the Chicago Bears,

273
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: the thing that was missing, the secret sauce for Ben

274
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: Johnson and the Lions was the yards after the catch

275
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: of the yak at the yac and they didn't have

276
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: that right Detroit would turn and he still he didn't

277
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: do it much against Green Bay, but they'll turn that.

278
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: Those little swing passes and the big chunky Peter peanut

279
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: butter plays and all that good stuff. You'll stick to

280
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: your mouth kind of peanut butter. Hard to defend. The Bears. Now,

281
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: they did have a couple of big plays, but not

282
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: enough and more smooth peanut butter. Smooth peanut butter, creamy,

283
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: easy to swallow and no bite. There's really no bite

284
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: to it. A few extra yards, but it was mostly

285
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: catch and crash is what it was. All right, now,

286
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: final though, So we go now to the winning locker

287
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: room where it looked pretty bleak. It looked pretty bleak

288
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: for a long stretch of time, but in the end,

289
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings came back. And so give me your

290
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: reaction to JJ McCarthy in his first start with the Vikings.

291
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: Is the glass half full or is the glass half

292
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: empty on the first go round of JJ McCarthy. So

293
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: what a juxtaposition? Why don't we start with that? What

294
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: a juxtaposition? Because the first three quarters of this game,

295
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: I was texting some friends and we were going back

296
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: and forth and say, wow, this is one of the

297
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: worst performances I can remember, Like, this guy looks like

298
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: he'd never played football before. Holy crap. You could literally

299
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: see him urinating down his leg. It was wild. And

300
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: so you go from that where he was having a

301
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: nice meal at the Shaky's Pizza parlor and you know,

302
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: just the sticky floors, kind of the low quality pizza,

303
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: the mojo potatoes, and the pitcher of flat soda had

304
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: all that going for him, and he's just sitting there,

305
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: not even close to looking like he knows what he's

306
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 1: doing as an NFL quarterbacks, Like wow, it was like

307
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: he was living in Pukesville. And how bad was he?

308
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm glad you asked. So the first three quarters of

309
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: an NFL game, JJ McCarthy was at seven of twelve passing,

310
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: which is not good average less than five yards per

311
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: pass attempt. Had fifty six total yards passing through three

312
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: quarters of the game, one interception that was a pick

313
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 1: six to give the Chicago Bears an extra score, a

314
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: passer rating of thirty five point four going to the

315
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. That was the passer ready. So that means

316
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: that they, they being the Minnesota Vikings, would have been

317
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: better off off calling up a hearse and holding a

318
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: mock funeral procession for the duke and burying the duke,

319
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: putting the duke, putting the duke down in the ground, right,

320
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 1: and then just ordering some tombstone pizza and that's it.

321
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: See you later. Because the fun fact that we will

322
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: use this from time to time. If McCarthy had just

323
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: spiked the ball every single time he had snapped the ball,

324
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: if he'd spiked the ball every single time into the ground,

325
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: his passer rating would have been thirty nine point six. Statistically,

326
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: he was actually worse by attempting to pass than if

327
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: he had not passed. And it wasn't just bad, it

328
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 1: was historical bad for McCarthy for three quarters. Like it

329
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: was worse than just don't screw up, just kind of

330
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: be a game manager, that's the baseline. Like the Vikings

331
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: essentially played three quarters of an NFL game with a

332
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: mannequin at quarterback. That's what they had and it didn't match.

333
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: The Bears still left the door open. We talked about this,

334
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams leaving the door open, the opportunity of the air,

335
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: and they took advantage of it. Now, Kevin O'Connell is

336
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: the Viking head coach. I'm sure he's not going to

337
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: say anything negative about the first three quarters of JJ McCarthy. Instead,

338
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: we'll focus on the end of the game. Is that correct,

339
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 1: coach JJ McCarthy.

340
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: For him to make some of the plays he did,

341
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 3: I told him at halftime, you are going to bring

342
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 3: us back to win this game, and the look in

343
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 3: his eye was fantastic. The best thing is just a

344
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: belief I felt from the team unit, and ultimately that

345
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 3: doesn't get done without him. In the second half, two

346
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 3: passing touchdowns and then the critical rushing touchdown.

347
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: You smell that, Yeah, bull crap, that is bull crap.

348
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: That is hot bull crap by Kevin O'Connell. Holy crap,

349
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: what a dummy I told him? Yeah? Is that why

350
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: he went out after halftime and threw a pick six

351
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: in the third quarter? Is that why, coach? Because you

352
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: had told him, let's make it even worse, let's dig

353
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: a bigger hole. Why not? Why not? Oh? Man, Well

354
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: he did light it up in the fourth quarter, but

355
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: man alive. It was like a cheat code there late.

356
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: But the first three quarters. Greek tragedy goes from it.

357
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: We talk about a rewrite. It goes from a Greek

358
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: tragedy where everyone's dead, the stage is covered in blood

359
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: to a Shakespearean comedy. All's well, that ends. Well, just

360
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 1: like that there, and unfortunately there is a problem. You

361
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: cannot just live like that in the NFL. Obviously, right,

362
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: you can't stink for forty five minutes and then expect

363
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: to play Superman in the fourth quarter. That generally doesn't happen.

364
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: It's not Disneyland, it's not like that and it's not sustainable,

365
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: so good luck. We'll give him credit for the comeback.

366
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: Hell of a rally there for the Vikings to come

367
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: back and win it. But the narrative, I'm sure will

368
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: be praising JJ McCarthy and how great he was and

369
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: there was and all that stuff. To me, though, you

370
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 1: cannot ignore the first three quarters of the game that

371
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: he was at the salad bar and he was serving

372
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 1: up suck salad and that's what it was. So that's

373
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: a bit of a reality check. I would think he's

374
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: a rookie. So yeah, there's gonna be some bumps on

375
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: the road and all that, but man, the Vikings, if

376
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: that's the way it's gonna go, you talk about a

377
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 1: roller coaster situation. Holy Kenody. Anyway, it is the Ben

426
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: to it we go. Firduck says, not only did Chicago

427
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: lose the game, they lost their team as well. Why

428
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: would the Bears want to leave such a safe clean city.

429
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: I can't, for the life of me figure it out. Yeah,

430
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: the suburbs, these suburbs are calling. Can we do a

431
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: wellness check on Tree in Chicago's tree? Okay? Can we

432
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: see if he's all right down on our buddy Tree there.

433
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 7: I'm a little worried, like to know if he's over.

434
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: I'm little worried about him there. He's a big Bears guy.

435
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: He's probably more focused on the Cubs. Not that that's

436
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: going great either. Andy in line o' lakes rights and

437
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: says a minus on the opening mount of monologue. I

438
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: think JJ has only played three quarters of preseason football

439
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: the past two seasons. He probably should have played more

440
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: this year. And the Bears are who we thought they

441
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: were and we didn't let them off the hook. Great

442
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: tribute to the late great Dennis Green worked here. Alf

Speaker 1: the Alien, Opina writes, Since there's nothing against you, Ben Mallard,

444
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: but you've got no skin in the game. What the

445
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: militia want to hear from is hardening commentary from the

446
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: number one Bears fan, Lucky Tony. That is a great point.

Speaker 1: a senior member. And that's a great point. That's where

450
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: the story is. And this guy, Lucky Tony, he calls up,

Speaker 1: the person that had you know, I got to represent

463
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: the Viking nation. I got to represent the purple people eaters.

464
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: A man who eats anything purple, anything blue, anything green,

465
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,840

477
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm struggling having this. Let me shut that down radio.

478
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: Someone's listening. You do not want to be banned? No,

479
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: that was how about this? It was otherworldly? Does that work?

480
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: Other world?

481
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 9: It was? It was Wayne's world in the game.

482
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, is this the greatest Viking wins since the famous

483
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: game against the Saints?

484
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 9: I want to let you miracle?

485
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 1: Well that's what I was talking. Yes, I referenced it. Yes,

486
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: the I understand. Was this the This has to be

487
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: the craziest win since then? Although actually that's not even

488
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 1: that's not even true. Though, didn't the Vikings came back

489
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: against the Colts and that was a Saturday afternoon game.

490
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: I remember the Colts had a thirty something point lead

491
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: in that game. That was Matt Ryan was a couple

492
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: of years ago.

494
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 9: quarterback of the cardiac kids.

495
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: Brian, I'm waiting for Dick and Dayton to call up

496
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: with the Brian Sipe take. That's interesting.

Speaker 1: was not at the met Greek. You met Doc Mike.

501
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: Doc Mike was at the meet and greet. You didn't

502
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 1: meet Dick and Dayton. Doc Mike was who hasn't called

503
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,480

00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 9: hear all your ben mother malicious to follow.

506
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: Okay, I feel you lost your voice. I need to go.

Speaker 1: so we'll send that out on social media. So you

513
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: believe that that win was so juicy, It was such

514
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: a delicious win for the Vikings that if they were

515
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: to start losing games rapidly, you'd be okay with that

516
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: from the pure bliss that you're feeling right now, the

517
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: joy in your heart from beating the Chicago Bears. If

518
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: they go out and stumble back to back to the

519
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: Falcons and Bengals at home, you'll be okay with that. Yes,

520
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: I got relatives in Chicago. Heck yeah, okay, So do

521

545
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: game on the Benny versus the Penny on YouTube. No,

546

Speaker 1: a there we go. That's the next step. I hope

551
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: you enjoy that. Let's go now to tiger Man, a hero.

552
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: We met tiger Man at the Mall of Meat Greed

553
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: from the great date of Missouri where there are tigers,

554
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: but his heart is in batar rouge. Hello tiger Man.

555
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 8: Ben, you know what on a night where you know

556
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 8: all five of my teams, Jaden and Joe in the NFL,

557
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 8: then LSU, d YU and Utah all game the wins,

558
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 8: I'm calling you disappointed. We have the best wide receiver

559
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 8: at all of football who had one catch for four

560
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 8: yards and three quarters.

561
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean you gotta get honey.

562
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 8: Come on, Justin Jefferson is a generational talent. You can't

563
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 8: do that. They need a quarterback, you know, JJ. If

564
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 8: there wasn't for all the spy Gates stuff, he would

565
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 8: be nothing.

566
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 9: He's a Sonnith brown.

567
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 8: Pick at best and unbelievable. I'm just very disappointed.

568
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: And that's see, that's a good take. That's why we

569
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,719
Speaker 1: like you, tiger Man. That's an original take that McCarthy's

570
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: a fraud, that he hardly threw the ball at Michigan

571
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: and it was all because of the spy stuff, and

572
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: that's why he was good. And you take all that away,

573
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: and what do you get? YEA for three quarters? Maybe

574
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: the Vike Did they start using binoculars you think in

575
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter or something like that. Maybe they went

576
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: the old Michigan tricks.

577
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 8: Well, I think it's Hossle obviously. You know Cottner Stallions.

578
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 8: He's just working at a heighth school now, so he

579
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 8: probably needs to get some side gig.

580
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: What do you are you working at a fat tiger Man?

581
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: Are you working at a factory? What do you I

582
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: hear a lot about I'm me a noise in the background.

583
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: Where are you at, tiger Man?

584
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 8: Oh, I'm on a run, right, now Ben, sorry, he's

585
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 8: on the run.

586
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,959
Speaker 1: Look at this guy's running from the cops. He's on

587
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: the run. Tiger man, Dan go tigers all right this leek, yes,

588
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: thank you, all right, go get back to what you're

589
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: doing there, Thank you, tiger man. Big the LSU guy

590
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: and Jefferson ended up with he had four catches for

591
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: seventy seven yards or forty four yards, not seventy seven

592
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 1: forty four yards as it's hard to have more than that,

593
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:55,719
Speaker 1: the Vikings passing offense man, which makes it all the

594
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: more ridiculous that they came back and won the game

595
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 1: the way they did. Who as el stinko as they.

596
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 7: Were through it.

597
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: You slept through the game. You go to bed right

598
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: before kickoff or something.

599
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 7: No, I slept from nine to four and then again

600
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 7: from five thirty till eight.

601
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: That would be the majority of the game. Yeah, big

602
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: sleep day for you.

603
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,240

Speaker 7: I think I slept okay. I don't know why I

607
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 7: was so.

00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 7: WHOA I had them two hours after I ordered them, Coop,

619
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 7: I don't want to, yeah, but I do, I say,

620
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 7: I don't see any cheese curds in here. It's a

621
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 7: big mound of melted cheese.

622
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: You have to it, You don't.

623
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 7: Melted cheese is not poutine. Cheese curds are melted on

624
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 7: top of fry. No, yes they are.

625
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: Well, there's a gravy sauce that the smothered. There is

626
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: a day short ribbon. Well, cheese curds sounds like poutine

627
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: to me. It's not cheese curds. It's just cheese.

628
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 7: No, it's cheese curds. They were curdy when they came out,

629
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 7: and then they curdy.

630
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: And they melted. Yeah, and they melted on. You can't

631
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: eat poutine. Poutine is one of those foods you gotta

632
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 1: eat right away.

633
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 7: You can't know. It was just a really large portionon

634
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 7: but you know.

635
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: Me, yeah, you cannot. You can't recreate the magic of

636
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: the boutine because you can't put in the microwave because

637
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: then the cheese will become rubbery. Yeah you can, so

638
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: you can't do that, and you can maybe put in

639
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: an air fryer maybe, but even that, like the quality

640
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: will be very good and not very good. Anyway. It
