You know, I think we're all learning 10 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: in real time that you can try and project and 11 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: predict and forecast how things are gonna go without any 12 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: evidence whatsoever, and ultimately you're gonna get disappointed. We'll get 13 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: into that because it's playing out in the world of 14 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: football right now, and we're gonna have that for you 15 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: coming up here in just a couple of moments from now. 16 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 2: It is Jonas Knox here on Fox Sports Radio.

So normally you would never just 23 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: see somebody on site. I mean, you hear these stories 24 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: and they're few and far between where somebody says, man, 25 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: I saw this somebody on site, and you know, I 26 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: knew right then and there that was gonna be the 27 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 2: person I married. I mean, it's a little creepy if 28 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: you think about it, Like it's a little creepy, like 29 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: you see somebody walk down the street, you see somebody 30 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: in a crowded mall or a grocery store, and it's like, man, 31 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: I just knew the second I saw them that was 32 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 2: gonna be the person I married. No, you sound like 33 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: a psychopath. And the only reason you think that is 34 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 2: because fifteen minutes later they're probably going to be in 35 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: the trunk of your car. It's crazy. Normally, you need 36 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: a first date, maybe a second date, probably a third, 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 2: and you need to build some time together before you 38 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 2: decide you want to build a life together. That's usually 39 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: how that goes. But for some reason, in college football, 40 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: we do this thing, you know, like it's this really 41 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 2: odd thing where we do preseason rankings. You know, like 42 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: they come out with the preseason top twenty five, and 43 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: so I'm just kind of you know, looking over the 44 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: preseason top twenty five, and I'm seeing like some teams 45 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 2: near the top, like Ohio State, Like okay, Ohish States there, 46 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: and I'm just going to go like going through the 47 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: top four. I'm looking at like the four teams that 48 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: are in the top twenty five. I see Texas is there. Well, 49 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 2: that didn't work out. Then I'm like Penn State and Clemson. Hmmm, 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 2: where are they at? Oh, that's right, they got married 51 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: to the Pinstripe Bowl, you know what I mean? Like 52 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: that was your preseason. Two of the top four teams 53 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: in the preseason top twenty five are currently playing a 54 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:32,399 Speaker 2: game at Yankee Stadium. At some point, this whole exercise 55 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: of let's forecast what the season should look like, and 56 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 2: who's this without any game being played. At some point, 57 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: somebody's got to have a real conversation and be like, yeah, 58 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 2: this doesn't make any sense, Like this really just doesn't 59 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: make any sense. Like these two teams were predicted before 60 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 2: the season as two of the top teams in college football, 61 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: like we're talking about and it's not even look like 62 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: you know, preseason top for top five shortest national championship 63 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: bots and that happens sometimes, you know, sometimes like hey, 64 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: who do you think is going to win the National 65 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: Championship or the Super Bowl or the NBA Finals? Do 66 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 2: you come out with these pre hey, you know, things 67 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: pop up and think. But like, let's be honest here, 68 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: even before injuries and anything else that went down, these 69 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: teams were awful. They were bad. Kid Klubnick was one 70 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: of the favorites to win the Heisman Trophy. Hasn't gone well. 71 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: We know what went down to Penn State. It took 72 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 2: him two months to find a head coach. They found 73 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 2: a good one, but that was a disaster. It just 74 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 2: at some point, somebody's really got to stay. And you 75 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: know what this is, It's because we're so starved for football. 76 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 2: We get so hungry for it that the second anything 77 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 2: football related comes around in the summertime, we just jump 78 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 2: all on it like we're famished, like we've got to 79 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: have anything football. So all of a sudden, these top 80 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: twenty five rankings go oh oh wait, wait, wait, wait, 81 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: hold on, where's your evidence, Like what game have you 82 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: seen to indicate to you that these teams are tough? 83 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: Like where is this? And ultimately a lot of the 84 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 2: time it ends up like this, and then you start 85 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: to look back and you go at some of the 86 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: teams that beat them earlier in the year, it's like, oh, 87 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: they had to win over this team and they were 88 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: a top four to It's like, okay, and what we've 89 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 2: done this show in this timeslot all year long, and 90 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: let me tell you what we've talked about all year long. 91 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: Hey man, Clemson's getting beat again. Hey, what do you know? 92 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 2: Penn State's getting beat again? Hey, And yet these were 93 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: two of the top four teams in the preseason top 94 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: twenty five. If you needed any further evidence that you 95 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 2: need further evidence before you determine what's right for you 96 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: and what's not. Get a whiff of the Pinstripe Bowl 97 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: at Yankee Stadium where two top four preseason teams are 98 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: battling it out with a six to three score at 99 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: the start of the second half. At the Jonas Knox 100 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: on x at Jonas Knox Show on Instagram and you 101 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: can hang out with Us is always on the iHeartRadio app. 102 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 2: So I don't know if you had seen this, you know, 103 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: but apparently Max Crosby's not a big fan of being 104 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 2: told that they're going to shut him down. For the 105 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 2: remainder of the season. So the Raiders are an awful 106 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 2: football team. I don't know if anybody's got a glimpse 107 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: of that, but the Raiders are an awful football team. 108 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: And so Max Crosby, according to Jay Glazer yesterday, he 109 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: was the first to report this. Max Crosby, on being 110 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: told that the Raiders are going to shut him down, 111 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: he was not going to be playing in this big, 112 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: big time matchup with the New York Giants coming up 113 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: later on on Sunday. Max Crosby left the facility happy 114 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: about it. So Pete Carroll, the Raiders head coach, he 115 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: spoke about the interaction breaking the news to Max Crosby 116 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: and how things played out yesterday in the building. 117 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 4: It just looks too bad and so and he didn't 118 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 4: want to take the news like that, and I didn't 119 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 4: want to take the news like that. And so we 120 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 4: just worked our way through to get to this point 121 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 4: where and he's been packing on Fridays and he wasn't 122 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 4: you know, he'd have gone if we let him, he'd 123 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 4: have been out there and he would not have hesitated. 124 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 4: But he knows that he's banged up, so so you know, 125 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 4: he's talking about you know, I'd like to get out 126 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 4: of here, and I said, yeah, get out of here, 127 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 4: you know, so he took off reaction? 128 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: Was it anger or in terms of him? And he 129 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: left the build as to leave the building? Did he 130 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: leave pissed off? 131 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 4: Or or he the competitor that he is the reaction 132 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 4: that he that he We've been talking about for a 133 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 4: couple of days. What's going is spring on? We've been 134 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 4: talking about it, and uh, it was exactly like you 135 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 4: would think he would do and he and he should do. 136 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 4: And I agree with him one thousand percent on how 137 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 4: he responded, and I responded the same way, and I 138 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 4: get it. And so we fought away through it and 139 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 4: just came to the hopefully the right conclusion, you know, 140 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 4: for the you for his long long betterment. 141 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: Yet Pete, when he said I got to get out 142 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: of here, he didn't mean like just today, like he 143 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: meant in general like this. I think I think maybe 144 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: Pete misunderstood you know, the like how long of a 145 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: like whatever the Raiders thought they were doing this year, 146 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 2: whatever this plan was, This ain't it. And I don't 147 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: want to hear anybody sell me on well, you know, 148 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: it's just a it takes time, you know, like they're 149 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 2: working through some things. No, no, no, let's not misconstrue 150 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: what happened here. It's not as if the Raiders went 151 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: out and drafted a developmental quarterback or a used a 152 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 2: second round pick, or a Tyler Shuck type situation, or 153 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 2: even a Shad or Sanders type situation. The Raiders went 154 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 2: out and absolutely one hundred percent expected to be more 155 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: competitive than they were this year, one hundred percent. And 156 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 2: any Raider fan, any fanboy, or ball washing Raider supporter 157 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: who tries to sell you otherwise and say, no, it's 158 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: a rebuilding year. Stop stop. Pete Carroll is in his seventies. 159 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 2: This isn't a we hired a young guy and we're 160 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 2: gonna work through this together because we're building a culture. 161 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: Why do you think they went from Ben Johnson who 162 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: was thirty nine to Pete Carroll in their seventies, Like, 163 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: why do you think that might have happened? Because the 164 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: Raiders really, you know what, let's let's go ahead and 165 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: let's try and compete to a certain extent now and 166 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 2: at least show some sort of growth, some sort of 167 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 2: something towards the end of the year. Maybe we're not 168 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: a playoff team, but you know what, if we could 169 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 2: be like a six to seven win team and be 170 00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 2: really competitive, we're good with that. Instead, they're being celebrated 171 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: because they kept it close with the Texans. If you 172 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: go back through the season, they have gotten worse, not better. 173 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: They've gotten worse, and Max Crosby's looking around, going, dude, 174 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 2: what is the plan? What are we doing? We talked 175 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: about it a couple of weeks ago. Diana Rassini that 176 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: a Raiders player in the building was like, yeah, we 177 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 2: don't really know what's going on here, Like we're not 178 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 2: really sure what is happening. And so Pete Carroll's talking 179 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: about you know, listen, Max, you know, wanted to leave, 180 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 2: but just you know, his injury was too bad. It 181 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 2: was to this. He's got a you know, Max Crosby's 182 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: looking around going a man, I just want to play football, 183 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 2: and I want to play football for a good team, 184 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: and I've been battling it out. One of the only 185 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: bright spots of the team, a team who, by the way, 186 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: took a running back as high in the draft as 187 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: they did, and some people look at that and question it, 188 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: like the whole thing has in a mess. A full 189 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 2: blown whiff. So when the discussion becomes, hey, you know, 190 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: Pete Carroll could be gone after this year. This could 191 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: be a one and done. Well, yeah, Like I don't 192 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: root for anybody to lose their job. Ever, I'm never 193 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: gonna campaign for anybody to lose their job. It's not 194 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: my thing. Maybe it's yours, it's not mine. But if 195 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 2: we're basing this on, what sort of positive growth have 196 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: you shown? We don't expect you to win a super Bowl, 197 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 2: we don't expect you to be a playoff team, we 198 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: don't but have you shown positive growth? The answers no, 199 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: and in fact the answer is f no. This is 200 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: as bad as it gets. Max Crosby leaving the facility. 201 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: Pete's like, yeah, you know, I agree with his decision. Yeah, 202 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 2: because you're probably looking around and going, yeah, I'd like 203 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: to get out of here too, Like you know what 204 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 2: we got to get rid of chip Kelly. It's like 205 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 2: the whole thing is a disaster, that whole chip Kelly 206 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 2: reporting on. Chip Kelly doesn't know, you know, what formations 207 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: are out there, Like he doesn't know this, he doesn't know, 208 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 2: Like that's Geno Smith, that's people from Geno Smith's side 209 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: reporting on that Gino Smith wasn't brought in to do this. 210 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 2: He was brought in because him and Pete Carroll had 211 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 2: a relationship in Seattle, a good relationship, and Gino Smith 212 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: played well under Pete Carroll. And he's gotten there and 213 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: they got worse. And yes, brock Bauers was injured, and 214 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: there's been injuries to the offensive line, but nobody thought 215 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: it was going to look this bad. Like there are 216 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: certain teams around the NFL who you go, all right, 217 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 2: they at least have a plan, like there's a plan 218 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 2: in place to try and do, like we understand what 219 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: the plan is. There was clearly a plan in Chicago, 220 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: There was clearly a plan in Jacksonville. There was clearly 221 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 2: a plan in New England. But it doesn't even have 222 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 2: to be good teams. Doesn't have to be good teams. 223 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: There was clearly a plan with the Colts. They had 224 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 2: a plan. Unfortunately, everybody got injured and now they pulled 225 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 2: you know, Philip Rivers at a Gettysburg brought him in 226 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: there like all right, can can you try and save 227 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 2: the season. But there's the go around the NFL. There 228 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 2: are plans, like teams that have plans, teams that have 229 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: an understanding like, hey, this is what we're trying to do. 230 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 2: It's going to take some time. We're hoping we could 231 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 2: get there Carolina. Look at New Orleans. New Orleans is 232 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: playing better football right now because they're like, hey, we 233 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 2: have a plan, we understand, Hey, we acknowledge. This was 234 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: no acknowledgment going into the year for the Raiders that like, oh, 235 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: we're just going to be a two win team. We're 236 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: gonna shut down Max Crossby at the end. No, no, no, no, 237 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 2: you thought you'd be way better than this, and you 238 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 2: have failed. They are awful, and Max Crossby finally got 239 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 2: sick of it. It was like, hold on a second, 240 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 2: So I want to play, and you're not letting me 241 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 2: play so that we can get a high draft pick. 242 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: I'll know. His knees too injured. He could barely get dude, 243 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 2: his knees been banged up since what week five, like 244 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: for months? But now we're gonna shut him down. Nah, now, listen, 245 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: you know, we just for you know, for it's for 246 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 2: his health, long term future. Max Crosby's looking around, going, dude, 247 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: I'm twenty eight, I'm gonna be thirty soon. I don't. 248 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: I don't have time to worry about whether or not 249 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: we can figure it out in this draft or not. 250 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 2: That place is a mess. It's a disaster. And Max 251 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 2: Crosby leaving wasn't him just leaving because he wants out 252 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 2: this week and doesn't want to be around anybody this week. 253 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 2: I think Max Crosby's looking around, going dude, I don't 254 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 2: know if this works. I mean, look at the way 255 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: Jay Glazer is as connected as anybody, and look at 256 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: the way the tweet read out, according to Jay Glazer 257 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 2: that the Raiders want to shut him down the last 258 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: two games. Crosby, who has played with injuries for much 259 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 2: of the year Vehetmaly, disagreed and has left the building. 260 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 2: This could lead to qu questions on his future in Vegas, 261 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 2: you think, And the first guy that should be asking 262 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 2: that question is Max Crosby at the Jonas Knox on 263 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: X at Jonas knock Show on Instagram and you can 264 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app. 265 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: All right, so we are going to have the usuals 266 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: coming up later on.

I mean, look, 303 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 2: only fourteen make the playoffs. That means there's a lot 304 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: of other teams that are on the outside looking in, 305 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 2: and there's a lot of other teams that are near 306 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: the bottom, and two of which are partaking in action 307 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: this weekend.

There's some things that have been that 326 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 2: have been forming. You can see it's starting to inflate 327 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 2: a little bit. And that little object that you see 328 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: right outside the Ravens facility, it's called a life raft, right, 329 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: because it appears that maybe there's a couple of holes 330 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: inside the boat that is the Baltimore Ravens, and maybe 331 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 2: there's some people that are just trying to get out 332 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 2: of there. Just be listening. Hey, not to this ain't 333 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 2: on me. This ain't on me. Look this not on me. 334 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 2: And with the Ravens looking at slim odds at this 335 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: point to make the playoffs and win that division in 336 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 2: the AFC, it appears like there are some teams and 337 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 2: some people representing players around certain teams and factions and 338 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 2: clicks inside the building that are just making it known 339 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: that maybe this isn't on them, Maybe it's not my 340 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: fault that we've been disappointing, because let's be honest here, 341 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: and I'm one of them. A lot of people had 342 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens going to the Super Bowl. They have 343 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: been one of the most disappointing teams in the league 344 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:32,959 Speaker 2: by far, by far. And while they've had a lot 345 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 2: of injuries and there's been a lot of stuff going on, 346 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 2: and you could argue there's some guys that have not 347 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: played their best football, Derek Henry being one of them, 348 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 2: the fact of the matter is Lamar Jackson's not been 349 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 2: healthy and Lamar Jackson's missed a lot of time. And 350 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: so I say all that because earlier this week, Mike 351 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 2: Preston of the Baltimore Sun wrote an article and had 352 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 2: the following to say, quote, the breakdown of an NFL 353 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 2: player's body is natural, but Lamar Jackson could help himself. 354 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: He doesn't need to be up late at night playing 355 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: video games or falling asleep in team meetings. He needs 356 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 2: to train more around the castle instead of only attending 357 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: mandatory mini camps where he disappears after one day. Huh boy, 358 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: that sure seems specific. He goes on to say, does 359 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 2: Mike Preston a major problem? A lot of it on 360 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: the Ravens is that there are team rules and then 361 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: there are rules for Jackson. That's why Baltimore practices in 362 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 2: the heat of the afternoon instead of in the morning. 363 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 2: Once the Ravens become critical of Jackson, he becomes more withdrawn. 364 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 2: It's a shame because Jackson isn't a mean spirited person, 365 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 2: just an overgrown kid and an adult's body. Preston then 366 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,959 Speaker 2: says it's clear that coach John Harbaugh has become tired 367 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: of Jackson, even though he builds him up after every game. 368 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: He has to or Jackson will go into his own 369 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 2: self exit. Now that for Mike Preston of the Baltimore Sun, 370 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: John Harbaugh was asked about these reports a couple of 371 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: days ago and had this to say. 372 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 6: Don't take too much credence and anonymous type sources. So 373 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 6: I don't know where that's coming from. I've never seen 374 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 6: I've never seen that ever. You know that that's that's 375 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 6: not something that that I've ever witnessed. And I'm in 376 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 6: every meeting, so and to speculate, I know how I 377 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 6: feel about it. I'll tell you how I feel. You know, 378 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 6: I'm I'm pretty transparent. All the guys in the building 379 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 6: will tell you. You know, if I have something of conversation, 380 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 6: something that I want to talk to him about, I'm 381 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 6: right up front. So that that's you know, that would 382 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 6: be wrong to say that that's not true. I had 383 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 6: a great conversation with Lamar this morning about a few 384 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 6: things and football and how he's feeling and things like that. 385 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 6: So our relationship is is a plus. So I love him, 386 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 6: always have, always will and uh, I know he's fighting 387 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 6: like crazy to get back. So I'm not as reports 388 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 6: or things that gets said or written or whatever. I 389 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 6: don't really preat you. I don't need anybody speaking for me. 390 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 2: So John Harbaugh, as expected, pushed back on the anonymous reports. 391 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: All right, Now, I'm not saying that this is one gospel. 392 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 2: I'll just put it this way. I have talked to 393 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 2: people who know a little bit more about the situation, 394 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 2: people that are maybe close to the situation, people who 395 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 2: know the columnist who wrote the article, And what I 396 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 2: have been told is that, eh, he's he's pretty connected. 397 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 2: He's not just making stuff up. So whether that came 398 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: from John Harbaugh's camp, whether that came from somebody else 399 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: inside the team, inside the building who is getting fed 400 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: up with Lamarge, whatever it is that came from somewhere, 401 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 2: that wasn't made up out of thin air. And according 402 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: to what I've been told, it's not like it's the 403 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: furthest thing from the truth. That there is some validity 404 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: to what's being said and what was reported and what 405 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 2: was written. It's really specific, dude, Like, I mean, what 406 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 2: do we like I could understand you know, something generic, 407 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 2: something you know in general, you want to paint it 408 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 2: with a broad brush, whatever you want to label it, 409 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 2: like something like, uh, well you know he's uh difficult 410 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: to get along with with his teammates. I mean, do 411 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 2: you have examples? Well, no, it's just that it's like, Okay, well, 412 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 2: what does that mean? Or yeah, you know, you know 413 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: he's he's he's late to team meetings. Okay, well, like 414 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 2: like how late? How many times? This is up late 415 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 2: at night playing video games, falling asleep in team meetings? 416 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 2: Like this is pretty specific stuff, and the fact that 417 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 2: that's getting out means that somebody wanted it to get out. 418 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 2: The fact that you were hearing that in detail means 419 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 2: that somebody wants you to hear that. He needs to 420 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 2: be at the facility more. You know, they move, training, came, 421 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 2: and practices, he's there, one day, he's gone. The net 422 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 2: like that is stuff from inside the building that was 423 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 2: meant to get out and meant to get public. I'm 424 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: not saying it was from John Harbaugh. I'm not saying 425 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 2: it was from somebody close to John Harbaugh. But clearly 426 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 2: somebody knows something and somebody wanted that out there. And look, 427 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 2: I've said it on this show before. Lamar Jackson's one 428 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 2: of my favorite players in the NFL. I love I 429 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 2: love the guy. I root for him to win a 430 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 2: Super Bowl to shut a lot of the narratives down, 431 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: all of that stuff. I think he's been fantastic. I 432 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: think he's been great for John Harbrough's career, and I 433 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 2: think he extended John Harbaugh's time in Baltimore. People forget 434 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: when Lamar Jackson first got there in twenty eighteen, when 435 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 2: he was first there, that you had Ozzie Newsome, John Harbaugh, 436 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco. Ozzie Newson was retiring Joe Flacco. They had 437 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 2: made the decision they were going to move on from him, 438 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: and it had been a great run. They won a 439 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: Super Bowl together, and there was conversations they were also 440 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: going to split with John Harbaugh. He was going to 441 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 2: go find a job elsewhere. They were going to do 442 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 2: it on the up and up because it's a great 443 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 2: organization and it's well run. And then all of a sudden, 444 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson got in and they went on a heater 445 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 2: and went to the postseason. John Harbaugh got an extension, 446 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco was gone, but Lamar Jackson was the guy, 447 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 2: and John Harbaugh's career in Baltimore was extended because of it. 448 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: All of that happened. So I think Lamar Jackson's been 449 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 2: great for his career. But as much as I'd love 450 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, ask yourself this, how many times have you 451 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 2: seen a report or heard a report or seen something 452 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: on TV or read something that says Lamar Jackson's got 453 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: the flu or Lamar Jackson did not practice, or Lamar 454 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 2: Jackson was at practice and then did not return. I mean, look, man, 455 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: there was a Monday night game where he just left 456 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: the game and went into the bathroom. Like it's just 457 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 2: so when you hear them say, yeah, he needs to 458 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 2: spend more time in the facility train with us, Like 459 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 2: all of that is specific. It's too specific for it 460 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: to be nothing. And so the fact that this got public, 461 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 2: the fact that John Harbaugh was asked about it, of 462 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: course he's gonna deny it, and he's gonna say, oh, 463 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 2: I don't need people speaking for me, but somebody speaking 464 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: for somebody, and that's coming from somewhere. And the way 465 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 2: I heard it, it wasn't like it was just made 466 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 2: up at of thin air. That there's validity to it, 467 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: and whether this causes problems long term, whether this creates 468 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 2: some sort of a split between the two, whatever you 469 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: want to call it, the fact of the matter is 470 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: that feels like people there are fed up with getting 471 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: to a certain point and not getting beyond, and they 472 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: think a lot of that has to do with the 473 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 2: fact that they've got a guy who's the face of 474 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 2: the franchise who maybe isn't as committed as they'd like 475 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 2: him to be. That's the way I read it.

Absolutely? 503 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: And do you know why they qualify combined record of 504 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: four and twenty eight The New York Giants and the 505 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: Las Vegas Raiders. I mean the Raiders. The best part 506 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: of the team. Max Crosby nowhere to be found. He 507 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 2: just left the facility because they're like, you know what, 508 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: even though you could probably give it a go on 509 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 2: the need that you've been playing on for weeks and 510 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 2: weeks and weeks, we're gonna send you home and we're 511 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: gonna move on with you for the rest of the 512 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: year because we want to make sure you're right for 513 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: next year. No, no, no, no, at least come out and 514 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 2: be honest, we're tanking and we'd like to have you 515 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 2: as healthy as possible so we can maybe acquire some 516 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 2: more draft capital. That's what this is all about. And 517 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: then the New York Giants are out there looking and 518 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 2: they'll be looking for a new head coach. They're trying 519 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: to sell everybody on the fact that, oh, you know what, 520 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: we got our quarterback of the future, we got a 521 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: running back we really like, we feel good about our 522 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 2: draft class.

This 525 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 2: is a problem. The Raiders are a problem. When you 526 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 2: put two problems together and you throw it on an 527 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: NFL schedule, you get the Giants and you get the Raiders. 528 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 2: Two and fourteen, verse two and fourteen.

But 590 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 2: right now, it is time for a weekly tradition we 591 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: have on this show where we tell the brutal truth 592 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: about several storylines you've been force fed over the past 593 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 2: several days from many people in the media. It's time 594 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 2: for this. 595 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: There are so many stories in the world of sports 596 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: and most of them are a complete waste of time. 597 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 2: DMZ reports. Let's get kinky. 598 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: Here's some of the big stories from the last week. 599 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: But Jonas, the real question is do you care? 600 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 2: And for that we turn it over to our executive 601 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 2: producer Bo Benson to find out what the hell people 602 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 2: have been talking about. 603 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 7: Boh, Yeah, Brown's defensive end, Miles Garrett. He said that 604 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 7: setting the sack record. I believe twenty three sacks in 605 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 7: a single season would be the record. Uh, that's against 606 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers this weekend would be special, Jonas, do you care? 607 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: I mean not really. Look, I mean I'd like to 608 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: see him do it, But who cares who you set 609 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 2: the record against? You know what I mean? Like, like, 610 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: what does it matter? It also would be kind of 611 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 2: interesting if he did it against Aaron Rodgers and you 612 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 2: know it was Michael Strahan who did it against you know, 613 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: Brett farre And then you know it was TJ. Watt 614 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: who set the record or tied the record years. It's 615 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 2: just like there's Look, Miles Garrett has been fantastic, He's 616 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 2: been phenomenal as a player. He, like Max Crosby, has 617 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 2: been saddled with playing for a team that's awful, and 618 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 2: an organization that's awful, and yet he's still out there 619 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 2: producing high numbers. I hope he breaks it. I hope 620 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 2: he gets the record. I'd like to see him get 621 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: it sooner rather than later. Who doesn't like to see history? 622 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 2: But I couldn't care less who it's again next? 623 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 7: All right, So this one's a doozy. Bear with me. 624 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 7: The New York Jets rescinded an offer to a Jets 625 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 7: fan to participate in a field goal kicking contest at 626 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 7: halftime of their upcoming game after they discovered that she 627 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 7: was a high school soccer coach and former D one 628 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 7: soccer player. I also believe she mentioned that she was 629 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 7: going to be kicking in honor of her late father, 630 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 7: who was a left long Jets fan. After public outcry, 631 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 7: the team has now decided to allow her to compete 632 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 7: for this prize. Jonas, do you care at all about this? 633 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think this is your mett. I love it. 634 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: It is so on brand for the New York Jets 635 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 2: that I can't even like. You can't even write a 636 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 2: better story. So here's the competition. Who wants to be 637 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: a part of it? Somebody gets excited because they're going 638 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 2: to be part of the competition, and then the Jets 639 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 2: take it away and then cave under pressure from the 640 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 2: New York Post or whoever it was that ran the article, 641 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 2: and then ultimately decide, you know what, upon further review, 642 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 2: we're gonna let you kick. Why don't you just do this? 643 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 2: Just give her one hundred thousand dollars, you know what 644 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 2: I mean? Like at this point, give her a hundred 645 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. And also if she does miss the kick, 646 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 2: If she misses the kick, what are you gonna do? 647 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: Oh sucks. Guess she's been having to suffer through your 648 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 2: garbage franchise and garbage team for years and years and years, 649 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 2: wanting to pay tribute to a relative who passed away 650 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 2: who was a diehard Jets fan.

Or you had like a Brandon 698 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,760 Speaker 2: Weedon or a Chris Wanky who got into the NFL 699 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 2: and they were drafted at twenty seven.

This is I mean, like 711 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 2: we're talking about a national champion here, and you've got 712 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 2: to like serenade somebody to try and get them to 713 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 2: take you as one of the participants in their bowl game. 714 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,720 Speaker 2: Like what is this is like the movie The Wrestler 715 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 2: where Mickey Rourke's like putting on his tape in a 716 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 2: school somewhere, some elementary school. And this was a guy 717 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 2: that played big Arenas. It's kind of sad, it's kind 718 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 2: of depressing, but you know what, hey, it beats not 719 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: having football, so at least we went in that regard. 720 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 7: Next, both of last year's number one seeds in the 721 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 7: NFL have been eliminated from playoff contention this year, Jonas, 722 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 7: do you care? 723 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, it is a weird it's a 724 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 2: weird year for the NFL. Everything's sort of up in 725 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 2: the air. And look, you know how there's a lot 726 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 2: of surprises because there's so many coaches that are up 727 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 2: for Coach of the Year. Like that's another indication, much 728 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 2: like we talked about opening up the show where you 729 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 2: had preseason top five teams who are playing in the 730 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: Pinstripe Bowl, that maybe we don't know what the hell 731 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 2: we're talking about going into seasons, and that's why they 732 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 2: shape up the way they are. The fact that you've 733 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 2: got so many candidates that are up for Coach of 734 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 2: the Year, and you could make a legitimate case for 735 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: all of them. You can make a legitimate case for 736 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,760 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan, you can make a legitimate case for Rabel, 737 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:02,240 Speaker 2: Ben Johnson, Dave Canalis, so many coaches out there, Liam Cohenes, 738 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 2: so many coaches out there, and all that is telling 739 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 2: you is that they are coaches of teams that were 740 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 2: terrible and that we're thought to be not anywhere as 741 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 2: good as what this year has turned out to be. 742 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 2: It also lets you know that they're probably gonna be 743 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 2: two or three of those. They're gonna look like this 744 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 2: year's Washington Commanders. So enjoy why you can enjoy the 745 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 2: ride while you got it, because when the ride ends, 746 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 2: it's gonna look a lot like what Washington looks like 747 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 2: this year. And that's how things are going to play 748 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 2: out for most of those teams coming up in twenty 749 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 2: twenty six. But they is what it is, man, that's 750 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 2: the NFL. They wanted parody and they got it.

And I'm going to 770 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 2: just speak to college football because that's the timeframe we're in. 771 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 2: I know, college basketball is going on, We've got plenty 772 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 2: of time to get into that. We got March Madness, 773 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 2: NCAA Tournament, all that stuff. But one of the things 774 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 2: that's happened in college football is that there's been so 775 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:58,800 Speaker 2: many new versions of college football that have been brought 776 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 2: in that it's kind of nice to get the reminders, 777 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 2: Like it's kind of nice to get the reminders of 778 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 2: what things were, you know, simpler times.

But 785 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 2: although even though college football is fun and it's and 786 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 2: it's you know, the playoff is great and you've got 787 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 2: the best of the best and all of that, and 788 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 2: there's really great storylines. Is going to be some great 789 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 2: games hopefully, and we've got the on site games and 790 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 2: I talked about it last week, the College Football Playoff. 791 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 2: My favorite part of it through one year plus of 792 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 2: the College Football Playoff are the home playoff games. Like 793 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 2: the home atmosphere for the playoff games are awesome. Like 794 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 2: that's a great twist wrinkle change to college football that 795 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 2: I really really enjoy. But like, you know, the NIL, 796 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 2: the transfer portal, Like there's a lot of stuff out 797 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:08,359 Speaker 2: there that's just like what I mean, Look, you know, 798 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: Shroonmore tried his best to get us to look the 799 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 2: other way, you know, on some of the NIL stuff, 800 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 2: and you know, like and listen, he did a great job. 801 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 2: Like it kept our attention for like forty eight hours 802 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,959 Speaker 2: at least. But like, there's a lot of stuff that's 803 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 2: just not, in my opinion, very fun to cover when 804 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 2: it comes to college football. But one of the things 805 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: that is enjoyable. That is kind of nice. Are just 806 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 2: like these random bowl games in the middle of the day, 807 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like just a generic sponsor 808 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 2: just kind of kind of thrown into just the middle 809 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 2: of your afternoon.

Like, 821 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 2: I get all that. And there's a lot of people 822 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,839 Speaker 2: who are gonna tell you, well, it's just not like 823 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 2: what it used to be. You know, it's just not 824 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 2: the same. You know, players don't care as much, so 825 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 2: what it's an exhibition? What does it matter? I mean? 826 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 2: And guess what you want to gamble on it, Go 827 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 2: right ahead. What are you gambling on? I have no idea. 828 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 2: You don't even know who some of these guys are. 829 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 2: It's like the NFL preseason. How do I know? I 830 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: bet on the NFL preseason Hall of Fame game? Love it? 831 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 2: Oh my god. You know how distraughta was when the 832 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame game was going on that year. I 833 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,760 Speaker 2: think I think the Packers were playing and the field 834 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 2: melted and Canton because it was so hot. Oh it 835 00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 2: was great. That was great theater. I mean, that's that's 836 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 2: one of the highlights of that game. You had a 837 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 2: game a couple of years ago. They didn't even finish it. 838 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 2: There was a lightning delay. It's like, let's get out 839 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 2: of here. I don't want to deal with they Like, 840 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get struck by lightning for some nickel 841 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 2: and dime team with a bunch of players that aren't 842 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 2: even going to be in the league in three weeks. 843 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,879 Speaker 2: Like what are we talking about? But there's something fun 844 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 2: about it. And so college football, and I've said this before, 845 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 2: they do their preseason football. They just wait until after 846 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 2: the regular season. You know, you gotta do it at 847 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 2: some point. And so college football rolls out these random, 848 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:38,359 Speaker 2: meaningless bowl games just kind of whatever some goofy sponsors 849 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,720 Speaker 2: middle of the day gives you some like tis this season. 850 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 2: So this is how you know where you're at while 851 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 2: everybody tries to tell you on it it's changing, it's 852 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 2: never going to be the same. And you know, kids 853 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,479 Speaker 2: know their value and they know their worth. That's fine. 854 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 2: I know my value and I know my worth too. 855 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 2: And guess what, nothing makes me feel more valuable than 856 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 2: in the middle of the day putting on the TV 857 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 2: and realizing that it's midway through the third quarter of 858 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 2: the seven to eleven Bowl.

All right, so we've 881 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,479 Speaker 2: got a couple of NFL games that are taking place 882 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 2: later on. We talked a little bit about just the 883 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 2: situation in Baltimore Ravens Packers. I mean, look, Jordan Love's 884 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 2: going to be out, all right, He's still got the concussion. 885 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 2: That's a problem. Okay, so that's not exactly not exactly ideal. 886 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,240 Speaker 2: But Malik willis played well, and if we're being honest 887 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 2: here outplayed Caleb Williams for a lot of that game 888 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 2: last Saturday. But then you've got the situation in Baltimore 889 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 2: in which Lamar Jackson was doubtful. I mean, who the 890 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 2: hell knows if he's going to play. I don't. I mean, 891 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 2: at this point, what are we talking about? But you know, 892 00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens have been a little bit of a mess, 893 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: and so the discussion surrounding Baltimore is always going to 894 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,719 Speaker 2: be about like hey, super Bowl, you know, like, hey, hey, 895 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 2: what about the super Bowl? Like can the Ravens win 896 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 2: a super Bowl? Can they win it? With Lamar Jackson. 897 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 2: There's a report that came out from the Baltimore Sun 898 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,439 Speaker 2: that says Lamar Jackson play stays up too late, play 899 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 2: video games and he's fallen asleep in meetings and all 900 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 2: this stuff. And I'm seeing the reports and I go, 901 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 2: there's too much detail there for it to not be 902 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:27,280 Speaker 2: somewhat true. Like that clearly came from somebody in the building. 903 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 2: And if that's getting out outside of the building, what 904 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 2: are we talking about inside the building? Like, so clearly 905 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,399 Speaker 2: that's a talking point a discussion, Like I don't think 906 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 2: that that stuff just gets made up out of thin 907 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 2: air when it's got that much detail attached to it. 908 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 2: So when it comes to the Baltimore Ravens and the 909 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 2: Green Bay Packers, green Bay's in the playoffs, Baltimore's got 910 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 2: work to do, it's all. But then you got this 911 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 2: other game. And it's interesting because I can speak on 912 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 2: this from being here in southern California. You've got the 913 00:48:56,200 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 2: Texans at the Chargers. The Chargers are in the playoffs 914 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 2: and that's awesome, and the Houston Texans have been a 915 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,360 Speaker 2: really scary team, especially over the past couple of months. 916 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 2: But if this matchup sounds familiar, it's because these teams 917 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 2: met in the postseason last year, and if you remember, 918 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 2: the La Chargers looked like they were about to take 919 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 2: control early on and then all of a sudden, it 920 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:29,759 Speaker 2: was just a meltdown and they looked awful, awful, And 921 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 2: if that seems somewhat familiar, it's because, well, something kind 922 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: of similar happening against the Jaguars. You know, like the 923 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 2: Chargers were playing the Jags in the playoffs, so you know, 924 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, and next thing you know, 925 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 2: the second half kicked off and all of a sudden, 926 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 2: it was just another meltdown, and then they're awful performance, 927 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 2: and then you start to look around and you go. 928 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 2: While the Baltimore Ravens have conversations and thoughts about, hey, 929 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,360 Speaker 2: can we win the super Bowl? Can we go to 930 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,839 Speaker 2: a super Bowl? The Chargers are just like, hey, could 931 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,959 Speaker 2: we just want a playoff game? Like seriously, like let's 932 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:07,359 Speaker 2: just want a playoff game? Like they've gotten to the postseason, 933 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 2: but they find themselves in this spot similar to the 934 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills, where it's like, man, if we could just 935 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 2: get past that Patrick Mahomes, guy, we got a chance here. 936 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 2: Because the only guy that's been able to do it, 937 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 2: there's been two or actually three. One of them is 938 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 2: not playing anymore, that's Tom Brady. The other two Joe 939 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,360 Speaker 2: Burrow's not in the playoffs and Jalen Hurts is in 940 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 2: the NFC. Other than that, nobody's been able to figure 941 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 2: this thing out in the postseason. And so the Bills 942 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 2: and the Chargers find themselves in this spot to where 943 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 2: it's like, man, so he's out, we get a shot here, 944 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 2: and that's all anybody cares about when it comes to 945 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:49,359 Speaker 2: the Chargers, that's it. Like this whole conversation about like, oh, 946 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 2: they're back to the playoffs and Justin Herbert's playing really well, 947 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:53,959 Speaker 2: Like all of that is fun. This is a great 948 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 2: talking point. Yeah, yeah, etc. Etc. We get it, got it, 949 00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 2: Thank you appreciate it. Can you want to play? That's 950 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 2: it and then you go from there. So the discussion 951 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 2: surrounding Lamar, Jackson and Baltimore, like, Lamar's won some playoff games. 952 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 2: I think people can point to the home game they 953 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 2: had in the AFC title game, and a lot of 954 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 2: looks Zay Flowers had a bad game, they fell apart, 955 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 2: They were favored in that game, with an opportunity to 956 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 2: go to the Super Bowl. They at home field. They've 957 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 2: had that happen before. But you've seen Lamar show out 958 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 2: in a playoff game. You've seen him win playoff games. 959 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 2: Justin Herbertson another conversation, and the Chargers are another conversation. 960 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 2: And this isn't just a well you know, Jim Harbaughs 961 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 2: here now man Brandon Staley there was that. You can't 962 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 2: blame Brandon Staley anymore. So I think a lot of 963 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 2: that kind of quietly because it's the Chargers doesn't get 964 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 2: talked about a lot, but it's getting talked about locally 965 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:50,879 Speaker 2: because there's a lot of people looking around going man, 966 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 2: Patrick Malmes is out, Joe Burrow's not in. The Bills 967 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: aren't what they have been in recent years. There's a 968 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,439 Speaker 2: real chance for a wild card team to make a run. 969 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,439 Speaker 2: And the two teams that I look at and say 970 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 2: those are the ones that have the most to prove 971 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: in doing so are the Bills and the Chargers. So 972 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 2: the Chargers may come out and they may light up 973 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 2: Houston later on today, none of it's going to matter 974 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,320 Speaker 2: if they get to the postseason.

He's fine. I mean, 1035 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 2: Dak's fine, like he you know, he's gonna ultimately he's 1036 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,319 Speaker 2: gonna walk away from his NFL career being a fourth 1037 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,480 Speaker 2: round draft pick, and a lot of people have been criticized. 1038 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,800 Speaker 2: I've always thought Dak Prescott was way better than a 1039 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 2: lot of people wanted to to maybe recognize. I think 1040 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 2: part of it is he's a Dallas Cowboy. I think 1041 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 2: people look at that and go, well, you know, you're 1042 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 2: Dallas cowboy, you should be this, and they don't want 1043 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 2: to just take a step back and go, oh, you know, 1044 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,399 Speaker 2: maybe the Cowboys are just kind of mediocre like what 1045 00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 2: they are. I'm sorry, it's been thirty years since they've 1046 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 2: gotten past the second round of the playoffs. But nonetheless, 1047 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott's been a really, really really good quarterback in 1048 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 2: the NFL. He's had a really good year, all right, 1049 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 2: another really good year, and he's been paid accordingly. He 1050 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 2: deserves every cent he gets. I like Dak Prescott. I 1051 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 2: think I think a lot of teams in the NFL 1052 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,239 Speaker 2: would be better with Dak Prescott as their quarterback. But 1053 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 2: he's the quarterback of the Cowboys, is what it is. 1054 00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 2: But Dak Prescott, with the Cowboys being eliminated, will be playing, 1055 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 2: all right, So I know there's a lot of people wondering, like, hey, Daki, 1056 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 2: are are you gonna play? I mean, like, like, how's 1057 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 2: this going to go? Is Dak Prescott going to going 1058 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 2: to partake in the final games of a Cowboys season 1059 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 2: that results in them not going to the postseason? 1060 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 4: Like? 1061 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 2: Is he going to play the New York Giants? Like 1062 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 2: is he going to be a part Like? Is he 1063 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 2: going to finish out the season on the field. Let's 1064 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:41,560 Speaker 2: listen to Dak. 1065 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 9: I'll have some fight back. Again, it depends on how 1066 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 9: it comes. What's the purpose, what's the reason? Obviously I 1067 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 9: understand being approached about it, but what I was telling, 1068 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,279 Speaker 9: you know, Clars and the rest of the group was 1069 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,400 Speaker 9: the conversations we've already had about or for me to play, 1070 00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 9: and you know, with the season being where it is, 1071 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 9: trying to make sure we finished, say what eight eight 1072 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,439 Speaker 9: and one, that's important, that's important to me, very proud, 1073 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 9: a lot of pride in that, and so I want 1074 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 9: to go out there and I want to win most importantly, 1075 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:10,239 Speaker 9: and me starting, I feel like it gives us the 1076 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 9: best chance obviously, and I want to play. 1077 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 2: Why would he not play? Like I'm trying to like that, 1078 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 2: This is the part that I that I really don't understand, 1079 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 2: Like what are you saving him for the playoffs? Like 1080 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,959 Speaker 2: why wouldn't he Well, the game doesn't mean anything, Okay, 1081 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 2: not every game is the super Bowl, and yeah, not 1082 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 2: every not every game means that the playoffs are on 1083 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 2: the line. But why wouldn't he play? And it's why 1084 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 2: I've made this point before, like I don't know if 1085 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 2: people are just so conditioned to guys not playing, because 1086 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 2: maybe NBA and the load management and all that stuff 1087 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 2: sort of like you know, through a wrench into everybody's 1088 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 2: thought on what you should do. That's part of your job. 1089 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 2: But why wouldn't he play? Of course he wants to. 1090 00:57:58,360 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 2: Of course, of course he's gonna play. Why do you 1091 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 2: think that's Crosby's pissed off because the Raiders are shutting 1092 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 2: him down, they're sending him out, so he's like, I'm 1093 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 2: out of here, Like I want to play, Like I 1094 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,600 Speaker 2: want to play, Like we don't have eighty two of 1095 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 2: these a year. We don't have one hundred and sixty 1096 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 2: two of these a year. We don't know we've got 1097 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 2: eighteen of these a year, or seventeen rather eighteen weeks. 1098 00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 2: We don't get that many opportunities to do this. I'm healthy, 1099 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 2: I want to play, but it's like this like, oh hey, 1100 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 2: dat's gonna play in week eighty Cool. That would be 1101 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 2: like me coming over to my wife one time being like, hey, 1102 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 2: guess what, honey, what's that didn't cheat today? Well? I 1103 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 2: would hope not. That's kind of your job, that's kind 1104 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 2: of your that's what you're expected to do. Like like, 1105 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 2: why wouldn't he play? Like this idea that like like 1106 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 2: players should be celebrate. Oh you know they're going out 1107 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 2: there and they're playing in week eighteen with nothing to 1108 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 2: play for. Philip Rivers said it best he's like, look, man, 1109 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 2: any like if there's an opportunity to play, like to 1110 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 2: be able to do this, Like I'm so excited to 1111 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:09,480 Speaker 2: be able to do this, to be able to get this. 1112 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 2: Like he's got the right perspective. He was gone for 1113 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 2: five years, whether or not he came back because he 1114 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 2: wanted to extend the you know, health insurance to his 1115 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 2: family and is eleven hundred kids, whatever it is, that's fine, 1116 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 2: whatever his motivation are. But like he said, he's like, man, 1117 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 2: this is like, what an opportunity we get to play, 1118 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 2: because ultimately there's going to be a time where it's 1119 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:30,920 Speaker 2: not there anymore, and you're gonna look around going damn. 1120 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 2: I'd give anything to be able to go out there 1121 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:35,080 Speaker 2: one last time or to be able to be out 1122 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 2: there one last time. So Dak Prescott saying, yeah, I mean, look, 1123 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 2: I want to play, like I'm gonna yes, And I 1124 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 2: would say, like a lot of players probably do want 1125 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 2: to play, a lot of players probably do want to 1126 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 2: be out there. A lot of players, even though there's 1127 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 2: nothing to quote unquote play for, want to be a 1128 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,439 Speaker 2: part of the action and want to be out there 1129 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:57,120 Speaker 2: and still try and play. And some players are playing 1130 00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 2: for incentives some play. But then you we got other 1131 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 2: players that are playing and auditioning for jobs next year 1132 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 2: or jobs with that current team or some other team. 1133 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 2: So this idea that we should celebrate, you know, Dak 1134 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 2: Prescott and like what he said, it's like what are 1135 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,920 Speaker 2: we I mean, what are we talking about here?

All 1200 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:47,640 Speaker 2: right now speaking to somebody who wanted to fire away 1201 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,920 Speaker 2: and be a part of the story. Let's listen to 1202 01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:54,400 Speaker 2: Ryan Kennedy. Are you familiar with who Ryan Kennedy is? 1203 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 2: He was the clown. Yeah, he was the clown in 1204 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 2: the blue hair at the Lion Steelers game. Heard who 1205 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 2: was yelling some stuff at DK Metcalf. DK Metcalf went over, 1206 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 2: grabbed his shirt. Apparently it looked like he tried to 1207 01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 2: throw a punch. But you know, he missed in close range, 1208 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 2: which I think is the most egregious offense of all this. 1209 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:17,480 Speaker 2: That's part of the reason why I think he should 1210 01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 2: be suspended two games because he missed that close up. 1211 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if you were to connected, I mean, I 1212 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:25,040 Speaker 2: think you know we're good here, you know, just kind of, 1213 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:26,480 Speaker 2: you know, wash your hands of the whole thing, and 1214 01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 2: then we move on with our lives. But nonetheless, Ryan Kennedy, 1215 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 2: this is a Detroit Lions fan who wanted to be 1216 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,440 Speaker 2: involved in the action. He wanted to be part of 1217 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 2: the story. He wanted to be part of the game. 1218 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:38,560 Speaker 2: He got to be part of the game. But apparently 1219 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,720 Speaker 2: he has not liked some of the accusations being made 1220 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 2: about what he did or didn't say. To DK Metcalf, 1221 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:48,080 Speaker 2: let's tick. 1222 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:51,520 Speaker 8: A listen, it is really hard to get me upset. 1223 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 8: But there's two things animal abuse racism. Like I get 1224 01:04:57,920 --> 01:04:59,840 Speaker 8: hot right away, Like I could feel at my face 1225 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 8: it's all warm. So I guess I want to be 1226 01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 8: crystal clear about one thing. I didn't use any racial slurs, 1227 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 8: no hate speech. I mean, none of that stuffed at 1228 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 8: the game. Never fifteen year season ticket holder for the Lions. 1229 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,080 Speaker 8: I've never done that at all. So to Kaelin, if 1230 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 8: you're watching this, man, if you could just say that, please, Like, 1231 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 8: my family's getting threats. 1232 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:24,160 Speaker 2: And stuff and it's not cool. 1233 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,640 Speaker 8: So whether you said that or not, I'm sure you 1234 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 8: didn't want that to happen to the family. Even if 1235 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,760 Speaker 8: you did, Like I forgive you man, that's all I got. 1236 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 8: Go lions. 1237 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 2: What a tool? Wait a second. So you want to 1238 01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:43,800 Speaker 2: be a part of the story. You want to be 1239 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,080 Speaker 2: in on the action. You want to be a part 1240 01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 2: like you want to be in like you got You 1241 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,200 Speaker 2: need your fame, you want you want to be on camera. 1242 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 2: You want to get a player's attention. All right, you're 1243 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,480 Speaker 2: you're wearing blue hair, just randomly blue hair, just a 1244 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 2: bitny color. You just want to pick like a bright 1245 01:05:58,200 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 2: blue wig. You want to be a part of the action, 1246 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,720 Speaker 2: and you want to celebrate. And then all of a sudden, 1247 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:06,120 Speaker 2: some stuff starts to come out that may or may 1248 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 2: not impact your family. And now, no, no, no, we 1249 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 2: got to slow things down, everybody, we gotta stop. No, 1250 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 2: this is what happens. This is part of it. It's 1251 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 2: like people who road rage and then get beat up 1252 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:23,240 Speaker 2: in a stoplight, Like this is what happens. Like you 1253 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,600 Speaker 2: want to get somewhere fast, you want to cut somebody off, 1254 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,120 Speaker 2: you want to throw up a finger, you want to 1255 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 2: yell out some stuff, and all of a sudden you 1256 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 2: get to a stoplight. Next thing you know, you get 1257 01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 2: slapped up, put to sleep and get embarrassed on social media, 1258 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 2: and it's like, well what was that about. Listen. Well know, 1259 01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:39,520 Speaker 2: maybe you didn't deserve to be hitting the face, Maybe 1260 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 2: you didn't deserve to be slapped and beat up in 1261 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 2: a stop light. Maybe that was a bit much, But 1262 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 2: you know what, you kind of led to it. You 1263 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 2: kind of led to this. This is part of it. 1264 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:53,760 Speaker 2: Like he wanted to be a part of the story. 1265 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 2: He wanted to be part like he had that like 1266 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:58,400 Speaker 2: all the attention needed, all of that stuff. There was 1267 01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 2: all these videos and look, do I think he said 1268 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:06,160 Speaker 2: anything racial to DK Metcalf? Probably not. No, there was 1269 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 2: enough people around. There was enough people there, either in 1270 01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 2: the stands or security guard. If he would have said 1271 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,680 Speaker 2: something like that, they would have heard it. Somebody would 1272 01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 2: have made a scene about it, and it would have 1273 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 2: become more public. There's been videos released of it, whatnot. 1274 01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 2: But this is what happens when you put yourself in 1275 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 2: bad situations. Even if you didn't do something, you're in 1276 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 2: this situation. You're to be held accountable. What do they 1277 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:36,000 Speaker 2: always tell you? Nothing good happens after two am. It's like, 1278 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 2: even if you're not meaning to do anything, or even 1279 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 2: if you didn't do anything, you can't you find yourself 1280 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 2: in a circumstance that is awful, and you're having to 1281 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,360 Speaker 2: speak on it. It's like, well, I didn't do anything, 1282 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 2: Well you kind of did. You put yourself on that spot. 1283 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,600 Speaker 2: And when you take the control away from you and 1284 01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:53,400 Speaker 2: put it in somebody else's hands, that's how this goes. 1285 01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,600 Speaker 2: So this idea, they're like, well, you know, I mean, 1286 01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:01,760 Speaker 2: you know it's affecting my family were getting threats for Okay, 1287 01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 2: So all of that is known as a possibility if 1288 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 2: you want to be involved in the story, Like, if 1289 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 2: you want to be involved in the story, if you 1290 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 2: want to be in the arena, so to speak, this 1291 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 2: is the stuff that comes along with it, Like my 1292 01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:22,360 Speaker 2: family's getting harassed. You were harassing a player. Yeah, but 1293 01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 2: I wasn't using racial slurs. Okay, So maybe there's people 1294 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 2: not using racial slurs against your family, But why did 1295 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 2: you even involve them? And you involved them because you 1296 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:33,479 Speaker 2: involved yourself. You wanted to be a part of the story. 1297 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 2: So this whole and it's not to say that DK Metcalf, 1298 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 2: you know, handled it the right way. Look, he probably 1299 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:41,519 Speaker 2: get handled it better. I think we all acknowledge that 1300 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,640 Speaker 2: probably didn't need to go over probably didn't need to 1301 01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:47,439 Speaker 2: go over there and you know, rough up the guy 1302 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,639 Speaker 2: and do everything that he did. And now he's suspended 1303 01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 2: for two games, and they could avoid forty five million 1304 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,759 Speaker 2: dollars of his contract if they wanted to, and all like, Listen, 1305 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 2: DK Metcalf of anybody knows, I made a mistake, didn't 1306 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,000 Speaker 2: handle that the right way. It could end up costs 1307 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 2: to me over forty million dollars. That sucks, that's bad. 1308 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 2: He's also suspended for two games to close out the year, 1309 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 2: and he's kind of an important piece of the offense, 1310 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 2: So we get it. Listen, what he did, totally understood, 1311 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 2: got it, made a mistake, did not handle it the 1312 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:21,519 Speaker 2: right way. But this goof coming out afterwards getting choked 1313 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 2: up talking about how important his family was. Dude, do 1314 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:29,519 Speaker 2: you not realize that you're representing your family every step 1315 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,799 Speaker 2: of the way, including when you wear a blue wig 1316 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:37,879 Speaker 2: and start yelling at players while sitting from the stands. 1317 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 2: I personally don't get it. I can understand, like a teenager, 1318 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 2: somebody like that yelling at a player or whatever because 1319 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:44,800 Speaker 2: they don't know any better. 1320 01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 4: I did. 1321 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:48,040 Speaker 2: I was a teenager. I did dumb stuff. I remember, 1322 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 2: you know, people coming out of a movie theater when 1323 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,200 Speaker 2: I was like sixteen years old and throwing water balloons 1324 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,760 Speaker 2: at him from the parking structure. Not great, but I 1325 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,600 Speaker 2: did it. And then all those years later. You know, 1326 01:09:57,600 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 2: about a year ago, I'm driving down the road and 1327 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:02,360 Speaker 2: teenager egged my truck let him see them. They popped 1328 01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 2: up behind a street sign. By the time I turned around, 1329 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 2: they're already gone. But you know what I thought, I 1330 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 2: can't get upset because I acted like a tool too, 1331 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 2: and this guy acted like a tool. So you can't 1332 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:15,160 Speaker 2: come back afterwards and then bitch and moan and get 1333 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:18,839 Speaker 2: emotional and cry because people are involving your family. Dude, 1334 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,280 Speaker 2: you involve yourself. You involve your family. It didn't have 1335 01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,799 Speaker 2: to happen. You could have just sat there like everybody 1336 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 2: else and watched the game and be entertained by the 1337 01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:29,280 Speaker 2: people that are actually playing in it or actually on 1338 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,240 Speaker 2: the sidelines. But you wanted to involve yourself, So don't 1339 01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 2: come back afterwards with the law offices of bitch and 1340 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:38,879 Speaker 2: moan and complain about how your family's being treated afterwards. Stop. 1341 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,720 Speaker 2: You had your chance. You blew it. You made a 1342 01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 2: fool of yourself. You should probably steer clear of the 1343 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 2: stadium and stay out of the spotlight if you don't 1344 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 2: like the smoke that comes along with it.

Right now, though, it is time to 1381 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 2: get to the week seventeen edition of a little something 1382 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:47,120 Speaker 2: we do called this lock It, Let's lotch It Knox 1383 01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:50,719 Speaker 2: locks all right, So let's get back to last week first. 1384 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,120 Speaker 2: All right, we got to go back before we can 1385 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:57,840 Speaker 2: go forward. Another under underperforming week. I'm not happy about it. 1386 01:12:57,880 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you. This is back to 1387 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,759 Speaker 2: back losing weeks. Not what we want when we're trying 1388 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 2: to get to and stay above five hundred for the season, 1389 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:08,720 Speaker 2: which is really the goal. I just I don't want 1390 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 2: to finish five hundred. I don't want to finish below 1391 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:13,720 Speaker 2: five hundred. I'm looking to finish above five hundred. And 1392 01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 2: so last week we were fortunate. We had the Bears 1393 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,559 Speaker 2: minus one against the Packers. One of the great games 1394 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 2: and great finishes you will see anywhere in the NFL. 1395 01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 2: It went our way. We were feeling really good about things, 1396 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 2: A want to no start, very good, very good. For 1397 01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 2: some reason, I thought it was wise to take the 1398 01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:35,720 Speaker 2: New York Jets plus six and a half. I'm not 1399 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 2: exactly sure why I thought that was wise, because I 1400 01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:40,120 Speaker 2: looked at New Orleans and I thought, why would New 1401 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,560 Speaker 2: Orleans be favored by six and a half over anybody? 1402 01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:45,280 Speaker 2: New Orleans shouldn't be favored by six and a half 1403 01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 2: over a dead body. And for some reason, the dead 1404 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:50,559 Speaker 2: body at this point would probably be favored over the 1405 01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:54,120 Speaker 2: New York Jets. It is awful. The Jets are a circus. 1406 01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 2: I bet on that circus and I lost. And then 1407 01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 2: you know, I picked a bad week to defend and 1408 01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:02,760 Speaker 2: take the Denver Broncos minus three, a real bad week 1409 01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 2: because the Jacksonville Jaguars shut me the hell up. They 1410 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,719 Speaker 2: embarrass the Denver Broncos on the road. And so because 1411 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 2: of that a one and two week. That makes two 1412 01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:14,720 Speaker 2: weeks in a row we've gone one in two. That 1413 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:19,600 Speaker 2: brings our overall season record to twenty four twenty two 1414 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 2: and two. So if it feels like things are unraveling 1415 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:25,920 Speaker 2: at the worst possible time this year for Knox Locks, 1416 01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 2: you are one hundred percent correct that is the case. 1417 01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 2: But we've got two weeks to play within the regular season. 1418 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:34,839 Speaker 2: We've got this week and then we've got Week eighteen. 1419 01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 2: So without further ado, it's time Steelers in Browns. I'm 1420 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:44,160 Speaker 2: gonna take Pittsburgh. I will take the Pittsburgh Steelers here. Look, 1421 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 2: I know that Miles Garrett's looking to do break the record. 1422 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:48,680 Speaker 2: I get all that. And it's been hard betting on 1423 01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Steelers this year just because one week they 1424 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,400 Speaker 2: look the part, the next week they don't. You're not 1425 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 2: quite sure what you're gonna get from the offense from 1426 01:14:57,800 --> 01:14:59,599 Speaker 2: time to time. But if we actually take a step 1427 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:03,720 Speaker 2: back and Pittsburgh, following the back to back losses to 1428 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 2: the Bears and the Bills, the Steelers have won three straight, 1429 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:12,120 Speaker 2: including at Baltimore and at Detroit. They're going to Cleveland 1430 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:16,599 Speaker 2: the Browns. While the defense has played well, I'm not 1431 01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:18,919 Speaker 2: really sure what the hell the plan is on offense. 1432 01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:22,040 Speaker 2: I personally think Kevin Stefanski's looking around, going just get 1433 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:24,560 Speaker 2: me out of here, please fire me something like I 1434 01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,000 Speaker 2: gotta go. I gotta go somewhere where I could actually 1435 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 2: coach up and be a part of an organization that 1436 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:31,840 Speaker 2: knows what the hell they're doing. Deshaun Watson's on the 1437 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:35,400 Speaker 2: pup list. I think the Steelers, though, keep it rolling. 1438 01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 2: I think Pittsburgh minus three at Cleveland is the play. 1439 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna roll with the Steelers, Eagles and Bills. I'm 1440 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:47,240 Speaker 2: gonna take Buffalo in this spot. And this is one 1441 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 2: of those lines that I look at and I go, well, 1442 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 2: that's kind of interesting, like, like what are we saying 1443 01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 2: when we see that the Buffalo Bills are just a 1444 01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:58,439 Speaker 2: one point favorite hosting the Philadelphia Eagles because I know 1445 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 2: that Philadelphia has played better late, but I would also 1446 01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:03,479 Speaker 2: argue that the Bills have as well too. And again 1447 01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:07,360 Speaker 2: I say all that, I say all that with full 1448 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:10,599 Speaker 2: acknowledgment that while the Bills have one four straight, last 1449 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:13,840 Speaker 2: week against Cleveland was not great. It was not great. 1450 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:15,840 Speaker 2: I felt like a little bit of a letdown spot 1451 01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:18,719 Speaker 2: coming off the big divisional win against the New England 1452 01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,559 Speaker 2: Patriots the week before. But in this case, I'm gonna 1453 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 2: roll with the home team. I think the Bills are 1454 01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:25,679 Speaker 2: a real sleeper to make a run at this thing. 1455 01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:28,439 Speaker 2: I think this could be the year no Patrick Mahomes 1456 01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:30,760 Speaker 2: in the playoffs to worry about. I'm gonna take Buffalo 1457 01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:33,960 Speaker 2: minus a point at home. I'm not crazy about it, 1458 01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 2: but I'll take the Bills minus want Rams at Falcons. Alright, 1459 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,559 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the Rams here. Look, I don't like 1460 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 2: the fact that it's seven and a half. I don't 1461 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:47,559 Speaker 2: like that point spread. That feels like a lot of points. 1462 01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:49,600 Speaker 2: It feels like a lot of points to go on 1463 01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 2: the road. With all that, Like, I'm not crazy about it. 1464 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,519 Speaker 2: It's less an ideal, but I look at it like this. 1465 01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 2: The one thing the La Rams do is they seeming 1466 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 2: always bounced back from an inexplicable loss. Like when there's 1467 01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:08,080 Speaker 2: a loss that the Rams have, especially just this year, 1468 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,600 Speaker 2: they come back and they find a way to respond. 1469 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 2: They lost to the Eagles earlier this year, game they 1470 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:19,960 Speaker 2: should have won. Following week, beat the Indianapolis Colts. They 1471 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 2: lost to the Niners on a short week at home 1472 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:26,679 Speaker 2: in overtime with the Niners completely riddled with injuries. Remember 1473 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 2: Mac Jones was out there going through full body cramps, 1474 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,880 Speaker 2: Guy had Riga mortis in the third quarter, and somehow 1475 01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:35,320 Speaker 2: won a game at SOFI. And what did the Rams do? 1476 01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:39,480 Speaker 2: The next week? Won at Baltimore. They lost to Carolina 1477 01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 2: on the road, inexplicably, came back annihilated Arizona afterwards. I 1478 01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:48,400 Speaker 2: think it plays out just like that. And furthermore, you're 1479 01:17:48,439 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 2: basically getting a week and a half off because they 1480 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 2: played on Thursday, and then they come back all the 1481 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 2: way eleven days later. This late in the season, it 1482 01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:00,680 Speaker 2: almost feels like a bye week for the Ram So 1483 01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,679 Speaker 2: they were exposed. They lost a heartbreaker on the road 1484 01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:06,120 Speaker 2: to Seattle. Now they go on the road again to 1485 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:08,760 Speaker 2: play the Atlanta Falcons, who have got nothing to play for. 1486 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:11,639 Speaker 2: I think this plays into the advantage of the La Rams. 1487 01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:13,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the Rams. I'm not crazy about the 1488 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 2: points on Monday Night. I don't like the fact that 1489 01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:17,800 Speaker 2: it's seven and a half points on the road. Something 1490 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:19,719 Speaker 2: tells you that half points gonna come back to bite 1491 01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:22,120 Speaker 2: me in the ass. But nonetheless, I like the bounce 1492 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,560 Speaker 2: back spot for the La Rams. Here give me the 1493 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,600 Speaker 2: Rams Monday Night at the Falcons minus seven and a 1494 01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 2: half and that is your Week seventeen edition of Knox Knocks. 1495 01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 2: Now here's what we're hoping for, Okay, because if you're 1496 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:42,719 Speaker 2: keeping score, we're sitting at two games above five hundred. 1497 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 2: All we need is like a two to one week. 1498 01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:47,680 Speaker 2: If we could go three and ohero, I mean, I'll 1499 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 2: basically just mail it in next week because Week eighteen, 1500 01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:52,400 Speaker 2: who the hell knows who's gonna play. There's gonna be teams, 1501 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, tanking teams that are you know, saving up 1502 01:18:54,800 --> 01:18:57,640 Speaker 2: for the playoffs. Like, there's all sorts of stuff that 1503 01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 2: could happen. This is a critical week Forox Locks. So 1504 01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:05,720 Speaker 2: we can somehow, some way go three and Ohero or 1505 01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 2: potentially two and one. It's gonna set ourselves up for 1506 01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:10,040 Speaker 2: a real spot next week. And if we go zero 1507 01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 2: and three and we're a game below five hundred going 1508 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:16,320 Speaker 2: into next week, it's just ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. But there 1509 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 2: it is, your week seventeen edition of Knox Locks Again. 1510 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 2: You can follow along on x at the Jonas Knox. 1511 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,000 Speaker 2: You can also follow along on Instagram at Jonas Knox Show. 1512 01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:29,000 Speaker 2: This is the final show of twenty twenty five. It's 1513 01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:32,360 Speaker 2: been a fun one. It's always a blast. Love doing this. 1514 01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:34,439 Speaker 2: We're gonna be back next year to kick off twenty 1515 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:37,400 Speaker 2: twenty six here on The Jonas Knock Show. And for 1516 01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 2: Chris Purfett, for Bo Benson, Isaac Lohan Crown, who apparently 1517 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 2: is too good to hang out with us here throughout 1518 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:45,200 Speaker 2: the entirety of the show. He just pops in at 1519 01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:46,519 Speaker 2: the top of the hour and then told me to 1520 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:48,200 Speaker 2: go kiss his ass for the remainder of the hour. 1521 01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:50,200 Speaker 2: It's kind of insulting, it's kind of rude. I can't 1522 01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:52,000 Speaker 2: believe that he would do that during a holiday week, 1523 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:53,719 Speaker 2: but maybe he is one of those guys that's running 1524 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,120 Speaker 2: burner accounts on social media. But nonetheless, it's been a 1525 01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 2: fun year, we roll on. Next year, it's a Jonas 1526 01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:04,439 Speaker 2: NOx Show right here on Fox Sports Radio. Shonas son 1527 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:05,120 Speaker 2: of a Bitch,
