10
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 2: we have had a rousing start to the twenty twenty

11
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: four campaign. It's all began Thursday night, a record and

12
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 2: this is just amazing, man Chiefs and Ravens. A record

13
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: of twenty eight point nine million people watch the opening

14
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: kickoff which was fantastic, incredible everything and the toe. It

15
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: was just an amazing start. And last night we had

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: Game number two Friday Night, a little bit of a

17
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 2: different vibe from Brazil, but interesting game, a little sloppier

18
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: than I think than Thursday night, but we saw the

19
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 2: stars on display. Sa Quon Barkley, Oh man, I just

20
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: I feel your pain, Giants fans, I feel your pain.

21
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 2: Saquon three touchdowns last night Eagles over the Packers, and

22
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: we hold our breath for Jordan Love to make sure

23
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 2: he's okay. He did walk at the end with some help,

24
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: and you saw him hobble off to the sidelines and

25
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: he was walking back in the locker room. He did

26
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 2: not speak with reporters last night. The Packers did not

27
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: have any idea what was wrong with its status is

28
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: so we'll find out about that. A big day at

29
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: college football. And my main man awaits for his Raiders

30
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 2: the autumn win is a pirate, and so is Jason Fits.

31
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 3: Good morning, FITZI.

32
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: You know, I was watching that game last night or

33
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: a few hours ago in our lives, and all I

34
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: kept thinking was how happy I am for you, and

35
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: how beautiful this offense is gonna be. Like it's funny,

36
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: I was. I was doing a show for Yahoo a

37
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: couple of days ago, and I said that I thought,

38
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: I think and I do believe the Ravens have the

39
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: chance to be one of the toughest offenses to stop

40
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And I laid out my case for why.

41
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: My co host said, so, you must feel the same

42
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: way about the Eagles offense, because you can make the

43
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: argument across the board, and I said, absolutely, like you,

44
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: what you saw last night was the power that the

45
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: Eagles can present in a lot of different ways. Jalen

46
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: Hurts a little sloppy early on. I think we can

47
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: all agree some of those throws were regrettable. There were

48
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: some moments early on, but I think we all have

49
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: to understand, especially going into tomorrow, that's gonna happen for

50
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: every team. Just the leg rep the limited, everything like

51
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: that is going to happen, and so the question is

52
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: can you survive that and make the most of it?

53
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: And my god, it just their ability to beat you

54
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: at every different layer and level of offense is just

55
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: going to be a problem for everybody all year long.

56
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: The fact that they were able to replicate the Brotherly

57
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: Shove with so much success, I think was wildly significant.

58
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: The fact that they survived that field with no injuries

59
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: was wildly significant. So I don't know, man, I just

60
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: I felt like it was a statement win for the

61
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: Eagles early on, and really just a key moment for

62
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: that team to say, hey, we are as good as

63
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: advertised and we are one of the best teams in

64
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: the NFC.

65
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was great. You know, you had

66
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 2: obviously Green Bay has an incredible power house.

67
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 3: I agree with you.

68
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: I think the quarterback play was spotty with both on

69
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: both teams. I thought Love and Hurts did not play

70
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: especially while not given that I think they're both of

71
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: their talents and to your point.

72
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: Barkley is absolutely frightening.

73
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, the the the offensive power that

74
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: the Eagles have, your spot on fifty, it's just scary

75
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 2: because Aj Brown is probably one of the most underrated

76
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: receivers in the league. He's got incredible size, speed, amazing hands.

77
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 3: It is a completely dominant player.

78
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: Like we hear you know, rightly so about some of

79
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 2: the speed guys in the league and everybody else, and

80
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: you know, Aj Brown just kind of is there.

81
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 3: DeVante Smith is a legit weapon.

82
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 2: And when you have a triangle of Brown, Smith and Barkley,

83
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: I mean it's I mean, that's just ridiculous, right, and

84
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: you also got a good tight end. I'm with you.

85
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 2: I did not like the way Hurts played last night.

86
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: I'm going to talk it up to not playing in

87
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: the preseason, and which is my beef with Sirianni and

88
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 2: has been my beef, Like you gotta play a little bit, man,

89
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: I mean, you have a new center, you have, you know,

90
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 2: a new interior part of your line.

91
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 3: You got. You gotta play.

92
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, no one's saying you gotta play

93
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: four quarters, but you gotta play a little bit. They

94
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: didn't play it down in the preseason and they only

95
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 2: had one joint practice and they looked incredibly rusty. It

96
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: was an incredibly sloppy game.

97
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: But hurts.

98
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: I did see some stuff that I saw last year

99
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: that I did not like. He was very careless with

100
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: the ball he had. He nearly got picked off three

101
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: other times, bad decisions.

102
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,559
Speaker 3: As great as he can be and he can be good,

103
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 3: but he's.

104
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 2: Gotta give me more subtle movements within the pocket and

105
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: not take off constantly. He's got really happy feedback there.

106
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,919
Speaker 2: That was a problem last year, and they're gonna blitz

107
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: them all seasons. People are gonna be in his face.

108
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: That's a Packers defense with a new DC, that's a

109
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: revamped defense. And with those skill people that you have,

110
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: you got to be going point, and you got to

111
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 2: be making decisions, and you got to be able to

112
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: see what you're looking at. You know, you chalking up

113
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 2: the first couple of games to that whole thing rossed

114
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 2: and everything else. But I did see some tendencies that

115
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: I saw last year that I didn't like. And if

116
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 2: you're gonna call out the protections, you got to make

117
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 2: sure you see it correctly. There was a couple of

118
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 2: times when guys were coming free off the edge and

119
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: it was complete miscall and protections.

120
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: There was also a fine line. I felt like the

121
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: broadcast praised a couple of those throws where somebody was

122
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: coming in free and say, well, they knew he was coming,

123
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: and there's just a little bit of you can't trust

124
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 1: your athleticism so much that you're not willing to make

125
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: the proper adjustments. I agree with that totally, and he

126
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: is definitely Both quarterbacks last night, I will say we're

127
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: not only a couple of times really reckless with the ball,

128
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: but they were late in a reckless decisions. Hate like

129
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: if you're throwing the ball, if you're throwing the ball

130
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: up for grabs, but you're doing it because you're just

131
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: heaving it late, that just doesn't feel good, you know,

132
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: So certainly some things I think to work on. But

133
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: if you're walking away from it and you see that

134
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: explosion from Saquon and I don't think. You know, it's

135
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,119
Speaker 1: funny because over the course of the last few years,

136
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: we all know how good Saquon is. I don't think

137
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: there was ever a question of that, Like health has

138
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: been a concern at times, But then the minute he

139
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: got away from the Giants, didn't we all sort of

140
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be something. This feels a lot

141
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: like Christian McCaffrey when he got away from the Panthers.

142
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: It's like, well, now he's around enough talent that it

143
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: can be exactly what we saw last night. And that's

144
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: just you know, I've been tough on Keller Moore on

145
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: this show, right, and I thought last night Keller Moore

146
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: had a really nice Saquon game plan dialed up and

147
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: that was just that was fun to watch. And if

148
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: you're a Giants fan, and we've we've talked a little about,

149
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: you know, what the hot seat looks like this year

150
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: in New York. If Saquon continues to do this week

151
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: in and week out and the Giant struggle, that's only

152
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: gonna make Giants fans scream more for heads to roll

153
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: in New York.

154
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I mean I can only imagine if I'm

155
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: a Giant fan I'm sick to my stomach because you

156
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 2: realize what you've had over you know, the you know

157
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 2: the past years that you just completely wasted without a quarterback.

158
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: I mean, you know othersten I can nitpick with with

159
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts all day long, but you know he's an

160
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: accomplished quarterback with amazing weapons. And you know that to

161
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 2: have the weapons around Saquon, like I talked to out

162
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 2: a James Brown and DeVante Smith, I mean, when you

163
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: have those guys, I mean, it's it just makes a

164
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: running back like you saw it. You can't load up

165
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: the box. It's impossible to do that. So he's going

166
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 2: to have space. If I were the Eagles, I would

167
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 2: ditch the RPO all day long and just freaking run

168
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 2: the ball like you don't need to be cute about it.

169
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 2: You got you know McKay becked in it right guard

170
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: and just run the freaking ball.

171
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 3: And you see.

172
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 2: How explosive he is through the between the tackles and

173
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: how he can just bust it. I mean, I'm with you.

174
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 2: I think he's going to have a monster you know,

175
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: not just with touchdowns. I think he I mean, he's

176
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: going to be going for a buck thirty a buck

177
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: sixty like he's scary. He saw him on the wheel

178
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 2: route and the touchdown. I mean, my god, And.

179
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: That was a really nice throw as hard as we've

180
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: been on her. So that was a nice throw the

181
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: right spot, Like, yes, it was yeah.

182
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, beautiful throw. Listen, he could throw it. He can

183
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 2: be accurate. He could, you know, one of the best players.

184
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 2: The best games I've ever seen the quarterback play was

185
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 2: was the Super Bowl against Kansas City, where I mean

186
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 2: he was every bit as good as my homes with

187
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: his throws.

188
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 3: I mean they were all on the money.

189
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 2: It's just the other nuance of playing the positions is

190
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: kind of where I'm at with that team around you, right,

191
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: Like we're grading at a super Bowl level, which is

192
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 2: not fair and week one, but when you had those

193
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 2: skill people around you, I mean, quarterbacks would kill for

194
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 2: what he has.

195
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: Well here two thousand percent, right, and let that heightens

196
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: the expectation. We talk all the time about, you know

197
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: the fact that there's this cesar te to totter and

198
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: the talent lifts the quarterback in the beginning, then the

199
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: quarterback lifts the talent. The Eagles have chosen not to

200
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: participate in that and then figured out a way the

201
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: rest of the league should be enviable about where you

202
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: can continue to put those types of weapons around him,

203
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 1: you know. So it is an all star sort of

204
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: opportunity to come in. But even it's funny as we're

205
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: talking the games on replay on the NFL network on

206
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: in my office right and I'm watching literally as we're

207
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: talking the it just makes no sense some of the play,

208
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: like Jalen Hurts doing the RPO thing makes no sense

209
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: with the rest of the offense being around and you

210
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: just mentioning that. But its just at some point he's

211
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: gonna have to trust his athleticism a little bit less

212
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have to be a little bit more

213
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: of a quarterback in this system in my mind, you know.

214
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: And that's and speaking of that, the other thing too

215
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: is I looked at coming into this game, I expected,

216
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: you know that. I've had my my opinions on Jordan Love.

217
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 1: I thought, Jordan Love, I think he's gonna take a

218
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: little step back this year. It's not I don't It's

219
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: not that I don't trust the talent. I just think

220
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: he got hot last year on a good run. I

221
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: don't know what that's gonna look like for the majority

222
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: of this game. In fact, the numbers, I mean seventeen

223
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,719
Speaker 1: to thirty four for two sixty, the numbers do lie

224
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: because there were a couple of really nice big passes

225
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: in there that inflated those. I thought Jordan Love looked

226
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 1: a little lost through some of this game wasn't particularly

227
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: Jordan Love of last year.

228
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 3: So I spied on let's I was. I wanted to

229
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 3: dive into it.

230
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 2: You were You've been saying that in uh and you've

231
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: been spot on, you wall, you were spot on last

232
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: night he uh Ayden Reid had the that one big

233
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: play and had a couple of others and you love

234
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: miss guys all light last night. I thought he was

235
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: terrible last night. To be honest with you, I thought

236
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: he missed guys a.

237
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: Lot of throws that were behind. To your point, yes,

238
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: guy's cutting across the field and it's like it's just

239
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: it was thrown to the wrong shoulder over and over

240
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: and over again. And I'm watching this thinking, man, this

241
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: is the young crew that we've been touting all off

242
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: season that you're growing and developing with that you should be.

243
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: You should at this point have chemistry like we can

244
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: only talk about the youth of this team for so long.

245
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: They've been together for a minute, right, So I was

246
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: a little surprised to see that some of those throws

247
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: were just they were late and behind. And that's just

248
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: not that's not good.

249
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 2: No, And again, you know, I don't want to freak out,

250
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 2: you know, for him and Jalen in the sense that

251
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 2: it's Brazil, right like, so you got to take that

252
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: into account. It the filled with slippery the uh, it's

253
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: the opening night when you not playing a ton in

254
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: the preseason.

255
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 3: The only the only bad part of last night was

256
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,479
Speaker 3: the freaking flags.

257
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: Oh my god, one after another after another. I mean

258
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: it feels like we do this every year where we

259
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: complained about the laundry on the field, but it was

260
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 2: it was just egregious last night. And and I guess

261
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: I'll just talk it up to like we're talking about

262
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 2: but you know, with week one, and I guess that's

263
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: what it's gonna be like. But you're right, man, like

264
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: Jordan Love you dude, you got to talk about weapons.

265
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 3: Is he lacking anything?

266
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: And where was Luke Musgrave? Where I didn't see Luke

267
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 2: Musgrave anywhere? I mean I saw craft on a couple

268
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: of breakdowns, especially the one crosser. But I didn't see Musgrave.

269
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 2: You know, Dobbs was pretty quiet. I saw I saw

270
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 2: guys running free too.

271
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's the biggest part of it, you know

272
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,599
Speaker 1: what you just said. It's not that the coverage was

273
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: so sticky. Nobody was there, Like, there were guys out

274
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: there and he just didn't find him. And when he

275
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 1: did find try to find some guys. There were a

276
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: couple of drops, but they were also you know, be

277
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: credited to his drops, but they're also bad, you know,

278
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: bad throws. And I'm most surprised by that. I was

279
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: a little surprised that there wasn't more effective running from

280
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs. I thought the Eagles did a really nice

281
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: job for the most part of bottling Josh up. Like

282
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: I thought, big things, explosive things from a running back

283
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: that I think can handle a lot, and you know,

284
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: he had one big run and the rest of the

285
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: time was really pretty much under control. So it's, uh,

286
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: the offense itself looked a little out of whack for

287
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: Green Bay, and Jordan is a part of that. I mean,

288
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: if he's if he's missing those throws, then it just

289
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: changes everything. So yeah, he was as got a lot

290
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: to work on.

291
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he it's.

292
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 2: A couple of third outs that were that were bad.

293
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 2: Like I'll be honestly, I was. I thought he was

294
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: wildly inaccurate. I mean, he had guys open that he

295
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 2: just flat out missed. I will say this that Kenyan

296
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: Mitchell is the truth. The cornerback. He's a rookie cornerback

297
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: who from Toledo who I think is really really good

298
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 2: and uh zach Bahn fifteen tackles. That's the way to

299
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: clean up in the middle of that field.

300
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

301
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: And by the way, Mitchell, they went at Mitchell early,

302
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: they went at Mitchell often. I felt like they and

303
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: he was there. Yeah that you watched that and thought, Okay,

304
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: all of that draft type was actually real, all of

305
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: that draft type was actually worth something. Nikobe Dean had

306
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: a couple of moments in that game that, even if

307
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: you didn't get credited with, he disrupted plays. I think

308
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: there were there were some really good prices.

309
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: Jalen Carter, Wow, Jalen Carter is going to be a

310
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 2: game wrecker.

311
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 4: Man.

312
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: He was in there. He was in there more than

313
00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 2: a few times. He's a nasty young star waiting to blossom.

314
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: He just he's good.

315
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 3: Jalen Carter is a beast.

316
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean we kind of I think we

317
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: had heightened expectations for Jalen last year because he was

318
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: so touty coming into his first year. I think you're right,

319
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: he even looks more like, you know, a man amongst

320
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: men at this point the year in the league feels

321
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: like it's just it's changed his body a little bit,

322
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: It's changed his conditioning a little bit. You're right. He

323
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: was disruptive and that's isn't that what we were waiting

324
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: for all your last year? Like we thought immediately him

325
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: coming into that defensive line that the year before it

326
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: had so many sacks and so much disruption, we really

327
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: thought that that was going to be, you know, epic,

328
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: and last year it had some moments. But you're right.

329
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: I sat there and watched last night and thought, yep,

330
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: this is something is clicked, and sometimes it takes a

331
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, for guys to have a click

332
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: like that.

333
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: He was really good like the first half of the year,

334
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 2: and then yeah, he hit that rookie wall and he

335
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 2: really kind of tailed off. But uh, like you saw

336
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,959
Speaker 2: last night and he's he's going to have he's going

337
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 2: to have a big year. I could I could see that. Listen.

338
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 2: We got so much to talk about today. This is

339
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,800

Speaker 3: It to have the NFL back.

342
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 2: I mean, my god, twenty eight point nine million people

Speaker 2: All right, Welcome back, fellas Jason Fitz Anthony Gargana from

378
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 2: thetiraq dot com studios.

379
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 3: So I'm just watching.

380
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 2: Somebody had a video of Jordan Love on the sidelines

381
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 2: after the injury, and man, he's hob one.

382
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 3: That does not look good.

383
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: I mean, this is and by the way, totally catastrophic

384
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: for the Packers if it's any meaningful time. They went

385
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,199
Speaker 1: out and get Malik Willis from the Titans, who was

386
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: I think a third round draft pick but never really

387
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: in serious contended to be anything for the Titans. It

388
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: feels like that was a miss. They took a flyer

389
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: on a quarterback in the third round and just tried

390
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: to see if they could develop something they couldn't. He

391
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: gets traded for a conditional seventh round pick, and it

392
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: looks like he is the backup. So if you're a

393
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: team right now that you know you're building on the future,

394
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 1: and you're also in the moment right now in one

395
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: of the toughest not the toughest division in football, you

396
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 1: can't afford to lose your quarterback for any amount of time.

397
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: So the hope is that whatever that is, you know,

398
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: long flight to have to go through too with whatever

399
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 1: that is, hopefully you know the test I'll come back

400
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: negative and he's going to be fine. It's nothing substantial,

401
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: but you're right, it did. The hobbling looked pretty bad,

402
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: Like I know, he walked off, but it didn't look right.

403
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: So let's see what it looks like.

404
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a h I just saw an Actually

405
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 2: there's him. He was like walking on the sidelines and

406
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 2: it looked nasty. Yeah, obviously the knee, it just looked

407
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 2: it just looked tough as he was trying to kind

408
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,479
Speaker 2: of hobble around.

409
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 3: So I'm with you.

410
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 2: Hopefully he's uh, he's all right, doesn't have to mis

411
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: serious time. I mean, you're spot on about Malik Willis.

412
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 2: I mean, he's no answer, that's for sure. I mean,

413
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 2: and you know, to have a season with all kinds

414
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 2: of hope, and you know you God forbid week one

415
00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 2: to lose your quarterback. It reminded it was horrible. It

416
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: reminded me of a play that I'm still scarred from.

417
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 3: And the year was nineteen ninety one, FITZI.

418
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 2: And I was a boy and a young Eagles fan,

419
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 2: Randall Conningham. There was there was a play at Green Bay,

420
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 2: lambeau Field guy named Bryce Pop got Randall Conningham and

421
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 2: broke his leg four passes into the season where the

422
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: Eagles had the greatest defense on the planet, Reggie White

423
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: and Jerome Brown, and the season ended catastrophically. They had

424
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 2: the best defense, but they finished with no quarterback and

425
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:50,239
Speaker 2: the season died four passes into it. So you know,

426
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: I wish that'll know one.

427
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's that moment where you lose all hope

428
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: when it starts to feel like that's your situation. And

429
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: you're right, I mean that's what Jet's fans felt last year,

430
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: right like, yeah, look at it and you say, how

431
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: could this possibly happen? So, you know, for Jordan particularly too,

432
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: you're just it's such a dynamic offense. It's built around

433
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: the slow and low approach that they've given to developing him, right,

434
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: so you know, there's supposed to be something special this year.

435
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 1: But also I want to continue to harp on the

436
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: fact that you're talking about a player that is still,

437
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: in football terms, kind of young, you know, like hasn't

438
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: played a ton of football. He needs these games, he

439
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: needs these reps, you know. So it all makes me

440
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 1: nervous for where the organization is going to go moving forward.

441
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: And again, hopefully we find out that this is just

442
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: a little thing that will bother him for a couple

443
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: of weeks. But we've also seen plenty of times where

444
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 1: even if it doesn't keep a quarterback out. Remember how

445
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: different Trevor Lawrence looked last year with the high ankle

446
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: Sprain for example, he played through it but didn't mean

447
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: that he was the Trevor Lawrence that were used to see.

448
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: And so you know, they got to hope that they

449
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: get the best version moving forward of Jordan Love somehow,

450
00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: some way at some point this season.

451
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 2: All right, so let's talk Thursday night and let's talk

452
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 2: three pete because it's entirely possible.

453
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 3: Man, it's entirely possible.

454
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 2: And you and I talked about this, this one weapon,

455
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 2: and I always talked about Andy Reid loving his toys.

456
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy, man, FITZI, he's scary with them. He's absolutely frightening.

457
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy could change, could change the whole course of

458
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 2: the Chiefs in the sense that they're as good as

459
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 2: ever on defense right with spags, and he makes things

460
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 2: work even though there's no sneed. He offensively to give

461
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 2: Andy that speed guy to go along with all those

462
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 2: other pieces to check go Kelsey. You know he'll get

463
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 2: Hollywood brown back at some point. That's frightening, dude. Xavier

464
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 2: Worthy is a frightening piece to the Chiefs.

465
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: I literally sat there watching the game and I said

466
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: out loud to no one. At one point they got

467
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: their Tyreek again. And you know I loved I loved

468
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: Xavier when he was drafted. I love Xavier on the show,

469
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 1: I love Xavier in my fantasy leagues. I got him

470
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: in all of them because it just felt like this

471
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: was inevitable. But I watched the beginning of it, and

472
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't even just him at the beginning of that

473
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: game when you saw his explosive speed and then Rashi

474
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: Rice just had an extra pop like yeah, it felt

475
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: like suddenly the turbo button was pressed. And all I

476
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: kept thinking is every NFL team is watching this and saying,

477
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: Holy you know what, how are we supposed to stop this?

478
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 1: Because if you go back and think to how hard

479
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: last year looked offensively and how everything felt like Mahomes

480
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: had to pull teeth. They went into this raven team.

481
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: I'll be a new defense, it's some coordinator, gonna be

482
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,880
Speaker 1: some adjustment. I'll buy all of that. But they went

483
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: in against a fairly talented defense and it looked really

484
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 1: easy for that offense to move the football, and that

485
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: in Week one, we just talked about having a little

486
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: bit of grace and forgiveness for offenses being a little

487
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: out of sync. When you think about what we saw

488
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: last night. Well, then think about what you saw Thursday

489
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,120
Speaker 1: night because the Chiefs. Yeah, no, I'm more confident now

490
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: than ever that the Chiefs are gonna repeat.

491
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 3: I know. I mean, Rice was ridiculous.

492
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: You know, Ravens are good, right, like the Ravens, Like,

493
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 2: that's still a good defense. I know the lot some people,

494
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 2: but that's still a good defense. They're frightening, man, They're

495
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 2: every bit scary that Chiefs team. My god, you know,

496
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 2: because they could have Checko just rolling and they could

497
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 2: just beat you at you know.

498
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 3: Kelsey was quiet.

499
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's funny, Becau. I feel like the summer

500
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: conversation was, well, no tight end at his age other

501
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: than I think one time at his age has ever

502
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: had a thousand yards receiving. So everybody's thinking, well, what's

503
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: gonna happen? And you looked at that and thought, exactly,

504
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: they don't really need a thousand yards from Travis Kelcey.

505
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 1: Like they can continue. They can do after one game.

506
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: They can do exactly what they did last year, which

507
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: is let Kelsey just sort of take it easy, be

508
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: a part of it, but don't wear yourself out. Save

509
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 1: it for the postseason, and then when they get to

510
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: the postseason. He can then put the turbo button on.

511
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: It's electric. When you think about how many different ways

512
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: that this Chiefs team is going to be able to

513
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: beat you offensively this year. And I watch that, I think, Plus,

514
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: you've got Mahomes working with such effortlessness when it comes

515
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: to his ability to get the timing down, like Worthy

516
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: is the fastest player we've ever seen in the combine

517
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 1: and he never had to wait on a football Like

518
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: to me, that's just so incredible for a quarterback to

519
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: just be like, yep, got it. We hear all the time, Well,

520
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna take them some time to gel together, Chiefs.

521
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 1: Not if you're Mahomes takes you out a day and

522
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: then you're like, yep, got this hit him and stride

523
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: over and over and over again.

524
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 3: You're right.

525
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: Andy Reid is just so capable of cooking with whatever

526
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: he gets that it's it's really beautiful.

527
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 2: Well, the other aspect of it, thanks the other. The

528
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 2: other aspect of it is, uh Andy is a brilliant coach, right,

529
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: and he does not subscribe to Hey, I'm gonna turtle

530
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: up in the in the preseason, and so he played

531
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 2: those guys in a pre in the preseason. He practiced hard.

532
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: Their trading camp is hard, and so when they come

533
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 2: out to start the season, they're ready, like they looked

534
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 2: game ready, and Baltimore is the same way. Like you

535
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: saw the difference between two teams prepared to play the

536
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: regular season and two teams who weren't.

537
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're so right. And I think what's funny is

538
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: if you're listening to the broadcast, the number of times

539
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: Collins were kept saying, well, this this is Look at

540
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: the emotion of Lamar. He's so fired up. He's putting

541
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: everything into this game. Which I hate that concept because

542
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: it implies that, you know, Lamar doesn't bring it every game,

543
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: which when you're a two time MVP at his age,

544
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: is fairly stupid. I think it's bad analysis. That being said,

545
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 1: I will buy that the Ravens have spent the entire

546
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: offseason thinking about this game, came in with the thunder

547
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: of the Gods to this game, played with everything they

548
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 1: had for this game. They gave it all and they lost.

549
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: So like it's just it's I mean, yeah, yeah it is.

550
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: And it's just a reminder that there's like the Chiefs

551
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: and then there's not a gap. There's like a moat.

552
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: There's a whole like there's a whole continent between the

553
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: Chiefs and the rest of the NFL.

554
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 3: In my mind, dude, I'm still with you.

555
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 2: I look around and I go, all right, so who

556
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 2: else out there is as good as that?

557
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 5: Like?

558
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 3: Who else in the AFC? Look at the contenders? All right?

559
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 3: You got sense it and he will see.

560
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: We're gonna go look at them, and you know, you

561
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: got to believe that they're gonna be pretty good. You

562
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 2: look at well at the East I don't you know,

563
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 2: we Muffalo, We've been through one hundred times. Miami. We'll

564
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 2: see about the Jets if Rogers stays healthy. Uh, you know,

565
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 2: love the Browns defense, don't love the Browns quarterback.

566
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: There's nobody.

567
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 2: I mean the Texans are you know, you know, we'll

568
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: see because they have a lot of firepower that you know,

569
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 2: they could be the next best contender. I mean there's

570
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 2: a possibility, but many they are just wicked. Man, you

571
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 2: got the best quarterback in the game, and now you

572
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 2: give him that speed guy. Dude, nobody I have to

573
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 2: say this right because I've been around Andy since he started.

574
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: I was with him in nineteen ninety nine when he

575
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 2: started his head coaching career in Philadelphia, and that dude know,

576
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: as good as he is as a coach, he might

577
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: be a better talent evaluator. Nobody knows talent the way

578
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 2: he does. Nobody knows quarterbacks, mu said with that, but

579
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 2: nobody knows receivers. He's unbelievable at identifying receivers. Deshaal Jackson, right,

580
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 2: the speed guy who I did the little speed guy

581
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 2: that he identifies, It's unreal. Deshael Jackson, Tyreek Hill and

582
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy, Racey Rice, like, the guy knows the talent.

583
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 2: He knows offensive lineman. My god, his greatest gift might

584
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: be that.

585
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: And he knows he knows what he needs because a

586
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: lot of those players when they if they go to

587
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: a different system, they go to a team, they may

588
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: not have the same success. Tyreek Hill obviously an exception

589
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: to that rule. But he knows exactly what he's looking

590
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: for and exactly how to make the most of it.

591
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: And when you ask who can compete, I think what

592
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: we have to acknowledge is who else in the league

593
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: has not even the best let's just say top two.

594
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: Who else in the league has a top two quarterback

595
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: and a top two head coach and a top two

596
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: GM and a top two defensive coordinator. Because that's what

597
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have built, and there's no doubt about that,

598
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: Like there is some moment where we have to step

599
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: back and just acknowledge that a big part of why

600
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are great is that they've really got like

601
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: this mount Rushmore going right now. Andy Reid is him,

602
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: Spags is him, right, Mahomes is him? So where do

603
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: you catch that? How do you find a coach that

604
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: is going to be content in a place being an

605
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator for years even though he might be capable

606
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: of being a head coach. Again, where do you find

607
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: a head coach it's accomplished absolutely everything you could want

608
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: to accomplish, but is still going at the level he's

609
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: going and doing it with a level of joy that

610
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: creates a locker room people want to be a part of.

611
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: Where you're gonna find, you know, a quarterback that is Mahomes,

612
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: You're not where you're gonna find you know, a Kelsey

613
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: You're not, you know. So it's just you put all

614
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: of these things together and then you add the extra

615
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: seasoning of what worthy can be, what Rice can be,

616
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: and what Pacheco can be, and what Chris Jones obviously

617
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: was to that defensive line, like, this is not just

618
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: Brady and Belichick. I cannot stress that enough. This is

619
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: Brady and Belichick and more all in one. And that's

620
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: just you ain't gonna beat it like you might beat

621
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: it on any given Sunday because it's football and you

622
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: can get lucky. But if your game plan is to

623
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: sit down and say, how do we top all the chiefs,

624
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: we do it by building a better organization. We're gonna

625
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: build a better widget. Guess what you can't like They

626
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: are head and tails above everybody.

627
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 3: Else for a race. It's spot on.

628
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: And and you know, here's the thing about Belichick is

629
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:55,479
Speaker 2: that you got Andy right, who is just an offensive coach.

630
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 2: Obviously he matterage the game, but he's the offensive coach.

631
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 2: And you have Spags, who's the defensive coach, who is like,

632
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 2: so you have a whereas Belichick was one man, here's

633
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 2: a two headed monster and he doesn't even look at

634
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: the defense. You know, listen, you know how close I

635
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 2: had with Steve and my kids called Michael Spags right

636
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 2: like that dude, I've been saying for twenty years is

637
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 2: the most underrated football mind. I was telling owners, what

638
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 2: do you do when you got to hire this guy? Like, oh,

639
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 2: forget about Saint Louis. It was a disaster. What happened.

640
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 2: He walked into a job that was that was made

641
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: to foul, and yet this guy was on the street.

642
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 2: It was a disgrace. It would really disgrace the guy.

643
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 2: Nobody coaches defense the way that dude does.

644
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: Think about to the real quick the moment right before

645
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: or the moment of the game where Spags called a

646
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: timeout and on the broadcast, they were like, he can't

647
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: do that. Only the head coach can. Head coaches that

648
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: would have had a problem with their defensive coordinator running

649
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: down and calling a timeout, not Andy Reed. It just

650
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: speaks to the empowerment everybody has in that organization, empowerment

651
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: with that level of talent. Yeah, good luck trying to

652
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: beat that.

653
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 2: Amy's the beast, you know, listen, you know, I mean

654
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: it's bags. I was breaking the stones about it. We

655
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 2: were texting about it yesterday. I'm like, dude, what a

656
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 2: big red set? And he goes, I know I gave

657
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 2: you a lot of leeway, but geez, whatever, wait till

658
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: I retire. You know, it's funny. It was funny. All right,

659
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 2: we got this is so much fun man, we're talking.

660
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 2: We got stuff to talk about all day long, all

661
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 2: morning long. Where the fellas, that's right, talking football, football baby,

662
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 2: Jason Fitz, Anthony Gargano, Haggen, Fitzy Cous, Fox Sports Radio,

663
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 2: Welcome back, Fellas, Fitzien Cous from the.

664
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,919
Speaker 3: Tire rack dot Com studios.

665
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 2: You know what the best is that like the last

666
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 2: two nights just having the NFL and then now going

667
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 2: into a day of college. Oh my god, it's I

668
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 2: don't know what it is, but I think the I

669
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 2: think the fans, I think we love it even more.

670
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 2: Like I don't know what it is, but like they

671
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 2: broke records Thursday night by over a million people, over

672
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 2: a million viewers, and I sense it, like I sense

673
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 2: people just going, oh my god, thank God's football's back.

674
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 3: You sense that too, not just.

675
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: That and it And the funny part about that is

676
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: you could argue that usually a two time defending champion

677
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 1: that could go for three would be a reason why

678
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: people are bored, right, Like, yes, yes, and that's not

679
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,399
Speaker 1: all the case. I understand why people are freaking out

680
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 1: frankly about college football because this year is going to

681
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: be so different than anything I've seen, so like I

682
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 1: get that. What I'm a little surprised that everybody's flocking

683
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: to the NFL when maybe, like right now, it just

684
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: feels like it's a little more predictable. And then it's

685
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: been night. The NFL is never predictable. But if we're

686
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: today just making a guess, then you could say that,

687
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 1: all right, right now, the Chiefs look like they're set

688
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: to three peet. That's not usually the greatest thing for

689
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: a sport. But it's not holding anything back here.

690
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 3: It's so true. It's you're so spot on, man, so.

691
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: Cultural phenomenon right now. It's just I think it it's

692
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: more than the game. It's just the social experiment, social

693
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,280
Speaker 1: experience that the game has become, you know, like it's

694
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: it's it's it's bigger than all of that. And that's

695
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: that's the crazy part about it. Like there's a my

696
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: group text we're all blowing up on Thursday night. You know,

697
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: this just feels so right and oh my god, and

698
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: everybody's talking trash last night, and like it just feels

699
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 1: like it's bigger than this is an event it's a

700
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: social event even for people fantasy football gambling makes it

701
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: this way. But no matter where you are in the country,

702
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 1: no matter where your friends are in the country, you

703
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: come together for this social event that has become. Yeah,

704
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: you know the NFL is it?

705
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 3: That is it? I guess it is.

706
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 2: I don't want to think it's solely because of fantasy

707
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 2: football and gambling. But I watched that speaking of Peacock

708
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 2: because the game was on Peacock. They have that show

709
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 2: about ancient Rome, those about to die.

710
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 3: And they have the games, right, like the.

711
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 2: Games, not just the gladiator fights, but they have chariot races,

712
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 2: and they like they show the people.

713
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 3: Freaking like, oh it's the gauge and they're freaking out.

714
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 2: They're loving it, and you know, they have it like

715
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 2: it's brilliantly dumb because it follows like a betting.

716
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: Paller and.

717
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 2: It's it's a it's a good it's really well done.

718
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,320
Speaker 2: But I'm thinking, is this just modern day bread and circuses?

719
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 3: Yeah?

720
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: I mean to me, it is because it wasn't that

721
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 1: long ago, ten years, fifteen years ago. What are you

722
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: want to say? It wasn't that long ago that a

723
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 1: random game that you didn't care about like Titans Bears.

724
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: If you're not a Titans a Bears fan, you don't

725
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 1: have a reason to watch it. Right now, Titans Bears,

726
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: which I think is actually a sneaky interesting matchup on Sunday,

727
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: is something that people are gonna watch like, and people

728
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: are gonna talk about, and people are gonna be interested in.

729
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: And you know, we've become so consumed with not just

730
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: the gambling part, but I think the fantasy parts a

731
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: huge part of it, and it allows everybody to invest

732
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: in players in a different way than they used to.

733
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,760
Speaker 1: In the NFL. What's interesting is that we've talked about before.

734
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: In the NBA, they market the players and they don't

735
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: care about the teams. In the NFL, you have generational

736
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: fandom of teams and you also have rooting player interests.

737
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 1: So you managed to capture both somehow. You've captured the

738
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 1: individual the team because of the life legacy. You've captured

739
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 1: the individual because of the gambling and because of the fantasy.

740
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: And that means you're paying attention to every ounce, every game,

741
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: and that's that's just different. That's different than any other sport.

742
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I yeah, I hear you.

743
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's amazing, like I just you feel it,

744
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 2: like you sense it social media, just the local and

745
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 2: you're in every nook and crany of our country. It's

746
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,760
Speaker 2: something that's, oh my guy, it's like, thank god football

747
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 2: I don't have to worry about elections and the state

748
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 2: of his country. I could just watch and enjoy some football.

749
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 2: Like that's enjoyable.

750
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: God, you're so right. It just makes such a huge difference.

751
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 3: All right, let's do this.

752
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: Coming up, I want to switch to a little college football.

773
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 2: Colorado State they drill, you wears, it's a party. Arch

774
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 2: Manning gets in the game, he does a little flip, right,

775
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 2: little flip mahomes like touched down and the crowd's going

776
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 2: wild and it's a party as Colorado State is getting

777
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 2: playing the Turkey dinner in Texas. Now it's Michigan, and

778
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 2: you wonder what's Michigan going to be like. They struggled

779
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 2: a little bit against Friends. No they pull away, they

780
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 2: win thirty to ten, but you know it was thirteen

781
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:49,280
Speaker 2: to three after three quarters. You know, you wonder about

782
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 2: just how good they are. And you're gonna wonder about

783
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 2: you know what it's like. You know what's life like

784
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:03,760
Speaker 2: without Harball, well, losing McCarthy, losing all those guys.

785
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 3: So you're you come in now you've got to.

786
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:11,720
Speaker 2: Face a mighty Texas team that's looking at the flex

787
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 2: they're a seven point favorite. How about that at Michigan

788
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 2: a seven point favorite. Yeah.

789
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: But the thing of it is, and look, I try

790
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: not to overreact to week one in any sport, So

791
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: like one thing we're all gonna do is we're gonna

792
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: freak out week one the NFL and decide that teams

793
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: are terrible or teams are great based on one game.

794
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to do that. But you can't take

795
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: away the fact that Texas looks so effortless, Quinn viewers,

796
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,240
Speaker 1: looks so accurate, sharp with the ball, a good ball placement,

797
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: quick to get it out, like just just really a

798
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 1: great understanding of exactly what they're trying to accomplish. And

799
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: then you go back and you rewatch Michigan's win over

800
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 1: Fresno and you're right, like it was disjointed, is the

801
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:51,439
Speaker 1: best way I can say it. Like I walked away

802
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: from it without a real sense of what the identity

803
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 1: of Michigan football is right now. So for me, it's

804
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 1: hard not to see Texas just win it big. The

805
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 1: explosiveness of Texas offense was maybe the most impressive thing

806
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 1: we saw in Week one outside of maybe one of

807
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 1: the big wins. It to me, Texas looked so in

808
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: control from the outset. This is an opportunity to make

809
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 1: a very big statement win. This is an opportunity to

810
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: in a tough sec for particularly, it's an opportunity for

811
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 1: Texas to get that landmark Committee win that will help

812
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: them if they are fine for the at large bid. Like,

813
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: there's just a lot on the line for Texas in this.

814
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 1: I think they roll. I think Texas wins by double digits.

815
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: And that's in part because Texas looks that good and

816
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: in part because I just have no idea what Michigan's

817
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: actual identity looks like right now.

818
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 2: Well, you and I see it the same way, completely,

819
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,799
Speaker 2: the same way. Texas looks mighty. It just does. It

820
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 2: looks it looks mighty, and I and I'm with you,

821
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 2: like you know, you know, I know it's Colorado State,

822
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 2: but they executed flawlessly, and I you know, this Michigan

823
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 2: team is obviously we all knew what it was, what

824
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 2: it was going to be like after the National Championship

825
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 2: and losing its soul in Harball. We knew what it

826
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 2: was going to be like, and so you know, this

827
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 2: is kind of where it is. But it's funny. You know,

828
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 2: who would have thought right and they're at home and

829
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 2: they're a seven point dog, and you go, that's not enough.

830
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, my god. Like, but that's just such a crazy

831
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: statement to the new world of college football, right because

832
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 1: I think we just sometimes we forget this is the

833
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 1: first season we've seen with no Saban, no Harball, and

834
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 1: that means we're allowed to reset our expectations on what

835
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: some of these teams look like. There are coaches that

836
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 1: intrinsically every year get benefit of the doubt, and those

837
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: were two of them. I struggle to give that benefit

838
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: of the doubt to more, you know, like and even

839
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: to some level to debor like I think it's going

840
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,840
Speaker 1: to be interesting. They have to earn that right like

841
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 1: every other coach does. So it's okay to look at

842
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: it and say this is a new Michigan, But it's

843
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: also weird to think about the Big House being sort

844
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: of this spot now that Texas can go in and roll.

845
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,880
Speaker 1: I just said that that's not normal in any of

846
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: our minds. But this is where if you're Texas. You

847
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: go in, you execute to this the hype, and I

848
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: know we say Texas is back every year and we're

849
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 1: wrong about it. Like, I don't want to do that.

850
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 1: But man, as good as Arch looked in the second

851
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,399
Speaker 1: half when he came in for slop time, it only

852
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,399
Speaker 1: made it more impressive to me that Quinn viewers has

853
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: held off Arch through this whole point, whole process, which

854
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 1: speaks to how well Quinn has played. I just I

855
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: struggle to find a real weakness for Texas football right now.

856
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:39,240
Speaker 2: No, And I gotta tell you the viewers is uh.

857
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 2: I love that kid, man, I really do. Because we

858
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 2: all knew Arch and we all kept waiting for Arch

859
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 2: and they were looking for any excuse to supplant him.

860
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 2: And I love to see a humors party, right like,

861
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 2: make this just be one big you know, libration him

862
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 2: this year. I'm with you, I'm I'm rooting for him.

863
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:11,439
Speaker 2: And they're they're nasty, man, They're really really good, they

864
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 2: really are. You want to do a little exercise and

865
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 2: go through last week and what we learned.

866
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 3: So let's start.

867
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 2: Let's start in a game that we both loved and

868
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 2: it was Georgia Clemson and it was the route we expected.

869
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 2: It was you know, Carson Beck, and it was you know,

870
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 2: Georgia Rowland. All over all Clemson not being able. You

871
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 2: could see that they are just in a different class.

872
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 2: They're not in that elite class that George is in.

873
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,320
Speaker 1: The biggest proof of that is the very argument Clemson

874
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: fans make on while we're overreacting to the result, because

875
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 1: they'll all say it was close for the first half.

876
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 1: Bad teams are capable of keeping it close with good

877
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: teams for a half, but then the depth plays into it.

878
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 1: The inability to compete at that level for the entire

879
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,320
Speaker 1: sixty minutes plays into it. Like all of these things

880
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 1: are things we're used to seeing when we talk about

881
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: small school takes on big school or okay school takes

882
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 1: on good school. That's exactly what we saw on this.

883
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: Like Clemson was competitive for a half. Their defense played

884
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: really well. I will give them a lot of credit.

885
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 1: Notre Dame's defense. Sorry, George's defense looked absolutely great throughout

886
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 1: the course of this, But the fact that it just

887
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: got so ugly in the second half is just a

888
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 1: reminder that in a world where you choose not to

889
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 1: use the transfer portal and where nil isn't as big

890
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: a deal. You just don't have the depth to compete.

891
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 1: Georgia is elite, Clemson is everybody else. Clemson is a

892
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: mid level program at this point that's fighting for mid

893
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 1: level attention, that's going to be fighting for the occasional

894
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: wild guard spot in the playoffs. They are no longer

895
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 1: nationally prominent.

896
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,280
Speaker 3: Like I know it was six and off at halftime,

897
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 3: having watched that game.

898
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 2: Like you did, they didn't even look close to score

899
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 2: like there was no you saw quite.

900
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 3: Friend, I have a friend of.

901
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 2: Mine who dabbles in the the betting arts, and so

902
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 2: he was texting me about the game and what I thought,

903
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 2: and I was like, by the way, dude, if I

904
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,359
Speaker 2: were you, I jump all over Georgia live. I mean,

905
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 2: I don't. I can't see this game there. It's inevitable

906
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 2: that they're gonna pull away. And that's just the way

907
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,920
Speaker 2: it look like. First quarter they were sloppy, like you

908
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 2: could see the Georgia offense was sloppy, and then you

909
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:30,800
Speaker 2: could see them start to come alive.

910
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 3: And to me, it was it was I know it was.

911
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 2: Only six to nothing, and I know it was scoreless

912
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 2: after the first quarter, but it looked.

913
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 3: I saw that. You saw the disparity between those two teams.

914
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 1: No, I mean, and this is what we're gonna see

915
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 1: all year long. By the way, like Georgia is at

916
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: a spot now where at halftime they went in and said, okay, guys,

917
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 1: we should probably wake up. Let's let's go ahead and

918
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: take care of some business. And then they did exactly that.

919
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 1: And it's funny because I think one of the most

920
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 1: slept on things nationally, I won't say necessarily in the South,

921
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: but nationally in college football this year is the Georgia

922
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 1: is the number one team in the country. Like I

923
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: just I don't feel like we sit here every week

924
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: and say, man, Georgia, we're not talking about Georgia with

925
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 1: the same tone and tenternationally that we usually talk about

926
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: teams that are as dominant as they are. And this

927
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: is a wake up call to all of us, Like

928
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 1: Georgia just came out, they shmacked him around and just

929
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: reminded us all that they are better. And that is

930
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 1: going to be the case for the course of the year.

931
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 1: Georgia is going to be in the College Football Playoff.

932
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: At this point, you just look at it and say

933
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 1: they are a juggernaut that deserves all of the respect.

934
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's keep going down.

935
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 2: Penn State game that was delayed by lightning against West

936
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 2: Virginia alor three touchdowns.

937
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 3: He's got such a great arm.

938
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 2: Man, My god, Singleton gives one hundred and thirty four yards.

939
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:58,720
Speaker 3: They look good, man, Penn State. Listen.

940
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 2: I know you got Oregon, and I know you got

941
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 2: Ohio State, But man, that Penn State team's got a

942
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 2: chance for the playoffs. They have Bully Reid today, so

943
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 2: you have a layup today. Then they got Kent State, Illinois, Ucla.

944
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,320
Speaker 2: They don't have to play a real team until USC

945
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:24,640
Speaker 2: on October the twelfth. Then they're at Wisconsin home Ohio

946
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 2: State home Washington, at Purdue, at Minnesota, and then home Maryland.

947
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 2: So they got a favorable schedule.

948
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. They showed a reinvented version of what Penn State

949
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 1: football looks like. New offensive coordinator came over from Kansas.

950
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 1: Depth of target went through the roof in that game.

951
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:47,200
Speaker 1: Drew Aller pushing the ball down the field, but pushing

952
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 1: the ball down the field with accuracy. He has a

953
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 1: real chance to become a superstar in this offense. You

954
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 1: saw that, you saw some of his control in it

955
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 1: early on. And we also saw right out of the

956
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 1: gates of the ap pol is an absolute jokes abomination

957
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: because they were number eight going into this. They played

958
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 1: a true road game against an actually valued opponent in

959
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 1: West Virginia. It wasn't a cupcake they went out there.

960
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:13,399
Speaker 2: That was talking about upsets, like, you know, they were

961
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 2: flexing against Penn State.

962
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Penn State kicked a snot out of them

963
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 1: on a true road game with a new offense that

964
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 1: looked reinvented. And for that, they went up a total

965
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 1: of zero spots in the eight. People like, it's just

966
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 1: absolute garbage that we'd even do polls this early because

967
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,319
Speaker 1: nobody knows what the hell they're talking about. But I

968
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 1: thought the Penn State win was one of the most

969
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,400
Speaker 1: statement wins we saw over the weekend, mostly because it

970
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: wasn't because they won. It's because they dominated with the

971
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: level of offense we haven't seen from Penn State in

972
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: how long, Right, So you looked at it and said, okay, Like,

973
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 1: over the course of week one, the Big ten reminded

974
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: us that they are much deeper than we were giving

975
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:52,919
Speaker 1: them credit. For a lot of people because Penn State

976
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 1: looked great, USC looked great like those were not expected

977
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: developments for them to be that dominant in week one.

978
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,359
Speaker 1: Penn State app looks like a national championship contender after

979
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:02,799
Speaker 1: one game.

980
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 2: I agree, I agree, I like them. I like him.

981
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 2: Tennessee interesting game tonight. They're at North Carolina State. They

982
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 2: rolled over Chattanooga sixty ninety three. I'm gonna leave a

983
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 2: crow for three fourteen three touchdowns in the first half alone,

984
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,719
Speaker 2: and so you get a cupcake and your flex. But

985
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 2: I'm curious to see him tonight against NC State's prime time.

986
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:35,360
Speaker 2: I'm curious about what Tennessee looks like.

987
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:40,320
Speaker 1: Tennessee was my sneaky playoff pick for y'all who sports

988
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 1: for axample shows. I believe in a hypel I believe

989
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:49,239
Speaker 1: in their ability to create good offense. I think you

990
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: know I would say I want my best coaches to

991
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,360
Speaker 1: be like the show Chopped, where they open up the

992
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 1: basket and whatever they have to cook with. We've seen

993
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: Tennessee do that. We've seen that they can be explosive

994
00:52:58,000 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 1: down the field when they need to. We also have

995
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: seen they can calm things down to run the football

996
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,840
Speaker 1: when they need to. This version has a quarterback that

997
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: is absolutely going to be electric all year. This version

998
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 1: has a coach that I believe in this version I believe.

999
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it was everything we thought and more out

1000
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: of the gates for Tennessee. I think that was big.

1001
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: Tonight's a big statement opportunity for the Balls against stan

1002
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:23,399
Speaker 1: See State that I think is a little over hyped.

1003
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,120
Speaker 1: I think the Balls winning this game. I think they

1004
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: roll in this game. But I also think that every

1005
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,440
Speaker 1: single week more momentum is going to come. By the

1006
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 1: end of the year, Tennessee's going to be in the

1007
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,359
Speaker 1: college football playoff and everybody's going to be saying, Wow,

1008
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,319
Speaker 1: why don't we pay more attention to this early on?

1009
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,840
Speaker 1: Tonight's the opportunity for that. This team is, this team's talented.

1010
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 1: They're talented all over the place.

1011
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you.

1012
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 2: Will Howard looks like a perfect fit at Ohio State.

1013
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 2: The beauty of the transfer portal, the beauty of the

1014
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 2: way college football, the landscape is, go get a veteran quarterback,

1015
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 2: Will Howard, veteran quarterback comes in and I know it's

1016
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 2: Zachron and you get the cupcake and getting other one today,

1017
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 2: but geez, and that.

1018
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 3: They look they look pretty, they look pretty nasty.

1019
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,800
Speaker 2: That Jeremiah Smith is something, and they got weapons glore.

1020
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 2: It's amazing how they just keep replenishing.

1021
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's you know, you're right that it's cupcakes.

1022
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,439
Speaker 1: And I hate the cupcakes as much as everybody else does.

1023
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,719
Speaker 1: But good for Ohio State on giving themselves an opportunity

1024
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: to get Will Howard worked in right, Like, we can't

1025
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,439
Speaker 1: play both sides of the fence on this. I'm sitting

1026
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 1: here saying some of these teams in the NFLN college

1027
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,560
Speaker 1: football looked a little out of sync early on because

1028
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,319
Speaker 1: they don't have the preseason reps. Well, Ohio State takes

1029
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 1: care of that by essentially giving themselves preseason reps.

1030
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 3: Right.

1031
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 1: So in Ohio State, just like you know, just like Georgia,

1032
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 1: they started a little slow last week and then they

1033
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 1: woke up and it was all fine. And that's exactly

1034
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: what's going to happen for them. And look, the problem

1035
00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:56,879
Speaker 1: for Ohio State isn't going to be any of these games.

1036
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 1: The problem for Ohio State is that nothing short of

1037
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 1: a national champion ship will be considered success for this

1038
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: team and the amount of money that they've spent with

1039
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 1: the coach they have, so everything right now is nice.

1040
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 1: It's a cute little building block, it's a nice little story.

1041
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 1: But through all of it, they've got to win the

1042
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 1: Big Ten. They've got to be a prominent playoff team.

1043
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: I think people will be disappointed if they don't have

1044
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 1: a top four seed home game, and frankly, if they

1045
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,799
Speaker 1: don't win a national championship, this season will be seen

1046
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: as an abject disaster. Is that fair? No? But Fares

1047
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,239
Speaker 1: wear a pig gets a ribbon, So like that's just

1048
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:28,600
Speaker 1: the way this thing's going to work for them the

1049
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 1: rest of the year. Southernism's coming out.

1050
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,879
Speaker 2: For I know, I love it fars where pig gets

1051
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 2: a rivet, I love it, pigs get a ribbon, I

1052
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 2: love it.

1053
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:43,359
Speaker 3: Speaking of transfer.

1054
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:49,800
Speaker 2: Portal quarterbacks, how about that cam Ward three eighty five,

1055
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:56,840
Speaker 2: three touchdowns on a absolute sweltering day at the Swamp.

1056
00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,400
Speaker 2: He looks great against Florida Miami.

1057
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 3: And he just dominates that game. And cam Ward looked spectacular.

1058
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and the domination of that look for all

1059
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,760
Speaker 1: of the bad that we've talked about for the ACC

1060
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 1: from the first weekend, which I think is all fair

1061
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 1: criticisms of the ACC man Miami just absolutely coming out

1062
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:24,800
Speaker 1: and looking so dominant was a little surprising to me.

1063
00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say that I wondered when

1064
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 1: it all gelled together. It did quickly, I take nothing

1065
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:34,240
Speaker 1: away from that. Cam wardire right absolutely looks incredible, and

1066
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 1: by the way, I mean, Florida looks terrible. I just

1067
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: this is this is going to be an awful year

1068
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 1: for Florida football. I am struggling to find three wins

1069
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: for them at this point. So Florida has hit the

1070
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,839
Speaker 1: absolute bottom. And I don't even know that I blame

1071
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 1: Billy Napier. They just they don't have enough talent right now.

1072
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: That talent isn't Yeah, but that's that's on Napier to

1073
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: a certain extent. But my god, like I just right now,

1074
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: Florida schedule is so brutal. Just bag it up. This

1075
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: thing's done. This thing's over, This whole regime is over.

1076
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,319
Speaker 1: Florida is gonna be making change. The questions it's just

1077
00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 1: is it at the end of the season or is

1078
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:11,399
Speaker 1: it in the next couple of weeks.

1079
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:15,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, they just need a whole new makeover, a

1080
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 2: whole new entree into the new world, because they they're

1081
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:25,640
Speaker 2: definitely in the old world, that whole gated chop man.

1082
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 3: Wow, all right, we're gonna take quicktio.

1083
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 2: We'll come back and uh, there's another quarterback, not a transfer,

1084
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 2: but a freshman. And I'll tell you one man is thrilled.

1085
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 2: One man has been devoid of a quarterback for years,

1086
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 2: dating back to his time in the NFL. We'll talk

1087
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 2: about that. He's got a big game tonight, perhaps the

1088
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 2: biggest on the slate, the most interesting.

1089
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: At least we'll talk about it.

1123
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 2: let's talk about what's going to happen tonight. They're back

1124
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 2: in Lincoln, Nebraska. They're excited because they finally have a quarterback,

1125
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 2: Matt Ruhle after suffering in Carolina with sam Donold and

1126
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 2: bringing back Cam Newton and dying for a QB. Well,

1127
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 2: in last year at Nebraska, dying for a QB, they

1128
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 2: got one Dylan Rayola, who was their amazing recruit. Was

1129
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 2: just terrific. You just saw how good he can be.

1130
01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 2: In nineteen to twenty seven, two thirty eight, two touchdowns,

1131
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:43,120
Speaker 2: Nebraska rolls over UTEP. But it was funny. I was

1132
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 2: texting Matt and after the game and I'm like, dude, what.

1133
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,040
Speaker 3: About the kid. He's like, we got a quarterback.

1134
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 2: We got a quarterback, and so they got Colorado tonight Prime.

1135
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 2: This will be a great matchup, man, Rayola versus Shador, Like,

1136
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a lot of fun.

1137
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 1: Man, you say it's gonna be a great matchup. I

1138
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a slaughter. I think Nebraska is

1139
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna like, I mean, look, this is the real.

1140
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 3: Of it a monster movie.

1141
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah no, But like Shador and Travis Hunter are both

1142
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 1: really nice players, and this is set up in a

1143
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 1: way where ironically they're both gonna be guys that put

1144
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: up huge numbers and get a ton of Heisman conversation

1145
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: and a ton of draft conversation, and they're gonna have

1146
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:36,480
Speaker 1: to put up huge numbers because the rest of the

1147
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 1: team just isn't good. Like, they've got players on the

1148
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball, but they have absolutely no

1149
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: plan for those players, and their offensive line still looks

1150
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,040
Speaker 1: like a liability. So, you know, and I'm so tired.

1151
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 1: I'm just exhausted by the apologists that keep saying, well,

1152
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,480
Speaker 1: North Kota State's actually a really good program. Not if

1153
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 1: you're playing a real college football team, Like I'm sorry,

1154
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 1: North Kota State would not be putting up competitive games

1155
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 1: against Joe or Texas or any of these teams that

1156
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 1: are worth the amount of tention they get. Colorado is fine,

1157
01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 1: Colorado's They're fine. They're gonna win five or six games

1158
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 1: this year. They're okay. I just think that we overblow

1159
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 1: so much of this because it's Colorado and Nebraska. Nebraska

1160
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: looks like they're gonna be really good. I mean this

1161
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,919
Speaker 1: to me feels like I'd be stunned if Nebraska doesn't

1162
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 1: win by seventeen or.

1163
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 2: War Yeah, I dude, I mean, I mean, I think

1164
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 2: you know how I feel about the Huskers, and I

1165
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 2: mean I'm smelling the same thing I'm smelling this should

1166
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 2: get out of hand right, Like this should be one

1167
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:42,200
Speaker 2: of those games where you know they flex Rayol is legit.

1168
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 1: Dude is good good, he really is.

1169
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 2: There's a reason why man like Yo, Matt loved them.

1170
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 2: I mean, was was hot after them. And you know,

1171
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 2: look the the Nebraska Coalist and spent money for real

1172
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 2: money for them. And you know, I'll never forget Kyle McCord,

1173
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 2: who will talk about a little bit, was in town

1174
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 2: and he was in Lincoln for the weekend, and uh,

1175
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 2: you know they were looking that way. They wanted rail

1176
01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 2: all along because with that program, you know, you just

1177
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,920
Speaker 2: need to build it right like you need to and

1178
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:26,960
Speaker 2: having a guy with you know, come in for a

1179
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:31,400
Speaker 2: year like McCord doesn't really fit kind of what you're

1180
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:35,600
Speaker 2: trying to build, especially since they're scheduled so favorable a

1181
01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 2: lot of home games that you know, you want to

1182
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 2: make sure that this year you're building and you got

1183
01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 2: the kid, and the kid is is just he's good

1184
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 2: and he's he's gonna be a lot of fun to

1185
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,040
Speaker 2: watch him over the years.

1186
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and for him to come in and

1187
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 1: this is going to be modern quarterbacking, like we talk

1188
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,000
Speaker 1: all the time about in the NFL, there's not the

1189
01:03:57,040 --> 01:03:59,919
Speaker 1: grace that there used to be for Sidham and develop them.

1190
01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: In modern college football, that grace isn't going to be

1191
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:06,120
Speaker 1: there either. Like as you mentioned, the coalitions come together,

1192
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 1: they put good money into these positions, into these players,

1193
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:11,160
Speaker 1: and the expectation is that they're gonna more often than

1194
01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 1: not if they're called on. They need to be reliable, right,

1195
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,360
Speaker 1: So I thought it was impressive for Real able to

1196
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,520
Speaker 1: come out and throw the ball so well, it's the

1197
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 1: first time anybody, most of us have gotten to see

1198
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 1: anything from him, and you watched and he thought, yep,

1199
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:26,640
Speaker 1: this guy just has that factor out of the gates,

1200
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 1: you know. So this is a big moment for him. Obviously.

1201
01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:32,439
Speaker 1: I think it's a big moment to continue to prove

1202
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 1: some of that. But I just I have no concerns

1203
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 1: whatsoever on Nebraska being able to handle this moment.

1204
01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 2: By the way, Nebraska is his six and a half

1205
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 2: point favorite.

1206
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 3: I mean, really that it's funny the two of them.

1207
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:58,480
Speaker 2: I just don't even understand Texas Line and Nebraska. Like,

1208
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:01,560
Speaker 2: by the way, if you're one of the these parlay people,

1209
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 2: I mean, there are teaser people what you call Texas

1210
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 2: laying one and Nebrads can lay in a half.

1211
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:11,960
Speaker 3: I don't know how that loses.

1212
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like the lines have been cautious so far.

1213
01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 1: And you know, obviously we'll talk or later in the

1214
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:22,880
Speaker 1: show to Brad and we'll see what he thinks.

1215
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,520
Speaker 3: But Brad's actually the South of France.

1216
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: Oh, Brad's in the South of France.

1217
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:33,920
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, so Brad, Brad, but you and I talking

1218
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:34,760
Speaker 2: about picks.

1219
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brad, Brad's a little he's uh, he's like James Bond.

1220
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:42,000
Speaker 1: If I had the choice between hanging out with us

1221
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 1: in the morning, were hanging out in the South of France,

1222
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 1: I would take the South of France.

1223
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, I would not be offended when you go,

1224
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 2: because I love you. But I'm going to be in

1225
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:55,080
Speaker 2: the South of France's weekend and I go and join these.

1226
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 2: My brother send me a you know, a picture of

1227
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 2: you holding.

1228
01:05:59,920 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 3: Up at.

1229
01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 1: You know, I feel like that that would be a

1230
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:05,960
Speaker 1: speedo picture. That's all that would come in that picture

1231
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 1: is just me and a speedo. If I'm in the

1232
01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:09,440
Speaker 1: South of France, I'm rocking the speedo. That's the way

1233
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: it's going to go. Yes, it's just up on a

1234
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 1: yacht and a speedo feels like the right way for

1235
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:17,400
Speaker 1: me too. Yes, I don't know how I feel about

1236
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 1: any of that, No, but I do feel like the

1237
01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:22,320
Speaker 1: lines in college have been a little a little bit

1238
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: cautious in some of these games, and I think it's

1239
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: interesting because you got to sort of separate yourself from

1240
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,520
Speaker 1: what we think versus what we've actually seen and what

1241
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 1: we know. And Colorado's effort in that first game, there

1242
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,920
Speaker 1: were some moments, but even at the end, you know,

1243
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:40,920
Speaker 1: if you talk about the play calling, whether it came

1244
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,800
Speaker 1: from Dion or as he said later, it was being aggressive.

1245
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:45,959
Speaker 1: Throwing the ball late in the game almost.

1246
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 3: Cost My god, that was stupid.

1247
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: It's like, what do you what are you doing that?

1248
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 1: You're giving them that that opportunity and not for nothing.

1249
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:57,360
Speaker 1: I think if North South Zakota State had used there

1250
01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:01,120
Speaker 1: or Northcott they use their timeouts better, then they would

1251
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:02,760
Speaker 1: have been in the situation at the end where they

1252
01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:05,240
Speaker 1: could have won that game. So it all came down

1253
01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 1: to that against a team that shouldn't have even been

1254
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 1: in contention at that point. I just the Colorado thing

1255
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 1: is is just an ugly head this year.

1256
01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you're right, and I think it could

1257
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:24,280
Speaker 2: come to an ugly, end ugly head this tonight because

1258
01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 2: if they get smashed tonight, that'll be the end of that.

1259
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 2: If you go in the Lincoln and it's you're not competitive,

1260
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:35,360
Speaker 2: you could say goodbye to all the hype.

1261
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:42,320
Speaker 3: I don't care what right, Like, I know my man will.

1262
01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:45,160
Speaker 2: Have d I will have all kinds of excuses and

1263
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:50,520
Speaker 2: everything else if he gets plastered, and you know, good

1264
01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:55,360
Speaker 2: Locke because nobody people will start will stop caring right away.

1265
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,840
Speaker 1: Well, And I guess my question for the world is,

1266
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: and can I be critical of Colorado football without having

1267
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 1: to be that I'm attacking Dion? Like that's the one

1268
01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:09,680
Speaker 1: thing I just I don't understand because I feel like

1269
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:11,760
Speaker 1: every time a video gets posted that I'm part of

1270
01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:14,080
Speaker 1: where I'm like, yeah, this team's no good, people just

1271
01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:16,920
Speaker 1: immediately come back yet another person hating on Dion And

1272
01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:20,439
Speaker 1: it's like am I or am I? Just? Am I

1273
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 1: just watching what I watch and seeing what I see,

1274
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:24,800
Speaker 1: And I don't believe they're a very good football team,

1275
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 1: Like am I not allowed to believe that without it

1276
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 1: having to be some level of a hate towards the coach?

1277
01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:33,240
Speaker 2: I know it's like, I you know, really you can't

1278
01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:36,559
Speaker 2: even feel Ambivoli. It's like there's no hate and just

1279
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 2: look at them like they're not good, Like what's the

1280
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 2: big deal?

1281
01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 3: Like why are we doing that?

1282
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think the problem is this is the problem

1283
01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 1: with Colorado football. It's no longer about anything that's happening

1284
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 1: on the field. It is either a I am pro

1285
01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:52,639
Speaker 1: Dion or I am anti Dion. And to be clear,

1286
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm neither pro nor anti Dion. I'm pro watching it

1287
01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:58,720
Speaker 1: and trying to figure out what we see and I'm

1288
01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 1: anti that defense that I'm anti that offensive line being

1289
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: as much improved as we hoped it would be coming

1290
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,280
Speaker 1: into this season. And if it's not, that means Colorado's

1291
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:08,720
Speaker 1: not going to be very good. It means Chador's going

1292
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:10,840
Speaker 1: to put up big numbers, means Travis Hunter is going

1293
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:12,800
Speaker 1: to be a joy to watch. But Colorado's not going

1294
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:13,439
Speaker 1: to be very good.

1295
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:19,240
Speaker 2: Let's move on. Actually, this is a this is good game.

1296
01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:27,880
Speaker 2: Sneaky Syracuse Georgia Tech McCord looked good last week for Syracuse.

1297
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 2: He threw for three fifty four and four touchdowns against

1298
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 2: the Ohio Now, but you know that's a sneaky little

1299
01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 2: game that at Georgia Tech two and zero. I know

1300
01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:45,120
Speaker 2: Florida State doesn't look as impressive after Florida State going

1301
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 2: on too, but still that's a nice little game.

1302
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, the Florida State thing gets interesting

1303
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:53,519
Speaker 1: too because Florida State, I mean, let's be honest to

1304
01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:56,639
Speaker 1: Mike Novella is somebody I really I like. I met Mike,

1305
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,599
Speaker 1: I met coach when he was in Memphis, and I

1306
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:02,679
Speaker 1: liked him there, and I like the hire for Florida State.

1307
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,160
Speaker 1: But also, let's be honest for a second, that first

1308
01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:07,760
Speaker 1: year at Florida State was not an easy one for him,

1309
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 1: and there was a lot of conversation about not connecting

1310
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 1: with the locker room right. And then all of a

1311
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:14,920
Speaker 1: sudden they start winning, and it's amazing how winning fixes everything.

1312
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:18,080
Speaker 1: We all know that now that they're not winning, what happens,

1313
01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, how long can all

1314
01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,639
Speaker 1: of this be held together if this team just absolutely

1315
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,679
Speaker 1: falls off the rails. I expected more from Florida State

1316
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,840
Speaker 1: this year. I truly did. And you can even if

1317
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,400
Speaker 1: you want to excuse the first week, you can't excuse

1318
01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 1: the second one. You can't excuse BC doing that too.

1319
01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 1: It's Boston cous you can't excuse it. So things are

1320
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,240
Speaker 1: about to hit full panic. Vote at Florida State, oh.

1321
01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:48,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, had a big, big way bab back

1322
01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:52,120
Speaker 2: at it tonight. I know they had, you know, a

1323
01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:56,600
Speaker 2: cupcake in Western Kentucky. But one thing I love that

1324
01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:57,479
Speaker 2: Jalen Milroe.

1325
01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:02,760
Speaker 3: Man, he got he he's so good. He's just he's

1326
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:06,760
Speaker 3: the truth. Man. He could do so much, so much

1327
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 3: with here U. I know they only threw nine times

1328
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:14,200
Speaker 3: in the game and didn't have to throw it all.

1329
01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:18,640
Speaker 2: But they're they're they're interesting, They're gonna they're gonna be

1330
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:22,800
Speaker 2: They're gonna be somebody to watch even without saving So

1331
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 2: they're you got South Florida tonight. Next week interesting, you're

1332
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 2: at Camp Randall, so you're at Wisconsin. And then the

1333
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:42,280
Speaker 2: big one that's right September the twenty eighth, Georgia Bama.

1334
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:49,760
Speaker 2: Oh Saturday night, Brian Denny, Are you kidding me? How

1335
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 2: great would that be? How great game is that gonna be?

1336
01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:55,519
Speaker 1: I just wonder how much that game is gonna be

1337
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:59,519
Speaker 1: the freak out moment for Alabama fans, like, because as

1338
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 1: we said here, I don't believe there's just a gap.

1339
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:04,880
Speaker 1: I believe there's a continent between Georgia and everybody else

1340
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 1: that includes Alabama. So that Georgia Bama game, it just

1341
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:12,759
Speaker 1: it gets interesting to me all of this would Georgia

1342
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,479
Speaker 1: becomes such a line in the sand for the world,

1343
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:18,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, how how good is

1344
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 1: your team is going to be so largely dependent on

1345
01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,760
Speaker 1: how well did you compete against that football team. That's

1346
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 1: that's what becomes, you know, the difference maker here. So, yes,

1347
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:30,760
Speaker 1: you can go to Camp Randall and Camp Brando can

1348
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:33,160
Speaker 1: get tricky. I think Camp Brandall that's a great environment.

1349
01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:35,360
Speaker 1: It can get tricky. But coming back and going to

1350
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 1: george playing Georgia at home, that one is going to

1351
01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 1: be the one that Bama fans start freaking out at

1352
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 1: because I think that's where they discovered that this is

1353
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 1: not the Alabama that we've seen over the last few years.

1354
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a great point.

1355
01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 2: All right, with the quick teo as we're hanging out

1356
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:59,440
Speaker 2: next hour, we'll take a look at tomorrow. So tomorrow

1357
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 2: we'll go through each and every game out number four.

1358
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna have some picks. We'll kind of look at

1359
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:09,080
Speaker 2: the whole thing from a hole and you know, I mean,

1360
01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,759
Speaker 2: it's just just one of these days. Man, it's great

1361
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:18,879
Speaker 2: to just talk ball. It's bat baby. Jason Fitz Anthony

1362
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:20,919
Speaker 2: Gargano fits he's ready for the speedoup.

1363
01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 3: Because we.

1364
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio fellas from the tyraq dot com studios,

1365
01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:38,880
Speaker 2: we're looking at the college football slate, looking at kind

1366
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:41,719
Speaker 2: of landscape, what happened last week? What have we learned

1367
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:48,599
Speaker 2: entering a week two of college football? And uh, kind

1368
01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:53,000
Speaker 2: of looking at some of the teams, what we liked

1369
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:58,960
Speaker 2: out of week one, who we liked who to cross off? Like, uh,

1370
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:04,720
Speaker 2: my man's southside Chuck Kentucky Man asked you or we

1371
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 2: don't want to wish my happy birthday too, by the way,

1372
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 2: and he answer you, Yeah, we love our south side, Chuck.

1373
01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:19,240
Speaker 3: It says, Uh, does Dion leave Colorado for Florida State?

1374
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 2: Makes perfect sense, right because they're gonna be bereafs of

1375
01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:27,880
Speaker 2: talent and then he goes to Florida State and they

1376
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 2: go all in on nil and he goes back there.

1377
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that makes the most sense. And if

1378
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: you're if you're a Florida State, you have to know

1379
01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,240
Speaker 1: that's in your back pocket, right do you have to

1380
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:41,720
Speaker 1: think that that makes sense for everybody, especially if this

1381
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 1: Colorado thing goes wrong this year, because then Dion could

1382
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,320
Speaker 1: just walk away, say, you know, I gotta go home.

1383
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:49,200
Speaker 1: I gotta go back to the place that I love.

1384
01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,519
Speaker 1: Nobody questions it to win for Florida State, to win

1385
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,519
Speaker 1: for Colorado, or sorry, to win for Dion, and then

1386
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:58,599
Speaker 1: Colorado just has to figure out how to do whatever

1387
01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:00,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna do next. You know. But but that's going

1388
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,840
Speaker 1: to be a difficult decision for that school to figure

1389
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 1: out how to remain nationally prominent without winning a bunch

1390
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 1: of games, because it seems that winning a bunch of

1391
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,640
Speaker 1: games at Colorado, don't know, matter he your coaches is

1392
01:15:12,960 --> 01:15:15,519
Speaker 1: a tougher task than you know people want to acknowledge.

1393
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, and that move would make a ton of sense.

1394
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 1: And if I'm Mike Norvell, I'm certainly aware that that's

1395
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:22,720
Speaker 1: always right there in the shadows lurking.

1396
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:26,719
Speaker 2: Well, and I got to believe that that's the easy

1397
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:30,679
Speaker 2: you know, that's the easy fix. That's how you get

1398
01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:34,200
Speaker 2: people off their money, right, Like, that's how you get

1399
01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:37,240
Speaker 2: the alumni ready to roll, Like all right, you know,

1400
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,479
Speaker 2: we're we're a year laid into it. But now we're

1401
01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 2: coming in. We're coming in with Prime and you know

1402
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:50,479
Speaker 2: Prime did his you know, he did his residency in

1403
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 2: Colorado and now he's home right now, he's ready to

1404
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 2: build a big time program.

1405
01:15:57,240 --> 01:15:59,280
Speaker 3: You could see it.

1406
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:02,360
Speaker 1: It's an easy say pitch. I wonder if that sales

1407
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 1: pitch loses some of the appeal if Colorado wins four

1408
01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 1: games this year. But I also think that the argument

1409
01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:11,200
Speaker 1: everybody will make is you can't win at Colorado no matter.

1410
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:11,280
Speaker 3: Who you are.

1411
01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:14,120
Speaker 1: It's not Deon's fault, right, Like, that's the way people.

1412
01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:15,400
Speaker 3: That's the spade.

1413
01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:17,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure.

1414
01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:21,080
Speaker 3: And by the way, they're not really they're not entirely wrong.

1415
01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:24,759
Speaker 1: Either, correct. I mean, you're going to have such a

1416
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:29,160
Speaker 1: better recruiting stomping ground in Florida then you do anywhere

1417
01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 1: near Boulder, Right, it's going to be easy. They have

1418
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 1: the money to get whoever they want to get. And

1419
01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:36,800
Speaker 1: if you're Florida state, you also don't want to go

1420
01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 1: through this process of you have an opportunity right now

1421
01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: to really seize the state if you bring the right

1422
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,879
Speaker 1: person in. You know, because Florida, as we mentioned earlier,

1423
01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:48,280
Speaker 1: like Florida is not in a good situation at all right,

1424
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: so you're really coming in for Florida State and you're saying, Okay,

1425
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,080
Speaker 1: we don't want to let Miami seize the state. This

1426
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 1: is our chance for us to come in and kind

1427
01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:57,679
Speaker 1: of make our statement. I think it's important for Florida

1428
01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:01,439
Speaker 1: State to remain If they want to remain nationally relevant,

1429
01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: they're going to have to make sure that they figure

1430
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,240
Speaker 1: out a way to win more football games, and that

1431
01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:07,559
Speaker 1: might mean bringing in a coach that can help them

1432
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:10,080
Speaker 1: do that. I hate that for Norville because I really

1433
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:12,920
Speaker 1: I like to coach a lot, but I think you

1434
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 1: can't ignore the beginning of the regime when you're talking

1435
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:17,120
Speaker 1: about what we see right now with the regime.

1436
01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's it's it's tough. I think that's where

1437
01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:28,800
Speaker 2: it's headed. Let's keep going further down. And what did

1438
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 2: you think of Let's look at well, a whole misplate Furman,

1439
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:38,400
Speaker 2: and there was a whole lot of Jackson dart Man.

1440
01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 2: My god, six first half touchdowns for Jackson dart Uh.

1441
01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:50,280
Speaker 2: You got Middle Tennessee today, another cupcake, and then you're

1442
01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:58,479
Speaker 2: at Wake Forests Home Georgia, Southern Home, Kentucky at South

1443
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:04,120
Speaker 2: Carolina at then you then you got at LSU, but

1444
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:06,720
Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta go all the way to October

1445
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:11,720
Speaker 2: and then your home Oklahoma. So you got, man, that

1446
01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:13,479
Speaker 2: schedule pretty easy.

1447
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:17,280
Speaker 1: That's part of why I picked ole Miss. Like, look,

1448
01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:20,160
Speaker 1: I wanted a chaotic national championship pick, so I picked

1449
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:23,000
Speaker 1: on and overall Miss just for fun. But Ole Miss

1450
01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:25,280
Speaker 1: is a playoff team. Not only are they very good,

1451
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 1: but the schedule lays out for him. So now ole

1452
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:28,760
Speaker 1: Miss is a playoff team.

1453
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:33,160
Speaker 2: And the only thing is, you know, you got that

1454
01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:38,400
Speaker 2: easy schedule start, and then it gets dramatic, right because

1455
01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 2: then you're at LSU, your home Oklahoma, You're at Arkansas,

1456
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:51,680
Speaker 2: then you have to host Georgia, you get Florida, and

1457
01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 2: then you got Mississippi State, so get and they'll lose nasty.

1458
01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:59,160
Speaker 1: They'll lose one of those, maybe two of those, but

1459
01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 1: that's still gonna.

1460
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:01,280
Speaker 3: Put it in the playoffs. Yeah. Yeah.

1461
01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,320
Speaker 1: And then if I got a one game playoff and

1462
01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:06,000
Speaker 1: I got Jackson Dart with a coach that they've been

1463
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,800
Speaker 1: together for a minute, man, I feel pretty good about

1464
01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:13,120
Speaker 1: you know. I like coaching and player relationships that are

1465
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,920
Speaker 1: existing going into this year's playoffs. So I think guys

1466
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 1: that have had history together will have an advantage. So

1467
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:21,280
Speaker 1: I think all missus got a really nice path in

1468
01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:21,800
Speaker 1: front of them.

1469
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:24,559
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think that's a great point. I do.

1470
01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:28,760
Speaker 2: I think you're I think you nail it with that.

1471
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,879
Speaker 2: That's something in a year, in a year where everything

1472
01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:35,160
Speaker 2: is moving so quickly and guys come in and you

1473
01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 2: got to get you got.

1474
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:37,720
Speaker 3: To hit the ground running. To have that kind of

1475
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 3: history to build upon is a big deal.

1476
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:41,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. If I can have an experienced quarterback, like if

1477
01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 1: I could have an old man at quarterback, I like

1478
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 1: that too. So any guy that's been around a minute

1479
01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:47,759
Speaker 1: or knows their coach, well I'm banking on Yeah.

1480

Speaker 2: The slate for tomorrow. I got one question from the week,

1500
01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:08,160
Speaker 2: and maybe you know more about it. Who you follow

1501
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:10,919
Speaker 2: this story at all? But I found it very interesting.

1502
01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:19,360
Speaker 2: The did you see that the Commanders fired their vice

1503
01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:24,160
Speaker 2: president of content and the guy in charge the content.

1504
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:25,880
Speaker 1: For the comments that he made.

1505
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:28,640
Speaker 3: Yes, right, So I got a question for you.

1506
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 2: So if people didn't see the story or got lost,

1507
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:40,240
Speaker 2: he was on a date and the woman was an

1508
01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:46,519
Speaker 2: undercover reporter and he makes these comments. You know they're

1509
01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 2: goofy and the league is run by Jerry Jones, and

1510
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:56,080
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones is you know, homophobic and races. There was

1511
01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:59,360
Speaker 2: all these charges, right, and you know he's talking about

1512
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:02,200
Speaker 2: the league. He said all these things, and you know

1513
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:07,120
Speaker 2: clearly he was someone trying to impress this woman, and

1514
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 2: you know the way he was speaking and you know,

1515
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 2: firing out all these you know, these wild comments. He

1516
01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:20,599
Speaker 2: got fired. But what was weird about it was that

1517
01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:28,640
Speaker 2: he's being secretly recorded on what was supposed to be

1518
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:34,400
Speaker 2: a date and then the woman says she's a I

1519
01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:36,360
Speaker 2: don't know, I don't know if she told him or whatever,

1520
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,600
Speaker 2: but then she, you know, puts it out there on blasts.

1521
01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:42,000
Speaker 3: How is that okay?

1522
01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:45,000
Speaker 2: I mean, forgot about the comments were ridiculous, right, and

1523
01:22:45,320 --> 01:22:48,800
Speaker 2: and reckless and foolish, and you know you deserve to

1524
01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:51,880
Speaker 2: get fired for just speaking out a turn like that.

1525
01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:53,840
Speaker 3: But how's it.

1526
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:58,200
Speaker 2: Okay to to uh to to actually for her to

1527
01:22:58,240 --> 01:22:59,200
Speaker 2: publish those things.

1528
01:23:00,720 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm stunned it it was, and I would be stunned

1529
01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 1: if there isn't some sort of a lawsuit that he

1530
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:09,280
Speaker 1: files at some point, you know, civilly, because it is

1531
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:13,439
Speaker 1: absolutely altered his life. And you're right, like, there are

1532
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,720
Speaker 1: moments where okay, we just can't say that, and that's

1533
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 1: what everybody says. I would just remind the world. Imagine

1534
01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:22,639
Speaker 1: if you you know, your your worst joke, your worst moment,

1535
01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 1: your worst date, your worst holiday experience, the thing that

1536
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 1: you said about your grandpa on Thanksgiving when he's wearing

1537
01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:32,599
Speaker 1: you out imagine if that was recorded you had no idea,

1538
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,679
Speaker 1: and then it was played for him, Like it doesn't

1539
01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:36,439
Speaker 1: mean you should have said it, No, of course not.

1540
01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,400
Speaker 1: But also there has to be some ramification, like I

1541
01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:43,280
Speaker 1: cannot imagine being on a date and then suddenly losing

1542
01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 1: my job because I said something on a date to

1543
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:49,000
Speaker 1: somebody about Jerry Jones. And it's not that simple, I

1544
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 1: get it, But there is some simple element of like

1545
01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:56,200
Speaker 1: recording without consent. It's just absolutely it's just wrong. You know,

1546
01:23:56,439 --> 01:24:00,559
Speaker 1: it's secretly recording somebody and then releasing those recordings too,

1547
01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 1: you know, to get them in trouble. Is not the

1548
01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:05,840
Speaker 1: sort of behavior that should be rewarded.

1549
01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:10,160
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you. I mean, the whole thing comes out,

1550
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:13,479
Speaker 2: and I keep waiting for the other shoe, which is,

1551
01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:18,759
Speaker 2: how is that okay? It's like she's an undercover reporter.

1552
01:24:18,880 --> 01:24:21,559
Speaker 2: What like, hey, if you're going.

1553
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 1: In the one, that's not a thing and under recover,

1554
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:27,120
Speaker 1: like an undercover cop is a thing, an under undercover

1555
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,400
Speaker 1: reporter is not a thing like that. That that's that's

1556
01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:32,679
Speaker 1: just making up some way to get somebody.

1557
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 3: Dude, I thought, listen. I studied journalism.

1558
01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:40,439
Speaker 2: I was a journalist in another life, right, I was

1559
01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:47,360
Speaker 2: a newspaper writer when newspapers mattered, and that's not a

1560
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:53,360
Speaker 2: thing like that's you know, investigative journalism is something. But

1561
01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:58,200
Speaker 2: going out on a on a tender date and recording

1562
01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:01,280
Speaker 2: the guy over over old fashioneds.

1563
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 3: That's not a reporter.

1564
01:25:04,439 --> 01:25:10,240
Speaker 2: That's ridiculous and it's it's reckless and dangerous, and it

1565
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,920
Speaker 2: was funny. I thought of you only in this sense,

1566
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:18,880
Speaker 2: you know, because you're in the dating world, Like, how

1567
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 2: could you actually go on a date with someone you

1568
01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 2: met online in one of those apps and trust anything.

1569
01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,640
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody can trust anybody anymore, you know.

1570
01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 1: And that's why, at least until you get into you know,

1571
01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:37,400
Speaker 1: deep and meaningful stages, I think you really have to

1572
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:39,240
Speaker 1: be careful and you have to make sure that everything

1573
01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:44,080
Speaker 1: is take the high road on everything. And to this day, sure,

1574
01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:48,080
Speaker 1: amongst my closest friends, amongst the people I care about

1575
01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:51,120
Speaker 1: the most, if I was sitting down having conversations about

1576
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:53,400
Speaker 1: the band I was in, I would probably say some things,

1577
01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:58,760
Speaker 1: But ninety nine percent of my life, if anybody asked me,

1578
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:02,120
Speaker 1: I have nothing but glowing things to say about everybody

1579
01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:04,800
Speaker 1: that I was ever toured with. Why because like, and

1580
01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,920
Speaker 1: there's just no good in bringing any of that up there, Like,

1581
01:26:08,040 --> 01:26:09,720
Speaker 1: we no longer live in a spot where you can

1582
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,439
Speaker 1: feel safe even venting. Right, It's just it's such a

1583
01:26:12,479 --> 01:26:15,000
Speaker 1: weird world to be and to know that you can't

1584
01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:17,519
Speaker 1: even really like, so what do you do? Needs to

1585
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:21,880
Speaker 1: be a very easy, shallow conversation and follow up questions.

1586
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:24,559
Speaker 1: You need to just always spin the positive because until

1587
01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:26,800
Speaker 1: you truly know someone, I don't think you can trust

1588
01:26:26,840 --> 01:26:27,679
Speaker 1: anybody anymore.

1589
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:29,960
Speaker 3: No, it's bizarre.

1590
01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 2: You always the whole the whole thing, where the whole

1591
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:38,680
Speaker 2: thing was talked about. It was like undercover reporter, I'm like,

1592
01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:43,280
Speaker 2: well what and then and then I'm thinking to myself, Hey,

1593
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:49,439
Speaker 2: there's a million things wrong in this world right now.

1594
01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 3: God only knows what's happening behind closed.

1595
01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:57,320
Speaker 2: Doors in a lot of arenas, what happens at the

1596
01:26:57,560 --> 01:27:04,600
Speaker 2: Washington commanders. Who gives a bleep? Are you kidding me? Like,

1597
01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 2: are you like seriously when you have the world going

1598
01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:13,559
Speaker 2: the hell and all kinds of stuff happening, and you know.

1599
01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:18,479
Speaker 3: You were to waste your time on that this undercover reporter.

1600
01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:22,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's not like they were going after the

1601
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:24,479
Speaker 1: owner of the team or exactly.

1602
01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:28,320
Speaker 2: It's some some schlep, right who should charge of social media?

1603
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:32,560
Speaker 2: Like were you kidded me? You're recorded?

1604
01:27:32,760 --> 01:27:34,400
Speaker 3: Oh god, it's.

1605
01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:37,120
Speaker 1: What we become. We become a gotcha society, like and

1606
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:39,840
Speaker 1: this is this is even true for our sports takes.

1607
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:43,560
Speaker 1: I could sit there and have a nuanced conversation about

1608
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,439
Speaker 1: Colorado all day long, right, but if you say one

1609
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:48,960
Speaker 1: thing in that thing that either gets clipped off or

1610
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 1: somebody's yeah, then all of a sudden, people want they

1611
01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:53,760
Speaker 1: want to find the one reason that they can clap

1612
01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:57,920
Speaker 1: back without any nuance. Like it's just it's wildly frustrating

1613
01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:00,280
Speaker 1: to me that that's way the way we be come

1614
01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:03,000
Speaker 1: consumers of all information. It doesn't make any sense.

1615
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:07,520
Speaker 2: No, it's there is no context to anything. There's no context,

1616
01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:11,679
Speaker 2: and there's no nuance to your point, there's none of it.

1617
01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:17,479
Speaker 2: You can't actually have a conversation that covers the you know,

1618
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:20,959
Speaker 2: covers runs the whole gamut and looks the number.

1619
01:28:20,720 --> 01:28:23,800
Speaker 1: Of times like some if something really quick is is

1620
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:25,680
Speaker 1: clipped off of any of the shows I've ever been

1621
01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:28,120
Speaker 1: a part of a thirty second sound bite, and they'll

1622
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 1: be like, well, you didn't talk about this, this, this, this,

1623
01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:32,160
Speaker 1: and this, and I've responded to people in the past

1624
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:34,639
Speaker 1: a different you know, when I cared more, I responded

1625
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:36,240
Speaker 1: to people and be like, no I did. It's it's

1626
01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:38,240
Speaker 1: in the entire twelve minute conversation going back and you

1627
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:40,439
Speaker 1: get a whole thing, and the first thing that people

1628
01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:42,800
Speaker 1: say is, well, I'm not listening to all that. It's like, okay,

1629
01:28:42,840 --> 01:28:44,760
Speaker 1: so you don't even want the context. You just want

1630
01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 1: to be able to find a reason to disgree with

1631
01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: me and tell me I'm an idiot so that we

1632
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 1: can engage in this like fake debate that just serves nobody.

1633
01:28:52,360 --> 01:28:55,360
Speaker 1: And that's that's what gotcha society we live in.

1634
01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, none of it has a point, No, it's it's like,

1635
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,120
Speaker 2: it was funny. I was having this conversation last night

1636
01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:07,599
Speaker 2: because you know, the other piece of it is if

1637
01:29:07,640 --> 01:29:14,880
Speaker 2: you're criticizing the home team, you're a jackal right.

1638
01:29:15,200 --> 01:29:16,479
Speaker 3: So I was having this conversation.

1639
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 2: I was watching the game with my cousin and we

1640
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,600
Speaker 2: were talking about Hurts and I'm like, I tell you,

1641
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 2: I'm disappointed him, right, Like, you know, I expected more

1642
01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 2: week one. I know he didn't play, but you know

1643
01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:38,360
Speaker 2: I expected a better handle of the position. Like I

1644
01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:45,040
Speaker 2: expected him last night to not be his happy feet,

1645
01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:48,720
Speaker 2: to keep his eyes down the field, to really kind

1646
01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:51,599
Speaker 2: of look and play the quarterback. Forget about being reckless

1647
01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:54,640
Speaker 2: with the ball, because that was obvious. But you have

1648
01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:58,920
Speaker 2: you have a quarterback's dream around you. You need to

1649
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:02,640
Speaker 2: now understand and what you're looking at and be a quarterback.

1650
01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:05,680
Speaker 2: And I thought he fell short last night and that

1651
01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,839
Speaker 2: he had some moments and he could certainly throw football,

1652
01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:11,360
Speaker 2: but he needs to be the court. If they're gonna

1653
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:13,599
Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl, he's got to play the position.

1654
01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:17,400
Speaker 2: And we were talking about that and I go, you know,

1655
01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:21,680
Speaker 2: I can't go all I'm like, I was frustrated by it,

1656
01:30:22,479 --> 01:30:25,000
Speaker 2: but you can't go over more because then if there's

1657
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:27,320
Speaker 2: a clip of that and go like you're a hater

1658
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,479
Speaker 2: of Hurts, I'm like, no, I love Hurts, but he

1659
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,160
Speaker 2: needs to be a quarterback.

1660
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:35,439
Speaker 1: My friend. It is an annual tradition as a lifelong

1661
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:39,320
Speaker 1: diehard Raiders fan every year, and I'm I'm pretty realistic.

1662
01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:42,360
Speaker 1: I've been within one game of the win total almost

1663
01:30:42,360 --> 01:30:44,760
Speaker 1: every year that I've made a prediction every year in

1664
01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:46,559
Speaker 1: the summer when I'm asked to make a prediction of

1665
01:30:46,560 --> 01:30:48,800
Speaker 1: the Raiders and I predict that they're going to be bad.

1666
01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:54,280
Speaker 1: I get absolute hate from Raiders fans constantly about you know,

1667
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:57,439
Speaker 1: yet again, you don't believe in this team. Blah blah

1668
01:30:57,439 --> 01:30:59,200
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, you're not even like, you're not even

1669
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:02,240
Speaker 1: a fan, all the things a fansy. And then inevitably,

1670
01:31:02,439 --> 01:31:05,040
Speaker 1: when the year is going about like I expected to

1671
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:07,960
Speaker 1: and I'm not the sky is falling with that because

1672
01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:10,280
Speaker 1: it's kind of what I thought would happen, then people

1673
01:31:10,320 --> 01:31:12,160
Speaker 1: come in and be like, why aren't you tougher on

1674
01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:14,040
Speaker 1: this team. It's like, because they're exactly who I thought

1675
01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:15,720
Speaker 1: they were gonna be. Like this year, I think the

1676
01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:17,880
Speaker 1: Raiders are gonna go seven and ten, maybe eight and

1677
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:20,120
Speaker 1: nine if I'm lucky. That's the way I see the team.

1678
01:31:20,320 --> 01:31:22,719
Speaker 1: So if they go seven and ten, eight and nine,

1679
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:25,080
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna this guy's not gonna be falling. But

1680
01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:27,599
Speaker 1: fans are gonna freak out at me the entire way

1681
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:30,439
Speaker 1: because I wasn't positive enough when they wanted me to

1682
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:32,880
Speaker 1: be positive, and I wasn't negative enough when they want

1683
01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:34,760
Speaker 1: me to be negative. And that's the weird part of

1684
01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:37,679
Speaker 1: the way sports are consumed now. Even like I don't

1685
01:31:37,680 --> 01:31:42,639
Speaker 1: think people want honest evaluation or honest news anymore. People

1686
01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:45,880
Speaker 1: just want their feelings reinforced about their favorite team. And

1687
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,679
Speaker 1: if you don't do that, you're obviously a moron.

1688
01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, yes, yes, Speaking of Raiders, did you see

1689
01:31:55,040 --> 01:32:01,479
Speaker 2: who is back in the media or back with a YouTube? No,

1690
01:32:01,720 --> 01:32:05,640
Speaker 2: the Groo Dog is back on YouTube? Is actually on

1691
01:32:05,680 --> 01:32:09,120
Speaker 2: YouTube now, John Gruden.

1692
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:14,639
Speaker 1: You know, coach, I'll like this is my funny Gruden story.

1693
01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:18,360
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty, the first year for the team in Vegas,

1694
01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:19,840
Speaker 1: I did some work for the team. I do some

1695
01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:21,759
Speaker 1: digital shows for the team on the side for front

1696
01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 1: and every year they sort of at the end of

1697
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 1: the years, so thank you, they get me some gear,

1698
01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:29,799
Speaker 1: some things like right, like I love this. So twenty

1699
01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:32,000
Speaker 1: twenty they were like, hey, can we get you something

1700
01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 1: for helping us out this year? And I said, you

1701
01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:35,479
Speaker 1: know what, I would love a sign jersey that has

1702
01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:37,840
Speaker 1: the number twenty and the word Vegas on the back

1703
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:40,160
Speaker 1: because it's first year in Vegas twenty twenty. I want

1704
01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:42,280
Speaker 1: to remember this. Ever that's cool and they said, and

1705
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:43,800
Speaker 1: they said, who do you want to sign it? So

1706
01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:45,400
Speaker 1: I thought at the time and I was like, well,

1707
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:47,760
Speaker 1: players come and go and we all know, players come

1708
01:32:47,760 --> 01:32:49,559
Speaker 1: and go, so who can I get to sign this

1709
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:52,719
Speaker 1: thing that will be relevant to this team? But also

1710
01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:54,960
Speaker 1: I don't ever have to worry about like, ah, that

1711
01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,280
Speaker 1: guy signed the jersey. So I say, can coach sign it?

1712
01:32:57,320 --> 01:32:58,960
Speaker 1: Can Gruden sign it? They're like, yeah, we'll get Gruden

1713
01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:01,040
Speaker 1: to sign it for you know forty. So I get

1714
01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:03,639
Speaker 1: this jersey sign. I have it framed. It's in my basement.

1715
01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:06,320
Speaker 1: I have this frame jersey sign and it's from Gruden,

1716
01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:08,599
Speaker 1: and I remember hanging in thinking this is perfect because

1717
01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:10,240
Speaker 1: there'll never be a problem with this one.

1718
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:12,040
Speaker 3: And then oh my god.

1719
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:16,559
Speaker 1: I sat there and when everything went down, I was like, what, Oh,

1720
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:19,040
Speaker 1: that is an interesting jersey to have signed on my

1721
01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:22,160
Speaker 1: wall now, so you know it is. It's funny to

1722
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:23,840
Speaker 1: me that the one guy I picked, the one guy

1723
01:33:23,840 --> 01:33:26,120
Speaker 1: that I thought, hey, there will never be like this this.

1724
01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:28,360
Speaker 1: He's not gonna go play for somebody else, He's not

1725
01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:30,519
Speaker 1: going to go be a part of a rival. I'm

1726
01:33:30,520 --> 01:33:32,960
Speaker 1: not gonna have to worry about these things. And with players,

1727
01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:35,439
Speaker 1: you just never know. So right next to my sign

1728
01:33:35,520 --> 01:33:39,040
Speaker 1: Max Crosby jersey is a sign Raiders jersey from Gruden

1729
01:33:39,120 --> 01:33:40,720
Speaker 1: that I thought would be problematic.

1730
01:33:41,240 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 3: Oh that's great. That's a great story. That's what that is.

1731
01:33:45,240 --> 01:33:48,080
Speaker 3: That's a strong that's that's a strong story.

1732
01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:52,360
Speaker 2: He's like a member of the Fired Coaches Society, the

1733
01:33:52,479 --> 01:34:01,040
Speaker 2: NFCS National Fired Coaches Society NFCS. That's right, let's go

1734
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:05,240
Speaker 2: through the games, you know, you know, partly it just

1735
01:34:05,400 --> 01:34:06,960
Speaker 2: grooted tall.

1736
01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:10,840
Speaker 3: He's got the whiteboard. Oh my god, it's By.

1737
01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:14,439
Speaker 2: It's By, like one of the Gamble gambling company is

1738
01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:15,480
Speaker 2: the one.

1739
01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:17,880
Speaker 1: No doubt, I mean no doubt. Like, but that's also

1740
01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:20,320
Speaker 1: funny to me, Like my guy has made what one

1741
01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:23,960
Speaker 1: hundred million plus in his life and still these these

1742
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:27,000
Speaker 1: coaches are so passionate about the game that they're like,

1743
01:34:27,120 --> 01:34:28,600
Speaker 1: I gotta find a way to talk about it. Like

1744
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:30,360
Speaker 1: it's just it's it's there, you know.

1745
01:34:30,560 --> 01:34:34,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's it probably drove him nuts, just like he

1746
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:37,880
Speaker 2: just couldn't sit on his money. No, It's like it's

1747
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:44,040
Speaker 2: like Belichick. Belichick is is on Instagram, right, Like Belichick

1748
01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:45,880
Speaker 2: joints Instagram.

1749
01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:50,240
Speaker 1: Like why well, I mean I'm watching Saban every Saturday.

1750
01:34:50,479 --> 01:34:52,800
Speaker 1: And Saban was great on game Day last week. By

1751
01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:56,639
Speaker 1: the way, he had a moment they were talking about

1752
01:34:56,640 --> 01:34:58,679
Speaker 1: the pay that has gone to the players at Ohio

1753
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:00,679
Speaker 1: State and he had such a real moment where he said,

1754
01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:03,120
Speaker 1: you got to watch out, though, because if you pay

1755
01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:04,760
Speaker 1: the wrong guys, your s out of luck. And he

1756
01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:07,240
Speaker 1: said the word on TV and it was such a

1757
01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:10,320
Speaker 1: brilliant clip of analysis. I was like, this is what

1758
01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:13,000
Speaker 1: Saban brings to this and it is incredible. I love

1759
01:35:13,479 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 1: Saban on game day is absolutely great.

1760
01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:18,600
Speaker 3: What are you doing? What do you do?

1761
01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:21,200
Speaker 1: You finally have Saturdays off for the first time to

1762
01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,439
Speaker 1: hang out with Miss Terry and the family, and now

1763
01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:25,280
Speaker 1: you ain't doing that. You're out there, Like I know

1764
01:35:25,360 --> 01:35:27,920
Speaker 1: he's getting millions of dollars to do it, but come on,

1765
01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:30,280
Speaker 1: Like I still look at him, like just show up.

1766
01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:33,759
Speaker 3: That's just the one thing where the money is relevant

1767
01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:34,720
Speaker 3: to those guys.

1768
01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:37,759
Speaker 2: Like what's you That's true. It clips to certain level.

1769
01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:39,960
Speaker 2: You're not doing it for the money. You're doing it

1770
01:35:40,000 --> 01:35:43,320
Speaker 2: because you can't give it up. Like it's like, well,

1771
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:45,280
Speaker 2: I got to be part of the game. I got

1772
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 2: to be a part of the landscape.

1773
01:35:47,520 --> 01:35:49,559
Speaker 3: I get it. Like you know, if you.

1774
01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:53,960
Speaker 2: Think about it, it makes complete sense. You have two people, right,

1775
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:58,960
Speaker 2: two types of coaches. The lifelong coach that will never

1776
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:04,479
Speaker 2: be on television that only wants to coach and like,

1777
01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:08,720
Speaker 2: to me, that's Andy Reid. Andy Reid is, Oh, he

1778
01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:12,400
Speaker 2: would never do TV. He would like he does those

1779
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:15,280
Speaker 2: I talked him about this. He does those, the Nuggie commercials,

1780
01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:18,720
Speaker 2: the State Farm stuff. He does it because of Mahomes

1781
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:23,000
Speaker 2: because he loves Mahomes right like they are. They just

1782
01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:27,360
Speaker 2: have a beautiful father son type of relationship. And he

1783
01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:30,280
Speaker 2: does it for him. But he doesn't he would want

1784
01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:34,400
Speaker 2: no part of doing it a to be on you know,

1785
01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:40,960
Speaker 2: some battle like no interest in that. And Belichick surprises

1786
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:43,200
Speaker 2: me that he wants to do that. That's weird.

1787
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:45,320
Speaker 3: I got.

1788
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:47,800
Speaker 1: You just got to feel like he wants to talk ball,

1789
01:36:48,520 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 1: you know. And I will say I got really lucky

1790
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:53,080
Speaker 1: when I got out of touring and people said, do

1791
01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:55,400
Speaker 1: you miss it? I said no, because I went from

1792
01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:57,559
Speaker 1: one locker room to another, like a tour bus. Life

1793
01:36:57,640 --> 01:37:00,760
Speaker 1: is like a locker room. ESPN life honestly like a

1794
01:37:00,800 --> 01:37:02,760
Speaker 1: locker room. You've got friends with you everywhere. It's like

1795
01:37:02,760 --> 01:37:05,599
Speaker 1: a college campus meets a locker room. You've got all

1796
01:37:05,600 --> 01:37:09,639
Speaker 1: those things. So you know, certainly for for guys like Sabing,

1797
01:37:09,720 --> 01:37:11,320
Speaker 1: it gives you the chance to be around Hall of

1798
01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:14,000
Speaker 1: Famers and talk, you know, talk ball with a bunch

1799
01:37:14,040 --> 01:37:17,040
Speaker 1: of people that you know you really enjoy. I see that.

1800
01:37:17,120 --> 01:37:18,760
Speaker 1: For a guy like Belichick, you get to be at

1801
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:22,000
Speaker 1: every big event every Saturday, so it's a really fun

1802
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:24,519
Speaker 1: way to stay around the game. I see all of that.

1803
01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:27,479
Speaker 1: I also just want to be clear, I love working

1804
01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,600
Speaker 1: on the fellas. If I was worth I don't know,

1805
01:37:29,680 --> 01:37:32,200
Speaker 1: Like let's say, let's say ten million dollars, my friend,

1806
01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:34,200
Speaker 1: I would just listen to you every Saturday. I want

1807
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:35,439
Speaker 1: to hang out with you. I just listened to you

1808
01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:37,880
Speaker 1: every Saturday. Like there's a number, and once I hit

1809
01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:39,920
Speaker 1: that number, I would just be like, yep, I am out.

1810
01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:41,559
Speaker 1: I am going to sit on my butt. I say

1811
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:43,519
Speaker 1: that I'd make it a week sitting on my butt,

1812
01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:45,120
Speaker 1: and then I'd need to fight something to do. You know,

1813
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:47,439
Speaker 1: i'd make it a week, but I certainly wouldn't.

1814
01:37:47,479 --> 01:37:49,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you would. You would do stuff like.

1815
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:54,880
Speaker 1: Animal shelters and like your help the world.

1816
01:37:54,920 --> 01:37:58,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you would. You would do it. And I'm with you.

1817
01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:03,840
Speaker 2: I don't get what some of the coaches, you know,

1818
01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:06,360
Speaker 2: the TV piece of it like that, you know, I

1819
01:38:06,439 --> 01:38:08,519
Speaker 2: get you want to talk ball and saving You're right,

1820
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:11,360
Speaker 2: is good at it, like he's good in those commercials,

1821
01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:14,720
Speaker 2: the whole thing. But at some point, I don't know.

1822
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:19,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's bizarre now. The lifelong coaches

1823
01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:22,240
Speaker 2: like I know that Andy would never like when he

1824
01:38:22,360 --> 01:38:25,040
Speaker 2: left the Eagles, he got fired, right, and he got it,

1825
01:38:25,200 --> 01:38:28,880
Speaker 2: which was unbelievable. Right, he got a job the next day,

1826
01:38:28,960 --> 01:38:31,320
Speaker 2: Like I thought he would take off a year. No,

1827
01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:34,639
Speaker 2: he gets a job five minutes later. He had a job.

1828
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:37,400
Speaker 2: There was no way he was giving up coaching, no way.

1829
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:39,479
Speaker 2: I absolutely loves it, you know.

1830
01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:42,479
Speaker 1: I do love that though. You know, and I will

1831
01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:45,040
Speaker 1: say too, if you want to stay in the game,

1832
01:38:45,439 --> 01:38:47,360
Speaker 1: you don't want to take the time off, right like.

1833
01:38:47,760 --> 01:38:50,360
Speaker 1: And that's I can't speak to what it's like to

1834
01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:52,120
Speaker 1: be a prominent football coach, but I can tell you

1835
01:38:52,160 --> 01:38:53,920
Speaker 1: what it was like a year and a half ago

1836
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:55,639
Speaker 1: when you know, the New York Post let the world

1837
01:38:55,720 --> 01:38:58,719
Speaker 1: know that my contract was, you know, being terminated by ESPN.

1838
01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:00,320
Speaker 1: And the one thing I'll say about that, a lot

1839
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 1: of people don't realize in our business and that level,

1840
01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 1: the contracts are fully guaranteed. So I had the option

1841
01:39:06,360 --> 01:39:08,360
Speaker 1: of sitting on my butt and not working for eighteen

1842
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,000
Speaker 1: months and getting all of my money or going to work,

1843
01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:14,960
Speaker 1: and you know, we were we were negotiating with Yahoo

1844
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,880
Speaker 1: within a day, and I was back at work, you know.

1845
01:39:19,040 --> 01:39:20,960
Speaker 1: But as soon as that contract was figured out and

1846
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:22,719
Speaker 1: Fox was figured out, I was right back at work.

1847
01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:24,599
Speaker 1: And there were plenty of my peers that were like, hey,

1848
01:39:24,640 --> 01:39:26,360
Speaker 1: just take some time and go sit on a boat,

1849
01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:28,360
Speaker 1: you know, like hang out, like you've worked really hard,

1850
01:39:28,400 --> 01:39:31,360
Speaker 1: Like take some time for me. Because I wanted to

1851
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:32,800
Speaker 1: stay in the game and I wanted to make sure

1852
01:39:32,800 --> 01:39:34,880
Speaker 1: that I was still relevant and people still knew my work.

1853
01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:36,560
Speaker 1: There was never a chance that I was going to

1854
01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:38,280
Speaker 1: take more than a day off if I didn't have to.

1855
01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:40,880
Speaker 1: So I totally feel that if you're Andy Reid, you're

1856
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,000
Speaker 1: looking around and you're like, doesn't matter that I don't

1857
01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:45,000
Speaker 1: need to work. I want to stay in this, and

1858
01:39:45,040 --> 01:39:46,320
Speaker 1: if I want to stay in this, I don't want

1859
01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:48,400
Speaker 1: to give anyone a reason to forget what I'm doing.

1860
01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:50,519

1899
01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:57,639
Speaker 1: the grace of the first Sunday of the NFL where

1900
01:41:57,680 --> 01:41:58,360

1901
01:41:58,479 --> 01:41:59,040

01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:03,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually love that.

1904
01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:07,200
Speaker 2: I love when my team plays on a Sunday night

1905
01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:10,920
Speaker 2: or a Monday night, or you know, like in this

1906
01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:15,760
Speaker 2: case of Friday night. I'll watch every game possible. Now,

1907
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:19,439
Speaker 2: I want to stick to like, I'll stick to a couple.

1908
01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:24,000
Speaker 2: I'm not the biggest red zone, but I have like

1909
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:27,600
Speaker 2: the package, right, So I will wind up kind of

1910
01:42:27,640 --> 01:42:33,400
Speaker 2: clicking through everything and I'll watch chunks of every game

1911
01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:36,680
Speaker 2: and I'll sit there and I'll take I have my

1912
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:41,280
Speaker 2: notebook like you do, I'm sure, and I'll just start

1913
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:45,920
Speaker 2: because so much I know about you, like when you're

1914
01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:49,040
Speaker 2: at the sports bar or whatever. I'm home watching these games.

1915
01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:53,519
Speaker 2: There's so many things that just pop up. So I

1916
01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:56,920
Speaker 2: just sit with a legal pad and just write a

1917
01:42:56,920 --> 01:43:02,240
Speaker 2: bunch of stuff. Players, I like, nice plays, moments and

1918
01:43:02,840 --> 01:43:04,920
Speaker 2: you know, and I'll you know, some games if i'm

1919
01:43:04,960 --> 01:43:08,160
Speaker 2: if it's a full game, I'll chart it, you know, one,

1920
01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 2: you know one ten twenty eight right first and ten

1921
01:43:11,520 --> 01:43:15,719
Speaker 2: and twenty eight yard line, two seven thirty one three

1922
01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:19,520
Speaker 2: yard run right like you know, tackle by x Y.

1923
01:43:19,720 --> 01:43:21,800
Speaker 3: So I do those? Do you do those charts? Do

1924
01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:22,880
Speaker 3: you chart games like that?

1925
01:43:23,320 --> 01:43:25,920
Speaker 1: No? I don't usually chart a lot because I'm I'm

1926
01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:28,439
Speaker 1: rarely watching one game at a time. But what I do,

1927
01:43:28,600 --> 01:43:31,240
Speaker 1: like this is sort of my nerdism. I always have

1928
01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:35,639
Speaker 1: a Google doc open, and then i Google is apparently

1929
01:43:35,640 --> 01:43:38,880
Speaker 1: talking to me. I have my doc open, and I

1930
01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:41,080
Speaker 1: have it separated by games, so then I can go

1931
01:43:41,200 --> 01:43:43,439
Speaker 1: in and with all the tabs open, I just quick

1932
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:46,200
Speaker 1: make notes on everything. So that's a constant, Like I'm

1933
01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:48,720
Speaker 1: making notes on every like one play, one player, one line, lot,

1934
01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:50,120
Speaker 1: for you. A lot of times, what I do is

1935
01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:53,519
Speaker 1: like I'll read type it like too. Yeah, like I

1936
01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:55,320
Speaker 1: type in because I I type fast. So to me,

1937
01:43:55,360 --> 01:43:58,280
Speaker 1: it's like it's easy to write two thirty big big pass,

1938
01:43:58,320 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 1: and then I can go back on game Pass. If

1939
01:44:00,280 --> 01:44:02,040
Speaker 1: I want to rewatch anything to try and figure out

1940
01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:03,960
Speaker 1: what I was talking about, I can go back on

1941
01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:06,240
Speaker 1: game Pass and watch it the next day. So like

1942
01:44:06,280 --> 01:44:09,640
Speaker 1: for me, Sunday is absorb as much as I can

1943
01:44:09,640 --> 01:44:12,160
Speaker 1: because Sunday night I do a Yahoo reaction show where

1944
01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:14,439
Speaker 1: we react to every single game. So yeah, you have

1945
01:44:14,479 --> 01:44:15,880
Speaker 1: to have a little bit of a sense. But then

1946
01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:18,760
Speaker 1: Monday Tuesday is rewatch, right, Like I think that's one

1947
01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:21,400
Speaker 1: of the most important things in our job, is like,

1948
01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:22,960
Speaker 1: if there's a game you know you're going to be

1949
01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:24,920
Speaker 1: talking about, you just got to rewatch it a couple

1950
01:44:24,960 --> 01:44:27,360
Speaker 1: of times. So game pass, let's me do that the

1951
01:44:27,400 --> 01:44:28,840
Speaker 1: next day. So I try and make notes that I

1952
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:30,320
Speaker 1: can re reference on game Pass.

1953
01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:33,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Mondays and Tuesdays I go to NFL Films

1954
01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 2: and I sit with Baldy and we watch film. So

1955
01:44:38,360 --> 01:44:42,920
Speaker 2: I'll spend a good chunk of chunk of time. You know,

1956
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:46,600
Speaker 2: we'll get big cups of coffee and sit there and

1957
01:44:47,160 --> 01:44:50,160
Speaker 2: kind of just go through the tape.

1958
01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:54,120
Speaker 1: So and it is funny to me because the first Sunday,

1959
01:44:54,160 --> 01:44:57,240
Speaker 1: like this year, they're adding We've added back a Sunday

1960
01:44:57,240 --> 01:44:59,680
Speaker 1: fantasy football show for Yahoo. So from noon to one,

1961
01:44:59,680 --> 01:45:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm doing a fantasy football show that ends right as

1962
01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:04,679
Speaker 1: games kickoff. That's my only detern tomorrow because I really

1963
01:45:04,720 --> 01:45:07,360
Speaker 1: want to go to a bar, because I love the

1964
01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:10,360
Speaker 1: energy of a sports bar that's packed and everybody's super

1965
01:45:10,360 --> 01:45:14,599
Speaker 1: into it. The problem is the only like Connecticut doesn't

1966
01:45:14,640 --> 01:45:17,519
Speaker 1: have the best sports bar scene, honestly, like so most

1967
01:45:17,600 --> 01:45:19,120
Speaker 1: of the sports bars that I would want to go

1968
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:20,960
Speaker 1: to that would actually have the games in the audio

1969
01:45:21,000 --> 01:45:23,479
Speaker 1: from games and like a game vibe or solid twenty

1970
01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:26,880
Speaker 1: minutes away. So that's my big decision is like, if

1971
01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:28,920
Speaker 1: I'm done with the show at one, do I just

1972
01:45:28,960 --> 01:45:32,559
Speaker 1: walk downstairs three four TVs let it happen, or do

1973
01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:35,040
Speaker 1: I go to a bar and be amongst the people.

1974
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:36,800
Speaker 1: That's my great debate I haven't figured out yet.

1975
01:45:38,040 --> 01:45:42,160
Speaker 2: I'll be at home. I like I'm more of a

1976
01:45:42,200 --> 01:45:45,120
Speaker 2: home body with football. I'm not a big fan of

1977
01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:48,800
Speaker 2: being out. I hate being out with my team plays, but.

1978
01:45:50,080 --> 01:45:51,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I shouldn't be in public when the Raiders

1979
01:45:51,960 --> 01:45:55,600
Speaker 1: play it. I myself, Like you talk about recording conversations.

1980
01:45:55,640 --> 01:45:58,960
Speaker 1: But the one thing I would say is that sometimes

1981
01:45:59,040 --> 01:46:02,080
Speaker 1: the advantage to being like in a Buffalo wil Wings

1982
01:46:02,160 --> 01:46:05,080
Speaker 1: or whatever, the advantage is that you might not have

1983
01:46:05,160 --> 01:46:07,479
Speaker 1: your eyes on a game at one particular time, and

1984
01:46:07,520 --> 01:46:10,559
Speaker 1: then a whole crowd goes nuts that's pocketed over watching

1985
01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 1: a game. And it'd be like, oh, I can quickly

1986
01:46:12,280 --> 01:46:15,360
Speaker 1: write down, you know, three minutes first period for three

1987
01:46:15,360 --> 01:46:18,040
Speaker 1: minutes first quarter Browns. I mean, like something happened there

1988
01:46:18,080 --> 01:46:19,720
Speaker 1: that made all the Browns fans go nuts. So I

1989
01:46:19,760 --> 01:46:21,439
Speaker 1: do I kind of like the cheek code of having

1990
01:46:21,439 --> 01:46:23,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of other people that are also watching.

1991
01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:27,320
Speaker 2: That's that's that's interesting, that's smart. Do you have a

1992
01:46:27,400 --> 01:46:30,400
Speaker 2: problem that I that I have at a place like that?

1993
01:46:31,240 --> 01:46:38,160
Speaker 2: Compared to you, you are, uh. The one one of

1994
01:46:38,240 --> 01:46:42,680
Speaker 2: the things that I admire most about you is your discipline,

1995
01:46:43,080 --> 01:46:46,960
Speaker 2: right Like you're you're you have amazing discipline that you're

1996
01:46:47,000 --> 01:46:53,479
Speaker 2: on this incredible you know journey, uh for your body

1997
01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:58,519
Speaker 2: where you know you're eating certain things and at certain

1998
01:46:58,560 --> 01:47:02,160
Speaker 2: times and and you know you're not drinking and right, like,

1999
01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:07,800
Speaker 2: you're amazingly disciplined, I'm not, and it's a it would

2000
01:47:07,800 --> 01:47:10,400
Speaker 2: be a huge week. So if I'm home, I can

2001
01:47:10,479 --> 01:47:12,640
Speaker 2: control myself because I don't keep a lot of the

2002
01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:17,960
Speaker 2: band stuff around, right, But if i'm if I'm at

2003
01:47:18,160 --> 01:47:22,200
Speaker 2: a sports bar, I mean, for I would drink.

2004
01:47:23,680 --> 01:47:27,599
Speaker 3: Twelve beers. You know, maybe not twelve, but I'm all

2005
01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:28,280
Speaker 3: day long.

2006
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:32,160
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not getting drunk, but I'm watching I'm

2007
01:47:32,240 --> 01:47:37,360
Speaker 2: drinking beers, right, I'm just sitting there, I'm ordering wings

2008
01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:41,760
Speaker 2: and cheese, fries and with everything else, and I'm like,

2009
01:47:41,760 --> 01:47:43,840
Speaker 2: oh God, and then I feel horrible. But what I

2010
01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:46,320
Speaker 2: just did, right, as much as I enjoyed it, like,

2011
01:47:46,400 --> 01:47:48,840
Speaker 2: I can't There's no way I consider the bar all

2012
01:47:48,920 --> 01:47:51,679
Speaker 2: day and not have beers and wings and fries.

2013
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 1: The food element of this is difficult for me because,

2014
01:47:55,560 --> 01:47:58,080
Speaker 1: as I've said before, like I'm a Raiders fakers. My

2015
01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:00,080
Speaker 1: dad's a Raiders fan. When I was a kid, he

2016
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:02,479
Speaker 1: would get a dozen donuts and we would we split

2017
01:48:02,479 --> 01:48:05,040
Speaker 1: a dozen double chocolate donuts every every Sunday watch a

2018
01:48:05,120 --> 01:48:07,280
Speaker 1: Raiders game. So when I was on the road, you know,

2019
01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:09,439
Speaker 1: I would send a runner to go get a dozen

2020
01:48:09,560 --> 01:48:12,200
Speaker 1: chocolate donuts, and I would always I would I buy myself,

2021
01:48:12,640 --> 01:48:15,639
Speaker 1: especially every first Sunday of every season. I've always eaten

2022
01:48:15,680 --> 01:48:18,479
Speaker 1: a double a dozen double chocolate donuts and you know,

2023
01:48:18,600 --> 01:48:21,479
Speaker 1: drink three two liter bottles of diet Ruper. That's my

2024
01:48:21,920 --> 01:48:24,720
Speaker 1: game routine. And as the season goes on, sometimes it's

2025
01:48:24,720 --> 01:48:26,720
Speaker 1: not a dozen. Sometimes it's six or eight if I'm

2026
01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:29,200
Speaker 1: feeling less roggy. But I don't remember the last time

2027
01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 1: I went through a Raiders game and didn't try and

2028
01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:33,840
Speaker 1: house a dozen donuts, especially the first game of the season.

2029
01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:36,320
Speaker 1: And tomorrow I will not be doing that. So like that,

2030
01:48:36,320 --> 01:48:39,200
Speaker 1: that is going to be interesting. I usually my feelings,

2031
01:48:39,240 --> 01:48:42,360
Speaker 1: and I usually, like usually I'm good to have a

2032
01:48:42,360 --> 01:48:44,599
Speaker 1: stiff drink at the beginning and the end of the game.

2033
01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:47,479
Speaker 1: That's not in the cards either, So we'll see how

2034
01:48:47,960 --> 01:48:51,600
Speaker 1: a mocktail and a mocktail and grilled chicken serves me

2035
01:48:51,680 --> 01:48:54,880
Speaker 1: during the brain I might be even angrier than usual

2036
01:48:54,920 --> 01:48:56,439
Speaker 1: by the end of the Chargers game.

2037
01:48:57,200 --> 01:48:59,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, that's rough, man.

2038
01:48:59,479 --> 01:49:03,200
Speaker 1: I got my body's already, like my body can already

2039
01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:06,040
Speaker 1: taste the double chocolate duncan, so like it doesn't know

2040
01:49:06,040 --> 01:49:07,080
Speaker 1: what it's gonna do without him.

2041
01:49:07,200 --> 01:49:09,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm gonna do, cousin, Yeah, I dude,

2042
01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:13,479
Speaker 2: I don't know how you uh yeah, I don't know

2043
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:17,920
Speaker 2: what your conditioned. Yeah, we are Pavlov's dog, right, like

2044
01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:19,080
Speaker 2: we're a lot like that.

2045
01:49:19,280 --> 01:49:23,160
Speaker 3: So football, beer, pizza wings.

2046
01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:26,080
Speaker 2: You know, like all my cousins house last night and

2047
01:49:26,479 --> 01:49:28,840
Speaker 2: he had pizza wings and beer.

2048
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:33,680
Speaker 3: So it's perfect, Like you know, I did well.

2049
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:37,439
Speaker 2: I only had We're gonna have one slice of pizza

2050
01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:43,599
Speaker 2: and three wings and one beer. So I did all right,

2051
01:49:44,160 --> 01:49:46,240
Speaker 2: you know, because I'm trying to watch. So I did that.

2052
01:49:46,439 --> 01:49:49,240
Speaker 2: But like there's no way I was gonna have anything right,

2053
01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:53,400
Speaker 2: like you know, so you know, I mean it's gobbles.

2054
01:49:53,400 --> 01:49:55,439
Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna I'm gonna take the first month of

2055
01:49:55,479 --> 01:49:58,480
Speaker 1: the season because everybody says, well, moderation, and I've accomplished

2056
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:00,840
Speaker 1: enough physically at this point that i could have a

2057
01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:02,600
Speaker 1: splurgs day every week. And I don't think, you know,

2058
01:50:02,760 --> 01:50:04,679
Speaker 1: my trainer's not listening to this right now. He would,

2059
01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:07,679
Speaker 1: but he probably wouldn't object too much. But I will

2060
01:50:07,680 --> 01:50:10,240
Speaker 1: say that, like I'm worried that a splurge day on

2061
01:50:10,360 --> 01:50:13,479
Speaker 1: Sunday turns into well Saturday Sunday Monday are splurged, you

2062
01:50:13,520 --> 01:50:15,240
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So I'm gonna take the first

2063
01:50:15,280 --> 01:50:18,160
Speaker 1: month and stay really diligent on Raiders game day and

2064
01:50:18,200 --> 01:50:20,439
Speaker 1: then see where my body, how my body feels. So

2065
01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:22,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, see I say that today, but

2066
01:50:22,920 --> 01:50:25,080
Speaker 1: by next Saturday check in, I might be right back.

2067
01:50:25,360 --> 01:50:25,840
Speaker 1: Do a lot.

2068
01:50:25,920 --> 01:50:26,600
Speaker 3: How you do it?

2069
01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:28,840
Speaker 2: I mean you're at a bar, like you're at a

2070
01:50:28,920 --> 01:50:33,080
Speaker 2: sports We're Buffalo Wild wings just to just to the waitresses,

2071
01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:37,000

2072
01:50:37,120 --> 01:50:41,360
Speaker 2: you you know, I mean, that's like, that's disciplined, Prianna.

2073
01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:46,040
Speaker 2: Could you sit there all day at a sports bar

2074
01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:52,520
Speaker 2: and watch the waitstaff bring uh food after food baskets

2075

01:50:56,439 --> 01:50:57,160
Speaker 9: Absolutely not.

2077
01:50:57,479 --> 01:50:58,439
Speaker 6: No, I couldn't.

2078
01:50:58,479 --> 01:51:00,679
Speaker 3: No, actually, and I I would order.

2079
01:51:00,880 --> 01:51:02,200
Speaker 10: I would like start off and be like, oh, let

2080
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:04,519
Speaker 10: me just get like some cauliflower wings and then maybe

2081
01:51:04,520 --> 01:51:05,960
Speaker 10: a little thing of fries. And then I'm like, well,

2082
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:07,479
Speaker 10: I'm gonna be here for the next two hours. Let

2083
01:51:07,479 --> 01:51:10,439
Speaker 10: me get twelve twelve wings, and then maybe I'll got

2084
01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:13,559
Speaker 10: another thing of fries. Let me get two beers. Yeah, no,

2085
01:51:13,880 --> 01:51:16,920
Speaker 10: I would it would be NonStop, like the.

2086
01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:21,080
Speaker 1: One thing I do right, Like, no, that's the one

2087
01:51:21,080 --> 01:51:23,880
Speaker 1: thing I do want to Oh God, see no, So

2088
01:51:23,920 --> 01:51:25,720
Speaker 1: I eat right before I go out. That way, I'm

2089
01:51:25,720 --> 01:51:28,040
Speaker 1: not as tempted. And then when I sit down at

2090
01:51:28,040 --> 01:51:30,160
Speaker 1: a place like Buffalo wil Wings, if I'm watching a game,

2091
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:32,479
Speaker 1: like if I go to beat Ups tomorrow, the first

2092
01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:35,320
Speaker 1: thing I would do is I will hand the waitress

2093
01:51:35,360 --> 01:51:37,599
Speaker 1: probably forty or fifty bucks and just be like, hey,

2094
01:51:37,600 --> 01:51:39,680
Speaker 1: this is your tip. I'm not going to eat or

2095
01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:41,880
Speaker 1: drink a lot, but I want to know you're taking

2096
01:51:41,920 --> 01:51:43,960
Speaker 1: care of now. If you could just make sure that

2097
01:51:44,000 --> 01:51:45,840
Speaker 1: I have soda water the whole time, that'll keep me

2098
01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:47,920
Speaker 1: on track. And I'm going to have a huge thing

2099
01:51:47,920 --> 01:51:50,040
Speaker 1: of grilled chicken tenders at halftime. I don't want any

2100
01:51:50,040 --> 01:51:51,800
Speaker 1: other food than that. But I always tip her first

2101
01:51:52,040 --> 01:51:54,559
Speaker 1: so that she knows I'm not occupying that seat for nothing.

2102
01:51:54,800 --> 01:51:57,400
Speaker 1: And I usually overtip so that like, because I drink

2103
01:51:57,439 --> 01:51:59,280
Speaker 1: a lot of liquids. That way, you know, I don't know,

2104
01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:00,840
Speaker 1: I might spoilt little bit. Have a diet, so I

2105
01:52:00,880 --> 01:52:02,479
Speaker 1: haven't had a diet so in a long time. Might

2106
01:52:02,479 --> 01:52:04,519
Speaker 1: have a diet so tomorrow, like that could be that

2107
01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:06,760
Speaker 1: could be my splurge. But yeah, I just I want

2108
01:52:06,800 --> 01:52:08,880
Speaker 1: to make sure she knows she's taken care of. But yeah,

2109
01:52:08,920 --> 01:52:09,840
Speaker 1: I know that's where we are.

2110
01:52:09,920 --> 01:52:13,920
Speaker 2: I got, dude, I see beer like I look at

2111
01:52:13,920 --> 01:52:17,840
Speaker 2: the tap gulling and I and I just want to,

2112
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:20,599
Speaker 2: you know, put my mouth on a tap.

2113
01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:21,280
Speaker 3: You know what.

2114
01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:23,960
Speaker 1: I'm like you, I have learned to like some non

2115
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:25,680
Speaker 1: alcoholic beers, but I got to count those in the

2116
01:52:25,680 --> 01:52:27,800
Speaker 1: macros because they still got calories in them. So you know,

2117
01:52:27,840 --> 01:52:29,599
Speaker 1: I got to watch that too, even though it's not

2118
01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:31,720
Speaker 1: care of.

2119
01:52:31,680 --> 01:52:36,160
Speaker 3: Them the greatest. I'm beer dude.

2120
01:52:36,920 --> 01:52:40,479
Speaker 1: This show, this show, it speaks to our differences. Like

2121
01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:42,439
Speaker 1: Cousin like beer is the greatest. I'm like, I'm more

2122
01:52:42,439 --> 01:52:49,200
Speaker 1: of an espresso Martin. You guy like nice little I can.

2123
01:52:51,240 --> 01:52:54,040
Speaker 3: Listen. I so you won't do any beers.

2124
01:52:54,400 --> 01:52:57,519
Speaker 1: No, So the funny thing is this non alcoholic journey

2125
01:52:57,800 --> 01:53:01,280
Speaker 1: when you're drinking no never, Guinness was the only beer

2126
01:53:01,320 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 1: I ever drank, and I didn't. I rarely drank that,

2127
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:05,240
Speaker 1: so when I was drinking, it was always expressed with

2128
01:53:05,240 --> 01:53:08,120
Speaker 1: Martinez and old fashions or and then after a couple

2129
01:53:08,160 --> 01:53:09,960
Speaker 1: of those, you just go straight whiskey on the rocks

2130
01:53:10,000 --> 01:53:13,800
Speaker 1: like that. That's always been more my speed. I'm out

2131
01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:15,680
Speaker 1: on Jack Daniels because I drank too much of it

2132
01:53:15,720 --> 01:53:17,840
Speaker 1: for too much of my life, and beer has just

2133
01:53:17,880 --> 01:53:20,320
Speaker 1: never been a flavor I like. But in this now

2134
01:53:20,520 --> 01:53:23,120
Speaker 1: non alcoholic journey, because that's the only option I've had

2135
01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:25,360
Speaker 1: some places I've had it, and I actually have learned

2136
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:27,519
Speaker 1: to really like it. Like Athletic is a company in

2137
01:53:27,520 --> 01:53:30,320
Speaker 1: Connecticut that they're everywhere now, but Athletic makes really good

2138
01:53:30,360 --> 01:53:33,479
Speaker 1: like they taste good, they taste and Guinness getness non

2139
01:53:33,520 --> 01:53:36,439
Speaker 1: alcoholic tastes just like regular guinness. So I find myself

2140
01:53:36,520 --> 01:53:39,519
Speaker 1: enjoying beer more now mostly because I don't. I just don't.

2141
01:53:40,560 --> 01:53:42,639
Speaker 2: I love it, you name it, I like, I can find.

2142
01:53:43,120 --> 01:53:46,920
Speaker 2: It's something I like with just about any beer. I'll

2143
01:53:46,960 --> 01:53:51,680
Speaker 2: be honest with you, respect that. But again, but then

2144
01:53:51,760 --> 01:53:57,479
Speaker 2: I like gin and I like tequila, right, So yeah, it's.

2145
01:53:57,280 --> 01:53:59,720
Speaker 3: Not like I don't want I like it all. I

2146
01:53:59,840 --> 01:54:00,240
Speaker 3: like at all.

2147
01:54:00,439 --> 01:54:03,040
Speaker 2: The only thing I won't drink is vodka, right, that's

2148
01:54:03,080 --> 01:54:05,280
Speaker 2: it because it's bad experience back in the day.

2149
01:54:05,680 --> 01:54:06,720
Speaker 3: But that's really it.

2150
01:54:06,920 --> 01:54:11,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I enjoyed my spirits cocktails, but beers. Like

2151
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:13,800
Speaker 2: if I'm at a bar like during the day, I'm

2152
01:54:13,840 --> 01:54:17,720
Speaker 2: not drinking cocktails during the day, you know, unless it's

2153
01:54:17,760 --> 01:54:21,200
Speaker 2: happy hour, right, but if I'm watching a game, I'm

2154
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:22,719
Speaker 2: usually you know, I'll drink a beer.

2155
01:54:23,920 --> 01:54:26,519
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna talk about the games. And I

2156
01:54:26,520 --> 01:54:27,720
Speaker 1: got it straight into to toe.

2157
01:54:28,120 --> 01:54:29,640
Speaker 3: You got me, yeah, and then you got me.

2158
01:54:29,800 --> 01:54:36,640
Speaker 2: Now I'm like visualizing the twenty ounce cold beer and

2159
01:54:36,680 --> 01:54:40,320
Speaker 2: it's like, what time is it. It's seven forty two

2160
01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:43,840
Speaker 2: here on the East Coast. I'm like, you know, just

2161
01:54:43,960 --> 01:54:46,400
Speaker 2: like this is my problem. I'm thinking about it. I

2162
01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:48,160
Speaker 2: go I can go for a bit like right now,

2163
01:54:48,560 --> 01:54:53,120
Speaker 2: Like if you if you put a cold twenty ounce

2164
01:54:53,240 --> 01:54:57,600
Speaker 2: I don't care what in a Guinness medello hein, I

2165
01:54:57,600 --> 01:54:59,960
Speaker 2: don't care what it is. I would I would drink it,

2166
01:55:00,760 --> 01:55:02,720
Speaker 2: you know, not to get drapped just because it would

2167
01:55:02,760 --> 01:55:05,360
Speaker 2: taste good. Because we just got done talking about it.

2168
01:55:06,120 --> 01:55:10,520
Speaker 2: Where the fellas, you got amazing discipline, God bless you.

2169
01:55:11,080 --> 01:55:15,200
Speaker 2: As we hang out the games we go through them.

2170
01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:20,680
Speaker 2: Coming up next right here at Fox Sports Radio, fellas

2171
01:55:21,360 --> 01:55:25,720
Speaker 2: Jason Fitz Anthony Gargan hanging out game day, College game

2172
01:55:25,800 --> 01:55:32,080
Speaker 2: Day today. Two big games you talked about earlier Michigan. Oh, man,

2173
01:55:32,360 --> 01:55:37,680
Speaker 2: Michigan's in for it. They are an underdog at home. Now,

2174
01:55:37,680 --> 01:55:38,480
Speaker 2: who would have thought?

2175
01:55:38,640 --> 01:55:39,040
Speaker 3: FITSI?

2176
01:55:39,200 --> 01:55:45,360
Speaker 2: Right then, here you are an underdog at home, big house,

2177
01:55:45,760 --> 01:55:50,200
Speaker 2: and you just go I can't even imagine them beating Texas.

2178
01:55:50,880 --> 01:55:53,880
Speaker 2: I just don't see it. I don't see it. I

2179
01:55:53,960 --> 01:55:57,520
Speaker 2: see at Texas route as you do. Uh, that's the

2180
01:55:57,520 --> 01:56:00,400
Speaker 2: big newde kickoff on Fox. We talked about that. We

2181
01:56:00,440 --> 01:56:03,520
Speaker 2: talked about the last the first two games of the

2182
01:56:03,600 --> 01:56:07,880
Speaker 2: NFL card. Of course, the Chiefs looking great, the aighty

2183
01:56:07,920 --> 01:56:13,880
Speaker 2: reads new toy, the Xavier worthy, and of course afterwards,

2184
01:56:14,120 --> 01:56:18,200
Speaker 2: uh did you hear the Ravens after the game, Fitsy

2185
01:56:19,200 --> 01:56:22,680
Speaker 2: and Isaiah likely said well, if that's the best.

2186
01:56:22,440 --> 01:56:26,720
Speaker 3: They got, we'll see them in the playoffs. Like okay, cause.

2187
01:56:28,920 --> 01:56:31,240
Speaker 1: I just don't even understand the point of the comment either,

2188
01:56:31,360 --> 01:56:34,320
Speaker 1: because at some point you just gave them the best

2189
01:56:34,320 --> 01:56:37,640
Speaker 1: you got, and that's that's what it was like. Both

2190
01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:40,280
Speaker 1: of those teams went into that game wanting to make

2191
01:56:40,320 --> 01:56:43,480
Speaker 1: a statement and one of them want to revenge. Well,

2192
01:56:43,840 --> 01:56:46,920
Speaker 1: they didn't get it right, And if you're Baltimore, you

2193
01:56:46,960 --> 01:56:49,800
Speaker 1: came out with an offense that I had heavy expectations

2194
01:56:49,840 --> 01:56:52,880
Speaker 1: for and instead, you know, Derreck Henry ends up with

2195
01:56:52,920 --> 01:56:55,440
Speaker 1: only thirteen carries, which I thought was, you know, under

2196
01:56:55,440 --> 01:56:58,480
Speaker 1: where that should have been. Isaiah likely was really the

2197
01:56:58,520 --> 01:57:00,600
Speaker 1: only threat that they used on the offensive side of

2198
01:57:00,600 --> 01:57:04,000
Speaker 1: the ball, and Lamar ran around everywhere. And you could say, well, first.

2199
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:09,800
Speaker 2: Like he had Flowers, like Flowers is a great player,

2200
01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:12,680
Speaker 2: he missed them like when sometimes when he's a erratic man,

2201
01:57:14,040 --> 01:57:15,800
Speaker 2: certainly missed them last drive.

2202
01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:19,800
Speaker 1: But I also felt like if the argument was, well,

2203
01:57:19,840 --> 01:57:21,560
Speaker 1: they just need a little time to get things together

2204
01:57:21,600 --> 01:57:24,280
Speaker 1: and get things right. Okay, now let's flash forward to

2205
01:57:24,280 --> 01:57:27,280
Speaker 1: what the Eagles look like offensively. And even though we

2206
01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:30,000
Speaker 1: talked about the fact that there was some rough moments

2207
01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:33,080
Speaker 1: and some raticness from Jalen Hurts, like you saw the

2208
01:57:33,080 --> 01:57:35,680
Speaker 1: Eagles offense and you walked away from it and said, Okay,

2209
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:38,680
Speaker 1: I understand how dynamic this is. I understand what they're

2210
01:57:38,720 --> 01:57:41,040
Speaker 1: doing with Saquon. I understand that they'll be able to

2211
01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:43,680
Speaker 1: beat you at every level. I understand that this defense

2212
01:57:43,760 --> 01:57:46,280
Speaker 1: is going to take smarter this offense, I should say,

2213
01:57:46,280 --> 01:57:49,240
Speaker 1: he's going to take smart defensive coordinators with a really

2214
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:51,560
Speaker 1: good game plan to be able to even slow them down.

2215
01:57:51,800 --> 01:57:54,160
Speaker 1: I didn't walk away from that the same level of

2216
01:57:54,200 --> 01:57:57,360
Speaker 1: confidence with Baltimore. Now again we both love and trust

2217
01:57:57,440 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 1: the Spags as a defensive coordinator. Hear all of that,

2218
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:03,680
Speaker 1: but man, I expected the Ravens to come out and

2219
01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:06,480
Speaker 1: really show the world, hey, you can't if you stop.

2220
01:58:06,520 --> 01:58:08,640
Speaker 1: If you stop, say then you're not gonna be able

2221
01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:10,520
Speaker 1: to stop Derrick Henry. And it wasn't that at all.

2222
01:58:10,560 --> 01:58:13,360
Speaker 1: It just it just never really got on track. I

2223
01:58:13,400 --> 01:58:14,400
Speaker 1: never really got in rhythm.

2224
01:58:14,840 --> 01:58:14,880
Speaker 8: No.

2225
01:58:15,960 --> 01:58:23,240
Speaker 4: And you mentioned last night, man Sequon Wow' smashing debut

2226
01:58:24,240 --> 01:58:26,360
Speaker 4: for se Kwon Barkley.

2227
01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:33,520
Speaker 2: Three touchdowns just looked incredible. My god, did he looked

2228
01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:38,960
Speaker 2: the It's imagine how happy he is that he gets

2229
01:58:38,960 --> 01:58:42,480
Speaker 2: to play on a team with a legit with two

2230
01:58:42,640 --> 01:58:45,600
Speaker 2: legit receivers.

2231
01:58:44,960 --> 01:58:46,040
Speaker 3: Right a tight end.

2232
01:58:46,960 --> 01:58:51,040
Speaker 2: A quarterback who's a real quarterback needs to play better,

2233
01:58:51,160 --> 01:58:56,600
Speaker 2: but he's a real quarterback like uh oh, Manquon the

2234
01:58:56,600 --> 01:58:57,920
Speaker 2: happiest man on Earth today.

2235
01:58:58,920 --> 01:59:00,480
Speaker 1: Man, of those chump cuts. I know it was a

2236
01:59:00,480 --> 01:59:03,080
Speaker 1: slick field, but those jump cuts were just how do

2237
01:59:03,120 --> 01:59:06,200
Speaker 1: you stop that? And now all we're gonna be thinking

2238
01:59:06,200 --> 01:59:10,520
Speaker 1: about all year if this continues is Wow, Remember hard

2239
01:59:10,600 --> 01:59:12,960
Speaker 1: knocks when the Giants decided what the value was and

2240
01:59:13,040 --> 01:59:15,440
Speaker 1: decided nobody should give it to him like that. That

2241
01:59:15,520 --> 01:59:20,000
Speaker 1: looks gonna get worse and worse and worse every single

2242
01:59:20,040 --> 01:59:24,040
Speaker 1: week when doing this. So shame on the Giants right now.

2243
01:59:24,080 --> 01:59:25,960
Speaker 1: If it's only one game, but right now, shame.

2244
01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:29,640
Speaker 2: If I was Mara, I would be freaking out. I

2245
01:59:29,680 --> 01:59:33,360
Speaker 2: would be pissed off. Man, are you kidding me?

2246
01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:36,000
Speaker 1: I'd just be sending Joe Shane like a dot dot

2247
01:59:36,080 --> 01:59:38,360
Speaker 1: dot text. That's it, just dot dot dot. Just ay

2283
02:01:52,120 --> 02:01:54,560
Speaker 2: main toty from Chesapeake old saquand up with me. So

2284
02:01:55,560 --> 02:01:57,240
Speaker 2: I was just gushing some more. I had to gush

2285
02:01:57,240 --> 02:02:01,240
Speaker 2: a little bit more, all right, So let's get into it.

2286
02:02:01,440 --> 02:02:06,040
Speaker 2: Let's get into what's gonna happen tomorrow. This is the

2287
02:02:06,040 --> 02:02:08,960
Speaker 2: first full day of the NFL season, so let's take

2288
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:12,120
Speaker 2: a look at it from a betting standpoint and from

2289
02:02:12,200 --> 02:02:19,080
Speaker 2: a fantasy standpoint as well. So let's start off Arizona

2290
02:02:19,120 --> 02:02:24,640
Speaker 2: and the Bills. The Bills six and a half point favorites.

2291
02:02:25,400 --> 02:02:28,120
Speaker 2: This would be interesting. There's a lot of people that

2292
02:02:28,480 --> 02:02:34,840
Speaker 2: like Arizona. I don't, and I do think the Bills roll.

2293
02:02:35,760 --> 02:02:38,600
Speaker 1: I don't like Arizona's defense at all. And the Bills

2294
02:02:38,600 --> 02:02:40,760
Speaker 1: are gonna roll. Here in Dalton, Kakad's gonna have a

2295
02:02:40,760 --> 02:02:43,280
Speaker 1: big game, hammer of the over on his yardage because

2296
02:02:43,600 --> 02:02:45,640
Speaker 1: you know, frankly, much has been made about this, but

2297
02:02:45,720 --> 02:02:47,720
Speaker 1: let's be real. There aren't a lot of guys on

2298
02:02:47,720 --> 02:02:50,240
Speaker 1: that roster that have caught any passes from Josh Allen,

2299
02:02:50,480 --> 02:02:52,480
Speaker 1: and I've talked to Josh at this point for Yahoo

2300
02:02:52,480 --> 02:02:56,000
Speaker 1: probably four times this offseason, and it was interesting because

2301
02:02:56,000 --> 02:02:58,200
Speaker 1: he was pretty open. The first time we talked about

2302
02:02:58,200 --> 02:03:00,520
Speaker 1: the fact that none of them really to each other,

2303
02:03:00,560 --> 02:03:02,600
Speaker 1: and each time he's talked about the building chemistry. But

2304
02:03:02,640 --> 02:03:04,560
Speaker 1: I think last week when I talked to him, he

2305
02:03:04,560 --> 02:03:06,480
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time talking about Dalton. I think

2306
02:03:06,520 --> 02:03:08,280
Speaker 1: Dalton is going to be used in the beginning of

2307
02:03:08,280 --> 02:03:11,000
Speaker 1: this while they build it a lot, like you know, Kelsey,

2308
02:03:11,520 --> 02:03:14,360
Speaker 1: when you know Kansas City needs that, that guy Dalton

2309
02:03:14,400 --> 02:03:16,760
Speaker 1: kin K is gonna get big numbers. Arizona's defense is

2310
02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:19,040
Speaker 1: just gonna be awful this year. I think their offense

2311
02:03:19,040 --> 02:03:20,840
Speaker 1: can be fun, but their defense is going to be awful.

2312
02:03:20,840 --> 02:03:23,080
Speaker 1: I think the Bills roll here, and the reason people

2313
02:03:23,080 --> 02:03:25,920
Speaker 1: are high on Arizona over them is just because we've

2314
02:03:25,920 --> 02:03:28,120
Speaker 1: got that anti Bills narrative that will be gone by

2315
02:03:28,160 --> 02:03:32,160
Speaker 1: week six. So on on in on Buffalo.

2316
02:03:32,240 --> 02:03:34,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, we see it the same way, man, I I

2317
02:03:35,280 --> 02:03:38,360
Speaker 2: and I think they. I mean They're going to run, run, run,

2318
02:03:38,360 --> 02:03:40,880
Speaker 2: and run right through them. I'm a big Cook fan,

2319
02:03:41,000 --> 02:03:42,600
Speaker 2: so I.

2320
02:03:43,240 --> 02:03:46,080
Speaker 1: You know what speak you speak a cook. I just

2321
02:03:46,120 --> 02:03:47,880
Speaker 1: want to put on everybody's radar by the end of

2322
02:03:47,880 --> 02:03:50,520
Speaker 1: the year. I think Ray Davis, sweet baby ray Is

2323
02:03:50,560 --> 02:03:52,160
Speaker 1: I like to call him from Kentucky, the running back

2324
02:03:52,200 --> 02:03:54,200
Speaker 1: they drafted. I think he has a chance to also

2325
02:03:54,240 --> 02:03:56,560
Speaker 1: be really good so late in the year, he's somebody

2326
02:03:56,600 --> 02:03:57,360
Speaker 1: that I keep an eye on.

2327
02:03:58,320 --> 02:03:59,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like it.

2328
02:04:01,280 --> 02:04:08,040
Speaker 2: Cincinnati and New England as the post Belichick, Oh my,

2329
02:04:09,040 --> 02:04:17,240
Speaker 2: the post Belichick era begins. Now listen, I do think

2330
02:04:17,320 --> 02:04:20,720
Speaker 2: Drake May's got some ability. The rest of that team

2331
02:04:21,280 --> 02:04:27,200
Speaker 2: is tragically bad, but you know, I mean, you gotta start.

2332
02:04:27,280 --> 02:04:28,920
Speaker 2: They're starting down low.

2333
02:04:30,080 --> 02:04:32,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's that's the real of it. Like New

2334
02:04:32,200 --> 02:04:34,520
Speaker 1: England's the worst team right now, they're the worst roster.

2335
02:04:34,960 --> 02:04:36,720
Speaker 1: They're going to have the worst season in the NFL,

2336
02:04:36,760 --> 02:04:39,760
Speaker 1: I believe, And the question is just they're gonna have

2337
02:04:39,760 --> 02:04:42,240
Speaker 1: the type of season that a lot of coaches don't survive,

2338
02:04:42,360 --> 02:04:45,120
Speaker 1: especially coaches replacing legends. But Jerod Mayo and his pre

2339
02:04:45,200 --> 02:04:48,600
Speaker 1: existing exists relationship with Robert Kraft gonna make a big

2340
02:04:48,640 --> 02:04:51,760
Speaker 1: difference in this. So I feel good about where they're

2341
02:04:51,800 --> 02:04:53,840
Speaker 1: gonna be. I feel fine about where they're gonna be

2342
02:04:53,840 --> 02:04:56,160
Speaker 1: building towards if they can do it patiently. I think

2343
02:04:56,240 --> 02:04:58,680
Speaker 1: Drake may hasn't a chance to be very good. I

2344
02:04:58,680 --> 02:05:01,000
Speaker 1: also would not play Drake Maye for a single snap

2345
02:05:01,040 --> 02:05:03,760
Speaker 1: behind that just horrid offensive line this year if I

2346
02:05:03,760 --> 02:05:06,360
Speaker 1: can avoid it. Let everybody else take the hits and

2347
02:05:06,440 --> 02:05:09,760
Speaker 1: keep Drake may safe and start planning for next year.

2348
02:05:09,840 --> 02:05:12,160
Speaker 1: Win three games, go get yourself the first pick in

2349
02:05:12,200 --> 02:05:13,520
Speaker 1: the draft, and then see what you want to do

2350
02:05:13,560 --> 02:05:13,960
Speaker 1: from there.

2351
02:05:14,520 --> 02:05:22,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I'm completely with you. Meanwhile, Cincinnati, you gotta

2352
02:05:22,480 --> 02:05:25,480
Speaker 2: hope you know this is it, Like you know, Borrow's healthy,

2353
02:05:27,120 --> 02:05:31,120
Speaker 2: chasing folds, you know, I like you like Chase brown Man.

2354
02:05:31,520 --> 02:05:35,400
Speaker 2: All he does is just make big plays like he

2355
02:05:35,640 --> 02:05:37,920
Speaker 2: You know, I don't care how many touches, how few

2356
02:05:38,000 --> 02:05:40,520
Speaker 2: touches he makes an impact on a game.

2357
02:05:42,040 --> 02:05:46,320
Speaker 1: That's a really good, good point by you that it's

2358
02:05:46,600 --> 02:05:49,000
Speaker 1: not about volume for him. It's just about the fact

2359
02:05:49,040 --> 02:05:50,680
Speaker 1: that when he gets those touches, he can make the

2360
02:05:50,720 --> 02:05:53,320
Speaker 1: most of them. I think that's absolutely I think he's

2361
02:05:53,520 --> 02:05:55,440
Speaker 1: he's in line to have a big game. I think

2362
02:05:55,440 --> 02:05:57,000
Speaker 1: he's in lined up to be a bigger part of

2363
02:05:57,040 --> 02:05:58,440
Speaker 1: this offense or at the course of the season. And

2364
02:05:58,600 --> 02:06:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm really interested to see, Frank what this offense looks like.

2365
02:06:01,840 --> 02:06:04,800
Speaker 1: Rigawise because we know that if Jamar plays, he's going

2366
02:06:04,880 --> 02:06:08,440
Speaker 1: to be limited, right, So they have put so much

2367
02:06:08,440 --> 02:06:11,200
Speaker 1: on the shoulders of Joe Burrow this year. The belief

2368
02:06:11,200 --> 02:06:13,240
Speaker 1: in Joe Burrow is so astounding that we're not talking

2369
02:06:13,240 --> 02:06:16,120
Speaker 1: about that enough. I do think the Bengals, if things

2370
02:06:16,160 --> 02:06:19,240
Speaker 1: don't go right with Jamar quickly, they can be doing

2371
02:06:19,280 --> 02:06:21,080
Speaker 1: a little bit more of a heavy lift than we expected.

2372
02:06:21,160 --> 02:06:22,920
Speaker 1: And in a year where I think the Super Bowl

2373
02:06:23,000 --> 02:06:25,280
Speaker 1: is sort of the ceiling, I don't want to know

2374
02:06:25,320 --> 02:06:27,240
Speaker 1: what the floor is if they don't get wide receiver

2375
02:06:27,320 --> 02:06:29,720
Speaker 1: production from Higgins and Chase, Like the reason you kept

2376
02:06:29,760 --> 02:06:31,520
Speaker 1: all this together was to get that this year. So

2377
02:06:31,560 --> 02:06:33,879
Speaker 1: if they don't, it's going to be a disaster for everybody.

2378
02:06:34,400 --> 02:06:39,840
Speaker 2: Yep, yep, yep, yep. All right, let's looking. You're looking

2379
02:06:39,960 --> 02:06:45,320
Speaker 2: live at the Meadowlands in North Jersey where the Giants

2380
02:06:45,400 --> 02:06:53,280
Speaker 2: kick off their one hundredth season hosting Minnesota. And I

2381
02:06:53,560 --> 02:06:58,680
Speaker 2: look at them and just say, ew, I just don't

2382
02:06:58,800 --> 02:07:01,880
Speaker 2: know how, I don't know how good. I look at

2383
02:07:01,880 --> 02:07:04,920
Speaker 2: that Giants team and I just don't like them.

2384
02:07:05,120 --> 02:07:06,720
Speaker 3: I don't like them a little bit.

2385
02:07:08,160 --> 02:07:11,920
Speaker 1: No, the Giants, Frankly, this this is gonna be a long,

2386
02:07:11,960 --> 02:07:15,800
Speaker 1: hard year for them, and Minnesota doesn't have a quarterback

2387
02:07:15,840 --> 02:07:17,760
Speaker 1: that I believe in. I think two things can be true.

2388
02:07:18,040 --> 02:07:20,080
Speaker 1: I think Minnesota can win this football game, and I

2389
02:07:20,080 --> 02:07:22,080
Speaker 1: think it also means we can all calm down on

2390
02:07:22,120 --> 02:07:24,440
Speaker 1: the Sam Darnold. It belongs as a starter in this league.

2391
02:07:24,440 --> 02:07:28,320
Speaker 1: Talk that's inevitably gonna happen. Like, Minnesota has a head

2392
02:07:28,320 --> 02:07:32,080
Speaker 1: coach that I think gets good amount of credit and

2393
02:07:32,120 --> 02:07:34,600
Speaker 1: deserves even more for what he can do with the quarterbacks.

2394
02:07:34,680 --> 02:07:38,080
Speaker 1: So they're gonna be fine, and they they Minnesota's gonna

2395
02:07:38,080 --> 02:07:39,840
Speaker 1: be a harder out this year than I think a

2396
02:07:39,840 --> 02:07:42,000
Speaker 1: lot of people want them to be. The Giants are not.

2397
02:07:42,600 --> 02:07:45,280
Speaker 1: The Giants might as well just roll over there. If

2398
02:07:45,280 --> 02:07:47,800
Speaker 1: New England is a surefire for the first pick, in

2399
02:07:47,800 --> 02:07:49,200
Speaker 1: my mind, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the

2400
02:07:49,200 --> 02:07:51,280
Speaker 1: Giants have the second. That's how bad I think they're gonna.

2401
02:07:51,080 --> 02:07:52,680
Speaker 2: Be there, I know, I mean, I want to touch

2402
02:07:52,720 --> 02:07:55,880
Speaker 2: the game there. It's two point favorite. I kind of

2403
02:07:55,960 --> 02:07:59,520
Speaker 2: like the under. It's forty one and a half and

2404
02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:02,080
Speaker 2: see this game going under.

2405
02:08:04,160 --> 02:08:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I like unders, by the way, usually in Week

2406
02:08:07,360 --> 02:08:10,520
Speaker 1: one anyway, but that one particularly.

2407
02:08:10,040 --> 02:08:15,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, the game early game that I'm fascinated by

2408
02:08:15,280 --> 02:08:19,880
Speaker 2: and I can't wait to watch is Tennessee and Chicago,

2409
02:08:21,400 --> 02:08:26,440
Speaker 2: So we get all kinds of this is gonna be fun, Man,

2410
02:08:27,200 --> 02:08:30,480
Speaker 2: this is gonna be great. You get to see the

2411
02:08:30,720 --> 02:08:37,000
Speaker 2: much weighted debut of Caleb Williams. Man, I mean, you're

2412
02:08:37,200 --> 02:08:43,000
Speaker 2: Chicago and you've been quarterbacks starved your entire lives, right,

2413
02:08:43,160 --> 02:08:48,280
Speaker 2: generations of Bears fans who've had no quarterback, who've had

2414
02:08:48,320 --> 02:08:52,960
Speaker 2: to deal with the memories of Jay Cutler, right, and

2415
02:08:53,520 --> 02:09:00,440
Speaker 2: Jim McMahon Dave had nothing, no quarterbacks, one bad one

2416
02:09:00,600 --> 02:09:05,560
Speaker 2: after another, and they finally get this wonder kid.

2417
02:09:06,200 --> 02:09:07,760
Speaker 3: It's a great story.

2418
02:09:09,000 --> 02:09:11,400
Speaker 1: It is, and I think it's a sneaky like. I

2419
02:09:11,440 --> 02:09:13,720
Speaker 1: love that you mentioned this game because I think this

2420
02:09:13,800 --> 02:09:17,280
Speaker 1: is the toughest to predict and maybe most interesting non

2421
02:09:18,040 --> 02:09:21,320
Speaker 1: you know, dynamic billboard game of the entire weekend, and

2422
02:09:21,680 --> 02:09:25,120
Speaker 1: large part because there's such a level of unsurety from

2423
02:09:25,120 --> 02:09:28,280
Speaker 1: both sides, right, Like, if you look at the Titans

2424
02:09:28,520 --> 02:09:31,160
Speaker 1: and you look at the way that this organization is

2425
02:09:31,200 --> 02:09:33,760
Speaker 1: built this year, I don't think anybody has any idea

2426
02:09:34,080 --> 02:09:37,400
Speaker 1: what to expect, right, So we don't know who Brian

2427
02:09:37,480 --> 02:09:39,600
Speaker 1: Callahan is as coach. We have no idea. He wasn't

2428
02:09:39,600 --> 02:09:41,520
Speaker 1: even the play caller in Cincinnati, so we don't really

2429
02:09:41,560 --> 02:09:43,720
Speaker 1: know what his offense is going to look like. We

2430
02:09:43,760 --> 02:09:46,160
Speaker 1: don't know what it's going to be when they when

2431
02:09:46,160 --> 02:09:48,440
Speaker 1: they piece it together. We don't know how this staff

2432
02:09:48,520 --> 02:09:51,440
Speaker 1: is going to approach anything. The adage around the league,

2433
02:09:51,440 --> 02:09:53,920
Speaker 1: if you talk to people that follow it, is that

2434
02:09:54,600 --> 02:09:56,320
Speaker 1: the first week of the season, you have about a

2435
02:09:56,360 --> 02:09:59,640
Speaker 1: twenty percent and that twenty percent is things that nobody's

2436
02:09:59,640 --> 02:10:02,320
Speaker 1: ever seen before. So you have twenty percent new. In

2437
02:10:02,400 --> 02:10:06,520
Speaker 1: this particular case, you're talking about an all new staff.

2438
02:10:07,280 --> 02:10:09,600
Speaker 1: I think you're talking about forty percent new from the

2439
02:10:09,600 --> 02:10:11,600
Speaker 1: Titans at least. Like all of this is so hard

2440
02:10:11,600 --> 02:10:15,360
Speaker 1: to predict. So you've got a first time head coach

2441
02:10:15,480 --> 02:10:18,400
Speaker 1: coming in and a first time defensive coordinator at first,

2442
02:10:18,400 --> 02:10:21,760
Speaker 1: like all of this just screams first time. So for Caleb,

2443
02:10:22,040 --> 02:10:24,080
Speaker 1: he's coming into an NFL game where it's not like

2444
02:10:24,120 --> 02:10:25,520
Speaker 1: he can just sit there and watch film and know

2445
02:10:25,560 --> 02:10:28,720
Speaker 1: what to expect. They're really genuinely gonna have to adjust

2446
02:10:28,760 --> 02:10:30,920
Speaker 1: on the fly as they go and there's gonna be

2447
02:10:30,920 --> 02:10:34,360
Speaker 1: a huge test for Caleb's processing and when if it

2448
02:10:34,400 --> 02:10:36,040
Speaker 1: doesn't go well, there's gonna be a lot of people

2449
02:10:36,080 --> 02:10:37,760
Speaker 1: that freak out and say, well, the Titans aren't that good,

2450
02:10:37,760 --> 02:10:40,560
Speaker 1: why didn't he play better? Without acknowledging the context that,

2451
02:10:41,200 --> 02:10:43,760
Speaker 1: my god, like, you've got a defensive backs coach from

2452
02:10:43,760 --> 02:10:46,080
Speaker 1: the Ravens that's now running that defense. Is he gonna

2453
02:10:46,120 --> 02:10:48,280
Speaker 1: run it the same way that you know the Ravens

2454
02:10:48,320 --> 02:10:50,520
Speaker 1: ran their defense when he was there, We don't know.

2455
02:10:50,760 --> 02:10:54,040
Speaker 1: Could look wildly different. So I think Caleb's got a

2456
02:10:54,120 --> 02:10:56,520
Speaker 1: heavy lift week one, and this could be a really

2457
02:10:56,560 --> 02:10:57,240
Speaker 1: interesting game.

2458
02:10:57,800 --> 02:11:00,360
Speaker 3: Agreed. I'm looking really looking forward to it.

2459
02:11:01,120 --> 02:11:05,560
Speaker 2: What are these names, dude, we talked about McMahon, Jim Harball,

2460
02:11:06,480 --> 02:11:17,320
Speaker 2: Eric Kramer, Mitch Trabisky, Cutler, Kyle Orton, Cave McNown, Jim Miller, Fields,

2461
02:11:17,840 --> 02:11:26,200
Speaker 2: Craig Krenzel, Shane Matthews, Steve Walls, Dave Craig, Oh my god,

2462
02:11:26,600 --> 02:11:27,920
Speaker 2: Mike Tom Zach.

2463
02:11:28,560 --> 02:11:29,880
Speaker 3: Nick Foles.

2464
02:11:30,560 --> 02:11:35,640
Speaker 2: I mean our man Mighty Mark, who, along with Breonna

2465
02:11:35,720 --> 02:11:37,080
Speaker 2: doing a great job producing.

2466
02:11:37,160 --> 02:11:39,560
Speaker 3: Mighty Mark is from Chicago.

2467
02:11:40,240 --> 02:11:45,480
Speaker 2: Dude, you grew up with all these dretched quarterbacks.

2468
02:11:45,520 --> 02:11:49,040
Speaker 9: Rex Grossman. He got me to the what he got us,

2469
02:11:49,080 --> 02:11:54,520
Speaker 9: not me, got the team to the Super Bowl. But

2470
02:11:54,720 --> 02:11:57,400
Speaker 9: because he wasn't a kid that know how to play

2471
02:11:57,440 --> 02:11:59,440
Speaker 9: in the rain. He couldn't throw a pass while it

2472
02:11:59,520 --> 02:12:02,960
Speaker 9: was raining. But you know, someone else knew how to

2473
02:12:03,160 --> 02:12:05,560
Speaker 9: play the raign and win a Super Bowl.

2474
02:12:05,920 --> 02:12:08,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, dude, I feel for you. Man. You've had

2475
02:12:08,760 --> 02:12:15,440
Speaker 3: to deal with a lot of bad quarterback Vince Evans,

2476
02:12:16,080 --> 02:12:17,680
Speaker 3: Vince Avins waw.

2477
02:12:18,200 --> 02:12:22,720
Speaker 1: Former Raider legend. Uh yeah, but think about it now,

2478
02:12:23,040 --> 02:12:24,800
Speaker 1: if you got this right, and I think Kayleb Williams

2479
02:12:24,800 --> 02:12:26,680
Speaker 1: is just going to be great. If you're a Bears

2480
02:12:26,720 --> 02:12:29,240
Speaker 1: fan and you got this right in the modern NFL,

2481
02:12:29,280 --> 02:12:32,200
Speaker 1: that means for the next fifteen years, you got a quarterback.

2482
02:12:32,240 --> 02:12:34,600
Speaker 1: You can believe it, for the next fifteen years.

2483
02:12:34,760 --> 02:12:36,720
Speaker 3: I much hope for their sake that they that it

2484
02:12:36,760 --> 02:12:37,280
Speaker 3: works out.

2485
02:12:37,760 --> 02:12:39,600
Speaker 1: I think, look, I think it's good for the league

2486
02:12:39,640 --> 02:12:40,200
Speaker 1: if it works out.

2487
02:12:42,200 --> 02:12:43,360
Speaker 3: I liked the kid the whole thing.

2488
02:12:43,480 --> 02:12:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just talking about I feel I always feel

2489
02:12:46,720 --> 02:12:51,320
Speaker 2: for fan bases like I have empathy for certain fan bases,

2490
02:12:52,160 --> 02:12:56,720
Speaker 2: like if you've never had a quarterback, like you're and

2491
02:12:56,760 --> 02:12:59,440
Speaker 2: you're in Chicago and you look around you and your

2492
02:12:59,760 --> 02:13:04,400
Speaker 2: arch rival the Packers, and the Packers go from you know,

2493
02:13:04,680 --> 02:13:09,360
Speaker 2: Bart Star to Brett farre to Aaron Rodgers to.

2494
02:13:09,520 --> 02:13:13,440
Speaker 3: Love like you've had it, you know, like I feel

2495
02:13:13,480 --> 02:13:14,320
Speaker 3: for the Bears people.

2496
02:13:14,600 --> 02:13:18,200
Speaker 9: All those teams every season when they had a quarterback,

2497
02:13:18,320 --> 02:13:22,640
Speaker 9: they had basic hopes of at least making a plan

2498
02:13:22,760 --> 02:13:25,120
Speaker 9: to get to a playoff game, whether they lost a

2499
02:13:25,120 --> 02:13:29,800
Speaker 9: playoff game, but you had great hopes that your quarterback

2500
02:13:30,640 --> 02:13:34,120
Speaker 9: could maintain run the ship and get you places to

2501
02:13:34,200 --> 02:13:36,680
Speaker 9: make you happy and make you want to buy tickets

2502
02:13:36,680 --> 02:13:38,760
Speaker 9: and make you want to buy stuff. So there was

2503
02:13:38,800 --> 02:13:42,320
Speaker 9: all this that hopefulness that you had a quarterback. So

2504
02:13:42,560 --> 02:13:47,680
Speaker 9: now that the Bears potentially have somebody to run the

2505
02:13:47,760 --> 02:13:51,400
Speaker 9: team and run the offense, it's, you know, great dreams

2506
02:13:51,440 --> 02:13:52,760
Speaker 9: and great hopes are coming out.

2507
02:13:53,960 --> 02:13:56,120
Speaker 1: That's the most beautiful thing about getting your quarterback is

2508
02:13:56,160 --> 02:13:58,960
Speaker 1: that in the for the first two three years, I

2509
02:13:58,960 --> 02:14:01,440
Speaker 1: would argue that wins and losses aren't even the thing

2510
02:14:01,440 --> 02:14:04,240
Speaker 1: that you're paying attention to. You're just obsessing over can

2511
02:14:04,320 --> 02:14:08,320
Speaker 1: this kid grow into to the answer? And it gives

2512
02:14:08,400 --> 02:14:11,240
Speaker 1: you hope. Even if it's a six win team, you

2513
02:14:11,280 --> 02:14:12,880
Speaker 1: look at it, you're like, oh my god, like it's

2514
02:14:12,880 --> 02:14:14,560
Speaker 1: a six win team, but we got our guy. And

2515
02:14:14,560 --> 02:14:15,840
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you go to eight wins

2516
02:14:15,840 --> 02:14:17,960
Speaker 1: and it's like, well, yeah, it's eight wins. We didn't

2517
02:14:17,960 --> 02:14:19,960
Speaker 1: make the playoffs, but we got our guy. And it's

2518
02:14:19,960 --> 02:14:22,920
Speaker 1: just it buys you so much time of joy as

2519
02:14:22,920 --> 02:14:25,360
Speaker 1: a fan knowing that you got your guy, and that

2520
02:14:25,400 --> 02:14:27,640
Speaker 1: means that every year you come in with a chance.

2521
02:14:27,680 --> 02:14:29,560
Speaker 1: Like I would argue the Chargers are not a good

2522
02:14:29,560 --> 02:14:32,040
Speaker 1: football team, but the Chargers this year are not as

2523
02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:35,200
Speaker 1: despondent as a fan base as most fan bases of

2524
02:14:35,280 --> 02:14:37,720
Speaker 1: bad teams, because they look around, they're like, we got

2525
02:14:37,840 --> 02:14:39,840
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. That's what happens if you get your guy,

2526
02:14:39,920 --> 02:14:42,280
Speaker 1: Like everything feels different. The Raiders haven't been good for

2527
02:14:42,320 --> 02:14:43,960
Speaker 1: most of my life, but even in the beginning of

2528
02:14:43,960 --> 02:14:46,000
Speaker 1: the Derek Carr era, was like, hey, but we got

2529
02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:47,920
Speaker 1: Derek Carr, and that means we at least we're in

2530
02:14:47,960 --> 02:14:49,680
Speaker 1: this thing. We at least have a shot at this thing.

2531
02:14:49,720 --> 02:14:51,520
Speaker 1: Like there's value to that, There's value to the way

2532
02:14:51,560 --> 02:14:52,880
Speaker 1: it makes you feel as a fan, for sure.

2533
02:14:53,920 --> 02:14:58,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, big time, big time, big time. All right, let's

2534
02:14:58,480 --> 02:15:02,480
Speaker 2: continue going around. I don't you sounds like you like Tennessee.

2535
02:15:02,520 --> 02:15:04,800
Speaker 2: I could see it. It's a game that I would

2536
02:15:04,800 --> 02:15:06,480
Speaker 2: stay away from I'm.

2537
02:15:06,360 --> 02:15:11,360
Speaker 1: Staying away from the game. Yeah, I lean Tennessee. But also,

2538
02:15:11,760 --> 02:15:13,240
Speaker 1: just like I said, we don't know what that defense

2539
02:15:13,320 --> 02:15:14,520
Speaker 1: is going to look like. We don't know how that

2540
02:15:14,560 --> 02:15:17,080
Speaker 1: defense is going to stop all those Chicago weapons. I

2541
02:15:17,400 --> 02:15:18,240
Speaker 1: genuinely don't know.

2542
02:15:18,720 --> 02:15:20,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a tough game.

2543
02:15:20,680 --> 02:15:25,160
Speaker 2: Like great, Uh, Carolina and New Orleans. Believe it or not,

2544
02:15:25,600 --> 02:15:28,120
Speaker 2: there's a lot of Carolina love out there. I don't

2545
02:15:28,160 --> 02:15:32,120
Speaker 2: know why I do not love them. I would bet

2546
02:15:32,200 --> 02:15:35,280
Speaker 2: the game the Saints for four. I think the Saints

2547
02:15:35,280 --> 02:15:37,720
Speaker 2: would win, But I don't like Carolina.

2548
02:15:37,760 --> 02:15:38,000
Speaker 3: I know.

2549
02:15:38,640 --> 02:15:40,440
Speaker 2: Are you one of these people that all of a

2550
02:15:40,480 --> 02:15:43,120
Speaker 2: sudden there's optimism for the Panthers.

2551
02:15:43,640 --> 02:15:46,440
Speaker 1: No, I have no optimism for the Panthers. But I mean,

2552
02:15:46,560 --> 02:15:50,480
Speaker 1: let me throw this at you. If Carolina somehow beats

2553
02:15:50,520 --> 02:15:53,480
Speaker 1: New Orleans, Okay, let me read for you the next

2554
02:15:53,480 --> 02:15:56,520
Speaker 1: several games on New Orleans schedule. If New Orleans starts, oh,

2555
02:15:56,560 --> 02:15:59,520
Speaker 1: win to one, they will then go to Dallas, then

2556
02:15:59,520 --> 02:16:02,000
Speaker 1: they take on the Eagles, then they go to Atlanta,

2557
02:16:02,360 --> 02:16:04,520
Speaker 1: then they go to the Chiefs, then they take on

2558
02:16:04,560 --> 02:16:08,160
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. If they don't win this day on Sunday,

2559
02:16:08,600 --> 02:16:11,520
Speaker 1: there is a very real path to Owen six for

2560
02:16:11,600 --> 02:16:14,040
Speaker 1: the Saints, at which point Dennis Allen will be fired

2561
02:16:14,120 --> 02:16:16,440
Speaker 1: like there's a you're not keeping her Owen six coach,

2562
02:16:16,520 --> 02:16:19,400
Speaker 1: at which point everything's falling apart. Like I think there's

2563
02:16:19,440 --> 02:16:22,960
Speaker 1: actually sneaky pressure on the Saints somehow to win this game,

2564
02:16:23,000 --> 02:16:25,080
Speaker 1: to somehow fix their red zone offense, all of these

2565
02:16:25,080 --> 02:16:26,960
Speaker 1: things that they're gonna have to do, because if this

2566
02:16:26,960 --> 02:16:30,640
Speaker 1: team starts own six, it's over. It's done. So I

2567
02:16:31,480 --> 02:16:34,400
Speaker 1: am not a Carolina supporter in this, but I do

2568
02:16:34,520 --> 02:16:38,000
Speaker 1: acknowledge that if Carolina wins this game, the sky will

2569
02:16:38,040 --> 02:16:40,199
Speaker 1: be falling for Saints fans everywhere.

2570
02:16:40,560 --> 02:16:43,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, now you're a you're right on, dude.

2571
02:16:43,480 --> 02:16:45,599
Speaker 9: You might make Brionna cry a lot.

2572
02:16:47,200 --> 02:16:48,760
Speaker 3: Oh that's right, she's a Saints fan.

2573
02:16:50,000 --> 02:16:52,840
Speaker 1: Oh no, take it all back, And I'm sorry, I

2574
02:16:52,840 --> 02:16:55,039
Speaker 1: can't take it back. It was it was still inaccurate.

2575
02:16:55,240 --> 02:16:56,000
Speaker 1: It's still accurate.

2576
02:16:57,360 --> 02:16:57,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

2577
02:16:58,240 --> 02:17:00,959
Speaker 2: Not a good game is at because I'm manxious to

2578
02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:03,039
Speaker 2: see Atlanta?

2579
02:17:03,240 --> 02:17:04,600
Speaker 3: Who are the Falcons?

2580
02:17:04,680 --> 02:17:04,920
Speaker 1: Man?

2581
02:17:05,240 --> 02:17:09,440
Speaker 2: I'm maxious to see could Kyle Pitts with an actual quarterback?

2582
02:17:10,280 --> 02:17:12,080
Speaker 3: Right? How good is he going to be?

2583
02:17:12,760 --> 02:17:15,400
Speaker 2: And how much will that help Bejeon at the running

2584
02:17:15,440 --> 02:17:20,840
Speaker 2: back position. I'm fascinated by the Falcons.

2585
02:17:22,160 --> 02:17:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's funny too, because I will remain

2586
02:17:24,840 --> 02:17:28,560
Speaker 1: consistent in my belief that you should not bank on

2587
02:17:28,640 --> 02:17:32,320
Speaker 1: a threewenty two year old quarterback coming off an Achilles injury. Now,

2588
02:17:32,320 --> 02:17:34,160
Speaker 1: I don't care if we're talking about the Jets, we're

2589
02:17:34,160 --> 02:17:36,800
Speaker 1: talking about the Vikings. So to me, I get a

2590
02:17:36,840 --> 02:17:38,560
Speaker 1: little bit of the Vikings or the Falcons. I get

2591
02:17:38,600 --> 02:17:41,000
Speaker 1: a little bit worried about Kirk Cousins coming in and

2592
02:17:41,040 --> 02:17:44,400
Speaker 1: just presuming everything's going to be great. That that's problematic

2593
02:17:44,400 --> 02:17:46,560
Speaker 1: for me. But I don't know that there was a

2594
02:17:46,600 --> 02:17:49,920
Speaker 1: bigger addition by subtraction in the entire NFL this year

2595
02:17:50,120 --> 02:17:52,720
Speaker 1: than Arthur Smith no longer being part of the Falcons

2596
02:17:52,800 --> 02:17:56,600
Speaker 1: organization because the dynamic weapons on that offense had been

2597
02:17:56,720 --> 02:17:59,840
Speaker 1: wasted for so long. I'm just eager to see what

2598
02:17:59,879 --> 02:18:02,320
Speaker 1: it looks like when somebody is out there not trying

2599
02:18:02,360 --> 02:18:04,920
Speaker 1: to get cute, not trying to get weird. Somebody's out

2600
02:18:04,920 --> 02:18:07,640
Speaker 1: there actually utilizing the players to the strengths that they have.

2601
02:18:07,760 --> 02:18:10,480
Speaker 1: So like, what's Bijon looked like, what's Kyle Pitts look

2602
02:18:10,560 --> 02:18:13,520
Speaker 1: like when he's finally being utilized. Like this is what

2603
02:18:13,600 --> 02:18:17,000
Speaker 1: gets really interesting to me about the Falcons. I think

2604
02:18:17,000 --> 02:18:18,680
Speaker 1: every week is going to be the eye test of

2605
02:18:19,280 --> 02:18:21,000
Speaker 1: is this team as good as we think they can be?

2606
02:18:21,000 --> 02:18:22,720
Speaker 1: Because on paper, if we were playing the video game

2607
02:18:22,800 --> 02:18:24,880
Speaker 1: version of it, the Falcons look pretty damn good.

2608
02:18:25,879 --> 02:18:29,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, I like him. The bar to the line's

2609
02:18:29,360 --> 02:18:32,800
Speaker 2: three and a half. I like him. I think they

2610
02:18:32,959 --> 02:18:36,360
Speaker 2: I think they would that game. I look at the Steelers, man,

2611
02:18:36,360 --> 02:18:39,560
Speaker 2: I think Ross is completely cooked. They're gonna have to

2612
02:18:39,560 --> 02:18:43,720
Speaker 2: figure it that, figure it all out with I think

2613
02:18:43,720 --> 02:18:44,879
Speaker 2: with fields.

2614
02:18:46,600 --> 02:18:49,959
Speaker 1: And do we buy into any Because you know me,

2615
02:18:49,959 --> 02:18:52,720
Speaker 1: I'm not a conspiracy theorist, So let me say this loudly.

2616
02:18:53,640 --> 02:18:56,280
Speaker 1: If we didn't walk on the moon, that won't change

2617
02:18:56,280 --> 02:18:59,640
Speaker 1: my saturday, right like if if fourteen people were in

2618
02:18:59,680 --> 02:19:02,879
Speaker 1: the grass see Nolan kill Kennedy, that doesn't change my Saturday.

2619
02:19:03,320 --> 02:19:07,280
Speaker 1: But conspiracy theories around football tap. So my only question

2620
02:19:07,360 --> 02:19:10,680
Speaker 1: is calf tightness. I mean, are we buying calf tightness?

2621
02:19:10,920 --> 02:19:14,879
Speaker 1: Like sure seems convenient that well, now he can't play

2622
02:19:14,879 --> 02:19:17,039
Speaker 1: because that that tight calf, and now Russ is gonna

2623
02:19:17,040 --> 02:19:18,720
Speaker 1: get in there. And if Russ gets in there, is

2624
02:19:18,760 --> 02:19:20,920
Speaker 1: he ever gonna or sorry. If Justin Fields gets in there,

2625
02:19:20,959 --> 02:19:22,480
Speaker 1: is he ever gonna get rid of the job? Like,

2626
02:19:22,920 --> 02:19:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, I like this. This one feels a

2627
02:19:25,640 --> 02:19:27,160
Speaker 1: little This one feels a little tricky to me.

2628
02:19:27,600 --> 02:19:32,119
Speaker 3: I know, I know. Uh, all right, we're gonna take

2629
02:19:32,160 --> 02:19:35,400
Speaker 3: quick time out. We'll come right back. We'll continue going around.

2630
02:19:35,920 --> 02:19:39,480
Speaker 3: We've got some good games coming up though. Man Jacksonville, Miami.

2631
02:19:39,920 --> 02:19:40,920
Speaker 1: I like that game.

2632
02:19:41,200 --> 02:19:47,080
Speaker 2: I love Houston, Indianapolis, which is the jewel of the

2633

Speaker 2: iHeartRadio App. All right, my brother, let's continue and go

2666
02:21:34,240 --> 02:21:39,000
Speaker 2: through tomorrow first big day the game. I'm looking forward

2667
02:21:39,040 --> 02:21:44,560
Speaker 2: to the most Texans and Colts. So the Texas. We

2668
02:21:44,640 --> 02:21:50,240
Speaker 2: talk about the Eagles weapons, probably the team with the

2669
02:21:50,560 --> 02:21:54,680
Speaker 2: that rivals them the most. The Texans man, they are

2670
02:21:54,959 --> 02:22:02,199
Speaker 2: loaded loaded at wide receiver offense looks to be nasty,

2671
02:22:02,560 --> 02:22:06,160
Speaker 2: And I'm actually looking forward to Anthony Richardson too to

2672
02:22:06,160 --> 02:22:06,959
Speaker 2: see how he's doing.

2673
02:22:07,840 --> 02:22:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm gonna be consistent with Anthony Richardson the

2674
02:22:11,000 --> 02:22:13,240
Speaker 1: same way I was with Jordan Love. We are making

2675
02:22:13,280 --> 02:22:16,160
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson out to be the second coming based on

2676
02:22:16,200 --> 02:22:18,480
Speaker 1: what four games last year, And the knock on Anthony

2677
02:22:18,560 --> 02:22:20,879
Speaker 1: Richardson coming into the league was that he needed more tape,

2678
02:22:20,879 --> 02:22:22,880
Speaker 1: more time. He didn't get that last year because of

2679
02:22:22,920 --> 02:22:26,039
Speaker 1: the injury, which I think is significant consequence. So for me,

2680
02:22:26,200 --> 02:22:28,320
Speaker 1: this year becomes a little bit of a what we

2681
02:22:28,320 --> 02:22:30,640
Speaker 1: thought last year would be, like learning curve, growing pains,

2682
02:22:30,640 --> 02:22:33,400
Speaker 1: all those things. That's gonna be real for Anthony Richardson.

2683
02:22:33,480 --> 02:22:35,560
Speaker 1: So I think this starts off as a big test

2684
02:22:35,560 --> 02:22:37,560
Speaker 1: and a big test to our patients and ability to

2685
02:22:37,640 --> 02:22:40,440
Speaker 1: not overreact, because if he looks bad at all in

2686
02:22:40,480 --> 02:22:43,920
Speaker 1: this game, we're gonna overreact. If the Texans struggled all

2687
02:22:43,959 --> 02:22:46,720
Speaker 1: against this defense, we're gonna overreact. But you're right, this

2688
02:22:46,840 --> 02:22:50,039
Speaker 1: is sort of a who's real, what's legit moment for

2689
02:22:50,120 --> 02:22:52,720
Speaker 1: both of these teams. Are the Colts a playoff team?

2690
02:22:52,959 --> 02:22:56,520
Speaker 1: Are the Texans on the same level with the Chiefs

2691
02:22:56,520 --> 02:22:58,120
Speaker 1: and the Bills. That's where they think they're gonna be

2692
02:22:58,120 --> 02:23:00,400
Speaker 1: this year. The Texans have invested a lot of money

2693
02:23:00,560 --> 02:23:03,280
Speaker 1: that checksas have invested a lot into this moment, So

2694
02:23:03,320 --> 02:23:05,800
Speaker 1: they're not They're not playing to be a nine win

2695
02:23:05,920 --> 02:23:08,440
Speaker 1: team that you know barely gets into the playoffs thanks

2696
02:23:08,480 --> 02:23:11,080
Speaker 1: to one or two plays. Like, they're playing to be elite.

2697
02:23:11,120 --> 02:23:13,680
Speaker 1: So there's a lot here that I love. Steph Diggs.

2698
02:23:14,000 --> 02:23:16,240
Speaker 1: The last two quarterbacks he's worked with have been two

2699
02:23:16,280 --> 02:23:18,760
Speaker 1: of the easiest going quarterbacks in the NFL, and he's

2700
02:23:18,800 --> 02:23:21,040
Speaker 1: had problems with both of them. So how does that

2701
02:23:21,120 --> 02:23:23,720
Speaker 1: manage into this locker room? How does that play into

2702
02:23:23,760 --> 02:23:26,280
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud and his leadership? Is a second year

2703
02:23:26,320 --> 02:23:29,080
Speaker 1: player now, Like all of this stuff becomes really interesting

2704
02:23:29,120 --> 02:23:31,600
Speaker 1: to me, is right? The league gave us a real

2705
02:23:32,400 --> 02:23:34,320
Speaker 1: juicy matchup right out of the gates with this one,

2706
02:23:34,440 --> 02:23:36,080
Speaker 1: and I think there's gonna be a ton of learning

2707
02:23:36,080 --> 02:23:36,440
Speaker 1: out of it.

2708
02:23:37,520 --> 02:23:42,640
Speaker 2: You know why everybody's in love with Anthony richardson fantasy Yep,

2709
02:23:43,080 --> 02:23:48,120
Speaker 2: he's a great fantasy player. So we distort reality and

2710
02:23:48,200 --> 02:23:50,640
Speaker 2: I like andthy Richard like like, you know, I promise,

2711
02:23:50,920 --> 02:23:54,360
Speaker 2: and he's in a good spot with Shane Steichen, and

2712
02:23:54,560 --> 02:23:56,640
Speaker 2: I think psychn get a lot out of him and

2713
02:23:56,680 --> 02:23:59,960
Speaker 2: he can grow, but it's way too early to put

2714
02:24:00,080 --> 02:24:05,640
Speaker 2: all kinds of expectations on him. Again, coming out of Florida,

2715
02:24:05,680 --> 02:24:08,280
Speaker 2: we knew he was a project. He looked good all

2716
02:24:08,360 --> 02:24:12,840
Speaker 2: right again, Like you said, four games, he is a

2717
02:24:12,959 --> 02:24:16,640
Speaker 2: terrific fantasy quarterback, and I think we blur it all

2718
02:24:16,680 --> 02:24:19,600
Speaker 2: the time, so I think that's kind of why you're

2719
02:24:19,720 --> 02:24:20,720
Speaker 2: hearing all that love.

2720
02:24:21,879 --> 02:24:24,039
Speaker 1: And I also think Shane Steich and by the way,

2721
02:24:24,040 --> 02:24:27,080
Speaker 1: did an amazing job last year, and I understand why

2722
02:24:27,080 --> 02:24:29,199
Speaker 1: he's getting a lot of benefit of the doubt again.

2723
02:24:29,800 --> 02:24:32,240
Speaker 1: After one year, we had decided that Dable was the

2724
02:24:32,240 --> 02:24:34,480
Speaker 1: future of the NFL, and now we're not even sure

2725
02:24:34,480 --> 02:24:36,360
Speaker 1: if he's gonna have a job by midseason, right, So

2726
02:24:37,760 --> 02:24:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm so risk averse with all this. I just want

2727
02:24:39,840 --> 02:24:41,520
Speaker 1: to see a little bit more. And that's why I

2728
02:24:41,560 --> 02:24:43,720
Speaker 1: think this is sort of much must watch out of

2729
02:24:43,720 --> 02:24:46,120
Speaker 1: this game, because these are our chances to really see

2730
02:24:46,160 --> 02:24:47,840
Speaker 1: more and try and figure out how good this team

2731
02:24:47,879 --> 02:24:48,360
Speaker 1: actually is.

2732
02:24:48,680 --> 02:24:53,240
Speaker 2: Totally totally another great game early Miami and Jacksonville.

2733
02:24:54,680 --> 02:24:55,440
Speaker 3: I'm curious.

2734
02:24:55,520 --> 02:24:59,920
Speaker 2: This is a huge year for Lawrence, and all right,

2735
02:25:00,400 --> 02:25:03,600
Speaker 2: the excuse is stop, Let's see what you got. It

2736
02:25:03,640 --> 02:25:07,640
Speaker 2: was a disaster year last year. All right, you regroup,

2737
02:25:08,360 --> 02:25:10,920
Speaker 2: Let's see what you got going on. Because you know,

2738
02:25:10,959 --> 02:25:15,400
Speaker 2: Doug Peters's job depends on it. And I'm curious. He's

2739
02:25:15,440 --> 02:25:18,840
Speaker 2: got a lot of talent. I still believe in Lawrence,

2740
02:25:19,760 --> 02:25:22,800
Speaker 2: and I believe what's around him. And you know, this

2741
02:25:22,840 --> 02:25:24,800
Speaker 2: is a big deal for him. This is a big.

2742
02:25:24,680 --> 02:25:28,680
Speaker 1: Year, Taylor. Two years last year, Trevor Lawrence pre high

2743
02:25:28,680 --> 02:25:32,480
Speaker 1: ankle spraying, Trevor Lawrence post high ankle spray, right, and

2744
02:25:32,520 --> 02:25:35,400
Speaker 1: he was just never the same. But there is some

2745
02:25:35,640 --> 02:25:38,400
Speaker 1: level of you gave the QB all the money in

2746
02:25:38,440 --> 02:25:41,000
Speaker 1: the world, and so you've told the entire world you

2747
02:25:41,160 --> 02:25:43,880
Speaker 1: have the guy that can make you mahomes in right,

2748
02:25:43,959 --> 02:25:46,160
Speaker 1: like you have a guy that can help you compete

2749
02:25:46,360 --> 02:25:48,360
Speaker 1: at the highest possible level. And sometimes we do need

2750
02:25:48,400 --> 02:25:50,520
Speaker 1: to remember what the conversation sounded like a year ago

2751
02:25:50,600 --> 02:25:52,600
Speaker 1: right now. The conversation a year ago right now was

2752
02:25:53,000 --> 02:25:55,199
Speaker 1: all about the Jags taking the same leap I'm talking

2753
02:25:55,240 --> 02:25:58,520
Speaker 1: about the Texans taken now. So this is the sort

2754
02:25:58,560 --> 02:26:01,440
Speaker 1: of game. Miami has a reputation that they have earned

2755
02:26:01,520 --> 02:26:04,600
Speaker 1: to be very clear where they cannot beat good teams.

2756
02:26:05,240 --> 02:26:07,120
Speaker 1: The Jags need to be a good team, so this

2757
02:26:07,200 --> 02:26:08,879
Speaker 1: should be a test for both sides, that it should

2758
02:26:08,879 --> 02:26:10,720
Speaker 1: be an opportunity to see where both of them are.

2759
02:26:11,600 --> 02:26:13,800
Speaker 1: You're right, this is one of the better matchups of

2760
02:26:13,840 --> 02:26:14,920
Speaker 1: the opening weekend.

2761
02:26:14,920 --> 02:26:15,680
Speaker 3: Three and a half.

2762
02:26:16,360 --> 02:26:19,760
Speaker 2: I hate to tell you, I don't like it. I

2763
02:26:19,760 --> 02:26:22,000
Speaker 2: don't like the game. I can't read it.

2764
02:26:22,680 --> 02:26:26,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you, my friend. As a like,

2765
02:26:26,320 --> 02:26:28,039
Speaker 1: I used to always say I was a dabbler. I've

2766
02:26:28,080 --> 02:26:30,400
Speaker 1: now decided that I am a degenerate. I'll give you that.

2767
02:26:30,760 --> 02:26:33,200
Speaker 1: I realized that I gamble too much on football, not

2768
02:26:33,240 --> 02:26:34,920
Speaker 1: too much. I don't have a problem, don't really worry,

2769
02:26:35,760 --> 02:26:39,039
Speaker 1: I will say this I am. I am for the

2770
02:26:39,080 --> 02:26:41,840
Speaker 1: most part, taking Week one entirely off. I feel like

2771
02:26:42,400 --> 02:26:45,200
Speaker 1: all of the spreads are too There's just not enough

2772
02:26:45,560 --> 02:26:48,400
Speaker 1: reward to make the risk worth it. I would rather

2773
02:26:48,440 --> 02:26:50,760
Speaker 1: sit out a week, let everybody overreact, and then come

2774
02:26:50,760 --> 02:26:53,600
Speaker 1: into Week two and actually, like, actually have the chance

2775
02:26:53,640 --> 02:26:55,840
Speaker 1: to make a little cash. I just don't. I don't

2776
02:26:55,879 --> 02:26:57,440
Speaker 1: feel like it's worth it. I don't like a lot

2777
02:26:57,440 --> 02:26:59,280
Speaker 1: of these spreads. But then I sit there and I

2778
02:26:59,280 --> 02:27:02,160
Speaker 1: get nervous. What does Vegas realize that I don't, So

2779
02:27:02,280 --> 02:27:03,920
Speaker 1: I'm sitting on the sidelines for most of this in

2780
02:27:03,959 --> 02:27:04,480
Speaker 1: Week one.

2781
02:27:05,080 --> 02:27:05,560
Speaker 3: Good swat.

2782
02:27:05,720 --> 02:27:11,160
Speaker 2: That's smart, very smart, because these games are difficult. Why

2783
02:27:11,160 --> 02:27:14,360
Speaker 2: about you, Di Sac Chargers Raiders.

2784
02:27:15,920 --> 02:27:18,480
Speaker 1: This game is actually pretty simple. Jim Harbaugh is going

2785
02:27:18,560 --> 02:27:20,400
Speaker 1: to want to run the football because that's what he does.

2786
02:27:20,760 --> 02:27:22,720
Speaker 1: And the Raiders, if they have a susceptible part of

2787
02:27:22,720 --> 02:27:25,160
Speaker 1: their defense, it looks to be stopping the run. It

2788
02:27:25,400 --> 02:27:28,920
Speaker 1: fundamentally wasn't great last year. It wasn't great in the preseason.

2789
02:27:29,000 --> 02:27:31,720
Speaker 1: Even Antonio Pierce to address that. So the path to

2790
02:27:31,800 --> 02:27:34,520
Speaker 1: winning for the Chargers is to just run the ball

2791
02:27:34,560 --> 02:27:36,800
Speaker 1: down the Raiders' throats. The path to winning for the Raiders,

2792
02:27:36,920 --> 02:27:40,000
Speaker 1: it's pretty simple. It's got to be Gardner Minshew limiting

2793
02:27:40,320 --> 02:27:43,200
Speaker 1: any sort of turnovers. I don't think Gardner Minshew needs

2794
02:27:43,200 --> 02:27:46,119
Speaker 1: to complete more than fifteen or sixteen passes in a game, honestly,

2795
02:27:46,120 --> 02:27:50,080
Speaker 1: which sounds neanderthal like for modern football. He just needs

2796
02:27:50,080 --> 02:27:51,959
Speaker 1: to have a zero next to the interception column.

2797
02:27:52,040 --> 02:27:52,200
Speaker 3: Right.

2798
02:27:52,240 --> 02:27:54,080
Speaker 1: So the big part of this is how does the

2799
02:27:54,120 --> 02:27:56,080
Speaker 1: offensive line hold up for the Raiders. That's going to

2800
02:27:56,120 --> 02:27:58,040
Speaker 1: be a question mark. They're still going to be down

2801
02:27:58,080 --> 02:28:00,440
Speaker 1: a little bit on some injuries there, and then how

2802
02:28:00,440 --> 02:28:02,440
Speaker 1: do they stop the run. This is the type of

2803
02:28:02,480 --> 02:28:04,080
Speaker 1: game that if the Raiders are going to be any

2804
02:28:04,120 --> 02:28:06,080
Speaker 1: good this year, they have to win. I would say

2805
02:28:06,120 --> 02:28:07,680
Speaker 1: the same thing if I was a Chargers fan. If

2806
02:28:07,680 --> 02:28:09,760
Speaker 1: the Chargers are gonna be any good, they have to

2807
02:28:09,760 --> 02:28:12,640
Speaker 1: win this football game. I really think that this comes

2808
02:28:12,640 --> 02:28:15,040
Speaker 1: down to the trenches, and that makes me nervous, especially

2809
02:28:15,080 --> 02:28:16,680
Speaker 1: at so far. I wouldn't be surprised at all to

2810
02:28:16,680 --> 02:28:17,879
Speaker 1: see the Chargers win this game.

2811
02:28:18,400 --> 02:28:20,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Chargers are a three point favorite.

2812
02:28:21,440 --> 02:28:24,120
Speaker 1: It feels about right. Yeah, it feels about right. This

2813
02:28:24,120 --> 02:28:27,240
Speaker 1: feels like an ugly football game where we walk away saying, man,

2814
02:28:27,280 --> 02:28:30,720
Speaker 1: neither of these teams are very good right now, that's right, and.

2815
02:28:30,440 --> 02:28:32,680
Speaker 3: That's got to be six three written that halftime.

2816
02:28:35,520 --> 02:28:38,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't be like this feels to me like

2817
02:28:38,520 --> 02:28:41,080
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen is the final on It just just kind

2818
02:28:41,080 --> 02:28:43,080
Speaker 1: of ugly, gross. And then it's like, well that set

2819
02:28:43,080 --> 02:28:44,119
Speaker 1: football back a decade.

2820
02:28:44,840 --> 02:28:45,880
Speaker 3: Well what will you do?

2821
02:28:46,120 --> 02:28:50,480
Speaker 2: You could take us into your world, all right, some

2822
02:28:50,640 --> 02:28:51,760
Speaker 2: greaters Chargers.

2823
02:28:52,040 --> 02:28:53,200
Speaker 3: There's no donuts.

2824
02:28:53,240 --> 02:28:57,119
Speaker 1: We've learned, there's no donuts. I am going to air

2825
02:28:57,160 --> 02:28:59,800
Speaker 1: fry some chicken. The air fright chicken will be ready

2826
02:28:59,840 --> 02:29:02,400
Speaker 1: for me. I am going to have a large plate

2827
02:29:02,440 --> 02:29:05,560
Speaker 1: of vegetables, some carrots and things that I can stress ee,

2828
02:29:06,200 --> 02:29:09,480
Speaker 1: and I am going to I'm going to hop on

2829
02:29:09,520 --> 02:29:11,560
Speaker 1: the walking treadmill and I'm going to try and walk

2830
02:29:11,600 --> 02:29:15,600
Speaker 1: the aggression out. Okay, that is my plan right now. Obviously,

2831
02:29:15,680 --> 02:29:18,040
Speaker 1: there are other games in the afternoon that are important.

2832
02:29:18,400 --> 02:29:20,640
Speaker 1: So you know, I have the basement setup is where

2833
02:29:20,640 --> 02:29:22,280
Speaker 1: I have the four TVs, but that's too dark to

2834
02:29:22,280 --> 02:29:24,520
Speaker 1: watch NFL Sunday Football. So I go to the living

2835
02:29:24,879 --> 02:29:26,880
Speaker 1: living room TV where the big ones above the mantle.

2836
02:29:27,000 --> 02:29:29,120
Speaker 1: The Raiders will go on the big TV. I will

2837
02:29:29,120 --> 02:29:32,480
Speaker 1: pull two of the TVs down that I need to

2838
02:29:32,600 --> 02:29:34,560
Speaker 1: and put them just on top of my piano next

2839
02:29:34,600 --> 02:29:35,959
Speaker 1: to it so that I can have a couple extra

2840
02:29:36,000 --> 02:29:39,039
Speaker 1: TVs going, and I will half ask my preparation on

2841
02:29:39,080 --> 02:29:41,640
Speaker 1: the other four o'clock games while I yell at the

2842
02:29:41,640 --> 02:29:44,000
Speaker 1: TV the entire time. I do think I will give

2843
02:29:44,040 --> 02:29:46,680
Speaker 1: myself the grace of maybe some diet soda, which I

2844
02:29:46,720 --> 02:29:49,959
Speaker 1: haven't had. I've have very little to any diet soda,

2845
02:29:50,040 --> 02:29:52,640
Speaker 1: so I might go get myself some diet roop here

2846
02:29:52,720 --> 02:29:55,280
Speaker 1: and at least have that that. But I also know

2847
02:29:55,320 --> 02:29:57,760
Speaker 1: that I stress drink, I stresst I stress drink and

2848
02:29:57,800 --> 02:30:01,519
Speaker 1: I do. This is a no free, no free sponsorships,

2849
02:30:01,520 --> 02:30:04,480
Speaker 1: but they don't pay me. Liars is a company that

2850
02:30:04,560 --> 02:30:08,080
Speaker 1: makes fake cocktails, non alcoholic drinks, and they're really good.

2851
02:30:08,120 --> 02:30:09,880
Speaker 1: They taste like actually, I went to a bar and

2852
02:30:09,920 --> 02:30:12,320
Speaker 1: I got a cocktail and so they're canned. They have

2853
02:30:12,360 --> 02:30:14,480
Speaker 1: canned cocktails. So I'm going to have a canned fake

2854
02:30:14,600 --> 02:30:15,760
Speaker 1: cocktail to start the game.

2855
02:30:16,720 --> 02:30:23,480
Speaker 2: There you go, not yourself out sounds, pathetic sounds.

2856
02:30:23,600 --> 02:30:25,760
Speaker 1: And if that doesn't work, next Sunday for the Ravens

2857
02:30:25,840 --> 02:30:27,520
Speaker 1: Raiders game, I'll just go to J Tim's and have

2858
02:30:27,600 --> 02:30:28,920
Speaker 1: the best wings in America all day.

2859
02:30:29,520 --> 02:30:31,600
Speaker 3: I don't always want you to do that, just for

2860
02:30:31,680 --> 02:30:32,000
Speaker 3: the game.

2861
02:30:32,600 --> 02:30:35,600
Speaker 2: Just do it for Raiders, man, Like, don't do it

2862
02:30:35,600 --> 02:30:37,480
Speaker 2: the rest of the week, but just do it for Raiders.

2863
02:30:38,360 --> 02:30:41,680
Speaker 1: I mean a bucket of wings from Jims Jtimothy's. And

2864
02:30:41,720 --> 02:30:44,039
Speaker 1: for anyone that's never been to Connecticut. When I moved here,

2865
02:30:44,320 --> 02:30:46,240
Speaker 1: everybody told me they were like, what's good? Like what

2866
02:30:46,400 --> 02:30:48,480
Speaker 1: is the food here? And everybody told me wings and

2867
02:30:48,520 --> 02:30:50,320
Speaker 1: I laughed because I was like, wings are not your

2868
02:30:50,320 --> 02:30:53,440
Speaker 1: signature food. And then somebody told me, well, J Tim's

02:31:16,800 --> 02:31:18,040
Speaker 1: can resist the wings tomorrow.

2879

Speaker 3: Yeah. You deserve it, dude, beast all summer, all year.

02:31:31,680 --> 02:31:33,920
Speaker 3: You deserve just for the Raider game. That's it.

2886
02:31:34,959 --> 02:31:38,640

2888
02:31:43,600 --> 02:31:45,400
Speaker 1: to going to the gym in the morning before Fantasy

2889
02:31:45,440 --> 02:31:48,440
Speaker 1: Football and then I walking treadmill the one pm games,

2890
02:31:48,640 --> 02:31:50,120
Speaker 1: then it's just a net neutral day.

2891
02:31:50,240 --> 02:31:54,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're you're rid it, you're rid, You're rid.

2892
02:31:54,520 --> 02:31:56,200
Speaker 1: I'll send you a I get the wings.

2893
02:31:56,200 --> 02:32:02,360
Speaker 2: Please, those wings. I've had those wings. They're ridiculous. Cowboys

2894
02:32:02,640 --> 02:32:09,440
Speaker 2: and Browns is a great elite four o'clock game. Browns

2895
02:32:09,480 --> 02:32:13,640
Speaker 2: two and a half, the total low forty and a half.

2896
02:32:13,680 --> 02:32:15,160
Speaker 2: I kind of like the other of that one too,

2897
02:32:15,959 --> 02:32:18,279
Speaker 2: that Browns defense, no joke.

2898
02:32:19,600 --> 02:32:20,840
Speaker 3: I like Cleveland that game.

2899
02:32:22,720 --> 02:32:24,120
Speaker 1: I still I mean, you know where I am on

2900
02:32:24,160 --> 02:32:28,280
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I don't trust Deshaun at all, and I

2901
02:32:28,320 --> 02:32:31,000
Speaker 1: am I don't want to make everything about a quarterback

2902
02:32:31,040 --> 02:32:34,120
Speaker 1: because it shouldn't be and the Browns are so good

2903
02:32:34,120 --> 02:32:35,640
Speaker 1: and their coach is so good that the rest of

2904
02:32:35,680 --> 02:32:38,760
Speaker 1: the roster should be a problem for everybody. But man,

2905
02:32:39,000 --> 02:32:40,480
Speaker 1: I just I'm sitting there saying, well, if I got

2906
02:32:40,520 --> 02:32:42,480
Speaker 1: a bank on somebody to make a mistake in this game,

2907
02:32:42,520 --> 02:32:45,040
Speaker 1: it's going to be Deshaun. And like, here's the crazy part.

2908
02:32:45,040 --> 02:32:47,720
Speaker 1: Somebody asked me the other day, when's the last time

2909
02:32:47,760 --> 02:32:50,959
Speaker 1: this entire offseason we read or heard a report from

2910
02:32:51,000 --> 02:32:53,640
Speaker 1: anybody at camp with the Browns that was like, man,

2911
02:32:53,680 --> 02:32:56,400
Speaker 1: DeShawn looks great, or even DeShawn looks pretty good. We

2912
02:32:56,440 --> 02:32:58,720
Speaker 1: haven't heard of any of that. I just I don't.

2913
02:32:59,120 --> 02:33:00,879
Speaker 1: I can't find a light at the end of the

2914
02:33:00,879 --> 02:33:03,879
Speaker 1: tunnel when it involves to Deshaun Watson. Not the human being,

2915
02:33:03,959 --> 02:33:07,240
Speaker 1: because that's a whole nother conversation, but Deshaun Watson the

2916
02:33:07,280 --> 02:33:09,280
Speaker 1: football player. I don't trust him. I think the wrong

2917
02:33:09,280 --> 02:33:11,400
Speaker 1: team's favored here. I think the Cowboy's gonna win this game.

2918
02:33:12,040 --> 02:33:17,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I hear you, And I'm dubious when it

2919
02:33:17,920 --> 02:33:19,520
Speaker 2: comes to Deshaun Watson as well.

2920
02:33:19,600 --> 02:33:22,240
Speaker 3: So I feel I just love that defense. Man.

2921
02:33:22,280 --> 02:33:26,720
Speaker 2: I'd love with that Cleveland defense, how that's built. You know,

2922
02:33:26,959 --> 02:33:32,960
Speaker 2: Miles Garrett gets no love. He doesn't get enough. As

2923
02:33:33,080 --> 02:33:35,879
Speaker 2: great as he is, he doesn't get enough love.

2924
02:33:36,040 --> 02:33:36,400
Speaker 3: Man.

2925
02:33:36,800 --> 02:33:39,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I totally agree with that, Like we are forgetting

2926
02:33:39,760 --> 02:33:42,480
Speaker 1: that we are seeing a Hall of Fame caliber player

2927
02:33:42,480 --> 02:33:45,400
Speaker 1: that is just dominating at a level. You know, this

2928
02:33:45,480 --> 02:33:48,520
Speaker 1: is such a weird world to live in that two

2929
02:33:48,600 --> 02:33:51,760
Speaker 1: of I think the most dynamic pass rushers we have

2930
02:33:51,879 --> 02:33:55,920
Speaker 1: ever seen and most disruptive defensive line forces in Miles

2931
02:33:55,920 --> 02:33:58,400
Speaker 1: Garrett and Max Crosby are both names that we know

2932
02:33:58,720 --> 02:34:00,440
Speaker 1: and they're both on teams that we are not paying

2933
02:34:00,440 --> 02:34:03,560
Speaker 1: attention to be with those players like it is. It

2934
02:34:03,680 --> 02:34:07,440
Speaker 1: is incredible to me that Miles just seems forgotten at times.

2935
02:34:07,560 --> 02:34:10,000
Speaker 1: It's absolutely incredible for somebody's down there as he is.

2936
02:34:10,600 --> 02:34:12,240
Speaker 2: All Right, we gotta take quick t we'll come back.

2937
02:34:12,280 --> 02:34:15,320
Speaker 2: We'll wrap it up. Where the fellas hanging out every week.

Speaker 2: Anthony Gargano every week here on Fox Sports Radio from

2942
02:34:33,879 --> 02:34:37,840
Speaker 2: the uh as we hang out from the tyraq dot

2943
02:34:37,879 --> 02:34:41,920
Speaker 2: com studios. All right, let's let's kind of go through

2944
02:34:41,920 --> 02:34:44,000
Speaker 2: some of these games because there's still a lot more

2945
02:34:44,560 --> 02:34:46,680
Speaker 2: that I want to talk about.

2946
02:34:46,720 --> 02:34:51,199
Speaker 3: Washington. This is gonna be interesting because you get.

2947
02:34:51,120 --> 02:34:57,280
Speaker 2: Daniels and Jane and Daniels against Tampa. I talked to

2948
02:34:57,360 --> 02:35:02,360
Speaker 2: Baldy the other day, and Baldy really bullish on the Buccaneers.

2949
02:35:03,320 --> 02:35:06,039
Speaker 2: I'm kind of like Luke warmal Baker Mayfield. He thinks

2950
02:35:06,080 --> 02:35:13,359
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield has a goth light like of Renaissance.

2951
02:35:13,560 --> 02:35:14,520
Speaker 3: If that makes sense.

2952
02:35:16,400 --> 02:35:20,080
Speaker 1: It does. The only clapback I would give to that,

2953
02:35:20,160 --> 02:35:22,840
Speaker 1: and you know Baldy Obviously hard for me to clap

2954
02:35:22,879 --> 02:35:25,160
Speaker 1: anything to Baldy because he could, you know, destroy me

2955
02:35:25,200 --> 02:35:27,600
Speaker 1: with his pinky toe. But the only thing I would

2956
02:35:27,600 --> 02:35:29,400
Speaker 1: say to that is Dave can alyis no longer being

2957
02:35:29,440 --> 02:35:32,520
Speaker 1: there to me is significant, And in talking to Baker,

2958
02:35:32,600 --> 02:35:35,199
Speaker 1: he made it clear that there was a good relationship

2959
02:35:35,240 --> 02:35:38,160
Speaker 1: there that really meant something to him. And so now

2960
02:35:38,200 --> 02:35:40,560
Speaker 1: somebody else has to come in and capture that same communication.

2961
02:35:40,640 --> 02:35:43,280
Speaker 1: I think that there's an opportunity for a little bit

2962
02:35:43,280 --> 02:35:46,160
Speaker 1: of a step back. Like it's crazy, because this goes

2963
02:35:46,200 --> 02:35:47,840
Speaker 1: one or two ways. It goes Golf like or it

2964
02:35:47,840 --> 02:35:50,400
Speaker 1: goes Geno Smith like. And you know, Gino had a

2965
02:35:50,440 --> 02:35:53,200
Speaker 1: really big year. Then they gave him a contract that

2966
02:35:53,360 --> 02:35:55,640
Speaker 1: sort of showed part of that. And now Gino's back

2967
02:35:55,680 --> 02:35:57,880
Speaker 1: to a after last year we took a little step back,

2968
02:35:57,920 --> 02:35:59,680
Speaker 1: He's back to approve it year. That's kind of what

2969
02:35:59,720 --> 02:36:02,280
Speaker 1: I think is gonna happen at this point because Canalis

2970
02:36:02,320 --> 02:36:04,840
Speaker 1: deserves a ton of credit for being the right voice

2971
02:36:04,840 --> 02:36:07,160
Speaker 1: at the right time, the right calming presence for Baker.

2972
02:36:07,480 --> 02:36:10,240
Speaker 1: Baker just seemed like he was different after last season,

2973
02:36:10,360 --> 02:36:15,200
Speaker 1: So I'm not as confident that Baker has no drop

2974
02:36:15,240 --> 02:36:17,640
Speaker 1: off in this But that being said, this game also

2975
02:36:17,760 --> 02:36:19,840
Speaker 1: interesting because the Washington side of it. I mean, Jade

2976
02:36:19,920 --> 02:36:23,800
Speaker 1: Daniels is so dynamic, and there are some playmakers for Washington.

2977
02:36:23,800 --> 02:36:26,600
Speaker 1: Like Washington I think right now is a franchise. Looks

2978
02:36:26,600 --> 02:36:28,360
Speaker 1: like they're in better shape than the Giants, right So

2979
02:36:28,360 --> 02:36:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm not putting Washington in the basement. I just don't

2980
02:36:31,120 --> 02:36:34,640
Speaker 1: know that Washington has enough to push forward. But I'm

2981
02:36:34,640 --> 02:36:36,640
Speaker 1: really interested to see what Jayden looks like from day

2982
02:36:36,640 --> 02:36:38,520
Speaker 1: one in this in this offense, in this league with

2983
02:36:38,520 --> 02:36:40,520
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury.

2984
02:36:39,959 --> 02:36:42,720
Speaker 2: I mean, he's got wapids too, Like it's you know again,

2985
02:36:44,120 --> 02:36:47,360
Speaker 2: Terry McLaren's Gary Terry. To me, it's been one of

2986
02:36:47,400 --> 02:36:49,680
Speaker 2: the most underrated receivers in the league. He has no

2987
02:36:49,760 --> 02:36:51,720
Speaker 2: quarterback preach.

2988
02:36:52,000 --> 02:36:54,240
Speaker 1: God, you are so right, Like you talk about somebody

2989
02:36:54,240 --> 02:36:56,400
Speaker 1: that can literally do everything that you want a wide

2990
02:36:56,440 --> 02:36:59,199
Speaker 1: receiver to do, and he does it all effortlessly. Yeah,

2991
02:36:59,280 --> 02:37:01,520
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin deserves much more credit, and he would be

2992
02:37:01,560 --> 02:37:04,000
Speaker 1: getting it if it wasn't the Commanders and if he

2993
02:37:04,040 --> 02:37:05,039
Speaker 1: had a decent quarterback.

2994
02:37:06,440 --> 02:37:08,880
Speaker 2: Right The game of the day though tomorrow is at night.

2995
02:37:09,600 --> 02:37:15,360
Speaker 2: It's Rams Lions. It's too high powered offenses. It's I

2996
02:37:15,360 --> 02:37:19,520
Speaker 2: think the Rams are sneaky. I think Rams have a

2997
02:37:19,560 --> 02:37:24,000
Speaker 2: real chance to win the West. And you know, love

2998
02:37:24,040 --> 02:37:27,040
Speaker 2: the Lions and what they look like. That's a uh

2999
02:37:27,240 --> 02:37:31,080
Speaker 2: that's that's a great game Tomorrow night. Lions are four

3000
02:37:31,120 --> 02:37:35,440
Speaker 2: and a half, feels like it's a little uh fat,

3001
02:37:35,920 --> 02:37:39,120
Speaker 2: kind of like the Rams. The totals fifty two and

3002
02:37:39,160 --> 02:37:42,240
Speaker 2: a half. I'd still go over. I think it's a

3003
02:37:42,280 --> 02:37:44,520
Speaker 2: high total. But I think you were going to see

3004
02:37:44,680 --> 02:37:46,480
Speaker 2: the both of these teams go up and down the field.

3005
02:37:47,920 --> 02:37:50,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is going to be the proven moment

3006
02:37:50,280 --> 02:37:52,280
Speaker 1: for the Lions on the defensive side of the ball

3007
02:37:52,280 --> 02:37:55,240
Speaker 1: because they've really tried to rework that secondary. Boy, you

3008
02:37:55,280 --> 02:37:57,160
Speaker 1: talk about a great way to see if you've reworked

3009
02:37:57,160 --> 02:37:58,720
Speaker 1: it from the outset, you know what I mean, Like

3010
02:37:59,400 --> 02:38:02,640
Speaker 1: taking on McVeigh, taking on a quarterback that absolutely can

3011
02:38:02,680 --> 02:38:04,800
Speaker 1: carve you up, that has seen so much football and

3012
02:38:04,840 --> 02:38:08,040
Speaker 1: processes so quickly, taking on those wide receivers. I mean,

3013
02:38:08,320 --> 02:38:11,760
Speaker 1: the Lions. We're gonna find out literally week one if

3014
02:38:11,760 --> 02:38:14,480
Speaker 1: the Lions have taken care of their biggest weakness or not.

3015
02:38:14,760 --> 02:38:17,879
Speaker 1: And so I think that's it's wildly interesting, and I

3016
02:38:17,920 --> 02:38:21,240
Speaker 1: am curious to see what the Rams look like with

3017
02:38:21,360 --> 02:38:24,200
Speaker 1: no Aaron Donald defensively, Like what change does that make

3018
02:38:24,240 --> 02:38:26,280
Speaker 1: to the entirety of their defense? But I'm with you.

3019
02:38:26,320 --> 02:38:27,760
Speaker 1: I think the Rams are being slept on a little

3020
02:38:27,800 --> 02:38:29,920
Speaker 1: bit this year. I think they have a chance to

3021
02:38:29,920 --> 02:38:32,760
Speaker 1: be a playoff team, absolutely, And the Lions are getting

3022
02:38:32,920 --> 02:38:35,400
Speaker 1: such benefit of the doubt now, such glory going to

3023
02:38:35,440 --> 02:38:38,800
Speaker 1: the Lions. I think this is a really interesting out

3024
02:38:38,800 --> 02:38:40,680
Speaker 1: of the gates. Is your defense better and can you

3025
02:38:40,720 --> 02:38:42,760
Speaker 1: handle the pressure that now comes with being the hunted?

3026
02:38:42,959 --> 02:38:45,920
Speaker 1: That's all going to be answered in one Sunday night, Gay, Like,

3027
02:38:45,959 --> 02:38:48,320
Speaker 1: that's just beautiful planning by the NFL. God, we're going

3028
02:38:48,360 --> 02:38:49,879
Speaker 1: to be salivating over that.

3029
02:38:50,160 --> 02:38:53,880
Speaker 2: I know, dude, And of course you know Monday Night

3030
02:38:55,200 --> 02:38:59,280
Speaker 2: Rogers Niners. You got to read on the Niners nine

3031
02:38:59,320 --> 02:39:01,520
Speaker 2: Ers four and a half. I like the Jets in

3032
02:39:01,520 --> 02:39:03,280
Speaker 2: the game, but I think.

3033
02:39:03,200 --> 02:39:05,400
Speaker 1: The Niners are gonna be fine, and I actually like

3034
02:39:05,440 --> 02:39:08,039
Speaker 1: the Niners in this game. I like the Niners in

3035
02:39:08,040 --> 02:39:10,880
Speaker 1: this game. That Niners defense is going to be disruptive.

3036
02:39:10,920 --> 02:39:13,119
Speaker 1: I still don't trust the Jets offensive line until I've

3037
02:39:13,120 --> 02:39:13,400
Speaker 1: seen it.

3038
02:39:13,440 --> 02:39:13,760
Speaker 3: Happen.

3039
02:39:14,480 --> 02:39:17,080
Speaker 1: So that's and Trent Williams. I asked George Kittle last

3040
02:39:17,080 --> 02:39:20,480
Speaker 1: week about Trent and any concerns, and he said, he's like,

3041
02:39:20,520 --> 02:39:21,920
Speaker 1: he's a hall of famer. The preps like a hall

3042
02:39:21,920 --> 02:39:24,520
Speaker 1: of famer. Every day, nobody works harder. I still believe that.

3043
02:39:24,600 --> 02:39:26,320
Speaker 1: So I think the forty nine is going to be

3044
02:39:26,360 --> 02:39:28,120
Speaker 1: just fine. All this contract stuff they're used to. It

3045
02:39:28,120 --> 02:39:30,600
Speaker 1: happens every year. Every year the forty nine ers have holdouts.

3046
02:39:30,720 --> 02:39:32,440
Speaker 1: Every year they get him signed. We need to stop

3047
02:39:32,480 --> 02:39:34,080
Speaker 1: talking about it like it's a big deal, because it's

3048
02:39:34,120 --> 02:39:34,959
Speaker 1: not a big deal to them.

3049
02:39:35,320 --> 02:39:37,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the whole out thing I get. I just I

3050
02:39:37,800 --> 02:39:42,320
Speaker 2: don't know something about them. Maybe it's the Super Bowl loss, right,

3051
02:39:42,800 --> 02:39:44,840
Speaker 2: you know? Is there some sort of hangover? I mean

3052
02:39:44,879 --> 02:39:48,280
Speaker 2: that's been real, that's been kind of proven. So but

3053
02:39:48,400 --> 02:39:52,160
Speaker 2: we'll see. FITZI, this is it. Good luck to your raiders,

3054
02:39:52,200 --> 02:39:54,600
Speaker 2: all right, We love you, buddy, enjoyed. All the football

3055
02:39:54,920 --> 02:39:55,760
Speaker 2: fellas are out.
