11
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 2: partner and friend, Bucky Brooks. Hello, fuck, I of your week.

12
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: Man.

13
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 3: Has been a great week man, A very exciting weekend ahead,

14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 3: very su slate of games that we have today.

15
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 1: I'm really uh looking men, I'm looking forward to all

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: of it. You know.

17
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: It's funny. I wish I had your upbeat personality because

18
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: I'm like a Debbie Downer. Really, I mean, I'm so

19
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: depressed right now because it's coming to an end. I

20
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: get it. It's like a crescendo. You got the championship

21
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: matchups today, you got the Super Bowl come right down

22
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 2: the road, and then it's over and I go nuts. Really,

23
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: I'm proposing right now, and tell me I'm crazy. I

24
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: can handle it. I can. I'm proposing that after the

25
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, maybe wait a month, maybe six weeks, whatever

26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 2: it may be, start a second season, a second season,

27
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 2: because I can't live without it. Sundays basically are reserved

28
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: for football. I know it's Monday, and it's Thursday, and

29
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 2: sometimes it's Saturday and around Christmas time. But after football

30
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: it's kind of a void. I mean, there's really if

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: I love basketball, I do. I love college basketball, I

32
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: love the NBA, but it's not the same as football.

33
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 2: For whatever the reason, I don't know what it is.

34
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: There's something about football that makes my body tingle. That's

35
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: what it's all about.

36
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: Really, I mean, I'm glad to hear that your body's

37
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 3: tingling about football. It's a fantastic thing. But you got

38
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 3: to remember, Andy, like, look, there's this season. Then the

39
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 3: off season brings us the draft and all the other things. So, yeah,

40
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: the draft gives us an opportunity to kind of kind

41
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: of get it together and kind of like hope that

42
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 3: all things are going to turn out the right way.

43
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, And it's also a hope it's hope

44
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,679
Speaker 2: for those teams that basically missed the playoffs. And look,

45
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 2: here's a situation that maybe our future will be a

46
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: lot brighter. And look, I mean it's happened. It's happening.

47
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: The teams at the Detroit Lions. Boy that they hit

48
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: a home run in the draft. So hey, you're probably right.

49
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 2: And before you know it, it's time. They're going to

50
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 2: training camp in July, and you know, it starts all

51
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 2: over again. But I think the big story, at least

52
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 2: right now, prior to these games today is Bill Belichick.

53
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: It's gotta be the big story right now. There are

54
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: two coaching openings right now in Washington and Seattle. And

55
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: my question to you, mister Brooks, right now is why

56
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 2: would a team fire a coach or make them get out,

57
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: clean out his desk, draw and get out of there

58
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: if you don't have an immediate replacement. I mean teams

59
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: like Washington and Seattle. Okay, they I guess it was

60
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: a mutual thing, they say with Pete Carroll in Seattle.

61
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: But who knows he's gone. That's the point. And you

62
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 2: know management knew they were gonna let him go, or

63
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 2: he was going to go if they're let a guy go. Oh,

64
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: when you have a guy in the wings ready to

65
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: come in and replace him, Why why would they be

66
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 2: such avoid and they wait so long to hire somebody

67
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: that I don't understand.

68
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: Well, the thing that you would like to hope for,

69
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: there's still four teams that are playing.

70
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: If you think about that, these are the four best

71
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: teams in.

72
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 3: The National Football League, you would like to think that

73
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 3: some of these coordinators and some of the coaches off

74
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: of these staffs are worthy enough to be head coaching candidates.

75
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: Maybe both franchises that you're talking about are waiting from

76
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: somebody from these staffs that are remaining.

77
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: To interview for the job, so maybe they can hand

78
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: them the job.

79
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 2: Good point. Okay, you answer my question.

80
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 4: I get it.

81
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: Okay, that's no problem. Then now the next question is

82
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 2: how come Bill Belichick is not hired? Okay, in my mind,

83
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 2: they say there's several reasons. Obviously, his age longevity's like

84
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 2: seventy one, and I don't think that's old as far

85
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: as coaching is concerned. But I think management of various

86
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: teams want a guy to stay there for a while.

87
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 2: I don't think management saying that he can't relate to

88
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: the younger players. I don't think that's true, but I

89
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 2: think they think that he only may stay a year

90
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 2: or two. He wants to get that record from Don

91
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: Shula and pack it in. Or maybe it's the power

92
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 2: situation that he wants control, and I say he deserves it.

93
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: Do you think he deserves that power and control that

94
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: he had in New England if it goes to another team.

95
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 3: I think it's hard for another team to kind of

96
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,239
Speaker 3: give him everything that he wants or what he had

97
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 3: in New England, just given.

98
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: The last few seasons.

99
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 3: People who talk about the question of drafts, people who

100
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 3: talk about the lack of the quarterback development. Unfortunately, people

101
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 3: who are hiring may get caught up in the decision

102
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 3: and kind of the narrative about the Tom Brady thing,

103
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick with Tom Brady, Bill Belichick without Tom Brady

104
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 3: and those things. It was going to be hard for

105
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick to have a situation where he was able

106
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 3: to control everything like he controlled it in New England,

107
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 3: just given I would say the cold nature that New

108
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: England had and the lack of success that some of

109
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 3: the guys from his staff had. Remember, it's not just

110
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick. Who was trying to go at it. Let's

111
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 3: look at the play the coaches that came before him.

112
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: Josh McDaniels fell twice as a head coach. Bill o'bryant's

113
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 3: tenure was okay in Houston, Romeo Crenell didn't make it.

114
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 3: Eric Mangini had a tough time. Matt Patricia. I mean,

115
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 3: the list goes on and on, from coaches who were

116
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: supposed to bring the new England Patriots structure, the Patriot

117
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: Way to franchises where it didn't work out. I think

118
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 3: that track record, plus knowing that they would have to

119
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 3: relinquish all control to him, I think they played heavily

120
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: in the decisions that were made by teams to move

121
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 3: forward without Bill Belichick as their coach.

122
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 2: Okay, can you see a scenario now that Bill Belichick,

123
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: who cannot knock the door down to get a head

124
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 2: coaching job, maybe becomes an assistant. I heard some with

125
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 2: surs that maybe Sean McVay would be looking to hire

126
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick as a defensive coordinator. I don't see that happening.

127
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: I don't see it's that. To me, I'd rather just

128
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 2: pack it in and retire than come back with I

129
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 2: think you look like you're desperate if you're coming back

130
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 2: as a decoordinator or as an assistant coach.

131
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that happens. I can't see the

132
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: scenario where Bioll Belichick takes that approach where he's going

133
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 3: to be an assistant coach that is trying to do it. Yeah,

134
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 3: that to me, that doesn't factor into the plans. I

135
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 3: think he'll sit and wait, He'll do TV, he'll do

136
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: some media stuff for like a year, and then you

137
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 3: wouldn't look and see what the cycle looks like in

138
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, Remember twenty twenty five, Dallas Cowboys job

139
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: could be open. Every year they're about Jets job too,

140
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 3: He'll have Jets job could be open. He'll have opportunities

141
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 3: if he sits and waits, provide he still has good

142
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 3: health and all a willingness to do it, He'll have

143
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 3: plenty of opportunities to be able to get some of

144
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: that stuff done.

145
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 2: Okay, this is what I'm hearing, all right, and I

146
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: may be way, but I'm hearing this that when Kansas

147
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 2: City the Chiefs are eliminated, whenever, that may be today,

148
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: super Bowl, whatever, Andy Reid's going to retire and Bill

149
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 2: Belichick's going to coach the Kansas City Chiefs. That's what

150
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: I'm hearing.

151
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: What do you think that would make sense?

152
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 3: Because they run two different programs, Like the way that

153
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 3: Andy Reid operates the program in Kansas City is vastly

154
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 3: different than the way that.

155
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick runs it.

156
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 3: And remember the Kansas City Chiefs had similar Patriot Way

157
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: vibes when Scott Peeley was the general manager and it

158
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: didn't go well for them. I can't see them running

159
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: to do that all over again. I don't think there's

160
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 3: any legs there are any legs in that one.

161
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I'm going to just bury that in

162
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: the corner. But if that happens, I'm going to stick

163
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: my chest down and say I told you so. Now, next, last,

164
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: but not last, but not least, we said that two

165
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: jobs are open, Seattle Washington. I think if Bill Belichick

166
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: was offered both those positions, he'd rather go to Washington.

167
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: Why do I say that? He realized now over the

168
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 2: lesser years, you can't win without a quarterback, and Washington

169
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 2: is gonna have the number two pick in the draft,

170
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: which obviously is going to be a quarterback pick. I

171
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: think Washington would be his best bet.

172
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Washingt would get the oportunity to get a quarterback.

173
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 3: Then it's about picking the right quarterback for him. It's

174
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: an historic franchise. He is a guy who pays attention

175
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 3: to history. It would appear to be a great fit.

176
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 3: But does Washington want to do that? Does Adam Peters

177
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 3: want to go down de road? Adam Peters taking over

178
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: first time GM taking over. He used to work in

179
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: New England. Does he want to welcome that into his franchise?

180
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 3: You know, can he all of a sudden go from

181
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 3: being the mentor to being in charge? You know, sometimes

182
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: it's hard to student pupil relationship when it flips. I

183
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: don't know if he would be willing to sign up

184
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: for that so quickly his first time running an organization.

185
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 2: You know, Washington is not a bad deal. Obviously we

186
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: talked about the number two pick, which be a quarterback.

187
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: But that division that they're in is not really that strong.

188
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: You got Dallas the obviously, Philadelphia's kind of right now.

189
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: They're in flux right now. I don't know what's going

190
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 2: on with the Eagles. But other than that, I mean

191
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: that that division can be had. The Giants are terrible.

192
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: I mean, I really think there's a possibility that it's

193
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: a weak division. I remember several years ago, but the

194
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 2: teams are getting into the playoffs were like seven and

195
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 2: nine records. It's not good. I mean he's got a

196
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 2: shot there.

197
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does have a shot there. No, it's not

198
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 3: a good it's not a great division. It's one that

199
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 3: does require a lot of that can be flipped pretty quickly.

200
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: They have a nucleus in place where you could get

201
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: it done.

202
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 3: You think about their defensive lineman Deron Payne and Jonathan Allen,

203
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 3: some of the other pieces they have on offense. You

204
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 3: certainly have a foundation that could, I say, maybe reverse

205
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 3: fortunes fairly quickly.

206
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: What do you think, I mean, you'll take on Bill

207
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: Belichicker because you're real close to the ground in the NFL.

208
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: What's happening?

209
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: What do you think? Look, I think he's a great coach.

210
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 3: I think he deserves, not deserves, I think he's worthy

211
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 3: of being one the thirty two coaches in the league.

212
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: That's it.

213
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 3: The people who are doing the hiring would be slow

214
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 3: to releave rich control or slow to bring him in,

215
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 3: because when he comes in, he's going to expose everything

216
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 3: about the organization. He's going to be the truth teller.

217
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 3: He's going to tell you he's had enough success that

218
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 3: he can't command considerable power. I think sometimes when you're hiring,

219
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: you don't want to bring someone in who has that

220
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 3: much power because it puts your position, it puts the

221
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 3: power that you currently have, it puts it in jeopardy.

222
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 3: He also is working against those factors.

223
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 2: It amazes me, you know, really, when you think about it,

224
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 2: what he has done, I would say here and now

225
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 2: that he probably is the greatest coach of all time

226
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 2: in the National Football League. And for him to be

227
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 2: looking from the outside in that he can't get a job,

228
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 2: I'm shocked. I'm shocked. Really, I would think they'd be

229
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 2: knocking on his door calling him twenty four to seven,

230
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 2: say come on in here. But I think that the

231
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: last several years maybe heard him tarnish him a little bit,

232
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 2: realizing saying, well, he couldn't win without Tom Brady was

233
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 2: Brady and the power of the power structure. I mean, really,

234
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 2: I just cannot believe there's not one team out there

235
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: that's going to hire him, although maybe he has been

236
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: offered and he said no, we don't know that, right.

237
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 2: Maybe they said, look, we'll let your coach, but you know,

238
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 2: you're not making any decisions as far as personnel. We

239
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 2: don't know that.

240
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 3: I mean, you're right, we don't know that part of it.

241
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 3: And the personnel thing is significant. It's something that you

242
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: have to kind of talk about and you wonder how

243
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 3: much power is necessary for you to be the head coach.

244
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 3: And also if you're Bill Belichick, remember he doesn't have

245
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 3: to do this, you know, and maybe he doesn't want

246
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 3: to step into a situation where he doesn't have the

247
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 3: control to do it the way that he wants to

248
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,719
Speaker 3: get it done. No different than Nick Saban taking over

249
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 3: a college program and being asked or demanding no, no, no,

250
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 3: If I'm gonna take this over, here's what I need,

251
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 3: you know. And you have to give him that because

252
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 3: he needs those things to be as successful as he

253
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 3: has been. And why would you relinquish all with that

254
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 3: when you have six Super Bowl rings and no one,

255
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 3: no one else in the football world is close to

256
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 3: having the level of success that you've had.

257
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a sham because I'd love to see him

258
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 2: break the Dawn Shuler record. He don't get a job

259
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 2: he's not going to get that done. I would say this,

260
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 2: I think if the record was already broken and he

261
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: left New England, he'd retired, just go out into the

262
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: sunset and that's it. But the fact that record is

263
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: kind of bugging him. He wants that record. He's like

264
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: sixteen wins and that'll take him at least two more

265
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 2: years to coach to get that record, dependent upon what

266
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: team he goes to.

267
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, it may be that we can talk about

268
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 3: the all time wins record. I think what's more significant

269
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: as the fact that he's a six time super Bowl champion.

270
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 3: You know. Look, I love to be the all time

271
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 3: leader or whatever. Like his legacy as the greatest coach

272
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 3: of all time is already submitted because he's had an

273
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 3: unparallel amount of success as a team builder. Whether he

274
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 3: gets it or not, whether he coaches another down to

275
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 3: that he already has earned goat status is really about

276
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: trying to find the right situation for him. And I

277
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 3: will say the longer he is away, the harder it's

278
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 3: going to be for him to get one of those gigs.

279
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 2: Well, I'd love to see him get it, but I'm

280
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,079
Speaker 2: still hoping that Kansas City situation. That's that's a possibility,

281
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: but we'll see. All right, he's Bucky Brooks. You get

282
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 2: him on X, get him on Twitter, whatever you want

283
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: to do at Bucky Brooks at Andy Furman FSR. And

284
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 2: if you want to get on there, say something intelligent,

285
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 2: we'll read it, we'll retweet it, we'll re exit. Maybe

286
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 2: it's called re exit instead of retweeting. However, Mike Harmon

287

Speaker 2: get in there and delve into it and get some

324
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: questions answered. Here, you played the game, let's talk offensive coordinators.

325
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: How many do you know share the play calling during

326
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: the course of a game.

327
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: Look, it may be significant.

328
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 3: I think we never know, but I will tell you

329
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 3: that in today's game, when you have so many guys

330
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 3: at are quarterback gurus and past game officionados, a lot

331
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 3: of time when it comes to the running game, they

332
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 3: really rely on the O line coach or the running

333
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: backs coach to determine when and what play the call

334
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 3: when it's time to run it, put it on the ground.

335
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 3: So it's not uncommon for them to split it in

336
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 3: those regards to have a collaborative effort, even though they're

337
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 3: the ones with the call sheet.

338
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: Interesting because Brian Callahan was named offensive coin they're in Cincinnati,

339
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: but the head coach, Zach Taylor, called to play now.

340
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: He was named head coach in Tennessee just the other day,

341
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: and he said it as introductory news conference that the

342
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: way we worked in Cincinnati was very collaborative. He said,

343
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: I've been with Zach for five years, working with him

344
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 2: as a primary play caller and me as the offensive coordinator.

345
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: I really feel great about the process. I don't understand

346
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 2: what that means. Primary play caller. So Zach Taylor had

347
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: the funnel ward of what play is going to be run,

348
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 2: and he was the offensive coordinator. So he'll tell Zach, Zach,

349
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 2: I see this weakness in the defense, maybe you want

350
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 2: to call this play no.

351
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 3: So, going all the way back to my time with

352
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 3: the Green Bay package, when Mike Holmgren was the coach,

353
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 3: Mike Hogan was the coach, Sherm Lewis was the offensive coordinator.

354
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 3: There were other people that set it in the meeting

355
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 3: room like Steve Marucci and others. But the way that

356
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: it went down, the coordinator does exactly what the title says.

357
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: He coordinates all the efforts.

358
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 3: So he takes input from the running game guru, the

359
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: passing game, the offensive concepts that you like, ties it

360
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 3: all together, may install the offensive game plan in the meetings,

361
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 3: meaning he is the guy who is running the meetings

362
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: telling the team the offensive unit, here's what we're going

363
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 3: to do this week. Here what the plays look like.

364
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 3: Here's how these plays should look. But the primary play

365
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 3: caller and the head coach, he will come in when

366
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,719
Speaker 3: it's time to make it happen in practice. So what

367
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 3: it does by having an offensive coordinator, the head coach

368
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 3: now can kind of float around a little bit, spend

369
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 3: some time in the defensive rooms, spend some time worrying

370
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 3: about other parts of the team. But then as you

371
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 3: get later in the weekend, we're beginning to put the

372
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 3: offense together. On the practice field Thursday, Friday, Saturday, they're

373
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 3: kind of overseeing it. They're going through the scripts, and

374
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 3: then on Sunday it's their show. I meaning the primary

375
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,719
Speaker 3: play caller is calling it with input from the offensive coordinator.

376
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 3: A I like this one right here, Coach, I like

377
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 3: this one on third down. This is what we have.

378
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 3: So it's a back and forth effort, but the primary

379
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 3: play caller is the one that's getting it done.

380
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: Okay. So at the news conference the other day in Nashville, Tennis,

381
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 2: see Brian Callahan, the new coach that he intends to

382
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 2: call the plays on offense this year. He's entering his

383
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 2: fourteenth year of coaching in the NFL. Last five years

384
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati's offensive coordinator is mentioned. But Callahan didn't call

385
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 2: the plays in Cincinnati, so that had to be a

386
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 2: big thing in his mind why he accepted the job. Look,

387
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 2: I know everybody wants to be a head coach. That's

388
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 2: basically the goal. If you're an assistant, you want to

389
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 2: run your own show and prove to people that you

390
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 2: could get it done. But I think that if he

391
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 2: could have called the place in Cincinnati, he may have stayed.

392
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 2: And why do I say that. I don't think you

393
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: normally pack up and leave. If you have a franchise

394
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 2: quarterback on offense, and they have one in Cincinnati, they

395
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 2: don't really have one in Tennessee.

396
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 3: Now you pack up and leave. Anytime you'd offer a

397
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 3: hair job, you have to take the job. It's one

398
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 3: of only thirty two. And it's no guarantee that when

399
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 3: you get offered one one cycle that you can get

400
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 3: offered another one the next cycle. When I think about

401
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 3: all the coaches that were hot candidates, you know, Eric

402
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 3: be Enemy being a high candidate at one time, hasn't

403
00:18:58,560 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 3: been able to get.

404
00:18:59,080 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 1: A head job.

405
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 3: You can never secure the deal. You think about some

406
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 3: of the others that have been able to go. Aryl

407
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 3: Austin was a high candidate at one point for the

408
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Sills defense coordinator. He had bounced around and had interviews,

409
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 3: but never could get the job. When you are offered

410
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 3: a job, you take one of those jobs because it's

411
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 3: so hard to get and then you find a way

412
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 3: to make it right. And what I think most head

413
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 3: coaches have to enter every situation thinking, I have to

414
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 3: win with the team as presently constructed until I can

415
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 3: build the team the way that I want it. I

416
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: may not have a franchise quarterback. How can I build

417
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 3: this team to win temporarily without a franchise quarterback until

418
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 3: I can identify one.

419
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: That would take us to the next level.

420
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 3: As much as I love Joe Burrow and what the

421
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 3: Bengals have, Brian Callahan would have been foolish to stay

422
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 3: in that situation. If he had a head job that

423
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: was a solid situation with a solid ownership group and

424
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: general manager.

425
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: You don't turn down those opportunities.

426
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 2: Okay, I hear what you're saying, and certainly, head coach,

427
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 2: that's would you strive to do if you're an assistant.

428
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 2: But Zach Taylor, the head coach of the Bengals, he

429
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 2: claimed after the hire was made in Tennessee that he

430
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 2: would have let Callahan call the plays this year. So

431
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 2: that tells me that he would have been callahan more

432
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 2: power if Callahan were to stay and he hired. Now

433
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 2: he just brought up on his chart. Dan Pitcher is

434
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 2: going to be the offensive coordinator who's been with the

435
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 2: Bengals for a while, so he gets a promotion right now.

436
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 2: But he'll fill the role that Callahan didn't. Certainly, Zach

437
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: Taylor's still going to call the place.

438
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just the same thing. As much as

439
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: like Zach Taylor would would would would say.

440
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: Hey man, I love Brian. I would have let him.

441
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 3: Call plays and those things, and he probably would have

442
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 3: allowed him to call plays. He selfishly would do it

443
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,959
Speaker 3: because he wants to keep a good coach on his

444
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 3: staff right here, Brian Callahan, Like, that's great. And let's

445
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 3: just say a troubling situation that you would be stepping into.

446
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 3: Let's say, for instance, the Carolina Panthers had offered Callahan

447
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 3: the job and he just didn't like what appeared to

448
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 3: be a meddling owner and David Tepp, well, maybe in

449
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 3: that instance, you decline the opportunity to take that job,

450
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 3: and you stay in Cincinnati, you call plays for a year,

451
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 3: and then you go back because you think Cincinnati is

452
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 3: going to continue to be a viable contend to continue

453
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 3: to be a playoff participant where you're going to get

454
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 3: enough attention to merit some consideration as a head coach.

455
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 3: But otherwise, man a stable situation Tennessee. You've seen people

456
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 3: win in Tennessee, Ran Carthon, someone who you may have

457
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 3: some connections and ties to.

458
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: You have to take that opportunity, right.

459
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 2: And now this is coming to a head, maybe only

460
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 2: in my mind it is, But Taylor Callahan was valuable

461
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 2: in game planning. So if you're valuable valuable in the

462
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 2: game planning, shouldn't a game plan to call the plays?

463
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 2: I mean that that makes sense to me.

464
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: No, that's not always like that.

465
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 3: You know, you can be valuable in that situation as

466
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 3: a game planner, but still not merit the right kind

467
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 3: of consideration when it comes to calling the plays. It's

468
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 3: a completely different ballgame. And I'll tell you this. Play

469
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: calling is an art form. Play calling is the ability

470
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 3: to sequence your play calls where you not only take

471
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 3: advantage of what the defense is doing, but you set

472
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 3: up things that they're going to do in reaction to

473
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 3: the stuff that you're doing to create big play opportunities.

474
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: And so there's this free flowing art to being able

475
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: to do it and everybody doesn't possess it. So I

476
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 3: give him credit for acknowledging that, but it's something that's

477
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 3: hard to do, and I think also for Brian Ellen,

478
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 3: this will be something that would be a challenge because.

479
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: It's also when you become the head coach.

480
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 3: You have to be involved in all three phases, but

481
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: you are now taking on the challenge of being the

482
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 3: play caller. It is hard to manage and handle all

483
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 3: those duties when you're a newbie at that situation, new

484
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 3: play calling, new head coach. His defensive coordinator needs to

485
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 3: be an experienced defensive coordinator who can completely run that

486
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 3: side of the ball, so he can be the head

487
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 3: coach coach with a heavy emphasis on how the offense

488
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 3: is running.

489
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: If that makes sense at all.

490
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 2: Right, and a play call up maybe in my mind, look,

491
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 2: you played the game, so you could tell me. You

492
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 2: have to be quick on your feet. You have to adapt,

493
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 2: you know, a game plan or planning. You know, I

494
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 2: could sit in my office on a Thursday and Friday

495
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 2: and plan, but when you're on the sidelines with the

496
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 2: headphones on, you got to make that decision like right now,

497
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 2: right now. That's how people can't do it. I would

498
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 2: think you would say it's an art form, but.

499
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: No, it takes a while.

500
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 3: It takes a while to master that because look, the

501
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 3: play clock is going. You have to be able to

502
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 3: think one step ahead of the opponent while also navigating time, score, situation.

503
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 2: All right, Last, but not least, Zach Taylor calls the

504
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,719
Speaker 2: plays from field level as opposed to the booth. I've

505
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 2: always thought you'd get a better angle, better view of

506
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 2: what's going on from the booth. I don't understand why

507
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 2: he would do it from the field.

508
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 3: Well, you want to do it from the field because

509
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 3: you want interaction from the players. You won't feedback directly

510
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 3: from the players. Even though it's a very quiet and

511
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 3: calm environment up in the press box. You lose the

512
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,880
Speaker 3: feel for being able to engage with the players right

513
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 3: on the field. As the head coach, there's no you

514
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 3: can't go to pressbot. You're the head coach. Head coach,

515
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 3: you got to be on the field. You got to

516
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 3: be on the field to manage all the situations. So

517
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 3: even though you can clearly see things from up top,

518
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 3: it is better for the communications when the coordinator is

519
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 3: on the field. Think about Steve Wilkes in the situation

520
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 3: they had with the San Francisco forty nine ers early

521
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 3: in the year, Kyle Shanahan asked him to come down

522
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 3: to the field because there were some communication issues with

523
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 3: the linebackers. They wanted communication, direct feedback. You don't get

524
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 3: that instantaneously when the coordinator's up in the booth.

525
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 2: Got you all right? He's Bucky Brooks answered all the questions.

526
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Ferman. We are Fox Football Sunny and Fox

527
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 2: Books Radio. The question is, right now, what makes this

528
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 2: coach so good? That's coming up next on Fox Live

529
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: from the Tyrock dot Com studios. But first, our guy

530
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: Heaven Wyatt with all your sports.

531
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got a live sporting event going on right now,

532
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 4: the Australian Open Men's singles final match. They're currently in

533
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 4: the fourth set and Neil Medvedev with a two sets

534
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 4: to one lead over Janick Sinnaire as he won the

535
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 4: first two sets, did Medvedev sixty three six to three scenario,

536
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 4: won eight, six to four in the third set, and

537
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 4: they're currently tied in set number four, three games apiece.

538
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 4: It is the best three out of five match, so

539
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 4: Medvedev can't take this with winning one more set, so

540
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 4: we'll see how that plays out here in the NBA.

541
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 4: On Saturday night, probably the game of the season, Lakers

542
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 4: and Golden State Warriors, Relly wins at one forty five

543
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 4: fours Lebron James with a couple of late free throws

544
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 4: to seal the win. He ended up with thirty six points,

545
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 4: twenty rebounds, which is a career high, and twelve assists.

546
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 4: He is the oldest player in NBA history with a

547
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 4: thirty five plus point, twenty plus rebound and ten plus

548
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 4: assist triple double. Clippers making eight wins in nine games

549
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 4: after they beat the Boston Celtics won fifteen ninety six

550
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 4: Knicks on a roll. They've won sixth straight after a

551
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 4: one to twenty five to one to oh nine win

552
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 4: against the Miami Heat, and they're going to the opposite

553
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 4: direction is Miami. They've dropped six games in a row.

554
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 4: Nuggets over the Sixers one eleven, one oh five. Philadelphia, however,

555
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 4: missing just about all their key players, including Joel Embiid,

556
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 4: Spurs over the Timberwolves in an upset one thirteen to

557
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,479
Speaker 4: one to twelve, Nets over the Rockets one o six,

558
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 4: one oh four. Wizards beat the Pistons one eighteen one

559
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 4: oh four NFL News. We got both championship games coming

560
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 4: up later today. One player who will not be playing

561
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 4: for the Lions Zach Ertz. They recently signed him, but

562
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 4: they will not be activating him for today's game against

563
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 4: the forty nine Ers. Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Tony still

564
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 4: dealing with the hip issues, so he will miss Sunday's

565
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 4: game against the Baltimore Ravens. And the weather forecast for

566
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 4: each game San Francisco and no rain is in the forecast,

567
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 4: so the conditions look to be fairly ideal. There is

568
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 4: some chance of rain in Baltimore, where the temperature is

569
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 4: going to be in the forty Some coaching updates. The

00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 2: iHeartRadio Act. Now, we got asked Bucky in about seven

589
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 2: eight minutes for now, but Jim Harborugh Lee's Michigan to

590
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 2: coach the LA Chargers, right as that's a big story.

591
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: People in Michigan are gone crazy. Maybe people in Columbus,

592
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 2: Ohio are loving itplis. Maybe now Ohio State could possibly

593
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 2: beat Michigan. All right, Buck, I looked at his record.

594
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 2: I mean this guy was born to coach. I know

595
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 2: his daddy coach at Western Kentucky's brother coaches the Ravens.

596
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 2: Twenty eleven with the forty nine is thirteen and three,

597
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 2: twenty twelve, forty nine is eleven four and one, twenty

598
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 2: thirteen with the forty nine ers twelve four to oh

599
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 2: twenty fourteen forty nine ers an eight and eight total

600
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 2: in the NFL forty four nineteen and one Stanford, he

601
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 2: was twenty nine and twenty one Michigan eighty nine and

602
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,239
Speaker 2: twenty five total one to eighteen and forty six. So

603
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 2: there are certain people who want to coach, and there

604
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: are certain people who were born to coach. I gotta

605
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: believe this guy had the jeans to be a coach.

606
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: Wherever he goes, he wins. I don't know how he

607
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: does it, what makes him so good.

608
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 3: He is. So we just spent the last segment talking

609
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 3: about offensive play calls. In those things, Jim Harbor is

610
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 3: a head coach. He's not just an offensive play call.

611
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 3: He's also not just a quarterback whispering guru. He understands

612
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 3: how to build a team that is built to last.

613
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: When you look at the teams that he has inherited

614
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: and taken over and how he's transformed him into two

615
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 3: winners and title contenders. He builds a level of He

616
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 3: makes sure that his teams have a level of toughness

617
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 3: and physicality that enabled them to eventually be the bullies

618
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: on the block. He believes in dominant, dominant play in

619
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 3: the trenches. They're going to be super physical on the

620
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 3: offensive and defensive lines. They're gonna have an identity because

621
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 3: they're gonna be power based football teams, exotic smash mouth

622
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 3: as he would term it. And then he is going

623
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,959
Speaker 3: to make the game easy for the quarterback because when

624
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 3: you run the football, and I know every one loves

625
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 3: the thought of the quarterback throwing it all over the

626
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 3: yard forty times a game, but when you run the football,

627
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 3: you make the game easy for the quarterback because on

628
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 3: play action, the holes and windows are bigger for him.

629
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 3: So bigger windows lead to better efficiency, more effectiveness. Now

630
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 3: the quarterback is confident, and it just gives you an

631
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: opportunity to have so much success on offense because you're

632
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 3: using your offense not only to score points, but you're

633
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 3: using it as your best defense to keep the opponent

634
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 3: on the sideline.

635
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: He just understands that.

636
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 3: He gets it in a major way, and guys love

637
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 3: playing for him. Even though he's a grinded out type coach.

638
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 2: And I gotta believe Justin Herbert's thrilled to have a

639
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 2: guy like him coaching him.

640
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, why wouldn't you like so for him,

641
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 3: it's a double thing. Remember, and what we're seeing in

642
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 3: these hires, how many of these guys have been former players.

643
00:30:54,680 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 3: So you think about Jiromeo, Antonio Pierce, all former players.

644
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 3: So there's a connection and instant credibility that you possess

645
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 3: when you stand in front of the team having walked

646
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 3: in those shoes. Jimba Hartwell has walked in those shoes

647
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 3: for the Chargers. He's done the lightning bolt. He's had

648
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 3: success as a quarterback.

649
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: Of that team. They've seen his success.

650
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 3: They've also seen his success not only as a college coach,

651
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 3: but as a pro coach. He has their ear when

652
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 3: he steps in, they know it, he feels it. Now

653
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 3: his job is to kind of breathe life and confidence

654
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 3: into a team that's been close, but they're missing just.

655
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: That little edge. He will give them that edge because

656
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: he's one of the best coaches that we've seen.

657
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 2: Okay, you mentioned something right there and I listened with

658
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 2: both ears. That's why God gave me two ears, you know,

659
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: on only one mouth because I want to listen. He

660
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 2: said he was a successful guy, successful coach on the

661
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 2: pro level. In the college level, How difficult is that

662
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 2: because not many guys had Nick Saban didn't get it

663
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 2: done in Miami when it coached to Dolphins. Okay, Pete

664
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 2: Carroll was successful USC and in the pros. It's difficult.

665
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: What makes it so if you're a coach. You're a coach.

666
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 2: What makes it so difficult? You can't be successful at

667
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 2: both levels.

668
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: In college, it's a dictatorship. I'm the coach, you're the players.

669
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,959
Speaker 1: You kind of do as I say and do. In

670
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: the pros, it's more of a democracy partnership.

671
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 3: Hey, man, I got suggestions, but I need you guys

672
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 3: to be on board. You gotta believe in my vision.

673
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 3: If you believe in what we're doing, not only will

674
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 3: we win, but individually you will benefit big paydays, big contracts,

675
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 3: whether it's with us or somewhere else. Hey, if you

676
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 3: listen me, if you're with me, it'll be mutually beneficial

677
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 3: for everybody involved. He understands how to build that culture

678
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 3: because in the pros it's different. So all the fairytale

679
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 3: stuff that you've had heard about teams and we're going

680
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 3: to sacrifice ourselves for our brothers.

681
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: And YadA, YadA, YadA.

682
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 3: When in the pros you deal them with fifty three

683
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 3: independent contractors who are responsible for their own plight, who

684
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 3: are looking out to benefit themselves and their families on

685
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 3: a personal level. So you have fifty three guys come

686
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 3: on board, you have to show them tangible proof that

687
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 3: if you make this sacrifice, here's how it will benefit

688
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 3: you personally down the road. Most coaches that have struggled

689
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 3: going from college to pros and that have been unable

690
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 3: or unwilling to have that conversation or to build those

691
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 3: connections that will allow those things to happen.

692
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 2: Okay, what is his loss to Michigan do to that

693
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 2: Michigan football program?

694
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 7: Uh?

695
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 3: Look, man, I think Sharan Wore is a really good coach.

696
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 3: I would envision this being very similar to what Stanford

697
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 3: looked like when David Shaw took over. There is no

698
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 3: immediate decline. When David Shaw took over, they went to

699
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 3: even higher heights. The difference is in Sharon Moore. You're

700
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 3: getting an offensive line guy, a guru. The Michigan team

701
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 3: is built on trench play, So as long as he

702
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 3: is able to recruit great life, it retained the physicality

703
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 3: and toughness that they've had while building and continue to

704
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 3: extend the unified front that this team has. Oh, Michigan's

705
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 3: going to be there. They're built to last. It's just

706
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 3: a matter of Sharon Moore growing into the job and

707
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: the Michigan Athletic administration having enough patients to kind of

708
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 3: live through some of the growing pains that he's certainly

709
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 3: going to have as a first time head coach.

710
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 2: Okay, are they partying though Bucky in Columbus, Ohio for

711
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 2: Ohio State that he left.

712
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, I mean they're party because he had

713
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 3: dominated them. But now here's the thing. The persson is

714
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 3: really on Ryan Day in Ohio State right now. You

715
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 3: don't have a first time head coach who was one

716
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 3: to h you know, against the buck Eyes and the robbery.

717
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 3: They have to get it done. They're taking on all

718
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 3: these transfers and everybody else. I mean, they have a

719
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 3: collection of dream Team stars, you know, all stars on that.

720
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 3: If they're not able to get it done this year, man,

721
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 3: you talk about it just being very very difficult on

722
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 3: Ryan day, despite a sterling one lost record as a coach,

723
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 3: if he can't get it done against Michigan and win

724
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 3: some of these big games that put them back in

725
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 3: the National title game, it's gonna be hard for him.

726
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna be hard for the buck guys.

727
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 2: There you go. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Fermer. We

Speaker 2: I'm not gonna sing though, I promise, all right, but

738
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 2: I asked Bucky's coming right up. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm

00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: Yes, here we go?

742
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 5: Do it.

743
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 2: You know I've done this for you and especially if

744
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 2: you we're gonna preview the best possible Super Bowl matchups.

745
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: I'll give you the four possible matchups, your take on

746
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 2: each one of a possible matchup. Number one, forty nine

747
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 2: is against the Chiefs.

748
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 3: Who I mean, that's a nice one. That's probably the

749
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 3: best one.

750
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 2: I like that one, all right. Any reason why?

751
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 3: Look, the forty nine is the Chiefs is a rematch,

752
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 3: And if you go back and think about the rematch

753
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 3: the time they matched up before in the Super Bowl

754
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 3: a few years ago, the forty nine Ers had the game.

755
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 3: They were controlling the game until Pat Mahomes kind of

756
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 3: found a way in the fourth quarter to bring them back,

757
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 3: and if not for a misconnection on the Emanuel Sanders

758
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 3: and Jimmy Garoppolo, maybe the Niners would have hoisted the

759
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 3: trophy that day.

760
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: There you go.

761
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 2: Lions Ravens a possibility.

762
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: Nice.

763
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 3: We've seen this in the regular season, even though the

764
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 3: Ravens absolutely beat them down. You talk about two tough,

765
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 3: gritty teams scoring it off. It'd be a very compelling

766
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 3: matchup because it'd be the Ravens defense versus the Lions offense.

767
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 1: And who would want to see that? Right?

768
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,320
Speaker 2: Forty nine Ers Ravens.

769
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 3: I mean, this is a rematch from years ago when

770
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: people say the lights some how it went out.

771
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: When the Ravens were doing it.

772
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 3: It allowed the forty nine Ers to come back, but

773
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 3: then it came down to an epic goal line stand.

774
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 3: This would be a nice matchup. You know, we saw

775
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 3: them play at the end of the regular season. We

776
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 3: saw the Baltimore Ravens absolutely dominate the forty nine Ers

777
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 3: and Brock Purdy didn't look like a big time quarterback

778
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 3: against them. Brock Paridy would have a chance to make

779
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,479
Speaker 3: amends for a dismal performance on a primetime game.

780
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 2: There you go, Lions Chiefs, which I don't want to

781
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 2: see that because we saw that in an opening night

782
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 2: in September on a Thursday, Lions Chiefs. It was a

783
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 2: good game twenty one to twenty, but I don't want

784
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: to see it again.

785
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, but this would be more compelling from a TV standpoint.

786
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift We're bringing all the Swifties, the detray Lions,

787
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 3: the underdog story to feel good part of it. In

788
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 3: terms of making storylines, it would be easy to make

789
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 3: a ton of storylines around that those two teams playing.

790
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. Now, you're pretty big on X factors.

791
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 2: I know you do your running for NFL dot Com

792
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 2: and you mentioned X factors in various games. The X

793
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 2: factors in today's games. Okay, the X factors maybe in

794
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 2: Chiefs Ravens Chiefs Ravens X factors in that game.

795
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 3: Mmm, Chiefs Ravens X factor. Let's go on the chief side. Look,

796
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 3: the X factor for the Chiefs is going to be

797
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 3: Rashive Rice. He's a number one receiver and Travis Kelce

798
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 3: had a nice game coming back. But the last four

799
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 3: or five weeks it all have been about Rice being

800
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 3: a number one receiver. So can Rice be a productive

801
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 3: receiver when Pat Mahomes needs it? This is a game

802
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 3: where the Chiefs are underdogs. They need big plays in

803
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 3: the past game, can Rice delivered the big plays that

804
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 3: this team needs?

805
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's see X factor Lions forty nine Ers game?

806
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 3: Well, the X factor now that we know he's going

807
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 3: to play with Deebo Samuel. And the reason why Deebo

808
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 3: Samuel is the X factor is because the Niners played

809
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 3: completely differently when he is available. This team dominates when

810
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel is a part of the X because it

811
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,800
Speaker 3: gives them a two headed interchangeable monster with Christian McCaffrey

812
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 3: and Deebo Samuel being able to play running back, wide

813
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,760
Speaker 3: receiver and kind of switch roles at a moment's notice.

814
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: With him on the.

815
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 3: Field, Yeah, it makes it more difficult for the lines

816
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 3: to defend the forty nine ers offense.

817
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: So you have to like that he's a big ex

818
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 1: factor in this game.

819
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 2: All right, Now, this may be the most difficult question

820
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 2: and maybe the most important question of the day. So

821
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 2: I say with for the last Okay, there's not going

822
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 2: to be any more football on Sunday nights. No football

823
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 2: on Monday night, no football on Thursday night. Certainly Sunday

824
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: is going to be gone. It's gonna be all over.

825
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 2: I'm getting depressed right now. I'm gonna start wearing black

826
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: the morning. Now I'm in morning. But the big question

827
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 2: for Bucky Brooks and many others right now, what are

828
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: you going to watch on TV? Now that there's no

829
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 2: more football on those nights?

830
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 3: At least this will be easy because now you just

831
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 3: transition into watching more basketball. So NBA basketball will kind

832
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 3: of jump into prominence. We'll go to college basketball, get

833
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 3: ready for March Madness. It's an easy transition. We'll start

834
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 3: ready enough sales for the draft. But in terms of TV,

835
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 3: it just shifts to NBA basketball, and eventually baseball will

836
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: come into the pitch.

837
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 2: You know, I hear what you're saying, and I'm going

838
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 2: to do the same. However, you know, there's something about

839
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,839
Speaker 2: the NFL where every game means so much. Although last

840
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 2: night watching the Golden State Warriors LA Lakers game really

841
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 2: somewhat meaningless. But obviously we saw what happened in the

842
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 2: overtime and Lebron at the age of what he is

843
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 2: out right now, what he did that triple double, twenty

844
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 2: rebounds and the points he scored. It was an amazing game,

845
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, it really didn't

846
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,359
Speaker 2: mean much. You know, it was great that they beat

847
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 2: Golden State, but other than that, it didn't really mean anything.

848
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 2: Where the NFL, those games means so much. I love

849
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: the one and done's like today. So that's where we're

850
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 2: at right now. But is it too early to talk

851
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,720
Speaker 2: about this, Well, we'll tell you. That's on Fox Football

852
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 2: Sunday coming up next. Bucky Brooks has it all figured

853
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 2: out yet? That's coming right up. This is Fox Football Sunday.

862
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 2: NFL dot com, which I love to get into, which

863
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 2: you ride every Friday on NFL dot com. Just screwed

864
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 2: down there where it says rids NFL riters and you

865
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 2: always have something interesting to say, right whatever, So I

866
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 2: got to ask you about this situation. We're just getting

867
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 2: out of hand right now. The Southeastern Conference, they find

868
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 2: the University of South Carolina one hundred thousand dollars the

869
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 2: other day for his fans storming the court after the game.

870
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 2: Cocks beat Kentucky seventy nine to sixty two, sixth rank

871
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 2: Kentucky the League of Nowns defined. I think it was Wednesday,

872
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 2: a day after South Carolina men's basketball team won that game.

873
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 2: Who's over the highest ranked opponent at home in fourteen years? Okay,

874
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 2: but that's number one. They finded that one hundred thousand there.

875
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 2: But last week I believe it was Ohio State women

876
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: playing Iowa and Caitlin Clark the store in Iowa. She

877
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,800
Speaker 2: was some do say trample, but she was run into.

878
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 2: After the game as Iowa lost to Ohio State, the

879
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 2: fans in Columbus, Ohio stormed the court there. There was

880
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 2: a storming of the court in Tulane. In Cincinnati U

881
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 2: s b TCU and they stormed the court in Cincinnati

882
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 2: number one. You know, I don't want to be one

883
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 2: of those again down her saying, oh, get off my lawn,

884
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 2: you can get hurt. I don't understand the logic here

885
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 2: where people just run down like in a Mayhem situation

886
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 2: and someone's obviously he's going to get hurt. And finally

887
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 2: someone came out the other day and say, yeah, we

888
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 2: got to stop this. Now someone's going to get really hurt.

889
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: You know, I don't see it. I remember back in

890
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: the day in college football they were doing it on

891
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 2: the field and they finally had to grease the polls,

892
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: the end zone polls because anyone anybody climbing up on them,

893
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 2: so they slipped down there. Remember that. I mean, it's crazy,

894
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 2: isn't it.

895
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is crazy.

896
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 3: And the reason why you want to have a controlled

897
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,120
Speaker 3: environment after games is because you just don't know when

898
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 3: you're a player where everyone.

899
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: Is coming from.

900
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 3: And ninety nine percent of the people that are rushing

901
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 3: the floor will do no harm to the players that

902
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 3: are in the floor. It's really the exubers and excitement

903
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 3: of being a part of what maybe some would deem

904
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,720
Speaker 3: in an historic moment. Right Normally you see people storm

905
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 3: the court after a big upset or a big win

906
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 3: over rival or those things. The problem that you have

907
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 3: is you just don't know if there is someone who

908
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 3: has bad intentions, and to allow a fan to have

909
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 3: that close contact with the player is dangerous, particularly when

910
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 3: you're the opposing team. So you want to control that.

911
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 3: You just don't know. And I know they have things

912
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,280
Speaker 3: where they check for weapons and all that other stuff

913
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,280
Speaker 3: like at the doors hopefully when they're entering the arena,

914
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 3: but you just don't know. And so your job as

915
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 3: the decision makers overseeing all of this safety of the players,

916
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 3: and so the number one thing is make sure everyone

917
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 3: that's involved in the action in the game on the court.

918
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 3: This make sure all those guys are protected. And the

919
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 3: best way to put TechEd them before and after the game,

920
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,880
Speaker 3: not allow fans to be onto the court.

921
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree way. And have you ever been involved

922
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 2: in a storming of the field situation in North Carolina

923
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: after a big win?

924
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:18,280
Speaker 3: Actually a few of them, but the one that stands out.

925
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 3: We were six four and one I think it was

926
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety Georgia Tech. We tied a ten ten game.

927
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 3: Georgia Tech went on to win a share of the

928
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 3: national title, and we did didn't want to share the

929
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 3: next title. They were number one or whatever with Bobby Ross.

930
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 3: Maybe they didn't win the national title, but they were

931
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,879
Speaker 3: top team. We knocked them off, and so they ran

932
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 3: onto the field. They took the goal posts, and so

933
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 3: if you know Chapel Hill, they took the goal post

934
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,439
Speaker 3: out of the stadium, and I guess they found them

935
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 3: on Franklin Street.

936
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: Like somehow they got them out of state.

937
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,840
Speaker 3: I don't know how you get them out of the stadium,

938
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 3: but they got the goal posts up out of there.

939
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 1: So that was the biggest win that I was.

940
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 3: Associated with, and so seeing that that was big time.

941
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 3: And did I think as a fan going to a

942
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 3: few Carolina basketball games?

943
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: I think Carolina Duke when Carolina may have beaten Duke.

944
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 3: I think we stormed the court number one versus number

945
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 3: two back in ninety one. Whatever Christen Lightenon was there,

946
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 3: I think it was a big event.

947
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 2: You know, And I get it. People are happy, they're excited.

948
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:19,840
Speaker 2: You know, you just want to show your emotions. But

949
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: again it's kind of like it's a dangerous situation. They

950
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 2: got to do something to it. And now with the

951
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 2: fines coming out there, maybe it'll stop. But look, I'm

952
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 2: not one's going to say, you know, don't do this,

953
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 2: don't do that, but just a safety factor. And then

954
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 2: when I watch these games on TV on the Four

955
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 2: Letter Network, these announcers A don't say a word about it,

956
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 2: or they're saying this is great. They're excited, they're exuberant.

957
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 2: They're no. No, I mean, you have the stage to

958
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 2: go out there and tell people this is wrong, it's dangerous.

959
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 2: But they don't have to do unis. They don't have

960
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 2: to hang it downs to say it.

961
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:56,399
Speaker 1: You know, No, they don't. And Andy I was right.

962
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,959
Speaker 3: Georgia Tech won a national title that year, nineteen ninety

963
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 3: They were eleven zero and one, and the team that

964
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,359
Speaker 3: they tied, the North Carolina tar Heels. We were six

965
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 3: four and one at the time. They shared a title

966
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 3: with Colorado. Colorado was eleven one and one. I think

967
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 3: Colorado had the crazy.

968
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: Thing in the orange bow when they had to do it.

969
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 3: But yeah, Georgia Tech and Colorado split the championship in

970
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:21,760
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety.

971
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 1: Who would have thought?

972
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 3: Who remembered that Georgia Tech was a dominant team like

973
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 3: that under Bobby Ross.

974
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 2: Wow, that's great, all right. Speaking of college athletics, D

975
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 2: Paul fired that basketball coach Tony Stubblefield the other day.

976
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 2: All right, he was head coach this city with three

977
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 2: and fifteen overall of to Paul twenty eight and fifty four.

978
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 2: I mean, really and truly, a once proud program goes

979
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,800
Speaker 2: down to twos. But you know the reasoning they gave,

980
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 2: at least in some circles, I mean the immediate reason.

981
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 2: You know, the school had a statement he was fired.

982
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 2: They want to go to a different direction. But they

983
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 2: said that he couldn't raise nil money. And I said,

984
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 2: when does it have to be that a coach has

985
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 2: to raise nil money? This is a lot eat year

986
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 2: for a new coach to raise nil money and with

987
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 2: a winning record, So I never understood why, well how

988
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 2: a coach has to raise money. And I understand that

989
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 2: you want the boosters and the alums to really come

990
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,799
Speaker 2: aboard and raise that money. And I guess if you're

991
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 2: not winning, they're not going to raise their money. So

992
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 2: they put two and two together. You're not winning, we're

993
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 2: not getting money. You're gone. That's the end of it.

994
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:27,319
Speaker 3: So yes, foolish, I mean that's I mean, look, it

995
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 3: sounds crazy that has come to this, but the changing

996
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 3: dynamics of college football has made of a college sports,

997
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 3: has made it where you have to be a major

998
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 3: fundraiser as a coach. You have to have collectives and

999
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 3: nil money or booster groups behind you to be able

1000
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 3: to get some of the players that you need to

1001
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,320
Speaker 3: be able to compete at the highest level. And maybe

1002
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 3: DePaul is making it where we can get new blood,

1003
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,239
Speaker 3: new interest. It creates a new campaign. They can hit

1004
00:47:56,280 --> 00:48:00,040
Speaker 3: the reset button on what is needed to be a winning.

1005
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,360
Speaker 2: Per You know, it's funny. I just don't think the

1006
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 2: NCAA thought long and hard with this nil situation when

1007
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 2: they put it to pass, because I don't think it's

1008
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 2: working to the extent they wanted it to work. At

1009
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 2: It's kind of like back in the day when the

1010
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,279
Speaker 2: alum would come out down to the locker room and

1011
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 2: give them a sack of money and it was illegal,

1012
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 2: but they did it to get these players. Basically what

1013
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 2: they've done now, they made it legal to give you

1014
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:24,799
Speaker 2: the sack of money. And I don't think that's what

1015
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:25,920
Speaker 2: they really wanted, do you.

1016
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 3: I don't think that was the direct intent. I don't

1017
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:34,840
Speaker 3: think they thought it would be like that. The payer

1018
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,480
Speaker 3: play model has certainly changed everything when it comes to

1019
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 3: college athletics, and I will tell you I'm an advocate

1020
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 3: for players getting a piece of the pie. For too long,

1021
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 3: there've been so many other people that have been benefiting

1022
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 3: off of the success of the players on the field,

1023
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 3: particularly the sussists on the players on the basketball and

1024
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 3: football teams, because they not only found fund the exorbitant

1025
00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 3: salaries of the coaches the ads, but they also are

1026
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 3: funding all of the other sports programs that we're seeing.

1027
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 2: Increasing enrollment too, and selling merchandise.

1028
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean so there's a lot to it.

1029
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 3: So they certainly should have had a share of the

1030
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 3: BI and a lot of this could have been done

1031
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 3: if universities in the NC double A if they weren't

1032
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 3: so greedy, and they would have just kicked back some

1033
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,240
Speaker 3: of the money to the players, you wouldn't.

1034
00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 1: You would not have dealt or have had to deal

1035
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 1: with the.

1036
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 3: Nil and the collectives and the way the money is now.

1037
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 3: But because they didn't, it's become an NLL thing. And

1038
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 3: I think here's the part to think about. You have

1039
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 3: and I saw this, so I can't take credit for it.

1040
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 3: You have college sports being funded by hard working people

1041
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 3: fans who are paying players for the universities to profit

1042
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 3: in significant ways.

1043
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense that we're asking.

1044
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 3: The lay people to pay these players when the universities

1045
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 3: in the NC Double A should have found the way

1046
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 3: to share the revenue to make sure that the players

1047
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,760
Speaker 3: were getting a piece of the pride that they helped create.

1048
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,319
Speaker 2: Exactly. I agree with you right there. All right, we

1049
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: put that to bed, And now I'm going to move

1050
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 2: along to Bucky Brooks, thewriter NFL dot Com. Every Friday,

1051
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 2: he's got to column up there, got to NFL dot com,

1052
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 2: scroll down to NFL Riters, and he always has something

1053
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 2: interesting to say in his piece, and this week was

1054
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 2: and I thought, maybe a little too early, but maybe

1055
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 2: not You got a little bit of a preview of

1056
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 2: the NFL draft, and I want to go through that

1057
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 2: a little bit with you, not all of the picks,

1058
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 2: but at least the first maybe five with whatever, and

1059
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 2: the first picks the Chicago Bears, and you know, obviously

1060
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 2: you got to get a quarterback. You don't win in

1061
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 2: the NFL without a quarterback. And I think if you're

1062
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 2: a first rounder and the first pick in the first round,

1063
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,279
Speaker 2: I don't care what you I don't care who you are,

1064
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 2: you got to get a quarterback because you got that

1065
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 2: pick because you didn't have a quarterback, because you can't

1066
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 2: win with that one. So what do the Bears do

1067
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 2: because they have Justin Fields that they still go to quarterback.

1068
00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 3: Look, I think at the end of the day, you

1069
00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,839
Speaker 3: still have to take the quarterback. You have the numb

1070
00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 3: one overall pick. Kayler Williams is the best quarterback in

1071
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 3: this class. What you do with justin fields is a

1072
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 3: separate conversation from what you have to do in the draft,

1073
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 3: and you have to treat it as such.

1074
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: This is a rare.

1075
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 3: Opportunity for you to take a quarterback at the top

1076
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 3: of the draft that is a franchise quarterback.

1077
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: So you make the move, and then you have to

1078
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:18,720
Speaker 1: make a decision.

1079
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,799
Speaker 3: Okay, once we acquire Kayler Williams, what do we want

1080
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 3: to do with Justin Fields.

1081
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:23,080
Speaker 1: Justin Fields is on.

1082
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 3: A six million dollar contract, so you have options. You

1083
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 3: can trade them. You obviously can keep them for this season.

1084
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,240
Speaker 3: Let him be the initial starter. He and Kayleb Williams

1085
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 3: can compete. When Kayler Williams is ready to replace him,

1086
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 3: you replace him, you know. I think those options give

1087
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,840
Speaker 3: you an opportunity to make the pick regardless of what

1088
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 3: the outside noise is. And then it's up to the

1089
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 3: coach's staff and the front office to figure out what

1090
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 3: do they do with Justin Fields.

1091
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 1: Does he stay and compete or does he go?

1092
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,280
Speaker 3: And a lot of times the market will determine whether

1093
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 3: you keep him or whether you usher him out. I

1094
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 3: do know this year their quarterbacks to get hurt during

1095
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 3: the regular season, the Bears will always have an opportunity

1096
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 3: to move him. They may not get what they want

1097
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 3: immediately leading up to the draft, but if they keep him,

1098
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 3: maybe doing the trade by the time you get to

1099
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 3: the trade deadline. Maybe that's when a team that is

1100
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 3: desperate because of their quarterback situation. Maybe that's when they

1101
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,359
Speaker 3: pony up big bucks to have a quarterback like that.

1102
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,879
Speaker 2: Okay, let's stick with Caleb Williams for a second. I mean,

1103
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 2: aren't there some questions on his leadership ability because after

1104
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 2: that last loss he was crying with his parents. I mean,

1105
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 2: there's got to be someone out there as a personnel

1106
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 2: person saying I'm not so certain I want him as

1107
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:39,359
Speaker 2: a leader. He may have great skills, but as far

1108
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 2: as a leadership guy in that position, you're a leader

1109
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:44,920
Speaker 2: on the team, I don't know if he could handle it.

1110
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 3: What do you think, ah, I mean, there can be

1111
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 3: some conversations about that. Doesn't mean that it's true. Doesn't

1112
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 3: mean that you can be vulnerable as a leader and

1113
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,800
Speaker 3: be successful. I think a lot of it stems from

1114
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 3: how much.

1115
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: Do you like the kid? Do you like the work

1116
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:02,760
Speaker 1: ethic to go with the talent?

1117
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 3: Does he answer those questions between the lines, How do

1118
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,959
Speaker 3: his teammates respond to him? What do his teammates say

1119
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 3: about him, whether the USC coaches and Oklahoma coaches that

1120
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 3: have been around him say about him. Preparation, the process

1121
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 3: and all those other things. You have to kick man,

1122
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,480
Speaker 3: You got to check out all of the things that

1123
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 3: are around Kayley Williams before you make a decision to

1124
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:27,280
Speaker 3: make him number one. Yeah, it may be a concern,

1125
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 3: but you have to kind of balance it out and

1126
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 3: make sure you have the whole picture before you determine

1127
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 3: whether he's the right guy for the job or not.

1128
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 2: Okay, second pick is gonna be the Washington command As

1129
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,880
Speaker 2: we mentioned early on that it's a great position for

1130
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, the coach there. They're open for a position

1131
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 2: for a coach and they're going to get a quarterback

1132
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 2: for sure, and it could be your guy, Drake May.

1133
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 2: The only problem I have with Drake May right now

1134
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 2: out of North Carolina, He's only a sophomore, not a

1135
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 2: lot of experience under his belt. Is that a problem?

1136
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a problem. I mean we've seen it be

1137
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: a problem for so long.

1138
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,239
Speaker 3: So many of the quarterbacks that are flamed out have

1139
00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 3: not played significant, significant snaps in college and the NFL

1140
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 3: game is faster. You're just dealing with different things when

1141
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,040
Speaker 3: it comes to the complex nature of the game, and

1142
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,600
Speaker 3: without that experience, it can make life miserable for the

1143
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,279
Speaker 3: quarterback and the team. Drake Made is a really good

1144
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,879
Speaker 3: prospect man. He has all the prototypical physical dimensions, talents,

1145
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 3: all of that great kid leader, all of that checks

1146
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,759
Speaker 3: off in his favor. The issue that I would have

1147
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 3: is you don't see any notable wins on his resume,

1148
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 3: and without notable wins, how are you confident that he

1149
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 3: can be a franchise guy that can elevate the franchise

1150
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,359
Speaker 3: or can he just maintain wherever the franchise is. You

1151
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,359
Speaker 3: have to see and the I mean, you can talk

1152
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 3: to him or whatever, but it's a guessing game, and

1153
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 3: whoever takes him is going to be guessing on the

1154
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 3: prototypical upside is going to allow him to elevate the

1155
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,720
Speaker 3: squad that he joins.

1156
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 2: Why would you take Drake May over Jadeen Daniels? And

1157
00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 2: obviously the Patriots have the third pick, pig it to

1158
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,279
Speaker 2: go for a quarterback as well. You got Jayden Daniels three.

1159
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you take Daniels who is a senior, a

1160
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 2: little more experienced under his belt. Why wouldn't you take

1161
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:07,040
Speaker 2: him over Drake May?

1162
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 1: Bigger, maybe more talented as a thrower.

1163
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,439
Speaker 3: That's why he's more of the prototype that we've seen

1164
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 3: have success in the league for a long time. Jade

1165
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,439
Speaker 3: Daniels for all of the things that we can rave

1166
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 3: about as a Heisman Trophy winner, He's slender man. He's

1167
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 3: slender and skinny. For those who had issue with Lamar

1168
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,280
Speaker 3: Jackson coming into the league running around and doing stuff

1169
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 3: as a slender two hundred and thirteen pounds player, you're

1170
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 3: gonna have some of those same things with Jayde Daniels.

1171
00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 3: I will also say this because people will try and

1172
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,680
Speaker 3: make the lazy comparison between Jayden and Daniels and Lamar Jackson.

1173
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 3: They're not similar as players. Lamar Jackson to me far

1174
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 3: more explosive and dynamic as a runner. Jaye Dais is

1175
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,480
Speaker 3: a good runner. Lamar Jackson was a great runner. There

1176
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:52,320
Speaker 3: is a difference.

1177
00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 1: That's it.

1178
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,879
Speaker 3: He's improved a lot going from Arizona State to Louisiana State,

1179
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 3: playing under Brian Kelly, he should have an opportunity to

1180
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:00,319
Speaker 3: be a great.

1181
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 2: Okay, last, but not least, the fourth pit will stick

1182
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 2: with this one. Arizona Cardinals. You got Marvin Harris and

1183
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,799
Speaker 2: this guy, as you mentioned, like a Larry Fitzgerald playmaker

1184
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 2: that's really going to push Arizona to make them a

1185
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 2: playoff team. No doubt in my mind, they'll be a

1186
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 2: playoff team, especially with Marvin Harrison Junior there.

1187
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: Good player man.

1188
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 3: Obviously, bloodlines are their Hall of Fame Dad, He's learned

1189
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 3: a lot along the way. Big fast, physical, great catch radius,

1190
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 3: Reminding me a lot of Larry Fitzgerald in terms of

1191
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,760
Speaker 3: just a steady demeanor, can handle the weight of expectations

1192
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 3: that will accompany being a top five pick. He should

1193
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:35,920
Speaker 3: be good to go. Don't know if it makes the

1194
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 3: Cardinals title contender. Put because the wide.

1195
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 1: Receivers are kind of like the icing on the cake.

1196
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: Got to make sure that the cake has been fully baked.

1197
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: When it comes to the offensive and defensive lines. Here

1198
00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:46,279

1221
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 2: let's talk about matchup. Let's talk about Chiefs at Ravens.

1222
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 2: I'm not so certain what this means. Maybe you. Ravens

1223
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 2: have won seven of the last eight. They lost seventeen

1224
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 2: to ten against the Steelers, but Lamar Jackson didn't play obviously.

1225
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,640
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, I think is the best player on the

1226
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 2: field today. You could take your Patrick Mahomes whatever you

1227
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 2: want to do with him. He's had a great lineup

1228
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:18,880
Speaker 2: around him. I would say Lamar Jackson hands down best

1229
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 2: player on the field in this game today.

1230
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 3: I don't know if I can say hands down. I

1231
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 3: will say he and Pat Mahomes are the two best

1232
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 3: players there. I would take Lamar Jackson based on what

1233
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:34,520
Speaker 3: he's done this year.

1234
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 1: That's it. Pat Mahomes is the best we've seen at

1235
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: the position.

1236
00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes is the next one that we will call

1237
00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 3: the goat at the position based on what he's done

1238
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 3: individually and collectively with his teammates. Two times MVP, two

1239
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 3: times Super Bowl winner, three Super Bowl appearances in his

1240
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 3: first six seasons as a starter. There are not many

1241
00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 3: that can do what Pat Mahomes is being able to do.

1242
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson is a force of nature, a freak show

1243
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,240
Speaker 3: when it comes to the talent. This is what we

1244
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 3: matched up is the new Brady Versus Manning rovaly. I

1245
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 3: know we try and do that with josh Allen, but

1246
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 3: Josh Allen doesn't have the individual accomplishments that Lamar Jackson

1247
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 3: has to make it a true rivalry. That's why this

1248
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 3: is the Rovaly that everyone wants to see and Lamar

1249
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 3: Jackson needs to win so we really can build it

1250
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 3: up as the rivalry that will be the next Rovaly

1251
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 3: that we watch for the for the next ten years.

1252
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 2: And if Lamar Jackson and both of more Ravens win,

1253
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 2: he gives, like Patrick Mahomes a bit of a shove

1254
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 2: off that stage and it gets the monkey off his back,

1255
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,200
Speaker 2: which is that he couldn't win in the big games.

1256
00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 2: But and you look at the stats. Look, I understand

1257
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 2: what you're saying. Patrick Mahomes has done a lot collectively

1258
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 2: with the team, you know, the championships, the Super Bowls.

1259
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 2: Ever may be I look at his stats this year,

1260
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 2: twenty seven touchdowns, fourteen interceptions. This has not been his

1261
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 2: greatest of years, although he passed over four thousand yards.

1262
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 2: I look at Lamar Jackson twenty four touchdowns, seven I nts.

1263
00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 2: Both quarterbacks of their percentage the Patsy percentage about to

1264
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 2: say about sixty seven percent. But I think Lamar Jackson

1265
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 2: has done more because he's more of a complete player, running,

1266
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 2: running the foot with the football, and more than that,

1267
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:15,080
Speaker 2: I think that there's more talent on Kansas City. So

1268
01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 2: I give the complements more so to Lamar Jackson has

1269
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 2: gotten it done. Certainly, his defense is great in Baltimore.

1270
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 2: But I think he's got it done. More so because

1271
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 2: his offensive unit. I don't think it's as strong as

1272
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 2: Kansas City.

1273
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,000
Speaker 3: Oh, hold on, I can't go with you on that one,

1274
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 3: all right. I think the Baltimore Ravens have a better

1275
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 3: team than the kans City Chiefs against. Yeah, the kan

1276
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 3: City Chiefs are underdogs for a reason. When you think

1277
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 3: about the offensive talent based on the kan City Chiefs

1278
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,440
Speaker 3: and the Baltimore Ravens. The Baltimore Ravens have four former

1279
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 3: first rounders on the wide receiver corps Odell Beckham, Junior

1280
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 3: Zay Flowers, Nelson Aguilar, and Rashad Bateman. Their offensive line,

1281
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 3: I would say their offensive line is better than the

1282
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 3: kan City Chiefs offensive line. Running back, I think that's

1283
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,960
Speaker 3: where you can have the conversation. Isaiah Pacheka is a

1284
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 3: better running back than anybody that the Baltimore Ravens can

1285
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 3: trot out if he plays, Yeah, I mean if he plays,

1286
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 3: and so to me, I'm looking at a Kancie the

1287
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 3: Chiefs team that is really a one man show.

1288
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 1: Pat mahomes is.

1289
01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 3: It's kind of out there, like Lebron James with those

1290
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,919
Speaker 3: old Cleveland Cavalier teams where he's having to do it all.

1291
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,840
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson's supporting cast is better, and then he has

1292
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 3: the number one defense on his side, and he has

1293
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,960
Speaker 3: an all time great as a kicker. All of the

1294
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 3: cards are in favor of the Lamar Jackson, which is

1295
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 3: why if Pat Mahomes pulls this off, then we have

1296
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:43,280
Speaker 3: no choice but to call him the goat. Even talking

1297
01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,680
Speaker 3: about Tom Brady's six super Bowl rings and all seven

1298
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 3: super Bowl rings, it's different because Pat Mahomes is doing

1299
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 3: the most with the least, and at the beginning of

1300
01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 3: his career he had all the advantages. Now he doesn't

1301
01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,800
Speaker 3: have the advantages, but he knows how to win, and

1302
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,760
Speaker 3: that know how is what pushed them over the top.

1303
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 2: I have to take somewhat of an exception with you saying, look,

1304
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 2: you mentioned these receivers on Baltimore, Odell Beckham, his best

1305
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,480
Speaker 2: days are behind them. There's no doubt about that. Agalog.

1306
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 2: I don't put him up. There's a great receiver. Andrews

1307
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 2: is the guy, and hopefully he'll play today. He was

1308
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 2: out most of it. His eight Flowers is the number

1309
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 2: one guy. Flowers is the one receiver.

1310
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,160
Speaker 1: Right, Okay, So then I'll counter to you.

1311
01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:23,680
Speaker 3: If we're having a draft where we're gonna play in

1312
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 3: your backyard and we have Odell Beckham Junior, Nelson Agelo,

1313
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 3: but we also have Sky Moore, mvs Marquez Valdez Gantling,

1314
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,960
Speaker 3: we have Justin Watkins in those guys. Are you taking

1315
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 3: those guys over anybody that we listened in Baltimore?

1316
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 2: Well, you're right, Okay, I get you, And look it

1317
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 2: all boils down to one game. Ay, Beckham may have

1318
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:46,000
Speaker 2: a hell of a game to we don't know. I mean,

1319
01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:48,720
Speaker 2: I'm just looking with the past. Performance is what he's done,

1320
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,280
Speaker 2: and certainly he's been a better player years ago before

1321
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 2: the injuries, and I just think he's not the same

1322
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 2: player he was.

1323
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:55,480
Speaker 1: He just can't be.

1324
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,240
Speaker 2: He's older, he was hurt, whatever it may be, and

1325
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 2: maybe he's not needed as badly. Big of the way

1326
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson plays, you know, just Lamar Jackson. To me,

1327
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,600
Speaker 2: it's just an exciting He creates so much. He could

1328
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,160
Speaker 2: do so much. Not that Patrick Mahomes can't. I mean

1329
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:12,680
Speaker 2: he can run with the football as well.

1330
01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:16,240
Speaker 3: No, I mean, look, look, I think we're splitting Harris.

1331
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 3: I think we're both of those guys. We're talking about that.

1332
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:23,000
Speaker 3: I think the interesting thing will be I believe that

1333
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson has taken a page from Pat Mahomes's book,

1334
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 3: and rather than the Baltimore Ravens running him like they

1335
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 3: used to run him in the past quarterback power, where

1336
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 3: he's basically playing tailback, they're running him like Pat Mahomes

1337
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:42,080
Speaker 3: elects to run scrambles, improvisational plays, spread the formation out.

1338
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 1: He takes off running.

1339
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 3: He's not subject to the same violent hits that he

1340
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 3: was when he was the primary ball career, even though

1341
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,720
Speaker 3: he's still tallying up the same amount of yardage.

1342
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 2: Well, I tell you why. It's the most telling statistic

1343
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 2: when you look at this game is that both quarterble no, actually,

1344
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 2: Lamar action is the leading rusher on Baltimore with like

1345
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 2: something like eight hundred and twenty one yards, followed by Edwards,

1346
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:09,280
Speaker 2: and then in Kansas City Mahomes is the second leading rusher.

1347
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 2: So you got quarterbacks right now that could beat you

1348
01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 2: with their legs and beat it with yourrom That's the

1349
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 2: key right there.

1350
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:16,760
Speaker 3: That is the key, and that's the way the game

1351
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 3: is evolving. The game requires and demands that you have

1352
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 3: athleticism at the quarterback position because What that does is

1353
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 3: when your quarterback is athletic, he lightens the load on

1354
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 3: the offensive play caller. The play caller doesn't have to

1355
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:30,840
Speaker 3: be absolutely.

1356
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,439
Speaker 1: Perfect when it comes to calling the game.

1357
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes and Lamar Jackson can both kind of erase

1358
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:40,120
Speaker 3: poor play calls with their athleticism. That's the way the

1359
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,360
Speaker 3: game is going. I mean, look, that's how it has

1360
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 3: to be.

1361
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,680
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. Now, Look you look at

1362
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:48,720
Speaker 2: matchups in this game. Travis Kelsey's got to come up

1363
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:50,640
Speaker 2: big today. And I think you got the old pro

1364
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 2: safety Kyle Hamilton on Travis Kelsey. That's gonna be a

1365
01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 2: pretty good matchup. But see what Kelsey could do today.

1366
01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:00,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kelsey needs to be at his best. The Kancity

1367
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,520
Speaker 3: Chiefs need all their guys to show up. They got

1368
01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:04,720
Speaker 3: to show up and show out. They will not be

1369
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 3: able to win if Travis Kelse doesn't play great. They

1370
01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 3: won't win if for Shae Rice doesn't Rashie Rice doesn't

1371
01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 3: make a handful of plays. Their best players have to

1372
01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:15,919
Speaker 3: come up and key situations for them.

1373
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 2: There you going, and who do you like? I like

1374
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,840
Speaker 2: the Ravens close game. I like the Ravens.

1375
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the Ravens. To me, I think the

1376
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 3: Ravens have more paths to victory. The only way the

1377
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 3: Kansaity Chiefs can win this game is that the Baltimore

1378
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 3: Ravens helped them by turning the ball over and just

1379
01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 3: completely falling apart under the pressure and the weight of expectations.

1380
01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:37,919
Speaker 3: If they just play, I would say a normal game

1381
01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 3: for the Baltimore Ravens. I think they win by ten

1382
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 3: plus points.

1383
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 2: Interesting, I tell you what. One of the telling stats

1384
01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:45,439
Speaker 2: as well is the fact that the Ravens is I mentioned,

1385
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 2: coming to this game winning seven of the list. They

1386
01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 2: are somewhat of a role and Kansas City has won

1387
01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:52,560
Speaker 2: five of their last six. They're starting to show some life.

1388
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 2: But they were up and down and their offense was

1389
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,080
Speaker 2: a little shaky in the mid part of the season.

1390
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean their offense was shape but till they

1391
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 3: credit Andy Reid and his team, they've been there so

1392
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 3: much they know how to figure it out. Pat Mahomes

1393
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 3: is thirteen and three in the postseason, thirteen and three,

1394
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 3: so he's the ultimate winner. He knows in these situations

1395
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 3: what he needs to do to win games, and he's

1396
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 3: certainly gonna make it. He's gonna make it a game

1397
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,320
Speaker 3: because he's good enough to do it. But we're talking

1398
01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:24,160
Speaker 3: about the number one defense in football in the Baltimore Ravens.

1399
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,200
Speaker 3: The Chiefs weaponry or firepower. I don't know if they

1400
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:32,200
Speaker 3: have enough weapons to challenge this defense like some could.

1401
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 2: I just hope it's not a blowout. We'll see about that.

1402
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:37,840
Speaker 2: He's the man, He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. And

1403
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 2: by the way, there are advantages on the line. That's next.

1404
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 2: We're a little sorry. Kevin Ryot. Here you go with

1405
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:43,400

1408
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:56,439
Speaker 4: five sets over Danil Medvedev. This is the second time

1409
01:06:56,480 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 4: that Medvedev has lost a major championship wall leading two

1410
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 4: sets to none. He's the first player to lose two

1411
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:07,600
Speaker 4: major championships while being up two sets to none, and

1412
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 4: they both happened at the Australian Open. NFL news today

Speaker 4: Lions choosing not to activate him for their matchup with

1416
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:25,600
Speaker 4: the forty nine ers, and in the AFC Championship side

Speaker 4: Lakers win at Steph Curry, though an outstanding performance in

1425
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:57,480

1429

1431
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:12,880

1432

Speaker 2: BoNT and Barrow betting coming up in about six seven

1444
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 2: minutes from now. Lions at forty nine ers, Bucky Brooks,

1445
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 2: other Lions, the new America's team.

1446
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:56,920
Speaker 1: I think they are Yeah, I think so.

1447
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:01,439
Speaker 3: I think everyone loves an underdog story and they certainly

1448
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 3: are the underdogs. They've been perennier losers for so long.

1449
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:10,000
Speaker 3: But this team resonates with the football public because there

1450
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 3: were underdogs. But Dan Campbell has kind of spoke this

1451
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 3: team into existence. He talked about the toughness, he talked

1452
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:18,120
Speaker 3: about how they would fight, the grittiness and all those

1453
01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:19,439
Speaker 3: things America loves that.

1454
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:21,479
Speaker 1: I think we love a comeback story.

1455
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:26,160
Speaker 3: Jared Goff being dismissed by the La Rams after leading

1456
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 3: them to a Super Bowl, and even though it worked

1457
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:29,280
Speaker 3: out for the Rams where they won a Super Bowl

1458
01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 3: with Matthew Stafford, they basically send him to die in

1459
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,240
Speaker 3: the football cemetery of Detroit.

1460
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 1: He's not only bounced back.

1461
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,920
Speaker 3: Individually, but he's led his team on the verge of

1462
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 3: doing something that is really really special. He's done it

1463
01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,479
Speaker 3: displaying more toughness and grit than anybody thought that he

1464
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:48,160
Speaker 3: would possess.

1465
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 1: People love those stories.

1466
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 3: And so this is a chance for them to do it,

1467
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:55,880
Speaker 3: and they're going to do it against a team that

1468
01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:58,040
Speaker 3: is regarded as one of the bullies on the block

1469
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,600
Speaker 3: along with the Baltimore Ravens. Lions can go toe to

1470
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:03,960
Speaker 3: toe with the San Francisco forty nine ers and knock

1471
01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:04,519
Speaker 3: them off.

1472
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:05,799
Speaker 1: Man, you just talked.

1473
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:08,000
Speaker 3: About the Super Bowl having one of the best stories

1474
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 3: that we've ever had in terms of the Lions getting

1475
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 3: off the matt and making their way into being a

1476
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 3: Super de Bowl participant.

1477
01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:18,640
Speaker 2: Anybody who watched Hard Knocks on HBO prior to the

1478
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 2: season watched the Detroit Lions, you had to fall in

1479
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,360
Speaker 2: love with not only the team but the coach, Dan Campbell,

1480
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,519
Speaker 2: and I love it the fact that Dan Campbell right

1481
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,000
Speaker 2: now is somewhat getting the last left because when he

1482
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:30,439
Speaker 2: was introduced as the head coach of the Detroit Lions,

1483
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,800
Speaker 2: they laughed at him at that news conference, and now

1484
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:36,040
Speaker 2: he's got the last left. He's grumpy, he's irritabile of times,

1485
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,320
Speaker 2: I guess, but he's got passion. He loves the game

1486
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,120
Speaker 2: of football, and I got to believe every one of

1487
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,320
Speaker 2: those players on that Lions team loves playing for that guy.

1488
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:45,880
Speaker 2: He's been there, done that. As you mentioned early on,

1489
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:48,360
Speaker 2: he com into immediate respect. Why he played the game,

1490
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 2: he suit it up. But he's got that emotion to passion.

1491
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,639
Speaker 2: He loves the game, he loves to coach, and they

1492
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:55,439
Speaker 2: love him.

1493
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:57,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they do love him.

1494
01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:01,799
Speaker 3: He's done a really good job of being a great leader,

1495
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:06,000
Speaker 3: you know, being able to be very transparent what he demands.

1496
01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:09,280
Speaker 3: He hasn't relented off of those things. So I can

1497
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 3: appreciate the job that he has done and rebuilding this team.

1498
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 3: But it's not only him, it's what he's assembled in

1499
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:17,840
Speaker 3: the front office. Brad Holmes having conviction to make the

1500
01:11:17,920 --> 01:11:21,679
Speaker 3: move to get Jered Goff, Brad Holmes drafting three great

1501
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:25,639
Speaker 3: classes back to back to back The list of former

1502
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:29,080
Speaker 3: players that are having some kind of inpult and impact

1503
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:33,280
Speaker 3: on the organization can also not be underscored. This is

1504
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 3: a team and an organization that has done it and

1505
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:36,479
Speaker 3: attempted to do it.

1506
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:39,080
Speaker 1: The right way. They're now being rewarded for their patients

1507
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 1: and their persistence in terms of getting this done.

1508
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,200
Speaker 2: There you go forty nine ers of one, eight of

1509
01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,080
Speaker 2: the last ten lines of five and one in their

1510
01:11:45,120 --> 01:11:47,599
Speaker 2: last six. And you mentioned this early on today, let's

1511
01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 2: expand a little bit. Deebo Samuel is going to play today.

1512
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:52,960
Speaker 2: How important is Deepo Samuel on the offensive side of

1513
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 2: the ball for the forty nine ers?

1514
01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:56,599
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1515
01:11:56,680 --> 01:12:01,479
Speaker 3: I mean, look, Deebo Samuel being available, Christian McCaffrey being available.

1516
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:03,559
Speaker 3: They need both of their stars to step up and

1517
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,240
Speaker 3: play well. We always talk about George Kittle and Brandon

1518
01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,840
Speaker 3: Ayyuk and those guys, but the straw that stirs to

1519
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 3: drink for the Niners or CMC and D ball and

1520
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,640
Speaker 3: if both are available, it makes his team damn dangerous.

1521
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,960
Speaker 3: People will talk about brock Purdy and they'll put the

1522
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 3: emphasis on brock purity in the passing game. It's not

1523
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:26,080
Speaker 3: about brock Purdy's play and potential. It's about Rock Purdy's

1524
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:29,960
Speaker 3: ability to distribute a ball to the best players on

1525
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 3: the Niners DBO CMC, and then everybody feeds up under debt.

1526
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,360
Speaker 3: If he has those guys available and if he is

1527
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,760
Speaker 3: able to kind of get in his bag and just

1528
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:42,720
Speaker 3: be a distributor, the Niners can roll through anybody.

1529
01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:44,720
Speaker 1: And so it's really as simple as that. If you're

1530
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 1: the Niners.

1531
01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 2: Okay, now the matchup right now. X factor is the

1532
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,639
Speaker 2: advantage the Detroit Lions in my heart and my heart

1533
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:52,760
Speaker 2: of hearts, because I think I'm rooting for them more

1534
01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 2: so than my heart than my mind. But I think

1535
01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 2: they have the advantage on both sides of the line.

1536
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 2: Offensive line, defensive line. I think Jamar Gibbs, I mean,

1537
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 2: this guy has really impressed everybody that's running back. He's

1538
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:09,000
Speaker 2: going to go against Drake Greenlaw, the linebacker on the

1539
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:11,639
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers. I think the line factor, at least

1540
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:14,200
Speaker 2: the offensive line of Detroit is going to have that

1541
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:17,280
Speaker 2: Detroit running game going full steam ahead. And I think

1542
01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:18,760
Speaker 2: the Lions are going to win this game. And I'm

1543
01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:20,640
Speaker 2: not gonna win by a lot. I think they'll win

1544
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:22,679
Speaker 2: by listing a touchdown. But I think the Detroit Lions

1545
01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 2: win this game something like twenty four to twenty one,

1546
01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 2: four twenty something like that.

1547
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 3: Man, you really all in on an underdog story. To me,

1548
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:34,639
Speaker 3: the Niners are the better team on.

1549
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:36,720
Speaker 2: The line, too, But what on both sides. I know

1550
01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:38,519
Speaker 2: that they may have the better players, it might be

1551
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,680
Speaker 2: the better team in every other position, but I think

1552
01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 2: the Lions may have the advantage under line.

1553
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 1: I think they have the advantages on the offensive line.

1554
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:48,799
Speaker 1: At the defensive line.

1555
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:52,360
Speaker 3: The defensive line for the forty nine ers is absolutely outstanding,

1556
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,160
Speaker 3: so it'd be a matter of the best who's able

1557
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 3: to control it.

1558
01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:58,120
Speaker 1: Skill guys.

1559
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 3: I still say that in at the skills the Niners

1560
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:05,320
Speaker 3: have a slight edge over that. And then it comes

1561
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 3: down to quarterback play. I love Jerry Goff, but Brock

1562
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:10,559
Speaker 3: Predy orchestra in this offense, he's been terrific and so

1563
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,120
Speaker 3: to me, it's a tight game. But I'm willing to

1564
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:15,800
Speaker 3: go with the Niners because they're just a little bit

1565
01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:16,559
Speaker 3: better on defense.

1566
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:19,639
Speaker 2: Well, you're going with the Niners, you're going with Truck.

1567
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 2: I look, as I say, I'm probably thinking more so

1568
01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:26,920
Speaker 2: with my head than in my heart, But I don't know.

1569
01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 2: I just I want the Lions to win, but I

1570
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:32,479
Speaker 2: honestly do think they have an outstanding chance to win.

1571
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:35,600
Speaker 2: The game is in San Francisco, so that's gonna be

1572
01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 2: tough as well. Maybe these games should be played on.

1573
01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:39,160
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1574
01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 2: I hate to use the term neutral fields, but you

1575
01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:41,879
Speaker 2: know you want.

1576
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 4: The on and I know.

1577
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:45,600
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I even brought that up, because you do

1578
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:48,080
Speaker 2: want the fans that they support you all year long.

1579
01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 2: How can you take the playoff games away from them? See,

1580
01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,200
Speaker 2: you got to do that, you really do. But it's

1581
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:55,519
Speaker 2: a tremendous advantage. I think playing at home, but I

1582
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,680
Speaker 2: still like Detroit. I like Detroit to win this game.

1583
01:14:57,800 --> 01:14:59,679
Speaker 1: A huge advantage, huge advantage.

1584

01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 8: All right, Well, let's start with a score update from

1602
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:57,120
Speaker 7: Wait, don't get into that habit with the per usual.

1603
01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,240
Speaker 2: You're killing me. Wos come up?

1604
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you gave me.

1605
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:03,960
Speaker 8: The rundown last week before I started, so I kind

1606
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,800
Speaker 8: of know. Giving Andy the business is a staple of

1607
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:10,120
Speaker 8: this segment. But but Bucky for Andy one, and that's

1608
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:11,479
Speaker 8: full honesty.

1609
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:11,920
Speaker 1: There's no.

1610
01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:15,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, okay, no, we just said before we

1611
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:17,679
Speaker 2: continue here we roll on. But I got to answer

1612
01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:19,439
Speaker 2: a question. What is you a trick? How do you

1613
01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 2: get this? And how come I keep on losing? Help

1614
01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:23,960
Speaker 2: me out a little bit. I want to make competitive here.

1615
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:26,720
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's just a sense, man. I

1616
01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:28,720
Speaker 3: wish that I could prep or whatever. It's just a

1617
01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:30,639
Speaker 3: sense that I get, you know, going with the gut instincts.

1618
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 3: I'm not an analytics person, so I just go with

1619
01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:33,320
Speaker 3: my guts.

1620
01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,320
Speaker 2: Is it because you played the game and I didn't

1621
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:35,800
Speaker 2: tell me.

1622
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:37,160
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I won't say that.

1623
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 3: I want to say that because these games we're talking about,

1624
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,720
Speaker 3: I mean, it's video games, it's ping pong, is all

1625
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:42,080
Speaker 3: kinds of.

1626
01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:44,200
Speaker 1: Crazy stuff with whack them mole. I mean I think

1627
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:45,120
Speaker 1: we bet on everything.

1628
01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:48,200
Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, I'll give with a shot. Here we

1629
01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:48,719
Speaker 2: go again.

1630
01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:51,120
Speaker 8: I mean, speaking of which, we'll start off with some

1631
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,880
Speaker 8: good old e sports. We got counter Strike two. It's

1632
01:16:53,880 --> 01:16:57,439
Speaker 8: a call of duty like video game, I believe. Uh So,

1633
01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:00,360
Speaker 8: we got Team G two there minus one fit teen

1634
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 8: facing off against Team Liquid, who's plus one fifteen. Bucky

1635
01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:04,960
Speaker 8: you first? Who you got?

1636
01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 3: Oh, let's go with G two. Let's go to G two.

1637
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:09,760
Speaker 3: Let's go to favorites right out the gate, let's make it.

1638
01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 2: I got Team Liquid. I don't want to sink. I

1639
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 2: don't want to drown, really drowning in this game every week?

1640
01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:20,320
Speaker 8: All right? Next, we got an online darts league. I

1641
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:22,000
Speaker 8: got two matchups in this one for you guys. We

1642
01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:29,040
Speaker 8: got Chris Gilliland and Harookie Muramatsu. Hope, I said that right. Oh,

1643
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:32,439
Speaker 8: Gilliland is minus one thirty five and mura Matsu is

1644
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:33,280
Speaker 8: plus one oh five.

1645
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:34,920
Speaker 2: So we picked one.

1646
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:40,440
Speaker 7: Pick one Andy Harookie Harookie, my guy Horookie.

1647
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:45,120
Speaker 1: M I mean, I guess I'm gonna go with the

1648
01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 1: other guy.

1649
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 3: Gilt is Gillilanda underdog.

1650
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:54,920
Speaker 8: Uh No, he's actually the favorite in this case.

1651
01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:56,360
Speaker 1: Okay, cool, I like that.

1652
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:00,000
Speaker 2: I got buckets, sister. Wherever I pick, he picks the opposie.

1653
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get Ithe's the only way. Like, I'm not

1654
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 1: trying to.

1655
01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:04,720
Speaker 2: Do three months to figure it. A long time to.

1656
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:11,160
Speaker 8: Puss, all right, all right, great, Next we got mccrue Suzuki.

1657
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 8: This is also online darts. He is plus two forty

1658
01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:22,400
Speaker 8: five versus Gilbert Vandermijden. Who's up, Bucky.

1659
01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 1: Let's start with Zuki. Yeah, let's going to Zukie right,

1660
01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:25,880
Speaker 1: all right.

1661
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:30,439
Speaker 2: I'm going to Vanderwizen. You know why because he sounds

1662
01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:33,400
Speaker 2: like he's got some money, comes from some wealth, and

1663
01:18:33,439 --> 01:18:35,000
Speaker 2: I think it, well, they probably give him a head

1664
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,879
Speaker 2: of a dart set as a kid. See, he practiced

1665
01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 2: a lot. So Van der Heysen whatever his name is,

1666
01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 2: the vanda Heysen guy, he's my guy.

1667
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 4: All right.

1668
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:46,240
Speaker 8: And a bottom barrel bets staple. Here we got more snooker.

1669
01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:50,839
Speaker 8: Uh so Alistair Carter at minus three twenty five versus

1670
01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:58,200
Speaker 8: Michael White at plus two thirty five. Who's up, Bucky,

1671
01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,639
Speaker 8: give me the names again. We got Alice mister Carter

1672
01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:04,599
Speaker 8: minus three twenty five versus Michael White plus two thirty five.

1673
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 1: Give me a favorite. Who's plus two two.

1674
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:12,080
Speaker 8: Five plus two thirty five? The favorite is Alistair Carter.

1675
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 1: Oh, let's go Alistair Carter. Yeah, right, minus.

1676
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 2: Okay, And that's where Bucky is wrong on this one.

1677
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:18,479
Speaker 2: That goes so you have to look at bloodlines, and

1678
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 2: this guy White must be related to Danny White, who

1679
01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:21,280
Speaker 2: played in the NFL.

1680
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 1: Must be it must be sure.

1681
01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:26,000
Speaker 3: Danny White came up short all the time with the

1682
01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:27,960
Speaker 3: three title games in a rowin didn't get.

1683
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:29,559
Speaker 2: But but he has been there, done that. He played

1684
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,920
Speaker 2: the game. I mean, he had got the jeans, So

1685
01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:34,040
Speaker 2: it must be some sort of relation with so much.

1686
01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 2: There's a lot of Whites that played professional sports. Uh

1687
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 2: Roy White played for the Yankees. A lot of these

1688
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:42,400
Speaker 2: guys played the game. He played the game. I'm going

1689
01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:44,760
Speaker 2: with Danny White, all right, whatever his name was.

1690
01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:47,160
Speaker 8: The last one. We actually have a chess match up here.

1691
01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:49,839
Speaker 8: The Tatas Steel Masters is the name of the turn.

1692
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:51,679
Speaker 2: You can't say that on the radio, Tata, you can't

1693
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:53,120
Speaker 2: excuse me.

1694
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 8: Next, So it's a niche Geary minus one seventy five

1695
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:03,320
Speaker 8: versus Max war who's actually plus twelve hundred. Those were

1696
01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 8: the two easiest names to pronounce out of.

1697
01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 2: The whole tournam Well, really you think? So who's up?

1701
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:18,600
Speaker 8: You just combined two names. We got a niche and

1702
01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:20,240
Speaker 8: then we got Max warmer Dom.

1703
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:22,960
Speaker 2: Well, then I gotta win. Then I'll get Goury. I'm

01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:28,599
Speaker 4: Chicago Bears and our technical producer Mark is standing at

1745
01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:31,400

1746
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:37,400

1747
01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:41,160

1748
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:42,880
Speaker 4: know what to make of that, because once upon a

1749
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:46,800
Speaker 4: time they did that for Andy Dalton too, and that

1750
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:47,799
Speaker 4: didn't last very.

1751
01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:51,840
Speaker 1: Low, right, I forget about the Andy Dalton love.

1752
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:54,479
Speaker 4: So there we go. We got QB one. But later

1753
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 4: on today two teams are gonna have the same look

1754
01:22:56,520 --> 01:22:59,719
Speaker 4: that Medvedev had just now. I was telling the fellas

1755
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,599
Speaker 4: before I came in here. You know that thousand yards

1756
01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:06,400
Speaker 4: stared that you saw greatness ahead of you, all the riches,

1757
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:11,680
Speaker 4: all the gold, and all the you know, laudatory comments

1758
01:23:11,720 --> 01:23:14,720
Speaker 4: and praise that flowed down when you win something of

1759
01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:19,120
Speaker 4: such substance as an Australian open instead, Sinnair comes back.

1760
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:21,519
Speaker 4: As you heard Kevin Wire tell you from two sets

1761
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 4: down to stun him. Guys, it looked like he was

1762
01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:27,679
Speaker 4: in a Hollywood movie and it was green screen, sipping

1763
01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:30,559
Speaker 4: on his water, staring straight ahead. And then you had

1764
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:33,400
Speaker 4: the let's go to the broadcast crew, and there's Foller,

1765
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:36,080
Speaker 4: there's McEnroe, and I'm sorry to the gentleman in the middle.

1766
01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:38,160
Speaker 4: I'm not quite sure who that was. They looked like

1767
01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:40,760
Speaker 4: they were on an old laptop and one of those

1768
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 4: mini Logitech things. Hey, can three of you guys crammed

1769
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 4: together as close as possible so we can get you

1770
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,320
Speaker 4: on the screen together, so you know, one of those

1771
01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 4: high high tech kind of things as we go, But

1772
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,240
Speaker 4: two teams are gonna have those stairs later on. Today

1773
01:23:55,360 --> 01:24:01,920
Speaker 4: Andy is firmly behind America's team. Is new chant for

1774
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:07,559
Speaker 4: the Detroit Lions, Yes, I noted, And look, we'll approach

1775
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 4: this with caution. I went and saw the International Space

1776
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 4: Station movie that came out a little bleaker street thing,

1777
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:18,679
Speaker 4: so basically International Space Station, right collaborative of the United

1778
01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:25,479
Speaker 4: States and the Soviet Union, and then chaos ensues. Well,

1779
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,599
Speaker 4: you know, you go back to America's team and well,

1780
01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:33,680
Speaker 4: the last winners were the Detroit Red Wings and all

1781
01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:38,519
Speaker 4: of those guys uneasy alliance because you had a lot

1782
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,080
Speaker 4: of Russian players there. I mean, we've seen the documentaries.

1783
01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:43,400
Speaker 4: We have it all together, the pipeline. But now you've

1784
01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:45,960
Speaker 4: got Dan Campbell, who's a man that, let's face it,

1785
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:49,040
Speaker 4: from biten kneecaps to this moment. That is a long,

1786
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:53,439
Speaker 4: arduous journey from laughing stock and what the hell is

1787
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:56,880
Speaker 4: going on to building a staff, building a culture and

1788
01:24:56,920 --> 01:25:00,280
Speaker 4: getting us here to the NFC title game. Look, pick

1789
01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:02,679
Speaker 4: is already on record because I can't have Jason Smith

1790
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:05,800
Speaker 4: have nice things and since he picked the Lions before

1791
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,280
Speaker 4: the season, I've heard about it. He texts me in

1792
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:10,920
Speaker 4: the middle of the night. Gentlemen, I can't have this happen.

1793
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:15,840
Speaker 4: This aggression will not stand. So I'm on record right

1794
01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:18,680
Speaker 4: now that the forty nine ers have to win this

1795
01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:19,920
Speaker 4: if only to save my soul.

1796
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:22,720
Speaker 2: You have taken it personally, you know, thinking like on

1797
01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:23,520
Speaker 2: the field.

1798
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,080
Speaker 4: Well, I do think Zach just goes the better team.

1799
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 2: Well, we'll see, we'll see. You mentioned Dan camb he

1800
01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:30,880
Speaker 2: could have stopp when he say He's a man, He's

1801
01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:33,120
Speaker 2: a man's man. He's the kind of guy you want

1802
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:35,960
Speaker 2: to play for, right, right bucket, all the coaches you've had,

1803
01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,440
Speaker 2: you'd love to play for a guy like Dan Campbell.

1804
01:25:38,960 --> 01:25:39,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would.

1805
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:43,120
Speaker 3: And I think what's important And I don't know, Like, look,

1806
01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 3: this is different for me coming from being a player

1807
01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:50,000
Speaker 3: to now really adopt and fandom. But Dan Campbell said

1808
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:52,200
Speaker 3: something a week or a few weeks ago where he

1809
01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:56,240
Speaker 3: talked about this team had to represent the city. It

1810
01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 3: had to be built in an image that the city

1811
01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:02,360
Speaker 3: correct and nods it and appreciate it. So I want

1812
01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:06,400
Speaker 3: to ask Harmon and you, like Mike, how do you

1813
01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 3: feel about that? So, like, when you think about your

1814
01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:11,200
Speaker 3: beloved Bears, do you feel like the Bears have to

1815
01:26:11,280 --> 01:26:14,280
Speaker 3: play and kind of feel like the city of Chicago

1816
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:16,840
Speaker 3: or would you be okay with them, let's just say,

1817
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,640
Speaker 3: being a softer, more finesse type team.

1818
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:23,800
Speaker 4: If they win. I don't get the damn. At this point,

1819
01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 4: I'm still trained, not eighty five. On Friday, I had

1820
01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:28,400
Speaker 4: to bring up the fact that it was the anniversary

1821
01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:30,519
Speaker 4: of the Bears winning the Super Bowl. You know, when

1822
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 4: I was a kid, long long ago, before the hair

1823
01:26:33,400 --> 01:26:36,840
Speaker 4: started to go. The belly started to grow. You know, cortisol,

1824
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 4: you know cortisol or whatever the hell that had is

1825
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:41,120
Speaker 4: in the middle of the night, got belly fat. You

1826
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:44,000
Speaker 4: can't fight well, it's insulin resistance. It's all the stuff. No,

1827
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:46,519
Speaker 4: all of that stuff was gone. It was a young, bright,

1828
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:48,880
Speaker 4: fresh faced Mikey Harmon and the Bears were going to

1829
01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:52,160
Speaker 4: rule the world. Instead, it's misery year after year. So

1830
01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:54,719
Speaker 4: I don't care. They can wing it all over the place,

1831
01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:59,000
Speaker 4: they can run the wing formation, they can bring back,

1832
01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 4: you know, just the wildcat. Whatever's gonna work. I don't care.

1833
01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:05,439
Speaker 4: But because that's the conflicting thing here, Bucky and Andy,

1834
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:07,840
Speaker 4: I as I throw it to you, is that I

1835
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:11,160
Speaker 4: love everything about what Dan Gamble.

1836
01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:11,599
Speaker 2: Has been I do too.

1837
01:27:12,040 --> 01:27:14,960
Speaker 4: I love it all because you know me, I love smouth,

1838
01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:18,800
Speaker 4: smash mouth football. I love that you have Gibbs and look,

1839
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:21,160
Speaker 4: I love David Montgomery. He really looked good in a

1840
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:24,080
Speaker 4: Bear's uniform these last couple of years. But when it

1841
01:27:24,120 --> 01:27:26,920
Speaker 4: gets in close and you need the tough yard, there's

1842
01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:29,599
Speaker 4: your guy. Jared Goff I always thought got a bad

1843
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 4: rap leaving here from the Rams. Remember he started with

1844
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 4: Jeff Fisher, as his coach people mister seven and nine himself,

1845
01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,680
Speaker 4: by the way, we helped get him fired. On an

1846
01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:41,640
Speaker 4: old interview with Eric Dickerson, I'll send you guys the

1847
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,800
Speaker 4: unedited audio. It's one of the greatest fire interviews of

1848
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:47,320
Speaker 4: all time. But you know, so I'm still waiting on

1849
01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:50,120
Speaker 4: my ring from the Rams. By the way, but the

1850
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,480
Speaker 4: Lions are everything I love about the game of football,

1851
01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 4: So it's hard to root against him, except that I

1852
01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:57,840
Speaker 4: can't have Smith have nice things.

1853
01:27:57,960 --> 01:27:59,320
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. You know, you bring up

1854
01:27:59,360 --> 01:28:02,360
Speaker 2: an interesting point the book about you know, echoing or

1855
01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:05,840
Speaker 2: mirroring the city you play in. As far as Chicago's concern,

1856
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,840
Speaker 2: I don't know how you would describe Chicago kind of

1857
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:11,960
Speaker 2: like New York because it's a melting part of so

1858
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:15,080
Speaker 2: many different people. But Detroit, there's been a picture drawn

1859
01:28:15,360 --> 01:28:18,120
Speaker 2: in our mindset that's a hard working, blue collar town.

1860
01:28:18,479 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 2: General Motors. Is there people working on the plant. Matter

1861
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 2: of fact, there's a story on the news the other

1862
01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:25,760
Speaker 2: day that they're closing the shift on the plant and

1863
01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:28,640
Speaker 2: a GM plan today so the workers could watch that

1864
01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:29,200
Speaker 2: Lions case.

1865
01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:32,320
Speaker 4: Can I say I was vilified once again being anti

1866
01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:34,920
Speaker 4: people because I'm like, what are you going to do

1867
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:38,440
Speaker 4: to make good for those other two shifts? Riddle me that, Batman.

1868
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:41,200
Speaker 2: There's sell less cars. That's all.

1869
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,040
Speaker 4: Well, I'm just saying, right, if you're gonna make time

1870
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 4: out and give them the opportunity to go sit and

1871
01:28:46,520 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 4: indulge and be with their family.

1872
01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:49,960
Speaker 2: What are the other two shifts getting? No'll get You're

1873
01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:52,639
Speaker 2: exactly right. But here's the difference between Detroit and Chicago.

1874
01:28:52,960 --> 01:28:55,200
Speaker 2: If the Lions win today, you know what they'll do.

1875
01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:57,840
Speaker 2: They'll close the schools tomorrow. In Detroit. They wouldn't do

1876
01:28:57,880 --> 01:28:59,679
Speaker 2: that in Chicago. That's the difference.

1877
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:01,880
Speaker 4: Is the school Well, actually no, it's a it's a

1878
01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:04,840
Speaker 4: softer Chicago than I once knew. Back in the day.

1879
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:06,880
Speaker 4: It was all right, we'll kick the start of school

1880
01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:09,320
Speaker 4: back an hour, but you still have to come in.

1881
01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:12,360
Speaker 4: Now they'll actually shut it down for a day or two.

1882
01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah.

1883
01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:19,120
Speaker 3: Now, Look, I think because we talk about the Bears,

1884
01:29:19,120 --> 01:29:21,400
Speaker 3: and we talk about the Bears running up, I think

1885
01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:24,640
Speaker 3: what Detroit has shown you the perfect way of balancing

1886
01:29:24,760 --> 01:29:27,920
Speaker 3: force and finesse. Right, So, Andy, we talked, I mean,

1887
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:29,599
Speaker 3: we talk about finishing games.

1888
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:31,040
Speaker 1: You gotta be able to run the football. You got

1889
01:29:31,160 --> 01:29:31,800
Speaker 1: to grind it out.

1890
01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,479
Speaker 3: You got to exhibit the toughness and physicality that you need.

1891
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:35,679
Speaker 1: But then the finesse.

1892
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:37,639
Speaker 3: When you look at Jared Goff and you watch him

1893
01:29:38,080 --> 01:29:41,120
Speaker 3: just shred the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with dime after dime

1894
01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:43,200
Speaker 3: over the middle of the field, it's kind of like

1895
01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:46,400
Speaker 3: the perfect the perfect mix, right, It's the perfect combination.

1896
01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:50,519
Speaker 3: It's the Chicago mix of popcorn with the cheese and

1897
01:29:50,560 --> 01:29:51,759
Speaker 3: the camera corn.

1898
01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:54,400
Speaker 4: You want me to get me?

1899
01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:57,200
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what it is. I mean, if we're

1900
01:29:57,200 --> 01:29:59,880
Speaker 3: gonna throw some some pecans in there, go with.

1901
01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:01,280
Speaker 4: That fucky begging.

1902
01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:08,120
Speaker 2: Right now, that'll get what we Chicago pizza the Detroit pizza.

1903
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,240
Speaker 2: I'm kind of leaning towards the Detroit pizza.

1904
01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:10,360
Speaker 1: Now.

1905
01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 4: See now you're just getting insane. You're leaning into this

1906
01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:14,200
Speaker 4: hype way too much.

1907
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,400
Speaker 3: The only thing I know about Detroit piece is Little Caesar, So,

1908
01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:19,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even know if that's I don't

1909
01:30:19,080 --> 01:30:21,760
Speaker 3: even know if this's Detroit pizza. But I can't make

1910
01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:23,800
Speaker 3: that comparison because there would be two poles that I

1911
01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:26,679
Speaker 3: would compare. It would be New York pizza versus Chicago pizza.

1912
01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:29,000
Speaker 3: I don't think I could throw Detroit up in there.

1913
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, the the criticism for Chicago pizza from those that

1914
01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:40,000
Speaker 4: have dared to go down that rod. Louisa Lumel noddies, Hey,

1915
01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:41,800
Speaker 4: you know what, I'll ship you some in. You'll have

1916
01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:43,519
Speaker 4: one some by the middle of the weekend.

1917
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:45,800
Speaker 2: Mike North used to do it to me all the time.

1918
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,240
Speaker 4: That's it, you know, we we Indoctrinatia and keep you there.

1919
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:51,880
Speaker 4: But the whole thing was, ah, there's too much dough whatever.

1920
01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:54,519
Speaker 4: It's like, well, that's what Detroit pizza is. It's a

1921
01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:58,720
Speaker 4: thick yeah, big crust thing as well, so you know,

1922
01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:02,040
Speaker 4: same kind of idea. But yeah, it's it's the great

1923
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:06,760
Speaker 4: conflict of you know, harmon dealing with the the emotions

1924
01:31:06,760 --> 01:31:08,679
Speaker 4: of dealing with the guy five nights a week who's

1925
01:31:08,720 --> 01:31:10,920
Speaker 4: just told him repeatedly you know I picked the Lions

1926
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:14,639
Speaker 4: for the Super Bowl and appreciating everything there. I gotta

1927
01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:16,120
Speaker 4: ask you this, though, Bucky, because.

1928
01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:17,680
Speaker 2: The time off once I know you got you got

1929
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:20,160
Speaker 2: me thinking for a second, because it may be worth

1930
01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:22,240
Speaker 2: it for the pointing out us to win today. Because

1931
01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:27,000
Speaker 2: to turn the radio one and then jays Justin Smith, Uh,

1932
01:31:27,280 --> 01:31:30,280
Speaker 2: he'll go crazy, Jason Smith. I'd see him a Mischi.

1933
01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:33,720
Speaker 4: Justin's my producer. So you know they can flate. They're like, uh,

1934
01:31:33,760 --> 01:31:35,360
Speaker 4: you know, they're like Tron.

1935
01:31:35,520 --> 01:31:37,960
Speaker 2: His head won't fit the swollen dome. He'll be calling

1936
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:38,719
Speaker 2: himself to swollen.

1937
01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:40,760
Speaker 4: He's got a big head, right, I mean, I think

1938
01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:43,800
Speaker 4: his head's bigger than mine these days. You know, I've

1939
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:45,360
Speaker 4: got leaner and meaner through the years.

1940
01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:47,679
Speaker 2: Here Detroit wins and they win the Super Bowl. Oh

1941
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:49,120
Speaker 2: my goodness, Oh boy.

1942
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:52,680
Speaker 4: Tell you what. Uh yeah, chaos ensues. But you know,

1943
01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:56,080
Speaker 4: as we look at last week's game, not not to

1944
01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:59,479
Speaker 4: go live in the past too much, Bucky and I

1945
01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:03,320
Speaker 4: know they had some attrition. They had the opportunity Dean

1946
01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:06,559
Speaker 4: with the drop on the would be interception early that

1947
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:10,400
Speaker 4: allows them to kick the field goal. But even with

1948
01:32:10,479 --> 01:32:13,120
Speaker 4: the injuries at all, the fact that it looks so

1949
01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:16,000
Speaker 4: easy over the middle, and that Golf never really had

1950
01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 4: to make a throw to the sidelines, that as a

1951
01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,120
Speaker 4: as a guy who loves the game, and I don't

1952
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:23,840
Speaker 4: pretend to be an expert and at all, but you know,

1953
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:26,960
Speaker 4: the three of us have watched a ton of football, bucket. Obviously,

1954
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:28,840
Speaker 4: you've lived it, you've played it, you've coached it, and

1955
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:31,800
Speaker 4: analyzed it at the highest of levels like that was

1956
01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:35,920
Speaker 4: just frustrating as hell. Whoever, regardless of who you're picking

1957
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:38,439
Speaker 4: to win, win the game, you're just watching. It's like,

1958
01:32:38,560 --> 01:32:40,880
Speaker 4: it really shouldn't be that easy to keep finding a

1959
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:42,920
Speaker 4: guy over the middle. At some point he's got to

1960
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:44,840
Speaker 4: go outside the numbers. And he never had to go

1961
01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:45,719
Speaker 4: outside the numbers.

1962
01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:47,519
Speaker 1: No, he didn't.

1963
01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:51,040
Speaker 3: And I think the most impressive part of that is

1964
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:55,000
Speaker 3: everyone remembers yesteryear where we talked about how treacherous it

1965
01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,760
Speaker 3: was for receivers to venture over the mill. Sure, and

1966
01:32:57,800 --> 01:33:00,360
Speaker 3: I know the league has legislated some of the big

1967
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:03,799
Speaker 3: hits in those things out, but when you work inside

1968
01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:07,960
Speaker 3: the hashes, the courage that you must have as a

1969
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:11,759
Speaker 3: pass catcher, it still exists. And to watch Jerriet Goff

1970
01:33:12,120 --> 01:33:17,160
Speaker 3: just absolutely obliterate the Buccaneers over and over and over.

1971
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,040
Speaker 1: Between the hashes, to me was impressive.

1972
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:21,759
Speaker 3: And to know that he did it the week before

1973
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:24,439
Speaker 3: against the La Rams over and over and over again.

1974
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:28,559
Speaker 3: This team, this quarterback, like the way they're just living

1975
01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:31,000
Speaker 3: in the danger zone, like right in the middle of

1976
01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:31,479
Speaker 3: the field.

1977
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:32,800
Speaker 1: To me, that's what you have to do.

1978
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,360
Speaker 3: And then when they cap it off by running the

1979
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:37,960
Speaker 3: football when everyone in the stadium knows they need to

1980
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:40,160
Speaker 3: run it, and they just kind of dominate you in

1981
01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:42,800
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter on the ground. This team is built

1982
01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:44,800
Speaker 3: the right way, and so I wouldn't be surprised to

1983
01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:46,519
Speaker 3: see them go to San Francisco and do it, even

1984
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:48,720
Speaker 3: though I'm saying the San Francisco forty nine ers are

1985
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,839
Speaker 3: the better team as presently constructed on paper.

1986
01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:55,240
Speaker 2: Can I tell you a beautiful story about the Detroit Lions.

1987
01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:59,600
Speaker 4: You want some violins behind it or something. Marketing may

1988
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:03,400
Speaker 4: need some issues. He made some tears. Glasswick's game was

1989
01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,559
Speaker 4: sealed when Derek Barnes made that interception. Obviously, it was

1990
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:09,120
Speaker 4: his first and only interception of the year this year.

1991
01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:14,000
Speaker 2: Derek Barnes was born in nearby Covington, Kentucky, and he

1992
01:34:14,080 --> 01:34:18,240
Speaker 2: went to glen oh Swing Elementary School. That school in

1993
01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:21,800
Speaker 2: Covington this week had a Derek Barnes Detroit Lions Day

1994
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:25,280
Speaker 2: on Friday. More than that, Derek Barnes went to Holy

1995
01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:28,240
Speaker 2: Cross High School in northern Kentucky and he was coached

1996
01:34:28,439 --> 01:34:31,600
Speaker 2: by Bruce Kozerski, who played for the Bengals. And I

1997
01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:35,040
Speaker 2: thought that Derek Barnes story was unbelievable. Everybody rallied around

1998
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:37,920
Speaker 2: in Covington, Kentucky, which is a city so the south

1999
01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:40,920
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati, right over the Ohio River, and he went

2000
01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:43,240
Speaker 2: to glen O's Swing Elementary. It was a big deal.

2001
01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think they do that in many

2002
01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:47,439
Speaker 2: cities for the local kids that play in their school.

2003
01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:50,679
Speaker 2: But that at Derek Barnes Day at the elementary school,

2004
01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:51,479
Speaker 2: I thought it was wonderfully.

2005
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:53,960
Speaker 4: I gotta say, I just pulled up the greatest image

2006
01:34:54,000 --> 01:34:59,240
Speaker 4: of the aforementioned Bruce Kozerski and it's a nineteen ninety

2007
01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:02,120
Speaker 4: two tops card that I will go buy multiple copies

2008
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:04,120
Speaker 4: to send to anybody who wants one.

2009
01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:07,040
Speaker 2: He teaches math at holy Cross High School in Kentucky.

2010
01:35:07,080 --> 01:35:09,080
Speaker 4: This might be the greatest card ever. I don't know

2011
01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:12,000
Speaker 4: what happened on the play, but he's got his Bengals

2012
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:15,280
Speaker 4: helmet gloriously thrust above his head. He's screaming, and he's

2013
01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:18,320
Speaker 4: got one of the finest mustaches I've ever seen. Not

2014
01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:23,160
Speaker 4: to mention one of those great Midwestern names, Kozerski. Right

2048
01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:19,000
Speaker 4: freeways as I was rolling in multiple billboards saying Harbaugh

Speaker 4: twenty four, get your tickets now, great, love it, leaning

2050
01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:29,839
Speaker 4: full into the gym Harbaugh higher here in Los Angeles.

2051
01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:32,000
Speaker 4: I did a radio spot. I've been doing one in

2052
01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:34,680
Speaker 4: Baltimore for years, and one of the first questions I

2053
01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:38,479
Speaker 4: got is what's the response there, Like, well, you might

2054
01:37:38,520 --> 01:37:40,400
Speaker 4: as well line them up for the Super Bowl already

2055
01:37:40,479 --> 01:37:42,639
Speaker 4: if you listen to most of the people here in LA.

2056
01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:45,719
Speaker 4: I mean, that's it. No matter, all good things happen

2057
01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:49,559
Speaker 4: doesn't matter that you've got an aging squad, doesn't matter

2058
01:37:49,600 --> 01:37:52,320
Speaker 4: that outside of the quarterback, you just have question marks

2059
01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:54,639
Speaker 4: at a lot of It's like you're playing a Mario

2060
01:37:54,680 --> 01:37:57,679
Speaker 4: Brothers game. Say, we were just talking about theme parks here.

2061
01:37:57,800 --> 01:37:59,040
Speaker 4: So it's one of those things where I got to

2062
01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:01,160
Speaker 4: go buy the question mark and figure out what's going on.

2063
01:38:01,360 --> 01:38:03,240
Speaker 4: We got a lot of that, but it doesn't matter

2064
01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:05,640
Speaker 4: because you got the coach. Two teams still trying to

2065
01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:09,519
Speaker 4: figure out that last piece of the puzzle. Seattle and Washington.

2066
01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:13,439
Speaker 4: We saw Callahan named coach Raheem Morris gets another shot

2067
01:38:13,800 --> 01:38:17,160
Speaker 4: down there in Atlanta and all those staffs starting to

2068
01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:21,320
Speaker 4: come together. But now we've got Seattle and Washington. Washington

2069
01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:25,800
Speaker 4: obviously with that early pick, Seattle desirable because look, at

2070
01:38:25,800 --> 01:38:27,760
Speaker 4: one point it looked like dan Quinn was just gonna

2071
01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:30,040
Speaker 4: walk right back in there, didn't he. Oh, and then

2072
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:31,120
Speaker 4: the playoffs happened.

2073
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:35,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, like he's a little distracted, lost his focus.

2074
01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:37,920
Speaker 4: You got to keep your composure, Bucky.

2075
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:40,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, lost his ability to kind of defense.

2076
01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:44,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it didn't go well.

2077
01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:47,800
Speaker 1: Didn't look good? Did that look good for him?

2078
01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:53,879
Speaker 4: So Mike McDonald, Greg Roman, like he's you know, rumored

2079
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,920
Speaker 4: out here in Los Angeles. But and then you've got,

2080
01:38:56,960 --> 01:39:00,760
Speaker 4: of course the wonder can Ben Johnson? Are those the

2081
01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 4: guys that look like they're gonna get there? And remember

2082
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:05,559
Speaker 4: it's Mike McDonald, not to be confused by the man

2083
01:39:05,600 --> 01:39:09,640
Speaker 4: of the Doobie Brothers. Although if they win, you know,

2084
01:39:09,760 --> 01:39:11,559
Speaker 4: and he can trade on it, maybe he has taking

2085
01:39:11,600 --> 01:39:15,360
Speaker 4: it to the streets keep a shot. But you know, hey,

2086
01:39:15,439 --> 01:39:16,639
Speaker 4: I remember that what's happening.

2087
01:39:16,720 --> 01:39:18,840
Speaker 2: You may want to add one more name because rumor

2088
01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:22,720
Speaker 2: has it that should the Chiefs get eliminated or even

2089
01:39:22,720 --> 01:39:25,360
Speaker 2: when the season is over, Andy Reid's going to retire.

2090
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:28,519
Speaker 4: How much do you buy that? Though?

2091
01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:31,960
Speaker 2: Andy? I think if he wins it all, to retire.

2092
01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:36,240
Speaker 4: Even with another However, many years of empire with Patrick

2093
01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:38,360
Speaker 4: Mahomes in the offing, well he.

2094
01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:41,680
Speaker 2: Saw the empire began to crack a little bit in midseason,

2095
01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:44,160
Speaker 2: a little bit. But I think if he wins it all,

2096
01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:44,960
Speaker 2: he'll walk away.

2097
01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:46,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he found a guy in Rashid Rice that

2098
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:49,439
Speaker 4: can actually catch him the ball. And once they got

2099
01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:51,880
Speaker 4: to the playoffs, suddenly all these guys had super glue

2100
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:54,120
Speaker 4: on their hands. Bucky, what's that all about?

2101
01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:55,080
Speaker 1: Yeah?

2102
01:39:55,080 --> 01:39:57,760
Speaker 3: I don't I don't necessarily see that because, as I

2103
01:39:57,800 --> 01:40:00,719
Speaker 3: was telling Andy, I think the situation and is different.

2104
01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:04,559
Speaker 3: Like they've done that before with Scott Pioli. I don't

2105
01:40:04,600 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 3: think they want to redo that in Kansas City, no

2106
01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:11,040
Speaker 3: matter how great Bill Belichick is and how weird would

2107
01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:14,400
Speaker 3: it be for Bill Belichick to step in behind a legend,

2108
01:40:14,840 --> 01:40:16,920
Speaker 3: you know, because what Andy.

2109
01:40:16,640 --> 01:40:19,679
Speaker 1: Reid is close to doing is we've talked.

2110
01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:22,040
Speaker 3: About this era of dominance for the New England Patriots

2111
01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:24,880
Speaker 3: and Bill Belichick over the last twenty years. When you

2112
01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:27,000
Speaker 3: start to pull up Andy Reid's resume, if he puts

2113
01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:29,479
Speaker 3: another ring up on the board, you start thinking about

2114
01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:31,560
Speaker 3: what he did in Philadelphia, going to all those championship

2115
01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:34,440
Speaker 3: games and those things. You begin to have a conversation

2116
01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:37,679
Speaker 3: about who really is the greatest coach of this era

2117
01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:42,000
Speaker 3: that we're talking about. Because six straight titles, six straight

2118
01:40:42,080 --> 01:40:47,640
Speaker 3: AFC championship games, three titles in four years, the conversation

2119
01:40:47,800 --> 01:40:49,880
Speaker 3: turns a little bit. And then Belichick having to step

2120
01:40:49,880 --> 01:40:52,080
Speaker 3: in for him, Yeah, I don't know. I don't know

2121
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:54,600
Speaker 3: if he could step in and replace a legend in

2122
01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:55,200
Speaker 3: Andy Reid.

2123
01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:57,400
Speaker 4: See, I thought he was going to storm the castle

2124
01:40:57,439 --> 01:40:59,080
Speaker 4: and take over Seattle.

2125
01:40:59,400 --> 01:41:05,120
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick. Yeah, washed, it is the place f him,

2126
01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:06,720
Speaker 2: I really do. They got the second pit. They're gonna

2127
01:41:06,720 --> 01:41:08,880
Speaker 2: get a quarterback, he needs one, and that division is

2128
01:41:08,880 --> 01:41:10,400
Speaker 2: not that strong. He's got a shot there.

2129
01:41:11,040 --> 01:41:13,240
Speaker 3: The only thing is here, here's the thing, and here's

2130
01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:15,240
Speaker 3: what we'll talk about.

2131
01:41:15,640 --> 01:41:16,599
Speaker 1: Decision makers.

2132
01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:20,719
Speaker 3: Guys who have powerful jobs don't like to relinquish power.

2133
01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:25,080
Speaker 3: So once you hired a general manager, what general manager

2134
01:41:25,120 --> 01:41:26,640
Speaker 3: in his right mind is saying, oh, yeah, you know

2135
01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:29,120
Speaker 3: what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna bring in Bill Belichick

2136
01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:31,320
Speaker 3: and let him come in and take some of my

2137
01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:31,960
Speaker 3: power away.

2138
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:34,360
Speaker 4: Well, because that's cuentually what happened in Atlanta, right, Like

2139
01:41:34,439 --> 01:41:36,640
Speaker 4: McKay goes over and evidently he's going to just be

2140
01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:41,400
Speaker 4: a soccer guy now, is what they reporting is right, So, hey,

2141
01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:43,400
Speaker 4: you know what, you're not even in football anymore. You

2142
01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:45,919
Speaker 4: go over there. But then you have font No the GM,

2143
01:41:46,840 --> 01:41:49,160
Speaker 4: and now Raheem Morris comes in and look a guy

2144
01:41:49,160 --> 01:41:52,000
Speaker 4: they had familiarity with. So I think everybody's forgetting it.

2145
01:41:55,160 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 1: Let's let's explain that.

2146
01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:58,320
Speaker 3: Let's talk about that even further, Raheem Morris, because I

2147
01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:00,639
Speaker 3: don't think people are really talking about this different ways

2148
01:42:00,640 --> 01:42:01,799
Speaker 3: that Raheem has history.

2149
01:42:02,200 --> 01:42:05,400
Speaker 1: So obviously Rich McKay was involved in the hiring.

2150
01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:07,599
Speaker 3: Maybe he was the one that was like, man, if

2151
01:42:07,640 --> 01:42:09,360
Speaker 3: I let Bill Belichick come in here, what does that

2152
01:42:09,439 --> 01:42:12,200
Speaker 3: mean for me? I'm Arthur Blank's best friend, but that

2153
01:42:12,240 --> 01:42:14,679
Speaker 3: doesn't guarantee that I'm going to be around in any

2154
01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:17,960
Speaker 3: capacity to cash this big check. Let me lean back

2155
01:42:17,960 --> 01:42:18,519
Speaker 3: into my past.

2156
01:42:18,560 --> 01:42:19,080
Speaker 1: Who do I know?

2157
01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:23,160
Speaker 3: Oh, I was instrumental and Raheem Morris getting the Tampa

2158
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:26,519
Speaker 3: I was instrumental in maybe him elevating to head coach

2159
01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:28,719
Speaker 3: after they dumped John Grutin.

2160
01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:33,000
Speaker 1: Okay, Raheem has been here. Remember Raheem took over.

2161
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:36,280
Speaker 3: As interim head coach years ago when Dan Quinn was

2162
01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:39,560
Speaker 3: the head coach and got fired. Oh, the last successful

2163
01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:41,679
Speaker 3: era of the Atlanta Falcons was Dan Quinn.

2164
01:42:41,800 --> 01:42:44,200
Speaker 1: Well, maybe if I bring Raheem in, I get a

2165
01:42:44,240 --> 01:42:45,160
Speaker 1: little bit of that.

2166
01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:47,439
Speaker 3: I get a little bit of the Shanahan thing, because

2167
01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:50,720
Speaker 3: he was our wide receiver coach when Shanahan was the

2168
01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:55,640
Speaker 3: offensive gurgu that made Matt Ryan MVP. And if I

2169
01:42:55,720 --> 01:42:59,639
Speaker 3: bring him in, I may keep my job. Hey, Raheem

2170
01:43:00,040 --> 01:43:00,720
Speaker 3: should be the guy.

2171
01:43:00,840 --> 01:43:02,240
Speaker 1: Arthur. Let's do that.

2172
01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:05,559
Speaker 3: Do whatever. I'll go deal with the soccer team. But

2173
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:08,040
Speaker 3: we'll see in two years Rich mccahab be back to

2174
01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:09,280
Speaker 3: dealing with something in football.

2175
01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:11,320
Speaker 1: He'll be bad. He never goes away for too long.

2176
01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 1: He'll be back. But it's a.

2177
01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:16,640
Speaker 3: Way for everybody to guard their desks and keep the

2178
01:43:16,760 --> 01:43:18,519
Speaker 3: name plate on their lockers.

2179
01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:21,679
Speaker 2: Okay, but it's not so strange of a hire because

2180
01:43:22,200 --> 01:43:24,280
Speaker 2: he is a guy with head coaching experience. He coached

2181
01:43:24,280 --> 01:43:27,000
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay from nine to eleven and at the time

2182
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:28,800
Speaker 2: I think it was a thirty of thirty two years old,

2183
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:30,600
Speaker 2: was the youngest head coach in the NFL at the

2184
01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:31,320
Speaker 2: time in Tampa.

2185
01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:34,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was just more I think the point not

2186
01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:37,559
Speaker 4: to jump you, Bucky, but the idea that with Belichick

2187
01:43:37,600 --> 01:43:40,080
Speaker 4: going back for the second interview, I think everybody just

2188
01:43:40,160 --> 01:43:42,640
Speaker 4: kind of considered it was a slam dunk, right, and

2189
01:43:43,040 --> 01:43:45,920
Speaker 4: it wasn't really thinking about the power structure as we're

2190
01:43:45,920 --> 01:43:51,080
Speaker 4: talking about here. Not to mention Morris's familiarity in history

2191
01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:55,519
Speaker 4: with this franchise and the PA. Not to mention Atlanta.

2192
01:43:55,720 --> 01:43:57,840
Speaker 4: Jason Cole was on with US Friday with Smith and

2193
01:43:57,880 --> 01:44:00,960
Speaker 4: I and he brought up something I thought that was interesting.

2194
01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:04,719
Speaker 4: Maybe has a little bit of the pie that comes

2195
01:44:04,760 --> 01:44:08,200
Speaker 4: in when you talk about bringing in and bringing back

2196
01:44:09,360 --> 01:44:12,559
Speaker 4: what was a popular African American coach, and we're talking

2197
01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:17,040
Speaker 4: about younger coaches, and you know when you're selling into

2198
01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:19,080
Speaker 4: you back into your community of hey, it's a new era,

2199
01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:20,479
Speaker 4: it's a new era.

2200
01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:23,720
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, let's go back to that, because there was

2201
01:44:23,760 --> 01:44:27,200
Speaker 3: a time where Atlanta it was the most popular spot

2202
01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:29,960
Speaker 3: to be when you talk about the urban presence that

2203
01:44:30,040 --> 01:44:32,960
Speaker 3: you had. Now you lost some of that with the

2204
01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:36,280
Speaker 3: Mike Vick scandal. Sure, but prior to that, if you

2205
01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:38,360
Speaker 3: go back and you look at how Atlanta was doing

2206
01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:40,240
Speaker 3: and how it was seld up and how the feel

2207
01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:43,240
Speaker 3: was in the Dome, I mean, it was as urban.

2208
01:44:42,960 --> 01:44:44,120
Speaker 1: As it could be.

2209
01:44:44,560 --> 01:44:47,320
Speaker 3: And not saying that Raheem Morris got hired because of

2210
01:44:47,360 --> 01:44:50,240
Speaker 3: all of those external factors. Right, if you really look

2211
01:44:50,320 --> 01:44:52,360
Speaker 3: down and dig down, he's one of the best coaches

2212
01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:54,400
Speaker 3: that you had. Mike tomland told me years ago, look

2213
01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:57,639
Speaker 3: what Raheem Morris has done in terms of the way

2214
01:44:57,720 --> 01:45:00,639
Speaker 3: that he's gone from offense to defense and and back.

2215
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:03,559
Speaker 1: He said, that's the stuff of legends. Think about Tom

2216
01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:05,760
Speaker 1: Landry and what Tom Landry.

2217
01:45:05,360 --> 01:45:08,679
Speaker 3: Did way back yesteryear with the Giants before he went

2218
01:45:08,920 --> 01:45:11,240
Speaker 3: from being a defensive coordinated with the Giants to being

2219
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:14,720
Speaker 3: the guy who eventually called offensive plays for the Cowboys

2220
01:45:14,760 --> 01:45:17,599
Speaker 3: as the head coach. So he's saying this dude has

2221
01:45:17,640 --> 01:45:20,040
Speaker 3: pedigree and he certainly does do that and the job

2222
01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:22,240
Speaker 3: that he did with the Rams as defensive coordinator.

2223
01:45:22,640 --> 01:45:23,679
Speaker 1: Look, he deserves mention.

2224
01:45:23,800 --> 01:45:27,200
Speaker 3: But in twenty twenty, Raheem Morris and Raheen Morris was

2225
01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:30,280
Speaker 3: the interim head coach for the Falcons four and seven.

2226
01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,360
Speaker 3: But there was a conversation that was had prior to

2227
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:35,600
Speaker 3: them falling off at the end that he might have

2228
01:45:35,640 --> 01:45:38,400
Speaker 3: gotten that job after dan Quinn. Maybe it's also Arthur

2229
01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:40,960
Speaker 3: Blank recognizing that maybe he should have handed him the job.

2230
01:45:41,080 --> 01:45:46,560
Speaker 1: Then after a up and down run with Arthur Smith.

2231
01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:48,360
Speaker 2: I want to go back to what the swollen done

2232
01:45:48,360 --> 01:45:50,559
Speaker 2: said about the second interview. We photos a slam dunk

2233
01:45:50,720 --> 01:45:53,280
Speaker 2: with Belichick going to Atlanta. Yeah, and you keep on

2234
01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:57,320
Speaker 2: throwing out that power structure. Tell me him expand on that.

2235
01:45:57,400 --> 01:45:59,519
Speaker 2: What does that mean? Does it mean like Bill Belichick

2236
01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:01,960
Speaker 2: told the stand on the table in the office and say, no,

2237
01:46:02,240 --> 01:46:04,360
Speaker 2: you can't draft this kind I mean, what kind of

2238
01:46:04,439 --> 01:46:05,760
Speaker 2: power does he wheel.

2239
01:46:06,600 --> 01:46:09,280
Speaker 4: Well, but it's been presumptive. I mean, go back to

2240
01:46:09,479 --> 01:46:13,639
Speaker 4: the draft during COVID where it was him and his dog. Right, Hey,

2241
01:46:13,680 --> 01:46:14,920
Speaker 4: there's our draft war room.

2242
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:17,439
Speaker 2: But it's not like he does no football.

2243
01:46:17,479 --> 01:46:19,599
Speaker 4: I mean, no, no, no, But it's the point of,

2244
01:46:19,920 --> 01:46:22,280
Speaker 4: you know, collaborative the last three years. Look, I argue

2245
01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:25,519
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick the coach has his fastball and can coach

2246
01:46:25,560 --> 01:46:28,000
Speaker 4: as long as he wants. Cool Belichick the guy that

2247
01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:29,840
Speaker 4: builds team. He needs some help.

2248
01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:31,599
Speaker 2: He needs some help.

2249
01:46:31,640 --> 01:46:33,960
Speaker 4: He shouldn't be having the final say of roster because

2250
01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:37,479
Speaker 4: clearly he's gotten that wrong in a number of cases.

2251
01:46:37,800 --> 01:46:39,680
Speaker 4: But do we know one of his biggest supporters.

2252
01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:41,760
Speaker 2: I am too, But do we know that that's his

2253
01:46:41,920 --> 01:46:44,040
Speaker 2: been through the finals? I mean those quarterbacks that are

2254
01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:46,719
Speaker 2: playing in New England? Now, was that his pick? His final? Say?

2255
01:46:46,920 --> 01:46:48,640
Speaker 2: I will tell you one thing, though he's got he's

2256
01:46:48,640 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 2: got a big question walk about the assistant coaches he's

2257
01:46:50,960 --> 01:46:52,320
Speaker 2: been hiring, Patricia.

2258
01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:54,760
Speaker 4: But that's the point, though, Andy, It becomes the whole

2259
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:57,479
Speaker 4: structure thing between what you're putting on the field and

2260
01:46:57,520 --> 01:47:00,479
Speaker 4: the guys that you've been putting on the sidelines. I agree,

2261
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:01,479
Speaker 4: you got a lot of questions.

2262
01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:03,720
Speaker 2: So are you going to Malapatricia's defensive guyment of the

2263
01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:04,400
Speaker 2: offensive court?

2264
01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:07,040
Speaker 4: So if you're gonna like look at that decision making,

2265
01:47:07,080 --> 01:47:09,559
Speaker 4: doesn't that make you ask more questions of him if

2266
01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:11,559
Speaker 4: he comes in for an interview. I know your resume,

2267
01:47:11,640 --> 01:47:14,280
Speaker 4: I know your history, but these last two years, you

2268
01:47:14,360 --> 01:47:16,320
Speaker 4: really got to explain this to me like I'm five

2269
01:47:16,400 --> 01:47:19,760
Speaker 4: years old to make this make sense, and.

2270
01:47:19,720 --> 01:47:21,360
Speaker 2: That's going to hold them back from getting a job.

2271
01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:23,479
Speaker 2: I can't believe it. I can't believe what.

2272
01:47:23,560 --> 01:47:26,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna trust you blindly that you're suddenly going to

2273
01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:28,880
Speaker 4: be a wizard again and not make the same mistakes

2274
01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:30,719
Speaker 4: with me. Bucky, tell me I'm wrong.

2275
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:34,479
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I'm more in line to believe like Harmon

2276
01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:38,240
Speaker 3: is on to something, because it's not only like the

2277
01:47:38,320 --> 01:47:41,439
Speaker 3: lack of success, it's what we've heard from all the

2278
01:47:41,479 --> 01:47:46,520
Speaker 3: other franchises that have employed former Patriot assistants, like the acrimony,

2279
01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:51,360
Speaker 3: just to look the relationships not getting along from coach

2280
01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:55,600
Speaker 3: to player, from coach to everyone in the organization, particularly

2281
01:47:55,680 --> 01:48:00,680
Speaker 3: including the media. Do you want that to be representative

2282
01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:01,560
Speaker 3: of your franchise?

2283
01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:03,960
Speaker 1: Do you want to be the a we don't get along?

2284
01:48:04,000 --> 01:48:06,760
Speaker 3: With anybody but a the wins will come If you're

2285
01:48:06,760 --> 01:48:07,519
Speaker 3: not winning, man.

2286
01:48:07,400 --> 01:48:08,599
Speaker 1: That's a hard life.

2287
01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:11,839
Speaker 3: Everyone has talked about how miserable it is to exist

2288
01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,160
Speaker 3: in those environments. And I'm saying I support Bill Belichick

2289
01:48:15,160 --> 01:48:17,120
Speaker 3: because I think he is the greatest coach that we've

2290
01:48:17,120 --> 01:48:19,840
Speaker 3: seen at the pro level. What he's done should be

2291
01:48:19,880 --> 01:48:23,080
Speaker 3: emulated in terms of what they do tactically and strategically

2292
01:48:23,160 --> 01:48:23,920
Speaker 3: and how.

2293
01:48:23,760 --> 01:48:24,599
Speaker 1: He goes about it.

2294
01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:28,599
Speaker 3: But it doesn't necessarily have to be the Cold War

2295
01:48:28,840 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 3: in the building. And it's very similar to the Greg

2296
01:48:31,439 --> 01:48:34,840
Speaker 3: Popovich thing. Hey, everybody loves it until they don't. Like

2297
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:38,559
Speaker 3: everybody loves it and winning, you tolerate it. But when

2298
01:48:38,560 --> 01:48:40,919

Speaker 3: it's not going well.

2301
01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:46,720
Speaker 1: So staying why there will be some hesbitancy.

2302
01:48:46,920 --> 01:48:48,960
Speaker 2: The media and Atlanta probably loved that he didn't get

2411
01:54:23,720 --> 01:54:25,960
Speaker 4: bet that he put on this game. He's got a

2412
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:28,479
Speaker 4: giant tattoo on his arm that' says super Bowl Champs

2413
01:54:28,479 --> 01:54:33,840
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four, look at you, Alec Chapesca and all

2414
01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:36,560
Speaker 4: of this. I had a feeling. He's forty three years old.

2415
01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:40,080
Speaker 4: This was with People magazine quote. I've never been so

2416
01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:43,040
Speaker 4: sure of something. You ever have a vision like that, Bucky,

2417
01:54:43,360 --> 01:54:45,680
Speaker 4: where you were gonna go and I don't know, maybe

2418
01:54:45,680 --> 01:54:49,160
Speaker 4: get a giant tattoo on your back or something, or

2419
01:54:49,200 --> 01:54:53,839
Speaker 4: do something drastic, just because you had a feeling. A hunch,

2420
01:54:53,960 --> 01:54:58,040
Speaker 4: a hunch, not even a hey, I've got empirical evidence

2421
01:54:58,080 --> 01:54:59,960
Speaker 4: to tell me this is in the realm of possible,

2422
01:55:00,680 --> 01:55:02,800
Speaker 4: you know, like relationships you hang around with some in

2423
01:55:02,800 --> 01:55:04,600
Speaker 4: a while you could say, hey, this is moving in

2424
01:55:04,640 --> 01:55:08,680
Speaker 4: a good direction. You're like, I like doing I don't

2425
01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:11,360
Speaker 4: know whatever the subject is. Maybe that'll be my major

2426
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:14,440
Speaker 4: in college. This was Ah, the Lions, all these years

2427
01:55:14,440 --> 01:55:17,120
Speaker 4: of futility, Let's get a tattoo.

2428
01:55:20,440 --> 01:55:23,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean that's a lot now, I mean

2429
01:55:23,040 --> 01:55:24,520
Speaker 3: that is a lot that you're dealing with.

2430
01:55:24,640 --> 01:55:25,480
Speaker 2: Can I remove the book?

2431
01:55:25,600 --> 01:55:28,240
Speaker 3: Is great if someone wants to do it, they want

2432
01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:29,720
Speaker 3: to be ahead of the curve, But yeah, I need

2433
01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:31,680
Speaker 3: to see it done before I do it. But I

2434
01:55:31,760 --> 01:55:34,560
Speaker 3: appreciate the faith, the leap of faith.

2435
01:55:34,760 --> 01:55:36,800
Speaker 1: That he just played. Hats off to my man.

2436
01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:38,840
Speaker 2: There you go. You know, I had a problem like

2437
01:55:38,920 --> 01:55:41,200
Speaker 2: that once, way back when when they opened up the

2438
01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,840
Speaker 2: fifth third Arena the campus of the University of Cincinnati.

2439
01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:47,280
Speaker 2: The first game ever played there. Bob Hopkins was coaching

2440
01:55:47,320 --> 01:55:49,880
Speaker 2: at the time, and they played University of Minnesota. And

2441
01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:52,040
Speaker 2: I was on the radio when Cincinnati. I said, there's

2442
01:55:52,120 --> 01:55:56,240
Speaker 2: no way on God's green Earth that honestly Cincinnati beats

2443
01:55:56,280 --> 01:55:59,320
Speaker 2: Minnesota in that game, all right, So I bet that

2444
01:55:59,360 --> 01:56:03,160
Speaker 2: they could shave my head if Cincinnati would win that game.

2445
01:56:03,520 --> 01:56:05,839
Speaker 2: And sure enough, a kid but the name of Steve Sanders,

2446
01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:08,720
Speaker 2: never forget it, hits a shot at the buzzer at

2447
01:56:08,760 --> 01:56:11,760
Speaker 2: Cincinnati beats Minnesota. And the next day I go down

2448
01:56:11,800 --> 01:56:13,880
Speaker 2: to the fifth third Arena and every kid on that

2449
01:56:13,920 --> 01:56:17,640
Speaker 2: team shaved my head completely bald. And more than that,

2450
01:56:17,960 --> 01:56:19,520
Speaker 2: not only did they shave a ball, they left a

2451
01:56:19,680 --> 01:56:22,040
Speaker 2: uc in the back of my head. They took a

2452
01:56:22,080 --> 01:56:24,000
Speaker 2: picture and it made the Sporting News.

2453
01:56:24,400 --> 01:56:28,360
Speaker 4: That's pretty good. Yeah, great, you got tackled by Iron

2454
01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:30,880
Speaker 4: Zering of Beverly Hills nine on two and zero. Good

2455
01:56:30,880 --> 01:56:32,960
Speaker 4: for you. Yeah, thank you, Steve Sanders.

2456
01:56:33,480 --> 01:56:36,800
Speaker 2: Steve Sanders still in Cincinnaties.

2457
01:56:35,840 --> 01:56:38,480
Speaker 4: How about that? But that's pretty good. But it's at

2458
01:56:38,600 --> 01:56:40,000
Speaker 4: least at an age where your hair is going to

2459
01:56:40,080 --> 01:56:44,480
Speaker 4: grow back. Man, there's the famous Seinfeld episode where you know,

2460
01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,440
Speaker 4: there's John Michael Higgins hanging out with a Lane and

2461
01:56:47,480 --> 01:56:49,920
Speaker 4: she's like, wait, I could be dating that hair because

2462
01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:51,840
Speaker 4: you know, I shaved it for my swim team. So

2463
01:56:51,880 --> 01:56:54,400
Speaker 4: he tries to regrow it and it's not coming back.

2464
01:56:55,080 --> 01:56:57,840
Speaker 4: Like if I did that now in my advanced years,

2465
01:56:57,880 --> 01:57:00,000
Speaker 4: I don't know that it's coming back. Andy, So I'm

2466
01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:03,240
Speaker 4: I'm not going down that road wearing those caps. Now,

2467
01:57:03,240 --> 01:57:06,520
Speaker 4: that's it. I got my beautiful Northwestern ball cap on

2468
01:57:07,120 --> 01:57:09,240
Speaker 4: after their beatdown of the Oh House dates.

2469
01:57:09,280 --> 01:57:11,880
Speaker 2: See, but you're a frontrunner, you won't wear a Chicago Bears.

2470
01:57:11,600 --> 01:57:14,280
Speaker 4: Hat, though I wear the Bears hat almost every day.

2471
01:57:14,360 --> 01:57:16,600
Speaker 4: Marks Mark's got his hands over his head, going what

2472
01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:19,200
Speaker 4: he's talking about. He's wearing a white Sox cap our

2473
01:57:19,240 --> 01:57:23,040
Speaker 4: technical producer and obviously got ian and normally clad in

2474
01:57:23,080 --> 01:57:25,720
Speaker 4: all of his jets gear because he's a believer. And

2475
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:29,720
Speaker 4: speak of believing, do you believe, Hey, Coach Prime's kids

2476
01:57:29,800 --> 01:57:32,240
Speaker 4: got together and bought him a new house.

2477
01:57:33,240 --> 01:57:33,440
Speaker 1: You know.

2478
01:57:33,520 --> 01:57:35,840
Speaker 2: I read the story about that, and nowhere in the

2479
01:57:35,880 --> 01:57:37,800
Speaker 2: story does to say where they got the money from.

2480
01:57:37,840 --> 01:57:39,600
Speaker 2: Now that's what I'd like to know. Well, a lot

2481
01:57:39,600 --> 01:57:40,880
Speaker 2: of I l house.

2482
01:57:40,760 --> 01:57:43,080
Speaker 4: A lot of nil. You guys were talking about nil

2483
01:57:43,200 --> 01:57:46,680
Speaker 4: dollars a little bit earlier. We we know Shador you

2484
01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:49,200
Speaker 4: know was in the millions, or at least that was

2485
01:57:49,240 --> 01:57:51,960
Speaker 4: the estimate back at the end of September.

2486
01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:53,720
Speaker 2: Your kids of it, buy you a house?

2487
01:57:54,080 --> 01:57:56,800
Speaker 4: My kids, I'm lucky if they remember my birthday. Guys,

2488
01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:02,560
Speaker 4: I'm only half kidding. Most people don't. I celebrated my

2489
01:58:02,600 --> 01:58:06,720
Speaker 4: tenth anniversary on air in mid October with Smith and Frostburg,

2490
01:58:06,760 --> 01:58:08,800
Speaker 4: and they looked at me like I was nuts, because

2491
01:58:08,800 --> 01:58:10,400
Speaker 4: I was like, Oh, I brought in the leftovers of

2492
01:58:10,400 --> 01:58:14,200
Speaker 4: a cake that we had that I bought from my birthday.

2493
01:58:14,560 --> 01:58:16,960
Speaker 4: You bought it, No, I had to buy my brain

2494
01:58:17,080 --> 01:58:20,520
Speaker 4: Like this is a hotly contested thing in the household.

2495
01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:22,040
Speaker 4: But for years I would have to go buy my

2496
01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:25,720
Speaker 4: own like nobody bothered. So now my kids are old enough,

2497
01:58:25,720 --> 01:58:27,760
Speaker 4: perhaps they'll take care of pops. I don't see them

2498
01:58:27,760 --> 01:58:29,680
Speaker 4: buying me a house anytime soon, but if they get

2499
01:58:29,680 --> 01:58:32,200
Speaker 4: that successful, I'm not going to ask where the money

2500
01:58:32,200 --> 01:58:35,720
Speaker 4: came from. That's between them their mortgage company in the

2501
01:58:35,760 --> 01:58:36,160
Speaker 4: I R S.

2502
01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:39,160
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, that's a great job.

2503
01:58:39,280 --> 01:58:42,280
Speaker 3: I mean, by their kids, Coach Brian being able to

2504
01:58:43,480 --> 01:58:46,440
Speaker 3: enjoy the fruits of his kids labor, that's that's pretty

2505
01:58:46,440 --> 01:58:47,520
Speaker 3: cool that they were able.

2506
01:58:47,320 --> 01:58:50,360
Speaker 2: To know that he enjoyed the fruits of alum's checks.

2507
01:58:50,440 --> 01:58:54,080
Speaker 4: Well right, Well, just like the paychecks that are getting

2508
01:58:54,120 --> 01:58:56,560
Speaker 4: cashed by Dion for his own work.

2509
01:58:56,680 --> 01:59:00,680
Speaker 2: No, yeah, crazy, And I mean it's just it's Look,

2510
01:59:00,840 --> 01:59:03,120
Speaker 2: if you're lucky enough to live in a region where

2511
01:59:03,400 --> 01:59:06,120
Speaker 2: college is king and you have some big time alums

2512
01:59:06,120 --> 01:59:08,440
Speaker 2: that have big time money, you're in great shape. You

2513
01:59:08,520 --> 01:59:11,240
Speaker 2: go to college that's in a major city like Northwestern,

2514
01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:15,600
Speaker 2: has it tough. They're in Chicago and basically at college,

2515
01:59:15,640 --> 01:59:17,760
Speaker 2: athletics take a second seat to the pros.

2516
01:59:17,840 --> 01:59:20,800
Speaker 4: Right, they should have had a first mover advantage. It's

2517
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:23,839
Speaker 4: one of my main complaints about the administration and everybody

2518
01:59:23,840 --> 01:59:26,880
Speaker 4: around the program. They're finally getting with it now. But

2519
01:59:27,600 --> 01:59:32,800
Speaker 4: places like there, Stanford, Syracuse for the athletes you're going after,

2520
01:59:32,880 --> 01:59:35,720
Speaker 4: you had a first mover advantage, and you didn't take

2521
01:59:35,720 --> 01:59:38,640
Speaker 4: advantage of it, given all the media people and all

2522
01:59:38,680 --> 01:59:41,600
Speaker 4: of the prominent alums that you could have tapped into.

2523
01:59:41,760 --> 01:59:43,760
Speaker 4: That you didn't do that early enough and get that

2524
01:59:43,880 --> 01:59:48,080
Speaker 4: together was just foolhardy. And say nothing of the administration,

2525
01:59:48,160 --> 01:59:50,840
Speaker 4: and they're handling of many other events these last couple

2526
01:59:50,840 --> 01:59:54,400
Speaker 4: of months. But yeah, look, in the end, if you

2527
01:59:54,400 --> 01:59:56,680
Speaker 4: can go get it, get it. If not, you're still

2528
01:59:56,720 --> 02:00:00,400
Speaker 4: getting a college education. And we keep diminishing that that

2529
02:00:00,480 --> 02:00:02,160
Speaker 4: you can still actually just go to school.

2530
02:00:03,160 --> 02:00:04,880
Speaker 2: Right, But it's a lot easier for a loans to

2531
02:00:05,080 --> 02:00:07,520
Speaker 2: pony up money to say, if you live in still Water,

2532
02:00:07,560 --> 02:00:10,320
Speaker 2: Oklahoma with a rich alum, because there's no other pro

2533
02:00:10,320 --> 02:00:13,240
Speaker 2: sports around that may be in Philadelphia.

2534
02:00:14,160 --> 02:00:17,440
Speaker 4: But they're not donating to the Eagles or whatever, like

2535
02:00:17,560 --> 02:00:20,520
Speaker 4: they're going to be loyal to their school. Andy, you're saying,

2536
02:00:20,600 --> 02:00:21,920
Speaker 4: all right, who are you picking?

2537
02:00:22,880 --> 02:00:25,760
Speaker 2: Oh me, Yeah, Detroit and Baltimore.

2538
02:00:25,920 --> 02:00:28,040
Speaker 4: There you go. We'll find out. Bucky and I continue

2539
02:00:28,120 --> 02:00:33,160
Speaker 4: next on Fox. Greetings and welcoming another beautiful edition Fox

2540
02:00:33,200 --> 02:00:38,240
Speaker 4: Football Sunday Championship Edition. Just two games on the slate today,

2541
02:00:38,480 --> 02:00:40,640
Speaker 4: which means you can actually get some other things done

2542
02:00:40,680 --> 02:00:44,240
Speaker 4: in your life because you're not running straight into kickoff.

2543
02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:46,400
Speaker 4: Get a little bit, Maybe you go back to sleep

2544
02:00:46,440 --> 02:00:48,320
Speaker 4: after the show in I don't know, take a nap

2545
02:00:48,360 --> 02:00:52,080
Speaker 4: and while you're listening to countdown to kickoff and getting

2546
02:00:52,160 --> 02:00:55,080
Speaker 4: some of those numbers in your head for your prop

2547
02:00:55,120 --> 02:00:57,800
Speaker 4: bets and all of that fun. Because those markets now expand,

2548
02:00:57,840 --> 02:01:00,160
Speaker 4: why because they need to keep the handle fl and

2549
02:01:00,200 --> 02:01:02,480
Speaker 4: they need to keep the churn with fewer games. The

2564
02:01:45,840 --> 02:01:48,920
Speaker 4: with our guy, Andy Furman. Three hours with you, Bucky

2565
02:01:49,000 --> 02:01:52,160
Speaker 4: this morning, covering so many topics. We'll revisit some of

2566
02:01:52,200 --> 02:01:56,440
Speaker 4: the hotspots across the landscape, but we got the two

2567
02:01:56,480 --> 02:01:59,120
Speaker 4: games later on. Today we're talking a lot about the

2568
02:01:59,160 --> 02:02:03,120
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahome now Tom Brady, and you know, as we're

2569
02:02:03,160 --> 02:02:06,840
Speaker 4: behind the scenes here and having our conversations, part of

2570
02:02:06,840 --> 02:02:10,160
Speaker 4: it becomes the we always love next and certainly we

2571
02:02:10,280 --> 02:02:14,400
Speaker 4: hit a point of saturation also, I guess, to just

2572
02:02:14,480 --> 02:02:17,880
Speaker 4: be blunt about it, we get tired of it, We

2573
02:02:17,960 --> 02:02:21,480
Speaker 4: get tired of things. And for the Patriots, Bill Belichick,

2574
02:02:21,920 --> 02:02:26,480
Speaker 4: Tom Brady, some will point to the nonsense that was

2575
02:02:26,600 --> 02:02:30,200
Speaker 4: to Flategate, go back further to Spygate. That's part of

2576
02:02:30,240 --> 02:02:33,320
Speaker 4: the Don Shula, let's go win as many games as

2577
02:02:33,360 --> 02:02:36,560
Speaker 4: we can, because he was not a fan of Belichick

2578
02:02:36,840 --> 02:02:39,960
Speaker 4: and everything there and the way they ran things. But

2579
02:02:40,240 --> 02:02:43,920
Speaker 4: for Patrick Mahomes, you're now in a place where if

2580
02:02:43,920 --> 02:02:46,840
Speaker 4: he gets back, just getting back to the super Bowl, Bucky,

2581
02:02:47,120 --> 02:02:51,080
Speaker 4: are we now changing the conversation of goat given the

2582
02:02:51,760 --> 02:02:54,400
Speaker 4: short amount of time it took him to get to

2583
02:02:54,480 --> 02:02:57,280
Speaker 4: these highly heralded marks.

2584
02:02:57,920 --> 02:03:02,000
Speaker 3: I think the comparison that we will with Pat Mahomes

2585
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:05,320
Speaker 3: to Tom Brady would be Tiger Woods.

2586
02:03:04,920 --> 02:03:06,360
Speaker 1: Chasing Jack Nicholas.

2587
02:03:06,880 --> 02:03:10,720
Speaker 3: I think what happens is we then can have the

2588
02:03:10,800 --> 02:03:13,600
Speaker 3: conversation about him being the goat because we can begin

2589
02:03:13,680 --> 02:03:14,160
Speaker 3: to kind.

2590
02:03:14,000 --> 02:03:15,040
Speaker 1: Of try and plot it out.

2591
02:03:15,480 --> 02:03:17,920
Speaker 3: If Pat Mahomes gets to the super Bowl, that's one thing.

2592
02:03:17,920 --> 02:03:20,240
Speaker 3: If he wins the super Bowl, that would give him

2593
02:03:20,280 --> 02:03:24,760
Speaker 3: three and six years. That would give him three out

2594
02:03:24,800 --> 02:03:29,320
Speaker 3: of four. It would put him halfway home to where

2595
02:03:29,480 --> 02:03:32,280
Speaker 3: tom Brady's kind of established himself. Because remember, even though

2596
02:03:32,320 --> 02:03:35,600
Speaker 3: we as a football consuming public don't like quarterback wins,

2597
02:03:35,920 --> 02:03:38,640
Speaker 3: the reason why tom Brady's considered the goat is because

2598
02:03:38,640 --> 02:03:41,120
Speaker 3: he has seven rings.

2599
02:03:41,800 --> 02:03:43,120
Speaker 1: He has to collect.

2600
02:03:42,920 --> 02:03:45,440
Speaker 3: Rings to be able to close the conversation, To close

2601
02:03:45,480 --> 02:03:50,080
Speaker 3: the gap on tom Brady another win and doing it

2602
02:03:50,120 --> 02:03:52,960
Speaker 3: the way that he would do it with an underdog team. Yeah,

2603
02:03:52,960 --> 02:03:55,840
Speaker 3: that would kind of begin to chop away at some

2604
02:03:55,880 --> 02:04:00,000
Speaker 3: of the mythical separation that tom Brady has over him.

2605
02:04:00,200 --> 02:04:02,840
Speaker 4: It's fun because we get into kind of the nuanced

2606
02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:07,640
Speaker 4: conversations right of most athletic quarterback, and however you want

2607
02:04:07,680 --> 02:04:09,600
Speaker 4: to make those arguments because the folks that want to

2608
02:04:09,640 --> 02:04:13,680
Speaker 4: stand for Aaron Rodgers, we'll talk about the most talented guy,

2609
02:04:13,840 --> 02:04:17,480
Speaker 4: or go back to Peyton Manning and his precision and

2610
02:04:17,520 --> 02:04:22,280
Speaker 4: everything else. All along the way we romanticize, you know,

2611
02:04:22,440 --> 02:04:25,200
Speaker 4: years ago, Oh, if only Dan Marino had X Y

2612
02:04:25,480 --> 02:04:29,400
Speaker 4: or Z or John Elway, if he'd gotten Terrell Davis

2613
02:04:29,400 --> 02:04:31,880
Speaker 4: a year or two sooner, all of those things kind

2614
02:04:31,880 --> 02:04:33,680
Speaker 4: of come into play. If the Buffalo Bills had ever

2615
02:04:33,720 --> 02:04:37,200
Speaker 4: gotten over once. And that's the beauty of sport, is

2616
02:04:37,240 --> 02:04:39,520
Speaker 4: that the you know, we were also in the the

2617
02:04:39,600 --> 02:04:41,520
Speaker 4: Marvel universe. I don't know how deep you go into

2618
02:04:41,560 --> 02:04:44,320
Speaker 4: your Disney Plus subscription, Bucky, but you got the what

2619
02:04:44,480 --> 02:04:48,879
Speaker 4: if scenarios, what if this happened, and here's your alternate universe.

2620
02:04:49,280 --> 02:04:51,480
Speaker 4: We got a lot of that in the National Football League,

2621
02:04:51,640 --> 02:04:53,840
Speaker 4: you know, like if a kicker doesn't kick one wide

2622
02:04:53,960 --> 02:04:57,040
Speaker 4: right forty years ago or last Sunday.

2623
02:04:59,000 --> 02:05:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean like that's kind of how that's kind

2624
02:05:02,080 --> 02:05:05,880
Speaker 3: of yet, Yeah, it's kind of funny how you brought

2625
02:05:05,960 --> 02:05:10,160
Speaker 3: up the Marvelcker characters and all those other guys and

2626
02:05:10,200 --> 02:05:12,480
Speaker 3: I know we'll have a conversation later about brock Purity

2627
02:05:12,480 --> 02:05:15,600
Speaker 3: and where brock pretty kind of fits in the landscape.

2628
02:05:15,760 --> 02:05:19,160
Speaker 3: I think it's funny because that man the noise on

2629
02:05:19,240 --> 02:05:22,520
Speaker 3: brock Purty, either you love him or hate him.

2630
02:05:23,400 --> 02:05:24,240
Speaker 1: Seen the quarterback.

2631
02:05:24,720 --> 02:05:26,920
Speaker 3: I've never seen a quarterback get so much of it

2632
02:05:27,120 --> 02:05:30,880
Speaker 3: either way. Right, So, for most of the season we

2633
02:05:30,920 --> 02:05:33,680
Speaker 3: were talking about brock Purity being the MVP, but then

2634
02:05:33,680 --> 02:05:37,160
Speaker 3: people were having a hard time envisioning brock pretty winning

2635
02:05:37,200 --> 02:05:40,920
Speaker 3: the MVP when you could say that Christian McCaffrey is

2636
02:05:40,960 --> 02:05:44,840
Speaker 3: to strayed, that stirs to drink. So I think some

2637
02:05:44,920 --> 02:05:46,920
Speaker 3: of the outrage that people have is you look at

2638
02:05:46,920 --> 02:05:48,800
Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes, you look at josh Allen, you look at

2639
02:05:48,880 --> 02:05:52,360
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson. You look at all those guys as like superheroes.

2640
02:05:52,440 --> 02:05:52,640
Speaker 1: Right.

2641
02:05:52,960 --> 02:05:57,080
Speaker 3: You can see the mystical, magical superpowers that they all possess.

2642
02:05:57,640 --> 02:06:00,480
Speaker 3: You know, Pat Mahomes and the arm talent, Josh Alan

2643
02:06:00,560 --> 02:06:03,240
Speaker 3: being like this wonder boy that can do it as

2644
02:06:03,280 --> 02:06:05,680
Speaker 3: a runner or thrower. Lamar Jackson they talk about his

2645
02:06:05,800 --> 02:06:08,440
Speaker 3: legs and his electric ability. And then you look at

2646
02:06:08,480 --> 02:06:11,840
Speaker 3: Rock Purty, right, and Brock Purdy looks like the common man.

2647
02:06:12,160 --> 02:06:16,880
Speaker 3: But to me, brock Purty is Tony Starks. Brock Purty

2648
02:06:16,960 --> 02:06:19,840
Speaker 3: is iron Man. You can't visually see that he is

2649
02:06:20,200 --> 02:06:22,880
Speaker 3: a superpower, but when you put the armor on, you

2650
02:06:23,000 --> 02:06:26,320
Speaker 3: surrounded with Deebo Samuel and Christa McCaffrey and George Kittle

2651
02:06:26,520 --> 02:06:29,400
Speaker 3: in the system that is orchestrated by the mad signedist

2652
02:06:29,440 --> 02:06:33,240
Speaker 3: Col Shanahan. He does play like a superhero. So I

2653
02:06:33,240 --> 02:06:36,600
Speaker 3: think we have to give him credit for being a

2654
02:06:36,640 --> 02:06:39,680
Speaker 3: part of the Avengers, but being a little different. He's

2655
02:06:39,720 --> 02:06:41,320
Speaker 3: just a little different than some of the other guys.

2656
02:06:41,360 --> 02:06:42,880
Speaker 3: He can't flame on like some of the guys.

2657
02:06:43,080 --> 02:06:46,160
Speaker 4: Oh, and he sacrificed himself laying out just like Tony Starks.

2658
02:06:46,160 --> 02:06:48,240
Speaker 4: See what I did there, I went all in game.

2659
02:06:48,320 --> 02:06:50,720
Speaker 4: I jok your analogy and I ran with it all

2660
02:06:50,720 --> 02:06:53,120
Speaker 4: the way to the end. Look, regular guy, you know

2661
02:06:53,160 --> 02:06:55,240
Speaker 4: they point out what he wears. I'll look at the

2662
02:06:55,320 --> 02:06:57,560
Speaker 4: cute backpack on his back because he walks.

2663
02:06:58,160 --> 02:06:59,080
Speaker 1: He doesn't have any money.

2664
02:06:59,680 --> 02:07:02,960
Speaker 4: But that's the thing, right, all that, alright, this guy

2665
02:07:03,040 --> 02:07:05,280
Speaker 4: is gonna make this much in this game versus him

2666
02:07:05,360 --> 02:07:08,480
Speaker 4: Like they're both still quarterbacks. They're both still playing for

2667
02:07:08,560 --> 02:07:12,080
Speaker 4: big stakes. And last week you know Purdy wasn't perfect,

2668
02:07:12,480 --> 02:07:15,520
Speaker 4: but he made the plays that mattered. Right, We talked

2669
02:07:15,520 --> 02:07:17,760
Speaker 4: about it all week long, and like there was a

2670
02:07:17,800 --> 02:07:20,680
Speaker 4: lot to love. No pun intended about what you saw

2671
02:07:20,760 --> 02:07:24,320
Speaker 4: from Jordan Love. But he made the unconscionable throw at

2672
02:07:24,360 --> 02:07:29,839
Speaker 4: the end. Throw that from you teaching high school football,

2673
02:07:30,240 --> 02:07:32,640
Speaker 4: which is why you didn't throw the ball a couple

2674
02:07:32,680 --> 02:07:34,200
Speaker 4: of years ago, and you just read it cause you

2675
02:07:34,200 --> 02:07:38,200
Speaker 4: didn't trust guys to make that decision. And so Jordan

2676
02:07:38,240 --> 02:07:40,240
Speaker 4: Love made that decision and cost him a game. Like

2677
02:07:40,280 --> 02:07:42,000
Speaker 4: he could have thrown the ball out of bounds, He

2678
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:44,160
Speaker 4: could have run out of bounds, could have slid down,

2679
02:07:44,440 --> 02:07:47,360
Speaker 4: done a million different things, lived to see another down,

2680
02:07:47,400 --> 02:07:50,120
Speaker 4: They still had time, they still had timeouts, all of that,

2681
02:07:50,520 --> 02:07:53,800
Speaker 4: and he made the bad decision. Rock Purdy when it mattered,

2682
02:07:54,600 --> 02:07:58,720
Speaker 4: was pinpoint precision and laid out his body on runs

2683
02:07:58,720 --> 02:08:03,280
Speaker 4: to extend play. Like Yet I'm telling the guys, I

2684
02:08:03,320 --> 02:08:05,080
Speaker 4: think a lot of it has to do you know,

2685
02:08:05,320 --> 02:08:08,200
Speaker 4: you talk about the iron Man armor. I think it's

2686
02:08:08,280 --> 02:08:10,840
Speaker 4: the branding of the forty nine ers logo on his

2687
02:08:10,920 --> 02:08:14,840
Speaker 4: helmet because it immediately starts, you know, evoking images. You

2688
02:08:14,880 --> 02:08:16,920
Speaker 4: want to go to Montana, You want to go to Steve.

2689
02:08:17,000 --> 02:08:19,400
Speaker 4: You you want to you to go back to Kaepernick

2690
02:08:19,920 --> 02:08:23,400
Speaker 4: when he was at his peak of his powers, right,

2691
02:08:23,480 --> 02:08:25,760
Speaker 4: all of those things, like you're comparing him to this

2692
02:08:26,000 --> 02:08:28,320
Speaker 4: historic place where there's a lot already a lot of

2693
02:08:28,320 --> 02:08:31,400
Speaker 4: hate and vitriol because everybody says, ah, there's no cheering

2694
02:08:31,400 --> 02:08:33,680
Speaker 4: in the press box. Now we can read between the

2695
02:08:33,720 --> 02:08:36,120
Speaker 4: lines in your ink a lot, or if you're on

2696
02:08:36,240 --> 02:08:39,560
Speaker 4: the radio or you're on television, we know where your

2697
02:08:39,600 --> 02:08:43,920
Speaker 4: loyalties lie. Oftentimes, as much as we, you know, can

2698
02:08:44,000 --> 02:08:46,960
Speaker 4: appreciate a player, there are teams that we don't like.

2699
02:08:47,000 --> 02:08:48,960
Speaker 4: I was talking with Mark about this, right growing up

2700
02:08:49,000 --> 02:08:51,880
Speaker 4: in Chicago, like we had the Bears on and then

2701
02:08:51,960 --> 02:08:54,640
Speaker 4: the second game, without fail was going to be the

2702
02:08:54,680 --> 02:08:57,680
Speaker 4: forty nine Ers or the Cowboys. So guess what you

2703
02:08:57,720 --> 02:09:00,920
Speaker 4: grow up with an unnatural hate of the Cowboys and

2704
02:09:00,960 --> 02:09:03,640
Speaker 4: forty nine ers a respect for them. But I wanted

2705
02:09:03,640 --> 02:09:05,400
Speaker 4: to see everything else, you know, I got the two

2706
02:09:05,480 --> 02:09:08,240
Speaker 4: minutes of you know, highlights every now and again where

2707
02:09:08,240 --> 02:09:11,360
Speaker 4: i'd see or the George Spy Michael Sports machine would

2708
02:09:11,360 --> 02:09:14,320
Speaker 4: crank up deep on a Sunday night and I'd get

2709
02:09:14,320 --> 02:09:16,720
Speaker 4: to see highlights of all these other mythical teams, but

2710
02:09:16,720 --> 02:09:18,640
Speaker 4: I sure as hell never saw them on a Sunday

2711
02:09:18,680 --> 02:09:19,320
Speaker 4: in Chicago.

2712
02:09:20,440 --> 02:09:24,000
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah. I mean that's how it goes. I mean,

2713
02:09:24,080 --> 02:09:27,720
Speaker 1: like we we love to hate the winners.

2714
02:09:27,880 --> 02:09:29,480
Speaker 4: Oh you're Atario, you get this.

2715
02:09:30,520 --> 02:09:30,880
Speaker 1: I love it.

2716
02:09:30,920 --> 02:09:32,720
Speaker 3: I mean, like, look, it's no different than I sat

2717
02:09:32,800 --> 02:09:36,520
Speaker 3: here yesterday and I watched the Duke Blue levels play

2718
02:09:36,560 --> 02:09:39,360
Speaker 3: against Clemson, and I had the whole thing, like, I

2719
02:09:39,400 --> 02:09:42,080
Speaker 3: cannot believe that they're going to win this game, shooting

2720
02:09:42,120 --> 02:09:45,040
Speaker 3: free throws on these calls down the stretch. But part

2721
02:09:45,040 --> 02:09:47,600
Speaker 3: of it is because the disdain for Duke not only

2722
02:09:47,640 --> 02:09:50,160
Speaker 3: is the natural robbery, but for so many years, you've

2723
02:09:50,160 --> 02:09:52,680
Speaker 3: seen them win for so many years, it seems like

2724
02:09:52,720 --> 02:09:55,680
Speaker 3: they just have the advantage, whether it's their own talent

2725
02:09:56,240 --> 02:09:59,960
Speaker 3: or like referee seeming to favor them and their style

2726
02:10:00,200 --> 02:10:03,080
Speaker 3: playing giving them these fifty to fifty calls. That's part

2727
02:10:03,160 --> 02:10:05,320
Speaker 3: of it, but that's part of why you tune in

2728
02:10:05,360 --> 02:10:07,360
Speaker 3: and watch it. And the forty nine ers definitely have

2729
02:10:07,520 --> 02:10:10,480
Speaker 3: that feel. They definitely bring back some of those images

2730
02:10:10,880 --> 02:10:14,120
Speaker 3: from the look the eighties and nineties when they were

2731
02:10:14,280 --> 02:10:16,200
Speaker 3: one of the top teams and they dominated at a

2732
02:10:16,240 --> 02:10:19,080
Speaker 3: high level. So brock Ferdy gets all of that. He

2733
02:10:19,200 --> 02:10:21,720
Speaker 3: catches the strays for people to hate the Niners, but

2734
02:10:21,800 --> 02:10:24,680
Speaker 3: he also catches maybe some of the extra love and

2735
02:10:24,720 --> 02:10:28,560
Speaker 3: boosts because people see him as the next coming of

2736
02:10:28,600 --> 02:10:31,040
Speaker 3: the great quarterbacks that have been there and Joe Montana

2737
02:10:31,040 --> 02:10:31,640
Speaker 3: and Steve Young.

2738
02:10:31,800 --> 02:10:34,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny. You were echoing a little of Steve

2739
02:10:34,880 --> 02:10:38,280
Speaker 4: Kerr with your commentary on the free throws for Duke

2740
02:10:38,360 --> 02:10:42,600
Speaker 4: and Clemson. You know, Steve Kerr pointing out the forty

2741
02:10:42,680 --> 02:10:46,280
Speaker 4: three to sixteen disparity in that Lakers win over the

2742
02:10:46,280 --> 02:10:49,280
Speaker 4: Warriors yesterday. And because I need to pull it back

2743
02:10:49,320 --> 02:10:51,160
Speaker 4: to the Royal Rumble, you know, it was down there

2744
02:10:51,200 --> 02:10:55,200
Speaker 4: in Florida. They played it at Tropicana Field to over

2745
02:10:55,320 --> 02:10:59,280
Speaker 4: forty thousand in attendance, and you had a hul Cogan

2746
02:10:59,320 --> 02:11:04,040
Speaker 4: because he's mister Clearwater, mister Saint Pete whatever. He opened

2747
02:11:04,040 --> 02:11:05,280
Speaker 4: the show and there were a lot of rumors that

2748
02:11:05,320 --> 02:11:07,680
Speaker 4: he might show up as part of the rumble. But

2749
02:11:08,640 --> 02:11:10,720
Speaker 4: it was funny because Steph Curry leaving the court, he

2750
02:11:10,720 --> 02:11:13,320
Speaker 4: actually did the Hogan thing and started ripping away his jersey.

2751
02:11:14,160 --> 02:11:16,440
Speaker 4: Like the Hulks are always toward the T shirt. It's

2752
02:11:16,480 --> 02:11:18,840
Speaker 4: like he's walking back, he's chewing on the mouthpiece, and

2753
02:11:18,880 --> 02:11:22,160
Speaker 4: he goes brother and starts ripping that warrior's jersey. That's

2754
02:11:22,160 --> 02:11:24,200
Speaker 4: the one. I think, that's the gamer I want of

2755
02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:24,800
Speaker 4: all time.

2756
02:11:25,320 --> 02:11:28,320
Speaker 3: Do you think he already had some pre design cuts

2757
02:11:28,320 --> 02:11:30,560
Speaker 3: in there to make it easier to or do you

2758
02:11:30,600 --> 02:11:33,760
Speaker 3: think that tip that Steph Curry just absolutely just he

2759
02:11:33,800 --> 02:11:35,920
Speaker 3: was strong enough, his grip strength was strong enough to

2760
02:11:35,960 --> 02:11:37,680
Speaker 3: he could just pull it apart at the seams.

2761
02:11:37,760 --> 02:11:41,080
Speaker 4: Since we're on a Superhero hour, I want to hope

2762
02:11:41,080 --> 02:11:43,440
Speaker 4: that the latter is true there, Bucky. I want to

2763
02:11:43,480 --> 02:11:46,640
Speaker 4: hope that it was his super strength and the adrenaline

2764
02:11:46,680 --> 02:11:50,160
Speaker 4: of that loss and the frustrations of a season gone

2765
02:11:50,240 --> 02:11:54,800
Speaker 4: awry that would lead him to such superhuman kind of capabilities.

2766
02:11:54,880 --> 02:11:57,200
Speaker 4: But I think your former point of there was probably

2767
02:11:57,240 --> 02:11:59,040
Speaker 4: a pre cut in there.

2768
02:12:00,080 --> 02:12:02,360
Speaker 1: Pertly perfectly perforated.

2769
02:12:02,520 --> 02:12:04,600
Speaker 3: A perforated's here somewhere in there where he's like, hey,

2770
02:12:04,640 --> 02:12:07,560
Speaker 3: if I just go to disport below the neckline, I

2771
02:12:07,600 --> 02:12:09,600
Speaker 3: can I can get it off.

2772
02:12:09,680 --> 02:12:11,480
Speaker 4: And in the back you started hearing I am a

2773
02:12:11,520 --> 02:12:16,880
Speaker 4: real American when it comes crash, so all that fun

2774
02:12:16,960 --> 02:12:19,760
Speaker 4: flows through. But yeah, I think with Perty it's just funny, right,

2775
02:12:19,800 --> 02:12:22,520
Speaker 4: because even in that three game losing streak, remember he

2776
02:12:22,600 --> 02:12:25,840
Speaker 4: made a a They had a tremendous drive to put

2777
02:12:25,840 --> 02:12:28,440
Speaker 4: them in position for what should have been a chip

2778
02:12:28,440 --> 02:12:31,440
Speaker 4: shot for Moody and he missed it. And I think

2779
02:12:31,520 --> 02:12:34,280
Speaker 4: that's one of the big question marks along the way,

2780
02:12:35,000 --> 02:12:37,720
Speaker 4: and maybe it's answered a little bit here, you know,

2781
02:12:37,760 --> 02:12:41,080
Speaker 4: at least on the AFC side, is that, Look, we

2782
02:12:41,080 --> 02:12:44,040
Speaker 4: we expect tight games, right, even if it's we're looking

2783
02:12:44,080 --> 02:12:46,960
Speaker 4: at a point spread sitting around seven, and I know

2784
02:12:47,040 --> 02:12:50,960
Speaker 4: the Ravens Chiefs had ballooned out to four and a half,

2785
02:12:51,000 --> 02:12:53,760
Speaker 4: which meant more and more money was coming in on

2786
02:12:53,800 --> 02:12:57,560
Speaker 4: the Ravens because it started at four. But you're looking

2787
02:12:57,600 --> 02:13:02,000
Speaker 4: at trying to find it advantages here, like you've got

2788
02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:05,440
Speaker 4: the veteran kickers on the AFC side and on the

2789
02:13:05,560 --> 02:13:10,400
Speaker 4: NFC you're kind of shrugging, going right, let's see right,

2790
02:13:10,440 --> 02:13:13,760
Speaker 4: you don't have that. All right, Hey, let's trot out Butker, Okay,

2791
02:13:14,040 --> 02:13:16,640
Speaker 4: let's trot out Tucker. All right, Moody, go get it.

2792
02:13:16,680 --> 02:13:21,080
Speaker 4: I mean, we saw what happened with Andrews Carlson last week. Yeah, right,

2793
02:13:21,160 --> 02:13:24,120
Speaker 4: makeable field. But we saw what happened with Bass more

2794
02:13:24,120 --> 02:13:27,880
Speaker 4: of a veteran and really just a terrible effort all

2795
02:13:27,920 --> 02:13:31,280
Speaker 4: around there in terms of pushing it wide right and

2796
02:13:31,360 --> 02:13:35,120
Speaker 4: giving the layup call I mean on the spot with it,

2797
02:13:35,640 --> 02:13:39,520
Speaker 4: but certainly there for you because like the kicking game matters,

2798
02:13:39,800 --> 02:13:41,880
Speaker 4: and it's one of those like Robbie Gold went a

2799
02:13:41,880 --> 02:13:44,080
Speaker 4: full year with nobody giving him a call. I get

2800
02:13:44,120 --> 02:13:48,760
Speaker 4: he's expensive at all, But given the the gravity of

2801
02:13:48,800 --> 02:13:52,400
Speaker 4: a lot of these circumstances for teams and where that's

2802
02:13:52,440 --> 02:13:56,040
Speaker 4: the margin, I still am always kind of scratching my

2803
02:13:56,080 --> 02:13:58,240
Speaker 4: head when we go to go to these big games

2804
02:13:58,240 --> 02:13:58,879
Speaker 4: with rookies.

2805
02:14:00,720 --> 02:14:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, we talk about the kicking game. We talk

2806
02:14:04,520 --> 02:14:06,840
Speaker 3: about kickers, and everyone hates kickers until you need them

2807
02:14:06,880 --> 02:14:07,880
Speaker 3: to make a big kick.

2808
02:14:10,080 --> 02:14:12,920
Speaker 1: Look at something to watch. And it's not only just the.

2809
02:14:12,920 --> 02:14:18,320
Speaker 3: Kick the field goal attempts. It's the pats because they

2810
02:14:18,360 --> 02:14:20,440
Speaker 3: moved the pat back, which is funny. I never would

2811
02:14:20,440 --> 02:14:22,120
Speaker 3: have thought that moving it back to the fifteen yard

2812
02:14:22,120 --> 02:14:23,920
Speaker 3: I would have such an impact on the game, but

2813
02:14:24,440 --> 02:14:26,720
Speaker 3: it has, you know, and it's made it more sight

2814
02:14:26,760 --> 02:14:31,440
Speaker 3: and it's also made two point conversions a thing. Look,

2815
02:14:31,480 --> 02:14:34,240
Speaker 3: the kicking game will matter. Someone is going to make

2816
02:14:34,240 --> 02:14:37,280
Speaker 3: a play in the kicking game that ultimately tilts the

2817
02:14:37,920 --> 02:14:40,360
Speaker 3: game in their team's direction.

2818
02:14:40,040 --> 02:14:42,120
Speaker 1: And I can't wait to see it.

2819
02:14:42,160 --> 02:14:46,640
Speaker 3: Man. I love these games because these games are not

2820
02:14:46,840 --> 02:14:49,280
Speaker 3: so much about one team winning, but it's the team

2821
02:14:49,360 --> 02:14:51,760
Speaker 3: that is able to not lose the game, the team

2822
02:14:51,800 --> 02:14:55,080
Speaker 3: that can avoid the egregious era, the mistake that really

2823
02:14:55,200 --> 02:14:58,560
Speaker 3: costs and flips the field or gives the team an

2824
02:14:58,600 --> 02:15:01,360
Speaker 3: easy seven points. Those are the teams to end up

2825
02:15:01,400 --> 02:15:03,160
Speaker 3: winning and win at the highest level in these high

2826
02:15:03,160 --> 02:15:03,960
Speaker 3: pressure moments.

2827
02:15:04,520 --> 02:15:08,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, just chaos potential. They're all around, So everybody gets

2828
02:15:08,600 --> 02:15:11,760
Speaker 4: your vitriol out. But certainly Brock perty a guy that

2829
02:15:12,280 --> 02:15:14,200
Speaker 4: even if he wins, he's still got to go win

2830
02:15:14,240 --> 02:15:16,960
Speaker 4: one more. I think we could stipulate to that, like,

2831
02:15:17,000 --> 02:15:18,800
Speaker 4: even if he beats the Lions, gonna be like, all right,

2832
02:15:19,600 --> 02:15:22,720
Speaker 4: he was carried by x YZ to this place that

2833
02:15:22,920 --> 02:15:25,080
Speaker 4: unless they walk off with the super Bowl, and even

2834
02:15:25,120 --> 02:15:27,440
Speaker 4: then it's still going to be a supporting cast, at

2835
02:15:27,520 --> 02:15:32,080
Speaker 4: least for some members of our collective national media and

2836
02:15:32,120 --> 02:15:35,640
Speaker 4: the dissonance that rolls from there. We're here in the

2837
02:15:35,840 --> 02:15:38,520
Speaker 4: tire rack dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios, Mike Carman

2838
02:15:38,560 --> 02:15:41,160
Speaker 4: alongside Bucky Brooks. I want to stay with that Detroit

2839
02:15:41,200 --> 02:15:44,360
Speaker 4: San Francisco game coming up, because there's one part of

2840
02:15:44,600 --> 02:15:47,560
Speaker 4: the San Francisco attack that's got me a little bit

2841
02:15:47,680 --> 02:15:50,280
Speaker 4: nervous while to see if Bucky can allay those fears

2842
02:15:50,520 --> 02:15:52,680
Speaker 4: or give me reason for you know, give me reason

2843
02:15:52,720 --> 02:15:56,240
Speaker 4: for hope, or does he confirm it and maybe get

2844
02:15:56,240 --> 02:15:59,920
Speaker 4: the flaming dumpster fire going in conjunction with my thought

2845
02:16:00,080 --> 02:16:01,960
Speaker 4: line of thought, we'll do that coming up next here

2846
02:16:02,160 --> 02:16:06,040
Speaker 4: on Fox Sports Radio. Hey, welcome back in. We're live

2847
02:16:06,080 --> 02:16:11,240
Speaker 4: from Thetirac dot Com Fox Sports Radio studios. Almost hit

2848
02:16:11,280 --> 02:16:16,560
Speaker 4: the post, quanked it like taking a penalty kick and

2849
02:16:16,560 --> 02:16:19,480
Speaker 4: then hitting the crossbar and then the goalie thinks he

2850
02:16:19,520 --> 02:16:23,400
Speaker 4: did something. He's Bucky Brooks up by Carmen, Fox Sports Radio,

2851
02:16:23,480 --> 02:16:29,160
Speaker 4: Fox Football Sunday Championship Edition. Yeah, it's early here on

2852
02:16:29,240 --> 02:16:33,560
Speaker 4: the West Coast. I mentioned it earlier last hour. The

2853
02:16:33,640 --> 02:16:37,200
Speaker 4: horribaw billboards are everywhere and come in and buy tickets

2854
02:16:37,200 --> 02:16:41,280
Speaker 4: and watch this new look Chargers squad. But we go

2855
02:16:41,400 --> 02:16:44,600
Speaker 4: back into the NFC title game later on today. As

2856
02:16:44,600 --> 02:16:48,520
Speaker 4: I'm watching some video of Jared Goff throws and Jamier

2857
02:16:48,600 --> 02:16:51,320
Speaker 4: Gibbs running all over the place, and the one area

2858
02:16:51,320 --> 02:16:53,920
Speaker 4: of concern for me when you look at the forty

2859
02:16:54,000 --> 02:16:56,760
Speaker 4: nine ers and you know, big favorites at home and

2860
02:16:56,800 --> 02:16:59,440
Speaker 4: all of that, Bucky, is are they going to get

2861
02:16:59,440 --> 02:17:02,320
Speaker 4: production of that defensive line. For all the names for

2862
02:17:02,520 --> 02:17:07,240
Speaker 4: the acquisition of Chase Young, etc. It's been fairly quiet

2863
02:17:07,320 --> 02:17:09,959
Speaker 4: up front. How do they get jump started against rag

2864
02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:14,840
Speaker 4: Now and this highly heralded Detroit offensive line.

2865
02:17:15,360 --> 02:17:17,840
Speaker 3: Well, the first thing is they gotta win on early downs.

2866
02:17:18,280 --> 02:17:21,200
Speaker 3: So the Achilles Heal of the forty nine ers of

2867
02:17:21,280 --> 02:17:23,280
Speaker 3: late has been their inability to stop the running game.

2868
02:17:23,320 --> 02:17:25,800
Speaker 3: We saw the Green Bay Packers have success running the football.

2869
02:17:25,840 --> 02:17:27,119
Speaker 3: It was one of the reasons why they were able

2870
02:17:27,200 --> 02:17:29,720
Speaker 3: to dominate the game even though they came up short.

2871
02:17:29,959 --> 02:17:32,600
Speaker 3: So for the Niners, first down is everything. They got

2872
02:17:32,600 --> 02:17:34,520
Speaker 3: to win on first down and force Jared Golf in

2873
02:17:34,560 --> 02:17:37,840
Speaker 3: the lines into obvious passing situations where then they can

2874
02:17:37,920 --> 02:17:40,440
Speaker 3: kick out, get into those wide nine alignments spinning. Their

2875
02:17:40,480 --> 02:17:44,080
Speaker 3: defensive ends are super wide coming in those track stances and.

2876
02:17:44,080 --> 02:17:45,520
Speaker 1: To get after Jared Golf.

2877
02:17:45,800 --> 02:17:50,640
Speaker 3: But look, it stands from their ability to stop the

2878
02:17:50,720 --> 02:17:53,040
Speaker 3: running game. If they don't stop the running game, it's

2879
02:17:53,040 --> 02:17:54,440
Speaker 3: gonna be a long day for the forty nine ers.

2880
02:17:54,480 --> 02:17:57,840
Speaker 3: And I'm saying this acknowledging that they are the better team,

2881
02:17:57,879 --> 02:18:00,480
Speaker 3: the more talented team. But if they cannot stopped the

2882
02:18:00,520 --> 02:18:02,600
Speaker 3: lines from running, the football is gonna be a problem for.

2883
02:18:02,920 --> 02:18:05,600
Speaker 4: Of course, living across the middle. Maybe the forty nine

2884
02:18:05,680 --> 02:18:09,320
Speaker 4: ers actually make a play against Saint Brown or Laporta

2885
02:18:09,840 --> 02:18:12,120
Speaker 4: over the middle. Where the last couple of rounds, it

2886
02:18:12,160 --> 02:18:15,960
Speaker 4: seems the defensive coordinators forgot about that part that Goff

2887
02:18:16,080 --> 02:18:19,400
Speaker 4: will eat you alive over the middle if he gets

2888
02:18:19,440 --> 02:18:23,320
Speaker 4: time to throw. So creativity on the defensive end certainly

2889
02:18:24,040 --> 02:18:28,680
Speaker 4: part of the equation. Later on, Deebo Samuel expected to

2890
02:18:28,760 --> 02:18:32,959
Speaker 4: go how much like last week? You know, Aaron Jones

2891
02:18:33,120 --> 02:18:36,840
Speaker 4: clearly a different guy. Whatever happened early in the season,

2892
02:18:37,240 --> 02:18:40,959
Speaker 4: whatever happened missing time, he came back like he was

2893
02:18:40,959 --> 02:18:43,520
Speaker 4: shot out of a cannon again, going back to our

2894
02:18:43,840 --> 02:18:47,520
Speaker 4: Marvel analogies and going back into the lab. You know

2895
02:18:47,520 --> 02:18:50,760
Speaker 4: everything special you came out of it and all of that.

2896
02:18:50,840 --> 02:18:53,040
Speaker 4: I have no idea what kind of treatments he got

2897
02:18:53,160 --> 02:18:56,000
Speaker 4: or what they schemed up. But suddenly he's running like

2898
02:18:56,000 --> 02:18:59,480
Speaker 4: a man possessed. But Deebo Samuel and what he means

2899
02:18:59,520 --> 02:19:03,760
Speaker 4: to that? Sam Francisco offense last week with him a

2900
02:19:03,959 --> 02:19:09,439
Speaker 4: sidelined certainly we saw, you know, a much different complexion

2901
02:19:09,480 --> 02:19:13,080
Speaker 4: to this offense where you lose some of those specialty

2902
02:19:13,160 --> 02:19:17,120
Speaker 4: plays and what makes him so explosive. He says he's

2903
02:19:17,240 --> 02:19:19,800
Speaker 4: ready to go, and certainly for a championship game, you

2904
02:19:19,840 --> 02:19:22,680
Speaker 4: would expect nothing else Bucky. But how do you get

2905
02:19:22,720 --> 02:19:24,760
Speaker 4: the most out of him while making sure that he's

2906
02:19:24,760 --> 02:19:26,680
Speaker 4: still there when the final gun sounds.

2907
02:19:27,280 --> 02:19:29,520
Speaker 1: Look, I don't think you can think about it. You can't.

2908
02:19:29,920 --> 02:19:33,080
Speaker 3: You can't worry about Debo not being there at the end.

2909
02:19:33,120 --> 02:19:35,720
Speaker 3: You have to treat him like he's one hundred percent

2910
02:19:36,120 --> 02:19:38,720
Speaker 3: ready to play and available. That means he has to

2911
02:19:38,800 --> 02:19:40,640
Speaker 3: be in the backfield, he has to be split out wide,

2912
02:19:40,680 --> 02:19:42,160
Speaker 3: he has to be using a slide. You have to

2913
02:19:42,240 --> 02:19:44,640
Speaker 3: run the reverses and fake reverses and jet sweeps and

2914
02:19:44,680 --> 02:19:47,440
Speaker 3: all those things that are customary to the game plan.

2915
02:19:47,920 --> 02:19:51,039
Speaker 1: You have to have those things in there. That's it.

2916
02:19:51,640 --> 02:19:52,800
Speaker 1: If he's hurt.

2917
02:19:52,840 --> 02:19:56,400
Speaker 3: And you're trying to make them defend him while keeping

2918
02:19:56,400 --> 02:19:58,960
Speaker 3: them available as a decoy, well then some of that

2919
02:19:59,040 --> 02:20:01,640
Speaker 3: is just positioning their knowing he look here, but I'm

2920
02:20:01,680 --> 02:20:02,520
Speaker 3: going elsewhere.

2921
02:20:02,760 --> 02:20:04,720
Speaker 1: He just needs to be on the field and available.

2922
02:20:04,760 --> 02:20:06,959
Speaker 3: He has to make some plays though, because after a while,

2923
02:20:06,959 --> 02:20:08,320
Speaker 3: the line's a sniff out.

2924
02:20:08,480 --> 02:20:10,600
Speaker 1: Any type of strategy where they're like a man. They're

2925
02:20:10,600 --> 02:20:11,320
Speaker 1: not using him.

2926
02:20:11,520 --> 02:20:13,960
Speaker 3: He's not full goal, he's not a real threat, and

2927
02:20:14,000 --> 02:20:15,800
Speaker 3: they'll direct their attention elsewhere.

2928
02:20:16,120 --> 02:20:18,560
Speaker 4: Now for the Lions, looking for keys to the game,

2929
02:20:18,600 --> 02:20:23,240
Speaker 4: we talked about the run game obviously gives Montgomery Jared

2930
02:20:23,280 --> 02:20:25,800
Speaker 4: Goff a couple of weeks ago against the Rams nearly

2931
02:20:25,920 --> 02:20:30,440
Speaker 4: perfect but with pressure the Opers winning on first and

2932
02:20:30,480 --> 02:20:33,040
Speaker 4: second down. I mean, I guess that's it, right, getting

2933
02:20:33,400 --> 02:20:35,560
Speaker 4: being able to pin your ears back on him and

2934
02:20:35,879 --> 02:20:37,880
Speaker 4: seeing if he can't force the mistake, because they almost

2935
02:20:37,879 --> 02:20:41,920
Speaker 4: did last week. Unfortunately you had Dean drop it. If

2936
02:20:41,920 --> 02:20:46,039
Speaker 4: you're a Buccaneers fan, rolling rolling through from there. So

2937
02:20:46,680 --> 02:20:50,400
Speaker 4: you know, for the Lions on the defensive side, you

2938
02:20:50,440 --> 02:20:53,200
Speaker 4: know where where's the key. Is it Aiden Hutchinson trying

2939
02:20:53,240 --> 02:20:56,039
Speaker 4: to get off and get free run, or is it

2940
02:20:56,320 --> 02:20:59,360
Speaker 4: you know, Aaron Glenn doing everything he can to help

2941
02:20:59,720 --> 02:21:01,160
Speaker 4: that defensive backfield.

2942
02:21:02,520 --> 02:21:04,680
Speaker 3: You got to help the defensive backfield, but more important

2943
02:21:04,680 --> 02:21:06,680
Speaker 3: than you got a GM the middle of the field.

2944
02:21:06,920 --> 02:21:09,800
Speaker 3: So the teams that have successfully defended the Niners have

2945
02:21:09,920 --> 02:21:12,279
Speaker 3: taken away the middle of the field.

2946
02:21:12,440 --> 02:21:12,800
Speaker 1: You saw.

2947
02:21:12,800 --> 02:21:14,720
Speaker 3: And I had a conversation with a coach who has

2948
02:21:14,720 --> 02:21:17,280
Speaker 3: played against the Niners several times, and he talked about

2949
02:21:17,320 --> 02:21:19,600
Speaker 3: last week when you watched the Green Bay package and

2950
02:21:19,600 --> 02:21:21,920
Speaker 3: how they had success defending them and how they had

2951
02:21:21,959 --> 02:21:24,960
Speaker 3: the near dropped interceptions. You notice all those interceptions were

2952
02:21:24,959 --> 02:21:25,800
Speaker 3: inside the numbers.

2953
02:21:25,879 --> 02:21:26,119
Speaker 4: Yep.

2954
02:21:26,200 --> 02:21:29,360
Speaker 3: The Niners want to run ninety five percent of their

2955
02:21:29,440 --> 02:21:32,040
Speaker 3: routes breaking inside.

2956
02:21:31,520 --> 02:21:32,199
Speaker 1: Of the numbers.

2957
02:21:32,640 --> 02:21:36,000
Speaker 3: So as a defense, you have to sit inside and

2958
02:21:36,080 --> 02:21:38,560
Speaker 3: you have to go. I mean it's almost like a

2959
02:21:38,600 --> 02:21:42,440
Speaker 3: prolific base stealer still in second. I mean, when that

2960
02:21:42,480 --> 02:21:44,680
Speaker 3: person sits down, you got to pull the trigger. They

2961
02:21:44,720 --> 02:21:46,600
Speaker 3: have to go for it. They have to squat in

2962
02:21:46,640 --> 02:21:48,680
Speaker 3: the middle of the field. Force brought pridy to throw

2963
02:21:48,720 --> 02:21:51,800
Speaker 3: the ball outside the numbers. They don't have that really

2964
02:21:51,840 --> 02:21:53,920
Speaker 3: in their passing game. But you have to be aware

2965
02:21:54,000 --> 02:21:57,920
Speaker 3: everything is coming and breaking crossing routes at short, intermediate,

2966
02:21:58,000 --> 02:22:00,000
Speaker 3: and deep depth. You just got to make sure you

2967
02:22:00,200 --> 02:22:01,800
Speaker 3: take care of the middle of forest. Brock prey to

2968
02:22:01,800 --> 02:22:02,480
Speaker 3: throw it outside.

2969
02:22:02,600 --> 02:22:04,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was certainly the blueprint. Go back to that

2970
02:22:04,760 --> 02:22:09,280
Speaker 4: debacle against the Ravens. Everything was tipballs on that didn't

2971
02:22:09,360 --> 02:22:13,000
Speaker 4: land harmlessly because you know party pretty Going back to

2972
02:22:13,040 --> 02:22:16,680
Speaker 4: the earlier conversation, Bucky, he seems to get more acknowledgment

2973
02:22:16,800 --> 02:22:20,160
Speaker 4: for near misses than almost any quarterback I can remember.

2974
02:22:21,160 --> 02:22:24,880
Speaker 4: You know what. He was almost intercepted three times, like yeah,

2975
02:22:24,920 --> 02:22:28,000
Speaker 4: and today was almost Today you caught Captain Jack Sparrow.

2976
02:22:29,560 --> 02:22:30,040
Speaker 4: You didn't.

2977
02:22:31,920 --> 02:22:34,840
Speaker 1: I mean, there's something to that. Yeah, The near.

2978
02:22:34,680 --> 02:22:38,280
Speaker 3: Misses are there. It has to be a part of

2979
02:22:38,320 --> 02:22:41,680
Speaker 3: the equation. Man, make them throw it outside. This game

2980
02:22:41,760 --> 02:22:45,039
Speaker 3: is about forcing the opponent to play left handed, and

2981
02:22:45,120 --> 02:22:47,520
Speaker 3: you have to do what if you can to make

2982
02:22:47,560 --> 02:22:50,000
Speaker 3: them play to their weakness. So for the Niners, playing

2983
02:22:50,040 --> 02:22:52,600
Speaker 3: to the weakness would be make them throw the ball

2984
02:22:52,640 --> 02:22:55,760
Speaker 3: outside the numbers. Don't let them have it in there.

2985
02:22:54,640 --> 02:22:56,600
Speaker 1: There there's sweet.

2986

3030
02:25:15,959 --> 02:25:21,119
Speaker 10: pipeline for Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinators Kellen Moore? But before

3031
02:25:21,200 --> 02:25:24,959
Speaker 10: that it was Shane Steichen, and before that it was

3032
02:25:25,040 --> 02:25:25,720
Speaker 10: Frank Reich.

3033
02:25:25,800 --> 02:25:28,560
Speaker 2: It was a crazy pipeline. And that's one of the

3034
02:25:28,600 --> 02:25:29,440
Speaker 2: things we're talking about.

3035

Speaker 9: Thanks Isaac. He's getting ready for another season of Angels City.

3061
02:26:54,120 --> 02:26:57,720
Speaker 9: You've got the chargers and all the excitement as we

Speaker 9: Bucky Brooks where you find Bucky. Find me over at

3065
02:27:06,480 --> 02:27:08,680
Speaker 9: Swollen Dome. As a sit here in the Fox Sports

3066
02:27:08,720 --> 02:27:12,200
Speaker 9: Radio studios here Southern California, We're starting to see some

3067
02:27:12,240 --> 02:27:15,320
Speaker 9: of the pregame shows rolling. I've got some racing on.

3068
02:27:15,400 --> 02:27:18,800
Speaker 9: I've already seen a soccer match. I've got some fishing competitions.

3069
02:27:18,840 --> 02:27:20,440
Speaker 9: I might bet the guy in the back he looks

3070
02:27:20,440 --> 02:27:22,840
Speaker 9: a little hungrier, but the Bucky.

3071
02:27:22,879 --> 02:27:27,080
Speaker 4: I also just saw the Ray Lewis statue out there

3072
02:27:27,080 --> 02:27:31,840
Speaker 4: in Baltimore. Front and center. Lamar Jackson much made about

3073
02:27:31,879 --> 02:27:35,519
Speaker 4: his playoff history. He gets one of his favorite weapons

3074
02:27:35,560 --> 02:27:39,400
Speaker 4: back in Mark Andrews. But I go back to a

3075
02:27:39,440 --> 02:27:43,280
Speaker 4: conversation we had last week and again bringing in the

3076
02:27:43,360 --> 02:27:46,600
Speaker 4: full wrestling parlance, the old to beat be the man,

3077
02:27:46,640 --> 02:27:49,959
Speaker 4: you gotta beat the man thing. Why am I uneasy

3078
02:27:50,040 --> 02:27:52,480
Speaker 4: making any pick in this game because of the presence

3079
02:27:52,480 --> 02:27:56,120
Speaker 4: of Mahomes, Reid and those Kansas City Chiefs, particularly if

3080
02:27:56,120 --> 02:27:59,760
Speaker 4: Travis Kelcey, whatever he's got left, he's sure left it

3081
02:27:59,800 --> 02:28:01,040
Speaker 4: on the field last week.

3082
02:28:02,360 --> 02:28:02,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

3083
02:28:02,640 --> 02:28:05,680
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I think that's the big thing. Because

3084
02:28:05,680 --> 02:28:09,400
Speaker 3: they're a defending champ. You know, you want to give

3085
02:28:09,440 --> 02:28:12,400
Speaker 3: them their proper due when it comes to respect. You

3086
02:28:12,440 --> 02:28:16,680
Speaker 3: want to make sure that everyone appreciates what they've done

3087
02:28:16,760 --> 02:28:20,560
Speaker 3: for so long. And everyone knows that we have seen

3088
02:28:20,800 --> 02:28:26,680
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes do this time and time again. And I'll

3089
02:28:26,680 --> 02:28:28,840
Speaker 3: say this man, he's going to the gunfight with a

3090
02:28:28,879 --> 02:28:31,600
Speaker 3: butter knife. He doesn't have the weapons to match up

3091
02:28:31,640 --> 02:28:33,760
Speaker 3: with the Baltimore Ravens. He doesn't have the same wide

3092
02:28:33,800 --> 02:28:36,080
Speaker 3: receiver corps, doesn't have the running game as that Pacheco.

3093
02:28:36,480 --> 02:28:39,160
Speaker 3: It's hurt so for him to pull this off, he's

3094
02:28:39,200 --> 02:28:42,119
Speaker 3: gonna have to be look Clint Eastwood in the old

3095
02:28:42,160 --> 02:28:45,119
Speaker 3: Western movie having to shoot up everybody in the saloon.

3096
02:28:45,400 --> 02:28:47,720
Speaker 3: He's going to have to do he's going to have

3097
02:28:47,760 --> 02:28:50,480
Speaker 3: to do some some mystical magical stuff to be able

3098
02:28:50,520 --> 02:28:51,000
Speaker 3: to pull this off.

3099
02:28:51,080 --> 02:28:52,600
Speaker 4: Well, let me ask you this though. As I was

3100
02:28:52,680 --> 02:28:55,320
Speaker 4: driving in, I heard you and Andy and you were

3101
02:28:55,320 --> 02:28:57,760
Speaker 4: talking about, Hey, if we did this the old playground

3102
02:28:57,760 --> 02:29:00,720
Speaker 4: pickup game, you know it's been done on the Simpsons,

3103
02:29:00,760 --> 02:29:03,680
Speaker 4: and all the baseball players walk up on the sandlot,

3104
02:29:03,840 --> 02:29:07,040
Speaker 4: I'll take Wade Boggs, I'll take jose Canseco. I've got

3105
02:29:07,040 --> 02:29:10,879
Speaker 4: Millhouse and I've got Ralph that kind of thing. But

3106
02:29:11,000 --> 02:29:13,840
Speaker 4: if we were to going, you know, Mahomes on one

3107
02:29:13,879 --> 02:29:17,720
Speaker 4: side and Lamar and they're the captains. The first two

3108
02:29:17,760 --> 02:29:20,560
Speaker 4: picks at like wide receiver tight end are coming off

3109
02:29:20,600 --> 02:29:26,440
Speaker 4: Kansas City, though, aren't they. You're taking Rice over Flowers.

3110
02:29:26,520 --> 02:29:27,320
Speaker 4: You're taking Rice.

3111
02:29:27,560 --> 02:29:29,519
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I'm not taking I'm taking Flowers.

3112
02:29:29,240 --> 02:29:30,720
Speaker 4: Over Are you taking Flowers over Rice?

3113
02:29:31,040 --> 02:29:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm taking Flowers over Rice? Rice.

3114
02:29:32,640 --> 02:29:34,600
Speaker 3: Rice has too many dress I think Flowers is a

3115
02:29:34,680 --> 02:29:38,480
Speaker 3: much better player. Travis kelce Like, I respect Travis Kelcey

3116
02:29:38,520 --> 02:29:40,520
Speaker 3: in terms of what he has been. He hasn't been

3117
02:29:40,520 --> 02:29:42,840
Speaker 3: great this year. A lot of drops from that wide

3118
02:29:42,879 --> 02:29:45,160
Speaker 3: receiver corps. I would say you can take him one

3119
02:29:45,800 --> 02:29:47,080
Speaker 3: but then I would take.

3120
02:29:47,080 --> 02:29:48,800
Speaker 4: You'll take Flowers over him.

3121
02:29:49,200 --> 02:29:50,640
Speaker 1: I would take Flowers over Rice.

3122
02:29:51,200 --> 02:29:54,600
Speaker 3: And then I think you're kind of pushing because and

3123
02:29:54,840 --> 02:29:58,000
Speaker 3: maybe Rice does deserve the bump over the reputation of

3124
02:29:58,120 --> 02:30:01,760
Speaker 3: OBJ because the reputation is better than what the reality

3125
02:30:01,840 --> 02:30:05,120
Speaker 3: has suggested. But maybe it's a bit of a maybe

3126
02:30:05,160 --> 02:30:07,240
Speaker 3: it's a bit of a push there wide receiver.

3127
02:30:07,480 --> 02:30:09,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was just kind of thinking the second half

3128
02:30:09,480 --> 02:30:11,920
Speaker 4: for she Rice, that's come on. Look, forty four drops

3129
02:30:11,920 --> 02:30:15,879
Speaker 4: as a unit certainly problematic, and Kelsey's had his share

3130
02:30:15,920 --> 02:30:20,200
Speaker 4: of those. But playoff, Kelsey seems to be a different guy.

3131
02:30:20,480 --> 02:30:23,320
Speaker 3: He has been a different guy, and he played really

3132
02:30:23,320 --> 02:30:25,680
Speaker 3: well against the Buffalo Bills. The Buffalo Bills dropped coverage,

3133
02:30:25,720 --> 02:30:28,119
Speaker 3: but he played really well against him. And that bowls

3134
02:30:28,120 --> 02:30:33,520
Speaker 3: well for the chemistry between the quarterback and the tight end,

3135
02:30:33,560 --> 02:30:36,400
Speaker 3: and that's gonna be necessary. I would say this, Travis

3136
02:30:36,520 --> 02:30:38,640
Speaker 3: Kelce is going to have to turn back the clock

3137
02:30:39,240 --> 02:30:41,920
Speaker 3: today for this team to get a win. He needs

3138
02:30:41,959 --> 02:30:46,080
Speaker 3: to be close to the century mark for this game

3139
02:30:46,120 --> 02:30:48,160
Speaker 3: to be going the way they need it because I

3140
02:30:48,240 --> 02:30:50,640
Speaker 3: look Pacheco, He's not gonna be able to go if

3141
02:30:50,640 --> 02:30:53,000
Speaker 3: he has that little GUMPI ankle. They're gonna make sure

3142
02:30:53,000 --> 02:30:55,160
Speaker 3: that they stuff to run. They want Pat Mahomes to

3143
02:30:55,200 --> 02:30:58,160
Speaker 3: throw it. I believe the Ravens feel like they can

3144
02:30:58,160 --> 02:31:01,560
Speaker 3: cover their whiteoutse and so that may be the difference,

3145
02:31:01,560 --> 02:31:03,480
Speaker 3: but Kanzay probably feels the same way about being able

3146
02:31:03,480 --> 02:31:04,080
Speaker 3: to cover to Ravens.

3147
02:31:04,160 --> 02:31:05,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna guess we're not seeing a lot of

3148
02:31:05,720 --> 02:31:09,959
Speaker 4: Nicole Hartman Hardman and uh big possessions again.

3149
02:31:10,959 --> 02:31:13,199
Speaker 3: Nah, I think I think that was done. I think look,

3150
02:31:13,480 --> 02:31:15,680
Speaker 3: I think all that stuff is cute and.

3151
02:31:15,600 --> 02:31:21,080
Speaker 1: It looks great when it works. But after he fumbled twice, Yeah,

3152
02:31:21,200 --> 02:31:22,200
Speaker 1: I don't know.

3153
02:31:22,320 --> 02:31:24,720
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know if he uh has tough

3154
02:31:24,800 --> 02:31:28,080
Speaker 3: to uh yeah, I don't know if you could get

3155
02:31:28,080 --> 02:31:28,600
Speaker 3: another chance.

3156
02:31:28,680 --> 02:31:33,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, Cadarius Tony, everybody making those jokes across the interwebs.

3157
02:31:33,200 --> 02:31:33,560
Speaker 4: We will.

3158
02:31:33,640 --> 02:31:36,640
Speaker 1: So here's the thing about Kadarius Tony. I was reading

3159
02:31:37,000 --> 02:31:38,200
Speaker 1: maybe had the birth of his daughter.

3160
02:31:38,520 --> 02:31:39,959
Speaker 4: He did add the birth of a kid, so he's

3161
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:43,400
Speaker 4: had an injury. But then they added the personal reasons,

3162
02:31:43,400 --> 02:31:45,360
Speaker 4: and the personal reasons was a birth of a child.

3163
02:31:46,120 --> 02:31:47,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll see.

3164
02:31:47,720 --> 02:31:50,039
Speaker 4: So yeah, that so it's it's trying to find that

3165
02:31:50,160 --> 02:31:53,520
Speaker 4: secondary option. But it's one of those games that you know,

3166
02:31:53,560 --> 02:31:56,720
Speaker 4: we went to pick it on Friday and look, not

3167
02:31:56,879 --> 02:32:01,120
Speaker 4: often that you're stumbling around and finding himnd Like, you

3168
02:32:01,120 --> 02:32:03,200
Speaker 4: can see this game going either way, because I don't

3169
02:32:03,200 --> 02:32:06,800
Speaker 4: bet against Malmes generally as much as I love what

3170
02:32:06,879 --> 02:32:09,920
Speaker 4: the Ravens have built on both sides of the ball. Right,

3171
02:32:10,200 --> 02:32:14,120
Speaker 4: you know, enough smash mouth and then Lamar's a guy again.

3172
02:32:14,320 --> 02:32:18,360
Speaker 4: You know, maybe before the Rock Purty conversation. He was

3173
02:32:18,400 --> 02:32:21,080
Speaker 4: there and everybody's just got a pin in it, waiting

3174
02:32:21,120 --> 02:32:24,279
Speaker 4: to add their next block of text on their WordPress

3175
02:32:24,360 --> 02:32:27,440
Speaker 4: document about how he can't win a big game or

3176
02:32:27,440 --> 02:32:30,400
Speaker 4: make a throw or whatever, as if they didn't watch

3177
02:32:30,440 --> 02:32:32,840
Speaker 4: it down of the evolution of the guy this year.

3178
02:32:34,440 --> 02:32:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny how they go sometimes, you know.

3179
02:32:38,000 --> 02:32:40,320
Speaker 4: Well, we watch, we like what we got, and we've

3180
02:32:40,360 --> 02:32:42,240
Speaker 4: got a hold on to narratives. Bucky. You know how

3181
02:32:42,280 --> 02:32:45,480
Speaker 4: that works here in media, no matter how many data

3182
02:32:45,520 --> 02:32:48,520
Speaker 4: points you get to the contrary. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm

Speaker 4: Two places still left to make hires. We talked a

3186
02:32:59,160 --> 02:33:02,440
Speaker 4: lot about Atlanta earlier. But how about my guy David Tepper.

3187

Speaker 4: He got his man as well as some help in

3188

3210
02:34:25,720 --> 02:34:30,280
Speaker 4: and front office opportunities for Carolina and the job nobody wanted,

3211
02:34:31,440 --> 02:34:34,520
Speaker 4: or they told me nobody wanted. My argument was it

3212
02:34:34,560 --> 02:34:38,840
Speaker 4: was the great job. But canallis parlaying the reclamation project

3213
02:34:38,879 --> 02:34:41,199
Speaker 4: that was Baker Mayfield into a head coaching job.

3214
02:34:42,240 --> 02:34:44,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, kind of amazing that it's happened like that. But

3215
02:34:45,800 --> 02:34:49,400
Speaker 3: what we're seeing is synergy and connectivity is everything. And

3216
02:34:49,720 --> 02:34:54,480
Speaker 3: the Panthers paired Dan Morgan with one of the coaches

3217
02:34:54,520 --> 02:34:57,879
Speaker 3: that he was familiar with, Dave Canalis from Seattle, and

3218
02:34:57,959 --> 02:34:59,800
Speaker 3: now they hope they can kind of get it together.

3219
02:35:00,000 --> 02:35:01,800
Speaker 3: And now it's working on the quarterback and the team,

3220
02:35:02,160 --> 02:35:05,039
Speaker 3: Dan Morgan making sure he upgrades the roster and does that.

3221
02:35:05,760 --> 02:35:10,640
Speaker 3: It's unique because Morgan was there under Scott Fitterer, and somehow,

3222
02:35:12,040 --> 02:35:16,480
Speaker 3: you know, Tepper was able to see pass whatever mistakes

3223
02:35:16,520 --> 02:35:20,680
Speaker 3: took place under Fitterer and decide and determine that Dan

3224
02:35:20,760 --> 02:35:23,920
Speaker 3: Morgan was the right man to get this fanchise over

3225
02:35:24,000 --> 02:35:27,640
Speaker 3: the top. Difficult job, tough situation, but look, I'm happy

3226
02:35:27,640 --> 02:35:29,000
Speaker 3: for Dan. Dan was there when I was with the

3227
02:35:29,000 --> 02:35:31,240
Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers as a scout, helped us go to Super

3228
02:35:31,240 --> 02:35:34,920
Speaker 3: Bowl thirty eight. Great player, all time, great dude. So

3229
02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:37,039
Speaker 3: we'll see if he gets an opportunity, if he has

3230
02:35:37,480 --> 02:35:39,440
Speaker 3: the wherewithal to turn this around.

3231
02:35:39,520 --> 02:35:42,080
Speaker 4: Now, I referenced the shirtless brother that, of course being

3232
02:35:42,200 --> 02:35:46,840
Speaker 4: Jason Kelsey. All sorts of run last week, and for

3233
02:35:46,920 --> 02:35:50,760
Speaker 4: folks trying to bring out their stopwatches, go and compare

3234
02:35:51,600 --> 02:35:57,320
Speaker 4: how they display any of these friends, family, owners, whatever,

3235
02:35:57,360 --> 02:36:00,119
Speaker 4: and decide where you like that. You could build a

3236
02:36:00,160 --> 02:36:04,959
Speaker 4: giant chart of visuals for you along the way I did,

3237
02:36:05,000 --> 02:36:09,320
Speaker 4: like Kelsey's dad. Though, in all the retirement talk, Bucky's

3238
02:36:09,320 --> 02:36:12,680
Speaker 4: saying until he starts losing weight, I'm not buying it.

3239
02:36:13,640 --> 02:36:17,120
Speaker 1: M I can see that. I mean, I can see that,

3240
02:36:17,160 --> 02:36:17,640
Speaker 1: like he did.

3241
02:36:17,760 --> 02:36:20,199
Speaker 3: He looks like he's having a blast though, So either

3242
02:36:20,240 --> 02:36:23,960
Speaker 3: he is retired or he's just fully unwinding for the

3243
02:36:24,400 --> 02:36:27,280
Speaker 3: off season, going to Buffalo Bill's games and just kind

3244
02:36:27,280 --> 02:36:29,840
Speaker 3: of hanging out and you know, doing all the stuff

3245
02:36:29,879 --> 02:36:31,760
Speaker 3: that fans do.

3246
02:36:33,480 --> 02:36:35,760
Speaker 4: I mean, just the way that season ended. We talked

3247
02:36:35,760 --> 02:36:37,480
Speaker 4: about it a little bit earlier. Folks can get the

3248
02:36:37,520 --> 02:36:40,760
Speaker 4: podcast wherever you download your audio. Rate it, review it,

3249
02:36:41,400 --> 02:36:43,800
Speaker 4: give it five stars. I'll love you and walk coast

3250
02:36:43,840 --> 02:36:47,080
Speaker 4: to coast like I'm Forrest Gump at some point. But

3251
02:36:48,200 --> 02:36:51,160
Speaker 4: the way that season ended, that second half, and certainly

3252
02:36:51,200 --> 02:36:54,480
Speaker 4: the early exit, I gotta imagine, you know, hey, just

3253
02:36:54,760 --> 02:36:57,240
Speaker 4: get out of town for a few weeks has got

3254
02:36:57,240 --> 02:36:59,600
Speaker 4: to be the mo for most guys, especially the veteran

3255
02:36:59,640 --> 02:37:01,039
Speaker 4: players who've been to the mountain.

3256
02:37:03,080 --> 02:37:05,320
Speaker 3: I mean, some of that is, hey, man, let's let's go,

3257
02:37:05,400 --> 02:37:08,320
Speaker 3: let's get away, let's let's check out. Let's see if

3258
02:37:08,360 --> 02:37:11,320
Speaker 3: we can have some fun kind of relax and recharge

3259
02:37:11,360 --> 02:37:14,760
Speaker 3: and see if we can come back better. Look, we'll

3260
02:37:14,800 --> 02:37:18,200
Speaker 3: see if he does come back, But certainly no one

3261
02:37:18,280 --> 02:37:21,720
Speaker 3: is having a better begin or start today off season

3262
02:37:21,879 --> 02:37:22,520
Speaker 3: than Kelsey.

3263
02:37:22,600 --> 02:37:25,879
Speaker 4: What I found funny though, and you know, to bring

3264
02:37:25,920 --> 02:37:29,879
Speaker 4: it back, we talked about Sirianni and the situation of

3265
02:37:30,080 --> 02:37:34,240
Speaker 4: coordinators the end of Last Hour, but it seemed kind

3266
02:37:34,240 --> 02:37:36,520
Speaker 4: of curious to me that the only guys that really

3267
02:37:36,600 --> 02:37:39,880
Speaker 4: spoke up for him was one in battled aj Brown.

3268
02:37:39,920 --> 02:37:43,840
Speaker 4: Whatever that relationship is, but then Fletcher Cox and Jason Kelsey,

3269
02:37:43,879 --> 02:37:46,560
Speaker 4: two guys that are presumed to not be there in

3270
02:37:46,640 --> 02:37:50,920
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four. Whether that's the case or not, regardless,

3271
02:37:51,120 --> 02:37:53,720
Speaker 4: it just was curious when we had that week and

3272
02:37:53,720 --> 02:37:55,320
Speaker 4: a half. You don't normally go a week and a

3273
02:37:55,320 --> 02:37:57,840
Speaker 4: half before you meet with the media at the end

3274
02:37:57,879 --> 02:37:59,840
Speaker 4: of the season to kind of put a bow on things.

3275
02:38:00,640 --> 02:38:02,600
Speaker 4: Very curious to no No.

3276
02:38:03,040 --> 02:38:05,000
Speaker 3: I think it was a situation where they were trying

3277
02:38:05,040 --> 02:38:06,920
Speaker 3: to figure it all out. Nick Sirianna had to come

3278
02:38:07,000 --> 02:38:09,720
Speaker 3: up with a plan to ownership to explain away how

3279
02:38:09,720 --> 02:38:11,000
Speaker 3: this team fell apart at.

3280
02:38:10,879 --> 02:38:11,600
Speaker 1: The end of the year.

3281
02:38:12,160 --> 02:38:16,039
Speaker 3: I will say, Man, a lot of change and a

3282
02:38:16,040 --> 02:38:19,160
Speaker 3: lot of change and coordinators, a lot of just revolving doors.

3283
02:38:19,160 --> 02:38:21,920
Speaker 3: Hard to have a level of success, man, when you

3284
02:38:22,000 --> 02:38:23,320
Speaker 3: have so many moving parts.

3285
02:38:24,280 --> 02:38:25,520
Speaker 1: We'll see if they can put it together.

3286
02:38:25,600 --> 02:38:27,520
Speaker 3: Vic Fangiol obviously is one of the best coaches that

3287
02:38:27,560 --> 02:38:30,200
Speaker 3: we've talked about in our game. Kellen Moore has had

3288
02:38:30,240 --> 02:38:33,480
Speaker 3: great moments during his time as a play caller, just

3289
02:38:33,520 --> 02:38:35,920
Speaker 3: piecing it together. Because the pressure on this team will

3290
02:38:35,959 --> 02:38:38,600
Speaker 3: be immense and Nick Sirianna getting the mandate to be

3291
02:38:38,680 --> 02:38:43,320
Speaker 3: the CEO type, can he become the CEO type where

3292
02:38:43,320 --> 02:38:46,480
Speaker 3: he's running around and managing the entire operation after being

3293
02:38:46,520 --> 02:38:47,879
Speaker 3: so heavily involved in offense.

3294
02:38:49,400 --> 02:38:51,039
Speaker 1: He just said, then done, We'll see if he can

3295
02:38:51,040 --> 02:38:51,480
Speaker 1: execute you.

3296
02:38:51,480 --> 02:38:54,120
Speaker 4: What's the curiosity because I kept waiting for Bill Belichick

3297
02:38:54,200 --> 02:38:58,480
Speaker 4: to storm the castle there as things were torn as under,

3298
02:38:58,520 --> 02:39:01,760
Speaker 4: seem like that would be the place. But you know,

3299
02:39:01,879 --> 02:39:04,720
Speaker 4: mentioning the change of coordinator. You know, we were talking

3300
02:39:04,760 --> 02:39:06,920
Speaker 4: a lot about San Francisco, go back to the Alex

3301
02:39:06,959 --> 02:39:10,080
Speaker 4: Smith time. If they hadn't changed coordinators every year, how

3302
02:39:10,160 --> 02:39:14,400
Speaker 4: much more could they have accelerated his life once he

3303
02:39:14,480 --> 02:39:17,480
Speaker 4: actually found some stability, ended up being a pretty solid

3304
02:39:18,240 --> 02:39:20,720
Speaker 4: above average starter for a number of years. So for

3305
02:39:20,840 --> 02:39:22,840
Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts, you hope they find that stability.

3306
02:39:23,840 --> 02:39:25,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, you wondered because there was a reason why you

3307
02:39:25,879 --> 02:39:28,320
Speaker 3: paid him, and you paid him because you looked like

3308
02:39:28,360 --> 02:39:31,720
Speaker 3: a star and a certain offense. Now you've completely deviating,

3309
02:39:31,800 --> 02:39:34,640
Speaker 3: gone away from that offense. How much does that impact

3310
02:39:34,680 --> 02:39:35,119
Speaker 3: the player?

3311
02:39:35,400 --> 02:39:37,039
Speaker 1: To check? Then, look, the check.

3312
02:39:36,920 --> 02:39:39,320
Speaker 3: Won't bounce, The check is going direct deposits. So you

3313
02:39:39,400 --> 02:39:41,520
Speaker 3: want him to play at that level. We'll see if

3314
02:39:41,520 --> 02:39:43,160
Speaker 3: the system helps him get back to that level.

3315
02:39:43,280 --> 02:39:45,480
Speaker 4: All right, All these guys are gonna play. We're gonna

3316
02:39:45,520 --> 02:39:48,360
Speaker 4: see Pachecko, We're gonna see Marlon Humphrey. How's that AFC

3317
02:39:48,400 --> 02:39:49,200
Speaker 4: Title game end?

3318
02:39:50,400 --> 02:39:53,640
Speaker 3: I think it's the Baltimore Ravens they take it. I'm

3319
02:39:53,640 --> 02:39:55,320
Speaker 3: gonna say they win by ten and then I think

3320
02:39:55,360 --> 02:39:56,480
Speaker 3: the Lions fall short.

3321
02:39:56,480 --> 02:39:58,560
Speaker 1: The Niners, Niners, Ravens Super Bowl.

3322
02:39:58,959 --> 02:40:01,320
Speaker 4: Now he's Baki, I'll buy. The countdown is next here

3323
02:40:01,360 --> 02:40:02,480
Speaker 4: on Fox Sports Radio
