Speaker 2: are we feeling?

00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: I'm feeling okay, you know, kind of trying to recover

23
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 3: still obviously was it with you guys. Friday was trying

24
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: to rest up a bit as my voice is just

25
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 3: hanging on by a thread. So it's been a lot

26
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 3: of time coming. But man, what a day of football yesterday.

27
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 3: That was awesome. Although I'll say this, how many surprises

28
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 3: were there as far as the outcomes, I can think

29
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: of one, maybe two for the rest of them. I

30
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 3: feel like the games kind of went about the way

31
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: I thought they're.

32
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 4: Going to go.

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair to say, yeah, no, I think that's fair.

34
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: I think there's a couple of surprises. Maybe teams that

35
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: you look at and go through through two weeks, maybe

36
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: a little bit better then and a little bit worse

37
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: than you thought. You know, Indianapolis, and you know, I

38
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: think a lot of people look at Indianapolis.

39
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 4: And no, no's yeah.

40
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: By the way, I don't think they've punted yet this season,

41
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: Like I don't think the Colts have punted yet, Like

42
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 2: I don't, I mean, I don't know, like they scored

43
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: on the first ten drives of the year, did the

44
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts, And it just it feels like, you know,

45
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: Shane Steichen and Daniel Jones, and you know, we can

46
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: talk to Dean Blandino coming up tomorrow about the leverage

47
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 2: call that was called on the Denver Broncos that led

48
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 2: to the penalty and the and the kick there. But

49
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: it just feels like, yeah, there's not not a lot

50
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: of people saw that coming. I don't think there's many

51
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: people that are surprised by You're.

52
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: Right by the way they have not punted the season.

53
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 3: They turned it over on downs, but they have not

54
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,399
Speaker 3: plutted this season so far.

55
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: It's amazing games that punt team just collecting checks and

56
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: not not even on the field.

57
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 5: That's sweet.

58
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 2: So so yeah, I mean Indianapolis is definitely surprised. The

59
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 2: big game from yesterday obviously, was the Super Bowl rematch

60
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: between the Chiefs and the Eagles. Philly gets it done.

61
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: They pushed their way all the way to a win.

62
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: Yet again, did that game tell you more about where

63
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 2: Philly's at or tell you more about where Kansas City

64
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 2: is at?

65
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 4: Probably more Philly.

66
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: And the reason why I said that is Kansas City's

67
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: missing Rashie Rice exam if you're worthy. I'm not trying

68
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 3: to give them a pass. But when you watch that offense.

69
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 3: It just it feels like they have no bite. They've

70
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 3: got no ability really to create much in the passing game.

71
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 4: And granted this is a game that it.

72
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 3: Wasn't some sort of offensive explosion, but I look at

73
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 3: Kansas City and I kind of give them a bit

74
00:03:58,720 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 3: of a pass.

75
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 4: Like they're the O Way two team right now.

76
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 3: I'm looking at saying, well, if there's one team that's

77
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: zero and two that's gonna make the playoffs, that's where

78
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: I put my money.

79
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 4: It's it's easy, buddy.

80
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 3: But I mean, look, the last time they started out

81
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 3: oh two was twenty fourteen, then went nine at seven.

82
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: They missed the playoffs that year. So maybe this is

83
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 4: a step.

84
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 3: Back here for the Kansasity Chiefs, and maybe they they've

85
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 3: got to start thinking about rebuilding.

86
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 4: But I feel like.

87
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 3: I probably probably gave Kansaity more of a past. Learn

88
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 3: more about Philly. I mean, they've won what is the

89
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: seventh stray whatever, They're seventeen and one of their ust

90
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: eighteen games something like that. Really they're they're incredible. This

91
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 3: is this is a team that's built to win, and

92
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 3: we should talk to start talking about them about repeating

93
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 3: because that's a real possibility.

94
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: It just feels like they know exactly who they are,

95
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 2: they know what they're gonna do. They're not gonna wow

96
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 2: you with a bunch of numbers and all that, and

97
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 2: they're you know, it's Nick siriannho made the common a

98
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 2: couple of years ago. It's first and nine and when

99
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 2: they get to short yarded situations, they're gonna use play

100
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 2: however you feel about it, and they're going to get

101
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 2: a first down or they're going to score, and they're

102
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: just going to grind you down. And that game yesterday,

103
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 2: look Kelsey dropping that ball. That was a critical mistake

104
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: in that game. It felt like Kansas City was going

105
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 2: into the end zone to score there and then all

106
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 2: of a sudden, it's an interception. It's headed back the

107
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 2: other way. And I do wonder about Kansas City because

108
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: it feels like it feels like the past more than

109
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 2: a year, the questions about the Chiefs have been more

110
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 2: about offense and it has defense.

111
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 5: Is that fair?

112
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: And you can go back to the super Bowl last

113
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 2: year and you can go, well, they got blown out

114
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: in the super Bowl. But even though it wasn't like

115
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: you know, Philly was totally dominant on offense, there was

116
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: a couple of explosive plays that DeVante Smith touchdown was

117
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: one of them, but that pick six before halftime was

118
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 2: it was a huge mistake. It just it feels like

119
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 2: the Kansas City concerns are more on the offensive side

120
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: of the ball, and that's been going on for a

121
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: while now. And I don't know if you chalk that

122
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 2: up to injuries or what, but it just feels like

123
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: this is not the same explosive offensive team that we've

124
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 2: seen in previous years with Patrick Mahomes and those guys.

125
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 2: And I don't know if it's age, I don't know

126
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: what it is, but it just feels like there's a

127
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: different vibe around this team than there has been a

128
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: year's past.

129
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 3: So the one thing I kind of look at with

130
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 3: Kansas City that is always concerning is they've never really

131
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: developed a run game that's consistent. I mean, if you

132
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 3: want to look at the contrast, and we could look at,

133
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: you know, last year's Super Bowl, we could look at

134
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 3: these two teams and simply say this, Philly, when they

135
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 3: need to make throws, they can.

136
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 4: And I know Jaylor Hurts didn't have a prolific.

137
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 3: Day yesterday, barely threw over one hundred yards you know,

138
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 3: probably with sacks, and you know it took away from that.

139
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 4: But when they need to make throws, he does.

140
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 3: You know, They've got Saquon, They've got aj Dillon, They've

141
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 3: got Hurts who could run the football too. They can

142
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 3: push you around up front, and they can rely on

143
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 3: the running game and good defense. There's never really that

144
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 3: style of play from Kansas City that I think they

145
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 3: can win with. Like that's the one thing that I

146
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: look at and say, all right with Mahomes is off

147
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 3: or if they're going to play, you know, a bunch

148
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 3: of different coverage types to really force the issue and

149
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 3: dare Kansas City to run they just don't have it. Man,

150
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 3: when Patch Mahomes is your leading rusher who more than

151
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 3: doubled with your next player running back was able to accumulate,

152
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 3: that's a problem. So I don't know if it's more

153
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 3: of a matter of missing up front with who they

154
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 3: brought in and the look at guys who are you know,

155
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 3: maybe a little better at protecting or just saying hey,

156
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: we're okay with.

157
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 4: Not being able to run the footballs effectively.

158
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 3: But but I look at it yesterday as an example

159
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 3: of where this league's going right now. You know, we

160
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 3: talked about like the value of the running backs, and

161
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 3: you know, maybe the value of them is starting to

162
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 3: skyrocket again because.

163
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 4: You've got so many teams who are starting.

164
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: To pay some of these guys because they see the

165
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 3: value and be able to consistently run the football. Kansas

166
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: City doesn't do that. It's almost like they have it adapted.

167
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 3: They have it adjusted what everyone else has, or at

168
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: least so the top teams have. So that's my big concerntive.

169
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: If I'm looking at Kansas City critically, it's I don't

170
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 3: know if you'd say they rely on Patrick Mahomes the

171
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: passing game too much, but they sure as heck don't

172
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 3: care about running the football, and they need to start

173
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: caring about that otherwise they're gonna go nine at seven

174
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: and we sitting outside looking in like they did in

175
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 3: twenty fourteen.

176
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, maybe the running back is back. You know,

177
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: all that conversation about you know, one of these guys

178
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 2: are going to become a factor. It's like, you know,

179
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 2: Green Bay's the other team you look at, and there's

180
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 2: no question that you know, when the weather changes and

181
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 2: it gets to the postseason, they'll just hand the ball

182
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 2: off to Josh Jacobs, like if they need to, they

183
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 2: can grind out games with him. But Kansas City doesn't

184
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 2: feel like they have that guy now. Patrick Mahomes did

185
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: talk afterwards their leading sure the best running back on

186
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. Patrick Mahomes spoke afterwards about the Kelsey turnover

187
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 2: in that moment in the game.

188
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean we got the defense that we wanted.

189
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 6: You know, we expect him to play that zero zero

190
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 6: with the whole player with the safety I just got.

191
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 6: I think I threw put as a tad too early,

192
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 6: you know, just trying to put on his body low

193
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 6: before that whole player got there. And I think if

194
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 6: I can put it more on his body and not

195
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 6: so far out in front of him, then he can

196
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 6: catch it, take the hit and get in the end

197
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 6: zone and throw a.

198
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 5: Little bit low with the goal line that just like

199
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 5: that across the inside.

200
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, you want to put it low, just but more

201
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 6: on his body. You know, whenever you're in those tight

202
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 6: quarters like that, you want to give it to him,

203
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 6: especially a bigger guy, more on his body he can

204
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 6: catch it. Brace for that contact. We knew the whole

205
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 6: player be looking for him. I mean that's one of

206
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 6: our big targets down there in the red zone, and

207
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 6: so get he was breaking to kind of make a

208
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 6: hit and it was just unfortunate bounced up in the

209
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 6: air and went right to him.

210
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, not ideal. If you had the Chiefs plus one

211
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: and a half, that's not not a great spot to

212
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: be in. The bright side is if they're looking for

213
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 2: somebody to on the ball, why don't you just give

214
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 2: it to Josh Simmons Because that play he made chasing

215
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: down that interception was really that was really impressive. That

216
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: was really impressive. And I know Pete Prisco's coming up

217
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: an hour three. He was a Josh Simmons fan and

218
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 2: spoke highly of him afterwards. I'm sure he's going to

219
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 2: use that as more proof that, you know, he's always

220
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: on the right side of things. But yeah, I don't know, man,

221
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 2: It just it doesn't feel like the same the same

222
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: team that we've seen in previous years. And maybe this

223
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 2: is just the end of the end of the I

224
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 2: don't know, the dynasty, the end of the era for

225
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs, and this is just more than

226
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 2: likely how it goes because we can point to the

227
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 2: Patriots and their dominance that they had for all the

228
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: years that they had it. But there was a time

229
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 2: there where the Patriots went about a decade between super bowls.

230
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 2: So like the exception and the rule, this this is

231
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 2: more like what we see from dynasties when it starts

232
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 2: to starts to fade away. The exception is New England

233
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 2: and what they did with two different times that they

234
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 2: were able to make championship runs and hold that thing

235
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 2: together for twenty years. They've been doing this for you know,

236
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 2: the better part of a decade, and maybe this is

237
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 2: you know, we're at the point to where you know,

238
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 2: it starts to starts to fade away a little bit here,

239
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 2: I think.

240
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 3: I think the other thing you have to acknowledge is

241
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 3: I've said this before, and I'm not sure it landed

242
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 3: the way I wanted it to, at least when when

243
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 3: var was with us. The AFC West is a much

244
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: more difficult division than the AFCAST. For as great as it

245
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 3: was a run for the Patriots, if we're being honest,

246
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 3: you know, the Bills hadn't gotten Josh Allen yet really,

247
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 3: at least not into his prime.

248
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 4: You know, the Dolphins were not really competitive. You look

249
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 4: at the Jets.

250
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 3: The Jets were, you know, outside of that run with

251
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: Mangini for a small a short period of time, even

252
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 3: with you know, Rex Ryan, I guess you could say too,

253
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 3: weren't overly competitive, like that was a division that they

254
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 3: were able to dominate partly because it was an EPT.

255
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 4: You look at the s AFC West.

256
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: They've got a Denver Broncos team that thinks, you know,

257
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 3: highly effective and will be as a bright future with

258
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 3: Bo Nicks. So the pieces there bill to with Sean

259
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 3: Payton obviously, the Chargers, who already beat this Kansasity Chiefs

260
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 3: team in Week one in Brazil. That's a team to

261
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 3: look out for. It looks like a playoff team. You know,

262
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 3: you kind of start to go through the division, just say,

263
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 3: all right, even I think you'd admit the Raiders have

264
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 3: been better this year than what maybe what we thought.

265
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 3: So I look at the division as a whole and

266
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 3: just say, even if you wanted to try to compare

267
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: them to what the Patriots were, this is a much

268
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 3: tougher road just to win the division than what Todd Brady,

269
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick had battle.

270
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it was always new England was going to

271
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 2: have a buy in the playoffs and all they had

272
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 2: to do was win two games and they were back

273
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 2: in a super Bowl. And now you know, the Chiefs

274
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 2: might have to go on the road. They might have

275
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 2: to you know, be a wild card team to depending

276
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: on how the division goes. Yeah, it's I mean, the

277
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: AFC East was awful, Like they were really bad for

278
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 2: a long time. And it's almost like the Bills.

279
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: Those are the pre dildo days. Yeah, at least you know,

280
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 4: it was until the very end.

281
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was way way back before the og of

282
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 2: the dildo on the field the Buffalo Bills, which by

283
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 2: the way, they missed their opportunity to.

284
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: We had one since Yeah, yeah, we tumble down onto

285
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 4: the field.

286
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 2: Neon Green again, I'm assuming was the I did not

287
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 2: see video, but I just saw somebody tweet about it

288
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: and say, Okay, well I guess, you know, I guess

289
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 2: that's what we're gonna do. It was still doing. People

290
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: don't know that the joke is over and it trun its.

291
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 3: Core bend over end though is the throw was the

292
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 3: technique and it hit on the tip and it continued

293
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 3: to bounce a little bit.

294
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 5: That's rough.

295
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a rough way to go I

296
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: would imagine, you know, if you'd want to do it,

297
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 2: you want to throw a spiral, that would be That

298
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: would be my my assumption, Like if you were going

299
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: to throw a illdo on the field, that you would

300
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: go spiral. I know that you were very classy and

301
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 2: doing so. Asking Dean Blandino last week about how he

302
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 2: would pick it up off the field as an official,

303
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 2: which I don't think people thought Dean was going to

304
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: answer that the way that he did, but he just

305
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: rolled right with it, and uh.

306
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 3: Well, I also would like to point out that he

307
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: is absolutely full of crap. There's not a designated official.

308
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 3: Every single time we've seen one of these, it's someone

309
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 3: from security.

310
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 4: It just so happened.

311
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 3: One of the clips, unfortunately, showed a guy with his

312
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: ass crack out who was picking it up, which I

313
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 3: can't think of a worse Look, Oh, you can't have

314
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: your ass cracked out and you're picking up a dildo

315
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 3: off the field, which is That's that says way too

316
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 3: many things potentially be going on and people are going.

317
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: To jump to conclusions about you as an individual if

318
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 2: that's the case, Like, you know, was his ass crack

319
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: hanging out intentionally or was that something that that was

320
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 2: by accident as he's picking up the dildo. Yeah no,

321
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 2: I'm with you. That's that's not a way to go.

322
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: But what is a way to go is the Filmladelphia

323
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: Eagles are now two and oho on the season. They

324
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 2: have seemingly lost in a long ass time and it

325
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 2: doesn't look like they're gonna slow down anytime soon. So

326
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: good game for Philly. Kansas City's got to get a

327
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: rally and try and figure things out moving forward, and

328
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 2: who knows, maybe they'll get healthier and we'll see Josh

329
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 2: Shimmons in the backfield. If they'll loot for a running game,

330
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 2: that might be something.

331
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,480

Speaker 2: We have it on good authority that you're sick and

00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: tired of hearing about the tush push.

353
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 5: So what's the way is that that's what's going on?

354
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 4: What's the Oh my god, what's bothering you?

355
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 5: Dean.

356
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 8: I've gone on record. I don't love the play. Whatever

357
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 8: great Eagles are do it better than anybody else. They

358
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 8: work at it, they practice good for them. I'm just

359
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 8: you know, we had the game in Kansas City, obviously

360
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 8: Super Bowl rematch. This is like, this is the biggest

361
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 8: early game of the year so far, the two teams,

362
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 8: the whole deal, and we're watching, quite frankly, just the

363
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 8: crappiest football play. We got false starts, we got off sides,

364
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 8: we got all kinds of crap on this play and

365
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 8: no calls and it's just not I just don't like

366
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 8: it and finally just got set up and you know,

367
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 8: I just said, I'm done with the touch push guys.

368
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 5: That was it.

369
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 8: Tom Brady was like, Brady was like giving me the

370
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 8: thumbs up. He's like yeah, he goes. He's like, you

371
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 8: tell him go. I'm like, yeah, I know, I know.

372
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 3: In all seriousness, it feels like, let's just go back

373
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 3: to the genesis of like why this play is even allowed.

374
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 3: So you guys did away with the whole you know,

375
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 3: pushing an eighty runner because you feel like you could

376
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 3: officiate it properly correct.

377
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what happened back in oh five, and so

378
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 8: this had been illegal forever and then there and it

379
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 8: wasn't it right. This play didn't exist, right, This didn't

380
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 8: exist until the Eagles started doing it. Whenever twenty one,

381
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 8: it was twenty two, and so there was there was

382
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 8: some plays, especially near the goal line, where the runner

383
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 8: would get hit stacked up and you've got a big

384
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 8: pile and the linemen are pushing both. You know, defense

385
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 8: is pushing, offenses pushing, and it was a harder play

386
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 8: to officiate, and you just never the officials just didn't

387
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 8: call it. So and in hindsight, it was a mistake,

388
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 8: like my in my view, it was a mistake to

389
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 8: take that out and it was fine until until you

390
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,479
Speaker 8: know that now we get this play, which is a

391
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 8: pretty easy play to officiate. If you took it out,

392
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 8: you couldn't be pretty easy to say, you okay, you

393
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 8: know they're they're pushing. It's a foul. And maybe look,

394
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 8: maybe they take it out in the off season. We'll

395
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 8: see and then teams do something else. You never know,

396
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 8: but yeah, you just you just never know what's going

397
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 8: to happen. But in hindsight, it was a mistake to

398
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 8: take that out.

399
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 9: Dan, I gotta ask this, and I know you know

400
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 9: the answer to it because I've been around you when

401
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,239
Speaker 9: you were in office and you were active and you

402
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 9: had your remote control. As I always bring up, which

403
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 9: I thought is super crazy cool, Why are you guys,

404
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 9: why why do the decision maker allow the lineman to

405
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 9: run a muck? And I believe what I saw on Sunday,

406
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 9: they are running way more a muck than what I've

407
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 9: seen in prior years. Like I saw guys literally beer

408
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 9: hugging guys from behind like the guy was about to

409
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 9: go make a play. The lineman puts his arms around

410
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 9: him his arms and poolsing from behind. I've seen some

411
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 9: of the most. I mean, it's it's upsetting for me

412
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 9: as a defender. It's upsetting to see it. How is this?

413
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 4: How? How is like?

414
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 9: What are the conversations with these referees in allowing these

415
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 9: linemen to just hold at basically any cost, any angle,

416
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 9: any anything, and it not get called.

417
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,360
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, no, it's a great point. I do think

418
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 8: in recent years there has been this push and they

419
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 8: won't out and say it, but to less flags, right

420
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 8: and and and it's been and people think, oh, you know,

421
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 8: that was such a great game. There was no flags,

422
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 8: there was no and and and it and there's less stoppages,

423
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 8: which is good. But when you have that kind of

424
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 8: mindset and then you know, you know you played you

425
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 8: know where. Okay, if they're gonna let us play today,

426
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 8: and that's that, you know we're gonna let them play today,

427
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 8: you know you can probably push the envelope and get

428
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 8: away with a little more. And right now, that's what's happening. Okay,

429
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 8: I'm not getting flag, Okay, I'm gonna try to gain

430
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 8: an advantage and and that's what's happening. And look the

431
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 8: gap I don't think you guys probably know better than me.

432
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 8: But the gap between offensive line play and offensive linemen

433
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 8: and and the defensive line, I don't think it's ever

434
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 8: been greater in terms of athleticism and everything else. And

435
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 8: so they're already out of they're already out of deficiency.

436
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 8: And now you know they're they're they're doing their best

437
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 8: to try to you know, just just even the playes.

438
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 9: Go ahead, let them hold them because you're just not

439
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 9: as an athletic guys.

440
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 8: You can't and and that, and that's not right. Right.

441
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 8: You said you got to call it when it's there.

442
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 8: You got to call it because if you don't, it's

443
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 8: just going to get worse and worse. And then that,

444
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 8: you know, and then defensive players get frustrated, and then

445
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 8: it turns into other stuff that you got to kind

446
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 8: of you got to handle one. And that's not good

447
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 8: for the game either.

448
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 2: Dean Blandino joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. It's

449
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 2: LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here, two

450
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 2: pros and a cup of Joe on FSR. I do

451
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 2: want to ask you at the leveraging call that Denver

452
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: got called for that ultimately led to the rekick in

453
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 2: Indianapolis winning that game. So what what is the rule?

454
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: What was the infraction? You just you can't use the

455
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 2: the person on the line to propel yourself. Is that

456
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 2: basically sort of the gist of out the rule works.

457
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 8: Yeah, you can't. You can't put either your hands your arms.

458
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 8: You can't push off, whether it's a teammate or or

459
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 8: an opponent. You can't push off to gain height to

460
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 8: block the kick. Now that look, I think, I think

461
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 8: that's if you watch it like I can see. Okay, Yeah,

462
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 8: by rule, that's a foul. It happens a lot and

463
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 8: doesn't get called, and that's such a big play. I

464
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 8: think the legal support that call I had. Teump Payton

465
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 8: texted me yesterday. I hadn't seen the play, but he

466
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 8: asked me if it was a foul, and when I

467
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 8: looked at it, I said, they're going to support it

468
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 8: because he did put his left hand down, he pushed off,

469
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 8: and he did propel himself. And so that is the rule. Again,

470
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 8: you don't see it called all that often, but that's

471
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 8: obviously a huge call in the game.

472
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 4: Indeed, you were with was it Tom and the Crew

473
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 4: this week? Yeah?

474
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, he was with me. He was with me?

475
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, straight, did you actually did you go to the

476
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 4: RV trailer thing? Did you guys going there?

477
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 8: I haven't been in it yet. I haven't been in

478
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 8: it yet.

479
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 4: No, but you know about it, don't you?

480
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 8: Oh? Yeah?

481
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 4: Oh yeah?

482
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 8: Yeah?

483
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 5: What is Q? What's he getting? What is Q into?

484
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 3: He's he travels around in a like a luxury mobile.

485
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 5: Hole.

486
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's not every week, but there is. Yeah, and

487
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 8: it has like all like I would do it too

488
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 8: with it because it has all you know, it's like

489
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 8: it's like an extension of his home. He's comfortable. Yeah.

490
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 8: I haven't been in it yet, though, you know, I

491
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 8: kind of I'm a man, a man of the people,

492
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 8: A man of the people. I stay. We got to

493
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 8: stay in the four seasons, all right, I'll stay in

494
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 8: the four seasons, all right?

495
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 4: Yes, that sounds like a big struggle there. State of

496
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 4: the four seasons?

497
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 9: Tang dang? What what jumped out at you this weekend?

498
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 9: Like when you're watching it? Obviously again I said, it's

499
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 9: hard to watch as a civilian once you've seen it

500
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 9: the way that you're going to see, whether it's a player,

501
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 9: whether it's doing it as a rules expert, and calls.

502
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 9: What what did you see this weekend that jumped off

503
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 9: the screen that was like worth committing to memory for you.

504
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 8: Well, obviously look our game Chiefs Eagles. It was it

505
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 8: was both defenses were really dominating the game. We talked

506
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 8: about the Sosh push, we talked about the alignment, those

507
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 8: types of things. Then you watch a game like like

508
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 8: Dallas and the Giants and there was no defense in

509
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 8: the second half and it was just like a shootout

510
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 8: and it was it was a crazy game. I think again,

511
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 8: like we talked about last week, we're still the football

512
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 8: isn't isn't top notch. Yet It'll get there, you know,

513
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 8: Week four, Week five. You know, from an officiating perspective,

514
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 8: I think they're you know, they have to. They're going

515
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 8: to continue to emphasize the sportsmanship, ship stuff and the

516
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 8: and the taunting and those types of things. Ce d

517
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 8: Lamb in that game, right, Giants had three I haven't

518
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 8: seen that in a long time. Giants had three fouls

519
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 8: on one play and then Ceedee Lamb got up and

520
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 8: got in somebody's face and and and that offset all

521
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 8: of it, which is which is the right the right rule?

522
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 8: But so I just think those are things that players

523
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 8: are going to have to continue to uh you know,

524
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 8: make sure they they just because those penalties are big

525
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 8: in the game.

526
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 2: As an official, when did you feel like you were

527
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 2: all right, we've got the early Are we talking like

528
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: week three, week four? You feel like everybody's starting to

529
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 2: kind of come into their own as.

530
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 8: Far as Yeah, I think I think by week three,

531
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 8: week four, probably week four. Again, it's look, when I

532
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 8: remember when I first started at the league office, I mean,

533
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 8: the preseason was legit like and and so I think

534
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 8: it was earlier, right because they were playing four preseason games.

535
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 8: Your started like that. That third preseason game was like

536
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 8: a regular season game for for a lot of teams

537
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 8: almost you know, two and a half three quarters. So

538
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 8: I think now it does probably get through the first

539
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 8: month of the season and then teams know, Okay, this

540
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 8: is who we are and what we're good at and

541
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 8: uh and and I think it gets better from there.

542
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 3: I keep looking at passing interference. I feel like it's

543
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 3: obviously the way you're rewarded on the offense makes us

544
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 3: so impactful in games. But also I feel like we're

545
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 3: getting to a point where it just I don't know,

546
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 3: let's get a little touchy out there, you know what

547
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like, I feel like we're calling it or

548
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 3: more apt to call it than not. And I'm not

549
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 3: asking if the officials are being coach different about this.

550
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 3: I just feel like, are they cognizant of how much

551
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 3: this could turn a game or change your drive?

552
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 8: But just I think they are. It's a bit right

553
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 8: when you get a thirty yard penalty, it's an underthrown ball.

554
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 8: Sometimes right, it's it's it's a big big it's a

555
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,120
Speaker 8: big call, and they are coached. And I remember Maurica

556
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 8: talks when when John Fox when he was at the

557
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 8: Panthers and then at the Bears, and he used to

558
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 8: complain about past and appearances. He said something that always

559
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 8: stuck with me. He's like, he's like, the event to

560
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 8: passenger should call itself. And I kind of always thought

561
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 8: that was a good way of looking at it, because

562
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 8: you should jump out right, it should be obvious. These

563
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 8: are big penalties and you want to you know, we

564
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 8: talk about hand fighting if they're if they're jockeying for position.

565
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 8: You know, receivers are just as handy too, and you

566
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 8: can't let them get away with stuff. So but you

567
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 8: wanted to really call itself. And I like the rule

568
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 8: because I feel like it versus the college rule because

569
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,719
Speaker 8: if you took away that, if you went to more

570
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 8: of a college rule. Right, these dbs are so good,

571
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 8: you're gonna you're gonna really hurt the deep passing game

572
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 8: and they're going to play really aggressively in that game

573
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 8: and say, okay, I'll give up the fifteen versus versus

574
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 8: a thirty yard play. And so I like where it is.

575
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 8: But I do think the officials have You just have

576
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 8: to continue to be consistent, not not called tiki tech

577
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 8: stuff because like you said, it's a big it's a

578
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 8: big penalty in the game.

579
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 9: Personal opinion is Kansas City or are they on the decline?

580
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 9: Or you know, just sign it in person? What is

581
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 9: the runover?

582
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,439
Speaker 8: We talked about it yesterday and I think, look, that

583
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 8: defense is great. They you know you fags is incredible.

584
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 8: You know their defensive coordinator, Steve Spagnolo. I think, let's

585
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 8: see who they are when they get rushy, right. You

586
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,360
Speaker 8: know zab Worthy was out, Yes, it was that on Sunday.

587
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 8: It just looked like they weren't you know, Mahomes didn't

588
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 8: have a ton of options, people getting open for him.

589
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 8: He was doing more with his legs. Obviously scored a

590
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 8: touchdown a rushing TV So I want to see them

591
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 8: at full strength on offense because that defense is going

592
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 8: to keep them in games. So I don't think it's

593
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 8: over yet. I would never count them out.

594
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 2: Dean Blandino joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. He's

595
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 2: Fox Sports NFL College Football rules Analyst. Where do you

596
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 2: stand on targeting in college football? There was, you know,

597
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 2: we see it seemingly every week. LSU had a player ejected,

598
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: but on the broadcast I think it was Sean McDonough said, well,

599
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 2: you know he's he's the new change this year. He's

600
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 2: a lot to stay on the sidelines for the rest

601
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,239
Speaker 2: of the game. It's like, okay, well that helps, But like,

602
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 2: where do you stand in general on how targeting is

603
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 2: handled in college football?

604
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,239
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think the rule has done its job. I

605
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 8: think when it first went in, you know, targeting is

606
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 8: two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, and the

607
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 8: hits that you saw then you don't see anymore. So

608
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 8: I think it's done its job. But I think we

609
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 8: got to look at the rule because the game is

610
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 8: evolved and players have done a great job. Coaches, everybody's

611
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 8: done a really good job. Now we got to look

612
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 8: at the rule. To me, I really do think the

613
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 8: disqualification is it's too punitive because there's different layers of targeting.

614
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 8: You could see, right, you can see a targeting and go, yeah, okay,

615
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 8: that's that's a foul by rule. And now now if

616
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 8: it's in the third quarter, guess what you're missing the

617
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 8: rest of this game in the first half of the

618
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 8: next game, that's such a big penalty. I think we

619
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 8: got to get to can we get Okay, there are

620
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 8: some hits that should be fifteen yard penalties, but not

621
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 8: the disqualification. I think that's the next iteration of this rule.

622
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 8: And I'm part of the rules committee in college football,

623
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 8: so so you know, we're going to look at that

624
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 8: and hopefully we can get the rules committee and the people,

625
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 8: you know, the powers that be on board with Hey,

626
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 8: these are not their penalties, but they shouldn't be disqualifications.

627
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 8: And I think we got to look at that that

628
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 8: going forward.

629
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 4: Did you get some Italian when you guys were in

630
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 4: Kansas City?

631
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 8: Did see that again?

632
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 3: Did you get some Italian while you guys were in

633
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 3: Kansas City?

634
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 5: Arc.

635
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 8: Of course, of course we went to and I'm not

636
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 8: it's not going to be a great promo because I

637
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 8: already forgot the name of it. But they we stayed

638
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 8: at the Lows where the Eagles were staying, so we

639
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 8: got we got some big domb time, which was great

640
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 8: and uh, speaking of Italians, so that's yeah, that's the

641
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 8: Italian that I got. But we had some good food

642
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 8: and we ate. We Travis and and Patrick are part

643
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 8: of like they're they're involved with this restaurant that was

644
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 8: just opened up, opening up a.

645
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the fifth fifteen to eighty seven steakhouse, I believe, yep, it.

646
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 4: Looks to be a good spot real quick. Though. On

647
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 4: the Dob front, do you kind.

648
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 3: Of look at like his role with it the Eagles

649
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 3: that feel like most teams should have someone but I

650
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 3: feel like they do, but it's not to the extent

651
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 3: that Dobb's able to, you know, kind of control the sidelines,

652
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,479
Speaker 3: control the team and all the stuff that goes on.

653
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 8: Well everybody, you know, every team has somebody like that.

654
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 8: I think Dobb, who's awesome, by the way, who's I

655
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 8: think she's become and not And when you talk to him,

656
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 8: he doesn't like he just he doesn't want the spotlight.

657
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 8: He doesn't, but I think it finds him. And so

658
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 8: now that people know, you know, you have the situation

659
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 8: with the Niners where he got thrown out of the

660
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 8: game and with I think it was green Law, and

661
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,719
Speaker 8: so now it's kind of like people recognize him and

662
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 8: it's almost like the camera finds him and I think

663
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 8: we just see him more like you saw him on

664
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 8: the broadcast, you know, when when Sirianni was going going

665
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 8: a halftime and John with the officials a little bit

666
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 8: and Dom was there. So everybody has a Dom, but

667
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 8: I think Dom is just more, you know, he's more known,

668
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 8: and at this point, I think the camera just just

669
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 8: tends to find him.

670
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 5: He's good Penn stater.

671
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 4: He is a stater.

672
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 2: Dean always appreciate it. Man, Thanks so much for the time.

673
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: And I felt like we kept it a little more

674
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 2: classy this week, more professional.

675
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, there was no no dildo talk, thanks guys.

676
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 4: I was going to point out though there was a

677
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 4: dildo throat.

678
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 8: I believe it was the Bengals game Brady has Brady

679
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 8: has like it at his home like a dildo counter,

680
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 8: and every time any game and for North American professional Sports.

681
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 8: He's going to branch out here as well. But when

682
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 8: a bildo was thrown, it like goes off and it's like, oh,

683
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 8: we got one, and we got one.

684
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 3: In it's actually called the dildo doppler. He definitely keeps

685
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 3: looking for it, but just thoughts on that, indeed, you

686
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 3: lied to us the last time we had you on,

687

Speaker 3: seen it. One official pick one up the entire time.

689
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 3: It's usually some guys showed his ass crack, which is

690
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 3: also a bad to.

691
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,640

714
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 2: Good morning, So Hello, Hello, Hello, how we feel Petros?

715
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: Are the Panic Brothers out yet? For the Dodgers struggles

716
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 2: lines against the Phillies.

717
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 10: It's pretty bad. I mean the Dodgers' bullpen is really bad.

718
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 10: I mean the starters are great and they go scoreless

719
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 10: and then the bullpen just blows it. The Phillies are

720
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 10: a lot like the Dodgers. They hit a lot of

721
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 10: home runs and they bonk those balls out of there

722
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 10: late in the game extras two nights ago. Last night,

723
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 10: the Dodgers blew it again in the ninth. I wouldn't

724
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 10: say the Panic Brothers are out. I mean, the Panic

725
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 10: Brothers have been out, but I would say that they

726
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 10: have to go to the wild Card and it's not

727
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 10: going to be an easy path to the World Series

728
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 10: if they're.

729
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 4: Gonna make it back, and we need the money.

730
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 10: So we'll see how it plays out, but it is

731
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 10: interesting to watch because, I mean, people said the Dodgers

732
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 10: were going to win one hundred and twenty games. They

733
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 10: was supposed to be the greatest baseball team of all time.

734
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 4: Who said that? Jo who said that.

735
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,439
Speaker 10: There's a lot of articles in town and the LA

736
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 10: Times and stuff with the way they built the team

737
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 10: going into the season, and when they started, I think

738
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 10: they were like eight to o, nine to oh. It

739
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 10: looked like they weren't going to lose a game all year,

740
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 10: and it certainly didn't play out like that. I mean,

741
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 10: they'd been competitive and good and they probably will still

742
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 10: win the division, but we'll see what happens without that

743
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 10: bye week. Maybe it'll be good for him without the

744
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 10: bye week.

745
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 4: Who knows.

746
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 10: But their bullpen is terrible, and it's hard to know

747
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 10: what's gonna happen with any of these guys. Tanner, Scott, Kirby, Yates,

748
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 10: all these guys they signed the offseason. They're getting their

749
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 10: boobs scooped out like Basking Robbins every time they go pitch.

750
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 2: N I mean, they're really getting their tease lit, if

751
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, taking Otani out with

752
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 2: a no hitter going that lamb with you.

753
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 10: Well, you know they took out Todd of glass now

754
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 10: the other night with a no hitter in like the

755
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 10: seventh Yeah, and he was like, you know, well.

756
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 4: I understood why they're took me out. I've been hurt.

757
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 4: It's like, don't you want to pitch a no hitter? Any?

758
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 4: I mean, I I don't know, but whatever. I mean.

759
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 4: We're waiting for the playoffs.

760
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,919
Speaker 10: They all have bigger fish to fry with the great

761
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 10: football season underway, and we'll see what happens in the

762
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 10: wildcard round. We'll gear up and it all excited about it.

763
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 10: I don't know if they'll send me wharring out that

764
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 10: I have a new boss now. If the Dodgers lose

765
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 10: early in the playoffs, usually I have to really hore

766
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 10: it out, like like do a lot of BJ's shows

767
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 10: and things of that nature to.

768
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,720
Speaker 4: Make who's your new boss?

769
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:21,320

00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 10: But when our old boss Don Martin. You know, if

771

772
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 10: for a long time, Uh, then I have to put

773
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 10: on my silk stockings and get my leg out in

774
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,120

Speaker 4: see what happened.

778
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 5: By the way, who is that and the fine pizza?

779
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 2: Oh oh, that's the one year the Dodgers got eliminated.

780
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 2: You guys got are doing impromptu Uh oh yeah, that party.

781
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, we had to do it like a prisoner. We

782
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 10: got to make up one hundred and twelve twenty thousand dollar.

783
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 10: Y'all are going to do a Christmas party at Tarantula.

784
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 10: It's going to be mostly average base.

785
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 4: Yeah.

786
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 10: Well, so we'll see what happens this year. But it's

787
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 10: always it's not just a job, it's an adventure.

788
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 5: Oh God, that is hilarious. Go go, go cue.

789
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 3: I was going to transition from that job to a

790
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 3: job that is now opened as the head coach of UCLA.

791
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 3: I just take me through the timing of all this, Petros,

792
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 3: because it feels a bit early to just kind of

793
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 3: throw the towel on a guy who I get it.

794
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 3: His opening press conference could have got any worse. But

795
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 3: that team did improve the second half of last year.

796
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 4: They did. Why no grace given to Deshaun Foster to

797
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 4: start this year That's an interesting question.

798
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 10: I think that UCLA was in a big, big problem

799
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 10: a couple of years ago. At the end of the year,

800
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 10: UCLA finished like seventy seven and five when they very

801
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 10: easily could have been you know, like ten and and

802
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 10: and and two, and the fan base was really really

803
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 10: frustrated and everybody wanted chip Kelly fired, and Martin Jarmond,

804
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 10: the ad UCLA, didn't do anything.

805
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 4: He just didn't do anything.

806
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 10: And chip Kelly went on to beat Boise State in

807
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 10: the LA Bowl and they finished with eight wins, and

808
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 10: nothing happened. Chip Kelly wasn't recruiting, he wasn't motivated, he

809
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 10: was not getting along with anybody at the university. So

810
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 10: at that point, if you're Martin Jarmond, you either find

811
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 10: a way to get along with your multimillion dollar head coach,

812
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 10: find a way to make the relationship work. Is that

813
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 10: as your job as the athletic director, or fire him.

814
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 10: And he didn't do either. He didn't fire him, he

815
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,280
Speaker 10: didn't repair the relationship. Next thing, you know, chip Kelly

816
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 10: takes a better job that happens to be the coordinator

817
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 10: job at Ohio State, and then they go on to

818
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 10: win the national title. And now he's getting paid even

819
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,280
Speaker 10: more to call plays for the Raiders. Three field goals

820
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 10: worth last.

821
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 4: On Monday Night. So they Martin Jarman dropped the ball.

822
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 10: With the relationship with Chip Kelly. So then what did

823
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 10: they do next? You know, there was timing was weird,

824
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 10: but he still didn't lift a finger. And they hired

825
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 10: DeShawn Foster. They're running back coach UCLA legend, a guy

826
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 10: that I played a lot of football against when I

827
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 10: was a kid. De'shaun Foster, great guy, Brewin, legend, good recruiter,

828
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 10: I guess, running back coach, But nobody would have hired

829
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 10: Deshaun Foster to even be a coordinator, let alone be

830
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 10: a head coach. It's just no one else, whatever you

831
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 10: think about Deshon Foster, no one else was going to

832
00:40:55,560 --> 00:41:00,760
Speaker 10: hire DeShawn Foster. So now Martin Jarman hires DeShawn. Deshaun

833
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,359
Speaker 10: was clearly and you just mentioned the big ten thing,

834
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 10: he was clearly uncomfortable doing the job.

835
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,760
Speaker 4: He was aloof He.

836
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 10: Was unhappy answering questions about anything, which is fine if

837
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 10: you win games. They did improve a little bit last year,

838
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 10: ended up losing to USC and didn't make a Bowl game.

839
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:23,839
Speaker 4: But you're right.

840
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 10: The team looked like they wouldn't win a game to

841
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 10: start the year, and they did get a little better.

842
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 10: But this year, you know, it's one thing to have

843
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 10: Utah come out and beat you in game one, but

844
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,240
Speaker 10: you lose back to back games to Mountain West teams

845
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 10: and the Rose Bowl is empty, which it always is anyway.

846
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 10: Now that's a real big problem. So they went ahead

847
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 10: and fired him, and they have Tim Skipper, who was

848
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 10: a good interim, well, a serviceable interim, knows how to

849
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 10: do it. He did it last year at Fresno because

850
00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 10: Jeff Tedford's health problems caused him to step down. So

851
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 10: it's just been overall a very very mismanaged situation, and

852
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 10: Deshaun did himself no favors to start this season off

853
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 10: pissing off the very soft LA media. And you know,

854
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 10: if you piss off the media early in the season,

855
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 10: you build no equity with them, and you lose two

856
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 10: Mountain West games.

857
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 4: They were going to pile on him, and.

858
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 10: They did, so he ends up making seventeen million dollars

859
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 10: in a job that no one else would have hired

860
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 10: him to do, and now no one has any confidence

861
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 10: in the ad everybody wants him fired, so who's going

862
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 10: to hire the next head coach? Plus the fact, and

863
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 10: I saw this text or.

864
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:40,839
Speaker 4: Email or whatever it is a.

865
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:46,800
Speaker 10: Tweet from Josh Pate, an ex post the college football.

866
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 4: Expert, and what he said was painfully true.

867
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 10: Most of the people getting mentioned for the UCLA job

868
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 10: have better jobs, and most.

869
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 4: Of them are coordinator jobs.

870
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,839
Speaker 10: UCLA is in a tough spot, and there are solutions

871
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 10: for the UCLA football program, but they're dramatic solutions, and

872
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,919
Speaker 10: a lot of people on the West Coast like see

873
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 10: this as karma because they feel like UCLA was one

874
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 10: of the one of the deciding factors in ruining the

875
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 10: Pac twelve.

876
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 4: The deciding factor in ruining.

877
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 10: The Pac twelve was Larry Scott, who drove the thing

878
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 10: into the ground for a decade plus. But there is

879
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 10: no doubt that UCLA is a national embarrassment and they're

880
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 10: supposed to be a lot better at football, or they're

881
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 10: pay more attention to football than they don't.

882
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:34,840
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to follow up, but I would love to

883
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 3: know you know there there moved to the Big ten,

884
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 3: has netted the more money on the TV media rights deal,

885
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 3: So why have they not been able to apply that

886
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 3: more to sports. It seems like they don't have a collective.

887
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 3: They haven't done very well and being able to kind

888
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:54,400
Speaker 3: of build that up if they're I guess alumni and

889
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 3: fan base is so robust and they can complain about

890
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 3: the move to the Big Ten. Why can't they stop

891
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,839
Speaker 3: bitching and why can't they step up and support their

892
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 3: sports programs?

893
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 10: Well, I mean, I think it goes first of all,

894
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 10: UCLA hoops is doing fine, right, Mick Cronin and men's basketball,

895
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,720
Speaker 10: which they are blue blood. There's no doubt the history

896
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 10: of John Wooden, the Jim Herrick Championship. Mick Cronan's doing great.

897
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,879
Speaker 10: He doesn't have a problem raising money for NIL and

898
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,760
Speaker 10: he is the best, one of the best college coaches

899
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 10: on the West Coast in any sport. So he's been

900
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 10: able to transcend the athletic departments in aptitude. The football

901
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 10: program has not. And you're right, Brady, they have a

902
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 10: big earner in their football program, and yet they don't

903
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 10: know how to utilize it and how to capitalize on it.

904
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 10: And that's well, It's been a long time thing at UCLA.

905
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 10: Even when I was younger, the UCLA mantra was look

906
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 10: at how many championships we have in all these sports,

907
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 10: you know, high jump, women's volleyball, you know, all this

908
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 10: different stuff, which is great, But all of those sports

909
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 10: exist because of your football program.

910
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 4: All of those.

911
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:19,280
Speaker 10: Sports exist because football makes money and funds everything else.

912
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 10: So show special attention to the football program. If you're

913
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 10: playing football at UCLA, because of the pecking order of

914
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 10: the world of athletics and who makes money, you should

915
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 10: probably feel a little bit more important than the women's

916
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 10: softball team, which is just the softball team, because they

917
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 10: don't play men's softball, so why don't they? And that's

918
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 10: always been a problem.

919
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 4: There.

920
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 10: The other problem, and I had a big thing on

921
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 10: the show yesterday about it, is their stadium. I mean

922
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 10: just the Rose Bowl is empty. Big stadium is.

923
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 4: Not Rosel Petros. It's so I mean, credible.

924
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 3: Well, you're right, it's a great the parking lot that

925
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 3: surrounds it.

926
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 4: Have I ever told you this story, by the way, No, My.

927
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 3: Sister used to tell me she always used to go

928
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 3: run the Rose Bowl people. Yeah, well exactly, but I thought,

929
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 3: like she got inside to the stadium and ran up

930
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 3: the stairs and ran exactly. I didn't know this, so

931
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 3: I go to the Rose Bowl and I'm like trying

932
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 3: to get inside. They're like, yeah, no, people just run outside.

933
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 3: I was like, in the parking lot. Yeah yeah, people

934
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 3: people just are running outside around the stadium.

935
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 4: This stupid.

936
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,319
Speaker 3: I just drove forty five minutes out of my way

937
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 3: to go run in a parking lot.

938
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 10: Well, it's not just the parking lot, it's the Historica

939
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 10: royos haicle.

940
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 4: Oh it's beautiful.

941
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 2: Uh.

942
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 10: The Rose Bull is a great surface, it's a great

943
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 10: college football venue, but it's a terrible optical thing for UCLA,

944
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,920
Speaker 10: and it's terrible for recruiting, and it's terrible for advertising,

945
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 10: and it's terrible for business that they just can't fill it.

946
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 4: They can't fill it halfway.

947
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,240
Speaker 10: The last guy and I used to get a sixty

948
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 10: eight thousand fan attendance pretty regularly throughout my childhood and

949
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 10: all that. Terry Donahue, Bob Toledo, Jim Mora with Brett Huntley.

950
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 4: I mean, they got.

951
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 10: People in there, but now that ship has sailed post pandemic,

952
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 10: the dream of getting sixty thousand people at the Rose

953
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 10: Bowl is over. They're on the quarter system. As a school,

954
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,279
Speaker 10: the kids, the kids need to be able to walk

955
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 10: over to the game agreed, and going to SOFI would

956
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 10: not solve that problem. The drive from Inglewood to Westwood

957
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:42,719
Speaker 10: is not much better than the drive from Westwood to Pasadena.

958
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 10: I mean it's really not, especially once you get into

959
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 10: Inglewood and try to get into that stadium and they wouldn't.

960
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 10: It doesn't solve the problem. Now they should. I know

961
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 10: that they're supposed to be historically a bigger program than

962
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 10: these teams I'm about to mention, but they should follow this.

963
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 10: I mean, they won't do it because it's a UC

964
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 10: system and everybody's too stupid and everybody sucks. But they

965
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 10: need to follow the formula of Houston, who was swallowed up.

966
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,439
Speaker 10: Their atmosphere was swallowed up and no one cared about

967
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 10: Houston football playing in the Astrodome. Then they move I

968
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 10: think it was to Robertson Stadium, closer to campus, case

969
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 10: Keenum and stuff like that. They have success, and now

970
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,879
Speaker 10: they've built another on campus stadium, and obviously they've moved

971
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 10: up into the Big twelve and Willie Fritz is there.

972
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 10: And then speaking of will and they've transformed the identity

973
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:36,319
Speaker 10: of their program with two lane played in the Superdome

974
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 10: from the seventies for like thirty plus years, swallowed up

975
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 10: by the Superdome. None of the kids that go to

976
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 10: Tulane in the Garden District in New Orleans would travel

977
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,240
Speaker 10: down and go to the games in the city. None

978
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,880
Speaker 10: of them. It was swallowed up. Their atmosphere was swallowed up.

979
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 10: They built an on campus stadium thirty thousand seats, two

980
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 10: lane out in fifteen minutes for games. Two lane football

981
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 10: is once again Willie Fritz showed up there, won one

982
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 10: hundred games. They beat USC in a Cotton Bowl, and

983
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 10: they just beat Duke at home in front of thirty

984
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 10: thousand two lane fans. Their program has been transferred to

985
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:22,800
Speaker 10: transformed the identity of it because they built an on campus,

986
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 10: smaller stadium and created some atmosphere. UCLA has an on

987
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 10: campus stadium that they could redo Drake. The kids could

988
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 10: walk over. Now you mentioned the Rose Bowl in its

989
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 10: history and all that, Brady Fine. Every other year they

990
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 10: and they still have a contract with the Rose Bowl

991
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 10: to like three thousand, the year three thousand, so play

992
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 10: USC every other year at the Rose Bowl. When Ohio

993
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 10: State comes out here to play play in the Rose Bowl, Michigan,

994
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 10: Penn State, whatever, Big ten Super King comes out, then fine,

995
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,839
Speaker 10: play play them the Rose Bowl, but the other five

996
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 10: or six home games, play them at home. Given a

997
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 10: shot in the arm for Westwood Village and the eateries

998
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 10: and all the stuff there that's been destroyed by the pandemic.

999
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,840
Speaker 10: It used to be a thriving university community. It's not

1000
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 10: so much anymore. And I think that would solve a

1001
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 10: lot of their problems. But they're too stupid. I mean,

1002
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 10: I didn't even know who they're going to hire to

1003
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 10: be the head coach. But I do feel like an

1004
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 10: on campus stadium like Houston has done, like Tulane has done,

1005
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,760
Speaker 10: would really and they have it there, would really solve

1006
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 10: a lot of UCLA's problems because I just in the

1007
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 10: modern times in Los Angeles, nobody's getting in the car

1008
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 10: to drive to these games. And it's a terrible look

1009
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,800
Speaker 10: for their program that there's literally like twelve thousand people

1010
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:53,000
Speaker 10: there in one hundred thousand seat stadium. It's just it's

1011
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 10: a very hard thing to overcome for them. So I

1012
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 10: think they need to do that, and it Roy Aikman

1013
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 10: has been saying they need to do it for years.

1014
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 10: It's not like a new idea, but now is the

1015
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 10: time to change the landscape, and I just don't think

1016
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 10: they have the leadership within the athletic department to do it.

1017
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,280
Speaker 10: A lot of people also blame the old chancellor at UCLA,

1018
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 10: Gene Block, who's.

1019
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 4: Not there anymore.

1020
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 10: They think of a new chancellor, Julio Frank I think

1021
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,959
Speaker 10: is his name, and Block, you know, kind of wasn't that.

1022
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 4: Into sports, and it shows anyway, that's the answer. You know.

1023
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 9: What's curious about what you said in terms of not

1024
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 9: being smart enough. UCLA basically says they take the players that,

1025
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 9: uh well, would make it into USC. And that's that's

1026
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 9: what separates the two.

1027
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:42,239
Speaker 5: You know.

1028
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 9: They yeah, they don't. They don't want the guys that

1029
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 9: can make it into USC. They want the guys that

1030
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 9: can go to use that. I mean, that's always living

1031
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 9: out here. That's kind of like a running joke, Like

1032
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 9: that's like a running thing, like you guys won't take

1033
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 9: the best athletes.

1034
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 10: Yes, I mean I got into Berkeley, but probably wouldn't

1035
00:51:58,560 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 10: have got.

1036
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:00,720
Speaker 4: Into UCLA, which is crazy.

1037
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,879
Speaker 10: Yeah, which is ben Berkeley. I mean, they're they're very

1038
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 10: similar schools. But Berkeley's a pretty reputable academic institution, and

1039
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 10: you know, it's funny how Stanford like wouldn't even look

1040
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 10: at my transcript, and USC said it they had some

1041
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:19,839
Speaker 10: problems with it. At UCLA was like, no effing way,

1042
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,839
Speaker 10: that's crazy. Yeah, it is interesting. You know, that's kind

1043
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 10: of changed the academic part of it. I mean, Nico

1044
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 10: Iamaliava got a couple fs at at Long Beach, Polly,

1045
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:30,840
Speaker 10: and he still ended up in college.

1046
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1047
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 5: Right.

1048
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 9: And speaking of games, your alma mater is taking on

1049
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 9: Michigan State. They're undefeated as well, but you and Oregon,

1050
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 9: you know, USC and Oregon are out to one to

1051
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 9: zero starts in the conference. How you feel about them

1052
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 9: taking on the Spartans of Sparta.

1053
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 10: Well, I saw, I mean the Trojans versus Spartans. I

1054
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 10: mean that is the Trojan War, that is Achilles and

1055
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 10: the Actor and Odisayas.

1056
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 4: You know, that's everybody a Paris hellative.

1057
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 5: I thought it was a.

1058
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 4: Od says Yeah.

1059
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 5: I thought it was Odecio. But I defer to you, obviously,

1060
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:08,800
Speaker 5: but I thought it was Well.

1061
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 10: I mean people mispronounced it, okay, I mean it's not

1062
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 10: I wouldn't really call it a mispronunciation. I mean people

1063
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 10: call it the Oracle at Delphi. It's Delphie, you know whatever.

1064
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 10: But yeah, I saw Michigan State to open and I

1065
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 10: love that head coach Jonathan Smith. Uh, it looks as

1066
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 10: if Aidan Chiles is playing like he was the number

1067
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:35,839
Speaker 10: one quarterback in the transfer portal two seasons ago. He

1068
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:41,319
Speaker 10: is really athletic, effortlessly flicks the ball out there. They

1069
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:46,360
Speaker 10: have a beautiful wide receiver in Nick marsh the big,

1070
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 10: strong wide receiver Detroit kid. He's a great athlete, you know,

1071
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:54,400
Speaker 10: draft pick type of receiver. And they've they've transferred in

1072
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 10: some other wide out so that he's not completely double

1073
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 10: bracketed or whatever throughout the game. So and they have

1074
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 10: a good looking tight end, Jack Velling. They have two

1075
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 10: serviceable backs, a big one Tullus who runs that big

1076
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,479
Speaker 10: stretch zone that Jonathan Smith likes. They've improved a lot

1077
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 10: on the offensive line, defensively, pass rush, secondary. I don't

1078
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 10: know if they're that good, but they're going to play

1079
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:21,600
Speaker 10: a lot of different guys and platoon and try to

1080
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:23,880
Speaker 10: figure it out. This will be a big test for

1081
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 10: USC because Jonathan Smith knows about the West Coast, he

1082
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:32,880
Speaker 10: knows about USC, he knows how to coach in that stadium.

1083
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,439
Speaker 10: He beat them there with Oregon State for the first

1084
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 10: time in decades. He went down there and beat him

1085
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,840
Speaker 10: with tight ends and with superior play calling and good balance.

1086
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 10: So I believe Michigan State will come with that. USC's

1087
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,720
Speaker 10: look okay, I mean Perdue moved the ball a lot.

1088
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,120
Speaker 10: I think it'll be a shootout type of game. But

1089
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:57,840
Speaker 10: USC's look great with a couple of wide receivers. Jacobe

1090
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 10: Lane and Lemon look spectacle acular, and the quarterback looks

1091
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 10: pretty good. But this will be a big test, and

1092
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:08,840
Speaker 10: I wouldn't be surprised if the Spartans.

1093
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 4: Don't win it.

1094
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 3: Petros, I want to transition. The NFL rams are two

1095
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 3: and oh, charges are two and oh. If you had

1096
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 3: to place money right now on which one of those

1097
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 3: teams making it in the playoffs making a deep run,

1098
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:20,480
Speaker 3: which one would it be.

1099
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 10: I mean, I think they both look like they could

1100
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 10: right at this point. I mean, the quarterback's playing well,

1101
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 10: justin Herbert looks great and but you know that.

1102
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there's gotta be one.

1103
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,920
Speaker 10: That's like the thing about Khalil Mack just like his

1104
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:35,279
Speaker 10: arm just fell off, right.

1105
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1106
00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:38,719
Speaker 10: And then and ray Sean Slater did an interview with

1107
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 10: us during camp and then like literally hours later, his

1108
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,839
Speaker 10: leg fell off. It's hard to not feel bad about that.

1109
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 4: You know.

1110
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,959
Speaker 10: You're like, hey, congrats on the contract we got ah.

1111
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, so sorry, Are you the musher?

1112
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 4: You the bad luck? Yeah? Yes, I don't know.

1113
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,359
Speaker 10: I mean every Dodger believer we talked to, the guy

1114
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 10: goes out there and gets his chest scooped out, you know.

1115
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 10: But so, I mean, their best defensive player and arguably

1116
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 10: their best offensive player are.

1117
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 4: Both out for the year. It looks like or for

1118
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 4: a law.

1119
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 10: I don't know what what they said about Khalil Mack,

1120
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 10: but that didn't look good. So that's that's not a

1121
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,279
Speaker 10: great thing for the Chargers. But Harbaugh is a good

1122
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 10: coach everywhere he's gone. Suddenly the team has balanced, Suddenly

1123
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 10: they they seem to be motivated in a different way.

1124
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 10: And even though McVeigh is just insufferable to listen to,

1125
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 10: for me, sounds like a guy doing an imitation at

1126
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 10: John Gruden, he's a really good coach and he.

1127
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 4: Just toards Planter Fasciatis.

1128
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 10: Yeah, having to have a little bit of a limp,

1129
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 10: you know, kind of a swagy lip guy.

1130
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 4: Shut up.

1131
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:51,359
Speaker 10: But he's a good coach man and the Rams and

1132
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:53,839
Speaker 10: they look really good. And Stafford, you know it look

1133
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,040
Speaker 10: turns out that he doesn't need a bachiotomy.

1134
00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:01,560
Speaker 4: His back is okay. So uh, that's a really good question.

1135
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:03,840
Speaker 10: I mean, I would say the Rams are more proven

1136
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 10: under McVeigh to make a deep playoff run. The next

1137
00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 10: time the Chargers make a d off deep playoff run

1138
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:13,239
Speaker 10: in my lifetime will be the first, I mean ever

1139
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 10: since they played in the Super Bowl against Steve Young.

1140
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 10: I mean, that's a last time the as Yeah, I

1141
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 10: mean that's the last time. I really the Chargers have

1142
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,080
Speaker 10: really threatened. I mean, Philip Rivers and Ladanian maybe so

1143
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:27,320
Speaker 10: the Chargers are the ones.

1144
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 4: It's more like Missouri show me.

1145
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 10: But but the Rams, they they they've had sustained success

1146
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 10: under McVeigh and Stafford and his annoying wife. And it's

1147
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 10: hard to pook My friend Pooka Nakua out of by

1148
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 10: U via Washington and committed to USC. So I'm sad

1149
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,440
Speaker 10: to say it's probably the Ramaalama ding Dongs Patra.

1150
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 2: Speaking of the Rams, I'm a rambassador. Are you h

00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 10: one or the leading rusher in the country.

Speaker 10: He's more machine than man now twisted and Ethan Yeah.

1168
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 10: Uh only five nine, but like a big stride. And

1169
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 10: all the mccowns have come through this coach. Jeff Trailer

1170
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,520
Speaker 10: at ut essays, Yeah, UTSA is really interesting. They have

1171
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,640
Speaker 10: Owen McCown, whose son of I believe he's Josh's son.

1172
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:46,920
Speaker 4: So he's the.

1173
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:51,520
Speaker 10: Quarterback and uh uh I love j Norvell. I've always

1174
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 10: loved Jay and he's a great guy in his uh.

1175
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 10: His quarterbacks Crowler Fowler Nicolosi is a guy who got

1176
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 10: in a fight with Shadour last year. He's one of

1177
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 10: the better quarterbacks in the Mountain West.

1178
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 2: And your favorite mascot up close and personal at Colorado State.

Speaker 10: what have you ever seen Cam the rams ball sack?

1181
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 4: No ja Oh, you could not believe it.

1182
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 2: It's auffel Bag.

1183
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 10: He's just out of the mountains, coming out of the

1184
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 10: Rocky Mountains, just ready for return up the sack tang.

1185
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,919
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I've learned something. I'm today years old.

1186
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 5: When I learned this, I knew this.

1187
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:36,280
Speaker 10: I remember doing a Colorado Colorado the what do they

1188
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 10: call it, the Rocky Mountain showdown at mile High and

1189
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 10: Ralphie the buffalo who is a female because they can't

1190
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,960
Speaker 10: a male buffalo. They could just bare I mean they

1191
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 10: can barely hold the woman back. And Ralphie does the run,

1192
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 10: which is one of the great things in college football

1193
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 10: and probably totally inhumane, but and and a little bit safer,

1194
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 10: a little safer at mile High because it's got a

1195
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:06,360
Speaker 10: thicker sideline than than fulsome field.

1196
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 4: It's pretty tight corners at fulsom field. When they run

1197
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 4: that buffalo.

1198
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 10: Uh, but they run the buffalo and then you know,

1199
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 10: Colorado State literally has like a goat and they're like,

1200
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,320
Speaker 10: you know, that's you know, like running with his belt,

1201
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 10: you know, and uh saw a pitcher saw them picture,

1202
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:36,920
Speaker 10: you know, and they call them Cam the Ram because

1203
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 10: Colorado State used to be something different, Colorado A and M.

1204
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 4: So cam c am you got that.

1205
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 10: I got a statue of it. It's like you you

1206
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 10: can't sit there. You can't have like a castrated goat.

1207
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 10: You know, you got to have its balls.

1208
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 4: You ain't come and.

1209
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 10: Especially since the other school in the state has like

1210
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 10: a female mascot.

1211
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 4: Really flaunted like the.

1212
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 5: Ram and the Beavers.

1213
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,960
Speaker 3: This giant ball by the way, on uh old Bobby Henry,

1214
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 3: he ran well versus am like everyone.

1215
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 4: It's not like I know he's stay in the car word.

1216
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 4: But he's a stud.

1217
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 10: No, he's gashing everybody for long, long runs. Uh he's

1218
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 10: a home you know, it's one thing. And he's a

1219
01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,200
Speaker 10: physical back and you know he gets his five yards.

1220
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 4: When you need him.

1221
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 10: But uh, he's he's you know, he's a home run

1222
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 10: hitting back, which is really what kind of stood out

1223
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 10: to me last year with Ashton Genty.

1224
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 8: Uh.

1225
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:41,960
Speaker 4: You know, he he was getting down the field and

1226
01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 4: he had a plan when he was down the field.

1227
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 5: But but yes, uh is a home run hitter he is.

1228
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:51,680
Speaker 3: Well, I've just provided a photo to you boys that's

1229
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,280
Speaker 3: more realistic the one LeVar sense not really.

1230
01:01:54,600 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 2: Oh god, oh my gosh, kid Petros, we uh, we

1231
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:03,919
Speaker 2: appreciate it and we'll do it again next week.

1232
01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 5: There he is.
