Aaron Rodgers season in Green Bay 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: has been compared to Michael Jordan's documentary The Last Dance. 25 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 1: It was Rogers and Vante Adams maybe riding off into 26 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: the sunset like MJ and Pippin did in their final 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: Bulls season. Of course, Chicago won the title that year. 28 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: Green Bay would take that, but if you watch the 29 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: last episode, you know the Bulls dynasty fell apart the 30 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: following year. Well, yesterday, Packer fans got a glimpse of 31 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: the future without Aaron Rodgers. Safe to say not pretty. 32 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: Second year player Jordan Love got the start. He struggled, 33 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 1: but to be fair, it was his first game. He'll 34 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: get better. But the game was a subtle reminder of 35 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: just how hard it will be to replace Aaron Rodgers, 36 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: whether it's next season or in three seasons. But it 37 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: was a wild week, and it's been a wild season 38 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: for Green Bay. You get the feeling that it will 39 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: make for a great documentary someday, maybe a thirty for thirty. 40 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: Everyone in Green Bay hopes the twenty twenty one portion 41 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: has a happy ending, even if the franchise future looks uncertain. 42 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: We'd love to give grades. After a draft, you give 43 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: a grade how your team did. Give a grade after 44 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: a game, you give a grade. I would say incomplete 45 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: for Jordan Love, and you could use that variety of ways. 46 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: He just looked timid, which is understandable. That's a tough 47 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: place to go and play. But I think what happened 48 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: yesterday is the focus was on Jordan Love, but the 49 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: spotlight still needs to be on Kansas City because Patrick 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: Mahomes had one hundred and sixty six yards midway through 51 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter passing Green Bay was out without a 52 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: couple of It's a starters on defense, No, Aaron Rodgers 53 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: Chiefs couldn't run the ball. So while we can focus 54 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: on Jordan Love, who we expected to struggle, Kansas City 55 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Chiefs didn't look good at all. If Rogers played yesterday, 56 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: I think we're talking about something different. But you're watching 57 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: Kansas City, you're watching Patrick Mahomes. Troy Aikman brought it up, 58 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 1: why aren't you taking the seven yard completion? It's right 59 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: there going for the home run. And it goes back 60 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: to the analogy I've used with Steph Curry. Hey, Steph 61 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: stopped taking threes. We want you to go inside. Yeah, 62 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: but I shoot threes. Patrick Mahomes. They stopped throwing the 63 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: home run ball. Take what they give you, and he 64 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: seems to struggle with that. But they held on for 65 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: dear life against a Green Bay team that could muster 66 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: very little offense there. I thought Jordan Love looked a 67 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: little bit better late in the game, but that's almost 68 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: that desperation time where Matt Lafloor probably said, just try 69 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: to make something happen. But he did look timid. I 70 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: was surprised they didn't run the ball more against Kansas City. 71 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: Maybe give him a little bit of a breather there. 72 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: And if I'm a Chiefs fan, I don't feel good 73 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: about that win at all. If I'm Green Bay, okay, 74 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: I didn't expect to win. You want to see a 75 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: glimpse of greatness. But you know, trying to figure out 76 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: this week for a Green Bay Packer fan pretty tough 77 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: because what Rogers said, now, you're kind of stuck in limbo. 78 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: This next game. You got Seattle coming up, and that'll 79 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: be at home. Is Jordan Love going to play there? 80 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: But look, Aaron Rodgers said what he said on Friday, 81 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: that's what he believes. I said this a couple I'm 82 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: trying to think what day we talked about this. I 83 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: brought it up that in his mind, he probably thought 84 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: that he was vaccinated in his mind, and that's what 85 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: turns out. In his mind, he thought that he was safe. Okay, 86 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: now I have to look at the football fallout. Whatever 87 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: you want to talk about with Aaron Rodgers, it's become political. 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to make it political. I make it 89 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: about football. Aaron Rodgers is still not there. I told you, 90 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: if somebody close to this said that they're not going 91 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: to suspend him, he's probably going to be fine. The 92 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: Packers are probably going to be fine. They were complicit 93 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: in this as well. Now let's look at just the 94 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: football portion of this, and that is it looks like 95 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: Jordan Love is going to play against Seattle. I don't 96 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: know if Seattle is going to get Odell Beckham, but 97 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: it looks like they're at the top of the list. 98 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: The Saints probably in there as well, maybe one other team. Also. 99 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: One thing to keep in mind when it comes to 100 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, we're going to find out by Tuesday at 101 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: four o'clock if he clears waivers and then he might 102 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: be able to pick the team that he wants. The 103 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: last two years of Odell Beckham's deal were taken off 104 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: the contract by the Browns, so he's a free agent 105 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: in March. If somebody gets him this week, then that 106 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: team will be in a position to give him a 107 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: long term contract, which is probably what's going to happen. 108 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: See the way he played it, and I thought that 109 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: this was what he was trying to do. Is I 110 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: want to get out of here. I want to go 111 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: to someplace else. I want to pick where I want 112 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: to go, and then I'm going to get a new contract. 113 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: That might be how this plays out for Odell Beckham. 114 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: He might be in uniform for Seattle in that game 115 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: against Green Bay if that's where he ends up. If 116 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: you would have said, you know, Kansas City was going 117 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: to win, but score thirteen points, I would have went, oh, 118 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: that's not good. The Buffalo Bills scoring six points in Jacksonville. Oh. 119 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys down thirty to nothing at home to Denver. Oh. 120 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL weekend and week out. Where you go, wait, 121 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: what's happening. That's the way it was yesterday. You know 122 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Losing the Giants didn't surprise me. You know, 123 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: the Giants are not bad, and they're at home, and 124 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: the Giants usually do this will They'll go on a 125 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: run about four or five games. With everything the Raiders 126 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: have been through, and you're going to travel cross country. 127 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised at that at all. I said, I 128 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: had a weird feeling about the Jags against the Bills. 129 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: They were fifteen and a half point underdogs and won 130 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: that game. I was shocked, shocked with what Denver did 131 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: in Dallas. We'll talk to Edward or Covers the Cowboys, 132 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: the Titans going to the Rams and you bring in 133 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, he scores a touchdown and you man handle 134 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: the Rams. That game decided in the first quarter back 135 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: to back interceptions with Matthew Stafford. And look at what 136 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: my Titans have done. They've defeated the Bills, Chiefs, Colts, 137 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: and Rams. Those are all playoff teamster Titan. Yes, that 138 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: was my dark course for the Super Bowl. And then, 139 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: of course, you know you got Derrick Henry going down. 140 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, I guess was deciding between dancing with the 141 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: Stars or dancing with the Titans, and he chose the 142 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: Titans here. Oh the NFL, it just keeps on giving. 143 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: By the way, I got updated Super Bowl odds. If 144 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: you're interested in that, Not that I can tell if 145 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: you're shaking your head yes or no, but I'll give 146 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: that to you coming up at a moment. Intelligence runs 147 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: in the family, Innovation runs in the family. Extraordinary runs 148 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: in the family. The twenty twenty one Mercedes bends range 149 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: of SUVs and it's every member waiting to him in press. 150 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: Learned more at MBUSA dot comversades bends the best or nothing. 151 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: According to Vegas Updated Super Bowl odds, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 152 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,239 Speaker 1: your favorites. Then it's the Buffalo Bills. Then it's the Rams, 153 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,479 Speaker 1: The Titans and the Cardinals are tied. Then it's the Packers, 154 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: Ravens and the Dallas Cowboys. The Chiefs are in there 155 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: after that, followed by the Chargers. We're at the halfway point, 156 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: and I don't know if anybody has a handle on 157 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: just how good or how bad somebody is. Because Jags 158 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: didn't think they were that good, but playing at home 159 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: and they have a pretty good defense, couldn't muster any 160 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: offense there. But this is another one of those games 161 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: that I should be looking at the Jags and giving 162 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: them credit, but I look at Buffalo because Buffalo is 163 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: so uneven that they have these moments where you go, 164 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: they're the best team in the AFC, and then there 165 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: are other moments where you go, they're so self reliant 166 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: on Josh Allen, they don't have a running game, and 167 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: that offense was anemic yesterday Dallas Cowboys. That's no excuse. 168 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, Denver gets rid of Von Miller and then 169 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: goes in there and shut you down. Titans going to LA. 170 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: I thought the Eagles were going to beat the Chargers 171 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: and nearly did. But that's a bigger picture story there 172 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: with what's going on with the Eagles here this next season, 173 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: because heads are probably gonna roll somewhere. Yes, McLevin, do 174 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 1: you buy any of the theory that the NFL has 175 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: figured out Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen just play your 176 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: safety's way back, take away the big play, and it's 177 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: harder for them to do their thing. Well, I don't 178 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: know if I look at Josh Allen same way I 179 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: do Patrick Mahomes, but I do think defense is like, 180 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: it just makes sense. This a quick strike offense all 181 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: I want to do is make sure I keep everything 182 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: in front because they're so used to getting on the 183 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: field and having a three minute drive and then getting 184 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: a touchdown. I want you to adapt. I want you 185 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: to play our style of football. If I'm the defense 186 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: and not everybody can do this. But you know I 187 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: don't have to blitz. I can have four guys rush. 188 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: I don't think the offensive line is still that good. 189 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: I want Patrick Mahomes to be patient, and I don't 190 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: know if he can be because of what has happened 191 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: before in his career. They have weapons, but there's still 192 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: some big question marks there. I came away thinking more 193 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: about Kansas City than I did Green Bay yesterday. Now 194 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: let me see Jordan Love play a home game and 195 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: see how he does, you know, getting that one game, 196 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to give you a referendum on 197 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Love. Is he going to be an NFL starter? 198 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: I think he has town, but I wanted to see 199 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: him be able to be a little bit more of 200 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback who was at Utah State. And we didn't 201 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: see that yesterday, but you know, they came in and 202 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: almost won that game. So I came away feeling a 203 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: little bit better about Green Bay than I did about 204 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City. All Right, we'll come up with the poll question. 205 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: We got our play of the day, stat of the 206 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: Day mclovin, and what are you gonna go with today? Okay, 207 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna go start with worst loss and we'll include 208 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: college football to put it the Michigan State Spartans, Lucuperdue, 209 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: Wake Forest loses their undefeated season a heartbreak in North Carolina, 210 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: The Bills, the aforementioned Bills, the Cowboys. Now here's I 211 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: wonder if you put these two teams on the polls, 212 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: the Rams and the forty nine ers. I'm not going 213 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: to put the Niners on there. The Rams, I would 214 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: put them on there because they're one of the top 215 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: four Super Bowl teams. The Cowboys, to me, was the 216 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: most shocking. I don't know if people will view it 217 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: that way. They'll probably look at the Bills losing at 218 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: Jack Bills. That's one of the biggest road favorite teams 219 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to lose in NFL history. Wake Forest. I'm not surprised 220 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: Michigan State Perdue does this. I'm not surprised at Michigan State, 221 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: so I would say it's either the Bills or the Cowboys. 222 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: I was surprised at the Cowboys. I was shocked because 223 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: I kept thinking, wait, you're getting shut out at home. 224 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. The Patriots are on the heels 225 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills. And we might not look at how, 226 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: you know, like how the Patriots look aesthetically, but they're 227 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: still the Patriots. They got a good quarterback, they have 228 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: a good defense, good secondary, and you got Bill Belichick. 229 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: I think they're a playoff team. Thought that at the 230 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: beginning of the year. They've been uneven as well. Buffalo 231 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 1: can't afford to be slipping up with games like this. 232 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: Dallas is in a bad division. They could afford a loss, 233 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: but you know it's one of those Is this a 234 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: good loss for Dallas? We'll talk to you Ed Worder 235 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: about that. Where you get that oh hey, we wanna 236 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: you know, you get that reminder of, hey, you're not 237 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: as good as you think you are, as good as 238 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: your record is. What else do you have? Mclovin. Okay, uh, 239 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: this is an odd pole. You might find it odd, 240 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 1: But who is leading the handsome coaching power rankings? Cliff Kingsberry, 241 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: Sean McVay, Matt Lafloor. And this is a polarizing one. 242 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: But Kyle Shanahan, I think he's a pretty good looking man. 243 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: But is it possible that Cliff Kingsberry is all that 244 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: and more? After the Cardinals won with Culpacoy. I'm gonna 245 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: hold off on answering that question for maybe another week 246 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: or another year, or when I'm returning photos that I 247 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: should put up on the website. I don't think we're 248 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: that desperate on a Monday, after what we had yesterday 249 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: to be discussing the handsome head coaching rankings right now. 250 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: But I do appreciate you bringing that to my attention. Yes, 251 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: there are some stories though that are just too important. 252 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: You mean that it's too important, Yeah, oh it is. 253 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: I'll go Cliff Kingsbury all day, you know, especially when 254 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: the sun is on him, you know San Francisco. Oh, 255 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: he's got a nice tan, Yes he does. I like 256 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: how he got into it with one of the guys 257 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: on the forty nine ers, like they were trash talking 258 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: on the sidelines, Like, oh boy, yes, Paul, by the way, 259 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: coaches trash talking. Nobody's safer than a coach. You can't 260 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: hit him. He's like, he's like if you had a 261 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: guard bearer, you know Pete Carroll should be on the 262 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: handsome coach thing. If you think about it, looks to 263 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: age ratio. He's seventy years old, Dan, he looks really good. Yeah, 264 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: he does. Just saying the ratio. Let's take a break 265 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: here and we'll come up with our play of the day. 266 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: Shouldn't be underappreciated though. Matt Laflour kind of taking some 267 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: of the slings and arrows for Jordan Love yesterday. That's 268 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: also very appealing. It really makes him more handsome. We'll 269 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: check in with the Cowboys coming up. Glad you're part 270 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: of the program. Hope you're still part of the program 271 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: after those last three minutes.

Today, 301 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: here is Mike McCarthy, the Cowboys coach, after being embarrassed 302 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: at home against the Denver Broncos. Frankly, we're out coach, 303 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: We're outplayed all the way through. So this first time, 304 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: I felt clearly our energy didn't exceed our opponent, and 305 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: that's disappointing. Let's bring an Edwarder who covers the Cowboys 306 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: ESPN NFL reporter. What's your reaction to that, Ed? Yeah, 307 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: I think good morning, Dan. I think you know, as 308 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott once said, the Cowboys were probably guilty of 309 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: sniffing themselves going into this game. I mean, I think 310 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: they had every right to feel confident. They were playing 311 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: at home, they had a six game winning streak, Dak 312 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: Prescott was returning, they were averaging forty points a game 313 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: at home. You know, they're playing a Broncos team that's 314 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: lost four out of five. They hadn't had a single 315 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: win against the quality opponent all year, and you know 316 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: they're coming off a week in which they're going through 317 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: the upheaval of wondering if the front office through their 318 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: season away because the new GM they're George Peyton traded 319 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: Von Miller, the greatest defensive player in franchise history, and 320 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: so there were all kinds of questions about the Broncos 321 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: and very few about the Cowboys. And then Dak Prescott 322 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: came out and had one of the worst games of 323 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: his career. His completion percentage was the world. He came 324 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: in as leading the NFL and completion percentage. This was 325 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: the lowest completion percentage game he had since he was 326 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: a rookie against the Giants in a game that ended 327 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: an eleven game winning streak, and what he did yesterday 328 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: ended a six game winning streak. Does you know sometimes 329 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 1: we look at a loss and it's a standalone loss, 330 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: but are there things there? And you're playing in an 331 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: easy division or an easier division, and I don't know 332 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: if there's that there's no sense of urgency here. But 333 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: is this an aberration or do you think there's something 334 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: a little more to this? Yeah, I think I think 335 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: until proven otherwise, it's an aberration. But they still have 336 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: to prove that this is a standalone bad performance and 337 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: ugly loss. It's up to them to demonstrate that we 338 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: reserve the right to reevaluate and change our opinion. Right now, 339 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: I still think I went into the game thinking the 340 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys are one of the best teams in the NFC. 341 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: I still think they're one of the best teams in 342 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: the league. But if they go do this this weekend 343 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: against the Falcons in a game that's going to mean 344 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: an awful lot to the defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, who 345 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: got fired there last year as a head coach, then 346 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: I'm might have a different opinion as what this team's 347 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: capable of. But right now I still think they're a 348 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: legitimate Super Bowl contender. When did you realize it was 349 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: not going to be downlass this day? Well, I thought 350 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: it was an odd decision. You know, we've seen Mike 351 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 1: McCarthy follow the analytics and be very averse to field goals, 352 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: and he didn't take one on either of their first 353 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: two possessions, which the Broncos interpreted as they took offense 354 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: to it. They thought it was arrogance on the part 355 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys, And you know, Teddy Bridgewater and all 356 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: the other players that you spoke to after the game 357 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: made the same point that that motivated us. We were 358 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: pretty upset by that, and they did score ten points 359 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: immediately after. The Cowboys failed on fourth down what four 360 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: different times in the game, the most in twenty years 361 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: that they took that chance. Sometimes they were forced into it, 362 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: but you know, I just think it was a bad 363 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: day from and there were a lot of weird things 364 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: that happened in the game to their detriment. I mean, 365 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: they start the game with a fifty four yard kickoff 366 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: turn by Tony Pollard, so they have they're on the 367 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: Broncos side of the field to start the game, and 368 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: they don't score with it, and you know, then they 369 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: get an interception by Jordan Lewis as negated by a 370 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs penalty, and then they have the block kick 371 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: to start the second half and the Broncos end of 372 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: the field and they don't get the ball in a 373 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: situation that almost never happens. I mean, the rookie Nashon 374 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: Wright is kind of the modern day Leon Lett for 375 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: touching a ball that could have been the Cowboys if 376 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: they just let it alone. And you can't really expect 377 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: a rookie to know that and make that decision when 378 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: the ball bounces up in his face. He doesn't know 379 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: where he is relative to the lion of scrimmage. I 380 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: totally get that. But that was just a you know, 381 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: a confluence of odd things that happened, and they didn't 382 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: benefit from any of them, and so you kind of 383 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: got the sense it was that kind of day. I 384 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: would say, relative to the bite you play to open 385 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: the press conferenation or Dak Prescott he said something similar 386 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: in that, you know, hey, sometimes you come off a 387 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: win like we had in Minnesota for your backup quarterback, 388 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: you think you can just roll out there and get 389 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: it done. And so I think that tells you everything 390 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: about the level of overconfidence so that they had, and 391 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: you know, it seemed to me they cared a lot 392 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: more about playing well in the last five minutes when 393 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: they were trying to avoid the shutout than they did 394 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: when they were in the previous fifty five minutes where 395 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: they might have been trying to win the game. Can 396 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: Dallas out coach other teams, I don't know. I think, 397 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, I think Mike McCarthy is questionable in terms 398 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: of some of the decisions he makes in terms of 399 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: game management. I think, you know, Kellen Moore, the offensive 400 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: coordinators demonstrated that he's really create a play caller and 401 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: knows how to use their personality, create favorable matchups, and 402 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: stay for Dan Quinn, you know, I think he's taken 403 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: the worst defense in franchise history and turned it into 404 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: something really at least average. Kind of the Kansas City 405 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: Chief's philosophy when you know they were been winning the 406 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: last three years. Be great on offense, be average on defense, 407 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: take the ball away, create some short fields and extra possessions, 408 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: which which brings me to this point. Dan. You know, 409 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: they went they had ten straight game where they created 410 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: multiple turnovers. In the last two weeks, they've created no 411 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: turnovers on defense, and they scored twenty points one week 412 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: and sixteen points the next week. Where do you think 413 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: the Cowboys rank in the NFC hierarchy. I tend to 414 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: think they're probably not as good as the Rams, and 415 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: they'll get to play the Cardinals, so we'll see that 416 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: matchup there. I don't think they're probably as good as 417 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. I covered the Cardinals at Tennessee, and I 418 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: thought they were really impressive in the best game i'd 419 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: seen Tyler Murray play live. I think they're probably you know, 420 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: somewhere around where the Packers are. They're probably third or fourth. 421 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: But one interesting thing, you know, you talked about this 422 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: Benn aberration, and again I think it is the one 423 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: interesting thing to watch is the fact that Vic Fangio 424 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 1: and Brandon Staley, the Chargers first year head coach, they 425 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: coached together on defense in Denver until Staley got the job, 426 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: and they have a shared defensive philosophy. And yesterday Fangio said, 427 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: I just don't think a lot of teams played the 428 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys the right way, and so that bears watching from 429 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: the standpoint of the Cowboys. One when they played the 430 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: Chargers at Sandy or at Los Angeles in the second 431 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: week of the season, if they only scored twenty points, 432 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: that was the fewest points they'd scored in any Dak 433 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: Prescott start. And then yesterday, facing many of the same 434 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: defensive challenges from Fangio, they only scored sixteen points. So 435 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: maybe there is something of a blueprint out there. Dak 436 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: when asked about it after the games, that I hope 437 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: everybody you know plays us the way these two teams 438 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 1: have played us. But the facts speak for themselves. They 439 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: didn't handle, you know, the coverages being disguised, they didn't 440 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: get blitzed. They make a living off getting blitz and 441 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: making big plays. They took that away from the Cowboys. 442 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: And again Dak had a really bad day throwing the football, 443 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: and he didn't get help from his receivers who dropped 444 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: a lot of past So what is that blueprint? The 445 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 1: blueprint is play two high safeties. Changed the look at 446 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: the right in appreciate when he's making his pre snappered 447 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage. Get four man pressure, don't 448 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: blitz the Ronco's blitz. It was the fewest blitzes that 449 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: Dak had seen. All you already been one of the 450 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: most blitz quarterbacks in the NFL. So get pressure with 451 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: four and disguise coverages, play coverage and take away the 452 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: big play. That seems to be what the Chargers who 453 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: had success even though they lost the game, and what 454 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: Vic Fangio did yesterday. Great to talk to you is 455 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 1: always ed Thank you, thanks for the invite. Dan clean 456 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 1: the desk, will you? Oh no? Never adding more chatskis 457 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,959 Speaker 1: here not less at Edward or ESPN NFL reporter covering 458 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Yeah, you're starting to see defenses because all 459 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: the rules have really been predicated on, let's get more offense. 460 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: Let's take away as much as we can from the 461 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: defense any advantage that they have. Can't put your hands 462 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 1: on somebody five yards down the field. It just feels like, 463 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: how do we get more offense? Because more offense brings 464 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: more excitement, more fantasy points, and these defenses are thinking, Okay, 465 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: what do we do? How do we counteract this? And 466 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: it's starting with the Kansas City Chiefs. You know, keep 467 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: everything in front of you the best you can make. 468 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: Make these offenses work to get down the field. And 469 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: if that worked for Denver yesterday against Dallas, then teams 470 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: are going to try to employ this. You saw that 471 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: with Green Bay yesterday. Green Bay loose is one of 472 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: its defensive backs in the pregame, hurt his knee, and 473 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: it just felt like they did a really good good 474 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: job of containing. You know, as I once said many 475 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: times on Sports Center, you can't stop. You can only 476 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: hope to contain. That's what my offer, that's what my 477 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: defensive philosophy would be when I go against these offenses. 478 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: Can't stop you, I can hope to contain you. All right, 479 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: McLevin poll question we went with is loss. The weekend 480 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: choice Star Michigan State, Wake Forest Cowboys Bills and we 481 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: put the Rams on there. I feel like maybe the 482 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: fifth option. Yeah, I think it's a It's a bad 483 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: loss because it's at home. You need these wins because 484 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: you know, Seattle's without Russell Wilson, the Niners lost in Arizona, 485 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: keeps winning, and you know, you just want that home 486 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: field advantage best you can. And it's games like this. 487 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: We might look back on Buffalo at the end of 488 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: the year and go, remember when they lost to Jacksonville 489 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: or when green Bay was out with out Aaron Rodgers 490 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: having that home field advantage. You know, the guy who 491 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: benefited probably the most from this past weekend, it's Tom Brady. 492 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: Brady didn't play and as far as MVP candidates, they 493 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: all lost. You know, Brady is just sort of going, 494 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: all right, let me survey the situation here. Derrick Henry's out, 495 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen didn't play well, Jack Prescott didn't play well. 496 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes didn't play well. Rogers is out, Tom Brady's 497 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: probably gone. I like my chances here second half of 498 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, mcluvit Lamar Jackson won again. I was 499 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: thinking it's hard to give him a second MVP, right, 500 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 1: like because the narrative nature of the award. Well, he's 501 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 1: got a better chance than Aaron Rodgers does. I think 502 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: after what happened this past week, I would say Aaron 503 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: Rodgers not winning another MVP, not anytime soon. But Lamar Jackson. 504 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: I watched that game, and you just go I thought 505 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: the Vikings were going to win that game. Going in 506 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: to that game, I thought the Vikings would win, and 507 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: for no other reason than the Vikings shouldn't win this 508 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: game or the Ravens should. And then you're just watching 509 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson still does more, it feels like, with 510 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: less than any other quarterback. Now I could put Josh 511 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Allen in there as well at times, but Lamar Jackson 512 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: still makes things happen. And you've got that weapon. You know, 513 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: when they would cut away to Justin Tucker, you just know, 514 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: just just get me close. I mean, they're they're just waiting. 515 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: It's like, all right, how far do we need to get? Justin? 516 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: Give me ten yards more? Okay, all right, we'll get it. 517 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: And then you know that he's gonna give you the 518 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: game winner. We'll get phone calls here best and worst 519 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: to the weekend. What you saw that you liked you 520 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: didn't like? Jeremy and Texas leads us off this morning. Jeremy, 521 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: best and worst to the weekend? All right, guys, best 522 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: of the weekends to Cleveland Browns just destroying the Cincinnati 523 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: Bengals without Obj awesome side to see worst. I'd have 524 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: to say this with my Cowboys going down fourteen rush 525 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: attempts between Pollard and Zeke. They don't use Pollard enough. 526 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: They used him in the beginning of the season. All 527 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: of a sudden they just got rid of him and 528 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott going for thirty nine attempts. I mean, I 529 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: get it, you're behind, but come on, utilize your rush, 530 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,959 Speaker 1: utilize your speed and Pollard stop depending on Zeke. You 531 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: know the what's that adage? The definition of visanity is 532 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: doing the same thing over and over again expecting a 533 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: different result. Yea, you know they gotta get it figured out, 534 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: all right, Jeremy. Yeah, I watched the Browns against the 535 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: Bengals because I was curious, does Baker Mayfield try to 536 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: do too much? Does he try to go toe to 537 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: toe with Joe Burrow? But you know, give the Cleveland 538 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: Browns a lot of credit because they play great football 539 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: all the way around. Here's Baker Mayfield after the win. 540 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm worried about the guys in our locker room. I'm 541 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: proud of these guys, how they were able to focus 542 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: up despite all the that was going on this week, 543 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: and how they were able to do their job. So 544 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: that's why I appreciate this group of guys and the 545 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: staff that we have. So we're gonna, you know, see 546 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: if we can build on it and continue to get better. 547 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: Is an addition by subtraction. As crazy as it's going 548 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: to sound, I think it is. And I've said this 549 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: for a long time about Odell Beckham and Baker Mayfield. Young, 550 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: impressionable Odell comes in. I want to make sure that 551 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: I placade him. I go to him, getting him his touches. Well, 552 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: the defense knows this, coaches know that they can see that, 553 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: feel that, And what Baker did yesterday he had fourteen completions, 554 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: eight different receivers with only one having three catches. Nick 555 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: Chubb runs for one thirty seven. I mean that's the 556 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: style of offense they are. It's run the football, set 557 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: up play action for Baker. Don't try to do much, 558 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: you know, and you saw that yesterday. I mean, that's 559 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: an impressive win. There's still a good team bordering on 560 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: being a very good team. Yeah, Paul. The Cleveland defense 561 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: hit Joe Borrow twelve times. That's the most by any 562 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: defense on any quarterback in the league this year, twelve 563 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: twelve hits. Then they had the pick pick six as well, 564 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: which I mean that really set the tone for the game, 565 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: because you know, the Bengals are going down the field 566 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: and you're thinking, all right, let's see if the Bengals 567 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: are for real a good to a lead AFC team, 568 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: and they're not. They're going to be a spoiler type team. 569 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: It's just that they're not going to be consistent enough 570 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs in my opinion. You know, the 571 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: Steelers got a game tonight against the Bears. You know, 572 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: the Ravens win, the Browns win. You know, Bengals got 573 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: a game at home. You gotta win these games. It's 574 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,239 Speaker 1: like the Rams last night. You can't afford to let 575 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: those games slip away. Win those games. Uh, Let's see 576 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: who else do we have? Ed in Texas? Hey Edward's 577 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: on your mind today? Best and worst of the weekend? Hey, Dan, 578 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: how are you good, sir?

Okay, my best is Texas lost, 581 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: and that's always a good thing because they're so privileged. 582 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: And my bestness is that USC lost, and uh Coach 583 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: Herman and Coach Rodriguez are to be because your boy 584 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: Sean Salisbury came on and bad mouth I'll pass so 585 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: and they're not even going to qualify for a game, 586 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,479 Speaker 1: for a bowl game, So you need to tell him 587 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: before he goes running his mouth to make sure you 588 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: got something to back it up. All right, thank you, Edward. 589 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: I'll pass that alone. I didn't know that I have 590 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: to be Seawan Salisbury's conscience. Hangg Edward. Yes he did it, 591 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: Edward scissor hands laying up John Salisbury. I like the 592 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: two of the best things that happened this weekend were 593 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: people losing. It is interesting to get in the minds 594 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,959 Speaker 1: of fans that what they really love, like what's important? 595 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: You know, Hey, Texas lost, USC lost.

Takes time 654 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: being I'm gonna build that chemistry obviously some him and 655 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 1: Hearn have very well. They've been together for a while, 656 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's chemistry wasn't there yet, but it's something 657 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: that you know, I think it was able to progress 658 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 1: as a game went on. We were talking through some 659 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: things and just getting on the same page. I think 660 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: it progresses a game went on. I'm gonna put a 661 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: lot of this on Matt la floor. You knew Kansas 662 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: City was going to blitz, and it felt like you 663 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: didn't do what you needed to do against that blitz. 664 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: I thought you could have run the ball a little 665 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: bit more. But you know, Jones had twelve carries. You 666 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: know this is a game you could have won. I 667 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 1: didn't expect you to. But I still come away with 668 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 1: not as much criticism towards Jordan Love as I do 669 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. You barely beat Green Bay with 670 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: basically a rookie quarterback at home and a green Bay 671 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: defense that had lost a couple of starters. That to 672 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: me is a bigger picture here. I expect Green Bay 673 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: to still be great when Aaron Rodgers comes back. I 674 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 1: don't know if I can say the same about Kansas 675 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: City because right now they feel non threatening in a 676 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: bigger picture, and I didn't think that I would say 677 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: that this year. You just want your defense to be 678 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: good enough. You know, Dallas Cowboys have looked at this blueprint. 679 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: Let's just have an unbelievable offense and then let's just 680 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: try to get by with our defense. Well, Dallas has 681 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: had a really good defense, but now when you don't 682 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 1: get takeaways, now what that offense has to produce. And 683 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 1: that offense did not produce yesterday and they got blown out. 684 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: Kansas City have an unbelievable offense and a good enough 685 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 1: defense to keep us in games. Well, defense did pretty 686 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: well yesterday against Jordan Love. The offense did not. And 687 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: I think that's a bigger picture here as we move 688 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: into the second half of the season. Jeff and Detroit 689 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: joins us. Good morning, Jeff, best and worst of the weekend? 690 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: What a thought Dawn one time? But shot, well, good 691 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,240 Speaker 1: morning to you fellas. Listen. Did anything happen this weekend? 692 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,800 Speaker 1: My god, what a time to be in the NFL. 693 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 1: My plasure to you is this. Now that's so much 694 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: fens of all. Best is gonna be I'm sorry about 695 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 1: the band again. Best is gonna be um Michigan State, 696 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: move them because that shows the fluke against from Michigan. 697 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 1: Worst is gonna be just Aaron Rodgers. Now I'm sorry, 698 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: it's just Aaron Rodgers. And I guess my question for you, 699 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: Dan is this this past weekend, a lot of things 700 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: took place. If you were doing the Dan Patrick because 701 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: what would be the number one story that you would 702 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: calling from page What would be Dan Patrick's Air Live. Um, 703 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: I would probably have the Cowboys or Bills there. But 704 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 1: thank you, Jim, thank you for the phone call. Yeah, 705 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: the Aaron Rodgers story happened on Friday, and it didn't 706 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 1: affect what happened over the weekend. He wasn't gonna play it. 707 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: Just he gave you his thoughts when he went on 708 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: Pat McAfee's show. All Right, he took the heat and 709 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 1: you know he wanted to be the victim. But I 710 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: have to look at the football fall out of this. 711 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: That's which most hortant to me and what I present 712 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: to this audience. What does the football fallout? We can 713 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,720 Speaker 1: dive into this and you know, discuss where you stand 714 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: on the vaccine or you know, what his mindset was, 715 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: or any of those things, but I have to concentrate 716 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: on the football side of this. Aaron Rodgers, who I 717 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: have liked as a guest, played golf with him before, 718 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: but when it comes to this, we disagree. Okay, I 719 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: get to show up for work every day. He couldn't 720 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 1: show up for work on Sunday. His thoughts my thoughts. Okay, 721 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: Now I got to look at the football side of 722 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: this thing, and that's where I looked at Jordan Love. 723 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: What's the fallout? Is their long term fallout? What happens 724 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: to the Packers? Were they complicit? Did they cover this up? 725 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 1: Will they resign him? Does he want to stay? Does 726 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: he appreciate what the you know the Packers? Did you 727 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: know the NFL is going to ask for the last 728 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: thirty days they can ask for thirty days of in 729 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: house video. I don't know if the Packers protect him. 730 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if he gets fined, Does he get suspended, 731 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: that's the football side of this. Is he going to 732 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: be there for the game against Seattle? That's the football 733 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: side of this. Do they get home field advantage? Does 734 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 1: this cost them home field advantage? That's the football side 735 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: of this. So if you're tuning in expecting me to 736 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 1: go on a rant one way or another about Aaron 737 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: Rodgers with Pat McAfee, it's not going to happen, all right, 738 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: because we don't change our minds in America when we 739 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: get into arguments. It's really and I'm not talking about 740 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,439 Speaker 1: sports arguments, but we probably don't change our minds there either. 741 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 1: But it feels like we're more apt to change our 742 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: minds with sports arguments than we are in real world topics. 743 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not here to spout, get on my soapbox 744 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: and say this is how we should feel, or how 745 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 1: you should feel, or this is what you should do. 746 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: I made a decision to do what was best for 747 00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 1: me and the people I work with, and I stay 748 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: and by that. Aaron did what he thought and he 749 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: is standing by that as well. Love to have him 750 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,439 Speaker 1: on if he wants to come on and talk. Sean 751 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: and Kansas joins us Hi Sean, Hey, guys, thanks for 752 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 1: taking my call again. Sure, I mean, being in Kansas, 753 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: the best has to be the win quote unquote yesterday, 754 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: even though Dan Sorenson is allowing a perfect QBR of 755 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty eight point three. UM, the worst 756 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: leads me into a question. The worst was Fritzie's Broncos 757 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: blowing up everybody's parlays and their fantasy football games. And 758 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: that just makes me wonder if the Chiefs should be 759 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: less afraid of Dallas in two weeks or more afraid 760 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: of Denver in a matter of months. Thank you Sean. 761 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: By the way, Tom, your Bronchos had a big win. Congratulations. 762 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 1: I felt really good about it. I was shocked with 763 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 1: what I was saying with all the stops on fourth 764 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: down exciting day yesterday. Would you have warned the Bronchos 765 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: gear today if they lost? Probably not. Probably I like 766 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 1: to wear it's when they win. And I was all 767 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: dressed up in my Bronco orange and blue yesterday, as 768 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 1: were many fans, by the way at at and T. 769 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw that Broncos like took 770 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 1: over at and T Stadium yesterday, you still feel good 771 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: about your Broncos being a playoff team. I still have 772 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 1: a lot to see just it, but that was impressive 773 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: and I'd like to think it wasn't a complete aberration 774 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 1: for Dallas that Denver showed what they can what they 775 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:27,360 Speaker 1: can do. Thank you, John Sean and Oregon joins us 776 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: Hi Sean, what's on your mind today, Dan, I'm gonna 777 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: go best at the weekend was an extra hour of 778 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: sleep for the daylight savings and worse than the weekend, 779 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say McCarthy and the Cowboys. Now, hang on 780 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: a second. I'm gonna change my mind. I'm gonna say 781 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: General manager Neil Oldshay under investigation. I guess he's been 782 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 1: pretty hard on people there at the Rose Garden and 783 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: not being a real cool guy. Yeah. Cool how you 784 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: dress or how you wear your hair. Cool is how 785 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: you conduct yourselves and how you treat others around you. Well, 786 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: NBA will be doing an investigation, and they got a 787 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: few teams to investigate. It feels like this is why 788 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 1: you have commissioners and this is what their job is. 789 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: All Right, we'll talk to Carson. Palmer will join us 790 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 1: a little bit later on, as he always does every Monday. 791 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 1: We'll get more phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. Mclevan, 792 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: would you update the poll results from the first time? Okay, 793 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: worst weekend, worst loss of the weekend. Buffalo Bills are 794 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: number one, then Michigan State, then Dallas, then the Rams, 795 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: and no one voted for wake Forest. Okay. I didn't 796 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: think Lake Forest losing was going to be a big surprise. 797 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: Michigan State against Purdue. Did not think that because after 798 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 1: a big win and then you have a loss and 799 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,760 Speaker 1: Purdue does this. That's why they're known as the spoiler Makers. 800 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: They've done that twice already this year. One hour of 801 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 1: the Books, two more to go on this Monday. More 802 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: phone calls coming up here, dan Patrick Shaw
