Fritzie is on fire, telling us 0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:37.440 stories about his days in Los Angeles. You're ready to go? Yes, 0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:39.800 I'm feeling it. I'm feeling my oats right now. I 0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:41.680 think you might have used up all your good stuff 0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:44.080 prior to the start of the All right, that's it 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:47.760 doesn't count. Yes, great dinner last night, once again, team 0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.960 building dinner last night, a great restaurant. And then the 0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:54.400 boys got on their little scooters and I just said, 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.840 you've had a couple of drinks here, don't get on 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.920 those damn scooters and they take off into the night. 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:02.200 I'm thinking that might be the last time I see 0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:05.479 Seaton like all right, And so I saw him this morning, 0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:07.399 and I'm like, all right, you okay, goes yeah, yeah, 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.320 yeah yeah, PAULI. They look like the least threatening street 0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:13.520 gang ever. It was like khaki pants and plaid shirts 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:15.880 blown in a little much fun and they're little scooters 0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:20.600 as they menaces to society. So much fun. All righty, 0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:23.240 come on in, stay a while. We got a poll question, 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:25.880 Play of the day, stat of the Day. This program 0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:28.199 brought to you by the great folks at Mercedes Benz 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:32.600 the twenty one Mercedes Benz range of SUVs. Every member 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:35.679 is waiting to impress. Learn more at mbusa dot com 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:39.480 or Sadies Bens the Best or Nothing. I mentioned the 0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.360 guest list here. The Texans have hired Lovey Smith as 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:45.520 their head coach. This didn't feel like, hey, we're all 0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:48.920 in on Lovey Smith. It might be we can't hire 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:52.200 Josh McCollen because he has no coaching experience at all. 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.080 Let's hire Lovey for a year and see how it goes. 0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:58.240 Saints promoted Dennis Allen to head coach. He had been 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:02.400 the defensive coordinator. So everybody has a coach right now. 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:04.920 And to start the offseason, we saw as many as 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.120 nine teams in the market for a new head coach, 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:12.160 but after yesterday, all positions have been filled. Both Smith 0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:16.760 and Allen have been head coaches before. Lovey was head 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.080 coach a couple of times. He went just eight and 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:24.240 twenty four. Allen had an opportunity with the Raiders, he 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:27.040 was eight and twenty eight with them, and some fans, 0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:31.720 some media members criticizing the new hires, and you know, 0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:35.960 it's not like they're upper echelon candidates. But Dennis Allen 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:38.440 or Lovey Smith, I don't know if they're destined for greatness. 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:41.640 Lovey got the Bears to a Super Bowl. But before 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:44.800 we go all in on these teams, did they really improve? 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.600 You might have a rebuilding year with New Orleans, as 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.919 strange as that may sound, but Dennis Allen had been there. 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:56.160 He filled in for Sean Payton when Sean got suspended. 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:59.240 So the surprise retirement and you're not quite sure who 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:01.440 you're going to bring in. I think people thought maybe 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:06.600 there's a chance for Byron Leftwich, maybe Eric Bianamy, maybe 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:09.680 Brian Flores, But as it turns out, it's Dennis sound 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.239 Not really inspiring hires by either one of these programs, 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:16.200 certainly with the Texans with Lovey Smith, he was the 0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:20.080 associate head coach there with David Cully. It just feels like, 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:22.760 all right, wi fire David Cully. If this is just 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.880 one more year where maybe Josh McCown joins the staff 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:30.840 and maybe gets some coaching experience here. But felt like 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:34.200 the Texans were leaning that way and they decided to 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.600 at the last minute pull the rip chord and bring 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:39.760 in Lovey Smith. Yes, Polly. Every time I look at 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:41.960 this Texans team and what a mess it's become. I 0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:44.440 think two years and a month ago, they're up twenty 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.280 one points on the Chiefs in an AFC playoff game. 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:53.240 It's unbelievable how Facets franchise could go to unthreatening tanking. Yeah, tanking. 0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:56.920 By the way, all of our in studio guests received 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:00.280 gift bags by Panini America. The official Trading cards DP 0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:04.960 show also link Soul Apparel lifestyle brand for any occasion 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.400 in M Drive, don't let h beat you re find 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.560 your prime with M Drive. All right, Fritzie, what's the 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:12.640 pull question today? All right? The first suggestion was Kyler 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.320 Murray dot dot dot wants out of Arizona, wants his 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:20.599 new deal now, all right, So he scrubbed all of 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:32.239 his social media yesterday and he's unfollowed the Cardinals. Oh no, yes, yes, yeah. 0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:34.799 This is like when your kids won't eat their vegetables. 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:36.800 You know, they stomp their feed and I'm not going 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:40.520 to all right, so you want a new contract here. 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.120 I don't think he wants out of Arizona, but maybe 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.840 if you send a little shiver down somebody's spine there 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.080 and uh, it feels like he went. You don't trade 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:54.719 quarterbacks in these situations. Young good quarterbacks don't get traded. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.240 And and Kyler Murray had a pretty good Pro Bowl, 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:00.840 probably would have been the m VP have they won 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:05.200 that game. But uh, the timing of this is surprising. 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.159 Of course Super Bowl week, so people looking for stories. 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.159 You're gonna run with it a little bit more. But 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:13.039 is this you know Vegas has odds Kyler Murray end 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:16.920 up with Buccaneers, Kyler Murray end up with the Broncos. 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:21.360 I'm thinking Kyler Murray ends up with the Cardinals. I think, 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:24.320 you know, hey, can I get a contract here? Oh? 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:28.000 Oh now you're happy? Now, now now you love us? No, 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.719 I'm gonna I'm gonna unfollow you, guys. I don't know 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.039 what that means. Can you imagine like you're some staffer, 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.040 You're some twenty four year old staff round the Cardinals 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.279 and you run down the hall to the GM's often 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.520 mister GM. I don't know what with a Steve Kaim, 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:43.520 mister k I don't want to tell you this unfollowed? 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:49.240 Oh no, who's unfollowed us? You know? Frank Caliendo? No, 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:55.840 it's Kyler Murray. Yes, Kyler Murray. I don't know. Does 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.120 he want out of Arizona or wants a new deal. 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:02.159 I'm gonna guess he probably wants a new deal. I'd 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.359 lean towards that, and you want to get it earlier 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:07.880 than later. I get them all right, So Chris collins 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:10.600 Worth will join us, Michael Urban, the playmaker, Rich Eisen, 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.760 and Barry Sanders. What else do you have? Tom tom 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.359 Brady says, you never say never. It's a Jim Gray 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:19.240 on their podcast about coming out of retirement. So hey, wait, wait, 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:22.760 I have to set it up by playing the Tom Brady. 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:25.440 That's what I say. You're a TV radio guy, that's 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.480 what you do, and what are you? I've just gotta 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.360 love for the ride. Okay. So here is Tom Brady 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:33.200 on his podcast that he tapes with Jim Gray every 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:38.040 Monday night he Let's Go podcast talking about retirement. Muhammad 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:42.080 Ali came back, Mike Tyson came back. So inevitably some 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:45.560 quarterbacks going to get hurt or not perform at the level. 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:48.640 And it's going to start in July and training camp. 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.040 It's going to go again in September and probably again 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:54.160 in October and November. How are you going to entertain 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:56.640 those thoughts? And would you ever consider that? You know, 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:58.800 I'm just gonna take things as they come, you know. 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:01.240 I think that's the best way to put it. And 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.560 I don't think anything never. You know, you never say never. 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.760 And you know, at the same time, I know that 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:13.360 I'm very I feel very good about my decisions. Okay. 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.560 I guess when you hear Tom say never, say never, 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:19.000 then you're like, okay, so you're saying there's a chance. 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:23.080 I'm guessing that in the back of his mind, or 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.760 when we get to July and August, when your body 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:29.080 tells you, hey, get ready for football, then he's probably 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:32.120 going to have those thoughts. But I'm gonna guess by 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:36.160 then he will have, you know, convinced himself that, look, 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.040 this is the best thing for me and my family 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.000 and not come back and play. Is Tampa Bay gonna 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:43.240 hold out? Hope you're gonna have Kyle Trask there? And 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.920 then all of a sudden Tom is hey, Tom, you 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:48.400 know on Jalimber up a little bit. The kid doesn't 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.120 look that good. Tom's going to come to the rescue again. 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:55.080 I don't see that. I don't see it. We got 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:57.600 of James Bond movie Never Say Never. That sounds like 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:00.320 something that there'll be a double O seven counting. Was 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.559 Sean Connery when he left being James Bond Double seven? 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.080 He said I can't do I'll never but he said 0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:08.920 he would never play the role again. Then when he 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.680 came back to do that h James Bond, they called 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.160 it never say Never again, which when Sean Connery came 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:16.120 back to the James Bond back to you, all right, 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.920 thank you. So their choices based on what we just heard, 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:24.440 Brady will play again, Brady won't play, maybe he won't play, 0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:27.920 maybe he'll play for Arizona. And then Kyler Murray goes 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:31.000 to Champa. Back here, I'll hang up and listen. Do 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:32.680 you want to get the limerick out of the way. 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:34.280 We could do that. I could give you you want 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:36.440 to save the Academy Award related to Paul? Is that 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:37.880 too much in one? Oh? No, no, you can give 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.600 me that one. Okay. With the Academy Award nominees announced today, 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:45.120 Who's your favorite? Oscar Oscar de la Renta strop dressed man, 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:50.120 Oscar Gamble, Oscar Hammerstein from Rogers and Hammerstein fame for 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:54.560 Oscar robertson the Big Oh you love him, Oscar the 0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:57.720 grout from Sesame Street, Oscar Wilde the poet from like 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:01.640 eighteen sixty three or something that's terrible? Is that terrible? Yeah, 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:04.439 Polly favorite Oscar. Call mclove and bring mclove and back 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.719 out of the day. Yes, it's the only time I'm 0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:09.600 miss him. When time gives a bad pole question, they're 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:13.880 gonna love these two. Okay, all right, here we go, 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.000 and we did something similar to this again. I hope 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:17.840 I'm not repurposing to it. What should be the cutoff 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.560 eight for wearing your favorite player's jersey or uniform in public? 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.760 We've done this before. Under forty forty to forty nine, 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.640 fifty to fifty nine, sixty to sixty nine, no age limit. 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:30.160 Where are your jersey? Yes, that's the question has to 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.080 be parsed because if you are a fan of a 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.440 team and you wear a jersey to a game, that 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:37.760 is any age counts. You're talking social, Like when you're 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:39.199 going out for a bite with your friends and you're 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:42.880 wearing your Nick Foles Eagles jersey and you're fifty six. Yeah, 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:45.520 you're at the restaurant with the boys and you're like, really, yeah, 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:47.280 going to a game, all bets are off. You wear 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.400 whatever you want. And how about this one? If you 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:52.360 were the road team before kickoff, would you call heads 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:56.160 or tails? And will that pole be exactly fifty fifty 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:57.800 as you think it would be, but not necessarily? Are 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:01.679 there any other options for heads? Till lands out of 0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:04.520 side like a Twilight Zone episode where it doesn't fall 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:08.480 either way? I was going through I was buying some 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:11.760 wine yesterday and I went through the U to the 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:15.280 teller and he goes, uh, credit or debit? And I 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:18.960 go yes, And he goes credit or debit? And I 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:24.000 go yes, good, No, is it credit or debit? And 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:26.880 then the woman behind me goes, is it like credit 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:33.480 or debit? I go yes. He still didn't understands with 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.160 him No, I didn't mean to, but it felt like 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:38.320 I was messing with him because he just said credit 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.360 or debit, and I go yes, and then he asked again, 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:45.000 and like I wasn't even thinking, and so I said, 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:47.400 I'm sorry credit. I don't even understand why they need 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:50.679 to know still the same card. Why do they need 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:52.400 to know whether it's credit or debit? I don't know. 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:54.720 I don't know why you said yes? Whatever? What does 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.319 that mean? I made a mistake? What else? What else? 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:58.839 What else would you think they meant it? Like you 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.040 are you paying with credited? What would that have meant 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:04.080 other than that I wasn't paying attention, like I offline, 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.120 like when you're you know, when you go to me 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:09.040 in the middle of a natural like I don't know 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:11.320 what you were talking about. All right, what's the poll question? 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:12.920 We're gonna sett a lot. I think we should start 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:16.280 with Pauli's Kyler Murray. That's the kind of some hot news, 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.760 hot or not news? What's out of Arizona? Wants his 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:24.559 new deal now? All right, Um, let's see what else 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:28.920 do we have here? Joe Burrow talking about being at 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:32.200 the super Bowl but being here to win. This was 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.720 media Night last night. Here's Joe Burrow it's exciting for 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:39.040 me and my family and everybody within the organization. But 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.160 you know, we're not going to sit back and revel 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:44.560 and in the opportunity that we have. We're gonna, you know, 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:47.840 try to go out and play football game and win it. 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.679 You know, we can't sit back and be excited about 0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:54.160 where we are and what we did. We're we're living 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:55.760 in the present. We're gonna have to go get it done. 0:11:56.800 --> 0:12:00.440 Not exactly smack talk, but you know, I that he 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.080 that kid is cocky. Yeah, but but he you know, 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:06.199 he's saying, look, we want to win. We're kind of 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:08.800 the feel good story, the underdog here and it's nice 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:11.280 and you know, if we lose, people are gonna say, well, 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.200 you guys had a great season. Nice little story there. 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:18.240 And it feels like they have less to lose than 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.559 what the Rams do because the Rams, if they don't win, 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:25.959 then all of a sudden, it feels like there's deeper ramifications, 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.000 Like you lost a home super Bowl to a guy 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:32.559 in his second year the Bengals, Matthew Stafford. We went 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:35.560 all in on that trade. Just feels like there's a 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:37.880 lot more attached. There's a whole lot more pressure on 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:40.319 the Rams. But the Bengals don't want to just show up. 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:42.880 You know, the Bengals have does Why wouldn't they think 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:45.679 they could win? They beat Kansas City, they beat Tennessee, 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.559 they beat the Raiders after Joe got sacked nine times. 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.679 All right, we're going against von Miller. We're going against 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:56.600 you know that entire great defense. Jalen Ramsey, Aaron Donald. 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.520 By the way, here's Von Miller talking about Joe Burrow 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.400 last night. You know it's the Joe Barrow Show. Don't 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.440 don't forget it. Not this this this guy is the 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.600 real deal. Um. I don't like making comparisons to you know, 0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:10.200 anybody else. Joe Barrow is his own guy. But you 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:13.040 definitely see shades of Tom Brady and this guy, man, 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:15.280 you know, at the moment, is not too big for him. 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:17.440 You know, they have they have a crazy team, man, 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.200 and we definitely don't want to fall into the trap 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:21.320 of you know what they've done in the past. They're 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:23.400 gonna come ready to play, and um, we're gonna be 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:26.640 ready to play as well. Okay, that's that's a veteran. 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.680 That's what you want to say. You want to compliment 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:31.280 the kid, Hey is Joe Burrow show. I see a 0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:35.000 little Tom Brady and him. They got a crazy team. Yeah, pauling, 0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:36.560 But you know what some of the questions where I 0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:38.680 went back, The question was any chance you and your 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:41.760 teammates are gonna underestimate Joe Burrow? Can you imagine Von 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:43.679 Miller goes you know what we're talking about the other 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:45.480 day and he's not the guy. We're gonna worry about 0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:47.720 it because I'm sorry, who check with me on Monday? 0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:50.120 But we are going to underestimate Burrow. Yeah, it's all 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:53.319 about mixing anyway. Yeah, I would love for someone to 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:55.560 answer a question that way. Yeah. If we don't shut 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.640 down Tee Higgins, we're not winning. I mean, everybody talks 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:00.880 about Joe Burrow, like, imagine here an offensive linement for 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.040 the Bengals. Are you guys prepared for the Aaron Donald 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:05.400 pass rush? Now we're not. No, we have zero chance. 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:07.240 We're just gonna hold out for dear life and literally 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:12.080 hold on dog, what have you seen that guy? We 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:15.360 have no chance walking him. I would love to get 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:18.520 honest press conference answers. You know that'd be gret or 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:21.320 just do thought bubbles. When somebody asks you these questions, 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.000 do you think the Rams are actually gonna say, yeah, 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:26.040 you know what, would you take him seriously? Have you 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:30.840 seen those uniforms? No? We laugh at him. Come on, yeah, 0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.080 Matt Stafford, is this the biggest game y're life? But 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:34.600 of course it's the biggest game in my life. I'm 0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:36.920 gonna get killed on Monday if I go to the 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:39.680 Hall of Fame Monday morning. If we win. Of is 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.680 it not the I played with the Lions for ten years. 0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:45.600 I didn't play a big game. Yeah. Every game that 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.400 I played in since I left the Lions is a 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.160 big game. There's a preseason game for the Rams that 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:52.359 felt bigger. All right, let's take a break. Chris Collinsworth 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.280 will join us. We'll ask him if the Bengals can 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:58.000 play up the underdog part of this equation. We'll get 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:00.360 to phone calls.

Right after this, I walked outside the hotel 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:25.760 and I saw the sprinter van there and it needs 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.880 to be washed like soon. Yeah, we're giving this away 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:34.120 on Friday. I believe it's got to be detailed inside outside. 0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:37.120 After the show yesterday, I walked outside. The van's out 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.880 outside the studio. Here looks good. French Kid was in there, 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:43.640 you know, editing and it said, yeah, welcome to my home. 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:45.960 I said, only for a couple more days. Yeah, not 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:49.320 gonna lie. I'm gonna miss her. The Mercedes Benz sprinter Van. 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:52.800 It's got all the bells and whistles there. You expect 0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:56.800 innovative safety features. You got crosswind Assist, blind spot Assist, 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.760 active break assist. That came in handy when Seaton and 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.360 the French Kid we're going through the icy conditions in Texas. Yeah, 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:07.320 expect amazing performance and reliability. Not with Seaton in the 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:12.000 French Kid, with the Mercedes Benz Van MBUX Voice Command System, 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:15.640 five star Dealer Network.

It's Super Bowl fifty 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:41.480 six live from Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles. It'll be 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:46.880 the Rams Bengals Sunday, twelve Eastern. The coverage starts on NBC, 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:51.840 Peacock and Telemundo. Chris Collinsworth will be part of the broadcast. 0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:53.440 He'll join us here in a moment. He'll be with 0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:57.080 al Michaels and Michelle Tafoya. She'll be on the sidelines. 0:16:57.440 --> 0:17:01.560 That'll be on Sunday, NBC and Peacock. You know, people 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:06.560 probably don't realize how good Collinsworth was, and I remember he. 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:10.439 I think is still in the NCAA record books for 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:15.439 the longest touchdown pass reception ninety nine yards, which of 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:19.040 course can't be beaten, but I think Collinsworth might still 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:20.840 be there. I don't know if somebody else is sharing 0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:24.240 the record with him. But Collinsworth was a great wide receiver, 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:29.800 very fast, came in, was a great impact wide receivers. 0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:33.480 Rookie year Bengals went to two Super Bowls. Collinsworth was 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:35.960 on both of those teams he had paulin. Yeah, six 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.240 five one, ninety two he was listed, which is really 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:41.320 big for the early eighties, eighty two eighty three season. 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.080 His first three years he made the Pro Ball for 0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:46.119 the Bengals. Yeah, do you have is he still? I 0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:49.000 guess the holder? Is he a co holder of the longest? 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:50.960 I gotta check. I have one that says he is. 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:53.480 I think that's a title checking. Now, did he throw 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:56.840 the pass or did he catch the pass? Because I 0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:59.520 think that's the trickier part of this, because when he 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:02.720 was at Florida, for some reason, I thought it might 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:06.320 have been he threw a like a five yard touchdown pass. Yeah, 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:08.720 I have him or five yard pass and somebody took 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:11.520 at ninety four yards. I have him throwing a pass 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.760 ninety nine yards to kar Gaffney against the Rice Owls 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:16.800 for Florida, And you're right, it was just a short 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:20.680 pass that Gaffey took the whole way. Yeah. Let's bring 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:24.560 in Chris Collinsworth, the Emmy Award winning analyst for Sunday 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:27.720 Night Football. Also he's the owner of Pro Football Focus, 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:30.840 and he has the Chris Collinsworth Podcast. We were just 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:34.080 talking about the Bengals, and you know they're not going 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.560 in Oh woe is me? But can they play the 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:39.000 play this up a little bit of it's us against 0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:46.680 the world in the Super Bowl. Um, that would assume 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:52.560 some some humble qualities of this football team, which I 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.360 don't know if they have or not. You know, it's 0:18:55.520 --> 0:19:01.840 it's a They think they're the best team in football. 0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:05.440 They think that they are never out of a game, 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:07.960 despite it being twenty one to three on the road. 0:19:08.840 --> 0:19:12.200 They think they can go into Tennessee and knock off 0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:16.119 the number one seed who had a week's rest, and 0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:20.840 beat Pittsburgh twice, and beat Kansas City twice, and beat 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:23.800 the Baltimore Ravens twice and beat the number one seed, 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:27.040 and go into Los Angeles and basically a home game 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.800 for the Rams and beat the Rams there. So I 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:33.920 don't think they have that quality. They just would kind 0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:37.879 of laugh about if you said, are you guys really 0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:40.520 think you have a chance in this game? They go, yeah, 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:42.640 we probably have a chance. You know, it's just who 0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:45.760 they are. When you look at the tape. If you're 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:48.399 gonna look at the Rams first, what's the one thing 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:51.399 that would make you nervous with this team? In the 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:59.800 performance on Sunday, nervous for them or again nervous for them. Vulnerability, vulnerability, 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:03.840 I would think because of some of the injuries they've 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:08.120 had at the safety position, Jordan Fuller and Taylor Rapp. 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:11.000 Now Rap may be back. I don't know what's going 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:15.040 to happen there. But if this group of three receivers 0:20:15.080 --> 0:20:19.600 could get down the field and work some magic down there, 0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:23.240 I think that would give the Bengals a little bit 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:25.800 of an advantage. Although I've got to say Nick Scott 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:30.080 was phenomenal against Tampa in the game that we did, 0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:34.000 and Eric went against the run game with San Francisco 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:37.919 was phenomenal coming down in the box and making plays. 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:44.240 But these are three legitimate threats at wide receiver, and 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.320 I think Tomar Chase is already the best receiver the 0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:50.359 Bengals I've ever had. And that's saying something. Because I 0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:54.080 watched Isaac Courtesy was a teammate of mine. You saw 0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:56.760 him plenty, you know exactly who I'm talking about. Chad 0:20:56.800 --> 0:21:00.919 Ocho Sinco was at a phenomenal run in his career, 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:04.159 but I've never seen anybody do with Jamar Jason has 0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:07.959 been doing, I mean, catching five yard passes and not 0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:11.480 even not even getting touched. You know, I forget about 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:13.879 they couldn't tackle them, they couldn't even get it. They 0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.720 couldn't even win one hand touch against the guy and 0:21:16.840 --> 0:21:19.960 going seventy yards for huge plays against Kansas City and 0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:23.520 against Baltimore when they needed it most. So there's a 0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:25.800 there's a lot of a lot of fun on this 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:31.399
