I have seen several 35 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: episodes Caught Up. Isn't it awesome? I love it? I 36 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: mean it really harkens back not only to the movie 37 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: from the eighties, which was amazing, but it also has 38 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: like a somewhat cheesy nine to one oh field to it. Um, Listen, 39 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: I'm eating open Cobra Kai, I have hit the weights 40 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: hard this week to try to look the partner. I 41 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: have not hit the weights hard. Um. Anyways, let's get 42 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: to sports. It's a big weekend for the tongue of 43 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: Vloa family. Huh Ta getting his first NFL starts Sunday 44 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: for the Dolphins. Very excited about that. I can't wait 45 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 1: to break down that game. Ram's Dolphins should be interesting. 46 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: And to his younger brother, who I believe was that 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: Alabama and transferred to Maryland, had a monster game last night, 48 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: yards passing three t ds, couple of TV runs, Maryland 49 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: beats Minnesota. I listen. I didn't watch a second of 50 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: the game. I just read the recap this morning. It 51 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: sounds like he he had a really good showing. Um, 52 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: and we'll do a lot of NFL. You know, we're 53 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: gonna dabble in college football. We have a good guest 54 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: coming up second hour, Trevor Lawrence. Obviously the huge college 55 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: football new is he's got COVID, he's out, he's not playing. 56 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: But um, I will say this, so I heard about 57 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: the Trevor Lawrence rumor on Thursday in the afternoon. First 58 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: and this shows you where I am in the first 59 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: thought that I had was can I get down on 60 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: it before it's pulled off the board. I went to 61 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: my first shop online, pulled second shop. It was available 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: at thirty, so I took a little bite, and then 63 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: it went down to twenty nine by the time I 64 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: was done submitting my wager, and then I was off 65 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: the board within like three minutes, and then the Trevor 66 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: Lawrence news comes out about forty five minutes later. Listen, folks, um. 67 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,119 Speaker 1: After I made the bed, I was like, I don't 68 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: even know who Clemson's backup quarterback is. So I go 69 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: and look, Uh, he's basically like the number three recruit 70 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: in the country last year, six ft four strapping quarterback, 71 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: apparently from out here. I don't know his work, but um, 72 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: you know online people are raving, oh, he's the next 73 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: great one when Lawrence leaves next year for my Jets obviously, 74 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: so I'm not all that convinced that, um, there's a 75 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: huge drop off despite how great Trevor Lawrence is. The 76 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: line came out and it was twenty four. Just shows 77 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: Clemson's dominance even with a backup quarterback. And the big 78 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: news is Trevor Lawrence almost certainly we'll play next week 79 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: against Notre Dame, assuming all goes well with the COVID, 80 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,559 Speaker 1: and it should. Trevor Lawrence, you know, supposedly not showing 81 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: any symptoms yet, um, because he has the RONA. So 82 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: let's start though with the NFL. And you know, if 83 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: you guys have listened to my daily podcast, Straight Fire, UM, 84 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: I've been on a bit of a heater and this 85 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: weekend really makes me nervous for a lot of reasons. 86 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: You've got a lot of good games, You've got several good, 87 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: tasty underdogs, whether a monster factor this weekend wins in 88 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: the twenty mile range, and you go down the card 89 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: and you're like, ah, man, there's some good games. And 90 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: then you finally get to that Dallas Philly game and 91 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: you're like, wait a second, Philadelphia is an eleven point 92 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: favorite over Dallas. What the hell is going on here? 93 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: And then you start reading about the Cowboys and I 94 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: want to stop there and back up for a little bit. 95 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: So last night, you know, the family will go out 96 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: to dinner, come home, and of course eight Miles on 97 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: the great movie with eminem and it is a great movie. 98 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen Eight Mile, I don't care what 99 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: you think about Eminem as a rapper. Hey, news flash. 100 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: I was never a big fan of Eminem, so I 101 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: didn't watch this movie for the longest time. Finally I 102 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: watch it and I was like, this is amazing. It's 103 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: a great movie, especially the ending The wrap Off. And 104 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: I'm watching that wrap off and I've seen it at 105 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: least fifty two hundred times, not an exaggeration. I had 106 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: it saved on my iTunes a couple of iPhones back, 107 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: you know, when people were getting stuff off those uh 108 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: services where you could share songs or whatever. I got 109 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: the uh the wrap off from eight miles and I 110 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: got this totally new perspective watching it last night. And 111 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: I'll tell you how it pertains to the cowboys in 112 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: a second. So Eminem was never respected in that movie 113 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: by the crowd at those like underground wrap offs, right, 114 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: just because he was white. Even though he was like them, 115 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: he had the same perspective because he grew up in 116 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: the community. Uh. You know, the guy living in a 117 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: trailer with his mom um. He was getting jumped by 118 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: these by these punks, the free world guys that you 119 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: know they hook up with this girl. He was living 120 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: their existence. Because he's white. They never respected him, right. 121 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: They respected Papa Doc, the leader of the bad Guy crew, 122 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: because obviously he was black, but they didn't know. Oh wait, 123 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 1: this guy went to a private school, his parents were married, 124 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: he had like a good upbringing. And as soon as 125 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: Eminem exposed it, oh wow, this guy is a giant fraud. 126 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, they turned on him quick. And the 127 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: parallel for me with the Allas Cowboys is that as 128 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: soon as Dak Prescott went down, everything flipped on the Cowboys. 129 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: Everybody has turned on Dallas. I was early on straight 130 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: Fire eleven days ago. You guys can go back and listen. 131 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: I said, man, this team is this team is bad. 132 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: This team is awful. Without a look at this roster. No, no, Dak, 133 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: what about a fire sale? Should they be looking to 134 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: get off of Marii cooper z Gellet like this is 135 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: their opportunity. Sometimes things happen in life, and they happen 136 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: for a reason, and you're supposed to pivot and change 137 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: with the times. And I mean, folks, you're looking at 138 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: this line, go up to eleven because somebody named Ben 139 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: Denucci is starting. Okay, Ben I went to I graduated 140 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: from JAMU folks. I followed the JAMU football team, uh 141 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: a little bit, because they're really good. Um, guys, I 142 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: didn't know who bend Nucci was and I followed JAMU football. Okay, 143 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: this is a Dallas team that in my eyes, Jerry Jones, 144 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: you're seventy eight. Okay. He thought he had a team 145 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: that was gonna be contending for the NFC's crown and 146 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: maybe in the NFC a sleeper to get to the 147 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Remember if you look back at their odds, 148 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: Oh boy, this offensive stacked. Everybody's turning on him. Now 149 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: they're in fire sale mode. They already traded Everson Griffin, 150 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: he's out of town. They cut two defenders, the kid 151 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: po on the defensive line. Jerry Jones so upset it 152 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: and he comes out and says, yeah, he's overweighted, thirty 153 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: pounds heavy and he's not even trying. And then they 154 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: dump a defensive back. At what point if it gets 155 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: ugly this weekend against the Eagles, and I don't know 156 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: if it will. I really don't eleven, get Gavin. You 157 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: got admit, like, eleven is a big, big number. It's 158 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: a big number, But when you're talking about a jam 159 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: you quarterback. He saw the field last week against Washington, 160 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: he was not good. I mean they couldn't move the football. 161 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: I think they had um under two hundred yards of offense. 162 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: They got smoked by Washington. But just to defend Dallas 163 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: for a second, Philly hasn't played a complete game all year. 164 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: They they had a quarter against the Ravens. They look good, 165 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: a quarter against the Giants. Um, they never look good 166 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: against the Bengals. Pretty much got trucked by the Rams. Um. 167 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: If I'm if I'm Jerry Jones and I'm in his 168 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: or I'm in Jerry Jones a little um, you know, 169 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: group of advisors who are talking to him. I say, Jerry, Man, 170 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: do we need to go out there and start? Hey, 171 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: what do you want for Mary Cooper? You remember the 172 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: l A Rams. Okay, they got off Brandon Cooks, they 173 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: got off Girly. Look at how they've quickly pivoted the 174 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: smart gms, the smart coaches. No, hey, hey, this is 175 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,359 Speaker 1: not working out. And I'm telling you the Dallas Cowboys, 176 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: why don't we talk about them in full on tank mode. 177 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna start bend Nucci Zeke Elliotts fumbling every time 178 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: he touches the ball. If you could ship Amory Cooper 179 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: to a contender. Hey, green Bay, you need another receiver. 180 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: Alan Lazard is hurt. You are an upgrade. Hey Cleveland, 181 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: you got Baker on the rookie contract. Odell Beckham's down. 182 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: Why don't you guys come get a Maori Cooper, Like 183 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: if your Dallas, why aren't you looking at that? And 184 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: then you get a top three pick, a top five pick? 185 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: I mean, who else is really really bad? The Falcons 186 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: clearly aren't tanking. The Vikings, I mean they still have 187 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins and then they're not tanking. It's basically the 188 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: Jets and the Jags. And if I'm Jerry Jones, I say, 189 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 1: you know what, Yeah, let's go on tank mode. I 190 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: pick up Justin Fields, a kid out of Ohio State, 191 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: even Trey Lance, and you can quickly pivot on the fly. 192 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: You get some of your offensive lineman back. Next year. 193 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: You say, Dak love you, you were great. But listen, 194 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: you can already see Cherry never wanted to pay Dak, 195 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: or you would have paid him. He franchised tag Dak. 196 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: Jerry had his options. Now he's gonna have much bigger option. 197 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: As in you know, hey, look at us, we bring 198 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: in justin fields. Look at what some of the other 199 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: teams in the league are doing right now. Arizona Kyler 200 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: Murray rookie deal, they're in the mix. Kansas City just 201 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 1: didn't won a Super Bowl with Mahomes. The Ravens Lamar 202 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: on the rookie deal. The Bills are five and two 203 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: with Josh Allen on a rookie deal. They're about to 204 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: win the division. The Browns five and two Baker on 205 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: a rookie deal. Can you convey this to a seventy 206 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: eight year old billionaire who thinks he knows everything it 207 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: doesn't want to listen to logic and reason. If he 208 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: were smart, Jerry Jones would remove his ego from the equation, 209 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: which is really challenging with somebody who's had a lot 210 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: of business success success and say, Jerry, we can do this. 211 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: Let's trade Amari Cooper, let's shop him around, and let's 212 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: seriously consider cutting Ezekiel Elliot. I know that dead money 213 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: is going to be brutal in the off season, but 214 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: we've seen the Rams do it with Gurly. You could 215 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: find running backs in the draft long term. This is 216 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: the move for Dallas but I don't know if he 217 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: can handle the short term struggles. I don't know if 218 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: Jerry can. We're gonna have a Cowboys beat writer coming 219 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: up here shortly to help us make sense of this. 220 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: Now I should prefaces the Cowboys beat writer. I like 221 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: him a lot. He's also very Dak. He's very pro 222 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: Dac likes the guy alive, and what's not to like. 223 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: Dak is a great human being. Um by all accounts, 224 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: he's you know, this guy's been through one of the 225 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: most rough years you can imagine on anybody. You wouldn't 226 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: wish what Dack's gone through this year on your worst enemies. 227 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: So I like Dak. I think if Dallas has the option, 228 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: they gotta get out, um from the awful, awful salary 229 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: cap situation they're in and go full tank load. So 230 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: coming up next, we'll talk to Clarence Hill from the 231 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: four Ward Star Telegram.

Alright, So Clarence, thanks for 252 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: joining us this morning. Listen. It's been a rough week 253 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: in cowboy Land and um, you know, I don't know 254 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 1: if fire sale is the word I would use yet, 255 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: but do you think we're headed toward one if the 256 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys do not get a victory this weekend in Philly. Now, 257 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys basically have done all they they're 258 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: going to do as far as this team and changing 259 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: this team with the release of Uh Turna, Daryl Warning, 260 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: Don Terry Poe and the training of everything Griffin. I 261 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: also seeing then the other players that you know they're 262 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: just gonna get rid of uh, you know, just for 263 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: the second getting rid of them because they're having a 264 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: bad season. But it is definitely a bad season. They 265 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: didn't see this coming. I mean, the Cowboys just it's 266 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: just been a disappointment everybody. You can point the deck 267 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: and the injuries, but also you have to point to 268 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: the mistakes they've made in free agency, Don Terry Poe, 269 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: Gerald McCoy, there are worthy go back to Hocklington, Dick, 270 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: all the guys they've signed the free agency, none of 271 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: them worked out. Seven of their free agents they brought 272 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: in they up this team and helped his defense are 273 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: no longer on this team before the midpoint of the season. 274 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a reflection on Jerry Jones, Is it 275 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: not Clarence? Yeah, I mean we we pointed the coach's 276 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: staff and and you point to the players, but you 277 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: also have to point to the front office. This is 278 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: a you know, this is also a failure to the the 279 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: front office. And now they've built this team for sure. 280 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if if you if I'm advising Jerry, 281 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: why would I not just say, listen, Jerry, we need 282 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: to take a hard look at everybody. Why don't we 283 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: go full tank mode. We're not making the playoffs. The 284 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: offensive lines hurt, the defense stinks. Do we need to 285 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: look at getting off Mr Cooper shntract and trading him 286 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: if possible to a contender. Jerry will never go in 287 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: on full tank mode. Never, never, never, always wants to 288 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: be in contender. I always want to be in the conversation. 289 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: He's always selling, He's always marketing. You know, he's never 290 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: gonna blow it up. You know that that that's never 291 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: gonna be hit them because he's still you know, he's selling. 292 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: He's selling. He will try to sell ice to Eskimo 293 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: and right now he's selling this Cowboys team, still trying 294 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: to win this horrible NFC East. Uh certainly you look 295 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: at the Maria Cooper, you look at some of the 296 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: contract and properly could do let's do something, uh in 297 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: that respect, But then you're admitting that you made a mistake. 298 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: And then you know you gave up a first round picker. 299 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: You're gonna give her a first round picking return. This 300 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: is not a situation where you're gonna be the Houston 301 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: Texans where you give up Deanandre Hopkins for nothing. You 302 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: know they're not if they can't get a first round 303 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: picking return, they're not doing it. So I guess the 304 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: counter would be, well, Listen, my mom used to tell me, hey, man, Jason, 305 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: it's a bad situation. You gotta make lemonade out of lemons. 306 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: And I look around the league, Clarence. I see, uh, 307 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: Kansas City wins the Super Bowl with the quarterback on 308 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: a rookie contract. I see Arizona quickly pivots getting the 309 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: number one pick, getting a rookie quarterback. Look at the 310 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens with Lamar Jackson, the Browns of 311 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. I'm just saying, no, No, Clarence, this is 312 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: real talk, real talk. If they win three games and 313 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: they have a top five pick. Why are you laughing? 314 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: They might only win three or four games. Oh. I 315 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: don't disagree with any of that, but the idea that 316 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: they would move away from Dak Prescott for rookie corner 317 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: vent after what they how they treated back and done that, 318 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: I mean, there's no forgiving them if you move all 319 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: from deck, now is there? Come on? Well, I guess 320 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: you could say how Jerry never wanted to pay Dak. 321 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: He never paid him, he never offered him the real 322 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: big money that Dak wanted, and now he's looking at 323 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: another franchise tag. Why not just say, you know what, 324 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: we went three and thirteen, we got the number three pick, 325 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: let's take justin fields and um, you know we're just 326 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: gonna pivot on the on the rookie quarterback. What would 327 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: you say, there's a chance of that happened in Clarence. 328 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: I just don't see that happening. I just don't see 329 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: the cowboy of doing that, because if you're at that 330 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: point to get fields, then you're at the point where 331 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: someone who may want to trade up the fields and 332 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: give you a bushel of draft picks. Chuff improved the team. 333 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: This team has needs across the board they have wasn't 334 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: one need. So if you're in that situation, then I'm 335 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: gonna be in the cab birds. See as far as 336 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: what do you want for Justice Fields and give me 337 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: a bustled draft picks so I can improve the team, 338 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: improve his defense. Because even if you go get in 339 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: just the Fields, just like you had Dak Prescott, you're 340 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: not gonna win unless you're gonna get some help from 341 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: that Degit well got aising off of the line. You've 342 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: got real issues that go beyond the quarterback position. Again, 343 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: the quarterback was not their problems. Uh, going for Justine 344 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 1: Fields won't be the solution either. Well, you know you 345 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: could argue that way a sect Lamar Jackson because he's 346 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: on a rookie contract, allowed Baltimore to go out and 347 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: get Marcus Peters, Earl Thomas. I know he's gone two 348 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: guys on the defensive line. These are veteran guys who 349 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: can help instantly. Dallas can get a bunch of draft 350 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: picks and maybe a third round pick can be a 351 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: factor in a fifth round pick. But if if I'm downless, 352 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: I say, if I get Justin Fields and I don't 353 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: have to pay Dack thirty seven million next year. I 354 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: can go get some impact defensive guys. Right now, I 355 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: hear you, and I understand, But that means that you're 356 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: failing to remember that the Cowboys were in that position. 357 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: They had deck on the rookie contrast. What did they do? 358 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: They screwed it up. Jerry screwed it up. Okay, so 359 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: now they're gonna get it right. I mean, listen, maybe 360 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: you get it You get a second chance, Clarence is 361 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: just not when you first met you, first you met 362 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: the woman that would be your wife. You screwed it 363 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 1: up the first time. Then you met her the second time, 364 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: you said, I ain't screwing this one up. I gotta 365 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: fix this. I gotta make it right. You get a 366 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: second chance. Maybe this is Jerry's second chance, sir. I've 367 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: been covered to Cowboys X. They've screwed it up role 368 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: in verses ninety nine and six. They've had any second chances, 369 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: they haven't gotten it right yet. Now all of a sudden, 370 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna get it right. What's the definition of insanity? 371 00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: Come on, man, doing the same thing over Gerry Jones Cowboys. 372 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: This is Jerry Jones Cowboys. Clarence. It almost sounds like 373 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: you're so defeated that you're like, all right, they're just 374 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: gonna get backed back. Next year, maybe a couple offensive 375 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: line will be healthy and then maybe we'll be ten 376 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: and six. Whoop thee damn do we're not winning anything. 377 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: I go for the full on tear down. If I'm 378 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 1: Jerry and I'm smart, let me ask you this. Do 379 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: you think McCarthy survives this season? You know what I 380 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: did initially, But you know, if it goes three and thirteen, 381 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: I don't know, all bets are off because again, Jerry 382 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: didn't sign up for this, you know, I know he's 383 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: you know, said I got my man, my Carthy McCarthy 384 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: to get us through this. But Jerry didn't signed up 385 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: for three and thirteen. You know. He gave him the 386 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: Tommy the hiest coaching staff and bring the guys in. 387 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: But no one saw this coming. You know. When they 388 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: hiring McCarthy, it was about we have a team that 389 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: can win, We have the talent, we want to win now. 390 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: They didn't want to go through the growing pains of 391 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: going with a young coach like Carolina did and maybe 392 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: a Lincoln rival, and he wanted to you know, or 393 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: or some new coach you wanted to prove in coach 394 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: who can take the team and win. Now, they didn't 395 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: buy into two, two, three and thirteen and starting over 396 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: and going through these tough times. So, uh, Jerry saying 397 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: all the right things now, but if this does end 398 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: up three and thirteen, you know, anything is possible. But 399 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: couldn't you argue this whole like, oh, they don't want 400 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: to go through the growing pains of a new coach 401 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: like Cliff Kingsbury went I think five ten and one 402 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: last year. Now they're five and two and they're firmly 403 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: they're a playoff team. Like this growing pains idea, it 404 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: almost feels like a narrative. It's not based in that 405 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: much reality when we're seeing these young coaches come into 406 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: the league and instantly like, oh, this guy's having some success. 407 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: Look what's happening there. Uh Vray Bowl in Tennessee is 408 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: doing extremely well in Uh you know he hasn't been 409 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: around that long. Um, you get the guy La Fleur 410 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: in Green Bay last year, thirteen and three. This year, 411 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: I mean they're five and one, Like is it is 412 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: it almost silly to say Peterson you could say that, Yeah, 413 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: but you could go down to this. This is Jerry 414 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: lock I'm not trying to defend Jeri logic. I'm only 415 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: explaining Jerry logic. So this is Jerry lozing, this is 416 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: his line of thinking. These are his words. It's not 417 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: my words. It's not something I would have done. I 418 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: certainly would have gone for a young coaches that can 419 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: bring some new energy into this organization. Uh. And that 420 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: would have gone was an older coach, you know who. 421 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: Things got still in Green Bay. And and maybe we're 422 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: realizing that Aaron Rodgers covered up a lot of stuff, 423 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 1: just like we're realizing that Deck First got caught up 424 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff in doubt. Indeed, all right, thank you, 425 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: Clarence Hill. You can follow him on Twitter at Clarence 426 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: Hill Junior.

We squee called this um the Drew 491 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: Locks show was fun against excuse you, some really bad 492 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: defenses last year. And then when he has to face 493 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: a good defense, he, I mean, he turns into a pumpkin. 494 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: Hello Halloween alliteration there, bang Um. I just I'm not 495 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: buying this Denver defense. And I know, I know they're 496 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: a little healthier than they were, like I don't know 497 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,959 Speaker 1: three weeks ago, but we're talking about our team that 498 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: can't move the football. And by the way, the Chargers, 499 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: Gavin with Ingram and both a healthy are nasty on 500 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: the front line. They got a safety back last week, 501 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: and I loved some of the stuff they disguised against 502 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: Minshew and Gus Bradley knows defense last year, if not, 503 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: if Rivers didn't totally screw it up in Denver, they 504 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: win that game. I remember where Rivers and Lynn cost 505 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: me money last year. And but I don't know. I 506 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: like the Chargers. I mean, I wish it wasn't three. 507 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: If you could give me two and a half, I'll 508 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: definitely be teasing the Chargers. But yeah, they're they're five 509 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: and one against the spread. I think the one they 510 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: lost was the Panthers game against right, Um, but you 511 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: look at who they beat in that time or who 512 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: they hung with really Justin Herbert if you want to 513 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: doubt him, Patrick Mahomes, Teddy Bridgewater. They lost that game 514 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: by uh looks like five points in that game, Brady 515 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: Breeze and then Minshew. You could argue easily that Drew 516 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: lock is the worst of the quarterbacks that he has 517 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,479 Speaker 1: gone up against these games. Right, So, I don't know. 518 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you have the Melvin Gordon revenge factor 519 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: because Melton Gordon is not a good running back and 520 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: they've had a lot of issues on the offensive line. COVID. 521 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: COVID could play an issue here because there was some 522 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: stuff this week. Um who got it was a player 523 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: on I think both sides, um, but definitely a Chargers 524 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. But he was a backup, maybe a third stringer. 525 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: But um, yeah, the charges are getting healthier. And I 526 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 1: don't know, I'm not I'm not really worried about them 527 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: losing this game. I'm just you know, I haven't bet 528 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: it myself. When things get weird with the COVID stuff, 529 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: I tend to stay away, but I'm not. I don't 530 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: I don't see this being a trap game for them 531 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,719 Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, I would agree with that. And and 532 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: it's weird, guys, if you really look at the NFL 533 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: and how the TV shows, the radio shows cover the NFL. 534 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: Over the last I don't know, ten fifteen years, it's 535 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: been two teams, right, Gavin, the Cowboys and the Patriots. 536 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: Because the Patriots are the best with Belichick and Brady 537 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: leading the way, they've been utterly dominant for two decades. 538 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: They are very down this year. They stink, they've lost 539 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: three in a row. They're gonna lose the a f 540 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: C East. They're not a playoff team. And the Cowboys, 541 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: we just articulated, uh, might be in fire sale tank mode. 542 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: So you gotta make things interesting when you look around 543 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: the league, and I don't I find like the league 544 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: is still in good shape. I don't want to. I 545 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: feel like we're getting past that, right Gavin. We're kind 546 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: of over this Patriots Cowboys thing now, obviously, Jason, you 547 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: just opened the show with the Cowboys. Yeah, because I 548 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: had the unique fire sale angle and get rid of 549 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper and Zeke Now a Cowboys beat writer don't 550 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: want to hear about that. Well, I think the most 551 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: interesting thing this season, and in going back to last 552 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: season two, it started with Josh Rosen is like the 553 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: the UM a lot of gms. Now we're willing to 554 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: move off that young quarterback they just drafted, even if 555 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: it was in the first round. They're not tied to him, 556 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: and they are willing to move forward, just like you know, 557 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: maybe Drew Lock. Maybe the Broncos move forward after this 558 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: year and find a different quarterback. UM, And the same 559 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: thing could be said about the Cowboys and Dad. Yeah, 560 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: I I really think that this is uh an NFL 561 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: where the young quarterbacks can come in and instantly be effective. 562 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: Now let's go to quickly to the Miami game and 563 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: Dak I'm sorry not Dak filling in for Fitzpatrick. I 564 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 1: gotta say, Gavin, I'm really close to pulling the trigger 565 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: on the Miami Dolphins. In the contest, the one point 566 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: four million dollar contest, by the way, I gotta check 567 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: it out. I think I'm one hundred step tied for 568 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: one seventy eight out of three thousand one people, so 569 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: I have a shot to get the money. Last week 570 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: three and two. I'm kicking myself, folks. The last two weeks, 571 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: UM right before you submit your picks. I've pivoted at 572 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: the last moment and said, oh, you know, COVID injuries, 573 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: let me flip and I took the Patriots last week 574 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: and it was it was bad. That was my first 575 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: really really bad pick. And this week I think the 576 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: Dolphins might be my final pick. Is that a bad one? 577 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: The Rams travel in a fourth trip to the East Coast. 578 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: I think you said it best about the um Brian 579 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: Flores Jared goth thing. He knows how to game play. 580 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: M he did it in the Super Bowl. Um, I 581 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: think that's going to be a factor. And yeah, you 582 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: you have to look at college tape to to prepare 583 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: for two. That's not easy. We say, we've seen this 584 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: plenty of times. I mean, look at the Chiefs. How 585 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: hard it was for them when No Justin Herbert turned 586 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: out to be a good quarterback so far, But that 587 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: definitely was hard for them preparing for Tyrod right and 588 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: then having to pivot to a college quarterback. Yeah, when 589 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: you look at the Rams schedule, okay, Gavin, Um, So 590 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: they beat Dallas and the opener, uh no, fans, then 591 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: they go to Philly. I was on the Eagles that day. 592 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: The idiotic. They win, no fans. They go to Buffalo, 593 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: no fans, they lose. That was the travel spot that 594 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: hurt them. Then they go they host the Giants, no fans. 595 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: You guys know what the Miami, Miami can have fans. 596 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: You know what I'm getting at. They don't cover against 597 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: the Giants. They didn't look great. Then they go to Washington. 598 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: I was on Washington. They Rams cover. Then they go 599 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: at San France. Obviously it's in l A all right, sorry, 600 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: in California where no fans will ever be, don't get 601 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: me started. And they lose to Jimmy g Then they 602 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: host Chicago, no fans again, and they win. This will 603 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: be the first game, Gavin, the Rams have played in 604 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,719 Speaker 1: front of any fans. Now, I don't think the thirteen 605 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: thousand fans in Miami is a huge factor, but it's 606 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: certainly something. The weather. Uh, it's looking like it's gonna 607 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: be in the eighties, which is could be a heat 608 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: factor for a team that's traveling across the country for 609 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: the fourth time. To is the unknown and I kind 610 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: of I kind of dig unknown, right like you just 611 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: you don't know what you're gonna get to. It could 612 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: come out and boom boom boom. Holy cow, this guy 613 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: looks awesome, right. Um, you know we've seen rookie quarterbacks. 614 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,479 Speaker 1: Guys really shocked the world. And with two weeks to prepare, 615 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: I think I talked myself in the Miami I will 616 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: add this on the Rams defense are getting all this hype. 617 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: They faced Dak, they faced Wentz. Josh Allen tore this 618 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: Rams defense up. And guess who Josh Allen's offensive coordinator is, 619 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,719 Speaker 1: Brian Dable. Guess who was the offensive coordinator at Alabama 620 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: when too was there. Brian Dable. Okay, Um, then the 621 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: Rams defense shut down the Giants. Danny Dime stinks. Uh. 622 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen, Um, he's not good. Jimmy Garoppolo and Nick 623 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: Foles and Miami we don't know what toa is. And 624 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: he's got two good receivers in Williams and Parker Giseki. 625 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: The tight end is very good. I think I like 626 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: Miami here. I do. Will continue to go around the 627 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: NFL later in the show, But we haven't talked to 628 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: NBA in two weeks.

Oh all right, 660 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: I should not have gone there, allegedly, I'll add, allegedly, 661 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: but come on, that's a good point. Thank you for that. 662 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,720 Speaker 1: Save Gavin. All right back here on Fox Sports Radio. Obviously, listen. 663 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: Growing up, my dad was a huge James Bond fan, massive, 664 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: and Sean Connery was James Bond. Okay, don't give me this, 665 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: Timothy Dalton crap, Okay, he was. He was the worst Bond. Um. 666 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: I actually thought the guy in recent years, what's his name, 667 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: Daniel Um? Chuck some spacing, Daniel Craig. There you go, 668 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: who are you saying? No? I I forgot it. Okay, Yeah, 669 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: Daniel Craig was pretty good. He's good, but Connery is 670 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: the guy I mean, and now he's dead at ninety 671 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: years old. Um, maybe it'll show some James Bond marathons 672 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: this week. Don't do it on Saturday or Sunday. Okay, 673 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: I got football to watch, Halloween candy to steal from 674 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: my kids. Um, but yeah, that that's a tough blow. 675 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: We could do maybe our top five Bond movies later 676 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 1: in the show, or we'll ows it with it. We'll 677 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: save that for later. Okay, So I I tease small 678 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: business owners. Okay, everybody knows that Lebron and Rich Paul 679 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: are Clutch Sports and they got this fun thing going 680 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: on and they're starting to take over the league. And 681 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 1: now Clutch has k C. P as a as a client. 682 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna um commands a big money because he looked decent, 683 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: too good in the finals with Lebron and a D 684 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: against a beat up Heat team. And Clutch Sports is 685 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: doing very well so this week. Okay, Clutch Sports has 686 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: a few NBA draft prospects, and as we know, there's 687 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: not gonna be like an NBA draft combine because of COVID. 688 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:48,959 Speaker 1: COVID screwed up everything, and Clutch Sports said, you know what, 689 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna put our on our own combine. We're gonna 690 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: invite are our best young clients who are gonna be 691 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 1: in this draft, and yeah, we'll have Lebron come and hang, 692 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: we'll put on television and because it's NBA and players 693 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: working out and oh yeah, because we got Lebron here 694 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: showing up, they're gonna put on TV and it was 695 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: televised by ESPN and all these agents were outraged. This 696 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: is not fair, this is so bad. Why why is 697 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 1: the league allowing this? And I'm looking at him like, 698 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: what are they what are they so upset for? This 699 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 1: is smart business. This is chess when everybody else is 700 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:31,240 Speaker 1: playing checkers, you want to do zooms? That's great, okay, 701 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: But basically Clutch Sports had a pro day and they 702 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: decided to put it on TV and let everybody watch 703 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards and they the good young prospects that Clutch 704 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: Sports has. It's smart business. If you're a small business owner, 705 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: you've got to look for any edge you can find. 706 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 1: Gavin and I talk about gambling all the time. We're 707 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: looking for that tiny edge that nobody else has that 708 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: will allow us to cash and get to the window 709 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: and make some money. Clutch Sports just found their edge. Hey, 710 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: why don't we rule all our clients together and put 711 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: her on TV. We'll do all the work. You guys 712 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: just have to televise it boom. How easy is that? 713 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: Why didn't other agencies think of this? It's smart marketing. 714 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: Any other agent could have said, you know what, I've 715 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: got ten I got ten prospects. Let's put it on 716 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: TV thirty minutes special, hour long spec Why not? Well, 717 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: it's totally smart and I can't believe other agents haven't 718 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: thought of this. And of course everybody's going after Clutch 719 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: saying they're bad and that's not good. It's not fair. 720 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: Life isn't fair, folks, you think COVID's fair. Imagine if 721 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: you just sat on your rump and said this is unfair, 722 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: this sucks. COVID's ruining anything and for the last six 723 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 1: months and you did nothing. Don't be that guy. Don't 724 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: do that. Try to make something happen. You gotta get 725 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: off your U and try. And I'm really impressed with 726 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: what I'm seeing from Clutch. No I didn't get an 727 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: invite to this thing. No, I didn't watch the second 728 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 1: of it, but it was televised and it was smart. 729 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: And guess what, there's a thing called YouTube and social 730 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: media that even if you didn't watch it, you can 731 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 1: still watch it. Like you can watch it on YouTube. 732 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: Go look on social media. It's probably on their Facebook page. 733 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: You get a look at the at the players. Now 734 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: we are in the final hour, gonna have a college 735 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: basketball player who's could go in the first round, might 736 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: more likely in the second. We're trying to get him 737 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: on at about nine thirty Pacific twelve thirty Eastern. I'm 738 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 1: not gonna say who it is, but this kid, when 739 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: you watch his highlights and you ask around me, he's 740 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: this guy could listen. I'm not saying he's gonna be 741 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: Fred van vleet Um and gonna shock the world, but 742 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: his handle reminds me of Kyrie Irving. He's got the 743 00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: dogged nous in him that will make it in to 744 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: the NBA. And and we're trying to get him on 745 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: in the final hour. Um that was you know, his 746 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: agent sounds like he's going to deliver him for us, 747 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: So hopefully we could tease that in the final hour. 748 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: But coming up, we got two more hours. We'll do 749 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: Halloween costumes, Chris and Gavitt. I'm sure I would say 750 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: I'm probably dressing up. You know, I didn't love Halloween 751 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: as a kid. You know, as a young kid. I did, 752 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: but I didn't totally love it. Um, just because I 753 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: wanted the candy, but I didn't want to go through 754 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 1: the rigamarolea dressing up. So we'll do a little Halloween, 755 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: some double O seven James Bond coming up next. At 756 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: the top of the hour, we will talk to a 757 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,760 Speaker 1: beat writer in a columnist. I'm sorry in Boston about 758 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots. This is the end, folks, the end of 759 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: the dynasty. Two decades, it's over, and I'm so damn happy. 760 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: Our number two here on Fox Sports Radio.

Um, we will jump back into 765 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: some of the other stuff we're talking about earlier in 766 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: the show, but we've got to get it to our 767 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 1: next guest. Let's just get this right off the bat, 768 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: just because you'll detect some glee in my voice as 769 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: a guy born in New York, longtime Jets fan, and 770 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 1: Dan Shaughnessy from the Boston Globe stops by, Dan, how 771 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: are you doing this weekend? I'm excellent, Dan, I'm excellent. 772 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: And I know that's that's a strange thing to hear, 773 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: uh in the middle of a pandemic, But from a 774 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: sports perspective, it gives me a lot of joy that 775 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: the Red Sox made a terrible mistake trading way Mookie 776 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 1: Bets for a bag of baseballs and a couple of donuts. 777 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 1: And did you watch Mookie thrive in the World Series? Did? Yeah? 778 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm curious any thoughts about you know, Boston having regrets 779 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: about trading away a really, really talented player. Well, this 780 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: has been something that's been a sticking point here since 781 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: February when they did it, and we kind of knew 782 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: they were going to do something, and it didn't play 783 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: well to the crowd here obviously, and so I was 784 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,439 Speaker 1: hoping Bets would be m VP, just to make any 785 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: worse for them, but Segar did a little bit too much. 786 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: So I just think, um, you know, it hasn't gone away, 787 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: and and you know, they were celebrating their payroll flexibility, 788 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: which is not a real thing that that fans are 789 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: attracted to. So um, the Sox got what they deserve, 790 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: ultimate humiliation, a lot of piling on. I mean even 791 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: grad Role, you know the relief picture there. They they 792 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:31,359 Speaker 1: turned him down, um because he was high risk or something. 793 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:32,959 Speaker 1: I don't know, but he's throwing a hundred one miles 794 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: an hour. He looked pretty good too, as opposed to 795 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: the slop we saw this summer, so you know, it 796 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: was it was kind of a sweet moment for those 797 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 1: who wanted to see the Red Sox get their come 798 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: up and sign that deal. And now, um, you know, 799 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,919 Speaker 1: anybody who's not a fan of the Patriots or maybe 800 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: they're just sick of two decades of dominance, is watching, um, 801 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,879 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's team go up in flames, I mean, three 802 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:58,280 Speaker 1: straight losses, looking totally inept against a beat up forty 803 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: Niners team. Now Julian Edleman is down and this feels 804 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 1: like Custer's last stand if you will, for Bill Belichick 805 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: and um, I don't know, let's just start with the big, 806 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: big picture. Ken Belichick win this game, uh, I mean 807 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: their game with the Bills tomorrow is is it's really 808 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: it's weird to say. I mean, you know you're talking 809 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: you know, early November game and uh seventh game of 810 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 1: the year, but it feels like a must win for them. 811 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 1: I mean, if they lose their three and a half 812 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: behind the Bills, you know, seven weeks in and and 813 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: it's just probably not going to happen for them in 814 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: terms of their only path to the playoffs would be 815 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,920 Speaker 1: to win the division, which they have always done sixteen 816 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 1: out of seventeen years, right, So we knew this was 817 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: year going to be a different year. But the level 818 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,439 Speaker 1: of play we've seen the last two weeks at home 819 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 1: against a bad Denver team and a Niner team that 820 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: was banged up and not really dominating. Just never seen 821 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 1: it them like this since Bill's first year twenty years ago, 822 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 1: the year two thousand. So yeah, I think, you know, 823 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: they they tend to they always they toy with Buffalo. 824 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: They've won thirty five and five I think over the 825 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: twenty years, um, and it's something. It's it's a staggering number, 826 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 1: but it was all Brady in those years said they 827 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: don't have that now, as you said, they don't have 828 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: any wide receivers going in. Newton has played like crap 829 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, so this is gonna be um. 830 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 1: I mean for the Bills mafia, this is a chance 831 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 1: to really, you know, put their foot on their throats 832 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:29,280 Speaker 1: and just just kill them all together. Um. But until 833 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: I see it, I'm always reluctant because of the scheming 834 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: that that the Patriots do the psychological edge, but we 835 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: haven't seen much of that. I mean, New England looked 836 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: okay early in the year, even with the losses at 837 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: Seattle and at Kansas City, they were not bad. Um. 838 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: But since then, I mean, it's been bad. So we'll 839 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 1: see where it goes. Dan, I gotta say, uh, you know, 840 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 1: everybody is what have you done for me lately? Okay? 841 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 1: I know Bill Belichick's won a ton of games, super 842 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 1: Bowls again, two decades of dominance. But he turned sixty 843 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 1: nine in April, right, and I know that he's a 844 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: prideful man. And uh it's pretty clear that you know, 845 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 1: given his father being at the Naval Academy coaching there forever, 846 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: there's kind of an Armed Forces mentality that he has. 847 00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't see Bill Belichick as a quitter or a 848 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: guy who's gonna walk away. But I do wonder do 849 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: you think he has the stomach to rebuild at the 850 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: age of sixty nine? Um, because I gotta be honest, 851 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: this looks like a bottom three roster in the NFL. 852 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: When you just look at who they have playing this year, 853 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,280 Speaker 1: it looks pretty bad. Do you foresee a potential rebuild? 854 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 1: And will Bill want to sit through that? Well? You 855 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,439 Speaker 1: know what else does he have to do? I mean, 856 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: he he really loves football. He's got two sons on 857 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 1: the staff now. Um, so it's you know, he he 858 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: has autonomy to this point. And and you know the 859 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: fans up here, you know, kiss his button no matter what, 860 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 1: and Bill, we trust, etcetera, etcetera. And they've had bad 861 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: draft for five or six years. So, um, you know 862 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 1: a lot of this is him. And you know, you're 863 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 1: the NFL. You're supposed to go down and come back up. 864 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 1: You're not supposed to stay up for for nineteen years 865 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: whatever it is. So you know that's catching up to 866 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: him now. And the Brady things part of it, the 867 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: bad drafting part of it. Eight guys opted out, blah 868 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,879 Speaker 1: blah blah, So he doesn't have a quarterback. So all 869 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 1: those things but you know what, he wants to catch Shula. 870 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 1: I think he's like forty three games away from that. 871 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: He's a big guy on history, and like I say, 872 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: having two sons on the staff, having autonomy here, having 873 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: a regional base that that forgives just just about anything 874 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: he does, UM, pretty sweet deal. I'm not sure what 875 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 1: he would do that would be more fun. And he's 876 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: seven years younger than Tony Larusa so good. I forgot 877 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 1: to mention Tony Lusa. But wait if you if he 878 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: wants to catch Shula and you're looking at they win 879 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: five games this year, I mean he's got to stick 880 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 1: around for at least four more years. Now, what's I 881 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: think they'll win more than five? I haven't gone that 882 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: low yet with it. I mean it's still playing the 883 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: Jets twice. I mean, I think they'll win more than five. 884 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: But I understand what you're saying. I mean, rather than 885 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 1: looking at a at a five year slog to catch 886 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, he can't be looking at an eight or 887 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: ten year deal. That would be bad. I don't know. 888 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: What what do you think what happens if McDaniels gets in, 889 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: and again I don't think he will. It's funny Dan. 890 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,479 Speaker 1: The first couple of weeks of the season, Cam looks 891 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: good running and passing against Seattle. Oh, Josh McDaniels, he's 892 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 1: so he's a genius. He doesn't really look like a 893 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 1: genius against Denver or San Francisco. I don't know what's 894 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 1: your thoughts on McDaniels. Um, you know, he always wanted 895 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: this Patriots gig right to take over for Bill. But 896 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: if you're talking forty forty three more wins, it's McDaniels 897 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,319 Speaker 1: waiting this out right. I mean, I I think they 898 00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: take care of him in a good way. I mean 899 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: that curious thing when he turned down, you know, when 900 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 1: he accepted the Colt job and then renegue don him 901 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 1: and all that. That that told me that he's got 902 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: something here. Either it's just so good for him here 903 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 1: that he's okay with that, or he can wait his turn. 904 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: But like you said, who wants to wait around another 905 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: eight ten years for that? I have a hard time 906 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: imagine that. And he could probably you know, he had 907 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: the one shot in Denver didn't work out great. But 908 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 1: he's still a young guy, and um, I think that 909 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 1: that's very possible. A lot depends on how things evolved, 910 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: how things pivot with this year and next year, and 911 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: whether or not they have a quarterback. How long can 912 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 1: they go without a quarterback? If not long, if the 913 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: Bills win forty two to sixteen, would you be stunned? Well, 914 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,399 Speaker 1: the Bills didn't score a touchdown against the Jets last 915 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: we have to say yes. But wait, Dan, they also 916 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 1: did not punt. They moved the ball up and down 917 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: the field. And again, maybe they were thinking about this game. 918 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: You know, the sandwich spot, Chiefs, Patriots, you know who 919 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,839 Speaker 1: cares about the Jets? They stink. Yeah, I'm intrigued. I mean, 920 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: I I to tell you the truth, I'm enjoying this 921 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: season much more than the last three or four because 922 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going to happen from week to week. 923 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,920 Speaker 1: And uh, it used to be it was so you know, 924 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: just routine, the same old, same old. So this is 925 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 1: as bad as it is. But if they get stomped 926 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: like that, I just I just don't see the Bills 927 00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:59,320 Speaker 1: running up that many points. So I'm gonna going to 928 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: say that would really Let me give you a bit 929 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: of a curveball here at the end. So I heard 930 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 1: an interesting rumor about the Celtics and Um, I forget 931 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: who broke this, uh theory, but the word on Gordon 932 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 1: Hayward is that he could be on the move. Somebody 933 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 1: speculated maybe the Pacers make a move for him and uh, 934 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,320 Speaker 1: some kind of trade so the Celtics get some size 935 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,839 Speaker 1: in Sabonis or Miles Turner. Um, what are you hearing 936 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 1: on Gordon Hayward in Boston in what felt like a 937 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: great signing at the time but has been a disaster 938 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: since that first game when he got injured. Yeah, I 939 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 1: mean he's got the opt out, but it's it's gonna 940 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 1: cost him too much money to do that. So what 941 00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: do you suggest? You know, the trade thing is is 942 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 1: more of a viable rumor and it wouldn't be a 943 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: shocker here. It hasn't been a great fit there. There 944 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: have a little bit of a duplication of of skill 945 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: sets with Brown and Tatum and Hayward. You know, they're 946 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 1: all around the same side and you know, do a 947 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,760 Speaker 1: lot of the same things, different different levels and injuries 948 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 1: and whatnot. Hayward was had a very disappointing playoff and well, yeah, 949 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 1: it feels like kind of rubber meets the road time 950 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,120 Speaker 1: for him. We could go either way. And you know, 951 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 1: we know Stevens likes him, vice versa. The two Indiana guys, 952 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: you could handshake all that stuff. So I don't know, um, 953 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 1: but it's not out of the realm that that's certainly 954 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 1: something in the NBA is such a different animal right now, 955 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,359 Speaker 1: because you don't know, you know, they've got to get 956 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:17,840 Speaker 1: back on and and and fire it up again pretty 957 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: fast here, so anything could happen. Yeah, yeah, I don't 958 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 1: know that that's going to happen. How How the hell 959 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: can you have two months off for some of your 960 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 1: best teams and call that an off season, Like if 961 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm Lebron, I'd say I'll see you guys in January. 962 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, they might start and go without him, 963 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, you know, it's it's because I 964 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,319 Speaker 1: think that the seventy two game thing is real and 965 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: that could be in perpetuity. They've got to get back 966 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 1: in line on on some sort of a you know, 967 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: I don't know, November to June kind of pace and 968 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 1: and and it's going to take a year to iron 969 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,080 Speaker 1: that out. I don't know, Dan, you you're you're you 970 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 1: know this as a columnist, you can't please everybody. Okay, 971 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: I don't understand the fascination with the damn Olympics. Who cares, like, 972 00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 1: forget it, play the games in August when you're up 973 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 1: against nothing, finished the season in early August, there is 974 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 1: no contest. You're not going up against anything except baseball. 975 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what this rushes for June. I understand that. 976 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 1: And then part of that goes back to the old 977 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: David Stern global entity and and and trying to get 978 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: your footprint around the world kind of thing. But I 979 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. But I do think we're 980 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 1: going to see a shorter season, and I think it's 981 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,359 Speaker 1: going to start later in perpetuity whenever they get their 982 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: news stride. Interesting all right, Dan Shawnessy, Boston Globe, Thank you, Dan, 983 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:33,719 Speaker 1: have a great safe weekend. Interesting stuff from Dan Shaughnessy. Listen, 984 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:38,319 Speaker 1: I know I floated Gavin a forty two sixteen Bills win. 985 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: I'll be completely honest, folks, nothing would surprise me for 986 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 1: Bill's Patriots. If the Patriots win, it would not shock me. 987 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:50,920 Speaker 1: This belichicks, how can you totally discount what he's done 988 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 1: over the last twenty years and he pulls out some 989 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: crazy game plan. It's been buried for years. This is 990 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 1: our nuclear option, use only in case of emergency. This 991 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:06,160 Speaker 1: is an emergency. Patriots maybe shocked the world, but then again, 992 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: Bills have been I could take out two decades of 993 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,920 Speaker 1: frustrations on the Patriots here. And I know Josh Allen 994 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,240 Speaker 1: was what was he freaking elementary school when the Patriots 995 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,839 Speaker 1: won their fort Super Bowl. But as an organization, as 996 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 1: a fan base, you can feel that these guys are 997 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: on social media. They're seeing the comments, they're seeing the tweets. 998 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 1: Every day it's oh, please beat the Patriots. They killed 999 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:34,040 Speaker 1: us for two decades. And I actually think the Bill 1000 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,360 Speaker 1: is not looking great against the Jets. Sets them up, Gavin, 1001 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,880 Speaker 1: because this is the game they care about. They again, 1002 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: they didn't care about the Jets. They moved the ball 1003 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 1: up and down the field, did not punt once, they 1004 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: missed a field goal, and they had a fumble. Otherwise 1005 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:51,240 Speaker 1: it was a just complete dismemberment of my Sorry ask Jets. 1006 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 1: Bills get John Brown back, so the passing games should 1007 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: be intact. Patriots lose Stefan Gilmore, so the defense is 1008 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,440 Speaker 1: going to be with Gilmore's out. Gilmore is out of 1009 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 1: the game. Is that new? I am pretty sure I 1010 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: saw that yesterday. Maybe it was doubtful, but um, you know, 1011 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 1: with all the you know, rumors about that he might 1012 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 1: get traded, it seems like you would want to keep 1013 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: him down. Yeah. I mean, listen, people don't want to 1014 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: hear it. But this idea of hey man, let's just 1015 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,879 Speaker 1: tear it down and rebuild, that makes all the sense 1016 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 1: in the world to me. It does. Okay, so we 1017 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: have him questionable, but he also sold his Fox for 1018 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 1: at home. There's been a lot of rooms about getting traded. 1019 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 1: Remember Tom Brady. We we discounted all that where Brady's 1020 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 1: house was on the market. Remember that. And the same 1021 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: thing with Lebron. Remember Lebron. It's just something you can 1022 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:49,840 Speaker 1: read the tea leaves. Remember uh. Levian Bell followed the 1023 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 1: Chiefs on Instagram and everyone and then went to the chief. Wow. 1024 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,359 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I think I heard the Gilmore thing, 1025 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 1: but I just I think all signed point to him 1026 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,320 Speaker 1: missing the game, and I definitely think that's a major factor. 1027 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: So so if there's no Gilmore and there's no Edelman, 1028 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? And that's on top of all 1029 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 1: the guys that opted out and the way the season 1030 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 1: is going, They've got all these issues on the offense. 1031 00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,280 Speaker 1: They don't have anyone. You know, I'm actually being forced 1032 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 1: to play Damian Harris in this game. You can run 1033 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:25,360 Speaker 1: on the Bills in fantasy. Yes, I have a litany 1034 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 1: of injuries and bye weeks, so I'm having to play 1035 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 1: Damian Harris. But I looked over his college stats to 1036 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 1: warm my heart a little bit. He was a beast 1037 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: at Alabama. Some might work out. Okay, So this is interesting. 1038 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 1: So I went to the Bill's injury report on the 1039 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:42,120 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's website, and usually it shows the Bills and 1040 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 1: then their opponent below. There's no injury report for the Patriots. 1041 00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 1: I just tried to google it. It It doesn't exist. Is 1042 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: Belichicks Classic Belichick? Belichick just playing games here? This is wild? 1043 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I gotta say it is a Jets fan. 1044 00:54:55,600 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 1: I didn't see Mike. Is it Rice or Reese? Uh? 1045 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 1: He had written that. Uh, you know, Gilmore is one 1046 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 1: of eleven Patriots players that is questionable for the game. 1047 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,760 Speaker 1: But interest again, you know that that's all. You know. Again, 1048 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 1: we're looking at the trade deadline coming up. Gilmore, when 1049 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 1: is the trade deadline? Weeks I thought it was Tuesday. 1050 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,400 Speaker 1: Oh man, Oh you know what, that could be good Tuesday. 1051 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: Tuesday is a perfect day for the NBAH NFL trade deadline. 1052 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: By the way, when we come back, we'll do college football. 1053 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: But I want to talk. I tweeted something about Michael 1054 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,279 Speaker 1: Thomas of the Saints. You guys know, he hasn't played 1055 00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 1: in six weeks and he supposedly is injured. It's it's 1056 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 1: not about the injury. That that story in the Athletic 1057 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,399 Speaker 1: from a couple I think it was two weeks ago 1058 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:47,760 Speaker 1: really hurt Michael Thomas's pride and I'm told he doesn't 1059 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 1: want to play again until he gets an apology from 1060 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 1: the Saints. He showed up at practice Thursday and it 1061 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 1: was like, all right, Michael Thomas back right Friday, no 1062 00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: practice out. He's like, he's pissed. They made him look 1063 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 1: like a terrible person. And it's interesting because he went 1064 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 1: on social media after that and wrote about you know, 1065 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:10,319 Speaker 1: the snake blah blah blah. And this is a guy 1066 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 1: who was a massive contract and he is one of 1067 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,720 Speaker 1: the best player. I think he led the league in receiving, 1068 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 1: and Sean Payton and company they're upset at him. Because 1069 00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 1: of his behavior. In turn, he's upset that they leaked it. 1070 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,880 Speaker 1: And there's like this Mexican standoff where they're pointing guns 1071 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 1: at each other. It's like, oh jeez, how are we 1072 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: getting out of as well? It ain't gonna be pretty. 1073 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna I don't know. I'm putting it in at 1074 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 1: like Michael Thomas has traded and I know that sounds 1075 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,839 Speaker 1: crazy and there's dead money, but Gavin, think about this. 1076 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: If you are an NFL team with a quarterback on 1077 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: a rookie deal, you make moves for wide receivers. Okay. 1078 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:53,840 Speaker 1: We have seen Kyler Murray get Hopkins, Josh Allen got digs. Okay, 1079 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,239 Speaker 1: I mean Miami's got twa dude. They make a move 1080 00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 1: for Michael Thomas. I'm just floating out Lamar Jackson on 1081 00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,720 Speaker 1: his rookie deal. They have no receivers. They're so desperate 1082 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 1: they just added des Bryant. That's desperation, all right. Coming 1083 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: up next, we'll do that. We'll do a lot of 1084 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 1: college football. Um, Holy County Nebraska versus the Big Ten. 1085 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 1: That was the story in August. It's back Nebraska versus 1086 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: the Big Ten. Interesting and of course Trevor Lawrence and 1087 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 1: COVID will do all that. Next to here on Fox 1088 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, perk up your rears for Farmers policy purse 1089 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 1: from discount too added benefits.

Halloween music courtesy of the Great Iowa Sam. 1094 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,360 Speaker 1: I would saym will go to you for a big 1095 00:57:52,880 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 1: feels like somebody's watching me. Um little Rockwell for you 1096 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,480 Speaker 1: rock Well. I'm not familiar with their work, but I 1097 00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: do know this song. It was just a single guy actually, 1098 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 1: but this song was incredibly popular because that's Michael Jackson 1099 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 1: on the course. Um okay, So two quick questions. First 1100 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: of all, this is important. What's the deal with the 1101 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: time change tomorrow? Is that thing still happening? Are we 1102 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: done with the time change? Why are we done? Why? 1103 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:23,080 Speaker 1: Why are we doing the time? Do you want the 1104 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: time change? We did get an extra hours, I did 1105 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 1: not know that. Don't take this from us, and it's 1106 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,920 Speaker 1: dark by two o'clock. The only people it sucks for 1107 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 1: is the overnight radio people later tonight who have to 1108 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,880 Speaker 1: work an extra hour. No way, really you do, like 1109 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 1: what one am to two am? And then it just 1110 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 1: the clock goes right, right, So tomorrow I get an 1111 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 1: extra hour of sleep, and so that I mean it'll 1112 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 1: be lighter in the morning. Yeah, I do. Wish it 1113 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 1: meant an extra hour of football. Um that's you know, 1114 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 1: I gotta say, because I we've during the pandemic. If 1115 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: you guys go listen back to what um April May June. 1116 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,240 Speaker 1: This show was a little different, right, there was no 1117 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,760 Speaker 1: sports happening, and I was struggling to get in a 1118 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:18,000 Speaker 1: rhythm and you know, get back to some routine stuff 1119 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 1: because I'm a big routine guy. So then I started 1120 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 1: running and it was great because I'm running. Wake up 1121 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 1: in at like six o'clock, six ten, and I would 1122 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 1: run and it would be light outside. It was beautiful. 1123 00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 1: Now it's like freezing in the morning and it's super dark, 1124 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm not I don't want to run. 1125 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 1: So I was doing almost four miles and then I 1126 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 1: started to dial it back in September once football perked 1127 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 1: up because I'm getting tired, like I'm working way more. 1128 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 1: And then I would do okay, I'm just gonna do 1129 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 1: the five k. I would do three miles, and I 1130 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, screw that. I'm just gonna 1131 00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 1: try to sprint for a mile and jog back to 1132 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 1: my car. And now I'm just like, do I even 1133 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 1: want to get out of bed? And I'm just like 1134 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 1: settling for the push ups, sit ups in some lifting. 1135 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: But now that it's going to be bright in the morning, 1136 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 1: maybe I will start running again. But that also means 1137 01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 1: it's going to be dark at what like five o'clock. Yeah, 1138 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 1: I'll get dark. Ear. Yeah, I don't love that. Um, 1139 01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to college football. I always say, 1140 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 1: apparently there's some good games today. Yeah, there's I don't 1141 01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 1: know how I was state. Penn State is a good game. 1142 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: Penn State lost last week gonna Indiana. Yeah, they're just 1143 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 1: not good. Right, Well, it's a good game, I think, 1144 01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:34,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you have I think Penn State by and 1145 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: large wasn't expecting that kind of fight out of Indiana, 1146 01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: even though Indiana had an eight and four regular season 1147 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 1: record last year. Yeah, I mean maybe they were looking ahead. 1148 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: I mean it's still you're you're starting the season off 1149 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,480 Speaker 1: with league play. And I think that's just so tough 1150 01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: for some teams because they really need a team from 1151 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 1: the MAC or the Sundell, Yeah, to get to to 1152 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 1: get the rust off. So uh, Penn State is still 1153 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,800 Speaker 1: a good team. Um, and this should be a great, 1154 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,600 Speaker 1: great game today. Yeah, all five top five teams in 1155 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 1: action today. The spread is is what eleven on that 1156 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 1: one ten and a half eleven years. I had a 1157 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 1: guest on my daily podcast, Um and you guys don't 1158 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:13,440 Speaker 1: sports Cheetah a k A. His real names Preston, and 1159 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 1: he's come on the show before. He's like a college 1160 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 1: football like successful gambler, like real big, big money, you know. 1161 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 1: And he said he's been taking a beating. He almost 1162 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 1: stopped betting on college football because there's just so much uncertainty. 1163 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 1: I know, earlier I said I liked the to uncertainty, 1164 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 1: but I don't love college football uncertainty. I'm looking up 1165 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 1: at the Fox Noon Show and they're just like flashing 1166 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 1: on the screen. Oh, this guy is not gonna play today. 1167 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,800 Speaker 1: This guy's out. It's like, did you see that Rondell Moore? 1168 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 1: I did not see that Perdu guy. He's out, Like 1169 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 1: that's a big move, Like he's a good player. He 1170 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 1: was actually out for there. He was actually out for 1171 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: their first game against Iowa. But they still have some weapons. 1172 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 1: They have some some good players for produce. No actually 1173 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:02,600 Speaker 1: perdue one without Rondelle. Yes. Um. The thing is, though, 1174 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 1: is that as much as that would make sense, that 1175 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 1: that team might struggle. I remember when Kansas State, Yeah, 1176 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:11,600 Speaker 1: all these guys missing and then they found like, Oklahoma, 1177 01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 1: that's are you doing a lot of college football gambling? 1178 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 1: I have some wages in today in West Virginia. You know, 1179 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,800 Speaker 1: somebody just sent me a text on is it West Virginia? 1180 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 1: Kansas State? Okay, Mountaineers went from three to six. Apparently 1181 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 1: there's big, big money on West Virginia. What are you 1182 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 1: seeing there or do you have information? What's going on? 1183 01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:35,160 Speaker 1: I got some information from my guys, um. And look, 1184 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 1: I actually bet it twice because I didn't realize that 1185 01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 1: I had. I bet it at three and then I 1186 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 1: bet it at three and a half because I forgot 1187 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 1: I had already bet it. Um. So we're gonna we're 1188 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 1: gonna enjoy that one. Um. Later tonight you have Texas 1189 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:49,919 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. I think that's gonna be a good game. 1190 01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:53,360 Speaker 1: Texas looking to get back on track. Ohio State Penn State. 1191 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 1: This is always one of the best games of the year. Right, 1192 01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 1: You got the white alley. Yeah, it'll be interesting to 1193 01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 1: see that with you know, the state of things right now. 1194 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 1: No fans, no white out, no only friends and family 1195 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 1: of the team. Yeah. Give me Ohiose Date baby, Um 1196 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 1: and again I I didn't really watch Ohiose Date last 1197 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 1: week except for the first drive I saw.

Our next guest, Pat forty, 1226 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,320 Speaker 1: you know Imy the ESPN Yahoo s I now at 1227 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: s I Dominating, wrote a great column on Nebraska. Pat. 1228 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 1: Good morning, how are you hey? I'm doing well. Jason, 1229 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 1: how are you? I'm good Uh, you know, I would 1230 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 1: say I'm better than Nebraska. Um, you really took them 1231 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 1: behind the wood shed here. It's interesting because I you know, 1232 01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 1: I read your piece, which is good, and and I 1233 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 1: thought about it, and I'm like, you know, what is 1234 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: the do do Do they really want out? Or why 1235 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 1: are they raising such a fuss in the stink here? 1236 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,480 Speaker 1: It's odd? I don't know. I mean, that's kind of 1237 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 1: it was my point in the column. I was a 1238 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: bit perplexed. I don't know whether they are just that unhappy, 1239 01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:34,280 Speaker 1: or if they're tone death, or if they're used to 1240 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:37,160 Speaker 1: people bowing and scraping in front of them because they've 1241 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: been Nebraska, which they haven't really been. You know, all 1242 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:43,720 Speaker 1: capital letters in Nebraska for twenty five years now, so 1243 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 1: that's outdated. But they just there seems to be just 1244 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,919 Speaker 1: a real disconnect with the rest of the Big Ken. 1245 01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 1: I mean, they may have some allies there Ohio State, 1246 01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 1: I believe, and and maybe another one or two. But 1247 01:05:57,240 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: for the most part, I think there's a lot of 1248 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 1: people I've talked around the Big ten was just like, man, 1249 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: what are they doing? You know? And I mean, they 1250 01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 1: really haven't done much to to earn a position of 1251 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,240 Speaker 1: influence within the league because they've been in it, they 1252 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,200 Speaker 1: have under achieved battling. Yeah, now, you know, I will 1253 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 1: say the twenty one day COVID holdout is that flexible? 1254 01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 1: Are they looking at adjusting that because as we've seen 1255 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: an NBA, NFL, Major League Baseball. You know what we 1256 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 1: initially thought back in you know, February, March April, uh, 1257 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 1: you know this COVID, Oh my gosh, And now it's like, okay, 1258 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 1: it's it's it's in most places a weaker strain on 1259 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,480 Speaker 1: the young people and they should be good. We're seeing 1260 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is going to be back in what in 1261 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 1: ten days? Is the Big ten flexible on twenty one 1262 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 1: or is that that just not moving? Well, we'll see. 1263 01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be revisited. My colleague Sports Illustrated 1264 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,800 Speaker 1: Ross Dollinger had a good story talking to some people 1265 01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 1: who have you know, done the research on this, and 1266 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,520 Speaker 1: the twenty one day thing was largely for you know, 1267 01:06:56,680 --> 01:07:00,240 Speaker 1: cardiac testing and to make sure that there were no 1268 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 1: heart issues. And the people that have have done some 1269 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:04,560 Speaker 1: of that work are now saying, you know what, we 1270 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 1: don't need that long and so I think there will 1271 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 1: probably be a Porsche to revisit that. Are they going 1272 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 1: to change it? I don't know, you know, I think 1273 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 1: there's there are a lot of people at the presidential level. 1274 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 1: We're somewhat dragged into playing football to begin with. And 1275 01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 1: now if you ask them to come back and push 1276 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 1: things back even further to enable football, so to speak, 1277 01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 1: there there might not that might not go very well. 1278 01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 1: But if they can put a convincing argument on the 1279 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:34,920 Speaker 1: table for why one is just not we don't need it, 1280 01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 1: then I think, you say, from a football perspective, then 1281 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: definitely let's take a look at it, because twenty one 1282 01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 1: days out is some of these players we talk like 1283 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:47,280 Speaker 1: Pat forty s I dot com Pat listen, I'm a 1284 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,280 Speaker 1: college football guy, love the sport. This has been a 1285 01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:53,240 Speaker 1: tough season to get in into it because of the 1286 01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 1: COVID situation, just so many teams, so many players, and 1287 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, the different leagues starting at different times at 1288 01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 1: back twelve US is coming back next weekend. I gotta say, 1289 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, to to your friends who are casual fans, 1290 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 1: what are they saying in regard to college football? Are 1291 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 1: they just not in tune as much as they usually are? Yeah, 1292 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I think the ratings pretty well 1293 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 1: reflect that. For the most part, they're down, and I just, 1294 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 1: you know, I think people are so disoriented in general 1295 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 1: about the sporting calendar. And then you know, as you said, 1296 01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:27,599 Speaker 1: I mean, there's nothing has been uniform. Some people started 1297 01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: Labor Day weekend, some people started end of September, Big 1298 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 1: ten started last week, Pack twelve starts next week. I mean, 1299 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:37,680 Speaker 1: so it's just all over the map. And given the 1300 01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 1: blood of other sports that we're going on, especially early 1301 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 1: on when you had, um, the NBA is still playing, 1302 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 1: and then you've got the NFL, and then of course 1303 01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 1: you got baseball playoffs, I just think it's been hard 1304 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 1: for people to really kind of latch onto this. Maybe 1305 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,760 Speaker 1: that will change here in the coming weeks as we 1306 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 1: start getting a little you know, a few more games 1307 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 1: under a belt with everybody playing. But yeah, I think 1308 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 1: there's in certainly a disconnect between the casual fans in 1309 01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:05,840 Speaker 1: the sport. Uh. Pat, If I had to ask you 1310 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,559 Speaker 1: how much you would wager that Trevor Lawrence plays against 1311 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 1: Notre Dame, is there a number that you have in mind, 1312 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 1: because you know, everybody thinks that Dabo Sween is gonna 1313 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 1: do anything in his power to get Trevor Lawrence on 1314 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:21,719 Speaker 1: the field for the Notre Dame game. Right, Yeah, yeah, 1315 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 1: I expect I very strongly expect him to play. According 1316 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:29,519 Speaker 1: to what I was told by people there Clemson that 1317 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,719 Speaker 1: his ten day window, which is the A c HE rule, 1318 01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 1: will close on Thursday Friday next week, and so he 1319 01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:39,439 Speaker 1: should be able to play. Now, that's if he's feeling okay, 1320 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 1: if he you know, has has gotten rid of his 1321 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 1: symptoms and all that sort of thing. But then also 1322 01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, okay, he's gonna have maybe one practice. Now, 1323 01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:50,839 Speaker 1: if there's anybody you could throw out there without practice, 1324 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 1: you would think it's Trevor Moore. But you know, he 1325 01:09:53,720 --> 01:09:55,720 Speaker 1: may not be super sharp at least right away in 1326 01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,679 Speaker 1: that game. But I have every expectation that he will 1327 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 1: play at pat biggest game today, Ohio State Penn State. 1328 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,360 Speaker 1: Do the Nitney Lions have a chance here? They did 1329 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,600 Speaker 1: not look particularly sharp in the loss to Indiana, and 1330 01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 1: now they don't have the home crowd in Happy Valley. Uh, 1331 01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: going against a Ohio State juggernaut that you know, basically 1332 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 1: has the number two pick in the draft, and then 1333 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:20,679 Speaker 1: they reload with five star guys out all across the board. Yeah, yeah, 1334 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,320 Speaker 1: I mean you know, on paper, Ohiose State is two 1335 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 1: touchdowns better, and they may well be. On the field. 1336 01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:29,360 Speaker 1: The only thing, you know, Penn State had some kind 1337 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:33,280 Speaker 1: of abnormal malfunctions last week, you know, I mean, like 1338 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,679 Speaker 1: they're kickers who are good kickers, missed three field goals. 1339 01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:37,679 Speaker 1: You don't expect that to happen again. If they're gonna 1340 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: get chances that you think they're gonna make them a 1341 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,160 Speaker 1: muff punt, you take care you you clean that up. Uh, 1342 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 1: you clean up some of the penalties, and and all 1343 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,280 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're at least in the game. Uh. 1344 01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:50,479 Speaker 1: Do they have the talent that Ohio State does new 1345 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: So if they play sloppy again like last week, then yeah, 1346 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:57,240 Speaker 1: they could get blown out. But if they play the 1347 01:10:57,280 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 1: way they usually do in Happy Valley against the House, 1348 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 1: which is really inspired, I would expect it to be 1349 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 1: a competitive game. Um, pat quick thoughts on the playoffs. 1350 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,920 Speaker 1: Do you think there's any chance a PAC twelve team 1351 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,799 Speaker 1: gets in the playoff or has that already been determined 1352 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 1: and I missed the news. No, I think they've got 1353 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,200 Speaker 1: a chance, you know, I mean, I don't think that 1354 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:18,600 Speaker 1: it's out of a question. If you look, you know, 1355 01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,240 Speaker 1: the Big twelve is almost all but run itself out 1356 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:25,040 Speaker 1: of the playoffs. You know, so you can almost draw 1357 01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 1: a line to that league other than maybe Oklahoma State. 1358 01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:30,800 Speaker 1: Uh So that's one league that's out of the mix. 1359 01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:33,040 Speaker 1: So you know, usually it's five leagues and you're trying 1360 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 1: to find four teams out of five. Well, now it 1361 01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:37,680 Speaker 1: could be four out of four. Now you could have 1362 01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,679 Speaker 1: a Cincinnati pop up. You could have a second place 1363 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,080 Speaker 1: team in the SEC or Big Ken that looks good 1364 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 1: and maybe he has a better resume than a Pac 1365 01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:48,400 Speaker 1: twelve champion. But if I'm the Pack twelve, I'm sitting 1366 01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 1: here saying fewer games is better and starting later is better. 1367 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna have a chance at this thing, is provided 1368 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 1: if they could get their games in. Interesting. This just 1369 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 1: seems like the first year where nobody's gonna be saying, hey, 1370 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,519 Speaker 1: eight team play off, A team left. I don't think. 1371 01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:03,600 Speaker 1: I mean, pat, I know Cincinnati looks good, but come on, 1372 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:06,759 Speaker 1: or do they have a shot of getting in? Well, 1373 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we'll see how it plays out. If they 1374 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 1: end up, I believe they'd be eleven anlyst. They play 1375 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 1: all their games and the A A c is pretty good. 1376 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: And you know, if if the if the Big twelve 1377 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:19,520 Speaker 1: stays the way it is, if the Pac twelve cannibalizes 1378 01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:23,000 Speaker 1: itself and nobody's you know, better than five and two 1379 01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:25,800 Speaker 1: or whatever the case would be, Uh, then why not 1380 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:28,240 Speaker 1: an eleven and no Cincinnati? I you know, I think 1381 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,760 Speaker 1: they could have an argument. Wow. Alright, Pat forty s 1382 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: I dot com.

Listen, as a radio host, 1389 01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 1: a guy who goes on TV and writes about gambling, 1390 01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:54,080 Speaker 1: I can be impartial as well as much as I want.

Uh, 1426 01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 1: college football kicks off in fifteen minutos um, pretty good slate. 1427 01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:10,519 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how much you guys have 1428 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:14,719 Speaker 1: followed college basketball, but it's so comical. The college basketball 1429 01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:17,519 Speaker 1: reporters are breathless with Oh, this tournament's gonna happen, and 1430 01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:19,400 Speaker 1: this is they want to do this, and it's I'm like, 1431 01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 1: are these guys in some kind of fantasy world? This 1432 01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:27,360 Speaker 1: idea that college basketball is just gonna happen? I mean 1433 01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:33,439 Speaker 1: it's laughable. No start. I'm anticipating a full season really, 1434 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:35,960 Speaker 1: I mean outside of yes, and maybe some postponements and 1435 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, cancelations, but I'm expecting they started and they 1436 01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 1: finished it. So there's more traveled in college football, right, Um, 1437 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:47,880 Speaker 1: there's obviously more games. There's a preseason tournament that was 1438 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:51,880 Speaker 1: gonna be on ESPN, and ESPN backed out this week 1439 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:54,760 Speaker 1: and now the tournament is not happening. It's like, I 1440 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:57,680 Speaker 1: think it's it's great. Listen. I love college hoops. It's 1441 01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,000 Speaker 1: great to think about it as oh, yeah, college basket 1442 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:04,400 Speaker 1: was awesome. The reality is pulling off that season is 1443 01:16:04,439 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 1: gonna be tough. We didn't even talk about this from 1444 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 1: the World Series. Justin Turner pulled from Game six. We 1445 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 1: later find out he had a positive COVID test. Whoa 1446 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:16,759 Speaker 1: played the whole game in the dugout around his teammates 1447 01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:21,320 Speaker 1: and he had it. If there had been a Game seven, 1448 01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 1: let's say the race had won, that the manager had 1449 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 1: not pulled Blakes. Now Justin Turner obviously would not be 1450 01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:31,799 Speaker 1: available and everyone else would have had to be tested. 1451 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:35,719 Speaker 1: Would the Dodgers are what are five other players tested positive? 1452 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 1: Would they have pushed the World Series back made the 1453 01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 1: Dodgers play backups like, I don't know, it's it's funny. 1454 01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:44,000 Speaker 1: We haven't heard anything. Justin Turners on the field after 1455 01:16:44,040 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 1: the game and it's like, oh my gosh, this guy 1456 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:49,559 Speaker 1: has tested positive for COVID. Baseball is trying to get 1457 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 1: him off the field. He refused to go. He's celebrating 1458 01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:55,640 Speaker 1: the first World World Series winning like thirty years and 1459 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,240 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, well, did anyone else test positive? We're 1460 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 1: not gonna find out. They're not gonna admit they don't. 1461 01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: They're not telling us they're back with their families presumably. Um, 1462 01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 1: it's just a mess. It's the whole thing sucks. And 1463 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,559 Speaker 1: let me go to the NBA real quick short topic. 1464 01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:19,200 Speaker 1: Darryl Morey was jettisoned by the Rockets. Now it was mutual. Apparently, 1465 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: you could argue Darryl Morey looked at the roster, knows 1466 01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 1: the owner is financially in rough shape given the pandemic 1467 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 1: and how much money his non NBA businesses have lost. 1468 01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,240 Speaker 1: For Todd to go look it up for todda however 1469 01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,880 Speaker 1: you say his last name. Brian Winhorst has talked about 1470 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: this head length. There's a few owners in the league 1471 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 1: who have been really financially just beaten down by COVID 1472 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 1: and Darryl Moore is like, you know what, I can't 1473 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:51,560 Speaker 1: pull this off. I gotta get out of here. Um 1474 01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:54,360 Speaker 1: And he just resurfaced this week with of all teams, 1475 01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 1: the seventies sixers. Is that a major chocker? Do you get? 1476 01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:06,080 Speaker 1: I know you followed the league. Darryl Morey. Everybody thought 1477 01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:07,880 Speaker 1: it was he was done because of the China tweet, 1478 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 1: Hong Kong tweet. And he's done, And like, wait a minute, 1479 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:15,760 Speaker 1: Darryl more is going to Philly. It's a weird fit. 1480 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:19,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how that works with Elton Brand. I 1481 01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 1: don't know. It's very odd, like beyond like this is 1482 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:30,080 Speaker 1: a team where you have Joel Embiid. Daryl Morey doesn't 1483 01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 1: like centers. He traded away. He was always going small 1484 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 1: with the Rockets. Right now he goes to the biggest 1485 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,599 Speaker 1: team in the league. Elton Brand, of course, made a 1486 01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 1: couple of bad moves last offseason. I thought he would 1487 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,120 Speaker 1: be toast. I mean, he might as well be, right, 1488 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:49,720 Speaker 1: Darryl more He's coming in and I just what's the 1489 01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:52,519 Speaker 1: end game? You want? Three point shooting? Ben Simmons don't 1490 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:58,800 Speaker 1: shoot threes. What are they doing? Something just something seismic 1491 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:03,040 Speaker 1: coming to the Sixers. Maybe it's like the Costanza thing, 1492 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: you know, they're just doing the complete opposite. And maybe 1493 01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:11,160 Speaker 1: Morey's gonna flip change his ways. Um, I don't know. 1494 01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:13,600 Speaker 1: It makes me wonder now if they're gonna say we 1495 01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 1: can build around and be because he shoots threes, let's 1496 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:19,760 Speaker 1: trade Ben Simmons. I mean that was my initial read. 1497 01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:21,840 Speaker 1: I was like, well, there's no way. I mean, Morey 1498 01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:26,680 Speaker 1: has Al Horford and Beat and Simmons, three guys who 1499 01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,320 Speaker 1: don't shoot threes at all. All he wanted in Houston 1500 01:19:29,400 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 1: was three point jackers. I don't know, guys, this this 1501 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:36,479 Speaker 1: is crazy. The league is bananas. And and remember I 1502 01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:38,680 Speaker 1: asked us to Dan Shaughnessy about Gordon Hayward on the 1503 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 1: move potentially and all, you know what, we'll try to 1504 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 1: get win horsed on here at some point when whenever. 1505 01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:47,719 Speaker 1: And b I don't even know when free agency starts. 1506 01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:51,759 Speaker 1: I mean it's November tomorrow that they want the season 1507 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:54,240 Speaker 1: to start in early December. That seems like I mean 1508 01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,320 Speaker 1: a total pipe dree. I mean, you had Lebron playing 1509 01:19:57,320 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 1: into the middle of October and now he's gonna come 1510 01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:01,920 Speaker 1: back and start playing after two months. I don't They don't. 1511 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 1: NBA doesn't even have a plan for next season of 1512 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:06,320 Speaker 1: are you gonna be home games? Are you gonna go 1513 01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:08,600 Speaker 1: eight two to seventy two? There? Is it gonna be 1514 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,840 Speaker 1: a regional bubble? Like I don't know. I mean, that's 1515 01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:15,640 Speaker 1: why this college basketball and n b A and like 1516 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:21,280 Speaker 1: I just I don't know, Guys. I hate to say this. 1517 01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 1: I don't think COVID's going anywhere. This idea that we're 1518 01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:28,920 Speaker 1: getting some vaccine in short order, I don't know. I 1519 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:30,519 Speaker 1: hate to say it. I think we're gonna be wearing 1520 01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 1: masks for at least another eight months, you know, all right, 1521 01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm starting to get upset, so we will just reset 1522 01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:45,240 Speaker 1: at the top of the hour. We're gonna do NFL 1523 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:47,880 Speaker 1: picks with t A. He's gonna join us, and then 1524 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,760 Speaker 1: hopefully we'll get our NBA prospect here at nine. I'm 1525 01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:54,559 Speaker 1: curious what has that process been. Like, I've heard of 1526 01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:58,560 Speaker 1: some rogue NBA um work workout games out here in 1527 01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:00,720 Speaker 1: l A. I'm trying to get access to of them. 1528 01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:02,559 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm cool enough to pull it off. 1529 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm trying, but we got one hour ago.

I can't believe the ranked number seven, 1535 01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,360 Speaker 1: Pat Forty earlier in the show said they are a 1536 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:30,960 Speaker 1: dark horse playoff to you, it just sounds funny Cincinnati 1537 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 1: in the playoff. But a lot of football left to 1538 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,040 Speaker 1: be played for now. Oh, I forgot to say this. 1539 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 1: I am coming to you live from the Geico Fox 1540 01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:41,160 Speaker 1: Sports Radio studios.

I don't know, 1548 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,080 Speaker 1: t A, are you doing any college football handicapping? I 1549 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,479 Speaker 1: knew you're in Ohio state guy. Yeah, you know this 1550 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:09,720 Speaker 1: year I've kind of backed off. Hey, Jason, first off, 1551 01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 1: but I backed off a little bit on college football. 1552 01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:14,840 Speaker 1: I do do like this over in the Buckeye game 1553 01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 1: to night. I don't see the team. Well, I don't 1554 01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: think either team will be slowed down at all, But 1555 01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:22,280 Speaker 1: in general, no, I've I've had a backed off. It's 1556 01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:25,680 Speaker 1: just too many COVID cases. This guy's opting out. It's 1557 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,840 Speaker 1: just really hard to candycaps here. All right, So let's 1558 01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 1: get to the NFL. This is kind of a weather 1559 01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 1: weekend with when wins around twenty five for many games. 1560 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,240 Speaker 1: I believe Cleveland is included in there. T A. I 1561 01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 1: gotta say, Um, I've had a really good run. I'm 1562 01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 1: in the top two in the circuit contest. But this 1563 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 1: is the weekend where I'm really nervous. I keep looking around. 1564 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:49,479 Speaker 1: I hate all the games, and I'll start with one 1565 01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 1: that I like. And I have a feeling based on 1566 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:53,360 Speaker 1: what I've seen from your social media activity, we're on 1567 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:56,240 Speaker 1: different sides here. Um, I am going to start with 1568 01:22:56,320 --> 01:23:00,000 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks, favored by three at home. This lie 1569 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:03,280 Speaker 1: was six last week. It feels like an overreaction. I 1570 01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,160 Speaker 1: know Seattle can't stop anybody, but that's through the air 1571 01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:08,759 Speaker 1: and San Frans beating a lot of people on the ground. 1572 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:12,280 Speaker 1: Seattle has a top ten d v O a run defense. UM, 1573 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,240 Speaker 1: unclear if Jamal Adams is back, you know, ultimately, I 1574 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:17,439 Speaker 1: don't know that it matters because they've stink on defense. 1575 01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:21,479 Speaker 1: But Russ coming off the three interception game feels like 1576 01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:23,800 Speaker 1: a good bounce back spot against a Patriots team. I 1577 01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 1: think is just still a little bit overrated. You know, 1578 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:29,360 Speaker 1: I I took San Francisco back on I think it 1579 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 1: was either Monday or Tuesday. When at three and a half, 1580 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 1: you know, at three a little different story. Um. I 1581 01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 1: think these teams, I mean, these teams played close games, 1582 01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:39,800 Speaker 1: like last year was an overtime game at Seattle barely 1583 01:23:39,840 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 1: won and then you had that you know, goal line 1584 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:44,599 Speaker 1: stand that San Francisco had to win by five. So 1585 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:46,439 Speaker 1: you know they're gonna play close games. That's why I 1586 01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:49,840 Speaker 1: thought getting over a field goal was was a good number. Um. Yeah, 1587 01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:51,799 Speaker 1: I mean, look, the middle of the field is always 1588 01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:55,280 Speaker 1: open now for Seattle. Um, if Adams plays, it could 1589 01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:57,519 Speaker 1: be a different story. But you know, when you got 1590 01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 1: Kiddle and you've got Shanahan designing. You know, these these 1591 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 1: receivers and running backs over the middle of the field, 1592 01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:04,720 Speaker 1: that they give an advantage. Like I said, I think 1593 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:05,960 Speaker 1: I just think it was a number of kind of 1594 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:08,120 Speaker 1: value play. I think San Francisco is too good in 1595 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:12,639 Speaker 1: Seattle's defense. This is too bad. And Seattle plays so 1596 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 1: many close games. You know, they haven't won They've won 1597 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 1: one game in the last I think seventeen uh spanning 1598 01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 1: back the last year, they've won one game in the 1599 01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 1: last seventeen by more than eight points. So they keep 1600 01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 1: games close, doesn't matter who it is, they keep games interesting. 1601 01:24:28,120 --> 01:24:29,720 Speaker 1: So if if you can get over the field goal, 1602 01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 1: I like the Niners at three, I'm kind of indifferent. UM. 1603 01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't hate your pick, but I'm 1604 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 1: not sure it's San Francisco or pass. Let me ask 1605 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,800 Speaker 1: if that defensive lineman did not jump on the field goal, 1606 01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:45,280 Speaker 1: allowing Arizona to go and get the touchdown. UM, and 1607 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:47,600 Speaker 1: and Seattle ends up winning that game. What do you 1608 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,400 Speaker 1: think this is four or four and a half, sat 1609 01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 1: three and a half? It might be a look. The 1610 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:57,559 Speaker 1: market ends up driving these um you know, driving these 1611 01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:00,639 Speaker 1: uh spreads, so like they're smarter than this. It doesn't 1612 01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:02,559 Speaker 1: even matter what it opens. Like I think, you know, 1613 01:25:02,600 --> 01:25:04,960 Speaker 1: the market would have been smart enough to figure that 1614 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,040 Speaker 1: stuff out, like things like that, Like I don't think 1615 01:25:07,160 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 1: you know, a real handicapper who can influence the line 1616 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,160 Speaker 1: doesn't really care about that stuff in terms of, you know, 1617 01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 1: whether they one are lost by you know, a fingernail. 1618 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:16,880 Speaker 1: It kind of you know, how they played the game 1619 01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:20,360 Speaker 1: as all that counts. So look, the the the Seattle 1620 01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 1: Johns are a good team. They just you know, we 1621 01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 1: saw it against Minnesota. I mean they should have lost 1622 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:26,479 Speaker 1: that game out right. So like there's a lot of 1623 01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:29,200 Speaker 1: those you know, queen flip situations. They're just they're a 1624 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 1: good team, but they're not a dominant team and with 1625 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:34,280 Speaker 1: that defense, just hard to start to lay more than 1626 01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, three points. All right, I'll let you go 1627 01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:39,040 Speaker 1: next with the I guess your favorite game on the board. 1628 01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:42,960 Speaker 1: You know, my favorite game just at this at the 1629 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:44,599 Speaker 1: price that I have it at, I have the Cults 1630 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:47,120 Speaker 1: minus two and a half. Um, I think it's three 1631 01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:50,720 Speaker 1: in some spots, which obviously changes a story, but um yeah, 1632 01:25:50,800 --> 01:25:52,960 Speaker 1: the Colts. First of all, I you know, I love 1633 01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 1: the organization, but you know, they were really beat up 1634 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:58,880 Speaker 1: going into the by They missed Darius Leonard, he missed 1635 01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:03,280 Speaker 1: the last two games. Um, their defensive numbers were completely flipped. 1636 01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:04,760 Speaker 1: I mean they went from the best defense in the 1637 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,519 Speaker 1: NFL to you know, like the twentieth ranked defense in 1638 01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:10,639 Speaker 1: those two games with him out. Um, he comes back, 1639 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 1: Hee's playing. You know, left tackle Anthony Costango didn't play 1640 01:26:14,040 --> 01:26:19,200 Speaker 1: against the Browns and mild Garrett totally abused Philip Rivers. 1641 01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:21,200 Speaker 1: He you know, he came back right for the buying, 1642 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 1: so he's fully healthy. Um. You know, they're gonna probably 1643 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:27,800 Speaker 1: get Michael Pittman Jr. The rookie wide receiver from UNC back, 1644 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:30,160 Speaker 1: um to help them, you know with their big passing, 1645 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,759 Speaker 1: big passing plays. And I just think, you know, Detroit 1646 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:36,599 Speaker 1: hasn't really faced a good defense. I mean, um, since 1647 01:26:36,640 --> 01:26:38,360 Speaker 1: Week oneed with with the Bears. I mean, they faced 1648 01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:41,360 Speaker 1: a really easy schedule, I think bottom five in terms 1649 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:44,439 Speaker 1: of d v o I defensive schedules. So you know, 1650 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:47,280 Speaker 1: the last two games, they like they beat up Jacksonville 1651 01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:49,120 Speaker 1: and Atlanta, Like those are the two of the worst 1652 01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:52,120 Speaker 1: defenses in the NFL. So you finally have a test here. Um, 1653 01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:53,600 Speaker 1: So I think they're gonna be back to Earth and 1654 01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:55,680 Speaker 1: really one of the better angles. You know, not a 1655 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 1: huge trend guy, but on occasion, there are some of 1656 01:26:57,800 --> 01:26:59,880 Speaker 1: these that pop up that I like, you know, road fave, 1657 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:02,720 Speaker 1: it's off of a bye in the last handful of 1658 01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:06,080 Speaker 1: years have been really really good bet you know against 1659 01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:09,120 Speaker 1: the spread um And so you know, I think that's 1660 01:27:09,120 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 1: a case here where you get Philip Rivers gonna have 1661 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:13,479 Speaker 1: a clean pocket because there's no pass rush for Detroit, 1662 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:15,880 Speaker 1: and Rivers with a clean pocket is you know, it's 1663 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 1: totally different then you know, with a pass rush. So 1664 01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:21,559 Speaker 1: I think all of those things factor into, um, you know, 1665 01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 1: a good case for the Colts here. Yeah, no, no, 1666 01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean I don't totally disagree with that. And ta, 1667 01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:30,360 Speaker 1: you know, removing emotion from gambling is one thing that's 1668 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:32,120 Speaker 1: important and that could be tough for you with like 1669 01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 1: Ohio State probably right. But for me, I have this 1670 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,439 Speaker 1: weird attraction to the Lions. I have some futures bets 1671 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:40,920 Speaker 1: tied to them, So in my mind I'm making a 1672 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 1: case for them and it sounds great, but hearing you, 1673 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, I can't bet the Lions here, but I 1674 01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 1: don't want to bet against them, and that that's a problem, 1675 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:51,000 Speaker 1: Like you know anyway, So I passed on that. Um, 1676 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:52,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this, like I I know you're not 1677 01:27:52,720 --> 01:27:55,960 Speaker 1: gonna want to hear this. I took the Steelers at 1678 01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,200 Speaker 1: plus five and I bet him a plus four, and 1679 01:27:58,200 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna take him in the contest. I 1680 01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:04,360 Speaker 1: really like them this weekend. Um, I just listen. Baltimore 1681 01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:07,240 Speaker 1: might be great. Okay, the only good team they played 1682 01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:09,720 Speaker 1: was Kansas City. They got knocked around. They beat the 1683 01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:12,679 Speaker 1: Browns in the opener. Okay. The other teams they played 1684 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:15,639 Speaker 1: outside of Casey in Cleveland, uh six twenty one, they've 1685 01:28:15,640 --> 01:28:17,920 Speaker 1: played a lot of bad quarterbacks. And if you look 1686 01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:20,240 Speaker 1: at Lamar Jackson. I'm not a big guy on these 1687 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:23,680 Speaker 1: E p A numbers, but the last four weeks he's 1688 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,040 Speaker 1: that offense is ranked in like the bottom ten against 1689 01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:29,479 Speaker 1: not great teams. Lamar has been under two d yards passing. 1690 01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:31,840 Speaker 1: I know he hasn't needed it. I just if he 1691 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 1: needs it this week. Because you can't run on on 1692 01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:36,799 Speaker 1: the Steelers Derrick Henry help the seventy five yards seven 1693 01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:39,880 Speaker 1: of his carries last week negative or zero yards. I 1694 01:28:39,880 --> 01:28:42,160 Speaker 1: mean this Pittsburgh run defense. Let's say they bottle up 1695 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 1: Dobbins and gust the bus and Lamar because uh, you know, 1696 01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:49,760 Speaker 1: obviously Ingram doesn't look like he's playing. Can Lamar beat 1697 01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:51,920 Speaker 1: you through the air? Do they have the weapons? Is 1698 01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,120 Speaker 1: a team that just went out and added des Bryant? 1699 01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:57,560 Speaker 1: Um who is isn't gonna play this weekend? I don't think, um. 1700 01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 1: I I just I'm sure Baltimore is good. I don't 1701 01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:02,960 Speaker 1: think they're fourteen and two last year good. But I 1702 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:04,840 Speaker 1: need to see it, and I think I'm taking four 1703 01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:08,120 Speaker 1: points here. Well, here's here's my question. So you started 1704 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,280 Speaker 1: off saying that you know who is Baltimore beaten? And 1705 01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:12,720 Speaker 1: you gave the combined records of those teams, Well, why 1706 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:14,599 Speaker 1: don't you do the same with Pittsburgh because their their 1707 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:16,439 Speaker 1: strength of schedule is actually worse. I mean, look at 1708 01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:18,519 Speaker 1: the look at the teams that they've faced. I mean 1709 01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:22,360 Speaker 1: you're talking about the Giant, Denver, Houston, Philly, the Browns. 1710 01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:24,120 Speaker 1: I mean Tennessee was a good win last week, but 1711 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:26,679 Speaker 1: we know Tennessee is not as good as the record indicates, 1712 01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:29,040 Speaker 1: and they almost blew that game. So you know, you 1713 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:30,640 Speaker 1: could say the same thing there. I mean, who's the 1714 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 1: best defense that the defense exactly. So here here's my 1715 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:37,679 Speaker 1: case for for the Ravens because I'm on the Ravens 1716 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:40,719 Speaker 1: at three and a half. Um. Okay, yeah, Lamar Jackson 1717 01:29:40,720 --> 01:29:43,439 Speaker 1: has struggled especially lately, right, but he has he has 1718 01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:45,599 Speaker 1: a bad knee injury, or not a bad knee injury, 1719 01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:47,559 Speaker 1: but he's had, you know, a knee injury. He almost 1720 01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:51,679 Speaker 1: didn't play against Cincinnati, um, and he you know, didn't 1721 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:53,400 Speaker 1: run at all. You had two carries in that game. 1722 01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:56,320 Speaker 1: He was obviously banged up. He got a little bit 1723 01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:58,240 Speaker 1: better against Philadelphia is the next week and ran for 1724 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:00,320 Speaker 1: over a hundred yards. But now he's got a full 1725 01:30:00,320 --> 01:30:03,240 Speaker 1: week off, so he's gonna be a that's going to 1726 01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 1: change things for them. Okay, John Harbor off of buy 1727 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 1: nine or four against the spread, right, he's really good. 1728 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:11,000 Speaker 1: You have two weeks to prepare. I mean, of all 1729 01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:12,760 Speaker 1: the games you have two weeks to prepare for, this 1730 01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:14,920 Speaker 1: is the one you want to prepare for. Okay, and 1731 01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:16,720 Speaker 1: then you look, the Steelers are gonna play back to 1732 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:18,960 Speaker 1: back road games and tough road games. I mean, Tennessee 1733 01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:20,719 Speaker 1: is a tough you know, it's a tough game there. 1734 01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:22,360 Speaker 1: They had to hold off and they got to go 1735 01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:25,240 Speaker 1: back on the road again against against Baltimore. Um, and 1736 01:30:25,280 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 1: look at let's look at Ben big Ben right. I 1737 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:29,759 Speaker 1: mean everyone's talking about m v P, which is just laughable. 1738 01:30:29,800 --> 01:30:32,959 Speaker 1: I mean the guys in the twenties and every meaningful 1739 01:30:32,960 --> 01:30:36,519 Speaker 1: statistic for quarterback this year. I mean, he is throwing 1740 01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:40,439 Speaker 1: the ball at the fastest um rate in the NFL. 1741 01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:42,360 Speaker 1: So he gets the ball quick throws, right, He's got 1742 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,240 Speaker 1: good receivers, he lets them do do their thing once 1743 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:47,519 Speaker 1: once they catch the ball. They haven't faced anybody, Okay, 1744 01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:51,400 Speaker 1: they faced no good cornerbacks, no good secondaries. Now you've 1745 01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:54,720 Speaker 1: got a Ravens defense has three lockdown corners that are 1746 01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 1: gonna play type man demand. They're gonna blitz Ben. And 1747 01:30:57,360 --> 01:30:59,639 Speaker 1: you know, Ben has been terrible throwing the ball deep 1748 01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:03,080 Speaker 1: this year, twenty four in deep fall accuracy. There's something 1749 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 1: going on there. So he's not gonna be able to 1750 01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 1: do the same things he's been doing, you know, all seasons. 1751 01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 1: So I just think that, you know, the Ravens are 1752 01:31:09,439 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 1: gonna have a really good game plan for them. They're 1753 01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:13,840 Speaker 1: gonna know how to stop them. Um, you know, I 1754 01:31:13,840 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 1: think the whole world is on Pittsburgh. Everyone just thinks 1755 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:18,640 Speaker 1: that this line is just big. And you know, Pittsburgh's 1756 01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:21,840 Speaker 1: face the second easiest schedule in the NFL. They if 1757 01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:25,360 Speaker 1: you look at pataggery and expectation was essentially point differential, 1758 01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:27,800 Speaker 1: and what your records should be based on point differential. 1759 01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:30,439 Speaker 1: You know, they are really a four like a four 1760 01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:32,280 Speaker 1: and a half win team. Okay, and there and they're 1761 01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:35,519 Speaker 1: six and out, so they've over exceeded expectations and they've 1762 01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:37,719 Speaker 1: done it against the second easy schedule in the NFL. 1763 01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:39,320 Speaker 1: I just think that they're not as good as the 1764 01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:41,760 Speaker 1: record indicates. If there are four and two, this line 1765 01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 1: would be probably five or six points. All of that 1766 01:31:44,240 --> 01:31:46,920 Speaker 1: being said, I they these teams play clothes games, so 1767 01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:48,840 Speaker 1: I could look stupid here at the field goal game, 1768 01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:51,440 Speaker 1: but I just think this is a bad spot comparatively 1769 01:31:51,520 --> 01:31:56,880 Speaker 1: for the Steelers game. I think the Packers, um, you 1770 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 1: can get at six six and a half over the Vikings, 1771 01:31:59,320 --> 01:32:01,519 Speaker 1: and this normally is in a spot that I'd like 1772 01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:03,519 Speaker 1: to take because I'm not a huge you know, I 1773 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 1: like the it's either six or six and a half 1774 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:09,960 Speaker 1: that I don't know what it is this morning, but um, 1775 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 1: it's under seven, I know, I guess I'm sure if 1776 01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 1: you're a contest. But here's my case. I mean I 1777 01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:18,040 Speaker 1: normally would have stayed away, but um, here we are 1778 01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:21,200 Speaker 1: with Minnesota. They just traded their best pass rusher and 1779 01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:24,719 Speaker 1: Gothway had he has almost a third of the total 1780 01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:27,840 Speaker 1: pressures for the entire Vikings defense. That's out the door. Okay, 1781 01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 1: their back up a Jalen Holmes, who I know pretty well, 1782 01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:32,680 Speaker 1: he went to Ohio State. He has He has no 1783 01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:35,720 Speaker 1: sacks and just a couple of pressures all season. So 1784 01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:38,599 Speaker 1: you're it's a complete downgrade in terms of the pass rush, 1785 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:41,519 Speaker 1: which was already ranked seventeenth in the NFL. So now 1786 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:43,760 Speaker 1: without in Gothway, you're probably talking like one of the 1787 01:32:43,760 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 1: worst pass rushes in the NFL. Against Aaron Rodgers. You've 1788 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:50,320 Speaker 1: got a ton of injuries and COVID cases for for 1789 01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 1: the Vikings defense. You're losing starting linebacker Todd Davis, he's 1790 01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:57,719 Speaker 1: out with COVID. Um, they've got their secondary is a mess. 1791 01:32:57,840 --> 01:33:00,679 Speaker 1: They've got three other top four corners are all out 1792 01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:03,639 Speaker 1: either by injury or by COVID. So you've got essentially, 1793 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:07,240 Speaker 1: uh four or five starters are key contributors to that defense, 1794 01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:10,439 Speaker 1: which has already struggled this year. Going up against our 1795 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, and we know Rogers struggles 1796 01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:15,000 Speaker 1: when he has to face you know, a good pass 1797 01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,840 Speaker 1: rush like the Niners last year or Tampas this year. 1798 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 1: But against bad pass rushes, we have the clean pocket, 1799 01:33:20,520 --> 01:33:23,760 Speaker 1: you will totally to tear you apart. So um. And 1800 01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:26,160 Speaker 1: it's gonna be windy there, and I don't want Kirk Cousins, 1801 01:33:26,160 --> 01:33:28,680 Speaker 1: who's got a very mediocre arm, in the wind. So 1802 01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:30,679 Speaker 1: all that being said, I think if you get under 1803 01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:33,120 Speaker 1: under a touchdown, the Packers to be the players. I 1804 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:35,400 Speaker 1: just looked in the contest it is seven. Does that 1805 01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:41,000 Speaker 1: change your mind a lot? Like? Yeah, I mean I 1806 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:43,680 Speaker 1: would obviously it does make a difference because it's it's 1807 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,479 Speaker 1: much harder to you don't want to push there. So um, 1808 01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:49,160 Speaker 1: I would say, if you have uh five, you know 1809 01:33:49,200 --> 01:33:51,800 Speaker 1: four others that you like better, I would do that. 1810 01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:54,560 Speaker 1: But you know what about scrambling for a fifth? I 1811 01:33:54,560 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 1: don't think. What about the look ahead spot next week? 1812 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:01,240 Speaker 1: The forty Niners, the team that rushed screen bab twice 1813 01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 1: last year? Uh Packers have to go to the West 1814 01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:06,360 Speaker 1: Coast and they already beat the Vikings. I tried to 1815 01:34:06,400 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 1: look for some divisional rematches later in the season, and 1816 01:34:09,280 --> 01:34:12,479 Speaker 1: it looks like the favorites only hit scent of the 1817 01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:15,120 Speaker 1: time going back to two thousands. Um, but that's not 1818 01:34:15,200 --> 01:34:19,559 Speaker 1: a huge uh number there. But I just can you 1819 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:22,559 Speaker 1: see a Packers let down here? No, I mean I've 1820 01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:24,599 Speaker 1: heard that before, But why how why would you let 1821 01:34:24,600 --> 01:34:28,240 Speaker 1: down for indivision game against your rival's that? Yeah, I 1822 01:34:28,240 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 1: mean you're like, okay, if they're playing the Bengals, Like, okay, 1823 01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 1: I get that, Or if you're playing you know, uh, 1824 01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:35,799 Speaker 1: you know, a non conference you know team, I totally 1825 01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:37,880 Speaker 1: get that. But no, not not You're not letting down 1826 01:34:37,880 --> 01:34:39,800 Speaker 1: when it's in division and you need every win here. 1827 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:42,600 Speaker 1: So I don't. And like I said, the circumstances like 1828 01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:44,360 Speaker 1: if you're if you're in that Viking locker room and 1829 01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:46,680 Speaker 1: you just trade your best defensive player and now you've 1830 01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:49,519 Speaker 1: got all this COVID situation going, like, I mean, your 1831 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:52,680 Speaker 1: motivation just completely dies down. We saw what Riders did 1832 01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:55,240 Speaker 1: against that secondary, which was healthy at the time. In 1833 01:34:55,280 --> 01:34:59,000 Speaker 1: Week one, they scored forty three points, he threw four touchdowns, 1834 01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:01,360 Speaker 1: like you completely best the made is that that secondary 1835 01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:03,280 Speaker 1: was it gonna do against a bunch of backups? Yeah, 1836 01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:05,880 Speaker 1: so my last pick, I was going between one of 1837 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:09,320 Speaker 1: these two. I like the Tennessee Titans in the contest, 1838 01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:11,200 Speaker 1: the only five and a half it's up to seven 1839 01:35:11,240 --> 01:35:13,840 Speaker 1: now and um and it's or the Miami Dolphins. Let 1840 01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:16,000 Speaker 1: me just quickly on the Titans. It's one of those 1841 01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:19,760 Speaker 1: situations where the Bengals are beat up so badly Joe 1842 01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:23,000 Speaker 1: Mixon out, three offensive linemen out, and we already know 1843 01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:26,640 Speaker 1: Burrows under pressure every time he drops back, and uh, defensively, 1844 01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:29,120 Speaker 1: that defensive line just looks is in shambles. Guys get 1845 01:35:29,120 --> 01:35:33,599 Speaker 1: asked to be traded, Guys getting benched. Um, it just 1846 01:35:33,640 --> 01:35:36,160 Speaker 1: feels like, you know, bounce back is cheesy to say, 1847 01:35:36,200 --> 01:35:38,800 Speaker 1: but I mean, Derrick Henry could probably pick his number 1848 01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:41,280 Speaker 1: here two D two hundred yards whatever he wants, and 1849 01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:45,479 Speaker 1: Tannehill should abuse this secondary. My only issue is Tennessee 1850 01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:49,639 Speaker 1: secondary looked awful in the first half against Pittsburgh, and um, 1851 01:35:49,680 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 1: if they show up like that, Burrow is gonna put 1852 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 1: some points up. Uh, So I five and a half 1853 01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,160 Speaker 1: I like him. You know, it's seven now might be 1854 01:35:56,200 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 1: too high. Yeah, I actually just bet Cincinnati's ofen But 1855 01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:03,600 Speaker 1: like I said, so, only because it hits seven, and 1856 01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:05,599 Speaker 1: you know I did something, so I will say I'll 1857 01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:10,160 Speaker 1: plug our site sharp Football Analysis. Um. We you know, 1858 01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:12,479 Speaker 1: I write a whole injury report and I go into 1859 01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:14,840 Speaker 1: major detail because not no one really does this where 1860 01:36:15,160 --> 01:36:19,000 Speaker 1: we look at the injuries to the offensive line, defensive line, secondary. 1861 01:36:19,000 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 1: It's kind of the non sexty position because that's what 1862 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:23,720 Speaker 1: really matters here. And and yet you're right, there's three 1863 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:26,639 Speaker 1: offensive linemen out for the Bengals. Really, the big one 1864 01:36:26,680 --> 01:36:29,519 Speaker 1: is left tackle Jonah Williams played really well. Um, I 1865 01:36:29,600 --> 01:36:32,280 Speaker 1: will say that the you know, the garden center out, 1866 01:36:32,320 --> 01:36:34,479 Speaker 1: Bobby Hard, he's not a good player. Are sorry? The 1867 01:36:34,520 --> 01:36:36,160 Speaker 1: right tackle Bobby Heart is out, He's not a really 1868 01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:39,000 Speaker 1: good player. So I'm not really nervous about that. The 1869 01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:41,400 Speaker 1: center Hopkins is out, Billy Price, who's got a lot 1870 01:36:41,439 --> 01:36:43,320 Speaker 1: of experience. It's not very good. We've got a lot 1871 01:36:43,360 --> 01:36:46,280 Speaker 1: of experiences there. Um. To start, here's the issue. The 1872 01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:49,360 Speaker 1: Tennessee pass rush is terrible. I mean to Davion Daman 1873 01:36:49,360 --> 01:36:52,120 Speaker 1: Clowney is questionable with the concussion, Like, that's not a 1874 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:54,760 Speaker 1: that's not really a defense that that I'm worried about. 1875 01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:57,360 Speaker 1: If they're playing Pittsburgh or Baltimore, I can, I can 1876 01:36:57,400 --> 01:36:59,479 Speaker 1: see it. But with Tennessee it's not as big of 1877 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:02,320 Speaker 1: an issue. And you said it like the Tennessee secondary 1878 01:37:02,360 --> 01:37:04,640 Speaker 1: is awful, and they've got a guy. They've got a 1879 01:37:04,640 --> 01:37:07,360 Speaker 1: slot guy named Chris Jackson who has ranked hundred twenty 1880 01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:10,120 Speaker 1: seven out of a hundred twenty eight corners by PFF. 1881 01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,920 Speaker 1: He's playing the slot against Tyler Boy. They need to 1882 01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:16,760 Speaker 1: get a Dory Jackson badly. Yeah, and he's and they're 1883 01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 1: gonna eat his lunch. And so I think when you're 1884 01:37:19,080 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 1: getting seven, um in a case with Joe Burrow, who 1885 01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 1: can throw quick and he's gonna spread you out pro quick, um, 1886 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:25,519 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be able to make some plays 1887 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:27,760 Speaker 1: and score enough to keep this game interesting or at 1888 01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:30,400 Speaker 1: least have the back door available. But at five and 1889 01:37:30,400 --> 01:37:31,559 Speaker 1: a half, you got you know, you got a much 1890 01:37:31,560 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 1: better line. Like you said, Derrick Henry is gonna be 1891 01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:35,160 Speaker 1: able to run all over this defense. So um, I 1892 01:37:35,280 --> 01:37:37,680 Speaker 1: just the Titans have played every game close. They have 1893 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,320 Speaker 1: one blowout. It's that Buffalo game right where they had 1894 01:37:40,360 --> 01:37:42,640 Speaker 1: weeks to prepare for the for the Bills. Otherwise, they 1895 01:37:42,720 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 1: beat Jacksonville by three, Denver by two, Minnesota by one, 1896 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 1: Houston by six and they lost the Pittsburgh. So whenever 1897 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:51,759 Speaker 1: you're laying that much with a team that can score, 1898 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:55,640 Speaker 1: it's always dangerous Miami. Any thoughts on two? Uh, I 1899 01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:59,000 Speaker 1: want to take the three point five Rams. Obviously the 1900 01:37:59,120 --> 01:38:02,280 Speaker 1: fourth trip to the east coast of Flores is the 1901 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:06,040 Speaker 1: guy who's shut down McVeigh in the Super Bowl. The 1902 01:38:06,240 --> 01:38:09,519 Speaker 1: uncertainty of two. I kind of like this spot off 1903 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:13,320 Speaker 1: of by for Miami. So I'm actually on the Rams, 1904 01:38:13,400 --> 01:38:15,519 Speaker 1: and I will say I'm playing with fire because you 1905 01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:18,639 Speaker 1: said this is a dangerous travel spot for the Rams, 1906 01:38:18,720 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 1: and I can't quantify the amount of times have gone 1907 01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:23,800 Speaker 1: back and forth like to a point spread, right, I 1908 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:26,759 Speaker 1: can't do it. I mean, to mcveigh's credit, the Rams 1909 01:38:26,760 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 1: are six and one against the spread on one o'clock 1910 01:38:29,560 --> 01:38:32,800 Speaker 1: Eastern time games like and they've destroyed every team they've 1911 01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:35,559 Speaker 1: they've played this year in that situation except for Buffalo. 1912 01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:38,840 Speaker 1: They had that big comeback against the Bills. But um, 1913 01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:41,920 Speaker 1: here's the issue. Okay, Van Fitzpatrick has actually been really 1914 01:38:41,960 --> 01:38:44,479 Speaker 1: good this year. He's seventh in QBR, He's top ten 1915 01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:47,120 Speaker 1: in a lot of advanced metrics. So even if TA 1916 01:38:47,280 --> 01:38:48,960 Speaker 1: is good, which I think he will be, but you know, 1917 01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:51,400 Speaker 1: first game, he's not gonna be as good as Fitzpatrick. 1918 01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:53,960 Speaker 1: His his best game will never be as good as 1919 01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:57,679 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick has produced this year. In your first game, I'm saying, 1920 01:38:57,880 --> 01:38:59,960 Speaker 1: and you're going up against Jalen Rams, He's gonna cover. 1921 01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:01,960 Speaker 1: Parker probably is going to shut them down. So who 1922 01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:04,280 Speaker 1: are your other options? And here's the thing. You say, 1923 01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 1: home team off of bye, home dog off a bye. 1924 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:10,960 Speaker 1: That actually has been a horrible situation since two thousand 1925 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:15,200 Speaker 1: and sixteen. Okay, teams are one in nineteen against the 1926 01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:19,120 Speaker 1: spread when they are a home dog and they're getting uh, 1927 01:39:19,160 --> 01:39:22,000 Speaker 1: and they are have at least eight days rest, which 1928 01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:23,800 Speaker 1: is you know, a bye, or if you play a 1929 01:39:23,800 --> 01:39:26,599 Speaker 1: Thursday to Monday game, Thursday to a Sunday game. So 1930 01:39:26,800 --> 01:39:30,040 Speaker 1: it's not actually a good situation. For whatever reason, it's 1931 01:39:30,040 --> 01:39:33,760 Speaker 1: not a good situation. But still what a nineteen significant 1932 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 1: And the Rams have the number one tv A run 1933 01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:40,320 Speaker 1: offense and Miami's dead last vay run defense, and we 1934 01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:42,200 Speaker 1: know how May likes to set up the pass with 1935 01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:47,040 Speaker 1: the run. I just think that unless barring a complete collapse, 1936 01:39:47,080 --> 01:39:49,519 Speaker 1: because like you said, the Rams are just exhausted, which 1937 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:52,880 Speaker 1: is possible. I think this is a smash spot for 1938 01:39:52,880 --> 01:39:55,880 Speaker 1: the Rams. They just don't see that matchup working out 1939 01:39:55,880 --> 01:39:58,000 Speaker 1: well for for Miami. But again, like I said, the 1940 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:01,439 Speaker 1: Travel could be the great equal life I went against. 1941 01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:03,880 Speaker 1: I went against the Rams against the Eagles and what 1942 01:40:03,960 --> 01:40:06,320 Speaker 1: I thought was a great spot travel and I went 1943 01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:08,800 Speaker 1: against them for the Washington game. Both came up empty. 1944 01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 1: So maybe I replace him the Packers, uh in place 1945 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:14,080 Speaker 1: of Miami. All right, Ta, we gotta run good stuff, 1946 01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:16,240 Speaker 1: you guys. Follow him at cleave t A. He does 1947 01:40:16,280 --> 01:40:19,280 Speaker 1: some war in sharp football analysis, gambling stuff.

We've done a little bit of NBA 1963 01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:21,000 Speaker 1: and now we're gonna um bringing our first NBA draft prospect. 1964 01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:23,080 Speaker 1: That it's been a weird year. As you guys know, 1965 01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 1: the NBA season was pushed back, the draft process was 1966 01:41:27,160 --> 01:41:30,479 Speaker 1: pushed back. Free agency is gonna be pushed back. So 1967 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:32,720 Speaker 1: it's been an awkward year. And I I, you know, 1968 01:41:32,760 --> 01:41:35,200 Speaker 1: I speak to a bunch of agents and I wanted 1969 01:41:35,240 --> 01:41:38,519 Speaker 1: to bring in a player to discuss what the hell 1970 01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:41,680 Speaker 1: of the process has been like. So U joining the 1971 01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:45,240 Speaker 1: show now is Grant Riller, point guard from the College 1972 01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:50,479 Speaker 1: of Charleston. Grant, good morning, How are you doing. I'm excellent. Hey, 1973 01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:52,240 Speaker 1: thanks a lot for taking the time to join us, 1974 01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:55,360 Speaker 1: And I obviously should start with, uh, you know, what 1975 01:41:55,600 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 1: on earth has this process been like for you? We've 1976 01:41:58,960 --> 01:42:01,519 Speaker 1: never seen a year like this, especially when it comes 1977 01:42:01,560 --> 01:42:05,880 Speaker 1: to the NBA. This has been a seven month process, right, Yeah, 1978 01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,599 Speaker 1: it's been crazy. UM. The first the first couple of months, 1979 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:11,800 Speaker 1: UM didn't really get to do too much just because 1980 01:42:11,800 --> 01:42:15,360 Speaker 1: it was UM kind of right smack in the middle 1981 01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:17,800 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, so it was hard to really get 1982 01:42:17,840 --> 01:42:21,679 Speaker 1: some consistent gym and stuff like that. But UM, things 1983 01:42:21,720 --> 01:42:24,280 Speaker 1: kind of got a little bit better. My agent was 1984 01:42:24,320 --> 01:42:26,599 Speaker 1: able to get me out here to l a. UM. 1985 01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:28,679 Speaker 1: I've probably been out here for about three months now, 1986 01:42:29,200 --> 01:42:33,200 Speaker 1: UM and just been working, been having some consistent gym. UM, 1987 01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:36,599 Speaker 1: been able to work with a great team. Uh. So overall, 1988 01:42:36,640 --> 01:42:38,479 Speaker 1: I think it's been long. But at the same time, 1989 01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:40,719 Speaker 1: I think I've gotten a lot better over this time 1990 01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:43,519 Speaker 1: and with something I needed. Yeah, let me ask you 1991 01:42:43,520 --> 01:42:46,800 Speaker 1: when when everything shut down and the season ended prematurely 1992 01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:50,120 Speaker 1: in March, you know, were you able? We we had 1993 01:42:50,160 --> 01:42:53,599 Speaker 1: read about NBA players who weren't able to pick up 1994 01:42:53,600 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 1: a basketball for months, couldn't get in the gym. What initially? 1995 01:42:57,720 --> 01:43:01,120 Speaker 1: What was it like for you? UM? Pretty much the 1996 01:43:01,160 --> 01:43:05,760 Speaker 1: same thing. UM, real hard with basketball. UM. I was 1997 01:43:05,800 --> 01:43:08,360 Speaker 1: able to kind of find a kind of a low 1998 01:43:08,439 --> 01:43:11,240 Speaker 1: key jim UM, but only could really get in there 1999 01:43:11,280 --> 01:43:14,960 Speaker 1: twice a week, So I really didn't do much with basketball. UM. 2000 01:43:14,960 --> 01:43:17,559 Speaker 1: My biggest thing was just trying to make sure I've 2001 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:20,720 Speaker 1: maintained a little bit of shape during that time. So 2002 01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:22,720 Speaker 1: I was able to work with a strength and conditioning 2003 01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:26,639 Speaker 1: god um over zoom, which was good. UM, and then 2004 01:43:26,680 --> 01:43:28,880 Speaker 1: just kind of do some conditioning on my own. I 2005 01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:32,960 Speaker 1: think that that was big, especially early on certainly. UM. So, 2006 01:43:33,120 --> 01:43:37,640 Speaker 1: and so now that you are getting closer to the draft, UM, 2007 01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:39,439 Speaker 1: tell us what it's been like. You can't, you can't. 2008 01:43:39,479 --> 01:43:42,799 Speaker 1: There was no combine. Um. You know, are you able 2009 01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:46,360 Speaker 1: to you know, see any teams or is everything done 2010 01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:49,000 Speaker 1: over zoom? Are there any group workouts you've been a 2011 01:43:49,040 --> 01:43:53,840 Speaker 1: part of. Um in regard to the draft h well 2012 01:43:53,880 --> 01:43:56,559 Speaker 1: as far as interviews and talking to teams go, all 2013 01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:59,680 Speaker 1: that had to be done over zoom. Um, we had 2014 01:43:59,680 --> 01:44:03,920 Speaker 1: a a combine um, but everything was individual. You came 2015 01:44:03,960 --> 01:44:05,960 Speaker 1: in there on your own and kind of tested and 2016 01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,760 Speaker 1: work out by yourself. UM. So it's just kind of 2017 01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 1: been tough. UM. But at the same time, it's it's 2018 01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:12,960 Speaker 1: the world we're live in there right now, so we 2019 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:16,760 Speaker 1: kind of just gotta adapt it forward. Yeah. So, so 2020 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,360 Speaker 1: we're talking with Grant Thriller, College of Charleston point guard 2021 01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:22,760 Speaker 1: who is excited to be drafted at the in the 2022 01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:25,920 Speaker 1: NBA draft. Um grant, I gotta say, I love asking 2023 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:30,080 Speaker 1: players who they kind of modeled their game after. Um. 2024 01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:34,960 Speaker 1: You know, obviously, Jason Tatum famously studied Kobe Bryant. Kobe 2025 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 1: loves to talk about how he watched Michael Jordan's Uh, 2026 01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:40,559 Speaker 1: you know, you kind of grew up in the point 2027 01:44:40,640 --> 01:44:44,000 Speaker 1: guard era. Um is there anybody you kind of patterned 2028 01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:46,320 Speaker 1: your game after? Because I have my thoughts having watched 2029 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:50,280 Speaker 1: you and obviously watching a lot of your YouTube tape. Uh. Yeah, 2030 01:44:50,360 --> 01:44:54,040 Speaker 1: Well I've watched tons of guards over the year. UM, 2031 01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:57,040 Speaker 1: so I try to take bits and pieces from everybody. Um, 2032 01:44:57,040 --> 01:44:58,960 Speaker 1: but the one I probably found myself watching the most 2033 01:44:59,080 --> 01:45:04,600 Speaker 1: is probably Kyrie, especially late high school in early college years. UM. 2034 01:45:04,640 --> 01:45:07,560 Speaker 1: I studied him a time. Um I just by the 2035 01:45:07,600 --> 01:45:10,240 Speaker 1: way he can score on all three levels, Um, how 2036 01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:12,720 Speaker 1: deep his bag is with different kind of moves in 2037 01:45:12,720 --> 01:45:16,560 Speaker 1: different situations. Um, he's good after picking roll. It's a 2038 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:19,280 Speaker 1: really crappy finisher as well. So, UM, I see a 2039 01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:21,720 Speaker 1: little bit of similarities in the game as far as 2040 01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:24,639 Speaker 1: his ability to finish at the rim and play after 2041 01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:27,439 Speaker 1: picking role. But that was definitely somebody I watched a 2042 01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:30,439 Speaker 1: lot of definitely trying to steal a lot from Yeah, 2043 01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:33,320 Speaker 1: that was very clear. If anybody jumps on YouTube and 2044 01:45:33,360 --> 01:45:36,920 Speaker 1: sees it, your handles is insane and just the aggressive 2045 01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:40,200 Speaker 1: nature in which you can score it blew me away. 2046 01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:42,519 Speaker 1: And I gotta say, you know, you played at college 2047 01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:45,920 Speaker 1: and Charleston put up big numbers. UM, do you think 2048 01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:48,360 Speaker 1: it hurts or helps that you're kind of under the 2049 01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:51,400 Speaker 1: radar heading into this process. You know, we got to 2050 01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,679 Speaker 1: see a lot of the point guards from Duke and uh, 2051 01:45:53,720 --> 01:45:56,200 Speaker 1: you know U, C l A and the huge schools, 2052 01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:59,240 Speaker 1: but here you are a guy who's not unknown. But 2053 01:45:59,400 --> 01:46:01,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I know you hung thirty six on my 2054 01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:04,960 Speaker 1: JM you Dukes. UM, but do you think that hurt 2055 01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:11,040 Speaker 1: or helps? UM? I think I think it's helped me, 2056 01:46:12,240 --> 01:46:14,960 Speaker 1: especially even coming back for my fifth year. UM. I 2057 01:46:15,000 --> 01:46:18,479 Speaker 1: think my fifth year was huge, UM, just coming back 2058 01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:21,800 Speaker 1: and really trying to showcase that UM, I could play 2059 01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:25,080 Speaker 1: both guards spots, UM, I could lead a team, UM 2060 01:46:25,240 --> 01:46:27,960 Speaker 1: and just played the right way. UM. I think going 2061 01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:30,400 Speaker 1: to a mad Major, it's tough for them to really 2062 01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:32,640 Speaker 1: see me early on. UM, But I think as I 2063 01:46:32,680 --> 01:46:36,040 Speaker 1: got older and uh, stay consistent with my numbers, they 2064 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:38,400 Speaker 1: eventually found me, UM, and I knew once I kind 2065 01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:41,160 Speaker 1: of got the opportunity that had those looks, it was 2066 01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:42,600 Speaker 1: kind of up to me to make the most of it. 2067 01:46:42,680 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 1: So UM, I think I was able to do that 2068 01:46:45,120 --> 01:46:48,880 Speaker 1: and I got let Yeah the UH, I remember your 2069 01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:51,960 Speaker 1: twenty nine on Providence, which you know, it was a 2070 01:46:52,000 --> 01:46:55,280 Speaker 1: biggie school, high high talent level, and you just tore 2071 01:46:55,320 --> 01:46:57,439 Speaker 1: them up. They couldn't check you nine out of ten 2072 01:46:57,520 --> 01:47:00,360 Speaker 1: from the foul line. You know at the nball, do 2073 01:47:00,400 --> 01:47:03,160 Speaker 1: you see yourself just straight up point guard? More of 2074 01:47:03,160 --> 01:47:05,080 Speaker 1: a combo guard? I know the league is kind of 2075 01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:09,040 Speaker 1: pivoted away from the traditional point guard shooting guards molling forward. 2076 01:47:10,360 --> 01:47:13,960 Speaker 1: What do you see yourself fitting in in the NBA? Uh? 2077 01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:16,120 Speaker 1: This is where I kind of think I'm unique compared 2078 01:47:16,160 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 1: to other guards in the draft. UM, just because I 2079 01:47:18,439 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 1: feel like I'm a true combo UM. I've been a 2080 01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:24,679 Speaker 1: combo guard my my entire career. UM. On my high 2081 01:47:24,680 --> 01:47:27,439 Speaker 1: school team, I played point guard, but on my AU team, 2082 01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:31,360 Speaker 1: I played off the ball. Beginning of my college career, UM, 2083 01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:33,519 Speaker 1: I played with an NBA point guard. UM, So I 2084 01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:35,760 Speaker 1: played off the ball then UM and then kind of 2085 01:47:35,760 --> 01:47:37,519 Speaker 1: transition to more on the ball. As in my ear 2086 01:47:37,880 --> 01:47:40,680 Speaker 1: as my career progressed. So, UM, I think I'm just 2087 01:47:40,720 --> 01:47:43,320 Speaker 1: comfortable in either one, UM and whatever I'm asked to play, 2088 01:47:43,720 --> 01:47:46,840 Speaker 1: I definitely feel comfortable playing even one, and I'll be ready. 2089 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:50,439 Speaker 1: We know the NBA draft process is kind of wild 2090 01:47:50,520 --> 01:47:53,640 Speaker 1: and people get asked strange questions. In the NFL that 2091 01:47:53,680 --> 01:47:56,240 Speaker 1: happens as well. Have you been asked anything very odd, 2092 01:47:57,120 --> 01:47:59,840 Speaker 1: anything out of the left field, anything that made you laugh? Uh? 2093 01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:03,719 Speaker 1: Were in the draft process? Uh? Dude, I talked about 2094 01:48:03,720 --> 01:48:06,479 Speaker 1: one that that was kind of funny. Um, I had 2095 01:48:06,520 --> 01:48:09,400 Speaker 1: to get up mid interview, UM and find item in 2096 01:48:09,479 --> 01:48:14,000 Speaker 1: my house that best represented my family. So I wasn't 2097 01:48:14,040 --> 01:48:16,000 Speaker 1: expecting to have to get up mid interview and try 2098 01:48:16,080 --> 01:48:20,000 Speaker 1: to find something on the fly like that. What did 2099 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,680 Speaker 1: you what did you end up grabbing? I ended up 2100 01:48:22,720 --> 01:48:25,400 Speaker 1: grabbing a family portrait that was right there in the 2101 01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:27,040 Speaker 1: dining room. I didn't want to make too big of 2102 01:48:27,040 --> 01:48:30,120 Speaker 1: a mess until my mom was see it. But I 2103 01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:32,800 Speaker 1: come from a from a big family, so uh, it 2104 01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:37,200 Speaker 1: was easy to find a portrait and definitely represented the household. Uh. 2105 01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:39,960 Speaker 1: Some people don't aren't comfortable with talking grant about teams 2106 01:48:39,960 --> 01:48:41,880 Speaker 1: they've spoken with. Do you want to say that or no, 2107 01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:45,920 Speaker 1: or UM. I pretty much had an interview and spoke 2108 01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:49,280 Speaker 1: with UM every team around the league. UM. I did 2109 01:48:49,320 --> 01:48:51,240 Speaker 1: a lot of it early on when it was only 2110 01:48:51,280 --> 01:48:53,519 Speaker 1: seniors allowed to do interviews, so I did a lot 2111 01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:57,400 Speaker 1: UM in the May period. UM done a few UM 2112 01:48:57,439 --> 01:48:59,720 Speaker 1: in the past couple of months with the combine and 2113 01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 1: stuff up. So I talked to it pretty much every team. UM, 2114 01:49:03,400 --> 01:49:06,360 Speaker 1: and it's all been good. UM gotten positive feedback in 2115 01:49:06,760 --> 01:49:09,960 Speaker 1: some constructive feedback, so overall, I think it's been good 2116 01:49:10,280 --> 01:49:12,320 Speaker 1: and grant, I guess i'd wrap up with you know, 2117 01:49:12,400 --> 01:49:14,519 Speaker 1: heading into the draft, do you guys have plans for 2118 01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:16,479 Speaker 1: draft night or are you one of these low key 2119 01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:19,000 Speaker 1: guys who doesn't want to a big to do? I know, 2120 01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:22,080 Speaker 1: obviously with the you know, COVID and the masks, large 2121 01:49:22,080 --> 01:49:24,200 Speaker 1: gatherings are crazy. But where do you think you'll be 2122 01:49:24,200 --> 01:49:28,080 Speaker 1: spending Draft night? Yeah, I'll probably be at my house 2123 01:49:28,080 --> 01:49:31,040 Speaker 1: in Orlando, my parents house. I'm more of a low 2124 01:49:31,080 --> 01:49:33,760 Speaker 1: key type of guy. UM. Like I said, I come 2125 01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:36,120 Speaker 1: from a big family, so I'll have a ton of 2126 01:49:36,160 --> 01:49:39,680 Speaker 1: my siblings and some other immediate family there. UM. And 2127 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:42,080 Speaker 1: I know it'll be a good time, but UM, I 2128 01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:44,280 Speaker 1: kind of just want the ones that UM has always 2129 01:49:44,320 --> 01:49:46,680 Speaker 1: been in my cornered area. That's all I had here. 2130 01:49:46,960 --> 01:49:49,439 Speaker 1: And then lastly, Grant, did you grow up with like 2131 01:49:49,479 --> 01:49:52,680 Speaker 1: a favorite team, uh, that that you kind of root for? 2132 01:49:52,800 --> 01:49:54,679 Speaker 1: And it would be one of those pinch me moments 2133 01:49:54,720 --> 01:49:59,600 Speaker 1: if you actually got drafted by the UM. Well, I 2134 01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:02,920 Speaker 1: grew up a Magic fan just because I got to 2135 01:50:03,600 --> 01:50:06,559 Speaker 1: go to the game so much. It was a hometown team. 2136 01:50:06,640 --> 01:50:09,519 Speaker 1: But um, I think just being picked by any team 2137 01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:13,400 Speaker 1: is it's kind of a pitch me moment. Especially took 2138 01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 1: the path that I had to take, so um, wherever 2139 01:50:16,080 --> 01:50:18,519 Speaker 1: I end up, it will definitely be a blessing. Man. 2140 01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:20,960 Speaker 1: I'll definitely be able to run with it. Yeah.

Ushier is the offense 2249 01:56:10,280 --> 01:56:13,200 Speaker 1: to the Lana scrimmage snapping from the right, halt deep back, Bailey, 2250 01:56:13,240 --> 01:56:15,600 Speaker 1: play fake back to throw. Here comes pressure your cob 2251 01:56:15,720 --> 01:56:18,720 Speaker 1: throwing to the end zone. Say Flowers comes down with it, 2252 01:56:18,920 --> 01:56:29,400 Speaker 1: touchdown Buston College. How about that the Geico play of 2253 01:56:29,600 --> 01:56:33,680 Speaker 1: the day. Want to know what's really scary seeing just 2254 01:56:33,760 --> 01:56:36,160 Speaker 1: how much you could have been saving on car insurance 2255 01:56:36,160 --> 01:56:39,560 Speaker 1: by switching to Geico. It's almost as scary as watching 2256 01:56:39,560 --> 01:56:43,400 Speaker 1: your dog growl at the wall and realize he sees 2257 01:56:43,520 --> 01:56:49,680 Speaker 1: something you don't get a quote at geico dot com. 2258 01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:55,480 Speaker 1: That's from John meter Parrel at Learfield. I MG, oh, 2259 01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:59,600 Speaker 1: what a huge conversion that is from the Clemson five 2260 01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:02,440 Speaker 1: star recruit to uh. Is that Armani Rodgers. I like 2261 01:57:02,520 --> 01:57:06,600 Speaker 1: that name. Armani. By the way, Hartman and LaVar Arrington. Next, 2262 01:57:06,880 --> 01:57:09,000 Speaker 1: I think they're probably gonna spend two hours breaking down 2263 01:57:09,040 --> 01:57:12,680 Speaker 1: the electoral map. Um, you know, big big event Tuesday night, 2264 01:57:12,840 --> 01:57:14,360 Speaker 1: or they'll do a lot on clubs and losing to 2265 01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:17,760 Speaker 1: Boston College, Um, which is happening now and obviously won't 2266 01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:21,600 Speaker 1: or Penn State bouncing back against Ohio State. Yes, LaVar 2267 01:57:21,720 --> 01:57:26,120 Speaker 1: Arrington's Penn State. Nitney Lyons, Um, what's just spread on that? 2268 01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:30,480 Speaker 1: Like eleven, it's not big enough. It's not big enough. 2269 01:57:30,560 --> 01:57:33,000 Speaker 1: Last week I took the Indiana with the points and 2270 01:57:33,040 --> 01:57:37,280 Speaker 1: that I'm sorry, man, Yeah, it hurt LaVar's feelings for sure, 2271 01:57:37,840 --> 01:57:41,560 Speaker 1: that's what she said. Um alright, so Hartman, Uh, you 2272 01:57:41,600 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 1: know he's fire and alls on all cylinders. It's exciting 2273 01:57:45,200 --> 01:57:48,120 Speaker 1: to get LaVar Arrington back. Katito Mobile now off to 2274 01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:52,360 Speaker 1: enjoy his off season for NBA, but he still hasn't 2275 01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:54,000 Speaker 1: invited me to a pick up NBA game out here 2276 01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:56,240 Speaker 1: in l A. These guys don't think I can go. 2277 01:57:56,360 --> 01:58:00,480 Speaker 1: I'm ready, No, no, probably not. Um, I do miss 2278 01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:03,920 Speaker 1: pick up basketball. This is how desperate I am. Guys. 2279 01:58:04,920 --> 01:58:07,200 Speaker 1: I well, I played last week. It was all right, 2280 01:58:07,520 --> 01:58:10,240 Speaker 1: but it's like it's not great because it's outdoors. I 2281 01:58:10,240 --> 01:58:12,200 Speaker 1: don't like playing outdoors. I don't want to get hurt. 2282 01:58:12,480 --> 01:58:14,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going in the lane. I'm not I'm not 2283 01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:16,440 Speaker 1: trying to get injured. I don't even want to go 2284 01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 1: drive and kick, like, no thanks, I don't need to 2285 01:58:19,040 --> 01:58:20,880 Speaker 1: get breathed on in the lane and get COVID. Now 2286 01:58:20,880 --> 01:58:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm kidding, um, but I'm trying to organize a dad game. 2287 01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm ready. You're like, let's do this. I know Halloween, 2288 01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:29,080 Speaker 1: you've gotta be safe and basketball is on the high 2289 01:58:29,200 --> 01:58:32,720 Speaker 1: risk end. But you do what you can do. You 2290 01:58:32,760 --> 01:58:37,360 Speaker 1: take temperature checks. Uh, you hope that everybody's safe and 2291 01:58:37,600 --> 01:58:40,000 Speaker 1: you gotta try to live your life again. I'm I'm 2292 01:58:40,040 --> 01:58:42,880 Speaker 1: safe and smart about it. But you know, football is happening. 2293 01:58:44,280 --> 01:58:48,360 Speaker 1: Baseball happened, Basketball happened. Like, we can't just shut down everything. 2294 01:58:48,360 --> 01:58:51,600 Speaker 1: It's been eight months. Ideally we would have shut down 2295 01:58:51,640 --> 01:58:53,960 Speaker 1: everything for like three months. It would have gone away. 2296 01:58:54,080 --> 01:58:56,680 Speaker 1: But we know, you know it's not going anywhere anyways. 2297 01:58:57,360 --> 01:59:00,280 Speaker 1: Enough talk about COVID. I'm getting angry again. Uh alright, 2298 01:59:00,320 --> 01:59:05,520 Speaker 1: So Gavin your your favorite NFL bet this weekend. Um, 2299 01:59:05,680 --> 01:59:08,360 Speaker 1: that's tough. I really do like the Seahawks minus three 2300 01:59:08,960 --> 01:59:12,120 Speaker 1: over the Niners, and uh, you know what I'm gonna 2301 01:59:12,160 --> 01:59:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with the Ravens. I like John Harbock 2302 01:59:15,240 --> 01:59:18,400 Speaker 1: coming off of bye I'll lay the four points over 2303 01:59:18,440 --> 01:59:20,960 Speaker 1: the Steelers as well as they've looked. I think that 2304 01:59:21,080 --> 01:59:23,640 Speaker 1: defense will will make it really tough on Big Ben. Yeah, 2305 01:59:23,680 --> 01:59:25,520 Speaker 1: that Ravens defense not bad. Let me just see if 2306 01:59:25,520 --> 01:59:27,760 Speaker 1: the Chicago line has moved. I don't think Gallen Robbins 2307 01:59:27,800 --> 01:59:30,480 Speaker 1: is worth a point? Is he? I don't think so 2308 01:59:30,640 --> 01:59:34,160 Speaker 1: wide receiver when he's hurt four and a half uh 2309 01:59:34,200 --> 01:59:38,000 Speaker 1: five in some spots. Um, is there any game we 2310 01:59:38,040 --> 01:59:43,120 Speaker 1: did not talk? We didn't talk Vegas Cleveland, did we? Um? 2311 01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:47,120 Speaker 1: We didn't talk. It's supposed to be a lot of weather. Yeah, yeah, Um. 2312 01:59:47,240 --> 01:59:49,640 Speaker 1: And how about one minute on Justin Herbert? What you 2313 01:59:49,760 --> 01:59:52,760 Speaker 1: thought how much pressure is on the Dolphins now? Because 2314 01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:55,000 Speaker 1: if two A doesn't have a good day tomorrow. Yeah, 2315 01:59:55,000 --> 01:59:57,160 Speaker 1: with Burrow and what's his name killing, they're always going 2316 01:59:57,200 --> 01:59:59,120 Speaker 1: to be tied together, just like Big Ben, Rivers and 2317 01:59:59,120 --> 02:00:01,360 Speaker 1: Ely are always tied to together. It's really two in 2318 02:00:01,440 --> 02:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Herbert because they had that option. That's a great point. Um, 2319 02:00:05,200 --> 02:00:11,800 Speaker 1: Jets are twenty point dogs in casey like Kansas City, 2320 02:00:11,840 --> 02:00:14,120 Speaker 1: oh for eight on third downs last week against Denver 2321 02:00:14,360 --> 02:00:16,760 Speaker 1: Mahomes at two d yards passing and they lost by 2322 02:00:17,280 --> 02:00:21,160 Speaker 1: Kansas City one so by how do they not easily 2323 02:00:21,160 --> 02:00:25,560 Speaker 1: cover this number? Who think? I don't think it's big enough. Yeah, 2324 02:00:25,600 --> 02:00:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm not touching the Jets. I want them to lose. 2325 02:00:28,520 --> 02:00:30,920 Speaker 1: Go back and play Flacco get his sorry asked back there. 2326 02:00:30,920 --> 02:00:33,760 Speaker 1: He's terrible. Come on, Does Trevor Lawrence come in and 2327 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:36,960 Speaker 1: fix everything? Though? That's that's the delusion among the Jets fans. 2328 02:00:37,120 --> 02:00:40,240 Speaker 1: Um maybe not listen. Peyton Manning I think was one 2329 02:00:40,280 --> 02:00:42,760 Speaker 1: in fifteen or two and fourteen his first year, but 2330 02:00:42,840 --> 02:00:44,520 Speaker 1: you knew it was talent. Did you get the pieces 2331 02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:48,400 Speaker 1: around a boom? I think NFL fans couldn't name three 2332 02:00:48,720 --> 02:00:52,440 Speaker 1: New York Jets three. I think you've got Coinin Williams. 2333 02:00:52,600 --> 02:00:54,920 Speaker 1: I think you've got Sam Donald and I don't know 2334 02:00:54,920 --> 02:00:57,200 Speaker 1: who else. Dude, they're starting a guy at wide receiver 2335 02:00:57,240 --> 02:01:00,600 Speaker 1: I've never heard of this week, and Braxton Arios or 2336 02:01:00,600 --> 02:01:03,720 Speaker 1: Bernard but whatever his name. And then Denzel Mims. Oh, 2337 02:01:03,840 --> 02:01:08,920 Speaker 1: fantasy pickup Denzel Mims targets last week, he could get 2338 02:01:08,960 --> 02:01:11,320 Speaker 1: like twelve targets this week. I do agree that they 2339 02:01:11,400 --> 02:01:14,200 Speaker 1: are going to have to throw because somebody's got well, 2340 02:01:14,320 --> 02:01:16,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, and the Jets. I don't think someone 2341 02:01:16,240 --> 02:01:21,320 Speaker 1: has to catch it catches passes alright, so he break show. 2342 02:01:21,720 --> 02:01:26,600 Speaker 1: Thank you, Isaac, Chris, Sam. You having any big plans 2343 02:01:26,640 --> 02:01:30,600 Speaker 1: for Halloween. No, we're staying inside.

It's like a 2346 02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:40,200 Speaker 1: Netflix for horror movies. Shutters. So we're gonna is it 2347 02:01:40,280 --> 02:01:43,160 Speaker 1: a short time dealer? Oh, we got seven day freet trial, 2348 02:01:43,200 --> 02:01:44,440 Speaker 1: but I think I'm gonna pick it back up.

It's going 2351 02:01:50,080 --> 02:01:53,080 Speaker 1: to be a new world. Maybe, I don't know. I 2352 02:01:53,120 --> 02:01:55,200 Speaker 1: don't know, it'll be the same world. I think it's 2353 02:01:55,240 --> 02:01:56,520 Speaker 1: going to be more of the same. We're all gonna 2354 02:01:56,520 --> 02:01:59,200 Speaker 1: be okay. I know I'm gonna be okay.
