I've already come to grips that 89 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: the metsage is gonna take this all the way down 90 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: to the last day, just to drag all of the 91 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: really all the really bad. How could they possibly blow 92 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: this wild card lead in the most painful fashion possible. 93 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: And it's gonna take it down to the final day 94 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: of the regular season. And it's gonna take it down 95 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: to Sunday against the Marlins, who were terrible, but get 96 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: somehow they played the Mets every game they have one 97 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: hundred wins.

Yeah. 174 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: So now, Russell Wilson, what did we say when this 175 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: was gonna happen? Wilson is not going to spend the 176 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: rest of the season and potentially his last in the 177 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: NFL sitting on the sidelines holding a clipboard or more 178 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: than likely with the big Parka on in this in 179 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: the winter months where he's just holding him said, he's 180 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: got his helmet on and he's just sitting there with 181 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: the big parka, you know, with his arms around he 182 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: wrapped around each other, just watching the game happen. Not 183 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: gonna happen, right, Not gonna happen. So by the time 184 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: the trade deadline gets here, Russell Wilson's gonna be on 185 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 1: a new team. That's another reason why they made this 186 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: move now, so they can see that as long as 187 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: as as Jackson Dart is good, they will make the 188 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 1: move in trade. Russell Wilson, He's not gonna finish this 189 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: year backing up sitting on the bench. That's not who 190 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: he is, right, That's not dangerous. He's gonna say, get 191 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: me somewhere where I can jump in and maybe help 192 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 1: a team that needs a quarterback, because everybody needs quarterbacks, 193 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: whether it's injury or ineffect us. We's already had four 194 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: or five quarterback change the first three weeks of the 195 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: season because of injury, So that's going to happen. And 196 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: it also makes sense now if you believe that and 197 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: you say, okay, wait a minute, this makes sense as 198 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: to how Jameis Winston is still on that team because 199 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: when you trade Russell Wilson, okay, you're looking for a 200 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: backup of some kind that can come in just in 201 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: case he has to. If Jackson Dart shows, hey, wait 202 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: a minute, I need some more time, you sit him 203 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: down for a bid, put him in bubble wrap. The 204 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: rams at that with Jared Goff beginning of his career. 205 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: So it makes sense this is why Jameis Winston is 206 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: still there because then he would be that break glass 207 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: in case emergency quarterback that takes over. So yeah, so 208 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart he's gonna start, but I'm telling you Wilson's 209 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: gone by the deadline, and you realize this is why 210 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston is still on the team. I'm not gonna lie. 211 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: I really hope that teams come looking for Jamis instead. 212 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 3: But uh, just because I think it's better theater. Yeah, 213 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: we don't want that guy. No, no, no, we want the 214 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 3: other guy in the room. He's funnier. Uh and uh 215 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: you know he'll he'll wing it around just like Russwell. 216 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 3: I mean, whether it's Cincinnati or one of these other teams. Uh, 217 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 3: that's already faced a huge loss. Yeah, I mean there's 218 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: certainly a marketplace, right we see that the running back position, 219 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 3: right we when we're we're talking about guys that are 220 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: that are back off injury and haven't been used yet. 221 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 4: Uh. 222 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: You know the old phrase that I've used from my 223 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 3: mom's forever, the old save it for good. It seems 224 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 3: like we've got a little bit of that, uh going 225 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 3: on with some of the guys being stashed and coming back. 226 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 3: But but in this it was inevitable. Just again, thought 227 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 3: thought it was gonna be New Orleans. But it's not 228 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: like that's really that's the only good game on the schedule. 229 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 3: Otherwise they've got another five or six in a row 230 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 3: thereafter that are just miserable potential points for for Jackson Dart, 231 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: but you got to see what he's got. You got 232 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: to test the metal. Uh. And you certainly needed a 233 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 3: different change in the room to try to get at 234 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 3: Malik Neighbors more consistently involved in more opportunities. Uh. We'll 235 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: see more of Scatabo of course with Tracy's injury. Uh, 236 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 3: and probably more Devin Singletary because he's a good blocker 237 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 3: and receiver uh in the backfield. So we'll we'll see 238 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 3: that a little bit. But for for Shane and Dable. Yeah, yeah, 239 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 3: you had to pull the pin. You got to see 240 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: what you have, try to convince the bosses that you 241 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: get to keep your job. 242 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 4: Uh. 243 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 3: And yeah, eventually Russell Russell Wilson will be somewhere else. 244 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: There's there's no question about it. And you start to 245 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: wonder if that's been the plan the last couple of months. 246 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: Where Okay, we're getting into the summer. We have these 247 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: three quarterbacks, right, We're not sure what we have, right. 248 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,599 Speaker 1: We we signed Russell Wilson, we signed Jamis Winston. We 249 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: have to wait till the draft they get Jackson Dart. Okay, 250 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: we have these three guys, and I'm sure the thought was, Okay, 251 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: what do we do here? Do we let Jamis go? 252 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: Do we trade him? What we know? What do we do? Jackson? 253 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: Dart's coming along well, And I'm wondering if if once 254 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: the summer hit and the Giants realize that, hey, dark, 255 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna be in here sooner rather than later, right, 256 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: we don't have to sit here and wait for him 257 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: to be ready, like he's gonna be ready the first month. 258 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: Right again, we told you, and I wonder if that's 259 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: been the plan. And they've actually talked to Russell Wilson 260 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: about this, saying, hey, if this happens, we're gonna keep 261 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: all three of these guys. We're gonna keep all three 262 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: of you. We will move you at the deadline to 263 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: a team. We will move you at the deadline. And 264 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: that's been the plan that we've had since Dart showed 265 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: that it's gonna be sooner rather than later. And I'm 266 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,599 Speaker 1: sure all three of these guys have been on the 267 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: same pages. Look, you haven't heard anything. Jameis Winston hasn't 268 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: been mad about stuff. Jamis wins Why am I here 269 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: as a third guy? You haven't heard that yet? It 270 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: was one of the three amigos, right, Yeah, nothing from 271 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson about all this time, it's my job, it's X, 272 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: Y and Z. Everybody seems to be on the same page. 273 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: And it makes sense that if once the middle of this, 274 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: once the beginning of the summer hit, and there were 275 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: three quarterbacks, this is why we're keeping all three right, 276 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 1: because that makes too much sense for this to not 277 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: have been the plan going on the better part of 278 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: five or six weeks. Now. 279 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, have two guys in the room that have 280 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 3: just vastly hy They've experienced everything right. Russ had all 281 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 3: the great success, the super Bowl, the near miss, all 282 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 3: of that, some big numbers, and he's obviously learned a lot. 283 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: For Jamis, you've had the struggles, the interceptions that you 284 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 3: name it, and bouncing around to where Jackson Dart can 285 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 3: glean so much information from both of these guys. They've 286 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 3: started and played so many snaps. To have them around 287 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: the room as long as they have can only be 288 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: to his benefit. And now you get the opportunity. I 289 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 3: guess they're helped in some way that you don't have 290 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 3: a fully deployed Chargers defense with Khalil mack out. But 291 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: still it's it'll be a very interesting game to watch 292 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 3: and see how they run that offense. 293 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: This weekend exit out about a Fresca exit swallowing dump 294 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: sad we told top of a month ago. Now we'll 295 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: push it forward. This is what we do here the 296 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.

Wow, 318 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 5: But it's really that's pretty good. It's a wriggly Field game. 319 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 5: And it's not over. Yes, now, Mets were down with 320 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 5: David Peterson on the mound five to one in the second. 321 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 5: They got a five run fifth even at six six. 322 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 5: It's now nine to seven Mets in the top of 323 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 5: the eighth. Not over. We had people off the air 324 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 5: discussing these playoff possible matchups. Nobody wanted to play three 325 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 5: games at Wrigley Field next week. 326 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: Just for the record, I don't ever want to play 327 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: three games at Wrigley Field. I don't I don't care. 328 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 3: I don't care when it is, especially with what they've 329 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 3: done to that neighborhood trust. 330 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: Anymore. Oh, it's just terrible. 331 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 5: The Wildcard series, the best of three they each begin 332 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 5: next Tuesday, but all the games are at the better 333 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 5: seeded team. 334 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: Now you mentioned David Peterson.

But just a day 409 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: after we celebrated this seventeenth anniversary of the famous Mike 410 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 1: Gundy I'm a man, I'm forty rant, Oklahoma State has 411 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: fired Mike Gundhy as head coach, effective immediately. Three and 412 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 1: nine last year in the Big Twelve, a one and 413 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: two start this year. They lost to Tulsa last weekend, 414 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: which was the final straw for Oklahoma State. And it 415 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: was weird because the school let Mike Gundy do his 416 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: weekly press conference a day ago. It was just really 417 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: really awkward, man, and you talked. 418 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 3: About how much time he had left on his contract, 419 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 3: and also yeah, yeah. 420 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean, look, and here's the thing for you, because 421 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: you know what the play of the day is going 422 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: to be. But oh yeah, but the whole thing is like, 423 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: I really need to hear that something crazy happened behind 424 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: closed doors, because this just feels like they did Gundhy 425 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: all wrong. Like this is not a guy who was 426 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: there for four or five years, went to a couple 427 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: of bowl games and struggled. This guy put the program 428 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: back on the map in the in the early two thousands. 429 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: The guy's been there for twenty years, man. He made 430 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: the team very good to sometimes elite. They had they 431 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: this is a team that went to what a Bowlgate 432 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: eighteen years in a row. Yes, a tough last couple 433 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: of years. And I'm not saying it was wrong to say, hey, 434 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: after this year, we need to move on because maybe 435 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, we need we need some new energy. And 436 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: I understand it, but this guy's been there two decades, man, 437 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: and it feels like they they just did him all wrong. 438 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: From the we're letting him go now to letting him 439 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: do his final press conference making him look bad and 440 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: talk about his contract and and and everything that goes 441 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: along with it. I mean, this is I mean, I 442 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: feel like, Oho, what are you doing? Man? Like I 443 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: understand that the need we want to move on, but 444 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: this guy's more than just hey, he's been here for 445 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: five years, you know, and and and well, don't worry someone, 446 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: the new coach will rent his house when he comes in. 447 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: Like this guy is synonymous with the school. Like you say, 448 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State football. Two names come to mind, Barry Sanders 449 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: and Mike Gundy. Right, that's it. Two names, Barry Sanders, 450 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: Myke Gunny. That's Oklahoma State football. Right, that's it. And 451 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: so to see this, I feel like, wow, man, they 452 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: really did the guy wrong. He won ten games, like 453 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: like seven or eight times with with Oklahoma State, and 454 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: this is how he gets done here. 455 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 3: At the end, Well, I think some of it, you know, 456 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 3: going back to the thing with the Oregon about how 457 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 3: much money they spend and all the improvements and everything 458 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 3: they've got rolling that you know, hey, we're gonna get 459 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 3: get our clocks cleaned, probably didn't help because now you're 460 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 3: embarrassing your boosters and people that support the programs, like, 461 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 3: all right, we're giving you a lot of stuff, and 462 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: you're telling us that you know, it's a pittance, which 463 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 3: on a relative basis it may very well be. I mean, 464 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 3: check the books, those that you can find, and then 465 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 3: the second set of books. You know that it's the 466 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 3: anniversary of the release of Shawshank. You got to have 467 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 3: a second set of books around, so you got all 468 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 3: that going on. But it's just the idea that you've 469 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 3: had all his success that it wouldn't be able to 470 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 3: play out for the rest of the year no matter 471 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 3: how bad it got, or were you risking to your 472 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 3: mind losing whatever. Recruits were already on the books as 473 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 3: commit committing. And this is weird, right because the last 474 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 3: couple of weeks we're seeing a lot of movement in 475 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 3: the coach in Karausel already and we're not even out 476 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 3: of September. 477 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you could say this is it. You could say, hey, 478 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: Mike Gun, you're gonna let you announce this is your 479 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: last year. Like you can do that and still move on. 480 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: You can still move on and talk to recruits. This 481 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: is what's that because whether you fire the guy or 482 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: let him stay at the end of the year, the 483 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 1: recruits are going to think about it, Do I want 484 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: to flip? Do I not? If you have a succession 485 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: plan in place, or he's gonna get to finish this season, 486 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: like you know that. That's something where I'm like, I 487 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: think the guy's earned the right for that, right I 488 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: think he has. I think he's earned the right to 489 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: be able to say, hey, this year is not going clearly. 490 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: You know it doesn't. It doesn't push any timeline up, 491 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: Like have an interim coach in there now. Okay, so 492 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: you have an interim coaching now, but are you gonna 493 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 1: make a change at the end of the season. You'd 494 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: be making a change anyway with Mike Gundhy. At least 495 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: now you have more of a better transition. You can 496 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: continue to talk to the recruits more like.

I mean, that's a. 786 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 3: Separate conversation we do really about your buddy. The Browns 787 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,399 Speaker 3: defense is lights out. 788 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 1: Okay. This is two of the three weeks where they 789 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: shut down Jordan Love and the Packers looked like they 790 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: were the best team in the NFL the first couple 791 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: of they were gonna go undefeated, and they shut down 792 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: Joe Burry the first week. Now, second week they lost 793 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 1: to Baltimore. Okay, they didn't play that well, but Baltimore 794 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: the game got away from them. But Cleveland gave the 795 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 1: ball away. 796 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, a couple of times in plus territory, like they 797 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 3: gave it game away. 798 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: They have no offense. They have absolutely not Joe Flacco's 799 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: quarterback rating this season so far as sixty five, okay, 800 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: seventy five, sixty five, fifty five, he's done right. They 801 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: have absolutely no offense. Don't give away a season you 802 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: can compete. It is a bad AFC. It is a 803 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: weak AFC North. You are looking at at a Cincinnati 804 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: Bengals team without Joe Burrow for probably the rest of 805 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: the season. The Ravens defense is absolutely putrid. And the 806 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: Steelers are at the Steelers that you think they are right, 807 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,760 Speaker 1: They're struggling. They're gonna struggle offensively. Be bold, you trade 808 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 1: for a quarterback and all of a sudden you can 809 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 1: win some games and be in the wildcard, maybe even 810 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,720 Speaker 1: be in the division race. Because all of a sudden, 811 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: things have changed, Like the defense has played so well, 812 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: and we knew they were gonna have a good defense. 813 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: I didn't think it would be this good through three games, 814 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: because you're talking about three superstar quarterbacks and two out 815 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 1: of three games and two and a half times they 816 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: came in and said, yeah, we got you, we got you. 817 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: If you had any kind of offense, you would be 818 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,879 Speaker 1: two and one right now, you'd be at the top, 819 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: and you'd be the biggest success story. You just make 820 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: it move. There's gonna be guys out there. There's gonna 821 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: be guys out there could put points on the board, 822 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: give you some offense.
