1 00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,628 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in 2 00:00:06,708 --> 00:00:25,908 Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio. All right, let's take a look at 3 00:00:25,908 --> 00:00:29,268 Speaker 1: the current AFC playoff picture. The Chiefs they just have 4 00:00:29,308 --> 00:00:31,708 Speaker 1: a stronghold on everything and what we like to call 5 00:00:31,748 --> 00:00:36,388 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Invitational. The Titans are streaking, The Dolphins 6 00:00:36,388 --> 00:00:38,628 Speaker 1: look great in the Ravens, but of a question mark 7 00:00:38,668 --> 00:00:40,948 Speaker 1: after their loss to Jacksonville and how they can turn 8 00:00:40,988 --> 00:00:44,268 Speaker 1: things around. And some pretty potent teams in the wildcard spot. 9 00:00:44,268 --> 00:00:46,708 Speaker 1: As we shift to the NFC playoff picture, and again 10 00:00:46,948 --> 00:00:50,748 Speaker 1: the NFC East drives that conversation. In the wild card spot, 11 00:00:50,948 --> 00:00:54,628 Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers play host to the Dolphins this weekend. 12 00:00:54,628 --> 00:00:56,348 Speaker 1: As both of those teams sit towards the top of 13 00:00:56,388 --> 00:00:58,908 Speaker 1: their respective conferences, they will face off, as we mentioned 14 00:00:59,028 --> 00:01:01,508 Speaker 1: in San Francisco on Sunday. In our own Cameron Wolf 15 00:01:01,828 --> 00:01:06,388 Speaker 1: has more on that matchup Jamie Ish Reunion Sunday in 16 00:01:06,468 --> 00:01:09,668 Speaker 1: Santa Clara between two Super Bowl contenders, the forty nine 17 00:01:09,708 --> 00:01:11,748 Speaker 1: Ers and the Dolphins. And look, we've got head coach 18 00:01:11,828 --> 00:01:14,908 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel facing this mentor and Kyle Shanahan said, we're 19 00:01:14,948 --> 00:01:17,708 Speaker 1: not going against each other. In Oklahoma, Drow but several 20 00:01:17,748 --> 00:01:20,628 Speaker 1: players who were forty nine ers last year Dolphins currently 21 00:01:20,708 --> 00:01:24,028 Speaker 1: will play, including Raheem Moster and Jeff Wilson. And look, 22 00:01:24,068 --> 00:01:26,788 Speaker 1: social media win a blaze this week when a story 23 00:01:26,828 --> 00:01:29,468 Speaker 1: came out about two of from Tyler Dunn, a reporter, 24 00:01:29,748 --> 00:01:32,708 Speaker 1: and Raheem Moster had quotes in there including, look, we 25 00:01:32,828 --> 00:01:35,748 Speaker 1: have way more talent and our quarterback can actually sling 26 00:01:35,828 --> 00:01:39,348 Speaker 1: it right, And so Deebo Samuel saw that and tweeted out, Raheem, 27 00:01:39,428 --> 00:01:41,948 Speaker 1: let's be real with yourself, keep an eye on that 28 00:01:42,028 --> 00:01:44,868 Speaker 1: backfield where two and Tyreek and Waddle they want to 29 00:01:44,908 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 1: be complete and they have a contest this week against 30 00:01:47,708 --> 00:01:50,308 Speaker 1: the number one ranked forty nine ers run deep. Quite 31 00:01:50,308 --> 00:01:54,668 Speaker 1: a challenge, Shamie, an absolute challenge, Cameron, thank you very much. 32 00:01:54,948 --> 00:01:57,828 Speaker 1: Here's the question, guys, who poses the bigger challenge? Two 33 00:01:57,868 --> 00:02:01,708 Speaker 1: pretty potent units across the NFL face off against each other. 34 00:02:02,108 --> 00:02:04,148 Speaker 1: Is it the forty nine ers defense or is it 35 00:02:04,428 --> 00:02:07,068 Speaker 1: often I always have problems in like deciding who's the 36 00:02:07,068 --> 00:02:11,308 Speaker 1: advantage when it's mentor and protege stuff. And I don't 37 00:02:11,348 --> 00:02:15,148 Speaker 1: know if there's any any bigger time spent together in 38 00:02:15,188 --> 00:02:18,108 Speaker 1: the league right now than Mike McDaniel and Kyle Shannon. 39 00:02:18,228 --> 00:02:20,708 Speaker 1: You know that the last five years Mike McDaniel was 40 00:02:20,748 --> 00:02:24,388 Speaker 1: in San Francisco as Kyle Shanahan's offensive assistant, running a 41 00:02:24,388 --> 00:02:26,468 Speaker 1: lot of the run game and then eventually also working 42 00:02:26,468 --> 00:02:28,868 Speaker 1: with the quarterbacks. You could see McDaniel in that Niners 43 00:02:28,948 --> 00:02:30,388 Speaker 1: uniform when you picture it, and you're like, all right, 44 00:02:30,388 --> 00:02:32,228 Speaker 1: that's what I fictured. But it goes so much further 45 00:02:32,228 --> 00:02:35,388 Speaker 1: than that. Mike McDaniel was working with Kyle Shanahan in Houston, 46 00:02:35,468 --> 00:02:37,828 Speaker 1: he worked with him in Washington, he worked with him 47 00:02:37,868 --> 00:02:42,068 Speaker 1: in Cleveland, he worked with him in Atlanta fourteen years. 48 00:02:42,748 --> 00:02:45,308 Speaker 1: He worked under Kyle Shanahan fourteen years. So who has 49 00:02:45,308 --> 00:02:48,708 Speaker 1: the advantage. Is it the guy who who worked under 50 00:02:48,788 --> 00:02:51,988 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan and knows how his offense operates, or is 51 00:02:52,028 --> 00:02:55,788 Speaker 1: it the other guy who is like, no, I taught 52 00:02:55,828 --> 00:02:57,748 Speaker 1: you everything you know and you're like, my little brother. 53 00:02:57,988 --> 00:02:59,788 Speaker 1: This is an age old question. We've seen it a 54 00:02:59,828 --> 00:03:01,708 Speaker 1: million times in the history, and it goes both ways. 55 00:03:01,708 --> 00:03:03,908 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's some split that you could do of like, yes, 56 00:03:03,948 --> 00:03:06,908 Speaker 1: but men Jani beat Belichick those first few times. Matt 57 00:03:06,908 --> 00:03:09,548 Speaker 1: Patricia beat Belichick when he was in Detroit oddly enough 58 00:03:09,628 --> 00:03:11,468 Speaker 1: like but at the end of the day, I just 59 00:03:11,468 --> 00:03:14,428 Speaker 1: find it the Ex's and Ostassin. McDaniel knows that defense 60 00:03:14,468 --> 00:03:17,988 Speaker 1: inside and out. He knows obviously Demiko Ryan's because they 61 00:03:17,988 --> 00:03:20,348 Speaker 1: were colleagues together. He knows all those defensive players going 62 00:03:20,388 --> 00:03:22,388 Speaker 1: up against him in practice and knowing what they meant 63 00:03:22,388 --> 00:03:24,948 Speaker 1: to his team when he was in San Francisco. I'm 64 00:03:24,988 --> 00:03:28,908 Speaker 1: going to say, just the familiarity with roster, that the 65 00:03:29,028 --> 00:03:32,708 Speaker 1: Miami offense might have an edge over the Sanfasco defense 66 00:03:32,828 --> 00:03:35,908 Speaker 1: because Mike McDaniel knows that San Francisco defense inside and out. 67 00:03:35,948 --> 00:03:37,468 Speaker 1: It's the same day that they ran last year. But 68 00:03:37,668 --> 00:03:39,468 Speaker 1: I think McDaniel has the events too. I'm gonna do, 69 00:03:39,548 --> 00:03:41,588 Speaker 1: are you Yeah, just the way you just laid it out. 70 00:03:41,588 --> 00:03:43,908 Speaker 1: He knows the team so well. Shanahan doesn't know the 71 00:03:43,948 --> 00:03:47,228 Speaker 1: Dolphins that well what it is mean, there's Jedi and Petawan, 72 00:03:47,348 --> 00:03:49,508 Speaker 1: thank you, you know that right, looking for that pop culture. 73 00:03:49,588 --> 00:03:51,708 Speaker 1: I'm sure McDaniel knows what. I'm sure he knows. I'm 74 00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:54,548 Speaker 1: so fascinated by like Da Protege's when it comes to 75 00:03:54,588 --> 00:03:56,668 Speaker 1: coaching because you sit under a guy, yes, you learn 76 00:03:56,748 --> 00:03:58,508 Speaker 1: from him, but I think also when you're sitting under 77 00:03:58,508 --> 00:03:59,908 Speaker 1: a guy, you're like, yo, I would do this song. 78 00:03:59,908 --> 00:04:02,308 Speaker 1: So it's like Flores would you had versus Belichick, Like 79 00:04:02,468 --> 00:04:04,508 Speaker 1: Bull wanted to beat Bill bad when he got to 80 00:04:04,548 --> 00:04:08,428 Speaker 1: another team. So I'm always fascinated by those relationships because 81 00:04:08,428 --> 00:04:11,348 Speaker 1: obviously there's so much futual respect by both those coaches. 82 00:04:11,388 --> 00:04:13,708 Speaker 1: But whenever you're an organization, you're a coach underneath, you're 83 00:04:13,748 --> 00:04:16,068 Speaker 1: always thinking about which you who do different. Feels like 84 00:04:16,108 --> 00:04:18,388 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel has the ultimate weapon though, and he kind 85 00:04:18,388 --> 00:04:20,468 Speaker 1: of wins out in the quarterback battle. If you had to, 86 00:04:20,548 --> 00:04:22,588 Speaker 1: I would rather take two than Jimmy g. I know 87 00:04:22,628 --> 00:04:24,828 Speaker 1: this was the matchup I wanted to watch quarterback wise, 88 00:04:24,868 --> 00:04:26,468 Speaker 1: but I'd rather have two a tug of Volo as 89 00:04:26,468 --> 00:04:28,868 Speaker 1: my quarterback in any game. So far this season, he's 90 00:04:28,908 --> 00:04:32,068 Speaker 1: been playing out of his mind. And this we have 91 00:04:32,148 --> 00:04:34,868 Speaker 1: talked about this ad nauseum. The Dolphins are great. Is 92 00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:39,308 Speaker 1: there not a more influential player on his team than 93 00:04:39,388 --> 00:04:42,028 Speaker 1: two A tun of Volo is influence on the Miami 94 00:04:42,068 --> 00:04:45,508 Speaker 1: Dolphins and their offense, because that is pretty darn convincing. 95 00:04:46,068 --> 00:04:48,788 Speaker 1: Almost three hundred yards of a clip in his passing yards. 96 00:04:49,308 --> 00:04:52,068 Speaker 1: He had the atrocious concussion that we had to watch 97 00:04:52,148 --> 00:04:54,268 Speaker 1: earlier this season where he misses the three games the 98 00:04:54,308 --> 00:04:57,188 Speaker 1: Dolphins just were out of sorts in that stretch. He 99 00:04:57,228 --> 00:05:00,188 Speaker 1: comes back and he has taken over the driver's seat 100 00:05:00,268 --> 00:05:02,308 Speaker 1: to the best of his ability, and that fourteen and 101 00:05:02,308 --> 00:05:05,028 Speaker 1: two in his last sixteen that is just incredible. But 102 00:05:05,068 --> 00:05:07,548 Speaker 1: to me, to a Tongue Boloa is the thing, the 103 00:05:07,588 --> 00:05:10,308 Speaker 1: one to watch making a case for MVP in my opinion, 104 00:05:10,748 --> 00:05:13,628 Speaker 1: second in completion percentage, he leads the league and a 105 00:05:13,668 --> 00:05:16,788 Speaker 1: lot of categories. Guys. The last Miami Dolphin player to 106 00:05:16,828 --> 00:05:19,788 Speaker 1: win an MVP, of course, was Dan Marino's campaign in 107 00:05:19,828 --> 00:05:21,668 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four. I had to read more about it 108 00:05:21,708 --> 00:05:23,228 Speaker 1: because of course I did not get to witness that 109 00:05:23,268 --> 00:05:25,948 Speaker 1: one firsthand. But it is a really interesting case. He 110 00:05:25,988 --> 00:05:29,588 Speaker 1: finished fourteen and two last that year. Tua could easily 111 00:05:29,628 --> 00:05:32,828 Speaker 1: amass that record for just himself this season. But it's 112 00:05:32,868 --> 00:05:35,148 Speaker 1: pretty incredible the case that two A Tongue of La 113 00:05:35,228 --> 00:05:37,428 Speaker 1: is making. And again this feels like an ultimate statement game. 114 00:05:37,468 --> 00:05:39,508 Speaker 1: But showcase I hang my hat on that is that 115 00:05:39,588 --> 00:05:41,708 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a more influential player in the 116 00:05:41,788 --> 00:05:44,028 Speaker 1: league on their team than TWA is from Miami, Dolph 117 00:05:44,068 --> 00:05:46,548 Speaker 1: Kyle Niners a favorite big in this game. We're all 118 00:05:46,588 --> 00:05:51,868 Speaker 1: taking Dolphins here. I like the Niners. Yeah, we're specifically talking, 119 00:05:55,068 --> 00:05:57,148 Speaker 1: and I'm in Miami. I'm just going to continue. And 120 00:05:58,028 --> 00:06:00,948 Speaker 1: you just went to Angelo and the guys. He's throwing 121 00:06:00,988 --> 00:06:03,388 Speaker 1: the ball to Tyring Hill and jam and Waddle on 122 00:06:03,628 --> 00:06:06,828 Speaker 1: historic pace with what they're able to do. And as 123 00:06:06,868 --> 00:06:08,468 Speaker 1: I look at this, I don't know who's gonna have 124 00:06:08,508 --> 00:06:10,308 Speaker 1: the advantage. We can sit here and say, all right, 125 00:06:10,348 --> 00:06:13,668 Speaker 1: it's the defense because they have Nick Bolson, Tallenol who 126 00:06:13,668 --> 00:06:16,188 Speaker 1: fungors vs. Who got But I know when I watched 127 00:06:16,308 --> 00:06:18,908 Speaker 1: the speed of Tyree Hill and Jail and Waddle, it 128 00:06:19,028 --> 00:06:21,188 Speaker 1: is incredible. And the amount of players are able to make. 129 00:06:21,348 --> 00:06:23,828 Speaker 1: Tyree Hiller is four yards away from the total amount 130 00:06:23,828 --> 00:06:26,188 Speaker 1: of yards he had last year for the whole season 131 00:06:26,508 --> 00:06:30,388 Speaker 1: in Kansas City, Waddles closing there on a thousand yards already. 132 00:06:30,668 --> 00:06:33,788 Speaker 1: And I look at the San Francisco forty nine Ers defense, 133 00:06:33,828 --> 00:06:35,748 Speaker 1: and the last time they played in offense this good 134 00:06:35,788 --> 00:06:37,988 Speaker 1: was they played the number one offense in the NFL. 135 00:06:38,268 --> 00:06:40,748 Speaker 1: And Patrick Mahomes in the Kansas City Chiefs and their 136 00:06:40,748 --> 00:06:44,028 Speaker 1: two receivers Juju Smith Schuster seven catches for one hundred 137 00:06:44,028 --> 00:06:47,348 Speaker 1: and twenty four yards. Mvs. Valdes Scantley three catches for 138 00:06:47,428 --> 00:06:49,468 Speaker 1: one hundred and eleven yards. So I want to see 139 00:06:49,468 --> 00:06:52,188 Speaker 1: how this defense responds. You're now going against the number 140 00:06:52,228 --> 00:06:55,108 Speaker 1: two offense in the NFL. How are you going to 141 00:06:55,148 --> 00:06:57,628 Speaker 1: stop them and slow them down? With those two weapons 142 00:06:57,668 --> 00:06:59,828 Speaker 1: they have on the outside? Knock the crap out of them. 143 00:07:00,708 --> 00:07:03,108 Speaker 1: I love not a bad idea. I love them. I do, 144 00:07:03,188 --> 00:07:05,108 Speaker 1: and you guys are making me. We're they lose by thirty. 145 00:07:05,108 --> 00:07:07,228 Speaker 1: I just want to zag so badly because I like that. 146 00:07:07,308 --> 00:07:09,308 Speaker 1: We've talked about this a lot. And Jason, you're missed 147 00:07:09,308 --> 00:07:12,508 Speaker 1: a defense four straight games of not allowing a single 148 00:07:12,548 --> 00:07:14,708 Speaker 1: point in the second half. It's awesome, and that just 149 00:07:14,748 --> 00:07:18,588 Speaker 1: speaks to adjustments and durability and conditioning. But I looked 150 00:07:18,588 --> 00:07:20,748 Speaker 1: into it. I went superhistorical on this, and like, is 151 00:07:20,788 --> 00:07:22,948 Speaker 1: that the most ever? Like you want to see the 152 00:07:23,028 --> 00:07:25,708 Speaker 1: kind of class there in right now? Here's the most 153 00:07:25,788 --> 00:07:29,348 Speaker 1: ever consecutive second half shutouts, Hitch. This is the team, 154 00:07:29,388 --> 00:07:32,588 Speaker 1: Oh my god, the Akron Pros. That's Frick Pollard in 155 00:07:32,628 --> 00:07:36,668 Speaker 1: the bottom right. They did thirteen straight frims thirteen straight 156 00:07:36,708 --> 00:07:40,068 Speaker 1: second halfs Okay, nineteen twenty, Peter, I'm glad you asked. 157 00:07:40,188 --> 00:07:42,428 Speaker 1: From nineteen twenty to nineteen twenty one. Maybe they were 158 00:07:42,428 --> 00:07:44,788 Speaker 1: playing against the Portsmouth Spartans. But this is the kind 159 00:07:44,788 --> 00:07:46,868 Speaker 1: of class we're in. All right, we're starting it's towards that. 160 00:07:47,348 --> 00:07:49,428 Speaker 1: But if I wore to tell you what's the last 161 00:07:49,508 --> 00:07:53,028 Speaker 1: team the most recent team to go four consecutive second 162 00:07:53,068 --> 00:07:57,788 Speaker 1: half shutouts? Is it the Boston Braves? Is the Chicago Cardinals? No, 163 00:07:57,908 --> 00:08:01,308 Speaker 1: it's crazy. It's the twenty twenty one New England Patriots. 164 00:08:01,508 --> 00:08:04,988 Speaker 1: It's last Coco Patriots team. They did it last year. 165 00:08:05,268 --> 00:08:08,628 Speaker 1: Here they are. So this actually is sort of nullifying 166 00:08:08,708 --> 00:08:11,308 Speaker 1: what the Niners are doing in a sense because you're like, wow, 167 00:08:11,628 --> 00:08:14,948 Speaker 1: what an incredible accomplishment. No, the Pats did it last year, 168 00:08:14,988 --> 00:08:16,868 Speaker 1: the team that lost by thirty in the playoffs, they 169 00:08:16,908 --> 00:08:19,748 Speaker 1: did it. The Broncos did it in OH nine, The 170 00:08:19,788 --> 00:08:23,388 Speaker 1: Steelers did it. So it does happen. Is this Niners 171 00:08:23,508 --> 00:08:25,668 Speaker 1: D the same D as that Patriots one? I don't know. 172 00:08:25,748 --> 00:08:28,308 Speaker 1: They're playing really well right now. I feel like one 173 00:08:28,308 --> 00:08:30,788 Speaker 1: of these teams is about to get a massive awakening, 174 00:08:31,228 --> 00:08:33,708 Speaker 1: Like when their number one and whatever stat we pull up, 175 00:08:33,748 --> 00:08:35,388 Speaker 1: and then after this game they're gonna be like eleven. 176 00:08:35,628 --> 00:08:38,068 Speaker 1: You know they're gonna go from three to twenty. I 177 00:08:38,188 --> 00:08:40,268 Speaker 1: liked what the Niners have going. There's this great clip 178 00:08:40,348 --> 00:08:42,588 Speaker 1: miked up Cliff of use Check on the sideline talking 179 00:08:42,628 --> 00:08:45,148 Speaker 1: to Garoppolo and he's like, I'm feeling a Bosa sack 180 00:08:45,268 --> 00:08:47,628 Speaker 1: right now, man, I'm feeling as bosed to get to saxe. 181 00:08:47,868 --> 00:08:50,588 Speaker 1: Just nuts like they're calling it. They're really feeling themselves 182 00:08:50,628 --> 00:08:52,268 Speaker 1: and they don't get scored on the second half. Shout 183 00:08:52,268 --> 00:08:54,468 Speaker 1: out today. You're doing all that without Eric Armstead, who 184 00:08:54,548 --> 00:08:56,988 Speaker 1: might be a Pro Bowl, All Pro type player, and 185 00:08:57,028 --> 00:08:59,588 Speaker 1: he's gonna be returning soon. Also, I think the Niners defense, 186 00:08:59,588 --> 00:09:02,108 Speaker 1: if you haven't seen him yet, like they're fun to 187 00:09:02,148 --> 00:09:05,788 Speaker 1: really fly around Fonga nco. Ryans is on a siline 188 00:09:05,828 --> 00:09:09,748 Speaker 1: going nut. Who's your all time favorite paddle on? My 189 00:09:09,868 --> 00:09:12,548 Speaker 1: all time favorite padawan is a laser dog. Laser Dog 190 00:09:12,628 --> 00:09:15,348 Speaker 1: is a great paddle on. Incredible to com Medaporian count 191 00:09:15,548 --> 00:09:18,548 Speaker 1: hire him? All right, Well, Sullivan, welcome back to Good 192 00:09:18,548 --> 00:09:21,228 Speaker 1: Morning Football. List. Is Stark will be joining us in 193 00:09:21,468 --> 00:09:24,428 Speaker 1: mere moments, But first, some news and headlines from around 194 00:09:24,468 --> 00:09:28,348 Speaker 1: the League. You'll forgive Josh Jacobs as he's slightly tired 195 00:09:28,628 --> 00:09:32,068 Speaker 1: from his Sunday that he had in Seattle. After all, 196 00:09:32,108 --> 00:09:35,068 Speaker 1: he ran for three hundred and three scrimmage yards in 197 00:09:35,148 --> 00:09:38,508 Speaker 1: that win over Seattle after nearly missing the game with 198 00:09:38,548 --> 00:09:43,388 Speaker 1: a calf injury. Well, NFL Network insider Tom Pelli Sarah 199 00:09:43,388 --> 00:09:47,148 Speaker 1: reporting Jacobs is not expected to practice much, if at all, 200 00:09:47,228 --> 00:09:51,148 Speaker 1: this week because of that calf strain. Jacobs injured the calf, 201 00:09:51,348 --> 00:09:54,148 Speaker 1: practiced this past Friday, and then tweaked it in the 202 00:09:54,188 --> 00:09:58,708 Speaker 1: game Sunday. Jacobs leaves the NFL and scrimmage yards this season, 203 00:10:00,348 --> 00:10:04,228 Speaker 1: the Commanders have won three straight behind quarterback Taylor Heineck, 204 00:10:04,708 --> 00:10:07,868 Speaker 1: who is five and one as a starter this season. Now, 205 00:10:07,868 --> 00:10:10,428 Speaker 1: he may not put up the flashiest numbers like some 206 00:10:10,588 --> 00:10:14,268 Speaker 1: other qbs, but Giants safety and friend of the Show 207 00:10:14,348 --> 00:10:18,868 Speaker 1: Julian Love knows Heinicky is the straw that stirs this 208 00:10:18,948 --> 00:10:23,348 Speaker 1: Commander's drink. You know, there's a lot of types of 209 00:10:23,428 --> 00:10:25,228 Speaker 1: quarterbacks up there, a lot of guys, you know, have 210 00:10:25,308 --> 00:10:27,028 Speaker 1: all the staffs and all that stuff, but all guys 211 00:10:27,028 --> 00:10:29,108 Speaker 1: are just produced. You can just feel the energy. I 212 00:10:29,148 --> 00:10:31,028 Speaker 1: think you know it when you watch the game and 213 00:10:31,068 --> 00:10:33,668 Speaker 1: so watching these games that they've been playing, well, he's 214 00:10:33,708 --> 00:10:36,348 Speaker 1: in there. There's a different spark and so regardless of 215 00:10:36,388 --> 00:10:38,868 Speaker 1: you know, the numbers or whatever he does, he's a winner. 216 00:10:39,028 --> 00:10:40,908 Speaker 1: Kid has some swack to him, and so we gotta 217 00:10:41,268 --> 00:10:43,108 Speaker 1: have some energy and swagger back and you know, and 218 00:10:43,188 --> 00:10:46,548 Speaker 1: make him feel it all the game. I love, of course, 219 00:10:46,748 --> 00:10:48,948 Speaker 1: is hoping to keep Heinicky from getting a new pair 220 00:10:48,988 --> 00:10:53,268 Speaker 1: of Jordan's this week. That is his tradition after a 221 00:10:53,308 --> 00:10:56,628 Speaker 1: big win. But the way that he talks about Heinick 222 00:10:56,908 --> 00:10:58,868 Speaker 1: is the same way I think people talk about Mike 223 00:10:58,908 --> 00:11:01,868 Speaker 1: White two. It's like those guys backup quarterbacks with a 224 00:11:01,868 --> 00:11:05,348 Speaker 1: lot of swag, and you see it permeates in the 225 00:11:05,388 --> 00:11:07,908 Speaker 1: locker rooms that they're in. Yeah, at first the whole 226 00:11:07,988 --> 00:11:10,228 Speaker 1: Jordan thing with Taylor Heineke, it was cute. And now 227 00:11:10,228 --> 00:11:12,148 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit worried about a shoe closet is 228 00:11:12,588 --> 00:11:14,988 Speaker 1: overfloweth which is a great problem to have if you're 229 00:11:14,988 --> 00:11:17,428 Speaker 1: the commanders. And Taylor Heinekey, thanks, We'll talk to you 230 00:11:17,468 --> 00:11:20,188 Speaker 1: and a little bit. Our next guest is a friend 231 00:11:20,228 --> 00:11:22,908 Speaker 1: of the show, host of the Emmy Award winning NFL 232 00:11:23,028 --> 00:11:25,788 Speaker 1: three sixty program, and a member of the Sunday Night 233 00:11:25,788 --> 00:11:31,468 Speaker 1: Football broadcast team.

I think 240 00:11:48,668 --> 00:11:52,108 Speaker 1: I had never done a Thanksgiving game, and just to 241 00:11:52,148 --> 00:11:54,348 Speaker 1: be there on Thanksgiving and the fact that everything was 242 00:11:54,388 --> 00:11:58,148 Speaker 1: dedicated to John Madden this year, who I love and 243 00:11:58,268 --> 00:12:00,948 Speaker 1: is a great friend, that was really fun. And to 244 00:12:00,988 --> 00:12:03,108 Speaker 1: do the whole postgame interview with the Turkey Legs and 245 00:12:03,148 --> 00:12:06,108 Speaker 1: the Turduccan and it really just felt like the perfect 246 00:12:06,108 --> 00:12:09,388 Speaker 1: combination of football and family and all of that. So 247 00:12:09,548 --> 00:12:11,228 Speaker 1: it was really fun to be part of that tradition. 248 00:12:11,308 --> 00:12:12,708 Speaker 1: You know, this time of year, Melissa, we could all 249 00:12:12,788 --> 00:12:15,948 Speaker 1: use little inspiration. NFL three sixty as this beautiful reputation 250 00:12:15,988 --> 00:12:19,308 Speaker 1: for telling inspirational stories about inspirational figures. There's also this 251 00:12:19,348 --> 00:12:21,788 Speaker 1: feeling of the last episode was always so inspirational. How 252 00:12:21,828 --> 00:12:23,668 Speaker 1: are we going to outdo that, and sure enough, the 253 00:12:23,668 --> 00:12:25,708 Speaker 1: show return to Night with an all new episode. What 254 00:12:25,828 --> 00:12:27,908 Speaker 1: do You Have in Store? So you may remember a 255 00:12:27,948 --> 00:12:31,148 Speaker 1: story from last year. It was a national story about 256 00:12:31,148 --> 00:12:34,708 Speaker 1: a high school football team, California's School for the Death, 257 00:12:34,828 --> 00:12:37,788 Speaker 1: and this team from southern California went on just a 258 00:12:37,908 --> 00:12:40,628 Speaker 1: magical run in the eight man playoffs all the way 259 00:12:40,668 --> 00:12:42,908 Speaker 1: to the state championship game. They came up short in 260 00:12:42,948 --> 00:12:45,708 Speaker 1: that game, finished the season twelve and one. But keep 261 00:12:45,748 --> 00:12:49,028 Speaker 1: in mind, this is a team with all everyone on 262 00:12:49,068 --> 00:12:51,828 Speaker 1: the team is death, including their head coach, and they 263 00:12:51,868 --> 00:12:55,828 Speaker 1: compete in a league against all hearing teams. And our 264 00:12:55,908 --> 00:12:58,788 Speaker 1: colleague and Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner is the 265 00:12:58,828 --> 00:13:01,628 Speaker 1: correspondent for this story. And you may know that one 266 00:13:01,668 --> 00:13:04,868 Speaker 1: of his sons has a disability, and Kirk, he always 267 00:13:04,948 --> 00:13:08,908 Speaker 1: talks about ability versus disability, and that is really the 268 00:13:09,068 --> 00:13:12,068 Speaker 1: message in this story tonight. And this piece is called 269 00:13:12,228 --> 00:13:15,868 Speaker 1: Unfinished Business, which became the team's mantra after coming up 270 00:13:15,868 --> 00:13:18,908 Speaker 1: short in that game last year, just a devastating loss. 271 00:13:19,028 --> 00:13:21,948 Speaker 1: We follow them through this season and I'm not going 272 00:13:22,028 --> 00:13:23,748 Speaker 1: to give it away, but you're gonna have to see 273 00:13:23,788 --> 00:13:26,988 Speaker 1: tonight they finished business. But It's just an incredible story, 274 00:13:27,428 --> 00:13:29,708 Speaker 1: an incredible ending, and so I can't wait for you 275 00:13:29,748 --> 00:13:31,988 Speaker 1: to see that. One tonight we will be watching. We're 276 00:13:32,028 --> 00:13:34,348 Speaker 1: not giving the ending away, but tell us a little 277 00:13:34,388 --> 00:13:36,948 Speaker 1: more about the protagonist of the story. You mentioned their 278 00:13:36,948 --> 00:13:39,588 Speaker 1: head coach, Keith Adams. This episode really is a deep 279 00:13:39,628 --> 00:13:42,588 Speaker 1: dive into his backstory. You mentioned it he is deaf, 280 00:13:42,668 --> 00:13:45,028 Speaker 1: what makes him such a compelling person and what did 281 00:13:45,028 --> 00:13:47,468 Speaker 1: you get to know from the story that. Obviously Kurt 282 00:13:47,508 --> 00:13:50,028 Speaker 1: has been the correspondent on. So he just was this 283 00:13:50,148 --> 00:13:53,508 Speaker 1: incredible athlete that had a Division one skill set, but 284 00:13:53,628 --> 00:13:57,468 Speaker 1: he was the only deaf member of an all hearing family. 285 00:13:57,508 --> 00:13:59,988 Speaker 1: And so he talks a lot about the isolation that 286 00:14:00,028 --> 00:14:02,508 Speaker 1: he felt just in everyday life and in sports and 287 00:14:02,548 --> 00:14:04,668 Speaker 1: in this family life, even though he had this just 288 00:14:04,748 --> 00:14:08,748 Speaker 1: incredibly loving family and he played big time football, but 289 00:14:08,828 --> 00:14:11,668 Speaker 1: he chose to leave that to go to a smaller 290 00:14:11,708 --> 00:14:14,588 Speaker 1: community and a smaller team where he felt like he 291 00:14:14,668 --> 00:14:17,148 Speaker 1: was part of things. So he does not want that 292 00:14:17,268 --> 00:14:19,588 Speaker 1: for these kids. He has two sons on this team, 293 00:14:19,708 --> 00:14:22,788 Speaker 1: one of them is the quarterback, and he's just built 294 00:14:22,828 --> 00:14:25,828 Speaker 1: this incredible, beautiful program where they can play big time 295 00:14:25,868 --> 00:14:28,868 Speaker 1: football but also feel like they are part of this community. 296 00:14:28,908 --> 00:14:31,068 Speaker 1: And you mentioned Kurt. I mean, Kurt is so passionate 297 00:14:31,108 --> 00:14:33,388 Speaker 1: about this story. He tells this story in such an 298 00:14:33,388 --> 00:14:35,548 Speaker 1: incredible way, So I can't wait for you to see 299 00:14:35,548 --> 00:14:39,188 Speaker 1: it tonight. Such an amazing story of just perseverance and triumph. 300 00:14:39,748 --> 00:14:42,388 Speaker 1: Amazing to watch. And the other story in this episode 301 00:14:42,508 --> 00:14:46,108 Speaker 1: is a different example of courage and strength from the 302 00:14:46,148 --> 00:14:49,068 Speaker 1: next generation. Can you tell us more about to energize 303 00:14:49,148 --> 00:14:52,628 Speaker 1: Sam Prince? So yes, you may remember from last year's draft, 304 00:14:52,628 --> 00:14:55,388 Speaker 1: How could you forget? He was unforgettable a young man. 305 00:14:55,668 --> 00:14:59,348 Speaker 1: He was a transplant survivor up on stage at the 306 00:14:59,428 --> 00:15:02,388 Speaker 1: draft and he is nineteen now, but when he was 307 00:15:02,428 --> 00:15:05,748 Speaker 1: eight years old, he needed a life eaving heart transplant, 308 00:15:05,908 --> 00:15:08,908 Speaker 1: and the New York Giants asked him to announce their 309 00:15:08,948 --> 00:15:11,428 Speaker 1: first round pick of Cavon Thibadeaux. And he pumped his 310 00:15:11,508 --> 00:15:13,988 Speaker 1: fist and he yelled and he screamed, and he just 311 00:15:14,028 --> 00:15:17,308 Speaker 1: had this incredible enthusiasm, And so we asked ourselves, who 312 00:15:17,388 --> 00:15:19,828 Speaker 1: is this kid? We found out what an inspiration he 313 00:15:19,948 --> 00:15:22,748 Speaker 1: is and makes me smile just every time I see him. 314 00:15:22,748 --> 00:15:24,908 Speaker 1: He has such an infectious spirit and he has lifted 315 00:15:24,948 --> 00:15:28,268 Speaker 1: up everyone around him. Including many in the Giants organization 316 00:15:28,268 --> 00:15:30,588 Speaker 1: who he has become friends with. And he's just become 317 00:15:30,668 --> 00:15:34,988 Speaker 1: this incredible advocate for I and tissue and organ donation. 318 00:15:35,268 --> 00:15:37,388 Speaker 1: His goal is to get people to sign up at 319 00:15:37,428 --> 00:15:40,828 Speaker 1: record numbers. He's just changing the world. He's using this 320 00:15:40,868 --> 00:15:43,708 Speaker 1: platform for so much good. And I love this kid. 321 00:15:43,828 --> 00:15:46,908 Speaker 1: I love this story and you're gonna love him too, Melissa, 322 00:15:46,988 --> 00:15:49,348 Speaker 1: that's fantastic.

Now please the Netherlands. 336 00:16:38,508 --> 00:16:41,348 Speaker 1: As Peter mentioned on Saturday, if you're not watching any 337 00:16:41,348 --> 00:16:43,588 Speaker 1: of the conference championships or college football, you can tune 338 00:16:43,628 --> 00:16:46,668 Speaker 1: into that one team USA. It was a huge clutch 339 00:16:46,708 --> 00:16:49,228 Speaker 1: win and they needed it most in that moment. But 340 00:16:49,388 --> 00:16:51,588 Speaker 1: let's spin her back to the NFL, as we do 341 00:16:51,748 --> 00:16:54,908 Speaker 1: oh so well on this show. Someone must have to 342 00:16:54,948 --> 00:16:57,308 Speaker 1: come up clutch in week thirteen, Peter, if you had 343 00:16:57,348 --> 00:16:59,508 Speaker 1: to put a label on them, who would it be? Yeah? Who? 344 00:16:59,668 --> 00:17:02,108 Speaker 1: Who would you guys say? Is the biggest disappointment in 345 00:17:02,148 --> 00:17:05,388 Speaker 1: the NFL this season? Ronca Right, the Broncos are a 346 00:17:05,428 --> 00:17:08,428 Speaker 1: huge disappointment. And which individual player has been the biggest 347 00:17:08,468 --> 00:17:11,548 Speaker 1: head scratcher the season? The quarterback Russell Wilson. Right, the Broncos. 348 00:17:11,548 --> 00:17:13,828 Speaker 1: The season's over. The coach might be getting fired. We 349 00:17:13,948 --> 00:17:16,308 Speaker 1: don't know anything about the future of the franchise of 350 00:17:16,348 --> 00:17:18,508 Speaker 1: the new owner, Like what that means. They have nothing 351 00:17:18,508 --> 00:17:21,628 Speaker 1: to play for, nothing except pride. They're going into Baltimore 352 00:17:21,668 --> 00:17:24,388 Speaker 1: this weekend. If the Ravens lose to the Broncos, we 353 00:17:24,508 --> 00:17:28,068 Speaker 1: have problems in Baltimore. Lamar Jackson is the player that 354 00:17:28,108 --> 00:17:30,748 Speaker 1: I need to be the most clutched Cass weekend. This 355 00:17:30,868 --> 00:17:34,068 Speaker 1: was an eye opening defeat to the Jaguars, a team 356 00:17:34,108 --> 00:17:35,588 Speaker 1: that they should have gone in and being they were 357 00:17:35,668 --> 00:17:38,628 Speaker 1: up seven late another fourth craw at quarter collapsed by 358 00:17:38,628 --> 00:17:41,348 Speaker 1: the defense couldn't stop the Jacksonville high powered offense at 359 00:17:41,388 --> 00:17:44,388 Speaker 1: the end, and Lamar after the game sent out a 360 00:17:44,428 --> 00:17:47,708 Speaker 1: tweet that has sent a tidal wave of reactions and 361 00:17:47,748 --> 00:17:50,788 Speaker 1: even had John Harwall talking about it this week and 362 00:17:51,148 --> 00:17:53,908 Speaker 1: saying how at a character it was. The rub on 363 00:17:53,948 --> 00:17:56,228 Speaker 1: the Ravens is that they're a great regular season team. 364 00:17:56,228 --> 00:17:58,068 Speaker 1: You're going to see him in January every year, but 365 00:17:58,108 --> 00:18:01,428 Speaker 1: they're never going to get over the hump. Don't lose 366 00:18:01,468 --> 00:18:05,468 Speaker 1: to the Denver Broncos this weekend. Lamar of yourself a day. Yes, 367 00:18:05,468 --> 00:18:07,028 Speaker 1: you're gonna get paid again into the season. It's not 368 00:18:07,028 --> 00:18:10,348 Speaker 1: even about the contract anymore. It's about legacy. It's about 369 00:18:10,388 --> 00:18:13,348 Speaker 1: answering to those who doubt, and it's about writing any 370 00:18:13,388 --> 00:18:16,828 Speaker 1: wrongs from last week to me, Lamar jackson go out there, 371 00:18:17,628 --> 00:18:20,348 Speaker 1: have an afternoon when thirty five to three against a 372 00:18:20,388 --> 00:18:22,588 Speaker 1: team that you guys are so much better than when 373 00:18:22,908 --> 00:18:26,308 Speaker 1: twenty one to nothing. Go do your thing and shut 374 00:18:26,388 --> 00:18:29,108 Speaker 1: up the haters. Lamar Jackson, go have a clutch day 375 00:18:29,148 --> 00:18:32,268 Speaker 1: and don't make us have this conversation Monday asking not 376 00:18:32,668 --> 00:18:34,868 Speaker 1: what's wrong with the Broncos, but what's wrong with the Raid. 377 00:18:35,148 --> 00:18:37,428 Speaker 1: You get a stinker. I think I think everybody gets 378 00:18:37,428 --> 00:18:39,628 Speaker 1: that was a stinker. You can't have another one in 379 00:18:39,668 --> 00:18:43,908 Speaker 1: the not to Denver at home. I hear you, But 380 00:18:44,028 --> 00:18:46,668 Speaker 1: one of the key things you said there was Lamar, 381 00:18:46,708 --> 00:18:49,468 Speaker 1: You're gonna get paid. Everything's gonna be okay for Lamar. 382 00:18:49,868 --> 00:18:52,628 Speaker 1: On the other side of the guy you mentioned, Russell Wilson. 383 00:18:52,628 --> 00:18:55,668 Speaker 1: You talk about who needs a clutch performance. Ruth needs 384 00:18:55,668 --> 00:18:58,788 Speaker 1: it in a bad way. Everything has gone wrong for 385 00:18:58,788 --> 00:19:01,588 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. They're three and eight. They brought in 386 00:19:01,628 --> 00:19:04,028 Speaker 1: their head coach Nathaniel Hackett to come because of his 387 00:19:04,428 --> 00:19:07,868 Speaker 1: offensive prowess, his ability to call plays he's already handed 388 00:19:07,868 --> 00:19:10,188 Speaker 1: out over to quint Kobea and it was like, okay, 389 00:19:10,268 --> 00:19:12,108 Speaker 1: this is the answer. And then we watched him this 390 00:19:12,108 --> 00:19:15,948 Speaker 1: past Sunday versus Carolina and they couldn't do anything on offense. 391 00:19:16,108 --> 00:19:17,948 Speaker 1: And then you couple that with the fact that fans 392 00:19:17,948 --> 00:19:20,628 Speaker 1: are all tweeting Russ because he has a slow motion 393 00:19:20,748 --> 00:19:23,868 Speaker 1: video walking into the state now and then the defensive 394 00:19:23,868 --> 00:19:27,428 Speaker 1: lineman Mike Purcell is screaming at him on the sideline 395 00:19:27,468 --> 00:19:30,068 Speaker 1: towards the end of the game. This week, Russ needs 396 00:19:30,108 --> 00:19:32,788 Speaker 1: to have a performance in a bad way. Doesn't need 397 00:19:32,828 --> 00:19:34,228 Speaker 1: to be clutched. I don't care if it's in the 398 00:19:34,268 --> 00:19:36,708 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, the first. He just needs to go out 399 00:19:36,708 --> 00:19:39,228 Speaker 1: there and he needs to have a day more than 400 00:19:39,268 --> 00:19:42,788 Speaker 1: probably anybody in the entire NFL. This is a team 401 00:19:42,828 --> 00:19:46,068 Speaker 1: that Peter, you picked Russ to be your MVP, Nate 402 00:19:46,108 --> 00:19:48,188 Speaker 1: picked him to be his MVP. A lot of people 403 00:19:48,268 --> 00:19:51,188 Speaker 1: had such high hopes for this Denver Broncos team, and 404 00:19:51,228 --> 00:19:54,348 Speaker 1: their defense has been awesome, a top ten defense in 405 00:19:54,388 --> 00:19:57,068 Speaker 1: the NFL this year. Russ at his time, we want 406 00:19:57,068 --> 00:19:59,548 Speaker 1: to see that old Russ, the guy scrambling around in 407 00:19:59,588 --> 00:20:03,268 Speaker 1: Seattle making plays, winning a super Bowl. They doesn't matter. 408 00:20:03,268 --> 00:20:05,548 Speaker 1: They've lost seven straight games. On us. If Russ goes 409 00:20:05,548 --> 00:20:09,788 Speaker 1: out there and throws for three touchdowns and has yes, 410 00:20:09,828 --> 00:20:13,588 Speaker 1: and it doesn't but finish the season, so something going 411 00:20:13,628 --> 00:20:15,708 Speaker 1: into next year. We don't have any damn draft picks. 412 00:20:15,868 --> 00:20:17,628 Speaker 1: At least, let us say, Hi, it took us a 413 00:20:17,668 --> 00:20:19,748 Speaker 1: little while to figure it out, but hey, Russ is 414 00:20:19,788 --> 00:20:22,268 Speaker 1: back looking more like Russ like give us something. One 415 00:20:22,268 --> 00:20:23,548 Speaker 1: of those things where like, oh, they won three of 416 00:20:23,628 --> 00:20:25,508 Speaker 1: their last four. You know, no one was watching, but 417 00:20:25,508 --> 00:20:27,068 Speaker 1: they end of this season strong. We'll see they're not 418 00:20:27,068 --> 00:20:29,068 Speaker 1: showing any signs of life. I would go back to 419 00:20:29,108 --> 00:20:32,228 Speaker 1: Bill's Patriots. Alan was Josh Allen was talking earlier in 420 00:20:32,268 --> 00:20:34,828 Speaker 1: the year about who are guys that you play against, 421 00:20:34,908 --> 00:20:37,788 Speaker 1: who your chirp bet during the game, Who chirps it 422 00:20:37,908 --> 00:20:39,708 Speaker 1: you like across the league? Who are the guys you 423 00:20:39,708 --> 00:20:42,108 Speaker 1: have conversations with? Immediately said Matthew Judon. I thought that 424 00:20:42,148 --> 00:20:44,508 Speaker 1: was fascinating. I think Matthew Judon needs to have a 425 00:20:44,548 --> 00:20:48,068 Speaker 1: star game this week against the Buffalo Bills. Chirping talking 426 00:20:48,228 --> 00:20:50,908 Speaker 1: or not. He is the NFL sack leader. You're going 427 00:20:50,908 --> 00:20:53,468 Speaker 1: against a division rival with the moose at quarterback. I 428 00:20:53,508 --> 00:20:55,588 Speaker 1: don't think the Pats can win this game if Judan 429 00:20:55,748 --> 00:20:57,548 Speaker 1: is not a big factor. You got to drag this 430 00:20:57,588 --> 00:20:59,308 Speaker 1: guy down and they got history. Guys. We'll get into 431 00:20:59,348 --> 00:21:01,908 Speaker 1: this tomorrow. It's been some sideline exchanges. I think it's 432 00:21:01,908 --> 00:21:03,948 Speaker 1: all very healthy. It's kind of like a Warren Sap 433 00:21:04,068 --> 00:21:07,028 Speaker 1: Brett far maybe a little Aaron Rodgers Erlacker. I think 434 00:21:07,068 --> 00:21:09,068 Speaker 1: they like each other. But there's a lot of talking. 435 00:21:09,308 --> 00:21:11,388 Speaker 1: Even going back to the Ravens, June on tapping them 436 00:21:11,388 --> 00:21:14,188 Speaker 1: a little late on the Ravens sideline. Alan gets up 437 00:21:14,228 --> 00:21:16,828 Speaker 1: and screaming and laughing. It's like it is a great 438 00:21:17,068 --> 00:21:19,588 Speaker 1: vibe between the two of them, and that's all awesome. 439 00:21:19,868 --> 00:21:22,068 Speaker 1: But you know, last time they played the Pitcher's Josh, 440 00:21:22,108 --> 00:21:24,628 Speaker 1: I want to buy thirty points. Can't happen again. Junan 441 00:21:24,788 --> 00:21:27,148 Speaker 1: was talking. He's like, we have to stop him from running. 442 00:21:27,148 --> 00:21:28,708 Speaker 1: We gotta just let him live as a passer. And 443 00:21:28,748 --> 00:21:30,828 Speaker 1: he's a great passer, but it's part of my job 444 00:21:30,868 --> 00:21:33,588 Speaker 1: to keep him in. Alan's doing that thing where he 445 00:21:33,588 --> 00:21:35,788 Speaker 1: gets out and he's doing this and looking downfield. It 446 00:21:35,828 --> 00:21:37,068 Speaker 1: might be a long day for the Pats. I think 447 00:21:37,108 --> 00:21:39,188 Speaker 1: Matthew Junan, I don't think he's a star in this 448 00:21:39,268 --> 00:21:41,348 Speaker 1: league yet. I think he is a great player with 449 00:21:41,388 --> 00:21:43,428 Speaker 1: the red sleeves and the sacks. I think he needs 450 00:21:43,428 --> 00:21:45,588 Speaker 1: to have a star day against Buffalo if they're gonna win. 451 00:21:45,708 --> 00:21:48,268 Speaker 1: I kind of play like the onset of a pass 452 00:21:48,348 --> 00:21:50,468 Speaker 1: rusher and a quarterback within the division, and it's like 453 00:21:50,508 --> 00:21:52,468 Speaker 1: a battle you really want to watch. I might spend 454 00:21:52,468 --> 00:21:54,628 Speaker 1: one and apply it to the NFC East and say, 455 00:21:55,308 --> 00:21:58,268 Speaker 1: Chase Young return this weekend and get after Daniel Jones, 456 00:21:58,428 --> 00:22:01,788 Speaker 1: because I love this quirky schedule that's happening where the 457 00:22:01,788 --> 00:22:04,268 Speaker 1: Commanders play the Giants twice in three weeks with a 458 00:22:04,428 --> 00:22:07,428 Speaker 1: buy sandwiched in the middle of the Commanders. The Giants 459 00:22:07,468 --> 00:22:09,948 Speaker 1: have a pretty good clip coming up here. You know 460 00:22:09,988 --> 00:22:12,948 Speaker 1: what sandwiched in between their two Commanders games, It's the Eagles. 461 00:22:13,028 --> 00:22:15,228 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones to me, has to have the most clutch, 462 00:22:15,348 --> 00:22:18,468 Speaker 1: not Week thirteen, the rest of the season. The Giants 463 00:22:18,468 --> 00:22:21,468 Speaker 1: hang in an absolute balance right now, and Daniel Jones 464 00:22:21,508 --> 00:22:23,948 Speaker 1: did this really strange season. If you just look at 465 00:22:23,948 --> 00:22:26,748 Speaker 1: his passer rating, it jumps up to one fifteen, it 466 00:22:26,788 --> 00:22:28,748 Speaker 1: goes down to sixty five, it jumps up to one 467 00:22:28,828 --> 00:22:32,068 Speaker 1: twenty seven, it goes down to sixty two. It consistency 468 00:22:32,228 --> 00:22:35,148 Speaker 1: down the stretch. From Daniel Jones to me would scream clutch. 469 00:22:35,388 --> 00:22:38,588 Speaker 1: To me, it would scream, I have this team balanced 470 00:22:38,628 --> 00:22:40,948 Speaker 1: and composed, and I will march you down the field 471 00:22:40,988 --> 00:22:43,348 Speaker 1: and I would use my weapons. Accordingly, he had Saquon 472 00:22:43,388 --> 00:22:46,548 Speaker 1: Barkley's back. Recently, when there's some criticism surrounding the production 473 00:22:46,628 --> 00:22:48,268 Speaker 1: for the running back coming out of the backfield for 474 00:22:48,308 --> 00:22:50,748 Speaker 1: the Giants. But Daniel Jones, if you can get this 475 00:22:50,828 --> 00:22:53,508 Speaker 1: team through this stretch that you have in December, you 476 00:22:53,508 --> 00:22:55,748 Speaker 1: would wear that clutch hat quite proudly for the New 477 00:22:55,828 --> 00:22:58,948 Speaker 1: York Giants. Do you see Daniel Jones doing this and 478 00:22:58,988 --> 00:23:01,308 Speaker 1: then being the quarterback moving forward? He's a free agent? 479 00:23:01,508 --> 00:23:05,148 Speaker 1: Huge financial implication. I don't think any. The only answer 480 00:23:05,148 --> 00:23:06,948 Speaker 1: to that is I don't know. I don't think the Giants. No, 481 00:23:07,468 --> 00:23:09,628 Speaker 1: I don't think they do either, you know, and I 482 00:23:09,628 --> 00:23:11,748 Speaker 1: think this is your life. We just showed that remaining schedule, 483 00:23:11,868 --> 00:23:13,588 Speaker 1: like are you going to be a Giant or are 484 00:23:13,628 --> 00:23:14,708 Speaker 1: you going to be you know, on the cults? And 485 00:23:14,788 --> 00:23:16,788 Speaker 1: I think Jamie, I think your point is it's got 486 00:23:16,788 --> 00:23:19,148 Speaker 1: to be clutched for the team obviously, like we need 487 00:23:19,148 --> 00:23:20,748 Speaker 1: you in a big spot. This is a fork in 488 00:23:20,788 --> 00:23:24,148 Speaker 1: the road moment for his career, financially, his legacy, everything, 489 00:23:24,188 --> 00:23:26,588 Speaker 1: Like he can make one hundred million dollars if he 490 00:23:26,628 --> 00:23:28,428 Speaker 1: plays great. The next Peter to your point when we 491 00:23:28,428 --> 00:23:30,468 Speaker 1: tell Jimmy g earlier in the show, is just like 492 00:23:30,508 --> 00:23:32,788 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks are are all going to be free agency? 493 00:23:32,868 --> 00:23:36,308 Speaker 1: If not Daniel Jones, then who, right? Who are you 494 00:23:36,308 --> 00:23:38,508 Speaker 1: going to get Gino? Are you going to get Jimmy 495 00:23:38,548 --> 00:23:41,228 Speaker 1: g It's gonna be a fun one all season free 496 00:23:41,228 --> 00:23:42,988 Speaker 1: agency when it comes to quarterbacks. And what was the 497 00:23:43,028 --> 00:23:45,148 Speaker 1: same thing that we were saying and trying to define 498 00:23:45,268 --> 00:23:47,548 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones buy back on September first, which is like, 499 00:23:47,588 --> 00:23:49,708 Speaker 1: what does a successful season look like? And did we 500 00:23:49,788 --> 00:23:53,228 Speaker 1: not all say if not a playoff apparents wins in January? 501 00:23:53,228 --> 00:23:55,988 Speaker 1: And like, honestly, yeah, I thought, I think we all 502 00:23:56,068 --> 00:23:57,828 Speaker 1: kind of said, like, it's not going to happen, but 503 00:23:57,908 --> 00:24:00,868 Speaker 1: that's what it would be. There is an opportunity here. 504 00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:04,348 Speaker 1: We're right there, and it's very interesting down the side. 505 00:24:04,548 --> 00:24:06,268 Speaker 1: See how the conversation is any different for sae Quon 506 00:24:06,348 --> 00:24:09,228 Speaker 1: either just to submit his name into every sentence we 507 00:24:09,348 --> 00:24:11,428 Speaker 1: just said, is he on the Giants next year? Do 508 00:24:11,508 --> 00:24:13,828 Speaker 1: you extend him? Can he have a great run to 509 00:24:13,828 --> 00:24:16,028 Speaker 1: finish the season and be like sae Quon stay or 510 00:24:16,068 --> 00:24:17,708 Speaker 1: like it's been a great run. It's just they're in 511 00:24:17,748 --> 00:24:19,548 Speaker 1: the same boat right now. And what do you want 512 00:24:19,548 --> 00:24:22,068 Speaker 1: to do with it? Yes, such a weird scheduling thing. 513 00:24:22,108 --> 00:24:24,108 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna We're all drunk on it. I love it. 514 00:24:24,308 --> 00:24:26,748 Speaker 1: Drunk on it's alive and they watch them play each 515 00:24:26,748 --> 00:24:28,428 Speaker 1: other in the playoffs. I mean, we'll maybe we'll do 516 00:24:28,428 --> 00:24:32,308 Speaker 1: it three times exactly. Ian Rapports joining us now, rap sheets. 517 00:24:32,588 --> 00:24:34,908 Speaker 1: You got a little suthing on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers 518 00:24:34,948 --> 00:24:38,548 Speaker 1: told Pat McAfee that he'll be good to go on Sunday. 519 00:24:38,708 --> 00:24:41,868 Speaker 1: What more here, Yeah, some good news for Aaron Rodgers 520 00:24:41,908 --> 00:24:44,188 Speaker 1: and certainly something that we've been waiting on. Of course, 521 00:24:44,228 --> 00:24:47,228 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers got hit second quarter, third quarter, kind of 522 00:24:47,228 --> 00:24:50,508 Speaker 1: got doubled over really bang from from both sides. Suffriday, 523 00:24:50,628 --> 00:24:53,908 Speaker 1: a rib injury. Did not finish the game. Watch Jordan 524 00:24:53,988 --> 00:24:57,068 Speaker 1: Love go in there and actually looked pretty good. He 525 00:24:57,148 --> 00:25:00,628 Speaker 1: had test Monday and Tuesday and told Pat McAfee show 526 00:25:00,868 --> 00:25:03,108 Speaker 1: that he believes that he is good to go. He 527 00:25:03,108 --> 00:25:05,228 Speaker 1: said he got good news on his tests and he 528 00:25:05,428 --> 00:25:07,748 Speaker 1: is in fact expected to play this week. The record 529 00:25:07,788 --> 00:25:11,268 Speaker 1: has not been good, but obviously they are not shutting 530 00:25:11,348 --> 00:25:13,988 Speaker 1: him down yet. Meanwhile, we got some more good news 531 00:25:13,988 --> 00:25:17,508 Speaker 1: from von Miller. He said on his podcast yesterday that 532 00:25:17,628 --> 00:25:23,268 Speaker 1: this lateral meniscus tear that he suffered is probably von Miller's. 533 00:25:23,268 --> 00:25:27,188 Speaker 1: We're probably going to allow him to play in December eleventh. 534 00:25:27,188 --> 00:25:28,708 Speaker 1: That gets the Jets, So that means he's gonna miss 535 00:25:28,708 --> 00:25:31,628 Speaker 1: Thursday night's game, and that with some rehab, if all 536 00:25:31,668 --> 00:25:33,988 Speaker 1: goes well, put a brace on it, be able to 537 00:25:33,988 --> 00:25:36,668 Speaker 1: play after the Mini boy against the Jets. That would 538 00:25:36,668 --> 00:25:39,188 Speaker 1: mean that von Miller will miss just one game with 539 00:25:39,228 --> 00:25:41,468 Speaker 1: that knee injury, despite the fact that it looked at 540 00:25:41,508 --> 00:25:44,828 Speaker 1: the time like a pretty significant injury. Well significant for 541 00:25:44,988 --> 00:25:47,988 Speaker 1: him in his return and as an emotional defensive touchdown 542 00:25:48,068 --> 00:25:51,708 Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills moving forward in whenever von Miller returns. 543 00:25:51,708 --> 00:25:54,028 Speaker 1: But we're just glad it's the season Ian Rapport, Thank 544 00:25:54,068 --> 00:26:11,628 Speaker 1: you very much. Still some stuff coming up. Good Morning 545 00:26:11,708 --> 00:26:16,148 Speaker 1: Football is presented by old trapper Beef Jerky. What's your beef? 546 00:26:17,428 --> 00:26:19,628 Speaker 1: I am going with a dB. You know, I love 547 00:26:19,668 --> 00:26:22,468 Speaker 1: to talk to a guy that needs more credit. It's 548 00:26:22,628 --> 00:26:26,268 Speaker 1: Arthur Mullett from the Pittsburgh Steelers. This guy's been making 549 00:26:26,308 --> 00:26:28,748 Speaker 1: plays each and every week. He had a great pass 550 00:26:28,788 --> 00:26:31,388 Speaker 1: break up a few weeks ago against Chris lave on 551 00:26:31,428 --> 00:26:34,308 Speaker 1: the sideline and his coach is even taking notice. We 552 00:26:34,388 --> 00:26:37,588 Speaker 1: know Mike Tomlin has some great sound bites. Listen here 553 00:26:37,588 --> 00:26:40,308 Speaker 1: what he had to say about his dB. He brings 554 00:26:40,348 --> 00:26:43,468 Speaker 1: a demeanor for a small guy that's kind of reflective 555 00:26:43,508 --> 00:26:46,188 Speaker 1: of the dominant nickels that play. All the nickels that 556 00:26:46,228 --> 00:26:50,108 Speaker 1: are dominant ones are angry little people. They don't stay blocked, 557 00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:52,788 Speaker 1: they don't get blocked. They blitz extremely hard and well 558 00:26:52,868 --> 00:26:55,908 Speaker 1: they tackle big people. They play with an edge, and 559 00:26:55,948 --> 00:27:01,068 Speaker 1: he fits that mold angry little people. That's a great 560 00:27:01,108 --> 00:27:04,028 Speaker 1: way to describe it. This guy was undrafted, as played 561 00:27:04,028 --> 00:27:07,028 Speaker 1: for the the Coats, the Jets, the Steelers, and just 562 00:27:07,068 --> 00:27:09,708 Speaker 1: has a remarkable story. Grew up in the ninth Ward 563 00:27:09,988 --> 00:27:13,908 Speaker 1: in New Orleans, oldest of five kids, was there twelve 564 00:27:13,988 --> 00:27:17,748 Speaker 1: years old during Hurricane Katrina. Spent some weeks in the Superdome. 565 00:27:18,108 --> 00:27:20,828 Speaker 1: Described it as it was insane to just so many 566 00:27:20,908 --> 00:27:24,468 Speaker 1: cots in one place. Family moves to ann Arbor, Michigan, 567 00:27:24,508 --> 00:27:26,708 Speaker 1: where he kind of starts to fall in love with 568 00:27:26,788 --> 00:27:30,308 Speaker 1: football like the Michigan Wolverines, goes back to New Orleans, 569 00:27:30,348 --> 00:27:33,828 Speaker 1: has to go to a junior college and Mississippi. Eventually 570 00:27:33,868 --> 00:27:36,748 Speaker 1: finds his way to Memphis where he becomes a captain. 571 00:27:37,028 --> 00:27:38,908 Speaker 1: And this guy has been all over the league. But 572 00:27:39,068 --> 00:27:41,268 Speaker 1: you think about his story and how he plays the 573 00:27:41,308 --> 00:27:45,188 Speaker 1: game and how Mike Tomlin just described them angry little people. 574 00:27:45,228 --> 00:27:48,028 Speaker 1: He is making a difference for them on the defensive 575 00:27:48,068 --> 00:27:50,268 Speaker 1: side of the ball. You saw those plays from the 576 00:27:50,308 --> 00:27:53,108 Speaker 1: Colts game this past Monday night, and this guy makes 577 00:27:53,148 --> 00:27:56,228 Speaker 1: a tackle on kickoff special teams and follows up makes 578 00:27:56,228 --> 00:27:58,908 Speaker 1: a tackle in the run game on Jonathan Taylor, one 579 00:27:58,908 --> 00:28:00,988 Speaker 1: of the best running backs in the NFL, and then 580 00:28:01,028 --> 00:28:03,948 Speaker 1: gets a sack on Matt Ryan. None of those plays 581 00:28:03,948 --> 00:28:07,068 Speaker 1: include him covering and making plays in the pass game. 582 00:28:07,348 --> 00:28:10,828 Speaker 1: Those Pittsburgh Steeler slot defenders for years, Mike Hill and 583 00:28:10,948 --> 00:28:14,948 Speaker 1: Dechet Townsend, William Gay, those guys do it all. Blitz 584 00:28:15,228 --> 00:28:17,748 Speaker 1: cover and they're kind of quarterbacks of the defense being 585 00:28:17,788 --> 00:28:20,188 Speaker 1: able to play in the run game and the past game. 586 00:28:20,228 --> 00:28:23,508 Speaker 1: So Arthur Mullett, keep doing your thing, keep persevering, and 587 00:28:23,588 --> 00:28:26,468 Speaker 1: keep making plays every man. Yeah, for the BD of 588 00:28:26,468 --> 00:28:28,428 Speaker 1: our show, you could talk about Arthur Millette and I 589 00:28:28,428 --> 00:28:30,068 Speaker 1: didn't know his story going in. And that is some 590 00:28:30,148 --> 00:28:32,228 Speaker 1: journey ding, some journ great. Where are you going about it? 591 00:28:32,268 --> 00:28:34,428 Speaker 1: Think a wild turn here? Please do? It's a wild 592 00:28:34,508 --> 00:28:36,988 Speaker 1: weekend in the NFL. Um. I gotta say it again. 593 00:28:37,028 --> 00:28:38,188 Speaker 1: My last thing image in my head and it's the 594 00:28:38,268 --> 00:28:40,028 Speaker 1: last time, We'll show it today. At least it was 595 00:28:40,108 --> 00:28:44,188 Speaker 1: Jackson Deville dressed in a thong bikini, lustily thrusting the 596 00:28:44,348 --> 00:28:47,988 Speaker 1: American flag design speedo dripped across his way. That wasn't it, 597 00:28:48,108 --> 00:28:51,748 Speaker 1: of course, because over the course of Monday's show, we 598 00:28:51,868 --> 00:28:54,468 Speaker 1: had several different images of our friend Jackson Deville, and 599 00:28:54,508 --> 00:28:57,908 Speaker 1: the reverse angle was particularly eye opening, almost stunning, if 600 00:28:57,948 --> 00:29:00,588 Speaker 1: you will. I didn't realize it was a string bikini 601 00:29:00,588 --> 00:29:02,988 Speaker 1: on the backside, remember those videotape buns of steel that 602 00:29:03,068 --> 00:29:06,948 Speaker 1: was looking at The Jags won first time in weeks, 603 00:29:07,108 --> 00:29:10,668 Speaker 1: and I'm not convinced it wasn't because of their amazing names. Wow. Okay. 604 00:29:11,108 --> 00:29:13,868 Speaker 1: Last week another one of our favorite mascots, Pay with 605 00:29:13,948 --> 00:29:16,908 Speaker 1: the Colts.

Maybe I'm being 611 00:29:36,548 --> 00:29:39,948 Speaker 1: overly nostalgic from what we had when we were kids. 612 00:29:40,188 --> 00:29:42,628 Speaker 1: But I grew up on sports and the mascots were 613 00:29:42,628 --> 00:29:45,228 Speaker 1: as much a part of talking about as the players 614 00:29:45,308 --> 00:29:48,228 Speaker 1: and the coaches, Like I have as many fond memories 615 00:29:48,228 --> 00:29:51,668 Speaker 1: as a Philly fanatic and Betty the bullet in the 616 00:29:51,668 --> 00:29:54,028 Speaker 1: San Diego Chicken as I do John Kruk or Luke 617 00:29:54,148 --> 00:29:57,468 Speaker 1: Longley or Benito Santiago thrown from his knees. I'd like 618 00:29:57,548 --> 00:30:00,508 Speaker 1: to thank Jackson Deville, and I would like to thank 619 00:30:00,708 --> 00:30:04,228 Speaker 1: Blue for making us laugh again. Like I know what, 620 00:30:04,388 --> 00:30:06,748 Speaker 1: it was a little off color, but like I was 621 00:30:06,788 --> 00:30:10,148 Speaker 1: watching these games, Yeah, it's borderline inappropriate, but we are 622 00:30:10,188 --> 00:30:12,388 Speaker 1: allowed to say it's a little fun like, and that's 623 00:30:12,428 --> 00:30:18,468 Speaker 1: where our show lives a little inappropriate. Thank you Jackson Deville, 624 00:30:18,588 --> 00:30:21,468 Speaker 1: the man or woman who who is that under the costume? 625 00:30:21,508 --> 00:30:23,748 Speaker 1: Thank you Blue, the man or woman who does that. 626 00:30:23,828 --> 00:30:26,028 Speaker 1: I'm hoping there's some more fun from our mascots.

And Peter, 633 00:30:42,908 --> 00:30:45,908 Speaker 1: you're saying that the American flag bikini bottoms, you think 634 00:30:45,908 --> 00:30:47,828 Speaker 1: that had everything to do with the Jacksonville win. It 635 00:30:47,868 --> 00:30:50,108 Speaker 1: was a patriotic victory. I think you're not going far off. 636 00:30:50,148 --> 00:30:52,308 Speaker 1: I think the victory over Iran at something to do 637 00:30:52,388 --> 00:30:55,988 Speaker 1: with that. I think yesterday soccer man. Absolutely absolutely, I 638 00:30:56,028 --> 00:30:58,508 Speaker 1: think this is big.

We all have kids where 640 00:31:00,868 --> 00:31:03,028 Speaker 1: you go to a pro sporting event and you're more 641 00:31:03,108 --> 00:31:06,308 Speaker 1: excited for the mascot than the superstar players. I'm gonna 642 00:31:06,308 --> 00:31:08,348 Speaker 1: admit something right now, Peter, you brought this person up, 643 00:31:08,428 --> 00:31:10,668 Speaker 1: or this being up.
