1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Cowboys have a bye week. Tim Callishaw never 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: does Dallas Morning news columnist and Starve around the horn 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,159 Speaker 1: and he joins us on the program. Wow, we got 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: good things to talk about, don't we. Oh my, this 6 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: is unusual. This is unusual for us. Last time around 7 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: was this high in Dallas? Was Oh? Well, at twenty sixteen, 8 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: the eleven game winning streak, Dak and Zeke as rookies, 9 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: the sky was the limit. They had found their future. 10 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: And here we are five years later waiting for this 11 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: team to capitalize on Dak and Zeke being here. They 12 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: kind of got sideways for a few years and didn't 13 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: really take advantage of it. But the excitement around that 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: team this year, while Dak and Zeke are obviously still here, 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: that digs that you already mentioned, you know, ceedee lamb. 16 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: The younger players are what make people think. Even Randy 17 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: Gregory to an extent, make people think, wow, there are 18 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: some different stars here and maybe this will be different. 19 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: What are your concerns? Well, it starts with the head 20 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: coach is unfair, you know, and I've been maybe overly 21 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: hard shot him here and some of the things people 22 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: got on him for yesterday didn't really bother me. It 23 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: made sense to kick the field goal that he missed 24 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: Zeroline missed. You know, he went for it early fourth 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: and one that their own what thirty five. That's unconventional 26 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: that we've been screaming for coaches to pay attention to 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: these analytics and say, if you've got a good offense 28 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: and they have a great one, you can make a yard, 29 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: you shouldn't hunt the ball away. And they didn't make 30 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: the yard and so it didn't look good and that 31 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: kind of energized the Patriots when they scored three plays 32 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: after that. Josh McDaniels called his best three plays he 33 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: had and they're running tricks and next thing they're in 34 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: the end zone, and you know that kind of kept 35 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: him afloat for the day. But McCarthy is a concern, 36 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: I think. And you know, the defense is still although 37 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: they're making the interceptions in some of the plays and 38 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: yesterday they're not playing against a great offense, they still 39 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: give up stuff. I mean, look at the look at 40 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: the play they gave up to almost lose the game. 41 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: So you got to you gotta still be a little 42 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: leery of that. Yeah, I'm with you with McCarthy. I 43 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: didn't think they should have gone for it on the 44 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: fourth down in their own territory. I would have gone 45 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: for the fourth down when they needed a yard late 46 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: in the game. He calls a time out that helped 47 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Yeah, his misunderstanding of the clock continues to 48 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: baffle all of us. You call a time out if 49 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna go for it. Yeah, he called a time 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: out and kicked a field goal, So then you're giving 51 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: a team time. No, the Patriots didn't happen to do 52 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: anything with it, but the clock management has been an 53 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: ongoing thing. The thing about the fourth and one early 54 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: that you can say, look, you don't need to take 55 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: that risk. You're a much better team than New England. 56 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: Don't give them the ball at your own thirty four. Yep. 57 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: And I just think they're a little cocky and they 58 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: think we're going to drive down here and score touchdown 59 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: and and it bit him. Yeah. In that offensive line 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 1: there were holes that were unbelievable. That's why I thought 61 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: you can get a yard against this New England defense 62 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: that and keep the clock going. It just surprised. Yeah, 63 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: they had run Zeke on third and one, and look, 64 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: it looks like Zeke's gonna get it, and somebody comes 65 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: in and blast him and he's got the ball in 66 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: his back arm. They made a little bit, you know, 67 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: they gained the Patriots by more than two hundred and 68 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: thirty yards. That was a weird game to watch, to say, 69 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: how do they not have this game put away? And 70 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: then obviously they almost lost it the penalties to penalties. Uh, yeah, 71 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: it was a sloppy game. They got a bye week 72 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: coming up. I'm sure the players are thinking about that, 73 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,839 Speaker 1: Let's get an easy win over the Patriots and go 74 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: for a few days off. And so they didn't play 75 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: their best, but they did. They did Ceedee Lamb was 76 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 1: there when they needed him and and so they're five 77 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: and one. You start to look at that division and 78 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: look at it, not long term, but at least in 79 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: the next three years. You know, the Giants are going 80 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: to be in a rebuild. They're going to need a 81 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: new quarterback, maybe a new head coach. On GM, s 82 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: Quon Barkley won't be there. The Eagles are going to 83 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: be in a rebuild. We're not sure about the Washington 84 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: football team on and off the field. I mean this 85 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: is a great position, a great window for the next 86 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: three years. You would think for the Cowboys. I was 87 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: thinking about that this morning. They could be going to 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: get three different quarterbacks next year, as early as next year. 89 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: The Eagles right now, don't they have They have like 90 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: three picks in the top ten. Yeah, and so if 91 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: they if they're not in full belief, that hurts is 92 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: the answers they're going to use one of those on 93 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback. You would think, Danny Dimes, I don't know, 94 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: he looks okay, I don't know if I don't know 95 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: if I'm ready to pull the plug on him. But 96 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: that's a mess of a team in New York and Washington. 97 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: You're right, they don't have their quarterback. And they know that. 98 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: They knew that when they brought in you know, fitz Magic. 99 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: So it's it's they're gonna win the divison. Cowboys gonna 100 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: win the division by five games or at six, And 101 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: because they got four more games against those teams, you know, 102 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: they got a shot at You know, it used to 103 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: be played for the top two seeds. Now now there's 104 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: only one that gets the buy and you're playing with 105 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: Arizona team Dallas plays at home January second, and you 106 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 1: could be with the Rams, you could be with the Bucks, 107 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: a team the Cowboys lost to that could still hurt him, 108 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: but they're in that competition. When did you realize or 109 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: when did the Cowboys realize they had something special in 110 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: Trayvon Dink's I think they knew last year. I don't 111 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: think they envisioned anything like this. I think he was 112 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: just really sound, really solid right away, like I could 113 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: start in this league, I can play. What do you 114 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: need me to do? I'll be your best quarterback quarterback, 115 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: and and man, he just started making plays this year. 116 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: And I thought it was funny that he got beat 117 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: for the touchdown. You know, we've written all these things 118 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: and said these things about Everson Walls and his first 119 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: two years he had eleven interceptions. That's the most in 120 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: the last forty years. And then he had seven in 121 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: a strike season. They were only whenever there were twelve games, 122 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: maybe nine games. Very that was a short strike season 123 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two. And but Everson got beat a lot. 124 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: Everson took a lot of chances. Diggs hasn't been beaten 125 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: that often. But I thought, Okay, this guy really is 126 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 1: Everson Walls. He just ran one back for he just 127 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: gave up. This does remind me of forty years ago. Yeah, 128 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: I remember Everson Walls would gamble and then he would 129 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: make it. Yeah, and they don't throw in your direction, 130 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: your durell reevers. If they think you're gonna gamble and 131 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: they can take advantage of that, they'll continue to throw 132 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: in your direction. There's a reason Walls is the only 133 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: player who's led the interceptions three times because they kept throwing. Oh, 134 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: morale is high, look at you. Yeah, Ras, Ravs Hawks Thursday, Yeah, 135 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: Luca and Trey, here we go. Yeah, MVP favorites. No. 136 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: Oh okay, well that's what people said. That's what I 137 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: was told. That's missus. How about Texas Longhorn? Oh no, 138 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: oh my on the Water Rangers free agent. No, I 139 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: don't think so. By the way, I know you do. 140 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: You're doing a zoom call and those listening on radio 141 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: don't realize that whatever the picture is behind you gives 142 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: you devil's horns and you should probably change that picture. Okay, 143 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: you you look like you have you're the devil, and 144 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: I know, be like the old devil before I came 145 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: out of the gentleman kept going slide a little right there. 146 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: So the big german, my director did this, he sent 147 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: you up. Yes, yeah, you have appropriate. That's the way 148 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: half your audience sees the Cowboys in that light. Fans 149 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: love them, half of them think this is holacious, that 150 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are good again and they're gonna be obnoxious again. 151 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: How's Jerry Jones been? Is Jerry even more confident hockey? 152 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: He's been almost a little low key for him? Well, 153 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: definitely low key for him. Uh yeah, I mean I think, 154 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: but I think that means he thinks that they're pretty 155 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: good and he's not. Really He's kind of just got 156 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: his fingers crossed it. Things have looked like they'd be 157 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: good in the recent past, and injuries or something I've 158 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: derailed this team, the catch in Green Bay, whatever, There's 159 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: something that has gotten in his way, and I think 160 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: he's starting to feel like, hey, maybe that twenty five 161 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: year NFC championship game drought, maybe they could. Maybe they're 162 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: gonna end that this year. Have you been in his 163 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: suite before? I have not. I have used to go 164 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: to his office many times in Valley Rams, but I 165 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: have not been in that suite. I don't believe I 166 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 1: haven't standing invitation to go in there. What if you 167 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: went in to clean his glasses? Yes, if I if 168 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: I would offer to do that. I asked him about 169 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: going for a ride on the boat one time. I 170 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: called it the boat. I think he was offended. I 171 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,599 Speaker 1: called it the boat given that it looks like a 172 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: you know, logan roy and successive, you know, something like that, 173 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: two hundred, two hundred and fifty feet long. I think um. 174 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: And he said something about if I want to work 175 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: on the boat, I might get the up to man 176 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: the deck.

Five hundred does. 181 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: And I think I've been in kind of a malaise 182 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: since then. I haven't really put it together. I lost 183 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: last week the Mina Kimes in a showdown. I lost 184 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: to sarah' spain. I just I'm not I'm not closing, 185 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: I'm not finishing. I'm the Dodgers. All of a sudden, 186 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: I'm doing the wrong things. At the end of the game, 187 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, is anybody gonna catch Woody Page 188 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: on around the horn? Well, he's got over six hundred. 189 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: I would have to stay on for seven more years. 190 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: That's not in my planet. And I'm sure that's yeah. 191 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: What do you sort of, Jerry Rice, you're Larry Fitzgerald. 192 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: I'll take that.

Mina best team 210 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: in the AFC is who right now? The Buffalo bill 211 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: so much something crazy happen tonight. I'm riding with Buffalo. 212 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: It's complicated, it's so much parody are on the NFL 213 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: right now, but they look like the most complete team. Well, 214 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: I was wondering about the Ravens of what they're doing, 215 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: not having any running backs there, what they did against 216 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 1: the Chargers, And I know we always had this referendum 217 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: after every game. It feels like we know teams either 218 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: good or not. But where do the Ravens sort of 219 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,599 Speaker 1: fit in all of this. I've got them second. And 220 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you asked about the Ravens in particular, 221 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: because I just spent the morning rewatching their defense. That 222 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: was by far the best game they put together on 223 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: that side of the ball. And you know they've struggled 224 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: with some injuries. Obviously, losing Marcus Peters early in the 225 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: season was brutal. In fact, they're one of the most 226 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: injured teams in the league in terms of the players 227 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: on IR but you finally saw what a complete effort 228 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: could look like. Really they want in all three phases, 229 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: beginning to Sean Elliott back safety was huge, Dan, that 230 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: might be the worst game I've ever seen. Justin Herbert 231 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: plays a pro and I've watched all of them, and 232 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: a lot of it had to do with the game 233 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: plan put together by Weet Barndale, the Ravens defensive coordinator. 234 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he had no idea where the pressure was 235 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 1: coming from on third down and watching them, like, we 236 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: know what Lamar can do, right, we know he can 237 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: put the team on his back. But watching them yesterday 238 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: against LA I felt like, for the first time, this 239 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: team can actually win a Super Bowl. Really, Yes, Okay, 240 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: I felt it. I feel what do you disagree? There's 241 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 1: so much disbelief in your voices now. Oh, I don't know. 242 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: I think sometimes it's uh, you know, It's like the 243 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: declaration last week was Justin Herbert. I'd take Justin Herbert 244 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: over Patrick Mahomes. I'm like, where did that come from? Like, 245 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, we just we had these statements sometimes and 246 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: I'd just go, Wow, that might come back and haunt you, 247 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think Lamar, what he's doing as far 248 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: as value goes, is right up there with with Kyler Murray. 249 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: He might not have the numbers, you know, the pretty 250 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: numbers there, but you know, I'm with you on that team, 251 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: that coach and what they did defensively was pretty impressive. 252 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: But let me go back to Justin Herbert and Patrick Mahomes. 253 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: Are you on that hill? Are you going to die 254 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: on that hill? Justin Herman? Okay, all right, No, I 255 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: didn't know that that. I mean I did. I believe 256 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: you when you say that the hell people are dying 257 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 1: on because with such prisoners at a moment and coming 258 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: off of it's just been such a wonky season with 259 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and a lot of that doesn't have to 260 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: do with Patrick Mahomes. Some of it does. He made 261 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: a pretty bone headed made the most bone headed mistake. 262 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: He's everybody yesterday, But you got to look at the 263 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: body of work, right I'm part of the reason I'm 264 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: so confident about Lamar and the Ravens is at this point, 265 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: the dude's been in the league for a few years, 266 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: right where we had the MVP season that everyone seems 267 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: to have collectively forgotten where he was excellent throwing the ball, 268 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: whereas again, you doing Herbert versus Mahomes, I mean Mahomes. Yes, 269 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: he's had some ups and downs this year. Yes, the 270 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: defense is terrible. Yes he's made some weird interceptions and 271 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: uncharacteristically I guess, pressing type throws. But you can't compare 272 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: Herbert to him yet after such small sample, fives five 273 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: teams are five and one or better in the NFC. 274 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: So Cards, Cowboys, Packers, Bucks, Rams, they went five and 275 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: ozho in week six. They won their games by an 276 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: average of fourteen points per game. If we were going 277 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: to rank these teams, because we always love rankings, give me, 278 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: give me one through five with those teams. Oh lord, okay, 279 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: so yeah, there's five in the NFC. Oh yeah, because 280 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: the Rams. Okay, So are we ranking now or come January? January? 281 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: Oh god, you got me? Okay, So now everyone's the 282 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: amunde me because I'm not going to have the Cardinals 283 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: number one. They're obviously number one. Now, if you get 284 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: to six and L I don't care how you got it, 285 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: Greg Joseph's missfield goals and chaos and all of that 286 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: weird kick sixes, you're six and ol However, I'm going 287 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: to give you a rankings in January, and you come 288 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: check back with me. Okay, I'm going Bucks number one, 289 00:15:53,240 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: I'm going Cardinals number two. Are more believe that you 290 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: believe that. I just don't love people to yell at me. 291 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: I think. Okay, So here's the thing about the Cardinals. 292 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: Let me let me tell you why I have Cardinals skepticism. 293 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: Even though I think Kyler Murray's playing out of his 294 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: he's in god modem. I was really hoping yesterday we 295 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: would get to see this defense tested against a violent 296 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: running game, because I believe that is the primary weakness 297 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: of this team. Unfortunately, Cleveland rolls in with backup tackles 298 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: and no Nick Chubbs, so that hypods is not tested, 299 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: and really you can kind of throw out the defensive 300 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: poor permits to some degree, what Kyler did an offense 301 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: still stands. I'm very very intrigued by Cardinals Packers in 302 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks because I think that's going to 303 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: be I know, the Cardinals blew the Rams out of 304 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: the water. It was kind of a weird game that 305 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: got away from the Rams early. But Packers, I think, 306 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: you know, have the sort of running games that can 307 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: give as the Cardinals the business. And I still don't 308 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: trust hick Cliff Kingsburg's in terms of game management. I 309 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: mean it's credible, as they played pretty well without him, 310 00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: but I just don't trust him, particularly compared to some 311 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: of the other coaches at the top of the NFC 312 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: non Mike McCarthy division. Are you all in on the Cowboys? No, 313 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: because of the aforementioned Mike McCarthy aspect, I am not. 314 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys have the best offense in the NFL. 315 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: I think they are a bus stout. I think they 316 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: can beat you a million different ways. To see that, 317 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: whether it was the run game in previous two weeks, 318 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: yesterday was the past because New England was so determined 319 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: to stop the run. But I think this is a 320 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: maybe above average defense. Now that said, I don't think 321 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 1: there's we got more parody in the NFL this year 322 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: than ever before, so there's no you know, steamroller of 323 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: a team that makes me question the Cowboys. I just 324 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: don't think they're perfect. I don't think they're balanced to 325 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: the degree that con people think to think they are. 326 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: I know the Rams want a scrimmage yesterday with the Giants, 327 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 1: but I'm not sure, like, what's the identity of this team. 328 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: Explosive offense with a little bit of inconstittency sprinkled in 329 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: for Matt Stafford, which is kind of seen up as 330 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: a reminder is that, oh yeah, he's still Mat Stafford. 331 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: And then defensively two of the best players of their generation, 332 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: and some weaknesses elsewhere throughout actually not too sitting similar 333 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: from the Packers to that cent with Geral Alexander out, 334 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: but you are seeing a few holes in this Rams 335 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: defense ranted not against the Giants that the Cardinals really 336 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: exposed where you can attack their linebackers. And all of 337 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: the DB's not named Jalen Ramsey, who will be the 338 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: All Pro quarterback in the NFC this year, Brady Stafford, Prescott, 339 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: Murray Rogers other I'm going Dak Prescott there. It's really 340 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: really hard since they're all in the same conference as 341 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: you just described. But it's funny because Dak's not my MVP. 342 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: And when I say my MVP, I think with you 343 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: it the way that you do Dan, where I'm looking 344 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: at actual value to the team, which is why I'm 345 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: rolling with Lamar. But I think Dak is not only 346 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,239 Speaker 1: playing at an extraordinarily high level. He's part of an 347 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: offense in terms of the line, the skill players. By 348 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: the way, Michael Gallup's going to come back at some point, 349 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: and then a play caller that's going to ensure he 350 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: has this level of success for the rest of the season. 351 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: Talking to me and it Kimes, the analyst, senior writer, 352 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: podcast host, TV contributor for The Mother's Ship. What was 353 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: your Super Bowl pick? And do you want to do over? 354 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: I think I had the books chief really original, right, um, 355 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: and right now I'll go Bucks Bills, Okay, have you over? 356 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: So that means the Bills will lose tonight? Yeah, Well, 357 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,239 Speaker 1: if the Bills lose tonight, can who's producing this? Can 358 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: you go and delete the sort of the archives? And 359 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean I'd be really shocked. And if they do 360 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: loose tonight, By the way, the AFCUS total chaos, right, 361 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: I mean, we're all kind of coming out of last 362 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: week saying, Okay, this is the Bills. Finally, this looks 363 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: like an actual balance team. We know what they can 364 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: do on offense in terms of their five power, but 365 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: the defense was untested going into last week. They played 366 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: a cupcake schedule. Pass rushers look great. We know how 367 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: good the safeties are in to Dabut's white and suddenly 368 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: I think that those questions have evaporated. If they lose 369 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: to the Titans, then I don't know what to believe anymore. 370 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: My entire belief system will be thrown into questions. You 371 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: tweeted this out last year, Tom Brady thirty fifth and 372 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: passer rating when pressured. This year he's second. How do 373 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: you explain that, can't ask? It's complicated because if it 374 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: was just this year versus last year, I would say 375 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: it's mostly scheme comfort within the offense, right, And I 376 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: think that does explain a lot of it. But as 377 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: you guys remember, I'm sure locally Tom Brady also struggling 378 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: against pressure its final years in New England. Doo. It's 379 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: a lot of that had to do with the skill 380 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: players and their inability to to separate. I think that's 381 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: an important part of explaining why. But the dude is 382 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: playing the best football he's played in years at the moment, 383 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: and it seems like a perfect storm of reasons, ranging 384 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: from scheme, to the personnel around him to the man himself. Yeah, 385 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to understand why he would walk away. 386 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: And the only thing I could think of was that 387 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: he comes to the realization about missing out on things 388 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: at home. That because other than that, it's not like 389 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: he was fast enough to slow down. And if he 390 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 1: still has a good arm, good protection, he likes the coach, 391 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: likes the system, likes the weather, got some skill position players. 392 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: Why would Tom Brady walk away? You know, I always 393 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: thought Brady would walk away because he was tired of 394 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: getting hit. That's just see maybe that's a very normy 395 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: way to look at it, where he kind of put 396 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: yourself into the shoes of a man who's accomplished everything 397 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: and streets that will probably never be matched. Right, But 398 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: I thought, man, you know, I'm younger than Tom Brady, 399 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: but even me, if I stubbed my toe in the 400 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: corner of the bed, the day is over. I'm watching 401 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: him to get hit in the pocket. I'm like, he 402 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: don't want to do this anymore. And then the statistic 403 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: you just read out loud, Well, he's throwing pearls while 404 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: he's getting hittness here, and that is different, man from 405 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:14,439 Speaker 1: the previous two years. And seth Wickersham, who I'm sure 406 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: you thought on your show, he's got this need the 407 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: book on the past right. He was telling me the 408 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: other day that Brady practice is taking shacks, which is true, 409 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 1: sicko behavior, slainth the greatness. But watching him this year, 410 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: he really, even when he's getting hit, there's ertling an 411 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: elegance to it, in ability to rip off these throws. 412 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: That again makes me agree with you. I really don't 413 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: understand why he'll walk away at this point, dun not 414 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: only the level of football he's playing, but the nature 415 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: of its. Good luck to your bills tonight, me and 416 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: it great to talk to you again. Prayers prayers up 417 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: by guys.

Before we 431 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: get to Carson Palmer, wanted to play this for you 432 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: and Carson. Here's Dan Campbell, the Lions head coach, talking 433 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: about Jared Goff after the loss to the Bengals. I 434 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 1: feel like he needs to step up more than he has, 435 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 1: and I think he I think he needs to help us, 436 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 1: you know, just like everybody else. And I think he's 437 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna need to put a little bit of 438 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: weight on his shoulders here and it's time to step 439 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: up and make some throws and do some things. But 440 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: he needs help. He needs help. It's bringing Carson Palmer, 441 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,479 Speaker 1: former NFL quarterback. How would you respond to that if 442 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: you're Jared Goff when your coach says that after a loss? Well, 443 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: when when Jared was a young quarterback and just kind 444 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: of getting into the game and figuring things out like 445 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: I was, you learn at a very young age playing 446 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: this position that when you win, you're the hero, when 447 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: you lose, you're the bum. And there's too much put 448 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: on you when you win, and there's too much put 449 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: on you when you lose. But I think the most 450 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: important thing that he said it was at the very 451 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: end when he said he needs help. Because he needs help. 452 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: I mean, they can't stop anybody on the defense. Offensive 453 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: line has been an issue. They don't really have many 454 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: playmakers behind him in the running back position or outside 455 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: of him at the wide receiver spot. So when you lose, 456 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: things get get heaped on you. But there's no doubt 457 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: Jared Goff needs some help. Have you ever been called 458 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: out by your coach in a press conference? Oh? Yeah, 459 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: it happened all the time. I mean most times when 460 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: you lose, they say the quarterback needs to play better. 461 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: And obviously I think jar Jared be the first to 462 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: tell you he needs to play better. But there's no doubt. 463 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: I mean, with his skill set, he needs help. He 464 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: needs playmakers around him because he don't have very many. 465 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: Explain to me, the Chargers got all this love last 466 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: week and then they go to Baltimore and that was 467 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: not an inspiring effort. Like, as much as we should 468 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: compliment the ravens Lamar Jackson in their defense, but the Chargers, 469 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: it felt like Okay, let's see what you got national stage, 470 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: and they did not produce. Why they're not quite there yet. 471 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: They're not completely ready to be one of the premier 472 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: teams in the AFC. They've got some really nice, nice 473 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: things about them. They got there, a good young quarterback, 474 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: they got a boast of rother down there. On the 475 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: defensive line, Durwin James is an animal on the back 476 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: end a defensive back. You know, at the end of 477 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: the day, are you ready to you know, all the 478 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: hype you've been getting as a Charger, are you ready 479 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: to go into Baltimore and one of the most hostile 480 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: environments and put out and show out and improve that 481 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: you deserve to be talked about as one of the 482 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: better teams in the AFC. They answer that question for us. 483 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: They went to Baltimore and got blown out. They're not 484 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: quite there yet, but I'm not giving up on that team. 485 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: I cannot wait to watch them. How they respond this 486 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: week is really telling of what kind of team that is, 487 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: what kind of leadership they have, and who their head coaches. 488 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: Cardinals go to Cleveland. It banged up Cleveland team, but 489 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: they they dominated them. That doesn't feel like everybody's all 490 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: in on the Cardinals. Yet what do you think is 491 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: the big reason why there's a holdout? Well, it's it's then, 492 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's the opposite of what we just said 493 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: about about the Chargers. Can you go into Baltimore and win? Well, 494 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: can you know, can the Cardinals, a foreign O team 495 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: go out east and go into Ohio and beat the Browns? 496 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: And they beat them decisively? It wasn't close. I mean, 497 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: I know that team was beat up. But the Cardinals 498 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: have heard all that kind of West Coast bias, all 499 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: the real teams out there on the East coast. They 500 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: went into the East Coast, went into Ohio and got 501 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: to win that. You know they should have won. They 502 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: were playing against a team that was beat up. The 503 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: Cardinals were extremely healthy. So I mean, you know, it's 504 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: the same thing we just said about the Chargers. If 505 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: you're for real, Arizona, good Ohio, and leave no doubt 506 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: on the field who the best team is, and they 507 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: did that. They are for real. Everybody needs to respect 508 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: that team. They're five and oh for a reason. You 509 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: know that they haven't started off against some weak teams. 510 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: They beat some good teams, especially this last week going 511 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: into Cleveland, against the team you know is going to 512 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: run the ball, try to run the ball down your throat. 513 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: They went in there, they looked really good and they 514 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: looked like the best team in the league. Right now, 515 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: it feels like there's the NFC is top heavy. You 516 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: got five teams that are at least five and one. 517 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 1: You got the Cardinals being undefeated. Dallas wins put up 518 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: big numbers, but they allowed New England to take them 519 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: into overtime. What do you take away from Dallas's win? 520 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: A win is a win, especially when you go into 521 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: New England. I mean, yeah, we'd like to walk out with, 522 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: you know, a two or three score lead, but a 523 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: win is a win. The best team most of the 524 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: time at the end of the day, especially when you 525 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: go to overtime, finds a way to win. And I 526 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: don't care if it was close. I don't care how 527 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: many points they scored or how many points their defense 528 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: gave up. Ballast is for real. They've got a really 529 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: nice division for them. They're sitting in at a good 530 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 1: spot in a good division. I just think they are 531 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: for real and they're gonna make a run this year. 532 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: Did you ever find yourself in a competition within a 533 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: competition against that quarterback on the other team during a 534 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: game of matching them to do your partner, you know 535 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: the stats you tried not to but especially I don't 536 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: know if you're referring to Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray 537 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: playing against each other former teammates at Oklahoma, but no doubt, 538 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: I mean, every quarterback wants to go in and throw 539 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: for a little bit more yards, have a little bit 540 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: higher completion percentage, and have a better QB rating. So 541 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: you can try to block that out, and you can 542 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: try to say, you know, it's just about our team 543 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: playing well and winning. But I think you know, at 544 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: the at the root of every competitive tussle between two teams, 545 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: I think down there deep, both those quarterbacks want to 546 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: have a better statistical day, without a doubt. But did 547 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: you find you did that when you faced Roethlisberger or 548 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: you've faced you know, whoever, Brady, whoever you were facing 549 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: on a regular base, semiregular basis. Absolutely, I would go 550 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: in the locker room, you know, hopefully after a win, 551 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: and I would get the stat sheet right before I 552 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: went into my press conference post game, and I would 553 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: just double check and see where numbers were so I 554 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: think it's pretty normal. I would I would assume just 555 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: about every quarterback in the league does that. Yeah, but 556 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: can you did you ever have a great game in 557 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: a loss? Like can you can you separate what you 558 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: did as opposed to what your team did? No, I mean, 559 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, quarterbacks so the only position, 560 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: and really head coaches are the only guys that are 561 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: judged on wins and losses, not on how many tackles 562 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: they had or what their defense finished. You know, categorically, 563 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: at the end of the season, it's about wins and losses. 564 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: As a quarterback, you're judged, so you know, at the 565 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: end of the day, what matters is the win. And 566 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: then after you get the win, you can, you know, 567 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: personally look at your own statistics and make sure that 568 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: that you had better numbers than your opponent. But it's 569 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: about the win, no doubt. What the hell happened to 570 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins, But they're who they're who we thought 571 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: there were. I mean, a lot of people got you know, 572 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: jumped on the bandwagon, got excited about that team, got 573 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: excited about Brian Flores, and you know he's the first 574 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, Bill Belichick understudy to go on and have success. 575 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: He hadn't had success yet. I mean that that team 576 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: was really sexy preseason because they had all the draft picks, 577 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: they had all the cap space. They're still not a 578 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: very good football team. You know, they got a gift 579 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: win against New England, and now they've lost five in 580 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: a row, and then you lose to Jacksonville in London 581 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: and they don't have their first round pick. Philadelphia has that. 582 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a tough situation to be and 583 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: then I don't even know if they're all in on 584 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: Tua because they're right, they're not. Yeah, they're simply not. 585 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: I mean they thought that Deshaun Watson trade, I think 586 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: it looks like it, and it seems like everything was 587 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: pointing towards them being able to acquire DeShawn this offseason. 588 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: Obviously that didn't happen because of all the off the 589 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: field stuff going on in Deshawn's life. But you know, 590 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: I think they realized pretty early on that that Ta 591 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 1: might not be the right guy. That's why you saw 592 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick playing early on and now you're seeing some 593 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: real struggles. So I think that Deshaun Watson trade they 594 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: were eyeing that they were hoping that happened. It didn't. 595 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: So I mean that they can have all the first 596 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: round picks and they can have all the cap room, 597 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: but if you don't have your your QB of the future, 598 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: then you're still going to be constantly looking for him 599 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: and wanting him, trying to trade for and trying to 600 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: draft him, whatever it may be in the future of Miami. 601 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: But I just don't see two of being the guy 602 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: their long term. He's Carson Palmer, former NFL quarterback who 603 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: joins us every Monday. The difference between college and pros. 604 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: We hear this a lot. In college, you throw to 605 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: the guy who's open. In the pros, you have to 606 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: throw a guy open. Explain that difference and how long 607 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: did it take for you to be able to understand 608 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: that concept. Yeah. In college mean you have the ability 609 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: to sit back and wait for a receiver to get 610 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: open and then throw it so that the receiver, once 611 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: he gets the top of his route and breaks in 612 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: or out, can get his eyes back to the quarterback 613 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: and see the ball coming at him. That's because in college, 614 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: most guys in the back end run four or five 615 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: to four six forty r dash and so when you 616 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: get to the NFL, just about everybody on the back 617 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: end runs four three to four four, which means all 618 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: of those windows are smaller. The ball can't be in 619 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: the air for longer, for very much longer, because defensive 620 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: are closing on it. So you have to know that 621 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: your receivers getting up to ten yards and he's breaking in, 622 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: and you need to throw that ball when he's about 623 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: seven or eight yards, pass the line of scrimmage into 624 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: his route so that when he rounds those last two 625 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: yards and is coming in, he will not see the 626 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: ball come off your fingertips. He will turn his head 627 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: to the quarterback and the ball will be about halfway 628 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: to him. In the NFL, and in college, you know 629 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: that that small difference in a forty yard dashtime means 630 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: those windows close extremely fast and guys are only open 631 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: for really a very short period of time. And in 632 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: college you see, you know, you watch to Oklahoma play, 633 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: you see guys running, you know, wide open, butt naked 634 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: down the middle of the field. You just do not 635 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: see that at the NFL level. That's the difference between 636 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: when you have guys that run four three in college 637 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: and you're playing against guys that run four six. Once 638 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: you get to the NFL, everybody's running four three four four. 639 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: So those windows and those button naked receivers aren't running 640 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: wide open down the middle of the field. That's just 641 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: a that's a football term, right, butt naked but naked. Yeah. 642 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: Every coach uses it. Oh they do. You can use 643 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: it too, Daniel. Okay, all right, So give me another 644 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 1: term I haven't heard. Uh, that's clean. No, that's a 645 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: tough one. What do you mean that's clean, that's you know, 646 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 1: family friendly. Yeah, but like I'm assuming this is disney Ish. 647 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: Aren't we on ESPN Disney? No, we're not. No, we're not. 648 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: We're not on We're on Pea but Peacock. There you go, 649 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: butt naked open um or or from peak Peacock. Can 650 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: I say wide ass open? Yeah? You can't? You sure 651 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: that works too? I think that's a show on Peacock 652 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: White ass open yeah. Um. You know, you start to 653 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: look at Dak Prescott and you come off that injury 654 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 1: and we talked out about this before where you can't 655 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: think about the injury, and it seems like he's pretty 656 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: comfortable in whatever. I don't like him throwing fifty times 657 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 1: it feels like they're a whole better when they run 658 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: more than they pass. But what did you make a 659 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. I think he's throwing the ball better than 660 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: I've seen him throw the ball in the first five 661 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: years of his career. He threw on the run, working 662 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: his way up to the line of scrimmage, a high 663 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: angle corner route that was one of the most beautiful 664 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: balls I've seen throw. This season, you're not seeing any 665 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: lingering issues in his or his confidence in any lingering 666 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: issues confidence wise and stepping up in the pocket and 667 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: moving around. I've seen him break numerous tackles. He's not, 668 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, gingerly moving around. You know, he's not overly concerned. 669 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,919 Speaker 1: You can tell. You know, as you know year one 670 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 1: post surgery, there's always going to be naturally some some 671 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: things holding you back. But as far as when he 672 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: hits the grass and it's Sunday, he looks really confident 673 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: in the stability of his leg, he looks really confident 674 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: in the guys around him. He's playing with a smile 675 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: on his face. I Mean, there's no more pressure than 676 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: a quarter backs playing under than Dak Prescott and Dallas 677 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. So I mean he just looks he 678 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 1: just looks back. He looks healthy. It's really fun to watch. 679 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: Did people taunt like this, this whole taunting rule and 680 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: how players respond did did players? Did you ever taunt 681 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: when you were in the NFL? Not really? I mean 682 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: it was talking trash. You know that The fun part 683 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 1: of talking trash is they're trying to kind of wipe 684 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: that off the game. You know, you think back to 685 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: like one of my favorite players to watch ever was 686 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. Philip Rivers would only be moving backwards if 687 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: he were playing in today's game. I mean, he talked 688 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: more than anybody, and I guess you can call it taunted, 689 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: but it was just talking trash and it was part 690 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: of the game. It was fun back in my day. 691 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Chad Johnson, Chad Ochocinco sent a box of 692 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: pepto bismol to Cleveland before we were playing Cleveland. He 693 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: sent us the deep is that taunting? Can you get? 694 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: Can you get a fifteen yard penalty? On Thursday? He 695 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: sent up to bismol, the to the Cleveland Browns. It's 696 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: just getting out of control. What's Philip Rivers saying on 697 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,800 Speaker 1: the field? It's all clean I've never heard from Curse, 698 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: have yet to hear him curse. But he's just having fun. 699 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean that that's the game. You're allowed to talk. 700 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: You used to be allowed to talk. You know. There 701 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 1: was always um some rising going back and forth, and 702 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: now it looks like it feels like they're trying to 703 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: get rid of it. But I don't, I don't think. 704 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 1: I think. I think Philip would have a number of 705 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: fines going into weeks as it's six now week seven. 706 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 1: But so he would just say, you know, you can't 707 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 1: stop us, or you know you can't you know, gosh, 708 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: dang it, you can't sack me, or yeah, or don't 709 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: try to bring that will free safety blitz on me 710 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: and he throws it the other way for a touchdown. 711 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: To me, he was always constantly talking and that's what 712 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: got him going, and it pissed off guys on the 713 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: other side of the ball. But that's just that's the 714 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,919 Speaker 1: way that I grew up playing football. In the game. 715 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: I knew today's game, they're just trying to get rid 716 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: of it, and it is what it is, okay, But 717 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: when a guy sacks you and he stands over you 718 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: and then walks over you, like that always bothered me. 719 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: That's where I want to like reach my hand up 720 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: and you know, hit you in the groin if you 721 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 1: step over me, did you. Yeah, that's that's really disrespectful. 722 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, you're getting into being 723 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: a respectful player by you know, I don't think there's 724 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: anything disrespectful about talking trash. But when you stand over 725 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: a player or spike the ball in their face, or 726 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: do the Alan iverson Tyrone Lou where he walked over 727 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,240 Speaker 1: him after he hit that three pointer like that, that's 728 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 1: starting to cross the line of being disrespectful. I think 729 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: that's what they're trying to get out of the way 730 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: and get out of the game. Unfortunately, when the league 731 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: decides to get rid of something, they decide to get 732 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: rid of it entirely, so you're not allowed to talk 733 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 1: to any other you know, any other player in the 734 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: field that's not one of your team members. They're just 735 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,959 Speaker 1: trying to wipe it out of the game. Unfortunately. Great 736 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: to talk to you as always, Carson, Thanks for joining us. 737 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: Thanks Dan,
