1
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: With three and out from each side. Thomas Morstead has

2
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,799
Speaker 1: had in some ways his best year at thirty seven

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: years old. Drives Darius Davis back and a pretty good return.

4
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 2: Goods.

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 3: Turning to great Darius Davis, he is gone.

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 4: There are no flags.

7
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 3: On the field and those are the first points on

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 3: this Monday night touchdown.

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: For the rookie Eckler.

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 3: The touchdown machine is in and the Chargers add to

11
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: their lead, pour down and go and shut out of

12
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: the end zone. That's fitting right, there is Conklin. No

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 3: touchdowns allowed tonight by the Chargers, and the Chargers.

14
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: Will take over on downs.

15
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: Derwin James is fired up big night for this LA defense.

16
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: Some games it takes everything you got, you leave part

17
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 2: of yourself on the field, and you're okay with that

18
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: because that's what.

19
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 5: It took to emerge victorious, to be a winner.

20
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: Then there are games like what we witnessed at the Metalwlands,

21
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: a game where you know the bare minimum will do.

22
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: All you have to do is show up, put forth

23
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: a professional effort, and then the other team will just

24
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: self emolate right before your very eyes enter. The Los

25
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: Angeles Chargers, who got an early punt return, took advantage

26
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: of some turnovers by a miserable Jets offense and cruise

27
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: to a twenty seven to six win on Monday Night Football.

28
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 2: A woful contest in terms of unless you're a Chargers fan,

29
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: in terms of football entertainment. In what's the first of

30
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: a run of not so high primetime games, Dan Hans

31
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: is here with Greg rosehal Mark Sessler. Obviously, you guys know,

32
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna be happy about this game as I

33
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 2: talk about it. But for the Chargers, it's another nice

34
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: win for them in primetime. Even if it wasn't overly impressive,

35
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 2: they end up winning by over twenty points, so it

36
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: ain't all bad.

37
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 1: Right.

38
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 4: It was crazy this whole game, thinking I can't believe

39
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 4: they're only up by this much. But then you would

40
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 4: look at Justin Herbert's numbers, and you would look at

41
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 4: Zach Wilson's numbers, and they were exactly the same, except

42
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 4: one takes a ton of sacks and one fumbles and

43
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 4: one turns in a bad place to worst plays, and

44
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 4: that's Zack Wilson. It wasn't Justin Herbert. But I do

45
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 4: think you got to give the Chargers defense some credits, like, oh,

46
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 4: they played the Bears. All they played. The Bears played

47
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 4: two good offensive games sandwiched around that one where they

48
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 4: dominated as bad as the Jets offense has been. And

49
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 4: they've only topped three hundred yards in a game twice.

50
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 4: So this wasn't, you know, the whole season, So this

51
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: wasn't totally out of the ordin This is the least

52
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 4: they've scored, this is the most sacks that Zach Wilson

53
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 4: has taken. They turned the ball over three times, and

54
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 4: they're getting good play from Joey Bosa, Khalil Mack and

55
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 4: Tully Polozu. So it's been such a bad Chargers defense

56
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 4: for so long under Staley that even the last month

57
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 4: where they've they've looked pretty good. It's it's baby steps,

58
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 4: but it's something for them to at least feel like

59
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 4: maybe they got a future.

60
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you're right. I mean, it's like it's

61
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 6: much easier to focus on, you know. And I think

62
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 6: Troy Aikman was doing this, like what is happening with

63
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 6: the Jets and why it's not working? It's so obvious

64
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 6: to us all. But what I see is like another

65
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 6: one of these examples. There's a couple teams out there

66
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 6: like this where it's like you've got a Jets defense

67
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 6: that held a good Chargers offense to one hundred and

68
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 6: ninety one total yards at three point four yards per carry.

69
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 6: They looked helpless, and it's like there's two This Jets

70
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 6: team is split right down the middle, and it's cracked

71
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 6: like an egg because the other side of the all

72
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 6: can't do it's it's it's part. And I just felt

73
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 6: like the cutaways to Robert Solid tonight, it was a

74
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 6: man a drift, and I think it's it's fair for

75
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 6: him to feel that way. It's also fair to look

76
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 6: at an organization that Dan, I think you tweeted about

77
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 6: this did nothing about the quarterback position before the trade deadline,

78
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 6: maybe overly loyal to the concept of Zach Wilson. I

79
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 6: think even a week ago, it's like you went into

80
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 6: this game saying, he's improving, there's hope here, there's X,

81
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 6: Y and Z. But it came to fruition tonight where

82
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 6: that's just simply not going to you know, it's not

83
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 6: going to carry you through the rest of this season,

84
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 6: And like, my hope for the Jets is damaged a

85
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 6: little because of what we saw tonight. It's it's I

86
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 6: don't know what to say. I feel like we've run

87
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 6: through all the narratives on Zach Wilson, We've run through

88
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 6: the narratives on this offense, and it's like, what do

89
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 6: you say at this point?

90
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been yelling about it for weeks that

91
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: it's absurd and it's embarrassing that they did not protect

92
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: themselves after Aaron Rodgers went down, knowing what they had

93
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: seen two years from Zach Wilson, that he's ineffective quarterback, way.

94
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 5: In over his head.

95
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 2: And then you look around the league and you see

96
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: what Tyson bage It has done for Chicago, which is

97
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: like move the ball at least. And you look at

98
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 2: what Josh Doobbs just did from Minnesota, a guy that

99
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,119
Speaker 2: they got, you know, moved I think from pick two

100
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: hundred to two twenty to get Dobbs in that building.

101
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 2: And then you look at a team like the Jets

102
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: that sat on their hands at the trade deadline, did

103
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: not react after the stunning Rogers injury. And that's not

104
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: all I thought. This game, all the Jets' warts were

105
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 2: on clear display in front of the national audience. And

106
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: if you've been listening to the show and paying attention,

107
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: Like I haven't been a cheerleader about this Jets team

108
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 2: the last few weeks, even though they were on a

109
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 2: winning streak. I don't believe Robert Sala is a difference

110
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 2: maker as a head coach. I don't believe that Nathaniel

111
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: Hackett is a guy that should be an offensive coordinator

112
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 2: if Aaron Rodgers isn't his quarterback. I don't believe the

113
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 2: offensive line is competitive with these injuries. And I don't

114
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: believe Zach Wilson is somebody that's going to take them

115
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: to the playoffs because he's gonna just keep killing him.

116
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: And I was getting into some Twitter skirmishes with Jets

117
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: fans because there's a faction of Jets fans that will

118
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 2: defend Zach Wilson because they're drinking the kool aid that

119
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 2: Joe Douglas and Robert Sala, who I do not feel

120
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 2: bad for because he's played.

121
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 5: A part in this.

122
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 2: Zach Wilson is secretly getting better a campaign that is

123
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: totally bs that you can't just look at what's happening

124
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: here and blame everything on Zach Wilson.

125
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 5: That's what they'll tell you.

126
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 2: And that's fair because the offensive line is weighing over

127
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: its head. But at the same time, a lot of

128
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 2: things go back to the quarterback. And Greg I thought

129
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 2: you put it well at the top, like there are

130
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 2: quarterbacks who can take a bad situation and make them better.

131
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 2: There's bad quarter There are types of quarterbacks that take

132
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 2: a bad situation and things stay level, and then there's

133
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 2: the Zach Wilson's who are in a bad situation and

134
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: make things worse. And you saw that clear on clear display.

135
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: Even though he didn't throw interceptions, he did everything else poorly.

136
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 2: And Troy Aikman is going nuts for the second time

137
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 2: on Monday Night Football in three months this year. Absolutely

138
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 2: you could hear him pulling his hair out because he

139
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: cannot watch this guy play at this level.

140
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I started writing down some of like the sarcastic

141
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 4: Troy Aikman bits. There was one thing coming out of

142
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 4: halftime and he said, well, you know, you would think

143
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 4: they'll improve in the second half. He's like, you would

144
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 4: think the law of averages would say they would. And

145
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 4: on that play where Zach Wilson spun out of a sack,

146
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 4: which one of the only times on that he spun

147
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 4: out of it, and it looked like he was going

148
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 4: to make a nice play, but then he misses the

149
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 4: easy throw to the sideline. He's like, he did the

150
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 4: hard part, you know, just like through throughout the game,

151
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 4: he said, He's like, I probably don't need to tell you,

152
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 4: you know, when it was a fourth down that they

153
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 4: struggle on this down too, and you could hear the

154
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 4: frustration from Troy. And that's a fun Troy Aikman. But

155
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 4: I'm sure it's not a fun broadcast to be a

156
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 4: Jets fan list, but you're also sharing it. I think

157
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 4: the comparison between him and Herbert is interesting tonight because

158
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 4: Herbert didn't make many big plays. Herbert's numbers are are woeful,

159
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 4: sixteen for thirty for one thirty six. It was one

160
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 4: of the worst days of Herbert's career. But he knows

161
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 4: how to manage a game. He saw what this game was.

162
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 4: He realized he just needs to avoid sacks, avoid mistakes.

163
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 4: The Jets hit him nine times in the first half,

164
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 4: thirteen times overall, and so he took five sacks. That's

165
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 4: a lot of sacks, actually, but Jack Wilson was hit

166
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 4: seven times. He took six sacks.

167
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 6: He fumbled it.

168
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 4: He made a lot of bad situations worse, and Herbert

169
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 4: saw where he was. He was gifted good field position

170
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 4: and he was gifted the punt return. And he was

171
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 4: just playing the game as if like I need to

172
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 4: just lamd this ship without making any big mistakes and

173
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 4: get out of here with a win. And that's what

174
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 4: he did.

175
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: And in fairness, Herbert did on one of his sacks

176
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 2: also fumbled the ball, but they had some.

177
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,719
Speaker 4: He had one near interception too.

178
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a good game he played. I mean,

179
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: gret Mark the Jets defense. You know, it's only a

180
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 2: matter of time now before you start hearing stories about

181
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 2: this Jets defense really starting to bubble over with frustration

182
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 2: because of the offense. It happened last year and now

183
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 2: it's just a matter of time because that was a

184
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: very embarrassing loss despite them playing very well.

185
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 6: Right, Like the DNA is already there, like this this

186
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 6: happened a year ago, and like I think the most

187
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 6: frustrating thing is that that felt like a bad dream.

188
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 6: You're back in it. There's this mythological concept that Aaron

189
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 6: Rodgers will come back at this point, But you know

190
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 6: what I wonder, like in another parallel universe, like how

191
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 6: different would this be because I look at this offensive

192
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 6: line and I think that's one of the biggest problems here.

193
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 6: Obviously it's been a disaster, like Billy Turner was destroyed tonight,

194
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 6: but they've had about three hundred and seventy eight line combinations,

195
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 6: and it's fair to wonder if Aaron Rodgers wouldn't have

196
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 6: suffered behind that too, it would be a better like

197
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 6: ecosystem in general. But it's a terrible situation for a

198
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 6: young quarterback. And I don't think you know, fight adding

199
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 6: these wide receivers that Aaron Rodgers wanted to pluck from

200
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 6: the universe, Like it's not a great wide receiver group

201
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 6: beyond Garrett Wilson, and it's just like this side of

202
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 6: the ball is a drift at sea, totally lost. And

203
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 6: you've got this defense that feels to me like one

204
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 6: of the greatest wasted defenses that we've seen in the

205
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 6: last decade, because they can what they did to Justin

206
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 6: Herbert tonight is extremely notable, and what they've been doing

207
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 6: to quarterbacks week after week is notable. And it's like

208
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 6: it's getting lost in the shuffle of one of the

209
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 6: worst offenses that we witnessed.

210
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 2: I'm Glad you said that, Mark, because you're right, this

211
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: is not a super Bowl team, even with Aaron Rodgers

212
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: healthy because of the offensive line and again, Nathaniel Hackett,

213
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 2: like Billy Turner, is getting lit up over and over

214
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 2: and over on that right side, and at no point

215
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: do they change anything to help him out or take

216
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 2: him out of the game, and they just expect things

217
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 2: to get better. And you're right, Rogers did pave the

218
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 2: way for Randall Cobb being on this team, who was

219
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 2: mercifully phased out finally after the bye. He was the

220
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: worst wide receiver in the league by some metrics, and

221
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: Alan Lazard has not been their number two. There was

222
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 2: reporting out there that Devonte Adams was some of they

223
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 2: were hot for above ahead of the trade deadline. But Greg,

224
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 2: to your point about pushing the trade deadline back a week,

225
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 2: I think there was some bad luck there with what

226
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: was going on with the Raiders at that moment. But

227
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 2: that also tells you that the Jets understand a couple

228
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 2: of things. That Lazard is not a number two, that

229
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 2: the Cob is not a real slot receiver, and now

230
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 2: I hope they're learning that Zach Wilson is not a quarterback.

231
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna guess, as we throw to some Robert

232
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: solid postgame sound, that he still believes in the kid

233
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 2: and there is room for growth.

234
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 5: Rob take it away.

235
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 6: Was this a step back for Zach Robert?

236
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 7: I don't know if you can say step back. You know,

237
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 7: there's like I said, there's it's all encompassing. Like you know,

238
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 7: obviously he's gonna want some things that he wishes he

239
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 7: could have done better, you know, from him from protection

240
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 7: the it's just a little bit of everything.

241
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 5: It's just.

242
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 7: One of those bizarre games. It's just every time we

243
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 7: had momentum, like I said, just a self inflicted wound wound.

244
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 7: Was it his best game? Obviously not. Was it his

245
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 7: worst game? No, I'm not gonna say it was even

246
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 7: close to his worst game.

247
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 6: Wait a minute, like that emphatically says it's not even

248
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 6: close to his worst game.

249
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 4: Some of those bad games, like they were pretty bad.

250
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 5: Sala Is not sala Is.

251
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if is he not smart enough to

252
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 2: see it? Maybe he's just the wool is over his

253
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 2: eyes here, But if he's packing up his stuff in

254
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 2: a box in January, uh, it's gonna be because he

255
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 2: was not he was complicit and how this all has

256
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 2: gone down after Rogers' injury.

257
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 4: I mean, well, they're not good at a quarterback evaluation

258
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 4: by any logical metric, you know, just because they got

259
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 4: in with Zach Wilson that ended up being a bad pick.

260
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: A lot of teams I think would have made it,

261
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 4: but sticking with him last year and versus you know,

262
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 4: like the Mike Whites of the world and stuff, and

263
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 4: sticking with them through that and the way that they

264
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 4: didn't get anyone this year. But when you start the game,

265
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 4: I just even think, like back to that first drive,

266
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 4: like these things kind of let you know what kind

267
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 4: of Zach Wilson knight it's gonna be. The very first

268
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 4: throw was like to the moon. It wasn't even close

269
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 4: to his receiver. And then the next very next throw

270
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 4: almost got his receiver killed. And those are like the

271
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 4: first dude throws. And I just felt even in that

272
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 4: moments like, oh, it's gonna be one of those nights.

273
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 4: And the Charters defense feels it. You almost can see

274
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 4: the teams love to play the Jets because Joey Bosa

275
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 4: and Mac and Tula Pilotu like they can rack up

276
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 4: sack numbers. The secondary, which has been a disaster this year,

277
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 4: can fly around and make big hits. I think Alloie

278
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 4: Gillman does add something to this team. He came back

279
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 4: last week and he's a real player there at safety.

280
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 4: But there there's kind of a frenzy of like, ooh,

281
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 4: we can really tee off. I haven't seen a charge

282
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 4: of defense. I can even do that against bad defenses

283
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 4: in a while. So that's that's progress. But I think

284
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 4: it gives a defense a lot of confidence when you

285
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 4: just start the game like that.

286
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 6: And Dan, I think it's ominous that all this was

287
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 6: taking place while Arnold Schwarzenegger was introducing the nation and

288
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 6: an international audience to his pet Donkey. It just seemed

289
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 6: like too many things were happening at once here.

290
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 2: You know, I'll take this step further. Even before that

291
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: first series, Greg, they showed Wilson coming out of the

292
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 2: tunnel before kickoff, and it's it's like, this is not

293
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 2: a starting quarterback who's going to be successful.

294
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna say he looks scared. He just looked.

295
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: He just looked like he was about a million miles

296
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: away from New Jersey and certainly not someone that was

297
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 2: about to step on the field and make plays, and

298
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 2: he didn't. And I just I want because I think

299
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 2: these things get flattened out and it's gonna be like, oh,

300
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 2: you know, you're just saying everything's on the quarterback. It's

301
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 2: not only on the quarterback. There are a lot of

302
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: things wrong with this team. To Mark's point, I think

303
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 2: one thing that's been made clear, uh, through these eight

304
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 2: weeks is that the Jets offense was flawed in a

305
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: lot of ways. And Rogers I don't think was gonna

306
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: ride in and make this a top ten offense. I

307
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 2: think that would have been a storyline around this team

308
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: if he was there. But even if he doesn't blow

309
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 2: his achilles on the fourth play, which is just rotten luck,

310
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 2: what's the chances he's healthy at this point of the

311
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 2: season with this offensive line, which was started out as

312
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 2: a question mark, then it got snowed under by injury.

313
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: So I just I struggle to take the Jets seriously.

314
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 2: They might hang around because of that defense and steal

315
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 2: a couple more games, but this is what it looks

316
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 2: like when they the defense, as good as it played today,

317
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: didn't have those big turnovers. This is what it can

318
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 2: look like because the offense is that bad. And it

319
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: was just as bad last week against the Giants. Uh,

320
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 2: And I don't give them any automatics going further, going

321
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: further next week, what it's gonna be Billy Turner against

322
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 2: Max Crosby.

323
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 5: Good luck to that, Good luck man.

324
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 4: You don't want Yeah, you don't want to lose to

325
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 4: Pierce and O'Connell. But who knows. They're a team that

326
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 4: I feel like is going to be in every game.

327
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 4: And despite the final score, they were in this That's

328
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 4: the crazy thing about it is they held Justin Herbert

329
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 4: in the Chargers, so I know have been struggling. I

330
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 4: think it's fair to say the Chargers aren't a good

331
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 4: offense at this point.

332
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 5: I can't take them seriously either.

333
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 4: They were a good offense. Yeah, for the first month

334
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 4: of the season. They've lost Mike Williams, they've lost Joshua Palmer,

335
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 4: and they haven't been a good offense now for about

336
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 4: five weeks. So that's a pretty long stretch here. They

337
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 4: had the good, pretty good game against the Bears, but

338
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 4: even that was like a half, and it was against

339
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 4: the Bears, but they held Herbert to three point four

340
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 4: or the Charges to three point four yards per play.

341
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 4: It was actually better when they ran the ball. It

342
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 4: was three point one yards per pass per dropback there

343
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 4: for the Chargers, so like they got one drive, it

344
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 4: was an eight minute drive at the end of the

345
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 4: third quarter into the fourth quarter where they hit four

346
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 4: straight third and it felt like old school Chargers in

347
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 4: that it was like run two yards, run negative one yards.

348
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 4: And then Herbert hits a nice throw on third and nine,

349
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 4: and they did that for about three throws and then

350
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 4: Keenan Allen made the one exciting offensive play of the

351
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 4: night with that jumping catch and great a great Charger

352
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 4: goes over ten thousand yards for his career, which is

353
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 4: pretty cool, second all time in team history. He has

354
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 4: said he really wants to pass Antonio Gates. He's got

355
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 4: a shot to do it. He would probably have to

356
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 4: play two more years. Like that was the nicest offensive

357
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 4: moment of the night. But then that was it, and they,

358
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 4: you know, their drives stopped right there too, like most

359
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 4: of their drives stopped. The difference was they weren't like

360
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 4: giving up twenty yards and getting blown out of field

361
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 4: goal range. They would just stay in field goal range

362
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 4: and they would hit their little field goal and they

363
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 4: only scored thirteen points on offense.

364
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 2: It was the feeling when you're as you're watching the game,

365
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: like the Chargers were like almost like will hunting on

366
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 2: the chalkboard, trying to figure out some type of equation,

367
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: what that will allow them to let the Jets back

368
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: in the game, and they were just like, we can't.

369
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 2: We want to charge of this and make it come

370
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 2: down to the last drive, but there's no mathematical possibility

371
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 2: that the Jets as they're currently constituted right now will

372
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 2: make this interesting. So they're like, all right, I guess

373
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 2: we'll just win twenty seven.

374
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 6: I I with you. I mean I thought, I honestly

375
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 6: thought that, Like I don't recall too many games where

376
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 6: I thought that. Justin Herbert, I mean, he was floating

377
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 6: through a dark dream during the first part of this.

378
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 6: It's like, that's what's so frustrating to me. It's like,

379
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 6: great for Keenan Allen, I'm happy for him, but that's

380
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 6: what the Chargers are. It's like these these benchmark statistical

381
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 6: moments for these players, the team achieves nothing on the whole,

382
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 6: and like justin Herbert tonight, like this is what's so

383
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 6: frustrating about this experience. The Jets defense took a great

384
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 6: quarterback and made them look completely lost for big chunks

385
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 6: of this game and it amounts to nothing. I just

386
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 6: find that so frustrating. Like, I mean, we haven't seen

387
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 6: I had not seen a game with Justin Herbert at

388
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 6: the helm like that, and the Jets can do that,

389
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 6: and they've done that to multiple quarterbacks and that's where

390
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 6: we're left, and it's like, you know what, Sorry, it's

391
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 6: like it's with no one's a lot of say thing

392
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 6: about Nathaniel Hackett now because it was unpopular what happened

393
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 6: to him a couple of months ago, but like, where

394
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 6: is the creativity help this tee?

395
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 5: You could you could criticize it, and well, I know.

396
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 6: I know, you know what I mean. Though, it's like

397
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 6: I thought that was it was way too severe, like

398
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,479
Speaker 6: when it happened, and like he's he's he seems like

399
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 6: a wonderful guy. So it's like it's not the first

400
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 6: person I want to like take aim At. I just

401
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 6: want to fly around like a butterfly exactly like I

402
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 6: like him. But like there's just there's just like no answer.

403
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 5: He's many problems with that offense, no doubt, So I

404
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 5: don't want to.

405
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 6: I don't want to keep going on the same road.

406
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 6: But it's just like it's so frustrating to watch a

407
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 6: great NFL defense, which is very rare in twenty twenty three,

408
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 6: capsized and left on an island the way they are.

409
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 4: I know, when when it was Huff and Jermaine Johnson,

410
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 4: I was thinking, I'm with you, maybe Salah's not a

411
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 4: difference making coach, but I was thinking of the difference

412
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 4: between him and Staley, who were hired the same year.

413
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 4: They're both third year head coaches, both a little n battled,

414
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 4: could you know, use a playoff run or a nice season,

415
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 4: and at least Sala like you see his imprint. You

416
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 4: see what they are. You see the vision on defense,

417
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 4: and you see that they were able to build that

418
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 4: vision and a lot of it's with you know, new

419
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 4: players like Johnson and Huff has become a good player

420
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 4: under him, and it's like they have something that's his.

421
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 4: Staley is a defensive coach and you're you're not really

422
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 4: sure what he is because their offense is always changing

423
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 4: and like so Salah has something.

424
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 5: To hold on to.

425
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 4: The problem is that their offensive line is the what

426
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 4: their GM is trying to build and that's been a

427
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 4: total disaster four years in. I guess, and you know

428
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 4: that's it.

429
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,120
Speaker 2: My salad thing is more. I think he's a little

430
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 2: more sizzle than steak. I think one guy doesn't get

431
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,959
Speaker 2: enough credit is Jeff Olbrick, their defensive coordinator, And they

432
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: have so much talent on that side of the ball. Like,

433
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 2: if the defense wasn't balling out, Sala would be the

434
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 2: worst coach.

435
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 5: In the league.

436
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 2: But I just think his leadership, I don't know, sometimes

437
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 2: at least something that be his And I like these

438
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 2: they are dreadful. They're even worse than the Giants in

439
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 2: the first quarter in terms of scoring opposition They're they're

440
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 2: minus three trillion about And I don't know. I just

441
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 2: think there's a lot to be concerned about right now

442
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 2: where we are this Monday night. Is a Jets fan,

443
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 2: there's a lot to be concerned about. The only the

444
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 2: only good thing before we take a break, The only

445
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 2: thing I could take out of tonight is like Jets

446
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 2: fan misery, big w over Chargers gonna Chargers Nation, Like

447
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 2: in terms of like what it sucks to be uh,

448
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 2: it definitely sucks way worse to be a Jets fan

449
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 2: than a Chargers fan at least tonight. Tonight we got

450
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 2: that w take that Charger is gonna Charger. We showed

451
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: you what it's really all about to be miserable just

452
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 2: in the season.

453
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 5: Baby damn. Let's take a break. All right? That was great.

467
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 2: it and had a good mark.

468
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 5: We had a good time doing it, didn't we.

469
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 6: I think that it's, you know, an exercise that we've

470
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 6: been working on weekly. I thought today was the most

471
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 6: fun yet. And it was a thorny game with lots

472
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 6: of plot points, and you know, we went at it

473
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 6: in multiple ways.

474
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 4: So like those two teams definitely feel like they're in

475
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 4: a different league than the Chargers and the Jets, and

476
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 4: they are. They're in a league of like teams that

477
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 4: could win the Super Bowl. And that was now what

478
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 4: we saw tonight.

479
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 5: True contenders.

480
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 2: Correct, And this is actually a free trial week for

481
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 2: NFL Plus, so you can access that. We'll send out

482
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 2: a link on atn's handle. All right, let's start with

483
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 2: the Cardinals. Head coach Jonathan Gannon said, Kyler Murray will

484
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 2: start in Week ten against the Falcons. That from our

485
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: own Omar Ruiz or buddy, what a good guy Omar is.

486
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 2: If all goes well in practice this week, that's the one,

487
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 2: you know disclaimer there, as long as he doesn't have

488
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 2: a setback with his knee, he's going to take reps

489
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 2: with the starters and he will make his debut against

490
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 2: the Falcons.

491
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 6: Mark your thoughts, well, I just I you know, for me,

492
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 6: I came into the season thinking he might be traded,

493
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 6: They might find a way to cajole us into believing

494
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 6: that there was a reason to sit him the entire

495
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: season because of their tank situation. But you know what

496
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 6: they have like already two number one picks and a

497
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 6: second and I think three thirds and a fourth and

498
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 6: multiple fifths, so they're well stocked. And I think if

499
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 6: any from another angle, if you're Jonathan Gannon, you're the

500
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:15,439
Speaker 6: coaching staff, like a post Cliff Kingsbury view at what

501
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray can be in this offense, with this team,

502
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 6: with this roster is good self scouting. And from another angle,

503
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 6: if he plays well, if you wanted to move on,

504
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 6: like move on from him and like pick up a

505
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 6: different quarterback in the draft, you can elevate his trade

506
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 6: value if he plays well. So I kind of see

507
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 6: from another angle competitive angle, because the Cardinals have from

508
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 6: the beginning sort of said we're gonna try to win

509
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:40,919
Speaker 6: these games. Are roster is not going to allow us

510
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 6: to do that. But I think about a month end

511
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 6: of the year, I was like, yeah, I think they're

512
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 6: gonna play Kyler Murray. And I think as soon as

513
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 6: they feel he's ready to go, let's go for the

514
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 6: ride and see where we end wind up. In January.

515
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 4: It's at an interesting time though I did not necessarily

516
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 4: think Kyler Murray was gonna play this year, and I'm

517
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 4: glad to be proven wrong. Maybe those cynical thought. They

518
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 4: have the number one overall picked as of this recording,

519
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 4: and there's two quarterback prospects in this class, Kayleb Williams

520
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 4: and Drake May that you know coming into the draft

521
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 4: are probably going to be higher touted than any quarterback

522
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 4: of the last two years, at least, like they would

523
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 4: have been higher than In Stroud and Bryce Young. And

524
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 4: they're real deal one two type of guys. Kyler Murray

525
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,239
Speaker 4: is probably good enough to get them out of that

526
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 4: top two where they won't even have a chance to

527
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 4: necessary to take us. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it won't be.

528
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 4: This team is pretty rough and they're pretty injured. Their

529
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 4: running backs are all injured, Michael Wilson, they're nice rookie

530
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 4: receivers injured, Zach Ertz is injured. Like it's a terrible defense.

531
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 4: Like they're still a mess. Maybe they will have a

532
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 4: top two pick.

533
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 2: But they could chase Kyler Murray and get a number

534
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 2: one there or two and then wheel and deal to

535
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 2: try and move up the board.

536
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 5: They're different fare Yeah.

537
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 4: That's true, Like they could have the five overall pick

538
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 4: and if Kyler Murray's available, it's true, but it does

539
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 4: you know, certainly integrity, and I think a genuine belief

540
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 4: that they want Kyler Murray to be their future quarterback

541
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 4: is what the point I'm trying to get to. And

542
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 4: I think they would love him to play well and

543
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 4: make them feel good about having Kyler Murray, which makes sense,

544
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 4: makes sense?

545
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I hear it.

546
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 2: I feel like it's a nice sample size for them,

547
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 2: although it should be to be fair to Kyler Murrady,

548
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 2: expect the guy come back from reconstructive knee surgery.

549
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 5: I don't know what.

550
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 2: You shouldn't judge him too harshly on how the next

551
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 2: nine weeks go or whatever, but they get another look

552
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 2: at him before making a huge franchise decision. The Giants

553
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 2: made a huge franchise decision when they gave Danny Dimes

554
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 2: a one hundred and sixty million contract dollar contract extension.

555
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 5: This offseason, and one of.

556
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: The worst seasons in recent franchise history, hit its rock

557
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: bottom moment on Monday when it was confirmed that Jones

558
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 2: tore is acl in the loss to the Raiders. Tyrod

559
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 2: Taylor's out at least three more games with his rib injury,

560
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 2: so it will be there is the kid Tommy de

561
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 2: Vito starting. Let's listen to Dable.

562
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, well we have de Vito Barkley's on a practice squad,

563
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 8: and you know we haven't been back for We've been

564
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 8: back for less than twelve hours. So you know, I

565
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 8: have some meetings today with Joe as a day goes on,

566
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 8: and we'll see where it goes.

567
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 9: Yeah.

568
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 5: No, I think Tommy did a good job.

569
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 8: But again, I'm not going to give you one thing,

570
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 8: and it's a different thing. I have confidence in Tommy.

571
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 8: He's done a good job. But I, you know, I

572
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 8: sit down and talk with Joe and figure out what's next.

573
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 5: Greg.

574
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 2: The Giants are steaming toward four and thirteen, which is

575
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 2: going to give them a top five pick as well.

576
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 5: Daniel Jones.

577
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: Yes, it was one hundred and sixty one hundred and

578
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 2: sixty million dollar extension, but there's only one year left

579
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 2: of guaranteed money after this year, so they are very

580
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 2: much in position to go after a QB as well.

581
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:56,479
Speaker 4: Right, and Danny Dimes, Yeah, he's guaranteed thirty five million

582
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 4: next year, so he's he's either on the roster or

583
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 4: you're just eating that or or trading that and paying

584
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 4: for it if you got a topic. But I don't

585
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 4: know that they might be in the in the position

586
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 4: right after the Bears. Now the Bears owned the Panthers pick.

587
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 4: The two of them play each other, which is bizarre

588
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 4: on Thursday night, and so they own both of those picks,

589
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 4: so they have a good chance. But you throw the

590
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 4: Giants in there, you throw the Cardinals in there, maybe

591
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 4: the Patriots, And this is a really strong top three too,

592
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 4: because Marvin Harrison's son is like another generational receiver pick,

593
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 4: but he's probably going top three too, And like, these

594
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 4: picks are gonna be valuable. And the Giants, who knows

595
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 4: they to me, they're the team I could see of

596
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 4: all those teams that might not win a game the

597
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 4: rest of the season if they're starting to Vito or Barkley.

598
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 4: Sounded like he was leaving a little room there to

599
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 4: maybe switch to Barkley, which which is possible, but I'm

600
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 4: not sure that's gonna make much of a difference.

601
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 6: I think, like it's pretty interesting that Brian Dable was

602
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 6: hired to be a QB whisper, But he's telling the

603
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 6: nation with a bit of a smarmy look on his

604
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 6: face that Tommy DeVito played pretty well, So something fishy

605
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 6: is going on. Here, and I kind of like it.

606
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 6: If you're a Giants fan, you've got to get through

607
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 6: two tough months. But what they're trying to do is

608
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 6: tell you we're gonna have a whole different quarterback that

609
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 6: you never even heard of in the pro system in

610
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 6: a couple months. He's gonna be one of the top

611
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,959
Speaker 6: college quarterbacks around. That's what Brian Dables.

612
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: Is it smarmy or do you mean more? Was it

613
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 2: like the I mean that has the canary in its

614
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 2: mouth like a.

615
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 6: Little yeah, just sort of like sitting there like, yo,

616
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 6: I think listen, guys, like I know what I'm talking about.

617
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 6: And Tommy DeVito looked pretty good out there. It's like,

618
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Like if you're a child that's been watching

619
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 6: football for twelve months, you know that's not the case.

620
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 6: But we'll all sitting buy it.

621
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 5: Well, what's he going to say? Mark?

622
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 6: I know? But like, but I think because I think

623
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 6: the larger plan is gets through a terrible nuclear winner

624
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 6: and you come out in the spring with one of

625
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 6: the top college quarterbacks and Brian Dables back sitting on

626
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 6: the throne.

627
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 4: Well it's crazy though, coming off that Jones contract. I

628
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 4: mean it is I feel bad for Daniel Jones of

629
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 4: course with that injury, because it was as ugly at

630
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 4: season that could be, and he was bruised and battered.

631
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 4: And now we're at the point where it's like, is

632
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones ever going to play for the Giants again?

633
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 4: Maybe not if they get the top five pick, and

634
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 4: if he is available, think of those teams, like who

635
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 4: would be available off the teams justin fields, Kyler Murray,

636
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 4: maybe Daniel Jones, maybe Mac Jones for your third round pick.

637
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 4: You know, like I don't know, I don't know what

638
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 4: he would really fetch in the market, but a lot

639
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 4: of quarterbacks could be available.

640
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 5: Saucy Zach Wilson.

641
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 2: In other news, the Vikings not a surprise here. They

642
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 2: planned to start Joshua Dobbs against the Saints after his

643
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 2: three touchdown relief effort against.

644
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 5: Who's against the Falcons? I believe who and they get Kyler.

645
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 4: They're just kind of in the crosshairs of all these

646
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 4: Cardinals Qbs.

647
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 2: So that is logical and we'll see what Dobbs can

648
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 2: do with some more reps. Behind the scenes there bad

649
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: news for cam Akers, who came back from an achilles

650
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: injury actually became the first guy ever to tear his

651
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 2: achilles and then not miss an entire year back for

652
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl with the Rams a couple of years ago,

653
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: but now tore's achilles again with the Vikings, and he

654
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 2: is obviously out for the season and a running back

655
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: two achilles. Taras h you don't. You hate to say it,

656
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 2: but the chances are we might not see cam Akers

657
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 2: around anymore.

658
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 5: But good luck to him.

659
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 2: And finally, Taylor Heineke, he will remain the starter for

660
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 2: the Atlanta Falcons.

661
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 5: I guess he did enough.

662
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: To convince Arthur Smith that he is the better option

663
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 2: than Desmond Ritter.

664
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 5: I believe Arthur Smith shaved his mustache. Let's let's listen

665
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 5: into Artie.

666
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 10: Going to this week. We'll call with Taylor this week

667
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 10: and you'll kind of reassess after this week going into

668
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 10: the bye. Uh, you know, there's always things to work on.

669
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 10: You know, he's played the last six six quarters, and

670
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 10: you know he scored forty eight points with him back there. Uh,

671
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 10: absolutely one more than that. But it's just that'll be

672
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 10: the plan which week.

673
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 5: I mean, I can't take him seriously, but God, go ahead.

674
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 6: Wait a minute, like hold on, I will say one

675
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 6: thing for him, he had created a somewhat edgy, edgier

676
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 6: version of himself, looks wise, and he went back to

677
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 6: he now looks like his own dad. Like I liked

678
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 6: what he had going on before, So I'm not but.

679
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 4: You need to be maybe you need to be winning.

680
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 4: Like he hasn't earned that mustache. He wasn't speaking with

681
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 4: as much huts by either. I feel like now he's

682
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 4: kind of backpedaling.

683
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 2: Didn't his father is any a billionaire that founded FedEx.

684
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 6: No, but I'm saying he maybe looks like his Well,

685
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 6: first of all, it doesn't help when you take the

686
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 6: older look, which he just did there, and you've got

687
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 6: this gigantic like IBM, like they're sponsored by IBM. It's

688
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 6: like IBM just reminds us of like dads from the

689
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 6: eighties and nineties. So don't love that. But like Arthur

690
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 6: Smith seemed very morose there, a little downtrodden. I think

691
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 6: that his you know, words of wisdom to the press

692
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 6: have fallen on deaf ears. Finally, there's a lot of people,

693
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 6: you know, riled up about what he's had to say,

694
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 6: and I think he's, you know, it's gotten back to him.

695
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 4: I think they have a buy coming up. So at

696
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 4: some point we're probably gonna see Desmond Ridder again this season,

697
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 4: but ultimately Arthur Smith hopes we don't because that means

698
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 4: Taylor Heineke is on a heater and they don't have

699
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 4: to go back to him. But most likely we will

700
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 4: see Desmond Ritter again at some point.

701
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 5: Let's take a look at Arthur Smith's dad. Let's see

702
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 5: what a billionaire looks like.

703
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 4: We have a picture that's Fred.

704
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 2: Smith right there. Yeah, it looks like a guy that

705
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 2: makes decisions that are successful in terms of the bottom line.

706
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 5: Looks like a guy that stays in the black.

707
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 6: Looks rich.

708
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 2: Jamar Chase, good job, you're muffsmark A good job by

709
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 2: Chris Collinsworth on the Sunday Night Football telecast. Jamar Chase

710
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: went up for a ball in the second half of

711
00:33:55,320 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 2: their win against the Bills and came down wickedly hard.

712
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:08,240
Speaker 2: That makes me think of the John Travolta introducing Dina

713
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 2: Menzel at the Grammys a couple of years ago, or

714
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 2: maybe it was the Oscars, and he butchered her name,

715
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 2: and he knew he was in trouble as he's reading

716
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 2: the teleprompter, and you could see a flash over his face.

717
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I don't know how to say her name.

718
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 2: So he kind of slows down and goes the wiki

719
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 2: lit Dean Menzie. Can we find that Eric? That's a

720
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 2: good way to close the show. Can you find John

721
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,959
Speaker 2: Travalta introducing the Frozen Chick at an award show?

722
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 5: Anyway?

723
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:47,879
Speaker 2: Chris Collinsworth good dude at calling games. Sometimes, as Chase

724
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 2: hits the turf hard and lands on his back, Collinsworth,

725
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: a former wide receiver, says I could tell you he's

726
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 2: gonna crawl out of bed tomorrow after that because he

727
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 2: had done it himself. Jamar Chase said on Monday, I'm

728
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 2: a lit that's the best thing right now, which sounds

729
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 2: like a guy that literally probably crawled out of bed

730
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 2: with sore ribs and back and uh it's it looks

731
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: like we're not sure if we're even gonna see him

732
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 2: on the field for Week ten's game against the Texans.

733
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 4: It's a fun little game too. I know it's a

734
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 4: little early to get into our previous Bill Stroud, little

735
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow, you know, former Ohio State legends. Texans have

736
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 4: made this season more interesting, but yeah, we need we

737
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 4: need to bar Chase out there for that game to.

738
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 2: The Browns moved Jedrick Wills to injured reserve, a tough

739
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 2: one out six weeks with a knee injury. Mark, what

740
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,240
Speaker 2: does that do to their offensive line?

741
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 6: He's been up and down for a couple of seasons

742
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 6: in a row. They'll plug in James Hudson, who you

743
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 6: know played a little bit obviously this past weekend, has

744
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 6: played before for them. I guess for me, I feel

745
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 6: like the Browns are one of the few teams that

746
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 6: have an O line co coach and Bill Callahan that

747
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 6: can kind of like could probably take the three of

748
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 6: us and have us be somewhat serviceable for a couple

749
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 6: of snaps if need be.

750
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 3: So.

751
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 6: I it's they've they you know, they lost their right tackle,

752
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 6: They've now lost their left tackle. That would do most lines.

753
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 6: Cleveland has a little bit more help because of the

754
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 6: special sauce with their coaching. But you're getting close to

755
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 6: the edge.

756
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 4: Were you watching this game tonight, because you've been very

757
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 4: pro Jets on the podcast, Mark, was.

758
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 6: I watching it? I mean like, no, no, no.

759
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 4: I've gotten to what I'm asking When you were watching.

760
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 5: It got to the punchline yet, fair point?

761
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 4: Were you thinking Okay, I've been saying the Jets have

762
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 4: some magic to them. I've been rooting on, rooting them on,

763
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 4: I want them to win. Or were you thinking, well,

764
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 4: if the Jets lose, I go to sleep tonight and

765
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 4: the Browns still own that seventh spot, the entire AFC

766
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 4: North is locked into the playoff seating as of week nine.

767
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 6: I wasn't projecting out that are Yeah, I was just

768
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 6: attempting to get through this viewing. I think most fans

769
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 6: were because just to your point, you know, like the

770
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 6: game that we want rewatched today Cowboys Eagles felt like

771
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 6: kind of football royalty in terms of drama and what

772
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,720
Speaker 6: you'd want out of a Week nine game in the NFL,

773
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 6: and this was the polar opposite. Can be.

774
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 4: Sorry to bring I'm asking.

775
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 6: I'm answering the question, Hey, what about that Darius Davis.

776
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,319
Speaker 4: Nice little ball player, you know.

777
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 6: But no, I wasn't dreaming of playoffs standings at this

778
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 6: point for anyone, and nor do I. And I'm I

779
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 6: think you're attaching me to something that I don't totally.

780
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 5: Need to be being a stinky Davis.

781
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 2: Yes, Finally, in the news, sometimes Greg throws things in

782
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 2: the news and they make sense in his head. But

783
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 2: I have no question to it. You Jeeves Press Colon.

784
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 2: We want to be the world's team. I don't know

785
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 2: who that is, what that is. Oh, that's the president

786
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 2: of the Kansas City Chiefs.

787
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 5: I think so.

788
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 4: I just thought you were I would. I just thought

789
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 4: it was very grande. No, it wasn't Clark Hunt, though

790
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 4: it was. It was like some executive like a no.

791
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 5: I mean, if it's not Clark Hunt, what are we doing?

792
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 4: He says, Because you know they're doing the Germany game.

793
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 4: I guess they owned the NFL rights or they're one

794
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 4: of the teams that owns the rights to promote themselves

795
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 4: in Germany. You have to like negotiate and pay for

796
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 4: all this. I think the Jets are one of the

797
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 4: teams for instance in the UK. Am I right about

798
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 4: that they're there? Yeah, and so maybe they'll be giving

799
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 4: up a home game every other year to go play overseas.

800
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 4: And he said, we we don't want to be America's team,

801
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 4: we want to be the world's team. That they that

802
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 4: they wouldn't be doing a service to their organization if

803
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 4: they didn't take advantage of this moment in time, with

804
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 4: the success and with the players. These were his words

805
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 4: to not try to become the world's team. And I

806
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 4: just thought that might be a fun little piece of

807
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 4: meat to end this podcast on this grandiosity from the

808
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 4: Chiefs to be the world's team.

809
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 2: This is how like company presidents get the four hundred

810
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 2: thousand dollars bonus and the Jaguars like they just think

811
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 2: up these things and it comes with some type of

812
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 2: one hundred page report that they have an underling work

813
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 2: up that features a bunch of bar graphs and arrows

814
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 2: pointing up and explanations how we can make this thing

815
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 2: that we have into something much much more lucrative. And

816
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 2: I'm sure this is one of the data points and

817
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 2: bullet points of that presentation that earned him four hundred

818
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: and seventy seven thousand dollars on top of his salary.

819
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like it's the it's straight, it's direct from

820
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 6: it's a rocket ship from the middle manager playbook. He

821
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 6: executed it well. And you know, I think we've seen

822
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 6: through some of these plans in our own career.

823
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 2: See they and he's not a middle manager, he's a

824
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 2: president apparently, but they have the same, you know playbook.

825
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: It's just when the higher you go up, like the

826
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 2: certain initiatives actually end up, you know, reaching the masses

827
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 2: and and and you know, now we'll.

828
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 5: See if the Chiefs become truly the world's team. Good

829
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 5: luck to me.

830
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 4: Those were his words, And to be clear, it was

831
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,919
Speaker 4: Chief's President Mark Donovan who did admit. It can sound

832
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 4: a little arrogant, but the opportunity exists to become the

833
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 4: world's team. We feel like this is our era.

834
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 2: Well they when you got the quarterback that you do. Yeah,

835
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 2: but why don't we start with America and then see

836
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 2: if we can Conquergall.

837
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 4: Forget Chiefs Kingdom. It's it's Chief's universe because in the country,

838
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 4: I think.

839
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 6: He was quoted at probably from like a German beer

840
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 6: garden where everything felt real right in the moment, you know.

841
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 5: All right, let's let's get uh, let's go out thus

842

844
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 2: about nine years ago.

847
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 9: their most memorable moments here to perform. The Oscar nominated

848
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 9: gorgeously empowering song let It Go from the Oscar winning

849

Speaker 2: And by the way he finally gave it up. By

867
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:22,840
