We checked in with 6 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys in the first hour of the show 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 1: and they still have nine more games left and that's 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: not a good thing with the way they've played yesterday, 9 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: mailing it in against the Washington football team. Andy Dalton 10 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: with a concussion. Don't know what his status is going 11 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: to be. Bears Rams coming up tonight. Dodgers up three 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: two on the Rays. The Steelers the only undefeated team, 13 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: the Jets the only win team. We'll have a poll question. 14 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: We got a stat of the day or two. By 15 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: the way, the Bass Pro shops in Cabella there is 16 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: a new flannel destination for the whole family this fall 17 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: right now. They had their annual flannel Fest in retail 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: stores across North America. Shop their current flannel deals in 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: stores or online. Today we went down there and uh 20 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: dove into the flannel department there. I lost the Dane's 21 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,639 Speaker 1: for a little while. Like I'm I'm like a parent 22 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: where you lose your child when they're in a store 23 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: and they're hiding underneath clothes, and uh, everybody's scattered in 24 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: all different directions and picking up their flannel shirts there 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: at Gabella's. Yes, flannel Heaven. You just walk through the flannel. 26 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: There's plaid everywhere. I was gonna move in it. You 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: you you've got a sickness towards flannel. It's well, it's 28 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 1: so cozy. It's like wearing a blanket socially. I mean, 29 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: like if I could put a pillow behind my head 30 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: and go to work, I would. I can't, Yeah, but 31 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: you could put a flannel on. We'll get phone calls 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: coming up eight seven seven three d P Show email 33 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: address VP of Dan Patrick dot com phone number eight 34 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: seven seven three d P Show, and we say good 35 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: morning to our radio affiliates in Peacock. You can download 36 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: the app and you can watch all three hours for free. 37 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it's not fair to compare Tom Brady's Bucks to 38 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's Patriots, but that doesn't stop us from doing it. 39 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: That was certainly the storyline coming into the season, or 40 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: one of the storylines, and on Sunday, the difference between 41 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: the two teams was pretty noticeable. Buccaneers beat the Raiders 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: forty five to twenty. They're now five and two. Patriots 43 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: got blown out at home by the Niners. They're four now. 44 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: There's a little bit more to it. It's not just 45 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: Brady now with the Bucks and Cam Newton in there 46 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: in Tom's place with the Patriots, everybody's got injuries. You 47 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: saw Cam get benched there. It feels like the Buccaneers 48 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: are figuring things out. It's already a really good defense. 49 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: It really comes down to taking care of the football. 50 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: And if Brady is able to take care of the football, 51 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: that defense can be elite. And they just added Antonio Brown. 52 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's good or not, but they 53 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: have weapons. We wanted to see what Tom could do 54 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: with weapons. He gets rid of the ball so quickly. 55 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: That's not a great offensive line, but he's getting rid 56 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: of the ball so quickly you can't get to him. 57 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: You know, Brady was joining an already pretty good offense 58 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: and Jameis Winston threw for over five thousand yards with 59 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: this team. Brady's biggest thing is just don't throw interceptions 60 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: like Winston did. But at two and four, it's not 61 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: a lost season. It's not looking good in New England. 62 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: But as far as the Brady versus Belichick, Tom clearly 63 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: in the lead with his team. Yes, Polly, didn't you 64 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: guys think that Gronkowski looked like not back to Gronkowski, 65 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: but he looked like a normal player before, Like the 66 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: first week, it felt like he was laboring to get 67 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: back or if he got hit he would get up 68 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: kind of slow. He just felt like kind of normal ground, 69 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: not superstar ground. Yeah, and I you bring up the 70 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: keyword that's laboring. And felt like when he was running 71 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: he was carrying a piano on his back. He was laboring, 72 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: just trying to, you know, find space in the field. 73 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: And I when they had Oj Howard, I thought, Okay, 74 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: all gron cast to do is stay healthy and come 75 00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: up with a couple of big plays in the playoffs. 76 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: Like that's what I expect out of Gronk because you 77 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: got Cameron Brayton, had Oj Howard, but now got to 78 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: get a little bit more out of Gronk. And I 79 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: think the key will be how healthy is he going 80 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: to be in January. Some of the other games yesterday 81 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: that we're interesting. Cleveland Browns beat the Bengals five touchdown 82 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: passes for Baker Mayfield, Joe Burrow is going to set 83 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: the rookie record. I'm guessing with passing yards and on 84 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: a bad team, he still looks very good. Russell Wilson, 85 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: he now has what twenty two touchdown passes for the season, 86 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: That ties him with Peyton Manning for the most through 87 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: a team's first six games in NFL history. Every other 88 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: player to throw for at least twenty touchdowns through his 89 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: team's first six games won the MVP. Manning did it, 90 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: Tom Brady did it, and Brett Farve did it. And 91 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: right now Russell Wilson, and he has to be great 92 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: every week because that defense is so bad. You know, 93 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: when I watched the Cowboys, I go, well, that's a 94 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: bad defense. Then I watched Seattle and go no, no, no, 95 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: Now that's a bad defense. These are two historical performances 96 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: for all the wrong reasons, with Dallas in Seattle and 97 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,679 Speaker 1: Dallas gives up twenty points in the first half every game. Yeah, Paully, 98 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: remember how we talked about how Russell Wilson has never 99 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: won an MVP. I don't think he's ever gotten a vote. 100 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: In September, he was a shirt thing. MVP last night 101 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: was the opening to move on to another Flavor of 102 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: the Month. Though you know I'm the biggest Russell Wilson fan, 103 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: but three picks on national TV and a loss now 104 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 1: opens the door for someone else to get in the mix. 105 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: And that's how Russell didn't win it all these years. 106 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: He's fantastic over the course of the season, but in 107 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: that TV opening, I think this opened the door for 108 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: Brady a little bit. First two games he had three touchdowns, 109 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: three interceptions. The last five games fifteen touchdowns, one interception, 110 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: and plus there's a story here as well, goes back 111 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: to what I've told you. When people vote, they factor 112 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: in this story. Like it or not. It's not just 113 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: about the stats. Russell is a that's a story because 114 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: he's never even gotten a vote for MVP, and he's 115 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: going to have to be incredible. I don't know if 116 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger will get any consideration here. I don't know 117 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: if the numbers are great, but the team is very 118 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: good and still undefeated, and to go into Tennessee and 119 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: beat that Titans team that says a lot about them. 120 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: They did allow the Titans get back in the game, 121 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: but still undefeated. And I know that I yell at 122 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: Chris Simms or Mike Florio that we talk about the 123 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: MVP after week one or week two, and here I 124 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: am talking about it now after seven weeks. But I 125 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: am curious about this with Tom Brady, with what he's 126 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: doing with his team right now, we know what Russ 127 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: has done. Some of these other players that you can 128 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: factor in there, Aaron Rodgers, we've seen this before. You know, 129 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: this is Ben coming back from an injury that might 130 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: have ended his career. Brady going to a new team, 131 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: doesn't get any training camp, any preseason games, struggles first 132 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: two games, and then has looked, you know, very impressive 133 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: in the last five. Yeahmicklevin. But there was a moment 134 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: in the third quarter where a Twitter said it's over 135 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's when he was throwing those fifty yard Lewis 136 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: Riddick said, just stop the MVP race, give it to 137 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: him and vote for a second, because those passes are incredible, 138 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: those rainmakers he throws, you know, like sixty yards up 139 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: in the air. I feel like he's still a distant 140 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: distant first, I don't think so. The part of the 141 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: interceptions were like punts last night. No, they were, They're 142 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: still interceptions. You can't be saying they're like punts. Well, 143 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: people look at interception numbers and don't actually look at 144 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: the interceptions like they were kind of like, yeah, they 145 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: were bad, but they weren't. Well, if Buddha Baker's scores 146 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: on that touchdown, you know, it's a terrible pick six 147 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: or would have been you know, DK Metcalf, not that 148 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: one tackle, one play is gonna decide on MVP. But 149 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: we might look back on that and say, man, if 150 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: he had scored on a pick six, would we have 151 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: looked at is a bad pass? Buddha Baker made a great, 152 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: great play, but so did DK Metcalf. Yeah, but I 153 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: I you know, sometimes you can peak too soon and 154 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: then people get tired of the story and they're like, 155 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: uh saying, you know, wait, like they want something new, 156 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: and that that's where Brady playing like this. Whether people 157 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: want to vote for Brady or like that story, but 158 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: I do think that he's he's crept back into the picture. Yeah, Polly, 159 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: what if the Arizona Cardinals won the NFC West. They're 160 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: five and two, they've outscored the you know, they won 161 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: three in a row, fresh story, fresh quarterback, likable name 162 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: stats are getting there. Well, that's people were trying to 163 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: find a good bet in Vegas on who would be 164 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: the MVP. And they were looking at Kyler Murray and 165 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: Josh Allen because they were figuring that Mahomes in his 166 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 1: second year, Lamar Jackson in his second year, and then 167 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: maybe we were going to have another quarterback in his 168 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: second year, Kyler Murray. And you know, Kyler looked really 169 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: good last night. He's a really good player. I wondered 170 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: if Russell Wilson is not successful in the NFL because 171 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: he was a former baseball player and you know, six 172 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: feet tall, maybe does Kyler Murray get the same look, 173 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: because you know, it feels like Russell Wilson opened a 174 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: lot of eyes. You know, Drew Brees is a pocket quarterback, 175 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: which is amazing at his size, but it feels like 176 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson opened some eyes. Michael Vick I think opened 177 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: eyes as well. He just wasn't the passer that Russ is. 178 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: I look at the success that Russell Wilson has had 179 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: and what he has probably done with these scouts and 180 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: gms and owners to go, you can have a quarterback 181 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: that's not six feet tall and be successful. Yeah, McLevin. 182 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: They read an interesting stat during the Panther SATs game 183 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: that like sel quarterbacks are former shortstops, and they were 184 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: talking about Tom House and Drew Brees that that shortstop 185 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: is the most easily translation that to throw the farthest 186 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: and they turned their body. So it feels like there's 187 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: like a baseball football connection going on a little bit. 188 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: Maybe that's a stretch, but it's like Kyler Murray's like 189 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: wherever you said he throws like a baseball player. When 190 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: he was in the studio, it's like he's turning two. 191 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: So maybe there's that's the kind of a key. That's 192 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: when I read one of the scouting reports that they 193 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: questioned his arm, and I went, I don't know how 194 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: you could possibly say that when he was there with 195 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: us in Atlanta and he was throwing what twenty yards 196 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: to you man, that had so much get up, It 197 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: was so quick, so much get up on it, And 198 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: I went, how could anybody possibly go I got questions 199 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: or doubts about his arm? It goes back to what 200 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: I've always said with scouts with the quarterback, we always 201 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: they're always looking for the negative part of it, instead 202 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: of what do you do well? Steph Curry can't play defense? 203 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: Does he do other things well? Steve Nash, he can't 204 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: play defense? Does he do other things well? Sometimes when 205 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: Tyler Murray he does things well? He does things great? 206 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: You know, like, oh he's the only five to eleven? Okay, 207 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: what else? Getting what are the positives here? Because you'll 208 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: talk yourself into a draft pick and out of a 209 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: draft pick, and a lot of it has to do 210 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: with I'm just gonna look at what you you know, 211 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: give me the candidate. Like Daniel Jones, Giants probably said, 212 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: you know, he doesn't do anything wrong. Does he do 213 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: anything really well? Yeah? Mitchell Trubisky, he doesn't do anything wrong. 214 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: Does he do anything really well? Yeah? Instead of this 215 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: guy is electric Like Lamar Jackson. Teams talked themselves out 216 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: of Lamar Jackson because they wondered could he be a 217 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: consistent thrower? Well, what Baltimore did is, we're gonna bring 218 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: him in, We're gonna run your offense at Louisville and 219 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: let we're gonna play to your strengths. CAROLINEA did that 220 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: with Cam Newton. They played to his strengths and a 221 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: lot of times teams won't do that, and Kyler Murray, 222 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised that he's successful. I'm surprised that people 223 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: are surprised to he's successful because he's extremely talented, the 224 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: scary talent out there, and just the running ability alone, 225 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: Like that's a guy who could be Tyreek Hill and 226 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: then and then eat your quarterback. Yeah. Boy. I projected 227 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: out Kyler Murray's stats where seven games in he's on 228 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: pace to throw for over four thousand yards, throw for 229 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: thirty touchdowns, and rush for exactly to the number one 230 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: thousand yards. This season, he's the tenth ranked runner in 231 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: the league including running backs. If you want to compare 232 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: this to Mike Vick. The year Mike Vick had a 233 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: thousand yards rushing, he threw for twenty four hundred yards 234 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 1: and twenty touchdowns. Kyler Murray's on the pace for a 235 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: thousand yards rushing, four thousand passing, and thirty touchdowns. If 236 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: those numbers come together and they get they got mixed playoffs. Yes, 237 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: if you put those two together, though yep. Usually though 238 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: it's a number one seeded team where you get that MVP, 239 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: but making the playoffs a wild card if they win 240 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: the division. Then I think you're getting a lot of 241 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: attention from the voters. Yeah, m club. I think Russell 242 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: has an angle too, because his defense is so bad. 243 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: He's gonna have to see like throw all Gamelong every game. 244 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: So if he gets a touchdown record, that would help 245 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: to like records help A couple of phone calls best 246 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: and Worst for the weekend Jeff and Milwaukee. Hi Jeff, 247 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: thanks for holding best and worst. Hey Jeff, Sorry, can 248 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: you hear me? Yes? Yes, Jeff? Sorry, Dan, The best 249 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: and worst is Graham Murtz. Wisconsin has been waiting for 250 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: this quarterback for a while, not just him specifically, but 251 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: when Russell Wilson came, we kind of thought that maybe 252 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: quarterbacks would come to Wisconsin. Great offense, blind good defense, 253 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: running backs, pro style offense, Paul Chris good coach. And 254 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: now he has COVID no kind of a bummer. Yeah, 255 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: and he really looked good. He looked very sharp. Great 256 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: it was Illinois, but he looked very sharp in that game. 257 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: I think he at what wanting completely should maybe Yeah, 258 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: five touchdowns, one complaining completion and he was a big 259 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: time recruit, but I don't know. It's not confirmed that 260 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: he has COVID, but I saw where is he going 261 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: to be an isolation quarantine for three weeks? Is? I 262 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: think I heard that. I'll double check that that that 263 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: there might be a big ten rule that. Oh, Mike, 264 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: it's pretty tough. But let me double check that to 265 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: make sure. Because he's just in like COVID protocol, isn't 266 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: he like he's not. So he had a quick test 267 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: so it was positive and he's waiting the more serious test. Writing, Okay, 268 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: I believe Jonathan in Pennsylvania, Hey, Jonathan, he do best. 269 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: So the worst of the weekend. Worst of the weekend 270 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: is uh, Dallas Cowboys, My Dallas Cowboys. Man, they performed 271 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: the defense is horrible, horrible. Um, I don't know one second. 272 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Yeah, their defense is horrible. I don't know 273 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: mill Jonathan, Jonathan, where are you? Oh I'm in the store. Okay, 274 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm I'm sorry about That's okay, But no, Mike Nolan 275 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: man his teach. I don't know where he's doing his 276 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: defense hard. I'm really have Rob Man, Natalie oh, Christmas 277 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: Rashard from last year and I think they're defense. They're 278 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: pretty good last year, but this is horrible. My best 279 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: is a big tank. Come back my buck, guys. Oh 280 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: Man won a wonderful game. Justice to the phenomenal job, 281 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: but that fought us are the worst. Thank you all right, well, 282 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: thank you. Good luck with your shopping there, Jonathan. Justin 283 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: Fields look great, you know, but I mean you're beating Nebraska. Yeah, club, 284 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: do we have a one two Ryan Leaf Paynton Manning 285 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: thing yet? Can we go there? You know? For the 286 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: draft that is for the fields and lowerds. Well, it 287 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: depends on who has those draft picks, what teams. But 288 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: do I think those are the two top draft picks. Well, 289 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes teams trade up to get a quarter there. Anyway, Yeah, 290 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess. So. I think what you'll see is 291 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: Justin Fields showing that he can run, because it feels 292 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: like that that's the new wave of quarterbacking that you 293 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: come in and you show that you can throw. We've 294 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: seen that with him, but also his ability to run 295 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: or extend to play. That'll probably be what Justin Fields is. 296 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's working on that, but I 297 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: think if that's part of the game plan, that would 298 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: be interesting for Ohio State. I'm watching that game and 299 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: I was like, wait a minute, what's the spread here 300 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: on Ohio State Nebraska? And you know, I'm just curiosity. 301 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking they're going to get to the one yard 302 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: line and then they're not going to cover. And then 303 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a freshman quarterback comes in, he scores. 304 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: Then Ryan Day, the head coach at Ohio State, says, hey, 305 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: you know, that was my bad. We didn't have our 306 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: take a knee team in there, like, oh my gosh, 307 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: we can't take a knee without our take a knee 308 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: team in there, and they covered. I don't know if 309 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: Ryan Day knew the spread. Probably, you know, Ohio State 310 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: fans were hoping that he would cover, but oh, we 311 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: didn't have our take a knee team. Ya does the 312 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: Syracuse coming within thirty points if Clemson count as the 313 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: shock of the year, that was? That was surprising. Todd 314 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: was actually talking some trash on our text chat a 315 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: little bit. It was like six point game at one point, 316 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,239 Speaker 1: it was like twenty one. He was six zero at 317 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: that point when it was a six point game. Gave 318 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: him a little scare early and then just came apart immediately. 319 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: If you test positive in the Big Ten Big Ten Protocol, 320 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: at least twenty one days, at least twenty one days, 321 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: so he'll miss Nebraska perdue and at Michigan. Yeah, point yeah. 322 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: You could return to practice after fourteen days of testing cleanly, 323 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: but not the competition, so that would be three weeks. Yes, 324 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,919 Speaker 1: did you see where the reporter was asking about the 325 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: Clemson's lack of energy in the game, and Trevor Lawrence 326 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: had said that in a subsequent press conference, and Dabbo 327 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: Sweeney got all you know, sensitive on.

You know, not everybody. You know, 330 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: these reporters are reporters. You know they got to ask questions. 331 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: And Trevor Lawrence, your own quarterback, question the energy level 332 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: of your team, and Dabbo got all sensitive here. Easy there, 333 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: Dabbo in the wrong room? Why didn't we win the Oh, Dabbo, 334 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: don't take yourself so seriously? Am I in the wrong room? 335 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: I thought we won the games? Anybody ask me some 336 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: positive questions here? Yes, I have the exact opposite problem. 337 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: When he's a Jets coach next year. Now, he's not 338 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: going anywhere if he has a hard time handling these questions. 339 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: Oh my god, you put him in New York. Now 340 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: that that wouldn't be good. Wait, are you guys gonna 341 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: ask me anything nice? We did win the game? Yeah, 342 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: your own quarterback is the one who said that you 343 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: guys lacked energy.

Well, what's this going to mean for the Browns? 368 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: Chris Well, I mean that's a big blow for their 369 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 1: football team. There's no doubt about that, you know, Odell 370 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: Beckham Junior, despite you know lack of you know, big 371 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: stats or like a consistent you know, snitch in the offense, 372 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: he does have more value to an offense than the stats, 373 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: right Dan. I mean that's the big thing. He's going 374 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: to open up other receivers. He helps the run game 375 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: because he puts defenses in the dilemma. Do you want 376 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: to play one on one against Odell Beckham Junior? Do 377 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: you want to put the safety over the top. Oh, 378 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: the safety's over the top, then we can run the ball. 379 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: So it will hurt them. He's a playmaker that way. 380 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: But they do have some other weapons, a good run 381 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: game to where I don't look at it and go, oh, 382 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: they're just they're done. It's over now, not like that. 383 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure how good they were with Odell Beckham, 384 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: because they get the Bengals twice, they beat the Cowboys, 385 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: they beat the Washington football team, so they got blown 386 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: out in their two losses. I don't know how good 387 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: they are. Yeah, no, I think that's very fair. I 388 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: think it's a defense that has a really good front four, 389 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: but it's kind of average across the board everywhere else. Offensively, 390 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, Baker Mayfield has been very inconsistent all year. 391 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: He was awesome yesterday, I mean, he really was. But 392 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: you know, the drop back pass game is the last 393 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: part of what I need to see out of Cleveland too, 394 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: because when they don't run the ball, they look like 395 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: they struggle when they are just asked to drop back 396 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: and throw the ball forty forty five times a game. 397 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: And that's probably the next thing we got to see 398 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: from them for when those teams do shut down the 399 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: great run Cleveland attack. What would you do if you're 400 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones, Well, I'd still let this ride out right now, 401 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: as far as like if you're saying, do you make 402 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: any rash decisions firing things like that? No, Now, it's 403 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: a very tough circumstance they've been put in. I mean, 404 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: no doubt Newton new coaches. They obviously may had an 405 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: issue with Mike Nolan. He's a three to four base guy. 406 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: And you got all these guys from the old regime, 407 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: the Seattle scheme four three shoot the gap, So there's 408 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: a true disconnect there where the players don't match the scheme. 409 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: And then you know, obviously offensively, you know, for all 410 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: those people out there who were kind of like, oh, 411 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, they should just pay Andy dalton Is seven 412 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,959 Speaker 1: million dollars and go with him. We don't need Dak Pressley. 413 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: Well you're seeing he's a little bit better than maybe 414 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: we all wanted to give him credit for it. They're 415 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: a mess right now. They stink. But I think he's 416 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: got to ride it out a little bit and let 417 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy try to figure this out and make a 418 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: mark with the team before he does anything rash. Mike 419 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: McCarthy called out his team after the loss, saying that 420 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: somebody should have gotten John Bostick's face after the cheap 421 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: shot on Andy Dalton, Like, how does that work with 422 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: sticking up for a player, sticking up your quarterback? And 423 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: should the coach be calling out your team publicly like that? Well, 424 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: I think he'd like to see a little more fire 425 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: and fight from them. I mean, just in general to 426 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: where that game was at at that point anyways. I 427 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: mean it was like they were kind of content, like, oh, 428 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: Washington's running us over a big deal. Okay, that's great. 429 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean there is just a lack of intensity overall 430 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboy football team. It is a fine line, Dan, 431 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a good question because you're always beat 432 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: into your head in the meetings all week. Don't do 433 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: anything stupid, don't get us personal fouls, don't put us 434 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: in a bad position. I think if it's the normal 435 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: Cowboys starting offensive line, it's Zack Martin's out there with 436 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: Tyrone Smith Lyle Collins, they probably take something like that 437 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: more personal. But you've got a mismatch of guys there. 438 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: And I think the other thing that played into it, Dan, 439 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: is it was such an intense, aggressive hit. I think 440 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: a lot of guys were more like, wait, I gotta 441 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: check to see if Andy Dalton's all right before I 442 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: started to go get in this guy's face about the 443 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: cheap shot. And I think that's I think worrisome kind 444 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: of took over in this particular circumstance as well. Have 445 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: you ever been in a bad locker room? I mean no, 446 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: I can't stay that I've been in that bad locker room. No, 447 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: I've been in locker rooms of course that were better 448 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: than others, But I can't remember being in one where 449 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: I was like, man, we're dysfunctional, We're a mess. This 450 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: is really bad. I can't say that I was a 451 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: number one like that. I was just wondering watching the 452 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys that you know, you get paid. You see guys 453 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: get paid, and then they played differently. We see this 454 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: running backs all the time. Yeah, and it is this 455 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: a fair criticism of this entire team that I'mari Cooper's 456 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: He's probably a nice guy and a good receiver. But 457 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: Ze Kellett got paid. Cooper got paid, the offensive line 458 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: got paid. You know, your defensive players get everybody got paid, 459 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: and they play like they got paid, not they want 460 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: to get paid. Yeah, there's a lack of grit with 461 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: their football team. Yes, it can go two ways. It 462 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: can go Wait, you got paid and now, oh let 463 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: me kick my feedback and enjoy the money and the 464 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: stresses out. Or can go I got paid, I've got insurance. 465 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: Now I can lay it on the line. Like Alvin 466 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: Kamara is that guy. I feel like ever since he 467 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: signed that contract, all of a sudden, he's like he's 468 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: breaking ninety seven tackles every play and it's just pedal 469 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: of the metal. But yes, with Dallas, it seems like 470 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: they just think, Hey, at times, we're Dallas. We got 471 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: all these great facilities, we got these cool helmets, We're 472 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: America's team. Look at all these studs we got on 473 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: the roster. If we just show up, we're gonna win 474 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: football games. And that's that's not the case. Salary cap, 475 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: free agency. The way it is this day and age, 476 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: the difference between the worst team and the best team 477 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: in football is not that great, as you know. And yeah, 478 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: they seem to be. They seem to want to annoint 479 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: themselves before they do the dirty work. To your point, 480 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: what's the difference with Tom Brady the last five games 481 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: as opposed to the first two, Well, I think they 482 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: found out the you know, they slowly kind of broke 483 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: him into being more comfortable throwing the ball down the 484 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: field that way. And I think they've just found the 485 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: right balance of Hey, spread it out, Tom Brady, quick passes, Hey, 486 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: two tight ends in the game. We're gonna take some 487 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: shots down the field, and then we can overpower you 488 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: with the run game. Dan, they're the best team in 489 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: the NFC. There they are. I mean, they're the most 490 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: complete team for sure, and they're still going up there. 491 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: I mean, there's really not I've been saying this for 492 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: two weeks. There's really not a weakness with their team. 493 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: Oh lines, good run games, good weapons galore. Brady's awesome 494 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: front seven might be one of the best in football. 495 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: And they got young, shut down cover corners who, yeah, 496 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: have made a few mistakes. But I just would say 497 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: when you look at all those actors, and you look 498 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: at the Packers who have questions on defense and Seattle 499 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: questions on defense, I look at Tampa right now and 500 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: just go watch out because I think they're the cream 501 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: of the crop. Bringing in Antonio Brown good. I think 502 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 1: it's good. I do, because first off, Brady can handle it. 503 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: Brady's got great people's skills, charisma. He obviously made a 504 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: connection with him and I think gets one yet add 505 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: to the weapon ring. We know it's here to be had. 506 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: They could win the super Bowl this year, So more 507 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 1: matchup nightmares across the board. And I think the other 508 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: thing with COVID nineteen, Mike Evans being banged up, Chris 509 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: Godwin being banged up, they're probably looking at it like, man, 510 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: we don't want to lose one of these guys for 511 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: six or seven weeks and really have to struggle through 512 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: our offensive ways here. He gives them insurance as far 513 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,479 Speaker 1: as that's concerned as well. What has changed with the Patriots, Well, 514 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: you know, COVID nineteen screwed them badly. I mean Cam's 515 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: never been back in them since he missed that time. 516 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: You know, the one thing we saw they played that 517 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs football game, and that was there to 518 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 1: be had. They could have won it. They can run 519 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: the football and control the clock, but they kind of 520 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: have to play that style of football game. You know, 521 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: last week it was rusty against Denver. They made some 522 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: mistakes all that. Denver did a good job. Whatever. We 523 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: know they didn't practice yesterday was a pure bad matchup 524 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 1: button whooping. One thing to watch out for the Patriots, Dan, 525 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: they don't have any defensive tackles. They don't have any 526 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: size on their front, so you can run the ball 527 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: on them if you have a good running attack. And 528 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: that's what Shanahan did yesterday and they took away that 529 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: running attack from the Patriots. You kind of have to 530 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: play that style. They want to control the clock, get 531 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: out in front of you. Then Bill can do all 532 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 1: crazy things on defense, and their secondary can match up 533 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: with people, and that's their position of power, and they 534 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: haven't been able to do that the last two weeks. 535 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: If I could give you Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow, Kyler 536 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: Murray for the ten years, oh man, that is a 537 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: really good one, because it's three. I mean, I got 538 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: man crushes and all three of them, who I don't 539 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: know where i'd go here, I think right now, okay, 540 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: I'd probably still go Kyler Murray. I would go Kyler 541 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: Murray as if we sit here right now, just because 542 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: I probably have seen more evidence of him. Justin Herbert though, 543 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: and Joe Burrow are not far behind. I mean they're 544 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: both as I know why you're asking me because you're 545 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: you watch on Sundays and your jaw drops four or 546 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: five times a game watching Herbert and Burrow because you 547 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: just go, Damn, what a throw, what a decision, what 548 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: a play? I mean, really, they're budding superstars. I'm excited 549 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: about both. But I'll give Murray the edge right now. 550 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: If Murray throws for four thousand yards, they make the playoffs. 551 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: He rushes for a thousand, can he? I know that? 552 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: You know we've we've made Russell Wilson the clear favorite 553 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: for MVP. I think Brady's back in the picture and 554 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: should be. And I don't know if Kyler Murray can 555 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: get in there if he has a UNI season, what 556 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: do you think? I think he certainly can make some 557 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: people think about it as they go to the ballot 558 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: box there for MVP voting, because you know, the thing 559 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: is too like Russell. You know, it's just everything they 560 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: do is formulated around them, and their skill set and 561 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: the way they play and the pressure they apply on 562 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: defense is all about what the quarterback does that way 563 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: to where I hear you if they get in the 564 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: playoffs at a ten and six and he has some 565 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: crazy stat line like that, and as you see last night. 566 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: It's not always like surgical offensive just we pick you apart. 567 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: A lot of it is like, oh wait, nobody's open, 568 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: and then there he goes making seven guys miss because 569 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: he's got three rockets up his butt. I mean, he's 570 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: unbelievable that way. Man. Yeah, he's got three of them. 571 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: He can fly, not literally, not literally, no figuratively. Yes, 572 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: explain this to me with to a tongue of ilo 573 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: coming in as a left hander. Offenses are geared towards 574 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: a right handed quarterback normally. How does the change with 575 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: a left handed quarterback coming in the biggest thing, more 576 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: than anything, is like bootlegs and play actions and maybe 577 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: setting up your offense that way right to where hey, 578 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: more times than not, you want your lefty on a 579 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: bootleg to be end up rolling to his left. Not 580 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: all the time, but let's say eight out of ten times, 581 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: and that's where the juggling match goes on. For the 582 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator to think about protections and just little nuances 583 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: like that with like the play action pass. Oh let 584 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: me call it this way so he doesn't have to 585 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: turn his back completely to the coverage and not see it. 586 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: They'll get used to it. They'll probably be a few 587 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: minute moments or Shan Geley will go, oh, damn it, 588 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: damn lefty, blah blah blah. He'll figure it out. But 589 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: I've been through it. They'll figure it out. What's it 590 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: like when you get replaced? It's devastating. I mean it's 591 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: it's it's it's like losing a loved one. I don't 592 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: know any other way to say. How are you told? 593 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: Like Ryan Fitzpatrick, he's finding out how we're finding out 594 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: with social media and this story. His family found out 595 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: that way, right, Like does the coach head coach or 596 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator? Usually? Yeah, usually it would be like an 597 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator or a head coach. It's gonna either work 598 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: like this. Either all of a sudden, somebody's gonna come 599 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: down and say, hey, the head coach wants to see 600 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: you and you got to go up there, or you're 601 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: gonna have an offensive meeting or something like that, and 602 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator's gonna give you a little inkling that 603 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: they might make a move or something, and hey, the 604 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: head coach wants to talk to you, And that's usually 605 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: how the news is broke to you. But yeah, that 606 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: was a shocker. But I also understand it. You know, 607 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: they were in danger of kind of setting it up 608 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: a bad way for Tuah. They got a schedule that 609 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: sets up Dan where they can be sitting here at 610 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: eight and four in a few weeks and then you go, wha, 611 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: Are we gonna pull Fitzpatrick then? Or are we gonna 612 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: put Tua in and then we lose a bunch of 613 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: games and everybody blames him going to the offseason. Or 614 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: do we go to the playoffs at ten and six 615 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: with Fitzpatrick and then start the next year with two 616 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: and we start out oh and two and everybody's like, oh, 617 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: why did we leave Fitzpatrick? So I think they realize 618 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: that the team is set up for TWA to succeed 619 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: and that they were in danger of kind of setting 620 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: up a narrative that they didn't want to deal with. 621 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: Is Sam Darnald the quarterback for the Jets next year? 622 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: I would say no right now, you know, And that's 623 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: not because of Sam Darnald. You know, I feel bad 624 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: for Sam Darnold. You could still win football games and 625 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: be successful with him at quarterback. You know, this goes 626 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: back to the conversation you and I have a lie. 627 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: It's it's more than the quarterback. The quarterback, the quarterback, 628 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: the quarterback, you know, build a damn team around somebody. 629 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: I don't care if you put Aaron Rodgers or Oh 630 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: I think it'd be a blessing in disguise. Chris if Sam, 631 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: If I'm Sam Darnold, Yeah, right, and I get to 632 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 1: go to Pittsburgh and back up Ben Roethlisberg for a 633 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: year or two, or maybe Chicago. I think Sam can play, 634 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: but it might be he'll do better getting out of 635 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: New York. I think I don't disagree, you know, And 636 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: there's gonna be plenty of spots. I mean, who you know, 637 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: who knows what New Orleans open next year? Indiana Hill 638 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: down there, Well, I don't know. I'm just throwing out, 639 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 1: you know, spots that New England might be open. New 640 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: England might be open. I think there's plenty of places 641 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 1: that we could see opportunities like this. But I think 642 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: ultimately Trevor Lawrence is that type of player coming out 643 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,439 Speaker 1: of Clemson where it's gonna be hard to turn him 644 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: down if you have the number one pick in the draft, 645 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 1: between the media, how good he is, the public pressure, 646 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: all that you don't want to see him go somewhere 647 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: else and light it up and go, oh, we passed 648 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: up on him. No, that ain't happening now. Like, if 649 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: you're the Jets and you've got Sam Darnold and Trevor Lawrence, 650 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: is there at the number one pick, you're taking Trevor Lawrence, right, 651 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: I am yeah, I can't. I can't pass up Trevor Lawrence. Yeah. 652 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't think you could do that. And plus they're 653 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: not you know, they're not deep enough in it, and 654 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 1: like don't have anything set up for Sam Darnald anyway, 655 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: so he might have just well started all over and 656 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: figure it out as we go. With Trevor Lawrence. Yeah, 657 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: but if you're Trevor Lawrence, do you want to go 658 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: to the Jets? Well, that's that's a big question. I mean, really, 659 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: they're both New York teams. Are probably in the conversation 660 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 1: for Trevor Lawrence up here, you know, And again I 661 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: don't agree with it. I think Daniel Jones and Sam 662 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: Donald you can win games with you just they know 663 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 1: everybody needs some help a little bit. If the Jets 664 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: and Giants merged, right, would they be a playoff team? Um? 665 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think they would be I don't. 666 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm not you know, it's you're you're catching me off guard. 667 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: But I just think about this, I go secondary. Okay, 668 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: we got Bradberry for the Giants, but damn we got 669 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: a whole lot of average after that. But if you 670 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 1: get to play in the NFC East, well, well then 671 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: maybe you're a playoff team oloff. Okay, yes, there's that 672 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: caveat for sure. Thank you, Chris. Good to talk to you.

Okay, it's kind of off 687 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: of JJ Watt played Green Bay this weekend and pretty 688 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: much anybody who has an affiliation for Wisconsin green Bay sad. 689 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: Please let him leak go home with the Packers after 690 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: the game. Who is a player that should be trading 691 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: JJ Watt, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Julio Jones, Slash Matt Ryan, Michael 692 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 1: Thomas on the Saints or maybe Sam Darnold now trade 693 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,800 Speaker 1: him now instead of waiting for the offseason trade deadline? 694 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 1: Is I believe next Monday. I don't know what you 695 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 1: want to get for these players, and I would say 696 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: none of those players should be traded or will be traded. Okay, 697 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: you don't think the Atlanta pulls the trigger on no? No, no? 698 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: I think who are no somebody I spoke to on 699 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: Sunday when you know, Mike Florio put it out there 700 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 1: that he was hearing maybe Michael Thomas is going to 701 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: be traded, and I checked with a source and said, 702 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,919 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas isn't going to be traded. And then Sean 703 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: Payton came out and said the only place he's going 704 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: to be traded is in your fantasy league. And then 705 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: Julio Jones and Matt Ryan. You know, from what I'm told, 706 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: they're not going to be traded. And you know, there's 707 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: just these salary cap implications are really big. But I 708 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: don't see JJ Watt being traded. What's gonna happen to 709 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: JJ Watt though? Is he just going to play out 710 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: the string here and I'm gonna guess this is his 711 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: last year there? It feels like it, Yeah, Paul, Well, 712 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: then if it's his last year, if you could get 713 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: a fourth round pick to Seattle, which has no defense, 714 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: when you give that a shot. A few were at 715 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans kicked the tires. I know it's expensive, 716 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: it's all money. Yeah, I don't know how this works 717 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 1: with the salary cap and what you know, like dead 718 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,399 Speaker 1: cap money and all of that stuff here, But I mean, 719 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: Houston has got to get out from underneath this, and 720 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna waste DeShawn Watson said it from the first 721 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: time he was playing that first season, You're gonna waste 722 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: these good years with Deshaun Watson. Yeah, mclub, isn't there 723 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: some symbolism with JJ two. He's the greatest player in 724 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 1: franchise history, just a ceremoniously dump him at the trade 725 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: deadline feels yeah, I don't. I don't see that fact. Yeah, point, 726 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: that's the opposite of the emotion you should have. The 727 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: Patriots have zero motion in the past two decades, ty 728 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: law of Richard Seymour. They got rid of all those 729 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: guys before you're paying them to be ceremonial. Yeah, but 730 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 1: there's the Texans. Aren't the Patriots, right, they don't, you know, 731 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 1: they don't do those things. That's why they're the Texans 732 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 1: in the Patriots or the Patriots. Travis in Ohio, Hey Travis, 733 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: Best and worst of the weekend? Hey, DP, how we 734 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: do it? I got the best worse than observation? Okay, 735 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: go brownies. First of all, it's a little more somber 736 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: after hearing OBJ news Worst of the weekend obviously, as 737 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: OBJ tarn Maciel that's terrible. Guy's a great player, he's 738 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: a football god. I mean, it's used to losing. Best 739 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 1: of the weekend was the younger guys stepping up people's 740 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: jones with that Santonio Holmes esque catch to win the 741 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:26,760 Speaker 1: game was awesome. And now my observation after Odell Beckham 742 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: went out of the game Baker Mayfield returned to his 743 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: rookie form and that offense jelled unlike it has jelled 744 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: since Odell Beckham has been There is there any chance 745 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 1: that maybe he was stopping Baker Mayfield from progressing and 746 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: going to multiple reads and well, I don't know. The 747 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: guy just looked a lot better. Yeah, and thanks for 748 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: the phone called Travis. I said that last year that 749 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: I thought Baker was trying to acquiesce to Odell Beckham Junior, 750 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: try to satisfy and keep him happy, and it felt 751 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: like he was going out of his w But I 752 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: still think Jarvis Landry is their best receiver. But once again, 753 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,919 Speaker 1: if you're just joining us, Odell Beckham Junior is out 754 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: torn acl out for the season, but Baker has to 755 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: be great. They're at least very good for this team. 756 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: But they're a playoff caliber team in my opinion. Yeah, McLean. 757 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: How about that division? Though, Man, it's pick out the Bengals. 758 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: Those two teams have to play. I know. That's why 759 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: I wondered, could you get three teams out of that 760 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: that conference? Can you get three out of the NFC West? 761 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: Like there's a couple of these divisions that are really, 762 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:43,879 Speaker 1: really challenging uh Ted and Tampa Hey, Ted, Hey, how's 763 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 1: it going good? How's the offensive line treating you? If 764 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 1: we just replace that left tackle, they'd be okay. Two 765 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: weeks ago, you remember the Packers rusher came in, I 766 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,760 Speaker 1: ran right over Donovan Smith shoved his hand right into 767 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: Brady's helmet and came within one inch of taking Brady's 768 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: left eye out. Matter of fact, Brady still has a 769 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: scar under his left eye, so we came within one 770 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: inch of losing Brady for the season due to our 771 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: left tackle. But the worst and best the weekend. Worst 772 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: the weekend was Manuel Marcot being thrown out trying to 773 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:26,919 Speaker 1: steal home last night.

This lady in the press pool kept 780 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: seeing Dan through her mask. She asked the President about 781 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: three times these questions, but he couldn't hear it.
