Speaker 1: York City and as Tuesday, November sixteenth, my name is Rachel,

Speaker 1: but not alongside peace shregs KB and he is a

5
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: former Seattle Seahawk, Texas Longhorn and green Beret in the

6
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: US Army. Nate Boyer, what's going on, fellas? How are

7
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: you feeling? How are we doing? We're doing good. Yeah,

8
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 1: we're doing good. Yeah, it was a good weekend. Okay, yeah,

9
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: we had a good NFL. Actually we got a good

10
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: Monday night last night. It was the crazy let's talk

11
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: about it for the leave block, not to the leave block.

12
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: All right, So guys, the Rams are seven and three.

13
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 1: They've lost two in a row. It's been bad losses.

14
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: Let's hear from Seawavey after the ramp second lost. Let's

15
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: safe he's mad, or if maybe he puts a positive

16
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: on it. That choose to believe that these last couple

17
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: of weeks are not who we are. I refuse to

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: believe that, even though you know what, you're only as

19
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: good as your last game. These last two weeks have

20
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: certainly been humbling We're gonna figure this thing out and

21
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna come back freaking swinging. I promise you that.

22
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: All right, Uh, these last seven games of the regular season.

23
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,559
Speaker 1: Who Rams have their byeway coming up, but apparently they're

24
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: coming back frank and swinging. How concerning is last night's

25
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: lost for the Rams? I don't think it's a concerning Okay,

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: just looking at what's it's happening across the board in

27
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: the league. All Right, every good team is going through this,

28
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: you know at some point, and they got to buy

29
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: a week if you told them before the season, all right,

30
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: those first ten games, we're gonna finish seven and three.

31
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: You know, they're gonna take that every day. And of

32
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: course you're at seven and one, you don't want to

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: finish seven and three going into the bye week. But

34
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: at the same time, like you look at where you're at,

35
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: you move forward. I think he shows zero panic in

36
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: that interview, so and it's not it's not like he

37
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: knows something that we don't know. But yeah, I'm kind

38
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: of in the same boat. Same with the Bucks, you know,

39
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: they I feel that same gay. Yeah, I just like

40
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: it's still early. We still have seven or eight more games,

41
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: depending on where you're at in your schedule. Um, yeah,

42
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: I just I think, no, no cause for concern, Ny,

43
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: You're new to the show. You're not doing the TV

44
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: things it's supposed to ring the alarm on any time

45
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: a team, Like when the Cowboys lost to the Broncos

46
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: last week, I came on. It was like, I think

47
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: that we've saw the real cow and then I get yeah, yeah,

48
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 1: but I don't want to get got I know you

49
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: know what I mean, what do you mean? I do think.

50
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: I do think there is a little reason for concern

51
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: with the Ramzo because it's now two weeks in a

52
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: row of Stafford throwing bad interceptions. And that's what gives

53
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: me because they'll hang with anybody. But you can't give

54
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 1: the ball away and say what you want about the

55
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: Jared Golf era. They would not put the game on

56
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: Jared Golf's arm. They'd be like, we're gonna win it

57
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: with our run game. Our defense will carry the way. Golf,

58
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: just don't kill us. Stafford killed him the last two weeks. Now,

59
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: he's the better quarterback than Jared Golf. I have no

60
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 1: doubt Stafford knows that he had two bad games. But

61
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: these interceptions they can't continue or they won't be winning

62
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 1: these games. Interceptions like this, to start a game, you

63
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: put yourself in a fourteen point hole, You're not going

64
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: to win against the forty nine ers in their building

65
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: if they do that the way they run the ball.

66
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: So two weeks in a row, I mean this is

67
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: last week. This stuff is a little concerning because there

68
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: isn't this great track record of yes, but you know,

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: Stafford does this and then always in the end finds

70
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: a way and they always pulls it out at the end.

71
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: No Stafford at the Lions, they didn't just pull it

72
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: out at the end. So it's a really good time

73
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 1: for a buy. It's a really good fork in the road.

74
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, la Rams, what do you want to be

75
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: those interceptions? Those are not going to be acceptable come

76
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: January and maybe February, which is what their goal is.

77
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: The honeymoon phase is worn off and now they got

78
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: to go to relationship therapy. That's a good analogy. And like,

79
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: I don't know why. At some point we just decided

80
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: the Rams were going to the super Bowl. It was decided,

81
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: and like Peter, you're on the right track. We don't

82
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: go far enough, Like everything's the lion's fault with Stafford.

83
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: That's the reason doesn't have five super Bowls. And it's

84
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: not a first boat to baby. Just ask everybody. Stafford

85
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: is unimpeachable, the perfect talent, the perfect team, it's perfect everything.

86
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: Let's pray small time right now. I don't know, hasn't

87
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: been on a lot of big games. And here's the problem.

88
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: So last week they lose the Titans and McVeigh comes

89
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: out and definances, is not who we are. Refused to believe.

90
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: This is who not who we are, is not not us. Okay,

91
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: you come out again and get stamped. This is not

92
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: who yes it is. And teams take on the identity

93
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: of their city. So do the Rams. The Rams are

94
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: very famous and soft. They are a tinseltown special, a

95
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: lot of celebrities, a lot of headlines. But okay, well listen,

96
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: you got a Green beret at home, all right. I

97
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: don't know if anybody on the Rams can have that

98
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: kind of credibility. Okay, good players, don't get me wrong.

99
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald's been through the battles. It's fine. This is

100
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: a soft team right now. Wow, And they're they got

101
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: a lot of famous people and there's lots of glitter

102
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: and lots of Twitter, glitter and Twitter. That should be

103
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: the slogan of their team, glitter and Twitter. I just

104
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: don't see any hitters. How about that? That's the slogan

105
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: right now? So we gave you the super Bowl and uh,

106
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: I don't that team out there hasn't beating anybody, and

107
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: that quarterback out there has never beaten anybody. So very negative,

108
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: very very down on the guys right now. But like Sean,

109
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: I love you. Like, what else are we supposed to say?

110
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: Because you know what we can't say? This isn't us,

111
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: Yes it is Wow. I love that. Uh. You know

112
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: what I was reminded of last night. You know, there's

113
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: so much hype about OBJ going and everyone's kind of

114
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: looking at him. Is he? You know, hate to say it,

115
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: like the cancer on the sideline. There's more than one

116
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: Obj on this sideline. What do you what do you mean?

117
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: And it's Jalen Ramsey. We saw the little temper tantrum

118
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: that happened last night, and Nate, I want to ask

119
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: you this not implying that you've had some big personalities

120
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: on your teams in your career, but you know, it's

121
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: one thing to have one guy do things like this,

122
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: and then if you have two guys, maybe two losses

123
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: strung together back to back is not that big of

124
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: a deal. But when you have guys like this in

125
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: the locker room, it must make a bigger impact to

126
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: the guys that they're around, like this, this sucks to see.

127
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: You know what, your your your core guys haven't got

128
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: to squash this. Your core leaders, I should say, in

129
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: the locker room. You know, the the Andrew Whitworth's and

130
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: you know, the guys that everyone looks up to, they've

131
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: been around. You've got to have those conversations. They're tough

132
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: conversations to have. I mean, you know, I spent five

133
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: minutes in the league, but it was with the Seahawks,

134
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: and it was with the Seahawks when they were at

135
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: their peak, and they had all the personalities from Marshawn

136
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: to Richard Sherman to everybody, and you know what, like

137
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: there are people get hot, people, people lose their temper,

138
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: people freak out, and cameras are always on you, and

139
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: like those things happen. But at the same time, there

140
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: was always a good balance of like the guys in

141
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: the locker room who squashed the beef, you know what

142
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: I mean. And sometimes it's like you gotta duke it out,

143
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: you gotta, you gotta, you gotta do what you need

144
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: to do to to to quell all that drama. But

145
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: uh yeah, you just you need those guys to be like,

146
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: look look at where we're at. We're okay, We're fine. Like, yes,

147
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: it's not going great right now, but like we gotta

148
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: we gotta bounce bad. Do you know who that guy

149
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: has been for them for many many years? Whitworth's great obviously,

150
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Robert Woods is that guy Anywhere's the sea on the

151
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: Jersey And there's a reason that he's the captain. And

152
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: I think on Friday Night when he goes down with

153
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: the injury, people are like, yeah, okay, but like look

154
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: at Cup's numbers and I just got Odell, But like,

155
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: Robert Woods brings so much more to that team. So

156
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: I think someone's gonna have to step up and be

157
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 1: a leader, especially with all these new guys coming together

158
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: and the Super Team feel like there needs to be

159
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: some sort of chemistry. There needs to be someone to

160
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: be like, hey, super Team, that's great. I've been here

161
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: since day one and we're going to be a different

162
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: squad than what we were last And it's also one

163
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: thing to have those minor freakouts, Like you know, we

164
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: were talking about passion before. That's what we love to

165
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: see in a football but these two have a history

166
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: of being kind of dramatics. And also I think that

167
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: corny throw that we were talking about showed us a

168
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: lot actually of what is already the dynamic in the

169
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: locker room, like why are you throwing it to I

170
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: mean the interception at the beginning, Corney interception that we

171
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: were talking about. Why, why is that happening? Oh me ja.

172
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: I feel like this happened with the Browns. This exact

173
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: same thing happened with the Browns. These quarterbacks, I feel

174
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: like pressure to get to him because he's such a star.

175
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: There's Twinkle and Twitter and whatever where you were talking about.

176
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to be too spicy, but we're in

177
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: the overreaction business. I think that this is going to

178
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: be a difficult rest of the year for them. It

179
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: seemed transparent to me that there was a conversation with

180
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: McVeigh and with Stafford. We're gonna get to Odell ball early.

181
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: Literally the first play they throw it to him on

182
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: an obviously designed played at the ball and then a

183
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: couple of snaps later, Stafford, out of character, just throws

184
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: it as far as he can to the double coverage.

185
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: And the problem is Cooper Cup was amazing last night.

186
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: He had prolific stats as he always does, and they

187
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: got destroyed. So like they need O'Dell. It's not a

188
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: luxury anymore, Like it is an absolute building block, which

189
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if they can win without him because

190
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: of the Woods injury, and not a luxury. And I

191
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: would say after a week of look, the Rams just

192
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: get who they want. Von Miller Odell com there so great.

193
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: I think the rest of the league probably like to

194
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: watch them getting their team. They need this bye week,

195
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, even after two losses. You hate having two

196
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 1: losses and then not going able to not being able

197
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: to get back out there and get a win and

198
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 1: get that out of your system. But they need this

199
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: bye week. Does he pull a Tom Brady after this

200
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: bye week though? So I don't know. Let's go over

201
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: to Tom Hello. Sarah's check in on a couple teams

202
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: in the NFC playoff picture. When will Cam Newtony back

203
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: as the Panthers starting quarterback? And how long will the

204
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: Packers be without their Pro Bowl running back Aaron Jones.

205
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 1: Rachel Panthers coach Matt Rule not committing just yet to

206
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: Cam Newton getting the start on Sunday against Washington. However,

207
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: Rules said that Cam will get the majority of first

208
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: team reps this week in practice. That is a pretty

209
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: strong indication that Cam Newton will be out there against

210
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: his old coach Ron Rivera, his former teammate Taylor Heineke.

211
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: And it makes sense. The Panthers are not paying Cam

212
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: six million dollars with upside for half a season to

213
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: sit on the bench. No, as Rule put it, we

214
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 1: brought Cam here to play just a lot different, playing

215
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: nine snaps as Cam did last week against Arizona and

216
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: playing seventy or so snaps an entire game. They still

217
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: got to ramp him up his knowledge of the offense,

218
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: get him enough reps. If they don't feel like he's

219
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: ready to go, Rule said, it would be PJ. Walker

220
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: getting the start again. Meanwhile, the Packers appeared who have

221
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: dodged the bullet with their star running back Aaron Jones.

222
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: Are Ian Rappaport reported on Monday that Jones suffered just

223
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: a mild mcl sprain expected to miss one to two weeks.

224
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: That means you'll get a lot of aj Dillon this

225
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: week against the Vikings. Next week the Packers host the Rams,

226
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: and then they have their by which appears to be

227
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: coming at a good time. Is Green Bay rests and

228
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 1: heals up for the stretch run Rachel? All right, thanksome style.

229
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: That's a madman right there. I'm Wicks. I'll take it

230
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: in or out. Here's how we're I'm gonna say a statement,

231
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: and then my co hosts are gonna tell me whether

232
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: they agree or disagree. Get it, you're in, you're out.

233
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,719
Speaker 1: Works all right. Here's the Packers one in week ten,

234
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: despite having no jayere Alexander, no Zadarius Smith, no Robert Tounyon,

235
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: and they lost Aaron Jones early on with an mcl sprain.

236
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: The Titans, however, beat the Saints with no Derrick Henry,

237
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: no Julio Jones, and if you look at the conferences,

238
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: both them to the top of their respective ones at

239
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: eight and two. So here's the statement, we in or

240
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: we out. The Packers have overcome more setbacks in their

241
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: path to in two than the Titans. Kyle step up,

242
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: Peter I'm going way in on this. I'm going I'm

243
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: in on the Packers will overcome more. It's been a

244
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: weird thing. We thought the Titans was gonna fall apart,

245
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: right like we just thought that Derek Henry was the

246
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: entire team. They haven't. So either Derek Henry is not

247
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: the demigod we thought, or the Titans have the best

248
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: coaching staff of all time. The Packers DeVante no problem

249
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: when our biggest game of the year. Obviously the injuries

250
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: have mentioned, and also like their quarterback has been annihilated

251
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: and has his reputation and his legacy called into question

252
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: and tarnished in some people's eyes. They got Howard Sternson.

253
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: He should be thrown out of the league. All agree

254
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: with him or not. Aaron Rodgers like, that isn't an

255
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: attack on his u between his ears, on his his ego,

256
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: on his everything, and that is a lot to overcome.

257
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: Whereas Ryan Tannehill's being hyped and I'm carrying the team

258
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: after Derrick Henry so in an odd roundabout way that

259
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: has some injury issues and then some really heavy social issues.

260
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: I actually think it's the Packers. What do you think, Rachel?

261
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: I am all the way in with you as well.

262
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: This has been so much drama with this team as

263
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: of late, the COVID, the injuries that dada dada, We're

264
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: I totally forgot that Aaron Rodgers almost didn't play this year.

265
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: He was in Oh why, he was almost out on

266
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 1: a pier playing guitar for some coins. Okay, we've all

267
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: forgotten about that, because that's how much this team has

268
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: dealt with this season. He almost hosted Jeopardy. It was

269
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: a whole entire situation that not only the coaching staff

270
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 1: had to deal with the team had to deal with.

271
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: I feel like Aaron Rodgers has really put his teammates

272
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: through the ringer this year. Come on, what do you got?

273
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,719
Speaker 1: I'm out? Okay, I just think it's more impressive what

274
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: the Titans are doing right now. I mean, two weeks

275
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 1: in a row and Derrick Henry is I'm sorry, it's

276
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. He's two years ago. I was like, Hey,

277
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: still don't really believe in this guy. I don't know,

278
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: he just you know, he's tall, he's got the chicken

279
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: legs and he runs up right and no way, he

280
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: is unreal. He's like I mean a lot of people

281
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: thought that about Lamar Jackson before you know, he did

282
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: what Lamar does, and you know, it just impresses me

283
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: so much. And once he was gone, I was like,

284
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: there's no way. There's no way gonna go to La

285
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: win that game. There's no way. Then they lose Julio

286
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, nah, it's just it's gonna crumble.

287
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: And it hasn't. So I think it's more impressive. I mean, Aaron,

288
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,599
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is a Super Bowl champ, you know what

289
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: I mean. He's been there, He's he's been tested at

290
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: the at the highest level. And yeah, they are definitely

291
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: overcoming a lot. I will give you that, But I

292
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: just don't think I'm out. I don't think it's impressing.

293
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: When the Titans Titans Rover, I think's good. I wasn't

294
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 1: sure they were going to recover from Week one. I

295
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: honestly thought the Cardinals coming in and winning thirty eight

296
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: to thirteen in Tennessee was like, all right in Tennessee.

297
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: And we'll see it the Chandler Jones game, bounce back.

298
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: Both teams will overcome a lot, we'll see super Bowl picks.

299
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone had Packers Titans right now I

300
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: still don't. You still don't. I mean, that's it. That's fair. Um,

301
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: all right, let's go to the second question here. Okay,

302
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking a lot about Cam Newton's returned

303
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: to the Panthers all week long, as you heard from

304
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: Tom Palace ever earlier in the show, might be starting

305
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: next week against Washington. But for the purpose of our game,

306
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: let's see that touchdown run one more time. Buckle up,

307
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: people all listen to the celebration as well. I mean,

308
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: it's as good as it gets when you have Cam

309
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: Newton back to handle this goal line package we shot

310
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: with the Panthers up first day. Josh three payers are gold,

311
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: the Caffrey squit out white for the white. Newton takes

312
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: the snap and he is even for Pathers touchdown. It's something.

313
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: It's something still, you've seen it a thousand times since Sunday,

314
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: and it's the fitch of the voice, it's the message,

315
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: it's the fact that actually used him in the faggot

316
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: And yet is it better than this celebration that we

317
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: got a few weeks ago by another former MVP. Rogers

318
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: snaps it quick press You're coming, scrambles to his right pumps.

319
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: It runs. Aaron Rodgers's inside the Pylon touchdown Packers, I

320
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: still own you. I'm back. Somebody eyes, where are we out?

321
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: Cam Newton's I'm back celebration. It's more memorable than Aaron

322
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: Rodgers I Own You celebration against the Bears, Kyle start

323
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: with you. I'm out. I think the Rogers is more memorable.

324
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: And I'm just so glad that he did it in

325
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: his own voice and didn't speaking if you had like,

326
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: oh he still oh no, oh my life like Cam

327
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: did no Aaron Rodgers speaking to the last twelve fifteen years.

328
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: This will come up in Aaron Rodgers Hall of Fame speech,

329
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: the first this will be mentioned. There will be jokes

330
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: about it. This is part of the Aaron Rodgers Oscar's

331
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 1: package that they will play when he has done. Cam

332
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: this is like a fun little thing where he sounded

333
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: really weird and came back for who knows what this

334
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers thing. And by the way, he was right,

335
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: there was no darcument. He does own them. I think

336
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: it's Rodgers and a runaway. I'm with you on this one.

337
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: I feel like Cam has an I'm back moment every

338
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: time he speaks every time there's a camera in front

339
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: of him, he has this memorable moment that we all

340
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: talk about the next day. Aaron Rodgers, I feel like,

341
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: do you guys remember I think was it last season

342
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: or was it this season when he maybe it was

343
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown as well, where he did the little yeah, yeah,

344
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: it was against the Bucks up, yes, yes, the two

345
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: pumps and then they lost. It was a really bad game, right.

346
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: I feel like he kind of learned his lesson and

347
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't do those moments anymore. This was You just

348
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: don't see these kinds of things out of Aaron Rodgers,

349
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: and that's what makes them so memorable and why people

350
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: love to talk about. I think you're honest something. I

351
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: think Cam's was one hundred percent plan. I think Aaron's

352
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: was spontaneous. I think he took that hit at the pylon,

353
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: looked up and saw middle fingers and just started screaming

354
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: at the Bears fans, which made me feel it was

355
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: more organic. Well a sports fans also, we love when

356
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: that kind of comes out, like Cam, we're just hot.

357
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: You have this and you probably said this in the

358
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: mirror this morning was just like a moment of passion.

359
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: This is America. We love cringe e stuff, so do.

360
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: I think it'll be more memorable because of that. It'll

361
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 1: keep coming up, and every time he's not back, when

362
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: something happens, they'll play the clip. You know that I'm back,

363
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: or you're back, or you're back. Yeah, you're right. It's

364
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 1: so much different when you listen. I think Aaron Rodgers

365
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: is cooler, you know, definitely cooler, but more memorable because

366
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: of the cringe factor. I'm gonna say no, okay, I'm

367
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: gonna say that. Yeah. And I think Aaron's got a

368
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 1: lot of these. I think he does. He's got a

369
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: lot of good sound bites in the In the of course,

370
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: I guess Cam does as well. I would be sentimental

371
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: on Cam from one second. Yeah, we probably shouldn't. Let's

372
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: just let's just think about out of the league on

373
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: the on the couch, gets called in, meets with his

374
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: owner who told him a couple of years ago, we

375
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: have no use for you. The coach who told him

376
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: we're going to move on from you, gets back, and

377
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: then in his first play scores a touchdown and gets

378
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: to scream on back with his helmet off. Might be

379
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: a little more memorable. Pretty awesome. Literally eating cereal the

380
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: other day, I know, not being I think he's still

381
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: eating cereal though cereals great time. It kind of reminds

382
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: me of the Leave Brittany Alone guy. I don't know,

383
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 1: when you look at it, it's very compliant with them

384
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: when you hear Ah, by the way, he was, that

385
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: guy was right. Chris Crocker is his name. We now

386
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: welcome back to the show a man who has three

387
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: Super Bowl championships as the vice president of player Personnel

388
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: with the New England Patriots. He worked for the Chiefs,

389
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: who works for the Falcons, and now he works with us.

390
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: He's our friend, Scott pale A, Scott, welcome back to

391
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: Good Morning. Hey whoa good morning, Happy Tuesday to everybody.

392
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday, indeed, especially out there in the Bay this

393
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: morning where their season just got reignited with a blowout

394
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: victory over the Rams. We were talking about this in

395
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: the segment earlier, but you had a tweet last night

396
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: that we wanted to run in right here, Let's take

397
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: a look at this tweet that you had in the evening. Here.

398
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: I said last week when everyone was raving about the

399
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 1: Rams trade away all their draft cabal, better work well.

400
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,479
Speaker 1: The Rams record against teams of winning records this year

401
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: is one and two. Bind record have against their seven

402
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 1: wids now is twenty one forty two and one. All right,

403
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: coming off that shell shocking loss last night, this tweet

404
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: was there and a lot of people right now are

405
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: reanalyzing what they thought of the Rams going into this game. Scott,

406
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: where do we stand with la and how do you

407
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: see it from right now from your vantage point? You know,

408
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: I'm not a buyer yet, Peter, But I said this

409
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 1: last week, and I said it last week on tape heads.

410
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: Those numbers that I put out there were just the

411
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: same figures and the same but the same numbers, but

412
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 1: a week earlier. So to me, I had looked at

413
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: this team when they played a good team again, they

414
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: were only one in two against teams with a winning record.

415
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: And I'm seeing all the excitement that these signings and

416
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 1: the trade and then that they garner. But the reality

417
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: is this, when you are building a football team, your

418
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: job isn't to just collect town. It's to build a

419
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 1: football team because in the end, football teams win championships.

420
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: So you're not always looking for the best players. You're

421
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: looking for the right fifty three players in order to

422
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: build a roster that has the right chemistry that can

423
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: work together to win a championship. That is the responsibility

424
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: of the leadership group. And right now what we're seeing

425
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: is a team that doesn't have a lot of cohesiveness

426
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: and isn't playing well together. Now there's still enough time,

427
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: a lot of time left in the NFL season for

428
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: them to take this bye week and then start working together.

429
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: But right now I'm simply not a buyer on how

430
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: they've built this football team. Strong take Scott, and I

431
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: think after the Niners, I think the real winner last

432
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: night might have been the Buccaneers because no one's piling

433
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: on them anymore because it's all about the Rams. But

434
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: the world champs have lost two straight games. Now, we

435
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: remember when they resigned all their starters and Bruce arians

436
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: on the mic, you ain't going nowhere. It was great.

437
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: They had this automatic trip to the Super Bowl. They

438
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,719
Speaker 1: were just streamlined to repeat. Think back on your expectations

439
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: for them, Scott, before the season began. What did you

440
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 1: have your eye on then? And then then how are

441
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: things shaken out the way? You might be surprised by

442
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: their going You know, Kyle having been a part of

443
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: a team that was pretty good and had to repeat championship.

444
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: I know this. When you want to repeat, you can't

445
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: be as good as you wore the year before. You

446
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: have to be much better because you're all of a

447
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: sudden the target. And I really understand exactly what the

448
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: Buccaneers did because there's this emotional attachment to the players

449
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: that helped you get to the Promised Land to help

450
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: you win a championship. But as they kept signing some

451
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: of those veteran players, I was looking at some of

452
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: the players and their age and how that team was

453
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: being built. One of the gifts that the Buccaneers had

454
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: last year was they were extremely healthy, and that allowed

455
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: them to stay consistent and keep continuity not only with

456
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: their offensive line but their whole team. But right now,

457
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have the highest number of players

458
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: on their fifty three men roster that are thirty years

459
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 1: old and older. So to me, one of the things

460
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: that comes with that is a completely different management by

461
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: the coach, by the trainers, by the football team. Because

462
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: there's players they're gonna have to be managed differently and

463
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: given time off. Then we look at some of the

464
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: players that are that plus thirty jpp ron ab Last week,

465
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, who was recently signed, holds a calf muscle

466
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: in pregame. So you're looking at a team where age

467
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 1: may start to become a factor in the second half

468
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: of the shoes and as they try to pursue a

469
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: second championship. Scott and a Boyer here, good to meet

470
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: your brother. Yesterday, seeing talked about the Patriots and whether

471
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: whether or not that the scariest team in the AFC.

472
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: What do you think the biggest factor in the team

473
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: success is this season? You know, I see a couple

474
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: of things that are big factors to me. The primary

475
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: one and the most obvious one, is the fact that

476
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: Mac Jones is developing quickly. But not only is he

477
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 1: developing as a player, he's developing chemistry and respect from

478
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: his teammates very quickly. That's point number one. Point number

479
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: two is their toughness and their physicality. They are going

480
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: out and just smashing teams in the mouth. This last

481
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: weekend was supposed to be a street fight between the

482
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns and the New England Patriots. The Patriots went

483
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 1: out and had three drives of over ninety yards. They

484
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: also went into the game on offense over half of

485
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: the time, or right about half the time. They were

486
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: there in two backs, two tight ends, or six offensive linemen,

487
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 1: and they again just punch the Cleveland Browns in the mouth.

488
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: But to me, the most important thing that the Patriots

489
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: do is they know exactly who they are and who

490
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: they aren't. One of the most important things that coaches

491
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: can do is accentuate the positive and limit the limitations.

492
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: The Patriots are always very clear, not only with themselves

493
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: as coaches, but their football team, and they always tell

494
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: their players, hey know who you are. This is what

495
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: we're going to do. We're not going to try to

496
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: do something that you aren't and that will help us

497
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: win the game. Again, accentuate the positive, limit the limitations.

498
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: Kab When I point to you, can you just say

499
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: back and like the highest your voice can go. Sure.

500
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: Scott cam Newton announced he was after his rushing touchdown

501
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: in Week ten. Head coach Matt Rules said the plan

502
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: is to get the most of Cam, get Cam most

503
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: of the first team reps to put him in the

504
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: best position to start in week eleven. When you were

505
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: with the Falcons, you saw Cam Newton in his prime.

506
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: How much faith do you have in Camp's ability to

507
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: lead the Panthers to success going forward. Yeah, Rachel, I

508
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: was there for five seasons during his prime, and as

509
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: an opponent it wasn't pretty because he was fantastic as

510
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: a player. But right now, I'm not sure what kind

511
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: of player Cam is. What we talk about with him

512
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 1: is he's going to have a tremendous work. I think

513
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: he's going to be there every day. He's gonna do

514
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 1: what he needs to. He's gonna be inspiring, He's gonna

515
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: lead his football team. But the biggest question for Cam

516
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: is going to be how is his body going to

517
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: help hold up? This is a very, very violent game,

518
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 1: and Cam's body has a lot of mileage on it

519
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: because he's played so passionately, He's played so all out.

520
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 1: To me, I think he's going to inspire this football team.

521
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: He's gonna lead this football team, But once again, how

522
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: is his body going to hold up during this stretch?

523
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 1: And that's been the one thing that's held him back

524
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: the last several years. We'll see, I mean, there's a

525
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: chance he starts this weekend and then the Panthers are

526
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,199
Speaker 1: all in basically with Cam Newton as their quarterback from

527
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: there on out. It Scott so good having you, Thanks

528
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: for your candor and obviously thanks for coming on our

529
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: show and giving us your insight. Thanks everybody, having great

530
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: rest of your week. We've seen some clunkers this year.

531
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 1: Clunky has clucky game again since nat. This was that

532
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: it boxes off the crust bar. It's done. God, my goodness,

533
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: did that just happened? Grant? You work too hard to

534
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: come out and play like this. When you see your

535
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: players give all that they have and and you lose

536
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: that way, it's tough. You know you don't want that

537
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 1: for them. Wow, folks, today, I want to say something.

538
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: I want to say something to the Detroit Lions. Dim

539
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: the lights, play my music? Please? No one else is here. Okay,

540
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: it's just just us. It's a safe space. It is November.

541
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 1: Everybody's already counted you out, and I'm here to tell

542
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: you don't listen to those losers. You've lost a lot.

543
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: Who cares? You know who else has lost a lot?

544
00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: Martin Scorson say similarity France and guess what they kept

545
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: going until they got a double? Yet maybe not friends.

546
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: You know what I have loved this season. Your passion.

547
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: These are real tears. Your coach is crying. Dan Campbell

548
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 1: knows you're better than this. All of Detroit knows that

549
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: you are better than this. Sunday was the dawna something,

550
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: something powerful, A little something I like to call hope.

551
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: Can I get an amen? You were o and eight

552
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: going into this game against the Steelers. Now you're o

553
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: eight and one. The tie, the almighty tie. You know

554
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: what a tie does to a winless team. I actually

555
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 1: forgot to check with research to let me get back

556
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: to you on that later in the show. Jared Goff,

557
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: my man, you showed us true grit against the Rams

558
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. I know that little guy is

559
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: still in there. Celebrate the small victories here. You're not

560
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: going to win seventy Oh that's done. You're gonna get

561
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: a win eventually. Tears, please a little quicker, no time?

562
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: Thank you? Sy Okay, you didn't even open them. I'm like, God, okay,

563
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 1: can I get a tight? Can I get a tight? Tight?

564
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: Don't do it for us the media, how do we know?

565
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: Do it for yourselves. They went for Detroit. Go out

566
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: and get yourselves they win, just not Week eleven against

567
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: the Browns. Thank you three, and you know what, it's

568
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: just that this emotion in this team. Do you guys

569
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: feel that? Oh yeah, after this time, Yeah, I feel

570
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: the emotion coming from you. Are you how are you doing?

571
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: Are you okay? A little cat, a little dusty and

572
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: it is like over Colm with emotion on Dan Campbell.

573
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: Could you love that from Gamble that he cried? Well,

574
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: I liked it when he cried and then I lost

575
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: my like forty points the next week, So I would

576
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: love that. But I would say this. You're wearing a

577
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: brown sweatshirt and as a Browns fan, you have been

578
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: through this before. Or maybe that's what I was channeling.

579
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: Maybe channeling would be your guidness. The Lions fans who

580
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: are looking down the barrel of a you know what,

581
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: seeing possibly zero at the end of the season. As

582
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: far as winds go, can I get another type of

583
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: another get even tighter the eyeball. Only you also have

584
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: to get a slip. You have to get the lip

585
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: quivering lip. You know. I always say hang on because

586
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 1: it's worth it. The turnaround, let me tell you, I'm

587
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: not experiencing it right now with the Browns, but the

588
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: turnaround I know is going to be worth it. See it.

589
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: Hang tough, Lions fans. Yeah, hang tough. That's good. That's you.

590
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: Hang tough. That's exactly Ripe Banetta. Take it. See the

591
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: healing will start. I'm just feeling what did you the

592
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: whole bottle? About half? About half people? Um. She mentioned

593
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 1: the toughness of Jared Goff in there at one point, right,

594
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: like he did show it. I know that there's a

595
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: lot of self loathing amongst the Lions fans about Jared

596
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: goff but he has been tough in spots. That was

597
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: the grittiest I think we've seen this team against the Rams. Obviously,

598
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: there was a lot riding on it with him, and

599
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: it was an emotional experience. And we're doing a schedule. Guy,

600
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: here we go forget. We're forgetting about this next week. Okay,

601
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: the brown This is a big bounce back spot for

602
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: the Browns. Sorry this, maybe watch the speech the week after.

603
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: Do you see two wins for the line just once? Two?

604
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: Which two? Do you see it? Call him out nature?

605
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: I see it a little back to back action. Wow,

606
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: they get high, they get hot, they get high. They'd

607
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: be the Browns, I'm sorry, right, and they get the Bears.

608
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: So they're gonna go in a three week lostless streak.

609
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 1: That's good, right, and they had to buy before that's

610
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: that's over a month. We'll say this. They're on Thanksgiving

611
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: against the Bears, entire country watching. Would it not be

612
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: great for Dan Campbell and the Lions to rally around

613
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: one singular cause, and that is victory, getting one for

614
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: the folks of the fine city of Detroit. This where

615
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: Nate Burlison usually be sitting in that seat. It would

616
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: go into a two minute monologue about the people of Detroit,

617
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: the factories through and the factories really would tap into

618
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: that automotive plant a lot of that. I just feel

619
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: like the Lions Thanksgiving that's when they usually shine. I've

620
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: seen Mike mcmanwin games. Sure is there an empathy from you,

621
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: Benetta in the sense of what Peter's asking The Browns

622
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: went through that journey without a win. Would part of

623
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: you like to see the Lions get that win? Just

624
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: don't have to go through what you guys did. I

625
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: would like to see them get that win, just not

626
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: not against Cleveland Brown moving on pas that Yeah, absolutely,

627
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: I personally, you know, I think a lot of people

628
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: look down at it, but I love that. Dan Campbell

629
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: was like, really, a this is the guy that loves

630
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: this team in this city and really feels obviously very

631
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: strongly about this team. And I really hope they get

632
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: that depth. It's the youngest team in the NFL too,

633
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: it is it maybe a long future? Yeah. I liked

634
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: the way you call for your music and your light

635
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: and changed to just snap those fingers. That's what you do. Hey, now,

636
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: hey everybody, we're having so much fun here on a Tuesday,

637
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 1: and good morning football, and it's time to check out

638
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: the power rankings by Dan Hansis. I had a week eleven.

639
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: Every single week we do this according to a theme,

640
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: from the weakest to the strongest. Maybe we have richel

641
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: here this week and we're celebrated everything Canadians. Let's do

642
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: it the theme of Canadian music. Let's start off in

643
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: the Bryan Adams division bought his first real six string

644
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: and at five and dime, here we go the Texans

645
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: down at thirty two. The Jets guy, they were hot

646
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: for a second thirty one, Lions Jackson going up with

647
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: the left side, Dolphins, Falcons, Washington football team, and the Bears,

648
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: who are back this weekend after a buy next, let's

649
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: go to the Alanis Morisset Division. I haven't watched the documentary,

650
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 1: and Peter review I have not know. Have I seen

651
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: the Broadway show, which is no great? All right? Well,

652
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 1: the Niners up put on a Broadway show last night

653
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: in their home stadium. They won. There on the left, Steelers, Panthers, Raiders,

654
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: Eagles coming off a win, Seahawks tough, and then the Broncos.

655
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: All kinds of things going with them, and Peter says

656
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: the Giants are gonna make a run in the hot stretch.

657
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: Let's find out as we go to the Drake Division.

658
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: I guess is that too is in a good spot?

659
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 1: All right? I'm trying out Smith blasphemy. Here on the left,

660
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: the Rams after the loss, and the Ravens after a loss,

661
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: Browning off the top ten, Chargers after a lost, Browns

662
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,719
Speaker 1: after Hansas. What is going on? And then the Saints.

663
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: Everybody's losing except for the Vikings. But let's get finally

664
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: into the Rush Division. The Holy Triumvirate should rush up

665
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: in above Drake Rachel. I don't know, I don't know

666
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: Snow Snow and flows his name and what was his

667
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 1: name in the album? Peter twelve inches of the name

668
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: of the Packers are the best team in the NFL,

669
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: according to Dan Panzas, and then the Titans Hell Yes, Dan, Cowboys, Cardinals, Bills, Bucks, Chiefs,

670
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: Patriots all the way up at a Patriot Act. Patriot Act. Now,

671
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,239
Speaker 1: let's bring the man behind the power are Getty Lee,

672
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: the frontman of the second What's up? Dan? That is

673
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: like the third time that the name of that Snow

674
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: album has come up in this hit for me. And

675
00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: also don't forget about Don't forget about Arcade Fire, one

676
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: of the great indie rock bands of the two thousands.

677
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: Canada is good. So is Rachel Bananda High Rachel, it

678
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 1: really is Arcade Fire. That was Baneta on a centipede

679
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: machine maybe about ten years ago. The Rams came up

680
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: short get their primetime performance against forty nine Ers Money

681
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 1: at Football, Dan, The Rams got hammer. They lost by

682
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. What stood out to you most in the

683
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: power ranking sense for the Rams offense in that loss? Yeah,

684
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: I'm not panicking. I'm not saying the Rams are a

685
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: team that's about to go up in flames here, but

686
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: it did stand out to me that Kyle Shanahan's and

687
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: mastery over Sean McVeigh is kind of a thing. I

688
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: think he's beat him sixth straight times. And of course,

689
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: you know all all the hype around the Odell move,

690
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: which was an upgrade over to Sean Jackson. I'll give

691
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: them that the von Miller move, but ultimately we didn't

692
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: get any payoff there so far. So the loss of

693
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: Robert Woods, I think really jumped out to me, and

694
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: that is something to keep an eye on. Hen was

695
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: missing in that game. Matt Stafford keeping this guy a

696
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: lot of drops, Danny Boy, Danny Boy, taking a look

697
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: at your article here. You use some pretty harsh words

698
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 1: to describe this Browns team after their loss to the Patriots.

699
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: Tell us why you think we need to start believing

700
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: the Browns are showing us who they really are? And also,

701
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,959
Speaker 1: how dare you? I was gonna say, are you tearing

702
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,720
Speaker 1: up my power rankings or are you just met about

703
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: the Browns? Because don't hit out at me. At a

704
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 1: certain point, the Browns, if they're gonna tell us who

705
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: they are, we have to believe them. And I just

706
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: think Cleveland is an inconsistent team that are going to

707
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: look great one week and look terrible the next and

708
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: they've been unable to really build any momentum this season.

709
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 1: So with the Rams, I'm not worried. But the Browns

710
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: I am. And this is the same guy me who

711
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: thought they were about to go on a run that

712
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: would have them everyone talking about them as the best

713
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: team of the Ape. He going in December. Then you

714
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: go to New England and getty five seven. Your quarterback

715
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: gets hurt. Of course, Nick Chubb, you need him on

716
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: the field, but they shouldn't get blown out of the

717
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 1: building if they're a true compender. And that's what happened.

718
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: Not a good book. Sorry, Yeah, I took my medicine, yes,

719
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: and I predicted the Falcons would beat the Cowboys straight up,

720
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 1: and then they lost by forty. Cowboys are coming off

721
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,360
Speaker 1: that victory feeling pretty good, and I gotta say Mahomes

722
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: is also looking pretty good. Now we got this Cowboys

723
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs game, which suddenly is like the game of the

724
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 1: year as you look at this one, who do you

725
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: give the advantage to Chief's offense or the suddenly resurgent

726
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys d Yeah, I'm gonna give it to the chief

727
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: shrikes because I don't know like you, I'm sure and

728
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: everyone else we love Patrick Gohomes's game so much. We

729
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 1: love what we've seen from the Chiefs as a historical

730
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,439
Speaker 1: entity over the last three or four years that we've

731
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 1: kept waiting for them to snap out of it. So

732
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: when they do what they did on Sunday night, you

733
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: kind of get the feeling, Okay, they're gonna take off now.

734
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna that's the camp I'm in that the

735
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: Chiefs are about to get scorching hot. But at the

736
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: same time, this has been a team like the Browns

737
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 1: that every time you kind of think they've turned the corner,

738
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: they'll take a step back. So this is really good matchup.

739
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs is kind of a fascinating guy in the

740
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: mix here because he's a turnover playmaking machine, and the

741
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,439
Speaker 1: Chiefs have been turnover machines. But Treylon Diggs gets burned

742
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: a lot too, So I think the game I come

743
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: down to whether Diggs has a good Diggs game or

744
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: a bad Diggs game. I dig that day, Dan, we

745
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 1: discuss whether the Patriots for the scariest team in the AFC,

746
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: but according to your article, you think it's actually the

747
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: Titans who have one big of late. Of course, with

748
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: missing some pieces. But tell us what aspect of the

749
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: game led you to make that statement. What makes them

750
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: so freaking scary? Man? Well, I guess I don't know.

751
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of basic. But they just keep winning.

752
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: They just keep winning, and they do it because they

753
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: they have some juice to them right now. And you

754
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: see what they're doing these wins where they're getting some breaks,

755
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,439
Speaker 1: they're getting some big stops on defense. The defensive line

756
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: and in general. The pass rush has been such a

757
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: big difference between this year's team and the last couple

758
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: of years teams. If they had this defensive and this

759
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: type of activity the last couple of years, they might

760
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: have been a super Bowl team. They didn't. Now they

761
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: don't have Dereck Henry, but he could come back. So

762
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 1: I kind of look at them when you look at

763
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 1: that scary Titans. If Derrick Henry comes back and looks

764
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: like himself in January and you add him to this

765
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: defense and Ryan Tannehill led offense, yes, I think this

766
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: is a super Bowl team right now. It's just keeping

767
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: their head above water, and I think they've done more

768
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 1: than that over the past month and a half. Dan

783
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: to vote. Let's do a quick around the table right here.

784
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: Who would we vote for to go to Pro Bowl?

785
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: Right now? Peter Deebo Samuel is my Pro Bowl love? Lionheart,

786
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,479
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift? DeAndre Swift, I like that one, Rachel owner

787
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: of my heart, Nick Chubb. Nick Chobb is so good.

788
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: And I'll throw one out for Austin Eckler, who I

789
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: think it's always incredible and he's scrappy and the charges

790
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: will find out what happens for him. But in the meantime,

791
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: Will Selva on the West coast with the news. Pretty

792
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: cool scene there at that lee By Stadium last night,

793
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: I will, I would absolutely agree, and Deebo Samuel went off,

794
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: that is Peach Rags guy and with good reason. The

795
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 1: guy is practically pacing or outpacing Jerry Rice. So he's

796
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: having a memorable season to be sure. And we have

797
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: to talk about Robert Hunt because I feel like we

798
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: haven't talked about him enough. This Dolphins tackle was absolutely fantastic.

799
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,399
Speaker 1: When it came to the most memorable play from Week ten,

800
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 1: of course, he won Angry Runs for this week, even

801
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: though it didn't count either way, he did win it.

802
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 1: But really, truly the main storyline from the Dolphins went

803
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 1: over the Ravens is Tua coming off the bench and

804
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: guiding the Fins to a win. Well, obviously, the Dolphins

805
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: had seen things that they've liked to add of Tuah

806
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: enough to have him start against the Jets in Week eleven.

807
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,280
Speaker 1: He didn't start against Baltimore dudeaway finger injury, but coming

808
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: on in relief of an injured Jacoby Brissette to buy

809
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: aloa completing eight of thirteen passes for one hundred and

810
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 1: fifty eight yards in the twenty two to ten win

811
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: Thursday Night. Washington football team getting some devastating news as

812
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,320
Speaker 1: second year defensive end Chase Young is lost for the

813
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: rest of the season with a torn acl suffered in

814
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:20,319
Speaker 1: Sunday's win over the Buccaneers. Washington also without fellow pass

815
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: Rustaur Montes Sweat will miss at least two more weeks

816
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:28,359
Speaker 1: with a broken jaw. The Steelers getting some positive news

Speaker 1: been proudly displayed at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan since two

826
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 1: thousand and five. With the airbase recently closing, the USO

830
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:30,240

Speaker 1: really enjoyed spending time with you. Nate. We know you

841
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: probably served our country. Tell us about your decisions to

842
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: join the army and how it's impacted your life. I

843
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: mean it impacted my life, still impacts my life in

844
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,279
Speaker 1: a great way. And it's really cool to be here,

845
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, in one of the World Trade Center buildings

846
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: and right outside Ground zero, which it had a big

847
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: impact on me. I was twenty years old when it happened,

848
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: you know, and all of us remember where we were,

849
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: how it affected us. But I didn't have a lot

850
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,919
Speaker 1: going in my life, to be completely honest, and didn't

851
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 1: feel purpose direction didn't know if me being around really mattered.

852
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: You know, the world would keep spinning the same way

853
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: without me, and that's not a good feeling. Everybody that's

854
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 1: felt that. I mean, we listened to Solomon Thomas talking

855
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: about that earlier, like that, that's tough. And I didn't

856
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: join right away after nine to eleven, ended up doing

857
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,720
Speaker 1: some relief work over in the Darfur region of Sudan

858
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: in Africa, and it was there that I gained my

859
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 1: patriotism really and like the people that just wanted to

860
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: hear about America and were so enamored with the fact

861
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 1: that someone would leave there to go to a place

862
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: like that go help. It just made me feel this

863
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,800
Speaker 1: pride and like these people were worth fighting for. And

864
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 1: that's what sort of drew me to the military. And

865
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: then I found out about the Army Special Forces, the

866
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,800
Speaker 1: Green Berets and the Motto Deopresso libert, which means to

867
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,439
Speaker 1: free the oppressed. It just spoke to me like nothing

868
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: ever had in my entire life, and I knew that's

869
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,319
Speaker 1: what I had to do, and so I signed up.

870
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: I came back. I was twenty three years old at

871
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: the time, and I didn't know much about the military.

872
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't know much about what I was

873
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: getting into, but I had that passion, and I knew

874
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,399
Speaker 1: I was not going to quit, Like if it didn't

875
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: work out, I would go somewhere. Great, I'd still get

876
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,359
Speaker 1: to serve my country in another amazing unit. But yeah,

877
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: I sort of had that mindset. And man, the Army

878
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: it shaped me in so many ways. And it's all

879
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 1: about the people around you. It was all about the

880
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 1: other men and women that were willing to sacrifice so

881
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: much and taught me so much in that leadership. And

882
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 1: I'm I'm proud that I was able to just be

883
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: a part of that, part of that team. That's amazing.

884
00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 1: How did it How did it prepare you for football

885
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,320
Speaker 1: once you got into football. There's got to be incredible

886
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: parallels there. What was that relationship, Blake? I think it

887
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 1: was just the confidence that it gave me because I

888
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,959
Speaker 1: never played football growing up. My first time setting foot

889
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: on a field was at twenty nine years old. And

890
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: and I'm not a great athlete, Like I'm a decent athlete,

891
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,919
Speaker 1: definitely work hard and all that, but I never would

892
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: have had the audacity to think that I'd even make

893
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: the team at a place like University of Texas, much

894
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 1: less find a way on the field through you know,

895
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: long snapping, which I didn't even know what it was

896
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,479
Speaker 1: when I first went to school. But I was willing

897
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 1: to take that thankless job because those are those are

898
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,320
Speaker 1: things we do in the military. We're all good with that.

899
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,279
Speaker 1: But yeah, so it took me taught me that, I

900
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: guess that that element of humility, but also just disbelief

901
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,280
Speaker 1: that I could do anything, like I could really do anything.

902
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 1: And you know, that was my American dream to go

903
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,240
Speaker 1: back and at least try to do that and honestly

904
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 1: to pursue that for the guys and girls that didn't

905
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 1: make it back, you know, the ones that continue to

906
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 1: inspire us so much, and me every day. My best

907
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: friend Brad passed away several years ago, and you know,

908
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 1: he still is a voice in my head every day

909
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 1: and the decisions that I make, and yeah, but that

910
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,320
Speaker 1: that was something like, if I didn't join the military,

911
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 1: there's no way I ever would play out. I know

912
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: the work that you do as well as Jay Glazer

913
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: and so many others in the MVP organization, Do you

914
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: mind taking a second is to let the viewers know

915
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: what MVP is and the work that you guys do

916
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: now with not only retired NFL players but also so

917
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 1: many veterans coming back for more. Absolutely, yeah, MVP stands

918
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 1: for merging vets and players, and what we're doing is

919
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 1: we're bringing combat vets and former professional athletes together and

920
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: we're helping him find purpose, identity. That locker room again

921
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: with the uniform comes off. I mean, the number one

922
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: thing you hear from athletes and from vets about what

923
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: they missed the most, it's the guys. You know, it's

924
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: the brotherhood, the camaraderie. Whether it's camouflage or a jersey,

925
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: you just miss that. I mean, of course, the purpose

926
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: and what you're doing, and you know, the high stakes

927
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,359
Speaker 1: and obviously not comparing a battlefield to a ball field

928
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 1: very different places, but those feelings, those emotions, that connection

929
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 1: and mission, that's all very similar. And then the loss

930
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: of that is very similar too, and feeling like you'll

931
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 1: never be great again, and like your best days are over.

932
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: You're in your twenties or thirties, and that's it. That's

933
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: a hard thing to deal with and to face, and

934
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 1: you know, we don't want anybody to ever have to

935
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 1: do that alone. I know when I got done and

936
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: I got cut with the by the Seahawks, it was

937
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: not on my terms. I mean, it just happened, and

938
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 1: it's all good. I was grateful for the opportunity, but

939
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 1: I had gotten out of the military a year before that,

940
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: so I wasn't ready for not having that team, you

941
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 1: know what I mean, not having that locker room or

942
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: something else to sort of chase, and so it was

943
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: a sort of a scary time. I thought about joining

944
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: the military again, and Jay was like, no, I don't

945
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: do that. Let's let's let's let's talk about what you

946
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 1: got going on right now, because there's a lot of

947
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 1: former players and vets going through the same thing, and

948
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: let's help them over forward. That's what I love about you.

949
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: I actually, my partner worked with Nate on Indivisible about

950
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 1: a year ago, and I just heard NonStop stories about

951
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,320
Speaker 1: what an incredible person you are. At the conversations that

952
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 1: you were starting, and I think it's really cool that

953
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 1: even after all the service that you've done for this country,

954
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: that you still continue to do that. I appreciate that.

955
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: Pete's a great guy. He's my guy, Pete, thank you

956
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 1: so much for your service. Name awesome names. I appreciate you. Guys.
