Speaker 1: Time today. What time is it? Game time? All right,
Speaker 1: little instant reaction, I'll start with a game. Fewer people
Speaker 1: probably watched the Chargers lose to Arizona seventeen fifteen. What
Speaker 1: you were watching are the two best quarterbacks in the
Speaker 1: league who have never had any support. Now, James Connor
Speaker 1: is really a substantial running back for the Arizona Cardos,
Speaker 1: who won on a walkoff field goal, So he's got something.
Speaker 1: But Arizona's got the worst owner in the league. They
Speaker 1: flushed out the front office. They have another young coach.
Speaker 1: Cross your fingers on that this offensive line is a
Speaker 1: better version of the awful ones they've mostly had. Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray has just this is why I support him. He's
Speaker 1: had complete utter dysfunction his entire career in Arizona. But
Speaker 1: it could be worse for Justin Herbert, who tonight had
Speaker 1: no run game, patchwork offensive line. Will Disley at tight
Speaker 1: end was his go to receiver. What a disaster. I mean,
Speaker 1: Herbert was just manufacturing offense. At one point he had
Speaker 1: a fifteen play drive. You accounted for almost four hundred yards,
Speaker 1: and I mean it is just four yards here, six
Speaker 1: yards there. No run game, nine yard completion Justin Herbert
Speaker 1: with a minute fifty four left, gave them a fifteen
Speaker 1: to fourteen lead, five field goals. They've got no playmakers.
Speaker 1: I mean, when Brock Purty isn't good in the red
Speaker 1: zone and you still have playmakers. It's one thing. They
Speaker 1: don't have any of the Chargers. They got nothing, So
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen and Mike Williams they shed those contracts and
Speaker 1: they draft the lad McConkey from Georgia, who's a nice
Speaker 1: rookie slot had a couple decent catches, but they just
Speaker 1: don't have any players and JK. Dobbins behind that offensive line,
Speaker 1: no run game. But this is the thing you have
Speaker 1: to contextualize it. If you put Kyder Murray with San
Speaker 1: Francisco's talent the last four years or Herbert with San
Speaker 1: Francisco's talent, I think they have a trophy and Herbert
Speaker 1: I think is more popular because he's been less controversial.
Speaker 1: But they just I mean, you saw Kyder's forty four
Speaker 1: yard touchdown run. Herbert just methodically marching his team down
Speaker 1: behind a battle line with no run game. He has
Speaker 1: to throw. Everybody in Arizona knows it. These guys are
Speaker 1: Those are really good NFL quarterbacks. They haven't had the
Speaker 1: best owners, the best front offices, the best support staffs,
Speaker 1: the best offensive lines. And that's why I support Herbert
Speaker 1: and Kyler Murray. I mean, I love Jared Goff, but
Speaker 1: Detroit has two legit backs, the best offensive line, a
Speaker 1: deep threat, a clever offensive coordinator. Sam Laporta. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's an embarrassment of riches. And Jared's very good. I'm
Speaker 1: a Jared Goff stand but he's got I mean, he's
Speaker 1: got a convertible driving in Malibu on an eighty two
Speaker 1: degree summer day. It is good living if you're the
Speaker 1: quarterback of the Detroit Lions. So as Arizona wins that game,
Speaker 1: there are really weird franchise. I've said they're kind of
Speaker 1: a lesser Buffalo Bills. I'm never quite sure what I
Speaker 1: get half to half with Arizona or game to game
Speaker 1: with them, But I will say people can be incredit
Speaker 1: goal of Kyler Murray. Take him out of this operation,
Speaker 1: and what do you have, Carolina. That's what you have.
Speaker 1: A kooky, impulsive ownership situation. And I think the Chargers
Speaker 1: have a chance to make the playoffs. I think the
Speaker 1: wildcard situation in the AFC is incredibly weak. The Jets
Speaker 1: we kind of like, and they're two and five, so
Speaker 1: like Pittsburgh looks like to me, Pittsburgh's not as good
Speaker 1: as Baltimore. I don't care what records are, and we'll
Speaker 1: get to Baltimore in a second. But I think the
Speaker 1: Chargers will eventually find their way once the offensive line
Speaker 1: gets healthier. I think they'll kind of figure out their
Speaker 1: way to get to nine wins and that'll get you,
Speaker 1: I mean, two US coming back. We'll see what Miami is.
Speaker 1: But I was actually impressed with both Herbert and Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray tonight so much. You know, I've said this before.
Speaker 1: It's one thing if you're a trust fund kid, but
Speaker 1: if you have had to fight through obstacles and turbulence
Speaker 1: your entire life and you never end up making any money,
Speaker 1: you raise a great family, you're a great dad. That's
Speaker 1: incredibly impressive to me. Some guys, it's not fair. They
Speaker 1: are just pulling franchises uphill from the minute they step
Speaker 1: into this league. And that is justin Herbert and that
Speaker 1: is Kyler Murray pulling their franchises uphill. Thankfully, Herbert finally
Speaker 1: has the right coach. They, however, in my opinion, need
Speaker 1: another draft class. They've got to shore up the interior
Speaker 1: of the offensive line, and they need more perimeter help.
Speaker 1: Will Disley can't be your go to target on the road.
Speaker 1: He can't be Arizona walk off field goal seventeen to
Speaker 1: fifteen over the Chargers. So Baltimore really hammers Tampa forty
Speaker 1: one to thirty one. Not indicative of what it really was.
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's gonna win MVP. Lamar Jackson right now is
Speaker 1: the best football player on the planet, not Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes the best quarterback. Lamar is the best overall
Speaker 1: player on Monday Night Football. He has twenty touchdowns and
Speaker 1: no picks tonight, five touchdowns, no picks. The thing about
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson that I was really noticing tonight, they finally
Speaker 1: have given him Zayflowers. They finally have weapons for him.
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody sees the field. And I
Speaker 1: thought about this watching Lamar a lot of times. With
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks and Justin Fields or Zach Wilson, you know,
Speaker 1: they have gifts, they move well, they have good arms,
Speaker 1: but they just don't see the field. Is it anxiety?
Speaker 1: Is the fear of getting hit where they get they
Speaker 1: get tunnel vision, whatever it is. The ability for Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson to sit in the pocket and be able to
Speaker 1: see sideline to sideline. It's like he's always throwing the
Speaker 1: ball to the right person. You get all the upside
Speaker 1: and really very little downside. And you know, I he
Speaker 1: he has I don't know how it ended. At one
Speaker 1: point he had eighteen touchdown passes without a pick. You know,
Speaker 1: there was this for years. I mean I when he
Speaker 1: came into the league, I didn't know what he was
Speaker 1: gonna be. I mean I had no idea. I mean
Speaker 1: I watched him play at Louisville in college and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't think this is gonna work. I didn't think
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott was gonna work. By the way, Dak Prescott
Speaker 1: fail to the fourth round. So everybody in the league
Speaker 1: question whether it was gonna work. But I you know,
Speaker 1: NFL GM's missed on quarterbacks all the time. What you
Speaker 1: have to be able to do is acknowledge when you
Speaker 1: make a mistake and go, yeah, this guy can play.
Speaker 1: So it was very obvious. By the middle of a
Speaker 1: second year, You're like, this guy's you know, he's two
Speaker 1: three touchdowns a game. He has developed into such an
Speaker 1: extraordinary pocket passer, and I think a lot of it
Speaker 1: is his He has no fear in the pocket. I
Speaker 1: mean he got hammered. He doesn't get hammered as much
Speaker 1: as he used to. He got hammered tonight two or
Speaker 1: three times. Couple helmet on helmets. He's a totally fearless player,
Speaker 1: completely utterly fearless player. And he's not he doesn't have
Speaker 1: a dad bod, he's not thick. He just doesn't care.
Speaker 1: And then you add Derrick Henry to it. Did you
Speaker 1: notice that Troy Aikman shot tonight at the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: when he said, you know, there's a lot of teams
Speaker 1: could have used Derrick Henry and Joe Buck said anybody
Speaker 1: in particular. That's the difference in the Baltimore front office
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboy Jerry Jones led front office, Dereck
Speaker 1: Henry was out there for eight million bucks, and Baltimore's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna, We're gonna do that. I'll continue to say
Speaker 1: that Kansas City's the best team in the league, But
Speaker 1: who's playing the best football? And I think it's Baltimore.
Speaker 1: I just I mean it's they reeled off at one
Speaker 1: point twenty seven straight points and Tampa's good team. Now again,
Speaker 1: Mike Evans got hurt that that was tough. Baker Mayfield
Speaker 1: to a really bad pick into the end zone. That
Speaker 1: kind of started the avalanche. And you know it's like
Speaker 1: Brock Purty throwing three picks against Kansas City or Baker
Speaker 1: Mayfield a big pick in the end zone and gets Baltimore.
Speaker 1: Then the avalanche starts, and then there's no going back
Speaker 1: on that. But I there's not a player on the planet,
Speaker 1: including Patrick Mahomes, that I enjoy watching play more than
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. And you watch him on the sidelines. They
Speaker 1: should just write a book on how to act as
Speaker 1: a star quarterback. He's such an adult, he's such a
Speaker 1: grown up, so humble. He's on the sidelines and you
Speaker 1: know he's asking players how you doing, And you know
Speaker 1: he's not over there gloating or he's just such a
Speaker 1: team guy. I just love him. Cannot get enough of
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. And the only criticism I have of that
Speaker 1: game tonight, I think I counted seventeen penalties in that game.
Speaker 1: You know, you know, a penalty that drives me crazy.
Speaker 1: And when you get the Baltimore center got tagged for this.
Speaker 1: He's really good center. He's one of the top two
Speaker 1: or three centers in the league. Then you went to
Speaker 1: Iowa first round pick is the illegal offensive lineman illegally
Speaker 1: downfield and so he got into a you know, a
Speaker 1: wrestling match with a nose tackle for Tampa who kind
Speaker 1: of spun him around, and then he's like four or
Speaker 1: three yards past the line of scrimmage. Is that affecting
Speaker 1: the play? Does not have any positive or negative effect
Speaker 1: on the play. At some point, I feel like officials
Speaker 1: have to use discretion, Like in a pass interference, you know,
Speaker 1: the signal for the ball is not catchable, referee uses discretion.
Speaker 1: It was it was past interference, but the ball is
Speaker 1: not catchable. If an offensive lineman is downfield illegally and
Speaker 1: it's not part of the play and he gets spun
Speaker 1: around and pushed, why slow the game down? Like, why
Speaker 1: do that? You're hurting the consumer, the product, people in
Speaker 1: the stadium, people watching on television. You know. I used
Speaker 1: to work with a guy, Jason Whitlock, once suggested he
Speaker 1: was a college offensive lineman that if there's a no holding,
Speaker 1: just no more holding, which I don't believe in, but
Speaker 1: I've thought about this before. If there was a holding
Speaker 1: on the other side of the play, if you do
Speaker 1: a run to the right and the left tackle grasps
Speaker 1: somebody you just pick the flag up. It's just it's
Speaker 1: not a holding penalty. I don't think it will encourage it,
Speaker 1: but I because you know, I mean if that even
Speaker 1: if you didn't encourage a left tackle on a sweep
Speaker 1: right to hold, it wouldn't affect the play anyway. But
Speaker 1: I just I think sometimes you just have to have
Speaker 1: better judgment as an official. And you know, it's like
Speaker 1: you could pull everybody over for going four miles over
Speaker 1: the speed limit, but to some degree, law enforcement lets
Speaker 1: people speed to keep the flow of traffic going. Especially
Speaker 1: at rush everybody's speeding if possible. You just want the
Speaker 1: continuous flow of traffic for the good of the commute,
Speaker 1: for everybody. Some of those penalties tonight are just you're
Speaker 1: just slowing the game down. But Baltimore forty one, Tampa
Speaker 1: thirty one, I don't even you know, you start looking
Speaker 1: around at these teams. It is not a coincidence. Dallas stinks,
Speaker 1: it's not a coincidence. Baltimore's really good. It's not just
Speaker 1: the quarterback to go and sign Dereck Henry. Isn't it crazy?
Speaker 1: I mean, here at the volume, I'm often surprised. I'll
Speaker 1: see a podcast that's available, and I'm like, why isn't
Speaker 1: anybody hiring that person? Is anybody paying attention? There are
Speaker 1: really talented people in the world that are out there
Speaker 1: to be hired. Management needs to do a better job
Speaker 1: of finding them. I mean the fact that Dereck Henry
Speaker 1: had a few takers. When Tom Brady left New England,
Speaker 1: there were two teams that made bids on him, like
Speaker 1: aggressive bids. And I know both of Tampa Jason Light
Speaker 1: excellent GM and Tom Tellusko with the Chargers and Don Yee,
Speaker 1: Tom's agent. You know, those are the two teams that
Speaker 1: was it. Tom Brady when you retired, was still a
Speaker 1: top ten quarterback. What are people doing? I mean, it's
Speaker 1: amazing to me. People criticized Atlanta for getting Kirk Cousins
Speaker 1: and then drafting Michael Pennox. First of all, you have
Speaker 1: to get a quarterback for the future. It's okay if
Speaker 1: you sit for a couple of years. Jordan loves great
Speaker 1: for Green Bay. He sat for three years. Who cares
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers sat for three years. You can sit guys.
Speaker 1: You'd rather they play year one or two so you
Speaker 1: can use those low salary years with a cap. But
Speaker 1: what you want to do is win and develop a
Speaker 1: quarterback like Kirk Cousins was on the market for a
Speaker 1: reasonable price. How many takers? It's just it's incredible that Baltimore,
Speaker 1: a well run organization, goes and grabs Derrick Henry, who
Speaker 1: is I mean, I know he's past his prime, but
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson plus Derrick Henry equals fantastic. And then you
Speaker 1: throw in Za Flowers and some of their perimeter weapons.
Speaker 1: Baltimore's going nowhere. This team is just so fun to watch.
