I know. I'm Jamie Yardol, 12 00:01:03,068 --> 00:01:05,948 Speaker 1: Jess mccordy, Peter Strigger, Joe Thomas. Time for a Sunday 13 00:01:05,988 --> 00:01:08,948 Speaker 1: preview presented by Draftking Sports Book. This is the biggest 14 00:01:09,028 --> 00:01:11,628 Speaker 1: underdog the Packers have been in lambau Field since Aaron 15 00:01:11,708 --> 00:01:14,228 Speaker 1: Rodgers came to Green Bay in two thousand and eight. 16 00:01:14,628 --> 00:01:16,468 Speaker 1: Some things that we're expecting to see from the Packers 17 00:01:16,468 --> 00:01:18,628 Speaker 1: being such a big underdog at home against the Cowboys 18 00:01:18,628 --> 00:01:20,188 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Peter, what are you thought. I mean, I 19 00:01:20,188 --> 00:01:22,388 Speaker 1: love the fact that it's the Packers and the Cowboys, 20 00:01:22,428 --> 00:01:24,348 Speaker 1: but I also think Aaron Rodgers is to focus and 21 00:01:24,348 --> 00:01:26,868 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the coach, Mike McCarthy. There is a 22 00:01:26,908 --> 00:01:30,228 Speaker 1: fun little storyline here. Have Mike McCarthy having a street 23 00:01:30,308 --> 00:01:33,828 Speaker 1: named after him in Lambeau and being unceremoniously fired midway 24 00:01:33,908 --> 00:01:36,108 Speaker 1: through the season as a Green Bay Packers head coach 25 00:01:36,108 --> 00:01:38,388 Speaker 1: who had won a Super Bowl title. Maybe that wasn't 26 00:01:38,388 --> 00:01:40,748 Speaker 1: the most graceful way it should have been handled. Maybe 27 00:01:40,748 --> 00:01:43,068 Speaker 1: he should have been given the rest of that season. McCarthy, 28 00:01:43,268 --> 00:01:45,548 Speaker 1: out of football for a year, decides, I'm going to 29 00:01:45,628 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 1: dig into the numbers, dig into the playbook, dig into 30 00:01:47,708 --> 00:01:51,388 Speaker 1: the stats, learns, analytics, interviews with the Cowboys, gets the 31 00:01:51,428 --> 00:01:53,508 Speaker 1: Cowboys head job, and now for the first time, is 32 00:01:53,508 --> 00:01:56,188 Speaker 1: facing the Packers in Lambeau and is a huge favorite. 33 00:01:56,588 --> 00:01:59,268 Speaker 1: It's a Dallas Cowboys head coach. I'm here for the 34 00:01:59,348 --> 00:02:02,188 Speaker 1: McCarthy Rogers stuff, and I'm not looking for drama. I'm 35 00:02:02,228 --> 00:02:04,828 Speaker 1: looking for the embrace. I'm looking for the friendship that 36 00:02:04,828 --> 00:02:06,428 Speaker 1: the two really do have, and I think that's real. 37 00:02:06,468 --> 00:02:08,028 Speaker 1: They said they texted this week, but that's a look 38 00:02:08,028 --> 00:02:10,988 Speaker 1: at it the strategy McCarthy. He talks to dan quinn. 39 00:02:11,068 --> 00:02:13,668 Speaker 1: Dan quinn, he's faced Rogers McCarthy. He knows a thing 40 00:02:13,708 --> 00:02:16,188 Speaker 1: or two that gets Rodgers going Packers. I mean, this 41 00:02:16,188 --> 00:02:18,348 Speaker 1: could be a tailspin. This season could go off the rails. 42 00:02:18,508 --> 00:02:20,668 Speaker 1: And if Mike McCarthy's the one, the irony of it 43 00:02:20,748 --> 00:02:23,388 Speaker 1: all to be one to blow out the Packers in 44 00:02:23,628 --> 00:02:26,268 Speaker 1: Lambo as a coach of the Cowboys. Gosh, that's NFL 45 00:02:26,308 --> 00:02:29,668 Speaker 1: storyline fodder, and I love that, stuffy hope Aaron Rodgers 46 00:02:29,668 --> 00:02:32,668 Speaker 1: has his track spikes because Dallas brings the best stakes 47 00:02:32,828 --> 00:02:36,348 Speaker 1: rush in the NFL to lambeau Field, and the Green 48 00:02:36,388 --> 00:02:38,988 Speaker 1: Bay Packers offensive line hasn't exactly done a good job 49 00:02:39,108 --> 00:02:42,428 Speaker 1: blocking for Aaron Rodgers this season, So Aaron's gonna have 50 00:02:42,468 --> 00:02:44,468 Speaker 1: to get the fountain of youth and remember how to 51 00:02:44,548 --> 00:02:46,228 Speaker 1: run around and throw the ball down the field if 52 00:02:46,228 --> 00:02:48,908 Speaker 1: they want any chance in this game. Because that Dallas 53 00:02:48,908 --> 00:02:51,748 Speaker 1: past pass rush, Chris collins Worth got me there for 54 00:02:51,788 --> 00:02:56,148 Speaker 1: a second with It's good the Cowboys. They're gonna be 55 00:02:56,148 --> 00:02:59,428 Speaker 1: getting after him, and their only chance for the Packers 56 00:02:59,508 --> 00:03:02,228 Speaker 1: is if Aaron Rodgers starts running outside the pocket, they 57 00:03:02,228 --> 00:03:03,908 Speaker 1: get a lot of boots to get some play actions 58 00:03:03,908 --> 00:03:06,628 Speaker 1: give them an opportunity to not stand in the pocket, 59 00:03:06,748 --> 00:03:08,908 Speaker 1: because there's no way the Packers offensive Lincoln Home. You 60 00:03:09,028 --> 00:03:12,348 Speaker 1: live in Wisconsin. What are people mad at the Packers. 61 00:03:12,428 --> 00:03:14,348 Speaker 1: There's a lot of sadness. It's a lot of there's 62 00:03:14,388 --> 00:03:18,828 Speaker 1: no doubt, there's so much frustration. They've become to believe 63 00:03:18,988 --> 00:03:21,588 Speaker 1: that if Brett Farve or then now Aaron Rodgers is 64 00:03:21,588 --> 00:03:23,388 Speaker 1: your quarterback, you're gonna have a good team. You're good. 65 00:03:23,428 --> 00:03:26,068 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter like, oh, Davante Adams leaves in the 66 00:03:26,068 --> 00:03:28,868 Speaker 1: off season, you know this guy's injured. That guy leaves, Like, 67 00:03:29,188 --> 00:03:30,988 Speaker 1: we're gonna be fine. We got the guy at quarterback, Joe, 68 00:03:31,028 --> 00:03:32,988 Speaker 1: I take them to go to the super Bowl. Hey, 69 00:03:33,028 --> 00:03:35,748 Speaker 1: I believe in them. I still believe there's a chance. 70 00:03:35,828 --> 00:03:40,028 Speaker 1: I can't I can't fathom. I can't fathom a Packers 71 00:03:40,028 --> 00:03:42,988 Speaker 1: team with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback being so inept. You 72 00:03:43,108 --> 00:03:47,668 Speaker 1: learn things and remembers it in a binary manner, one 73 00:03:47,748 --> 00:03:50,468 Speaker 1: or zero, like they're either really good or they're not good. 74 00:03:50,668 --> 00:03:52,908 Speaker 1: That's how I think of Tom Brady, So I think 75 00:03:52,908 --> 00:03:54,828 Speaker 1: if Aaron Rodgers, that's how I thought of Peyton Manning. 76 00:03:54,948 --> 00:03:58,468 Speaker 1: So in my head, I still can't understand that Aaron Rodgers, 77 00:03:58,588 --> 00:04:01,788 Speaker 1: with the Green Bay Packers, with the coaching staff that's 78 00:04:01,828 --> 00:04:05,668 Speaker 1: still there, is playing so poorly. He's playing poorly too. 79 00:04:05,708 --> 00:04:07,268 Speaker 1: It's not just the people around him, it's such as 80 00:04:07,348 --> 00:04:10,468 Speaker 1: the receivers, but he's throwing interceptions, He's doing things that 81 00:04:10,868 --> 00:04:12,948 Speaker 1: it doesn't even look like Aaron Rodgers when you're watching 82 00:04:12,948 --> 00:04:15,188 Speaker 1: it on TAM. Yeah. So true. We talked to Kurt 83 00:04:15,228 --> 00:04:18,108 Speaker 1: Warner a little bit yesterday just about quarterback play overall. 84 00:04:18,228 --> 00:04:20,548 Speaker 1: He was saying, like Aaron Rodgers has some bad plays. 85 00:04:20,588 --> 00:04:22,988 Speaker 1: It's like, but it's gonna take the entire team, receivers 86 00:04:22,988 --> 00:04:26,348 Speaker 1: stepping up, getting open offensive line like you alluded to 87 00:04:26,468 --> 00:04:28,508 Speaker 1: being able to protect to get them going. But for me, 88 00:04:28,588 --> 00:04:31,628 Speaker 1: I'm tired of talking about the Packers. But he's like coincidental. 89 00:04:31,628 --> 00:04:33,828 Speaker 1: They're playing the Dallas Cowboys, a team that we always 90 00:04:33,828 --> 00:04:38,428 Speaker 1: thought about. They have a lot of storylines. Ezekiel Elliott 91 00:04:38,428 --> 00:04:40,668 Speaker 1: will be back after Tony Poller went off. Their pass 92 00:04:40,748 --> 00:04:42,828 Speaker 1: game before the bye week. Who gets the share of 93 00:04:42,828 --> 00:04:45,908 Speaker 1: the carries? You mentioned Michael Parsons, you mentioned the pass 94 00:04:46,148 --> 00:04:48,988 Speaker 1: us Treybon Diggs. Can these receivers get open against these 95 00:04:49,028 --> 00:04:51,868 Speaker 1: Cowboys DBS. I want to see the overall game and 96 00:04:52,108 --> 00:04:53,548 Speaker 1: how is gonna come out with the x is and 97 00:04:53,588 --> 00:04:56,388 Speaker 1: oldest part of it, to Mike McCarthy, to Aaron Rodgers, 98 00:04:56,428 --> 00:04:58,108 Speaker 1: all of that stuff. But let's talk about the guys 99 00:04:58,108 --> 00:04:59,508 Speaker 1: that are going to impact in this game, and a 100 00:04:59,508 --> 00:05:02,068 Speaker 1: lot of those players are on the Dallas. Absolutely, there's 101 00:05:02,108 --> 00:05:05,188 Speaker 1: just crazy things happening Rodgers this season. That game against 102 00:05:05,188 --> 00:05:07,108 Speaker 1: the Bills, like the largest spread he was up against, 103 00:05:07,108 --> 00:05:09,348 Speaker 1: and now he's the first time home underdog in his 104 00:05:09,388 --> 00:05:11,948 Speaker 1: career by the three points. It's a wild thing. As 105 00:05:11,988 --> 00:05:14,388 Speaker 1: we take a closer look at the Cowboys Packers game, 106 00:05:14,428 --> 00:05:17,228 Speaker 1: the Packers are getting four and a half points and 107 00:05:17,268 --> 00:05:19,908 Speaker 1: the overunder is set at forty three and a half. 108 00:05:20,308 --> 00:05:24,228 Speaker 1: Coming up, the balls is in the building. Roger Goodell 109 00:05:24,348 --> 00:05:26,908 Speaker 1: has landed here in Munich. We hear it's this first time, 110 00:05:26,948 --> 00:05:29,188 Speaker 1: which I think is really incredible.

You just got here, what's your 140 00:07:23,988 --> 00:07:26,988 Speaker 1: initial reaction. Well, I've been watching you all week, not you, yeah, 141 00:07:27,028 --> 00:07:31,948 Speaker 1: I know everybody else. But the reality is we felt 142 00:07:31,948 --> 00:07:34,548 Speaker 1: this excitement happening for so long. I mean, you all 143 00:07:34,548 --> 00:07:36,468 Speaker 1: know the story about the number of people signed up 144 00:07:36,508 --> 00:07:39,908 Speaker 1: for tickets. And literally when I got to the airport, 145 00:07:40,308 --> 00:07:43,388 Speaker 1: someone was taking us over from security into another area 146 00:07:43,548 --> 00:07:45,468 Speaker 1: and she turned around and told me the story about 147 00:07:45,468 --> 00:07:47,348 Speaker 1: how they all got up at two o'clock in the morning. 148 00:07:47,348 --> 00:07:49,188 Speaker 1: Her boyfriend made her get up and they were all 149 00:07:49,228 --> 00:07:51,788 Speaker 1: trying to get tickets, and they had five different computers 150 00:07:51,828 --> 00:07:53,908 Speaker 1: going and wants to get six tickets, and they ended 151 00:07:53,948 --> 00:07:55,988 Speaker 1: up getting them, and so she says, it's the greatest 152 00:07:55,988 --> 00:07:58,228 Speaker 1: thing in the world. So she's excited, and you could 153 00:07:58,228 --> 00:08:00,788 Speaker 1: just so that was almost the first interaction I had 154 00:08:00,908 --> 00:08:02,988 Speaker 1: when I hit the ground. It's awesome. You have a 155 00:08:03,028 --> 00:08:05,468 Speaker 1: history with the league in Nationale, going back to your 156 00:08:05,508 --> 00:08:07,588 Speaker 1: years in the nineties working for the league, Like you 157 00:08:07,628 --> 00:08:09,228 Speaker 1: see this dream come to a reality. What does it 158 00:08:09,268 --> 00:08:11,948 Speaker 1: mean to you personally? Well, Paul Teger, but when he 159 00:08:11,988 --> 00:08:14,788 Speaker 1: became commissioner eighty nine and the wall fell down, he said, 160 00:08:14,988 --> 00:08:16,588 Speaker 1: you get on a plane, go figure out how to 161 00:08:16,588 --> 00:08:20,988 Speaker 1: play a game in Germany. And so eighty nine, all 162 00:08:21,028 --> 00:08:22,908 Speaker 1: the wall had just fallen and I went over. I 163 00:08:22,908 --> 00:08:25,068 Speaker 1: went to check Porchela, I went into East Berlin, the 164 00:08:25,068 --> 00:08:27,668 Speaker 1: whole thing, and I was by myself. I mean, I 165 00:08:27,748 --> 00:08:31,308 Speaker 1: literally had zero contact and we had figured out. Six 166 00:08:31,348 --> 00:08:33,748 Speaker 1: months later, we played the Rams and the Chiefs and 167 00:08:34,068 --> 00:08:36,908 Speaker 1: Olympic Stadium in Berlin and none of us knew what 168 00:08:36,908 --> 00:08:38,828 Speaker 1: was going to happen. We didn't know whether people are 169 00:08:38,828 --> 00:08:40,788 Speaker 1: going to walk in and we had I think it 170 00:08:40,828 --> 00:08:43,868 Speaker 1: was fifty six thousand people, close to sixty thousand people 171 00:08:44,108 --> 00:08:47,788 Speaker 1: all tailgating before the game, and it was unbelievable and it, 172 00:08:48,068 --> 00:08:50,668 Speaker 1: you know, it just showed us at that moment right there, 173 00:08:50,908 --> 00:08:53,908 Speaker 1: for you know, a preseason game without a lot of promotion, 174 00:08:54,148 --> 00:08:56,428 Speaker 1: how much they love the game of football, and to 175 00:08:56,548 --> 00:09:00,588 Speaker 1: see how that's evolved through World League, NFL Europe and 176 00:09:00,668 --> 00:09:03,188 Speaker 1: now with our first regular season game in Munich, it's 177 00:09:03,268 --> 00:09:05,268 Speaker 1: sort of hard to believe. So it's cool for me. 178 00:09:05,708 --> 00:09:07,588 Speaker 1: What stood out to you about the city of Munich 179 00:09:07,628 --> 00:09:09,668 Speaker 1: that gave you the confidence that, hey, if we bring 180 00:09:09,668 --> 00:09:11,668 Speaker 1: an NFL game here, people are going to embrace it 181 00:09:11,708 --> 00:09:13,908 Speaker 1: and it's going to be a huge success. Well, our 182 00:09:13,948 --> 00:09:15,788 Speaker 1: team deserves a lot of the credit for there, because 183 00:09:15,788 --> 00:09:17,988 Speaker 1: they you know, they had a whole bidding process with 184 00:09:18,148 --> 00:09:21,748 Speaker 1: nine cities. I really only saw most of the results 185 00:09:21,748 --> 00:09:24,788 Speaker 1: on the three finalists and it was pretty clear, frankly, 186 00:09:24,788 --> 00:09:27,348 Speaker 1: and I think what really stood out two things. I 187 00:09:27,388 --> 00:09:30,628 Speaker 1: think the stadium, which you guys have seen, Alias Arenas, 188 00:09:31,388 --> 00:09:33,588 Speaker 1: is a first class stadium, and I think that was 189 00:09:34,468 --> 00:09:37,908 Speaker 1: very compelling for our team. And second was the passion. 190 00:09:38,428 --> 00:09:43,188 Speaker 1: And I think this city speaks so much about Germany. 191 00:09:43,388 --> 00:09:45,668 Speaker 1: It's you know, it's it's right there at the top, 192 00:09:45,748 --> 00:09:48,548 Speaker 1: and it's so to me, I think all of it fit. 193 00:09:48,748 --> 00:09:51,268 Speaker 1: And you know, by the reaction, looks like they made 194 00:09:51,308 --> 00:09:54,828 Speaker 1: a good choice. They definitely did. You mentioned Alians Arena. 195 00:09:54,908 --> 00:09:57,428 Speaker 1: We were there a by Immunich game and the atmosphere 196 00:09:57,588 --> 00:09:59,588 Speaker 1: was just a lectured They scored I think six goals 197 00:09:59,588 --> 00:10:02,588 Speaker 1: in that game. Just watching how the fans reacted and 198 00:10:02,668 --> 00:10:05,548 Speaker 1: how exciting the cheering and even how welcoming they were 199 00:10:05,588 --> 00:10:08,268 Speaker 1: to all of us. How excited are you to experience 200 00:10:08,308 --> 00:10:10,868 Speaker 1: that firsthand Sunday when the Bucks take on the Seahawks. 201 00:10:11,068 --> 00:10:12,988 Speaker 1: I am, because you know, one of the things when, 202 00:10:13,188 --> 00:10:15,548 Speaker 1: particularly when I go to an international game, you always 203 00:10:15,548 --> 00:10:18,988 Speaker 1: like to judge how the fans understand the game. How 204 00:10:19,628 --> 00:10:21,468 Speaker 1: you know, when I first went, we had our first 205 00:10:21,468 --> 00:10:24,188 Speaker 1: game in Tokyo, an eighty nine. You know, they were 206 00:10:24,468 --> 00:10:28,748 Speaker 1: referees to throw a flag and they start clappic when 207 00:10:28,788 --> 00:10:31,028 Speaker 1: we now stay the game was going to go into overtime. 208 00:10:31,068 --> 00:10:34,748 Speaker 1: They all thought it was an encourt. Yeah, yeah, more 209 00:10:34,788 --> 00:10:37,948 Speaker 1: football and so but that was great for us. And 210 00:10:38,588 --> 00:10:40,628 Speaker 1: but you know, you see it when I was at 211 00:10:40,628 --> 00:10:43,508 Speaker 1: the London game, at the Packers and the Giants game. 212 00:10:44,028 --> 00:10:47,428 Speaker 1: The fans here are just as sophisticated, understand the game 213 00:10:47,988 --> 00:10:50,028 Speaker 1: just as much as they do in the States, honestly, 214 00:10:50,468 --> 00:10:52,988 Speaker 1: and I think that's a credit to the media, to 215 00:10:53,108 --> 00:10:57,468 Speaker 1: the games, to the fans themselves. It's just you've seen 216 00:10:57,548 --> 00:10:59,988 Speaker 1: the game explode so Roger. You you're going to be 217 00:11:00,028 --> 00:11:02,268 Speaker 1: at Alliance on Sunday. We know your team will try 218 00:11:02,308 --> 00:11:04,268 Speaker 1: to jam pack your days full of business and the 219 00:11:04,428 --> 00:11:06,388 Speaker 1: short window that you're here. But since you know Germany 220 00:11:06,428 --> 00:11:08,268 Speaker 1: so well, Munich, what are you going to do here 221 00:11:08,308 --> 00:11:10,228 Speaker 1: with minutes of free time that you might have? How 222 00:11:10,268 --> 00:11:12,668 Speaker 1: do you spend your time not focusing on football? What's 223 00:11:12,668 --> 00:11:14,948 Speaker 1: fun about this place? Well? I was listening to all 224 00:11:14,988 --> 00:11:17,108 Speaker 1: of you and our team was giving us all an 225 00:11:17,228 --> 00:11:19,628 Speaker 1: update last week and they were telling me about the 226 00:11:19,668 --> 00:11:22,108 Speaker 1: twenty one pubs. So I'm going for the twenty one 227 00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:26,468 Speaker 1: pub Oh man, I'll be your wing man. Good, I'll 228 00:11:26,508 --> 00:11:30,828 Speaker 1: take you. Don't have a good time last night? Haven't 229 00:11:30,828 --> 00:11:39,228 Speaker 1: you already gotten? You love? The last fixture? To remember 230 00:11:39,228 --> 00:11:42,388 Speaker 1: that I was there. You said a few weeks ago 231 00:11:42,748 --> 00:11:45,188 Speaker 1: that you could not envision a single team, but the 232 00:11:45,308 --> 00:11:49,148 Speaker 1: entire NFL maybe someday having some sort of bigger presence 233 00:11:49,388 --> 00:11:51,268 Speaker 1: here overseas, and that made a lot of news in 234 00:11:51,348 --> 00:11:53,108 Speaker 1: You said that in London, the talk was maybe a 235 00:11:53,188 --> 00:11:55,788 Speaker 1: division in Europe, maybe a team full time in here. 236 00:11:55,788 --> 00:11:57,828 Speaker 1: Just unpacking that comment, maybe a chance to ask you, 237 00:11:57,868 --> 00:12:00,028 Speaker 1: since like, what is the long term vision and is 238 00:12:00,028 --> 00:12:03,348 Speaker 1: there really a storyline and path that maybe hey, maybe 239 00:12:03,388 --> 00:12:05,108 Speaker 1: there's more of a permanent fix your overseas and we 240 00:12:05,148 --> 00:12:07,588 Speaker 1: think just these these regulatis and games here and there. Well, 241 00:12:07,628 --> 00:12:10,388 Speaker 1: I would tell you this objective is to make American 242 00:12:10,388 --> 00:12:13,348 Speaker 1: football a true global sport. So how we do that 243 00:12:13,468 --> 00:12:16,748 Speaker 1: is the question. Ultimately, that question came from a fan forum. 244 00:12:16,788 --> 00:12:20,548 Speaker 1: Actually a fan asked me that question, and the point 245 00:12:20,588 --> 00:12:22,908 Speaker 1: I was making with them is that I believe that London, 246 00:12:22,988 --> 00:12:25,868 Speaker 1: as an example, or the UK could easily host two 247 00:12:25,948 --> 00:12:29,068 Speaker 1: NFL teams today from a commercial standpoint, a fan standpoint, 248 00:12:29,188 --> 00:12:31,468 Speaker 1: no question. In my mind. The question that we have 249 00:12:31,588 --> 00:12:34,548 Speaker 1: to answer and be able to address if you did 250 00:12:34,668 --> 00:12:36,068 Speaker 1: have a team over here is how do you do 251 00:12:36,108 --> 00:12:39,148 Speaker 1: the competitive aspects of the game. Not the logistics, because 252 00:12:39,148 --> 00:12:41,308 Speaker 1: we'll figure that out as we have here. What we 253 00:12:41,348 --> 00:12:43,908 Speaker 1: have to figure out is particularly in the postseason, where 254 00:12:43,908 --> 00:12:46,588 Speaker 1: you can't really schedule around it. We don't know the 255 00:12:46,668 --> 00:12:50,268 Speaker 1: schedule until Sunday of the last weekend, so we were 256 00:12:50,308 --> 00:12:52,428 Speaker 1: really that's the one that we're really struggling with and 257 00:12:52,508 --> 00:12:54,188 Speaker 1: try to figure out how we could do that. There 258 00:12:54,188 --> 00:12:56,948 Speaker 1: are solutions, there are alternatives, not them are perfect, but 259 00:12:57,228 --> 00:12:59,948 Speaker 1: there's you know, when we started this, there were a 260 00:12:59,988 --> 00:13:02,508 Speaker 1: lot of compromises. We didn't think teams, there were a 261 00:13:02,548 --> 00:13:04,988 Speaker 1: lot of naysayers, say no, just right. The most teams 262 00:13:04,988 --> 00:13:07,948 Speaker 1: didn't want to come. Yeah, and now it's actually the opposite. 263 00:13:07,948 --> 00:13:10,748 Speaker 1: We you know, we've every team. When the Packers showed up, 264 00:13:10,868 --> 00:13:13,028 Speaker 1: that was our thirty second team, and it wasn't because 265 00:13:13,028 --> 00:13:15,148 Speaker 1: the Packers didn't want to do do It was because they're 266 00:13:15,188 --> 00:13:17,428 Speaker 1: as a visitian team. Nobody wanted to give them up. Yeah, 267 00:13:17,508 --> 00:13:19,468 Speaker 1: so if you had the Packers on your schedule, they 268 00:13:19,508 --> 00:13:21,468 Speaker 1: said no, no no, no, no, no, no, we want we 269 00:13:21,508 --> 00:13:24,028 Speaker 1: want them at home. So every team now has been here, 270 00:13:24,068 --> 00:13:27,028 Speaker 1: Every team wants to come back. Every team sees the 271 00:13:27,068 --> 00:13:29,468 Speaker 1: magic that I think is happening, and that's the great 272 00:13:29,468 --> 00:13:31,428 Speaker 1: thing for us. So that's what we want to build 273 00:13:31,468 --> 00:13:34,428 Speaker 1: off of. I truly believe that we're going to find 274 00:13:34,428 --> 00:13:36,988 Speaker 1: at least two cities that could host an NFL team 275 00:13:37,028 --> 00:13:40,068 Speaker 1: here in the near future. I believe that. I just 276 00:13:40,108 --> 00:13:42,788 Speaker 1: think you could just see the reaction and so, yeah, 277 00:13:42,828 --> 00:13:44,668 Speaker 1: it would it be easier to have four teams here 278 00:13:44,708 --> 00:13:48,068 Speaker 1: so that you could have interdivision games in less travel. 279 00:13:48,668 --> 00:13:51,068 Speaker 1: I think that could be a real possibility. We saw 280 00:13:51,148 --> 00:13:53,388 Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday by name to coach Joe. Would that interest 281 00:13:53,428 --> 00:13:55,108 Speaker 1: you being a coach here in Germany? Would you enjoy 282 00:13:55,428 --> 00:13:58,548 Speaker 1: we were selling hard? Peter wants to be the GM 283 00:13:58,908 --> 00:14:06,268 Speaker 1: want to be the coach development Jamie. Why don't you 284 00:14:06,308 --> 00:14:10,668 Speaker 1: just be your own commissioner, want to bring over here 285 00:14:10,668 --> 00:14:13,908 Speaker 1: and live over here amongst the people. I'm a strong 286 00:14:13,988 --> 00:14:17,028 Speaker 1: German heritage coach football and grow the game with you. 287 00:14:17,188 --> 00:14:20,468 Speaker 1: I think that's a really good I'm totally good Commissioner. 288 00:14:20,468 --> 00:14:22,668 Speaker 1: We have the Commissioner of Europe right yes, right there, 289 00:14:22,748 --> 00:14:25,828 Speaker 1: commission On a more serious note, Veteransday weekend. We know 290 00:14:25,908 --> 00:14:28,948 Speaker 1: how much we obviously that that weekend means for us 291 00:14:28,988 --> 00:14:31,108 Speaker 1: and for you personally. Just a note on just the 292 00:14:31,188 --> 00:14:33,548 Speaker 1: veterans in the way that the US and NFL, and 293 00:14:33,588 --> 00:14:36,068 Speaker 1: of course the military presence that we have embraced for 294 00:14:36,068 --> 00:14:38,988 Speaker 1: so many years. Yeah. I did um several things on Monday, 295 00:14:39,188 --> 00:14:42,748 Speaker 1: is part of our start of our service campaign, including 296 00:14:42,788 --> 00:14:44,708 Speaker 1: going to the Bob Wood your foundation that night. And 297 00:14:44,828 --> 00:14:48,388 Speaker 1: I think there's this connection with the military that I 298 00:14:48,428 --> 00:14:51,588 Speaker 1: can't describe. That we had cadets from West Point come in. 299 00:14:52,068 --> 00:14:54,228 Speaker 1: I think it was about thirty or forty cadets, men 300 00:14:54,268 --> 00:14:56,708 Speaker 1: and women who were looking to sort of see how 301 00:14:56,748 --> 00:14:59,508 Speaker 1: do I take the experience I have at the at 302 00:14:59,508 --> 00:15:02,748 Speaker 1: the West Point and use that into a career. And 303 00:15:02,868 --> 00:15:05,948 Speaker 1: you know, we talked about the connection football, and I said, 304 00:15:05,988 --> 00:15:08,748 Speaker 1: I believe there's a real connection. None of us would 305 00:15:08,788 --> 00:15:10,668 Speaker 1: ever I know the players would be the first to say, 306 00:15:10,828 --> 00:15:12,908 Speaker 1: would say, we're putting ourselves in the shoes of the 307 00:15:13,028 --> 00:15:15,788 Speaker 1: military that are going out there and risking their lives 308 00:15:15,788 --> 00:15:19,788 Speaker 1: and fighting for our country. But there's a bond between 309 00:15:19,788 --> 00:15:22,388 Speaker 1: the two. And when I went on the USO tour 310 00:15:22,468 --> 00:15:25,148 Speaker 1: and I was two thousand and eight with Drew Brees 311 00:15:25,188 --> 00:15:27,908 Speaker 1: and Ocoman Eura and one we had the best time. 312 00:15:28,188 --> 00:15:30,548 Speaker 1: But you realize that you're you think you're going over 313 00:15:30,668 --> 00:15:33,828 Speaker 1: to sort of give them a break. But what happened 314 00:15:33,988 --> 00:15:36,668 Speaker 1: is it really all made us understand how important we 315 00:15:36,708 --> 00:15:40,308 Speaker 1: are to the military and what incredible people they are. 316 00:15:40,388 --> 00:15:44,108 Speaker 1: The sacrifices they and their families have, but the leadership 317 00:15:44,148 --> 00:15:46,788 Speaker 1: and the courage, the strength and the just is the 318 00:15:46,828 --> 00:15:49,428 Speaker 1: pride in our country. And to me, I walked away 319 00:15:49,468 --> 00:15:53,668 Speaker 1: with that. And every time we talk about Salute to Service, 320 00:15:53,868 --> 00:15:55,748 Speaker 1: it's the top of our game. I love it. I 321 00:15:55,748 --> 00:15:57,508 Speaker 1: think what you get from the alums of the military 322 00:15:57,548 --> 00:16:01,188 Speaker 1: Academy is just a commitment competition, but like their teamwork 323 00:16:01,228 --> 00:16:03,988 Speaker 1: first and foremost as a personality trait is just incredible. 324 00:16:04,548 --> 00:16:08,028 Speaker 1: We have these five years here.

More good Morning Football, Come 341 00:17:01,508 --> 00:17:26,148 Speaker 1: in your way. Mad Minute parton what is two by 342 00:17:26,268 --> 00:17:29,188 Speaker 1: Mad Minute by Week ten officially kicked off last night 343 00:17:29,468 --> 00:17:31,228 Speaker 1: and we've got a great slate of games coming to 344 00:17:31,268 --> 00:17:33,668 Speaker 1: do on Sunday after the first ever games we played 345 00:17:33,708 --> 00:17:36,748 Speaker 1: regular season game played in Munich, Germany. But let's start 346 00:17:36,908 --> 00:17:39,228 Speaker 1: with the Green Bay Packers. They're trying to turn their 347 00:17:39,228 --> 00:17:41,028 Speaker 1: season around. They're going to hope to do that against 348 00:17:41,068 --> 00:17:43,188 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. What are we looking forward in this game, Peter? 349 00:17:43,388 --> 00:17:45,868 Speaker 1: I think this is cool that Ezekiel Elliott is back, 350 00:17:45,908 --> 00:17:47,988 Speaker 1: and it's like we haven't seen Zeke in weeks, and 351 00:17:48,028 --> 00:17:50,268 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have won some games and they've made it happen, 352 00:17:50,348 --> 00:17:52,708 Speaker 1: but now you get rested Zeko and into Green Bay 353 00:17:52,708 --> 00:17:54,268 Speaker 1: and this is the place where you know, the Cowboys 354 00:17:54,268 --> 00:17:55,908 Speaker 1: have not had a lot of success against the Packers 355 00:17:55,948 --> 00:17:58,148 Speaker 1: historically and certainly in the Rogers era, and I just 356 00:17:58,148 --> 00:18:01,108 Speaker 1: feel like the Cowboys heavy favorites. With Mike McCarthy as 357 00:18:01,108 --> 00:18:03,028 Speaker 1: the coach and now a healthy Zeke, a healthy Dac, 358 00:18:03,228 --> 00:18:05,188 Speaker 1: this might be the version of la Weeks should be 359 00:18:05,188 --> 00:18:07,308 Speaker 1: seeing in December and January. Get a nice preview of 360 00:18:07,308 --> 00:18:09,468 Speaker 1: that here. Yeah, you talked about in an eight o'clock hour, 361 00:18:09,548 --> 00:18:13,388 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Mike McCarthy, longtime quarterback, head coach. What is 362 00:18:13,388 --> 00:18:15,148 Speaker 1: the embrace going to be like? Before the game, they 363 00:18:15,148 --> 00:18:17,108 Speaker 1: said they've text this week. This is kind of the 364 00:18:17,148 --> 00:18:19,668 Speaker 1: battle within the battle that's going on. So I want 365 00:18:19,668 --> 00:18:21,108 Speaker 1: to see. You know, the cameras are going to be 366 00:18:21,108 --> 00:18:22,948 Speaker 1: following them throughout, so I want to see what those 367 00:18:22,948 --> 00:18:25,588 Speaker 1: interactions are like. Dallas has the best pass rush in 368 00:18:25,628 --> 00:18:29,508 Speaker 1: the NFL. Green based offensive line not so good this season. 369 00:18:29,548 --> 00:18:31,428 Speaker 1: I think you're going to see Aaron Rodgers outside the 370 00:18:31,428 --> 00:18:34,588 Speaker 1: pocket a lot, some by design and some just because 371 00:18:34,588 --> 00:18:36,828 Speaker 1: he's rush or running for his life. I'm kind of 372 00:18:36,828 --> 00:18:39,708 Speaker 1: curious to see what kind of campaign the Dallas Cowboys 373 00:18:39,708 --> 00:18:43,268 Speaker 1: put on offensively to entice Odell Beckham Junior nice I 374 00:18:43,348 --> 00:18:45,588 Speaker 1: like that. I don't know. They might just say like 375 00:18:45,748 --> 00:18:48,908 Speaker 1: come here, come here, basic Greenway hackers. It's an NFC 376 00:18:48,988 --> 00:18:52,228 Speaker 1: West showdown between the Cardinals and the Rams in Los Angeles. 377 00:18:52,348 --> 00:18:54,428 Speaker 1: Ian Rapport's been keeping us up to date with all 378 00:18:54,508 --> 00:18:56,948 Speaker 1: the quarterback injuries in this game. What's to look for, Jack. 379 00:18:57,188 --> 00:18:59,508 Speaker 1: There's a chance we may not see either starting quarterback, 380 00:18:59,708 --> 00:19:02,188 Speaker 1: but the loser of this game will be a last 381 00:19:02,508 --> 00:19:05,468 Speaker 1: place in their division. These are two teams that came 382 00:19:05,508 --> 00:19:08,988 Speaker 1: into this season with very high expectations, chasing a Super 383 00:19:08,988 --> 00:19:11,428 Speaker 1: Bowl for the Rams, repeating for the Cardinals, trying to 384 00:19:11,428 --> 00:19:15,188 Speaker 1: correct the playoff collapse last year. Last in the division 385 00:19:15,348 --> 00:19:18,188 Speaker 1: in November is not where either one of these teams 386 00:19:18,188 --> 00:19:20,108 Speaker 1: want to be. They need to win to have some 387 00:19:20,188 --> 00:19:22,988 Speaker 1: hope to salvage this season. Yeah, obviously, the quarterback situation, 388 00:19:23,068 --> 00:19:25,348 Speaker 1: that's what we're watching. I want to watch my boy, 389 00:19:25,548 --> 00:19:28,908 Speaker 1: Danny Boy McCoy, the backup quarterback for the Cardinals, who's 390 00:19:28,948 --> 00:19:32,308 Speaker 1: been tremendous throughout his career, stepping in for an injured 391 00:19:32,348 --> 00:19:34,748 Speaker 1: starting quarterback ahead of him. If he plays, i'd still 392 00:19:34,748 --> 00:19:36,828 Speaker 1: take Why do you call Danny boy? What is it? 393 00:19:36,868 --> 00:19:39,708 Speaker 1: Because he was a rookie when we were veterans, and 394 00:19:39,948 --> 00:19:41,788 Speaker 1: we always called him Danny boy, and we called him 395 00:19:41,788 --> 00:19:44,308 Speaker 1: Fanny boy because he's got that nice booty for a quarterback, 396 00:19:44,548 --> 00:19:47,388 Speaker 1: he's got that bubble booty. So he was always Fanny 397 00:19:47,468 --> 00:19:51,468 Speaker 1: Danny Boy McCoy. That's the locker room talk. What though 398 00:19:51,548 --> 00:19:53,948 Speaker 1: dead serious? Like, if you tell me Kyler can't run, 399 00:19:54,108 --> 00:19:56,388 Speaker 1: I might rather have Coulton McCoy under center for a game. 400 00:19:56,428 --> 00:19:58,068 Speaker 1: I hope the Coulton McCoy might give you a better 401 00:19:58,108 --> 00:20:00,588 Speaker 1: chance to win than an injured Kyler Murray who can't 402 00:20:00,668 --> 00:20:03,588 Speaker 1: use his athletic ability outside the pocket. Both teams desperate 403 00:20:03,588 --> 00:20:05,268 Speaker 1: for a win, and I would never count out called 404 00:20:05,308 --> 00:20:07,148 Speaker 1: McCoy two and one as a starter for the Arizona 405 00:20:07,148 --> 00:20:08,908 Speaker 1: Cardinal seater. I'm gonna double back to you, you know, 406 00:20:08,948 --> 00:20:11,348 Speaker 1: Sean McVay. Well, the Rams are being outscored in the 407 00:20:11,388 --> 00:20:13,628 Speaker 1: fourth quarter of seventy one to ten. What was happening 408 00:20:13,668 --> 00:20:15,548 Speaker 1: with the team? It's not good. It's not good. It's 409 00:20:15,548 --> 00:20:17,508 Speaker 1: not good. They're trying to figure things out with different 410 00:20:17,508 --> 00:20:20,468 Speaker 1: personnel packages, different responsibilities with the coaching staff, and they 411 00:20:20,468 --> 00:20:22,788 Speaker 1: are coming up empty. They've got it still a wide 412 00:20:22,788 --> 00:20:24,828 Speaker 1: open season for the rest of the though. They're not eliminated, 413 00:20:24,828 --> 00:20:28,268 Speaker 1: but it is not looking good. In frustrating absolutely. Finally, 414 00:20:28,388 --> 00:20:30,748 Speaker 1: in California, we have a battle on Sunday night football 415 00:20:30,748 --> 00:20:33,948 Speaker 1: between the Chargers and the Niners up in San Francisco. 416 00:20:34,148 --> 00:20:36,468 Speaker 1: Intrigue about this game, Joe, Yeah, I want to see 417 00:20:36,508 --> 00:20:38,388 Speaker 1: the Chargers defense. You know, we all thought they were 418 00:20:38,388 --> 00:20:40,188 Speaker 1: going to be one of the best defenses in the 419 00:20:40,308 --> 00:20:42,988 Speaker 1: NFL coming into the season. They really haven't done a 420 00:20:43,068 --> 00:20:46,108 Speaker 1: whole lot. They've been very disappointing. Even with the addition 421 00:20:46,148 --> 00:20:47,748 Speaker 1: of Khalil Mack. How are they gonna be able to 422 00:20:47,748 --> 00:20:49,948 Speaker 1: handle Christian McCaffrey. You know, he's been such a weapon 423 00:20:50,028 --> 00:20:52,788 Speaker 1: since he got traded from the Carolina Panthers, and Kyle 424 00:20:52,828 --> 00:20:56,228 Speaker 1: Shanahan now in several weeks in the system is getting 425 00:20:56,308 --> 00:20:58,348 Speaker 1: him involved even more. And it's fun to see the 426 00:20:58,348 --> 00:21:01,908 Speaker 1: creative ways at Kyle's using Christian McCaffrey to take advantage 427 00:21:02,188 --> 00:21:04,868 Speaker 1: of weaknesses on their defense. Niners can sit back and 428 00:21:04,948 --> 00:21:07,308 Speaker 1: watching the early morning windows, what happens with the Bucks 429 00:21:07,308 --> 00:21:08,868 Speaker 1: and the Seahawks. Then you get this chair, you know 430 00:21:08,908 --> 00:21:10,788 Speaker 1: this Cardinals Rams game, and then they can sit back. 431 00:21:11,108 --> 00:21:14,108 Speaker 1: They win this game. They are going into Monday feeling like, wait, 432 00:21:14,148 --> 00:21:15,908 Speaker 1: we're the best team in the division. We can do this. 433 00:21:15,948 --> 00:21:17,468 Speaker 1: We watch the other teams, we can do it. I 434 00:21:17,508 --> 00:21:19,708 Speaker 1: think San Francisco is a ball of fire right now, 435 00:21:19,748 --> 00:21:21,508 Speaker 1: a ton of momentum. I wouldn't want to face them 436 00:21:21,548 --> 00:21:23,948 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, you mentioned Christian McCaffrey. They're coming off 437 00:21:23,948 --> 00:21:26,348 Speaker 1: to a bye week. Deeble Samuel should be healthy, should 438 00:21:26,388 --> 00:21:29,228 Speaker 1: be out there. Kyle Shanahan. Now, he asked Christian McCaffrey, 439 00:21:29,228 --> 00:21:32,028 Speaker 1: will we watch run from one throw from one catch one? 440 00:21:32,068 --> 00:21:35,028 Speaker 1: And now, Deebo Samuel, you mentioned it when the trade happened. 441 00:21:35,068 --> 00:21:38,708 Speaker 1: Positionless football. These two guys define that. How is he 442 00:21:38,708 --> 00:21:40,548 Speaker 1: going to deplore them? And how is a team like 443 00:21:40,588 --> 00:21:42,028 Speaker 1: the Charge is going to be able to stop those 444 00:21:42,028 --> 00:21:44,628 Speaker 1: two gods? Absolutely. The final game that we want to 445 00:21:44,628 --> 00:21:47,788 Speaker 1: touch on this Sunday is when Indianapolis and the Colts 446 00:21:47,828 --> 00:21:49,588 Speaker 1: traveled to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders. A 447 00:21:49,628 --> 00:21:52,868 Speaker 1: couple weeks ago, Jeff Saturday tweeted the Raiders look not great. Well, 448 00:21:52,868 --> 00:21:54,828 Speaker 1: now he's the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts and 449 00:21:54,828 --> 00:21:56,988 Speaker 1: he asked to prepare for them make his debut with 450 00:21:57,028 --> 00:21:59,228 Speaker 1: a headset on. Here's what he had to say about 451 00:21:59,268 --> 00:22:03,748 Speaker 1: those who have questioned his credentials in this decision. I'm 452 00:22:03,788 --> 00:22:06,388 Speaker 1: completely comfortable and who I am as a man. Bro. 453 00:22:06,508 --> 00:22:08,308 Speaker 1: I know I can lead men. I know I know 454 00:22:08,348 --> 00:22:10,428 Speaker 1: the game of football, and I'm passionate about it. I 455 00:22:10,508 --> 00:22:13,628 Speaker 1: have no fear about are you was qualified as somebody else? Bro? 456 00:22:13,668 --> 00:22:16,068 Speaker 1: I spent fourteen years in the locker room. I went 457 00:22:16,108 --> 00:22:18,828 Speaker 1: to the playoffs twelve times. I got five dudes in 458 00:22:18,868 --> 00:22:20,348 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame that played with You don't think 459 00:22:20,348 --> 00:22:23,028 Speaker 1: I've seen greatness. You don't think I've seen how people prepare, 460 00:22:23,068 --> 00:22:26,148 Speaker 1: how they coach, how they gm how they work. I mean, 461 00:22:26,228 --> 00:22:28,628 Speaker 1: one super Bowl has been to too. Like, here's the 462 00:22:28,668 --> 00:22:30,668 Speaker 1: deal man. None of us are promised a good job. 463 00:22:30,988 --> 00:22:33,108 Speaker 1: I may be terrible at this, and after eight games 464 00:22:33,108 --> 00:22:36,028 Speaker 1: I'll say, God bless you. I am no good. I 465 00:22:36,148 --> 00:22:38,068 Speaker 1: may be really good at it. I got no idea, 466 00:22:38,108 --> 00:22:39,908 Speaker 1: but I dang sure ain't gonna back down. I can 467 00:22:39,988 --> 00:22:43,428 Speaker 1: tell you that. All right. As he's talking, we've seen 468 00:22:43,468 --> 00:22:45,308 Speaker 1: this down before, Like we are on the set debating 469 00:22:45,348 --> 00:22:47,468 Speaker 1: about this and just the decision and what it's been 470 00:22:47,548 --> 00:22:49,108 Speaker 1: like for the Colts the last couple of weeks. I 471 00:22:49,148 --> 00:22:50,788 Speaker 1: want to start with these two guys who have played 472 00:22:50,788 --> 00:22:53,948 Speaker 1: on good teams, bad teams, hard times, great times. The 473 00:22:53,988 --> 00:22:55,868 Speaker 1: Colts just lost three games in a row. Your head 474 00:22:55,868 --> 00:22:57,708 Speaker 1: coach has been fired, and now you have an interim 475 00:22:57,708 --> 00:22:59,988 Speaker 1: head coach that comes in was never on the original 476 00:23:00,028 --> 00:23:02,948 Speaker 1: coaching staff. Saw I'm on ESPN probably talking about your team. 477 00:23:03,028 --> 00:23:06,268 Speaker 1: Now he's leading you in this game on Sunday. Players, standpoint, Joe, 478 00:23:06,348 --> 00:23:09,428 Speaker 1: how do you handle this when you hire your drinking 479 00:23:09,468 --> 00:23:12,428 Speaker 1: buddy to be the head coach of an NFL football team. 480 00:23:12,548 --> 00:23:14,908 Speaker 1: It is one of the most disrespectful things I've ever 481 00:23:14,908 --> 00:23:18,148 Speaker 1: seen in my entire life to the commitment, the lifestyle, 482 00:23:18,348 --> 00:23:21,348 Speaker 1: and the experience that it takes to be an NFL coach, 483 00:23:21,588 --> 00:23:26,068 Speaker 1: any coach, much less the head coach of the Indianapolis 484 00:23:26,068 --> 00:23:29,188 Speaker 1: Football Colts. You have got to be kidding me that 485 00:23:29,348 --> 00:23:32,868 Speaker 1: this is something that Jim Ersey and Jeff Saturday, who's 486 00:23:32,868 --> 00:23:35,348 Speaker 1: not blameless for accepting the job, could have talked and 487 00:23:35,468 --> 00:23:38,548 Speaker 1: decided that this was the best thing for the Indianapolis 488 00:23:38,588 --> 00:23:41,788 Speaker 1: Colts at this juncture of the season. I'm going to 489 00:23:41,828 --> 00:23:43,588 Speaker 1: tell you a quick story. I lived right next door 490 00:23:43,668 --> 00:23:45,708 Speaker 1: to Rob Chidzinski. He was our head coach for one 491 00:23:45,748 --> 00:23:48,188 Speaker 1: season in Cleveland. The commitment that it takes to be 492 00:23:48,228 --> 00:23:50,588 Speaker 1: a head coach in the NFL is beyond what people 493 00:23:50,628 --> 00:23:53,468 Speaker 1: can even comprehend unless you've been in that locker room. 494 00:23:53,788 --> 00:23:58,228 Speaker 1: He saw his children one time every week. That was 495 00:23:58,308 --> 00:24:01,748 Speaker 1: Friday afternoon. We would get off about two o'clock. He 496 00:24:01,788 --> 00:24:03,828 Speaker 1: would stay till three. He would pick his kids up 497 00:24:03,868 --> 00:24:05,908 Speaker 1: from school. He had four kids. He would go get 498 00:24:05,948 --> 00:24:08,188 Speaker 1: ice cream with them, they would come home, then he 499 00:24:08,188 --> 00:24:10,148 Speaker 1: would drop them off and go back to the office. 500 00:24:10,628 --> 00:24:12,668 Speaker 1: If it was a home game, he would get to 501 00:24:12,708 --> 00:24:15,548 Speaker 1: see his kids two times during the week, ice cream 502 00:24:15,548 --> 00:24:19,028 Speaker 1: on Friday and then Saturday afternoon. He still didn't see 503 00:24:19,068 --> 00:24:21,908 Speaker 1: him because he stayed Sunday. They would come to the game, 504 00:24:21,988 --> 00:24:24,908 Speaker 1: he would drive them home after the game, drop them off, 505 00:24:25,148 --> 00:24:27,828 Speaker 1: and go back to the office. That's a lifestyle, that's 506 00:24:27,868 --> 00:24:30,428 Speaker 1: who you are. That's not something that you can just 507 00:24:30,868 --> 00:24:33,428 Speaker 1: show up for. It's not something you sign up for. 508 00:24:34,428 --> 00:24:36,908 Speaker 1: This is something that changes your life when you decide 509 00:24:36,908 --> 00:24:38,268 Speaker 1: to be a coach. It's one of the reasons I 510 00:24:38,268 --> 00:24:40,228 Speaker 1: don't want to coach because I want to see my children. 511 00:24:40,428 --> 00:24:42,548 Speaker 1: I want to have a life outside of football. When 512 00:24:42,588 --> 00:24:44,828 Speaker 1: you're a coach in the NFL, you do not have 513 00:24:44,868 --> 00:24:47,068 Speaker 1: a life outside of football. Why do you think coaches 514 00:24:47,108 --> 00:24:49,108 Speaker 1: never retire? What are they going to do? They haven't 515 00:24:49,148 --> 00:24:51,668 Speaker 1: developed any other parts of their life. They don't have hobbies, 516 00:24:51,788 --> 00:24:53,468 Speaker 1: They don't have a lot of other friends outside of 517 00:24:53,588 --> 00:24:57,428 Speaker 1: their football world. Because you live football your children. If 518 00:24:57,668 --> 00:24:59,348 Speaker 1: you're lucky enough to be able to coach with them, 519 00:24:59,348 --> 00:25:02,748 Speaker 1: like coach Belichick Shanahan, then you get to have that relationship, 520 00:25:02,788 --> 00:25:06,228 Speaker 1: Pee Carroll. But outside of that, it's a different lifestyle 521 00:25:06,268 --> 00:25:09,708 Speaker 1: because it's who you are. So the disrespect that NFL 522 00:25:09,748 --> 00:25:12,108 Speaker 1: coaches have to feel when they saw that this higher 523 00:25:12,268 --> 00:25:15,148 Speaker 1: was made is higher than almost anything I can ever 524 00:25:15,308 --> 00:25:18,828 Speaker 1: possibly remember in the NFL. And then to defend the 525 00:25:18,828 --> 00:25:21,948 Speaker 1: decision by saying, I'm happy that he doesn't have any 526 00:25:22,028 --> 00:25:25,908 Speaker 1: experience because he's not scared, like if you didn't already 527 00:25:25,908 --> 00:25:28,628 Speaker 1: insult every person that's worked their entire life to be 528 00:25:28,668 --> 00:25:30,628 Speaker 1: a head coach in the NFL. Then to go up 529 00:25:30,628 --> 00:25:32,628 Speaker 1: there and say, I like that he's got no experience, 530 00:25:32,668 --> 00:25:35,948 Speaker 1: because all your NFL coaches are scared because you use 531 00:25:36,028 --> 00:25:40,028 Speaker 1: logic and analytics to make decisions. I was happily eating 532 00:25:40,068 --> 00:25:42,788 Speaker 1: some fine French food and drinking French wine because I 533 00:25:42,788 --> 00:25:44,508 Speaker 1: was in France with my kids earlier in the week. 534 00:25:44,668 --> 00:25:46,508 Speaker 1: But when I saw this, I thought it was a joke. 535 00:25:46,628 --> 00:25:49,148 Speaker 1: I thought maybe I had a little Google translat and 536 00:25:49,148 --> 00:25:51,028 Speaker 1: I all of a sudden, I'm in the wrong calendar 537 00:25:51,028 --> 00:25:52,948 Speaker 1: and SA April first or something going on. It was 538 00:25:52,988 --> 00:25:56,228 Speaker 1: the most egregious thing I can ever remember happening in 539 00:25:56,268 --> 00:26:00,788 Speaker 1: the NFL. And I went one in thirty one I'm 540 00:26:00,788 --> 00:26:04,268 Speaker 1: sorry I got a little excited there, but it was insulting. 541 00:26:04,508 --> 00:26:07,548 Speaker 1: You're saying what everybody's thinking, essentially, and I think even 542 00:26:07,548 --> 00:26:09,868 Speaker 1: to the point where you said that, we've talked about 543 00:26:09,908 --> 00:26:12,508 Speaker 1: guys that have played the game and want to get 544 00:26:12,548 --> 00:26:17,308 Speaker 1: into coaching and our interns to go in. You're walking 545 00:26:17,428 --> 00:26:18,868 Speaker 1: the building, you say, I want to be the offensive 546 00:26:18,908 --> 00:26:20,748 Speaker 1: line coach, and there's coaches that will say to you 547 00:26:20,868 --> 00:26:22,868 Speaker 1: a head coach like Joe, like we love you, we 548 00:26:22,908 --> 00:26:24,748 Speaker 1: want you to be here, but like you can't just 549 00:26:24,828 --> 00:26:27,428 Speaker 1: step in and run an entire room, like we want 550 00:26:27,428 --> 00:26:29,308 Speaker 1: you to have to go through the process to be 551 00:26:29,428 --> 00:26:33,148 Speaker 1: a position coach. There's no process, and he is the 552 00:26:33,588 --> 00:26:36,028 Speaker 1: head coach, and I think to your point, I can't 553 00:26:36,028 --> 00:26:39,348 Speaker 1: even understand why he would want to take on that job. 554 00:26:39,388 --> 00:26:41,708 Speaker 1: And then obviously, in that pressure we just watched, he's 555 00:26:41,748 --> 00:26:45,548 Speaker 1: defending himself because us included and everybody else. Probably that's 556 00:26:45,588 --> 00:26:48,068 Speaker 1: probably like I believe in myself and I believe in 557 00:26:48,068 --> 00:26:49,788 Speaker 1: what I can do, but we're all sitting here like, 558 00:26:49,828 --> 00:26:51,988 Speaker 1: I mean, my goodness, I'm sure Jeff Saturday is a 559 00:26:51,988 --> 00:26:53,868 Speaker 1: great guy. I don't know him personally. You watch him 560 00:26:53,908 --> 00:26:55,748 Speaker 1: on TV as an analysts. I've played against him in 561 00:26:55,748 --> 00:26:58,468 Speaker 1: the NFL. But it's just like, why in the world 562 00:26:58,588 --> 00:27:00,708 Speaker 1: is all of this going on when there's so many 563 00:27:00,788 --> 00:27:03,588 Speaker 1: qualified people have paid their dudes and have done everything 564 00:27:03,628 --> 00:27:06,468 Speaker 1: they possibly can. And Eric Banamy or Ray Moore is 565 00:27:06,508 --> 00:27:08,588 Speaker 1: now who is the differenceive coordinator for a RAM so 566 00:27:08,708 --> 00:27:11,708 Speaker 1: many guys who are waiting their turn and it doesn't happen. 567 00:27:11,948 --> 00:27:14,548 Speaker 1: And Jeff Saturday goals from a high school coach consultant. 568 00:27:14,708 --> 00:27:17,388 Speaker 1: So now you're running the entire organization as the point 569 00:27:17,428 --> 00:27:20,548 Speaker 1: guy in the building that everybody runs underneath this, And 570 00:27:20,628 --> 00:27:22,988 Speaker 1: I would I would just add this. This is an 571 00:27:23,068 --> 00:27:26,028 Speaker 1: organization that are in the last three weeks told their 572 00:27:26,348 --> 00:27:28,828 Speaker 1: potential Hall of Fame quarterback you're done for the season 573 00:27:28,988 --> 00:27:31,108 Speaker 1: and you're out. Okay, sorry, we lost a couple of games. 574 00:27:31,148 --> 00:27:33,908 Speaker 1: You're out. They told their offensive coordinator Marcus Brady, who's 575 00:27:33,908 --> 00:27:36,748 Speaker 1: a rising star in this league, what does not call plays? 576 00:27:37,028 --> 00:27:39,028 Speaker 1: You're fired, Go home, pack your back, tell your family, 577 00:27:39,068 --> 00:27:41,188 Speaker 1: you know of a job anymore. It's your fault. And 578 00:27:41,228 --> 00:27:44,588 Speaker 1: then five days later, Frank Reich, you're five time coach. 579 00:27:44,668 --> 00:27:46,228 Speaker 1: You know you've been here, You've been great one all over, 580 00:27:46,228 --> 00:27:48,068 Speaker 1: You've one with the Eagle. You're fired. You're a great 581 00:27:48,108 --> 00:27:49,908 Speaker 1: man of faith, but you're fired. You're out of here, 582 00:27:50,028 --> 00:27:51,548 Speaker 1: and that the head coach is gonna be in my path. 583 00:27:51,548 --> 00:27:52,988 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a drinking buddy. I Thinkjim 584 00:27:52,988 --> 00:27:57,428 Speaker 1: Merseys a hundred year sober whatever buddy, but your point figuratively, 585 00:27:57,868 --> 00:28:00,948 Speaker 1: it's safe, it's warm. Give me a big, embraced, big guy. 586 00:28:01,148 --> 00:28:02,748 Speaker 1: I'm not a lot of player, amount of coach. I 587 00:28:02,828 --> 00:28:05,108 Speaker 1: talked to all the coaches. It really up disappointed. This 588 00:28:05,148 --> 00:28:07,068 Speaker 1: is how this went down. If this is how these 589 00:28:07,108 --> 00:28:10,348 Speaker 1: people on this set are considering this decision, and this 590 00:28:10,428 --> 00:28:12,268 Speaker 1: is the reaction that you get from guys who are 591 00:28:12,268 --> 00:28:14,708 Speaker 1: well removed from locker rooms, I cannot imagine what it 592 00:28:14,748 --> 00:28:17,188 Speaker 1: feels like to be sitting in your cubby in that 593 00:28:17,268 --> 00:28:19,508 Speaker 1: room when this decision is made and you have to 594 00:28:19,548 --> 00:28:21,388 Speaker 1: play the rest of the season for this person that 595 00:28:21,428 --> 00:28:23,388 Speaker 1: you just don't understand how this just happened if you're 596 00:28:23,388 --> 00:28:26,828 Speaker 1: in that locker room. By all accounts, everybody loved Frank, right, yeah, 597 00:28:27,508 --> 00:28:29,348 Speaker 1: so you get rid of the guy. I mean, I 598 00:28:29,348 --> 00:28:31,788 Speaker 1: played with Josh McCown. He was a big believer in 599 00:28:31,828 --> 00:28:34,388 Speaker 1: Frank Or he loved and be talked so glowingly about him. 600 00:28:34,508 --> 00:28:36,748 Speaker 1: You get rid of the guy that everybody really loves, 601 00:28:36,908 --> 00:28:39,388 Speaker 1: and then you make this move like how like. I 602 00:28:39,428 --> 00:28:42,268 Speaker 1: know Jeff is a great leader and he's got passion. 603 00:28:42,348 --> 00:28:44,668 Speaker 1: You could hear it in that interview, But there's more 604 00:28:44,708 --> 00:28:47,148 Speaker 1: to being an NFL coach than just standing up in 605 00:28:47,148 --> 00:28:49,788 Speaker 1: front of the room and given a good RaRo speech. 606 00:28:50,188 --> 00:28:53,268 Speaker 1: I've said it a bunch of times that just heard. 607 00:28:53,508 --> 00:28:55,628 Speaker 1: I don't. I didn't like the tone that Jeff Saturday 608 00:28:55,628 --> 00:28:57,668 Speaker 1: took on and in these two always kind of say 609 00:28:57,708 --> 00:29:00,188 Speaker 1: to me, it's his pride. People will questioning you. I 610 00:29:00,268 --> 00:29:03,228 Speaker 1: don't think he has the right to act so defensive 611 00:29:03,348 --> 00:29:06,068 Speaker 1: of the questions that little gimate questions. They're legitimate questions 612 00:29:06,108 --> 00:29:08,228 Speaker 1: as to why this went down. I think the only 613 00:29:08,308 --> 00:29:10,868 Speaker 1: way he can speak and answer those questions is to 614 00:29:10,948 --> 00:29:12,948 Speaker 1: how he handles himself on this team as a head 615 00:29:12,988 --> 00:29:17,148 Speaker 1: coach moving forward. Oh boy, could have a whole show. Yeah, 616 00:29:17,428 --> 00:29:21,028 Speaker 1: Tom Brady has arrived in Munich. He is practicing.
