Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: It is our one on Wednesday. It's the day before
Speaker 2: the day the NFL season opens up, and we have
Speaker 2: something special for you, well, something special for us. We
Speaker 2: hope it translates to something special for you. It's something
Speaker 2: called hot Dogs and hot Takes. Who has it better
Speaker 2: than we do?
Speaker 3: No, Boddy?
Speaker 2: Wait wait wait wait wait, that didn't come on. Let's go, Todd.
Speaker 2: I didn't even hear you. No, no, no, no, you
Speaker 2: have to do it again. Hey, it's our one on
Speaker 2: this Wednesday, the day before the day, and we have
Speaker 2: something for you.
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 2: Hot dogs and hot takes. Yeah, who is it better
Speaker 2: than we do? There you go, one single person?
Speaker 3: Yes, nobody.
Speaker 2: Hot Dogs and hot takes today coming up next hour,
Speaker 2: piping hot hot takes. This is the fourth annual. I
Speaker 2: don't even know if it is the fourth annual. We
Speaker 2: want to make it sound like we've been doing this
Speaker 2: a long time. This is where you can win the
Speaker 2: game and lose credibility all at the same time with
Speaker 2: a hot take, a couple of hot takes, you know,
Speaker 2: for instance, last year, one seat O'Connor said Lamar Jackson
Speaker 2: would be the MVP hot take. No, it was a
Speaker 2: real take and spot on. I do like that. When
Speaker 2: Seaton says Lamar Jackson MVP last year, Todd goes, I
Speaker 2: would have gotten murdered if I said that is my
Speaker 2: hot take.
Speaker 3: You would not. Why would you get.
Speaker 2: Crushed that a guy had already won a unanimous MVP
Speaker 2: could possibly win another MVP.
Speaker 5: I just I felt at that moment that I would
Speaker 5: have been You guys just would have went all over
Speaker 5: me for that.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 2: See, to be fair, Todd had just given possibly only
Speaker 2: one of his hot time takes, and we spent like.
Speaker 3: Five minutes making fun of it. Okay, what was it?
Speaker 2: And then I don't remember what it was. It was
Speaker 2: something about the Broncos. I think Broncos are finishing nine
Speaker 2: to seven and one or something like that. I would
Speaker 2: have road divisional playoff game, and the hell, all right,
Speaker 2: we'll bring back some of our hot takes from a
Speaker 2: year ago. And these guys wanted to have a food accompaniment,
Speaker 2: so we have hot dogs and hot takes. Let's go
Speaker 2: combing up today. Yeah, we got some mustard, butter and syrup,
Speaker 2: but hot takes.
Speaker 3: We're gonna happen. No, there's no hotcakes.
Speaker 5: We haveing hot dogs and hot cakes, hot take takes.
Speaker 5: I thought we're telling yesterday we were gonna be able
Speaker 5: to do like pancakes and hot dogs because of hot
Speaker 5: takes hotcakes.
Speaker 2: Unless I misunderstood you did, and it's called not listening.
Speaker 2: It was hot dogs, hot takes. This is where you
Speaker 2: get murdered for stupid things. Yes, okay, this is where
Speaker 2: we pile on.
Speaker 5: I searched the impression that we were hot dogs and
Speaker 5: pancakes together.
Speaker 3: All right, you make the pancakes.
Speaker 5: You guys wouldn't survive that with if you had me
Speaker 5: put the batter and everything in there.
Speaker 2: That's true. But that's why I would like for you
Speaker 2: to just go out there and do you know, take
Speaker 2: the first hour off some time, an hour two to
Speaker 2: do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, wow.
Speaker 2: Dan Orlovsky from the Mothership will join us in about
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes. Nobody's joining us an hour two on the program. Hey,
Speaker 2: maybe Dan Lebotard will join us again for that disaster
Speaker 2: that happened yesterday.
Speaker 5: Is that all about it?
Speaker 2: I have no idea, no idea. You were the one
Speaker 2: corresponding with Dan Levatard.
Speaker 5: Guest, you're talking to him for like three minutes, and
Speaker 5: then I'd even paying attention to what we're talking about.
Speaker 2: Coming soon. The Jalapanio Lime Moonshine. Early reviews mine say
Speaker 2: this flavor is outstanding. We'll let you know when you
Speaker 2: can order that. And once again, first come, first serve
Speaker 2: with Jlapanio Moonshine. It was one of those where I
Speaker 2: was like, hmm, I don't know, and then all of
Speaker 2: a sudden I had to taste and I went, oh,
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: Stat of the Day.
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Patani America, the official trading cards
Speaker 2: of this program. First down, we're brought to you by
Speaker 2: the great folks that Express Employment Professionals. They provide the
Speaker 2: workforce you need. With Express, you can lower labor cost,
Speaker 2: reduce turnover. Go to expresspros dot com to find the
Speaker 2: location nearest to you. That's expresspros dot Com. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 6: Now, to win the Hot Take game, it's not necessarily.
Speaker 6: You could win it in two different ways. You could
Speaker 6: win it day of and you can win it six
Speaker 6: months later. Like see O'Connor saying that Lamar Jackson win
Speaker 6: the MVP might not have been the hottest take of
Speaker 6: the game last year, but it sure worked out for
Speaker 6: him six months later.
Speaker 3: Yes, So like I.
Speaker 2: Didn't win the Hot Take game initially, I don't think
Speaker 2: he did. In the long run, he did win, right.
Speaker 6: Because his predictions, most of them came true. Now to
Speaker 6: win the hot Take game, like last year, if you
Speaker 6: would have said something wild, like you know what, I
Speaker 6: think the Cleveland Browns are going to make the playoffs
Speaker 6: and Joe Flacco is going to be the court back,
Speaker 6: that would win you the hot taking but no one
Speaker 6: would say that in the right mind.
Speaker 2: Or if I said somebody's gonna die, come back to life,
Speaker 2: die and come back to life, but not win the
Speaker 2: Comeback Player of the Year, you would have said that's crazy,
Speaker 2: Dan Wild.
Speaker 3: But it did happen.
Speaker 2: Yes, Sedan, I was gonna give one of my hot
Speaker 2: takes right now, but I shouldn't know. You gotta wait
Speaker 2: till next hour. Next hour, we don't have any guests,
Speaker 2: so we're gonna fill it up with let's just keep
Speaker 2: bringing that hot dogs and hot takes, hotcakes. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: thought we were having hot hotcakes.
Speaker 5: I was all excited about hot dogs and pancakes. That's
Speaker 5: so oddly wonderful.
Speaker 2: Eight seven seven three DP Show operator Tyler is sitting
Speaker 2: by to take your phone calls. Got a name maple
Speaker 2: syrup and butter for those hot cakes.
Speaker 5: I know what you guys like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 5: Sitting but hot dog?
Speaker 3: Never once?
Speaker 5: Why don't we do hot cakes?
Speaker 2: Which sometimes you hear what you want to hear, and
Speaker 2: that's what happened.
Speaker 5: You have waffles. You're not gonna be pick XO waffles.
Speaker 5: You're not gonna let me have the hot dog at the.
Speaker 3: Show's seven minutes in. Come on, we can do better
Speaker 3: than this.
Speaker 2: Maybe we can't be a good show.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 2: Then all of a sudden, social media, why do you
Speaker 2: guys always pick on Fritzy?
Speaker 3: Yeah, because we have to, we need I do.
Speaker 5: Tell them to write in on social media and flood
Speaker 5: to Twitter about that.
Speaker 2: I know you're the one who did come up with
Speaker 2: a suggestion box for this show. I did, and it
Speaker 2: was an anonymous with handwriting. We all know you're creepy
Speaker 2: handwriting and.
Speaker 5: My passive aggressive wording give it away as well.
Speaker 2: All right, we'll have a poll question seet and we'll
Speaker 2: do the honors. Phone calls are always welcome. Email address
Speaker 2: DPA Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle at TP show it'll
Speaker 2: be the Ravens and the Chiefs coming up tomorrow night.
Speaker 2: Ravens still getting three. This is where we overreact because
Speaker 2: do you remember last year the Lions beat the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, here come the Lions. Uh, the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: They're not going to repeat. Well, it's a long season.
Speaker 2: All you need to do is get into the postseason.
Speaker 2: We were correct about the Lions being real, and we
Speaker 2: were correct about the Chiefs still being dangerous. They end
Speaker 2: up winning. Now is it motivational? Is it pressure to
Speaker 2: try to repeat? I think it might be motivation. I
Speaker 2: don't find it pressure because nobody's done it before. And
Speaker 2: I don't know if people are still embracing the Chiefs
Speaker 2: and saying they are the team to beat because last
Speaker 2: year we watched them get embarrassed by the Raiders late
Speaker 2: in the season and we thought, wow, they are not
Speaker 2: going to repeat as champs. And then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: they did what they need to do.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: It was Mahomesy and again to the rescue, Travis Kelce,
Speaker 2: Isaiah Pacheco and a great defense, and now we have
Speaker 2: a team that could repeat.
Speaker 6: Here, yes, Pauli, I found some articles about the Chiefs
Speaker 6: last year at the end of September, they opened with
Speaker 6: the loss of the Lions, they just get by the
Speaker 6: Jacksonville Jaguars, and then in Game four, with no Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 6: they just squeak by the Jets. It was like the
Speaker 6: sky was falling, you know. And mahomes numbers last year
Speaker 6: were the worst of his His regular season numbers were
Speaker 6: by far the worst of his career. But it's don't
Speaker 6: you think they've entered the category of the Patriots ten
Speaker 6: years ago that if they're in they're the favorites.
Speaker 3: Yes, they'll find a way to win.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, but you know when you look at what
Speaker 2: Mahomes did now, I know he's on his own plateau,
Speaker 2: his own tier, but he didn't play great last year
Speaker 2: until he really needed to play great. But this was
Speaker 2: you know, you had Rashid Rice, Isaiah Pacheco. It felt
Speaker 2: like they had guys they were depending on that you
Speaker 2: wouldn't normally depend on. And Kelsey was wonderful when he
Speaker 2: needed to be. But that was really a defensive effort
Speaker 2: by Kansas City last year.
Speaker 3: That was what was amazing.
Speaker 2: Like, we give Mahomes credit for winning back to back titles,
Speaker 2: but it's real It's almost like it was that defense
Speaker 2: and then Mahomes after that, not the other way around.
Speaker 2: And normally we lead with the quarterback. They said, yeah,
Speaker 2: he led them to a championship. He knows how to
Speaker 2: close a game, and that, to me is invaluable. It's valuable.
Speaker 2: But trying to find that where you go that guy
Speaker 2: knows how to close out a game. Brady knew how
Speaker 2: to close out a game. How many quarterbacks in history
Speaker 2: know how to close out a game? And that's the difference.
Speaker 2: That's the difference between being great and an all time
Speaker 2: great and the greatest of all time. Winning those games.
Speaker 2: You might not have great numbers, and Mahomes's numbers in
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, you know, aren't mind boggling, but when
Speaker 2: you need to have a play, it just feels like
Speaker 2: game on the line. Every time Brady was playing in
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl, got the ball and he had to
Speaker 2: score a touchdown to win, I would just say he's
Speaker 2: going to and I think the defense he but even
Speaker 2: go back to when they face the Falcons, that was
Speaker 2: a foregone conclusion. I mean it really was, where you
Speaker 2: just going, He's gonna win the Super Bowl? Now you
Speaker 2: know he got help White scored the touchdown, but still
Speaker 2: you just said he's gonna win the game. Mahomes has
Speaker 2: that feeling of he's gonna find a way. It's Marianna Rivera,
Speaker 2: It's it is Enter Sandman, and it's ballgame lights out.
Speaker 2: All right, So we'll come up with the pole and
Speaker 2: well seton what's pole question? We're looking at first hour
Speaker 2: on the program, it's it's Hot Dogs and Hot Takes Wednesday.
Speaker 2: We can start semi negative number of coaches fired before
Speaker 2: the end of the season.
Speaker 3: Yah, let me wait on that.
Speaker 2: One two or fewer three or more two or fewer
Speaker 2: two or fewer, fewer two or fewer Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm looking at coaches who have left a job prior
Speaker 2: to the end of a season. Since twenty fourteen. There's
Speaker 2: a lot of coaches, man, a lot of coaches I
Speaker 2: don't even get to finish the job that you try
Speaker 2: to start.
Speaker 3: So we'll have that for you coming up as well.
Speaker 3: What else do we have?
Speaker 2: It feels like most seasons there's two or three coaches
Speaker 2: fired before the end of the season.
Speaker 3: Yeah, two or three, all right.
Speaker 2: I wonder if the over under is one and a
Speaker 2: half or would it be.
Speaker 3: Two and a half.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going two and a half.
Speaker 3: Two and a half.
Speaker 2: Maybe DraftKings has that. I mean, I hate to skew
Speaker 2: negative so early on the hot dogs and hot takes?
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, which is better? Hot dog job? Okay? All right,
Speaker 3: here we go. Would you rather have hot cakes today
Speaker 3: or hot dogs today?
Speaker 2: I should have asked this. I did a preemptive strike.
Speaker 2: I got a hold of Tyler last night. I said
Speaker 2: we need hot dogs, and he goes, okay, And then
Speaker 2: I came in and then I realized someone thought we
Speaker 2: were having hotcakes. Todd wants hotcakes. Seaton hot dogs are
Speaker 2: hotcakes with hot takes. I'm turning into more of a
Speaker 2: hot cake guy as I get older.
Speaker 3: But at hot dogs, okay, Marvin, hot dogs.
Speaker 6: I think Paulie both rhyme like hotcakes and hot takes
Speaker 6: would have also worked.
Speaker 3: But I'm going to be grateful for the hot dogs. Okay,
Speaker 3: thank you, Yes.
Speaker 5: And hotcakes over hot dogs that they were having them together.
Speaker 3: He wants both, which is great. No, that's that was
Speaker 3: a misunderstanding.
Speaker 2: You had a misunderstanding because you thought I said hot cakes,
Speaker 2: not hotcakes and hot dogs.
Speaker 5: And I'm happy with the hot dogs over hotcakes. You're
Speaker 5: just gonnain.
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't believe you, but you know that's what
Speaker 2: we're having hot dogs.
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, to give you example of a great hot
Speaker 6: take last year, imagine last year in the hot take game,
Speaker 6: we would have said someone has said Patrick Mahomes will
Speaker 6: not finish top five for at League MVP. That had
Speaker 6: been a scalding hot take coming off the season he
Speaker 6: had the year before. Yeah, he finished seventh for m
Speaker 6: VP last year. Okay, that's that would have been the scalding
Speaker 6: one last year.
Speaker 3: Overrated.
Speaker 2: Don't let Nick write here that he'll be calling up
Speaker 2: to defend his boy. My Super Bowl pick is tomorrow,
Speaker 2: I know, and man, it could get out of hand.
Speaker 2: It could get squirrely Chargers again. No, no it I
Speaker 2: I think I can be talked out of it.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 6: Historically, you think of a pick, yeah, then think of
Speaker 6: eight other picks and go back to your first pick.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I wish I would have done that on
Speaker 2: the SAT. I would have done better, but it didn't
Speaker 2: work out.
Speaker 3: No, it did not.
Speaker 2: Damn did I outsmart myself. I got numbers in the
Speaker 2: teens on my ACT and I I know, and then
Speaker 2: my mom goes, you need to apply yourself. And I said,
Speaker 2: all right, the next time, I'm not going to sleep,
Speaker 2: I'll stay out all night and go in and just
Speaker 2: take the test. And then I did better, and I said,
Speaker 2: I applied myself. Mom the night before, just stayed out,
Speaker 2: had some beverages, went in and took it at eight
Speaker 2: in the morning.
Speaker 3: All right, so we'll come up with the poll question here. Wait,
Speaker 3: did you come up with one seaton?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna go with that. Coaches one? Oh wait,
Speaker 2: we're skewing negative? Yeah, okay, how many? Way too much
Speaker 2: positivity flying around right now.
Speaker 3: I don't think so we'll pick the coach or coach it. No, oh,
Speaker 3: we have to. No, it's ugly, but you have to.
Speaker 2: I got already got one written down. First coach I
Speaker 2: think is getting fired.
Speaker 3: No offense? But is this you follfense?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, that was no offense. No whoa?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, okay, let's go.
Speaker 3: Let's rally. I don't know did well? All right, man,
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was good. I have a
Speaker 3: coach too, let's go.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that first segment was good. But
Speaker 2: you know what, Dan is gonna join us. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: make Orlovsky give us a couple of hot takes that
Speaker 2: are a little bit fun, you know what, Fritzy, maybe
Speaker 2: frame it that way because I don't want ky go.
Speaker 2: I don't want people to go, oh my gosh, you
Speaker 2: picked the Falcons to win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: We want some fun takes out of if you.
Speaker 5: Were already communicator and he set that to me by text, Yes, sir,
Speaker 5: he's ready with fun takes.
Speaker 2: Alrighty, let's take a break here, just getting started. Morale
Speaker 2: is high ish and uh. We'll talk to Dan Rolofsky
Speaker 2: from the mothership right after this.
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio

Speaker 7: We have a fantasy football podcast called I Want Your Flex.
Speaker 1: That's right Dan.
Speaker 8: Every week we're gonna scour the waiver wire to find
Speaker 8: the pickups to turbo boost your fantasy lineup, sit starts,

Speaker 7: Listen to I Want Your Flex with Mike Carmon and
Speaker 7: me Dan Byer on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts and
Speaker 7: wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2: We bring in Dan Rolofsky ESPN football Analysts part of
Speaker 2: NFL Live and they're extending it to two hours on
Speaker 2: Mondays this football season. Dano with Mark Spears, Ryan Clark,
Speaker 2: Meta Kaimes, Laura Ruttledge will be there for the Jets
Speaker 2: and Niners on Monday in Santa Clara three Eastern on ESPN.
Speaker 3: Great to have you back on. Are the Chiefs on
Speaker 3: scholarship this year?
Speaker 7: Meaning are we giving them a pass type of thing.
Speaker 2: Even if they have a slow start. They lost to
Speaker 2: the Lions last year opening night. You know, they could
Speaker 2: have lost to the Jets. I mean they struggled a
Speaker 2: little bit there. Mahomes didn't play great during the regular season.
Speaker 7: So yeah, so go back to last year. I don't
Speaker 7: think the Lions winning down there was that surprising, you know,
Speaker 7: just because the style of play. I do think the
Speaker 7: people being out in that game, Chris and Travis had
Speaker 7: their part. And then obviously the story of the season,
Speaker 7: which was one that everyone teetered back and forth on
Speaker 7: was it going to matter or not, was the drops
Speaker 7: in the penalties, And that was really why Patrick didn't
Speaker 7: play to Patrick's level and all that. So, you know,
Speaker 7: it's silly or it's odd to think that the team
Speaker 7: that won the Super Bowl is a better football team
Speaker 7: this year than they were last year. But I don't
Speaker 7: think it's even close that they're a better football team
Speaker 7: this year as long as Hollywood and Xavier Worthy or
Speaker 7: healthy players, because just the addition of speed now they got.
Speaker 7: I was saying this yesterday. I mean, Patrick is by
Speaker 7: far the best player in the NFL, right, most important
Speaker 7: player in the NFL. He's got a rookie starting at
Speaker 7: left tackle. I mean, you can make the case we
Speaker 7: often have the conversation who's under the most pressure in
Speaker 7: the NFL? That left tackle rookie from BYU Bob. You know,
Speaker 7: he's he's got a lot of pressure on him. So
Speaker 7: you know, we got to see what that looks like.
Speaker 7: But I do think if they play to you know,
Speaker 7: the way that the talent kind of aligns it, they'll
Speaker 7: be a better football team. So the expectation, you know,
Speaker 7: they're the team to be.
Speaker 2: But I wonder if it's pressure or motivation to try
Speaker 2: to repeat if I said pick one or the other
Speaker 2: for the Chiefs, is there pressure to threepeat or is
Speaker 2: it motivation to three p I think it's.
Speaker 7: An obsession to three p You know, I don't you
Speaker 7: know they are. Patrick has long been different when it
Speaker 7: comes to the way he viewed his career. I think
Speaker 7: that's why he took that long contract. The same with Travis,
Speaker 7: the same with Andy Reid. I think there's this obsession
Speaker 7: to go do it because no one's done it. I
Speaker 7: think for Patrick it he realizes that places me firmly
Speaker 7: into the conversation with Tom Brady, like because I've done
Speaker 7: something that he's never done. Obviously, Tom has the longevity
Speaker 7: in the seven. So I think there's an obsession within
Speaker 7: that group, within that organization to go get it done.
Speaker 7: I don't sense a ton of pressure. I think it's
Speaker 7: more them wanting to go do something that's never done before.
Speaker 3: When do you make your Super Bowl pick?
Speaker 7: I've made him already. I actually shared them to ESPN yesterday.
Speaker 2: Okay, who wants to guess Orlovsky's Super Bowl picks?
Speaker 5: Todd dani Alaski has the forty nine Ers beating the
Speaker 5: Chiefs and keeping them from the three people see.
Speaker 3: No Connor.
Speaker 2: Eagles Chiefs Eagles Chiefs.
Speaker 3: Marvin Chiefs forty nine ers. Okay, guys are boring, Paulie.
Speaker 6: I think he's got Ravens Niners.
Speaker 3: Ravens Niners. I think he's got the Lions in there.
Speaker 7: Lions who Lions, Chiefs who went second?
Speaker 3: It's Seaton.
Speaker 7: I got Chiefs Detroit, I think, yeah, Chiefs Chiefs Detroit. No,
Speaker 7: was that you, Dan, Chiefs Detroit? Yeah? I got Chiefs
Speaker 7: Detroit in the Super Bowl. I think I got the
Speaker 7: Chiefs winning, though. I took. My AFC championship game was
Speaker 7: Kansas City Houston, and then my NFC championship was Detroit Philly,
Speaker 7: I think, and I had Kansas City beating Detroit in
Speaker 7: the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: Give me this surprising team who doesn't make the playoffs.
Speaker 2: Start with the NFCIX.
Speaker 7: Surprising team he does not make the playoffs. I feel
Speaker 7: like I've been adamant about this. The Dallas Cowboys, I
Speaker 7: think is a injustifiably just because of all the different
Speaker 7: pieces excuse me, that are part of their football team.
Speaker 7: You know, there is obviously the narrative, the pressure of
Speaker 7: you know, the contract situation with certainly Dak and Mike McCarthy,
Speaker 7: but you know their offense is going to start two
Speaker 7: rookies and all counts seem to be like they're gonna
Speaker 7: be good players, but it's a different animal be and
Speaker 7: those guys on a consistent week to week basis. Their
Speaker 7: running back room is a lot left to be desired.
Speaker 7: Defensive tackles still a question. Inside linebackers still a question.
Speaker 7: The Deron Bland injury is still a big deal because
Speaker 7: he's gonna miss the first what four or five six games,
Speaker 7: So I think a lot of the defensive pieces are missing,
Speaker 7: specifically Dan Quinn as well. I think Washington can finish
Speaker 7: second in that division, so I would say the Dallas
Speaker 7: Cowboys are on. I think the NFC nor is gonna
Speaker 7: be the best division in football. So I don't think
Speaker 7: Dallas and green or Detroit and Green Bay miss it.
Speaker 7: But I think you could have a really good Minnesota
Speaker 7: Vikings team. Not get in type of thing.
Speaker 3: What about AFC?
Speaker 7: Yeah, the AFC, I think Kids City's in.
Speaker 3: You like Buffalo Dolphins, I.
Speaker 7: Don't like the Dolphins to get in. No, as much
Speaker 7: as I love their football team, the Dolphins are in
Speaker 7: a tough spot because it's gonna take them a little
Speaker 7: bit to start this season to get truly healthy We'll
Speaker 7: see where Jalob's Phillips, Jalen Phillips is. Jub's got to
Speaker 7: come back from the injury. Think a couple of pieces
Speaker 7: on their offensive line. But then in the assumption game
Speaker 7: where everyone or when everyone gets healthy. Their final eight
Speaker 7: games are absolutely treacherous like they're and you could you
Speaker 7: could be a good team and not win one. It's
Speaker 7: it's that daunt think of a schedule. So it doesn't
Speaker 7: set up well for them. So I could see Miami
Speaker 7: missing out. I think Buffalo makes it just because how
Speaker 7: Josh would be so great. But I've concerned with the
Speaker 7: Milano injury. Baltimore. I think Baltimore is fantastic, obviously, but
Speaker 7: Baltimore's got a lot of question marks. You know, you're
Speaker 7: replacing fifty percent of the best inside linebacker duo and ball,
Speaker 7: You're replacing three offensive lineman, you're replacing a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 7: They have my attention for sure.
Speaker 2: Danilovsky, ESPN Football Analyst, NFL Live expanding to two hours
Speaker 2: on Monday, starting at three Eastern as they will be
Speaker 2: on the road in Santa Clara.
Speaker 3: Jets and the forty nine.
Speaker 2: Ers, you have, the Jets are always going to be
Speaker 2: interesting with Rogers being there. They have a lot of talent.
Speaker 2: They did win seven games and they had zero quarterback play.
Speaker 3: Yeah, hard to.
Speaker 2: It feels like you're trying to troll people if you
Speaker 2: pick the Jets to be great this year, Like do
Speaker 2: you get that feeling? And it's a good roster And
Speaker 2: it really depends on I'm not comfortable with the coaching,
Speaker 2: but Rogers being healthy.
Speaker 7: I would say this, Dan, I don't think it's trulling
Speaker 7: because I would ask you, how are the Jets not
Speaker 7: good this year? If you just took the roster, the
Speaker 7: talent that they have, and we're honest about the talent,
Speaker 7: because that league is about talent, how do they not
Speaker 7: How are they not a good football team this year?
Speaker 7: You would say, Number one, some of the key d
Speaker 7: or pivotal pieces get hurt, you know, if Tyron Smith
Speaker 7: doesn't hold up. But then I would say, well, fashion
Speaker 7: who can maybe play there? Garrett Wilson gets hurt, God forbid?
Speaker 7: Or you know, Aaron Rodgers gets hurt again, God forbid.
Speaker 7: So you sit there and go, well, it's health. But
Speaker 7: then I could say that for everybody, and then well
Speaker 7: the coaching, offensive coaching, we can make we could have
Speaker 7: that conversation, but then you go, well, Aaron Rodgers, and
Speaker 7: he's got to give you some confidence that that won't
Speaker 7: be maybe as bad on the surface. So it's hard
Speaker 7: for me outside of health to see how the Jets
Speaker 7: aren't a good football team.
Speaker 2: And and also you go back to Buffalo, it feels
Speaker 2: I think Josh Allen's got second best MVP odds, and
Speaker 2: it feels like he might get more credit the better
Speaker 2: they are, because they may not be as loaded as now,
Speaker 2: they could be better. But I think with Dig's not there,
Speaker 2: I mean, we might look at Buffalo as an underdog
Speaker 2: instead of a favorite like we have in recent years.
Speaker 7: Yeah, because you know, the favorite of recent years I
Speaker 7: think was coming off of that AFC Championship game with
Speaker 7: Patrick and whatnot. It's hard for me to see joshuin
Speaker 7: MVP just because Josh, if you're not Patrick, you're everyone
Speaker 7: thinks you so type of thing. So you know, people
Speaker 7: are gonna find ways because Josh's style of play as well,
Speaker 7: I do think that they will be a more consistent offense.
Speaker 7: I do think that Josh is capable of becoming that
Speaker 7: second version of Patrick where he plays a little bit
Speaker 7: of that point guard mold. That's what's going to be necessary.
Speaker 7: It really comes down to their defense, and I don't
Speaker 7: want to minimize poy'er in Hyde were as good at
Speaker 7: duo as the NFL, and Milano's is spectacular. So you're
Speaker 7: talking about losing twenty five percent of your defense to
Speaker 7: really high end players. So I think they're still the
Speaker 7: favorite in that division. They are, but I want to
Speaker 7: see how the defense looks more so than the offense.
Speaker 3: Could Josh Allen change his style?
Speaker 7: No, and he doesn't have to. He doesn't have to,
Speaker 7: though he doesn't have to. And I have said this
Speaker 7: since I think we had this conversation maybe about you
Speaker 7: know what Cam Newton and Carson Wentz a little bit
Speaker 7: just onto the football field. Josh has a certain skill,
Speaker 7: a certain physical talent that if you don't play to
Speaker 7: that way, you're making him a lesser player. Over the
Speaker 7: course of time, you might have a game or two
Speaker 7: stretch where you adjust it because that's what's necessary. But
Speaker 7: over the course of time, you can't change that style
Speaker 7: of play, nor do you want to. Because the highs
Speaker 7: are as high as anybody, and there might be some
Speaker 7: lows along the road that you sit there and go
Speaker 7: God bless if this didn't happen. But you're not paying
Speaker 7: him for that, you didn't draft him for that, and
Speaker 7: you don't have a chance to win the Super Bowl
Speaker 7: because of it.
Speaker 3: What's your policy on starting rookie quarterbacks?
Speaker 7: The number one thing is are we capable of supporting
Speaker 7: them so they can survive? Are we capable? I think
Speaker 7: the rookies in the quarterback needs three things. They need
Speaker 7: a really good scheme and play caller together. They need
Speaker 7: a plus offensive line and plus skill group. I will
Speaker 7: always go back to if we looked at the rookie
Speaker 7: quarterbacks that have come in and played at a high level,
Speaker 7: I'll go to CJ. Stroud last year. Okay, did he
Speaker 7: have a plus scheme? Yes, the Kyle Shannan scheme, Bobby Slowank.
Speaker 7: We didn't know if he was a good play caller.
Speaker 7: Turns out he is. Did they have a plus offensive line? Yes,
Speaker 7: Now that scheme helps that offensive line because of the
Speaker 7: play action. And do they have plus skill group? Absolutely?
Speaker 7: That's why part of the reason why CJ. If you
Speaker 7: go to Dak Prescott in twenty sixteen had one of
Speaker 7: the greatest offensive lines in the history of football. He
Speaker 7: had Jason Whitten Hall of Famer, you had Dez Bryant.
Speaker 7: Maybe in the conversation for Hall of Fame, he had
Speaker 7: Ezekiel Elliott. So just remarkable support group, Ben Roethlisberger, Russe Wilson.
Speaker 7: So they all have those similar traits. So that's like
Speaker 7: the surrounding parts. Those three things got to be in place. Second,
Speaker 7: he has to have something about his game that allows
Speaker 7: him to survive early on and then thrive. It's either
Speaker 7: unbelievable processing, it's remarkable athleticism, it's lights out ball placement. Like,
Speaker 7: he's got to have something in his game. And I
Speaker 7: think the third thing is he better be You better
Speaker 7: be darn sure that he can handle the suck of it,
Speaker 7: the failure of it, because in college you're not often
Speaker 7: going to walk into that building on a morning being
Speaker 7: the reason you lost in the NFL. You will, and
Speaker 7: you better be able to handle that mentally.
Speaker 2: All Right, it's time for hot dogs and hot takes.
Speaker 2: You don't get the hot dogs, but it's time for
Speaker 2: you to provide us with a couple of wild predictions
Speaker 2: this year. Okay, Now, now you don't have to believe
Speaker 2: in it totally, but just okay, just something that.
Speaker 7: We can be convinced into it, all right, A little fun,
Speaker 7: a little fun, all.
Speaker 3: Right, So let's start in the NFC. Give me a
Speaker 3: hot take.
Speaker 7: Washington wins the NFC East. Okay, I think Jaden Daniels
Speaker 7: wins Rookie of the Year. Washington wins the NFC East.
Speaker 7: Philadelphia stumbles out of the gates and there's chaos in Philly,
Speaker 7: so I will start with that one. The second one
Speaker 7: is the NFC North gets three playoff teams in and
Speaker 7: it's not Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay, and Minnesota all make
Speaker 7: the NFC playoffs, and Sam Donald becomes, oh my gosh,
Speaker 7: Sam Donald doesn't stay get football conversation narrative?
Speaker 3: Pretty fun.
Speaker 7: The Los Angeles Rams win the NFC West. That's not
Speaker 7: that crazy, you know. San Francisco obviously the favorite. But
Speaker 7: the Rams win the NFC West. So I think those
Speaker 7: are probably but my my NFC ones.
Speaker 3: Okay, give me AFC down.
Speaker 7: Jacksonville wins the AFC South. You know, the whole conversation
Speaker 7: this off seasons Houston, Houston, Houston, Houston, Houston, and Tennessee
Speaker 7: gets Brian Callahan and Jacksonville hasn't been talked about a
Speaker 7: lot and Trevior Lawrence is in the MVP conversation, so
Speaker 7: finally takes that big giant leap. I have a fun
Speaker 7: one for the AFC West, but it's a little bit
Speaker 7: attached to college football as well AFC North. I'll sit
Speaker 7: there and say, well, I.
Speaker 2: Think that's it for the AFC that I have fun Wise, well,
Speaker 2: what's the AFC webs all Right?
Speaker 7: This is just like a hypothetically fun one.
Speaker 3: I could see it sounds like a harball, Yeah.
Speaker 7: I could so. I think I was big proponent of
Speaker 7: Antonio Pierce getting that job in Las Vegas, right, But
Speaker 7: I don't. I don't think they're gonna be a great
Speaker 7: football team, good defense, great football team. Hypothetically, they get
Speaker 7: into the back end of September October ish, they're not playing. Well,
Speaker 7: there's the future, doesn't look promising. Trade Davante to the
Speaker 7: New York Jets for a number one next year. They
Speaker 7: become the number one pick in next year's NFL draft.
Speaker 7: They pull a Houston Texans and they take at number
Speaker 7: one Shador and then at number find a way to
Speaker 7: use that second first round pick to get to number
Speaker 7: two and take Travis Hunter, and both of them go
Speaker 7: to Las Vegas.
Speaker 3: I'mbout a round of applause for dan Or last year
Speaker 3: that time.
Speaker 7: Yeah, man, I want that one to hit. I want
Speaker 7: that one to hit.
Speaker 3: Damn.
Speaker 2: I like that one and it's on the record. Now,
Speaker 2: it's not one of those. Hey you had a fun pick.
Speaker 2: Oh you actually believe the Raiders and this guy and
Speaker 2: this and this and this the dominoes that have to fall.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, that's I'm sure I'm gonna get a couple
Speaker 7: of social media ones off that. Now.
Speaker 2: Once again, this is just a hot take. This is
Speaker 2: having fun. Yeah, yes, don't want you to lose credibility, Dan,
Speaker 2: I don't want that. But if it hits it, yeah,
Speaker 2: absolutely absolutely you can take a victory lap us Save Travels.
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us as always, and we'll talk to

Speaker 2: picks here, he had some hot takes there. The Commanders
Speaker 2: winning the East. I like the Commanders probably. Okay, there's
Speaker 2: a couple of teams I might like more than I should.
Speaker 2: Falcons Commanders in the NFC, I like them. I like
Speaker 2: Jacksonville to win their division. There's there's just a couple
Speaker 2: of these teams where you go, I'm just not quite sure.
Speaker 3: You have to prove it to me.
Speaker 2: The Raiders trade with Davante Adams to the Jets, and
Speaker 2: Shudor Sanders and Travis Hunter Colorado and what that is wild?
Speaker 2: That's not one of those where you go, oh, let
Speaker 2: me see, here's a hot take. It's here's something I've
Speaker 2: been thinking of for quite some time that would be
Speaker 2: wild and Davante to the Jets. So my Super Bowl
Speaker 2: pick tomorrow. Next hour, it's hot dogs and hot takes.
Speaker 2: We'll go around the room. We'll bring back some of
Speaker 2: our hot takes from last year, including Seaton saying that
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson would be the MVP. I don't know if
Speaker 2: that's like crazy hot takes since he'd already won an MVP,
Speaker 2: but it did work out. And I don't know if
Speaker 2: you can be a unanimous pick as MVP and be
Speaker 2: surprised that you're going to be an MVP again. But
Speaker 2: I didn't hear anybody else make that prediction last year
Speaker 2: except for Seaton, so he gets to take the victory.
Speaker 3: Lamp. I think I hit.
Speaker 2: I hit three out of four.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if we're keeping score. Supposed to
Speaker 3: be just fun, yeah, not for me, just fun.
Speaker 7: Not for me.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to provide entertainment. You're trying to win something.
Speaker 2: Correct, I'm trying to win the room.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm trying to win the audience with content.
Speaker 2: At Desmond Ruder getting venched, called it.
Speaker 6: Esman murder helped you out so much.
Speaker 3: He's out of the league.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeh, benched and out of the league. Lions Texans
Speaker 2: winning ten games, No big deal.
Speaker 3: That's pretty good.
Speaker 2: Called it now that one that's impressive. Called it that's
Speaker 2: that's impressive. I had the Broncos winning the AFC West.
Speaker 2: That's impressive. Yeah, nobody else had that one, including the Broncos.
Speaker 2: Todd didn't even Todd had them.
Speaker 3: What nine? I love the one and a road playoff loss.
Speaker 9: I love that.
Speaker 3: I love that? All right, Andy and Florida, Andy, what's
Speaker 3: on your mind today?
Speaker 7: Hey?
Speaker 9: DP five eleven one seventy five?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 9: Anyway, So I got a way for you to do
Speaker 9: hot dogs and hot cakes on the same day, because
Speaker 9: so it sounds like a bad combination. But on the
Speaker 9: first night of Konica, my mom always made us hot
Speaker 9: dogs and potato pancakes. Okay, does that count as hot
Speaker 9: dogs and hot takes?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, I guess, but that's not part of the
Speaker 2: game that we're playing. But thank you Andy.
Speaker 5: Little Apple saw some sala cream on the side with
Speaker 5: the potato pancakes.
Speaker 2: Nicetas Yeah, yeah, okay said you're like one percent years
Speaker 2: here you go. When I did my twenty three and me,
Speaker 2: I was from an area and that I guess would
Speaker 2: be a Jewish area.
Speaker 3: It's a little blip on the swab on the stand,
Speaker 3: so they gave me a one percent.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 2: There was also like one percent or two percent West Africa.
Speaker 2: I don't know how to explain that. But then the
Speaker 2: other ones where you're just kind of looking through everything
Speaker 2: and you're like, oh, you're like a four percent Dutch
Speaker 2: or something like crazy.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Paul, we did h I know a few people
Speaker 6: did twenty three and me and that my in laws actually,
Speaker 6: who are all Polish and really embraced the Polish heritage
Speaker 6: and lifestyle. One of the brothers did at twenty three
Speaker 6: and me and found out they were nine percent Polish
Speaker 6: and like eighty percent Lithuanian. That was a total curveball
Speaker 6: in their lifestyle.
Speaker 2: Well, you have that credit card commercial whether their father
Speaker 2: and son are going to a country and they find
Speaker 2: out that they're not from that country.
Speaker 3: I think overseas something like.
Speaker 6: Switch mid stride. If you lived your whole life embracing
Speaker 6: a certain culture and then you found out, hey, guess
Speaker 6: what we're actually from blank.
Speaker 3: I think that I would probably just stay.
Speaker 2: You know what, I what I've been telling everybody, as
Speaker 2: opposed to, hey I got a secret here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that you know.
Speaker 2: The flip side of that was my twenty three A
Speaker 2: meter where they basically confirmed I was like ninety eight
Speaker 2: point nine percent Irish. They're like, that's it. That's pretty
Speaker 2: much all you got. There wasn't anything else even remotely
Speaker 2: interesting other than you're just pretty much straight up Irish.
Speaker 2: That's not as far back as you go. It'd be
Speaker 2: great if it came back you're one hundred and four
Speaker 2: percent Irish. Think you can not be anymore from this
Speaker 2: area of the world. That's where you come from.
Speaker 3: Bryant in Virginia, Hi Bryant, what's on your mind?
Speaker 10: KDP. Nice to be back on. Just a quick question
Speaker 10: talking about Mahomes. Obviously, he's been pretty dominant out.
Speaker 7: Of the gate.
Speaker 9: If he won this year, do you feel like he
Speaker 9: would be in that.
Speaker 10: Tiger Wood's dominance stays basically where maybe he's not the
Speaker 10: greatest of all times, but has the most dominant run.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2: Now you can look at the window where the Steelers
Speaker 2: won with Terry Bradshaw, the Niners won with Joe Montana,
Speaker 2: where you're winning four super bowls. Mahomes doing this before
Speaker 2: he's what twenty eight, that would probably be the greatest
Speaker 2: run that we've seen in modern football history for a quarterback.
Speaker 3: Mahomes in four super bowls in quarters one through three.
Speaker 2: Is okay, two touchdowns, three interceptions, seventy four point two
Speaker 2: passer rating, but four order and overtime complete almost sixty
Speaker 2: seven percent of his passes five touchdowns, two interceptions, passer
Speaker 2: rating is a little over one hundred. He's a closer
Speaker 2: and I think sometimes you think, boy, he had an
Speaker 2: unbelievable super Bowl, but he has it. He's had unbelievable
Speaker 2: or really clutch fourth quarters in overtime performances, and that's
Speaker 2: why he's won three Super Bowls. All right, Seaton, We're
Speaker 2: going to answer the pole question next hour because we
Speaker 2: have to ask the question and then answer it ourselves.
Speaker 2: Of quarter which coaches get fired during the season?
Speaker 5: I think?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 3: Okay, yes? Is that how we're phrasing this?
Speaker 2: Well, right now we have a number of coaches fired
Speaker 2: before the end of the season. But we'll start naming names,
Speaker 2: oh my goodness, and then it's time to play hot
Speaker 2: dogs and hot takes that'll be coming up.
