0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 1>for you. I'm gonna work hard on this one. I

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>did not drink my fourth cup of coffee, which you

0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>think I apparently drink every day, which would be impressive,

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:45.959
<v Speaker 1>but I don't um. I've had a bottle of water,

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>and I have my piece of paper in front of

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 1>me ready to do this. So Ben, this one's for you, buddy.

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>Hope you enjoy it. But what I hope you also

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>enjoy is that we there is a third member on

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>the po cast. Ben, you gave no shout out to Will. Yeah, Max, congratulations,

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>you know your takes your Everyone loves Max. That's just

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>what it is. Everyone loves Max. By Ben Rickman one

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 1>two three. He's already annoyed with how excited I got

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:16.920
<v Speaker 1>about the fact that he didn't know Will is on

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 1>the podcast. Right that was that was too loud for him? Ye? Sorry, Ben,

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 1>are you listening Today's in the morning? Like, are you

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.240
<v Speaker 1>listening to them in the morning? And you're not a

0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 1>morning person and so it's hard. I don't know, Ben,

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:30.800
<v Speaker 1>but we're gonna make you proud on this one. And

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>will you have to talk a lot in this one? Okay,

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't really talk much. I'm going to take a

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.360
<v Speaker 1>backseat on this one. I thought, I think that's what

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:43.359
<v Speaker 1>should happen. Max. We need more, we need Cowbell back.

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>We always love reading the reviews, so continue to leave them. Although, um,

0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>we prefer the five stars, so you can write like

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:52.919
<v Speaker 1>a scathing review, but maybe just give us like five

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.079
<v Speaker 1>stars off the top. Sure, yeah, that seems fair. That's

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 1>really we're just looking. It's like Uber. Okay, it's like uber,

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:00.760
<v Speaker 1>just get outside five stars, five stars and then we're um,

0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:04.280
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, thank you, Ben Rickman one two, three, creative

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>little nickname you got there for yourself, and we'll try

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:08.799
<v Speaker 1>and make you proud. And this one, but this one

0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:13.640
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about the Emmy's not football. The Emmys, the

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:16.920
<v Speaker 1>seventy one Emmys are on Sunday of this week, and

0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.640

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.640
<v Speaker 1>nominate Panther players, personnel, staff, anyone that we want to.

0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.320
<v Speaker 1>I also went a little bit off the script here

0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>and I nominated other people around the NFL for some

0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.520
<v Speaker 1>of these awards, So get ready, Max, you have to

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 1>go first, because yeah, you have to go first. Wait, wait,

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>hold on, do y'all watch the Emmy's Yeah, I'll watch them. Yeah,

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>I like to have them on. I love all awards

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 1>shows just for like the pageantry and the host and

0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>all of those things. I watch a lot of TV,

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 1>so I I just like I'll have a rooting interest

0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and like, I want my shows to win. What are

0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the kind of the rankings of award shows like Oscar's, Emmy's, Graham,

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>I have any saying I love any music awards show, Like,

0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I think those are the best. They're just the most entertaining.

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, when the TV and movie ones, you know

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:16.440
<v Speaker 1>the winners beforehand most of the time, Yeah, yeah, I think. Yeah,

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>there's rarely like, oh my gosh, they want you know,

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 1>I kind of don't like that. Yeah, I like knowing

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>in the moment. Do you like it more for like

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the performances in the show or the actual like who's

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:33.479
<v Speaker 1>going to win something? Definitely, And the speeches sometimes I

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>get uncomfortable, So I like seeing the highlights of the speeches.

0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 1>So I like to have it on, But I'm not

0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 1>one that's like, okay, this this person. It can be

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 1>kind of fun to see this famous person like be

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.600
<v Speaker 1>awkward in on live television. That's kind of like, you know, Oh,

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:53.279
<v Speaker 1>they're normal, they're just like us. They're rambling or who

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>wasn't Jennifer Lawrence tripped? Yeah, those moments are always fun.

0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.599
<v Speaker 1>But she did it so gracefully the second time she

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of it looks nice and made a couple of pictures. Uh. Yeah,

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:05.120
<v Speaker 1>they're always entertaining, they're always fun. But this one is

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Sunday eight o'clock, big rival with the NFL games. I

0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 1>don't gonna be catching that one, but what are you

0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:13.920
<v Speaker 1>guys gonna be watching? So we'll be catching the highlights

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>of the Emmys. But it gave us a pretty fun

0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 1>little way to navigate through this week as the Carolina

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Panthers get ready to go to Arizona to take on

0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:25.360
<v Speaker 1>the O and two Arizona Cardinals too, oh and two teams.

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 1>So we're gonna get to that matchup in just a

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.840
<v Speaker 1>little bit, but first let's go through our nominees as

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.600
<v Speaker 1>what kind of help set us up for what is

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 1>coming later when we preview this game, but Max, you

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.480
<v Speaker 1>have to go first, since Ben likes you the best. Yeah,

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 1>so much pressure. Um. Alright, So here are a couple

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>that I have. I'll start off with some of the

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:46.320
<v Speaker 1>big ones, like lead actor in a comedy series. I

0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:50.240
<v Speaker 1>would dominate Greg Olson. I mean, he's hilarious. I would

0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:52.600
<v Speaker 1>watch that show. I know both of you would watch

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>that show. We have watched that there might actually be

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 1>a show that there might actually be a show in

0:05:57.720 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the works that we don't know about yet that's coming

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 1>one s. I gets done playing football, So that was

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.960
<v Speaker 1>an obvious one for me. Supporting Actor has to do

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:08.360
<v Speaker 1>with Thursday Night Football. Did you guys see the acting

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.880
<v Speaker 1>job by j J Jansen on that punt? No? I

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.839
<v Speaker 1>missed it. So JJ is running down the field to

0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.080
<v Speaker 1>cover the punt, and this was like a pretty big

0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:21.919
<v Speaker 1>return for Tampa Bay. But j J kind of like

0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 1>sensing that there wasn't really like a lot of contain

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:29.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of like backed himself into a buck God drew

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 1>a block in the black. If you watch the replay,

0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:35.040
<v Speaker 1>it's it's pretty like he does a pretty good sell job.

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>So for the acting credentials alone, I give JJ nomination

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 1>for the Supporting Actor rule. Because that was impressive. That's awesome. Um, actually, yeah,

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask about that. Actually he'll probably say like, oh,

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.680
<v Speaker 1>it's completely a block in the black obviously, but that's

0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 1>a good actor for you. Um. Some other interesting award categories.

0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:56.920
<v Speaker 1>There were some about like hairstyle, So yeah, like hairstyling

0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 1>for a limited series or a movie. Because I'm just

0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna say hair styling here, best hair on the team

0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Ray Ray McLoud and I don't think it's close right

0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>arms would try and jump into yeah, that's a good one.

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I had some like bleached hair for a little while. Yea, um,

0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:18.760
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, there's no Ray. Ray's hair is outrageous. I

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.160
<v Speaker 1>guess Cam would be upset if we didn't mention his hair.

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 1>But I think there are a lot of split opinions

0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:24.920
<v Speaker 1>on that. What do you think Cam's hair? Duke Will?

0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>I like it? I don't. I don't know, I'm not.

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't get triggered by all this stuff. You know,

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.400
<v Speaker 1>why is why is his hair doing this? And why

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 1>does he have a cams outfits? We can go costume

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 1>design here and obviously, but man, you were telling me

0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 1>that the website was going nuts with everyone looking at

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Cam's outfits. I mean, so it became one of those

0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 1>things where the analytics from the website this weekend were

0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 1>the highest performing gallery with like Cam's training camp outfits

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.559
<v Speaker 1>from two years ago, because people were all googling it.

0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:57.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's this Vogue did you say this as

0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Vogue article of fending cams to say visions with fashion

0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and how people if you know, people being critical of

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>it is really an indictment on our society and that

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 1>we should be like giving people freedom to express themselves

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 1>with their style. We've made it to Vogue. I love

0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Vogue has some of the my favorite videos on YouTube.

0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:19.520
<v Speaker 1>They do like the seventy three questions, they do all

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:22.560
<v Speaker 1>the like win Tour. I'm sad I missed this. Please

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.760
<v Speaker 1>we'll have to send. So those are my nominees. Enough

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:27.400

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>very We all love that video from from him playing

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.719
<v Speaker 1>the piano. You know, I got choked up a little bit.

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:38.840
<v Speaker 1>It was such a little thing. But yeah, I mean

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:43.400
<v Speaker 1>he's talented. Man, man has talent. It's a It wasn't

0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:47.000
<v Speaker 1>an original, wasn't an original piece, but he made it

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 1>seem like one that didn't he Yes, he did, Yes,

0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:53.400
<v Speaker 1>he did. Um. This isn't technically listed on on this one,

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.920
<v Speaker 1>but you know, the best ensemble. I would bring it

0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.640
<v Speaker 1>back just to kind of too special teams. Overall, this

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:01.560
<v Speaker 1>is not nearly as fun as some of the other

0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.520
<v Speaker 1>things we've listed, but like obviously, when Ray Ray catches

0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the ball, he does pretty well. I had he had

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:11.440
<v Speaker 1>a pretty big return in the key point when he

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 1>needs to catch it. Though Joey Slide leads the NFL

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and fifty yard field goals. He's got three already. It

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:19.080
<v Speaker 1>makes it look easy. I mean, it's incredible. You just

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.040
<v Speaker 1>he you know, he's living right. The ball is just

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:23.880
<v Speaker 1>bouncing in from the you know, from the upright, bouncing

0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>through and after I'm missing his first which I think

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:28.319
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people are like, oh boy, oh gosh,

0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>he missed the first one, like is this how is

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:32.480
<v Speaker 1>he gonna handle that? And then he's made his last

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:37.600
<v Speaker 1>six three three from fifty plus. I'm pretty sure he's

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:40.839
<v Speaker 1>the team's leading score right now. Yeah, yeah, he is,

0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 1>Yes he is. Those are good? You got another one

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 1>for those are two? Well, I was kind of gonna

0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 1>mind just wasn't nearly as funny. I was gonna put

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Greg for supporting Actor just because, you know, I just

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that people were expecting Greg to be

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, everyone's kind of like, oh, you got Curtis,

0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.920
<v Speaker 1>he got DJ got Christian. Greg goes out here and

0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>gets a hundred in something yards and it's like, Okay,

0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 1>that was my nominee. So I have Greg four supporting

0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:07.560
<v Speaker 1>actor because he is the one that you don't ever

0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:11.080
<v Speaker 1>need this, you know, role in a movie until you

0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.080
<v Speaker 1>need him. And that's how Greg Olsen is for this team.

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 1>It's one of it's like the reason you carry cash,

0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you like, never really need cash, and too absolutely deep,

0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:22.160
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So that's Greg Olsen. Okay,

0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:24.560
<v Speaker 1>he has a hundred and forty six yards on ten

0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:29.480
<v Speaker 1>receptions and he's averaging fourteen point six reception. Here shows up,

0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>run into the open field, Greg catches the vault, looks around.

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:36.959
<v Speaker 1>He's like, I guess I gotta keep going. I guess

0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I gotta run here. But I also also want to

0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>point out that on the sidelines, when you know this

0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.240
<v Speaker 1>team was trying to find a win against Tampa Bay,

0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.360
<v Speaker 1>obviously not the end and we wanted, but Greg was

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:50.280
<v Speaker 1>the one making sure everyone was fired up and dialed in.

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.960
<v Speaker 1>You could nominate him for director as well. Yeah, Greg

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.319
<v Speaker 1>does how to direct things. Greg's a hot topic here

0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.440
<v Speaker 1>for them. I think we should. We're pretty much giving

0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 1>all the awards to all the awards to Greg. All right,

0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm going on for costume um Don Toner just because

0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>he has fifty three really like forty or so, but

0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>fifty three guys on the roster that all have their

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.559
<v Speaker 1>unique style. They want to wear this sleeve, they want

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:19.000
<v Speaker 1>to wear this wrist band, they want to have these socks.

0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 1>They want to do all these things. And Don Toner

0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>and his staff like they pull it off. And what

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.120
<v Speaker 1>we said earlier about the uniforms not coming in until

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 1>days before they have to go like this is still happening. People,

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>So we have to give Don ton Er a huge

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 1>shout out. He would he would win. Okay, he's winning

0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 1>the Emmy for Panthers costume for what did you think

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Reality Programming? What did you think of the blue jersey,

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:45.160
<v Speaker 1>black pants? Look clean? I thought it looked good. Yeah,

0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>it did look like a new uniform, better as to

0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:50.280
<v Speaker 1>last year. You're right, Yeah, it looked good in the

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>stadium too, Like I know that's weird, but like it

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:55.319
<v Speaker 1>looked good the lights and everything. Yeah, it looked really good. Alright.

0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I went for the entire NFL on this one. But

0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.360
<v Speaker 1>when I was reading through the list of the different

0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:06.960
<v Speaker 1>categories like drama series, I bounced around on this one

0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. I wrote down, I went team here,

0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:12.640
<v Speaker 1>but it's the Browns. The Browns for me are gonna

0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:16.360
<v Speaker 1>win the drama series because there's still so much to

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>talk about with that team of what they've done just

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 1>last night. Okay, we're filming this on or we're taping

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.880
<v Speaker 1>this on Tuesday, Monday Night football. There were so many

0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:28.640
<v Speaker 1>storylines for this broadcasters to get through. I got confused,

0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Like it was, you know, the the defensive coordinator from

0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the Jets and you know, wanted to be the head

0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 1>coach and Freddy Kitchens, Now what's going on with this

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:40.240
<v Speaker 1>play calling? Baker Mayfield feeling dangerous? You got Odell Beckham

0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:42.719
<v Speaker 1>with one handicap. Like, there were so many storylines. I

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:44.679
<v Speaker 1>thought to myself, what are they going to talk about

0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:46.920
<v Speaker 1>next week? But then you look at their schedule that's

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.800
<v Speaker 1>coming up, and you're like, oh, it's not over for them,

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:53.520
<v Speaker 1>like they have to continue. It's just who's on their schedule.

0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Like in all it's like there's there's no shortage of

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the Yes, I think that's true. They have the Ramps

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:05.080
<v Speaker 1>thumbs up from he confirms it's the Rams. It's going

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 1>to be like a fascinating and you knew this going in,

0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:11.439
<v Speaker 1>but then like the Raider stole the headlines for a while.

0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Although the okay, this one, I might regret saying this

0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:20.319
<v Speaker 1>because well, I feel like people were going to agree

0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 1>for comedy guest actor, I'm giving this to Antonio Brown.

0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say Antonio has to be mentioned. He's

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.880
<v Speaker 1>the guest actor for the Raiders. He was just a guest.

0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 1>Now he is on the Patriots and we haven't heard

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:34.840
<v Speaker 1>a heap out of him. He's just he's not even

0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:40.079
<v Speaker 1>doing after game like availability has some extracurricular activities going

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.120
<v Speaker 1>on right now. He is a little He does have

0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:45.960
<v Speaker 1>some interesting things on the backburner that he needs to

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.960
<v Speaker 1>handle there. But as far as just what he did

0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:51.880
<v Speaker 1>with the Raiders, that's where I'm pulling this from comedy

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>guest actor for the Raiders Antonio Brown there, it was

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 1>fascinating it was just every day you thought it was over,

0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:00.720
<v Speaker 1>it's not over, and it's still not for although now

0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:05.800
<v Speaker 1>it's getting more serious. We're getting into real accusations here. Um,

0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:09.560
<v Speaker 1>but we're you know, we're still you talk about like

0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:11.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of dealing with that. People will say the

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:13.320
<v Speaker 1>NFL is a soap opera, and it's never been more

0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.559
<v Speaker 1>true than with the Antonio Brown situation. I mean, it

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:17.880
<v Speaker 1>is just absurred. We're looking at a headline right now

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 1>that I'm not going to say on air, but wow,

0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:24.320
<v Speaker 1>if you google Antonio Brown New York Post, there's an

0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 1>article from yesterday. It just came up on my Twitter

0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 1>this morning. Sure you haven't found this for sure, you know,

0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, for yourself, we're gonna we're gonna save everyone

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.080
<v Speaker 1>and not say it. But if you choose to go

0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 1>and google that on your own, I'm not sure if

0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:43.800
<v Speaker 1>you say like you're welcome or I'm sorry for you,

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.160
<v Speaker 1>but yes, that one I will say. I feel like

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 1>every single year we're like, gosh, that it cannot get

0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>more crazy than this year. But I think with the

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 1>quarterback injuries that's going around the league, the crazy growth

0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:59.000
<v Speaker 1>of the way that social media is persuading that how

0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:02.760
<v Speaker 1>many players have quested a trade from their team. I

0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 1>think it's crazy. What's going on in Miami is crazy.

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.440
<v Speaker 1>I just think the world of social media is completely

0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.600
<v Speaker 1>changing the NFL and the voice that these players have,

0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:17.880
<v Speaker 1>and it is making the drama. Yeah. Yeah, I think

0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:22.520
<v Speaker 1>the the NFL is in some ways is beginning to

0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>catch up to the NBA. Say it feels like the

0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:29.400
<v Speaker 1>NBA has influenced this. It's sort of like open NFL

0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:32.240
<v Speaker 1>players eyes and kind of like motivated them to try

0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 1>to take on some more power in these situations. And yeah,

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>like Jalen Ramsey, Antonio Brown, these guys are like, I'm

0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>out and while we're sitting here, sorry I interrupted your

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:47.200
<v Speaker 1>sentences been layoff? Did just cut them off there? But

0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 1>this is because breaking news while we're recording this on Tuesday,

0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Eli Maning no longer the starting quarterback for the Giant,

0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:59.240
<v Speaker 1>So there's another layer of drama for Daniel Jones Era.

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, shoot, Carson Wentz got hurt during the game

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:04.800
<v Speaker 1>on Sunday night. Yeah, I mean yeah, Josh McCown out there,

0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Josh McCown. It is. It is really a crazy crazy

0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:12.800
<v Speaker 1>We're two weeks in talking like you didn't even mention Andrew. Look,

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like there's so many quarterbacks and it's not

0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.320
<v Speaker 1>it's not good for the league. I mean, look, Caroline

0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 1>has got their own quarterback situation right now with with

0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.200
<v Speaker 1>Cam Newton. Everyone's trying to figure out what's what's going

0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:26.880
<v Speaker 1>on with Cam? But man, I mean Roethlisberger, Breeze Luck.

0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 1>It's it's a quarterback driven league, and where all the

0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:35.120
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks going? Right? We're looking at Nick Falk? Yeah, right now,

0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Luke Fox. Luke Fox. Are you didn't even know his name? Us?

0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Luke Falk? What's his name? I think? So? Okay, Yeah,

0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.720
<v Speaker 1>but I mean that's a fascinat Okay, that's a fascinating part.

0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:50.760
<v Speaker 1>He took practice squad reps going into that game, and

0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 1>then on Monday Night football, Yeah, I mean you can

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:55.560
<v Speaker 1>just watch a little bit of that game. You could

0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>tell the guys out there he's just like, well, I'm

0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:02.040
<v Speaker 1>not really ready for this up alright, white ady white

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.399
<v Speaker 1>adye hike. And then it's just interesting to see Ryan

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Khalil snapping, I know, the first time I've seen him. Yeah, yeah, five.

0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Ryan always said he hated sixty five when he got

0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:17.480
<v Speaker 1>that as a rookie. It's always much better because always

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:19.679
<v Speaker 1>cracking me up because he would say this, and he

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:21.680
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, they gave me this disgusting number. I

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:23.639
<v Speaker 1>had to wear sixty five my rookie year, and like

0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:26.080
<v Speaker 1>a mini Sola total had a locker right next to him.

0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:29.000
<v Speaker 1>He wore sixty five, and it was like, you're dogging

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.040
<v Speaker 1>this number the guy right next to you as to

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:34.679
<v Speaker 1>where it's I thought that was, I don't know, ugly

0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:38.119
<v Speaker 1>and disgusting. Why seven any better? I don't know. He

0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:39.680
<v Speaker 1>liked the seven a lot that anyway. And I was

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:41.920
<v Speaker 1>wearing fifty five, which I thought was weird. That's a linebacker.

0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Now we we We had this discussion yesterday and Caroline

0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.879
<v Speaker 1>hop In here like what are good numbers versus what

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 1>are like ugly numbers? I agree, like what what? What's

0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:55.600
<v Speaker 1>an ugly number for you? So my niece right now

0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:59.320
<v Speaker 1>is playing soccer. First, she's four years old, and I

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 1>got a photo of her her uniform. She's seventy What

0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.120
<v Speaker 1>what that wasn't my thing? I was like, She's like,

0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:12.520
<v Speaker 1>seventies a fine number, but on a four year old

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:15.399
<v Speaker 1>playing soccer when there's five people on the team. I

0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:18.000
<v Speaker 1>did not understand the seventies. So I just think as

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:22.879
<v Speaker 1>long as the number made yeah huge, she would definitely

0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:27.720
<v Speaker 1>choose hands down. But I don't if it fits for

0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:30.920
<v Speaker 1>like your position group is there. I don't think there's

0:18:30.920 --> 0:18:35.520
<v Speaker 1>like a bad number. But I was thirteen. I loved thirteen.

0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Some people didn't like thirteen, but I love Yeah. I

0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.639
<v Speaker 1>just loved that, so I had. I was ten, I

0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:46.840
<v Speaker 1>was five and then like, but I don't know about

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>like ugly. I don't know, like okay, I thought some

0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 1>girl on my team she had like, like, we're volleyball team,

0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.400
<v Speaker 1>we don't have that many players. I think that's when

0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.600
<v Speaker 1>it gets weird when you have like a number that's

0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:01.639
<v Speaker 1>outside the scope of like seventy for a five person

0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:05.200
<v Speaker 1>four year old. I'll give like, I think six is ugly. Yeah,

0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:07.840
<v Speaker 1>I just don't like six. I just wouldn't want to

0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:11.040
<v Speaker 1>wear it like sex. I don't like not like just

0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:14.840
<v Speaker 1>not a clean number either. I'll take five and seven,

0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:19.880
<v Speaker 1>but don't give me six. Is anyone else out there

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:25.440
<v Speaker 1>like this? I'm sure some ugly numbers. When I played

0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:29.320
<v Speaker 1>high school, so saying said, yeah, they gave me sixty

0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:31.920
<v Speaker 1>five and that was the only jersey they had left,

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:33.520
<v Speaker 1>And so I had to. I had to stick with

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>sixty five. And I was so excited to share with

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:37.639
<v Speaker 1>my parents that I had this new number. And I

0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:39.879
<v Speaker 1>went home to look up what football player at the

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:41.600
<v Speaker 1>time I had sixty five, and none of them did.

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:46.480
<v Speaker 1>So I'll say this too, Like before Luke Kickley, I

0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:48.439
<v Speaker 1>would have said, like, fifty nine is an ugly number,

0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>but a person can change the whole trajectory of a number.

0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:54.480
<v Speaker 1>And now I agree. If you're good, you can do anything.

0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:57.000
<v Speaker 1>You can make it cool, you can make anything you want.

0:19:57.400 --> 0:20:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I remember growing up Keyshawn Johnson made night nineteen was

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:05.359
<v Speaker 1>not cool? Is being like not cool? Yeah? He he

0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of made it cool. And then he came to

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the Panthers and nineteen. Yeah. I think maybe nineteen might

0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:13.680
<v Speaker 1>be my my ugly number. I'm just not really into

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:17.359
<v Speaker 1>the nineteen. That's interesting. This is a really fascinating Do

0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 1>you think that receivers should be in the eighties or

0:20:19.800 --> 0:20:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the teens? The teens? Yeah, I don't get the eighties

0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:27.240
<v Speaker 1>for receivers. That's like it's a traditionalist. All the eighties

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:29.200
<v Speaker 1>used to all the receivers used to be in eighties.

0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Now all the younger guys, I think it's because so

0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:35.119
<v Speaker 1>it's the body of the person wearing it. So I

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.120
<v Speaker 1>think the reason seventy looks so funny on my four

0:20:38.200 --> 0:20:41.919
<v Speaker 1>year old nieces because she's tiny. So like with receivers,

0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:47.560
<v Speaker 1>it's like in college football when seven number nine, look,

0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:49.600
<v Speaker 1>that looks so funny. So I think it should just

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:51.840
<v Speaker 1>be you know, centered in a way that still gives

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:56.000
<v Speaker 1>some space on the side, So like a thirteen or

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:58.560
<v Speaker 1>something like that. You can fit that on a wide

0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:00.760
<v Speaker 1>receiver and he still has some root. Do you guys

0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.480
<v Speaker 1>remember when Michigan's quarterback, like three or four years ago,

0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Gardner I think was his last name, he wore number

0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and he put quarterback. Yeah, that looked terrible, terrible. It

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:13.160
<v Speaker 1>looks like someone like it's just not right. Yeah, it's

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 1>not right. You can't be doing that. Is that even

0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 1>allowed in college? Yeah, they allow. There's a lot more

0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:23.600
<v Speaker 1>flexibility with this stuff. But that look at that, it

0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:26.320
<v Speaker 1>looks like a sample jersey that like they let me

0:21:26.480 --> 0:21:28.440
<v Speaker 1>see how because his last name is a little a

0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:30.960
<v Speaker 1>little bit longer. So it's like, let's see how many

0:21:31.080 --> 0:21:35.879
<v Speaker 1>characters we can fit on this jersey. And what are

0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:40.440
<v Speaker 1>your feelings about the double zero? It's not really a

0:21:40.440 --> 0:21:46.560
<v Speaker 1>football thing. I don't know. My thing is like why, yeah, why.

0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I think at one point I was when when I

0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:51.879
<v Speaker 1>was really little playing little league soccer, I was a

0:21:51.920 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 1>goalie with double zero. But I think that was like

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:57.679
<v Speaker 1>the thing like Polis had zero. Eric Montrose, Yeah, but

0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand it and don't know because you have

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to request that, Like that's not something, although I do

0:22:03.440 --> 0:22:06.040
<v Speaker 1>find it funny. The person that wears number one on

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:09.120
<v Speaker 1>every team is always like an interesting character. Yeah, there's

0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:11.560
<v Speaker 1>a certain personality trait that comes with that. You have. Yeah,

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Pat McAfee with the ski War number one, and I

0:22:14.400 --> 0:22:17.640
<v Speaker 1>thought he was just the perfect number one, just that

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:20.200
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the type of character. I want to wear

0:22:20.240 --> 0:22:24.520
<v Speaker 1>a number one jersey because it's ridiculous. Cam obviously took

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:28.680
<v Speaker 1>on number one with a certain swaggers. You cannot walk

0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:30.520
<v Speaker 1>around with a number one on your jersey and not

0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:36.400
<v Speaker 1>be some type of like unique individual. Wills over there googling. Yeah,

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:41.600
<v Speaker 1>he's down the double zero round he has deepen there. Well,

0:22:41.640 --> 0:22:45.000
<v Speaker 1>let's preview quickly the Arizona Cardinals that Carolina Panthers. An

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:48.280
<v Speaker 1>interesting week here for the Carolina Panthers. Normally for away games,

0:22:48.280 --> 0:22:51.840
<v Speaker 1>they will travel on Saturday to the opposing city, but

0:22:51.880 --> 0:22:54.239
<v Speaker 1>this week they're going on Friday. The time difference has

0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 1>a big thing to do with it. Go out there.

0:22:55.800 --> 0:22:57.679
<v Speaker 1>They will have a walk through and kind of like

0:22:57.800 --> 0:23:01.320
<v Speaker 1>mock game Saturday in air Zota. Guess what are you

0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:04.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna do with your extra day in Arizona. I'm gonna

0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>try to find some good takas. I mean, we're out

0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:12.879
<v Speaker 1>in Phoenix, supposedly pretty good. The foodie in me is

0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:15.080
<v Speaker 1>going to try to find the best tacas I can

0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:21.320
<v Speaker 1>in Phoenix. So we'll see. I'll report back. I'm actually here. Yeah, yeah,

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm staying. So I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna get up

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:27.600
<v Speaker 1>and go watch this Michigan Wisconsin game and text Max

0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:29.159
<v Speaker 1>to wake him up since it's going to be like

0:23:29.200 --> 0:23:33.920
<v Speaker 1>nine am, kick nine am. I'm just like, yeah, that's

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:36.639
<v Speaker 1>really sweet. I'm hopevillly gonna find some hiking. Yeah, the

0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:40.440
<v Speaker 1>some hiking around. Um. Lisa Matthews their team reporter for

0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the Cardinals. She is really good at hosting the team

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:44.159
<v Speaker 1>reporters that come in. So I think we're going to go.

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Is it is it like elevation? Is there a lot

0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:49.880
<v Speaker 1>of elevation or is it like flat hiking, Like there's

0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:52.080
<v Speaker 1>like mountains. There's some mountains out there, but they're not

0:23:52.160 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 1>like I mean, but it's yeah, there are some. It's

0:23:56.040 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>just hot. I was talking to a few of my

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:00.439
<v Speaker 1>girlfriends that have gone out there. It's just hot hiking.

0:24:01.320 --> 0:24:04.359
<v Speaker 1>So it'll be everyone says it's that dry heat, but

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:08.920
<v Speaker 1>like that's it's still really hot. You can't get away

0:24:08.960 --> 0:24:12.600
<v Speaker 1>from one thing, all right, But football wise, this is

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:14.560
<v Speaker 1>an interesting match up between two teams that are O

0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 1>in two. Both have allowed a lot of points in

0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 1>these first cardinals tied though, right, so they are oh

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:26.920
<v Speaker 1>one and one, which is the tie? Yeah, oh one

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:31.040
<v Speaker 1>and one. So an interesting just an interesting week here

0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 1>of football. I think there's a lot of question marks

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 1>for both teams, a lot of question marks, so it's

0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:38.399
<v Speaker 1>a little bit hard to preview this of just what

0:24:38.640 --> 0:24:41.880
<v Speaker 1>is going to happen when the teams get out there. Yeah,

0:24:42.000 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Panthers are desperate for a win. I mean at O

0:24:44.520 --> 0:24:47.200
<v Speaker 1>in two and losing that game, and we talked about

0:24:47.200 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 1>it on the last show. You got a short week

0:24:49.920 --> 0:24:52.560
<v Speaker 1>at divisional opponent coming to your place for Thursday night football.

0:24:52.600 --> 0:24:54.239
<v Speaker 1>That was one you kind of felt they gotta have

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:57.600
<v Speaker 1>they have didn't get it, Uh, and now they're backed

0:24:57.600 --> 0:24:59.480
<v Speaker 1>into a corner. I mean, there's there's really no other

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>way to say it. Um, you've put yourself in a

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:04.439
<v Speaker 1>real hole and the only way to get out of

0:25:04.480 --> 0:25:06.920
<v Speaker 1>it is to play better football. Really, I mean it

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:11.639
<v Speaker 1>just sounds simple, but they keep they keep making mistakes. Um,

0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:13.960
<v Speaker 1>they moved the ball. Well. I went on this whole

0:25:14.000 --> 0:25:15.920
<v Speaker 1>big rant on the show last week and talked about

0:25:15.960 --> 0:25:17.880
<v Speaker 1>how they need big plays. Where they got the big plays,

0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:21.560
<v Speaker 1>but it does you no good if you get down

0:25:21.640 --> 0:25:23.679
<v Speaker 1>into the fringe red zone area and then take a

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:26.520
<v Speaker 1>sack and now you're looking at second and seventeen and

0:25:26.880 --> 0:25:30.720
<v Speaker 1>your quarterback is getting hit. It was just it wasn't

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 1>clean enough football again for them to get a win

0:25:33.680 --> 0:25:35.879
<v Speaker 1>in a game that, much like in the opener, was

0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:37.840
<v Speaker 1>there to be had. I mean it was. It was

0:25:37.920 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 1>there for the taking at home against the Bucks team

0:25:41.880 --> 0:25:46.239
<v Speaker 1>that did just enough in the end. But Carolina right

0:25:46.280 --> 0:25:49.600
<v Speaker 1>now is the frustration is mounting. The fans are upset.

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Everyone gets it. Um, there's no way to change it

0:25:53.720 --> 0:25:55.360
<v Speaker 1>other than to get a win. And it's not gonna

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:57.640
<v Speaker 1>be easy going on the road to face Kyler Murray

0:25:57.640 --> 0:26:00.760
<v Speaker 1>and this Cardinals team that how has the potential to

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:03.160
<v Speaker 1>hurt you. I mean, they're they're they're young, and they're

0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna kind of take their lumps as they go

0:26:05.560 --> 0:26:09.120
<v Speaker 1>through this. But Murray can make plays and we're gonna

0:26:09.160 --> 0:26:11.679
<v Speaker 1>find out how the defense can fare against that. And really,

0:26:11.760 --> 0:26:13.680
<v Speaker 1>we all want to know how this Panther's offense is

0:26:13.680 --> 0:26:16.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna fair because that's been the thing where all the

0:26:16.800 --> 0:26:19.159
<v Speaker 1>all the attention is focused on. Right now, what's the

0:26:19.200 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 1>deal with Cam? What's the deal with this offense? If

0:26:21.800 --> 0:26:23.080
<v Speaker 1>teams are going to do with the Bucks did and

0:26:23.160 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>try to just take away Christian McCaffrey, can this offense

0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:28.880
<v Speaker 1>score points? Yeah, they're gonna try to make the Panthers

0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:31.560
<v Speaker 1>be one dimensional. Every teams on the row, you know,

0:26:31.600 --> 0:26:33.359
<v Speaker 1>then take away the running game. They're gonna dare the

0:26:33.400 --> 0:26:35.879
<v Speaker 1>Panthers to beat them through the year. And it's it's

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:38.840
<v Speaker 1>starting to feel like it that almost you know that

0:26:38.920 --> 0:26:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the defense got a safety last week, it's almost gonna

0:26:41.320 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 1>feel that the defense is going to have to score,

0:26:43.600 --> 0:26:45.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, if not, if not actually score, you know,

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:48.959
<v Speaker 1>at least give the ball in plus territory, you know,

0:26:49.119 --> 0:26:52.880
<v Speaker 1>in scoring territory for this team to be and who knows.

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:55.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Kyler Murray has been been hit, He's been

0:26:55.760 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>sacked a lot. It's been sacked eight times. You know.

0:26:58.320 --> 0:27:01.119
<v Speaker 1>I think they're big play both ways. They can be

0:27:01.600 --> 0:27:03.239
<v Speaker 1>they can kill you with the big play or they

0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:05.600
<v Speaker 1>can give up a big play that can really shift

0:27:05.640 --> 0:27:08.199
<v Speaker 1>momentum to you. So it's a question of can this

0:27:08.359 --> 0:27:12.639
<v Speaker 1>defense ratchet it up yet another level to to be

0:27:13.600 --> 0:27:16.480
<v Speaker 1>a playmaking defense, because it's almost like that's what that's

0:27:16.480 --> 0:27:18.920
<v Speaker 1>what the team needs right now. It's a lot to ask,

0:27:19.000 --> 0:27:21.159
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot to ask. I'm with you, though, I

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:23.359
<v Speaker 1>think that the piece that I want to see that

0:27:23.359 --> 0:27:25.119
<v Speaker 1>I think this team needs. When we can talk a

0:27:25.119 --> 0:27:27.960
<v Speaker 1>lot about the things on offense, you know, the defense,

0:27:28.200 --> 0:27:30.840
<v Speaker 1>there's they've got some things to work through as well.

0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:35.280
<v Speaker 1>But I think a takeaway from that secondary is so needed. Yes,

0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:38.640
<v Speaker 1>because I mean but also capital. I mean we saw

0:27:38.680 --> 0:27:41.280
<v Speaker 1>that from James Bradberry. He got the takeaway and then

0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:42.919
<v Speaker 1>you give it to the offense and nothing comes of it.

0:27:42.960 --> 0:27:45.080
<v Speaker 1>You go three and out. But I think when you're

0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:48.239
<v Speaker 1>going against Kyler Murray, who he's still learning, when you

0:27:48.280 --> 0:27:50.240
<v Speaker 1>hear you know, Will grew was talking a lot about

0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the speed of the game. Well, the same thing is

0:27:51.920 --> 0:27:54.439
<v Speaker 1>happening for Kyler Murray and he's being asked to start

0:27:54.520 --> 0:27:57.320
<v Speaker 1>and and from day one he was the one with

0:27:57.359 --> 0:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of pressure on him to make sure that

0:27:59.040 --> 0:28:01.240
<v Speaker 1>this offense is going on him and Cliff Kingsbury going

0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:03.200
<v Speaker 1>through that. So I think this is a week for

0:28:04.080 --> 0:28:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the secondary to have a really good game, get some

0:28:06.640 --> 0:28:09.120
<v Speaker 1>takeaways and take it to the house, Like, don't let's

0:28:09.119 --> 0:28:10.960
<v Speaker 1>just skip this whole giving it back to the offense

0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:13.920
<v Speaker 1>and let's just go back. Let's score, because I think

0:28:14.160 --> 0:28:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I want to see the Panthers play from ahead. I

0:28:16.600 --> 0:28:19.320
<v Speaker 1>know everyone does. And yes, that's like every week. You're like, well,

0:28:19.560 --> 0:28:21.879
<v Speaker 1>duck Caroline, like, of course you do. But we haven't

0:28:21.880 --> 0:28:24.280
<v Speaker 1>seen that yet. We haven't seen you know, Cam be

0:28:24.359 --> 0:28:26.239
<v Speaker 1>able to get into his swag a little bit and

0:28:26.320 --> 0:28:28.399
<v Speaker 1>feel good about himself when they have a lead and

0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 1>be on go. They've been playing catch up. This entire

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:34.720
<v Speaker 1>rush freshening thing is they've been in position to take

0:28:34.760 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 1>early leads. Against the Rams, it was that opening drive

0:28:38.120 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>and then DJ fumbles, and then against the Bucks it's

0:28:41.480 --> 0:28:44.560
<v Speaker 1>fourth and one, and they love the idea of putting

0:28:44.600 --> 0:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>cam one on one with the dB, and the dB

0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:49.160
<v Speaker 1>makes a great play cuts his legs out from under him.

0:28:49.320 --> 0:28:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Unfortunately a camera angle isn't there to show whether or

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:54.840
<v Speaker 1>not he actually got the first down. But those were

0:28:54.840 --> 0:28:56.400
<v Speaker 1>the cards they were dealt and they didn't get it.

0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>So it's it's early in games. They've had opportunities to

0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:01.200
<v Speaker 1>go down there and whether it's kick a field goal,

0:29:01.320 --> 0:29:03.240
<v Speaker 1>just get some points on the board, and they keep

0:29:03.240 --> 0:29:06.200
<v Speaker 1>shooting themselves on the foot. Um and until they stopped

0:29:06.240 --> 0:29:08.880
<v Speaker 1>doing that, this team right now is not playing well

0:29:09.000 --> 0:29:12.720
<v Speaker 1>enough to win. In spite of that. They need they

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:17.360
<v Speaker 1>can't be making these self inflicted mistakes and expect to

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:19.360
<v Speaker 1>go out there and get wins. They need to play

0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:21.600
<v Speaker 1>clean football and and and until they do that, I

0:29:21.600 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 1>think that the struggles will continue. Um. It's just it's

0:29:25.040 --> 0:29:27.560
<v Speaker 1>just a must for this team right now. I think

0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:29.760
<v Speaker 1>something that is the most telling for me from this

0:29:29.960 --> 0:29:32.800
<v Speaker 1>past week was what Trey Boston had to stay in

0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the locker room after the game. He was very candid

0:29:35.960 --> 0:29:38.560
<v Speaker 1>about the fact that he didn't think this entire locker

0:29:38.640 --> 0:29:41.040
<v Speaker 1>room was on the same page, and the entire locker

0:29:41.120 --> 0:29:43.920
<v Speaker 1>room was bought into where they were going. I don't

0:29:43.920 --> 0:29:45.640
<v Speaker 1>take that lightly. I mean, this is the team you're

0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:49.160
<v Speaker 1>you're mentioning. The frustrations are building, and they're there, and

0:29:49.200 --> 0:29:51.120
<v Speaker 1>the fans feel it, and we feel it, and the

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:53.880
<v Speaker 1>team certainly feels it. So now you have an opportunity,

0:29:53.920 --> 0:29:56.520
<v Speaker 1>with ten days between games, to go out there, get

0:29:56.560 --> 0:29:59.480
<v Speaker 1>everyone on the same page, and go against a very

0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:02.600
<v Speaker 1>beautiful Arizona Cardinals team. I think this is one of

0:30:02.640 --> 0:30:05.360
<v Speaker 1>those games that if you leave Arizona in your oh

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:09.440
<v Speaker 1>and three, yikes, I mean that. I think that's when

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:12.440
<v Speaker 1>you start sitting in a little bit. Okay, what's realistic

0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.240
<v Speaker 1>for this team for this season? I don't think we're

0:30:14.240 --> 0:30:15.960
<v Speaker 1>there yet. I think a lot of the things that

0:30:16.040 --> 0:30:19.200
<v Speaker 1>happened in the first two weeks are very, very self inflicted.

0:30:19.280 --> 0:30:21.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not like they were just man handled by the

0:30:21.440 --> 0:30:24.800
<v Speaker 1>other team. I think they're extremely you know, self inflicted wounds.

0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:26.800
<v Speaker 1>And that's why we're walking at O and two right now.

0:30:26.840 --> 0:30:30.240
<v Speaker 1>But this is a game that you get a little

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 1>worried about if you're going in a halftime and you're

0:30:32.960 --> 0:30:35.600
<v Speaker 1>down to of course, I think, look, we've all hit

0:30:35.640 --> 0:30:38.480
<v Speaker 1>on it. The self inflicted wounds are one this team

0:30:38.560 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't look like a confident bunch right now. And

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:43.120
<v Speaker 1>I think that's something in Trey Boston alluded to. I mean,

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:45.200
<v Speaker 1>you certainly saw it in the second half of the offense.

0:30:45.360 --> 0:30:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Just every time they took the field, it just wasn't

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:51.320
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't there. I mean that the belief factor, I

0:30:51.320 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 1>think was something that the entire stadium felt. Um. But

0:30:54.880 --> 0:30:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I think there are other things that just have to

0:30:57.240 --> 0:31:00.640
<v Speaker 1>get short of the protection. I I don't care who's

0:31:00.640 --> 0:31:03.680
<v Speaker 1>playing quarterback. If they're not able to keep guys off

0:31:03.880 --> 0:31:05.920
<v Speaker 1>the guy who's got to deliver the football, it's gonna

0:31:05.920 --> 0:31:07.760
<v Speaker 1>be a long day, along night, whatever it is. And

0:31:07.760 --> 0:31:09.840
<v Speaker 1>that's what we saw against the Buccaneers. Shaquille Barrett with

0:31:09.880 --> 0:31:12.720
<v Speaker 1>eight quarterback pressures. I mean, that guy, he was a

0:31:12.720 --> 0:31:16.160
<v Speaker 1>game wrecker and you just you just can't have can't

0:31:16.160 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 1>have that happen if we expect to see this offense

0:31:18.120 --> 0:31:21.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of snap out of it. Um. So, the protection

0:31:21.440 --> 0:31:24.640
<v Speaker 1>issues and then defensively, like you said, Caroline and Will,

0:31:24.720 --> 0:31:26.600
<v Speaker 1>you've helped me with that great stat this week for

0:31:26.680 --> 0:31:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that story. When this team wins a turnover battle, the

0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:32.000
<v Speaker 1>last twenty times they've done it, they're eighteen and two.

0:31:32.400 --> 0:31:35.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, if the then if that nothing else, they

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.440
<v Speaker 1>win the turnover battle, that at least puts him in

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:39.560
<v Speaker 1>a chance to win so and that and that requires,

0:31:39.720 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 1>as you mentioned, taking it away but also protecting it,

0:31:42.840 --> 0:31:44.600
<v Speaker 1>and that's been an issue through two weeks. Well, there

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.080
<v Speaker 1>are certainly a lot of things that could play out

0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:48.800
<v Speaker 1>over the course of this season, but if you look

0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:51.960
<v Speaker 1>around the NFC South, the Panthers are not out of it.

0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:54.400
<v Speaker 1>It is a crazy, crazy league. We talked about some

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:56.880
<v Speaker 1>of the injuries earlier in this podcast. Drew Brees is

0:31:56.920 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 1>added to that, making this a really interesting to vision

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:02.120
<v Speaker 1>and one that even though we're talking about an O

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:04.800
<v Speaker 1>and two Panthers team still looking for their identity, looking

0:32:04.800 --> 0:32:07.840
