Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio for two on this Wednesday, Dan and The
Speaker 1: Danna's Dan Patrick Show. We'll head back to the combine.
Speaker 1: Rich Eisen will join us coming up in a moment,
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson a little bit later on as well. We
Speaker 1: will get to your phone calls. I think we settled
Speaker 1: on a poll question at least for hour one. I
Speaker 1: don't know if that bleeds over to our two Seaton O'Connor, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're still workshopping something on the QB Pushka. But most
Speaker 1: people don't seem to have a lot of faith in
Speaker 1: the combine. Okay, yeah, right now now it's up to
Speaker 1: eighty four percent say that combine is not really useful. Okay.
Speaker 1: By the way, you can watch The Office like never before.
Speaker 1: The Office super Fan season six now streaming exclusively on Peacock,
Speaker 1: which is where you can also find this show on
Speaker 1: Peacock and over three hundred and ninety radio stations around America.
Speaker 1: You can dial us up operator Tyler standing by eight
Speaker 1: seven seven three d P show email address Dpadan Patrick
Speaker 1: dot Com Twitter hand to a DP show. We talked
Speaker 1: about the gms and coaches talking at the combine I
Speaker 1: put talking in parentheses because they don't want to say anything.
Speaker 1: You know. Here's a classic example, Mike McDaniel, the Dolphins
Speaker 1: head coach, and this is a big story with Tua,
Speaker 1: the decision what are you gonna do with him? And
Speaker 1: here's a head coach who tap dances, and he does
Speaker 1: so for thirty three seconds and says absolutely nothing. Well,
Speaker 1: I think you know, like any other player, you factor
Speaker 1: in every variable. UM. You know, I think you know
Speaker 1: one thing that uh, you know when you're when you're
Speaker 1: talking about those types of decisions. UM, I think it's
Speaker 1: important to recognize that, UM, we have a congruence of
Speaker 1: interests by the Dolphins and the player, UM toa that
Speaker 1: that we both want. Um. Both parties really want him
Speaker 1: to UM play at a very high level for a
Speaker 1: long time for the Miami Dolphins. I think that's the
Speaker 1: first time congruence has been used on this program. Right
Speaker 1: about that. Yes, but he basically did his best to
Speaker 1: not say anything yes. Yes. Point. There's a movie A
Speaker 1: long time ago spies like us, and Chevy Chase's character
Speaker 1: is like a flack for the government's like and though
Speaker 1: for there as such as the Afghanistan, not a borderline
Speaker 1: material as you see it, as we see it, and
Speaker 1: that's what we're doing today. What about the woman from
Speaker 1: miss South Carolina? South Carolina? I believe that not everyone
Speaker 1: has maps such as the other poles have shown. A
Speaker 1: fifth of Americans can't locate the US on a world map.
Speaker 1: Why do you think this is? I personally believe that
Speaker 1: US Americans are unable to do so because Salma, people
Speaker 1: out there in our nation it don't have maps and
Speaker 1: variable um. You know, I think everywhere like such as
Speaker 1: it's such as types of decisions. Um. I think it's
Speaker 1: important to the congruence. Yeah yeah. Rich Eyes in NFL
Speaker 1: network host host of the Rich Eyes and Show, and
Speaker 1: Rich gets to experience all of this. You are, mister Combine,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? You know? Congruents of Interest sounds
Speaker 1: like that band that your friend is trying to invite
Speaker 1: you to come to the bar. I'm playing, Hey, I
Speaker 1: got my cover band, congruents of Interest? Can you you know?
Speaker 1: Thursday night, nine o'clock. You know you want to come
Speaker 1: see it? You know? Like, that's that's what it sounds like.
Speaker 1: I think that's a Jared Leto's band. That's what it
Speaker 1: sounds like. It's cover band. I don't know what they cover,
Speaker 1: but you know it's it's it's just because again, this
Speaker 1: is the first time we're seeing coaches and general managers
Speaker 1: since their exit interviews once their seasons ended, whenever they ended,
Speaker 1: and so we're we're wanting an update on things in
Speaker 1: the NFL media because we want things updated immediately, and
Speaker 1: things can't be updated. It's just like, of course they
Speaker 1: want to a back shore just too want to come back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: can his head handle it? Who the hell knows? Like
Speaker 1: nobody knows so And that's the same thing with Rogers, Dan,
Speaker 1: like we're all waiting for Rogers. When is Rogers going
Speaker 1: to give his decision? And you know, Rogers is being
Speaker 1: accused of many different parts of being you know, a
Speaker 1: diva or dramatic, and you know, none of this, as
Speaker 1: you recall, compares at all to the level of drama
Speaker 1: that Brett Farve put the Packers through while he was
Speaker 1: deciding on his future. I mean, there's technically still time
Speaker 1: before the new league here begins two weeks from today.
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I mean, if he was
Speaker 1: anywhere in the realm of far of drama, he would
Speaker 1: say in two weeks after the new league year began,
Speaker 1: I'm out and then two months later or three months
Speaker 1: later say I want back in. That's far so we
Speaker 1: want things now and we want an answer. You know,
Speaker 1: if I said that, you could get answers to any situation,
Speaker 1: whether it was team or it was a player. The
Speaker 1: one scenario that you if you got that opportunity, would
Speaker 1: be what or who Lamar Jackson? What in the world
Speaker 1: happened last year? Again? I called Ravens and Brown's Week
Speaker 1: fifteen on NFL Network. That was a Saturday game. You
Speaker 1: might have missed, Dan because the Colts had the largest
Speaker 1: blown lead before it, and there was a snow game
Speaker 1: between two of and the Dolphins and the Bills after it.
Speaker 1: You might have you might have missed that one. But
Speaker 1: you know, the Ravens absolutely, in starting Tyler Huntley in
Speaker 1: Week fifteen, expected Lamar back before the end of the season,
Speaker 1: if not the following week. And he never came back.
Speaker 1: And you're hearing he wants more. He wanted he wanted
Speaker 1: more and may want more guaranteed money than to Shaun Watson.
Speaker 1: And that's that's the story. I want to know what
Speaker 1: went behind the scenes. Why didn't he come back. Is
Speaker 1: there something going on between him and the team contract
Speaker 1: related then as to why he didn't want to come
Speaker 1: back because he didn't have a guaranteed contract. And of
Speaker 1: course it does play into what's going on with Burrow
Speaker 1: and the and the Bengals and Herbert and the Chargers
Speaker 1: and Gino Smith and the Seahawks and all of these
Speaker 1: quarterback contracts that are coming up. Who's going to want
Speaker 1: every dollar guaranteed? Who is going to make a stand?
Speaker 1: And Lamar plays into all of it. Yeah, that I've
Speaker 1: had a curiosity about there for almost two years rich
Speaker 1: and you know, with no agent, and now there was
Speaker 1: information leaked to Stephen A. Smith where he doesn't want
Speaker 1: a guaranteed contract, which I was told that was completely opposite.
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you want a guaranteed contract considering the way
Speaker 1: he plays and he's proven more than Deshaun Watson is,
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you say I want what he got? Or
Speaker 1: that's let's start right there. If you don't want a
Speaker 1: guaranteed contract, then sign the contract. It just it feels
Speaker 1: like something there's a square peg round hole here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my spidy sense has been going off about it again.
Speaker 1: The Ravens in my estimation based on what I was
Speaker 1: hearing and what I was, you know, going to say
Speaker 1: and what I did say with Kurt Warner on that
Speaker 1: that Saturday broadcast with the Browns Ravens is he's expected
Speaker 1: back then? He never returned and they started Tyler Huntley
Speaker 1: in a playoff game. Dan like, what is up with that?
Speaker 1: You know? And so there there's just something that doesn't
Speaker 1: square and I'd love to know all about it. We're
Speaker 1: talking to Rich Eisen NFL Network hoast. They will have
Speaker 1: coverage with the combine starting later today and tomorrow now
Speaker 1: through March fifth. We had Tom Pedalicero on and I said,
Speaker 1: how important is Bryce Young's hype? And he said not
Speaker 1: as important as really how much he weighs, like their
Speaker 1: durability more so, not his hype. Um, when when do
Speaker 1: we find out how tall and how much Bryce? I
Speaker 1: think the way they should have these guys weigh in
Speaker 1: like a fight where they together and they stare at
Speaker 1: each other, and um. They used to do it in
Speaker 1: public and underwear until Roger Goodell saw it for the
Speaker 1: first time truly and said, we're not doing that anymore. Um,
Speaker 1: We're gonna do these wag ins behind the scenes. But um,
Speaker 1: long story short is it's in the next day or two.
Speaker 1: I have that information somewhere. Yeah. Um, but look, there's
Speaker 1: tonight and tomorrow are the nights where it's really the
Speaker 1: most Well I know you heard, I heard your fans
Speaker 1: think it's not that important. The combine was created to
Speaker 1: get the kids measured and absolutely looked at by docs
Speaker 1: or doctors. That's what this thing is for. And now
Speaker 1: a lot of it is about meeting the prospects in
Speaker 1: an interview room, and everyone's going to get blown away
Speaker 1: by Bryce Young's football intelligence. You hear FBI as a phrase,
Speaker 1: football intelligence. They'll be blown away by his tape. And
Speaker 1: then there'll be somebody in the room who might be
Speaker 1: old school to have just not tall enough, just not
Speaker 1: tall enough. We're not going to go with a guy
Speaker 1: that that short and we're just not strong enough, not
Speaker 1: big enough. And then there will always be somebody in
Speaker 1: the back of the room of strength. Coach raises their
Speaker 1: hand and say, I got that. Don't worry about that.
Speaker 1: So I don't have an answer for who's going to
Speaker 1: be scared off and who's not. Daniel Jeremiah, who I'm
Speaker 1: doing the broadcast with I had him on my show yesterday.
Speaker 1: He believes that Young is just not a fit for
Speaker 1: the Bears or the cold weather, and so folks will
Speaker 1: know that, and I think the Bears will eventually make
Speaker 1: this first overall pick available to whoever does fall for
Speaker 1: Bryce Young. It might be our hosts Indianapolis. But in
Speaker 1: the meantime, they keep talking about their due diligence that
Speaker 1: they'll have to go through because they do need to
Speaker 1: make it seem like they're going to choose this draft
Speaker 1: choice for their own and choose it on a quarterback,
Speaker 1: and Justin Field is just going to be strong enough
Speaker 1: to handle that speculation. One of the topics that I
Speaker 1: know has already come up at the combine. I'm curious
Speaker 1: what you think about this quarterback sneak rule that the
Speaker 1: Eagles took advantage of and were really really proficient at it. Yes,
Speaker 1: what would be the reason why the NFL would eliminate that?
Speaker 1: Because they just don't want to play looking like a
Speaker 1: rugby scrum. They want they want plays where you can
Speaker 1: see who's lined up and fans it's easy to see,
Speaker 1: and it's just not like, Okay, here's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 1: We're just gonna turn the game into rugby rugby, and
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be a ring of people just shoving
Speaker 1: each other around. Like that's that's not what the league wants.
Speaker 1: But I do know that some folks believe it opens
Speaker 1: up possibilities that you can run other plays out of
Speaker 1: that formation, you know, and and that, and that there
Speaker 1: could be statue of liberty plays, you know, behind the
Speaker 1: back handoffs and you don't know who has it, jump
Speaker 1: passes in the like. Um So to me, the Competition
Speaker 1: Committee when they they they they meet, they need to
Speaker 1: do three things. They need to make roughing the pass
Speaker 1: or calls that have been thrown, flags that have been
Speaker 1: thrown for roughing the passer. They need to send that
Speaker 1: thing to the sky judge, which they don't refer to
Speaker 1: it as that. They call it replay assist or video assist.
Speaker 1: That is used to sometimes spot the ball or know
Speaker 1: that somebody's knee was down so forward progress stops. There's
Speaker 1: enough time, Let the refs huddle, let somebody take a
Speaker 1: look at it upstairs and review it and tell the
Speaker 1: guys or ladies pick it up or it's good, and
Speaker 1: then make the call. That's number one. Number two is
Speaker 1: we got to get rid of fumbling the ball through
Speaker 1: the end zone giving the ball back to the defense.
Speaker 1: I hate that rule. With a passion team gives up
Speaker 1: ninety yards on defense, but they get the ball back
Speaker 1: because somebody fumbles the ball one inch beyond the pylon
Speaker 1: as opposed to one inch in front of the pylon,
Speaker 1: which would cause them to keep it. And the third
Speaker 1: thing they need to do is give me a damn
Speaker 1: seat on the competition committee already, so I can get
Speaker 1: in the room on the table, Dan, Yes, okay, I
Speaker 1: am somebody that should be in that room. There is
Speaker 1: an iron rich end Eisen, So I'm using this platform
Speaker 1: for myself. Well, I help John Facenta get into the
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Now I needed a new tame influence.
Speaker 1: I woke up today and I said to my wife,
Speaker 1: I need a new task. I need a new mission,
Speaker 1: a crusade. And now I have it. I get rich
Speaker 1: Eisen on the Company Titian committee. Yeah, they should, somebody should,
Speaker 1: somebody should represent the fan. You always hear that, you know,
Speaker 1: let's change the catch rule. If it's fifty people in
Speaker 1: a bar, they can tell it's a catch, then let's
Speaker 1: change the catch rule. You know, fifty people in a bar,
Speaker 1: they can change the tough rule. Let's change the tough rule.
Speaker 1: Let me represent the fifty people in a bar. Maybe
Speaker 1: a wine bar, but bar nonetheless, bar none nonetheless. I
Speaker 1: would love if we went to the fifty people in
Speaker 1: a bar to decide some of these calls in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Was that Let the refs huddle up, Let's go to
Speaker 1: some bar in Iowa, and let's get it done correct
Speaker 1: right in the heartland, have fun there, Thank you good
Speaker 1: to talk to you songs. That's the popular Rich Eisen
Speaker 1: NFL network host and a host of The Rich Eisen
Speaker 1: Show sneak in a phone call or two once again.
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson in an hour from Now, Doug in North
Speaker 1: Carolina starts this off. Good morning, Doug, what's on your mind? Well? Dan?
Speaker 1: In the first hour you were talking about a crazy
Speaker 1: wanted to retire, and I'm I'm using that as an
Speaker 1: opportunity to beg you and the Danets to retire. Another
Speaker 1: phrase from the show. I've been listening for three years
Speaker 1: and there's a phrase that I've heard about ten thousand times.
Speaker 1: I think Polly is the worst defender, but I can't
Speaker 1: stand don't sleep on it. I just hate pet phrase,
Speaker 1: and I think I've heard Polly say don't sleep on
Speaker 1: a meat love sandwich before. I just as well. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, let's go around the room. You know, maybe
Speaker 1: the audience can tell us there's other phrases that are
Speaker 1: used on this show. I'm saying that I need to
Speaker 1: retire draft capital. I heard that probably ten times yesterday
Speaker 1: on ESPN Draft Capital that the Bears. You know, if
Speaker 1: you trade justin fields, the draft capital the number of
Speaker 1: teams in the first round, you have two picks. Therefore,
Speaker 1: they have a lot of draft capital. Yes, I just
Speaker 1: saw this note they have the amount of the compensatory
Speaker 1: picks Dan the fewest picks in the draft. The Broncos,
Speaker 1: Panthers and Vikings only have five picks in this draft.
Speaker 1: Those teams are low on um drafts. Yeah, but we
Speaker 1: don't do that. We don't. We don't bring up the
Speaker 1: DC phrase. We don't do that anymore. No, don't sleep on.
Speaker 1: I gotta how about this never nap on the abilities
Speaker 1: of never nap on, don't snooze. Let's take a break.
Speaker 1: It sounds like a lot of fun, though, you're just
Speaker 1: open the floodgates, like, hey, tell us everything else that
Speaker 1: annoys you five hours. Yeah, you're right, there's your extra
Speaker 1: hour for Yeah, uh my bad. We probably shouldn't open
Speaker 1: up that Pandora's box there. Hey, where are we on
Speaker 1: tailgate moonshine? Oh man, we are extremely close. Okay, by
Speaker 1: the end of the week, perhaps as early as tomorrow. Okay,

Speaker 1: Eastern there'll be a new batch put up for sale.
Speaker 1: Very good chance. Okay, and as as up the last
Speaker 1: two times we did it sold out in less than
Speaker 1: forty minutes. Quick, but we'll let you know. We got

Speaker 1: even know the name of this band. There's one for me.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, back in the day, yea, yeah, I thought
Speaker 1: that Marv was handling the music. Here you were Casey Cason.
Speaker 1: Who's Casey Kayson? He used to do they? Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: Casey Cayson. Oh good. Yeah. I don't know if this
Speaker 1: is a coincidence or by design, but this just in.
Speaker 1: As a result of an ongoing investigation into the January fifteen,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, fatal crash that occurred in Athens, Georgia,
Speaker 1: the Athens Clark County Police Department has secured arrest warrants
Speaker 1: for Jalen Carter for reckless driving and racing. He, of course,
Speaker 1: is the Georgia defensive tackle and expected to be one
Speaker 1: of the top five picks in the draft. He's also
Speaker 1: scheduled to meet with the media at the Combine at
Speaker 1: ten thirty Eastern. The investigation found that Chandler Lacroix, driver
Speaker 1: and Jalen Carter, who was driving another vehicle or operating
Speaker 1: their vehicles in a manner consistent with racing. Shortly after
Speaker 1: leaving the downtown Athens area at around two thirty am,
Speaker 1: Lacroix's blood alcohol concentration was point one ninety seven. At
Speaker 1: the time of the crash. Investigators determined that alcohol impairment, racing,
Speaker 1: reckless driving in speed when significant. We're significant contributing factors
Speaker 1: to that crash. Now, there's nothing that says attaches Carter
Speaker 1: to alcohol. I don't know what is blood alcohol level was.
Speaker 1: They don't have that in the report here. But Jalen
Speaker 1: Carter was scheduled to meet with the media and that
Speaker 1: was going to be at ten thirty eastern. Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 1: According to a couple of reporters who are at the
Speaker 1: combine at ten thirty am Eastern, they're gonna have Jalen
Speaker 1: Carter in a number of different draftees with little podiums
Speaker 1: and do take questions almost like a media night. Media
Speaker 1: And no one has come out yet, and it might
Speaker 1: be on hold for a little bit. I would think,
Speaker 1: so if I'm jail and Carter that I need to gather.
Speaker 1: I got to get my agent on the phone and
Speaker 1: perhaps a lawyer here, and you're probably not going to
Speaker 1: be speaking to anybody. I would assume then. One of
Speaker 1: the other topics going on at the combine, really, but
Speaker 1: the NFL is the quarterback push play, and the Eagles
Speaker 1: were very successful in the playoffs, certainly in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: The general manager of the Eagles, Howie Roseman, was asked
Speaker 1: about that play. Yeah. I think it's a better question
Speaker 1: for coach Sirianni. All I know is everything we're doing
Speaker 1: is legal and it works, and just because people do
Speaker 1: something that's really good doesn't mean it should be outlawed.
Speaker 1: Looking back on okay, I don't have enough money to
Speaker 1: get fine. Okay, Nick Sirianni, the Eagles head coach, and
Speaker 1: it starts with this question, what in your thoughts on
Speaker 1: the possibility of outlaw and the push play? Yeah, you know, obviously,
Speaker 1: uh you look at that and you think, I think
Speaker 1: some defensive coaches are bringing that up right there, but
Speaker 1: you know, uh, you know, we'll we'll play whatever rules
Speaker 1: that they have. I think it was obviously a very
Speaker 1: successful play for us, right and you guys would know
Speaker 1: the numbers a little bit better. And I haven't hit
Speaker 1: myself scout stuff yet. UM, but very successful play for us.
Speaker 1: But it wasn't the only thing we were doing off
Speaker 1: of it, right, And I think we've had some exciting
Speaker 1: plays that came off of it. Um when the defenses
Speaker 1: were trying to stop, you know, the play that they
Speaker 1: thought was coming. And that's kind of what football is, right.
Speaker 1: The Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel was asked about the
Speaker 1: push play. I mean, I'm pretty sure that every team
Speaker 1: in professional football has attempted the quarterback sneak. And so
Speaker 1: when anytime you're uh, you're entering the grounds of attempt.
Speaker 1: But then you have one team that does it that uh,
Speaker 1: that level of UM, I don't know certainty of outcome
Speaker 1: that that high of a percentage. It will there will
Speaker 1: be attempts to recreate it. Um. However, I wouldn't expect
Speaker 1: it to have the same residual results. UM. I would
Speaker 1: you know, all abide by any rules? UM. So, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I feel like, yeah, I don't feel I
Speaker 1: feel like we're tampering ended we're talking about Okay, can
Speaker 1: you get in trouble for a rule that hasn't been
Speaker 1: made yet? I don't think so. I don't think yeah,
Speaker 1: you're right. I hope the rules not changed. No, right,
Speaker 1: a little levity there combine. Uh, it just feels like
Speaker 1: the Eagles found a loophole and took advantage of it.
Speaker 1: I don't know why that's a problem. Now the NFL
Speaker 1: can say, well, player safety like that can always be
Speaker 1: the exit strat players players safety. Um, I don't know,
Speaker 1: are you putting your quarterback in an unsafe position that
Speaker 1: should be on the Eagles that are you know, are
Speaker 1: you putting them in you know, unsafe you know situation?
Speaker 1: And they're going to say, well, no, he's not. But
Speaker 1: I'm just looking at the NFL. How does the NFL
Speaker 1: satisfy all the other owners and the competition committee and
Speaker 1: say oh, we're not going to do this and here's why.
Speaker 1: And I don't know what that answer would be. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel had another quote too where he was talking
Speaker 1: about the push play and he was like, as a coach,
Speaker 1: he thinks it's awesome that when everyone knows the other
Speaker 1: the other team likely what that play, what that team
Speaker 1: is running, what play that team is running, and you
Speaker 1: still can't stop them. That a team operating that that
Speaker 1: level of just execution is awesome to see. I love
Speaker 1: it because it's just mano a mano, my team and
Speaker 1: we're coming and you know, you could see this in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. The Chiefs knew it was coming and
Speaker 1: couldn't do any Chris Jones one time, you know, jumped
Speaker 1: up and tried to get Jalen Hurts. They had no
Speaker 1: idea how to stop this. I don't have a problem
Speaker 1: if they continue to use this, yeah see, and the
Speaker 1: like the idea that this one play is then gonna lead,
Speaker 1: you know, the NFL into becoming rugby and it's just
Speaker 1: gonna look like one scrum the whole time is a
Speaker 1: little silly. Come on, that's that's a bit of an overrefection.
Speaker 1: We're not going back to nineteen oh eight. How many
Speaker 1: times did they even run this play in the whole
Speaker 1: season compared to everything else. It's a little bit of extreme.
Speaker 1: Although if I was the Eagles, I would run at
Speaker 1: every play in the Super Bowl because they weren't stopping it. Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 1: One thing Mike McDaniel brought up that could be a
Speaker 1: concern for the league is that it's now almost a
Speaker 1: sure thing when the Eagles run this play, and they
Speaker 1: don't like sure things. They like drama, and that's why
Speaker 1: they moved the extra point, because the extra point was
Speaker 1: an afterthought. New and I wonder if they use safety
Speaker 1: as the guys to get rid of pushing the ball
Speaker 1: carry One thing I would bring up though, If you're
Speaker 1: gonna allow pushing, the defense should be allowed to push. Now.
Speaker 1: They can push their linebackers, could push the lineman on
Speaker 1: quarterback sneaks. I'm sure they could do that, but they
Speaker 1: don't allow them to do it on kicks. So let's
Speaker 1: say there's a field goal and I have two defensive
Speaker 1: linemen right on the gaps. Can I push those guys through? Kind?
Speaker 1: But four guys put that is illegal right now? So
Speaker 1: that means it's a benefit for the offense and a
Speaker 1: thing for the defense. Yeah, another benefit for their own Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, let's go around the room. We'll vote, and
Speaker 1: since there's five of us, we'll be able to come
Speaker 1: up with the majority. Here, Todd, will the NFL have
Speaker 1: the push play next season? Yes? Seaton, it's will they Yeah? No,
Speaker 1: Marv no, Folly, No, they will not. Now I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say yes they will. Should they allow this play? Todd?
Speaker 1: They should not, Seaton, Yes, they should, Marv yes, Polly, No,
Speaker 1: I would say yes they should. Did we decide anything there?
Speaker 1: Are they keeping it go around the room? Todd? Did
Speaker 1: we decide anything there? We did not, Seton. Did we
Speaker 1: decide anything? No, we didn't, Marv h I'm all right,
Speaker 1: I'm all right with it. No. And it may be
Speaker 1: boring because you know, everything in the NFL has to
Speaker 1: do with passing and big plays, and that one's just
Speaker 1: that one has a rugby feel to it. Yeah, Seton,
Speaker 1: there's I get that some plays, like say like on
Speaker 1: the field goal like we were talking about, right, or
Speaker 1: maybe you can't line up over the center because it's
Speaker 1: dangerous for the center. Right, that's got to be done
Speaker 1: through some history and some this is obviously a dangerous
Speaker 1: play for that one specific player. We're going to save
Speaker 1: them a little bit, yes, But this one that this
Speaker 1: just it doesn't feel like there's a history of injuries
Speaker 1: that are coming from this. It just feels like the
Speaker 1: Eagles are too good at it this season, so let's
Speaker 1: get rid of it. And that feels silly, Yeah, Pa,
Speaker 1: it is weird though arbitrary NFL Roy Lot you could
Speaker 1: push the ball carrier, you can't pull the ball carrier
Speaker 1: what's the difference? You know, Like, if I'm offensive Liman
Speaker 1: and I see Jalen Hurts rush and you're trying to
Speaker 1: struggle for a first down, I go behind him and
Speaker 1: push him in the butt, but I can't grab him
Speaker 1: by the jersey and pull him. What's the difference. You're
Speaker 1: trying to help him. Chris in Puerto Rico, Hey Chris,
Speaker 1: welcome to the program. What's on your mind? Hey? Dan,
Speaker 1: A long time listener. I'm waiting for a flight and
Speaker 1: I was listening to your Guys show and I watched
Speaker 1: the Eagles run that push play and it brought me
Speaker 1: back to my electric football days as a youngster. My
Speaker 1: cousins used to play and they would surround the ball
Speaker 1: carrier with all those guys. You know, I'm sure you're
Speaker 1: familiar with electric football. I think you'd tell you and
Speaker 1: I are about the same. Yeah. So they would put
Speaker 1: all these guys around the guy carrying that little felt
Speaker 1: thing that was the ball, and then they turned the
Speaker 1: machine on and the thing would roll and they would
Speaker 1: just plow through everything. And I would go absolutely bananas,
Speaker 1: and I was like nine years old and scream. But
Speaker 1: every time I see that play, when I saw him
Speaker 1: running it. I'm like, this is electric football. It's turned Chris.
Speaker 1: You needed a competition committee for electric football. I mean
Speaker 1: that's plain and simple. I'm I'm gonna blame pilot error
Speaker 1: here on your part. Needed a competition committee. A couple
Speaker 1: more phone calls in here. Um, let's see Gibbs in
Speaker 1: Virginia beach. Hi Gibbs, welcome back, adp U. One. Uh,
Speaker 1: couple of things. One thing, one excuse me phrase I
Speaker 1: think we can get rid of now is high motor UM.
Speaker 1: I know it's overused. I think we can get rid
Speaker 1: of that UM. And I want one show request from you, guys.
Speaker 1: I think rich And I was hoping you would bring
Speaker 1: this up in the interview by a great interview by
Speaker 1: the way, as always. Uh. He ran the forty yard
Speaker 1: dash last year, and I believe he clocked out at
Speaker 1: six point one six. Um, And I was learning if
Speaker 1: we could UH get a dan at Combine on Friday
Speaker 1: for meet Friday and UH run the forty yards on
Speaker 1: the forty yard dash, I'd love to see um Fritzie
Speaker 1: run a three cone. But does any day that think
Speaker 1: they can take down six one six? Oh? Let's see,
Speaker 1: does anybody think they're faster than now. See, I want
Speaker 1: to be careful here because I've done this before with Rich.
Speaker 1: Where I go, I could run faster than that, Richard's
Speaker 1: raising money. Rich did this on his own. Rich wasn't going, hey,
Speaker 1: we're in competition. It was how fast can I run this?
Speaker 1: Can I get better? And he was raising money for
Speaker 1: Saint Jude and and so that's where I don't want
Speaker 1: to get into this, Hey we're faster than rich Eisa,
Speaker 1: because then it takes away from what rich is doing
Speaker 1: and he's raised a lot of money. But that said,
Speaker 1: I would like to Fritzie. You know, the only cones
Speaker 1: he's taken down are ice cream cones. There's yeah, facts, Yes,
Speaker 1: it's been fast. Let's see Marvin said he used to
Speaker 1: be fast, didn't you? I can run under six right now?
Speaker 1: Casually said that right now? You can under six? Yeah,
Speaker 1: forty yards under six seconds. You just said you could?
Speaker 1: Yeah I did, Yeah, okay, I'd say under five. I
Speaker 1: said under six. Okay, that's all I ask. Why what's going?
Speaker 1: Just don't have to be contentious. I just said, can
Speaker 1: you beat that? We try it again? Mark, Do you
Speaker 1: think you could better Richus? I think I can Okay,
Speaker 1: that sounds a little better. Seaton, Do you think that
Speaker 1: you could run forty yard dash under six seconds? I
Speaker 1: really have absolutely no idea. I would say probably not
Speaker 1: at this point, but yeah, I really don't know. I
Speaker 1: think you could. Yeah, yeah, I think you could. Todd
Speaker 1: nothing very good shot. I don't think you could. Thinking
Speaker 1: about an eight eighty three, I don't think which I
Speaker 1: could live with. Could you run a forty under ten seconds?
Speaker 1: That's very insulting. I would hope I can do that.
Speaker 1: Can you put like one of those you pizzas attached
Speaker 1: to a string and then you like you're running after
Speaker 1: you gotta give me like a goal if I had
Speaker 1: a little miniature hotdogs? Yea, let yeah, then for sure,
Speaker 1: maybe I'll even break eight seconds. Okay, PAULI the most
Speaker 1: competitive guy in the room. Could you run under six
Speaker 1: seconds forty yard dash? I always think I could run
Speaker 1: faster than whatever are you brought up? It seems like
Speaker 1: Rich probably is in pretty decent shape. He looks in
Speaker 1: pretty decent shape when I see him, and he's not
Speaker 1: a heavy guy, and he I think he trains for
Speaker 1: this little bit. I think about that time is tough.
Speaker 1: That said, I think I can, but you can be
Speaker 1: in good shape. That doesn't mean you're a good athlete. No,
Speaker 1: but this is not an athletic event. This is Riches
Speaker 1: running straight ahead. There's athletic sus him in here. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: by Friday? What does it day? Wednesday? Yeah? Oh man?
Speaker 1: How about Friday next year? Now? I think I could,
Speaker 1: Yes time. Doesn't he run that? Like in a suit
Speaker 1: and tie? I don't know what kind of shoes he has?
Speaker 1: Thought you got a factor that it? Do you know
Speaker 1: that my brother, my oldest brother, tried out for the
Speaker 1: Oklahoma Outlaws of the USFL. I think Doug Williams was
Speaker 1: with them, and they had a tryout and my brother
Speaker 1: was going to work. He had wing tips on, and
Speaker 1: he had a shirt and tie and he played college football,
Speaker 1: and he decided that he was going to stop in
Speaker 1: and do a forty yard dash. He was going to
Speaker 1: try out in wing tips and a shirt and tie.
Speaker 1: And he made the front page of the Cincinnati Enquirer
Speaker 1: where you just saw him, right, he didn't tell us.
Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, he's on the front page where
Speaker 1: he's running to try to, you know, make an USFL team,
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma Outlaws. Yeah, or I think it might have
Speaker 1: been he was going to work and decided he wasn't
Speaker 1: going to go to work. He was just going to
Speaker 1: go try out, and I respect it now he did.
Speaker 1: I think he uh did a somersault like he tripped
Speaker 1: up and you know, but you know he completed the
Speaker 1: process there. He didn't get signed by the Ocloma outlaws.
Speaker 1: Glenn in Pennsylvania, Hi, Glenn, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 1: They d, hell, are you guys doing today? Great? Good?
Speaker 1: Good good? Um, I want to weigh in on this
Speaker 1: thing with this push play, and if just give me
Speaker 1: a few seconds to formulate this thought, because if you
Speaker 1: remember back, every time anybody in the NFL does anything
Speaker 1: really good for a period of time and sort of
Speaker 1: dominates it, they always change a rule. So it wouldn't
Speaker 1: be the first time they did this to someone just
Speaker 1: because it's the Eagle. Think back to Colin Kaepernick running
Speaker 1: all over the Packers that year in the playoffs, and
Speaker 1: also they're like, you know what, you can hit the
Speaker 1: quarterback again, even though he's running outside of pocket. He
Speaker 1: was now a runner, and so they kind of changed
Speaker 1: that up a little bit. Then they were like, remember
Speaker 1: all the guys crossing routes in the NFL by receivers
Speaker 1: can't hit a defenseless guy all of a sudden, you know,
Speaker 1: they made that, they outlawed that, they made that harder
Speaker 1: that play. And how many times with protecting the quarterback
Speaker 1: he can't hit the guy after he throws a ball,
Speaker 1: even if you were in the act. It's there's so
Speaker 1: many things that once a team seems to do it
Speaker 1: with any consistency, do it really good? The NFL says, well,
Speaker 1: we gotta like take a look at this, you know.
Speaker 1: I know that's why I don't have a problem with
Speaker 1: what the Eagles do. If you're telling me that it
Speaker 1: doesn't impact safety measures, and it feels like everything is about, oh,
Speaker 1: you got to protect the players. Okay, just tell me
Speaker 1: how that's impacting players safety, Like, what kind of study
Speaker 1: do you have on that. I just think the Eagles
Speaker 1: found that they did something really well, and now it's
Speaker 1: up to the NFL to catch up with them. I
Speaker 1: don't think you go up now, you guys did it
Speaker 1: really well, we're gonna take it away from you. I
Speaker 1: just I don't think it's fair to the Eagles. Let
Speaker 1: me take a break. More phone calls coming up back

Speaker 1: me a hell yeah all right? The one phrase I
Speaker 1: don't like, Yeah, I liked the song. If he would
Speaker 1: have said fastball by you, speedball by you, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it just sounds better though, a speedball yeah, Like it
Speaker 1: just works better In the song PAULI, actually, did you
Speaker 1: search on the speedball. Yeah, we did find that the
Speaker 1: phrase was used in like the forties and fifties in
Speaker 1: some media outlets for a person who threw the ball fast,
Speaker 1: but it never really caught on, like it wasn't an
Speaker 1: actual pitch like the fastball, curveball, slider. Yeah, it's been
Speaker 1: but the phrase have been used in the olden days,
Speaker 1: and then it became something else in the drug culture
Speaker 1: later on. With a speed ball that's positive, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: let yeah, worst results, but Springsteen with a speedball by
Speaker 1: him make you look like a fool boy. Okay, Oh,
Speaker 1: let's see. How do you guys realize the Bucks have
Speaker 1: won fifteen consecutive game exactly? I didn't think so. Uh,
Speaker 1: Jannie is not going to win the MVP this year.
Speaker 1: It feels like it's the Joker now. The Joker had
Speaker 1: his one hundredth career triple double. He had that last night.
Speaker 1: Nuggets hadn't win over the Rockets. They are a twenty
Speaker 1: four and oh when he has a triple double, they
Speaker 1: won twenty eight straight games dating back to last year
Speaker 1: when he has a triple double. So out of his
Speaker 1: one hundred games where he's had triple doubles. The Nuggets
Speaker 1: are eighty two and eighteen. Stat of the Day, SAT
Speaker 1: Day past stat of the day, stat of the day.
Speaker 1: Yere comes that one day. But I think we get
Speaker 1: caught up in the triple double again, just like Russell
Speaker 1: Westbrook junior the third it's so simple, Oh my god, tripled.
Speaker 1: He averaged a triple double. You know. The last person
Speaker 1: was Oscar Robertson who asked, so it there was there
Speaker 1: was history, there was a Hall of Famer attached to it,
Speaker 1: and everybody bought into Russell Westbrook was the most valuable
Speaker 1: player because he had an average of double figures in points, rebounds,
Speaker 1: and assist and the joker. The stats are wonderful and
Speaker 1: they've played well this year in a very difficult Western Conference,
Speaker 1: a lot of competition there. Do you factor in lack
Speaker 1: of postseason success moving forward on? So he's going to
Speaker 1: move into this category? Will Chamberlain, Bill Russell and Larry Bird.
Speaker 1: Those are the guys who won three MVPs in a row.
Speaker 1: Mike never did it, Magic never did it, Kareem never
Speaker 1: did it. And I think there are some old school
Speaker 1: voters writers who probably look at this and go, really
Speaker 1: the Joker back to back to back. How many players
Speaker 1: have had a season where they average more than thirty points,
Speaker 1: more than twelve rebounds in more than five assists per game.
Speaker 1: Kareem Abdul Jabbar did it in nineteen seventy two. That's
Speaker 1: the last player. Jannis is averaging thirty one, twelve and five.
Speaker 1: They've won fifteen games in a row. But he's not
Speaker 1: gonna win the VP. Joe ellen Bead's not going to
Speaker 1: win the MVP, although he doesn't deserve the MVP this year,
Speaker 1: although he's scoring a lot. Yannis is I think we've
Speaker 1: gotten into Jannis is now in Patrick Mahomes territory. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: okay's of course he's great, but the Joker is still unique.
Speaker 1: It feels like because you don't usually watch him, if
Speaker 1: it's a highlight, it's probably going to be a nice pass,
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be maybe a three, it's not going
Speaker 1: to be a dunk, not gonna be a block shot.
Speaker 1: He doesn't fit in with today's highlight culture, but he's
Speaker 1: putting up numbers that are undeniable. Jannis does put up
Speaker 1: numbers and he gives you highlights there, but he's not
Speaker 1: going to win the MVP this year. These are the
Speaker 1: guys since nineteen fifty who have averaged thirty twelve and five. Jannis,
Speaker 1: Kareem Wilt did it twice, Oscar did it once in
Speaker 1: Elgin Baylor. That's it. So you haven't had this in
Speaker 1: the last forty five years, which is pretty remarkable. Actually
Speaker 1: fifty years fifty years since Kareem did. But that's not enough.
Speaker 1: But he's won an mv he's won a title, and
Speaker 1: for some reason, it feels like, what's he have to
Speaker 1: do to win another one? And I wonder did he
Speaker 1: get to the point where now he's competing against himself? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Mark the Gannis have to pull off a seventy three
Speaker 1: and nine type of season where he's putting up these
Speaker 1: same numbers. I think if he wins another title, then
Speaker 1: because do we hold quarterbacks like Brett Farve and all
Speaker 1: of his MVPs. He won one Super Bowl and that's
Speaker 1: thanks to Desmond Howard on a kickoff return Peyton manning
Speaker 1: all those MVPs. He really won one Super Bowl. But
Speaker 1: do because now Jannis or any of these MVP candidates,
Speaker 1: you know, are you winning championship? Joe Lmbiad is not
Speaker 1: Janis won one. Yeah, mar So Yoki, He's won the
Speaker 1: past two MVP awards. Are writers looking for a reason
Speaker 1: not to give him the MVP Award? I thought that,
Speaker 1: but you know, I'm looking at the odd DraftKings has
Speaker 1: odds on this, and they're like, he's the overwhelming favor
Speaker 1: to be the MVP, Which is fine with me. I
Speaker 1: don't want to vote against somebody because hey, they're not
Speaker 1: exciting or they don't fit into today's highlight culture. He
Speaker 1: plays basketball. I have no problem with that. He plays
Speaker 1: at a consistently high level. His team is good in
Speaker 1: the regular season. It's a regular season award. I know,
Speaker 1: we have a problem with this. It's like, you know,
Speaker 1: Dirk Navitsky once he won an MVP. You know, I
Speaker 1: think they bowed out in the first round that year,
Speaker 1: but he did win an NBA championship, so that sort
Speaker 1: of validates somebody. You know, Russell Westbrook, you're not going
Speaker 1: to win another MVP, but he did have that statistical
Speaker 1: anomaly where you're going, he's doing something that hasn't been
Speaker 1: done in sixty years. Well, he's got to be the MVP. Yeah,
Speaker 1: point right. So if Yannis shot less and passed more
Speaker 1: and got his passing numbers up. Would that be better
Speaker 1: because Yannis or you know, thirty one, twelve and three.
Speaker 1: If you're adding steals and blocks, he's at fifty point three.
Speaker 1: His total numbers, well, okay, if he averaged twenty five
Speaker 1: a game and ten assists a game and he was
Speaker 1: up at that triple double with the Joker, then would
Speaker 1: we have a debate? Is that? Is that the separation here?
Speaker 1: Mister triple double Magic Johnson coming up,
