It'll be the Cardinals and the Rams. 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.599 Available on the ESPN Plus. Marcus, great to have you back. 0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:29.760 Are you a no chance guy when it comes to 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.240 like the Steelers against the Chiefs or the Eagles against 0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:37.280 the Buccaneers. Because I called out Rob Nikovich, he said 0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:41.320 the Eagles have no chance. Well, if if the Eagles 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.120 win the game, Nikovich should sit down for a week. 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:49.240 He should be suspended for a week. All right, he should? 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:53.880 He should, And I'm i am absolutely not. Ain't no 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:56.520 chance guy played in this league. I've been playing football 0:00:56.560 --> 0:01:00.120 too long since pee weeek football. Yeah, the South benarusls 0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.720 inner to know that teams have no chance? Okay, now 0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:07.280 now there are there are different levels to no chance. DP. 0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:10.399 You remember those games when you were in like middle 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.520 school and nobody was over four foot ten and your 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.920 whole basketball team was like five, seven and above, that's 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:21.080 when you have no chance. But in the NFL, based 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:23.880 on what we've seen a DP, I bet he would 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:26.080 have said the Jacksonville jack Wall has had no chance 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:28.880 against the coach the last week of the season, you 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:30.640 know what I'm saying. So I bet he would have 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.400 said the Jets had no chance last year to beat 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.839 the Las Vegas Raiders at the end of the game 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:40.200 last year. So look, I have always been one of 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:45.440 those guys that looks at matchups, that looks at individual performances, 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:47.840 and if you got a guy like t J. Watter 0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:50.600 on your team, you got a chance. And I keep 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:53.200 telling people that, and that doesn't mean that they're gonna 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.000 win the game. But the Pittsburgh Stills have a chance 0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:59.680 because they in the playoffs. And I'm telling you week nine, 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.200 everybody probably said they had no chance in all to 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.760 get into the postseason. So I'm not a no chance 0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:08.880 of guy. When you go into the playoffs. As a 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.880 former defenship player, is it spoken about trying to take 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:16.679 the opposing quarterback out? Thank you? Getting out out? Not 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:20.720 out DP? No, not out. I mean, if it happens, 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:24.520 we're not mad about it. Let me say that if 0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:26.640 it happens, we're not bad about it. But it's a 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.480 healthy respect man. You know how to go and the 0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:32.560 game has changed. I'm sure guys back in the old 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.800 days would have would have said yes to that. But 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.440 what I played, we wanted to We wanted to rough 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:41.520 them up enough where they couldn't be as effective as 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:45.440 they were. But taking them out if it, if it's happenstance, 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:49.720 then we are not going to cry any tears about it. 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.359 Like when I was in the division with the Kyle Boys, 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.000 I wouldn't have been mad if we knocked Downovan mcnaal 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.000 about the game. I wouldn't have been mad if we 0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:59.400 knocked Eli out of the game. And I'm bringing up 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.120 guys that me from getting to the playoffs Dan, So 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:07.880 I'm still kind of but that feeling. Did you ever 0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:11.040 feel sorry for a quarterback during a game? Hell no, 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.040 Hell no, I ain't even feel sorry for our own. 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:23.040 I was. We we are out there banging. I'm a 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:26.360 defensive line. We out there banging sixty plus plays a game, 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.880 you know, and the quarterback get hit and everybody has 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:32.880 a moment of silence, and the whole stadium got an 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:35.960 exit and re under the stadium to make sure everybody's okay. 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:38.240 I ain't give a damn about no quarterbacks getting hurt 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.400 or roughed up. I don't even care. All right, give 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.640 me the underdog with the best chance of winning San 0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:47.160 Francisco forty nine Ers. And you know how much I 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.920 love the Dallas Cowboys, but the brand of football that 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:55.360 they play is just difficult to sustain the level that 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:57.840 you need to sustain for four quarters. When they're gonna 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:00.839 keep coming down ill, They're gonna be physical, They're gonna 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.080 stick to their game play. They went down seventeen nothing 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:06.560 to the Rams last week and never change their identity 0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:10.440 one bit. I will say this, though, DP, I really 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:12.760 want the Dallas Cowboys to put this game in Jimmy 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:18.080 Garoppolo's hands. I feel comfortable with that. The and and look, 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:21.080 I'm a I'm not a Jimmy G detractor. I'm just 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:26.040 not a Jimmy G lover. I don't trust Jimmy Garoppolo 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.760 like a lot of people trust them. When people say 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:33.240 my body physically, DP, when people say Jimmy Garoppolo led 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.320 the forty nine ers to a Super Bowl, I break 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.680 out in hives listening to it. You mean the guy 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.840 that threw eight passes in an NFC championship led a 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:46.880 football team to a championship. So if you allow these 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:49.279 guys to be you know, the word that's been thrown 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:51.720 around is physicality, then let me tell you something, bro, 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:55.640 everybody in the day n NFL physical. You ain't getting 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:58.360 them checks or them direct deposits every week. If you're 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:02.720 not physical, you just I have to last long. Most 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.599 teams don't force you to play to run like the 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:09.359 San Francisco Hordy Honors due for an entire game, and 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.160 you just gotta make your mind up that you're gonna 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.040 be disciplined the whole way. But if Jimmy Garoppolo has 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.960 it in his hands, I'll be drinking this clear cup 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:20.320 of coffee watching the game deeply. Does this make me 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.640 look like like a like a small rich person with 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:28.960 a clear if you're if your pinky finger goes up, Marcus, Yeah, 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:32.080 you look a little soft. Okay, I mean nobody's gonna 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:33.719 say it to your face, but I can say it 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:41.080 via zoom. You look soft. I'm looking at the quarterbacks 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:45.960 with the most pressure. Yeah, and I know where I 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:49.000 would start. I think this guy's got the most pressure. 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.640 I'm curious who you think the quarterback who will be 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:57.040 under the most pressure playoff ten DP. This is this 0:05:57.040 --> 0:06:01.400 one's gonna shock you because the normal is Matthew Stafford. 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:06.960 I think that's been like the overall Aaron Rodgers. Has 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:10.680 anybody ever thought about that? Has anybody watched how that 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:15.839 off season transpired. The only way to keep this noise 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:18.560 quiet is to go win a super Bowl because look, 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:21.840 Aaron has played at the MVP level. I think he's 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.440 the MVP. And by the way, Aaron, Aaron is not 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:28.160 my favorite guy. Okay, I don't love to see what 0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:31.120 Aaron Rodgers is talking about, but I do have a 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:34.160 healthy respect for how he's been able to keep his 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.960 game at this level and he's been able to carry 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:42.240 a team for a long time. But DP were sitting 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.720 here not knowing after a restructure contract if he's gonna 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:49.200 return to Green Bay. He spent an entire offseason at 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:53.000 odds with the franchise. He needed players, so they relented 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.080 and brought in Randall Cab. Even though Randall Cab has 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:59.320 been hurt, they made some concessions for him. Does anybody 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.520 think about Aaron Roger's responsibility to the Green a Packers 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:05.120 and the rest of his football team. We expect him 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:08.240 to at least make it to the NFC Championship, and 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.680 that's where the buck has stopped for him for so 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:12.840 many years. He got to get to the Super Bowl 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:16.840 and win it. Man or at some point we gotta say, 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.160 like we do for every other star, he couldn't get 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:23.680 it done. He just couldn't get it done. Yeah, I 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:27.000 agree with you. I think Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.480 are one two on my list. Now I would put 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:33.040 Dak Prescott in there just because he's the quarterback of 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:35.160 the Cowboys. I think the Cowboys are a year ahead 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.000 of schedule because I don't know if they knew what 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.760 they had in Digs and Micah Parsons. Now they realize that, 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:43.280 and you don't want to miss out on this opportunity. 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.600 You know, Ben doesn't have any pressure on him. Joe 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.000 Burrow doesn't have pressure on him, Derek Carr doesn't have 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:54.880 pressure on him. Brady always has pressure, but it feels 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:58.080 like he wants the pressure. Now he's an underdog. He 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.280 didn't get the MVP. Now he's an underdog. He got 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:03.640 a chip on his shoulder. I love that I just 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.000 don't know how good they are because that defense hasn't 0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:10.080 been what it was in the Super Bowl VP. I 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.200 tell people all the time, it's okay, it's not taboo 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:16.640 to say Aaron Rodgers is under pressure. Like how many 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.640 years did we spend talking about Drew Brees in order 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.320 to enter the conversation of the greats. We know Aaron 0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:25.280 Talon is unbelievable. But in order for Drew the end 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.920 of the conversation of the greats, to have him be 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.680 a part of the all time top five or whatever 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.920 you want to put in conversation, he needed more than one. 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:37.520 Aaron Rodgers has been stopped in the NFC Championship a 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.679 lot to him. Now, imagine if this was Imagine if 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:45.600 this was a Lebron James getting stopped in the Eastern 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:49.280 or Western Conference finals all at these times, the conversation 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:52.320 that would go on. Imagine if this was the Yankees 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.439 when Steinbrenner and they had all of his talent and 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:57.720 spent all of his money and they couldn't make it 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:01.240 out of the comfort out of the series. So I 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:05.600 don't I don't. I don't necessarily equate pressure to if 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:07.120 a guy is going to have the rest of his 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:09.760 career or if he's gonna be good. I equate pressure 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:13.640 to how did you perform what is expected of you? 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:17.240 And then in Aaron's case, he entered a different nuance 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.880 by the battle between him and the Green Bay Packers 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.880 this all season. So I mean, I think it's a 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.640 failure if they don't win a Super Bowl. It was 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.840 all about nothing. Well, I look at the Packers in 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:33.560 twenty twenty thirteen wins, twenty twenty one thirteen wins. The 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:38.600 defense in twenty twenty ranked thirteenth. This year's team ranked 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:43.000 thirteenth in defense. You have home field advantage that Tampa 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:45.360 team that if they do come to town, will not 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.480 be as formidable as they were a year ago. And 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.400 Aaron has not done well in title games even when 0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:54.120 he's hosted those title games. Well, Peyton Manning went through 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.679 this as well, where you know Peyton's playoff record wasn't 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:03.240 very good. But do we hold quarterbacks you accountable in 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.720 a different way than we do other athletes in other 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:09.760 sports Because you mentioned Lebron and you know that there's 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:14.000 certain sports or baseball pitchers players, but when it comes 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:19.199 to quarterbacks, our bottom line is winning championships. But I 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.880 think people don't realize how Aaron has not performed, or 0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.000 at least the Packers haven't. When they get to the 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:28.600 NFC title game, they're not DP because they're blinded by 0:10:28.640 --> 0:10:32.480 all of the greatness in the individual and the talent 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.679 and the balls that we see Aaron Rodgers throw in 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:38.400 the wins and how much he accounts for. Listen, this 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.200 is not a conversation about if Aaron Rodgers is a 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:43.240 Hall of Famer or one of the top quarterbacks ever, 0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:46.320 it's about his resume. The reason why we call Tom 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.000 Brady to go is because of the championships. Tom Brady 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.120 don't have a drop of the talent that a lot 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.680 of quarterbacks we've seen have. Tom Brady don't have Alway talent. 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:58.040 He don't have Dan Marino's talent. He don't have Steve 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:02.280 Young's talent or Aaron Rodgers or Patrick Mahomes. But you know, 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.520 in those moments where you need to be great, it's 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:09.120 what we judge these level of quarterbacks on. And that's 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:12.320 why he's considered the goat. He's considered the goat because 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.680 you would put all of your money in your house 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:18.720 on Tom Brady in the last drive of a football 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:22.000 game to get his team to a championship. Aaron Rodgers 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:24.720 has not done that. Now I'm mad. And Matt Lafleur 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:27.199 last year, I believe that was a lot on him 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.360 of not letting him have the ball in his hands 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.400 in the fourth quarter. But he also had three turnovers. 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.640 He also gave the ball away in that game as well. 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:38.960 So I don't I don't just subscribe to, you know, 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:43.800 individual talent as making you to go as far as 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:46.440 what did you do, how did you elevate in those 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:49.560 particular moments. I fight with Dan Orlovski about this all 0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:52.440 the time. Okay, he you know, he goes to bat 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.200 fairy quarterback because every quarterback is good in the NFL. 0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:58.640 But I tell him all the time, man, we're not 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:01.559 judging Carson Wentz on if he can throw a touchdown 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.280 in the first quarter of a football game, when you 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:07.160 on your first fifteen play script and it's hard as 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.040 hell for the defense to figure out what you're doing, 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:11.560 we judge Carson Wentz. When you're down to Jacksonville and 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:13.920 you throw two damn interceptions or you make a bone 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:16.800 head playing fund of the football, we judge Baker Mayfield 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:19.320 on the Cleveland Browns are good and they get the 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.920 ball into the fourth quarter and he throws an interception 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.480 in the Kansas City game, or he can't get it done, 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:27.600 and then that's where we judge quarterbacks. We see Aaron 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.520 do that all year long, and for some reason in 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:34.240 these NFC championships he cannot overcome that hurdle. So we'll 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.719 see if he can this year. I believe he can. 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.160 I don't think his talent leads itself to not having 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:42.640 that ability. He just hasn't done it. We're talking to 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:47.480 Marcus Spears NFL, NFL Live Monday through Friday at for 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:50.840 Eastern and also they have the wild card game that'll 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.280 be the Cardinals. Look in the DP lookle, I know, 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:56.560 look at you. I know that it's not a gunch 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.640 on a good lunk. It's not a good look place. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:02.440 I got you. You sat Brady in two thy eleven? Yeah, 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:04.760 is that right? I didn't Yeah, I didn't even remember 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.880 what happened DV. I was just like sometimes, you know, 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:10.400 I tell people all the time, man, playing football, sometimes 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:12.960 the play happened and it feel like you're bleinking this over. 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.600 I whooped the offensive lambor whoever was in front of me, 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:18.480 and Brady just happened to be in the way of 0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:22.439 the freight train. You know. So, hey, I got hits. 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:26.000 Believe this DP. I was not a sack guy. I 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:28.400 was considered a bus because of my draft pick. Because 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.280 you know, if you don't get over ninety sacks, then 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:34.400 you sucked on your whole career. Like playing the run 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:37.560 and doing all of that stuff does not matter in 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.040 the grand scheme of things. But I did hit Drew Brees. 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:43.760 I sack Drew Brees, I saged being, I saged Brady, 0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:47.120 I hit Aaron um, got got a pressure on Aaron. 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:49.640 I think I sacked all of the guys that's gonna 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:51.680 go to the Hall of Fame or at least got 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.680 a big hit on them. So I feel really good 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:57.440 about that. How tough was Roethlisberger to bring down? He 0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:03.280 was bigger than me. It's it's like, it's like, uh, 0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:06.040 you know, I'm watching this this this show called yellow Stone, 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:08.040 which is one of the greatest shows ever. I don't 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:09.680 know if you guys have watched the DP if you 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:12.719 have time, watch yeow, I've been watching. It's like when 0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:14.840 them dudes jump off that damn horse and they trying 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:18.480 to wrangle them little them little cows. That's how he 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:22.280 is trying to tap the big Ben man. I like 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:26.200 him to Kim Kong. He's on the umpire State building. Yeah, 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:29.120 those planes that come around him, he just keeps swatting him. 0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:33.520 He's a People don't realize how big certain quarterbacks are 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:38.280 movies and also certain like Cam Newton when when him 0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:42.440 and Kelvin Benjamin walked on the field, I thought, I 0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:46.680 thought your basketball team. I thought it was you know 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:51.000 it was a basketball team. Yeah, man, Yeah, listen DP 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:55.200 when we played so funny story, I played Ben when 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:57.160 I was at LSU. We played Miamil. But how yo, 0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:00.160 when Being was a college and I remember Nick's I've 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:02.240 been telling us, Hey, this guy's gonna be a top 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:06.040 top pick. He's a very good football player and he's big, 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:09.560 so you better bring all you have when you get 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.920 in there to get him on the ground. So Being 0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:14.640 has been like this, DP. You people look at the 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:17.360 game and they wonder why Being came move because Ben 0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:20.720 has taken hits from guys the same size as him 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.560 for a long time and he's still I don't know 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:27.240 how to hell he in the playoffs, and I wouldn't 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:30.560 you got to be crazy to say that being has 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:34.240 no chance in the playoffs? All right, speaking of what 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.840 we were talking about earlier, because I've seen him do 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.680 this too many times. Great to talk to him, that's all. 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:44.280 Love the energy, have a great weekend, and we hope 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:46.640 to talk to here soon. Thank you. DP. Send me 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.480 in one of them trinkets, man, I love, What do 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:50.520 you want? What do you want? I don't know the 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:53.840 If that's not the old mic that you use when 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:57.360 you first started doing radio, then I like that right there. 0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:59.880 I just want something. So next time I'm on your show, 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:03.400 you could see one of yours on my from my feet.

Now, 0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.880 I told I told you the first time. I don't 0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:19.360 fool with Greeny like that. Everybody think I do. I don't. 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.720 I don't mean me and g A all that type 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.600 like that. Now I'm just playing. He just got Jalen Rose. 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.160 You know, he got all of these guys that know 0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:30.320 he got to be super famous.

That's the one 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:51.400 I want with Orlovski. Thank you, Thank you. Thanks for 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:53.840 listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.

He'll be 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:24.879 in the Westwood one booth Saturday night Buffalo it's the 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:28.040 Patriots and the Bills, and then he'll be working sidelines 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:31.200 for the Monday night game with the Cardinals and the Rams, 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:33.879 and he joins us on the program. Always great to 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:36.439 have you. We appreciate you taking some time. Give me 0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:39.879 the loss. That would have the most fallout if I 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:48.120 said Cowboys, Rams, Bucks, Chiefs, Bills or other. Oh that's 0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:55.000 a great question, Dan, I'm gonna I'm gonna say Cowboys. 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:59.200 Maybe I'm gonna go Cowboys. You know, my initial reaction 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:02.800 was the ram just because it would be an awful 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:07.639 look if they took a step back after the trade 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:10.000 they made for Matthew Stafford. I mean, they won a 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:12.600 playoff game last year, they got to the Divisional round 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.119 last year. That would not be a good look for 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:19.199 McVay and Stafford if they weren't able to win a 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:22.480 playoff game this year. But they're kind they're kind of 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:25.439 committed to those guys, right, There really wouldn't be a 0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:27.600 whole lot of fall out. It would still be McVeigh 0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:31.480 and Stafford next year. Cowboys are a little bit different 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:34.440 because if they lose the forty nine Ers, which by 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:37.280 the way, I think is a distinct possibility. I just 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:41.120 recorded the Rostocker podcast. That's the one underdog I picked 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:43.840 a win out right, Dan. I picked the Niners to 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:47.520 win that game because of the amount of teams that 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:52.880 are interested in Kellen Moore and Dan Quinn. I wonder 0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:57.160 if Jerry Jones doesn't think I don't want to lose 0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.800 that guy or that guy, whichever one he choose, and 0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:03.760 alecs to make one of them the head coach and 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:07.119 moves on from Mike McCarthy. You have to acknowledge there's 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:11.200 some possibility of that if the Cowboys lose this game, 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:16.320 especially and there's any type of game management, clock management issue, 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:19.080 anything like that. But if I look at Kellen Moore 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:23.840 and Dan Quinn, who which of those coordinators can they 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:32.440 least afford to lose? It's a good question. The thing 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:35.879 I come back to on that is, how do you 0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:38.320 really know what Kellen Moore is like as a head coach. 0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:42.439 He doesn't have any experience with it. I guess I 0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:46.520 would probably say Kellen Moore. I think he's done a 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:50.560 pretty good job. I agree that dan Quinn did a 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.680 nice job this year, but I feel like they've got 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:56.840 some pretty darn good personnel on defense that he's been 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:00.440 able to take advantage of. Treyvon Digs you or two 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:03.960 Micah Parsons as a rookie. I don't know, they're probably 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:07.119 even My guest though, is that there would be some 0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:11.359 hesitation from Jerry Jones to make Kellen Moore the head coach, 0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:14.439 so he would probably move on from McCarthy and go 0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:17.919 to dan Quinn again. We're there's a whole lot of hypotheticals, 0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:21.280 but that's my guests. You played in cold weather, you 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:24.520 played in Buffalo, you played in New England. How big 0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:27.439 of a deal is this to the players who play? 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:33.080 And what players in particular? If so, really big deal 0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:38.480 to quarterbacks, receivers and kickers. Somebody told me this week. 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:41.240 I didn't realize that I started in one of the 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:45.920 ten coldest games in Buffalo Bill's history. It was two 0:20:45.960 --> 0:20:48.880 thousand and four. Is actually at Cincinnati, if you can 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:52.000 believe that. Dan and I remember the game distinctly because 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:56.239 I went out before the game pregame warmups with just 0:20:56.320 --> 0:20:59.560 a T shirt and shorts on, and Chad Johnson was 0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:02.720 yelling like, hey, Boddy, you're gonna be cold. I was like, 0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:04.960 I'm all right, I'm all right. You know what's funny, 0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:07.720 By the way, I mean, I guess I was three 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:09.880 hundred and fifteen pounds or whatever, and I was maybe 0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:13.920 twenty five years old. I really wasn't that cold. Now 0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:16.440 I'm two hundred and fifty pounds, I'm forty two years old, 0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:20.680 I'm freezing like I get I get five degrees colder 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:23.200 every year. I mean, I don't but by the time 0:21:23.240 --> 0:21:26.200 I'm seventy, I'm gonna move to like Puerto Rico or 0:21:26.240 --> 0:21:29.520 so like. I know why people go south. I get 0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:32.840 way colder every year. When you know what I remember 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:35.240 about that game, So, first of all, it was offensive, Lineman. 0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:37.920 One thing guy who would do to protect their skin 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:43.000 is you rub vasiline on your skin to protect the layers. 0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:46.440 It's funny. I just saw on Twitter, even here in Pennsylvania, Dan, 0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:50.080 they said, don't go outside for more than thirty minutes 0:21:50.160 --> 0:21:53.159 because your skin could get frostpin. Well, what are the 0:21:53.280 --> 0:21:54.960 NFL players are gonna do? What are the Bills and 0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:56.800 Patriots are gonna do it? They're gonna be out for 0:21:56.880 --> 0:21:58.760 more than thirty minutes. And I just think to remember 0:21:58.800 --> 0:22:03.400 after that game, it stung taking the shower. You had 0:22:03.440 --> 0:22:07.480 to start with like a cold shower and then slowly 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:11.680 move it up because your skin was like so raw 0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:14.000 that if you went to a hot shower, it like 0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:17.840 it felt like it burns. Well, that's frost bite. That's 0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:22.600
