It's the greatest thing since Bad Sisters 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: Season two. Bad Sisters is a black comedy on Apple 18 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: TV that recently started its second season. I don't want 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: to spoil anything in case you haven't watched it, so 20 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: I'll go light on the details. Season one features laugh 21 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: out loud moments in nearly every episode and perhaps the 22 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: greatest villain in the history of TV or film. We're 23 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 1: talking about a total a hole who is so despicable 24 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: that you'll want to reach into your TV screen and 25 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: strangle him. I've only watched a couple of episodes in 26 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 1: season two, but it's very different. It's not nearly as funny, 27 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: but it features a whopper of a plot twist and 28 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: another loathsome villain. If you're looking for something to watch 29 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: or binge, Bad Sisters on Apple TV gets my strongest recommendation. 30 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: Now time for the radio replays from Sunday's win in Tennessee. 31 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: This afternoon from Music City USA, Nashville, Tennessee. The Bengals 32 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: will look to keep their playoff hopes alive as they 33 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: take on old friend Brian Callahan and the Tennessee Titans. 34 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,839 Speaker 1: And it is time for the big skin to fly 35 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: here at Nissan Stadium. Second down and ten Bengals from 36 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: their own twenty burrow to throw against the four man 37 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: rush passes over the middle and it is picked off 38 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: by the Tennessee Titans. A pass intended for Jamar Chase 39 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: Luke Gifford, an interior linebacker, went to the ground and 40 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: intercepted it for Tennessee. One of the best defensive linemen 41 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: in the NFL checks in on offense, Jeffrey Simmons. He 42 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: will line up as a fullback in front of Pollard. 43 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: On second down in goal from the three. That is 44 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: a gigantic fullback. Levis gives it to Pollard running up 45 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: the middle, touchdown Tennessee Hurst and goal from the Tennessee six. 46 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: Burrow and the shotgun back at the eleven. Joe extends 47 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: the hands, catches the ball back to throw looking still 48 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: looking now backs up, gets away from a hit, still looking, 49 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: escapes another hit, throws into the end zone, touchdown to 50 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Chase Brown. The remarkable Joe Burrow buying time, escaping two 51 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: possible sacks, and delivering a strike to running back Chase 52 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: Brown for the Bengals touchdown. Will they give it to 53 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Simmons to try to score a touchdown? That would 54 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: be interesting. They do not. They give it to Tajy Spears. 55 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: He goes airborne and he sticks the ball forward for 56 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: the Tennessee touchdown. Burrow under center an I formation backfield 57 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: behind him, the tailback is Chase Brown. Burrow fakes a handoff, 58 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: throws a pass Sam Hubbard with the catching touchdown Bengals. 59 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: Sam Hubbard raising the football over his head and spiking 60 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: at Gronk style after the first catch of his NFL 61 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: career third down and seven. As the result of that 62 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: five yard penalty, Levis to throw his pass, picked off 63 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: Cam Taylor Britt at the fifty, running back down the 64 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: sideline of the thirty five thirty and shoved out of 65 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: bounds near the twenty. A late penalty flag thrown Will 66 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: after the play, but a great interception for Cam Taylor 67 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: Britt and the Bengals get their second takeaway. Burrow ready 68 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: for the shotgun snap Drew Sample in the backfield with him. 69 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: Burrow has the ball. It's a deep drop he throws 70 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: before Gunning hit got deep ball for Higgins. He catches 71 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: hip touchdown Bengals. Burrow flattened at the fifty and on 72 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: his back, he holds up the touchdown signal after connecting 73 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: with the Tennessee kid t Higgins. Taja spears in it 74 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: running back lines up to the right of Will Levis, 75 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: who taps both sides of his helmet as he waits 76 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: for the shotgun snap. The former UK Wildcat back to throw, 77 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: deflected and intercepted. Mike Hilton grabs the ricochet. I think 78 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: Cam Taylor Brett tipped it to him and the Bengals 79 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: have intercepted consecutive throws by Will Levis. This will be 80 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: a twenty one yard try from the left hash for 81 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: Cad York. Ryan Rico is the holder, the snap, the placement, 82 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: the kick is up and it is good. With two 83 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: seconds left. 84 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: In the half. 85 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: The Bengals have gone up by ten points and Levis 86 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: under center again, turns around, fakes a hand off to Pollard, 87 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: wants to throw, fires intercepted, Stone running it back. Gino's 88 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: at the twenty five twenty battle in front to block. 89 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: He's to the five to the goal line, touchdown Bengals. 90 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: Geno Stone with a pick six and the Bengals have 91 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: their fourth takeaway of the day. Rudolph catches the shotguns, 92 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: hands it off the balls on the ground, but Pollard 93 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: no I thought he recovered. 94 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 3: He did not. 95 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: It's being run back by Jorge down the sideline of 96 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: the thirty. The twenty gets away from Rudolph, who touchdown. Wow, Bengals. 97 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: Another defensive touchdown for Cincinnati. Has Pollard fumbled the ball, 98 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: failed to scoop it up, and Battle ran it back 99 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: for the score. 100 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 3: McKinley Jackson stripped it. McKinley Jackson got penetration and he 101 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 3: stripped the thing and man once that thing was on 102 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 3: the ground. Oh, he dropped, lost control of it before 103 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 3: he crossed the goal line. He started a celebration. Ooh, 104 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 3: he's at the half yard line. I'm not sure he 105 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: crossed the goal line before that ball came out of 106 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 3: his hands. 107 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 2: Ooh. 108 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,239 Speaker 1: Seven catches for Oconquo. Rudolph will throw high pass baked off. 109 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: The Bengals are running it back. This is Josh Newton 110 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: and he goes down at the twenty eight yard line. 111 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 4: Wow. 112 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: Four interceptions for the Bengals today. Ten takeaways for the 113 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: two defenses combined.

Chase Brown lowers the shoulder pads, 120 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: fighting for the goal lines. He's in touchdown Bengals with 121 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: one oh nine to go, the second touchdown of the 122 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: day for Chase Brown.

Despite playing on the sore left knee, 132 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow was terrific again, throwing three touchdown passes to 133 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: raise his league leading total to thirty six. That's a 134 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: new Bengals singles He's a record, topping Joe's previous high 135 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: of thirty five and twenty twenty two. He's also thrown 136 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: at least three touchdown passes in each of the last 137 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: six games, one of them on Sunday, went to his 138 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: old Ohio State college buddy Sam Hubbard. 139 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was big playing the game. You know, I 140 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 5: had faith and Sam to go make that play. He's 141 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 5: got good hands and it's a play we've talked about. 142 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 5: So I think that was a four down situation. That's 143 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 5: why we ended up going with that one, and it 144 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 5: felt good. Yeah. I mean I stayed in Sam's dorm 145 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 5: on one of my first visits to to Ohio State. 146 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 5: He's been part of part of my life for a 147 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 5: long time.

That's that's what we 322 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 8: love to see, Cities takeaways. You know, obviously you've been 323 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 8: selling you know, early season and mid season, but just 324 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 8: to see the last two games, how he progress. 325 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 2: Hopefully we keep doing that, you know, these next. 326 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 3: Next three or three or three games?

The 330 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: win keeps the Bengals playoff hopes alive, as they pulled 331 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: even with the Dolphins and Colts, who both lost on Sunday. 332 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: All three teams are six and eight. Denver one to 333 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: improve to nine to five, and the Chargers lost to 334 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: fall to eight and six. So here's what has to 335 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: happen for the Bengals to make it. They need to 336 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: win their last three games and hope that Denver loses 337 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: its last three or that the Chargers lose their last three. 338 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: Those two teams face each other next week. A Denver 339 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: loss would probably be more helpful. Additionally, the Dolphins and 340 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: Colts need to lose at least one of their final three. 341 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: Now let's hear what Zach Taylor had to say. Is 342 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: he spent a few minutes with Dave Lapham after the game. 343 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 3: On seven straight possessions after they scored their second touchdown, 344 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: they went fumble interception, interception, three and out, pick six, 345 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 3: fumble interception, seven straight possessions. 346 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 9: Are defense did a great job taking it off of them, 347 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 9: you know. So you got to catch the ones that 348 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 9: throw to you and find ways to create the fumbles 349 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 9: the loose balls, and our guys did that and for 350 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 9: the most part finished with them. You know, I know, 351 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 9: we had the one that's unacceptable. We can't have the touchback. 352 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 9: But my point is returned those for big gains, you know, 353 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 9: and put us in really good field possessional offense. 354 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 3: The penalty is uncharacteristic. I think it ended up fourteen 355 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: for one hundred and fourteen yards for the Bengals, in 356 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 3: twelve for at least one hundred might might have been 357 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty or one hundred and ten anyway 358 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 3: for a Tennessee. So, I mean it was a strange game. 359 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 3: Double digit turnovers and then both teams having double digit 360 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 3: penalties with over one hundred yards apiece. 361 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, a lot of those were embarrassing. You know, we 362 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 9: can't have the procedural self that we had happened today 363 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 9: that set us back and put you into second fifteen 364 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 9: and the next thing, you know, it's the possessions dead. 365 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 9: And so we got to be better. We pride ourselves 366 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 9: on being great in that area, being best in the league, 367 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 9: and today wasn't up to that. 368 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 3: Stow Devin cockran and I caught up with him as well. 369 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 3: I mean I took my cap to the kid. I know, 370 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: the first the first series maybe a little bit goosey, 371 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: but I mean he settled down and I thought I 372 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 3: thought he was very solid out there. 373 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 374 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,239 Speaker 9: I thought he really calmed down as the game went on, 375 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 9: and we tried to help him the best we could. 376 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 9: But he did a good job. He's earned that opportunity 377 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 9: and we had confidence in him. That's why we elevated 378 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 9: him and signed him into the fifty three and trusted 379 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 9: him to go out there, and he did a great 380 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:24,360 Speaker 9: job for us. 381 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 3: Chase Brown continues to impress. I mean, ninety seven yards 382 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 3: on twenty five carries and had it. You know, he's 383 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: a threat out of the backfield catching the football as well. 384 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 3: I mean, when you have the weapons you have in 385 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 3: the passing attack and he's part of it, and then 386 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 3: him complimenting in the running game, it's tough. 387 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 9: Yeah, just anyway you can get him the ball. You know, 388 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 9: he's another weapon we have that has an opportunity to 389 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 9: be explosive, and you know, we're happy to have him 390 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 9: and we try to find out as many ways as 391 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 9: we can to use him. 392 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 3: Okay, everybody, everybody wants to know what you and Kelly 393 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 3: talk about when you guys caught up pregame or post 394 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 3: game or was it just all football all the time? 395 00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 2: Today? 396 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 9: We talking now off to where there's no major conversations. 397 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 9: You know, I'm happy for the opportunity he has and 398 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 9: pulling form the rest of the way. 399 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 3: I know, you guys not just football friends, but you know, 400 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 3: are really close, really really good friends as well. And 401 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 3: I know you you mentioned it, you've you've played, had 402 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 3: to coach against friends in the past, and I mean 403 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 3: that it's interesting I'm having to come up with that 404 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 3: kind of focus. And is it tough to do or 405 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 3: the more you do it repetition breeds comfort level? 406 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: What's it like? 407 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, no, it's happened so many times for me that 408 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 9: it's just another game. You know, it's almost it'd be 409 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 9: awkward for a week to go by that I didn't 410 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 9: wasn't so close to someone on the other team. You know, 411 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 9: at this point the league is very small. Worked for 412 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 9: several different teams now and had a lot of people 413 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 9: I respect in the industry, and this staff was one 414 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 9: of those staffs. 415 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 3: So early in the football game, you you fall behind, 416 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 3: but you know you come come roaring back and and 417 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 3: and you know when the football game handily, the last 418 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 3: possession was kind of crazy how they how they score 419 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 3: on that one. But overall, give me your assessment. I mean, 420 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 3: Obviously we talked about some things. I know you want 421 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,959 Speaker 3: to get clean dump to turnovers, the penalties, but how 422 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 3: about from an execution standpoint, anything to stand out to 423 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: you very positively. 424 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 9: I think, aside from the pildies, we executed really well 425 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 9: on offense and to create turnovers. I mean, that's the 426 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 9: name of the game on defense, and so those guys 427 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 9: did that and we're able to give us five extra 428 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 9: possessions and that's you can't ask for much more from 429 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 9: the defense that way. So there's a lot of positives 430 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 9: there to build from, and then there's some things that 431 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 9: will clean up as well. 432 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 3: So you won two straight road games. I don't care 433 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 3: where you're playing the National Football League. 434 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 4: You went on the road. 435 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 3: That's an accomplishment done two weeks in a row. Now 436 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 3: you go back to pay Corps the two straight home games. 437 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 3: Crowd better be in full throat because here come to Bengals. 438 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: It's good. 439 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 9: You know, it's a divisional game, big one for us, 440 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 9: chance to go to and over, it's the divisional rival, 441 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 9: chance to win three games in a row, chance to 442 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 9: get back on track at home. There's a lot of 443 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 9: reasons why this needs to be our best week. 444 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: Can appreciate you, coach, all right, thanks sav Up. 445 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: Next the one o'clock home game next Sunday against the 446 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: three and eleven Cleveland Browns.

Kettering Health is the official healthcare 454 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: provider of the Bengals. Now time for the radio guys 455 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: recap Dave Lapham. That game was insane. Ten turnovers, more 456 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: than twenty penalties, a touchdown that didn't count because the 457 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: guy running into the end zone lost control of the 458 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: ball inside the one. This thing had just about everything, 459 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: but most importantly from the Bengals perspective, they came out 460 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: on top by ten. 461 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: No question. 462 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 3: I think it came down to a seven possession sequence. 463 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 3: After the Titans scored their second touchdown, they went fumble interception, interception, 464 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 3: three and out. Punt the football away, pick six, bumble interception. 465 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 3: I don't care if you're playing a pee wee football team, 466 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 3: You're not gonna win in the NFL doing that. 467 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 2: But the Bengals had their share of blunders as well. 468 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 3: And you know, we mentioned during the broadcast, you have 469 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 3: four turnovers in a game as a player and your 470 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 3: plus two. It's like, what I mean, that's that's the 471 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 3: sign of a crazy day, and it certainly was. 472 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: That Tennessee had one sack and six quarterback hits and 473 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: the Bengals had their third team left tackle out there, 474 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: Devin Cochrane. He had played one offensive snap in his 475 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: NFL career prior to today. How much credit does he 476 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: deserve for this win? 477 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 2: I think a ton and Frank Pollock two. 478 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 3: I tried to get Frank to the three of Us talk, 479 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 3: and Frank's like, I appreciate that, he said, but the 480 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 3: kid deserves to to. 481 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 2: Get the love. 482 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 3: Go talk to to Cochran and and I totally agree 483 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 3: respect Coach Pollock's sentiments there. You know, I think he 484 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 3: was a little bit jumpy, you know, at first, but 485 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 3: gonna into a groove and settled down a little bit, 486 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 3: and he was very effusive in his praise of how 487 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 3: Frank has developed him, and you know, he feels like 488 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 3: he knows the offense, and that part of wasn't going 489 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 3: to be a problem. He didn't find out until in 490 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 3: the locker room before the game, like three hours before 491 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 3: the game, that he was actually going to start the 492 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 3: football game. Everybody was crossing their things that Cody Ford 493 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 3: would be able to make the dance, because sometimes those 494 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 3: mixers can be miraculous. But it wasn't to be, and man, 495 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 3: he got an opportunity. He stepped up and took full advantage. 496 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: We got off the bus about the same time and 497 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: walked out out of the field before the game, and 498 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: it just so happened. We were walking out behind Joe 499 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: Burrow as he went out to warm up, and he 500 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: looked like a basketball guard who was doing kind of 501 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 1: like a crossover dribble where he would shift his late 502 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: weight to one side then go back to the other side, 503 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: and he was clearly testing how his left knee was 504 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: going to feel. Had a brace on that knee. But man, 505 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: watching him play, you really wouldn't know it much. 506 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 3: He played great, he really did. I mean he uh, 507 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 3: you know, he got out of pocket when he had to. 508 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 3: He didn't do it as much as he normally does, 509 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 3: but when he did, you know, he's putting in a 510 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 3: pretty good gear and he's still he has that you know, 511 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 3: elusiveness to climb the pocket and just the uh he 512 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 3: has the eyes and the sides in the back of 513 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 3: his helmet and when to step up and slidestepping those 514 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 3: kinds of things. 515 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 2: But uh, yeah, a guy. 516 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 3: Like him, I can't tell you the inspiration that gives 517 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 3: you in a huddle. You know, it's everybody this time 518 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 3: of year. We've talked about it before them. Everybody's kind 519 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 3: of beating up. Everybody's kind of you know, man, these 520 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 3: are the dog days. Man, you gotta get through it. 521 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 3: It's like, suck it up, get get loose, get going, 522 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 3: and you get your quarterback who's hurt, I mean legitimately 523 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 3: hurt and just doing everything he can to get out 524 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 3: there and play football. And I think part of it, 525 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 3: all that movie he is doing, is just getting ready, 526 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 3: getting used to the apparatus that was on his knee 527 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 3: and seeing the differences in the field of it and 528 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: all that all that kind of thing. But players respond 529 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 3: to that. I mean, that's leadership to you. Just it's priceless. 530 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 3: You can't put a tag on it. 531 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: And with his sore knee, the Bengals have to feel 532 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: great that they're not playing on Thursday night this week 533 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: is originally scheduled against Cleveland. The game got moved to Sunday, 534 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: and Joe gets a few extra days for that need 535 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: to feel better. 536 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 2: Great point. 537 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 3: Great point, you know, because he's at a stage now where, 538 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 3: all right, he injured, it, went through some rehab, now 539 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: went out and tested it again, and it doesn't sound 540 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 3: like or seem like, you know, it got worse. So 541 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 3: now he'll be able to rehab from a higher recovery 542 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 3: point and even be better for Sunday. Thursday might have 543 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 3: been a little doubtful in terms of how much better 544 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: it was going to be with those extra days. 545 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 2: Every day in an injury like this, every day is significant. 546 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: I spoke to Mike Hilton after the game. He said 547 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: he thought this is one of his best games and 548 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 1: a Bengals unicorn. 549 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:57,239 Speaker 2: I can't dispute that. 550 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,479 Speaker 3: I mean, Louis an Roumo to him remarkably well, like 551 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 3: he always does. I mean, once once he starts getting 552 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 3: on a roll with Mike Kilton, Mike Hilton responds Blue 553 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 3: response to Mike. Mike responds to Lou And it's like synergistic, 554 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 3: you know, one plus one equals three. They're going to 555 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 3: be making a lot of plays together, beautiful music together. 556 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 3: And I think, you know, he gets to a point 557 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 3: where in the huddle just call him a number again. 558 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: Hey man, this is great. You just go out there 559 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 3: and make him look good and respond and make a play. 560 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: Tennessee's a bad team. That's eleven losses, but it's the NFL. 561 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: They went on the road and beat Houston a few 562 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: weeks ago, a very good team. So you'll happily take 563 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: a road win anytime you can get one. With back 564 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: to back road wins, now at Dallas and at Tennessee, 565 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: the Bengals have put themselves in a position to go 566 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: home win a couple of games if they can, and 567 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: be five hundred to the one game to go. 568 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know that's they dug a hole, there's 569 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 3: no question. But now you can at least see light, 570 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: you know, you know, it's so deep in the whole 571 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 3: that the light's hard to find. And keep prowling, keep 572 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 3: working your way up the sides of that hole, and 573 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 3: pretty soon you know, you stick your head out over 574 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 3: the top. I mean, if they could run the table 575 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 3: and finish with a winning record, who would have thunked 576 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 3: at better? 577 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: Try to cut down on those penalties next week though, 578 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: at home against the Browns. 579 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: No doubt. 580 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 3: I mean you're to have four turnovers and I think 581 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 3: it's I think they ended up with twelve penalties. Yeah, 582 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 3: twelve penalties for one hundred and ten yards. That doesn't 583 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 3: computer victory very often. Not only did a computer victory 584 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 3: a computer to two score victory a ten point win 585 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 3: because the opponent was worse. I mean they had six turnovers, 586 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 3: they had fourteen penalties. 587 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 2: For more yards. I mean that was crazy with the 588 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 2: capital C. 589 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: That puts a rap on the Tennessee game. Now it's 590 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: time for this week's fun facts segment, where you get 591 00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: to know the person under the pads.

I think that's a 687 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 10: big plus side to my career. 688 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: Before the draft, he trained with former Bengals wide receiver TJ. 689 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: Hushman Zada, and the three of us did a podcast 690 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: together earlier this year. TJ was a seventh round pick 691 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: by the Bengals. He could name every wide receiver taken 692 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: before him in the draft that year. I'm guessing he 693 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: probably still can do that. You were a third round pick. 694 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: There were twelve Rode receivers taken before you. As those 695 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: names were going off the board, were you getting ticked 696 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: off by seeing some guys that you thought, you know what, 697 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: I'm better than that guy? 698 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: Oh? 699 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, And you know, everybody's story is different. Everybody, everybody's 700 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,239 Speaker 10: legacy is different, and it's so special to them and 701 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 10: unique to the to them and each and everybody individually. 702 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 10: But yeah, one I felt that there was definitely a 703 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 10: fire in my heart. And you know, regardless of what 704 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 10: anything happens, you know, I'm still working and working and 705 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 10: working and working and working. 706 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 4: And that's one thing that's not going to change. 707 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 10: And one thing I learned about that when I was younger, 708 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 10: the more I kept working and working and working, I 709 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 10: might not have seen the results as quickly as I 710 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 10: wanted to, but they eventually came. And that's one thing 711 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 10: I truly believe in because there's nothing else you can do. 712 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 10: It's one thing that you can control of. You know 713 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 10: how much better you are getting. So yeah, I feel 714 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 10: like I felt like my story is going to be amazing. 715 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: Some wild card topics now for Jermaine Burton. Your Twitter 716 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: handle is NASA main three, a reference to your interest 717 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: in space. When did that start? 718 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 4: When I was a kid? I don't know what. 719 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 10: It was, probably right before I kind of hit my 720 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 10: teenage years, probably, I don't know, Probably when I was 721 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,479 Speaker 10: like nine, ten eleven. I just used to be on 722 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 10: YouTube watching a bunch of random stuff and looking up 723 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 10: a bunch of different random stuff. So I got into 724 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 10: like a bunch of space like videos and it turned 725 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 10: into that, and something was about it just had a 726 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 10: certain kind of interest to me, like I wanted to 727 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 10: know more about like space and all kinds of stuff 728 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 10: and what's going on out there. 729 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 4: And it was just. 730 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 10: Something that was kind of like became a hobby to 731 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 10: me of like, uh, looking up all that kind of stuff. 732 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 10: Like like that's why when like space ex became a 733 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 10: thing with Elon Musk and stuff like that, I was 734 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 10: so I was so heavily invested into that because I thought, 735 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 10: I truly believe that Elon Musk is like gonna take 736 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 10: our technology and our and what we can do until further, 737 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 10: like further.
