18
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 5: You know.

19
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 4: Here's the thing. Here's the thing, just really quick. I've

20
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: seen that movie so many times in my life. Midway

21
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 4: through the fourth quarter, I knew how it was gonna end.

22
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 4: I knew when the Jets went for two in the

23
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 4: first half and didn't get it. I said, they're gonna

24
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 4: lose because of that, because again, I've seen that Jets

25
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 4: movie my entire life. The ending doesn't change, doesn't change.

26
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: You know what, Though the first two acts were much

27
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: better than what you've seen, yes most years, at least

28
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: the first time, just like Hollywood movies, though they couldn't

29
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: finish the third act and give you the big payoffs.

30
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 4: No I am, I am, I look, I am just

31
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 4: I am embarrassed that they lost like that to Rogers

32
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 4: to make him because Rogers wasn't great. He looked a

33
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 4: little bit better than he was, but it was still

34
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 4: the best game he's played in two years. And Rogers

35
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 4: gets to come back in and win a game, and

36
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 4: I'm just embarrassed that that's how it turned out. Like

37
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 4: I'm like Aaron gled I have no time for moral victories,

38
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 4: which is what's why I love Aaron Glen. I got

39
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: no time for this. I got time for the mistakes

40
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 4: and all of this and fumbles and all kinds of

41
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 4: crazy ass stuff. No, I don't don't have time for that.

42
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 4: I'm just I'm embarrassed that they lost. And as soon

43
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 4: as as soon as we got to the fourth court,

44
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 4: I said, this is how this game is gonna end.

45
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 4: This is exactly his game, and I knew Buzzle is

46
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 4: gonna make that sixty yard field for sure. They needed

47
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 4: to rush it more. I get that they kind of

48
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 4: hung back a bit like, no, you can't let guys

49
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 4: kick it from sixty.

50
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: Anymore's gonna make him. You don't want to have a

51
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: penalty and move it closer. No, you gotta get after that,

52
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: because this is how kickers are, right, And it was

53
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: still the Jets kind of.

54
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna go halfway after it.

55
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: Everybody's playing super tow on an NFL. It all started

56
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: with Janakowski and it continues today, literally today.

57
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 4: So we'll have more on the Jets. Good Rogers, Rogers, Rogers.

58
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: But obviously we jump right intonight as we do every

59
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: Monday Monday Night football. Eleven and a half to go

60
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: on the third quarter. It is a seventeen to six

61
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: lead for the Chicago Bears over the Minnesota Vikings. This

62
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: is a tale of two quarterbacks. Let's deal with your

63
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: guy first. Sure, Caleb Williams, who wait a minute, but

64
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: wait a minute, I thought he was so bad and

65
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: he couldn't he couldn't hit the net with the ball

66
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: in training camp, that day.

67
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 3: I thought he was terrible. I thought he was awful.

68
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 4: I told you everything is gonna be fine. I told

69
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 4: you he was gonna have a big year. Everything is fine.

70
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 4: He's thirteen out of nineteen so far. Tonight he's run

71
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 4: for thirty yards in a touchdown. I told you, I

72
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 4: told everything. Caleb Williams is gonna be fine.

73
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: No, no, he's dead. But look at that thing with

74
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 3: the net. It looks awful.

75
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 4: He's gonna be fine. Here he is. He's got a quarterback,

76
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 4: friendly head coach, and this is a pretty good Vikings

77
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 4: team and a pretty good Vikings defense. But Caleb Williams

78
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 4: looks okay. He's making the right decisions. Everything is going

79
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 4: Fine's not turn the ball over. It's been enough offense.

80
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 4: It's the first game.

81
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 5: I get it.

82
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 4: It's rusty. You don't have a lot going on in

83
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 4: the preseason. But Caleb Williams looks fine. Apparently after maybe

84
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 4: what's gotta do is miss nets in practice all the

85
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 4: time in the preseason. He was gonna be fine.

86
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 3: Here he is all right.

87
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 4: I know everybody was so nervous, But now, don't you

88
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 4: feel good? I told you he was gonna be I

89
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 4: just chuckle right.

90
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: And then right ahead of the season beginning, we get

91
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: the big story that dropped and a guy getting a

92
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: lot of run because he talked to some fired ex

93
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: coach that are salty and want to put all.

94
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 3: Blame on Caleb Williams.

95
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: He was aloof he didn't want to do in meetings,

96
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: they asked him questions and he just stared him down

97
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: and all of that fun stuff. Ben Johnson's like, I

98
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: don't know what happened last year, and every chance he

99
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: gets an opportunity, he's like, I've been here. I only

100
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: know what's going on now and how hard he's working.

101
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: So somewhere in there the truth lies. And today there's

102
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: been a couple of opportunities where it looked like Williams

103
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: may have had shots downfield but checked down, but got

104
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: the ball out, made the completion, not taking the sacks

105
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: as opposed to a year ago where it was hey,

106
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm still the fastest guy out here. I can outrun

107
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: and evade would be tacklers. No, that didn't happen, and

108
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: he took a lot of sacks. Yeah, I gave him

109
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: an interceptionless streak, but holding the ball doesn't do you

110
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 1: much good. You know, playing behind the sticks today, getting

111
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: the ball out. You see the completions early and often,

112
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: and for Ben Johnson, it's exactly what he wants. Don't

113
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: take the negative plays, keep things pushing and keep that

114
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: Flores defense at bay.

115
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 3: And that's what they've been able to do.

116
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: Not running the ball effectively with Swift, but he's been

117
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: good as a receiver out of the backfield, and Caleb

118
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: making plays with his legs himself, including that touchdown scamper,

119
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: so all good things. The aggressiveness on fourth down to

120
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: a shoe taking points in the first half is one

121
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: of those that you raise the eyebrow. But evidently that's

122
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: the identity that's going to carry over from their time

123
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: in Detroit. So you move forward, you get the pick six,

124
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: and here we are.

125
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 4: Everything is fine.

126
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 6: Listen, listen, listen to the beginning of a new year

127
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 6: for Caleb Williams and the touchdown that really sparked all

128
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 6: a change in the conversation about the Bears quarterback half

129
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 6: back pressure.

130
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 7: Pick it up by Tony rolling left. William's got green

131
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 7: Russ turn bite tack for the Endzie, throw them up,

132
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 7: will you Babby? Touchdown touchdown Bears hey yard touchdown Scrabble.

133
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 4: Bears Radio Network on the call. See, you were nervous,

134
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 4: you were nervous about me say all these good things.

135
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 4: And you said, oh, you're telling me you are a

136
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 4: good feeling everything. I told you everything was gonna be fun.

137
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: Well, I did it in a mocking tone for the

138
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: way it got covered nationally.

139
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 4: Checking if the NFL was about throwing the ball into

140
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 4: a small basket in preseason, Caleb Williams would not be

141
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 4: a quarterback. I would recommend.

142
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 3: Well, I tell you know, not for today.

143
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean there were a couple of the throws as

144
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: I mentioned that, he would have had to put it

145
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: in those little windows, and he chose the check down.

146
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not been grant. I'd say he's not been great,

147
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 4: but he's been fine. He has moved the team, he's

148
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 4: not made mistakes. He looks, he looks confident back there

149
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 4: in the pocket. It's not like the last six games

150
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 4: last year it was three steps back going oh my god,

151
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 4: here comes a rush.

152
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 5: Uh.

153
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 4: He his his body language is a lot better during

154
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 4: the plays. In between plays of that.

155
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams is fine. Yeah, I'm not I'm not worried

156
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 3: about it. It's a long, long process.

157
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: As we've talked about, it's ay, but I'm I'm the

158
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: pragmatist in a world of hot take nonsense, right because

159
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: right now in Minnesota, I'm sure people are burning up

160
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: their keyboards with what they've seen from JJ McCarthy. We'll

161
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: get to him in a second. But for Caleb Williams,

162
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: right the referendum, especially with that story dropping this weekend

163
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: and all of the you know, different iterations and back

164
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: trying to back up as to what a train wreck

165
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: he was a year ago and taking no responsibility as

166
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: a coaching staff that if he didn't play well today,

167
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: you add fuel to the fire, because both locally and nationally,

168
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: the wolves are at the door. For Caleb Williams, I

169
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: don't know what it translates to a win loss record,

170
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: but we know it's a process.

171
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 3: Right.

172
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: He's back under center, trying to do play action passes.

173
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: He's never done that before. So to think that you're

174
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: gonna go week one against Brian Flores in this Minnesota defense, no,

175
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: Harrison Smith, fine, but that you're gonna go and you're

176
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: gonna play perfect football.

177
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 3: No, You're you're not going to.

178
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: It's gonna be choppy at times and over the next

179
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I would expect that as well. But

180
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: if he and Ben Johnson had the relationship that they

181
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: both seem to be selling us, then over time, by

182
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: mid season, you'll see a much different Chicago offense that

183
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: will operate at a different level of efficiency. So that's

184
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. Everything is fine. Now how about the other guy?

185
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 7: Watch the snap, gets it fullhouse, plets throwing out to

186
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 7: the left, It picked up down the sideline, right to.

187
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: The forty yard line.

188
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 7: He is history Berry, leave me the Vikings that tail

189
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 7: lights into the end zone for the touchdown. Touchdown, Bears

190
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 7: had a pick six per.

191
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 4: Nation right, there was Bears Radio Network again JJ McCarthy tonight.

192
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 4: Five out of nine for forty eight yards and a pick.

193
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 4: These are up to date stats. This is not half hit.

194
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 4: Refresh on my computer, no, no, no, long done of

195
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 4: those five out of nine for forty eight yards and

196
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 4: a pick. Now, you pick the school of thought that

197
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 4: you want to go through, because no matter how you

198
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 4: cut this up right, I'll give you the sunny side

199
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 4: up part of it, right, which is not the part

200
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 4: I believe the sunny side part is. And he does

201
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 4: he looks like a guy that hasn't played football in

202
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 4: a while, right, I mean, because remember, this is not

203
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 4: a guy coming out of college that hey give him

204
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 4: the keys to the offense. He has not played a

205
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 4: game in well over a year, right, You're you're talking

206
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 4: about a long time, nearly almost two years. You're talking

207
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: about a game from so it's been a long time

208
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 4: since he's been under centered. Yes, he's had time preseason

209
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 4: joint practices, but it's different when the lights go on

210
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 4: on Monday night and it's your first time throwing the

211
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 4: football and you're doing it when everything is real. So

212
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 4: there is that because there is some of that for

213
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 4: JJ McCarthy, and I see that sometimes in a little

214
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 4: bit of his his you know, the way his eyes

215
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 4: are moving and looking across the field. But the more

216
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 4: apt thing to say is you sure you got the

217
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 4: right guy? You sure you got the right guy? Because

218
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 4: it's not like JJ McCarthy came into the NFL as

219
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: a can't miss guy. And this is where we talked

220
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: about how the decision making process of the Vikings can

221
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 4: go doubly bad if McCarthy's not good. Because mccarth, look,

222
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 4: I told you from the beginning McCarthy is someone who

223
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 4: is overdrafted. He was never asked to win games at Michigan.

224
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 5: Right.

225
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: I told you nobody's watched more Michigan games less thirty years.

226
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: And I'm unless you coach the team, and even then

227
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: you're out because you're not coaching for thirty years.

228
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 5: Right.

229
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 4: McCarthy was never asked to be the guy. He was

230
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 4: asked to be the head of the Snake and Michigan

231
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,719
Speaker 4: with a loaded team to win the National Championship. You

232
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 4: see all the guys that went to the NFL the

233
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 4: last couple of years. McCarthy was a good college quarterback.

234
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 4: But I can't tell you one game where I say

235
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 4: Michigan won because of him.

236
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 3: And you can.

237
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 4: Only try to try to make it happen for a

238
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: guy and say, oh, his skills will transfer to the

239
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 4: next level so much and so far tonight, I've not

240
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 4: seen it. Now again, it's two and a half quarters

241
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 4: of his first game. And there's that's why, my mom,

242
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, all the guy's terrible after this. But

243
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 4: understand that if this goes bad for the Vikings, it's

244
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 4: not just we got it wrong with a quarterback, it's

245
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 4: we had a guy and we said, no, we had

246
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: a guy who we were hoping JJ McCarthy would turn into.

247
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 4: We had a guy with thirty five touchdowns and four

248
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 4: thousand yards, and we went thirteen and four last year

249
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 4: and we said.

250
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we have this other guy though that

251
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: hasn't thrown a pass for us that we really like. Yeah,

252
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: but I just with thirty five touchdowns, four thousand yards. Yeah,

253
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: but the last two games kind of were in his God. Yeah,

254
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: but you saw the whole season was I'm a Pro

255
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: Bowl quarterback. Like three guys go from the conference, and

256
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: I was like a legit selection, like not one of those. Hey,

257
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: seven guys said they don't want to play. And I'm

258
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: the guy that I'm not Snoop Huntley pro bowling it here,

259
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: I am legitimately pro bowling it.

260
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 4: This is how it gets so much worse. And you know,

261
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 4: all Vikings fans right now, that's all their thinking, right

262
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 4: because it's a Monday night. It's different when you suck

263
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 4: Sunday afternoon at one o'clock than we suck Monday night

264
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 4: at eight thirty. And suddenly it's all these guys, all

265
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 4: these we could have had, We could have had Sam Darnold. Again,

266
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 4: we could have gone back in with this and look

267
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 4: at where you're at right now. Okay, your leading receiver

268
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: is Jalen Naylor, who caught one pass at the end

269
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 4: of the first half. That's it, justin Jefferson. One pass

270
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 4: on three targets. This has been an abysmal start for

271
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 4: the Vikings, and again it's doubly worse because of the

272
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 4: fact you kick Sam Donald to the curb, which accelerates

273
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 4: all the negativity and all the bad things going around

274
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 4: Minnesota with this quarterback. So remember when he and the

275
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 4: Vikings went down in the playoffs. I raised my hand

276
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 4: here you were with me. To a degree of everybody

277
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 4: wanted to just put it on Sam Donald. Well that's

278
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: the guy that couldn't do this that the other and

279
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 4: nobody wanted to point a finger at Kevin O'Connell except

280
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 4: for this guy. In terms of game plan, down distance

281
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 4: and how they came into that game. How did you

282
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 4: not figure out what Ben Johnson has done? And I

283
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 4: know Darisaw is not there, he wasn't there last year?

284
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 3: Is that?

285
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: How did you not figure out a system whereby you

286
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: found some easy throws from early right? Dennis Allen is

287
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: no slouch, right, as much a we talk about Brian

288
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: Flora is from the defensive coordinator angle. Bears have done

289
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 1: a good job of getting pressure it and getting him

290
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: off his spot and making him work a little bit.

291
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: But you didn't up any easy throws getting Jefferson involved early, right,

292
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,479
Speaker 1: you had? The pick six was a pass intended for Jefferson,

293
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: clearly miscommunication, right, he's expecting him to stop instead, he's

294
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: five yards up the field and it's an easy run

295
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: back for the touchdown, but putting it on his shoulders.

296
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: You don't have enough of a run game just yet.

297
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: And Jordan Mason's had a couple of nice runs. Aaron

298
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: Jones is a decent receiver out of the backfield still,

299
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: but you haven't done anything to make it easy for him.

300
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: And with Sam Donald and those numbers from a year ago, Yeah,

301
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's a much less vocal crowd than

302
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: what would happen in Chicago if the Bears came out

303
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: in Stone. But it still needs to be asked, right,

304
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: right guy, how quickly things get get torn asunder and

305
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: whether the genius tag starts to come off O'Connell a

306
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: little bit.

307
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, Remember it's it's always worse we do.

308
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: We had a most support position, and we had him,

309
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: and we found a way to convince ourselves let's not

310
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: keep him. Let's go with the guy that hasn't really

311
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: thrown a pass for us. No, no, he's our guy.

312
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 4: Like you think. Sometimes we just really outthink ourselves. And

313
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 4: again it's a but JJ McCarthy, they have seventy seven

314
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 4: yards of offense. Man, this is midway through the third quarter.

315
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 4: All right, this is midway through the third quarter. Seventy

316
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 4: seven yards of us. I mean maybe the whole thing

317
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: is they'll get arch Manning. Can you imach up the

318
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 4: number one pick next year and saying no, no, no, we

319
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 4: have JJ McCarthy. Will let somebody else take arch Manning.

320
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 4: Now that would be interesting.

321
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: Now you're really creating chaos theory here after two and

322
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: a half quarters.

323
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: I love that we're.

324
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 4: Gonna draft Caleb Downs instead and let the number two

325
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 4: team go get arch Manning.

326
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: Right now, we're talking absolutely chaos theory here.

327
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 3: We're not even through the third quarter here.

328
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: But but it does raise the interesting point of you know, look,

329
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: I always talking about the dollar cost average and give

330
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: your quarterback position McCarthy's a cheap option year two of

331
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: his rookie deals, still coming off a big injury and

332
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: trying to work his way back, all reports positive, whatever,

333
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: and you would have had to pay Sam Darnold quite

334
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: a bit of money, right You saw what he was

335
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: able to sign for in Seattle.

336
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 3: You didn't see much of that on the field in

337
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: week Awe. See what I did there?

338
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 5: Wow?

339
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: I tried to prop him up, and at the same

340
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: point I had to take a shot at him because

341
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: outside of JSN, I don't think we saw another receiver.

342
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 3: They were all, you know, invisible.

343
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were like the void running around in Uh

344
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: you know that that movie with Uh.

345
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 3: He's like this marble thing.

346
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 4: He's like the lonely end from like you know, Army

347
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 4: in like nineteen forty six. He's the one guy we

348
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 4: have out there at receiver.

349
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: He's just running, he's running wind sprints, so all of that.

350
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: But when you do the dollar cost averaging could have

351
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: kept them around. Not that you love the situation if

352
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: you're Kirk Cousins in Atlanta, but you're still getting paid

353
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: and eventually someone's gonna call come calling. The Vikings had

354
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: the opportunity to try to keep Sam around, would have

355
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: had to.

356
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 3: Pay a little bit more. I get it.

357
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: But you have a guy where you have proof of

358
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: concept of what he can do in your offense and

359
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: he can help McCarthy alot.

360
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 4: Or could have franchised him.

361
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 3: That's the point, right, We could keep could cut both

362
00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 3: of you.

363
00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 4: Could it, could have done it again.

364
00:15:59,480 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 3: That's the thing.

365
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: He could have done it for a year and again

366
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: he becomes a valuable trade show if mccar if and

367
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: when McCarthy guests year. Now, obviously we are really going

368
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: hot take theory here towards the end of the third quarter, but.

369
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 3: Hey, that's what we do. Man.

400
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, Bears on the move. Caleb Williams

401
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: just scrambles for a first down. Bears lead at seventeen

402
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: to six again, two thirty two left to go. Here

403
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, Bears on the move first and

404
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 1: ten at the Vikings thirty four yard line. This comes

405
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: after a drive where they finally look like they converted

406
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: a third down. Did the Vikings third and two. They'd

407
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: been averaging in nine point nine yards on average. They

408
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 1: were zero for seven past the Adam Thielen, welcome back

409
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: to Minnesota.

410
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 3: He drops it.

411
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, So another punt and now you have the scramble

412
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: followed by a big run by DeAndre Swift and here

413
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: we are.

414
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 4: You finally get one of three good passes on the

415
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 4: nights from McCarthy and he drops us.

416
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, puts it out his head and Ali and then

417
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 1: he did the head tilt and everything. It's like, no, no, no, no, no,

418
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: you don't get to do that.

419
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 4: Joining us now on the hot line. We'll get to

420
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 4: this game coming up in a couple of minutes. Because

421
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 4: I really he joins us every Monday. He's a longtime

422
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 4: friend of the show. He's on Twitter at Jason lockinfora Odyssey,

423
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 4: Washington Post one oh five seven, the fan in Baltimore

424
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 4: again in Baltimore. I mainly just want to make sure

425
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 4: you're okay after last night. Jay, I assume you didn't

426
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 4: get any sleep and you've been rocking Red Bulls for

427
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 4: the last twenty four hours, all through your radio show

428
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 4: and everything today. Make sure you're okay right now.

429
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 5: I'm good. I'm going burden John Harball. Okay, No, my

430
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 5: pockets are straight off of that game. So all right,

431
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 5: but I saw don't know Lamar and Derrick Henry and

432
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 5: the over. It's a very very good care of me.

433
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what you know, following your Twitter last night,

434
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: I say, okay, so a little bit. Yes, it took

435
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: care of you pocket pocketbook wise, but you've been on

436
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: a big it's super Bowl or bust. Like Horrorball's out

437
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: if they don't get Harbor should be out after last night,

438
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: if they don't.

439
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 5: Get to the super Bowl. I do at this point,

440
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 5: you can't have this stuff drag. You know, we're now

441
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 5: in the parts of Sins twenty twenty one. They've been

442
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 5: blowing these games and doing historically significant I get accomplishments

443
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 5: on the failure side of things, and you know, the

444
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 5: quarterback is generational, and the front office thinks they've got

445
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 5: the best roster in football. Again. I would say they're

446
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 5: they're way full of themselves too, and they're not as

447
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 5: good as they think. And there's nobody on that team

448
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 5: who anybody's going to look at and say, oh, that

449
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 5: guy scares me as a pass rusher. There just isn't.

450
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 5: I mean, Mike Green will will get there at some

451
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 5: point in time. I don't think it's going to be

452
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 5: particularly soon. So I think they've got more wards and

453
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 5: blemishes than they're willing to admit. And they don't want

454
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 5: to pay for certain position groups, which I think is

455
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 5: a problem. But this coach has overseen epic collapse after

456
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 5: epic collapse after epic collapse. He's gone through different coordinators,

457
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 5: he's gone through different players, but it's systemic. You look

458
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 5: back at these games now and again, it spans year

459
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 5: a year, for a year, double digit fourth quarter leads,

460
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 5: you know, double and triple score leads with with you know,

461
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 5: five minutes or less left. It's it's ridiculous. And there's

462
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 5: special team's mistakes, and there's offensive mistakes, and there's defensive mistakes,

463
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 5: and they just collectively come out small. They bring out

464
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 5: low i Q football in each other, and at some

465
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 5: point you got to change what's going on with the messaging.

466
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 5: You got to change what's going on with the preparation.

467
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 5: You got to change what's going on with the macro

468
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 5: level decisions like that cowardly pathetic part last night, or

469
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 5: whatever the hell was going on on special teams with

470
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 5: twelve guys on the field, or whatever the hell was

471
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 5: going on rushing the rookie kicker and not managing clock

472
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 5: at the end of the half, or whatever the hell

473
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 5: was going on where you know that at the end

474
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 5: of the first half, Allen is throwing to a boundary,

475
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 5: yet somehow, you know, you don't keep that ball that

476
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,719
Speaker 5: are in, you know, at whatever tight end it was

477
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 5: in the field to play you cannot get out of

478
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 5: bounds there to their inability to make plays as a

479
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 5: defense in the fourth Quarner. So yeah, I think and

480
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 5: I didn't like his rhetoric, and you know, his messaging

481
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 5: coming into the season where he's saying, you clowns who

482
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 5: never played the game, don't understand super Bowl or Boston,

483
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 5: there's no such thing as Super Bowler bust and sort

484
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 5: of saying, you know, sort of alluding to the football

485
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 5: gods and things out of their control. And I just

486
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 5: thought it was kind of pathetic excuse making before the

487
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 5: season has even started. At the same time, players are

488
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 5: admitting that, yeah, we're not getting where we should go

489
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 5: because we keep undermining ourselves like we're our own worst enemy.

490
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 5: And then the coach is coming out saying, I think,

491
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 5: you know, it's ridiculous to say super bowler buss Like,

492
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 5: I don't know, man, I think a lot of people

493
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 5: who are too comfortable around here, and it manifests itself

494
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 5: at the worst possible times in the most critical times.

495
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: Well, that's you know, kind of sentiment about you know, players,

496
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: non players will get your desk somewhere.

497
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 3: But we'll talk about that another time. Yeah, let's stay

498
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 3: in division.

499
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: Earlier in the day, Can Aaron Rodgers do a seventeen

500
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: game revenge store?

501
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 5: No, he cannot. There were some impressive things obviously in

502
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 5: that game, but that's not a replicable game script for Pittsburgh. No,

503
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 5: it's kind of cool to know that's there. But you're

504
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 5: not going to get a sixty yard field goal every week.

505
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 5: You're not going to get that many points every week.

506
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 5: You're not going to get that many short intermediate passers

507
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 5: that turn into big, big things, and you're sure as

508
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 5: hell better not be letting teams like the Jets. I

509
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 5: thirty two in you every week, so you know, I

510
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 5: feel like the Bengals and the Steelers both like survive, advance, escape,

511
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 5: but also you know, maybe not a red flag, but

512
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 5: but a blinking amber light. You know about some things

513
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 5: better change there pretty quickly, because I think you know,

514
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 5: both kind of got away with one there against the

515
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 5: kind of teams they're going to want to beat weekend

516
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 5: week out.

517
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 4: Jason locking Forward with us A, Jason Smiths with Mike

518
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 4: Carmon Love from the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right,

519
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 4: so tell me, tell me your pockets for full because

520
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 4: you bet Daniel Jones to have the game of his

521
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 4: life yesterday.

522
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 5: I stayed off that one man, and honestly full disclosure.

523
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 5: If you would they and me bet something in that game,

524
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 5: I may have gone Miami money line, just because I

525
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 5: really didn't know what to make of that Colts offense,

526
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 5: and I did lean under. I didn't think it'd be

527
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 5: quite that far under. But you got to know I'm

528
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 5: not bullish on Miami at all. I don't buy them.

529
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 5: I wrote it to Washington Post about their situation of

530
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 5: probably about six seven weeks ago. You know, people in

531
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 5: this league definitely expect Mike McDaniel to be the first

532
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 5: coach fired, and that was before that debacle. You know,

533
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 5: keeping Tyreek Hill in that locker room was asinine. Building

534
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 5: a team skill position out, you know as skill positions

535
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 5: starting instead of building it from the inside out was stupid.

536
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 5: Some of these contracts have been stupid. They've gotten weaker

537
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 5: at the point of attack on both sides of the ball,

538
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 5: and they just come up small and in any kind

539
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 5: of a big spot to come up incredibly small. And

540
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 5: for them starting this season off with all they had

541
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 5: hanging over them, that was a big spot. And they

542
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 5: didn't look prepared or interested to play in any aspect

543
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 5: to play. And when a coach has allowed a culture

544
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 5: like that defester and people identified beforehand, and then it

545
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 5: manifests itself literally in the first quarter of the season.

546
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 5: You know, people don't show up to watch that. You know,

547
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 5: they'll sell their tickets for fifteen dollars on the secondary

548
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 5: market and call it a win. And I think that's

549
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 5: what's going to happen, and that's going to get the

550
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 5: owner's attention.

551
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 3: Jason.

552
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: Not a pretty game, but Washington takes a win over

553
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: the giants all the look see over at Dable and

554
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: Neighbors and Russell Wilson seventeen to thirty seven hundred and

555
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: sixty eight yards and neither Jamis Winston nor Jackson Dart

556
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 1: made available for comment post how much how close are

557
00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: we do?

558
00:25:58,880 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 3: It's midnight? Cinderrena.

559
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, Look, they really wanted to be able to get

560
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 5: at least I think, you know, talking to people there,

561
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 5: tikes weeks to half the season out of russ before

562
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 5: they had to start thinking about doing number two. That

563
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 5: was pretty bleak. And I don't think Washington's particularly special defensively.

564
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 5: Then I think we're going to see that bear out

565
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,919
Speaker 5: well pretty quickly. I think starting Thursday night we're going

566
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 5: to see that bear out, and then I think that'll

567
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 5: be the course for most of the season. So uh yeah,

568
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 5: Roff looks cooked. I mean he's looked cooked for a while.

569
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 5: And you've got some young players there. I mean, when

570
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 5: you're five or twelve to the best, you know, one

571
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 5: of the best younger seasons in the game, Like, you

572
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 5: target him twelve times, they end up in his hands

573
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 5: five times. That's that's that's going to create a multi

574
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 5: to the problems. So yeah, I mean, I don't know

575
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 5: if it's next week or not. Like, I don't think

576
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 5: that's a very good defensive team for Dallas. They can't

577
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,199
Speaker 5: move the ball at all on them. They you know,

578
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 5: they might have to do something else. I think the

579
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 5: fear is you go to dark too soon and you

580
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 5: don't want to be like Yankee him back off the field,

581
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 5: and you know, you just don't want to get into

582
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 5: silly yoyo season. So well, I think he clearly passed

583
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 5: James Bye on the depth chart as the preseason more out. Well,

584
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 5: if they were going to make a change this early

585
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 5: in the season, I'm not entirely convinced it would be

586
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 5: dark because I think they want to buy themselves a

587
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 5: little more time before they go there. But they might

588
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 5: not have that lunery.

589
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jason lock and four. That is

590
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: at Jason Locke and four. Honestly one oh five seven

591
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: the fan in Baltimore, Washington Post. Jay as always, Buddy,

592
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,719
Speaker 1: appreciate it, man, enjoy the week. We'll talk to you

593
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: next week.

594
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 5: Have a good one, gentlemen.

595
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 3: Thanks Jason.

596
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 4: Can you imagine like, can you imagine New York? Okay

597
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 4: with with with Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson's terrible, right, hey,

598
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 4: dark the desire for Jackson Darts so like, and we

599
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 4: told you this right hold you so uh can you

600
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 4: imagine saying, yes, we're gonna make a change of quarterback.

601
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 4: All right, all right, Jameis Winston will start week three.

602
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 2: No, no, that's the wrong guy.

603
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: Now can you imagine he would be one of the

604
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: three amigos from the preseason?

605
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 4: Can you imagine the fan?

606
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 3: Yes, we're gonna get Dart.

607
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 4: And officially today the Giants announced it will be Russell

608
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 4: Wilson for week two. And look, the best part for

609
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 4: Jackson Dart is probably coming up after week four. We

610
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 4: told you October first, that's your deadline. That's where you're

611
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 4: gonna see Jackson. Dart's gonna be much earlier than anybody thinks.

612
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 4: That desire to see him and how well he played

613
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 4: like Russ is an afterthought right now? But can can

614
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 4: you imagine? Yes, but Jamis will start a week week three.

615
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 4: He's here for questions right now? Oh oh, thanks guys,

616
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 4: thanks a lot, great, all right, fine, Oh yeah, what

617
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 4: do you want to ask me?

618
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 2: Why is it you you're not.

619
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 3: The chosen one?

620
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 1: This is like saying, Hey, we got the guy who's

621
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: gonna be the next great Jedi. And it's like Bill Jackson,

622

623
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,360

624
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: come on Bill. He can't even he can't even turn

625

628
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: was the rope and Dope from that Skywalker series, right.

629
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 3: He's like, no, it's not actually him.

630
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: It's the guy pretending to be in Jedi who actually

631
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,240

00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 5: No?

657
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers snapped his achilles and force naps for the Jets,

658
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: and he already got four touchdown for Pittsburgh.

659
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 3: How's it feel?

660
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 4: I'm so I can't hear you. I have you your

661
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 4: your voume turned down on my head set.

662
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 3: Can you hear me now?

663
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 4: Yeah? Can we have the play of the day? Oh yeah,

664
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 4: yea yeah.

665
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 2: McCarthy's great drop to the end zone and touchdown.

666
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 7: Justin Jefferson catches JJ McCarthy's first National Football League touchdown

667
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 7: and it's seventeen.

668
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 4: Twelve on two point conversion. No good Vikings Radio network

669
00:30:58,680 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 4: on the call.

670
00:30:59,240 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 3: There.

671
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 4: So the Vice Kings right now, thanks to McCarthy's touchdown

672
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 4: seventeen to twelve, they have a football. It's a one

673
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 4: score game. And the one thing I'm gonna say, Mike

674
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 4: is it looks like, despite the fact the Vikings can't

675
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 4: really throw the football, it looks like maybe they're wearing

676
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 4: down the Bears a little bit because they're running with

677
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 4: a little bit more success now as the game goes

678
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 4: on than they did earlier. Maybe whether it's the Bears

679
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 4: getting tired or not, but it seems like they're able

680
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 4: to open up some more space for the running game

681
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 4: in the last few minutes.

682
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: Bears also did they did themselves no favors. After the

683
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: missed fifty yard field goal that looked like a knuckleball,

684
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: they go straight down the field, dude. The Viking six

685
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: plays sixty yards for the touchdown less than three minutes.

686
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: The two catches for Jefferson for thirty yards, but Jordan

687
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: Mason running the ball with authority. Bears get the ball

688
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: back and it's a quick three and out, and they

689
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: were lucky that van Gankele couldn't didn't have more stick

690
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: him on his pall, otherwise it would have been a

691
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: pick six.

692
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: Reverting to some bad, bad things.

693
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: In the final minutes of the third quarter, after playing

694
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: pretty clean, Caleb Williams with a couple of mistakes and

695
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: got away with a bad one there. But they go

696
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: three and out and now we have the Vikings on

697
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: the other side, to your point, now running the ball

698
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: with authority with both Jones and Mason.

699
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 4: So still ten minutes left to go. I'll have more

700
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 4: on this game coming up again. Still seventeen twelve Bears

701
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 4: with the lead. When you get to Week one of

702
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 4: the NFL, there's lots of times to react and overreact.

703
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 4: Lok ESPN has a whole thing Overreaction Monday and all

704
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 4: it's okay, that's great, that's kind of fun.

705
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna say, like Taco Tuesday, where everybody already

706
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: did that and then you try to brand it.

707
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 4: But do you get food, If you get food, greater, Sure,

708
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 4: there's food there somewhere. I mean, it's what's overreaction. I mean,

709
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know. You get turnovers, Apple

710
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 4: turnover reaction.

711
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: You get a bunch of like pastries to try to

712
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: make yourself feel better. I might, Hey, if you want

713
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:43,959
Speaker 1: to make it pastry Monday. If you if you can

714
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 1: get food, I can. I can get behind any sort

715
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: of Monday. Okay, you put food involved. Yeah, but one

716
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: story not an overreaction. It's bad. It's gonna get worse.

717
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: It ain't a week one thing for the Miami Dolphins

718
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: who showed up yesterday against the.

719
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 3: Did they really well?

720
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: There were people wearing uniforms on the field. That's fair,

721
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 4: So they did show up. That's as bad as start

722
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 4: as you can get. And I told you in the offseason,

723
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 4: I can't get over how far the Dolphins fell in

724
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 4: a year from they're gonna own the AFC with their

725
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,719
Speaker 4: new brand of football and all the speedsters they have

726
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 4: to Now it looks like it's.

727
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 3: Gonna be a rebuild.

728
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 4: Now. I don't know that Mike McDaniel makes it through

729
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 4: the season. Tyreek Hill will be on a new team

730
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 4: by the beginning of October. Already he is kind of

731
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 4: pouting on the sideline. He's gonna be gone. And this

732
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 4: looks like I bet you the last year for Tua

733
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 4: in Miami too. You saw the Colts players saying, we

734
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 4: made to a panic yesterday. He's never even though we

735
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 4: got the contract, he's never gotten the hug from Miami

736
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 4: that yes, you're the guy we're building this team around. Clearly,

737
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 4: hey McDaniel came in, had a vision with Tua, trying

738
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 4: to make it work, but this is a disaster. They

739
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 4: looked like they didn't want to be there. They looked

740
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 4: like they were playing a week seventeen or eighteen game

741
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 4: where we've been eliminated.

742
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: For a couple of weeks. Now we're not showing U

743
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: already for the offseason. This is oh bad.

744
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 4: And the season's just gonna get worse for the Dolphins,

745
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 4: like I mean, could be in the running for the

746
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 4: number one pick NFL worse because you don't start a

747
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 4: season like this and all of a sudden things get better.

748
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 4: They've not bought into the message, or they've bought out

749
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 4: of the Mike McDaniel message, and it's gonna get ugly.

750
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 4: Guys are gonna get traded again last year for two

751
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 4: or they're gonna say we're gonna want to start over

752
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 4: and somebody will think, hey, we can make tour work

753
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 4: here and we know what his contract is will be okay.

754
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 4: But this is as bad as it could be for.

755
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: My Yeah, I mean you're looking at it. You've neutralized

756
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 1: what should have been two good weapons. Right when we

757
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: talk about Tyreek Hill, when you could say maybe he's

758
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: on the down side of his career, can still make

759
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,320
Speaker 1: big plays, but they're disconnected. Then you got Jalen Wattle,

760
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: who's a non factor and was missing in action most

761
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: of last year, couldn't get anything going in the ground game.

762
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: Hell you and d Zach Wilson taken snaps by the

763
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,439
Speaker 1: end of things right for fantasy purposes. He was down

764
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 1: in scoring alongside Sam Darnold. Yeah see, I got Sam

765
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: back into the show. But fourteen to twenty three, just

766
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: one hundred and fourteen yards touchdown to a chan and

767
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 1: two picks. Just a dismal effort all around.

768
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:05,919
Speaker 3: It was. It was a no show.

769
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: And we watch, you know, the Colts do something that

770
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: hasn't been done right. They scored on every position with

771
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones at the helm.

772
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 4: I mean posing that again, this is as bad as

773
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 4: a start as you could be. They had absolutely nothing

774
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 4: going on as a bad are a bad energy, bad everything.

775
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 4: It's as bad as you think it is for the Dolphins.

776
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: Now, carly Ers Gordon was down on the sideline with
