I mean, you you've played 68 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: the game. 69 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 3: You see these guys, I know, have you ever seen 70 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: a confrontation like that before with players and the media 71 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: and just it was ugly. I mean I was there, 72 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: but I'm reading about it hearing about it's ugly. I 73 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 3: got to get your perspective about this. I mean, isn't 74 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 3: this someone on the ball club, like the PR guy 75 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 3: would say, look, you know, whatever happens over I write, 76 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 3: whatever they say, please button your lip walk away. And 77 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: I've been a piece our guy for pro teams and 78 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: you know, I talked to the fellas and I thank goodness, 79 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: I never had a situation like that personally. I did 80 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: when I was on talk radio in Cincinnati. We'll get 81 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 3: to that in a minute. But have you seen that 82 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: as a player? 83 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 4: Man, that's a tough one. No, I haven't seen that often. 84 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 4: But that is, Ah, that's kind of nuts. Now, depending 85 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: on the context. Without knowing the context of what was 86 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 4: actually written and what was said about Joe Embiid's personal life, 87 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 4: his family, his brother and those things, it's hard to 88 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 4: fully like weigh in. But what I will say is 89 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 4: Embiid always has to take the high road. Like regardless 90 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 4: of what the columnists wrote and penned, he always takes 91 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 4: the high road. Now they can debate, they can have 92 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 4: a discussion, but at no point can he touch him, 93 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 4: confront him, push him, or those things. And that's one 94 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: thing that like athletes or anyone in the spotlight. They 95 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 4: have to learn, because it's no different than Jason Kelsey 96 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: having to deal with the fan at Penn State using 97 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 4: a homophobic slur to describe his brother and Taylor Swift 98 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 4: like athletes now one and ever have to understand, like 99 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 4: the opinions come fast and furious, and they come more personal, 100 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 4: and they come in your face more so than they 101 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 4: used to. But you got to stay away. You got 102 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 4: to keep your distance. Joy and Be cannot engage in 103 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 4: that kind of conduct. And I'm sure the NBA will 104 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 4: find him heavily for that. 105 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 2: It's amazing. 106 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 3: And b they send the story and be continued several 107 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: instances of profanity and Hayes the columnists. He offered an 108 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 3: apology which Embiid did not want. And this is what 109 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 3: Embiid said, quote that's not the f in first time. 110 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 3: This is what Embiid said. Look, I don't think that 111 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 3: I think they're both wrong. I think that Hayes maybe 112 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: went over the line a little bit with writing about 113 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: his family. You know, you're a columnist right about the 114 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 3: play of him, you know, in the game on the court. 115 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 3: And I got into it back in the day. Rob 116 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 3: Dibble the relief picture. One of the nasty boys on 117 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Reds used to Yeah, I called him Rob Dribble. 118 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 3: I used to call him Rob Dribble and get on 119 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 3: them pretty good. And I went in to the but 120 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 3: you know, you got to face the music when you 121 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 3: do that, you know, you got to face the consequences. 122 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: And I went into to the clubhouse on many occasions 123 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: and he you know, he never hit me. 124 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 2: But I got it verbally from it. 125 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 4: It gets, it gets a little testy, for sure. 126 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's okay. 127 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 3: I mean it's it's not a big deal and you 128 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 3: live and learning and that's the end of it. And uh, 129 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 3: you know, I got into it with Ken Griffy Jr. 130 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: With now But but back in the day, I remember 131 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 3: when the Cincinnati Reds were playing the Florida Marlins and 132 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 3: the team was staying in a hotel, but he stayed 133 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 3: on a yacht. And I said, why the hell can't 134 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: he stay with his tone, with his team. Why does 135 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 3: he have to stay along on his yacht? And he 136 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 3: found out about it. He got all haffy with me. 137 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 3: But you know, it's okay. You know, he had a 138 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 3: blow off steam a little bit it's all right. Things 139 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 3: move on, not the end of the world. But you know, 140 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what is the end of the world 141 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 3: is that James Franklin can't beat Ohio State. That's that's 142 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: the end of the world. I mean, yesterday's game was 143 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 3: it was ugly. It really was that. That game was ugly. 144 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,239 Speaker 3: Penn State's offense was terrible. I don't understand what's happening 145 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 3: and why James Franklin can't beat Ohio State. He's one 146 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 3: in ten against Ohio State as a coach. What's the 147 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 3: did you see that game? It was just that couldn't 148 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: put oh. 149 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 4: They couldn't put it in. There was a bad call 150 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 4: that was involved. They jumped out on them. It was 151 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 4: a ten to oh I think it was a ten 152 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 4: o lead for Penn State early. First thing, I would 153 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 4: say not many teams have beaten Ohio State in the 154 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 4: last decade, so he's not alone in losing with them. 155 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 4: I know people like to point to his record versus 156 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: teams in the top five, but typically if a team 157 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: is in the top five, you're not supposed to beat them. 158 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 4: This is one though they're number three ranked in the country. 159 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 4: In Penn State. This is one that should have been 160 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 4: a pretty even matchup. They just weren't able to get 161 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 4: it done. And look, there's a lot of umbradge and 162 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 4: outrage and a lot of people who feel like Penn 163 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 4: State can't win the big one. But I would just 164 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 4: point out that when you look at Penn State's record, 165 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 4: you look at what he has done, you look at 166 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 4: how they're parentally in the top ten under him, Like 167 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 4: it's hard to knock him, but yes, at some point 168 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 4: he has to crack the code when it comes to 169 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 4: Ohio State. But it's a code that a bunch of 170 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: coaches have had a hard time unlocking. 171 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny because I remember John Cooper at 172 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 3: Ohio State when he coached that he couldn't beat Michigan 173 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: and they basically cost him his job. I don't know 174 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 3: if the alum's go crazy that's what it's all about. 175 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 3: But you know, to me, James Franklin is a coach. 176 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 3: He's a football coach. You know, you're as good as 177 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: the players that you bring in. And maybe they're not 178 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: paying these guys. Maybe that's what it's all about. Maybe 179 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 3: they're not I just don't know. 180 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 4: But if you look at if you look at what 181 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 4: they brought in, like the players that they brought in, 182 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 4: look at the number of draft picks that they've had 183 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 4: in recent years. So they certainly have talent. Uh, they 184 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: just haven't been able to get it. Now, everyone does this, 185 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 4: and we won't make excuses for James Franklin, but this 186 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 4: is what we'll say, all right, He's dealing with new 187 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 4: coordinators at offense, defense, and special teams because they're all 188 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 4: brand new. So sometimes continuity plays a role in it. 189 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: But in this last game, this is just a tough 190 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: game that Ohio State just happened to win. The big 191 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 4: team is the Big Ten is a tough conference. It 192 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 4: rivals the SEC when it comes to the pedigree and 193 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 4: the toughness and the gauntlet that you have to navigate 194 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 4: to win it. So it's one of those things. But 195 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 4: he has to own it. They have not been able 196 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 4: to knock off Ohio State. It will continue to be 197 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 4: a thorn in his side until he's able to do it. 198 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 4: But a lot of teams haven't been able to walk 199 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 4: that walk when it comes to the buck eyes. 200 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 3: Right, and they're still going to be in the playoffs 201 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 3: because they'll be in the final twelve there's no doubt 202 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 3: about that. I mean, when rankings come out on Tuesday night, 203 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 3: they'll be in the top ten. They'll fall form three, 204 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 3: maybe they'll go to six or seven, but they'll still 205 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 3: be in the top ten. There's no doubt they're there. 206 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 3: I mean, and that's the good news. As far as 207 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 3: the expanded playoffs are concerned. The fan base is going 208 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: ton itchy to get Nancy. But I don't think a 209 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 3: coach should lose his job because he can't beat a 210 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 3: certain team. I think it's crazy, but that's what's happened. 211 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 3: I mean it's happened over the years. 212 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 2: It's nuts. 213 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 3: I mean they have had multiple wins over teams with 214 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 3: winning records, and that's a key. So I think they 215 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 3: have had a decent season. But I tell you what 216 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: shocked me even more so yesterday Pit Not only did 217 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 3: they lose to SMU. I mean they got drilled by 218 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 3: SMU forty eight twenty five. I mean at the half 219 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 3: was something like twenty three to three. I mean, they 220 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 3: just rolled over them. It's crazy what SMU did well. 221 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: A couple things when it comes to Pitt have been 222 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 4: living dangerously the last few weeks. They've won a handful 223 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 4: of games that have been one score games, and so 224 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 4: at some point that to catch up with you if 225 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 4: you don't solve the issues that have led you to 226 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 4: have so many tight games too. SMU is underrated. Underrated. 227 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 4: They go to the ACC. They have the money to 228 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 4: compete at a high level in that conference, being located 229 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: in Dallas, being a school of affluence, they can drop 230 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 4: some nil and like attract the players, like that offense. 231 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 4: That offense that they run. Man, it's high power, up tempo. 232 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 4: They can stress you in a bunch of different ways, 233 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 4: and they have really good players. It's just that they're 234 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 4: not the national brand that it wance worse, so people 235 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 4: have forgotten how good SMU could be. But they're back. 236 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 4: They're back in a major way, and this is going 237 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 4: to give them an opportunity to win the ACC and 238 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 4: really rubber stamp their ticket in terms of being back 239 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 4: to being a team that has a national following and 240 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 4: has some national prominence. 241 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: Bucky Brooks, you mentioned the term offense, and when I 242 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 3: hear offense, I really don't think of the University of Iowa. 243 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 2: But what's the deal now? 244 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 3: They put a forty two big ones yesterday over Wisconsin 245 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: forty two to ten. I mean, what has happened to 246 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 3: the offensive situation at Iowa? They have a new offensive coordinator, 247 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 3: I guess. I mean they're averaging almost thirty one points 248 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 3: a game. 249 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 4: Now. 250 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 3: They couldn't score, they couldn't sniff the end zone in 251 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 3: the years past. Now they're putting up points. 252 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 4: Well, he had to get rid of his son as 253 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 4: the offensive coordinator. They've been able to make that switch 254 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: and change. And you know, they've always been able to 255 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 4: play at a high level when it comes to playing 256 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 4: good defense. Like they're masterful in terms of defense in 257 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 4: those things, and they didn't need a great offense. They 258 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: just needed an offense that could match or compliment what 259 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 4: they did defensively. They're beginning to put it all together, 260 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 4: and so it's an interesting thing to watch. But yeah, 261 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 4: I always putting points up. 262 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 3: Okay, now a question because I can't figure out this 263 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: school South Carolina. 264 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: Okay, they had some tough ones. 265 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 3: They have some close ones that had a tough one 266 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 3: thing with Georgia. A couple of weeks ago. They beat 267 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 3: up on Texas A and m ES. They beat them 268 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: pretty good forty four to twenty. I mean, are they 269 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 3: that good or maybe these teams that faced them don't 270 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: have I mean, I get it. You got an eighteen 271 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: nineteen year old kid and you say, oh, South Carolina, 272 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: I mean we should roll them. 273 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 2: Maybe they don't try. I don't know. 274 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: I've never put on the uniform and played against in 275 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 3: college football, but I'm sure there's something to be said about, 276 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 3: you know, getting up mentally against a team that you 277 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 3: really don't respect that much. And maybe that's why you 278 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 3: falter and you lose to them. Could that be the reason? 279 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 3: How does Style Carolina be Texas A and M. 280 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 4: I think in that conference it's really hard. Right they 281 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 4: have a big win against LSU, then they have to 282 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 4: line back up and play the next game against a 283 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 4: really competitive, scrappy South Carolina squad. And no matter what 284 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 4: we think, it's hard to keep eighteen to twenty two 285 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 4: year old kids motivated and locked in. And when you 286 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 4: have a team that is unable to focus and unable 287 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: to have the emotional maturity to bring it, this is 288 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 4: what happens. South Carolina was much better than their record indicated. 289 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 4: And sometimes if your focus is not on man, you 290 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 4: can walk into a bus saw. And what they did 291 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 4: is they walked into a bus saw or hornets, and 292 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 4: that's whatever you want to call it. That was down 293 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 4: in Williamsbright Stadium in South Carolina. That's what they walked into. 294 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 4: Able to overcome it, and the fact that South Carolina 295 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 4: was able to score with I think it was a 296 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 4: twenty four lead or deficits or whatever margin in the 297 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 4: second half where they shut them out put twenty four 298 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 4: points on the board, really a testament to how will 299 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 4: South Carolina has been playing. 300 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 3: All Right, I'm going to say this now, and you 301 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 3: may remember this as well, but I remember back in 302 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 3: the day, and I don't think it was that long 303 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 3: ago when you talk about powerhouse football programs, you had 304 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 3: to mention the University of Nebraska. 305 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 2: You remember that, I'm sure right. 306 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 3: Nebraska was always there and it was like the Nebraska 307 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 3: Kansas game, Nebraska Oklahoma game was a big game every year. Yesterday, 308 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 3: Nebraska lost twenty seven to twenty to UCLA. Ucla was 309 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 3: two and five. Okay, Nebraska looked like they were coming back. 310 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 3: They started the season five and one. You need to 311 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 3: get six wins to get into a bowl. It looked 312 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 3: like maybe the bowl curse is over with it because 313 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 3: they have not been in a Bowl Game. Since I 314 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 3: didn't know this since twenty sixteen. They did not go 315 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 3: to a postseason bowl since twenty sixteen. It looked like 316 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 3: maybe they're turning it around five and one. Now they 317 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: lose to a two and five UCLA team twenty seven 318 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: to twenty What is wrong with Nebraska? I mean, you 319 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 3: would think when you have a tradition, things start to roll. 320 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: I mean, there's certain teams that do well all the time. 321 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 3: Because of the tradition, people and kids want to go there. 322 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 3: What happened to Nebraska? 323 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 4: Man, that's I would say that that might be a 324 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 4: little bit of a murder mystery. When what happened to them? 325 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 4: What I would say is I would say that, you know, 326 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 4: we thought they were trending in the right direction. They 327 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 4: have some tough losses early in the year after big win. 328 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 4: Everyone saw the big win versus Colorado, and we assumed 329 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 4: that they were back. It was a national game, it 330 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 4: was coach Prime, it was a lot of buzz and momentum. 331 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 4: And then we saw them lose like to Illinois. We 332 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 4: saw them lose some tough games and you know, you said, 333 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 4: they just happened to catch them yesterday. I mean, it's 334 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 4: look it's college football. I think now whenever we are 335 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 4: seeing the topsy turvy nature of that game, and the 336 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 4: landscape is more even than it's ever been, and there's 337 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 4: there's just something too, there's something to it. It's crazy. 338 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: I think it's good. I really do. 339 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I saw a score yesterday. I didn't 340 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 3: even watch this game. Indiana forty seven, Michigan State ten. 341 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 3: Indiana's nine to zero. You know, if you would have 342 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 3: showed me that score a year ago, I would have 343 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: think it's a topographical error. 344 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 2: I really did. 345 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 3: But now it's great to see a school like that. 346 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: A one time basketball school is now a football school. 347 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: They are. 348 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 3: Indiana's a football school. I think it's great at Michigan State. 349 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 3: You know, they were a power the at four and five. 350 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 3: Right now they'll be back, I'm sure, but not now. 351 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: I mean Indiana's school, they really are. It's amazing. 352 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, has him going. I mean they call themselves win 353 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 4: Deanna now as opposed to Indiana. Put a little W 354 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 4: in front of that, because they've been rolling out and 355 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 4: putting up school work. I mean, this is gonna be 356 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 4: interesting to watch Indiana. I think they faced Michigan coming 357 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 4: up Michigan who's been struggling, and so you know, they 358 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 4: would love nothing more than to put a big number 359 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 4: on the Wolverines to officially signify kind of being relevant. 360 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 4: But you got to understand this guy Sneta came over, 361 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: brought his whole crew from JMU with him, and they've 362 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 4: been able to get it done. And it's an interesting 363 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 4: thing to kind of see how this team has kind 364 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: of been able to do it. 365 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 3: Good news for you though you're in North Carolina Tar Hills. 366 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 3: Matt Brown beats up on Florida State. Atho, everybody beats 367 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 3: up in Florida State now thirty five to eleven. But 368 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 3: I didn't know this was the first time Matt Brown 369 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 3: has defeated Florida State, his alma matter. First time he 370 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 3: did it. So they're five and four and I need 371 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: one more win and then North Carolina goes to a bowl. 372 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: So that's good. 373 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is good. And I'll say that it's been 374 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 4: a very emotional time for North Carolina coach Brown. They 375 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 4: had a player pass away succumb to cancer, so it's 376 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 4: been a very emotional situation for coach Brown. But they 377 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 4: were able to get a win. They're able to kind 378 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 4: of bounce back and get on track. And so you 379 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 4: got to feel good for coach Brown that they were 380 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 4: able to navigate navigate some turf circumstances for a game, 381 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 4: losing streak, death of a player and all that to 382 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: kind of find a way to get back on track. 383 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 3: Now there are two more undefeated teams. Oregon continues to 384 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 3: be undefeated in nine to zero rolling over Michigan. It's 385 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 3: amazing coming off of national championship. Michigan's now five and four. 386 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 3: So coach Horball got out just in time, he really did. 387 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 3: He probably knew, don't you think he probably knew what's 388 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 3: going on? 389 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, they had a senior heavy class. There's gonna 390 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 4: be a lot of transition anyway. And when you have 391 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 4: the back to back years that well, I mean, I 392 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 4: think it was three years in a row that Michigan had, 393 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 4: it was going to be very, very difficult for them 394 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 4: to sustain it. Yeah, they're taking a step back. I 395 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 4: don't know if anyone thought that they would step back 396 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,719 Speaker 4: to this degree, but it's been tough for them. And look, man, 397 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna keep saying, we talk about the SEC and 398 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 4: we always have the reverence for that conference. We have 399 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 4: to give the Big Ten that same thing because the 400 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 4: team got what by Oregon top five team. You know, 401 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 4: you think about Ohio State being in the mix, you 402 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 4: think about Penn State being up there. There's some really 403 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 4: good teams in the Big Ten, and it's just hard 404 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 4: to kind of move around all those land mines that 405 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 4: you're now seeing on the conference schedule. 406 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: Right, last, but not least, I do want to mention 407 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 3: the World Series to you if I can. All right, 408 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 3: and this I can't take credit for this. This is 409 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 3: from the great Hall of Fame sports writer Hal McCoy 410 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 3: from the Dayton Daily News in Dayton, Ohio. He said, 411 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 3: it's a good thing the Yankees didn't win, because if 412 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 3: they did, they probably would have dropped the trophy. All right, 413 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 3: So you could put that puzzle together. You understand that 414 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 3: it was a great World Series. I enjoyed it, and 415 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 3: I saw the games, and I watched most of them. Again, 416 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 3: you flip back and forth a little bit, but the 417 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 3: Yankees kind of coughed it up. They really did, so 418 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 3: we'll see. I'm sure you watch part of it as well. 419 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 4: Right, Oh, come on, man, being in La liking the Dodgers, 420 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 4: loving the Dodgers. How could you not watch that? And 421 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 4: the thing that stands out to me, I guess in 422 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 4: the fallout the aftermath of the Dodgers winning, the scouting 423 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 4: reports that leaked out in terms of what the Dodgers 424 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 4: received on the Yankees, and how they talked about the 425 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 4: Yankees prioritizing talent over technique, and how they were not 426 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 4: a team that played close attention to the details from 427 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 4: a fundamental standpoint, and how all of those things, those 428 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 4: fundamental errors that they had cited came back to bite them, 429 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 4: whether it's the fundamental drops, not knowing where to throw 430 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 4: the ball in certain situations, the base running flaws and miscues, 431 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 4: all of those things that the Yankees didn't do well 432 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 4: were highlighted. And there is a saying that they always 433 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 4: talk about in pro sports and the under playoff pressure, 434 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 4: your flaws are exposed. Under the bright lights of that, 435 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 4: we get to see all your wars. And unfortunately for 436 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 4: the Yankees, all of their wars were illuminated. And look, 437 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 4: it cost him a cost them a World Series. Were 438 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: not seeing that they should have won it, but they 439 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 4: certainly could have won it if they had taken care 440 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 4: of the details from a fundamental standpoint. 441 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 2: Well said, all right, he's Bucky Brooks. 442 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 3: Get him on Twitter at Bucket Brooks at Indy Furman 443 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 3: FSR Hey eight o'clock Easton.

The Jets over 468 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 3: the Texans twenty one to thirteen. The Jets trailed in 469 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. Is it too little too late? First 470 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 3: of all, Garrett Wilson's two touchdowns, the second one he 471 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 3: the Jets at fourteen ten lead. It was an unbelievable catch. 472 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 3: Still about Aaron Rodgers twenty two for thirty two for 473 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 3: two to eleven. He was brutal in the first half. 474 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 3: Though Jets are three and six, everybody's all excited, knowing 475 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 3: New York. Is it too little too late? And I'm 476 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 3: gonna tell you something. I watched that game. Every time 477 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers was hit, it took him a long time 478 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 3: to get back up. I'm saying, wait a minute, this 479 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: guy is like forty years old, and like I watched 480 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 3: Joe Flacco he's forty years old, and it's like night 481 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 3: and day. Joe Flacco is not the same forty year 482 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 3: old guy that Aaron Rodgers is. 483 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 2: Do you agree with that? 484 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 4: I have one agree with you. I would say the 485 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: difference is Aaron Rodgers' most recent injuries have robbed him 486 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 4: of some of the stuff that made him great, his mobility, 487 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 4: his ability to extend plays and by time and do 488 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 4: all of the uh, improvisational stuff that he used to do. Secondly, 489 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 4: like look, father time catches up with everybody, and people 490 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 4: weren't paying close attention to Aaron Rodgers. There was a 491 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 4: dip that he had experienced that led the Green Bay 492 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 4: Packers to draft Jordan Love. He kind of took that motivated, 493 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 4: came back and played well for two years. I think 494 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 4: he went back to back MVPs. But when you started 495 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 4: to look at his numbers, his numbers were gradually declining. 496 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 4: Yards for we're coming down passer rating. Uh, even if 497 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 4: not necessarily does that sound the interception ratio because he 498 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 4: is one who would rather take a sack than turn 499 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 4: the ball over. But you can see the regression or 500 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 4: not not even the regression, but you can see him 501 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 4: just kind of decline and descending a little bit now 502 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 4: is full scale because he doesn't have the same team 503 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: around him, doesn't have deed I would say, the running 504 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 4: game or the offensive line to be able to kind 505 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 4: of punish people, so they can't really operate heavily off 506 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 4: play action. He wants to be in the shotgun so 507 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 4: we can see everything and get away from the pass rush. 508 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 4: But it's different operating out the gun. Primarily you have 509 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 4: good wide receivers, but it just isn't all fitting. And 510 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 4: they may win a few more games, but I don't 511 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 4: think this seam to make a run. They won't make 512 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 4: a run, a deep playoff run. The schedule breaks in 513 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 4: their favor, but they're not a dangerous team. 514 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 3: They're not a dangerous They may be a more I'm 515 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 3: with you within. 516 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 4: So I mean, it's a it's a nice story because 517 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 4: it's Aaron Rodgers, because it's New York. But no, I 518 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 4: can't see that. 519 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 3: Okay, let's squeeze in the Cowboys Falcons before we got 520 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 3: to Kevin Watt and the sports up there. Okay, Cowboys 521 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 3: are three and four. The look two straight and Jerry 522 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 3: Jones said he didn't think would be this rough. Who's 523 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 3: he kidding. It's always rough. Every week is rough? Why 524 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 3: would he say something like that? What's he smoking? I 525 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 3: don't get it. And what do players think when they 526 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 3: hear something like that. If I'm a player stopping her 527 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 3: up every week? My owner is saying to think of 528 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 3: it not that rough, and I say, hey, you come 529 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: down here and you put their shoulder pads on and 530 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 3: see how rough it is. 531 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: It is. 532 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 2: It is rough, and it's gonna be rough. I don't 533 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 2: get it. 534 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: I mean, the Cowboys added last game last Sunday's gaming 535 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 3: us the forty nine ers. They will rank dead last 536 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 3: in the NFL in rushing offense. The team only averaged 537 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: what fewer than eighty yards per game on the ground. 538 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 3: Come on, you have no running game. Your whole offense 539 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: is cde Lamb and Doc Prescott. 540 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 2: That's it. Basically, that's it. 541 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 4: That is it, and it is one of the things 542 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 4: that they have to kind of work through. Yeah, that 543 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 4: is definitely not what you necessarily want in terms of, 544 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 4: you know, just kind of being one dimensional. And the 545 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 4: thing about Jerry Jones is because he's playing the role 546 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 4: of owner and general manager, so he's the ultimate team builder. 547 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 4: He has to be able to look at his team 548 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 4: with a critical eye and understand where his team stacks 549 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 4: versus the rest of the National Football League, and he 550 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 4: hasn't been able to do that. And one of the 551 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 4: things that you do as a general manager, outside of 552 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 4: looking to see where your team stacks, you work with 553 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 4: the coach to figure out how can we win with 554 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 4: what we have? What are the things that we may 555 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 4: need to do from a tactical standpoint to win games. 556 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 4: Does it mean we have to slow the game down? 557 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 4: Do we speed the game up? Can we add a 558 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 4: piece or two off the waiver wire or a trade 559 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 4: that doesn't cost us an arm and a leg to 560 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 4: help the team. Those conversations should be ongoing. So for 561 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 4: Jerry Jones to not understand how rough it could be 562 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 4: either they didn't have open and honest conversations. Is about 563 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 4: the state of the team, or is his own navitae 564 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 4: believing in some of the players that they already had 565 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 4: on the roster, even though there's no evidence to support 566 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 4: that optimism. 567 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,239 Speaker 3: They lost thirty twenty fourth to the forty nine ers 568 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: last week, and Dallas run for fifty six yards and 569 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,400 Speaker 3: nineteen carries in that game, two point nine yards per attempt. 570 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 3: The forty nine ers run a two in to twenty 571 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 3: three yards on thirty six carries. That's basically any difference 572 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 3: of that ballgame. And today, I think Atlanta's going to 573 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 3: beat the Dallas Cowboys today. 574 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 2: I really do. I just think they will. 575 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 3: I think Dallas right now is in a funk, and 576 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: all you gotta do is, like, you know, load it 577 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 3: up against Cdee Lamb and the Cowboys struggle against the run, 578 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 3: and they're gonna go against running back Bejonn Robinson. 579 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 2: So I like Atlanta, that's it. 580 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's a good matchup. There's some more 581 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: innertronmole Ezekiel Elliott is not traveling. Didn't like the fact 582 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 4: that he was going to be inactive for the game, 583 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 4: so may have had like a little dust up with 584 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 4: the coach, and so he is pouting back in Dallas 585 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 4: Fort Worth and the Cowboys are trying to play without him. 586 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 4: But look, man, this is a Cowboys team that the 587 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 4: talent doesn't match the expectations. And so everyone who is 588 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 4: hoping for America's team to kind of get back on 589 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 4: track find a way to climb into the division. It's 590 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,239 Speaker 4: gonna be a long year. It's gonna be a long 591 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 4: year for the Cowboys, and Dak Prescott's not gonna be 592 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 4: able to save them. And I will say this about 593 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 4: Dak Prescott. He is not playing well, but the things 594 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 4: around him are not the things that have allowed him 595 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 4: to have success in the past. He is making poor decisions, 596 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 4: but they also have a poorly constructed team, which is 597 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 4: also which contributes to why he's not playing really well. 598 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 3: All right, He's Bucky Brooks on Athy Foreman And by 599 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: the way, we are Fox Football, Sunny, Fox Bus Radio. 600 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 2: They're rushing to victory, they are. 601 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 3: That's coming up next live on Fox from the ti 602 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 3: Raq dot Com studios. But first, we're late, but we're sorry, 603 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 3: Kevin Wirrett. Here's the sports All good. 604 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 6: We got some injury updates for the NFL game set 605 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 6: to kick off in about a little more than six 606 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 6: hours from now. Ian Rappaport with several updates overnight as 607 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 6: Xavier Legett of the Panthers, he's dealing with a tow 608 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 6: injury Listen is questionable is expected to play today. Josh Jacobs, 609 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 6: Packers running back is questionable with an ankle injury. He 610 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 6: is limited this week but is expected to play today. 611 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 6: Jordan Love is also good to go. The Commander's optimistic 612 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 6: that running back Brian Robinson will be able to play today. 613 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 6: He's been dealing with a hamstring injury, but they do 614 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 6: want to see how he feels this morning, but the 615 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 6: team is optimistic that he will be able to play. 616 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 6: Titans running back Tony Pollard is questionable with a foot injury. 617 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 6: Didn't practice all week. Is considered a game time decision, 618 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 6: but there is optimism in the Titans organization that he 619 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 6: will be able to play today. Jaguars running back Tank 620 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 6: Bigsby and running back Travis etn are both likely to 621 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 6: play today barring a setback, and same for wide receiver 622 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 6: Brian Thomas and Gabe Davis, though appears to be more 623 00:28:56,680 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 6: of a long shot. According to Rappaport, Cowboys linebacker Eric Kendricks, 624 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 6: listened as questionable with a shoulder injury, is expected to play. 625 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 6: Tray Von Diggs did not practice this week, but is 626 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 6: considered a game time decision. Brown's corner Denzel Ward has 627 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 6: cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, so he should be on 628 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 6: the field today. Ravens corner Marlon Humphrey, who has missed 629 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 6: last week, because of his knee injury. Is expected, however, 630 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 6: to be able to play today, he'll likely be on 631 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 6: a pitch count. However, according to Rappaport in the College 632 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 6: Ranks yesterday, the big matchup of the day in Happy Valley, 633 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 6: Ohio State and Penn State. The fourth ranked buck Guy 634 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 6: is getting by the third right Niitney Lyons twenty to 635 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 6: thirteen behind a couple of touchdown passes from Will Howard 636 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 6: the world's largest outdoor cocktail party. Number two Georgia slow 637 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 6: start that the Bulldogs do get a couple of touchdown 638 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 6: passes from Beck Carson Beck in the second half to 639 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 6: pull away from Florida thirty four to thirty. Top ranked 640 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 6: Oregon an easy win against Michigan the thirty eight to 641 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 6: seventeen Number five Miami stays undefeated with a fifty three 642 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 6: to thirty one win against Duke in Indiana. There have 643 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 6: been one of the great stories of college football this 644 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 6: year as they demolish Michigan State on the road forty 645 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 6: seven to ten. Couple of upsets as Texas A and 646 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 6: m going on the road losing to South Carolina forty 647 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 6: four to twenty. Number eleven Iowa State taken down by 648 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 6: Texas Tech twenty three to twenty two, and Clemson losing 649 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 6: the Louisville thirty three to twenty one. And in the 650 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 6: NBA developing story as the league investigating seventy six Ers 651 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 6: center Joel m beat for allegedly shoving a columnist for 652 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 6: the Philadelphia Inquirer after the team's game against the Memphis 653 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 6: Grizzlies on a Saturday. Now, the Grizzlies did win this game, 654 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 6: won twenty four one oh seven, but after the game, 655 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 6: allegedly Joel Embead shoved a columnist to the Philadelphia Inquirer 656 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 6: in both Sixers locker room. So that propped the league 657 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 6: to get involved and begin an investigation. So we'll see 658 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 6: how that plays out. Beck, You guys, all right, thanks keevcing. 659 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 6: And now now here's a fact. Here's a real fact. 660 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 6: This is ugly. 661 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 3: We'll tell you about it in a minute.

All right, let me run this 665 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: by you, because if you're the agent for two attack Leavoa, 666 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 3: you feel pretty good about this twenty seven. 667 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you the number. 668 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 3: Twenty seven has the number of points scored by the 669 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 3: Dolphins in to his return last Sunday. The Dolphins began 670 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 3: the day prior to that game averaging a league wars 671 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,959 Speaker 3: to eleven points seven points a game. All right, So, 672 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 3: even though they didn't beat the Arizona Cardinals, the fact 673 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 3: that he's back there to have an offense right now, 674 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 3: all right, but the Bills have won three straight so 675 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: and the Bills have won and they found a new 676 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: way to win with a running game. They've rushed for 677 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty yards in three of the last 678 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 3: four games. So it gives him a double barrel problem 679 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 3: for the Dolphins today. James Cook had a one hundred 680 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 3: eleven yards two touchdowns against the Seahawks last week. Josh 681 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 3: Allen is twelve and two against the Dolphins. I think 682 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 3: the Bills right now are prohibited favorites to beat the 683 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 3: Dolphins today in Buffalo. 684 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 4: Who yeah, the Buffalo Bills are rolling their team that 685 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 4: has kind of found their stride in recent weeks. Josh 686 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 4: Allen is continued to do Josh Allen stuff, and the 687 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 4: thing that has kind of been lost in the Bills, 688 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 4: I guess re emergence as a power. They're doing it 689 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 4: with a physical running game. They're doing it with six 690 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 4: offensive linemen on the field. They're doing it for more 691 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 4: run heavy sets, twelve personnel packages, one running back, two 692 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 4: tight ends. They're getting a lot of knowledge out of that. 693 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 4: And even though the trade to bring a Maury Cooper 694 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 4: led us to expect that a Maori Cooper would be 695 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 4: the number one option in the passing game, we're seeing 696 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 4: Kean Coleman emerged. You're seeing Khalia Shakur take a step 697 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 4: to be like a focal point of the passing game. 698 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 4: They have Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox. It's a really 699 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 4: good team. And Sean McDermott on the other side is 700 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 4: about Look, he's one of the best in the business 701 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 4: at attacking your protections, making you play left handed, meaning 702 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 4: forcing you away from your strengths and making you play 703 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 4: to your weaknesses. This is a really good team in Buffalo, 704 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 4: and and the Miami Dolphins will soon find out how 705 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 4: to get there. 706 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 3: Today, Okay, I'm gonna let you handle this one because 707 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 3: this is going to be ugly. Raiders are at the 708 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 3: Bengals today, Raders have lost the list four. Bengals have 709 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 3: lost every game at home, and they have lost every 710 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: game when t Higgins has not played. I think there's 711 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 3: a real good correlation there. Last week against the Eagles, 712 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 3: the Bengals looked like they quit. Really it's amazing less 713 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: three games Bengals averaging eighteen points a game. I think 714 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 3: the big key in this game defensive end for the 715 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 3: raddis Max Crosby. He's going to cause problems on Joe 716 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: on the quarterback situation for Joe Burrow for the Bengals 717 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 3: because Orlando Brown's not gonna play. That's gonna be a biggie. 718 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 3: So I think the Raiders win. I really don't think 719 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 3: the Radiers win this one. 720 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 4: I think this is a game that has decided about 721 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 4: one score. Late, the Raiders have had issues when it 722 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 4: comes to turnovers and those things, and it's going to 723 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 4: continue to be a major problem. Gardner Minshew has not 724 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 4: played well, and because he hasn't played well, it's cost 725 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 4: him games. They just look they're just not functioning on 726 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 4: all cylinders. And the lack of a running game from 727 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 4: the Raiders could make it easy for Lou and a 728 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 4: Roumo to kind of dial up some stuff to create 729 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 4: some turnovers, some big play opportunities for the defense. That 730 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 4: sets up Joe Burrowing company for easy scores and short 731 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 4: fields on offense. 732 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,439 Speaker 2: All right, but still in oil. 733 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 3: I think you're right, and may go may and then 734 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 3: a tie could be a tie this kay, Who knows? 735 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 3: But I like the Raiders to come on at the end. 736 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 3: I don't know why, just I just think there could 737 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,479 Speaker 3: be some pressure on Joe Burrow when it's. 738 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 4: You're a Raiders fan deep down the side. Is something 739 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 4: about the rudy. Maybe it's the silver and black you're feeling. Yeah, 740 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 4: that's what it is. 741 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:47,439 Speaker 7: You're feeling a little Are you feeling some kind of way? 742 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 4: Yeah? We go. 743 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:49,879 Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm aythy form. 744 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 3: We are Fox Football suddeny ya you want answers, He's 745 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 3: got him. 746 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 2: Here's Bucky. 747 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 5: It's next Fox Sports. 748 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 3: All right, there's Bucky. Come right up. He's Bucky Brooks. 749 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 3: I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox Football Sunday of Fox Books, righty, 750 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 3: and we're live from the tire Rock dot Com studios. 751 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: Okay, here we go, all right, Bucky. 752 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 3: Last week, the quarterback for the Indiana Colts, Anthony Richardson 753 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 3: asked out of the game in the fourth quarter. 754 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 2: He said he was tired. 755 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 3: Have you ever witnessed this on any level or ever 756 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 3: had a teammate through this Silla coach top one your helmet, 757 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 3: say take me out, I'm tired. 758 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 4: No, not a quarterback. And that's why he's on the 759 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 4: bench right now. It is something that you cannot do 760 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 4: national football lead to quarterback. The QB one is everything. 761 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 4: He has to show up every day every week and 762 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 4: take the ball. It's one of the reasons why despite 763 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,879 Speaker 4: the up and down career, people revere Eli Manning, You're 764 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 4: always available for your team. Anthony Richardson by the opening 765 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 4: mission that he was tired. What he did is he 766 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 4: showed the level of entitlement that he has for the position. 767 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 4: Because there's everyone who looks and sees him at the 768 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 4: bottom of the league completion percentage passer rating, the way 769 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 4: that he's thrown, there's no way to he should be 770 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,959 Speaker 4: a starting quarterback. But because he was the fourth overall pick, 771 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 4: he's been entitled to keep that position. When he made 772 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 4: that admission, they had to make the decision to sit 773 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 4: him down, and he deserves to sit out for a 774 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 4: long time. 775 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 2: What is he tired from. I don't get it. 776 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 4: Why would you say no, I will say this. He 777 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 4: can be tired, but then his job is to tell 778 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 4: the coach like, hey man, I need to hand the 779 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 4: ball all four a minute whatever. He ran the ball 780 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 4: three plays in a row. He had a long scramble. 781 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 4: So I understand him being tired physically, but you never 782 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 4: can ask out. The offensive linemen are on the field 783 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 4: every play. They can't ask out. He has to stay 784 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 4: on the field. It's one of the things that you 785 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 4: have to be able to do. 786 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 2: I hear you there. 787 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 3: Okay, let's talk about tight ends in the National Football League. 788 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 3: Last week, they caught sixteen touchdown passes league wide during 789 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 3: the games of last Sunday. Why have we seen tight 790 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 3: ends busted out this year? 791 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 4: It's the easiest way to create a mismatch. One is 792 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 4: in the middle of the field, which is the easiest 793 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 4: throw to quarterback. It's the shortest throw too. The athletes 794 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 4: that are we're bringing in at tight end are athletic 795 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,919 Speaker 4: enough to be like NBA power forwards, and they're playing 796 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 4: against either linebackers that are too slow to run with 797 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 4: them down the seam or dbs that are too small 798 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 4: to deal with them when they post up. You're seeing 799 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 4: more teams take advantage of it because it looks it's easy. 800 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 4: It's easy money for the quarterback. That's why they're throwing 801 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 4: it to the tight end. 802 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 3: I knew you have the answer. I was wondering why, 803 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 3: but I knew you have the answer. That's all we 804 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 3: have asked Bucky. Now, speaking of tight ends, who's the 805 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 3: best tight end in the league this year? 806 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: Right now? 807 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 4: Man, it's tough. There's so many good ones, you know 808 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 4: what I'm saying, Like Travis Kelce is not what he 809 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 4: once was. You have the emergence of guys like Trey McBride. 810 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 4: I mean, there's so many good ones, don't I don't 811 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 4: know if I can name. I don't know if I 812 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 4: can name, like who's the top? But I can just 813 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 4: tell you that right now, there's a revolution at a position. There. 814 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 2: You go, all right, okay. 815 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,399 Speaker 3: In a losing season, it's common that players don't want 816 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 3: to play. They say they're heard, and they say they're 817 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 3: heard again. They want to sit on the bench. Have 818 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 3: you witnessed this at all? Because I would think that 819 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 3: even though the team is losing, you want to put 820 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 3: some good plays on tape. So if you're released or 821 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 3: maybe another team would want you, you want to play. 822 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 3: So I don't know why they don't want to play 823 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:17,720 Speaker 3: when the team is losing. 824 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, I wouldn't say that they don't want to play. 825 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 4: I would. I would say that NFL players are just 826 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 4: like your players that are seven and eight years old. 827 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 4: They get discouraged. And when you're discouraged, man, sometimes you 828 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 4: just don't have the same motivation and umph to go 829 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 4: play and play at a high level that others do. 830 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 4: That's it. I wouldn't say that that pro players want 831 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 4: to sit on the side they look. They love the 832 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 4: game for the most part, and they love being a 833 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 4: part of it. They love the competitive part of it. 834 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 4: But it's still very difficult to go out on the field, man, 835 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 4: when your team has no shot of winning. It's a challenge. 836 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. 837 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 3: I know that we mentioned T Higgins. The Bengals have 838 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 3: not won a game when he's not playing. And I 839 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,399 Speaker 3: know T Higgins and I know the fact that he's 840 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 3: a competitive I don't think he's dogging. 841 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 2: I think he's actually hurt. 842 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 3: Why and how he gets hurt in practice with the 843 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 3: hamstring and things like that is beyond me. 844 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 2: But I don't think he's dogging. I just don't. 845 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 4: No, he may not be. But now I will say, 846 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 4: this contract situation hanging out there, you may be more 847 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 4: cautious about your return. You may be less likely to 848 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 4: kind of risk it all coming back for the team, 849 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 4: because why am I gonna give it all to the 850 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 4: team If the team won't give it all to me. 851 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: That might play into it, But that's a business decision, 852 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 4: but it doesn't come down to you know, the player 853 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 4: not wanting to play is, oh, well, let me take 854 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 4: care of my business, because if I'm gonna be a 855 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 4: free agent, I have to get a free agency being. 856 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 3: Healthy telling comment by Joe Burrow, Bengals quarterback during his 857 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 3: news conference on Wednesday. He was asked, are you concerned 858 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 3: that the Bengals are not making moves? Other teams are 859 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 3: making moves and trades like that. He came out and 860 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 3: he said. 861 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 2: Not my job. 862 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 3: That tells me maybe I'm mistaken, But it tells me 863 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 3: like he's kind of p o now with that ball club. 864 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 4: Oh, he definitely is, because anyone who knows the Burr, 865 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 4: he's the ultimate competitor. He's the guy who say that 866 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 4: all we gotta do is win seven out of our 867 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 4: last nine games to get to it. We'll see what 868 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 4: it looks like the windows open. But I'm sure he's 869 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 4: frustrated because he likes winning. 870 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 2: Unbelievable. 871 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 3: Hey, who's the best at this position?

I commend 892 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 3: you for that. I mean, you're involved with the Jacksonville 893 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 3: Jaguars and you're right at NFL dot com, which I 894 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,839 Speaker 3: love and I'm going to miss that when the seasons over. 895 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 3: Every Friday, sometimes Saturday morning, it comes up NFL dot 896 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 3: Conye got the column, and this week you wrote about 897 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 3: the defensive ends of defensive tackles in the National Football League. 898 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 3: Aaron Donald obviously he you say he helped redefine the 899 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 3: defensive tackle position during his ten years in the league. 900 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 3: Now he's gone here, retired, three times Defensive Player of 901 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 3: the Year. And you were wondering who would take on 902 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 3: the mantle of the top dog at DT. All right, 903 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 3: so you listed a couple of guys. I'll throw them 904 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 3: out there and you tell me you know what you 905 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 3: think about them, if you may. And I think there's 906 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 3: a connection. We talked about that last week. We talked 907 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 3: about a connection that you have with one of them. 908 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 3: But what about Cameron Hayward with the Pittsburgh Sails, who's 909 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 3: rather old at thirty five, but he's got to be 910 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 3: I guess the top four of five, right. 911 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, like you know, what's what's interesting about him is 912 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 4: he's bounced back from a sub part year. People were 913 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 4: ready to kind of cast him aside, but just kind 914 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 4: of showed back up three sacks this year, very active 915 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 4: at the point of attack, does a really good job 916 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 4: of kind of playing the robbin to TJ. Weise Batman, 917 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 4: and it works for the Pittsburgh Seilers. This is a 918 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 4: team that surprisingly since the top to AFC North and 919 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 4: it's because Cam Hayward has done a really good job 920 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 4: bouncing back and being a dominant play on the inside. 921 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,799 Speaker 3: All right, now, and you got you got a guy 922 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 3: right now who's kind of, you know, like you say, 923 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 3: causing a soap opera. Quinn Williams at the New York 924 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 3: Jets at the age of twenty six. 925 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 2: Is he in is? 926 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 4: Yeah? 927 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,800 Speaker 2: What's the deal with him? But as a player? 928 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 5: Uh? 929 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: Not bad? 930 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 3: Okay, not that i'd say you again, top five, top four, 931 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 3: top five DT's. 932 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 2: In the league. 933 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 3: But you know, maybe between the years he needs to 934 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 3: have a little bit of a organizational change. 935 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I'm saying that's that's Andy Furman 936 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 4: saying that, not Bucky Brooks I'm saying what I'm saying, 937 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 4: Quinny Williams is a dominant player on the inside. When 938 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,800 Speaker 4: their defense is playing well, it's because he's really getting 939 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 4: after it. And as they continue to try to make 940 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 4: a late push, it's gonna be really critical for him 941 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 4: to kind of be there and make some of those 942 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 4: things happen inside. He is a unique fine because he's 943 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 4: a dominant run stuffer, but he has great passer of skills, 944 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 4: super athletic, strong, explosive. He has all the traits that 945 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 4: you look for when you're when you when you're searching 946 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 4: for a defensive tackle. 947 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 2: Okay, here's the guy. 948 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 3: Cj It gets a lot of credit certainly because he's 949 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 3: on a great defensive unit, but he's also on a 950 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 3: Super Bowl championship team. To tell you about Chris Jones 951 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 3: three sacks and seven games. Is he hype too much? 952 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 3: Because I mean, he's the guy that everybody says he's 953 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 3: the best, he's the main man. But certainly he plays 954 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 3: with a great unit and he's got a great defensive 955 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 3: coordinating Steve Spagnolo. But the point is that is he 956 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 3: as good as advertised or is it just hype? 957 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 4: No? I think he's as good. As advertised, he's a 958 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 4: really good player. He does a great job of making 959 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 4: things happen, and they c spec Noulo doesn't mind putting 960 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,439 Speaker 4: him on the wink link. He will find a way 961 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 4: to put him on the player who's most vulnerable along 962 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 4: that line, and he'll do it in critical moments. They 963 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 4: also will blitz around Chris Jones to ensure that he 964 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 4: has one on one blocking, and if he gets one 965 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 4: one blocking, he's going to defeat that dominant player. And 966 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 4: one of the reasons why the Kancity Chiefs have been 967 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 4: able to kind of make the transformation from being an 968 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 4: offensive lead team to a defensive lead team is because 969 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 4: he's been so brilliant. He's a Defensive Player of the 970 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 4: Year candidate every year. At some point we're gonna have 971 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 4: to give him the award because he's that good. 972 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: Okay. 973 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 3: And the reason why I'm so interested in this DT 974 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 3: rankings right now that you've written about an NFL dot 975 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 3: com is because there's a connection. I remember last week 976 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 3: you talked about a place for the Giants dexter Lawrence 977 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 3: Sexy dex it because you said your dad coached him, right, 978 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 3: So tell me you say he's the best, the best 979 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 3: DT in the league right now. 980 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 4: He is man. We've never seen anyone in the league 981 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 4: at his size lead the league in sacks. He has 982 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 4: none sacks right now going into this week. And the 983 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 4: thing about Dexter, Look, the size makes him a powerful 984 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 4: guy at the point of attack. But it's the footwork, 985 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 4: it's the quickness, it's the relentlessness, and I will say this, 986 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 4: the stamina. You're not gonna see a guy that size 987 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 4: with the stamina to be able to rush after the passer, 988 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 4: down after down after down after down, play hard against him, 989 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 4: run and do some of the other stuff that he 990 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 4: does for the Giants. But he's a unique fine And yeah, 991 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 4: am I jaded partially because he played for my dad 992 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 4: in high school? Absolutely, But this is a really, really 993 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 4: good player and he's worthy of getting all the attention 994 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 4: that he's getting. 995 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:42,959 Speaker 2: So he weighs about three twenty. 996 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 3: Do you see him like tapping his helmet and telling 997 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 3: the coaching staff take me out, I'm tired. 998 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 8: Nah, No, you're not gonna see that a lot. 999 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 4: You're not gonna see that a lot like that is 1000 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 4: that is one of the things you won't see. Yeah, 1001 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 4: he's not gonna he's not gonna tap out. He's not 1002 00:45:58,760 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 4: gonna tap out on us. 1003 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 3: Like that before we roll into another ball game right now. 1004 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 3: I mean, you did continue in the NFL dot Com, 1005 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 3: and I want you to explain this to me, because 1006 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 3: you telling me and telling everybody else what you wrote 1007 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 3: about the truth about dark Prescott's poor play, said, the 1008 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 3: haters are torching him. 1009 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: Certainly the team. 1010 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 3: Is disappointed at three and four, and you know you 1011 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,320 Speaker 3: blame the quarterback. Is it his fault? And why is 1012 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,360 Speaker 3: he having this problem? I would say no offensive line 1013 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 3: help and no running game. That's basically the reason why. 1014 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 3: And I'm just like a schmuck saying this. You're the pro, 1015 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 3: you played the game. I'm just an outside of looking in. 1016 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 3: Am I correct when I say that no offensive line, 1017 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 3: no run game. 1018 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 4: I mean that certainly is a big part of why 1019 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 4: they're struggling, Like they are not getting what they need 1020 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 4: to get done from the people. They don't have the 1021 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 4: affl line, They're just not getting it done. I don't know, 1022 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 4: I was friendly, just not a good team, not well constructed, 1023 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 4: all right. 1024 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 3: But it's not his I mean, I still think on 1025 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 3: the open market, he's a commodity people would want Dak Prescott. 1026 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 2: He's a proven quarterback. 1027 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 3: I mean, certainly, you take a team like the Raiders, 1028 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 3: they could use a quarterback. 1029 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:12,720 Speaker 2: They would take Dak Prescott. Yesterday they would, Yes, they would. 1030 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 4: You're absolutely right, they would take them. They absolutely would 1031 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 4: take him. And it's the thing that Jerry Jones and 1032 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 4: those guys have to kind of figure out the best 1033 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 4: way to utilize them. But yeah, they certainly would take him. 1034 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 4: They would put him in a prominent role and allow 1035 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 4: him to flourish and succeed. I just can't figure out 1036 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 4: why it's not happening for him right now. 1037 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 3: All right, speaking of quarterbacks, let's move into this ballgame. 1038 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 3: You got the charges of the Browns and the Browns. 1039 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe this. 1040 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 3: The Browns beat the Ravens last week twenty seven to 1041 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 3: twenty four. They broke a five game losing streak. And 1042 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 3: let's go a little deeper. Let's move behind the curtain 1043 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: a little bit. Last week, the Cleveland Browns had hot 1044 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,760 Speaker 3: season hides on offense in points with twenty nine totally 1045 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,319 Speaker 3: odds at four to oh one, passing your yards at three, 1046 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 3: twenty one first downs with twenty two all right success rate, 1047 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 3: forty six point five percent pass place more than fifteen 1048 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 3: yards nine. All right, Could it have been the change 1049 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 3: from Deshaun Watson to Jameis Winston a quarterback? 1050 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 2: Could that be the reason? Yes, of course, a. 1051 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 7: Hundred percent, one hundred percent. It absolutely is the reason. 1052 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 4: And look, man, it's hard, it's hard to admit it, 1053 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 4: it's hard to say it, but yeah, it's a huge difference. 1054 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 4: So here's the thing that we've seen. We've seen in 1055 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 4: the last two years Joe Flacco, Jameis Winston, and Deshaun 1056 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 4: Watson play quarterback. We've seen dtr on those guys. But 1057 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,280 Speaker 4: it's interesting that when Joe Flacco and Jameis Winston jumping 1058 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 4: the same offense that is pedestrian under de Shaun Watson, 1059 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 4: they light up scoreboys, They push the ball down the field, 1060 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 4: They find a way to produce these big plays, the 1061 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,720 Speaker 4: plays that don't exist when Deshaun Watson is there. Given 1062 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 4: that two different guys have been able to come in 1063 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 4: there and the trajectory of the offense, you're the Browns, 1064 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,800 Speaker 4: you have to look at your starting quarterback, Deshaun Watson, 1065 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 4: and you have to make some tough decisions about him 1066 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 4: because Jameis Winston and Joe Flacco have proven to you 1067 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 4: it's not a design problem, it's not a scheme problem. 1068 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,919 Speaker 4: It's an execution problem. And the problem primarily comes from 1069 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 4: not having the right personnel in the game to do it, 1070 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 4: and that is DeShawn Watson being in the game. 1071 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 3: Jamis Winston had three touchdowns last week. Cedric Tillman at 1072 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 3: two of Winston's touchdowns. As far as the Charges are concerned, 1073 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 3: you know, we always talk about balance. You got to 1074 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 3: have a balance the run game in the passing game, 1075 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 3: and I think the Charges right now too much of 1076 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 3: the run game. 1077 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 2: With JK. 1078 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 3: Dobbins, I think talent wise, the Charges are a better team. 1079 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 3: But as far as the game being played, I never 1080 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 3: usually say this. The game is being played in Cleveland. 1081 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 3: They found like new life now maybe with Jameis Winston. 1082 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 3: I think the Browns beat him today. I really do. 1083 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 4: I Mean, here's the think about Jamis. He's gonna give 1084 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 4: you something, he's. 1085 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 2: Gonna take something. 1086 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 4: You know, it's a little give, little take, So you 1087 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,320 Speaker 4: have to be willing to live through the roller coaster 1088 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 4: ride that is the Jameis Winston experiment. But they gonna 1089 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,320 Speaker 4: push the ball down the field and Dad is eventually 1090 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 4: going to lead to some points. Close game, But yeah, 1091 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 4: I can lean towards. 1092 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 3: The Browns and the charge is what they need to. 1093 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 3: They got to protect that quarterback, Justin Herbert. I'm looking 1094 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 3: right now. In the last three games, he's been sacked 1095 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 3: three times in the least three games. So Cleveland puts 1096 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 3: a little pressure on there. Offensively, they're really not that strong, 1097 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 3: the Browns. They're not, but defensively they are. They put 1098 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 3: some pressure on Herbert and they get a little luck 1099 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 3: on the offensive side of the football with Jamis being 1100 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 3: not a turnover prone today, I think the Browns win. 1101 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 2: I really do so. 1102 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 3: All right here, here's a game that really and truly, 1103 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 3: if you sent the limo to my house and pay 1104 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 3: me to go to this game, I would not go 1105 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 3: free concessions. I would not go. 1106 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:56,720 Speaker 2: The Patriots at the Titans. Okay. 1107 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 3: The only good thing about this is like the family 1108 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 3: of Mason, Rudolph's chaus Mason's quarterbacking again today. I mean, 1109 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 3: this game should not even be shouldn't even be on 1110 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,799 Speaker 3: the betting line. Really, the Patriots won last week. They 1111 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 3: beat the Jets twenty five twenty two. The last time 1112 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,839 Speaker 3: they played. They're looking for two in a row right now. 1113 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 3: The Titans, they just turned the ball over. Why are 1114 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,279 Speaker 3: we even talking about this game? Tell me about it? Well, 1115 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 3: what do you think? I mean, it's ugly. It's ugly 1116 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 3: all the way around. And the Patriots may even win 1117 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 3: this out of just so much less ugliness. It's unbelievable. 1118 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 3: Lest week, the Titans lost by thirty eight points fifty 1119 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 3: two fourteen. But they get this. They outgained the Lions 1120 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:34,800 Speaker 3: in that game by one hundred and ninety one yards. 1121 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 2: They can't put the ball in the end zone. 1122 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 4: No, they can't. They can't put the end zone. And 1123 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 4: that's I would say, that's disappointing that they can't. They 1124 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 4: can't get it done in their regard. Yeah, look, they 1125 00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 4: just I mean they're bad. Like when I when I 1126 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 4: look at the Titans, they're bad, and they're bad for 1127 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 4: the reasons that we kind of expected. And even though 1128 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,760 Speaker 4: Mason Rudolph gave them a little bit of a bump 1129 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 4: because of his experience and know how he can kind 1130 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:06,840 Speaker 4: of get the ball out to the right people. I 1131 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 4: just don't know if they have enough people, enough playmakers, 1132 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 4: enough stars to make it happen. 1133 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 3: I tell you who's lucky Patriots coach Rod Mayo, because 1134 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 3: two weeks ago he said this team was soft, and they. 1135 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,680 Speaker 2: Won after he said that. If they would have lost. 1136 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 3: Believe me, there's been a lot of people, including myself, 1137 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,360 Speaker 3: may have said behind this microphone, he's right, they are soft. 1138 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 3: So I think they get this second in a row today, 1139 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 3: I really do. I think they win and the game 1140 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 3: is in Tennessee. 1141 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:34,280 Speaker 2: Tennessee's bad. 1142 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 3: I mean there's a big I mean, who's worst, Carolina 1143 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 3: or Tennessee. 1144 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:43,319 Speaker 4: I think Carolina's worse. Tennessee can win because Tennessee is 1145 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 4: more than capable of winning. Their quarterback played for a 1146 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 4: long time with Will Levis. He was undermining and compromising 1147 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,879 Speaker 4: their opportunity to win. But once they get that, once 1148 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 4: they got that fix, it's just a matter of just 1149 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 4: making the plays. And they just have these egregious errors 1150 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 4: that have cost him and with out DeAndre Hopkins, it'd 1151 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,399 Speaker 4: be interesting to see how much the ball he has 1152 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 4: into Calvin Ridley's direction, because you now have a clear 1153 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,240 Speaker 4: pecking ward in terms of who's the number one. 1154 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,200 Speaker 2: We'll just see, okay, And the one thing that I'm 1155 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 2: concerned about I guess I don't really care. 1156 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 3: I'm just saying, if you're better on this game, if 1157 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 3: you're a coaching staff member of the Browns. Miles Garrett 1158 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 3: hasn't had a sack in the last two games. I 1159 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 3: think that's bad. I mean, you paid his got his 1160 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 3: sack quarterbacks, and he has had one in the last 1161 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 3: two games. He may get hungry today. So we'll see 1162 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 3: what the game is in Cleveland. So I think that's 1163 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:29,439 Speaker 3: a big deal. 1164 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:29,880 Speaker 2: I really do. 1165 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,160 Speaker 3: I think it's a big difference. You know, those fans there, 1166 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 3: they're they're loyal. You know, some fans stay away. I 1167 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 3: remember years ago, maybe four or five years ago in Cincinnati, 1168 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 3: they had the worst attendance in the National Football League. 1169 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,439 Speaker 3: People stay away. And I'll tell you the reason why. 1170 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,959 Speaker 3: It's it's not so much because the team is bad. 1171 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 3: I'm going to say this right now. Fans here they're 1172 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 3: very conservative, and we know what that means. It means 1173 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 3: they're cheap. They didn't want to spend their money on 1174 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,400 Speaker 3: a ticket if the team's not winning. Really, I get it. 1175 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 3: I mean, look in New York. I remember that, and 1176 00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 3: it may still very well be a waiting list for 1177 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 3: tickets for the New York football giants. I remember that 1178 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 3: you couldn't get a ticket. And in many seasons, many 1179 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:07,239 Speaker 3: serious seas cities, it's like that. Green Bay it's like that. 1180 00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm sure. Maybe maybe in Vegas it's like that. 1181 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. Cincinnati. 1182 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 3: Unless you win, they ain't gonna go because they're gonna 1183 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 3: They keep their money, not in the bank, they keep 1184 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:17,320 Speaker 3: it under their mattress. 1185 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,239 Speaker 2: That's what they do. They do the conservative They're cheap. 1186 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, cheap, I mean, you know, cheap. 1187 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 2: And that's okay. I mean it's not a bad thing. 1188 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 2: Are frugal that's the better term. 1189 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, Sometimes frugal wins. 1190 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 2: Thank you, buck frugal?

Now, let's talk about the 1220 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:55,399 Speaker 3: Commanders and the Giants. All right, the Commanders, they last 1221 00:55:55,400 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 3: week was unbelievable against the Giants in that game, and 1222 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, and they win against the Chicago Bears. Commanders 1223 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,319 Speaker 3: went on three in the red zone that game. They 1224 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 3: didn't score a touchdown, and its only gold to gold situation. 1225 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 3: Last week against the Bears, they settled for field goals 1226 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 3: all game long and they didn't score a touchdown until 1227 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 3: the final play, which was a Hail Mary, a fifty 1228 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 3: two yacht hail married touchdown that won the game eighteen fifteen. 1229 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,799 Speaker 3: And I do believe there was something like twelve or 1230 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 3: thirteen seconds running around the field before that toss was thrown. 1231 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 3: It was unbelievab how much protection he had. Am I 1232 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 3: correct on that it was Jayden Daniels had about twelve 1233 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 3: thirteen seconds before he threw that ball. 1234 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:38,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, you are correct. 1235 00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 2: It's amazing. 1236 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 4: He had a lot of time. They let him scramble around, 1237 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 4: the d him run around, let him do all the 1238 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 4: stuff that he needed to do. 1239 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 3: And what about that defensive guy in the Chicago Bears. 1240 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,320 Speaker 3: I mean basically he's looking in the looking at the stand. 1241 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 3: What happened? No, no, fine, no nothing that I mean. 1242 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:55,839 Speaker 3: I would have loved to have been a fly on 1243 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 3: the on the wall of the clubhouse and the coach 1244 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,439 Speaker 3: going nuts on him after the game, or at least 1245 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 3: may be during the meetings during the week. I mean, 1246 00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 3: how do you not pay attention? He say, Oh, I forgot. 1247 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 3: There's a game going on. You know, he's rising the fans. 1248 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 3: Next thing you know, they're throwing the ball behind them 1249 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 3: and there's a touchdown. 1250 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 2: They lose the game. 1251 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's problematic. Man, It's such a bad look. It's 1252 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 4: just such a bad look all around. It's one of 1253 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 4: those things that you like, you you hate to see, 1254 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 4: but it's look. It's commonplace when it comes to the 1255 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:28,240 Speaker 4: emotional immaturity that some players have, and as a coach 1256 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 4: you have to always tell them, stay locked in in 1257 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 4: the moment, stay locked in the game's not over. Play 1258 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:35,520 Speaker 4: into the triple zeros on the clock, but sometimes guys 1259 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 4: get away from themselves. And the fact that he had 1260 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 4: his back to the action while the play has been 1261 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 4: that it has started to me shows a lack of focus, 1262 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 4: a lack of maturity. He can own it in the 1263 00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 4: press and all those things, man, but if you're a teammate, 1264 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 4: particularly when you know how competitive is and how hard 1265 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 4: it is to get into the playoffs, that play could 1266 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 4: end up costing the Bears an opportunity to get into 1267 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 4: the postseason. Dance. 1268 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 2: You're right, You're right about that. 1269 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,320 Speaker 3: You know, the jailing Daniels and the Commanders did a 1270 00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 3: magic team of the twenty twenty four They really are. 1271 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 3: And you talk about the Giants right now, they're quarterback 1272 00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones. He scored just one touchdown at Medlife, their 1273 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 3: home field, and four losses this year, and in New 1274 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 3: Jersey in Medlife Stadium, Daniels has completed sixty percent of 1275 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 3: his passes, no touchdowns, one interception, fifteen sacks, and they 1276 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 3: lost to their last game twenty eight three to the Eagles. 1277 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 3: You know, they played each other earlier this year and 1278 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,120 Speaker 3: the week number two, the command has won that game 1279 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 3: twenty one eighteen. But the key to that game for 1280 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 3: the Giants at least was their wide receiver. My league 1281 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 3: neighbors first one hundred yard receiving game. But if remember 1282 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 3: he dropped the pass on the fourth down that could 1283 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 3: have led to a touchdown and the Giants could have 1284 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 3: won that game. You know, there's a thing in the 1285 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 3: back of my mind that tells me the Giants win 1286 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 3: a close one today. I think the Giants could beat 1287 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 3: them at Medlife. 1288 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:53,600 Speaker 2: I think it's I think they do. 1289 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,280 Speaker 3: I mean it's like you know, you go to the 1290 00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 3: casino and you keep on rolling red. Eventually Black's gonna 1291 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 3: come up, right, I mean that what happens? 1292 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 2: I think they do. 1293 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 3: Maybe I just think the Commanders are a better team. 1294 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 3: But what they showed me last week they needed a 1295 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 3: you know, a hail Mary to pull it out at 1296 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 3: the end. They couldn't find the end zone. They couldn't 1297 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 3: get into the red zone a week ago against the Bears. 1298 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 3: Maybe it's easy against the Giants. I don't know, but 1299 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 3: I think the Giants win this one. 1300 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 4: M against the Commander is as hot as Jalen Daniels 1301 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 4: is and as much belief as they had. They didn't 1302 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,240 Speaker 4: have their a game at all versus the Bears. But 1303 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 4: yet he calmly, coolly delivers hail Mary to win the game. 1304 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 4: No way, no how, This is all Commanders. Man. I 1305 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 4: think the command is going to row. They smashed the 1306 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 4: Giants today. 1307 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 3: Really and the Giants lose? Does does Daniel Jones get benched? 1308 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,439 Speaker 4: I don't know, man, I don't know what the alternative is. Okay, 1309 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 4: you Benjamin, you hand the ball to Drew locked and what. 1310 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 2: Tommy DeVito, he's that guy, the Tommy the Vito. 1311 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 4: Again, I mean, I mean Tommy Cutler's but like there's 1312 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 4: a sh you'll fight for him. Like Tommy DeVito is 1313 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 4: not a starting quarterback, long term starting quarterback in this league. 1314 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 4: You're spinning your wheels. If you're Brian day Ballden, you 1315 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 4: make this move, you're basically writing your ticket out of town, 1316 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 4: you know, because you may get an initial pop, but 1317 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 4: the team is going to go back to being what 1318 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 4: they are, just like Carolina when they made the move 1319 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 4: for Andy Dalton. You get a great initial bump, and 1320 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 4: then since then they've been absolutely terrible. They may have 1321 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:26,600 Speaker 4: getten worse on the offense, you know, And so it's 1322 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 4: that thing. You got to be able to evaluate it. 1323 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,440 Speaker 4: And at some point Brian Dabo has to stand on something. 1324 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 4: You can't be wishy, washy and wavering. So if you're 1325 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:38,880 Speaker 4: standing on you know, the quarterback turning it around, cool. 1326 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,720 Speaker 4: If you're out on them, then be all the way out. 1327 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 4: But at this point of the year, this stage of 1328 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 4: his career, you got to make some declarations, enter out 1329 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 4: on the people so then you can build and make 1330 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,120 Speaker 4: a plan to make it work with the people that 1331 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 4: you're saying. 1332 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 3: What you're saying, all right, here's another game that you 1333 01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,600 Speaker 3: can believe me, I'd rather see a rerun movie and 1334 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 3: watch this game. Really, Saints and Panthers, Really, it's a 1335 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 3: lost season, as I mentioned, for both these teams. Five 1336 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 3: losses in a row for the Panthers, six losses in 1337 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 3: a row for the Saints. I mean, I feel bad 1338 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 3: not for the players that getting their big fact checks. 1339 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 3: I feel bad for the paying customers. That's why I 1340 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 3: feel bad for how depressing for a staff for players 1341 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 3: when you know the seasons over. How have you played 1342 01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,440 Speaker 3: on a team like that, when you know, like halfway 1343 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 3: through the season it's over, it's all over, there's no 1344 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,440 Speaker 3: chance for anything, no players. 1345 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 2: How bad is that? 1346 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 4: It's bad? It's bad, man, It's bad when when you 1347 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 4: look you want hope, you want optimism, you want to 1348 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 4: feel like you have a chance to be able to 1349 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:43,800 Speaker 4: get it done. That's hard, hard when your team stinks, 1350 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 4: you know. And for the Saints, it started out so positively, man, offensively, 1351 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 4: they were busting the clock on folks and getting after 1352 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 4: and it was all funning games. 1353 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 3: And yeah there's two games that's got forty seven and 1354 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 3: forty four points. 1355 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,320 Speaker 4: Man, we're talking about how they look revolutionized and thing. 1356 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 4: Clint Kobiak is the toast of the town. You know, 1357 01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:06,680 Speaker 4: we're eating shrimp and to fade off of his left 1358 01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:11,439 Speaker 4: because he's everything. And now yeah they're back, man, they're 1359 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 4: back to being miserable. Derek Carr has been in and 1360 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 4: out the lineup. They put sencor rad Ley in. He 1361 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 4: was the short term savior and hope. Then they benched 1362 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 4: him for Jake Caner Like it's it's bad, just bad man, 1363 01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,480 Speaker 4: just a lot of bad ball right now? 1364 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 3: Is there any any life for the Carolina quarterback Bryce Young? 1365 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:31,439 Speaker 2: I mean, so here's. 1366 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 4: Here's the here's the thing that's troubling about Carolina. Right 1367 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 4: So you're Dave Canalis. You come in year one. Your 1368 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 4: job is to establish the foundation and the culture. You 1369 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,920 Speaker 4: worry less about wins and losses and more about the 1370 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 4: way that it looks. Do we look like we're making 1371 01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 4: progress to do the things that I want to eventually do? 1372 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 4: Are we playing hard? Are we given effort? Are we 1373 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 4: on the details? Are we are we doing those things 1374 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 4: to give ourselves the best chance to win? Right now 1375 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 4: that I can't tell you what their ideay is and 1376 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 4: what they want to be because they've changed so much 1377 01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 4: in year one, back to basics, those things that they're 1378 01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 4: out on the young quarterback after giving up a lot 1379 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 4: to get in on him, I don't know, man like, 1380 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:15,439 Speaker 4: and then when you made the move to Andy Dalton, 1381 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 4: to me, that was the thing that was a shocker. 1382 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 4: Bryce Young wasn't playing great. 1383 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:21,360 Speaker 3: But man, it's like you just said, you just stick 1384 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 3: with the guy, like you talked about day ball in 1385 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 3: New York. 1386 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:24,800 Speaker 2: You know, you gotta stick with your guy. 1387 01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 4: Stick with him, I mean a little bit. And so 1388 01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 4: now people will say that, what that's different than Anthony Richardson. Well, 1389 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:33,040 Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson to me, brought that on himself because he 1390 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:37,240 Speaker 4: didn't display the professionalism that you want from the franchise quarterback. 1391 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 4: Bryce Young might not be good. I don't know, Like 1392 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 4: it's crazy, but where's the future if he's number one overall? 1393 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 4: Where's the future? If you hand the ball to Andy Dalton, 1394 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 4: that's short term stuff. You can go back in the 1395 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 4: draft next year and get another one. At some point, 1396 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 4: you got to have a quarterback that can play. Yeah, 1397 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 4: we'll see i Aye breaks, We'll see Iye cracks. But yeah, 1398 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 4: it's a really interesting situation. 1399 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 3: Yeah bad the Saints win this one. But it's an 1400 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 3: ugly game. I'm not watching it, that's for sure. I'm 1401 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 3: not even gonna watch the highlights. 1402 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:06,520 Speaker 2: How's that. I'll just find out the. 1403 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,920 Speaker 3: Sport that's just bad, all right, Bucky Proks Andy Furman, 1404 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 3: Fox Football Sunday on Fox Busher Now it was his 1405 01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 3: best day as a pro, and we'll tell you all 1406 01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 3: about it next. 1407 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,479 Speaker 2: But first, he's having a pretty good day too. Yes, 1408 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 2: Kevin wayat would you sport here? 1409 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 6: He is pulling the marathon shift here on our time 1410 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 6: a change a Sunday morning. But I got an interesting 1411 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,320 Speaker 6: tidbit from Adam Schefter. He posted on Twitter a few 1412 01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 6: minutes ago regarding Anthony Richardson's benching for Joe Flacco. And 1413 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,640 Speaker 6: the sign isn't good for Richardson to reclaim his starting 1414 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 6: job and actually do much with it. 1415 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 1: Because there have. 1416 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:42,600 Speaker 6: Been twenty five first round quarterbacks since two thousand who 1417 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 6: have been benched by the team that drafted him. Only 1418 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 6: one has since regained the starting job and then started 1419 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 6: a playoff game and made a Pro Bowl. That was 1420 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 6: Mitch Traubinsky. Every other quarterback who has been benched first 1421 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 6: round quarterback who has been benched by the team that 1422 01:04:57,080 --> 01:05:00,959 Speaker 6: drafted him since two thousand has not managed to start 1423 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 6: a playoff game for that team and regain the starting 1424 01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 6: job and start a playoff game for that team again. 1425 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 6: So Anthony Richardson I very well could be on his 1426 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 6: way out of Indianapolis sooner rather than later. But Ian 1427 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 6: Rappaport with several updates over night. Panthers white al Xavier 1428 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 6: Lagette dealing with a tow injury, but is expected to 1429 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 6: play today. Packers running back Josh Jacobs is questionable the 1430 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:28,680 Speaker 6: ankle injury, is slated to play today, and Commander's optimistic 1431 01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 6: running back Brian Robinson will be able to play today. 1432 01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 6: He's dealing with a ham at string injury, but the 1433 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 6: team does want to work him out this morning and 1434 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 6: see how he feels. Titans running back Tony Pollard is 1435 01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:42,520 Speaker 6: considered to be a game time decision. However, the Titans 1436 01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 6: are optimistic that he will be able to play, and 1437 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:48,960 Speaker 6: Jaguars running backs Tank Bigsby and running back Travis Ktn 1438 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 6: both likely to play today. However, Gabe Davis appears to 1439 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 6: be a long shot. Cowboys linebacker Eric Kendricks is questionable, 1440 01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 6: expected to play. Trayvon Diggs is considered a game time decision. 1441 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 6: Brown's corner Denzel Ward has cleared the concussion protocol, so 1442 01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 6: he's expected to play in Ravens corner Marlon Humphrey expected 1443 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:12,720 Speaker 6: to be back on the field after missing last week 1444 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 6: with a knee injury. In the college ranks, a big 1445 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 6: matchup in Happy Valley on Saturday, Top five matchup between 1446 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:22,640 Speaker 6: Ohio State and Penn State. The Buckeys win at twenty 1447 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 6: to thirteen, so they're now tied with Penn State with 1448 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 6: one loss in Big Ten play as well as the 1449 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:30,720 Speaker 6: regular season record. They're both chasing a couple of undefeated 1450 01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:34,200 Speaker 6: Big Ten teams. Oregon rolled against Michigan thirty eight seventeen, 1451 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 6: so the Ducks now nine to oh six to zero 1452 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 6: in the Big Ten. Same for Indiana. They're probably one 1453 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 6: of the best stories of the season. They really demolished 1454 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:43,720 Speaker 6: Michigan State on the road forty seven to ten, so 1455 01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:46,840 Speaker 6: the Hoosiers, much like Oregon, undefeated at nine to oh 1456 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 6: six and oh in the Big Ten. Elsewhere in college football, 1457 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:54,240 Speaker 6: the world's largest outdoor cocktail party the second Ring Georgia Bulldogs. 1458 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 6: They slow start, but they do pull away in the 1459 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 6: second half to win it against Florida thirty four to twenty. 1460 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 6: Number five Miami stays undefeated with a fifty three thirty 1461 01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 6: one win against Duke number seven Tennessee twenty eight to 1462 01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:08,960 Speaker 6: eighteen winners against Kentucky. Number ten. Texas A and M upset, 1463 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 6: and it was a blowout loss on the road to 1464 01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:14,240 Speaker 6: South Carolina forty four to twenty. Number eleven. Iowa State 1465 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 6: also upset, but it was a much closer loss.

And the rookie quarterback for those Broncos 1497 01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:50,760 Speaker 3: bo Nicks had his best days of Pro list week 1498 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,040 Speaker 3: with the winn over the Carolina Panthers. He threw for 1499 01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 3: two eighty seven, three touchdowns, rush for a touchdown, and 1500 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:57,840 Speaker 3: no turnovers. 1501 01:08:57,880 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 2: That's the key right now. 1502 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 3: And the Ravens they allow NFL worst two hundred and 1503 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,479 Speaker 3: ninety one pissing on the game. Nicks obviously is going 1504 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 3: to air it out. And these coordinators they stayed until midnight. 1505 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:11,559 Speaker 2: They sleep on the couch. I'm gonna tell you you 1506 01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 2: don't have to do that. Just throw the. 1507 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:16,960 Speaker 3: Ball because they're having a problem in Baltimore stopping the 1508 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 3: passing game. Air it out and we'll see what happens. 1509 01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,000 Speaker 3: And Derek Henry give him the ball, put it in 1510 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:25,200 Speaker 3: the belly. Really eleven carries last week and that lost 1511 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 3: to the Browns. Come on, you're better than that. How 1512 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 3: do you give the guy Derek Henry eleven carries? Help 1513 01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:34,679 Speaker 3: me out there, Buck? Really eleven carries for Derrick Henry? 1514 01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 4: I mean yeah, But now I think the thing that 1515 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 4: you have to be careful of what Derrick Henry is 1516 01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,640 Speaker 4: you run the risk of maybe wearing him out if 1517 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 4: you continue with the workload that they have form Early 1518 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 4: in the season, he was getting eighteen to twenty touches. 1519 01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 4: That's a lot of carries early for a guy who 1520 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,160 Speaker 4: is you know, he has a lot of mileage on 1521 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:55,800 Speaker 4: the tires and. 1522 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 2: He's not gonna tap his helmet and say he's tired. 1523 01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 4: No he's not. But you want to protect him against himself. 1524 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,400 Speaker 4: You want to also make sure that he's fresh for 1525 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,439 Speaker 4: when you need him the last six games of the season, 1526 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,559 Speaker 4: down the stretch, when you're really making a Super Bowl push. 1527 01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 4: They have other capable backs, other runners. The thing that 1528 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 4: I would look for more so than Derick Unity's touches 1529 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 4: and workload. What's the total workload of the backfield? Are 1530 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,439 Speaker 4: they anywhere from thirty five to forty rushing attempts a game? 1531 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 4: If they are, they dominating the game, controlling it the 1532 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:27,719 Speaker 4: way they want to. If it's lower, is there appeals process? 1533 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 4: How can they kind of get back into good graces? 1534 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,120 Speaker 4: So all of those things matter, But when you're to 1535 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:36,040 Speaker 4: Baltimore Ravens, it's about making sure your offense plays at 1536 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 4: a high level because they're going to have to protect 1537 01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:43,439 Speaker 4: the defense. That means more runs, to slow the game 1538 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 4: down a little more, keep away, not as much pace. 1539 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 4: That could bring up why Derick Unity is gonna have 1540 01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:50,559 Speaker 4: to be a bigger factor down the stretch. 1541 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:53,639 Speaker 2: Ravens when that win though, Probakay, here's your team. The Jags. 1542 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 3: Jags are in Philadelphia right now. Jalen Hurts is playing 1543 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:59,439 Speaker 3: good football. Three straight turnover three games, Eagles have one 1544 01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 3: all three of those games. Egles are ravaging almost twenty 1545 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 3: nine points a game during that time. 1546 01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 2: And here's the question. 1547 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,120 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're going against Philadelphia, how do you 1548 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 3: stu up Jalen Hurts, Sekwon Barkley, AJ Brown, DeVante Smith 1549 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 3: is tough, all right, Travor Lawrence, Trevor Lawrence, help stop 1550 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,599 Speaker 3: turning the ball and do something coming and live up 1551 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,839 Speaker 3: to the building that you had coming into this sleep Trevor, 1552 01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:22,240 Speaker 3: let's get it done. Really And what Christian kurtse got 1553 01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 3: a broken collar bone? The wide receiver that's not gonna help. 1554 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 4: No looks up uphill climbing today for the Jacksonvinthe Jaguars. 1555 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:33,040 Speaker 4: You talked about the phild Alphie us in their offense, 1556 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:37,000 Speaker 4: and when they're healthy they are an unstoppable force offensively. 1557 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 4: Two wide receivers that can excel. They have a tie 1558 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 4: end in Dallas Gobert, big time running back who's coming 1559 01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:46,599 Speaker 4: to his who continues to show people that he might 1560 01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 4: be the best run in the business in Sakwon Barkley. 1561 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 4: And then Jalen Hurts, who's a mix power runner with 1562 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 4: enough arm talent to take advantage of what you give him. 1563 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 4: In the passing game, that offensive line dominate people. Yeah, 1564 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 4: it's tough for the Jaguars. You coming to the game 1565 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:04,639 Speaker 4: potentially without three of your starting white receivers, so now 1566 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,559 Speaker 4: you're down to wide receiver four and five starting. You 1567 01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:11,720 Speaker 4: have your tiight Ends, maybe you get Travis atienback, but 1568 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 4: this is a tough deal to do against a big 1569 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 4: Fangio defense just beginning to play well. This is a 1570 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,880 Speaker 4: tough This is a tough one. They're gonna have to 1571 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 4: get some help from their friends, their competitors, the Eagles, 1572 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:27,200 Speaker 4: to see if they can help them by giving them 1573 01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:30,160 Speaker 4: some extra opportunities turn the ball over, making mistakes, not 1574 01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:32,519 Speaker 4: being focused. That's what it's gonna take for the Jacks 1575 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 4: to be able to come in and swipe one. 1576 01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:36,120 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you some love, though, because the Jacks 1577 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,679 Speaker 3: lost the heartbreaker Lespie against the Packers Authority to twenty 1578 01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 3: seven loss least second loss. So they were they played 1579 01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,599 Speaker 3: toe to toe to the package last week. Whatever that 1580 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 3: means a good storyline today. Obviously Jacks coach Doug Peterson 1581 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 3: was forming Eagles coach. I'm sure there could be some 1582 01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 3: storylines on Matt And here's another deal. 1583 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 2: It's not good news for Jacksonville. 1584 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:55,600 Speaker 4: A J. 1585 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 3: Brown receiver for Philadelphia has had at least eighty five 1586 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:03,160 Speaker 3: yarch receiving in every single game, in every game, every 1587 01:13:03,160 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 3: game this year. 1588 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 2: It's gonna have a big game today. And a J. 1589 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,920 Speaker 3: Smith he had like a forty five yeard touchdown last 1590 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 3: week against the Bengals. So you got some offensive weapons 1591 01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:16,720 Speaker 3: right there. I don't see Jacksonville winning this one. I'm 1592 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:19,120 Speaker 3: sorry to say that to you, but it's gonna be 1593 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,720 Speaker 3: an uphill struggle. It could be ugly, could be a 1594 01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:23,800 Speaker 3: double digit loss today, could very well be. 1595 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, it's gonna be tough. Like I'm saying, 1596 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:30,680 Speaker 4: it's uphill, uphill climbing. But he's in every week. We 1597 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:32,840 Speaker 4: see these upsets, right, we said to Patriots, get off 1598 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 4: the mat and knock off a team. I mean, you 1599 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:38,519 Speaker 4: just see it. You're hoping that maybe you catch him 1600 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 4: a little off and you're able to kind of get 1601 01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 4: some turnovers and some plays to kind of make the 1602 01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:44,000 Speaker 4: game easy for you. 1603 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 3: I say friends are more important than the actual prediction 1604 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:49,120 Speaker 3: of the game. What do I mean by that? I 1605 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,439 Speaker 3: predict the Raiders to beat the Bengals because I love 1606 01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 3: Lincoln Kennedy. He's my buddy. And I'm predicting Jacksonville as 1607 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 3: an upset to be Philadelphia because I love you. 1608 01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,800 Speaker 2: How's that?

I thought all about you. 1794 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:24,639 Speaker 4: I was worried about you last week doing the Hill Mary. 1795 01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:26,800 Speaker 4: I just wondered. I was like, oh my gosh, poor 1796 01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:32,479 Speaker 4: Mike car Like and there no I knew it. There 1797 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:35,240 Speaker 4: were two moments that I really worried about. So before 1798 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 4: we get to the Hill Mary, I was worried about 1799 01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:39,680 Speaker 4: when they had the offensive lineman inn at fullback and 1800 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:43,000 Speaker 4: decided to hand them the ball. Yeah, and he there 1801 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 4: is an old, old refrigerator. Period. Don't really know why 1802 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,800 Speaker 4: we're doing it. It's not like a significant anniversary or 1803 01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:49,639 Speaker 4: anything like that. 1804 01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:51,800 Speaker 1: But we just winning the game. 1805 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I mean, but any of those things. 1806 01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 4: But that was kind of like a let's pull out 1807 01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 4: the victory cigar. Evidently didn't go well, but they bounced 1808 01:23:02,320 --> 01:23:06,559 Speaker 4: back from that and then the Hail Mary. And like, 1809 01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:09,240 Speaker 4: while the Hail Mary's going on in real time, I'm like, 1810 01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:12,720 Speaker 4: oh man, this is bad ball tip catches. But then 1811 01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:15,559 Speaker 4: after I saw the replay, and after I saw Tyreek 1812 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 4: Stevenson basically blowing kisses to the crowd while the play 1813 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:25,559 Speaker 4: is going on, the man that knows Mike Harmon, the 1814 01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:30,840 Speaker 4: soccer officionado, the guy that lands his advice from the sideline, 1815 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 4: whether the coach wants it or not. I can only 1816 01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:36,519 Speaker 4: imagine in that moment what Mike Harmon would be doing 1817 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:41,719 Speaker 4: from the stands if he saw Tyreek Stevenson blowing kisses 1818 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,200 Speaker 4: while the play is going on. I can only imagine 1819 01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,920 Speaker 4: what kind of filth was being spewed from the mouth 1820 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 4: of Michael. 1821 01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:52,760 Speaker 3: He was blowing kisses to Mike Harmon, That's what he 1822 01:23:52,800 --> 01:23:55,080 Speaker 3: was doing. Let me tell you, I just have an idea. 1823 01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 3: I mean, you went, you flew to Washington to see 1824 01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:01,960 Speaker 3: the Bears play, unless you radio promotion, I wouldn't go. 1825 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 1: No, no, no, I didn't. 1826 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:04,800 Speaker 10: I would have gone. I mean it would have been 1827 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 10: it would have been a fun thing. No, I had 1828 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:10,519 Speaker 10: a soccer soccer excursion. My daughter starting to get into 1829 01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:14,719 Speaker 10: that college college recruitment gage. So we had a little 1830 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:18,200 Speaker 10: showcase thing that we got invited to participate out there. 1831 01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 1: So yeah, so we flew out. 1832 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:24,639 Speaker 10: So you know, the Friday, I'm on a plane as 1833 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,960 Speaker 10: the World Series Game one is ending. So that was insanity. Fortunately, 1834 01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:31,680 Speaker 10: the flight had had video and I was able to 1835 01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 10: watch TV all the way through and we landed but 1836 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 10: didn't get to our gate until Freeman at home and 1837 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:39,679 Speaker 10: I'm like, all right, game's over. Everybody loses their minds 1838 01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:42,560 Speaker 10: and then fights to get off the plane. Cool Saturday, 1839 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 10: tool around, everything's great Sunday. They've got the the ID 1840 01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 10: camp all of that fun stuff. And then we hustle 1841 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:53,120 Speaker 10: back to Logan. We're flying back out and we have 1842 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:55,559 Speaker 10: a layover in Philly, so we sit down for a 1843 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 10: bite to eat. We're catching up the Bears games on. 1844 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:00,960 Speaker 10: They're getting the second half, it's just getting ready to 1845 01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:04,439 Speaker 10: be to start. I'm tracking it right as I can, 1846 01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 10: and it's like, wow, they're terrible, awful first half. I mean, 1847 01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:13,280 Speaker 10: really just bad football. Andy, you're previewing games for today 1848 01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:16,519 Speaker 10: that might be absolute direk you know where you might 1849 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,800 Speaker 10: have to rake some leaves right the winds are out. 1850 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:21,479 Speaker 10: I saw the autumn colors out while I was out 1851 01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:25,280 Speaker 10: east and saw the guys filling garbage can after garbage 1852 01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 10: can with leaves. Maybe you can do some of that 1853 01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:30,360 Speaker 10: instead of watching a few of these on here put 1854 01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:33,719 Speaker 10: but no, so I'm watching, you know, I'm paying attention 1855 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:37,719 Speaker 10: to the first half, and it looks terrible second half 1856 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:41,439 Speaker 10: doesn't get any better both sides mean Daniel's question of 1857 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:44,120 Speaker 10: whether he was gonna play or not. Fine, But then 1858 01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:46,679 Speaker 10: you get into the sequence as you laid it out, Bucky, 1859 01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:50,920 Speaker 10: as soon as Kramer comes in, you're scratching your head 1860 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:55,920 Speaker 10: like you've done nothing this whole game. Offensively, defensively, you've 1861 01:25:55,960 --> 01:26:00,000 Speaker 10: done fine, right cold the field goals, great scoring defense, 1862 01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:01,720 Speaker 10: which for the Bears, as we'll talk about as we 1863 01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:04,599 Speaker 10: get into today's game in earnest here in a minute 1864 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:07,280 Speaker 10: one at the top end the game. Fine, you get 1865 01:26:07,280 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 10: the ball back and eventually you're able to cover up 1866 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,120 Speaker 10: that error. And if you want to make the argument, 1867 01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:13,760 Speaker 10: well it worked out because you took a couple of 1868 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:15,600 Speaker 10: minutes off the clock. Now you have the lead. Ha 1869 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 10: ha ha, great you could do that in the moment. 1870 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,400 Speaker 10: I'm still mad about the play before the hail Mary 1871 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:26,400 Speaker 10: with the guy who's visibly uncomfortable stretching trying to throw 1872 01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 10: the ball, and you don't play defense. Caleb Williams was 1873 01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:31,439 Speaker 10: about to have a heart attack on the sideline on 1874 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 10: that play. DJ Moore is in the tent. We'll get 1875 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 10: to all of those guys in a minute, because tell 1876 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 10: me of a locker room that's more malcontended right now 1877 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:41,920 Speaker 10: than what you have in Chicago, because every guy that 1878 01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:45,400 Speaker 10: could get behind the wheels of the bus to practice 1879 01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 10: their parallel parking or you know, to run things over 1880 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:51,680 Speaker 10: to flatten them. The Bears players lined up like a 1881 01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:54,960 Speaker 10: conga line to do that to their coaching staff this week, 1882 01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 10: after the third down play and after the Hail Mary disaster, 1883 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:02,640 Speaker 10: more was in the injury tent, didn't see what was 1884 01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:03,160 Speaker 10: going on. 1885 01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:04,799 Speaker 1: He couldn't wait to get. 1886 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,120 Speaker 10: In front of a microphone to talk about what was 1887 01:27:07,160 --> 01:27:10,040 Speaker 10: going on. So, yeah, all of that to say, I'm 1888 01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:15,080 Speaker 10: in a Philadelphia airport spot eating with my daughter and 1889 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:19,240 Speaker 10: she just sees, well that side of me which comes 1890 01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:23,120 Speaker 10: out it went and when I'm truly invested, and I think, 1891 01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:25,320 Speaker 10: for the most part, and I've lamented this with you 1892 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:27,080 Speaker 10: guys in the past, I don't have that eight year 1893 01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:29,120 Speaker 10: old kid in me with most of the pro teams 1894 01:27:29,479 --> 01:27:30,960 Speaker 10: that slingers with you. 1895 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,599 Speaker 1: Like it's a quick burn thirty seconds. 1896 01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 10: That loss stayed with me the entire week, especially once 1897 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 10: the Stevenson video started popping around. But the third down 1898 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:44,000 Speaker 10: play and have Eberflus all week on, well, that didn't matter. 1899 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:45,599 Speaker 1: It's like the guy didn't get it to. 1900 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:47,439 Speaker 10: The end zone with the heavy made on the hail 1901 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,000 Speaker 10: Mary for crying out loud. You're telling me that fifteen 1902 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:53,639 Speaker 10: yards didn't matter. But he I'm still lathered up the weekly. 1903 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:55,599 Speaker 2: But the big question is this, did your daughter win? 1904 01:27:55,760 --> 01:27:58,400 Speaker 3: See that that's the big question? Well, that's more important 1905 01:27:58,400 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 3: than the Chicago freaking Bears. 1906 01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:02,760 Speaker 10: Well they I think she won out because it was 1907 01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:04,680 Speaker 10: a it was a good weekend. It was one of 1908 01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:07,759 Speaker 10: those uh ID camps, right.

But when they won, no big deal. 1953 01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:53,840 Speaker 3: So it's a different animal. You lose that incentive to 1954 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:56,200 Speaker 3: root for the team. It's a whole different animal, it 1955 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:56,760 Speaker 3: really is. 1956 01:29:58,880 --> 01:29:59,920 Speaker 1: What do you think about that, Buck? 1957 01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 10: I mean, I still root for them, I just it 1958 01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:05,400 Speaker 10: just doesn't burn with me the same way, right because 1959 01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 10: I think in our business, one of the most disingenuous 1960 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:11,479 Speaker 10: things that host say at any level is that I 1961 01:30:11,479 --> 01:30:14,080 Speaker 10: don't root for for this. I root for a story 1962 01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:17,800 Speaker 10: that we all want stories, no question. But you all, 1963 01:30:17,840 --> 01:30:21,280 Speaker 10: you all still have players, coaches, teams that you grew 1964 01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:23,439 Speaker 10: up with that are still there. Like I say, I mean, 1965 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 10: it may be a bit latent. You may not be 1966 01:30:25,280 --> 01:30:27,920 Speaker 10: running up and down crying.

That's that's 1981 01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:56,639 Speaker 2: why I was okay even if. 1982 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:58,760 Speaker 1: You were the one that provoked it.

A little bit. 1998 01:31:37,160 --> 01:31:39,960 Speaker 4: When I made the transition into the media world, I 1999 01:31:39,960 --> 01:31:43,280 Speaker 4: did become that guy like, you know what, a little 2000 01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:45,280 Speaker 4: chaos wouldn't be bad. 2001 01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:49,439 Speaker 1: I say it all the time radio, like a little chaos. 2002 01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,439 Speaker 10: Between the white lines as long as nobody's going out 2003 01:31:51,479 --> 01:31:53,160 Speaker 10: of bounds.

Technically you can't. I mean, you're still 2012 01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:21,720 Speaker 4: supposed to be kind of unbiased when it comes to it, 2013 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:23,599 Speaker 4: but you're happy, So I can understand how you can 2014 01:32:23,640 --> 01:32:26,760 Speaker 4: have a little distance between where the pain isn't as 2015 01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,639 Speaker 4: much as it would be if you were the Bears 2016 01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:33,280 Speaker 4: fan that was drowning your sorrows in a Bruski after 2017 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:35,920 Speaker 4: the loss.

I still wonder when 2083 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:42,760 Speaker 10: I was supposed to have gotten my notice that I 2084 01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:46,240 Speaker 10: was supposed to in addition to supplying gold for the 2085 01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:48,559 Speaker 10: next fifty years of my life, I was supposed to 2086 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:52,240 Speaker 10: be stashing fireworks guys, because it seemed like everybody had 2087 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:56,439 Speaker 10: a giant bucket under their sink or something to fire 2088 01:35:56,479 --> 01:35:58,919 Speaker 10: off as soon as the Dodgers won the World Series. 2089 01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:01,719 Speaker 10: This week, We'll see what kind of victories we get 2090 01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:06,160 Speaker 10: as the week runs forward. But one thing just referenced 2091 01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:12,000 Speaker 10: obliquely is the number of incidents we've had with players, executives, 2092 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:15,760 Speaker 10: et cetera, and media these last few days. Joel Embiid 2093 01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:20,240 Speaker 10: and a reporter in Philadelphia who called out his work 2094 01:36:20,240 --> 01:36:26,680 Speaker 10: ethic and dedication and invoked memories and references to deceased 2095 01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:31,559 Speaker 10: relatives of Embiid while while doing so so took the 2096 01:36:31,600 --> 01:36:33,519 Speaker 10: line in the sand and erased it. 2097 01:36:34,200 --> 01:36:34,960 Speaker 1: We saw. 2098 01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:39,519 Speaker 10: Dravon Diggs of the Cowboys get into it a little 2099 01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,160 Speaker 10: bit with a media member. They made up over over 2100 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:46,280 Speaker 10: canned goods, so whatever. But we're seeing more and more 2101 01:36:47,080 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 10: back and forth. Jerry Jones remember a couple of weeks ago, 2102 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,000 Speaker 10: not that he was gonna he was just threatened, I think, 2103 01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:55,200 Speaker 10: to take his radio show somewhere else to not deal 2104 01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:57,640 Speaker 10: with those guys. I don't think he was saying he 2105 01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:00,680 Speaker 10: was Montgomery burnsing it and buying the station and then 2106 01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:04,640 Speaker 10: firing them all. But we're at this weird nexus in 2107 01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:09,080 Speaker 10: our communication world as reporters, and this is where we have, 2108 01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:13,479 Speaker 10: as you alluded to before, Bucky, where the line of 2109 01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:16,800 Speaker 10: what really is journalism? I think that got a race 2110 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:21,240 Speaker 10: right on radio. We're opinionists, is you know? And whether 2111 01:37:21,280 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 10: you went to journalism school or not, you at least 2112 01:37:24,320 --> 01:37:27,920 Speaker 10: downgraded to a lowercase J in most forms, if not 2113 01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:31,960 Speaker 10: moving away from your base at all. 2114 01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:32,360 Speaker 1: There. 2115 01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:35,080 Speaker 10: But you know, Andy, I'll start with you. You talked 2116 01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:37,240 Speaker 10: about being in the locker room and facing the fire 2117 01:37:37,560 --> 01:37:42,000 Speaker 10: from players, and now anybody that says they don't read it, well, 2118 01:37:42,040 --> 01:37:45,160 Speaker 10: they have no excuse and nobody believes them. 2119 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:47,479 Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this, I mean it took me. The 2120 01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:48,400 Speaker 2: term journalism. 2121 01:37:48,439 --> 01:37:50,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I just I think you're gonna toss out 2122 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:52,800 Speaker 3: the window because most people don't even get their news 2123 01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:56,320 Speaker 3: from what the true journalistic sources. They get their news 2124 01:37:56,320 --> 01:37:59,000 Speaker 3: from TikTok. I mean, think about that social media, that's 2125 01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:02,760 Speaker 3: what people getting their news. Assume that that is journalism 2126 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 3: at its best, and it's not. You know, we're here 2127 01:38:05,240 --> 01:38:07,160 Speaker 3: to entertain an inform That's what we. 2128 01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:07,720 Speaker 2: Do, all right. 2129 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 3: And if it means that taking a poke at someone 2130 01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:12,439 Speaker 3: like you know, an athlete or a coach, or it 2131 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:15,559 Speaker 3: may be you know, a harmless pope, but you know, 2132 01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:18,760 Speaker 3: maybe it hurts them to some extent. So sorry, We're 2133 01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:21,160 Speaker 3: here to entertain an inform. If you turn on any 2134 01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:23,599 Speaker 3: of the late night TV shows, what do they do? 2135 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:24,760 Speaker 2: They rip on. 2136 01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:28,200 Speaker 3: Political figures every single night. The president. You know, he's 2137 01:38:28,240 --> 01:38:32,559 Speaker 3: their main target. Really, they're probably hoping that Donald Trump 2138 01:38:32,640 --> 01:38:36,160 Speaker 3: wins the election because he's a bigger target than Kamala Really, 2139 01:38:36,160 --> 01:38:40,320 Speaker 3: when you think about it, that's their source of entertainment. So, 2140 01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:43,160 Speaker 3: you know, I think everything that has been in the 2141 01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:45,840 Speaker 3: past has been thrown out the window. For example, you 2142 01:38:45,880 --> 01:38:48,000 Speaker 3: know you talk about with one of the two largest 2143 01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:50,920 Speaker 3: newspapers in the country, the La Times in the Washington Post, 2144 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,200 Speaker 3: they won't even endorse a freaking candidate. Think about that. 2145 01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:58,280 Speaker 3: That's journalism. Come on, really, So everything, it's a wide 2146 01:38:58,280 --> 01:39:01,120 Speaker 3: open field right now, is completely different and you know it. 2147 01:39:02,720 --> 01:39:05,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I think it's all changed. Like part of 2148 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:08,160 Speaker 4: the appeal and making it move over to for me 2149 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 4: was the respect that I always had for generalists and 2150 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:14,080 Speaker 4: how hard it was to do the job that you know, 2151 01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:17,800 Speaker 4: they did. Like obviously, there's been a seismic shift in 2152 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:20,280 Speaker 4: the industry. I started doing media stuff in two thousand 2153 01:39:20,280 --> 01:39:23,599 Speaker 4: and seven, and it's changed, like from the blogger sphere 2154 01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:28,719 Speaker 4: to Twitter to everyone basically carrying themselves as a journalist 2155 01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:31,720 Speaker 4: by having an iPhone or phone to document things that 2156 01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:34,840 Speaker 4: are going on and to add commentary to that. It 2157 01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:37,080 Speaker 4: has changed everything because One of the things that has 2158 01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:40,679 Speaker 4: been lost has been like the journalistic standards and ethics 2159 01:39:40,680 --> 01:39:43,800 Speaker 4: that are taught in school, the right and wrongs of 2160 01:39:43,920 --> 01:39:46,680 Speaker 4: how to do things, how to conduct business, what you 2161 01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:49,479 Speaker 4: can and what you can't do, or what you should 2162 01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:52,120 Speaker 4: or what you shouldn't do. All of that has been blurred. 2163 01:39:52,200 --> 01:39:57,600 Speaker 4: And because I would say, the media has been politicized, 2164 01:39:58,120 --> 01:40:00,960 Speaker 4: and because it's been thrown out there, there is this 2165 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:06,640 Speaker 4: general disdain for media members mainstream media as they call it, 2166 01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:09,600 Speaker 4: and I think it's just made it very, very dangerous. 2167 01:40:09,760 --> 01:40:13,920 Speaker 4: I think it's kind of made it hard for everybody 2168 01:40:13,960 --> 01:40:15,559 Speaker 4: to do the jarb I would say, and I don't 2169 01:40:15,560 --> 01:40:19,719 Speaker 4: want to disparage some journalists, but like real journalists doing 2170 01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:24,599 Speaker 4: journalistic work and the objects of their work, whether it's players, 2171 01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 4: celebrities or whatever. I think it's made it very difficult 2172 01:40:28,280 --> 01:40:31,920 Speaker 4: because everything is gray matter, and things that went from 2173 01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:37,599 Speaker 4: being reporting have now become opinions opinion pieces, and there's 2174 01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:41,120 Speaker 4: no distinction between those things. Because you used to have 2175 01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:44,640 Speaker 4: a columnist for your local paper and then reporters for 2176 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:47,240 Speaker 4: the paper. Well all that everyone weighs in with their opinions, 2177 01:40:47,280 --> 01:40:50,360 Speaker 4: and so it's just a bunch of muck and I 2178 01:40:50,360 --> 01:40:55,679 Speaker 4: would say Debate TV has further clouded the discussion because 2179 01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,559 Speaker 4: the rise of skip baylists and steven A and that 2180 01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:04,680 Speaker 4: type of format also changed it, and so there's so 2181 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,880 Speaker 4: many different things that the cloud is. So we went 2182 01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:11,240 Speaker 4: from the sports reporters to talking he yacking at each other, 2183 01:41:11,360 --> 01:41:14,280 Speaker 4: debating everything. It's changed everything. So it's made it a 2184 01:41:14,360 --> 01:41:18,880 Speaker 4: very very difficult landscape to navigate. I won't even say 2185 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:21,840 Speaker 4: as the victim, but as the object or the subject 2186 01:41:21,920 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 4: and the person that is supposedly reporting on the subject. 2187 01:41:24,960 --> 01:41:27,840 Speaker 10: He's Bucky Brooks, that's Andy Furban, I'm Mike Carmen. It's 2188 01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:30,280 Speaker 10: Fox Football Sunday on Fox Sports. 2189 01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:33,360 Speaker 1: RADYW. We got a few games to get to, including. 2190 01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:36,320 Speaker 10: Well, my squad will kick us off in a minute, 2191 01:41:36,320 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 10: But first we got ninety seconds of Kevin Wyre. The 2192 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:41,439 Speaker 10: updates of what's going on in our sporting universe. 2193 01:41:41,520 --> 01:41:43,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, we got some injury updates and actually Adam Schefter 2194 01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:47,000 Speaker 6: with an update regarding Cam Robinson, the new tackle that 2195 01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:50,120 Speaker 6: the Vikings acquired from the Jaguars, and Schefter saying that 2196 01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:53,680 Speaker 6: there is an expectation that he will be able to 2197 01:41:53,800 --> 01:41:57,280 Speaker 6: play today or tonight for the Vikings against the Colts. 2198 01:41:57,280 --> 01:42:00,120 Speaker 6: The Spy only practicing for the first time on Thursday, 2199 01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:02,760 Speaker 6: so Minnesota looked like they're gonna get a boost to 2200 01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:07,559 Speaker 6: their offensive line for tonight's matchup. Ian Rappaport with several 2201 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:12,840 Speaker 6: injury updates overnight. Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette dealing with 2202 01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:15,799 Speaker 6: a tow injury. Listen is questionable, expected to play today. 2203 01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:18,679 Speaker 6: Packer's running back Josh Jacobs is questionable with an ankle 2204 01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:23,120 Speaker 6: injury and is also expected to play today. The Commander's 2205 01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:26,880 Speaker 6: optimistic that running back Brian Robinson will be able to play. 2206 01:42:26,920 --> 01:42:28,280 Speaker 1: He's dealing with a hamstring injury. 2207 01:42:28,280 --> 01:42:30,680 Speaker 6: The team does want to see how he feels in 2208 01:42:30,760 --> 01:42:33,479 Speaker 6: a pregame workouts, but they do think that he will 2209 01:42:33,560 --> 01:42:36,320 Speaker 6: be able to go. Titan's running back Tony Paular did 2210 01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:39,640 Speaker 6: not practice this week. He is considered a game time decision, 2211 01:42:40,120 --> 01:42:43,479 Speaker 6: but there is optimism within the Tennessee Titans organization that 2212 01:42:43,520 --> 01:42:47,959 Speaker 6: he will suit up today. Jaguars running backs Tank Bigsby 2213 01:42:48,080 --> 01:42:52,120 Speaker 6: and running back Travis Etn both likely to play today 2214 01:42:52,280 --> 01:42:56,719 Speaker 6: barring a setback. Brian Thomas is also expected to play, 2215 01:42:56,800 --> 01:43:00,959 Speaker 6: but Gabe Davis appears to be a long shot. Cowboys 2216 01:43:00,960 --> 01:43:04,479 Speaker 6: linebacker Eric Kendricks is questionable. He is expected to play. 2217 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:07,559 Speaker 6: Trayvon Diggs did not practice this week but is considered 2218 01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:13,880 Speaker 6: a game time decision. Brown's corner Denzel Ward has clear 2219 01:43:13,920 --> 01:43:16,679 Speaker 6: concussion protocol, so they are expecting him to be out there. 2220 01:43:16,680 --> 01:43:20,439 Speaker 6: In Raven's corner, Marlin Humphrey, after missing a last week's game, 2221 01:43:20,640 --> 01:43:24,639 Speaker 6: is expected to be back today for the Baltimore Ravens. 2222 01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:26,479 Speaker 1: Inspect you guys, thanks so much, Kevin. 2223 01:43:26,600 --> 01:43:28,960 Speaker 10: All right, as we get ready for a full Week 2224 01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:32,400 Speaker 10: nine one game in the books, Jets victorious. Only two 2225 01:43:32,479 --> 01:43:36,360 Speaker 10: teams on by this week. Again the insanity of how 2226 01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:40,040 Speaker 10: by weeks are distributed, but the Steelers and forty nine 2227 01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:42,120 Speaker 10: Ers take the week off for you. All right, guys, 2228 01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:46,439 Speaker 10: time to stretch, because let's get it on. Bears A Cardinals, Yeah, 2229 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 10: just right off the jump. Why don't we get to it? 2230 01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:52,360 Speaker 10: It is a forty five total, the Cardinals a two 2231 01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:58,120 Speaker 10: point favorite. The aforementioned Stevenson, because of disciplinary issues, will 2232 01:43:58,120 --> 01:44:01,200 Speaker 10: not start the game. Bears also in the secondary down 2233 01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:05,000 Speaker 10: with Risker still in concussion protocol. That's three games, guys, 2234 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:08,040 Speaker 10: and Kyler Gordon popped up with a hamstring injury. Montese 2235 01:44:08,040 --> 01:44:10,720 Speaker 10: sweat also questionable in this one, bears plus five and 2236 01:44:10,760 --> 01:44:14,240 Speaker 10: turnover differential on the year that's tied for sixth in 2237 01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:16,920 Speaker 10: the league. Matty for eber Flus in his career three 2238 01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 10: and seventeen on the road. Other than that, how's everything 2239 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:23,800 Speaker 10: going easy? Schedule ish early on? You know, you're talking 2240 01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:26,120 Speaker 10: about a number of players, as we discussed early in 2241 01:44:26,160 --> 01:44:29,320 Speaker 10: the hour, calling out the coaching staff. Now the question 2242 01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:32,360 Speaker 10: of how they respond battle test at Arizona squad, Kyler 2243 01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:35,800 Speaker 10: Murray averaging two hundred and four passing yard, sixty seven 2244 01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:38,800 Speaker 10: percent completion rate, and that's even with only completing half 2245 01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:42,559 Speaker 10: of his passes to Marvin Harrison Junior. I'll expect the 2246 01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:46,320 Speaker 10: Arizona Cardinals to win this game, and to do so convincingly. 2247 01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 1: What say you, Bucky, Ooh, I'm. 2248 01:44:48,840 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 4: Gonna go at Arizona. I like to the Cardinals are playing, 2249 01:44:50,880 --> 01:44:56,080 Speaker 4: Marvin Harrison Junior being able to be activated within this offense, 2250 01:44:56,160 --> 01:44:59,000 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray playing at a level that you like. They 2251 01:44:59,120 --> 01:45:00,920 Speaker 4: just kind of a scrappy squad, Like you want to 2252 01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:04,080 Speaker 4: dismiss him and not take them seriously, but they deserve 2253 01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:06,639 Speaker 4: your full attention. I'm gonna give them their full attention 2254 01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,439 Speaker 4: by saying they are the winner today. 2255 01:45:09,439 --> 01:45:12,880 Speaker 3: It amazes me to look at quarterbacks and see how 2256 01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:15,160 Speaker 3: good they become when they get a good offensive line. 2257 01:45:15,280 --> 01:45:16,599 Speaker 3: That's basically what it's all about. 2258 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:16,840 Speaker 2: Really. 2259 01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:20,360 Speaker 3: You look at Dak Prescott and Dallas struggling offensive line stinks. 2260 01:45:20,600 --> 01:45:22,960 Speaker 3: Kylin Murray right now has been protected for three weeks 2261 01:45:23,000 --> 01:45:25,880 Speaker 3: in a row now, including last week, they have not 2262 01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:26,479 Speaker 3: sacked them. 2263 01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:27,280 Speaker 2: He have not sacked that. 2264 01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:29,280 Speaker 3: I want what he did last week They beat Miami 2265 01:45:29,320 --> 01:45:31,559 Speaker 3: twenty eight twenty seven, and he threw for three hundred 2266 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:35,400 Speaker 3: and seven yards and two touchdowns. So obviously Arizona's offense 2267 01:45:35,479 --> 01:45:37,880 Speaker 3: is rolling right now because he's got protection. And I 2268 01:45:37,880 --> 01:45:42,439 Speaker 3: think right now Arizona obviously defensively, they ranked in the 2269 01:45:42,479 --> 01:45:44,800 Speaker 3: bottom part of the league against the run. So if 2270 01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:46,519 Speaker 3: the Bess could run against them, which I don't think 2271 01:45:46,520 --> 01:45:48,320 Speaker 3: they can, I think Arizona wins. 2272 01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:50,040 Speaker 2: I think it'll be closed, but I think Arizona wins. 2273 01:45:50,120 --> 01:45:53,080 Speaker 10: Arizona twenty fourth, giving up twenty five points six points 2274 01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:56,960 Speaker 10: per game. Jondre Swift's been fantastic, Hey, Rashawn Johnson, He's 2275 01:45:57,000 --> 01:45:58,720 Speaker 10: perfect at goal line situations. 2276 01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:01,320 Speaker 1: Bucky for four are how about that. 2277 01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:07,040 Speaker 10: I'm att now see the gentle ribbing that that Andy 2278 01:46:07,040 --> 01:46:12,160 Speaker 10: Furman referred to before Let's go into another one. Here 2279 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:14,519 Speaker 10: might be one of your games of the day, forty 2280 01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:17,280 Speaker 10: seven and a half your total, you've got rain and 2281 01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:20,400 Speaker 10: the last I had seen wins out of the Southeast 2282 01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:24,240 Speaker 10: at sixteen miles per hour. Jared goffin company taking the 2283 01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:27,519 Speaker 10: show on the road. Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs both 2284 01:46:27,560 --> 01:46:30,720 Speaker 10: expected to go Green Bay twelfth in the league, giving 2285 01:46:30,800 --> 01:46:33,760 Speaker 10: up twenty one point three points per game. We look 2286 01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:37,880 Speaker 10: at Jordan Love and the love fest that there's been 2287 01:46:37,920 --> 01:46:39,519 Speaker 10: with him, but he's a guy that puts the ball 2288 01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:42,160 Speaker 10: in harm's way a bit. And there's one of your 2289 01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 10: your giant hangar star in this one, because I don't 2290 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,000 Speaker 10: think that gets brought up nearly as much as some 2291 01:46:47,080 --> 01:46:50,240 Speaker 10: other quarterbacks. I'll let you all fight over you know 2292 01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:53,240 Speaker 10: who I'm referring to there. But they've got a week 2293 01:46:53,320 --> 01:46:56,439 Speaker 10: ten by So if Jordan Love's not right, this goes 2294 01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:58,640 Speaker 10: back to the early part of the season going do 2295 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:00,800 Speaker 10: we really need to do this, especially the way Malik 2296 01:47:00,880 --> 01:47:02,840 Speaker 10: Willis has been playing on the other. 2297 01:47:02,720 --> 01:47:03,639 Speaker 1: Side for Detroit. 2298 01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:07,160 Speaker 10: Goff multiple touchdown passes five straight games and he's making 2299 01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:10,959 Speaker 10: it look easy, completing three quarters of his pass attempts. 2300 01:47:11,200 --> 01:47:13,920 Speaker 10: You got six Lions that scored last week, and Ben 2301 01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,679 Speaker 10: Johnson to add insult to injury over the Hail Mary. 2302 01:47:16,920 --> 01:47:18,880 Speaker 10: All of a sudden, there was a oh, he wanted 2303 01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 10: to go coach the Bears this offseason. What do you 2304 01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:22,719 Speaker 10: think that did for me? Andy Furman? 2305 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:23,800 Speaker 2: Unbelievable? 2306 01:47:23,840 --> 01:47:26,519 Speaker 3: Really, you know, you talk about the injury fact that 2307 01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:28,200 Speaker 3: mean Jordan Love's gonna play, but he still has that 2308 01:47:28,200 --> 01:47:31,040 Speaker 3: groin injury, and running back Josh Jacob he's got an 2309 01:47:31,080 --> 01:47:31,680 Speaker 3: injury as well. 2310 01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:32,320 Speaker 8: But here's the deal. 2311 01:47:32,560 --> 01:47:34,719 Speaker 3: Here's the stat I think of all stats, the Lions 2312 01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:37,680 Speaker 3: scored fifty two points last week in their win, but 2313 01:47:37,720 --> 01:47:40,600 Speaker 3: they only had sixty one net passing you as That's unbelievable. 2314 01:47:40,720 --> 01:47:43,320 Speaker 3: I mean, and you talk about a team taking the 2315 01:47:43,360 --> 01:47:46,360 Speaker 3: image of their coach, Dan Campbell. He's the kind of 2316 01:47:46,360 --> 01:47:48,439 Speaker 3: guy I would think on Bucky May could agree with me. 2317 01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:51,200 Speaker 3: He would have a player run through a guest chamber. 2318 01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:53,479 Speaker 3: I mean, really, he's that kind of guy. He gets 2319 01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:56,439 Speaker 3: these guys crazy. I watched this guy on Hard Knocks 2320 01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:58,280 Speaker 3: and you have to fall in love with this guy, 2321 01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:00,360 Speaker 3: even if you don't root for the Detroit Lions. You 2322 01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:03,160 Speaker 3: got a roof with Dan Campbell. He's all in and 2323 01:48:03,200 --> 01:48:06,080 Speaker 3: the players are all in, and this team is unbelievable. 2324 01:48:06,080 --> 01:48:08,879 Speaker 3: I mean unstoppable. They really are. They beat the Packers, 2325 01:48:08,880 --> 01:48:11,160 Speaker 3: they beat the Package even with a healthy Jordan Love, 2326 01:48:11,360 --> 01:48:13,080 Speaker 3: and they're gonna win today and they're gonna beat them. 2327 01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:15,680 Speaker 3: I don't care if it's outdoors, indoors, rain, snow, I 2328 01:48:15,720 --> 01:48:16,640 Speaker 3: don't care what it is. 2329 01:48:16,840 --> 01:48:17,439 Speaker 2: Lions win. 2330 01:48:19,600 --> 01:48:22,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. Man, It's tough because I love the Lions. I 2331 01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:25,360 Speaker 4: love all the things that they do. But there's something 2332 01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:27,280 Speaker 4: about me that is compelling me to go with the 2333 01:48:27,280 --> 01:48:29,920 Speaker 4: Green Bay Packers in this one. I don't know if 2334 01:48:29,920 --> 01:48:32,240 Speaker 4: because I saw on firsthand a week ago and just 2335 01:48:32,280 --> 01:48:34,800 Speaker 4: the adjustment they made on the fly with Malik Willis. 2336 01:48:34,960 --> 01:48:37,160 Speaker 4: I don't know if it's because they can always flip 2337 01:48:37,200 --> 01:48:39,840 Speaker 4: into a smash mall team with Josh Jacobs, but it's 2338 01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:42,800 Speaker 4: something that's just telling me, go, pack go. And it 2339 01:48:42,880 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 4: goes against everything that I believe in because I love 2340 01:48:45,200 --> 01:48:47,880 Speaker 4: the Lions toughness and grit, but at some point they 2341 01:48:47,880 --> 01:48:50,120 Speaker 4: can't just lose one game on the season, so I'm 2342 01:48:50,160 --> 01:48:51,360 Speaker 4: going to Packers in this one is. 2343 01:48:51,360 --> 01:48:53,160 Speaker 1: It because you saw the back of a jersey that 2344 01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:55,280 Speaker 1: said Brooks on it. That was. 2345 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:02,040 Speaker 4: And that's why if I saw that jersey with Brooks 2346 01:49:02,040 --> 01:49:04,960 Speaker 4: on it, it would be eighty seven signifying Robert Brooks, 2347 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:06,080 Speaker 4: not Bucky Brooks. 2348 01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 10: I would have to say, No, Brooks grossly underrated in 2349 01:49:09,560 --> 01:49:10,559 Speaker 10: the handles of history. 2350 01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:13,719 Speaker 1: Let me tell you. He and Sterling sharp. 2351 01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:16,160 Speaker 10: I mean, his brother gets all the run, but Sterling 2352 01:49:16,240 --> 01:49:18,080 Speaker 10: was a Hall of Famer if not for the deck injury. 2353 01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:22,120 Speaker 10: But yeah, I ended up going green Bay and the 2354 01:49:22,160 --> 01:49:24,679 Speaker 10: picks that we made on the show, Smith and I 2355 01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:27,960 Speaker 10: as well, owing to a bit of the weather coming in. 2356 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:31,920 Speaker 10: And green Bay is no slouch. They've found ways to 2357 01:49:31,960 --> 01:49:37,400 Speaker 10: win games with Jacobs available. They are much different offense, young, 2358 01:49:37,479 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 10: receiving core, all of that. Tucker Craft's been fantastic, leading 2359 01:49:40,439 --> 01:49:42,920 Speaker 10: them with five touchdowns. I made the pick and I 2360 01:49:42,960 --> 01:49:45,519 Speaker 10: didn't feel good about it, and Jason looked at me. 2361 01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:48,760 Speaker 10: He goes either way. One of them is you're overlord 2362 01:49:48,800 --> 01:49:50,880 Speaker 10: in the division. I'm like, no, I get that, but 2363 01:49:50,920 --> 01:49:53,640 Speaker 10: the Packers have owned us for thirty years, so to 2364 01:49:53,720 --> 01:49:56,360 Speaker 10: pick them, you know, does lead that little bit of 2365 01:49:56,479 --> 01:49:58,559 Speaker 10: you know, the eight year old Mikey Harmon with a 2366 01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:00,920 Speaker 10: bad taste in his mouth. Like I always used to 2367 01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:05,120 Speaker 10: draft Brett farre and Rogers in fantasy leagues. They're still 2368 01:50:05,120 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 10: scoring twenty some odd points. You ain't shutting them out, 2369 01:50:08,280 --> 01:50:10,040 Speaker 10: so you might as well have them on your rockster 2370 01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:14,559 Speaker 10: rather than on your opponents beating you on a weekly basis. No, 2371 01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:18,800 Speaker 10: Detroit's impressive, right. The offensive efficiencies that you point out 2372 01:50:18,800 --> 01:50:21,959 Speaker 10: Andy the last couple of weeks are just absolutely absurd. 2373 01:50:22,280 --> 01:50:24,760 Speaker 10: You got two running backs, you know, David Montgomery, the 2374 01:50:24,840 --> 01:50:27,160 Speaker 10: one that got away. He looked really good in the 2375 01:50:27,200 --> 01:50:29,080 Speaker 10: Bear's uniform until it was tame town to get paid 2376 01:50:29,080 --> 01:50:31,160 Speaker 10: and they said, see, yeah, we don't need you anymore, 2377 01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:32,160 Speaker 10: so they move on. 2378 01:50:32,240 --> 01:50:33,600 Speaker 2: Do you know what the shame of it, Vill is? 2379 01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:35,800 Speaker 2: I mean, if things continue the way they are, Dan 2380 01:50:35,840 --> 01:50:37,439 Speaker 2: Campbell still will get Coach of the Year. 2381 01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:39,800 Speaker 1: Well, but you had great expectations. 2382 01:50:40,280 --> 01:50:42,240 Speaker 10: And you know what, that's something we can talk about 2383 01:50:42,280 --> 01:50:44,040 Speaker 10: on the other side, because I mean, I think there's 2384 01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:46,439 Speaker 10: two clear leaders in the clubhouse. It's just a matter 2385 01:50:46,439 --> 01:50:48,639 Speaker 10: of how much you want to chisel off for their 2386 01:50:48,680 --> 01:50:52,040 Speaker 10: respective coordinators in the love. But something's got to give here, right, 2387 01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:54,680 Speaker 10: Winner five in a row, Detroit winner four in a row. 2388 01:50:54,760 --> 01:50:58,519 Speaker 10: Green Bay point differential on the year. Playing one fewer 2389 01:50:58,600 --> 01:51:04,160 Speaker 10: games are plus one one hundred Packers are plus forty six. 2390 01:51:04,880 --> 01:51:08,040 Speaker 10: Craziness either way, field goal game. I've got the Packers, 2391 01:51:08,120 --> 01:51:09,840 Speaker 10: We've got two more games to go to, and we'll 2392 01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:11,639 Speaker 10: talk about the Coach of the Year because I think 2393 01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:14,360 Speaker 10: it brings up an interesting point, as you do with 2394 01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:17,600 Speaker 10: Dan Campbell. Well, we have expectations, kind of like MVPs 2395 01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:20,840 Speaker 10: in leagues. All Right, we've seen you do that. Who's new, right, 2396 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:24,320 Speaker 10: We're cheering for stories. See how it all ties together. 2397 01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:26,960 Speaker 10: I gave you all a big hug right there, and 2398 01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:30,160 Speaker 10: we'll continue to do it next year. On Fox Football Sunday. 2399 01:51:31,040 --> 01:51:33,160 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Fox Sports Radio. 2400 01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:37,120 Speaker 10: It's Fox Football Sunday, Mike Garment alongside Andy Furman Bucky Brooks. 2401 01:51:37,120 --> 01:51:39,719 Speaker 10: As we roll on, We've got three more games, guys, 2402 01:51:39,800 --> 01:51:42,200 Speaker 10: let's do the rapid fire. Then we'll get back into 2403 01:51:42,240 --> 01:51:46,240 Speaker 10: the Coach of the Year. Candidacies rams at Seahawks, ram 2404 01:51:46,240 --> 01:51:48,639 Speaker 10: it all day, ram it all night, the old adage 2405 01:51:48,920 --> 01:51:52,680 Speaker 10: from those the disco days, updated by Elton John at 2406 01:51:52,720 --> 01:51:55,719 Speaker 10: one point, go find it. It's on the interwebs. Rams 2407 01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:58,240 Speaker 10: a narrow favorite against Seattle. They're banged up a bit. 2408 01:51:58,320 --> 01:52:00,400 Speaker 10: Forty eight and a half is your total. Looks like 2409 01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:03,800 Speaker 10: Nikua is gonna be able to play despite missing time 2410 01:52:04,520 --> 01:52:06,840 Speaker 10: this week at practice with his knee two two at 2411 01:52:06,840 --> 01:52:09,920 Speaker 10: well as your leading receiver twenty four catches on the year. Yeah, 2412 01:52:09,920 --> 01:52:12,400 Speaker 10: that's a bit of a surprise, right Parkinson and cup 2413 01:52:12,439 --> 01:52:15,320 Speaker 10: at twenty three each. We know the injury bug has 2414 01:52:15,320 --> 01:52:19,600 Speaker 10: been there. Stafford sixty eight percent completion rate, but just 2415 01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:23,200 Speaker 10: seven touchdowns against five picks in his five games play. 2416 01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:27,559 Speaker 10: Kyron Williams has been fantastic defensively. You lose Aaron Donald, well, 2417 01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:31,439 Speaker 10: you lose a lot Seattle. Geno Smith eight touchdowns, seven picks. 2418 01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:34,599 Speaker 10: Get a theme of what we're talking about with quarterback play, 2419 01:52:35,360 --> 01:52:37,080 Speaker 10: Like a box of chocolates, you don't know what you're 2420 01:52:37,080 --> 01:52:39,559 Speaker 10: gonna get. Six players with at least twenty catches on 2421 01:52:39,600 --> 01:52:43,439 Speaker 10: this squad. Walker's been fantastic one available, DK Metcalf, Noah 2422 01:52:43,439 --> 01:52:46,439 Speaker 10: Fan both out, So it looks like another game for Jackson, 2423 01:52:46,479 --> 01:52:49,360 Speaker 10: Smith and Jigba. He's got forty three catches already on 2424 01:52:49,479 --> 01:52:53,400 Speaker 10: the year. Andy Furman, let's pick this NFC West battle 2425 01:52:53,680 --> 01:52:54,080 Speaker 10: big win. 2426 01:52:54,160 --> 01:52:56,479 Speaker 3: Last week of the Minnesota they keep on rolling the Rams. 2427 01:52:56,520 --> 01:52:59,439 Speaker 3: Deal why there's a different team offensively when Pooka and 2428 01:52:59,520 --> 01:53:01,280 Speaker 3: Coopa in the lineup, a lot. 2429 01:53:01,160 --> 01:53:04,120 Speaker 2: Of yards picked up yawds you have to catch. It's 2430 01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:05,439 Speaker 2: a completely different offense. 2431 01:53:05,479 --> 01:53:07,360 Speaker 3: And you saw that last week a big win of 2432 01:53:07,360 --> 01:53:09,639 Speaker 3: the Minnesota and they're gonna win today the Rams. 2433 01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:17,160 Speaker 4: Bucky Pokin the coup may have a little issue with 2434 01:53:17,280 --> 01:53:20,080 Speaker 4: his knee if he's not available with changes the dynamic 2435 01:53:20,120 --> 01:53:24,000 Speaker 4: of that offense. Let's think about the Seattle Seahawks being 2436 01:53:24,000 --> 01:53:27,200 Speaker 4: able to get this done. And Gino Smith hasn't been terrific, 2437 01:53:27,240 --> 01:53:29,960 Speaker 4: but I just feel like Mike McDonald will find a 2438 01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:32,360 Speaker 4: way to come up with a plan to keep this 2439 01:53:32,439 --> 01:53:35,000 Speaker 4: game close, and Gino Smith will make a play. That's right, 2440 01:53:35,040 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 4: Gino Smith will make a play to get it done, 2441 01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:38,360 Speaker 4: as opposed to Matthew Staff. 2442 01:53:38,439 --> 01:53:41,599 Speaker 10: Since you invoked the coach's name, insert whatever Doobie Brothers 2443 01:53:41,680 --> 01:53:44,280 Speaker 10: song you need as the for the day. 2444 01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:47,360 Speaker 1: Next cold sid Vikings, Oh here we go. 2445 01:53:47,520 --> 01:53:50,719 Speaker 10: I'm all over Team Flacco. It's been flexed into prime 2446 01:53:50,800 --> 01:53:55,200 Speaker 10: time Vikings giving up a big chunkage in yards and 2447 01:53:55,479 --> 01:53:58,800 Speaker 10: opportunity in the passing game of late Sam Donald's still 2448 01:53:58,800 --> 01:54:01,720 Speaker 10: fourteen touchdowns against picks, two hundred and thirty yards per 2449 01:54:01,760 --> 01:54:05,880 Speaker 10: game here uh seven. Uh, He's got seven receivers that are, 2450 01:54:06,160 --> 01:54:08,479 Speaker 10: you know, just getting getting the job done for him. 2451 01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:12,479 Speaker 10: Three players averaging more than fifteen yards per catch for Indy. 2452 01:54:12,680 --> 01:54:15,479 Speaker 10: We've already talked out the Anthony Richards and stuff. Maybe 2453 01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:17,439 Speaker 10: we do it a little more next hour. Forty four 2454 01:54:17,479 --> 01:54:20,800 Speaker 10: percent completion rate, You're gone. Here comes Joe Flacco. Seven 2455 01:54:20,840 --> 01:54:23,840 Speaker 10: touchdowns against one pick and getting downs and Piers and 2456 01:54:24,000 --> 01:54:28,320 Speaker 10: Pittman Junior, everybody's involved. Everybody's in and having Jonathan Taylor 2457 01:54:28,360 --> 01:54:30,559 Speaker 10: at five yards of pop Helps. I'm calling for the 2458 01:54:30,640 --> 01:54:33,040 Speaker 10: upset for the Colts to win, Bucky. We start with you. 2459 01:54:32,880 --> 01:54:36,440 Speaker 4: You called for the coastal win. Yep. 2460 01:54:36,520 --> 01:54:38,840 Speaker 10: Taking the Colts plus five forty six and a half 2461 01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:39,320 Speaker 10: to total. 2462 01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:41,640 Speaker 4: Wow cost win. 2463 01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:44,600 Speaker 10: That defense has been looking average a best, and it 2464 01:54:44,640 --> 01:54:46,760 Speaker 10: would be great if Cam Robinson's there and he's able 2465 01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:51,640 Speaker 10: to replace whatever seventy five percent of Derisol Yeah. 2466 01:54:51,920 --> 01:54:56,839 Speaker 4: No, Look, I think they win just because Joe Flacco 2467 01:54:57,000 --> 01:55:01,160 Speaker 4: gives them a better option at quarterback. Anthony Richison did 2468 01:55:01,480 --> 01:55:03,800 Speaker 4: with all the stuff that in Minnesota Vikings liked to 2469 01:55:03,840 --> 01:55:07,000 Speaker 4: do that was going to days and confused. Anthony Richardson 2470 01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:11,520 Speaker 4: seventeen years, Like seventeen years, he's been the league. He's 2471 01:55:11,520 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 4: seen every conceivable blitz coverage that you can throw at 2472 01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:17,040 Speaker 4: that allows him to be more confident and decide. So 2473 01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:18,280 Speaker 4: so yeah, I can go. I can go with the 2474 01:55:18,320 --> 01:55:19,440 Speaker 4: coltson in this one. 2475 01:55:20,120 --> 01:55:21,840 Speaker 2: All right, Well, I'd let to go with the Colts. 2476 01:55:21,880 --> 01:55:23,640 Speaker 3: And I'll tell you why I love seeing quarterbacks that 2477 01:55:23,680 --> 01:55:24,840 Speaker 3: collect Social Security. 2478 01:55:24,960 --> 01:55:26,640 Speaker 2: I really do. And that's Joe Flacko. 2479 01:55:27,080 --> 01:55:30,280 Speaker 3: But honestly, the Vikings running back Aaron Jones, I think 2480 01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:32,040 Speaker 3: the Vikings get back on the right track. That got 2481 01:55:32,040 --> 01:55:33,760 Speaker 3: a little bit of a skid. They started the season 2482 01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:36,360 Speaker 3: five and No One defeated and they dropped the list two. 2483 01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:38,360 Speaker 3: And I think the kid right back on the gun 2484 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:39,200 Speaker 3: and the right ship. 2485 01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:40,520 Speaker 2: And they're gonna win today. Vikings win. 2486 01:55:40,720 --> 01:55:44,240 Speaker 10: The larger thing for the Colts philosophically, as soon as 2487 01:55:44,240 --> 01:55:49,120 Speaker 10: you brought Flacco in, you changed expectations because you looked 2488 01:55:49,120 --> 01:55:51,280 Speaker 10: at the roster and said, well, if the quarterback serviceable, 2489 01:55:51,320 --> 01:55:54,280 Speaker 10: we can win, and right now looks like they possibly can't. 2490 01:55:54,280 --> 01:55:58,200 Speaker 10: All right, Finally, Monday Night Football, Buccaneers aid Chief Jeep's 2491 01:55:58,240 --> 01:56:01,360 Speaker 10: hat and a half point favorites against the beleaguered, battle 2492 01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:05,240 Speaker 10: tested and battle warn Buccaneers. Forty five and a half 2493 01:56:05,600 --> 01:56:08,680 Speaker 10: is your total in this one. Look at Kareem Hunt 2494 01:56:08,720 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 10: only three point seven yards per carry on this one. 2495 01:56:11,840 --> 01:56:14,640 Speaker 10: Mahomes eight touchdowns, nine picks. We've talked about it a 2496 01:56:14,680 --> 01:56:17,760 Speaker 10: bunch sixteen players thus far with the catch for the 2497 01:56:17,840 --> 01:56:19,920 Speaker 10: Chiefs on the year, guys, it's kind of like the 2498 01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:23,600 Speaker 10: starting pitching position for the Dodgers before their World Series run. 2499 01:56:23,840 --> 01:56:24,720 Speaker 1: See what I did there. 2500 01:56:25,040 --> 01:56:27,800 Speaker 10: And then for Tampa Bay defense giving up nearly twenty 2501 01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:32,040 Speaker 10: seven points per game, third most yack allowed in football. 2502 01:56:32,360 --> 01:56:34,880 Speaker 10: Kate Totten seventeen catches the last two weeks. He's your 2503 01:56:34,960 --> 01:56:38,040 Speaker 10: leader in the clubhouse. Rashad White also stepping up. He's 2504 01:56:38,040 --> 01:56:41,240 Speaker 10: got twenty eight catches. Baker Mayfield twenty one touchdowns already, 2505 01:56:41,280 --> 01:56:44,600 Speaker 10: at least three touchdowns four straight games. Andy Furman, I'm 2506 01:56:44,640 --> 01:56:46,040 Speaker 10: taking Chiefs in a route. 2507 01:56:46,160 --> 01:56:48,560 Speaker 3: How can you not take the Chiefs? I mean, everybody said, 2508 01:56:48,600 --> 01:56:50,080 Speaker 3: did not the same that doing this. They're not the 2509 01:56:50,080 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 3: same unit they have been in the past. They got 2510 01:56:51,800 --> 01:56:54,840 Speaker 3: great defense, you know. And Travis Kelsey, they said he's dead, 2511 01:56:54,920 --> 01:56:57,120 Speaker 3: He's back now. He had ten receptions last week his 2512 01:56:57,200 --> 01:57:00,000 Speaker 3: favorite talk at Mahomes. He's back there. Chiefs win this game, 2513 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:02,560 Speaker 3: and they're gonna win that. Not by double digits, but 2514 01:57:02,600 --> 01:57:03,160 Speaker 3: they win. 2515 01:57:04,080 --> 01:57:07,000 Speaker 1: All right. So now let's get Bucky. What do you think. 2516 01:57:09,800 --> 01:57:11,680 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no no. I'm with the Chiefs. I'm 2517 01:57:11,680 --> 01:57:14,600 Speaker 4: with it. Like I feel like Andy was heading his 2518 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:18,000 Speaker 4: bed a little bit. That's all. I just wanted to go. 2519 01:57:18,040 --> 01:57:19,280 Speaker 4: I want to go all the way in. That's all. 2520 01:57:19,320 --> 01:57:21,520 Speaker 2: Jeff Food, I'm a swiftly I gotta go with the Chiefs. 2521 01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:24,920 Speaker 10: Look at you. I'll send you some friends friendship bracelets. 2522 01:57:25,600 --> 01:57:28,720 Speaker 10: That was a whole other thing with Jason Kelsey yesterday. 2523 01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:31,880 Speaker 10: Uh so, yeah, it's it's been a bunch of news 2524 01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:34,560 Speaker 10: stories outside of the game. But yeah, I'll send you 2525 01:57:34,560 --> 01:57:37,360 Speaker 10: a friendship bracelet. As they finished that tour in Indianapolis, 2526 01:57:37,560 --> 01:57:40,360 Speaker 10: quickly the coach of the Year, I've got two guys. 2527 01:57:41,480 --> 01:57:44,960 Speaker 10: You're right, you brought up Campbell. Expectations were strong, expectations 2528 01:57:45,000 --> 01:57:46,880 Speaker 10: were big. I don't think it should dismiss him much 2529 01:57:46,960 --> 01:57:50,200 Speaker 10: like we've seen with the NBA or with you know, 2530 01:57:50,360 --> 01:57:52,360 Speaker 10: manager of the Year in Major League Baseball. But that's 2531 01:57:52,400 --> 01:57:55,040 Speaker 10: the way it works. We look at the next uh 2532 01:57:55,120 --> 01:57:58,640 Speaker 10: and and wins above expectations, which means Sean Payton and 2533 01:57:58,720 --> 01:58:00,760 Speaker 10: dan Quinn are the two guys in the clubhouse because 2534 01:58:00,760 --> 01:58:04,360 Speaker 10: with wins today, they both exceed their projected win totals 2535 01:58:04,360 --> 01:58:04,920 Speaker 10: for the season. 2536 01:58:06,040 --> 01:58:08,360 Speaker 2: Hm, dan Quinn's the flavor of the day. 2537 01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:10,480 Speaker 3: I mean, they're America's team right now, Washington, so dan 2538 01:58:10,560 --> 01:58:12,360 Speaker 3: Quinn's probably gonna get it. But I think they have 2539 01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:15,040 Speaker 3: to look at Matt Lafleur and Kevin O'Connell was up 2540 01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:17,680 Speaker 3: there for me, but the little slipped the last two weeks, 2541 01:58:17,680 --> 01:58:19,760 Speaker 3: but not Lafleur. What he has done in Green Bay 2542 01:58:20,080 --> 01:58:22,120 Speaker 3: and with injuries as well. I think he's done a 2543 01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:23,760 Speaker 3: great job. He'll got some votes, but I think dan 2544 01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:24,520 Speaker 3: Quinn gets it. 2545 01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:27,040 Speaker 1: What do you think, Bucky. 2546 01:58:29,440 --> 01:58:31,800 Speaker 4: Dan Quinn? I think I'm with dan Quinn just because 2547 01:58:31,840 --> 01:58:34,480 Speaker 4: the story is so compelling and good. The quarterback is good, 2548 01:58:34,720 --> 01:58:38,200 Speaker 4: it's fun, The league is better when the Washington commanders 2549 01:58:38,240 --> 01:58:39,200 Speaker 4: are are that. 2550 01:58:39,320 --> 01:58:43,560 Speaker 10: H Well, that's it right, that chefter report. Hey, clean 2551 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:47,200 Speaker 10: out management, cleanout ownership. Guess what good things can follow 2552 01:58:47,240 --> 01:58:49,200 Speaker 10: the expectations. 2553 01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:50,520 Speaker 2: They had none, Right, they had no expectations. 2554 01:58:51,040 --> 01:58:54,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, they've even said now everything is like hashtag hail 2555 01:58:55,240 --> 01:58:57,880 Speaker 4: they're back. They're back. Not he all to the commanders, 2556 01:58:58,240 --> 01:59:01,520 Speaker 4: not he all to the previous nick name all Hill. 2557 01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:03,560 Speaker 2: They'll change back to the redskins again. 2558 01:59:04,960 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, my gods, you can't say that, Andy s. Iought, no, 2559 01:59:09,120 --> 01:59:11,120 Speaker 4: you can't see the skins.

But I thought they 2565 01:59:24,960 --> 01:59:25,840 Speaker 4: weren't trying to do it. 2566 01:59:26,040 --> 01:59:26,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2567 01:59:26,680 --> 01:59:29,400 Speaker 10: I think there's that giant debate that keeps swirling in 2568 01:59:29,440 --> 01:59:32,480 Speaker 10: the background. There might be a referendum in the local 2569 01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:36,040 Speaker 10: elections this week. I don't know.

Yeah, they're bad. 2600 02:01:14,600 --> 02:01:19,240 Speaker 4: They're bad, just just enough to tease you and bring 2601 02:01:19,280 --> 02:01:20,400 Speaker 4: you back into the layer. 2602 02:01:20,480 --> 02:01:21,960 Speaker 1: They'll do that to bring you. 2603 02:01:21,960 --> 02:01:25,120 Speaker 4: Back, and and and all of that, and all the 2604 02:01:25,120 --> 02:01:28,280 Speaker 4: the user suspects showed up like Aaron Rodgers after having 2605 02:01:28,320 --> 02:01:32,040 Speaker 4: a terrible first half, bounces back through some touchdowns. They 2606 02:01:32,080 --> 02:01:35,080 Speaker 4: even finish it off. You know those two great touchdowns, 2607 02:01:35,120 --> 02:01:37,720 Speaker 4: right Garrett Wilson. But DeVante Adams gets to get into 2608 02:01:37,760 --> 02:01:41,520 Speaker 4: paint and talk about it. So everybody is ready to 2609 02:01:41,560 --> 02:01:45,600 Speaker 4: say the Jets are back, they're up and all that. 2610 02:01:45,960 --> 02:01:47,520 Speaker 4: I'm gon need more time to see that they can 2611 02:01:47,560 --> 02:01:50,240 Speaker 4: do it multiple weeks in a row, just not to believe. 2612 02:01:50,280 --> 02:01:53,960 Speaker 10: I mean big defensive breakdowns. I mean the Atoms play 2613 02:01:54,000 --> 02:01:56,680 Speaker 10: in particular, they still can't stop the run. So if 2614 02:01:56,680 --> 02:01:59,720 Speaker 10: you're willing to keep running the football, uh, they're dead 2615 02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:02,680 Speaker 10: in the one. And let's face it, they faced a 2616 02:02:02,880 --> 02:02:07,520 Speaker 10: very wounded Houston team. I've been questioning all along. You 2617 02:02:07,560 --> 02:02:09,800 Speaker 10: know the record, and look, you are who you play, 2618 02:02:09,880 --> 02:02:12,520 Speaker 10: and you know who you beat and everything, but doesn't mean, 2619 02:02:12,520 --> 02:02:14,720 Speaker 10: we can't, you know, put notes off in the side 2620 02:02:14,960 --> 02:02:17,560 Speaker 10: and the offensive line for Houston one of those things 2621 02:02:17,560 --> 02:02:21,040 Speaker 10: that's been exposed week after week, and not having Nico 2622 02:02:21,120 --> 02:02:24,200 Speaker 10: Collins and not having Stefan Diggs once he gets hurt, 2623 02:02:24,880 --> 02:02:26,960 Speaker 10: you don't have those go tos, Right, it goes down 2624 02:02:26,960 --> 02:02:30,040 Speaker 10: to Tank Dell, Dalton Schultz and a lot of wishing 2625 02:02:30,080 --> 02:02:32,640 Speaker 10: and hoping, and let's face it, second half, Joe Mixon 2626 02:02:33,440 --> 02:02:37,640 Speaker 10: was invisible after a monster first half. Good job by 2627 02:02:37,680 --> 02:02:40,280 Speaker 10: the defense of the Jets, but they did exactly what 2628 02:02:40,320 --> 02:02:43,080 Speaker 10: we expected. That defensive line with the San Reddick now 2629 02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:46,400 Speaker 10: energized and ready to play, they were all over c J. 2630 02:02:46,520 --> 02:02:46,800 Speaker 1: Stroud. 2631 02:02:46,840 --> 02:02:50,240 Speaker 10: I mean he's already been sacked thirty one times this year, Bucky, 2632 02:02:50,280 --> 02:02:52,360 Speaker 10: that's me. I think that's one off of where he 2633 02:02:52,480 --> 02:02:53,720 Speaker 10: was a year ago. 2634 02:02:55,440 --> 02:02:59,600 Speaker 4: Look, this this is okay. Their offensive line is really bad, 2635 02:03:00,240 --> 02:03:03,560 Speaker 4: like really really really really really bad, like because just 2636 02:03:03,680 --> 02:03:06,480 Speaker 4: the injuries and those things that beat up CJ. Stroud 2637 02:03:06,480 --> 02:03:08,520 Speaker 4: hasn't been the same. Nico Collins goes out the lineup. 2638 02:03:08,560 --> 02:03:11,960 Speaker 4: Now you have Stephan Diggs who's on the side. They're 2639 02:03:12,000 --> 02:03:13,680 Speaker 4: trying to find a way to do it. And then 2640 02:03:13,720 --> 02:03:16,400 Speaker 4: defensively they've been really bad in the red zone. That's it. 2641 02:03:16,400 --> 02:03:18,960 Speaker 4: They have a comfortable lead in their division, right, they 2642 02:03:19,040 --> 02:03:22,520 Speaker 4: still should should should own the division. By the time 2643 02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:26,160 Speaker 4: the season comes and you're hoping that the sophomore slump 2644 02:03:26,280 --> 02:03:29,680 Speaker 4: or whatever this we want to call whatever Stroud is 2645 02:03:29,760 --> 02:03:33,360 Speaker 4: kind of enduring, that he shakes out of it. You know, 2646 02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:35,040 Speaker 4: he gets out of the slump, he finds his way, 2647 02:03:35,080 --> 02:03:36,760 Speaker 4: he goes back to being the offensive rookie of the 2648 02:03:36,800 --> 02:03:39,480 Speaker 4: year type player that we saw a season go because 2649 02:03:39,560 --> 02:03:42,280 Speaker 4: they have the weapons, but the AFC is so loaded, 2650 02:03:42,960 --> 02:03:45,040 Speaker 4: they're going to have to take their game up a 2651 02:03:45,120 --> 02:03:48,160 Speaker 4: notch to be able to seriously compete with the heavyweights 2652 02:03:48,160 --> 02:03:49,000 Speaker 4: when it comes down to it. 2653 02:03:49,080 --> 02:03:51,760 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's the curiosity though, Right, how much goes on 2654 02:03:51,840 --> 02:03:54,760 Speaker 10: Stroud because at this point I haven't heard much much 2655 02:03:54,800 --> 02:03:57,840 Speaker 10: of anything other than maybe a faint whisper about his 2656 02:03:57,920 --> 02:04:00,760 Speaker 10: play because you look at the turnstile offensive line, Tunsil, 2657 02:04:00,760 --> 02:04:04,440 Speaker 10: who's usually rock solid, I mean, he's he's committing you know, 2658 02:04:04,600 --> 02:04:08,520 Speaker 10: egregious pre snap penalties at this point in the season 2659 02:04:09,080 --> 02:04:12,120 Speaker 10: with the way they're trying to cover and make things happen. 2660 02:04:12,200 --> 02:04:14,120 Speaker 10: So how much of that goes on troub. They missed 2661 02:04:14,160 --> 02:04:16,800 Speaker 10: mixing for a couple of weeks after the hip drop 2662 02:04:16,880 --> 02:04:20,120 Speaker 10: tackle against the Bears. But they're a curiosity. And you know, 2663 02:04:20,160 --> 02:04:24,720 Speaker 10: we talked a little with predicting the Indianapolis Minnesota game. 2664 02:04:25,120 --> 02:04:28,000 Speaker 10: It's why when Joe Flacco showed up with the Colts 2665 02:04:28,480 --> 02:04:33,160 Speaker 10: and given Anthony Richardson's injury history and now this latest episode, 2666 02:04:33,200 --> 02:04:37,040 Speaker 10: which we've chronicled ad nauseam of tapping out for the play, 2667 02:04:37,080 --> 02:04:39,720 Speaker 10: saying he's tired and being, you know, the candor that 2668 02:04:39,760 --> 02:04:44,480 Speaker 10: we desire from athletes. There's still some boundaries in that 2669 02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:47,240 Speaker 10: locker room of what guys are supposed to be candid with, right, 2670 02:04:47,440 --> 02:04:50,680 Speaker 10: So you know that that was the I didn't feel right, 2671 02:04:50,760 --> 02:04:53,480 Speaker 10: I didn't have this whatever, whatever execution needed to make. 2672 02:04:54,400 --> 02:04:57,280 Speaker 10: You had plenty of opportunities to bail yourself out. Instead 2673 02:04:57,520 --> 02:05:00,680 Speaker 10: chose the path of honesty. And now he's on the bench. 2674 02:05:01,120 --> 02:05:03,080 Speaker 10: But when Flackel was brought in, you saw what he 2675 02:05:03,080 --> 02:05:05,920 Speaker 10: did with Cleveland a year ago. While he may not 2676 02:05:06,000 --> 02:05:08,400 Speaker 10: be the guy for seventeen games, he's shown that he 2677 02:05:08,440 --> 02:05:11,280 Speaker 10: can still play and sling it as well as anybody. 2678 02:05:11,520 --> 02:05:13,360 Speaker 10: So all of a sudden, you know, objects in rear 2679 02:05:13,480 --> 02:05:16,640 Speaker 10: view mirror for Houston. If they can't write things and 2680 02:05:16,720 --> 02:05:19,440 Speaker 10: Nico Collins doesn't come back and get right back to 2681 02:05:19,480 --> 02:05:21,720 Speaker 10: being Nico Collins all of a sudden, the Colts could 2682 02:05:21,720 --> 02:05:24,120 Speaker 10: be a real interesting squad the second half. 2683 02:05:25,920 --> 02:05:28,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, they can't be an interesting squad the second half. 2684 02:05:29,040 --> 02:05:31,560 Speaker 4: I'll say this because I don't want this to get 2685 02:05:31,600 --> 02:05:35,640 Speaker 4: lost in the thing, Like it wasn't Anthony Richardson's admission 2686 02:05:36,040 --> 02:05:39,320 Speaker 4: about being tired of whatever. It was him actually tapping out. 2687 02:05:40,000 --> 02:05:41,800 Speaker 4: It's not the admission to the media, like, yeah, it's 2688 02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:44,480 Speaker 4: a bad look, and you would talk about quarterback like 2689 02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:47,920 Speaker 4: a media training one on one. Don't give them the 2690 02:05:48,000 --> 02:05:50,280 Speaker 4: real Sometimes you have to give them coach speak or 2691 02:05:50,480 --> 02:05:56,160 Speaker 4: canned answers to protect everyone involved. For him, I think 2692 02:05:56,160 --> 02:05:59,000 Speaker 4: he goes with a series of things that suggested that 2693 02:05:59,040 --> 02:06:00,960 Speaker 4: he's not ready to be the QB one. 2694 02:06:01,080 --> 02:06:02,080 Speaker 1: Oh no, he's so good. 2695 02:06:02,560 --> 02:06:05,000 Speaker 10: I mean, that's the biggest thing that needs to be 2696 02:06:05,400 --> 02:06:07,480 Speaker 10: people need to remember in all of this, Bucky, is 2697 02:06:07,520 --> 02:06:10,320 Speaker 10: that if he was still playing winning football, take a 2698 02:06:10,440 --> 02:06:13,839 Speaker 10: series off if you need to, let's go, but completing 2699 02:06:13,920 --> 02:06:17,000 Speaker 10: forty four of your past attempts, Nah, you got your 2700 02:06:17,040 --> 02:06:17,920 Speaker 10: margin for error. 2701 02:06:18,560 --> 02:06:20,600 Speaker 4: No, and I've written about it. To Friday before, I 2702 02:06:20,680 --> 02:06:22,280 Speaker 4: talked about like, look, they need to sit him down. 2703 02:06:22,280 --> 02:06:25,960 Speaker 4: If Shane Stocking wants to maintain the credibility, his credibility 2704 02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:28,280 Speaker 4: within the locker room, he has to sit him down. 2705 02:06:28,320 --> 02:06:31,960 Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson was completing Joe Namath type numbers. 2706 02:06:32,200 --> 02:06:36,680 Speaker 1: You know, he's fact when you're but we're not. 2707 02:06:37,000 --> 02:06:40,680 Speaker 4: We're not in the sixties and seventies. He should be whatever. 2708 02:06:40,760 --> 02:06:43,440 Speaker 4: And the fact that they've tried to evolve the offense. 2709 02:06:43,480 --> 02:06:45,720 Speaker 4: They've tried to use quarterback runs in those things, and 2710 02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:49,200 Speaker 4: he has been hurt a lot because he can't protect himself. 2711 02:06:49,240 --> 02:06:52,880 Speaker 4: So I believe this is me Bucky Brooks saying, I 2712 02:06:52,880 --> 02:06:55,600 Speaker 4: don't think he has natural instincts for the position as 2713 02:06:55,600 --> 02:06:59,600 Speaker 4: a thrower and as a runner because he takes wild 2714 02:07:00,080 --> 02:07:03,400 Speaker 4: I mean big shots that we've never seen. Lamar Jackson 2715 02:07:03,400 --> 02:07:05,040 Speaker 4: and some of these other quarterbacks say, I just don't 2716 02:07:05,040 --> 02:07:08,400 Speaker 4: think he has a great feel for the game and 2717 02:07:08,440 --> 02:07:12,000 Speaker 4: what's going on around him. So maybe the reset will 2718 02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:13,920 Speaker 4: help him and give him time to kind of focus 2719 02:07:13,960 --> 02:07:17,440 Speaker 4: on the fundamentals and if he dives into it diligently, 2720 02:07:18,080 --> 02:07:21,000 Speaker 4: much like Jordan Love did during those three years he 2721 02:07:21,080 --> 02:07:23,360 Speaker 4: set off, maybe he can come back and be the 2722 02:07:23,360 --> 02:07:25,160 Speaker 4: player that they want him to be. We need a 2723 02:07:25,240 --> 02:07:26,960 Speaker 4: number four overall pick. He's going to be there for 2724 02:07:27,000 --> 02:07:28,840 Speaker 4: a minute. As much as people want to say like, oh, 2725 02:07:28,880 --> 02:07:30,560 Speaker 4: they got to find another one. No, no, no, they can't 2726 02:07:30,560 --> 02:07:33,400 Speaker 4: find another one right away. He has to work on 2727 02:07:33,440 --> 02:07:35,680 Speaker 4: his game, but they can't just give him the job. 2728 02:07:35,960 --> 02:07:38,160 Speaker 4: He's lost the right to be entitled to the job 2729 02:07:38,200 --> 02:07:39,640 Speaker 4: based on the way. Yeah. 2730 02:07:39,880 --> 02:07:41,840 Speaker 10: I mean, look, you and I've talked about this for 2731 02:07:41,960 --> 02:07:44,680 Speaker 10: years on the network, and you know, for those just 2732 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:47,080 Speaker 10: joining us for the first time, welcome in, Grab a 2733 02:07:47,080 --> 02:07:48,840 Speaker 10: cup of coffee, sit a while.

But 2738 02:07:59,600 --> 02:08:03,520 Speaker 10: you know, quarterback development, I've never been one that thought 2739 02:08:03,600 --> 02:08:06,440 Speaker 10: the draft position should dictate whether you play or not. 2740 02:08:06,520 --> 02:08:10,120 Speaker 10: Now you've got situations whereby you're in a complete teardown. 2741 02:08:10,240 --> 02:08:13,480 Speaker 10: So it's all right, the clock's ticking, Just go go 2742 02:08:13,520 --> 02:08:18,080 Speaker 10: and start and trial by fire, right Peyton Manning all 2743 02:08:18,080 --> 02:08:20,080 Speaker 10: those years ago, and I don't do that to say, hey, 2744 02:08:20,120 --> 02:08:22,200 Speaker 10: you're going to become a Hall of Famer, just saying 2745 02:08:22,560 --> 02:08:25,400 Speaker 10: clearly he had his growing pains, and it was you 2746 02:08:25,440 --> 02:08:29,320 Speaker 10: know what, take the lumps, learn as you can, and 2747 02:08:29,760 --> 02:08:33,000 Speaker 10: take that for Anthony Richardson, the idea that they brought 2748 02:08:33,000 --> 02:08:37,400 Speaker 10: in Flacco and we, I think most of us anyway 2749 02:08:38,120 --> 02:08:40,520 Speaker 10: looked at the Colts as potentially a top ten roster 2750 02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:44,160 Speaker 10: if Richardson did his part right. But we go back 2751 02:08:44,160 --> 02:08:46,920 Speaker 10: to quarterback development and when guys are ready, when they're 2752 02:08:46,960 --> 02:08:50,200 Speaker 10: not and being hamstrung. We watched it in Cleveland where 2753 02:08:50,200 --> 02:08:52,360 Speaker 10: it was clear to Deshan Watson had no business being 2754 02:08:52,360 --> 02:08:55,960 Speaker 10: on the field, but money plays the owner had Stefanski 2755 02:08:56,040 --> 02:08:58,880 Speaker 10: week after week going in front of the camera like 2756 02:08:58,920 --> 02:09:02,560 Speaker 10: he was a puppet. Deshaun still gives us the best 2757 02:09:02,640 --> 02:09:05,960 Speaker 10: chance to win until he was hurt and couldn't anymore. 2758 02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:08,560 Speaker 10: And then you see what Jameis Winston does. Now you're 2759 02:09:08,560 --> 02:09:10,160 Speaker 10: going to ride a roller coaster with him, but he 2760 02:09:10,200 --> 02:09:13,280 Speaker 10: gives you an opportunity. With Anthony Richardson, you had too 2761 02:09:13,360 --> 02:09:16,400 Speaker 10: few of those peaks and a lot more. Hey, that's 2762 02:09:16,440 --> 02:09:20,240 Speaker 10: a really cavernous dip we're going into and wishing and 2763 02:09:20,280 --> 02:09:22,280 Speaker 10: hoping for the next big play. So by bringing in 2764 02:09:22,280 --> 02:09:25,760 Speaker 10: a guy like Flacco, a proven winner, you know, folks 2765 02:09:25,760 --> 02:09:28,160 Speaker 10: can joke about his age all they want. We got 2766 02:09:28,160 --> 02:09:31,280 Speaker 10: plenty of older quarterbacks still in the NFL. I don't 2767 02:09:31,320 --> 02:09:33,200 Speaker 10: know why he gets singled out. Aaron Rodgers is three 2768 02:09:33,280 --> 02:09:37,160 Speaker 10: years older than him. Stafford's what a year younger. I mean, 2769 02:09:37,280 --> 02:09:39,000 Speaker 10: just keep going on down the line. These guys can 2770 02:09:39,040 --> 02:09:41,640 Speaker 10: still win at a good level. And Flacco just because 2771 02:09:41,640 --> 02:09:43,800 Speaker 10: he's become a little bit of a journeyman. And it's 2772 02:09:43,840 --> 02:09:46,200 Speaker 10: been years since we said Lacco is elite. I mean, 2773 02:09:46,200 --> 02:09:49,760 Speaker 10: they've got a roster that can compete, especially if Taylor's 2774 02:09:49,800 --> 02:09:50,760 Speaker 10: up and ready to run. 2775 02:09:52,600 --> 02:09:57,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know. So here's the thing with Flacco and 2776 02:09:57,440 --> 02:10:01,720 Speaker 4: why it works. Flacco at this, at this stage of 2777 02:10:01,760 --> 02:10:04,480 Speaker 4: his career, right, he understands the game. It's slow motion 2778 02:10:04,720 --> 02:10:07,480 Speaker 4: for him. Seventeen years in the game, You've seen everything, 2779 02:10:07,560 --> 02:10:10,400 Speaker 4: so it slows down. He can process it. His biggest 2780 02:10:10,440 --> 02:10:13,560 Speaker 4: advantage is knowing what's coming and being able to have 2781 02:10:13,640 --> 02:10:16,360 Speaker 4: answers already ready baked before he even takes the snap, 2782 02:10:16,520 --> 02:10:18,120 Speaker 4: knowing where he's going to go with the ball. We 2783 02:10:18,160 --> 02:10:20,680 Speaker 4: saw a different version of the coach. Early in the year. 2784 02:10:20,920 --> 02:10:22,480 Speaker 4: I was on the field when they almost beat the 2785 02:10:22,520 --> 02:10:24,680 Speaker 4: Jacksonville Jaguars they wonted the week before when he was 2786 02:10:24,720 --> 02:10:28,600 Speaker 4: at quarterback. The rod receivers were involved, Josh Downs, Michael Pittman, 2787 02:10:28,680 --> 02:10:32,680 Speaker 4: Alec Pierce, all those guys were involved when he was 2788 02:10:32,680 --> 02:10:35,960 Speaker 4: throwing the rock. And at some point when we talk 2789 02:10:36,000 --> 02:10:38,720 Speaker 4: about the young quarterbacks and a lot of it, I'll 2790 02:10:38,720 --> 02:10:41,520 Speaker 4: say it's our fault, right because we get a little 2791 02:10:41,680 --> 02:10:44,640 Speaker 4: nugget and we run with it trying to sound smart like, oh, 2792 02:10:44,640 --> 02:10:46,280 Speaker 4: we got to see what we have. We got to 2793 02:10:46,280 --> 02:10:47,720 Speaker 4: see what we have in him. We got to put 2794 02:10:47,800 --> 02:10:52,400 Speaker 4: him on the field. No, you don't, because what happens 2795 02:10:52,440 --> 02:10:55,200 Speaker 4: at quarterback and in the league is so different than 2796 02:10:55,200 --> 02:10:59,040 Speaker 4: anything else. They're twenty two positions, right, twenty two starting spots, 2797 02:10:59,200 --> 02:11:02,760 Speaker 4: but it's really one and one. The other twenty one 2798 02:11:02,800 --> 02:11:05,320 Speaker 4: guys have to earn the right to be on the field, 2799 02:11:05,440 --> 02:11:08,360 Speaker 4: and if they don't play well, they come off the field. 2800 02:11:08,600 --> 02:11:10,640 Speaker 4: Quarterback is the only one where we say, hey, we 2801 02:11:10,680 --> 02:11:13,480 Speaker 4: can't bring in competition and may hurt his feelings. Hey, 2802 02:11:13,480 --> 02:11:15,280 Speaker 4: we got to put him on the field early to 2803 02:11:15,280 --> 02:11:18,280 Speaker 4: see what we got. We never demand the same things 2804 02:11:18,600 --> 02:11:21,720 Speaker 4: of the quarterback that we demand of everybody else, and 2805 02:11:21,760 --> 02:11:24,520 Speaker 4: because of that, we don't develop them the right way 2806 02:11:24,560 --> 02:11:27,800 Speaker 4: because they're given the ability to skip steps, and then 2807 02:11:27,840 --> 02:11:30,800 Speaker 4: from the coaching standpoint, we put way too much on 2808 02:11:30,880 --> 02:11:33,800 Speaker 4: them too soon, and as soon as they falter, the 2809 02:11:33,920 --> 02:11:37,280 Speaker 4: coaches and us the fans say, oh, he can't play. 2810 02:11:38,360 --> 02:11:40,680 Speaker 4: It's all flawed. And so they got to go back 2811 02:11:40,720 --> 02:11:43,720 Speaker 4: to not making it a quarterback centric league. Make it 2812 02:11:43,760 --> 02:11:46,000 Speaker 4: about the team, make it about the balance of the 2813 02:11:46,040 --> 02:11:48,040 Speaker 4: running game and all that other stuff. You do that, 2814 02:11:48,640 --> 02:11:51,520 Speaker 4: then you'll have a better product at quarterback because he's 2815 02:11:51,560 --> 02:11:54,720 Speaker 4: a part of the offense, he's not the entire offense. 2816 02:11:54,920 --> 02:11:58,280 Speaker 10: And this year in the NFL we're seeing that quite 2817 02:11:58,320 --> 02:12:01,839 Speaker 10: a bit, more of the run game more focused across 2818 02:12:01,840 --> 02:12:03,960 Speaker 10: the league. I think some of it possession wise, we've 2819 02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:08,240 Speaker 10: talked about the super tow effect and kickers being regularly 2820 02:12:08,320 --> 02:12:10,880 Speaker 10: able to knock down fifty yard plus field goals. So 2821 02:12:10,920 --> 02:12:12,880 Speaker 10: now you can get a three points out of a 2822 02:12:12,920 --> 02:12:16,360 Speaker 10: possession by maybe playing a little more conservatively and running 2823 02:12:16,400 --> 02:12:19,360 Speaker 10: the football, and look, you're running game clock. One of 2824 02:12:19,360 --> 02:12:22,040 Speaker 10: the great things to do shorten the game and can 2825 02:12:22,040 --> 02:12:23,680 Speaker 10: get out of there with the three points. That's an 2826 02:12:23,720 --> 02:12:27,680 Speaker 10: effective I can't wait to see that chart start flowing 2827 02:12:27,680 --> 02:12:30,000 Speaker 10: like we have with the two point chart and everything right. 2828 02:12:30,760 --> 02:12:33,560 Speaker 4: It is because what happened right, and I'm telling you 2829 02:12:33,840 --> 02:12:37,160 Speaker 4: it's our fault harmon on this side. Man, we became 2830 02:12:37,200 --> 02:12:39,520 Speaker 4: the smarty alreadies right, we became a smart dear. Oh, 2831 02:12:39,560 --> 02:12:43,000 Speaker 4: don't run it through it, you're wasting plays. Play action 2832 02:12:43,360 --> 02:12:47,320 Speaker 4: doesn't matter, the run game doesn't matter. Running backs are devalued. 2833 02:12:47,360 --> 02:12:51,360 Speaker 4: We don't need them. Throw anybody there. No, there are 2834 02:12:51,360 --> 02:12:53,680 Speaker 4: a couple cases that you can find a quarterback that 2835 02:12:53,720 --> 02:12:56,600 Speaker 4: can exist without a viable running game. There are a 2836 02:12:56,600 --> 02:12:59,360 Speaker 4: couple of cases where you can get by with some fifth, 2837 02:12:59,480 --> 02:13:03,360 Speaker 4: sixth seven undrafted running backs and do it, but not 2838 02:13:03,520 --> 02:13:06,360 Speaker 4: for a long time. There's a reason why the guys 2839 02:13:06,400 --> 02:13:10,200 Speaker 4: that have staying power were drafted at the top. They're 2840 02:13:10,280 --> 02:13:13,280 Speaker 4: drafted in the first or second round. Derrick Henry is 2841 02:13:13,280 --> 02:13:16,760 Speaker 4: still playing well. Joe Mixon is at the top. Christian 2842 02:13:16,960 --> 02:13:19,000 Speaker 4: McCaffrey's been hurt, but he was the first round pick. 2843 02:13:19,040 --> 02:13:20,840 Speaker 4: Alva Kamar had. 2844 02:13:20,320 --> 02:13:23,280 Speaker 1: Like rafted like. 2845 02:13:23,400 --> 02:13:25,680 Speaker 4: Look at where those guys are drafted first or second round, 2846 02:13:25,760 --> 02:13:27,839 Speaker 4: not just guys that were picked up off the trash 2847 02:13:27,880 --> 02:13:30,560 Speaker 4: heap and say, oh go run and make plays, and 2848 02:13:31,800 --> 02:13:34,240 Speaker 4: the formula that everyone has to understand when it comes 2849 02:13:34,320 --> 02:13:37,880 Speaker 4: to quarterback and the running back. The better the quarterback, 2850 02:13:38,240 --> 02:13:40,800 Speaker 4: the less of the need for a high end running back. 2851 02:13:41,680 --> 02:13:45,440 Speaker 4: The more mediocre the quarterback, the better the need to 2852 02:13:45,480 --> 02:13:48,800 Speaker 4: have an elite running back. But here's what I'm also seeing. 2853 02:13:49,040 --> 02:13:52,240 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson won the MVP. They went and gave him 2854 02:13:52,280 --> 02:13:55,760 Speaker 4: a better running back. He's playing like the MVP plus 2855 02:13:55,800 --> 02:13:59,760 Speaker 4: this year. So maybe just maybe there is some value 2856 02:13:59,760 --> 02:14:02,040 Speaker 4: in the running game and the running back as it 2857 02:14:02,280 --> 02:14:05,680 Speaker 4: enhances and maybe upgrades what a quarterback can do it 2858 02:14:05,720 --> 02:14:06,160 Speaker 4: a position. 2859 02:14:06,240 --> 02:14:08,839 Speaker 10: Yeah, so all of that to say at the beginning, 2860 02:14:08,920 --> 02:14:11,880 Speaker 10: and now Taylor being healthy will certainly aid Flacco and 2861 02:14:11,920 --> 02:14:12,640 Speaker 10: they they'll have that. 2862 02:14:14,520 --> 02:14:15,200 Speaker 1: Jonathan Tamil. 2863 02:14:15,840 --> 02:14:18,000 Speaker 4: Okay, because whenever you say Taylor, first thing, because of 2864 02:14:18,040 --> 02:14:19,320 Speaker 4: mind is Taylor's just starting. 2865 02:14:19,040 --> 02:14:23,160 Speaker 1: Getting this is healthy, Yes she is. 2866 02:14:23,200 --> 02:14:25,080 Speaker 10: She's finishing up the tour, She's got a couple more 2867 02:14:25,160 --> 02:14:28,680 Speaker 10: dates in Indianapolis, and then she'll be back, uh celebrating 2868 02:14:28,760 --> 02:14:31,040 Speaker 10: Chiefs games here in short order, one would think. But 2869 02:14:31,680 --> 02:14:35,000 Speaker 10: just you know, Jonathan Taylor being help healthy certainly would 2870 02:14:35,000 --> 02:14:39,000 Speaker 10: have maybe helped Anthony Richardson a bit. But let's face it, 2871 02:14:39,080 --> 02:14:41,800 Speaker 10: like we watched it week after week, it wasn't ready. 2872 02:14:42,040 --> 02:14:46,440 Speaker 10: So it goes back to the original premise of wouldn't 2873 02:14:46,440 --> 02:14:49,880 Speaker 10: you rather your long term investment payoff instead of having 2874 02:14:49,880 --> 02:14:53,280 Speaker 10: to go back to the well the next year because 2875 02:14:53,280 --> 02:14:57,160 Speaker 10: you've decided based on media feedback and the locker room, 2876 02:14:57,360 --> 02:14:59,520 Speaker 10: because that locker room will turn too, because that because 2877 02:14:59,560 --> 02:15:02,120 Speaker 10: that affects everybody else's jobs and what they get to 2878 02:15:02,160 --> 02:15:05,400 Speaker 10: put on tape two. Yes, because right your agent now 2879 02:15:05,440 --> 02:15:07,240 Speaker 10: has to go in if you're an offensive lineman and 2880 02:15:07,240 --> 02:15:09,840 Speaker 10: do a bunch of excuse making for a quarterback who's 2881 02:15:09,840 --> 02:15:12,360 Speaker 10: not reading right and put you in harm's way to 2882 02:15:12,440 --> 02:15:15,520 Speaker 10: have to clutch and grab and everything else. Everybody should 2883 02:15:15,560 --> 02:15:17,320 Speaker 10: be smart enough in the room. But let's face it, 2884 02:15:17,440 --> 02:15:20,720 Speaker 10: once you start getting into the negotiations of contracts, that's 2885 02:15:20,760 --> 02:15:22,680 Speaker 10: all going to be held against you. So you get 2886 02:15:22,720 --> 02:15:25,560 Speaker 10: a little bit salty. My house also cost you playing 2887 02:15:25,600 --> 02:15:26,400 Speaker 10: time or a job. 2888 02:15:28,360 --> 02:15:33,400 Speaker 4: It will, And everybody, just look at the way you 2889 02:15:33,480 --> 02:15:35,920 Speaker 4: hand the reports of people wanting to go to Washington 2890 02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:37,960 Speaker 4: because of Jade and Daniels. Just look at the way 2891 02:15:38,000 --> 02:15:40,120 Speaker 4: they played. Just look at the different outlook of the 2892 02:15:40,160 --> 02:15:43,600 Speaker 4: franchise because of the quarterback. But what is the thing 2893 02:15:43,680 --> 02:15:46,440 Speaker 4: that Jaden Daniels has that some of the other quarterbacks 2894 02:15:46,440 --> 02:15:50,280 Speaker 4: didn't have coming in experience? We can say the same 2895 02:15:50,320 --> 02:15:53,320 Speaker 4: thing with Bo Nicks. Both of these guys entered the 2896 02:15:53,400 --> 02:15:58,080 Speaker 4: league with fifty five plus career starts, you know, like 2897 02:15:58,480 --> 02:16:01,880 Speaker 4: significant time on tape. As at the collegiate level, those 2898 02:16:01,920 --> 02:16:05,000 Speaker 4: reps matter. And then when you factor in what has 2899 02:16:05,040 --> 02:16:09,560 Speaker 4: been Jade and Daniel's secret sauce virtual reality, the way 2900 02:16:09,600 --> 02:16:12,200 Speaker 4: that he puts the oculus on and gets the extra 2901 02:16:12,240 --> 02:16:14,240 Speaker 4: reps in the morning, and when you talk to the 2902 02:16:14,240 --> 02:16:18,839 Speaker 4: people at LSU and how he just dove into virtual 2903 02:16:18,920 --> 02:16:21,440 Speaker 4: reality and the reps and he could do that why 2904 02:16:21,840 --> 02:16:23,880 Speaker 4: because he was a fifth or six year player. And 2905 02:16:23,880 --> 02:16:25,440 Speaker 4: you know what you do when you're in college for 2906 02:16:25,480 --> 02:16:29,520 Speaker 4: five or six years, hopefully you've already graduated fifth Do 2907 02:16:29,640 --> 02:16:31,280 Speaker 4: you know what that fifth or six year looks like? 2908 02:16:31,320 --> 02:16:34,080 Speaker 4: Mike Harmon, If you've been in college fifth football and 2909 02:16:34,120 --> 02:16:37,480 Speaker 4: you have one and you have one major, you're not 2910 02:16:37,560 --> 02:16:40,600 Speaker 4: double majoring, you're not in grad school. You're over there 2911 02:16:40,720 --> 02:16:44,160 Speaker 4: just easy, lazy boy doing it. Like, yeah, you can 2912 02:16:44,200 --> 02:16:48,080 Speaker 4: spend more time doing what studying football. That's the advantage 2913 02:16:48,120 --> 02:16:50,600 Speaker 4: of taking an older quarterback, much like bo Nix is 2914 02:16:50,640 --> 02:16:55,400 Speaker 4: having success now older quarterback Brock Purdy had instant success. 2915 02:16:55,640 --> 02:17:00,360 Speaker 4: Older quarterback more experience. That's what it really is. Big 2916 02:17:00,520 --> 02:17:03,720 Speaker 4: vest in the guys who play a lot in college. 2917 02:17:03,760 --> 02:17:05,800 Speaker 4: The reps matter, Time on task matters. 2918 02:17:06,040 --> 02:17:07,680 Speaker 1: See we like our microwave food. 2919 02:17:07,959 --> 02:17:10,879 Speaker 10: We like our microwave quarterbacks at Bucky Brooks where you 2920 02:17:10,879 --> 02:17:13,640 Speaker 10: find him on Twitter, find me over at Swollen Dome. 2921 02:17:13,720 --> 02:17:15,959 Speaker 10: As we get ready for Week nine in the National 2922 02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:19,600 Speaker 10: Football League, a couple of big matchups on the board, 2923 02:17:19,800 --> 02:17:21,959 Speaker 10: and we'll dive into a couple of them next here 2924 02:17:22,080 --> 02:17:26,039 Speaker 10: on Fox Sports Radio.

But some intriguing matchups for week 2951 02:18:31,840 --> 02:18:33,640 Speaker 10: nine one already in the book we talked about it. 2952 02:18:33,760 --> 02:18:36,760 Speaker 10: The Jets in Houston a little bit earlier. The Dallas 2953 02:18:36,800 --> 02:18:41,240 Speaker 10: Atlanta game stands out as the all right, let's see 2954 02:18:41,280 --> 02:18:44,920 Speaker 10: exactly what we are? The fact that Trevon digs after 2955 02:18:45,320 --> 02:18:47,760 Speaker 10: you know, the little media session he had, and the 2956 02:18:47,959 --> 02:18:50,280 Speaker 10: all right we'll make good on this. But you know 2957 02:18:50,400 --> 02:18:53,640 Speaker 10: clearly guys are reading and hearing everything being written about 2958 02:18:53,680 --> 02:18:56,879 Speaker 10: them in the locker room. Jerry Jones doing his weekly 2959 02:18:57,720 --> 02:19:00,920 Speaker 10: radio addresses is not helping things. He had that big 2960 02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:04,120 Speaker 10: statement about, well, I didn't expect this start. I'm like 2961 02:19:04,280 --> 02:19:08,080 Speaker 10: I think realistically from a record perspective, he could have bucky, 2962 02:19:08,160 --> 02:19:11,760 Speaker 10: but not that they'd be bludgeoned so soundly as they have, 2963 02:19:12,320 --> 02:19:14,680 Speaker 10: especially at home where they've been dismal. 2964 02:19:14,840 --> 02:19:16,199 Speaker 1: On a whole other level. 2965 02:19:19,200 --> 02:19:22,879 Speaker 4: Here's a thing. As a general manager, your job is 2966 02:19:22,920 --> 02:19:25,359 Speaker 4: to look at your team and to have a perspective 2967 02:19:25,400 --> 02:19:28,320 Speaker 4: of your team that is all that covers here and now, 2968 02:19:28,520 --> 02:19:30,400 Speaker 4: but also looks to the future in terms of what 2969 02:19:30,480 --> 02:19:33,200 Speaker 4: you think the team will be. Jerry Jones's job as 2970 02:19:33,200 --> 02:19:36,160 Speaker 4: a team builder is to fully know his roster, know 2971 02:19:36,280 --> 02:19:40,120 Speaker 4: the strengths to weaknesses, where they need to improve, what 2972 02:19:40,160 --> 02:19:44,000 Speaker 4: are the opportunities to improve, And every day he is 2973 02:19:44,000 --> 02:19:46,920 Speaker 4: supposed to examine the roster and see how can I improve. 2974 02:19:47,360 --> 02:19:51,279 Speaker 4: When he says that he is surprised by the results 2975 02:19:51,400 --> 02:19:53,280 Speaker 4: or looking at the roster, I don't know how that 2976 02:19:53,320 --> 02:19:58,120 Speaker 4: could be true. If he's honestly self critical of his 2977 02:19:58,240 --> 02:20:01,000 Speaker 4: team and what they done over the course of the 2978 02:20:01,040 --> 02:20:04,120 Speaker 4: off season and where they are every day for Jerry 2979 02:20:04,160 --> 02:20:05,880 Speaker 4: Jones to be able to say like, I am surprised. 2980 02:20:05,920 --> 02:20:08,400 Speaker 4: I didn't know that we would. Hey, dude, you lost 2981 02:20:08,400 --> 02:20:10,959 Speaker 4: a bunch of different people. You never addressed the running 2982 02:20:10,959 --> 02:20:13,760 Speaker 4: back position. You've thrown spare parts at it by getting 2983 02:20:13,760 --> 02:20:17,240 Speaker 4: Ezekiel Elliott, Dalvin Cook. You were hoping on dal Dale 2984 02:20:17,400 --> 02:20:20,840 Speaker 4: to developing those things. To me, hope is not a plan. 2985 02:20:21,320 --> 02:20:23,400 Speaker 4: You have to have a concrete plan for what you 2986 02:20:23,440 --> 02:20:25,800 Speaker 4: want to do and then a backup to that plan 2987 02:20:26,080 --> 02:20:28,480 Speaker 4: in case the first one goes awry. And when you 2988 02:20:28,480 --> 02:20:31,119 Speaker 4: look at their team saying Okay, we're gonna give Dak 2989 02:20:31,120 --> 02:20:33,400 Speaker 4: Prescott the money, Well let's look at the weapons on 2990 02:20:33,440 --> 02:20:38,440 Speaker 4: the outside. We got C D Lamb. Okay, if we. 2991 02:20:38,400 --> 02:20:41,840 Speaker 10: Got CD Lamb, Tober pops up zed like whack a 2992 02:20:41,879 --> 02:20:45,240 Speaker 10: ball once in a while, as does first pretty solid. 2993 02:20:45,280 --> 02:20:48,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, that your voice. This was a guy five 2994 02:20:48,720 --> 02:20:50,240 Speaker 1: years ago. 2995 02:20:50,320 --> 02:20:54,680 Speaker 4: Five years ago. Let's just look to Philadelphia and let's 2996 02:20:54,720 --> 02:20:58,600 Speaker 4: see what Jalen Hurts is working with on offense after 2997 02:20:58,640 --> 02:21:01,600 Speaker 4: they paid him. Oh A. J. Brown, Devonte Smith highly 2998 02:21:01,640 --> 02:21:04,080 Speaker 4: paid Bolts could share the mark he as number one receivers, 2999 02:21:04,320 --> 02:21:07,119 Speaker 4: say Kwan Barkley. Even though running back is important, philadelph 3000 02:21:07,200 --> 02:21:08,920 Speaker 4: Field compelled to go and get a running back that 3001 02:21:08,920 --> 02:21:10,959 Speaker 4: can change the game. So they got an RB one 3002 02:21:11,000 --> 02:21:14,240 Speaker 4: behind him making money. Best offensive line in football why 3003 02:21:14,320 --> 02:21:16,800 Speaker 4: because they always invest first and second round picks in 3004 02:21:16,840 --> 02:21:20,520 Speaker 4: the offensive line. I mean offensively, that is what an 3005 02:21:20,520 --> 02:21:22,880 Speaker 4: offense is supposed to look like. So for Jerry Jones 3006 02:21:22,920 --> 02:21:25,360 Speaker 4: to say, I can't believe that we're struggling like this, 3007 02:21:27,200 --> 02:21:30,240 Speaker 4: he's not doing his job, even though I could say 3008 02:21:30,280 --> 02:21:33,160 Speaker 4: whether he's qualified or not, he's not doing the job 3009 02:21:33,240 --> 02:21:37,320 Speaker 4: of a general manager. He's a owner playing fantasy football 3010 02:21:37,360 --> 02:21:39,640 Speaker 4: as opposed to a general manager really building the squad. 3011 02:21:39,800 --> 02:21:44,000 Speaker 10: I mean, you get delusional winning twelve games three straight years, 3012 02:21:44,120 --> 02:21:46,680 Speaker 10: regardless of what the playoff losses were. We thought maybe 3013 02:21:46,720 --> 02:21:50,040 Speaker 10: that would be the reality check of how just grossly 3014 02:21:50,160 --> 02:21:54,920 Speaker 10: unprepared they were, particularly defensively, where they ranked pretty well 3015 02:21:55,000 --> 02:21:58,240 Speaker 10: last year, right making big plays, Michael Parkson doing big thing, 3016 02:21:58,520 --> 02:22:01,440 Speaker 10: and obviously his injury doesn't help matters, but you're already 3017 02:22:01,879 --> 02:22:06,880 Speaker 10: down several weapons in the secondary. Yeah, Diggs came back, 3018 02:22:06,959 --> 02:22:09,600 Speaker 10: Bland gets hurt, and you didn't add there wasn't an 3019 02:22:09,640 --> 02:22:13,720 Speaker 10: added process. Ezekiel Elliott's being left home because of disciplinary reason. 3020 02:22:13,840 --> 02:22:16,480 Speaker 10: So can't wait to see what more of stories come 3021 02:22:16,520 --> 02:22:19,039 Speaker 10: out of there, because obviously he did his chirping in 3022 02:22:19,080 --> 02:22:21,720 Speaker 10: the press because he was mad about opportunities, and then 3023 02:22:21,720 --> 02:22:26,320 Speaker 10: he barely falls forward, right, I mean Dalvin Cook Reclamation project. 3024 02:22:27,320 --> 02:22:29,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, you got Dalvin Cook directly bention project. You have 3025 02:22:29,520 --> 02:22:32,160 Speaker 4: Ezekiel Elliott, who we all thought, oh, the homecoming is 3026 02:22:32,200 --> 02:22:34,480 Speaker 4: going to be so great. He proved to us in 3027 02:22:34,520 --> 02:22:37,080 Speaker 4: New England that he still has some juice left. And 3028 02:22:37,120 --> 02:22:39,520 Speaker 4: then you get the reports. Jamee Slater reported as sources 3029 02:22:39,520 --> 02:22:44,760 Speaker 4: had told her that he's been distracted all year, multiple tarties, 3030 02:22:45,440 --> 02:22:48,199 Speaker 4: late for a meeting on Friday, which was the final straw, 3031 02:22:48,640 --> 02:22:52,640 Speaker 4: absences galore, all of those things. Yeah, Zeke, you don't 3032 02:22:52,640 --> 02:22:55,920 Speaker 4: show up, you don't play like. That's what has happened. 3033 02:22:56,000 --> 02:23:01,920 Speaker 4: And when you have that, it becomes problematic. And that's 3034 02:23:01,920 --> 02:23:05,000 Speaker 4: why the Cowboys can't get it done. And all of 3035 02:23:05,040 --> 02:23:07,440 Speaker 4: the heat is going to follow on Mike McCarthy. They'll 3036 02:23:07,440 --> 02:23:09,080 Speaker 4: fire him at the year and say, hey, he didn't 3037 02:23:09,080 --> 02:23:12,480 Speaker 4: get a job done. They'll throw to criticism at Dak Prescott. 3038 02:23:12,680 --> 02:23:15,040 Speaker 4: But what I'm saying is before you point to the team, 3039 02:23:15,440 --> 02:23:17,680 Speaker 4: you better point to the front office. And the front 3040 02:23:17,720 --> 02:23:21,440 Speaker 4: office starts and ends with Jerry Jones and his medaling 3041 02:23:21,520 --> 02:23:24,000 Speaker 4: or his controlling, or him doing his job as the 3042 02:23:24,040 --> 02:23:24,640 Speaker 4: general manager. 3043 02:23:24,680 --> 02:23:24,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 3044 02:23:24,920 --> 02:23:28,760 Speaker 10: Fortunately for fantasy owner Ceedee, Lamb is now drifted into 3045 02:23:28,760 --> 02:23:32,720 Speaker 10: the Rob Gronkowski's Travis Kelcey range of how is that 3046 02:23:32,720 --> 02:23:35,440 Speaker 10: guy so wide open when he's clearly their number one target? 3047 02:23:35,879 --> 02:23:39,200 Speaker 10: But that's fine. Fantasy owners will take it, and Dak 3048 02:23:39,320 --> 02:23:41,080 Speaker 10: just has to make the best of what he can 3049 02:23:41,680 --> 02:23:47,080 Speaker 10: behind what is a very porous squad, to say the least. 3050 02:23:47,320 --> 02:23:50,280 Speaker 10: We talked briefly in passing a little bit of Lamar Jacks, 3051 02:23:50,320 --> 02:23:53,160 Speaker 10: a little bit of Bonnicks talking about their histories on 3052 02:23:53,879 --> 02:23:58,440 Speaker 10: the college resumes and coming into the pros Denver, one 3053 02:23:58,480 --> 02:24:00,879 Speaker 10: of those smith that I talked about Friday, you know, 3054 02:24:01,120 --> 02:24:03,520 Speaker 10: doing a little bit of the look ahead and with 3055 02:24:03,640 --> 02:24:06,080 Speaker 10: Sean Payton the job that he's done. Now, obviously it 3056 02:24:06,080 --> 02:24:08,240 Speaker 10: doesn't happen without vance Joseph. You and I did this 3057 02:24:08,280 --> 02:24:11,160 Speaker 10: early this year as Minnesota was starting to roll with 3058 02:24:11,240 --> 02:24:14,920 Speaker 10: Kevin O'Connell. It doesn't work if Brian Flores's squad isn't 3059 02:24:14,920 --> 02:24:17,440 Speaker 10: doing their part, you know, so all the way down 3060 02:24:17,440 --> 02:24:21,160 Speaker 10: the line, dan Quinn, If Kingsbury's not making some magic 3061 02:24:21,200 --> 02:24:23,920 Speaker 10: with the offense, it all has to click and pull together. 3062 02:24:24,000 --> 02:24:26,080 Speaker 10: But for Denver, you know, they've had a good run 3063 02:24:26,120 --> 02:24:29,080 Speaker 10: in boon Nicks, while the passing game it still looks 3064 02:24:29,120 --> 02:24:32,000 Speaker 10: like they don't really trust each other a lot and 3065 02:24:32,080 --> 02:24:34,600 Speaker 10: how deep they can get in terms of their bag. 3066 02:24:34,760 --> 02:24:37,000 Speaker 10: They've got a really good opportunity here against what has 3067 02:24:37,040 --> 02:24:41,320 Speaker 10: been here to for pathetic Baltimore Ravens defense. As good 3068 02:24:41,320 --> 02:24:43,800 Speaker 10: as the offense is, you could put all those superlatives 3069 02:24:44,720 --> 02:24:46,360 Speaker 10: negatively on the other side of the ball. 3070 02:24:48,560 --> 02:24:50,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, on the other side of the ball at the 3071 02:24:50,480 --> 02:24:54,360 Speaker 4: defense has really struggled, right Zach Or, who is first 3072 02:24:54,400 --> 02:24:56,840 Speaker 4: time defensive coordinator, a guy just fresh off the field 3073 02:24:56,920 --> 02:24:59,480 Speaker 4: not too long ago, is having a tough time adapting 3074 02:24:59,520 --> 02:25:01,800 Speaker 4: to be in the and look, it's a big job, 3075 02:25:01,840 --> 02:25:05,040 Speaker 4: particularly for a team that traditionally is a top defense. 3076 02:25:05,200 --> 02:25:08,720 Speaker 4: Expectations are high. They just haven't delivered. They're struggling on 3077 02:25:08,760 --> 02:25:11,000 Speaker 4: that side of the ball, and that could be the 3078 02:25:11,040 --> 02:25:13,680 Speaker 4: albatross that keeps them from being the team that everybody 3079 02:25:13,720 --> 02:25:16,200 Speaker 4: expects them to be. Which is one of the final 3080 02:25:16,240 --> 02:25:19,080 Speaker 4: two in the AFC, the team that potentially knocks off 3081 02:25:19,080 --> 02:25:22,039 Speaker 4: against the Chiefs and ends their efforts for being a 3082 02:25:22,080 --> 02:25:24,600 Speaker 4: three peter. They have all the goods on offense to 3083 02:25:24,640 --> 02:25:27,720 Speaker 4: do it, but defensively they're lagging. Can they fix it? 3084 02:25:28,480 --> 02:25:31,000 Speaker 4: Don't know. Dean pieces in the building, trying to offer 3085 02:25:31,080 --> 02:25:34,280 Speaker 4: some mentorship, trying to help and those things. We'll see 3086 02:25:34,280 --> 02:25:37,760 Speaker 4: if that is able to help them get over the top. 3087 02:25:37,840 --> 02:25:42,959 Speaker 4: But this is a team that is underachieving on defense 3088 02:25:43,080 --> 02:25:46,000 Speaker 4: and it's a problem. And if they don't fix it, man, 3089 02:25:46,080 --> 02:25:48,600 Speaker 4: they can go down. And today is a dangerous game 3090 02:25:48,720 --> 02:25:51,120 Speaker 4: for them because I'm telling you, man, both Nicks is 3091 02:25:51,120 --> 02:25:54,480 Speaker 4: playing pretty good. Sean Payton is a really good coach. 3092 02:25:54,760 --> 02:25:57,320 Speaker 4: He's figuring it out. And this ain't an easy win. 3093 02:25:57,360 --> 02:25:59,039 Speaker 4: It's not an easy win for the Baltimore. 3094 02:25:58,680 --> 02:26:01,320 Speaker 10: Ric Now giving him is Flowers because I've certainly been 3095 02:26:01,360 --> 02:26:04,600 Speaker 10: critical guys like him, McCarthy. Whatever we trade on the Hey, 3096 02:26:04,600 --> 02:26:07,000 Speaker 10: they won a Super Bowl. It's a long time ago. 3097 02:26:07,080 --> 02:26:11,960 Speaker 10: A lot of years have passed in between, with some successes, 3098 02:26:12,040 --> 02:26:15,400 Speaker 10: some not the fact that you got twelve wins a 3099 02:26:15,480 --> 02:26:19,040 Speaker 10: year McCarthy, And he gets propped up and then they 3100 02:26:19,080 --> 02:26:22,320 Speaker 10: go and get thumped by the teams that matter. Right, 3101 02:26:22,480 --> 02:26:25,320 Speaker 10: So it's it's that kind of discussion year to year. 3102 02:26:25,360 --> 02:26:28,119 Speaker 10: And for Peyton, I don't know that you know, he's 3103 02:26:28,160 --> 02:26:30,800 Speaker 10: anywhere close to what he wants to run his offense 3104 02:26:30,840 --> 02:26:34,160 Speaker 10: fully here disjoin it. But Baltimore is a nine and 3105 02:26:34,160 --> 02:26:36,600 Speaker 10: a half point favorite. A defense will give up some 3106 02:26:36,640 --> 02:26:41,119 Speaker 10: plays today. Give me Denver all day with that number. 3107 02:26:41,720 --> 02:26:43,960 Speaker 4: That is a big number for a team that is 3108 02:26:44,400 --> 02:26:45,840 Speaker 4: leaking oil. 3109 02:26:46,840 --> 02:26:48,600 Speaker 1: And Denver could placed it. 3110 02:26:48,680 --> 02:26:52,080 Speaker 10: Talked about Man's Joseph squad right like on that side 3111 02:26:52,120 --> 02:26:54,039 Speaker 10: of the ball, they're playing some pretty good football. So 3112 02:26:54,480 --> 02:26:56,760 Speaker 10: totals forty six and a half, but that nine and 3113 02:26:56,760 --> 02:27:01,520 Speaker 10: a half represents the yes, the exit. 3114 02:27:03,480 --> 02:27:06,600 Speaker 1: What am I trying to say? Spit out the words harmon, uh, 3115 02:27:06,680 --> 02:27:10,760 Speaker 1: the idea and a lack of respect for what they're doing. 3116 02:27:10,959 --> 02:27:13,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, with the lack of respect that they have 3117 02:27:13,440 --> 02:27:17,039 Speaker 4: for a team that is trying to get it done 3118 02:27:17,040 --> 02:27:19,560 Speaker 4: and do it at a high level. Yeah, that's man, 3119 02:27:19,600 --> 02:27:21,400 Speaker 4: that is a problem. Yeah. 3120 02:27:21,440 --> 02:27:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I know it's a home team, home game 3121 02:27:23,480 --> 02:27:24,280 Speaker 1: in all, but come on. 3122 02:27:24,200 --> 02:27:28,440 Speaker 4: Now, one hundred percent, I mean, what like what like 3123 02:27:28,520 --> 02:27:30,400 Speaker 4: what are we talking about? Like this is one where 3124 02:27:30,400 --> 02:27:32,480 Speaker 4: they got to fix they got to get this, they 3125 02:27:32,480 --> 02:27:35,240 Speaker 4: got to get this right, because yeah, that is that 3126 02:27:35,360 --> 02:27:39,480 Speaker 4: is not what I would expect from UH. I would 3127 02:27:39,480 --> 02:27:42,120 Speaker 4: expect this to be a much closer game than a 3128 02:27:42,200 --> 02:27:42,920 Speaker 4: nine point spread. 3129 02:27:43,000 --> 02:27:44,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, we'll talk about the chaos and then we got 3130 02:27:44,720 --> 02:27:46,440 Speaker 10: a couple more matchups we want to get to as 3131 02:27:46,480 --> 02:27:47,160 Speaker 10: we roll through. 3132 02:27:47,280 --> 02:27:48,400 Speaker 1: But a reminder that. 3133 02:27:48,560 --> 02:27:52,400 Speaker 10: Coming up here, starting at ten am Eastern, seven o'clock Pacific, 3134 02:27:52,560 --> 02:27:54,840 Speaker 10: here at Fox Sports Radio, every Sunday, you've got Countdown 3135 02:27:54,920 --> 02:27:58,120 Speaker 10: to kick Off presented by Bet mgm, Bryan Know, Jeff Schwartz, 3136 02:27:58,120 --> 02:28:01,200 Speaker 10: Professional Better, Bill Krachenberger.

And maybe all right, 3186 02:30:34,440 --> 02:30:36,040 Speaker 10: we hold you out and butt you in bubble wrap 3187 02:30:36,080 --> 02:30:37,080 Speaker 10: because we're gonna trade. 3188 02:30:36,920 --> 02:30:37,720 Speaker 1: You before Tuesday. 3189 02:30:38,920 --> 02:30:42,280 Speaker 4: Somebody might be dead, like Adam Sale, it's gonna be true. Yeah, 3190 02:30:42,440 --> 02:30:44,440 Speaker 4: like some of that might be. But here's my thing. 3191 02:30:44,440 --> 02:30:46,600 Speaker 4: Would you care a lot of panthers like you're trading 3192 02:30:46,640 --> 02:30:47,959 Speaker 4: to wait everybody like. 3193 02:30:48,240 --> 02:30:52,000 Speaker 1: For what and to say, hey, Bryce Young, stay on 3194 02:30:52,080 --> 02:30:56,160 Speaker 1: the field. We're gonna take all this away. 3195 02:30:56,760 --> 02:30:59,240 Speaker 10: You were already struggling when we had a full compliment 3196 02:30:59,280 --> 02:30:59,800 Speaker 10: of players. 3197 02:31:00,080 --> 02:31:01,360 Speaker 1: But now let's strip this down. 3198 02:31:02,440 --> 02:31:05,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's that's bad. That's bad. 3199 02:31:06,280 --> 02:31:09,480 Speaker 10: Not exactly doing Dave can all as any favors in 3200 02:31:09,520 --> 02:31:10,800 Speaker 10: that process either. 3201 02:31:10,720 --> 02:31:15,360 Speaker 4: Not only that, and if it's coming from over over 3202 02:31:15,440 --> 02:31:17,480 Speaker 4: his head, right, if it's coming from the owner, right, 3203 02:31:17,760 --> 02:31:19,920 Speaker 4: let's get rid of everybody whatever, Like just know it 3204 02:31:19,920 --> 02:31:23,680 Speaker 4: has a direct impact on the quarterback. And you got 3205 02:31:23,760 --> 02:31:26,920 Speaker 4: rid of Deontay Johnson. If you now move Adam Thielen, 3206 02:31:27,280 --> 02:31:30,119 Speaker 4: who do you expect Bryce Young to throw to and 3207 02:31:30,280 --> 02:31:32,440 Speaker 4: we can talk about, oh, he's a bad pick, he 3208 02:31:32,480 --> 02:31:35,480 Speaker 4: hasn't done this and that. Yeah, granted, but guess what, man, 3209 02:31:35,560 --> 02:31:38,560 Speaker 4: you're married to the money that you committed to him, 3210 02:31:38,800 --> 02:31:41,920 Speaker 4: he is technically going to be there. And the thing 3211 02:31:42,000 --> 02:31:43,480 Speaker 4: that you don't want to see. And here's why you 3212 02:31:43,520 --> 02:31:46,280 Speaker 4: have a credibility issue if you're the Carolina Panthers. We 3213 02:31:46,360 --> 02:31:49,119 Speaker 4: have seen Sam Donald and Baker Mayfield come through there. 3214 02:31:49,800 --> 02:31:51,879 Speaker 4: Both of those guys are playing well in their new 3215 02:31:51,920 --> 02:31:56,680 Speaker 4: respective locations. So maybe it ain't them, maybe it's you. 3216 02:31:57,120 --> 02:31:59,000 Speaker 4: That's what the Panthers have to look at. Are we 3217 02:31:59,160 --> 02:32:04,360 Speaker 4: doing enough to give right guys the best opportunity to succeed? Uh? 3218 02:32:04,720 --> 02:32:05,400 Speaker 4: At quarterback? 3219 02:32:05,920 --> 02:32:09,199 Speaker 1: Bryce Young and Xavier Legette. Wonder twin powers. 3220 02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:11,120 Speaker 4: Activate wonder twin power. 3221 02:32:11,280 --> 02:32:13,720 Speaker 10: I mean, you know, when Brooks potentially coming back, do 3222 02:32:13,760 --> 02:32:18,160 Speaker 10: you trade Schuba Hobbard, see if see if you can't 3223 02:32:18,160 --> 02:32:21,320 Speaker 10: get Dallas to put a bunch of stuff together or 3224 02:32:21,400 --> 02:32:22,600 Speaker 10: one of these other squads. 3225 02:32:22,720 --> 02:32:25,360 Speaker 4: I mean yeah, but then then my thing is, but okay, 3226 02:32:25,400 --> 02:32:27,040 Speaker 4: so we're gonna have a bunch of picks, and we've 3227 02:32:27,040 --> 02:32:29,560 Speaker 4: proven that we can't pick. You had the number one 3228 02:32:29,600 --> 02:32:32,560 Speaker 4: overall pick. We traded to get the number one over. 3229 02:32:32,480 --> 02:32:34,519 Speaker 1: Up pick and more compensation. 3230 02:32:35,360 --> 02:32:38,440 Speaker 4: Right, So I don't know, man, I say it's a 3231 02:32:38,600 --> 02:32:44,080 Speaker 4: it's an organizational problem where they need to reset and 3232 02:32:44,160 --> 02:32:46,560 Speaker 4: just start. Oh so you can't blow it up and 3233 02:32:46,560 --> 02:32:48,039 Speaker 4: start from scratch, but you got to start from scratch 3234 02:32:48,120 --> 02:32:49,360 Speaker 4: and just say, Hey, who do we want to be 3235 02:32:49,840 --> 02:32:51,600 Speaker 4: and what do we want to what do we wanted 3236 02:32:51,600 --> 02:32:54,240 Speaker 4: to look like? And much like I would say this 3237 02:32:54,360 --> 02:32:57,520 Speaker 4: if it's s C or any team, Man, what do 3238 02:32:57,600 --> 02:32:59,240 Speaker 4: we want to look like? Let's not worry about the 3239 02:32:59,240 --> 02:33:01,840 Speaker 4: school board. I'm more worried about how it looks what 3240 02:33:01,879 --> 02:33:04,200 Speaker 4: do we play like? And right now I don't see 3241 02:33:04,200 --> 02:33:06,720 Speaker 4: the identity of the Carolina Panthers coming through because I 3242 02:33:06,720 --> 02:33:10,280 Speaker 4: don't know if they confidently know what kind of team 3243 02:33:10,320 --> 02:33:10,880 Speaker 4: they want to have. 3244 02:33:11,280 --> 02:33:14,400 Speaker 10: We'll say this, since you know, Tepper gives us so 3245 02:33:14,520 --> 02:33:16,680 Speaker 10: much on the negative and it's a Sunday morning, I'm 3246 02:33:16,720 --> 02:33:19,360 Speaker 10: trying to find the positivity and the light. He did 3247 02:33:19,400 --> 02:33:21,440 Speaker 10: a lot of stuff to help for hurricane relief. They 3248 02:33:21,440 --> 02:33:24,920 Speaker 10: had a huge concert that he donated all sorts of stuff. 3249 02:33:25,040 --> 02:33:27,200 Speaker 10: Eric Church, Luke Colmbs doesn't mean he can run a 3250 02:33:27,200 --> 02:33:29,440 Speaker 10: football team but it shows that there is a bit 3251 02:33:29,440 --> 02:33:32,520 Speaker 10: of a heart beating there which has been questioned in 3252 02:33:32,560 --> 02:33:33,920 Speaker 10: the past. So I want to give him a little 3253 02:33:33,920 --> 02:33:35,280 Speaker 10: bit of love for what he was able to do. 3254 02:33:35,400 --> 02:33:38,480 Speaker 10: They raised nearly twenty five million dollars off of all 3255 02:33:38,520 --> 02:33:42,680 Speaker 10: of the tickets and concessions and parking and everything, everything 3256 02:33:42,760 --> 02:33:45,320 Speaker 10: going to the charity. He's picking up the taxes on stuff, 3257 02:33:45,440 --> 02:33:48,200 Speaker 10: all of that. To say, you know, find some light 3258 02:33:49,280 --> 02:33:53,320 Speaker 10: even where you're raising some questions, as you can at 3259 02:33:53,320 --> 02:33:55,480 Speaker 10: Bucky Brooks is where you find him in the Twitter verse. 3260 02:33:55,520 --> 02:33:58,879 Speaker 10: Find me over at Swollen Dome. Still a couple more 3261 02:33:58,920 --> 02:34:01,240 Speaker 10: games to get to look, maybe another look at the 3262 02:34:01,280 --> 02:34:05,959 Speaker 10: trade deadline, and certainly Jacks Jacksonville Philadelphia is one of 3263 02:34:05,959 --> 02:34:09,120 Speaker 10: the games of the day that has my rapt attention. 3264 02:34:09,600 --> 02:34:12,360 Speaker 10: Why because Bucky Brooks is there, No, actually, because it 3265 02:34:12,440 --> 02:34:15,080 Speaker 10: has big implications for both sides. 3266 02:34:15,120 --> 02:34:16,039 Speaker 1: We'll do that next year. 3267 02:34:15,959 --> 02:34:20,760 Speaker 10: On Fox Welcome back in Fox Football Sunday, Fox Sports Radio, 3268 02:34:20,800 --> 02:34:25,879 Speaker 10: Forthetirac dot Com Studios Mike Garment alongside Bucky Brooks as 3269 02:34:25,879 --> 02:34:30,400 Speaker 10: we wrap up this morning's broadcast and get ready for 3270 02:34:30,440 --> 02:34:32,680 Speaker 10: countdown to kickoff coming up about ten minutes from now here. 3271 02:34:32,800 --> 02:34:36,800 Speaker 10: Fox Sports Radio the iHeartRadio app four hundred plus affiliateationwide 3272 02:34:36,879 --> 02:34:40,360 Speaker 10: Serrus XM eighty three and has always the voice inside 3273 02:34:40,360 --> 02:34:40,800 Speaker 10: your head. 3274 02:34:41,000 --> 02:34:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you always. 3275 02:34:43,560 --> 02:34:45,520 Speaker 10: But if we look at the Slate, Bucky, I mean, 3276 02:34:45,600 --> 02:34:47,680 Speaker 10: one of the games of the day, they're honoring Shady 3277 02:34:47,720 --> 02:34:52,080 Speaker 10: McCoy there in Philadelphia as the Jaguars come to town. We 3278 02:34:52,160 --> 02:34:56,080 Speaker 10: talked about the Cam Robinson deal. Reports going that Christian 3279 02:34:56,200 --> 02:34:59,680 Speaker 10: Kirk was supposed to be a member of the Pittsburgh 3280 02:34:59,680 --> 02:35:03,560 Speaker 10: Steam before his injury. Speedy recovery for him. One of 3281 02:35:03,640 --> 02:35:06,960 Speaker 10: the fantasy darlings for us and Ninjas that we had 3282 02:35:07,000 --> 02:35:09,400 Speaker 10: for a couple of years here on the program. But 3283 02:35:09,760 --> 02:35:12,800 Speaker 10: do you expect them to be active anymore? You know 3284 02:35:13,200 --> 02:35:17,000 Speaker 10: as you look at what the season had holds for Jacksonville. 3285 02:35:18,400 --> 02:35:21,240 Speaker 4: Uh, you know, I don't. I don't think so. I 3286 02:35:21,240 --> 02:35:24,039 Speaker 4: think this is a team that look, let's let's be honest. 3287 02:35:24,160 --> 02:35:31,840 Speaker 4: Everybody is under evaluation, coaches, front office, players. When you 3288 02:35:31,879 --> 02:35:35,480 Speaker 4: have a situation like that, you had great expectations going 3289 02:35:35,560 --> 02:35:37,959 Speaker 4: into it and you haven't gotten the results that you 3290 02:35:38,040 --> 02:35:43,080 Speaker 4: wanted out of it. Yeah, anything is on the table today. 3291 02:35:43,120 --> 02:35:44,560 Speaker 4: When when I look at the team and I think 3292 02:35:44,600 --> 02:35:48,160 Speaker 4: about how shorthanded they are at wide receiver. You've run 3293 02:35:48,240 --> 02:35:51,320 Speaker 4: the possibility of Tim Jones and Parker Washington starting. You 3294 02:35:51,360 --> 02:35:54,760 Speaker 4: have the top three wide receivers on the sideline, Christian 3295 02:35:54,800 --> 02:35:57,720 Speaker 4: Kirk on IR, Gabe Davis dealing with the injury, Brian 3296 02:35:57,760 --> 02:36:00,320 Speaker 4: Thomas Junior dealing with an injury. That's a lot to 3297 02:36:00,360 --> 02:36:03,000 Speaker 4: deal with. Gabe Davis is someone that you got in 3298 02:36:03,080 --> 02:36:05,320 Speaker 4: free agency to think that he would be a number 3299 02:36:05,320 --> 02:36:09,600 Speaker 4: two wide receiver. Potentially hasn't played up to expectation. To me, 3300 02:36:09,800 --> 02:36:11,920 Speaker 4: this is a team that is teetering on the brink. 3301 02:36:12,560 --> 02:36:16,240 Speaker 4: They're teetering on the brink of maybe a major overhaul 3302 02:36:16,280 --> 02:36:18,880 Speaker 4: and upheaval if this thing doesn't turn around. And so 3303 02:36:19,160 --> 02:36:21,240 Speaker 4: I think you play everybody. I don't think you're active 3304 02:36:21,280 --> 02:36:23,680 Speaker 4: at a trade deadline because whatever you get on the 3305 02:36:23,720 --> 02:36:26,520 Speaker 4: trade market is going to be a short term fix 3306 02:36:26,600 --> 02:36:29,480 Speaker 4: and whatever you give up weekends, what is already a 3307 02:36:29,520 --> 02:36:32,360 Speaker 4: weekend squad. So I expect them to stand pat They 3308 02:36:32,440 --> 02:36:34,560 Speaker 4: got to play better and perform better because right now 3309 02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:38,000 Speaker 4: everyone's being looked at, everyone's being evaluated, and how you 3310 02:36:38,040 --> 02:36:40,360 Speaker 4: perform going forward will determined if you continue to be 3311 02:36:40,879 --> 02:36:42,000 Speaker 4: a Jaguar going forward. 3312 02:36:42,080 --> 02:36:45,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, going through For those that haven't followed it nationally, right, 3313 02:36:45,959 --> 02:36:46,520 Speaker 10: you just look. 3314 02:36:46,400 --> 02:36:47,279 Speaker 1: At wins losses. 3315 02:36:47,520 --> 02:36:49,520 Speaker 10: They've been in a bunch of these games in the 3316 02:36:49,560 --> 02:36:52,279 Speaker 10: fourth quarter being the undoing as. 3317 02:36:52,120 --> 02:36:53,080 Speaker 1: You well well know. 3318 02:36:53,200 --> 02:36:58,080 Speaker 10: There Bucky AFC East battle Miami Buffalo one of the 3319 02:36:58,120 --> 02:37:02,000 Speaker 10: other intriguing matchups to us there, so the expectations that 3320 02:37:02,040 --> 02:37:04,880 Speaker 10: we get some fireworks forty nine and a half the total. 3321 02:37:05,160 --> 02:37:09,440 Speaker 10: Buffalo favored by six in this one, but really curious 3322 02:37:09,480 --> 02:37:12,879 Speaker 10: to see the offense eight chan far more active a 3323 02:37:12,920 --> 02:37:15,959 Speaker 10: week ago, and you started to see some semblance of 3324 02:37:16,000 --> 02:37:18,720 Speaker 10: the Miami offense that we remember we did it for 3325 02:37:18,760 --> 02:37:22,160 Speaker 10: the fantasy purposes, and we were talking, here's all the 3326 02:37:22,200 --> 02:37:25,560 Speaker 10: things they hadn't done since week one going into week eight. 3327 02:37:25,840 --> 02:37:30,080 Speaker 10: Can they go to Buffalo and win this one? 3328 02:37:31,879 --> 02:37:35,200 Speaker 4: That's tough man. Buffalo's good, Buffalo's real good, and I 3329 02:37:35,200 --> 02:37:37,640 Speaker 4: feel like they are kind of catching their stride as 3330 02:37:37,680 --> 02:37:39,720 Speaker 4: a Super Bowl contender. I don't think they can go 3331 02:37:39,720 --> 02:37:43,959 Speaker 4: to Buffalo and win. Buffalo is just too good. They 3332 02:37:44,040 --> 02:37:47,560 Speaker 4: found their way and it may be competitive. I think 3333 02:37:47,600 --> 02:37:49,680 Speaker 4: the Bills are the team that we're talking about that 3334 02:37:49,840 --> 02:37:52,200 Speaker 4: is kind of under the raider, not under a but 3335 02:37:52,280 --> 02:37:54,920 Speaker 4: just kind of out of the main conversation that could 3336 02:37:54,959 --> 02:37:56,440 Speaker 4: jump in the mix and end up being the most 3337 02:37:56,480 --> 02:37:59,480 Speaker 4: formidable opponent for the can't sit the Chiefs in their 3338 02:37:59,480 --> 02:37:59,879 Speaker 4: effort to. 3339 02:37:59,800 --> 02:38:04,600 Speaker 10: Three yeah curiosity as they continue to integrate Cooper coming 3340 02:38:05,080 --> 02:38:09,279 Speaker 10: in trade and look the offense starting to find its dride. 3341 02:38:09,320 --> 02:38:12,879 Speaker 10: Defense got through some of those early attrition issues that 3342 02:38:12,920 --> 02:38:16,240 Speaker 10: they had to get ready for this next phase. Any 3343 02:38:16,280 --> 02:38:19,080 Speaker 10: other game on the schedule that you know, outside of 3344 02:38:19,160 --> 02:38:22,080 Speaker 10: your own that has your rapt attention, that you just say, 3345 02:38:22,280 --> 02:38:24,080 Speaker 10: you know, this is where I want to, you know, 3346 02:38:24,160 --> 02:38:26,160 Speaker 10: settle in for three hours. 3347 02:38:27,080 --> 02:38:29,040 Speaker 4: It's funny because I would normally say the Monday night 3348 02:38:29,080 --> 02:38:31,480 Speaker 4: game with Kansas City because I'm amazed at what they've 3349 02:38:31,480 --> 02:38:35,240 Speaker 4: been able to do. They've changed their style, but yet 3350 02:38:35,240 --> 02:38:37,800 Speaker 4: they've won twelve games in a row during the regular season. 3351 02:38:38,040 --> 02:38:40,200 Speaker 4: All eys have to be on Detroit and Greenberry Bag. 3352 02:38:40,440 --> 02:38:43,200 Speaker 4: This is a battle of the heavyweights, right. The Detroit 3353 02:38:43,240 --> 02:38:46,120 Speaker 4: lines are the heavyweights. They didn't play well against the 3354 02:38:46,120 --> 02:38:48,720 Speaker 4: Tennessee Titans, but put I mean a burger up on 3355 02:38:48,840 --> 02:38:52,240 Speaker 4: them without really trying. So now a better effort, a 3356 02:38:52,280 --> 02:38:56,199 Speaker 4: better performance against a Green Bay Packers team could be fireworks, 3357 02:38:56,240 --> 02:38:57,840 Speaker 4: and then the Green Bay Packers are just as good. 3358 02:38:57,879 --> 02:39:00,080 Speaker 4: All the criticism that went to Brian Goodacus and those 3359 02:39:00,120 --> 02:39:02,440 Speaker 4: guys for the way they built the team, they have 3360 02:39:02,520 --> 02:39:05,439 Speaker 4: the last laugh. This is a team that is well constructed. 3361 02:39:05,480 --> 02:39:08,680 Speaker 4: First round is about on the defense. Malik willis playing 3362 02:39:08,720 --> 02:39:10,560 Speaker 4: like an All Star, the one that the Tennessee Titans 3363 02:39:10,600 --> 02:39:12,840 Speaker 4: are like, who is that guy? That's the game to watch. 3364 02:39:13,000 --> 02:39:15,480 Speaker 10: Yeah, as we look at this one, you got Detroit 3365 02:39:15,520 --> 02:39:17,320 Speaker 10: three or three and a half, depending on where you 3366 02:39:17,400 --> 02:39:22,080 Speaker 10: got it. Game time temperature, you're looking at fifty degrees 3367 02:39:22,360 --> 02:39:26,520 Speaker 10: and all sorts of precipitation. Good times weather back in 3368 02:39:26,560 --> 02:39:29,800 Speaker 10: the NFL. He's Bucky on Mike Countdown to kickoff his 3369 02:39:29,879 --> 02:39:30,960 Speaker 10: next on Fox.
