Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's our two on this Friday.
Speaker 2: It's a meat Friday at that and it is special
Speaker 2: today Pigs in a blanket, beef, chili, bread, bulls and cornbread.
Speaker 2: Who has it better than we do? Lot stat of
Speaker 2: the Day is always brought to you by Panini America,
Speaker 2: the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. It
Speaker 2: is available. Take advantage of this because I don't know

Speaker 2: this morning for the first time. Early review say the
Speaker 2: flavor's outstanding. All second that it is awesome. So Halapano
Speaker 2: Lime Moonshine available Danpatrick dot com. Poll question from our
Speaker 2: one Seaton and what are we going to go with
Speaker 2: our two?
Speaker 3: We got a few of them up there. Let's see
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson is more awesome or frustrating?
Speaker 2: Right now?
Speaker 3: Sixty one percent of the audience say he's more frustrating
Speaker 3: than awesome. Okay, which is interesting. I get that though,
Speaker 3: I get that Should the NFL play games on Friday night?
Speaker 4: No way?
Speaker 2: Or sure?
Speaker 5: Why not?
Speaker 3: That one's at sixty five percent say no way, Okay,
Speaker 3: hands off Friday night.
Speaker 5: I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I still like high school football to
Speaker 2: be able to have that night. Absolutely, yeah, I think
Speaker 2: that's really important. Now they wouldn't be able to have
Speaker 2: this game the second week of September, so it's the
Speaker 2: first week you can get by the second week. It
Speaker 2: says that there's actually is it a law that's in place, PAULI.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a sports law from nineteen sixty one, and
Speaker 6: it appears that this year was specifically a loophole. The
Speaker 6: sixth Friday. The sixth is the first Friday, so first
Speaker 6: and the NFL season has started on Thursday. This doesn't
Speaker 6: look like it will happen again for many years.
Speaker 2: Okay, but you also have the game streaming on Peacock.
Speaker 2: That's the only place that you can get it. By
Speaker 2: the way, thank you for downloading the app to watch
Speaker 2: this program. Eight seven seven to three DP show Email
Speaker 2: Adter Sdpadanpatrick dot Com, Twitter handle a DP show. It
Speaker 2: is interesting though that a majority of the people find
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson frustrating. I can I can see that as
Speaker 2: the defense can find him frustrating. And if you're a
Speaker 2: fan of Lamar Jackson. It could be frustrating, but he's
Speaker 2: also unique. He's going to end up with over eight
Speaker 2: thousand rushing yards probably in his career. He's twenty seven now.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's a great stat to have,
Speaker 2: but John Harball was going for two if that was
Speaker 2: ruled a touchdown. They were going for two. So you
Speaker 2: got to start, I believe at the three yard line.
Speaker 2: This is what you want in that scenario. I got
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, and I got a couple
Speaker 2: of really good tight ends, so you know, pick your poison.
Speaker 2: Am I using one for decoy? But it's three yards out?
Speaker 2: They were going for two lining up for two if
Speaker 2: that call was going to be good. Here is Lamar
Speaker 2: Jackson after the game talking about the near touchdown.
Speaker 7: I thought I was the touchdown though. He was just
Speaker 7: opening and I've seen thirty two and twenty was like
Speaker 7: turning to like pursue him when he realized what the
Speaker 7: ball was going.
Speaker 8: So I threw afterw what.
Speaker 7: So he can like make a play on it, just
Speaker 7: so I don't throw it like a line job hit
Speaker 7: him the face mask and they turned around and picked
Speaker 7: the ball. So I gave him, gave him balls so
Speaker 7: he can jump in a bit. But I thought he
Speaker 7: did a great job acrobatic catch, and I believe it
Speaker 7: was two feet down.
Speaker 2: Well, he did have two feet down, but he had
Speaker 2: one toe out of bounds. But what would we be
Speaker 2: saying about Baltimore and John Harball today if they had
Speaker 2: gone for it and not gotten it, or if they
Speaker 2: went for it and they did get it, Because it
Speaker 2: felt like we're going for two on the road. You
Speaker 2: always go for the win, and this had playoff vibes
Speaker 2: to it. It's not a playoff game, but it'll impact
Speaker 2: the playoffs at the end of the year somehow, some
Speaker 2: way for these two teams. Harball was not going to
Speaker 2: take the chance of a tie and then letting Mahomes
Speaker 2: beat him in overtime, and I understand that. I applaud him.
Speaker 2: You're going for the win. In Kansas City, they didn't
Speaker 2: get that chance to show us what they would have
Speaker 2: done with the two point conversion. We got to see
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy and he might be the fastest player in
Speaker 2: the NFL. That might be where Noah Lyles goes to
Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill. You got to beat Xavier Worthy first to
Speaker 2: get to me. If we're going to have this race.
Speaker 2: But Xavier Worthy, here's Patrick Mahomes on his new toy.
Speaker 9: He's so cool, calm and collected like all the time,
Speaker 9: like you never even see the excitement on him. But
Speaker 9: I mean he goes out there and makes plays. Obviously
Speaker 9: we want to continue to use him more and more.
Speaker 9: But I thought he had a great day today making
Speaker 9: big plays and big moments, and it was good to
Speaker 9: get the whole offense going and kind of seeing where
Speaker 9: everybody's at.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they could be the you know new Tyreek Hill
Speaker 2: uh Jalen Wattle type feel with this team. Rashi Rice
Speaker 2: and then you got Xavier Worthy, you got you know,
Speaker 2: really young and again, you know, as long as they
Speaker 2: can keep Rashi Rice out of trouble, out of jail, uh,
Speaker 2: keep him in the lineup, that'll be good. But does
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy ran for a touchdown? I also caught a
Speaker 2: touchdown pass that's a lot of fun. And I still
Speaker 2: as soon as he scored, I just go Buffalo, Buffalo,
Speaker 2: Let Kansas City. Like there's certain teams that you don't
Speaker 2: If Jerry West ever called me, uh and I was
Speaker 2: a GM of another team, I would say I'm not
Speaker 2: there or if Red Arbach called me, then I was
Speaker 2: a GM of another team, I would just say, uh,
Speaker 2: tell them I'm not here, because you know, somehow, some
Speaker 2: way they're going to get the better end of something.
Speaker 2: The Bills helped out the Chiefs. The Chiefs want to
Speaker 2: move up. I can't. I have to have a call
Speaker 2: blocker on the Chiefs. Yes, yes, I'm blocking their call.
Speaker 2: Like when the Chiefs GM calls, it goes right to voicemail. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they never they never pick up. No, they're not going to.
Speaker 2: You can't. But it was fun. Nice debut Packers Eagles
Speaker 2: in Brazil. I got Philly is favored. I think the
Speaker 2: latest DraftKings odds is two points. Who's got more pressure tonight?
Speaker 2: And I would say Philadelphia obviously because of you know,
Speaker 2: obviously the coach and the quarterback friction. They're going to
Speaker 2: be on the same page. We're kind of waiting to
Speaker 2: see with the Eagles. Green Bay is you know, in
Speaker 2: a good spot. Certainly the second half of the season,
Speaker 2: playoff winning Dallas, Jordan Love got paid. They might be
Speaker 2: on scholarship for just a little bit. Philadelphia feels like
Speaker 2: a front burner and it's on high. Yes, who of that.
Speaker 3: Coach in quarterback, who has more pressure on them tonight?
Speaker 2: I would say the coach, would you Yeah, I would
Speaker 2: say the coach, because you're not going to fire the quarterback.
Speaker 2: You can fire the head coach. And that just feels
Speaker 2: like that seed is going to be warm throughout the
Speaker 2: year and whatever you do. That's another one. Okay, great,
Speaker 2: you hat a twelve win regular season. Now what do
Speaker 2: you do in the playoffs? Because if you go one
Speaker 2: and done like that, these are the storylines that aren't
Speaker 2: you know, week to week, this is the end result.
Speaker 2: Is what Dallas does in the postseason, what Baltimore does
Speaker 2: in the postseason, what Philadelphia does in the Postseason's that's
Speaker 2: the important part of their seasons. Now, Mike McCarthy may
Speaker 2: not be back. John Harball is going to be there
Speaker 2: no matter what. But I mean you have Nick Sirianni
Speaker 2: may not be there, and maybe during the regular season.
Speaker 2: The fact that we average around two coaches fired during
Speaker 2: the regular season, somebody's going to get a pink slip here.
Speaker 2: And also you look at the postseason as well, because
Speaker 2: it feels like there's six or seven that eventually get fired.
Speaker 2: But I would say Philadelphia with Nick Siriani getting off
Speaker 2: to a good start, Jalen Hurts looks good, Saquon Barkley
Speaker 2: gets the ball. Packers play well, but losing a close one, Like, okay,
Speaker 2: I think everybody would be satisfied. Now, if you're a
Speaker 2: Packer fan, you don't want to lose a game. You
Speaker 2: just want to make sure that you're picking up where
Speaker 2: you left off last year, that you're competitive. You you know,
Speaker 2: you could play in the super Bowl. And there's some
Speaker 2: people who have them playing in the super Bowl. They
Speaker 2: think that highly of them. Philadelphia, we kind of forgot
Speaker 2: about because last year they were ten and one and
Speaker 2: we go all right, here they go again, and then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden they went down nose died. Now,
Speaker 2: even if they get off to a good start, to
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, we did this last year, they should
Speaker 2: be great now. There's a lot of weaponry in that
Speaker 2: lineup there, they should be great, not good great. But
Speaker 2: I don't know how many people said the Eagles will
Speaker 2: go to the super Bowl this year out of the NFC,
Speaker 2: just because we're not quite sure of that coach and
Speaker 2: his relationship with his quarterback. Yeah pulling.
Speaker 6: I got two things on the Eagles after the Packers.
Speaker 6: The Eagles have Falcons, Saints, Buccaneers, Browns, Giants. That seems
Speaker 6: lightly friendly, Yeah to start the season. Yeah, how about
Speaker 6: more pressure on them this season? A sneaky one. I
Speaker 6: don't even know who the new center is for the
Speaker 6: Philadelphia Eagles, but taking over Jason Kelcey. They master the
Speaker 6: quarterback sneak play last year and I'm guessing it's still
Speaker 6: going to happen. They're not gonna get rid of it
Speaker 6: because Keelzy retired. Yeah, that seems like a lot of
Speaker 6: pressure to master that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they got bigger problems than that, or
Speaker 2: the potential for bigger problems than that. Certainly when when
Speaker 2: the coach and quarterback aren't on the same page, like
Speaker 2: boy head makes me nervous. Now they've said all you
Speaker 2: know what, it seems like they're in sync, and you
Speaker 2: know they're saying all the nice things here, Well, everything
Speaker 2: was good. I'm get a guess when you're ten and
Speaker 2: one and then all of a sudden something changed there.
Speaker 2: I'm really curious about that dynamic of Jalen Hurts, Nick
Speaker 2: Sirianni and I'll go back to what I was told
Speaker 2: by an NFL scout feels like defense has got a
Speaker 2: little better handle on Jalen Hurts. Yeah, they need a book.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: Once you get the book and now you realize, Okay,
Speaker 2: if we do this, he does this put him in
Speaker 2: this situation. So it feels like maybe they they need
Speaker 2: to go back to the drawing board a little bit
Speaker 2: with Jalen Hurts, just to make sure that he keeps progressing,
Speaker 2: evolving here. But those wide receivers, you got a tight end,
Speaker 2: you got Saquon Barkley, good offensive line, they should be really,
Speaker 2: really good. We were talking about rookie corps. Here's something
Speaker 2: for you. I did not know this. How many quarterbacks
Speaker 2: have started Week one for the Commanders since twenty seventeen.
Speaker 2: How many quarterbacks Week one? Different quarterbacks since twenty seventeen.
Speaker 2: Let me see, you want to take a guess here, so.
Speaker 5: That'll be seven seasons.
Speaker 8: I'm going to say five different quarterbacks.
Speaker 2: Okay, Pauli.
Speaker 10: Week one six, Seaton.
Speaker 2: Seven, Marvin.
Speaker 10: Eight eight is correct, Blue blue blue consistency.
Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels will be the eighth different quarterback to start
Speaker 2: Week one since twenty seventeen.
Speaker 8: Startup day, start day, start of the day.
Speaker 7: Startup to day startup Today start day startup to day.
Speaker 2: That list includes Sam Howe, Carson Wentz, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Dwayne Haskins,
Speaker 2: Case Keen, and Alex Smith and Kirk the Cousins. Rookies starting,
Speaker 2: you know, making a debut haven't done well. It's been
Speaker 2: a while since we've had a rookie making his debut winning.
Speaker 2: You have to go back to Sam Darnold when he
Speaker 2: was with the Jets in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 6: Yes, Paul, this is a stat for you. I just
Speaker 6: looked up Sam Howell. Sam Howell last year was the
Speaker 6: starter for Washington. He led the league in passing attempts
Speaker 6: six hundred and twelve passing attempts, didn't leave the league
Speaker 6: in completions, just passing attempts.
Speaker 2: I like Sam Howe.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you love on North Carolina.
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 2: I just like there's certain guys you go. But I
Speaker 2: don't know if he's his starting quarterback.
Speaker 10: He's very balanced. Twenty one touchdowns, twenty one picks.
Speaker 2: Okay, I like that, not selfish. That reminds me of
Speaker 2: Jameis Winston. Was he like he we don't even consider
Speaker 2: like a thirty for thirty thirty club and in quarterbacks
Speaker 2: we have it in baseball wasn't Jamis a thirty thirty member.
Speaker 6: Jameis Winston almost had one of the wildest seasons in
Speaker 6: history twenty nineteen. He threw for fifty one hundred yards,
Speaker 6: led the league in yardage. He threw for thirty three touchdowns,
Speaker 6: second league, and he threw for thirty interceptions.
Speaker 2: Okay, how many thirty thirty quarterbacks have we had in history?
Speaker 8: Whole place? Yes, Marvin, it's gotta be just one. There's
Speaker 8: no way somebody.
Speaker 2: But you gotta be good to be able to throw
Speaker 2: thirty interceptions, because you keep your job by throwing thirty
Speaker 2: touchdowns like it's weird.
Speaker 3: You have to be given the chance to interceptions.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, Jamis giveth and take it away. Do
Speaker 2: you think he's the only member of the thirty thirty club.
Speaker 2: I've got the list. I've got there's a list. Uh yeah,
Speaker 2: kind of Okay, how many quarterbacks have gone thirty thirty?
Speaker 6: I'll start with how many have had thirty interceptions. I'll
Speaker 6: throw some names who have had thirty that you know.
Speaker 6: Fran Tarkenton, Jameis Winston, Ken Stabler, Farv had twenty nine,
Speaker 6: George Blanda, then a bunch of old dudes, and how
Speaker 6: many have had thirty touchdowns? Plus let's get anyone think
Speaker 6: there's more.
Speaker 2: I'm going to say yes, now that you've said, like
Speaker 2: Kenny Stabler had to be good enough to stay in there.
Speaker 6: He had sixteen touchdown passes and thirty picks?
Speaker 2: Was that when he was in New Orleans?
Speaker 11: Oh?
Speaker 10: I got him in Oakland seventy eight? Dang, yeah, Seton.
Speaker 3: I feel like the thirty thirty club is full of
Speaker 3: Jamis Winston's of the world. He's a fellow who probably
Speaker 3: threw thirty touchdowns and thirty picks. Right, Yeah, that's it's
Speaker 3: got to be that sort of tier of quarterback.
Speaker 10: He is a standalone James Winston.
Speaker 2: Yeah, regulation the only member. All right, good for him.
Speaker 6: You have the close ones. I got George Blanda and
Speaker 6: John Hadel some older dudes.
Speaker 10: Seven touchdowns, Okay.
Speaker 6: One of the worst no offense, Vinnie Testa Verdi had
Speaker 6: a season in Tampa. Thirteen touchdown passes, thirty five picks.
Speaker 10: Wow, damn, you know what, we're going to keep him in.
Speaker 10: We're going to keep him in like week sixteen. Yes, yes,
Speaker 10: you have to be.
Speaker 2: Good enough to stay in there. Like John Starks against
Speaker 2: the Houston Rockets. Like he had to be good enough
Speaker 2: to stay in there and keep shooting threes, right, and
Speaker 2: he kept shooting three shooting, yeah, shooting, Yes, Tom, How could.
Speaker 7: You be considered good enough when your interception to touch
Speaker 7: every shore is almost three to one.
Speaker 8: That's that with Testa Verdi.
Speaker 12: That's a few interceptions ship exactly three to one picks
Speaker 12: to touchdowns.
Speaker 2: But he had to be good enough over the guy
Speaker 2: behind him, like the coaches gotta go, uh yeah, go
Speaker 2: back out there, Vinnie. Who is Vinnie's backup in Tampa Bay?
Speaker 6: Oh, the aging veteran from the Bill, Joe Ferguson one
Speaker 6: last year.
Speaker 2: Oh, Joe Ferguson, how about that? This is number twelve?
Speaker 10: Just like leave the kid in there over here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to play, Yeah yeah, all right,
Speaker 2: We're gonna take a break. And he is the face
Speaker 2: of NFL Network. Rich Eisen Will Jonas coming up, and

Speaker 2: yard line when going for two point conversion, not the
Speaker 2: three yard line. Actually it's e us, isn't it, Marvin?
Speaker 8: It is yes. I thought it was a three yard line,
Speaker 8: so that is e Marvin.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 2: But if I had gotten it correct, then I wouldn't
Speaker 2: have given you credit for getting it correct. No, absolutely,
Speaker 2: we made a mistake. I almost got it right. Yes,
Speaker 2: Paul in Canada, it's a three yard line. Oh it is,
Speaker 2: you're thinking Canadian. I have been watching a little bit
Speaker 2: of the CFL lately.
Speaker 10: It's kind of fun.
Speaker 2: Labor Day, I think there was a double header. Helloo.
Speaker 2: Rich Eisen joining us from Kansas City, the NFL Network
Speaker 2: host and host of The Rich Eisen Show on Roku.
Speaker 2: Richie Rich Great, see, I was worried about you the
Speaker 2: weather last night, lightning, Like I was a little concerned.
Speaker 13: No, I just I just you know, I'm a grounded man.
Speaker 13: Dan usually just twenty four to seven, So I grounded myself.
Speaker 13: I held onto Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner in the
Speaker 13: Westwood One booth for dear life and just got through it.
Speaker 13: You just took it one rain drop at a time, and.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 2: I like that. And then the rainbow came out.
Speaker 5: Oh look at us, a rainbow called the season kickoff.
Speaker 10: That's a fun game.
Speaker 5: That's good.
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you take away? If I say, the
Speaker 2: one thing you take away from Kansas City is.
Speaker 13: What that they're one hundred percent of viable three peat
Speaker 13: opportunity in front of them, and they have the horses
Speaker 13: to go get it, and they didn't even they weren't
Speaker 13: even full compliment last night. Hollywood Brown is is at
Speaker 13: some point going to come back, and and I understand
Speaker 13: he hasn't had a career that is lit it up
Speaker 13: with them, but he definitely can take the top of
Speaker 13: a defense off and create more problems that that Mahomes
Speaker 13: can take advantage of. And so and and their defense
Speaker 13: looks just as good as last year. Chris Chris Jones
Speaker 13: is the Hall of Famer that's on their team that
Speaker 13: nobody really talks about.
Speaker 5: So you could take that away from the Chiefs last
Speaker 5: night for sure.
Speaker 2: And the one takeaway with the Ravens is.
Speaker 13: Is that they're just as good as last year, and
Speaker 13: that may just be one toe shy of being good enough,
Speaker 13: you know.
Speaker 5: I mean that that a couple of times.
Speaker 13: I was just wondering why they just went away from
Speaker 13: from Derrick Henry last night, and especially since their first
Speaker 13: drive of the game they had six runs from a
Speaker 13: running back in the AFC Championship Game loss, and that
Speaker 13: was definitely one of those moments that you're gonna be
Speaker 13: scratching your head about for the rest of your Football lives,
Speaker 13: And they handed the ball to Henry five times in
Speaker 13: the first drive, and I thought, okay, you know, let's
Speaker 13: check this box. They saw their problem from last year,
Speaker 13: they fixed it with one of the all time best
Speaker 13: and and and he did not have many carries the
Speaker 13: rest of the game. But that said, the Ravens can
Speaker 13: absolutely on any given AFC Championship Sunday, beat the Chiefs.
Speaker 5: They just didn't do it last night.
Speaker 2: And I think lost in the did he get in?
Speaker 2: Did he get was he out? Was Harball was going
Speaker 2: for two?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Which yay?
Speaker 2: I how do you what do you read into that
Speaker 2: that he's going for I know, on the road, you
Speaker 2: go for the win, but this felt playoff like.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 13: And you know at Belichick gone, he's the second most
Speaker 13: tenured coach in the NFL, so he's you know, he's
Speaker 13: not looking over his shoulder to think what Steve Baschatti's
Speaker 13: going to think. And clearly, you know, when you have
Speaker 13: one shot from me, let me just check my notes here,
Speaker 13: two yard line to win the game, because we're in America,
Speaker 13: in America, you know, the parts of North America to
Speaker 13: a two point conversion from the two.
Speaker 5: That they they you do it.
Speaker 13: You take your shots, you don't leave Mahomes with the
Speaker 13: ball last That's why the Niners aren't champions in many
Speaker 13: ways right now. That's why we didn't open up in
Speaker 13: Santa Clara last night. So I'm not surprised by it.
Speaker 13: It's the sort of thing that he's constantly done in
Speaker 13: his career. And man, that was just the whole place
Speaker 13: went from loud and buzzing with excitement we're just being
Speaker 13: one playaway for the home team to win, to completely silent,
Speaker 13: to Sean hockyly making everyone delighted with the announcement. It
Speaker 13: was just great to be there last night.
Speaker 2: Give me the other game you're gonna look at and go,
Speaker 2: that's maybe not the best game. Like the most important
Speaker 2: game this weekend, including to is which game.
Speaker 5: I'm looking at? Steelers Falcons.
Speaker 13: Man, I just love the whole intrigue of how the
Speaker 13: Steelers and Mike Tomlin, who is the most tenured coach
Speaker 13: in the NFL, now that Belichick is working for six
Speaker 13: other media outlets right now, and Tomlin has switched up
Speaker 13: the approach on offense that Steelers.
Speaker 5: Fans have been.
Speaker 13: Full throated about, which is, let's find an offensive coordinator
Speaker 13: from outside the building, and he brings in Arthur Smith
Speaker 13: and then totally revamps the quarterback room, brings in Russell Wilson.
Speaker 13: The minute that Kenny Pickett, to use the Tomlin phrase,
Speaker 13: acts like a hostage instead of a volunteer.
Speaker 5: They send him across the Straight States to.
Speaker 13: Philadelphia, and then bringing Justin Fields for a fifth round
Speaker 13: pick in next year's draft. Totally remake the room and
Speaker 13: it's going to be Russell Wilson now going out there
Speaker 13: for Arthur Smith.
Speaker 5: I have no idea how that's going to look.
Speaker 13: And anything that you'd take a look at in the
Speaker 13: last couple of years, you're going to think that Russ
Speaker 13: is going to be less than again, but you never know.
Speaker 13: And to have that play out in Atlanta where they
Speaker 13: have completely revamped everything, new general manager, new quarterbacks, plural
Speaker 13: and the criticism that the Falcons received, including you know,
Speaker 13: I think you and I were kind of vocal on
Speaker 13: drafting Michael Pennix instead of the top defender on the
Speaker 13: draft board, well they kind of made up for that
Speaker 13: by getting Matthew Judon and Justin Simmons in the final
Speaker 13: weeks of August. I'm very excited to see how how
Speaker 13: both teams handle their first business and it's against each other.
Speaker 2: We're talking to Richison, NFL network host The Rich Iison Show.
Speaker 2: You can see that on Roku. He joins us from
Speaker 2: Kansas City. Points of emphasis for referees this year. We
Speaker 2: saw that last night with offensive tackles lined up or
Speaker 2: where they're lined up. Do you think we can get
Speaker 2: to a point, Rich where offensive tackles are looking at
Speaker 2: the side judge and going to my am I okay,
Speaker 2: like like receivers do that?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 2: Am I good? Am I good?
Speaker 11: Here?
Speaker 2: Because that seems to be a point of emphasis again.
Speaker 13: I think what we should do is just tell the
Speaker 13: offensive lineman that if you're lined up in a way
Speaker 13: where you could see one of your fellow lineman's cheeks,
Speaker 13: you know, like you could see if you could see
Speaker 13: one of the cheeks or the the opposite cheek from
Speaker 13: where you're lining up, you're you're not on size.
Speaker 5: I think maybe that could be.
Speaker 2: A point then I'm good. I'm good with that. Did
Speaker 2: you make your Superbowl vision?
Speaker 12: Dan?
Speaker 2: Your super Bowl picker?
Speaker 13: H Yeah, I said the Chiefs with three p It's
Speaker 13: about time. Just it's the last major North American sport
Speaker 13: where we haven't seen a champion three years in a row,
Speaker 13: and it's time and they really can do it. They
Speaker 13: really do have the roster to do it. They didn't
Speaker 13: get their coaching staff rated. Everybody is still in their
Speaker 13: prime or on the top end of their prime.
Speaker 5: And why not? I mean truly, why not?
Speaker 13: Because at some point, you know, Mahomes now that you're
Speaker 13: going to have to beat Patrick Mahomes in a winner,
Speaker 13: go home game, and Mahomes, I think, now has this
Speaker 13: aura that we've seen from you know, Michael and Kobe
Speaker 13: and Tiger truly, and you have to wonder and look
Speaker 13: around and say to when you see someone like Lamar,
Speaker 13: is he just having his prime moments in the wrong
Speaker 13: years in the same way we looked at Malone and
Speaker 13: Ewing in that respect back in the nineties, et cetera,
Speaker 13: et cetera. I do believe we're entering that realm and
Speaker 13: the Chiefs have what it takes to cash that in.
Speaker 2: We had a topic yesterday the biggest legacy boost by
Speaker 2: winning the Super Bowl? Which player would have the biggest
Speaker 2: boost to his legacy? Okay, now I picked Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2: Do you win with the Jets winning in New York?
Speaker 2: You know, we brought up Jared goff Mahomes obviously with
Speaker 2: the three pet dak uh. You know where that would
Speaker 2: place him, you know, in the pantheon of cowboy quarterbacks.
Speaker 2: So do you have a legacy boost? Pick?
Speaker 13: I might return to russ here, right, I mean at
Speaker 13: this Russell kind of had a Hall of Fame path.
Speaker 2: Is he still a Hall of Famer right now?
Speaker 5: I don't think so.
Speaker 2: Has he played himself out of the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 5: I don't think you can argue anything else.
Speaker 2: Yes, personally nine Pro Bowls though nine Pro Bowls, two
Speaker 2: Super Bowls, one one.
Speaker 5: He does have the resume. It's just the last several years.
Speaker 13: You just have to wonder what's happened and and if
Speaker 13: he goes to Pittsburgh for Pittsburgh and wins it all
Speaker 13: for the Steelers, then that is one of the biggest
Speaker 13: legacy boosts you can talk about. And I know what
Speaker 13: you're saying with Rogers, but Rogers still has He's a
Speaker 13: first ballot Hall of Famer regardless of whether.
Speaker 5: He wins with the Jets this year.
Speaker 13: You just don't put him in the in the category
Speaker 13: of having one month multiple Super Bowls.
Speaker 5: And you know he doesn't. He doesn't get.
Speaker 13: Maybe a mount Rushmore conversation, but I don't think he
Speaker 13: particularly cares about that. Clearly, I think he would like it,
Speaker 13: but he's still a first ballot Hall of Famer. When
Speaker 13: he stops playing five years after he's he stops.
Speaker 5: Playing, he's in. I don't think you could say that
Speaker 5: about Russ. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 2: You know, success though with Ben and Terry, whereas the
Speaker 2: Jets have had one year and that's which go name it.
Speaker 13: Yes, I was a three month old embryo when the
Speaker 13: Jets won their Super Bowl, Dan, So I was you know,
Speaker 13: that was minus three months.
Speaker 2: You know, you didn't know what you were being berthed
Speaker 2: into as far as.
Speaker 13: Yes, and the Jets playoff, playoff seasonless streak has now
Speaker 13: been bar mitzved, so it's thirteen years. It's now a
Speaker 13: man in the eyes of the football lord, of course.
Speaker 13: So yeah, I know what you're saying in that regard,
Speaker 13: but it's still yes, he would he would be, he'd
Speaker 13: have a legacy in New York's sports lore, but he
Speaker 13: still goes into Canton. And so I'm looking at people
Speaker 13: who might be on that edge of the true legacy position.
Speaker 5: Are you in the Hall of Fame or not.
Speaker 13: And you know, Dak, you could make that case where
Speaker 13: he does shut everyone up. And by the way, I mean,
Speaker 13: would be able to show up at Jerry Jones's desk
Speaker 13: and say that's a sixty million dollars a year bag
Speaker 13: if I've ever seen one, you know, if if he
Speaker 13: doesn't sign in the next forty eight hours, which is
Speaker 13: kind of crazy.
Speaker 2: What's the interest though, that he's losing out on with
Speaker 2: this new deal? Like how much how much intro would
Speaker 2: be on a five year, three hundred three hundred million.
Speaker 13: Dan, Dan, I was more verbal on the SA tea.
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, yeah, you know, I mean.
Speaker 2: Was math today, Dan, I my bad. It just came
Speaker 2: to me of how much interest you is he missing
Speaker 2: out on by not getting that contract the guarantee like
Speaker 2: as it goes on months, you know, yeah, yeah, five
Speaker 2: million years? Like is he missing out on five I don't.
Speaker 5: Know Jak's retirement plans taking it.
Speaker 2: Hit he's going to get seventy million dollars a year.
Speaker 2: I don't know about one of those. Well in one
Speaker 2: of the years, Yes, I see, like he's going to
Speaker 2: be I'm waiting to see, Like Shay gilgis Alexander is
Speaker 2: going to get He might be the first to get
Speaker 2: to eighty million dollars in the NBA.
Speaker 13: So if Dak signs first this year, like he signs
Speaker 13: for sixty million, yeah, in the next four eight hours. Yeah,
Speaker 13: does Brock Purdy become the highest paid player in the
Speaker 13: Bay Area on an annual basis? Now that's sixty two
Speaker 13: and a half. I believe Steph Curry just signed for
Speaker 13: for a one year extension. Does Purty beat Steph dan Patrick?
Speaker 2: Probably so?
Speaker 13: Rich Eisen, I think so too. And you never thought
Speaker 13: that you How about this? The race to the first
Speaker 13: sixty million dollars a year quarterback is Dak Prescott and
Speaker 13: Brock Purty and they you know, and they're going to
Speaker 13: play each other again in week six and seven, and
Speaker 13: it's going to be, you know, a metric as to
Speaker 13: whether each team is going to win the Super Bowl
Speaker 13: this year.
Speaker 5: I'm so psyched Football's back.
Speaker 2: Dan Michigan, your Alma Maters seven point underdog against Texas tomorrow.
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, Yeah. Your question is, what's your question?
Speaker 2: How do you feel?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 12: Dan?
Speaker 13: We've won sixteen games in a row, and I'm very
Speaker 13: excited about those sixteen games in a row. We're taking
Speaker 13: a one game at a time. This one does genuinely concern me,
Speaker 13: and but it has been an incredible run if it
Speaker 13: Let's just put it this way, I don't want to
Speaker 13: see arch Manning on Saturday. I don't want to see
Speaker 13: him because if he comes in the game, that means
Speaker 13: he might be handed a mop.
Speaker 5: And I'm not really interested.
Speaker 13: In at in the in the stadium, in the big house.
Speaker 2: But you know, you never know, would you have been
Speaker 2: willing to take a pay cut at NFL Network to
Speaker 2: keep Jim Harball at Oh no, no.
Speaker 13: Dan, he did what he wanted to do. He hung
Speaker 13: the banner. He's now you know, going, and he's in
Speaker 13: the NFL. Thank goodness for that too, you know. I mean,
Speaker 13: if he wasn't in the NFL, Dan, you have to
Speaker 13: sit here and just wonder would Brandon Staley have been
Speaker 13: able to nail the ability to raise his quarterback up
Speaker 13: by praising his prowess inside a stuck elevator quite like
Speaker 13: Jim Harmon.
Speaker 2: It was yea of all the coaches who have had
Speaker 2: their quarterbacks stuck in an elevator, Harba stands out with
Speaker 2: his compliments.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, it was a courageous act. It will stand there
Speaker 5: and be a leader in a stock elevator.
Speaker 2: And have planner of fascia while standing in the elevator,
Speaker 2: which maybe exacerbated that injury.
Speaker 5: That's next level, Dan, that is next.
Speaker 2: He's a hero, he's a patriot. He's a hero, he's
Speaker 2: an American. He's rich Ice. Good to talk to you
Speaker 2: about it.

Speaker 2: in South Carolina, Hi, Mitch, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11: Hey?
Speaker 14: Dan five eleven. Hey, I was just calling in weigh
Speaker 14: in on that travesty of a game last night in
Speaker 14: the last play, and I got a little Friday fritzy
Speaker 14: going on in my head. I think Lamar Jackson will
Speaker 14: most likely have to watch that over again to make
Speaker 14: sure that we're all seeing what we are because that
Speaker 14: was definitely out of bounds.
Speaker 2: Well it was, it was close, it was out of bounds.
Speaker 2: Now you can nitpick and say, you know, was the
Speaker 2: throw where it should have been the previous play should
Speaker 2: have had a touchdown. It felt like a walk in touchdown.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: That's that's one where film study you're going to be like,
Speaker 2: one team finds a way to win, the other team doesn't.
Speaker 2: That's the difference. Kansas City. I never I didn't think
Speaker 2: they were going to beat Baltimore and Baltimore last year
Speaker 2: during the playoffs. But great teams find a way to win. Yeah,
Speaker 2: pulling Marvin.
Speaker 6: I were just talking. Can you imagine if a Super
Speaker 6: Bowl ended with a play like that? Where to my eye,
Speaker 6: I thought it was a touchdown and the refs put
Speaker 6: them up pretty fast. It looked pretty fast. But that
Speaker 6: you start celebrating and then you have to look at
Speaker 6: it and it's not there's no plays next it's like, oh,
Speaker 6: we got one more down.
Speaker 2: Well, if it's good, then they they were going for
Speaker 2: the two point conversion. If that was the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2: Would you go for a two point conversion to win
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl? How about time? How about that?
Speaker 8: That's a good poll question.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Tom. Let me see Mitch in Oregon. Hey Mitch,
