1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: Wants to bring in Lewis Riddick from the mother Ship. 4 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 2: He'll be on the call for Miami at Pittsburgh Saturday 5 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 2: neon Eastern on ABC. What'd you make of that back 6 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 2: and forth there? 7 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's Lane, man, that's Lane just trying to trying 8 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 3: to deflect the questions and not answer him until he, 9 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 3: you know, drops his decision on the rest of us. 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 3: As far as we know what exactly it is that 11 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 3: he's planning on doing. You know, it's a look, I mean, 12 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 3: you know what. Look, I've talked to Lane Dan many 13 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 3: many times. We cover a bunch of their games. I 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 3: really like the guy, developed a friendship with him. He's 15 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 3: been really good to me as far as, you know, 16 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 3: the information that we need to do our jobs. But look, 17 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 3: Lane right now is trying to make the best decision 18 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 3: for his football career and the college football you know, schedule, 19 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 3: as far as when coaches can be talked to, when 20 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 3: coaches can be hired, you know, as when you kind 21 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 3: of compare it to the end, I feel it's. 22 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 4: Just screwed up. 23 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 3: He's in a situation right now where really he can't win. 24 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 3: He could make it simpler, you know, if his decision 25 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: was simply just to go back to Old Miss. I mean, 26 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: he could obviously simplify this whole thing and put this 27 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 3: the whole thing the rest. As far as you know, 28 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 3: the speculation surrounding his job, obviously it leads you to 29 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 3: believe that you know he hasn't made a decision, or 30 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 3: that he's made a decision that maybe that is going 31 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: to cause a little bit of let's just say, controversy 32 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 3: as far as maybe what he decides to do. But 33 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 3: I think we're all just gonna have to sit and 34 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 3: wait right now. And you can tell he's having a 35 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 3: hard time trying to keep people off his back until 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 3: he actually does make his decision and make it known. 37 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 3: And it's tough, man, it's tough being in the situation 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 3: that he's in. I don't envy him because I can understand, 39 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 3: as far as you know, him trying to make a 40 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: decision that he feels as though it was going to 41 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: set him up to be a national championship winning head 42 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,639 Speaker 3: coach at some point down the line. And that doesn't 43 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: mean necessarily that he can't get that done at Old Miss, 44 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 3: but just right now. He's not willing to let us 45 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: in on where he's heading with this thing. 46 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: And let's say he goes either lash or Florida. Yeah, 47 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: would you let him coach ole Miss in the playoffs? 48 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 3: I'd have a hard time doing it. I really would, 49 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: because obviously it wouldn't be fair to you know, to 50 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: his players right now that he has the roster that 51 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 3: he has assembled right now. 52 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: But he does give you the best chance too. 53 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: Of course it does. And look, I think what it is. 54 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: It's it's kind of like it's kind of like an 55 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 3: ethics discussion, I guess you you would say here, like, 56 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 3: does he does he have to right to coach a 57 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 3: team up until the very end, up until they get 58 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 3: knocked out of it? Given the fact that he is, 59 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 3: in essence kind of decided, hey, look, this isn't the 60 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 3: team ultimately that I want to coach, and that down 61 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 3: the line, I'm looking to move on and go to 62 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 3: a different place. 63 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 5: I think that. 64 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: I mean, look, if you're if you're the sitting athletic 65 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: director or the sitting president of of Ole Miss and 66 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 3: he let's just say he did decide to go to 67 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 3: a different place, Yeah, I would have a hard time 68 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: I would have a hard time letting him continue to 69 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 3: coach the team, although although he gives the team the 70 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: best chance to win a national title with him leading 71 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: the charge. Of course, Yeah, it's it's a it's a 72 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: very tough it's a tough situation for everyone involved here, man, 73 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 3: and I would not want to be in it. And somehow, 74 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: some way, the NCAA has to kind of change up 75 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 3: the structure so where you don't you don't have coaches 76 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 3: being put in this situation, and most importantly, you don't 77 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: have players and teams being put in this situation. 78 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 2: There was an incident during the Niners game against the 79 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: Panthers when Juwan Jennings got hit in the groin and 80 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 2: he was hit by Trayvon Mullrig. Okay, and then after 81 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 2: the game he took a swing at Moullrig and then 82 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, people are like, wait a minute, 83 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: what's what happened here? And then we saw the video 84 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 2: where he gets hit in the groin. Yeah, what's worse 85 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 2: getting hit in the groin or somebody's spitting in your face? 86 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 3: Well, I think look, someone spitting in your face. I 87 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: think you've heard many people talk about this, Dan I mean, 88 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 3: that's the ultimate. It's the ultimate show of disrespect, getting 89 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 3: hit in the groin, someone purposely taking a shot. You're going, Look, it's. 90 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 5: All the same to me. 91 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: When someone's trying to butt you, know, to hurt you 92 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 3: in a very meaningful way, and when someone's trying to 93 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 3: disrespect you in a very meaningful way. Look, those those 94 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 3: are just lines you just don't cross on the football field, 95 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 3: and all things, all bets are off after that, they 96 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 3: just are. I think Mike Tomlin put it perfectly when 97 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 3: I guess a reporter asked him, how are you advising 98 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 3: your players if someone were to spit in your face? 99 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 3: And I think he you know, I'm kind of paraphrasing 100 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 3: where he said, Look, you just do what comes naturally 101 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 3: to you at that point, and someone that hits you 102 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 3: in the groin, Dan, if someone spits in your face, 103 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 3: I would tell you the same thing or anyone else, 104 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 3: do what comes comes naturally and I'll back you from there. 105 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: Would you be playing Joe Burrow if you're the Bengals. 106 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't. 107 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 4: I wouldn't. 108 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 5: I think it. 109 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 3: Look, sometimes we know this, We know players need to 110 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: be protected from themselves, Like the Bengals aren't going on 111 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 3: anywhere as far twenty twenty five. And I know, like 112 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: this is the highest form of competition when it comes 113 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 3: to pro football, and you're being paid to do a job, 114 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: and Joe Burrow's being paid handsomely. But at the same time, 115 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 3: I'm trying to look out for his long term future 116 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 3: and the long term future of the Bengals, and I 117 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 3: don't think it's it's served by putting him out there 118 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 3: and a season that right now isn't going anywhere. I 119 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 3: just wouldn't want to risk further injury. I know he 120 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: could get injured at any time. It is football, It's 121 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 3: what he's paid to do. But I wouldn't put him 122 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: out there. 123 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: I wouldn't. 124 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 2: But he wants to be out there. Yeah, I know 125 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: your fan base is paying to see him out there. Yeah, 126 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 2: you can't bubble wrap him. 127 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: That's true. That is true. I understand that. But we're 128 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 3: talking about one of the elite of the elites that look, 129 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: I guess what I would really need to know here is, 130 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 3: and I say this numerous I've said this numerous different times. 131 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 3: One of the most important aspects of an organization is 132 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: your medical department, your doctors, your trainers, your rehab specialists. 133 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 3: I would actually want to know, Look, what is the 134 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 3: risk of playing this young man and putting him back 135 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: out there on the football field and the season that's 136 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 3: not going anywhere? Am I risking his long term future 137 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 3: that I've invested so much in by putting him back 138 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 3: out there? What's the risk of injuring him to the 139 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 3: degree where it compromises his long term future with our organization? 140 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: Those are That's where I would probably wind up leaning 141 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: on the most. But sitting here on the outside looking in, 142 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: I would probably be like, look, we're gonna look forward 143 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: to twenty twenty six with you, Joe. 144 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: I'm talking to Lewis Riddick of the motherships. You got 145 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 2: Miami at Pittsburgh, And I brought this up a little 146 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: bit with Notre Dame in Miami Miami Beach, Notre Dame 147 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 2: starting the season, Notre Dame is ranked higher. Where do 148 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,239 Speaker 2: you stand with that? Should Notre Dame be ranked higher 149 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: than Miami? Given the head to head? 150 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 3: Look, I think there's a lot left to be played 151 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 3: out still, Okay, at this point, do I think they 152 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: should be being compared in the same pod as the 153 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 3: as the committee talked about yeah, I do. I think 154 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 3: they should be. I understand that they're saying that, look, 155 00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 3: Notre Dame's losses, or rather Miami's losses are worse than 156 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 3: Notre Dame's losses. Then that's why maybe they are there 157 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: is a little bit of a gap between where they 158 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 3: are putting them right now and that they're not evaluating 159 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 3: them in the same pod. Then why would why would 160 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 3: any team ever want to schedule tough games in the 161 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 3: beginning of the season anymore if early season wins don't 162 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: count the same as late season wins. I mean, that's 163 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,559 Speaker 3: an argument Miami can make. It an argument that Miami 164 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: should make. I think in the end, after this weekend 165 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 3: is all settled up, we're gonna see whether or not 166 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 3: that early season win really did mean something for Miami 167 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 3: if they are able to get past Pittsburgh on Saturday 168 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: and beat them convincingly, and then we can wind up 169 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: having this, you know, this conversation once again. I think 170 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 3: head to head should matter, no matter when you play it. 171 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 3: I don't like the whole idea of the that the 172 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: that the let's just say that the the value of 173 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 3: that win diminishes over time. I don't believe that I 174 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,679 Speaker 3: do believe that teams can improve and teams can also 175 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: become worse as the season goes along. But head to 176 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: head Matt has to mean something regardless of when it 177 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: was played. And there's gonna be a lot of other 178 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 3: objective factors that go into this decision, which a lot 179 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 3: of times it seems like that's a sliding scale that 180 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: they use whatever they need to use in order to 181 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: justify what their eyes are telling them. And that's why 182 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 3: this whole thing's kind of a mess. When you can't 183 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 3: ultimately decide things on the football field, then you're always 184 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 3: gonna have disagreements. 185 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 5: You just are. 186 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 3: But that head to head is something I'm telling you 187 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 3: has to have become a factor. It has to be 188 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: a factor after this weekend is over. 189 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: Twenty minutes ago, I was talking about Rock Purty. He 190 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: hesitated on all three of those throws in the first half. 191 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 2: He threw interceptions, and I said, in college, you can 192 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: get away with hesitate, hesitate, then throw, you can double pump. 193 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you have time. In the NFL, you don't 194 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: have time, right Like, as soon as he paused, I went, 195 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, and then he threw the interceptions. You 196 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 2: played defensive back in the NFL, you got to throw 197 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: guys open and they don't stay open very long. But 198 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: that precision is what makes quarterbacks great. And the guys 199 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: who don't aren't able to do that. The younger quarterbacks 200 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 2: who think they can do what they did in college, 201 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the death of you. So can you 202 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: explain that though of throwing that receiver open as a 203 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 2: defensive back facing these receivers in quarterbacks? 204 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, the great guys who patrolled the middle of 205 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 3: the field, in particular the safeties, even linebackers. But that's 206 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 3: where you see the interceptions. That's where you see the 207 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 3: lack of anticipation on the part of quarterbacks really come 208 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 3: home to bite them. It's when they're trying to throw 209 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 3: those big fifteen eighteen yard incuts that are coming in 210 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 3: right inside the hash, right behind a second level defender 211 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: or right in front of a safety who's coming downhill, 212 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 3: and that's where a lot of times it's not open 213 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: when you throw it, but you're banking on the fact 214 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: that the receiver is going to be exactly where you 215 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 3: expect them to be, and I'm going to put the 216 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 3: ball exactly where there is enough time for the receiver 217 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 3: to make the catch and protect them before that safety 218 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 3: is able to anticipate where I'm you know that I'm 219 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 3: letting both go of this ball and he's going to 220 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 3: be driving downhill. So those those quarterbacks that are able 221 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 3: to do that, I mean, you're right. The windows are 222 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: about one foot by one foot. They're trying to fit 223 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 3: them into a tiny little box. And if he hitches 224 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 3: at all, if he hesitates at all, and it gives 225 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: me that extra step that when he takes his hand 226 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 3: off of that ball, when he takes his hand off 227 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 3: of the ball and he lets it go, that's usually 228 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 3: when I'm trying to break. Okay, as a middle of 229 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: the field defender, if he pauses this for a second, 230 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 3: he's given me another step in order to get there 231 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 3: to either make the interception or have Back in the 232 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 3: day it was a big blow up shot, which now 233 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 3: you can't do. But maybe you're giving me that extra 234 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 3: second to get there. And so yeah, you have to 235 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: be for you have to be sure when you let 236 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 3: that ball go, and even when you let it go 237 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 3: on time, there are great safeties and great linebackers who 238 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 3: are still going to be able to make the play. 239 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 3: But that's that's the that's the cost of doing business. 240 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 3: When you're throw on the football in the middle of 241 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 3: the field like that, if there's any hesitation, you are 242 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 3: really putting the ball at harm's way. I heard Kurt 243 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 3: Warner talking about this where I read him talking about this, 244 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 3: you know, on on social media. I believe it was 245 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: either last night or this morning. Nobody threw the deep 246 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 3: in cut better than Kurt Warner. Nobody, And he says, look, 247 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 3: sometimes it burned me. Sometimes even when I let it 248 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 3: go on time, the DV still made the play. But 249 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: I can guarantee you this. If you don't let it 250 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 3: go on time and they do get a break, you're cooked. 251 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: And that's what was happening in the brock. I mean, 252 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 3: that's I think you did. You talk about the fact 253 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 3: that look, you know what, and I've said this too, 254 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 3: fans should watch a game, or have the chance to 255 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 3: watch a game from behind the from the quarterback's vantage 256 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: point field level, to see what they see and see 257 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 3: just how hard it is to do what you're talking about. 258 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 3: And quite honestly, most fans or most average football players, 259 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: high school college football players wouldn't throw a lot of 260 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 3: the throws that these guys throw because it never looks open. 261 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 3: You never look like there's an open window. But you 262 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 3: have to trust it and you have to let it go. 263 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: And look, that's why these guys get paid what they're paid, 264 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 3: and that's why the error the margin for error is 265 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 3: like slim and none. 266 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: But this is what I wanted Tom Brady to do 267 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: or Peyton Manning to do, is have the camera behind 268 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 2: the offensive line and actually put us right there in 269 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: the moment. So Tom is going to say, I see 270 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: the mic linebacker there, this guy's coming. This guy's going 271 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 2: to act like he's coming. You know, we got safeties here. 272 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: So if he tells me that in real time, yeah, 273 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: that's the experience I want to hear from Brady or Peyton. 274 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: So we do understand that. I tell my audience all 275 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: the time, if you saw the game from the sidelines 276 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 2: in real speed, you would be shocked how fast it is. 277 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 2: Like TV helps us, you know, focus, It's incredible how 278 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 2: fast and how violent the game is. But if you 279 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: put me behind Brady and Brady goes to the lawn, 280 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: and maybe better yet, Peyton because when he went to 281 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: the line, he's changing the play and he's pointing out things. 282 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 2: I think that would be fascinating. I think that that 283 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: would really help us understand a tutorial on that's bringing 284 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: you as close to the line as scrimmage literally as possible. 285 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, the only challenge for them, obviously would be not 286 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 3: knowing what the offensive call is. So therefore they can't 287 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 3: necessarily give you all the reads and the checks that 288 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 3: they would make because they don't know exactly what the 289 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: offense is trying to do. So he may be thinking 290 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: it's going to be one thing, but the offense is 291 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 3: trying to do something else. 292 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 2: But Tom could tell me what he would be doing 293 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 2: in that. Let's say it's third and ten, so it's obvious. 294 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're just talking about as far as defensive recognition 295 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 3: about what they're doing, what you would be a learning 296 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: for Yeah, no doubt, no question about it. Yeah, and 297 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 3: it would. I'll tell you, it would blow your mind. 298 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 5: Quarterback lane. 299 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 3: Quarterback is hard, man, because there's so much stuff that 300 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 3: they have to know pre snap and then it can 301 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 3: all change, then it all changes post snap, and that is. 302 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 5: That That's why. 303 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 3: Look, I always always give quarterbacks the benefit of Dallas, 304 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 3: especially when you're talking about their development, because you have to. 305 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: Football is a participation development sport. You cannot develop without participating, 306 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 3: and you got to give guys time, especially a quarterback. 307 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 2: Oh wait, let me get one more question here, because 308 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: I'm up against commercial breakdown. If the Cowboys beat the 309 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: Chiefs yet, I. 310 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 3: Think they are gonna be very dangerous here in the 311 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 3: month of December, very dangerous, and you're gonna be looking 312 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 3: at Dallas and talking about can they really make that 313 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 3: push to be a participant in the playoffs, And if 314 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 3: they get in the playoffs, all bets are off because 315 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 3: we all know in single elimination tournaments, teams that can 316 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: score points and play defense at the level that they're 317 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 3: playing defense now, especially upfront, they are dangerous. And who knows. 318 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: At the end of the Chiefs R, we're going to something. 319 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: If the chief Yeah, I was gonna say that was 320 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: my follow up to the follow up, But yeah, are 321 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: the Chiefs done? If they lose on Thursday, well. 322 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 3: Then they need help and then you just don't know. 323 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 3: The Chiefs just got to win out, and they got 324 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 3: to control their own destiny. They've got to win out. 325 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, I think if they lose, then it's not 326 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 3: in their hands anymore. 327 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 5: So then it's this fifty to fifty. 328 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 3: The Chiefs have to control everything now from here on out, 329 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 3: and the only way they can do that is by 330 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: winning every game. 331 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: Okay, the follow up to the follow up, did Jerry 332 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: Jones make the right decision on Micah Parsons? 333 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 3: If these guys continue to play the way they're playing 334 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: and they're able to maximize the value that they got 335 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 3: from those picks in the coming drafts, it looks like 336 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 3: he may have. 337 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, save travels.

You know, it was 364 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 7: one foot on the ground you had to keep not 365 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 7: too right if you had been a professional at that point. 366 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 7: So in today's nil world, I think you would have 367 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 7: had to have two feet on the ground in order 368 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 7: to you know, pass. 369 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 2: How was your college, I mean, you were a big deal. You're, 370 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 2: you know, big star at Florida. 371 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 7: It's like everybody else's I think. I mean, you go 372 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 7: in there, you have no idea. My one son had 373 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 7: the best idea. Austin went to play at Notre Dame 374 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 7: and he said, you know, the most interesting part of 375 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 7: college is the first week. Like everybody's in a full 376 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 7: panic that they don't know anybody, they don't have any friends, 377 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 7: and they want to have friends. So he said, I 378 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 7: just came up with the idea. I was going to 379 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 7: go up to every hot girl on campus and go, look, hey, 380 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 7: we're all new here, here's my phone number. If you 381 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 7: need anything, they give it yours. It was like the 382 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 7: great a scam of all time that he had this 383 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 7: whole thing worked out in his brain and the rest 384 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 7: of us are like, Hi, Hi. 385 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 4: Florida. 386 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, I want to be a doctor, but I probably 387 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 7: will never get there, so I'm hoping I can be 388 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 7: a broadcast. 389 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 4: You know, Like what do we were all doing? We 390 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 4: were all terrible? 391 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 2: Wait, you wanted to be a doctor. 392 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,719 Speaker 7: I went through a year of like pre med and 393 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 7: it was you know, I could do fine in every 394 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 7: class except for the weeding out. Class was chemistry and 395 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 7: I made like sees and pretty much understood at that 396 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 7: point that wasn't happening. 397 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 2: What are the chances? Lane Kiffin goes to your alma mater. 398 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 7: You know, I was watching that game when Florida was 399 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 7: playing Old Miss, and I was thinking, this is going 400 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 7: to be the most messed up thing of all. Florida 401 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 7: wants Lane Kiffin, and now Florida's team's going to beat 402 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 7: Lane Kiffin before it, and so now nobody's gonna want 403 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 7: Lane Kiffin like only Florida could come for this scenario. 404 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: I don't know. 405 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 7: I've heard little rumors on the outside and they're thinking that, 406 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,199 Speaker 7: you know, Lane's going to give them a discount for 407 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 7: going to Florida and probably not going to happen, and 408 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 7: you know, there's always a few things going on, so that, yeah, 409 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 7: Florida's Florida's kind of in neat. And you've got to say, 410 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 7: what Lane has done at Ole Miss has been pretty remarkable. 411 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 4: That's that's pretty good stuff. 412 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:26,719 Speaker 5: All right. 413 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 2: So you got the Bengals coming up. Would you be 414 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: starting Joe Burrow if you were coaching the Bengals. 415 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 7: It's so hard to know, you know, going in there, 416 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 7: I'm not doing the game on Thursday. Jason Garrett'll be 417 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:46,239 Speaker 7: doing that one. But it's it's it's difficult, right, I mean, 418 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 7: you've got a franchise quarterback here, you're not in all 419 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 7: likelihood going anywhere. But the part of that is it's 420 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 7: still possible. 421 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 4: You know. 422 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 7: I know the percent is like one percent that they 423 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 7: do this, but they split with Pittsburgh and they have 424 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 7: two games remaining with the Ravens. So if they were 425 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 7: to beat the Ravens in both games, I mean, the 426 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 7: leader in the division six and five, you know, they're 427 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 7: both six and five, and the Bengals have three wins, 428 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 7: So you knock off the Ravens twice. Who knows? 429 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 4: Is that possible? It's possible. 430 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 7: It's a divisional game, you're still not out of the hunt. 431 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 7: But I have a feeling that Joe Burrow is kind 432 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 7: of that guy that it just kills him to not 433 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 7: be in the lineup where this guy's and we've already 434 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 7: heard a little bit of the rumblings from behind the scenes. 435 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 7: You know what it did for the defense that Joe 436 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 7: Burrow practiced all week last week that he's not given 437 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 7: up on the season and he wanted to play, and 438 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 7: it kind of gave a spark to the whole team. 439 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 7: So I'm assuming the doctors know what they're doing. Would 440 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 7: I do it on its face, No, there just doesn't 441 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 7: seem to be that big a reason to do it. 442 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 7: But it's Joe Burrow, and you know, God bless him, 443 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 7: he's competitive. 444 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got the Ravens twice. You also have the 445 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 2: Dolphins and the Browns and the car So you could 446 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 2: kind of catch lightning in a bottle here and maybe 447 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 2: make it interesting, putting some pressure on the Steelers. But like, 448 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 2: you can't bubble wrap him Chris, like you're paying him 449 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 2: fifty million dollars to be your quarterback. You can't go, well, 450 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 2: we're not going to put him out there because the 451 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 2: games don't mean anything. You still have a fan base. 452 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 2: You got to play Kate as well, you do. 453 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,959 Speaker 7: But the point of it, and only someone who has 454 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 7: lost two Super Bowls could say this, honestly, you only 455 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 7: played to win a championship. 456 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 4: That's it. 457 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 7: It doesn't do you any good to win a game, 458 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 7: to win a season, to have winning record, and we 459 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 7: had a ten and six season. We didn't get to 460 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 7: go to the playoffs. And when you know, everybody was 461 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 7: always crying about that, and but you know, nobody remembers 462 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 7: anything you did if you didn't win at all, They 463 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 7: just don't. I mean I've never had anybody come up 464 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 7: to me and go, oh boy, I remember those two 465 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 7: AFC championship games you guys played, And no, they remember, 466 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 7: Oh I remember when Joe Montana beat you twice in 467 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 7: the Super Bowl. That's that's what they remember. And it's 468 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 7: it's a really you know, I wish I had one 469 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 7: more chance to do it, is the funny part about it. 470 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 7: It's like it's like everybody wants to play to win 471 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 7: the whole thing, the whole thing, and when you don't, 472 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 7: it just doesn't matter. So if Joe Burrow playing this 473 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 7: year somehow hurts his chances of winning it all next year, 474 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 7: that's why I would think about it. 475 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 2: Does it make it any easier that you did lose 476 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 2: to Joe Montana? 477 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 7: No, you know, because really we go through. So I 478 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 7: do games in San Francisco all the time, and you 479 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 7: go through, and of course the Super Bowl trophies are 480 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 7: front and center when you're there. And they had five 481 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 7: Super Bowls and three of them were complete blowouts. They 482 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 7: blew out the competition and two of them were close 483 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 7: games against the So we definitely had a chance. We 484 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 7: had the first one. We were around twenty to nothing 485 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 7: at halftime and still had a chance to win the 486 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 7: game by the end of it. 487 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 4: But yeah, it's uh yeah, so this is your becoming 488 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 4: my therapist. 489 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 2: I was I was going to be your therapist. 490 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 4: Now you're becoming mine. I need I need this. 491 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're talking to Chris Collins where it just completed 492 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: his five hundred career game. It was Sunday night. More 493 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 2: catches in the NFL or more games that you called, 494 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 2: games that I called. I think it was important. You're 495 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: close to five hundred receptions. 496 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 7: Weren't you were seventeen something like. We had a couple 497 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 7: of strike years in there, and yeah, so, I mean 498 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 7: it wasn't like nobody caught, like you could always be 499 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 7: around the leading receiver. 500 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 4: If you caught. 501 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 7: Sixty to seventy passes like that, those are the guys 502 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 7: who were going to the Pro Bowl back then. 503 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 4: Now those are like fourth string guys. It's you know, 504 00:23:59,440 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 4: you know what. 505 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 7: The other part, it's funny. I never had one. I 506 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 7: can't remember a touchdown pass. I'm sure I had one 507 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 7: of under ten yards. 508 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 5: You know. 509 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 7: I was watching DeVante Adams the other night and he 510 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 7: was like quick slant. Jerry Rice would have one. I 511 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 7: never caught a wide receiver screen like the game is 512 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 7: just I never caught a back shoulder throw. Nobody even 513 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 7: invented a back shoulder throw at that time. I was like, 514 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 7: how stupid were we that we didn't think to have 515 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 7: somebody stop on a go route when he was in 516 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 7: position to be able to make the play. Nobody had 517 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 7: the bunch formations where you could get three receivers and 518 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 7: get them out of man to man coverage. I remember 519 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 7: playing the Raiders and then the Cleveland Browns with their 520 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 7: great cornerbacks that they had, and you just lined up 521 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 7: out wide and tried to get open fast, and then 522 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 7: meanwhile they're blissing to their quarterback and getting after him. 523 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 7: It's so funny looking back on the game where it 524 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 7: was and where it is today and the answers that 525 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 7: they have the passing game today. 526 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 4: It's a wonder they ever run the ball at all. 527 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: You're kind of whining here the Super Bowls. You're whining 528 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 2: about not being used correctly. 529 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, but at least I didn't have to keep one 530 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 7: foot on the college. 531 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 2: If the Cowboys beat the Chiefs, finish that sentence. 532 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 7: Pay attention. I don't think they're catching the Eagles I 533 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 7: really don't. But when you have an offense like that, yeah, 534 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 7: pay attention because they did make some moves, right, they 535 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 7: made some moves to improve their defense that was really 536 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 7: pretty bad. And really the first game against the Eagles 537 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 7: wasn't that sort of it wasn't that bad a game. 538 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 7: That was the opening night. So the divisional opponents always 539 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 7: spend a ton of time working on the teams in 540 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 7: their division. So Dallas is the one team that division 541 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 7: should they sneak into the playoffs and you go, you 542 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 7: know who are the favorite right now? You probably say 543 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 7: Philadelphia and the Los Angeles Rams are the two front runners, 544 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 7: and Dallas because they can score points, could have a day, 545 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 7: could have a day against either one of those teams. 546 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: I'm still trying to figure out what's going on with 547 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 2: the Eagles, and they're probably still trying to figure out 548 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 2: does it come down to the offensive line Maybe isn't 549 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: as good as it's been in previous years. 550 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 7: I think that's true. I do think that's true. But 551 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 7: they were great, you know, they were so far superior 552 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 7: than what they had been in the past. And the 553 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 7: other one that I mean, I talked about it on 554 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 7: the air the other night, but Jalen Hurts. I think 555 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 7: to some extent they haven't completely opened up that offense, 556 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 7: and they're going to make the playoffs. There's no way 557 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 7: they're not going to make the playoffs. And the goal 558 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 7: is to get to the playoffs and unleash the hounds 559 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 7: at that point. And so you think about when the 560 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 7: Eagles are great. In my opinion, Eagles are great when 561 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 7: they have not scrambles, which Jalen does, but designated run 562 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 7: plays with him. They run powers, they run read options, 563 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 7: they run various plays. That sets up the run game 564 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 7: because now you've got to leave the backside edge player 565 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 7: there because you know he might hand it off, he 566 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 7: might run the other way off to the right. So 567 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 7: when you get those plays going, when you get those 568 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 7: runs going, even if it's just five per game, it 569 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 7: sets up Saquon Barkley to not have to have that 570 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 7: backside in you're going to have an extra safety come 571 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 7: down in the box to try and stop him from running. 572 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 4: And what happened last year. 573 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 7: Was when Saquon got out, it was against a single 574 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 7: high safety and no single safety ever tackled him. But 575 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 7: now defenses they're getting away with two deep safeties being 576 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 7: back there in the run game and coming down and 577 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 7: now they're able to tackle him and he's getting the 578 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 7: ten fifteen yard runs. He's not getting the seventy yard runs. 579 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 7: And the other part of that is, now you've got 580 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,479 Speaker 7: quarterback running, You've got Saque exploding with big plays, and 581 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 7: now you're setting up what aj Brown does best, which 582 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 7: is play against man coverage. AJ Brown with his in cuts, 583 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 7: with his slants, with his catch and run, he looks 584 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 7: like a tank out there on the field. 585 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 4: Now you get those two. 586 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 7: Things going, which they had last year, and now you 587 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 7: got aj going. And now's the Dante Smith is, you know, 588 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 7: the fourth thing you got to stop. And so he 589 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 7: gets man coverage and he's catching the bomb. So I 590 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 7: think when they get to the playoffs, maybe I'm completely wrong, 591 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 7: maybe I'm completely out of my mind. 592 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 4: I do think you're going to. 593 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 7: See Jalen Hirch run on some of those designated plays. 594 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 7: More just set up everything else. 595 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: Did Tom Brady reach out to you about how to 596 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 2: become an analyst? 597 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 4: He did? Yeah, Yeah. Did you reach out to you? 598 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: He did not, because I wouldn't have the firsthand knowledge 599 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 2: of that. I did talk to Drew Brees a little 600 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 2: bit about it. But that's you know, you're in the studio, 601 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: and I said, it's so sterile there. You've got to 602 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 2: create excitement in the studio when you go to the 603 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: game that allows you to be as close to the 604 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 2: action as possibly playing. What did you tell Brady. 605 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 4: To go to the studio? Honestly, it's exactly. 606 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 7: But it's the same thing I told Peyton Manning, same 607 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 7: thing I told all of them. I said, you know, 608 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 7: the studio is something that what are you preparing for. 609 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 7: You've got like five or six different hits during the 610 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 7: course of the show. You know what you're going to 611 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 7: talk about going into it. You can research it easily. 612 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 7: It's not that big a deal. Now you do have 613 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 7: to know a little something about all the teams, but 614 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 7: that's not too bad when you do the game and 615 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 7: you are starting from scratch every single week. I mean, 616 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,719 Speaker 7: we did Washington a couple of weeks ago, but so 617 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 7: much which has changed during the course of the last 618 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 7: couple of weeks. With that, now you got to go 619 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 7: back and I got to be able to study Marcus Mariodin. 620 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 7: I gotta because now he's taken over at the quarterback. 621 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, but this is what Tom did on a weekly basis. 622 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, but here's here's what I tell him. And the 623 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 7: same thing I told pay Man. I got to look, 624 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 7: you're used to getting ready for one side of the ball, 625 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 7: your offense against their defense. Now you have six sides 626 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 7: of the ball that you got to get ready for. 627 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 7: Now you've got to get ready for the backup offensive tackle. 628 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 7: And who's the assistant weight coach and who's the general 629 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 7: manager and what moves might they be making and blah 630 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 7: blah blah blah blah, And it's work, I mean. And 631 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 7: Tom God beloved him. That's what he said. He goes, 632 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 7: I love the work. I love the grind. I missed 633 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 7: the grind. I want to do that. And I go, okay, 634 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 7: I said, now let me lay the last bit of you. 635 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 7: Now we've got You're used to playing eight road games 636 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 7: a year. You are now going to have twenty two 637 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 7: road games. You got twenty two straight road games. I 638 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 7: know you want to be around your kids.

When night we did 641 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 7: the pregame show, we would go in on Saturday. Now 642 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 7: I go in on Thursday night.

Somehow he went from he was going 646 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 7: to call games, just sitting in his basement with his 647 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 7: brother screwing around and getting Emmy awards. I have no idea. 648 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 7: He's the smartest human being I ever met my life. 649 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: Okay, but did you. 650 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 4: Brady wanted it? He wanted it. 651 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: Did he try to talk him out of it and 652 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 2: tell him to do studio instead of going on the road. 653 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 4: Did I do that? 654 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 2: Did you try to? 655 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 4: Yes? 656 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 2: Every one of them. 657 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 4: Have called me. 658 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 7: I go, I go, look, just bear with me. I'm 659 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 7: going to try and talk you out of what you're 660 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 7: talking about here, and and I give him the same 661 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 7: I give them all the same spiel, every single one. 662 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 7: I'm because I don't want them coming back to me going, 663 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 7: oh man, my life was ruined. I'm living on the road. 664 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 7: You know, I might as well be a baseball player. 665 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 7: You know, I'm never home, you know. So I didn't 666 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 7: want I didn't want to hear that back. Now, getting 667 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 7: to the stadium on Sunday and calling a game is 668 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 7: way better than being in the studium for all the 669 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 7: reasons you just said, because you're sitting there and you 670 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 7: get the action, you get the excitement of being at 671 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 7: the ballpark. You get what we pay for right as fans. 672 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 7: How many times have you paid to have a seat 673 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 7: in the stadium for the big events? And I'm there 674 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 7: every Sunday night. It's fantastic. Now, you know, you talk 675 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 7: for three hours. I mean the President of the United 676 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 7: States doesn't get to talk for three straight hours at 677 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 7: any point during the week. So when you mess something up, 678 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 7: you know, you say something stupid or something that you 679 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 7: didn't you know, mean to insult somebody, but you do. 680 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 7: Then you pay the price and you end up in 681 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 7: the blend ur of social media for a little while, 682 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 7: and then somebody else does something. 683 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 2: So you're whining about being on the road for twenty 684 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 2: two weeks? Do you want to be back in the studio? 685 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 2: Is that what you're saying? Wow, Collin's worth coming off 686 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: the road question mark. No, you're up to five hundred. 687 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 4: I mean, well, what am I going to do? Shoot 688 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 4: for a thousand? 689 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, no, you can go back to the studio now. 690 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, I'm perfectly happy. 691 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 5: I don't I'm looking. 692 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm in, I'm really we have a great time. 693 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 7: You have a road family. I mean, you know what 694 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 7: it's like, you have a road family. I mean it's 695 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 7: like you have people I live with literally for six 696 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 7: months out of the year, and you love them and 697 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 7: you're happy to be with them and the whole thing. 698 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 7: But I just think that quarterbacks in general, especially ones 699 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 7: that have had the careers those guys have had, they're 700 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 7: used to a certain way of life and they're not. 701 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 7: You know, it's it's worked. I mean, you go to 702 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 7: the practice facility, you sit around. You got to get 703 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 7: there early for the head coach, then you stay another 704 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 7: two hours afterwards for the quarterback who's coming out of 705 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 7: a massage, and you know, I mean, there's it's you know, 706 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 7: it's different. 707 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 2: It's real quickly. 708 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 4: You're turning me into a whiner here. I don't want 709 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 4: to be a whiner. 710 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 2: You complained about Montana, and you complained.

So, 727 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 2: Lebron's back, Luca's back. Are the Lakers back? 728 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 5: Looking at their record, it seems that they're back. 729 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 8: Yes, I think now JJ Reddick has his full compliment 730 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 8: of players. The question I think going forward is how 731 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 8: is he going to navigate? 732 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 5: You've got Luca averaging thirty four and a half. 733 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:39,240 Speaker 8: You've got Austin Reeves the second leading score at around 734 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 8: twenty eight. I had to go back and look at 735 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 8: this and maybe you can answer this. 736 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 5: When was the last time It's never? 737 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 8: When was the last time Lebron James was the fifth 738 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 8: leading scorer on his team. 739 00:35:55,719 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 5: He's averaging fourteen points. So how does JJ. 740 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 8: They navigate that having an All NBA player just a 741 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 8: year ago second team in Lebron, and now you incorporate 742 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 8: him within the Lakers structures who've gotten off to a 743 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 8: great start. 744 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:12,720 Speaker 5: Whin there's a four straight. 745 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 2: But this could be a good thing. 746 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 5: Reg It's a great thing. It's a great problem to have, 747 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 5: and we saw a little bit. 748 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 8: I just recently watched the back to back series they 749 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 8: had with Utah, and that second game in Utah, the 750 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 8: last two minutes were a little kind of wild because 751 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 8: they didn't know it was between Austin Reeves and Luca 752 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 8: and Lebron, and all they kept running was high screen 753 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 8: and roll with Lebron being the screener. At some point 754 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 8: when Lebron has his legs, he has his wind, and he's. 755 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 5: Back in full shape, no back issues. 756 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 8: You assume at some point Lebron's gonna have the ball 757 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 8: with some of these highest screening roles. So once they 758 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 8: figure out that dynamic of crunch time, they still won 759 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 8: the game, don't get me wrong, but they've got to 760 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 8: figure out their closing. 761 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 5: Moment and action between those three. 762 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 2: Players Okay, give me the hierarchy in the West. Best 763 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 2: teams in the West right now? Who would be number one? 764 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 2: Aside from Okac Okay. 765 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 8: No question Oka, see yeah, then Jokic and Denver, and 766 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 8: then right right after them is the Houston Rockets. I 767 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 8: think Houston is playing off the charts right now at 768 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 8: both ends of the floor. And I think they figured out. 769 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 8: You know, we were wondering, like, how would Lebron fit 770 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 8: in with Luca and Austinees. We were kind of wondering, 771 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 8: and older Kevin Durant, how is he going to fit 772 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 8: in with this young team? And it's been perfect him 773 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 8: and Shane Goon. I'm in Thompson to me, I think 774 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 8: come playoff times. I still have questions about that point guard. 775 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 8: But they figured it out so far and they're winning 776 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,240 Speaker 8: ball games. So to me, those are the top three teams. 777 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 2: Can the Thunder win seventy games? 778 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 5: They could if they wanted to. 779 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 8: I don't think that's a priority for them. 780 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,240 Speaker 5: Again, and they're doing this without Jacob. 781 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 8: By the way, guys, and just like last year they 782 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 8: did that hot start without Chet. Chet played the first game, 783 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 8: got hurt and missed, you know, like fifty games after 784 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 8: that or something, and they continue to win, so they're 785 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 8: only going to get better once Jalen Williams gets back. 786 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 8: Could they win fifty or seventy and maybe go for 787 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 8: the Golden State Warriors record? 788 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 5: Perhaps, but I don't think that's a priority. 789 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 8: Being healthy, playing well going into the playoffs is probably 790 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 8: and getting overall number one seeds because as we saw 791 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 8: last year, you want a Game seven in your building 792 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 8: and having the overall best record allows you to do that. 793 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: Are you on the Piston spandwagon? 794 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 5: I am the Pistons. 795 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 2: Where do they rank in the East? Then who's the 796 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 2: best team in the East? 797 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 5: No question, it's Detroit. 798 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 8: And what I love about them defensively they bring back 799 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 8: that same identity from the Isaiah Thomas and Bill Lambier 800 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 8: bad Boys to the Chauncey Billups, Rip Hamilton Tayshawn Prince. 801 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 8: They have a defensive identity, but more importantly, they have 802 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 8: a go to guy in Cave Cunningham. I loved the 803 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 8: Duncan Robinson pickup a guy that is a catch and 804 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 8: shoot type guy, but he's added to his game. He 805 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 8: doesn't hurt you defensively, and Jalen Durnham is an All 806 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 8: Star in my opinion, this year, he's made the biggest 807 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 8: leap in terms of his development, controlling the paint and 808 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 8: being able to score as well. To me, they are, 809 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 8: no question right now, the best team in the Eastern Conference. 810 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 2: How did the Nets get this bad, Reggie? 811 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 8: I think it all went to when they Katie Kyrie, 812 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 8: James Harden and a lot of trades, bad trades. 813 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 5: And it is what it is. 814 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 8: It's just bad trades, bad management, bad scouting. 815 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 2: But they're one of the most irrelevant teams in all 816 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 2: of pro sports, right Yes, I mean they're terrible. They're there. 817 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 2: They got Michael Porter Junior and that's it. 818 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 8: I will say this, there was a time if Kevin 819 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 8: Durant's foot or feet are not on the line, they 820 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 8: could have an NBA championship. 821 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's such a long time ago. 822 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 5: It is. But it's ebbs and flows with some of 823 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 5: these organizations. 824 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 2: I feel like I could have done a better job 825 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 2: running than Thatt I do. I'm barely kidding. 826 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 5: No, you're to me. 827 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 8: Bad management, that scouting, it's just right now, it's a 828 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 8: bad organization. 829 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 2: What do you make of the Kenyan Martin Draymond Green 830 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 2: back and forth? Where Okay, let me see if I 831 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 2: got this right? 832 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 5: Is that it up? Okay? 833 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 2: Kenyan Martin, former number one overall pick, said Draymond isn't tough, 834 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:22,879 Speaker 2: he's calculated. Draymond responds by calling Kenyon Martin an underachiever 835 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 2: for only making one All Star team. Kenyon Martin responded 836 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 2: by naming two hundred power forwards better than Draymond Green. 837 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 2: How did we get here? 838 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 5: Right? Look? 839 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 8: Both of these guys from Michigan right. And I posted 840 00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 8: a comment after I saw the response from from Kenyan 841 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,919 Speaker 8: Martin about the two hundred power forwards that were better 842 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 8: than Draymond, saying, and I'm quoting Rodney Keane, can. 843 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 5: We all just get along? Right? 844 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 8: Because both of these guys I played against Kmart in 845 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 8: his era, very tough dude over a number one pick, 846 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 8: brought it every night. And I've covered Draymond Green throughout 847 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:10,839 Speaker 8: his whole illustrious career. And to me, it, I mean 848 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 8: it's popcorn worthy. Don't get me wrong, it's it's fun 849 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,720 Speaker 8: to watch the back and forth. But I just wish 850 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 8: these two either Kmart needs to go on Draymond's podcast 851 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 8: or Draymond needs to go on Kenyan's podcast. They need 852 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 8: to air this out because it's getting a little ridiculous now. Personally, 853 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 8: if I was Draymond, I never would have responded because 854 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 8: you've got the rings. 855 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 5: And right now. 856 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 8: It looks like this is almost like the Drake Knda 857 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 8: Lamar beef right, and right now it kind of looks 858 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 8: like Kmart is winning. 859 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 5: I don't like the bo outlaw better than Draymond Green. 860 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 8: Evan Rettie Evan's better than Draymond Green. 861 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 5: Now some of them, don't. 862 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 2: He had on June? I mean, come on, man, okay? 863 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 2: Is Draymond a fake tough guy? Is he calculated? 864 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 3: Meaning? 865 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 5: What does that mean? 866 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 2: That means that he is very good at engagement? 867 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 8: Maybe he just hasn't tell I think what kmart is 868 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 8: saying is that he hasn't started something with the with 869 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 8: the wrong person, like for like for instance, for instance, 870 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 8: you remember when Boogie Cousins DeMarcus Cousins went against Zach 871 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 8: Randolph and was trying that with Zach Randolph, and Zach 872 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 8: Randolph said, I. 873 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 5: Put fear in the bullies. He picked on the wrong. 874 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 8: One because de Marcus used to go after just about everyone, 875 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 8: but he wouldn't go. 876 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 5: After Zach Randolph. 877 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 8: Right, And I think that's what Kmart is saying, like, 878 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 8: you're not going after the real tough, You're not. 879 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 5: Going after all the enforcers. And I just wish these. 880 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 8: Two would get in the room, hug it out, talk 881 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 8: it out, podcast it out. 882 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 5: Whatever these kids do today, figure. 883 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 2: It out talking to Reggie Miller. Will be on the 884 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 2: call tonight. It's a double header Coach to Coast Lebron 885 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 2: Luca Lakers against James Harden and the Clippers Battle of 886 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 2: La at eleven pm Eastern on NBC and Peacock. How 887 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: do you think we're going to look back on Nikola Jokic, 888 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 2: like historically, where does he rank? Where will he ranked? 889 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 2: You think when it's all shut and done, the. 890 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 8: Only thing missing from his resume is chips. He's done 891 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 8: everything personally, He's got all the MVPs, He's have all 892 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 8: the numbers and will have all the numbers to vacuum. 893 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 8: The only thing that will solidify him amongst the greats 894 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 8: are championships. I think we The knock on Wilt Chamberlain 895 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 8: is that he only gotten wander two, right, and you 896 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 8: look at Kareem who has six. 897 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 5: You've got Jill Russell who has what eight or nine. 898 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 8: Hakeem has too, So I think the only knock with 899 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 8: the Joker are chips. 900 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 5: So if he wins Chips, he's in. 901 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,879 Speaker 8: He will be in a separate wing of the Hall 902 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 8: of Fame because his accolades and his resume will be 903 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 8: ridiculous at the end. 904 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 5: Of the day. 905 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm wondering about this. We do this with 906 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 2: NFL quarterbacks. Hey, you got one, but then if you 907 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:32,720 Speaker 2: get to two, like, you really separate yourself. Whereas Joker 908 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 2: is not going to win four or five championships. But 909 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 2: if he wins, I think he's got to get the three. 910 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 2: If he gets the three, if you give him three 911 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 2: and you give him he might end up with five MVPs. 912 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 2: So three titles, five MVPs, now all you. 913 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:56,280 Speaker 8: Can make a case for him to be the greatest 914 00:45:56,320 --> 00:46:00,359 Speaker 8: center of all time if he gets three rings. If 915 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 8: he wins three rings, he is the greatest center of 916 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 8: all time over three in today's climate. 917 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 2: Yes, okay, we're taking Willed and Bill Russell out of this. 918 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 8: I'm certainly taking Bill Russell out. Remember we talked about this. Yeah, 919 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,440 Speaker 8: it's hard to put players from the sixties. It's seventy 920 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 8: five on. 921 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 5: Okay, So to me, it's Kareem as the greatest and 922 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 5: then Shack. 923 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 8: He's competing against those two guys in terms of who 924 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 8: is the greatest center. 925 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 5: If he wins three, you can. 926 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 8: Make a case he's the greatest because his numbers will 927 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 8: back that up. 928 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 2: Because I'm trying to think any other center, like, he's 929 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 2: almost the first guy on the moon with big men 930 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 2: who's getting average in a triple double. 931 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 5: And to me, his passing is what's separating him. His 932 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 5: rebounding is there, his scoring is there. 933 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 8: It's the passing right and for a big man to 934 00:46:58,000 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 8: average a triple double, and it looks like he's going 935 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 8: to do it in back to back years and looks 936 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 8: like he's going to pick up another MVP the Nuggets, 937 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 8: which it looks like there will be a top four 938 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 8: seed right now. 939 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 5: I believe they're two. 940 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 2: But it's almost like he's created a system like Peyton 941 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 2: Manning did. Peyton Manning redefined the quarterback play by going 942 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 2: to the line of scrimmage and he created his own system. 943 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 2: Jokers created his own system, his own ecosystem. There that 944 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 2: you got a point center who also shoots great from three, 945 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 2: you know, rebound steals, all of those different things. 946 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 8: Well, we talked about the Nets, bad management that surrounding 947 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 8: incorporating great The Nuggets have gotten right. 948 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 5: They revamped their whole team. 949 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 8: They got rid of Michael Porter Junior who we mentioned 950 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 8: going to the Nets, and now you've got You've got 951 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 8: players around him that compliment the two best players, Jamal 952 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 8: Murray and Jokic, and you. 953 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,840 Speaker 5: Know, bringing back Bruce Brown fantastic. 954 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 8: I just think the only thing missing from the Big 955 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 8: Fella is ships. 956 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 5: But here's the problem. In a loaded Western conference. 957 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,359 Speaker 8: The team that's ahead of you, they have figured out 958 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 8: how to win just like you did a couple of 959 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 8: years ago. They want a chip just like you did 960 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 8: a few years ago, and they will be a hard out. 961 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 5: They're just as big. 962 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,479 Speaker 8: And yes, you took them to seven games last year, 963 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 8: but again they won. 964 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 5: So that's the problem. You have that team in your 965 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,399 Speaker 5: conference now that you've got to go through. 966 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,439 Speaker 2: If you were getting traded and you had to pick 967 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:50,840 Speaker 2: between Brooklyn or Washington, the Wizards or is there a 968 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 2: worse one than that is New Orleans in there. 969 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,759 Speaker 8: If I had to pick a team right now that 970 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 8: I would want to play for and today. 971 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 2: Today at least want to play for. 972 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 8: I would probably say. I mean Brooklyn, you're in New York, 973 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 8: so that's kind of cool. 974 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:18,399 Speaker 5: Washington. I would throw Washington, New Orleans in there.
