When I say everybody got this 27 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: one wrong. 28 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 3: You know, I get it. 29 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: You sit behind the microphone, you make predictions, you say this. 30 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: But everybody got on the bandwagon. I'm talking about newspaper 31 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 2: guy's columns, you know, tweets, social media, you name it. 32 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 3: Everybody went crazy. 33 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 2: They had arch Maning winning the Heisman Trophy back in April. 34 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: They did last April didn't happen. Okay, he was picked 35 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: as a preseason Heuightsman favorite. 36 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 3: Maybe it was his name. I don't know, but I 37 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 3: will tell you this much. 38 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: Looking up his stats in two games against Power four teams, 39 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: arch Manning was a combined thirty three for fifty nine 40 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,639 Speaker 2: four thirty three, three touchdowns and three ironts. Played against 41 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: the miners of Texas al Paso eleven for twenty five 42 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: or one hundred and fourteen yards. All right, okay, yesterday 43 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: somewhat decent Texas beat Oklahoma. He was twenty one for 44 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: twenty seven, one hundred and sixty six yards and a touchdown. 45 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 2: I don't get it. What's the love affair this guy? Basically, 46 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,919 Speaker 2: the hype was off the charts, off the charts, really, 47 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: and everybody was wrong. And it's about time they came forth. 48 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: And said, you know what, I was wrong. I was wrong. 49 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 3: Say it. 50 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: I want to hear it. It's definitely going to happen. 51 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: I mean, really and truly, that's just just the way 52 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: it is, right. 53 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, this is what it is. 54 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 5: I mean, the thing about arch Manning is he has 55 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,839 Speaker 5: a great last name, and with the great last name, 56 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 5: because you know, Peyton was so successful in ELI, may 57 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 5: also be a Hall of famer that everyone assumed that. Look, 58 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 5: it's in the blood lines, it's the legacy. He's going 59 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 5: to carry on the tradition because he is someone who's 60 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 5: been talked about so much from the time he was 61 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 5: in high school to them making his entuay to Texas. 62 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 5: There's a natural assumption that he was going to look 63 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 5: like Peyton in ELI when he took the field. The athleticism, 64 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 5: the flashes, the little pit that you saw when he 65 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 5: was backing up quin yours. You expected to see that 66 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 5: fully kind of full skill when he had an opportunity 67 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 5: to start, and we haven't seen that. That said, he's 68 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 5: shown some progress, he's shown some flashes in those things, 69 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 5: but he'll never be able to play up to the 70 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 5: hype that preceded his arrival as a big time player. 71 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 2: Right, and I can't why why were people on that bandwagon? 72 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: Why was he being hyped? Was it the name? Was 73 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 3: it just a name name? 74 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just a name. It's the name. He's a Manning. 75 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 5: And so you think about it, think about the legacy 76 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 5: Arch Manning, then Payting and Eli make it and not 77 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 5: only make it, but make it him play like a 78 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 5: gold jacket levels and then you have the next you 79 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. So when you think about those 80 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 5: three people like Arch Manning college football Hall of Famer, 81 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 5: you think about the two sons, Payton and Eli, who 82 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 5: appear to be destined to both be Pro football Hall 83 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 5: of famers. I mean, it's natural to put those expectations 84 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 5: on Arch just given the legacy and the bloodlines. 85 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 3: I hear what you're saying. 86 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: Look, I'm not here to kind of smack around people 87 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: that make predictions because I do what you do. 88 00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: We all do it, and it happens. 89 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: But you know, this train that was just rolling down 90 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: the hill like a snowball coming down where Archmaning has 91 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: to be discussed because it's embarrassing. 92 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 3: But that's not alone. There's more. 93 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: There's more to come right now because the preseason talk 94 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: of the season was that Texas would be the best 95 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: team in the country. The preseason talk was that Penn 96 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 2: State would be national champions and Clemson will be back 97 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: to full strength. Okay, the last time I looked in 98 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: the preseason. Okay, now they will rank one to two 99 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 2: and four. Last week, okay, this last week, six weeks on. Texas, 100 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: Penn State, and Clemson have really collapsed in the AP's 101 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 2: latest poll. Coming into yesterday's games, none of them were 102 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: even listed in the top twenty five. And it's the 103 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 2: first time since nineteen eighty four that three programs ranked 104 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 2: in the top four before the season began each picked 105 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 2: up two losses in such a small time. I mean, 106 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 2: it's amazing. No, so I ask you, because you're the 107 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 2: football mave and you know it all. How do these 108 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 2: teams look so good before the season started, and the 109 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: especially Penn State, you lose to Northwestern, Oh my goodness, 110 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: they must be going nuts over there in state college. 111 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 5: I mean, look, here's the thing. The predictions are the 112 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 5: predictions without seeing the squads. You don't even have spring 113 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 5: football to see what the final product looks like before 114 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 5: it takes to fall, So you don't know, these are 115 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 5: merely guesses, and a lot of times people guess on 116 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 5: the brand name. 117 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: There's a natural assumption that Penn State would be. 118 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 5: Really good because they had so many people opt back 119 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 5: in that could have went to the pros. You had 120 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 5: a quarterback who people were talking about being a first 121 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 5: round pick. 122 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: And Drewala, So there's a lot of. 123 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 5: Expectation based on the continuation of what should have been 124 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 5: a program that was on the rise with a bunch 125 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 5: of pros propelling it. Clemson has always been in a conversation, 126 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 5: and because they had a quarterback that people were excited about, 127 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 5: kay Klipnick, there's an expectation that they were going to 128 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 5: be able to play at a high level. Not only 129 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 5: because of the quarterback, but they had a few defensive 130 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 5: players that had first round grades coming out over the summer. 131 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 5: They just didn't play like that out the gate. You know, 132 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 5: you just think about all of this, But all of 133 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 5: this is our front on the media, because this is 134 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 5: what we do. We throw our predictions and we kind 135 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 5: of set the floor for expectations for the public. But 136 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 5: a lot of times we don't know, and the college 137 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 5: coaches don't know what they have until they start playing. 138 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but now you know the media people, the national 139 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: media people, the ones that I'm seeing hearing and reading 140 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 2: that they're kind of taking a step back saying, well, 141 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 2: you know, I know they get into the portal, but 142 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 2: it takes time. No, the portal should be something that 143 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 2: you pick a player and all of a sudden you 144 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: go for nothing to good because your your players. 145 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: Right, No, that's that doesn't that's not right. 146 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 5: It's like free agency and whatever, because just because you 147 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 5: take a player who's in the portal, you can't just 148 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 5: instantly put them in your program and think that it's 149 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 5: all good. Like that would be like if we're playing 150 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 5: with robots. We're playing with people, Like there's chemistry and 151 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 5: connectivity that has to exist. 152 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: Like it's a team. 153 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 5: It doesn't just mean you can't just plug all these 154 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 5: people in and it goes. 155 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: You're not collecting talent. 156 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 5: You're building a team, and a team has to operate 157 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 5: as one that takes chemistry and connection and that is 158 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 5: built over time. If we're just collecting talent like we're 159 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 5: an AAU team, I mean, if you have the best 160 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 5: talent of all the talented teams, maybe it works like that, 161 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 5: but the margin for error is thinner because the talent 162 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 5: is diverse, it's spread out amongst all the teams. So 163 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 5: I think when people make that assumption that just because 164 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 5: you're in the portal, it's going to be better, it 165 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 5: doesn't always mean that. And also a lot of the 166 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 5: people that are in the portal, A lot of players 167 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 5: that are in the portal are disgruntled, malcontents. They have 168 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 5: daddyers and managers that are heavily guiding and influencing their career. 169 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 5: And when you take that on, you have to take 170 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 5: all of that on. That also impacts the way that 171 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 5: your program is built in the program operates. So yeah, 172 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 5: I think people make the assumption that the portal is 173 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 5: all good. 174 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: It can be in some cases, but not always. 175 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 3: I learned one thing and I learned this from you, 176 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 3: so I give you the credit. Pat you on the back. 177 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: You know, I look at talent and we always say 178 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 2: it's personnel. I get it, it's personnel, but I think 179 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: even more than personnel, it's the chef, it's the cook, 180 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 2: it's the coach that takes that personnel blends them together. 181 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: I'm looking at school, I'm looking at the pros. You know, 182 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 2: your team in Jacksonville new coach, almost similar personnel. 183 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: Now they're a contender. 184 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: Look at Detroit for years years they were terrible, right, 185 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 2: I mean, look at now the head coach. 186 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 3: Now the Detroit Lions are a contender. 187 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: Now. 188 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: I look at Indiana football. 189 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: That was a basketball school for eons, right, it's a 190 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: football school right now. Why Kirk Signetti, I mean when 191 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: he came on there, they laughed at him. He said, 192 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 2: we're gonna win. They're winning right now. The game yesterday, 193 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: the biggest game of the day, seventh ranked Indiana beat 194 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 2: number three organ I mean that in Oregon, that's tremendous. 195 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: And Kurt Signetti was interviewed for the head football coaching 196 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: job at the University of Cincinnati and they couldn't get 197 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 2: the job there. 198 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: Lucky for him. 199 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 2: Lucky for him, there's playing more money and more boosters 200 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 2: in Bloomington, Indiana than in Cincinnati, Ohio. 201 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 5: Anyway, Yeah, but let's talk really about why Indiana was winning. Initially, 202 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 5: he basically took his entire team from James Madison and 203 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 5: dropped it into Indiana his first year. Because he talked 204 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 5: about the way that you win. You have to have 205 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 5: chemistry in those things. You have to have guys that 206 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 5: know your system. So he basically took a team that 207 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 5: knew his system and they leveled up and played upper level, 208 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 5: which is great. They played a soft schedule the first year, 209 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 5: they won some games those things. This was a great 210 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 5: test for him. This was a coming out party for 211 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 5: Indiana because they knocked off a team that everyone hails 212 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 5: and celebrates in a coach that people celebrate in Dan Lanning. 213 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 5: But he got a jump started and he continues to 214 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 5: jump started with people that he already knew. So it's 215 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 5: not about the recruits and those things. It's about the 216 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 5: puppeteer being able to put it all together. But it's 217 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 5: easier to put together if you already know the people 218 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 5: that are coming in. That's why it's been successful. That's 219 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 5: why it is being able to sustain this stuff over 220 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 5: the first two years. The key for him Indiana is 221 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 5: Kenny sustain. 222 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: It over the long call. 223 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,479 Speaker 5: When you get out of the portal and it becomes 224 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 5: transient and it becomes transformational where you're having to bring 225 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 5: recruits and all that in, will Signetty be able to last. 226 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 5: But right now it looks great and he had a 227 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 5: great performance against Oregon. 228 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: Yesterday, who's just a six and zero, and I will 229 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 2: tell you this much. You know, can he sustain it? 230 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: I would say this, you start early, you get the 231 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 2: kids from James Madison, you start winning, okay, And everybody 232 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: was kind of questioning do they deserve to be in 233 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 2: the college playoffs? 234 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: Are they that good? 235 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: They made a statement yesterday that may have been the 236 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: biggest football win in that school's history. But then again, 237 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 2: you got a high school kid right now looking at that, 238 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: especially in the state of Indiana. I don't know how 239 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: good high school football is in the state of Indiana, 240 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: but they're gonna want to go there now. Everybody wants 241 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 2: to be part of a winning team. They really do 242 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: what that defense did yesterday, I was shocked. I don't 243 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 2: watch Indiana a lot. I really don't. Against Oregon, they 244 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 2: held Look to what d On thirty carries. That's unbelievable 245 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: and the interceptions tremendous defense. And to me, defense really 246 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 2: and truly is something you got to want to play. 247 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 2: I don't think it's coached that much. I think you've 248 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: got to want to play defense. 249 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 5: I mean, I think everything is coach but yeah, you 250 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 5: have to want to play defense. You have to find 251 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 5: guys that have been longtime defensive players. Because everyone is 252 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 5: fascinated with the ball, most guys kind of lean towards 253 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 5: the offense, and what you find are sometimes you have guys, 254 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 5: particularly in the secondary, that is not as trained at 255 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: their respective positions because they spent their young childhood growing 256 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 5: up playing offense, offense, offense, So you have to teach them. 257 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 5: But when you have great teachers, a staff for the 258 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 5: great teachers, and you have some mad scientists that can 259 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 5: put the x's and oos together, you can't get a 260 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 5: product that looks like the product we're seeing in Indiana. 261 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 3: Okay, we talk about Indiana. 262 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 2: I mean right now, they're going to be in the 263 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: top five this week, there's no doubt about that, and 264 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a big shake. But the biggest shocker 265 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 2: I think is Penn State. I mean losing to UCLA, 266 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: using to Northwest? How does Penn State lose to Northwestern 267 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: twenty two to twenty one. Now Penn State is three 268 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 2: and three, all in three in the Big ten, and 269 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: now they're talking about the buyout for James Franklin. I'm 270 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 2: not saying he's a bad coach, but the point is this, 271 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 2: you gotta win to keep your job. You gotta win good, 272 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: bitter and different. You could be a bad coach and 273 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: be lucky and win, or a good coach and just 274 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: like fall on your face and they got injuries there, 275 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 2: I get it, But to lose to Northwestern, please, that 276 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 2: to me is inexcusable. 277 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I mean, I just hope Penn State will 278 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 5: fire it. I just wish they would get over because 279 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 5: I'm so tired of hearing about the James Franklin Penn 280 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 5: State thing. 281 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: They've lost three in a row. They shouldn't lose to the Northwestern. 282 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 5: They shouldn't have lost to UCLA, and maybe they should 283 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 5: move on. Maybe it's time to move on. They can 284 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 5: get a new voice and they can be with Penn 285 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 5: State has always been doing a Joe paternal era. Okay, 286 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 5: that's it, Like, I mean, this is the most successful 287 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 5: era that Penn State has ever had ever And so 288 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 5: if they. 289 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: Want to move on from him, it's great. He can 290 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: go somewhere else. 291 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 5: They can find somebody else to do it, just like 292 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 5: Bill O'Brien had them at a little over five hundred. 293 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 5: Like it's fine, Like they'll talk about Matt rule maybe 294 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 5: coming from Nebraska, but Mattrul has never won a national championship. 295 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: Mattrul has always had to start out bad. 296 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 5: So whoever it is that the Penn State people find, 297 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 5: I hope they find someone that makes them happy because 298 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 5: I am really tired of him about the James Franklin thing. Yeah, 299 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 5: they lose Drew Allen, the quarterback. Normly, when you lose 300 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 5: your quarterback, you seeing your season goes down the tubes 301 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 5: and we'll see if he's able to pull it out. 302 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 5: But yeah, they shouldn't lose to those teams. They lost 303 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 5: three in a row. And I think right now in 304 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 5: the state of college football, if you lose three games 305 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 5: in a row, everybody should be fired. That's why they're 306 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 5: on Debo Swingey, That's why they were on Kaitlin de 307 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 5: boor early at Alabama. No one should ever lose in 308 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 5: college football if not a sapireable defense. 309 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: First of all, I don't think they should fire any 310 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: coach during the season. I think what Virginia did that 311 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: early on this year, I mean, that's ridiculous. You fire 312 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 2: a coach during the season, be an NFL or college 313 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: theseas is down the cropper. 314 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. 315 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: And you know what, it's like it's like when you're 316 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: in school and you get a substitute teacher and the 317 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: teachers turns his back on you. You're throwing the races 318 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: at his head. I mean, it's chaos, That's what it is. 319 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: Don't you agree Firing a coach in the middle of 320 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 2: the season is chaos. 321 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: I mean not really. 322 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 5: I mean the teams that fired the coaches that responded 323 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 5: to what you talk about Ucla, they fired the coach. 324 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 5: They played better. You think about Virginia Tech, they fired 325 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 5: their coach. They had a little bomp out of it. Look, 326 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 5: I think you should fire the coach whenever you feel 327 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 5: like the progress has stalled. As you were telling me 328 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 5: James Franklin and those guys, they lost three in a 329 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 5: row early in the year. When Clemson was losing, it 330 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 5: seems like people wanted a new voice. I think you 331 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 5: fire people when the fans grow tired of the current 332 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 5: program and there doesn't appear to be any growth or progress. 333 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 5: So when you do that, it gives you an opportunity 334 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 5: to get a jump start on the candidates. You may 335 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 5: lose a bunch of players because the transfer porter opens 336 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 5: for thirty days after firing. But yeah, if you feel 337 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 5: like you go move on, don't waste time. As soon 338 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 5: as you feel the urge. I think people should pull 339 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 5: the plug on the experiment. 340 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 2: Penn State became the first FBS team in the last 341 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 2: thirty years to lose consecutive games as at least a 342 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: twenty point favorite. That's a bad deal right there. So 343 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: Vegas was heard yesterday too. So now they're writing about, 344 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 2: you know, the buyout for Penn State with James Franklin. 345 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: His contract pays him eight million a year through the 346 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: twenty thirty one season, plus a five hundred thousand dollars 347 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: retention bonus. So to fire him during the season, Penn 348 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: State would need to pay him fifty six million dollars, including. 349 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 3: What he's already been paid up to this point. All 350 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 3: right now. 351 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: If the school wants to wait till after the year, 352 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: but they still want to fire him prior to next season, 353 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 2: they'd have to pay him forty eight million. Who started 354 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: this buyout deal? Because it's almost like it's almost like 355 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: an anchor. I mean, you can't get rid of these guys, 356 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: I mean forty eight million. If they want to fire 357 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 2: him before next season, that's absurd, isn't it. 358 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 5: I mean what's the point of having a contract if 359 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 5: you don't want to honor the contract. So while that's 360 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 5: not the contract, if you don't, if you don't have 361 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 5: a buyout, then why are we committing to a contract. 362 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 5: The buyout is part of protecting the coach from being 363 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 5: fired and make sure he guess is But the buyout 364 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 5: also has terms where the coach has to pay a certain. 365 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: Amount before he leaves. 366 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 5: That's the point of having a contract so both parties 367 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 5: can honor it. They put that in to protect themselves, 368 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 5: but also to protect the coach. If you want to 369 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 5: move up, then it'll be If you want to move 370 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 5: on from a coach, then it's up to the alumni 371 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 5: base to boost the club, to pony up the funds 372 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 5: to move on, and then pony up more funds to 373 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 5: get a new coach. It's expensive when you make decisions 374 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 5: that come back to bite you, and if you feel 375 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 5: like you didn't hire the right person, this is what happens. 376 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 5: Is punitive for not hiring the right people and not 377 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 5: supporting the right people as they're trying to progress the 378 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 5: program right. 379 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 2: And I tell you a lot of times with the 380 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: buyout situation, if he does go to another school. Sometimes 381 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: another school picks up that buyout. 382 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, that's that's how it operates. 383 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 5: If they want a coach and they feel like a 384 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 5: coach is on the contrary, we want them. We want 385 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 5: them enough that we will pay the buy out and 386 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 5: then pay him a salary and exorbitant salary on top 387 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 5: of the buyout. It's expensive, but if you identify someone 388 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 5: that you want, and that's the cost of doing business. 389 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 3: Right, I'm hear what you're saying. 390 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 2: So, I mean, I don't think they're gonna get rid 391 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: of him. I think he's not only a nice guy, 392 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 2: I think he's a good coach. I mean, it just happens, 393 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 2: you know, you run into one of those deals. I mean, 394 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: it's a freak loss to lose to Northwestern, there's no doubt, 395 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: and they shouldn't lose to Northwestern, but it happens. It happens. 396 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: That's why they play the game. I know it sounds stupid, 397 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 2: but that's why they play the game. And really they 398 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 2: should school like Penn State should roll over Northwestern. But 399 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 2: it's one of those days that happened. 400 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 6: No. 401 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 5: I mean, look, man, I think at this point, like, 402 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 5: let's have a real conversation because it's not in the headlines, 403 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 5: like perception becomes reality, and what it's eventually going to 404 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 5: do is the more they talk about James Franklin and 405 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 5: Penn State, the more likely recruits aren't going to go 406 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 5: to Penn State because there's uncertainty regarding the leader of 407 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 5: the program, and so if they're going to make the 408 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 5: decision to move on from him, they need to make 409 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 5: it sooner rather than later, because all it's going to 410 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 5: do is impact the product. The more that you talk 411 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 5: about the coach being on shaky ground or being on 412 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 5: the hot seat, the less likely the blue chip recruits 413 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 5: are going to go there. So they need to make 414 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 5: a decision, pay the forty eight or fifty six million dollars, 415 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 5: move on or be quiet about it, because all you're 416 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 5: doing is hurting the program with all the conversation, make 417 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 5: a decision fire him or retain them. But either way, 418 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 5: it's impacting the players that are coming to the program. 419 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: And you mentioned this, we've got to go give him 420 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 2: a tip of the cap over here to Tim Skipper. 421 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 3: The coach, the interim coach or the UCLA. 422 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 2: They will owned four now they're two and one in 423 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 2: the big ten with a win yesterday over Michigan State, 424 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 2: a good win to thirty eight thirteen. 425 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 3: So yeah, we'll get into that a little bit later on. 426 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 2: I just want to know, same roster, different coach, how 427 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: does he get that done? 428 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 3: I mean, how does that happen? 429 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 2: We'll do that, But he's Bucky Brooks on Indy Firm, 430 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: And you can get us on X which is at 431 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks at Indy from an FSR or eight seven 432 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: seven ninety nine on Fox, which translates to eight seven 433 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 2: seven nine ninety six sixty three sixty nine.

But our good friend Deon Sander's won 475 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 2: a big game yesterday, Iowa State loses Colorado twenty four 476 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: to seventeen. 477 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 3: But I got a question. 478 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: I understand that Colorado was paying big bucks for Deon 479 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 2: Sanders personal bodyguard. Have you ever heard of anything like 480 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 2: this to these college coaches, the football coaches, so to speak, 481 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 2: Do they have bodyguards? 482 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 3: Is that what's going on now? 483 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: I'n't heard. 484 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 5: I know that sometimes there's security, there's highway patrolman around. 485 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: Here coaches, particularly on game day. 486 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 5: But in terms of Dion Dianna is different because Deanna 487 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 5: is a celebrity, so I think you have to kind 488 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 5: of put that in a separate category. And because you're 489 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 5: a celebrity, sometimes you have to have detail around you 490 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 5: at all hours. I don't know if most coaches are 491 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 5: living like that. If most coaches are viewed as celebrities, 492 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 5: so they may not need the full time attention when 493 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 5: it comes to being protected. 494 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 2: It's amazing because they said the University of Colorado is 495 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 2: paying for his bodyguard. The bodyguard's name is Michael Rhodes 496 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 2: and he's a former police officer. He's paid forty and 497 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 2: eighty bucks to be part of the football entertainment enterprise 498 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 2: at Colorado. 499 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 3: That's unbelievable. 500 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,959 Speaker 2: And you know what, I'm a little tired of people 501 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: jumping on Dion's back, jumping on Belichick's back, because I think, 502 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: like the media right now, they love to see how 503 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 2: profile people fail. I really believe that, you know, and 504 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: maybe at times I've done that as well. But the 505 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: point is that they just continue to hound and bang 506 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 2: on these guys even though they've had a great pass 507 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 2: in their life. 508 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 3: And I looked this up. 509 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 2: They said, media exposure for coach Deon Sanders a Colorado 510 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: get this and they want to see him leave? Are 511 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: you kidding? The media exposure is valued at around three 512 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 2: point two billion with a b three point two billion 513 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 2: dollars media exposure for Colorado. First of all, those games 514 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 2: never used to be on TV. Colorado's on almost every 515 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 2: week right now. 516 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, they didn't used to be on TV a ton, 517 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 5: and they are on a lot because Deon Sanders is 518 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 5: celebrity and what people typically do, particularly people in this 519 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 5: new media space, is you're trying to find people that 520 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 5: are popular and you try to either take a pro 521 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 5: or con opinion on them because by having that person 522 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 5: in the headlines, it generates a click, it generates a view, 523 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 5: generates a like or dislike or whatever it is. But 524 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 5: it brings about attention. And the names that are polarizing, 525 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 5: Bill Belichick, Deon Sanders or whatever, they demand a lot 526 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 5: of attention or they're commanding a lot of attention because 527 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 5: that's what people want to hear. 528 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: There is a love hate affair with Bill Belichick dating 529 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: back to his days in New England. 530 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 5: This is a chance for all of the people that 531 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 5: have always liked him to dump on them. That's why 532 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 5: we're seeing all of these hit pieces on him, etc. 533 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 5: With Deon Sanders, there's some of that too, because people 534 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 5: didn't like the flamboyance to confidence, even the cockiness that 535 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 5: he exhibited. 536 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: People don't like that. 537 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 5: So any opportunity they have to humble him or to 538 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 5: give him a slice of humble pot, they want to 539 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 5: take advantage of that opportunity. And so what we're seeing 540 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 5: all these things playing out in real time because it's popular, 541 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 5: is buzzworthy, and if it's buzzworthy, is clickworthy, which brings 542 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 5: much coveted attention to everyone that's involved in it. 543 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 2: Right And I think the media right now loves to 544 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 2: see Belichick fail, which he probably will not fail. Eventually, 545 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 2: he'll turn it around because you can't build a team overnight. 546 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: I don't care how many people you get out of 547 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 2: the portal, But the point is that the media people said, aw, 548 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 2: here's a guy he never talked to us. We'll get 549 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: him now. That's what they're doing. I mean, you know 550 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 2: I could see it. I mean, you got to be 551 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 2: a fool not to see that. But we'll get into 552 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 2: the Belichick thing later, but right now, I want to 553 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 2: talk about Joe Flacco. Forty year old Joe Flacco traded 554 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 2: to the Cincinnati Bengals from the Browns. How strange is that? 555 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 2: And what was your reaction when you heard that the 556 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: other day? 557 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 5: I really didn't have like a strong reaction because you 558 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 5: knew Joe Flacco was going to be on the hot seat, 559 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 5: that he's going to be out. He was going to 560 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 5: go somewhere because he wasn't getting time to go to 561 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 5: play the young guy, so you knew what that was. 562 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 5: The thing that is only interesting about it is the 563 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 5: Cincinnati Bengals elected to make the move. And when they 564 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 5: made the move to move off of Jake Browning for 565 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 5: a division rivals castaway, that's more telling to them. From 566 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 5: the Bengal standpoint on the field. It allowed them maybe 567 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 5: to push the ball down the field to t Higgins 568 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 5: and Jamar Chase. Jake Browning was struggling, wasn't playing well. 569 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 5: There's no way to avoid it. He wasn't playing well, 570 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 5: and so they're looking for a spark. They're still in 571 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 5: the race to two and three, Pittsburgh's at the top 572 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 5: of the AFC. 573 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: North with three and one. 574 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 5: They feel like they can get back in and so 575 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 5: they didn't give Joe Flacco an opportunity to be the 576 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 5: gun sling get to hold it down until Joe Burrow 577 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 5: gets back. 578 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 2: I would say this, I think it was a good 579 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 2: move in the sensetep if it can't be any worse 580 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 2: than what they've had the last several weeks with Jake Browning. 581 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 2: But I got to tell you, I may be on 582 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: whalf based on this. But the key in sports you 583 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 2: have to be one of two things. You have to 584 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 2: be good or you have to be interesting. Right now, 585 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 2: the Bengals aren't good, but you know what, with the 586 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: addition of Joe Flacco, they're interesting. How people are going 587 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 2: to watch and they're going to see how Joe Flacco 588 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 2: could do with a good receiving corps like you mentioned 589 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 2: T Higgins and Jamar Chase. That's the key right there. 590 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: Can he get it done? I don't know, could it 591 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: be any better than it was before? It's got to 592 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 2: be better. But I think they're going to be interesting 593 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 2: right now because you know, I just think the fan 594 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 2: base right now is getting a little tired of Jake 595 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: Browning and I feel bad for him, but he couldn't 596 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 2: get it done. 597 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 3: So I think it's going to be better right now 598 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 3: with Joe Flacco. 599 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: I mean potentially he could be better. 600 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 5: I mean Joe Fleck has to learn the offense quickly 601 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 5: and they have to figure it out. But Joe Flacco 602 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 5: also has a turnover issue. A turnover problem is to 603 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 5: make sure that he doesn't turn the ball over. But 604 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 5: if he does that, yeah, it has an opportunity to 605 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 5: get significantly better for the Bengals in the next few weeks. 606 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 2: The bad news is, and I don't think anybody really 607 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: touched on this, at least on the national level. 608 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 3: I know locally they really didn't mention it either. 609 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 2: The fact that the Browns let him go, I think 610 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 2: to me speaks volumes like what they think of him 611 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 2: in Cleveland, unless they're saying, look, he's not our future. 612 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 3: We're gonna get rid of him. Is that the deal 613 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: right now? 614 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 2: Because he was the starting quarterback, kind of had a 615 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 2: little bit of a rough spot, and they got rid 616 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 2: of him, and they got some backups right now, And 617 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 2: I'm kind of happy because Shidiah Sanders now is the 618 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 2: number one backup on that team and eventually he's gonna play. 619 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 3: He's going to play right now. 620 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 2: But to me, to let him go, to let Joe 621 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: Flacco go, to me speaks volumes like the brown said, 622 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 2: we don't need you anymore, we don't want you anymore. 623 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 5: I mean, they had a young quarterback, They have two 624 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 5: young quarterbacks that they want to eventually evaluate so they 625 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 5: can see what they have coming up against the twenty 626 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 5: twenty six quarterback class. I don't believe they have a 627 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 5: lot of value in Shoudur Sanders, just given all the 628 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 5: conversation around him and the way that they portrayed him. 629 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 5: I think this is Dylan Gabriel's show, but they believe 630 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 5: they get Dlan Gabriel is a future franchise quarterback. That's 631 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 5: why they took him in the third round ahead of Shadur. 632 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 5: So I don't think this is a we will play 633 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 5: the young guy to eventually get the Shadur. They believe 634 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 5: in Dylan Gabriel and people should treat the story as such. 635 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 5: Less conversation about Shadur, more conversation about Dylan until Dylan 636 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 5: falters in. 637 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 1: A major way. 638 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 5: But right now, this is about the Browns believing in 639 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 5: Dylan Gabriel more so than Sharduur being on on the 640 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 5: rise and having two quarterbacks so they want to move 641 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 5: on from Joe Flacco. 642 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 1: It's more about them believing in Dylan Gabriel. 643 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:06,719 Speaker 3: All right. 644 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 2: I mentioned coming into the segment that history could be 645 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 2: made today. The Green Bay Packers have only won loss 646 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: this year, and guess what it came against the quarterback 647 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: they're going to be facing today, Joe Flacco with the 648 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals. Flacco's win over Green Bay was in Week 649 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: three while he was still playing for the Cleveland Browns. Okay, 650 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 2: now he's taken the field for the Cincinnati Bengals and 651 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 2: that trade, which is well on Tuesday, I think so 652 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 2: thanks to the trade. Thanks to that trade, Flacco now 653 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 2: has a chance to make NFL history today by becoming 654 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 2: the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era to beat 655 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 2: the same opponent twice in one season while starting for 656 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 2: a different team. And that feed has only been accomplished 657 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 2: one time, and that came back in nineteen sixty two, 658 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: before the first Super Bowl was ever played. It was 659 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 2: sixty three years ago. Jack Kemp led the Charges to 660 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: a forty fourteen win over the New York Titans. Now 661 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 2: that the Jets, that was in Week two. That's pretty big. 662 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: Now Flacco also has played for every team and that 663 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 2: vision except the Pittsburgh Steelers. 664 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 3: It's crazy. He really is. 665 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: Was he been there eighteen years? I will say this, 666 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 2: and I think you'll agree. A very sturdy quarterback. I 667 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 2: don't think he's ever really been injured. But I don't 668 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 2: think he's a Hall of Fame guy. Although he was 669 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl MVP. I don't see him getting into 670 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. 671 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: No, he is not a Hall of Famer, but he. 672 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 5: Probably enjoyed one of the hottest runs that we've seen 673 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 5: someone who bettered themselves and had a great Super Bowl run. 674 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: So he deserves credit for that. But he's a gunslinger. 675 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 5: From the time that he came out of University of Delaware, 676 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 5: they were people that loved the prototypical traits, the big 677 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 5: arm in those things. And so he's had his moments 678 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 5: when he can get hot, and we saw it a 679 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 5: few years ago when he was NFL Comeback Player of 680 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 5: the Year in Cleveland. 681 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: Maybe they can catch lightning in the ball in Cincinnati, right. 682 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 2: I know everybody thinks the Bengals have problems, Well look 683 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 2: that got an excuse Joe. Joe Burrow's not playing. They 684 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 2: got another Joe right now, and they're two and three 685 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: with twelve games left. I think there's still some life 686 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: because I think that division is wide open. The team 687 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 2: that has some question walks right now, especially offensively, Philadelphia Eagles. 688 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,479 Speaker 2: They lose to the Giants on Thursday night, thirty four 689 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 2: to seventeen, and I think the game before that, the 690 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 2: game they had lost, I think something like Saquon Barkley 691 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 2: had eleven carries. Now, I remember this is like two 692 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 2: three years ago when the Eagles struggled the first half 693 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 2: of the season and they started to go to the 694 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 2: run game big time, heavily before sae Quon was there, 695 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 2: and they turned it around. Now I got a new 696 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator. Why would they stay away from the run game. 697 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 2: You got a guy who picked up up with two 698 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: thousand yards last year and then not putting the ball 699 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 2: in his belly. 700 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 3: I don't get it. 701 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 5: Well, there's a lot of fighting in fighting between the 702 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 5: star personnel, and this happens when you have success. 703 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: Pat Rowley used to call it the disease of me. 704 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 5: Everyone values their contributions more when you're part of a 705 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 5: winning team, and they believe that they should be rewarded 706 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 5: for that success, whether that's monetarily or with more opportunities. 707 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 5: That's how everyone feels. And when you have a bunch 708 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 5: of guys that have the disease of me, it starts 709 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 5: framing the team first concept because everyone is thinking about themselves. 710 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: And not the team. 711 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 5: And when you get that, you don't have a team 712 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 5: that plays well because they're functioning like a bunch of 713 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 5: independent contractors, and that's what we're seeing in Philadelphia. Until 714 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 5: everyone bues back into the team part of it, where 715 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,479 Speaker 5: we're gonna do what's best for the team as opposed 716 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 5: to the individual, they'll never get back on track and 717 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 5: they'll never win games. 718 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, apparently, I guess it was Aj Brown that posted 719 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 2: something of a Bible verse on social media and then 720 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 2: he denied it, and Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley said 721 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: they met with Brown, and you're right that internal squabbling 722 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 2: could kill you. 723 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: That's basically what it is. 724 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 2: I think that one time, once you get to the mountain, 725 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: and they were at the mountain less year winning the 726 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, I don't think that the fire is there 727 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 2: as much. I mean, you played the game, you would 728 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 2: have the answer. You know these players, you know their mindset. 729 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: But I think that you strive for a Super Bowl, 730 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 2: you win the Super Bowl, then you could put it 731 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: in put it in neutral. You don't have that drive anymore. 732 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: I don't think Kansas City did. And that's amazing New 733 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 2: England did, And maybe that's a coach's responsibility. I don't know, 734 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 2: but I think once you get to the top, it's 735 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 2: tough to stay there. 736 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 5: It's tough to stay there because every human has to 737 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 5: fight off complacency. Most people's natural inclination is if you 738 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 5: get an A on a test, the next time you cruise, 739 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 5: maybe you make a SEE and you settle for a B. 740 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 5: Nick Saban always uses this analogy to talk about the 741 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 5: human mindset and how hard it is to be an 742 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 5: elite competitor that always wants to make a's on those 743 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 5: tests because it requires you to not be swayed by 744 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 5: what happened previously, but to stay focused on the task 745 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 5: at hand. Most people aren't wired to do that, and 746 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 5: it's hard to get a team to approach a season 747 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 5: like that. Ay Man, Every game is an opportunity for 748 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 5: us to get better, no matter what we did the 749 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 5: week before. We want to be better the next week. 750 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 5: And we're playing to a standard, not to a scoreboard, 751 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 5: meaning there has to be a feel to the way 752 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 5: that we play. We feel like we're playing at a 753 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 5: championship level based on when you look at us, the 754 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 5: way we're running to the ball, executing place, etc. 755 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: About the final scoreboard. 756 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 5: But it's hard for people to do that because a 757 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 5: lot of people look at the results and they're satisfied 758 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 5: if the results are positive. They don't really care about 759 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 5: the process of how they got there. A I won, 760 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 5: Why do we care if I had a couple mistakes 761 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 5: and miscues we still won the game. But the championship 762 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 5: teams and the teams that are able to sustain over 763 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 5: the long haul, they're always chasing an ideal standard of 764 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 5: play and you have to stick to that. 765 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 766 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: I mean, Eagles right now ranked twenty ninth the NFL 767 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 2: in total offense. Sakuon Barkley twelve carries for fifty eight 768 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: yards against the Giants, and he's averaging three point four 769 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 2: yards to carry after he led the league in rushing 770 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 2: and yachts from scrimmage last year. 771 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,959 Speaker 3: Amazing. I mean, you look at that. It's kind of crazy. 772 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 2: And if it doesn't change pretty soon, there's gonna be 773 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 2: some problems, major problems over there. All right, we roll 774 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 2: along right now. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman.

You could write 799 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: it in my contract. Okay, let book answer you a 800 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: question about Drake May. 801 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 5: DREMI is doing really well, Mike Rabel, Josh mcganne is 802 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 5: doing a great job of send him up for success. 803 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 5: He's someone who was very talented, but he was inconsistent 804 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 5: during his time in North Carolina. He has some Josh 805 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,280 Speaker 5: Allen like qualities they're tapping into, not necessarily the athleticism 806 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 5: in terms of running, but just allowing him to be 807 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 5: the dude. And those dude qualities are certainly coming through 808 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 5: for him with New England. 809 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 3: Wait a minute, you got to answer pot. 810 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: B do you? 811 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 5: And he's a wonder, He's a pleasure. He's a pleasure 812 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 5: to work with every Sunday. So I can't say anything 813 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 5: bad about I love you. 814 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: I love you. 815 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 3: Okay, that sounds good. 816 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 4: All right, pray next, Okay, Bucky's growing now, Pinocchio, have 817 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 4: you ever seen a coach get physical on the sidelines 818 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 4: with the player? We obviously saw Jonathan Cannon this past 819 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 4: Sunday with a Mari de Meccardo and he was actually 820 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 4: fined one hundred thousand dollars from the team versus like 821 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 4: the league itself. So what do you think about that 822 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 4: just as a separate And then had you ever seen 823 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 4: a coach a physical with the player like on the 824 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 4: sideline like that? 825 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 5: No, and it should never happen. Like as a coach, 826 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 5: you should always pribe yourself in being able to keep 827 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 5: you cool, and he obviously wasn't able to keep his cool. 828 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 5: So that's a bad look on Jonathan Gannon's part. No 829 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,959 Speaker 5: matter the offense, it was egregious for I'm a ready 830 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 5: to drop the ball before he gets in the end zone. 831 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 5: But the coach has to be better than that. I 832 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 5: am glad that the Arizona Cardinals find him. I'm glad 833 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 5: that he had to serve some kind of punishment of 834 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 5: consequence for his actions. He cannot do that. He cannot 835 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 5: approach a player like that. There has to be a 836 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 5: level of respect between player and coach. 837 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I have an attendum to that question, if I 838 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: may breeze that. Okay, I want to know why the 839 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 2: player could or would or should Can he kind of 840 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 2: sue the. 841 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 3: Coach for assault? Just think about that? 842 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 2: Now? 843 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 3: Can he? Can he do that? Book? I mean, really, 844 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 3: he punched him, kind of punched him. 845 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, he can't sue him. He can't sue him for that. 846 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,240 Speaker 5: Like I don't think that they would have any merrit. 847 00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 5: But no, it's not a great look. Beca's not a 848 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 5: great look on the Organization's not a great look in 849 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 5: any way, shape or form. 850 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 3: All right, go ahead, Bray, I'm sorry I. 851 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 4: Was gonna say even I could have answered that question. 852 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 4: Of course, you wouldn't get sued. 853 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 2: It's crazy to anybody, But I think that's a possibility question. 854 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 6: That's for sure. 855 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 4: Wow, just kidding, right, Beckie, We're just kidding. I'm just kidding, right, Okay. 856 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 4: Bears head coach Ben Jonson stated that he sees similarities 857 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 4: between Jaden Daniels and Caleb Williams. Is he hallucinating? 858 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 5: I mean, I think there's some similarities in terms of 859 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 5: like the way they play. Both are athletic, Both can 860 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 5: make plays in the pocket outside of the pocket. Both 861 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 5: can play on time or play in a frenetic chaos. 862 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: But I would say that Jade and. 863 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 5: Daniels has been the one that has been more comfortable 864 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 5: playing on time than Caleb Williams. They're having to teach 865 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 5: Caleb Williams how to play on time and let the 866 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 5: place fully developed. But yeah, there's some similarities in terms 867 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 5: of their skill sets. 868 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 2: You know, I got this, See, I wanted to play 869 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 2: the coaching cash game how much these guys get paid. 870 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 2: And I'm gonna mention the college coach buck, and you 871 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 2: tell us if he's overpaid or not, and then after 872 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 2: you tell me that, I'll tell you how much he's making. 873 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 3: I looked that up is that? Okay, are you ready? 874 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: Here's go. 875 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 3: Luke Fickle at Wisconsin. 876 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,280 Speaker 1: Overpaid for the production and performance. 877 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 2: He's making seven point eight million. Why he left Cincinnati, 878 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. He had to go in there pretty 879 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: good and really and truly these guys make I mean, 880 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 2: do you look at the salaries they make. Do you 881 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 2: ever say to yourself, maybe you should have gotten into 882 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 2: college coaching. 883 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 3: I mean it's big money. 884 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: There's big money, but they move around too much. For me. 885 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: I didn't want that once I was done playing. I 886 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 1: didn't want to bunce around as much. 887 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 2: Okay, Lincoln Riley at Southern col too much or too little? 888 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 5: It's too much based on what the expectations are at 889 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 5: USC even though he's done a great job of recruiting now, 890 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 5: it's still too much. 891 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: The wins haven't tallied up. 892 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 3: Eleven point five mill he's making all right. 893 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 2: Our good friend coach Bill Belichick in North Carolina, I 894 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: think it's even too early to even you know, approach 895 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 2: this with him, but you know, put him on the list. 896 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 5: What do you think, Yeah, it's too much based on 897 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 5: how they're performing in all the chaos around the program. 898 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's way too much. 899 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 2: All right, you freeze at Auburn, You freeze at Auburn. 900 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's too much. I mean, did I win it 901 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 5: enough to do it? So like if you don't win enough, 902 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 5: it doesn't justify the salary. 903 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 2: So no, you know what I would say this, he's 904 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,879 Speaker 2: only I underline that he's only making six point seven mil. 905 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 3: Really, all right? How about Matt Campbell at Iowa. 906 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: State underrated under jail, he's you. 907 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 2: Know, really and truly he's a bargain. He's he's making 908 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 2: five mil and he's the winning his coach in Iowa 909 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,399 Speaker 2: State history, really and truly. I mean he's sixty nine 910 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 2: and fifty two with the cycle. It's pretty good five mil. 911 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 2: So what happens? Does he get a does they bump 912 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 2: him up or what he's gonna be gobbled up by a. 913 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 3: No the school? What happens to a guy like Matt Campbell? 914 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: I think he just stayed in build a legacy. 915 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 5: He's done a really good job with the program under 916 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 5: his direction. I don't believe in that you always have 917 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 5: to bounce and find another job. Some jobs are statue jobs, 918 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 5: like be there where you can be rewarded for being 919 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 5: an excellent coach. And having a statue fixed after you. 920 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 5: I think Matt Campbell's just say, all. 921 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 3: Right, got a couple of more coaches. I think I'm 922 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 3: gonna hold them over. We'll do that. But he's Bucky 923 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 3: Brooks and Andy Ferman, and these men really need to 924 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 3: step it up. 925 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 2: Who are they will tell you in so much more 926 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday next. 927 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 3: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 928 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 2: All right, babies, aret the loan and being premature.

I got a 943 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,920 Speaker 2: couple of little tidbits for you, Buck. Are you ready 944 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 2: about this coaching salary deal? Kurt Signetti and Indiana big 945 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 2: Win yesterday. I got to believe at eight point three mil, 946 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 2: he'll be bumped up pretty good, or maybe he'll jump 947 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 2: to a bigger school. 948 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 3: You think is that a possibility? 949 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 1: I certainly hope that. 950 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,720 Speaker 5: I don't know why people are always chasing different logos. 951 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: Whatever. He has a nice spot in Indiana, he has 952 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 1: a good thing going. Why would he want to leave? 953 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 5: You know, Like to me, if you do all the 954 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:48,479 Speaker 5: work to get the program up and going, you should 955 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 5: want to see the fruits of your labor. 956 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: Hopefully he stays there. He's done a really good job. 957 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 5: He out coached Oregon yesterday and the team is being 958 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 5: Look the team has been a playoff team and it 959 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 5: looks like they are top. Why would you want to 960 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 5: move on from that when you're just just beginning to 961 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 5: kind of put everything in place to have the program 962 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 5: the way that you want it. 963 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 3: You know, I would say this, there's a new element. 964 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: I would think when coaches jump from to school to 965 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,320 Speaker 2: school in the college level, not so much your salary, 966 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 2: but I think that you're better off or you're better 967 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,720 Speaker 2: served working in a college town where you're the only 968 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 2: team in town where the boosters really rally around. I mean, 969 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: you coach a college team in a major market, there's 970 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 2: a good chance that you're gonna be over sold or 971 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, in the shadows of professional sports, Bloomington, Indiana 972 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 2: did the only show in town. You're gonna get the 973 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 2: boosters rallying around. I think it's tough. Like for school 974 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,800 Speaker 2: like Cincinnati, where you got pro football, pro baseball, pro soccer, 975 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 2: and another college team in town in Javier University, it's tough. 976 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 2: So I think that's another factor I think coaches may 977 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 2: look into. 978 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 3: Do you agree. 979 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 5: I believe that the booster network comes from the attendance 980 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 5: of this s school and the success that their alums 981 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 5: have had. Everyone wants to be associated with the winner. 982 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 5: So the more that you win, the more the boosters 983 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 5: are willing to open up their wallets to pay for it. 984 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 5: With Indiana, they have one of the largest alumni bases. 985 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 5: They have one of the largest alumni pools when it 986 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 5: comes to money and endowments in those things, I think 987 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 5: it would be foolish for him to leave Indianda to 988 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 5: go somewhere else. 989 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 2: And we could say today quite honestly, that Indiana is 990 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 2: now a football school, not a basketball school anymore. 991 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 5: I won't go so far as to say that they 992 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 5: are a football school, but he certainly has brought some 993 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 5: welcome attention to the football program, the success that they've had. 994 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 1: In those things. It will always be known as a. 995 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 5: Basketball school because the legacy of Bobby Knight. But no 996 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 5: one says that you can't be great in two sports 997 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 5: at one school. And so if Indiana becomes great in 998 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 5: football like their trending towards becoming, and if they can 999 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 5: rebuild and repair the basketball program, I'm sure there are 1000 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 5: a lot of Hoosiers that would have preciate greatness in 1001 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 5: every level because everyone likes to have bragging rights and 1002 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 5: being able to brag about the success of your school 1003 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 5: in any form. 1004 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 2: No doubt about that. Okay, Brent Key, what a job 1005 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 2: he's done at Georgia Tech. And I can't believe he's 1006 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 2: only making he should say only he's only making a 1007 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 2: four point five million year. The team is undefeated at 1008 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 2: six and oh Georgia Tech, I gotta believe he'll be 1009 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 2: jumping around. I just think that Brent's not going to 1010 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 2: stay at Georgia Tech. 1011 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 5: Well, when he said George tickets his alma mater, He's 1012 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:27,879 Speaker 5: built it up. He's been there for a long time, 1013 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 5: up and going. 1014 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean they can pay him. He's in Atlanta. 1015 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,439 Speaker 1: He understands the lay of the land. 1016 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 5: He's got a ton of success doing it like this 1017 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 5: team is legit, and he has his personality all on it. 1018 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 5: And also, when you're britt Key and you're talking about 1019 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 5: a program that had a long run of success on 1020 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 5: the Paul Johnson, whether they like the offense that he 1021 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 5: ran or not, Bricky understands, man, you can be there 1022 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 5: for a long time. You fully can implement your program 1023 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 5: and see it all the way through. I don't think 1024 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 5: he'd be in a hurry to move on from that. 1025 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 2: Okay, who's the coach of the now in the NFL. 1026 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 2: I think it's a guy in Jacksonville. 1027 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 5: I mean he's one of them. I mean, I think 1028 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 5: there are a bunch of coaches that are doing good job. 1029 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 5: Liam certainly deserves to be in that conversation. He consistently 1030 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,959 Speaker 5: he has a scene playing up. I mean, they've knocked 1031 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 5: off some really good teams the last couple of weeks. 1032 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 5: San Francisco and Kansas City. But there's more work to do. 1033 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 5: But yeah, he's been terrific. He certainly should be in 1034 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 5: the conversation in terms of what he's doing, how he's 1035 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 5: doing it, whatever. But I'm saying Dan Campbell should be there. 1036 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 5: Dan Campbell should do it because he lost both coordinators, 1037 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 5: he lost some players, he lost a ton of assistants, 1038 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 5: and yet the Detroit Lions are flexing their muscles as 1039 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 5: the best team in football. He deserves a lot of credit. 1040 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 5: I would lean towards him being the coach a year 1041 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:45,439 Speaker 5: over anybody else. 1042 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially losing two coordinators. I mean, everybody thought he'd 1043 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 2: be down the dumb They lost the first game of 1044 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 2: the years. Oh here we go, it's over. He got 1045 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 2: him back. He ratheried them before they could even think 1046 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 2: of going the other direction. He got him right back 1047 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 2: back and better than it might be, averaging like thirty 1048 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 2: points a game. 1049 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 1050 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: Okay, I thought about the age factor. You could be 1051 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 2: on a bad team, injuries, all factors. While some players 1052 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 2: who we expect to have better seasons are falling short 1053 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: and who are they? Well, you wrote about that and 1054 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 2: foxsports dot Com. I wanted to touch on that for 1055 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,879 Speaker 2: a little bit. And fantasy football guys, guys that play 1056 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 2: fantasy football and women, they're probably getting stung by this, 1057 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 2: you know. And there are guys that are surprising us, 1058 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 2: I mean the Jackson Darts of the world, they're surprising us. 1059 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 3: But those that are falling. 1060 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,959 Speaker 2: Short that you wrote about foxsports dot Com, there's gotta 1061 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 2: be a reason, okay, And it's very difficult. And you 1062 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 2: mentioned this, I think just last week when you wrote 1063 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 2: about it. Dereck Henry hard to say that really he's struggling. 1064 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: I mean, look, he had forty nine carriages for two 1065 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 2: eighty four and three touchdowns, and he was tied for 1066 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 2: the NFL lead back at that point in time two 1067 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 2: weeks ago. But he's the king and now all of 1068 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 2: a sudden he's having a rough time getting back on track. 1069 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 2: Not really his fault, I just think is the players 1070 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 2: around him. 1071 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 3: Is that true? 1072 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: Nah, he put the ball on the ground. 1073 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 5: I mean, he had a great season opener, but then 1074 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 5: he fombled the ball. So he hasn't been the same. Yeah, 1075 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 5: he hasn't been the same since he put it on 1076 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 5: the ground. Maybe it's a mind thing or whatever. But 1077 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 5: if he doesn't play with the same force and vigor. 1078 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 5: It changes the dynamics of their offense. And Lamar Jackson 1079 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 5: has been out that also makes it hard. It's a 1080 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 5: lot easier when there's a dynamic threat at quarterback to 1081 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 5: be able to get off at running back. But no, 1082 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 5: it hasn't looked great. They got to find a way 1083 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 5: to fix it. They need him to play at a 1084 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 5: high level to be able to win consistently. 1085 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I tell I'm surprised if this one you 1086 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 2: wrote about him as well. I mean, when Pete Carroll 1087 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 2: took over in Las Vegas, I thought it'd be a 1088 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:37,919 Speaker 2: good marriage. Bring a Geno Smith back. This guy, Geno 1089 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,840 Speaker 2: Smith has become a turnover machine. Hey, I don't know 1090 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 2: what happened to him. I mean, he maybe just lost it, 1091 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 2: lack of confidence. I don't know what it is. But 1092 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,479 Speaker 2: he got to turn it around quickly because that team 1093 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 2: isn't good anymore. 1094 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 5: Now the team isn't good and it's as far because 1095 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 5: he's turning the ball over too much. 1096 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,240 Speaker 1: That's on him. He's trying to do too much. 1097 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,879 Speaker 5: He's trying to be a hero as opposed to play 1098 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 5: within the confines of the offense and the players go 1099 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 5: through this where ego gets involved. His ego get involved, 1100 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:05,879 Speaker 5: and that's why he's turning it over. 1101 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 1: He has nine interceptions nine and five. 1102 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,959 Speaker 5: Games, they have ten. They lead the league in giveaways. 1103 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 5: That's why the Raiders aren't winning. You turn the ball over, 1104 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 5: you losing this league. That's just what it is. 1105 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 2: What about saus Gardon, I mean, not only is he 1106 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 2: having some problems with penalties, but he's basically pointing his 1107 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:29,280 Speaker 2: finger at the officials saying that because his team isn't winning, 1108 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 2: the Jets, you know, they're getting penalized more so than 1109 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 2: other teams. I mean, that's a weak excuse, I think. 1110 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 2: I mean, really, he's just not playing well. 1111 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: I mean two things can be true at once. 1112 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 5: He's not playing well, but they certainly don't get the 1113 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 5: benefit of the doubt when it comes to you know, 1114 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 5: the tiki tag calls that some teams get away with 1115 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 5: and a lot of times. 1116 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: To the victor goes to spoils. 1117 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 5: The better you are, the more breaks you get because 1118 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,720 Speaker 5: people expect to see you win, and there's a natural 1119 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 5: bias that comes in there for the Jets. 1120 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: They're losers, they've been losers, and you don't get that. 1121 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 5: You have to overcome that stigma and overcome some of 1122 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 5: the things that come along with that. And they can 1123 00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 5: do it, but they they have to win before it changes. 1124 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 5: Right now, the perception is terrible on. 1125 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 3: It, no doubt about that. Here a guy. You are 1126 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 3: close to. 1127 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 2: This guy, Brian Thomas wide receive it for you at 1128 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars. Maybe having this sophomore slump. I don't know 1129 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,879 Speaker 2: what it is, but he's gonna be the number one guy. 1130 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 2: He's the number one option you would think in Jacksonville 1131 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 2: right now through four games, just twelve catches. 1132 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 3: But maybe it's the new head coach. Maybe the system. 1133 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1134 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: I don't know what the system basically is or was. 1135 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell just by looking. Maybe you can. You're there, 1136 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 2: you're on there, you're there every week and you see practices. 1137 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 3: But what happened to Brian Thomas. 1138 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 5: He started out at the beginning of the season, dropping 1139 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:49,800 Speaker 5: past is just having a tough time holding on to 1140 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 5: the ball. He has come out of that of late. 1141 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 5: He's performed better, making some big plays. We saw some 1142 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 5: big plays on Monday night against Kansas City Chiefs. It's 1143 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 5: just u you know, sometimes the expectations that you put 1144 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 5: on yourself can bog you down in your mind, meaning 1145 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 5: you have a great first season and you expect to 1146 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 5: pick up where you left off and it just doesn't 1147 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 5: happen like that. He's getting better, it's just tough. It's 1148 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:14,800 Speaker 5: tough being the number one. There are a lot of 1149 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 5: expectations that come with being the number one receiver, and 1150 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:19,640 Speaker 5: he just has to kind of. 1151 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:20,439 Speaker 1: Step up to the plate. 1152 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:23,440 Speaker 2: You're speaking of number one receiver. This guy as the 1153 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 2: first round pick chrys Olave with the Saints. He's got 1154 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 2: an excuse. That team is just bad. It's a bad 1155 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 2: team and a bad quarterback. So you know, I kind 1156 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,479 Speaker 2: of give him. I'll pass, I'll give him a past 1157 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 2: chrys Olave. 1158 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 5: I mean yeah, I mean he's overcoming like concussion issues. 1159 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: The team hasn't been great. 1160 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 5: They're trying to figure it out, trying to figure out 1161 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 5: who they are and what they're about. It's one of 1162 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 5: those things where they just have to continue to find themselves. 1163 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 5: And having him win last week against the Giants, being 1164 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 5: able to see Spencer Radlar get it together. But a 1165 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 5: lot of is a talented player. He's too good to 1166 00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 5: struggle the way that he. 1167 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 3: Stroke no doubt about that. 1168 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of falling shot, and these guys are falling 1169 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 2: short and hopefully, you know, for them, they would turn 1170 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 2: it around. But let's talk about some other people that 1171 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 2: are falling short. The NFL and the goal line. It's 1172 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 2: eight inches stick eight inches has white paint stretched across 1173 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 2: a fifty three and a third yard width of the 1174 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 2: playing field, separates the green grass from the playing field. 1175 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 2: So it's really hard to miss it really is. But 1176 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 2: a couple of guys are doing that. Okay, they're dropping 1177 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 2: the ball before they get to the end zone. For 1178 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 2: two consecutive weeks of player released the ball right before 1179 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 2: the goal line. 1180 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,799 Speaker 3: All right, what is happening? Why is this? Why are 1181 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:36,720 Speaker 3: they falling short? 1182 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:41,399 Speaker 2: I talk about premature okay, the pretre premature touchdown celebrations. 1183 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,280 Speaker 2: Is this a problem in the league? Is in an accident? 1184 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 2: These guys are going to continue to do it. It's 1185 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,839 Speaker 2: killing the league. I mean, really, Arizona lost that game 1186 00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 2: last week because of that. Tennessee got to win out 1187 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 2: of that deal. They really did. I mean, and as 1188 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,439 Speaker 2: a fan, you don't want to see that. I don't 1189 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 2: care about celebrations. I mean, what do they say in 1190 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 2: Jacksonville does a coach even mention that they talk about it. 1191 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't get it. When Mitchell had that 1192 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 2: seventy five you had touchdown catch and he dropped it. 1193 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 2: He just let the ball go down. I mean, Indianapolis 1194 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 2: should be undefeated now. I mean, really, it's a terrible 1195 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 2: thing for teams to do that. And I could just 1196 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:23,360 Speaker 2: imagine what the guy who drops the ball feels like 1197 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,479 Speaker 2: in that locker room after the game. 1198 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 5: The guys are so there's so many things this has happened. 1199 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,279 Speaker 5: It's been happening for a long time, going all the 1200 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 5: way back to DeShawn Jackson dropping the ball in two 1201 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 5: thousand and eight against the Cowboys before. 1202 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 1: Going into the end zone. 1203 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 5: They eventually scored, but it was one of the first 1204 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 5: times we've seen International Football League player drop the ball 1205 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 5: before they got into the zone. He did the same 1206 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 5: thing in the US Army game back in two thousand 1207 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 5: and five when he was a high school senior. He 1208 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 5: did a flip landy short of the goal line and 1209 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 5: fumbled the ball going in. Sometimes people just get so 1210 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 5: caught up in wanting to show that they sacrifice the. 1211 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: Fundamentals going in, and I understand it. 1212 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,360 Speaker 5: I'm a kid of the era when Billy White Shoes 1213 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 5: Johnson would do the funky Chicken after scoring touchdowns for 1214 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 5: the Atlanta Falcons, and I would seeing. 1215 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:14,799 Speaker 1: It and want to do that. 1216 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 5: And sometimes people get so caught up in the cool factor, 1217 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 5: and the cool factor exists in seven on seven culture 1218 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 5: where these kids are really more known for their celebrations 1219 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,439 Speaker 5: than the plays, and so you spend all your time 1220 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 5: thinking about how cool can I be when I get 1221 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 5: into the end zone, as opposed to really following the fundamentals. 1222 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 5: And I've heard NFL coaches talk about letters and logos 1223 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 5: when you get into the end zone. Don't put the 1224 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 5: ball down until you see the letters in logos in 1225 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 5: the paint. When you do that, they know you've crossed 1226 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 5: the goal line, et cetera. But guys have to do that, 1227 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:51,320 Speaker 5: they're just losing sight of the bigger goal, the bigger 1228 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 5: goals to score for your team and win. 1229 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 2: Okay, you were in the era of Billy White Shoes 1230 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 2: Johnson doing that doing that, and it was good, it 1231 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 2: was funny, and it was entertaining, no doubt about that. 1232 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 2: I'm in the air as a kid growing up when 1233 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 2: Homer Jones of the New York Football Giants number forty five. 1234 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,720 Speaker 2: I remember him, like goes yesterday. He invented the spike. 1235 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 2: He would get a touchdown pass going to the end 1236 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,400 Speaker 2: zone and just slammed that ball on the ground. It 1237 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 2: was Homer Jones who started doing that at first, all right, 1238 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 2: but he was in the end zone. These guys were 1239 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 2: in the end zone when they did that, and the 1240 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 2: other fellas are dropping the ball prior to their spinning 1241 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,319 Speaker 2: the ball around. They're trying to get one hand to 1242 00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 2: the other. It doesn't work. The NFL players, I believe, 1243 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 2: should not have to be told to hold onto the 1244 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,399 Speaker 2: football until they're deep into the end zone. All right, 1245 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 2: what do coaches say that they give them any pet talk? 1246 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 2: I mean, the acter tell him this. Maybe coaches should 1247 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 2: demand that the players weren't out of the back of 1248 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,240 Speaker 2: the end zone before they let go of the football. 1249 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:48,400 Speaker 2: Or maybe teams maybe should start finding these players instead 1250 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 2: of like in Arizona, the coach punching him find the 1251 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 2: guy and the coach ended up getting fined for one 1252 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 2: hundred grand. Right, it's terrible. I mean, it's unbelievable a release. Honestly, 1253 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 2: it's just there's too much of a punishment. I don't know. 1254 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:03,919 Speaker 2: I don't know what they could do, but I think 1255 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,759 Speaker 2: it's disgusting to lose a game like that. 1256 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you don't like to lose due to 1257 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 5: self inflicted errors. 1258 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: And if you're going to play this game, you want 1259 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,239 Speaker 1: to play it the right way. And you have to 1260 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 1: talk to them. 1261 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 5: No matter who they are, they're pros, you still got 1262 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 5: to coach them like their high school players. You have 1263 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,320 Speaker 5: to talk to them about the things that are important 1264 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 5: to being able to win games. And one of the 1265 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:26,799 Speaker 5: things that's important to being able to win games is 1266 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 5: not beat on now sales with the stupid plays. 1267 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 1: And that's a stupid play. If you're about to score 1268 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 1: a touchdown and you drop the ball before the end zone. 1269 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:36,240 Speaker 5: That's stupid. That's just what it is. It's a dumb play. 1270 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,319 Speaker 5: Put the ball in the paint. Make sure you have 1271 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 5: to every play you hand the ball to the referee. 1272 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 5: You can hand the ball to the referee and go 1273 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 5: and do whatever celebration you want to do, but don't 1274 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,359 Speaker 5: sacrifice the execution for the show voting. And people are 1275 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 5: sacrificing that to show vote. 1276 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 2: You know, how much do coaches talk about how one 1277 00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 2: should have their should act. 1278 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,920 Speaker 3: I mean, certainly coaches go over plays. 1279 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 2: I watch all those shows, the HBO deal, you know, 1280 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,280 Speaker 2: prior to the season, and they show whether the coaches 1281 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 2: you know, in. 1282 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 3: Meetings and whatever it may be. 1283 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:15,280 Speaker 2: But I don't see coaches really talking how players should 1284 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:19,279 Speaker 2: behave really, I mean, how you decorum, you know, off 1285 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,279 Speaker 2: the field, you know, when you meet people, when you 1286 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,439 Speaker 2: talk to the press. You know, it's all about x's 1287 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 2: and o's and how you do plays. But the coaches 1288 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 2: actually get a hold of a player and say you 1289 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,760 Speaker 2: shouldn't do this, you should act like this, you shouldn't 1290 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 2: do it. 1291 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 3: I mean, really do they do that? 1292 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 2: I mean back in the day, I remember the Bengals 1293 00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,640 Speaker 2: used to have to wear shirts and ties on away trips. 1294 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 3: I don't think that. I don't think any team does 1295 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 3: that now. 1296 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 5: No, I mean, but I think you have to tell them, 1297 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,600 Speaker 5: like there's certain standards and expectations for what you want 1298 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 5: to see, and you'll see this. 1299 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 1: You'll see people in two minute. 1300 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,240 Speaker 5: Drills make sure they hand the ball to the ref 1301 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 5: or do whatever those things are. 1302 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 1: The coach has to figure out what he values most 1303 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:57,959 Speaker 1: and what he wants his. 1304 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 5: Team to be about, and what he wants him to 1305 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,439 Speaker 5: look like. And if you want certain things from your team, 1306 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 5: you have to demand it and the way that you 1307 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,240 Speaker 5: get what you demand. And so if you want them 1308 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 5: to give the ball to the rift and you demand it, 1309 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 5: regardless whether they're pros and A do you think but 1310 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 5: I do not want to see us penalized for not 1311 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 5: putting the ball in the paint. 1312 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,479 Speaker 1: Give the ball to the rift and go do whatever 1313 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: celebration that you want to do. 1314 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 2: Okay, we've always been told, I mean media people say 1315 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 2: this all the time. The team takes to put to 1316 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,560 Speaker 2: you personality of the head coach. Okay, so if a 1317 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 2: team is sloppy with penalties, if a team has players 1318 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:33,919 Speaker 2: as show voting, does that mean see you never saw 1319 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,720 Speaker 2: that in New England with Belichick coach. That would never happen. Really, 1320 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:41,280 Speaker 2: so they do take after the coach. So coaches don't care. 1321 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 2: Is that what it is? 1322 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 3: I mean? 1323 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 2: Today we have the Cardinals playing the Colts. Is that 1324 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 2: fate that over the last two weeks, those are the 1325 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 2: two teams that had guys show voting and went into 1326 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 2: the end zone and dropped the ball. The Cardinals playing 1327 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: at the Colts today, it's amazing and believe me, they'll 1328 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 2: be showing those three plays during that game on TV. 1329 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 1: That I promise you, yeah, I won't say that they 1330 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 1: don't care. 1331 00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 5: I think sometimes guys have brain forests and they mess up. 1332 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 1: But you get what you emphasize. 1333 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 5: And so if you emphasize a certain level of execution 1334 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 5: and play or whatever, you will get it because you 1335 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 5: have to hold them accountable to what your expectations are 1336 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 5: as the head coach, as the leader of the program. 1337 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: So you can get it. 1338 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 5: You can get guys to acquiesce to to what you 1339 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 5: want them to do, but you have to be consistent 1340 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 5: and you have to be consistent every day in demanding 1341 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 5: that stuff. And if you do that, eventually they're changed 1342 00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 5: or you find somebody else they can get it done. 1343 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 3: Right. 1344 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 2: Let's talk a little bit about this Cardinals game at 1345 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:37,440 Speaker 2: the Colts senate coach that I say the coach should 1346 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 2: probably be five and zero. Carlinos have lost three straight. 1347 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 2: They're two and three right now in Arizona. They lost 1348 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 2: three fumbles last week to the Titans. I mean, you 1349 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 2: just stop, you know the key stating football really and 1350 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 2: truly when you want to get right down. 1351 00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 3: To it, it's turning the ball over. 1352 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,960 Speaker 2: The team that doesn't turn the ball over the most 1353 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 2: usually wins the ball game. Stop looking at stats, what 1354 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 2: a quarterback throws for and all these deals. Right now, 1355 00:58:58,280 --> 00:59:00,960 Speaker 2: it's all about turnovers, isn't it. It's turnover battle that 1356 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 2: wins the game. 1357 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 5: Yes, and it always will be. It'll never change. It 1358 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 5: is always about the turnovers. You turn the ball over, 1359 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 5: you lose games in this league, and you have to 1360 00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 5: kind of find a way to minimize that. If you 1361 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:17,240 Speaker 5: minimize the turnovers, it gives you a shot to be 1362 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,960 Speaker 5: able to get it done. But the first thing that 1363 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 5: you have to do is minimize the turnovers. Make sure 1364 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 5: that you give yourself a chance by taking care of 1365 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 5: the ball that every turn. 1366 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 2: No doubt about that.

The way tire buying 1399 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 2: should be. Okay, now, let's get into the business at hand, 1400 01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 2: because in winning right now, we can mention the Colts, 1401 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 2: we can mention the Broncos, we can mention the Jags, 1402 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 2: we can mention the. 1403 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay Bucks. But one team is at the top 1404 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 3: of the food chain. 1405 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 1: Here. 1406 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 2: You want to take a guest, let's go around. You 1407 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 2: want to take a guest, Brie, our producer. You want 1408 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,120 Speaker 2: to think, I guess which team we're talking about right 1409 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 2: now that's winning. 1410 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 4: I was gonna say the New Orleans Saints, but I'm 1411 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 4: starting to think that's correct. 1412 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, don't embarrass yourself. I'm rude, Bucky, you'll have the answer. 1413 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 3: I know, Bucky, You'll know. 1414 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: No, I have no idea. 1415 01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:43,280 Speaker 2: The New England Patriots. The New England Patriots are three 1416 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 2: and two. They're playing at New Orleans today though, Brie 1417 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 2: and the Patriots have a winning record after five games 1418 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:53,080 Speaker 2: for the first time since they were five and oho 1419 01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 2: and twenty nineteen. How do you like that? And Sunday night. 1420 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 2: They beat Buffalo in Buffalo, So Bucky Brooks is the 1421 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 2: perfect guy to get into this in dissect. 1422 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:01,360 Speaker 3: Drake May. 1423 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 2: We had a caller early on, but that guy didn't 1424 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 2: know what he was talking about because he insulted me. 1425 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,439 Speaker 3: But let's look at their quarterback. Drake May, a North 1426 01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 3: Carolina guy. 1427 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,440 Speaker 2: His five game output on offense is the Patriots best 1428 01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:15,320 Speaker 2: since twenty seventeen. What has Mike Vrabel done to turn 1429 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,320 Speaker 2: this team around with the same personnel as a year ago. 1430 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 5: Well one, it's not exactly the same. They brought in 1431 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 5: a ton of free agents. There were old, grizzled guys, 1432 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 5: a bunch of his guys that are tough seeing quarterback, physical, 1433 01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:31,160 Speaker 5: those things, and so defensively they play a tough brand 1434 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 5: of ball. The physicality, the toughness, understanding who they are. Offensively, 1435 01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:40,120 Speaker 5: Stefan Diggs matching up with Drake May has been good 1436 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 5: because it gives him a quality receiver to throw to, 1437 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 5: someone who's dependable and reliable, trustworthy. That's critical for a 1438 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 5: young quarterback to know that when I throw the ball 1439 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 5: to the spot, this player's going to show up and 1440 01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:53,320 Speaker 5: be there. That has helped they've attempted to run the football, 1441 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 5: even though Ramondre Stevenson has had some fumble issues. They've 1442 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:00,080 Speaker 5: tried to really manage the game, control the game at 1443 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 5: least a quarterback when it's been favorable. And look, he's 1444 01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:06,720 Speaker 5: flourished in this thing. And when you look at the Patriots, 1445 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 5: it's important to not measure them on their statistical output, 1446 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 5: but more so on how they control the game. They 1447 01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 5: make people play in a style that they don't like playing, 1448 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 5: and they have a lot of success because they're great 1449 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 5: in situational football. 1450 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:23,640 Speaker 1: They do a. 1451 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:26,959 Speaker 5: Terrific job of dominating the line of scrimmage, and their 1452 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 5: physicality and toughness can wear you down if you're not 1453 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 5: prepared for it. 1454 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 2: You know, it's funny you got the Patriots playing at 1455 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:36,080 Speaker 2: New Orleans today. And also I was amazed really in 1456 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 2: fact that they had some takeaways and the takeaways last 1457 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 2: week we talked about takeaways as the key to the game. 1458 01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 2: You know, which team has to at least them out 1459 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 2: of the takeaways. That's what won the game for New 1460 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 2: Orleans last week. They scored points or if their takeaways. 1461 01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,120 Speaker 2: So we can see what happens right now. It won't 1462 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 2: be an easy game. For the Patriots. I like the Patriots. 1463 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 2: I'd like to see them win. But also you talk 1464 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,400 Speaker 2: about mistakes and takeaways. They're running backs. They both fumbled 1465 01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 2: again last week against the Bills, but obviously New England 1466 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 2: won the game. But Stevenson and Gibson fumble the football. 1467 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 2: You got to stop fumbling the football, keep the football 1468 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 2: in There are there any drills in football that could 1469 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 2: keep a player from not fumbling, you know, whey they 1470 01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:14,960 Speaker 2: hold the ball. I mean, I'm seeing guys getting the 1471 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 2: ball punched out when they started running the ball right now. 1472 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 2: Is there a drill that could keep them from not fumbling? 1473 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 1: I mean, you just have to always be aware of it. 1474 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 5: I mean, there's no one that can guarantee that you're 1475 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 5: never going to fumble, but you have to be conscious 1476 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,280 Speaker 5: of taking care of the football in traffic, two hands, 1477 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:34,800 Speaker 5: they're holding it high and tight whenever in the open field, 1478 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 5: handing the ball to the ref at the end of 1479 01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:38,560 Speaker 5: every play, to make sure that you don't get loosey 1480 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 5: goosey with it at the end of runs. All those things. 1481 01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 5: There has to be a heightened sense of aware and 1482 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 5: that's when it comes to turnovers. 1483 01:04:44,640 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 1: You can't turn the ball over. 1484 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the key. I know a lot of people do, 1485 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 2: I mean stupid turnovers as well. You know, you talk 1486 01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 2: about turning it around. New England looks like they're turning 1487 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,560 Speaker 2: it around with Rabel and he's tough. I mean, he's 1488 01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:57,280 Speaker 2: a tough guy. And talk about team taking the image 1489 01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,520 Speaker 2: of their coach, they're certainly doing that in New England. 1490 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:01,920 Speaker 2: But let's talk about your alma matter for a second. 1491 01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 2: And their coach, Bill Belichick, was when the University of 1492 01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 2: North Carolina hired the guy Bill Belichick the coach their 1493 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 2: football team, and it wasn't in bad shape. But you know, 1494 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 2: they said they wanted a younger guy, but they ended 1495 01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 2: up getting a coach older than their former coach. But 1496 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 2: what happened when they hired him. They sold out the tickets, 1497 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 2: the donations were coming in. They had excitement all over, 1498 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 2: not only Chap a little bit, I guess the entire 1499 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 2: state of North Carolina of getting the greatest coach and 1500 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,120 Speaker 2: I say it in capital letters, the greatest coach of 1501 01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:32,720 Speaker 2: all time. Bill Belichick kind of turned that program around 1502 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 2: and after ten months, right now they want him gone. 1503 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 2: The enthusiasm is gone. North Carolina's blowout laws to a 1504 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 2: team of like Clemson. 1505 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 3: Which is mediocre. The wreck was two and three. 1506 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 2: I watched that game on TV and by halftime, everybody 1507 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:50,560 Speaker 2: was gone. Look, they say Rome wasn't built in the day. 1508 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 2: I didn't think that Bill Belichick would have a losing 1509 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 2: record this year, but I didn't think they'd win double 1510 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:56,439 Speaker 2: digit ball games. 1511 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 3: It takes time, you know. 1512 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 2: Sure you're going through the portlar get play you talked 1513 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 2: about early on, and I listened to you, and I 1514 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 2: listened to you with two years. That's why God gave 1515 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 2: me two years and one mouth two years. I listen 1516 01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 2: to you. You know, it takes time to mesh these 1517 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 2: players coming together out of the portal. I still think 1518 01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 2: he's going to turn it around, but I worry will 1519 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 2: they give him the time to turn them around? Turn 1520 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 2: it around at North Carolina, come on the two and 1521 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 2: three and this play and the problems off the field, 1522 01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 2: the armand Hawkins was suspended assistant coach. 1523 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 3: For rules violation. 1524 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 2: It's not a good look. It really isn't. But I 1525 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 2: just hope they keep him there. I hope he wants 1526 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 2: to stay there. 1527 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 5: Look, I mean, the other thing that North Carolina can 1528 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,000 Speaker 5: focus on is what the product looks like on the field, 1529 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 5: Bill Belichick has to go to work, has to make 1530 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,360 Speaker 5: the team better. Despite the disappointment that everyone has around 1531 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,880 Speaker 5: the program, sitting here at two and three, two and four, 1532 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:52,840 Speaker 5: wherever they are, they just have to focus on what 1533 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 5: they can control, and that's the next time they have 1534 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,640 Speaker 5: a chance to play. They need to play better than 1535 01:06:56,640 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 5: they played previously. They played Kale on the seventeenth. Expect 1536 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,919 Speaker 5: them to take the bye week that they've had last 1537 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 5: week and then the game week to get ready to play. 1538 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:09,400 Speaker 5: No matter what people say, TCU, Clemson, the teams that 1539 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 5: they were blown out by, I mean even UCF, Clemson 1540 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 5: and TCU were better than North Carolina on paper. 1541 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:16,680 Speaker 1: They didn't go in as favors. They shouldn't have gone 1542 01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 1: in as favors. 1543 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 5: Vegas can say whatever, like those teams were better, they 1544 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 5: were well constructed or whatever. UCF game is probably the 1545 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 5: one that's the most disappointing, but you lost it. So 1546 01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 5: you got to acknowledge whatever you did wrong in those 1547 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:29,000 Speaker 5: losses and you have to fix it and make it better. 1548 01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 5: And hopefully they did that during the bye week. But 1549 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 5: this was not going to be a double digit win team. 1550 01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 5: Whoever believed that was looking at this team in Carolina 1551 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 5: blue glasses and not really being real with what it is. 1552 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,680 Speaker 5: And they have to ignore the noise and keep playing 1553 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:46,520 Speaker 5: because the noise is going to be loud because there 1554 01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,880 Speaker 5: are a lot of casuals that are checking in, there 1555 01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 5: are a lot of haters that are checking in, and 1556 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 5: they just have to focus on what they control, was 1557 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 5: the product. 1558 01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:57,280 Speaker 2: Okay, the question here and this is the crazy established. 1559 01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: Now you know everybody's looking at this program through in 1560 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 2: my scope. It's not just the coach. It's not just 1561 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 2: the one lost record. It's everything from top to bottom 1562 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 2: with his girlfriend and all that stuff. Look it should 1563 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 2: be just what's happening on the field. And look, it'll 1564 01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:11,160 Speaker 2: turn around. I know it's going to turn around, because 1565 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 2: he's too good of a coach not to have a turnaround. 1566 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,040 Speaker 3: But it takes time. But they suspended their quarterbacks coach. 1567 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 2: Armand Hawkins for recruiting violations, and according to the Athletic 1568 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,559 Speaker 2: the other day, they said it's related to extra benefits 1569 01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:24,280 Speaker 2: afforded to recruits. How in the hell do you give 1570 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 2: recruits extra benefits where they're getting paid nil money anyway? 1571 01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 2: And well, how stupid can you be to be doing that. 1572 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:35,599 Speaker 5: Well, they said he provided sideline passes and access, so 1573 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 5: that's a violation of the rules. 1574 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:39,719 Speaker 1: Then you have to punish because those are the rules. 1575 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:40,680 Speaker 1: That's what it is. 1576 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 5: And if he did it, then they're gonna punish him. 1577 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 5: They're removing them from the field and eventually from the staff, 1578 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 5: and they'll make sure they don't make those mistakes again. 1579 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 1: That's part of it. 1580 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 5: Like there's rules violations that are committed and everyone that 1581 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:57,919 Speaker 5: is caught they have to serve their time or their punishment, 1582 01:08:58,000 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 5: whatever it is. And so Carolina will have to face 1583 01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 5: up for self reporting what took place and on up 1584 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 5: to it. The other things are the other things, like 1585 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 5: it is salacious to talk about a seventy three year 1586 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 5: old man with a mid twenty something girlfriend. It is 1587 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 5: always going to be salacious in that aspect. I mean, 1588 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:22,519 Speaker 5: that's just what it is. Is something that society deems 1589 01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 5: to be incorrect, and it's weird and cringey and all 1590 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 5: that other stuff. And so it plays out in the university. 1591 01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 5: It's wrapped up in that part of the soap opera. 1592 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 5: They have to figure it out. But they knew he 1593 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,559 Speaker 5: was dating her when they hired him. And so they 1594 01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 5: had to be prepared for the storm of criticism and outcries. 1595 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 1: And stuff that came with it. 1596 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 5: The main thing is this, the only thing that anyone 1597 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,559 Speaker 5: really cares about is whether they're winning or losing. So 1598 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,160 Speaker 5: Bill Belichick and the staff need to focus their efforts 1599 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:52,679 Speaker 5: on finding a way to win games. 1600 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 1: The more you win. 1601 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:56,799 Speaker 5: The less do they have an opportunity to take shots 1602 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:57,479 Speaker 5: at the program. 1603 01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:58,960 Speaker 1: So focus on winning games. 1604 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 3: Here's my question to you. 1605 01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 2: If you play for North Carolina, you're close to the program, 1606 01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 2: you know what's going on. 1607 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 3: You got your head to the ground on this, all right. 1608 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:12,280 Speaker 2: Do you think that players in the locker room really 1609 01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 2: care that he's dating a twenty four year old girl 1610 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 2: or does it hurt him? 1611 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:16,760 Speaker 3: Does it affect him? 1612 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,920 Speaker 2: And moreover, if he's going out to recruit and it 1613 01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:23,720 Speaker 2: goes into a parent's home in their living room, the 1614 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 2: parents are going to bring that up to him and say, 1615 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 2: I don't want my son playing for you. If you're 1616 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 2: dating a woman that young, Could that hurt him or 1617 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:32,599 Speaker 2: will it hurt him in that regard? 1618 01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:34,840 Speaker 5: I don't think he will hurt him, But there's gonna 1619 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 5: be some isolated incidents where that stuff comes up and 1620 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:38,840 Speaker 5: you know what, if they don't want to be coach 1621 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:40,439 Speaker 5: from me, then you go on to the next one. 1622 01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:42,960 Speaker 5: Every program is not a fit for every player, and 1623 01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:45,639 Speaker 5: you have to be resolute and knowing who you are 1624 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 5: and what you're about, and you have to be committed 1625 01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,760 Speaker 5: to sticking to the brand. And whatever the brand is 1626 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:52,920 Speaker 5: that Carolina is promoting. They have to make sure that 1627 01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:55,440 Speaker 5: recruits and players that they bring it to the program 1628 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 5: fit that. 1629 01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:58,599 Speaker 1: And just because it starts off slow, it doesn't matter. 1630 01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:01,839 Speaker 5: It depends on how this team finished first year, new culture, 1631 01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 5: new environment, new process. You want to make sure that 1632 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:06,799 Speaker 5: you're playing your best ball down the stretch as everyone 1633 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,480 Speaker 5: acclimates to the new way of doing thing and eventually 1634 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 5: succeeds within the new way of doing things. That's the 1635 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:13,960 Speaker 5: only thing that you can do when you're a coach 1636 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:15,080 Speaker 5: taking over a new program. 1637 01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 3: They've had three losses by twenty five points and more. 1638 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 2: I was still this. I'll go to my grave by 1639 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:22,439 Speaker 2: saying this. He's the greatest NFL coach of all time. 1640 01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 2: I don't know how this happens. I guess just the 1641 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 2: melting pot of players coming in from all areas and 1642 01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:30,280 Speaker 2: trying to get it together to learn a new system 1643 01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:31,280 Speaker 2: in one shot. 1644 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:35,240 Speaker 3: And I guess you expect. 1645 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:37,479 Speaker 5: You don't know how what happens, how you lose three games, 1646 01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,280 Speaker 5: or how you lose by twenty five points in three games. 1647 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, which part of. 1648 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:46,240 Speaker 5: The surprise, Which part of your surprise that those teams 1649 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:46,639 Speaker 5: are better? 1650 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 1: The teams are better. 1651 01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:50,920 Speaker 3: The Central Florida game is bad. 1652 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 5: The Central far Other game is absolutely bad. That's the 1653 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 5: one that stands out like a red herring. Clemson was 1654 01:11:56,880 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 5: being talked about as being a national champion. They stumbled 1655 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:02,040 Speaker 5: out the gate or whatever. But let's not act like 1656 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 5: Clemson are the little sisters of the poor, and they 1657 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 5: don't have talent, and they're not a team that we 1658 01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:08,879 Speaker 5: expected to be a playoff team, so they were expected 1659 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 5: to lose. The Clemson TCU was a bit of a 1660 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:14,000 Speaker 5: toss up, just because TCU is a really good program. 1661 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 5: But it's the season opening. Two years ago they played 1662 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:20,160 Speaker 5: Colorado and Colorado took them down. Given that experience where 1663 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:22,760 Speaker 5: they played Colorado and all of the noise that came 1664 01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 5: with it, they were better prepared to take it on 1665 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:30,839 Speaker 5: this time. What we have are a program being measured 1666 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:36,520 Speaker 5: by outsiders expectations. What matters more. What weoure the internal expectations. 1667 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 5: What do they really expect this team to be? Do 1668 01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 5: they expect this team to be an eight win team 1669 01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:41,719 Speaker 5: or a timent team. 1670 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 1: Whatever that is. That's what they have to measure. 1671 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:47,800 Speaker 5: And while all the noise is going, everyone inside the 1672 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 5: building just needs to focus on what they can control, 1673 01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:50,800 Speaker 5: and that's their job. 1674 01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:53,760 Speaker 1: They do their job, focus on that part of it. 1675 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:54,400 Speaker 1: Let the noise. 1676 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 5: The people are going to talk, because if it turns around, 1677 01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 5: those same people that are talking negatively will then find 1678 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 5: a way to write articles that are positive because the 1679 01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 5: name brings clickbait and value in buzz. That's why people 1680 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 5: keep talking about North Carolina. 1681 01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,479 Speaker 2: You're exactly right, and you know I'm gonna make a 1682 01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 2: long comparison over here to your Jacksonville Jaguars and the 1683 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:17,639 Speaker 2: loss against Central Florida. For North Carolina, Jacksonville was better 1684 01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:19,759 Speaker 2: and it is a better team thans the Cincinnati Bengals. 1685 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 2: They're four and one. They should be five and zero 1686 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:23,920 Speaker 2: right now. That was a bad loss. The Central Florida 1687 01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 2: game was a bad loss. It happens, Okay, I'm sure 1688 01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 2: that was really a loss that still rings mightily in 1689 01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:35,599 Speaker 2: the hearts of the coaching staff of Jacksonville right now, 1690 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,639 Speaker 2: as they see what the Bengals have become. They should 1691 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:40,320 Speaker 2: have beaten that game. They should have beaten the Bengals 1692 01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 2: in that game in Cincinnati. It's a bad loss, but 1693 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 2: it happens, right and just just the nature of the game. 1694 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 2: But we'll see what happens to the rest of their way. 1695 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:49,960 Speaker 2: That's the key right there. But I will tell you 1696 01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:52,800 Speaker 2: this much, I think that Bill Belichick and the minds 1697 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:55,439 Speaker 2: of some they're gonna say his legacy is gonna be tarnished. 1698 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 2: They're gonna say that it was Brady not Belichick, and 1699 01:13:58,120 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 2: those people are crazy, and you're right. 1700 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:02,160 Speaker 3: They just want clicks as all they do. He is 1701 01:14:02,200 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 3: the greatest coach in the history of the nege. 1702 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 5: Like, it doesn't matter all that stuff about the Brady 1703 01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:11,080 Speaker 5: is it Brady, is it Belichick or whatever, It doesn't 1704 01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:11,880 Speaker 5: really matter. 1705 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:12,760 Speaker 1: At the end of the day. 1706 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 5: There's not a great coach who hasn't done it without 1707 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 5: great players. Vince Lombardi had a slew of Hall of 1708 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:19,639 Speaker 5: famers at his watch. 1709 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 1: That is why he won. 1710 01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 5: Typically, the team that wins the team that has the 1711 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,960 Speaker 5: better players. It is a policy in the myth that 1712 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:31,280 Speaker 5: we romanticize that the coach out coached somebody else to win. 1713 01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,080 Speaker 1: Bill Wash with the San Francisco forty nine ers. 1714 01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:36,280 Speaker 5: One because he had Joe Montana and Jerry Rice and 1715 01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:38,479 Speaker 5: others that are in the Hall of Fame like Ronnie Lott. 1716 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 1: That is what it takes. 1717 01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:42,880 Speaker 5: It takes Hall of Fame caliber players to coach at 1718 01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 5: a Hall of Fame level. 1719 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:46,880 Speaker 1: It has never changed and it will always be that way. 1720 01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:50,760 Speaker 5: So a lot of this is performative art that we 1721 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 5: do on our side in the media when we have 1722 01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 5: these discussions about oh, is it Brady, is it Belichick 1723 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 5: or whatever, it's all of them because it takes all 1724 01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 5: of them, great coach, great players to be able to 1725 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:02,160 Speaker 5: win at the highest level. 1726 01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 3: Well said Bucky Brooks. 1727 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 2: I'm Andy Fermweil Fox Football Sunday on Fox Sports Radio, 1728 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:09,519 Speaker 2: and it's time to blow off some steam.

Where is the run game? 1758 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:25,080 Speaker 4: And who do you blame? 1759 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 5: Andy? 1760 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:28,639 Speaker 2: You can go First, I'm blaming the offensive coordinator. It's 1761 01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,880 Speaker 2: proven fact that in years past when things are going 1762 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 2: south for the Eagles, they started running the football. You 1763 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 2: give sa Kwon Barkley, who is the offensive player of 1764 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,320 Speaker 2: the year a year ago, over two thousand yards eleven carries. 1765 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:41,440 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 1766 01:16:41,680 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 2: It's got to be the coaching staff, in particular zuro 1767 01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:46,680 Speaker 2: wing in on the offensive coordinator, probably. 1768 01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:48,680 Speaker 3: Trying to make a name for himself. No, go with 1769 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:49,679 Speaker 3: what got you there? 1770 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,800 Speaker 1: No, that's the players. When you have a J. 1771 01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:57,000 Speaker 5: Brown and others voice and concerns about touches as opposed 1772 01:16:57,040 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 5: to focus on the big part, which is winning, you 1773 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 5: have an issue he career. It's a distraction. Makes it 1774 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:03,559 Speaker 5: harder for the offensive coordinator and focus on the things 1775 01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:06,760 Speaker 5: that make the team successful because then you subconstantly are 1776 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 5: trying to please everybody and they just need to win 1777 01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:09,920 Speaker 5: the games. 1778 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 1: If you win the games, guys can get over it. 1779 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 1: Just find a way to win the game. 1780 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:15,679 Speaker 3: You know what. That's I'm gonna give Bucky a point 1781 01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:17,680 Speaker 3: and that he's right. I blew that one. 1782 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 2: I think that it's the plays internal internal dissension over there. 1783 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 2: Give me the ball. That's basically what it's okay, Bookie 1784 01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:24,880 Speaker 2: gets that one. 1785 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:28,000 Speaker 4: Okay. Aaron Glenn is the only Jets the head coach 1786 01:17:28,040 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 4: to start own five in his first year with the team. Bucky, 1787 01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:31,840 Speaker 4: who do you blame? 1788 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 5: I blame him, like you're coaching it or allowing it 1789 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:38,000 Speaker 5: to happen. The team is on five, they play close games. 1790 01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 1: The thing that has lost. 1791 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:41,760 Speaker 5: They played three one score games that they've lost, but 1792 01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,120 Speaker 5: they haven't found a way to get it done. 1793 01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 1: They have to find a way to get it done. 1794 01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:47,840 Speaker 5: I believe in ag I like what they're trying to do, 1795 01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:49,799 Speaker 5: but the end of the day, it's the bottom line business. 1796 01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:51,800 Speaker 1: You gotta win games, you know. 1797 01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:54,240 Speaker 2: I like to see them win, and I think that 1798 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:57,719 Speaker 2: he can win, but you have to have that winning attitude. 1799 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:00,200 Speaker 2: Once they get over the hump. If they win one 1800 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 2: of those close games, I think they could turn it 1801 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:04,639 Speaker 2: around because I don't think there as bad as their record. 1802 01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:07,719 Speaker 2: But right now, when you start losing and their own 1803 01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:11,040 Speaker 2: five after their first five, you get the tight end, 1804 01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 2: the tight butt, and the thing appointing starts and then 1805 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:16,559 Speaker 2: it gets really ugly. I don't think he's lost the 1806 01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 2: locker room. I really don't, and I think they're decent 1807 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:21,240 Speaker 2: but they got to turn it around rather quickly. 1808 01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:26,040 Speaker 4: All righty, So those the Raiders are struggling offensively, and 1809 01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:28,599 Speaker 4: coach Pete Carroll made a comment about the game plan 1810 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,479 Speaker 4: not being great surrounding ash and gent who do you blame? Andy? 1811 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:33,640 Speaker 1: You know what? 1812 01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:36,920 Speaker 2: That's bad? Keep that internally. I gotta believe the head coach. 1813 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:39,960 Speaker 2: You just can't go public with the game plan. The 1814 01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:43,439 Speaker 2: fans don't care. I honestly, Bucky, I don't believe fans 1815 01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 2: care about game plan. 1816 01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:46,120 Speaker 3: They care about results, you know. 1817 01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:48,720 Speaker 2: And when the coach starts going public about game plan, 1818 01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 2: that's not good. 1819 01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:52,600 Speaker 5: Not a good thing, No, not a good look for 1820 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 5: pekr he knows better. I would blame Pete Carroll, be goes. Ultimately, 1821 01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 5: Chip Kelly has to do with Peak Cara wants. So 1822 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:02,719 Speaker 5: Pete Carroll needs to going in and tell him exactly 1823 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 5: what he wants. And maybe he doesn't get it. He 1824 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 5: has to demand change or. 1825 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 1: He has to change the player that's called the person 1826 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 1: that's called in the place. 1827 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,200 Speaker 3: I agree, is that him? 1828 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 4: That's exactly him? 1829 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 3: Was that Pete Carroll? Literally you'll get another piece of 1830 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:18,680 Speaker 3: chewing gum. 1831 01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:19,360 Speaker 1: Pete go ahead? 1832 01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 6: Really okay? 1833 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:22,960 Speaker 4: So justin Herbert, the Chargers quarterback, is on pace to 1834 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 4: finish his sixth season in the NFL with six hundred 1835 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:29,240 Speaker 4: and twenty five total hits. Andrew Luck was hit five 1836 01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 4: hundred and eighty times in his six year NFL career 1837 01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:33,440 Speaker 4: before he abruptly retired. 1838 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 3: Who do you blame Bucky the injuries. 1839 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:37,839 Speaker 1: On the offensive line. 1840 01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:39,559 Speaker 5: I mean, as much as the coaches want to keep 1841 01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 5: him protected, they can't keep their guys away from the 1842 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:45,680 Speaker 5: blue tent. All of the injuries up front impacted their 1843 01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:48,679 Speaker 5: ability to protect him. And if he's not protected, he's 1844 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 5: going to get hit. That's how it is. 1845 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:51,320 Speaker 3: Now. 1846 01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,400 Speaker 2: Wait, wait just to say it, could it possibly be 1847 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 2: the guys like Andrew Luck and Justin Herbert are really 1848 01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 2: not that mobile quarterbacks and also holding onto the ball 1849 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,400 Speaker 2: too long as well. We've seen that with Russell Wilson. 1850 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:04,280 Speaker 2: Really you hold on to the ball, you go to 1851 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 2: get hit. I mean there's only amount of time was 1852 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,559 Speaker 2: a two point five seconds? So yeah, you're right about 1853 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:10,920 Speaker 2: the offensive line, But I think the offensive line on 1854 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:14,960 Speaker 2: various teams gets a lot of blame for sometimes they 1855 01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:16,200 Speaker 2: don't need to get that blamed. 1856 01:20:16,240 --> 01:20:17,320 Speaker 3: Do you agree with that? Buff? 1857 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,080 Speaker 5: No, it's the blame game. They gotta get blamed. That's 1858 01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 5: what we do. We blame people. Everyone's responsible for the results, 1859 01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:25,840 Speaker 5: so they need to be blamed. Blaming the offensive line. 1860 01:20:25,880 --> 01:20:27,720 Speaker 5: Did I play well enough? That's why they getting hit? 1861 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 3: How do you like that? Anything else? 1862 01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:30,280 Speaker 1: Bre? 1863 01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:31,439 Speaker 3: You got anything else for us? 1864 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 1: No? 1865 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 4: I think you guys hit them all? 1866 01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:34,400 Speaker 3: Really? 1867 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 1: What about the Saints? Saints places we can. 1868 01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:40,280 Speaker 3: They're gonna win, Bucky Right 1869 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 2: Mike Harmon and Gret Cosell next right here on Fox 1870 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 2: Sports Radio.
