So I've talked about this 19 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: before where it's really strange the level of criticism that 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 2: brock Purty gets when he struggles in a game like 21 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: It's kind of odd. I mean, I don't know that 22 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: I've ever seen this much criticism for the quote unquote 23 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: mister irrelevant in my life. And it's almost like people, 24 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 2: and I've discussed this before, it's almost like people are waiting, 25 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: just waiting for him to slip up. And it's the 26 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 2: same people who have been saying, well, they're never going 27 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: to do anything with brock Party and he they you know, 28 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 2: he's showing why he was almost went undrafted and why 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 2: he's not a top tier quarterback and why he's not 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: a franchise quarterback and why it's this and it's that, 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 2: and he's a product of the system and blah blah 32 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. And my point on all that the 33 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 2: entire time has been Okay, So he's a product of 34 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: the system. What do you want him to do? It's like, hey, 35 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: you know, you're a really great guy, but it's only 36 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: because you come from a good family, all right, I 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: want you to go slum it like the rest of us. Oh, hey, 38 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: you know what, that's a great point. I'll tell you what, mom, Dad, 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 2: I'm moving out. I found a methadic down the street 40 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 2: that wants me to share a cardboard box with him, 41 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 2: do you mind. I want to prove myself. I got 42 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: to prove myself I can I can survive in a 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: tough upbringing. So let me go find a scumbag to 44 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: raise me and not decent parents. It's just weird. The 45 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 2: whole conversation's weird about it. And with Brock Prudy, I 46 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: just I struggle to find why people continue to just 47 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 2: pray on any weakness he shows. Oh listen, now, he 48 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: struggled in the rain. Now that that's what the problem was. 49 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 2: He struggled in the rain. Then he got out played 50 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: by Jordan Love. Okay, I mean because apparently that last 51 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: interception by Jordan Love was acceptable. Okay, that's okay, all right, fine, fine, okay, perfect, 52 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: whatever you say. Whatever. But the issue is this, people 53 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 2: want to see it happen. And if you want to 54 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 2: see something happen, chances are it's going to happen. It's 55 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: like those people that claim they see a UFO or 56 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: a vision, you know what I'm talking about. Like you'll 57 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: be out to lunch and they're just staring at a 58 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 2: bullet tortilla chips and they'll look at you and go, 59 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: I see it. You see what? Right there? It's the 60 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: Virgin Mary right there. What do you mean right where? 61 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: Right there? You don't see that? No, it's right there. 62 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, I got to get a picture of this. 63 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: They'll post it and they'll try and convince everybody they 64 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 2: saw it. And you're looking at it, going, dude, it's 65 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: a salt sustain I don't you What are you getting at? 66 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 2: What are you talking? No? No, no, it's right there. Or 67 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: somebody that claims they see a UFO, you know what, 68 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 2: like you know the people like because there's actual UFO 69 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: sidings and they're fascinating and we're seeing more and more 70 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: of them now, which is probably intentional. But that's a 71 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: whole nother conversation for another day. But you'll get these 72 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 2: people that swear to God they see a UFO, swear 73 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 2: to God. And you know what they all have in common, 74 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: the people who see visions or UFOs or claim to 75 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: see this or claim to see that. You know what 76 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: they all got in common. They all really wanted to 77 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: see a vision of the Virgin Mary and their tortilla chips. 78 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: They all really wanted to see a UFO in the sky. 79 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: They wanted it so bad. I got news for you. 80 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: You give me a thirty pack and Alison Chain's album, 81 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: and I can swear to you all see something biblical 82 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: on the back of a Rollo package. This happens all 83 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: the time. People want to see stuff. They want something 84 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 2: to happen been so bad that they'll almost will themselves 85 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 2: to see it. That's what they all have in common. 86 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: I've been there. I've told this story before. Driving on 87 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: the interstate back east to my first radio job in 88 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: South Carolina, and I swore to God, I saw two 89 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: tornadoes twisters. You know what they were, smokestacks in Alabama. 90 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: You want to know why I thought they were tornadoes 91 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: because I want to see one so bad I want 92 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: to see him that I got greedy and thought, now 93 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: one's not enough. Let me talk myself into seeing two 94 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 2: at the same time. What an a hole. But it's 95 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: because I wanted to see it, and those people all 96 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: want to see those things. They've got to see him. 97 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: When you watch Brock Purty play and you see people 98 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 2: jump at him and go up there, it is they 99 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: want him to struggle so bad. They need it. It's 100 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: like blood. At this point. They've got to have it. 101 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: They've got to have that guy's struggle because it proves 102 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: their point and it proves Oh look look see right there, 103 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: but look look at that throw right there. Okay, you 104 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: want to talk about that final driver? No, we want 105 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 2: to talk. We want to Yeah, but see he's getting 106 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: exposed in the playoffs. This is what happens. Okay, I 107 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: didn't know last week was his first playoff game. I 108 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 2: was unaware of that. Was that his first playoff game? 109 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: Oh it wasn't. Oh he had a couple last year too. Well, 110 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: let me go ahead and look that up. How do 111 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 2: you do last year? Let me take a look at 112 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,679 Speaker 2: the playoffs last year for Brock Purty as a rookie, okay, 113 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: as a let's see if the three touchdowns no picks, 114 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 2: they were two to one. They lost one game because 115 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: he got injured and couldn't return. But okay, this and that, 116 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: so that goes on, all right, Because here's what I know. 117 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: When Brock Purdy starts and finishes a game, the Niners 118 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: are undefeated in the playoffs. That's what I know. I mean, 119 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: that's all I'm looking at. That's all I'm seeing. So 120 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 2: I don't know what visions you got going on, but 121 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 2: I know what I see. And when you watched last 122 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 2: week and oh, I mean, you know he's struggling and 123 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: see he can't throw on the rain and he can't 124 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: do this. It's like you want to see his flaws 125 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: so bad because you can't handle the fact that you 126 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: might have gotten this one wrong, that you might have 127 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 2: gotten this one wrong. They are a game away and 128 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 2: a seven point favorite of going to the super Bowl, 129 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: and it's there's a flaw. There's a flaw right there, 130 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: right there. It's okay to just sit down at lunch 131 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: or have a thirty pack and listen to an Alison 132 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: Chains album, or drive on the interstate and not have 133 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: to see something or be aware of what's around you, 134 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: because hey, I've seen these reports. There's a light in 135 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: the sky. What could it be? I don't know. Maybe 136 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: somebody passed out holding onto a mag light. I have 137 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: no idea. Hey, you see that right over there. It's 138 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 2: it's moving in a strange direction. It's making a spiral. 139 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: You see that right What do you think that is? 140 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. A couple of drunks playing frisbee at night. 141 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. 142 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: But stop looking for it, because if you look hard enough, 143 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 2: you can see anything and that's exactly what's happening with 144 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: Brock Purty, Jonas Knox, he or Fox Sports Radio. I'd 145 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: also like to give a little bit of credit here 146 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 2: to the NFL on something, because the NFL gets a 147 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: lot of criticism for a lot of reasons, and it's understandable, 148 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: but I would like to give credit to the NFL 149 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 2: for calling their shot because people complain sometimes about these matchups, 150 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 2: you know, like we'll talk about the Amazon Prime games 151 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: and everybody says, well, you know, these games are crap. 152 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 2: You know we've get We've gotten this game and this game, 153 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: and my whole point on this has been a couple 154 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: of things. Ay, you complain now, but as Martin just 155 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 2: talked about, we got a Wizard's game on during the 156 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: day on a Saturday. Okay, So for all of you 157 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 2: complaining about football, that's your reality coming up in a 158 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Just telling you. But also this, Sometimes 159 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: the NFL does call their shot, and sometimes they do 160 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: get it right. Remember when the schedule came out for 161 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, You remember how people were kind of disappointed, like, ugh, 162 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: the Lions and the Chiefs to open up the year. 163 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: Of all. 164 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you couldn't have the Bills. Again, we couldn't 165 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 2: see the Bangles and the Chiefs. I mean, those are 166 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 2: much better matchups. Why would you put the Lions and 167 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: the Chiefs to open up the year? What do you? 168 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 2: And yet here they are a game away from bookending 169 00:09:54,720 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: the season. When has that ever happened? Or the NFL 170 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: says that's the game we're starting with and that might 171 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 2: be the game we're also ending with. When has that 172 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 2: ever happened? So as much as we want to sit 173 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: here and bust the NFL's balls and say they get 174 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 2: this wrong and they've got scheduling issues here and this 175 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: is a bad matchup on this night, and this one 176 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: doesn't work here, and we don't need two Monday night 177 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 2: football games here because that team stinks and this team is. 178 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 2: As much as we want to criticize them, the NFL 179 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: got that one right. And they're a game away on 180 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 2: each side of the conference from getting this one right 181 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 2: as well too. We could bookend the NFL season Chiefs 182 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 2: Lions a game away. Whether or not that happens, you'll 183 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 2: find out later on when I get my picks and 184 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 2: Knox locks Jonas Knox here on Fox Sports Radio and Yes, 185 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: we will close up with Knox Locks as we take 186 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: you all the way up until four pm Eastern time, 187 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 2: one o'clock Pacific.

Something is very clear 216 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 2: and very obvious. I took note of it earlier today 217 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 2: in the NFL involving a star player, and I'll tell 218 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 2: you what it is again coming up here a little 219 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: over ten minutes from now on FSR.

And again that's yours here 222 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio ten minutes from now. So somebody 223 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 2: threw out an idea or just kind of tossed it 224 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: out there on X or Twitter or whatever you want 225 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 2: to call it. John Middlecoff, who does some stuff with 226 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: the volume. He also is a an NFL analyst here 227 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 2: at Fox Sports Radio. Good dude, and I've had a 228 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: chance to meet him before. He kind of threw out 229 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 2: the potential of something and he does a good job 230 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: kind of you know, brainstorming and throwing out possibilities, and 231 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: he said, what are the chances that Sean McVay has 232 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 2: talked to Belichick and kind of threw out fifteen to 233 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 2: twenty million dollars for one year? Would you come run 234 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 2: the defense? And you look at it and you go, well, 235 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 2: why would Belichick ever go be a defensive coordinator? Like, 236 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 2: why would he ever go why would he ever take 237 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: a step back and go do that ever? Again, Well, 238 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 2: you probably asked that about Belichick a lot of times. 239 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: Why would he do this? Why would he cut this 240 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 2: player here? Why would he move on from that guy here? 241 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 2: Why would he defer here? Like there's a lot of 242 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: things Belichick has done that have been unconventional. But when 243 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 2: you look at and take a step back, I think 244 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: we all acknowledge what's going on with Belichick. We all 245 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: acknowledge why he's not probably going to coach from a 246 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 2: head coaching level this upcoming season because he wants full 247 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 2: control and he wants the same level of power that 248 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: he had in New England, and that doesn't exist anywhere else, 249 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 2: just doesn't. That was something that was done over twenty 250 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 2: years ago. Robert Kraft brought him in. Belichick had it 251 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: and as Albert Brier always puts it, it was turnkey. 252 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: It was a turnkey operation. And if it were up 253 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 2: to Belichick, he'd still be in New England. Like Robert 254 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 2: Craft's the one that wanted to move on. They let 255 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 2: it be mutual and kind of gave it. But you know, 256 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 2: for all intents and purposes, he was fired. And we've 257 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 2: talked to Albert Breer about it on Two Pros and 258 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 2: a Cup of Joe for weeks and weeks, and he said, listen, 259 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 2: like that's where this is headed. Like they're going to 260 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: find some sort of a way to be an amicable split. 261 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 2: But Belichick didn't want to leave New England because he's 262 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: got everything that he wants there from a power standpoint. 263 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: So you've got the Atlanta Falcons job, which everybody assumed 264 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: Belichick would take that job, and then you find out 265 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: there was a little bit of a power struggle and 266 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 2: they didn't exactly want to have to defer to Belichick, 267 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 2: and so then you know they made it to you know, 268 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: Adam Schefter was out there saying, oh, well, you know, 269 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: after Raheem Morris was hired, Rich McKay is you know, 270 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 2: they're no longer reporting to him, which is all kind 271 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: of fluff for well, you know, maybe Rich McKay just 272 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 2: didn't want to be the fall guy if the reheem 273 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 2: Mors stuff doesn't work out. So you've got all of that, 274 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 2: But the fact of the matter is Belichick isn't getting 275 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: what he wants from a control standpoint. So that's why 276 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: he's not the Falcons head coach. That's why he's probably 277 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 2: not being interviewed by anybody else. And so when you 278 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: throw out the potential of him going to be a 279 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: decordinator with the Rams or somebody else, I want nothing 280 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 2: more than this to happen. Could you imagine Bill Belichick 281 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: on a red ass tour as de coordinator, even if 282 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 2: it was for one year, because nobody questions whether or 283 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: not he can still coach. That's not what this is about. Like, 284 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 2: nobody questions whether or not Belichick, you know, like his 285 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 2: talent evaluation maybe has been suspect or people have questioned 286 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: that his decision to move on from Tom Brady, who 287 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 2: clearly had more left in the tank. That's probably what 288 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: he's going to be criticized the most for his final 289 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 2: years in New England. But nobody questions whether or not 290 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: Belichick and coach. Like if you looked at that team 291 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 2: in comparison talent wise to the rest of the AFC East, 292 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 2: like I mean, it was, we're not even not even 293 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: in the same ballpark or the stratosphere. And if they 294 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: still managed to win a few games, like they weren't 295 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 2: the worst team in the league. They you know, they 296 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: beat the Steelers that were like there was moments for 297 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: New England last year. We look and go, man, the 298 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: guy can still coach. It's all about control and what 299 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: level of power he has with the organization. But if 300 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 2: Belichick did want to do something unconventional, and I say 301 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 2: unconventional because I don't think anybody believes that Belichick would 302 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 2: take a step back and be a defensive coordinator, what 303 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: if he did. What if is John middlecoff throughout there, 304 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: Sean McVay calls up Belichick and says, hey, what if 305 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 2: I give you all this, are you willing to come 306 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 2: be a defensive coordinator? What if I pay you this 307 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 2: much for one year, come be a decordinator? Because if 308 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 2: Belichick goes out and takes that Rams defense in that 309 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: Rams team, which by the way, performed at a level 310 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: that it got Raheem Morris the job in Atlanta. If 311 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 2: Belichick went over and took that job and that Rams 312 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 2: defense performed well again with Aaron Donald and all those 313 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: rookies that have hit Turner, all those guys that have 314 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: hit that the Rams hit on in the middle rounds 315 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 2: this year, that would go a long way into shutting 316 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 2: a lot of people up, and a lot of people 317 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: that had Belichick pegged as well, he can't do it 318 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: without Brady and he can't. Okay, that's fine. You could 319 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 2: add that discussion all you want. But if he did 320 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 2: take one of these spots somewhere in the NFL an 321 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 2: opening for defensive coordinator, and Sean McVay, I think is 322 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 2: the type of guy who would go listen, I don't care. 323 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 2: Like he's had so many assistants leave and take other 324 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 2: jobs at this point. If you were to say, hey, 325 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: Sean McVay, what do you think about mercenary Bill Belichick 326 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 2: for one year as your decordinator? I think he'd absolutely 327 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: be open to it. Like if you paid him the 328 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 2: type of salary that we're talking about here and he 329 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: got just to be around football. The guy loves football 330 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 2: in his you know, he's got a day off, he's 331 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 2: at the Navy game, putting on a Navy helmet that 332 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: he had from you know, the nineteen fifties or whatever 333 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 2: it was. Like, he loves football. He still wants to 334 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 2: be around it. Like if Belichick took a job and 335 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 2: just went on this red ass tour as decordinator because 336 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 2: he wants another opportunity to coach, because he wants the 337 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: all time wins record, And so if he did take 338 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: this job and they performed well, all of a sudden, 339 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 2: a lot of the discussion about him as he distances 340 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 2: himself from the new England Patriots, who, based on where 341 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,239 Speaker 2: they're at, probably are going to struggle next year as 342 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 2: well too. Look, Aaron Rodgers is going to be back healthy, 343 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 2: the Bills are still good. You would assume Miami's still 344 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 2: going to be a good team. The Patriots on paper 345 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 2: look like they're gonna finish last in the AFC East. Again, 346 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: if Belichick gets a year away from that and ends 347 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 2: up as a decordinator somewhere like the Rams or somewhere else, 348 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: and they perform well, all of a sudden, the conversation 349 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 2: about him is completely different, And I would be fair 350 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 2: let's be honest here. It is kind of ridiculous. The 351 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 2: guy who hasn't never head coaching job kind of ridiculous. 352 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: I think, obviously, as we've touched on, that's his doing 353 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 2: because he wants a certain level of control. But the 354 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 2: fact that nobody kicked the tires on him, that nobody 355 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: even brought him in for an interview, that nobody even 356 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 2: had a discussion with him, it's like, well, what's he 357 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 2: ever done? I don't know, like one more games and 358 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 2: everybody except for one guy in the NFL, you know, 359 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 2: just that just that, you know, just coached a bunch 360 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 2: of Hall of Fame players, like everyone wants to talk 361 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 2: about a Oh, it's just Tom Brady. Tom Brady. Look 362 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 2: at all the Hall of Fame guys that he has 363 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 2: coached when he was the defensive coordinator with the Giants 364 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 2: when he got to New England, Like, there's a lot 365 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: of players that a lot of people looked at and said, 366 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: what could you do with those guys? Belichick spotted Wes 367 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 2: Welker because Wes Welker was kicking pats or field goals 368 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 2: for the Dolphins because of the Olindo Maury, their kicker 369 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 2: got injured Belichick. Salmon said, that guy can do a lot. 370 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 2: I'll take him Julian Edelman. Edelman was a quarterback in 371 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 2: college Belichick. Salmons said, Okay, we could do something with 372 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: that guy like he's made. A lot of players have 373 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: successful to great careers in the NFL and won a 374 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 2: lot of Super Bowls. It's not just Tom Brady. So 375 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 2: when Middlecoff throws out the potential of Belichick being a 376 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 2: decordinator somewhere, I would be fascinated to see that happen. 377 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 2: That would be a tremendous watch for the greatest of 378 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,239 Speaker 2: all time to take a step back, maybe humble him 379 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 2: his health a little bit, and then go on a 380 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 2: red ass tour for one year to prove to everybody. 381 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 2: You think I'm washed, you think I can't do this anymore? 382 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 2: Watch this. It would be a fun and entertaining watch. 383 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 2: Next year, Belichick did indeed take a step back into 384 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 2: a DC job somewhere like the Rams. As John Middlecoff 385 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 2: pointed out earlier today, it is Jonas Knox here on 386 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio again.

By 426 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 2: the way, I'll just say this and I'm not trying 427 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: to start a conspiracy theory here. But I'll just say this, 428 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 2: it is a little interesting that all of a sudden 429 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: you get a bunch of players in the NBA scoring 430 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 2: like sixty and seventy points in a small amount of time, 431 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 2: just saying, and the timing's a little odd, you know, 432 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 2: it's a little odd. Joel emb just happens to do 433 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 2: it on the anniversary of Kobe Bryant scoring eighty one 434 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: and Karl Anthony Towns and you know, Lucas scores you know, 435 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 2: seventy three like it, you know, And I'm just I'm 436 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 2: just throwing this out there, just spitballing. I'm not trying 437 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: to stir the pod here. I'm not trying to piss 438 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,239 Speaker 2: anybody off. Listen. I like the NBA two all right. 439 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 2: When I criticized the NBA, it's because I know how 440 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 2: sensitive NBA fans get, all right, So if you show 441 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 2: me that, I'm going to go there. 442 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 5: You know. 443 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 2: It's like it's like they always tell fighters, Hey, if 444 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 2: you've got an injured ankle, don't just tape one of 445 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 2: them when you go into a fight. You gotta tape 446 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 2: both of them so nobody knows something's wrong. People are 447 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 2: too sensitive that cover the NBA, so when you take 448 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 2: a shot at him or make a joke, they get 449 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 2: upset about it. I like the NBA too. I'm just 450 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 2: saying it is a little interesting that all of a sudden, 451 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 2: the NFL season is starting to wind down and now 452 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 2: you're seeing players score seventy points a clip, you know, 453 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: within like a three night span. A little weird. Just say, 454 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 2: it's a little odd, you know, you just you kind 455 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 2: of wonder if maybe this is similar to what happened 456 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 2: with Major League Baseball, where you know, a lot of 457 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: people were upset about, you know, the strike back in 458 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 2: ninety four. They were in a bad place. Ratings were bad, 459 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: people gave up on it, they were pissed off at 460 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 2: the sport. And then next thing you know, Mark McGuire 461 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 2: and Sammy Soser are hitting sixty home runs a piece. 462 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: Now they were on the gas. I'm not saying Luca 463 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 2: is on the gas. I don't believe that's the case, 464 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: but I think major League Baseball realized we got to 465 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: do something, man, because we're losing here. We got to 466 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: turn this thing around. And I just wonder if maybe 467 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 2: there's a little bit of that going on just saying, 468 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 2: just throwing it out there, just spitballing, all right, not 469 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 2: calling it a conspiracy theory. I just find the timing 470 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 2: of it a little bit interesting, right, just throwing it 471 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 2: out there. You can be upset with it, you can 472 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,360 Speaker 2: scoff at it, you can laugh at it all you want. 473 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 2: I'm just saying it is a little odd. 474 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 3: All right. 475 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 2: We are going to have another edition of Do You 476 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: Care coming up here at about fifteen minutes from now 477 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 2: from the ti iraq dot com studios. But I do 478 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 2: want to touch on this because it is very obvious 479 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: to me. They were showing earlier today on NFL Network 480 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 2: a game between the Chiefs and the Ravens from twenty eighteen, 481 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 2: and it was you know, Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson 482 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 2: obviously years and years ago. And like it's pretty obvious 483 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 2: just by watching that game how much better Lamar jacks 484 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 2: and has gotten as a quarterback. Like you don't have 485 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 2: to take a snap in the NFL. You don't have 486 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 2: to have thrown a football at all. You don't even 487 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 2: have to have hands like you could be you could 488 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 2: walk by, you could bring somebody who doesn't watch football, 489 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 2: which we refer to people who don't watch football as losers, 490 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 2: and that's what we call him on this show. Again, 491 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 2: you can call him whatever you want here, but I 492 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: mean we like to hand out compliments here. So if 493 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 2: you want to be negative and you want to put 494 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: people down, that's fine. That's on you on this show. 495 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: Anybody that doesn't watch football we refer to as a loser. Loser, 496 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 2: But you could take one of those losers and show 497 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 2: him a Lamar Jackson game from twenty eighteen like we watched, 498 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: and show him a Lamar Jackson game from twenty twenty three, 499 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 2: and it's significantly different. He is a much better player. 500 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: And I've always been a fan of Lamar Jackson, but 501 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 2: it's obvious how much better he's gotten. And I'm telling 502 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: you right now, and I'm going to predict the future 503 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: when it comes to Lamar Jackson that if the Baltimore Ravens, 504 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: and again I'm not saying this is going to happen, 505 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 2: because I'll get to that as we close up the 506 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: show here in Knox Locks. I'm not telling you who 507 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 2: I think is gonna win either game until the end 508 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: of this show, but Lamar Jackson at some point, if 509 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: they play well and he plays well, and the Baltimore 510 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 2: Ravens win that game. In advance to a super Bowl, 511 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: You're going to hear a couple of narratives and discussions 512 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: be thrown out there right. One of them is going 513 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 2: to be people saying, well, I thought a running quarterback 514 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 2: couldn't lead his team to a super Bowl. I thought 515 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson couldn't lead his team to which I took 516 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 2: no part of. I've always been a fan of Lamar Jackson, 517 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 2: always been a fan, love what the guy does, always 518 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 2: thought they could win at a high level with him. 519 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 2: I think he gets criticized for the playoff game a 520 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: couple of years ago when they had a first round 521 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 2: by and Tennessee waxed him at home like that was 522 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 2: a bad game. He admitted it. John Harbaugh admitted it. 523 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 2: They came in rusty, they were flat, and Tennessee was 524 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 2: was on fire and they were hot. But I just 525 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 2: I look at it and I go, Okay, so you're 526 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 2: gonna you're gonna hear some of those people who want 527 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 2: to shout at you know, a shout at the clouds 528 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 2: and say, listen, everybody said he couldn't win a big 529 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 2: game or he couldn't beat Patrick here he is. If 530 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 2: that happens, you're also gonna hear this crowd that people saying, well, 531 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: how come nobody pursued him when Baltimore and him were 532 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: having those discussions and he was available, because probably everybody 533 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 2: in the NFL realized Baltimore was never gonna lose Lamar Jackson. 534 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 2: They were never gonna let him go. Ever, well, yeah, 535 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 2: but what it cost him, they would have gotten a 536 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 2: couple of first round picks back. They were never going 537 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 2: to get rid of Lamar Jackson. He was never playing 538 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 2: anywhere else. When everybody was jumping at the conversation and 539 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 2: jumping at the discussion and having that discussion during the 540 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: offseason when they were like, oh ball, Lamar Jackson's played 541 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: his last game with the Ravens. No, he hasn't. They 542 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 2: were never gonna let him go. You don't think you 543 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 2: think Baltimore, more of all teams, doesn't realize or recognize 544 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 2: what they have in Lamar Jackson. You don't think. 545 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: So. 546 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 2: It's negotiations, and sometimes negotiations are difficult, and those were 547 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: difficult negotiations. You don't think. You don't think John Harbaugh 548 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 2: recognizes what he's got Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson's the reason 549 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 2: that John Harbaugh's still there. And if you think I'm crazy, 550 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 2: go back to his rookie year. There was the discussion 551 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: that everybody was going out at the same time. Joe 552 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 2: Flacco was gone. That was a wrap. John Harbaugh was 553 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: going to be gone at the end of the season. 554 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 2: Ozzy k newsoon was retiring. It made sense. You turn 555 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 2: over everything, you start fresh. It was a great era 556 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: of football. You won a super Bowl, but now everybody 557 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 2: moves on and next thing you know, Lamar Jackson starts 558 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 2: for the Ravens. They go on a heater, they make 559 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 2: the playoffs, and John Harbaugh's getting a contract extension after 560 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 2: the year. You think of all organizations in the NFL 561 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 2: that the Ravens didn't realize what they had in Lamar Jackson. 562 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 2: They were consistent the entire time. Harbaugh was consistent the 563 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 2: entire time. 564 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: So the whole. 565 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 2: Discussion that why how could teams in the NFL not 566 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 2: have not have made a run at Lamar Jackson because 567 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 2: they knew Baltimore was never letting him go. Ever, that 568 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 2: was never a discussion and I was consistent on that 569 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: the entire time. And trust me, this isn't me, you know, 570 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 2: washing myself here, so to speak. I fully admit when 571 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 2: I get stuff wrong, like most of my picks during 572 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: the regular season in the NFL against the spread, but 573 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 2: I was consistent the entire time saying he's never going anywhere. 574 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 2: He's not leaving Baltimore, He's never Well, what about the Falcons, 575 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 2: never gonna happen. What about the Miami Dolphins he loves 576 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 2: South Beach, never gonna happen. Well, what about this team? 577 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 2: They makes it, never gonna happen. Ever, they were never 578 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 2: letting him go. So I'm telling you, I will predict 579 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 2: the future right now. If the Baltimore Ravens and Lamar 580 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: Jackson win tomorrow and he plays well, you are going 581 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: to hear people go to social media or go on 582 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: a radio show, or go on a TV show or 583 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 2: a podcast or TikTok or twitch or whatever else they 584 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 2: want to go on, and you're gonna hear two things. 585 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: Either I thought he couldn't win the big one, or 586 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 2: I thought the Ravens and I thought the teams in 587 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 2: the NFL should be disgraced, they should be embarrassed they 588 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: didn't make Dude, it was never gonna happen. He was 589 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: never going anywhere else. And yes, they can win significant 590 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 2: games with Lamar Jackson, and they always could. A lot 591 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: of things had to fall in place, and this year 592 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: they did, and that's why he's also the MVP of 593 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 2: the league.

Coach seems 630 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 7: to be enjoying his retirement. So, Jonas, do you care? 631 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, this is great, what a feel good story. 632 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 4: I love it. 633 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 2: Here like in this day and age of football where 634 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 2: everybody's trying to push out the quote unquote old guys, 635 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: which is so disrespectful. You know, what's happening to Belichick? 636 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: Nick saban having to walk away from college football because 637 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 2: he was tired of having answer questions from assistant coaches saying, well, 638 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 2: how long you're gonna be there? How long you're gonna 639 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 2: be there? It's like, you know, Nick Sabon said, you 640 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 2: know what, screw this, I'm the best to ever do it. 641 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm walking away and I'm gonna go learn how to surf. 642 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 2: Good for him, By the way, I wonder, since he's 643 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: now retired, does Belichick still do the little Debbie oatmeal 644 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 2: cookie thing. I don't know if you guys were aware 645 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 2: of that, but Belichick his routine every morning he would 646 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: have two of those little Debbie oatmeal cookies, those little 647 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: soft ones with like the marshmallow inside of them, with 648 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: his coffee. And I don't know if you grew up 649 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: like me, but those little Debbie oatmeal cookies. First of all, 650 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,959 Speaker 2: they've shrunk over the year's bo But you could wipe 651 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: out a whole box of those easy, no no issues 652 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 2: whatsoever with that. Yeah, No, those are fantastic. And if 653 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 2: you put him in the fridge, get him a little 654 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 2: bit cold, you know. So, I wonder if Nick Saban's 655 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 2: diet still consists of that even after his post coaching career. 656 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 7: Do you think that, like, if Nick Saban calls a 657 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 7: family meeting, he's going to put a bottle of coke 658 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 7: in front of him while. 659 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 2: He delivers the and then pounds the podium. Yeah, you 660 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 2: just hear the sounds of impounding the podium. That would 661 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 2: be Listen, told you to take the trash out last night. 662 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,879 Speaker 2: You have to. You have to like that. That's his theme. 663 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 2: That's what he does next. 664 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 7: Yeah. NBA legend Charles Barkley said that he has been 665 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 7: rooting for the Lions this year because of his quote 666 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 7: unquote man crush on head coach Dan Campbell Jonas do 667 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 7: you care? 668 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. 669 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 3: I love it. 670 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 2: Listen, this is a guy. And again, you know, I 671 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 2: supported a lot of people mock this guy, just like 672 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 2: a lot of people were critical of Lamar Jackson. He 673 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 2: can't can't win big games. You can't win big games 674 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 2: with Lamar Jackson. I was always supportive. I was always 675 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 2: supportive of Dan Campbell. Always said, listen, you can make 676 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 2: fun of this guy all you want, and him biting 677 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 2: kneecaps and drinking way too much coffee and wearn't a 678 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 2: racing helmet to press conferences. But what he's done there 679 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,439 Speaker 2: has been so impressive, and it's a model I think 680 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,240 Speaker 2: a lot of people are going to try and copy 681 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 2: around the NFL. Good luck with that. There's only one 682 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 2: Dan Campbell getting line Charles Barkley next. 683 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 7: The milwak Key Bucks officially hired Doc Rivers as their 684 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:09,760 Speaker 7: head coach after they fired Adrian Griffin midseason. Earlier this week, Jonas, 685 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 7: do you care? 686 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 2: Look, I don't know why anybody would want to be 687 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: a coach at the professional level. Ever, Why Adriane Griffin? 688 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,240 Speaker 2: Through forty three games, they had the second best record 689 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: in the NBA and he got fired? Like what what 690 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 2: it's going on here? What? What is happening? Well, because 691 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 2: you know, well, so were you, Vince? But the point is, like, 692 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 2: what is it like the idea that that is an 693 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 2: acceptable and reasonable action at this point during the season? Well, look, 694 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 2: I mean it was, you know, the writing was on 695 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 2: the wall. What writing? Well, their defensive efficiency slipped from 696 00:36:57,840 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 2: last year? Okay, then why'd you. 697 00:36:59,320 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 1: Fire the other? 698 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 4: Like? 699 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,879 Speaker 2: None of it makes sense, Bo, None of it makes say. 700 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 7: I can't believe that the team that traded for Damian 701 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 7: Lillard saw a drop in their defense exactly. But do 702 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 7: you think, like you know, how we kind of crown 703 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 7: clown Lebron for getting coaches fired. Do you think Giannis 704 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 7: is going to face any of the same criticism for this, 705 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 7: because it's it's the same thing, if not worse. 706 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean he's a lot more likable than Lebron, 707 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 2: so that's why you know he probably won't. But yeah, 708 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 2: it's we're looking at if this happened with Lebron, and 709 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 2: it has, he would be criticized for it. It doesn't 710 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 2: happen with the honest but it's like the whole it's like, 711 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 2: what what do you to your to your point, what 712 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,919 Speaker 2: do you think is gonna happen defensively when you let 713 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 2: go of Drew Holiday and you add Damian Lillard? What 714 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 2: do you think you can't have it all? 715 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 7: Like we all knew that was the trade off. 716 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 2: It's like like you literally can't, like you cannot have 717 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 2: it all, Like you got to make some sacrifices. That 718 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,439 Speaker 2: was one of them. And yet here we are next. 719 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 7: Speaking of the NBA. We did have a couple seventy 720 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 7: point games in the NBA this week. Joel mb dropped 721 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 7: six or seventy on the Spurs, and Luca last night 722 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 7: dropped seventy three on the Hawks. 723 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 2: Jonas, do you care? Nope? 724 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 7: Nags a Jackie Robinson statue in Whichita Kansas was stolen 725 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 7: after thieves cut it down from the ankles and took 726 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:16,879 Speaker 7: it from the park that it was located in. 727 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:23,879 Speaker 2: Do you care? Yeah, because it's just like, listen, I've 728 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,720 Speaker 2: done like a lot of pranks when I was younger, 729 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 2: Like you've met, like in high school, you have these 730 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 2: junior senior wars where people with TP houses and things 731 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: like that, or you know, I've thrown water balloons off 732 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: a parking structure, people walking out of movie theaters. Listen, 733 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 2: it was not nice, but you're a kid. It happens 734 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 2: like people do dumb stuff. Never one time in the 735 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,280 Speaker 2: midst of either sobriety or drunkenness that I think, hey, guys, 736 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 2: I got an idea. Let's go cut the Jackie Robinson 737 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 2: statue off at the park at the ankles and then 738 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 2: take it with us for what, like, what is the 739 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 2: point again, It's like the firing of Milwaukee. I don't 740 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 2: get it. It doesn't make sense. 741 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 7: Next, the Internet was buzzing after Ryan Gosling was nominated 742 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 7: for an Academy Award for his role in Barbie, while 743 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 7: his co starr Margo Robie and director Greta Gerwig were not.

Like he's played well last week. 784 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: He didn't play all that hot, but he had a 785 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 2: great drive to close out the game. It was a 786 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: game winning drive and it was Jordan Love who threw 787 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 2: the pick. Like I hear more about brock purty struggles 788 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 2: than Jordan Love throwing two picks and the last one 789 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 2: was an awful decision and they lost the game. But 790 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: like the more what you hear this week, entire week 791 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 2: is od see, brock Purty got exposed. 792 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: He we was exposed. 793 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 2: That's why he's the last pick in the draft. Like, dude, 794 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 2: you just want to see something. And it made the 795 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 2: point earlier. It's like these people who swear they'll either 796 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 2: see a UFO or a vision or something.

And I feel like 802 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 2: that's where we're at, and it's such a hot button 803 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 2: issue to where people are divided either you believe brock 804 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,799 Speaker 2: Party is a good quarterback or you think he's you know, 805 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,959 Speaker 2: overachieving because of the situation. Like it's so you're gonna 806 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 2: see a lot of that, and that'll be a lot 807 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: of the focal point tomorrow is how brock Party performs. 808 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,919 Speaker 2: And it's a dividing line and a subject that gets 809 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 2: people arguing one way or the other, which is great 810 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 2: for what we do. So I'm not going to complain 811 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 2: about it. But here's where the you're on one side 812 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 2: of the fence or the other sort of disappears in 813 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 2: the world of football.

And that concerns me because normally when 820 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 2: everybody's in agreement, something bad's gonna happen. Like everybody is 821 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 2: in agreement and in unison, all saying the same thing 822 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 2: man home run higher for the Chargers.

It's like, okay, all right, 828 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 2: Like listen, you want to hold onto that, you can 829 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 2: hold on too that. It's like the same people that 830 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 2: hold on to deflate Gate. All right, Look, they won 831 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 2: a super Bowl after that, Like I don't like, I mean, 832 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 2: what do you like, what are you what are you 833 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 2: looking for here? Like, like, what's well, they were cheating, 834 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 2: they had an advantage, Okay, Well what about after it 835 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: was found? Like like what are we like, what are 836 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 2: you doing? Well, they were stealing signs, okay, and then 837 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 2: they were then it was discovered. Okay, let's say they 838 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 2: were stealing signs and they were cheating. All right, we 839 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 2: discovered it. What happened afterwards? Oh nothing, They just went 840 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 2: undefeated and won a national title. But again, keep holding 841 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 2: on to that, like you're like, maybe there's a couple 842 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 2: of those floating out there. But from a fit standpoint. 843 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 2: I don't know anybody that has been critical of the 844 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 2: hiring of Jim Harbaugh. I think everybody recognizes, dude, the 845 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 2: guy can coach. And I've made the point where if 846 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: you just go through his track record, it isn't like 847 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 2: we've got one situation where it worked and you go, well, 848 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,839 Speaker 2: it worked here, so let's hope it works there. It's 849 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 2: worked everywhere with him. It worked at San Diego University 850 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 2: of San Diego when he was there, it worked at Stanford, 851 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 2: it worked with the forty nine ers, it worked at Michigan, 852 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 2: like it's worked everywhere. The guy can coach, coaches his 853 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 2: ass off. Like People forget the Niners team that he 854 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 2: took over, or the Stanford team he took over, like 855 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 2: they were struggling and it took it took him a 856 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 2: couple of years to get his guys in there. But 857 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 2: once he did, Stanford was a problem. I mean they 858 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,839 Speaker 2: were significant underdogs against USC and Pete Carroll and they 859 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 2: wiped the floor with USC. Like he built that program up. 860 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 2: He built Michigan. People forget how bad Michigan was when 861 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 2: he took over. Michigan was struggling, And I love Brady Hoke, 862 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 2: he fan of Fox Sports Radio. I have it on 863 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 2: good authority. Brady Hoak listens to two Pros and a 864 00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 2: Cup of Joe in the morning on Fox Sports Radio. 865 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 2: I have that from a legitimate source who tells me that, 866 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 2: all right, so love him. But like Michigan was in 867 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 2: a bad way and it wasn't working there and Harba 868 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:15,240 Speaker 2: took over, and look where they are. Like the forty 869 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 2: nine ers, man Alex Smith was their quarterback who was 870 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 2: the number one pick. They couldn't get anybody to get 871 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 2: Alex Smith to play at the level that he could 872 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,720 Speaker 2: Jim Harva did. They were in an NFC title game 873 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 2: and lost in overtime to the Giants to go to 874 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. They took the Giants to overtime and 875 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 2: the Giants won the Super Bowl that year with Alex Smith. 876 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 2: Colin Kaepernick was a second round pick. Nobody thought cap 877 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 2: Jim Harva did that. It's like you can't find anybody 878 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 2: who says, man, this isn't gonna work. This is a 879 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 2: great hire. And that concerns me because normally when everybody 880 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 2: is riding the same path and kind of all on 881 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 2: the same side of everything, usually that's when things go poorly. 882 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 2: You know, it's like teams that win the off season, 883 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 2: it's like, man, oh man, look at all the moves 884 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 2: this team made. There's no way they're not going to 885 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 2: be the best team in the league. And then afterwards 886 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 2: you go, ooh, yeah, it didn't go too well, made 887 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 2: all those moves. I just again, I'm still gonna side 888 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,879 Speaker 2: with my opinion on it, which is it's gonna work. 889 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 2: It's always worked. Everywhere he's gone, it's worked. But I 890 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 2: can't help but think that we're all in agreement on something, 891 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 2: and ultimately that concerns me because usually it goes the 892 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 2: other way. Now here's another head coach and another coaching 893 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 2: situation that concerns me, and it's a great story. So 894 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 2: Dave Canalis gets the job with the Carolina Panthers a 895 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 2: couple of days ago. They name him as the head coach, 896 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 2: and it's surprising to a lot of people he gets 897 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 2: a six year deal. I don't think a lot of 898 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 2: people looked at Dave Canalis as being a guy who 899 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 2: would be under consideration. But if you actually followed his path, 900 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 2: did great work in Seattle with Gino Smith, also with 901 00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, came over to Tampa Bay one year is 902 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator. Baker Mayfield had his best season, Like 903 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 2: he does, have a track record of success, and it's 904 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 2: a great story. He's the guy everybody is rooting for, 905 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 2: you know, if you're a meathead out there. He was 906 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 2: a former strength and conditioning coach at USC that's you know, 907 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 2: worked with Pete Carroll. That's how he ended up in Seattle. 908 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 2: Guy was selling cowboy boots, you know, just like he's 909 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 2: just a man of the people. Like everybody's rooting for 910 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 2: Dave Canalis. Here's the problem. It's David Temper, Okay. I mean, 911 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 2: if Frank Reich and Matt Ruhle weren't allowed to see 912 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 2: the end of their contracts, and in frank Reich's case, 913 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,320 Speaker 2: see the end of the first year of his contract, 914 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 2: I'm a little bit skeptical that we're gonna see Dave 915 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 2: Canalis here for the next several years in Carolina. And 916 00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 2: it's not his fault at all. And I love Bryce 917 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,439 Speaker 2: Young and I'm rooting for him because I think it's 918 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 2: way too early to just go ahead and say, well, 919 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 2: we're doing the comp game. 920 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: C J. 921 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,359 Speaker 2: Stroud was the pick and Bryce Young is dude, we 922 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 2: were doing that with Jared Goff and Carson Wentz early 923 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 2: on too, and I got news for you. The tables 924 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: have turned on that. So I don't want to hear 925 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 2: anything about that. Bryce's way too early and I'm not 926 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 2: playing that game. I'm rooting for Dave Canalis, love the 927 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: story that he's done a fantastic job. It's just the 928 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 2: organization and it's the owner. I mean, for God's sakes, 929 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,279 Speaker 2: you can't criticize the team on the road without him 930 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 2: throwing a Boddington's in somebody's face, you know what I mean. 931 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 2: And I say Boddington's because it's an English beer and 932 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 2: it was in Jacksonville and they're basically a London team 933 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 2: at this point, and so like, you know what I mean. 934 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 2: But the point is it's a problem. And so when 935 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 2: I see the terms of the contract come out and 936 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 2: it says, well, it's a six year deal, all right, Well, 937 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 2: Matt rules was a seven year deal and Frank Reis, 938 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 2: who knows, maybe it was like a thirty nine year deal. Like, 939 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 2: I just Tho's are some concerns, That's all I'm saying. 940 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 2: I just I have some concerns for two very different reasons. 941 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 2: When it comes to Jim Harbaugh and Dave Canalis. All Right, 942 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 2: I'm rooting for both to work out, but I'm just 943 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 2: a little bit concerned at the situations that we're into, 944 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 2: all right, just saying it's a problem.

They're like, hey, 995 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:40,360 Speaker 2: if you're there, can you get me a candle? And 996 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 2: he would always bring me back a candle from the 997 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 2: lodge at Tory Pines. So if you want your house 998 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 2: to smell like a Frasier fur, I recommend the candle 999 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:52,319 Speaker 2: from Tory Pines. And if you can't get out there, 1000 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 2: I don't blame you. It's probably expensive. So point is, 1001 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 2: you know, it's a fun tournament. It's a beautiful place, 1002 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 2: beautiful venue. So where there is some other stuf going 1003 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:05,200 Speaker 2: on along with the college basketball NBA and the other 1004 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 2: fun stuff as we get ready for conference championship Sunday 1005 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 2: in the National Football League. All right, So with that 1006 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 2: being said, the NFL and the world of football has 1007 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 2: had some stuff pop up this weekend. Right now, some 1008 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 2: people are going to be pretty critical of my guy, 1009 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 2: Kashan Boody, you know, the Patriots rookie wide receiver who 1010 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 2: got arrested because he was placing bets while he was 1011 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 2: at LSU. Because apparently, like if you make a couple 1012 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:36,239 Speaker 2: of fake accounts when you're underage any gamble, apparently that's 1013 00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:40,760 Speaker 2: a problem. And apparently when you place eighty nine hundred 1014 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 2: bets between April of twenty twenty two and May of 1015 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, so let's call it thirteen months. This 1016 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 2: guy made eighty nine hundred bets in a thirteen month span, 1017 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 2: and apparently when it's you know when at least seventeen 1018 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 2: of those are on college football games, and at least 1019 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,719 Speaker 2: six of those are on LSU games that you played in. 1020 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 2: I mean, apparently that's a problem. Apparently, you know, and 1021 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,720 Speaker 2: apparently you know when you win like over five hundred 1022 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 2: thousand dollars, but majority that money is being used to 1023 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 2: make additional wagers. Apparently that's an issue too. Now, I 1024 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 2: always thought that was called reinvesting. Okay, That's what I 1025 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 2: always thought. But maybe I've got a different understanding of 1026 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 2: the term. All right, So there, you know, Kayshawn Boody, 1027 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 2: there's been some criticism out there now he didn't exactly 1028 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 2: hide his user names for these other accounts. One of 1029 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 2: them I believe was Kashawn Booty seven. The other one 1030 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 2: was Kashawn Booty oh one. You know, not a lot 1031 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 2: of differential there between his actual name. You know, you 1032 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 2: would think he would come up with a better alias. 1033 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 2: Maybe he's like me, he's upset that we didn't come 1034 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,359 Speaker 2: up with Mike vis alias back in the day, which 1035 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 2: was Ron Mexico. That's always a good one, big fan 1036 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 2: of Ron Mexico. You know, Lane Kiffin went with Joey Freshwater. 1037 00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 2: You know, some of the great ones are taken. So 1038 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 2: maybe Kayshawn Booty He's like, well, listen, all the good 1039 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 2: ones are taking, So I'll just go with Kaishan Booty 1040 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 2: one as my you know, alias to go ahead and 1041 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 2: play some wagers. So the guy's playing like nine thousand 1042 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:14,399 Speaker 2: bets in a thirteen month span. Now does this mean 1043 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 2: he'll ever get to play football again? No? No, that's 1044 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 2: probably over. But you know what, I think we know 1045 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 2: what his passion is, all right, Like, I think you 1046 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 2: know what it's. You know, it's like a kid who 1047 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 2: fights a lot when he's when he's younger. You're like, God, 1048 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 2: what's his problem? He's always getting in fights? Well, what 1049 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 2: do you want to do about it? 1050 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1051 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 2: Put him in a boxinger, an MMA class, let him 1052 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 2: go to jiu jitsu. It'll cool him down a little bit, 1053 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,040 Speaker 2: all right. So I mean listen, if that's his passion, 1054 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,439 Speaker 2: that's his passion. So yeah, his NFL career is probably over. 1055 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 2: I get it. But you know what you mean to 1056 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,359 Speaker 2: tell me? That guy couldn't run a sportsbook. You talk 1057 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 2: about a true love for the game. So again a 1058 00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 2: lot of people are going to be critical of this stuff. 1059 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 2: I am not all right. I have been on the 1060 00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 2: gambling front for years here at FSR. All right, we 1061 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 2: have done I mean, whether it's live bet Live, bet 1062 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 2: Jesus who makes appearances here on Fox Sports Radio throughout 1063 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,560 Speaker 2: the years. Has he even got a Twitter account or 1064 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,880 Speaker 2: x whatever you want to call it, Knox Locks, Like, 1065 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 2: I am in full support. So I'm not going to 1066 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 2: sit here and throw stones from a glasshouse at Kashan Boody. Right, 1067 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. But I can understand why the 1068 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 2: NFL and college football and sports is a little bit 1069 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 2: over the top when it comes to this stuff. You know, 1070 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 2: like this story about the Super Bowl or the NFL. 1071 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,600 Speaker 2: They've put in a new gambling policy for players participating 1072 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. All right, it's pretty simple. If 1073 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 2: you are on either team in the Super Bowl this 1074 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:50,440 Speaker 2: year in Vegas, you can't bet on anything, right, So 1075 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 2: you I mean, we're talking like anything at all, not 1076 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 2: just the games. We're talking slot machines, We're talking anything. 1077 00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 2: You can't bet on any of it. Now, this makes 1078 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 2: me want the Lions to advance to the Super Bowl 1079 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 2: just because all the guys they had in their organization 1080 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,120 Speaker 2: who got pop for gambling. I mean, you imagine Jamison 1081 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 2: Williams walking through a sports book. If the Lions make 1082 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, Guy's gonna go into convulsions. It's like 1083 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 2: taking an alcoholic into a liquor store to buy pretzels. 1084 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 2: Why would you do that? Hey man? Did you run 1085 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 2: in there and get me like a you know, a 1086 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:31,480 Speaker 2: pack of now and Laters? Running to where you know 1087 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 2: a Spike's Liquor barn right there, right on the corner. 1088 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 2: You see it's right over there. Go to Spike's liquor 1089 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 2: bar and get me a pack of nowen Laters if 1090 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 2: you can, Uh, you think that's a good idea. Why 1091 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 2: wouldn't it be a good idea? I don't know. I'm 1092 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 2: an alcoholic. What do you think? It's like you don't 1093 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 2: want to see Jamison Williams at the Super Bowl? Have 1094 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: to walk through a casino and not pull a lever, like, 1095 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 2: not walk up and go heys, hey, give me give 1096 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 2: me a U fifty bucks on Magic Murphy to show 1097 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 2: in the next race at Pimlico. If you can't, thanks, 1098 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:11,960 Speaker 2: like you don't want to see that. I want to 1099 00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 2: see it now, whether or not that's gonna happen again. 1100 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 2: You got to stick around for Knox locks. But the 1101 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 2: point is, I get why the NFL is concerned. From 1102 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 2: an optic standpoint that, hey, we don't want players who 1103 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 2: are participating in the game to gamble while they're there 1104 00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 2: during the Super Bowl week. Okay, Like I get it, 1105 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 2: But there's a big difference between gambling on your own 1106 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 2: game and playing a penny slot machine. There just is 1107 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 2: all right, they're just I got news for you. If 1108 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:50,360 Speaker 2: I could gamble on my own show, I would. I 1109 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 2: would because I don't have that discipline. But there's a 1110 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 2: big difference between me gambling on something that's my own 1111 00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 2: and playing a slot machine. A big difference. Is anybody 1112 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 2: really gonna give a rip? Is anybody going to care 1113 01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 2: if one of these guys is playing a slot machine? 1114 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:17,840 Speaker 2: Like really like like, we're gonna throw it. We're gonna 1115 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 2: throw a fit. If you're cruising through a casino and 1116 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 2: you see Sam Darnold playing a double Dolphin slot machine 1117 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 2: or hitting the wheel of Fortune spin really like, that's 1118 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 2: gonna be an issue, Like, oh, Sam, that's a two 1119 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 2: games for what throwing twenty bucks in a slot machine 1120 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 2: and giving it a whirl for a couple of minutes. 1121 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:43,360 Speaker 2: Who cares, dude? The worst things have happened in the 1122 01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, you don't think so? Ask Eugene Robinson. Eugene 1123 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 2: Robinson went out to get a captain hook at the 1124 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 2: Super Bowl and ended up with an undercover cop. That's 1125 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 2: an issue. That's a problem a guy playing a slot 1126 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 2: machine or playing blackjacket one of the tables. Like, I mean, like, 1127 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:07,640 Speaker 2: who who's gonna give a rip? If Jake Moody is 1128 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:11,720 Speaker 2: playing three card poker at a casino somewhere during Super 1129 01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 2: Bowl week? Who cares? There's not enough cameras to see 1130 01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,560 Speaker 2: whether or not they venture into the sports book. We 1131 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 2: don't have enough cameras in Vegas. I got news for you. 1132 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 2: If you pick your nose and wipe it on a 1133 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 2: piece of furniture, they'll throw you out because somebody saw 1134 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 2: it from upstairs. You can't get away with anything. So 1135 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:42,360 Speaker 2: I can understand why they're concerned the optics and all that. 1136 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 2: This feels like a bit much. It's like COVID. You 1137 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 2: remember COVID Goodbye? You remember COVID, right, You remember like 1138 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 2: all the things you had to do to protect yourself 1139 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:58,000 Speaker 2: during COVID. You know, like some people were like wiping 1140 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 2: off their groceries with sanitizer wipes when they got home, 1141 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 2: you know, like you like you know because like that's 1142 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,320 Speaker 2: the concern. Hey, I don't want to get the coronavirus. 1143 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 2: So here, hand me some parrel. I'd like to shower 1144 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 2: the bag of funions I just bought. Well, I just 1145 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:19,920 Speaker 2: want to be safe, you know, Like you start to 1146 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 2: look back at some of the things that people were 1147 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 2: doing back then, and you understood it, but upon further review, 1148 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,360 Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, that's a bit much, you know, it's 1149 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 2: that's that's probably a bit much. I mean, maybe maybe 1150 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 2: we didn't need to do that. You know, like I 1151 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 2: can understand washing your hands a lot. Hey, even masking up, 1152 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:40,280 Speaker 2: I get all that, but like, I mean, really you're 1153 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 2: doing that. Like I just think the NFL is going 1154 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 2: to look back on this week and go, yeah, that 1155 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 2: was a bit much, you know, like maybe it's not 1156 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:53,200 Speaker 2: that big of a deal at all whatsoever. On any level, 1157 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 2: if some backup tight end for one of these teams 1158 01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 2: pulls a level on a slot machine when he's walking 1159 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 2: through a casino. In fact, I'll tell you what, find 1160 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 2: me somebody who doesn't want to do that. You like, 1161 01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 2: you're walking. I mean there's people who can't even get 1162 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 2: out of the airport in Vegas without gambling on the 1163 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:17,480 Speaker 2: slot machines. So again, I get it, I understand it, 1164 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,960 Speaker 2: but I think we're kind of overreacting a little bit 1165 01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 2: to this whole thing. You know, I know there's been 1166 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 2: some scandals, but this feels like a bit much. Jonas 1167 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,680 Speaker 2: Knox here Fox Sports Radio at the Jonas Knocks on X. 1168 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 2: That is, at the Jonas Knocks on X.

Ooh? 1179 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 2: Probably the under. I mean, you know they said if 1180 01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: somebody said, like the over under at two and a 1181 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 2: half good segments, I would definitely take the under. 1182 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 6: They say, bet what you know, right, you know that's 1183 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:08,040 Speaker 6: the best way to bet what you know? 1184 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,120 Speaker 2: Hey, Jonas, how many good takes you think you'll have 1185 01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 2: on the show today?

Caadarius Tony ruled out 1189 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,840 Speaker 6: with a hip injury and personal reasons. Wouldn't be surprised 1190 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,040 Speaker 6: if that's the last game he plays for the Kansas 1191 01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 6: City Chiefs. 1192 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 3: We've probably seen him last time. We'll wear a Chief uniform. 1193 01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 6: Lions will not activate new tight end zach Ertz, formerly 1194 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 6: of the Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles. He's currently on 1195 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 6: the practice squad.

Earlier today, 1248 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 3: you're shore. 1249 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 6: You were talking about how you know, everybody seems to 1250 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 6: be on the same accord. I'm not on the same 1251 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 6: the cord, Yeah I'm not. I think he could have 1252 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,120 Speaker 6: been a legend. He could have gone down as one 1253 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 6: of the best to ever coach in college football, especially 1254 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 6: with the changing landscape, the twelve team playoff, you can 1255 01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 6: go and lose to Ohio State still get a shot 1256 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 6: to play for the National Championship Game, especially when you 1257 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:20,240 Speaker 6: consider that Nick Saban, the true Titan of industry is 1258 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 6: you know, boogie boarding instead of recruiting, I feel like 1259 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,840 Speaker 6: you had an opportunity to go win two or three 1260 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,960 Speaker 6: more titles and really would have solidified yourself as one 1261 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 6: of the best. And you know what, when Nick Abram retired, 1262 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 6: you know what, nobody talked about the Miami Dolphins. Nobody cared. 1263 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 6: Nobody cared. And to go into a division with Sean Payton, 1264 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 6: who I think I have a high seems to be 1265 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:42,360 Speaker 6: I have the higher opinion on the most people. But 1266 01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:44,960 Speaker 6: I mean, seventeen years in the NFL and he's only 1267 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 6: had He's never lost more than seven games, that's including 1268 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:51,640 Speaker 6: taking Denver you know, eight and nine this year, and 1269 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 6: then Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes are going to continue 1270 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:57,280 Speaker 6: to have a you know day. I mean, this is 1271 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 6: the last time in six years the Antry Championship Game 1272 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 6: is not in Kansas City, So I think they're going 1273 01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,960 Speaker 6: to continue to win the division until otherwise noted. So 1274 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:08,200 Speaker 6: I think you're fighting for five to seven in the 1275 01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 6: AFC playoff seating, so I mean good luck. 1276 01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 2: And by the way, if you disagree with that, you 1277 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 2: can listen to Martin and VJ coming up later on. 1278 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:18,479 Speaker 6: Oh, I have a feeling that VJ will be disagreeing 1279 01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 6: with me vehemently. 1280 01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:22,479 Speaker 2: Always a good listen.

They didn't 1313 01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,280 Speaker 2: get it and understood, why did you do that? You 1314 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,400 Speaker 2: got the Bengals on the schedule, The Bills are there, 1315 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 2: like there's you know, the Chargers, like you know, Sean 1316 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 2: Payton and the Bronco like there's all these different options. 1317 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 2: Why would you put the Lions on to open up 1318 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,760 Speaker 2: the season. Well, because they knew that they were an 1319 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 2: ascending team, Like they've been a topic of company. They 1320 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 2: were on hard knocks not that long ago, and there 1321 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 2: has been a slow build. And my point on Dan 1322 01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 2: Campbell and the coach of the year, and you know 1323 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 2: why I felt like he wasn't going to get it 1324 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 2: is because there was an expectation that was set for 1325 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 2: the Lions. They were favored to win the division. Like 1326 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:37,679 Speaker 2: I understand the notion of all the history that comes 1327 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:39,960 Speaker 2: along with it. It's why it's such a big deal 1328 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: in Detroit. But like, if we're being truthful, I think 1329 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:46,520 Speaker 2: what they've done is is impressive because it was expected. 1330 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,559 Speaker 2: Like if this was unexpected or this just you know, 1331 01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:53,280 Speaker 2: nobody saw this coming and nobody saw this happening. Oh 1332 01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 2: I can understand, Like, man, what a feel good story. 1333 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:58,679 Speaker 2: Finally they're getting some respect. But no, like they've been 1334 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:03,040 Speaker 2: respected and if you haven't been paying attention to them, 1335 01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 2: then you're just being lazy. You're not actually watching the NFL. 1336 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 2: This has been a slow climb. They've been ascending. We've 1337 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 2: talked about it on this show for a couple of years. 1338 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:14,799 Speaker 2: Watch out for the Lions. Love what they're doing building 1339 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 2: the team, like like we've talked about it for like 1340 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:22,519 Speaker 2: I remember when the Bengals took Jamar Chase and Panay 1341 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 2: Sewell was sitting there for the Lions at the very 1342 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:26,960 Speaker 2: next pick. It was like I'm saying this at the time, 1343 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 2: like yeah, listen, Jamar Chase and Joe Burrow reunited. But man, 1344 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:34,639 Speaker 2: panay Sewell's a stud and look what's happened. Like TJ. 1345 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,200 Speaker 2: Howkinson they replaced him with Sam Laporta. I mean, no, 1346 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 2: you shouldn't take a running back in the first round. 1347 01:11:40,360 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 2: There are very few exceptions they did after they signed 1348 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:48,160 Speaker 2: David Montgomery, like Jared Goff quote unquote retread his career 1349 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,680 Speaker 2: as peaked. You know, the Rams didn't want him. They 1350 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 2: like we've talked about on this show a bunch Dan Campbelly, 1351 01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:55,720 Speaker 2: we've talked about it. 1352 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 1: So like the. 1353 01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:58,400 Speaker 2: Idea that you know, well, you know they're not really 1354 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 2: a well known team or a well known entity, Yes 1355 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,200 Speaker 2: they are. They are if you're not lazy, like if 1356 01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:09,280 Speaker 2: you've actually paid attention. They were featured, they've been in 1357 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:13,439 Speaker 2: big games, they've had the spotlight on hard Knocks. They've 1358 01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,400 Speaker 2: been talked about and been discussed. So this idea that like, oh, 1359 01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:18,680 Speaker 2: it's out of nowhere, No, it's out of nowhere if 1360 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 2: you weren't looking, if you weren't like actually taking the 1361 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 2: pulse of what's happening in the NFL, if you weren't 1362 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:28,200 Speaker 2: going to the same old you know, tired go tos 1363 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:30,800 Speaker 2: like the Cowboys and and all the other stuff that 1364 01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:33,840 Speaker 2: comes up, it's like, no, open your eyes. This team's 1365 01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:36,800 Speaker 2: been on the rise. They've been on the come up 1366 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:39,800 Speaker 2: for a couple of years, and they're where they're at, 1367 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 2: and they're where they were expected to be the best 1368 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:47,519 Speaker 2: team in the NFC North and a playoff team, and 1369 01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:49,280 Speaker 2: they won the two games they were favored in. And 1370 01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,680 Speaker 2: yes they're an underdogg against the Niners. But look, if 1371 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 2: you'd like to know whether or not I think that 1372 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,600 Speaker 2: that's warranted and they deserve to be the underdog, you 1373 01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:58,960 Speaker 2: can find out for yourself.

But right now it 1409 01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 2: is time to find out this. 1410 01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:56,719 Speaker 1: Locked it. Let's lotch it now and Knox Loucks. 1411 01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,000 Speaker 2: So you know, we got to go back in time 1412 01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:03,000 Speaker 2: before get to present day. Let's go back in time, 1413 01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 2: and let's go back in time by talking about the 1414 01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 2: Divisional round of the NFL playoffs. You know, the round 1415 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,800 Speaker 2: of football that everybody looks at and goes, this is 1416 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:15,920 Speaker 2: the best one. We got two games on Saturday, two 1417 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 2: games on Sunday, and it's the best and final eight 1418 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:22,479 Speaker 2: teams in the league. And so it started out with 1419 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:26,520 Speaker 2: us picking the Baltimore Ravens minus ten over the Houston Texans. 1420 01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:29,240 Speaker 2: And if you saw how that game turned out. You 1421 01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:33,400 Speaker 2: saw we were correcting that. And so then you go 1422 01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:37,120 Speaker 2: to the night game, the Classic between the forty nine 1423 01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 2: Ers and the Packers, where thirty seven million people are 1424 01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,040 Speaker 2: over thirty seven million people at that point, What does 1425 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:45,400 Speaker 2: it matter if there's an extra five hundred thousand or not, 1426 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:49,479 Speaker 2: But over thirty seven million people watched Saturday night on 1427 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:53,160 Speaker 2: Fox the forty nine Ers survive a scare against the 1428 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:57,040 Speaker 2: Green Bay Packers, and on this show we had the 1429 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:59,639 Speaker 2: Packers plus ten, so you know we won that one 1430 01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:03,120 Speaker 2: as well too. And so then you took us to Detroit, 1431 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,719 Speaker 2: where I love Baker Mayfield, loved everything about the Tampa 1432 01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 2: Bay Buccaneers, but I felt like the Detroit Lions winning 1433 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:14,519 Speaker 2: that first game and surviving against the LA Rams. Even 1434 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 2: though I bet Detroit and the wild card the Detroit 1435 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:21,320 Speaker 2: Lions a six point favorite at home last Sunday, that 1436 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,759 Speaker 2: was the side I wanted to be on. I determined 1437 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 2: that I felt that we went with it, and we 1438 01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:28,719 Speaker 2: hit on that as well too. So you're thinking to yourself, 1439 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:33,759 Speaker 2: there's no way you could go undefeated in the divisional 1440 01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 2: round of the NFL Playoffs, especially after we criticize you 1441 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:41,040 Speaker 2: and we mocked you, and we made fun of you, 1442 01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 2: and we belittled you for your picks during the regular season. 1443 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 2: There is no way you could go undefeated during the 1444 01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 2: division round of the playoffs. Well, if you recall correctly, 1445 01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 2: this time last week, we had the Chiefs plus three 1446 01:16:55,680 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 2: at the Bills, And if you recall correctly, last Sunday night, 1447 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:04,320 Speaker 2: to close up the divisional weekend, it was the Kansas 1448 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:08,200 Speaker 2: City Chiefs getting it done again at Buffalo and breaking 1449 01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:11,839 Speaker 2: the hearts of Bill's Mafia like they break those tables 1450 01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 2: before every single game. And so that, my friends, is 1451 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,639 Speaker 2: called a four to zero perfect weekend in the divisional round, 1452 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 2: which puts US at seven and three in the playoffs 1453 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:25,720 Speaker 2: thus far, which meets it's time to continue on. 1454 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:28,560 Speaker 1: With this Chief said Ravens. 1455 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:32,599 Speaker 2: Look, I'm gonna go against my rule I said last week, 1456 01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:37,639 Speaker 2: never bet against Patrick Mahomes getting points. Ever by rule 1457 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 2: by default, I can't help it. I'm going against him. 1458 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,720 Speaker 2: I like Baltimore here, and I actually think Baltimore wins comfortably. 1459 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 2: It would not surprise me to see Baltimore win by 1460 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:51,559 Speaker 2: double digits. Right now, they're a four point favorite. If 1461 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 2: you followed any of this betting trend or betting line. 1462 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,719 Speaker 2: Throughout the course of the week, it was sitting at three, 1463 01:17:57,200 --> 01:17:59,400 Speaker 2: it jumped up to three and a half, then it's 1464 01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 2: jumped up the we are currently sitting at four. On DraftKings. 1465 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 2: I think Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens have been 1466 01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:09,040 Speaker 2: the best, most consistent team in the league all year long. 1467 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:10,720 Speaker 2: I've taken the Ravens minus the. 1468 01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 1: Four Lions at forty nine ers. 1469 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 2: Love the Lions, absolutely love the Lions, just not this week. 1470 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna ride with my guy, Brock Purty and the 1471 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:24,280 Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers. I think they survived the 1472 01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 2: scare last week. I think the Lions are gonna be 1473 01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 2: competitive throughout, but I just see San Francisco pulling away late, 1474 01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:33,880 Speaker 2: the defense making enough plays and Rock Purty not making 1475 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 2: enough mistakes to try and keep Detroit in the game. 1476 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:40,400 Speaker 2: I like the Niners minus the seven.
