1 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:11,639 Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntire. What is up 2 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: straight fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntire, Straight Fire for Tuesday, 3 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: October seventeenth. I'm gonna try to remain calm, ladies and gentlemen. 4 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: There's gonna be a tough one. The Chargers, in what 5 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: was an oddly thrilling game, they blow it at home 6 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: against the Dallas Cowboys. Dak Prescott was phenomenal. I told 7 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 1: Rob before the pot, I thought this was the best 8 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: game of Dak's career. I look up and down Dak's career. 9 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, in terms of a spot, Dallas coming off 10 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: a bad loss to the Niners. They got their pants 11 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: pulled down on national television. They got humiliated. He bounces 12 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: back again national television on the road at so far. 13 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: I mean he didn't not He wasn't really trailing other 14 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: than seven nothing, and Dak made all the throw he 15 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: was nails on third down. Dak Prescott won this game 16 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: for Dallas, no doubt about it. You can't argue that. 17 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: I think where this gets interesting, Rob is the Chargers 18 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: justin Herbert, Listen, I'm not gonna be go overboard and 19 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: say he played like ass he did not have his 20 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: best game. Justin Herbert was not on guys played with 21 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: a fractured finger on his non throwing hand. I don't 22 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: know how many snaps he took from under center, but 23 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: it was certainly fewer than five if he took any 24 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: at all, and he just did not seem particularly sharp. 25 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: He missed Keenan Allen deep on the left side once 26 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: and then I think he missed him on the left 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: side in the first half as well. Just not particularly 28 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: not his greatest game. I'm not going to defend him 29 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: and say, well, listen Keenan Allen, Well, Keenan Allen's got 30 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: to make those plays. No, the passes were a little 31 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: bit off, and Austin Eckler was back, and Austin Eckler 32 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: was a large non factor. I think there were two 33 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: drops by the Chargers, but again, you can't put this 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: on those drops. Ultimately, the Chargers offensive line was a 35 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: massive grave miscalculation by me Lindsley one of the top 36 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: centers in the game, and the downgrade to clap whoever 37 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: the hell that guy is, I mean, it was enormous. 38 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: The defensive line in the middle just bullied this kid, 39 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: clapped badly, and then Michael Parsons did what he did 40 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: in a big spot, did what Joey Bosa couldn't Joey 41 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: Bosa on a milk carton Monday night. Nothing, no quarterback hits, 42 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: he didn't do a damn thing. And Michael Parsons gets 43 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: a massive sack. Honestly, he hit justin Herbert so hard. 44 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: I thought Herbert was gonna maybe like not get the 45 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: playoff in time, got sacked on second and then he 46 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: struggles to get the playoff in time, and I'm like, 47 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: what the heck? Like Herbert looked rattled like joe Michael 48 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: Parsons drilled him. It was a phenomenal hit and Parsons 49 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: three quarterback hits. He was in the backfield all night. 50 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: Chargers offensive line just an embarrassment, a straight up embarrassment. 51 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: Herbert did have time to throw, he wasn't super accurate 52 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: and this one hurts folks two and three in the 53 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: contest for me. Had the Chargers felt good about it, 54 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure some of you took the plus three with 55 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: the juice and you got to push the two and 56 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: a halfs. They're losers. You could just feel it and Rob, 57 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: this is what really pisses me. Off about this game. 58 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: Chargers come out with their hair on fire, get a 59 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: three and out, and you're like, let's go. We got this, 60 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: stadium's juiced up. Chargers get the ball, good punt return, 61 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: they go down, score quickly. Chargers on the board, looking good, 62 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: feeling good. And then McCarthy comes back and is like, oh, 63 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna run the ball on first out anymore. 64 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: And it's just guys wide open on crossing patterns, seemingly 65 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: the same stuff every time Cede lamb over the middle, 66 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: gallop gallop wasn't great, cooks guys wide open over the middle, 67 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: and it's like, oh geez, and Dallas scores instantly, and 68 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: at that moment, I'm like, all right, Chargers, time for 69 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: a response, Kelly Moore, let's go. They did jack squat 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: for largely the next two quarters, and as soon as 71 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: they couldn't really respond and it was seven to seven forever, 72 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: I was like, Chargers are screwed. Dan Moore, sorry, Dan 73 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: Quinn out foxing Kellen Moore. And this is one of 74 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: those moments where Kellen Moore could have really shown his 75 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: franchise value. He could have shown guys if Brandon Sdalely 76 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: ain't your guy. I'm your guy, and I saw nothing 77 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: from Kellen Moore other than the fourth and one touchdown, 78 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: which was a great play call to Everett wide opened. 79 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: I did not think Kellen Moore had a great day. 80 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: I did not think Justin Herbert had a great day. 81 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: Joey bo said, totally invisible Derwin James two ASA nine 82 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: fifteen yard penalties. As you can tell, I'm a little 83 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: worked up. I'm just disappointed in the Chargers. As I 84 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: said on yesterday's Pod, thirteen of sixteen teams in the AFC, 85 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: where five hundred are better now that numbers twelve and 86 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers are not one of them. I took a 87 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: quick glance at their schedule. They got the Chiefs this week. 88 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: Not great Chargers gonna fall to two and four. Not 89 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: great for the Chargers, great for speculators, podcasters, guys who write, 90 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: guys who are on social media. Who's the next Chargers 91 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: head coach? Jim Harbaugh? Don't sign anything, Michigan, just wait, 92 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: just hold out. Could have a job opening out here 93 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: in la Ben Johnson of the Detroit Lions, aren't you 94 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: glad you didn't take a job last offseason? Some of 95 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: those crap jobs that were out there Carolina, Indy, those 96 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: jobs weren't good. This is a good job. Now the 97 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: roster's gonna have to be reshaped because of the Herbert contract, 98 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: and Rob, you're a Raiders fan, so I don't expect 99 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: a ton of you know, understanding here, but I'm just 100 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: gonna I'm I'm gonna mention something. I had to look 101 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: this individual up. So this guy's considered one of the 102 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: best quarterbacks in the history of football. And in his 103 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: rookie year he went three and thirteen. He led the 104 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: league in interceptions. His second year turned it around thirteen 105 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: and three, but lost in the playoffs. Then went ten 106 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: and six, lost in the playoffs fifty three percent completions. 107 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: In year four. Now for this historically great quarterback whose 108 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: name I'll give you shortly, they went six to ten 109 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: in the regular season. You're five, ten and six. Lost 110 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: his first playoff game. Peyton Manning did not win a 111 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: playoff game in his first five years in the league. Like, 112 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: can we settle down with Justin Herbert as a bum? 113 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: Can we settle down with Justin Herbert is Kirk Cousins 114 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: two point zero? Justin Herbert is Philip Rivers reducts. Can 115 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: we just settle down? The talent is very obvious. He's 116 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: on his third offensive coordinator. I think Anthony Lynn was first. Like, 117 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: eventually he's gonna find a head coach. He's gonna settle in. 118 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: The talent is there. Herbert did not have a great game. 119 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: It happened. Jalen Hurts threw three picks against a Jets Sunday. 120 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: Is he a bum? Now? I saw guys going after 121 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts like one game? Now, are we really doing this? 122 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: He's got an entire body of work last year, Hurts 123 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: has one bad game? Whoa, we crowned him too early? 124 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: What the take machine is a little out of control? Okay, 125 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is a shit stinker in the season over 126 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: against the Jets. Wow, Josh Allen's trash. Really, come on, guys, like, 127 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: are we doing this? I know justin Herbert does not 128 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: accomplished what Hurts has or Alan has. He's gonna get there. 129 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fine. He didn't have a great game. 130 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: The Chargers massively let me down. I'm not that mad 131 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: because this is what they do. Rob your Raiders fan, 132 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: this is what the Chargers do. They historically let their 133 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: fans and gamblers down. Football is back.

I'm not going to 150 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: dump on Justin Herbert, you know. I mean the only 151 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 2: thing that I've ever said, and I still stand by this, 152 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: that's negative about Justin Herbert is that for all of 153 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: his talent, his ability, which is as you pointed out immense. 154 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: I mean, just in terms of physical tools, he's probably 155 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: the best quarterback in football, just prototype, this is what 156 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: you want. Tall, athletic, big arm, accurate. You know, he 157 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: has everything. But given all of his gifts, why doesn't 158 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 2: he win more? And now after Monday night, what do 159 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: you know? He's twenty seven and twenty seven in his 160 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 2: career as a starter. He's a five hundred quarterback. He 161 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 2: is the definition of mediocre. Now that's just the winning 162 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: portion right now. I think, obviously, I think he's a 163 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 2: great talent. He's elite in that regard. I just would 164 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,479 Speaker 2: expect a guy with his ability and his statistics specifically 165 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 2: would be able to win more. That's all. But I 166 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 2: think your larger point is, what's the bigger deal here 167 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: is that the Chargers historically have always been where the 168 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: parts were greater than the sum. Usually it's the reverse, right. 169 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 2: You know a teams that's real plucky. They're maybe not 170 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: as talented, but they play hard and they're well coached, 171 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 2: and that's why they say the sum is greater than 172 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: the parts. The Chargers are the exact opposite of that. Right, 173 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 2: you have Pro Bowlers and all pros all over that roster, 174 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,719 Speaker 2: Herbert Eckler, Slater, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Hurts. I'm not 175 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 2: going to count him. Their center I believe is Hurts. 176 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 2: I'm gonna count him as well, mac Bosa, Derwin James. 177 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: I mean everywhere they're loaded, and for whatever reason, they 178 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: find themselves in these nip and tuck games, down by three, 179 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: up by three, two minutes to go, can the defense 180 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: ho and the offense make a play? And more often 181 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 2: than not they lose those games. I saw a stat 182 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: last night that in the last two seasons, no team 183 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: has played more three point games than the Chargers. Okay, 184 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 2: most losses by three points or less last two seasons 185 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: the Chargers six, one less than the Denver Broncos, who 186 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: have been a dumpster fire, and one more than my Raiders, 187 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 2: who last season I think set the record for most 188 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 2: times losing by three points or less. And in any 189 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: NFL season, like this is who they are, this is 190 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: what they're always going to be. And the reason why 191 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 2: is like we saw last night, and this is kind 192 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: of true for both cases, but specifically for the Chargers. 193 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 2: How do you end up on a primetime game coming 194 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 2: off a buy and you have nine penalties for seventy 195 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: nine yards if you're the Chargers, and a lot of 196 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: them were like at the most inopportune time and a 197 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 2: crucial third down, you have third inches and you get 198 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 2: a holding third and eleven. Suddenly you know what are 199 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: you gonna do? And you just got to take it. 200 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 2: You have a false star penalty. The offensive line, I 201 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 2: believe was flagged three different times for holding last night. 202 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: Like you're not gonna win football games like this, And 203 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 2: it's why I'm never gonna take them seriously as any 204 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 2: kind of contender for a Super Bowl, especially in the AFC, 205 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: because this is who they are, and this is what 206 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 2: they do year in and year out. 207 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: On the game winning drive for Dak third and eighteen 208 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: penalty illegal contact in the secondary, third and six, Dak 209 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: to Cede Lamb for eighteen yards. Third and nine, Dak 210 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: to Brandon Cook for twenty one yards. Like they just 211 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: they kept converting easily on that game winning drive. So 212 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: then you go to the touchdown drive to put him 213 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: up seventeen to ten, third and eleven, Dak to Tony 214 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: Pollard for sixty and that's that play right there is 215 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: what you usually see from Herbert Dak looked like he 216 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: was wrapped up and sacked, spins out of it, finds 217 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: Pollard who breaks a tackle and is gone for sixty yards, 218 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: and then you know the awesome play that Dak made 219 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: to Brandon Cooks on the touchdown. Dak made the place 220 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: justin Herbert didn't. It's really as simple as that. If Rob, 221 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: if you want to play the blame game for the Chargers, 222 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: then we should. It's fun. It's a fun game. I 223 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: don't know if you go offensive line or just the 224 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,079 Speaker 1: defense and their inability to get stops. We're not gonna 225 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: be We're not allowing referees to be blamed here. Sorry, 226 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: not gonna let that happen. The refs did suck, but 227 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: they were sucky both ways. So I think Kellen Moore 228 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: gets in the discussion, and Herbert's obviously in there. But 229 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: if you're assessing blame just it's a combo for me 230 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: of the offensive line and Kellen Moore and the inability 231 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: to adjust when you're getting your Your offensive line caved 232 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: in literally on every drop back. And I know Herbert 233 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 1: was only sacked once. I get that, but the pressure 234 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: is forcing him to get rid of the ball early 235 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: and a lot of misses. Rob, you played high school football. 236 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: I did not. I never I never played or andized 237 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: football in my life other than just dominating to your 238 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: two hand touch in my neighborhood and street football. You know, 239 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: obviously I'm legendary recess football all that stuff. But like, 240 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: if you're getting your teeth kicked in at halftime, doesn't 241 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: the coach say, we can't block these mfs. Let's bring 242 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: in a tight end. Let's maybe go two back sets 243 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: and one of the backs is spot. We've got to 244 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: do something to adjust because our center's getting trucked and 245 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: Pipkins can't hold his own. Like I mean every time, Rob, 246 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: when Herbert' dropping back, I just seeing Michael Parsons bending 247 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: off the edge and is shifting the pocket and Herbert 248 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: has to move Like that's just unsustainable And for Dak 249 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: like I didn't see Bosa doing the same thing, Like 250 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know Michael Parsons is going to 251 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 1: reinvigorate his defensive Player of the Year candidacy. Like there's 252 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: a lot of guys in the mix, TJ. Watt, Miles Garrett, 253 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is in the mix, Like biggest moment of 254 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: the game, he thinks a huge sack on second and 255 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: one after that bullshit spot of the Keenan Allen catch 256 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: on second and twel twenty four or whatever it was. 257 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: I'm just so pissed on rambling rub Sorry, go ahead. 258 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I know you had money in this game, 259 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: So anytime something like this happened, you can usually tell 260 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 2: when Jason has money on a game. And thank you 261 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: for pointing out my stellar high school career. Peak was 262 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: my team went at two and eight as a senior. 263 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: So yeah, so we weren't good at all, but thank 264 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 2: you for pointing. 265 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: Were you the green dot on defense calling the player? 266 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: I was? 267 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: I was, I mean the defense giving up forty five 268 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 2: points a game, but hey, someone had to get the 269 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: trusted you. They trusted me to get the calls in. Look, 270 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: your point about the offensive line, I think is astute 271 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 2: because if I were to play the blame game and 272 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: I had to blame anyone on the Chargers to be 273 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: the offensive line. To your point, they only had one sack. 274 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: But according to the NFL research, the Cowboys pressured Justin 275 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: Herbert on forty seven and a half percent of his dropbacks, 276 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: which is his highest of the season. And to your point, 277 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 2: to your point, the thing about the Chargers that they're 278 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 2: they're like a finesse team, right, they're tight ends, par 279 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 2: him and Everett. Neither one one of them is known 280 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: for blocking, right, like Barnham, just the jumble wide receiver. Everett. 281 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 2: You know, that's part of the reason why he hasn't 282 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: be able to stick in one place for too long 283 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: because he doesn't block. He's a tight end, doesn't block. 284 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: And Austin Eckler, for all his ability, he's coming off 285 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: the injury. He's undersized. You can't expect him to pick up. 286 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 2: You know, Michaeh Parson is coming off the edge. And 287 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 2: I think as much as it is fun to talk 288 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: about the losing locker room and what's going on with 289 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: the Chargers, I think we got to come full circle. 290 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 2: Tons of credit to the Dallas Cowboys because, unlike the Chargers, 291 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 2: their stars played like stars. Last night. You brought up 292 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott. He outduels Justin Herbert, right, Tony Pollard, you 293 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: mentioned that big sixty yard catch and run. Ultimately, I 294 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 2: thought it was the biggest play of the game because 295 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: neither him get anything going and then he breaks one 296 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 2: off of a broken play seeding. Lamb was money in 297 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: the first half finish with over one hundred yards and 298 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: Micah Parsons seals the deal a lah Max Crosby on 299 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: Sunday night. I wish I was there to talk about 300 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: that one yesterday, but I wasn't. So there. Primary guys 301 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 2: came through when they needed them to. On the flip side, 302 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert Fourth, excuse me. On the last drive of 303 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 2: the game, Scrambles could have got the first down he 304 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 2: slides short right. Keenan Allen did the same thing, ran 305 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 2: out of browns when he could probably could have got 306 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: a first down in that last drive. Austin Eckler was 307 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: obviously a shell of himself. I don't know how much 308 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 2: of it was the injury, but he didn't look great 309 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 2: at all period running the ball, blitz, pick up, pass protection, nothing, 310 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: He didn't do anything great. Keenan Allen was mostly good 311 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: than that last play, and mac Bosa and Derwin James 312 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: were like invisible. Derwin James, to your point, had a 313 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: couple of just brutal penalties that helped extend drives for 314 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys. And if you're not getting the kind 315 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: of coaching that you would need to win in a game. 316 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 2: Like you mentioned, you weren't impression with Callum Moore, then 317 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 2: that's up to your stars to overcome that kind of stuff. 318 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 2: And Mike McCarthy, I thought, coached a pretty board game 319 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: too as well. They had eleven penalties themselves. They didn't 320 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: They were doing a lot of bad, but their stars 321 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,959 Speaker 2: came up big when they needed him to. The Chargers 322 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 2: guys did not. 323 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: I was just looking at the Cowboys' schedule. It's like 324 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: you make it sound and I don't want to put 325 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: words in your mouth like you think this was a 326 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: big win. Obviously for Dallas it matters, but like, does 327 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: this change your trajectory of them? They go into the 328 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: bye week, then they come out at home against the Rams, 329 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: then they have Philly, Giants, Carolina, Washington. There's a chance 330 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: to get hot here. The schedule is kind of easy 331 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: until November December, where they have Seattle, Philly, Buffalo, Miami 332 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: to close it out. Miami and Buffalo are gonna be 333 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: in the playoff, makes Philly will be fighting for a 334 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: top seed. I think Seattle's a little undervalued, so like 335 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: Dallas needed this, Honestly, I was looking at their prices 336 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: to miss the playoffs before this Chargers game, charges of 337 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: course had to get the deal done. They did not, 338 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: But like, I didn't see anything from this game from 339 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: Dallas to think like, Okay, I think they're definitely better 340 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: than like the Detroit Lions. I just I didn't see that. 341 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, no, I mean even though I picked them 342 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 2: to win the division before the season started, it had 343 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: more to do with the Philadelphia Eagles than anything with 344 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys. I expected that the Eagles were enough 345 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: to a slow start because they got the new coordinators 346 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 2: offense and defense. That ultimately didn't happen. So no, I 347 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: don't take them seriously at all. But to your point, 348 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 2: looking ahead at the schedule, if they don't win for 349 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 2: their next five, then there's a problem in Dallas. Because 350 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 2: you mentioned they come off of buy home to the Rams. 351 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 2: At the Eagles, I would probably chuck it up as 352 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 2: a loss. But then it's home Giants at Carolina home Commanders, 353 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: and then even after that home Seahawks, Like those are 354 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: games that they should win given the talent on that roster. 355 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: It's up to them though, whether or not they're going 356 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 2: to show up, because that's one issue that you have 357 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 2: with the Dallas Cowboys is unless they're playing the bottom 358 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: feeder teams, it's hit or miss whether or not you're 359 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: gonna get their a game. 360 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: The NFL season is going strong, and DraftKings Sportsbook is 361 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: hooking new customers up with an offer that's even stronger. 362 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: Bet five bucks on any game this week to score 363 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: two hundred dollars instantly in bonus betts, and DraftKings isn't 364 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: stopping there.

Remember my alternative Super Bowl 391 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: picks Chargers were my alternate super Bowl. I don't even 392 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: know if they're gonna make it Kansas City this week. 393 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to lick their wounds and ooh, they 394 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: have to go to KC for what will be the 395 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: best four PM game in what looks like a crappy slate. 396 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: Then they have the Bears at home. I will be 397 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: at that game with a buddy Sunday Night Football. Then 398 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: they travel to the Jets. Maybe that's that Jets defense 399 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: can rattle Herbert. So let's say you lose to year 400 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,959 Speaker 1: next three. I don't know, does Staley make it to Thanksgiving? 401 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: I still see Detroit Baltimore. I don't know, man, this 402 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,719 Speaker 1: is just an uninspiring defeat. And remember they paid Herbert 403 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: like you gotta make like Exeller's gonna be gone. Mike Williams, 404 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: who's out for the year, is gonna be gone. I 405 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: would assume Khalil Mack is gone. They're gonna keep Bosa, 406 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: Derwin James, listen, man, I know Derwin James is immensely talented. 407 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah loves him, as hyped the guy for years 408 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: and he's been an awesome athlete. Safety just doesn't matter, 409 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: and this guy makes stupid penalties. Did you say, like 410 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: a clear headshot to the tight end and there was 411 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: another fifteen yard penalty? I think it was on he 412 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: hit Dak. I don't know, man, I mean I know 413 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: there's a lot of Derwin James jerseys when you go 414 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: to a Chargers game, Like, I'm not seeing it. He's 415 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: not making those. He's like he's better than Jamal Adams. 416 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: But that's not saying much. All of a sudden, you 417 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: just look at the Chargers and you're like, man, that 418 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: super Bowl window when you got the quarterback on the 419 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: rookie deal is tiny. Right, we're gonna see Anthony Richardson's Colts. 420 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 1: By the way, Richardson looks like he's out for the year, 421 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna see them spend rob like whatever good wide 422 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: receiver gets cut by their team because of a salary 423 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: cap situation. The Colts are gonna be all in. And 424 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: then you got Pittman who's pretty good, Jonathan Taylor, Zach Moss, 425 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: and then you get like, you know, free agent or 426 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: expensive wide receiver that's better than DeAndre Hopkins or whatever. 427 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 1: T Higgins. T Higgins. There you go. You could do 428 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: that because you got the quarterback on the rookie deal. 429 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: Then you get the defense in place, and the Colts 430 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: have a playoff team. Bryce Young's team probably gonna spend lavishly. 431 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: They're gonna go get somebody who's the other team with 432 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback this year? It's Houston CJ. Stroud. They're 433 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: gonna go buy some people, like this is what you do. 434 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: Like the Chargers did that and they have no playoff wins, 435 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: and it's a little sad. I just heard that big 436 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: side from Rob. It's like, yeah, listen, Bill's did that. Yeah. 437 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 1: And their windows closing, man, their window is tiny. I 438 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 1: want I unheard last week I said I think Stefan 439 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: Diggs will not be on the Buffalo roster next year 440 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: because the Allen contract kicks in and he's taken up 441 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: like a shit ton of the cap and his cap 442 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: hits like forty seven million from like eighteen million. The 443 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: numbers might be off. I don't have them right in 444 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: front of me, but they're massive. And it's like, well, 445 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: we got a cup from somewhere. And the offensive line 446 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: already stinks, and it's like, well, receivers are kind of fungiable. 447 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: You could just plug and chug. The defense is probably 448 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: gonna lose some dudes. The defense is getting old, like 449 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: this is what happens when you pay the quarterback. And 450 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: I feel like the Chargers window man, Like I don't 451 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: know and Rob the other thought I had on quarterbacks 452 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: not related to Sanfran, I'm sorry, not related to the Chargers. 453 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: Let's say we have a San Fran Detroit NFC title game. Okay, 454 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: you will have Jared Goff, who's like middle of the 455 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: pack salary for quarterbacks, and Brock Perdy, who is seventh 456 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: round pick making like eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars, 457 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: and he's got like a roommate in the Bay Area. 458 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: And it's not a girl, it's like a guy. You know, 459 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: he's got like a mail roommate. I guess it's a teammate. 460 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, friend, buddy, whatever. But he's not making 461 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: enough money to like live on his own in the 462 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: Bay Area. Do you think we will start to look 463 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: at quarterback salaries differently if that's the NFC championship game, 464 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: because you know, Dak's looking for a contract and tonight 465 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: was a great performance, regular season game. Whatever. I just 466 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: wonder if more teams are gonna say, listen, the bar 467 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: to be a fifty million dollar guy is gonna be 468 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: higher than what Dak had hit. It's I'm sorry, Kirk Cousins, 469 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: We're not giving you fifty mil. It's like Burrow Alan 470 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: mahomes that ilk and then there's not gonna really be 471 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: a middle class Cusejared Goff I think is making like 472 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: twenty five or thirty mil. I'm like, I would take 473 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 1: him over Daniel Jones in a heartbeat, you know. And 474 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: it's like, I just wonder, have we hit the ceiling 475 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: rob on these quarterback contracts, because it's gonna be tough. 476 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: We're gonna see the Chargers struggle next year to you know, 477 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: have as sick of a roster when you're paying your 478 00:24:59,320 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: quarterback a ton of. 479 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 2: Mo I mean, I hope that happened. I mean correction, 480 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 2: I don't hope that happens, because, like I said before, 481 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 2: I hope all these guys get paid. I think in 482 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: the NFL, i'd love to see get fully guaranteed contracts. 483 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 2: The NFL salary cap is a myth. I've told you 484 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: that I don't want to go down that road again. 485 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 2: But to your point, I also do believe that you 486 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 2: should be paying the player, not the position. So Daniel 487 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 2: Jones the player is not a good NFL quarterback. He's 488 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 2: just point blank period, he's not. But because he plays 489 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 2: quarterback like the bare minimum now he's going to get 490 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 2: in any new deals like forty million plus, which I 491 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: think exactly what he got. Derek Carr is you know, 492 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: at one point was maybe a top ten quarterback, like 493 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: right on the fringe there, and then he kind of 494 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: tapered off. But because he's a quarterback, he's gonna get 495 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 2: upwards of forty million dollars a season like that's just 496 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 2: is what it is. And on the flip side, you 497 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: have running backs and wide receivers and offensive linemen even 498 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 2: that are all pro caliber players. The most recent comes 499 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 2: to mind is, you know, Jonathan Taylor and Saquon Barkley, 500 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 2: and those guys are like scratching and clawing and holding 501 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 2: out and doing all kinds of interviews to get thirteen million, 502 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 2: like it just because of the position that they played, 503 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: they're suddenly devalued. And because quarterbacks. People are convinced that 504 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 2: you can't win without a good quarterback. And while that 505 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 2: may be true, that doesn't mean you have to overpay 506 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 2: for a guy who's not any good. 507 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: Well, you know, we I can't believe this, you just said, 508 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: Derek Carr looked it up. This is staggering. I did 509 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: not really realize what his contract is so his cap 510 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: pit this year is seven million dollars, not a big deal. 511 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: It jumps to thirty five mil and then forty five mil. 512 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: Derek Carr is not much better, Rob, right now, I 513 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: don't think than Daniel Jones. Maybe it's the offensive coordinator, 514 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: but they look like ask whoa, Bro, Daniel Jones terrible? 515 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: He looks awful. Rob. I think I've lost betting on 516 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: the Saints like three times this season. They can't move 517 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 1: the ball. They cannot get in the zone, in the 518 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: red zone. I think they had four hundred yards against 519 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: the Texans. They looked awesome between the twenties, and then 520 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: they get to the red zone. It's like, oh what 521 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: do we do? Oh my god? They panic and make 522 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: stupid decisions. Rob. I mean, they couldn't move the ball 523 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: against the Titans at home in the opener. It's like, whoa, 524 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: that was a red That was a red flag? And 525 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: since that, Like Derek Carr, I mean, he's I guarantee 526 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: you he's on the waiver wire in your fantasy league. 527 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: That I mean again, that doesn't matter in greatness, but 528 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: like he's not even generating fantasy points. He doesn't have 529 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: he's not throwing the ball to Olave. Olavi's killing me. 530 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. This quarterback thing is weird because and 531 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: I'm trying to look at the time here. Okay, so 532 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: we didn't get into this after Thursday. But Russell Wilson 533 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: and the Broncos like it ain't working. You know. It's 534 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: like that relationship you get into with the hot girl 535 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: and you're in college, and maybe you're right out of 536 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: college and you introduce to the friends and they're like, bro, 537 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: this is not gonna work, but you're trying to make 538 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: it happen. Is happening. It's just not It's not gonna 539 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: work long term. It seems like if the Broncos have 540 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: a choice, they would rather just cut Russell Wilson and 541 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: absorb the dead cap hit suck ass next year, which 542 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: they would get, so they'll be they'll stink this year. 543 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: We think they're gonna wait one four or five games 544 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: rob six maybe sounds okay, so they'll be picking in 545 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,239 Speaker 1: like the top seven, you know, great case scenario, they 546 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: get Michael Pennock's best case scenario, Drake Bay or whatever, 547 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: and then you outright just cut Russell Wilson, absorb the 548 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: dead cap hit right, like the Falcons did when they 549 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: got rid of Matt Ryan. There was another one I 550 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: looked up you you might have even mentioned it. I 551 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: think Matt Ryan was forty million. It was like a 552 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: one year. 553 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah that was the highest one. 554 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, that really hurts. One year of pain, short term pain, 555 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: long term game. Right. It's like when you go back 556 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: to the gym after the holidays, you know, and then 557 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: you're like, I'm signing up for the gym. You get there, 558 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: you're all excited. In the first workout, You're like, oh, 559 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm so overweight, I'm so out of shape. Oh my gosh, 560 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: I'm dying. I can't go back. Short term pain, long 561 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: term it's going to be great. Just fight through it, 562 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: and it's going to be ugly to dump Russell Wilson. 563 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: Something magical happens when the third quarter ends and the 564 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: fourth quarter begins.

It's just not happening. I 581 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: don't want to say it's over for him. He'll probably 582 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: get paid on the cheap somewhere else, but I don't 583 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: think he's long for Denver. Would you agree? 584 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? And you know what's funny is I still wouldn't 585 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 2: put all of the blame on Russell Wilson. 586 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: Agree. 587 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: Up until this last week against Kansas City, his numbers 588 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 2: were actually better than Patrick Mahomes on the season, just 589 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: in terms of raw passing statistics, yards, touchdowns, interceptions, QB 590 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 2: rating whatever. He was right there with Mahomes. The difference 591 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 2: was that Mahomes wins and Russell Wilson doesn't. And what 592 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 2: you're seeing now in Denver is Sean Payton came in, 593 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 2: talked all kinds of trash in the offseason about the 594 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 2: previous regime and how poor of a coaching job they did, 595 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 2: and YadA, YadA, YadA, and he shows up and they're 596 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 2: even worse somehow, I don't get it. And his solution 597 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 2: then becomes, it's obviously like the personnel just doesn't match 598 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 2: what I'm trying to do, so not me. Yeah, let 599 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 2: me let me get rid of Randy Gregory for nothing. 600 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: Let me get rid of Frank Clark for nothing. Jerry 601 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 2: Judy's on the trade block, possibly for nothing. You know, 602 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 2: let me cut Russell Wilson probably down the road in 603 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 2: the season. And it's kind of his safety net, so 604 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 2: to speak, like he's working with this. You know, he 605 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: has a credit card that he's able to swipe and say, see, 606 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: look like I'm just gonna buy this on credit and 607 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: then kick the can down the road and I wait 608 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 2: till I get my guys in here. Let me get 609 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 2: let me figure out my situation. It's eerily similar, as 610 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 2: I referenced last week to what's going on with the 611 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 2: Raiders and Josh McDaniels. Josh McDaniel inherits a playoff team, 612 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 2: adds Davante Adams and they get worse. I don't know 613 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: how that's possible, but that's what he did. And that's 614 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: exactly what's going on right now with Denver. And because 615 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 2: Sean Payton got the big money, because you know, he 616 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 2: has a better reputation, I believe in football circles that 617 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 2: he is still some kind of offensive guru, even though 618 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 2: the numbers say that he's on with Mike McCarthy and 619 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 2: nobody used Mike McCarthy in that kind of light. But 620 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 2: because he has that good will, it's easy to blame 621 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson and pin all these failures on him, when 622 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: in actuality, I think Sean Payton deserves a bigger blame 623 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 2: than he does. But you're not gonna get it to 624 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: the coach after one season. 625 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: Oh remember, you were right. McDaniels blamed Carr ended up 626 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: making it inactive. I think for the last couple of 627 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: games it's his fault. They got rid of car. It 628 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: was ugly. I think Carr said he and his wife 629 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: like cried about it and moved on. And you know, 630 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: I listen, I'm not defending McDaniels here, but they are 631 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: three and three. Sure, they got lucky as hell to 632 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, beat the Broncos early. They were fortunate against 633 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: the Patriots. I don't remember who their other win was, 634 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: do you I don't even do you remember it? 635 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: I mean, does it matter when Jimmy g leads the 636 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 2: NFL and interceptions and he's played one less game than everybody, 637 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 2: So did you really upgrade our quarterback? 638 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: That's fair? He was basically like, just get car out 639 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: of here, listen, And sometimes you got to do that. 640 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: You got to pin the blame on someone else so 641 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: you could survive in advance and continue thriving. And McDaniels, listen, man, 642 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: I don't know they get nine and eight sneak into 643 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: a wild card? Is that? Is that crazy? By the way, 644 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: Devontae Adams, what's up with your boy? Sounds like he's 645 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: just wants out. 646 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard, you know, multiple sources tell me on 647 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 2: the side that Davante Adams has not been happy with 648 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 2: Josh McDaniels ever since he's got there. 649 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: I don't think he likes it. There's stuff he's staying 650 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: at the podium and like really doesn't like it. He's 651 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: just talking out of pocket, like okay, but McDaniels doesn't 652 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: seem to care. By the way, Jacobe Myers great pickup 653 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: is that McDaniels or the GM. 654 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 2: Uh probably both, because they're a package deal. The GM 655 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 2: and the head coach came at the same time for the. 656 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: Patriots, so interesting. 657 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 2: That's why McDaniels gets the pass because they're together, like 658 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 2: they're not going to acts one and out the other. 659 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: So I'll wrap up with this, rob So we talked 660 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: last week about this whole idea of teams that covered 661 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: versus team that did not, So I just wanted to 662 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: put a bow on it. So in Week six, there 663 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: were five of those matches matchup the week before did 664 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: not coververs did Washington, Atlanta. Washington was coming in with 665 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: the non cover, Atlanta was coming in with the cover 666 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: Washington one, Minnesota, Chicago, Minnesota, Houston, Saints Houston. And then 667 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: the two that didn't were Raiders who I had, oh sorry, 668 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: Patriots who I had against Raiders, and then Carolina Miami. 669 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: So three and two I've already looked this week, there 670 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: are five, actually, I guess yeah, we'll toss it. Well, 671 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: there'll be six. Since the Chargers did Saints Jacksonville Thursday. 672 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 1: I'll go ahead and tell you we don't know about 673 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, the uncertainty. Maybe go bet the Saints, not 674 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: that heavily, but I bet the Saints. Indie Brown's in 675 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: what might be? Gardner Minshew versus p J. Walker, Bears 676 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 1: Raiders in what will be? Who is the Bears backup? 677 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: What's do you know his name? 678 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 2: Nugent or something like that. That watched way too much 679 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 2: of that game. Yeah, I watched way too to that 680 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 2: game and to not catch his name. 681 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be Raiders backup either Hoyer or AOC 682 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: against whoever the undrafted rookie is for the Bears. That's 683 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: a shit show. And then Philly did not cover against Miami, 684 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: which did I think? I did bet Philly. And then 685 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: San fraan Minnesota on Monday, even not knowing Christian McCaffrey 686 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: or Deebo or Trent Williams, I bet San Francisco. I 687 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: just think Shanahan just schemes up some good stuff and 688 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: then you toss in Chargers Chiefs. There's some gross ones, Rob, 689 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: like are you back? I can't guard I cannot backguard 690 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 1: him into you again. I cannot do it. I don't 691 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: think I could back the Bears. Philly and sanfran are 692 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: two good teams that I don't mind backing. But this 693 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: week there's a lot of backup quarterbacks and I guess 694 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: we could take a deep breath. Maybe we'll do like 695 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: an NBA preview midweek, Rob, What does the NBA season start? 696 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: Is it Halloween? 697 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 2: And it starts a week from today, Tuesday, the twenty fourth. 698 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 1: All right, we'll have to get our act together.

That game which meant 703 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: nothing and the Lakers didn't play anyone. 704 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm totally locked in.

To be honest, I 712 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: was like, bro, what are you?
