WEBVTT - 01/08/21 - HOUR 1 - NCAAF, Sean Salisbury 0:00:01.480 --> 0:00:04.320 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:04.360 --> 0:00:08.400 Sports Radio. We made it to a Friday. I had 0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:10.920 the under welcome to the show, Dan and the Dane 0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:15.000 Stan Patrick's Show. It's a meat Friday, chicken pot pie. 0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:18.600 Fritzie wanted it my best friend, and I made sure 0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:20.560 that he got it. I'm excited it came through for me. 0:00:20.760 --> 0:00:24.200 But then I also have to come through with another pie, 0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.080 blueberry pie. Yeah, you have to take it to the 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:29.480 face later on to pay part of it if it 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.960 doesn't all fall on the floor, if it hits my face, yes, 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:35.600 yes you do. So. It's a chicken pot pie, but 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:38.320 a blueberry pie that Todd will take to the face, 0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:41.000 maybe both of him. He'll take to the face later on, 0:00:41.360 --> 0:00:43.440 paying off a bet because we had one of our 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:46.519 listeners who said Washington would make the playoffs, and Todd 0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:52.240 took the best. Peterson all right, we'll have a stat 0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:53.680 of the day. We got a play of the day. 0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.400 We'll come up with a pole question. Here are good buddy. 0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.600 Sean Salisbury will join us on loan from Houston. We'll 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:03.880 talk about Deshaun Watson. That story ramped up quickly yesterday 0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:07.040 final hour. I see something on Pro Football Talk Mike 0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.399 Florio talk about Deshaun Watson starting to hear some rumors, 0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.000 whispers that he wants out. Next thing, I know, the 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.640 whole afternoon was set for programming for all of these shows. 0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:20.240 I don't know how real it is, you know, Mike said, Hey, 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:22.680 I'm sort of hearing from people that maybe you don't 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:25.720 normally hear from to talk about Deshaun Watson. To me, 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:29.960 this feels like this is an agent driven story. You 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:33.200 might be upset. Are you really upset that you want out? 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:37.160 And what's the likelihood that Houston would trade arguably one 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.920 of the top five quarterbacks in the game. So we'll 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.480 talk to Sean Salisbury about that. The Vikings wide receiver 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:48.200 Adam Feeling he wants to be our postseason analyst here 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:50.840 on the show. We'll give him an audition here see 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:53.080 if he's ready to go for the big time here. 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:56.240 But he'll join us a little bit later on Age 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.000 seven seven, three d P Show Email address DP at 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.880 Dan Patrick do Twitter handle at dp's show. We had 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.120 a lot of things that we discussed yesterday. Thanks for 0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.640 your patients. As we tried to navigate that in a 0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:11.840 professional manner, I did mention something yesterday that I had 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:15.280 information on the national title game, but I held off 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.079 the day before sending that out, obviously with what was 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:22.040 going on in our nation's capital. And then brought up 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:25.080 some of that information that I found out yesterday. And 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.400 it has to do with is there going to be 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:30.600 a national title game? As of right now at nine 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:34.280 oh three Eastern, this game is still being played. But 0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:36.360 here's some things just to keep an eye on. It 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:40.359 may be nothing, but then it may be something. COVID 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:45.760 testing taking place today. What I was told yesterday, Ohio 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:50.800 State may have upwards of twenty positive tests and a 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.720 couple of their starters on the defensive line. Now, it 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.160 could get better, but it could get worse. I was 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:02.480 also told that Big Ten and Ohio State did reach 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:08.040 out to the SEC to try to postpone this. They 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.240 were told no. I was told that they reached out 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:16.320 to Alabama a little more receptive to that possibility. This 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.640 may not be anything. They may be playing the football game. 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:23.000 I'm just telling you what I found out. Okay, So 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:28.080 this was the possibility of Ohio State inching closer and 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:32.560 closer towards the availability limit. That's the big issue here. 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:40.200 I was also told this Alabama's basically saying, boo hoo, Hey, 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.200 we played a full schedule, we played a game against 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:47.280 Notre Dame. We've lost players were ready to play. You 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.560 guys should be ready to play. Now, that's what my 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:55.040 source set. Hey, we played, you guys haven't been playing. 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.920 We took care of our business. You take care of 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.840 your business now. Maybe there is no thing that happens 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:04.320 with this. Maybe we get as close to a level 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.560 playing field with the number of players available. Maybe there's 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:10.760 no more positive test here with Ohio State, but that 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:14.240 is what is going on right now. Also, I was 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:17.919 told that, you know, they lose two starters on the 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:20.880 defensive line, but it's not like they don't have thirteen 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.960 or fourteen other defensive players to play on the line. 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:27.720 So that's the information I got yesterday and last night. 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.520 That goes along with what we talked about yesterday on 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.400 the show. Yes, PAULI, I'm really curious who would make 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.640 the final decision if things went poorly for a house 0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.520 state today. Would it be to the two conferences? The 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:42.080 College Football Playoff Committee Mark Emert of the nca ESPN. 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:44.920 Is it a collaborative effort or is there one person 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.320 who says, like Roger Goodell would make a decision, that 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.440 is our person like that. I don't know if there 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:52.880 is when it comes to the National Title Game. The 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:56.480 Playoff Committee, we don't know who they are. As far 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:58.800 as you know, it's Bill Hancock, who is sort of 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.440 the a singular voice there that we usually see. But 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:07.120 you know they're they're advocating for a postponement, or they 0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:10.120 did advocate for a postponent I don't know if they 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:12.880 still are. I think they Ohio State and Big Ten 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.520 want to see what happens today with the COVID testing here. 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:19.000 But you get the rapid testing and you're going to 0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:21.240 get results, and then we're going to find out just 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:25.440 how fully assembled Ohio State will be. Plus Jalen Waddle 0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:28.120 is going to play from what I'm told, the Alabama 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.039 wide receiver will play in the Monday Night title Game. 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:33.640 I found out a couple other things college football wise, 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:37.679 Tennessee's being investigated, and this is not good for Jeremy Proot. 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.120 Now we discussed this in the spring where all of 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.680 a sudden we saw, wait, Tennessee got a four star 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:46.719 record on they got a five start, they got another 0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:49.320 four star right, I go, oh, you can't make it 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:54.520 this obvious. Can't make it this obvious. It's like Ole 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.880 Miss Ole Miss did this a couple of years ago, 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.920 Robert kim DJ remember they got those guys and tread well. 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:05.919 We went, oh, you gotta be careful too much, too 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.680 soon at a program that normally doesn't get these players. 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:14.239 So Jeremy Pruitt is probably will walk in a fine 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:15.880 line here if he's going to be able to hold 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.960 onto that job, from what I'm told, And I think 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.920 Philip Fulmer, the athletic director, is going to come under 0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:25.719 fire here as well. But let me see what else 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:31.280 do I have here at a busy day yesterday. Let's see. 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:37.080 So it's it's for they're investigating for cause at Tennessee, 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:41.040 which means show cause, which means they can fire Jeremy Pruitt. 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.240 And I was also told that may cause Philip Fulmer 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.600 his job as well. I was also told, well, I'm 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:51.159 such I'm full of such great news. Yesterday I was 0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:54.800 also told Tennessee is on the clock being investigated. Next 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:59.599 in the on deck circle Georgia. I was told Georgia 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:03.080 got sloppy this year and recruiting and or maybe it's 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:06.440 been a couple of years, but you've got the NCAA 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.600 is looking at Georgia as well. Just something to keep 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.040 an eye on. That's everything that I'm telling you is 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.880 what I was told yesterday by my source, in fact, 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:18.240 two sources on the Ohio State stuff. But keep an 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:21.800 eye on it. Maybe there's nothing here, maybe there's nothing 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.560 at Tennessee, there's nothing at Georgia. I can only tell 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:27.600 you what is happening in real time behind the scenes 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:31.440 here and that Ohio State in the Big Ten did 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:38.160 reach out to the SEC and Alabama and right now, 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.920 as of right now, they're playing the national title game. 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:48.320 Monday's long way away, three and a half days, and 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.840 you have the COVID testing done this morning. Yes, Paul, 0:07:51.840 --> 0:07:54.880 it's fast at college football. I mean, I know NFL 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.280 has a lot of storylines, but man, college football. That's 0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.400 the fact that it's Friday and we don't know if 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:01.320 the National Title Game has been played. And you know, 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:03.560 this could happened with the Super Bowl when there's downtime 0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:06.160 and travel, and you know what happened in the World Series. 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.240 It's such a surreal years. You know, the World Series 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:11.120 had a guy pulled during the game. By the way, 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:13.080 this program is brought to you by built Bar. I 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:16.040 gotta come up with some good news today, like something fun. 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:19.120 We have to have something fun today. I'm sort of 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:21.920 the buzz kill starting off the morning. Built Bar simply 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:25.680 the best tasting protein protein bar around eighteen flavors. We 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:29.640 love them all, Mint, brownie, coconut, almond, pumpkin, chocolate chip cookie. 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:31.640 You'll believe me when you chaste to go to buildbar 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.360 dot com end or the promo code DP for twenty 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:38.080 percent off mclovin. What are you sitting on today? Wow, 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:41.320 I'm still a little rocked by all that Georgia. I 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.600 love Georgia. They're so good these days. Okay, we are 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.720 all debating on the side the games, the wildcard games. 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:50.160 We all made our predictions, but my question is, what 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.840 is the most likely blowout of the weekend. What's the 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:54.680 game where you don't have to watch because it's going 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:59.920 to be lopsided, Bills over Colts, Steelers over Browns, Saints 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:03.600 over Bears, or Bucks over the Washington football team. What's 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.199 the one that you think is most likely to be lopsided. 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:10.760 You don't have to make a prediction. I'm just saying, like, 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.880 which one can you see getting away? Yeah, but then 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:15.920 I have to make a prediction. No, no, no, you're 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.680 just you're not You're saying I'm not making my prediction. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:20.880 But I can see how this game could unplay where 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:23.480 once this team gets rolling, they're going to really go 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:26.199 at it. Well. It feels like Buffalo has an ability 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:30.120 as of late. It also feels like I don't know 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:33.400 what to expect out of the Bears going into New Orleans. 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.800 Washington could make it ugly to keep it close. I 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:44.360 just don't think they have enough offense for Tampa Bay. 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:46.520 I think if that game was in Tampa Bay, then 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:48.319 I would say that that would be the blowout there. 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:50.680 They're not even sure who their quarterback is going to be. 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.760 Imagine this, We're going into wild card weekend and you're 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.600 not sure what's happening with the Rams. Although I do 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.760 think Jared Golf is going to start against Seattle and 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.760 with Washington, I'm not quite sure if Alex Smith is 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.280 going to be able to play. Yeah, Paully. The Bears 0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:06.520 early in the season took the Saints to overtime, lost 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:08.920 by three, with Nick Foles at the helm and Drew 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:14.520 Brees was healthy new Yeah. Uh, let's see. The Athletic 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.680 is reporting Michigan and Jim Harball close to finalizing a 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:22.720 five year deal expected to be four million dollars bass salary. 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:26.079 With incentives, he could get back to the eight million 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:29.880 dollars buyout is expected to be low. Harball hasn't signed, 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:33.280 is expected too soon. Well, there you go, Ohio State. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:35.880 Things are looking up. There, there's some there's some good 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:38.360 news for you. I'll take a couple of negative COVID 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.000 test for that. If I'm a Buckeye fan, turn a while. 0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:43.439 But we got some good news for Ohio State fans 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:48.280 can find another d N eighteen five star guys backing 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:52.040 them up. A little bit of sun just burst through 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:55.720 those clouds. Yep, that's what I do. It brings I knew, 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:57.960 I knew we had some sunshine on the way. Do 0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:00.599 you like that? Jim Harball hears from some of the 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.600 stories that he volunteerily, took a pay cut and then 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:06.120 sent that's more in. He could still make his money, 0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:09.640 but it's much more incentive based than flat salary. I 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:12.320 think I respect that. Well. I don't know if he 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.280 had a choice, right well, he could not sign it. 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.760 And just go go away. Yeah, but then you make 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:21.000 zero dollars. Well, he could get another job. But if 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.960 you want to stay there, the competitor in you and 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:28.679 that's your alma mater. Um okay, I mean he should 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:35.120 take a pay cut, earn your incentives. Yeah, yees, McLean. 0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.160 I'm looking at the last couple of Michigan coaches. It 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:40.160 was rich Rod and Brady Hope. Are you sure Michigan 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:43.040 had its better options than Harbor at this point? Do they? 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:44.920 Is that a team that gets like the urban Myer 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.600 type said, well, what happens is you want to hire 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:51.360 a Michigan man. Yeah, that's where you get in trouble. 0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:55.320 You gotta have a Michigan man here. Brady Hope is 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:59.640 not a head coach. Rich Rod had his moment, and 0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:01.760 I think of offensively, they thought they were going to 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:03.880 be creative. They were gonna, you know, do some real 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:07.679 damage there and that didn't work out either. But when 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:11.040 you go we gotta get a Michigan man, we gotta Okay, 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:16.080 didn't they do that with? Uh? Remember when Bill Freeder? 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:20.080 Bill Freeder was taken the job. Was that right during 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.920 the tournament? And then he was gonna go to Arizona State, 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.040 and then Steve Fisher got the job. They're like, we 0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:28.439 won a Michigan Yeah, and they won the national title too, 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:31.839 But yeah, Michigan, you know with bo Shem Beckler, and 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.199 you gotta have a Michigan guy in there. Yes, yes, 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:36.200 but at least har I had a Super Bowl under 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.240 his belloty Compared to Brady Hoke, he's Fitz Lombardi. I mean, 0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:46.240 I'm sorry, not still one of our great great I 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.920 think I did. I ask about urban Meyer with that 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.719 quote from Freddy You asked him about how do you 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:56.319 feel about the Buckeyes hiring urban Meyer's mate Seton? Do 0:12:56.360 --> 0:13:02.400 you have the whole exchange? You know? I mean sorry, 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.880 I thought I had the question it, you know, you know, 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:13.640 like I see Brady sounds like a card toon, Like 0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:16.880 he's a character, you know, in a movie or something 0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:20.439 like Chris Farley could have played Brady Hope. Hey, Brady, 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.600 how do you feel about playing urban Meyer in Ohio State? 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.560 Remember the big story Brady Hoop was he was on 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.559 the sidelines with no headset. He's just hanging out watching 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:33.760 the game. What a gag? Can't they give you a headset? 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:35.679 But it's not hooked up to anything. Well, didn't you 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.640 ask him? They had like a big play and you 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:40.080 asked him, like, what was the call there on that? 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.920 He's like, well, you know what, I don't know. They 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:44.559 got around to being like, I don't know, I don't know, 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:46.200 I don't know. I don't call this place. Yeah, I 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.080 wasn't even wearing a headset. They don't clue me in 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.000 on anything. He's screaming, come on, guys and the sidelines. 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.040 That's all I think. That's all he does. God, that 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:54.560 was a good time. Come on, we're going out there 0:13:54.559 --> 0:14:02.120 and win. When when when not? Good? Halftime speech is awesome. 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:06.160 I don't know what's happened during the game. Yeah, Well 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.719 it is a wild Card weekend, putting the wild into 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:12.240 wild Card weekend, and you got playoff expansion. So first 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:15.800 year that we've had twelve teams playing opening weekend, and 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:19.440 we obviously have the COVID issues. Then you have the injuries, 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.800 significant ones. The Browns are playing without their head coach, 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:27.320 the Rams and Washington football team uncertainty at their quarterbacking position. 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:29.040 Then you got guys who were going to play but 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:31.720 won't be one hundred percent. Jamal Adams in Seattle, Michael 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:35.760 Thomas in New Orleans, Mike Evans with the Buccaneers. It 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:38.720 feels like every team is dealing with something. And the 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:41.320 other key difference this year is the lack of crowds. 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:43.480 Because you fight all year, you want to have that 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.840 home field advantage. You don't really have that home field advantage. 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:49.640 Good luck for all of you out there who love 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.680 to wager on these games, because you got to factor 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:55.400 in a lot of things. Normally you'd go, Seattle's playing 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:57.920 at home in the playoffs and they're only favored by 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:01.880 three and a half. Load up on Seattle, right, That 0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:06.640 just feels like it's last possession kind of game. It's 0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:10.680 just no matter. It's never a clean game with Seattle. 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:14.040 Where you go and they won twenty eight to twenty one, 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:19.720 it's always nineteen to nine or something, and they're losing, 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:22.680 and then we go, ah, here comes Russ. He's got 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:25.800 to make some magic app in here. And then Washington 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:31.080 talented defense fund defense. But this is the playoffs, and 0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:34.800 I wouldn't bet against Tom Brady. They should win this game. 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:40.080 But it's like New Orleans in Chicago is strangely intriguing 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:44.520 for me, just because they played already true. Whisky is 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:50.800 playing good. Good. They seem to play well against good 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:54.760 teams in New Orleans. I don't know what I have 0:15:54.840 --> 0:15:59.000 in Drew Brees Michael Thomas defense is good. I don't 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:03.560 have that home advantage. So somebody who's going to be 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:06.680 shocked on Monday morning, we're gonna go. Can you believe 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:09.480 that happened? They'll be at least one of those games. 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.440 It feels like all right. Phone calls are always welcome. 0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.240 Age seven seven three d P Show Male address DP 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:17.720 at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:20.480 We say good morning to our TV partner Peacock and 0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:24.480 our great radio affiliates numbering close to four hundred cities 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:28.600 around America that carry this broadcast. An award nominated broadcast, 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.040 not an award winning broadcast. Mcleven, do you have a 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.000 pull question before we take a break. Yeah, I'm gonna 0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:34.960 put up most likely blowout, and I'm gonna bet the 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:39.000 room that the Bills are that team because Philip rivers 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:42.360 cold Weather. Oh boy, yeah, but you're you're you're leading 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:44.920 the witness. I'm leading the witness. Well, nobody listens to me. 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:46.720 They only listen to what you say. Okay, but actually 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:48.280 the early leader. A lot of people have Bear Saints 0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:50.000 as a potential blot too, but I agree with you, 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:53.480 this is tricky. Yeah. It's one of those where and 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:55.920 I always go back when I used to gamble, and 0:16:56.000 --> 0:17:00.000 you'd go, oh, that's so obvious. And when it's obvious, 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.480 I always get nervous about it because you know they're 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:05.120 gonna blow him out. They're just times when you go, 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.040 how did that happen? It's like when the Jets beat 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:10.879 the Rams and you go, how did that happen? Well, 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.199 how did that happen? Minnesota beating Green Bay? How did 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.879 that happen? Yeah, mclub. If you're a betting or an analyst, 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.520 how do you know what presentage Jamal Adams is with 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:22.760 his shoulder and like all the code and Kimara can't practice, 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.440 I know, it feels really hard to make a smart pick. Well, 0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:28.679 Taysom Hill coming back from a concussion, Like, I'm just 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:32.800 there's there's uncertainty there. That's like if you're trying to 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:35.520 figure out if the Browns can beat the Steelers without 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:39.720 their head coach and starting offensive guard, good luck with that, 0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.199 And then trying to figure out if Ben Roethlisberger can 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:45.439 play at a high level anymore. He hasn't had a 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:48.200 good game. I think he's had a half of a 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:52.160 game since Thanksgiving. We haven't really seen much out of Ben. 0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:56.240 Defense isn't what it once was. They don't run the football. 0:17:56.600 --> 0:18:00.239 They're gonna throw the ball forty five times here. So 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:04.640 we'll talk to Sean Salisbury about the Deshaun Watson situation here, 0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.960 because boy did that get interesting yesterday. In a hurry, 0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:11.080 we'll talk to Sean and we'll touch on a couple 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:13.840 other topics as well, coming up on twenty after the hour. 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.639 This hour one Friday edition Dan and The Dannats Dan 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:19.720 Patrick Show.

He 0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.680 said that Deshaun Watson advocated for the Chiefs offensive coordinator 0:18:55.800 --> 0:19:00.119 Eric Biennemy. Patrick Mahomes even called Watson and said, I 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.320 want to put in a strong word for Eric B enemy. 0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:06.280 The Texans didn't even put in for a request to 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:11.119 interview Eric B Enemy. And this started yesterday at around 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:15.160 eleven twenty eleven o'clock somewhere in there, and Mike Florio said, 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:16.760 you know, I'm hearing a little too much here, and 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.360 he put it up on Pro Football Talk about Deshaun 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:24.160 Watson is unhappy and May asked to be traded. So 0:19:24.600 --> 0:19:28.000 we bring in Sean Salisbury. Sean who is the morning 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:30.960 host of the Sean Salisbury Show Sports Talk seven ninety 0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:34.560 in Houston, former NFL quarterback. How big did this get 0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:37.840 in Houston there? Sean? First off, Dan, was I not 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:45.800 in that playoff? Let me, I've got thirty less than Brady. 0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:48.920 You you never won a playoff game. I put it 0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:52.400 as a starter. Note the Cup. I won the Cup, 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:54.480 the Great Cup, the Great Cup. There you go. They 0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:57.600 playoff games, but I didn't win one. As a starter, 0:19:57.720 --> 0:19:59.640 I got us there, but I didn't win one. Let's 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.600 just put it that way. Ever won a Great Cup? 0:20:03.720 --> 0:20:06.560 You know what? That's a one heck of a point. 0:20:06.920 --> 0:20:09.600 So who's better me or Brady? That's what you gotta ask. 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:14.760 You are better in Canada is Yeah, I've got I've 0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:17.600 got far more in the north of the boarder than 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:20.720 Brady does. Dan, you asked me about Watson. First of all, 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.920 my head's gonna explode over this. Okay, in a Houston 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:26.119 season when there wasn't much going on in any of 0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:29.479 the sports, we've got hardened wants out. The Astros had 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:31.879 to go through what they went through, uh and self 0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:35.760 inflicted and now the best, the second best building franchise 0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:39.320 player in this league. We're talking about being unhappy now 0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:41.960 and cal McNair promised him that he'd at least have 0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:45.840 some input. I get his frustration. If you're gonna say something, 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:49.240 live by it. If not, then don't talk to the quarterback. 0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:52.000 Just let him do his thing. Deshaun's not getting traded. 0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:55.520 Golf got two ones, two twos, and two threes, Daniel, 0:20:55.720 --> 0:20:59.199 this is herschel Walker Hall. Because if I took Deshaun 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:01.560 Watson and stuck him in Kansas City, and I think 0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:04.000 Mahomes is the best in the league, I'm talking about 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:07.119 building franchise for the next seven to ten years that 0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:09.040 the Kansas City Chiefs would still be the number one 0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:10.840 seed in fourteen and two or thirteen and three if 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.520 Watson was there, if Mahomes was in Houston, the Texans 0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:17.760 would still be four and twelve. So I'm just telling 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:22.040 you that the distance between one and two is closer 0:21:22.280 --> 0:21:25.040 than the distance between the second and third best franchise 0:21:25.119 --> 0:21:28.399 builder in this league. You cannot trade Deshaun Watson. I 0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:32.440 know he should be frustrated, the ownership is dysfunctional. He's 0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:36.680 eric the enemy should get an interview. But you can't 0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:38.520 trade him because unless you want to give me eleven 0:21:38.560 --> 0:21:43.080 players or three ones, two twos, a starter and another starter, 0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:46.159 I'm not even answering your damn phone call. Yeah, but 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:52.000 if Watson wants out, well, Dan, he's under contract for 0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:54.200 what five years. He's a forty million dollars a year 0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:57.680 player with his DNA and his character. Okay, let's say 0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:00.680 it's August and they haven't traded him. That's just for fun. 0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.159 Say that you think he's not showing Name me a 0:22:03.240 --> 0:22:06.520 quarterback who's in his mid twenties. In the history of 0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:09.280 this game, the number one we've even thought about trading 0:22:09.640 --> 0:22:13.200 as an elite franchise quarterback or who's held out of 0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:16.440 camp for when you're making that money. You can find 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.200 me one. It's it's not gonna happen. But which management 0:22:19.280 --> 0:22:23.120
