12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 2: today's edition of Fox Football Saturday. Ephraim, I'm gonna start

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: the show today with something that I've been thinking about

14
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: since the Conference Championship games last week. So over the

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: course of my career, the course of my life, I

16
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: hear a lot of this here, a lot of a

17
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 2: lot of groundcovered right, and more and more I hear this.

18
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 2: You need to change with the times. You need to

19
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: get on board. Nothing is like it was. Change is inevitable.

20
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: Get with the times. So I'm thinking about this and

21
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: I'm looking back years ago and I remember I was

22
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: the co host of the first ever midday sports talk

23
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: radio show on the West Coast ever down at six

24
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 2: ninety and nineteen ninety, a show that went from noon

25
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,839
Speaker 2: to four. There had never been a midday sports radio

26
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: show on the West Coast. In fact, the only midday

27
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: sports radio show anywhere in the country had started the

28
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: year before with Mike and the Mad Dog. So they decided,

29
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: if they can do it in New York, we're going

30
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: to try it here. And I'm thinking to myself, who

31
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: the hell's listening. Daytime radio at that point, this is

32
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety was geared to women because women were home.

33
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: You had like radio psychologists. Those are really big, like

34
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: lady radio psychologists, and they would take calls and talk

35
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: to women that had problems and everything else. And I

36
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: was thinking to myself, all right, so you're asking me

37
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: to do a show in the middle of the day

38
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: and all the guys are at work, And this is

39
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: the assumption I'm making at the time, like who's listening?

40
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,839
Speaker 2: And what we found out real early was, well, they're

41
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: guys that were working, a lot of guys on the road.

42
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: They were listening on the road, and it didn't take

43
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: long for the show to catch fire, Like, Wow, what

44
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: took so long for someone to get the idea that

45
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 2: instead of afternoon drive, how about a sports radio show

46
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: during the day. There's an audience for it. So I

47
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: understand from my own experience that change can be a

48
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: good thing. And I've been I've been harped upon over

49
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 2: and over again about analytics in sports, and I want

50
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 2: to take a step back. I'm not going to have

51
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 2: some kind of blanket statement that say all analytics are bad.

52
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: But I also think this, if you're going solely on

53
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: analytics in terms of making a coaching decision, a managing decision,

54
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 2: based purely on the numbers, then I asked this question,

55
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: why do I need you? If everything's due to analytics.

56
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 2: I can stand there with a piece of paper and say,

57
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: all right, the chance of this happening is forty five percent,

58
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: but if I do this, it's fifty percent. I'm going

59
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: to go with the fifty percent. Why would I need

60
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: a coach? Why would I need a manager if you're

61
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: only going to go by analytics. So everyone's trying to

62
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: make excuses for what happened a week ago. Decisions that

63
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: were being made by coaches with the idea, well he's

64
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: being aggressive, or the analytics said this, analytics said that,

65
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: And my observation, call me in the old timer, get

66
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 2: off my lawn, whatever you want to call me, is

67
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: that if you had a feel for the game, you

68
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 2: know what the right thing should have been done as

69
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: opposed to what was done. All Right, I want to

70
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 2: back off for a second, Ephim, because you're of the

71
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: next tier generation, but you're you're approaching my level at

72
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: some point many years away.

73
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 3: I mean maybe like two generations remove, but go ahead.

74
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: All right. So my point is this is that when

75
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: I was watching the Detroit Lions and the forty nine Ers,

76
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: the Lions are up twenty four to seven and a

77
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: half time, forty nine Ers get the ball first and

78
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: your defense holds hold them to a field goal. Good deal.

79
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 2: Now you're driving down the field. Now you're ready for

80
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: this percentage. So they were in a position on fourd

81
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 2: down for Badge Lee to attempt a forty six yard

82
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 2: field goal. Ironically, his percentage of making that is forty

83
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 2: six percent. They had a fourth and two. You know what,

84
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: their percentage on that was forty seven percent. So based

85
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 2: on one percent they decide to go for it on

86
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: fourth and two.

87
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: Now, that would have made the game what seventeen points?

88
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: It would have been back to seventeen Again, it badly

89
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 2: makes the field goal back to twenty seven to ten,

90
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 2: a three score game late in the third quarter, late

91
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: in the third core. Yes, So in real time when

92
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: I'm watching this, all I'm thinking is this is a

93
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 2: no brainer. It's not a fifty plus yarder. No, Because

94
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: even if badly were to miss the field goal, Okay,

95
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: so then the forty nine ers get the ball, it's

96
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 2: no big deal. They're kicker Moody. He'd already missed the

97
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 2: field goal. So that's tiff for tat. But when a

98
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: team stops you on fourth down, that is an emotional

99
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 2: game changer, and the.

100
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 3: Forty nine ers it's called momentum.

101
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 2: Momentum, and in that moment it badly misses the field goal. Fine,

102
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers take down, they're down two touchdowns.

103
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: But by stopping the Lions on fourth down, even if

104
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: it was on a drop pass, it ignited that forty

105
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 2: nine Er team and in a blake of a I,

106
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: especially after Jamiro Gibbs fumbles the ball.

107
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: Times fourteen points.

108
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: Just like that, and so this gets back to a

109
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 2: field for the game as opposed to just simply going

110
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 2: with the analytics. All right, I defer to you. I'm

111
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 2: going to leave. Okay, lead now.

112
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 4: So to that point, I hope you're not still riding

113
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 4: around with an eight track in your car.

114
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 3: Okay, all right?

115
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: All tracks really good. They were really good back real

116
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 2: to day.

117
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 4: Don't know where you can get it serviced or even

118
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 4: buy an a track these days. Hope you don't even

119
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 4: have a CD player in your car.

120
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: Some of my best work I can't play. Let's put

121
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: it that well, we get it.

122
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 4: But to the point you were making, when I was

123
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 4: watching that game, I watched Dan Campbell and all the vibrado,

124
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: all the things that he did to change the culture

125
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 4: of the Detroit Lions. And trust me, I know I

126
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 4: played a year there. Towards the end of my career.

127
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 4: I played a year in Detroit and realized I wanted

128
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 4: to go do something else.

129
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 2: Now you you joined him the year after they were

130
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 2: zero and six.

131
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, when Jim Schwartz came in as a coach,

132
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 4: good coach, great coach. He's got letting hand hold nine yards.

133
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 4: And so as I'm watching this Detroit story. I'm pulling

134
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 4: for him because I know what they mean to the city,

135
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 4: I know what they mean the football, and so I'm like, Wow,

136
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 4: they really have an opportunity to do something special here.

137
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 4: And then I watched him on the UH first fourth

138
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,679
Speaker 4: and UH two to go up by three scores, again,

139
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 4: not by one, not by two, but to push the

140
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 4: lead back up to three scores. And if you really

141
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: look at the numbers, statistically, at that point in time,

142
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 4: a team would have a hard time scoring three times

143
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 4: unless something drastic happened. Right if you just took your

144
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: regular possessions, a team would have a tough time mid

145
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 4: to late third quarter to making up a three score difference,

146
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 4: since you want to use analytics. And then I watched

147
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 4: him choose to go for two, I mean to go

148
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 4: for the first down fourth and two, and I said

149
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 4: to myself, Wow, this has got to be the dumbest

150
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 4: thing that's about to happen right now. There is no

151
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 4: upside case in point where they were on the field.

152
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 4: Say you got the first down and you went three

153
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 4: more plays and you didn't you only gain four more

154
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 4: yards after the first down, So now it would be

155
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 4: fourth and six. You'd probably kick the field goal. So

156
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 4: what did you gain. You didn't gain anything. The chances

157
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 4: of you continuing to drive the ball down the field

158
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 4: to score a touchdown or very very low, very low

159
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 4: against that caliber defense in the second half. So not

160
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 4: only did you misread the analytics, you didn't look at

161
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 4: all of them. Because if you take the three points there,

162
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 4: the game shift dramatically.

163
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: In your favor to win.

164
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 4: That's what you need to look at, not about the

165
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 4: down and distance where you are on the field. But

166
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 4: if you're gonna use analytics, use all of them. What

167
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 4: happens if we go up by seventeen with six minutes

168
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 4: left in the third quarter, what are our percentages to win?

169
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 3: That's the only one that matters.

170
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 4: I watched him fail there, and I said, man, the

171
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 4: game is over right at that moment, even though San

172
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 4: Francisco was down fourteen points, I said, Dan Campbell just

173
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: lost the game.

174
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: They go down, they score right.

175
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 4: This thing that we talked you talked about earlier, momentum

176
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 4: is a real thing. It's a breathing thing. It's actually

177
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 4: a member of the team. That's why teams love to

178
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 4: play at home because they can control the momentum. It's

179
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 4: a dangerous thing when you're on the other side of

180
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 4: that momentum because you don't know how to stop it.

181
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 4: And so what happened is they go down to nam score.

182
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 4: Now it's a one possisi game instead of three. It's one. Right,

183
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 4: your chances of winning drop down dramatically, analytics. You come

184
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 4: out first, play hand the ball off fumble in your territory.

185
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 4: What happens, They go and score, They tie the game.

186
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: Your chances of winning plummet, plummet because you're on the road.

187
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 4: Momentum has shifted and the team that you're going against,

188
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: the home team now has every advantage. You come down,

189
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: you have an opportunity to I believe, tie the game.

190
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 4: You have an opportunity to tie the game. Right, let's

191
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 4: prolong this game. Let's try to capture some of this

192
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 4: momentum back. This is late in the fourth quarter. You

193
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 4: decide that you're gonna go for it again on fourth down.

194
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 4: This is how we got here. You're down three, this

195
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 4: is how we got here. Let's not tie the game

196
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 4: and the biggest game in the history of the Detroit

197
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 4: Lions as we know it history. You choose to let

198
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 4: your ego get in the way of what's best for

199
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 4: you, your team, and your city. And now they're at home,

200
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 4: they're gonna watch the super Bowl, like we're gonna watch

201
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 4: the super Bowl.

202
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 2: So you don't go for the field goal to tie it,

203
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 2: you miss on fourth down and the forty nine er

204
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 2: score to go uptown and then you get a garbage

205
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 2: touchdown late in the game they had no chance of

206
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 2: You can't do what kick. Look this, this again is

207
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: the analytics scheme. But what we're talking about is this.

208
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: And you bring up the great point about this wasn't

209
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: like going for it fourth down at you know, inside

210
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 2: the ten yard line, you're still if you get three

211
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 2: or four yards instead of a forty six yard field goal,

212
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,559
Speaker 2: now you got a forty two yard field goal. Does

213
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 2: that really make a difference. Doesn't make a difference at all.

214
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 3: Nope, not at all.

215
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: So I mean, afterwards, you know, you hear Dan Campbell

216
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 2: defending his decision. Lion fans will back up Campbell no

217
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 2: matter what. It's amazing. Everyone else is looking like, what

218
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 2: the hell did you just do? You just blew it,

219
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 2: especially on the road because by the forty nine ers

220
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 2: stopping on fourth down, that gets the crowd back into

221
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 2: it and that gets momented because up to that point,

222
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: even though it was twenty four forty nine ers that

223
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: done nothing that game the second half, they couldn't even

224
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 2: get in their like this game is also got it?

225
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: Oh, we have to match their points they got three weeks.

226
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: And the fact that the Lions got the ball back

227
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 2: in their first possession of the same went right down

228
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 2: the field and it's like take the field goal, go

229
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: up seventeen and blink of an e instead of up seventeen,

230
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 2: it's tied points.

231
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 4: Pre Look, look, we saw them lose the game uh

232
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 4: in the regular season that changes their seeding. We saw

233
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 4: them go for two and then they take that away

234
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 4: for penalty. They back all the way up and they

235
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: went for two again from the ten yard line.

236
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 2: All Right, we got a big thank you from the

237
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 2: forty nine ers. We also have a big thank you

238
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 2: for the Kansas City Chiefs. We're going a breakdown. As

239
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 2: disappointing as the Lion's decision was, maybe you have the

240
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 2: advantage of the excuse that we have a young coach

241
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: and he's ever been in that position before. I'm trying

242
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 2: to figure out what the excuse was for John Harbaugh

243
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: and his game plan against the Chiefs. We'll break it down.

244
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,120

Speaker 2: Yeah, Steve Harbin e from Salam this is Fox Football Saturday.

266
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: We're live from the tire rackt dot com studios get

267
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: it ready for the Super Bowls in Vegas this year.

268
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: It's one of the few you I will not be

269
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 2: hanging out at the super Bowl. Not going right, No,

270
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 2: not this year.

271
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 3: Really.

272
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 2: Well, now, I've been credentialed for twenty six Super Bowl weeks.

273
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 2: That's a lot of Super Bowls I've covered over the years,

274
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: a lot.

275
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 3: Are you credentialed for this one?

276
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 2: I'm not, and I'm not really seeking to. I put

277
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 2: it this way, So my normal routine during Super Bowl

278
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: weeks was to cover the week and then get home

279
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: and usually get paid to make an appearance watching the game.

280
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 2: There's nothing better than that. So you get to watch

281
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 2: the game and get paid at the same time. Love that.

282
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: That's a double. So I've only actually been in attendance

283
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 2: at four super Bowls, and I feel like those are

284
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 2: four super Bowls I missed. But to me, super Bowl

285
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: is about the whole TV experience. You got the commercials,

286
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: you got the halftime show and everything else. It's not

287
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: like a regular game when you're going to the game.

288
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 2: And I've sat Inigular's seats. I've said in the press box,

289
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: I feel those four super Bowls that I actually was

290
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: in attendance are games that I missed, So I'm looking

291
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: forward to this matchup, or I really am, but it's

292
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: not one that should have happened. We talked about the

293
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: Lions failure to protect a twenty four to seven a

294
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 2: half time lead. The Lions should have been in the

295
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, and the Ravens had every reason to be

296
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 2: in the super Bowl as well, except for a complete

297
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: miscalculation on a game plan against Kandas City Chiefs. Now,

298
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 2: last week, you were not here. Kerry Rhodse was here.

299
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 2: Carrie went to Louisville. He's a friend of Lamar Jackson,

300
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 2: so I asked him, have you spoken to Lamar this week? Yes,

301
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 2: and I said, my concern about Lamar Jackson in this

302
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 2: matchup is that Patrick Mahomes is on the other side

303
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 2: of the field and that he comes in with the

304
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: mindset that I have to outplay Patrick Mahoons being the

305
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 2: assumed MVP this season, and that's a dangerous thing going

306
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: against a quarterback who has the postseason pedigree of a

307
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: guy like Patrick Mahomes. If Lamar Jackson stays in his lane,

308
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: does what he does best, the Ravens should be okay

309
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 2: at home. So what happened. Now we talked about fourth down.

310
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 2: How about what happened in this game? The Chiefs go

311
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 2: right down the field, score boom, seven to nothing. Ravens. Well,

312
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 2: actually the Ravens had the ball first. They had a

313
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 2: three and out. Now you're down seven nothing, you have

314
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 2: a fourth down in your own territory, and they go

315
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 2: for it. Now. John Harbaugh is one of those coaches

316
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: that was really on the edge of being that first

317
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: guy to start going in on fourth down. It worked.

318
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 2: Keeper goes for twenty one, handoff for fifteen. Next thing,

319
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: throw a perfect touchdown past the say Flowers, and we're

320
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 2: tied at seven. I'm like, we got a game, except

321
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: for one small problem. At that point, the Ravens decided

322
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 2: our guy can match Mahomes throw for throw a band

323
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 2: in the running game, and I'm like, wait a second, here,

324
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: you're at home. You were it was never you're never

325
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 2: down two touchdowns in this game is a one score

326
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 2: game the entire way, and they completely abandoned their running game,

327
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 2: even though it was clear that Lamar Jackson was not

328
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 2: going to throw a high percentage of against oh, the

329
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 2: number one rank pass defense in the NFL. You talk

330
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 2: about a miscalculation, isn't all Lamar Jackson, Yeah, he didn't execute.

331
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 2: But I'm looking at John Harbaugh, the coach of the team,

332
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 2: standing on the sideline watching his offense sputter trying to

333
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 2: throw the football, and I'm thinking, what are you doing?

334
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 2: That one to me was on Harbaugh first and Lamar

335
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: Jackson's second. That was my thought.

336
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 4: So coming into this game in this season, and Lamar

337
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 4: had a lot to prove. New offensive coordinator, more passing,

338
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 4: less dependency on your legs, so less called runs. Okay,

339
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 4: that's great, keep them healthy. He does have a tremendous arm.

340
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 4: He can throw from anywhere on the field. Got the touch,

341
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 4: he got everything. He's a quarterback, it's an MVP. But

342
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 4: they came out sluggish and slow last week against Houston,

343
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 4: and then the second half, Lamar did what he did best.

344
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 4: He had eleven carries for one hundred yards it's almost

345
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 4: ten yards to carry and two rushing touchdowns. It completely

346
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 4: threw the Houston defense off kilter because you can't guard everybody,

347
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 4: and so I'm like, oh, okay, they figured it out fast.

348
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 4: Forward to the the biggest game of his life, THEFC

349
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 4: Championship game, and you look at the numbers. Lamar Jackson

350
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 4: threw the ball thirty seven times. It's a seven point game.

351
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 4: It's a seven point game. He threw the balls thirty

352
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 4: seven times, he ran the ball eight And even though

353
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 4: he only ran the ball eight, he still rushed for

354
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 4: fifty four yards. That's seven yards to carry.

355
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 2: Think about this, thirty seven pass attempts in a one

356
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 2: score game. It's not like you were down two touchdowns.

357
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 3: They ran the ball sixteen total times.

358
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 2: Crazy number one rushing defense offense in the league.

359
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 4: So to me, what happened was and it's not only

360
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 4: Lamar's fault. When you have to put your ego aside

361
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 4: for the betterment of the team, then you gotta do

362
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 4: what you have to do. Yeah, you got Mark Andrews back,

363
00:20:55,040 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 4: that's great. What I watched Lamar do is just play

364
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 4: into the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs.

365
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: It's like a dream for them.

366
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 4: They were petrified of Lamar just taking off because they

367
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 4: know that's their way to prolonged drives. The best way

368
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 4: to beat a quarterback the caliber of Patrick Mahomes is

369
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 4: to keep him standing right over there on the sideline

370
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 4: as you complete third and short after third and short

371
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 4: after third and short.

372
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 2: Did you see time of possession in this game? It

373
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 2: was like two to one.

374
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 4: So when I watched Lamar Jackson sitting in the pocket

375
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 4: and he's patting the bat the ball three times, oh,

376
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 4: I said, Oh, this is not Lamar Jackson. Lamar hits

377
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 4: on his back foot. He looks, looks, Pat's gone. You

378
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 4: can't you can't cover that as a defense. You can't

379
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 4: cover that. Which you can't cover is a quarterback who

380
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 4: can't get out of the pocket, who's going to hold

381
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 4: onto the ball, and that's what they forced him to do.

382
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 4: He had an opportunity to take off. I was just

383
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 4: I was screaming at the top of my lungs. Run, run,

384
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 4: you had the whole field. You're one of the best

385
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,959
Speaker 4: athletes on the entire field.

386
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 3: Just go, just go. They'd be in the Super Bowl.

387
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: The reason we've got the forty nine Ers versus the

388
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 2: Chiefs and the Super Bowl two people, Dan Campbell and

389
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 2: John Harbaugh. They lost games they should not have lost.

390
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 2: But that does give us a great matchup and we're

391
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 2: gonna get into that. But first let's find out what

392
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 2: it's trending right now. Brian Finley is here be Fenn

393
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 2: another long day if you be fan. He does all

394
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 2: the work here at Fox Sports Radios, multitude of jobs,

395
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 2: including doing a little postgame UCLA brewin basketball talk tonight,

396
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 2: filling in for the great Tim Kats.

397
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 6: I expect you to be calling in, Steve as a UCLA.

398
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: I have TV work tonight, so I'm just sitting around

399
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 2: doing nothing. So yeah, I can call in, Yeah.

400
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 6: Call in, and I want to hear what you have

401
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 6: to say about the game after the win, because the

402
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 6: Bruins are on the up and up.

403
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 2: They've won four of the last five after losing eight

404
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 2: out of nine. I was talking about this or five

405
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 2: and five. In the conference. The Pac twelve sucks. I mean,

406
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 2: it's a terrible basketball conference this year. Arizona keeps losing

407
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: and they're supposedly a top twenty team.

408
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 3: I don't know.

409
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 2: I'm looking. Can UCLA win six of the last eight,

410
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 2: maybe get a three seed, because they do, they have

411
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 2: to win the conference tournament have any chance to go

412
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 2: to the Big Dame.

413
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 6: I think we can all agree that Arizona is extremely

414
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 6: overrated and they talk a big game and they don't

415
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 6: always deliver.

416
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 2: So that's the USC dead last alone in the Pac

417
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 2: twelve day. Can they sign the number one high school recruit.

418
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 6: They did, But you know what they do. They play

419
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 6: soft wow, And I did say that. But teams that

420
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 6: win against them, and I think Andy Enfield, their coach,

421
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 6: would be the first to tell you this, Like teams

422
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 6: are out aggressiveing that's not even a word.

423
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 2: But when you.

424
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 6: Take the aggressiveness to them, they sort of back down.

425
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 6: It's it's like the Mattador defense.

426
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 2: How does he survive?

427
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: Well, he's a great recruiter and a lot of the

428
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 6: problems that they're having right now are injury related. So

429
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 6: there is that obvious, low hanging fruit of an excuse.

430
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 6: But they don't have their top player, Isaiah Calliger, he's

431
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 6: been out. They've got guys in and out, so and

432
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 6: that's the same thing for Oregon, who UCLA is going

433
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 6: to be hosting tonight at poly Pavilion. Organ's got some

434
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 6: injury issues as well. So you can go to that excuse,

435
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 6: but you can only go for it for so long.

436
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,120
Speaker 6: All right, Well, all right, we'll get to our March

437
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 6: matters a little bit later on. Speaking of injuries, a

438
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 6: Bulls superstar Lezach Levine will be out for the rest

439
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 6: of the season because of that right foot injury. He's

440
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 6: gonna have surgery on that now and he is going

441
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 6: to miss about four to six weeks to well. Embiid

442
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 6: has a displaced flap of the meniscus in his left

443
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,959
Speaker 6: knee and he is considering rest rehab or the other

444
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 6: option would be committing himself to surgery. The Dolphins finalize

445
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 6: Anthony Weaver as their defensive coordinator. Cliff Kingsbury, finalist for

446
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 6: the Washington Commander's offensive coordinator. Vacancy did the hula hoop

447
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 6: around the verbal agreement he made with the Raiders to

448
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 6: be their OC, and Kingsbury and Las Vegas reportedly got

449
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 6: stuck in a contract dispute, and rumor is that Chip Kelly,

450
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 6: who has had two interviews with the Raiders in the

451
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 6: last few days, could be the one that Las Vegas

452
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 6: tabs to be their next offensive coordinator. Also, NASCAR has

453
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 6: decided to run their clash tonight at the La Colseum

454
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 6: as opposed to tomorrow in hopes of avoiding some of

455
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 6: the rain, and our sister station FS one will carry

456
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 6: it starting at eight eastern times in college shops. We

457
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 6: did see a win for number one Yukon as they

458
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 6: paulish off of victory against Saint John seventy seven to

459
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 6: sixty four.

460
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 2: Yes he from.

461
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 6: Salaam, what a win for your San Diego State asclet

462
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 6: Yes at home eighty one to sixty seven eight triumph

Speaker 6: to number four Houston seventy six to sixty five hundred.

467
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 6: Dickinson had twenty points and eight rebounds. We do know

468
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 6: that the Live Golf Invitational and Maya Copa is going

469
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 6: on their first event of the year. Joaquin Neeman is

470
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 6: your leader there. And as far as the AT and

471
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 6: T Pebble Beach Pro Am on the PGA Tour side,

472
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 6: Wyndham Clark, Yeah, I had to research that name for

473
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 6: a second, but yeah, seventeen hunder is where he is.

474
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 6: He leads all by two shots. And Steven e from

475
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 6: he shot a sixty today in their third round, had

476
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 6: a couple of missed putts by millimeters to get himself

477
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 6: inside sixty. That sixty is a course record at Pebble

478
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 6: Beach and as they flipped the microphone back over to

479
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 6: you eat from and Steve. I know, Steve, you shoot sixty,

480
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 6: but that's for nine holes.

481
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 2: Never, you know, the problem when you don't play a

482
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 2: lot of There was a time when I actually played

483
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 2: quite a bit of golf, and I actually learned how

484
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 2: to sort of play a little bit. I actually broke

485
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 2: ninety once on a legit course, not like a you know,

486
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: championship level. But I mean, you know, sure, but the

487
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 2: rare times that I ever play anymore, I can still

488
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 2: hit the ball off the tee pretty well. The short game,

489
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: short game gone, you know. I mean I I outside

490
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 2: of a tapping, I can't make a plot.

491
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 6: When I saw Tom Brady and you guys probably saw

492
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 6: this within the week when he duffed his driver at

493
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 6: Pebble Beach, the first person I thought of was you.

494
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: No, that is that would be the biggest shock to you?

495
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 2: Is Well, it always helps to have a few bloody

496
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 2: Mary's before I t off something like that at But no,

497
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 2: I learned how to turn, so I don't slice. You know,

498
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 2: there's there's always that big difference between slicing and hooking

499
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 2: and fading and drawing. Yeah, that's what you want to

500
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 2: fade and draw what are we doing, guys?

501
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 4: Let me tell let me tell you this one hundred

502
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 4: the people listening can't care less exactly.

503
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, all right, thank you so much.

504
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree with you more.

505
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 3: I just I just yawned in the studio and I

506
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 3: was like, oh, snap.

507
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 2: This is real, all right, we're here live from the

508
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 2: tirerech dot com. Stitious. I went down that path. I'm

509
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: sorry about that, all right. I want to get back

510
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: to a guy named Patrick Mahomes, so I said going

511
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: into this game against the Ravens. If he pulls off

512
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 2: the double winning at Buffalo at Baltimore having never had

513
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 2: a road playoff game before, there are only two names

514
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: ahead of him in the history of the NFL that

515
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 2: I would say have a better resume at quarterback, Tom

516
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: Brady being one and Joe man Tanna be in two.

517
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 2: And Joan Bontana is there because of his four for

518
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 2: four in the Super Bowl and never even throwing a

519
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 2: single interception in those four games. He's like the Michael Jordan,

520
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 2: you know, six and six in the NBA Finals. That's

521
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 2: how That's how Montana is. Nobody else. See you later,

522
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, throw any name out there. Mahomes

523
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 2: has passed you because of his ability to come up

524
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 2: with the big plays in the biggest games.

525
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 4: So that would give him if he wins this game,

526
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 4: I'd to give him three super Bowls.

527
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: That's three super.

528
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 3: Bowls in six years.

529
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah. Well, he's the first quarterback ever to start

530
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 2: six consecutive conference championship games. The only other quarterback that

531
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 2: did five was Ken Stabler of the Raiders. Ironically, he

532
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 2: lost four of those five. He started six consecutive AFC

533
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: championship games. That's never been done before, no quarterback operating,

534
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: nobody has ever done that. So he is in that

535
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 2: rarefied air. So I want to ask you as you

536
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 2: watch Patrick Mahomes from your thirteen year experience playing in

537
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 2: the National Football League, playing with, playing against so many quarterbacks,

538
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 2: more than we could talk about. When you watch Patrick Mahomes,

539
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 2: and I look at I too. Before last season, I

540
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 2: was one of those when Tyreek Hill left for Miami

541
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 2: and he said, that's it. You're going to find out

542
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 2: Without Tyreek Hilly, he won the Super Bowl and now

543
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 2: playing their best football when it counts, when they need

544
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 2: a play, Mahomes delivers. So when you watch him play,

545
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 2: he from Why what is it about Patrick Mahomes that

546
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 2: separates himself from all the rest?

547
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 3: When you watch.

548
00:30:53,680 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes play, you get a sense that he can

549
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 4: make any in every throw, or you get a sense

550
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 4: that he'll make the right decision, whether it's the read,

551
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 4: whether it's scrambling. He's not a scrambling quarter it's not

552
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 4: a running quarterback. But what we've seen, especially last year

553
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl, without his legs, they don't win

554
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 4: that Super Bowl. And so you're at a position to

555
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 4: when you're watching him play, it's a masterclass. Right, you

556
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 4: take away the fastest receiver in the league, they go

557
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 4: back and they win the Super Bowl. You have a

558
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 4: bevy of drops all year, I mean Kelsey dropping them.

559
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 4: Every single receiver has dropped them. We've seen them dip

560
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 4: this year offensively further than we've seen since it's you know,

561
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 4: he's been started there. But yet here we are in

562
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl and the gauntlet that he had to

563
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 4: go through to get to the Super Bowl. I mean

564
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 4: it was one in Buffalo, one degree on the road.

565
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 4: Then he has to go to Baltimore, the MVP of

566
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 4: the league. Okay, he makes the right plays all the time,

567
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 4: which is annoying if you're not a Kansas City Chiefs fan.

568
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 4: So watching him play, you understand. And Brady had a

569
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 4: little bit of this, a lot a bit of this.

570
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 4: Excuse me, He's never out of it no matter what's

571
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 4: going on in the game, how much time is on

572
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 4: the clock. This is the same man with nine seconds

573
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 4: on the clock put his team in position to kick

574
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 4: a field goal nine seconds. I've never seen that before

575
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 4: in my life. He has a way of doing exactly

576
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 4: what you need him to do. This run is really

577
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 4: just beginning for him, because I mean, he could be

578
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 4: four super Bowls in six year.

579
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 2: All right, So this is where I want to jump

580
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: in for a quick moment here because I mentioned the

581
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 2: two guys ahead of him. Now here's something about Joe Montana.

582
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 2: Between his first two Super Bowl wins and his second

583
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 2: Super Bowl wins two wins, they had three straight one

584
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 2: and outs. A couple of them were ugly ugly. In fact,

585
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 2: in two of those three games, the forty nine Ers

586
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 2: didn't score a touchdown, so they had three consecutive one

587
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 2: and outs and then ended up winning another back to

588
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 2: back Super Bowl. Tom Brady had a ten year hiatus.

589
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 3: Yep.

590
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 2: From his first three to the next three, there was

591
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 2: a ten year gap, so it was a shorter gap

592
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: for Montana, a longer gap for Brady to get back

593
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: to winning super Bowls. Can Mahomes avoid that and just

594
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 2: keep rolling?

595
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

596
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 2: And it I mean, obviously, if he were to win

597
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 2: three straight super Bowls, winning this super Bowl and then

598
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 2: the next, now you've done something no one's ever done.

599
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 4: And I'll tell you the key to that. He is

600
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 4: the key to that right now. Of course, health has

601
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 4: a lot to do it. You know, you remember Brady

602
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 4: lost the whole year with the knee. But here's what

603
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 4: Brady did better than anybody else. And we still don't

604
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 4: know what New England necessarily did with the money that

605
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 4: they saved on Brady.

606
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 2: Brady always from the Fox Sports Studios.

607
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 3: In law, Brady always saw legacy before money.

608
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 2: But I think has done the same thing.

609
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 3: And that's what I'm saying.

610
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 2: He's playing on our market value, way on our market value.

611
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,919
Speaker 4: His market value was sixty five million dollars a year.

612
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 4: That's what his market value is. It'll be sixty five

613
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 4: million dollars a year. You know what happens if you

614
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 4: pay a one person that on the team.

615
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 3: You got that one person, all right? Now.

616
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 4: Case in point, if he continues to have these team

617
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 4: friendly deals, they'll be a You're going to have receivers

618
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 4: lining up to come play there, to take less to

619
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 4: play there. If they can keep this model going, then

620
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 4: he has an opportunity to win not only seven, but

621
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 4: more so.

633
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 2: So have you been watching any of the Pro Bowl games?

634
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 3: No?

635
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 2: No, no, not at all.

636
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 3: I'm good.

637
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 2: You know, there was actually a time when I was

638
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 2: young where the Pro Bowl Game was an opportunity for

639
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 2: players to sort of test their level against the best

640
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 2: players in the league. You didn't see players backing out

641
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 2: of the game unless they had a legitimate injury. You

642
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 2: would have maybe one or two replacements for legitimately injured players.

643
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 2: Now you have thirty replacements. Gardner Minshew is now a

644
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 2: Pro bowler. Gardner Minshew's man, I wish I would have

645
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 2: played in this. I mean, you would have had ten

646
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 2: Pro Bowls.

647
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:34,280
Speaker 3: I would have been amazing.

648
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 2: You would have had ten Pro Bowls.

649
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 4: I played in the era with some of the greatest

650
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 4: offensive linemen on the planet Earth.

651
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 2: Offensive tackles are all in the Hall of Fame.

652
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 3: Yes.

653
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of Hall of Fame coming up

654
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 2: in the next hour, you know I'm a big follower

655
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 2: of the Hall of Fame. I'm a little obsessed over

656
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 2: the top, and based on my knowledge of the voting

657
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 2: process I'm going to give you, I'm going to do

658
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 2: a prediction coming up in the next hour as as

659
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 2: far as the five modern candidates that are going to

660
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: make up the class of twenty twenty four, I bet

661
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 2: I'll be close. But I got some ideas. I got

662
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,439
Speaker 2: some ideas on that coming up in the next hour.

663
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to that rock party has more playoff

664
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 2: wins than Lamar Jackson.

665
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, Brock Party got a more playoff wins than a

666
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 4: lot of people.

667
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's already won three playoff games. Is a

668
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 2: three three playoff games in his short career. And by

669
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 2: the way, these two wins that he has shown this

670
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 2: year both come from behind wins.

671
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, those are the intangible things that we heap on

672
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 4: to elite quarterbacks right when you need it the most.

673
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 4: Can you do something right? In that Baltimore game, they

674
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 4: were down by seven, Lamar Jackson, we need something from you.

675
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 4: We got nothing. In the Buffalo game, Josh Allen, we

676
00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 4: meet something from you. They got nothing. And so Rock

677
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 4: Party we need something. Okay, I got you.

678
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

679
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 4: And I'll say this about brock Party, and I stand

680
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 4: by this. If brock Party, who's playing twenty six games,

681
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 4: won twenty one of them. If Brock Party was the

682
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,320
Speaker 4: first pick in the draft last year instead of Bryce

683
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 4: Young and this was his resume, we would be praising him, right.

684
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 4: But because he was the last pick in the draft,

685
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 4: we refuse to praise him. We give praise to everybody

686
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 4: around him and say he's average. And to me, that's

687
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 4: not fair.

688
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 2: Well, and I felt pray to this. You and I

689
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 2: have been defenders of Rock Party.

690
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 3: Look at his numbers.

691
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 2: But then they had that lost to Baltimore. That happens,

692
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 2: and I was like, all right, well that wasn't that

693
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 2: was it happens?

694
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 3: It does.

695
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 2: They all have ugly games.

696
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 3: Tell me one great quarterback that hasn't had.

697
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 2: Another guniet ugly games.

698
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 3: This kid has played twenty six football games. Yes, he's

699
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 3: won twenty five of them.

700
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 4: He's been to two NFC Championship games and a Super

701
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 4: Bowl and a year.

702
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 2: Here's the one two years. Here's the one thing I know.

703
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 2: Brock Purty will not do that Lamar Jackson did. And

704
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 2: that's fall prey to the idea that I got to

705
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 2: outplay Patrick Mahons.

706
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 3: Oh no, he just gonna play his game.

707
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 2: He's only he's gonna play his game with a game

708
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 2: he doesn't compare. Even if he doesn't complete a pass.

709
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 2: If they win this game, he'll get acknowledged.

710
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: You know.

711
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 2: One of the great ironies of pro football history is

712
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 2: Joe Namas winning Super Bowl three. He did not throw

713
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 2: a touchdown pass in that game. In fact, if anyone,

714
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 2: based on the numbers, should have been the MVP of

715
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 2: the game was Matt Snell, the running back. He had

716
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 2: thirty carries one hundred and twenty one yards, and he

717
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 2: scored the only touchdown of the game for the Jets.

718
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 2: He was the MVP. They gave it to Namath because

719
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 2: he was the quarterback. Now, in those days, quarterbacks called

720
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 2: their plays, so he doesn't have somebody. So he had

721
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 2: a field for the game. And he felt like one way,

722
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,280
Speaker 2: because the Colts had a high powered offense, let's run clock.

723
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 2: We're gonna run the football we know we can and

724
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 2: once it was successfully continued. Don Maynard, his Hall of

725
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 2: Fame wide receiver who had two touchdowns in the AFL

726
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 2: Championship Game, caught zero passes in that Super Bowl. He

727
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 2: used him as a decoy the entire game. You know,

728
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 2: didn't complain. Don Maynard, never the w man, never complain

729
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame receiver, he all time record for receptions

730
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 2: at the time of his retirement, never complained that he

731
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 2: didn't catch a single pass in that Super Bowls crazy.

732
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 2: And I believe brock Purty is of that mindset.

733
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 3: Man. His kid is a gamer, all right, Who's gonna.

734
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 2: Make that Hall of Fame class At twenty twenty four,

735
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 2: I have some ideas about that much more on the

736
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. This is Fox Football Saturday, all right, rolling

737

743
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 2: such a great time as we get ready for the

744
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, and a lot of other things are taken

745
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 2: care of as well. Coming up on Thursday, we'll have

746
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 2: the NFL Honors Show, well, the giveaway all the awards.

747
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 2: Its gonna be interesting when Lamar Jackson is named the MVP.

748
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 2: And again, all these awards are voted on at the

749
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 2: end of the regular season. And I've been asked over

750
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 2: the years, because I'm a little bit of an awards freak,

751
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 2: well big time, whether or not how do we talk

752
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 2: about the Heisman? We talk about all these awards major well,

753
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 2: every single sport votes on the season awards based on

754
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 2: regular season and not the postseason. And then I say,

755
00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that because Ultimately, what's

756
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 2: more valuable being a regular season MVP or being a

757
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 2: Super Bowl MVP?

758
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 3: Super Bowl MVP all day.

759
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 2: Exactly same thing with being an NBA Finals MVP or

760
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: a World Series MVP or you know the Stanley c

761
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,800
Speaker 2: the con smythe which is given to the best player

762
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 2: in the postseason. Most people would say that that's a

763
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 2: more prestigious honor than any regular season honors you might get, Yeah.

764
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 4: Because when you look at it, you know, based on

765
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 4: that there have been some league mvpes who've never played

766
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 4: in a super Bowl or an NBA Finals or a

767
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 4: World Series.

768
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 2: Sure, so.

769
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 3: The whole point is to win it all.

770
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 2: Right, Now, what they used to do with these regular

771
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,840
Speaker 2: season awards voted on at the Associated Press in the

772
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,800
Speaker 2: NFL is that they would announce them in the course

773
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 2: going to the Super Bowl. Then they created this NFL

774
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 2: honor show, which can be awkward because like in the

775
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 2: case of Lamar Jackson, He's going to stand up there

776
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: be handed the MVP award and people are going to like, well,

777
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 2: how's he the MVP after what he did last week

778
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 2: against the team. Again, the ward was voted on, you know,

779
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 2: before last day of the regular season. Also announced will

780
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,360
Speaker 2: be the new Hall of Fame class. Now, this is

781
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 2: something from I follow like no other, and I have

782
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 2: people I talked to and we throw ideas out there

783
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 2: try to come up with predictions on who exactly is

784
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 2: going to make up the class. I'm not going to

785
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,399
Speaker 2: include the old timers or the coaching Canada. I'm talking

786
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 2: about the five modern inductees into the Class of twenty

787
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 2: twenty four. So they announced fifteen finalists and five of

788
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 2: them will make it. Question is which five?

789
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:49,800
Speaker 3: Which five?

790
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 2: So I'm going to break this down for you right now?

791
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 2: Are you ready for this?

792
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 3: I'm ready, all right.

793
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 2: So there are two first ballot finalists first year of

794
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 2: eligible ability Boom. Their finalists Julius Peppers and Antonio Gates.

795
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 2: They both go in right, yes, No, really, here's my

796
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 2: theory on this. I think Julius Peppers is automatically getting in.

797
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 2: But I'm going to tell you why I don't believe

798
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,040
Speaker 2: Antonio Gates will be a first ballot Hall of Famer.

799
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 2: Two reasons. One, There's only been one tight end ever

800
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 2: to be first ballot ever, Tony Gonzalez. And as great

801
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,320
Speaker 2: as Gates was, he doesn't have those kind of numbers

802
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 2: that Gonzalez has two You got busted for pds late

803
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 2: in his career. And by the way, did I tell

804
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 2: you that Shannon Sharp called my radio show after that

805
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 2: came out? This was unbelievable. I'm like, they like, we

806
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 2: got Shannon Sharp on the phone. I'm like what. And

807
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 2: he wanted to dismiss Antonio Gates from ever getting into

808
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. I'm like, that's not gonna happen.

809
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 2: It was a bizarre call, but it was actually him

810
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 2: calling in the show. But I believe the only other

811
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 2: tight end that will be a first ballot guy will

812
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 2: be Gronk, who is ineligible yet for the Hall of Fame.

813
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 3: I think Travis Kelcey as well well.

814
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 2: And Travis kelce down the road and fair or not.

815
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 2: And again we're talking about a guy, Antonio Gates who

816
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 2: has more touchdown receptions than any tight end in the

817
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 2: history of the game. I think they're gonna say he's

818
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 2: not Tony Ganzalas. So that's one guy, Julius Peppers. Okay,

819
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 2: all right, There's two guys that I think have been

820
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 2: very close that are finally going to get in. One

821
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 2: of them is Devin Hester. Now, this has been the

822
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 2: big argument about a guy who probably will be the

823
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 2: worst wide receiver ever to go into the Hall of Fame.

824
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 2: Then he plays some defensive back as well. He couldn't

825
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 2: do those things, but as a kick return artist, twenty

826
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 2: returned to touchdowns and that doesn't include the opening kickoff

827
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 2: of the Super Bowl he played.

828
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 4: In brother That brother was Danger Russ Again.

829
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,720
Speaker 2: Can you write the history of the game without mentioning

830
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 2: Devin Hister. No, No, He's the greatest return man in

831
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 2: the history of the game. I think hester gets in.

832
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,399
Speaker 2: Another guy I think that's going to get in he's

833
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 2: been closed the last couple of years is Patrick Willis.

834
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 2: Willis is one of those guys that had a shortened

835
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 2: career career, but when he played Pro Bowl, All.

836
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 3: Pro like every year, best in the game.

837
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 2: So I think those are two specialty guys, one because

838
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 2: of a shortened career, one because he's a return guy.

839
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 2: We've never had a pure return guy really get in

840
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 2: the Hall. I think they get in, all right. That's

841
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,760
Speaker 2: three of the five. This is where it gets tricky.

842
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 2: So there are three wide receivers and they've all been

843
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 2: on this ballot several times. Tory Holt, Reggie Wayne and

844
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 2: Andre Johnson. One of those guys has got to make

845
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 2: it this year. And I'm going to tell you why

846
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 2: I'm picking the one guy. You look at Tory Holt,

847
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 2: he had a Hall of Fame quarterback and a Hall

848
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 2: of Fame receiver on the other side of Isaac Bruce.

849
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,359
Speaker 2: If you look at Reggie Wayne, he had a Hall

850
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 2: of Fame quarterback and a Hall of Fame receiver on

851
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 2: the other side. And Marvin Harrison, Andre Johnson, Matt Schaub,

852
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,280
Speaker 2: David Carr, David Carr, Matt Schaub.

853
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 3: Oh, I know I was there, Yeah, I was there.

854
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 2: So based on that, because they're gonna break that. I

855
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 2: guarantee they're gonna break this log gym. They're gonna say

856
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 2: if Andre Johnson had if he was part of the

857
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 2: greatest Shaw on turf, or if he had Peyton Manning,

858
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 2: think of the number he had three years, over fifteen

859
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,240
Speaker 2: hundred yards receiving.

860
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 4: First receiver to ever do it, and back to back

861
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 4: years for three years.

862
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna say Andre Johnson is my fourth guy,

863
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:55,879
Speaker 2: all right. I know you're a big offensive line guy,

864
00:47:56,239 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 2: Jari Evans, Willie Anderson. See the problem with Willie Anderson

865
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 2: and is what is he the fifth best offensive tackle

866
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 2: of his era? As great as he was, he wasn't

867
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 2: Walter Jones, he wasn't Orlando Pates, he wasn't Jonathan Ogden,

868
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 2: he wasn't Willie RoAF.

869
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 3: God, those guys are so good.

870
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 2: And those guys are all Hall of famers.

871
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 3: Man, those guys are so good.

872
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,760
Speaker 2: So I'm going to eliminate those guys. And that gets

873
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:22,240
Speaker 2: down to two pass rushers, Jared Allen and Dwight Freeney.

874
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 2: Dwight Freeney, so Jared Allen's been on the ballot a

875
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 2: couple of extra times. But my guess is a guy

876
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 2: you've talked to me about over and over again, the

877
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,400
Speaker 2: biggest nightmare. And I believe the committee. I know they

878
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 2: all listen to the show and they've heard you many

879
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 2: times talk about because I've asked you, who was Dwight?

880
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 3: Not even the question.

881
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 2: He was a nightmare?

882
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 3: Brother, it is, brother, were a nightmare. Now.

883
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 2: I got to know Dwight when he came back to

884
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:51,760
Speaker 2: San Diego.

885
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 4: Super guy, great.

886
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 2: Guy, a lot of fun. But I'm gonna I'm gonna

887
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:04,360
Speaker 2: go with freemy slide edge there. Obviously he's got the

888
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,320
Speaker 2: Super Bowl with the Colts, so he checks all the boxes.

889
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 2: So that's that's my prediction. I'm going to predict Julius Peppers,

890
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 2: Devin Hester, Patrick Willis, Andre Johnson, and Dwight Freemy. I'll

891
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 2: bet I get at least three of those. I hope,

892
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 2: so maybe four.

893
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 3: I hope never.

894
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 2: I'm never. I'm never five for five. But I know

895
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,319
Speaker 2: that is my prediction right there.

896
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 3: I hope it's Dre.

897
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,959
Speaker 2: I mean, Gates, Gates is tough, but I keep thinking

898
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 2: they're going to pass on Gates. I don't know why

899
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 2: it is. Well you say it, why, Well, I gave

900
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,960
Speaker 2: you two reasons why. Because I don't think that they

901
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 2: look at him in the and they don't hold tight

902
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 2: ends at the same level some of the other positions

903
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 2: they don't. I don't. I don't think they're gonna look

904
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 2: at him as first but he probably will make it

905
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:58,919
Speaker 2: next year, but not first ballot. Tell everybody why Dwight

906
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 2: Freeney was a Hall of Famer.

907
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 3: DWIGHTE.

908
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 4: Freeingy was the perfect combination of speed and power. Early

909
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 4: in his career, he was all speed, speed, speed speed,

910
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 4: Get you a field spin underneath, get you a field

911
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 4: spin underneath, Go inside, spin outside, Okay, I'm a basketball player.

912
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:29,440
Speaker 3: I could take speed.

913
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 4: What happens with speed is it doesn't allow you to

914
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,600
Speaker 4: stay down and ground yourself.

915
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 3: As an offensive tackle.

916
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 4: You have to be up in light on your feet

917
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 4: to be able to change direction with him.

918
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 3: I'll never forget. And I had played against d White.

919
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 4: You know, five six times the speed speed speed speed speed.

920
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 4: We have hilatious battles out there, one on one whole game.

921
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,719
Speaker 4: And I remember we were in I think I was

922
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 4: playing in Jacksonville and we went to Indianapolis and with

923
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 4: the crowd noise in him brother and I remember I

924
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 4: sat out on him and he was rushing up Phield.

925
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 4: He took two steps and he turned and put his

926
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:24,399
Speaker 4: helmet down. It hit me right in the chest. All

927
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 4: I saw was stadium lights.

928
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 2: I saw Timber.

929
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 4: I just saw stadium lights and then the quarterback's foot

930
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 4: and I said, oh my god, threw me off the

931
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 4: whole game.

932
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 2: Do you talk to him, like, what was that?

933
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 4: I talked to him after the game. Yeah, I said, bro,

934
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 4: what was that?

935
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:44,479
Speaker 3: He said?

936
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 4: My coach had sat down with me and we watched

937
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:52,759
Speaker 4: every game I ever played against you, and I never

938
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,959
Speaker 4: got in a sack against you. And he said, you've

939
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 4: done everything except power. So that's all we worked on,

940
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 4: and it changed everything. Asked Jonathan Notnton, asked all the greats.

941
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 4: His speed to power was better than anybody's in the league,

942
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 4: hands down. So what he did was he made you

943
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,279
Speaker 4: start guessing is it speed? Is it power? And he's

944
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 4: too fast for you to guess. He's too fast for

945
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,360
Speaker 4: you to guess, and he's he made it up. He

946
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 4: made it his job to make you guess wrong. That's

947
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:31,800
Speaker 4: how quick we remember. It's the safety at Syracuse, right,

948
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,319
Speaker 4: it was a safety turned into a defensive end with

949
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:41,720
Speaker 4: safety speed, and it just made you uncomfortable.

950
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 3: It made you uncomfortable the whole game.

951
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 4: Normally, when you're playing out there at tackle, you can

952
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,320
Speaker 4: go sixty plays.

953
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 3: You be uncomfortable twenty.

954
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,800
Speaker 4: Being uncomfortable for sixty plays or fifty five plus plays

955
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 4: makes for an awfully long evening.

956
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 2: Well, if I'm right, can you imagine having bookend Peppers

957
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,919
Speaker 2: and Freemy? How'd you like to go against that defensive friend?

958
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 4: No, and I've gone against both of them.

959
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, those are high level. I believe Peppers is an automatic,

960
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 2: absolute automatic. All right, that's my prediction. I don't think

961
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,879
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've ever gotten five for five,

962
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 2: but I think my guesses are pretty good. Right now,

963
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 2: we'll see how close we get. We're gonna get back

964
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 2: to the big game, the forty nine Ers and the

965
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 2: Chiefs and why this is the best possible matchup for

966
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 2: this year's Super Bowl. This is Fox Football Saturday, Steve

967

976
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame predictions come true. See how good I

977
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 2: did there? All Right? So, I know a lot of

978
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 2: people when the Chiefs especially won, it was like ugh,

979
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 2: which is basically what we used to get with the Patriots.

980
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 6: Right.

981
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 2: I've always said this about team sports individual sports. I

982
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 2: think all sports are better when you have a dominant team.

983
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 2: When you have one team or one individual dominating a

984
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 2: sport like Tiger Woods didn't golf, or you know Roger

985
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,800
Speaker 2: Feeder and tennis, or you know a Martine or Serena Williams,

986
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,920
Speaker 2: something like that, when you have it on the team situation.

987
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 2: Same thing you know back in the sixties when the

988
00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 2: Celtics and UCLA were dominating in the basketball world as

989
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 2: much as we at the Celtics.

990
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 3: I'm not sure about they see.

991
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you it gives the sport an identity

992
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 2: and it gives the sports something to shoot at. So

993
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: this is going to be the fourth Chiefs Super Bowl

994
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,879
Speaker 2: in the last five years. The Super Bowl that did

995
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 2: not have the Chiefs was the Rams and Bengals. I'm

996
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 2: sorry unless you're a Rams fan or a Bengals fan.

997
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:34,160
Speaker 2: That was a pretty forgetable Super Bowl close game. It's

998
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,800
Speaker 2: embarrassing for the Rams because way more Bengal fans showed

999
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,399
Speaker 2: up at SOFI Stadium the Rams fans. But that is sucke.

1000
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 2: We remember the Super Bowls that the Patriots are in,

1001
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 2: especially remember those that they lost, losing to the Giants

1002
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 2: twice and Eli Manning and then Nick Foles. Nick Foles

1003
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 2: beat Tom Brady and he was the difference in that

1004
00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:01,399
Speaker 2: game and Doug Peterson out to Bill Belichick that day.

1005
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:02,399
Speaker 3: Yep.

1006
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 2: So to me, it's a really good thing to have

1007
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,640
Speaker 2: the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. And I'm not a

1008
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 2: Chiefs fan by any stretch of the imagination. I appreciate

1009
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 2: what they do. I'm just not rooting. Okay, So there

1010
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 2: are now theories out there that this whole thing's been rigged.

1011
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 2: These are these are the outsiders. These are people that

1012
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,120
Speaker 2: are on the outside and have no stake in the

1013
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 2: NFL at all.

1014
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 3: There was a lot of money to be made.

1015
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:35,239
Speaker 2: Because we have a presidential election year, and the reports

1016
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,400
Speaker 2: are that President Biden is trying to get an endorsement

1017
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 2: from her and that the Chiefs are destined to win,

1018
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 2: so that she's literally going to be like on camera

1019
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 2: after the Chiefs win the Super Bowl saying vote for

1020
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 2: President Biden. This is how absurd this whole thing is.

1021
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 2: Or the fact that Travis Kelsey is going to get

1022
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 2: down on a knee after the game, remember the Boise

1023
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:06,360
Speaker 2: State player Ken Johnson, No, he's going to actually propose

1024
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 2: to her national tease. These are the theories that are

1025
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,800
Speaker 2: being thrown out there by people that absolutely have no idea.

1026
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 2: I will say this, I don't really care about her

1027
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,600
Speaker 2: one way or the other, but she will have zero

1028
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 2: impact on this game. I agree, zero, whether they win,

1029
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 2: whether they lose. Taylor Swift is not accountable one way

1030
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 2: or the other, so we can leave her out of

1031
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 2: the equation as far as this game is concerned. Though, again,

1032
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get the visuals. Sometimes you get a

1033
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 2: visual on a game, and I'm trying to visualize Brock

1034
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 2: Party consoling Travis. Excuse me, hold on, I've just been

1035
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 2: handing the notes here. I'm just I'm trying to vision

1036
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:02,960
Speaker 2: Brock Purty consoling Patrick Mahomes after beating him in the

1037
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 2: Super Bowl.

1038
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 3: Wouldn't be great.

1039
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 2: I can't get that visual in my head. I would

1040
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 2: love to me that doesn't register. I see Mahomes being

1041
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 2: gracious to Brock Party, saying your day will come. You

1042
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 2: got a kid, You got a kid. Exactly. That to

1043
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 2: me is because again when Tom Brady was seeing Mahomes

1044
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 2: after you know, the Bucks blew out the cheese. Yeah,

1045
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 2: don't worry, You'll have plenty of opportunities. This was probably

1046
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 2: my last ehrah. That one made sense. What doesn't make

1047
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 2: sense to me in this game. Is Brock Purty walking

1048
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 2: over to Mahomes Saint, Gee, man, I you know you're

1049
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,520
Speaker 2: You're still the greatest, you know. I don't see that happening.

1050
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 2: I don't know how you could bet against Mahomes in

1051
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 2: this game.

1052
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 4: It's hard to bet against Mahomes unless you're a Niner fan.

1053
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 4: And look, I'm pulling for Brock because I love the story.

1054
00:58:55,760 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 4: I love mister irrelevant being also relevant. I love him

1055
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 4: being the story. I love the guy making the least

1056
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 4: amount of money winning the super Bowl and being the

1057
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 4: super Bowl MVP. To me, as a writer in Hollywood,

1058
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 4: that's a hell of a story. I want to see that.

1059
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 4: I want to go to that movie. I hope his

1060
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 4: parents give me the rights to his story.

1061
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 2: If Brock Purty beats Patrick Mahomes, where does his star

1062
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 2: power go?

1063
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:36,720
Speaker 4: What do we do with brock Purty? What are you

1064
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:41,760
Speaker 4: talking about? What do we do with Tom Brady?

1065
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 2: But that was a different time.

1066
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.

1067
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:46,280
Speaker 2: I mean the two thousand and one season, in the

1068
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three season, or light years apart.

1069
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 3: I get it.

1070
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,880
Speaker 2: In this day and age, brock Purty beats Patrick Mahomes.

1071
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 4: After thoughts are after thoughts who did Tom Brady be?

1072
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,840
Speaker 4: You see what I'm saying. Yeah, this is how you

1073
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 4: start your legacy.

1074
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 3: This is how you do it.

1075
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:13,040
Speaker 4: Nobody thought Tom Brady was going to be what he became.

1076
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 4: The crazy thing. The difference between Tom Brady and Patrick

1077
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:24,320
Speaker 4: Mahomes is everyone can see it in Patrick Mahomes, No

1078
01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:28,680
Speaker 4: one saw it in Tom Brady. No one sees it

1079
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:34,160
Speaker 4: in Brock Party. They're more like than Mahomes and Brady are.

1080
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 4: That's what I've been trying to get people to understand.

1081
01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 4: Tom Brady and Brock Purdy are more like and have

1082
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 4: more in common than Mahomes and Brady. So when people

1083
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 4: were like, oh well this, and oh well that, or

1084
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 4: he can't do this and he can't do that, I don't.

1085
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:56,640
Speaker 3: Remember all of that.

1086
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 4: They were talking about Tom Brady, who ends up and

1087
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 4: then to be the greatest quarterback to ever play. Hmm,

1088
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 4: but we can heat praise over here. But this kid

1089
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,600
Speaker 4: is basically doing something no one's ever done.

1090
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:13,240
Speaker 2: Right and again, one Brady. When people talk about Tom

1091
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 2: Brady as the goat, and the record speaks for itself.

1092
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,800
Speaker 2: Ten super Bowls, seven wins.

1093
01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 3: Ten, that's crazy. Ten got to start gotta start with one.

1094
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 2: But they say he didn't have the strongest arm. He

1095
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 2: certainly wasn't the best athletes, wasn't Did.

1096
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 3: You see brock Party take off and use his legs

1097
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:32,880
Speaker 3: last week?

1098
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 2: I just go back to twenty eight to three against

1099
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,960
Speaker 2: the Falcons. You know what, I'll never forget about that

1100
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:42,360
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. So they're down nineteen and they kick a

1101
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:46,080
Speaker 2: field goal and I was like, what the hell is that?

1102
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 2: So it's like, well, then it's a two score game.

1103
01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:50,400
Speaker 2: I go, you're down sick. I guess technically, yeah, if

1104
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,640
Speaker 2: you were to get I don't know, two touchdowns and

1105
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,040
Speaker 2: two two boy conversion, which they did, which exactly what

1106
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 2: they did, and then went and overtime.

1107
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 3: Hey man, I bet Kyle Shannan will make that mistake again.

1108
01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 2: The knock on rock Party was is that most of

1109
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 2: his games early on were forty nine or blowouts, So

1110
01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 2: so he hadn't proven himself and yet in this well,

1111
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 2: let me ask.

1112
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 3: You this, Let me ask you this.

1113
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, did they have the same team that Trey Lance

1114
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:17,800
Speaker 4: was quarterbacking?

1115
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:18,360
Speaker 1: Yes?

1116
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 3: Did they have the same team that Jimmy Garoppolo's quarterback?

1117
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 1: Yes?

1118
01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:22,800
Speaker 3: So what are we talking about here?

1119
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 4: This kid did knocked into the driver's seat and it

1120
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:28,919
Speaker 4: became a completely different team.

1121
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,800
Speaker 2: He is engineered to come from behind victories in this postseason.

1122
01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:36,640
Speaker 4: I'm going back to last postseason when he was on

1123
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,880
Speaker 4: that seven game run, right, seven in a row until

1124
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 4: he got hurt in the the NFC Championship game, right,

1125
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,880
Speaker 4: which in my opinion, he was going to annihilate Philadelphia.

1126
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 4: So all we've seen these kids do in twenty six

1127
01:02:55,200 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 4: games is win twenty one of them. Okay, that to

1128
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,440
Speaker 4: me sounds like a hell of a start to a career.

1129
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:08,320
Speaker 4: And it's not like he's dinking and duncan look at

1130
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:08,880
Speaker 4: his numbers.

1131
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:10,920
Speaker 3: He can throw the ball down the field.

1132
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,240
Speaker 2: And by the way he ran in this game, biggest

1133
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 2: plays for him in that game.

1134
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,720
Speaker 3: Again, Lamar didn't he did?

1135
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 2: He did? He ever ran over one gay s that one.

1136
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:23,920
Speaker 2: He put his head down.

1137
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:28,400
Speaker 4: Why guess why? Because it meant something. He wants it.

1138
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 2: And that's how Mahomes is. Mahomes runs with purpose. That's it, man,

1139
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:34,800
Speaker 2: not just he runs for first downs.

1140
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,400
Speaker 4: Look, this is gonna be It's gonna be a great game.

1141
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:42,240
Speaker 4: Both have great top top five defenses this year, both

1142
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:48,160
Speaker 4: have prolific offensive weapons. It's just going to be a

1143
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 4: great game.

1144
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 2: I agree with you, and I think ultimately it was

1145
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 2: the best possible Super Bowl matchup. I agree, the defending

1146
01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 2: Super Bowl champion Chiefs against a forty nine er team

1147
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:00,360
Speaker 2: that may have been there a year ago. He doesn't

1148
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 2: go down with that injury getting Eagles.

1149
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 3: I can't wait to see it.

1150
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what's trending right now. I

1151
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 2: don't know if he's as excited as we are about

1152
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl matchup. Do you really care Beefin about

1153
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers versus the Chiefs. I don't really care.

1154
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:16,360
Speaker 2: I really don't.

1155
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 6: You know. I am an NFL fan free agent. We've

1156
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 6: talked about this, being that I'm from San Diego and

1157
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:22,280
Speaker 6: the team that used to be there.

1158
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:25,440
Speaker 2: I'm going to get you're sort of spoiling it because

1159
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 2: I didn't get a chance to talk to him about

1160
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,240
Speaker 2: Harbaugh last week. So we're going to get into that

1161
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,440
Speaker 2: because Harbaugh has made some very bold statements.

1162
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 6: Well did you know the statement that he made as

1163
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 6: a quarterback for then San Diego Chargers see and Ryan

1164
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,760
Speaker 6: Leaf that one year went one and fifteen together.

1165
01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 2: I think that was the two thousand season. Yeah, So

1166
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 2: I was in San Diego and Harbaugh joined the team,

1167
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,520
Speaker 2: so he came in in ninety nine, the year after

1168
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 2: Leaf's rookie year, they had a fill in because Leif

1169
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:53,040
Speaker 2: was hurt and he actually was like a five hundred

1170
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 2: quarterback that year, didn't play poorly. But then the next

1171
01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 2: year they started the season with Leaf because they were

1172
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:01,360
Speaker 2: committed to him. He was then they brought in Harbor.

1173
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 2: He lost five straight games and those are the last

1174
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:07,200
Speaker 2: five games he ever played in the NFL. One in fifteen,

1175
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 2: and then two years later got hired as a assistant

1176
01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,120
Speaker 2: coach with the Raiders and the rest of hisstory.

1177
01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then he went to University of San Diego

1178
01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:16,320
Speaker 6: and Stanford, and yeah, absolutely, well, he's made it a

1179
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 6: bigger deal with all of his success in college as

1180
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 6: a coach. But when it comes to a guy going

1181
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:24,600
Speaker 6: down injury wise, you guys are mentioning that just moments ago,

1182
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 6: Bowl superstar Zach Lavine he is going to be undergoing

1183
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:30,480
Speaker 6: season ending surgery on his right foot, so he should

1184
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 6: be out about four to six months. Joelle Embiid, according

1185
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:37,640
Speaker 6: to reports, as that displaced flap of the meniscus in

1186
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:41,920
Speaker 6: his left knee. He's considering rest, rehab or surgery so

1187
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 6: there are two different options there for him. As far

1188
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 6: as the NFL is concerned. The Dolphins finalized Anthony Weaver

1189
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 6: as their defensive coordinator. Cliff Kingsbury could be on the

1190
01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 6: top list for the Washington Commanders in regards to their

1191
01:05:55,160 --> 01:06:00,040
Speaker 6: offensive coordinator vacancy. He essentially did the audible to the

1192
01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 6: Las Vegas Raiders, saying that he verbally agreed essentially to

1193
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 6: be their OC and then pulled out, And reports are

1194
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 6: suggesting that there was a contract dispute between Kingsbury and

1195
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 6: Las Vegas, and rumor could be that Chip Kelly could

1196
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 6: fill in that role as the Vegas OC now that

1197
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:19,920
Speaker 6: the opportunity is open, and considering that he also has

1198
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:24,200
Speaker 6: had two interviews with the team in the last few days.

1199
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:27,560
Speaker 6: As far as what is going on in college shoots

1200
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,960
Speaker 6: Number one Yukon with a big win on Fox Television

1201
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 6: earlier today against Saint John's seventy seven to sixty four

1202
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 6: to the final score. How about Hunter Dickinson going off

1203
01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 6: for Kansas.

1204
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,720
Speaker 2: Don't do the run clock, but definitely a great shot offense.

1205
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 6: SAYJ at the top, I go four to shoot inside

1206
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:51,400
Speaker 6: Dicketts a turn shoots headed again one a day offensively

1207
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 6: for Hunter Dickinson down twenty points, put a big fella

1208
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:58,440
Speaker 6: on Kansas Jayack radio now where he had finished with

1209
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 6: those twenty points. Is number eight eight Kansas at home

1210
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,880
Speaker 6: holds off Number four Houston seventy eight to sixty five.

1211
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,240
Speaker 6: A home win for San Diego State against number seventeen

1212
01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:10,120
Speaker 6: Utah State eighty one to sixty seven. Victories for number

1213
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 6: nine Marquette over Georgetown ninety one to fifty seven. Also

1214
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:16,800
Speaker 6: playing on in front of us right now from Chapel Hill,

1215
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 6: a battle of two top ten teams.

1216
01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 2: What rivals they are?

1217
01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 6: Number seven Duke is down by ten against number three

1218
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:26,120
Speaker 6: to North Carolina forty five to thirty five. And Armando

Speaker 6: Baycott for UNC has twelve points and eight rebounds in

1220
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 6: the first half and that would include three offensive rebounds.

1221
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,560
Speaker 6: And then lastly, we do have two different things happening

1222
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 6: in the world of golf, including Jaukee Neeman firing at

1223

1225
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 6: John Rahm, of course making the move over from the

1226
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:55,200
Speaker 6: PGA Tour and speaking of the PGA Tour, Wyndam Clark

1231
01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:10,960

01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,599
Speaker 2: amongst the eight new coaches, so I think that's certainly

1243
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 2: a positive. How shocked were you about the Raheem Morris

1244
01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:51,080
Speaker 2: hiring in Atlanta, knowing that Belichick had interviewed twice for

1245
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 2: that job.

1246
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,200
Speaker 3: I wasn't that shocked. I think.

1247
01:08:56,600 --> 01:09:00,559
Speaker 4: The way Belichick ended in New England, they gave a

1248
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:03,680
Speaker 4: lot of people paus. The league has changed. Like we

1249
01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 4: started this whole show off talking about you know, change

1250
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,759
Speaker 4: is inevitable and you need to roll with the tides.

1251
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,960
Speaker 4: You no longer have an eight track in your car, right.

1252
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:22,040
Speaker 4: I don't see Bill Belichick being able to change, to

1253
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 4: be able to relate, and like he lost the locker

1254
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 4: room in New England.

1255
01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:30,080
Speaker 3: I mean that seems almost impossible to say.

1256
01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 4: Now.

1257
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:34,040
Speaker 2: You know his argument would be why should I change?

1258
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 2: Look at my resume.

1259
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,519
Speaker 4: Exactly, And I don't know if organizations are going to

1260
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 4: be okay with that, especially at that price tag. So

1261
01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:45,240
Speaker 4: what you don't want to do is alienate the locker

1262
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:49,759
Speaker 4: room because I mean, number one, that money is guaranteed

1263
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:56,519
Speaker 4: for coaches, and you can't run off the young talent.

1264
01:09:56,720 --> 01:10:00,320
Speaker 4: Atlanta's a vibrant, young hip town. They have a DJ

1265
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:04,680
Speaker 4: at halftime, they have performances at halftime, like it's a

1266
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:05,160
Speaker 4: lot of.

1267
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,479
Speaker 3: Energy in Atlanta. It just didn't seem like it fit.

1268
01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,759
Speaker 2: I didn't understand why he was honestly interested in that job. Obviously,

1269
01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:13,760
Speaker 2: the quarterbacks.

1270
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 3: Situation, I think he was interested in a job.

1271
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 2: A job is the only interview he had. And again

1272
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,600
Speaker 2: he is trying to chase down Don Shula as the

1273
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,880
Speaker 2: winningest coach in the history of the NFL. That is

1274
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 2: very important to him. The biggest hire was one that

1275
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:29,439
Speaker 2: right here on Fox Sports Radio, I said it was

1276
01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:32,679
Speaker 2: going to happen the day that Brandon Staley and Tom

1277
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 2: Telesco were fired. There would only be one choice, fit,

1278
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,400
Speaker 2: one choice, and the league was going to make sure

1279
01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 2: it happened. How many times have you seen a team

1280
01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:50,040
Speaker 2: hire a coach before hiring a general manager. It is rare,

1281
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:54,840
Speaker 2: very very rare. Chargers did because the league made him

1282
01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:59,880
Speaker 2: pay the price for the one guy they could hire

1283
01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,759
Speaker 2: that would actually move the needle mark in a city

1284
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:07,080
Speaker 2: like Los Angeles. They need this LA market to respond

1285
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 2: to the Chargers because they are a non entity in

1286
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,080
Speaker 2: the city. And we know because we're here they are

1287
01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,680
Speaker 2: a complete non entity. Even with Justin Herbert as their quarterback.

1288
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:18,960
Speaker 2: That will change with Jim Harbor. The question is how

1289
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,439
Speaker 2: long is it going to take people seem to forget

1290
01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 2: all these last three years? Have we forgotten the first

1291
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:28,200
Speaker 2: six years that Jim Harbo went to Michigan one Bowl

1292
01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:29,920
Speaker 2: Game O and six against the.

1293
01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:33,439
Speaker 3: Highest didn't have a quarterback though, right they have one.

1294
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 2: Now, But they need so much more. They got more

1295
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 2: million over the cat.

1296
01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:37,719
Speaker 3: They got a quarterback.

1297
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:39,639
Speaker 2: They got to cut loose a lot of players.

1298
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:40,639
Speaker 3: Well, they have a quarterback.

1299
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:42,160
Speaker 2: How long is it going to take? By the way,

1300
01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:44,640
Speaker 2: Jim Harbo has made a couple of statements. One he

1301
01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:47,639
Speaker 2: expects to win multiple championships with the Chargers, and two

1302
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 2: he believes his Michigan quarterback JJ McCarthy will be the

1303
01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:54,679
Speaker 2: first quarterback selected in this year's draft.

1304
01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 4: Well, look, I know what he's doing. JJ McCarthy got

1305
01:11:57,720 --> 01:11:59,160
Speaker 4: him a national championship.

1306
01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 2: Only we'll lost one game at Michigan.

1307
01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 3: Right, lost one game. So he's trying to help him.

1308
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 4: I mean, the Chargers are in a position to get him,

1309
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:08,040
Speaker 4: so it doesn't it doesn't doesn't matter. He's trying to

1310
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,960
Speaker 4: help his draft draft stop, which is what you want.

1311
01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:14,639
Speaker 4: You want someone that you care about the care abouts

1312
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:16,559
Speaker 4: you to try to help you as much as they can.

1313
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:18,120
Speaker 3: And that's what he's doing, all right.

1314
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,800
Speaker 2: So Harbaugh has had an incredible record everywhere he has gone.

1315
01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:22,479
Speaker 3: He's a winner.

1316
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 2: He knows how to take losers and make them winners.

1317
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:27,879
Speaker 2: It's a little longer than some people were comfortable with Michigan,

1318
01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:31,120
Speaker 2: but Ultimately he got the job done. But as I

1319
01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 2: said on my Twitter slash x account, overcoming the Spanels

1320
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:37,920
Speaker 2: curse is going to be the greatest challenge of Jim

1321
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,360
Speaker 2: Harbaugh's coaching career. There's a lot to be said why

1322
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,160
Speaker 2: certain organizations are perennial losers, and the Chargers are in

1323
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:47,400
Speaker 2: that list. The Jets. I mean, but we saw de

1324
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 2: tried all right. I mean it didn't seem possible. They'd

1325
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:52,719
Speaker 2: gone through a lot of coaches and all of a sudden,

1326
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 2: Dan Campbell shows up. Should be in the Supers.

1327
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:58,040
Speaker 3: Sometimes you just need the right guy.

1328
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:01,599
Speaker 2: But the question is are they going to cooperate with him?

1329
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:03,639
Speaker 2: They just seem to get in there a way.

1330
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 4: With the money that they're going to pay him, they

1331
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 4: have no choice. And that's the great part. Yes, we

1332
01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,320
Speaker 4: know how frugal they are as a family.

1333
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:13,760
Speaker 2: He's making I'll put it this way, probably double what

1334
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 2: Mike McCoy, Anthony Lynn, and Brandon Staley may combined.

1335
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,600
Speaker 3: So what I'm saying is you have no choice but

1336
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 3: to be patient.

1337
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:21,479
Speaker 2: They have to be patient.

1338
01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 3: Is it? They're not gonna eat the salary?

1339
01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 2: Okay, So you're a member of the Southern California community, yes.

1340
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:27,639
Speaker 3: I am.

1341
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 2: One thing that Jim Harbaugh understands about this market, and

1342
01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 2: he said it in his press conference. It's not winning

1343
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 2: a championship. To register in this market. You would need

1344
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 2: to win multiple championships.

1345
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta get people used to come into like

1346
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:48,880
Speaker 4: that's why the Lakers are the Lakers, right, it became

1347
01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:51,280
Speaker 4: a thing. Yes, right, the Clippers can win all these

1348
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:53,760
Speaker 4: regular season like I didn't. I don't care about the Clippers, man,

1349
01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:55,280
Speaker 4: come on, yeah, what are you talking about?

1350
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 2: Even if the Clippers win a championship, but it's not

1351
01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:03,400
Speaker 2: going to change anything. You have to win a lot

1352
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:08,640
Speaker 2: consent year after year after year. If the Chargers can

1353
01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:10,720
Speaker 2: get on a roll like the Chiefs are on right

1354
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:16,040
Speaker 2: now or the Patriots are, well, you, he'll change everything.

1355
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 2: I'm anxious to see how he's going to get it done.

1356
01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:20,639
Speaker 3: I'm excited, all right.

1357
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:23,320
Speaker 2: On the other side, we're gonna have some predictions on

1358
01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:27,240
Speaker 2: this show about a game that's still eight days away.

Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to just push through that, guys,

1366
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 3: just push past it.

1367
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:54,200

Speaker 3: You go?

1382
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:34,000
Speaker 2: Lorena? Especially today we're in a building that has no power, there's.

1383
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:34,360
Speaker 3: No lights on.

1384
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:36,320
Speaker 2: I'm not going to tell you how many bags of

1385
01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:38,800
Speaker 2: the chips I've eaten so far. So they brought in

1386
01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 2: these chips. It was a box of donuts as well.

1387
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 2: That was donuts two, did you well? Nothing no better

1388
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 2: combo than chips. And donuts in the dark, in the

1389
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:55,840
Speaker 2: in the dark. Great job by everybody today. All right,

01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:58,719
Speaker 2: So this is a great job by you. Thank you, Okay.

1391
01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:02,160

1395
01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 4: I think that he separates himself from Reggie the man.

1396
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:18,759
Speaker 4: This dude, I was telling you doing the break. Every

1397
01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:20,960
Speaker 4: day he showed up and went to work, worked harder

1398
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,799
Speaker 4: than everybody else, and then went home. He didn't complain,

1399
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:26,160
Speaker 4: he didn't cry, he didn't do any of that. He

1400
01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 4: just worked. And it was evident on.

1401
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:34,040
Speaker 2: The field again, David Carr, Matt Shop, no Peyton Manning,

1402
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 2: no kurb Warner.

1403
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:36,720
Speaker 4: The reason he should really get it is because he

1404
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:42,120
Speaker 4: beat the living crap out of Courtland Finnigin on the

1405
01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:42,800
Speaker 4: field one day.

1406
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,200
Speaker 3: Just that alone should put him in the Hall of Fame.

1407
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 2: All right, Well, we'll see again. That'll be coming up

1408
01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,680
Speaker 2: on Thursday with the NFL Honors Show. The Hall of

1409
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:55,240
Speaker 2: Fame class of twenty twenty four. Excited about that, all right.

1410
01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:58,679
Speaker 2: So we've talked plenty about this matchup between the Chiefs

1411
01:16:58,720 --> 01:16:59,920
Speaker 2: and the forty nine Ers.

1412
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:00,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1413
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:06,320
Speaker 2: Uh, honestly, thanks to John Harbaugh and Dan Campbell. That's

1414
01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:09,320
Speaker 2: why we have this matchup. I'm I'm sorry, job, guys.

1415
01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:13,960
Speaker 2: A bad game plan by John Harbaugh inexplicably against the Chiefs,

1416
01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 2: and some very questionable decisions by Dan Campbell. When you

1417
01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:21,680
Speaker 2: have a two touchdown lead on the.

1418
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 3: Road, people just don't want it.

1419
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:25,679
Speaker 2: So we end up really getting I think the best matchup.

1420
01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:32,479
Speaker 2: The Kyle Shanahan factor. So these teams faced each other

1421
01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:36,320
Speaker 2: four years ago in the Super Bowl and the forty

1422
01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:39,080
Speaker 2: nine Ers were leading this game going into the fourth quarter,

1423
01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:43,879
Speaker 2: and we all remember that that deep ball by Jimmy Garoppolos.

1424
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:45,880
Speaker 4: I just missed it wide open. Guess who's not going

1425
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 4: to miss that?

1426
01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:50,479
Speaker 2: That was the moment that Kyle Shanahan we need job.

1427
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,320
Speaker 2: Letn't say we need a different quarterback.

1428
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 3: And guess who's not going to miss that throw?

1429
01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,760
Speaker 2: So this is this is where it gets tricky. I

1430
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:01,639
Speaker 2: assume this game is going to be a close game.

1431
01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:07,280
Speaker 2: I don't see a shootout because these are two of

1432
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:11,080
Speaker 2: the better defenses out there. So I don't see what

1433
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:13,360
Speaker 2: we saw last year with the Chiefs and the Eagles.

1434
01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 2: I don't see what thirty eight to thirty five something

1435
01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:18,640
Speaker 2: like that. I don't see that. Every time I say that,

1436
01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:20,360
Speaker 2: I'm wrong, But anyway, I'm going to say it again.

1437
01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:23,679
Speaker 2: So this is going to be more of the twenty

1438
01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 2: four to twenty one type game, and so it's going

1439
01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:30,600
Speaker 2: to come up to one of these two quarterbacks to

1440
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:36,880
Speaker 2: engineer the winning drive. Now, conventional wisdom says, then there

1441
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 2: should be no doubt in the outcome of this game

1442
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:43,720
Speaker 2: that would belong to Patrick Mahomes. That we've seen the

1443
01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:47,280
Speaker 2: guy on the other side, Rock Perty. He's pretty good

1444
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:49,160
Speaker 2: do it the last couple of weeks.

1445
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:50,599
Speaker 3: It's pretty good. Man.

1446
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,400
Speaker 2: A lot of times when I super Bowls are done,

1447
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,240
Speaker 2: and most of these Super Bowls I've covered, you know,

1448
01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,519
Speaker 2: and talked to the players leading up to the game,

1449
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:03,679
Speaker 2: I get a certain sense of what the destiny calls

1450
01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:08,040
Speaker 2: for the outcome of this game. Now, again, my gut

1451
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:11,560
Speaker 2: feeling is I would never get bet against Patrick Mahomes.

1452
01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:17,479
Speaker 2: But if Brock Purty leads the forty nine Ers to

1453
01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:24,600
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl championship, that is the best possible outcome

1454
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:30,080
Speaker 2: for the league. Mister irrelevant goodness in a two year

1455
01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:36,439
Speaker 2: span is a Super Bowl champion that serves the league

1456
01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 2: better than Mahomes winning a third Super Bowl. So I

1457
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:46,200
Speaker 2: am saying right now, twenty four twenty one forty nine

1458
01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 2: Ers beat the Chiefs.

1459
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:52,960
Speaker 3: I have it. Thirty one twenty seven forty nine Ers.

1460
01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:55,599
Speaker 2: You're taking the Niners as well.

1461
01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,040
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Niners because I like the story as

1462
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 3: a former seventh round draft pick who played in the

1463
01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:05,559
Speaker 3: Super Bowl his rookie year.

1464
01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:07,360
Speaker 2: Yes, started every game.

1465
01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:10,960
Speaker 4: Started every game. It's only four of us alive that's

1466
01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:18,439
Speaker 4: done that. I want him to finish this story. I

1467
01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,760
Speaker 4: want all the naysayers talking about what he doesn't have

1468
01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:26,160
Speaker 4: and what he doesn't do to realize being the players

1469
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:30,840
Speaker 4: more than that, and I think this young man has

1470
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:35,519
Speaker 4: earned it, and I want to see him really cash

1471
01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:38,439
Speaker 4: in because now I mean, he's making nine hundred grand,

1472
01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:39,519
Speaker 4: eight hundred grand.

1473
01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,880
Speaker 2: Here's the ultimate outcome, the big smiling face of Rock

1474
01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:47,840
Speaker 2: Party and Taylor Swift weeping on the sidelines. This is

1475
01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:51,640
