Speaker 1: of headlines here Bill Steelers, Titans, Chiefs, Packers, Seahawks all undefeated.

13
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,360

Speaker 1: Patriots Chiefs the early game tonight, Falcons Packers the later game.

15
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: We'll dive into those matchups with Peter King. This in

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: from Adam Schefter. No Titans, for the first time in

17
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: seven days have tested positive. That according to Adam Scheff,

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: So for the first time in seven days, the Titans

19
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 1: have had no negative tests this morning, per source. So

20
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: that's Adam Schefter. Although it is is it negative test

21
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: or positive test, because a negative is a positive a

22
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: negative test is a positive for the team, Okay, but

23
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: a positive test is a negative for the team. So

24
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: they've had no positive tests. Yeah, but Adam Schefter says,

25
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: for the first time in seven days? Wait, is this

26
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: even bigger news? For the first time, it's somebody should

27
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: tell Chefty that that's a little confusing. For the first

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: time in seven days, the Titans had no negative tests

29
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: this morning, so nothing happening is huge news. They had

30
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: no negative test tested positively towards the negative. Yes, there's

31
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: a scene in the office where Michael Scott finds out

32
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: that someone tests are negative and it gives him a

33
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: hugging like, I'm so sorry. We're pulling a Michael Scott

34
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: because I'm confused too, Yes, Todd, and doesn't two negatives

35
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: make a positive at least analogebra? Thank you? Todd, of course,

36
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: graduated second in your class even though you cheated, but

37
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: one of the great cheaters of all time. All right.

Speaker 1: Trigger Girls dot Com slash DP show today. I don't

43
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: think Jimmy Butler can single handedly beat the Lakers four

44
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: times in a seven game series, but he came pretty

45
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: close last night. Forty points, thirteen assists, eleven rebounds and

46
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: the kind of finals performance that will remember for quite

47
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: some time. And he's doing it without two starters, two

48
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: key ingredients Gore and Dragitchen Bam out of bio. Butler

49
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: had to do it all, and of course it'll be

50
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: even more special if Miami would somehow win this series,

51
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: which is going to be tough sweating. He had to

52
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: use every ounds of energy last night when they basically

53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 1: are telling him, you got to play every minute. You

54
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: got to go out there and play as long as

55
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: you can. By the way, can you give us an

56
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: offensive boost? And can you guard Lebron? They trailed two

57
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: games to one. They still had the serious injury problems,

58
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: but Butler and the heat answered all the people who

59
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: were saying this was going to be a foregone conclusion,

60
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: and by foregone, fo you are? It was going to

61
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: be a foregone conclusion. With the sweep. The Lakers made

62
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: it look easy through the first two games, and now

63
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: they got a little bit of a fight on their hands,

64
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: because a young team getting confidence is a dangerous team.

65
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: If Gorn, Dragitch and bamount of ioill come back, maybe

66
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: you can steal another game here or two. But Jimmy

67
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: Butler just giving four guys on the court and he'll

68
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: take care of the rest. There was a little bit

69
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: of back and forth there. Lebron in the first quarter

70
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: was talking. He was chirping to Jimmy Butler, and Jimmy

71
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: had this to say about that encounter. First, I just

72
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: wanted to clarify. It looked like you said you're in trouble.

73
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: Is that what you said? I said, Okay, we not go.

74
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: Gublem just out there talking. Try was nine. Bron said

75
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: to me at the end of the first that's what happened.

76
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: I just said it to him in the fourth quarter.

77
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: That's great. Lebron said it to him in the first quarter.

78
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler in the fourth quarter said you're in trouble.

79
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: Here's Lebron James on Jimmy Butler. I thought Jimmy was phenomenal.

80
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: You know, he did everything that they needed for him

81
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: to do to night, and he came through a big

82
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: time in a big time game. One of the best

83
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: competitors that we have in our game. We love that

84
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: opportunity except for me person, I don't know how many

85
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: more opportunities on the havel. So you know, to be

86
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: able to go against the first competitor, Like, that's something

87
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: I'll look back on when I'm down playing. But like

88
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: I missed those moments. Yeah, they also missed a ton

89
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: of threes last night. Anthony Davis has to take more

90
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: than nine shots in thirty three minutes and shoot more

91
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: than two free throws. Miami did a good job. But

92
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: here's the problem. The Lakers fell in love with the

93
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: three point shot. Here's your stat, Mark Keith Morris attempted

94
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: more three pointers eleven than Anthony Davis at to total

95
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: shots last night. Nine stead of the day, stat of

96
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: the day, that past stat of the day, stat of

97
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: the day? Here comes that what stat of the day? Yeah,

98
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: you can get forty point triple double, but you also

99
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: have to have a little bit of help. And I

100
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: thought that even though Lebron had a pretty good night,

101
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: a little bit sloppy at times, Jimmy Butler's guarding Lebron

102
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: and try not to switch on these pick and rolls.

103
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: But that's what it was. Jimmy Butler doesn't switch when

104
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: he's guarding Lebron. But what the Heat were able to

105
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: do is they would get these switches and then Jimmy

106
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: Butler could take advantage of that. I know, it's only

107
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 1: one game, and Jimmy Butler has been marvelous in the bubble.

108
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 1: Even if the Lakers win this, I still look at

109
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler and I'll look at him differently than I

110
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: ever have, because you know, he was a great story

111
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: in Chicago. Of course, you know, he hated dealing with

112
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: those younger players in Minnesota who didn't want to listen

113
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: to him, and here he has a team where they

114
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: listen to him. You know, they want to impress Jimmy Butler.

115
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: And you saw that last night. I mean, Kelly O'linnick Tyler, Hero,

116
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: those guys stepping up. It's an interesting roster that they

117
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: put together here. But if Goren drag, you gotta have

118
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: bam Adebayo there. But if you had goreon drag, then

119
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: this can be extended to maybe six games, maybe seven.

120
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: And I felt I thought that from the beginning that

121
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: Miami could take two games here. But you have nineteen turnovers,

122
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: you're not hitting your three point shots, and Lebron, stay

123
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: on the court now ten seconds to go, when you

124
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: walk off the court, Come on, you're better than that.

125
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: All the game's over you no, stay, just stay. You

126
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: know what, after that game and you're not catching a flight,

127
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: don't walk off the court. If anything, why don't you

128
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: just with ten seconds to go, make your way over

129
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: to Jimmy Butler and just give him a nod and say, hey,

130
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: that's one of congrats that that was a great performance.

131
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: It's one of the great performances in finals history, and

132
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: it came at a pivotal time. You're down two games

133
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: to none, and I wonder. You know, Jerry West won

134
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: the MVP and back in the late sixties the Lakers

135
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: lost to the Celtics in the finals, Jerry was the MVP.

136
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: He was that great. Not that Jimmy Butler is going

137
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: to get any consideration, but I hope he does if

138
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: he continues to play this kind of basketball and they're

139
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: asking him to basically play every minute and play both

140
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: ends of the floor. But you know, you know where

141
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: I stand. I've said this from the outset and the

142
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: bubble when the playoffs started. If Anthony Davis is the

143
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: best player on the floor, the Lakers will win the title.

144
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: He wasn't around last night. That can't happen. All right,

145
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: best awards for the weekend. We'll get to your phone

146
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: calls coming up once again. We got a double header tonight,

147
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: Patriots Chiefs that's the early game, and then the Falcons

148
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: and the Packers. Patriots with Brian Hoyer as you're starting quarterback.

149
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: Not exactly the tune in factor that we had hoped for.

150
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: You can sell tonight Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl

151
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: champion Chiefs facing another quarterback and the Patriots tonight on

152
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: CBS tonight, Patrick Mahomes v. Brian Hoyer. That's where you

153
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: show the graphic where it's like Patrick Mahomes and then

154
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: you had Cam Newton, but then you cross him out

155
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: and put it put in a little picture of Brian Hoyer. There.

156
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: At least give me Jarrett Stidham, give me something, all right,

157
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: mclove And what kind of poll questions do we have? Okay,

158
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: let's start with that Patriots game. Is it fair to

159
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: make the Patriots travel and play on the same day.

160
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: Should they have done this tonight or should they have waited. Okay,

161
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: this is the information I got on this because I

162
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: wonder the same thing. So I check with the source

163
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: with the NFL. I said, couldn't you've done this Tuesday?

164
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: The league didn't want to do this to Kansas City,

165
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: where they would play a Tuesday game, a Sunday game,

166
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: and then they have a Thursday game at Buffalo. They

167
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: would be playing three games in ten days. That's why

168
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: they didn't want to do that. Now there was talk

169
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: that maybe you could have the Thursday game Kansas City

170
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: and Buffalo instead of it going head to head with

171
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: a second Trump Biden debate. If you have that, put

172
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: it on a Friday. But then I was told that

173
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: Fox is paying for Thursday night. They're not paying for

174
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: Friday night, which is usual where you have less viewership there.

175
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: So that's what I learned over the weekend. Yes, mclovin,

176
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: what else? Okay? One quick Lakers heat question? Was Game

177
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: three an operation and the Lakers win the next two?

178
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: Or is this series going the distance? I don't think

179
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: it's going the distance. But if you said Miami gets

180
00:09:54,320 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: another win, while I'll be pleasantly surprised, it's still you know,

181
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: the Lakers. I just want to see. I don't understand

182
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: when somebody says, yeah, we were flat tonight, Like you're

183
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: you're in the you're playing for the championship. Like if

184
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: you know in the first quarter you're you're flat, then

185
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: change it. I don't understand that, Yeah we came out flat.

186
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 1: How does that happen? Nobody? Nobody's excited, enthused? You know,

187
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: are you going through the motions there? If that's the case,

188
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: then Frank Vogel and Lebron James do something about it.

189
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: What else do you have in cloven? He's from probably

190
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: winning team that won't make the playoffs. New England Patriots,

191
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, Indianapolis Cults, Chicago Bears, Bears or La Rams.

192
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 1: Rams have the easiest schedule. They're looking good. Yeah yeah,

193
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: I mean it's not pretty with the Rams, but they're winning. Bears. No,

194
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: they have an easy schedule too. They I mean, you

195
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: know how the Bears trip in the winds we've seen

196
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: this season before. I picked the Browns to make the playoffs,

197
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,439
Speaker 1: but I also picked the Cowboys go to the Super Bowl. Man,

198
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: what did I tell you about the Dallas Cowboys defense?

199
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: McLevin you said, don't be fooled? By the big name.

200
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: They're all overrated the offense, and people said at the

201
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: time with the draft, ceedee lamb, look at you're gonna

202
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: have three receivers that have over a thousand yards this year. Okay,

203
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: are you gonna win? Dak Prescott's gonna throw for six

204
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: thousand yards this year. That's not a good thing because

205
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: you know who normally leads in passing yards, Matthew Stafford,

206
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston. There's a reason why you're throwing for so

207
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: many yards because you're behind. What else do you have? McLevin.

208
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: By the way, I think it's a vander esh and

209
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: Shawn Lee injuries, but you're not buying into that. Shaun

210
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: Lee's always injured. He's that always, Yes, he is always

211
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: my I'm surprised when he plays. It is a little surprising.

212
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: Vanderash is very good and he's there, you know, defensive

213
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 1: captain and gets him in the right alignment and all

214
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: that stuff. Blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, I have

215
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: a poll that's purely for clicks and really doesn't make sense,

216
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: but I want to pitch it anyway. Here's something the

217
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys have allowed one hundred and twenty six points in

218
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: their last three games. That's the most ever allowed in

219
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: a three game period in team history. Stead of the day,

220
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 1: stat of the day, blast out of the day, stat

221
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: of the day, it comes that, what stat of the day.

222
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: The only good thing is they play in a division

223
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: that should be relegated. They should just take the NFC

224
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: East and send it down and then just take the SEC,

225
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: you know, put it in where the NFC East is.

226
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: Just put in four teams from the SEC. I think

227
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: that would be far more entertaining than what we're seeing

228
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: right now. The Giants. No, the Eagles got to win

229
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: last night, which was pretty amazing. I don't I don't

230
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: know how they did it, but they did it somehow.

231
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: Yeahmi club, that was an injury fense. But the Cowboys

232
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: are the most exciting thing in sports right now. Every

233
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: game is that was thrilling yesterday. Every game they're down

234
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: by twenty. Yeah, why do they play like that the

235
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: whole game? Well, because they go against a soft defense

236
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: to prevent defense and then they storm back and make

237
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: an interest. They should be owing four without the you know,

238
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: the gratitude of the Atlanta Falcons, I mean they would

239
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 1: be owen four. Yeah, Paully. The Cowboys were just like this.

240
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: Last year their offense was the number one ranked offense

241
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: and yardage. Last year the numb one ranked offense and yardage.

242
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: This year, their defense is ranked thirtieth. Last year is

243
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: ranked ninth. Yeah, that's the difference here, you know. It's

244
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: I don't need to have a formidable defense. I just

245
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: need to have a little bit of defense. The D

246
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: doesn't even have to be capitalized. It could be a

247
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: small D, but it at least it has to be

248
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: there at some point. It's not possible to be a

249
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: championship caliber team without a defense that that at least

250
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: can come up with stops. Go back to the Chiefs

251
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 1: great offense, and I said, how good will the defense be?

252
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: Because there will be a time when they have to

253
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: make a stop. And you saw that on that last

254
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: drive with Jimmy Garoppolo in the forty nine ers. You

255
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: have to have that. You had a top ten defense

256
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: and you added to your offense. I love Cdee Lamb,

257
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: but I don't like that defense. Because we go to

258
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: Marcus Lord, like their best player was out of football

259
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: for five years. Yes, their best defensive player hasn't played

260
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: in five years. Maybe not because Randy Gregory is supposed

261
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: to be a fire in camp and he's coming back.

262
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, well we'll see how long you Okay, I'm sorry, Yeah,

263
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Okay, I'll give you one. How about I

264
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: take a break. Oh it's so good. Okay? Is it teasable? Because?

265
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: Table for sure? Okay, because look I'm already catching heat

266
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: for my uh Miami Dolphins upset pick over the Seattle seahunk.

267
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: You were right there, you were on the doorstep. I know.

268
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: But here's the thing I forgot. It was October with

269
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick, mister September. And then I looked at the calendar,

270
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: and what was I thinking? It's October. This is why

271
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: I don't bet. This is it? What was the other

272
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: one we were thinking about betting. We were going to

273
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: bet another game, Jets Broncos. I think, just to make

274
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: it interesting. Yeah, I think we and I don't know

275
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: which way we were betting though. I think we were

276
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: taking the Jets to the point. Yeah. I was taking

277
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: the Jets and the points. Oh yeah, wait no, I

278
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: think the Jets ended up being favored in that. Yeah,

279
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: it wasn't pick him. I think when I had them

280
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: they were getting like three and a half and then

281
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: it quickly went down to pick them all right, I

282
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: know how to pick him. Peter King will join us

283

Speaker 1: All Right, mclovin, let's hear the big tas for the

294
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: poll question. Now, it's people stayed in their cars just

295
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: to hear this big teas. It's gonna pay off, isn't no.

296
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: But it's purely for clicks because people want to talk

297
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: about these guys. Okay, I'm gonna let you start your

298
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: team with one of these quarterbacks who's twenty five and under. Now,

299
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes just turned twenty five, like two weeks ago.

300
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: You get Josh Allen twenty four, Lamar Jackson twenty three,

301
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow twenty three, Kyler Murray twenty three. Let's throw

302
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: in Jessin Herbert just to talk about him at twenty two.

303
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: I think it's an interesting poll question because there's part

304
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 1: of us that would probably look at Joe Burrow from

305
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: the standpoint of we're not quite sure yet, but he's

306
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: the first rookie to throw for three hundred yards in

307
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: three consecutive games, and he looked impressive. Herbert is better

308
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: than expected, or you know, an elevated time table here,

309
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: Josh Allen giveth and take it the way like I

310
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: think he can be fantastic. And then I also I

311
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: scream at the TV sometimes with him. Kyler Murray feels

312
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: like two steps forward, two steps back. I mean, he

313
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 1: lost another game. What does Carolina doing? Give credit to

314
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: Matt Roll. I don't know how he's doing it in Carolina,

315
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: but he is pretty pretty impressive. All Right, we'll come

316
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: up with a poll question here. Let's bring in King

317
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: NBC Sports dot Com Columniston. Of course, he must read

318
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: Football Morning in America. Pete, thanks for joining us. The

319
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 1: weirdest thing that happened on the field over the weekend

320
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: was what I would say that the Philadelphia Eagles looked

321
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: like the mid season two thousand and seventeen Philadelphia Eagles,

322
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: not necessarily blowing people out all the time, but competent

323
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: with a good defense and a quarterback that makes enough

324
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: plays to win. And you know, obviously as the season

325
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: went on in twenty seventeen, Carson Wentz got a lot

326
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 1: better than that. But I would say the Eagles coming

327
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: back from their comatose state was the biggest surprise the

328
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: games coming up tonight. I mentioned that I was told that,

329
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: you know, Tuesday wouldn't work because it wouldn't be fair

330
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: to the Chiefs, and I just ran the stats. No

331
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: team has played three games over a ten game span

332
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: since nineteen thirty nine. How much thought was given to

333
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: moving that game to a standalone on Tuesday, Pete, A

334
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: lot of thought was given to that, Dan, And I

335
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 1: think in an ideal world, that's what the NFL would

336
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: have done. It would have given the NFL another day

337
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: of significant prime time space. But I think that out

338
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: of fairness, it just really wasn't fair to the Chiefs.

339
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,239
Speaker 1: And I think the one other thing about all of

340
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 1: this is that people kind of forget too, it wouldn't

341
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: have been all that fair to the Patriots either, just

342
00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, in terms of competition, because

343
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: the Patriots would be coming home at four am Wednesday

344
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,719
Speaker 1: on a very short week to get ready to play Denver,

345
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: and Denver would have had ten days of prep time,

346
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: you know, the Patriots. Even though you can say, wow,

347
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: the Patriots are better, they'll win the game anyway, that's

348
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: not how you look at those things. And so I think,

349
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 1: for all concerned, even though this is going to be

350
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: a very long day for the Patriots, I think it's

351
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 1: the fairest way to go about it. Adam Schefter reported

352
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: that no positive test this morning with the Titans here,

353
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: So I guess we're playing football tonight those two games.

354
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: But then where do we stand with the Titans getting

355
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: ready for Buffalo next week. Well, the Titans to even

356
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: consider opening the facility on Wednesday need to have a

357
00:20:53,840 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: second straight day of good news on their COVID tests

358
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: tomorrow morning. And I think then the NFL will get

359
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: together with the NFLPA and decide if there are if

360
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 1: the facility should be open. I do think there's one

361
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: thing to consider here, Dan, that you know, both the

362
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 1: NFL and the NFLPA went into Nashville last week and

363
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: spent several days looking into how in the world did

364
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: this thing break out the way it did in Nashville

365
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: and nowhere else, what exactly happened. So we don't know

366
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: the answer to that. But as I said in my

367
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 1: column today, one very highly placed league source said to

368
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 1: me last night, it's the Marlins all over again. So

369
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: the NFL has to make absolutely sure that all the

370
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: loopholes that caused that to happen in the first place

371
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: are closed. Yeah. And I also so people bring this up,

372
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: you mentioned it in your column where they're like, hey,

373
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 1: just to push the super Bowl back. It's not that

374
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 1: easy to just push the super Bowl back, you know,

375
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: just to make up a couple of games. But can

376
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: you see a scenario where, you know, the contingency plans

377
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: are we are going to push the super Bowl back? There,

378
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: of course is a scenario where they push the super

379
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: Bowl back, But as I wrote today, there's no you

380
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: can't predict what's going to happen. Here's one scenario that

381
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: was floated to me. Suppose that there are let's say

382
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: six games that need to be played that don't get

383
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: played this year, and let's just say that not a

384
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: single one of them is a win in your end

385
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: playoff scenario, that all it would be was finishing out

386
00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: the season and or maybe having instead of being the

387
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: fifth seed, you're the seventh seed in the playoffs. In

388
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: that case, the NFL almost certainly would not have a

389
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: Week eighteen, you know, on January tenth to replay these games,

390
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: because they really don't mean Whereas if there are six

391
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: games and this is at stake, and a division is

392
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: at stake and all this is at stake, I think

393
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: they would then be more inclined to have a Week eighteam.

394
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: But then you can't answer the question until you're confronted

395
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: with whatever the scenario is, the situation with Cam Newton,

396
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: so he doesn't travel with the team, and then what

397
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: will be how do they evaluate his status then for

398
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: the Denver game, Well, Cam Newton is going to have

399
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: to be negative on multiple consecutive days before he's going

400
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: to be allowed to rejoin the Patriots. And over the

401
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: weekend I heard that that Newton was, you know, was

402
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: you know, either asymptomatic or not showing a lot of

403
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: significant symptoms. If that's the case, and if he is, okay,

404
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: let's just say then you know, he could still show

405
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: that he has that he still has COVID, and so

406
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: he's got to test negative multiple days in a row

407
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: in order to be let back in the building. And

408
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: so I don't know where we are with that, Dan

409
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: and I. In the NFL, because it protects the privacy

410
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: of its employees, you're probably not going to hear anything

411
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: until you hear Hey can and he's back in the building.

412
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: I know you don't deal in speculation. You are fair

413
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: to coaches, but from what you hear though about these

414
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 1: coaches when it comes to Bill O'Brien in Houston or

415
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: Adam Gaze with the Jets. You know, we talk about

416
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: hot seats here. How warm are those seats in those places?

417
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: And maybe any other place around the NFL? I think

418
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 1: probably in order right now, it would be one Gaze

419
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: to Dan Quinn, three, Matt Patricia, and Bill O'Brien probably

420
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: close to being tied. You know, all of those positions

421
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: are in jeopardy. And you know, look, on the one hand,

422
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: you could say that, hey, Bill O'Brien has coached that

423
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: team for six years, he's won four division titles, that's

424
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: as many division titles as the Giants have won in

425
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: this century. So you say, well, geez, you know, give

426
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: him a little bit of rope here, you know, let

427
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: him coach his way out of this. But I think

428
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a weariness in some sectors

429
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: of that organization. And also they haven't gone far in

430
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and he hasn't distinguished himself as a general manager.

431
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: So we'll see. But again, he's got time to get

432
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: out of this. But he's really going to have to

433
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: work his way out of this, and his team is

434
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: going to have to be a lot better than it

435
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: has been so far. Great stuff is always in the column. Peter,

436
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: It's Football Morning in America. Peter King from NBC Sports

437
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: dot Com. Thank you for joining us. Pete, You're welcome. Dan,

438
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: have a good day. All right, we'll settle on a

439
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: pull question, mcklevin, What do you have for me? Okay,

440
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: I kind of want to put that young quarterback poll up,

441
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: unless you want to do which which team that is

442
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: winning now will not make the playoffs? No, dude, the

443
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 1: quarterbacks is interesting. I'm curious what people think because run

444
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: down the list again, because I'm not sure where I

445
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: stand on this, Josh Allen at twenty four, Lamar Jackson

446
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: at twenty three, Joe Burrow at twenty three, Kyler Murray

447
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: at twenty three, Justin Herbert at twenty two, and I

448
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: just added a dark horse Trevor Lawrence at twenty or

449
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 1: is that stupid to put Lawrence? Yeah? Boy, justin Fields

450
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 1: for that matter. Yeah, you can't put them on right now.

451
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson would be the winner of this unless you

452
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: feel like, wait for you or for the Paul. I

453
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: think the poll. I think so. But as I told you,

454
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 1: a source told me, A scout told me last week

455
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: that he still wasn't all in on Lamar Jackson because

456
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: he thinks that Lamar is a great quarterback when they're

457
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: front runners, when they're leading, he's a great quarterback. It's

458
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: he wants to see him, uh you know ben ten points,

459
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: two touchdowns and come back and win those games like

460
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: that's the one real question that he has obviously the playoffs.

461
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: But he's still young. I mean what he's doing is,

462
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: you know, him and Mahomes are making it look a

463
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: lot easier than what it really is and being successful

464
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,439
Speaker 1: in winning MVPs. I mean that it doesn't happen at

465
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: that position at this age. Yeah, McLevin. What about the

466
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: durability of a running quarterback, Well, that concerns me too.

467
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: By way, for about half this list, Kyler Murray, Josh

468
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: Allen too. Everybody, it's like a tutorial. Every quarterback should

469
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: watch Kyler Murray slide. Watch Russell Wilson avoid a hit

470
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: when he's running, and watch Kyler Murray slide. That would

471
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: be beneficial to all of these quarterbacks because it's amazing.

472
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: You would think that a lot of these football players

473
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: played baseball growing up, they would know how to slide.

474
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: I'm guessing that RG three didn't play baseball growing up

475
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: because he doesn't know how to slide, and that's why

476
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: he's going to be a backup quarterback the rest of

477
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: his career. Yeah, mclub What was it he like? An?

478
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: He was an all word track out? Yeah, he was

479
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: a hurdler yea and other things. He could have gone

480
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: to the Olympics, Yeah, Paul Josh Allen kind of reminds

481
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: me of Carson Wentz three years ago, keeping plays alive,

482
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: making great throw as his team is relevant, taking lots

483
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: of hits, and it's really cool when you're winning and

484
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz was the thing. Remember if Fritzie we had

485
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: that draft and Carson Wentz was as hot as a

486
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: guy three years ago. It was like him and then Watson.

487
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,959
Speaker 1: But that's what Josh Allen feels like. He's making Buffalo

488
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: relevant with all his physicality. He just does a couple

489
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: of things that make me scream, and he'll take a hit.

490
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: You know, he can let you back into the game.

491
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: He's a great talent, but it feels like that he's

492
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: learning on the job. And it's rare when you see

493
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,959
Speaker 1: like somebody is learning on the job. Where As it

494
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 1: used to be you'd be learning off the job, you'd

495
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: be watching somebody, you would be practicing more. These guys

496
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: are doing it. So there's going to be flaws. There's

497
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: going to be faults, there's going to be bad games.

498
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: But you're just looking for how are you with composure?

499
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: How are you after you throw the interception? How are

500
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: you after you get sacked? How are you after a loss?

501
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: Like those are the things I always look for because

502
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: when guys are playing well, it looks really easy. But

503
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: when the pocket is collapsing, when you're getting hit, when

504
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: receivers run the wrong route, drop passes, fumbles, sacks, losses.

505
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: That's what I want to see who you are, because

506
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: that's what this sport is. Patrick Mahomes will have stretches

507
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: where he will play poorly, or he's going to get hit,

508
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: or he's going to have a bad game or two.

509
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: It happens to everybody. But it's what do you do

510
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: when those things happen? How do you learn from that?

511
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: That's what I'm always curious about. Let's start with phone calls.

512
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: Don and Iowa leads us off best and worst of

513

Speaker 1: about that. And I'm in the middle of a meeting.

534
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: You can't just call me all right? The Cowboys offense?

00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: to follow that, but thanks for the phone call this

541
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: point again. Thanks for rolling me out of bed and

542
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: getting me on here. I appreciate it. You're welcome, Travis.

543
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: Thank you having that much to talk about or calling about.

544
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: But how about them down America's team. That's right, Danny,

545
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: I've asked you this before. I'm gonna ask you again.

546
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: I got one ticket left for our being wagon. I

547
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: already have them making the playoffs. I already said they're

548
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: making the playoffs. So you're on the train for a

549
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: little while. Then I like it. Well, look I can

550
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: get you in the playoffs. I can't help you after that,

551
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: but thank you Travis. By the way, what was the formula?

552
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: How about we run the football and we don't rely

553
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: on Baker Mayfield just throwing the ball and it helps

554
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 1: going against that Dallas defense. Yes, mclub, big Mr today

555
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: for Nick Chobb, our guy. I felt bad about that.

556
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: The other guy came in and some new guy. It

557
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: was unbelievable. Here's Baker Mayfield on the Cowboy game. You

558
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: just gotta tell guys, we gotta go out and execute.

559
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: We left them back in that game. It's a great team.

560
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: They're resilient. Um. You know, we've seen them come back

561
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: against Atlanta earlier in the season, so it shouldn't have

562
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: been a surprise to us. We gotta be able to

563
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: put that away, all right. So the Browns that AFC

564
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: North is pretty good. Pretty competitive. Yeah, Paully Mclevin's right.

565
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: Some guy named de Ernest Johnson came in for the

566
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: Browns and dropped ninety five yards seventh yards of carry.

567
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: How can you not like a guy named d Ernest? Yes,

568
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: if he is great, then I don't think you ever

569
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 1: pay a running back again because that is a pure

570
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: system position. Although the guys that got paid are unbelievable.

571
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 1: This year they rushed for three hundred yards. Yeah, without

572
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: the best running back in the NFL, they rushed the

573
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 1: seven yards per carry. Oh good, All right, we'll take

574
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: a break. More phone calls coming up, best, best and

00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: worst of the weekend. And if you can't call in,

00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,440

Speaker 1: SEC or maybe put in the SEC and then in Clemson,

606

Speaker 1: hundred twenty five points. The NFC West teams have collectively

608
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:29,439
Speaker 1: outscored their opposition by one hundred and eleven points so

609
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 1: far this season. I don't know how it gets any

610
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: better in Dallas. Defensively, offensively, that's great. What I would

611
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: love to see a little bit more of is Ezekiel

612
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 1: Elliott because I still think running the football when you

613
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: don't have a great defense. And I go back to

614
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: when Dallas was I forget what year it was, but

615
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: they won a lot of games, but they ran the

616
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 1: ball and kept their defense off the field. And if

617
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 1: you're able to do that now, when that defense on

618
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 1: the field, they're not exposed for a long period of time.

619
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: And Cleveland exposed them by what running the football and

620
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: if you're not going to stop it, you've got an average,

621
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: you know, thirty five to forty points every single game,

622
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: and even then it's not a given that you're gonna

623
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: win that game. Jim and Iowa joins us, Hey, Jim, Hey, Dan,

624
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 1: how are you good sir? First time? Five to eleven,

625
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:30,360
Speaker 1: one seventy Best of the Weekend Joe Burrow and the

626
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals becking able to win. I believe Joe Burrow

627
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 1: would be the quickest quarterback ever to run the gamut

628
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 1: of outcomes to win a loss at a tie. Okay,

629
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 1: that's good. So have a draft strategy for the Bengals.

630
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: They've been lacking one for decades. Only draft people whose

631
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: first name is Joe. My worst of the weekend was

632
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: being subjected to the Bears and Colts game. My God,

633
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 1: and the Bear happless. Yeah, that was a tough watch. Like,

634
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: that's one of those that I couldn't stay on it

635
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 1: for a long period of time because my head hurt.

636
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: And then I go, I gotta watch some football. And

637
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: at one point, Philip Rivers is that the line of

638
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: scrimmage talking trash to one of the Bears defensive lineman

639
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: and he's saying, he ran around you, like he ran

640
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: all the way around you, and I'm going and he's

641
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: doing that at the line of scrimmage, not like after

642
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: a play in between plays. It was wild. Yeah, pull.

643
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: The tough part is because of the Bears getting decent

644
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: comebacks the first month. You got to stay through the

645
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: first three quarters of horrendousness to see what happens. I did. Yeah, mclovin.

646
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: There are a lot of tweets saying people had to

647
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: convince Folds that he was coming in the second quarter

648
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: and not starting the game because that's the only time

649
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: he's good. Uh. Brandy in Iowa, Hey, Brandy, Hey doing

650
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 1: I'm sensing in Iowa team today. Yes, yeah, we're big

651
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: in Iowa. But I'm going to try to raise the

652
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 1: bark so best. I'm going to expand a little more.

653
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 1: And I think it was dawn. Yeah, Iowa State beating

654
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:19,320
Speaker 1: Oklahoma best first time at home since nineteen sixty worst.

655
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: And I had a conversation with Marvin on this is

656
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: I guess just the NBA Finals over the weekend. The

657
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: feel I get from watching it, it just feels like

658
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: it's not got that same buzz and I'm kind of

659
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: missing out. I mean, Friday night, I'm watching up a

660
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: lot up against it. Last night I'm watching it's the

661
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: best game of the three so far, but it's up

662
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: against football, So I feel like I'm missing some of

663
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: that buzz from the Finals. Well, I think also, and

664
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: thanks for their phone call, Brandy. I think part of

665
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: the problem is we're not used to having basketball at

666
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: this time of the year. Now you have the bubble,

667
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: you probably don't go in with an open mind that

668
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: this is going to be a competitive NBA Finals as well.

669
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of things that you can throw

670
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: in there, but we don't have basketball at this time

671
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: of the year competing against the NBA. But that did

672
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 1: turn out to be a far more interesting game last

673
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: night than I thought it was going to because I'm

674
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: watching the Niners or the Artist formerly known as the

675
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: Niners against the Eagles, and I was flipping back and forth,

676
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: and I found myself watching more basketball later. There were

677
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: a couple of interesting plays. Brandon Aiyuk had a Vince

678
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: Carter like moment the Niners receiver. I always do this

679
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: to the dans. I came in after Arizona State played

680
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: USC and I said on Monday, I said, I have

681
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,879
Speaker 1: no idea how good this kid is other than he

682
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: was done. I think. I think Arizona States scored their

683
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:51,320
Speaker 1: first five possessions against USC. And I said to McLevin,

684
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: I said, this Brandon Ayuk just he goes, yeah, there,

685
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: he's a potential first round pick. I'd forgotten all about him.

686
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden Brandon Ayuk and then

687
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: he caught the pass. He jumps over the defensive back

688
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: and one of the most impressive plays that will have

689
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah. Mc clan, what about this rookie classic receivers?

690
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,799
Speaker 1: Your guy Cede Lamb is awesome too. Yeah, Judy's good.

691
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: It goes back to what I said about the Green

692
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 1: Bay Packers when a scout said everybody can get a

693
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: quality receiver in this draft. Everybody green Bay didn't. But

694
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: everything's going well in Green Bay. No need to revisit

695
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: that topic here. They just announced Davante Adams out tonight,

696
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: and I think Lizard is an injured too. But it's amazing.

697
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:39,959
Speaker 1: Like they Steven, it's working for some reason. I have

698
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 1: good news for Cowboy fans coming up. I had to

699
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: look hard, but I found a reason for optimism if

700
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,919
Speaker 1: you're a Cowboys fan. More phone calls, Best and Words

701

00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: stop by as well. This Monday Dan Patrick Show
