I watched the Scotts Tots 15 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 1: episode yesterday of the Office. I could never watch it again. 16 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: It was that uncomfortable. I did at halftime. I watched 17 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: about ten minutes of it. If you haven't seen it, 18 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: strap in, buckle up. Yeah, I had a hard time 19 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: watching that one again. I'm not gonna spoil it. Yeah, 20 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: so we got to pull question. McLevin is in right. Yeah. 21 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: So the four teams that lost this weekend. Who's in 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: the best shape moving forward? The Browns running away for 23 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: from it interesting in New Orleans is a one percent. No, 24 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what's happening at the quarterbacking position. The Browns. 25 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: I feel like I know what they have and now 26 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: with another year of experience, you hopefully beef up that defense. 27 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: I thought the defense at times look great, but you know, 28 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: I got it. I got a big question marked with 29 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: the Saints of the quarterbacking position because right now I 30 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: got Breeze, Jameis Winston and Tayson Hill. I don't think 31 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: either or the answer there in New Orleans. Yeah, McLellan, 32 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: you do have Avin Kamara, you have the ghost of 33 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas, you have a defense. Uh, you have stars. 34 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: A gotta have a quarterback. What happened to Michael Tooms? 35 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: You gotta have a quarterback. Just got this from Daniel Jeremiah, 36 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: who works for the NFL Network, former NFL scout and 37 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: uh he at moved the sticks. He says, if Deshaun 38 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: Watson became available via trade, the Jets should call. You 39 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: could trade the second pick. This year, they still have 40 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: the twenty third pick first in twenty twenty two, they 41 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: have two and a first round in twenty twenty three. 42 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: That's three first round picks. They could pick up an 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: extra pick or picks if they traded Sam Darnold and 44 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: then he puts in parenthe season my gift to sports Radio. 45 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's that simple, but if I'm 46 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: the Texans right now, I just want to find out 47 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: where Deshaun Watson is mentally. I don't even know if 48 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: they know where he is physically, because last I heard 49 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: he was in New York and that kind of led 50 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: to some rumors there that maybe he would want to 51 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: why not have another former Houston athletes relocate in New 52 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: York City. Maybe he's been asking, you know, he'd been 53 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: looking at James Harden and figure, no, okay, James got 54 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: out of Houston and maybe I'll do the same. Yeah, Paul, 55 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: But if you're the Texans, do you think to yourself, 56 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: we've got a quarterback who doesn't want to be here, 57 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: and we got we're down a lot of draft picks. 58 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: This fixes both and you may think to yourself, if 59 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: we give him to the Jets. I don't know if 60 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: I find overthinking us the odds of him winning a 61 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: Super Bowl with the Jets and us eating this trade 62 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: are low because they're the Jets. I know Deshaun Watson 63 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: is a big X factor and change of the Jets, 64 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: but historically, why would you think that he's gonna win 65 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: anyone's gonna win a Super Bowl to the Jets, and 66 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: I would I think you look at these deals and 67 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: you have to look at it and say, Okay, does 68 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: he want to be here? Can we rectify this? Can 69 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: we somehow make this better? And if not, now you 70 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: know you got to You gotta get a big haul 71 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: for him. The question is how much are you going 72 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: to get? But you have to have a quarterback in 73 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: this league. We know that you have to have a 74 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: star quarterback in this league. It's star driven at that 75 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: position and at his age. If you're going to trade 76 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: for him, you're Miami or you're the Jets, then it's 77 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: going to cost you at least three first round draft picks. Yeah. 78 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: Point I had the latest odds for the team that 79 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: would trade for Deshaun Watson. Jets are first, the Dolphins 80 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: are second, the Bears are third, the Broccos are fourth, 81 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: and then it goes down the line. The Bears don't 82 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: get another chance to Shaun Watson. No, you had your chance, 83 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: you don't get another trade. Yes, they would just say, look, 84 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: we have to take ourselves out of this because we 85 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: screwed up the first time when we had a chance 86 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: for him. Like I said before, it does feel like 87 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: there's a rule in the NFL that good quarterbacks are 88 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: not allowed to go to the Chicago Bears. So that'll 89 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: be consistent. Drew Brees holding off retirement talk, and the 90 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: reason why, from what I was told about twenty minutes ago, 91 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: is he didn't want to take away from anything. He 92 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: wants to have a standalone press conference. You don't want 93 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: to have it right after the game, and you know 94 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: it's emotional there. He's with his kids, with his wife 95 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: on the field after the game, Tom Brady came out, 96 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: they exchanged hugs there. But this will be a standalone 97 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: press conference. And I think that Sean Payton knows what 98 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: the answer is, and so did Drew Brees. He's got 99 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: that job at NBC Sports waiting for him. That's not 100 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: the way you want to go out. But you got 101 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: to get emotion out of this. This has to be 102 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: a business decision. You're making a business decision. Now, do 103 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: you want to try to do it one more time? 104 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: Or can you walk away after a game like this? 105 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: You didn't throw for one hundred and fifty yards and 106 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: he threw three interceptions. We just had Troy Aikman on 107 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: last Hour. You can go to Dan Patrick dot com 108 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: if you missed that interview and Troy was talking about it. 109 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: You know it's a double edged sword. I can't walk away. 110 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: I played poorly. I can't walk away. We just won well, 111 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, can you walk away after throwing three interceptions? 112 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: Packers over the Rams, Bills, Ravens, Bills win that one, 113 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: Chiefs over the Browns, Buccaneers and the Saints, with the 114 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: Bucks winning it by ten. We've been talking a lot 115 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: about Chad Henny coming in, and Chad Henny had the 116 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: great third down run set up the fourth down. Now 117 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: he did throw the interception, but you know I'm going 118 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: to give him a big haul pass. You're coming in, 119 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: you're not expecting to play, and that was sort of 120 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: like a punt the fourth down call where it's fourth 121 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: in less than a yard, and Tony Romo is the 122 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: most shocked guy in the building. And what I thought 123 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: was interesting is there's around thirteen or fourteen seconds left 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: on the play climb and Tony Romo is sort of 125 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: giving you a play by play this is what you 126 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: do because look at the body language. They're not running 127 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: a play, you know, go up to the line of 128 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: scrimmage and I thought, thirteen seconds is a long time 129 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: to try to pull off this caper to get you 130 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: to jump off signs. And then all of a sudden, 131 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: with about seven seconds to go, which is the brilliant 132 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: part of this is you just had Tyreek Hill go 133 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: out and you know, create a little bit of separation. 134 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: Didn't need to do much and the defense is not 135 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: expecting anything. But the brilliance of the call is that 136 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: you made the call with around seven seconds left and 137 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: the defense is just gone, all right, we're just gonna 138 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: all right, They're gonna try to drop, you know, draw 139 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: us off side. We're not gonna do that. And then 140 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: you had that call, which I mean, it's it's a 141 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: great call in that moment. It's even greater because it's 142 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: Chad Henny out there. But it was a one yard 143 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: first down throw. But the defense is just they don't 144 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: want to get caught, They don't want to be in 145 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: the neutral zone. They don't want to be off side 146 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: and then you get the first down. That's basically the 147 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: end of that game. But Andy Reid did talk about 148 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: Chad Henny coming in for Patrick Mahomes. So I'm proud 149 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: of Chad and the way he handled everything. And you know, 150 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: he probably said it best when he said, listen, this 151 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: team is unbelievable when somebody has to come in and 152 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: make them feel comfortable, and yeah, that's what team's all about. 153 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: So yeah, again, I'm just I'm proud of the way 154 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: he handle thinks. So Kansas City Chiefs last eight victories 155 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: two four, three six, six, three three five. That's why 156 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: I like the Browns in this game because I thought 157 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: Kansas City would keep them in the game. Little did 158 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: I know that they were going to have a legitimate 159 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: chance to win. Rashad Higgins has the ball fumbled out 160 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: of the end zone, and I said to the Dannetts, 161 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: I was going to give them an opportunity to present 162 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: their case thirty seconds or less. What would you do 163 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: to change the rule? Because this rule has been around 164 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: a long time and we you know, we have this 165 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: incredulous attitude towards it when we see it, like they 166 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: got to change that, and it's the one rule that 167 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: benefits the defense. It's a touchback and the defense gets 168 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: the ball. Now, my thoughts were, if you fumble the 169 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: ball out of the end zone, how about we take 170 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: it back to the twenty yard line, twenty five yard line, 171 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: you keep the ball, cost you the down, you go 172 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: back to the twenty five yard line. That would be 173 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: my suggestion. Keep it simple, but that's rare in the NFL. Mcleven. 174 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: I'll start with you, being the football expert and the 175 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: host of Against the Grain. Okay, I would probably give 176 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: the ball of the offense to make them go to 177 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: the twenty five yard line, okay, which is exactly what 178 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: you just said, for the same reason. I do think 179 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: though it takes out the most exciting play when you 180 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: die for that pilot, And that's my rationale. I love 181 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: that play. I do too, and but this way you 182 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: could still keep it. But I still go back to 183 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: what Bill Belichick tells his players, don't dive and risk 184 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: losing the ball. He says, don't do that. Yeah, but 185 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: he's the enemy of fun. Bill Belichick, that's who we're 186 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: listening to. I mean, he's, of course he's right, but 187 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: it's still like a little spicier to have that play 188 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: in the game. Would you rather the Browns didn't have 189 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: as much fun, not as spicy, and they still had 190 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: the ball after that humble. Well, the thing is, I 191 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: don't think Higgins was showbody. I think he was making 192 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: a real I agree, but I just don't like that 193 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: it goes out and then you know, if you fumble 194 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: it out of bounce at the forty yard line, there's 195 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: no thought of, well, maybe we should give it to 196 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: the other team, you know, middle of the field. That 197 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't even be a consideration. Todd, Ready, I am all right. 198 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: Good morning, Judge Patrick, and a steamed members of the 199 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: Danette staff, thank you for your attention and the opportunity 200 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: to address the man Cave Court today. In the case 201 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: of Richard Higgins versus the NFL's touchback rule, I urge 202 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: you not to penalize an athlete so harshly in an 203 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: attempt to innocently reach across the goal line or touch 204 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: the pilot and score touchdown for his team, the fans, 205 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: the community, the states. Todd, that's thirty seconds. I ran 206 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: out of time, all right, continued a little bit more, 207 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: And in this instance, the worldwide dog Pound. May it 208 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: please the court, I submit a punishment of no worse 209 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: than the ball being placed twenty yards back, with the 210 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: fumbling team keeping possession of a ball, preferably spotting the 211 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: ball at the spot of the fumble, and certainly not 212 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: rewarding the opponent with the ball on their own twenty 213 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: Mister Higgins is guilty of nothing more than perhaps poor judgment. 214 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: Give me the summation. Summation, The people implore Commissioner Goodell 215 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: in the National Football Lea to immediately ammend Article three, 216 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: Item four entitled out of bounds in end zone. It 217 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: may be too late for Brown's Nation, but we have 218 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: an opportunity here and now to prevent other teams we're 219 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: suffering a similar fate, especially with the spot in the 220 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: conference title game mistake. This rule is at best unfair 221 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: and outdated, but I'd submit at its core appalling and intolerable. 222 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: Enough is enough. The defense rests what part of thirty seconds? 223 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: Did you know? I kind of blew past that a 224 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: little bit. I initially said twenty, but I have to 225 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 1: give you. I gave you a cushion of ten more seconds. 226 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: Thank you, DoD Seton, What do you have I leave 227 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: the rule exactly the way it is and spend more 228 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: time figuring out why the ground can cause a fumble 229 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: out of bounds but not inbounds. I don't know. I 230 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: would spend more time on that rule figuring that out idea, Paul, 231 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: I would leave the rule exactly like it is. It's 232 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: a high risk, high reward play. It incentivized a guy 233 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: like Sorenson to knock the hell out of Higgins and 234 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: make a question, should have been a helmet to helmet 235 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: worth the risk? They missed that helmet to helmet. Yeah, 236 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: and they missed that. But a great play by Sorenson 237 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 1: worth the risk and benefits the defense. Yeah, but I 238 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: don't want you to lose the ball. I think you 239 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: should maintain the ball, but just take it back to 240 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: the twenty five yard line. Now front Row doesn't agree 241 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: with me, but so what. Yes, I have to admit 242 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: I was wildly impressed with Todd lawn or a thing, 243 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: but I don't know which way he voted. I got 244 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: so confused. Is he for the play or gets a play? 245 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: No? No No, no, no, we move on. Patrick mahomes Is 246 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: mom Randy was furious over the play for mac Wilson 247 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: when he hit Patrick Mahomes hit her Son ejection for 248 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: the game. She tweeted number fifty one Wilson, that's some 249 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: trash football leading with the helmet. I'm pulling his head 250 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: and pushing his helmet. Randy tweeted Sunday, why are you 251 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: not thrown out? Come on NFL. I don't know if 252 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: somebody said to Randy, did you see Sorenson's hit because 253 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: that was helmet to helmet as well. Imagine if mom's 254 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: got to decide targeting or not. There's a lot more 255 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: calls he hit my boy. Wilson said that he's never 256 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: been a dirty player in his life. I just try 257 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: to play my best, to play fast, make plays, don't 258 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: try to insult me, and keep the threats to yourself. 259 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: He says that he praised that Patrick Mahomes will be 260 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: back next week. Go be great like you have been. 261 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: I didn't think that it was I didn't think it 262 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: was a dirty play. Yeah club. There are a lot 263 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: of people on Twitter criticizing Read for running Mahomes with 264 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: a bad toe or something like whatever, So like, shouldn't 265 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: you protect him a little more? Did you need a 266 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: run play there? Did you? Did anybody think it was 267 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: a dirty play. No, no, I thought it was a 268 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: mistake to run that dangerous a play for the Chiefs. 269 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: But he didn't helmet to helmet? Did he? Did he 270 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: really do that? I did. I saw far more in 271 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: Sorensen's hit on Higgins that was helmet to helmet. Definitely 272 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: helmet to helmet and then the fumble ladd of the 273 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: end zone. All right, so we went through everything with 274 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: the games. Uh, the Chargers are going to hire Brandon Staley, 275 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: the Rams defensive coordinator. The Lions are gonna hire Dan Campbell. 276 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: I said this to the Danets. I don't know if 277 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: it was two weeks ago, made it been a little 278 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: bit um back further, I said, there is some talk 279 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 1: that Eric Biennemy is not going to get a head 280 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: coaching job, And you guys looked at me like I 281 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: was crazy, and I said, this is just what I'm 282 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: hearing that Eric Bienemy is. He might get left out again. 283 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: Leslie Frazier is, I guess the lead candidate for the 284 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: Texans and he's the Bills defensive coordinator. Then you're down 285 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: to the Eagles and what they do, and there might 286 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: be some apprehension from the Eagles front office with Eric Bienemy. 287 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: Maybe with some incidents when he was younger, but you know, 288 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: there's still well, there's only two openings right so I 289 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: don't know what the reason is. I'm sure the reason 290 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: will come out, but you would think Eric Bienemy would 291 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: be getting that opportunity. But from what I heard, this 292 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: is at least two weeks ago. Now, maybe the Eagles, 293 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: because I thought the Eagles were definitely hiring a minority candidate. 294 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: I thought that that was a given that they were 295 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: hiring a minority candidate. I don't know who that's going 296 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: to be, but right now, it doesn't feel like Eric 297 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: b Enemy is going to get the head coaching job. 298 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: If he does, I think it might be Philadelphia. Yeah, McLean, 299 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: Can I speak as an Eagles fan, I feel like 300 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: they really need an offensive guy like that to either 301 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: fix Wentz or develop Hurts. Feels like I know that 302 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: they're interview. Doesn't feel like a job that needs to 303 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: be an offensive, So the enemy seems perfect. Well. You 304 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: got to be careful though, if you come in and 305 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: you have somebody who's doing something specific, when you know, 306 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: let's like an offensive coordinator who can help fix that. 307 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: I got to be careful with my head coach. My 308 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: head coach is a CEO like Robert sala is a 309 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator going into the Jets and you have the 310 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold situation. He has to hire the right person 311 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: to then find out if Sam Darnold is their quarterback 312 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: as they move forward here, you know that that's where 313 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: you got to be. You know, Rex Ryan was a 314 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: wonderful defensive minded coach, but you've got to be a 315 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: CEO that oversees everything here. But yeah, got that information 316 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, I think from a sores and he said, 317 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: I hope you're sitting down, but you guys keep talking 318 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: about Eric Bienemy. I don't know if he's going to 319 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: get a job. And I went, I'm sitting down, and wow, 320 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: that's surprising. All right, we'll get to phone calls best 321 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: and worst of the weekend. Let me sneak in one 322 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: here before we take a break. Joe in Ohio, Hey Joe, 323 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: best and worst of the weekend? Hey Dan, last week 324 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: I called in about my Browns. Well, he said, to 325 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: call back on a winner lot. My best of the 326 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: weekend is watching a brown the game in mid January. 327 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: That was cool. Worst of the weekend is the Browns 328 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: giving me hope in Brown's fashion, only to have a 329 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: fifty year old Michigan quarterback run for twenty yards. That's 330 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: not Tom Brady and it's Chad Henny and it was 331 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, I liked that they fought back, but the 332 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: Chiefs were the better team. And it is what it 333 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: is you held. You hung in there, though, Joe, thank you. 334 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the Browns hung in there against a great 335 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: team and they made it close. And I think, you know, 336 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: you got a rookie head coach, you got a quarterback 337 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: that is gaining maturity. There they started to figure out 338 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: who they were. But they hung in there. And that's 339 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: what I love seeing. You don't see a team that 340 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: just sort of quits. You know, they hung in there 341 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: and had a chance. Yeah, Paul, the best thing that 342 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: could happen to Chad Henny is he never throws another 343 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: pass in the NFL. He stays on the bench, maybe 344 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: two or three more years behind Mahomes takes a knee, 345 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 1: maybe in a nice December game, but he can now 346 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: put his feet up and live in Kansas City for 347 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: the rest of his life. I think we already have 348 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: our T shirt with Chad Henny. I don't know if 349 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: Chad Henny thought he was going to have a T 350 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: shirt made in his honor. But how about anything is possible? Anything, 351 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: Anything is possible? Like anything is all right? Well, maybe 352 00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: we don't go with the T shirt we had in 353 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: the work six months ago, but we just didn't have 354 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: the opening by Chad Henny. The shirt was ready, but 355 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: Henny got no run. Anything hennything is possible, suck on 356 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: that time. I like it. I'm all in on that. Wow, yeah, yeah, 357 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: anything is fun. Well, I don't know, you gave me 358 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: that look like kind of a side on, like okay, look, 359 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: it's when you first here. It says like someone's like 360 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: slurring their word. It's a perfect play. Anything hennything is possible. 361 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: Kevin Garnett loves it. We'll take a break here and 362 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 1: we'll talk to Lewis Riddick from the Mother's Ship and 363 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: get his thoughts on the team that's in best shape 364 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: moving forward of those who lost over the weekend, and 365 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: how does he see these conference title games playing out. 366 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: Did he think that was a dirty hit on Patrick 367 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: Mahomes and would he change the role of the ball 368 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: going into the end zone with the touchback. So we'll 369 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: check in with Lewis Riddick coming up next to here 370 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: twenty after the hour Dan Patrick Show.

Lewis, thanks for joining us. Was that 406 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: a dirty hit on Patrick Mahomes in your opinion by 407 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Mack Wilson, No, it really didn't. It didn't come off 408 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: that way to me watching it live, and you know, 409 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: having watched mack Wilson play and you know, in anecdoleague 410 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: just kind of like seeing what other people upset about 411 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: mac Wilson and how Matt kind of expressed, you know, 412 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: his feelings afterwards. It didn't seem quite honestly, Dan, when 413 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: I saw the hit, you know, I'm sitting there thinking, Wow, 414 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: where where did it come from? I mean, how how 415 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: did he get you know, how did he concust on 416 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: this play? Because it wasn't a business started. It wasn't 417 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: like the same kind of hit like to Debby and 418 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: put On put on Carson Wentz in the playoff game 419 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: a year ago. It wasn't that same kind of you know, 420 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: hit to the back of the head. So, I mean 421 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: I was I was kind of shocked, quite honestly when 422 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: when Patrick got up to look in the way that 423 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: he did. But you know, from all educations, based on 424 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: what Andy said, he was doing well after the game 425 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: and hopefully you can play next week. Well, I thought 426 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: Sorensen's hit on Higgins helmet to helmet was far more 427 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: egregious and that was not called absolutely, I mean no 428 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: question about that. And I think that's something that at 429 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: the league and the referees are going to have to 430 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 1: be more consistent about and continue to work to try 431 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: and be more consistent because look, I mean Nick clearly 432 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: lead dropped his head. Clearly he gets in the side 433 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: of the head. I mean it was I mean, it's 434 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: as plain as day. And although that's not reviewable, I mean, 435 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: it's just it's it's wild that that is not that 436 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,719 Speaker 1: that's not being called with more consistency. And I understand 437 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: it's a big game and it's a crucial play, and 438 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: you don't want to you don't have crucial plays like 439 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: that in ball games decided by ref you know, referee 440 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: calls and flags being put on the field. But in 441 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: the name of safety, which is always what this has 442 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: always been about, you have to strive for more consistency 443 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: than that. What do you think of the rule where 444 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: you do you fumble the ball out of the end 445 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: zone and automatically, you know, the defense, you turn it 446 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: over to the defense. Yeah, I think I'm like, I'm 447 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: like everyone else. I mean, you don't. It seems very 448 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 1: ridiculous that you know, and that you're being punished for 449 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 1: effort for trying to score the football and you know, 450 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: and then you lose possession of the football totally at 451 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: that point in time, and you know you don't have 452 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: an other chance to try and punch it in. I mean, 453 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: with the rule being what it is. I mean you've 454 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: heard many coaches, you know Bill Beltick in particular, and 455 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: and I know Kevin Stefanski he was talking about it 456 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: as well, coach players to not reach the ball out 457 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: unless you are sure, unless you know you're able to score, 458 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: don't do it, which you're never going to know if 459 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: you're able, you know, to score. Per se and it 460 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: and it sucks because it's one of those plays that 461 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: really kind of took the wind out of out of 462 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: the sales of the Browns at that point in time. 463 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: But it's something I'm sure they're going to look at 464 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: it here in the offseason because you just don't you 465 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: don't want those kind of things again coming up in 466 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: big games, dan deciding football games, they're deciding the momentum 467 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: or you know significant at least swinging the momentium football game. 468 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: But how would you fix the rule? I think you 469 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: know that that's hard to say. I mean, I think 470 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: there's a there's a number of different ways that you 471 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: could I think at that point in time, you know, 472 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really know. I don't know, because 473 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: I said, just take it back to the twenty five 474 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: yard line loss of down and then that way, I'm 475 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: going to punish you. But I'm not going to punish 476 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: you for that extra effort. I I can't decimate you 477 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: for something like that. Although I do agree with what 478 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: Belichick and Mike Vrabels say to their players, just don't 479 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: do it. But I'm thinking if we change the rule, 480 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: how do we change the rule? And maybe you just 481 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: bring it back to the twenty five yard line? Yeah, 482 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean that that's that sounds like a you know, 483 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: a pretty standard way to try and legislate that kind 484 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: of play, you know, as far as legislating some kind 485 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: of action or some kind of punishment. It's it's hard, 486 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: you know. I haven't really thought it through about how 487 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: exactly would you fix it, Although it just seems way 488 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: too punitive obviously, to take the ball away from the 489 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: offense again and punishing effort like that, I'd have to 490 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: give more thought to exactly what you know how to 491 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: do that, and I think the league's going to have 492 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: to too. And I think that's why the rule hasn't 493 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: been changed because they probably haven't been able to think 494 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: about what exactly, what do you painted to then, what 495 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: makes the most sense in that kind of situation. As 496 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: a former defensive back, I want you to put yourself 497 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: in the defense yesterday with the Browns. When you see 498 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: Chad Henny and it's fourth down and you see the playclock, 499 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: they're going to try to draw you off sides. You 500 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: don't think that Chad Henny is going to run a 501 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: play given where the ball is and what's at stake here? 502 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: What do you think as a defensive player in a 503 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: situation like that and the possibility of them running a play? Yeah, 504 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: as a second level defender in particular, then, and you're 505 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: not on the on the defensive line obviously, if you're 506 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: if you're a d lineman, I think first and foremost 507 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: your thing in number one, I'm just not jumping off side. 508 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: I'm not moving til this ball moves, even if I'm 509 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: laid off the football. So I think their mindset is 510 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: much different than the second and third level defenders. If 511 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: you're a linebacker or safety, you're off the ball anyway, 512 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: so you don't really care about hard account you're not. 513 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: It's not going to really affect you one way or another. 514 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: What you need to be focused in on is in 515 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: the event that they do run a play, I need 516 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: to know where I need to be, and I know 517 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: it's particularly where I need to be in regards to 518 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: who their best players are. So I definitely needed to 519 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: know where number ten was. I needed to know where 520 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: Tyreek was going to be. And you can't relax in 521 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: that type of situation. And then lastly, but fourth and 522 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: one type situations, you're sitting there in the shotgun. I mean, 523 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: that's where from a coaching standpoint, you just have to like, like, 524 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: sprint right option is something that Andy Reid and all 525 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: West Coast offenses have run over and over again. That's 526 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: a and that's all that play was. That's what they 527 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: were running back in the days of Bill Walsh. And 528 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: I mean it seems that sounds easier, you know, easier 529 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,439 Speaker 1: said than done at this point in time, but I 530 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: think that that's what it's all. That's what it's about 531 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: at the professional level. It's about preparation. It's about key 532 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: moments like that, and you just have to be prepared for. 533 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: You can't get caught off guard. You just can't I 534 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: know everyone from from from Romo to the people sitting 535 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: at home, we're shocked that they actually ran the play. 536 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: But again, if you're a second or third level defender, 537 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: you're a linebacker, safety, corner, it's about doing your job 538 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 1: and not worrying about whether or not they're just going 539 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: to try and draw the you know, the front four 540 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: or front five off side, and it's it's just too bad. 541 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: It's too bad that if in fact people did relax 542 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 1: and weren't really playing with the same kind of urgency 543 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: that they normally would, that it ultimately cost them because 544 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: that was a huge fricking play. It was a huge play. 545 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: He's Lewis Reddick, the ESPN Monday Night Football analyst, of 546 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: the four losing teams over this weekend, who's in the 547 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: best shape moving forward? Wow? You know really, I mean 548 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: I would say, look, the Browns are. I think the 549 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: Browns are in good shape because Kevin really does have 550 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: a good idea of what he wants his football team 551 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: to look like him. For the first time in a 552 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: long time, he's got them pointed in the right direction. 553 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: And Andrew Burry has done a fantastic job of continuing 554 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: some of the work that they have done previously as 555 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: far as stockpiling draft picks and drafting young players. So 556 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: I think they're in good shape from an AFC standpoint. 557 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 1: And look, I think Baltimore is too on the NALYC side, 558 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: But I think the Rams, the Rams got to figure 559 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: out exactly what it is that they really feel towards 560 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 1: Jared Goff and if he is going to be the 561 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: guy for the future for them moving forward. And because 562 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: this sounds like Sean at this point in time, is 563 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 1: this noncommittal and that he's really going to take a 564 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: deep dive, hard look at his football team, particularly at 565 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: that position. But from a young player standpoint, they have 566 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: done a pretty darn good job under some difficult circumstances, 567 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,959 Speaker 1: given what they've given up in terms of draft capital 568 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: to get some of the players that they have, of 569 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: still stockpiling that roster and positioning themselves for the future 570 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: here in one of the toughest divisions in football, if 571 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: not the toughest division in football to the lead out 572 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: there in the NFC West. So I think those two 573 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: teams in particular look real good head going forward. I mean, 574 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: the Saints have a lot of a lot of issues 575 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: going I mean, they are just in absolute cap hell 576 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: going forward. They got to figure out what's going on 577 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: at quarterback now, because you have to assume that Drew's 578 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: last game was last night. James, the guy is tasting 579 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: the guy. What's the situation there and how are they 580 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: going to continue to build out this roster given the 581 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: fact that they're gonna have sets limited resources. From a 582 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: sorry cath sorry cap room perspective, would you rather go 583 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: against Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady? There's no third option there, 584 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: by the way, Yeah, you know what I mean. I think. 585 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: I mean that's so man. Either way, man, I'm gonna 586 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: be I'm gonna be disrespecting to the grades. But I 587 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: think right now, I mean I'd rather go against Tom 588 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: because of the fact that I think Tom has his 589 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: own reasons for wanting to continue to be great and 590 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: obviously get to a super Bowl, and the guy has 591 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: never become complacent despite the fact that he has been 592 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: in the most successful individual probably in team sports, maybe 593 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: in well definitely in the history of the NFL. But 594 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: Aaron's just on a different He's on a different level 595 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: and has a mindset in a in a cockiness in 596 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: kind of a way about him right now that having 597 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: talked to them both this year on Monday night production calls, 598 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: that you just knew that he was going to continue 599 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: to try and just absolutely torch everyone all year long. 600 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: And he was. He was in a zone with with 601 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: Matt mcflour that maybe he's never ever been in in 602 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: his entire career. And that's saying something given some of 603 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: the spectacular seasons that he's had. But can we simplify 604 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: this Low Lewis and say when the Packers drafted Jordan Love, 605 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: they lit a fire in Aaron Rodgers. Um, well, we can, 606 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: right too, although if you if you ask him and 607 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: when you talk to him, he won't say it lit 608 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: a fire, although you know it did to some degree. 609 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: I mean, because you know them. He's just one of 610 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: the He's he's a type a competitor. I just think 611 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: he hit a level in his second year and so 612 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: in the off season in terms of his relationship with 613 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: Matt that this this was inevitable whether or not they 614 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: drafted Jordan or not. I think this, this the evolution 615 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: in terms of his comfort in that offense was gonna 616 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: happen Dan, no matter what. Yeah, I mean, you know, 617 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean there's no doubt that. You know. Look, he's 618 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,239 Speaker 1: he's again given all, no matter how successful he has been. 619 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: And that's the cool thing about all these guys, all 620 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: these guys who were supreme, supreme achievers. They I mean, 621 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: just like the Jordan, Like like we saw with Jordan 622 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: in the Last Dance, they always are looking for something 623 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: and even though they won't admit it, of course it 624 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: drives them. But I think that relationship and I'm a 625 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: big look, I'm big on that part of it. From 626 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: the importance of relationships. As he's insult that relationship with 627 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: Matt Laport in the offseason, and Matt talked about that too. 628 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: This thing just took off, man, I mean, it just 629 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: took off. And you see, you see it happening with 630 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: time right now, as him and Bruce get more comfortable, 631 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: as him and Byron get more comfortable in Tampa Bay, 632 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: they look like they are starting to click, and they 633 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: really did last night. Now, is it going to be 634 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: enough against Green Bay? I mean, you know you've been 635 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: up there. You know how miserable it is up there, 636 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: and Aaron has talked about it. How much are you 637 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: willing to suffer when you come to land? But how 638 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: much are you how much can you take holcohol? Soon 639 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: until you start looking at the clock, going, hey, those 640 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: buses right out the hide the stadium, heat them up, man, 641 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get the hell out of here. That's what 642 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: he says. It's it's it's how long are you willing 643 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: to suffer? And we're gonna find out next week as 644 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: far as Tampa's concerned. Let's see what else did I am? 645 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: How do you salvage Deshaun Watson? You know, I was 646 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: just asking us a little while ago. I don't know. 647 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you know how relationships are. Sometimes it's not salvageable. 648 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes you just breach someone's trust so so much to 649 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: the point where there is no turning back. There just isn't. 650 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: And this sounds so systemic down there, and so and 651 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: ingrained in the way not only heat feels, but other 652 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: players feel too that. I don't know if you do. 653 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't know if you If you do, 654 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: and that would be a damn shame to be honest 655 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: with you, though, Lewis, what's that you start taking offers? 656 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: I think you have to listen because if the guy 657 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: doesn't want to play and you and he has a 658 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: no trade clause, and you can't dictate to him where 659 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: you send them to, mean, what are you gonna do? 660 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do? And they're they're in a 661 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: terrible situation from a team rebuild as far as not 662 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: having draft capital, and they could get a boatload of it, 663 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: and there's teams out there who have a boatload of 664 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: it to offer them. Now, that would be a terrible 665 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: way to start off your your you know, your tenure 666 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: down there if you're Nick Kissario. But hey, if you're Nick, 667 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: you they're like, hey, look, I'm not the one who 668 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: created this situation. I'm not the one who directly created 669 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: this situation. But I'm going to try and make the 670 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: best of it because it may be one of those 671 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: men that you can't recover. And if you listen to 672 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: the shan and you talk to people who have been 673 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: down there, and it's not just the Shaun who's feeling 674 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: this way, he's just the front facing guy, he's just 675 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,919 Speaker 1: the one. God forbid. I'll tell you what if JJ 676 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: Watt comes out and says something like this too, to 677 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: the point where he says, look, I just want adda here. 678 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: I want to end my time here because the wheels 679 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 1: are going to really come off. Well, he's gonna yeah, 680 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: he's not going to play there next year. I can't 681 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: see JJ playing there. And also I was told this 682 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: two weeks ago by a source, don't be surprised if 683 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: Eric B. Enemy does not get a head coaching job. 684 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: Now there's two openings, Lewis, what am I missing here 685 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: with Eric B Enemy? And it looks like Leslie Frasier 686 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: might be the leading candidate with Houston, and then we 687 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 1: have Philadelphia. I think what you have is looking human 688 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: beings are making these decisions, and human beings engage in 689 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: confirmation by all all the time, and right now, for 690 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: some reason, and I don't really want to go down 691 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: this rabbit hole to the point where, you know, we 692 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: make this into a racial discussion. But for some reason, 693 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: all these things, all these different excuses keep coming up 694 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: about Eric, whether it be he doesn't interview well, or 695 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: are there things in his past that cause you to 696 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: press pause, you know, in terms of his accountability and leadership, 697 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 1: and and you know, his dependability going forward, which will 698 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: just be as and Andy has talked about so many 699 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: different times, but it's just ridiculous to even bring up 700 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: at this point but I think that that's what's happening. Then, 701 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: of course there's the whole he doesn't call plays well, 702 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,720 Speaker 1: you know what. I've talked to Andy enough times about 703 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,280 Speaker 1: this in Bread Beach to say that, look, the amount 704 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: of responsibility that they put on him is the same, 705 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: if not more than, the responsibility that Andy gave to 706 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: both Gugu and Matt Naggie. So I don't I would. 707 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: I would hope, like hell that this is not simply about, 708 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: you know, the whole, you know, being comfortable with hiring 709 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: people who don't necessarily look like you, have the same 710 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: experiences as you, and you still have those kind of 711 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: hangoups and have those kind of reservations that would keep 712 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: you from hiring a young coach like him, a relatively 713 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: young coach like him, who has coached one of the 714 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: greatest players we've seen coming into this league ever, and 715 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: who vouches for him without pause. I would hate that 716 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 1: that would I would hope that that is not something 717 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: that is deciding this man's future as far as being 718 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: a head coach. But I'm not naive enough to think 719 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,280 Speaker 1: that it's not a factor, because there's no other reason. 720 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: There's no other reason at this point Dan, there's this 721 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: flat out no other reason, and that's that's awful. That's 722 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: something I know the Commissioner does not want to be 723 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 1: the case. I've talked to the Commissioner. I know how 724 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: important that is to him, and for this to be 725 00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: something that again we're addressing another another year, another hiring cycle. 726 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: It's this flat out embarrassing and ridiculous that we're having 727 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: even entertained these conversations. Why isn't Eric b Enemy at 728 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: the forefront of someone's you know, as someone's hiring wistless, 729 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: Why is he not at the top. I'd love to 730 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: know what those reasons are, those objective reasons are. I 731 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: would love to have set in on an interview with 732 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: him and tell him to where people come out of 733 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: an interview and go, nah, he's not quite the guy. 734 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: And that's not to take anything away from some of 735 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: these other guys who were getting jobs, because I tell 736 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: you this, I said back in September, the very first 737 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: time I talked to Brandon Staley, this kid is fantastic, 738 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: He's fantastic. Was blown away by him, and Sean told 739 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: me that at the Super Bowl last year, You're going 740 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: to be blown away by Brandon Staley. He is that sharp. 741 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: I've talked to Robert Sali. I know how impressive he is. 742 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: I know how impressive he is. Brian Daboll, I know 743 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: how impress Even though he may not get his job 744 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: either in the cycle, I know how impressed these guys are. 745 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: Arthur Smith I've known for fifteen years. Arthur Smith used 746 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: to come and watch tape with me in Washington, sitting 747 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: in the scouting room in the scouting hallway when he 748 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: was just trying to figure out what he wanted to 749 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: do with his life. And in Vinnie Serado and his 750 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: dad Prison Smith said, Hey, can he just sitting here 751 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: and watch the film with you? Because he just wants 752 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: to be around football. And now I knew Arthur was 753 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: going to be a head coach. So these guys are fantastic. 754 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: But for Eric right now to have the conversations throwing 755 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: around him in the manner in which it is is 756 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: just criminals. It really is. It's it's sad because I 757 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 1: talked to him as well, and probably talk to more 758 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 1: people about him than I talked to about any of 759 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: these guys, and it's just it's just so unfortunate, and 760 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: it's so defeating and it's so deflating, but onward we 761 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: must press, and that's just the way it is, well 762 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: said Louis.

Bruce Arians had this to say to Peter King, 779 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 1: calling Tom Brady the consummate leader he's been all year. 780 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: Got the air of confidence that permeates through our team 781 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: every day. I allow him to be himself. Like New 782 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: England didn't allow him to coach. I allow him to coach. 783 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: I just sit back sometimes and watch best and works 784 00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: of the weekend Jeff and Milwaukee on the poll question, 785 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: I'll take the Browns in their third place schedule. Two 786 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: best of the weekend from the Packers game. The offensive 787 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 1: line has been injured all the year. They've been juggling lineups. 788 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:15,399 Speaker 1: Usually that kills teams. They did awesome. I'm saturday at Jenkins. 789 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: Excuse me acton Jenkins, especially not getting roped into Donald 790 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: and then second best, just the offense in general. This 791 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: thing is rolling. I think it's smoother than any other team. 792 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: And that played that Davante was awesome. Verus Ramsey all right, well, 793 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,320 Speaker 1: thank you, Jeff. Yeah, Jale Ramsey was not happy because 794 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: I think he thought somebody was going to pick up 795 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: Davante Adams and then nobody did, and then Davante Adams 796 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: got the one yard touchdown reception. Yeah, Paul. And if 797 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: you watch the replay, Rogers gets rid of the ball 798 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: like it's on fire. It gets back to him and 799 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: he's already got his arm cock back like he sees 800 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: the guy wide open. I don't think he waits for 801 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: the laces. I think he just gets it and throws. Yeah. 802 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 1: Mclub side poll question. Best receiver playing next weekend Davante Adams, 803 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 1: Tarik Hill, and Steph Diggs. I don't really have anyone 804 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: on the Bucks right now, but those guys are all 805 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: three of them are right there. No, if Mike Evans 806 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: was playing at his normal high level, then it would 807 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: be a fun conversation there. I might go stuff on 808 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: Diggs as a surprise there because I think he is 809 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: essential to a young quarterback, whereas Rogers has all this 810 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: experience he can spread the wealth. He's so experienced at 811 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: finding somebody going through his progressions.
