11
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: Just watched a little Thursday night football Bengals win, But

12
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: the story of the night's the to a situation which

13
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: will dive in right off the top. Uh. Some other

14
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: thoughts on just the draft a couple of years ago,

15
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: not looking quite as good as we thought when it

16
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: comes to the quarterbacks, the mac Jones, Trey Lance, Justin Fields,

17
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: Zack Wilson situation. Obviously Trevor Lawrence looked pretty good though. Uh.

18
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: The booing. I have a couple of thoughts on booing,

19
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: and then uh, Lamar Jackson, you know why you know

20
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: the Yankees kind of screwed up with Aaron Judge and

21
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: now they're gonna pay for it. If I'm the if

22
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: I'm the Ravens, I gotta still try to figure out

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: a contract before the season ends with Lamar Jackson. We

24
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: gotta get this figured out. Uh. And then of course

25
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: Middlecoff mail back at John Middlecoff is the Instagram fire

30
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: the story of the night was to a tongue vloa

31
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: laying there on the ground, and I think I speak

32
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: for everyone. It's one of the worst things I've ever

33
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: seen on a football field. Part of it was Amazon

34
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: relentlessly focusing and just rewinding to his fingers in his hands. Uncomfortable.

35
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even imagine. I mean the pain

36
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: the guy was in, but the the viewer, what are

37
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 1: we doing? I get this is your first year doing this,

38
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: but give me a break. That that was outrageous. The

39
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: whole scene was was a tough watch, Uh, no way

40
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: around it. And you know it took the whole second half.

41
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: You're kind of taking it all in. And let's face,

42
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: I hate the story. I mean I most people do.

43
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: I'd rather did this. Obviously, you don't root for this

44
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: to happen. No one wants us to happen talking about

45
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: things I do not know. I'm not a doctor. I

46
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: didn't go to medical field. I barely got a fucking degree.

47
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: But everyone's gonna have an opinion, especially in the media.

48
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: There loud, and they love having medical opinions. That have

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: we've seen the last couple of years they have no

50
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 1: clue what they're talking about. But on this one, like

51
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: you've earned either the benefit of the doubt or you haven't.

52
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: And I think the league as a whole has taken

53
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: huge strides. The league forever didn't care about player safety.

54
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: It's not really debatable. I mean, I was born in

55
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: the eighties. In the nineties, they played in terrible stadiums

56
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: with awful turf that injuries no one cared. Just throw

57
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: the guy to the side and obviously concussions. Hell, if

58
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: you played high school football in the nineties early early

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: two thousand's, they would tell you to rub some dirt

60
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: on it. And get back in the game. Things have

61
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: changed a lot in that environment when it comes to

62
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: head injuries. But I think specifically in organizations, like think

63
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: about the people in life that you give the benefit

64
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: of the doubt too. It's usually people that have a

65
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: long history of doing right by you. Right. It's like

66
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: the older you get, they tell you be careful who

67
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: you trust in business, And at first that's just a line.

68
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: Someone's like, be careful, don't trust everyone, and then you

69
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: get screwed over a couple of times and you realize

70
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: you're always on your guard, right. But there are people

71
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: that you haven't seen in twenty years, family friends, people

72
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: you grew up with that you would trust with your life,

73
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: right because of you've seen them when you were younger,

74
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: what they've done for you, your family, Like their character

75
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: speaks for themselves. And then there are people like politicians.

76
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: Of people don't trust any politicians. Why they constantly lie

77
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: to us? Why would we believe anything they say? In

78
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: the NFL, we're always kind of torn, like do they

79
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: actually care? Are they pretending to care? I don't know. Now. Ultimately,

80
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: the consumer doesn't really care. Ratings are up for record numbers.

81
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: It's just skyrocketing ratings. But when it comes to concussions,

82
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: tonight I thought was much more uncomfortable than last week.

83
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: But last week was kind of weird, right. We have

84
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: a long history now of watching guys get in, get concussed,

85
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: wobble off the field, hit the ground, and they've added

86
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: this independent neurologist or guys basically to take it out

87
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: of the coach and the team's hands. So as a coach,

88
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: I say this all the time around the draft. When

89
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: a doctor comes to you and says, this guy is

90
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: a degenerate need what are you gonna say, No, he doesn't,

91
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: of course not. You're not a medical doctor. You just

92
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: gotta have to go with whatever the doctor tells you.

93
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: And last week when two was stumbling around, we've all

94
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: seen enough of these situations ago. Sure as hell looks

95
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: like a concussion to me. But then they come out

96
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: and say it's his back, and you go, you know,

97
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: that doesn't really add up, like his back, Like the

98
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: dude was wobbling around, hit the ground, and then he

99
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: came back in the game. So of course they said

100
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: it wasn't concussion because the couldn't put it back in

101
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: the game. Now, if this was the Steelers. If this

102
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: was the Packers, if this was a lot of organizations

103
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: around the league, you'd be like, you know what, they

104
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: have a long history, trust them when they do something.

105
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: But it's the Dolphins, who I've said over and over

106
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: are one of the biggest clown shows in all of

107
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: professional sports, who ironically their owner is currently suspended because

108
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: of everything that happened with Tom Brady. Remember when they

109
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: tried to land Tom Brady. I always say this about

110
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: Stephen Ross. He's always trying to do things in a

111
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: shady way and never get some done. He's always in

112
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: part of these rumors and they never come to fruition.

113
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: So to me, when I see the Miami Dolphins, they

114
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: don't get the benefit of the doubt. When when something

115
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: happens with the Miami Dolphins, like tonight, you go, yeah,

116
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: something's weird, something doesn't add up. Now they don't have

117
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: an owner, who's to blame. I don't know, it's Mike McDaniel, Like,

118
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 1: was he the guy that cleared up? Of course not

119
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: he can't. So is now the doctor to blame? Because

120
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: our head's gonna roll. The NFL p A has been

121
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: doing an investigation into this for like three or four

122
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: days since it happened, and obviously tonight was I mean awful.

123
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: But now what happens like this to ever come back

124
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: is a season over. Only time will tell. But this

125
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: is the type situation that with this organization. And here's

126
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: the thing with the NFL, the media, the big jay's,

127
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: they hold nothing back. This thing is gonna be a

128
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: war zone until people get answers. Think about the NBA

129
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 1: email Doka who just had some weird thing going on

130
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: internally with women. Well, he's protected by Whosh who is

131
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: basically allowed ESPN to not attack that situation because he's

132
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: been protecting him. There is the healthiest thing I've always

133
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: said about the NFL when it comes to the media,

134
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: there no one protects anyone Like the NBA. They get

135
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: very like territorial and they don't want anything to get inside.

136
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: But it's like in the NFL, it doesn't matter if

137
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: you cover the sport, and that's how you make your

138
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: money as a big j you will attack and you

139
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: will go after them. And that's what's gonna happen. People

140
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: are gonna go after the Miami Dolphins. And you would say,

141
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: based on the last four days, I have no problem

142
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: with that. But I can't get up here and pretend

143
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: to know anything that I you know, I didn't go

144
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: to medical school. I got no clue. Did it look

145
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: pretty bad last Sunday? Yeah? Did? Did he come back

146
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: into the game and they said it back and that

147
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: didn't add up? Of course it did. Tonight pretty awful.

148
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: But everyone's like, well last week, I don't know what

149
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: if it was, is back clearly the night with the fingers.

150
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: Never seen anything like that. That was You get sick

151
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: to your stomach watching the replace that. That was awful.

152
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: Thank God that he's being taken. You know, he's able

153
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: to be released from the hospital and fly home with

154
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: the team. Now, I would say, if I was the

155
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, probably give him a couple of weeks off,

156
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: but I don't care. When he's clear like this next

157
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: game he probably shouldn't play. Now, the NFL, p A,

158
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: the Union. I don't know how this is all gonna work.

159
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: But this is this is only the beginning, and the

160
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,559
Speaker 1: media is gonna go into full attack mode. There's gonna

161
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: be no one protecting him specifically because of this organization.

162
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: People do not care about the Miami Dolphins, and people

163
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: are gonna want answers, and who do you even get

164
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: answers from? There's not even an owner around. Mike McDaniel,

165
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 1: he'll just go, well, the doctor told me this. Chris Greer,

166
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: the GM, he'll you know, Florial thinks a bunch of

167
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: people are gonna get fired. Who knows. Uh. Tonight was

168
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: really ugly hard to not get sick to your stomach

169
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: when watching it. But man, I mean it's honestly, you know.

170
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: The weird part about two of the player. He would

171
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 1: make some really good throws and then he would make

172
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: some deep throws that were pretty horrendous, and I was like,

173
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: got it. It's to a kind of growing on me.

174
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: And then he threw a pick, and then that happened,

175
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: and it was hard to even think about football. The

176
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: craziest part about the sport is trying to almost watch

177
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: the game after that happens. I can't imagine trying to

178
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: play it and trying to reset your mind and play

179
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: the sport. It's just I don't think we give enough

180
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: credit to the players. Like the next snap and you

181
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: just go full go. It's like a dude might at

182
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: one point in time, I'm like, did this guy just

183
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: die on the field? I'm like, it's two alive. That's

184
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: what I thought. It's too alive. I think a lot

185
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: of people were thinking that it's a guy gonna get

186
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: up and then like ten minutes later, they're just playing

187
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 1: a full football game. Teddy Bridgewater comes in, looks pretty

188
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: good until he doesn't and he throws it basically a

189
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: devastating pick that ended the game. And I say this

190
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: all the time, basically passed like the first Thursday Night

191
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: game is uh, do you win or do you lose?

192
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't matter how pretty it was, because

193
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: for a lot of it, Joe Burrow, it wasn't that pretty.

194
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: Now ultimately he made enough throws. Tee Higgins made a

195
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: big play, Jamar Chase made a play um and they

196
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: won the game. To me, anytime you just want to

197
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: get out, you could argue even the first Thursday Night

198
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: game on that, you know, the Charger Chiefs game, because

199
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: obviously as the year goes long, you you have, like

200
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: you know, by the time you get to like November

201
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: and December and you're playing on a short week, that

202
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: that is just brutal. The only thing you care about

203
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: winning the game, get out of there. The Bengals did it.

204
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: Let's face it, they've kind of, I don't want to

205
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: say save their season, but at oh and two a

206
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: team that was just in the super Bowl, where like

207
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: I thought the Bengals were gonna be some power then

208
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: they look pretty shitty the first two weeks. Now they're

209
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: two in two, feels like they got a little momentum.

210
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: Now they got kind of the mini by uh their

211
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: passing game with Burrow, Higgins and Chase, it's just pretty

212
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: awesome when it's on. I mean Higgins, I say it

213
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: all the time. I was way off. I did not

214
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: realize he was that good. Obviously, Jamar Chase, he's kind

215
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: of had a slow start to this season, is a star.

216
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: So as long as you got those two guys and

217
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow with mixing, if your defense just play solid

218
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: like you're a playoff team. And the crazy part about

219
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow is I was thinking tonight, like real ative

220
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: to Justin Herbert, who physically is just this monster, has

221
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: this enormous arm, Like Joe Burrow is not the biggest guy,

222
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the biggest arm. He just I say

223
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: this all the time, like some guys just have instincts

224
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: to play the position. And he is just an instinctive player, uh,

225
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: because he's not the most physically gifted by any means,

226
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: but the dude can really play. And really, since the

227
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: Bengals got him, he changed their franchise. They obviously hit

228
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: on the two wide receivers, but like you watch them

229
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: to night, they're flawed, Like, by no means are they

230
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: some a I wouldn't call them. Uh, I was gonna

231
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: say I wouldn't call them a power. When I say that,

232
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: I mean top to bottom. Their roster is still got

233
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: some major flaws. But they're a good team and they

234
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: have a chance to beat anyone specifically because of the

235
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 1: quarterback and really the two wide receivers just a big

236
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: time playmaker. So you know, you say, big win for

237
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: the Bengals feels weird to say on a night where

238
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: again we thought a guy might have died on the field,

239
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: but seems he's okay, flying home with the team prayers

240
00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: up the to a Uh. Yeah, you know, I've been

241
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 1: thinking this week about drafts. Um, there's already a ton

242
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: of buzz on the draft coming up. With the quarterbacks.

243
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: You know, Will Levis has a big game this morning.

244
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: The Kentucky quarterback that's gonna be a top five pick.

245
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: Bryce Young obviously Alabama's quarterback c J. Stroud. We've been

246
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: hyping definitely Stroud and Bryce up Now for a season,

247
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: Levice has has entered the chat and the simple reality

248
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: when you get around drafts, the hype on quarterbacks, it

249
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: just gets outrageous when there are good ones, right, And

250
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 1: this last year was pretty terrible, and it was kind

251
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: of universally agreed upon not very good quarterbacks. You know,

252
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: Malik Willis third rounder, uh, Desmond Ritter third rounder, like

253
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 1: the majority, Like, we had one guy taking number twenty overall,

254
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: and I thought it was pretty nuts. Some Steeler fans disagreed.

255
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: But for the most part, when a guy, when a

256
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: quarterback doesn't get taken to the pick and then another

257
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: guy does not go until the third round, tells you

258
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,719
Speaker 1: everything to know what you need to know. In a

259
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: league where half the teams are always looking for quarterbacks,

260
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: even if you got a decent one, you always draft

261
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: a guy high if he's talented. And it was very reflective.

262
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: But two years ago it was a loaded draft. Uh,

263
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: the league told you. It's not necessarily my opinion or

264
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: Milk Kuiper's opinion, or Mick Shay or whoever, even when

265
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: Mayok was doing it or d J. It's about what

266
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: the league thinks that the league determines the market, not

267
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 1: the hype, not the fans, uh, the players in the league, right,

268
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: the talent coming in the league, and then the league

269
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: what they value in your ability. And for the most part,

270
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: if you can play at certain positions, you're getting drafted high. Right.

271
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: You could be a fantastic running back and not go

272
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: to the second round. Right. Bruce Hall, the dude from

273
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,839
Speaker 1: Iowa State stud like, it's just it doesn't It's not

274
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: a reflection that he can't play. It's just his position safeties,

275
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: right that they drop in the draft. If you can

276
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: rush the pastor if you can playoff as a tackle,

277
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: or you can throw the ball, you get drafted high. Right.

278
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: Ocean front property usually goes for more money than uh,

279
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: you know, property in the middle of the desert. It's

280
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: just the nature of the value in real estate. Right.

281
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: No different in football. Quarterbacks get drafted higher than a

282
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: lot of positions when they're when all things are equal,

283
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: and last year things weren't. Two years ago we viewed

284
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: like they weren't either. But on a good you know

285
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: from the side that they were gonna be a bunch

286
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: of stead quarterbacks. And I'll be honest, I kind of

287
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: bought into it, because, let's face the hype machine, UH

288
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: create some group think. It's I'll never forget this, and

289
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: I'm not claiming to be some scouting genius, but you know,

290
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: when I first got in the league, like, they don't

291
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: want your opinions on every player, and they definitely don't

292
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: want your opinions on the good ones. So like my

293
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: first year as the lowest guy in the Totem Bowl,

294
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: they weren't asking me what I thought of first rounders

295
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: and the high price free agents. They did not give

296
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: a ship and looking back, they should not have, in

297
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: my opinion, was irrelevant. But I will never forget just

298
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: firing through some of the guys are gonna get drafted high.

299
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: And I remember watching Trent Williams, not Trent Williams, Trent

300
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: richardson the running back from Alabama, and I remember thinking,

301
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, I wouldn't say I don't really

302
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: see it, but I remember thinking, like, you know, I've

303
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: been watching tape all year long, so I and I

304
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: knew at the time what played in the League, and

305
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: I just remember having a couple of thoughts like, I

306
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: don't know, man, this guy is gonna go in the

307
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: top ten or whatever, and uh, you know, I didn't

308
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: say anything. I actually mentioned something in like a group setting,

309
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: and people like middle Coffee's he's a stud. And then

310
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: that was that and then it turns out royal bust.

311
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: But that's neither here nor there. But the reality is

312
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: when you come out and say some players are universally

313
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: just agreed upon Nick Bosa, everyone thought he was good.

314
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: Von Miller, Uh you know, just you just go year

315
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: to year. But some players there's gonna be polarization in

316
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: the room. And I think the quarterbacks a couple of

317
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: years ago, besides Trevor Lawrence, who I would say, for

318
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: the most part, universally everyone thought he was the most

319
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: talented guy, most accomplished guy, had the physical skills and

320
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: let's face it, now that he has a real coach,

321
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: looks like he's gonna be a rocket ship and changed

322
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson's life. But the other guys, it was like

323
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: Zack Wilson played at b y U against nobody his

324
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: junior year because of the COVID season. They lost to

325
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina and he went number two, and through two

326
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: years it's not gone well and he's been banged up

327
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: a lot. Trey Lance, who, let's face it, if you

328
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: didn't work in the NFL, no one saw a snap

329
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: the guy played, or you live in North Dakota and

330
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: we just assumed the physical attributes, the high character guy.

331
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: We kind of bought into it his first two years.

332
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: Not all of his fault didn't start last year because

333
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: of Jimmy, but when he did, he got banged up,

334
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: sprayed his knee, hurt his thumb, little random whatever. But

335
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: then this year shatters his ankle. So you would say

336
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, Trey Lance's career not off to rowing starts,

337
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: some of it out of their control, but injuries the

338
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: best ability sometimes availability, and they've both been banged up.

339
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: And then you get to the third guy you know

340
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: off the board, non Trevor Lawrence. Justin Fields. I was

341
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: a big believer in loved Hi mid Ohio State, the speed,

342
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: the arm strength, the game that he had against Clemson. Listen,

343
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,360
Speaker 1: I said coming into the year, it's gonna be difficult

344
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: for the guy. Defensive head coach, not many weapons, but

345
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of people breaking it down, like

346
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: even if you take that out independently, like we all understand,

347
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: he's not dealing with the loaded deck. He's been a

348
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,120
Speaker 1: trocious fit, has not been good. I saw PFF did

349
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: this breakdown of some of his mis throws, and I

350
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: just watched this two minute clips, like, God, I maybe

351
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: I need to watch a little more Bears football. I was.

352
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: I was justin fields guy, but even a Bears fan go,

353
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: you know, probably could be going a little bit better.

354
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: And then Mac Jones one just not that talented too,

355
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 1: wasn't playing that well and now he's got a major injury. Uh,

356
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: we'll see how major, you know. Belichick pushes back. Ultimately,

357
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: my point is that the draft is really hard. You know,

358
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: you are taking one dealing with human beings, right, So

359
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 1: fields tray, Lance ton of talent, size, speed, fields way faster,

360
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: and Lance big arms. Like playing quarterbacks hard. It encompasses

361
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 1: a lot more than just throwing in T shirts and shorts.

362
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: This is also a talk to myself because I buy

363
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: into it. And let's just face it, the majority of

364
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: guys that get drafted at quarterback, especially high, are not

365
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: gonna be good. Because I just thought all three or

366
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: four of these guys are obviously, Trevor Lawrence be a

367
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: pro bowler, a couple more guys be really good, Trey

368
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: Lance dominated with Kyle Fields will end up being good,

369
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: and Mac Jones will just be a ten year starter.

370
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 1: Like as we see, it's a lot harder than that.

371
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: And I think we do it all the time in

372
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: the draft, like this guy is gonna be really good,

373
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be really good. This guy is

374
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: gonna be really good. We only pay a couple of

375
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: guys that will be bad, and the majority of time

376
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: most guys are averaged to below. Why it's really hard

377
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: to play in the NFL. It's very very difficult. And

378
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: the hardest position to play is quarterback. It's why they're

379
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 1: only such a small percentage of guys in the league

380
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: that can do it and do it at a high level.

381
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: So it just that that draft was so hyped up

382
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 1: two years ago and it's been very very it's been

383
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: difficult road for a variety of different reasons for them all,

384
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: and they've all been banged up, right, And it just

385
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: shows you it's a violent game. It's a very very

386
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: violent game. And the other thing is the amount of

387
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: defensive linemen who have come into the NFL over the

388
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: last several years. It's pretty crazy how fast, how athletic,

389
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: how powerful they all are. It is that there's a

390
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: lot of people hunting the quarterback right now that can

391
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: really move, and it's showing on on a weekly basis.

392
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:35,680

421
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: going back to Philadelphia with the Jacks and his boy

422
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Uh. I think the Jacks got a chance

423
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: Eagles clearly a better team, but it wouldn't shock me

424
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 1: at the Jacks stay in this game, big game for

425
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: Doug Right, and he talked about the reception he's gonna

426
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: get and basically like he was there when Andy Reid

427
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: came back, got a good reception, but he basically said,

428
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: it's Philadelphia, you'd never know and they've had a history

429
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: though throwing a snowball to Santa Clause. It could be

430
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: an agi town. But I was thinking about because week one,

431
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: everyone kind of freaked out when Seattle boot Russell, and

432
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: that pissed me off. I try to be profan when

433
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: I go to games. Ever since leaving radio, I would

434
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: never sit with the media. I like sitting with the people.

435
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: I like getting a gauge of the consumer. It's also

436
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: just more enjoyable. You get to drink and eat and

437
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: screw around like I. I I like sitting in the stands.

438
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: I used to not when I was in the media,

439
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: and I've said this over and over. I got a

440
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: much better gauge doing what I do now. Never sitting

441
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: up there and sitting in the stands. I I feel

442
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: I relate better just in terms of talking about it,

443
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: and I don't claim to go to that many games anymore,

444
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: But when I do, I pay for a ticket. And

445
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 1: I never have an issue with fans who pay for

446
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: a ticket because I think a lot of the media

447
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: loses touch with how much tickets cost. When I went

448
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: to the Week eight teen game, to the Niner game

449
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: with two other people, Now granted it was an enormous

450
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: game l A, I mean perfect kind of mix, and

451
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: we had good seats at next to Danny Trejo, I

452
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 1: think the tickets cost close to to grand for three seats.

453
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,719
Speaker 1: Now you could argue three seats weird, number two and

454
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 1: four are typically cheap for when you buy him together.

455
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: But still like it is very very I say it

456
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 1: all the time about the NBA. I never get mad

457
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: at fans for being piste off. When guys sit you

458
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: have you have Google like how much it costs to

459
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: go watch the Lebron James or Steph Courier j honest play.

460
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: These tickets are not cheap. So I always try to

461
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: be pro consumer, pro fan. The guy paying to go,

462
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: you know, sit in the stands and drive to the stadium,

463
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: pay for a fucking hot dog and a beer that

464
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: costs way too much, and then deal with traffic getting home.

465
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: It's an all day or deal. Go into a game,

466
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: trust me, I've been to a million of them, and

467
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: it you know, it's all Sunday. You don't get to

468
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: watch the other games. You were there to watch. Whatever

469
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: game you're gonna see, that is your Sunday. And when

470
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 1: everyone booed Russell Wilson, people are like, and I know

471
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: Colin was like, how could they pull him? Well, he

472
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: asked to leave the team. He was a guy demanding

473
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: a trade in a Russell Wilson way, so he didn't

474
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 1: actually go Kevin Durant demand the trade. But we're not idiots.

475
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: This isn't nineteen sixties seven. We have the Internet. We

476
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: know at least things work. The dude demanded a trade.

477
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: So if you demand a trade from my team, even

478
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: if you're the best player I may ever see, you're

479
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: the best quarterback we've ever had. I'm allowed to boo

480
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: you because ultimately I live in this town, I root

481
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: for this team. I loved you because you were a

482
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,479
Speaker 1: part of this team. But then when you said go

483
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: basically trade me, I want out of here. I can

484
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: also be mad at Pete for capitulating your demands and

485
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: pissing you off. But I can be mad at you

486
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: for basically saying screw you to Seattle because my reaction

487
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: as a fan it's screw and I'll boo you, even

488
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: though in five years when you come back or you retire,

489
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: I'll give you a standing up. But when we play

490
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: you the first game after you demanded a trade, I

491
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: know you claim you didn't. We all know you did,

492
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: I'm allowed to boo you. So there are some rules

493
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: with booing and not booing because dougas basically I don't

494
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 1: know how it's gonna go. And my one rule one

495
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: you're allowed to boo anyone on the opponent. So if

496
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: you play for the other team, whether you like Caps,

497
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: remember when the Ron went to Miami, they were allowed

498
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: to say whatever they want. Now you can say, you know,

499
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm not big on messing when people's family in the

500
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: stand hate that. Whenever someone's sucking with someone's parents or

501
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: their wife, I'm talking about the people on the field.

502
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: You're allowed to boo the opponent. I remember Pete took

503
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: hell when they asked him leading up to that Seattle

504
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 1: Denver game, what do you expect out of the twelves?

505
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,959
Speaker 1: His competition we are trying to win the game. I

506
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: expect them to support us, and they did. Uh. Number two, Like,

507
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: like I said with Russell, when you're famous player Lebron,

508
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: when he leaves you or Russell demands a trade, it's

509
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 1: fair game. Now over time you should show them some respect,

510
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: give them the standing. Oh, but that first year, it's

511
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: all fair game. I do not believe in Doug Peterson's case,

512
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: when he returns he led you do a super Bowl,

513
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: the first super Bowl in the history of the Philadelphia Eagles,

514
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: and one he didn't try to like get traded to

515
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: the Jags or force his way out. He got fired.

516
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: So not only should Doug Peterson not fall under the

517
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: camp of Russell Wilson or Lebron when he returned to Cleveland,

518
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: he should be the opposite where he gets a standing ovation.

519
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: And if Jeffrey Lury, who I would expect him to

520
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: do this, should have some sort of ceremonial video tribute,

521
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: whether it's a minute, two minutes four Doug either before kickoff,

522
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 1: after the first quarter. He deserves to be celebrated. So

523
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: while I'm all four, if a player, if Jason Kelsey

524
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: tomorrow said I hate the Eagles, I want out trade me.

525
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: They traded him to the Cowboys and came out Jason

526
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: Gelsi was one of the greatest players in the history

527
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: of the Eagles. The Eagles would be allowed to boom,

528
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: but when the coaches fired, has to sit out a

529
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: year and then he has to go to the Jaguars, which,

530
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: let's face, about six months ago we all thought that's

531
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: a shitty job. Turns out, actually it's a pretty sweet job.

532
00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: Standing ovation, cheers, salutes, and resp backed waves. Doug has

533
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: earned that right, and honestly, having lived in Philly for

534
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: a couple of years, I fully expect him to get it.

535
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: And last, but not least, Aaron Judge uh, who's from

536
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 1: the Central Valley and I grew up in Davis, but

537
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: it's basically right next to Sacramento, and from Sacramento down

538
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: to Bakersfield is considered the Valley. I consider it the Valley.

539
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: Now that's to me, the Central Valley is probably more

540
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: Stockton to Baker's Field, but you know, I'm I'm north

541
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: of that, So we go up to Sacramento, and to me,

542
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: that area encapsulates in California much more Middle of America

543
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 1: vibes than you will ever get in San Francisco or

544
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, and my dad was a former so I

545
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: and I have family that born and raised in Fresno.

546
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time from basically Stockton down

547
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: to Fresno, and it's a very different. I know a

548
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: lot of you that don't live in California view us

549
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: through the prism of now me. I'm actually moving Scottsdale,

550
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: driving down there on Friday, but from San Francisco and

551
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: Los Angeles when there is a large percentage of people

552
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: that live much much differently than the big city elites.

553
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: And I've always resonated with those people because one I

554
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: my dad was a farmer, spent more time on this

555
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: side than I ever did in San Francisco, Los Angeles

556
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: in the big cities. And two I ended up going

557
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 1: and working for Fresno State, which started my career, which

558
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: in a weird way, led me to doing this now.

559
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: And I definitely follow every guy that played at Fresno State.

560
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: And Aaron Judge who is from a small town in

561
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: the Central Valley called Lyndon, who uh when I was

562
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: at Fresno State. One of our student assistants, Derek Ray,

563
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: who is now basically the general manager at Florida State.

564
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: They basically grew up together or in the same town.

565
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: I think Derek's a little older. And one of my

566
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: other good buddies Vincent Recruity, who played a big role

567
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: at Fresno State football. He's, you know, essentially now like

568
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: a boost stir he you know, farming family. He's become

569
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: a very successful businessman. He has become friends with Aaron Judge.

570
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: Now he's much older than Aaron Judge, in his forties,

571
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: but Aaron Judge spoke at something for him. He has

572
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: young kids. He has been out at Yankee Stadium for

573
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: like the last week and a half just hanging with Judge.

574
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: Judge hanging with his kids and everything. I know. I

575
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: don't know Judge personally, but through every person that I

576
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: know that knows Aaron Judge, they swear by the guy.

577
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: And then watching the way Aaron Judge, you know kind

578
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: of uh, the way he acts and conducts himself. It

579
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: has a very Derek Jeter Peyton Manning professional vibe. Even

580
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: if you don't know anything about the guy where he's from,

581
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: the culture of what he's about, it's hard to go

582
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: that's not a super high level guy. Then when you

583
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: factor in he's six ft fucking seven two under and

584
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: whatever hits bombs and dominates, you go, that's everything you

585
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: can want. And I think something times we overthink it

586
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: in sports, Like Aaron Judge turned down two d and

587
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars from the Yankees before the season. I

588
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: thought it was kind of crazy because he had battled

589
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: some injuries. You know what, It turns out it wasn't

590
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: not only crazy too, it would have been crazy to

591
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: accept the offer because at mid oh he's doubled it.

592
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: But two, he is everything you can want. Right. He's

593
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: a great player on the field, and he's an incredible

594
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: high character leader worker off the field. And sometimes in

595
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: sports I think we can kind of nitpick that guy

596
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: when it's like not everyone's just gonna be ideal, right,

597
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: like Mahomes guess the League, m v P super Bowl,

598
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, no brainer, pay him everything you want.

599
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: Even Steph Curry, people forget early on in his career

600
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 1: he kept getting hurt, he kept having ankle injuries, and

601
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 1: they paid him a very very small contract, which ultimately

602
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: led them to be able to go get Kevin Durant.

603
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: But early on people question, could this little guy stay healthy.

604
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: No one ever questioned, like Steph Curry's everything you want

605
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 1: in terms of work, ethic, character ability. He was this hybrid.

606
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: But then he starts staying healthy. His teammates got a

607
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: little bit better, and they became a dynasty led by him. Right,

608
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 1: some people shoot like a rocketship immediately, like Patrick Mahomes.

609
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: That's kind of an outlier. Josh Allen. Remember a couple

610
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: of years ago, it was like he'd become a really

611
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: good player. They give him all this money, Like that

612
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,719
Speaker 1: was still pretty bold. Not, actually it wasn't. They know

613
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: the character, they know the guy physically on the field.

614
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: It keeps getting better. Now it's pretty obvious he's like

615
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: an incredible player. It's like, what are we talking about?

616
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 1: Isn't part of investing in sports as a general manager,

617
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: as a front office trying to get the highest character

618
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: guys who were also the elite talents, Like not everyone

619
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: is gonna win a championship. Josh Allen, for example, may

620
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: never win a championship. It's it's kind of sounds crazy

621
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: to say that out loud. It is not guaranteed that

622
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is ever gonna have a ring. I think

623
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear. He has Hall of Fame talent. He

624
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: is going to be an incredible player for a long

625
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: time if he stays healthy. But there is no guarantee

626
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: that him and the Bills are going to be Super

627
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: Bowl champions. There's no guarantee Mahomes will ever do it again.

628
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: But he's already did it, and you already knew he could,

629
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: even though I watched Josh Allen and it feels like

630
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: I know he can too, but he may never actually

631
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: do that. And Aaron Judge Baseball is a little bit

632
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: different because one guy can't. Like the Yankees could get

633
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: swept in the first round. That doesn't diminish anything Aaron

634
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: Judge did. Hell, Aaron Judge could go hitless in that

635
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: playoff series, you would still go, well, he's still a

636
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: great player. He still worked four and plus million dollars.

637
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: And I was thinking about Lamar Jackson, who has ten

638
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: touchdowns through the first three games. He has been remarkable

639
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: and off the field. One reason I've really gravitated toward

640
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: him won the uh just everything the way he just

641
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: as the years went, the way he conducted himself, his

642
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: mindset whenever people talk shit, how unfazed he was in

643
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: a day and age when younger athletes get so sensitive

644
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: about stuff Kevin Durant and guys like that, he was

645
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the complete opposite. I was like, I love this guy.

646
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: And then he kept getting better and he kept dominating,

647
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what, I'm a huge

648
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson fan. Early on when he was drafted, I'm like,

649
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: I don't see it, and but two years later it's like,

650
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm in I'm in the Lamar Jackson camp. I'm in

651
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: the Lamar Jackson boat. And now I'm thinking, obviously they

652
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: couldn't come to a contract. If I'm the Ravens, I'm

653
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: still trying to work this out. I know he claims.

654
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about it, like I want to get

655
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: him signed, because like, there's no guarantee Lamar Jackson is

656
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: ever going to win a Super Bowl, just like Josh

657
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,239
Speaker 1: Allen no guarantee. There's no guarantee Aaron Judge is ever

658
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: gonna win a World Series. Hell, he may never get there.

659
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: But you ever hesitate having guys like that on your team?

660
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: Do you ever feel when you have a guy like that,

661
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: great player, great character, great person, you ever regret having

662
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: him around? I just think sometimes these teams. And I

663
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: don't blame the Ravens. Like I said, I thought Lamar

664
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: Jackson made somewhat of a mistake, But I gotta try

665
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: to meet him in the middle because I gotta have

666
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: him on my squad for the next four or five years.

667
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: I don't even want to mess with this every year,

668
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: just like the Yankees. Do you think the Yankees regret

669
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: Should we just offered him three million? Should we have

670
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: just done that? Because he probably would have signed it,

671
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: and now we would add Aaron Judge in her contract.

672
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: Here's what I know. I know a lot of people

673
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: in Philly. They don't regret the Bryce Harper contract at all.

674
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: They love Bryce Harper. He has been fantastic for them.

675
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: And I don't know much about Bryce Harper's, you know,

676
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 1: character personality besides seems like a good guy and people

677
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 1: like him. But it feels like some of this group,

678
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: the Judges, the Josh Allen's, Lamar Jackson's, the Mahomes, the Curries,

679
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: the honest is, it kind of feels like they're all

680
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: under the same umbrella, Like I want those guys on

681
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: my team. What does it cost? Can I really overpay? Like?

682
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 1: Can you really overpay? For the mansion on the water.

683
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 1: Can you really overpay? I don't. I don't know. I

684
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: mean I think historically people would say, no, you really can't,

685
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, And I think sometimes with these star athletes

686
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: when you get the guy, now listen, anyone get injured.

687
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: Lebron James could have shattered a leg five years ago, Like, yeah,

688
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 1: that's just part of the risk. Mahomes could just get

689
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 1: catastrophic injury at anymore. It's it's sports. But you know,

690
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: part of be in the g M seat or being

691
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 1: in the front office seat is like you gotta kind

692
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: of remove that. I don't know if you can really

693
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: play that game because for the most part, Lamars been

694
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 1: very durable. He had the one injury last year, but

695
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: other than that, like dude answers the bell and then

696
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: this year, I'm actually learning more like part of Aaron Judge.

697
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: It's like he came into the season without a contract. No,

698
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: he's playing for a big contract and he's gonna hit

699
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 1: sixty five home runs and potentially win the Triple Crown

700
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 1: for the fucking Yankees. You know. Impressive, that is Lamar Jackson.

701
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: Like the contract, the contract, the contract, couldn't figure it out?

702
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: Then he comes and he starts kicking everyone's ass. Like,

703
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 1: that's the level of focus that I would have died

704
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: for in my mid twenties, I didn't have it. I

705
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: would imagine most of you listening didn't have it. Can

706
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: you imagine the pressure the focus at that dicks. I'm

707
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: actually learning more about Lamar Jackson through this season that

708
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: I have the previous seasons, and I already learned a lot,

709
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 1: like the mental capacity on that guy. Let's just face it.

710
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: We have a long history of guys crumbling like a

711
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: cookie when they get put in this situation. And it's

712
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: not even that Like, it's very understandable. If you can't

713
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: handle the pressure, it's difficult. I mean the amount of

714
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: money hanging over your head when you turn down a

715
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: contractor or you can't come to terms like we're talking

716
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 1: you know, nine figures, right, So listen, I want Lamar

717
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: Jackson on my team if I'm the Ravens, I I

718
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: am continually trying to get this figured out because he

719
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 1: is just he's blown me away with how good he is.

720
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: Back at it with my man who's red hot, stucky

721
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: seven and three and uh, you know, one of the

722
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: great play so far of the Year. That the fade

723
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs, which you know the numbers backed it up,

724
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: didn't look pretty, but not only did they cover, they

725
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: won outright. And uh, Stucky you find him on Action Network.

726
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 1: You can find him Action Network podcast on Thursday's Big

727
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: Bets on campus. We know the guy loves I mean

728
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 1: Kentucky massive game, I mean Mark Stoops might be Coach

729
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 1: of the Year. On this page, Will levis kicking everyone's ass,

730
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: uh playing old Miss nine am kickoff for us on

731
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: the West Coast, So Stucky's bar we'll be getting after

732
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 1: with his titos and red bulls. What's up, my man?

733
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 1: What's going on? Man? Yeah, that I got a lot

734
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,919
Speaker 1: of your listeners were tweeting me for the Cults pick

735
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 1: and uh so I was glad that that came through.

736
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,359
Speaker 1: Harrison Bucker might get himself paid after that performance with

737
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: the chief Special teams. And yeah on the West Coast

738
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: nine am noon, uh Eastern. It is a fantastic early

739
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: slate for college football. So we'll get the weekend started

740
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 1: off right on Saturday before we dive into the National

741
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: Football League. What do you think, Kentucky, Ole Miss? You

742
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 1: like Kentucky in that game? I know it's on the road, right, Yeah,

743
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 1: it's the line keeps going up. So it's hard not

744
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: to like Kentucky at at seven, Chris Rodriguez will be

745
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: back to the Kentucky offensive line. It's still been a

746
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: little problematic. Chris Rodriguez fixes a lot of that. He

747
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 1: you know, gets a lot after tackle. I like the

748
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: under a little bit too. Old Miss offense has been

749
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: a little problematic. Stoops on the road and fourteen to

750
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 1: the under um in his career Kentucky. He talked all

751
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: week about, oh, now the run game is important because

752
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: everyone saw Chris Rodriguez. So I think that they're gonna

753
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: try to control the clock, you know, with Rodriguez, take

754
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 1: the crowd out of it, and uh, you know, the

755
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: Kentucky's defense doesn't allow a lot of explosive plays, neither

756
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: of his old Miss. So I think that you can

757
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: see the clock moving fast in this one and maybe

758
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,879
Speaker 1: look at the under sweet well, I'm fast. I haven't

759
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 1: really watched I guess I watched Will Levice against Florida.

760
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: But obviously he's uh you know, I mean, he's got

761
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: potential when the dust settles, who knows, I mean to

762
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: be a top two or three pick for sure, size

763
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 1: uh big arm and Kentucky's kicking everyone's ass. Let's diving

764
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: to the NFL and uh, I guess we could start

765
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 1: with the Ravens and the Bills. I mean the Bills.

766
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 1: I know you dive into these numbers. Statistically, that's got

767
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: to be one of the greatest outlier games in the

768
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 1: history of the league. Right what a ninety plays to

769
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 1: was nine. I mean, that's just probably historically an outlier

770
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: just in it's there's never been a ratio quite like that.

771
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: Uh fine six ninety six Jags. You gotta go back

772
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 1: to find a win like I lost, Like, what was

773
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 1: the play ratio in that game? Do you know? I

774
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 1: think it was like something crazy for five or thirty

775
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: eight or something was that was doubled up and then

776
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: the amount of the yards given up and over twenty

777
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: years ago, it's weird. I mean the Bills, clearly when

778
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: they were healthier, fantastic, but they're banged up. And then

779
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: you got the Ravens, who, you know, I thought was

780
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a Super Bowl contender, and not that they're not,

781
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: but they're the reason I thought that. I thought Their

782
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 1: defense was kind of like what we saw Sunday night

783
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: with the Broncos and the Niners. You just wouldn't be

784
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: able to score on them. But it turns out their

785
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: defense might not be uh exactly as good as we thought. Uh.

786
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: I guess you would just have to go with Lamar.

787
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: Jackson looks fantas stick so far this year scoring touchdown.

788
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 1: I mean last week he threw four ran one. Um,

789
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 1: I guess I would. I would probably stay away from

790
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: this game. But if I was gonna bet, I'd go

791
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: with the Ravens plus three. How about you? Yeah, yeah,

792
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 1: you got to take the points here, the Ravens plus

793
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: three and n f and plus three. It's first of all,

794
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: you're getting Hardball as a dog. He's one of the

795
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 1: great underdog NFL head coaches in NFL history, just behind

796
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: Tomlin and Peyton. The third most profitable is John Harball.

797
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 1: He's also four note against the spread as a home

798
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,919
Speaker 1: dog over the last four years while Lamar has been there.

799
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: This is one of the best staffs in the NFL,

800
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: one of the best special teams units in the NFL.

801
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 1: So you're gonna get all of those little things in

802
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: a big game. And look, by the way, the yeah,

803
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: the Ravens. The Bills had an outlier loss, so did

804
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: the Ravens. The Ravens had a one postgame win expectancy

805
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins and they you know, they gave up

806
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: a a bunch of explosive plays at the end. The

807
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: Dolphins scored twenty points. There was the last two Dolphins

808
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: wins by the way, so perception of the Ravens if

809
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 1: they had won that game. And if you know, the

810
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: Bills are one again, these are two three and oh teams.

811
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: The difference is the Buffalo is not the same team

812
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 1: they were coming into the year. Uh. You know, for example,

813
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: your your cornerbacks are decimated, your backups are now hurt.

814
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: You're missing an All Pro who's on I R. Now

815
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: you put another Pro Bowl safety on I R. And

816
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: Micah Hide His replacement came in last week and was dreadful.

817
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 1: He's now the lowest rated safety in the NFL. And

818
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: so much of what the Bills do it's predicated on

819
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: their two safeties on the back end and Hide employer.

820
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: They have injuries on the offensive line. They wore Downder

821
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 1: the third string center last week. Uh, if injuries, if

822
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis is still banged up, injuries on the defensive line.

823
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: So this team is wounded and is coming off you know,

824
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: another road game where they were cramping up on all

825
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,800
Speaker 1: across the field, and now you're going to a Baltimore

826
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 1: team that's that's a rolling offensively. I mean Lamar Jackson.

827
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: The big question coming into the here for me with Baltimore,

828
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,720
Speaker 1: I think they're out their defense. Will we find their secondary?

829
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: Now Peters and Humphrey are on on a pitch count

830
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 1: and they're back. They needed some edge rush help. That's

831
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 1: why they signed Pierre Paul and we'll see if Houston's healthy.

832
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: But I think their defense will figure it out and

833
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 1: be okay. It was Lamar against the Blitz and he's

834
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: shredded it. Um. You know, you go back to the

835
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: playoff game that the Bills won against the Page against

836
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,760
Speaker 1: the Ravens a couple of years ago, they blitz fifty

837
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: percent of the time Mark Jackson was lost. Lamar Jackson

838
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 1: had never thrown for three touchdowns at a hundred and

839
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: fift yards against the Blitz in his career. He did

840
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: it in the first half two weeks ago, and then

841
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: he did it again last week against the Patriots, who

842
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 1: blitz fifty percent of the time. So that this offense

843
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: is rolling home dog, great atmosphere against the wounded Bills team.

844
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,919
Speaker 1: I think you gotta take the points here, you would say. Really,

845
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 1: the only knock on Lamar, obviously elite player, great guy,

846
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: everyone's rooting for him, are the two playoff games that

847
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 1: stand out early on that Tennessee game when they punked him,

848
00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: I think a couple of years ago when they went

849
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: on that run, and then a couple of years later

850
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: that Bill's game. So when people just natch and I

851
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: kind of do it sometimes, can Lamar win the Super Bowl? Well,

852
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 1: if he continues to figure it out, like he is

853
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 1: every bit as dangerous as these other quarterbacks, right because

854
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: we've seen him doing the regular season. The knock is

855
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: just in the playoffs, can you fool them, well, we

856
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,400
Speaker 1: throw picks. Well, the passing game, you know, kind of

857
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 1: gets stalled. Well, if they can still be explosive in

858
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 1: the passing game, they just they have one of the

859
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: better offenses in the league, right yeah, yeah, And and

860
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,439
Speaker 1: look it's not the best. It's not the best receiving group.

861
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 1: He's never had the best receiving group. His offensive lines

862
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 1: in Bank. I mean, so last week he was playing

863
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 1: with a third string left tackle on his blind side,

864
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: rookie who had never played left tackle in college or

865
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 1: the NFL. You just got thrown in there. The NFL

866
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 1: baby was writing the Patriots. So yeah, I mean the

867
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 1: question with Lamar is what were the league now adjust too?

868
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 1: Because the Ravens have adjusted, but that the league is

869
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: by the time you get to the playoffs, it's like,

870
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: all right, here's all the film, here's what's worked, and

871
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 1: they don't have receivers that he's not the most accurate quarterback.

872
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 1: Now as they don't have receivers, are gonna go make

873
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 1: big plays in covers. So like it's kind of a

874
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: cat and mouse game. At first, everyone played zone and

875
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: said we have to face Lamar so he can't run,

876
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: and he shredded them early. So then they said let's

877
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 1: play screw this, let's play man and Lamark couldn't fit

878
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 1: it in the tight windows and he struggled. Um started

879
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: to you know, his accuracy issues were persisting. Then they

880
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 1: said let's add in the blitz covers zero blitz struggle

881
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: some more. Well, now this day had all offseason to

882
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,800
Speaker 1: work on this. It looks like against Man and the

883
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 1: blitz they've hads have some beaters there. So it's like, Okay,

884
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: what does the league now do to adjust to the

885
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,319
Speaker 1: obviously a unique talent and offense and the Ravens KA

886
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 1: Indy Tennessee the divisional matchup of two teams that might

887
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: not be any good. Uh Now, I I know they

888
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,800
Speaker 1: won last week, but to me, I I think Indie

889
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,959
Speaker 1: stinks and you know Tennessee. Not that I'm a huge

890
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: believer by any means, but you know, you, like you

891
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: just said with Hardba Tomlin, there there is something I

892
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 1: think Vrabel is really good. And clearly this is a

893
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 1: less talented team than he's had, given the injuries they

894
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 1: have and a J's got traded. But I just in

895
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 1: this situation, I'd have to take him with the points.

896
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 1: How about you? Yeah, I'm gonna disagree. I'm gonna take

897
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 1: the And by the way, you were right when we

898
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: went head to head last week with the lines ended

899
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 1: up covering should they all? Right? Now? All all he

900
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 1: does is cover? Um? Yeah, I'm taking the cult here

901
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 1: for one simple reason. I mean, look, I the Titans

902
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,280
Speaker 1: last week. I'm super low on the Titans and it's

903
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: no fault of Rabel. Let's this would happen with this

904
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 1: roster um it's and last week, yes, they beat the Raiders,

905
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: but the Raiders were in the reds and six times

906
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 1: and scored sixteen points, including a you know, a pick

907
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 1: that went off Waller's hands. The Titans got in the

908
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 1: region three times and scored three touchdowns and it still

909
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 1: came down to a two point conversion that the Raiders

910
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 1: couldn't execute on. I was not impressed with the Titans

911
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: last week. It's at the roster. It's void of talent.

912
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 1: You're not missing your best edge rusher, your your top

913
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,240
Speaker 1: receiver from last year, your left tackle, and best offensive lineman.

914
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: And I think what this boils down to is one

915
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: simple stat and it's if you look at the run.

916
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: If you look at the rush stats for both teams,

917
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: rush defense for Indie tops in the league. Should get

918
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 1: Leonard back to this week. So far, Tennessee dead last

919
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 1: in basic rush defense and rush explosive is defense. Everyone

920
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: is running all over them. No one is running on Indie.

921
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 1: Taylor should have a day here. I don't really trust

922
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,520
Speaker 1: Matt ryany so I'm falling over the field last week.

923
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,479
Speaker 1: But Taylor should have a day, and then Henry should

924
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 1: get bottled up, which then just crushes the play action game,

925
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,439
Speaker 1: which is all Tennessee has with their receivers. I think

926
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 1: ultimately the best unit on the field will be Indies

927
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,760
Speaker 1: defense at home. So if you can lay a field

928
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 1: goal or less, I'll roll with it. Um, but it's yeah,

929
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,440
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think ultimately the Jags win

930
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 1: this division. I think I'm with you. Uh, big game,

931
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: I mean Jack's Eagles. That's a honestly one of the

932
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: top two or three games this weekend. Who would have

933
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,839
Speaker 1: thought when the season started? Okay, uh, this, you know,

934
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: for the last fifteen years, would have been one of

935
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: the better games on the slate. Rogers Brady. Now you

936
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:17,399
Speaker 1: remove Brady Ship, you might remove Mac Jones as well.

937
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 1: This could be Rogers, Hoyer, lambeau Field. Um, there's a

938
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 1: lot of points. I mean nine and a half. I

939
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I think the Patriots I just

940
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: don't think they're very good. Now. I would be stunned

941
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,440
Speaker 1: if Mac plays. I know Belichick and those guys are

942
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 1: so weird with the injuries. Uh. Now, Mac hasn't exactly

943
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: let the world on fire this year. I mean he's

944
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 1: I think he's four or five picks so far, and

945
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 1: if he's injured, if somehow he is able to play,

946
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: that would seem pretty crazy to me. But you know,

947
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 1: maybe Billy's Appy comes out of the bullpen and gets

948
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,319
Speaker 1: the cover. I this is probably a stay away from me.

949
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: I know, uh, I know you're leaning one way here. Yeah.

950
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 1: I took the Patriots at ten and a half. You

951
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: can get double digits, I would take them. I I

952
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:10,120
Speaker 1: think it's just too many points for this Green Bay

953
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 1: offense to lay right now against not a good I

954
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: don't think the Patriots are good. They're not bad, just

955
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: an average team. And the Package are still trying to

956
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: figure out their offense. I mean, they didn't score in

957
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: the second half against the Bears. They came out with

958
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: a great game plan and Rogers was cooking against Tampa

959
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,720
Speaker 1: obviously an elite defense, and then they didn't score again

960
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 1: and they held on for a fourteen coolin. So without

961
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 1: Davante Adams, they're still trying to figure out what this

962
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 1: offense looks like. I'm assuming the Patriots will have, you know,

963
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: off a loss, will have a great game plan the

964
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 1: last night with the Patriots on the road after a loss,

965
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,799
Speaker 1: and by the way, you know, Belichick two and one

966
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:47,879
Speaker 1: against the spread off a loss. Some of that, yes,

967
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: is with Brady, but he's had success with Jones Newton

968
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: Castle in this spot. He's how about this, He's twenty

969
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,720
Speaker 1: five and three against the spread on the road after

970
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 1: a loss as either an underdog or a favorite of

971
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: less than seven points and three that includes nine to

972
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: know against the spread as an underdog after a loss

973
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 1: on the road. Obviously there's some Brady in there as well.

974
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 1: So you know, when I look at this game from

975
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: an next ose tempoid, there's a couple of things that

976
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 1: are you expect? Are you're expecting Hoyer to play in

977
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 1: this game? Yeah? Expect Toyer. Now, the last time Hoyer started,

978
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 1: he's lost eleven straight starts. He also, he's like six

979
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,319
Speaker 1: against the spread that he's covered his dog more times

980
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: than not. He was double digits catching double digits against

981
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and so the only time Belichick's Averyvon caught

982
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:33,880
Speaker 1: double digit his career a couple of years ago when

983
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 1: the Chiefs were rolling, he missed. He did forgot this,

984
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: you know, uh spiked the ball into the half points

985
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:43,400
Speaker 1: had a bad pick. So you gotta hope that death

986
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: doesn't happen then Stidham came in. Maybe Bailey's appy comes

987
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 1: in against the back door if that, if he plays

988
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 1: like that again, um, and I love Bailey Zappy, but yeah,

989
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: I expect Horrier at least knows the offense. But what

990
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: New England could do here is lean on its run game.

991
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: You can run the ball a little bit on your Bay, Joy,

992
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 1: your Alexander. Their top corners a little banged up. Um,

993
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,839
Speaker 1: I think they'll probably play really slow, shorten the game.

994
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: Green Bay also tends to play really conservative at the

995
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,880
Speaker 1: end of the games once they have a lead. Um.

996
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 1: And then another factor is the special teams. The Packers

997
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 1: special teams have been disastrous for two years. One of

998
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 1: the worst units in the NFL cost them a playoff

999
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 1: game last year. Patriots are always gonna be in the

1000
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: top half. M Nick Folk, who never misses from under fifties,

1001
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 1: think he's made fifty four in a row. Some hidden

1002
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 1: points there, Belichick off the loss double digits against the

1003
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: Packers often still trying to figure itself out. I'll take it,

1004
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: but it's a hold your nose play. Okay, Uh, you

1005
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: know you were on the Raiders last week. I it

1006
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 1: was hard for me to disagree with you. Uh, they

1007
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: just something feels off with them. You know. There have

1008
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,920
Speaker 1: been a lot of just on the social media breakdowns Derek,

1009
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,280
Speaker 1: him and Davonte not being on the same page clearly.

1010
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: I you know, having followed Car's career since Fresno State,

1011
00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: I think he's under so much pressure in his own

1012
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,320
Speaker 1: head and he's just not playing that well. Uh in

1013
00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 1: in what's crazy because he's got Waller, he's got Davante,

1014
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: he's got Josh. It's just not really worked now they're in.

1015
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 1: There's no team given their expectations coming in the season.

1016
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 1: Probably that's more must I mean you go on four like,

1017
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:18,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we headed towards like a six win season.

1018
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 1: But I don't love the matchup here. Like I listen

1019
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 1: to the Broncos offense, something's off, but that defense is legit.

1020
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the team speed, the pass, rush

1021
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,879
Speaker 1: the corners. I mean they can put Sir Tan fall

1022
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:36,400
Speaker 1: around Davante. He's elite. I think it's gonna be hard, Like,

1023
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: this is not the game that you want to be in.

1024
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: Must win just given the defensive matchup for an offense

1025
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 1: that clearly they're just not on the same page, you know,

1026
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: And it's just which is crazy given their talent. I

1027
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,919
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if I could lay money

1028
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:52,840
Speaker 1: on the Broncos because I don't trust what Hackett and Russell,

1029
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 1: But I have a hard time seeing the Raiders flourish

1030
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: against this defense. Yeah, I'm hesitantly back the Raiders here

1031
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,239
Speaker 1: if it they If it doesn't work out, it might

1032
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: be the last time all season. And yeah, could you

1033
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: agree that the matchup of of their offense. Do you

1034
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:14,359
Speaker 1: view the Broncos defensive top notch? Yeah? I know they're

1035
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,840
Speaker 1: they're start top ten unit for sure, with with up

1036
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:22,479
Speaker 1: with upside for top five and um the but here's

1037
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:26,839
Speaker 1: the thing. This is sort of a perception thing in that, yes,

1038
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 1: there's something there's something well with both these teams, the

1039
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 1: Broncos offenses, in that Russell Wilson looks like he's uh

1040
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer and he might be washed a little bit.

1041
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: He also just isn't being Russell Wilson in this offense.

1042
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:46,800
Speaker 1: He can't run around. That's how he makes places. Without

1043
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,439
Speaker 1: that Russellison, you might as well to bring back Drew

1044
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: lock if you're not gonna let him run around and

1045
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: sit in the pocket. He's been one of the worst

1046
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL with a clean pocket too. If

1047
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: you just look at completion percentage over expectation fourth worst,

1048
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 1: and we're talking about guys like uh and Gino Smith

1049
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:02,960
Speaker 1: has been a lot better than him throwing the ball.

1050
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: It's crazy. So I'm good at there's some expectation here,

1051
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 1: like the perception of yes, there's something off with the Raiders.

1052
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: But they almost win that game against Tennessee. They go

1053
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,360
Speaker 1: one of twelve and third down, they score sixteen points

1054
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 1: in the red zone, Waller drops two touchdown passes, they

1055
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,399
Speaker 1: lose by two because they don't get a two point

1056
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 1: conversion late. Okay, they were right there. They played the

1057
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: Chargers even statistically in Week one on the road when

1058
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: the Chargers were healthy, when I think the charge are healthy,

1059
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: one of the best rosters in NFL. And then they

1060
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 1: took their foot off the gas. Up three touchdowns in

1061
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: the first half, lose on a fluke maybe the two

1062
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 1: point conversion, by the way, two if to two point

1063
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:47,240
Speaker 1: conversions go differently, they could be two and one um

1064
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,280
Speaker 1: and then they lose them overtime on a Hunter Rentfro fumble.

1065
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, things aren't right, but like they could easily

1066
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 1: be three and oh two and one and set the

1067
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 1: rowing three. And on the other hand, Denver could be

1068
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 1: oh and three, you know, Jimmy geta and step out

1069
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: of bounds. Uh, and the Texans like they had to

1070
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: fight tooth and now will beat the Texans at home

1071
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 1: in Denver where they're always good early in the year

1072
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 1: with that attitude advantage. So yeah, there's some there's I

1073
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 1: just don't trust this Denver offense yet. And the Raiders

1074
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: there's something off and I don't trust me Daniels. But

1075
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 1: they haven't been as bad as everyone is making it

1076
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,359
Speaker 1: like they are right in games. I'll give them one

1077
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 1: more shot to get this done because I think Russell

1078
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: Wilson coming out after the win over San fran and

1079
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:34,319
Speaker 1: saying this is a championship effort. Like the other two

1080
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:38,200
Speaker 1: stepped out of bounds. Um like that, that's the championship effort.

1081
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 1: So I don't think they're gonna make any dress to changes.

1082
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 1: Yet I do love that hack it said, Okay, I

1083
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,360
Speaker 1: don't know how to do game management. They brought a

1084
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 1: Ravens guy in. I like that, like admitting your mistakes,

1085
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 1: but Russ is off. Now I'll trust the Raiders one

1086
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 1: more shot. I hope they throw it at Adam's thirty times. Um,

1087
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,439
Speaker 1: but everyone is is it's a week to week league.

1088
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:01,399
Speaker 1: Everyone is making way too much of the Raiders owing

1089
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:05,240
Speaker 1: three start because I agree with the Broncos enough enough

1090
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:09,760
Speaker 1: of slap flap, because they could easily being three and

1091
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 1: the Raiders could be three and O like, it's not

1092
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 1: They're not that far off. But there is something off

1093
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:18,279
Speaker 1: with both. I agree both these two teams fall under

1094
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 1: the umbrella like stud players kind of everywhere, Like I mean,

1095
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean the Max Crosby looks fantastic this year, and

1096
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 1: obviously they got studs on offense. Same Broncos Chandler Jones,

1097
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 1: Chanleng Jones. That's been a disaster signing so far. For sure.

1098
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,000
Speaker 1: The one thing that would make me nervous in this

1099
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 1: game is the Raiders offensive line. That Broncos, I mean,

1100
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory was flying around last week. This is a

1101
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:43,680
Speaker 1: this is an interesting watch, you know whatever. This is

1102
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: gonna be fascinating because if the Raiders going four, Josh M.

1103
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,279
Speaker 1: Daniels a one and done guy, and like you said,

1104
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 1: the Broncos at any moment they can lose again, and

1105
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it feels like their franchise on fire. Yeah.

1106
00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,839
Speaker 1: I saw someone on Twitter say, uh, Belichick didn't name

1107
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:06,359
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator because he knew McDaniels, which, honestly, who

1108
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: knows could have Belichick? You know that they might win

1109
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,320
Speaker 1: through four games, Belichick gets fired, mutually departs. Josh McDaniel

1110
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 1: just goes back and becomes a head coach. I could

1111
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,360
Speaker 1: I can see that. Keep an eye on that one. Yeah.

1112
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: By the way, I saw you tweeting about Mark Davis

1113
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: the other day. I Uh. I was in Vegas and

1114
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 1: a casino hammered maybe I think a year two two,

1115
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 1: two and a half years ago, and I'm walking through

1116
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: the Venetian and I see Mark Davis walking right by me,

1117
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 1: by himself, and he's walking out towards the valet. I

1118
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 1: just stopped, hammered and start talking. I say hey, and

1119
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,319
Speaker 1: I start talking about football. He talks to me and

1120
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,240
Speaker 1: walks with me, talking about the Raiders in the NFL

1121
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: for about six minutes, and then I shake his hand

1122
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,440
Speaker 1: and I stumbled up to my room. It was amazing.

1123
00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 1: I'll say this, people think I'm Mark Davis Hayter. I

1124
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 1: do make fun of him, so I mean it's it's

1125
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: funny on social media when you interact with him one

1126
00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 1: on one. I've only talked to a couple owners in

1127
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: my life. He is as normal of a human that

1128
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 1: can possibly own a major franchise in the world. But yeah, no,

1129
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: you would not. He is. He is a man of

1130
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 1: the people. Stucky, Well, let's win some money. Go Kentucky

1131
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 1: Wildcats and uh Raider's Broncos. Can't wait for that one

1132
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 1: in the afternoon. Yeah, it should be a hell of

1133
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:45,320
Speaker 1: the weekend. Good luck later, bro. The volume
