WEBVTT - 10/04/21 DPS Hour 2 0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:03.640 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.680 --> 0:00:07.760 Sports Radio eight seven seven three DP shows the phone 0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:11.760 number operator Marvin standing by. You can also email tweet 0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:14.280 we say good morning to Peacock or a streaming partner 0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:20.840 and our radio affiliates around the country, including Madison, Wisconsin, Chico, California, 0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:25.479 and Radford, Virginia. Poll question McLevin, who felt like the 0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:28.200 biggest winner last night? Sixty five percents A mac Jones, 0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:31.720 thirty one percent Tom Brady and only two percent Bill Belichick. 0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:37.279 Well he did stop Brady. I mean, if you but this, 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:42.120 Bill Belichick doesn't deal in moral victories. Tom Brady doesn't. 0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:46.640 Mac Jones maybe privately feels like, Man, I went toe 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:49.879 to toe with Tom Brady in the biggest game that 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:52.040 I've had in the NFL, one of the biggest games 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:55.360 of my career, and he's got to feel good about that. 0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:57.920 I don't like the fact that they didn't go for 0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:00.760 it on fourth and three. And here's the math in 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:03.600 case you're just joining us. I've mentioned this twice already, 0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:05.920 but it's fourth and three. They're a little less than 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.800 a minute to go, and if you go for it, 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:11.839 even if you don't get it, at least you've gone 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.520 for it, because I don't want Brady getting the ball back. 0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:16.559 We're going to try to kick a fifty six yard 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.240 or in the rain, and then we're going to give 0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:21.480 Brady a little less than a minute to go with 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:26.120 two timeouts. I don't like that. It feels like gaining 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:30.119 three or four yards is a little more attainable than 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:33.840 a fifty six yard field goal. Peter King joined us 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:35.800 in the first hour and he said that the word 0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:39.919 was nick folk. His plant leg was not one hundred percent. 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.200 So I'm asking my field goal kicker, who is not 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.480 a long field goal kicker, to go out there in 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:49.680 the rain with a plant leg that's not one hundred percent, 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:53.240 and if he makes it, Tom Brady still has fifty 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:56.560 five seconds to go and kick the game winning field goal. 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:00.720 Mac Jones was doing a great job. There was a 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:04.920 comfort zone there. But Bill Belichick was asked about why 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:09.320 he didn't go for it. Was there any consideration of 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:12.000 going for it on the lot for it down when 0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:21.800 you kick the field at the end, I mean not really. Okay, 0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:25.160 first of all, it's a fair question, and that you 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:31.320 didn't have any thought on that. You should like, I'm shocked. 0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:35.600 Now he might say, yeah, we did give it some thought, 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:39.200 but but he doesn't want to be questioned on strategy, 0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:42.160 Like who were you to ask me something about strategy. 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:47.640 That's a legitimate question, And hopefully somebody follows up today 0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:50.800 or tomorrow when Belichick gets in front of the media, 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.720 because I am curious, like, if I just do the 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.360 football math here, of I don't want Tom Brady to 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:01.400 have the ball back, I feel better about my quarterback, 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:06.079 who has played really well, outplayed Brady getting four yards, 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:09.000 and then we keep the clock moving, we get in 0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:14.000 better field position for an easier field goal, instead of 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.079 let's take a chance and if he makes it, what happens, 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.200 Brady still gets the ball back with fifty five seconds 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:24.440 to go. That's all I mean. The media is covering 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:28.399 the wrong thing today. Did they did they hug? How 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.640 long did they hug for that? That's not the story. 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:37.080 The story is the actual game itself, the strategy here, 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:40.000 and I don't get it. I don't get it at all. 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.960 You had a reporter who came in late to the 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:46.320 press conference that didn't go well. Here's here's that reporter, 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:49.320 Hey Bill, I may have missed it. I just got 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.080 got in here earlier, but um, what did you see 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.680 you seeing Tom Brady play so many games over so long, 0:03:56.240 --> 0:04:00.600 this game with all the emotions and obviously the chess 0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:04.400 match against you, what what did you see from Tom 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:08.320 tonight that that may have kept it as competitive as 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:13.400 it was? Yeah, I think we already covered that. That's 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:19.520 one of my first questions. First of all, first of 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:25.359 all asked the question, Oh, like, that's one of those 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:27.919 big wind ups. And then you know, you throw a 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:32.000 forty eight mile in our fenceball? Do you? I mean, 0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:34.680 do you really think that's where? Don't you ask a 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:38.240 reporter who's there? Hey? Has anybody asked this? How many 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:42.280 questions are we in here? Like? Bright, that's Tom? Sorry, 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:43.839 I just got and you may have already answered this. 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:48.320 It's like, oh, buddy, you can't give you can't give 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:51.440 Bill Belichick that. Yes, Lob does that report? I think 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:55.800 nobody asked about Tom Brady. Bill, I'm a little late here. 0:04:55.880 --> 0:05:00.520 Did anybody ask about Tom Brady? Uh? What just you tonight? 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:06.560 From Tom? We've already we've already covered them. Yes, and 0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.760 you're asking it in a nervous apologetic way, especially for 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.080 someone who's kind of a bully. If you're dealing with 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.400 the Belichick type, you better at least bring some confidence 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:18.480 to the inflection in your voice. If you don't know 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:22.080 if it's been asked, then you have to ask somebody 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:26.320 next to you. You just do and you have to 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:30.000 assume that it's been asked and ask about next week's 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:34.520 opponent without the bat Yeah, Hey, Bill, you onto your 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:38.040 next game? Isn't it interesting? Like? And I know you've 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:39.520 been through this the only times when you have to 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:41.160 calculus of where do I go? Do I go to 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.080 the opposing locker room? Do I go to the coaches 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:46.640 press conference? I'm sure you've run into the situation hundreds 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.880 of times. Yes, do you go into the losing locker room? 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:53.000 Usually the losing locker room is the more interesting one. 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:57.640 And I would have gone into Belichick's press conference before 0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:01.080 I would have gone into Brady's because I might get 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:04.560 something out of Belichick, who talks about the night the 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:08.800 strategy Mac Jones. Brady's just going to say, basically, hey, 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.280 you know, I appreciate coming back, thanks for the outpouring. 0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.400 We're just happy to get a win. Bill might give 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:17.880 you a little bit more there, but you can't you 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:21.920 can't go in there and go, hey, I just want 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.200 to I don't know if this has been asked or not, 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.680 but as soon as I heard that, I go, oh, 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:29.360 this is not going to go well. Not going to 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:33.960 go well. Eight seven seven three d P show email 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.400 address DP at dan Patrick dot com. And by the way, 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:39.320 I've been in these moments, I've made these mistakes. So 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.719 it's not like I go oh, holier than now, as 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:47.080 I have preached to my students at Full Sale University 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:53.360 to the Danats, just ask the damn question. Don't surround it. 0:06:55.279 --> 0:07:01.880 Just ask the question. What surprised you about Tom Brady tonight? Anything, 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.360 But don't do a big wind up. So you ask 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.559 a question, answer a question, then ask a question not good? 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:14.400 Ask answer asking horrible? Horrible? You want to get on 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.840 my bad side? Do that, Todd? I would know anything 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.280 about that? Yes, you would? You lead the league and 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:22.920 ask answer, I'm going to send you to Full Sale 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.000 University for a year. Can we can we send Todd 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:30.440 to a Patriots game and have him ask Bill, He'll 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:34.600 never get credentialed. I don't think we could get you 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.320 credentialed when that happens. How much of it is just 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:41.240 a bad rambling question versus the media person is trying 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:44.120 to feel like the show off knowledge or something. They're 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.080 saying a bunch of things to show things that they 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.560 like already know and want you to know that they're 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:52.040 the god intelligent Dodd, you just did the damn same 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:54.440 damn thing. That's an example of what you don't do. 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.280 Don't do that if you're in the sports and media industry. 0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:00.440 Ask answer and ask if that was a purpose that 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:03.280 was genius Todd, But it wasn't on profits no, because 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:06.040 he went, oh I did, Yeah, I just love it. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.200 I've talked to the Patriots PR person before about one. 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:13.240 Todd Fritz same as anybody NFL team Todd friends. Todd 0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:16.320 Fritz haunts my nightmares. He will get hit he will 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:19.160 hit up Stacy James. It's two am every every Sunday 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:21.360 for ten years. There's no way he's getting your creditial. 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.280 He's public enemy number one to Stacy James, who is 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.280 the PR director, the media director for the pager. I'm 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.320 always very polite. Sometimes it's in an off hour, but 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:30.880 since I'm not like waking them up in the middle 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:32.640 of night. There's a message if they get it, If 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:34.560 they're up. If not, they'll get it in the next morning. 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:37.559 Did you ask for Belichick today? I always ask for Belia, 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:42.800 all right? You never know when you never know. I 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:46.040 know that's that's my life model. You never know. When 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:49.240 I always tell you you might be doing more damage. 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.280 You might make it tougher to actually get somebody because 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:54.840 the PR person is probably gonna go, oh God. But 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:56.480 if you get the response like you just want to 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:57.840 let you know. I don't want to waste your time. 0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:00.120 I'm sure you're pursuing other guests. This is never we're 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:02.320 gonna happen, or it's not gonna happen this year, then 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.240 I would stop. But if it's like thanks for asking, 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:08.520 he's unavailable, that invites me to continue. I know they're 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.360 trying to be polite. Eventually maybe he'll be available. No, 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:17.520 he's not going to be available. He's not. But I 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:21.480 always tell you to pick your spots. Just pick your spots. Tough. 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.120 It's tough for me to do. I know. I like 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.680 to believe that anything is possible unless I get an absolute, 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:29.760 definitive no. But when the Great Bill Murray pulls me 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:35.800 aside and says, this guy Todd Fritz tell him to 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:44.840 stop calling, and I go, okay, I will Bill. He said, please, Bill. 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:49.360 Bill's never serious about anything, and here he's saying please. 0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:53.000 It was one of the most maybe his most dramatic 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.080 role ever. If you said Bill was still on that 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:58.720 in the movie, you'd go, my god, is he dramatic? 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:00.440 If I just get a response, if to get back 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.200 to me the time we fashion, I'm really, you know, 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.199 my bark is much worse than my bite. I'm just 0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:07.840 asking for a response to not respond that invites me 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:09.440 to continue to follow up. Maybe he didn't get the 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:12.440 message and it was deleted by accident. I think I 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:14.680 just figured out what Bill Murray said to Scarlett Johanson 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.240 at the end of Los Angeles. Please have Fritzie stopped 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.120 calling me? If you know Dan Patrick at all, That's 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:22.520 what he whispered. If you had to ask the question 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.640 the last two undefeated teams in the NFL this season, 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:27.920 I don't think many people would have guessed that it 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:30.520 would be the Cardinals and the Raiders. The Raiders play tonight. 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:34.840 Cardinals won yesterday Vegas, an underdog Tonight at home against 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.400 the Chargers. We could have only one undefeated team after 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:44.120 tonight and it's a three point line. But what they 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:47.440 did yesterday against the Rams, they dominated a team a 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:49.240 lot of people think are going to be the favorites 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:52.520 to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. Cardinals have 0:10:52.640 --> 0:10:55.760 collected a lot of talent on offense. They got pass catchers. 0:10:55.840 --> 0:11:00.240 You got Dalandery Hopkins, JJ Green, Christian Kurt Rondale More 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:03.440 a rookie tight end. Max Williams is playing well. They 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:07.720 got a run game with Chase Edmonds, James Conna. The 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:12.920 defense impressive against the Rams offense. I don't normally give 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:15.040 Cliff Kingsbury a lot of credit, but I have to 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:18.760 on this because he's had a lot of doubters. Right 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:22.880 now he's coaching maybe the most impressive team in the NFL. 0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:26.920 It's only four weeks, but you still have to have 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.160 those little check marks where you go, how did you 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.760 do against that team? When the Packers went to San 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.480 Francisco and won, that's a check mark where you go, okay, 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:39.640 all right, there's some account accountability there being able to 0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:43.040 do that in a big moment. The Rams have Seattle 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:47.120 this weekend, mcclevend or, they have San Francisco. Rams are 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:52.000 at Seattle Thursday at oh man, how good it is? Then? Yeah, 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.960 did you walk away from the Rams? Cardo's worry about 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:58.240 the Rams now because they were they were the hot team? No, No, 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.600 it takes a lot to get worried about a team. 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:06.000 I mean, if you're owing four, you know they just 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:09.000 shut down Tom Brady and company. Yes, time. Now, after 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:10.560 that Rams lost to the Cardinals, do you want the 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.280 extra time to prepare for another division opponent or you 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.920 want to quickly get that loss out of your system 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:20.840 and play up three days four days later? You asked 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:23.280 that was good, wasn't it? And then you gave me 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:28.200 two options. I thought that was okay. No, if you're 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:32.200 the Rams, are you glad that you're playing on Thursday? 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.000 Or would you prefer to have the extra No? No, no, 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:38.360 that's just what's the question. My question is is it 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.360 in the rams best interest to go right out and 0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:43.559 play a game on Thursday? Okay, it gets a division 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:49.760 moment after losing badly to the Cardinal at home? Can 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:51.680 we edit this and I can play it in front 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:56.160 of my studentship? Yeah, like you want to know what 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:59.480 not to do right here? Yes, Boie, last year Arizona 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:02.880 Cardinals they were five, and I think they were five 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:04.640 and two. They just won. They beat in New York 0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:06.600 to beat Dallas, beat Seattle, and then they had a 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:08.760 bye week, and everyone's on the bandwagon. I think I 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:11.760 was yelling about Kyler Murray for the MVP. Then they 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.320 lost four of the next five, you know, and it 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:19.320 cooled off a lot. Yeah. Uh, you know it's a 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.240 tough division. But you know, you have to have a 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:26.120 couple of statement games, and they they had a statement 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.280 game yesterday. I mean, if you're thinking about could it 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.760 have gone any better, I'd say no. And you know 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:36.160 the Cowboys, I said, if you're three and one, that's great, 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.400 and I said they could be eight and two after 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:45.280 ten games. You've got a legitimate cornerback, you've got a 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:48.600 legitimate linebacker. You got a running game that keeps the 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:52.120 defense off the field. Dak looks really good. They look 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:56.480 like they look better every week. They feel more well 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:59.320 rounded as a team. They're in a division that's not 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:02.600 very good. Even though the Giants won that game and 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:08.040 Washington Football team won their game as well, but you know, 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.640 you got it. You got the Giants come into town 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:14.480 next week, and then you got the Patriots, and then 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:17.160 you have a bye week. But if you're looking at 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.960 the Cowboys now you have every reason to believe in 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:26.200 that offense. And Trayvon Diggs and Micah Parsons just having 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:28.360 two of those guys. We look at the Rams defense 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:31.320 and you got Jalen Ramsey and Aaron Donald. That's all 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:35.760 you want. Give me two impact players on defense. And 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:39.600 as long as you have decent players around these great players. 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.560 If I have a cornerback who takes away one side 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:47.600 of the field, what a weapon. And then Micah Parsons 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:50.480 line him up in a variety of places, you know, 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.160 disguise what you do, make them, you know, keep an 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:55.920 eye on him and Dak and you know, zeke I 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.920 love Pollard. You run the football. You got those wide receivers, 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:03.120 you got a tight end like you know, they're formidable. 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:05.960 But maybe they're going to be an eight and two 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:10.880 team after ten games, which may surprise some people. All Right, 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.720 we'll take a break, we'll come back. We'll give you 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.000 our best and worst of the weekend and more of 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.760 your phone calls as well.

The other thing is Alabama being this 0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:45.880 good good for college football because they haven't No one's 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:49.120 really challenging them yet. Or is that because the teams 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.640 aren't great. It feels like Georgia and Alabama separated themselves. 0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:57.440 Alabama always does. It feels like Georgia, like those two 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:00.800 meet in the SEC title game. The loser is still 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.720 going to play in the Final four. I think they're 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.160 that good, Yes to and now I explained such a 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:08.280 drop off. I know they lost Trevor Lawrence, but not 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:11.160 even the top twenty five Clemson anymore, and struggling to 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.920 get past Boston College. I'm watching that game. Boston College 0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:17.000 should have won it. I mean, I watched a lot 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:20.600 of college football. I watched KSE State in Oklahoma. I 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:28.000 watched Notre Dame Cincinnati, Cincinnati. That's a that's a really 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.600 good defense, and that's one of those where you go, man, 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:34.440 they must have everything going their way. They didn't get lucky. 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.280 They were better than Notre Dame. They looked faster than 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:40.360 Notre Dame. Ritter is a good quarterback for them, and 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:43.280 Luke Fickle has done a wonderful job there at Cincinnati. 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:46.680 The Oregon game, I kept going, is Oregon gonna wake 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:50.080 up and realize you're gonna throw away an opportunity to 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:54.960 be in the final four play for a national championship. Yikes? 0:16:55.760 --> 0:17:00.400 Not good? Not good? Bill Belichick was he met with 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.440 the media this morning, and I wondered if people would 0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:06.840 follow up on what should be the storyline of this game, 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:10.680 Belichick not going forward and fourth and three because everybody 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:15.840 is looking at one storyline? Did Brading Belichick hug? How 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.520 about the game itself? Fourth and three under a minute ago? 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:24.280 Go for it? Here's Bill Belichick this morning, just on 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:27.040 the decision that kicked the fifty six yard or how 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:30.720 much was there any thought that even if Nick makes 0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:33.560 that that, do we want to give the ball back 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:36.800 to the offense, Like when you're making that decision, is 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:39.600 that even part of the consideration or is it simply 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:43.480 the kick the kick itself you know can make. Is 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:46.840 it's the distance we want to go from here. Yeah, 0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:49.200 I really want much of a decision there, and we 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:54.399 converted to third downs in the game. Nick had kicked. Well, no, 0:17:54.600 --> 0:18:00.640 that wasn't any consideration, all right, apparently no consideration and whatsoever. 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.199 You know, it's not like he's waffling. He stayed with 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:08.280 the same answer there. I don't agree with it, but 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:10.720 I don't want Brady to have the ball back with 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.480 fifty five seconds to go in two time outs. Just don't. Yeah. 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:17.359 See it's interesting to hear him say that too, because 0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:19.480 you're like, hey, you know, what a great time to 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:22.119 show like I believe in this quarterback, in this offense 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.439 and we can get that ball. And he's like, no, no, 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:26.880 I don't believe in that. Yeah, he's like, we only 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:28.920 got two. We converted two third downs the whole game. 0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.040 There's like almost no chance we were going to get that. 0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:33.760 And do we really think he's going to admit to 0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:37.160 a mistake where he goes you know, on second thought, 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:41.040 we should have gone for Like, he's not going to 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:43.640 do that. If they had gone for it and didn't 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:46.520 get it, oh, I would have no problem. It's a 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:50.080 fifty six yarder in the rain. I don't want Tom 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:52.399 Brady to have the ball back. That's all I kept. 0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:54.480 I always look at how much time is left on 0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:58.600 the clock for these great quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers got 0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:03.800 a minute left timeouts. Oh that's not good, Russell Wilson, Nope, 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:06.600 that's not good. There's a there's a certain group of 0:19:06.680 --> 0:19:09.040 quarterbacks where you go, oh, we love too much time 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.960 on the clock. Yeah, mclub, especially because they get four 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:14.960 downs in that situation. Yeah, that makes it much harder 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.760 to stop them. Bit Yeah, you're gonna run the clock down. 0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:20.960 You're gonna kick a field goal. That's more manageable. And 0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:25.119 I don't get Brady the opportunity to beat me. And 0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:27.960 you get that first down. Imagine you get that first down. 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:34.639 I mean, now you you're gonna have a reason. You 0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:36.919 can run the ball a couple of times. Put it 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:39.439 on the hash mark where you want to. Now you 0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:43.640 have a little better chance. Fifty six yarder in the rain. 0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:48.119 Didn't like it at all, but more importantly, going for 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:51.520 it keeps the ball away from Tom Brady. Best and 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:54.080 worst of the weekend, Todd, I'll start with you my 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:57.440 best of the weekend. Texas running back b Jean Robinson 0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:00.679 rushes for a career high two hundred and sixteen DA TCU. 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.240 The Longhorns take down the horn Frogs thirty two twenty seven, 0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:06.520 also two tds for Robinson. Worst the previously eighth ranked 0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:08.840 Razorbacks a no show and happens. I know we mentioned 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.600 it earlier, getting blank thirty seven nothing. The Bulldogs had 0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:14.200 a twenty one nothing lead after one quarter and didn't 0:20:14.200 --> 0:20:17.359 even have injured quarterback J T. Daniels Mick Lovin. I 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:19.239 don't know if this is best or worse, but my 0:20:19.480 --> 0:20:22.560 Philadelphia Eagles, Jail and Hurts had three touchdowns taken off 0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:24.600 the board and still ended up with almost four hundred 0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:27.679 yards and two tds. He's had six tds taken off 0:20:27.720 --> 0:20:29.520 the board because of penalties this year. The Eagles are 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:33.080 having a penalty problem. He's actually sneaky, playing really well, 0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:35.639 and the retz of the team is not good. The 0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:38.640 worst is definitely I was so excited for old Miss 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:43.920 Alabama and Mississippi just couldn't compete from pretty much see 0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:46.080 they had some chances, but not so good. And then 0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:51.679 Lane Kiffin said get your pompcorn ready prior to and 0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:54.960 then the mascot brought out a big thing of popcorn there. 0:20:56.680 --> 0:20:58.840 Did you see the CBS guys all had popcorn in 0:20:58.840 --> 0:21:01.959 front of them for their pregame show, like like New 0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:05.960 highs Oh god time. But even after the popcorning remark, 0:21:06.000 --> 0:21:08.159 he threw down his headset and ran away. Just he 0:21:08.280 --> 0:21:09.719 was asking him like one more because what's the big 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:12.960 surprise you have for just threw his headstone. Yeah, there 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:15.920 was a promo right after the games on CBS. Tune 0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:18.840 in next week Arkansas versus Old Miss number three versus 0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:21.240 number six. They didn't factor in where they're gonna drop to. 0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:23.120 I was like, you're better get that from up now. 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:26.639 With those rankings Seaton Best and Worst of the Weekend's funny. 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:29.600 My best of the weekend that touchdown Lamar Jackson to 0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:33.680 Hollywood Brown forty nine yards. That catch was just Hollywood 0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:36.160 Brown cop one. Dude, that's a hell of a catch though. 0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:39.720 Good grief, um. And the worst of the weekend is 0:21:39.720 --> 0:21:43.879 actually me last night watching the game and there was 0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:46.040 this moment where you know, like you do the whole 0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:48.200 pregame and you're like, oh look Tommy, and you cry 0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:49.800 and you're like we love you, and then the game 0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:52.600 starts and you're supposed to like switch gears back into 0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:56.919 Patriot because Patriot fans. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're Patriots fans, right, 0:21:57.080 --> 0:21:58.879 And so we're watching the game and there's this moment 0:21:58.960 --> 0:22:01.640 in the game where Leonard Fournette he has a run 0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:04.120 to the right but then cuts back to the left 0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:05.840 and like sort of gets around the corner and runs 0:22:05.880 --> 0:22:08.919 in for the first down. And I'm watching and I'm like, 0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:11.480 all right, there you go, kid, good run. And my 0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:13.920 family looked at me, like, what the hell is wrong 0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:15.479 with you? Which team are you rooting for? And I 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:17.600 was like, I don't know. I got all of a sudden, 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:19.399 I got so confused. I was like, who am I? 0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:21.880 Who are we right now? What are we doing? Who 0:22:21.920 --> 0:22:25.800 are very confusing? Paulist Works of the Weekend The Kentucky 0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.639
