Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that Chuck Norris was chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
- 0:05Speaker 2: The Rex was not chasing the Jeep. Murray! Murray, you there?
- 0:10Speaker 2: You love sandwiches, huh? Let's go to 80. His name
- 0:14Speaker 2: is Bo. Wow. That's prime time, baby. I had a
- 0:18Speaker 2: crush on Betty Rubble.
- 0:19Speaker 1: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went
- 0:22Speaker 1: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Coachman was black. He cost them the game last night.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Although they won the game. You're listening to Stugatz and Company. Three, two, one.
- 0:35Speaker 1: It is Stugatz and Company presented by FanDuel and the
- 0:37Speaker 1: FanDuel Sportsbook. We'll do college football with T-Bob and Bear.
- 0:41Speaker 1: College football with Stugatz and Bear coming up later. Trey
- 0:44Speaker 1: Wingo will join us to talk some NFL. Frank Caliendo
- 0:46Speaker 1: on the weekend observation. So a lot to get to
- 0:51Speaker 1: here today. A big week in the NFL. Ton of
- 0:54Speaker 1: great games. Ton of close games. I have no idea
- 0:57Speaker 1: who's good, who's bad. All I know is the Chiefs
- 0:59Speaker 1: are undefeated. The Chiefs are always there for us. Mikey,
- 1:04Speaker 1: I was greeted by Taylor today with this sentence. I
- 1:09Speaker 1: find nothing charming about Philadelphia Eagle fans.
- 1:17Speaker 3: I get it.
- 1:18Speaker 4: I sent Taylor a video this morning. And he responded
- 1:22Speaker 4: with a thumbs up like, I know what you're doing.
- 1:26Speaker 4: And I know exactly why he said that.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Why did you say it, Taylor?
- 1:31Speaker 5: Because I feel like we give Philadelphia a lot of
- 1:34Speaker 5: credit for just being like terrible people. And it's like
- 1:37Speaker 5: we just kind of excuse it as saying. Oh, they're
- 1:39Speaker 5: just really passionate about their team. They're kind of scumbag,
- 1:43Speaker 5: trash human beings. No offense to Philadelphia.
- 1:47Speaker 2: I'm certain they won't take any sort of offense to that.
- 1:49Speaker 1: But they did go and egg their offensive coordinator's house
- 1:54Speaker 1: last year.
- 1:54Speaker 2: And I believe it was after a win.
- 1:58Speaker 5: And then their fans are having like middle finger back
- 2:02Speaker 5: and forth with the Rams coaching staff. And the fans,
- 2:05Speaker 5: the video Mikey sent, we have that sound actually. The
- 2:09Speaker 5: fans after the game, they're just crying about everything. This
- 2:12Speaker 5: is that sound from this news broadcast.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Coach doesn't kick a field goal. Bad coaching again. Sirianni
- 2:18Speaker 2: blew the game again for the... Ons most times. Nick
- 2:23Speaker 2: ain't it. Nick ain't it. Nick is cute. He's angry.
- 2:28Speaker 1: He can scream, but he doesn't make the team come
- 2:32Speaker 1: out of halftime and be the team.
- 2:35Speaker 2: What's happening at halftime? Are we eating meatball subs?
- 2:41Speaker 4: Did this reporter set up outside the beer tent to
- 2:44Speaker 4: get reaction?
- 2:45Speaker 1: Yes.
- 2:46Speaker 4: Because those were two of the drunkest people I've ever
- 2:48Speaker 4: heard after a game.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Yes.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Taylor, can you look up? That's Philly for you.
- 2:53Speaker 5: Yeah, that's, Mikey, they didn't find the two drunkest fans.
- 2:56Speaker 5: They just found two Eagles fans.
- 2:57Speaker 3: They found the two most sober fans.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Just pick any two if you want two drunk Eagle fans.
- 3:02Speaker 1: How many losses does Nick Sirianni have in his career?
- 3:07Speaker 5: You do this you prop up Nick Sirianni and I'm
- 3:09Speaker 5: starting to wonder like.
- 3:11Speaker 1: I do prop him up he's been to two Super
- 3:12Speaker 1: Bowls should have beaten the Chiefs twice in those Super
- 3:15Speaker 1: Bowls he did beat him once I mean but.
- 3:17Speaker 5: How long are we going to give Nick Sirianni credit
- 3:19Speaker 5: for winning that Super Bowl because right now this Eagles
- 3:22Speaker 5: team looks lost where they were 0 for 12 on
- 3:25Speaker 5: third downs yes most teams should be able to stumble
- 3:28Speaker 5: into one third down conversion in Nick Sirianni 61-27 as
- 3:32Speaker 5: a head coach. Six and four in the postseason.
- 3:35Speaker 2: They've lost 27 times.
- 3:37Speaker 1: How many of those 27 times has it been on Sirianni?
- 3:41Speaker 2: All 27? Yes.
- 3:43Speaker 5: And some of the wins, too, are bad wins.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Speaking of bad wins, LeFleur.
- 3:51Speaker 1: I mean, that Bucs team just has nothing. He should
- 3:53Speaker 1: be fired after that win. I don't defend Sirianni. I
- 4:00Speaker 1: defend a guy whose team always wins that division, whose
- 4:02Speaker 1: team is always in the playoffs, and whose team has
- 4:05Speaker 1: been to the Super Bowl twice in the last decade.
- 4:07Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Anyone, any fan base would take the run that Nick
- 4:12Speaker 1: Sirianni has taken.
- 4:13Speaker 2: The Philadelphia Eagles on over the last 10 years.
- 4:17Speaker 4: I don't disagree with you on that we would take
- 4:20Speaker 4: the run Sirianni has, especially later I'm going to get
- 4:23Speaker 4: into a certain other head coach in the NFL, who
- 4:27Speaker 4: doesn't need to be here. But to say he won
- 4:30Speaker 4: that division, that's like saying Tom Brady won the division
- 4:34Speaker 4: in the AFC East.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Like who's challenging him.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Who's been good the last, however many years in that
- 4:41Speaker 4: NFC East where you're like, well, I mean, he's beaten
- 4:43Speaker 4: that team. Like the commanders were awful. The giants have
- 4:47Speaker 4: been awful. And the Cowboys are always promised to be great.
- 4:51Speaker 4: And then they get Dak gets hurt and they fall
- 4:53Speaker 4: to somewhere around 500.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Like, Let's pump the brakes on, well, he won the division.
- 4:59Speaker 2: Okay.
- 5:00Speaker 3: It's a bad division.
- 5:00Speaker 2: All right. Stop yelling at me, man.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Pump the brakes. I'm fired up today, man. No, I'm
- 5:07Speaker 3: fired up.
- 5:07Speaker 2: I know. Well, the Jets stink. Let's be honest.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Who hasn't wanted to give the middle finger to Sean McVay?
- 5:13Speaker 1: Especially when he's skipping down the sidelines like that.
- 5:16Speaker 2: I mean, I don't blame Eagle fans for doing that.
- 5:18Speaker 2: It's a tough loss.
- 5:20Speaker 1: And Sirianni, if he kicks the field goal in that spot,
- 5:22Speaker 1: they go up, what, 13?
- 5:23Speaker 2: They're still losing that game, correct? Yes.
- 5:27Speaker 3: You can pick up a third down.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Well, I mean, they hadn't picked up a third down
- 5:31Speaker 1: the entire game, and yet he thought that was the
- 5:34Speaker 1: time to go for it on fourth down.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Well. Sirianni.
- 5:39Speaker 4: Is Sirianni lost without the tush push?
- 5:43Speaker 5: He might be a tush push merchant, Mikey.
- 5:46Speaker 2: Same with Hurts. Hurts, too.
- 5:49Speaker 5: Hurts, like, you can't convince me that Jalen Hurts is–
- 5:53Speaker 5: a top five, top ten quarterback right now because most
- 5:57Speaker 5: top ten quarterbacks, again, when you're 0 for 12 on
- 6:00Speaker 5: third down, when you have ten net passing yards in
- 6:03Speaker 5: the second half, when your team needs you to produce
- 6:07Speaker 5: some offense, something is drastically off in Philadelphia. And this
- 6:12Speaker 5: is the same thing we talked about last week where
- 6:14Speaker 5: Nick Sirianni is the CEO head coach of And nobody
- 6:17Speaker 5: can really point to what Nick Sirianni does well because
- 6:20Speaker 5: his job should be hiring the best offense of mine.
- 6:24Speaker 5: And now, again, after Kevin Petullo, we blamed Kevin Petullo
- 6:28Speaker 5: all last year. Everything was Kevin Petullo's fault in Philadelphia.
- 6:32Speaker 5: Then they bring in Sean Mannion. And now guess what?
- 6:34Speaker 5: Everything's Sean Mannion's fault. At some point, all I'm saying, Stu.
- 6:37Speaker 6: Yep.
- 6:38Speaker 5: Instead of blaming Petullo, instead of blaming Sean Mannion, let's
- 6:41Speaker 5: blame whoever's bringing them in, and right now it's Nick Sirianni.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Okay. They're 2-2. We'll see how it plays out. I'm
- 6:48Speaker 2: not saying you're wrong, Taylor. They're 2-2.
- 6:51Speaker 1: They lost to the Rams.
- 6:53Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, Mikey.
- 6:55Speaker 4: It must be really hard to hire an offensive coordinator
- 6:59Speaker 4: when in the job interview, they're like, no, our quarterback
- 7:02Speaker 4: doesn't want to run that.
- 7:03Speaker 3: Nope, our quarterback doesn't do that. Nope, he said nope,
- 7:06Speaker 3: he won't run that play.
- 7:07Speaker 4: You can run these eight plays because he does those
- 7:09Speaker 4: really well and just make something with that.
- 7:13Speaker 1: The quarterback wins, and he wins a lot, and he
- 7:15Speaker 1: wins two-thirds of his game. And I know you guys
- 7:17Speaker 1: don't want to hear it today. I'm just telling you
- 7:19Speaker 1: that Jalen Hurts, I think, wins two-thirds of his game
- 7:22Speaker 1: and is a Super Bowl champion and a Super Bowl MVP.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Speaking of MVPs, Kenneth Walker?
- 7:28Speaker 5: He's good. I can't believe they let the Chiefs get
- 7:32Speaker 5: Kenneth Walker.
- 7:33Speaker 2: The Seahawks, yes, who are still 3-1 without him, though.
- 7:38Speaker 3: I thought, did you think Kenneth Walker, I didn't think
- 7:40Speaker 3: he was this good. I thought he was good.
- 7:42Speaker 1: There was a story yesterday that the broadcasters were saying
- 7:44Speaker 1: that Patrick Mahomes, while injured, was sitting on a bed,
- 7:49Speaker 1: and he was scouting running backs, and he said to
- 7:52Speaker 1: one of his coaches, Kenneth Walker. We need him, but
- 7:54Speaker 1: he'll never be available. But if he is available, go
- 7:57Speaker 1: get him. So now they're signing Patrick Mahomes. All the
- 8:01Speaker 1: credit for the Chiefs going out and getting Kenneth Walker.
- 8:04Speaker 1: I'm so confused with the player, Mikey, because the Seahawks
- 8:07Speaker 1: are still good without him.
- 8:08Speaker 2: You know?
- 8:09Speaker 1: I understand he's the MVP and should be the MVP
- 8:11Speaker 1: and should be in that conversation, but the Seahawks are
- 8:14Speaker 1: still good.
- 8:15Speaker 4: But isn't that a perfect transaction? The Seahawks don't need him.
- 8:20Speaker 3: The Chiefs do.
- 8:21Speaker 4: They pay him. The Seahawks don't. Both teams are still
- 8:24Speaker 4: really good.
- 8:24Speaker 3: That's a perfect transaction.
- 8:25Speaker 2: At a conference as well, yes.
- 8:27Speaker 5: That Raiders-Chiefs game was probably the game of the week yesterday.
- 8:31Speaker 2: It was great.
- 8:32Speaker 5: Where it felt like we were finally getting the answer to,
- 8:34Speaker 5: are the Raiders for real? It felt like the Raiders
- 8:36Speaker 5: were going to pull off the win. And then the
- 8:41Speaker 5: Raiders send out that all-out blitz on Patrick Mahomes. He
- 8:44Speaker 5: connects to Ty Thornton where Ty Thornton dislocates his ankle.
- 8:48Speaker 5: The Chiefs take the lead.
- 8:49Speaker 3: Still celebrated.
- 8:50Speaker 2: He thought he could.
- 8:51Speaker 5: The Chiefs take the lead on the ensuing kickoff. The
- 8:56Speaker 5: Raiders fumble. And it went from like, there was like
- 8:58Speaker 5: a two-minute stretch where you went from saying, man, the
- 9:01Speaker 5: Raiders are really about to pull this off to, oh,
- 9:03Speaker 5: the Raiders just don't have it. Kirk Cousins, where was
- 9:06Speaker 5: this Kirk Cousins in Atlanta? Because this Kirk Cousins is fantastic.
- 9:10Speaker 1: He pops up occasionally. He does for a four or
- 9:12Speaker 1: five-game stretch. Kirk Cousins could do that to you. What
- 9:15Speaker 1: did you have there, Mikey?
- 9:17Speaker 4: I'm just– I went back to Taequann Thornton dislocating his ankle,
- 9:21Speaker 4: getting up and celebrating. Saquon Barkley pulling a hamstring, walking over,
- 9:26Speaker 4: taking a knee, and then walking off.
- 9:28Speaker 3: And then back to Caleb Williams.
- 9:30Speaker 2: It just makes me laugh.
- 9:31Speaker 3: It just makes me laugh. And I'm sorry, Bears fans.
- 9:34Speaker 3: I keep bringing it up.
- 9:35Speaker 4: But, I mean, you had a guy literally stand up
- 9:38Speaker 4: and give the big play thing with an ankle bent
- 9:40Speaker 4: the wrong way.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:42Speaker 4: And Caleb Williams was on the ground crying from a great–
- 9:45Speaker 4: I guess they're calling it a grade two now.
- 9:47Speaker 2: Yes, Thornton wanted to stay in the game.
- 9:49Speaker 1: What did you guys make of Ben Johnson starting Case Keenum,
- 9:56Speaker 1: even though he didn't want to start Case Keenum?
- 9:58Speaker 2: One play, it was like a ceremony. first pitch.
- 10:02Speaker 5: Ben Johnson started Case Keenum because all the reports came
- 10:05Speaker 5: out that Tyson Bajent was starting. And Ben Johnson was like,
- 10:11Speaker 5: people want to come up with rumors in my building.
- 10:14Speaker 5: We want to have leaks that Tyson Bajan starting. I'm
- 10:16Speaker 5: going to show everybody.
- 10:18Speaker 2: I control the narrative.
- 10:19Speaker 3: Yes.
- 10:20Speaker 5: Ben Johnson is like the perfect mix of like football
- 10:23Speaker 5: mind and absolute psycho right now.
- 10:26Speaker 2: And he gets Caleb Williams back soon.
- 10:28Speaker 5: That seems quarterback proof at this point.
- 10:30Speaker 1: Put it on the poll of the Bears quarterback proof.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Are you saying any quarterback would be good in that system?
- 10:35Speaker 5: Not any quarterback would be good in the system in
- 10:37Speaker 5: terms of being able to win a Superbowl. But Ben Johnson,
- 10:40Speaker 5: whether it's Tyson Bajan, whether it's Case Keenum. whether it's
- 10:43Speaker 5: somebody like an MVP caliber player like Caleb Williams, Ben
- 10:47Speaker 5: Johnson's going to find ways to win for that team.
- 10:50Speaker 4: Mikey, is it– That offense hasn't looked any different. No
- 10:52Speaker 4: matter who's been a quarterback, that offense has not looked
- 10:55Speaker 4: any different.
- 10:55Speaker 2: Looks slightly better when Caleb's playing quarterback.
- 10:57Speaker 3: I'm just– Listen, the grand plays happen more when Caleb's
- 11:02Speaker 3: in there.
- 11:02Speaker 2: The great plays, yes.
- 11:04Speaker 4: Like the scrambles to the big throw, but the offense
- 11:08Speaker 4: looks no different.
- 11:09Speaker 3: It is still the same offense.
- 11:11Speaker 1: It is. Caleb Williams is a better quarterback than the
- 11:15Speaker 1: two guys that he's trotting out there every week.
- 11:17Speaker 2: It seems like you're disputing that.
- 11:19Speaker 5: No, Caleb Williams raises their ceiling.
- 11:20Speaker 3: Caleb Williams is one and one.
- 11:22Speaker 2: Right.
- 11:22Speaker 1: I'm just saying Bajent's not winning them a Super Bowl.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Keenum's not. They're not doing anything with those two guys.
- 11:27Speaker 5: Caleb Williams raises their ceiling. With Tyson Bajent and Case Keenum,
- 11:32Speaker 5: the Bears still have an unbelievably high floor.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Mikey, is it unfair for me to say today, even
- 11:38Speaker 1: after losing that game, that the Raiders are indeed for real?
- 11:41Speaker 2: Can I say it? Absolutely.
- 11:45Speaker 4: It's mind-blowing to me because you thought the quarterback play
- 11:48Speaker 4: would be better, whether it had been Mendoza or it
- 11:53Speaker 4: would have been Kirk Cousins. But the offensive line looks
- 11:57Speaker 4: better than it has. The defense looks better than it has.
- 12:01Speaker 4: The quote-unquote weapons that they have look better than.
- 12:05Speaker 3: But I guess that's what good coaching does.
- 12:10Speaker 2: Yes, yes.
- 12:11Speaker 3: I wouldn't know.
- 12:11Speaker 2: Right.
- 12:14Speaker 1: We'll get to your coach in a second, and we'll
- 12:17Speaker 1: get to our team here in just a second. Taylor
- 12:19Speaker 1: has winners and losers from the weekend. We made fun
- 12:23Speaker 1: of Drake May for an entire week. I said he
- 12:25Speaker 1: forgot how to play the position. Well, I did because
- 12:28Speaker 1: it was that bad last week. He was that good
- 12:31Speaker 1: this past weekend. I mean, they beat Buffalo in Buffalo.
- 12:35Speaker 1: That was a big win. One might say a must-win
- 12:37Speaker 1: for the Patriots. Drake May, looks like he, whatever problem
- 12:42Speaker 1: Chris Sims was talking to us about with his mechanics,
- 12:45Speaker 1: it seems like he fixed it yesterday.
- 12:47Speaker 5: Drake may be back.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Maybe, and maybe not.
- 12:52Speaker 3: It also helps when Romeo Dobbs learns how to catch. Yes.
- 12:55Speaker 4: Because in that first game, he didn't, and he certainly
- 12:58Speaker 4: caught the ball well in this game.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Yeah. You have to give them credit, though, right?
- 13:02Speaker 1: Going to Buffalo, high mark, Josh Allen, quarterback lacking confidence,
- 13:08Speaker 1: a team lacking confidence, and they get a win.
- 13:10Speaker 2: I mean, it's a good win for Rabel.
- 13:11Speaker 5: This game, I think, shows that a lot of Drake Mays'
- 13:15Speaker 5: issues are just a confidence thing. Because when you're looking
- 13:18Speaker 5: at his game against Jacksonville and you're looking at this
- 13:20Speaker 5: game this past week against Buffalo. Which one do you
- 13:24Speaker 5: think is closer to what the Patriots are actually? Because
- 13:27Speaker 5: they're probably somewhat in the middle, but it feels like
- 13:29Speaker 5: this Patriot team, with that Vrabel-led defense, is probably the
- 13:33Speaker 5: top five defense in the NFL. I think they're a
- 13:35Speaker 5: lot closer to what they put on tape against Buffalo
- 13:37Speaker 5: than what they are against Jacksonville.
- 13:39Speaker 2: What do you think, Mike?
- 13:42Speaker 4: I think Taylor's right. I think they're probably somewhere in
- 13:44Speaker 4: the middle. I still believe that the Patriots overachieved last year.
- 13:49Speaker 4: and that we are going into this year with the
- 13:52Speaker 4: expectations of Super Bowl, and I just don't think they're there.
- 13:57Speaker 3: I think Drake May is going to be an okay quarterback.
- 14:00Speaker 4: I think he's going to have– I mean, it's almost
- 14:05Speaker 4: disrespectful to say.
- 14:06Speaker 3: But it shouldn't be– Could he be Kirk Cousins?
- 14:09Speaker 5: Like a guy that's good but not great? His ceiling's
- 14:13Speaker 5: a lot higher.
- 14:14Speaker 4: His ceiling could be a lot higher, but I think
- 14:16Speaker 4: that's about where he's going to be.
- 14:18Speaker 5: You offended him.
- 14:18Speaker 3: I think that's about where he's going to be. You
- 14:21Speaker 3: really offended him there.
- 14:23Speaker 4: I think you think of it as the bad Kirk
- 14:26Speaker 4: Cousins as opposed to... Like, Kirk Cousins was really good
- 14:30Speaker 4: in Washington. Kirk Cousins was good in Minnesota. And Kirk
- 14:34Speaker 4: Cousins looks really good again in Vegas. Like... He has
- 14:40Speaker 4: down moments. He's not a world beater. But at the
- 14:43Speaker 4: same time, Kirk Cousins is a good quarterback. He's an
- 14:46Speaker 4: NFL starting quarterback. And maybe that's just what Drake May is.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins is a guy who has thrown for over
- 14:53Speaker 1: 4,000 yards multiple times in the NFL. He's had 30
- 14:56Speaker 1: touchdown seasons. He's had 10 interception seasons, all in the
- 14:59Speaker 1: same season.
- 15:00Speaker 2: He is... Like, if Drake May.
- 15:02Speaker 1: reaches Kirk Cousins' apex, Taylor, that's not a bad comp.
- 15:07Speaker 2: It's not a terrible comparison.
- 15:08Speaker 1: There were times where people thought you could win a
- 15:11Speaker 1: Super Bowl with Kirk Cousins as your quarterback.
- 15:13Speaker 5: It's not a terrible comparison, but I think if Drake
- 15:15Speaker 5: May's ceiling winds up being Kirk Cousins, I think Drake May's,
- 15:19Speaker 5: I would call his career a disappointment because I think
- 15:22Speaker 5: Drake May, at his best, has potential to be a
- 15:25Speaker 5: top five, top ten quarterback. And I don't think we've
- 15:28Speaker 5: ever really said those things about Kirk Cousins, thinking that
- 15:30Speaker 5: Kirk Cousins could be elite. And you're looking at Drake
- 15:34Speaker 5: May against Buffalo specifically. Like, the narrative last year was
- 15:37Speaker 5: Drake May took advantage of a light schedule. Yes. Well,
- 15:40Speaker 5: he's now beaten Buffalo twice in the past two years,
- 15:43Speaker 5: where Buffalo at home since 2024 is 19-3. And two
- 15:47Speaker 5: of those losses are to Drake May.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Yeah. Is Kirk Cousins going to the Hall of Fame?
- 15:52Speaker 1: No.
- 15:52Speaker 2: What do you mean, no?
- 15:53Speaker 4: No.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Mikey, look at the stats before you say no. Just
- 15:55Speaker 1: look at the career stats and the comp before you
- 15:58Speaker 1: say no.
- 15:59Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. It's the stink that's on.
- 16:02Speaker 4: It's the same reason Taylor gave the, no, Drake Mays
- 16:06Speaker 4: is not going to beat Kirk.
- 16:07Speaker 3: It's the stink around him. If you look into it,
- 16:10Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins is not a bad quarterback.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Let me toss some numbers at you. 45,726 career yards. 45,726.
- 16:17Speaker 1: 309 touchdown passes, 135 interceptions.
- 16:27Speaker 2: There are quarterbacks in the Hall of Fame with worse numbers.
- 16:29Speaker 5: So Kirk Cousins could go to the Hall of Fame
- 16:31Speaker 5: if he just plans a family vacation around.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Going to Canton. it's expensive.
- 16:40Speaker 5: Buy a ticket with everybody else buddy yes.
- 16:42Speaker 1: Uh austin eckler who was it was nice to see
- 16:44Speaker 1: him back uh it's a moment it was 9 30
- 16:46Speaker 1: in the morning.
- 16:49Speaker 2: I prefer that game be earlier if possible.
- 16:52Speaker 5: That game started at 9 30 but it was over
- 16:54Speaker 5: by about 9 45 where daniel jones fumbles the first
- 16:57Speaker 5: possession you're like man the commanders here come the commanders
- 17:00Speaker 5: and then marcus mariotta gets hurt and The kid from Rutgers.
- 17:05Speaker 5: I felt bad because, like, he's a seventh-round pick this
- 17:08Speaker 5: past year. He's finally getting his moment, and that Colts
- 17:11Speaker 5: defense was just teeing up on him. It's like DeForest
- 17:14Speaker 5: Buckner coming down the A-gap, tormenting that rookie guard that
- 17:18Speaker 5: you have. Like, good luck, buddy.
- 17:20Speaker 1: If I'm being honest, the reason I blurted out Austin
- 17:23Speaker 1: Eckler there was I was going to tell the story
- 17:25Speaker 1: about the first time he saw Phillip Rivers and his
- 17:27Speaker 1: family playing. on the field of a football game. There were, like,
- 17:30Speaker 1: nine kids there. He thought he was doing a charity
- 17:32Speaker 1: thing before the game. He had no idea all the
- 17:35Speaker 1: kids were his kids. And when you said Kirk Cousins' family,
- 17:39Speaker 1: I just, I don't know, somehow they're the same person,
- 17:41Speaker 1: Phillip Rivers and Kirk Cousins.
- 17:43Speaker 2: That's why I blurted out. Austin Eckler.
- 17:46Speaker 3: Glad you took us on that journey.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Thanks.
- 17:50Speaker 1: I felt the need to correct myself because it was
- 17:52Speaker 1: an odd thing to blurt out.
- 17:53Speaker 2: It was.
- 17:55Speaker 4: I want to throw something out, and if I'm an
- 17:57Speaker 4: NFL GM, this is how I think about it. If
- 18:01Speaker 4: you're building your roster, your third quarterback needs to be
- 18:05Speaker 4: someone that can run. Like, if you're building a roster,
- 18:09Speaker 4: you can't have a pocket passer be your third guy
- 18:12Speaker 4: because he's just not going to be ready. Just get
- 18:15Speaker 4: a guy that go, hey, at least you could run.
- 18:18Speaker 3: Be that guy.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Stugatz here. You guys know me. I'm watching sports all
- 18:22Speaker 1: weekend anyway. And there's nothing better than having a little

- 19:34Speaker 2: Go ahead, Taylor.
- 19:35Speaker 5: Can I tell you guys a problem that I had
- 19:37Speaker 5: in the Colts-Commanders game?
- 19:38Speaker 2: That it was on?
- 19:39Speaker 4: No.
- 19:40Speaker 5: This is a problem that I feel very alone when
- 19:44Speaker 5: I'm watching the game because I don't really hear other
- 19:46Speaker 5: people talking about it.
- 19:48Speaker 3: Why would you?
- 19:49Speaker 5: The Colts owner. Carly Ursae Gordon, the fact that she's
- 19:54Speaker 5: on the sideline with a headset on, writing down notes
- 19:57Speaker 5: on how the coaches are doing and giving input, and
- 20:01Speaker 5: she's right behind Shane Steichen where it looks like she's
- 20:05Speaker 5: involved in the play callings, The entire situation of her
- 20:08Speaker 5: being down on the field is bizarre. Like, I just
- 20:10Speaker 5: want my owner up in a suite.
- 20:11Speaker 2: She's trying to learn the game. I mean, I don't
- 20:13Speaker 2: blame her. They don't care. Why do you care so much?
- 20:16Speaker 5: Stu, if Woody Johnson was doing this for the Jets,
- 20:20Speaker 5: if Jerry Jones was doing this on the Cowboys, They
- 20:23Speaker 5: would be the laughingstock of the league.
- 20:27Speaker 2: You're right.
- 20:27Speaker 1: I'm just saying she's a new owner. She's new to
- 20:30Speaker 1: the game. She's trying to learn about her coaching staff.
- 20:32Speaker 1: She's trying to see what happens on the sidelines during
- 20:34Speaker 1: an NFL game.
- 20:36Speaker 2: I don't blame her.
- 20:36Speaker 6: I like it.
- 20:37Speaker 3: It's bad optics. It's bad optics.
- 20:39Speaker 5: That's all it comes down to.
- 20:40Speaker 3: It's bad optics.
- 20:41Speaker 4: I get it.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Like she's poking around.
- 20:43Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah. You shouldn't be giving.
- 20:45Speaker 5: She feels like she's meddling.
- 20:46Speaker 3: You shouldn't be giving any.
- 20:48Speaker 2: She's one of those meddling kids.
- 20:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Like Scooby-Doo.
- 20:51Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 20:52Speaker 3: Those meddling kids.
- 20:53Speaker 2: By the way, I.
- 20:57Speaker 4: Had to run out during that game for a while,
- 20:59Speaker 4: and I put the game on radio, and Westwood One
- 21:02Speaker 4: had an English guy calling the play-by-play.
- 21:05Speaker 2: He was great.
- 21:05Speaker 3: And I have to tell you, it was delightful. And
- 21:08Speaker 3: he's got a bit of a hold there. You can
- 21:10Speaker 3: see that's going to cost him.
- 21:13Speaker 1: The most shocking thing is, now that you left during
- 21:16Speaker 1: that game, is that you got.
- 21:17Speaker 2: Into your car and turned it on the radio.
- 21:21Speaker 1: And I have no doubt their broadcaster was better than
- 21:24Speaker 1: ours at selling what was a dreadful game.
- 21:27Speaker 2: He's excited. It's his only game of the year. Those
- 21:30Speaker 2: other guys didn't want to be there. No one wanted
- 21:32Speaker 2: to be there. It's awesome. Why? What was awesome about it?
- 21:38Speaker 3: Just listen to the English guy call the game. It
- 21:40Speaker 3: was just fun.
- 21:41Speaker 2: It was fun to hear their colloquialisms. Tough word of
- 21:46Speaker 2: a Monday.
- 21:46Speaker 3: In our sport.
- 21:47Speaker 2: Yes.
- 21:48Speaker 1: But you realize why I'm shocked. I figured you got
- 21:50Speaker 1: in your car to do errands to get away from
- 21:52Speaker 1: the game.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Like your kids.
- 21:55Speaker 3: Well, listen, I mean, I do produce God bless football.
- 21:58Speaker 3: I have to know.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Well, not that one. You don't. I give you permission.
- 22:03Speaker 3: We just spent five minutes on it.
- 22:04Speaker 2: To know nothing. Yes, mocking it for what a terrible,
- 22:07Speaker 2: lousy game it was. Let's get to Taylor's winners and
- 22:09Speaker 2: losers from the weekend here.
- 22:19Speaker 5: My biggest winner. Start with a winner on a Monday.
- 22:22Speaker 2: All right.
- 22:26Speaker 5: Carolina Panther fans. I think the Carolina Panther fans are
- 22:29Speaker 5: the biggest winner because.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Exciting.
- 22:32Speaker 5: They went to sleep last night knowing... We have a quarterback,
- 22:35Speaker 5: Bryce Young. Bryce Young is like sneaky electric as a quarterback.
- 22:40Speaker 2: He's great. Fun to watch. They're a fun team to watch.
- 22:43Speaker 5: And Tedaroa McMillan, where Tedaroa McMillan goes for 14 catches,
- 22:47Speaker 5: 192 yards, and two touchdowns. That line's secondary.
- 22:50Speaker 2: Terrible.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Goff, 412 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions. Carolina needed the game.
- 22:58Speaker 1: Detroit didn't need it nearly as bad. Carolina gets the win.
- 23:02Speaker 1: I do like Bryce Young. Like from where Bryce Young
- 23:05Speaker 1: has come from, where everyone criticized him to where he
- 23:07Speaker 1: is now, where you're saying he's kind of elite, that's
- 23:09Speaker 1: a pretty cool story.
- 23:10Speaker 2: I like Bryce Young.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Do you ever need a game in the NFC South?
- 23:16Speaker 2: That's a good question. Put it on the poll.
- 23:18Speaker 5: And I was almost thinking the opposite, where Detroit felt
- 23:21Speaker 5: like they needed it more.
- 23:22Speaker 3: Detroit needed the game.
- 23:24Speaker 5: Detroit has to keep pace with the Chicago Bears and
- 23:27Speaker 5: the Minnesota Vikings, who cannot lose.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Right.
- 23:30Speaker 2: They're 4-0. They're plus 35.
- 23:36Speaker 5: My loser.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Yes.
- 23:38Speaker 5: The Dolphins threw four games.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Well, winners to me.
- 23:42Speaker 5: No.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Thank you. This is how you do it.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Oof.
- 23:45Speaker 5: This stat comes from Barry Jackson. Here are the three
- 23:48Speaker 5: most recent NFL teams that failed to score more than
- 23:50Speaker 5: 13 points in any of their first four games.
- 23:53Speaker 3: Ready?
- 23:54Speaker 5: The 2026 Dolphins, the 2019 Dolphins, and the 2004 Dolphins.
- 23:56Speaker 5: They're consistent.
- 23:57Speaker 2: Own it.
- 23:58Speaker 5: Own it. My next winner.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Yes. They've had a tough schedule, the Dolphins. I mean,
- 24:13Speaker 2: the Raiders, the Niners, the Chiefs, the Vikings. Tough schedule, man.
- 24:17Speaker 5: If Kyler Murray's coming to town, like, is that really
- 24:20Speaker 5: the toughest game in the world? That defense is good.
- 24:22Speaker 1: They have the Bengals next week who need the win.
- 24:25Speaker 1: They get some relief against the Jets. Then they have
- 24:27Speaker 1: the Patriots.
- 24:28Speaker 2: They have the Lions. I mean, they are marching for arch.
- 24:32Speaker 5: To the Dolphins' credit, they're almost in every game, though. Like,
- 24:34Speaker 5: they're not playing as bad as their record would indicate.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Yes, they're tanking correctly. Yes.
- 24:40Speaker 5: My next winner, Efton Chisholm.
- 24:44Speaker 2: Ah, Efton Chisholm. No.
- 24:45Speaker 5: That was the world being introduced to Efton Chisholm because
- 24:48Speaker 5: I don't think even Patriot fans, like Efton Chisholm is
- 24:51Speaker 5: like a preseason hero for the Patriots where they're like, oh,
- 24:55Speaker 5: here comes the Efton Chisholm, you know, four catches, 80-yard
- 24:59Speaker 5: preseason week three game.
- 25:00Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 25:00Speaker 5: That was Efton Chisholm kind of saying, I might be here.
- 25:03Speaker 2: Yeah. That's because your boy Mac got hurt, right?
- 25:06Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:06Speaker 2: That's why he arrived.
- 25:07Speaker 5: And Efton Chisholm just kind of steps into the Mack
- 25:10Speaker 5: Hollins role.
- 25:11Speaker 2: You think Mack enjoyed that?
- 25:12Speaker 5: Yeah, they're really close. It's weird how Efton Chisholm could
- 25:17Speaker 5: step into the Mack Hollins role because physically they almost
- 25:21Speaker 5: couldn't look further apart as wide receivers. One's like 6'4,
- 25:25Speaker 5: probably 6'5, Mack, and then Efton Chisholm. If Efton Chisholm's 6'0,
- 25:30Speaker 5: I would be shocked.
- 25:31Speaker 1: You said Patriot fans had no idea Efton Chisholm existed
- 25:34Speaker 1: until yesterday.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Neither did Bill's players.
- 25:37Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 25:38Speaker 2: There was a guy after the games.
- 25:39Speaker 5: C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
- 25:39Speaker 2: I hate C.J. Gardner-Johnson. Said he was a practice squad player.
- 25:42Speaker 1: C.J.
- 25:42Speaker 5: Gardner-Johnson's always running his mouth.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's never been on a practice squad, Efton Chisholm.
- 25:47Speaker 5: Yeah, but did you see what Vrabel said to him?
- 25:48Speaker 2: Yes.
- 25:49Speaker 5: Vrabel was like, you've been on like five teams the
- 25:52Speaker 5: past like six years, buddy. I think you know something
- 25:54Speaker 5: about that.
- 25:54Speaker 2: I think it's eight teams. Yeah.
- 25:57Speaker 5: C.J. Gardner-Johnson is always bouncing around the league and never
- 26:00Speaker 5: playing good.
- 26:01Speaker 2: All right, keep going here.
- 26:03Speaker 5: My next loser, the Texans defense. The Texans are now
- 26:08Speaker 5: allowing 27.3 points per game, which is currently fifth worst
- 26:13Speaker 5: in the league. All their losses feel like one-score losses
- 26:16Speaker 5: that come down to– C.J. Stroud, by the way, is
- 26:20Speaker 5: playing some of his best football.
- 26:21Speaker 2: He's been good.
- 26:23Speaker 5: And– Every game for the Texans, it feels like it
- 26:25Speaker 5: comes down to CJ Stroud makes the play, and the Texans'
- 26:27Speaker 5: defense just needs to make one stop, and we're so
- 26:30Speaker 5: used to the Texans' defense with D'Amico Ryan stepping up,
- 26:33Speaker 5: and their defense has just left so much to be
- 26:36Speaker 5: desired in comparison to last year.
- 26:39Speaker 1: I don't know if defense carries over year to year. Mikey,
- 26:41Speaker 1: you and I have had this discussion, right? Just because
- 26:43Speaker 1: you were a great defense a year ago doesn't mean
- 26:45Speaker 1: you're going. Even if you have the same personnel, football
- 26:48Speaker 1: is so random and weird, it doesn't mean your defense
- 26:50Speaker 1: is going to be great again the following year.
- 26:52Speaker 2: It just doesn't mean that, you know?
- 26:55Speaker 4: Yeah, it's tough to watch a defense filled with so
- 26:58Speaker 4: many really good players just look bad.
- 27:01Speaker 3: Like Swiss cheese, and that's what they are.
- 27:03Speaker 2: Yes. Are you saying C.J.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Stroud is playing the best football of his career or
- 27:08Speaker 1: some of the best football?
- 27:10Speaker 5: Some of the best football in his career, and a
- 27:12Speaker 5: large part of that is due to the fact that
- 27:14Speaker 5: his defense keeps letting him down.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Yeah. He has been good. I'm looking at the numbers
- 27:18Speaker 2: right now. He's been really good, actually.
- 27:20Speaker 5: Yeah. All he needs is, like, that defense from last year,
- 27:24Speaker 5: and this Texans team is probably 4-0 instead of 0-4.
- 27:28Speaker 2: He hasn't thrown an interception yet. It's been good.
- 27:31Speaker 5: My next winner. Stu, you mentioned it.
- 27:35Speaker 3: The Raiders.
- 27:37Speaker 5: I think this Raiders team is good.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Wow, the rare winner and a loss. How about that?
- 27:41Speaker 5: That felt like a statement loss, though.
- 27:44Speaker 2: Put it on the ball.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Did the Raiders loss feel like a statement loss?
- 27:48Speaker 5: Because, Mikey, you're looking at the AFC playoff picture, and
- 27:51Speaker 5: you need seven teams to make it to the playoffs.
- 27:54Speaker 5: It feels like you could pencil in the Chiefs at 4-0.
- 27:57Speaker 5: The Jaguars look really good in the AFC South. Somebody
- 28:00Speaker 5: has to win the AFC North. Lamar Jackson leaves that
- 28:03Speaker 5: game hurt. The Browns are a surprise 3-1. The Bills
- 28:06Speaker 5: from the AFC East, even though that was their kind
- 28:08Speaker 5: of moment to take hold of the AFC East yesterday
- 28:12Speaker 5: before they lose to the Patriots. The Raiders are just
- 28:15Speaker 5: as much in the conversation as some of these other teams.
- 28:17Speaker 5: If you told me who do you trust more, Patriots, Raiders,
- 28:21Speaker 5: it's kind of a toss-up at this point. And I
- 28:23Speaker 5: think they play this week.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Wow, big game.
- 28:26Speaker 5: Big game.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Who do you trust more game?
- 28:28Speaker 5: I think it's the Raiders right now.
- 28:30Speaker 2: Well, right now it is. Talk to me on Monday.
- 28:32Speaker 5: Max Crosby going after Drake May.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:35Speaker 1: You see that run from Kenneth Walker? It was the
- 28:37Speaker 1: only play Max Crosby wasn't in. They ran it right
- 28:40Speaker 1: at him.
- 28:40Speaker 2: All right. Who's next?
- 28:45Speaker 5: My next loser. So this is the Jets. The Jets.
- 28:52Speaker 2: Just let Mikey go.
- 28:53Speaker 5: So hold on. This is why the Jets are my loser.
- 28:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:58Speaker 5: On social media, the Jets put out a screenshot of
- 29:02Speaker 5: a box score that just said four straight plays, 26
- 29:06Speaker 5: yards with the flexing emoji for Braylon Allen.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 29:10Speaker 3: Put it in the rafters.
- 29:11Speaker 5: That game was so bad that the one thing you
- 29:15Speaker 5: have to brag about was four plays that went for
- 29:19Speaker 5: 26 yards.
- 29:20Speaker 2: Small victors.
- 29:23Speaker 3: Well, it had to be a small victor.
- 29:24Speaker 4: It, it, it had to, um, The Bears had more
- 29:28Speaker 4: first downs than the Jets had plays. They got tripled
- 29:36Speaker 4: up in time of possession. the Jets possessed the ball
- 29:41Speaker 4: for 45 seconds in the fourth quarter the entire fourth
- 29:46Speaker 4: quarter 45.
- 29:47Speaker 3: Seconds the Jets had the ball and Aaron Glenn, those
- 29:52Speaker 3: who defend Aaron Glenn, I'm looking at you, Stu. I'm
- 29:55Speaker 3: looking at you when I do this, okay?
- 29:56Speaker 5: Okay.
- 29:57Speaker 3: Those who defend.
- 29:58Speaker 4: Aaron Glenn, the Jets have had 19 full-time head coaches
- 30:02Speaker 4: in franchise history.
- 30:04Speaker 3: Of the 15 who coached 21 games.
- 30:08Speaker 4: Rich Kotite is worse at 3-18. Second is Aaron Glenn.
- 30:13Speaker 3: He's 4-17.
- 30:15Speaker 4: Even Gase had seven wins. Robert Sala had six wins.
- 30:20Speaker 4: He has four wins in two years. There are one, two, three, four,
- 30:26Speaker 4: five coaches who were hired this year that have three wins.
- 30:31Speaker 3: Aaron Glenn has four.
- 30:34Speaker 4: Oh, his four wins were against teams with a combined
- 30:37Speaker 4: 19-36 record. He has not one quality win over a
- 30:44Speaker 4: good opponent. The Jets are 1-8 in their last nine.
- 30:48Speaker 4: Who has gotten better under this guy? Which player are
- 30:52Speaker 4: you looking at? Is Will McDonald better?
- 30:54Speaker 5: He stinks.
- 30:55Speaker 4: Does David Bailey look like a guy who's worth the
- 30:57Speaker 4: second overall pick? They've been outscored 272-130 in those eight games.
- 31:06Speaker 4: That's a 142-point deficit. That's over two touchdowns a game.
- 31:11Speaker 4: You're a defensive juggernaut, and you made Tyson Bajan hold
- 31:15Speaker 4: the ball for 46 minutes because you couldn't get Tyson
- 31:21Speaker 4: Bajan off the field. Sell me progress. Sell me progress,
- 31:26Speaker 4: Aaron Glenn. Sell me let's circle the wagons. Let's not
- 31:31Speaker 4: look at the history. I don't need to look at
- 31:32Speaker 4: the history. You're terrible.
- 31:36Speaker 5: Mikey, you left out one of the most important things
- 31:38Speaker 5: from one of the stats you read.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Was he done?
- 31:41Speaker 3: Please. I'm going to have an aneurysm if I don't.
- 31:45Speaker 4: Okay.
- 31:45Speaker 2: I want to make sure you're okay.
- 31:47Speaker 5: Yesterday in that game, Mikey, the Jets had a time
- 31:49Speaker 5: of possession, like you mentioned, of 45 seconds in the
- 31:51Speaker 5: fourth quarter. That was their highest scoring quarter of the game.
- 31:54Speaker 2: They outscored the Bears 6-3 in that quarter.
- 31:56Speaker 3: One point.
- 31:56Speaker 2: Yes.
- 31:57Speaker 3: They outscored the Bears.
- 31:59Speaker 1: That's the key to the Jets' success. Hold on to
- 32:03Speaker 1: the ball for as less time as possible.
- 32:07Speaker 5: So, last week, I had the sound from Don LaGreca
- 32:10Speaker 5: that we're going to play.
- 32:11Speaker 2: Oh, God.
- 32:12Speaker 5: Last week when we had John Marossi on, we were
- 32:15Speaker 5: doing the thing of Yankees, Rays, naming somebody who played
- 32:19Speaker 5: on the Yankees and Rays.
- 32:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:21Speaker 5: When you guys think of Jets, Bears, who do you
- 32:24Speaker 5: guys think of?
- 32:25Speaker 3: Thomas Jones.
- 32:26Speaker 2: That's a good one.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Brandon Marshall.
- 32:32Speaker 2: That's also a good one. Well, I think Broncos with
- 32:34Speaker 2: Brandon Marshall. I do. But I understand why you played
- 32:37Speaker 2: Bears and Jets.
- 32:38Speaker 3: Yeah, I got you.
- 32:39Speaker 5: So the player from this sound is Matt Forte. A
- 32:42Speaker 5: Bears legend, pretty good on the Jets, like solid on
- 32:46Speaker 5: the Jets. Right after that, Thomas Jones, Eric?
- 32:48Speaker 2: We did a live show in Chicago with Matt Forte.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Remember that, Mikey?
- 32:51Speaker 1: I think I called him the sixth best Chicago Bears
- 32:53Speaker 1: running back of all time.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Wow. That's a good list.
- 32:57Speaker 3: I don't think a certain company paid for me to
- 32:58Speaker 3: go to that.
- 32:59Speaker 2: I'm sorry. They had a New York pizza there, wherever
- 33:02Speaker 2: it was, though.
- 33:04Speaker 5: So in honor of Matt Forte being a Jet and
- 33:08Speaker 5: a Bayer, This sound comes courtesy of the Michael Kay
- 33:11Speaker 5: show back in, I believe it was 2018 or 2019,
- 33:15Speaker 5: when Matt Forte was long gone from the Jets. But
- 33:19Speaker 5: on the Michael Kay show with Don LaGreca, they would
- 33:22Speaker 5: get a caller on, and if you guessed who would
- 33:25Speaker 5: score the first touchdown, you would win a prize, like
- 33:28Speaker 5: classic sports radio.
- 33:29Speaker 2: Okay.
- 33:30Speaker 5: So this is a caller calling in and guessing Matt Forte,
- 33:34Speaker 5: who is not on the Jets.
- 33:35Speaker 4: Ugh.
- 33:37Speaker 6: So please tell me who is going to score the
- 33:39Speaker 6: touchdown for the Jets first.
- 33:42Speaker 2: Let's go with the numbers. Matt Forte.
- 33:45Speaker 5: Matt Forte? Matt Forte doesn't play for the Jets.
- 33:54Speaker 3: Oh, let's go with Robbie Anderson.
- 33:55Speaker 2: Is he on the DL? Well, he might not play.
- 33:59Speaker 5: Robbie Anderson, thanks.
- 34:00Speaker 2: Sorry, that's your guy.
- 34:01Speaker 5: Put him on hold.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Let's move on. No, no, no.
- 34:05Speaker 6: How many chances did you get? Matt Forte's not a jet.
- 34:08Speaker 6: Robbie Anderson didn't practice.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Tough.
- 34:10Speaker 3: How many guesses? Should he get seven?
- 34:11Speaker 5: Andrew, let's give him 12.
- 34:14Speaker 6: My God, we're giving you a chance to win money,
- 34:16Speaker 6: and you call up and you don't know who's on
- 34:18Speaker 6: the team?
- 34:19Speaker 2: You don't know the rules?
- 34:20Speaker 4: Oh, keep picking.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Keep picking.
- 34:21Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 34:22Speaker 2: Sid Luckman.
- 34:23Speaker 3: I'll go with Sid Luckman.
- 34:24Speaker 2: Give me Joe Namath.
- 34:26Speaker 5: I think Joe Namath will.
- 34:27Speaker 2: Don Maynard. Let's go with Don.
- 34:29Speaker 6: Morons.
- 34:30Speaker 2: I can't take it. Put him on hold.
- 34:32Speaker 3: Take it.
- 34:32Speaker 6: That's what he gets.
- 34:33Speaker 3: I hope Robbie Anderson doesn't play.
- 34:35Speaker 5: I hope he doesn't play. My dear God.
- 34:38Speaker 3: Matt Forte.
- 34:40Speaker 2: What was his last name?
- 34:41Speaker 3: Why not Jameis Winston? Jameis Winston.
- 34:43Speaker 5: You know what? How about this? How about Jameison Winston?
- 34:45Speaker 5: I think Jameison Winston's going to score the touchdown.
- 34:49Speaker 2: My God, it's weird with your tolerance. It really is.
- 34:52Speaker 6: But a guy does roll call, you want to stab
- 34:54Speaker 6: him in the chest. Meanwhile, a guy wants to get
- 34:56Speaker 6: a dozen moron guesses, and you keep.
- 34:59Speaker 5: Letting him pick.
- 35:01Speaker 6: When you pick a high-grounded stick with it, for God's sake.
- 35:05Speaker 2: He couldn't give him Matt Forte.
- 35:07Speaker 3: He doesn't exist. He doesn't exist.
- 35:09Speaker 5: So you give him another chance?
- 35:10Speaker 6: He should have been stuck with Matt.
- 35:12Speaker 5: It should have been Matt Forte.
- 35:14Speaker 3: Thanks for calling.
- 35:15Speaker 2: You're a loser. Sports radio, man.
- 35:20Speaker 1: If the Jets only took their games as seriously as
- 35:22Speaker 1: Don McGregor takes his games.
- 35:28Speaker 2: It's why Michael K. left them.
