  Speaker 1: starting to walk off and there and everybody's getting.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: So it wasn't like using the tunnel, like he's direct,
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: he's on the like he has his teammates next to
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: him on the field. Well, what are we doing here?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, making a mistake is what we were doing.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, not thinking And.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: He realized it afterwards. He apologized, said he agreed with
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: the officials call. Also quote That's not something I wanted
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: to show or want people to notice me as that.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: That was just the heat of the moment for me.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: And I apologize to everyone who's seen that, and that
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: won't happen again.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: You can buy a t shirts of the Double Bird
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: if you want, Craig, can you?
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Like, do we have to apologize for everything?
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I think what? I think it would be better if
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: he was like, no apology. I hate green Man fans.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: I apologize for the hit, but I don't apologize for
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Double Bird. Like, let's come on, let's be honest.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I apologize for nothing. Yeah. I have a feeling that
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: was instructed of him to do Oh for sure, yeap,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: he was instructed to do it. I'm sure ESPN's sex
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: were all over the roll over Jason Kelsey to apologize. Yeah, yeah,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: he agreed also with the call I got him kicked
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: out of the game, he said, I most definitely agree
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: with the call. My target was obviously high, but that
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: was never my intention to aim for the head. Moving forward,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I do have to move my target down, so anyway,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: there and Jameson Williams got back from his two game
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: suspension for that substance abuse policy thing, substance performance enhancing policy.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Excuse me, I apologize.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Dan Campbell said they weren't going to waste any time
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: getting him back involved with with the teams that would
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: work out really well. Lines are seven and one. It's
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the best start since nineteen fifty six. You think they
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: win in the Central.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: I think so. I think they are the best team
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: in the NFC right now. And if I were a
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: betting man, I would think it would be Chiefs Lines
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: right now. I really do. I mean, I think this
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: is a completely different Detroit team. I mean, even with
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: goff did in the elements in Lambeau. I mean, he's played,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: he is I think the MVP of the league right
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: now at this point. He's playing perfect football. He's executing
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the offense, and even the spite Agen Hutchinson being out
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: for the season, Detroit still has a very nasty defense.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: They're getting their playmakers back. I mean, the tandem of
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Jamira Gibbs and David Montgomery is so tough to stop.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: If Laporta can stay healthy, if the offensive line can
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: stay healthy, this is that I think the team to
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: beat in January on the NFC SAW so you'd say
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: they're on a roll. Six in a row. I believe
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: they have the highest point differential in the league. They
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: do it one hundred and ten. They're the only team
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: over one hundred points. The second highest whole team in
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: point differential is the Commanders at seventy four, So, you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: thirty six points more than the next team, which tells
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: you they're pretty good for any games.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: You know who else is in a row? The Rams, Well, yeah,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: we'll see.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: If that continues on Monday night when they play the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Dolphins out in LA.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: I was gonna say the Carolina Panthers in a row.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: One, they've won one game, they won one, they beat
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: the Saints. Uh and, and I'll tell you it's on
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: a row. Bryce Young, he's going to get to start again.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Good for him to start against the Giants when they
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: play in Munich Sunday morning. Are you sitting your alarm
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: for this cam Panthers Giants eight thirty am, Texas time?
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Are you getting up to watch that one?
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I do not think I will be? Okay, do not
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: think I will be. Do you think the Germans are
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: going to really enjoy Bryce Young first, Danny Diamonds?
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, could they?
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Can we give the game you give?
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: You and I both know that in these European especially
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: ones in England, but even in Germany as well when
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: they played over there that I'm gonna give you a
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: conservative estimate, sixty five maybe seventy percent of the fans
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: are Americans, whether they live over there or went over
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: for the trip or what. When you see them, there's
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of Americans who make that. Now, for this
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: particular game, maybe not so much. Yeah, but if the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Eagles are over there, or the Vikings are over there
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: or the Packers, you know there's gonna be a lot
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: of their a lot of their fans there.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: For this game.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Jonathan Brooks, sexist running back, Yeah, has been activated off
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: the IR He's on the fifty three men roster. How
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: many NFL players can say they made their NFL debut
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: in Germany.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: It's a good question. So hopefully he gets the chance
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to do that. I hope so too. Patrick Mahomes today
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: said he thinks his ankle is gonna be all right.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Eager to test it. Said, when you have a little
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: bit of a role, it's a little bit sore, but
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I'm able to move around and look forward to getting
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: out to practice and seeing how much I can push it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: As the week goes on and Andy reaches, They're not
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: going to limit him. We're gonna have him do what
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: he normally.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Does, just to see how he does it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: One other quarterback note, the Browns are kind of going.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah about the Shawn Watson.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Andrew Berry is our general manager.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: His reaction and response about the future and current standing
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: of Deshaun Watson with the Browns franchise was.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Non committal. Quote.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Really our focus with Shawn. I would say for any
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: player the season ending injury in a major and remember
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: he had the right achilles tendant here, his first and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: foremost to make sure he gets healthy from the achilles injury.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Everything else will deal with at a later moment. You know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: it should be pointed out that before the injury, watching
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: at the lowest total QBR of any qualified passer in
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the NFL.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: They were one in five and his six starts.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: So this is a guy they gave a lot of
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: money too, and gave up to get things to get him.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Forty six million dollars each of the next two seasons.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: He had cap pits of seventy two point nine million
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: dollars in twenty five in twenty six. If they were
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: the part ways with him at the end of this season,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Cleveland would take on a dead cap pit of one
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: hundred and seventy two million dollars total ninety nine in
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: twenty five and in twenty six. It will go down
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: as the worst trade in NFL history. It might be
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: up there as the worst trade in all the professional
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: sports because I don't I don't see how Watson can
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: come back. I mean he he was already obviously the
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: same player after that shoulder injury and achilles.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that could be. That could be bad. Dead cap
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: money of one hundred million.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: One hundred and seventy two.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: You're talking Dallas Cowboys dead cap money, and you're doing that,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: you know, because the Cowboys have had a lot of
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: dead cap hits over the years, kind of taking it
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: from there, all right, We'll be back to wrap up
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Hour number two here on Sports Medio AM thirteen under
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the Zone.
