  Speaker 1: show be. So our lead this hour to begin the
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: festific is gonna start out with the Sunday Night game
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: in the Land of the Insurs, the Land of the Injurs.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: That's the story big game made for TV extravaganza there
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and we go to the confluence. Now why do we
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: go to the confluence because that's where they played the game,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Right there, where the Monongahela and the Alleghany get together.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: They have a baby and the baby is the Ohio River.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: So that is the birth of the Ohio right there.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: It's very public the PDA type display there and so
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that is where the story was. Mike Tarriko, Chris Collinsworth.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Collinsworth had his knee pads out for the quarterbacks as
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: he always does there and if you.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Didn't see the game.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Maybe not eh, it was a game for a half,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: game for a half in a quarter about a quarter
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: not so good.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: So we watched so you would not have to.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: As Jordan Love passed for almost almost four hundred yards
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and not one, not two, but three touchdowns as Green Bay,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: after falling behind at halftime, sprinted past the Pittsburg Steelers
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: in the second half. Now, the better story, though, is
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: in the losing locker room. So that is where we
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: will begin. And despite him down playing it, saying, well,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: it was not a revenge game.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: It will be different.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: It was at Lambeau. That'd be Aaron Rodgers. Now, Aaron
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Rodgers was put on a pedestal. He was absolutely put
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: on a pedestal here, and he went against his old team.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: We all know the backstory, right, we all know it.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: You'll listen to a sports talk radio show late at
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: night here, you know the backstory. So Rogers was out
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: there doing his thing, and how did that go?
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Not good? Not good?
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Rogers pathetic in the second half in particular there and
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: we'll get into it. But here's Rogers, first of all,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: pointing out that things just didn't go right in many
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: areas including paying attention to what you're supposed to do.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Here's Rogers complaining about the execution of the Steelers.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: We had some discipline issues and some penalties everyone necessary,
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: and then you're not going to win a lot of
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: games when we're so bad on third down. Bos bailed
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: us out some four incredible kicks, But you're playing good
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: teams and need to score toestdowns and we just stalled
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: out in the high red zone.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: All right, so let us discuss. That's a good jumping
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: off point. So the question, how do you.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Explain ain Rogers' performance or lack thereof for Pittsburgh in
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: the second half. So I've got Tommy Hill, figure, eye wash,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and tiki bar, and we will combine all of these
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: things together and we are going to make an outstanding
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: rice cake, which is about what the Steelers were in
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the second half, a rice case.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: As you know, it's disgusting rice cakes. Who wants to
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: eat that crap?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: So A, so much for the Aaron Rodgers payback for
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: ve game and all that stuff, which he tried to downplay,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: but Mike got and Rodgers was a big part of it.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: With the defense was embarrassing. We'll get to that here
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: in a minute.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Even if the Packers had not gotten the benefit of
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: being able to bait the Steeler playoffs because they're undisciplined
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: into excessive penalties, even if that had not been the case,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: the way the Steelers tackled it would not have mattered.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: We're starting out with Aaron Rodgers here, So Aaron Rodgers,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: who was okay. I wouldn't say he was great in
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the first half. He was okay in the first half.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: He watched the game, forget the stats, just watched the game.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And then the second half. If he was the at
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the movie theater, he would have been what kind of
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: snack at the movie theater?
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: He would have been a milk.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Dud, is what he would have been. It was an
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: absolute dud. The shine came off Aaron Rodgers in the
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: second half there real quick in the steel City. And
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the first half. I wouldn't say he was great. I
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: would say he was function functional in the in the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: first half of the game. I thought in the second
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: half there was system malfunction from Aaron Rodgers, and.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: It's like someone went in there and unplugged the motive.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It's like the motem got unplugged and he couldn't get connected,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: he couldn't get online.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Like everything was kind of.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Messed up there. It's like, what's up with that? The
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Steelers actually had a nine point lead at halftime. They're
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: up sixteen to seven. Not riveting football, but they're up
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: by nine points. They got the ball to start the
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: third quarter. Every meatthead ex jock that gets a micro oh,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: they have all the moment of oh my god, they
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: have all the moment of la la la, shoving up
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: your tuckers. They had all the momentum, all them more metium.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: The Pittsburgh Steelers had all of them, all metium. Then
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: they had to play the game, and they rode the
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: vomit comet in the second half momentum, I ass outscored
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: twenty eight to night. It should have been worse than that.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: In fact, in many ways it was worse than that.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: It was really twenty eight to three in the second
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: and a half. There was a late touchdown there. But that
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: is not just a leak. Okay, that is a full
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: on pipe burst in the basement, is what that is
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what happened in the second half of this game. And
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: so they got that late touchdown. The garbage time touchdown
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: was a little bit of a sprits little sprits that
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: was some Tommy Hill figure cologne there right on top
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: of a clogged toilet, which was the Steelers in the
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: second half, and they just put a little spritz of
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Tommy Hill figure.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Cologne on there, right on top of the.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Toilet was clogged up Rogers in the second half. If
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: you take away the charity score game Packers were playing
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: them would just prevent type defense situation. They had a
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: two score lead, two scores and two two point conversions,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: and so then Pittsburgh goes down the field, they drive
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: down with Rogers and they score a touchdown with a
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: couple of minutes to.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Go in the game.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: You take that away because it's really a cheap, garbage
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: time score. The rest of the second half, Rogers averaged
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: less than five yards per pass in the second half.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: He basically handing it off sideways was the way you
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: would describe the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense there. And people will
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: point out the overall numbers for Rogers are not terrible,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: and in fact, some would say they're even good if
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: you just go by the pure stats. Aaron Rodgers overall
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: passer rating even after this game on Sunday Night, where
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: he was not very good in the second half, Rogers
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: still has a higher passer rating at this point. We're
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: at week eight of the season now the Packers and
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Steelers next time they play will be week nine. So
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes do not have as good
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: a quarterback rating as Aaron Rodgers.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: If I had said in the offseason, if I said
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: back in.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: July, all right, whenever Rogers signed, maybe be like August,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: whenever you finally sign. So we're gonna be sitting on
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: the NFL schedule week nine, going in to.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: Pass the midway point.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: It's seventeen games, so eight and a half weeks is
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the midway point of the NFL season. So we're gonna
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: go in there and Rogers is going to have a
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: higher passer rating than Mahomes and Josh Allen. He said, okay,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: all right, we got something here, all right to Steelers
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: are going to be great watch out and yeah, and
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: this is again for those people that dry hump stats.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: And stats tell you what has happened, not what's going
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: to happen, but.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: They also they also tell you a cloudy version of
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: events that took place, a foggy version of events that
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: took place. For example, it's like, would you rather read
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: sheet music? Because you love music, you want to read
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: the sheet music rather than hear the song. I would
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: rather hear the song. The stats are the sheet music, right,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: that's the musical notes on there. But you really would
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: rather hear the song rather than just read it. You
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: get the whole vibe and all that you watch the game.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: The mood, Oh, it's all about the mood. The mood
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: changed after afterime Rogers flat lined and the Packers' offense
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: or Packer's offense did whatever they wanted while Rogers on
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the other side with the Steelers forget about it now.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Speaking of that, turning the page here, Jordan Love became
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the first Hackers quarterbacks since Brett Farvre to complete twenty
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: straight passes in a game. Farv did it way back
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: in seven. I was barely alive then.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: I was like a kid. I remember Rogers having a
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: big game, but I.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Was a child, So twenty oh seven for that performance there.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: That was his final season in Green Bay, where he
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: was having problems with Aaron Rodgers and so far then left,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: went to the Jets and then the vikings and all that,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and so so be it. But the question is not
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: so much about Jordan Love. It's the other side. What
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: on God's green earth was that by Mike Tomlins Pittsburgh
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Steelers defense. What happened to making adjustments? What happened to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: improving as the season goes on? Now, we saw the
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers get sliced up by Joe Flacco. So you
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: took the position that they were going to make that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: a point of emphasis, and they were going to cut
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: down on their mistakes there and clean stuff up. They
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: had a mini bye week, they being the Pittsburgh Steelers.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: How did that go? The adjustments were nonexistent, they were
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: non existent. The Steelers defense just stood there like they
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: were watching a matt Na at the Cinerama Dome. They
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: were just enjoying buttered popcorn.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: Whatever. What was that?
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Horrific? Unacceptable, absolutely unaccepted. Here's Mike Tomlin commenting on one
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: of the most pathetic defensive performances you'll see in the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow Tail is.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: You know, we all have to own it. Certainly you
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: start with the schematics, man, because you know that's the
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: leadership component of it, and certainly we'll be looking at
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: everything that we're doing, man, because some of these problems
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: are somewhat repetitive and we're not getting better fast enough. Mike,
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: I'm not gonna talk too much tonight. We'll take a
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: look at it. As I mentioned, they made some significant
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: plays on possession down ball and you know, you got
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: to get off on third down.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Okay, got it so very important to get off according
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: to Mike Tom It's all right. So anyway, it's like
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: they went to the cinerama doom as I said, they
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: had the buttered pop going there and oh my god.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Now maybe it was just my TV. Sometimes my TV
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: sees things that other TVs don't see. I have no idea,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: but I saw these Steelers playing. I call it the
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: cover m defense, as in the cover Matador.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: Alright, alright, alright, oay, yeah.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: If you want miss tackles, check the Steelers are really
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: good at miss tackles, really good. If you want arm tackles,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: they got those two. A lot of arm tackles, a
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: lot of arm tackles. You want poor pursuit ankle angles
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: where they come at the wrong direction. You know how
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to cut down the path.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: They don't do that. Never never see that.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: It's essentially a video on how not to play defense
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: in the NFL.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: What the Steelers are doing on a weekly basis.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of people on defense in the secondary
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: in particular, that are making business decisions, if you know
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying here. And he allowed the Packers tied end.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Who's a good player, Tucker Craft, who is not that
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: good a player? My god, Tucker Craft. He went yakty
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: yack yards after the catch. There no pushback. And what
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I've noticed, and the kicker on this, is that they're
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: the most expensive defense, they being the Pittsburgh Seris and
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: the entire NFL. They spend more money on defense than
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: anyone else. They're giving up now thirty plus points most games.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: They played seven games, four of the seven they've allowed
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: thirty or more points per game. That's the Pittsburgh.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Steelers at this particular point.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: And the one game where they looked okay against Drake
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: May and the Patriots, that was more of a byproduct
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: because the Patriots, I think they had five turnovers in
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: that game. That was the Ramando Stevenson fumble fumble game. There,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: but it's not bad luck. It's like I look at
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the series we've seen them now in Island games, the
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: last couple of games against the Bengals and against the
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers, and it's just systemic.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: Rot is what it is. I mean, they're just they're
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: not anywhere close to being good.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Now. I get I made the mistake was handicapping the games.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: Mike Tom's gonna go in there, going to the workshop
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: and figure some things out. It doesn't look like they
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: figured anything out at all. And so listen, listen, they're
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: gonna end up winning nine or ten games. They're over
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: five hundred. As bad as the defense is, they're still
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: over five hundred. They're a fake contender. They're in the
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: fake contender zone. The Pittsburgh Steels at this point, just
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: enough there to kind of trick people into thinking may
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: matter and that anybody.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: Can win it.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: It's wide open in the AFC here and nobody is
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: scared of that defense. But the thing about it too, though,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: is you see the guys and it's it's eyewash in
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: the secondary.
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: That's the term here.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: It's the fake hustle where they're kind of around the ball.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: But it looks like they're not. Just based on the
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: eyeball test, it looks like they're not hustling. It's eye washes. Hustles,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: stunt double, that's what eye washes, right, It's guys flying
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: around just enough to get on cameras. So it looks
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: like for the low information fan that they're in position
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: and looks like they cared and looks like they're trying,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: and yet they're not. This is just ridiculous. So that's
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: where we are on that.

  Speaker 1: Rich FSR.

  Speaker 4: Check us out on.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: YouTube, subscribe, hit that thumbs up icon, comment away. So
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: we were giving a curveball the plan. The show was
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: put to bed and we had the baby woke up.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: The baby was put to bed, the baby woke up.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: So the Dodgers are still playing. We have live baseball,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: which is great because all these people are bitching and complaining.
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: I don't understand these games are going so long. I
• 16:35
  Speaker 7: don't come my God, shut up. Welcome to my world,
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: you losers, Welcome to my world. So the Dodgers and
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: Blue Jays are tied at five. They've gone now that
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: Is that cheating.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: They pulled out the the sliced watermelon and pineapple.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: It looked like to me pineapple.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: They're the Dodgers eating snacks in the dugout and they
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: are now going to the bottom of the sixteenth inning
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: at tra Vesarino. I want this game to end either
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: in the bottom of the sixteenth or the seventeenth, because
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I was at the game to win eighteen innings, so
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: I don't want to see this game, this World Series game,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: go more than eighteen because that would then cheapen the
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: game that I was at Red Sox and Dwyers in
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: the World Series years ago. When Max Muntsey hit the
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: home run. The game ended one in the morning, right
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: around one in the morning. It was after midnight. I
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: remember that it was after midnight. So anyway, that is
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: what's going on right now. So we will we will
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: watch that, but we will be talking about something other
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: than that right now, because there is more to discuss
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and more to break down, and so our lead story
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: this hour from Arrowheads Stadium in Cannes City. It was
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: KC and the Sunshine Band, and that is the lead
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the stage for the final game of Week number eight.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Week number eight of the NFL eight one of the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: absolute worst. By the way, the product could not have
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: been less enjoyable if you want competitive games. In fact,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: going back to nineteen seventy, this was, if not the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: largest margin, it was in the top two or three
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: all time in the history of the NFL. I know
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: going into the Monday night game. It was in the discussion.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: It depends on how you spin the stats. How bad
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: this was, but a weekend of blowouts wrapped up with
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: backup quarterback as Marcus Mariota leading the hobbled Commanders into
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Kansas City that played eight there with Patrick Mahomes and
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs, you had Joe Buck and Troy Aikman on
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: the call.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: There were you watching? Did you watch? Were you engaged
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: in this? You were not? Okay.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: So Patrick Mahomes, by his standard, struggled early in the game.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: The first half was a bit of a dud all
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: the way around, a lot of turnovers, a lot of bad,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: sloppy football. And then by the time the game ended,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Mahomes we love round numbers. He was one yard away
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: from a nice, sexy three hundred yards passing at two
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: undred ninety nine yards, ended up with three touchdowns. Kareem
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Hunt found peterrt hit the end zone twice, and the
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Chiefs defense in the second half it looked like they
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: wanted to get out of there. There being Washington as
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Kansas City hog tied the Commanders in the final thirty
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: minutes of that football game. So Kansas City pulls away
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: and they win by three touchdowns twenty eight to seven.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: I am told that's good. I didn't play in the NFL,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: but I'm told that's good on a nice cold October night,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: just days away from Halloween. Now, the better story is
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: in the losing locker room. The better story is in
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: the losing locker room, and the Commander fans very upset,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: very upset with dan Quinn, a lot of range, a
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: lot of anger with the way the Commanders played in
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: the second half.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Of that game.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: And a lot of the conversation is not even so
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: much about how bad the Commanders looked in the second half.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: It's the apathetic appearance of the players on the Washington
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: football team who were so happy after they got their
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: face smashed in by the Chiefs and people up in
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: arms over that, that they were smiling and having a
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: grand old time playing grab ass at the end of
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: the game there on the sidelines. The postgame handshake was
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: like a college party. My god, were they having a
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: good time? People upset with that, And so that's a
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question does
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: dan Quinn deserve the heat that he's getting in the
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: cyber Warfare department for the Commander's performance? Does he deserve
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: some heat for that? Now, my observation on this, I've
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: got Brad pitt Child's play and Circus Circus, and we
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: going to get an end to Game three of the
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: World Series that's going to have We're gonna end game
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: three of the World Series.
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: But number.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: To answer the question, does dan Quinn deserve the crap
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: that he's getting. I'm nodding my head, yes, I'm nodding
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: my head.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: On that. Now, dan Quinn's Commanders, I'm old enough to
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: remember that they were in the final four of the
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: National Football League at the end of last season, and
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: here they are out there, smiling like they were to
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: charity golf outing somewhere in Maryland, just having a grand
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: old time. They were out playing golf with some politicians and.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: Just let me have some lemonade? Is that spiked lemonade?
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: They didn't act like they just got pants in the
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: second half by Kansas City, which is what happened on
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: National TV, by the way, in an Island game, although
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: not a full Island game, because I was flipping back
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and my right hand was getting a workout. If I
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: had only known the Dodgers and Blue Jays would play
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: all night, I wouldn't even bother to watch the first
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: part of the game. I just would have focused on
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: the football game. But I was going back and forth.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: And all that.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: So the Commanders end up on the wrong side, and
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: then all the shenanigans after the game there as Washington
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: did catch lightning in a bottle, and I caught lightning
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: at a bottle last year. That was supposed to be
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: the foundation. That's what I was told. The smart people said,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: this is the foundation.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: This is it.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: The NFL's final four NFC Championship game in Philadelphia, win
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: away from getting the Super Bowl, and.
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: Right there, one win.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Now, let's see some inventory on where the Commanders are.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: We're at a checkpoint week eight. Now, I realized they
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: play seventeen games, so it's not quite the halfway point,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: but nonetheless, for talk radio purposes, we will examine this
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: as the middling point of the NFL season. So where
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: is Washington one year after they were right on the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: cusp of the top of the NFL. So they have
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: been come tumbling down, down, down, down, down, down.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Down, down, down, down down.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: That's where they are right now. And so they have
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: gone from punching above their weight, which is what they
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: did last year. Now they have gone down to the
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: corner bakery and they've ordered a pie, not an apple,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: not a pumpkin, not the banana cream pie. They've gone
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: to the corner bakery and the Commanders have ordered a
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: big humble pie, and they're cutting up the humble pie
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: right now. Although they don't seem to be that worried
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: based on their postgame celebration. You want to give at
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: least the deception that you actually care. So Defensively, the
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Commanders currently are ranked twenty seventh in the NFL. I'm
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: told that's not good the offense. How about the office
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: the Commander's offense?
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: Here? Okay, this group, I know Jadon Daniels has been hurt.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: Middle of the pack.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: There's sixteenth in the NFL. Now I recall, and maybe
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: I'm wrong on this. You can touch up my work
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: if you want. Cliff Kingsbury was the second coming of
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the Messiah as the offensive genius for the Washington Commanders.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: It is amazing. How'd that go? Well, don't ask this year. Now,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: here's the thing about the Commanders watching this team plan.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: I saw him in person a few weeks back against
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: the Chargers, and they actually played well in that game.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: But the thing I look at Washington is they're not
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: bad enough the Commanders to be a lovable train wreck.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: So they're not at that point, and they're not good
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: enough to really matter. They're just kind of stuck in
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: the Bermuda Triangle of the NFL. They're stuck in football
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: purgatory at this point. And as far as the I
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: guess we'll call it, what is the heel? A monster
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: in the room here? Postgame? It was like a country club.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: But is it always like I don't like understand the rage.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: It's always like that at NFL games. They love other
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: NFL players and they cannot wait to hug it out.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: It's warm and fuzzy at the end of every NFL game,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: with few exceptions, with few exceptions. Now there are exceptions,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: but you'd think think that the Washington football team was
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: hosting a nice brunch with sliced meats and sliced cheeses
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: and they hadn't just gotten their teeth kicked in in
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: the second half by the team from Kansas City. But
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: if you're dan Quinn, okay, if you're dan Quinn, to me,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: that's on you. He's supposed to be a happy, go
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: lucky coach and all that. That's fine, but at least
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: give the illusion that you were slightly bobbed.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: And this is always the issue.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: Right we who invest our time as fans, we get
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: emotionally attached the players don't get emotionally attached. It's their gig,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: it's their job. They don't understand why you're so into it.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Just chill out, man, It's just a game. And so
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: we want to go on there and make out at
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: the fifty yard line after we just got are ass kicked.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: We're going to do that. We are going to do
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: that is what we're going to do. Yes, So, how
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: bad was it for the Washington commanders? Was so bad
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: that dan Quinn should hire Brad Pitt. Bring Brad Pitty in.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Remember that famous scene from Moneyball where he was portraying
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Billy Bean and they were in the locker room and
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: he said, hey, you think losing is fun?
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: You think losing is fun?
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: And then the player on the athletics said, well no, okay,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Well if the answer is no, it's not fun, then
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: what the hell are you smiling for. By the way,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: they played thirty minutes of football, they were tied at halftime.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: The Washington football team, I believe at that point they
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: started warming up the diesel engines on the buses and
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: they wanted to make sure that the water in the
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: shower was warm as well. They had just sixty six
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: yards of offense in the second half, and if my
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: math is correct, I drotted this chicken scratch down four
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: first downs in the second half, which I'm told is
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: not good. And they were big underdogs, double digit dogs.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: They being Washington going into this game, they were expected
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: to lose, they were expected to be.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: Blown out out.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: They actually had the game in position at halftime to
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: scratch and claw and make it a fourth quarter game,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: to put the pressure on Kansas City. And instead of
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: doing that.
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: Well, they did the opposite.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: They just got in the fetal position, started sucking their
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: thumb and that was it. Mahomes got going, the defense
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: started crushing people, and that was it. Game over. Absolute
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: weak sauce, Absolute week sauce. Now on the other side.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: Page two.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: So we go now to the Kansas City side of things,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: where things are buzzing. You can almost hear it. There's
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: a buzz in the air. It's almost everywhere. Yes, So question,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: are you gonna go thumbs up or are you gonna
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: go thumbs down? Thumbs upper, thumbs down on Andy Reid's
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Chiefs being back in the catbird seat metaphorically in the AFC.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: All right, that is the question. So thumb to the
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: moon way up. I'm going to the moon, thumb way
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: up to the moon. Now this game, you don't get
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: any style points. It was a blowout win. It was
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: close at halftime. This was what I would call a
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: workman like effort for the Kansas City Chiefs. Here punched
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: the clock the old I can't really say lunch pail
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: because all these guys are millionaires, but you get the point.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: Back in the old days, we'd say lunch pail type game.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, all of a sudden, Patrick
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Mahomes looks like the vintage Patrick Mahomes.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Yet again he does.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: He's got his toys back at wide receiver, He's got
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: his playmakers back. I know Keg drinking. Steve's excited about that.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: And so Mahomes is cooking with a flamethrower at this point.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: So it turns out the reports of Mahomes and the
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Chiefs demise, well, they were cute while they lasted greatly exaggerated.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Mahomes looked in the second half like he was taking
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: batting practice at five point thirty and hitting those batting
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: practice fastballs out of the park. Washington had nothing in
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the second half. Now, some of that was Mahomes. Some
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: of that was Mahomes and what he was doing with
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Kansas City. They got off to the zero to two start.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: They are now five and one, and the one loss
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: in there was the play that they quit against Jacksonville.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Remember the defense quit. They were caught on camera lollygagging,
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: allowing Trevor Lawrence to fall down twice and get up
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: and score a touchdown.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: So that's on them.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: So you could make the argument there's a dimension in
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: the multiverse where they are six and oho and they're
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: lurking in the playoff picture like Michael Myers behind the
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: curtain there. Now nobody think about this, Nobody in the AFC.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: Nobody in the.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: AFC, he said, well, Indianapolis a little bit, but nobody
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: in the AFC West has been able to capitalize on
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: that early facepoint. The Chargers won all these divisional games earlier.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: All right, there you go, this is the Chargers year.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Everything's great. They're set up. Boom boom boom, division win,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: division win, division win, They're ready to go. And now
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: we look like we look at it right now and yeah,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: face plan. So the division led by the Chargers early
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: and they had a shot to bury Kansas City.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: They didn't do it.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: We all know that. Nobody in the AFC West took
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: advantage of it. As we said, so the division is
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: still up for grabs at this point. And now Kansas City.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: As of right now, the Chiefs are back in the
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: playoff picture. They are the last team in the wild
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: card around. They're the last team in the playoffs at
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: this point and still have a shot to be the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: number one seed in the Also, the schedule sets up
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: nicely Kansas City. There is no momentum, so we know that. However,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: they are playing with some confidence.
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: Now they have up ahead.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: If you look, you've got the Bills, Broncos, and Colts
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: upcoming is also by mixed in and so those are
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: massive swing games both in the division and then just
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: the overall hierarchy in the AFC down down the line.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: So Kansas City, I'm trying to say, if you like
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: horror movies, Kansas City this season it's like that classic
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Child's Play.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: Remember that movie.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: It's all movie now, all my references are old, I guess,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: but Child's Play, and that was where Chucky was at.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: The beginning of the movie.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: There he was burned, shot and dismembered, and somehow, because
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: it's Hollywood, managed to come back. Why not Kansas City
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: to begin the year was burn shot and dismembered, And
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: they have come back now and they're right in the
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: middle of it in the AFC and Mahomes is breathing
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: like a dragon with fire. Andy Reid's is suddenly smart again,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: and we're on our way. Of course, the conspiracy theorist
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: will so well, yeah but yeah but yeah, but yeah
