Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Let's do the Maller Mambo. It's our number one. Happy
- 0:06Speaker 1: Tuesday to you. Our final Tuesday show of the month
- 0:08Speaker 1: of September. This the 29th day of the month here
- 0:12Speaker 1: on the Ben Maller Show podcast. We stayed up all
- 0:15Speaker 1: night to give you a fresh pod. And here in
- 0:17Speaker 1: our number one, Monday night football. The Eagles favored on
- 0:22Speaker 1: the road against the Bears. That did not go so well.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Where is the Maller panic-o-meter? Where are you at on
- 0:30Speaker 1: Vic Fangio's Eagles defense after getting carved up by a
- 0:34Speaker 1: third-string quarterback, 38-year-old Case Keenum, for Chicago? Also, can we
- 0:40Speaker 1: stop protecting Jalen Hurts, the quarterback for Philadelphia, and admit
- 0:44Speaker 1: that he was terrible against the Bears? And should the
- 0:49Speaker 1: aforementioned Case Keenum remain the Bears' starter— Should he be
- 0:56Speaker 1: the Bears' starter until Caleb Williams returns? We'll talk about
- 1:00Speaker 1: that as well. And who knows what else? It's our
- 1:03Speaker 1: number one, and it's yours right now. Making a case,
- 1:12Speaker 1: and oh what a case it was, for one night,
- 1:15Speaker 1: anything can happen on a given Monday, I was told. Well,
- 1:19Speaker 1: that wasn't the movie, it was a given Sunday. Anyway,
- 1:21Speaker 1: welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
- 1:27Speaker 1: Maller Show. We are in the air again. Everywhere, cranking
- 1:34Speaker 1: up the old boom box, old school style, as we
- 1:37Speaker 1: drive around the bend, coast to coast, border to border,
- 1:42Speaker 1: and beyond, on the vast and theatrically powerful microphones of
- 1:48Speaker 1: FSR emanating live from the nation. The hibernation of the
- 1:56Speaker 1: audio nation as we hang out here. Guaranteed human. And
- 2:01Speaker 1: guaranteed that Holler and James would call up and fall
- 2:04Speaker 1: asleep at some point from the world-famous Fox Sports Radio
- 2:07Speaker 1: studios where Tree in Chicago, Yefimi, they're all happy. I
- 2:12Speaker 1: don't know about the black Irishman over there in Omaha
- 2:15Speaker 1: or Coach Russell in Orlando or... or Mike in New Hampshire,
- 2:20Speaker 1: or any of those guys. I don't know about that.
- 2:22Speaker 1: I do know that this portion of the Ben Maller show,

- 2:58Speaker 1: don't bury the lead, my man! We go to the
- 3:01Speaker 1: Windy City, Chicago, Illinois. What a cool town to hang
- 3:05Speaker 1: out in there. Visit every once in a while. Good
- 3:08Speaker 1: city there. And the... Well, some parts of it are
- 3:11Speaker 1: not great, but that's every city. So the final chapter.
- 3:14Speaker 1: The final chapter of week number three. Week three card.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Number three!
- 3:21Speaker 1: It all played out on television. On the shores of
- 3:26Speaker 1: Lake Michigan. At some point here, the Bears will leave
- 3:29Speaker 1: Illinois and Chicago and head off to Indiana. But for now,
- 3:34Speaker 1: they're still... The Chicago Bears, the real Chicago Bears. Jalen
- 3:38Speaker 1: Hurts and the E-A-G-L-E-S. Suck, suck, suck. The Eagles flew
- 3:44Speaker 1: in to Chicago there, played the Bears. And we thought, well,
- 3:50Speaker 1: maybe Tyson Bajent would play. Well, he didn't play. No, no,
- 3:55Speaker 1: he was not there. I mean, he was there. He
- 3:56Speaker 1: was a backup. And Case Keenum played. I didn't even
- 3:59Speaker 1: know he was still in the NFL. You had Fox
- 4:01Speaker 1: refugees Joe Buck and Troy Aikman. Troy Aikman letting everyone
- 4:05Speaker 1: know he's a lame duck. Does not have a contract
- 4:07Speaker 1: next season. Wants everyone to know that. Should all feel
- 4:10Speaker 1: bad for Troy Aikman. Just made millions of dollars to
- 4:12Speaker 1: give cliches on television for years. So they were calling
- 4:16Speaker 1: the game there on ABC. I don't know if you
- 4:18Speaker 1: were watching or not. Perhaps not. But we were. And
- 4:23Speaker 1: oh my, it's our good mitzvah today. Case Keenum. rising
- 4:27Speaker 1: from the ashes like the Phoenix. He went out there,
- 4:30Speaker 1: made his first NFL start in nearly three years, and
- 4:35Speaker 1: led Chicago to an easy win, 27-7. The game was
- 4:39Speaker 1: not in doubt in the second half here, as they
- 4:44Speaker 1: absolutely manhandled the Bears, manhandled the Philadelphia Bears, And Case
- 4:48Speaker 1: Keenum completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards, two touchdowns,
- 4:55Speaker 1: filling in for Caleb Williams, who's still riding on a
- 4:59Speaker 1: golf cart somewhere. Keenum scored on a one-yard QB keeper
- 5:05Speaker 1: as well, and that was his first rushing touchdown since
- 5:09Speaker 1: before the pandemic. It's been a minute. It's been a minute.
- 5:14Speaker 1: That wrapped up a 13-play drive and burned more than
- 5:19Speaker 1: eight minutes of the fourth quarter. Case Keenum played keep-away
- 5:25Speaker 1: with the Philadelphia Eagles defense. Case Keenum played keep-away. My God.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Khalif Raymond was the leading receiver for the Bears. He
- 5:35Speaker 1: had six catches for 90 yards at a 41-yard catch-and-run
- 5:39Speaker 1: touchdown there for the Bears. who ended up taking control
- 5:44Speaker 1: of the game pretty much, it's like really never in doubt.
- 5:48Speaker 1: As the Eagles did nothing on offense, the Bears improved
- 5:52Speaker 1: 2-1 on the year. And I get that bad taste
- 5:57Speaker 1: after that ugly, ugly loss to the Vikings in their
- 6:02Speaker 1: previous game. And they had 24 first downs. The Chicago Bears,
- 6:07Speaker 1: with the rotting carcass of Case Keenum, had 24 first downs.
- 6:12Speaker 1: They also ran for over 120 yards against the Philadelphia defense.
- 6:18Speaker 1: The better story is in the losing locker room. My, oh, my.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni, what do you have to say for your
- 6:25Speaker 1: pathetic football team? Nick Sirianni, head coach of the Eagles,
- 6:28Speaker 1: let me know.
- 6:29Speaker 3: I think we all have to own that loss right there.
- 6:32Speaker 3: I don't think anybody coached well. I don't think anyone
- 6:35Speaker 3: played well. It was a true team loss. And when
- 6:38Speaker 3: it's a true team loss, I have to look at
- 6:41Speaker 3: myself first.
- 6:42Speaker 1: We weren't ready to coach.
- 6:44Speaker 3: We weren't ready to play. And that ultimately starts and
- 6:47Speaker 3: ends with me.
- 6:48Speaker 1: Right out of the SportsCliché. com textbook right there. My God.
- 6:53Speaker 1: I've noticed doing this job over the years, there's certain
- 6:56Speaker 1: crutches that these guys all use. Typically, got to watch
- 6:59Speaker 1: the tape. He didn't say got to watch the tape.
- 7:01Speaker 1: But you never can blame individuals. I love it, too,
- 7:04Speaker 1: when individuals obviously cost you the game. Kicker misses a
- 7:07Speaker 1: field goal. Quarterback misses a bunny throw that would have
- 7:11Speaker 1: won the game. The game actually, there's a play in
- 7:14Speaker 1: the first quarter. Shut the F up. Just shut the
- 7:17Speaker 1: F up. Screw you. So this word is emasculating. That
- 7:22Speaker 1: was an emasculating performance for Nick Sirianni's team. They're 2-1.
- 7:26Speaker 1: This is the first halfway decent opponent they've played, and
- 7:29Speaker 1: they did not answer the bell there. A lifeless offensive performance.
- 7:34Speaker 1: But we're going to start on the defense. That's a
- 7:36Speaker 1: good jumping-off point. So let us discuss the question. Let's
- 7:40Speaker 1: dust off the Malheur Panic-O-Meter. The Malheur Panic-O-Meter. Where are
- 7:47Speaker 1: you at on Vic Fangio's Eagles defense getting carved up
- 7:52Speaker 1: by a 38-year-old third-string quarterback named Case Keenum? So I've
- 7:58Speaker 1: got 1990s TV star, bird's-eye view, and Van Gogh. And
- 8:07Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together, and we
- 8:10Speaker 1: will stop and smell the roses. And we'll also stop
- 8:16Speaker 1: and smell the poo-poo from the Philadelphia Eagles. So the
- 8:21Speaker 1: Maller panic meter, 1 to 10. You know how this works,
- 8:24Speaker 1: 1 to 10. I am at a 9.5 for the Eagles. Oh,
- 8:29Speaker 1: you're overreacting, Maller. I don't think I am. Let me
- 8:33Speaker 1: make my case. I'll tell you why I'm at a
- 8:34Speaker 1: 9.5 for the Philadelphia Eagles defense. The Eagles did not
- 8:38Speaker 1: just lose this game. They got smacked around by the
- 8:41Speaker 1: running game, by an old man quarterback, a quarterback who
- 8:45Speaker 1: I believe is old enough to still check his Hotmail account.
- 8:49Speaker 1: He might even have an AOL account. Oh, my God!
- 8:53Speaker 2: Yes!
- 8:55Speaker 1: And this is the personification of a team that was
- 8:59Speaker 1: not ready to play. Completely lethargic. It looked like they
- 9:04Speaker 1: were playing in wet mud, but the Bears were not.
- 9:08Speaker 1: The Eagles defense was playing like that. And Case Keenum,
- 9:11Speaker 1: at age 38, comes out there, makes his first start
- 9:14Speaker 1: in almost three years, and he turned into a 1990s,
- 9:18Speaker 1: early 90s TV star. He was straight up. Doogie Houser, MD.
- 9:24Speaker 1: He was. It was a surgical slicing of the Philadelphia
- 9:28Speaker 1: Eagles there as they took out all the bones of
- 9:31Speaker 1: the Eagles and then chopped up the meat into little
- 9:34Speaker 1: bite-sized pieces there. Did you know Case Keenum, against the
- 9:39Speaker 1: blitz from the Philadelphia football team, they blitzed 11 times.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Case Keenum, how many passes do you think he completed
- 9:47Speaker 1: out of 11 blitzes where they threw? You want like
- 9:52Speaker 1: six of 11? That'd be good, right? Six of 11.
- 9:54Speaker 1: How about seven? Seven of 11, like the store?
- 9:59Speaker 2: No?
- 10:00Speaker 1: It was not. How about 11 out of 11? No,
- 10:04Speaker 1: I didn't play in the NFL. I just think that's good.
- 10:07Speaker 1: 11 out of 11 against the Blitz. It's tied for
- 10:11Speaker 1: the fourth most completion since the nerds started tracking that
- 10:16Speaker 1: statistic without a incompletion. And that goes back a couple
- 10:21Speaker 1: of decades. They've been keeping track of that stat. As
- 10:24Speaker 1: Uncle Vic's guys were dragged, they were dented and demolished
- 10:28Speaker 1: defensively here. They could not get the Bears off the field,
- 10:32Speaker 1: which seemingly is problematic. Oh, you can't say that! You're
- 10:38Speaker 1: being mean! I know, I know. And up front, Philadelphia,
- 10:42Speaker 1: my entire life, they've always prided themselves on having this
- 10:44Speaker 1: physical defense. They haven't always been good, but they're like, hey,
- 10:47Speaker 1: we're physical. We can get this done. And they were
- 10:51Speaker 1: pushed around. Bears had 128 yards on the ground, and
- 10:55Speaker 1: it was nice and soft like Play-Doh. Nice and soft
- 10:59Speaker 1: like Play-Doh against that Chicago offense. And the Birds, they
- 11:05Speaker 1: appear to have a leak in the middle of the defense.
- 11:09Speaker 1: From what I've seen here, they have some problems there
- 11:11Speaker 1: in the middle. It's a trend now. We're three weeks
- 11:14Speaker 1: into the season, and the linebackers and the safeties are
- 11:18Speaker 1: not exactly getting her done at this point. Now they've
- 11:20Speaker 1: got the Rams up next. So that's two teams coming
- 11:23Speaker 1: off a loss. We'll see how that goes. Now, meanwhile,
- 11:26Speaker 1: page two. Now to the offense of the Birds, which
- 11:31Speaker 1: was very offensive. The question, can we stop protecting Jalen
- 11:36Speaker 1: Hurts and admit that he was terrible? against Chicago. Can
- 11:42Speaker 1: we just stop? A lot of people say, well, he
- 11:43Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. They always give you, yeah, but, yeah, but, yeah, but, yeah, but,
- 11:47Speaker 1: the yeah, but rabbit. Yeah, but he won the Super Bowl. Okay.
- 11:51Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley had 5,000 yards rushing that year. Defense was elite,
- 11:56Speaker 1: all that stuff. Jalen Hurts, yet again, looking like a
- 12:00Speaker 1: guy that does not elevate the people around him. This
- 12:03Speaker 1: is something we see quite often with Jalen Hurts. and
- 12:06Speaker 1: he was playing quarterback like somebody had replaced the playbook,
- 12:10Speaker 1: and they said, hey, let's play a joke on Jalen Hurts.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Instead of giving him the playbook, let's give him the
- 12:15Speaker 1: Cheesecake Factory menu. And so he was trying to run
- 12:18Speaker 1: plays off that. Can I get the chicken littles? Can
- 12:20Speaker 1: I get the chicken? No, no. Okay. Can I get
- 12:23Speaker 1: the burger and fries? No, no, no. How about the mozzarella? No,
- 12:26Speaker 1: I can't get the mozzarella. How about, wait a minute.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Can I get the mac and cheese balls? No, we
- 12:31Speaker 1: can't get that. Okay. All right. So up first for
- 12:34Speaker 1: Philadelphia this year. It's kind of like a college team game.
- 12:39Speaker 1: You know how these college teams play these directional schools,
- 12:42Speaker 1: their paycheck games, where they just cut a check to
- 12:45Speaker 1: some pathetic school who takes the money to get beaten
- 12:48Speaker 1: to a pulp. And that's essentially what the Eagles had.
- 12:51Speaker 1: They had a soft launch to start the year. They
- 12:53Speaker 1: still almost effed up against Tennessee. But they played Washington
- 12:56Speaker 1: week one. That's a bad team. Tennessee, a bad team.
- 12:59Speaker 1: And so they were in the kiddie pool. To start
- 13:03Speaker 1: the year. And then the Eagles go against Chicago. And
- 13:07Speaker 1: Chicago's like, we're in the deep end here. And it
- 13:10Speaker 1: turns out Jalen Hurts did not bring his floaties. And
- 13:13Speaker 1: so it was a problem. The Bears putting... Jalen Hurts
- 13:17Speaker 1: into a maze. They said, all right, let's toss him
- 13:19Speaker 1: into a maze here. So he was in a corn maze,
- 13:21Speaker 1: and he spent about three hours of time running into
- 13:25Speaker 1: the hedges and thoroughly baffled by the defensive strategy of Chicago.
- 13:33Speaker 1: And it's like, man, it's like they tossed him a
- 13:35Speaker 1: Rubik's Cube. And they said, all right, Jalen, solve the
- 13:38Speaker 1: Rubik's Cube. And he said, OK, I'll solve it. And
- 13:40Speaker 1: then he just started chewing on it. Well, that's not
- 13:42Speaker 1: going to get it done. That's not it. And we
- 13:44Speaker 1: were surprised that Jalen did not trip because he appeared
- 13:48Speaker 1: to tie his shoes properly, which I think is the
- 13:51Speaker 1: only thing, the only thing that he did well was
- 13:55Speaker 1: tie his shoes prior to the game. Because, man, everything
- 13:59Speaker 1: else was pure quarterback detention without recess. Bad. They had
- 14:06Speaker 1: three straight three and outs. In the second half there,
- 14:11Speaker 1: that's run a play, run a play, run a play, punt.
- 14:14Speaker 1: And that means now they've done that nine times this season.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Nine times the Eagles have gotten the ball and not
- 14:22Speaker 1: been able to get a first down and nine times
- 14:25Speaker 1: had to punt after three plays. That's it. And so
- 14:29Speaker 1: it's a mess. It is a mess. And Jalen Hurts
- 14:33Speaker 1: went up in weight class here, and the Eagles offense did,
- 14:37Speaker 1: and immediately looked for the white towel. Body blow, body blow,
- 14:41Speaker 1: just like that. And ultimately, Jalen Hurts, he ended up
- 14:44Speaker 1: having a bird's eye view from the cockpit as he
- 14:47Speaker 1: flew the Vomit Comet for the Eagles offense there, a
- 14:51Speaker 1: nonstop flight destination loser's lounge. And they landed right there.
- 14:55Speaker 1: They went into the loser's lounge. They had a cocktail there.
- 14:58Speaker 1: And you're supposed to be better than that. And, yeah, yeah,
- 15:02Speaker 1: this is one of those teams to keep an eye on.
- 15:05Speaker 1: You look down the line, teams that could go kerfluey
- 15:08Speaker 1: and blow things up. Tampa Bay's on that short list.
- 15:11Speaker 1: The Eagles are certainly on that short list of teams
- 15:14Speaker 1: that could say, okay, this is not going well. Let's
- 15:17Speaker 1: change the coach. Let's change the quarterback. And the winds
- 15:21Speaker 1: of change will start howling. Now, speaking of winds, we
- 15:24Speaker 1: go to the Chicago side, the winner's locker room. The
- 15:27Speaker 1: better story is in the loser's locker room. But we
- 15:29Speaker 1: go to the winner's locker room there. And with Caleb
- 15:32Speaker 1: Williams still away for likely a couple more weeks for
- 15:36Speaker 1: Da Bears, Case Keenum, as he upstaged everybody. We talked
- 15:42Speaker 1: about Case Keenum, the story here. He stole the show.
- 15:46Speaker 1: So the question going forward, should Case Keenum remain the
- 15:52Speaker 1: Bears starter until Caleb Williams returns? So I'm nodding my head.
- 16:00Speaker 1: There's really no other answer. I don't even know why
- 16:01Speaker 1: this is a debate. Yet it seems everything is a
- 16:05Speaker 1: debate these days. But I am Benny Brightside on the
- 16:07Speaker 1: old Rams quarterback, Case Keenum. I am Benny Brightside here.
- 16:10Speaker 1: And I say you keep that old jalopy. with 150,000
- 16:16Speaker 1: miles on it. You keep that car on the highway
- 16:19Speaker 1: until the transmission falls out. And yeah, that's what I
- 16:23Speaker 1: would do. Case Keenum was that impressive. Of course, we
- 16:28Speaker 1: had no expectations for Case Keenum. The fact that he
- 16:32Speaker 1: was able to breathe and walk and chew gum, we
- 16:36Speaker 1: were like, wow, that's pretty impressive. Man, it was a,
- 16:39Speaker 1: by the standard we had for Case Keenum, that was
- 16:42Speaker 1: a virtuoso performance. It was. Keenum did not merely hold
- 16:46Speaker 1: down the fort, and he wasn't just a game manager.
- 16:50Speaker 1: He actually installed the new kitchen, which was unexpected. He
- 16:53Speaker 1: installed the new kitchen. Yeah, 38 years young, and apparently
- 16:58Speaker 1: preserved the last three years in football, you know, in
- 17:02Speaker 1: football goo to keep him fresh and all that stuff.
- 17:05Speaker 1: And yeah, listen, Tyson Bajent had been designated the QB
- 17:10Speaker 1: number two, and he's making $ 5 million a year. And premium,
- 17:16Speaker 1: supposedly a premium backup. That's what you all say, premium backup,
- 17:19Speaker 1: Tyson Bajent. But last I checked, this is the results-based business, right?
- 17:25Speaker 1: This is the results-based business and all that. So you
- 17:27Speaker 1: don't bench Van Gogh. You don't bench Van Gogh halfway
- 17:31Speaker 1: through the starry night because the other guy has a
- 17:36Speaker 1: nicer contract. You don't do that. And Keenum has earned
- 17:39Speaker 1: another start. Now, it's more likely than not, based on
- 17:41Speaker 1: his track record with all these teams he's played for,
- 17:44Speaker 1: that Case Keenum will go out and poop the bed.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Because that's normally what happens. He'll have a game like
- 17:50Speaker 1: this where he looks really good, and then you'll be like, okay,
- 17:52Speaker 1: he can do that again. And no, no, no. He'll
- 17:54Speaker 1: have like one or two good games in a row,
- 17:56Speaker 1: and then it goes sideways. It goes sideways fast. But
- 18:01Speaker 1: this is not Little League. Last I checked, it is
- 18:03Speaker 1: not Little League. Everybody does not get an inning. So
- 18:06Speaker 1: if Case Keenum is the guy, which he appeared to be,
- 18:08Speaker 1: you just send him back out there, and the depth
- 18:10Speaker 1: chart is written in pencil. Not pen. In pencil. For
- 18:15Speaker 1: a reason. So Case Keenum, the football equivalent for the
- 18:18Speaker 1: Bears here. It's kind of like finding... $ 20 stuffed in
- 18:23Speaker 1: that little weird pocket. You know how the jeans have
- 18:25Speaker 1: that little weird pocket in the front there? And you
- 18:27Speaker 1: found $ 20 in there. You're like, wow, that's kind of weird.
- 18:30Speaker 1: And it's great. I'm not going to complain. It's nice.
- 18:33Speaker 1: I know they're old jeans. I'm not going to complain
- 18:35Speaker 1: about that. You keep Cinderella in there. At the ball.
- 18:40Speaker 1: You say, all right, Cinderella, you're at the ball. Keep
- 18:42Speaker 1: going there until the slipper breaks and turns back into
- 18:44Speaker 1: a crappy Skechers sneaker, and then you make the change.
- 18:47Speaker 1: It is the Ben Maller Show. Your thoughts on that?
- 18:50Speaker 1: 877-99 on Fox. If you'd like to be part, 877-996-6369.

- 19:13Speaker 1: is it true a notorious character in the NFL caught
- 19:20Speaker 1: camera hunting? Yeah, shopping for a camera. What is that

- 22:03Speaker 1: the Mallard Militia chiming in here. A lot to say.
- 22:06Speaker 1: What do we got here? Let's see. OG Art Puffin says, Ben,
- 22:12Speaker 1: when I learned that Casey, the brain Keenum, would be starting,
- 22:15Speaker 1: I jumped right on. Shoot, if Marcus Mariota can do it,
- 22:20Speaker 1: so can Keenum, man. This is great. It's only week
- 22:25Speaker 1: three and already... He says it feels like the playoffs.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Hell yeah. There you go. Analog Al wants to know
- 22:32Speaker 1: more about football goo. You'll have to read my book
- 22:35Speaker 1: about that. Josh Allen, not the real Josh Allen, but
- 22:38Speaker 1: the Josh Allen burner account says that Case Keenum is
- 22:41Speaker 1: now 4-0 against Big D Uncle Vic Fandrio. And Yefimi
- 22:47Speaker 1: appears to be completely hammered. And he's just sending random
- 22:51Speaker 1: messages about how great the Bears are and Keenum and
- 22:54Speaker 1: we kicked their ass and all that stuff. He's a
- 22:56Speaker 1: Chicago guy. He's very happy about that, as you might imagine.
- 23:01Speaker 1: What else do we have? Michael in Tulsa says, Ben,
- 23:03Speaker 1: A-plus on the opening Mallard monologue. I neither hate nor
- 23:07Speaker 1: love the Eagles. I'd like to know the scale of
- 23:11Speaker 1: how much they will be absolutely roasted by the local
- 23:14Speaker 1: Philadelphia media like a turkey. I'd put it at about
- 23:20Speaker 1: a hopeful 7-minus, he says. The Philadelphia Eagles, the Philadelphia
- 23:26Speaker 1: media is not what it used to be back when
- 23:28Speaker 1: Angelo Cataldi was doing a morning show and you had
- 23:33Speaker 1: people that had venom. There's some venom left in the
- 23:36Speaker 1: Philadelphia media, but it's not like it used to be.
- 23:40Speaker 1: In the olden days, Howard Eskin would come out and just...
- 23:44Speaker 1: deliver the hammer of God on the Philadelphia Eagles. And
- 23:49Speaker 1: you don't get that now. It's not the same. Nostra
- 23:52Speaker 1: Dumbass from Seattle writes and says, good job by Case
- 23:55Speaker 1: Keenum showing that being 38 isn't too old to lead
- 23:59Speaker 1: a team. Well, did you know that it's the year
- 24:02Speaker 1: of the old guy? I saw a stat that said
- 24:04Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks who are 38 years or older have started
- 24:08Speaker 1: 10 games during the first three weeks of the season.
- 24:11Speaker 1: And they are seven and three. It's an old guy's league.
- 24:15Speaker 1: It's an old guy's league. Old guy quarterback, 7-3 in
- 24:17Speaker 1: the NFL. Spock's Weed from the Oregon Trail says, Making
- 24:24Speaker 1: a case. I see what you did there. So did
- 24:27Speaker 1: everyone else. But I want to be the first to
- 24:30Speaker 1: send a message in. So there you go. Common Sense
- 24:35Speaker 1: Guy on X writes and says, I continue to ask
- 24:37Speaker 1: why is defensive pass interference a penalty in yards and
- 24:42Speaker 1: an automatic first down? When offensive pass interference should also
- 24:46Speaker 1: be a loss of downs. Never, ever ask for the
- 24:51Speaker 1: rules to make sense because they don't make sense. And
- 24:55Speaker 1: it's weird. They get together every year. They have a
- 24:59Speaker 1: huddle at some resort in California or Florida or Arizona.
- 25:04Speaker 1: And they just go over the rules and manipulate the
- 25:06Speaker 1: rules on a yearly basis. That's what they do. All right,
- 25:09Speaker 1: it is the Ben Maller Show. Let's go to the
- 25:11Speaker 1: phones right now. And let's see here. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Let's say hello to, well, let's start with a Bears fan.
- 25:19Speaker 1: And we start out with Lucky Tony, who's very happy.
- 25:23Speaker 1: He's giddy, Lucky Tony, with the Bears getting the victory. Hello,
- 25:26Speaker 1: Lucky Tony in the Bay Area. Welcome, Tony.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Hey, Ben. On Thursday, Poppy said that Khalid Williams will
- 25:33Speaker 2: lead the Bears against the Eagles.
- 25:35Speaker 1: On Sunday, he said that he picked the Eagles to
- 25:38Speaker 1: win over the Bears.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Get rid of that fucking weasel.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Bears.
- 25:41Speaker 1: All right. Thank you for that. Good way to begin
- 25:45Speaker 1: the night there on the calls, and that'll help the
- 25:47Speaker 1: downloads on the podcast. I think you could say that.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Do I need to dump it? No, I don't think that.
- 25:52Speaker 1: I don't see a problem with that. So the incognito quarterback...
- 25:58Speaker 1: What is that about? Let's see if Anthony knows. Anthony
- 26:00Speaker 1: in Louisiana, do you know what the incognito quarterback is
- 26:03Speaker 1: about there, Anthony? No. Okay, so Caleb Williams, you know
- 26:06Speaker 1: who that is? Yeah. What teams do you play for?
- 26:09Speaker 2: The Bears.
- 26:10Speaker 1: Oh, you're such a football guy. So Caleb Williams, the
- 26:13Speaker 1: Bears quarterback, during the Monday night game, he didn't play
- 26:16Speaker 1: in the game, but he became a trending topic because
- 26:19Speaker 1: of his sideline attire. So Caleb Williams, and you can't
- 26:23Speaker 1: see this because you're blind, Anthony, but Caleb Williams was
- 26:26Speaker 1: spotted playing And he had the hoodie pulled tightly over
- 26:30Speaker 1: his head, dark sunglasses, and he had this, like, I'm
- 26:34Speaker 1: trying to hide. I don't want anyone to see me.
- 26:38Speaker 1: And there was a lot of poking of Caleb Williams,
- 26:42Speaker 1: goofing on him. He was out with a hamstring injury.
- 26:46Speaker 1: The optics, the social media chatter was, And the, like,
- 26:52Speaker 1: what is he doing? What is he trying to hide?
- 26:54Speaker 1: If you're going to hide, shouldn't you sit in the
- 26:56Speaker 1: press box, not stand on the sidelines? Seemed kind of
- 27:00Speaker 1: odd there. It was a bizarre, bizarre look, Anthony. It
- 27:02Speaker 1: was a bizarre look. Yeah, that's it. That is correct.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Look at you. This is, you know what? You should
- 27:12Speaker 1: be on television doing commentary is what you should be doing.
- 27:16Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:18Speaker 1: Hi, Anthony. How are you doing today?
- 27:20Speaker 2: I miss you yesterday.
- 27:22Speaker 1: I hate to not be here on Mondays, but, you know,
- 27:25Speaker 1: a girl needs a day off.
- 27:27Speaker 2: How your daughter doing?
- 27:28Speaker 1: She good.
- 27:29Speaker 4: She good.
- 27:30Speaker 2: You tell her I say hello.
- 27:32Speaker 4: I will indeed.
- 27:33Speaker 2: You tell my friend, I'll tell her, hey. Okay.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Is she on right now? No, she's not on. Darn it.
- 27:38Speaker 1: She's not here, unfortunately. All right. Thank you. That's a
- 27:42Speaker 1: tremendous piece of work right there. That's our guy, our
- 27:46Speaker 1: friend Anthony from Louisiana. Right there. That's why consultants say
- 27:50Speaker 1: don't take calls on talk radio. Right there. That's an example.
- 27:53Speaker 1: In fact, they have a meeting. They'll say, okay, don't
- 27:54Speaker 1: take calls. Why not? Let's play this as example A.
- 27:57Speaker 1: Why not to take calls? Right there. And we'll say, okay,
- 27:59Speaker 1: we agree. And then we'll take another call. And another call.
- 28:02Speaker 1: And another call. And another. And the whole thing. Let's
- 28:09Speaker 1: see here. Josh says, can I get a golden ticket
- 28:12Speaker 1: for sharing a name with a quarterback and a linebacker? Yeah,
- 28:16Speaker 1: if you want to buy one at the Malar X shop,
- 28:19Speaker 1: as you know, Malar X is where all the P1s
- 28:21Speaker 1: get the insider information on the Ben Malar show. So
- 28:24Speaker 1: if you'd like that, you can go over to Malar
- 28:27Speaker 1: X and you can buy a replica golden ticket. And
- 28:31Speaker 1: it'd be great. Now, one of the more interesting moments,
- 28:35Speaker 1: if you were paying close attention to the game on
- 28:39Speaker 1: Monday night, happened involving Jalen Hurts. And it was something
- 28:45Speaker 1: that looked like it was out. They used to have
- 28:46Speaker 1: these blooper tapes back in the old days. They used
- 28:49Speaker 1: to make them old, so they used to have bloopers
- 28:51Speaker 1: and practical jokes and football follies and all that. So
- 28:58Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts somehow, there was an incident involving Jalen Hurts
- 29:02Speaker 1: and a Bears linebacker named TJ Edwards. And Edwards is
- 29:06Speaker 1: a former Eagle. And if you were watching the broadcast,
- 29:10Speaker 1: it appeared that he wandered out directly into the Eagles'
- 29:15Speaker 1: offensive huddle prior to the play. And it was caught
- 29:19Speaker 1: on camera, candid camera there. And it was crazy because
- 29:24Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts apparently did not realize that a player from
- 29:29Speaker 1: the other team was in his huddle. That you would
- 29:34Speaker 1: think that he's wearing the wrong laundry. TJ Edwards does
- 29:39Speaker 1: not have the bear logo on his helmet. He's got
- 29:42Speaker 1: that C for the bears. And it was crazy that,
- 29:46Speaker 1: that hurts was, I guess he was so locked in
- 29:48Speaker 1: on whatever he was trying to repeat to the people
- 29:51Speaker 1: in the huddle. He did not understand or notice that
- 29:55Speaker 1: there was a bears defender standing among his offensive team. Co-workers.
- 30:01Speaker 1: I understand tunnel vision, but don't you have to have,
- 30:04Speaker 1: as a quarterback, situational awareness? You know what I'm saying?
- 30:08Speaker 1: You've got to kind of know, and you've got to
- 30:09Speaker 1: have some feeling that there's a defender closing in on you.
- 30:12Speaker 1: And it was crazy. And shortly after that, that possession,
- 30:18Speaker 1: by the way, ended up with a Jalen Hurts interception.
- 30:22Speaker 1: And so Hurts got absolutely hammered. The situational awareness happened.
- 30:26Speaker 1: for Jalen Hurts. Not very good. Not very good. All right,
- 30:29Speaker 1: let's go back to the phones. Let's say hello to
- 30:32Speaker 1: Big Daddy, who's in Memphis. Hello, Big Daddy. Welcome.
- 30:38Speaker 2: Say hello to all my fans and all my constituents. Boy,
- 30:41Speaker 2: I'll tell you the truth, boy, it's just getting ridiculous
- 30:44Speaker 2: out here. Win a game, lose a game, win a game,
- 30:47Speaker 2: lose a game. Then you're out of town, got a
- 30:51Speaker 2: little pre-vacation when you see a game. Ridiculous.
- 30:55Speaker 1: Now, you are a cowboy backer. Are you talking about
- 30:58Speaker 1: the cowboy? Yeah.
- 31:00Speaker 2: And what this means, we got backups, and then when
- 31:02Speaker 2: they carry in, they don't need to put them in
- 31:05Speaker 2: there because the starter ain't doing nothing.
- 31:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 31:08Speaker 1: So I have a question for you. All right. So
- 31:12Speaker 1: I guess it's more of a comment than a question.
- 31:14Speaker 1: So you might want to set up your voicemail box. Okay.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Okay.
- 31:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because I may have called you to try
- 31:21Speaker 1: to do the mailbag, and it said you cannot leave
- 31:24Speaker 1: a message because the voicemail box has either not been
- 31:26Speaker 1: set up or is full, so.
- 31:28Speaker 2: Gotcha. We're looking forward to it. I'm going to keep
- 31:32Speaker 2: it right there. I'm on vacation this week.
- 31:34Speaker 1: Oh, you are? Okay, so we will not bother you
- 31:36Speaker 1: then because you're on vacation.
- 31:37Speaker 2: Call, call.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Well, no, you're on vacation. Your phone didn't ring. I
- 31:40Speaker 1: tried calling you. Your phone didn't ring. No.
- 31:42Speaker 2: No, call this Saturday. I'm good. I'll see you. I
- 31:44Speaker 2: got another Saturday.
- 31:46Speaker 1: I'll see what I can do. I'll see what I
- 31:47Speaker 1: can do. I don't know. We'll see what happens.
- 31:49Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 31:50Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I'm looking for a long-distance call,
- 31:55Speaker 2: a number, and I didn't see that on there, so,
- 31:57Speaker 2: you know.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Well, keep in mind, I do not call from me.
- 32:01Speaker 1: I do not leave my number. You can blame this
- 32:03Speaker 1: guy in Chicago named Doc Mike. who 20-something years ago said, hey, Maller,
- 32:08Speaker 1: I'm going to jail. Give me your number. I'll call
- 32:11Speaker 1: you when I get out of jail. And I said, listen,
- 32:13Speaker 1: you only call me once when you get out of jail.
- 32:15Speaker 1: He said, don't worry, Ben. I'm going to call you
- 32:17Speaker 1: once when I get out of jail. That's it, and
- 32:20Speaker 1: I will lose your number. So he got out of jail.
- 32:22Speaker 1: He got out of jail. He called me. And I said, okay, great.
- 32:28Speaker 1: You're out of jail. That's great. Then he proceeded to
- 32:30Speaker 1: call me every single day for about seven or eight years.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Then it became every week. And it's only recently that
- 32:38Speaker 1: he stopped harassing me. But it's been over 20 years,
- 32:41Speaker 1: so it's been a long time.
- 32:43Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you this. Would anything pop up
- 32:45Speaker 2: saying it's you guys? Or anything?
- 32:47Speaker 1: No, no, no. But I'll leave a message or something
- 32:50Speaker 1: like that.
- 32:51Speaker 2: Okay. I'm going to get you because, like I said,
- 32:55Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 32:55Speaker 1: All right, Big Daddy. Well, enjoy your vacation. You going anywhere?
- 32:58Speaker 1: Is it a staycation?
- 33:00Speaker 2: No, I'm going to hang out. You know, I told
- 33:02Speaker 2: you I got that new booth. Oh, yeah, I know
- 33:05Speaker 2: what I want to ask you. Have you ever seen,
- 33:06Speaker 2: you know, we've been into these movies. You ever seen
- 33:08Speaker 2: Cocaine Bear?
- 33:11Speaker 1: No, I haven't. I've heard of it, but I haven't
- 33:13Speaker 1: seen it, no.
- 33:14Speaker 2: Hilarious. Check it out. I got the tune in, baby.
- 33:16Speaker 2: I'm going to holler at you next week.
- 33:18Speaker 1: Alright, there you go. The great Big Daddy on vacation. Alright,
- 33:22Speaker 1: we'll see about that. Everyone says that. It is the
- 33:32Speaker 1: Ben Maller show as we are rolling here through the overnight,
- 33:36Speaker 1: getting a lot of random messages from Yafimi. He's acting
- 33:41Speaker 1: like Hoosier Bill, carpet bombing me. He's now saying Case
- 33:44Speaker 1: Keenum is the GOAT. Okay. I go back to my
- 33:48Speaker 1: comment on when people say GOATs. When I was a kid,
- 33:51Speaker 1: I remember having... Well, not having to. I was excited
- 33:53Speaker 1: to go to the zoo. And you'd go to the
- 33:55Speaker 1: petting zoo. And you'd see the goats. And the goats
- 33:59Speaker 1: always smelled, had a lot of slobber, and had a
- 34:01Speaker 1: lot of flies around their face. And yet everyone said, oh,
- 34:04Speaker 1: you're the goat. Goaty McGoat. Stinky and covered in flies. Right?
- 34:10Speaker 1: Thank you. Yes. Exactly. That's what I'm saying. Is that
- 34:13Speaker 1: supposed to be a compliment?
- 34:14Speaker 2: I know.
- 34:15Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. But it was, oh, the goat.
- 34:17Speaker 1: Who's the goat? classic lazy man sports radio debate. Who's
- 34:22Speaker 1: the goat? Give me the goat. Yeah. Anyway. All right.
- 34:26Speaker 1: Here's the Ben Maller show as we press on. Time now, though,
- 34:31Speaker 1: for the always popular Who Am I game. This is
- 34:34Speaker 1: where we pretend to be somebody else, unless we call
- 34:36Speaker 1: it the Who Am I game to see how that works.
- 34:38Speaker 1: So Chicago Bears quarterback Case Keenum has now joined me
- 34:43Speaker 1: as the only quarterbacks in NFL history to to win
- 34:47Speaker 1: a game as the starting quarterback for seven different NFL teams. Again,
- 34:54Speaker 1: Case Keenum has now joined me as the only quarterback
- 34:56Speaker 1: in NFL history to win a game as the starting
- 35:00Speaker 1: quarterback for seven different NFL teams. Who am I? The answer.
- 35:05Speaker 1: We'll get to it. We'll do it!

- 35:49Speaker 1: We'll pay off the Who Am I game in a minute,
- 35:51Speaker 1: but we had a notorious figure in the NFL who
- 35:57Speaker 1: did what he often does. And if you were paying
- 36:00Speaker 1: close attention on the Monday night game, you may have noticed...
- 36:03Speaker 1: that the Philadelphia Eagles, who did not play very well,
- 36:07Speaker 1: they did have a touchdown just before halftime. They ended
- 36:09Speaker 1: up losing. That was their only score of the game
- 36:12Speaker 1: as they go down. They go down to the Chicago
- 36:17Speaker 1: Bears in Case Keenum. But at halftime of the game,
- 36:19Speaker 1: you had Eagles security chief Dom, a.k.a. Big Dom DeSandro.
- 36:27Speaker 1: who became part of the Monday night broadcast. And it
- 36:32Speaker 1: happened while Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was giving his state-of-the-team address,
- 36:37Speaker 1: that wonderful waste of time called the halftime interview, where
- 36:40Speaker 1: the coach gives a couple of cliches there on their
- 36:43Speaker 1: way to the locker room to take a whiz and
- 36:45Speaker 1: eat a sandwich. And DeSandro was standing right behind Nick
- 36:51Speaker 1: Sirianni as the interview began, and he was squarely on camera,
- 36:56Speaker 1: almost like he knew exactly where to stand. Now, the
- 37:00Speaker 1: cameraman appeared to reposition the shot to get Big Dom
- 37:04Speaker 1: out of the frame. So what do you think Big
- 37:07Speaker 1: Dom did? Yeah, he did the slide. He did the
- 37:11Speaker 1: electric slide. And he moved over. He moved his fat
- 37:15Speaker 1: ass back into camera. It's so great. Oh, it's so great.
- 37:22Speaker 1: Dom DeSandro. Big Dom. Doing everything he could do to
- 37:27Speaker 1: possibly get some TV time. Now, years ago when I
- 37:31Speaker 1: was a radio stringer, we knew in the locker room,
- 37:35Speaker 1: and we'd pretty much just stick a microphone in the
- 37:38Speaker 1: face of these athletes, and there were these things. The
- 37:41Speaker 1: term's been canceled, but it was a term we had
- 37:44Speaker 1: for these group interviews. It started with gang. I don't
- 37:47Speaker 1: remember the other word. There might have been two words,
- 37:49Speaker 1: but the first word was gang. And then we all
- 37:52Speaker 1: stand around. But we knew as radio guys or just anybody,
- 37:55Speaker 1: if you wanted to get on camera, you would stand
- 37:58Speaker 1: behind the person who where the cameras were and they'd
- 38:04Speaker 1: be showing and you'd be right there. You get some
- 38:06Speaker 1: TV time. And that may or may not have happened. Now,
- 38:09Speaker 1: the reason I did it, because I got a little
- 38:11Speaker 1: extra bump from the radio station if my mic flag,
- 38:14Speaker 1: you know, that thing that has the logo of the
- 38:17Speaker 1: radio station. So if my mic flag got on TV,
- 38:20Speaker 1: they would give me a little bump. Oh, they got
- 38:23Speaker 1: a little TV advertising there. So that's what I would do.
- 38:26Speaker 1: But yeah, Dom DeSandro. Big Dom there. Making sure he's
- 38:30Speaker 1: getting some TV time on Monday Night Football. That was hilarious.
- 38:33Speaker 1: It's like a satire thing. Time now for the payoff
- 38:37Speaker 1: on the Who Am I game. Case Keenum. Dumb bears.
- 38:42Speaker 1: He has now joined me as the only quarterbacks in
- 38:45Speaker 1: NFL history to win a game as the starting quarterback
- 38:50Speaker 1: for seven different NFL teams. Now to put that in Perspective.
- 38:56Speaker 1: So there's only 32 teams in the NFL. So that
- 39:00Speaker 1: means that you have won for over 20% of all
- 39:04Speaker 1: NFL teams. So who am I? Along with Case Keenum,
- 39:08Speaker 1: that is the question. What is the answer? And let's see,
- 39:12Speaker 1: does anyone know the answer? George Blanda from our buddy Mr. Irrigation.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Deep in the heart of Texas there in Houston. Zippy
- 39:20Speaker 1: the Pinhead from Alf the Alien O'Piner. Robbie the Mariner
- 39:24Speaker 1: fan going with Justin in Cincinnati's Cat. Yeah. Jeff George.
- 39:30Speaker 1: from Areek in Minnesota. Alec got it right. Bad job
- 39:34Speaker 1: by him. Kirk Cousins from Spock's Weed on the Oregon Trail.
- 39:38Speaker 1: Henry Burris from Yefimi in Chicago. The Purple Rain nightclub
- 39:45Speaker 1: manager watching Da Bears from Michael. Who else do we have?
- 39:50Speaker 1: Christian got it right. Bad job by Christian. Who else?
- 39:53Speaker 1: Big Lou. He's on number two. And he's going with
- 39:57Speaker 1: Devin Hester as his answer. Who else do we have?
- 40:02Speaker 1: Page down. I can't read that on the air.
- 40:06Speaker 2: All right.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Lorena, do you have an answer? The Who Am I game.
- 40:09Speaker 1: Case Keenum, the starting quarterback for the Bears on Monday
- 40:12Speaker 1: night who beat Philadelphia, has now joined me as the
- 40:15Speaker 1: only quarterbacks in NFL history to To win a game
- 40:18Speaker 1: as a starting quarterback for seven different NFL teams. I'm
- 40:21Speaker 1: going to go with Charlie Batch. Charlie Batch. Okay. What
- 40:25Speaker 1: team did he most play for, Charlie Batch?
- 40:28Speaker 2: The one.
- 40:28Speaker 1: I heard Coop feeding the answer.
- 40:30Speaker 2: He did not.
- 40:31Speaker 1: I heard that. He would not. I heard that.
- 40:32Speaker 2: He would not do that.
- 40:33Speaker 1: I heard that. I heard that. Biscuits. He did give
- 40:38Speaker 1: you the right answer. It was the Steelers, but no.
- 40:41Speaker 1: The correct answer. Bergman did the same thing years ago.
- 40:44Speaker 1: It's Ryan Fitzpatrick. Ryan Fitzpatrick. Fitzmagic is the answer.
