- 1:25Speaker 2: The National Football League always providing content. Let me begin
- 1:30Speaker 2: by just thanking Travis Moger for getting us a Factor
- 1:34Speaker 2: Fiction win last night. Yes, you're welcome. Huge. Easy peasy.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Look at that.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Nice.
- 1:40Speaker 2: A little injury help there. Yes, he did.
- 1:42Speaker 3: I'll take it.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Absolutely you'll take that yeah uh we needed it you
- 1:46Speaker 2: know we needed some good luck because obviously i've made
- 1:49Speaker 2: nothing but awesome picks but come up on the losing
- 1:52Speaker 2: end yeah i mean you know obviously i didn't catch
- 1:56Speaker 2: a break yeah uh with those four blowout losses i've had.
- 1:59Speaker 5: You're just trying to give other people a chance to
- 2:02Speaker 5: get a lead before we really go on a run
- 2:04Speaker 5: We'll get it together.
- 2:05Speaker 2: I'm not worried about it. I tend to start sluggishly
- 2:09Speaker 2: every year. I don't know what your scouting report is,
- 2:11Speaker 2: but it was nice that Travis is like, hey, guys,
- 2:14Speaker 2: I got Monday night. Don't worry about it. Don't sweat it.
- 2:17Speaker 2: I'm going to take the Rams. They're going to win easily.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Wait till you see what we do to their quarterback.
- 2:23Speaker 2: So nice work. Thank you very much. On the flip side,
- 2:27Speaker 2: as we wind out, some congratulations. Of course, sorry to
- 2:31Speaker 2: Anders Hurst, who invested heavily in New York Giants in
- 2:34Speaker 2: his fantasy draft. and lost pretty much all of them
- 2:37Speaker 2: last night.
- 2:37Speaker 5: Literally at one point yes i did like a domino
- 2:41Speaker 5: literally jackson dart domino dart domino and then malik neighbors
- 2:44Speaker 5: went out for a few plays as well and that
- 2:46Speaker 5: was freaking me out i was like i go into
- 2:48Speaker 5: last night thinking i have a chance because i'm down
- 2:51Speaker 5: like 50 or something uh with just this game and
- 2:54Speaker 5: i have dart neighbors and scatagoo all ready to play
- 2:57Speaker 5: and dart gets hurt um Neighbors gets hurt, and then
- 3:02Speaker 5: Jameis Winston's throwing to him, and then they don't use
- 3:04Speaker 5: Scadaboo on the goal line. So all three of those
- 3:07Speaker 5: just blew up straight in my face.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Why did you invest so heavily in the new york
- 3:11Speaker 2: giants i don't know it's.
- 3:12Speaker 5: Just kind of that's the way the chips fell you
- 3:14Speaker 5: know it's like okay i liked all those players compared
- 3:18Speaker 5: to others at their positions at their respective times of
- 3:21Speaker 5: the draft so it just happened to be that way
- 3:23Speaker 5: it wasn't by design it just like that's just kind
- 3:26Speaker 5: of how it fell as the.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Draft was coming together you didn't cross your mind like
- 3:29Speaker 2: if dart gets hurt i lose all three of them
- 3:32Speaker 2: because that's what happened last.
- 3:33Speaker 5: Night yeah it's kind of unfortunate um i mean and
- 3:37Speaker 5: this is not just me just oh i know because
- 3:39Speaker 5: you know when mike benton and you were discussing a
- 3:41Speaker 5: trade yes and i didn't mean to interfere but i
- 3:43Speaker 5: guess i did.
- 3:44Speaker 2: I'm like mike you don't want a bunch of bears
- 3:46Speaker 2: i know they scored 59 points in the first week
- 3:48Speaker 2: true but williams falls and you lose three starters uh
- 3:52Speaker 2: and so that alone and then they're just all of
- 3:55Speaker 2: them so injury player i mean jackson dart I mean,
- 4:00Speaker 2: that was just, you know, number one, him jumping up
- 4:04Speaker 2: in the air probably saved him a blown out knee.
- 4:06Speaker 2: It did. Not that anyone since Johnny Manziel has advised
- 4:10Speaker 2: a quarterback to jump while you're throwing. But that jump
- 4:14Speaker 2: that he took lifted his leg off the ground. Right.
- 4:17Speaker 2: And it kept him from. having a stationary leg and
- 4:20Speaker 2: having it crush. So it looks like he's not going
- 4:23Speaker 2: to miss a lot of time. He tried to get
- 4:26Speaker 2: back in the game, supposedly. Yeah, but between him and Scadaboo,
- 4:30Speaker 2: who's just an idiot. Did you see his attempt at
- 4:34Speaker 2: a hurdle? It was like a... It was like a
- 4:36Speaker 2: French bulldog trying to jump the backyard fence. It's like,
- 4:40Speaker 2: what are you doing? You didn't even come close. So true, man.
- 4:43Speaker 2: You couldn't even have cleared a stack of nickels. Yeah.
- 4:46Speaker 2: And he's trying to jump over a safety. I mean,
- 4:49Speaker 2: he didn't even come close. And then neighbors, I hate
- 4:52Speaker 2: to say it. You don't want to say it. I
- 4:54Speaker 2: wouldn't say it about a Seahawk player in his second year.
- 4:57Speaker 2: But I'm going to say it about somebody that there's
- 4:59Speaker 2: no chances listening. Soft. It seems like it. I mean,
- 5:03Speaker 2: when that guy has to be convinced by his head
- 5:06Speaker 2: coach by getting tackled before the first game that it's OK,
- 5:08Speaker 2: you won't break into a thousand pieces. And then in
- 5:11Speaker 2: week number two, he's battling for a ball and misses
- 5:15Speaker 2: a quarter with a shoulder injury. And it looks innocuous.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Looks like nothing happened. Yes, literally. Like it wasn't a
- 5:20Speaker 2: hard hit or anything. Like he just tried to catch
- 5:22Speaker 2: the ball and he couldn't. And yeah, weird. That was
- 5:24Speaker 2: so weird. But yeah, no, it's I don't think he's
- 5:27Speaker 2: the toughest guy around, which is a topic that I'm
- 5:31Speaker 2: not going to get into in the first segment, but
- 5:33Speaker 2: I had a really interesting conversation about this group of
- 5:38Speaker 2: young players that have been drafted in the last couple
- 5:40Speaker 2: of years that maybe we can get into at some point.
- 5:42Speaker 2: But I don't trust that guy at all. I don't
- 5:45Speaker 2: trust any of the three. I really don't. I mean,
- 5:46Speaker 2: I told you when you filled in, why are people
- 5:50Speaker 2: drafting Jackson Dart over Matt Stafford? I mean, the guy
- 5:53Speaker 2: just plays recklessly. He already has... Like four or five concussions.
- 5:58Speaker 2: And he's a year and two games into his career.
- 6:01Speaker 2: And I don't think that was the problem last night.
- 6:04Speaker 2: It wasn't the problem last night. He wasn't playing recklessly.
- 6:06Speaker 2: It was just a freak play. Right. But. He will.
- 6:12Speaker 2: He's not done playing recklessly. And he'll be back in
- 6:16Speaker 2: a month, and I think he'll go right back on
- 6:18Speaker 2: the injury list in a month and a half. I
- 6:20Speaker 2: just don't think you can take that out of him.
- 6:23Speaker 2: Not yet, anyway. And so you've got to hope that
- 6:26Speaker 2: by the time he matures, which I think is going
- 6:29Speaker 2: to take about two or three years, that he's not
- 6:32Speaker 2: beat up so much that it affects his long-term longevity.
- 6:37Speaker 2: For sure.
- 6:37Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's... In the fantasy regard, it's like I'm
- 6:41Speaker 5: going to give the Mike McDonald line. I just got
- 6:44Speaker 5: to trust my depth. Next guy up. Let's get going.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Who is your backup? Jared Goff. Oh, you're– I'm fine.
- 6:49Speaker 5: Exactly.
- 6:50Speaker 2: It's a good backup to have.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 6:51Speaker 5: Yeah, it's why I did that because then I have the–
- 6:54Speaker 5: if Jackson Tarp for miraculous reasons stays healthy as a
- 6:57Speaker 5: high ceiling, he's going to run a lot. But then
- 7:00Speaker 5: if he doesn't, I got the nice high floor guy.
- 7:02Speaker 5: And Jared Goff, it's going to give you 16 to
- 7:04Speaker 5: 18 points every single game, like no matter what.
- 7:07Speaker 2: You know, I had a buddy of mine that has
- 7:09Speaker 2: Jared Goff, and he drafted him for this specific reason.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Like a righty-lefty platoon. He only starts them at home.
- 7:17Speaker 2: And I'm like, that is such a great idea.
- 7:19Speaker 3: It is, honestly.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Because he can't play on the road. It's true. But
- 7:21Speaker 2: he dominates at home. So he only plays them at home.
- 7:25Speaker 2: So if you could pick up somebody else, like I
- 7:27Speaker 2: think Jordan Love's still on our, you know, you play
- 7:31Speaker 2: golf at home and you get a Jordan Love to
- 7:33Speaker 2: play all the rest of the games and you might
- 7:35Speaker 2: have a perfectly fine quarterback solution.
- 7:38Speaker 5: I'll definitely look at that. But, yeah, we'll see how
- 7:40Speaker 5: long Dart is out for. But, yeah, neighbors being soft
- 7:44Speaker 5: is kind of the tough one for me.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Well, it looks like two to four weeks. That's what
- 7:49Speaker 2: I just heard this morning on Jackson Dart. I just
- 7:52Speaker 2: heard this morning that Jaden Daniels is more likely to
- 7:55Speaker 2: go on the IR, even though they might not do
- 7:58Speaker 2: surgery on Jaden Daniels. And so maybe he's not going
- 8:02Speaker 2: to be out for as long as we thought. And
- 8:04Speaker 2: Caleb Williams could be playing this week, despite all his
- 8:08Speaker 2: theatrics and leaving the field the other day. Man, that
- 8:13Speaker 2: was something, Caleb. He got us all worried if that
- 8:16Speaker 2: was your intention. Yeah. I mean, tweaked your hamstring. Yeah.
- 8:20Speaker 2: That was screaming in pain. One hell of a performance
- 8:23Speaker 2: right there.
- 8:25Speaker 3: Jeez.
- 8:25Speaker 2: I'm crying. I'm giving you the thumbs up as I'm
- 8:27Speaker 2: going off the field.
- 8:28Speaker 3: Right.
- 8:29Speaker 2: A towel over my head. I need the cart. I
- 8:31Speaker 2: can barely be taken off the field by three different coaches.
- 8:36Speaker 2: And it's, it sounds like he tweaked his hamstring. Sounds
- 8:39Speaker 2: like he has a hangnail. So anyway, that's another thing
- 8:42Speaker 2: that I'd like to get into a little bit later
- 8:44Speaker 2: on in the show, but, Here's what I want to
- 8:46Speaker 2: start with here this morning, because this is what crossed
- 8:49Speaker 2: my mind last night and watching Jackson Dart go down.
- 8:53Speaker 2: And again, I do want to preface this because I
- 8:56Speaker 2: know exactly what Anders, I've done enough shows with Anders,
- 8:59Speaker 2: I know exactly what his reaction would be. I am
- 9:02Speaker 2: not applying this to the Giants, the Commanders, or the Bears.
- 9:07Speaker 2: I'm not applying this. But the fact that we had
- 9:11Speaker 2: three guys go down with injury yesterday, Kyler Murray's already
- 9:14Speaker 2: been down and is coming back this week. Michael Penix
- 9:17Speaker 2: is finally healthy for a Falcons quarterback room that isn't healthy.
- 9:20Speaker 2: I mean, we're two weeks into the season. And we
- 9:26Speaker 2: are still, what, 10 weeks? I was going to look
- 9:29Speaker 2: this up. 10 weeks from the NFL trading deadline? Sam
- 9:34Speaker 2: Darnold is supposed to come back on Wednesday. And when
- 9:38Speaker 2: Sam Darnold's ready, this is just the way you do
- 9:41Speaker 2: things in football and sports. Like he's going to start
- 9:45Speaker 2: whenever he's ready. He's going to start. It doesn't matter
- 9:48Speaker 2: how well Drew Locke has played in the last couple
- 9:50Speaker 2: of weeks because he's your starter and he's a world champion. Now,
- 9:55Speaker 2: I don't think that the Seahawks should be in any
- 9:57Speaker 2: rush the way that Drew Locke has played the last
- 10:00Speaker 2: couple of weeks. That said, when Sam Darnold's ready to go,
- 10:04Speaker 2: Sam Darnold's ready to go. And I'm actually a little
- 10:07Speaker 2: worried they're going to split teams snaps this week and
- 10:10Speaker 2: neither of them are going to be as prepared as
- 10:12Speaker 2: they could be um and so i'm not too worried
- 10:16Speaker 2: about it because of the opponent that you're facing but
- 10:19Speaker 2: it sounds like sam's you know on the verge of
- 10:23Speaker 2: coming back and ready to play so there's a chance
- 10:25Speaker 2: there's a chance drew lock started his last game with
- 10:29Speaker 2: the seattle seahawks not just this season ever he has
- 10:34Speaker 2: a free agent at the end of the year And
- 10:36Speaker 2: over the course of the last two games, as Hugh
- 10:38Speaker 2: Millen told us yesterday and Greg Bell told us yesterday
- 10:42Speaker 2: and as we discussed ourselves yesterday, Drew Locke probably made
- 10:46Speaker 2: himself millions of dollars in the last couple of weeks.
- 10:50Speaker 2: I said last week that this is Drew Locke's opportunity
- 10:53Speaker 2: and maybe his last one to show the National Football
- 10:56Speaker 2: League I'm worth investing starting quarterback money in. And so
- 11:02Speaker 2: over the course of the last couple of weeks, he's
- 11:04Speaker 2: been sensational. A 113 quarterback rating, a 139 quarterback rating.
- 11:08Speaker 2: I mean, quarterback rating-wise, I think he had the best
- 11:11Speaker 2: week of anyone in the National Football League this past week.
- 11:14Speaker 2: So this crossed my mind. Like, do you trade Drew Locke?
- 11:23Speaker 2: He's going to be a free agent at the end
- 11:24Speaker 2: of the year. He makes only $ 2. 5 million, so he
- 11:28Speaker 2: fits under anybody's cap out there. NFL teams that bring
- 11:34Speaker 2: him in can use him this season. And then if
- 11:39Speaker 2: it works out well, they can work on a contract
- 11:42Speaker 2: extension or they can franchise tag him. So that's the
- 11:46Speaker 2: difference between the NFL and a rental player in Major
- 11:49Speaker 2: League Baseball. If you love him, you can keep him
- 11:52Speaker 2: for a year and you got to pay him a
- 11:53Speaker 2: hefty salary, but not as hefty as maybe a free
- 11:58Speaker 2: agent salary would be for him.
- 12:00Speaker 3: Right.
- 12:02Speaker 2: And so if you're John Schneider and you don't do
- 12:05Speaker 2: it now, but if you get, because you got to
- 12:09Speaker 2: make sure Sam Darnold's healthy, number one, because if he
- 12:12Speaker 2: goes down, you're going to want Drew Locke. But you
- 12:17Speaker 2: have 10 weeks and you might have 10 weeks with
- 12:21Speaker 2: Drew Locke just sitting on the sidelines wearing a ball
- 12:23Speaker 2: cap with two games and his little time capsule that
- 12:28Speaker 2: he has left The rest of the National Football League,
- 12:31Speaker 2: here's the last impression I gave you of my abilities.
- 12:35Speaker 2: And yeah, Caleb Williams is going to be back soon,
- 12:38Speaker 2: it sounds like. And Jaden Daniels plays on a bad team,
- 12:41Speaker 2: and yet he's going to be back. And Jackson Dart,
- 12:44Speaker 2: it looks like, avoided major injury last night. But that
- 12:47Speaker 2: doesn't mean that somebody else who's built to win right now,
- 12:51Speaker 2: between now and trade deadline time, doesn't lose their starting
- 12:56Speaker 2: quarterback and can't help but think, Man, that Drew Lockbrook's
- 13:00Speaker 2: pretty good for the Seattle Seahawks. And I do wonder if,
- 13:05Speaker 2: I mean, his trade value's never been higher. If John
- 13:08Speaker 2: Schneider right now, I mean, you might get a first-round pick.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Is that his value, you think? It wouldn't have been
- 13:17Speaker 2: coming into the season. No, no. But at $ 2. 5 million
- 13:22Speaker 2: that can step in for a starting quarterback on a
- 13:26Speaker 2: team that thinks they can win a championship and doesn't
- 13:28Speaker 2: want to abandon that, maybe they're on the back end
- 13:31Speaker 2: of the window. I mean, forgive me for saying this,
- 13:34Speaker 2: Jared Goff. Yeah. The Detroit Lions know they're on the
- 13:37Speaker 2: back end of their championship window that they've put together. 100%.
- 13:41Speaker 2: They lose Jared Goff. I mean, are they going to
- 13:43Speaker 2: trust next guy up, or are they going to say, hey,
- 13:46Speaker 2: that one guy in Seattle was 120 quarterback rating for
- 13:50Speaker 2: back-to-back weeks? You know, I could go through some others.
- 13:56Speaker 2: God forbid that they actually do get injured. But there
- 13:59Speaker 2: are a lot of different things. Minnesota, the way they're
- 14:01Speaker 2: playing defense right now. If Kyler Murray gets concussed again,
- 14:05Speaker 2: would the Vikings not be interested in– Drew Locke over
- 14:09Speaker 2: Carson Wentz and J.J. McCarthy? And then if you could
- 14:13Speaker 2: franchise tag hold them, that gives you a year and
- 14:16Speaker 2: a half to figure out a long-term deal potentially. Maybe
- 14:20Speaker 2: I'm overshooting it with a first-round pick, but think about
- 14:24Speaker 2: a starting quarterback playing good football at $ 2. 5 million that
- 14:30Speaker 2: you can theoretically hold rights over for the next two
- 14:35Speaker 2: seasons if you wanted to. Or you could spend the
- 14:38Speaker 2: time working out a contract extension. I wonder, it just
- 14:44Speaker 2: crossed my mind last night, because we haven't seen the
- 14:46Speaker 2: last quarterback injury. No, we have not. What we got
- 14:50Speaker 2: out of Drew Locke, fantastic. If Sam Darnold gets back
- 14:54Speaker 2: and shows I'm perfectly healthy and I'm ready to go,
- 14:58Speaker 2: that if 10 weeks from now you're not sitting there thinking,
- 15:01Speaker 2: you know what, we'll sign Jake Browning. He will be
- 15:05Speaker 2: our backup. We're going with Sam Darnold. We're going to
- 15:09Speaker 2: trust that nothing happens to him down the stretch. And
- 15:13Speaker 2: we have a chance to maybe get a pretty high
- 15:15Speaker 2: draft pick. Maybe it's not a first-rounder. Maybe that's getting
- 15:17Speaker 2: carried away. But we have a chance to get a
- 15:20Speaker 2: pretty high draft pick for a guy that we're going
- 15:23Speaker 2: to lose in a couple of months. And the only
- 15:26Speaker 2: thing he's doing for us is sitting on the bench
- 15:29Speaker 2: and holding a clipboard. Yeah, I mean, I'm as high
- 15:31Speaker 2: on Drew Locke as almost anyone. And, you know.
- 15:35Speaker 5: I've always said he's one of the best backups in
- 15:38Speaker 5: the NFL, but there's so many factors here. Number one is,
- 15:42Speaker 5: I think it should be solely over anything else, obviously,
- 15:46Speaker 5: is how... much confidence do you have in sam donald's
- 15:50Speaker 5: recovery is it one of those things where he comes
- 15:53Speaker 5: back but it could linger and you never know if
- 15:56Speaker 5: it can.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Well that's what i'm saying i said that you have
- 15:59Speaker 2: to make sure he's okay i said that that was
- 16:01Speaker 2: part of my presentation right and you have 10 weeks
- 16:03Speaker 2: to make sure that he's okay.
- 16:04Speaker 5: Yeah exactly and but the other thing is how much
- 16:07Speaker 5: you would get for him right if you have to
- 16:09Speaker 5: kind of test the waters obviously gms do this all
- 16:12Speaker 5: the time like hey this guy's available um let me
- 16:15Speaker 5: offer that it's what what do you got uh this
- 16:18Speaker 5: whatever uh and then the other thing is well it's
- 16:20Speaker 5: higher right now.
- 16:21Speaker 2: Than it was two weeks ago i'll tell you that much.
- 16:23Speaker 5: Yeah just from a opposing team gm standpoint how much
- 16:28Speaker 5: are you how much value are you going to put
- 16:30Speaker 5: in a two-week stretch Because obviously he's been great for the.
- 16:34Speaker 2: Past two weeks. As Hugh Millen pointed out on Friday,
- 16:37Speaker 2: Malik Willis got an NFL contract on 36 passes.
- 16:43Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 16:43Speaker 2: So he threw more than 36 passes the last two weeks.
- 16:48Speaker 2: I mean, the need for quarterbacks, especially when yours goes down,
- 16:52Speaker 2: I mean, it's going to jack up that price immediately. Yeah.
- 16:57Speaker 2: So the trade deadline is November 10th. I mean, I'm
- 17:00Speaker 2: not doing anything today. But if the last impression that
- 17:04Speaker 2: drew locks, given the rest of the national football league
- 17:07Speaker 2: are those two games, Sam Darnold's healthy. Seahawks are rolling.
- 17:12Speaker 2: You still can, you could even trade, like, let's say
- 17:15Speaker 2: if you trade them to Minnesota and then you got
- 17:18Speaker 2: Carson Wentz back in the deal so that you do
- 17:20Speaker 2: have another veteran who's been active this season, that sort
- 17:24Speaker 2: of thing. You, you've got that at your disposal. Uh,
- 17:28Speaker 2: I just it sounds like something John Schneider might try.
- 17:33Speaker 2: And so you've got time to assess it. But if
- 17:36Speaker 2: Sam Darnold plays until November 10th and you're sitting there
- 17:39Speaker 2: with one of the best records in the National Football
- 17:41Speaker 2: League and a backup quarterback that might have, let's say,
- 17:44Speaker 2: maybe I'm getting over carried away. Second round pick value.
- 17:49Speaker 2: And you know that he is only there in case
- 17:52Speaker 2: of emergency. Does John Schneier pull the trigger on some
- 17:56Speaker 2: trade like that while the value is its highest? Because
- 18:01Speaker 2: he's gone. He is leaving you. And you're not going
- 18:04Speaker 2: to franchise tag him because you've got to pay Sam. Yeah,
- 18:07Speaker 2: you do.
- 18:08Speaker 5: And Sam's your starter. It's not like you're having any
- 18:10Speaker 5: sort of competition here. So that I think I think
- 18:13Speaker 5: John and I would look into it.
- 18:14Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 18:15Speaker 5: The biggest thing for me, this might sound like an
- 18:17Speaker 5: obvious statement, but sometimes it can get overblown, especially when
- 18:21Speaker 5: you talk about trades is like you want to trade
- 18:24Speaker 5: someone when the value that you're returning, that you're getting
- 18:27Speaker 5: back is greater than the value that they are to
- 18:30Speaker 5: your organization.
- 18:31Speaker 3: Right.
- 18:32Speaker 2: So.
- 18:33Speaker 5: At some point there's, there's, there's a crossover, right? If
- 18:35Speaker 5: someone offers a six round pick, yeah, I think it's
- 18:38Speaker 5: probably better to have drew lock.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Sure.
- 18:41Speaker 5: On this team as a, as a capable backup, just
- 18:43Speaker 5: in case Sam don't get hurt again. But if you,
- 18:45Speaker 5: if you're talking to two or even three range. I
- 18:48Speaker 5: think that gives you more in return than he's valued
- 18:51Speaker 5: to the Seahawks.
- 18:52Speaker 2: That's my point. And I don't know how high that
- 18:54Speaker 2: would get, how desperate some team would become. I don't either.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Like I said, I just threw those three out, throw
- 19:01Speaker 2: young quarterbacks out as examples because they're injured right now.
- 19:05Speaker 2: I don't think that would be a fit because I
- 19:08Speaker 2: think they still are invested in those guys long term.
- 19:11Speaker 2: Anybody that makes that kind of trade is thinking, not
- 19:14Speaker 2: only do we want Drew Locke now, but we want
- 19:16Speaker 2: him going forward. Yeah. as well and so so that's
- 19:21Speaker 2: just it i mean his value has never been higher
- 19:24Speaker 2: than it is at this very moment and if you
- 19:30Speaker 2: and if a team gets desperate enough that feels like
- 19:33Speaker 2: oh man we've got the rest of the roster the
- 19:36Speaker 2: minnesota vikings i think we're playing better defense than anyone
- 19:40Speaker 2: including them yeah and You know, with Brian Flores as
- 19:44Speaker 2: their defensive coordinator, uh then you wonder if that's not
- 19:49Speaker 2: an option if that is going to be drew lock's
- 19:53Speaker 2: future value to this organization and if john schneider would
- 19:56Speaker 2: it be able to resist you know that temptation do
- 20:00Speaker 2: i hold on to him in case something happens to
- 20:02Speaker 2: sam after november 10th or do i move him Because
- 20:08Speaker 2: I never dreamed that I would be able to get
- 20:11Speaker 2: a second round pick for Drew Locke when the season began.
- 20:14Speaker 2: I think he absolutely would entertain that. Yeah. Something to
- 20:17Speaker 2: kick around. I'll ask Greg Bell about it at 7.05.
- 20:20Speaker 2: Let's find out what else is on tap for the show.

- 20:40Speaker 2: Rams 28, Giants 6 last night. We'll play Factor Fiction,
- 20:43Speaker 2: probably dominated again, even though it is my pick today.
- 20:48Speaker 2: uh so pump the brakes on that statement you gotta
- 20:51Speaker 2: turn it around eventually i know i will i will
- 20:53Speaker 2: don't worry don't worry travis i know you're worried about
- 20:55Speaker 2: it at home he's very worried talking about it with
- 20:57Speaker 2: the wife the kids yeah uh factor fiction today at
- 21:02Speaker 2: 7 35 it'll be my selection aaron donald made his
- 21:04Speaker 2: return to the football field last night and uh certainly
- 21:08Speaker 2: didn't look like the one man wrecking crew that he's
- 21:11Speaker 2: been throughout his nfl career but uh he didn't look
- 21:13Speaker 2: slow either um he looked just fine he had three
- 21:16Speaker 2: tackles uh one tackle for loss and i swear the
- 21:19Speaker 2: guy doesn't age he still looks so young yeah it
- 21:21Speaker 2: does uh and his kids are going to be beasts
- 21:23Speaker 2: unfair yeah those uh those kids of his look like
- 21:26Speaker 2: they got futures um jackson dart was hurt uh looks
- 21:30Speaker 2: like he's going to be out two to four weeks
- 21:31Speaker 2: with a sprained mcl jayden daniels with a dislocated elbow
- 21:36Speaker 2: might be out longer caleb williams could play this week
- 21:39Speaker 2: against the philadelphia eagles Thursday night football, Michael Penix Jr.
- 21:43Speaker 2: is going to start for the Atlanta Falcons against the
- 21:46Speaker 2: Green Bay Packers. That'll be the next NFL game that
- 21:49Speaker 2: we'll watch. Meanwhile, as I mentioned, a lot of these
- 21:51Speaker 2: things I've already mentioned. Sam Darnold to return to practice Wednesday.
- 21:55Speaker 2: And I would assume that means they're planning on him starting.
- 21:59Speaker 2: Greg Bell will answer those questions today at 7.05. Seahawks
- 22:03Speaker 2: at Commanders this week. Gene Steratore is going to join
- 22:06Speaker 2: us today at 8 o'clock to answer all of our
- 22:09Speaker 2: questions about stupid officials. College football, Minnesota at UW as
- 22:14Speaker 2: the Dogs start Big Ten play this week. Rick Neuheisel
- 22:18Speaker 2: joins us at 9 o'clock. Texas at Tennessee, Oregon at USC,
- 22:22Speaker 2: Ole Miss at Florida. This is the best week thus
- 22:26Speaker 2: far of the college football season. Plenty of big games,
- 22:29Speaker 2: and it will only ramp up, I think. Sounders and
- 22:32Speaker 2: Real Salt Lake will play Wednesday at 6.30 right here
- 22:35Speaker 2: in Seattle. And the Mariners are home to the Astros
- 22:39Speaker 2: tonight at 6.40 with the ever so slightest chances still
- 22:43Speaker 2: alive of making the playoffs, even though they're 0.1%. Logan
- 22:48Speaker 2: Gilbert versus Christian Javier is the pitching matchup. First pitch
- 22:51Speaker 2: will be thrown at 640. Coming up next, though, we
- 22:55Speaker 2: talk about the Seahawks. We had a Monday morning quarterback
- 22:58Speaker 2: session with Greg and with Hugh and amongst ourselves. But
- 23:02Speaker 2: there are a few things left over. We empty the notebook.
- 23:05Speaker 2: A brand new feature I want to introduce this season
- 23:08Speaker 2: next on Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Now back to Chuck in the Morning.
- 23:15Speaker 2: Brought to you by Tulatip Resort Casino. When all you
- 23:18Speaker 2: want is everything. Everythingtulatip.com. On Sports Radio 93.3. KJR FM.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Why didn't you write me? Why? It wasn't over for me.
- 23:23Speaker 2: I waited for you for seven years.
- 23:24Speaker 3: And now it's too late.
- 23:36Speaker 2: I wrote you 365 letters. I wrote you every.
- 23:51Speaker 3: Day for years.
- 23:59Speaker 2: You wrote me?
- 24:00Speaker 3: Yes. It wasn't over.
- 24:05Speaker 2: It still isn't over.
- 24:06Speaker 4: Oh, yes.
- 24:06Speaker 3: It still isn't over. It's perfect, actually.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Then they start making out. Do they start making out
- 24:11Speaker 2: at that point? I wish I looked like Ryan Gosling.
- 24:16Speaker 2: What do you want? Why are we playing a clip
- 24:22Speaker 2: from the sappy, ridiculous, romantic movie, The Notebook?
- 24:30Speaker 5: It's probably the sappiest movie of all time. It is
- 24:33Speaker 5: the sappiest.
- 24:34Speaker 2: And I just love how conflicted the girl was over, like,
- 24:39Speaker 2: her amazing options she had in mind. Yeah, right? Like, oh,
- 24:42Speaker 2: this is terrible. Yeah, it's like you could either be
- 24:44Speaker 2: with the really handsome, ridiculously rich guy, or the really handsome,
- 24:49Speaker 2: you know, down-to-earth and wants-to-give-you-everything guy. You don't really have
- 24:57Speaker 2: bad options here, Rachel. I don't know why you're crying
- 25:00Speaker 2: every episode. It's true. What do I do? It's like...
- 25:07Speaker 2: It's not like you're deciding between that and softy. Yeah. Okay.
- 25:12Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:15Speaker 5: My diamond shoes are too tight. My wallet won't fit
- 25:17Speaker 5: my hundreds. It's terrible.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Terrible. Anyway, why are we playing a clip from the notebook?
- 25:26Speaker 2: Because it is time to empty the notebook. It struck
- 25:29Speaker 2: me this football season. Man, I write all these notes
- 25:33Speaker 2: for our Monday shows, Monday morning quarterback.
- 25:37Speaker 3: Right.
- 25:38Speaker 2: And we don't get to all of them all the time.
- 25:40Speaker 2: So why not empty the notebook? Right. Right. I know
- 25:44Speaker 2: Hugh doesn't get to all the things that he wants
- 25:46Speaker 2: to talk about. But then again, this is not Hugh
- 25:48Speaker 2: in the morning. This is Chuck in the morning. So
- 25:51Speaker 2: just a few things from the Seahawks went over the
- 25:54Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals on Sunday that we didn't end up bringing
- 25:57Speaker 2: up or at least didn't bring up all the angles
- 26:00Speaker 2: to these things during the course of yesterday's show. So
- 26:04Speaker 2: I'm just I just circled the things that just did
- 26:06Speaker 2: not make it to the airwaves. Here's the first one.
- 26:09Speaker 2: Didn't the end zones look really great? You like them? Yeah. Oh,
- 26:14Speaker 2: I love them. Yeah, it's the only thing they did right.
- 26:17Speaker 2: You don't like the jerseys? No, I don't like the
- 26:20Speaker 2: poo splattered jerseys. I didn't like when Oregon did it.
- 26:23Speaker 2: I don't like when Arizona. It just looks like they're dirty. Yeah.
- 26:27Speaker 2: But sounds like the Seahawks took over the crowd. Yeah,
- 26:30Speaker 2: they did. At the stadium. So the fans didn't exactly
- 26:34Speaker 2: do their job. And they blame that on the front
- 26:37Speaker 2: office for not doing their job. And so if Arizona
- 26:42Speaker 2: got one thing right on Sunday, man, those end zones
- 26:47Speaker 2: look beautiful.
- 26:47Speaker 5: Yeah, the end zones look great. I actually like the
- 26:50Speaker 5: color scheme of the jerseys too, but you're right. The
- 26:53Speaker 5: splatter nature of it is just not.
- 26:55Speaker 2: Just keep the splatter off. If you want to go
- 26:56Speaker 2: like a cream instead of a white. Would be perfect.
- 26:59Speaker 2: I mean, the Mariners cream Sundays were great, and they
- 27:02Speaker 2: decided to abandon them to keep their two other gaudy.
- 27:05Speaker 1: Ugly ass uniforms yeah the teal and the blue so
- 27:11Speaker 1: yeah there's nothing wrong with cream I like a little
- 27:13Speaker 1: cream get on top cream don't.
- 27:16Speaker 2: You stop that's a Prince song alright now next one
- 27:22Speaker 2: we didn't spend a lot of time on the Judarian
- 27:24Speaker 2: Price fumble I mean we spent some time on his
- 27:28Speaker 2: performance and we spent some time on his injury we
- 27:30Speaker 2: didn't talk about the fumble And I think for good reason.
- 27:33Speaker 2: I mean, it was completely taken out of his hands,
- 27:37Speaker 2: stripped from his hands. I don't think it's anything to
- 27:39Speaker 2: worry about. I don't think that Jadarian Price has a
- 27:42Speaker 2: fumble issue because Zayven Collins literally ripped a football with
- 27:47Speaker 2: both hands out of his arms while he was being
- 27:49Speaker 2: held up by other defensive players. I would say this, though.
- 27:52Speaker 2: It did strike me of, do we know if Jadarian
- 27:55Speaker 2: Price has a fumble issue? I mean, somebody that has
- 27:59Speaker 2: played so little football... At the collegiate level. Right. And again,
- 28:03Speaker 2: Terrell Davis played less than Jadarian Price and was a
- 28:07Speaker 2: Hall of Famer and pretty much was the piece the
- 28:11Speaker 2: Denver Broncos needed to win two Super Bowls. So it
- 28:14Speaker 2: doesn't define you just because you were a backup running
- 28:18Speaker 2: back in college, but it does leave you with questions.
- 28:21Speaker 2: We have questions about his durability, which we've discussed. We
- 28:24Speaker 2: have questions about how often he can be used during
- 28:27Speaker 2: the course of the game because we've never seen him
- 28:29Speaker 2: do it, not against... you know, higher level competition. And
- 28:33Speaker 2: one thing we also don't know because he just didn't
- 28:36Speaker 2: get the ball enough is when he gets to the
- 28:38Speaker 2: fourth quarter, if he is getting those 15 to 20
- 28:41Speaker 2: carries against linebackers and cornerbacks and safeties that are trying
- 28:46Speaker 2: to rip the ball out of his arms, do we
- 28:48Speaker 2: know if he's any good at it? Yeah.
- 28:50Speaker 5: It's similar to like when you talk about a baseball
- 28:52Speaker 5: pitcher and you're drafting them and they haven't pitched more
- 28:54Speaker 5: than a certain amount of innings and Do we know
- 28:56Speaker 5: that by the end of the season, they don't get tired?
- 28:58Speaker 5: Do we know that they have this elbow issues here
- 29:04Speaker 5: and there? It honestly is a big question. But I
- 29:06Speaker 5: think that also may be a reason why the Seahawks
- 29:10Speaker 5: drafted him because he doesn't have the wear and tear
- 29:12Speaker 5: on the tires. He can do more of that at
- 29:14Speaker 5: the NFL level. So they're kind of ramping him up
- 29:17Speaker 5: a little bit.
- 29:17Speaker 2: So I don't know.
- 29:18Speaker 5: There's both a good and a take or a given
- 29:20Speaker 5: a take, I should say. There's just not the volume
- 29:21Speaker 5: to have this ample size to really kind of draw
- 29:23Speaker 5: a conclusion.
- 29:24Speaker 2: JSN, as we empty the notebook, standing in the rain,
- 29:28Speaker 2: torn between lovers, feeling like a fool, crying pretty much every,
- 29:34Speaker 2: every scene.
- 29:35Speaker 3: We obviously.
- 29:40Speaker 2: Detailed the greatness of JSN. Started the show with it.
- 29:43Speaker 2: Spent a lot of time. Hugh dedicated like a segment
- 29:46Speaker 2: and a half to the greatness of JSN with us.
- 29:50Speaker 2: It was a monstrous part of the story. Nine catches,
- 29:53Speaker 2: 155 yards, and three touchdowns. But it's not just the catches, touchdowns,
- 29:59Speaker 2: and yards. Like, I wrote down at one point, he
- 30:01Speaker 2: also created a plus 16 PI because the Cardinals were
- 30:05Speaker 2: so frustrated that we can't cover him. And then he
- 30:09Speaker 2: had a near miraculous catch, which he had no business catching.
- 30:13Speaker 2: And they actually ruled it a catch at first and
- 30:15Speaker 2: then rightly overturned it. But I mean, he almost had
- 30:19Speaker 2: that highlight freakish play on top of everything else. I mean,
- 30:25Speaker 2: Great players just impact so much more than the stats
- 30:28Speaker 2: that they end up putting up. And his stats are otherworldly.
- 30:33Speaker 2: I mean, it is just really hard to define what
- 30:36Speaker 2: a great player we are watching, what we have in
- 30:39Speaker 2: number 11.
- 30:40Speaker 5: It's funny that we're talking about it in the context
- 30:42Speaker 5: of choosing between two guys in the rain and crying
- 30:45Speaker 5: every scene. Because I think the Seahawks, in being Rachel McAdams...
- 30:51Speaker 5: chose the correct guy in JSN over DK Metcalf compared to.
- 30:55Speaker 2: What he's doing in Pittsburgh.
- 30:57Speaker 5: Because it's getting a rough watch, and it's like, man,
- 31:01Speaker 5: this is perfect. I guess JSN's the Ryan Gosling of
- 31:05Speaker 5: this story. But yeah, he's absolutely special.
- 31:08Speaker 2: What do you want? what do you want you want
- 31:12Speaker 2: ripped abs and drops yeah and temperamental penalties yeah or
- 31:18Speaker 2: do you want the greatest receiver of all time if
- 31:20Speaker 2: that's what you want go with him i'm standing right
- 31:26Speaker 2: here in the ring yeah yeah aaron rogers would love
- 31:30Speaker 2: to have me he would nice three points there aaron
- 31:36Speaker 2: Against the Patriots on Sunday. Emmanuel Wilson did a tremendous
- 31:40Speaker 2: job running out the clock. I did bring that up,
- 31:42Speaker 2: and we discussed it a little bit with Hugh. But
- 31:48Speaker 2: it was a tired Cardinal defense at that point. I'm
- 31:51Speaker 2: not taking anything away from him. That's exactly what you
- 31:54Speaker 2: wanted in the fourth quarter. That's exactly the way Mike
- 31:57Speaker 2: McDonald would have scripted it. We're up comfortably enough. I
- 32:00Speaker 2: can take Jadarian Price out of the game, whether he's
- 32:02Speaker 2: healthy or not.
- 32:03Speaker 4: Right.
- 32:05Speaker 2: I put my RB2 in there, and he just gets
- 32:08Speaker 2: me four yards in a cloud of dust every time
- 32:11Speaker 2: he touches the football. It was fantastic from Emmanuel Wilson.
- 32:17Speaker 2: Did it in any way make you wonder about the
- 32:20Speaker 2: hierarchy in the backfield, though?
- 32:22Speaker 3: Uh, no.
- 32:24Speaker 5: It's very similar to the Drew Locke situation, to be
- 32:26Speaker 5: completely honest. He comes in, does his job, plays really,
- 32:29Speaker 5: really well, but I'm not having any questions about who's
- 32:32Speaker 5: a starter here. I realize that it's tough to, like
- 32:36Speaker 5: we just talked about with Price, you can't really draw
- 32:38Speaker 5: any conclusions yet. He's had flashes of greatness. They haven't
- 32:41Speaker 5: really used him in every situation, so... I like the
- 32:45Speaker 5: kind of committee that they have right now. And that
- 32:47Speaker 5: still doesn't even include Zach Charbonnet. But I think Emmanuel
- 32:50Speaker 5: Wilson did absolutely wonderful in, like you said, a banged
- 32:55Speaker 5: up Cardinals defense in the second half of a game
- 32:59Speaker 5: that was already kind of won at that point. So
- 33:02Speaker 5: I have no questions about where the hierarchy is. Yeah,
- 33:06Speaker 5: I don't either, but it was nice to see.
- 33:08Speaker 2: I mean, I am a much better, bigger believer than
- 33:11Speaker 2: Emmanuel Wilson now than I was. Good point. Before yesterday's game,
- 33:15Speaker 2: I wasn't sure what he could contribute, and we saw
- 33:18Speaker 2: him contribute that for sure as he just ran out
- 33:22Speaker 2: the clock on a game that was out of control.
- 33:24Speaker 2: And then just quickly, finally, I mean, this defense looks phenomenal,
- 33:28Speaker 2: like A-plus so far. And I would argue... that their
- 33:32Speaker 2: best player on defense played three plays or four or
- 33:36Speaker 2: five or however many. He's played three plays all season. Yeah.
- 33:40Speaker 2: And they still look, they might even look better. And
- 33:42Speaker 2: he's not in game shape and he's, and yet he has,
- 33:48Speaker 2: Mike McDonald hasn't even used his best weapon yet.
- 33:51Speaker 5: I would argue that's it's, it's insane when you think
- 33:53Speaker 5: about it in that way. And another starter to entire Cotta,
- 33:56Speaker 5: not just Nick, even worry another guy that you expected
- 33:59Speaker 5: to be a big contributor entire Cotta as well. So
- 34:01Speaker 5: this choose McDonald, Rachel, that's the choice to make a
- 34:06Speaker 5: hundred percent.
- 34:06Speaker 2: That's the winner right there. Yeah. Don't waste any more tears.
- 34:11Speaker 2: Just choose the coach. He's the real special one. All right,
- 34:15Speaker 2: coming up next. Hey, look, there are a few major
- 34:19Speaker 2: injuries in the National Football League this weekend, but none
- 34:23Speaker 2: more serious than mine. That's right. We'll update you on
- 34:27Speaker 2: the injury I suffered last night. Oh, no. Sports Radio
- 34:29Speaker 2: 93.3 KJR FM. First of all, I'd like to thank
- 34:45Speaker 2: both Travis and Andrew not to make a big deal
- 34:47Speaker 2: out of this. I know you've been thinking this entire
- 34:50Speaker 2: morning like, oh, my gosh, that poor guy.
- 34:53Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 34:54Speaker 2: Yeah, how is he gutting this out?
- 34:56Speaker 5: Yeah, we're trying to not have the topic go to
- 34:58Speaker 5: this conversation.
- 34:59Speaker 3: Right.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if you're doing that to save
- 35:03Speaker 2: me or if you're pitying me or what. But, I mean,
- 35:06Speaker 2: it's very clear to everybody that can see me, including
- 35:08Speaker 2: on YouTube. I suffered a serious major injury last night. Uh-oh.
- 35:13Speaker 2: As you can see. Everybody can see that? Yes, I'm squinting.
- 35:18Speaker 2: What do you mean squinting? I practically have a stump
- 35:21Speaker 2: for an arm now.
- 35:22Speaker 5: Look at that.
- 35:26Speaker 2: I burned all three of these fingers on Pop-Tart icing.
- 35:33Speaker 2: No way. Seriously?
- 35:35Speaker 3: No way.
- 35:38Speaker 2: And they're not really Pop-Tarts because I can't have gluten
- 35:41Speaker 2: in my house. I got a celiac in my house,
- 35:43Speaker 2: so they're like these cat's. Breakfast pastries thing, and I
- 35:47Speaker 2: made one yesterday for my coffee, for my afternoon coffee
- 35:50Speaker 2: when I wake up. Put it in the toaster, and
- 35:54Speaker 2: you know Pop-Tarts. You don't have to put them in
- 35:56Speaker 2: the toaster, but they're better in the toaster. Yeah, they are.
- 35:59Speaker 5: Way better.
- 35:59Speaker 2: So I put them in there, but the icing that
- 36:03Speaker 2: they use I think might be different than a normal Pop-Tart. Yeah.
- 36:07Speaker 2: And it was– like smoking in the toaster because the
- 36:11Speaker 2: icing had leaned up against the side. Yeah. So it
- 36:14Speaker 2: was smoking, and I had to stop it because you
- 36:16Speaker 2: do not want the alarm to go off in my
- 36:19Speaker 2: place because it is horrifying. And I got two little
- 36:23Speaker 2: dogs that were rescues, and they can't handle it. So I'm, like, panicking,
- 36:29Speaker 2: trying to get the damn Pop-Tart out of the toaster,
- 36:32Speaker 2: and I just grab it, icing first.
- 36:35Speaker 4: Oof.
- 36:35Speaker 2: And it, like, clung to my fingers. Like, I've never
- 36:39Speaker 2: seen sugar do that. It, like, wrapped around my thumb
- 36:43Speaker 2: and fingers. And, look, I got a high threshold for pain,
- 36:46Speaker 2: so I wasn't, like, in a lot of pain. But
- 36:48Speaker 2: it was more painful than when I separated my shoulder. Whoa.
- 36:51Speaker 2: Third-degree separation of my shoulder was the icing Pop-Tart injury
- 36:56Speaker 2: that I suffered last night. And now, look at me.
- 37:00Speaker 2: I don't even know if supermodels will date me anymore. Yeah, seriously. Yeah,
- 37:03Speaker 2: look at that. What are we doing? I'm marred now.
- 37:05Speaker 2: Look at that. These two are red. Are you going
- 37:07Speaker 2: to sue the Pop-Tart company? And this one, that's a blister. Yeah,
- 37:10Speaker 2: it is. That's what's called a blister, Sanders.
- 37:12Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 37:13Speaker 2: Practically thumbless this morning thanks to a pastry. Thank God
- 37:19Speaker 2: you're not left-handed. You're right. That's true. I could get
- 37:23Speaker 2: by without this arm. Yeah, you could. You could. If
- 37:25Speaker 2: I have to. Yeah. Are you going to sue the
- 37:27Speaker 2: Pop-Tart company? I don't know. Cross my mind.
- 37:30Speaker 3: Emotional distress.
- 37:31Speaker 2: Cross my mind. You know, some people might think I'm overreacting,
- 37:36Speaker 2: but at least I didn't hop on a cart, put
- 37:38Speaker 2: a towel over my head, cry in front of the public,
- 37:43Speaker 2: and then be wheeled off and... Give all of my
- 37:46Speaker 2: fans inside my house a wave to make sure that
- 37:49Speaker 2: they knew that I wasn't going to die.
- 37:50Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 37:51Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. And then find out I just had a
- 37:53Speaker 2: hamstring tweak. Tweak hamstring. I mean, I got more injured
- 37:56Speaker 2: than Caleb Williams. And look at the holy show he
- 38:00Speaker 2: put on. Exactly, yeah.
- 38:02Speaker 5: You're not Mr. Dramatic over here. No, you're not searching
- 38:06Speaker 5: for more.
- 38:07Speaker 2: That little presentation that I just gave, obviously tongue-in-cheek and
- 38:11Speaker 2: completely over the top, still paled in comparison to the
- 38:15Speaker 2: show Caleb Williams put on on Sunday.
- 38:17Speaker 5: Well, and when he fell and he was holding his leg...
- 38:20Speaker 5: Even during the play, it's like he kind of goes
- 38:23Speaker 5: down like, I'm a soccer player.
- 38:25Speaker 2: Like a soccer player. He's like, oh. And then he's
- 38:28Speaker 2: like screaming in pain. I thought his knee was completely
- 38:31Speaker 2: blown out. Yes, I thought so too. Completely. So did
- 38:34Speaker 2: the announcers. It was non-contact too. So you imagine the worst.
- 38:37Speaker 2: You think it's the worst. Yeah. It's just, he has
- 38:41Speaker 2: a little spice for the dramatic.
- 38:43Speaker 3: You think?
- 38:43Speaker 2: Yeah. If he would have burned three fingers on Pop-Tart icing,
- 38:47Speaker 2: he'd be out for half the year. Yeah, he would.
- 38:49Speaker 2: He would. Yeah.
- 38:51Speaker 3: He would.
- 38:51Speaker 2: He would. You know, as I tweaked the hamstring before
- 38:54Speaker 2: and it did not hurt as bad as my Pop-Tart incident. Yeah.
- 38:57Speaker 2: I tell you that right now is I'm like trying
- 39:00Speaker 2: to get it off my fingers. Yeah. While trying to
- 39:04Speaker 2: fan the smoke away so that the alarm doesn't go off.
- 39:07Speaker 2: And I'm like holding the damn Pop-Tart and it is
- 39:10Speaker 2: burning through my skin. It sounds like a chemical burn.
- 39:14Speaker 2: It's a chemical burn. I think whatever oil, this was
- 39:16Speaker 2: what was explained to me because the unicorn knows stupid
- 39:18Speaker 2: stuff like this. The palm oil is what they use,
- 39:22Speaker 2: which we're never supposed to eat. So, again, wrong of
- 39:26Speaker 2: me to not see that ingredient come on it's my
- 39:29Speaker 2: fault how did you not know that but apparently palm
- 39:32Speaker 2: oil will do that it will like if it catches
- 39:35Speaker 2: fire or gets hot it will like latch onto your
- 39:38Speaker 2: skin so yeah i got i mean i gotta i
- 39:41Speaker 2: got i mean that's a that's an injury put caleb
- 39:43Speaker 2: williams in your situation and then he's gonna do all
- 39:45Speaker 2: the videos of him rehabbing and like hashtag grinding uh
- 39:49Speaker 2: no time to sleep and it's just him flexing his
- 39:52Speaker 2: hand or something trying to get his skin back and
- 39:54Speaker 2: yeah Let's put it this way. If Caleb Williams would
- 39:59Speaker 2: have suffered the injury I suffered last night, they would
- 40:01Speaker 2: be scouring the waiver wire for a quarterback right now.
- 40:04Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 40:05Speaker 3: All right.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Headlines next. Plus Greg Bell, Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
