- 0:00Speaker 1: Oh, what is going on?
- 0:01Speaker 2: Happy Friday to you, the weekend right around the corner.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Let's get after it, looking forward to it. Hope everything
- 0:09Speaker 2: is going great for you. We'll get to the militia
- 0:11Speaker 2: here shortly. Feel free to check in Militia final hour,
- 0:15Speaker 2: Still have time for you.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Okay, So.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Number one isn't in the top five. All right, this
- 0:22Speaker 2: is what I'm thinking, and this is important. There are
- 0:24Speaker 2: a lot of fans, a lot of media people screwed
- 0:26Speaker 2: this up all the time. Just because a player wins
- 0:31Speaker 2: big does not mean that is automatically a top player. Okay,
- 0:37Speaker 2: that's very important to understand. Because Jalen Hurts is a
- 0:43Speaker 2: good quarterback, but he's being shoehorned into territory I do
- 0:48Speaker 2: not think he belongs in right now. So the question
- 0:53Speaker 2: becomes people are kicking this around, like who's QB five
- 0:58Speaker 2: Because most most media members they have in some sort
- 1:02Speaker 2: of order, mahomes Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson. That's
- 1:06Speaker 2: typically what it is. So the question is like who's fifth,
- 1:10Speaker 2: Who's QB five? And you're getting a lot of well,
- 1:13Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, that's the guy. No, it's not, No, it
- 1:16Speaker 2: is not And This isn't me making Jalen Hurts being
- 1:20Speaker 2: out to be like QB twenty eight.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Or something like that. Okay, he's good.
- 1:24Speaker 2: He was clutch on the biggest stage in the Super
- 1:27Speaker 2: Bowl both times they played the Chiefs. He played great,
- 1:30Speaker 2: So I give him his flowers. But fifth best quarterback
- 1:34Speaker 2: in the league. No, And this is the deal. He
- 1:37Speaker 2: won big. He's coming off a Super Bowl win. But
- 1:41Speaker 2: that's not the only thing you have to consider here.
- 1:44Speaker 2: There are so many other things to consider. For one,
- 1:48Speaker 2: think of this this idea that, hey, Jalen Hurts just wins.
- 1:52Speaker 2: Is that because primarily of Jalen Hurts or is it
- 1:55Speaker 2: because of oh, I don't know, these seven other things
- 1:59Speaker 2: like Saquon Barkley two thousand yard rusher, best offensive line
- 2:02Speaker 2: in football, you have aj Brown, DeVante Smith, Dallas Goddart
- 2:06Speaker 2: to throw to. You have oh, by the way, the
- 2:08Speaker 2: number two scoring defense in football last season. Could be
- 2:11Speaker 2: that could be more that. I think it's more that.
- 2:14Speaker 2: And also this, think of Nick Foles for a second.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Nick Foles won a Super Bowl with the Eagles.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Is he a top five quarterback?
- 2:23Speaker 3: No?
- 2:23Speaker 2: He wasn't he if he had binoculars, he'd still be like, yeah,
- 2:27Speaker 2: I still don't see the top five quarterbacks. I man,
- 2:31Speaker 2: I think I see QB twenty, I think, But like
- 2:36Speaker 2: the top five, No, no, I had no trace of them.
- 2:39Speaker 2: He wasn't even close. That guy was a journeyman. The
- 2:43Speaker 2: rest of his career was a backup with the Eagles.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Carson Wentz got hurt, he stepped in admirably, played great,
- 2:52Speaker 2: and the rest is history. But that doesn't mean just
- 2:55Speaker 2: because he went toe to toe with Tom Brady in
- 2:57Speaker 2: a Super Bowl and played awesome to Philly, actual catches
- 3:00Speaker 2: the touch down, the whole thing, that doesn't mean that
- 3:03Speaker 2: he's one of the top players because he was huge
- 3:06Speaker 2: on the biggest stage.
- 3:08Speaker 1: It takes more than that.
- 3:10Speaker 2: People were saying this about Jimmy Garoppolo not that long ago.
- 3:13Speaker 1: He just wins. You remember that, he just wins.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Jimmy g he just went He's like, yeah, he won
- 3:20Speaker 2: a lot of games with the Niners, nearly won a
- 3:22Speaker 2: Super Bowl and all that. He just went, yeah, he
- 3:25Speaker 2: went to the Raiders and guess what, the winning stopped.
- 3:30Speaker 2: It stopped immediately. It just you know, grab the emergency
- 3:36Speaker 2: brake on all that. Winning at three and three has
- 3:39Speaker 2: been a backup since ye know we'll get to the
- 3:41Speaker 2: back issues of Matthew Stafford, but just funny, it was
- 3:45Speaker 2: a couple of years ago people are like, Jimmy G
- 3:47Speaker 2: just wins, and now it's like, oh my gosh. If
- 3:50Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford is hurt and Jimmy G has to fill
- 3:53Speaker 2: in for like five six games, oh gosh, you know
- 3:57Speaker 2: that he just wins, stuff can go away real quickly.
- 4:02Speaker 2: And with Jalen Hurts, that's why you have to consider
- 4:05Speaker 2: more than just the wins.
- 4:08Speaker 1: I know that's that screws some people up.
- 4:11Speaker 2: But winning as a team doesn't mean you're automatically a
- 4:15Speaker 2: great individual player. The Eagles have a great team and
- 4:20Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts is a part of that success. But is
- 4:23Speaker 2: he top five? Like again, some of this is the production.
- 4:27Speaker 2: This dude through eighteen touchdown passes last season eighteen. This
- 4:31Speaker 2: is like nineteen seventy three. Eighteen touchdown passes in today's
- 4:35Speaker 2: NFL wide open offenses, the rules being what they are
- 4:38Speaker 2: eighteen Like, what are your weapons? You have the worst weapons? No,
- 4:42Speaker 2: you got aj Brown, Devontae Smith, Dallas Goddard eighteen touchdow,
- 4:47Speaker 2: Come on, dude, eighteen, what are we talking about? Your
- 4:50Speaker 2: top five get out of here. Jayden Daniels is top
- 4:54Speaker 2: five to me already. That's how special he was. I
- 4:57Speaker 2: know some people want to see more from one of
- 4:59Speaker 2: those people. Oh great, I don't need to see more.
- 5:02Speaker 2: That dude has an outstanding feel for playing quarterback in
- 5:05Speaker 2: the NFL already. He is a running threat, rushed for
- 5:09Speaker 2: over almost nine hundred yards, and the passing ability is
- 5:14Speaker 2: outstanding already. He's a better quarterback than Jalen Hurts's right now.
- 5:20Speaker 2: And I think like this, if you flip flop which
- 5:23Speaker 2: teams those guys are on, if you're being completely honest here,
- 5:29Speaker 2: you put Jaden Daniels. Look at what he did with Washington.
- 5:34Speaker 2: That dude, what was the stat from earlier. I'll get
- 5:36Speaker 2: it for you again. Daniels became the only rookie starting
- 5:40Speaker 2: quarterback in the Super Bowl era We're talking fifty nine years, right,
- 5:45Speaker 2: only guy to reach a conference championship game without a
- 5:49Speaker 2: top defense. Washington ranked twenty fourth in defensive EPA per
- 5:55Speaker 2: play last season. That sucks, okay, Like they're their bottom
- 6:01Speaker 2: you know, quadrant in the league and they're in the
- 6:04Speaker 2: NFC title game. In Jayden Daniels' rookie year. It's the
- 6:08Speaker 2: best rookie year of any quarterback in NFL history. He
- 6:12Speaker 2: was outstanding. You put Jaden Daniels with Philly.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Forget it, it's a rap.
- 6:20Speaker 2: You got sa Quon, best offensive line, all those weapons
- 6:23Speaker 2: to throw to, outstanding defense, top notch, getting after Mahomes
- 6:27Speaker 2: the way they did. You don't think Jaden Daniels could
- 6:29Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl with that? You're out of your
- 6:31Speaker 2: mind if you, of course he could. Meanwhile, if you
- 6:34Speaker 2: put Jalen Hurts with even with Washington, who's got okay talent?
- 6:41Speaker 2: I mean, let alone, you put them with the Titans
- 6:43Speaker 2: or something like that. Jalen Hurts even with Washington, Let's
- 6:47Speaker 2: play that game. No two thousand yard running back, no
- 6:51Speaker 2: top five receiver, no number two scoring defense, Good luck
- 6:54Speaker 2: with that.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Good luck.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I just again, I don't want to make him out
- 6:59Speaker 2: to be some you know, hack quarterback. That's not what
- 7:02Speaker 2: I think of Jalen Hurts. But there are a lot
- 7:05Speaker 2: of times I just don't think much of his passing ability.
- 7:08Speaker 2: He's going to the wrong place with the football, a
- 7:11Speaker 2: little slow going through his progressions, and I I just
- 7:15Speaker 2: I'm not a huge fan of his passing game. And
- 7:19Speaker 2: then also I think he gets too much love for
- 7:21Speaker 2: the brotherly shove push push stuff. It is a weapon.
- 7:25Speaker 2: It is, there's no doubt. But are you telling me
- 7:28Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley can't do that? Seriously, for anybody who's like
- 7:32Speaker 2: shak yeah, say say Quad's Barkley, all right, the dude
- 7:37Speaker 2: can also squat the weight room just like Jalen Hurts.
- 7:40Speaker 2: You put Saquon back there right behind center, and don't
- 7:43Speaker 2: give me this whoa.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Everybody will know what's coming. We don't. With Jalen Hurts.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Was he running play action passes when you know you
- 7:49Speaker 2: line it up for the tush push?
- 7:51Speaker 1: No, we know what's coming. It just can't be stopped.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Maybe Saquon couldn't run it at the same level of effectiveness.
- 8:00Speaker 2: You don't think he could still be incredibly effective doing that.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Of course he could, Absolutely he could. It's mostly the
- 8:07Speaker 2: offensive line and again the guy the leg strength of Saquon.
- 8:11Speaker 2: So this idea, Oh, you're getting so much value from
- 8:14Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts.
- 8:15Speaker 1: No, you're not.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Eighteen touchdown passes. That is not top five in the
- 8:20Speaker 2: NFL right now. Sorry, Like where you end up matters.
- 8:25Speaker 2: I saw this with Travis Kelce. Okay, we're just talking
- 8:29Speaker 2: about him and his lovely girlfriend Taylor Swift. So, Travis
- 8:34Speaker 2: kelce he did an interview with GQ and he begged
- 8:41Speaker 2: the coach at the time, from the Browns head coach
- 8:44Speaker 2: Rod Schudzinski, he begged chud to pick him before the
- 8:47Speaker 2: twenty thirteen NFL draft. Right, so he's in his office
- 8:50Speaker 2: right before the draft. He's like, pick me, dude, please.
- 8:53Speaker 2: His direct quote was in this interview with GQ. Here's
- 8:56Speaker 2: what Travis kelce said. I cried in Chud's office and
- 8:59Speaker 2: say I will effing die for this city. I literally
- 9:03Speaker 2: was in there. I said, I'm sorry, I'm getting emotional.
- 9:06Speaker 2: I grew up down the street. I would efin do
- 9:09Speaker 2: anything to play for the Cleveland Browns. He looked at
- 9:12Speaker 2: me like I was insane? Is that not top notch Browns?
- 9:19Speaker 2: Right there? Here's this kid grew up here. We'll die
- 9:24Speaker 2: for this team in this city. Let's not select him.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Let's just not Let's go somewhere else with our draft picks. Right.
- 9:31Speaker 2: But ask yourself this, and this is how it connects
- 9:34Speaker 2: to Jalen Hurts. What if the Browns did draft Travis Kelcey,
- 9:40Speaker 2: how does his career play out? He doesn't have even
- 9:45Speaker 2: close to the success he's enjoyed while being a member
- 9:49Speaker 2: of the Chiefs and having Alex Smith for a couple
- 9:52Speaker 2: of years and Mahomes for gosh what seven years now.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Mahomes has been one of the best young quarterbacks the
- 9:59Speaker 2: NFL has ever seen before. It's worked out great for
- 10:02Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey, multi time Super Bowl champion, the whole nine yards.
- 10:06Speaker 2: He's not doing that with Cleveland. Okay, So where you
- 10:09Speaker 2: end up matters, what your supporting cast is matters. And
- 10:14Speaker 2: so this idea that Jalen Hurts is top five, get
- 10:18Speaker 2: the hell out of here.
- 10:20Speaker 1: No he's not.
- 10:22Speaker 2: He is not top five. You put Jalen Hurts on
- 10:26Speaker 2: like a bottom feeder team. Oh my gosh, it's just
- 10:30Speaker 2: warts exposed galore. It's like, whoa, yikes, this guy. The
- 10:36Speaker 2: passing ability leaves it quite a bit to be desired here.
- 10:40Speaker 2: That's what it would be. He is living the high
- 10:43Speaker 2: life with that supporting cast. And that's the thing, man,
- 10:47Speaker 2: where you go matters. Travis Kelcey a special as he
- 10:51Speaker 2: is half the player in Cleveland compared to the Chiefs.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts the same thing. Draymond Green good example with
- 10:58Speaker 2: the Warriors, Hall of Famer with the Charlotte Hornets. Just
- 11:02Speaker 2: a guy, average role player who gets a lot more
- 11:05Speaker 2: technical fouls because he's losing his freaking mind with all
- 11:09Speaker 2: the losing that's happening. So no, I do not buy
- 11:13Speaker 2: Jalen Hurt's top five quarterback. You can maybe sneak him
- 11:16Speaker 2: in your top ten. I know some people think this
- 11:18Speaker 2: is blasphemy.
- 11:19Speaker 1: It's not. It's just the truth. There are quarterbacks.
- 11:23Speaker 2: You put a lot of quarterbacks in that situation over
- 11:25Speaker 2: there in Philly and they could have equal success.
- 11:28Speaker 1: They might do it a different way.
- 11:30Speaker 2: They might not run the push push like Jalen Hurts does,
- 11:33Speaker 2: But I guarantee you this, they'll put up better passing
- 11:36Speaker 2: numbers and it's gonna even out. It is going to
- 11:39Speaker 2: even out. You might be even coming out ahead in
- 11:42Speaker 2: that department there. So yeah, I'm not buying it.
- 11:46Speaker 4: I don't want to.
- 11:46Speaker 2: That's a dangerous thing with doing this type of stuff
- 11:48Speaker 2: where I make it sound like this dude sucks out loud.
- 11:51Speaker 1: He doesn't. He's good. He's a good quarterback. Again, my
- 11:54Speaker 1: voice goes up in.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Octave because I can't be oh man, he's awesome. I'm
- 11:57Speaker 2: not like, you know, like DMX right, awesome, you know,
- 12:00Speaker 2: like my voice doesn't go down, it goes up, like, hey,
- 12:03Speaker 2: he's good, he's good. That's Jalen Hurts. He's good. He's
- 12:09Speaker 2: nowhere near elite. He's not a top five guy. That's
- 12:13Speaker 2: my spiel for you. By the way, real fast the
- 12:15Speaker 2: little bow on this. I was looking at this little
- 12:18Speaker 2: draft history nuggets here.
- 12:19Speaker 1: So I was curious.
- 12:20Speaker 2: I was like, okay, Travis Kelce twenty thirteen draft was
- 12:24Speaker 2: willing to die to be a Cleveland Brown. Cleveland was like, thanks,
- 12:28Speaker 2: we'll take it from here. So what did they do
- 12:31Speaker 2: that draft? Who did they take? And this is interesting? Okay,
- 12:35Speaker 2: So Brown's twenty thirteen draft sixth overall pick Barkavius Mingo.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Remember that Mingo out of LSU. It didn't work out,
- 12:45Speaker 2: by the way. Fun fact, we were talking about dogs earlier.
- 12:48Speaker 2: I forgot our very very first dog. I was a tiny,
- 12:50Speaker 2: tiny kid. I barely even remember. Our first dog was
- 12:54Speaker 2: named Mingo, you know, like Barkievius Mingo. I don't know
- 12:57Speaker 2: why they named our dog. Mingo wasn't after bark Barkiev's
- 13:01Speaker 2: probably wasn't even born yet. But anyway, Mingo. He bit
- 13:04Speaker 2: me on the year, that evil dog. You know, I
- 13:07Speaker 2: was very young, and all of a sudden, no more Mingo.
- 13:10Speaker 2: He was gone, Audios Mingco Like this, kids, not expendable,
- 13:14Speaker 2: you Mingo, you're expendable. You go to a friend's house.
- 13:16Speaker 2: You know, you're out of here, out of here, hit
- 13:18Speaker 2: the road. So anyway, Barkivius Mingo, sixth overall pick. This
- 13:22Speaker 2: is the interesting part. So Cleveland their second round pick.
- 13:25Speaker 2: They forfeited it because they used their selection to get
- 13:31Speaker 2: wide receiver Josh Gordon in the supplemental draft. Right, remember,
- 13:35Speaker 2: the wide receiver is really good, had his struggles and
- 13:38Speaker 2: drinking that sort of thing, but really productive couple of years.
- 13:42Speaker 2: They picked him with the supplemental draft. Didn't have a
- 13:44Speaker 2: second round pick in the actual NFL draft, so third
- 13:47Speaker 2: round Travis Kelcey was the first pick in the third round,
- 13:51Speaker 2: taken by the Chiefs sixty third overall. The Browns had
- 13:54Speaker 2: the sixty eighth pick, so they could have moved up.
- 13:57Speaker 2: They didn't. They didn't move for the kid who was
- 14:00Speaker 2: willing to die for the city in the organization. They're like, ah,
- 14:03Speaker 2: we're good. Sixty eighth pick. They took a guy out
- 14:06Speaker 2: of San Diego State, cornerback Leon McFadden. Don't remember him either,
- 14:11Speaker 2: Do not remember this guy? And to make things even
- 14:14Speaker 2: worse after bypassing on Travis Kelcey not moving up to
- 14:18Speaker 2: get them the very next pick, sixty ninth overall, the
- 14:21Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals drafted cornerback Tyron Matthew quite a bit better
- 14:26Speaker 2: than Leon McFadden. So you know, left and right, the
- 14:29Speaker 2: Browns just screwing everything up. Their first round pick fizzled out,
- 14:34Speaker 2: their second round pick was good for a season or two,
- 14:36Speaker 2: and then you know, he fizzled out of the league.
- 14:39Speaker 2: And their third round pick they could have had the
- 14:41Speaker 2: Honey Badger, they went with the no name. So there
- 14:43Speaker 2: you go. There's the Browns in a nutshell right there.
- 14:46Speaker 2: But look, man, it matters where you end up, especially
- 14:49Speaker 2: for quarterbacks. Absolutely matters where you end up. And I
- 14:53Speaker 2: do not think Jalen Hurts would be even close to
- 14:56Speaker 2: similar success on a much lesser team, much lesser talent.
- 15:01Speaker 2: I just think they do more for him than he
- 15:03Speaker 2: does for them. And I'm not saying he doesn't do
- 15:05Speaker 2: anything for them, but they do more for him. I
- 15:08Speaker 2: truly believe that. All right, eight seven seven ninety nine
- 15:12Speaker 2: on Fox is your number. Some of the militia wants
- 15:13Speaker 2: to check and we'll get to them. Also, coming up next,
- 15:17Speaker 2: some potential bad news for a big name player, and man,
- 15:21Speaker 2: it looks like hideous news for one of my favorite teams.
- 15:24Speaker 2: I'll share that with you. Coming up, it is Fox

- 15:54Speaker 5: What the hell are you doing out studio? Get him, Polly,

- 16:14Speaker 2: been helping customers find the right tires for how, what
- 16:17Speaker 2: and where they drive, ship fast and free, backed by
- 16:19Speaker 2: free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile
- 16:24Speaker 2: tire installation, tire rack dot Com. The way tire buying
- 16:27Speaker 2: should be okay, I'll get to the militia here in
- 16:31Speaker 2: just a couple of minutes. And then also coop scoops
- 16:34Speaker 2: right around the corner as well. But some potential bad
- 16:37Speaker 2: news for a well known player, and then it sounds
- 16:39Speaker 2: like pretty horrible news for my team. So first off,
- 16:42Speaker 2: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford he will work out on Saturday,
- 16:47Speaker 2: according to head coach Sean mcfay. So that's good news
- 16:50Speaker 2: based on what's happened in training camp. No show. We
- 16:53Speaker 2: haven't seen Matthew Stafford out there. So he hasn't practiced
- 16:57Speaker 2: during training camp because of an aggravated disc in his back.
- 17:02Speaker 2: And so last Saturday, Stafford threw sixty eight passes in
- 17:06Speaker 2: a workout. This was at the Rams team facility. No
- 17:09Speaker 2: limitations in terms of the types of throws he was
- 17:12Speaker 2: able to make. That's the good news. The bad news
- 17:14Speaker 2: is Sean McVay said that Stafford felt good and that
- 17:19Speaker 2: he didn't feel good enough to throw two days later.
- 17:22Speaker 2: So that's the thing, man, think about this. Sixty eight throws,
- 17:28Speaker 2: he took no hits, and he's on the shelf for
- 17:32Speaker 2: the entire week. Like just making throws put him on
- 17:36Speaker 2: the shelf for an entire week. What's gonna happen when
- 17:39Speaker 2: the regular season rolls around. He's taking hits, he's got
- 17:43Speaker 2: an aggravated disc in his back. I don't know, man,
- 17:47Speaker 2: that's it doesn't sound great that Stafford's just gonna be
- 17:52Speaker 2: the epitome of health in twenty twenty five. Now the
- 17:56Speaker 2: S word has not been discussed yet. What is the
- 18:01Speaker 2: S word? That would be surgery That has not been
- 18:05Speaker 2: talked about. So McVeigh was asked about this whether surgery
- 18:10Speaker 2: has been ruled out for Stafford, and McVeigh said, that
- 18:14Speaker 2: hasn't been a conversation that we've had. So it hasn't
- 18:18Speaker 2: progressed to that level of panic. It's not like, you know,
- 18:23Speaker 2: sound the alarms type situation yet. But man, with every
- 18:26Speaker 2: day you can't feel good as a RAMS fan with
- 18:30Speaker 2: Stafford in back issues and not even practicing, you know,
- 18:34Speaker 2: just throwing and then he's on the shelf for a
- 18:36Speaker 2: lot more days. That's not a good sign whatsoever. Now
- 18:40Speaker 2: as far as bad news for my favorite team, So NFL,
- 18:44Speaker 2: I've been always been a Dolphins guy, and I guess
- 18:48Speaker 2: they stunk it up something fierce on Wednesday. This is
- 18:50Speaker 2: a joint practice with the Lions. And look, man, I
- 18:54Speaker 2: think some of these details can get incredibly geeky with like, oh,
- 18:57Speaker 2: this quarterback is, stat line is this, and you know
- 19:00Speaker 2: we're getting way too in depth with some of this.
- 19:03Speaker 2: But these guys who are watching practice are like, yo,
- 19:06Speaker 2: this was the most lobsided joint practice I've ever seen
- 19:11Speaker 2: in my life.
- 19:12Speaker 1: The Dolphins got wrecked. I'm in ross.
- 19:15Speaker 2: Saint Brown was chewing them alive, you know, Like one
- 19:19Speaker 2: guy went as far as to say is the most
- 19:21Speaker 2: lobsided joint practice he's ever seen.
- 19:24Speaker 1: And then you get this on Thursday.
- 19:27Speaker 2: So veteran running back Matt Brida, you might remember him,
- 19:30Speaker 2: he might not. He plans to retire after seven NFL seasons.
- 19:35Speaker 2: I didn't know he wasn't retired already, but the Dolphins
- 19:38Speaker 2: recently requested a workout with Brita and he declined. He
- 19:43Speaker 2: was like, you know what, I'm just gonna call it
- 19:44Speaker 2: the career. I'm good.
- 19:47Speaker 1: How bad are things for the Dolphins where.
- 19:49Speaker 2: They're reaching out to a no name running back and
- 19:52Speaker 2: he's like, you know what, I think I'll actually retire instead.
- 19:56Speaker 2: That's probably a better option for me at this point.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, and you hear these details. Matt Brida.
- 20:03Speaker 2: He spent time in training camp last year with the
- 20:06Speaker 2: forty nine ers, but he was released before the season
- 20:09Speaker 2: and didn't even play. Last year. He's been inactive. He
- 20:13Speaker 2: didn't play in twenty twenty four. Dolphins reached out to
- 20:16Speaker 2: him like, hey man, we got a spot for you.
- 20:18Speaker 1: Want to try out. He's like, yeah, no, I'm good.
- 20:20Speaker 2: I'll just not play anymore for anybody. This is what
- 20:24Speaker 2: I'll do. Wow, that's pretty crazy. Now the connection McDaniel
- 20:29Speaker 2: was in San Francisco across pass with Brita. You know,
- 20:32Speaker 2: they have familiarity. That's the sort of thing.
- 20:35Speaker 6: You know.
- 20:36Speaker 2: But still that's not great, not a great sign whatsoever
- 20:40Speaker 2: from my fins. Let's get out to militia before coop scoops,
- 20:44Speaker 2: Blind Scott. Let me hear from him, Blind Scott on
- 20:47Speaker 2: the line here Fox Sports. Ready, what's going on, Blind Scott?
- 20:50Speaker 7: Hey, what's up. I wanted to do a New York
- 20:52Speaker 7: Jets take. So like Aaron Rodgers, I'm a big New
- 20:56Speaker 7: York Jets fan. I like the fan base. I like
- 20:58Speaker 7: the fan base because they're like the time losers. I
- 21:01Speaker 7: like how the die High football fans. I watched every
- 21:04Speaker 7: snap last year Aaron Rodgers and the Jets. He sucked
- 21:06Speaker 7: at every snap. He shouldn't shouldn't even be in the
- 21:08Speaker 7: NFL right now. So now he's in Pittsburgh, it's a
- 21:11Speaker 7: clown show. They're they're not an offensive team, they're a
- 21:14Speaker 7: defensive team. He's going to just completely ruin that franchise.
- 21:17Speaker 7: He goes on that Pat McAfee showing that's a terrible show,
- 21:21Speaker 7: like he has pan lost their shirt on that guy.
- 21:23Speaker 7: Nobody watches that. That's for a non relevant audiences that
- 21:26Speaker 7: don't have real local sports markets, you know. So that's
- 21:29Speaker 7: why he's able to go on there and spew nonsense. Hey,
- 21:32Speaker 7: you know these threats that come into sports media people
- 21:35Speaker 7: both they're all fake. If you confront these people in
- 21:38Speaker 7: real life, they would color like if you sent the
- 21:40Speaker 7: police over their house, they would just cower into nothing,
- 21:43Speaker 7: you know what I mean. But there's that one threat. Like,
- 21:46Speaker 7: one thing about this is this is called problematic. Men
- 21:50Speaker 7: like women don't threaten sports people, you know what I mean.
- 21:53Speaker 7: Only men do that to each other. So men have
- 21:55Speaker 7: to police each other on this, you know what I'm saying.
- 21:58Speaker 7: That's the only way that it will get resolved. But
- 22:00Speaker 7: it's all fake anyways. It's all like a macho type
- 22:03Speaker 7: of thing, you know. You know, we like to be
- 22:05Speaker 7: tough as men, you know what I'm saying. So if
- 22:08Speaker 7: you're gonna say something, you're gonna be able to back
- 22:10Speaker 7: it up or face the consequences. There's a thing with
- 22:12Speaker 7: freedom of speech, but freedom of speech comes with consequences
- 22:16Speaker 7: if you're gonna say those actions, actions mean a lot,
- 22:19Speaker 7: a lot louder than words. The thing about that.
- 22:22Speaker 2: But the thing though, blind Scott, let me stop you
- 22:23Speaker 2: right there real fast, because we're talking about the gambling
- 22:26Speaker 2: sports betting and some of these idiotic fans that you know,
- 22:30Speaker 2: like make death threats and all that stuff. Here's the thing, man, Yeah,
- 22:34Speaker 2: I hear you between words and actions. But let's say
- 22:36Speaker 2: you're the player. You don't know if this person's serious.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Lance McColo's starting pitcher, like his family got threatened to
- 22:43Speaker 2: be murdered. So let's say you go out to eat
- 22:45Speaker 2: with your family the next day. You don't know if
- 22:47Speaker 2: this person's for real. You don't know if he's just
- 22:49Speaker 2: talking trash, which most likely is the case. You don't
- 22:51Speaker 2: know that for sure. That's the difference, Right.
- 22:54Speaker 7: It's really insensitive and it causes you TOMA. It will
- 22:58Speaker 7: cause you COMPLEXSD which will make you go see a psychiatrist,
- 23:02Speaker 7: which will come. You'll traumatize your family after be a trauma,
- 23:06Speaker 7: trauma like that. That's how trauma works, you know what
- 23:08Speaker 7: I mean. So it's just one person who's been traumatized
- 23:11Speaker 7: by someone else traumatizing another person, and they're gambling because
- 23:14Speaker 7: it's an addiction, because it feeds that empty hole deep
- 23:17Speaker 7: down inside them. But that's not how gambling works. There's
- 23:21Speaker 7: people at the Red Sox games that bet on every
- 23:24Speaker 7: pitch that are there. You know what I'm saying. They
- 23:26Speaker 7: have pitch by pitch betting. But it's the same as
- 23:29Speaker 7: drinking and playing keino and everything. You know, you can't
- 23:33Speaker 7: recognize this stuff publicly. The more you bring public attention
- 23:36Speaker 7: to it, the more it empowers people to do it
- 23:38Speaker 7: more because people are idiots.
- 23:40Speaker 6: You know.
- 23:41Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just I appreciate you checking in, blind Scott.
- 23:43Speaker 2: It's good to hear from you.
- 23:44Speaker 3: Man.
- 23:44Speaker 2: It's just not acceptable. You know, I know these athletes
- 23:47Speaker 2: make a ton of money. It doesn't make it okay
- 23:50Speaker 2: for people to threaten their lives or their families lives
- 23:53Speaker 2: because the parlay didn't cash. That's just it's insanity, man.
- 23:57Speaker 2: It should never be like that. No athlete. No, they're
- 24:00Speaker 2: not just athletes that are paid a bunch of money.
- 24:02Speaker 2: They're human beings. No human being should have his life
- 24:06Speaker 2: or her life threatened, or their family's lives threatened, and
- 24:09Speaker 2: the person just gets away with it. That's crazy. That's insanity.
- 24:13Speaker 2: All Right, we got Coop scoops on a lighter note,
- 24:15Speaker 2: let's dive right into that Coop. You take it away, buddy,
- 24:17Speaker 2: I'm excited for this.
- 24:19Speaker 5: Oh oh hold on, hold on, hold on, I'm sorry.

- 25:55Speaker 5: liking this. It's got an eighty four percent critics score
- 25:57Speaker 5: on Rotten Tomatoes and then ninety three percent score, so
- 26:00Speaker 5: audiences are liking it even more.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Dude, I just I gotta say, real fast food. I
- 26:04Speaker 2: had a flashback. You'll have one too. You remember the
- 26:07Speaker 2: No Buddies?
- 26:08Speaker 5: Yeah, hell yeah, I just thought this.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Is what we did. It was a goofy thing like
- 26:13Speaker 2: weekend overnights when Coop and I were working together. That's
- 26:16Speaker 2: it's kind of like the Malard Militia. That's the best
- 26:18Speaker 2: we could come up with with. Are you a no Buddy? Yeah?
- 26:22Speaker 2: Are you one of our listeners? But that's what I
- 26:24Speaker 2: just thought of what you say in the movie title,
- 26:26Speaker 2: good stuff.
- 26:27Speaker 5: Yeah, mister nice guy is an original nobody.
- 26:29Speaker 1: That's right.

- 26:52Speaker 5: gonna be a good one. So check that out in
- 26:54Speaker 5: theaters right now. Also in theaters. This one was probably
- 26:58Speaker 5: more of a limited release, so you might have a
- 27:00Speaker 5: little bit of trouble finding it. But it is called
- 27:02Speaker 5: Americana and it is a movie that stars Sidney Sweeney.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Oh see how your voice changed right there. I know

- 31:19Speaker 5: it's a movie about her. This is on Wednesday, August
- 31:22Speaker 5: twentieth on Hulu and it is the Twisted Tail of
- 31:25Speaker 5: Amanda Knox. It is a limited series about the girl
- 31:31Speaker 5: who was wrongfully convicted of murder and held in prison
- 31:36Speaker 5: in Italy. This was snap. Yeah, this was all going
- 31:39Speaker 5: on when I was I think it was when I
- 31:41Speaker 5: was in high school and I was like following it
- 31:43Speaker 5: in the news that it was happening, and she's super cute,
- 31:46Speaker 5: so I would have.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Oh man, wow, yeah, but she was innocent.
- 31:50Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, look, there's still to this day, there's
- 31:53Speaker 5: a whole contingent of people that argue that they still
- 31:57Speaker 5: think that she did it, and but I am not
- 32:00Speaker 5: one of those people, and eventually she was. You know, uh,
- 32:05Speaker 5: I guess what's uh, what's the term I'm looking for? Like, yes, exonerated,
- 32:10Speaker 5: thank you, But yeah, that is a that is on
- 32:13Speaker 5: Hulu Wednesday, The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, and that
- 32:16Speaker 5: is Coops Entertainment.
- 32:17Speaker 2: Now, is this because of the facts of the case
- 32:20Speaker 2: or because he found her very attractive that you thought
- 32:22Speaker 2: she was innocent? You know what I mean?
- 32:24Speaker 5: Uh, it was definitely because of the facts of the case. Okay,
- 32:29Speaker 5: I want I wanted her to be innocent, but no,

- 34:08Speaker 2: the New York Jets to win the Super Bowl. Why
- 34:11Speaker 2: you would do this? I have no idea. It's better
- 34:14Speaker 2: put not three one hundred ninety six dollars in ninety
- 34:18Speaker 2: six cents. I have no idea why the person would
- 34:21Speaker 2: bet that. But the Browns are two fifty to one
- 34:24Speaker 2: to win the super Bowl. They're thirtieth among thirty two
- 34:28Speaker 2: NFL teams to win it all, and yeah, this guy
- 34:31Speaker 2: would win about eight hundred thousand dollars if he's right.
- 34:36Speaker 2: Not gonna be right. It's gonna be a disastrous season
- 34:39Speaker 2: for Gang Green. But uh, okay, you know, hey, I
- 34:43Speaker 2: gave you a story a little bit earlier. There was
- 34:45Speaker 2: a guy that won a thirteen leg preseason the NFL
- 34:49Speaker 2: parlay bet, and it actually turned out to be an
- 34:51Speaker 2: eleven leg bet. A couple of games got voided, one
- 34:54Speaker 2: was canceled early due to injury, the other one was
- 34:58Speaker 2: a tie, so it's basically an eleven leg parlay bet.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Won thirty thousand bucks on a ten dollars bet. That's amazing.
- 35:06Speaker 1: But that's the thing.
- 35:07Speaker 2: There's a reason why they put crazy stuff like that
- 35:09Speaker 2: out there, Like, man, ten dollars, you got that much money,
- 35:12Speaker 2: all right, let me let me bet the Jets to
- 35:15Speaker 2: win it all. It's like, no, that's that's just not
- 35:18Speaker 2: gonna happen.
- 35:19Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 35:20Speaker 2: By the way we're talking about some of these comments
- 35:22Speaker 2: on the QB tiers list from Mike Sando. He works
- 35:26Speaker 2: for the Athletic Now, so he has all these anonymous quotes.
- 35:29Speaker 2: I know we look down on anonymous quotes like, hey,
- 35:33Speaker 2: put your name on it. I agree with Herman Edwards,
- 35:35Speaker 2: like put your name on it. If you're saying something,
- 35:37Speaker 2: then let it be known that you said it. But
- 35:40Speaker 2: the beauty of anonymous quotes is sometimes you do get
- 35:43Speaker 2: the unfiltered, unvarnished quotes that are just gold. And a
- 35:48Speaker 2: couple of these quotes about Justin Fields are hilarious. New
- 35:52Speaker 2: Jets quarterback Justin Fields. This is an offensive coach talking
- 35:56Speaker 2: about Justin Fields and it starts off kind of like positive.
- 36:00Speaker 1: And then it takes a turn. Man, so he goes.
- 36:02Speaker 2: The Jets know who he is, what he is, and
- 36:07Speaker 2: they are going to try to structure things for him.
- 36:10Speaker 2: The problem is the hardest thing to fix with the
- 36:13Speaker 2: quarterback is keeping their eyes up the field, seeing the field,
- 36:19Speaker 2: and not being affected by the rush. And those are
- 36:23Speaker 2: three of the worst things that he does.
- 36:29Speaker 1: That is an outstanding quote.
- 36:30Speaker 2: I love that there's one more in terms of his
- 36:34Speaker 2: limitations as a passer, another offensive coach said of Justin Fields,
- 36:38Speaker 2: at the end of the third quarter, you'll be down
- 36:40Speaker 2: eight ten points. Great, you kept it close. Now what so?
- 36:46Speaker 2: I mean, not a lot of faith around the league
- 36:48Speaker 2: for Justin Fields. But hey, we'll see. I didn't realize
- 36:52Speaker 2: that the Jets have had a bottom ten scoring offense
- 36:56Speaker 2: the last nine years, bottom ten in scoring the last
- 37:00Speaker 2: nine years, and Justin Fields is just gonna unlock them.
- 37:05Speaker 2: Come on, it's gonna be a train wreck.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Okay.
- 37:09Speaker 2: So as far as bets, I want to compare notes
- 37:12Speaker 2: with Coop and Lorrainer real fast. I saw a couple
- 37:14Speaker 2: of prop bets that I thought were interesting for the season. Okay,
- 37:18Speaker 2: so we'll make some picks just for fun. This is
- 37:20Speaker 2: a regular season only highest total of receiving touchdowns. Will
- 37:26Speaker 2: anybody go over thirteen and a half receiving touchdowns? Would
- 37:30Speaker 2: you take the over or go with the under on
- 37:32Speaker 2: that way?
- 37:32Speaker 5: Is that where they catch the ball and then make
- 37:34Speaker 5: a touchdown.
- 37:35Speaker 2: That's exactly what it is, Yes, and it's over what
- 37:38Speaker 2: thirteen and a half? Do you think there will be
- 37:40Speaker 2: one individual player that has at least fourteen touchdown catches? No,
- 37:45Speaker 2: wait for the whole season, whole season. Oh then yes,
- 37:48Speaker 2: you go yes, Yes, I think that's the yes final answer. Yes, Okay, Coop,
- 37:51Speaker 2: what do you think? Yes, you go yes as well. Okay,
- 37:55Speaker 2: I'll go no, just to be different than you guys.
- 37:57Speaker 2: All right, I don't know what we had with the
- 38:00Speaker 2: Are you gonna keep track of this for the whole season? Absolutely?
- 38:03Speaker 5: There were two that did it last year.
- 38:06Speaker 2: What was the most? I know McLaurin at thirteen? Who
- 38:08Speaker 2: got over it?
- 38:09Speaker 5: Jamar Chase?
- 38:10Speaker 1: Yeah, do you get to sixteen? Seventeen, seventeen? Who else
- 38:14Speaker 1: did it?
- 38:15Speaker 5: That's it them two? And then a'm and Ross and
- 38:18Speaker 5: Brown had twelve.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Okay, so it was just Jamar because you gotta get
- 38:22Speaker 2: over thirteen over Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna
- 38:25Speaker 2: say it.
- 38:25Speaker 5: I'm gonna say yes. Okay, it's a good good season
- 38:28Speaker 5: for football.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Okay, here's a good one regular season highest total passing
- 38:32Speaker 2: yards over four nine hundred and fifty and a half.
- 38:36Speaker 2: So to make it easy, like you got to get
- 38:39Speaker 2: real close to five thousand. Well, we have a five
- 38:41Speaker 2: thousand yard passer. You go yes or no?
- 38:44Speaker 6: On that.
- 38:45Speaker 2: We didn't have one last year. Burrow came the closest.
- 38:48Speaker 2: But I'm gonna say no, you go no, Lorena.
- 38:51Speaker 5: Oh gosh, eh, let's go. Yes. I'm gonna be optimistic. Okay,
- 38:58Speaker 5: they're gonna be a superstar this year.
- 39:01Speaker 2: I'm gonna go no as well. I'll take the under,
- 39:03Speaker 2: but I like your optimism. Here's a good one. We
- 39:06Speaker 2: just saw a seventy yard field goal by Cam Little
- 39:08Speaker 2: of the Jags, longest made field goal this year over
- 39:12Speaker 2: sixty five and a half or under sixty five and
- 39:15Speaker 2: a half. Now, remember the record is sixty six, so
- 39:18Speaker 2: you got to tie the record. Do you think that'll
- 39:20Speaker 2: happen over you go over slamming the over slamming it. Yes,
- 39:25Speaker 2: new day and age for kickers, baby, huh. Yes.
- 39:28Speaker 5: And and you know, I think they think that they
- 39:31Speaker 5: want that little happy ending guy off the record book.
- 39:37Speaker 2: That little happy ending guy. Justin Tucker, get him out
- 39:40Speaker 2: of there, okay, Justin Tuger. No, what did I say?
- 39:48Speaker 2: Did I say the wrong name?
- 39:49Speaker 5: No? No, you said the right name. Okay, I'm in
- 39:52Speaker 5: a joke. Okay, I don't even know if it was appropriate.
- 39:57Speaker 5: I said. I said, I said, Tugger.
- 40:03Speaker 2: I get We're We're off the rails now here on
- 40:06Speaker 2: a Friday morning. Okay, last one, last one before we
- 40:09Speaker 2: get out of here.
- 40:10Speaker 1: I love this one.
- 40:11Speaker 2: Will any regular season game end in a tie? The
- 40:15Speaker 2: yes is twelve to one, the no is minus five thousand.
- 40:19Speaker 2: You have to risk five thousand dollars to win one
- 40:21Speaker 2: hundred dollars. That's insanity. Remember we got new rules, right,
- 40:25Speaker 2: both teams get a possession in overtime. I say, yes,
- 40:27Speaker 2: we're gonna have one tie this year. Twelve one.
- 40:30Speaker 1: You with me, Coop?
- 40:31Speaker 5: Sure, let's do it.
- 40:33Speaker 6: Ah we go.
- 40:33Speaker 1: Now it's a party. We'll catch you guys later
