Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: What's up, party people? Bueno, como estas?
- 0:07Speaker 2: Oh, oh, oh, it's Mike and Bo.
- 0:09Speaker 1: This is my friend, Matt.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Panthers 31, Falcons 23.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Young, the pass is wide open and complete to Hubbard.
- 0:18Speaker 2: Touchdown, Carolina. This is my friend, T-Bone. I think the
- 0:23Speaker 2: Panthers win this game 34 to 20. Hurd and Gold,
- 0:26Speaker 2: 24 seconds left.
- 0:30Speaker 1: To the corner.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Caught.
- 0:31Speaker 4: Waller.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Touchdown.
- 0:33Speaker 5: They win this game.
- 0:34Speaker 1: They do so convincingly.
- 0:36Speaker 5: Give me Carolina.
- 0:37Speaker 1: On the road.
- 0:38Speaker 4: 31-14.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Pass is intercepted off the tip. Taken away. It's Floyd again. Touchdown.
- 0:48Speaker 1: You're listening to the Mackin' Bo Show on Mackin' Bo Radio.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Touching me. Touching you.
- 1:04Speaker 6: The times never seemed so good.
- 1:08Speaker 3: Oh, man. Panther Victory Mondays are back, y'all. And it
- 1:12Speaker 3: comes at the expense of the hideous Atlanta Falcons.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 1:18Speaker 3: What a beatdown, y'all. What a way to bounce back
- 1:21Speaker 3: from a brutal. Week one loss. Bryce Young keeps balling.
- 1:26Speaker 3: The defense had a response. Devin Lloyd's contract has already
- 1:30Speaker 3: probably paid for itself in one game. It's unbelievable. Unbelievable.
- 1:34Speaker 1: And we hope.
- 1:35Speaker 3: Y'all are excited, too, about the Carolina Panthers getting that
- 1:39Speaker 3: 34-3 dub and continuing to dominate Atlanta as of late.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Four straight wins against them. For Bryce, it's five straight
- 1:48Speaker 3: wins against the Atlanta Falcons. So you know we are
- 1:52Speaker 3: talking plenty of Panthers today celebrating. Fitty has already showed
- 1:55Speaker 3: me the dance moves. that he plans to use in
- 1:58Speaker 3: the first victory dance.
- 1:59Speaker 2: Of the season. He showed us those last year. It's
- 2:02Speaker 2: the Fred Flintstone butter churn stutter step move. I got
- 2:06Speaker 2: some new ones here. I got some new ones. In
- 2:09Speaker 2: the lab, I've cooked up a couple new.
- 2:11Speaker 1: There you go, baby. The shoulders are going to move
- 2:13Speaker 1: a different direction. Okay, I like that. I like that.
- 2:17Speaker 3: I would never, Bone, use the same dance moves year
- 2:20Speaker 3: after year. That would never be something I would do.
- 2:22Speaker 3: You're not staying with them. I have a little problem here, fellas.
- 2:26Speaker 3: It is a fat year, and my Panther victory coat's
- 2:29Speaker 3: not fitting as well. I'm sort of like Chris Farley,
- 2:33Speaker 3: Mac and Tommy boy in this thing right now.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Give me that thing, bud. Give me that thing.
- 2:37Speaker 3: I got bad news for the two of you and
- 2:39Speaker 3: NC State fans. We will talk college football today on
- 2:41Speaker 3: the show as well.
- 2:42Speaker 7: Why?
- 2:42Speaker 2: Why?
- 2:43Speaker 1: Why? We got all week to talk about that. We
- 2:45Speaker 1: got all week. That must happen.
- 2:49Speaker 2: I didn't get a chance to say good morning to
- 2:51Speaker 2: my friend Brovon, by the way, over here.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Oh, that's okay. All right. Thank you.
- 2:54Speaker 3: Thank you for that, man. Yeah, today should, well, I mean,
- 2:58Speaker 3: today should be a fun show, at least when we're
- 2:59Speaker 3: talking about the Panthers. And I'm sure there'll be some
- 3:02Speaker 3: happy college football fans out there, App State probably.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Clemson. I don't even know if y'all are happy. I
- 3:07Speaker 1: know Dabo's happy.
- 3:08Speaker 3: Dabo's probably too happy about the comeback win against the Heels.
- 3:13Speaker 3: We got a lot of stuff to talk about. Charlotte
- 3:15Speaker 3: FC wins. My Lord, they were not good in the
- 3:18Speaker 3: second half, but amazing goal by Maxie wins it.
- 3:22Speaker 1: And Bristol was back, baby.
- 3:24Speaker 3: Bristol on Saturday nights, great racing, especially down the stretch.
- 3:29Speaker 3: and we had ourselves a scrap afterwards. That's what's supposed
- 3:32Speaker 3: to happen at the Bristol Night Race, y'all. So we
- 3:36Speaker 3: will talk about it here on the Mac and Bone Show.
- 3:40Speaker 3: But obviously, Panthers and Falcons Bone is going to be
- 3:44Speaker 3: the lead story.
- 3:45Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm more happier about.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Bryce Young backing up his season opening game with another
- 3:51Speaker 3: damn good game and continuing his mastery over the Falcons.
- 3:56Speaker 3: or the defense, the much maligned defense, bouncing back the
- 4:00Speaker 3: way they did, forcing five turnovers and holding Atlanta to
- 4:03Speaker 3: three points.
- 4:04Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm more happy about.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess that's probably what the theme
- 4:09Speaker 2: will be today. What do you most believe in so far?
- 4:12Speaker 2: What are you most happy about? In nothing Max says,
- 4:15Speaker 2: the NFL is a week-to-week league, like the Panther and
- 4:18Speaker 2: Bears results from this week.
- 4:19Speaker 1: The Panthers allow.
- 4:21Speaker 2: three points and the bears score three points after what
- 4:24Speaker 2: happened last week that's why when we say whatever happened
- 4:27Speaker 2: the week before doesn't always impact the next week well
- 4:30Speaker 2: there's a prime example of that yesterday it's crazy it's
- 4:33Speaker 2: a good point it's crazy and now caleb williams is
- 4:35Speaker 2: hurt sounds like.
- 4:36Speaker 3: It's a hamstring i thought he tore his achilles when
- 4:38Speaker 3: i saw that play bone all red zone channel on
- 4:41Speaker 3: TV too, in the Macabode. I thought that's what it was.
- 4:44Speaker 3: So I'm kind of glad to hear for him. It
- 4:46Speaker 3: is not that, but you're right. And before everybody says, man,
- 4:50Speaker 3: look how much better the Vikings defense is than the Panthers.
- 4:53Speaker 3: How much better did the Panthers offense look than the Vikings?
- 4:56Speaker 3: Vikings won the game against the Bears, but scored nine points.
- 4:59Speaker 3: Panthers put up 37. Bryce Young's on a damn roll.
- 5:02Speaker 3: And you were saying it last week, we talked about
- 5:06Speaker 3: the schedule really looks like it could be one that
- 5:09Speaker 3: allows him bone. to get off to, for the first
- 5:11Speaker 3: time in his career, a good start. And we're not
- 5:14Speaker 3: talking just two games. We're talking moving forward. He looked
- 5:19Speaker 3: so in command, so in control. And I'm not going
- 5:21Speaker 3: to lie to you. There were a few ugly possessions
- 5:23Speaker 3: in the first half. First of all, the offensive penalties
- 5:25Speaker 3: were atrocious. Absolutely atrocious. The amount of rushing yards Chuba
- 5:30Speaker 3: lost because of these knuckleheads on the offensive line was crazy.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Matt Miller at one point joked he just ran for
- 5:36Speaker 3: 100 yards and got none on.
- 5:37Speaker 1: The stat sheet.
- 5:38Speaker 3: Seriously, it's crazy. Canales said he thought it was over
- 5:40Speaker 3: 60 yards they lost. I know Chuba lost 43 yards.
- 5:44Speaker 3: I think it was more than that, but I know
- 5:46Speaker 3: in the second half, I started counting in the second half,
- 5:48Speaker 3: it was 43 yards. in the second half alone. Um,
- 5:52Speaker 3: but man, and it wasn't to my point, it wasn't
- 5:54Speaker 3: real pretty early in the game offensively. I thought we
- 5:58Speaker 3: should have been up more bone than, than we were
- 6:00Speaker 3: kicked a couple of field goals, um, uh, had some penalties, right. But, uh,
- 6:05Speaker 3: by the time it was over, Bryce put his statement
- 6:08Speaker 3: on that. When TMAC went over a hundred yards, and
- 6:11Speaker 3: then the defense. Five turnovers, and Devin Lloyd plays one
- 6:14Speaker 3: of the greatest games a Carolina Panther player has ever played.
- 6:17Speaker 1: It's that simple.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Yeah, even XL's involved in there, too, yesterday, making huge plays.
- 6:23Speaker 2: It's everything we wanted, Mac, in a win. And Devin
- 6:27Speaker 2: Lloyd probably gets his own segment here, but Devin Lloyd, Mac,
- 6:32Speaker 2: for him to have... one of the great games ever
- 6:36Speaker 2: as a Panther linebacker. Think about what he's up against
- 6:39Speaker 2: in terms of Panther linebacker history. And for him in
- 6:42Speaker 2: game two to already have one of the best played
- 6:45Speaker 2: games as a Panther linebacker, that is a remarkable thing
- 6:49Speaker 2: to do when who he's compared against historically with this franchise.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Oh, big time. And Darren Gant, who has seen it all.
- 6:57Speaker 3: I mean, literally every game with the Carolina Panthers. With
- 7:00Speaker 3: the same sunglasses on his head. Asked Jalen Phillips, was
- 7:04Speaker 3: that a Luke Keeley type game? And I'm pretty sure
- 7:07Speaker 3: Darren knows the answer is yes.
- 7:09Speaker 1: It was.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Now, he's got a long way to go to match
- 7:13Speaker 3: Luke's body of work. But, my God, that was a
- 7:16Speaker 3: dominant game. There has been no player bones since they
- 7:19Speaker 3: started tracking sacks. to record eight or more tackles, at
- 7:24Speaker 3: least two interceptions, a pick six and a sack in
- 7:27Speaker 3: a game. Devin Lloyd did that. He had nine tackles.
- 7:31Speaker 3: He had the sack. He had, how about throw the
- 7:34Speaker 3: TFL in on fourth down when he was shot out
- 7:36Speaker 3: of a cannon as well on that end around, two picks,
- 7:39Speaker 3: three passes defensed, a pick six.
- 7:42Speaker 1: It was an absolute masterclass. His combination. He outscored Atlanta. His.
- 7:47Speaker 1: It's true.
- 7:48Speaker 3: His combination bone of like instinctiveness and film study. Like
- 7:54Speaker 3: how much was he reading those slants? How much did
- 7:57Speaker 3: he know where they were going? Which reminds you of
- 8:00Speaker 3: Luke Keekly. But then he also has a burst to
- 8:02Speaker 3: get there that we ain't used to seeing lately in
- 8:04Speaker 3: that linebacker core.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked to Buck about him a number of
- 8:07Speaker 2: times in the offseason, Matt, because of the Jacksonville ties
- 8:11Speaker 2: and one of the first things that Buck brings up
- 8:13Speaker 2: when you read his numbers in Jacksonville recently is playmaker.
- 8:18Speaker 2: This defense has had issues, Matt, this just in, with
- 8:21Speaker 2: turnovers and forcing turnovers. Well, this linebacker isn't just you know,
- 8:25Speaker 2: a tackling machine. He is a playmaking machine, and that
- 8:29Speaker 2: was fully on display yesterday. Big time, man. The ability
- 8:32Speaker 2: to take the ball away. There's been a lot missing
- 8:34Speaker 2: from the defense on linebacker, whether it be in coverage
- 8:37Speaker 2: or whatever, but the ability for this defense to take
- 8:40Speaker 2: the ball away at times has been a problem. Well,
- 8:43Speaker 2: put this guy in the middle there, and my God almighty.
- 8:45Speaker 2: It's going to help big time. Dare I say, my gracious.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Drop it in there, Vern. Yeah, we were 15th in
- 8:51Speaker 2: turnovers force last year.
- 8:52Speaker 1: So, all right. But to your point, we have a
- 8:55Speaker 1: chance to be damn good at it.
- 8:57Speaker 3: I think this year with him there, you also saw,
- 9:02Speaker 3: I got to call him Zachy Wheatley because apparently at
- 9:04Speaker 3: Penn State, they were calling him the wrong name the
- 9:06Speaker 3: entire time, Bone. They called him Zachy Wheatley his whole
- 9:09Speaker 3: college career. In the locker room, they know him as
- 9:11Speaker 3: Zig Wheatley. However you want to say it, the rookie
- 9:15Speaker 3: safety got his first start. He started this football game, Bone,
- 9:18Speaker 3: based on the alignment they were in. And he went
- 9:21Speaker 3: out there and punched a football out. Now, I got
- 9:23Speaker 3: to be honest with you. I'm not sure Cooper Rush
- 9:25Speaker 3: was not down. I'm not sure about that. A matter
- 9:28Speaker 3: of fact, call Tim Brando. He'll probably still argue with
- 9:30Speaker 3: you that he was down. But it doesn't matter, Bone.
- 9:33Speaker 3: They ruled it down. They reviewed it. But Wheatley made
- 9:36Speaker 3: a huge play to punch that football out. It's the
- 9:38Speaker 3: second punch out on the first series for the opposition
- 9:42Speaker 3: so far this season.
- 9:43Speaker 1: Nick Scott pounced on it. He's hurt, unfortunately.
- 9:46Speaker 3: With a rib injury, but so many different guys were
- 9:48Speaker 3: making plays. Lloyd was the star, but so many different guys, Bowen,
- 9:52Speaker 3: were making plays on defense. Although I will point out,
- 9:54Speaker 3: Devin Lloyd made plays, was involved in three of the
- 9:58Speaker 3: five turnovers because he didn't just have his own two.
- 10:01Speaker 3: He also read the slant early, broke it up, and
- 10:05Speaker 3: Okereke picked it off. So he was involved in all
- 10:09Speaker 3: three of those.
- 10:10Speaker 2: Matt, there's an early theme on the text line here
- 10:13Speaker 2: of those praising Sir Fiddy Marwell. who on Friday went
- 10:18Speaker 2: three scores galore, and by God, he got it.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Oh, look at you. I didn't even think about that.
- 10:24Speaker 3: Finney with the unprecedented three-score galore hit.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Three-score galore, as we call it sometimes. Finney, my man,
- 10:32Speaker 2: you have inspired me. I might start going three-score galore
- 10:35Speaker 2: again at some point.
- 10:36Speaker 1: Let's do it, Ben.
- 10:37Speaker 5: I think because I've already got my bold prediction of
- 10:40Speaker 5: what they'll do Sunday at Cleveland.
- 10:43Speaker 1: Ready to go.
- 10:43Speaker 2: They're calling you Fitty the God right now on.
- 10:45Speaker 1: The text line.
- 10:46Speaker 5: Devoted listener Monroe Lair was texting me yesterday wanting to
- 10:50Speaker 5: make sure that you clowns gave me the praise that
- 10:53Speaker 5: I rightfully earned because I was the one that believed
- 10:57Speaker 5: the most. We all three thought Carolina was going to win.
- 11:01Speaker 5: But I was the one that believed the most we
- 11:03Speaker 5: do what good football teams do. Get on the road
- 11:06Speaker 5: and beat a bad football team's ass.
- 11:08Speaker 1: And that's what we did. One of your Carolinas won.
- 11:10Speaker 1: That's what we did.
- 11:12Speaker 5: The only Carolina. One team, two states. The only Carolina
- 11:17Speaker 5: that matters on this show.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I think it's two states, one team.
- 11:20Speaker 2: We got some, we got some college football wounds on
- 11:22Speaker 2: this show this weekend.
- 11:23Speaker 1: We got to handle here at some point.
- 11:24Speaker 3: That's what Tuesday is for. And you know what? No,
- 11:27Speaker 3: that's actually what 625 is for. I don't understand this garbage.
- 11:31Speaker 5: The Panthers win a game by 31 and you want
- 11:34Speaker 5: to 625 when you get the negativity, you are a
- 11:36Speaker 5: miserable ass.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Let's just, are you new here?
- 11:39Speaker 3: We talk, we talk Panthers in the opening segment, six
- 11:42Speaker 3: 25 is college football. I can't help what happened to
- 11:46Speaker 3: your damn team after, after, after the weather.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Maybe I'll just call it weather delay right now.
- 11:50Speaker 3: Postpone the show. I'm so over weather delays. Don't say
- 11:53Speaker 3: that phrase. I am so over college with weather day,
- 11:56Speaker 3: but let's get back to the Panthers here y'all because
- 11:58Speaker 3: somehow Fitty, you made it about yourself and we should
- 12:00Speaker 3: have been talking Panthers the whole time.
- 12:02Speaker 1: It's my week, baby. It's my week.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Congratulations. It wasn't your Saturday. That was included in the week.
- 12:08Speaker 3: Can we talk more about the Panthers, please?
- 12:10Speaker 1: My goodness.
- 12:11Speaker 2: Hell.
- 12:12Speaker 3: All right. So what else stuck out? You mentioned XL.
- 12:17Speaker 3: Got to give the dude some love, man. Now, I'm
- 12:19Speaker 3: not going to lie to you, Bone. That was the
- 12:21Speaker 3: most nerve wracking ball in the air situation in my life.
- 12:26Speaker 3: I I'm watching it. And as it's in the air,
- 12:30Speaker 3: Mac jr. Is like, is he going to catch it?
- 12:33Speaker 1: I don't know. Oh crap.
- 12:35Speaker 3: And my God, did he not? I feel like he
- 12:37Speaker 3: probably could have stayed on his feet, ran in for
- 12:39Speaker 3: a touchdown. I think he was so concerned about, about
- 12:41Speaker 3: making sure he cradled it. and caught it, pulled it
- 12:45Speaker 3: into the body. We know he loves that. Then I
- 12:47Speaker 3: feel like he kind of made himself go down, but
- 12:50Speaker 3: I don't give a damn. That's a 55 yard catch
- 12:55Speaker 3: on a two minute drill drive. That was money. Didn't
- 12:58Speaker 3: see many like that last year. And that we really
- 13:01Speaker 3: could have used. When we just gave up the Atlanta
- 13:03Speaker 3: drive for three points, it was a great response, man.
- 13:06Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you look at the stat sheet, and
- 13:08Speaker 2: then you see what Coker and T-Mac did. But when
- 13:11Speaker 2: you factor in, we get with 64 total yards, Waller's touchdowns,
- 13:16Speaker 2: just the overall balance of what that team can now
- 13:20Speaker 2: do offensively. Mac, what do you think XL was saying
- 13:23Speaker 2: during that long ball-in-the-air sequence? What was he saying to himself? Oh,
- 13:29Speaker 2: my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh,
- 13:31Speaker 2: my God. Grab that leg as a squirrel, man. Grab
- 13:33Speaker 2: that leg as a squirrel for dinner, man. Yeah, I
- 13:36Speaker 2: don't know, but God bless him for catching it. He
- 13:39Speaker 2: ended up with two for 64. Bryce spread it around
- 13:42Speaker 2: to eight different guys. Bryce got the ball downfield again.
- 13:46Speaker 2: It ain't dink and dunk city like it has been
- 13:48Speaker 2: with Bryce too much in the pass bone. He is
- 13:51Speaker 2: airing it out five of seven on deep passes yesterday.
- 13:55Speaker 2: He has now completed eight deep passes yesterday. through two games.
- 13:59Speaker 2: He has completed now, he was 8 of 12 on
- 14:01Speaker 2: 10 yards or more. He has completed now 17 passes, Bone,
- 14:06Speaker 2: of 10 yards or more. To give you some context,
- 14:08Speaker 2: last year he averaged just over four a game. They are,
- 14:12Speaker 2: Brad Idzik is pushing it downfield. And I'm not going
- 14:14Speaker 2: to lie to you.
- 14:15Speaker 3: Brad Idzik had me yelling at my TV a little
- 14:17Speaker 3: bit early in the first half because they were so
- 14:20Speaker 3: heavily slanted towards the pass. Like I gotta, I gotta
- 14:23Speaker 3: tell you, I'm not sure Brad Idzik wants to trifle
- 14:26Speaker 3: with the damn running game. Sometimes, especially in the first
- 14:29Speaker 3: half of these two games, bone, they had thrown it.
- 14:32Speaker 3: I think 13 of the first 17, 11 of the
- 14:35Speaker 3: first 13. And I really kind of wanted to see
- 14:38Speaker 3: him run it a little bit more. And against a
- 14:41Speaker 3: better opponent, Bone, you might get burned if your offense
- 14:44Speaker 3: has some of those empty series and stuff like that.
- 14:47Speaker 3: But my God, he's aggressive. Bryce Young's average distance of
- 14:50Speaker 3: target over 10 yards, yards per attempt, eight yards. These
- 14:53Speaker 3: are very aggressive. encouraging numbers for Bryce. He's, he's pushing
- 14:58Speaker 3: it downfield.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Yeah. Tied for first and passing touchdown, second and passing yards,
- 15:02Speaker 2: fifth and rating third and yards per attempt. Who would
- 15:05Speaker 2: have thought, Matt, that the two leading passers in the
- 15:07Speaker 2: NFL would come right now from the NFC South. Oh man.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Shuck and Bryce Young are headed to a, like a, L.A.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Marino-like showdown at some point.
- 15:16Speaker 3: Oh, hell yeah, baby. The NFC air, baby. All we
- 15:20Speaker 3: do is throw it. Except the two other teams in
- 15:22Speaker 3: the division. I mean, my God, the quarterback play, we
- 15:26Speaker 3: must say, for Atlanta was horrid, and they were booing
- 15:29Speaker 3: Cooper Rush from the start. They were treating Jack Strand
- 15:32Speaker 3: like they had John Elway on the bench. They had
- 15:35Speaker 3: signs printed up for him and everything. He got in there,
- 15:37Speaker 3: looked just like damn Cooper Rush. I mean, I got
- 15:40Speaker 3: to tell you, the glee I was taking. and how
- 15:43Speaker 3: badly we were beating them, and how horrible they are.
- 15:46Speaker 3: And it ain't going to get any better. In the
- 15:48Speaker 3: words of Prince Lee, we shut them out 30 to
- 15:51Speaker 3: nothing when they had Pennix. Did you read that from
- 15:53Speaker 3: Darren Gant? I didn't see that. Darren Gant or Cassie,
- 15:55Speaker 3: I don't know which one it was, but Panthers.com, the
- 15:58Speaker 3: rapid reactions, they said some reporter, I don't know who
- 16:01Speaker 3: it was, one of the reporters was asking Jalen Phillips, like, is...
- 16:07Speaker 3: Does it take a little bit of way that you
- 16:08Speaker 3: did it against Cooper Rush? And Prince Lee's interrupted and said, man,
- 16:13Speaker 3: we did. We beat him 30 to nothing with Pennix
- 16:15Speaker 3: last year.
- 16:16Speaker 1: That's true. Oh, God, we own this team.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Nothing summed up the day like that attempted throw to Dotson,
- 16:21Speaker 2: who was wide open on the sidelines. I mean, he
- 16:23Speaker 2: would have gone in for what? Like a 60, 70 yard.
- 16:26Speaker 2: There's no one near him. And the ball was so
- 16:28Speaker 2: underthrown that Willie wouldn't even near him.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Willie got double moved in that situation. Youngster.
- 16:35Speaker 3: How the hell you let someone get behind you in
- 16:37Speaker 3: that situation? But it didn't stop for him to seatbelt celebrate.
- 16:41Speaker 1: No, it didn't.
- 16:43Speaker 3: But anyway, yeah, it was a get right game in
- 16:47Speaker 3: many ways, but nothing's guaranteed in this league.
- 16:49Speaker 1: And I don't know about y'all.
- 16:51Speaker 3: I have seen plenty of Scrubino quarterbacks toast the Carolina
- 16:54Speaker 3: Panthers over the years, including Cooper Rush himself. So I'm sorry.
- 16:58Speaker 3: I'll take it. It was dominant. It wasn't unconvincing. It
- 17:01Speaker 3: was very convincing. So I'll freaking take it, man. And
- 17:04Speaker 3: now we head to Cleveland where they did us a
- 17:06Speaker 3: favor yesterday where they beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Baker
- 17:11Speaker 3: Mayfield had some rough throws in this game, including missing
- 17:13Speaker 3: the open receiver in the end zone to end this
- 17:16Speaker 3: game on fourth down bone. He had himself a rough
- 17:19Speaker 3: day and I am here for it. And Deshaun Watson
- 17:22Speaker 3: somehow had a good day yesterday bone. And I think we,
- 17:26Speaker 3: I think we now can say Deshaun Watson will be starting.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Next week, right? There's no way they bench him now.
- 17:33Speaker 2: No.
- 17:33Speaker 1: After, after that game.
- 17:34Speaker 2: And I couldn't come up any better for the Panthers
- 17:36Speaker 2: in that whole scenario yesterday, bucks lose Watson's going to play.
- 17:39Speaker 1: And that's what we wanted yesterday.
- 17:41Speaker 3: So, yeah, I'm kind of glad Watson's going to start too,
- 17:45Speaker 3: because I think if you force mistakes out of him,
- 17:49Speaker 3: Those fans will go berserk on him. It could be
- 17:51Speaker 3: the second straight week bone where the fans are relentlessly
- 17:55Speaker 3: booing their quarterback against us.
- 17:57Speaker 8: Yes.
- 17:58Speaker 2: I know you tweeted about this lady yesterday, but I
- 18:01Speaker 2: found the video last night. of the Falcons fan going
- 18:04Speaker 2: into halftime that was booing her team and trying to
- 18:07Speaker 2: show them where the locker room was. With like a dog,
- 18:11Speaker 2: the bounty hunter style kind of hairdo. Someone called her
- 18:15Speaker 2: Marlboro Reds on a tweet there. I put up the
- 18:19Speaker 2: video at team on WFNZ. If you don't get joy
- 18:21Speaker 2: out of this video, then you don't want joy in
- 18:23Speaker 2: your life. I love that lady's misery, man.
- 18:26Speaker 1: I do. Trying to show them where the locker room is.
- 18:29Speaker 1: Get out.
- 18:31Speaker 3: I think she was like, get out of here. I
- 18:33Speaker 3: don't think she wanted him to come back. Do need
- 18:36Speaker 3: to mention the Saints were tied with the Saints. Saints
- 18:38Speaker 3: did beat the Ravens, scored the last 14 in this game.
- 18:41Speaker 3: They trailed early by a couple of scores and they
- 18:44Speaker 3: did rally in Baltimore. They definitely deserve credit for the win.
- 18:47Speaker 3: Although I will say this, I don't think Tyler Shuck
- 18:49Speaker 3: was in the end zone. On the fourth down sneak.
- 18:52Speaker 3: They stuffed him on a third down sneak. I don't
- 18:55Speaker 3: believe he was in the end zone. Now, I will
- 18:57Speaker 3: say this. They missed one of the most blatant face
- 18:59Speaker 3: masks you will ever see in your life. Somebody on
- 19:02Speaker 3: the Ravens bone grabbed the face. Well, then again, the
- 19:05Speaker 3: one against Princely was pretty blatant by Jake Matthews yesterday, too.
- 19:09Speaker 3: I thought his head spun around Exorcist style. But some
- 19:12Speaker 3: dude yanked Sean. That had to hurt. But they got
- 19:18Speaker 3: a gift touchdown. They missed a penalty there, but that
- 19:20Speaker 3: was a gift touchdown.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Feels like way early, but a little separation between the
- 19:24Speaker 2: Saints and Panthers and what they are right now and
- 19:27Speaker 2: the other two teams. Saints, Shuck and Olave are also...
- 19:30Speaker 2: completely insane from the first half on of after they
- 19:34Speaker 2: had zero points against the lions in the first game
- 19:36Speaker 2: but really since then the saints i mean look we
- 19:39Speaker 2: don't like them but credit where it's due they've been
- 19:41Speaker 2: impressive the first couple games and.
- 19:42Speaker 3: It needs to be mentioned the chiefs are back uh
- 19:45Speaker 3: they are winning these overtime games where it probably drives
- 19:48Speaker 3: the national audience crazy They are back winning those close
- 19:53Speaker 3: games where the old country bone is rooting against them
- 19:56Speaker 3: and rooting against Taylor Swift cutaway shots. Was that I
- 20:00Speaker 3: got to tell you, though, I know y'all ain't going
- 20:02Speaker 3: to back me on this, but that was an adorable
- 20:04Speaker 3: moment when Taylor Swift reacted to Kelsey's touchdown by yelling,
- 20:07Speaker 3: that's my husband and pointing to her ring.
- 20:09Speaker 1: That's an adorable, heartwarming moment, y'all.
- 20:12Speaker 2: That's what Finney's future wife is going to yell towards
- 20:15Speaker 2: him one day when he's out there at the over
- 20:18Speaker 2: 40 church league.
- 20:19Speaker 1: Victory dances. Should be showing all her girlfriends. That's my husband.
- 20:24Speaker 1: We're still good, right, Fit? Look at him go. We're
- 20:26Speaker 1: still good, right, Fit? Oh, heck yeah.
- 20:28Speaker 5: All right.
- 20:28Speaker 1: That's what I like to hear.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Heck yeah. What wasn't good was a lot of the
- 20:31Speaker 2: college football stuff locally this weekend. The Heels State and
- 20:35Speaker 2: the Gamecocks all blow leads. App with the win. Wig
- 20:38Speaker 2: with an attaboy. And, man, sad to see a tough
- 20:42Speaker 2: loss for old Lano and LSU. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 21:03Speaker 2: on their heels.
- 21:05Speaker 6: And it did that turnover what a huge stop by
- 21:09Speaker 6: the wolfpack defense.
- 21:10Speaker 3: And cj bailey has six seconds to burn here bailey.
- 21:16Speaker 1: Is tackled with the ball.
- 21:18Speaker 7: The ball came out and vanderbilt recovered the football And
- 21:28Speaker 7: Daniels throws the fumble, and Vanderbilt has won it.
- 21:32Speaker 2: What?
- 21:33Speaker 1: The game is not over. The game is not over.
- 21:35Speaker 4: The game is not over.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Oh, my God. State going to state, y'all.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Was that not the biggest bunch of Wolfpack bleep you
- 21:45Speaker 3: have ever witnessed in your entire godforsaken life? If you
- 21:50Speaker 3: are a Wolfpack fan, my God, I feel for you.
- 21:54Speaker 3: That was unbelievable. First of all, they're up 17, nothing bone.
- 21:59Speaker 3: And they have a fourth and seven where they don't
- 22:02Speaker 3: want to kick the field goal, 48 yard field goal
- 22:04Speaker 3: to make it a six point game. I guess I
- 22:05Speaker 3: understand it. They throw the ball to this Locklear kid
- 22:08Speaker 3: who I believe is a walk-on. Why the hell is
- 22:11Speaker 3: he the target? Why is he even in the game
- 22:13Speaker 3: on fourth and seven with the game on the line?
- 22:16Speaker 3: And Bailey put it there. and you need someone to
- 22:20Speaker 3: make a contested catch how about the guy who had
- 22:22Speaker 3: nine catches 102 yards and three touchdowns keenan jackson how
- 22:26Speaker 3: about maybe you give him a chance to make a
- 22:28Speaker 3: contested catch that was annoying but then you had barnhart
- 22:32Speaker 3: i thought saving the day with the interception because i
- 22:35Speaker 3: thought for sure they were losing and i thought right
- 22:37Speaker 3: there that was going to be a very state loss
- 22:39Speaker 3: Blow a 17-point game, do so many things well, but
- 22:43Speaker 3: you blow the lead. You had a 17-point lead in
- 22:45Speaker 3: the first and the second halves, and you just blow it.
- 22:47Speaker 3: But no, Barnhart, I thought, saved the day. And then
- 22:51Speaker 3: one of the dumbest plays I have ever seen in
- 22:54Speaker 3: my life, Bone, when there are about 10 different options
- 22:59Speaker 3: of what you can do there. Run out the back
- 23:01Speaker 3: of the end zone, take the safety. Run around, get
- 23:05Speaker 3: outside the pocket, throw it up in the air. I mean,
- 23:09Speaker 3: or just as I.
- 23:10Speaker 2: Go straight Orwaski and just run away from the field.
- 23:13Speaker 2: Throw yourself on the ground. Don't throw yourself into a tackler.
- 23:17Speaker 2: I could, I- I still can't believe it. It's one
- 23:20Speaker 2: of the most jaw-dropping, shocking plays we have ever seen.
- 23:24Speaker 1: You talk about.
- 23:25Speaker 2: And it consumed the football world, Mac, where every person
- 23:28Speaker 2: in college football was talking about it. NFL Today yesterday,
- 23:31Speaker 2: because they have state alums Bill Cowher and Russell Wilson
- 23:34Speaker 2: on the set, they started breaking it down yesterday. That thing, Mac,
- 23:37Speaker 2: transcended our normal Wolfpack bleep world and went... national and
- 23:43Speaker 2: international over the weekend. And it's a very NC State
- 23:47Speaker 2: thing for it to happen, Mac, not just the play,
- 23:49Speaker 2: but the fact that the whole lead up to it.
- 23:52Speaker 2: Like they had Vanderbilt vulnerable. They had them down. They
- 23:55Speaker 2: blow the game, which is probably problem number one, how
- 23:58Speaker 2: they let Vanderbilt hang around and how it got to
- 24:00Speaker 2: that point.
- 24:01Speaker 1: And I get it.
- 24:02Speaker 2: It's instincts, I guess, for a player when he sees
- 24:04Speaker 2: a rush to maybe move out of the way. But
- 24:06Speaker 2: all you got to do, man, is like you said,
- 24:08Speaker 2: is just the one thing you couldn't do. The very
- 24:11Speaker 2: one thing you could not do was put the ball
- 24:14Speaker 2: on the ground. You could put yourself on the ground.
- 24:16Speaker 2: The one thing that you couldn't do was put the
- 24:19Speaker 2: football on the ground. And that would have been a
- 24:22Speaker 2: big win for Dave Dorn. They talked on the broadcast.
- 24:25Speaker 2: Taylor Zarzer was talking about the historical numbers that we
- 24:28Speaker 2: brought up last week of Dorn versus the SEC. Vanderbilt
- 24:31Speaker 2: is no longer... a team that you say, oh, it's
- 24:34Speaker 2: just Vanderbilt. They're a pretty good program right now under
- 24:36Speaker 2: Clark Lee.
- 24:37Speaker 1: It was all there.
- 24:38Speaker 2: But now you factor in, Mac, how they started out
- 24:41Speaker 2: the season, not prepared for Virginia. Then Vanderbilt seemed like, okay,
- 24:45Speaker 2: a little get-back moment here for the Pack. They're starting
- 24:48Speaker 2: to find themselves. But now you talk about not just
- 24:52Speaker 2: the fact that they lost to Vanderbilt, but that's one
- 24:54Speaker 2: of those losses where– That could be felt for a
- 24:58Speaker 2: long time for young people, how you blow that game.
- 25:00Speaker 3: I mean, my Lord, as if we needed something to
- 25:02Speaker 3: jumpstart the fire Dave Doran up again, that did it. Now,
- 25:06Speaker 3: Dave Doran after the game was interesting because... After the game, he,
- 25:12Speaker 3: I guess we can play the clip here. I'm sure
- 25:13Speaker 3: we'll play it multiple times bone because it is required.
- 25:16Speaker 3: An explanation is required. And I cannot believe CJ Bailey
- 25:20Speaker 3: did it as a third year starting quarterback. I just,
- 25:22Speaker 3: I cannot believe the experience he had and the fact
- 25:24Speaker 3: that he did that knuckleheaded crap. Um, but Dave Doran explaining,
- 25:30Speaker 3: you're going to hear at the end of this answer,
- 25:32Speaker 3: his explanation for what CJ Bailey was told. It sounds
- 25:39Speaker 3: like C.J. Bailey is probably to blame here, but y'all
- 25:45Speaker 3: can figure it out.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Listen to this.
- 25:47Speaker 8: When you hit the last play, was it a long
- 25:50Speaker 8: time when you got the ball to try to run
- 25:51Speaker 8: it out and run around in.
- 25:52Speaker 1: The end zone?
- 25:52Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it's just a play where you roll
- 25:54Speaker 6: out and you don't get tackled. You try to burn
- 25:57Speaker 6: as much time as you can and then fall on
- 25:59Speaker 6: the ground and protect the football. And you got hit,
- 26:02Speaker 6: and you didn't protect the football.
- 26:03Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:04Speaker 6: The plan was to take a safety. We're trying to
- 26:07Speaker 6: run out the clock if we can, but.
- 26:10Speaker 8: There's no intent to run the football and get hit.
- 26:12Speaker 4: On that play.
- 26:13Speaker 3: So it sounds what Dorn told him is run around,
- 26:18Speaker 3: kill as much time as you can, but do not
- 26:20Speaker 3: get hit. Basically you, somebody's about to hit you. You
- 26:24Speaker 3: get yourself down on the ground and you could see bone.
- 26:27Speaker 3: He's looking around like, Oh, I can kill more time here.
- 26:31Speaker 3: But then he allows himself to take the hit. That's
- 26:34Speaker 3: one thing.
- 26:34Speaker 1: Then how do you allow yourself to give that ball up?
- 26:37Speaker 1: How do you allow yourself to fumble it on a hit?
- 26:39Speaker 1: If you're going to take it, it's just, it's just
- 26:41Speaker 1: so crazy to me.
- 26:43Speaker 3: And NC state fans have already been tortured enough.
- 26:45Speaker 1: And now you add this one to the lore.
- 26:48Speaker 2: Maggie, it's a fascinating thing to discuss because one text here, 704-5709-610,
- 26:54Speaker 2: puts 100% on Bailey. The very next text puts 100%
- 26:58Speaker 2: on Dave Norton. So everyone's got their own different opinions.
- 27:02Speaker 2: I will say, too, C.J. Bailey did not meet the
- 27:05Speaker 2: media after the game also, which is a whole other
- 27:08Speaker 2: thing there.
- 27:09Speaker 3: I mean, if Doran's story is true, it sounds like
- 27:11Speaker 3: it's Bailey's fault. I personally prefer the old run around,
- 27:16Speaker 3: run around, run around, duck out the back of the
- 27:17Speaker 3: end zone.
- 27:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 27:18Speaker 1: That's the way, like, you'll see it done with punters
- 27:20Speaker 1: a lot. Safest option.
- 27:21Speaker 3: Like, and I thought they were going to do it
- 27:22Speaker 3: with their punter, but I guess they didn't even want
- 27:24Speaker 3: to bother long snapping it.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Right.
- 27:26Speaker 3: But like, that's what I prefer is just run around,
- 27:28Speaker 3: kill time. Can I kill all of it? Duck out
- 27:30Speaker 3: of the end zone. If there's any time left, then
- 27:32Speaker 3: you got to do the kick or the punter, whatever
- 27:34Speaker 3: post safety, but you're still up a point. And then
- 27:36Speaker 3: you've got to cover the kick or the punt. But, like,
- 27:38Speaker 3: I just– that was– I've never seen that before in
- 27:40Speaker 3: my life. Somebody's like, yeah, just take this hit. It
- 27:43Speaker 3: was crazy. But that wasn't the only blown lead. Blown
- 27:46Speaker 3: leads in the Carolinas were a thing on Saturday because
- 27:50Speaker 3: State blew a 17-point lead. Your Gamecocks blew a 16-point lead.
- 27:55Speaker 3: And the Tar Heels, was it– 14-50 or 11? Was
- 28:00Speaker 3: it 17-3-50?
- 28:01Speaker 1: Did it get to 17-3? I didn't know if it
- 28:03Speaker 1: was 14-3 or 17-3. I thought it was 17-3. So
- 28:04Speaker 1: they blew a 14-point lead then. Correct. Okay.
- 28:07Speaker 3: I mean, it was, my God, pumped or pissed. That's
- 28:11Speaker 3: why I said, but we might need two pumped or
- 28:13Speaker 3: pissed segments.
- 28:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Because the amount of fan bases that can be pissed
- 28:16Speaker 3: off is astronomical.
- 28:18Speaker 1: Well, it should be two pissed segments. Who the hell's
- 28:21Speaker 1: pumped today? App fans? App fans?
- 28:24Speaker 3: I don't even think Clemson fans really are. Duke fans?
- 28:27Speaker 1: Duke fans, definitely. Nate Shepard's throwing out Heisman poses.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Dude, there's a lot of wins, I think, on that
- 28:32Speaker 3: Duke schedule. A lot of wins. But we ain't talking
- 28:35Speaker 3: about that right now. We're talking about blown leads.
- 28:37Speaker 1: All right, blown leads.
- 28:38Speaker 3: The Gamecocks messed this game up, Bone, when they were
- 28:42Speaker 3: only up 16-0. It should have been more than that.
- 28:45Speaker 3: They kicked three field goals and got one touchdown with
- 28:48Speaker 3: all that possession inside Mississippi State territory. You cannot allow
- 28:54Speaker 3: a dude like Mario Taylor and that offense to hang around.
- 28:57Speaker 1: You need to bury them.
- 29:00Speaker 2: You and I argued on Friday about this game, and
- 29:02Speaker 2: I said, this feels like one where I'd come in
- 29:04Speaker 2: on Monday, and I would say, Mac, what happened?
- 29:07Speaker 1: And I was— You were so cocky, man. Pun intended.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Can I finish the statement there? All right. Settle down.
- 29:15Speaker 1: I'm giving you credit here. You were a thousand percent, right?
- 29:18Speaker 1: I was wrong.
- 29:19Speaker 2: And I am now exhausted of defending Beamer waiting for
- 29:24Speaker 2: sellers to be the quarterback. We thought he could be,
- 29:26Speaker 2: he's not getting any better through two horrible interceptions. I
- 29:29Speaker 2: really ultimately ended the chance in the game. Momentum wise,
- 29:34Speaker 2: killed those two drives. Shane Beamer to me, I've defended
- 29:37Speaker 2: him till the, till the, the cows come home. I'm
- 29:41Speaker 2: out on defending Beamer. I'm out on waiting on Sellers
- 29:44Speaker 2: to be a star. I hope maybe he turns a corner,
- 29:47Speaker 2: but it's been multiple OCs. There's no excuses right now
- 29:51Speaker 2: for having some of the mistakes he still has. I
- 29:53Speaker 2: don't know where the running went, Mac, with Sellers. The
- 29:55Speaker 2: design runs. Even Mac, when he gets in the open
- 29:57Speaker 2: field now, he kind of ducks out of bounds. Remember
- 29:59Speaker 2: that game against Clemson two years ago when he was
- 30:02Speaker 2: dragging ball carriers?
- 30:03Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 30:04Speaker 2: This is Tim Tebow. This guy is taking on everybody.
- 30:07Speaker 2: I don't see him taking on defenders. I see him
- 30:09Speaker 2: skirting out of bounds now, getting out of the way
- 30:11Speaker 2: of contact. I don't know what's going on there. Shane Beamer,
- 30:14Speaker 2: to me, is nothing more right now than a peppier
- 30:17Speaker 2: version of what Will Muschamp was. You have completely abandoned
- 30:22Speaker 2: these boys. He has coached 41 games in the SEC.
- 30:25Speaker 2: He has won 16. And here's the problem. And I
- 30:27Speaker 2: said it at the time when I knew it was
- 30:29Speaker 2: going to be a problem. At the end of last year,
- 30:31Speaker 2: Beamer did a presser where he got up there and
- 30:33Speaker 2: he promised all these things, how good they're going to be.
- 30:36Speaker 2: I forget the exact words, but it was about the playoffs.
- 30:38Speaker 2: It was about their program, where they're headed. You made
- 30:41Speaker 2: all these promises, and I'm not taking away from who
- 30:44Speaker 2: they lost to because that's an emerging team, but that
- 30:46Speaker 2: was one. You had them down. It's how you lost.
- 30:49Speaker 2: You had them down. And now all those toss-up games
- 30:51Speaker 2: we talked about, Florida, yeah, look pretty good, don't they? Kentucky, oh,
- 30:56Speaker 2: by the way, looks pretty good. Tennessee's going to be tough.
- 30:59Speaker 2: all of a sudden you had to have that game
- 31:01Speaker 2: and it's just par for the course for what this
- 31:03Speaker 2: program has been. There's hope, but you never see them
- 31:08Speaker 2: meet those expectations that we put on them. I look,
- 31:11Speaker 2: I hope they go on some miracle run here. I
- 31:13Speaker 2: just don't know how it's going to happen right now.
- 31:15Speaker 3: They were they outscored Mississippi State 16. Oh, they then
- 31:20Speaker 3: gave up 41 of the next 48 points. That is insane.
- 31:25Speaker 3: I personally think Mississippi State is pretty damn good. Like
- 31:28Speaker 3: I think Mario Taylor, again, I said it on Friday.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I think he's an NFL star.
- 31:32Speaker 1: In the future. That may be dumb.
- 31:36Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 31:36Speaker 1: We'll see.
- 31:37Speaker 3: But, like, I think he is that freaking good. The
- 31:40Speaker 3: kid Evans is amazing. Fluff Bothwell is not just a
- 31:44Speaker 3: great name. He's a good running back. So, like, I just–
- 31:48Speaker 3: I'm not as down.
- 31:49Speaker 1: I mean, it's horrible. It's how they lost. It's how
- 31:52Speaker 1: they lost.
- 31:53Speaker 3: But, like– I honestly think if you were to tell
- 31:56Speaker 3: me they push Alabama this week and have a chance
- 31:58Speaker 3: to win late, like, I wouldn't think it's crazy.
- 32:01Speaker 2: The thing about it is, yeah, Mississippi State's good. I
- 32:04Speaker 2: don't disagree with that. But guess what? So are most
- 32:06Speaker 2: of the teams here on out. When do they– South
- 32:09Speaker 2: Carolina's also supposed to be good as well.
- 32:12Speaker 1: They had them down.
- 32:13Speaker 2: That's the problem. They had a good team down. They
- 32:15Speaker 2: were dominating Camario. They were playing well. And it's– how
- 32:19Speaker 2: do you go from– As good as you looked early
- 32:23Speaker 2: to fans leaving the stands on TV early fourth quarter
- 32:27Speaker 2: when the game was only an eight point game. It
- 32:29Speaker 2: was such a weird game of dominance to just basically
- 32:33Speaker 2: getting blown out by the end of it.
- 32:35Speaker 3: I noticed Fitty is loving these conversations over there because
- 32:38Speaker 3: Fitty hasn't gotten his yet. The Carolina was up 17-3,
- 32:43Speaker 3: I guess we have determined in the first half of
- 32:46Speaker 3: that game. Joe and Raleigh says the weather did us
- 32:49Speaker 3: in as a Tar Heel fan. It's funny you mention that, Joe.
- 32:52Speaker 3: Clemson's playing in the same weather, by the way. Well,
- 32:54Speaker 3: the weather delay. That's the big thing. Fitty had a
- 32:57Speaker 3: whole thing yesterday, Bone. Fitty wants to blame the National
- 33:00Speaker 3: Weather Service. I think he thinks Dabo and the National
- 33:02Speaker 3: Weather Service are in cahoots.
- 33:05Speaker 1: I don't understand.
- 33:07Speaker 3: I thought Carolina should have gone for it on the
- 33:12Speaker 3: fourth down near the goal line and not kick the
- 33:14Speaker 3: field goal.
- 33:16Speaker 1: After the weather delay.
- 33:17Speaker 3: And I also thought they should have ran the football
- 33:21Speaker 3: on the fourth and one near midfield where Edwards misses
- 33:24Speaker 3: Thurman down the field. Now, Kyle Bailey showed me an
- 33:28Speaker 3: angle of a replay yesterday, bone during one of our
- 33:31Speaker 3: breaks and Edwards could have thrown that ball sooner and hit.
- 33:35Speaker 3: I was really disappointed in Edwards as solid as he
- 33:38Speaker 3: looked in the Dublin game and the first two weeks, uh,
- 33:42Speaker 3: When Clemson got pressure on him, his feet got happy, pitter-patter, pitter-patter,
- 33:46Speaker 3: and he really seemed bothered by it. He was disappointing.
- 33:51Speaker 3: But Carolina ran the hell out of the football, I
- 33:53Speaker 3: will say that.
- 33:55Speaker 1: Fiddy, you were losing momentum, a little momentum before the
- 33:58Speaker 1: delay also. Definitely, definitely. Clemson's offense was starting to figure
- 34:00Speaker 1: some things out there.
- 34:01Speaker 3: But Fiddy thinks that they were going to punch it
- 34:03Speaker 3: in because they kind of got the momentum back.
- 34:06Speaker 2: It felt like. Fiddy's pro-lightning, I guess. He wants the
- 34:08Speaker 2: guys out there while there's lightning going on.
- 34:10Speaker 5: Hey, look, all I'm saying is, is that there were
- 34:12Speaker 5: multiple people that said they could have finished the game
- 34:15Speaker 5: before the weather got there. Mac, I'm not going to
- 34:19Speaker 5: use it as an excuse. You're putting too many words
- 34:22Speaker 5: in my mouth. I did not blame the National Weather Service.
- 34:25Speaker 1: You said you did a whole study of Clemson weather delays.
- 34:27Speaker 1: I was sent. How they play after the weather delay.
- 34:30Speaker 1: You literally do not listen. And then you said. You
- 34:32Speaker 1: don't listen to save your freaking life, dude. I was
- 34:35Speaker 1: sent research.
- 34:37Speaker 5: By a Carolina fan. It was not weatherman Mark. I
- 34:43Speaker 5: was just relaying the information to you of the history
- 34:47Speaker 5: of weather delays in that stadium and how it correlates
- 34:49Speaker 5: to when Clemson is either tied or losing to a team.
- 34:52Speaker 3: And then you went on to say they could, that
- 34:53Speaker 3: the weather was fine. They could have finished the game.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Which people in the damn stadium, Matt, said the same thing.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Not just me making that up. I'm saying don't back
- 35:05Speaker 3: down from what you were whining about yesterday.
- 35:07Speaker 1: Don't back down from it.
- 35:08Speaker 5: What I was most disappointed in was, Mac, we had
- 35:12Speaker 5: two hours to adjust to what Clemson did well offensively.
- 35:17Speaker 5: The final drive of the first half up until the
- 35:20Speaker 5: weather delay. And we came out, and there was no adjustments.
- 35:24Speaker 5: We still looked worn down. We still couldn't tackle. We
- 35:28Speaker 5: still couldn't get off blocks. I had no problem kicking
- 35:30Speaker 5: the field goal. Make Clemson have to score a touchdown
- 35:33Speaker 5: to beat you. That made sense to me.
- 35:35Speaker 1: And they did in about five plays. But they did that,
- 35:37Speaker 1: and they did it with such ease. That, to me,
- 35:40Speaker 1: what was frustrating is what happened.
- 35:42Speaker 5: In those two hours, because Dabo Sweeney, Chad Morris, that
- 35:46Speaker 5: brain trust. Dabo, yeah, they out-coached y'all. They out-coached Bill Belichick,
- 35:50Speaker 5: Brian Belichick, and our brain trust.
- 35:52Speaker 1: They did.
- 35:52Speaker 3: It needs to be pointed out, Bone, App beat Charlotte 26-21.
- 35:56Speaker 3: Charlotte with a couple late touchdowns. They were down 19
- 35:59Speaker 3: early in the fourth. A Charlotte fan, very well said
- 36:02Speaker 3: by you. Hey, at least we didn't blow a lead.
- 36:06Speaker 1: That's a good point. Touche.
- 36:08Speaker 2: And Lane Kiffin, we coming for you at some point, baby.
- 36:11Speaker 2: What a heartbreaking loss that had to be. And it's,
- 36:15Speaker 2: I'm wondering, Trinidad Chambliss looks like the best quarterback in
- 36:18Speaker 2: the country. He dominated that game. Man, you've got to
- 36:22Speaker 2: be a dumb coach to leave him, don't you? Yeah,
- 36:24Speaker 2: who would do such a thing? How about that, Lano?
- 36:27Speaker 3: Grass ain't always greener on the other side because Sam
- 36:29Speaker 3: Levitt missed a wide-open tight end for a touchdown.
- 36:32Speaker 1: He did. On that last series.
- 36:33Speaker 2: Also, shouts to Wake for a pretty tremendous effort the
- 36:37Speaker 2: other day against a juggernaut in Miami's offense. Wake Forest,
- 36:40Speaker 2: you've got something going on there with Coach Jake Dickert.
- 36:43Speaker 2: When we come back, sounds of the weekend. We have
- 36:46Speaker 2: a Willie P.
- 36:46Speaker 1: Goal call.
- 36:48Speaker 2: We're going to hear from Carson Hosovar after his scrapparoo
- 36:52Speaker 2: on pit road with Ryan Blaney and Panther defenders. Give
- 36:55Speaker 2: love to Devin Lloyd, Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 37:16Speaker 1: Maloko stopping the dribble. Back to Pep Biel. Cross to
- 37:19Speaker 1: the middle. Came to the top of the box. Westwood.
- 37:22Speaker 1: Left side.
- 37:22Speaker 2: St.
- 37:23Speaker 3: Maximin.
- 37:23Speaker 1: Maxi into the area. Maxi with a shot. He scores!
- 37:28Speaker 1: Alan St.
- 37:29Speaker 5: Maximin has broken his seal in Major League Soccer!
- 37:34Speaker 1: A deadlock breaker from Maxi!
- 37:36Speaker 5: 2-1 Charlotte in the 71st minute!
- 37:40Speaker 1: There you go, P-Man. Huge goal from a ridiculous angle.
- 37:44Speaker 3: Not sure exactly how he finished from that angle. It
- 37:47Speaker 3: was a great team move as well. A lot of
- 37:49Speaker 3: guys involved, Bone, in getting that ball across, into the middle,
- 37:53Speaker 3: over to Maxie, and he did the rest. His first
- 37:56Speaker 3: goal was Charlotte FC.
- 37:57Speaker 1: As you heard there from the P-Man.
- 37:59Speaker 3: Great call by the P-Man. Good win on the road.
- 38:02Speaker 3: Charlotte FC, now Boney, is the sixth best team on
- 38:05Speaker 3: the road. I didn't even know that was legal. They've
- 38:08Speaker 3: got five road wins now, and they're not coming pretty.
- 38:11Speaker 3: We gave up 31 freaking shots. We were absolutely.
- 38:14Speaker 1: Dominated in the second half of that game. I ain't
- 38:17Speaker 1: going to lie to you.
- 38:18Speaker 3: But they have this thing where they find a way
- 38:21Speaker 3: to win.
- 38:22Speaker 1: They give up a lot of shots. A lot of
- 38:23Speaker 1: them are outside the box.
- 38:25Speaker 3: Kalina, I think, had like 1.3 goals prevented, which is
- 38:27Speaker 3: a huge number.
- 38:29Speaker 1: And I'm not acting like.
- 38:30Speaker 3: DC's great, but Charlotte FC's fourth in points, Bo, and
- 38:33Speaker 3: they're sitting there three points out of second now.
- 38:35Speaker 2: Hey, it doesn't matter how the other team is. On
- 38:37Speaker 2: the road, it matters, especially when they're juggling for seeding
- 38:41Speaker 2: the way they are. Matt, we've got Charlotte FC playing
- 38:43Speaker 2: well on the road. We've got the Hornets seventh in
- 38:46Speaker 2: the ESPN future power rankings, and we've got Bryce Young
- 38:50Speaker 2: and the— Panthers offense with Brad Inzik, Dave Canales, second
- 38:54Speaker 2: in the league right now in points per game.
- 38:56Speaker 1: Man, what a world. What a time to be alive.
- 38:58Speaker 1: It's all coming up. Queen City. It is, baby. It is.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Oh, man.
- 39:03Speaker 1: So anyway. What a ride. Dare I say, what a ride, Ron?
- 39:09Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.
- 39:10Speaker 2: I feel like maybe I feel like seventh in the
- 39:12Speaker 2: power rankings, Bone, might not be something to celebrate that great. No,
- 39:18Speaker 2: to be fair, not even the current power rankings.
- 39:20Speaker 1: No, the future. The future. In the year 2000. How
- 39:22Speaker 1: about that? In the year 2000.
- 39:24Speaker 3: How about, Boney, the report that the Hornets and. Hawks
- 39:30Speaker 3: are talking trade that would involve Dorian Finney-Smith going to
- 39:35Speaker 3: Atlanta and Buddy Heald coming.
- 39:36Speaker 1: Back to Charlotte? Interesting. We can't have enough shooters, baby.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Man, oh, man.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Bring it on. Bring it on.
- 39:42Speaker 2: I also heard that the Atlanta-Charlotte talking trade report Atlanta
- 39:47Speaker 2: wants the Huff football.
- 39:49Speaker 1: Team, and they want to send the Falcons back this way.
- 39:52Speaker 3: I heard they talked trade yesterday, and Atlanta said, no,
- 39:55Speaker 3: we'll just give you five footballs.
- 39:57Speaker 2: We don't need anything back in return. Anyway, the funniest was...
- 40:02Speaker 2: We almost Arthur blanked him.
- 40:03Speaker 3: Oh, God. Man, this feels good. And we're going to
- 40:08Speaker 3: talk Panthers here in a second. We're going to let
- 40:10Speaker 3: you hear a couple of Devin Lloyd's teammates rave about him.
- 40:13Speaker 3: But the Bristol situation needs a little bit of love
- 40:16Speaker 3: here because that felt like an old school... bristol race
- 40:20Speaker 3: um it was listen a lot of the short track
- 40:22Speaker 3: racing with this with this new car has not been
- 40:24Speaker 3: great that racing bone they had about four or five
- 40:27Speaker 3: cars in the mix late it was some great racing
- 40:32Speaker 3: and you obviously had the situation where blaney um uh
- 40:36Speaker 3: you know he was blocking He cleared, and it was
- 40:40Speaker 3: a tight clear of Hosovar sliding up. Hosovar then tries
- 40:43Speaker 3: to cross him over inside, and Blaney was trying to block,
- 40:46Speaker 3: and I don't know if you.
- 40:46Speaker 1: Want to block that dude.
- 40:48Speaker 3: And he went off Hosovar's bumper, and it ended Blaney's night,
- 40:51Speaker 3: maybe his championship hopes. Oh, by the way, Joey Logano,
- 40:55Speaker 3: Blaney's teammate, went from fourth to first while all this
- 40:58Speaker 3: shenanigans continued. was going on. Um, and he won the race,
- 41:02Speaker 3: Kyle Larson, the new points leader. I'm rather happy about that. Um,
- 41:05Speaker 3: but listen to Josevar because Blaney came looking for him
- 41:09Speaker 3: after the race bone. And, uh, it was Josevar who
- 41:14Speaker 3: threw the punches. Listen, uh, hit it, hit on a
- 41:16Speaker 3: couple of them.
- 41:17Speaker 1: Listen to this. I don't know.
- 41:18Speaker 8: It wasn't until about two seconds before they're like, Hey,
- 41:22Speaker 8: he might come over here. And then I saw him
- 41:24Speaker 8: and I was like, okay, he's moving pretty fast for
- 41:27Speaker 8: a convo. And then he grabbed me, and I was like, okay, well,
- 41:31Speaker 8: I'm not going to wait.
- 41:32Speaker 1: I've seen enough of these. I'm just going to start
- 41:35Speaker 1: swinging and see what happens. Caught him twice.
- 41:39Speaker 3: Then a crew member of Jose Barres basically knocked Bailey
- 41:43Speaker 3: down like he was playing linebacker.
- 41:45Speaker 1: Or not Bailey.
- 41:47Speaker 3: Bailey would be a little harder to knock down than Blaney.
- 41:50Speaker 3: I mean, Blaney, half of his weight is his mustache.
- 41:52Speaker 1: Give me the meat.
- 41:53Speaker 2: All right, so Blaney went flying. His mustache back weighs
- 41:56Speaker 2: 32 pounds. Blaney tried to get back at him. There
- 42:00Speaker 2: were crew guys in the way. That was Bristol, baby. Fit.
- 42:05Speaker 3: That was cool. I woke up cause I'm going to
- 42:07Speaker 3: be honest with you. I had on my phone. That
- 42:08Speaker 3: was like device six on Saturday night. I said, I'm
- 42:12Speaker 3: stopping this now because the last 200 laps I'm watching
- 42:15Speaker 3: in the morning, I'm waking up at 6.00 AM and
- 42:17Speaker 3: I'm watching this damn race.
- 42:19Speaker 1: And I was so happy. I did. That was vintage
- 42:23Speaker 1: Bristol fit dog.
- 42:24Speaker 5: Bristol Mac needed that moment. The night race needed that moment.
- 42:29Speaker 5: Short track racing needed that moment. With that being said,
- 42:34Speaker 5: Something has to be done about the 77 car, man. Like,
- 42:37Speaker 5: I don't know who needs to, who needs it's put
- 42:40Speaker 5: on the hero cape, but someone needs to put his ass.
- 42:43Speaker 1: On the wall.
- 42:43Speaker 4: Really?
- 42:44Speaker 1: And that was, that was far from his most egregious
- 42:47Speaker 1: to me. It doesn't matter.
- 42:49Speaker 3: He had to run and Blaney went down there. Like,
- 42:52Speaker 3: you know who you're blocking, bro. I like Blaney a lot.
- 42:55Speaker 3: I didn't think that was the greatest decision in the world.
- 42:58Speaker 1: I've been an anti-Blaney guy.
- 43:00Speaker 5: He's really starting to win me over this year with
- 43:02Speaker 5: his personality really coming off of the track.
- 43:04Speaker 1: He's going to be really happy to know that.
- 43:06Speaker 4: You are.
- 43:07Speaker 1: It's a Panther freaking Monday.
- 43:10Speaker 2: Go ahead.
- 43:10Speaker 5: And you're being impossible to work with. With that being said, Mack,
- 43:15Speaker 5: it's only a 52-point deficit, and Blaney said all the
- 43:18Speaker 5: right things.
- 43:19Speaker 1: He very well.
- 43:20Speaker 5: Could have cost him a championship with that decision.
- 43:22Speaker 1: Blaney also made a decision. I want to make that point.
- 43:25Speaker 3: All right, cool. I hope someone wrecks his ass. Yeah, listen,
- 43:32Speaker 3: he's annoying to me, too.
- 43:35Speaker 1: There's two things I'm looking for the rest of the
- 43:36Speaker 1: NASCAR season.
- 43:38Speaker 5: Make sure Denny doesn't win the championship and someone polices
- 43:41Speaker 5: a 77 car. That's all I have to look forward
- 43:43Speaker 5: to because my guy stinks.
- 43:45Speaker 1: My guy's done.
- 43:46Speaker 6: It's over.
- 43:46Speaker 1: Root for his teammate. Root for his teammate, Kyle Larson.
- 43:48Speaker 1: That won't happen. Root for his teammate.
- 43:50Speaker 2: I think Blaney Mac's been growing that mustache for protection
- 43:53Speaker 2: in case he gets in a fight because Josef Lahr
- 43:56Speaker 2: landed the punch, but all he got was stash.
- 44:01Speaker 1: It was built-in padding.
- 44:02Speaker 3: Like when you're sparring with someone and you hold those
- 44:04Speaker 3: pads up, that's basically what it was.
- 44:06Speaker 2: I know he connected, but, man, what a long windup
- 44:09Speaker 2: on the punch from Josavar. That reminds me of, like,
- 44:11Speaker 2: Mac's lanky arm. If Mac was a fighter, I could
- 44:13Speaker 2: see Mac having a long windup there. Like a 60s
- 44:16Speaker 2: pitcher or something. That's a big if. That is a
- 44:18Speaker 2: big if there.
- 44:19Speaker 1: Like a 60s pitcher. All right.
- 44:21Speaker 3: Let's go to the Carolina Panthers. Let's work ourselves to
- 44:26Speaker 3: the locker room after the game when Jalen Phillips is asked.
- 44:31Speaker 3: I mentioned this earlier. Listen to Darren Gant's question and
- 44:33Speaker 3: Jalen Phillips' response on the game that Devin Lloyd played.
- 44:37Speaker 4: I was young and I wasn't a Panthers fan seeing Luke,
- 44:39Speaker 4: but you're obviously seeing highlights and stuff. I mean, that's
- 44:42Speaker 4: probably Luke's best game, that best game. Who's to say?
- 44:45Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know. I've never, you know, anyways,
- 44:48Speaker 4: point being is it was an incredible performance. And, you know,
- 44:51Speaker 4: if you want to compare it to Luke, I think
- 44:53Speaker 4: his preparation and his just instinctive nature that he plays
- 44:58Speaker 4: with really definitely on par with, you know, things that
- 45:00Speaker 4: I've definitely seen from Luke. But, man, he's just, like
- 45:03Speaker 4: I said, a force to be reckoned with.
- 45:05Speaker 1: All right.
- 45:05Speaker 3: That was a mistake by me there. I did not
- 45:09Speaker 3: include the Darren Gant question. So Darren Gant asked him,
- 45:11Speaker 3: was it a Luke Keekly type game? I'm hoping everybody
- 45:14Speaker 3: could figure that out there. But it was, again, we're
- 45:19Speaker 3: not comparing. We're not saying Devin Lloyd is as good
- 45:21Speaker 3: as Luke Keekly. But for one day yesterday, that was
- 45:25Speaker 3: a game bone I would put up there with the
- 45:26Speaker 3: Luke great game. Somebody on Twitter was like, this is
- 45:29Speaker 3: Devin Lloyd's version of of the Luke Keighley Thanksgiving game.
- 45:33Speaker 1: And I think that's a good way of putting it.
- 45:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking it's in the pantheon of great
- 45:38Speaker 2: linebacker games. Think about Dan Morgan's historical Super Bowl tackle number, Mac,
- 45:43Speaker 2: where the number keeps growing.
- 45:44Speaker 1: Love you, Dan, but now he's up to... He had 25.
- 45:46Speaker 2: Now he's up to, I believe, 77 tackles in that game.
- 45:49Speaker 2: Keekly Thanksgiving. TD's had his moment. Now he's in. We're
- 45:53Speaker 2: two weeks into the Devin Lloyd experience, Mac, and he's
- 45:56Speaker 2: already joined the left. Sam Mills had a couple, the
- 45:59Speaker 2: IOT against Dallas, the Bubby Brister, the first win when
- 46:03Speaker 2: Bubby Brister shoveled past to him. There's a lot of
- 46:06Speaker 2: those linebacker moments, but Devin Lloyd's already put himself in
- 46:09Speaker 2: that discussion.
- 46:09Speaker 1: For those moments. What a freaking signing, man.
- 46:12Speaker 4: Yep.
- 46:13Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 46:14Speaker 2: When we come back on the Mac and Bone Show,
- 46:16Speaker 2: 7 o'clockers, it is time to talk Panthers Victory Monday.
- 46:22Speaker 2: How much better do fans feel now after the blowout yesterday?
- 46:25Speaker 2: And who deserves credit for the win? Mac, Bone, Fit, no!
- 46:29Speaker 2: Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ.
